Batur Ⱨakimlar 8
1 (Keyin, Əfraimlar uningƣa: — Sǝn nemixⱪa bizgǝ xundaⱪ muamilǝ ⱪilisǝn, Midiyaniylar bilǝn soⱪuxⱪa qiⱪⱪanda, bizni qaⱪirmidingƣu, dǝp uning bilǝn ⱪattiⱪ deyixip kǝtti.
Abako-Efrayimi babuza uGidiyoni bathi, “Kungani usiphathe kanje na? Kungani ungasibizanga lapho ususiyakulwa lamaMidiyani?” Bamsola kakhulu.
2 U ularƣa jawabǝn: — Mening ⱪilƣanlirimni ⱪandaⱪmu silǝrning ⱪilƣininglarƣa tǝnglǝxtürgili bolsun? Əfraimning üzümlǝrni pasangdiƣini, Abieǝzǝrlǝrning üzüm üzginidin artuⱪ ǝmǝsmu?
Kodwa yena wabaphendula wathi, “Kuyini mina engikufezileyo okulingana lokwenu na? Amagrebisi ako-Efrayimi aseleyo ekuvuneni kawangcono kulamagrebisi esivuno esipheleleyo sako-Abhiyezeri na?
3 Huda Midiyanning ǝmirliri Orǝb bilǝn Zǝǝbni ⱪolunglarƣa tapxurƣan yǝrdǝ, mening ⱪolumdin kǝlginini ⱪandaⱪmu silǝrning ⱪilƣininglarƣa tǝnglǝxtürgili bolsun? — dedi. Xundaⱪ dewidi, ularning uningƣa bolƣan aqqiⱪi yandi).
UNkulunkulu unikele u-Orebhi loZebhi, abakhokheli bamaMidiyani, ezandleni zenu. Kuyini lokho engikwenzileyo lapho ngiqathaniswa lani?” Ngalokhu ukuthukuthela kwabo kwadeda.
4 Əmdi Gideon Iordan dǝryasining boyiƣa yetip kǝldi. U wǝ ɵzigǝ ⱨǝmraⱨ bolƣan üq yüz adǝm ⱨerip kǝtkǝn bolsimu, ular yǝnila Midiyaniylarni ⱪoƣlap dǝryadin ɵtti.
UGidiyoni labantu bakhe abangamakhulu amathathu sebediniwe kodwa belokhu bexotshana lawo, bafika eJodani bayichapha.
5 Gideon Sukkot xǝⱨiridikilǝrgǝ: — Manga ⱨǝmraⱨ bolup kǝlgǝn kixilǝrgǝ nan bǝrsǝnglar, qünki ular ⱨerip-qarqap kǝtti. Biz Midiyanning ikki padixaⱨi Zǝbaⱨ wǝ Zalmunnani ⱪoƣlap ketip barimiz, — dedi.
Wasesithi ebantwini baseSukhothi, “Phanini amabutho ami izinkwa; akhathele, njalo ngisaxotshana loZebha kanye loZalimuna, amakhosi aseMidiyani.”
6 Lekin Sukkotning qongliri jawab berip: — Zǝbaⱨ wǝ Zalmunna ⱨazir sening ⱪolungƣa qüxtimu?! Biz sening muxu lǝxkǝrliringgǝ nan berǝmduⱪ?! — dedi.
Kodwa izikhulu zaseSukhothi zathi, “Usulazo mathupha yini izandla zikaZebha loZalimuna? Kungani amabutho akho kumele siwanike izinkwa?”
7 Gideon: — Hǝp! Xundaⱪ bolƣini üqün Pǝrwǝrdigar Zǝbaⱨ wǝ Zalmunnani mening ⱪolumƣa tapxurƣanda, ǝtliringlarni qɵldiki yantaⱪ wǝ xoha bilǝn hamanda tepimǝn, — dedi.
UGidiyoni waphendula wathi, “Ngenxa yalokho, lapho uThixo esenikele uZebha loZalimuna esandleni sami, ngizaklaya imizimba yenu ngameva asenkangala.”
8 Gideon u yǝrdin Pǝnuǝlgǝ berip, u yǝrdiki adǝmlǝrgimu xundaⱪ dewidi, Pǝnuǝldiki kixilǝrmu uningƣa Sukkottikilǝrdǝk jawab bǝrdi.
Esuka lapho waya ePheniweli, wenza isicelo esifanayo kubo, kodwa baphendula njengabantu beSukhothi.
