1 O o sannaddii toddobaad, bisheedii shanaad, maalinteedii tobnaad ayaa odayaashii reer binu Israa'iil qaarkood u yimaadeen inay Rabbiga wax weyddiistaan, oo hortayday fadhiisteen.

On the tenth day of the fifth month in the seventh year, some of the leaders of Israel came to ask the Lord’s will, and they sat down in front of me.

2 H addana Eraygii Rabbiga ayaa ii yimid isagoo leh,

The Word of the Lord came to me saying,

3 W iilka Aadamow, odayaasha reer binu Israa'iil la hadal, oo waxaad ku tidhaahdaa, Sayidka Rabbiga ahu wuxuu leeyahay, Ma waxaad u timaadeen inaad wax i weyddiisataan? Sayidka Rabbiga ahu wuxuu leeyahay, Noloshaydaan ku dhaartaye inaanan waxaad i weyddiisataan maqlayn.

“Son of man, speak to the leaders of Israel. Tell them, ‘The Lord God says, “Have you come to ask My will? As I live,” says the Lord God, “I will not let you ask me anything.”’

4 W iilka Aadamow, ma doonaysaa inaad iyaga xukuntid? Ma doonaysaa inaad iyaga xukuntid? Bal iyaga waxyaalihii karaahiyada ahaa ee awowayaashood ogeysii,

Will you judge them, son of man? Will you judge them? Make known to them the sinful things their fathers did.

5 o o waxaad ku tidhaahdaa, Sayidka Rabbiga ahu wuxuu leeyahay, Waagii aan reer binu Israa'iil doortay, oo aan gacantayda kor ugu qaaday oo aan u dhaartay farcanka reer Yacquub, oo aan iyaga dalkii Masar dhexdiisa isku baray, oo aan ugu dhaartay anigoo ku leh, Anigu waxaan ahay Rabbiga Ilaahiinna ah,

Tell them, ‘The Lord God says, “On the day I chose Israel, I raised My hand and made a promise to the children of the family of Jacob and made Myself known to them in the land of Egypt. I made a promise to them, saying, ‘I am the Lord your God.’

6 w aagaas gacantaydaan kor ugu qaaday oo aan iyaga u dhaartay inaan dalkii Masar ka soo bixiyo oo aan soo geliyo dal aan iyaga u soo ilaaleeyey oo caano iyo malab la barwaaqaysan, kaasoo ah ammaantii dalalka oo dhan,

On that day I promised to bring them out of the land of Egypt to a land I had chosen for them, a land flowing with milk and honey, the most beautiful of all lands.

7 o o waxaan iyaga ku idhi, Ninkiin kastaaba waxyaalaha karaahiyada ah ee indhihiisa ha iska xooro, oo sanamyada Masar ha isku nijaasaynina. Aniga ayaa ah Rabbiga Ilaahiinna ah.

I said to them, ‘Each of you get rid of the sinful things you have looked upon. Do not make yourselves sinful with the false gods of Egypt. I am the Lord your God.’

8 L aakiinse way igu caasiyoobeen, oo inay i maqlaan ayay diideen. Ninkoodna waxyaalihii karaahiyada ahaa ee indhihiisa iskama xoorin, oo sanamyadii Masarna kama ay tegin. Markaasaan idhi, Cadhadaydaan ku kor shubi doonaa, si aan iyaga dalka Masar dhexdiisa xanaaqayga ugu dhammaystiro.

But they turned against Me and would not listen to Me. They did not get rid of the sinful things they had looked upon. And they did not turn away from the false gods of Egypt. “Then I said that I would be angry with them. I would send My anger against them in the land of Egypt.

9 L aakiinse magacayga daraaddiis ayaan u shaqeeyey, si uusan ugu nijaasoobin quruumihii ay dhex joogeen hortooda, waayo, iyagoo u jeeda ayaan iyaga isbaray, markaan dalkii Masar ka soo bixiyey.

But I acted for the good of My name. I did what would keep My name clean in the eyes of the nations they lived among, in whose eyes I made Myself known to them by bringing My people out of Egypt.

