< Jasi Vahere 4 >

1 Hagi Israeli vahe'mo'za Ehuti'ma fritege'za Ra Anumzamofo avurera mago'ane ete kefo avu'ava zana hu'naze.
Abako-Israyeli baphinda benza okubi phambi kukaThixo, emva kokuba u-Ehudi esefile.
2 Anama hazageno'a, Ra Anumzamo'a Hazori kuma kegava hu'nea Kenani kini ne' Jabini azampi Israeli vahera zamavarente'ne. Hagi ana kini ne'mofo sondia vahete kegavama hu'nea nera Haroset-Hagoimie nehaza kumate nemania nekino agi'a Sisera'e.
Ngakho uThixo wabanikela ezandleni zikaJabhini, inkosi yaseKhenani, owayebusa eHazori. Umlawuli webutho lakhe wayenguSisera, owayehlala eHaroshethi-Hagoyimi.
3 Hagi Sisera'a 900'a ainire karisirami ante'neankino Israeli vahera 20'a kafufina arohura zamareno zamazeri haviza hige'za, zamaza hinogura Ra Anumzamofontega krafa hu'naze.
Ngoba wayelezinqola zempi ezensimbi ezingamakhulu ayisificamunwemunye munye njalo encindezele abako-Israyeli kabuhlungu okweminyaka engamatshumi amabili, bacela usizo kuThixo.
4 Hagi ana knafina kasnampa ara Debora'a Lapidoti nenarokino, Israeli vahe'mo'zama keagare'ma azageno'a keagazmia refko huno antahi'ne.
Ngalesosikhathi u-Israyeli wayekhokhelwa nguDibhora umphrofethikazi, umkaLaphidothi.
5 Hagi Debora'a Rama kuma'ene Beteli kuma'ene amu'nompi Efraemi agona mopafi, tofegna zafa agafarere nehazare Debora mani'nege'za, Israeli vahe'mo'za knazazimia eri'za azageno keagazmia refko huno antahi'ne.
Wayethonisela amacala ngaphansi kwesihlahla seLala likaDibhora phakathi kweRama leBhetheli elizweni lezintaba lako-Efrayimi, njalo abantu bako-Israyeli baya kuye ukuba kwenziwe izinqumo ngemibono yabo.
6 Hagi mago zupa Debora'a Kedes-Naftali kumate ne' Abinoamu nemofo Barakintega kea atrentegeno vigeno, anante'ma egeno'a amanage huno asami'ne, Israeli vahe'mofo Ra Anumzamo'a kagrikura amanage hu'ne, Vunka Naftali nagapinti'ene Zebuluni nagapintira 10tauseni'a venene zamavarenka Tabori agonare omeri atru hiho huno hu'ne.
Wabiza uBharakhi indodana ka-Abhinowami waseKhedeshi koNafithali wathi kuye, “UThixo, uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli, uyakulaya uthi: ‘Suka, uhambe labantu bakoNafithali labakoZebhuluni abazinkulungwane ezilitshumi ubakhokhelele eNtabeni iThabhori.
7 Ana huge'na kini ne' Jabini sondia vahete'ma vugotama hu'nea kva ne'ene, aini karisiramine, ha' vahe'taminena zamavare'na Kisoni tinte e'na kazampi eme antegahue.
Ngizahugela uSisera, umlawuli webutho likaJabhini, lezinqola zakhe zempi kanye lamabutho emfuleni uKhishoni ngimnikele ezandleni zakho.’”
8 Anagema higeno'a Baraki'a amanage huno Deborankura hu'ne, Kagrama nagri'enema vanankena vugahue. Hianagi kagra nagri'enema ovnanana, nagra ovugahue.
UBharakhi wathi kuye, “Nxa uhamba lami, ngizahamba; kodwa nxa ungahambi lami, kangiyikuhamba.”
