Xaakinnada 9
1 Markaasaa Abiimeleg ina Yerubbacal tegey xagga Shekem iyo abtiyaashiis, oo wuu la hadlay iyagii iyo reerka awowgiis oo dhan, oo wuxuu ku yidhi,
Abimelech the son of Jerubbaal went to Shechem to his mother’s brothers, and spoke with them and with all the family of the house of his mother’s father, saying,
2 Waan idin baryayaaye, La hadla dadka Shekem oo dhan, oo bal weyddiiya, Kee baa idiin wanaagsan, in wiilasha Yerubbacal oo ah toddobaatan ay idiin wada taliyaan, mise in mid keliyahu idiin taliyo? Oo waxaad kaloo xusuusataan inaan ahay laftiinnii iyo hilibkiinnii.
“Please speak in the ears of all the men of Shechem, ‘Is it better for you that all the sons of Jerubbaal, who are seventy persons, rule over you, or that one rule over you?’ Remember also that I am your bone and your flesh.”
3 Markaasay abtiyaashiis ula hadleen dadkii Shekem oo dhan, oo waxay u sheegeen erayadiisii oo dhan; kolkaasay qalbiyadoodii u leexdeen inay Abiimeleg raacaan; waayo, waxay yidhaahdeen, Isagu waa walaalkeen.
His mother’s brothers spoke of him in the ears of all the men of Shechem all these words. Their hearts inclined to follow Abimelech; for they said, “He is our brother.”
4 Markaasay waxay isagii gurigii Bacal Beriid ka siiyeen toddobaatan xabbadood oo lacag ah, oo Abiimeleg wuxuu ku kiraystay ciyaalasuuq iyo waxmatarayaal isaga raacay.
They gave him seventy pieces of silver out of the house of Baal Berith, with which Abimelech hired vain and reckless fellows who followed him.
5 Markaasuu reerkii aabbihiis ugu tegey Coofraah, oo wuxuu isku dhagax dushiis ku laayay walaalihiis ilmo Yerubbacal oo ahaa toddobaatan qof; laakiinse garuddambayskii Yerubbacal oo ahaa Yootam ayaa hadhay, waayo, wuu dhuuntay.
He went to his father’s house at Ophrah, and killed his brothers the sons of Jerubbaal, being seventy persons, on one stone; but Jotham the youngest son of Jerubbaal was left, for he hid himself.
6 Markaasaa waxaa soo shiray oo isku soo ururay dadkii Shekem oo dhan iyo reer Millo oo dhan, oo intay tageen ayay Abiimeleg boqor ka dhigteen, oo waxay ku ag boqreen geedkii tiirkii ku yiil Shekem.
All the men of Shechem assembled themselves together with all the house of Millo, and went and made Abimelech king by the oak of the pillar that was in Shechem.
7 Oo markii taas loo sheegay Yootam ayuu tegey oo wuxuu isku taagay Buur Gerisiim dusheedii, oo intuu qayliyey ayuu codkiisii kor u qaaday oo yidhi, Bal i maqla, dadka reer Shekemow, in Ilaah idin maqlo.
When they told it to Jotham, he went and stood on the top of Mount Gerizim and lifted up his voice, cried out, and said to them, “Listen to me, you men of Shechem, that God may listen to you.
8 Waa baa dhirtu damacday inay boqor subkaan, markaasay geedsaytuun ku yidhaahdeen, Kaalay oo boqor noo noqo.
The trees set out to anoint a king over themselves. They said to the olive tree, ‘Reign over us.’
9 Laakiinse geedsaytuunkii wuxuu ku yidhi iyagii, Miyaan barwaaqadayda ka tagaa, tan lagu sharfa Ilaah iyo dadkaba, oo miyaan u kacaa inaan hore iyo dib uga lulmado geedaha dushooda?
“But the olive tree said to them, ‘Should I stop producing my oil, with which they honour God and man by me, and go to wave back and forth over the trees?’
10 Markaasay dhirtii ku yidhaahdeen geedberde, Kaalay oo boqor noo noqo.
“The trees said to the fig tree, ‘Come and reign over us.’
