Oweruza 6
1 Aisraeli anachitanso zinthu zoyipira Yehova, choncho Yehova anawapereka mʼmanja mwa Amidiyani kwa zaka zisanu ndi ziwiri.
Jo-Israel nochako otimo timbe mamono e nyim Jehova Nyasaye, kendo kuom higni abiriyo nochiwogi e lwet jo-Midian.
2 Amidiyani anapondereza Aisraeli. Tsono chifukwa cha Amidiyaniwa, Aisraeli anakonza malo obisalamo mʼmapiri ndi mʼmapanga. Anamanganso malinga.
Nikech jo-Midian ne keto ji gi tich matek mar achuna, jo-Israel nogero kuonde pondo e tiend got, rogo kod kuonde moko ma ginyalo dakie.
3 Aisraeli amati akadzala mbewu, Amidiyani, Aamaleki ndi anthu ena akummawa amabwera ndi kudzawathira nkhondo.
Kinde ka kinde mane jo-Israel opidho cham mag-gi, jo-Midian, jo-Amalek kod jogo moa yo wuok chiengʼ ne monjo piny.
4 Iwo anamanga misasa mʼdzikomo ndi kuwononga zokolola zawo zonse mpaka ku Gaza, ndipo sanawasiyireko chamoyo chilichonse Aisraeliwo, kaya nkhosa kapena ngʼombe ndi bulu yemwe.
Negichokore e pinyno kendo negiketho cham duto nyaka Gaza kendo onge gima ngima kaka rombe kata dhok kata punde mane giweyo e piny Israel.
5 Iwo ankabwera ndi zoweta zawo ndi matenti awo omwe. Ankabwera ambiri ngati dzombe, motero kuti kunali kovuta kuwawerenga anthuwo ndi ngamira zawo. Tsono iwo ankabwera ndi kuwononga dziko lonse.
Negibiro gi jambgi kod hembegi machal gi kweth mar dede. Kar kwan jogo kaachiel gi ngamia mag-gi ne tek ngʼeyo, kendo negimonjo pinyno mi gikethe.
6 Aisraeli anasauka chifukwa cha Amidiyani ndipo analirira kwa Yehova kuti awathandize.
Jo-Midian nokelone jo-Israel dhier maduongʼ mane giywakne Jehova Nyasaye mondo okonygi.
7 Pamene Aisraeli analirira kwa Yehova chifukwa cha Amidiyaniwo,
Ka jo-Israel noywak ne Jehova Nyasaye nikech jo-Midian,
8 Iye anawatumizira mneneri amene anati, “Yehova Mulungu wa Israeli akuti, ‘Ndine amene ndinakutsogolerani kuchokera ku Igupto. Ndinakutulutsani mʼdziko la ukapolo.
nooronegi janabi, mane owachonegi niya, “Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasach Israel, wacho: Nagolou e piny Misri, kuma ne unie wasumbini.
9 Ine ndinakupulumutsani ku ulamuliro wa Igupto komanso mʼmanja mwa amene amakuzunzani. Ndinawathamangitsa adani anu inu mukufika, ndikukupatsani dziko lawo.’
Ne agolou e loch jo-Misri kendo aresou e lwet joma ne sandou. Ne ariembogi gia e nyimu kendo amiyou pinygi.
10 Ndipo ndinakuwuzani kuti, ‘Ine ndine Yehova Mulungu wanu; musapembedze Milungu ya Aamori amene mukukhala mʼdziko lawo.’ Koma inu simunandimvere.”
Ne awachonu niya, ‘An Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu; kik ulam nyiseche jo-Amor, makoro udak e pinygi.’ To pod ok udewo winja.”
11 Tsiku lina mngelo wa Yehova anabwera ku Ofura ndi kukhala pansi pa tsinde pa mtengo wa thundu umene unali wa Yowasi Mwabiezeri. Tsono Gideoni, mwana wake nʼkuti pa nthawiyo akupuntha tirigu mʼmalo ofinyira mphesa mowabisalira Amidiyani.
Malaika mar Jehova Nyasaye nobiro mobet e tiend yiend ober moro mantiere Ofra mane mar Joash ma ja-Abiezer, kama wuod Gideon ne dinoe ngano mondo kik jo-Midian yude.
12 Tsono mngelo wa Yehova uja anamuonekera Gideoni nati kwa iye, “Yehova ali nawe, iwe munthu wamphamvu ndi wolimba mtima.”
