Oweruza 6

1 Aisraeli anachitanso zinthu zoyipira Yehova, choncho Yehova anawapereka mʼmanja mwa Amidiyani kwa zaka zisanu ndi ziwiri.

Hagi 40'a kafuma evigeno'a ete Israeli vahe'mo'za Ra Anumzamofo avurera havi zamavu'zamava hu'naze. E'ina hazageno'a Ra Anumzamo'a Midieni vahe zamazampi Israeli vahera zamavarentegeno, 7ni'a kafufi kegava huzmante'naze.

2 Amidiyani anapondereza Aisraeli. Tsono chifukwa cha Amidiyaniwa, Aisraeli anakonza malo obisalamo mʼmapiri ndi mʼmapanga. Anamanganso malinga.

Ana'ma higeno'a Midieni vahe'mo'za hanavenentake hu'za Israeli vahera zamazeri havizantfa hazageno, Israeli vahe'mo'za agona agona franeki'za, havegampine, vihuma hunte'nazafine fraki'naze.

3 Aisraeli amati akadzala mbewu, Amidiyani, Aamaleki ndi anthu ena akummawa amabwera ndi kudzawathira nkhondo.

Hagi Israeli vahe'mo'zama hozama antazageno'a, Midieni vahe'ma, Ameleki vahe'ma, zage hanati kazigati vahe'ma hu'za eme hara huzamante'naze.

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.

Ana mopafi seli nona eme ki'za mani'ne'za maka hozazimia agu'za ru'za vu'za Gaza mopare ome atre'naze. Magore hu'za Israeli vahe'mofo zana otre'za maka sipisipi afu'ma, meme afu'ma, bulimakao afu'ma, Donki afutaminena avre vagare'za vu'naze.

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.

Hagi ana ha' vahetmima e'nazana, maka afu'krazmine seli nona eme ki'za mani'ne'za Israeli vahe hoza otre'za ne'za eri hana hu'naze. Kenumo'za hare'za azankna hu'za ohampriga'a vahe'mo'za Israeli vahe mopafina emanine'za maka tra'zana vatri'za nevagarazageno rampa'age hu'ne.

6 Aisraeli anasauka chifukwa cha Amidiyani ndipo analirira kwa Yehova kuti awathandize.

E'ina hu'za Israeli vahera zamazeri haviza hazage'za, Israeli vahe'mo'za tusi zamagaku nehu'za zamazama hinogura Ra Anumzamofontega zavi krafage hu'naze.

7 Pamene Aisraeli analirira kwa Yehova chifukwa cha Amidiyaniwo,

Hagi Midieni vahe'mo'zama zamazeri havizama hazageno'a Israeli vahe'mo'za zamazama hanigura Ra Anumzamofontega krafagea hazageno,

8 Iye anawatumizira mneneri amene anati, “Yehova Mulungu wa Israeli akuti, ‘Ndine amene ndinakutsogolerani kuchokera ku Igupto. Ndinakutulutsani mʼdziko la ukapolo.

Ra Anumzamo'a kasanampa ne' huntegeno Israeli vahetega eno amanage eme hu'ne, Ra Anumzana Israeli vahe Anumzamo'a amanage hie, Isipima kazokzo eri'zama e'nerita mani'nazage'na, Nagra ana kazokzo erizampintira tamavre'na atirami'noe.

9 Ine ndinakupulumutsani ku ulamuliro wa Igupto komanso mʼmanja mwa amene amakuzunzani. Ndinawathamangitsa adani anu inu mukufika, ndikukupatsani dziko lawo.’

Isipi vahe'mofo zamazampinti'ene knama tamiza tamazeri havizama nehaza vahe'mokizmi zamazampintira Nagra tamagura vazi'na tamavre'na e'na ama mopafima mani'naza ha' vahetimia eme zamahe kasopenetre'na, ama mopa eri tami'noe.

10 Ndipo ndinakuwuzani kuti, ‘Ine ndine Yehova Mulungu wanu; musapembedze Milungu ya Aamori amene mukukhala mʼdziko lawo.’ Koma inu simunandimvere.”

