Yoswa 22
1 Awo Yoswa n’ayita Abalewubeeni n’Abagaadi n’ekitundu eky’ekika kya Manase,
Pambuyo pake Yoswa anayitanitsa fuko la Rubeni, fuko la Gadi ndi theka la fuko la Manase,
2 n’abagamba nti, “Mwekuumye ne mukola byonna Musa omuweereza wa Mukama Katonda bye yabalagira.
ndipo anawawuza kuti, “Inu mwachita zonse zimene Mose mtumiki wa Yehova anakulamulani, ndipo mwamvera mu zonse zimene ndinakulamulirani.
3 Ebbanga lyonna n’okutuusa leero temulekeredde baganda bammwe, mubadde beegendereza okukuuma ekiragiro kya Mukama Katonda wammwe.
Aisraeli anzanu simunawasiye nthawi yayitali yonseyi mpaka lero lino. Inu mwaonetsetsa kuti mwachita zonse zimene Yehova anakulamulani.
4 Era kaakano Mukama Katonda wammwe awadde baganda bammwe emirembe nga bwe yabasuubiza. Noolwekyo muddeeyo mu maka gammwe mu nsi Musa omuweereza wa Mukama gye yabawa ku luuyi luli olulala olwa Yoludaani.
Tsono pakuti Yehova Mulungu wanu wapereka mpumulo kwa abale anu monga anayankhulira nawo, bwererani ku nyumba zanu ku dziko limene Mose mtumiki wa Yehova anakupatsani, dziko limene lili pa tsidya la Yorodani kummawa.
5 Wabula mwegendereze okukuumanga ebiragiro era n’amateeka Musa omuweereza wa Mukama bye yabalagira: okwagalanga Mukama Katonda wammwe, okutambuliranga mu makubo ge gonna, okukuumanga ebiragiro bye, n’okumunywererangako era n’okumuweerezanga n’omutima gwammwe gwonna era n’emmeeme yammwe yonna.”
Koma samalitsani kuti mumvere malamulo ndi malangizo amene Mose mtumiki wa Yehova anakupatsani: kukonda Yehova Mulungu wanu, kuchita zimene iye amafuna, kumvera malamulo ake, kukhala okhulupirika kwa Iye ndi kumutumikira ndi mtima wanu wonse ndi moyo wanu wonse.”
6 Yoswa n’alyoka abasabira omukisa n’abasiibula ne baddayo mu maka gaabwe.
Ndipo Yoswa anawadalitsa ndi kuwalola kuti apite ndipo anapitadi ku nyumba zawo.
7 Ekitundu ekimu eky’ekika kya Manase, Musa yali akigabidde ettaka mu Basani, n’ekitundu ekirala eky’ekika kya Manase ne baganda baabwe, Yoswa n’akiwa ettaka ku luuyi olw’ebugwanjuba bwa Yoludaani. Yoswa n’abawa omukisa n’abasiibula baddeyo ewaabwe.
Apa nʼkuti Mose atapereka dziko la Basani ku theka lina la fuko la Manase. Koma theka lina la fuko la Manase Yoswa analipatsa dziko la kumadzulo kwa Yorodani pamodzi ndi abale awo onse. Pamene Yoswa ankawatumiza kwawo anthu amenewa, anawadalitsa,
8 N’abagamba nti, “Ente nnyingi, ne ffeeza, ne zaabu, n’ekikomo, n’ekyuma, era n’engoye nnyingi bye munyaze ku balabe bammwe; mubigabaane ne baganda bammwe.”
nawawuza kuti, “Mukubwerera kwanu ndi chuma chambiri. Muli ndi ngʼombe zambiri pamodzi ndi siliva, golide, mkuwa ndi chitsulo, ndiponso zovala zambiri. Izi zimene munafunkha kwa adani anu agawireni abale anu.”
9 Awo Abalewubeeni n’abaana ba Gaadi n’ekitundu eky’ekika kya Manase nga bava mu baana ba Isirayiri mu Siiro ekiri mu nsi ya Kanani ne baddayo mu nsi yaabwe, mu Gireyaadi, gye baali bagabanye bo bennyini ng’ekiragiro kya Mukama Katonda bwe kyali okuyita mu Musa.
Choncho mafuko a Rubeni, Gadi, pamodzi ndi theka la fuko la Manase anabwerera kwawo. Aisraeli ena onse anawasiya ku Silo mʼdziko la Kanaani. Tsono anapita ku dziko la Giliyadi, dziko limene linali lawo popeza analilandira potsata malamulo a Yehova kudzera mwa Mose.