Ka malaika nofwenyore ne Gideon, nowacho niya, “Jehova Nyasaye ni kodi, in jalweny maratego.”
13 Gideoni anayankha, “Koma mbuye wanga, ngati Yehova ali nafedi, nʼchifukwa chiyani zonsezi zationekera? Nanga ntchito zake zodabwitsa zimene makolo athu anatiwuza pamene anati, ‘Yehova anatitulutsa ku dziko la Igupto,’ zili kuti? Koma tsopano Yehova watitaya ndi kutipereka mʼmanja mwa Amidiyani.”
To Gideon nodwoke niya, “Ruodha, ka Jehova Nyasaye nikodwa, to angʼo momiyo magi duto osetimorenwa? Ere honni duto mane kwerewa onyisowa kagiwacho ni, ‘Donge Jehova Nyasaye ema nogolowa e piny Misri?’ To koro Jehova Nyasaye osejwangʼowa mi oketowa e lwet jo-Midian.”
14 Yehova anamuyangʼana namuwuza kuti, “Pita ndi mphamvu zomwe uli nazo, ukapulumutse Aisraeli mʼmanja mwa Amidiyani. Kodi si ndine amene ndakutuma?”
Jehova Nyasaye nodwoke niya, “Gi teko ma in-go, dhiyo kendo ires jo-Israel e lwet jo-Midian. Donge an ema aori?”
15 Koma Gideoni anafunsa kuti, “Kodi Ambuye anga ine ndingapulumutse bwanji Israeli? Mbumba yanga ndi yopanda mphamvu mu fuko la Manase, ndiponso ine ndine wamngʼono kwambiri mʼbanja mwa abambo anga.”
Gideon nopenje niya, “To Ruoth, ere kaka anyalo reso jo-Israel? Anywolana ema nyape mogik ei Manase, kendo an ema atin e odwa.”
16 Yehova anamuyankha kuti, “Ine ndidzakhala nawe, ndipo Amidiyaniwo udzawagonjetsa ngati munthu mmodzi.”
Jehova Nyasaye nodwoko niya, “Anabed kodi, kendo ibiro nego jo-Midian duto.”
17 Gideoni anati, “Ngati tsopano mwandikomera mtima, ndionetseni chizindikiro kusonyeza kuti ndinudi mukuyankhula ndi ine.
Gideon nodwoko niya, “Ka koro ayudo ngʼwono e nyim wangʼi, to miya ranyisi ni in ema iwuoyo koda.
18 Chonde musachoke msanga mpaka nditabwerera kwa inu ndi chopereka changa cha chakudya kudzachipereka kwa inu.” Ndipo Yehova anamuwuza kuti, “Ine ndikudikira mpaka utabweranso.”
Kiyie to kik iwuog ka nyaka abi kendo akel misango mara mi achiwe e nyimi.” To Jehova Nyasaye nowacho niya, “Abiro rito nyaka iduogi.”
19 Gideoni analowa mʼnyumba, ndipo anakakonza mwana wambuzi, nakonzanso makeke wopanda yisiti a ufa wa makilogalamu khumi. Nayika nyamayo mʼdengu ndipo msuzi wake anawuthira mu mʼphika. Anabwera nazo ndi kukazipereka kwa mngelo uja pa tsinde pa mtengo wa thundu paja.
Gideon nodhi, moyangʼo nyadiel kendo otedo, bangʼe nokawo mogo madirom kilo piero ariyo gariyo mi olosogo makati ma ok oketie thowi koketo ringʼo e adita kod kate e tawo, nokelogi oko kendo ochiwogi ne Jehova Nyasaye e tiend yiend ober.
20 Mngelo wa Mulungu anamuwuza iye kuti, “Tenga nyamayi pamodzi ndi makekewa, uziyike pa mwala uwu ndi kuthirapo msuziwu.” Ndipo Gideoni anatero.
Malaika mar Nyasaye nowachone niya, “Kaw ringʼono kod makati ma ok oketie thowi, ketgi e lwandani, kendo iol kado piny.” Kendo Gideon notimo kamano.
21 Mngelo wa Yehova anatenga msonga ya ndodo imene inali mʼmanja mwake nakhudza nayo nyama ndi makeke aja. Nthawi yomweyo moto unabuka pa thanthwepo ndi kupsereza nyama yonse ndi makeke aja. Ndipo mngelo wa Yehova sanaonekenso.
