Bisisu 18
1 Amo esoha, hina bagade dunu Isala: ili soge ganodini esalebe hame ba: i. Isala: ili fi dunu da ilia soge ilegei amo lai dagoi. Be Da: ne fi da soge hame lai. Amaiba: le, ilia da soge gesowale fima: ne hogoi helesu.
In those dayes there was no King in Israel, and at the same time the tribe of Dan sought them an inheritance to dwell in: for vnto that time all their inheritance had not fallen vnto them among the tribes of Israel.
2 Da: ne dunu da ilia sosogo fi amoga bagade dawa: su dunu biyale gala amo soge hogomusa: ilegei. Ilia da amo dunu, Soula moilai bai bagade amola Esadoule soge, amoga asunasi. Ilia da Ifala: ime agolo sogega doaga: loba, Maiga ea diasuga golai.
Therefore the children of Dan sent of their familie, fiue men out of their coastes, euen men expert in warre, out of Zorah and Eshtaol, to viewe the lande and search it out, and saide vnto them, Goe, and search out the lande. Then they came to mount Ephraim to the house of Michah and lodged there.
3 Amoga esalea, ilia da gobele salasu ayeligi ea sia: hisu nababeba: le, e da Lifai dunu ilia dawa: i galu. Ilia da ema asili, amane adole ba: i, “Di da guiguda: adi hamosala: ? Nowa da di guiguda: oule misibala: ?”
When they were in the house of Michah, they knewe the voyce of the yong man the Leuite: and being turned in thither, they saide vnto him, Who brought thee hither? or what makest thou in this place? and what hast thou to doe here?
4 E bu adole i, “Na da Maiga ea hawa: hamonana. Na da ea gobele salasu hawa: hamonanebeba: le, e da nama bidi iaha.”
And he answered them, Thus and thus dealeth Michah with me, and hath hired me, and I am his Priest.
5 Ilia da ema bu adole i, amane, “Di Godema adole ba: ma. Ninia da logoga ahoasea, hahawane ba: ma: bela: ?”
Againe they said vnto him, Aske counsell nowe of God, that we may knowe whether the way which we goe, shalbe prosperous.
6 Gobele salasu dunu da ilima bu adole i, “Mae dawa: ma! Dilia da se hame nabimu. Dilia ahoasea, Hina Gode da dili noga: le ouligilalumu.”
And the Priest sayde vnto them, Goe in peace: for the Lord guideth your way which ye goe.
7 Amaiba: le, amo dunu biyale gala da fisili, asili, La: isi moilaiga doaga: i. Ilia da La: isi dunu ilia hou ba: i. Ilia da Saidounia dunu defele, hahawane, olofoiwane esalu. Ilia hanai huluane, ilia da gagui dagoi. Ilia da eno dunuma hame gegenai. Ilia da Saidounia dunu gadenene hame esalu. Ilia da eno dunu fi ilima hame gilisisu.
Then the fiue men departed and came to Laish, and sawe the people that were therein, which dwelt carelesse, after the maner of the Zidonians, quiet and sure, because no man made any trouble in the lande, or vsurped any dominion: also they were farre from the Zidonians, and had no businesse with other men.
8 Dunu biyale gala da ilia moilaidafa amo Soula amola Esedoule amoga bu doaga: loba, ilia fi dunu da ilia ba: i liligi ilima adoma: ne sia: i.
So they came againe vnto their brethren to Zorah and Eshtaol: and their brethren saide vnto them, What haue ye done?
9 Ilia da bu adole i, “Misa! Ninia La: isi moilai fi doagala: mu da defea. Ninia da ilia soge ba: i dagoi. Soge da noga: idafa. Dilia! Udigili mae esaloma! Hedolo! Amoga asili, amo soge gesowale fima.
And they answered, Arise, that we may goe vp against them: for we haue seene the lande, and surely it is very good, and doe ye sit stil? be not slouthfull to goe and enter to possesse the lande:
10 Amoga asili dilia da ba: mu. Dunu eno da ilima doagala: mu ilia hame dawa: Soge da bagadedafa. Amo ganodini da dilia hanai huluane ba: mu. Gode da amo soge dilima i dagoi.”
