Waamuzi 2
1 Malaika wa Bwana akakwea kutoka Gilgali hadi Bokimu, naye akasema, “Niliwapandisha kutoka Misri na kuwaingiza katika nchi niliyoapa kuwapa baba zenu. Nikasema, ‘Kamwe sitalivunja Agano langu nanyi.
Pea naʻe haʻu ʻae ʻāngelo ʻa Sihova mei Kilikali ki Pokimi, ʻo ne pehē, “Naʻaku ʻo hake ʻakimoutolu mei ʻIsipite, pea kuo u ʻomi ʻakimoutolu ki he fonua ʻaia naʻaku fuakava ai ki hoʻomou ngaahi tamai; pea ne u pehē, ‘ʻE ʻikai ʻaupito te u liʻaki ʻeku fuakava mo kimoutolu.
2 Nanyi msifanye agano na watu wa nchi hii, bali mtazibomoa madhabahu yao.’ Lakini ninyi hamkunitii mimi. Kwa nini mmefanya jambo hili?
Pea ʻe ʻikai te mou alea ke fakataha mo e kakai ʻoe fonua ni: ka te mou laku hifo honau ngaahi feilaulauʻanga:’ ka naʻe ʻikai te mou fai talangofua ki hoku leʻo: ko e hā kuo mou fai ai ʻae meʻa ni?
3 Sasa basi ninawaambia kuwa sitawafukuza watoke katikati yenu ila watakuwa miiba kwenu, nao miungu yao itakuwa tanzi kwenu.”
Ko ia kuo u lea foki ʻo pehē, ʻE ʻikai te u kapusi ʻakinautolu mei homou ʻao: ka tenau hoko [ko e ngaahi talaʻi ʻakau ]ʻi homou vakavaka, pea ko honau ngaahi ʻotua ko e tauhele kiate kimoutolu.”
4 Malaika wa Bwana alipomaliza kusema mambo haya kwa Waisraeli wote, watu wakalia kwa sauti kuu.
Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻi he lea ʻae ʻāngelo ʻa Sihova ʻaki ʻae ngaahi lea ni ki he fānau kotoa pē ʻa ʻIsileli, naʻe hiki hake honau leʻo ʻe he kakai, ʻo tangi.
5 Wakapaita mahali pale Bokimu. Nao wakamtolea Bwana sadaka.
Pea naʻa nau ui hono hingoa ʻoe potu ko ia ko Pokimi: pea naʻa nau fai ʻi ai ʻae feilaulau kia Sihova.
6 Baada ya Yoshua kuwapa watu ruhusa waende zao, Waisraeli wakaenda kwenye urithi wao wenyewe ili kumiliki nchi yao.
Pea ʻi he tuku ʻe Siosiua ʻae kakai ke ʻalu; naʻe ʻalu ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli ʻae tangata taki taha kotoa pē ki hono tofiʻa ke maʻu ʻae fonua.
7 Watu wakamtumikia Bwana siku zote za maisha ya Yoshua, na za hao wazee walioishi baada ya Yoshua kufa, waliokuwa wameona mambo makuu ambayo Bwana alikuwa ametenda kwa ajili ya Israeli.
Pea naʻe tauhi ʻa Sihova ʻe he kakai ʻi he ʻaho kotoa pē ʻo Siosiua, pea mo e ngaahi ʻaho kotoa pē ʻoe kau mātuʻa naʻa nau moʻui fuoloa ange ʻia Siosiua, ʻakinautolu naʻe mamata ki he ngaahi ngāue lahi ʻa Sihova, ʻaia naʻa ne fai maʻa ʻIsileli.
8 Yoshua mwana wa Nuni, mtumishi wa Bwana, akafa akiwa na umri wa miaka 110.
Pea naʻe pekia ʻa Siosiua ko e foha ʻo Nuni ko e tamaioʻeiki ʻa Sihova, kuo teau taʻu hono motuʻa mo e taʻu ʻe hongofulu.
