Fakamaau 10

1 Pea naʻe tuʻu hake ki mui ia ʻApimeleki ʻa Tola ko e foha ʻo Pua, ko e foha ʻo Toto, ko e tangata ʻo ʻIsaka, ke ne fakamoʻui ʻa ʻIsileli; pea naʻe nofo ia ʻi Samili ʻi he moʻunga ʻo ʻIfalemi.

Baada ya Abimeleki, Tola mwana wa Pua mwana wa Dodo, mtu wa Isakari, aliyeishi huko Shamiri, katika nchi ya vilima ya Efraimu, akainuka kuokoa Israeli.

2 Pea naʻa ne fakamaauʻi ʻa ʻIsileli ʻi he taʻu ʻe uofulu ma tolu, pea pekia ia, pea naʻe tanu ia ʻi Samili.

Akaamua Israeli kwa miaka ishirini na mitatu. Ndipo akafa, naye akazikwa huko Shamiri.

3 Pea naʻe hoko mo ia ʻa Saili ko e tangata ʻo Kiliati, pea ne fakamaau ʻe ia ʻa ʻIsileli ʻi he taʻu ʻe uofulu ma ua.

Baada yake akafuatiwa na Yairi, Mgileadi, ambaye aliamua Israeli kwa miaka ishirini na miwili.

4 Pea naʻe toko tolungofulu hono foha naʻa nau heka ʻi he ngaahi ʻasi mui ʻe tolungofulu, pea naʻe tolungofulu ʻenau kolo, ʻaia ʻoku ui ko e ngaahi kolo ʻo Saili, ʻo aʻu ki he ʻaho ni, ʻaia ʻoku ʻi he fonua ʻo Kiliati.

Alikuwa na wana thelathini waliopanda punda thelathini. Nao walikuwa na miji thelathini iliyoko Gileadi, inayoitwa Hawoth-Yairi mpaka leo.

5 Pea naʻe pekia ʻa Saili, pea tanu ia ʻi Kamoni.

Yairi akafa, naye akazikwa huko Kamoni.

6 Pea naʻe toe fai kovi ʻe he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova, ʻonau tauhi ʻa Peali mo ʻAsitelote, mo e ngaahi ʻotua ʻo Silia, pea mo e ngaahi ʻotua ʻo Saitoni, mo e ngaahi ʻotua ʻo Moape, mo e ngaahi ʻotua ʻoe fānau ʻa ʻAmoni, mo e ngaahi ʻotua ʻoe kau Filisitia, ʻonau liʻaki ʻa Sihova, pea naʻe ʻikai tenau tauhi ia.

Wana wa Israeli wakatenda tena maovu machoni pa Bwana. Wakaabudu Mabaali na Maashtorethi, miungu ya Aramu, miungu ya Sidoni, miungu ya Moabu, miungu ya Waamoni na miungu ya Wafilisti. Kwa kuwa Waisraeli walimwacha Bwana wala hawakuendelea kumtumikia,

7 Pea naʻe tupu ai ke vela ʻae houhau ʻo Sihova ki ʻIsileli, pea ne fakatau kinautolu ki he nima ʻoe kau Filisitia, pea ki he nima ʻoe fānau ʻa ʻAmoni.

hivyo hasira ya Bwana ikawaka dhidi ya Israeli, naye akawatia mikononi mwa Wafilisti na Waamoni,

8 Pea naʻe hongofulu taʻu mo e taʻu ʻe valu ʻi he kuonga ko ia mo ʻenau taʻomia ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli: ʻae fānau kotoa pē ʻa ʻIsileli naʻe nofo ʻi he potu ki kō atu ʻi Sioatani ʻi he fonua ʻoe kau ʻAmoli, ʻaia ʻoku ʻi Kiliati.

ambao waliwaonea na kuwatesa mwaka ule. Kwa miaka kumi na minane wakawatesa Waisraeli wote upande wa mashariki ya Mto Yordani katika Gileadi, nchi ya Waamori.

9 Naʻe ʻalu foki ʻae fānau ʻa ʻAmoni ʻo fokotuʻu atu ki he kauvai ʻe taha ʻo Sioatani ke tauʻi ʻa Siuta, pea mo Penisimani, pea mo e fale ʻo ʻIfalemi: ko ia naʻe mamahi lahi ai ʻa ʻIsileli.

