2 Filistitɔwo yɔ woƒe nunɔlawo kple afakalawo ƒo ƒui eye wobia wo be, “Nu ka tututu míawɔ tso Yehowa ƒe nubablaɖaka la ŋu? Nunana ka ƒomevi míatsɔ akpe ɖe eŋu ne míegbugbɔe yi Israelviwo ƒe anyigba dzi?”
vaFiristia vakadana vaprista navavuki vakati, “Toitei neareka yaJehovha? Tiudzei kuti toidzosera sei kunzvimbo yayo.”
3 Woɖo eŋu be, “Ne miebe yewoatrɔ Israel ƒe Mawu la ƒe nubablaɖaka la ayi la, migaɖoe ɖa asi ƒuƒlui o, ke boŋ godoo la, mitsɔ fɔɖivɔsa kpe ɖe eŋuti. Ekema miakpɔ dɔyɔyɔ eye miakpɔe ɖa be eƒe asi madzo le mia dzi o mahã?”
Vakapindura vachiti, “Kana muchidzosera areka yamwari weIsraeri, musaidzosera isina chinhu, asi edzai nepamunogona kumutumira chipiriso chemhosva. Ipapo muchaporeswa, uye muchaziva kuti sei ruoko rwake rusina kubviswa pamusoro penyu.”
4 Filistitɔwo bia be, “Fɔɖivɔsanu kae míatsɔ aɖo ɖa?” Woɖo eŋu be, “Sikaƒoƒoe atɔ̃ kple afi si wowɔ kple sika la atɔ̃, ɖe Filistitɔwo ƒe amegãwo ƒe xexlẽme nu elabena dɔvɔ̃ ɖeka ƒomevie va dze mi kple mia dziɖulawo siaa dzi.
VaFiristia vakabvunza vakati, “Chipiriso chemhosva chatinofanira kumutumira ndecheiko?” Vakapindura vachiti, “Mamota mashanu egoridhe nembeva shanu dzegoridhe, zvichienderana nouwandu hwavatongi vavaFiristia, nokuti nedenda rimwe chetero akakurovai imi navatongi venyu.
5 Miwɔ nuƒoƒoeawo kple afi siwo le miaƒe anyigba gblẽm la ƒe nɔnɔmewo eye miade bubu Israel ƒe Mawu la ŋu. Ɖewohĩ aɖe eƒe dɔmedzoe si wòda ɖe miawo ŋutɔ kple miaƒe mawuawo kple miaƒe anyigba dzi la ɖa.
Itai zviumbwa zvamamota nembeva dzacho, izvo zviri kuparadza nyika, uye mugopa kukudzwa kuna Mwari weIsraeri. Zvikada achasimudza ruoko rwake kubva pamuri napana vamwari venyu nenyika yenyu.
6 Nu ka ŋuti miesẽ miaƒe dzi me abe ale si Egiptetɔwo kple Farao wɔ ene? Esi wòwɔ fu wo la ɖe womeɖo Israelviwo ɖa be woadzo oa?
Sei muchiomesa mwoyo yenyu sezvakaitwa navaIjipita naFaro? Paakavabata nehasha, havana kubudisa vaIsraeri here kuti vaende?
7 “Miwɔ tasiaɖam yeye eye miatsii ɖe nyinɔ eve siwo dzi vi le ŋkeke siawo me eye wometsi keke ɖe wo ŋu kpɔ haɖe o la ŋuti. Milé wo viwo de kpo me.
“Naizvozvo torai mugadzirire ngoro itsva, nemhou mbiri dzinonwisa uye dzisina kumbosungwa pajoko. Sungai mhou pangoro, asi torai mhuru dzadzo mugodzipfigira muchirugu.
8 Mitsɔ Yehowa ƒe nubablaɖaka la eye midae ɖe tasiaɖam la dzi, mitsɔ aɖaka si me avulénu siwo wowɔ kple sika, siwo ɖom miele ɖa abe avulénu ene la da ɖe exa. Miɖoe ɖe mɔ dzi,
Torai areka yaJehovha mugoiisa pangoro, uye mubhokisi parutivi payo isai zviumbwa zvegoridhe zvamuri kutumirako kwaari sechipo chemhosva. Mugoituma iende,
9 gake miaƒe ŋku nanɔ eŋuti. Nenye be eyi ɖe eya ŋutɔ ƒe anyigba dzi ɖo ta Bet Semes la, ekema Yehowae he dɔvɔ̃ sia va mía dzii. Gake ne mewɔe nenema o la, ekema míanyae be menye eƒe asie ƒo mí o, ke boŋ nane koe wònye va dzɔ ɖe mía dzi.”
asi, murambe makaitarisa. Kana ikakwidza kuenda kunyika yayo, kwakadziva kuBhetishemeshi, zvoreva kuti Jehovha ndiye anenge auyisa njodzi pamusoro pedu. Asi kana ikarega, ipapo tichaziva kuti harusi ruoko rwake rwakatirova uye kuti zvakangotiwirawo.”
10 Ale wowɔ nu si wogblɔ na wo. Wotsi nyinɔ eve ɖe tasiaɖam la ŋu eye wotu wo viwo ɖe kpo me.
Saka vakaita izvi. Vakatora mhou mbiri dzakadai vakadzisungirira pangoro uye vakapfigira mhuru dzadzo muchirugu.