9 Higeno Debora'a amanage huno hu'ne, Tamage nagra kagrane vugahue. Hu'neanagi amama vanana kamo'a, kagra ra kagia e'origosane. Na'ankure Ra Anumzamo'a Siserana mago a'mofo azampi avrentegahie. Anage nehuno Debora'a Barakina avaririno Kadesi kumatera vu'ne.
UDibhora wathi, “Kulungile, ngizahamba lawe. Kodwa ngenxa yendlela oqhuba ngayo lokhu udumo kaluyikuba ngolwakho, ngoba uThixo uzanikela uSisera kowesifazane.” Ngakho uDibhora wahamba loBharakhi eKhedeshi
10 Hagi Barakia Zebuluni naga'ene Naftali nagara ke hige'za Kedesi vu'naze. Hagi 10tauseni'a sondia vahe'mo'za mareriza vazageno Debora'a zamagrane vu'ne.
lapho abizela khona uZebhuluni loNafithali. Abantu abazinkulungwane ezilitshumi bamlandela. UDibhora laye wahamba labo.
11 Hagi ana knafina kin nagapinti ne' Heberi'a mago seli nona Kadesi kuma tavaonte oki zafa me'nere ki'ne. Korapara Kenasi kumateti, Mosese nenemo Hobabu nagapinti ne'kino agehemokizmia zamatreno vu'nea ne'mo ki'ne.
Ngalesosikhathi uHebheri umKheni wayetshiye amanye amaKheni, izizukulwane zikaHobhabhi, uyisezala kaMosi, wamisa ithente lakhe phansi kwesihlahla somʼOkhi eZananimi eduze leKhedeshi.
12 Hagi Abinoamu nemofo Baraki'ma Tabori agonare'ma marerie kema Siserama asamizageno nentahino,
Kwathi uSisera sebemtshelile ukuthi uBharakhi indodana ka-Abhinowami wayeseye eNtabeni iThabhori,
13 Sisera'a 900'a ainire karisi ke hige'za eri'za neazageno, maka sondia vahetamina ke hutru hutege'za, Haroset-Hagoimitira Kisoni tinte vu'naze.
uSisera waqoqela ndawonye izinqola zakhe zempi ezensimbi ezingamakhulu ayisificamunwemunye munye lawo wonke amadoda ayelaye, kusukela eHaroshethi-Hagoyimi kusiya emfuleni uKhishoni.
14 Anante Debora'a Barakinkura amanage hu'ne, Otio! Na'ankure menina ama knarera Ra Anumzamo'a vugota huganteno, Siserana kagri kazampi avrente'ne. Anage higeno Baraki'a 10tauseni'a sondia vahera zamavareno, Tabori agonamofo asoparega urami'naze.
UDibhora wasesithi kuBharakhi, “Hamba! Lolu yilo usuku uThixo anikele ngalo uSisera ezandleni zakho. Kanti uThixo kahambanga phambi kwakho na?” Ngakho uBharakhi wehlela eNtabeni iThabhori elandelwa ngabantu abazinkulungwane ezilitshumi.
15 Hagi Barakima ha'ma eri agafama higeno'a, Ra Anumzamo'a Siserane karisima eri'za vanoma nehaza maka sondia vahe'araminena antahintahi zimia zamazeri savari nehuno, zamazeri koro higeno Sisera'a karisi'afintira mopafi takaureno koro fre'ne.
UBharakhi wathi esesondela uThixo wamhlasela uSisera lezinqola zakhe zonke zempi kanye lebutho ngenkemba, njalo uSisera watshiya izinqola zakhe zempi wabaleka ngezinyawo.
16 Ana higeno Baraki'a karisifi vanoma nehu'za ha'ma nehaza vahe'tmina zamavaririno Haroset-Hagoimi vuno magore huno ozmatreno, ome zamahe hana hu'ne.
Kodwa uBharakhi waxotshana lezinqola zempi lebutho waze wafika eHaroshethi-Hagoyimi. Wonke amabutho kaSisera abulawa ngenkemba, akukho muntu owasilayo.
