< Nexemyaah 13 >
1 Oo maalintaas ayay kitaabkii Muuse akhriyeen iyadoo dadkii maqlayo; oo waxaa laga helay oo ku qornaa inayan shirka Ilaah weligood soo gelin mid reer Cammoon ah iyo mid reer Moo'aab ah toona;
On that day there was read in the book of Moses before the ears of the people; and there was found written therein, that no 'Ammonite or Moabite should come into the congregation of God for ever;
2 maxaa yeelay, iyagu reer binu Israa'iil kalama ayan hor iman cunto iyo biyo toona, laakiinse waxay u soo kiraysteen Balcaam inuu habaaro aawadeed, habase ahaatee Ilaaheennu habaarkii wuxuu u beddelay duco.
Because they had not met the children of Israel with bread and with water, but had hired Bil'am against them, that he should curse them; although our God had changed the curse into a blessing.
3 Oo waxay noqotay markay sharcigii maqleen inay reer binu Israa'iil ka sooceen dadkii isku qasnaa oo dhan.
And it tame to pass, when they had heard the law, that they separated all the alien mixture from Israel.
4 Oo waxyaalahaas ka hor wadaadkii Eliyaashiib oo loo doortay inuu madax u ahaado qolalka guriga Ilaaheenna ayaa xidhiidh la yeeshay Toobiyaah,
And before this, Elyashib the priest, appointed over the chambers of the house of our God, and a near [of kin] unto Tobiyah,
5 oo wuxuu isagii u hagaajiyey qowlad weyn oo waagii hore la dhigi jiray qurbaannada hadhuudhka, iyo fooxa, iyo weelasha, iyo meeltobnaadyada hadhuudhka iyo khamriga iyo saliidda, oo amar lagu siin jiray kuwa reer Laawi, iyo kuwii gabayaaga ahaa, iyo irid-dhawryada, iyo qurbaannadii kor loo qaadi jiray oo la siin jiray wadaaddada.
Had prepared for him a large chamber, where they had laid in former times the meat-offerings, the frankincense, and the vessels, and the tithes of the corn, the new wine, and the oil, which was ordained for the Levites, and the singers, and the gatekeepers, and the heave-offering of the priests.
6 Laakiinse waagaas oo dhan anigu Yeruusaalem ma aanan joogin, waayo, sannaddii soddon iyo labaad oo boqorkii Baabuloon ee Artaxshasta ahaa ayaan u tegey boqorka, oo maalmo yar dabadood ayaan boqorka fasax weyddiistay.
But during all this I was not at Jerusalem; for in the two and thirtieth year of Artaxerxes the king of Babylon I went back unto the king, and after the lapse of some time I obtained by request [leave] of the king;
7 Markaasaan Yeruusaalem imid oo waxaan gartay sharkii uu Eliyaashiib u sameeyey Toobiyaah markuu qowlad uga diyaarshay barxadihii guriga Ilaah.
And I came to Jerusalem, and perceived the evil that Elyashib had done for Tobiyah, in preparing for him a chamber in the courts of the house of God.
8 Haddaba taasu aad bay ii murugaysay, sidaas daraaddeed qowladdii dibaddaan uga wada tuuray alaabtii guriga Toobiyaah oo dhan.
And it displeased me greatly: wherefore I cast forth all the household vessels of Tobiyah away out of the chamber.
9 Markaasaan amar bixiyey oo qolalkii waa la nadiifiyey; oo halkaasaan mar kale ku soo celiyey weelashii gurigii Ilaah, iyo qurbaannadii hadhuudhka, iyo fooxii.
And I gave the order, whereupon they cleansed the chambers; and I had brought thither again the vessels of the house of God, with the meat-offering and the frankincense.
10 Oo haddana waxaan kaloo gartay inaan kuwii reer Laawi qaybahoodii la siin, oo sidaas daraaddeed kuwii reer Laawi iyo kuwii gabayaaga ahaa oo shuqulka samayn jirayba way carareen oo mid waluba beertiisii buu tegey.
And I perceived that the portions of the Levites had not been given [them]: so that the Levites and the singers, that used to do the work, were fled every one to his field.
11 Markaasaan taliyayaashii la diriray oo waxaan ku idhi, War maxaa guriga Ilaah looga tegey? Kolkaasaan iyagii soo wada ururiyey oo meeshoodii ku celiyey.
Then contended I with the rulers, and said, Why hath the house of God become forsaken? And I gathered them together, and placed them on their posts.
