Judges 9
1 Abimelech, son of Jerub-baal, went to his mother's brothers at Shechem and told them and all his mother's relatives,
Hagi mago kna Gidioni nemofo Abimeleki'a anokahe'mofo ome zamagenaku Sekemu vuno, amanage huno anokahemofone nerera naga'enena zamasami'ne.
2 “Please ask all the leaders of Shechem, ‘What's best for you? That seventy men, all of them Jerub-baal's sons, rule over you—or just one man?’ Remember I'm your own flesh and blood!”
Mika Sekemu kumate kva vahetamima mani'naza vahe'motafi ama nanekea nehue, Gidionina ana mika 70'a mofavre'aramimo kegava huramante'nie nehazafi, magokemo kegava huramantenigeno knarera hugahie huta nehaze? Tamagra tamagesa antahiho, nagara tamagri kora mani'noe.
3 His mother's brothers shared his proposal with all the leaders of Shechem, and they decided to follow Abimelech, because they said, “He is our relative.”
E'inage hige'za Abimeleki anokahemo'za agri agi eri'za maka Sekemu kumapima mani'naza vahetega kea atrazageno vuno eno hu'ne. Hagi ana kumapi vahe'mo'zama ana nanekema nentahiza Abimeleki'a tagri kora mani'ne nehu'za agri kaziga mani'naze.
4 They gave him seventy shekels of silver from the temple of Baal-berith. Abimelech used the money to hire some arrogant troublemakers as his gang.
Anama nehu'za Bal-Berit havi anumzamofo mono nompintira 70'a silva zago Abimelekina erimi'naze. Hagi ana zagoa Abimeleki'a erino hazenke vahetami mi'za huzmanteno zamavarege'za agri amage ante'za avariri'za vu'naze.
5 He went to his father's house in Ophrah, and on one stone killed his seventy half-brothers, the sons of Jerub-baal. But Jotham, Jerub-baal's youngest son, escaped by going into hiding.
Hagi Abimeleki'a nefa kumate Ofra vuno 70'a Jerubali ne' mofavre zagaramina magoke have agofetu ome zamahe'ne. Hianagi amite'na ne'amo Jotamu'a koro freno ome fraki'ne.
6 Then the leaders of Shechem and Beth-millo all assembled by the oak at the pillar in Shechem and made Abimelech their king.
Hagi anama higeno'a Sekemu kumateti'ene Beth-Milo kumateti kva vahe'mo'za Sekemu kumate vu'za, oki zafa agafare'ma zafa retruma rente'ne'za mono'ma hunentazare omeri atru hute'za, Abimelekina kinia azeri oti'naze.
7 When Jotham got to hear this, he went up to the top of Mount Gerizim, and shouted in a loud voice: “Listen to me, leaders of Shechem, and God may to listen to you!
Hagi Jotamu'ma anazama haza zmagenkema nentahino'a, Gerisimi agonare marerino amanage huno kezana ati'ne. Sekemu kumate kva vahe'mota keni'a antahiho. Anumzamo'ma ketimima antahinie hanuta nagri kea antahiho.
8 Once upon a time the trees were determined to anoint a king to rule over them. They said to the olive tree, ‘You shall be our king.’
Hagi mago zupa zafamo'za kinizmi azeri otinaku amanage hu'naze. Olivi zafamoka kiniti mani'nenka kegava huranto hu'za hu'naze!
9 But the olive tree replied, ‘Should I stop giving my rich oil that benefits both gods and men just to go and sway to and fro over the trees?’
Hianagi olivi zafamo'a anage huno zamasami'ne, Nagra olivi masavema tro'ma hute'na Anumzane vahe'mokizmi nezamuge'za musema nehaza eri'zana atre'na amne oti'nena, vuge ege nehu'na zafamota naza atrezamante vava hanuo?
10 Then the trees asked the fig tree, ‘You come and be our king.’
Anagema hige'za zafamo'za amanage hu'za fiki zafagura hu'naze, Kiniti mani'nenka kegava huranto!
11 But the fig tree replied, ‘Should I stop giving my good sweet fruit just to go and sway to and fro over the trees?’
Hianagi fiki zafamo'a anage huno zamasami'ne, Nagra haganentake zafaragama renentoa eri'zana atre'na amne oti'nena vuge ege nehu'na, zafamota nazana atreramante vava hanuo?