11 Laakiinse geedberdihii wuxuu ku yidhi, Miyaan ka tagaa macaankayga iyo midhahayga wanaagsan, oo miyaan u kacaa inaan hore iyo dib uga lulmado geedaha dushooda?
“But the fig tree said to them, ‘Should I leave my sweetness, and my good fruit, and go to wave back and forth over the trees?’
12 Markaasay dhirtii ku yidhaahdeen geedcanab, Kaalay oo boqor noo noqo.
“The trees said to the vine, ‘Come and reign over us.’
13 Markaasaa geedcanabkii wuxuu ku yidhi iyagii, Miyaan ka tagaa khamrigayga ka farxiya Ilaah iyo dadkaba, oo miyaan u kacaa inaan hore iyo dib uga lulmado geedaha dushooda?
“The vine said to them, ‘Should I leave my new wine, which cheers God and man, and go to wave back and forth over the trees?’
14 Markaasaa dhirtii oo dhammu waxay ku yidhaahdeen gocondho, Kaalay oo boqor noo noqo.
“Then all the trees said to the bramble, ‘Come and reign over us.’
15 Markaasaa gocondhadii waxay dhirtii ku tidhi, Haddaad daacad ii boqranaysaan, kaalaya oo hooskayga hadhsada; haddii kalese, dab ha ka soo baxo gocondhada oo ha laasto geedaha kedar la yidhaahdo oo Lubnaan.
“The bramble said to the trees, ‘If in truth you anoint me king over you, then come and take refuge in my shade; and if not, let fire come out of the bramble, and devour the cedars of Lebanon.’
16 Haddaba haddaad daacad iyo si qumman ku socoteen, markii aad boqrateen Abiimeleg, iyo haddaad daacad kula macaamilooteen Yerubbacal iyo reerkiisii, oo aad u samayseen wixii uu idinka istaahilay;
“Now therefore, if you have dealt truly and righteously, in that you have made Abimelech king, and if you have dealt well with Jerubbaal and his house, and have done to him according to the deserving of his hands
17 (waayo, aabbahay idinkuu idiin diriray oo aawadiin buu naftiisii u biimeeyey, oo wuxuu idinka soo samatabbixiyey gacantii reer Midyaan;
(for my father fought for you, risked his life, and delivered you out of the hand of Midian;
18 oo idinku maanta waxaad ku kacdeen reerkii aabbahay, oo waxaad isku dhagax ku layseen wiilashiisii oo ah toddobaatan qof, oo waxaad dadkii Shekem boqor uga dhigteen Abiimeleg oo ah wiilkii addoontiisa, maxaa yeelay, isagu waa walaalkiin; )
and you have risen up against my father’s house today and have slain his sons, seventy persons, on one stone, and have made Abimelech, the son of his female servant, king over the men of Shechem, because he is your brother);
19 haddaba haddaad maanta daacad iyo si qumman ula macaamilooteen Yerubbacal iyo reerkiisii, de markaas Abiimeleg ku reyreeya oo isna ha idinku reyreeyo;
if you then have dealt truly and righteously with Jerubbaal and with his house today, then rejoice in Abimelech, and let him also rejoice in you;
20 haddii kalese, dab ha ka soo baxo Abiimeleg, oo ha laasto dadka Shekem iyo reer Millo; oo dadka Shekem iyo reer Millona dab ha ka soo baxo, oo ha laasto Abiimeleg.
but if not, let fire come out from Abimelech and devour the men of Shechem and the house of Millo; and let fire come out from the men of Shechem and from the house of Millo and devour Abimelech.”
21 Markaasaa Yootam orday oo cararay, oo wuxuu tegey Bi'ir, oo halkaasuu joogay cabsidii uu walaalkiis Abiimeleg ka qabay aawadeed.
Jotham ran away and fled, and went to Beer and lived there, for fear of Abimelech his brother.
22 Oo Abiimelegna saddex sannadood buu amiir u ahaa reer binu Israa'iil.
Abimelech was prince over Israel three years.
