< 1 Mose 34 >

1 Da koro bi, Lea ne Yakob ba Dina fii adi kɔsraa mmabaa a wɔwɔ wɔn mpɔtam hɔ no.
UDina indodakazi kaLeya, ayizalela uJakobe, wasephuma ukuyabona amadodakazi elizwe.
2 Bere a Hewifohene Hamor babarima Sekem huu Dina no, ɔkyeree no kɔtoo no mmonnaa.
Njalo uShekema indodana kaHamori umHivi, isiphathamandla selizwe, sambona, samthatha, salala laye, samona.
3 Efi saa bere no, Sekem tuu nʼani sii Yakob ba Dina so. Ɔbɔɔ mmɔden ara sɛ ɔne no bɛkasa ama wapene so, na waware no.
Inhliziyo yaso yasinamathela kuDina indodakazi kaJakobe, sayithanda intombi, sakhuluma kunhliziyo yentombi.
4 Ɛno nti, Sekem dii ho nkɔmmɔ kyerɛɛ nʼagya Hamor se, “Mepɛ sɛ meware ababaa yi, enti kɔka ne ho asɛm ma me!”
UShekema wasekhuluma kuHamori uyise esithi: Ngithathela lintombi ibe ngumkami.
5 Bere a Yakob tee sɛ Sekem akɔkyere ne babea Dina akɔto no mmonnaa no, na ne mmabarima no nyinaa ne wɔn agya anantwi wɔ wuram. Enti Yakob anka hwee kosii sɛ wɔbae.
UJakobe wasesizwa ukuthi usemngcolisile uDina indodakazi yakhe; lamadodana akhe ayesezifuyweni egangeni; njalo uJakobe wathula aze afika.
6 Sekem nʼagya Hamor kɔɔ Yakob nkyɛn ne no kodii nkɔmmɔ.
UHamori uyise kaShekema wasephuma waya kuJakobe ukuze akhulume laye.
7 Yakob mmabarima no tee wɔn nuabea Dina ho asɛm no pɛ, wofii wuram hɔ bae. Wɔn werɛ howee na wɔn bo nso fuw yiye, efisɛ Sekem ayɛ aniwude wɔ Israel. Ɔne Yakob babea dae, na eyi yɛ akyiwade.
Kwathi amadodana kaJakobe efika evela egangeni esezwile, amadoda adabuka, athukuthela kakhulu ngoba wayenze ubuphukuphuku koIsrayeli ngokulala lendodakazi kaJakobe, okungafanele kwenziwe ngokunjalo.
8 Nanso Hamor ka kyerɛɛ Yakob se, “Me ba Sekem ani gye wo ba Dina ho. Mesrɛ wo, fa no ma no na ɔnware no.
UHamori wasekhuluma labo esithi: UShekema indodana yami, inhliziyo yakhe iyayilangatha indodakazi yenu; ake limnike yona ibe ngumkakhe.
9 Mo ne yenni aware. Momfa mo mmabea mma yɛn, na yɛnware wɔn, na yɛn nso, yɛmfa yɛn mmabea mma mo aware.
Njalo yendiselanani lathi, lisiphe amadodakazi enu, lani lizithathele amadodakazi ethu.
10 Mubetumi ne yɛn atena. Asase yi nyinaa yɛ mo dea. Montena so, nni gua wɔ so, mpɛ mu agyapade.”
Hlalani-ke lathi, lelizwe lizakuba phambi kwenu; hlalani lithengiselane kulo, lifuye kulo.
11 Na Sekem ka kyerɛɛ Dina nʼagya ne ne nuabarimanom no se “Munnye me nto mu. Biribiara a mubegye me no, metua.
UShekema wasesithi kuyise wentombi lakubanewabo: Angithole umusa emehlweni enu; lalokho elizakutsho kimi ngizanika.
12 Ɔbea no ti ade ne biribiara a mubegye aka ho no, mommɔ bo biara a mopɛ, na metua. Nea ehia me ara ne sɛ, mode ababaa no bɛma me aware.”
