vatongi vashanu vavaFiristia, vaKenani vose, vaSidhoni, uye vaHivhi vaigara mumakomo eRebhanoni kubva paGomo reBhaari Herimoni kusvikira kuRebho Hamati.
4 Wɔgyaa saa nkurɔfoɔ yi de sɔɔ Israelfoɔ no hwɛeɛ, pɛɛ sɛ wɔhunu sɛ wɔbɛdi mmara a Awurade nam Mose so hyɛ maa wɔn agyanom no so anaa.
Vakasiyiwa kuti vaedze vaIsraeri kuti aone kana vaizoteerera mirayiro yaJehovha, yaakanga apa madzitateguru avo kubudikidza naMozisi.
5 Enti, Israelfoɔ no tenaa Kanaanfoɔ, Hetifoɔ, Amorifoɔ, Perisifoɔ, Hewifoɔ ne Yebusifoɔ no mu.
VaIsraeri vakagara pakati pavaKenani, vaHiti, vaAmori, vaPerezi, vaHivhi navaJebhusi.
6 Na wɔdii wɔn ho awadeɛ. Israelfoɔ mmammarima no warewaree wɔn mmammaa ɛnna wɔde Israelfoɔ mmammaa nso maa wɔn mmammarima awadeɛ. Na Israelfoɔ no somm wɔn anyame.
Vakatora vanasikana vavo kuti vave vakadzi vavo uye vakapa vanasikana vavowo kuvanakomana vavo, uye vakashumira vamwari vavo.
7 Israelfoɔ no yɛɛ deɛ ɛyɛ Awurade ani so bɔne. Wɔn werɛ firii Awurade wɔn Onyankopɔn, na wɔsomm Baalim ahoni ne Asera afɔrebukyia.
VaIsraeri vakaita zvakaipa pamberi paJehovha; vakakanganwa Jehovha Mwari wavo vakashumira vaBhaari navaAshera.
8 Awurade abufuo mu yɛɛ den tiaa Israel enti, ɔde wɔn hyɛɛ Aramhene Kusan-Risataim nsam. Na Israelfoɔ yɛɛ Kusan-Risataim nkoa mfirinhyia nwɔtwe.
Kutsamwa kwaJehovha kwakapisa pamusoro paIsraeri zvokuti akavatengesa mumaoko aKushani-Rishataimi mambo weAramu Naharaimu, avo vakashandirwa navaIsraeri kwamakore masere.
9 Nanso, Israelfoɔ su frɛɛ Awurade no, ɔyii ɔbarima bi sɛ ɔgyefoɔ maa wɔn. Ne din ne Otniel a ɔyɛ Kaleb nua kumaa Kenas babarima.
Asi vakati vachema kuna Jehovha, akavamutsira musununguri, Otinieri mwanakomana waKenazi, mununʼuna waKarebhu, uyo akavaponesa.
10 Awurade honhom baa ne so, enti ɔbɛyɛɛ Israel ɔtemmufoɔ. Ɔko tiaa Aramhene Kusan-Risataim na Awurade maa Otniel dii ne so nkonim.
Mweya waJehovha wakauya pamusoro pake kuti ave mutongi weIsraeri uye akaenda kuhondo. Jehovha akaisa Kushani-Rishataimi mambo wavaAramu mumaoko aOtinieri, akamukunda.
11 Enti, asomdwoeɛ baa asase no so mfirinhyia aduanan. Na Kenas babarima Otniel wuiɛ.
Saka nyika yakava norugare kwamakore makumi mana, kusvikira Otinieri mwanakomana waKenazi afa.
12 Bio, Israelfoɔ no yɛɛ deɛ ɛyɛ Awurade ani so bɔne, na ɛno enti, Awurade de tumi hyɛɛ Moabhene Eglon nsa ma ɔdii Israel so.
VaIsraeri vakaitazve zvakaipa pamberi paJehovha, uye nokuda kwokuti vakaita zvakaipa izvi, Jehovha akapa simba kuna Egironi mambo weMoabhu kuti akunde Israeri.