10 S idaas daraaddeed ayaan iyaga dalkii Masar ka soo bixiyey oo cidlada keenay.

So I led them out of the land of Egypt and brought them into the desert.

11 O o waxaan iyaga siiyey qaynuunnadaydii, xukummadaydiina waan tusay, kuwaasoo ninkii sameeyaaba uu ku noolaanayo.

I gave them My Laws and made known to them My Words, which bring life to anyone who obeys them.

12 O o weliba waxaan siiyey sabtiyadayda inay ahaadaan calaamad aniga iyo iyaga noo dhexaysa, si ay u ogaadaan inaan anigu ahay Rabbiga iyaga quduus ka dhiga.

I gave them My Days of Rest to be something special to see between Me and them, so they would know that I am the Lord Who makes them holy.

13 L aakiinse reer binu Israa'iil way igu caasiyoobeen intii ay cidlada dhex joogeen. Qaynuunnadaydii kuma ay socon, oo xukummadaydiina way diideen, kuwaasoo ninkii sameeyaaba uu ku noolaanayo, oo sabtiyadaydiina si weyn bay nijaas ka dhigeen. Markaasaan idhi, Anigu waxaan korkooda ku shubi doonaa cadhadayda inta ay cidlada dhex joogaan si aan u baabbi'iyo.

But the people of Israel turned against Me in the desert. They did not obey My Laws, and they turned away from My Words which bring life to anyone who obeys them. They made My Days of Rest very sinful. Then I said that I would be angry with them in the desert and destroy them.

14 L aakiinse magacayga daraaddiis ayaan u shaqeeyey, si uusan ugu nijaasoobin quruumihii ay dhex joogeen hortooda, waayo, iyagoo u jeeda ayaan soo bixiyey.

But I acted for the good of My name. I did what would keep My name clean in the eyes of the nations who saw Me bring them out of Egypt.

15 O o weliba gacantaydaan kor ugu qaaday oo ugu dhaaray cidlada dhexdeedii inaanan geeynayn dalkii aan siiyey oo caanaha iyo malabka la barwaaqaysan oo ah ammaantii dalalka oo dhan,

So I promised them in the desert that I would not bring them into the land I had given them, the land flowing with milk and honey, the most beautiful of all lands.

16 m axaa yeelay, xukummadaydii way diideen, oo qaynuunnadaydiina kuma ay socon oo sabtiyadaydii nijaas bay ka dhigeen, waayo, qalbigoodii wuxuu raacay sanamyadoodii.

This was because they turned away from My Laws and did not obey My Words. They did not keep My Days of Rest holy, for they followed after their false gods with all their heart.

17 H abase ahaatee ishaydii way u tudhay si aanan iyaga u baabbi'in, oo cidladiina kuma aanan dhex dhammayn.

Yet I looked on them with pity and did not destroy them. I did not make an end of them in the desert.

18 O o waxaan carruurtoodii ku idhi intii ay cidladii dhex joogeen, Qaynuunnada aabbayaashiin ha ku soconina, oo xukummadoodana ha dhawrina, oo sanamyadoodana ha isku nijaasaynina.

“And I said to their children in the desert, ‘Do not keep the laws of your fathers, or follow their ways, or make yourselves sinful with their false gods.

19 A niga ayaa ah Rabbiga Ilaahiinna ah. Qaynuunnadayda ku socda, oo xukummadayda xajiya oo sameeya,

I am the Lord your God. Keep My Laws and obey My Words.

20 o o sabtiyadayda quduus ka dhiga, oo iyana waxay ahaan doonaan calaamad aniga iyo idinka inoo dhexaysa, si aad u ogaataan inaan anigu ahay Rabbiga Ilaahiinna ah.

Keep My Days of Rest holy, and they will be something special to see between Me and you. Then you will know that I am the Lord your God.’

21 L aakiinse carruurtiina way igu caasiyoobeen, oo qaynuunnadaydiina kuma ay socon, xukummadaydiina inay sameeyaan ma xajin, kuwaasoo ninkii sameeyaaba uu ku noolaanayo, oo sabtiyadaydiina nijaas bay ka dhigeen. Markaasaan idhi, Cadhadaydaan ku kor shubi doonaa, si aan xanaaqayga iyaga ugu dhammaystiro cidlada dhexdeeda.