23 Oo Ilaahna dadkii Shekem iyo Abiimeleg dhexdooda wuxuu u soo diray jinni; oo dadkii Shekemna way khiyaaneeyeen Abiimeleg,
Then God sent an evil spirit between Abimelech and the men of Shechem; and the men of Shechem dealt treacherously with Abimelech,
24 in dulmigii lagu sameeyey toddobaatankii wiil oo Yerubbacal uu yimaado, oo dhiiggoodii la saaro walaalkood Abiimeleg oo iyaga dilay, iyo dadkii reer Shekem oo gacmihiisa xoojiyey inuu laayo walaalihiis.
that the violence done to the seventy sons of Jerubbaal might come, and that their blood might be laid on Abimelech their brother who killed them, and on the men of Shechem who strengthened his hands to kill his brothers.
25 Oo dadkii reer Shekemna waxay isagii buuraha dushooda u saareen rag gaadmo ah, oo iyana waxay dhaceen wax alla wixii jidkaas agtooda ah soo maray; oo taas waxaa loo sheegay Abiimeleg.
The men of Shechem set an ambush for him on the tops of the mountains, and they robbed all who came along that way by them; and Abimelech was told about it.
26 Markaasaa Gacal ina Cebed ayaa yimid isagoo la socda walaalihiis, oo wuxuu tegey Shekem; oo dadkii reer Shekemna way isku halleeyeen isagii.
Gaal the son of Ebed came with his brothers and went over to Shechem; and the men of Shechem put their trust in him.
27 Markaasay beeraha tageen, oo canabkoodii soo gurteen, oo waxay ku tunteen midhihii canabka, wayna iideen, oo waxay galeen gurigii ilaahood, oo wax bay cuneen oo cabbeen, oo waxay caayeen Abiimeleg.
They went out into the field, harvested their vineyards, trod the grapes, celebrated, and went into the house of their god and ate and drank, and cursed Abimelech.
28 Markaasaa Gacal ina Cebed yidhi, Abiimeleg waa ayo? Shekemna waa ayo? Maxaynu ugu adeegna? Sow isagu ma aha ina Yerubbacal? Sirkaalkiisuna sow ma aha Sebul? U adeega dadkii reer Xamoor oo ahaa Shekem aabbihiis; laakiinse maxaynu ugu adeegnaa isaga?
Gaal the son of Ebed said, “Who is Abimelech, and who is Shechem, that we should serve him? Isn’t he the son of Jerubbaal? Isn’t Zebul his officer? Serve the men of Hamor the father of Shechem, but why should we serve him?
29 Haddii Ilaah dadkan gacantayda hoos gelin lahaa, ogaada, Abiimeleg waan eryi lahaaye. Kolkaasuu ku yidhi Abiimeleg, Ciidankaaga soo badso oo soo bax.
I wish that this people were under my hand! Then I would remove Abimelech.” He said to Abimelech, “Increase your army and come out!”
30 Markii Sebul oo ahaa taliyihii magaaladu maqlay erayadii Gacal ina Cebed ayuu aad u cadhooday.
When Zebul the ruler of the city heard the words of Gaal the son of Ebed, his anger burnt.
31 Markaasuu hoos ahaan wargeeyayaal ugu diray Abiimeleg, oo wuxuu ku yidhi, Bal eeg, Gacal ina Cebed iyo walaalihiis ayaa Shekem yimid, oo magaaladiina wuu kugu diray.
He sent messengers to Abimelech craftily, saying, “Behold, Gaal the son of Ebed and his brothers have come to Shechem; and behold, they incite the city against you.
32 Haddaba adiga iyo dadka kula jiraaba habeennimo soo kaca oo duurka ku soo dhuunta.
Now therefore, go up by night, you and the people who are with you, and lie in wait in the field.
33 Oo subaxda markay qorraxdu soo baxdo waa inaad aroor hore soo kacdaa oo magaalada weerartaa; oo bal eeg, markii isaga iyo dadka la jiraa ay dagaal kuugu soo baxaan, markaasaad ku samayn doontaa sida kuu suurtowda.
It shall be that in the morning, as soon as the sun is up, you shall rise early and rush on the city. Behold, when he and the people who are with him come out against you, then may you do to them as you shall find occasion.”
34 Markaasaa Abiimeleg iyo dadkii la jiray oo dhammu habeennimo kaceen, oo waxay soo gaadeen Shekem, iyagoo afar guuto ah.
