Kĩambĩrĩria 34
1 Na rĩrĩ, mũthenya ũmwe, Dina mũirĩtu ũrĩa Lea aaciarĩire Jakubu, nĩathiire gũceerera andũ-a-nja a bũrũri ũcio.
UDina indodakazi kaLeya, ayizalela uJakobe, wasephuma ukuyabona amadodakazi elizwe.
2 Na rĩrĩa Shekemu mũrũ wa Hamoru ũrĩa Mũhivi, mũnene wa gĩcigo kĩu aamuonire, akĩmũnyiita, agĩkoma nake na hinya.
Njalo uShekema indodana kaHamori umHivi, isiphathamandla selizwe, sambona, samthatha, salala laye, samona.
3 Na ngoro yake ĩkĩguucĩrĩrio nĩ Dina mwarĩ ũcio wa Jakubu, na akĩenda mũirĩtu ũcio na akĩmwarĩria wega.
Inhliziyo yaso yasinamathela kuDina indodakazi kaJakobe, sayithanda intombi, sakhuluma kunhliziyo yentombi.
4 Nake Shekemu akĩĩra ithe Hamoru atĩrĩ, “Njarĩrĩria harĩ ithe wa mũirĩtu ũyũ atuĩke mũtumia wakwa.”
UShekema wasekhuluma kuHamori uyise esithi: Ngithathela lintombi ibe ngumkami.
5 Rĩrĩa Jakubu aiguire atĩ mwarĩ Dina nĩarĩkĩtie gũthũkio-rĩ, na tondũ ariũ ake maarĩ gĩthaka-inĩ na mahiũ make, agĩkira na ũhoro ũcio o nginya rĩrĩa mainũkire.
UJakobe wasesizwa ukuthi usemngcolisile uDina indodakazi yakhe; lamadodana akhe ayesezifuyweni egangeni; njalo uJakobe wathula aze afika.
6 Hĩndĩ ĩyo Hamoru ithe wa Shekemu agĩthiĩ kwaria na Jakubu.
UHamori uyise kaShekema wasephuma waya kuJakobe ukuze akhulume laye.
7 Nao ariũ a Jakubu nĩmainũkĩte kuuma mĩgũnda-inĩ maigua ũrĩa gwekĩkĩte. Nao makĩiyũrwo nĩ kĩeha na mangʼũrĩ, tondũ Shekemu nĩekĩte ũndũ wa thoni thĩinĩ wa Isiraeli, nĩ gũkoma na mwarĩ wa Jakubu, ũndũ ũrĩa ũtagĩrĩirwo nĩ gwĩkwo.
Kwathi amadodana kaJakobe efika evela egangeni esezwile, amadoda adabuka, athukuthela kakhulu ngoba wayenze ubuphukuphuku koIsrayeli ngokulala lendodakazi kaJakobe, okungafanele kwenziwe ngokunjalo.
8 No Hamoru akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Ngoro ya mũrũ wakwa Shekemu nĩĩguucĩrĩirio nĩ mwarĩ wanyu. Ndamũthaitha ĩtĩkĩrai amũhikie atuĩke mũtumia wake.
UHamori wasekhuluma labo esithi: UShekema indodana yami, inhliziyo yakhe iyayilangatha indodakazi yenu; ake limnike yona ibe ngumkakhe.
9 Rekei tũhikanagie; mũtũheage airĩtu anyu na inyuĩ tũkamũheaga airĩtu aitũ.
Njalo yendiselanani lathi, lisiphe amadodakazi enu, lani lizithathele amadodakazi ethu.
10 Inyuĩ no mũtũũre hamwe na ithuĩ; bũrũri ũyũ gũtirĩ handũ mũrigĩrĩirio. Tũũrai kuo, mwonjorithagie kuo, na mwĩgĩĩre na indo ciaguo.”
Hlalani-ke lathi, lelizwe lizakuba phambi kwenu; hlalani lithengiselane kulo, lifuye kulo.
11 Ningĩ Shekemu akĩĩra ithe wa Dina na ariũ a ithe atĩrĩ, “Rekei njĩtĩkĩrĩke maitho-inĩ manyu na nĩngũmũhe o kĩrĩa gĩothe mũngĩnjĩtia.
