1 And these [are] the nations which he left Yahweh to put to [the] test by them Israel all [those] who not they had known all [the] wars of Canaan.
Ici nĩcio ndũrĩrĩ iria Jehova aatigirie kuo nĩguo ageragie andũ a Isiraeli arĩa mataamenyerete ũhoro wa mbaara cia kũu Kaanani.
2 Only so as to know [the] generations of [the] people of Israel to teach them war only which before not they had known them.
(Eekire ũguo nĩgeetha arute njiaro cia andũ a Isiraeli ũhoro wa mbaara tondũ njiaro icio itiamenyete ũhoro wa kũrũa mbaara).
3 [the] five - [the] rulers of [the] Philistines And all the Canaanite[s] and the Sidonian[s] and the Hivite[s] [who] dwelt of [the] mount of Lebanon from [the] mountain of Baal Hermon to Lebo Hamath.
Ndũrĩrĩ icio nĩcio ici: aathani arĩa atano a Afilisti, na Akaanani othe, na Asidoni, na Ahivi arĩa maatũũraga irĩma-inĩ cia Lebanoni kuuma Kĩrĩma kĩa Baali-Herimoni o nginya Lebo-Hamathu.
4 And they were to put to [the] test by them Israel to know ¿ will they obey [the] commandments of Yahweh which he had commanded ancestors their by [the] hand of Moses.
Ciatigirio nĩgeetha igerie andũ a Isiraeli, nĩguo monwo kana nĩmarĩathĩkagĩra maathani ma Jehova marĩa aaheete maithe mao ma tene na guoko kwa Musa.
5 And [the] people of Israel they dwelt in [the] midst of the Canaanite[s] the Hittite[s] and the Amorite[s] and the Perizzite[s] and the Hivite[s] and the Jebusite[s].
Andũ a Isiraeli magĩtũũrania na Akaanani, na Ahiti, na Aamori, na Aperizi, na Ahivi, na Ajebusi.
6 And they took daughters their for themselves to wives and daughters their they gave to sons their and they served gods their.
Nao makĩhikia airĩtu ao, na makĩheana airĩtu ao mahikio nĩ aanake a andũ acio, na magĩtungatĩra ngai ciao.
7 And they did [the] people of Israel the evil in [the] eyes of Yahweh and they forgot Yahweh God their and they served the Baals and the Asherah poles.
Andũ a Isiraeli nĩmekire ũũru maitho-inĩ ma Jehova; makĩriganĩrwo nĩ Jehova Ngai wao, na magĩtungatĩra ngai cia Baali na cia Ashera.
8 And it burned [the] anger of Yahweh on Israel and he sold them in [the] hand of Cushan-Rishathaim [the] king of Aram Naharaim and they served [the] people of Israel Cushan-Rishathaim eight years.
Namo marakara ma Jehova magĩakanĩra andũ a Isiraeli o nginya akĩmarekereria moko-inĩ ma Kushani-Rishathaimu mũthamaki wa Aramu-Naharaimu, ũrĩa andũ a Isiraeli maatungatĩire mĩaka ĩnana.
9 And they cried out [the] people of Israel to Yahweh and he raised up Yahweh a deliverer for [the] people of Israel and he delivered them Othniel [the] son of Kenaz [the] brother of Caleb young more than him.
No rĩrĩa maarĩrĩire Jehova, akĩmaarahũrĩra mũndũ wa kũmahonokia wetagwo Othinieli mũrũ wa Kenazu, mũrũ wa ithe na Kalebu ũrĩa mũnini, nake akĩmahonokia.
10 And it was on him [the] spirit of Yahweh and he judged Israel and he went out to war and he gave Yahweh in hand his Cushan-Rishathaim [the] king of Aram and it prevailed hand his over Cushan-Rishathaim.
Roho wa Jehova agĩũka igũrũ rĩake, agĩtuĩka mũtiirĩrĩri bũrũri wa Isiraeli na agĩthiĩ ita-inĩ. Nake Jehova akĩneana Kushani-Rishathaimu mũthamaki wa Aramu moko-inĩ ma Othinieli, nake akĩmũtooria.
11 And it was at peace the land forty year[s] and he died Othniel [the] son of Kenaz.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio bũrũri ũgĩkorwo na thayũ mĩaka mĩrongo ĩna, nginya rĩrĩa Othinieli mũrũ wa Kenazu aakuire.
