1 Ngalezonsuku kwakungelankosi koIsrayeli; langalezonsuku isizwe sakoDani sazidingela ilifa lokuhlala, ngoba kuze kube ngalolosuku babengawelwanga yilifa phakathi kwezizwe zakoIsrayeli.
Xu künlǝrdǝ Israilda ⱨeq padixaⱨ bolmidi; xundaⱪla xu künlǝrdǝ Danlarning ⱪǝbilisi ɵzlirigǝ olturaⱪlixix üqün jay izdǝwatⱪanidi, qünki xu küngiqǝ ular Israil ⱪǝbililiri arisida qǝk taxlinip bekitilgǝn miras zeminƣa erixmigǝnidi.
2 Abantwana bakoDani basebethuma amadoda amahlanu avela kusendo lwabo esuka emaphethelweni abo, amaqhawe, evela eZora leEshitawoli, ukuhlola ilizwe lokuliphenya. Basebesithi kuwo: Hambani liphenye ilizwe. Asefika entabeni yakoEfrayimi, endlini kaMika, alala khona.
Xuning bilǝn Danlar pütkül jǝmǝtidin Zoreaⱨ wǝ Əxtaolda olturuxluⱪ bǝx palwanni zeminni qarlap kelixkǝ ǝwǝtti wǝ ularƣa tapilap: — Silǝr berip zeminni qarlap kelinglar, dedi. Ular sǝpǝr ⱪilip Əfraim taƣliⱪ yurtiƣa kelip Mikaⱨning ɵyigǝ qüxüp u yǝrdǝ ⱪondi.
3 Esendlini kaMika wona alazi ilizwi lejaha umLevi; asephendukela khona athi kuye: Ngubani owakuletha lapha? Njalo wenzani lapha? Njalo ulani lapha?
Ular Mikaⱨning ɵyining yenida turƣinida Lawiy yigitning awazini tonup, uning ⱪexiƣa kirip uningdin: — Seni kim bu jayƣa elip kǝldi? Bu yǝrdǝ nemǝ ix ⱪilisǝn? Bu jayda nemigǝ erixting? — dǝp soridi.
4 Wasesithi kiwo: UMika ungenzele kanje lakanje; ungiqhatshile, sengingumpristi wakhe.
U ularƣa jawabǝn: — Mikaⱨ manga mundaⱪ-mundaⱪ ⱪilip, meni yallap ɵzigǝ kaⱨin ⱪildi, dedi.
5 Asesithi kuye: Ake ubuze uNkulunkulu ukuze sazi ukuthi indlela yethu esihamba ngayo izaphumelela yini.
Buni anglap ular uningƣa: — Undaⱪ bolsa bizning mangƣan sǝpirimizning onguxluⱪ bolidiƣan-bolmaydiƣanliⱪini bilmikimiz üqün, Hudadin sorap bǝrgin, — dedi.
6 Umpristi wasesithi kibo: Hambani ngokuthula. Indlela yenu elihamba ngayo iphambi kweNkosi.
Kaⱨin ularƣa: — Hatirjǝm beriweringlar. Mangƣan yolunglar Pǝrwǝrdigarning aldididur, — dedi.
7 Asehamba lawomadoda amahlanu, ayafika eLayishi, abona abantu abaphakathi kwayo, behlezi bonwabile, ngokwendlela yamaSidoni, belokuthula, bengethuki lutho, kwakungelamahluleli elizweni ukubathiba, babekhatshana lamaSidoni, bengasebenzelani lamuntu.
Xuning bilǝn bu bǝx adǝm qiⱪip, Laix degǝn jayƣa yetip kǝldi. Ular u yǝrdiki hǝlⱪning tinq-aman yaxawatⱪinini, turmuxining Zidoniylarning ɵrp-adǝtliri boyiqǝ ikǝnlikini, hatirjǝmlik wǝ raⱨǝt iqidǝ turuwatⱪinini kɵrdi; xu zeminda ularni har ⱪilƣuqi ⱨeqⱪandaⱪ ⱨoⱪuⱪdar yoⱪ idi; ular Zidoniylardin yiraⱪta turatti, xundaⱪla baxⱪilar bilǝnmu ⱨeqⱪandaⱪ bardi-kǝldi ⱪilixmaytti.
