Judges 3
1 These ben the folkis whiche the Lord lefte, that in hem he schulde teche Israel, and alle men that knewen not the batels of Cananeis;
Iyi ndi mitundu ya anthu yomwe Yehova anayisiya kuti ayese nayo Aisraeli amene sanadziwe kumenya nkhondo mu Kanaani
2 and that aftirward `the sones of hem schulden lerne to fiyte with enemyes,
(Yehova anachita izi kuti Aisraeli onse aphunzire kumenya nkhondo; makamaka amene nʼkale lonse sanadziwe kumenya nkhondo.
3 and to haue custom of batel He lefte fyue princes of Filistees, and al Cananei, and the puple of Sidon, and Euey that dwelliden in the hil Liban, fro the hil Baal Hermon `til to the entryng of Emath.
Mitundu ya anthuyo ndi: Mafumu asanu a Afilisti, Akanaani onse, Asidoni, ndi Ahivi amene ankakhala ku mapiri a Lebanoni kuyambira ku phiri la Baala-Herimoni mpaka ku Lebo Hamati.
4 And he lefte hem, that in hem he schulde asaie Israel, whethir thei wolden here the `heestis of the Lord, whiche he comaundide to her fadris bi the hond of Moises, ethir nai.
Iwowa Yehova anawasiya kuti aziyesa nawo Aisraeli kuti aone ngati angamvere malamulo a Yehova, amene anapatsa makolo awo kudzera mwa Mose.
5 And so the sones of Israel dwelliden in the myddis of Cananei, of Ethei, and of Ammorrei, and of Feresei, and of Euey,
Choncho Aisraeli anakhala pakati pa Akanaani, Ahiti, Aamori, Aperezi, Ahivi ndi Ayebusi.
6 and of Jebusey, and weddiden wyues, the douytris of hem; and the sones of Israel yauen her douytris to `the sones of hem, and serueden `the goddis of hem.
Tsono Aisraeli aja amalola ana awo aamuna ndi aakazi kuti azikwatira ndi kukwatiwa ndi anthu amitundu ina. Kenaka anayamba kupembedza milungu yawo.
7 And the sones of Israel diden yuel in the `siyt of the Lord, and foryaten her Lord God, and serueden Baalym, and Astaroth.
Aisraeli anachita zinthu zoyipira Yehova. Iwowa anayiwala Yehova Mulungu wawo ndi kumatumikira Abaala ndi Asera.
8 And the Lord was wrooth ayens Israel, and bitook hem in to the hondis of Cusanrasathaym, kyng of Mesopotanye, and thei serueden hym eiyte yeer.
Choncho Yehova anawapsera mtima Aisraeliwo ndipo anawagulitsa kwa Kusani-Risataimu mfumu ya ku Mesopotamiya. Choncho Aisraeli anakhala pansi pa ulamuliro wake zaka zisanu ndi zitatu.
9 And thei crieden to the Lord, and he reiside to hem a sauyour, and delyuerede hem, that is, Othonyel, sone of Ceneth, `the lesse brothir of Caleph.
Koma pamene Aisraeliwo analirira kwa Yehova, Iye anawawutsira mpulumutsi, Otanieli mwana wamwamuna wa Kenazi, mngʼono wake wa Kalebe. Iyeyu ndiye anawapulumutsa.
10 And the spirit of the Lord was in hym, and he demyde Israel. And he yede out to batel, and the Lord bitook in to hise hondis Cusanrathaym, kyng of Sirie; and Othonyel oppresside hym.
Mzimu wa Yehova unatsika pa iye, choncho anasanduka mtsogoleri wa Israeli. Iye anapita kukamenya nkhondo, ndipo Yehova anapereka Kusani-Risataimu mfumu ya Aaramu mʼmanja mwake. Choncho anayigonjetsa.
