< 1 Mose 38 >
1 Saa bere no mu ara na Yuda tu fii ne nuabarimanom no nkyɛn ne Adulamni barima bi a wɔfrɛ no Hira kɔtenae.
Pa nthawi imeneyi, Yuda anasiyana ndi abale ake napita kukakhala ndi munthu wina wa ku Adulamu wotchedwa Hira.
2 Ɛhɔ na Yuda kohyiaa Kanaanni beae bi a ɔyɛ ɔbarima bi a wɔfrɛ no Sua no babea. Yuda waree Sua babea no.
Kumeneko, Yuda anaona mwana wamkazi wa munthu wina wa Chikanaani wotchedwa Suwa. Anamukwatira nagona naye malo amodzi.
3 Sua babea no nyinsɛn woo ɔbabarima, na wɔtoo no din Er.
Iye anatenga pathupi, nabala mwana wamwamuna amene anamutcha Eri.
4 Sua babea no san nyinsɛn woo ɔbabarima bio. Wɔtoo abofra no din Onan.
Anatenganso pathupi nabala mwana wa mwamuna ndipo anamutcha Onani.
5 Sua babea no nyinsɛn ne mprɛnsa so wɔ Kesib, woo ɔbabarima bio. Saa abarimaa no nso wɔtoo no din Sela.
Anaberekanso mwana wina wamwamuna ndipo anamutcha Sela. Ameneyu anabadwa Yuda ali ku Kezibi.
6 Bere a Yuda abakan Er nyin no, wɔwaree ababaa bi a wɔfrɛ no Tamar maa no.
Yuda anamupezera mkazi mwana wake woyamba uja Eri, ndipo dzina la mkaziyo linali Tamara.
7 Esiane sɛ na Yuda abakan Er yɛ omumɔyɛfo wɔ Awurade anim no nti, Awurade kum no.
Koma ntchito zoyipa za Eri, mwana wachisamba wa Yuda zinayipira Yehova. Choncho Mulungu anamulanga ndi imfa.
8 Er wu akyi no, Yuda ka kyerɛɛ Er akyiba Onan se, “Ɛsɛ sɛ woware okunafo Tamar, sɛnea yɛn amanne te no, na sɛ wo ne no wo a, mma no ayɛ wo nua no diadefo.”
Pamenepo Yuda anati kwa Onani, “Kwatira mkazi wamasiye wa mʼbale wako. Ulowe chokolo kuti mʼbale wako akhale ndi mwana.”
9 Esiane sɛ na Onan mpɛ sɛ ɔbɛwo akyɛ a mmofra no renyɛ nʼankasa mma nti, sɛ ɔne okunafo Tamar kɔda a, ɔmma ne ho nsu no ngu ɔbea no mu. Mmom, ɔma no gu fam sɛnea ɛbɛyɛ a, ɔrenwo ɔba a ɛbɛyɛ ne nua owufo no de.
Koma Onani anadziwa kuti mwanayo sadzakhala wake. Choncho nthawi zonse pamene amagona naye mkaziyo, ankatayira umuna pansi kuti asamuberekere mwana mʼbale wake.
10 Esiane sɛ nea ɔyɛe no ansɔ Awurade ani, sɛ ɔmpɛ sɛ ɔwo ba ma ne nua owufo no nti, okum ɔno nso.
Zimene ankachitazi zinayipira Yehova. Choncho anamulanganso ndi imfa.
11 Na Yuda ka kyerɛɛ nʼase okunafo Tamar se, “Tu na kɔtena wʼagya fi sɛ okunafo kosi sɛ me babarima Sala benyin.” Na osuro sɛ, Sela nso bewu, sɛnea ne nuanom mpanyimfo Er ne Onan wuwui no. Enti Tamar tu kɔtenaa nʼagya fi hɔ.
Kenaka Yuda anati kwa mpongozi wake Tamara, “Bwererani ku nyumba ya abambo anu ndi kukhala kumeneko ngati wamasiye mpaka mwana wanga Sela atakula.” Ananena izi chifukwa ankaopa kuti Sela angafenso ngati abale ake aja. Choncho Tamara anapita kukakhala ku nyumba ya abambo ake.
12 Mmere bi akyi no, Yuda yere a ɔyɛ Sua babea no nso wui. Bere a woyii Yuda fii kuna mu no, ɔkɔɔ ne nguanhotwitwafo nkyɛn wɔ Timna. Ɔrekɔ no, ɔne nʼadamfo Adulamni Hira na ɛkɔe.
