< Mpitsara 2 >
1 Ary Ilay Anjelin’ i Jehovah niakatra avy tany Gilgala ka nankany Bokima, dia nanao hoe: Nitondra anareo niakatra avy tany Egypta Aho ka nampiditra anareo eto amin’ ny tany izay nianianako tamin’ ny razanareo homena azy, ka hoy Izaho: Tsy hanatsoaka ny fanekeko taminareo Aho mandrakizay;
Pea naʻe haʻu ʻae ʻāngelo ʻa Sihova mei Kilikali ki Pokimi, ʻo ne pehē, “Naʻaku ʻo hake ʻakimoutolu mei ʻIsipite, pea kuo u ʻomi ʻakimoutolu ki he fonua ʻaia naʻaku fuakava ai ki hoʻomou ngaahi tamai; pea ne u pehē, ‘ʻE ʻikai ʻaupito te u liʻaki ʻeku fuakava mo kimoutolu.
2 koa aza manao fanekena amin’ ny tompon-tany ianareo, fa ravao ny alitarany; kanefa tsy nihaino ny feoko ianareo; koa inona moa izao nataonareo izao?
Pea ʻe ʻikai te mou alea ke fakataha mo e kakai ʻoe fonua ni: ka te mou laku hifo honau ngaahi feilaulauʻanga:’ ka naʻe ʻikai te mou fai talangofua ki hoku leʻo: ko e hā kuo mou fai ai ʻae meʻa ni?
3 Ary hoy Izaho indray: Tsy handroaka azy eo anoloanareo Aho; fa ho tsilo eo amin’ ny tehezanareo sy ho fandrika aminareo ny andriamaniny.
Ko ia kuo u lea foki ʻo pehē, ʻE ʻikai te u kapusi ʻakinautolu mei homou ʻao: ka tenau hoko [ko e ngaahi talaʻi ʻakau ]ʻi homou vakavaka, pea ko honau ngaahi ʻotua ko e tauhele kiate kimoutolu.”
4 Ary nony niteny izany teny izany tamin’ ny Zanak’ Isiraely rehetra Ilay Anjelin’ i Jehovah, dia nanandratra ny feony ny vahoaka ka nitomany.
Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻi he lea ʻae ʻāngelo ʻa Sihova ʻaki ʻae ngaahi lea ni ki he fānau kotoa pē ʻa ʻIsileli, naʻe hiki hake honau leʻo ʻe he kakai, ʻo tangi.
5 Ary ny anaran’ izany tany izany dia nataony hoe Bokima; ary namono zavatra teo izy hatao fanatitra ho an’ i Jehovah.
Pea naʻa nau ui hono hingoa ʻoe potu ko ia ko Pokimi: pea naʻa nau fai ʻi ai ʻae feilaulau kia Sihova.
6 Ary rehefa nampodin’ i Josoa ny vahoaka, dia nandeha ho any amin’ ny lovany avy ny Zanak’ Isiraely rehetra handova ny tany.
Pea ʻi he tuku ʻe Siosiua ʻae kakai ke ʻalu; naʻe ʻalu ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli ʻae tangata taki taha kotoa pē ki hono tofiʻa ke maʻu ʻae fonua.
7 Ary nanompo an’ i Jehovah ny vahoaka tamin’ ny andro rehetra niainan’ i Josoa sy tamin’ ny andro rehetra niainan’ ny loholona izay velona taorian’ i Josoa, dia ireo izay efa nahita ny asa lehibe rehetra nataon’ i Jehovah ho an’ ny Isiraely.
Pea naʻe tauhi ʻa Sihova ʻe he kakai ʻi he ʻaho kotoa pē ʻo Siosiua, pea mo e ngaahi ʻaho kotoa pē ʻoe kau mātuʻa naʻa nau moʻui fuoloa ange ʻia Siosiua, ʻakinautolu naʻe mamata ki he ngaahi ngāue lahi ʻa Sihova, ʻaia naʻa ne fai maʻa ʻIsileli.
8 Ary maty Josoa, zanak’ i Nona, mpanompon’ i Jehovah, rehefa folo amby zato taona ny androny.
Pea naʻe pekia ʻa Siosiua ko e foha ʻo Nuni ko e tamaioʻeiki ʻa Sihova, kuo teau taʻu hono motuʻa mo e taʻu ʻe hongofulu.
