Abahluleli 9
1 UAbhimeleki indodana kaJerubali wasesiya eShekema kubafowabo bakanina, wakhuluma kibo lakusendo lonke lwendlu kayise kanina, esithi:
Abiimelek ilmi Yerub-Baʼaal gara obboloota haadha isaa kanneen Sheekem keessa jiraatanii dhaqee isaanii fi gosa haadha isaa hundaan akkana jedhe;
2 Ake likhulume endlebeni zabo bonke abahlali beShekemalithi: Yikuphi okungcono kini ukuthi wonke amadodana kaJerubali amadoda angamatshumi ayisikhombisa alibuse, kumbe indoda eyodwa ilibuse? Khumbulani futhi ukuthi ngilithambo lenu lenyama yenu.
“Jiraattota Sheekem hundumaan, ‘Kam isinii wayya? Yoo ilmaan Yerub-Baʼaal torbaatamni isin bulchan moo yoo namni tokko isin bulche wayya?’ jedhaa gaafadhaa. Akka ani foonii fi dhiiga keessan taʼe immoo yaadadhaa.”
3 Labafowabo bakanina bamkhulumela ezindlebeni zabo bonke abahlali beShekema wonke la amazwi. Inhliziyo yabo yeyamela ukumlandela uAbhimeleki, ngoba bathi: Ungumfowethu.
Obboloonni haadha isaas dubbii kana gurra Sheekemotaatiin gaʼan; garaan isaaniis gara Abiimelek goruu kajeele; isaan, “Inni obboleessa keenya” jedhaniiruutii.
4 Bamnika inhlamvu zesiliva ezingamatshumi ayisikhombisa ezavela endlini kaBhali-Berithi; uAbhimeleki waseqhatsha ngazo abantu abayize labangakhathaliyo abamlandelayo.
Isaanis mana sagadaa Baʼaal Beriit keessaa meetii gara giraamii dhibba saddeet ulfaatu kennaniif; Abiimelekis meetii sanaan kashlabboota isa faana buʼan qaxarate.
5 Wasesiya endlini kayise eOfira, wabulala abafowabo amadodana kaJerubali, amadoda angamatshumi ayisikhombisa, phezu kwedwala elilodwa; kodwa uJothamu indodana elicinathunjana kaJerubali wasala, ngoba wacatsha.
Gara mana abbaa isaa kan Ofraatti argamuu dhaqee obboloota isaa ilmaan Yerub-Baʼaal torbaatama dhagaa tokko irratti qale. Yootaam ilmi Yiruubaʼaal quxisuun garuu dhokatee isa jalaa miliqe.
6 Labo bonke abahlali beShekema labo bonke abeBeti-Milo babuthana, bahamba bamenza wabusa uAbhimeleki abe yinkosi, esihlahleni se-okhi esamiswa siseShekema.
Namoonni Sheekemii fi Beet Miiloo hundi Abiimelekin moosisuuf jedhanii Sheekemitti utubaa mukaa guddaa tokko biratti walitti qabaman.
7 Lapho bemtshela uJothamu, wayakuma phezu kwengqonga yentaba yeGerizimi, waphakamisa ilizwi lakhe wamemeza wathi kibo: Ngizwani bahlali beShekema ukuze uNkulunkulu alizwe.
Yootaam yommuu wanni kun itti himametti fiixee Gaara Gerziimitti ol baʼee sagalee guddaadhaan akkana isaaniin jedhe; “Yaa jiraattota Sheekem, akka Waaqni isin dhagaʼuuf na dhaggeeffadhaa.
8 Izihlahla zahamba lokuhamba ukuzigcobela inkosi. Zathi esihlahleni somhlwathi: Sibuse.
Gaaf tokko mukkeen mootii moosifachuuf baʼan; isaanis muka ejersaatiin, ‘Mootii nuu taʼi’ jedhan.