10 Era bwe baatuuka mu kitundu ekiriraanye Yoludaani mu nsi ya Kanani, abaana ba Lewubeeni n’abaana ba Gaadi n’ekitundu eky’ekika kya Manase, ne bazimba awo ekyoto, ekinene ddala.
Atafika ku Geliloti, malo amene ali mʼmbali mwa mtsinje wa Yorodani mʼdziko la Kanaani, fuko la Rubeni, fuko la Gadi ndi theka la fuko la Manase anamanga guwa lansembe lalikulu pamenepo.
11 Wabula abantu ba Isirayiri bwe baawulira nti bazimbye ekyoto ku Yoludaani ku luuyi lwa Isirayiri,
Ndipo pamene Aisraeli ena onse anawuzidwa kuti anthu a fuko la Rubeni, fuko la Gadi ndi theka la fuko la Manase amanga guwa lansembe mʼmalire a Kanaani ku Geliloti, ku tsidya lathu lino la Yorodani,
12 ekibiina kyonna ekya Isirayiri ne bakuŋŋaana e Siiro beetegekere olutalo babalumbe.
gulu lonse la Aisraeli linasonkhana ku Silo kuti lipite kukachita nawo nkhondo.
13 Awo abaana ba Isirayiri ne batuma Finekaasi omwana wa Eriyazaali kabona eri Abalewubeeni, n’Abagaadi, n’ekitundu ky’ekika kya Manase mu nsi ya Gireyaadi.
Choncho Aisraeli anatumiza Finehasi mwana wa wansembe, Eliezara ku dziko la Giliyadi kwa mafuko a Rubeni, Gadi ndi theka la fuko la Manase.
14 Ne batumirako abakungu kkumi, omu omu omukulu w’ennyumba mu buli kika kya Isirayiri.
Pamodzi ndi Finehasiyo anatumiza akuluakulu khumi ochokera ku fuko lililonse la Aisraeli. Aliyense mwa akuluakulu amenewa anali mtsogoleri wa banja limodzi la mafuko a Aisraeli.
15 Bwe bajja eri Abalewubeeni, n’Abagaadi, n’ekibiina kyonna ekya Manase mu nsi ya Gireyaadi ne babagamba nti,
Atafika ku Giliyadi anawuza fuko la Rubeni, Gadi ndi theka lija la fuko la Manase kuti,
16 “Ekibiina kyonna ekya Mukama bwe kiti bwe kigamba, ‘Muyinza mutya okukyama bwe muti okuva ku Katonda wa Isirayiri? Muyinza mutya okuva ku Mukama ne mwezimbira ekyoto ne mumujeemera awo?
“Gulu lonse likukufunsa kuti, ‘Chifukwa chiyani mwachita chinthu chonyansa chotere potsutsana ndi Mulungu wa Israeli? Nʼchifukwa chiyani mwapatuka ndi kuleka kutsata Yehova podzimangira nokha guwa lansembe? Mwapandukiratu Yehova!
17 Ekibi kya Peoli tekyatumala, ate nga n’okwerongoosa tubadde tetunnaba kwerongoosa kwemalako kibi ekyo, wadde kawumpuli yagwa ku kibiina kya Mukama Katonda,
Kodi tchimo lija la ku Peori ndi lochepa kwa inu? Paja Yehova analanga gulu lonse ndi mliri chifukwa cha tchimolo, ndipo mpaka lero tchimo limene lija tikanazunzika nalobe.
18 ate mmwe ne mulekeraawo okugoberera Mukama Katonda? “‘Bwe munaajeemera Mukama leero, enkya ajja kunyiigira eggwanga lyonna erya Isirayiri.
Kodi inu tsono mufuna kupatuka kuleka kumutsata Yehova? “‘Ngati lero mumupandukira Yehovayo, ndiye kuti mawamawali Iye adzakwiyira gulu lonse wa Israeli.
19 Obanga ensi gye mututte sinnongoofu, mujje eno eri ensi ya Mukama, weema ya Mukama gy’eri, tugabane eno gye tuli; kye mutasaana kukola kwe kujeemera Mukama, oba okutufuula ffe abajeemu nga mwezimbira ekyoto ekitali kya Mukama Katonda waffe.
