Ndalogo jo-Israel ne onge gi ruoth. Kendo e ndalogo joka Dan ne manyo kargi giwegi ma ginyalo dakie, nikech ne pod ok giyudo kar dak e dhout jo-Israel.
2 Saka vaDhani vakatuma varwi vashanu vaibva kuZora neEshitaori kuti vandosora nyika uye vaitarisise. Varume ava vakanga vachimirira dzimba dzavo dzose. Vakavaudza kuti, “Endai munotarisisa nyika.” Varume vakapinda munyika yezvikomo yaEfuremu vakasvika paimba yaMika, vakavatapo.
Omiyo jo-Dan nooro jolweny abich moa Zora gi Eshtaol mondo onon pinyno kendo ongʼe kaka pinyno chalo. Jogi nochungʼne dhout gigo duto. Negiwachonegi niya, “Dhiuru mondo unon pinyno.” Jogo nodonjo e piny gode mag Efraim kendo negidhi e od Mika, kama ne ginindoe.
3 Vakati vava pedyo nemba yaMika, vakaziva inzwi rejaya muRevhi; saka vakatsaukiramo vakamubvunza vachiti, “Ndianiko akakuuyisa kuno? Unobatei pano? Seiko uri pano?”
Kane gichopo machiegni gi od Mika, ne giwinjo dwond ja-Lawi moro ma wuowi; omiyo negidonjo kanyo mi gipenje niya, “Ngʼama nokeli ka? Angʼo ma itimo ka? Angʼo ma omiyo in ka?”
4 Akavataurira zvaakanga aitirwa naMika, akati, “Akandipa basa uye ndiri muprista wake.”
Nonyisogi gima Mika nosetimone, kendo owacho niya, “Osekawa kaka jatije kendo an jadolo mare.”
5 Ipapo vakati kwaari, “Tapota, tibvunzire Mwari kuti tizive kana rwendo rwedu ruchabudirira.”
Eka negiwachone niya, “Kiyie to penjnwa Nyasaye ka wuodhwa dhi bedo maber.”
6 Muprista akavapindura akati, “Endai henyu norugare. Rwendo rwenyu rwatendwa naJehovha.”
Jadolo nodwokogi niya, “Dhiuru gi kwe. Wuodhu osepwodhi gi Jehova Nyasaye.”
7 Saka varume vashanyi vaya vakabvapo vakandosvika kuRaishi, uko kwavakandoona kuti vanhu vakanga vagere zvakanaka, sezvakaita vaSidhoni, vasina chavanofungidzira uye vagere zvakanaka. Uye sezvo nyika yavo yakanga isingashayiwi chinhu, vakanga vakabudirira. Uyezve, vakanga vagere kure nava Sidhoni uye vakanga vasina ushamwari naani zvake.
Omiyo ji abichgo noa mi gichopo Laish, kama negineno ka ji odak kanyo gi kwe, mana kaka jo-Sidon, maonge paro moro amora kata kibaji kendo negidak gi kwe. To nikech pinygi ne ok ochando gimoro amora, ne gin joma omewo. Bende, negidak mochwolore gi jo-Sidon kendo ne gionge gi osiep gi ngʼato angʼata.

9 Vakapindura vakati, “Uyai, tivarwise! Takaona kuti nyika yacho yakanaka kwazvo. Hamungaiti chimwe chinhu here? Musanonoka kuendako kundoitora.
Negidwokogi niya, “Biuru mondo wamonjgi! Waseneno ka piny cha ber ahinya. Donge udhi timo gimoro? Kik udeki ma ok udhi kuno kendo ukaw pinyno.
10 Pamunosvikako muchawana mumaoko enyu naMwari, nyika isina kana chainoshayiwa.”
Ka uchopo kuno, to unuyud jogo ma ok oikore ne lweny kendo gi piny malach ma Nyasaye oseketo e lwetu, piny maonge gima ochando kendo man-gi gik moko duto.”
11 Ipapo mazana matanhatu avarume vaibva kumhuri yavaDhani vakapakata zvombo kuti vandorwa, vakasimuka vachibva kuZora neEshitaori.
