Batur Ⱨakimlar 3
1 Tɵwǝndikilǝr Pǝrwǝrdigar Ⱪanaaniylar bilǝn bolƣan jǝngni bexidin ɵtküzmigǝn Israilning [ǝwladlirini] sinax üqün ⱪaldurup ⱪoyƣan taipilǝr
Nanzi izizwe ezatshiywa nguThixo ukuze abahlole bonke abako-Israyeli ababengazibonanga izimpi eKhenani
2 (U Israillarning ǝwladlirini, bolupmu jǝng-uruxlarni kɵrüp baⱪmiƣanlarni pǝⱪǝt jǝngni ɵgünsun dǝp ⱪaldurƣanidi): —
(wenza lokhu ukuba azifundise izizukulwane zako-Israyeli ukulwiwa kwezimpi lezo ezazingazange zikubone ukulwa ngaphambilini):
3 — ular Filistiylǝrning bǝx ǝmirliki, barliⱪ Ⱪanaaniylar, Zidonluⱪlar wǝ Baal-Ⱨǝrmon teƣidin tartip Hamat eƣiziƣiqǝ Liwan taƣliⱪida turuwatⱪan Ⱨiwiylar idi;
ababusi abahlanu bamaFilistiya, amaKhenani wonke, amaSidoni, lamaHivi ahlala ezintabeni zaseLebhanoni kusukela eNtabeni iBhali-Hemoni kusiya eLebho Hamathi.
4 Ularni ⱪaldurup ⱪoyuxtiki mǝⱪsiti Israilni sinax, yǝni ularning Pǝrwǝrdigarning Musaning wasitisi bilǝn ata-bowiliriƣa buyruƣan ǝmrlirini tutidiƣan-tutmaydiƣanliⱪini bilix üqün idi.
Babetshiyelwe ukuhlola abako-Israyeli ukuba kubonakale ukuthi bayayilalela na imilayo kaThixo, ayeyinike okhokho babo ngoMosi.
5 Xuning bilǝn Israillar Ⱪanaaniylar, yǝni Ⱨittiylar, Amoriylar, Pǝrizziylǝr, Ⱨiwiylar wǝ Yǝbusiylar arisida turdi;
Abako-Israyeli babehlala phakathi kwamaKhenani, lamaHithi, lama-Amori, lamaPherizi, lamaHivi kanye lamaJebusi.
6 Israillar ularning ⱪizliriƣa ɵylinip, ɵz ⱪizlirini ularning oƣulliriƣa berip, ularning ilaⱨlirining ⱪulluⱪiƣa kirdi.
Bathatha amadodakazi awo aba ngomkabo njalo bendisela amadodakazi abo emadodaneni awo, bakhonza labonkulunkulu bawo.
7 Israillar Pǝrwǝrdigarning nǝziridǝ rǝzil bolƣanni ⱪilip, ɵz Hudasi Pǝrwǝrdigarni untup, Baallar wǝ Axǝraⱨlarning ⱪulluⱪiƣa kirdi.
Abako-Israyeli benza okubi emehlweni kaThixo; bamkhohlwa uThixo uNkulunkulu wabo bakhonza oBhali labo-Ashera.
8 Xuning bilǝn Pǝrwǝrdigarning ƣǝzipi Israilƣa tutixip, ularni Aram-Naⱨaraimning padixaⱨi Ⱪuxan-Rixataimning ⱪoliƣa tapxurdi. Bu tǝriⱪidǝ Israillar sǝkkiz yilƣiqǝ Ⱪuxan-Rixataimƣa beⱪindi boldi.
Ulaka lukaThixo lwavuthela abako-Israyeli waze wabanikela ezandleni zikaKhushani-Rishathayimi inkosi yase-Aramu Naharayimu, lapho abantu bako-Israyeli ababangaphansi kombuso wayo iminyaka eyisificaminwembili.
9 Israillar Pǝrwǝrdigarƣa pǝryad kɵtürgǝndǝ, Pǝrwǝrdigar ular üqün bir ⱪutⱪuzƣuqini turƣuzup, u ularni ⱪutⱪuzdi. U kixi Kalǝbning inisi Kenazning oƣli Otniyǝl idi.
Kodwa ekukhaleni kwabo kuThixo, wabalethela umhlengi, u-Othiniyeli indodana kaKhenazi, umnawakhe kaKhalebi, owabakhululayo.
10 Pǝrwǝrdigarning Roⱨi uning üstigǝ qüxüp, u Israilƣa ⱨakimliⱪ ⱪildi; u jǝnggǝ qiⱪiwidi, Pǝrwǝrdigar Aramning padixaⱨi Ⱪuxan-Rixataimni uning ⱪoliƣa tapxurdi; buning bilǝn u Ⱪuxan-Rixataimning üstidin ƣalib kǝldi.
Umoya kaThixo wehlela kuye, wasesiba ngumahluleli wako-Israyeli waya empini. UThixo wanikela uKhushani-Rishathayimi inkosi ye-Aramu ezandleni zika-Othiniyeli, wamnqoba.
