25 Mukumurwisa kwavo, vagari ava veShekemu vakaisa varume pamusoro pezvikomo kuti vavandire nokupamba mumwe nomumwe aipfuura, uye izvi zvakaziviswa kuna Abhimereki.
Kuom mano, jo-Shekem noketo ji ewi gode mondo omonje kendo omaa ngʼato angʼata mane okalo machiegni, kendo wachni noterne Abimelek.
26 Zvino Gaari mwanakomana waEbhedhi akaenda navanunʼuna vake kundogara muShekemu, uye vagari vomo vakavimba naye.
Koro noyudo ka Gaal wuod Ebed nodar gi owetene odhi Shekem, kendo jopinyno noketo yie margi kuome.

Bangʼ kane gisedhi e puothe kendo gipono mzabibu mi gikelogi kuonde bicho, negitimo nyasi e hekalu mar nyasachgi. E sa mane gichiemo kendo metho, ne gikwongʼo Abimelek.
28 Ipapo Gaari mwanakomana waEbhedhi akati, “Abhimereki ndianiko uye Shekemu ndianiko, kuti tive varanda vake? Ko, haazi mwanakomana waJerubhi-Bhaari, uye Zebhuri haazi mutevedzeri wake here? Shandirai vanhu vaHamori, baba vaShekemu! Seiko tichishandira Abhimereki?
Eka Gaal wuod Ebed nowacho niya, “Abimelek to en ngʼa, kendo Shekem bende en ngʼa, manyaka wabed e bwo lochne? Donge en wuod Jerub-Baal, to jalupne donge en Zebul? Tiuru ne jo-Hamor, ma wuon Shekem! Koro ere gima omiyo dwatine Abimelek?

Ka dine gibed e bwo lochna, to dine atieke, kendo dine awachone Abimelek ni, ‘Kel jolwenji duto mondo akedgo!’”
30 Zebhuri mubati weguta akati anzwa zvakataurwa naGaari mwanakomana waEbhedhi, akatsamwa zvikuru.
Kane Zebul ma jatend dala maduongʼno nowinjo gima Gaal wuod Ebed owacho, iye nowangʼ ahinya.
31 Akatuma nhume kuna Abhimereki muchivande achiti, “Gaari mwanakomana waEbhedhi uye navanunʼuna vake vakasvika kuShekemu uye vari kukuchidzira guta kuti rikurwisei.
Nooro joote ir Abimelek, mowacho niya, “Gaal wuod Ebed kod owetena osebiro Shekem kendo gidwaro mondo dala maduongʼ omonji.
32 Saka zvino, usiku, imi navanhu venyu munofanira kuzovandira muri muminda.

