Waamuzi 1
1 Baada ya kifo cha Yoshua, Waisraeli wakamuuliza Bwana, “Ni nani atakayetangulia kupanda mbele yetu kwa ajili ya kupigana na Wakanaani?”
Joshua a due hnukkhu, Isarelnaw ni Kanaannaw tuk hanelah, apimaw maimouh hanlah hma ka hman han telah BAWIPA hah a pacei awh.
2 Bwana akajibu, “Yuda ndiye atakayetangulia; nimewapa hiyo nchi mikononi mwao.”
BAWIPA ni, Judah a cei han. A kut dawk ram teh ka poe toe, telah a ti.
3 Ndipo watu wa Yuda wakawaambia Wasimeoni ndugu zao, “Pandeni pamoja nasi katika nchi tuliyopewa, ili tupate kupigana na Wakanaani. Sisi pia tutakwenda pamoja nanyi katika sehemu yenu mliyopewa.” Basi Wasimeoni wakaenda pamoja nao.
Judah ni a hmau Simeon koevah, Kanaannaw tuk thai nahanelah, ka ham e ram koe kai na pue haw, kai ni hai nang ni na ham e ram koe na pue van han, atipouh. Hahoi teh, Simeon ni ahni koe a kâbang pouh.
4 Yuda aliposhambulia, Bwana akawatia Wakanaani na Waperizi mikononi mwao, nao wakawaua watu 10,000 huko Bezeki.
Judah ni a kamthaw teh Kanaannaw hoi Periznaw hah BAWIPA ni a kut dawk a poe teh, Bezek vah tami 10, 000 touh a thei awh.
5 Huko ndiko walipomkuta huyo Adoni-Bezeki, nao wakapigana naye na kuwafanya Wakanaani na Waperizi wakimbie.
Bezek kho vah Adonibezek siangpahrang a hmu awh teh, Kanaannaw hoi Periznaw a thei awh toteh,
6 Adoni-Bezeki pia alikimbia, nao wakamfuata na kumkamata, wakamkata vidole vyake gumba vya mikono na vya miguu.
siangpahrang teh a yawng eiteh, Judahnaw ni a pâlei awh teh, bout a man awh. A kutpui, a khokpui soumsoum a tâtueng pouh awh.
7 Ndipo Adoni-Bezeki akasema, “Nimewatendea wafalme sabini kama nilivyotendewa na kuwalisha makombo ya chakula chini ya meza yangu. Sasa Mungu amenilipa haya, kama yale niliyowatendea.” Wakamleta Yerusalemu, naye akafa huko.
Adonibezek ni kutpui hoi khokpui a tâtueng pouh e siangpahrang 70 touh ni, kaie caboi rahim buramei a luep awh. Kai ni ouk ka sak e patetlah, BAWIPA ni kai dawk moi na pathung toe ati. Hote siangpahrangnaw teh, Jerusalem a ceikhai awh teh, hawvah a due.
8 Watu wa Yuda wakashambulia pia Yerusalemu na kuiteka. Wakaupiga mji kwa upanga na kuuchoma kwa moto.
Hahoi Judahnaw ni Jerusalem teh tahloi hoi koung a thei awh hnukkhu, hmai a sawi awh.
9 Baada ya hayo, watu wa Yuda wakateremka kupigana na Wakanaani walioishi katika nchi ya vilima, yaani, Negebu na nchi chini ya vilima vya magharibi.
Hathnukkhu hoi teh, mon dawk kaawmnaw hai thoseh, akalae kaawmnaw hai thoseh, ayawn dawk kaawmnaw hai thoseh, Kanaannaw hai thoseh, a tuk awh.
10 Yuda wakakabiliana na Wakanaani walioishi Hebroni (ambayo hapo kwanza iliitwa Kiriath-Arba) na kuwashinda Sheshai, Ahimani na Talmai.
Hahoi minruem Kiriath-Arba a phung awh e Hebron kho kaawm e Kanaannaw aonae koe a cei awh teh, Sheshai Ahiman, Talmainaw a thei awh.
11 Kutoka huko wakasonga mbele kukabiliana na watu walioishi Debiri (ambao hapo kwanza uliitwa Kiriath-Seferi.)
Haw hoi teh, Debir kaawm e naw hah a cei sin awh. Debir teh ayan e min lahoi teh Kiriath-sepher doeh.
12 Kalebu akasema, “Nitamwoza binti yangu Aksa kwa mtu atakayeweza kupigana na kuteka Kiriath-Seferi.”
Hahoi Kalep ni, Kiriath-sepher khopui ka tâ thai e tami teh kai ni ka canu Akasah a yu lah ka poe han telah a ti.
13 Basi Othnieli mwana wa Kenazi, ndugu mdogo wa huyo Kalebu, akawashinda, kwa hiyo Kalebu akamtoa binti yake Aksa akaolewa naye.