9 U Pǝnuǝldikilǝrgǝ: — Mǝn ƣǝlibǝ bilǝn yenip kǝlginimdǝ, bu munaringlarni ɵrüwetimǝn, — dedi.
Ngakho wathi ebantwini basePheniweli, “Ekuphendukeni kwami senginqobile, ngizawudiliza umphotshongo lo.”
10 U qaƣda Zǝbaⱨ wǝ Zalmunna Karkor degǝn jayda idi; ular bilǝn mangƣan ⱪoxunda on bǝx mingqǝ lǝxkǝr bar idi. Bular bolsa mǝxriⱪliⱪlǝrning pütkül ⱪoxunidin ⱪelip ⱪalƣanliri idi, qünki ulardin ⱪiliq tutⱪanliridin bir yüz yigirmǝ mingi ɵltürülgǝnidi.
Ngalesosikhathi uZebha loZalimuna babeseKhakhori lebutho labantu ababephosa babe zinkulungwane ezilitshumi lanhlanu, ababesele emabuthweni asempumalanga; izinkulungwane ezilikhulu lamatshumi amabili zababesilwa ngenkemba zasezifile.
11 Gideon bolsa Nobaⱨ wǝ Yogbihaⱨning xǝrⱪidiki kɵqmǝnlǝr yoli bilǝn qiⱪip Midiyanning lǝxkǝrgaⱨiƣa ⱨujum ⱪilip, ularni tarmar ⱪildi; qünki lǝxkǝrgaⱨtikilǝr tolimu ǝndixsiz turƣanidi.
UGidiyoni wahamba ngendlela yamasili empumalanga kweNobha leJogibheha wahlasela ibutho elalilibele.
12 Zǝbaⱨ wǝ Zalmunna ⱪeqip kǝtti; Gideon kǝynidin ⱪoƣlap berip, Midiyanning bu ikki padixaⱨi Zǝbaⱨ wǝ Zalmunnani tutuwaldi; u pütkül lǝxkǝrgaⱨtikilǝrni alaⱪzadǝ ⱪilip tiripirǝn ⱪiliwǝtti.
UZebha loZalimuna, amakhosi womabili aseMidiyani, babaleka, kodwa waxotshana labo wababamba, wawachitha wonke amabutho abo.
13 Andin Yoaxning oƣli Gideon Ⱨǝrǝs dawinidin ɵtüp, jǝngdin ⱪaytip kǝldi.
Emva kwalokho uGidiyoni indodana kaJowashi wabuyela evela empini ngoKhalo lwaseHeresi.
14 U Sukkotluⱪ bir yax yigitni tutuwelip, uningdin sürüxtǝ ⱪiliwidi, yigit uningƣa Sukkotning qongliri wǝ aⱪsaⱪallirining isimlirini yezip bǝrdi. Ular jǝmiy bolup yǝtmix yǝttǝ adǝm idi.
Wabamba ijaha laseSukhothi walibuzabuza, ijaha lelo lamlobela amabizo eziphathamandla zaseSukhothi ezingamatshumi ayisikhombisa, abadala bomuzi.
15 Andin Gideon Sukkotning adǝmlirining ⱪexiƣa yetip barƣanda: — Silǝr meni zangliⱪ ⱪilip: «Zǝbaⱨ wǝ Zalmunna ⱨazir sening ⱪolungƣa qüxtimu? Biz sening bilǝn billǝ mangƣan muxu ⱨarƣin adǝmliringgǝ nan berǝmduⱪ?» degǝnidinglar! Mana, u Zǝbaⱨ wǝ Zalmunna degǝnlǝr! — dedi.
UGidiyoni wafika wathi ebantwini baseSukhothi, “Nangu uZebha loZalimuna elalingichothoza ngabo lisithi, ‘Usulazo yini izandla zikaZebha loZalimuna? Kungani amabutho akho akhatheleyo kumele siwanike izinkwa na?’”
16 Xuni dǝp u xǝⱨǝrning aⱪsaⱪallirini tutup kelip, qɵldiki yantaⱪ bilǝn xohilarni elip kelip, ular bilǝn Sukkotning adǝmlirini urup ǝdipini bǝrdi.
Wathatha abadala bomuzi wasefundisa amadoda aseSukhothi isifundo ngokubajezisa ngameva asenkangala.
17 Andin u Pǝnuǝlning munarini ɵrüp, xǝⱨǝrdiki adǝmlǝrni ɵltürdi.
Wadiliza lomphotshongo wasePheniweli wabulala amadoda akulowomuzi.
