Jasi Vahere 21
1 Hagi Israeli vahe'mo'za Mizpa kumate omeri atru hu'za amanage hu'za huvempa hu'naze, Magore huno magotimo'a mofa'a atresigeno Benzameni nagatera uomaregosie.
Now the men of Israel had taken an oath in Mizpah, saying, Not one of us will give his daughter as a wife to Benjamin.
2 Hagi ana'ma hute'za Israeli vahe'mo'za Beteli kumate Ra Anumzamofo avuga vu'za tusi zavi krafa nehazageno vuno kinaga omesege'za,
And the people came to Beth-el, waiting there till evening before God, and gave themselves up to bitter weeping.
3 zamagra amanage hu'naze, Ra Anumzana Israeli vahe Anumzamoka nahigeno Israeli vahepintira mago naga'mo'za fananea hu'za nehaze?
And they said, O Lord, the God of Israel, why has this fate come on Israel, that today one tribe has been cut off from Israel?
4 Hagi mase'za anante knarera nanterame oti'za kresramna vu ita trohu'za, anante kresramnama vu ofa nehu'za, zamarimpa fru ofanena hu'naze.
Then on the day after, the people got up early and made an altar there, offering burned offerings and peace-offerings.
5 Hagi anante amanage hu'naze, Israeli vahepintira ina naga'mo Ra Anumzamofo avugama atruma nehumpina atrua osu'naze? Na'ankure zamagra kora huvempa hu'za amanage hu'naze, Iza'o Ra Anumzamofonte'ma Mispama omesimofona ahe friho.
And the children of Israel said, Who is there among all the tribes of Israel, who did not come up to the Lord at the meeting of all Israel? For they had taken a great oath that whoever did not come up to Mizpah to the Lord was to be put to death.
6 Hagi Israeli vahe'mo'za nezamafunkura Benzameni nagara zamasunku hunezamante'za amanage hu'naze, menina Israeli vahepintira mago nagamo'a fanane hie.
And the children of Israel were moved with pity for Benjamin their brother, saying, Today one tribe has been cut off from Israel.
7 Hagi tagra Ra Anumzamofonte huvempa huta mofa'netia ozamigosune huta hunonanki, inankna huta a'ne zamigura hakegahune?
What are we to do about wives for those who are still living? For we have taken an oath by the Lord that we will not give them our daughters for wives.
8 Hagi amanage hu'naze, Israeli vahepintira ina naga'mo'za Ra Anumzamofo avuga Mispa kumatera ome'naze? Hagi keho Jabes-Gileatitira mago vahera Ra Anumzamofo avuga ome'ne.
And they said, Which one of the tribes of Israel did not come up to Mizpah to the Lord? And it was seen that no one had come from Jabesh-gilead to the meeting.
9 Na'ankure Israeli vahe'mo'zama vahe'ma hamprizafina Jabes-Giliati vahera ana zupa omani'naze.
For when the people were numbered, not one man of the people of Jabesh-gilead was present.
10 Hagi e'ina hu'nazagu koro osu'za hanaveti'za ha'ma nehaza vahera, Israeli vahe'mo'za 12tauseni'a hunezamante'za amanage hu'naze, vuta Jabes-Giliati kumate vahera maka a' mofavre'zamine zamahe hana hiho.
So they (the meeting) sent twelve thousand of the best fighting-men, and gave them orders, saying, Go and put the people of Jabesh-gilead to the sword without mercy, with their women and their little ones.
11 Hagi tamagra amanahu hugahaze, maka vene'nene, vene'nenema mase'nesia a'nenena zamahehna hiho.
And this is what you are to do: every male, and every woman who has had sex relations with a man, you are to put to the curse, but you are to keep safe the virgins. And they did so.
12 Hagi Jabes-Gileati vahepintira 400'a venema omase mofa'neramina hake'za zamavare'za seli noma ki'za mani'naza kumate Kenani mopafi Sailo e'naze.
Now there were among the people of Jabesh-gilead four hundred young virgins who had never had sex relations with a man; these they took to their tents in Shiloh in the land of Canaan.
13 Hagi ana'ma hazage'za maka Israeli vahe'mo'za Benzameni naga'ma Rimoni havekampima fraki'zama mani'naza nagatega kea atre'za amanage hu'naze, Menina tamagri'enena hara osuta fru huta manigahune hu'za hu'naze.
And all the meeting sent to the men of Benjamin who were in the rock of Rimmon, offering them peace.
14 Hagi anagema hazage'za Benzameni naga'mo'za kuma'zmirega ete vazage'za Jabes-Giliatiti'ma zmavre'naza a'nea zami'naze. Hianagi ana maka vene'nemo'za ana a'nea erizamentera osu'nazanki mago'amo'a amne mani'ne.
