< Amanani 21 >
1 Kwathi inkosi yase-Aradi engumKhenani eyayihlala eNegebi isizwa ukuthi abako-Israyeli babesiza behamba ngomgwaqo beqonde e-Atharimi, yabahlasela abako-Israyeli yaze yathumba abanye babo.
A LOHE ae la ke alii o Arada ka Kanaana, e noho ana ma ke kukuluhema, e hele mai ana ka Iseraela ma ke ala e hiki ai i na wahi ona, alaila, kaua mai la ia i ka Iseraela, a lawe pio aku la i kekahi poe o lakou.
2 Ngakho u-Israyeli wenza lesisifungo kuThixo wathi: “Nxa unganikela lababantu ezandleni zethu, sizachithiza amadolobho abo nya.”
Hoohiki aku la ka Iseraela ia Iehova, i aku la, Ina paha e haawi mai oe i keia poe kanaka iloko o ko'u lima, alaila e luku loa aku no au i na kulanakauhale o lakou.
3 UThixo walalela ukuncenga kwabako-Israyeli wasenikela amaKhenani kubo. Abako-Israyeli bawaqothula amaKhenani bachithiza kanye lamadolobho awo; ngakho indawo leyo yabizwa ngokuthi yiHoma.
Hoolohe mai la o Iehova i ka leo o ka Iseraela, a hoolilo mai la i ka poe Kanaana: a luku loa aku la lakou ia lakou la, a me na kulanakauhale o lakou; a kapa aku la ia i ka inoa o ia wahi o Horema.
4 Bahamba besuka entabeni yaseHori ngendlela eqonda oLwandle oluBomvu, ukuze baceze ilizwe lase-Edomi. Kodwa besendleleni abantu basebenengekile sebephelelwe yikubekezela;
Hele aku la lakou mai ke kuahiwi o Hora aku, ma ke alanui o ke Kaiula, e puni i ka aina o Edoma: a ua pau ke aho o na kanaka no ke alanui.
5 bakhuluma kubi besola uNkulunkulu kanye loMosi, bathi, “Lasikhuphelani na eGibhithe ukuze sizefela enkangala? Akulasinkwa! Akulamanzi! Futhi lalokhu ukudla kwenu okubi siyakuzonda.”
Olelo ino aku la na kanaka i ke Akua, a ia Mose, No ke aha la olua i kai mai nei ia makou mailoko mai o Aigupita e make ma ka waonahele? no ka mea, aohe berena, aole hoi ho wai; a ke hoopailua nei ko makou naau i keia ai mama.
6 Ngakho uThixo wasebathumela izinyoka ezazilobuhlungu obesabekayo kakhulu, zabaluma abantu bako-Israyeli abanengi bafa.
Hoouna mai la o Iehova i na nahesa wela iwaena o na kanaka, a nahu mai la lakou i na kanaka; a he nui na kanaka o ka Iseraela i make.
7 Abantu baya kuMosi bathi, “Sonile ngokukhuluma kwethu kubi ngoThixo langokukhuluma kwethu ngawe. Akukhuleke ukuthi uThixo asuse izinyoka lezi phakathi kwethu.” Ngakho wabakhulekela abantu.
No ia mea, hele mai la na kanaka io Mose la, i mai la, Ua haua hewa makou; no ka mea, ua olelo ino aku makou ia Iehova a ia oe: e pule aku oe ia Iehova, e lawe aku ia i na nahesa mai o makou aku nei. A pule aku la o Mose no na kanaka.
8 UThixo wathi kuMosi, “Yenza inyoka yethusi uyiphanyeke esigodweni; loba ngubani olunyiweyo angakhangela kuyo uzaphila.”
Olelo mai la o Iehova ia Mose, E hana oe nau i nahesa wela, a e kau aku ia maluna o ka laau, a o kela mea keia mea i nahuia, i ka wa e nana aku ai oia ia mea, e ola no ia.
9 Ngakho uMosi wenza inyoka yethusi wayiphanyeka esigodweni. Kwakusithi lowo olunywe yinyoka angakhangela inyoka yethusi aphile.
A hana iho la o Mose i nahesa keleawe, a kau aku la ia maluna o ka laau; a o ke kanaka i nahuia i ka nahesa wela, i ka wa i nana aku ai oia i ka nahesa keleawe, ua ola ia.
10 Abako-Israyeli basuka baqhubeka baze bayamisa izihonqo zabo e-Obhothi.
A hele aku la na mamo a Iseraela, a hoomoana iho la ma Obota.
11 Basuka njalo e-Obhothi bayamisa izihonqo zabo e-Iye-Abharimi, enkangala eyayimalungana leMowabi ngokuya ngempumalanga.
