1 T hen Joshua gathered all the families of Israel to Shechem. He called for the leaders of Israel, the heads of the families and those who judged between what is right or wrong. And they showed themselves before God.

Markaasaa Yashuuca qabiilooyinkii reer binu Israa'iil oo dhan ku soo ururshay Shekem, oo wuxuu u yeedhay waayeelladii reer binu Israa'iil, iyo madaxdoodii, iyo xaakinnadoodii, iyo saraakiishoodii, oo waxay kulligood ku soo urureen Ilaah hortiisa.

2 J oshua said to all the people, “This is what the Lord, the God of Israel, says: ‘Long ago your fathers lived on the other side of the River. There was Terah, the father of Abraham and Nahor. And they worshiped other gods.

Oo Yashuuca wuxuu dadkii oo dhan ku yidhi, Rabbiga ah Ilaaha reer binu Israa'iil wuxuu leeyahay, Awowayaashiin waxay waa hore degganaan jireen Webigii shishadiisa, oo waxaa ka mid ahaa Terax oo ahaa aabbihii Ibraahim iyo Naaxoor; waxayna u adeegi jireen ilaahyo kale.

3 T hen I took your father Abraham from the other side of the River. I led him through all the land of Canaan. I gave him many children, and I gave him Isaac.

Markaasaan awowgiin Ibraahim ka soo kexeeyey Webiga shishadiisa, oo aan dhex mariyey dalka Kancaan oo dhan, oo farcankiisiina waan badiyey, oo waxaan siiyey Isxaaq.

4 T o Isaac I gave Jacob and Esau. I gave Mount Seir to Esau for his own. But Jacob and his children went down to Egypt.

Isxaaqna waxaan siiyey Yacquub iyo Ceesaw; Ceesawna waxaan Buur Seciir u siiyey inuu hantiyo, oo Yacquub iyo carruurtiisiina waxay ku dhaadhaceen xagga dalka Masar.

5 I sent Moses and Aaron. I had to bring trouble upon Egypt by what I did among them. Then I brought you out.

Oo markaasaan soo diray Muuse iyo Haaruun, oo Masarna belaayaan ku riday, sidii wixii aan dhexdooda ku sameeyey; oo dabadeedna waan idinka soo saaray.

6 I brought your fathers out of Egypt to the Sea. Egypt went after your fathers to the Red Sea with war-wagons and horsemen.

Oo awowayaashiin waxaan ka soo saaray Masar, oo markaasaad timaadeen badda; oo Masriyiintiina awowayaashiin ayay ku sii eryadeen gaadhifardood, iyo fardooley, ilaa ay yimaadeen Badda Cas.

7 B ut when they cried out to the Lord, He put darkness between you and the Egyptians. He brought the sea upon them and covered them. Your own eyes saw what I did in Egypt. And you lived in the desert for a long time.

Oo markay Rabbiga u qayshadeen ayuu gudcur kala dhex dhigay idinka iyo Masriyiintii, oo badduu ku soo daayay oo ku daboolay; oo indhihiinnaad ku aragteen wixii aan ku sameeyey Masar; oo idinna maalmo badan ayaad cidlada degganaydeen.

8 I brought you into the land of the Amorites who lived on the east side of the Jordan. They fought with you, and I gave them to you. You took their land for your own when I destroyed them in front of you.

Oo markaasaan idin keenay dalkii reer Amor, kuwaasoo degganaa Webi Urdun shishadiisa, oo iyana way idinla dirireen; kolkaasaan gacanta idiin geliyey, oo dalkoodiina waad hantideen, iyagiina hortiinna waan ka baabbi'iyey.

9 ’ Then Balak the son of Zippor, king of Moab, came and fought against Israel. He sent for Balaam the son of Beor to curse you.

Dabadeedna waxaa kacay boqorkii Moo'aab oo ahaa Baalaaq ina Sifoor, oo wuxuu la diriray reer binu Israa'iil, markaasuu u yeedhay oo idiinku soo diray inuu idin habaaro Balcaam ina Becoor.

10 B ut I would not listen to Balaam. So he had to pray for good to come to you. And I saved you from his hand.

Laakiinse anigu Balcaam ma aanan dhegaysan; sidaas daraaddeed weliba wuu idiin sii duceeyey; oo sidaasaan gacantiisii idiinka samatabbixiyey.

11 ’ You crossed the Jordan and came to Jericho. The people of Jericho fought against you. And the Amorite, the Perizzite, the Canaanite, the Hittite, the Girgashite, the Hivite and the Jebusite fought against you. So I gave them into your hand.