8 Asefika kubafowabo eZora leEshitawoli, abafowabo basebesithi kuwo: Lithini?
[Bǝx palwan] Zoreaⱨ wǝ Əxtaolƣa ɵz ⱪerindaxlirining ⱪexiƣa ⱪaytip kǝldi. Ⱪerindaxliri ulardin: — Nemǝ hǝwǝr elip kǝldinglar? — dǝp soridi.
9 Asesithi: Sukumani asenyuke simelane labo, ngoba sibonile ilizwe, khangelani-ke, lihle kakhulu; pho lina lithule? Lingavilaphi ukuyangena ukudla ilifa lelizwe.
Ular jawabǝn: — Biz ⱪopup ularƣa ⱨujum ⱪilayli! Qünki biz xu zeminni qarlap kǝlduⱪ, mana, u intayin yahxi bir yurt ikǝn. Əmdi nemixⱪa ⱪimir ⱪilmay jim olturisilǝr? Əmdi dǝrⱨal berip, u yurtni elixⱪa ǝzmǝnglǝrni ǝzmǝnglar, berip ⱨujum ⱪilip zeminni igilǝnglar.
10 Ekufikeni kwenu khona lizafika ebantwini abonwabileyo lelizweni elibanzi inhlangothi zombili, ngoba uNkulunkulu ulinikele esandleni senu; indawo lapho okungasweleki lutho khona elizweni.
U yǝrgǝ barƣininglarda silǝr tinq-aman turuwatⱪan bir hǝlⱪni, ⱨǝr ǝtrapiƣa sozulƣan kǝng-azadǝ bir zeminni kɵrisilǝr! Huda u yǝrni silǝrning ⱪolunglarƣa tapxurƣandur. U yurtta yǝr yüzidǝ tepilidiƣan barliⱪ nǝrsilǝrdin ⱨeqbiri kǝm ǝmǝs, dedi.
11 Asesuka lapho evela kusendo lwabakoDani eZora leEshitawoli amadoda angamakhulu ayisithupha ehlomile izikhali zempi,
Xuning bilǝn Danlarning jǝmǝtidin altǝ yüz adǝm jǝnggǝ ⱪorallinip, Zoreaⱨ wǝ Əxtaoldin qiⱪip mangdi.
12 enyuka amisa inkamba eKiriyathi-Jeyarimi koJuda. Ngenxa yalokho ayibiza leyondawo ngokuthi yiMahane-Dani kuze kube lamuhla; khangela isemuva kweKiriyathi-Jeyarimi.
Ular Yǝⱨuda yurtidiki Kiriat-Yearim degǝn jayƣa berip, qedir tikti (xunga bu jay taki bügüngiqǝ «Danning lǝxkǝrgaⱨi» dǝp atalmaⱪta; u Kiriat-Yearimning arⱪa tǝripigǝ jaylaxⱪanidi).
13 Asesedlula esuka lapho, aya entabeni yakoEfrayimi, afika endlini kaMika.
Andin ular u yǝrdin Əfraim taƣliⱪ rayoniƣa berip, Mikaⱨning ɵyigǝ yetip kǝldi.
14 Khona amadoda amahlanu ayehambile ukuhlola ilizwe iLayishi aphendula athi kubafowabo: Liyazi yini ukuthi kulezizindlu kukhona i-efodi lamatherafi lesithombe esibaziweyo lesithombe esibunjwe ngokuncibilikisa? Ngakho-ke cabangani elizakwenza.
Laix yurtiƣa qarlax üqün barƣan bǝx kixi ɵz ⱪerindaxliriƣa: — Bilǝmsilǝr? Bu ɵydǝ bir ǝfod toni, birnǝqqǝ tǝrafim butliri, bir oyma mǝbud wǝ ⱪuyma mǝbud bardur! Əmdi ⱪandaⱪ ⱪilixinglar kerǝklikini oylixinglar! — dedi.
15 Asephambukela khona, aya endlini yejaha umLevi endlini kaMika, ambuza impilo.
Ular burulup Lawiy yigitning ɵyigǝ (Mikaⱨⱪa tǝwǝ ɵygǝ) kirip uningdin ⱨal soridi.