Ngati dziko limene inu mwatenga ndi loyipitsidwa, bwerani ku dziko la Yehova kumene kuli chihema chake kuja, ndipo mukhale nafe limodzi. Koma inu musawukire Yehova kapena kutisandutsa ife kukhala opanduka podzimangira guwa lansembe, kuwonjezera pa guwa lansembe la Yehova Mulungu wanu.
20 Akani mutabani wa Zeera teyajeema bwe yatoola ku bintu Mukama bye yali yeerobozza, ekiruyi kya Mukama ne kijjira ekibiina kyonna ekya Isirayiri? Si ye yekka eyazikirira olw’ekibi kye.’”
Kumbukirani pamene Akani mwana wa Zera anakana kumvera lamulo la zinthu zoyenera kuwonongedwa, kodi suja mkwiyo wa Yehova unagwera gulu lonse la Israeli? Akaniyo sanafe yekha chifukwa cha tchimo lakelo.’”
21 Abalewubeeni, n’Abagaadi, n’ekitundu ky’ekika kya Manase ne balyoka baddamu abakulu b’ebika bya Isirayiri nti,
Tsono mafuko a Rubeni, Gadi ndi theka la fuko la Manase anawayankha atsogoleri a mabanja a Israeli aja kuti,
22 “Mukama Katonda ow’Amaanyi, Mukama ow’Amaanyi! Ye amanyi, era Isirayiri akimanye! Bwe kiba nga kyabadde mu kwediima oba kujeemera Mukama, temutusonyiwa leero.
“Wamphamvu uja, Mulungu ndiye Yehova! Wamphamvu uja Mulungu ndiye Yehova. Iyeyu ndiye akudziwa chifukwa chiyani tinachita zimenezi. Tikufunanso kuti inu mudziwe. Ngati tinachita izi mopandukira ndiponso moonetsa kusakhulupirira Yehova, lero lomwe lino musatisiye ndi moyo.
23 Bwe tuba nga ekyatuzimbya ekyoto kwe kuva ku Mukama, tukiweereko ekiweebwayo ekyokebwa oba ekiweebwayo ekyobutta oba ssaddaaka ez’ebiweebwayo olw’emirembe, Mukama Katonda yennyini atuvunaane.
Ngati tinapandukira Yehova ndi kuleka kumutsata pamene tinadzimangira guwa loti tizipserezerapo nsembe kapena kupereka nsembe zaufa, kapena nsembe za mtendere, Yehova yekha ndiye atilange.
24 Nedda, twakikola mu kutya nti mu mirembe egijja abaana baffe balitubuuza nti, ‘Mukama Katonda wa Isirayiri mumumanyiiko ki?
“Ayi! Ife tinachita izi kuopa kuti tsiku lina zidzukulu zanu zingadzanene kwa zidzukulu zathu kuti, ‘Kodi inu mukufuna chiyani kwa Yehova Mulungu wa Israeli?
25 Kubanga Mukama yakola Yoludaani okubeera ensalo wakati wammwe naffe mmwe Abalewubeeni, n’Abagaadi, temulina mugabo eri Mukama Katonda.’ Noolwekyo abaana bammwe bayinza okugaana abaana baffe okusinza Mukama Katonda.
Yehova anayika mtsinje wa Yorodani kukhala malire pakati pa ife ndi inu, anthu a fuko la Rubeni ndi Gadi. Inuyo mulibe gawo mwa Yehova.’ Tsono mwina zidzukulu zanuzo nʼkudzaletsa zathu kupembedza Yehova.
26 “Kyetwava tugamba nti, ‘Leka tuzimbe kaakano ekyoto ekitali kya kukozesa ku biweebwayo ebyokebwa, wadde ssaddaaka,’
“Nʼchifukwa chake tinaganiza kuti, ‘Tiyeni timange guwa lansembe, koma osati kuti tiziperekapo nsembe zopsereza kapena zopereka.’
27 naye kibeere akabonero ak’obujulizi wakati waffe nammwe, era ne wakati we mirembe egirituddirira nti tugenda mu maaso ga Mukama Katonda ne tumusinza n’ebiweebwayo byaffe ebyokebwa ne ssaddaaka era n’ebiweebwayo olw’emirembe si kulwa nga abaana bammwe bagamba abaana baffe mu biseera ebijja nti, ‘Temulina mugabo gwonna eri Mukama Katonda.’
