< Abahluleli 11 >
1 Njalo uJefitha umGileyadi wayeliqhawe elilamandla, wayeyindodana yewule; uGileyadi wasezala uJefitha.
Teo henane zay t’Ieftake, nte-Gilade, fanalolahy, ana’ ty tsimirirañe; nasama’ i Gilade t’Ieftake.
2 UmkaGileyadi wasemzalela amadodana; kwathi amadodana omkakhe esekhulile amxotsha uJefitha, athi kuye: Kawuyikudla ilifa endlini kababa, ngoba uyindodana yomunye umfazi.
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.
3 UJefitha wasebalekela abafowabo, wahlala elizweni leTobi. Amadoda ayize asebuthana kuJefitha, aphuma laye.
Aa le nipotatsak’ amo rahalahi’eo nimoneñe an-tane Tobe ao t’Ieftake; vaho nirekets’ amy Ieftake ondaty tsy manjofake mpiharo fiavotse ama’e.
4 Kwasekusithi emva kwezinsuku abantwana bakoAmoni balwa loIsrayeli.
Ie añe le tondroke te nialy am’ Israele o ana’ i Amoneo.
5 Kwasekusithi lapho abantwana bakoAmoni besilwa loIsrayeli, abadala beGileyadi bahamba ukuyathatha uJefitha elizweni leTobi,
Ie amy zay, kanao nialy am’ Israele o ana’ i Amoneo, le nañitrike hangalake Ieftak’ an-tane Tobe añe o mpiaolo’ i Giladeo.
6 bathi kuJefitha: Woza ube ngumkhokheli wethu ukuze silwe labantwana bakoAmoni.
Le hoe iereo am’ Ieftake, Antao ho mpifelek’ anay, hialy amo ana’ i Amoneo.
7 Kodwa uJefitha wathi kubadala beGileyadi: Lina kalingizondanga yini, langixotsha endlini kababa? Pho, lizelani kimi khathesi nxa selisenhluphekweni?
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?
8 Abadala beGileyadi basebesithi kuJefitha: Ngakho khathesi siyabuyela kuwe ukuze uhambe lathi uyekulwa umelene labantwana bakoAmoni, ube yinhloko yethu phezu kwabo bonke abakhi beGileyadi.
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.
9 UJefitha wasesithi kubadala beGileyadi: Uba lingibuyisa ukulwa ngimelene labantwana bakoAmoni, iNkosi ibanikele phambi kwami, mina ngizakuba yinhloko yenu yini?
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?
10 Abadala beGileyadi basebesithi kuJefitha: INkosi iyezwa phakathi kwethu, uba singenzi njalo njengokwamazwi akho.
Le hoe o roae’ i Giladeo am’ Ieftake, Ho valolombeloñ’ añivon-tika t’Iehovà, toe hanoe’ay i nitaroñe’oy.
11 UJefitha wasehamba labadala beGileyadi, abantu basebemenza waba yinhloko lomkhokheli phezu kwabo. UJefitha wasekhuluma wonke amazwi akhe phambi kweNkosi eMizipa.
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.
12 UJefitha wasethuma izithunywa enkosini yabantwana bakoAmoni esithi: Ngilani lawe ukuthi uze kimi ukulwa elizweni lami?
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?
13 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.
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.
14 UJefitha wasephinda ethuma izithunywa futhi enkosini yabantwana bakoAmoni,
Nañitrik’ amy mpanjaka’ o ana’ i Amoneoy indraike t’Ieftake,
15 wathi kuye: Utsho njalo uJefitha: UIsrayeli kalithathanga ilizwe lakoMowabi lelizwe labantwana bakoAmoni,
nanao ty hoe, Hoe t’Ieftake; Tsy tinava’ Israele ty tane’ i Moabe ndra ty tane’ o ana’ i Amoneo.
16 kodwa ekwenyukeni kwabo besuka eGibhithe uIsrayeli wahamba edabula enkangala waya eLwandle oluBomvu, wafika eKadeshi.
Fa ie niakatse i Mitsraime añe, naho nañavelo am-pirangàñe i ratraratray sikal’ amy riake Menay t’Israele, vaho nivotrake e Kadese eo;
17 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.
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.
18 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.
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.
19 UIsrayeli wasethuma izithunywa kuSihoni inkosi yamaAmori, inkosi yeHeshiboni; uIsrayeli wathi kuye: Ake sedlule elizweni lakho siye endaweni yami.
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.
20 Kodwa uSihoni kamthembanga uIsrayeli ukuthi adlule emngceleni wakhe; kodwa uSihoni wabutha bonke abantu bakhe, wamisa inkamba eJahazi, walwa loIsrayeli.
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.
21 Kodwa iNkosi, uNkulunkulu kaIsrayeli, yanikela uSihoni labo bonke abantu bakhe esandleni sikaIsrayeli, babatshaya. Ngakho uIsrayeli wadla ilifa lelizwe lonke lamaAmori, abahlali balelolizwe.
