1 Samueri 5
1 Mushure mokunge vaFiristia vapamba areka yaMwari, vakaitora kubva kuEbhenezeri vakaenda nayo kuAshidhodhi.
Filistifo no faa Onyankopɔn Apam Adaka no akyi, wɔmaa so fii Ebeneser akono hɔ kɔɔ kuropɔn Asdod mu.
2 Ipapo vakatakura areka vakapinda nayo mutemberi yaDhagoni vakaiisa parutivi rwaDhagoni.
Wɔsoaa Onyankopɔn Apam Adaka no kɔɔ Dagon abosonnan mu. Wɔde kosii ohoni Dagon nkyɛn.
3 Vanhu veAshidhodhi pavakamuka mangwanani-ngwanani zuva raitevera, wanei hoyo Dhagoni akawira pasi nechiso pamberi peareka yaJehovha! Vakatora Dhagoni vakamudzosera panzvimbo yake.
Nanso ade kyee a Asdod kurowmma no kɔhwɛe no, na Dagon ahwe fam wɔ Awurade Apam Adaka no anim a nʼanim butuw fam. Enti wɔmaa ohoni no so gyinaa hɔ bio.
4 Asi mangwanani aitevera pavakamuka wanei hoyo Dhagoni akawira pasi nechiso pamberi peareka yaJehovha! Musoro wake namaoko zvakanga zvadimbuka zvisisipo uye zviri pasi pachikumbaridzo chomukova, muviri wake bedzi ndiwo wakanga wangosara.
Nanso ade kyee anɔpa no, na asɛm koro no ara asi bio. Na Dagon no ahwe fam wɔ Awurade Apam Adaka no anim a nʼanim butuw fam. Saa bere yi de, na ne ti ne ne nsa abubu afi so deda ɔpon ano. Ne sin no na na aka da hɔ a ammubu.
5 Ndokusaka kusvika nanhasi kusina vaprista vaDhagoni kana vamwewo zvavo vanopinda mutemberi yaDhagoni paAshidhodhi vanotsika pachikumbaridzo chomukova.
Ɛno nti na ebesi nnɛ yi, Dagon asɔfo anaa obiara a obewura abosonnan mu hɔ no ntia aponnua no so no.
6 Ruoko rwaMwari rwakatambudza zvikuru vanhu veAshidhodhi nenzvimbo dzakaikomberedza; akauyisa kuparadzwa pamusoro pavo uye akavarova namamota.
Na Awurade maa pɔmpɔ bobɔɔ Asdodfo ne ne mpɔtam hɔfo no.
7 Vanhu veAshidhodhi pavakaona zvakanga zvichiitika vakati, “Areka yaMwari weIsraeri haifaniri kugara pano nesu nokuti ruoko rwake rwatitambudza zvikuru isu naDhagoni mwari wedu.”
Bere a Asdodfo huu asɛm a aba no, wɔkae se, “Yɛrentumi mma Onyankopɔn Apam Adaka no ntena yɛn nkyɛn. Otia yɛn! Ɔbɛsɛe yɛn ne yɛn nyame, Dagon nyinaa.”
8 Saka vakadana pamwe chete vatongi vose vavaFiristia vakavabvunza vachiti, “Toitei neareka yaMwari weIsraeri?” Vakapindura vachiti, “Itai kuti areka yaMwari weIsraeri iendeswe kuGati.” Saka vakabvisa areka yaMwari weIsraeri.
Enti wɔfrɛɛ Filistifo nkuropɔn anum mu asodifo nyinaa bisaa wɔn se, “Dɛn na yɛnyɛ Israel Nyankopɔn Apam Adaka yi?” Asodifo no susuw asɛm no ho na wobuae se, “Momfa Israel Nyankopɔn Apam Adaka no nkɔ Gat.” Enti wɔde Onyankopɔn Apam Adaka no kɔɔ Gat.
9 Asi mushure mokunge vaibvisa, ruoko rwaMwari rwakarwisana neguta iroro, uye akarivhundutsa nokuvhundutsa kukuru. Akarova vanhu veguta iroro, vakuru navadiki, namamota.
Nanso Bere a Onyankopɔn Apam Adaka no duu Gat no, Awurade maa pɔmpɔ bobɔɔ kurow no mufo, mpanyin ne mmofra, na wosuroo yiye.
10 Saka vakaendesa areka yaMwari kuEkironi. Areka yaMwari payakanga yava kupinda muEkironi, vanhu veEkironi vakadanidzira, vachiti, “Vauyisa areka yaMwari weIsraeri kuti vatiuraye isu navanhu vedu.”
Enti wɔde Onyankopɔn Apam Adaka no kɔɔ Ekron kuropɔn mu, na wɔde rewura hɔ no, Ekronfo no suu se, “Wɔde Israel Nyankopɔn Apam Adaka no reba yɛn nkyɛn de abekunkum yɛn nso.”
11 Saka vakadana pamwe chete vatongi vose vavaFiristia vakati, “Dzoserai areka yaMwari weIsraeri kwakare, regai idzokere kunzvimbo kwayo, nokuti ichatiuraya isu navanhu vedu.” Nokuti rufu rwakanga rwazadza guta nokuvhunduka; ruoko rwaMwari rwakanga rwaritambudza zvikuru.
Enti nnipa no frɛɛ Filistifo asodifo no nyinaa, srɛɛ wɔn se, “Monsan mfa Onyankopɔn Apam Adaka no mfi ha nkɔ ne man mu, anyɛ saa a, ebekunkum yɛn nyinaa.” Saa bere no na ɔyaredɔm a efi Onyankopɔn nkyɛn no afi ase dedaw ama huboa abɛtɔ kuropɔn no so.
12 Avo vasina kufa vakarohwa namamota uye kuchema kweguta kwakakwira kudenga.
Wɔn a wɔanwuwu no, wɔmaa pɔmpɔ bobɔɔ wɔn. Na agyaadwotwa baa baabiara.