A hele lakou mai Obota aku, a hoomoana iho la ma Iieabarima, i ka waonahele ma ke alo o Moaba, ma ka hikina o ka la.
12 Besuka lapho baqhubeka ngohambo baze bayamisa izihonqo zabo esigodini saseZeredi.
Mailaila aku lakou i hele ai, a hoomoana iho la ma ke kahawai o Zareda.
13 Basuka lapho bayamisa izihonqo zabo eduze le-Arinoni esenkangala eqhelela elizweni lama-Amori. I-Arinoni isemngceleni welaseMowabi, phakathi laphakathi kweMowabi kanye lama-Amori.
Mailaila aku lakou i hele ai, a hoomoana iho la ma hela aoao o Arenona, ma ka waonahele e hele mai ana mailoko mai o na palena o ka Amora; no ka mea, o Arenona oia ka palena o Moaba, mawaena o Moaba a me ka Amora.
14 Kungakho uGwalo lweziMpi zikaThixo lusithi: “Lokho akwenza oLwandle oLubomvu lakwenza emifuleni yeWahebhi eseSufa lemifuleni yase-Arinoni
Nolaila, ua olelo ia maloko o ka buke o na kaua a Iehova, ma Vaheba ma Supa, a ma na kahawai o Arenona,
15 lamawa ezindonga ehlela endaweni yase-Ari lasekela umngcele weMowabi.”
A ma ke kahe ana o na kahawai, ka mea hele ma ka noho ana o Ara, a moe iho ma ka palena o Moaba.
16 Besuka lapho baqhubeka baze bayafika eBheri, emthonjeni lapho uThixo athi kuMosi, “Buthanisa abantu ngibanike amanzi.”
Mailaila aku lakou a Beera; oia ka punawai kahi a Iehova i olelo mai ai ia Mose, E hoakoakoa i na kanaka, a e haawi aku no wau i wai no lakou.
17 Ngakho abako-Israyeli bahlabela ingoma le ethi: “Mpompoza, wemthombo! Hlabelelani ngawo,
Alaila mele aku la ka Iseraela i keia mele, E huahuai mai, e ka punawai; E mele aku oukou ia ia:
18 ngomthombo owenjiwa ngamakhosana, owenjiwa yizikhulu zabantu, izikhulu ezilentonga zobukhosi kanye lezinduku.” Basuka-ke enkangala bayafika eMathana,
O na luna ka i kohi iho i ka punawai, O na'lii o na kanaka i eli iho ia, Mamuli o ka Lunakanawai, me na kookoo o lakou. A mai ka waonahele aku lakou a Matana;
19 besuka eMathana baya eNahaliyeli, besuka eNahaliyeli, baya eBhamothi,
A mai Matana aku a Nahaliela; a mai Nahaliela aku a Bamota:
20 kwathi besuka eBhamothi baqonda esigodini eMowabi, lapho isiqongo sentaba yasePhisiga esikhangele elizweni elilugwadule.
A mai Bamota aku lakou a i ke awawa ma ke kula o Moaba, malalo o ka puu o Pisega, ma ka aoao e huli ana i ka waonahele.
21 U-Israyeli wathumela izithunywa kuSihoni inkosi yama-Amori wathi:
Hoouna aku la ka Iseraela i na elele io Sihona la ke alii o ka Amora, i aku la,
22 “Sivumele sidabule elizweni lakho. Kasiyikuphambukela loba lakuliphi icele ukuze singene loba kuwaphi amasimu akho kumbe isivini, loba ukunatha amanzi emthonjeni loba yiwuphi. Sizazihambela nje ngomgwaqo omkhulu weNkosi size sedlule elizweni lakho.”
E ae mai oe e hele aku wau mawaena o kou aina: aole makou e kipa ma na mahinaai, aole hoi ma na pawaina: aole makou e inu i ka wai o ka punawai; e hele aku no makou ma ke alanui o ke alii, a hala aku la makou mai kou mau palena aku.
23 Kodwa uSihoni kavumanga ukuthi u-Israyeli adabule elizweni lakhe. USihoni waqoqa ibutho lakhe waphuma waqonda enkangala ukuyahlasela u-Israyeli. Wathi esefikile eJahazi walwa lo-Israyeli.
Aole no i ae mai o Sihona e hele aku ka Iseraela mawaena o kona mau palena: aku, hoakoakoa ae la o Sihona i kona poe kanaka a pau, a hele aku la iloko o ka waonahele e ku e i ka Iseraela: a hele mai la ia i Iahaza, a kaua mai la i ka Iseraela.
24 Kodwa u-Israyeli wamnqoba ngenkemba, wambhubhisa njalo wamthathela ilizwe lakhe kusukela e-Arinoni kusiya eJabhoki, kusiyafika elizweni lama-Amoni kuphela, ngoba umngcele walo wawuvikelwe ngemithangala.