9 Kodwa isihlahla somhlwathi sathi kuzo: Kambe ngizatshiya amafutha ami abadumisa ngawo uNkulunkulu labantu ngami, ukuze ngiyezunguza phezu kwezihlahla?
“Mukni ejersaa garuu, ‘Ani mukkeen hundaa olitti raafamuudhaaf jedhee zayitii koo kan Waaqnii fi namni ittiin kabajaman dhowwadhuu ree?’ jedhee deebise.
10 Izihlahla zasezisithi esihlahleni somkhiwa: Woza wena usibuse.
“Itti aansaniis mukkeen muka harbuutiin, ‘Kottuutii mootii nuu taʼi’ jedhan.
11 Kodwa isihlahla somkhiwa sathi kuzo: Kambe ngizatshiya ubumnandi bami lezithelo zami ezinhle, ukuze ngiyezunguza phezu kwezihlahla?
“Mukni harbuu garuu deebisee, ‘Ani mukkeen hundaa olitti baʼee raafamuuf jedhee ija koo miʼaawaa fi gaarii sana kennuu dhiisuu ree?’ jedhe.
12 Izihlahla zasezisithi esihlahleni sevini: Woza wena usibuse.
“Mukkeenis muka wayiniitiin, ‘Kottuutii mootii nuu taʼi’ jedhan.
13 Kodwa isihlahla sevini sathi kuzo: Kambe ngizatshiya iwayini lami elitsha elithokozisa uNkulunkulu labantu, ukuze ngiyezunguza phezu kwezihlahla?
“Mukni wayinii garuu deebisee, ‘Ani mukkeen hundaa olitti baʼee raafamuuf jedhe daadhii wayinii kootii kan Waaqaa fi nama gammachiisu sana kennuu dhiisuu?’ jedhe.
14 Izihlahla zonke zasezisithi embabazaneni: Woza wena usibuse.
“Dhuma irrattis mukkeen hundi muka qoraattiitiin, ‘Kottuutii mootii nuu taʼi’ jedhan.
15 Imbabazane yasisithi ezihlahleni: Uba ngeqiniso lingigcoba ngibe yinkosi phezu kwenu, wozani lidinge ukuvikelwa emthunzini wami; uba kungenjalo-ke, umlilo uzaphuma embabazaneni udle izihlahla zemisedari zeLebhanoni.
“Mukni qoraattiis mukkeeniin, ‘Isin yoo dhugumaan na moosifachuu feetan, kottaatii gaaddisa koo jalatti daʼeeffadhaa; yoo akkas taʼuu baate garuu ibiddi muka qoraattii keessaa baʼee birbirsa Libaanoon haa barbadeessu!’ jedhe.
16 Ngakho khathesi, uba likwenzile ngeqiniso langokuthembeka ukuthi libekile uAbhimeleki abe yinkosi, lokuthi uba lenzile okuhle ngoJerubali langendlu yakhe, lokuthi uba lenze kuye ngokufanele izandla zakhe;
“Egaa isin Abiimelekin moosisuun keessan yoo karaa dhugaatii fi amanamummaan taʼe, yoo Yerub-Baʼaalii fi maatii isaatiif waan gaarii gochuuf taʼe, yoo waan isaaf malu isaaf gochuuf taʼe,
17 ngoba ubaba walilwela, walahlela khatshana impilo yakhe, walophula esandleni samaMidiyani;
abbaan koo lubbuu isaa duʼaaf saaxilee harka Midiyaanotaa jalaa isin baasuuf isinii loleeraatii;
18 kodwa lina seliyivukele indlu kababa lamuhla, labulala amadodana akhe, amadoda angamatshumi ayisikhombisa, phezu kwedwala elilodwa, labeka uAbhimeleki indodana yencekukazi yakhe ukuthi abe yinkosi yabahlali beShekema, ngoba engumfowenu;
isin garuu harʼa maatii abbaa kootti kaatanii ilmaan isaa jechuunis nama torbaatama dhagaa tokko irratti qaltan; sababii inni fira keessan taʼeef Abiimelek ilma garbittii sana namoota Sheekem irratti moosiftan;
19 uba-ke ngeqiniso langokuthembeka lenzile ngoJerubali langendlu yakhe ngalolusuku, thokozani ngoAbhimeleki, laye athokoze ngani.
egaa yoo isin harʼa dhugaa fi amanamummaadhaan Yerub-Baʼaalii fi maatii isaatiif waan gaarii gootan, isin Abiimelekitti gammadaa; innis isinitti haa gammadu!
