Ngemva kwensuku zika-Abhimelekhi kwavela umuntu wako-Isakhari, uThola indodana kaPhuwa, indodana kaDodo ukuba ahlenge u-Israyeli. Wayehlala eShamiri, elizweni lezintaba elako-Efrayimi.

2 Hagi agra 23'a kafufi Israeli vahe'mofo kva mani'neno kezamia antahino refko huzamante'ne. Ana huteno frige'za Samir kumate asente'naze.

Wakhokhela u-Israyeli iminyaka engamatshumi amabili lantathu; wasesifa, wangcwatshwa eShamiri.

3 Hagi Tola'ma fritegeno'a Giliatiti ne' Jairi'a 22'a kafufi Israeli vahe kva mani'neno, ke'zamia antahino refko huzmante'ne.

Walandelwa nguJayiri owaseGiliyadi, owakhokhela u-Israyeli iminyaka engamatshumi amabili lambili.

Wayelamadodana angamatshumi amathathu, ayegada obabhemi abangamatshumi amathathu. Ayephethe amadolobho angamatshumi amathathu eGiliyadi, lalamhlanje abizwa ngokuthi Havothi Jayiri.

5 Hagi Jairi'ma frige'za Kamoni kumate asente'naze.

Ekufeni kwakhe uJayiri wangcwatshwa eKhamoni.

6 Hagi Israeli vahe'mo'za mago'ane Ra Anumzamofo avurera kefo zamavuzmava hu'za, Baline Astaroti havi anumzante'ene, Siria vahe havi anumzante'ene, Saidoni vahe havi anumzante'ene, Moapu vahe havi anumzante'ene, Amoni vahe havi anumzante'ene, Filistia vahe havi anumzante monora hunte'naze. Ana nehu'za Ra Anumzamofona zamefi hunemi'za, eri'zana eri onte'naze.

Abako-Israyeli benza okubi futhi emehlweni kaThixo. Bakhonza oBhali labo-Ashithorethi, labonkulunkulu base-Aramu, labonkulunkulu baseSidoni, labonkulunkulu baseMowabi, labonkulunkulu bama-Amoni, kanye labonkulunkulu bamaFilistiya. Ngenxa yokuthi abako-Israyeli bamdela uThixo kabaze babe besamkhonza,

7 Ana'ma hazageno'a Ra Anumzamo'a tusi rimpa ahenezmanteno, Amoni vahe'mokizmi zamazampine, Filistia vahe'mokizmi zamazampi zamavarente'ne.

wabathukuthelela kakhulu. Wabanikela ezandleni zamaFilistiya lama-Amoni,

8 Hagi Giliati kazigama Amori vahe mopafi Jodanima nemaniza Israeli vahera, 18ni'a kafufi tusi'a knaza zami'za zamazeri havizantfa hu'naze.

okwathi ngalowomnyaka abachitha abanqoba. Ancindizela abako-Israyeli bonke okweminyaka elitshumi lasificaminwembili ngasempumalanga kweJodani eGiliyadi, ilizwe lama-Amori.

9 Hagi Amoni vahe'mo'za Jodani tina takahe'za Juda naga'ma, Benzameni naga'ma Efraemi nagara hara ome huzamantege'za Israeli vahe'mo'za tusi antahintahi nehu'za rama'a knazampi mani'naze.

Ama-Amoni futhi achapha iJodani ukuba alwe loJuda, loBhenjamini kanye lendlu ka-Efrayimi; u-Israyeli wayephakathi kohlupho olukhulu.

10 Ana'ma hige'za Israeli vahe'mo'za amanage hu'za Ra Anumzamofontega krafagea hu'naze. Tagra kumi hu'none, na'ankure Anumzamoka tagra tamefi hunegamita, Bali havi anumzamofo eri'zana erinezmanteta monora hunte'none.

Lapho-ke abako-Israyeli bakhala kuThixo bathi, “Senze isono kuwe, sadela uNkulunkulu wethu sakhonza oBhali.”

11 Hagi anagema hazageno'a Ra Anumzamo'a amanage huno kenona hu'ne, Isipi vahe'ene, Amori vahe'ene, Amoni vahe'ene Filistia vahe zamazampintira Nagra tamagura ovazi'nofi?

UThixo waphendula wathi, “Lapho amaGibhithe, lama-Amori, lama-Amoni, lamaFilistiya,

12 Hagi anahukna huna Saidoni vahe'mo'zane Ameleki vahe'mo'zane Maoni vahe'mo'zama ha'ma huramante'za tamazeri havizama nehazagetama krafama hazage'na, Nagra tamaza hu'na tamaguravazi'noe.

lamaSidoni, lama-Amaleki kanye lamaMawoni alincindezela lakhulekela usizo kimi, kangilihlenganga ezandleni zawo na?

13 Hianagi tamagra natreta tamefi hunenamita, ru anumzamofo eri'za erinenteta monora hunte'naze. E'ina hu'negu menina tamagura ovazigahue.

Kodwa selingidelile lakhonza abanye onkulunkulu, ngakho angisayikulisindisa.

14 Hagi tamagra'ama anumzantie hutama huhamprinaza anumzante vuta krafa ome hinkeno, knazantimifintira tamaza huno tamaguravazino.

Hambani liyekhala kubonkulunkulu elibathembileyo. Kabalisindise nxa seliphakathi kokuhlupheka!”

15 Hianagi Israeli vahe'mo'za amanage hu'za Ra Anumzamofona asami'naze, tagra kumi hu'nonanki nazano hurante'naku'ma hananazana amne hurantegahane. Hianagi muse hugantonanki, ha' vahetimofo zamazampintira menina tagu'vazinka taza huo.

Kodwa abako-Israyeli bathi kuThixo, “Senze isono. Yenza kithi lokho okubona kulungile kuwe, kodwa ake usihlenge khathesi nje.”

16 Anage nehu'za ru anumzantminte'ma eri'zama erinente'za mono'ma nehazazana atre'za Ra Anumzamofonte monora hunte'naze. Hagi ana'ma hazageno'a, Ra Anumzamo'a Israeli vahe'mo'zama knama eri'naza zankura tusi asunku hu'ne.

Ngakho basusa onkulunkulu bezizweni phakathi kwabo bakhonza uThixo. Wayengeke alumele futhi usizi luka-Israyeli.

17 Ana'ma hutegeno'a Amoni vahe'mo'za seli nona Giliati eme kizageno Israeli vahe'mo'za Mispa kumate emeri tru hu'za seli nona ki'naze.

Kwathi ama-Amoni esebizelwe empini njalo emise eGiliyadi, abako-Israyeli abuthana amisa eMizipha.

18 Hagi Giliati kumate kva vahe'mo'za zamagra zamagra amanage hu'za hugantugama hu'naze, iza'o ese'ma ha'ma agafama huno Amoni vahe'ma ha'ma huzamantesia ne'mo, Giliati vahe'mofo kva manigahie.

Abakhokheli babantu baseGiliyadi bathi omunye komunye, “Lowo ozaqalisa ukuhlasela ama-Amoni uzakuba yinduna yabo bonke abahlala eGiliyadi.”
