Ndị Ikpe 8
1 Ndị Ifrem jụrụ Gidiọn ajụjụ sị ya, “Gịnị mere i ji meso anyị mmeso dị otu a? Ọ bụ gịnị mere i zighị ozi kpọ anyị mgbe ị gara ibuso ndị Midia agha?” Ha tara ya ụta nke ukwuu.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he kau tangata ʻo ʻIfalemi kiate ia, “Ko e hā ʻae meʻa ni kuo ke fai, naʻe ʻikai te ke ui ʻakimautolu, ʻi hoʻo ʻalu ke tauʻi ʻae kakai Mitiane?” Pea naʻa nau lea mālohi kiate ia.
2 Ma Gidiọn zaghachiri ha sị, “Gịnị ka m rụpụtara e ji atụnyere nke unu. Ọ bụ na ntụtụkọta ihe ubi Ifrem adịghị mma karịa owuwe ihe ubi nke Abieza?
Pea pehē ʻe ia kiate kinautolu, “Ko e hā ia kuo fai ʻeau, ke fakatatau ki he meʻa kuo fai ʻekimoutolu? ʻIkai kuo lelei lahi hake ʻae tufi ʻoe toenga kālepi ʻo ʻIfalemi ʻi he ututaʻu kātoa ʻa ʻApiesa?
3 Chineke nyefere unu Oreb na Zeeb, ndị ndu Midia, nʼaka. Gịnị ka m rụpụtara a ga-eji tụnyere nke unu?” Okwu a mere ka ọnụma ha nʼebe ọ nọ dajụọ.
Kuo tukuange ʻe he ʻOtua ki homou nima ʻae ongo ʻeiki ʻo Mitiane ko Olepi mo Siipi: pea ko e hā ia te u mafai ʻeau, ke fakatatau mo kimoutolu?” Pea hili ʻene lea ko ia kiate kinautolu, naʻe ʻosi leva ʻenau ʻita kiate ia.
4 Nʼoge a, Gidiọn gabigara, gafee osimiri Jọdan, ya na narị ndị agha atọ so ya. Ike gwụrụ ha nke ukwuu ma ha nọgidere na-achụsi ndị iro ha ọsọ ike.
Pea naʻe haʻu ʻa Kitione ki Sioatani, pea ʻalu ki he kauvai ʻe taha, ʻa ia, mo e kau tangata ʻe toko tolungeau naʻe ʻiate ia, naʻe vaivai kae tuli pē.
5 Ọ sịrị ndị ikom Sukọt, “Nyetụnụ ndị agha m achịcha nʼihi na ike gwụrụ ha. Ana m na-achụso Zeba na Zalmuna, ndị eze Midia ọsọ.”
Pea pehē ʻe ia ki he kau tangata ʻo Sukote, “ʻOku ou kole kiate kimoutolu, tuku mai ʻae ngaahi foʻi mā ki he kakai ʻoku muimui ʻiate au, he ʻoku nau vaivai, pea ʻoku ou tuli kia Sipa mo Salimuna, ko e ongo tuʻi ʻo Mitiane.”
6 Ma ndịisi Sukọt sịrị, “Anyị ga-esi aṅaa nye ndị agha gị achịcha? Ijidela Zeba na Zalmuna nʼaka gị?”
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he houʻeiki ʻo Sukote, “He ʻoku ʻi ho nima ʻoʻou ʻae nima ʻo Sipa mo Salimuna koeʻuhi ke mau ʻatu ʻae mā ki hoʻo kau tau?”
7 Mgbe ahụ, Gidiọn zaghachiri, “Nʼihi nke a, mgbe Onyenwe anyị nyefere m Zeba na Zalmuna nʼaka, aga m eji ogwu na ụga na-epu nʼọzara dọkasịa unu ahụ.”
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Kitione, “Ko ia ʻi he tuku ʻe Sihova ki hoku nima ʻa Sipa mo Salimuna, te u toki haha homou kakano ʻaki ʻae ngaahi ʻakau talatala ʻoe toafa mo e talatalaʻāmoa.”
8 O sitere nʼebe ahụ gaa Peniel rịọkwaa ndị obodo ahụ otu arịrịọ ahụ. Ma otu ụdị ọsịsa ahụ ndị Sukọt nyere ka ndị Peniel nyekwara.
Pea naʻe ʻalu hake mei ai ia ki Penieli, ʻo ne lea tatau pe kiate kinautolu: pea naʻe tali ia ʻe he kau tangata ʻo Penieli ʻo hangē ko hono tali ia ʻe he kau tangata ʻa Sukote.
9 Ya mere, ọ gwara ndị ikom Peniel sị, “Mgbe m nwere mmeri lọta, aga m akwatu ụlọ elu a.”
Pea naʻe lea ia ki he kau tangata ʻo Penieli, ʻo pehē, “ʻI heʻeku toe haʻu ʻi he melino, te u holoki hifo ʻae fale māʻolunga ni.”