12 Markaasaa dadka dalka Yahuudah oo dhammu waxay qolalkii khasnadaha soo geliyeen meeltobnaadyadii hadhuudhka iyo kuwii khamriga iyo kuwii saliiddaba.
And all Judah brought the tithe of the corn and the new wine and the oil unto the treasuries.
13 Oo qolalkii khasnadaha waxaan madax uga dhigay khasnajiyo, oo waxay ahaayeen wadaadkii Shelemyaah ahaa, iyo karraanigii Saadooq ahaa, oo reer Laawina waxaa kaga jiray Fedaayaah, oo waxaa ku xigay Xaanaan ina Sakuur, oo ahaa ina Matanyaah, waayo, waxaa lagu tiriyey inay aamin yihiin, oo shaqadooduna waxay ahayd inay walaalahood wax u qaybiyaan.
And I appointed receivers over the treasuries, Shelemyah the priest and Zadok the scribe, and Pedayah of the Levites; and with them acted Chanan the son of Zaccur, the son of Matthanyah; for they were accounted as faithful, and it was their duty to make a distribution among their brethren.
14 Ilaahayow, haddaba bal taas daraaddeed ii xusuuso, oo ha tirtirin falimahaygii wanaagsanaa oo aan u qabtay gurigaaga iyo waxyaalihii la dhawri lahaa.
Remember me, O my God, concerning this, and wipe not out my pious deeds which I have done for the house of my God, and for those that had charge of it.
15 Oo waagaas waxaan dalka Yahuudah ku arkay kuwo maalinta Sabtida macsarada canabka ku tumanaya, oo xidhmooyin soo ururinaya, oo dameerro raraya, iyo weliba khamri iyo canab, iyo berde iyo rar cayn kasta ah oo Yeruusaalem la soo gelinaya maalinta sabtida; oo anna iyagii waan uga digay maalintii ay cuntada iibiyeen.
In those days I saw in Judah some treading wine-presses on the sabbath, and bringing in sheaves, and lading burdens on asses, as also wine, grapes and figs, and all manner of burdens, which they brought into Jerusalem on the sabbath day; and I warned them on the day whereon they sold provisions.
16 Oo halkaas waxaa kaloo degganaa dad reer Turos ah oo keeni jiray kalluun iyo alaab cayn kasta ah, oo maalinta ayay ka iibin jireen dadka dalka Yahuudah iyo Yeruusaalem gudaheeda.
Also the men of Tyre [that] dwelt therein brought fish and all kinds of wares, and sold [them] on the sabbath unto the children of Judah and in Jerusalem.
17 Markaasaan la diriray kuwii gobta ahaa oo dalka Yahuudah oo waxaan ku idhi, War waa maxay waxan sharka ah oo aad samaysaan oo aad ku nijaasaysaan maalinta sabtida ah?
Then I contended with the nobles of Judah, and said unto them, What evil thing is this which ye are doing, and profaning [thereby] the sabbath day?
18 War sow awowayaashiin saasoo kale ma yeelin, sow Ilaah belaayadan oo dhan taas aawadeed inooguma soo dejin innaga iyo magaaladaba? Oo weliba markaad sabtida nijaasaysaan waxaad reer binu Israa'iil ku soo dejisaan cadho kale oo badan.
Did not your fathers act thus, wherefore our God brought over us all this evil, and over this city? and ye bring yet more wrath over Israel by profaning the sabbath.
19 Oo sabtida ka hor markii irdihii Yeruusaalem soo madoobaanayeen, ayaan amray in albaabbada la xidho, oo waxaan kaloo amray inaan la furin jeeray sabtidu dhammaato; oo qaar midiidinnadaydii ah ayaan irdihii waardiye uga dhigay inaan maalinta sabtida waxba rar la soo gelin.
And it came to pass, that, when the shadows were lengthened in the gates of Jerusalem before the sabbath, I gave the order, whereupon the gates were locked, and I ordered that they should not be opened till after the sabbath: and some of my young men did I place at the gates, that there should be brought in no burden on the sabbath-day.
20 Haddaba baayacmushtariyaashii iyo kuwii alaab cayn kasta iibin jiray mar iyo laba ayay Yeruusaalem dibaddeeda u hoydeen.
But the merchants and sellers of all kinds of wares lodged outside of Jerusalem once or twice.
