Samusoni agĩikũrũka Timina marĩ hamwe na ithe na nyina. Na rĩrĩa makuhĩrĩirie mĩgũnda ya mĩthabibũ ya Timina-rĩ, o rĩmwe kĩana kĩa mũrũũthi gĩgĩũka na kũrĩ we kĩmũraramĩire.
6 Mweya waJehovha wakauya pamusoro pake nesimba zvokuti akabvambura shumba napakati namaoko ake kunge anobvambura mbudzana.
Roho wa Jehova agĩũka igũrũ rĩake na hinya nginya agĩtarũranga mũrũũthi ũcio na moko matheri o ta ũrĩa angĩtarũranga koori. No ndaigana kwĩra ithe o na kana nyina ũrĩa ekĩte.
7 Ipapo akaburuka akandotaura nomukadzi, uye aimuda.
Nake agĩcooka agĩikũrũka makĩaranĩria na mũndũ-wa-nja ũcio, na akĩmwenda.
8 Mushure menguva yakati kuti, paakadzokera kundomuroora, akatsauka kundoona mutumbi weshumba. Mukati macho makanga mava nebumha renyuchi nouchi,
Thuutha ũcio, rĩrĩa aacookaga akamũhikie-rĩ, agĩkerũra oone kĩimba kĩa mũrũũthi ũcio. Thĩinĩ wakĩo haarĩ na mũrumbĩ wa njũkĩ na ũũkĩ,

ũrĩa aatahire na hĩ, agĩthiĩ akĩrĩĩaga. Na rĩrĩa aakinyĩrire aciari ake, akĩmagaĩra ũũkĩ ũcio o nao makĩũrĩa. Nowe ndaigana kũmeera atĩ aarutĩte ũũkĩ ũcio kĩimba-inĩ kĩa mũrũũthi.
10 Zvino baba vake vakaburuka kundoona mukadzi uya. Uye Samusoni akaita mutambo ikoko, setsika yaiitwa nezvikomba.
Na rĩrĩ, ithe agĩikũrũka akoone mũndũ-wa-nja ũcio. Nake Samusoni akĩrugithia iruga kũu, o ta ũrĩa warĩ mũtugo wa ahikania.
11 Paakasvika, akapiwa shamwari makumi matatu.
Na rĩrĩa andũ maamuonire, makĩmũhe aanake mĩrongo ĩtatũ maikare nake.
12 Samusoni akati kwavari, “Regai ndikutaurirei chirahwe. Kana mukagona kuchidudzira mukati mamazuva manomwe omutambo, ini ndichakupai nguo dzomucheka dzinosvika makumi matatu nehanzu makumi matatu.
Samusoni akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Rekei ndĩmũgwatie ndaĩ, muona mwamĩtaũra mĩthenya-inĩ ĩno mũgwanja ya iruga-rĩ, nĩngamũhe nguo cia gatani mĩrongo ĩtatũ na nguo cia kũgarũrĩra mĩrongo ĩtatũ.
13 Kana musingagoni kudzidudzira, imi munofanira kundipa nguo dzomucheka makumi matatu namakumi matatu ehanzu.” Ivo vakati, “Tiudze chirahwe chako. Rega tichinzwe.”
Mwaremwo nĩ kũmĩtaũra-rĩ, no nginya mũũhe nguo cia gatani mĩrongo ĩtatũ, na nguo cia kũgarũrĩra mĩrongo ĩtatũ.” Nao makĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Ta gĩtũgwatie ndaĩ ĩyo yaku, tũmĩigue.”
14 Akapindura akati, “Kumudyi kwakabuda chokudya; kubva kune chine simba kwakabuda zvinotapira.” Havana kugona kupa mhinduro kwamazuva matatu.
Nake akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Kuuma nyamũ ndĩani, gũkiuma kĩndũ kĩngĩrĩĩo; kuuma kũrĩ nyamũ ĩrĩ hinya, gũkiuma kĩndũ kĩrĩ mũrĩo.” Na handũ ha mĩthenya ĩtatũ, matiahotete kũmĩtaũra.