Abimelech rose up, and all the people who were with him, by night, and they laid wait against Shechem in four companies.
35 Markaasaa Gacal ina Cebed baxay, oo wuxuu istaagay iridda magaalada laga soo galo; oo Abiimeleg iyo dadkii la jirayna waxay ka soo kaceen gaadmadii.
Gaal the son of Ebed went out, and stood in the entrance of the gate of the city. Abimelech rose up, and the people who were with him, from the ambush.
36 Oo Gacalna markuu arkay dadkii wuxuu Sebul ku yidhi, Bal eeg, dad baa buuraha dushooda ka soo degaya. Sebulna wuxuu ku yidhi isagii, War waxaad arkaysaa oo dad moodaysaa buuraha hooskooda.
When Gaal saw the people, he said to Zebul, “Behold, people are coming down from the tops of the mountains.” Zebul said to him, “You see the shadows of the mountains as if they were men.”
37 Oo Gacal haddana wuu hadlay oo wuxuu yidhi, Bal day, dad baa dhulka dhexdiisa soo socda, oo guutona waxay soo ag socotaa geedkii Mecooneniim.
Gaal spoke again and said, “Behold, people are coming down by the middle of the land, and one company comes by the way of the oak of Meonenim.”
38 Markaasaa Sebul wuxuu ku yidhi isagii, Meeh afkaagii aad ku tidhi, Waa ayo Abiimeleg oo maxaynu ugu adeegnaa? Sow kanu ma aha dadkii aad quudhsatay? Haddaba waan ku baryayaaye, u bax oo la dirir.
Then Zebul said to him, “Now where is your mouth, that you said, ‘Who is Abimelech, that we should serve him?’ Isn’t this the people that you have despised? Please go out now and fight with them.”
39 Oo Gacalna intuu baxay ayuu hor maray dadkii reer Shekem, oo wuxuu la diriray Abiimeleg.
Gaal went out before the men of Shechem, and fought with Abimelech.
40 Oo Abiimelegna wuu eryooday Gacal, oo isna wuu cararay, oo dad badan oo dhaawac ah ayaa kaga dhacay tan iyo iridda magaalada laga galo.
Abimelech chased him, and he fled before him, and many fell wounded, even to the entrance of the gate.
41 Oo Abiimelegna wuxuu degay Aruumaah, Sebulna wuu eryay Gacal iyo walaalihiisba, oo wuu u diiday inay Shekem degganaadaan.
Abimelech lived at Arumah; and Zebul drove out Gaal and his brothers, that they should not dwell in Shechem.
42 Oo subaxdii dambe ayaa dadkii duurka tegey oo ay Abiimeleg u sheegeen wixii dhacay.
On the next day, the people went out into the field; and they told Abimelech.
43 Markaasuu dadkii kaxaystay, oo intuu u kala qaybiyey saddex guuto ayuu duurka ku gaaday; markaasuu intuu wax fiiriyey ayuu arkay dadkii magaalada ka soo baxayay oo intuu ku kacay ayuu laayay.
He took the people and divided them into three companies, and laid wait in the field; and he looked, and behold, the people came out of the city. So, he rose up against them and struck them.
44 Markaasay Abiimeleg iyo guutooyinkii la jiray hore u soo rooreen, oo waxay istaageen iriddii magaalada laga soo geli jiray; oo labadii guutona waxay ku yaaceen dadkii duurka joogay oo dhan, wayna wada laayeen.
Abimelech and the companies that were with him rushed forward and stood in the entrance of the gate of the city; and the two companies rushed on all who were in the field and struck them.
45 Oo Abiimelegna maalintaas oo dhan wuxuu la dirirayay magaaladii; oo wuu qabsaday magaaladii, oo dadkii ku jirayna wuu wada laayay; oo magaaladiina wuu dumiyey, wuxuuna ku daadiyey cusbo.
Abimelech fought against the city all that day; and he took the city and killed the people in it. He beat down the city and sowed it with salt.
46 Oo dadkii ku jiray munaaraddii Shekem markay taas maqleen, ayay galeen qalcaddii ku tiil gurigii ilaahooda Beriid la odhan jiray.