9 Dia nalevina tao anatin’ ny fari-tanin’ ny lovany izy, dia tao Timnata-heresa, any amin’ ny tany havoan’ i Efraima, avaratry ny tendrombohitra Gasa.
Pea naʻa nau fai hono putu ʻi he veʻe fonua ʻo hono tofiʻa ʻi Timinate-Helesi, ʻi he moʻunga ʻo ʻIfalemi, ʻi hono potu tokelau ʻoe moʻunga ko Keasi.
10 Ary izany taranaka rehetra izany koa dia voangona any amin’ ny razany; ary taranaka hafa, izay tsy nahalala an’ i Jehovah na ny asa efa nataony ho an’ ny Isiraely, no nitsangana nandimby azy.
Pea naʻe tānaki foki ʻae toʻutangata kotoa pē ko ia ki heʻenau ngaahi tamai; pea naʻe tupu hake ʻae toʻutangata ʻe taha ʻo hoko mo kinautolu, ʻaia naʻe ʻikai tenau ʻilo ʻa Sihova, pe ko e ngaahi ngāue foki naʻe fai ʻe ia maʻa ʻIsileli.
11 Ary nanao izay ratsy eo imason’ i Jehovah ny Zanak’ Isiraely, fa nanompo ireo Bala
Pea naʻe fai kovi ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova, pea naʻa [nau ]tauhi ʻa Peali:
12 ka nahafoy an’ i Jehovah, Andriamanitry ny razany, Izay nitondra azy nivoaka avy tany amin’ ny tany Egypta, ka nanaraka andriamani-kafa amin’ ny andriamanitry ny firenena manodidina azy, dia niankohoka teo anatrehany ka nampahatezitra an’ i Jehovah.
Pea naʻa nau liʻaki ʻa Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻenau ngaahi tamai, ʻaia naʻa ne ʻomi ʻakinautolu mei he fonua ko ʻIsipite, ʻonau muimui ki he ngaahi ʻotua kehe, ʻi he ngaahi ʻotua ʻoe kakai naʻe nofo takatakai ʻiate kinautolu, ʻonau punou hifo ʻakinautolu kiate kinautolu, ʻo fakatupu ʻae houhau ʻo Sihova.
13 Eny, nahafoy an’ i Jehovah izy ka nanampo an’ i Bala sy Astarta.
Pea naʻa nau liʻaki ʻa Sihova, ʻo tauhi ʻa Peali mo ʻAsitelote.
14 Dia nirehitra tamin’ ny Isiraely ny fahatezeran’ i Jehovah, ka natolony teo an-tànan’ ny mpamabo izay namabo azy izy, ary namidiny ho eo an-tànan’ ny fahavalony manodidina azy ka tsy nahajanona teo anoloan’ ny fahavalony intsony.
Pea naʻe tupu ʻo vela lahi ʻae houhau ʻa Sihova ki ʻIsileli, pea naʻa ne tukuange ʻakinautolu ki he nima ʻoe kau maumau, ʻaia naʻe maumauʻi ʻakinautolu, pea naʻa ne fakatau ʻakinautolu ki he nima ʻo honau ngaahi fili naʻe takatakai ʻakinautolu, ko ia naʻe ʻikai tenau kei faʻa tuʻu ʻi he ʻao ʻo honau ngaahi fili.
15 Na taiza na taiza nivoahany, dia namely azy ny tanan’ i Jehovah ka nampahory azy, araka izay efa nolazain’ i Jehovah sy araka izay efa nianianany taminy; ka dia ory indrindra izy.
Ko e ngaahi potu kotoa pē naʻa nau ʻalu ki ai, naʻe hiki ai ʻae nima ʻo Sihova kiate kinautolu ki he kovi, ʻo hangē ko e lea ʻa Sihova, pea hangē ko e fuakava ʻa Sihova kiate kinautolu: pea naʻa nau mamahi lahi.
16 Kanefa Jehovah nanangana mpitsara izay namonjy azy tamin’ ny tànan’ ireo namabo azy.
Ka neongo ia naʻe fokotuʻu hake ʻe Sihova ʻae kau fakamaau, ʻaia naʻe fakamoʻui ʻakinautolu mei he nima ʻokinautolu naʻe maumauʻi ʻakinautolu.
17 Fa na dia ny mpitsara azy aza dia tsy mba nohenoiny, fa nandeha nijangajanga nanaraka andriamani-kafa izy ka niankohoka teo anatrehany; nivily faingana niala tamin’ ny lalana izay nandehanan’ ny razany nanaraka ny didin’ i Jehovah izy, fa tsy mba nanaraka izany.