12 Then the trees asked the grape vine, ‘You come and be our king.’
Hige'za zafamo'za amanage hu'za waini nofikura hu'naze, Waini nofi'moka kiniti mani'nenka kegava huranto!
13 But the grape vine replied, ‘Should I stop giving my wine that makes both gods and men happy just to go and sway to and fro over the trees?’
Hianagi waini nofi'mo'a anage hu'ne, Nagra kasefa waini rgama trohu'na Anumzane vahe'mofonema nezamua eri'za atre'na amne oti'nena vuge ege nehu'na, naza atreramante vava hanuo?
14 Then all the trees asked the thorn bush, ‘You come and be our king.’
Hagi anagema hige'za ave'ave nofikura amanage hu'naze, Ave'ave nofimoka kiniti mani'nenka kegava huranto!
15 The thorn bush replied to the trees, ‘If you're really sincere about anointing me as your king, come and find shelter in my shade. But if not, may fire flame out of the thorn bush and burn up the cedars of Lebanon!’
Anage'ma hu'za antahigazageno'a, ave'ave nofi'mo'a amanage huno kenona hu'ne, Tamagema huta tamagu'areti'ma kinima nazeri otisuta, eta nagri turunampinka emaniho. Hagi ana'ma osanazana ana ave'ave trazampinti tevemo'a eno Lebanoni sida zafaramina teno erihana hugahie!
16 Have you acted sincerely and honestly by making Abimelech your king? Have you been acted honorably to Jerub-baal and his family? Have you respected him for all that he accomplished?
Anante Jotamu'a mago'ane amanage huno hu'ne, Abimelekima kinima azeri oti'zana tamagra knare'za huta azeri onetizo? Hagi Jerubali'ene naga'amo'zanena tamagrira knare'za hu'za tamaza hu'nazanagi, tamagra knare'za huntazafi haviza huntaze?
17 Don't forget how my father fought for you and risked his own life to save you from the Midianites!
Na'ankure nenfa Jerubali'a agra avufgagura ontahi hara huno Midieni vahe zamazampinti tamagu'vazi'ne.
18 But you have rebelled against my father's family today. You have killed his seventy sons on one stone and have made Abimelech, the son of his slave woman, king over the leaders of Shechem simply because he's related to you.
Hianagi menina nenfane naga'anena hara rezamanteta 70'a ne' mofavreramima'a magoke have agofetu zamahe vagare'naze. Ana nehuta eri'za a'amofo mofavrea Abimelekina Sekemu kinia azeri oti'naze. Na'ankure agra tamagripinti fore hu'negu anara hu'naze.
19 Have you acted sincerely and honestly toward Jerub-baal and his family today? If so, may you be happy with Abimelech, and may he be happy with too!
Hagi menima tamagrama haza avu'avamo'a Jerubaline naga'are'enema knare'ma huno fatgoma hu'ne'nigeta, Abimeleki'enena musena nehinkeno, agra'enena musena tamagri'enena hino.
20 But if you haven't, then may fire flame out from Abimelech, and may it burn up the leaders of Shechem and Beth-millo, and may fire flame out from the leaders of Shechem and Beth-millo and burn up Abimelech!”
Hianagi tamagrama knare huno fatgo osu' avu'ava'ma hu'nena zana Abimelekimpinti tevemo'a atiramino Sekemu kumate kva vahe'ene Bet-Milo kumate kva vahetmina tehana nehanigeno, Sekemu kumate kva vahe'tamimpinti'ene Bet-Milo kumate kva vahepinti tevemo'a atiramino Abimelekina tegahie.
21 Then Jotham escaped and ran away. He went to Beer and stayed there because of the threat of Abimelech his brother.
Hagi Jotamu'ma anagema huteno'a, koro freno Beri kumate umani'ne. Na'ankure Abimeleki'ma ahezanku koro freno vu'ne.
22 Abimelech ruled over Israel for three years.
Ana'ma hutegeno'a Abimeleki'a 3'a kafu Israeli vahe kinia mani'ne.
23 Then God sent an evil spirit to cause trouble between Abimelech and the leaders of Shechem. The leaders of Shechem betrayed Abimelech.