10 Nʼoge a, Zeba na Zalmuna na puku ndị agha iri na ise fọdụụrụ ha nọ na Kako. Ndị a bụ naanị ndị agha fọdụrụ nʼime usuu ndị agha ndị Midia niile. Nʼihi na ọnụọgụgụ ndị agha e gburu egbu dị narị puku na iri puku abụọ.
Pea naʻe ʻi Kalikoa ʻa Sipa mo Salimuna, mo honau ngaahi tau, ko e kau tangata ʻe tokotaha mano mo e toko nima afe nai, ko hono kātoa ia naʻe toe ʻi he ngaahi tau ʻoe fānau kotoa pē ʻoe potu hahake: he naʻe tō ʻae tokotaha kilu mo e toko ua mano ʻi he kau tangata naʻe unuhi ʻae heletā.
11 Gidiọn rigoro site ụzọ ndị na-achị anụ ụlọ nke dị nʼọwụwa anyanwụ obodo Nọba na Jogbeha, bịakwasị ndị agha ahụ na mberede nʼihi na ha nọ nʼatụghị egwu ihe ọbụla ime ha.
Pe naʻe ʻalu hake ʻa Kitione ʻi he hala ʻokinautolu naʻe nofo ʻi he ngaahi fale fehikitaki ʻi he potu hahake ki Nopa mo Sokipa, ʻo ne teʻia ʻae tau: he naʻe nofo fiemālie pē ʻae tau.
12 Zeba na Zalmuna, eze abụọ ndị Midia, gbapụrụ ọsọ, ma Gidiọn na ndị agha ya chụgidere ha ọsọ, jide ha. Ha gweriri ndị agha ha niile.
Pea ʻi he hola ʻa Sipa mo Salimuna, naʻe tuli ʻe ia ʻakinaua, ʻo ne maʻu ʻae ongo tuʻi ʻo Mitiane, ko Sipa mo Salimuna, ʻo ne veuveuki ʻa e tau kotoa.
13 Emesịa, Gidiọn nwa Joash, sitere nʼokporoụzọ Heres lọta agha ahụ.
Pea naʻe liu mai ʻa Kitione ko e foha ʻo Soasi mei he tau ʻoku teʻeki ai hopo hake ʻae laʻā.
14 Nʼebe ahụ ka Gidiọn nọ jide otu nwokorobịa onye Sukọt. O jụrụ ya ajụjụ, nwokorobịa ahụ depụtakwaara ya aha ndịisi obodo Sukọt. Ha dị iri asaa na asaa, ndị okenye obodo ahụ.
Pea naʻa ne puke ʻae talavou ʻi he kakai ʻo Sukote, ʻo ne fehuʻi ʻiate ia: pea naʻa ne fakahā kiate ia ʻae houʻeiki ʻo Sukote, mo e kau mātuʻa ʻo ia, ʻio, ʻae kau tangata ʻe toko fitungofulu ma toko fitu.
15 Mgbe Gidiọn bịaruru obodo Sukọt, ọ gwara ha okwu sị, “Ngwa leenụ Zeba na Zalmuna ndị unu kparịrị m maka ha, kwuo sị, ‘Ijidela Zeba na Zalmuna nʼaka gị ugbu a nke mere na anyị ga-enye ndị ikom gị ike gwụrụ achịcha?’”
Pea naʻe haʻu ia ki he kau tangata ʻo Sukote, ʻo ne pehē, “Vakai kia Sipa mo Salimuna, ʻaia naʻa mou manuki ai kiate au, ʻo pehē, Ko eni, he ʻoku ʻi ho nima ʻae nima ʻo Sipa mo Salimuna, koeʻuhi ke mau ʻatu ai ha mā ki ho kau tangata ʻoku vaivai?”
16 O jidere ndị okenye obodo ahụ, were ogwu na ụga taa ndị ikom Sukọt ahụhụ ime ka ha mara ihe.
Pea naʻa ne ʻave ʻae kau mātuʻa ʻoe kolo, mo e ngaahi ʻakau talatala ʻoe toafa, mo e talatalaʻāmoa, pea ne ako ʻaki ia ʻae kau tangata ʻoe kolo.
17 Ọ kwaturu ụlọ elu Peniel gbukwaa ndị ikom obodo ahụ niile.
Pea naʻa ne tā ʻo holoki hifo ʻae fale māʻolunga ʻo Penieli, ʻo ne tāmateʻi ʻae kau tangata ʻoe kolo.
18 Mgbe ahụ, ọ jụrụ Zeba na Zalmuna, “Ndị ikom dị aṅaa ka unu gburu na Taboa?” Ha zara sị ya, “Ha nwere ụdịdị ka gị onwe gị, onye ọbụla nwere ụdịdị dịka nwa eze.”
