Tirintii 13
1 Markaasaa Rabbigu Muuse la hadlay oo wuxuu ku yidhi,
Yahweh said to Moses/me,
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 Canaan [land] to explore it. That is the land that I will give to you Israelis. Send men who are leaders in their tribes.”
3 Markaasaa Muuse iyagii ka diray cidladii Faaraan sidii amarkii Rabbigu ahaa, oo kulligood waxay ahaayeen rag reer binu Israa'iil madax u ahaa.
So Moses/I did what Yahweh commanded him/me. He/I sent out twelve Israeli men who were all leaders of their tribes. He/I sent them from their/our camp at Paran in the desert.
4 Oo magacyadoodiina kuwan bay ahaayeen: qabiilkii reer Ruubeen waxaa ka tegey Shammuuca ina Sakuur.
These are the names of the men [and the tribes they belonged to: ] Shammua, the son of Zaccur, from the tribe of Reuben;
5 Oo qabiilkii reer Simecoonna Shaafaad ina Xori.
Shaphat, the son of Hori, from the tribe of Simeon;
6 Oo qabiilkii reer Yahuudahna Kaaleeb ina Yefunneh.
Caleb, the son of Jephunneh, from the tribe of Judah;
7 Oo qabiilkii reer Isaakaarna Yigaal ina Yuusuf.
Igal, the son of Joseph, from the tribe of Issachar;
8 Oo qabiilka reer Efrayimna Hoosheeca ina Nuun.
Hoshea, the son of Nun, from the tribe of Ephraim;
9 Oo qabiilkii reer Benyaamiinna Faltii ina Raafuu.
Palti, the son of Raphu, from the tribe of Benjamin;
10 Oo qabiilkii reer Sebulunna Gaddii'eel ina Soodii.
Gaddiel, the son of Sodi, from the tribe of Zebulun;
11 Oo qabiilkii reer Yuusuf oo ah reer Manasehna Gaddii ina Suusii.
Gaddi, the son of Susi, from the tribe of Manasseh;
12 Oo qabiilkii reer Daanna Cammii'eel ina Gemallii.
Ammiel, the son of Gemalli, from the tribe of Dan;
13 Oo qabiilkii reer Aasheerna Setuur ina Miikaa'eel.
Sethur, the son of Michael, from the tribe of Asher;
14 Oo qabiilkii reer Naftaalina Naxbii ina Waafsii.
Nahbi, the son of Vophsi, from the tribe of Naphtali;
15 Oo qabiilkii reer Gaadna Ge'uu'eel ina Maakii.
and Geuel, the son of Maki, from the tribe of Gad.
16 Intaasu waa magacyadii nimankii Muuse u diray inay dalka soo basaasaan. Markaasaa Muuse wuxuu Hoosheeca ina Nuun u bixiyey Yashuuca.
Those are the names of the men whom Moses/I sent out to explore Canaan. [Before they left], Moses/I gave Hoshea a new name, Joshua, [which means ‘Yahweh is the one who saves].’
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.
Before Moses/I sent them to explore Canaan, he/I said to them, “Go through the southern part of Canaan, and then go [north] into the hilly area.
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 land is like. See if the people who live there are strong or weak. See if there are many people or only a few people.
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,
Find out what kind of land they live in [RHQ]. Is it good or bad? Find out about the towns in which they live [RHQ]. Do they have walls around them or not?
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.
Find out about the soil [RHQ]. Is it (fertile/good for growing crops) or not? Find out if there are trees there [RHQ]. Try to bring back some of the fruit that grows in that land.” [He/I said that because] it was the beginning of the time to harvest grapes.
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 those men went to Canaan. They went [through the entire land], from the Zin desert [in the south] all the way to Rehob [town] near Lebo-Hamath [in the north].
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.)
In the south, they went to Hebron, where Ahiman, Sheshai, and Talmai, [huge men] descended from Anak, lived. Hebron was a city that was built seven years before Zoan [city] was built in Egypt.
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.
In one valley, they cut from a grapevine one cluster of grapes. [Because it was very large, they needed] two men to carry it on a pole. They also picked some pomegranates and some figs [to carry back to their camp].
24 Oo meeshaas magaceeda waxaa la odhan jiray Eshkol, rucubkii canabka ahaa oo ay reer binu Israa'iil halkaas ka goosteen aawadiis.
They called that place Eshcol [which means ‘cluster’] because they had cut that [huge] cluster of grapes there.
25 Oo markay afartan maalmood dalkii soo basaaseen dabadeed ayay ka soo noqdeen.
After they explored the land for 40 days, they returned to their camp.
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 came to Aaron and Moses/me and the rest of the Israeli people in the desert at Paran. They reported to everyone what they had seen. They also showed them the fruit that they had brought back.
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.
But this is what they reported to Moses/me: “We arrived in the land that you sent us to explore. It is truly a beautiful land, and it is very fertile [IDM]. Here is some of the 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 who live there are very strong. Their cities are large and are surrounded by walls. We even saw some of the [huge] 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 descendants of Amalek live in the southern part [of the land], and the descendants of Heth, Jebus, and Amor live in the hilly area [to the north]. The descendants of Canaan live along the coast of the [Mediterranean] sea and along the Jordan [River].”
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.
[When they said that, the people were afraid and started to cry out very loudly]. But Caleb told the people who were standing near Moses/me to be quiet. Then he said, “We should go there and take the land, because we are certainly able to conquer 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 said, “No, we cannot attack [and defeat] those people! They are much stronger than we are!”
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.
So those men gave to the Israeli people a bad report about the land that they had explored. They said, “The land that we explored is very large; we cannot conquer it. And all the people whom we saw are very tall.
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 the descendants of Nephili there. The descendants of Anak [whom we saw there] are descended from the giant Nephili people. When we saw them, we felt [as small] as grasshoppers [SIM], and they thought that we looked like grasshoppers too!”
