Yosua 17
1 Wɔde asase no fa a ɛda atɔeɛ fam no maa Manase abusuakuo no fa a ɔyɛ Yosef babarima panin no asefoɔ. Na wɔde Gilead ne Basan a ɛda Yordan apueeɛ fam no ama Makir abusua no dada, ɛfiri sɛ, na ɔyɛ ɔkofoni kɛseɛ. (Na Makir yɛ Manase babarima panin ne Gilead agya.)
Lesi kwakuyisabelo sesizwana sikaManase njengezibulo likaJosefa. UMakhiri izibulo likaManase, ukhokho wamaGiliyadi, wathatha iGiliyadi leBhashani ngenxa yokuthi amaMakhire ayengamaqhawe amakhulu.
2 Asase a ɛda Yordan atɔeɛ fam no, wɔde maa mmusua nkaeɛ a wɔwɔ Manase abusuakuo mu a wɔn ne: Abieser, Helek, Asriel, Sekem, Hefer ne Semida.
Ngakho isabelo lesi sasingesabantu bonke bakoManase, insendo zika-Abhiyezeri, uHelekhi, u-Asiriyeli, uShekhemu, uHeferi loShemida. Lezi ngezinye izizukulwane zesilisa zikaManase indodana kaJosefa ngokwensendo zazo.
3 Nanso, Hefer babarima Selofehad a na ɔno nso yɛ Manase, Makir ne Gilead aseni no na ɔnni mmammarima. Mmom, na ɔwɔ mmammaa baanum. Na wɔn edin de Mahla, Noa, Hogla, Milka ne Tirsa.
UZelofehadi indodana kaHeferi, indodana kaGiliyadi, indodana kaMakhiri indodana kaManase, wayengelamadodana kodwa wayelamadodakazi wodwa, amabizo awo kwakunguMahila, uNowa, uHogila, uMilikha loThiza.
4 Saa mmaa yi baa ɔsɔfoɔ Eleasa ne Nun babarima Yosua ne Israel ntuanofoɔ no nkyɛn bɛkaa sɛ, “Awurade hyɛɛ Mose sɛ ɔmma yɛn ne mmarima a wɔwɔ yɛn abusuakuo mu no agyapadeɛ.” Enti, Yosua maa wɔne wɔn agyanom agyapadeɛ sɛdeɛ Awurade hyɛɛ no.
Aya ku-Eliyazari umphristi, loJoshuwa indodana kaNuni kanye labakhokheli athi, “UThixo walaya uMosi ukuthi asabele ilifa kanye labanewethu.” Ngakho uJoshuwa wabanika ilifa ndawonye labanewabo bakayise, kulandelwa umlayo kaThixo.
5 Ɛno enti Manase agyapadeɛ bɛyɛɛ nsasetea edu a Gilead ne Basan a ɛdeda Asubɔnten Yordan agya no ka ho,
Isabelo sikaManase sasigoqela iziqinti ezilitshumi zomhlabathi emhlubulweni weGiliyadi leBhashani empumalanga yeJodani,
6 ɛfiri sɛ, Manase asefoɔ a wɔyɛ mmaa no ne wɔn a wɔyɛ mmarima nyaa agyapadeɛ. (Wɔde Gilead asase no maa Manase asefoɔ a wɔyɛ mmarima nkaeɛ no).
ngenxa yokuthi amadodakazi esizwana sikaManase athola ilifa kanye labafowabo. IGiliyadi yayingeyezizukulwana zikaManase.
7 Manase abusuakuo no ɛhyeɛ no firi Aser ɛhyeɛ ano kɔsi Mikmetat, a ɛwɔ Sekem apueeɛ fam. Afei, ɛhyeɛ no firi Mikmetat kɔ anafoɔ fam, kɔsi nnipa a wɔte bɛn Tapua asuo no ho no.
Ilizwe likaManase lalisukela e-Asheri lisiya eMikhimethathi empumalanga kweShekhemu. Umngcele wawudabula usiya usiyagoqela abantu ababehlala e-Eni-Thaphuwa.
8 (Asase a atwa Tapua ho ahyia no yɛ Manase dea, nanso, Tapua kuro no a ɛda Manase mantam no ɛhyeɛ so no yɛ Efraim abusuakuo no dea.)
(UManase wayelomhlaba elizweni leThaphuwa, kodwa iThaphuwa ngokwayo, emngceleni kaManase, yayingeyama-Efrayimi.)
9 Manase ɛhyeɛ no firi Tapua asuo no, nenam Kana suka atifi kɔsi Ɛpo Kɛseɛ no. (Nkuro bebree a ɛwɔ Manase mantam mu no yɛ Efraim abusuakuo no dea.)
Umngcele waqhubeka eningizimu usiya oDongeni lweKhana. Kwakulamadolobho ka-Efrayimi ayakhelwe phakathi kwamadolobho kaManase, kodwa umngcele kaManase wawulicele langenyakatho lodonga njalo uphelela olwandle.