Patapita nthawi yayitali, Batishua, mkazi wa Yuda anamwalira. Yuda atatha kulira maliro a mkazi wake, anapita, iyeyu pamodzi ndi bwenzi lake Hira, Mwadulamu uja, ku Timna kumene ankameta nkhosa zawo.
13 Obi bɛbɔɔ Tamar amanneɛ se, “Wʼase Yuda rebɛsen akɔ Timna akotwitwa ne nguan ho nwi.”
Tamara atamva kuti apongozi ake akupita ku Timna kukameta nkhosa,
14 Enti Tamar yii ne kuna ntade no guu hɔ. Ɔfaa nkataanim kataa nʼanim, sɛnea ɛbɛyɛ a obiara nhu sɛ ɛyɛ ɔno Tamar, na ɔkɔtenaa Enaim kurotia wɔ Timna kwan so. Efisɛ ohuu sɛ Sela anyin de, nanso na Yuda mmaa ne babarima no kwan mma ɔmmɛwaree no ɛ.
iye anavula zovala zake za umasiye, nadziphimba nkhope ndi nsalu kuti asadziwike, ndipo anakhala pansi pa chipata cha ku Enaimu popita ku Timna. Tamara anachita izi chifukwa anaona kuti ngakhale Selayo anali atakula tsopano, iye sanaperekedwe kuti amulowe chokolo.
15 Bere a Yuda huu Tamar no, na osusuw sɛ ɔyɛ ɔbea guamanfo bi, efisɛ na wakata nʼanim.
Yuda atamuona anangomuyesa mkazi wadama chabe, chifukwa anadziphimba nkhope.
16 Yuda kɔɔ Tamar nkyɛn wɔ kwankyɛn hɔ a, na onnim sɛ ɔyɛ nʼase. Yuda ka kyerɛɛ no se, “Ma yɛnkɔ mprempren ara na me ne wo nkɔda.” Tamar bisaa no se, “Sɛ me ne wo kɔda a, wobɛma me dɛn?”
Tsono anapita kwa mkaziyo pamphepete pa msewu paja nati, “Tabwera ndigone nawe.” Apa Yuda sankadziwa kuti mkazi uja anali mpongozi wake. Ndiye mkazi uja anamufunsa Yuda nati, “Mudzandipatsa chiyani kuti ndigone nanu?”
17 Yuda buae se, “Mɛma wɔde ɔpapo afi me nguankuw no mu abrɛ wo.” Tamar bisaa no bio se, “Ansa na wode ɔpapo no bɛba no, dɛn na wode bedi wo ho akagyinamu?”
Iye anati, “Ndidzakutumizira kamwana kambuzi ka mʼkhola mwanga.” Mkaziyo anayankha kuti, “Chabwino, ndavomera, koma mungandipatse chikole mpaka mutanditumizira mbuziyo?”
18 Yuda nso bisaa no se, “Dɛn ade na wopɛ sɛ mede di me ho akagyinamu?” Tamar buae se, “Nea wode bedi wo ho akagyinamu ne wo nsa so kaa ne ne hama ne saa pema a wukura yi.” Enti Yuda de saa nneɛma yi nyinaa maa Tamar ne no kɔda ma onyinsɛnee.
Iye anati, “Ndikupatse chikole chanji?” Mkaziyo anayankha, “Mundipatse mphete yanuyo, chingwe chanucho pamodzi ndi ndodo imene ili mʼdzanja lanulo.” Choncho anazipereka kwa iye nagona naye ndipo anatenga pathupi.
19 Tamar fii hɔ akyi no, okoyii ne nkataanim no guu hɔ, san faa ne kunatam no furae.
Kenaka Tamara anachoka, navula nsalu anadziphimba nayo ija, navalanso zovala zake za umasiye zija.
20 Yuda de ɔpapo no maa nʼadamfo Adulamni no sɛ, ɔmfa nkɔma ɔbea no, na onnye nneɛma a ɔde dii ne ho akagyinamu no mmrɛ no, nanso wanhu no.
Tsono Yuda anatuma bwenzi lake Mwadulamu uja ndi kamwana kambuzi kaja kuti akapereke kwa mkazi wadama uja, ndi kuti akatero amubwezere chikole chake chija. Koma atafika sanamupezepo.
21 Obisaa kurom hɔfo no se, “Ɛhe na hyiadan mu ɔbea guamanfo a na ɔte Enaim kwankyɛn frɛfrɛ mmarima no wɔ?” Wobuaa no se, “Yenni hyiadan mu ɔbea guamanfo biara wɔ ha.”
