< 4 Mose 32 >
1 Na Ruben ne Gad mmusuakuw no wɔ nyɛmmoa pii, enti wuhuu sɛ Yaser ne Gilead nsase no beye ama wɔn nguan ne anantwi no.
AbakoRubheni labakoGadi ababelemihlambi emikhulu yenkomo leyezimvu babona ukuthi amadlelo emangweni weJazeri leGiliyadi ayemahle ezifuyweni.
2 Enti wɔkɔɔ Mose ne ɔsɔfo Eleasar ne nnipa no ntuanofo no nkyɛn kɔka kyerɛɛ wɔn se,
Ngakho baya kuMosi laku-Eliyazari umphristi lakubakhokheli babantu, bathi,
3 “Atarot, Dibon, Yaser, Nimra, Hesbon, Eleale, Sebam, Nebo ne Beon yɛ
“Umhlaba we-Atharothi, leDibhoni, leJazeri, leNimra, leHeshibhoni, le-Eliyale, leSebhami, leNebho kanye leBheyoni,
4 nsase a Awurade ako, agye ama Israelfo na eye ma yɛn nguan ne yɛn anantwi.
uThixo awunqoba phambi kwabako-Israyeli, ngumhlaba olungele izifuyo, njalo thina nceku zenu silezifuyo.”
5 Sɛ yɛanya adom wɔ mo anim a, yɛsrɛ mo momfa saa asase yi mma yɛn sɛ yɛn kyɛfa na munnyae Asubɔnten Yordan agya nohɔ a mopɛ sɛ mode ma yɛn no.”
Basebesithi, “Nxa sifumene umusa emehlweni enu, lelilizwe aliphiwe izinceku zenu libe yisabelo sethu. Lingenzi ukuba sichaphe uJodani.”
6 Mose nso bisaa Rubenfo ne Gadfo no se, “Mokyerɛ sɛ, mopɛ sɛ motena ha bere a mo nuanom atwa mu rekɔko?
UMosi wabuza abakoGadi labakoRubheni wathi, “Kambe lingahlala lapha amanye amadoda akini esiya empini na?
7 Adɛn nti na mopɛ sɛ mubu Israelfo no aba mu ma wɔsan sɛ wɔrenkɔ asase a Awurade de ama wɔn no so no?
Kungani lithelela abako-Israyeli ukwesaba ukuchaphela elizweni abaliphiwa nguThixo na?
8 Ade koro yi ara na mo agyanom yɛe. Mesomaa wɔn fii Kades-Barnea sɛ wɔnkɔsra asase no.
Yikho lokhu okwenziwa ngoyihlo ekubathumeni kwami besuka eKhadeshi Bhaneya ukuyahlola ilizwe.
9 Wowiee nsra no na wofi Eskol subon mu bae no, wobuu nnipa no aba mu sɛ wɔnnkɔ asase a Awurade de ama wɔn no so.
Bathi sebehambe baze bayafika eSigodini sase-Eshikholi balibona ilizwe, bathelela abako-Israyeli ukwesaba ukungena elizweni abaliphiwa nguThixo.
10 Da no Awurade abufuw sɔree na ɔkaa saa ntam yi:
Ulaka lukaThixo lwaqubuka ngalolosuku waze wenza lesisifungo.
11 ‘Esiane sɛ wɔamfi wɔn koma nyinaa mu anni mʼakyi nti wɔn mu biara nni hɔ a bere a wɔrefi Misraim no a na wadi mfe aduonu anaa nea ɛboro saa a no behu asase a mehyɛɛ Abraham, Isak ne Yakob ho bɔ no,
‘Ngenxa yokuthi abangilandelanga ngezinhliziyo zabo ezipheleleyo, kakho loyedwa emadodeni wonke aleminyaka engamatshumi amabili kusiya phezulu okuzalwa kwabavela eGibhithe ozabona ilizwe engalithembisa u-Abhrahama, u-Isaka loJakhobe ngesifungo,
12 ɔbaako mpo nni hɔ, gye Kenesini Yefune babarima Kaleb ne Nun babarima Yosua, efisɛ wɔde wɔn koma nyinaa dii Awurade akyi, hyɛɛ nnipa nkuran sɛ wɔnkɔ Bɔhyɛ Asase no so.’
kakho loyedwa ngaphandle kukaKhalebi indodana kaJefune umKhenizi kanye loJoshuwa indodana kaNuni, ngoba laba balandela uThixo ngezinhliziyo ezipheleleyo.’
13 Awurade maa yekyinkyin sare no so hɔ mfirihyia aduanan kosii sɛ saa awo ntoatoaso amumɔyɛfo no nyinaa wuwui.
Ulaka lukaThixo lwavutha wabazondela abako-Israyeli njalo wabenza bantula enkangala okweminyaka engamatshumi amane, kwaze kwaphela bonke abentanga yalabo ababonile phambi kukaThixo.
14 “Nanso monhwɛ, abɔnefo, moregyina mo agyanom anan mu ama Awurade bo afuw Israel nea ɛkyɛn so.
