Iyyaasuu 17
1 Gosti Minaasees qooda argatte; inni ilma Yoosef hangafa tureetii. Maakiir ilmi Minaasee hangaftichi abbaan Giliʼaadotaa sun sababii loltuu jabaa taʼeef Giliʼaadii fi Baashaan isaaf kennaman.
Lesi kwakuyisabelo sesizwana sikaManase njengezibulo likaJosefa. UMakhiri izibulo likaManase, ukhokho wamaGiliyadi, wathatha iGiliyadi leBhashani ngenxa yokuthi amaMakhire ayengamaqhawe amakhulu.
2 Kanaafuu qoodni kun saba Minaasee warra hafaniif jechuunis balbala Abiiʼezer, Heleq, Asriiʼeel, Sheekem, Heeferii fi Shemiidaaf kenname. Kunneenis balbala balbala isaaniitiin ilmaan Minaasee ilma Yoosef kanneen biraa ti.
Ngakho isabelo lesi sasingesabantu bonke bakoManase, insendo zika-Abhiyezeri, uHelekhi, u-Asiriyeli, uShekhemu, uHeferi loShemida. Lezi ngezinye izizukulwane zesilisa zikaManase indodana kaJosefa ngokwensendo zazo.
3 Zelofehaad ilmi Heefer, ilmi Giliʼaad, ilma Maakiir, ilmi Minaasee sun intallan malee ilmaan hin qabu ture. Maqaan intallan isaas Mahilaa, Nohii, Hoglaa, Miilkaa fi Tiirzaa.
UZelofehadi indodana kaHeferi, indodana kaGiliyadi, indodana kaMakhiri indodana kaManase, wayengelamadodana kodwa wayelamadodakazi wodwa, amabizo awo kwakunguMahila, uNowa, uHogila, uMilikha loThiza.
4 Isaanis gara Eleʼaazaar lubichaa, gara Iyyaasuu ilma Nuunitii fi gara hooggantootaa dhaqanii “Waaqayyo akka inni obboloota keenya gidduutti dhaala nuu kennuuf Musee ajajeera” jedhan. Kanaafuu Iyyaasuun akkuma ajaja Waaqayyootti obboloota abbaa isaanii wajjin dhaala kenneef.
Aya ku-Eliyazari umphristi, loJoshuwa indodana kaNuni kanye labakhokheli athi, “UThixo walaya uMosi ukuthi asabele ilifa kanye labanewethu.” Ngakho uJoshuwa wabanika ilifa ndawonye labanewabo bakayise, kulandelwa umlayo kaThixo.
5 Minaaseen Giliʼaadii fi Baashaan keessaa gama baʼa Yordaanositti lafa iddoo kudhanitti hiramu qaba ture.
Isabelo sikaManase sasigoqela iziqinti ezilitshumi zomhlabathi emhlubulweni weGiliyadi leBhashani empumalanga yeJodani,
6 Kunis sababii intallan gosa Minaasee sun ilmaan dhiiraa gidduutti qooda argataniif. Lafti Giliʼaad ilmaan Minaasee kanneen hafaniif kennamte.
ngenxa yokuthi amadodakazi esizwana sikaManase athola ilifa kanye labafowabo. IGiliyadi yayingeyezizukulwana zikaManase.
7 Daangaan gosa Minaasee Aasheerii kaʼee hamma Mikmetaati kan karaa baʼa Sheekem jirtu sanaatti balʼata. Daangaan sunis achii kaʼee kibbaan gad buʼee saba Een Tafuuʼaa keessa jiraatus dabalata.
Ilizwe likaManase lalisukela e-Asheri lisiya eMikhimethathi empumalanga kweShekhemu. Umngcele wawudabula usiya usiyagoqela abantu ababehlala e-Eni-Thaphuwa.
8 Biyyi Tafuuʼaa kan Minaasee turte; Tafuuʼaan mataan ishee garuu karaa daangaa Minaaseetiin kan ilmaan Efreem turte.
(UManase wayelomhlaba elizweni leThaphuwa, kodwa iThaphuwa ngokwayo, emngceleni kaManase, yayingeyama-Efrayimi.)
9 Daangaan sun karaa kibbaatiin ittuma fufee Laga Qaanaa bira gaʼa. Magaalaawwan Efreem kanneen magaalaawwan Minaasee gidduutti argamanitu ture; daangaan Minaasee garuu Kaaba lagichaa irra darbee galaana bira gaʼee dhaabata.
Umngcele waqhubeka eningizimu usiya oDongeni lweKhana. Kwakulamadolobho ka-Efrayimi ayakhelwe phakathi kwamadolobho kaManase, kodwa umngcele kaManase wawulicele langenyakatho lodonga njalo uphelela olwandle.
