2 Kodwa wayengathembekanga kuye. Wamtshiya wabuyela endlini kayise eBhethilehema, koJuda. Esehlale khona okwezinyanga ezine,
Ahinlah amanu hitoh akina-lhonin ahileh Bethlehem ma apa in'ah ana kile kittan ahi. Lha li alhin jouvin,
3 indoda yamlandela ukuyamncenga ukuba abuye. Indoda yayilenceku yayo labobabhemi ababili. Umfazi wamngenisa endlini kayise, njalo kwathi uyise embona wamamukela ngokuthokoza.
Ajipa chu Bethlehem jon dingin akipat doh in amanu chu gajol lungdam’a hin kile puikit agot ahi. Aman sangan kopkhat toh alhachapa chu ana kipuijin ahi. Ama ajinu pa in agalhun chun ajinu pa chun ngailutna neitah in anasangin ahi.
4 Uyisezala, uyise wentombi, wamncenga ukuba ahlale; ngakho wahlala laye insuku ezintathu, esidla enatha, njalo elala khona.
Anupa pachun nichomkhat beh umdingin ana ngehin ahi. Hijeh chun, ama chu nithum anichongin, aneuvin, adonnun chuleh ajan geh un ahi.
5 Ngelanga lesine bavuka ekuseni, walungiselela ukusuka, kodwa uyise wentombi wathi kumkhwenyana wakhe, “Qinisa umzimba wakho ngongakudla; ubusuhamba.”
Ni li channi chun amapa chu matah in athouvin cheding akigotan, ahinla anupa pachun amapa komma chun “Nache kah un bu themkhat beh gahne kitnun,” atin ahi.
6 Ngakho bobabili bahlala phansi badla banatha. Emva kwalokho uyise wentombi wathi, “Ake ulale ubusuku balamuhla uzithokozise.”
Hijeh chun amani jong atoukit lhonnin themkhat anelhon tan ahi. Hijouchun numeinu pachun hiti hin ahin seikit in, “Jankhat beh gehkit inlang kicholdo kit’un ati.”
7 Kwathi umuntu lowo evuka ukuba ahambe, uyisezala wamncenga, ngakho walala khona ngalobobusuku.
Levi pachu akipatdoh in achegotan ahileh anupa pan aum kit nadiuvin angeh teitei jengin ahileh ajona in anom’in jankhat ageh kittai.
8 Ekuseni ngosuku lwesihlanu, wathi evuka ukuba ahambe, uyise wentombi wathi, “Phumula. Hlala kuze kube ngemva kwemini.” Ngakho bobabili badla ndawonye.
Ni nga channin amachu matah in athouvin chedingin akigotai, ahin numeinu pachun, “Nehthei themkhat beh nenlang nilhah lamleh chenauvin nate” tin ahin seikit’in ahi. Hichun amaho chun nehkhomna aneikit’un ahi.
9 Kwathi lapho umuntu lowo, lomkakhe weceleni kanye lenceku yakhe belungiselela ukusuka, uyisezala, uyise wentombi wathi, “Khangela, sekuzakuhlwa. Lala lapha; ilanga selizatshona. Hlala uzithokozise. Kusasa ekuseni kakhulu uzavuka uthathe indlela yakho yokuya ekhaya.”
Hichejou chun amapa le athaikemnu chuleh alhachapa chu che dingin akigo tauvin ahi, anupapan aseijin, “Ven tuhi nilhah lang hiding ahitai, tujan gehkit inlang nomtah in kicholdon lang jing tengleh matah in athouvin natin na-inlam u jon tauvin nate,” ati.
10 Kodwa umuntu lowo engasafuni ukulala obunye ubusuku lapho, wasuka waqonda eJebusi (leyo yiJerusalema), labobabhemi bakhe ababili ababebotshelwe izihlalo kanye lomkakhe weceleni.
Ahinlah tuphat vang'in chetei agotan ahi. Hijeh chun asangan teni leh athaikemnu chu akipuijin Jebus (Hichu Jerusalem) lang ahin jontauvin ahi.