(If ye will goe, ye shall come vnto a carelesse people, and the countrey is large) for God hath giuen it into your hande. It is a place which doeth lacke nothing that is in the worlde.
11 Amaiba: le, Da: ne fi dunu 600 da gegema: ne momagele, Soula amola Esedoule fisili asi.
Then there departed thence of the familie of the Danites, from Zorah and from Eshtaol, sixe hundreth men appointed with instruments of warre.
12 Ilia da sogebi amo Gilia: de Yialimi moilai bai bagade Yuda soge ganodini amo ea eso dabe la: ididili amoga abula diasu gaguli esalu. Amaiba: le, amo sogebi ea dio wali da Da: ne Abula Fisisu.
And they went vp, and pitched in Kiriath-iearim in Iudah: wherefore they called that place, Mahaneh-Dan vnto this day: and it is behinde Kiriath-iearim.
13 Amo sogebi fisili asili, ilia da Maiga ea diasu Ifala: ime agolo soge ganodini gala, amoga doaga: i.
And they went thence vnto mount Ephraim, and came to the house of Michah.
14 Amalalu, dunu biyale gala musa: da La: isi soge hogola asi, ilia dogolegei dunuma amane sia: i, “Diasu afae guiguda: da ifaga hamoi ‘gode’ agoaila amo silifaga dedeboi, amo dilia dawa: bela: ? ‘gode’ agoaila eno amola gala amola ‘ifode’ gala. Ninia da adi hamoma: bela: ?”
Then answered the fiue men, that went to spie out the countrey of Laish, and said vnto their brethren, Knowe ye not, that there is in these houses an Ephod, and Teraphim, and a grauen and a molten image? Nowe therefore consider what ye haue to doe.
15 Amaiba: le, ilia da Lifai ayeligi ea esalebe Maiga diasu ganodini asili, Lifai ea hou ema adole ba: i.
And they turned thitherward and came to the house of the yong man the Leuite, euen vnto the house of Michah, and saluted him peaceably.
16 Amoha, Da: ne dadi gagui 600, gegemusa: momagei dagoi, da diasu gagoi ga: suga lelebe ba: i.
And the six hundreth men appointed with their weapons of warre, which were of the children of Dan, stoode by the entring of the gate.
17 Desega ahoasu dunu biyale gala da diasu ganodini golili sa: ili, ilia da ifa ‘gode’ agoaila silifaga dedeboi, amola ‘gode’ agoaila eno huluane amola “ifode” lai dagoi. Lifai gobele salasu dunu amola dadi gagui dunu 600 agoane da logo holei gadenene lelu.
Then the fiue men that went to spie out the land, went in thither, and tooke the grauen image and the Ephod, and the Teraphim, and the molten image: and the Priest stoode in the entring of the gate with the sixe hundreth men, that were appointed with weapons of warre,
18 Dunu da Maiga diasuga, sema liligi wamolamusa: ahoanoba, gobele salasu dunu da ilima amane adole ba: i, “Dilia da adi hamosala: ?”
And the other went into Michahs house and fet the grauen image, the Ephod, and the Teraphim, and the molten image. Then saide the Priest vnto them, What doe ye?
19 Ilia bu adole i, “Ouiya: ma! Maedafa sia: ma! Di amola nini sigi masa! Di da ninia gobele salasu dunu hamomu da defea. Di da dunu afae ea sosogo fi fonobahadi ilima gobele salasu hawa: hamomu da defea hame. Be di da Isala: ili fidafa bagade huluane ilima gobele salasu hawa: hamomu da defea.”
And they answered him, Holde thy peace: lay thine hande vpon thy mouth, and come with vs to be our father and Priest. Whether is it better that thou shouldest be a Priest vnto ye house of one man, or that thou shouldest be a Priest vnto a tribe and to a familie in Israel?
20 Amo hou, gobele salasu dunu da hahawane ba: i. Amaiba: le, e da sema liligi huluane gaguli, ili sigi asi.
And the Priestes heart was glad, and hee tooke the Ephod and the Teraphim, and the grauen image, and went among the people.
21 Ilia sinidigili, logoga asi. Ilia mano, bulamagau amola liligi da ili bisili asi.
And they turned and departed, and put the children, and the cattell, and the substance before them.
