Tirintii 17

1 Markaasaa Rabbigu Muuse la hadlay, oo wuxuu ku yidhi,

And YHWH speaks to Moses, saying,

2 Reer binu Israa'iil la hadal, oo iyaga ulo ka qaad. Qabiil kastaba ul ka qaad; amiirradooda oo dhan sida ay qabiilooyinkoodu kala yihiin laba iyo toban ulood ka kala qaad. Oo nin walba magiciisa ushiisa ku qor.

“Speak to the sons of Israel, and take a rod from each of them, for a father’s house, from all their princes, for the house of their fathers—twelve rods; you write the name of each on his rod,

3 Usha reer Laawi waxaad ku qortaa magaca Haaruun. Qabiilooyinkooda madaxdooda mid kastaaba waa inuu ul lahaadaa.

and you write Aaron’s name on the tribe of Levi; for one rod [is] for the head of their fathers’ house.

4 Oo waa inaad iyaga hor dhigtaa maragga teendhada shirka ku yaal, taasoo ah meesha aan idinkula kulmo.

And you have placed them in the Tent of Meeting before the Testimony, where I meet with you.

5 Oo markaas ninkii aan doorto ushiisu way magooli doontaa, oo anna hortayda waan ka joojin doonaa gunuuska ay reer binu Israa'iil adiga kuu gunuusaan.

And it has come to pass, the man’s rod on whom I fix flourishes, and I have caused the murmurings of the sons of Israel, which they are murmuring against you, to cease from off Me.”

6 Markaasaa Muuse reer binu Israa'iil la hadlay, oo amiirradoodii oo dhammu waxay isagii siiyeen ulo, oo amiir kastaaba mid buu siiyey siday qabiilooyinkoodu ahaayeen, intaasu waxay ahayd laba iyo toban ulood; oo ushii Haaruunna ulahooday ku dhex jirtay.

And Moses speaks to the sons of Israel, and all their princes give to him one rod for a prince, one rod for a prince, for their fathers’ house—twelve rods; and the rod of Aaron [is] in the midst of their rods;

7 Markaasaa Muuse ulihii dhigay Rabbiga hortiisa teendhadii maragga gudaheeda.

and Moses places the rods before YHWH in the Tent of the Testimony.

8 Maalintii dambe waxaa noqotay in Muuse galay teendhadii maragga, oo bal eeg, wuxuu arkay ushii Haaruun oo reer Laawi oo magooshay; way magooshay, wayna ubxisay, oo waxay dhashay yicib bisil.

And it comes to pass, on the next day, that Moses goes into the Tent of the Testimony, and behold, the rod of Aaron has flourished for the house of Levi, and brings out a bud, and blossoms [with] a blossom, and produces almonds;

9 Markaasaa Muuse ulihii ka soo qaaday Rabbiga hortiisa oo wuxuu u keenay reer binu Israa'iil oo dhan, oo way fiiriyeen oo nin waluba ushiisii buu qaatay.

and Moses brings out all the rods from before YHWH to all the sons of Israel, and they look, and each takes his rod.

10 Markaasaa Rabbigu Muuse ku yidhi, Usha Haaruun dib ugu celi maragga hortiisa in iyada loo haysto calaamo ka gees ah dadka caasiya, inaad iga joojisid gunuuskooda ay ii gunuusaan, yaanay iyagu dhimane.

And YHWH says to Moses, “Put back the rod of Aaron before the Testimony, for a charge, for a sign to the sons of rebellion, and you remove their murmurings from off Me, and they do not die”;

11 Oo sidaasaa Muuse yeelay. Sidii Rabbigu isaga ugu amray ayuu u sameeyey.

and Moses does as YHWH has commanded him; so he has done.

12 Markaasay reer binu Israa'iil Muuse la hadleen, oo waxay ku yidhaahdeen, War bal eeg, waannu baabba'aynaa, oo waannu halligmaynaa, kulligayo waannu wada halligmaynaaye.

And the sons of Israel speak to Moses, saying, “Behold, we have expired, we have perished, all of us have perished!

13 Mid kasta oo soo dhowaada oo u soo dhowaadaa taambuugga Rabbiga wuu dhiman doonaa. Haddaba kulligayo miyaannu wada baabba'aynaa?

Any who is at all drawing near to the Dwelling Place of YHWH dies; have we not been consumed—to expire?”
