In len ingo, ke soenna oasr tokosra lun mwet Israel, oasr sie mwet Levi su muta infulan eol in acn Ephraim. El eis sie mutan fusr Bethlehem in acn Judah tuh elan mutan kulansap se kial.
2 Lowomfazi wakhe omncinyane waphinga emelene laye, wasuka kuye waya endlini kayise eBhethelehema-Juda, waba lapho izinyanga ezine ezigcweleyo.
Tusruktu tok mutan sac el kosro nu saya, pwanang el folokla nu in lohm sin papa tumal ah in acn Bethlehem, ac muta we malem akosr.
3 Umkakhe wasesukuma wamlandela ukuyakhuluma enhliziyweni yakhe ukuthi ambuyise, lejaha lakhe lilaye labobabhemi ababili. Umfazi wasemngenisa endlini kayise; kwathi uyise wentombi embona wathokoza ukuhlangana laye.
Na mukul sac nunkauk in ukwalla ac srike in folokunulla nu yorol. Ke ma inge el us mukul kulansap se lal ac donkey lukwa welul. Ke mutan fusr sac liyalak el pwanulak nu in lohm sin papa tumal, na ke papa sac liyal el arulana engan in paingul.
4 Uyisezala, uyise wentombazana, wamlibazisa; wasehlala laye insuku ezintathu; basebesidla banatha balala khona ubusuku.
Papa sac el kwafe tuh mukul Levi sac in mutana, na el muta len tolu we, mongo, nim ac motul.
5 Kwasekusithi ngosuku lwesine, lapho bevuka ekuseni kakhulu, wasukuma ukuthi ahambe; kodwa uyise wentombazana wathi kumkhwenyana wakhe: Qinisa inhliziyo yakho ngocezu lwesinkwa; langemva kwalokho lizahamba.
Ke lututang se akakosr, eltal toang na ngutalik ac akola in som. Na papa tumun mutan sac fahk nu sin mwet Levi sac, “Mongoi meet, kom fah som.”
6 Ngakho bahlala badla banatha bobabili ndawonye. Uyise wentombazana wasesithi endodeni: Ake wanele ulale ubusuku uthokozise inhliziyo yakho.
Na mukul luo ah tukeni muta mongo ac nim. Ac papa tumun mutan sac fahk, “Sifilpa motulla lohm uh ofong tuh kom in mongla wo.”
7 Indoda isisukuma ukuthi ihambe, kodwa uyisezala wayicindezela yaze yabuya yalala lapho ubusuku.
Mwet Levi sac el tuyak in som, tuh papa sac el sifil kwafe elan muta, na el tari na motulla we ke fong sac.
8 Yasivuka ekuseni kakhulu ngosuku lwesihlanu ukuze ihambe. Uyise wentombazana wasesithi: Ake uqinise inhliziyo yakho. Basebelibala ilanga laze lakhothama, badla bobabili.
Toang na ke len se aklimekosr, el sifilpa mukui, na papa tumun mutan sac fahk, “Mongoiwin. Soano nu ke tafun len tok.” Ouinge mukul luo ah sifil tukeni mongoi.
9 Lapho indoda isukuma ukuthi ihambe, yona lomfazi wayo omncinyane lejaha layo, uyisezala, uyise wentombazana, wathi kuyo: Khangela, khathesi ilanga selitshona, sekuzakuhlwa; ake ulale ubusuku; khangela, ilanga selikhotheme, lala ubusuku lapha, ukuze inhliziyo yakho ithokoze. Kusasa-ke lizavuka ngovivi ngohambo lwenu, uye ethenteni lakho.
Ke mukul sac ac mutan kulansap se kial, ac mwet kulansap se pac lal, eltal sifil mukuiyak in som, na papa sac el fahk, “Liye, akuranna ekela. Wona kom in tari motulla pac ofong. Ac lohsrani pa inge. Mutawin pwar inge. Lutu kom fah toang na tukakek ac som nu yen sum an.”
10 Kodwa indoda kayithandanga ukulala ubusuku, kodwa yasukuma yahamba, yafika maqondana leJebusi eyiJerusalema. Yayilabobabhemi ababili ababotshelwe izihlalo; lomfazi wayo omncinyane wayelayo.
Tuh mukul sac tia lungse sifilpa motulla, na el ac mutan kulansap kial, wi mukul kulansap sac ac donkey lukwa ma oasr mwe muta fac, elos tuyak som.
