8 Vakuru veGireadhi vakati kwaari, “Zvisinei hazvo, isu hedu tiri kudzokera kwamuri iye zvino; handei tose kundorwa navaAmoni, uye muchava mukuru wedu pamusoro pavose vagere muGireadhi.”
Jodong Gilead nodwoke niya, “Kata kamano, wabiro iri koro; bi kodwa mondo waked gi jo-Amon, kendo inibed jatendwa kaachiel gi jogo duto modak Gilead.”
9 Jefuta akapindura akati, “Ngatimboti madzokera neni kundorwa navaAmoni uye Jehovha akavapa kwandiri, ndichava mukuru wenyu zvechokwadi here?”
Jeftha nodwoko niya, “Ka dipo ni udwoka mondo aked gi jo-Amon kendo Jehova Nyasaye omiyagi; bende anabed jatendu adier?”
10 Vakuru veGireadhi vakapindura vakati, “Jehovha ndiye chapupu chedu; zvirokwazvo tichaita sezvaunoreva.”
Jodong Gilead nodwoko niya, “Jehova Nyasaye obed janeno marwa; adier wabiro timo kaka iwachono.”
11 Saka Jefuta akaenda navakuru veGireadhi, vanhu vakamuita mukuru wavo uye nomutungamiri wehondo. Uye akadzokorora mashoko ake ose pamberi paJehovha muMizipa.
Omiyo Jeftha nodhi gi jodong Gilead, kendo ji nokete obedo jatelo kendo jatend lweny. Kendo nonwoyo wechegi duto e nyim Jehova Nyasaye kama iluongo ni Mizpa.
12 Ipapo Jefuta akatuma nhume kuna mambo wavaAmoni nomubvunzo wokuti, “Mhosva yamunayo nesu ndeyeiko zvamunorwisa nyika yedu?”
Bangʼe Jeftha nooro joote ir ruodh jo-Amon kapenje niya, “En angʼo milaro kodwa, momiyo idwaro kedo kodwa?”
13 Mambo wavaAmoni akapindura nhume dzaJefuta achiti, “VaIsraeri pavakabuda muIjipiti, vakatora nyika yangu kubva kuArinoni kusvikira kuJabhoki, kwose nokuJorodhani. Zvino idzosei norugare.”
Ruodh jo-Amon nodwoko joote Jeftha niya, “Kane jo-Israel owuok Misri, negikawo pinya chakre aora Arnon nyaka aora Jabok mi gichopo nyaka aora Jordan, koro duognago gi kwe.”
14 Jefuta akatumazve nhume kuna mambo wavaAmoni
Jeftha nooro joote mondo odog ir ruodh jo-Amon,
15 achiti, “Zvanzi naJefuta: Israeri haina kutora nyika yeMoabhu kana nyika yavaAmoni.
kawacho niya, “Ma e gima Jeftha wacho: Jo-Israel ne ok okawo piny jo-Moab kata piny jo-Amon.
16 Asi pavakabuda muIjipiti, Israeri yakaenda nomurenje kusvikira kuGungwa Dzvuku uye nokumusoro kuKadheshi.
To kane gia Misri, jo-Israel noluwo thim nyaka Nam Makwar kendo ma gichopo Kadesh.
17 Ipapo Israeri yakatuma nhume kuna mambo weEdhomu, ichiti, ‘Titendereiwo kupfuura nomunyika yenyu,’ asi mambo weEdhomu akaramba kunzwa. Vakatumawo nhume kuna mambo weMoabhu, naiyewo akaramba. Saka vakagara paKadheshi.
Eka jo-Israel nooro joote ir ruodh jo-Edom, kawacho niya, ‘Miya thuolo mondo wakal e pinyu,’ to ruodh Edom ne ok nyal winjogi. Nochako ooro joote ir ruodh Moab, to en bende nodagi. Kuom mano jo-Israel nodak Kadesh.
18 “Shure kwaizvozvo vakafamba nomurenje, vachitenderera nyika dzeEdhomu neMoabhu, vakandodzika musasa kuno rumwe rutivi rweArinoni. Havana kupinda munyika yeMoabhu, nokuti Arinoni waiva muganhu wayo.