9 Wakamzika katika nchi ya urithi wake, huko Timnath-Heresi katika nchi ya vilima ya Efraimu, kaskazini ya Mlima Gaashi.
Pea naʻa nau fai hono putu ʻi he veʻe fonua ʻo hono tofiʻa ʻi Timinate-Helesi, ʻi he moʻunga ʻo ʻIfalemi, ʻi hono potu tokelau ʻoe moʻunga ko Keasi.
10 Baada ya kizazi kile chote kukusanywa pamoja na baba zao, kikainuka kizazi kingine baada yao ambacho hakikumjua Bwana, wala matendo yale aliyokuwa ametenda kwa ajili ya Waisraeli.
Pea naʻe tānaki foki ʻae toʻutangata kotoa pē ko ia ki heʻenau ngaahi tamai; pea naʻe tupu hake ʻae toʻutangata ʻe taha ʻo hoko mo kinautolu, ʻaia naʻe ʻikai tenau ʻilo ʻa Sihova, pe ko e ngaahi ngāue foki naʻe fai ʻe ia maʻa ʻIsileli.
11 Kwa hiyo Waisraeli wakatenda maovu machoni pa Bwana na kuwatumikia Mabaali.
Pea naʻe fai kovi ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova, pea naʻa [nau ]tauhi ʻa Peali:
12 Wakamwacha Bwana, Mungu wa baba zao, aliyekuwa amewatoa katika nchi ya Misri. Wakaifuata na kuiabudu miungu mbalimbali ya mataifa yanayowazunguka. Wakamkasirisha Bwana,
Pea naʻa nau liʻaki ʻa Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻenau ngaahi tamai, ʻaia naʻa ne ʻomi ʻakinautolu mei he fonua ko ʻIsipite, ʻonau muimui ki he ngaahi ʻotua kehe, ʻi he ngaahi ʻotua ʻoe kakai naʻe nofo takatakai ʻiate kinautolu, ʻonau punou hifo ʻakinautolu kiate kinautolu, ʻo fakatupu ʻae houhau ʻo Sihova.
13 kwa sababu walimwacha na kutumikia Baali na Maashtorethi.
Pea naʻa nau liʻaki ʻa Sihova, ʻo tauhi ʻa Peali mo ʻAsitelote.
14 Hivyo hasira ya Bwana ikawaka juu ya Israeli, naye akawatia mikononi mwa wavamizi waliowateka nyara. Akawauza katika mikono ya adui zao pande zote, hivyo hawakuweza tena kuwazuia adui zao.
Pea naʻe tupu ʻo vela lahi ʻae houhau ʻa Sihova ki ʻIsileli, pea naʻa ne tukuange ʻakinautolu ki he nima ʻoe kau maumau, ʻaia naʻe maumauʻi ʻakinautolu, pea naʻa ne fakatau ʻakinautolu ki he nima ʻo honau ngaahi fili naʻe takatakai ʻakinautolu, ko ia naʻe ʻikai tenau kei faʻa tuʻu ʻi he ʻao ʻo honau ngaahi fili.
15 Popote Israeli walipotoka kwenda kupigana, mkono wa Bwana ulikuwa kinyume nao ili kuwashinda, kama vile alivyokuwa amewaapia. Nao wakawa katika taabu kubwa.
Ko e ngaahi potu kotoa pē naʻa nau ʻalu ki ai, naʻe hiki ai ʻae nima ʻo Sihova kiate kinautolu ki he kovi, ʻo hangē ko e lea ʻa Sihova, pea hangē ko e fuakava ʻa Sihova kiate kinautolu: pea naʻa nau mamahi lahi.
16 Ndipo Bwana akawainua waamuzi, ambao waliwaokoa katika mikono ya hao watu waliowashambulia.
Ka neongo ia naʻe fokotuʻu hake ʻe Sihova ʻae kau fakamaau, ʻaia naʻe fakamoʻui ʻakinautolu mei he nima ʻokinautolu naʻe maumauʻi ʻakinautolu.
17 Lakini hawakuwasikiliza hata waamuzi wao, bali walifanya uasherati kwa kuifuata miungu mingine na kuiabudu. Waligeuka mara na kuiacha njia ambayo baba zao waliiendea, yaani, njia ya kutii amri za Bwana.