Luku aku la ka Iseraela la ia i ka pahikaua, a komo aku la i kona aina mai Arenona a Iaboka, a hiki i na mamo a Amona: no ka mea, ua paa ka palena o na mamo a Amona.
25 U-Israyeli wathatha wonke amadolobho ama-Amori wahlala kuwo, kwakugoqela iHeshibhoni kanye leziqinti ezaziyigombolozele.
Lawe pio ae la ka Iseraela i keia mau kulanakauhale a pau: a noho iho la ka Iseraela ma na kulanakauhale a pau o ka Amora, i Hesebona, a i na kauhale a pau o ia wahi.
26 IHeshibhoni kwakulidolobho likaSihoni inkosi yama-Amori, owayelwe lenkosi yamaMowabi eyayikade ibusa khona wayinqoba wayithathela ilizwe layo lonke kuze kuyefika e-Arinoni.
No ka mea, o Hesebona ke kulanakauhale o Sihona ke alii o ka Amora, nana i kaua aku mamua i ke alii o Moaba, a lawe ae la i kona aina a pau mai kona lima aku, a hiki i Arenona.
27 Yingakho izimbongi zisithi: “Wozani eHeshibhoni; kayivuselelwe yakhiwe njalo; akuthi idolobho likaSihoni livuselelwe.
No ia mea, i mai la na hakumele, E hele oukou iloko o Hesebona, e hana hou ia Ke kulanakauhale o Sihona e hookumuia:
28 Umlilo wavutha eHeshibhoni ilangabi lavela edolobheni likaSihoni. Laqothula i-Ari laseMowabi, abantu basemiqolweni yase-Arinoni.
No ka mea, mai Hesebona i hele aku ai ke ahi, He lapalapa ahi ma ke kulanakauhale o Sihona aku: Ua hoopau oia ia Ara o Moaba, A me na haku o na wahi kiekie o Arenona.
29 Maye kuwe, Mowabi! Selibhujisiwe lina, Oh bantu baseKhemoshi! Usedele amadodana akhe njengeziphepheli lamadodakazi njengabathunjiweyo bethunjwa nguSihoni inkosi yama-Amori.
Auwe oe, e Moaba! ua make no oe! E na kanaka o Kemosa! Ua haawi aku ia i kana mau keikikane i pakele, A me kana mau kaikamahine, i poe pio No ke alii o ka Amora, no Sihona.
30 Kodwa thina sibehlule; iHeshibhoni siyitshabalalisile kuze kuyefika eDibhoni. Sibachithile kwaze kwaba seNofa, eqhelela eMedebha.”
Ua pana pua aku makou ia lakou; Ua lukuia o Hesebona a hiki i Dibona, Ua hooneoneo makou a hiki aku i Nopa, A hiki hoi i Medeba.
31 Ngakho u-Israyeli wahlala elizweni lama-Amori.
A noho iho la ka Iseraela ma ka aina o ka Amora.
32 Ngemva kokuba uMosi esethumele inhloli eJazeri, abako-Israyeli bathumba iziqinti eziseduze njalo baxotsha ama-Amori ayehlala khona.
A hoouna aku la o Mose e makaikai ia Iaazera, a komo lakou i na kulanakauhale o ia wahi, a hookuke aku la i ka Amora malaila.
33 Basebephenduka bahamba ngomgwaqo oya eBhashani. U-Ogi inkosi yaseBhashani kanye lebutho lakhe lonke baphuma ukuyahlangana labako-Israyeli ukubahlasela e-Edreyi.
Haliu ae la lakou, a pii aku la ma ke alanui o Basana: a hele mai la o Oga ke alii o Basana e ku e mai ia lakou, oia a me kona poe kanaka a pau, i ke kaua ma Ederei.
34 UThixo wathi kuMosi, “Ungamesabi, ngoba sengimnikele kuwe lamabutho akhe wonke kanye lelizwe lakhe. Menze konke owakwenza kuSihoni inkosi yama-Amori, owayebusa eHeshibhoni.”
Olelo mai la o Iehova ia Mose, Mai makau oe ia ia; no ka mea, ua haawi aku no wau ia ia iloko o kou lima, me kona kanaka a pau, a me kona aina: a e hana aku oe ia ia me kau i hana aku ai ia Sihona ke alii o ka Amora i noho ma Hesebona.
35 Ngakho bambulala ndawonye lamadodana akhe kanye lebutho lakhe lonke, kakho loyedwa owaphephayo. Basebethatha ilizwe lakhe.
A luku aku la lakou ia ia, me kana mau keikikane, a me kona poe kanaka a pau, aole i koe kekahi e ola ana nona: a komo aku la lakou i kona aina.