Then Benjamin came back; and they gave them the women whom they had kept from death among the women of Jabesh-gilead: but still there were not enough for them.
15 Hagi Benzameni nagakura Israeli vahe'mo'za zamasunku hu'naze. Na'ankure Israeli vahepina Ra Anumzamo'a zamatrege'za fanane hazageno kankamu fore hu'ne.
And the people were moved with pity for Benjamin, because the Lord had let his wrath loose on the tribes of Israel.
16 Hagi anante Israeli kva vahe'mo'za amanage hu'naze, Benzameni nagapintira ko a'nezmia zamahe hana hu'nonanki, a'ma e'ori'naza vene'neramina igati a'neramina haketa avrezamigahune?
Then the responsible men of the meeting said, What are we to do about wives for the rest of them, seeing that the women of Benjamin are dead?
17 Hagi amanage hu'naze, Zamahe hanama hunke'zama osi'ama maniza Benjamen naga'mo'za mofavre ante'nageno Israeli vahepintira zamagia fanane osanie.
And they said, How is the rest of Benjamin to be given offspring so that one tribe of Israel may not be put out of existence,
18 Hianagi mofa'netia zaminunke'za ara e'origosaze. Na'ankure ko Israeli vahe'mo'za huvempa hu'za Benzameni nagara mofatia ozamigosune hu'naze. Hagi iza'oma mofa'ama amisimofona Anumzamo'a kazusi huntegahie hu'za nehu'za,
Seeing that we may not give them our daughters as wives? For the children of Israel had taken an oath, saying, Cursed is he who gives a wife to Benjamin.
19 amanage hu'naze, Keho maka kafumofona Sailo kumatera Ra Anumzamofoma musema hunteno ne'zama kreno nekna etere nehie. Hagi ana kumara Beteli kuma'mofo noti kaziga megeno, Betelitima marerino Sekemuma vu'nea kamofona zage hanati kaziga megeno, Lebona kuma'mofona sauti kaziga me'ne.
And they said, See, every year there is a feast of the Lord in Shiloh, which is to the north of Beth-el, on the east side of the highway which goes up from Beth-el to Shechem, and on the south of Lebonah.
20 Hagi anage hu'za Benzameni naga'ma a'ma e'ori'naza nagakura huzmante'naze, Vuta waini hozafi kafona ome anteta,
And they said to the men of Benjamin, Go into the vine-gardens, waiting there secretly,
21 mani'neta negenkeno Sailo kumateti'ma avoma renaku'ma atirami'za e'naza mofa'neramina fraki'nesafintira ame huta atiramita zamavazu huta freta kumatmirega eta ara emeri zamanteho.
And watching; and if the daughters of Shiloh come out to take part in the dances, then come from the vine-gardens and take a wife for every one of you from among the daughters of Shiloh, and go back to the land of Benjamin.
22 Hagi anama hanageno'ma zamafahe'zane zamaserahe'zanema tagrite'ma e'za fragema hanageta, amanage huta zamasamigahune. Muse huramantonanki tamasunku hunezamanteta zamatrenke'za ara zamavareho. Na'ankure Jabes-Giliati vahe'ma zamaheta a'nema avre zamunana erizamentera huvaga ore'naze. Hianagi ana mofa'nea tamagra'a ozami'nazankita huvempama hu'naza zantera knazana e'origahaze.
And when their fathers or their brothers come and make trouble, you are to say to them, Give them to us as an act of grace; for we did not take them as wives for ourselves in war; and if you yourselves had given them to us you would have been responsible for the broken oath.
23 Anage hazage'za Benjamen naga'mo'za anama zamasamizaza hu'za avoma renakuma Sailo kumapinti'ma atirami'za aza mofa'nea zamavare'za fre'za erisantima hare'naza mopazmirega vu'za ara omeri zamante'za havizama hu'nea kumazmia omeri so'e hutere hu'za ki'za mani'naze.
So the men of Benjamin did this, and got wives for themselves for every one of their number, taking them away by force from the dance; then they went back to their heritage, building up their towns and living in them.
24 Hagi ana knazupa Israeli vahe'mo'za ana kumara atre'za erisantima hare'naza mopazmirega, naga nofi zamirega vu'za e'za hu'naze.
Then the children of Israel went away from there, every man to his tribe and his family, every man went back to his heritage.
25 Hagi ana knafina Israeli vahe'mokizmia kinia omani'neanki'za, mago'mago'mo'a kegeno'ma avure'ma knare'ma hiazana hutere hu'ne.
In those days there was no king in Israel: every man did what seemed right to him.
