Nexemyaah 9

1 Haddaba bisha afar iyo labaatankeedii ayaa reer binu Israa'iil soo shireen iyagoo sooman oo dhar joonyad ah guntan oo ciid isku shubay.

Now in the twenty and fourth day of this month the children of Israel were assembled with fasting, and with sackclothes, and earth upon them.

2 Markaasaa farcankii reer binu Israa'iil waxay iska sooceen dad qalaad oo dhan, oo intay istaageen ayay qirteen dembiyadoodii iyo xumaatooyinkii awowayaashood.

And the seed of Israel separated themselves from all strangers, and stood and confessed their sins, and the iniquities of their fathers.

3 Kolkaasay meeshoodii istaageen oo akhriyeen kitaabkii sharciga Rabbiga Ilaahooda ah intii maalin rubuceed ah; oo haddana rubuc kale ayay wax qirteen, wayna u sujuudeen Rabbiga Ilaahooda ah.

And they stood up in their place, and read in the book of the law of YHWH their Elohim one fourth part of the day; and another fourth part they confessed, and worshipped YHWH their Elohim.

4 Markaasaa darajadii reer Laawi waxaa ku kor istaagay Yeeshuuca, iyo Baanii, iyo Qadmii'eel, iyo Shebanyaah, iyo Bunnii, iyo Sheereebyaah, iyo Baanii, iyo Kenaanii, oo cod weyn ayay ugu qayshadeen Rabbiga Ilaahooda ah.

Then stood up upon the stairs, of the Levites, Jeshua, and Bani, Kadmiel, Shebaniah, Bunni, Sherebiah, Bani, and Chenani, and cried with a loud voice unto YHWH their Elohim.

5 Markaasaa kuwii reer Laawi oo ahaa Yeeshuuca, iyo Qadmii'eel, iyo Baanii, iyo Xashabneyaah, iyo Sheereebyaah, iyo Hoodiyaah, iyo Shebanyaah, iyo Fetaxyaah, waxay dadkii ku yidhaahdeen, War istaaga oo Rabbiga Ilaahiinna ah ammaana weligiis iyo weligiis, oo waxay yidhaahdeen, Magacaaga ammaanta badan ha la ammaano, kaasoo ka wada sarreeya kulli mahad iyo ammaan oo dhan.

Then the Levites, Jeshua, and Kadmiel, Bani, Hashabniah, Sherebiah, Hodijah, Shebaniah, and Pethahiah, said, Stand up and bless YHWH your Elohim for ever and ever: and blessed be thy glorious name, which is exalted above all blessing and praise.

6 Adigaa Rabbiga ah oo keligaa baa ah. Waxaad samaysay samada, taasoo ah samada samooyinka, iyo ciidankooda oo dhan, iyo dhulka iyo waxa kor jooga oo dhan, iyo badaha iyo waxa ku jira oo dhan, dhammaantood adigaa sii nooleeya, oo ciidanka samaduna adigay kuu sujuudaan.

Thou, even thou, art YHWH alone; thou hast made heaven, the heaven of heavens, with all their host, the earth, and all things that are therein, the seas, and all that is therein, and thou preservest them all; and the host of heaven worshippeth thee.

7 Adigaa ah Rabbiga Ilaaha ah oo Aabraam doortay, oo isaga ka soo bixiyey Uur tii reer Kaldayiin, oo u bixiyey magaca Ibraahim la yidhaahdo,

Thou art YHWH the Elohim, who didst choose Abram, and broughtest him forth out of Ur of the Chaldees, and gavest him the name of Abraham;

8 oo dabadeedna ogaaday in qalbigiisu hortaada aamin ku yahay, oo isagii axdi kula dhigtay inaad isaga siinaysid dalka reer Kancaan, iyo reer Xeed, iyo reer Amor, iyo reer Feris, iyo reer Yebuus, iyo reer Girgaash, xataa inaad dalkaas siinaysid farcankiisa; oo erayadaadiina waad oofisay, maxaa yeelay, xaq baad tahay.

And foundest his heart faithful before thee, and madest a covenant with him to give the land of the Canaanites, the Hittites, the Amorites, and the Perizzites, and the Jebusites, and the Girgashites, to give it, I say, to his seed, and hast performed thy words; for thou art righteous:

9 Adigu waxaad aragtay dhibkii awowayaashayo dalka Masar ku qabeen, waanad maqashay qayladoodii ay Badda Cas agteeda ka qaysheen;

And didst see the affliction of our fathers in Egypt, and heardest their cry by the Red sea;

10 oo weliba Fircoon iyo addoommadiisii oo dhan, iyo kulli dadkii dalkiisa oo dhan waxaad tustay calaamooyin iyo yaabab, waayo, waad ogayd inay iyaga ku kibreen, oo halkaas magac baad ku heeshay siday maanta tahay.