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ia kia Sipa mo Salimuna, “Ko e kau tangata fē ʻakinautolu naʻa mou tāmateʻi ʻi Tepoa? Pea naʻa na pehēange, Hangē ko koe, naʻe pehē pe ʻakinautolu: naʻe ngalingali tuʻi ʻakinautolu taki taha kotoa pē.”
19 Gidiọn zaghachiri sị, “Ndị ahụ bụ ụmụnne m ndị ikom, ndị nke nne m mụrụ. Ugbu a, Onyenwe anyị nʼonwe ya maara na a sị na unu egbughị ha, agaraghị m egbu unu.”
Pea pehē ʻe ia, “Ko hoku ngaahi kāinga ʻakinautolu, ʻio, ko e ngaahi fānau ʻa ʻeku faʻē: ʻoku moʻui ʻa Sihova, ka ne mo fakamoʻui ʻakinautolu, pehē ʻe ʻikai te u tāmateʻi ʻakimoua.”
20 O chigharịrị gwa Jeta, ọkpara ya, sị ya, “Gbuo ha!” Ma Jeta amịpụtaghị mma, nʼihi na ọ bụ naanị nwokorobịa. Ọ tụrụ egwu igbu ha.
Pea pehē ʻe ia kia Sesa ko hono ʻuluaki tupu, “Tuʻu hake, ʻo tāmateʻi ʻakinaua.” Ka naʻe ʻikai unuhi ʻene heletā ʻe he tamasiʻi: he naʻe manavahē ia, koeʻuhi naʻe kei siʻi ia.
21 Zeba na Zalmuna, gwara Gidiọn okwu sị, “Jiri aka gị gbuo anyị. ‘A hụ dimkpa, a hụ ike ya.’” Nʼihi nke a, Gidiọn were aka ya gbuo ha, chịkọrọkwa ihe olu niile ha nyakwasịrị ịnyịnya kamel ha nʼolu.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Sipa mo Salimuna, “Tuʻu ʻa koe, ʻo taaʻi ʻakimaua: he ʻoku hangē ko e tangata ʻoku pehē ʻene mālohi.” Pea naʻe tuʻu ʻa Kitione ʻo ne tāmateʻi ʻa Sipa mo Salimuna; ʻo ne toʻo ʻo ʻave ʻae ngaahi teunga naʻe ʻi he kia ʻo ʻena ongo kāmeli.
22 Mgbe ahụ, ndị Izrel gwara Gidiọn sị ya, “Bịa ka ị bụrụ eze anyị! Gị na ụmụ gị ndị ikom, na ezinaụlọ gị niile, ga-abụ ndị ga-achị, nʼihi na ị gbapụtala anyị site nʼaka usuu ndị agha Midia.”
Pea naʻe pehē ai ʻe he kau tangata ʻo ʻIsileli kia Kitione, “Ke ke pule koe kiate kimautolu, ʻa koe mo ho foha, mo e foha ʻo ho foha: he kuo ke fakamoʻui ʻakimautolu mei he nima ʻo Mitiane.”
23 Ma Gidiọn gwara ha okwu sị, “Mụ onwe m na ụmụ m agaghị abụ eze unu, nʼihi na Onyenwe anyị Chineke bụ eze unu.”
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Kitione kiate kinautolu, “ʻE ʻikai te u pule kiate kimoutolu, pea ʻe ʻikai pule ʻa hoku foha kiate kimoutolu: ko Sihova ko ia ia ʻe pule kiate kimoutolu.”
24 Ọ sịrị, “Enwere m otu arịrịọ m ga-arịọ unu. Onye ọbụla nʼime unu nye m ọlantị site nʼoke unu nwetara site nʼihe nkwata nʼagha.” (Ọ bụ omenaala ndị Ishmel niile iyi ọlantị ọlaedo.)
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Kitione kiate kinautolu, “ʻOku ou fie fai atu ʻeku kole kiate kimoutolu, koeʻuhi ke mou tuku mai kiate au ʻae ngaahi mama kuo mou maʻu ʻi he vete.” (He naʻa nau ʻai ʻae hau koula, he ko e kau ʻIsimeʻeli ʻakinautolu.)
25 Ha jiri obi ụtọ kwenye, gbasaa akwa nʼala, tinyechaa ọlantị ha nʼime ya. Onye ọbụla nʼime ha mere nke a.
Pea naʻe pehēange ʻekinautolu, “Te mau ʻatu fiemālie pe ia.” Pea naʻa nau folahi ʻae kofu pea naʻe sī ki ai taki taha ʻe he tangata ʻae ngaahi hau mei heʻene meʻa.