UShekema wasesithi kuyise wentombi lakubanewabo: Angithole umusa emehlweni enu; lalokho elizakutsho kimi ngizanika.
12 Njĩtiai rũracio rwa mũhiki na kĩheo kĩrĩa ingĩrehe, o mũigana ũrĩa mũngĩenda, na nĩngũrĩha o kĩrĩa gĩothe mũngĩnjĩtia. No ndamũthaitha mũũhe mũirĩtu ũyũ atuĩke mũtumia wakwa.”
Yandisani kakhulu kimi ilobolo lesipho, njalo ngizakupha njengoba litshilo kimi; kodwa ngiphani intombi ibe ngumkami.
13 Na tondũ mwarĩ wa nyina Dina nĩarĩkĩtie gũthũkio-rĩ, ariũ a Jakubu rĩrĩa maaragia na Shekemu na ithe Hamoru, magĩcookia ũhoro ũcio na njĩra ya maheeni.
Amadodana kaJakobe asephendula uShekema loHamori uyise ngobuqili, athi, ngenxa yokuthi ubesemngcolisile uDina udadewabo,
14 Makĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Tũtingĩĩka ũndũ ta ũcio; tũtingĩheana mwarĩ witũ kũrĩ mũndũ ũtarĩ mũruu. Ũndũ ũcio no ũtuĩke wa gũtũnyararithia.
athi kubo: Asilakuyenza lindaba, ukunika udadewethu indoda engasokwanga, ngoba kulihlazo kithi.
15 Tũkũmwĩtĩkĩria tondũ wa gĩtũmi o kĩmwe tu; inyuĩ mũtuĩke ta ithuĩ na ũndũ wa kũruithia arũme anyu othe.
Kodwa ngalokhu singalivumela, uba libe njengathi, ukuthi wonke owesilisa wakini asokwe,
16 Hĩndĩ ĩyo nĩmũrĩhikagia airĩtu aitũ na nĩtũrĩhikagia airĩtu anyu. Nĩtũgũtũũrania na inyuĩ na tũtuĩke andũ amwe.
sizalinika-ke amadodakazi ethu, lathi amadodakazi enu sizithathele, njalo sihlale lani sibe yisizwe sinye.
17 No angĩkorwo mũtigwĩtĩkĩra kũrua-rĩ, tũkuoya mwarĩ witũ twĩthiĩre.”
Kodwa uba lingasilaleli lisokwe, sizathatha indodakazi yethu, sihambe.
18 Ũhoro ũcio ũkĩoneka ũrĩ mwega nĩ Hamoru na mũriũ Shekemu.
Lamazwi abo aba mahle emehlweni kaHamori, lemehlweni kaShekema indodana kaHamori.
19 Tondũ nĩwe warĩ mũtĩĩe mũno kũrĩ andũ othe a nyũmba ya ithe, mwanake ũcio ndaateire ihinda rĩa gwĩka ũrĩa moigire, tondũ nĩakenetio nĩ mwarĩ wa Jakubu.
Njalo ijaha kaliphuzanga ukwenza lindaba, ngoba yayilentokozo endodakazini kaJakobe; yayilodumo kulendlu yonke kayise.
20 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Hamoru na mũriũ Shekemu magĩthiĩ kĩhingo-inĩ gĩa itũũra rĩao inene makaarie na andũ ao a itũũra rĩu.
UHamori wasefika, loShekema indodana yakhe, esangweni lomuzi wabo, basebekhuluma kumadoda omuzi wabo, besithi:
21 Nao makiuga atĩrĩ, “Andũ aya nĩ arata aitũ; rekei matũũre bũrũri-inĩ witũ na monjorithagie kuo; bũrũri ũyũ nĩ mũnene wa kũmaigana. Ithuĩ no tũhikie airĩtu ao, nao no mahikie airĩtu aitũ.
Lamadoda alokuthula lathi; ngakho kabahlale elizweni bathengiselane kulo; ngoba ilizwe, khangelani, libanzi inhlangothi zombili phambi kwawo; amadodakazi abo sizawathatha abe ngomkethu, lamadodakazi ethu sizawanika wona.
22 No andũ acio mangĩtĩkĩra gũtũũrania na ithuĩ ta rũrĩrĩ rũmwe angĩkorwo arũme aitũ othe nĩmekũrua, o ta ũrĩa o maruĩte.