Malaika mar Jehova Nyasaye nomulo ringʼo kod makati ma ok oketie thowi gi wi luth mane otingʼo e lwete. Mach nowuok e lwanda, mowangʼo ringʼo kod makati pep. Kendo malaika mar Jehova Nyasaye nolal nono e wangʼe.
22 Apo Gideoni anazindikira kuti analidi mngelo wa Ambuye, ndipo anati, “Kalanga ine Yehova Wamphamvuzonse! Ine ndaona mngelo wa Yehova ndi maso!”
Kane Gideon ofwenyo ni ne en malaika mar Jehova Nyasaye, nowacho niya, “Yaye, Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto! Aseneno malaika mar Jehova Nyasaye wangʼ gi wangʼ!”
23 Koma Yehova anamuwuza kuti, “Mtendere ukhale ndi iwe! Usachite mantha, sufa ayi.”
To Jehova Nyasaye nowachone niya, “Bed gi kwe! Kik iluor. Ok nitho.”
24 Choncho Gideoni anamanga guwa lansembe la Yehova pamenepo ndipo analitcha kuti, Yehova ndiye mtendere. Kufikira lero lino guwali lilipo ku Ofura wa Mwabiezeri.
Omiyo Gideon nogero ne Jehova Nyasaye kendo mar misango mi oluongo kanyo ni Jehova Nyasaye en Kwe. Kendono pod ni Ofra kuno e piny jo-Abiezer nyaka chil kawuono.
25 Usiku womwewo Yehova anati kwa Gideoni, “Tenga ngʼombe ya mphongo ya abambo ako, ngʼombe ina yachiwiri ya zaka zisanu ndi ziwiri ndipo ugwetse guwa la Baala limene abambo ako ali nalo, ndi kugwetsanso fano la Asera limene lili pafupi pake.
Otienono Jehova Nyasaye nowachone niya, “Kaw rwath mar ariyo koa e kweth wuonu, ma hike abiriyo. Muk kendo wuonu mar misango ne Baal kendo ingʼad siro mar Ashera man bute.
26 Kenaka umangire Yehova Mulungu wako guwa lansembe ndi miyala yoyala bwino pamwamba pa chiwunda chimenecho. Utenge ngʼombe ya mphongo yachiwiri ija ndipo uyipereke ngati nsembe yopsereza pogwiritsa ntchito mitengo ya fano la Asera imene udule ngati nkhunizo.”
Eka iger kendo mar misango malongʼo ne Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu ewi kama otingʼore maloni mondo ichiw rwath mar ariyo kaka misango miwangʼo pep, kitiyo gi yiend Ashera mane ingʼado.”
27 Choncho Gideoni anatenga antchito ake khumi nachita monga Yehova anamuwuzira. Ndipo popeza ankaopa anthu a pa banja lake ndiponso anthu a mʼmudzimo sanachite zimenezi masana koma usiku.
Omiyo Gideon nokawo jotijene apar kendo notimo kaka Jehova Nyasaye nowachone. Notimo tijno gotieno ma ok odiechiengʼ nikech noluoro jo-dalagi kod joodgi.
28 Anthu a mu mzindamo atadzuka mʼmamawa anangoona guwa la Baala litagwetsedwa ndi fano la Asera limene linali pamwamba pake litadulidwa ndiponso ngʼombe yamphongo yachiwiri ija itaperekedwa ngati nsembe yopsereza pa guwa limene linamangidwa lija.
Gokinyi ka joma ni e dalano nochiewo, negiyudo ka kar wangʼo misango mar Baal omuki, ka yiend Ashera mane ni bute bende ongʼadi kendo ka rwath mar ariyo ochiw ka misango e kendo mar misango mane oger manyien!
29 Iwo anafunsana wina ndi mnzake, “Wachita zimenezi ndani?” Atafufuza ndi kufunsafunsa, analingalira kuti, “Gideoni mwana wa Yowasi ndiye wachita zimenezi.”
Negipenjore kendgi niya, “En ngʼa motimo ma?” Kane ginono matut, nowachnegi niya, “Gideon wuod Joash ema osetimo ma.”
30 Ndipo anthuwo anawuza Yowasi kuti, “Tulutsa mwana wako, ayenera kufa chifukwa wagumula guwa lansembe la Baala ndipo wadula fano la Asera lomwe linali pamwamba pake.”
Jo-dalano nowachone Joash niya, “Gol wuodi oko. Nyaka otho nikech oseketho kendo mar misango mar Baal kendo ongʼado yiend Ashera man bute.”