11 Kwathi sebebanga eJebusi ilanga laselitshona, inceku yathi enkosini yayo, “Uyabona, kasime kulelidolobho lamaJebusi silale.”
Jebus anaiphat’in agei thimlheh tan alhachapa chun akom’ah chun “Jebus khopia hin kinga pa uhitin, jan geh taote” ati.
12 Inkosi yayo yathi, “Hayi. Kasiyikungena edolobheni elilabantu abangasibako-Israyeli. Sizaqhubeka siye eGibhiya.”
Apakaipan “Hithei ponte Israel mi um nalou gamchom mite khopia igeh theilou diu ahi,” hiche sang chun Gibeah lam ana jonsuh taohite.
13 Wengeza wathi, “Kasambeni, sizame ukuyafika eGibhiya loba eRama, silale kwenye yalezizindawo.”
Hungin Gibeah ahilouleh Ramah lhuntei go uhitin hiche khopiho khatpen pennahin gehnao hite” ati.
14 Ngakho baqhubeka, ilanga latshona sebebanga eGibhiya koBhenjamini.
Hitichun achetaove. Gibeah agalhun uchun nisalhum ding kon ahitai, Gibeah chu Benjamin gamsunga khopi khat ahi.
15 Bema lapho ukuba balale khona. Bahamba bayahlala egcekeni ledolobho, kodwa kakho owabangenisa endlini yakhe ukuba balale khona.
Hilai mun achun akinga uvin jan-geh ding in akigo tauvin ahi. Koiman ainna lhunsah dinga akoulou jeh uchun hiche khopi lamlen khatna chun akicholnga tauvin ahi.
16 Ngalokhokuhlwa ixhegu laselizweni lamaqaqa ko-Efrayimi, elalihlala eGibhiya (abantu bakuleyondawo babengabakoBhenjamini), lafika livela emsebenzini walo emasimini.
Hiche janchun tehse alouva anatohna akon a-inlam hinjonkhat aumin ahi. Amachu Ephraim thinglhang akonna Gibeah a hung kichaolut ahin, hiche khopia chenghohi Benjamin phungmi ahiuve.
17 Selikhangele labona isihambi egcekeni ledolobho, ixhegu labuza lathi, “Liya ngaphi? Livela ngaphi?”
Amaho chu khopi lamsom’a anatou chu amu phatnin “Hoiya hungkon hoilang jonding nahiuvam?” tin anadongin ahi.
18 Yena waphendula wathi, “Siphakathi kohambo lwethu sivela eBhethilehema koJuda siya esiqintini esikhatshana elizweni lamaqaqa ko-Efrayimi lapho engihlala khona. Kade ngiseBhethilehema koJuda kodwa khathesi sengisiya endlini kaThixo. Akulamuntu ongingenise endlini yakhe.
Amapan adonbutnin, “Keiho hi Judah gam Bethlehem’a konna Ephraim thinglhang gamgilla um ka in-mun u jonding kahiuve. Ahinla koiman a-in na lhungding in eikou pouvin ahi.
19 Silotshani lokudla kwabobabhemi bethu lesinkwa kanye lewayini lethu thina zinceku zakho, mina lencekukazi yakho kanye lejaha esilalo. Kasisweli lutho.”
Keihon kangaichat diu jouse kanei naove, sangan nehding changpol kaneijun, keiho nehding changlhah le theitui lhingset’in kanei naovin ahi” atiuve.
20 Ixhegu lathi, “Lamukelekile endlini yami. Ngizalinika konke elikuswelayo. Kodwa lingalali egcekeni.”
Tehsepu chun, “Kei kommah geh tauvin, keiman nangaichat diu jouse nape naovinge, amavang hiche lamsom’a vang hin jan-geh hihbeh un,” ati.
21 Ngakho lamngenisa endlini yalo, lanika labobabhemi bakhe ukudla. Sebegeze inyawo zabo, badla banatha.
Hiti chun a-in na apuijin asangan teni jong chu avahtan ahi. Amahon akeng akisilluva an aneh uva adonjou phat’un,
22 Besazitika, abanye babantu abaxhwalileyo bakulelodolobho bahanqa indlu leyo. Batshaya isivalo, bamemeza ixhegu elalingumnikazi wendlu besithi, “Mkhuphele phandle umuntu ongene endlini ukuze siye emacansini laye.”