17 Hianagi Sisera'a mopafi freno vuno Kenasi ne' Heberi nenaro, Jaeli seli nontega vu'ne. Na'ankure Hazori kini ne' Jabinine Kenasi ne' Heberi kizani amu'nompina hafra osu'na'e.
Kodwa uSisera wabaleka ngezinyawo waze wayafika ethenteni likaJayeli, umkaHebheri umKheni, ngoba kwakulobudlelwano obuhle phakathi kukaJabhini inkosi yaseHazori lomndeni kaHebheri umKheni.
18 Hagi Jaeli'a seli noma'afinti'ma atiramino Siserama eme negeno'a amanage hu'ne, korora osunka seli noni'afi emarerinka emanio. Anage higeno Jaeli seli nompi Sisera'a umarerino umasegeno, franke erino kofinte'ne.
UJayeli waphuma wahlangabeza uSisera wasesithi kuye, “Woza nkosi yami, ngena phakathi sibili. Ungesabi.” Ngakho uSisera wangena ethenteni likaJayeli, wasemembesa ngengubo.
19 Anama nehigeno'a Sisera'a amanage hu'ne, nanankemo'a hagage hianki osi'a tina afinamige'na na'neno, higeno zagagafa akru'areti tro hu'nea tintafempinti mememofo amirina tagi amigeno netegeno, ete frankera eri kofintegeno mase'ne.
Wasesithi, “Ngomile. Ake unginathise.” Wavula umxhaka wesikhumba sochago, wamnathisa, wasemembesa.
20 Nemaseno amanage hu'ne, Seli nomofo kafante oti'nenka mago'a vahe'mo'ma eno'ma eme kantahigeno, mago'a vahera amafina mani'neoma hanigenka, i'o amafina mago'a vahera omani'ne hunka huo.
USisera wasesithi, “Mana emnyango wethente. Kungaba lomuntu ofika akubuze athi, ‘Kulomuntu lapha na?’ wena kumele uthi ‘Hatshi.’”
21 Hianagi Sisera'a asafe'atagu mase himre'negeno, Jaeli'a hamane seli no avazuhumpi huno negia azota eriteno, akoheno vuno Siserana ana frankepi taponeno asenia runagino aheno mopafi ahenarentegeno fri'ne.
Kodwa uJayeli, umkaHebheri, wathatha isikhonkwane sethente lesando, wamnyenyela ephakathi kobuthongo obukhulu, ngoba wayediniwe. Wabethela isikhonkwane enhlafunweni sangena saze sayafika emhlabathini, wafa.
22 Anama nehigeno'a Baraki'a Siserana avaririno ne-egeno'a Jaeli'a viazamo amanage ome hu'ne, ege'na avaririnkama neana nera ome kaveri ha'neno, higeno Baraki'a amage vuno ome keana seli no avazuhumpi huno arenentea azotareti asenia renagino ahentenegeno ome ke'ne.
UBharakhi wafika exotshana loSisera, uJayeli waphuma wayamhlangabeza. Wathi, “Woza, ngizakutshengisa umuntu omdingayo.” Ngakho wangena laye khonapho, uSisera wayelele isikhonkwane sethente singene satshona enhlafunweni yakhe esefile.
23 E'i ana zupage Israeli vahe zamavufi Anumzamo'a Kenani kini ne' Jabinina hara hu agatere'ne.
Ngalolosuku uNkulunkulu wamnqoba uJabhini, inkosi yamaKhenani, phambi kwabako-Israyeli.
24 Hagi ana hige'za Israeli vahe'mo'za tusiza hu'za hankaveti'za Kenani kini ne'mofo sondia vahetamina hara huzmante'za zamazeri haviza hu'naze.
Amandla abako-Israyeli okumelana loJabhini inkosi yamaKhenani akhula, aze amchitha.