Oo idinku waxaad ka soo gudubteen Webi Urdun oo aad timaadeen Yerixoo, oo dadkii reer Yerixoo way idinla dagaallameen, kuwaasu waxay ahaayeen reer Amor, iyo reer Feris, iyo reer Kancaan, iyo reer Xeed, iyo reer Girgaash, iyo reer Xiwi, iyo reer Yebuus, oo anna dhammaantood gacantaan idiin geliyey.

12 I sent the hornets ahead of you. They drove out the people and the two kings of the Amorites from in front of you. You did not do it by your sword or bow.

Oo waxaan idinka hor mariyey xoonkii hortiinna ka eryay iyagii oo ahaa xataa labadii boqor oo reer Amor, oo kuwaas kuma aadan eryin seeftaada iyo qaansadaada toona.

13 I gave you a land you did not work for. You live in cities you did not build. You are eating from vines and olive trees you did not plant.’

Oo waxaan idin siiyey dal aydnaan u hawshoon, iyo magaalooyin aydnaan dhisan, oo waad iska dhex degtaan, oo waxaad ka cuntaan canab iyo saytuun aydnaan beeran.

14 “ So fear the Lord. Serve Him in faith and truth. Put away the gods your fathers served on the other side of the river and in Egypt. Serve the Lord.

Haddaba Rabbiga ka cabsada, oo daacad iyo run ugu adeega; oo iska fogeeya ilaahyadii awowayaashiin ugu adeegi jireen Webiga shishadiisa, iyo dalka Masar dhexdiisa, oo idinku waxaad u adeegtaan Rabbiga.

15 I f you think it is wrong to serve the Lord, choose today whom you will serve. Choose the gods your fathers worshiped on the other side of the river, or choose the gods of the Amorites in whose land you are living. But as for me and my family, we will serve the Lord.”

Oo hadday shar idinla tahay inaad Rabbiga u adeegtaan, haddaba maanta doorta kii aad u adeegi doontaan, ama ha noqoto ilaahyadii awowayaashiin ugu adeegi jireen Webiga shishadiisa, ama ilaahyada reer Amor, kuwaas oo aad dalkoodii deggan tihiin; laakiinse aniga iyo reerkayguba waxaannu u adeegi doonaa Rabbiga.

16 T he people answered, “May it never be that we turn away from the Lord and serve other gods.

Kolkaasaa dadkii waxay ugu jawaabeen, Ilaah ha naga fogeeyo inaannu Rabbiga ka tagno oo aannu u adeegno ilaahyo kale;

17 F or the Lord our God is the One Who brought us and our fathers out of the land of Egypt, from the house where we were made to work. He did these powerful works in front of our eyes. He kept us safe everywhere we went, among all the nations we passed through.

waayo, Rabbiga Ilaaheenna ahu waa kii innaga iyo awowayaasheenba inaga soo saaray dalkii Masar oo ahaa gurigii addoonsiga, oo isagu waa kii calaamooyinkaas waaweyn ku sameeyey horteenna oo inagu dhawrayay jidkii aan soo marnay oo dhan, oo inaga samatabbixiyey dadkii aynu soo dhex soconnay oo dhan.

18 T he Lord drove away from in front of us all the nations, even the Amorites who lived in the land. So we will serve the Lord. For He is our God.”

Oo Rabbigu wuxuu horteenna ka eryay dadkii oo dhan, iyo xataa reer Amor oo dalka degganaa; oo sidaas daraaddeed annaguna waxaannu u adeegi doonnaa Rabbiga, maxaa yeelay, isagu waa Ilaahayo.

19 T hen Joshua said to the people, “You will not be able to serve the Lord. For He is a holy God. He is a jealous God. He will not forgive your wrong-doing or your sins.

Markaasaa Yashuuca wuxuu dadkii ku yidhi, Rabbiga uma aad adeegi kartaan; waayo, isagu waa Ilaah quduus ah; oo waa Ilaah masayr ah, oo isagu idinkama cafiyi doono xadgudubkiinna iyo dembiyadiinna toona.

20 I f you turn away from the Lord and serve strange gods, He will turn and punish you. He will destroy you after He has been good to you.”

Oo markuu wax wanaagsan idiin sameeyo dabadeed, haddaad Rabbiga ka tagtaan, oo aad u adeegtaan ilaahyo qalaad, de markaas wuu soo jeesan doonaa oo wax xun buu idinku samayn doonaa, oo wuu idin baabbi'in doonaa.

21 T he people said to Joshua, “Not so, for we will serve the Lord.”

Markaasaa dadkii waxay Yashuuca ku yidhaahdeen, Maya; laakiinse annagu Rabbiga waannu u adeegi doonnaa.