18 Gideon Zǝbaⱨ wǝ Zalmunnani soraⱪ ⱪilip: — Silǝr ikkinglar Taborda ɵltürgǝn adǝmlǝr ⱪandaⱪ adǝmlǝr idi? — dǝp soriwidi, ular jawab berip: — Ular sanga intayin ohxaytti; ularning ⱨǝrbiri xaⱨzadidǝk idi, — dedi.
Wabuza uZebha loZalimuna wathi, “Ngabantu abanjani labo elababulalayo eThabhori?” Baphendula bathi, “Ngabantu abanjengawe, lowo lalowo efana lenkosana.”
19 U buni anglap: — Ular mening bir tuƣⱪanlirimdur, biz bir anining oƣullirimiz. Pǝrwǝrdigarning ⱨayati bilǝn ⱪǝsǝm ⱪilimǝnki, silǝr ǝyni waⱪitta ularni tirik ⱪoyƣan bolsanglar, mǝn silǝrni ⱨǝrgiz ɵltürmǝyttim, — dedi;
UGidiyoni waphendula wathi, “Labobantu babengabafowethu, amadodana kamama. Ngeqiniso njengoba uThixo ephila, aluba labayekela bephila, kade bengingeyikulibulala.”
20 xuning bilǝn u qong oƣli Yǝtǝrgǝ: — Sǝn ⱪopup bularni ɵltürgin, — dedi. Lekin oƣul kiqik bolƣaqⱪa ⱪorⱪup, ⱪiliqini suƣurmidi.
Wasephendukela kuJetha, indodana yakhe endala, wathi, “Babulale!” Kodwa uJetha kayihwatshanga inkemba yakhe, ngoba wayengumfanyana esesaba.
21 Xuning bilǝn Zǝbaⱨ wǝ Zalmunna: — Sǝn ɵzüng ⱪopup bizni ɵltürgin; qünki adǝm ⱪandaⱪ bolsa küqimu xundaⱪ bolidu, — dedi. Xundaⱪ dewidi, Gideon ⱪopup Zǝbaⱨ wǝ Zalmunnani ɵltürdi. U tɵgilirining boynidiki ⱨilal ay xǝkillik bezǝklǝrni eliwaldi.
UZebha loZalimuna bathi, “Woza, usibulale wena ngokwakho. ‘Njengoba indoda injalo, anjalo lamandla ayo.’” Ngakho uGidiyoni wasondela phambili wababulala, wasethatha imiceciso entanyeni zamakamela abo.
22 Andin Israillar Gideonƣa: — Sǝn bizni Midiyanning ⱪolidin ⱪutⱪuzƣanikǝnsǝn, ɵzüng bizgǝ padixaⱨ bolƣin; oƣlung wǝ oƣlungning oƣlimu bizning üstimizgǝ ⱨɵküm sürsun, — dedi.
Abako-Israyeli bathi kuGidiyoni, “Sibuse wena, lendodana yakho kanye lendodana yendodana yakho ngoba usisindisile ezandleni zamaMidiyani.”
23 Əmma Gideon ularƣa jawab berip: — Mǝn üstünglǝrgǝ sǝltǝnǝt ⱪilmaymǝn, oƣlummu üstünglǝrgǝ sǝltǝnǝt ⱪilmaydu; bǝlki Pǝrwǝrdigar Ɵzi üstünglǝrgǝ sǝltǝnǝt ⱪilidu, dedi.
Kodwa uGidiyoni wathi kubo, “Mina kangiyikulibusa, lendodana yami kayiyikulibusa. UThixo uzalibusa.”
24 Andin Gideon ularƣa yǝnǝ: — Silǝrgǝ pǝⱪǝt birla iltimasim bar: — Ⱨǝr biringlar ɵz oljanglardin ⱨalⱪa-zerilǝrni manga beringlar, dedi (Midiyanlar Ismaillardin bolƣaqⱪa, ⱨǝrbiri altun zirǝ-ⱨalⱪilarni taⱪaytti).
Wabuya wathi, “Ngilesicelo esisodwa, ukuthi omunye lomunye wenu angiphe icici esabelweni sempango yenu.” (Ukufaka amacici egolide kwakungumkhuba wama-Ishumayeli.)
25 Ular jawabǝn: — Berixkǝ razimiz, dǝp yǝrgǝ bir yepinqini selip, ⱨǝrbiri uning üstigǝ oljisidin zirǝ-ⱨalⱪilarni elip taxlidi.
Baphendula bathi, “Sizathaba ukukunika wona.” Ngakho bendlala ingubo, kwathi umuntu ngamunye waphosela kuyo icici lempango yakhe.