Yandisani kakhulu kimi ilobolo lesipho, njalo ngizakupha njengoba litshilo kimi; kodwa ngiphani intombi ibe ngumkami.
13 Esiane sɛ na Sekem agu wɔn nuabea Dina ho fi no nti, mmuae a wɔmaa Sekem ne nʼagya Hamor no anyɛ nokware. Na mmom, na wɔwɔ adwene foforo bi wɔ akyi.
Amadodana kaJakobe asephendula uShekema loHamori uyise ngobuqili, athi, ngenxa yokuthi ubesemngcolisile uDina udadewabo,
14 Yakob mmabarima no ka kyerɛɛ Sekem ne nʼagya Hamor se, “Yɛrentumi mfa yɛn nuabea mma ɔbarima a ontwaa twetia aware. Sɛ yɛyɛ saa a, na yɛagu yɛn ho anim ase.
athi kubo: Asilakuyenza lindaba, ukunika udadewethu indoda engasokwanga, ngoba kulihlazo kithi.
15 Ansa na yɛde yɛn nuabea bɛma wo aware no, gye sɛ woatwitwa wo mmarima nyinaa twetia te sɛ yɛn.
Kodwa ngalokhu singalivumela, uba libe njengathi, ukuthi wonke owesilisa wakini asokwe,
16 Sɛ moyɛ saa de a, yɛne mo bedi aware. Mobɛware yɛn mmea, na yɛn nso, yɛaware mo mmea. Yɛne mo bɛtena fɛfɛɛfɛ sɛ nnipa baako.
sizalinika-ke amadodakazi ethu, lathi amadodakazi enu sizithathele, njalo sihlale lani sibe yisizwe sinye.
17 Sɛ moampene so amma wɔantwitwa mo twetia de a, yebegye yɛn nuabea de no akɔ.”
Kodwa uba lingasilaleli lisokwe, sizathatha indodakazi yethu, sihambe.
18 Asɛm a wɔkae no tɔɔ Hamor ne ne ba Sekem asom.
Lamazwi abo aba mahle emehlweni kaHamori, lemehlweni kaShekema indodana kaHamori.
19 Sekem a na ɔyɛ aberante a odi mu wɔ nʼagya mma nyinaa mu no antwentwɛn ne nan ase koraa. Okotwaa twetia no, sɛnea Yakob mma no kae no, efisɛ na ɔpɛ Yakob babea no yiye.
Njalo ijaha kaliphuzanga ukwenza lindaba, ngoba yayilentokozo endodakazini kaJakobe; yayilodumo kulendlu yonke kayise.
20 Enti Hamor ne ne ba Sekem kɔbɔɔ gua wɔ kurow no pon ano ne ɛhɔ mmarima kɔkasae se,
UHamori wasefika, loShekema indodana yakhe, esangweni lomuzi wabo, basebekhuluma kumadoda omuzi wabo, besithi:
21 “Yakob ne ne mma yi ne yɛn te yiye. Mompene so na wɔne yɛn ntena yɛn asase yi so, na yenni gua. Efisɛ yɛn asase yi so a yɛne wɔn bɛsen so. Yebetumi aware wɔn mmabea, na wɔn nso betumi aware yɛn de.
Lamadoda alokuthula lathi; ngakho kabahlale elizweni bathengiselane kulo; ngoba ilizwe, khangelani, libanzi inhlangothi zombili phambi kwawo; amadodakazi abo sizawathatha abe ngomkethu, lamadodakazi ethu sizawanika wona.
22 Nanso ansa na wɔn mmarima no bɛpene so ne yɛn atena sɛ nnipa koro no, gye sɛ yɛn mmarima nyinaa twitwa twetia, sɛnea wɔn nso wɔatwitwa twetia no.
Kulokhu kuphela amadoda azavumelana lathi, ukuhlala lathi, ukuba yisizwe sinye, nxa wonke owesilisa wethu esokiwe, njengalokhu esokiwe wona.