22 T hen Joshua said to the people, “You have spoken for yourselves that you have chosen to serve the Lord.” And they said, “We have spoken for ourselves.”

Yashuucana wuxuu dadkii ku yidhi, Idinka qudhiinnaa isku marag furaya inaad doorateen Rabbiga oo aad isaga u adeegaysaan. Kolkaasay yidhaahdeen, Annagaa ka marag ah.

23 J oshua said, “So put away the strange gods that are among you. Give your hearts to the Lord, the God of Israel.”

Kolkaasuu yidhi, Haddaba iska fogeeya ilaahyada qalaad oo idinku dhex jira, oo qalbigiinna u jeediya Rabbiga ah Ilaaha reer binu Israa'iil.

24 T he people said to Joshua, “We will serve the Lord our God. We will obey His voice.”

Markaasaa dadkii waxay Yashuuca ku yidhaahdeen, Annagu waxaannu u adeegi doonnaa Rabbiga Ilaahayaga ah, oo weliba codkiisaannu maqli doonnaa.

25 S o Joshua made an agreement with the people that day. And he made Laws for them in Shechem.

Taas daraaddeed maalintaas ayaa Yashuuca dadkii axdi la dhigtay, oo Shekem buu ugu dejiyey qaynuun iyo amar.

26 J oshua wrote these words in the book of the Law of God. Then he took a large stone and set it up there under the tree that was by the holy place of the Lord.

Markaasaa Yashuuca erayadan ku qoray kitaabkii sharcigii Ilaah; oo dhagax weyn buu qaaday, oo wuxuu hoos qotonshay geedkii ku ag yiil taambuugga quduuskaa oo Rabbiga.

27 J oshua said to all the people, “See, this stone will be here to speak against us. For it has heard all the words the Lord spoke to us. So it will be here to speak against you, if you do not stay true to your God.”

Yashuucana wuxuu dadkii oo dhan ku yidhi, Bal ogaada, dhagaxanaa inagu marag furi doonee; waayo, wuxuu maqlay erayadii Rabbiga oo uu inagula hadlay oo dhan; sidaas daraaddeed wuxuu idinku noqon doonaa marag, si aydnaan Ilaahiinna u inkirin. Yashuuca Oo Lagu Aasay Dalkii La Ballanqaaday

28 T hen Joshua sent the people away, each to his own land. The Death of Joshua and Eleazar

Markaasaa Yashuuca dadkii kala diray oo nin waluba wuxuu tegey dalkii dhaxalkiisa ahaa.

29 A fter this, Joshua the son of Nun, the Lord’s servant, died. He was 110 years old.

Oo taas dabadeed addoonkii Rabbiga oo ahaa Yashuuca ina Nuun ayaa dhintay, isagoo jira boqol iyo toban sannadood.

30 T hey buried him in the land he was given in Timnath-serah, in the hill country of Ephraim, north of Mount Gaash.

Oo waxay ku aaseen dalkii uu dhaxalka u helay oo ahaa Timnad Serah oo ku tiil dalkii buuraha lahaa oo reer Efrayim, oo xagga woqooyi ka xigta buurta Gacash.

31 I srael served the Lord all the days of Joshua, and of the leaders who lived after him who had known all the works the Lord had done for Israel.

Reer binu Israa'iilna Rabbigay u adeegi jireen waagii Yashuuca oo dhan, iyo waagii odayaashii ka nolol dambeeyey Yashuuca oo dhan, kuwaas oo ogaa kulli shuqulkii Rabbigu u sameeyey reer binu Israa'iil.

32 T he people of Israel brought the bones of Joseph from Egypt. They buried them in Shechem, in the piece of ground Jacob had bought from the sons of Hamor the father of Shechem for 100 pieces of money. It became the land of Joseph’s children.

Oo lafihii Yuusuf oo reer binu Israa'iil ka soo saareen Masar, waxay ku aaseen Shekem taasoo ah dhulkii yaraa oo Yacquub ka iibsaday reer Xamoor oo ahaa Shekem aabbihiis oo uu ka siistay boqol gogo' oo lacag ah; oo meeshaasu waxay dhaxal u noqotay reer Yuusuf.

33 E leazar the son of Aaron died also. They buried him on the hill at Gibeah that was given to his son Phinehas in the hill country of Ephraim.

Oo Elecaasaar ina Haaruunna wuu dhintay, oo waxay isna ku aaseen buurtii wiilkiisa Fiinexaas oo isaga laga siiyey dalkii buuraha lahaa oo reer Efrayim.