26 Ịdị arọ nke ọlantị ọlaedo ndị a bụ otu puku na narị shekel asaa, na-agụnyeghị ihe ịchọ mma ndị ọzọ, na ihe olu, na uwe odo odo ndị eze Midia na-eyi, na ihe olu dị nʼolu ịnyịnya kamel ha.
Pea ko hono mamafa ʻoe ngaahi hau koula ʻaia naʻa ne kole, ko e [sikeli ]koula ʻe taha afe mo e fitungeau: ka ʻoku lau kehe ʻae ngaahi teunga, mo e ngaahi kahoa, mo e ngaahi kofu lanumoana naʻe ʻi he ongo tuʻi ʻo Mitiane, pea mo e ngaahi kahoa naʻe ʻi he kia ʻo ʻenau fanga kāmeli.
27 Gidiọn jiri ọlaedo ahụ niile kpụọ efọọd debe ya nʼOfra, nʼobodo nke aka ya. Ma mgbe na-adịghị anya, ụmụ Izrel niile malitere ịgbaso na ife ihe ahụ ofufe. Nʼụzọ dị otu a, ọ ghọọrọ Gidiọn na ezinaụlọ ya ihe ịma nʼọnya.
Pea naʻe ngaohi ʻaki ia ʻe Kitione ʻae ʻefoti pea naʻe tuku ia ki he kolo, ʻaia ko Ofila: pea naʻe ʻalu ki ai ʻa ʻIsileli kotoa pē ʻo fai angahala: pea naʻe hoko ʻae meʻa ko ia ko e tauhele kia Kitione, pea ki hono fale.
28 Otu a ka Midia si ghọọ ndị Izrel meriri emeri. Midia eweliteghị isi ya ọzọ. Nʼihi nke a, Izrel biri nʼudo iri afọ anọ, nʼụbọchị niile Gidiọn dị ndụ.
Naʻe pehē ʻae fakamoʻulaloa ʻo Mitiane ʻi he ʻao ʻoe fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, ko ia naʻe ʻikai tenau toe hiki hake honau ʻulu. Pea naʻe nofo fiemālie pe ʻae fonua ʻi he taʻu ʻe fāngofulu ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho ʻo Kitione.
29 Jerub-Baal, nwa Joash laghachiri nʼụlọ nke aka ya, biri nʼebe ahụ.
Pea naʻe ʻalu ʻa Selupeali ko e foha ʻo Soasi ʻo nofo ʻi hono fale ʻoʻona.
30 Ọ mụtakwara iri ụmụ ndị ikom asaa, nʼihi na ọ lụrụ ọtụtụ ndị inyom.
Pea naʻe ʻia Kitione ʻae foha ʻe toko fitungofulu naʻe tupu ʻiate ia: he naʻe tokolahi hono uaifi.
31 O nwekwara iko nwanyị nʼobodo Shekem, onye mụtaara ya nwa nwoke aha ya bụ Abimelek.
Pea naʻe fānau kiate ia ʻe he kaunanga naʻe ʻi Sikemi ʻae tama, ʻaia naʻa ne ui ko ʻApimeleki.
32 Mgbe ihe ndị a gasịrị, Gidiọn nwa Joash, nwụrụ, mgbe ọ kasịrị nka nke ukwu. E liri ya nʼili nna ya Joash nʼobodo Ofra, nʼala Abieza.
Pea naʻe pekia ʻa Kitione ko e foha ʻo Soasi kuo aʻu ʻa hono taʻu, pea naʻe tanu ia ʻi he faʻitoka ʻo ʻene tamai ko Soasi, ʻi Ofila ʻoe kakai ʻApiesa.
33 Ọ dịghị anya ka Gidiọn nwụsịrị, ụmụ Izrel laghachiri azụ bido ife chi Baal. Ha guzobere Baal-Berit ka ọ bụrụ chi ha.
Pea kuo pekia leva ʻa Kitione naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, naʻe toe tafoki ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, ʻonau muimui holi kovi kia Peali, ʻonau ʻotua ʻaki ʻa Peali-Piliti.
34 Ma ụmụ Izrel echetaghị Onyenwe anyị Chineke ha, onye napụtara ha site nʼaka ndị iro ha niile gbara ha gburugburu.
Pea naʻe ʻikai manatuʻi ʻe he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli kia Sihova ko honau ʻOtua, ʻaia naʻa ne fakamoʻui ʻakinautolu mei he nima ʻo honau ngaahi fili ʻi he potu kotoa pē.
35 Ha ekwesighịkwa ntụkwasị obi nye ezinaụlọ Jerub-Baal (ya bụ Gidiọn) dịka ezi ihe niile o mere ha si dị.
Pea naʻe ʻikai tenau fakahā ʻae ʻofa ki he fale ʻo Selupeali, ʻaia ko Kitione, ʻo hangē ko e ngāue lelei ʻaia naʻe fakahā ʻe ia ki ʻIsileli.