15 Pazuva rechina, vakati kumukadzi waSamusoni, “Nyengetedza murume wako kuti atsanangure chirahwe kuti tiregere kukupisai mukafa iwe neveimba yababa vako. Munotikoka pano kuzotibira nhai?”
Naguo mũthenya wa ĩna wakinya, makĩĩra mũtumia wa Samusoni atĩrĩ, “Heenereria mũthuuriguo nĩguo atũtaũrĩre ndaĩ ĩyo, kana tũgũcine wee na nyũmba ya thoguo nginya mũkue. Anga mũtwĩtĩte gũkũ nĩguo mũtũtunye indo ciitũ?”
16 Ipapo mukadzi waSamusoni akazviwisira paari, achichema akati, “Unondivenga iwe! Haundidi chaizvo izvo. Wakapa vanhu vokwangu chirahwe, asi hauna kundiudza dudziro yacho.” Akapindura akati, “Handina kutongochitsanangurira baba vangu kana mai vangu, saka ndingachitsanangura seiko kwauri?”
Nake mũtumia wa Samusoni akĩĩgũithia harĩ we, akĩrĩraga akiugaga atĩrĩ, “Wee nĩũũthũire! Wee ndũnyendete o na atĩa. Ũgwatĩtie andũ aitũ ndaĩ, na nĩũregete kũndaũrĩra ndaĩ ĩyo.” Nake akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “O na baba na maitũ ndimataũrĩire, wee-rĩ, ngũgĩgũtaũrĩra nĩkĩ?”
17 Akachema kwamazuva manomwe ose omutambo. Saka akapedzisira amuudza pazuva rechinomwe, nokuti akaramba achingomumanikidza. Iye akabva azotsanangurira vanhu vake chirahwe.
Akĩrĩra mĩthenya ĩyo yothe mũgwanja ya iruga rĩu, na mũthenya wa mũgwanja Samusoni akĩmumbũrĩra, nĩ ũndũ wa ũrĩa aikarire akĩmũringagĩrĩria. Nake mũtumia ũcio agĩcooka agĩtaarĩria andũ ao ndaĩ ĩyo.
18 Pazuva rechinomwe, zuva risati radoka, varume vomuguta vakati kwaari, “Chiiko chinotapira souchi? Chiiko chine simba seshumba?” Samusoni akati kwavari, “Dai manga musina kurima netsiru rangu, mungadai musina kugona kududzira chirahwe changu.”
Riũa rĩtanathũa mũthenya ũcio wa mũgwanja, andũ a itũũra rĩu makĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Nĩ kĩĩ kĩrĩ mũrĩo gũkĩra ũũkĩ? Nĩ kĩĩ kĩrĩ hinya gũkĩra mũrũũthi?” Nake Samusoni akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Korwo mũtinarĩma na moori yakwa-rĩ, mũtingĩahota gũtaũra ndaĩ yakwa.”
19 Ipapo Mweya waJehovha wakauya pamusoro pake nesimba. Akaburuka akaenda kuAshikeroni, akandouraya varume makumi matatu, akakutunura zvinhu zvavo akapa nguo dzavo kuna avo vakadudzira chirahwe. Akatsamwa kwazvo akaenda kumba kwababa vake.
Nake Roho wa Jehova agĩũka igũrũ rĩa Samusoni na hinya mũno. Nake agĩikũrũka nginya Ashikeloni, akĩũraga andũ mĩrongo ĩtatũ akuo, akĩmatunya indo ciao, na akĩheana nguo ciao kũrĩ arĩa maataũrĩte ndaĩ ĩyo. Na akĩambata agĩthiĩ gwa ithe mũciĩ arakarĩte mũno.
20 Uye mukadzi waSamusoni akapiwa kushamwari yakanga yamuperekedza pasvitsa.
Nake mũtumia ũcio wa Samusoni akĩheanwo kũrĩ mũratawe ũrĩa wamũrũgamĩrĩire ũhiki-inĩ wake.