Kalep e a nawngha Kenaz e capa Othniel ni a tâ teh a canu Akasah teh a yu lah a poe.
14 Siku moja Aksa alipokuja kwa Othnieli, alimsihi Othnieli amwombe baba yake, Kalebu, shamba. Aksa aliposhuka kutoka juu ya punda wake, Kalebu akamuuliza, “Je, wataka nikufanyie nini?”
Hote napui kahlawng a cei navah, A na pa koe lawhmuennaw hei hanlah a kâpan roi hnukkhu, marang dawk hoi a kum. A na pa ni bangmaw na ngai e kaawm telah a pacei navah,
15 Akamjibu, “Naomba unifanyie jambo moja la hisani. Kwa kuwa umenipa ardhi huko Negebu, nipe pia chemchemi za maji.” Ndipo Kalebu akampa chemchemi za juu na za chini.
a canu ni yawhawi na poe hanelah ka ngai. Akalae ram na poe boum teh, tuidonaw hai hmawi na poe sin loe atipouh. A na pa ni atunglae tuido hoi akalae tuido puenghai a poe.
16 Wazao wa yule Mkeni, baba mkwe wa Mose, wakapanda pamoja na watu wa Yuda kutoka Mji wa Mitende, wakaenda kuishi miongoni mwa watu wa jangwa ya Yuda huko Negebu karibu na mji wa Aradi.
Mosi masei e a na minca lah kaawm e Ken miphunnaw hateh, Judahnaw hoi ungkung kho thung kaawm e, Arad ram teng kaawm e, Judah ram dawk a kâbang van teh, kho cungtalah a sak awh.
17 Basi watu wa Yuda wakaenda na Wasimeoni ndugu zao kushambulia Wakanaani waishio Sefathi, nao wakauangamiza huo mji kabisa. Kwa hiyo huo mji ukaitwa Horma
Hahoi teh, Judah ni a hmau Simeon hoi a cei roi teh, Zephath kho kaawm e Kanaannaw a thei roi teh, khopui hai he a raphoe roi. Hatdawkvah, Hormah telah a phung awh.
18 Watu wa Yuda wakatwaa pia Gaza, Ashkeloni na Ekroni, kila mji na vijiji vyake vinavyouzunguka.
Hahoi Judah ni Gaza hoi ateng e khonaw, Askelon hoi ateng e khonaw, Ekron hoi ateng e khonaw hai koung a la pouh.
19 Bwana alikuwa pamoja na watu wa Yuda. Wakaimiliki nchi ya vilima, lakini hawakuweza kuwafukuza watu waliokaa katika hiyo tambarare, kwa sababu walikuwa na magari ya chuma.
BAWIPA teh Judah hoi cungtalah ao dawkvah, ahni ni mon dawk e naw pueng he a pâlei. Hateiteh, ayawn dawk kho ka sak e naw teh, sumrangleng a tawn awh dawkvah, pâlei thai awh hoeh.
20 Kama vile Mose alivyoahidi, Kalebu alipewa Hebroni, naye akawafukuza wana watatu wa Anaki.
Hahoi Mosi ni a dei e patetlah Hebron teh Kalep a poe awh. Anakim e capa kathum touh teh, hote kho hoi a pâlei awh.
21 Hata hivyo, Wabenyamini walishindwa kuwafukuza Wayebusi, waliokuwa wanaishi Yerusalemu; hivyo hadi leo Wayebusi huishi humo pamoja na Wabenyamini.
Hatei Benjamin miphunnaw niteh, Jerusalem kaawm e Jebusitnaw hah pâlei awh hoeh dawkvah, atu totouh, Jebusitnaw hah Benjaminnaw hoi Jerusalem vah reirei ao awh.
22 Basi nyumba ya Yosefu wakashambulia Betheli, naye Bwana alikuwa pamoja nao.
Joseph miphunnaw nihai, Bethel a tuk awh navah, BAWIPA teh ahnimouh koe ao.
23 Walipotuma watu kwenda kupeleleza Betheli (ambao hapo kwanza uliitwa Luzu),
Joseph miphun niteh, Bethel tuet hanlah, a patoun awh. Hote kho min teh ayan teh Luz tie doeh.
24 wale wapelelezi wakaona mtu anatoka mjini, nao wakamwambia, “Tuonyeshe jinsi ya kuingia mjini nasi tutakutendea wema.”
Katuetnaw ni kho thung hoi ka tâcawt e tami buet touh a hmu awh teh, kho thung kâennae lam na patue haw. Hat pawiteh, na hlout han atipouh.