11 Sebeseduze leJebusi ilanga laselitshonile kakhulu, ijaha laselisithi enkosini yalo: Ake uhambe, siphambukele kulo umuzi wamaJebusi, silale khona ubusuku.
Tafun len tok elos sun acn Jebus (Jerusalem). Na mukul kulansap sac fahk nu sin mwet Levi sac, “Efu kut tia kuhfwak motulla in siti se inge?”
12 Inkosi yayo yasisithi kuyo: Kasiyikuphambukela emzini wesizwe ongeyisiwo wabantwana bakoIsrayeli, kodwa sizadlulela eGibeya.
Tusruktu mwet kacto lal ah fahk, “Kut ac tia muta ke kutena siti ma mwet we tia mwet Israel, a kut ac fahsrna in sun acn Gibeah.”
13 Yasisithi encekwini yayo: Woza sisondele kwenye yalezozindawo, siyelala ubusuku eGibeya kumbe eRama.
Na el fahk nu sin mwet kulansap lal, “Fahsru, kut ac srike in sun sie sin siti inge, Gibeah ku Ramah, ac motulla we.”
14 Basebesedlula behamba; ilanga labatshonela eduze leGibeya eyakoBhenjamini.
Ouinge elos fahsr alukela acn Jebus. Elos sun acn Gibeah in acn lun sruf lal Benjamin ke ekela ah.
15 Basebephambuka lapho ukuze bangene balale ubusuku eGibeya. Esengenile wahlala phansi emdangeni womuzi, ngoba kwakungekho muntu owabemukela endlini yakhe ukuze balale ubusuku.
Elos kuhfla liki inkanek ah elos in som ac muta we ke fong sac. Elos utyak nu in siti sac ac muta ke acn in toeni lun mwet uh, tusruktu wanginna mwet solalos nu in lohm selos ah.
16 Khangela-ke, kwafika ixhegu livela emsebenzini walo ensimini kusihlwa. Lowomuntu laye wayevela entabeni yakoEfrayimi; yena-ke wahlala njengowezizwe eGibeya. Kodwa abantu baleyondawo babengabakoBhenjamini.
Ke elos srakna muta insac, oasr sie mwet matu foloko liki orekma lal in ima lal. Mwet se inge el mwet fineol in acn Ephraim, tusruk el tuku ac oakwuki in acn Gibeah. Inkaiyen mwet in acn se inge ma in sruf lal Benjamin.
17 Esephakamise amehlo akhe wabona lowomuntu, isihambi, emdangeni womuzi, njalo ixhegu lathi: Uya ngaphi, njalo uvela ngaphi?
Ke mwet matu sac akilen lah elos mwet fahsr nu in acn sac, el siyuk selos, “Kowos tuku ya me, ac kowos ac som nu ya?”
18 Wasesithi kulo: Siyedlula sivela eBhethelehema-Juda, siya eceleni elikhatshana lentaba yakoEfrayimi; ngivela lapho. Bengiye eBhethelehema-Juda, kodwa sengisiya endlini yeNkosi; kodwa kakulamuntu ongemukela endlini.
Na mwet Levi sac fahk, “Kut muta Bethlehem in acn Judah, ac inge kut fahsr in folokla nu acn sesr, su oan fineol in acn Ephraim. Tuh pa wangin mwet lohma nu sesr.
19 Kube kanti kulamahlanga lokudla kwabobabhemi bethu, njalo kulesinkwa futhi lewayini lami lokwencekukazi yakho lokwejaha elilenceku zakho; kakuswelekanga lutho.
Kut utuk mwe mongo ac mah pao nun kosro natusr, oayapa bread ac wain fal nu sik mutan kulansap kiuk ac mukul kulansap luk. Oasr yorosr ma nukewa kut enenu.”
20 Leloxhegu laselisithi: Ukuthula kakube kuwe. Kodwa zonke inswelo zakho ziphezu kwami. Kuphela ungalali emdangeni.
Na mwet matu sac fahk, “Kowos ku in mongla in lohm sik ah! Nga ku in karingin kowos; ac kowos tia enenu in motul likinum uh ke nien toeni lun siti uh.”
21 Ngakho laselimngenisa endlini yalo, lanika obabhemi ukudla. Basebegeza inyawo zabo, badla banatha.
Ouinge el pwanulosla nu lohm sel, ac el kiteya kosro natulos. Elos ohlla nialos ac mongo yorol.
22 Besathokozisa inhliziyo yabo, khangela, amadoda omuzi, abantwana abathile bakaBheliyali, ayizingelezela indlu, etshaya esivalweni, akhuluma kumninindlu, ixhegu, esithi: Khupha lowomuntu ongene endlini yakho, ukuze simazi.