Ka chiengʼ wuok gokinyi, to suduru machiegni gi dala maduongʼ, mondo ka Gaal gi joge wuok e dala maduongʼ mondo omonju, to timnegiuru gimoro amora ma unyalo timo.”
34 Saka Abhimereki namauto ake akasimuka usiku akaenda kunzvimbo dzakavanda pedyo neShekemu mumapoka mana.
Omiyo Abimelek kod jolweny mage duto nowuok gotieno, ne gipogore e migepe angʼwen mi gibuto mondo gimonj Shekem.
35 Zvino Gaari mwanakomana waEbhedhi akanga abuda uye akanga amire pamukova wamasuo eguta apo Abhimereki navarwi vake vakasimuka pavakanga vakavanda.
Koro Gaal wuod Ebed nowuok oko kendo negichungʼ e dhoranga dala maduongʼ mana sa ma Abimelek gi jolweny mage nowuok e kuondegi mane giponde.
36 Gaari akati achivaona, akati kuna Zebhuri, “Tarira, vanhu vari kuburuka kubva pamusoro pamakomo!” Zebhuri akapindura akati, “Uri kuona mimvuri yamakomo savanhu iwe.”
Kane Gaal onenogi, nowachone Zebul niya, “Ne joma biro koa ewi gode!” Zebul nodwoko niya, “Tipo mag gode ema bwogi ni ji.”
37 Asi Gaari akadanidzirazve akati, “Tarira vanhu vari kuburuka kubva pakati penyika, rimwe boka riri kubva nenzira yomuti wavavuki.”
To Gaal nowachone kendo niya, “Ne joma biro koa e dier piny, kendo oganda maduongʼ biro koa yo koma opidhie yadh ajwoga.”
38 Ipapo Zebhuri akati kwaari, “Kutaura kwako kukuru kuripiko zvino, iyewe waiti, ‘Abhimereki ndianiko kuti isu tive varanda kwaari?’ Handiti ava ndivo vanhu vawaizvidza here? Chibuda undorwa navo!”
Eka Zebul nowachone niya, “Ere thoro wach maru koro, un mane uwacho ni, ‘Abimelek en ngʼa manyaka wabed mana e bwo lochne?’ Donge magi e joma ne ichayo? Koro wuoguru mondo uked kodgi!”
39 Saka Gaari akabuda akatungamirira vanhu veShekemu akarwa naAbhimereki.
Omiyo Gaal notelo ne jo-Shekem kendo mi gikedo gi Abimelek.
40 Abhimereki akamudzinganisa uye vazhinji vakafa vakuvadzwa mukutiza uku nzira yose kusvikira pamukova wokupinda pasuo reguta.
Abimelek nolawe, kendo ji mane ohinyore kanyo ne ngʼeny mochopo nyaka e dhorangach.
41 Abhimereki akagara muAruma, uye Zebhuri akadzinga Gaari navanunʼuna vake muShekemu.
Abimelek nodongʼ Aruma, kendo Zebul noriembo Gaal kod owetene oko mar Shekem.
42 Fume mangwana vanhu veShekemu vakabuda vakaenda kuminda, uye izvi zvakaziviswa kuna Abhimereki.
Kinyne jo-Shekem nowuok oko kama oyangore kendo ne gikone Abimelek wachni.
43 Saka akatora vanhu vake, akavakamura akavaisa mumapoka matatu akavandira musango. Akati achiona vanhu vachibuda muguta, akasimuka kuti avarwise.
Omiyo nogolo joge, mi opogogi e migepe adek kendo nochako kedo kodgi. Kane oneno ji ka wuok e dala maduongʼ, ne owuok mondo oked kodgi.
44 Abhimereki namapoka aakanga anawo vakamhanyira pamukova wokupinda pasuo reguta. Ipapo mapoka maviri akamhanyira vaya vakanga vari kuminda vakavauraya.
Abimelek kod kanyakla mane ni kode noreto kochiko kamoro e dhoranga dala maduongʼ. Eka migepe ariyo noreto odhi ir ji duto mane ni e pewe mine ginegogi duto.
45 Zuva rose iroro, Abhimereki akarwisa kwazvo guta kusvikira aritapa uye auraya vanhu varo. Ipapo akaparadza guta uye akakusha munyu pamusoro paro.
Odiechiengno duto Abimelek nokedo matek gi dala maduongʼ manyaka okawe kendo onego joma nodak e iye. Eka noketho dalano kendo nokworo chumbi kuome duto.
46 Vachinzwa izvi vagari vomushongwe yeShekemu, vakapinda munhare dzetemberi yaEri-Bheriti.
Kane ji owinjo wachno, joma nodak kama oger motingʼore gi malo mar Shekem nodhi kama oger motegno mar hekalu mar El-Berith.
47 Abhimereki akati anzwa kuti vakanga vakaungana ipapo,
Kane Abimelek owinjo nine gisechokore kanyo,
48 Iye navanhu vake vose vakakwira muGomo reZarimoni. Akatora demo akagura matavi, akaasimudza akaaisa pamapfudzi ake. Akarayira varume vaaiva navo akati, “Kurumidzai! Itai zvamandiona ndichiita!”
en kaachiel gi joge duto negidhi e Got Zalmon. Abimelek nokawo le mi otongʼogo bad yath moro, mi notingʼe e goke. Nochiwo chik ne joma nenikode niya, “Uneno gima atimoni! Timuru kamano piyo!”
49 Saka varume vose vakagura matavi vakatevera Abhimereki. Vakaatutira pamusoro penhare ndokuitungidza nomoto vanhu vari mukati. Saka vanhu vose vaiva mushongwe yeShekemu, varume navakadzi vanenge chiuru chimwe chete vakafawo.
Omiyo jogo duto notongʼo bede yath mi giluwo bangʼ Abimelek. Negichano yiendego e kor ot mar hekaluno gi oko eka ne gimoko mach kuom ji ei dalano. Omiyo ji duto mane nitiere kama oger motingʼore gi malo mar Shekem notho, chwo kod mon madirom ji alufu achiel.
50 Shure kwaizvozvo Abhimereki akaenda kuTebhezi akarikomba uye akaritapa.
Bangʼ mano, Abimelek nodhi Thebez mine olwore kendo omonje.
51 Kunyange zvakadaro, mukati meguta makanga mune shongwe yakasimba, munova ndimo makatizira varume vose navakadzi, navanhu vose veguta. Vakazvikiyira mukati vakakwira padenga reshongwe.

52 Abhimereki akaenda kushongwe iyo uye akairwisa. Asi akati achiswedera pamukova weshongwe kuti aipise nomoto,
Abimelek nodhi e kama oger motegnono mondo omi omonje. To kane ochopo machiegni gi dhoranga kama oger motegnono mondo omokie mach,

54 Pakarepo akadana mutakuri wenhumbi dzake dzokurwa akati, “Vhomora munondo wako undiuraye, kuti vasazoti, ‘Akaurayiwa nomukadzi.’” Saka muranda wake akamubaya akafa.
Noluongo jatingʼne gik lweny mapiyo mowachone niya, “Wuodh liganglani kendo inega, mondo kik giwach ni, ‘Dhako ema nonege.’” Omiyo jatichne nowuodho ligangla mochwowego kendo otho.