“Bangʼe negiwuotho e thim, ka ginono pinje mag Edom gi Moab, ka gikalo yo wuok chiengʼ mar piny Moab mine gidhi gibworo e bath aora Arnon. Ne ok gidonjo e alap mar jo-Moab, nimar Arnon ema tongʼ mare.
19 “Ipapo vaIsraeri vakatuma nhume kuna Sihoni mambo wavaAmori, akanga achitonga muHeshibhoni, akati kwaari, ‘Titendereiwo kupfuura nomunyika yenyu tichienda kunzvimbo yedu.’
“Bangʼe Jakobo nooro joote ir Sihon ruodh jo-Amor mane ruoth Heshbon, kendo mi nowachone ni, ‘Yie iwewa wakalie pinyu wadhi e karwa owuon.’
20 Kunyange zvakadaro, Sihoni haana kuvimba navaIsraeri kuti vapfuure nomunyika yake. Akaunganidza vanhu vake vose vakandodzika musasa paJahazi uye vakarwa navaIsraeri.
Kata kamano, Sihon ne ok nigi adiera gi jo-Israel mondo gikal e pinye. Nochoko joge duto kendo mi gichokore Jahaz mondo giked gi jo-Israel.
21 “Ipapo Jehovha, Mwari waIsraeri, akaisa Sihoni navanhu vake vose mumaoko avaIsraeri, uye vakavakunda. Israeri yakatora nyika yose yavaAmori vaigara munyika iyo,
“Eka Jehova Nyasaye, ma Nyasach Israel, nochiwo Sihon kod joge duto e lwet jo-Israel, kendo negiloyogi. Jo-Israel nokawo puothe jo-Amor mane odak e pinyno,
22 vakaitapa yose kubva paArinoni kusvikira kuJabhoki uye kubva kurenje kusvikira kuJorodhani.
ka gikawe duto chakre e aora Arnon nyaka e aora Jabok kendo koa e thim nyaka e aora Jordan.
23 “Zvino sezvo Jehovha, Mwari waIsraeri akadzinga vaAmori pamberi pavanhu vake Israeri, iwe une kodzero ipi yokuti uitore?
“Ka koro Jehova Nyasaye, ma Nyasach Israel, oseriembo jo-Amor e nyim joge Israel, en thuolo mane ma in-go mar kawe?
24 Ko, hautori here zvaunopiwa namwari wako Kemoshi? Naizvozvo zvose zvatinopiwa naJehovha Mwari wedu, ndizvo zvatichatora.
Donge ubiro mana kawo gima Kemosh ma nyasachu omiyou? Kamano bende, gimoro amora ma Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachwa omiyowa, wabiro kawo.
25 Ko, iwe uri nani kupfuura Bharaki mwanakomana waZipori mambo weMoabhu here? Akambopopotedzana navaIsraeri kana kurwa navo here?
Iparo ni ilich maloyo Balak wuod Zipor, ma ruodh Moab? Bende nodhawo gi Israel kata kedo kodgi?
26 Israeri yakagara muHeshibhoni, Aroeri, nemisha yakapoteredza uye namaguta ose akatarisana neArinoni. Wakaregereiko kuatora panguva iyoyo?
Kuom higni mia adek Israel nodak Heshbon, gi Aroer, gi alwora mar kuondego kod mier duto mokiewo gi aora Arnon. En angʼo ma nomonou kawogi e hignigo?
27 Ini handina kukutadzira asi iwe ndiwe wava kundikanganisira nokuda kurwa neni. Jehovha, iye mutongi ngaatonge, ngaatonge gakava iri nhasi riri pakati pavaIsraeri navaAmoni.”
Wan pok wakethonu, to un koro utimonwa marach kuom kedo kodwa. Mad uwe Jehova Nyasaye, ma jangʼad bura ongʼad burano odiechiengʼ ma kawuononi e kind jo-Israel gi jo-Amon.”
28 Kunyange zvakadaro, mambo weAmoni, haana kuteerera nhume dzaJefuta dzaakatuma.
Kata kamano, ruodh jo-Amon ne ok odewo ote mane joote Jeftha okelone.
29 Ipapo Mweya waJehovha wakauya pamusoro paJefuta. Akayambuka Gireadhi neManase, akapfuura napaMizipa yeGireadhi, uye kubva ipapo akafamba akandorwa navaAmoni.
