Ʋɔnudrɔ̃lawo 13
1 Israelviwo gawɔ nu si nye vɔ̃ le Yehowa ŋkume, ale Yehowa tsɔ wo de asi na Filistitɔwo ƒe blaene sɔŋ.
Abantwana bakoIsrayeli babuya-ke benza okubi emehlweni eNkosi. INkosi yasibanikela esandleni samaFilisti iminyaka engamatshumi amane.
2 Ŋutsu aɖe nɔ Zora du la me, eŋkɔe nye Manoa, tso Dan ƒe to la me. Manoa srɔ̃ tsi ko, medzi vi kpɔ o.
Kwakukhona-ke umuntu othile weZora, owosendo lwakoDani, obizo lakhe lalinguManowa; lomkakhe wayeyinyumba engazali.
3 Yehowa ƒe dɔla aɖe ɖe eɖokui fiae eye wògblɔ nɛ be, “Wò la, ètsi ko eye mèdzi vi o gake èle fu fɔ ge adzi ŋutsuvi.
Ingilosi yeNkosi yasibonakala kowesifazana yathi kuye: Khangela-ke, uyinyumba, kawuzali, kodwa uzathatha isisu uzale indodana.
4 Azɔ la, kpɔ egbɔ be mèno wain alo aha muame aɖeke o, eye màɖu naneke si ŋuti mekɔ o
Ngakho-ke ake uqaphelise, unganathi wayini lokunathwayo okulamandla, ungadli lalutho olungcolileyo,
5 elabena àfɔ fu eye àdzi ŋutsuvi. Talũhɛ maka eƒe ta ŋu o, elabena ŋutsuvi la anye Naziritɔ, ame si woɖe ɖe aga na Mawu tso dadaa ƒe dɔ me, eye eyae adze Israelviwo ɖeɖe tso Filistitɔwo ƒe asi me gɔme.”
ngoba khangela, uzathatha isisu uzale indodana. Impuco kayiyikudlula ekhanda layo, ngoba umfana uzakuba ngumNaziri kaNkulunkulu kusukela esizalweni; yena uzaqala ukusindisa uIsrayeli esandleni samaFilisti.
6 Tete nyɔnu la yi srɔ̃a gbɔ eye wògblɔ nɛ be, “Mawu ƒe ame aɖe va gbɔnye, edzi ŋɔ ŋutɔ eye wòdze abe Mawudɔla ene. Nyemebia afi si wòtso lae o, eye meyɔ eƒe ŋkɔ hã nam o.
Owesifazana wasesiza wabikela indoda yakhe esithi: Kufikile kimi umuntu kaNkulunkulu, ukubonakala kwakhe kwakunjengokubonakala kwengilosi kaNkulunkulu, kusesabeka kakhulu; kodwa kangimbuzanga ukuthi uvela ngaphi, futhi kangitshelanga ibizo lakhe.
7 Egblɔ nam be, ‘Èle fu fɔ ge, àdzi ŋutsuvi, eya ta azɔ la, mègano wain alo aha muame bubu aɖeke o eye mègaɖu nu makɔmakɔ aɖeke o elabena ŋutsuvi la anye Naziritɔ na Mawu tso eƒe dzigbe va se ɖe eƒe kugbe.’”
Kodwa uthe kimi: Khangela, uzathatha isisu, uzale indodana; khathesi-ke unganathi wayini lokunathwayo okulamandla, ungadli lalutho olungcolileyo, ngoba umfana uzakuba ngumNaziri kaNkulunkulu kusukela esizalweni kuze kube sosukwini lokufa kwakhe.
8 Tete Manoa do gbe ɖa na Yehowa be, “Oo, Aƒetɔ, míeɖe kuku, na ame si tso Mawu gbɔ la, nagava mía gbɔ eye wòafia nu mí tso ale si míahe ɖevi si dzi ge míala la ŋu.”
UManowa waseyincenga iNkosi wathi: Hawu Nkosi yami, umuntu kaNkulunkulu omthumileyo ake abuye futhi kithi, asifundise ukuthi sizakwenza njani emfaneni ozazalwa.
9 Mawu se Manoa ƒe gbedodoɖa eye Mawudɔla la gaɖe eɖokui fia srɔ̃a esime wònɔ agble me. Eya ɖeka koe nɔ afi ma: Manoa menɔ afi ma o
UNkulunkulu waselizwa ilizwi likaManowa, lengilosi kaNkulunkulu yafika futhi kowesifazana ehlezi egangeni; kodwa uManowa umkakhe wayengelaye.
10 eya ta nyɔnu la ƒu du sesĩe ɖagblɔ na srɔ̃a be, “Eyae nye ekem! Ŋutsu si va gbɔnye nyitsɔ la, eya kee gava.”
Owesifazana wasehaluzela wagijima wabikela umkakhe wathi: Khangela, lowomuntu ubonakele kimi owafika kimi mhlalokhuyana.
11 Manoa ƒu du kple srɔ̃a yi ŋutsu la gbɔ eye Manoa biae be, “Wòe nye ŋutsu si ƒo nu kple srɔ̃nye nyitsɔa?” Ŋutsu la ɖo eŋu be, “Ɛ̃, nyee.”
UManowa wasesukuma walandela umkakhe, wafika kulowomuntu wathi kuye: Unguye yini lowomuntu owakhuluma kulowesifazana? Wasesithi: Nginguye.
