Waamuzi 2
1 Malaika wa Bwana akatoka Gilgali, akaenda Bokimu, akasema, “Nimekuleta kutoka Misri, na nimekuleta katika nchi niliyoapa kuwapa baba zako.
and to ascend: rise messenger: angel LORD from [the] Gilgal to(wards) [the] Bochim and to say to ascend: establish [obj] you from Egypt and to come (in): bring [obj] you to(wards) [the] land: country/planet which to swear to/for father your and to say not to break covenant my with you to/for forever: enduring
2 Nikasema, 'Sitakuvunja kamwe agano langu na wewe. Usifanye agano na wale wanaoishi katika nchi hii. Ziangushe madhabahu zao. Lakini hukusikiliza sauti yangu. Je! ni nini hiki ulichokifanya?
and you(m. p.) not to cut: make(covenant) covenant to/for to dwell [the] land: country/planet [the] this altar their to tear [emph?] and not to hear: obey in/on/with voice my what? this to make: do
3 Basi sasa nasema, “Sitawafukuza Wakanaani mbele yenu, nao watakuwa miiba kwenu, na miungu yao itakuwa mtego kwa ajili yenu.”
and also to say not to drive out: drive out [obj] them from face: before your and to be to/for you to/for side and God their to be to/for you to/for snare
4 Malaika wa Bwana alipowaambia maneno hayo kwa watu wote wa Israeli, watu wakapiga kelele na kulia.
and to be like/as to speak: speak messenger: angel LORD [obj] [the] word [the] these to(wards) all son: descendant/people Israel and to lift: loud [the] people [obj] voice their and to weep
5 Waliita mahali hapo Bokimu. Hapo wakatoa dhabihu kwa Bwana.
and to call: call by name [the] place [the] he/she/it Bochim and to sacrifice there to/for LORD
6 Yoshua alipowaruhusu watu waende zao, wana wa Israeli kila mmoja akaenda mahali alipopewa, wakiwa na umiliki wa ardhi yao.
and to send: depart Joshua [obj] [the] people and to go: went son: descendant/people Israel man: anyone to/for inheritance his to/for to possess: take [obj] [the] land: country/planet
7 Watu walimtumikia Bwana wakati wa maisha ya Yoshua na wazee walioendelea baada yake, ni wale waliokuwa wameona matendo yote makuu ya Bwana aliyoyafanya kwa Israeli.
and to serve: minister [the] people [obj] LORD all day Joshua and all day [the] old: elder which to prolong day after Joshua which to see: see [obj] all deed: work LORD [the] great: large which to make: do to/for Israel
8 Yoshua mwana wa Nuni, mtumishi wa Bwana, alikufa akiwa na umri wa miaka 110.
and to die Joshua son: child Nun servant/slave LORD son: aged hundred and ten year
9 Wakamzika ndani ya mpaka wa nchi aliyopewa huko Timnath Heresi, katika mlima wa Efraimu, kaskazini mwa Mlima Gaash.
and to bury [obj] him in/on/with border: boundary inheritance his in/on/with Timnath-heres Timnath-heres in/on/with mountain: hill country Ephraim from north to/for mountain: mount Gaash
10 Kizazi hicho chote kilikusanyika kwa baba zao. Kizazi kingine kilichofuata baada yao ambao hakikumjua Bwana au kile alichokifanya kwa Israeli.
and also all [the] generation [the] he/she/it to gather to(wards) father his and to arise: rise generation another after them which not to know [obj] LORD and also [obj] [the] deed: work which to make: do to/for Israel
11 Watu wa Israeli walifanya yaliyo mabaya machoni pa Bwana, nao wakawatumikia Mabaali.
and to make: do son: descendant/people Israel [obj] [the] bad: evil in/on/with eye: seeing LORD and to serve: minister [obj] [the] Baal
12 Wakaondoka kwa Bwana, Mungu wa baba zao, aliyewatoa kutoka Misri. Wakaifuata miungu mingine, miungu ya watu waliokuwa karibu nao, nao wakaisujudia. Wakamkasirisha BWANA kwa sababu
and to leave: forsake [obj] LORD God father their [the] to come out: send [obj] them from land: country/planet Egypt and to go: follow after God another from God [the] people which around them and to bow to/for them and to provoke [obj] LORD
13 waliondoka kwa Bwana na kumwabudu Baal na Maashtoreti.
