1 Teo henane zay t’Ieftake, nte-Gilade, fanalolahy, ana’ ty tsimirirañe; nasama’ i Gilade t’Ieftake.
Njalo uJefitha umGileyadi wayeliqhawe elilamandla, wayeyindodana yewule; uGileyadi wasezala uJefitha.
2 Nahatoly ana-dahy ka ty tañanjomba’ i Gilade, aa ie nibey le rinoa’ iareo añe t’Ieftake, ami’ty hoe: Tsy ho lovae’o ty anjomban-drae’ay; ihe ana-drakemba ambahiny.
UmkaGileyadi wasemzalela amadodana; kwathi amadodana omkakhe esekhulile amxotsha uJefitha, athi kuye: Kawuyikudla ilifa endlini kababa, ngoba uyindodana yomunye umfazi.
3 Aa le nipotatsak’ amo rahalahi’eo nimoneñe an-tane Tobe ao t’Ieftake; vaho nirekets’ amy Ieftake ondaty tsy manjofake mpiharo fiavotse ama’e.
UJefitha wasebalekela abafowabo, wahlala elizweni leTobi. Amadoda ayize asebuthana kuJefitha, aphuma laye.
4 Ie añe le tondroke te nialy am’ Israele o ana’ i Amoneo.
Kwasekusithi emva kwezinsuku abantwana bakoAmoni balwa loIsrayeli.
5 Ie amy zay, kanao nialy am’ Israele o ana’ i Amoneo, le nañitrike hangalake Ieftak’ an-tane Tobe añe o mpiaolo’ i Giladeo.
Kwasekusithi lapho abantwana bakoAmoni besilwa loIsrayeli, abadala beGileyadi bahamba ukuyathatha uJefitha elizweni leTobi,
6 Le hoe iereo am’ Ieftake, Antao ho mpifelek’ anay, hialy amo ana’ i Amoneo.
bathi kuJefitha: Woza ube ngumkhokheli wethu ukuze silwe labantwana bakoAmoni.
7 Aa hoe t’Ieftak’ amo roandria’ i Giladeo: Tsy mpalaiñ’ ahy hao nahareo, kanao rinoa’ areo añ’ anjomban-draeko? Inoñ’ arè ty nomba’ areo mb’amako henaneo t’ie am-poheke?
Kodwa uJefitha wathi kubadala beGileyadi: Lina kalingizondanga yini, langixotsha endlini kababa? Pho, lizelani kimi khathesi nxa selisenhluphekweni?
8 Le hoe o mpiaolo’ i Giladeo am’ Ieftake: Mimpoly ama’o henaneo, hindreza’o ama’ay hifanehak’ amo ana’ i Amoneo, vaho ho fehe’o ze hene mpimone’ i Gilade.
Abadala beGileyadi basebesithi kuJefitha: Ngakho khathesi siyabuyela kuwe ukuze uhambe lathi uyekulwa umelene labantwana bakoAmoni, ube yinhloko yethu phezu kwabo bonke abakhi beGileyadi.
9 Le hoe t’Ieftak’ amo roae’ i Giladeo: Aa naho endese’o moly iraho hialy amo ana’ i Amoneo vaho hatolo’ Iehovà aoloko iereo, ho mpifehe’ areo hao?
UJefitha wasesithi kubadala beGileyadi: Uba lingibuyisa ukulwa ngimelene labantwana bakoAmoni, iNkosi ibanikele phambi kwami, mina ngizakuba yinhloko yenu yini?
10 Le hoe o roae’ i Giladeo am’ Ieftake, Ho valolombeloñ’ añivon-tika t’Iehovà, toe hanoe’ay i nitaroñe’oy.
Abadala beGileyadi basebesithi kuJefitha: INkosi iyezwa phakathi kwethu, uba singenzi njalo njengokwamazwi akho.
11 Aa le nindre lia amo roae’ i Giladeo t’Ieftake, naho nanoe’ ondatio lohàñe naho mpiaolo’ iareo; vaho nitaroñe’ Ieftak’ añatrefa’ Iehovà e Mitspà i saontsi’ey.
UJefitha wasehamba labadala beGileyadi, abantu basebemenza waba yinhloko lomkhokheli phezu kwabo. UJefitha wasekhuluma wonke amazwi akhe phambi kweNkosi eMizipa.
