Abahluleli 13
1 Abako-Israyeli benza okubi njalo emehlweni kaThixo, ngakho uThixo wabanikela ezandleni zamaFilistiya okweminyaka engamatshumi amane.
Israaʼeloonni ammas fuula Waaqayyoo duratti waan hamaa hojjetan; kanaafuu Waaqayyo waggaa afurtama dabarsee harka Filisxeemotaatti isaan kenne.
2 Umuntu othile waseZora, owayethiwa nguManowa, owosendo lwakoDani, wayelomfazi owayeyinyumba engelamntwana.
Namicha gosa Daan keessaa dhalatee Zoraa jiraatu kan Maanoʼaa jedhamu tokkotu ture; niitiin isaas dhabduu ijoollee tokko illee hin qabne turte.
3 Ingilosi kaThixo yabonakala kuye yathi, “Uyinyumba kawulamntwana, kodwa uzathatha isisu ube lendodana.
Ergamaan Waaqayyoos isheetti mulʼatee akkana jedheen; “Kunoo ati dhabduu ijoollee hin qabnee dha; garuu ulfooftee ilma deessa.
4 Ngakho nanzelela ukuthi kawunathi wayini loba okunye okunathwayo okulemvubelo kanye lokuthi ungadli ukudla okungcolileyo,
Egaa ati akka daadhii wayinii yookaan dhugaatii nama macheessu hin dhugne yookaan waan xuraaʼaa tokko illee hin nyaanne of eeggadhu;
5 ngoba uzathatha isisu uzale indodana. Akungabi lempuco ezasetshenziswa ekhanda layo, ngoba umfana uzakuba ngumNaziri, owahlukaniselwe uNkulunkulu kusukela ekuzalweni, njalo uzakukhulula abako-Israyeli ezandleni zamaFilistiya.”
ati ulfoofte ilma daʼuuf jirtaatii. Qarabaan tokko iyyuu mataa isaa hin tuqin; inni gaafa dhalatee jalqabee Naaziricha taʼuudhaan kan Waaqaaf addaan baafame taʼaatii; inni harka Filisxeemotaatii Israaʼeloota furuu jalqaba.”
6 Emva kwalokho owesifazane lowo waya kumkakhe wamtshela wathi, “Kufike umuntu kaNkulunkulu kimi. Ubefana lengilosi kaNkulunkulu, esesabeka kakhulu. Angimbuzanga ukuthi ubevela ngaphi, njalo laye kangitshelanga ibizo lakhe.
Dubartiin sunis gara dhirsa ishee dhaqxee akkana jettee itti himte; “Nama Waaqaa tokkotu gara koo dhufe. Innis ergamaa Waaqayyoo fakkaatee akka malee nama sodaachisa. Ani akka inni eessaa dhufe isa hin gaafanne; innis maqaa isaa natti hin himne.
7 Kodwa uthe kimi, ‘Uzathatha isisu uzale indodana. Ngakho-ke unganathi iwayini loba okunye okunathwayo okulemvubelo, njalo ungadli lutho olungcolileyo, ngoba umfana uzakuba ngumNaziri kaNkulunkulu kusukela ekuzalweni kuze kube lusuku lokufa kwakhe.’”
Garuu inni, ‘Ati ulfooftee ilma deessa. Egaa siʼachi daadhii wayinii yookaan dhugaatii nama macheessu hin dhugin; waan xuraaʼaas hin nyaatin; sababiin isaas inni gaafa dhalatee jalqabee hamma duʼutti Naaziricha Waaqaa taʼaatii’ naan jedhe.”
8 UManowa wasekhuleka kuThixo esithi, “Awu Nkosi, ngiyakucela, umuntu kaNkulunkulu omthumileyo kabuye futhi azesifundisa ukuthi umfana ozazalwa wondliwa njani.”
Maanoʼaanis, “Yaa Gooftaa, akka namichi Waaqaa kan ati gara keenyatti ergite sun ammas dhufee akka nu itti mucaa dhalatu sana guddisuu qabnu nu barsiisuuf akka nuuf ergitu sin kadhadha” jedhee Waaqayyoon kadhate.
9 UNkulunkulu wamuzwa uManowa, ingilosi kaNkulunkulu yafika njalo kowesifazane lowo esegangeni; kodwa umkakhe uManowa wayengekho.
Waaqnis Maanoʼaa dhagaʼe; ergamaan Waaqayyoo sunis utuu isheen lafa qotiisaa keessa teessuu gara dubartii sanaa deebiʼee dhufe; dhirsi ishee Maanoʼaan garuu ishee wajjin hin turre.
10 Owesifazane lowo wagijima wayatshela umkakhe wathi, “Ukhona lapha! Umuntu engimbone mhlalokhuyana!”
Dubartittiinis dhirsa isheetti himuuf ariifattee, “Kunoo! Namichi guyyaa kaan natti mulʼate sun as jira!” jette.
11 UManowa wasuka walandela umkakhe. Esefikile kulowomuntu, wathi, “Unguwe yini lowo owakhuluma lomkami?” Yena wathi, “Nginguye.”
Maanoʼaanis kaʼee niitii isaa duukaa buʼe. Innis yommuu namicha bira gaʼetti, “Namni niitii kootti dubbate siʼii?” jedheen. Innis, “Anuma” jedhe.
12 Ngakho uManowa wambuza wathi, “Lapho amazwi akho esegcwalisekile, umfana kuzamele aphile njani njalo lomsebenzi wakhe uzakuba ngowani?”