and to leave: forsake [obj] LORD and to serve: minister to/for Baal and to/for Ashtaroth
14 Hasira ya Bwana ikawaka juu ya Israeli, naye akawapa washambuliaji walioiba mali zao kutoka kwao. Aliwauza kama watumwa waliofanyika kwa nguvu za maadui zao waliowazunguka, hivyo hawakuweza kujikinga dhidi ya adui zao.
and to be incensed face: anger LORD in/on/with Israel and to give: give them in/on/with hand: to to plunder and to plunder [obj] them and to sell them in/on/with hand: power enemy their from around and not be able still to/for to stand: stand to/for face: before enemy their
15 Israeli walipokwenda kupigana, mkono wa Bwana ulikuwa dhidi yao kuwashinda, kama alivyowaapia. Na walikuwa katika shida kali.
in/on/with all which to come out: come hand: power LORD to be in/on/with them to/for distress: harm like/as as which to speak: promise LORD and like/as as which to swear LORD to/for them and be distressed to/for them much
16 Ndipo Bwana akawainua waamuzi, waliowaokoa katika mikono ya wale waliokuwa wakiba mali zao.
and to arise: raise LORD to judge and to save them from hand: power to plunder them
17 Hata hivyo hawakuwasikiliza waamuzi wao. Hawakuwa waaminifu kwa Bwana na wakajitoa wenyewe kama makahaba kwa miungu mingine na kuabudu. Waligeuka upesi na kuiacha njia waliyoishi baba zao-wale waliotii amri za Bwana-lakini wao wenyewe hawakufanya hivyo.
and also to(wards) to judge them not to hear: obey for to fornicate after God another and to bow to/for them to turn aside: turn aside quickly from [the] way: conduct which to go: walk father their to/for to hear: obey commandment LORD not to make: do so
18 Bwana aliinua waamuzi kwa ajili yao, Bwana akawasaidia waamuzi na kuwakomboa kutoka kwa mikono ya adui zao siku zote muamuzi aliishi. Bwana aliwahurumia walipougua kwa sababu ya wale waliowadhulumu na kuwasumbua.
and for to arise: raise LORD to/for them to judge and to be LORD with [the] to judge and to save them from hand: power enemy their all day [the] to judge for to be sorry: comfort LORD from groan their from face: because to oppress them and to crowd them
19 Lakini mwamuzi alipokufa, waligeuka na kufanya mambo ambayo yalikuwa mabaya zaidi kuliko baba zao walivyofanya. Wakaenda kuifuata miungu mingine kuitumikia na kuiabudu. Walikataa kuacha matendo yao yote mabaya au njia zao za ukaidi.
and to be in/on/with to die [the] to judge to return: turn back and to ruin from father their to/for to go: follow after God another to/for to serve: minister them and to/for to bow to/for them not to fall: fall from deed their and from way: conduct their [the] severe
20 Hasira ya Bwana iliwaka juu ya Israeli; akasema, Kwa sababu taifa hili limevunja masharti ya agano langu ambalo nililiweka kwa ajili ya baba zao-kwa sababu hawakuisikiliza sauti yangu.
and to be incensed face: anger LORD in/on/with Israel and to say because which to pass: trespass [the] nation [the] this [obj] covenant my which to command [obj] father their and not to hear: obey to/for voice my
21 Tangu sasa sitaliondoa mbele yao taifa lolote aliloliacha Yoshua baada ya kufa.
also I not to add: again to/for to possess: take man: anyone from face: before their from [the] nation which to leave: forsake Joshua and to die
22 Nitafanya hivi ili kuwajaribu Israeli, ikiwa watafuata njia ya Bwana au sivyo, kama vile baba zao walivyoifuata.
because to test in/on/with them [obj] Israel to keep: careful they(masc.) [obj] way: conduct LORD to/for to go: walk in/on/with them like/as as which to keep: obey father their if not
23 Ndiyo sababu Bwana aliwaacha mataifa hayo, wala hakuwafukuza haraka na kuwatia mikononi mwa Yoshua.
and to rest LORD [obj] [the] nation [the] these to/for lest to possess: take them quickly and not to give: give them in/on/with hand: power Joshua