When all the men of the tower of Shechem heard of it, they entered into the stronghold of the house of Elberith.
47 Markaasaa Abiimeleg waxaa loo sheegay in dadkii ku jiray munaaraddii Shekem oo dhammu ay isku urursan yihiin.
Abimelech was told that all the men of the tower of Shechem were gathered together.
48 Markaasaa Abiimeleg wuxuu fuulay Buur Salmoon, isagii iyo dadkii la jiray oo dhammuba; kolkaasaa Abiimeleg wuxuu gacanta ku qabsaday faas, oo wuxuu dhirtii ka soo jaray laan, oo intuu kor u qaatay ayuu garbaha soo saaray, oo dadkii la jirayna wuxuu ku yidhi, Dhaqsada, oo wixii aad igu aragteen anoo samaynaya u sameeya sidii aan u sameeyey.
Abimelech went up to Mount Zalmon, he and all the people who were with him; and Abimelech took an axe in his hand, and cut down a bough from the trees, and took it up, and laid it on his shoulder. Then he said to the people who were with him, “What you have seen me do, make haste, and do as I have done!”
49 Markaasaa dadkii nin waluba wuxuu soo jaray laantiisii, oo waxay soo raaceen Abiimeleg, oo intay laamihii qalcaddii ku ag tuuleen ayay haddana dab sudheen, oo sidaasay dadkii munaaraddii Shekem joogay oo dhammu u wada le'deen; oo waxay ahaayeen in ku dhow kun qof oo rag iyo dumarba leh.
All the people likewise each cut down his bough, followed Abimelech, and put them at the base of the stronghold, and set the stronghold on fire over them, so that all the people of the tower of Shechem died also, about a thousand men and women.
50 Oo haddana Abiimeleg wuxuu tegey Teebees, oo wuxuu degay meel ka soo hor jeedda, markaasuu qabsaday.
Then Abimelech went to Thebez and encamped against Thebez, and took it.
51 Laakiinse magaalada waxaa ku dhex tiil munaarad xoog badan. Markaasay halkaas ku carareen rag iyo dumarba, iyo kulli wixii magaalada joogay oo dhan, oo intay isku soo xidheen ayay kor u fuuleen munaaradda saqafkeedii.
But there was a strong tower within the city, and all the men and women of the city fled there, and shut themselves in, and went up to the roof of the tower.
52 Markaasaa Abiimeleg munaaraddii yimid, wuuna la diriray, oo wuxuu u dhowaaday iridda munaaradda inuu dab ku gubo.
Abimelech came to the tower and fought against it, and came near to the door of the tower to burn it with fire.
53 Naag baa kor dhagaxshiid kaga soo tuurtay Abiimeleg madaxiisii, oo burburisay dhakadiisii.
A certain woman cast an upper millstone on Abimelech’s head, and broke his skull.
54 Markaasuu haddiiba u yeedhay ninkii dhallinyarada ahaa, oo hubka u siday, oo wuxuu ku yidhi, War dadku yaanu i odhan, Naag baa dishaye, seeftaada la soo bax oo i dil. Markaasaa ninkiisii dhallinyarada ahaa seef ka mudhbixiyey, kolkaasuu dhintay.
Then he called hastily to the young man, his armour bearer, and said to him, “Draw your sword and kill me, that men not say of me, ‘A woman killed him.’ His young man thrust him through, and he died.”
55 Dadkii reer binu Israa'iilna markay arkeen inuu Abiimeleg dhintay ayaa nin waluba meeshiisii tegey.
When the men of Israel saw that Abimelech was dead, they each departed to his place.
56 Oo sidaasaa Ilaah Abiimeleg xumaantii uu aabbihiis ku sameeyey uga jeebay, waayo, wuxuu laayay toddobaatan walaalihiis ah:
Thus God repaid the wickedness of Abimelech, which he did to his father in killing his seventy brothers;
57 oo dadkii reer Shekem xumaantoodii oo dhan Ilaah baa ka jeebay madaxoodii, oo waxaa ku soo degay habaarkii Yootam ina Yerubbacal.
and God repaid all the wickedness of the men of Shechem on their heads; and the curse of Jotham the son of Jerubbaal came on them.