Ka naʻe ʻikai tenau fie fanongo ki honau kau fakamaau, ka naʻa nau ʻalu holi kovi pe ki he ngaahi ʻotua kehe, ke punou hifo ʻakinautolu ki ai: naʻa nau tafoki vave mei he hala ʻaia naʻe ʻalu ai ʻenau ngaahi tamai, ʻi [heʻenau ]fai talangofua ki he ngaahi fekau ʻa Sihova: he naʻe ʻikai tenau fai pehē.
18 Kila mara Bwana alipowainulia mwamuzi, Bwana alikuwa pamoja na huyo mwamuzi, naye aliwaokoa kutoka mikononi mwa adui zao kwa kipindi chote alichoishi yule mwamuzi. Kwa kuwa Bwana aliwahurumia kwa sababu ya kilio chao cha huzuni kwa ajili ya wale waliokuwa wakiwatesa na kuwataabisha.
Pea ʻi he fokotuʻu ʻe Sihova ʻae kau fakamaau kiate kinautolu, pea naʻe ʻi he fakamaau ʻa Sihova, ʻo ne fakamoʻui ʻakinautolu mei he nima ʻo honau ngaahi fili ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho kotoa pē ʻoe fakamaau: he naʻe fakatomala ʻa Sihova ko e meʻa ʻi heʻenau ngaahi toʻe koeʻuhi ko kinautolu naʻe fakamamahiʻi ʻakinautolu mo fakafiuʻi ʻakinautolu.
19 Lakini kila mara mwamuzi alipofariki, watu walirudia katika hali mbaya ya uovu zaidi kuliko baba zao, wakiifuata miungu mingine kuitumikia na kuiabudu. Walikataa kuacha matendo yao maovu na njia zao za ukaidi.
Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻi he pekia leva ʻae fakamaau, naʻa nau tafoki ʻo fakahalaʻi lahi ʻaupito hake ʻakinautolu ʻi heʻenau ngaahi tamai, ʻi he muimui ʻi he ngaahi ʻotua kehe ke tauhi ʻakinautolu, ʻo punou hifo ki ai; naʻe ʻikai tenau tuku ʻenau fai ki honau faianga, pe mei he anga mālohi ʻanautolu.
20 Kwa hiyo Bwana akawakasirikia sana Israeli na kusema, “Kwa kuwa taifa hili limevunja Agano lile nililofanya na baba zao na hawakunisikiliza,
Pea naʻe tupu ʻo vela ʻae houhau ʻo Sihova ki ʻIsileli; pea naʻe pehē ʻe ia, “Ko e meʻa ʻi he liʻaki ʻe he kakai ni ʻeku fuakava ʻaia naʻaku fekau ki heʻenau ngaahi tamai, pea ʻoku ʻikai tenau tokanga ki hoku leʻo;
21 mimi nami sitafukuza taifa lolote ambalo Yoshua aliliacha alipofariki.
Ngata mei heni, ʻe ʻikai te u kapusi mei honau ʻao ʻae ngaahi puleʻanga naʻe tuku ʻe Siosiua ʻi heʻene pekia;
22 Nitayatumia ili nipate kuwapima Israeli na kuona kama wataishika njia ya Bwana na kuenenda katika hiyo kama njia baba zao walivyofanya.”
Koeʻuhi ke u ʻahiʻahiʻi ʻa ʻIsileli ʻiate kinautolu, ke ʻilo pe tenau tauhi ʻae hala ʻo Sihova ke ʻalu ʻi ai, ʻo hangē hono tauhi ia ʻe heʻenau ngaahi tamai, pe ʻikai.”
23 Bwana alikuwa ameyaacha hayo mataifa yabaki; hakuyaondoa mara moja kwa kuyatia mikononi mwa Yoshua.
Ko ia naʻe tuku pē ʻe Sihova ʻae ngaahi puleʻanga ko ia, ʻo ʻikai kapusi vave ʻakinautolu kituaʻā: pea naʻe ʻikai te ne tukuange ʻakinautolu ki he nima ʻo Siosiua.