31 Koma Yowasi anawuza anthu amene anamuzungulirawo kuti, “Kodi inu mukuti mukhale woyankhulira Baala mlandu? Kodi ndinu amene mukuti mumupulumutse? Amene akufuna kumumenyera nkhondo Baala akhala atafa pofika mmawa! Ngati Baalayo ndi mulungudi, musiyeni adzimenyere yekha nkhondo popeza munthu wina wamugwetsera guwa lansembe lake.”
To Joash nodwoko oganda mager mane ni bute niya, “Un ema uwuoyo e lo Baal? Utemo rese? Ngʼato angʼata mokedone enonege gokinyi! Ka Baal en nyasaye, to onyalo resore kende owuon kuom ngʼama muko kendone mar misango.”
32 Choncho tsiku limenelo Gideoni anatchedwa, Yeru-Baala, kutanthauza kuti, “Baala alimbana naye, popeza anagwetsa guwa lake la nsembe.”
Omiyo odiechiengno negichako Gideon ni Jerub-Baal, kagiwacho niya, “We Baal otiek kode,” nikech nomuko kendo mar misango mar Baal.
33 Tsopano Amidiyani, Amaleki ndi anthu ena akummawa anasonkhana ndipo atawoloka Yorodani anakamanga zinthando za nkhondo ku chigwa cha Yezireeli.
Koro jo-Midian duto gi jo-Amalek kod jogo moa yo wuok chiengʼ noriwore e lweny ma gingʼado aora Jordan kendo gigo kambi e Holo mar Jezreel.
34 Ndipo Mzimu wa Yehova unatsikira pa Gideoni, ndipo anayimba lipenga kuyitana Abiezeri kuti amutsatire iye.
Eka Roho mar Jehova Nyasaye nobiro kuom Gideon, kendo nogoyo turumbete, kowachoni jo-Abiezer mondo oluw bangʼe.
35 Iye anatumiza amithenga mʼdziko lonse la Manase kuti akamenye nkhondo ndipo Amanase anayitanidwanso kuti amutsate. Anatumanso amithenga kwa Aseri, Azebuloni ndi Anafutali, ndipo onsewo anapita kukakumana naye.
Nooro joote odhi Manase duto, koluongogi mondo gitingʼ gige lweny, kendo gidhi ir Asher, Zebulun kod Naftali, mondo gin bende gidhi girom kode.
36 Gideoni anati kwa Mulungu, “Ngati mudzapulumutsa Israeli ndi dzanja langa monga mwalonjezeramu,
Gideon nowachone Nyasaye niya, “Ka inires jo-Israel kokalo kuoma kaka ne isingo,
37 onani, ine ndiyala ubweya wankhosa pa malo opunthira tirigu. Ngati mame adzagwera pa ubweya wankhosa pokhapa, pa nthaka ponse pakhala powuma, ndiye ndidziwa kuti mudzapulumutsadi Israeli ndi dzanja langa monga mwanenera.”
to abiro keto pien rombo kar dino cham. Kapo ni pien rombono thoo omokoe, to lowo molwore odongʼ kotwo, eka anangʼe ni ibiro reso jo-Israel gi lweta kaka ne iwacho.”
38 Ndipo zimenezi zinachitikadi. Gideoni atadzuka mʼmamawa ndi kuwufinya ubweya uja, anafinya madzi odzaza mtsuko.
Kendo mano e gima notimore. Gideon nochiewo gokinyi mangʼich; nobiyo pien-no ma thoo owuok madirom bakul achiel.
39 Kenaka Gideoni anati kwa Mulungu, “Musandikwiyire. Mundilole ndiyankhule kamodzi kokhaka. Ndiyeseko kamodzi kokha ndi ubweyawu kuti pa ubweya pokhapa pakhale powuma koma pa nthaka ponse pakhale ponyowa ndi mame.”
Eka Gideon nowachone Nyasaye niya, “Kik iyi wangʼ koda. We mondo akwayi kwayo achiel makende. Yiena mana tem achiel kende gi pien. E kindeno, pien mondo obed kotwo, to lowo molwore obed gi thoo.”
40 Ndipo Mulungu anachita zomwezo usiku umenewo. Pa ubweya pokha panali powuma, koma pa nthaka ponse panagwa mame.
Otienono Nyasaye notimo kamano. Pien kende ema ne otwo; to lowo duto molwore ne thoo omoke.