Kulokhu kuphela amadoda azavumelana lathi, ukuhlala lathi, ukuba yisizwe sinye, nxa wonke owesilisa wethu esokiwe, njengalokhu esokiwe wona.
23 Githĩ mahiũ mao, na indo ciao ciothe, o na nyamũ iria ingĩ ciao ciothe itigũgĩtuĩka ciitũ? Nĩ ũndũ ũcio rekei tũmetĩkĩre, na nĩ megũtũũrania na ithuĩ.”
Inkomo zawo lempahla yawo lazo zonke izifuyo zawo kaziyikuba ngezethu yini? Kuphela asiwavumele, ahlale-ke lathi.
24 Arũme arĩa othe maathiĩte kĩhingo-inĩ gĩa itũũra rĩu inene magĩĩtĩkania na Hamoru na mũriũ Shekemu, na arũme othe a itũũra rĩu makĩrua.
Basebelalela uHamori loShekema indodana yakhe, bonke abaphuma ngesango lomuzi wakhe; basebesokwa, wonke owesilisa, bonke abaphuma ngesango lomuzi wakhe.
25 Thuutha wa mĩthenya ĩtatũ, hĩndĩ ĩrĩa othe maarĩ na ruo ariũ eerĩ a Jakubu, Simeoni na Lawi, ariũ a nyina na Dina, makĩoya hiũ ciao cia njora magĩtharĩkĩra itũũra rĩu hĩndĩ ĩrĩa rĩtekũũaga makĩũraga arũme othe.
Kwasekusithi ngosuku lwesithathu beselobuhlungu, amadodana amabili kaJakobe, oSimeyoni loLevi, abanewabo bakaDina, ngulowo lalowo wathatha inkemba yakhe, awujuma umuzi, abulala wonke owesilisa.
26 Ningĩ makĩũraga Hamoru na mũriũ Shekemu na rũhiũ rwa njora, na makĩruta Dina nyũmba-inĩ ya Shekemu, magĩĩthiĩra.
Asebabulala oHamori loShekema indodana yakhe ngobukhali benkemba, amkhupha uDina endlini kaShekema, aphuma.
27 Ariũ arĩa angĩ a Jakubu magĩkinya kũu ciimba ciarĩ, na magĩĩtahĩra indo cia itũũra rĩu mwarĩ wa ithe wao aathũkĩirio.
Amadodana kaJakobe ehlela phezu kwasebebulewe, awuphanga umuzi, ngoba babemngcolisile udadewabo.
28 Nao magĩtaha ndũũru cia mbũri na cia ngʼombe na ndigiri, na indo iria ingĩ ciao ciothe iria ciarĩ itũũra-inĩ rĩu inene, na iria ciarĩ mĩgũnda-inĩ.
Athatha izimvu zabo lenkomo zabo labobabhemi babo lalokho okwakusemzini lalokho okwakusegangeni,
29 Na magĩkuua ũtonga wothe wa itũũra, na atumia othe na ciana, magĩtaha indo ciothe iria ciarĩ nyũmba-inĩ icio.
lenotho yabo yonke, labantwana babo bonke abancinyane, labomkabo, athumba abaphanga, lakho konke okwakusendlini.
30 Nake Jakubu akĩĩra Simeoni na Lawi atĩrĩ, “Nĩmwandehera thĩĩna nĩ ũndũ wa gũtũma menwo nĩ Akaanani na Aperizi, andũ arĩa matũũraga bũrũri ũyũ. Ithuĩ tũrĩ anini tũgĩtarwo, na mangĩnyiitana manjũkĩrĩre na matharĩkĩre-rĩ, niĩ na nyũmba yakwa no tũniinwo.”
UJakobe wasesithi kuSimeyoni loLevi: Lingihluphile, ngokungenza ukuthi ngibe levumba phakathi kwabakhileyo belizwe, phakathi kwamaKhanani lamaPerizi; njalo ngimlutshwana, futhi bazangihlanganyela bangitshaye, ngibe sengichitheka mina lendlu yami.
31 Nao makĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Nĩkũraagĩrĩire atue mwarĩ wa maitũ ta mũmaraya?”
Basebesithi: Amenze yini udadewethu njengesifebe?