20 Kodwa uba kungenjalo, kakuphume umlilo kuAbhimeleki udle abahlali beShekema leBeti-Milo, njalo kakuphume umlilo kubahlali beShekema leBeti-Milo udle uAbhimeleki.
Akkas taʼuu baannaan garuu ibiddi mana Abiimelekii baʼee namoota Sheekemii fi Beet Miiloo haa fixu; akkasumas ibiddi namoota Sheekemii fi Beet Miiloo biraa baʼee Abiimelekin haa balleessu!”
21 UJothamu wasephunyuka wabaleka, waya eBeri, wahlala khona, ngenxa kaAbhimeleki umfowabo.
Yootaamis Biʼeeritti baqatee sababii obboleessa isaa Abiimelekin sodaateef achuma jiraate.
22 Kwathi uAbhimeleki esebuse uIsrayeli iminyaka emithathu,
Erga Abiimelek waggaa sadii Israaʼel bulchee booddee,
23 uNkulunkulu wathuma umoya omubi phakathi kukaAbhimeleki labahlali beShekema, njalo abahlali beShekema baziphatha ngokungathembeki kuAbhimeleki,
Waaqnis Abiimelekii fi namoota Sheekem gidduutti hafuura hamaa erge; Sheekemonnis Abiimelekitti daba hojjetan.
24 ukuze udlakela olwenziwa kumadodana kaJerubali angamatshumi ayisikhombisa lubuyele, legazi libekwe phezu kukaAbhimeleki umfowabo owawabulalayo, laphezu kwabahlali beShekema ababeqinise izandla zakhe ukubulala abafowabo.
Waaqnis yakka ilmaan Yerub-Baʼaal torbaataman sanatti hojjetamee fi dhiiga isaanii kan dhangalaafame sanaaf, Abiimelek obboleessa isaanii kan isaan qale sanaa fi namoota Sheekem kanneen akka inni obboloota isaa fixuuf isa gargaaran sana haaloo baʼuuf waan kana godhe.
25 Abahlali beShekema basebembekela abacathameli ezingqongeni zezintaba, baphanga bonke ababebedlula ngaleyondlela; uAbhimeleki wasekubikelwa.
Namoonni Sheekemis akka isaan riphanii isa eegataniif fiixee gaaraa irra namoota kaaʼatan; isaanis nama achiin darbu hunda saamaan; wanni kunis Abiimelekitti odeeffame.
26 UGahali indodana kaEbedi wasesiza labafowabo, bedlulela eShekema; njalo abahlali beShekema bamthemba.
Yeroo kanatti Gaʼaal ilmi Ebeed obboloota isaa wajjin gara Sheekem dhufe; Sheekemonnis isa abdatan.
27 Basebephuma baya emasimini, bakha izithelo zamavini ezivinini zabo, bazinyathela, benza indumiso, bangena endlini kankulunkulu wabo, badla banatha, bamthuka uAbhimeleki.
Isaanis erga gara lafa qotiisaa wayiniitti baʼanii wayinii walitti qabatanii booddee cuunfanii galma waaqa tolfamaa isaaniitti ayyaana ayyaaneffatan. Nyaatanii dhuganiis Abiimelekin abaaran.
28 UGahali indodana kaEbedi wasesithi: Ungubani uAbhimeleki njalo ungubani uShekema ukuthi simsebenzele? Kasindodana kaJerubali yini, loZebuli induna yayo? Sebenzelani amadoda kaHamori uyise kaShekema. Ngoba thina sizamsebenzelelani?