But the children turned against Me. They did not keep My Laws or obey My Words which bring life to anyone who obeys them. They did not keep My Days of Rest holy. So I said I would be angry with them. I would send My anger against them in the desert.

22 H abase ahaatee gacantaydii waan ka soo celiyey, oo magacayga daraaddiis baan u shaqeeyey, si uusan ugu nijaasoobin quruumaha hortooda, waayo, iyagoo u jeeda ayaan soo bixiyey.

But I held My hand back, and acted for the good of My name, to keep it clean in the eyes of the nations who saw Me bring them out of Egypt.

23 O o weliba gacantaydaan kor ugu qaaday oo ugu dhaartay cidlada dhexdeedii inaan iyaga quruumaha ku kala dhex eryi doono, oo aan waddammada ku dhex firdhin doono,

And I promised them in the desert that I would send them everywhere among the nations and spread them out among the lands.

24 m axaa yeelay, xukummadaydii ma ay samayn, laakiinse qaynuunnadaydii way diideen, oo sabtiyadaydiina nijaas bay ka dhigeen, oo indhahooduna waxay raaceen sanamyadii awowayaashood.

This is because they had not obeyed My Words. They had turned away from My Laws and did not keep My Days of Rest holy. And they worshiped the false gods of their fathers.

25 O o weliba iyagaan siiyey qaynuunno aan wanaagsanayn, iyo xukummo ayan ku noolaan karayn,

Then I gave them laws that were not good, and words they could not live by.

26 o o waxaan iyagii ku nijaaseeyey hadiyadahoodii, maxaa yeelay, dab bay u dhex marsiiyeen wixii maxal fura oo dhan, si aan iyaga cidla uga dhigo, si ay u ogaadaan inaan anigu Rabbiga ahay.

And I let them become sinful because of their gifts. I let them give all their first-born sons as burnt gifts. This was to punish them and show them that I am the Lord.”’

27 S idaas aawadeed Wiilka Aadamow, waxaad la hadashaa reer binu Israa'iil, oo waxaad ku tidhaahdaa, Sayidka Rabbiga ahu wuxuu leeyahay, Weliba taasay awowayaashiin igu caayeen, wayna igu xadgudbeen.

“So, son of man, speak to the people of Israel. Tell them, ‘The Lord God says, “This is another way that your fathers have brought shame to My name by not being faithful to Me.

28 W aayo, markaan dalka keenay, kaasoo aan gacanta ugu qaaday oo aan ugu dhaartay inaan iyaga siin doono ayay arkeen kur kasta oo dheer iyo geed kasta oo weyn, oo waxay halkaas ku bixiyeen allabaryadoodii, oo qurbaankoodii iga cadhaysiiyey ayay halkaas ku soo bixiyeen, oo weliba halkaasay caraftoodii udgoonayd ku sameeyeen, oo halkaasay qurbaannadoodii cabniinka ku daadiyeen.

I brought them into the land I promised to give them. And when they saw all the high hills and trees with many leaves, they gave their gifts on all of them and made Me angry. They also burned special perfume there, and poured out their drink gifts.

29 M arkaasaan ku idhi, Meesha sare oo aad tagtaan maxay tahay? Ilaa maantadan la joogo waxaa magaceeda la yidhaahdaa Baamaah. Xukun Iyo Dib U Soo Celin

Then I said to them, ‘What is this high place you go to?’ So it is called Bamah to this day.”’

30 S idaas daraaddeed waxaad reer binu Israa'iil ku tidhaahdaa, Sayidka Rabbiga ahu wuxuu leeyahay, Ma waxaad isu nijaasaysaan sidii awowayaashiin isu nijaaseeyeen oo kale? Oo ma waxaad ka daba gashaan waxyaalahooda karaahiyada ah sida naag ninkeed ka dhillowda oo kale?

