Pazuva rechina vakamuka mangwanani vakagadzirira kuti vaende, asi baba vomusikana vakati kumukuwasha wavo, “Simbisa mwoyo wako nechokudya; ipapo mugoenda henyu.”
6 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio eerĩ magĩikara thĩ kũrĩa na kũnyua. Thuutha-inĩ ithe wa mũirĩtu akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Ndagũthaitha raara na wĩkenie.”
Saka vose vari vaviri vakagara pasi kuti vadye nokunwa pamwe chete. Mushure maizvozvo, baba vomusikana vakati, “Ndapota chivata hako usiku uno uye umbofara.”
7 Na hĩndĩ ĩrĩa mũndũ ũcio ookĩrire athiĩ, mũthoni-we akĩmũringĩrĩria araare; nĩ ũndũ ũcio akĩraara ũtukũ ũcio.
Uye murume uyu akati asimuka kuti aende, tezvara vake vakamunyengetedza, saka akavatapo usiku uhwo.
8 Rũciinĩ rwa mũthenya wa gatano, okĩra athiĩ, ithe wa mũirĩtu ũcio akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Wĩkenie. Eterera nginya mĩaraho!” Nĩ ũndũ ũcio eerĩ makĩrĩanĩra.

10 No rĩrĩ, tondũ ndendire gũikara ũtukũ ũngĩ, mũndũ ũcio akiuma kuo agĩthiĩ erekeire mwena wa Jebusi (na nĩkuo, Jerusalemu), arĩ na ndigiri ciake cierĩ ciohetwo matandĩko na thuriya yake.
Asi, nokusada kuvatazve humwe usiku, murume uya akabuda akaenda akananga kuJebhusi (ndiro Jerusarema), nembongoro dzake mbiri dzakaiswa zvigaro, nomurongo wake.
11 Rĩrĩa maakuhĩrĩirie Jebusi na kũrĩ hakuhĩ gũtuka-rĩ, ndungata ĩyo ĩkĩĩra mwathi wayo atĩrĩ, “Rĩu-rĩ, reke tũtithie gũkũ itũũra-inĩ rĩĩrĩ inene rĩa Ajebusi tũraarĩrĩre kuo.”
Vakati vava pedyo neJebhusi uye zuva rakanga rovira, muranda akati kuna tenzi wake, “Uyai, titsaukire muguta iri ravaJebhusi tindovatamo.”
12 Mwathi wayo agĩcookia atĩrĩ, “Aca. Tũtigũtoonya itũũra inene rĩa andũ ageni, andũ a rĩo ti Aisiraeli. Tũgũthiĩ nginya tũkinye Gibea.”

13 Nake akiuga o rĩngĩ atĩrĩ, “Nĩtũthiĩ tũgerie gũkinya Gibea kana Rama na tũrarĩrĩre itũũra rĩmwe rĩamo.”
Akaenderera mberi akati, “Uyai, tiedze kusvika kuGibhea kana kuRama tigovata mune imwe yenzvimbo idzi.”
14 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio magĩthiĩ na mbere, narĩo riũa rĩgĩthũa magĩkorwo maakuhĩrĩria Gibea, kũu Benjamini.
Saka vakapfuurira mberi, uye zuva rakavira pavakanga vasvika muGibhea muBhenjamini.
15 Kũu nĩkuo maatithirie maraarĩrĩre. Nao magĩthiĩ magĩikara thĩ kĩhaaro-inĩ kĩnene gĩa itũũra rĩu inene, no gũtirĩ mũndũ o na ũmwe wamanyiitire ũgeni mararĩrĩre gwake.
Imomo, ndimo mavakamira kuti vavate. Vakaenda vakandogara muchivara cheguta, asi hapana munhu akavatora akavapinza mumba make usiku.
16 Hwaĩ-inĩ ũcio, mũthuuri ũmwe mũkũrũ wa kuuma bũrũri ũrĩa ũrĩ irĩma wa Efiraimu, watũũraga Gibea, (andũ a kũu maarĩ Abenjamini), agĩũka oimĩte wĩra mĩgũnda-inĩ.