Eka ji mia auchiel moa e dhood joka Dan, mane oikore ne lweny, nowuok oa Zora kod Eshtaol.
12 Vari munzira yavo vakadzika misasa pedyo neKiriati Jearimi muJudha. Ndokusaka nzvimbo iri kumavirira eKiriati Jearimi ichinzi Mahane Dhani kusvikira zuva ranhasi.
Kane pod gidhi negiloso kambi but Kiriath Jearim manie piny Juda. Mano ema omiyo piny mantiere yo podho chiengʼ mar Kiriath Jearim pod iluongo ni Mahane Dan nyaka chil kawuono.
13 Kubva ipapo vakaenda kunyika yezvikomo yaEfuremu uye vakasvika kumba kwaMika.
Kane gia kanyo negidhi e piny gode mag Efraim ma gichopo e od Mika.
14 Ipapo varume vashanu vakanga vandosora nyika yeRaishi vakati kuhama dzavo, “Munoziva here kuti imwe yedzimba idzi ine efodhi, vamwe vamwari, chifananidzo chakavezwa nechifananidzo chakaumbwa? Zvino imi munoziva zvokuita.”
Eka chwo abich mane obiro nono piny Laish nowachone owetegi niya, “Bende ungʼeyo ni achiel kuom udigi nigi law mayom mar dolo miluongo ni efod, nyiseche moko manono, kod kido mobaw gi fedha mag nyiseche manono? Koro ungʼeyo gima onego utim.”
15 Saka vakatsaukiramo vakaenda kumba kwejaya muRevhi kumba kwaMika vakandomukwazisa.
Omiyo negidhi kanyo ma gidonjo e od ja-Lawi ma wuowi mane ni ka Mika kendo gimose.
16 Mazana matanhatu avaDhani, vakapakata zvombo zvokurwa, vakamira pamukova wokupinda nawo pasuo.
Jolweny mia auchiel ma jo-Dan moikore ne lweny nochungʼ e dhorangach.
17 Varume vashanu vakanga vandosora nyika vakapinda mukati vakatora chifananidzo chakavezwa, efodhi, vamwe vamwari nechifananidzo chakaumbwa asi muprista namazana matanhatu avarume vakanga vakapakata zvombo zvokurwa nazvo vakamira pamukova wesuo.
Ji abich mane osetimo nonro matut mar pinyno nodonjo ei ot mokawo kido mopa machalo gi law mayom mar dolo miluongo ni efod, gi nyiseche manono mag udi, kod mago mopa, ka jadolo kod jolweny mia auchiel to ochungʼ e dhorangach.
18 Varume ava vakati vapinda mumba maMika, vakatora mufananidzo wakavezwa, efodhi, vamwe vamwari nechifananidzo chakaumbwa, muprista akati kwavari, “Muri kuiteiko?”
Kane jogi odhi e od Mika ma gikawo kido mopa, law mayom mar dolo miluongo ni efod, nyiseche manono mag udi kod nyiseche mopa, jadolo nowachonegi niya, “Angʼo mutimono?”
19 Vakamupindura vakati, “Nyarara! Usambotaura shoko. Handei tose, ugova baba vedu nomuprista wedu. Handiti zviri nani kushumira rudzi neimba iri muIsraeri somuprista pachinzvimbo cheimba yomunhu mumwe here?”
Negidwoke niya, “Lingʼ thi! Kik iwach gimoro amora. Dhi kodwa, kendo ibed wuonwa kendo jadolowa. Donge ber ka itiyone anywola kod dhoot Israel kaka jadolo moloyo mana tiyone jood ngʼato achiel?”
20 Ipapo muprista akafara. Akatora efodhi, vamwe vamwari nechifananidzo chakavezwa akaenda pamwe chete navanhu.
Bangʼe jadolo nobedo gi mor. Nokawo law mayom mar dolo miluongo ni efod, nyiseche manono mag udi kod kido mopa kendo nodhi gi jogo.
21 Vakaisa vana vavo vaduku, zvipfuwo zvavo nenhumbi dzavo pamberi pavo, vakasimuka vakaenda.
Negichako wuoth ma gia ka nyithindgi matindo gi jambgi kod gigegi otelo e nyimgi.