26 U sorap yiƣⱪan altun zirilǝrning eƣirliⱪi bir ming yǝttǝ yüz xǝkǝl altun idi, buningdin baxⱪa Midiyan padixaⱨliri ɵzigǝ asⱪan ⱨilal ay xǝkillik buyumlar, zunnar, uqisiƣa kiygǝn sɵsün eginlǝr wǝ tɵgilǝrning boyniƣa asⱪan altun zǝnjirlǝrmu bar idi.
Isisindo samacici egolide ayewacelile saba ngamashekeli angamakhulu alitshumi lesikhombisa, kungabalwa izigqizo lemigaxo lezembatho eziyibubende ezigqokwa ngamakhosi aseMidiyani loba amaketane ayesezintanjeni zamakamela awo.
27 Gideon bu nǝrsilǝrdin bir ǝfod yasitip, ɵz xǝⱨiri Ofraⱨta ⱪoyup ⱪoydi. Nǝtijidǝ, pütkül Israil uni izdǝp buzuⱪqiliⱪ ⱪildi. Buning bilǝn bu nǝrsǝ Gideon wǝ uning pütün ailisigǝ bir tor-tuzaⱪ boldi.
UGidiyoni wenza isithombe ngegolide lelo, wasibeka e-Ofira, umuzi wakibo. Bonke abako-Israyeli bazingcolisa ngokusikhonza khonapho, njalo saba ngumjibila kuGidiyoni labendlu yakhe.
28 Midiyaniylar xu tǝriⱪidǝ Israillarning aldida boysundurulup, ikkinqi bax kɵtürǝlmidi; zemin Gideonning künliridǝ ⱪiriⱪ yilƣiqǝ tinq-aramliⱪ tapti.
IMidiyani yanqotshwa kanjalo ngabako-Israyeli njalo kayizange ivuse ikhanda futhi. Ngezinsuku zokuphila kukaGidiyoni ilizwe laba lokuthula iminyaka engamatshumi amane.
29 Yoaxning oƣli Yǝrubbaal ⱪaytip berip, ɵz ɵyidǝ olturdi.
UJerubhi-Bhali indodana kaJowashi wabuyela ekhaya ukuyahlala khona.
30 Gideonning ayalliri kɵp bolƣaqⱪa, uning puxtidin yǝtmix oƣul tɵrǝldi.
Wayelamadodana angamatshumi ayisikhombisa angawakhe ngoba wayelabafazi abanengi.
31 Xǝkǝmdǝ uning bir kenizikimu bar idi; u uningƣa bir oƣul tuƣup bǝrdi, Gideon uning ismini «Abimǝlǝk» dǝp ⱪoydi.
Umkakhe weceleni, owayehlala eShekhemu, laye wamzalela indodana ayithi ngu-Abhimelekhi.
32 Yoaxning oƣli Gideon uzun ɵmür kɵrüp, ⱪerip alǝmdin ɵtti. U Abiezǝrlǝrgǝ tǝwǝ bolƣan Ofraⱨda, ɵz atisi Yoaxning ⱪǝbrisigǝ dǝpnǝ ⱪilindi.
UGidiyoni indodana kaJowashi wafa eseluphele kakhulu wangcwatshwa ethuneni likayise uJowashi e-Ofira yama-Abhiyezeri.
33 Gideon ɵlgǝndin keyin Israillar kǝynigǝ yenip, Baal butliriƣa ǝgixip buzuⱪqiliⱪ ⱪildi wǝ «Baal-Berit»ni ɵzlirining ilaⱨi ⱪilip bekitti.
Masinyane nje uGidiyoni esanda kufa abako-Israyeli bazingcolisa njalo ngokukhonza oBhali. Bamisa uBhali-Bherithi njengonkulunkulu wabo
34 Xundaⱪ ⱪilip Israillar ɵzlirini ǝtrapidiki barliⱪ düxmǝnlirining ⱪolidin ⱪutⱪuzƣan ɵz Hudasi Pǝrwǝrdigarni untudi
kabaze bamkhumbula uThixo uNkulunkulu wabo owayebahlenge ezandleni zezitha zabo ezinhlangothini zonke.
35 wǝ xuningdǝk Gideonning Israilƣa ⱪilƣan ⱨǝmmǝ yahxiliⱪlirini ⱨeq ǝslimǝy, Yǝrubbaal (yǝni Gideon)ning jǝmǝtigǝ ⱨeqbir meⱨribanliⱪ kɵrsǝtmidi.
Njalo kababanga lomusa kwabendlu kaJerubhi-Bhali (uGidiyoni) ngezinto zonke ezinhle ayebenzele zona.