12 And they repeated [the] people of Israel to do the evil in [the] eyes of Yahweh and he strengthened Yahweh Eglon [the] king of Moab over Israel on for they did the evil in [the] eyes of Yahweh.
O rĩngĩ andũ a Isiraeli magĩĩka ũũru maitho-inĩ ma Jehova, na tondũ wa gwĩka ũũru ũcio Jehova akĩhe Egiloni mũthamaki wa Moabi hinya wa gũtooria Isiraeli.
13 And he gathered to himself [the] people of Ammon and Amalek and he went and he attacked Israel and they took possession of [the] city of the palm trees.
Egiloni akĩgĩĩra andũ a Amoni na Amaleki, makĩũngana hamwe nake magĩtharĩkĩra andũ a Isiraeli, na makĩmatunya Itũũra rĩrĩa Inene rĩa Mĩkĩndũ.
14 And they served [the] people of Israel Eglon [the] king of Moab eight-teen year[s].
Andũ a Isiraeli magĩtuĩka ndungata cia Egiloni mũthamaki wa Moabi mĩaka ikũmi na ĩnana.
15 And they cried out [the] people of Israel to Yahweh and he raised up Yahweh for them a deliverer Ehud [the] son of Gera [the] Ben-jaminite a man impeded [the] hand of right his and they sent [the] people of Israel by hand his tribute to Eglon [the] king of Moab.
O rĩngĩ andũ a Isiraeli makĩrĩrĩra Jehova, nake akĩmahe mũndũ wa kũmahonokia wetagwo Ehudu, warĩ wa kĩmotho; mũrũ wa Gera ũrĩa Mũbenjamini. Nao andũ a Isiraeli makĩmũtũma na irĩhi rĩa igooti kũrĩ Egiloni mũthamaki wa Moabi.
16 And he made for himself Ehud a sword and [belonged] to it two lips [was] a cubit length its and he girded it from under to garments his on [the] thigh of right his.
Na rĩrĩ, Ehudu nĩathondekete rũhiũ rwa njora rũũgĩ mĩena yeerĩ, ta rwa buti ĩmwe na nuthu kũraiha rũrĩa oohereire njohero-inĩ yake mwena wa ũrĩo nguo-inĩ thĩinĩ.
17 And he brought near the tribute to Eglon [the] king of Moab and Eglon [was] a man fat very.
Nake agĩtwarĩra Egiloni mũthamaki wa Moabi igooti, na rĩrĩ, Egiloni aarĩ mũndũ mũnoru mũno.
18 And it was just when he had finished to bring near the tribute and he sent away the people [who] bore the tribute.
Thuutha wa Ehudu kũmũnengera igooti, akiumagaria andũ arĩa maarĩkuuĩte, magĩthiĩ.
19 And he he returned from the idols which [were] with Gilgal and he said a word of secrecy [belongs] to me to you O king and he said hush! and they went out from with him all those [who] stood with him.
Nowe mwene aakinya mĩhianano-inĩ ĩrĩa yarĩ hakuhĩ na Giligali, akĩhũndũka, agĩthiĩ akĩĩra mũthamaki ũcio atĩrĩ, “Ndĩ na ndũmĩrĩri yaku ya hitho.” Nake mũthamaki akiuga atĩrĩ, “Kirai!” Nao arĩa othe maamũtungatagĩra makĩehera harĩ we.
20 And Ehud - he came to him and he [was] sitting in [the] roof chamber of the coolness which [belonged] to him to only him and he said Ehud a word of God [belongs] to me to you and he rose from on the throne.
Nake Ehudu akĩmũkuhĩrĩria rĩrĩa aikarĩte arĩ o wiki nyũmba-inĩ yake ya ũthamaki ya igũrũ, ĩrĩa aikaraga hĩndĩ ya riũa. Akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Ndĩ na ndũmĩrĩri yaku kuuma kũrĩ Ngai.” Na rĩrĩa mũthamaki ookagĩra kuuma gĩtĩ-inĩ kĩrĩa aikarĩire,
21 And he stretched out Ehud [the] hand of left his and he took the sword from on [the] thigh of right his and he thrust it in belly his.
