1 Na i te whenua pukepuke o Eparaima tetahi tangata, ko Mika tona ingoa.
Ŋutsu aɖe nɔ Efraim ƒe tonyigba dzi, eŋkɔe nye Mika.
2 Na ka mea ia ki tona whaea, Ko nga hiriwa kotahi tekau ma tahi rau i tangohia ra i a koe, te mea i kanga ra koe, i korero ai hoki koe ki oku taringa, nana, kei ahau aua hiriwa; naku i tango. Na ka mea tona whaea, Ma Ihowa koe e manaaki, e taku ta ma.

3 Na ka whakahokia e ia nga hiriwa kotahi tekau ma tahi rau ki tona whaea, a ka mea tona whaea; Ka whakatapua rawatia e ahau te hiriwa ma Ihowa, he mea na toku ringa ma taku tama, hei hanga whakapakoko, he mea whaowhao, he mea whakarewa. Na, me wha kahoki atu e ahau ki a koe inaianei.
Mika trɔ ga la na dadaa eye dadaa gblɔ nɛ be, “Makɔ ga la ŋu atsɔ na Aƒetɔ la ɖe tawò. Mana woawɔ aklamakpakpɛ aɖe na wò eye woafa klosalo ɖe eŋu.”
4 Na, i tana whakahokinga i te moni ki tona whaea, ka tango tona whaea i nga pihi hiriwa e rua rau, a hoatu ana ki te kaiwhakarewa, a nana i hanga tetahi whakapakoko whaowhao me tetahi mea whakarewa; na ka takoto aua mea ki te whare o Mika.
Dadaa tsɔ klosalo alafa eve na klosaloɖaŋuwɔla aɖe wòwɔ aklamakpakpɛ aɖe da ɖe Mika ƒe aƒe me.
5 Na he whare atua to taua tangata, to Mika, i hanga ano he epora e ia, me etahi terapimi, a i whakatohungatia hoki e ia tetahi o ana tama, a meinga ana hei tohunga mana.
Legba la ƒe ha ƒomevi vovovowo nɔ Mika si eye wòtsɔ via ɖeka ɖo wo nunɔlae.
6 I aua ra kahore o Iharaira kingi; ko ta ratou i mea ai ko nga mea i tika ki te titiro a tenei, a tenei.
Le ŋkeke mawo me la, fia aɖeke menɔ Israel o eya ta ame sia ame wɔa nu sia nu si dze eŋu.
7 Na tera tetahi taitama o Peterehema Hura, o te hapu o Hura, he Riwaiti, a i reira ano ia e noho ana.
Ɖekakpui aɖe si nye Levitɔ la nɔ Betlehem le Yuda,
8 Na ka haere atu taua tangata i te pa, i Peterehema Hura, kia noho ki tana wahi e kite ai: a, i a ia e haere ana, ka tae ia ki te whenua pukepuke o Eparaima, ki te whare o Mika.
edzo le Betlehem be yeadi teƒe bubu aɖe anɔ. Le eƒe mɔzɔzɔ me la, eva ɖo Mika ƒe aƒe me le Efraim ƒe tonyigba dzi.
9 Na ka mea a Mika ki a ia, I haere mai koe i hea? A ka mea ia ki a ia, He Riwaiti ahau no Peterehema Hura, a e haere ana ahau kia noho ki taku wahi e kite ai.
Mika biae be, “Afi ka nètso?” Amedzro la ɖo eŋu be, “Levitɔe menye metso Betlehem le Yuda, mele teƒe nyui aɖe dim manɔ.”
10 Na ka mea a Mika ki a ia, E noho ki ahau, a hei matua koe moku, hei tohunga hoki, a kia tekau nga kiriwa e hoatu e ahau ki a koe i te tau, kia kotahi ano te whakaritenga kakahu, me te kai ano mau. Na ka tomo atu te Riwaiti.
Mika gblɔ nɛ be, “Nɔ gbɔnye eye nànye fofo kple nunɔla nam. Mana klosalo ewo wò ƒe sia ƒe hekpe ɖe wò nudodo, nuɖuɖu kple dɔƒe ŋu.” Levitɔ la lɔ̃ eye wòtsi anyi.
11 A pai tonu te Riwaiti kia noho ki taua tangata; a ka meinga taua taitamariki e ia kia rite ki tetahi o ana tama.
Enɔ na Mika abe via ŋutsuwo dometɔ ɖeka ene.
12 Na whakatohungatia ana e Mika taua Riwaiti, a ka waiho taua taitama hei tohunga mana, a noho ana i roto i te whare o Mika.
Mika kɔ ɖekakpui la ŋu eye wòzu nunɔla nɛ.
13 Na ka mea a Mika, Katahi ahau ka mohio ka atawhaitia ahau e Ihowa, ina hoki ka riro mai nei te Riwaiti hei tohunga moku.
Mika gblɔ be, “Menyae be Yehowa ayram azɔ elabena Levitɔ aɖee nye nunɔla le nye aƒe me.”