Anawafunsa anthu a komweko, “Kodi mkazi wadama uja amene ankakhala pambali pa msewu wa ku Enaimu, ali kuti?” Iwo anayankha, “Sipanakhalepo mkazi wa dama aliyense pano.”
22 Enti ɔsan kɔɔ Yuda hɔ, kɔka kyerɛɛ no se, “Manhu no. Na kurom hɔfo nso kae se, ‘Hyiadan mu ɔbea oguamanfo biara nni ha.’”
Choncho anabwerera kwa Yuda nati, “Sindinamupeze mkazi uja. Kuwonjeza apo, anthu a kumeneko amati, ‘Sipanakhalepo mkazi wadama pano.’”
23 Yuda nso kae se, “Ma no mfa nneɛma no, na anyɛ saa a wɔbɛserew yɛn. Wo ara wudi ho adanse sɛ memaa wode ɔpapo no kɔe, nanso woanhu no.”
Pamenepo Yuda anati, “Mulekeni atenge zinthuzo zikhale zake, kuopa kuti anthu angatiseke. Ine sindinalakwe, ndinamutumizira kamwana kambuzika, koma simunamupeze.”
24 Ɛbɛyɛ asram abiɛsa akyi no, Yuda tee sɛ nʼase Tamar abɔ aguaman, anyinsɛn. Ɔtee saa asɛm no, ɔkae se, “Monkɔkyere no mmra, na yɛnhyew no nkum no.”
Patapita miyezi itatu, Yuda anawuzidwa kuti, “Mpongozi wanu Tamara anachita zadama, ndipo zotsatira zake nʼzakuti ali ndi pathupi.” Yuda anati, “Kamutulutseni ndipo mukamutenthe kuti afe!”
25 Wɔkɔkyeree Tamar de no reba abekum no no, ɔsoma ma wɔkɔka kyerɛɛ nʼase Yuda se, “Onipa a ne nneɛma ni no na ɔne me nyinsɛnee. Monhwɛ sɛ mubehu onipa ko a saa nsa so kaa ne ne hama ne pema yi yɛ ne de no ana.”
Akumutulutsa, iye anatuma mawu kwa apongozi ake. Anati, “Ndili ndi pathupi pa munthu amene ndi mwini wake wa zinthu izi. Taziyangʼanitsitsani, kodi mwini wa khoza, chingwe ndi ndodo yoyenderayi ndi yani?”
26 Yuda gye too mu se, saa nneɛma no yɛ ne dea. Ɔtoaa so se, “Ɔbea yi yɛ ɔtreneeni sen me, efisɛ mamfa no amma me babarima Sela anware.” Efi saa bere no, Yuda ankɔ Tamar ho bio.
Yuda anazizindikira zinthuzo ndipo anati, “Uyu ndi wolungama kuposa ine, chifukwa sindinamupereke kwa mwana wanga Sela.” Ndipo Yuda sanagone nayenso.
27 Tamar awo duu so no, ɔwoo nta.
Pamene Tamara nthawi inamukwanira yoti abeleke, mʼmimbamo munali mapasa.
28 Bere a ɔrewo no, nta no mu baako de ne nsa dii kan bae. Enti ɔbea a ɔregye no awo no de asaawa kɔkɔɔ bɔɔ abofra no bakɔn, kae se, “Oyi na wɔwoo no kan.”
Pamene ankabereka, mmodzi wa iwo anatulutsa dzanja lake. Choncho mzamba anatenga kawulusi kofiira nakamangirira pa mkono pa mwanayo nati, “Uyu ndiye anayamba kubadwa.”
29 Saa abofra no twee ne nsa san kɔɔ mu. Ɔsan twee ne nsa kɔɔ mu no, wɔwoo ne nua a ɔka ne ho no mmom. Na ɔwogyefo no kae se, “Abususɛm bɛn ni!” Wɔtoo no din Peres.
Koma pamene anabweza mkonowo, mʼbale wake anabadwa ndipo mzamba anati, “Wachita kudziphotcholera wekha njira chonchi!” Ndipo anamutcha Perezi.
30 Akyiri no, ɔwoo ne nuabarima a na asaawa kɔkɔɔ bɔ ne nsakɔn no. Wɔtoo ɔno nso din Serah.
Pambuyo pake mʼbale wake amene anali ndi ulusi wofiira pa mkono wake uja anabadwa ndipo anapatsidwa dzina lakuti Zera.