Hagi Anumzamo'a havi avamu huntegeno Abimelekine Sekemu kumate kva vahe'mofo amu'nompi emaninege'za, Sekemu kumate kva vahe'mo'za Abimelekina azeri amuho hu'naze.
24 This happened because of the murder of the seventy sons of Jerub-baal and that responsibility for their blood be placed on Abimelech their brother, who killed them, and on the leaders of Shechem, who provided the means to kill his brothers.
Anumzamo'a knazana atregeno Abimelekinte'ene Sekemu kumate kva vahetaminte'ene e'ne. Na'ankure Sekemu kumate kva vahe'mo'za Abimelekina aza hazageno, Gidionina afuhe'ima 70'a ne'mofavre'zaga zamahenegu anara hu'ne.
25 The leaders of Shechem sent men to the hill passes to lie in wait and attack Abimelech, and, in the meantime, they robbed everyone who passed by on the road. Abimelech found out what was happening.
Hagi Sekemu kumate kva vahe'mo'za mago'a vahera agonafi Abimelekima esigura kankafo ome ante'za mani'ne'za, ami'mi hu'za kante'ma enevaza vahera keonkezazmi zamahe'za hanare'naze. Hianagi anazama haza nanekea Abimelekina eme asami'naze.
26 Gaal, son of Ebed, had moved to Shechem with his relatives, and he gained the loyalty of the leaders of Shechem.
Hagi mago zupa Ebedi nemofo Gali'a afu'aganahe'zane Sekemu kumate vu'ne. E'inama higeno'a Sekemu kumate kva vahe'mo'za Galina antahimi'za amage ante'naze.
27 At harvest time they went out into the countryside and gathered the grapes from their vineyards and trod them. They celebrated by having a festival in the temple of their god, where they ate and drank, and cursed Abimelech.
Hagi ne'zama vasage knare'ma musema hu knafina Sekemu vahe'mo'za waini raga tagi'za rerati'za tima'a eri'za havi anumzazmimofo mono nompi vu'za, ana tine ne'zanena nene'za Abimelekina huhaviza hunte'naze.
28 “Who is this Abimelech?” asked Gaal, son of Ebed. “And who is Shechem, that we should have to serve him? Isn't he the son of Jerub-baal, while Zebul is actually the one in charge? You should serve the family of Hamor, the father of Shechem. Why should we have to serve Abimelech?
Hagi Ebedi nemofo Gali'a amanage hu'ne, Sekemu vahera Hamori tazeri fore hu'ne. Hagi Abimeleki'a agra inanknahu ne' mani'nesigeta tagra Sekemu vahe'mota agri kvafina manigahune? Hagi Abimeleki'a Jeru-Bali nemofo manigeno eri'za vahe'a Zebuli mani'ne. Tagra Sekemu kumamofo nefa, Hamori mofavrerami mani'nonanki, nagafare Abimeleki eri'za vahera manigahune?
29 If I was the one in charge of you people, I would dispose of Abimelech! I would tell him, ‘Get your army together, and come and fight!’”
Hagi nagrama ama Sekemu vahe'ma kegavama huresina Abimelekina ahe kasonepe'na amanage hu'na huntegahue, sondia vaheka'a ome avrenka ha' eme hunanto hu'na huresine.
30 When Zebul, the governor of the city, got to hear what Gaal was saying, he became very angry.
Hianagi ana rankumate kva ne' Zebuli'ma, Ebedi nemofo Gali nanekema nentahino'a, tusi arimpa ahe'ne.
31 He secretly sent messengers to Abimelech to tell him, “Look, Gaal, son of Ebed, and his relatives have arrived in Shechem, and they are stirring up the town to rebel against you.
Anama higeno'a eri'za vahe oku'a huzmantege'za vu'za anage hu'za Abimelekina ome asmi'naze, Ebedi nemofo Gali'a afu'aganahezane eno, Sekemu kumate vahera ha'huzamantenogu zamarimpa eme nere.
32 So come at night with your army and hide in the countryside.
E'ina hu'negu sondia vaheka'ane kenage eta kankafona eme hu'nenkeno,
33 In the morning as soon as the sun comes up, go and attack the town. When Gaal and his men come out to fight you, you can do whatever you want to them.”
nanterama rumasama huno zagema hanati'nigeta tamagareta ana kumapina vinkeno, ana kumapinti vahe'ma ha'ma huramantenaku'ma esazana anante tamagrama tamagesama antahisaza zana hugahaze.
