Xaakinnada 3

1 Haddaba kuwanu waa quruumihii Rabbigu u daayay inuu reer binu Israa'iil ku tijaabiyo, oo waxay ahaayeen in alla intii aan ogayn dagaalladii reer Kancaan oo dhan;

Now, these, are the nations which Yahweh left, that he might, by them, put Israel to the proof, —all who had not known any of the wars of Canaan;

2 inay reer binu Israa'iil ogaadaan oo uu iyaga baro dagaal ayan waxba ka aqoon jirin.

that the generations of the sons of Israel might certainly get to know, by being taught to make war, —such, at least, as aforetime knew nothing thereof: —

3 Oo kuwaasu waxay ahaayeen shantii amiir oo reer Falastiin, iyo reer Kancaan oo dhan, iyo reer Siidoon, iyo reer Xiwi, oo degganaa Buur Lubnaan, iyo tan iyo Buur Bacal Xermoon, iyo tan iyo meesha laga galo Xamaad.

five lords of the Philistines, and all the Canaanites, and the Zidonians, and the Hivites dwelling in Mount Lebanon, —from Mount Baal-hermon as far as the entering in of Hamath.

4 Oo kuwaas waxaa loo daayay in reer binu Israa'iil lagu tijaabiyo, in la ogaado bal inay dhegaysanayaan amarradii Rabbiga oo uu ku amray awowayaashood oo uu Muuse soo faray iyo in kale.

So then [these] were [left], that, by them, he might put Israel to the proof, —to know whether they would hearken unto the commandments of Yahweh which he commanded their fathers by the hand of Moses.

5 Oo reer binu Israa'iil waxay dhex degeen reer Kancaan, kuwaas oo ahaa reer Xeed, iyo reer Amor, iyo reer Feris, iyo reer Xiwi, iyo reer Yebuus.

And thus, the sons of Israel, dwelt in the midst of the Canaanites, —the Hittites, and the Amorites, and the Perizzites, and the Hivites, and the Jebusites;

6 Oo gabdhahoodiina way ka guursadeen, oo kuwoodiina wiilashoodii bay u guuriyeen, oo waxay u adeegeen ilaahyadoodii.

and took their daughters to be their wives, their own daughters moreover, gave they unto their sons, and they served their gods.

7 Oo reer binu Israa'iilna waxay sameeyeen wax Rabbiga hortiisa ku xun, oo Rabbiga Ilaahooda ahna way illoobeen, wayna u adeegeen Bacaliimkii iyo geedihii Asheeraah.

Thus did the sons of Israel the thing that was wicked in the sight of Yahweh, and forgat Yahweh their God, —and served the Baals and the Asherahs.

8 Sidaas daraaddeed cadhadii Rabbigu aad bay ugu kululaatay reer binu Israa'iil, oo wuxuu iyagii ka iibiyey boqorkii Mesobotamiya oo ahaa Kuushan Rishcaatayim; oo reer binu Israa'iil waxay Kuushan Rishcaatayim u adeegayeen siddeed sannadood.

Then kindled the anger of Yahweh upon Israel, and he sold them into the hand of Chushan-rishathaim, king of Mesopotamia, —and the sons of Israel served Chushan-rishathaim, eight years.

9 Oo markii reer binu Israa'iil ay Rabbiga u qayshadeen, Rabbigu wuxuu reer binu Israa'iil u kiciyey badbaadiye, kaasoo badbaadiyey, oo wuxuu ahaa Cotnii'eel ina Qenas oo ahaa Kaaleeb walaalkiisii yaraa.

And the sons of Israel made outcry unto Yahweh, so Yahweh raised up a saviour unto the sons of Israel, who saved them, —even Othniel son of Kenaz, Caleb’s younger brother.

10 Oo kaas waxaa ku soo degay Ruuxa Rabbiga, oo wuxuu xukumi jiray reer binu Israa'iil. Dagaal buuna u baxay, oo Rabbiguna wuxuu gacantiisii u geliyey boqorkii Mesobotamiya oo ahaa Kuushan Rishcaatayim, oo isna wuu ka gacan sarreeyey Kuushan Rishcaatayim.