22 Vakati vafamba chinhambwe kubva pamba yaMika varume vaigara pedyo naMika vakadanwa pamwe chete vakatevera vaDhani vakavabata.
Kane gisedhi mochwolore gi od Mika, jogo mane odak machiegni gi Mika noluong kanyakla kendo negilawo jo-Dan.
23 Pavakadaidzira mushure mavo, vaDhani vakatendeuka vakati kuna Mika, “Wakaita seiko iwe, zvawadana vanhu vako kuti vazorwa?”
Kane gigoyo koko bangʼ-gi, jo-Dan nolokore kendo owacho ne Mika niya, “En angʼo marach kodi momiyo ne ioro wach ne jowu mondo oked kodwa?”
24 Akapindura akati, “Makatora vamwari vandakaita, uye muprista wangu mukaenda naye. Chii zvino chandasarirwa nacho? Mungabvunza seiko muchiti, ‘Wakaita seiko iwe?’”
Nodwoko niya, “Ne ukawo nyiseche mane aloso, kod jadolo matiyona kendo mi uwuok. En angʼo kendo makoro an-go? Ere kaka unyalo penjo, ‘En angʼo marach kodi?’”
25 VaDhani vakapindura vakati, “Usaita nharo nesu, kuti varume vane hasha varege kukurwisa, uye iwe nemhuri yako mukazorasikirwa noupenyu hwenyu.”
Jo-Dan nodwoko niya, “We dwokori kodwa, ka ok kamano, to joma igi wangʼ moingo tekregi biro monji, bangʼe in kod joodi ibiro negi.”
26 Saka vaDhani vakaenda zvavo, uye Mika, achiona kuti vakanga vaine simba kukunda iye, akadzoka akaenda kumusha kwake.
Omiyo jo-Dan nodhi nyime gi wuoth, kendo ka Mika noneno ka tekregi pekne, nowuok mi odok dalane.
27 Ipapo vakatora zvakanga zvagadzirwa naMika, uye muprista wake, vakaenda kuRaishi, vakandorwa navanhu vakanga vasina chavanofungidzira vano rugare. Vakavauraya nomunondo vakavapisira maguta avo nomoto.
Bangʼe negikawo gigo mane Mika oseloso, kod jadolo mare, kendo negidhi Laish, mondo giked gi jogo man-gi kwe kendo maonge gi ikruok moro amora mar kedo. Negimonjogi gi lingangla kendo negiwangʼo dala maduongʼno gi mach.
28 Pakanga pasina munhu anovanunura nokuti vaigara kure neSidhoni uye vasina ushamwari naani zvake. Guta rakanga riri mumupata waiva pedyo neBheti Rehobhi. VaDhani vakavakazve guta vakagaramo.
Onge ngʼama ne nyalo resogi nikech negidak mochwolore gi Sidon kendo ne onge watgi moro amora kanyo. Dala maduongʼno ne nitie e holo man but Beth Rehob. Jo-Dan nochako gero dala maduongʼno kendo negidak kanyo.
29 Vakaritumidza kuti Dhani zita ratateguru wavo Dhani, akanga aberekerwa Israeri, kunyange raimbonzi Raishi.
Negichako kanyo ni Dan bangʼ kwargi Dan, mane wuod Israel; kata obedo ni dala maduongʼno ne iluongo chon ni Laish.
30 Ikoko vaDhani vakazvimisira chifananidzo, uye Jonatani mwanakomana waGerishomi, mwanakomana waMozisi, uye vanakomana vake vakava vaprista vorudzi rwaDhani kusvikira panguva youtapwa hwenyika.
Joka Dan nochungo kido manono kanyo mondo gilam, kendo negiketo Jonathan wuod Gershom, ma wuod Musa, kod yawuote obedo jodolo ne dhood joka Dan nyaka ne ochopo kinde mane oter pinyno e twech.
31 Vakaramba vachishandisa zvifananidzo zvakaitwa naMika, nguva dzose imba yaMwari payakanga iri muShiro.
Negidhi nyime ka gitiyone nyiseche manono mane Mika oseloso, to kindegi duto od Nyasaye neni Shilo.