12 Nañitrik’ amy mpanjaka’ o ana’ i Amoneoy t’Ieftake, nanao ty hoe: Inoñ’ ama’o iraho t’ie nomb’ amako mb’ etoa hialy amy tanekoy?
UJefitha wasethuma izithunywa enkosini yabantwana bakoAmoni esithi: Ngilani lawe ukuthi uze kimi ukulwa elizweni lami?
13 Le hoe ty natoi’ i mpanjaka’ o ana’ i Amoneoy amo ira’ Ieftakeo: Amy te tinava’ Israele ty taneko, ie niakatse boake Mitsraime añe boak’ amy Arnoney pak’ am’ Iaboke eo naho mb’ am’ Iordaney mb’eoy; ie amy zao ampolio amako am-panintsiñañe i rova rey.
Inkosi yabantwana bakoAmoni yasisithi kuzithunywa zikaJefitha: Ngoba uIsrayeli wathatha ilizwe lami ekwenyukeni kwakhe eGibhithe kusukela eArinoni kuze kube seJaboki kuze kube seJordani; ngakho-ke libuyiseni ngokuthula.
14 Nañitrik’ amy mpanjaka’ o ana’ i Amoneoy indraike t’Ieftake,
UJefitha wasephinda ethuma izithunywa futhi enkosini yabantwana bakoAmoni,
15 nanao ty hoe, Hoe t’Ieftake; Tsy tinava’ Israele ty tane’ i Moabe ndra ty tane’ o ana’ i Amoneo.
wathi kuye: Utsho njalo uJefitha: UIsrayeli kalithathanga ilizwe lakoMowabi lelizwe labantwana bakoAmoni,
16 Fa ie niakatse i Mitsraime añe, naho nañavelo am-pirangàñe i ratraratray sikal’ amy riake Menay t’Israele, vaho nivotrake e Kadese eo;
kodwa ekwenyukeni kwabo besuka eGibhithe uIsrayeli wahamba edabula enkangala waya eLwandle oluBomvu, wafika eKadeshi.
17 le nampisangitrik’ amy mpanjaka’ i Edomey t’Israele nanao ty hoe: Ehe, angao iraho hiranga o tane’oo; fe tsy nañaoñe ty mpifehe Edome. Nañitrife’e ka ty mpifehe i Moabe; fe tsy nimete; vaho nañialo e Kadese ao t’Israele.
UIsrayeli wasethuma izithunywa enkosini yeEdoma esithi: Ake sedlule sidabule elizweni lakho; kodwa inkosi yeEdoma kayilalelanga. Wathumela njalo enkosini yakoMowabi, kodwa kayivumanga. Ngakho uIsrayeli wahlala eKadeshi.
18 Aa le niranga i ratraratray niary an-tane Edome naho an-tane Moabe iereo, nañavelo atiñanan-tane Moabe añe, le nitobe alafe’ i Arnone eo, fa tsy nandilatse i efe-tane Moabey, amy te efe’ i Moabe ty Arnone.
Basebedabula enkangala, balibhoda ilizwe leEdoma lelizwe lakoMowabi, bafika lapho eliphuma khona ilanga kwelizwe lakoMowabi. Bamisa inkamba ngaphetsheya kweArinoni, kodwa kabangenanga emngceleni wakoMowabi, ngoba iArinoni yayingumngcele wakoMowabi.
19 Le nampañitrik’ amy Sihone mpanjaka’ o nte-Amoreo, mpanjaka’ i Kesbone, t’Israele nanao ty hoe: Ehe, angao homb’eo, hiranga an-tane’o mb’an-toeko mb’eo.
UIsrayeli wasethuma izithunywa kuSihoni inkosi yamaAmori, inkosi yeHeshiboni; uIsrayeli wathi kuye: Ake sedlule elizweni lakho siye endaweni yami.
20 Fe tsy niantofa’ i Sihone ty hirangà’ Israele i tane’ey, te mone fonga natonto’ i Sihone ondati’eo, naho nitobe e Iahatse vaho nialy am’ Israele.
Kodwa uSihoni kamthembanga uIsrayeli ukuthi adlule emngceleni wakhe; kodwa uSihoni wabutha bonke abantu bakhe, wamisa inkamba eJahazi, walwa loIsrayeli.
21 Fe hene natolo’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’ Israele am-pità’ Israele t’i Sihone naho ondati’eo vaho linafa’ iareo; aa le fanaña’ Israele ty tane’ o nte-Amore nimoneñe an-tane ao iabio.