Eka Roho mar Jehova Nyasaye nobiro kuom Jeftha. Noluwo piny Gilead gi Manase, kokalo Mizpa mar Gilead, kendo koa kanyo nodhi momonjo jo-Amon.
30 Uye Jefuta akaita mhiko kuna Jehovha akati, “Kana mukaisa vaAmoni mumaoko angu,
Kendo Jeftha nokwongʼore ne Jehova Nyasaye niya, “Ka inichiw jo-Amon e lweta,
31 chose chichabuda napamukova weimba yangu kuzosangana neni pakudzoka kwangu ndakunda vaAmoni, chichava chaJehovha, uye ndichachibayira sechipiriso chinopiswa.”
to ngʼato angʼata mani wuog e dalana mondo orom koda bangʼ ka aseloyo jo-Amon nobed mar Jehova Nyasaye, kendo anachiwe kaka misango miwangʼo pep.”
32 Ipapo Jefuta akabuda kundorwa navaAmoni, uye Jehovha akavapa mumaoko ake.
Eka Jeftha nowuok mondo odhi oked gi jo-Amon, kendo Jehova Nyasaye nochiwogi e lwete.
33 Akaparadza maguta makumi maviri kubva kuAroeri kusvikira pedyo neMiniti, akandoguma kuAbheri Keramimi. Nokudaro Israeri yakakunda Amoni.
Noketho mier piero ariyo kochakore e aora Aroer nyaka Minith, mochopo nyaka Abel Keramim. Mano e kaka jo-Israel nokawo Amon.
34 Jefuta akati odzokera kumusha kwake kuMizipa, ndiani akazouya kuzomuchingamidza kunze kwomwanasikana wake, achitamba, matambureni achiridzwa! Ndiye akanga achingova mwana wake oga. Akanga asina mwanakomana kana mwanasikana kunze kwake iye oga.
Kane Jeftha odwogo dalane man Mizpa, noneno mana nyare kamiel kabiro romone! Ne en gi nyako achiel kende maonge wuowi kata nyako moro machielo.
35 Akati achimuona akabvarura nguo dzake uye akachema achiti, “Haiwa mwanasikana wangu! Wandishungurudza nokuti ndaita mhiko kuna Jehovha yandisingagoni kuputsa.”
Kane onene, noyiecho lepe mi oywak niya, “Yaye Nyara! Isemiya abedo modhier kendo gi thagruok, nikech ne asesingora ne Jehova Nyasaye ma ok anyal ketho.”
36 Akapindura akati, “Baba vangu, mapa shoko renyu kuna Jehovha. Ndiitirei henyu sezvamakavimbisa, sezvo zvino Jehovha akatsivira vavengi venyu, ivo vaAmoni.
Nodwoko niya, “Wuonwa, isechiwo wachni ne Jehova Nyasaye. Timna mana kaka ne isesingori, nikech Jehova Nyasaye koro oseresi e lwet wasiki, ma jo-Amon.”
37 Asi nditenderei henyu chikumbiro chimwe chete ichi. Ndipei henyu mwedzi miviri kuti ndiende kuzvikomo ndinochema pamwe chete neshamwari dzangu, nokuti handichazowanikwi.”
Nomedo wachone niya, “To yie itimna kwayo achiel kende. Miya dweche ariyo mondo aba ewi gode kendo aywagi gi osiepena, nikech ok bi kenda.”
38 Iye akati, “Ungaenda hako.” Uye akamutendera kuti aende kwemwedzi miviri. Iye navamwe vasikana vakaenda kuzvikomo vakandochema nokuti akanga asingazombowanikwi.
Nowachone niya, “Inyalo dhi.” Eka noweye modhi kuom dweche ariyo. En kaachiel gi nyiri mamoko nodhi ewi gode kendo ne giywak nikech ok bi kende.
39 Shure kwemwedzi miviri akadzoka kuna baba vake uye vakaita kwaari sezvavakanga vapika. Uye akanga ari mhandara. Ndipo pakabva tsika yavaIsraeri
Bangʼ dweche ariyo, nodok ir wuon mare kendo wuon-gi notimo mana kaka nosesingore. Ne en nyako ngili. Kochakore e ndalono, jo-Israel noketo chik ni
