Mose 1 38
1 Le ɣe ma ɣi me la, Yuda ʋu le nɔviawo gbɔ heyi Adulam, eye wònɔ ŋutsu aɖe si ŋkɔe nye Hira la gbɔ.
Ngalesosikhathi uJuda watshiya abafowabo wahamba wayahlala lendoda yase-Adulami eyayithiwa nguHira.
2 Yuda do go Kanaan nyɔnu aɖe si nye Sua ƒe vi la le afi ma, eye wòɖee.
Khonale uJuda wabonana lendodakazi yendoda engumKhenani eyayithiwa nguShuwa. Wayithatha wembatha layo;
3 Efɔ fu, eye wòdzi ŋutsuvi, eye wòna ŋkɔe be Er.
yathatha isisu yazala indodana yathiwa ngu-Eri.
4 Egafɔ fu, dzi ŋutsuvi, eye wòna ŋkɔe be Onan.
Wazithwala njalo wazala indodana wayithi ngu-Onani.
5 Egadzi ŋutsuvi ake, eye wòtsɔ ŋkɔ nɛ be Sela; teƒe si wodzii le lae nye Kezib.
Wazala njalo enye indodana wayithi nguShela. Le wayizalela eKhezibhi.
6 Esi via Er tsi la, Yuda na wòɖe nyɔnuvi aɖe si ŋkɔe nye Tamar.
UJuda wazuzela u-Eri izibulo lakhe umfazi, ibizo lakhe linguThamari.
7 Ke Er, Yuda ƒe ŋgɔgbevi nye ŋutsu vɔ̃ɖi aɖe, eya ta Yehowa wui.
Kodwa u-Eri izibulo likaJuda, wayengcolile emehlweni kaThixo; uThixo wasembulala.
8 Yuda gblɔ na Er nɔviŋutsu Onan be, “Ele be nàɖe Tamar abe ale si míaƒe se di tso ame kuku nɔviŋutsu si be wòawɔ ene, ale be Tamar ƒe vi siwo wòadzi na wò la nanyi nɔviwò kukua ƒe dome.”
UJuda wasesithi ku-Onani, “Lala lomkamfowenu ugcwalise umlandu wakho njengomfowabo uzalele umfowenu abantwana.”
9 Ke Onan medi be yeadzi vi si womabu abe ye ŋutɔ tɔ ene o, eya ta togbɔ be eɖe Tamar hã la, ɣe sia ɣi si wòadɔ Tamar gbɔ la, enana eƒe ŋutsutsi la duduna ɖe aba la dzi, ale be Tamar mafɔ fu adzi vi si anye nɔvia kukua tɔ o.
Kodwa u-Onani wakwazi ukuthi inzalo leyo yayingezukuba ngeyakhe; ngakho kwakusithi sonke isikhathi angalala lomkamfowabo achithele inhlanyelo phansi emhlabathini ukuze angaze azalela umfowabo abantwana.
10 Le Yehowa gbɔ la, enye nu vɔ̃ Onan wɔ be wògbe be yemadzi vi na ye nɔvi kukua o, eya ta Yehowa wu eya hã.
Lokho ayekwenza kwakukubi emehlweni kaThixo; ngakho uThixo wambulala.
11 Eya ta Yuda gblɔ na toyɔvia, Tamar be megaɖe srɔ̃ azɔ le ɣe ma ɣi me o, ke boŋ wòatrɔ ayi wo de le edzilawo gbɔ, eye wòanye ahosi va se ɖe esime ye vi suetɔ, Sela natsi ate ŋu aɖee. Ke Yuda meɖo le nyateƒe me be Sela naɖee o, gake egblɔ nenema, elabena evɔ̃ be Mawu ava wu eya hã abe ale si wòwu foa eveawo ene. Ale Tamar yi wo de le edzilawo gbɔ.
UJuda wasesithi kumalukazana wakhe uThamari, “Hamba uyehlala njengomfelokazi emzini kayihlo indodana yami uShela ize ikhule.” Ngoba wanakana wathi, “Laye angafa njengabanewabo.” Ngakho uThamari wahamba wayahlala emzini kayise.