Hagi amanage hu'na neramasamue, Nagra Ra Anumzana tamagri Anumza mani'noanki, ama mani'naza mopafi Amori vahe anumzantaminkura korora osiho hu'na hu'noanagi, Nagri kea ontahita ke'ni'a rutagre'naze huno hu'ne.

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.

Anante Ra Anumzamofo ankeromo'a eno, Ofra kumate oki zafa agafare emani'ne. Hagi Abiezeri nagapinti ne' Joasi nemofo Gidioni'a Midieni vahe'mo'zama witi'ama erizanku koro huno wainima regatati'ma nehaza kerifi mani'neno, witi hona'a refuzafupe'ne.

12 Tsono mngelo wa Yehova uja anamuonekera Gideoni nati kwa iye, “Yehova ali nawe, iwe munthu wamphamvu ndi wolimba mtima.”

Ra Anumzamofo ankeromo'a Gidioninte ehanatino amanage hu'ne. Hankavenentake sondia nera, Ra Anumzamo'a kagri'ene mani'ne.

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.”

Anante Gidioni'a kenona huno, ramoke, Ra Anumzamo'ma tagranema mani'negeno'a nahigeno amanahu zana tagritera efore nehie? Hagi Ra Anumzamo'ma erifore hige'za tagehe'zama tasami'naza kaguva zana iga me'ne? Isipitira Ra Anumzamo'a tavreno e'neanangi, menina Ra Anumzamo'a avresra huranteno Midieni vahe zamazampintira tavrente'ne.

14 Yehova anamuyangʼana namuwuza kuti, “Pita ndi mphamvu zomwe uli nazo, ukapulumutse Aisraeli mʼmanja mwa Amidiyani. Kodi si ndine amene ndakutuma?”

Anante Ra Anumzamo'a rukrahe huno amanage huno asami'ne, Midieni vahe zamazampintira hankavema eri'nana hankavenu ome ha' hunka Israeli vahera zamagu'vaziogu Nagra hunegantoe.

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.”

Hianagi Gidioni'a amanage huno kenona hu'ne, Ra Anumzamoka, inankna hu'na Israeli vahera zamagura vazigahue? Manase naga'nofipina nagri nagara zamigi omane naga'manizageno, nenfa mofavreramimpina nagra amite'na mofavre mani'noe.

16 Yehova anamuyankha kuti, “Ine ndidzakhala nawe, ndipo Amidiyaniwo udzawagonjetsa ngati munthu mmodzi.”

Higeno Ra Anumzamo'a amanage huno asami'ne, Nagra kagrane mani'nenugenka, Midieni vahera magoke vahe'ma aheaza hunka zamahehana hugahane.

17 Gideoni anati, “Ngati tsopano mwandikomera mtima, ndionetseni chizindikiro kusonyeza kuti ndinudi mukuyankhula ndi ine.

Anagema higeno'a Gidioni'a amanage huno Ra Anumzamofona kenona hunte'ne, Nagra kagri kavurema knare'ma hu'nenugenka tamage hunka nazama hunaku'ma hanunka, mago avame'za naveri huge'na tamage Ra Anumzamoka nehane hu'na ha'neno.

18 Chonde musachoke msanga mpaka nditabwerera kwa inu ndi chopereka changa cha chakudya kudzachipereka kwa inu.” Ndipo Yehova anamuwuza kuti, “Ine ndikudikira mpaka utabweranso.”

Muse hugantoanki natrenka ovunege'na ofani'a eri'na eme kami'neno, higeno Ra Anumzamo'a huno, ama anante mani'nenugenka etesanke'na vugahuanki vuo.

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.

Anage'ma higeno'a Gidioni'a ame'ama huno nontega vuno, agaho meme afu ome aheno negreno, zisti onte bretine kre'ne. Hagi ana meme afu'ene zisti onte bretinena ekaeka kupi erinerino afu'ma kre'nea tima'a kavofi tagino e'nerino eazamo ra zafamofo agafafi ana ankeromofo avuga eme ante'ne.

20 Mngelo wa Mulungu anamuwuza iye kuti, “Tenga nyamayi pamodzi ndi makekewa, uziyike pa mwala uwu ndi kuthirapo msuziwu.” Ndipo Gideoni anatero.

