1 Taabonni Waaqayyoos Filisxeem keessa jiʼa torba ture.
Bokosi la Yehova linakhala mʼdziko la Afilisti kwa miyezi isanu ndi iwiri.
2 Filisxeemonnis lubootaa fi ilaaltota waamanii, “Taabota Waaqayyoo maal haa goonu? Iddoo isaatti haala akkamiitiin akka deebifnu nutti himaa” jedhaniin.
Tsono Afilisti anayitana ansembe ndi amawula ndipo anati, “Tichite nalo chiyani Bokosi la Yehova? Tiwuzeni momwe tidzalitumizira ku malo ake.”
3 Isaanis deebisanii, “Yoo taabota Waaqa Israaʼel deebiftan, kennaa yakkaa wajjin malee duwwaa isaa hin deebisinaa; ergasii isin ni fayyitu; harki isaas maaliif akka isin irraa hin kaafamin ni beektu” jedhaniin.
Iwo anayankha kuti, “Ngati mufuna kubweza Bokosi la Mulungu wa Israeli, musalitumize wopanda kanthu, koma muyesetse kulitumiza pamodzi ndi nsembe yopepesera machimo. Mukatero mudzachiritsidwa, ndipo mudzadziwa chifukwa chiyani chilango cha Yehova sichikukuchokani.”
4 Filisxeemonnis, “Kennaan yakkaa kan nu erginuuf maal taʼuu qaba?” jedhanii gaafatan. Isaanis akkana jedhanii deebisan; “Sababii dhaʼichi isinii fi bulchitoota keessan rukute tokkuma taʼeef akkuma baayʼina bulchitoota Filisxeemotaatti dhiitoo warqee shananii fi hantuuta warqee shan ergaa.
Afilisti anafunsanso kuti “Kodi ife tipereke nsembe yanji yopepesera machimo?” Iwo anayankha kuti, “Mupereke zifanizo zagolide za zithupsa zisanu ndi zamakoswe asanu malingana ndi chiwerengero cha akalonga a Afilisti popeza mliri womwewo wagwera inu ndi akalonga anu.
5 Fakkii dhiitoo fi fakkii hantuutaa kanneen biyya balleessaa jiranii hojjedhaa; Waaqa Israaʼeliif immoo ulfina kennaa. Yoos inni harka isaa isin irraa, waaqota keessanii fi biyya keessan irraa ni kaasa taʼa.
Mupange zifanizo za zithupsa zisanu ndi za makoswe asanu amene akuwononga dziko lanu ndipo mupereke ulemu kwa Israeli. Mwina adzaleka kuzunza inu, milungu yanu ndi dziko lanu.
6 Isin maaliif akka namoota Gibxiitii fi akka Faraʼoon mataa jabeeyyii taatu? Yeroo Waaqayyo adaba cimaadhaan isaan adabetti, isaan akka Israaʼeloonni gara barbaadan deemaniif hin eeyyamneefii?
Nʼchifukwa chiyani mukuwumitsa mitima monga anachita Aigupto ndi Farao? Mulungu atawalanga anthu a ku Igupto aja kodi suja anawalola Aisraeli kuti azipita ndipo anapitadi?
7 “Kanaafuu gaarii haaraa fi saawwan hoosisan kan waanjoon takkumaa irra hin kaaʼamin lama qopheessaa. Saawwan sanas gaarii sanatti camadaa; jabboota isaanii garuu gara manaatti biraa deebisaatii itti cufaa.
“Tsopano konzani galeta latsopano limodzi ndiponso ngʼombe ziwiri zazikazi zamkaka zimene sizinavalepo goli. Muzimangirire ngʼombezo ku ngoloyo, koma ana awo muwachotse ndi kuwasiya kwanu.
8 Taabota Waaqayyoo sanas fuudhaatii gaarii irra kaaʼaa; miʼa warqee aarsaa yakkaatiif ergitan sanas sanduuqa taabota Waaqayyoo bira jiru keessa kaaʼaa. Akka inni karaa barbaade deemuufis gad dhiisaa;
Mutenge Bokosi la Yehova ndi kuliyika pa galetapo ndipo pambali pake pakhale Bokosi, mʼmene muyikemonso zinthu zagolide zomwe mukutumiza kwa Iye monga nsembe yopepesera machimo. Kenaka, mulisiye lizipita.
9 garuu ija isa irraa hin buqqifatinaa. Yoo inni gara biyya isaa gara Beet Shemeshitti qajeele rakkina guddaa kana Waaqayyotu nutti fide. Yoo gara sanatti qajeeluu baate garuu dhaʼichi kun akkuma tasaa nutti dhufe malee Waaqayyo nutti hin fidne.”
Koma muziliyangʼana. Ngati lilondola njira yopita kwawo kwa Bokosilo mpaka ku Beti-Semesi ndiye kuti amene watichita zoyipa zazikulu zoterezi ndi Mulungu wa Israeli. Koma ngati silitero, ife tidzadziwa kuti sanali Mulungu wa Israeli amene watizunza koma kuti zinangochitika mwatsoka.”
10 Isaanis akkasuma godhan. Saawwan lamaan fuudhanii gaariitti camadan; jabboota isaanii manatti deebisanii itti cufan.
Anthu aja anachitadi zimenezi. Anatenga ngʼombe zamkaka ziwiri nazimanga ku galeta lija. Koma ana awo anawatsekera mʼkhola.
11 Isaanis taabota Waaqayyoo sana gaariitti feʼan. Sanduuqa hantuuta warqeetii fi fakkii iitoo baatu sanas isa wajjin feʼan.
