1 N ow on the twenty-fourth day of this month the sons of Israel gathered together, but they did not eat. They dressed in cloth made from hair, and put dirt on their heads.

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

2 T he children of Israel separated themselves from all those of other nations. They stood and told their sins and the sins of their fathers to God.

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

3 W hile they stood in their place, they read from the book of the Law of the Lord their God for a fourth of the day. And for another fourth they told their sins and worshiped the Lord their God.

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.

4 J eshua, Bani, Kadmiel, Shebaniah, Bunni, Sherebiah, Bani, and Chenani stood on the Levites’ raised floor. And they cried with a loud voice to the Lord their God.

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.

5 T hen the Levites, Jeshua, Kadmiel, Bani, Hashabneiah, Sherebiah, Hodiah, Shebaniah, and Pethahiah, said, “Stand up and give honor and thanks to the Lord your God forever and ever! O may Your great name be praised!” The Prayer—Telling of Their Sins

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.

6 “ You alone are the Lord. You made the heavens, the heaven of heavens with all their angels. You have made the earth and all that is on it, and the seas and all that is in them. You give life to all of them, and the angels of heaven bow down to You.

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.

7 Y ou are the Lord God, Who chose Abram and brought him out from Ur of the Chaldees and gave him the name Abraham.

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

8 Y ou found his heart faithful to You and made an agreement with him, to give his children and their children’s children the land of the Canaanite, the Hittite, the Amorite, the Perizzite, the Jebusite, and the Girgashite. And You have done what You promised, for You are right and good.

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.

9 “ You saw the trouble of our fathers in Egypt. You heard their cry by the Red Sea.

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

10 T hen You made special things to see and did powerful works against Pharaoh, against all his servants and all the people of his land. For You knew that they were proud and made it hard for our fathers. And You made a name for Yourself, as it is this day.

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.

11 Y ou divided the sea in front of them, so they passed through the sea on dry ground. And You threw those who went after them into the deep sea, like a stone into troubled waters.

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.

12 Y ou led the people during the day with a cloud, and with a pillar of fire during the night to light the way they were to go.

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

13 T hen You came down on Mount Sinai and spoke with them from heaven. You gave them Laws that are right and true and good.

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,

14 Y ou made known to them Your holy Day of Rest, and gave them Laws through Your servant Moses.

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

15 Y ou gave them bread from heaven for their hunger. You brought them water from a rock for their thirst. And You told them to go in to take for their own the land You promised to give them.

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.

16 “ But they, our fathers, acted with pride. They became strong-willed and would not listen to Your Words.

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

17 T hey would not listen, and did not remember Your powerful works which You had done among them. So they became strong-willed and chose a leader to return to their hard work in Egypt. But You are a forgiving God. You are kind and loving, slow to anger, and full of loving-kindness. You did not leave them.

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.

18 T hey even melted gold and made a calf, and said, ‘This is your God Who brought you up from Egypt.’ They spoke sinful words against You.

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,

19 B ut You, in Your great loving-kindness, did not leave them in the desert. The pillar of cloud which led them on their way during the day did not leave them. And the pillar of fire which gave light to the way they were to go during the night did not leave them.

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.

20 Y ou gave Your good Spirit to teach them. You did not keep Your bread from heaven from their mouths. And You gave them water when they were thirsty.

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

21 F or forty years You kept them alive in the desert and gave them everything they needed. Their clothes did not wear out, and their feet did not become sore.

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

22 Y ou gave them nations and peoples, and You gave them every part. For their own they took the land of Sihon king of Heshbon and the land of Og king of Bashan.

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.

23 Y ou made their sons as many as the stars of heaven. And You brought them into the land which You had told their fathers to go into and take for their own.

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.

24 S o their sons went into the land and took it. You gave them power over the people of the land, the Canaanites. You gave these people into their hand, with their kings and the peoples of the land, to do with them as they would.

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.

25 T hey took strong cities and a rich land. They took houses full of every good thing. They took wells that had been dug, grape-vines, olive trees, and many fruit trees. So they ate and were filled and became fat. They were glad because You were so good to them.

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.

26 “ But they would not obey and they turned against You. They put Your Law behind their backs. They killed the men who tell what will happen who had spoken sharp words to them telling them to return to You. The people spoke very sinful words against You.

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.

27 S o You gave them into the hand of those who made it hard for them. But when they cried to You in the time of their trouble, You heard from heaven. And by Your great loving-kindness You sent men to save them from those who made it hard for them.

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.

28 B ut as soon as they had rest, they sinned against You again. So You left them in the hand of those who hated them, so that they ruled over them. When they cried again to You, You heard from heaven. And many times You took them away from trouble because of Your loving-kindness.

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;

29 Y ou spoke sharp words to them to turn them back to Your Law. Yet they acted in pride and did not listen to Your Words, but sinned against Your Laws, by which if a man obeys them he will live. They were strong-willed and made their hearts hard against You, and would not listen.

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.

30 B ut You did not give up taking care of them for many years. You spoke sharp words to them by Your Spirit through the men who tell what will happen. Yet they would not listen. So You gave them into the hand of the peoples of the lands.

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.

31 B ut in Your great loving-kindness, You did not make an end of them or leave them for You are a kind and loving God.

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

32 “ So now, our God, the great and powerful God, honored with fear, Who keeps His agreement and loving-kindness, do not let all this trouble look small in Your eyes which has come upon us, our kings, our princes, our religious leaders, our men who tell what will happen, our fathers, and on all Your people since the days of the kings of Assyria to this day.

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.

33 Y et You have been right and fair in all that has come upon us. For You have been faithful, but we have sinned.

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

34 O ur kings, leaders, religious leaders, and fathers have not kept Your Law or listened to Your Laws and Your strong words which You have given them.

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

35 E ven when they were in their own nation, with all the good things You gave them and with the great rich land You gave them, they did not serve You or turn from their sins.

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.

36 S ee, we are servants today. We are servants in the land You gave to our fathers. You gave it to them so they could eat the fruit and have other good things.

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.

37 T he many good things the land gives are used by the kings whom You have put over us because of our sins. They also rule over our bodies and over our cattle as they please. So we are in much trouble. The People Sign an Agreement

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. Axdigii Dadka

38 “ Now because of all this we are making an agreement in writing. And our leaders, our Levites, and our religious leaders have put their mark on it.”

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.
