Samuu'Eel Kowaad 4
1 Oo hadalkii Samuu'eelna wuxuu soo gaadhay reer binu Israa'iil oo dhan. Oo reer binu Israa'iilna waxay u soo baxeen inay reer Falastiin la diriraan, oo waxay soo ag degeen Ebenceser; reer Falastiinna waxay soo degeen Afeeq.
Ilizwi likaSamuweli lafika kuIsrayeli wonke. UIsrayeli wasephuma ukuyamelana lamaFilisti empini, bamisa inkamba ngaseEbeni-Ezeri, lamaFilisti amisa inkamba eAfeki.
2 Oo reer Falastiinna waxay weerar isugu soo diyaariyeen reer binu Israa'iil; oo markii ay dagaalkii isugu yimaadeenna reer binu Israa'iil waa la jebiyey reer Falastiin hortooda; oo waxay ciidankii berrinka joogay ka laayeen afar kun oo nin.
AmaFilisti asezihlela ukumelana loIsrayeli; kwathi impi isabalala, uIsrayeli watshaywa phambi kwamaFilisti; njalo atshaya emaviyweni egangeni phose amadoda azinkulungwane ezine.
3 Oo markay dadkii xeradii yimaadeen ayay odayaashii reer binu Israa'iil yidhaahdeen, Maanta maxaa Rabbigu inoogu laayay reer Falastiin hortooda? Haddaba sanduuqii axdiga Rabbiga aynu Shiiloh ka soo qaadanno oo dhexdeenna ha yimaado, inuu inaga badbaadiyo gacanta cadaawayaasheenna.
Kwathi abantu befika enkambeni, abadala bakoIsrayeli bathi: INkosi isitshayeleni lamuhla phambi kwamaFilisti? Asizithatheleni eShilo umtshokotsho wesivumelwano seNkosi; nxa usiza phakathi kwethu uzasisindisa esandleni sezitha zethu.
4 Sidaas daraaddeed dadkii waxay u cid direen Shiiloh, oo waxay halkaas ka keeneen sanduuqii axdiga Rabbiga Ciidammada oo ku fadhiya Keruubiimta dushooda, oo Ceelii labadiisii wiil oo ahaa Hofnii iyo Fiinexaas iyana halkaasay la joogeen sanduuqa axdiga Ilaah.
Ngakho abantu bathumela eShilo, ukuthi bathathe khona umtshokotsho wesivumelwano seNkosi yamabandla, ehlala phakathi kwamakherubhi; lamadodana amabili kaEli, uHofini loPhinehasi, ayelapho lomtshokotsho wesivumelwano sikaNkulunkulu.
5 Oo markii sanduuqii axdiga Rabbigu soo galay xeradii ayaa reer binu Israa'iil oo dhammu waxay ku qayliyeen qaylo weyn ee dhulku la gariiray.
Kwasekusithi lapho umtshokotsho wesivumelwano seNkosi ufika enkambeni, uIsrayeli wonke wahlokoma ngokuhlokoma okukhulu kwaze kwaduma umhlaba.
6 Oo reer Falastiinna markay maqleen dhawaaqii qaylada ayay yidhaahdeen, Dhawaaqa qaylada weyn ee xeradii Cibraaniyadii ka baxaya micnihiisu waa maxay? Markaasay garteen inuu sanduuqii Rabbigu xeradii dhex yimid.
Lapho amaFilisti esizwa umsindo wokuhlokoma athi: Utshoni umsindo walokhukuhlokoma okukhulu enkambeni yamaHebheru? Asesazi ukuthi umtshokotsho weNkosi ufikile enkambeni.
7 Oo reer Falastiinna way cabsadeen, oo waxay yidhaahdeen, Ilaah baa xeradii soo galay. Oo haddana waxay yidhaahdeen, Hoog baa inagu dhacay! Waayo, hadda ka hor waxan oo kale lama arag.
AmaFilisti asesesaba, ngoba athi: UNkulunkulu ufikile enkambeni. Athi-ke: Maye kithi! Ngoba kakuzanga kwenzeke okunje mandulo.
8 Hoog baa inagu dhacaye! Bal yaa inaga samatabbixin doona ilaahyadan xoogga weyn gacantooda? Kuwanu waa ilaahyadii Masriyiinta ku laayay cidlada ee ku soo daayay belaayooyin cayn kasta ah.
Maye kithi! Ngubani ozasophula esandleni salaba onkulunkulu abalamandla? Laba ngonkulunkulu abatshaya amaGibhithe ngazo zonke inhlupheko enkangala.
9 Reer Falastiinow, xoog yeesha, oo raganimo isgeliya, yeydnan Cibraaniyada addoommo u noqone, sidii ay idiinku ahaayeen oo kale. Haddaba raganimo isgeliya oo dirira.
Qinani, libe ngamadoda, maFilisti, hlezi lisebenzele amaHebheru njengoba alisebenzela. Ngakho banini ngamadoda, lilwe.
10 Markaasay reer Falastiin dirireen, reer binu Israa'iilna waa la jebiyey, oo midkood waliba wuxuu ku cararay teendhadiisii. Oo maalintaas waxaa la laayay dad aad u badan; waayo, reer binu Israa'iil waxaa ka le'day soddon kun oo nin oo lug ah.
Ngakho amaFilisti alwa, loIsrayeli watshaywa, babalekela, ngulowo lalowo ethenteni lakhe. Njalo kwaba lokubulawa okukhulu kakhulu, ngoba kwawa koIsrayeli abayizinkulungwane ezingamatshumi amathathu abahamba ngenyawo.