16 Amadoda angamakhulu ayisithupha ayehlomile ngezikhali zempi, ayengabantwana bakoDani, asesima ekungeneni kwesango.
Dan ⱪǝbilisidin bolƣan jǝng ⱪorallirini kɵtürgǝn altǝ yüz kixi dǝrwaza aldida turup turdi.
17 Lawomadoda amahlanu ayehambile ukuhlola ilizwe enyuka angena lapho athatha isithombe esibaziweyo, le-efodi, lamatherafi, lesithombe esibunjwe ngokuncibilikisa, umpristi esemi ekungeneni kwesango lamadoda angamakhulu ayisithupha ayebhince izikhali zempi.
U zeminni qarlaxⱪa barƣan bǝx adǝm [buthaniƣa] kirip, oyma but, ǝfod toni, tǝrafim butliri wǝ ⱪuyma butni elip qiⱪti. Kaⱨin jǝng ⱪorallirini kɵtürgǝn altǝ yüz kixi bilǝn billǝ dǝrwazida turatti.
18 La-ke esengenile endlini kaMika athatha isithombe esibaziweyo, i-efodi, lamatherafi, lesithombe esibunjwe ngokuncibilikisa, umpristi wathi kiwo: Lenzani?
Bu bǝx adǝm Mikaⱨning ɵyigǝ kirip oyma but, ǝfod tonini, tǝrafim butliri wǝ ⱪuyma butni elip qiⱪⱪanda kaⱨin ulardin: — Bu nemǝ ⱪilƣininglar?! — dǝp soridi.
19 Asesithi kuye: Thula, bamba umlomo wakho, uhambe lathi, ube ngubaba kithi lompristi. Kungcono yini ukuthi ube ngumpristi wendlu yomuntu oyedwa kumbe ukuthi ube ngumpristi wesizwe losendo lwakoIsrayeli?
Ular uningƣa: — Ün qiⱪarmay, aƣzingni ⱪolung bilǝn etip, biz bilǝn mengip, bizgǝ ⱨǝm ata ⱨǝm kaⱨin bolup bǝrgin. Sening pǝⱪǝt bir adǝmning ɵyidikilǝrgǝ kaⱨin bolƣining yahximu, yaki Israilning bir jǝmǝti bolƣan pütün bir ⱪǝbiligǝ kaⱨin bolƣining yahximu? — dedi.
20 Lenhliziyo yompristi yathokoza, wasethatha i-efodi lamatherafi lesithombe esibaziweyo, wangena phakathi kwabantu.
Xundaⱪ dewidi, kaⱨinning kɵngli hux bolup, ǝfod, tǝrafim butliri wǝ oyma mǝbudni elip hǝlⱪning arisiƣa kirip turdi.
21 Basebephenduka behamba, babeka abantwanyana lezifuyo lempahla phambi kwabo.
Andin ular burulup, u yǝrdin kǝtti; ular baliliri wǝ qarpaylarni wǝ yük-taⱪlirining ⱨǝmmisini aldida mangduruwǝtkǝnidi.
22 Sebekhatshana lomuzi kaMika, amadoda ayesezindlini ezaziseduze lendlu kaMika abizelwa ndawonye abafica abantwana bakoDani.
Mikaⱨning ɵyidin heli yiraⱪliƣanda Mikaⱨning ɵyining ǝtrapidiki hǝlⱪlǝr yiƣilip, Danlarƣa ⱪoƣlap yetixti.
23 Amemeza abantwana bakoDani. Basebephendula ubuso babo bathi kuMika: Ulani ukuze libuthane?
Ular Danlarni towlap qaⱪirdi, Danlar burulup Mikaⱨⱪa: — Sanga nemǝ boldi, bunqiwila kɵp hǝlⱪni yiƣip kelip nemǝ ⱪilmaⱪqisǝn?! — dedi.
24 Wasesithi: Lithethe onkulunkulu bami engabenzayo, lompristi, lahamba; pho ngiseselani? Kuyini lokho elikutsho kimi: Uhlutshwa yini?
