Fakamaau 17
1 Pea naʻe ai ʻae tangata ʻoe moʻunga ʻo ʻIfalemi, naʻe hingoa ko Maika.
Waaliwo omusajja eyabeeranga mu nsi ey’ensozi Efulayimu, erinnya lye Mikka.
2 Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ia ki heʻene faʻē, “Ko e konga siliva ʻe taha afe mo e teau ʻe taha, ʻaia naʻe kaihaʻasi ʻiate koe, ʻaia naʻa ke kape ai, mo ke lea ki ai ʻi hoku ʻao foki, vakai, ʻoku ʻiate au ʻae siliva; ko au naʻaku ʻave ia.” Pea naʻe pehē ʻe heʻene faʻē, “Ko ʻeku tama, ke ke monūʻia koe ʻia Sihova.”
N’agamba nnyina nti, “Ebitundu bya ffeeza olukumi mu ekikumi ebyakubulako, n’okukolima n’okolima, nga mpulira, laba, effeeza eyo nze njirina. Nze nagitwala.” Awo nnyina n’amugamba nti, “Mwana wange, Mukama Katonda akuwe omukisa.”
3 Pea ʻi heʻene toe ʻatu ʻae konga siliva ʻe taha afe mo e teau ki heʻene faʻē, naʻe pehē ʻe heʻene faʻē, “Naʻe ʻosi ʻeku fakatapu hono kotoa ʻoe siliva kia Sihova mei hoku nima, pea mei heʻeku tama, ke ngaohi ʻaki ia ʻae meʻa fakatātā kuo tā mo e meʻa fakatātā kuo haka: pea ko eni, te u toe tuku ia kiate koe.”
Awo bwe yakomyawo ebitundu bya ffeeza ebyo olukumi mu ekikumi, eri nnyina, nnyina n’amugamba nti, “Mpaayo effeeza eno eri Mukama Katonda, okuva mu mukono gwange ku lw’omwana wange, ekolebwemu ekifaananyi ekyole n’ekifaananyi ekisaanuuse, era ndimuzza gy’oli.”
4 Ka naʻa ne toe ʻatu ʻae ngaahi paʻanga ki heʻene faʻē; pea toʻo ʻe heʻene faʻē ʻo tuku ki he tufunga haka meʻa, ʻae konga siliva ʻe uangeau, ʻaia naʻa ne ngaohi ʻaki ʻae meʻa fakatātā kuo tā mo e fakatātā kuo haka: pea ne na tuʻu ʻi he fale ʻo Maika.
Awo bwe yazza effeeza, nnyina n’addira ebitundu ebikumi bibiri ebya ffeeza, n’abiwa omuweesi wa ffeeza, n’abikolamu ekifaananyi ekyole n’ekifaananyi ekisaanuuse. Ne biteekebwa mu nnyumba ya Mikka.
5 Pea naʻe ʻi he tangata ko Maika ha fale ʻo hono ʻotua, pea naʻa ne ngaohi ha ʻefoti mo e tamapua, pea naʻa ne fakatapui hono foha ʻe tokotaha, ʻaia naʻe hoko ko ʻene taulaʻeiki.
Omusajja oyo Mikka yalina essabo. N’akola efodi, n’ebifaananyi ebyole n’ayawula omu ku batabani be okuba kabona we.
6 Pea ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho ko ia naʻe ʻikai ha tuʻi ʻi ʻIsileli, ka naʻe fai ʻe he tangata kotoa pē ʻaia naʻe lelei ʻi hono mata ʻoʻona.
Mu biro ebyo tewaaliwo kabaka mu Isirayiri, era buli muntu yakolanga nga bw’alaba.
7 Pea naʻe ai ʻae tangata talavou ʻe taha mei Petelihema Siuta ʻi he faʻahinga ʻo Siuta, ko e Livai ia, pea naʻe nofo ia ʻi ai.
Ne wabaawo omuvubuka ow’omu kika kya Yuda nga Muleevi, eyabeeranga mu Besirekemuyuda.
8 Pea naʻe hiki ʻae tangata ko ia mei he kolo ko Petelihema Siuta ke ʻalu ʻo ʻāunofo ʻi ha potu te ne hoko ki ai: pea naʻe hoko atu ia ki he moʻunga ko ʻIfalemi ki he fale ʻo Maika, ʻi heʻene fononga.
N’ava mu kibuga kya Besirekemuyuda n’atandika okunoonya gy’anaabera, n’atuuka mu nsi ey’ensozi eya Efulayimu mu nnyumba ya Mikka. Wabula yali akyali ku lugendo ng’akyanoonya aw’okubeera.
9 Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Maika kiate ia, “ʻOku ke haʻu mei fē? Pea pehē ʻe ia kiate ia, Ko e Livai au mei Petelihema Siuta, pea ʻoku ou ʻalu ke nofo ʻi ha potu pe.”
Mikka n’amubuuza nti, “Ova wa?” Omuleevi n’amuddamu nti, “Nva mu Besirekemuyuda, era nnoonya we nnyinza okubeera.”
10 Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Maika kiate ia, “Ke ta nonofo, mo au, pea ke ʻiate au ko e tamai mo e taulaʻeiki, pea te u ʻatu kiate koe ʻae konga siliva ʻe hongofulu ʻi he taʻu ʻe taha, mo e ngaahi kofu kotoa, pea mo e meʻakai.” Pea naʻe afe ki lotoʻā ʻae tangata Livai.
Mikka n’amugamba nti, “Beera nange, obeere kitange era kabona, nange ndikuwa ebitundu bya ffeeza kkumi ng’empeera, era ne nkuwa n’engoye n’emmere.” Omuleevi n’abeera naye.
11 Pea naʻe fiemālie ai ʻae Livai ke na nonofo mo e tangata; pea naʻe tatau ʻae talavou kiate ia mo hono foha ʻe taha.
Awo Omuleevi n’akkiriza okubeera n’omusajja oyo, era omuvubuka n’aba gy’ali ng’omu ku batabani be.
12 Pea naʻe fakanofo ʻe Maika ʻae tangata Livai; pea naʻe hoko ʻae talavou ko hono taulaʻeiki, pea naʻe nofo ia ʻi he fale ʻo Maika.
Awo Mikka n’ayawula Omuleevi, era omuvubuka oyo n’abeera kabona we n’abeera mu nnyumba ya Mikka.
13 Pea naʻe pehē ai ʻe Maika, “ʻOku ou ʻilo eni ʻe fai lelei ʻe Sihova kiate au, he kuo u maʻu ha [tangata ]Livai ke taulaʻeiki.”
Mikka n’ayogera nti, “Kaakano mmanyi nga Mukama Katonda anankoleranga ebirungi, kubanga nnina Omuleevi nga kabona wange.”