Khathesi nanku-ke lina, nzalo yezoni, selimi endaweni yaboyihlo libangela ukuthi uThixo athukuthelele abako-Israyeli ngamandla.
15 Sɛ mosan fi nʼakyi a, ɔbɛsan agyaw ne nnipa no nyinaa wɔ sare so hɔ na wɔn sɛe no befi mo.”
Nxa lingala ukumlandela, uThixo uzaphinde atshiye bonke lababantu bakhe enkangala, njalo kuzabe kuyini elibangele incithakalo yabo.”
16 Wɔteɛɛ mu se, “Ɛnte saa koraa! Yɛbɛyɛ yɛn nguannan na yɛakyekyere nkurow akɛse ama yɛn mmea ne mmofra.
Ngakho beza kuye bathi, “Sifuna ukwakha izibaya zezifuyo zethu njalo sakhele omkethu labantwabethu amadolobho.
17 Na yɛn ankasa de akode bɛhyehyɛ yɛn ho adi Israelfo a wɔaka no anim akosi sɛ yɛde wɔn bɛba asomdwoe mu ama wɔabɛfa wɔn agyapade. Na nea edi kan no, ɛsɛ sɛ yɛkyekye nkurow a yebegye afasu afa ho ama yɛn nkurɔfo atena mu na ɛhɔfo no ankɔtow anhyɛ wɔn so.
Kodwa thina sesilungele ukuzihlomisa ukuze sikhokhele abako-Israyeli size siyebafikisa endaweni yabo. Kunjalo-nje omkethu labantwabethu bazasala emadolobheni avikelekileyo, ukuze bangahlaselwa ngabanikazi balelolizwe.
18 Sɛ Israelfo no nyinaa nsa nkaa wɔn agyapade no a, yɛrensan mma yɛn afi mu.
Kasiyikubuyela kweyethu imizi wonke owako-Israyeli aze azuze isabelo sakhe.
19 Yɛne wɔn renkyɛ Yordan agya hɔ asase biara, efisɛ yɛanya yɛn agyapade no wɔ Yordan apuei fam hɔ.”
Thina kasiyikuzuza isabelo kanye labo ngale kweJodani, ngoba esethu isabelo sisithole ngapha ngempumalanga kweJodani.”
20 Mose kae se, “Sɛ mobɛyɛ sɛnea moaka no, sɛ mobɛhyehyɛ mo ho wɔ Awurade anim ama ɔko,
Ngakho uMosi wathi kubo, “Nxa lizakwenza lokhu, lizihlomisele ukuhlasela phambi kukaThixo,
21 na mode mo asraafo no atwa Yordan kosi sɛ Awurade bɛpam nʼatamfo no,
njalo nxa lonke lizahamba lihlomile ngale kweJodani phambi kukaThixo aze adudule izitha phambi kwakhe,
22 na sɛ asase no ho asɛm dwo brɛoo wɔ Awurade anim a, ɛno de mutumi san ba. Ɛba saa a, na ɛkyerɛ sɛ, moayɛ mo asɛde ama Awurade ne Israelfo nyinaa. Na asase a ɛda apuei no nso, Awurade de bɛma mo.
kuthi nxa ilizwe selinqotshiwe phambi kukaThixo selingaphenduka njalo liyabe selikhululekile emlandwini wenu kuThixo laku-Israyeli. Ngalokho-ke lelilizwe lizakuba yisabelo senu phambi kukaThixo.
23 “Sɛ moanni asɛm a moaka no so a, na moayɛ bɔne atia Awurade, munhu sɛ, ɛho asotwe bɛba mo so.
Kodwa lingehluleka ukwenza lokhu, lizabe lonile phambi kukaThixo; njalo yazini ukuthi isono senu sizalifumana.
24 Monkɔ so nkyekyere nkurow mma mo fifo na monyɛ nguannan mma mo nguan na munni asɛm a mokae no nyinaa so.”
Yakhelani abesifazane benu labantwabenu amadolobho, njalo lakhele izifuyo zenu izibaya, kodwa yenzani lokho elikuthembisileyo.”
25 Ruben ne Gad nkurɔfo no kae se, “Yebedi wʼahyɛde no so pɛpɛɛpɛ.
AbakoGadi labakoRubheni bathi kuMosi, “Thina izinceku zakho sizakwenza njengokulaya kwenkosi yethu.
26 Yɛn mma, yɛn yerenom, yɛn nguan ne yɛn anantwi bɛtena Gilead nkuropɔn mu.
Abantwabethu labomkethu, imihlambi yezimvu zethu leyenkomo zethu kuzasala lapha emadolobheni aseGiliyadi.
27 Nanso yɛn a wɔakyere yɛn sɛ asraafo no bɛko ama Awurade sɛnea woaka no.”
Kodwa thina zinceku zakho, yonke indoda ehlomele ukuhlasela, izachapha iyekulwa phambi kukaThixo, njengokutsho kwenkosi yethu.”