So tell the people of Israel, ‘The Lord God says, “Will you make yourselves sinful in the same way your fathers did, and go after their sinful things?

31 O o markaad hadiyadihiinna bixisaan, oo aad wiilashiinna dabka dhex marsiisaan ma waxaad isku nijaasaysaan sanamyadiinna oo dhan ilaa maantadan la joogo? Haddaba reer binu Israa'iilow, miyaan maqlaa waxaad i weyddiisanaysaan? Sayidka Rabbiga ahu wuxuu leeyahay, Noloshaydaan ku dhaartaye, Maqli maayo waxaad i weyddiisataan.

When you give your gifts and make your sons go through the fire, you are making yourselves sinful with all your false gods to this day. Am I to let you question Me, O people of Israel? As I live,” says the Lord God, “I will not let you ask Me anything.

32 O o waxa maankiinna soo galaana innaba ma ay ahaan doonaan, waayo, waxaad isku tidhaahdaan, Annagu waxaannu noqon doonnaa sida quruumaha kale, iyo sida qolooyinka waddammada deggan oo kale si aannu qoryo iyo dhagax ugu adeegno.

You say, ‘We will be like the nations, like the people of the lands, who serve wood and stone.’ But what you have in mind will never happen. Israel Will Come Back to God

33 S ayidka Rabbiga ahu wuxuu leeyahay, Noloshaydaan ku dhaartaye, hubaal boqor baan idiinku ahaan doonaa gacan xoog badan iyo dhudhun fidsan iyo cadho la soo daadshay,

“As I live,” says the Lord God, “I will be King over you, and will rule with a powerful hand, a strong arm, and with anger.

34 o o dadyowga waan idinka soo dhex bixin doonaa, oo waddammadii aad ku kala dhex firidheen waxaan idinkaga soo ururin doonaa gacan xoog badan iyo dhudhun fidsan iyo cadho la soo daadshay.

I will bring you out of the nations and countries where you have been divided. I will gather you together with a powerful hand, a strong arm, and with anger.

35 O o waxaan idiin keeni doonaa cidlada dadyowga, oo halkaasaan fool ka fool idinkula xaajoon doonaa.

I will bring you into the desert of the nations, and there I will punish you face to face.

36 S idii aan awowayaashiin cidladii dalka Masar ugula xaajooday oo kale ayaan idinkana idiinla xaajoon doonaa, ayaa Sayidka Rabbiga ahu leeyahay.

As I punished your fathers in the desert of Egypt, so I will punish you,” says the Lord God.

37 O o waxaan idin soo marin doonaa usha hoosteeda, oo axdigaan idinku xidhi doonaa.

“I will hold power over you and make you obey the agreement.

38 M arkaasaan idinka dhex sooci doonaa caasiyiinta iyo kuwa igu xadgudba. Waxaan iyaga ka soo bixin doonaa dalka ay qariib ahaanta u joogaan, laakiinse dalka reer binu Israa'iil sooma ay geli doonaan, oo idinkuna waxaad ogaan doontaan inaan anigu Rabbiga ahay.

I will take away from among you all those who sin or who turn against Me. I will bring them out of the land where they are living, but they will not go into the land of Israel. Then you will know that I am the Lord.

39 R eer binu Israa'iilow, Sayidka Rabbiga ahu wuxuu leeyahay, Haddeydnan i dhegaysanayn, taga, oo haddan iyo hadda dabadeedba midkiin kastaaba sanamyadiisa ha u adeego, laakiinse waa inaydaan magacayga quduuska ah mar dambe nijaas kaga dhigin hadiyadihiinna iyo sanamyadiinna.

As for you, O people of Israel,” the Lord God says, “Go and serve your false gods, every one of you, now and later if you will not listen to Me. Do not ever again bring shame to My holy name with your gifts and your false gods.

40 W aayo, Sayidka Rabbiga ahu wuxuu leeyahay, Reer binu Israa'iil oo dhan kulligoodba dalka dhexdiisa ayay iigu adeegi doonaan buurtayda quduuska ah taasoo ah buurta dheer ee dalka reer binu Israa'iil, oo halkaasaan iyaga ku aqbali doonaa. Oo halkaasaan qurbaannadiinna iyo inta ugu horraysa ee hadiyadihiinna, iyo waxyaalihiinna quduuska ah oo dhanba idinku weyddiisan doonaa.