21 Markaasaan iyagii u digay oo ku idhi, War maxaad derbiga hareerihiisa ugu hoyataan? Haddaad mar dambe saas yeeshaan gacan baan idin saarayaa. Oo ayaantaas ka dib mar dambe ma ay iman maalin sabti ah.
Thereupon did I warn them, and said unto them, Why do ye lodge along the wall? if ye do so again, I will lay hands on you. From that time forth they came no more on the sabbath.
22 Oo waxaan kuwii reer Laawi ku amray inay isdaahiriyaan iyo inay yimaadaan oo irdaha dhawraan si ay quduus uga dhigaan maalinta sabtida. Ilaahayow, taas aawadeedna ii xusuuso, oo iigu tudh siday weynaanta naxariistaadu tahay.
And I ordered the Levites that they should cleanse themselves, and that they should come and keep watch at the gates, to sanctify the sabbath-day. Also this remember unto me, O my God, and shield me according to the abundance of thy kindness.
23 Oo waagaas waxaan kaloo arkay Yuhuuddii oo guursatay naago ah reer Ashdood, iyo reer Cammoon, iyo reer Moo'aab.
In those days also I saw certain Jews that had brought home wives of Ashdod, of 'Ammon, and of Moab:
24 Oo carruurtoodii badhkoodna waxay ku hadli jireen afkii reer Ashdood, oo afkii Yuhuuddana kuma ay hadli karin, laakiinse waxay ku hadli jireen sidii afkii dadyow kasta.
And their children spoke partly in the speech of Ashdod, and did not understand to speak in the Jewish language, but according to the language of one or the other people.
25 Oo anna iyagii waan la diriray, waanan caayay, oo qaarkoodna waan dilay, oo timahoodiina waan ka rifay, waanan ku dhaarshay Ilaah, oo ku idhi, Waa inaydnaan gabdhihiinna u guurin wiilashooda, gabdhahoodana ha u guurinina wiilashiinna, idinkuna ha guursanina.
And I contended with them, and cursed them, and smote certain of them, and plucked out their hair, and made them swear by God, saying, Ye shall not give your daughters unto their sons, nor take their daughters for your sons, nor for yourselves.
26 War Sulaymaan oo ahaa boqorkii reer binu Israa'iil sow isba waxyaalahan kuma dembaabin? In kastoo aan quruumo badan dhexdooda boqor isagoo kala ah laga heli karin, oo uu Ilaahiisuna jeclaa, oo uu Ilaah ka dhigay boqor u taliya reer binu Israa'iil oo dhan, haddana xataa isagii waxaa dembaajiyey naago qalaad.
Did not Solomon the king of Israel sin by these things? and although among the many nations there was never a king like him, and beloved as he was by his God, and God had placed him as king over all Israel: nevertheless even him did the alien women mislead to sin.
27 Haddaba miyaannu idin dhegaysannaa si aannu sharkan oo dhan u samayno oo intaan naago qalaad guursanno miyaannu Ilaahayaga ku xadgudubnaa?
Shall we then hear it said of you, that ye do all this great evil, to trespass against our God in bringing home alien wives?
28 Oo Eliyaashiib oo ahaa wadaadkii sare wiilashiisii midkood oo Yooyaadaac ahaa waxaa soddog u ahaa Sanballad oo ahaa reer Xoron; oo sidaas daraaddeed ayaan isaga eryay.
And one of the sons of Joyada', the son of Elyashib the high priest, was son-in-law to Sanballat the Choronite; wherefore I chased him away from me.
29 Ilaahayow, iyaga xusuuso, maxaa yeelay, waxay nijaaseeyeen wadaadnimadii, iyo axdigii wadaadnimada iyo kii reer Laawi.
Remember [this] unto them, O my God, because of the defilements of the priesthood, and of the covenant of the priesthood, and of the Levites.
30 Haddaba sidaasaan uga nadiifiyey dad kasta oo qalaad, oo waxaan bixiyey amar ku saabsan wadaaddadii iyo kuwii reer Laawiba iyo mid walba shuqulkiisii,
Thus cleansed I them from all aliens, and I appointed the watches of the priests and the Levites, every one in his work;
31 iyo amar ku saabsan qurbaankii qoryaha oo wakhtiyada la amray la keeno, iyo midhaha ugu horreeya. Ilaahayow, wanaag igu xusuuso.
And for the procuring of the wood, at fixed time, and for the first-fruits. Remember this unto me, O my God, for good.