12 Le ɣeyiɣi aɖe megbe la, Yuda srɔ̃ ku. Le kunuwɔwɔ nɛ vɔ megbe la, Yuda kple exɔlɔ̃, Hira, Adulamtɔ la yi Timna be woakpɔ fukoko na alẽwo dzi.
Ngemva kwesikhathi eside umkaJuda, indodakazi kaShuwa wafa. Kwathi uJuda eseduduzekile waya eThimina, emadodeni ayegunda izimvu zakhe, ehamba lomngane wakhe uHira umʼAdulami.
13 Esi ame aɖe gblɔ na Tamar be toa dze Timna mɔ dzi hegbɔna fu ko ge na alẽawo,
Kwathi uThamari esetsheliwe kwathiwa, “Uyihlozala uyeza eThimina ukuzagunda izimvu zakhe,”
14 eye esi wònya azɔ kɔtɛe be womaɖe mɔ yeaɖe Sela o, togbɔ be Sela tsi azɔ hã la, eɖe eƒe ahovɔ da ɖi, eye wòtsɔ motsyɔvɔ tsyɔ mo, ale be womagadze si ye o. Enɔ anyi ɖe mɔ to le Enaim si le Timna mɔ dzi la ƒe agbo nu.
wakhulula izigqoko zakhe zokuzila wazimboza ngesimbombozo ukuzifihla, wasehlala phansi eduzane lesango lase-Enayimi, elisendleleni yaseThimina. Ngoba wabona ukuthi loba uShela wayesekhulile, yena wayelokhu engakamphiwa ukuthi abe ngumkakhe.
15 Yuda kpɔe esime wòva yina, eye wòbu be gboloe le eƒe motsyɔvɔ la ta.
UJuda wathi embona wacabanga ukuthi yisifebe, ngoba wayezivale ubuso.
16 Ale Yuda gogoe hebiae be wòana yeadɔ egbɔ, ke menya be ye ŋutɔ yeƒe toyɔvie o. Tamar biae be, “Ho neni nàxe nam?”
Kwathi ngoba engamboni ukuthi ngumalokazana wakhe waya kuye eceleni komgwaqo wathi, “Woza manje, ngifuna ukulala lawe.” Yena wabuza wathi, “Uzangiphani ngingalala lawe?”
17 Yuda do ŋugbe nɛ be, “Maɖo gbɔ̃vi aɖe ɖe wò tso nye lãwo dome.” Tamar biae be, “Nu ka nàtsɔ ade awɔba, ale be maka ɖe edzi be àɖo gbɔ̃vi la ɖem?”
Wathi, “Ngizakuthumezela izinyane lembuzi emhlambini wami.” UThamari wabuza wathi, “Uzangipha na ulutho lube yisibambiso ungakalithumezi?”
18 Yuda biae be, “Enyo, awɔbanu kae nèhiã?” Tamar ɖo eŋu be, “Tsɔ wò ŋkɔsigɛ si nètsɔna dea dzesi wò nuwo kple wò atizɔti nam.” Ale Yuda tsɔ wo nɛ. Tamar lɔ̃ Yuda dɔ egbɔ, eye wòfɔ fu.
Wathi, “Ngikuphe sibambiso bani?” Waphendula wathi, “Isilengiso sophawu lwakho lentambo yaso, kanye lodondolo lwakho oluphetheyo.” Ngakho wamupha lezozinto waselala laye, wahle wazithwala.
19 Le esia megbe la, Tamar gade asi eƒe ahovɔ la tata me abe tsã ene.
Esesuka lapho uThamari wakhupha isimbombozo sakhe wagqoka izigqoko zakhe zokuzila njalo.
20 Yuda gblɔ na exɔlɔ̃ Hira, Adulamtɔ la be wòalé gbɔ̃vi la ayi na Tamar, eye wòaxɔ awɔbanuawo vɛ, ke Hira mete ŋu ke ɖe Tamar ŋu o.
Kusenjalo uJuda wathumezela izinyane lembuzi ngomngane wakhe umʼAdulami ukuze abuyiselwe isibambiso sakhe esasikowesifazane lowo, kodwa wamswela.
21 Hira bia dua me ŋutsuwo be, “Afi ka gbolo si nɔa ŋutsuwo dim le mɔ to le Enaim dua ƒe agbonu la le?” Woɖo eŋu be, “Gbolo aɖeke menɔ afi sia kpɔ o.”