U jawab berip: — Silǝr mǝn yasatⱪan mǝbudlarni kaⱨinim bilǝn ⱪoxup aldinglar, andin kǝttinglar! Manga yǝnǝ nemǝ ⱪaldi?! Xundaⱪ turuⱪluⱪ silǝr tehi: «Sanga nemǝ boldi?» — dǝwatisilǝrƣu! — dedi.
25 Abantwana bakoDani basebesithi kuye: Ilizwi lakho kalingezwakali phakathi kwethu, hlezi amadoda alolaka akuhlasele, ulahlekelwe yimpilo yakho lempilo yabendlu yakho.
Danlar uningƣa: — Ününgni qiⱪarma, bolmisa aqqiⱪi yaman kixilǝr seni tutuwelip, seni wǝ ailǝngdikilǝrni janliridin juda ⱪilmisun, yǝnǝ, — dedi.
26 Basebezihambela ngendlela yabo abantwana bakoDani. Lapho uMika esebonile ukuthi balamandla kulaye, waphenduka wabuyela endlini yakhe.
Bularni dǝp Danlar ɵz yoliƣa mangdi; Mikaⱨ ularning ɵzidin küqlük ikǝnlikini kɵrüp, yenip ɵz ɵyigǝ kǝtti.
27 Bona basebethatha lokho uMika ayekwenzile lompristi owayelaye, bafika eLayishi ebantwini ababelokuthula bengethuki lutho, babatshaya ngobukhali benkemba, batshisa umuzi ngomlilo.
Ular Mikaⱨ yasatⱪuzƣan nǝrsilǝr wǝ uning kaⱨinini elip, Laixⱪa ⱨujum ⱪildi; u yǝrdiki hǝlⱪ tinq-aman wǝ hatirjǝm turuwatⱪanidi; ular ularni ⱪiliqlap ⱪirip, xǝⱨǝrni otta kɵydürüwǝtti.
28 Njalo kwakungekho umkhululi, ngoba wawukhatshana leSidoni, bengasebenzelani lamuntu. Wawusesihotsheni esasingaseBeti-Rehobi. Basebesakha umuzi, bahlala kiwo.
Xǝⱨǝrni ⱪutⱪuzƣudǝk ⱨeq adǝm qiⱪimidi; qünki bu xǝⱨǝr Zidondin yiraⱪta idi, hǝlⱪi ⱨeqkim bilǝn bardi-kǝldi ⱪilixmaytti. Xǝⱨǝr Bǝyt-Rǝⱨobning yenidiki jilƣida idi. Danlar xǝⱨǝrni ⱪaytidin ⱪurup, olturaⱪlaxti.
29 Basebebiza ibizo lomuzi ngokuthi yiDani ngebizo likaDani uyise owazalelwa uIsrayeli. Kodwa ibizo lomuzi laliyiLayishi kuqala.
Ular bu xǝⱨǝrgǝ Israilning oƣulliridin bolƣan, ɵz atisi Danning ismini ⱪoyup Dan dǝp atidi. Ilgiri u xǝⱨǝrning nami Laix idi.
30 Abantwana bakoDani basebezimisela isithombe esibaziweyo. Njalo uJonathani indodana kaGereshoma, indodana kaManase, yena lamadodana akhe babengabapristi besizwe sakoDani kwaze kwaba lusuku lokuthunjwa kwelizwe.
Danlar xu yǝrdǝ bu oyma butni ɵzlirigǝ tiklidi; Musaning oƣli Gǝrxomning ǝwladi Yonatan wǝ uning oƣulliri bolsa xu zeminning hǝlⱪi sürgün boluxⱪa elip ketilgǝn küngiqǝ Danlarning ⱪǝbilisigǝ kaⱨin bolup turƣanidi.
31 Basebezimisela isithombe esibaziweyo sikaMika ayesenzile, zonke izinsuku indlu kaNkulunkulu iseShilo.
Hudaning ɵyi Xiloⱨda turƣan barliⱪ waⱪitlarda, Danlar ɵzliri üqün tikligǝn, Mikaⱨ yasatⱪuzƣan oyma mǝbud [Danda] turƣuzuldi.