11 Wotsɔ Yehowa ƒe nubablaɖaka la kple aɖaka si me sikafiwo kple sikaƒoƒoeawo nɔ la da ɖe tasiaɖam la dzi.
Vakaisa areka yaJehovha pangoro pamwe chete nebhokisi rakanga rine mbeva dzegoridhe nezviumbwa zvamamota.
12 Enumake nyinɔawo dze mɔ tẽe ɖo ta Bet Semes henɔ xɔxlɔ̃m sesĩe le mɔa dzi, womedze ɖe ɖusime alo miame o. Filistitɔwo ƒe amegãwo dze wo yome va se ɖe Bet Semes ƒe liƒo dzi.
Ipapo mhou dzakakwidza kuenda Bhetishemeshi, dzakati tande nenzira uye dzichikuma nzira yose; hadzina kutendeukira kurudyi kana kuruboshwe. Vatongi vavaFiristia vakadzitevera kusvikira kumuganhu weBhetishemeshi.
13 Bet Semestɔwo nɔ lu xam le balime le ɣe ma ɣi eye esi wofɔ mo dzi kpɔ nubablaɖaka la, wogli kple dzidzɔ!
Zvino vanhu veBhetishemeshi vakanga vachikohwa gorosi ravo mumupata, uye pavakasimudza misoro yavo vakaona areka, uye vakafara nokuiona.
14 Keke la ge ɖe ŋutsu aɖe si ŋkɔe nye Yosua, ame si tso Bet Semes la ƒe agble me eye wòtɔ ɖe agakpe gã aɖe gbɔ. Ameawo fli tasiaɖam la ƒe atiwo hedo dzo eye wowu nyiawo hesa numevɔ na Yehowa.
Ngoro yakauya kumunda waJoshua weBhetishemeshi uye ipapo yakamira parutivi rwedombo guru. Vanhu vakatema-tema mapuranga engoro uye vakabayira mhou idzi sechipiriso chinopiswa kuna Jehovha.

VaRevhi vakaburutsa areka yaJehovha, pamwe chete nebhokisi raiva nezviumbwa zvegoridhe, vakazvigadzika padombo guru. Musi iwoyo vanhu veBhetishemeshi vakapa zvipiriso zvinopiswa vakabayira zvibayiro kuna Jehovha.
16 Esi Filistitɔwo lé ŋku ɖe nuwo ƒe yiyi ŋu sẽe la, wotrɔ yi Ekron gbe ma gbe ke.
Vatongi vashanu vavaFiristia vakaona zvose izvi vakadzokera kuEkironi musi iwoyo.
17 Sikaƒoƒoe atɔ̃ siwo Filistitɔwo ɖo ɖa abe fɔɖivɔsanu ene la nye nunana tso Asdod, Gaza, Askelon, Gat kple Ekron ƒe amegãwo gbɔ.
Aya ndiwo mamota egoridhe akatumirwa navaFiristia sechipiriso chemhosva kuna Jehovha, rimwe kuAshidhodhi, rimwe kuGaza, rimwe kuAshikeroni, rimwe kuGati nerimwe kuEkironi.
18 Woɖo sikafiawo ɖa abe avulévɔsanu ene na Yehowa ɖe Filistitɔwo ƒe du bubuwo ta, ɖe du gã siwo woglã kple kɔƒe siwo nɔ amegã atɔ̃awo ƒe dzikpɔkpɔ te la siaa nu. Agakpe gã si dzi woda nubablaɖaka la ɖo le Bet Semes la gale Yosua ƒe agble la me va se ɖe egbe.
Uye uwandu hwembeva dzegoridhe hwaienderana nouwandu hwamaguta avaFiristia akanga ari avatongi vashanu, maguta aiva namasvingo nemisha yawo yomumaruwa. Dombo guru ravakagadzika areka yaJehovha, riripo nanhasi sechapupu mumunda waJoshua weBhetishemeshi.
19 Ke Yehowa wu Bet Semestɔ blaadre elabena wokpɔ nubablaɖaka la me. Dukɔ la fa konyi le ame geɖe siwo Yehowa wu la ta.
Asi Mwari akauraya vamwe vavarume veBhetishemeshi, akauraya vanhu makumi manomwe vavo nokuti vakanga vadongorera mukati meareka yaJehovha. Vanhu vakachema nokuti Jehovha akanga auraya vanhu nokuuraya kukuru,
20 Ameawo bia be, “Ame kae ate ŋu atsi tsitre ɖe Yehowa, Mawu kɔkɔe sia, ƒe ŋkume? Afi ka miatsɔ nubablaɖaka la ayi?”
uye varume veBhetishemeshi vakabvunza vachiti, “Ndiani angamira pamberi paJehovha, Mwari uyu mutsvene? Areka iyi ichaenda kuna ani ichibva pano?”
21 Ale woɖo du ɖe Kiriat Yearimtɔwo kple kukuɖeɖe be, “Filistitɔwo tsɔ Yehowa ƒe nubablaɖaka la vɛ eya ta miva ne miakɔe yi mia gbɔe.”
Ipapo vakatumira nhume kuvanhu veKiriati Jearimi vachiti, “VaFiristia vadzosa areka yaJehovha. Dzikai kuno muzoitora kuti muende nayo kwenyu.”