Wabuza amadoda ayehlala lapho wathi, “Singaphi isifebe ebesilapha eceleni komgwaqo e-Enayimi na?” Athi, “Kakuzange kube lesifebe lapha.”
22 Ale wòtrɔ va Yuda gbɔ, gblɔ nɛ be yemete ŋu ke ɖe eŋu o, eye wògblɔ nya si dua me ŋutsuwo gblɔ nɛ la na Yuda.
Ngakho wasebuyela kuJuda wayakuthi, “Kangimfumananga. Futhi amadoda lawo ahlala khona athi kakuzange kube lesifebe esasihlala lapho.”
23 Yuda gblɔ be, “Ekema awɔbanuawo netsi egbɔ faa! Míedze agbagba ale si míate ŋui. Ne míegale eyome tim kokoko la, dua me tɔwo ako mí. Meɖo gbɔ̃tsu la ɖee, ke mèkpɔe o.”
UJuda wasesithi, “Myekele ahle akugcine khonokho alakho funa sicine sesiyinhlekisa. Phezu kwalokho mina bengimthumezele izinyane lembuzi, kodwa kawusamfumananga.”
24 Le ɣleti etɔ̃ megbe la, woɖo du ɖe Yuda be toyɔvia Tamar fɔ fu le gbolowɔwɔ ta. Yuda do ɣli be, “Mihee vɛ, eye miatɔ dzoe!”
Ngemva kwezinyanga ezintathu uJuda watshelwa ukuthi umalukazana wakhe uThamari wayesefebile wasethatha isisu. UJuda wathi, “Mkhupheni, atshiswe aze afe.”
25 Ke esi wohee yina wuwu ge la, eɖo du ɖe toa be, “Ame si tɔ ŋkɔsigɛ kple eŋuti ka kple atizɔti sia nye la, eya tututue nye ɖevi si dzi ge megbɔna la fofo. Ènya nane tso ŋkɔsigɛ kple atizɔti sia ŋua?”
Kwathi lapho ekhutshwa wathumela ilizwi kuyisezala wathi, “Ngoniwa yindoda engumnikazi walezizinto.” Wengeza ngokuthi, “Akubone ukuthi singaba ngesikabani isilengiso sophawu lesi lentambo kanye lodondolo lolu.”
26 Yuda lɔ̃ be ye tɔwoe, eye wògblɔ be, “Etɔ dzɔ, elabena megbe be nyemawɔ ŋugbedodo dzi atsɔe na vinye, Sela wòaɖe o.” Tso ema dzi la, megadɔ kplii kpɔ o.
UJuda wazazi izinto lezo wathi, “Ulungile kulami, ngoba kangisamphanga endodaneni yami uShela.” Kasaphindanga wembatha laye njalo.
27 Eƒe vidziɣi ɖo, eye wòdzi evenɔvi siwo nye ŋutsuviwo.
Kwathi isikhathi sakhe sokubeletha sesifikile, wayelamaphahla angabafana esiswini.
28 Esi wònɔ ɖeviawo dzim la, vixela la sa ka dzĩ aɖe ɖe ɖevi si do gbɔna gbã la ƒe alɔnu,
Wathi khonapho ebeletha omunye wawo wakhupha isandla; umbelethisi wathatha intambo ebomvu wayibophela esihlakaleni sesandla salo wathi, “Leli yilo eliphume kuqala.”
29 ke ɖevi la he asi ɖe megbe yi dadaa ƒe dɔ me, eye wodzi ɖevi evelia gbã. Vixela la bia be, “Nu ka ta nèdo ŋgɔ na nɔviwòa ɖo?” Tso gbe ma gbe dzi la, woyɔa ɖevi sia be Perez si gɔmee nye “Ŋgɔdodo.”
Kodwa labuyisela isandla, umfowabo waphuma kuqala, wasesithi, “Le yiyo indlela ofohle ngayo!” Laseliphiwa ibizo elithi nguPherezi.
30 Eteƒe medidi hafi wodzi ɖevi si ƒe alɔnu ka dzĩ la le la o. Wona ŋkɔe be Zera.
Ngakho umfowabo, owayelentambo esihlakaleni, waphuma wethiwa ibizo wathiwa nguZera.