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.
22 Badla ilifa layo yonke imingcele yamaAmori kusukela eArinoni kuze kube seJaboki, njalo kusukela enkangala kuze kube seJordani.
Le fanaña’ iareo ze hene tane’ o nte-Amoreo boak’ amy Arnoney pak’ am’ Iabokey vaho boak’am-patrambey añe pak’ am’ Iordaney.
23 Khathesi-ke iNkosi, uNkulunkulu kaIsrayeli, yawaxotsha elifeni amaAmori phambi kwabantu bayo uIsrayeli; kanti wena uzakudla ilifa lalo yini?
Ie amy zay rinoa’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’ Israele aolo’ ondati’e Israeleo mb’eo o nte-Amoreo, aa vaho ho fanaña’ areo hao zay?
24 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.
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.
25 Pho-ke wena ungcono yini okwedlula uBalaki indodana kaZipori inkosi yakoMowabi? Wake waxabana loIsrayeli; kumbe wake walwa labo yini;
Likoare’o hao t’i Balak’ ana’ i Tsipore, mpanjaka’ i Moabe? Nitamea’e hao t’Israele? Naname iereo an’ aly hao?
26 lapho uIsrayeli esehlala eHeshiboni lemizaneni yayo, leAroweri lemizaneni yayo, lakuyo yonke imizi esekhunjini lweArinoni, iminyaka engamakhulu amathathu? Kungani-ke ungayophulanga ngalesosikhathi?
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?
27 Ngakho mina kangonanga kuwe, kodwa wena wenza okubi kimi ngokulwa lami; iNkosi uMahluleli kahlulele lamuhla phakathi kwabantwana bakoIsrayeli labantwana bakoAmoni.
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.
28 Kodwa inkosi yabantwana bakoAmoni kayilalelanga amazwi kaJefitha awathumela kuyo.
Fe tsy hinao’ i mpanjaka’ o ana’ i Amoneoy i saontsy nihitrifa’ Ieftakey.
29 UMoya weNkosi wasesiza phezu kukaJefitha, wedlula eGileyadi leManase, wedlula eMizipa yeGileyadi; esuka eMizipa wedlulela kubantwana bakoAmoni.
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.
30 UJefitha wafunga isifungo eNkosini wathi: Uba uzanikela lokunikela abantwana bakoAmoni esandleni sami,
Le nanao fanta amy Iehovà t’Ieftak’ ami’ty hoe: Naho toe hatolo’o an-tañako o ana’ i Amoneo,
31 kuzakuthi loba yikuphi okuphuma eminyango yendlu yami ukungihlangabeza ekubuyeni kwami ngokuthula ngivela kubantwana bakoAmoni, kuzakuba ngokweNkosi, ngizakunikela kube ngumnikelo wokutshiswa.
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.
32 Ngakho uJefitha wasesedlulela ebantwaneni bakoAmoni ukulwa emelene labo; iNkosi yasibanikela esandleni sakhe.
Aa le nitsake mb’ amo ana’ i Amoneo mb’eo haname iareo t’Ieftake; vaho natolo’ Iehovà am-pità’e.
33 Wasebatshaya kusukela eAroweri uze ufike eMinithi, imizi engamatshumi amabili, kuze kube seAbeli-Keramimi, ukutshaya okukhulukazi. Ngokunjalo abantwana bakoAmoni behliselwa phansi phambi kwabantwana bakoIsrayeli.
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.
34 UJefitha wasefika eMizipa endlini yakhe. Khangela-ke, indodakazi yakhe yaphuma ukumhlangabeza, ilezigujana, lemigido; yayiyiyo yodwa eyakhe; ngaphandle kwayo wayengelandodana lendodakazi.
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.
35 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.
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.
36 Yasisithi kuye: Baba, uvulile umlomo wakho eNkosini, yenza kimi njengalokho okuphume emlonyeni wakho, lokhu iNkosi ikuphindisele ezitheni zakho, ebantwaneni bakoAmoni.
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.
37 Yasisithi kuyise: Akungenzele linto: Ngiyekela inyanga ezimbili, ngiye ngehle ezintabeni, ngililele ubuntombi bami, mina labangane bami.
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.
38 Wasesithi: Hamba. Waseyiyekela ihamba inyanga ezimbili. Yasihamba, yona labangane bayo, yalilela ubuntombi bayo ezintabeni.
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.
39 Kwasekusithi ekupheleni kwenyanga ezimbili yabuyela kuyise, owenza kuyo isifungo sakhe asifungayo; yona kayiyazanga indoda. Kwasekusiba ngumkhuba koIsrayeli:
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,
40 Iminyaka ngeminyaka amadodakazi akoIsrayeli ayehamba ukuyakhumbula indodakazi kaJefitha umGileyadi insuku ezine ngomnyaka.
te mb’eo boa-taoñe o anak’ ampela’ Israeleo hirovetse i anak’ ampela’ Ieftake nte-Giladey, efatse andro ami’ ty taoñe.