Kodwa iNkosi, uNkulunkulu kaIsrayeli, yanikela uSihoni labo bonke abantu bakhe esandleni sikaIsrayeli, babatshaya. Ngakho uIsrayeli wadla ilifa lelizwe lonke lamaAmori, abahlali balelolizwe.
22 Le fanaña’ iareo ze hene tane’ o nte-Amoreo boak’ amy Arnoney pak’ am’ Iabokey vaho boak’am-patrambey añe pak’ am’ Iordaney.
Badla ilifa layo yonke imingcele yamaAmori kusukela eArinoni kuze kube seJaboki, njalo kusukela enkangala kuze kube seJordani.
23 Ie amy zay rinoa’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’ Israele aolo’ ondati’e Israeleo mb’eo o nte-Amoreo, aa vaho ho fanaña’ areo hao zay?
Khathesi-ke iNkosi, uNkulunkulu kaIsrayeli, yawaxotsha elifeni amaAmori phambi kwabantu bayo uIsrayeli; kanti wena uzakudla ilifa lalo yini?
24 Naho mahafandroake ondaty ho anahareo ty Kemose ‘ndrahare’ areo, tsy ho fanaña’ areo hao? Aa le ze roahe’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’ay aolo’ay, ro fanaña’ay.
Kawuyikudla yini ilifa lalokhu uKemoshi unkulunkulu wakho akunika ukudla ilifa lakho? Ngakho loba ngubani iNkosi uNkulunkulu wethu ezamxotsha elifeni phambi kwethu, lokhu sizakudla ilifa lakho.
25 Likoare’o hao t’i Balak’ ana’ i Tsipore, mpanjaka’ i Moabe? Nitamea’e hao t’Israele? Naname iereo an’ aly hao?
Pho-ke wena ungcono yini okwedlula uBalaki indodana kaZipori inkosi yakoMowabi? Wake waxabana loIsrayeli; kumbe wake walwa labo yini;
26 ie fa nimoneñe e Kesbone naho amo tanà’eo, naho e Areore naho amo tanà’eo naho amy ze hene rova añ’ olo’ i Arnoney, o taoñe telon-jato zao, t’Israele. Inoñ’ arè ty tsy nandrambesa’ areo aze hatrela izay?
lapho uIsrayeli esehlala eHeshiboni lemizaneni yayo, leAroweri lemizaneni yayo, lakuyo yonke imizi esekhunjini lweArinoni, iminyaka engamakhulu amathathu? Kungani-ke ungayophulanga ngalesosikhathi?
27 Ie amy zao tsy anaña’o hakeo, fa mandilatse ahy ka t’ie hialy amako; angao, hizaka añivo’ o ana’ Israeleo naho o ana’ i Amoneo t’Iehovà Mpizaka te anito.
Ngakho mina kangonanga kuwe, kodwa wena wenza okubi kimi ngokulwa lami; iNkosi uMahluleli kahlulele lamuhla phakathi kwabantwana bakoIsrayeli labantwana bakoAmoni.
28 Fe tsy hinao’ i mpanjaka’ o ana’ i Amoneoy i saontsy nihitrifa’ Ieftakey.
Kodwa inkosi yabantwana bakoAmoni kayilalelanga amazwi kaJefitha awathumela kuyo.
29 Niheo am’ Ieftak’ amy zao t’i Arofo’ Iehovà, le rinanga’e ty Mitspà’ i Gilade, le boake Mitspà’ i Gilade re nitoañe mb’ amo ana’ i Amoneo mb’eo.
UMoya weNkosi wasesiza phezu kukaJefitha, wedlula eGileyadi leManase, wedlula eMizipa yeGileyadi; esuka eMizipa wedlulela kubantwana bakoAmoni.
30 Le nanao fanta amy Iehovà t’Ieftak’ ami’ty hoe: Naho toe hatolo’o an-tañako o ana’ i Amoneo,
UJefitha wafunga isifungo eNkosini wathi: Uba uzanikela lokunikela abantwana bakoAmoni esandleni sami,
31 le ndra inoñ’ inoñe ty miakatse an-dalan-kibohoko hifanalaka amako, ie mimpoly am-panin­tsiñan-draho boak’ amo ana’ i Amoneo, le ho a Iehovà, vaho hengaeko ho soroñe.
kuzakuthi loba yikuphi okuphuma eminyango yendlu yami ukungihlangabeza ekubuyeni kwami ngokuthula ngivela kubantwana bakoAmoni, kuzakuba ngokweNkosi, ngizakunikela kube ngumnikelo wokutshiswa.