Waamoni nao wakavuka Yordani ili kupigana na Yuda, Benyamini na nyumba ya Efraimu, nayo nyumba ya Israeli ikawa katika taabu kubwa.

10 Pea naʻe tangi ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli kia Sihova, ʻo pehē, “Kuo mau fai angahala kiate koe, ko e meʻa ʻi heʻemau liʻaki homau ʻOtua, mo ʻemau tauhi foki ʻa Peali.”

Ndipo Waisraeli wakamlilia Bwana wakasema, “Tumetenda dhambi dhidi yako, kumwacha Mungu wetu na kutumikia Mabaali.”

11 Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Sihova ki he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, “ʻIkai naʻaku fakamoʻui ʻakimoutolu mei he kakai ʻIsipite, pea mei he kau ʻAmoli, pea mei he fānau ʻa ʻAmoni, pea mei he kau Filisitia?

Bwana akawaambia, “Wakati Wamisri, Waamori, Waamoni, Wafilisti,

12 Pea naʻe taʻomia foki ʻakimoutolu ʻe he kau Saitoni, mo e kau ʻAmaleki, pea mo e kau Maoni: pea ne mou tangi kiate au, pea ne u fakamoʻui ʻakimoutolu mei honau nima.

Wasidoni, Waamaleki na Wamaoni walipowaonea na ninyi mkanililia na kuomba msaada, je, sikuwaokoa kutoka mikononi mwao?

13 Ka kuo mou liʻaki au ke tauhi ʻae ngaahi ʻotua kehe: ko ia ʻe ʻikai te u kei fakamoʻui ʻakimoutolu.

Lakini ninyi mmeniacha mimi na kutumikia miungu mingine, kwa hiyo sitawaokoa tena.

14 ‌ʻAlu ʻo tangi ki he ngaahi ʻotua ʻaia kuo mou fili: tuku kenau fakamoʻui ʻakimoutolu ʻi he ʻaho ʻo hoʻomou tuʻutāmaki lahi.”

Nendeni mkaililie ile miungu mlioichagua. Hiyo miungu na iwaokoe mnapokuwa katika taabu!”

15 Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli kia Sihova, “Kuo mau fai angahala: ke ke fai ʻe koe ʻaia ʻoku lelei kiate koe kiate kimautolu: ka ʻoku mau kole kiate koe ke ke fakamoʻui ʻakimautolu he ʻaho ni.”

Lakini Waisraeli wakamwambia Bwana, “Tumetenda dhambi. Ututendee lile unaloona kuwa jema kwako, lakini twakusihi utuokoe sasa.”

16 Pea naʻa nau tukuange ʻiate kinautolu ʻae ngaahi ʻotua kehe naʻe ʻiate kinautolu, ʻonau tauhi ʻa Sihova: pea naʻe mamahi hono laumālie ʻi he mamahi ʻa ʻIsileli.

Nao wakaiondoa hiyo miungu migeni katikati yao nao wakamtumikia Bwana. Naye akahuzunika kwa sababu ya taabu ya Israeli.

17 Pea naʻe fakakātoa fakataha ai ʻae fānau ʻa ʻAmoni, ʻonau ʻapitanga ʻi Kiliati. Pea naʻe fakakātoa fakataha ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, ʻonau ʻapitanga ʻi Misipa.

Ndipo Waamoni wakaitwa vitani na kupiga kambi huko Gileadi, Waisraeli wakakusanyika na kupiga kambi huko Mispa.

18 Pea naʻe fepehēʻaki ʻe he kakai mo e houʻeiki ʻo Kiliati, “Ko hai ʻae tangata ʻe kamata ʻae tau ki he fānau ʻa ʻAmoni? ʻE hoko ia ko e ʻeiki ki he kakai kotoa pē ʻo Kiliati.”

Viongozi wa watu wa Gileadi wakaambiana wao kwa wao, “Yeyote yule atakayeanzisha mashambulizi dhidi ya Waamoni atakuwa kiongozi wa wote wakaao Gileadi.”