Gaʼaal ilmi Ebeedis akkana jedhe; “Akka nu isaaf bulluuf Abiimelekii fi Sheekem eenyu? Abiimelek ilma Yerub-Baʼaal mitii? Zebulis itti aanaa isaa mitii? Isin namoota Hamoor abbaa Sheekem tajaajilaa! Nu maaliif Abiimelekin tajaajillaa?
29 Sengathi ngabe lababantu bebesesandleni sami, bengizamkhupha-ke uAbhimeleki. Wasesithi kuAbhimeleki: Yandisa ibutho lakho, uphume.
Utuu sabni kun ajaja koo jala jiraatee silaa ani Abiimelekin lafa irraa nan balleessa ture; ‘Waraana kee dabaladhuutii gad baʼi!’ isaan nan jedhas ture.”
30 Kwathi uZebuli umbusi womuzi esizwa amazwi kaGahali indodana kaEbedi, ulaka lwakhe lwavutha.
Zebul bulchaan magaalattii yeroo waan Gaʼaal ilmi Ebeed jedhe dhagaʼetti akka malee aare.
31 Wathuma izithunywa kuAbhimeleki ngobuqili, esithi: Khangela, uGahali indodana kaEbedi labafowabo bafikile eShekema, khangela-ke, sebeqinisa umuzi ukumelana lawe.
Akkana jedhees dhoksaadhaan gara Abiimelekitti ergamoota erge; “Gaʼaal ilmi Ebeedii fi obboloonni isaa gara Sheekem dhufanii saba magaalaa sitti kakaasaa jiru.
32 Khathesi-ke sukuma ebusuku wena labantu abalawe, uyecathama egangeni.
Kanaafuu atii fi namoonni kee halkaniin baatanii lafa qotiisaa keessa riphuu qabdu.
33 Kuzakuthi-ke ekuseni ekuphumeni kwelanga, uvuke ngovivi uwuhlasele umuzi; khangela, lapho yena labantu abalaye bephuma ukumelana lawe, uzakwenza kuye njengalokho isandla sakho esikutholayo.
Ganama akkuma aduun baateenis magaalaa sana cabsaa seenaa. Yommuu Galaʼaalii fi namoonni isaa sitti dhufanittis waan harki kee hojjechuu malu kam iyyuu hojjedhu.”
34 UAbhimeleki wasesukuma labo bonke abantu ababelaye, ebusuku, basebeyicathamela iShekema ngezigaba ezine.
Abiimelekis namoota isa wajjin turan hunda wajjin halkaniin kaʼee garee afuritti qoodamuudhaan Sheekemitti dhiʼaatee riphe.
35 UGahali indodana kaEbedi wasephuma wema esikhaleni sesango lomuzi. UAbhimeleki wasesukuma labantu ababelaye ekucathameni.
Akkuma Gaʼaal ilmi Ebeed baʼee karra magaalaa sanaa irra dhaabateen, Abiimelek namoota isaa wajjin iddoo riphee ture sanaa itti gad baʼe.
36 Kwathi uGahali ebona abantu, wathi kuZebuli: Khangela, abantu bayehla ezingqongeni zezintaba. Kodwa uZebuli wathi kuye: Ubona amathunzi ezintaba kungathi ngabantu.
Gaʼaal yommuu isaan argetti Zebuliin, “Kunoo namoonni fiixee gaarranii irraa gad dhufaa jiru!” jedhe. Zebulis deebisee, “Gaaddisa tulluuwwaniitu namoota sitti fakkaate” jedheen.
37 UGahali waqhubeka futhi ekhuluma wathi: Khangela, abantu bayehla bevela phakathi kwelizwe, lelinye ixuku livela endleleni yamagceke abavumisi.