32 Aa le nitsake mb’ amo ana’ i Amoneo mb’eo haname iareo t’Ieftake; vaho natolo’ Iehovà am-pità’e.
Ngakho uJefitha wasesedlulela ebantwaneni bakoAmoni ukulwa emelene labo; iNkosi yasibanikela esandleni sakhe.
33 Le linafa’e boak’ Aroere, ampara’ ty figadoñañe e Minite añe, rova roapolo naho mb’ Abele-keramine mb’eo am-panjamanam-bey. Aa le niambane amo ana’ Israeleo o ana’ i Amoneo.
Wasebatshaya kusukela eAroweri uze ufike eMinithi, imizi engamatshumi amabili, kuze kube seAbeli-Keramimi, ukutshaya okukhulukazi. Ngokunjalo abantwana bakoAmoni behliselwa phansi phambi kwabantwana bakoIsrayeli.
34 Ie nivotrak’ añ’ anjomba’e e Mitspà eo t’Ieftake, hehe te i anak’ am­pela’ey ty niakatse hifanalaka ama’e ninday fikoriñañe an-tsinjake; i bako-toka’ey; tsy nanañ’ anadahy ndra anak’ ampela re naho tsy ie.
UJefitha wasefika eMizipa endlini yakhe. Khangela-ke, indodakazi yakhe yaphuma ukumhlangabeza, ilezigujana, lemigido; yayiyiyo yodwa eyakhe; ngaphandle kwayo wayengelandodana lendodakazi.
35 Ie nahaoniñe aze, le nandriatse o siki’eo, nanao ty hoe: Hoy abey! anako! Vata’e nampiambane’o! nanoe’o am-poheke, amy te sinokako amy Iehovà ty vavako, vaho tsy ifoterañe.
Kwasekusithi lapho eyibona wadabula izigqoko zakhe wathi: Maye ndodakazi yami! Ungithobisile kakhulu, njalo wena uphakathi kwabangihluphayo, ngoba mina ngivule umlomo wami eNkosini, ngingeke ngibuyele emuva.
36 Le hoe re ama’e, O raeko, kanao nanoka-palie am’ Iehovà, le ano amako i niakatse am-palie’oy, amy te namale fate ho azo, amo rafelahi’o ana’ i Amoneo, t’Iehovà.
Yasisithi kuye: Baba, uvulile umlomo wakho eNkosini, yenza kimi njengalokho okuphume emlonyeni wakho, lokhu iNkosi ikuphindisele ezitheni zakho, ebantwaneni bakoAmoni.
37 Le tinovo’e aman-drae’e ty hoe: Ehe te hanoeñe amako o raha zao t’ie ho vahiny volan-droe hañambone-ambane’ o vohi­tseo hangoihoy ty hasomondra­rako, izaho naho o mpiamakoo.
Yasisithi kuyise: Akungenzele linto: Ngiyekela inyanga ezimbili, ngiye ngehle ezintabeni, ngililele ubuntombi bami, mina labangane bami.
38 Le hoe re: Akia, le nirahe’e mb’eo volañe roe, le nionjomb’eo rekets’ o rañe’eo nirovetse i hasomondrara’ey an-kaboañe ey.
Wasesithi: Hamba. Waseyiyekela ihamba inyanga ezimbili. Yasihamba, yona labangane bayo, yalilela ubuntombi bayo ezintabeni.
39 Ie modo i volañe roe rey, le nimpoly aman-drae’e vaho nanoe’e ama’e i nifantà’ey, ie mbe tsy nahavany lahy. Izay ty nifotora’ ty lilitse e Israele ao,
Kwasekusithi ekupheleni kwenyanga ezimbili yabuyela kuyise, owenza kuyo isifungo sakhe asifungayo; yona kayiyazanga indoda. Kwasekusiba ngumkhuba koIsrayeli:
40 te mb’eo boa-taoñe o anak’ ampela’ Israeleo hirovetse i anak’ ampela’ Ieftake nte-Giladey, efatse andro ami’ ty taoñe.
Iminyaka ngeminyaka amadodakazi akoIsrayeli ayehamba ukuyakhumbula indodakazi kaJefitha umGileyadi insuku ezine ngomnyaka.