Nomsatah a agah umpet laitah un, khopi sunga konchun miphalou honkhat’in inchu ahin umkhum un, kotchu ahin chum’un tehsepu chu ahinsap thouvin, “na in na lhungpa chu hinpui doh in keihon numei bolla kaboldiu ahi” atiuvin ahi.
23 Umnikazi wendlu waya phandle wathi kubo, “Hayi, bangane bami, lingenzi okubi kangaka. Njengoba umuntu eyisethekeli sami, lingenzi into elihlazo kanje.
Tehsepu chu amaho to kihou dingin apotdoh in aga kihoupin “Ahipoi sopite ho, hitobang thilse chu bolpou hite, ajeh chu amapahi ka-in na lhung kamaljin ahibouve, chutobang thilmelse tah chu bolpoute,
24 Khangelani, nansi indodakazi yami eyintombi egcweleyo, kanye lomfazi weceleni walindoda. Ngizabaletha phandle kini, lingabasebenzisa lenze kubo konke elikufisayo. Kodwa lingenzi ihlazo elinjalo kule indoda.”
Veuvin, kachanu nungah thengtah khat leh hiche mipa thaikemnu hi hinpedoh inge nalo lo lotauvin, ahinla hiche mipa chunga vang hin chutobang thilmelse chu bol hihbeh un” ati.
25 Kodwa abantu labo kabamlalelanga. Ngakho indoda leyo yathatha umkayo weceleni yamusa phandle kubo, bamdlova njalo bamphatha kubi ubusuku bonke, kwathi emadabukakusa bamyekela wahamba.
Ahinlah amahon angaideh pouvin ahi. Hijeh chun Levi pachun athaikemnu chu kotpamma asondoh in ahileh, khopi mitechun amanu chu khovah lhah tokah in kichepnan aneitauvin ahi. Khovah then then chun amanu chu alhakang bep’un ahi.
26 Ekuseni owesifazane lowo waya endlini lapho umkakhe ayehlezi khona, wawela emnyango, walala khonapho kwaze kwakhanya.
Khovah lhahchun amanu chu ajipa lhunna a chun ahung kilen kotbul aphahchun alhulhop tan khovah lhah geijin ana kijamtan ahi.
27 Esevukile umkakhe ekuseni, wavula umnyango wendlu waphuma ukuba aqhubeke ngohambo lwakhe, wabona umkakhe weceleni ewele emnyango wendlu, izandla zakhe zisentubeni yomnyango.
Ajipan gahpot dinga kotchu ahin honleh athaikemnu chu kotbulla anakijam jengin akhut teni chu tolla anakiphatho jengin ahi.
28 Wathi kuye, “Vuka; kasihambe.” Kodwa kamphendulanga. Ngakho umuntu lowo wambeka phezu kukababhemi wakhe wasuka waya emzini wakhe.
Aman “thouvin chetate” atileh adonbut tapon ahi. Hitichun atahsa chu sangan chungah ajamin ain geijin apoluttai.
29 Esefikile ekhaya wathatha ingqamu waquma umkakhe weceleni iziqayiqa ezilitshumi lambili wazithumela kuzozonke izigaba zako-Israyeli.
Ain alhunphatnin, chemkhat alan athaikemnu hub oh somle bohni ason bohkhat cheh chu Israel gampumpia phungkhat cheh chu athot’in ahi.
30 Umuntu wonke owakubonayo lokho wathi, “Into enje kayikaze ibonakale loba yenziwe, selokhu u-Israyeli waphuma eGibhithe. Cabangani ngakho! Likuhlole! Litsho okungenziwa!”
Hiche mujouse chun, “Israelten Egypt ahin dalhah uva pat tuni chan geijin hitobang thilmelse hi sohkha hih laijin ahi chule mujong akimu kha hih laiye, hichepi hi gel temun, tuahi ipi ibolluva i-ilodiu hitam? Koiham aseithei ding’ah?” akiti tauvin ahi.