And shewedst signs and wonders upon Pharoah, and on all his servants, and on all the people of his land: for thou knewest that they dealt proudly against them. So didst thou get thee a name, as it is this day.

11 Oo iyagii hortood ayaad baddii kala qaybisay, oo waxay mareen badda dhexdeedii, oo dhul engegan bay ku socdeen, oo kuwii iyaga eryanayayna sidii dhagax biyo xoog badan lagu dhex riday ayaad moolka ugu tuurtay.

And thou didst divide the sea before them, so that they went through the midst of the sea on the dry land; and their persecutors thou threwest into the deeps, as a stone into the mighty waters.

12 Oo weliba maalintii waxaad ku hoggaamisay tiir daruur ah, habeenkiina tiir dab ah, si aad ugu iftiimiso jidkii ay marayeen.

Moreover thou leddest them in the day by a cloudy pillar; and in the night by a pillar of fire, to give them light in the way wherein they should go.

13 Waxaad weliba ku soo kor degtay Buur Siinay, oo iyagaad kala hadashay xagga samada, oo waxaad siisay xukummo qumman, iyo sharciyaal xaq ah, iyo qaynuunno wanwanaagsan, iyo amarro,

Thou camest down also upon mount Sinai, and spakest with them from heaven, and gavest them right judgments, and true laws, good statutes and commandments:

14 oo waxaad ogeysiisay Sabtidaada quduuska ah, oo ku amartay amarro, iyo qaynuunno, iyo sharci aad ugu soo dhiibtay addoonkaagii Muuse.

And madest known unto them thy holy Sabbath, and commandedst them precepts, statutes, and laws, by the hand of Moses thy servant:

15 Oo kibis ay ku gaajo baxaan baad samada ka siisay, biyo ay ku oon baxaanna dhagax baad uga soo daysay, oo waxaad ku amartay inay galaan oo hantiyaan dalkii aad ku dhaaratay inaad siinaysid.

And gavest them bread from heaven for their hunger, and broughtest forth water for them out of the rock for their thirst, and promisedst them that they should go in to possess the land which thou hadst sworn to give them.

16 Laakiinse iyagii iyo awowayaashayaba way kibreen, oo luquntay adkeeyeen, oo amarradaadiina ma ay maqlin,

But they and our fathers dealt proudly, and hardened their necks, and hearkened not to thy commandments,

17 wayna diideen inay addeecaan, kamana ay fiirsan yaababkaagii aad dhexdooda ku samaysay, laakiinse luquntay adkeeyeen, oo iyagoo caasi ah ayay sirkaal doorteen inay addoonnimadoodii ku noqdaan; laakiinse adigu waxaad tahay Ilaah diyaar u ah inuu wax cafiyo, waxaanad tahay nimco miidhan, oo waxaa kaa buuxda raxmad, cadho waad u gaabisaa, naxariisna hodan baad ka tahay, oo iyagiina ma aadan dayrin.

And refused to obey, neither were mindful of thy wonders that thou didst among them; but hardened their necks, and in their rebellion appointed a captain to return to their bondage: but thou art Eloah, ready to pardon, gracious and merciful, slow to anger, and of great kindness, and forsookest them not.

18 Oo xataa markay samaysteen weyl dahab la shubay ah, oo ay isku yidhaahdeen, Kanu waa Ilaahaagii kaa soo bixiyey dalkii Masar; oo ay aad kaaga dhirfiyeen,

Yea, when they had made them a molten calf, and said, This is thy Elohim that brought thee up out of Egypt, and had wrought great provocations;

19 de weliba naxariistaada badan aawadeed iyagii kuma aadan dayrin cidladii. Maalinnimadii tiirkii daruurta ahaa kama uu tegin iyagii si uu jidka ugu hoggaamiyo, oo tiirkii dabka ahaana habeennimadii kama uu tegin si uu iftiin ugu noqdo oo uu jidkii ay mari lahaayeen ugu muujiyo.

Yet thou in thy manifold mercies forsookest them not in the wilderness: the pillar of the cloud departed not from them by day, to lead them in the way; neither the pillar of fire by night, to shew them light, and the way wherein they should go.

20 Oo weliba waxaad siisay ruuxaagii wanaagsanaa inuu iyagii wax baro, oo afkoodana kama aadan joojin maannadaadii, biyo ay ka oon baxaanna waad siisay.