Madekwana iwayo, imwe harahwa yaibva munyika yezvikomo yeEfuremu, yaigara muGibhea (vanhu venzvimbo vaiva vaBhenjamini), yakasvika ichibva kubasa rayo kumunda.
17 Na rĩrĩa aarorire akĩona mũgendi ũcio hau kĩhaaro-inĩ gĩa itũũra inene, mũthuuri ũcio akĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Wathiĩ kũ na uumĩte kũ?”
Yakati yatarira ikaona mufambi ari muchivara cheguta, harahwa yakabvunza ikati, “Uri kuendepiko? Wabvepiko?”
18 Agĩcookia atĩrĩ, “Tuumĩte Bethilehemu ya Juda twerekeire kũndũ kũraya thĩinĩ wa bũrũri ũrĩa ũrĩ irĩma wa Efiraimu kũrĩa ndũũraga. Ndĩrarĩ Bethilehemu ya Juda na rĩu ndĩrathiĩ nyũmba ya Jehova. Gũtirĩ mũndũ o na ũmwe ũũnyiitĩte ũgeni gwake.
Akapindura akati, “Tiri kubva kuBheterehema muJudha; tiri kuenda kure kunyika yezvikomo yeEfuremu, ndiko kwandinogara. Ndakanga ndiri kuBheterehema muJudha, asi iye zvino ndiri kuenda kumba kwaJehovha. Hapana munhu anditora akandipinza mumba make.
19 Ithuĩ tũrĩ na mahuti na irio cia ndigiri ciitũ na mĩgate na ndibei nĩ ũndũ witũ ithuĩ ndungata ciaku, niĩ, na ndungata yaku ya mũirĩtu, na mwanake ũyũ tũrĩ nake. Tũtikũbatario nĩ kĩndũ o na kĩ.”
Tine zvose mashanga nouswa hwembongoro dzedu uye chingwa chedu newaini yedu, isu varanda venyu, ini, murandakadzi wenyu, nejaya ratinaro. Hatina chinhu chatingada hedu.”
20 Nake mũthuuri ũcio mũkũrũ akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Nĩũnyiitĩtwo ũgeni nyũmba-inĩ ĩno yakwa, reke ngũhe kĩrĩa gĩothe ũbatarĩtio nĩkĩo, no ndũkaraare kĩhaaro.”
Harahwa yakati, “Munogona kuuya kumba kwangu. Ndichakupai zvose zvamunoshayiwa. Asi bedzi usavata pachivara.”
21 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio akĩmũtoonyia nyũmba yake na akĩhe ndigiri ciake gĩa kũrĩa. Maarĩkia gwĩthamba magũrũ-rĩ, makĩrĩa na makĩnyua.
Saka akamutora akamupinza mumba make uye akapa mbongoro dzake zvokudya. Vakati vashamba tsoka dzavo, vakadya zvokudya uye vakanwa.
22 Na hĩndĩ o ĩyo meekenagia-rĩ, andũ amwe aaganu a itũũra rĩu inene makĩrigiicĩria nyũmba ĩyo. Makĩhũũra mũrango, na makĩgũthũkĩra mũthuuri ũcio mũkũrũ ũrĩa warĩ mwene nyũmba ĩyo, makiuga atĩrĩ, “Ruta mũndũ ũcio ũũkire nyũmba yaku nĩguo tũkome nake.”
Vachiri pakufara havo, vamwe vanhu vakaipa vomuguta vakakomba imba. Vachigogodza pamukova, vakadanidzira kuharahwa yakanga iri iyo muridzi weimba vachiti, “Budisa murume uyo apinda mumba mako kuti tivate naye.”
23 Mwene nyũmba ĩyo akiuma na nja akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Aca, arata akwa, mũtigeke ũndũ wa waganu ũguo. Kuona atĩ mũndũ ũyũ nĩ mũgeni wakwa-rĩ, tigai gwĩka ũndũ ũyũ wa thoni ũguo.