Ehudu agĩtambũrũkia guoko gwake kwa ũmotho, akĩruta rũhiũ rwa njora kuuma njohero-inĩ yake mwena wa ũrĩo, agĩtheeca mũthamaki ũcio nda.
22 And it went also the hilt after the blade and it closed up the fat behind the blade that not he drew out the sword from belly his and he went out the hole towards.
O na mũtĩ waruo ũgĩtoonya na rũhiũ rũkiumanĩra na thuutha. Ehudu ndaacomorire rũhiũ, namo maguta makĩrũhumbĩra.
23 And he went out Ehud the porch towards and he closed [the] doors of the roof chamber behind him and he locked [them].
Ningĩ Ehudu agĩthiĩ gĩthaku-inĩ, akĩhinga mĩrango ya nyũmba ĩyo ya igũrũ, akĩmũhingĩrĩria kuo.
24 And he he went forth and servants his they came and they saw and there! [the] doors of the roof chamber [were] locked and they said surely [is] covering he feet his in [the] chamber of the coolness.
Ehudu aarĩkia gũthiĩ, ndungata cia mũthamaki igĩũka igĩkora mĩrango ya nyũmba ya igũrũ ĩrĩ mĩhinge, ikiuga atĩrĩ, “No nginya akorwo nĩ gwĩteithia areteithia kanyũmba-inĩ ka na thĩinĩ.”
25 And they writhed until were ashamed and there! not he [was] opening [the] doors of the roof chamber and they took the key and they opened [them] and there! master their [was] lying [the] ground towards dead.
Nacio igĩeterera o nginya igĩconoka, no rĩrĩa aagire kũhingũra mĩrango ya nyũmba, ikĩoya hingũro ikĩhingũra mĩrango. Na hau ikĩona mũnene wao agũĩte thĩ arĩ mũkuũ.
26 And Ehud he escaped until delayed they and he he passed by the idols and he escaped Seirah towards.
Na rĩrĩ, hĩndĩ ĩyo cietereire ihingũrĩrwo-rĩ, Ehudu akĩĩyũrĩra. Akĩhĩtũkĩra mĩhianano-inĩ akĩũrĩra Seira.
27 And it was when came he and he gave a blast on the ram's horn in [the] hill country of Ephraim and they went down with him [the] people of Israel from the hill country and he [was] before them.
Aakinya kuo akĩhuha karumbeta kũu bũrũri ũrĩa ũrĩ irĩma wa Efiraimu, nao andũ a Isiraeli magĩikũrũkania nake moimĩte irĩma-inĩ, amatongoretie.
28 And he said to them pursue after me for he has given Yahweh enemies your Moab in hand your and they went down after him and they captured [the] fords of the Jordan to Moab and not they permitted anyone to pass over.
Akĩmaatha atĩrĩ, “Nũmĩrĩrai, nĩgũkorwo Jehova nĩaneanĩte Moabi thũ yanyu moko-inĩ manyu.” Nĩ ũndũ ũcio magĩikũrũka makĩmũrũmĩrĩra, makĩnyiita mariũko ma Rũũĩ rwa Jorodani marĩa maaringagĩrĩra bũrũri wa Moabi, na matiigana gwĩtĩkĩria mũndũ o na ũrĩkũ aringe rũũĩ rũu.
29 And they struck down Moab at the time that about ten thousand man every stout [person] and every man of strength and not he escaped anyone.
Na hĩndĩ ĩyo makĩũraga andũ ta 10,000 a Moabi, na othe maarĩ andũ njamba na maarĩ na hinya; na gũtirĩ mũndũ o na ũmwe wahonokire.
30 And it was subdued Moab on the day that under [the] hand of Israel and it was at peace the land eighty year[s].
Mũthenya ũcio andũ a Moabi magĩtuĩka ndungata cia andũ a Isiraeli, naguo bũrũri ũgĩkorwo na thayũ mĩaka mĩrongo ĩnana.
31 And after him he was Shamgar [the] son of Anath and he struck down [the] Philistines six hundred man with [the] goad of cattle and he delivered also he Israel.
Thuutha wa Ehudu hagĩũka mũndũ wetagwo Shamigari mũrũ wa Anathu, ũrĩa woragire Afilisti magana matandatũ na mũcengi ũrĩa ũtindĩkaga ndegwa. O nake akĩhonokia andũ a Isiraeli.