Ka naʻe ʻikai tenau fie fanongo ki honau kau fakamaau, ka naʻa nau ʻalu holi kovi pe ki he ngaahi ʻotua kehe, ke punou hifo ʻakinautolu ki ai: naʻa nau tafoki vave mei he hala ʻaia naʻe ʻalu ai ʻenau ngaahi tamai, ʻi [heʻenau ]fai talangofua ki he ngaahi fekau ʻa Sihova: he naʻe ʻikai tenau fai pehē.
18 Ary rehefa nanangana mpitsara ho azy Jehovah, dia nomba izany mpitsara izany Izy ka namonjy ny olona tamin’ ny tanan’ ny fahavalony tamin’ ny andro rehetra niainan’ izany mpitsara izany; fa nalahelo azy Jehovah amin’ ny fitarainany noho ireo nampahory sy nampalahelo azy.
Pea ʻi he fokotuʻu ʻe Sihova ʻae kau fakamaau kiate kinautolu, pea naʻe ʻi he fakamaau ʻa Sihova, ʻo ne fakamoʻui ʻakinautolu mei he nima ʻo honau ngaahi fili ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho kotoa pē ʻoe fakamaau: he naʻe fakatomala ʻa Sihova ko e meʻa ʻi heʻenau ngaahi toʻe koeʻuhi ko kinautolu naʻe fakamamahiʻi ʻakinautolu mo fakafiuʻi ʻakinautolu.
19 Kanjo nony maty ilay mpitsara, dia nanao ratsy indray izy mihoatra noho ny nataon’ ny razany, fa nanaraka andriamani-kafa sy nanompo azy ary niankohoka teo anatrehany izy; tsy nitsahatra tàmin’ ny fanaony na tamin’ ny lalana nanaovany ditra izy.
Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻi he pekia leva ʻae fakamaau, naʻa nau tafoki ʻo fakahalaʻi lahi ʻaupito hake ʻakinautolu ʻi heʻenau ngaahi tamai, ʻi he muimui ʻi he ngaahi ʻotua kehe ke tauhi ʻakinautolu, ʻo punou hifo ki ai; naʻe ʻikai tenau tuku ʻenau fai ki honau faianga, pe mei he anga mālohi ʻanautolu.
20 Dia nirehitra tamin’ ny Isiraely ny fahatezeran’ i Jehovah, ka hoy Izy: Satria nivadika ny fanekeko izay nandidiako ny razany ity firenena ity ka tsy nihaino ny feoko,
Pea naʻe tupu ʻo vela ʻae houhau ʻo Sihova ki ʻIsileli; pea naʻe pehē ʻe ia, “Ko e meʻa ʻi he liʻaki ʻe he kakai ni ʻeku fuakava ʻaia naʻaku fekau ki heʻenau ngaahi tamai, pea ʻoku ʻikai tenau tokanga ki hoku leʻo;
21 dia tsy handroaka olona eo anoloany intsony Aho amin’ ny firenena izay tsy mbola resy hatramin’ ny andro nahafatesan’ i Josoa,
Ngata mei heni, ʻe ʻikai te u kapusi mei honau ʻao ʻae ngaahi puleʻanga naʻe tuku ʻe Siosiua ʻi heʻene pekia;
22 mba hizahako toetra ny Isiraely amin’ ireny, na hitandrina ny lalan’ i Jehovah ka handeha amin’ izany araka izay nitandreman’ ny razany izany izy, na tsia.
Koeʻuhi ke u ʻahiʻahiʻi ʻa ʻIsileli ʻiate kinautolu, ke ʻilo pe tenau tauhi ʻae hala ʻo Sihova ke ʻalu ʻi ai, ʻo hangē hono tauhi ia ʻe heʻenau ngaahi tamai, pe ʻikai.”
23 Dia navelan’ i Jehovah ireny firenena ireny ka tsy noroahiny faingana; sady tsy voatolony teo an-tànan’ i Josoa ireny.
Ko ia naʻe tuku pē ʻe Sihova ʻae ngaahi puleʻanga ko ia, ʻo ʻikai kapusi vave ʻakinautolu kituaʻā: pea naʻe ʻikai te ne tukuange ʻakinautolu ki he nima ʻo Siosiua.