11 And the lond restide fourti yeer; and Othonyel, sone of Ceneth, diede.
Ndipo mʼdzikomo munakhala mtendere zaka makumi anayi. Kenaka Otanieli mwana wa Kenazi anamwalira.
12 Forsothe the sones of Israel addiden to do yuel in the `siyt of the Lord; and he coumfortide ayens hem Eglon, the kyng of Moab, for `thei diden yuel in the `siyt of the Lord.
Aisraeli anachitanso zinthu zoyipira Yehova. Tsono Yehova anapatsa mphamvu Egiloni, mfumu ya Mowabu kuti alimbane ndi Aisraeli aja popeza anachita zinthu zoyipira Yehova.
13 And the Lord couplide to hym the sones of Amon and Amalech; and he yede, and smoot Israel, and hadde in possessioun the citee of Palmes.
Egiloniyo anamemeza Aamori ndi Aamaleki kupita kukamenyana ndi Israeli, ndipo analanda Yeriko, mzinda wa migwalangwa.
14 And the sones of Israel serueden Eglon, kyng of Moab, eiytene yeer.
Aisraeli anatumikira ngati akapolo Egiloni mfumu ya Mowabu kwa zaka 18.
15 And aftirward thei crieden to the Lord; and he reiside to hem a sauyour, Aioth bi name, the sone of Gera, sone of Gemyny, which Aioth vside euer either hond for the riyt hond. And the sones of Israel senten bi him yiftis, `that is, tribute, to Eglon, kyng of Moab;
Aisraeli analiranso kwa Yehova, ndipo Iye anawawutsira mpulumutsi, Ehudi. Iyeyu anali mwana wa Gera, munthu wamanzere, wa fuko la Benjamini. Aisraeli ankatumiza msonkho kwa Egiloni, mfumu ya Mowabu, kudzera kwa Ehudi.
16 which Aioth made to hym a swerd keruynge on euer either side, hauynge in the myddis a pomel of the lengthe of the pawm of an hond; and he was gird therwith vndir `the sai, `that is, a knyytis mentil, `in the riyt hipe.
Ndipo Ehudi anapanga lupanga lakuthwa kuwiri lotalika masentimita makumi asanu, ndipo anamangirira lupangalo pa ntchafu yake ya kumanja mʼkati mwa zovala zake.
17 And he brouyte yiftis to Eglon, the kyng of Moab; forsothe Eglon was ful fat.
Iye anakapereka msonkho kwa Egiloni, mfumu ya Mowabu, amene anali munthu wonenepa kwambiri.
18 And whanne he hadde youe yiftis to the kyng, he pursuede felowis that camen with hym; and he turnede ayen fro Galgalis,
Ehudi atapereka msonkhowo, anawuza anthu amene ananyamula msonkhowo kuti azipita.
19 where idolis weren, and he seide to the kyng, A kyng, Y haue a priuei word to thee. And he comaundide silence. And whanne alle men weren goon out, that weren aboute hym, Aioth entride to hym;
Iye mwini anabwerera pamalo a miyala yozokotedwa ku Giligala ndipo anati, “Zikomo mfumu, ine ndili ndi mawu achinsinsi kuti ndikuwuzeni.” Mfumuyo inawuza onse amene amayitumikira kuti akhale chete, ndipo kenaka anawatulutsa.
20 forsothe he sat aloone in a somer parlour. And Aioth seide, Y haue the word of God to thee.
Kenaka Ehudi anayandikira pafupi ndi mfumuyo, ndipo iyo inakhala yokha mʼchipinda chapamwamba, mozizira bwino. Tsono Ehudi anati, “Ndili ndi mawu ochokera kwa Mulungu woti ndikuwuzeni.” Mfumuyo itadzuka pa mpando wake waufumu,
21 Which roos anoon fro the trone. And Aioth helde forth the left hond, and took the swerd fro his riyt hype; and he
Ehudi ndi dzanja lake lamanzere, anasolola lupanga pa ntchafu yake ya kumanja ndi kubaya nalo mfumuyo pa mimba.