11 Xuningdin keyin zeminda ⱪiriⱪ yilƣiqǝ amanliⱪ boldi; Kenazning oƣli Otniyǝl alǝmdin ɵtti.
Ngakho ilizwe laba lokuthula iminyaka engamatshumi amane, u-Othiniyeli indodana kaKhenazi waze wafa.
12 Andin Israillar yǝnǝ Pǝrwǝrdigarning nǝziridǝ rǝzil bolƣanni ⱪildi; ular Pǝrwǝrdigarning nǝziridǝ rǝzil bolƣanni ⱪilƣaqⱪa, u Moabning padixaⱨi Əglonni Israil bilǝn ⱪarixilixixⱪa küqlǝndürdi.
Abako-Israyeli baphinda benza okubi emehlweni kaThixo, kwathi ngenxa yokuthi babenze lobububi uThixo wanika u-Egiloni inkosi yaseMowabi amandla phezu kuka-Israyeli.
13 U Ammoniylar wǝ Amalǝkiylǝrni ɵzigǝ tartip, jǝnggǝ qiⱪip Israilni urup ⱪirip, «Ⱨormiliⱪ Xǝⱨǝr»ni ixƣal ⱪildi.
Esenze ama-Amoni lama-Amaleki amanyana laye, u-Egiloni wayahlasela u-Israyeli, basebethumba idolobho laMalala.
14 Buning bilǝn Israillar on sǝkkiz yilƣiqǝ Moabning padixaⱨi Əglonƣa beⱪindi boldi.
Abako-Israyeli babangaphansi kombuso ka-Egiloni inkosi yaseMowabi iminyaka elitshumi layisificaminwembili.
15 Xuning bilǝn Israillar Pǝrwǝrdigarƣa pǝryad kɵtürdi; Pǝrwǝrdigar ular üqün bir ⱪutⱪuzƣuqi, yǝni Binyamin ⱪǝbilisidin bolƣan Gǝraning oƣli Əⱨudni turƣuzdi; u solhay idi. Israil uning ⱪoli bilǝn Moabning padixaⱨi Əglonƣa sowƣat ǝwǝtti.
Abako-Israyeli bakhala futhi kuThixo, wasebapha umhlengi u-Ehudi, indoda eyayilinxele indodana kaGera owakoBhenjamini. Abako-Israyeli bamthuma lesipho ku-Egiloni inkosi yaseMowabi.
16 Əmdi Əⱨud ɵzigǝ bir gǝz uzunluⱪta ikki bisliⱪ bir xǝmxǝr yasatⱪanidi; uni kiyimining iqigǝ, ong yotisining üstigǝ ⱪisturuwaldi;
U-Ehudi wayenze inkemba esika inxa zombili eyayingaba yingalo lengxenye ubude bayo, ayibophela ethangazini lakhe lwesokudla ngaphansi kwezigqoko zakhe.
17 U xu ⱨalǝttǝ sowƣatni Moabning padixaⱨi Əglonning aldiƣa elip kǝldi. Əglon tolimu semiz bir adǝm idi.
Wasethula isipho ku-Egiloni inkosi yaseMowabi, owayengumuntu oqatha kakhulu.
18 Əⱨud sowƣatni tǝⱪdim ⱪilip bolƣandin keyin, sowƣatni kɵtürüp kǝlgǝn kixilǝrni kǝtküzüwǝtti;
Emva kokuba u-Ehudi esesethule isipho, walaya abantu ababesithwele ukuba bazihambele.
19 andin ɵzi Gilgalning yenidiki tax oymilar bar jaydin yenip, padixaⱨning ⱪexiƣa kelip: — Əy padixaⱨ, mǝndǝ ɵzlirigǝ dǝydiƣan bir mǝhpiyǝtlik bar idi, — dewidi, padixaⱨ: — Jim tur! — dedi. Xuning bilǝn ǝtrapidiki hizmǝtkarlarning ⱨǝmmisi sirtⱪa qiⱪip kǝtti.
Ezithombeni eduze leGiligali yena uqobo wabuyela emuva, wathi, “Oh nkosi, ngilelizwi lakho eliyimfihlo.” Inkosi yathi, “Thula!” Zonke izikhonzi zayo zasuka kuyo.
20 Andin Əⱨud padixaⱨning aldiƣa kǝldi; padixaⱨ yalƣuz salⱪin balihanida olturatti. Əⱨud: — Mǝndǝ sili üqün Hudadin kǝlgǝn bir sɵz bar, dewidi, padixaⱨ orunduⱪtin ⱪopup ɵrǝ turdi.