22 Ilia da fonobahadi sedade asili, Maiga da ea gadenene fi dunu huluane amo dunuma gegemusa: fa: no bobogei. Ilia da Da: ne dunuma doaga: le,
When they were farre off from the house of Michah, the men that were in the houses neere to Michahs house, gathered together, and pursued after the children of Dan,
23 ilima wele sia: i dagoi. Da: ne dunu da sinidigili, Maiga ema amane adole ba: i, “Adi hou? Dunu bagade da abuli misibala: ?”
And cryed vnto the children of Dan: who turned their faces, and said vnto Michah, What ayleth thee, that thou makest an outcrie?
24 Maiga da bu adole i, “Giadofai dilia dawa: Dilia da na gobele salasu dunu amola ‘gode’ liligi na hamoi amo huluane lale, asi dagoi. Na da liligi eno hame galebe.”
And hee saide, Yee haue taken away my gods, which I made, and the Priest, and go your wayes: and what haue I more? howe then say ye vnto me, what ayleth thee?
25 Da: ne dunu da ema bu adole i, “Di da ouiya: mu da defea. Bai agoane hame hamosea, ninia dunu da di doagala: mu. Amasea, di amola dia sosogo fi huluane da bogogia: mu.”
And the children of Dan sayde vnto him, Let not thy voyce be heard among vs, least angrie fellowes runne vpon thee, and thou lose thy life with the liues of thine housholde.
26 Amalalu, Da: ne dunu da bu logoga ahoanu. Maiga da ba: i dagoi, ilia gasa da ea gasa baligi dagoi. Amaiba: le, e da sinidigili, hi diasuga buhagi.
So the children of Dan went their wayes: and when Michah saw that they were too strong for him, hee turned, and went backe vnto his house.
And they tooke the things which Michah had made, and the Priest which he had, and came vnto Laish, vnto a quiet people and without mistrust, and smote them with the edge of the sworde, and burnt the citie with fire:
28 Da: ne dunu da gobele salasu dunu amola Maiga ea hamoi liligi huluane lalu, asili, La: isi moilai doagala: i. La: isi dunu da olofoiwane, asaboiwane noga: i dunu esalu. Ilia da fago amo ganodini esalu. Amo fago ganodini moilai eno galu amo Bedelihobe. Da: ne dunu da La: isi dunu, uda amola mano huluane medole legei. Ilia diasu huluane ilia da laluga ulagisi. La: isi dunu da gaga: su dunu hame ba: i. Bai ilia da Saidone sogega sedagawane esalu amola ilia eno dunu fi ilima hame gilisisu. Da: ne dunu da La: isi moilai bu gaguli, amo ganodini fi.
And there was none to helpe, because Laish was farre from Zidon, and they had no businesse with other men: also it was in the valley that lyeth by Beth-rehob. After, they built the citie, and dwelt therein,
29 Amo moilai dio La: isi ilia da fisili bu Da: ne dio asuli. Ilia siba eda Da: ne amo Ya: igobe ea mano, amo dawa: le ilia amo dio asuli.
And called the name of the citie Dan, after the name of Dan their father which was borne vnto Israel: howbeit the name of the city was Laish at the beginning.
30 Da: ne dunu da moilai ganodini ogogosu ‘gode’ ilia lai amoma nodone sia: ne gadomusa: bugisi. Yonada: ne (Gesiome egefe amola Mousese ea aowa) da Da: ne fi amo ganodini gobele salasu hawa: hamosu. Egaga fi amola da e bagia amo hawa: hamonanu. Yuda dunu huluane da mugululi asi dagoiba: le fawane fisi.
Then the children of Dan set them vp the grauen image: and Ionathan the sonne of Gershom, the sonne of Manasseh and his sonnes were the Priestes in the tribe of the Danites vntil the day of the captiuitie of the lande.
31 Isala: ili dunu da Abula Diasu Siailou sogebiga gagui amoga Godema nodone sia: ne gadosu. Be amo Abula Diasu da dialea, Maiga ea ogogosu ‘gode’ da Da: ne moilai ganodini dialebe ba: i.
So they set them vp the grauen image, which Michah had made, all the while the house of God was in Shiloh.