Koma mosiyana ndi zimenezi, guwali likhale umboni pakati pa ife ndi inu ndiponso mibado imene ikubwerayo, kuti ife timapembedzanso Yehova ndi nsembe zathu zopsereza, zopereka, ndiponso nsembe za mtendere. Motero mʼtsogolo muno zidzukulu zanu sizidzatha kunena kwa zidzukulu zathu kuti, ‘Inu mulibe gawo mwa Yehova!’
28 Kyetwava tugamba nti, ‘Bwe balitugamba batyo oba okugamba abaana baffe abaliddawo, tulibaddamu nti, “Mulabe ekifaananyi kye kyoto kya Mukama Katonda, bakitaffe kye baakola, si lwa biweebwayo ebyokebwa wadde ssaddaaka, naye okubeera omujulirwa wakati waffe nammwe.”’
“Ndipo ife tinati kuti, ‘Ngati iwo adzatiyankhulira kapena kuyankhulira zidzukulu zathu motero mʼtsogolo muno, ife tidzayankha kuti, onani guwa lansembe, lofanana ndi lomwe makolo athu anamanga osati loperekerapo nsembe zopsereza kapena nsembe zina koma ngati umboni pakati pa inu ndi ife.’
29 Kikafuuwe ffe okujeemera Mukama era n’okumuvaako leero ne tutamugoberera nga tuzimba ekyoto eky’ebiweebwayo ebyokebwa, oba ebiweebwayo eby’empeke, oba ssaddaaka, ekitali kyoto kya Mukama Katonda waffe ekiri mu maaso ga Ssanduuko y’Endagaano ye!”
“Sizingatheke konse kuti ife lero nʼkupandukira Yehova. Ife sitingapatuke kuleka kumutsata Yehova ndi kumanga guwa lina la nsembe zopsereza, nsembe za zakudya, ndi nsembe zina zopikisana ndi guwa la Yehova, Mulungu wathu limene lili patsogolo pa Hema ya Yehova mʼmene amakhalamo.”
30 Finekaasi kabona, n’abakulu b’ebibiina by’ebika bya Isirayiri abaali naye bwe baawulira ebigambo Abalewubeeni, n’Abagaadi n’aba Manase bye bayogera, ne bibasanyusa nnyo.
Tsono Finehasi wansembe ndi atsogoleri a gululo amene anali naye atamva zimene anthu a fuko la Rubeni, Gadi ndi theka lakummawa la fuko la Manase ananena, anakondwera kwambiri.
31 Finekaasi mutabani wa Eriyazaali kabona n’agamba Abalewubeeni n’Abagaadi n’abaana ba Manase nti, “Leero tutegedde nti Mukama ali wakati mu ffe, kubanga temukoze kivve kino eri Mukama Katonda, kaakano abantu ba Isirayiri mubawonyezza omukono gwa Mukama Katonda.”
Ndipo Finehasi wansembe, mwana wa Eliezara anati kwa mafuko a Rubeni, Gadi ndi Manase, “Lero tadziwa kuti Yehova ali nafe chifukwa zimene mwachitazi simunawukire nazo Yehova. Inu mwapulumutsa Aisraeli onse ku chilango cha Yehova.”
32 Awo Finekaasi mutabani wa Eriyazaali kabona, n’abakulu b’ebika ne bava eri Abalewubeeni, n’Abagaadi mu nsi ye Kanani, ne baddayo eri abantu ba Isirayiri ne bababuulira ebibaddeyo.
Ndipo Finehasi mwana wa wansembe Eliezara, pamodzi ndi atsogoleriwo anachoka ku Giliyadi nasiya anthu a fuko la Rubeni ndi Gadi nabwerera ku Kanaani kwa Aisraeli anzawo, ndipo anakafotokoza zonsezi.
33 Bye baayogera ne bisanyusa abantu ba Isirayiri ne bagulumiza Katonda ne bataddayo kwogera ku bya lutalo kubalumba, bazikirize ensi Abalewubeeni, n’Abagaadi gye baali basenze.
Mawu amenewa anakondweretsa Aisraeli onse ndipo anayamika Mulungu. Choncho sanakambenso zopita ku nkhondo kukawononga dziko limene Arubeni ndi Agadi ankakhalamo.
34 Abalewubeeni n’Abagaadi ne batuuma ekyoto erinnya Mujulizi, ne bagamba nti, “Kubanga mujulizi eri ffe nti Mukama ye Katonda.”
Arubeni ndi Agadi anatcha guwalo kuti Mboni: Mboni pakati pathu kuti Yehova ndi Mulungu.