12 Ale Manoa biae be, “Ne wò nyawo va eme la, ɖoɖo kawoe anɔ ɖevia ƒe agbenɔnɔ kple eƒe dɔwɔna ŋu?”
UManowa wasesithi: Kaweze-ke amazwi akho; izakuba yini indlela yomfana, lomsebenzi wakhe?
13 Yehowa ƒe dɔla ɖo eŋu nɛ be, “Ele be srɔ̃wò nawɔ nu sia nu si megblɔ nɛ.
Ingilosi yeNkosi yasisithi kuManowa: Kukho konke engakutshoyo kowesifazana akuqaphelise;
14 Mele be wòaɖu waintsetse alo ano wain alo aha muame o eye mele be wòaɖu nu makɔmakɔ aɖeke hã o. Ele be wòawɔ nu sia nu si ƒe se mede nɛ.”
angadli okolutho oluphuma evinini lewayini, anganathi wayini lokunathwayo okulamandla, angadli lutho olungcolileyo; konke engamlaya khona akugcine.
15 Manoa gblɔ na Yehowa ƒe dɔla la be, “Míadi be nànɔ mía gbɔ va se ɖe esime míalé gbɔ̃vi aɖe aɖa nui na wò.”
UManowa wasesithi engilosini yeNkosi: Ake sikubambelele, silungise phambi kwakho izinyane lembuzi.
16 Yehowa ƒe dɔla la ɖo eŋu be, “Togbɔ be mielém ɖi hã la, nyemaɖu miaƒe nuɖaɖa ƒe ɖeke o gake ne miedzra numevɔsa aɖe ɖo la, mitsɔe na Yehowa.” Manoa menya be Yehowa ƒe dɔlae wònye o.
Ingilosi yeNkosi yasisithi kuManowa: Uba ungibambelela, kangiyikudla okwesinkwa sakho; njalo uba ulungisa umnikelo wokutshiswa, unikele eNkosini. Ngoba uManowa wayengazi ukuthi yayiyingilosi yeNkosi.
17 Manoa bia Yehowa ƒe dɔla la be “Wò ŋkɔ ɖe? Ale be ne wò nya la va eme la, ne míade bubu ŋuwò.”
UManowa wasesithi kuyo ingilosi yeNkosi: Ungubani ibizo lakho, ukuze kuthi lapho amazwi akho esiza sikuhloniphe.
18 Eɖo eŋu be, “Nu ka ŋuti nèle nye ŋkɔ biam ɖo? Nye ŋkɔ ƒo gɔmesese ta.”
Ingilosi yeNkosi yasisithi kuye: Ubuzelani kanje ngebizo lami lokhu liyamangalisa?
19 Manoa lé gbɔ̃vi aɖe kpe ɖe nuɖuvɔsa ŋu eye wòsa vɔ na Yehowa le agakpe aɖe dzi. Tete Yehowa wɔ nukunu aɖe le Manoa kple srɔ̃a ŋkume.
UManowa wasethatha izinyane lembuzi lomnikelo wokudla, wakunikela eNkosini phezu kwedwala, yasisenza ngokumangalisayo, njalo uManowa lomkakhe bekhangele.
20 Esi dzo ƒe aɖewo tso vɔsamlekpui la dzi ɖo ta dziŋgɔli me la, Yehowa ƒe dɔla la to dzo la me yi dziƒo. Esi Manoa kple srɔ̃a kpɔ esia la, wotsyɔ mo anyi.
Kwasekusithi lapho ilangabi lisenyuka elathini liqonde emazulwini, ingilosi yeNkosi yenyuka ngelangabi lelathi, uManowa lomkakhe bekhangele, bathi mbo ngobuso babo emhlabathini.
21 Esi Yehowa ƒe dɔla la megaɖe eɖokui fia Manoa kple srɔ̃a o la, Manoa kpɔe dze sii be Yehowa ƒe dɔlae.
Kodwa ingilosi yeNkosi kayiphindanga isabonakala kuManowa lomkakhe. Khona uManowa wazi ukuthi kwakuyingilosi yeNkosi.
22 Manoa do ɣli gblɔ na srɔ̃a be, “Aléle, míedze na ku elabena míekpɔ Mawu.”
UManowa wasesithi kumkakhe: Sizakufa lokufa ngoba sibone uNkulunkulu.
23 Ke srɔ̃a gblɔ nɛ be, “Nenye ɖe Yehowa le mía wu ge la, anye ne maxɔ míaƒe numevɔsa kple nuɖuvɔsa o eye maɖe eɖokui afia mí, agblɔ nya wɔnuku sia na mí eye wòawɔ nukunu siawo o.”
Kodwa umkakhe wathi kuye: Uba iNkosi ibithanda ukusibulala, ibingayikwemukela esandleni sethu umnikelo wokutshiswa lomnikelo wokudla, njalo ibingayikusitshengisa zonke lezizinto, njalo ibingayikusizwisa ngalesisikhathi izinto ezinjengalezi.
24 Esi wodzi ɖevia la, wona ŋkɔe be Samson. Mawu yrae eye wòtsi.
Owesifazana wasebeletha indodana, wayitha ibizo layo wathi nguSamsoni; umfana wasekhula, leNkosi yambusisa.
25 Yehowa ƒe Gbɔgbɔ de asi edzidzedze me le Dan ƒe asaɖa me le Zora kple Estaol duawo dome.
UMoya weNkosi waseqala ukumvusa enkambeni kaDani phakathi kweZora leEshitawoli.