Thou gavest also thy good spirit to instruct them, and withheldest not thy manna from their mouth, and gavest them water for their thirst.

21 Haah, afartan sannadood ayaad iyaga cidlada ku xannaanaynaysay, oo waxba uma ayan baahan, dharkoodiina kama uusan duugoobin, cagahoodiina ma ayan bararin.

Yea, forty years didst thou sustain them in the wilderness, so that they lacked nothing; their clothes waxed not old, and their feet swelled not.

22 Oo weliba waxaad iyaga siisay oo saami ugu qaybisay boqortooyooyin iyo dadyow kale, oo sidaasay u hantiyeen dalkii Siixon oo ahaa boqorkii Xeshboon, iyo dalkii Coog oo ahaa boqorkii Baashaan.

Moreover thou gavest them kingdoms and nations, and didst divide them into corners: so they possessed the land of Sihon, and the land of the king of Heshbon, and the land of Og king of Bashan.

23 Oo carruurtoodiina waxaad u badisay sida xiddigaha samada oo kale, oo iyagii waxaad keentay dalkii aad awowayaashood ku tidhi, Iyagu waa inay galaan si ay u hantiyaan.

Their children also multipliedst thou as the stars of heaven, and broughtest them into the land, concerning which thou hadst promised to their fathers, that they should go in to possess it.

24 Markaasay carruurtii dalkii galeen oo hantiyeen, oo waxaad ka hoosaysiisay dadkii dalka degganaa oo ahaa reer Kancaan, waanad gelisay gacmahoodii, iyagii iyo boqorradoodii iyo dadyowgii dalka degganaaba, inay iyaga ku sameeyaan wax alla waxay doonayaan.

So the children went in and possessed the land, and thou subduedst before them the inhabitants of the land, the Canaanites, and gavest them into their hands, with their kings, and the people of the land, that they might do with them as they would.

25 Oo waxay qabsadeen magaalooyin deyr leh iyo dal barwaaqo leh, oo waxay hantiyeen guryo ay ka buuxaan wax kasta oo wanaagsanu, iyo berkedo qodan, iyo beero canab ah, iyo beero saytuun ah, iyo geedo midho leh oo faro badan. Haddaba wax bay cuneen oo dhergeen, wayna cayileen, oo waxay ku farxeen wanaaggaaga weyn.

And they took strong cities, and a fat land, and possessed houses full of all goods, wells digged, vineyards, and oliveyards, and fruit trees in abundance: so they did eat, and were filled, and became fat, and delighted themselves in thy great goodness.

26 Habase yeeshee way dhega adkaadeen oo kaa caasiyoobeen; sharcigaagiina gadaashooday ku tuureen, oo waxay dileen nebiyadaadii iyaga ku markhaati furay oo doonayay inay mar kale kuu soo celiyaan, oo aad bay kaaga dhirfiyeen.

Nevertheless they were disobedient, and rebelled against thee, and cast thy law behind their backs, and slew thy prophets which testified against them to turn them to thee, and they wrought great provocations.

27 Sidaas daraaddeed waxaad gacanta u gelisay cadaawayaashoodii, oo iyana way dhibeen; oo markii ay dhibtoodeen oo ay kuu qayshadeen, samadaad ka maqashay; oo naxariistaada badan aawadeed waxaad siisay badbaadshayaal cadaawayaashooda ka badbaadshay.

Therefore thou deliveredst them into the hand of their enemies, who vexed them: and in the time of their trouble, when they cried unto thee, thou heardest them from heaven; and according to thy manifold mercies thou gavest them saviours, who saved them out of the hand of their enemies.

28 Laakiin markay nasteen ayay wax shar ah hortaada ku sameeyeen, oo sidaas daraaddeed waxaad u daysay gacantii cadaawayaashooda, oo iyana way addoonsadeen iyagii; illowse markay kuu soo noqdeen oo ay kuu qayshadeen, samadaad ka maqashay; oo marar badan ayaad naxariistaada aawadeed ku samatabbixisay;

But after they had rest, they did evil again before thee: therefore leftest thou them in the hand of their enemies, so that they had the dominion over them: yet when they returned, and cried unto thee, thou heardest them from heaven; and many times didst thou deliver them according to thy mercies;

29 oo aad ku markhaati furtay, si aad mar kale sharcigaaga ugu soo celiso; laakiinse way kugu kibreen oo amarradaadiina ma ay maqlin, illowse xukummadaadii way ku dembaabeen, (kaasoo haddii nin sameeyo uu ku dhex noolaan lahaa, ) oo intay kaa jeesteen ayay luqunta adkeeyeen, wayna diideen inay maqlaan.