34 Abimelech left at night along with his army, and they separated into four companies that lay in wait near Shechem.
Hagi Abimeleki'a ana kenageke sondia vahe'a 4'afi refko huno Sekemu kumara avazagigagi'ne.
35 When Gaal, son of Ebed, went out and stood at the town's entrance gate, Abimelech and his army came out from where they had been hiding.
Hagi nanterama Ebedi nemofo Galima kuma'mofo kahante uoma'netige'za, Abimeleki'ene sondia vahe'amo'zama fraki'nazafintira atre'za e'naze.
36 Gaal saw the army approaching and said to Zebul, “Look! Some people are coming down from the hilltops!” “That's just shadows made by the hills that look like men,” Zebul replied.
Hagi Gali'ma ana vahe'tmima nezmageno'a Zebulinkura amanage hu'ne, Agonaregatira vahera eneramizanki ko. Anage'ma higeno'a Zebuli'a amanage huno kenona hu'ne, amne agonaramimofo amema'aramimo vahe knara nehie.
37 “No really, people are coming down from the high ground,” Gaal repeated. “Plus, there's another company coming down the road that passes the diviners' oak tree.”
Hianagi Gali'a mago'ane amanage huno hu'ne, agonaregatira vahe'tmi eneramizanki ko. Hagi mago'a vahera zamavune vahe'ma mani'ne'za henkama fore'ma hania zanku'ma, havi kasnampa kema nehaza oki zafa agafama me'nea kantegati neaze.
38 “Where's your big mouth now? You're the one who said, ‘Who is this Abimelech, that we should have to serve him?’” Zebul told him. “Aren't these the people you detested? Go on then—go and fight with them!”
Anante Zebuli'a otino Galina amanage huno asami'ne, ina kagipinti kagra ama ana kea hu'nane. Iza'e Abimeleki'a, agra iza mani'nenige'na nagra agri eri'za vahera manigahue? E'inage hunka huhavizama hu'nana vaheki vunka hara ome huzamanto.
39 So Gaal led the leaders of Shechem out of the town and fought with Abimelech.
Hagi anagema higeno'a Gali'a Sekemu kumate vahera nezamavreno, agra vugota huno Abimeleki naga'enena hara ome hu'ne.
40 Abimelech attacked, and chased him and his men as they ran away, killing many of them as they tried to get back to the town gate.
Hianagi Abimeleki sondia vahe'mo'za Galina arotago nehu'za, vahera ome zamahetre eme zamahetre hu'za rankumamofo kahante ehanati'naze.
41 Abimelech went back to Arumah while Zebul expelled Gaal and his relatives from Shechem.
Ana huteno Abimeleki'a Aruma kumate umanigeno, Zebuli'a Galine afu'aganahe'ina zamahe kasopeno agra Sekemu kumatera umani'ne.
42 The following day the people of Shechem went out to the fields, and Abimelech was informed about it.
Hagi hanima huno ko'matigeno'a, Sekemu kumate vahe'mo'za hozafi vu'naku atirami'za vazageno, Abimelekina mago'a vahe'mo'za ome asami'naze.
43 He divided his army into three companies and had them lay in ambush in the fields. When he saw the people coming out of the city, he attacked and killed them.
Abimeleki'ma ana nanekema nentahino'a, 3'afi vahe'a refko huno kankafona ante'ne. Hagi Abimeleki'ma kegeno'ma ana ha' vahetmima kumapinti'ma atirami'za azageno'a, agrane naga'amo'zama framaki'nazafintira oti'za zamahe'naze.
44 Abimelech and his company raced to occupy the town's entrance gate, while the two companies raced to attack everyone in the fields and kill them.
Hagi 3'a kevu vahepintira Abimeleki'a mago kevua avreno kuma'mofo kafante ome ankanire'za mani'nazageno, tare kevu vahe'mo'za megi'ama mani'naza ha' vahera zamahe vagare'naze.
45 The battle for the town lasted all day but eventually Abimelech captured it. He killed the people, demolished the town, and scattered salt over the ground.
Hagi Abimeleki'a ana kumapi vahera ana zage ferupinke hara huno zamahe hana nehuno, ana kumara tapage huno eri pehe nehuno, hage atinteno vano hu'ne.