Gaʼaal garuu ammas deebisee, “Ilaali; namoonni handhuura lafaatii dhufaa jiru; gareen tokkos karaa muka abdaariitiin dhufaa jira” jedhe.
38 UZebuli wasesithi kuye: Usungaphi umlomo wakho owathi ngawo: Ungubani uAbhimeleki ukuthi simkhonze? Laba kayisibo abantu obadeleleyo yini? Ake uphume khathesi uyekulwa labo.
Zebulis, “Ati kan, ‘Akka nu isaaf bulluuf Abiimelek kun eenyu?’ jette, oduun kee sun amma meerre? Namoonni ati tuffatte isaan kana mitii? Mee baʼiitii jara loli kaa!” jedheen.
39 UGahali wasephuma phambi kwabahlali beShekema, walwa loAbhimeleki.
Kanaafuu Gaʼaal namoota Sheekem hoogganee Abiimelekin loluuf baʼe.
40 UAbhimeleki wamxotsha, wasebaleka phambi kwakhe; abanengi bawa belimele kwaze kwaba sekungeneni kwesango.
Abiimelekis isa ariʼe; innis duraa baqate; namoonni baayʼeenis madaaʼanii hamma karra magaalattiitti harcaʼan.
41 UAbhimeleki wasehlala eAruma. UZebuli wasemxotsha uGahali labafowabo, ukuze bangahlali eShekema.
Abiimelek Aruumaa keessa ture; Zebul immoo Gaʼaalii fi obboloota isaa ariʼee Sheekem keessaa baase.
42 Kwasekusithi kusisa abantu baphuma baya egangeni; bamtshela uAbhimeleki.
Guyyaa itti aanu namoonni Sheekem dirreetti baʼan; wanni kunis Abiimelekitti himame.
43 Wasethatha abantu, wabehlukanisa baba ngamaxuku amathathu, wacathama egangeni, wabona, khangela-ke, abantu bephuma emzini, wabasukela wabatshaya.
Innis namoota isaa fudhatee garee sadiitti qoodee dirree irratti riphee eeggate. Yeroo namoota magaalaa kaʼanii dhufaa jiran argettis isaan loluudhaaf kaʼe.
44 UAbhimeleki lexuku elalilaye basebebahlasela bema ekungeneni kwesango lomuzi, lamaxuku amabili ahlasela bonke ababesegangeni, abatshaya.
Abiimelekii fi gareen isa wajjin turan gara karra magaalattiitti gugatan. Gareen hafan lamaan immoo gara warra dirree irratti baʼanii turaniitti fiiganii isaan fixan.
45 UAbhimeleki wasesilwa emelene lomuzi lolosuku lonke, wawuthumba umuzi, wabulala abantu ababekiwo, wadilizela phansi umuzi, wawuhlanyela ngetshwayi.
Abiimelek gaafas guyyaa guutuu lolee magaalattii qabate; jiraattota ishees fixee magaalattii illee barbadeessee soogidda itti facaase.
46 Lapho bonke abahlali bomphotshongo weShekema bekuzwa, bangena enqabeni yendlu kaEli-Berithi.
Namoonni gamoo Sheekem keessa jiraatan yommuu waan kana dhagaʼanitti gara daʼannoo mana sagadaa Elbiriititti ol galan.
47 Kwabikelwa uAbhimeleki ukuthi bonke abahlali bemphotshongweni weShekema babuthene ndawonye.
Abiimelekis yommuu akka namoonni Sheekem achitti walitti qabaman dhagaʼetti,
48 UAbhimeleki wasesenyukela entabeni yeZalimoni, yena labo bonke abantu ababelaye; uAbhimeleki wathatha ihloka esandleni sakhe, wagamula ugatsha lwezihlahla, waluthatha walwetshata ehlombe lakhe, wathi ebantwini ababelaye: Lokhu elibona ngikwenza, phangisani likwenze njengami.
namoota isaa hundumaa wajjin Tulluu Zalmoonitti ol baʼe. Abiimelekis qottoo harkatti qabatee dameewwan mukaa mummuree ol fuudhee gatiittii isaatti baate. Namoota isa wajjin jiraniinis, “Dafaa! Waanuma anaa godhu argitan sana godhaa!” jedhe.