Kanaafuu Maanoʼaan, “Yeroo dubbiin kee raawwatamutti seerri mucichi ittiin jiraatuu fi hojiin inni hojjetu maali?” jedhee isa gaafate.
13 Ingilosi kaThixo yaphendula yathi, “Umkakho kumele enze konke engimtshele khona.
Ergamaan Waaqayyoos akkana jedhee deebise; “Niitiin kee waan ani itti hime hunda gochuu qabdi.
14 Kangadli lutho oluvela evinini, loba anathe iwayini loba okunye okunathwayo okulemvubelo loba adle ukudla okungcolileyo. Kumele enze konke engimlaye khona.”
Isheen waan muka wayinii irraa argamu tokko illee nyaachuu hin qabdu; daadhii wayinii yookaan dhugaatii nama macheessu dhuguu yookaan waan xuraaʼaa kam iyyuu nyaachuu hin qabdu. Isheen waan ani ishee ajaje hunda gochuu qabdi.”
15 UManowa wathi engilosini kaThixo, “Sifuna ukuba uhlale size sikuhlabele izinyane lembuzi.”
Maanoʼaanis ergamaa Waaqayyootiin, “Hamma nu korbeessa reʼee xinnaa isaa siif qopheessinutti nuu turi” jedhe.
16 Ingilosi kaThixo yaphendula yathi, “Loba lingangibamba ngamandla ukuba ngihlale, angiyikukudla ukudla kwenu. Kodwa nxa lilungisa umnikelo wokutshiswa, unikeleni kuThixo.” (UManowa kananzelelanga ukuthi kwakuyingilosi kaThixo.)
Ergamaan Waaqayyoo, “Ati na tursitu illee, ani nyaata kee kam iyyuu hin nyaadhu. Garuu yoo aarsaa gubamu qopheessuu feete, isa Waaqayyoof dhiʼeessi” jedheen. Maanoʼaan akka inni ergamaa Waaqayyoo taʼe hin beekne ture.
17 UManowa waseyibuza ingilosi kaThixo esithi, “Ungubani ibizo lakho, ukuze sikubonge lapho ilizwi lakho seligcwalisekile?”
Sana booddee Maanoʼaan ergamaa Waaqayyootiin, “Akka nu yeroo dubbiin ati dubbatte fiixaan baʼutti ulfina siif kenninuuf maqaan kee eenyu?” jedhee gaafate.
18 Yaphendula yathi, “Kungani ungibuza ibizo lami? Kaliqedisiseki.”
Innis, “Ati maaliif maqaa koo gaafatta? Inni akka malee dinqii dha” jedheen.
19 Lapho-ke uManowa wathatha izinyane lembuzi, ndawonye lomnikelo wamabele wakunikela kuThixo phezu kwedwala. Njalo uThixo wenza into emangalisayo uManowa lomkakhe bekhangele:
Maanoʼaanis korbeessa reʼee xinnaa isaa kennaa midhaanii wajjin geessee kattaa irratti Waaqayyoof aarsaa godhe. Utuma Maanoʼaa fi niitiin isaa ilaalanuus Waaqayyo waan dinqii godhe.
20 Kwathi ilangabi libhebha lisuka e-alithareni lisiya ezulwini, ingilosi kaThixo yenyukela phezulu iphakathi kwelangabi. Bebona lokhu uManowa lomkakhe bathi mbo phansi ngobuso.
Yeroo arrabni ibiddaa iddoo aarsaa irraa samiitti ol baʼetti ergamaan Waaqayyoo arraba ibiddaa keessaan ol baʼe. Maanoʼaa fi niitiin isaa waan kana arganii adda isaaniitiin lafatti gombifaman.
21 Kwathi ingilosi kaThixo ingasazibonakalisanga futhi kuManowa lomkakhe, uManowa wananzelela ukuthi kwakuyingilosi kaThixo.
Ergamaan Waaqayyoo garuu deebiʼee Maanoʼaa fi niitii isaatti hin mulʼanne. Maanoʼaanis akka inni ergamaa Waaqayyoo taʼe beeke.
22 Wasesithi kumkakhe, “Silahliwe, sizakufa. Sibone uNkulunkulu!”
Innis niitii isaatiin, “Nu Waaqa argineerraatii dhugumaan ni duuna!” jedhe.
23 Kodwa umkakhe waphendula wathi, “Aluba uThixo ubeqonde ukusibulala, ubengasoze amukele umnikelo wokutshiswa lomnikelo wamabele ezandleni zethu, loba asitshengise zonke lezizinto kumbe asitshele lokhu asitshele khona.”
Niitiin isaa garuu deebiftee akkana jetteen; “Waaqayyo utuu nu ajjeesuu barbaadee silaa aarsaa gubamuu fi kennaa midhaanii nu harkaa hin fudhatu ture; waan kana hundumas nutti hin argisiisu yookaan waan kana amma nutti hin himu ture.”
24 Owesifazane wazala umfana wamuthi nguSamsoni. Wakhula loThixo wambusisa,
Dubartiin sun ilma deesse; Saamsoon jettees isa moggaafte. Innis ni guddate; Waaqayyos isa eebbise.
25 loMoya kaThixo waqala ukuqubuka phakathi kwakhe eseseMahane Dani, phakathi kweZora le-Eshithawoli.
Hafuurri Waaqayyoos yeroo inni Zoraa fi Eshitaaʼol gidduu qubata Daan keessa turetti isa kakaasu jalqabe.
