Tirintii 13
1 Markaasaa Rabbigu Muuse la hadlay oo wuxuu ku yidhi,
The Lord told Moses,
2 War waxaad dirtaa niman soo basaasa dalka reer Kancaan oo aan reer binu Israa'iil siinayo, oo qabiil walba waa inaad nin ka dirtaan, oo mid kastaaba ha ahaado amiir iyaga ku jira.
“Send some men to explore the land of Canaan, the country I'm giving to the Israelites. Choose one of the leaders from each of the tribes to go and do this.”
3 Markaasaa Muuse iyagii ka diray cidladii Faaraan sidii amarkii Rabbigu ahaa, oo kulligood waxay ahaayeen rag reer binu Israa'iil madax u ahaa.
Moses did as the Lord had ordered and sent the men out from the Desert of Paran. They were all leaders of the Israelites.

16 Intaasu waa magacyadii nimankii Muuse u diray inay dalka soo basaasaan. Markaasaa Muuse wuxuu Hoosheeca ina Nuun u bixiyey Yashuuca.
These were the names of the men that Moses sent to explore the country. Moses called Hoshea Joshua.
17 Markaasaa Muuse iyagii u diray inay dalkii reer Kancaan soo basaasaan, oo wuxuu iyagii ku yidhi, Jidkan koonfureed xaggiisa u kaca oo buuraha fuula.
Moses sent them out to explore the land of Canaan, telling them, “Go through the Negev and on into the hill country.
18 Oo waxaad soo fiirisaan dalku siduu yahay, iyo dadka degganu inay xoog badan yihiin iyo inay itaal yar yihiin, iyo inay tiro yar yihiin iyo inay tiro badan yihiin,
See what the place looks like, and find out about the people living there—are they strong or weak? Are there many of them or only a few?
19 iyo dalka ay deggan yihiin siduu yahay inuu wanaagsan yahay iyo inuu xun yahay, iyo magaalooyinka ay deggan yihiin siday yihiin, inay xerooyin deggan yihiin iyo inay qalcado xoog badan ku jiraan,
Is the land where they're living good or bad? Are their towns like open camps, or do they have defensive walls?
20 iyo siduu dalku yahay inuu barwaaqaysan yahay iyo in kale, iyo inuu dhir leeyahay iyo in kale. Haddaba dhiirranaada oo dalka midhihiisa keena. Oo wakhtiguna wuxuu ahaa xilliga uu canabka hore bislaado.
Is the soil productive or not? Is it forested? Be brave, and bring back some of the country's fruit.” (It was the beginning of the grape harvest.)
21 Haddaba iyagii way tageen oo waxay soo basaaseen dalkii tan iyo cidlada Sin iyo ilaa Rexob oo ku taal meesha Xamaad laga galo.
So the men went and explored the land all the way from the Desert of Zin to Rehob, bear Lebo-hamath.
22 Oo waxay tageen xagga koonfureed, oo yimaadeen Xebroon; oo Axiiman iyo Sheeshay iyo Talmay oo reer Canaaq ahaa ayaa halkaas degganaa. (Oo Xebroon waxaa la dhisay goor toddoba sannadood ka horraysa intaan la dhisin Socan oo Masar ku taal.)
They went through the Negev and arrived in Hebron where Ahiman, Sheshai, and Talmai, the descendants of Anak, lived. This town was built seven years before the Egyptian town of Zoan.
23 Oo haddana waxay yimaadeen dooxadii Eshkol, oo halkaasay ka goosteen laan rucub canab ahu ku yaal, oo waxay ku qaadeen ul laba nin u dhexaysa, waxayna keeneen midho rummaan iyo berde ah.
When they arrived at the Valley of Eshcol they chopped down a branch that had just one bunch of grapes. They had to carry it on a pole held between two men. They also collected some pomegranates and figs.
24 Oo meeshaas magaceeda waxaa la odhan jiray Eshkol, rucubkii canabka ahaa oo ay reer binu Israa'iil halkaas ka goosteen aawadiis.
(The place was named the Valley of Eshcol because of the bunch of grapes they took from there.)
25 Oo markay afartan maalmood dalkii soo basaaseen dabadeed ayay ka soo noqdeen.
Forty days later the men returned from exploring the country.
26 Markaasay tageen oo Muuse iyo Haaruun iyo shirkii reer binu Israa'iil oo dhan ugu yimaadeen cidladii Faaraan iyo tan iyo Qaadeesh, oo iyagii iyo ururkii oo dhan war bay u keeneen, oo waxay soo tuseen midhihii dalka.
They went to see Moses and Aaron, and all the Israelites gathered there at their camp in Kadesh in the Desert of Paran. They gave a report before everyone and showed them the fruit they had brought back from the country.
27 Oo Muuse bay u warrameen oo waxay ku yidhaahdeen, Annagu dalkii aad noo dirtay waan gaadhnay, oo hubaal wuxuu la barwaaqaysan yahay caano iyo malab, oo midhihiisiina waa kuwan.
This is the report they gave to Moses: “We went and explored the country you sent us to, and it is definitely very productive, as if it was flowing with milk and honey. Just look at some of its fruit!
28 Habase yeeshee dadka dalka degganu waa xoog badan yihiin, oo magaalooyinkuna deyrar bay leeyihiin, waana waaweyn yihiin, oo weliba waxaannu halkaas ku soo aragnay reer Canaaq.
But the people living there are strong, and their towns are big and have defensive walls. We also saw some descendants of Anak there.
29 Oo reer Camaaleq waxay deggan yihiin dalka xaggiisa koonfureed, oo reer Xeed iyo reer Yebuus iyo reer Amorna waxay deggan yihiin buuraha, oo reer Kancaanna waxay deggan yihiin badda agteeda iyo Webi Urdun dhinaciisa.
The Amalekites live in the Negev. The Hittites, Jebusites, and the Amorites live in the hill country. The Canaanites live on the sea coast and also beside the Jordan.”
30 Markaasaa Kaaleeb dadkii ku aamusiiyey Muuse hortiisa, oo wuxuu ku yidhi, War haddiiba ina keena, aynu dalka qabsannee, waayo, innagu waynu karaynaa inaynu ka adkaanno.
Then Caleb asked for quiet as the people stood before Moses and told them, “Let's go and take over the land. We can conquer the country, no doubt about it!”
31 Laakiinse nimankii isaga raacay waxay yidhaahdeen, War innagu dadkaas kuma kici karno, waayo, way inaga xoog badan yihiin.
But the men who had gone with him disagreed. “We can't go and fight these people! They're much stronger than us!”
32 Oo iyagu dalkii ay soo basaaseen ayay reer binu Israa'iil war xun uga keeneen, oo waxay yidhaahdeen, Dalka aannu dhex marnay oo soo basaasnay waa dal cuna dadka deggan, oo dadkii aannu ku aragnay oo dhammuna waa dad aad u dhaadheer.
They spread a negative report among the Israelites about the country they had explored. They told people, “The country we explored destroys the people that live there. Plus everyone we saw was really big!
33 Oo waxaannu halkaas ku aragnay dad waaweyn oo xoog badan oo ah reer Canaaq oo ka yimid dadkii waaweynaa oo xoogga badnaa. Waxaannu isula yaraannay sida kabajaan oo kale, oo hortoodana sidaas oo kalaannu ku ahayn.
We even saw giants there—people descended from Anak the giant! Compared to them we looked like grasshoppers, and we must have looked like that to them too!”
