1 Omugabo ne guweebwa ekika kya Manase kubanga ye yali omubereberye owa Yusufu. Makiri omubereberye wa Manase era kitaawe wa Gireyaadi yaweebwa Gireyaadi ne Basani, era yali mulwanyi muzira.
Uyu ndiwo mugove worudzi rwaManase sedangwe raJosefa, ndiko kuti mugove waMakiri dangwe raManase. Makiri ndiye akanga ari tateguru wavaGireadhi, uye akanga apiwa Gireadhi neBhashani nokuti vaMakiri vakanga vari varwi vakuru.
2 Era emigabo ne giweeba abaana ba Manase abalala nga bwe baali bazaalibwa mu buli maka. Omugabo gw’abaana ba Abiyezeeri, n’ogw’abaana ba Kereki n’abaana ba Asuliyeri n’ogw’abaana ba Sekemu, n’ogw’abaana ba Keferi, n’ogw’abaana ba Semida be baana bonna aboobulenzi aba Manase omwana wa Yusufu ng’amaka mwe baazaalibwa bwe gaali.
Saka mugove uyu wakanga uri wavanhu vakasara vaManase dzimba dzaAbhiezeri, Hereki, Asirieri, Shekemu, Hefa naShemidha. Izvi ndizvo zvimwe zvizvarwa zvechirume zvaManase mwanakomana waJosefa nedzimba dzavo.
3 Naye Zerofekadi mutabani wa Keferi mutabani wa Gireyaadi mutabani wa Manase teyazaala baana balenzi wabula bawala bokka era baali bayitibwa Maala ne Noowa, ne Kogula, ne Mirika ne Tiruza.
Zvino Zerofehadhi mwanakomana waHeferi, mwanakomana waGireadhi, mwanakomana waMakiri, mwanakomana waManase, akanga asina vanakomana asi vanasikana chete. Mazita avo aiti Mara, Noa, Hogira, Mirika, naTiriza.
4 Bano baagenda eri Eriyazaali kabona ne Yoswa omwana wa Nuuni n’abakulu ne babagamba nti, “Mukama yalagira Musa okutuwa omugabo nga baganda baffe.” Yoswa kyeyava abawa ettaka nga Mukama bwe yalagira. Yabawa omugabo mu baganda bakitaabwe.
Ivo vakaenda kuna Ereazari muprista nokuna Joshua mwanakomana waNuni, nokuvatungamiri vakandoti, “Jehovha akarayira Mozisi kuti atipe nhaka pakati pehama dzedu.” Naizvozvo Joshua akavapa nhaka pamwe chete navanunʼuna vababa vavo, sezvakanga zvarayirwa naJehovha.
5 Bw’atyo Manase n’afuna ebitundu kkumi ng’oggyeko ensi ya Gireyaadi ne Basani ebiri emitala wa Yoludaani,
Mugove waManase waisanganisira matunhu gumi tisingaverengi Gireadhi neBhashani dzaiva kumabvazuva kweJorodhani,
6 kubanga abaana ba Manase abawala baafuna omugabo ng’abaana be abalenzi. Ensi ya Gireyaadi yaweebwa abaana ba Manase abaali basigaddewo ne bagitwala.
nokuti vanasikana vorudzi rwaManase vakapiwa nhaka pakati pavanakomana. Nyika yeGireadhi yakanga iri yezvimwe zvizvarwa zvose zvaManase.
7 N’ensalo ya Manase yava ku Aseri n’etuuka ku Mikumesasi ebuvanjuba bwa Sekemu, n’eyita ku bukiikaddyo n’ekka n’etwaliramu abantu abaali mu Entappua.
Nyika yaManase yaitangira kuAsheri ichindosvika kuMikimetati kumabvazuva kweShekemu. Muganhu wainanga nechezasi uchibva ikoko uye waisanganisira vanhu vakanga vagere muEni Tapua.
8 Ensi ya Tappua Manase n’agitwala wabula Tappua ekibuga ekyali ku nsalo ya Manase abaana ba Efulayimu be baakigabana.
(Nyika yeTapua yakanga iri yaManase asi guta reTapua pacharo raiva pamuganhu waManase, rakanga riri ravaEfuremu.)
9 Ensalo n’ekka n’etuuka ku kagga Kana ku luuyi mu bukiikakkono obw’omugga. Bino bye bibuga bya Efulayimu ebiri mu bibuga bya Manase, naye ensalo ya Manase yali mu bukiikakkono obwa kagga n’ekoma ku nnyanja.