And the Spirit of Yahweh came upon him, and he judged Israel, and went out to war, and Yahweh delivered into his hand, Chushan-rishathaim, king of Syria, —and his hand prevailed over Chushan-rishathaim.

11 Markaasaa dalkii xasilloonaa afartan sannadood. Oo Cotnii'eel ina Qenas wuu dhintay.

And the land had rest forty years, —and Othniel son of Kenaz, died.

12 Oo reer binu Israa'iil mar kalay sameeyeen wax Rabbiga hortiisa ku xun; markaasaa Rabbigu wuxuu xoog u yeelay oo reer binu Israa'iil ku diray boqorkii reer Moo'aab oo ahaa Cegloon, maxaa yeelay, waxay sameeyeen wax Rabbiga hortiisa ku xun.

And the sons of Israel again did the thing that was wicked, in the sight of Yahweh, —and Yahweh emboldened Eglon, king of Moab, against Israel, because they did the thing that was wicked in the sight of Yahweh;

13 Oo isna wuxuu soo urursaday reer Cammoon iyo reer Camaaleq; kolkaasuu intuu tegey laayay reer binu Israa'iil, oo waxay qabsadeen magaaladii lahayd geedo timireedka.

and he gathered unto him, the sons of Ammon, and Amalek, —and came and smote Israel, and took possession of the city of palm-trees.

14 Oo reer binu Israa'iil waxay boqorkii reer Moo'aab oo Cegloon ahaa u adeegayeen siddeed iyo toban sannadood.

So the sons of Israel served Eglon king of Moab, eighteen years.

15 Laakiinse markii reer binu Israa'iil ay Rabbiga u qayshadeen, Rabbigu wuxuu u kiciyey badbaadiye, kaasoo ahaa Eehuud ina Geeraa, oo reer Benyaamiin, oo ahaa nin gurran. Isaga ayay reer binu Israa'iil hadiyad ugu soo dhiibeen Cegloon kii ahaa boqorkii reer Moo'aab.

And the sons of Israel made outcry unto Yahweh, and Yahweh raised up unto them a saviour, Ehud son of Gera, a Benjamite, a man left-handed, —and the sons of Israel sent, by his hand, a present, unto Eglon king of Moab.

16 Oo Eehuudna wuxuu samaystay seef laba af leh, oo dhererkeedu yahay dhudhun, oo wuxuu ku xidhay meel dharkiisa ka hoosaysa oo ah bowdadiisa midig.

So Ehud made himself a sword which had two edges, a cubit in length, —and girded it under his raiment, upon his right thigh.

17 Oo wuxuu hadiyaddii u dhiibay boqorkii reer Moo'aab oo ahaa Cegloon; Cegloonna wuxuu ahaa nin aad u buuran.

So he offered the present unto Eglon, king of Moab, —now, Eglon, was an exceedingly fat man.

18 Oo markuu dhammeeyey bixintii hadiyadda ayuu diray dadkii hadiyadda siday.

And so it was, when he had made an end of offering the present, that he sent away the people who had been bearing the present;

19 Laakiinse Eehuud wuxuu ka soo noqday dhagaxyadii qorqornaa Gilgaal agteeda, oo wuxuu yidhi, Boqorow, anigu waxaan kuu wadaa farriin qarsoon. Markaasuu yidhi, Iska aamus. Oo dadkii hareerihiisa taagnaa oo dhammuna dibadday uga baxeen isagii.

but, he himself, turned back from the images that were by Gilgal, and said, A secret word, have I, unto thee, O king! And he said—Silence! Thereupon went out from his presence all who had been standing near him.

20 Markaasaa Eehuud u yimid isagii; oo isna wuxuu keligiis fadhiyey qowladdii uu ku laydhsan jiray, markaasaa Eehuud wuxuu ku yidhi, Waxaan farriin kaaga wadaa Ilaah. Markaasuu ka soo kacay kursigiisii.

And, Ehud, came in unto him, he, having been sitting in a summer parlour, which he had for himself, alone, and Ehud said, A divine word, have I, unto thee. So he arose from off his seat.