Ke elos srakna muta aengani yorol, na un mukul koluk se in siti sac elos tuku raunela lohm sac, ac puok srungul in lohm ah. Elos fahk nu sin mukul matu se ma se lohm sac, “Sap mukul se ma wi kom utyak nu lohm an in ilme! Kut lungse orek ma koluk nu sel!”
23 Umuntu, umninindlu, wasephuma waya kiwo, wathi kiwo: Hatshi, bafowethu, ngiyalicela, lingenzi okubi; lokhu lumuntu engenile endlini yami, lingenzi lobubuthutha.
Tusruktu mwet matu sac el illa nu yorolos ac fahk nu selos, “Mwet lili luk, mo! Nunak munas, nimet kowos nunku in oru kain ouiya koluk ingan! Mwet se inge el mutwata yuruk — nga pa solal nu in lohm sik uh.
24 Khangelani, indodakazi yami eyintombi emsulwa, lomfazi wakhe omncane. Ake ngibakhuphele kini. Libathobise, lenze kibo okulungileyo emehlweni enu; kodwa kulumuntu lingenzi linto yobuthutha.
Liye, tulik mutan virgin se nutik pa inge, oayapa mutan kulansap se kien mukul sac pa inge. Nga ac usaltalu, ac komtal ku in oru ma na komtal lungse oru nu seltal, tusruk nimet oru kain ouiya koluk ingan nu sin mukul se inge!”
25 Kodwa lawomadoda kawathandanga ukumlalela. Ngakho lowomuntu wasebamba umfazi wakhe omncane, wamkhuphela kibo phandle. Njalo amazi amdlova ubusuku bonke kwaze kwasa. Kwathi emadabukakusa amyekela wahamba.
El ne fahk ouinge, tuh mukul ekasr ah tia lungse lohngol. Ouinge mwet Levi sac sruokya mutan kulansap se kial ah, ac sinukunulla nu likinuma nu yoroltal. Elos sruinkuilya ac akkolukyal fong nufon sac nwe ke lenelik.
26 Ngovivi lokusa owesifazana weza wawela phansi emnyango wendlu yomuntu lapho okwakukhona inkosi yakhe, kwaze kwakhanya.
Toang na ke lutu sac, mutan sac tuku nu lohm sin mwet matu sac, yen mukul tumal ah muta we ah, na el topla ke mutunoa. El oan insac nwe ke lenelik.
27 Inkosi yakhe yasivuka ekuseni, yavula iminyango yendlu, yaphuma ukuze ihambe ngendlela yayo; khangela-ke, umfazi, umfazi wakhe omncane wayewele emnyango wendlu, lezandla zakhe ziphezu kombundu.
Ke mukul tumal ah tukakek ke lutu sac, el ikasla srungul ah elan som inkanek lal ah, na el liyauk tuh na mutan kulansap kial ah topla oan insac ac paol saplakang nu ke srungul in lohm sac.
28 Yasisithi kuye: Sukuma, sihambe. Kodwa kakuphendulanga muntu. Yasimkhweza kubabhemi; indoda yasuka yaya endaweni yayo.
Na mukul sac fahk, “Tukakek, kut som.” Tuh el tiana topkol. Na mukul sac sraklalak ac fililya fin donkey natul ah, ac folokla nu in acn sel ah.
29 Lapho isifikile endlini yayo yathatha ingqamu, yambamba umfazi wayo omncane yamqumaquma lamathambo akhe iziqa ezilitshumi lambili; yamthumela kuyo yonke imingcele yakoIsrayeli.
Ke el sun acn we el utyak nu in lohm ah, ac eis mitmit se. Na el us monin mutan kulansap se kial, ac sipikya nu ke ip singoul luo, ac supwalik kais sie ip nu sin kais sie sruf lun mwet Israel.
30 Kwasekusithi bonke abakubonayo bathi: Kakukaze kwenzeke njalo kakukaze kubonwe okunje kusukela ngosuku abantwana bakoIsrayeli abenyuka ngalo elizweni leGibhithe kuze kube lamuhla. Nakanani ngalokho, leluleke, likhulume.
Mwet nukewa su liye ma sac elos fahk, “Kut soenna lohng ke kain ouiya se inge oemeet me! Wangin kain lumah inge nu orek oe ke mwet Israel elos illa liki acn Egypt! Enenu na in oasr ma kut oru kac, tuh mea kut ac oru uh?”