49 Ngakho bonke abantu labo bagamula, ngulowo ugatsha lwakhe, bamlandela uAbhimeleki bazibeka enqabeni, bathungela inqaba ngomlilo phezu kwabo, kwaze kwathi bonke abantu bomphotshongo weShekema labo bafa, phose abesilisa labesifazana abayinkulungwane.
Namoonni hundinuus dameewwan mukaa mummuratanii Abiimelekin duukaa buʼan. Dameewwan sanas daʼannoo Sheekemonni itti baqatan sanatti irkisanii ibidda itti qabsiisan. Kanaafuu namoonni gamoo Sheekem keessa turan hundinuu dhiironnii fi dubartoonni gara kuma tokko taʼan dhuman.
50 UAbhimeleki wasesiya eThebezi, wamisa inkamba maqondana leThebezi wayithumba.
Ergasiis Abiimelek gara Tebez dhaqee magaalaa sana marsee qabate.
51 Kodwa kwakulomphotshongo oqinileyo phakathi komuzi, labo bonke abesilisa labesifazana babalekela kuyo, labo bonke abahlali bomuzi, babavalela phakathi; benyukela ephahleni lomphotshongo.
Taʼus waan gamoon jabaan tokko magaalaa sana keessa tureef jiraattonni magaalaa sanaa dhiiraa dubartiin utuu hin hafin itti baqatan. Keessaanis ofitti cufanii bantii isaatti ol baʼan.
52 UAbhimeleki wasefika emphotshongweni, walwa lawo, wasondela emnyango womphotshongo ukuze awutshise ngomlilo.
Abiimelekis dhufee gamoo sana dhaʼe; yommuu inni ibiddaan gubuudhaaf balbala gamoo sanaatti dhiʼaatetti garuu,
53 Owesifazana othile wasephosa ucezu lwelitshe lokuchola ekhanda likaAbhimeleki, wadabula ukhakhayi lwakhe.
dubartiin tokko gubbaadhaa majii dhagaa itti gad dhiiftee buqqee mataa isaa cabsite.
54 Wasebiza masinyane ijaha elalithwala izikhali zakhe, wathi kilo: Hwatsha inkemba yakho ungibulale, hlezi bathi ngami: Owesifazana wambulala. Ijaha lakhe laselimgwaza, wafa-ke.
Innis dafee dargaggeessa miʼa lolaa baatuuf tokko waamee, “Akka isaan, ‘dubartiitu isa ajjeese’ jechuu hin dandeenyeef goraadee kee luqqifadhuu na ajjeesi” jedheen. Kanaafuu dargaggeessi sun isa waraane; innis ni duʼe.
55 Kwathi amadoda akoIsrayeli ebona ukuthi uAbhimeleki usefile, ahamba, ngulowo waya endaweni yakhe.
Israaʼeloonnis yommuu akka Abiimelek duʼe arganitti gara mana isaaniitti deebiʼan.
56 Ngokunjalo uNkulunkulu wabuyisela ububi bukaAbhimeleki ayebenze kuyise, ngokubulala abafowabo abangamatshumi ayisikhombisa.
Akkasiin Waaqni hammina Abiimelek obboloota isaa torbaatama qaluudhaan abbaa ofiitti hojjeteef gatii hojii isaa kenneef.
57 Labo bonke ububi bamadoda eShekema uNkulunkulu wabubuyisela phezu kwamakhanda awo; kwasekusehlela phezu kwabo isiqalekiso sikaJothamu indodana kaJerubali.
Akkasumas Waaqni hammina namoonni Sheekem hojjetan hunda matuma isaaniitti deebise. Abaarsi Yootaam ilma Yerub-Baʼaalis isaan irra gaʼe.