22 fastnede in to the `wombe of the kyng so strongli, that the pomel, `ether hilte, suede the yrun in the wounde, and was holdun streite `in the thickeste fatnesse with ynne; and he drow not out the swerd, but so as he hadde smyte, he lefte in the bodi; and anoon bi the priuetees of kynde the tordis of the wombe braste out.
Lupanga linalowa mʼmimba pamodzi ndi chogwirira chake. Mafuta anaphimba lupangalo popeza silinatulutsidwe mʼmimbamo. Ndiponso matumbo anatuluka.
23 Forsothe whanne the doris of the parlour weren closid moost diligentli, and fastned with lok,
Kenaka Ehudi anatuluka panja pa khonde, atatseka ndi kukhoma zitseko za chipinda chapamwambacho.
24 Aioth yede out bi a posterne. And the `seruauntis of the king entriden, not in the parlour, but in the porche, and thei sien the doris of the parlour closid, and seiden, In hap he purgith the wombe in the somer parlour.
Ehudi atachoka, atumiki a mfumu aja anabwera, ndipo ataona kuti zitseko za chipinda chapamwamba zinali zokhoma anaganiza kuti mwina mfumu ikudzithandiza mʼkatimo.
25 And thei abididen longe, til thei weren aschamed; and thei sien that no man openede, and thei token the keie, and thei openyden, and founden her lord liggynge deed in the erthe.
Iwo anadikira nthawi yayitali koma popanda chochitika. Koma ataona kuti mfumuyo sikutsekulabe zitseko za chipindacho, iwo anatenga makiyi ndi kutsekula zitsekozo, ndipo anangoona mbuye wawo atagwera pansi, ali wakufa.
26 Sotheli while thei weren disturblid, Aioth fledde out, and passide the place of idols, fro whennus he turnede ayen; and he cam in to Seirath.
Ehudi anathawa pamene iwo ankadikira. Iye anadzera ku malo a miyala yozokotedwa kuja ndi kuthawa kupita ku Seiri.
27 And anoon he sownede with a clarioun in the hil of Effraym; and the sones of Israel camen doun with hym, and he yede in the frount.
Atafika kumeneko, anayimba lipenga ku dziko la ku mapiri la Efereimu. Iye akutsogolera, Aisraeli onse anatsika naye pamodzi kuchoka ku mapiriko.
28 Which seide to hem, Sue ye me, for the Lord hath bitake oure enemyes, Moabitis, in to oure hondis. And thei camen doun after hym, and ocupieden the forthis of Jordan, that ledde ouer in to Moab.
Iye anawawuza kuti, “Nditsatireni, chifukwa Yehova wapereka Amowabu, adani anu mʼmanja mwanu.” Choncho anthuwo anamutsatira, nalanda madooko a Yorodani opita ku Mowabu. Iwo sanalole kuti wina aliyense awoloke.
29 And thei suffriden not ony man to passe, but thei smytiden Moabitis in that tyme aboute ten thousande, alle myyti men and stronge; no man of hem myyte ascape.
Nthawi imeneyo anapha Amowabu pafupifupi 10,000. Ophedwawo anali anthu amphamvu komanso odziwa kumenya nkhondo, ndipo panalibe ndi mmodzi yemwe anathawa.
30 And Moab was maad low in that dai vndur the hond of Israel, and the lond restide fourescoor yeer.
Tsiku limenelo Amowabu anakhala pansi pa ulamuliro wa Israeli, ndipo dzikolo linakhala pa mtendere kwa zaka 80.
31 Aftir hym was Samgar, the sone of Anath, that smoot of Filisteis sixe hundrid men with a schar; and he also defendide Israel.
Ehudi atamwalira, panabwera Samugara mwana wa Anati. Iye anapha Afilisti 600 ndi ndodo yomenyera ngʼombe. Nayenso anapulumutsa Israeli.