Hagi anante Ra Anumzamofo ankeromo'a anage huno asmi'ne, Amu ana afu'ene zisti onte bretinena erinka have agofetu ante'nenka afu tima'a ana agofetu tagitro, higeno Gidioni'a ana hu'ne.

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.

Anante Ra Anumzamofo ankeromo'a azampima eri'nea azotareti ana afu'ene bretinena avako higeno, ana havefintira teve rukru huno ana maka ne'zana tefanane hu'ne. Ana higeno ana ankeromo'a agranena rufanane hu'ne.

22 Apo Gideoni anazindikira kuti analidi mngelo wa Ambuye, ndipo anati, “Kalanga ine Yehova Wamphamvuzonse! Ine ndaona mngelo wa Yehova ndi maso!”

Hagi Gidioni'ma Ra Anumzamofo ankerone huno keno antahinoma nehuno'a, amanage huno ran ke hu'ne, Ra Anumzamoka nagra frigahue! Na'ankure Ra Anumzamoka ankero ke'noe.

23 Koma Yehova anamuwuza kuti, “Mtendere ukhale ndi iwe! Usachite mantha, sufa ayi.”

Hianagi Ra Anumzamo'a amanage huno asmi'ne, ofrigosananki korora osunka krimpa frune akohenka manio.

24 Choncho Gideoni anamanga guwa lansembe la Yehova pamenepo ndipo analitcha kuti, Yehova ndiye mtendere. Kufikira lero lino guwali lilipo ku Ofura wa Mwabiezeri.

Anage higeno Gidioni'a anante kresramna vu ita tro huno agi'a Ra Anumzana Rimpa Fru Nere (Yawe-Shalom) huno ante'ne. Hagi ana kresramna vu ita Abiesa nagamofo mopafi Ofra kumate menina otino me'ne.

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.

Hagi ana kenagera Ra Anumzamo'a Gidionina amanage huno asmi'ne, Negafa bulimakao afu kevufintira mago nevrenka namba 2 bulimakao afu'ma avre'nanana 7ni'a kafu hu'nesia afu avro. Hagi negafa'ma Bali havi anumzante'ma kresramna vunte itama tro'ma hunte'neana tapage hunetrenka, Asera havi anumzamofo amema'ama zafama antre'za ana tava'onte'ma retru re'nazana antaginka kitaginkotago hutro.

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.”

Hagi Ra Anumzamofo kresramna vu ita haverera tro hutenka, ana Asera havi anumzama retrure'ne'za mono'ma hunentaza zafama antaginkama kitagi'nana zafareti ana kresramna vu itare tevea hanavazinka, namba 2 bulimakao afura ahenka, tevefima kre fananehu ofa hugahane.

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.

Anage higeno Gidioni'a 10ni'a eri'za vahe'a nezamavreno Ra Anumzmo'ma asamiaza hu'ne. Hianagi nefa nagaku'ene ana kumapima nemaniza vaheku koro nehuno ferura anazana osu'neanki, kenage ana zana tro hu'ne.

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.

Hagi ana'ma hutegeno'a ana kumapi ma nanterama oti'zama kazana, Bali havi anumzante'ma kresramnama nevaza ita taganavazi netreno, Asera havi anumzamofo ame'ma'a zafare'ma tro hu'za retrurente'nezama mono'ma hunentaza zafaramina maka antagi atrevaga nere'za kasefa kresramna vu ita trohu'za namba 2 bulimakao afura kresramna vu'nazage'za ke'naze.

29 Iwo anafunsana wina ndi mnzake, “Wachita zimenezi ndani?” Atafufuza ndi kufunsafunsa, analingalira kuti, “Gideoni mwana wa Yowasi ndiye wachita zimenezi.”

Anazama nege'za ana vahe'mo'za ontahige antahige hu'za, i'za ama zana tro hu'ne? hu'za hu'naze. Hagi henkama rezagane so'e hu'za hake'za erifore'ma hazana, Joasi nemofo Gidioni anara hu'ne, hu'za hu'naze.

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.”

Anante ana kumapima nemaniza vahe'mo'za amanage hu'za Joasina asami'naze, Negamofona avrenka egeta ahamanenkeno frino. Na'ankure agra Bali anumzante'ma kresramna nevuna ita tagnavazi netreno, Asera anumzante'ma mono'ma hunentona zafa antagi tre'ne.