Zvino muganhu waipfuurira zasi kuRwizi rweKana. Kwakanga kuna maguta aiva aEfuremu akanga ari pakati pamaguta aManase, asi muganhu waManase wakanga uri nechokumusoro kworwizi uchindogumira pagungwa.
10 Efulayimu n’atwala oluuyi olw’omu bukiikaddyo ne Manase n’atwala oluuyi olw’omu bukiikakkono n’ensalo ye n’ekoma ku nnyanja mu bukiikakkono n’etuuka ku Aseri ate ebuvanjuba n’etuuka ku Isakaali.
Nechezasi nyika iyi yakanga iri yaEfuremu uye kurutivi rwokumusoro yakanga iri yaManase. Nyika yaManase yaisvika kugungwa uye yaiganhurana naAsheri nechokumusoro uye naIsakari kumabvazuva.
11 Mu nsi ya Isakaali n’eya Aseri, Manase n’atwala Besuseani n’ebibuga byakyo ne Ibuleamu n’ebibuga byakyo n’abaali mu Endoli n’ebibuga byakyo n’abaali mu Doli n’abaali mu Taanaki n’ebibuga byakyo, n’abaali mu Megiddo n’ebibuga byakyo z’ensozi essatu.
Mukati meIsakari neAsheri, Manase akanga ainewo Bheti Shani, Ibhireami navanhu veDhori, Enidhori, Tanaki neMegidho, pamwe chete nemisha yakapoteredza (yechitatu pakuverengwa iNafoti).
12 Naye abaana ba Manase tebasobola kugobamu Bakanani kubanga baali bamaliridde okusigala mu nsi eyo.
Asi vana vaManase havana kugona kugara mumaguta aya, nokuti vaKenani vakashinga kugara munyika iyoyo.
13 Naye abaana ba Isirayiri bwe beeyongera amaanyi ne bafuula Abakanani abaddu baabwe ab’okubakozesanga emirimu, ne batabeegoberako ddala.
Kunyange zvakadaro hazvo, vaIsraeri vakati vava nesimba, vakaisa vaKenani pasi pavo ndokuvashandisa chibharo, asi havana kuvadzinga zvachose.
14 Abaana ba Yusufu ne boogera ne Yoswa nti, “Lwaki ffe otuwadde omugabo gumu n’ekitundu kimu ate nga tuli kika kinene? Mukama atuwadde nnyo omukisa.”
Vanhu vaJosefa vakati kuna Joshua, “Makatipireiko mugove mumwe chete nechikamu chimwe chete kuti ive nhaka yedu? Tiri vanhu vazhinji uye Jehovha akatiropafadza zvikuru.”
15 Yoswa n’abagamba nti, “Obanga muli kika kinene mugende mu nsi y’Abaperezi n’ey’Abalefa mwesaayire ekibira, ensi ey’ensozi eya Efulayimu nga bwe tebamala.”
Joshua akapindura achiti, “Kana muri vanhu vazhinji, uye kana nyika yezvikomo yaEfuremu iri diki chaizvo kwamuri, endai kudondo munozvitemera nzvimbo ikoko kunyika yavaPerizi neyavaRefaiti.”
16 Abaana ba Yusufu ne bagamba nti, “Ensi ey’ensozi tetumala; ate nga Abakanani bonna abali mu nsi ey’ekiwonvu n’abali mu Besuseani n’ebibuga byakyo era n’abali mu kiwonvu eky’e Yezuleeri balina amagaali ag’ebyuma.”
Vanhu vaJosefa vakati, “Nyika yamakomo haitikwaniri, uye vaKenani vose vanogara mubani vane ngoro dzesimbi, ivo vose vari muBheti Sheani nemisha yaro pamwe chete navari muMupata weJezireeri.”
17 Yoswa n’ayogera eri ennyumba ya Yusufu, n’eya Efulayimu n’eya Manase nti, “Muli kika kinene era mulina amaanyi mangi temuliba na mugabo gumu gwokka,
Asi Joshua akati kuimba yaJosefa, imba yaEfuremu naManase, “Imi muri vanhu vazhinji uye mune simba guru. Hamungave nomugove mumwe chete
18 naye ensi ey’ensozi eribeera yammwe, newaakubadde nga ya kibira mulikisaawa okutuuka gye kikoma, kubanga muligobamu Abakanani newaakubadde nga balina amagaali ag’ebyuma era nga baamaanyi.”
asi nyika yamakomo ichava yenyu; nokuti kunyange riri dondo, muchafanira kuritema rigova renyu kusvikira kwarinoperera, nokuti munofanira kudzinga vaKenani, kunyange vane ngoro dzesimbi uye vane simba.”