28 Enti Mose penee so ka kyerɛɛ Eleasar, Yosua ne mpanyimfo a wotuatua Israel mmusuakuw ano no se,
UMosi wasekhupha ilizwi lesiqondiso ngabo ku-Eliyazari umphristi lakuJoshuwa indodana kaNuni kanye lakulabo abazinhloko zezimuli zezizwana zako-Israyeli.
29 “Sɛ Gad ne Ruben abusuakuw mu mmarima nyinaa a wɔakyere wɔn ayɛ wɔn asraafo sɛ wɔnkɔko mma Awurade no ne me kɔ Yordan na sɛ wɔkɔko di nkonim wɔ hɔ a, momfa Gilead asase no mma wɔn;
Wathi kubo, “Nxa abakoGadi labakoRubheni, wonke amadoda ayabe ehlomele ukuhlasela, angachaphela ngale kweJodani kunye lani phambi kukaThixo, kube sekusithi nxa ilizwe selinqotshiwe phambi kwenu banikeni ilizwe laseGiliyadi libe yisabelo sabo.
30 na sɛ wɔankɔ a, ɛno de, wɔmpene so mfa nsase a mowɔ wɔ Kanaan asase so no bi.”
Kodwa nxa bengachaphanga lani behlomile, kumele bemukele isabelo sabo kunye lani eKhenani.”
31 Gad ne Ruben abusuafo kaa bio se, “Wo nkoa bedi Awurade asɛm so;
AbakoGadi labakoRubheni baphendula bathi, “Izinceku zakho zizakwenza okutshiwo nguThixo.
32 yɛde akode bɛhyehyɛ yɛn ho adi Awurade akyi akɔ Kanaan, nanso yɛn ara yɛn asase bɛda Yordan fa ha.”
Sizachaphela ngale phambi kukaThixo singene eKhenani sihlomile, kodwa ilifa eliyisabelo sethu lizakuba nganeno kweJodani.”
33 Enti Mose ma wɔde Amorihene Sihon ne Basanhene Og nsasetam ne wɔn nkurow akɛse maa Gad, Ruben ne Yosef babarima Manase mmusuakuw.
Ngakho uMosi wasenika abakoGadi, labakoRubheni kanye lengxenye yesizwana sakoManase indodana kaJosefa umbuso kaSihoni inkosi yama-Amori kanye lombuso ka-Ogi inkosi yaseBhashani, ilizwe lonke kanye lamadolobho alo kanye lamazwe ayebagqagqele.
34 Gad nkurɔfo na wɔkyekyeree saa nkurow yi: Dibon, Atarot, Aroer.
AbakoGadi bakha iDibhoni, i-Atharothi, i-Aroweri,
35 Atrot-Sofan, Yaser Yogbeha,
i-Athirothi-Shofani, iJazeri, iJogibheha,
36 Bet-Nimra ne Betharan. Na ɛyɛ nkurow a nguan wɔ mu yiye.
iBhethi-Nimra kanye leBhethi-Harani aba ngamadolobho ahonqolozelwe ngemithangala, njalo bakha lezibaya zemihlambi yezifuyo zabo.
37 Ruben mmabarima na wɔkyekyeree saa nkurow a edidi so yi: Hesbon, Eleale ne Kiriataim,
Kanti-ke abakoRubheni bakha kakutsha iHeshibhoni, i-Eliyale kanye leKhiriyathayimi,
38 Nebo, Baal-Meon a akyiri no wɔsesaa wɔn din, ne Sibma. Wɔtotoo nkurow a wɔsan kyekyee no din.
kanye lokwakha iNebho kanye leBhali-Meyoni (la amabizo aguqulwa) leSibhima. Betha amadolobho abawakha kutsha amabizo.
39 Makir asefo a wofi Manase abusuakuw mu kɔɔ Gilead kɔko dii hɔ so pam Amorifo a saa bere no na wɔte hɔ no nyinaa.
Izizukulwane zikaMakhiri indodana kaManase zaya eGiliyadi, zalithumba njalo zaxotsha ama-Amori ayekulelolizwe.
40 Enti Mose de Gilead maa Makirfo a wɔyɛ Manase asefo no, ma wɔtenaa hɔ.
Ngakho uMosi wapha elaseGiliyadi kumaMakhiri, izizukulwane zikaManase, basebehlala khona.
41 Manase abusuakuw mu nnipa foforo bi a wofi Yair nso tenatenaa Gilead nkurow bebree so, sesaa beae a wɔwɔ hɔ no din frɛɛ hɔ Hafrotyair.
UJayiri, umzukulu kaManase, wathumba imizi yabo wayibiza ngokuthi yiHarothi Jayiri.
42 Ɔbarima bi a ne din de Noba dii asraafo bi anim de wɔn kɔɔ Kenat ne ne nkuraase kɔbɔɔ wɔn atenae wɔ hɔ enti ɔde ne din Noba too saa beae hɔ.
Kanti uNobha wathumba iKhenathi kanye lemizi eyigqagqeleyo njalo wayetha ibizo lakhe wathi yiNobha.