23 Sɛ ɛba saa a, wɔn mmoa, wɔn agyapade ne wɔn mmoa ahorow a ɛkeka ho no nyinaa remmɛyɛ yɛn de ana? Enti momma yɛmpene so mma wɔn, na yɛne wɔn ntena.”
Inkomo zawo lempahla yawo lazo zonke izifuyo zawo kaziyikuba ngezethu yini? Kuphela asiwavumele, ahlale-ke lathi.
24 Mmarima a wokohyiaa Hamor ne ne ba Sekem wɔ kurow no pon ano no nyinaa ne wɔn yɛɛ adwene maa mmarima a wɔwɔ kurom hɔ nyinaa twitwaa twetia.
Basebelalela uHamori loShekema indodana yakhe, bonke abaphuma ngesango lomuzi wakhe; basebesokwa, wonke owesilisa, bonke abaphuma ngesango lomuzi wakhe.
25 Nnansa akyi a na twetiatwa no nti, kurom hɔ mmarima no nyinaa deda hɔ a wogye wɔn ho a ennye no, Yakob mmabarima baanu Simeon ne Lewi a wɔyɛ Dina nuabarimanom no faa wɔn mpeaw. Wɔkɔtow hyɛɛ kurow no so bere a wɔn ani nna wɔn ho so, kunkum mmarima a wɔwɔ kurom hɔ nyinaa.
Kwasekusithi ngosuku lwesithathu beselobuhlungu, amadodana amabili kaJakobe, oSimeyoni loLevi, abanewabo bakaDina, ngulowo lalowo wathatha inkemba yakhe, awujuma umuzi, abulala wonke owesilisa.
26 Wɔde peaw kum Hamor ne ne ba Sekem, na wɔfaa wɔn nuabea Dina fii Sekem fi de no kɔɔ wɔn nkyɛn.
Asebabulala oHamori loShekema indodana yakhe ngobukhali benkemba, amkhupha uDina endlini kaShekema, aphuma.
27 Yakob mmabarima a wɔaka no nso tow hyɛɛ kurow no so. Wotiatiaa nnipa a wɔawuwu no so, fom kurow no mu nneɛma nyinaa pasaa, efisɛ ɛhɔ na Sekem guu wɔn nuabea Dina ho fi.
Amadodana kaJakobe ehlela phezu kwasebebulewe, awuphanga umuzi, ngoba babemngcolisile udadewabo.
28 Wɔfom wɔn mmoa, wɔn anantwi, wɔn nguan, wɔn mfurum ne wɔn agyapade biara a ɛwɔ kurow no mu ne nea ɛwɔ wuram nyinaa.
Athatha izimvu zabo lenkomo zabo labobabhemi babo lalokho okwakusemzini lalokho okwakusegangeni,
29 Wɔfaa wɔn ahode, wɔn yerenom ne wɔn mmea, fom wɔn afi mu nneɛma nyinaa.
lenotho yabo yonke, labantwana babo bonke abancinyane, labomkabo, athumba abaphanga, lakho konke okwakusendlini.
30 Na Yakob ka kyerɛɛ Simeon ne Lewi se, “Mode ɔhaw abɛto me so, ama nnɛ me ho koraa abɔn Perisifo ne Kanaanfo a mete wɔn asase so yi. Yɛnnɔɔso. Sɛ wɔka wɔn ho bo mu bɛtow hyɛ yɛn so a, wɔbɛhyew me ne mʼasefo nyinaa.”
UJakobe wasesithi kuSimeyoni loLevi: Lingihluphile, ngokungenza ukuthi ngibe levumba phakathi kwabakhileyo belizwe, phakathi kwamaKhanani lamaPerizi; njalo ngimlutshwana, futhi bazangihlanganyela bangitshaye, ngibe sengichitheka mina lendlu yami.
31 Na wobuaa wɔn agya se, “Enti anka yɛntena hɔ nhwɛ na ɔnyɛ yɛn nuabea sɛ oguamanfo ana?”
Basebesithi: Amenze yini udadewethu njengesifebe?