13 Eglon boaboaa Amonfoɔ ne Amalekfoɔ ano ma wɔbɛkaa ne ho na wɔkɔto hyɛɛ Israelfoɔ so. Wɔdii wɔn so, faa kuropɔn Yeriko.
Egironi akatora vaAmoni navaAmareki kuti vaende naye kundorwisa Israeri, uye vakatora Guta reMichindwe kuti rive ravo.
14 Israelfoɔ no somm Moabhene Eglon mfirinhyia dunwɔtwe.
VaIsraeri vakava varanda vaEgironi mambo weMoabhu kwamakore gumi namasere.
15 Nanso Israelfoɔ no su frɛɛ Awurade bio no, Awurade maa wɔn ɔgyefoɔ. Ne din ne Ehud, Gera babarima a ɔyɛ abenkumma na ɔfiri Benyamin abusuakuo mu. Israelfoɔ no somaa Ehud sɛ ɔmfa wɔn apeatoɔ sika nkɔma Moabhene Eglon.
VaIsraeri vakachemazve kuna Jehovha, iye akavapa musununguri, Ehudhi murume aiva neziboshwe, mwanakomana waGera muBhenjamini. VaIsraeri vakamutuma nomutero kuna Egironi mambo weMoabhu.
16 Enti, Ehud bɔɔ sekan anofanu a ne tenten yɛ nsateakwaa dunwɔtwe. Ɔde hyɛɛ ne srɛ nifa ho de siee nʼatadeɛ mu.
Zvino Ehudhi akanga aita munondo wakarodzwa kumativi ose uchikarosvika kubhiti rimwe chete pakureba kwawo waakanga akasungira pasi penguo dzake pachidya chake chokurudyi.
17 Ɔde apeatoɔ sika no brɛɛ Eglon a wayɛ kɛse twɔfee no.
Akapa mutero kuna Egironi mambo weMoabhu, murume akanga akafuta kwazvo.
18 Ɔde sika no maa no wieeɛ no, Ehud gyaa wɔn a na wɔso sika no kwan ma wɔkɔɔ fie.
Mushure mokunge Ehudhi apa mutero, akati vanhu vakanga vauya vakatakura mutero wacho vaende.
19 Nanso, ɛberɛ a Ehud duruu aboɔ ahoni a ɛbɛn Gilgal no, ɔsane nʼakyi baa Eglon nkyɛn bɛka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Mewɔ kokoamsɛm bi meka kyerɛ wo.” Enti ɔhene no maa nʼasomfoɔ no nyinaa yɛɛ dinn na ɔmaa wɔn nyinaa firii ɛdan mu hɔ.
Pazvifananidzo zvaiva pedyo neGirigari iye pachake akadzoka akati, “Ndine shoko renyu rakavanzika, imi mambo.” Mambo akati, “Nyararai!” uye varanda vake vose vakamusiya.
20 Afei, Ehud kɔɔ Eglon nkyɛn. Na ɔte aborɔsan dan bi a emu dwoɔ mu. Ehud ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Mewɔ asɛm bi a ɛfiri Onyankopɔn nkyɛn ka kyerɛ wo!” Ɛberɛ a ɔhene Eglon sɔre firii nʼakonnwa mu ara pɛ,
Ipapo Ehudhi akaswedera kwaari iye agere ari oga muimba yake yapamusoro yomuzinda wake wenguva yezhizha akati, “Ndine shoko renyu rabva kuna Mwari,” Mambo akati achisimuka achibva pachigaro chake,
21 Ehud de ne nsa benkum twee sekan a ɔde ahyɛ ne srɛ nifa ho no de wɔɔ ɔhene no yafunu mu.
Ehudhi akatambanudza ruoko rwake rworuboshwe, akavhomora munondo kubva pachidya chake chokurudyi akaunyudza mudumbu ramambo.
22 Sekan no kɔɔ akyiri kɔsii sɛ nʼabona no mpo wuraa ɔhene no sradeɛ mu maa ɛso kataeɛ. Enti, Ehud gyaa sekan no wɔ yafunu no mu maa ne nsono tu guiɛ.