Tsono anayika Bokosi la Yehova pa galeta pamodzi ndi bokosi limene munali makoswe agolide ndi zifanizo zawo za zithupsa.
12 Saawwan sunis karaa qabatanii utuu bitaa mirgatti hin gorin marʼachaa gara Beet Shemeshitti qajeelan. Bulchitoonni Filisxeemotaas hamma daarii Beet Shemeshitti isaan faana buʼan.
Ngʼombe zija zinapita molunjika kutsata msewu wopita ku Beti Semesi zikulira njira yonse. Sizinakhotere kumanja kapena kumanzere. Akalonga a Afilisti anazitsatira mpaka mʼmalire a Beti-Semesi.
13 Yeroo sanattis namoonni Beet Shemeshi sulula keessaa qamadii haamaa turan; isaanis yommuu ol jedhanii taabota sana arganitti akka malee gammadan.
Nthawi imeneyi anthu a ku Beti-Semesi amakolola tirigu mʼchigwa ndipo pamene anayangʼana ndi kuona Bokosi la Chipangano likubwera anakondwa.
14 Gaariin sunis lafa qotiisaa Iyyaasuu nama Beet Shemeshi bira gaʼee kattaa guddaa tokko cina dhaabate. Namoonnis muka gaarii sanaa falaxanii saawwan sana aarsaa gubamu godhanii Waaqayyoof dhiʼeessan.
Galeta lija linafika ku munda wa Yoswa ku Beti-Semesi ndipo linayima. Kumeneko kunali mwala waukulu. Tsono anthu anawaza nkhuni galetalo, ndipo anapha ngʼombe zija ndi kuzipereka ngati nsembe zopsereza kwa Yehova.
15 Warri Lewwotaas taabota Waaqayyoo sanduuqicha miʼa warqee baatu sana wajjin gad buusanii kattaa guddaa irra kaaʼan; gaafuma sanas namoonni Beet Shemeshi aarsaa gubamuu fi qalma Waaqayyoof dhiʼeessan.
Alevi nʼkuti atatsitsa Bokosi la Yehova, pamodzi ndi bokosi mmene munali zinthu zagolide, ndipo anawayika pa mwala uja waukulu. Tsiku limenelo anthu a ku Beti-Semesi anapereka nsembe yopsereza ndi nsembe zina kwa Yehova.
16 Bulchitoonni Filisxeemotaa shanan erga waan kana hunda arganii booddee gaafuma sana Eqroonitti deebiʼan.
Atsogoleri asanu a Afilisti ataona izi anabwerera ku Ekroni tsiku lomwelo.
17 Iiti warqee kan Filisxeemonni aarsaa yakkaa godhanii Waaqayyoof ergan kanaa dha; isaanis tokko Ashdoodiif, tokko Gaazaaf, tokko Eqrooniif, tokko Gaatiif, tokko immoo Ashqalooniif ergan.
Zifanizo zagolide za zithupsa zimene Afilisti anatumiza ngati nsembe zopepesera machimo kwa Yehova zinkayimirira mizinda isanu iyi motere: chimodzi cha ku Asidodi, china cha ku Gaza ndi zina za ku Asikeloni, Gati ndi Ekroni.
18 Baayʼinni hantuutota warqees akkuma baayʼina magaalaawwan Filisxeemotaa kanneen bulchitoota shananiif kennamaniitti ture. Magaalaawwan dallaa jajjaboo qaban kunneenis gandoota of jalaa qabu ture. Kattaan guddichi isaan taabota Waaqayyoo isa irra kaaʼan sunis lafa qotiisaa Iyyaasuu namicha Beet Shemeshi keessatti hamma harʼaatti dhugaa baatuu dha.
Ndipo chiwerengero cha zifanizo za makoswe chinali chofanana ndi chiwerengero cha mizinda ya akalonga asanu a Afilisti. Mizindayi inali yotetezedwa bwino ndi ina yapamtetete. Mwala waukulu umene anayikapo Bokosi la Chipangano la Yehova mʼmunda mwa Yoswa ku Beti-Semesi uli ngati mboni mpaka lero.
19 Waaqnis sababii isaan taabota Waaqayyoo keessa ilaalaniif namoota Beet Shemeshi dhaʼee isaan keessaa nama torbaatama ajjeese. Sababii Waaqayyo akka malee isaan dhaʼeef namoonni sun ni booʼan;
Yehova anakantha amuna a ku Beti-Semesi 70 chifukwa anasuzumira mʼBokosi la Chipangano cha Yehova. Ndipo anzawo analira chifukwa Yehova anawalanga kwambiri.
20 namoonni Beet Shemeshis, “Eenyutu fuula Waaqayyoo, fuula Waaqa qulqulluu kanaa dura dhaabachuu dandaʼa? Taabonni kun asii baʼee eenyu bira haa dhaqu?” jedhanii gaafatan.
Tsono anthu a ku Beti-Semesi anafunsa, “Ndani angathe kuyima pamaso pa Yehova Mulungu Woyera? Bokosi la Chipanganoli lipita kuti likachoka pano?”
21 Ergasii gara Kiriyaati Yeʼaariimitti ergamoota erganii, “Filisxeemonni taabota Waaqayyoo deebisaniiru; gad kottaatii taabota sana gara keessanitti fudhadhaa” jedhaniin.
Tsono iwo anatumiza a mithenga kwa anthu a ku Kiriati-Yearimu kuti, “Afilisti atibwezera Bokosi la Yehova. Bwerani kuno mudzalitenge, mupite nalo kwanuko.”