25 Hivyo akawaonyesha, nao wakaupiga mji kwa upanga lakini wakamhifadhi hai yule mtu na jamaa yake yote.
Hote tami ni kho thung kâennae lam a patue teh, ahnimouh ni khocanaw hah tahloi hoi he a tâtueng awh. Hatei, hote tami hoi imthungkhunaw teh a hlout sak awh.
26 Yule mtu akaenda hadi nchi ya Wahiti, ambapo aliujenga mji na kuuita Luzu, ambao ndio jina lake hadi leo.
Hote a hlout sak awh e imthung teh, Hit ram lah a cei awh teh hawvah kho a sak awh. Ahnimae kho min teh Luz telah a phung awh. Sahnin totouh a min lah pou ao.
27 Lakini Manase hawakuwafukuza watu wa Beth-Shani na vijiji vyake, au watu wa Taanaki na vijiji vyake, au watu wa Dori na vijiji vyake, au watu wa Ibleamu na vijiji vyake, au watu wa Megido na vijiji vyake, lakini Wakanaani waliazimu kuishi katika nchi ile.
Manasseh miphun niteh, Bethshean khonaw, Tanak khonaw, Dor khonaw, Ibleam khonaw, Megiddo khonaw hah pâlei laipalah, Kanaannaw hoi Hote ram dawk cungtalah rei pou ao awh.
28 Israeli walipopata nguvu, wakawatia Wakanaani katika kazi ya kulazimishwa, lakini kamwe hawakuwafukuza watoke kabisa.
Isarelnaw a tha ao toteh, Kanaannaw teh pâlei hoeh eiteh, a kut rahim thaw a tawk sak awh.
29 Wala Efraimu hawakuwafukuza kabisa Wakanaani walioishi Gezeri, bali Wakanaani waliendelea kuishi humo miongoni mwao.
Ephraim niteh, Gezer kaawm e Kanaannaw pâlei awh hoeh. Hatei, Kanaannaw hoi mak kâkalawt lah kho a sak awh.
30 Vivyo hivyo Zabuloni hawakuwafukuza Wakanaani walioishi huko Kitroni, wala walioishi Nahaloli, ambao walibaki miongoni mwao; bali waliwatia katika kazi ya kulazimishwa.
Zebulun ni Kitron kaawm naw thoseh, Nahalal kaawmnaw thoseh, pâlei awh hoeh. Hatei, Kanaannaw hoi cungtalah kho a sak awh teh, a kut rahim thaw a tawk sak awh.
31 Wala Asheri hawakuwafukuza wale walioishi huko Ako, Sidoni, Alabu, Akzibu, Helba, Afeki wala Rehobu
Hot patetvanlah, Asher miphun ni hai Akko kho kaawmnaw, Sidon kho kaawmnaw, Ahlab kho kaawmnaw, Akhzib kho kaawmnaw, Helbah kho kaawmnaw, Aphik kho kaawmnaw, Rehob kho kaawmnaw a pâlei awh hoeh dawkvah,
32 na kwa sababu ya jambo hili Waasheri wakaishi miongoni mwa Wakanaani, wenyeji wa nchi.
Asher miphunnaw teh, Kanaannaw koe kho a sak awh.
33 Wala Naftali hawakuwafukuza wale walioishi Beth-Shemeshi wala wale walioishi Beth-Anathi; lakini Naftali nao pia wakaishi miongoni mwa Wakanaani, wenyeji wa nchi, nao wale walioishi Beth-Shemeshi na Beth-Anathi wakawa watumishi wao katika kazi ya kulazimishwa.
Naphtali miphun ni Bethshemesh kho kaawmnaw, Bethanath kaawmnaw pâlei awh hoeh. Kanaannaw hoi mak kâkalawt lah kho a sak awh. Bethshemesh hoi Bethanathnaw teh, a kut rahim thaw a tawk sak awh.
34 Waamori wakawazuilia Wadani kwenye nchi ya vilima, kwa maana hawakuwaacha washuke kuingia kwenye sehemu tambarare.
Amornaw nihai, Dannaw teh mon lah a pâlei awh teh, ayawn dawk teh awm sak awh hoeh.
35 Waamori pia wakaendelea kukaa katika Mlima Heresi, katika Aiyaloni na Shaalbimu, lakini mkono wa nyumba ya Yosefu ukawalemea, nao wakashindwa hata wakalazimika kuingia katika kazi ya kulazimishwa.
Amornaw teh, Heres, Aijalon hoi Shaalbim vah pou ao awh. Hahoi teh, Joseph miphunnaw a tha ao awh teh, Amornaw a kut rahim thaw a tawk sak awh.
36 Mpaka wa Waamori ulikuwa kuanzia Genge la Akrabimu, kuendelea hadi Sela na kuelekea juu.
Amornaw e khori teh, Akrabbim lah ka takhang niteh, Sela e a lathueng lah pou a cei.