Kunyange chibato chomunondo chakanyura chichitevera chese, ukandobuda nokumusana kwake. Ehudhi haana kuvhomora munondo, uye mafuta akaputira pamusoro pawo.
23 Afei, Ehud totoo apono no mu foroo agyanan dan no, faa ne nsuseneeɛ no mu dwane kɔeɛ.
Ipapo Ehudhi akabuda akaenda kubiravira; akapfiga mikova yeimba yapamusoro shure kwake akaikiya.
24 Ehud kɔeɛ akyi no, ɔhene asomfoɔ no baa hɔ bɛhunuu sɛ, apono a ɛkɔ aborɔsan no so no, wɔatoto mu. Na wɔdwene sɛ ɔwɔ agyananbea hɔ,
Mushure mokuenda kwake, varanda vakasvika vakawana mikova yeimba yapamusoro yakiyiwa. Ivo vakati, “Anofanira kunge achimbozvizorodza zvake ari mukamuri romukati reimba.”
25 enti, wɔtwɛneeɛ. Wɔtwɛneeɛ ara na ɔhene no mma no, ɛhaa wɔn ma wɔkɔpɛɛ safoa bi. Na wɔbuee ɛpono no, wɔhunuu sɛ wɔn wura awu da fam.
Vakarindira kusvikira vanyadziswa nazvo asi paakarega kuzarura mikova yekamuri, vakatora kiyi vakaikiyinura. Onei ipapo ishe wavo akawira pasi, afa.
26 Ɛberɛ a asomfoɔ no retwɛn no, Ehud dwane faa aboɔ ahoni no so a ɔrekɔ Seira.
Vachakamirira, Ehudhi akaenda. Akapfuura napazvifananidzo akapunyuka akaenda kuSeira.
27 Ɔduruu Efraim bepɔ asase no so no, Ehud hyɛnee totorobɛnto kyerɛɛ ɔman no sɛ wɔmfa akodeɛ mmra. Enti, ɔdii Israelfoɔ kuo bi anim sianee bepɔ no.
Akati asvika ikoko, akaridza hwamanda ari munyika yezvikomo yaEfuremu, uye vaIsraeri vakaburuka naye vachibva kuzvikomo, iye achivatungamirira.
28 Ɔka kyerɛɛ wɔn sɛ, “Monni mʼakyi. Awurade ama moadi Moabfoɔ a wɔyɛ mo atamfoɔ no so nkonim.” Enti, wɔtu dii nʼakyi. Israelfoɔ no faa asubɔnten Yordan baabi a ɛhɔ nnɔ a wɔfiri Moab tware. Ɛno enti na obiara ntumi mfa hɔ ntwa Asubɔnten no.
Akati kwavari, “Nditeverei, nokuti Jehovha aisa Moabhu muvengi wenyu, mumaoko enyu.” Saka vakaburuka vakamutevera, uye vakatora mazambuko eJorodhani okuenda kuMoabhu, vakasatendera munhu kuyambuka.
29 Wɔto hyɛɛ Moabfoɔ no so. Wɔkunkumm wɔn nnɔmmarima no bɛyɛ ɔpedu. Wɔn mu biara antumi annwane.
Panguva iyoyo vakauraya zviuru zvinenge gumi zvavaMoabhu, vose vakanga vakagwinya uye vane simba; hapana akapunyuka.
30 Enti, Israelfoɔ dii Moabfoɔ so nkonim saa ɛda no, na asomdwoeɛ baa asase no so mfirinhyia aduɔwɔtwe.
Zuva iroro Moabhu yakava pasi peIsraeri, uye nyika yakava norugare kwamakore makumi masere.
31 Ehud akyi no, Anat babarima Samgar gyee Israelfoɔ. Ɔde nantwika abaa kumm Filistifoɔ aha nsia.
Shure kwaEhudhi kwakauya Shamuga mwanakomana waAnati, uyo akauraya vaFiristia mazana matanhatu norutanda rwokubaya narwo mombe. Naiyewo akaponesa Israeri.