Muridzi wemba akabuda panze akati kwavari, “Kwete, shamwari dzangu, regai kuita zvakaipa kudai. Sezvo murume uyu ari mueni wangu, regai kuita chinhu ichi chinonyadzisa kudai.
24 Thikĩrĩriai, haha harĩ mũirĩtu wakwa gathirange, na thuriya ya mũgeni ũyũ. Nĩngũmaruta na nja kũrĩ inyuĩ rĩu, na no mũmahũthĩre na mũmeke o ũrĩa mũngĩenda. No mũndũ ũyũ-rĩ, mũtikamwĩke ũndũ wa thoni ta ũcio.”
Tarirai, heyi mhandara mwanasikana wangu uyu, nemurongo wake. Ndichavabudisa kwamuri izvozvi, uye munogona kuvabata mugoita kwavari zvose zvamunoda. Asi kumurume uyu, regai kuita chinhu chinonyadzisa zvakadaro.”
25 No andũ acio matiigana kũmũthikĩrĩria. Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, mũndũ ũcio akĩoya thuriya yake na akĩmĩruta na nja kũrĩ o, nao makĩmĩnyiita na hinya na makĩmĩnyariira ũtukũ wothe, na gwakĩa makĩreka ĩĩthiĩre.
Asi varume ava havana kuda kumuteerera. Saka murume uyu akatora murongo wake akamuendesa kunze kwavari, uye vakamubata chibharo vakamuchinya usiku hwose, uye panguva dzamambakwedza vakamuregedza kuti aende.
26 Na gũgĩthererũka-rĩ, mũndũ-wa-nja ũcio agĩcooka nyũmba kũrĩa mwathi wake aarĩ, akĩgũa thĩ hau mũrango-inĩ, na agĩkoma ho nginya gũgĩkĩa.
Kwaedza, mukadzi akadzokera kumba kwaigara tenzi wake, akawira pasi pamukova wemba uye akavatapo kusvikira kwaedza.
27 Na rĩrĩa mwathi wake ookĩrire rũciinĩ na akĩhingũra mũrango wa nyũmba akiuma nja nĩguo ethiĩre-rĩ, thuriya yake yakomete hau ĩgwĩte mũromo-inĩ wa nyũmba, namo moko mayo maarĩ hingĩro-inĩ.
Tenzi wake akati achimuka mangwanani akazarura mukova wemba akabuda panze kuti afambire mberi norwendo rwake, onei hoyo murongo wake avete akawira pasi pamukova wemba, maoko ake ari pachikumbaridzo.
28 Nake akĩmĩĩra atĩrĩ, “Ũkĩra; reke tũthiĩ.” No ndĩacookirie. Nake mũndũ ũcio agĩcooka akĩmĩoya, akĩmĩigĩrĩra igũrũ rĩa ndigiri yake, makĩinũka.
Iye akati kwaari, “Muka; handei.” Asi pakanga pasina mhinduro. Ipapo murume uya akamuisa pambongoro akasimuka akaenda kumusha.
29 Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa aakinyire mũciĩ-rĩ, akĩoya kahiũ agĩtinangia thuriya yake kĩĩga o kĩĩga icunjĩ ikũmi na igĩrĩ, agĩcitũma ngʼongo ciothe cia Isiraeli,
Akati achisvika kumusha, akatora banga akagura-gura murongo wake, mutezo muzvidimbu gumi nezviviri akazvitumira munzvimbo dzose dzeIsraeri.
30 na mũndũ o wothe ũrĩa wonire ũndũ ũcio akiuga atĩrĩ, “Ũndũ ta ũyũ ndũrĩ wonwo kana ũgĩĩkwo, kuuma mũthenya ũrĩa andũ a Isiraeli moimire bũrũri wa Misiri. Teciriei ũhoro ũcio na mũwĩcũũranie, mũtwĩre ũrĩa tũgwĩka!”
Mumwe nomumwe akazviona akati, “Chinhu chakadai hachina kutongoonekwa kana kuitwa, kubva pazuva rakabuda vaIsraeri muIjipiti. Fungai pamusoro pazvo! Zvicherechedzei! Tiudzei zvokuita!”