46 When all the leaders of the tower of Shechem realized what had happened, they took refuge in the strongroom of the temple of El-berith.
Hagi zaza nompima mani'ne'za kuma kegavama nehaza kva vahe'mo'za Abimeleki'ma ha'ma eme huzamantea nanekema nentahi'za, ana nanteranke Bal-Beriti havi anumzamofo mono nomofo vihufi ufre'za mani'naze.
47 When Abimelech found out that all the leaders in the tower of Shechem had gathered there,
Ana'ma hazageno'a mago'a vahe'mo'za Abimelekina eme asami'za, Sekemu kumate'ma za'za nompima manine'za kuma'ma kegavama nehaza kva vahe'mo'za maka magopi eritru hu'za mani'naze hu'za asami'naze.
48 he and all the men with him went up Mount Zalmon. Abimelech grabbed hold of an ax and cut a branch from the trees. He lifted it onto his shoulder, and told his men, “Quick! You saw what I did. Do the same!”
Hagi Abimeleki'a sondia vahe'a zamavareno Zalmoni agonafi mareriteno, sa'ume erino zafa azankuna'aramina antagi atreno afunte e'nerino, zamavarenoma vu'nea vahetmina amanage huno zamasami'ne, Ame'ama huta amama huaza hiho.
49 Each of them cut down a branch and followed Abimelech. They placed the branches against the strongroom and set it on fire. So all the people who lived in the tower of Shechem died, around one thousand men and women.
Anagema higeno'a, ana maka vahe'mo'za ana zafa azankunatmina antagi'za Sekemu vahetmimofo vihurera retrure kagite'za teve tagintazageno ana vihufima mani'naza vahe'ene zaza nonte'ma kegavama nehaza vahetaminena miko 1tauseni'a venenene a'nenena fri'naze.
50 Then Abimelech went to attack Thebez and captured it.
Hagi anama huteno'a Abimeleki'a Tebezi kumate vuno ana kumapi vahera hara ome huzamanteno, ana kumara zamaheno hanare'ne.
51 But there was a strong tower inside the city. All the men and women and the town leaders ran there and barricaded themselves in, and then went up to the roof of the tower.
Hianagi ana kumapi kva vahe'mo'za vihufinke ufrevagare'za ufraki'naze. Ana vihua zaza no ki'za mareri'naza nomofo agofetu fre'za umani'naze.
52 Abimelech went up to the tower to attack it. But as he came close to the tower's entrance to set it on fire,
Hagi Abimeleki'a ha' hunaku ana zaza nonte eno, ana nomofo kahante teve taginte'za nehigeno,
53 a woman dropped millstone down on Abimelech's head and cracked his skull open.
mago a'mo'a witi neharaza havenkno atregeno tamino asenia ru prarovazino ahetre'ne.
54 He quickly called the young man who carried his weapons, and ordered him, “Draw your sword and kill me, so they won't say about me that a woman killed him.” So the young man drove his sword through him, and he died.
Anama higeno'a Abimeleki'a amanage huno hanko'ama erinentea nehaza nera asami'ne, a'ne'mo ahe frine hu'za hanagi, ame hunka kazinka'a erinka nahe frio, huno higeno ana nehazamo'a kazi regeno fri'ne.
55 When the Israelites saw that Abimelech was dead, they all left and went home.
Abimeleki'ma frige'za kazana hige'za, Israeli vahe'mo'za atre'za nozimirega vu'naze.
56 This is how God paid back Abimelech's crime against his father of murdering his seventy brothers.
Hagi Abimeleki'ma kefo avu'ava'ma huno 70'a afu'aganahe'ima zamahe frino nefama agima eri haviza hu'nea zantera, e'ina hukna huno Anumzamo'a nona huno azeri havizana hu'ne.
57 He also repaid the people of Shechem for their evil, and the curse of Jotham, son of Jerub-baal, came down upon them.
Ana hukna huno Sekumu kumate vahe'mo'zama kefozama hu'naza zantera Anumzamo'a nona huzmante'ne. E'inama hu'neana Jerubali nemofo Jotamu'ma zamazeri haviza hu kasnampa ke'ma huno kazusima huzmante'nea zamo'a zamagrite efore hu'ne.