For on My holy mountain, the high mountain of Israel,” says the Lord God, “all the people of Israel will serve Me in the land. There I will receive them. And there I will ask for the best of your gifts, with all your holy things.

41 O o sida caraf udgoon baan idiin aqbali doonaa markaan dadyowga idinka soo dhex bixiyo oo aan waddammadii aad ku kala dhex firidheen idinka soo ururiyo, oo dhexdiinnaan quduus ku ahaan doonaa quruumaha hortooda.

I will receive you as the pleasing smell of special perfume, when I bring you out of the nations and gather you from the different lands where you have been sent. And I will prove Myself holy among you in the eyes of the nations.

42 O o waxaad ogaan doontaan inaan anigu Rabbiga ahay, markaan idin dhex keeno dalka reer binu Israa'iil, kaasoo ah dalkii aan gacanta ugu qaaday awowayaashiin oo aan ugu dhaartay inaan iyaga siinayo.

Then you will know that I am the Lord, when I bring you into the land of Israel, the land I promised to give to your fathers.

43 O o halkaasaad jidadkiinnii iyo falimihiinnii aad isku nijaasayseenba ku soo xusuusan doontaan, oo waxyaalihiinnii sharka ahaa ee aad samayseen oo dhan ayaad isu nici doontaan.

There you will remember your ways and all the bad things you did to make yourselves sinful. And you will hate yourselves in your own eyes for all the sinful things you have done.

44 S ayidka Rabbiga ahu wuxuu leeyahay, Reer binu Israa'iilow, iyadoo aan ahayn sidii jidadkiinnii sharka ahaa ay ahaayeen, amase sidii falimihiinnii qudhunka ahaa ay ahaayeen, markaan magacayga aawadiis idiinku shaqeeyo ayaad ogaan doontaan inaan anigu Rabbiga ahay. Wax Sii Sheegid Ka Gees Ah Dhanka Koonfureed

You will know that I am the Lord when I honor My name by being good to you even though your ways have been sinful and you have done many sinful things, O people of Israel,” says the Lord God.’” Words against the South

45 O o haddana Eraygii Rabbiga ayaa ii yimid isagoo leh,

The Word of the Lord came to me saying,

46 W iilka Aadamow, wejigaaga xagga koonfureed u sii jeedi, oo hadal xagga koonfureed ka gees ah ku hadal, oo waxaad wax ka sii sheegtaa kaynta duurka xagga koonfureed ku taal;

“Son of man, look toward the south. And speak out against the south and against the land of many trees in the Negev.

47 o o waxaad kaynta koonfureed ku tidhaahdaa, Rabbiga eraygiisa maqal: Sayidka Rabbiga ahu wuxuu leeyahay, Bal ogow, dab baan kugu dhex shidi doonaa, oo wuxuu wada baabbi'in doonaa geed kasta oo qoyan oo dhexdaada ku yaal iyo geed kasta oo qallalanba. Ololka ololayana lama demin doono, oo weji kasta oo tan iyo xagga koonfureed iyo ilaa xagga woqooyi joogaana isaguu ku guban doonaa.

Say to the land of trees in the Negev, ‘Hear the Word of the Lord. The Lord God says, “See, I am about to start a fire that will destroy all of your green trees and all of your dry trees. The hot fire will not be put out, and every face from south to north will be burned by it.

48 O o binu-aadmiga oo dhammuna waxay wada arki doonaan in aniga Rabbiga ahu aan dabkaas shiday, oo innaba lama demin doono.

Everyone will see that I, the Lord, have made the fire. It will not be put out.”’”

49 M arkaasaan idhi, Sayidow, Rabbiyow, waxay iga yidhaahdaan, Sow isagu masaalooyin kuma hadlin?

Then I said, “O Lord God! They are saying of me, ‘Is he not just telling picture-stories?’”