11 Oo sanduuqii Ilaahna waa la qaatay; oo Ceelii labadiisii wiil oo ahaa Hofnii iyo Fiinexaasna waa la dilay.
Umtshokotsho kaNkulunkulu wasuthathwa, lamadodana womabili kaEli, uHofini loPhinehasi, abulawa.
12 Oo ciidankii waxaa ka orday nin reer Benyaamiin ah, oo isla maalintiiba wuxuu yimid Shiiloh isagoo dharkiisu jeexjeexan yahay, oo madaxana ciid ku leh.
Kwasekugijima umuntu wakoBhenjamini evela emaviyweni, wafika eShilo ngalolosuku, lezigqoko zakhe zidatshuliwe elenhlabathi ekhanda lakhe.
13 Oo markuu yimid, bal eeg, Ceelii wuxuu ku fadhiyey kursigiisii waddada dhankeeda yiil, isagoo wax fiirinaya; waayo, qalbigiisu wuxuu u dhibbanaa sanduuqii Ilaah aawadiis. Oo markii ninkii soo galay magaaladii, oo uu u warramay, ayaa magaaladii oo dhammu qaylisay.
Ekufikeni kwakhe, khangela-ke, uEli wayehlezi esihlalweni eceleni kwendlela elindile, ngoba inhliziyo yakhe yayithuthumelela umtshokotsho kaNkulunkulu. Kwathi lowomuntu esengenile emzini ukubika, kwakhala umuzi wonke.
14 Oo Ceeliina markuu maqlay dhawaaqii qaylada ayuu yidhi, Buuqan sawaxankiisu waa maxay micnihiisu? Markaasaa ninkii intuu soo dhaqsaday ayuu Ceelii u yimid oo u warramay.
Lapho uEli esizwa umsindo wokukhala wathi: Uyini umsindo wale inhlokomo? Lowomuntu wasephangisa weza wamtshela uEli.
15 Ceeliina wuxuu jiray siddeed iyo sagaashan sannadood, oo indhihiisuna dem bay ahaayeen oo waxba ma uu arki karin.
Njalo uEli wayeleminyaka engamatshumi ayisificamunwemunye leyisificaminwembili, lamehlo akhe ema ukuthi ayengelakho ukubona.
16 Oo ninkii wuxuu Ceelii ku yidhi, Anigu waxaan ahay kii ciidankii ka soo baxay, oo maantaan ciidankii ka soo cararay. Markaasuu yidhi, Wiilkaygiiyow, sidee bay xaaladdu u dhacday?
Lowomuntu wasesithi kuEli: Nginguye ovela emaviyweni; ngibaleke emaviyweni lamuhla. Wasesithi: Kwenziweni, ndodana yami?
17 Oo kii warka keenay waa jawaabay oo yidhi, Reer binu Israa'iil way ka carareen reer Falastiin, oo dad badan baa la laayay, oo labadaadii wiil oo ahaa Hofnii iyo Fiinexaas iyana way dhinteen, oo sanduuqii Ilaahna waa la qaatay.
Owaletha umbiko wasephendula wathi: UIsrayeli ubalekile phambi kwamaFilisti, futhi kube lokubulawa okukhulu ebantwini, njalo lamadodana akho womabili, uHofini loPhinehasi, afile, lomtshokotsho kaNkulunkulu uthethwe.
18 Oo markuu sanduuqii Ilaah wax uga sheegay, ayuu Ceelii dib uga dhacay kursigiisii iridda ag yiil, markaasuu qoorta ka jabay oo dhintay, waayo, wuxuu ahaa nin da' weyn oo culus. Oo wuxuu reer binu Israa'iil xukumi jiray afartan sannadood.
Kwasekusithi esekhulume ngomtshokotsho kaNkulunkulu, wawa nyovane esihlalweni eceleni kwesango, kwephuka intamo yakhe, wafa, ngoba lowomuntu wayemdala, enzima. Njalo wayahlulele uIsrayeli iminyaka engamatshumi amane.
19 Oo gabadhii uu soddogga u ahaa ee Fiinexaas qabay, uur bay lahayd oo fool bay ku dhowayd; oo markay maqashay warkii ahaa in sanduuqii Ilaah la qaatay, oo ay soddoggeed iyo ninkeediiba dhinteen ayay foororsatay oo umushay; waayo, haddiiba fool baa qabatay.
Lomalokazana wakhe, umkaPhinehasi, wayekhulelwe, esezabeletha; esezwile umbiko wokuthi umtshokotsho kaNkulunkulu uthethwe, lokuthi uyisezala lomkakhe bafile, wakhothama wabeletha, ngoba wafikelwa yimihelo.
20 Oo markay sakaraadaysay ayay naagihii agteeda taagnaa ku yidhaahdeen, Ha baqin, waayo, waxaad dhashay wiil. Laakiinse uma ay jawaabin, oo danna kama gelin.
Njalo phose ngesikhathi sokufa kwakhe abesifazana ababemi belaye bathi: Ungesabi, ngoba ubelethe indodana. Kodwa kaphendulanga njalo kazange akunanze.
21 Oo iyana waxay wiilkii u bixisay Iikabood, oo tidhi, Reer binu Israa'iil ammaantii way ka tagtay; maxaa yeelay, sanduuqii Ilaah waa la qaatay, oo weliba soddoggeed iyo ninkeediiba way dhinteen.
Wambiza umfana ngokuthi nguIkabodi, esithi: Inkazimulo isukile koIsrayeli; ngoba umtshokotsho kaNkulunkulu uthethwe, langenxa kayisezala lomkakhe.
22 Oo waxay tidhi, Reer binu Israa'iil ammaantii way ka tagtay; maxaa yeelay, sanduuqii Ilaah waa la qaatay.
Wasesithi: Inkazimulo isukile koIsrayeli ngoba umtshokotsho kaNkulunkulu uthethwe.