And testifiedst against them, that thou mightest bring them again unto thy law: yet they dealt proudly, and hearkened not unto thy commandments, but sinned against thy judgments, (which if a man do, he shall live in them; ) and withdrew the shoulder, and hardened their neck, and would not hear.

30 Oo weliba sannado badan baad u dulqaadatay, oo Ruuxaaga ayaad ugu markhaati furtay adigoo nebiyadaadii ka dhex hadlaya; laakiinse dheg uma ayan dhigin, oo sidaas daraaddeed waxaad gelisay gacantii dadyowgii dalka degganaa.

Yet many years didst thou forbear them, and testifiedst against them by thy spirit in thy prophets: yet would they not give ear: therefore gavest thou them into the hand of the people of the lands.

31 Habase yeeshee naxariistaada badan aawadeed dhammaantood ma aadan wada baabbi'in, mana aadan dayrin, maxaa yeelay, waxaad tahay Ilaah raxmad iyo naxariis badan.

Nevertheless for thy great mercies' sake thou didst not utterly consume them, nor forsake them; for thou art a gracious and merciful El.

32 Haddaba sidaas daraaddeed Ilaahayaga weyn, oo Qaadirka ah, oo laga cabsado, oo xajiya axdiga iyo naxariistow, dhibkan oo dhammu yuusan wax yar kula ekaan, kaasoo ku soo kor degay annaga, iyo boqorradayadii, iyo amiirradayadii, iyo wadaaddadayadii, iyo nebiyadayadii, iyo awowayaashayadii, iyo dadkaagii oo dhan, tan iyo wakhtigii boqorradii Ashuur iyo ilaa maantadan la joogo.

Now therefore, our Elohim, the great, the mighty, and the awesome El, who keepest covenant and mercy, let not all the trouble seem little before thee, that hath come upon us, on our kings, on our princes, and on our priests, and on our prophets, and on our fathers, and on all thy people, since the time of the kings of Assyria unto this day.

33 Si kastaba ha ahaatee xaq baad ku tahay waxa nagu dhacay oo dhan, maxaa yeelay, run baad ku socotay, annaguse shar baannu samaynay,

Howbeit thou art just in all that is brought upon us; for thou hast done right, but we have done wickedly:

34 oo boqorradayadii, iyo amiirradayadii, iyo wadaaddadayadii, iyo awowayaashayadii toona ma ay dhawrin sharcigaagii, mana ay dhegaysan amarradaadii iyo markhaatifurkaagii aad ugu marag furtay.

Neither have our kings, our princes, our priests, nor our fathers, kept thy law, nor hearkened unto thy commandments and thy testimonies, wherewith thou didst testify against them.

35 Waayo, boqortooyadoodii kuuguma ay adeegin wanaaggaagii weynaa oo aad siisay aawadiis, iyo dalka ballaadhan oo barwaaqaysan oo aad hortooda dhigtay aawadiis, oo kamana ay soo noqon shuqulladoodii sharka ahaa.

For they have not served thee in their kingdom, and in thy great goodness that thou gavest them, and in the large and fat land which thou gavest before them, neither turned they from their wicked works.

36 Bal eeg, annagu maanta waxaannu nahay addoommo, oo dalkii aad awowayaashayo u siisay inay midhihiisa iyo wanaaggiisa cunaan, bal eeg, annagu dhexdiisaannu addoommo ku nahaye.

Behold, we are servants this day, and for the land that thou gavest unto our fathers to eat the fruit thereof and the good thereof, behold, we are servants in it:

37 Oo bal eeg, wuxuu midho badan u dhalaa boqorradii aad korkayaga ka yeeshay dembigayaga aawadiis; oo weliba waxay ugu taliyaan jidhkayaga iyo xoolahayagaba siday doonayaan, oo annana cidhiidhi weyn baannu ku jirnaa.

And it yieldeth much increase unto the kings whom thou hast set over us because of our sins: also they have dominion over our bodies, and over our cattle, at their pleasure, and we are in great distress.

38 Oo weliba waxaas oo dhan aawadood waxaannu kula dhiganaynaa axdi daacad ah, waannuna qoraynaa, oo waxaa shaabad ku dhammaynaya amiirradayada, iyo kuwayaga reer Laawi, iyo wadaaddadayada.

And because of all this we make a sure covenant, and write it; and our princes, Levites, and priests, seal unto it.