21 Oo Eehuudna wuxuu soo bixiyey gacantiisii bidix, oo wuxuu seeftii kala soo baxay dhinaca bowdadiisii midig, markaasuu Cegloon caloosha kaga muday,

And Ehud put forth his left hand, and took the sword from off his right thigh, —and thrust it into his body;

22 oo xataa daabkiina waa galay afkii dabadiis, oo seefta afkeediina waxaa qariyey xaydhii, waayo, seeftii kama uu soo bixin calooshiisii; oo uus baa ka yimid.

and, the handle also, went in after the blade, and the flesh closed upon the blade, for he withdrew not the sword out of his body, —and he came out into the ante-chamber.

23 Markaasaa Eehuud wuxuu u baxay xagga qolqolka, oo uu soo xidhay qowladda albaabbadeedii, wuuna qufulay.

And, when Ehud came out into the porch, he closed the doors of the parlour upon him, and bolted them.

24 Haddaba markuu tegey waxaa yimid addoommadii Cegloon, markaasay intay wax fiiriyeen arkeen albaabbadii qowladda oo qufulan; kolkaasay waxay isyidhaahdeen, Hubaal wuu isku deday qowladdiisa uu ku laydhsado.

When, he, had come out, his servants, went in, and looked, and lo! the doors of the parlour were bolted, —so they said, Surely he covereth his feet, in the summer chamber.

25 Oo way sugeen ilaa ay isla yaabeen; oo bal eeg isna albaabbadii qowladda ma uu furin, sidaas daraaddeed furahay qaadeen oo albaabbaday fureen, oo markaasay arkeen sayidkoodii oo dhulka ku dhacay oo meyd ah.

But, though they tarried a long time, yet lo! he opened not the doors of the parlour, —so they took the key, and opened [them], when lo! their lord, fallen to the ground dead.

26 Eehuudna waa baxsaday intay sugayeen, oo wuxuu dhaafay dhagaxyadii qorqornaa, oo wuxuu u fakaday xagga Seciiraah.

But, Ehud, escaped while they delayed, —yea, he, passed the images, and escaped into Seirah.

27 Oo markuu yimid dalkii buuraha lahaa oo reer Efrayim ayuu afuufay buun, oo reer binu Israa'iilna isagay kala dhaadhaceen dalkii buuraha lahaa, oo isna wuu hor socday.

And so it was, when he came, that he blew with a horn, throughout the hill country of Ephraim, —and the sons of Israel came down with him, out of the hill country, he, being before them.

28 Oo wuxuu ku yidhi, I soo raaca, waayo, Rabbigu gacantiinnuu soo geliyey reer Moo'aab oo cadaawayaashiinnii ah. Oo iyana isagay ka daba dhaadhaceen, oo waxay reer Moo'aab ka qabsadeen meeshii webiga Urdun laga gudbi jiray, oo ninna uma ay oggolaan inuu ka gudbo.

And he said unto them—Come down after me, for Yahweh hath delivered your enemies, the Moabites, into your hand. So they came down after him, and captured the fords of the Jordan, towards Moab, and suffered not a man to pass over.

29 Oo markaasay reer Moo'aab ka laayeen rag toban kun ku dhow, kuwaas oo ahaa kuwo xoog wada leh, oo xataa nin keliyuhu kama baxsan.

And they smote of Moab, at that time, about ten thousand men, every one a mighty man, and every one a man of valour, —and, there escaped not a man.

30 Sidaasay reer Moo'aab ku hoos galeen reer binu Israa'iil; dalkiina wuu xasilloonaa siddeetan sannadood.

And Moab was subdued on that day, under the hand of Israel. And the land had rest eighty years, and Ehud judged them until his death.

31 Oo isagii ka dibna waxaa kacay Shamgar ina Canaad, kaasoo reer Falastiin lix boqol oo nin kaga laayay usha dibida lagu shuqeeyo, oo isaguna reer Israa'iil wuu badbaadiyey.

And, after him, was Shamgar, son of Anath, who smote of the Philistines, six hundred men, with an ox-goad, —and, he also, saved Israel.