10 Biyyi sun karaa kibbaatiin kan gosa Efreemiiti; karaa kaabaatiin immoo kan gosa Minaasee ti. Biyyi Minaasee hamma galaanaatti deemee karaa kaabaatiin Aasheerin, karaa baʼaatiin immoo Yisaakorin daangeessa.
Eningizimu ilizwe lalingelika-Efrayimi, enyakatho lingelikaManase. Ilizwe likaManase lalifika olwandle njalo lingcelezelane lo-Asheri enyakatho kanye lo-Isakhari empumalanga.
11 Minaaseenis Yisaakorii fi Aasheer keessaa Beet Sheʼaan, Yibleʼaamii fi saba Door, Eendoor, Taʼanaakii fi Megidoo qubatawwan naannoo isaanii jiran wajjin qaba ture; sadaffaan immoo Naafootii dha.
Phakathi kuka-Isakhari lo-Asheri uManase wayeloBhethi-Shani, u-Ibhiliyami labantu beDori, abe-Endo, abeThanakhi leMegido, ndawonye lemizana ababakhelane layo (owesithathu eluhlwini kwakunguNafothi).
12 Taʼus sababii Kanaʼaanonni biyya sana jiraachuuf kutatanii turaniif gosti Minaasee magaalaawwan kanneen qabachuu hin dandeenye.
Kodwa-ke abakoManase kabenelisanga ukuthatha amadolobho la ngoba amaKhenani ayezimisele ukuhlala kuleyondawo.
13 Garuu Israaʼeloonni yommuu jabina argachaa dhufanitti akka isaan hojii humnaa hojjetan godhan malee Kanaʼaanota achii hin baafne.
Lanxa kunjalo, kwathi abako-Israyeli sebelamandla amakhulu, benza amaKhenani izigqili zabo kodwa kababaxotshanga kokuphela.
14 Namoonni Yoosefis Iyyaasuudhaan, “Ati maaliif ixaa tokkoo fi qooda tokko qofa dhaala nuu kennite? Nu saba akka malee baayʼee fi saba Waaqayyo guddisee eebbisee dha” jedhan.
Abantu bakoJosefa bathi kuJoshuwa, “Kungani lisinike isabelo esisodwa kuphela lengxenye eyodwa yelifa na? Singabantu abanengi kakhulu njalo uThixo usibusise kakhulu.”
15 Iyyaasuunis, “Yoo isin akka malee baayʼattanii biyyi gaaraa Efreem kun isinitti dhiphatte bosona seenaatii biyya Feerzotaatii fi Refaayimootaa keessatti iddoo jireenyaa qopheeffadhaa” jedhee deebiseef.
UJoshuwa wabaphendula wathi; “Nxa libanengi kakhulu, njalo nxa ilizwe lamaqaqa elako-Efrayimi lilincinyane kini, ngenani eguswini liyecenta umhlaba ube ngowenu elizweni lamaPherizi lelamaRefayi.”
16 Namoonni Yoosefis, “Biyyi gaaraa kun nu hin gaʼu; Kanaʼaanonni lafa diriiraa irra jiraatan hundi, warri Beet Sheʼaanii fi qubatawwan ishee akkasumas warri Sulula Yizriʼeel keessa jiraatan hundi gaariiwwan sibiilaa qaban” jedhanii deebisan.
Abantu bakoJosefa baphendula bathi, “Ilizwe lamaqaqa kaliseneli njalo amaKhenani wonke ahlala emagcekeni alezinqola zensimbi, bonke abaseBhethi-Shani lemizana yakhona lalabo ababehlala esigodini seJezerili.”
17 Iyyaasuun garuu mana Yoosefiin jechuunis Efreemii fi Minaaseedhaan akkana jedhe; “Isin saba akka malee baayʼee kan humna guddaa qabuu dha. Ixaa tokko qofa hin qabaattan.
Kodwa uJoshuwa wakhuluma labendlu kaJosefa, ku-Efrayimi loManase wathi, “Libanengi njalo lilamandla amakhulu kakhulu. Kalisoze libe lesabelo esisodwa kuphela,
18 Biyya gaaraa kan bosonaa garuu ni qabaattu; bosona ciraa; biyyattiinis hamma qarqara daangaa isheetti kanuma keessan taati; Kanaʼaanonni yoo gaariiwwan sibiilaa qabaatanii jajjaboo taʼanis isin ariitanii isaan baasuu dandeessu.”
kodwa lelizwe lamaqaqa aliligusu. Licenteni lize liyefika lapho eliphelela khona kube ngelenu; lanxa amaKhenani elezinqola zensimbi njalo lanxa elamandla, lingawaxotsha.”