U-Ehudi wayilanda isihlezi yodwa ekamelweni langaphezulu elipholileyo endlini yayo yobukhosi wathi, “Ngilelizwi lakho elivela kuNkulunkulu.” Kwathi inkosi isukuma esihlalweni sayo,
21 Xuning bilǝn Əⱨud sol ⱪolini uzitip ong yotisidin xǝmxǝrni suƣurup elip, uning ⱪorsiⱪiƣa tiⱪti.
u-Ehudi wafinyelela ngesandla sakhe senxele, wahwatsha inkemba ethangazini lakhe kwesokudla wayithela esiswini senkosi.
22 Xundaⱪ ⱪilip xǝmxǝrning dǝstisimu tiƣi bilǝn ⱪoxulup kirip kǝtti, semiz eti xǝmxǝrni ⱪisiwalƣaqⱪa, Əⱨud xǝmxǝrni ⱪorsiⱪidin tartip qiⱪiriwalmidi; üqǝy-poⱪi arⱪidin qiⱪti.
Inkemba yatshona yasala ngesilanda, amathumbu akhe agcwala phansi. U-Ehudi kayingcothulanga inkemba, idanga layemboza.
23 Andin Əⱨud dalanƣa qiⱪip, balihanining ixiklirini iqidin etip ⱪuluplap ⱪoydi.
U-Ehudi waphuma phandle, wavala iminyango yekamelo langaphezulu wayihluthulela.
24 U qiⱪip kǝtkǝndǝ, padixaⱨning hizmǝtqiliri kelip ⱪarisa, balihanining ixikliri ⱪuluplaⱪliⱪ idi. Ular: — Padixaⱨ salⱪin ɵydǝ qong tǝrǝtkǝ olturƣan bolsa kerǝk, dǝp oylidi.
Esehambile kweza izinceku zathola iminyango yekamelo langaphezulu ihluthulelwe. Zathi, “Kutsho ukuthi iye ngaphandle ekamelweni elingaphakathi kwendlu.”
25 Ular uzun saⱪlap kirmisǝk sǝt bolarmu dǝp oylaxti; u yǝnila balihanining ixiklirini aqmiƣandin keyin, aqⱪuqni elip ixiklǝrni eqiwidi, mana, hojisining yǝrdǝ ɵlük yatⱪinini kɵrdi.
Zalinda zaze zakhathazeka, kodwa ngoba ingasavulanga iminyango yekamelo lelo, zathatha ikhiye zayivula. Lapho-ke zabona inkosi yazo iwele phansi, isifile.
26 Əmdi ular ikkilinip ⱪarap turƣan waⱪtida, Əⱨud ⱪeqip qiⱪⱪanidi; u tax oymilar bar jaydin ɵtüp, Seiraⱨⱪa ⱪeqip kǝlgǝnidi.
Zisalindile, u-Ehudi wasuka wahamba. Wedlula eduzane lezithombe wabalekela eSeyira.
27 Xu yǝrgǝ yǝtkǝndǝ, u Əfraim taƣliⱪ rayonida kanay qeliwidi, Israillar uning bilǝn birgǝ taƣliⱪ rayondin qüxti, u aldida yol baxlap mangdi.
Esefike lapho wakhalisa icilongo elizweni lezintaba lako-Efrayimi, abako-Israyeli basebesehla laye ezintabeni, yena ebakhokhele.
28 U ularƣa: — Manga ǝgixip yürünglar, qünki Pǝrwǝrdigar düxmininglar Moabiylarni ⱪolunglarƣa tapxurdi, — dewidi, ular uningƣa ǝgixip qüxüp, Iordan dǝryasining keqiklirini tosup, ⱨeqkimni ɵtküzmidi.
Wabalaya wathi, “Ngilandelani, ngoba uThixo usenikele uMowabi, isitha senu, ezandleni zenu.” Ngakho behlela laye phansi bemlandela, kwathi sebethumbe amazibuko eJodani ayewelela eMowabi, kabaze bavumela muntu ukuba achaphele ngaphetsheya.
29 U waⱪitta ular Moabiylardin on mingqǝ ǝskǝrni ɵltürdi; bularning ⱨǝmmisi tǝmbǝl palwanlar idi; ulardin ⱨeqbir adǝm ⱪeqip ⱪutulalmidi.
Ngalesosikhathi babulala amaMowabi ayengaba zinkulungwane ezilitshumi, wonke ayeqinile elamandla; akukho muntu owaphunyukayo.
30 Xu küni Moab Israilning ⱪolida besiⱪturuldi. Zemin sǝksǝn yilƣiqǝ aman-tinqliⱪta turdi.
Ngalolosuku iMowabi yanqotshwa yi-Israyeli, ilizwe laselisiba lokuthula iminyaka engamatshumi ayisificaminwembili.
31 Əⱨuddin keyin Anatning oƣli Xamgar ⱨakim boldi; u altǝ yüz Filistiyǝlikni biraⱪla kala sanjiƣuq bilǝn ɵltürdi; umu Israilni ⱪutⱪuzdi.
Emva kuka-Ehudi kwaba loShamigari indodana ka-Anathi owabulala amaFilistiya angamakhulu ayisithupha ngesijujo senkabi. Laye wamkhulula u-Israyeli.