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.”

Hianagi Joasi'a ranke huno ana vahetmina amanage huno zamazerikori'ne, Nagafare Bali havi anumzana ahora nekaze? Bali havi anumza aza hu'za nehazo? Bali havi anumzama ahomake'naza vahera nanterama komatinigeta fri vagaregahaze. Hagi agra anumzama mani'nenuno'a, agra'a ahora kegahie. Na'ankure agrite'ma kresramnama nevaza ita tagana vazitre'naze.

32 Choncho tsiku limenelo Gideoni anatchedwa, Yeru-Baala, kutanthauza kuti, “Baala alimbana naye, popeza anagwetsa guwa lake la nsembe.”

E'ina hige'za ana knazupa Gidioni agi'a Jerub-bali'e hu'za antemi'naze. Hagi ana agimofo aguagesa'amo'a amana hu'ne, atregeno Bali anumzamo'a agra'a ahora keno, na'ankure agri Kresramana vu ita tagana vazitre'ne.

33 Tsopano Amidiyani, Amaleki ndi anthu ena akummawa anasonkhana ndipo atawoloka Yorodani anakamanga zinthando za nkhondo ku chigwa cha Yezireeli.

Hagi Midieni vahe'ma, Ameleki vahe'ma zagehanati kazigati vahe'ma hu'za, Israeli vahe ha'huzamante'naku erimago hute'za Jodani tina takahe'za Jezril agupofi seli nona eme ki'naze.

34 Ndipo Mzimu wa Yehova unatsikira pa Gideoni, ndipo anayimba lipenga kuyitana Abiezeri kuti amutsatire iye.

Hianagi Ra Anumzamofo Avamu'mo Gidionintera emani'negeno ufena rege'za, Abieseli naga'mo'za hate avaririza vu'naku e'naze.

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.

Hagi Manasema, Aserima, Zebulonima, Naftali nagateganena kea atrezamantage'za ana makamo'za ha'ma huga vahetamina agritega emareri'naze.

36 Gideoni anati kwa Mulungu, “Ngati mudzapulumutsa Israeli ndi dzanja langa monga mwalonjezeramu,

Hagi anante Gidioni'a amanage huno Ra Anumzamofona asami'ne, Kagrama huhamprinante'nana kante'ma tamage hunka nagri'ma naza hanankena ha'ma hu'na Israeli vahe'ma zamaguvazinaku'ma hanugenka,

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.”

amana huge'na ka'neno. Meni kenagera witima neharaza kumapina sipisipi afu azokara antegahue. Hanki tamage hunkama naza hananke'na ha'ma hu'na Israeli vahe'ma zamagu'vazinaku hanugenka, ana sipisipi afu azokatera atregeno atara runentena, mopamo'a hagege hu'nena ka'neno. Nanterama ke'nuama sipisipi afu azokate'ma ata'ma ahenenigeno mopamo'ma hagagema hunenige'na, huhamprinante'nana kante antenka naza hunka Israeli vahera zamagu vazigahane hu'na antahi'neno.

38 Ndipo zimenezi zinachitikadi. Gideoni atadzuka mʼmamawa ndi kuwufinya ubweya uja, anafinya madzi odzaza mtsuko.

Hagi Gidioni'ma nanterama otino ome keana anaza fore hu'negeno ke'ne. Ana Sipisipi afu azokara omerino tatiana, timo'a mago zuompa avite'ne.

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.”

Anante Gidioni'a Anumzamofona amanage huno asami'ne, Mago'ene kantahige'za huanki krimpa aheonanto. Ete ama ana sipisipi afu azokara ome antegahuanki, mopafinke ata kora runentenkeno, sipisipi afu azokatera ruontenke'na ka'neno.

40 Ndipo Mulungu anachita zomwezo usiku umenewo. Pa ubweya pokha panali powuma, koma pa nthaka ponse panagwa mame.

Anage higeno Ra Anumzamo'a ana kenagera higeno mopafina ata kora runte'ne. Hianagi ana sipisipi afu azokamo'a hagage huno me'ne.