10 Asase a ɛda suka no anafoɔ fam no yɛ Efraim dea, na deɛ ɛda atifi fam nso wɔ Manase, na Ɛpo kɛseɛ no yɛ Manase asase no ɛhyeɛ wɔ atɔeɛ fam. Aser asase no da Manase deɛ no atifi fam, na Isakar asase no nso da apueeɛ fam.
Eningizimu ilizwe lalingelika-Efrayimi, enyakatho lingelikaManase. Ilizwe likaManase lalifika olwandle njalo lingcelezelane lo-Asheri enyakatho kanye lo-Isakhari empumalanga.
11 Wɔde saa nkuro a ɛwɔ Isakar ne Aser mantam mu no maa Manase: Bet-Sean, Yibleam, Dor (a ɛyɛ Nafɔt Dor), En-Dor, Taanak ne Megido ne wɔn nkuraaseɛ.
Phakathi kuka-Isakhari lo-Asheri uManase wayeloBhethi-Shani, u-Ibhiliyami labantu beDori, abe-Endo, abeThanakhi leMegido, ndawonye lemizana ababakhelane layo (owesithathu eluhlwini kwakunguNafothi).
12 Nanso, Manase asefoɔ no antumi amfa saa nkuro yi. Wɔantumi antu Kanaanfoɔ a na wɔte hɔ no.
Kodwa-ke abakoManase kabenelisanga ukuthatha amadolobho la ngoba amaKhenani ayezimisele ukuhlala kuleyondawo.
13 Akyire yi, ɛberɛ a Israelfoɔ nyaa ahoɔden no, wɔhyɛɛ Kanaanfoɔ no ma wɔyɛɛ adwuma sɛ nkoa. Nanso, wɔampamo wɔn amfiri asase no so.
Lanxa kunjalo, kwathi abako-Israyeli sebelamandla amakhulu, benza amaKhenani izigqili zabo kodwa kababaxotshanga kokuphela.
14 Yosef asefoɔ baa Yosua nkyɛn bɛbisaa no sɛ, “Adɛn enti na woama yɛn asaseta baako pɛ wɔ ɛberɛ a Awurade ama yɛn ase adɔre?”
Abantu bakoJosefa bathi kuJoshuwa, “Kungani lisinike isabelo esisodwa kuphela lengxenye eyodwa yelifa na? Singabantu abanengi kakhulu njalo uThixo usibusise kakhulu.”
15 Yosua buaa sɛ, “Sɛ Efraim bepɔ asase no sua ma mo dea, monkɔdɔ kwaeɛ a Perisifoɔ ne Refaimfoɔ te so no.”
UJoshuwa wabaphendula wathi; “Nxa libanengi kakhulu, njalo nxa ilizwe lamaqaqa elako-Efrayimi lilincinyane kini, ngenani eguswini liyecenta umhlaba ube ngowenu elizweni lamaPherizi lelamaRefayi.”
16 Na wɔbuaa sɛ, “Bepɔ so asase no sua ma yɛn, na Kanaanfoɔ a wɔwɔ bepɔ no ase nsase a atwa Bet-Sean ne Yesreel bɔnhwa ho ahyia no wɔ nnadeɛ nteaseɛnam na wɔn ho yɛ den dodo ma yɛn.”
Abantu bakoJosefa baphendula bathi, “Ilizwe lamaqaqa kaliseneli njalo amaKhenani wonke ahlala emagcekeni alezinqola zensimbi, bonke abaseBhethi-Shani lemizana yakhona lalabo ababehlala esigodini seJezerili.”
17 Na Yosua ka kyerɛɛ Efraim ne Manase mmusuakuo a wɔyɛ Yosef asefoɔ no sɛ, “Esiane sɛ mo dɔɔso na mo ho yɛ den enti, mobɛnya nsasetam no bi aka baako no ho.
Kodwa uJoshuwa wakhuluma labendlu kaJosefa, ku-Efrayimi loManase wathi, “Libanengi njalo lilamandla amakhulu kakhulu. Kalisoze libe lesabelo esisodwa kuphela,
18 Wɔde kwaeɛ a ɛda bepɔ no so no bɛka mo ho. Monnɔ asase no sɛdeɛ mobɛtumi biara na montena hɔ. Ɛwom sɛ Kanaanfoɔ no ho yɛ den na wɔwɔ nnadeɛ nteaseɛnam, nanso mewɔ awerɛhyɛmu sɛ mobɛtumi apamo wɔn afiri bɔnhwa no mu.”
kodwa lelizwe lamaqaqa aliligusu. Licenteni lize liyefika lapho eliphelela khona kube ngelenu; lanxa amaKhenani elezinqola zensimbi njalo lanxa elamandla, lingawaxotsha.”
