¹Zvino Jefuta muGiriyadhi, wakange ari munhu ane simba noumhare, asi wakange ari mwanakomana wechifeve; Giriyadhi ndiye wakabereka Jefuta.

¹Haddaba Yeftaah oo reer Gilecaad ahaa wuxuu ahaa nin xoog leh, oo wuxuuna ahaa dhillo wiilkeed. Yeftaahna waxaa dhalay Gilecaad.

²Mukadzi waGiriyadhi akamuberekera vanakomana; zvino vanakomana vomukadzi wake vakati vakura, vakadzinga Jefuta, vakati kwaari, Haungadyi nhaka mumba mababa vedu, nekuti uri mwanakomana womumwe mukadzi.

²Oo Gilecaad naagtiisiina wiilal bay u dhashay, oo wiilashii naagtiisuna markay koreen ayay Yeftaah iska eryeen, oo waxay ku yidhaahdeen, Reerka aabbeheen adigu nala dhaxli maysid; maxaa yeelay, naag kalaa ku dhashay.

³Ipapo Jefuta akatiza vanin'ina vake, akandogara panyika yeTobhi; varume vakaipa vakaunganira kuna Jefuta, vakasibuda naye kundorwa.

³Markaasuu Yeftaah walaalihiis ka cararay, oo wuxuu degay dalkii Toob: markaasaa waxaa isku soo ururay ciyaalasuuq, oo iyana waxay raaceen Yeftaah.

⁴Zvino nguva yakati yapfuura, vana vaAmoni vakandorwa navalsiraeri,

⁵Zvino vana vaAmoni vakati vorwa navaIsiraeri, vakuru veGiriyadhi vakandotora Jefuta panyika yeTobhi.

⁵Oo markii reer Cammoon ay la dirireen reer binu Israa'iil ayaa odayaashii reer Gilecaad Yeftaah ka dooneen dalkii Toob;

⁶Vakati kuna Jefuta, Uya, uve ishe wedu, kuti tindorwa navana vaAmoni.

⁶oo waxay Yeftaah ku yidhaahdeen, Kaalay oo madax noo noqo, aynu reer Cammoon la dirirnee.

⁷Jefuta akati kuvakuru veGiriyadhi, Hamuna kundivenga mukandidzinga mumba mababa vangu here? Zvino mauyireiko kwandiri, zvamava munjodzi?

⁷Markaasuu Yeftaah odayaashii reer Gilecaad ku yidhi, War sow ima aydnaan nebcayn oo igama aydnaan eryin reerkii aabbahay? Maxaad haatan iigu timaadeen idinkoo cidhiidhi ku jira?

⁸Vakuru veGiriyadhi vakati kuna Jefuta, Naizvozvo tadzokera kwauri, kuti uende nesu kundorwa navana vaAmoni, iwe ugova mukuru wedu nowavose vagere Giriyadhi.

⁸Oo odayaashii reer Gilecaadna waxay ku yidhaahdeen Yeftaah, War haatan waannu kuu soo noqonnay si aad noo raacdid oo aad ula dirirtid reer Cammoon, oo madax ayaad noo noqonaysaa oo waxaad ugu sarraynaysaa dadka deggan dalka Gilecaad oo dhan.

⁹Jefuta akati kuvakuru veGiriyadhi, Kana muchindidzosa kuti ndirwe navana vaAmoni, kana Jehovha akavaisa mumaoko angu, ndichava mukuru wenyu here?

⁹Markaasuu Yeftaah ku yidhi odayaashii reer Gilecaad, Haddaad mar kale dalkii iigu celisaan inaan reer Cammoon la diriro, oo Rabbigu iyaga gacanta ii soo geliyo, de markaas madax ma idiin noqonayaa?

¹⁰Vakuru veGiriyadhi vakati kuna Jefuta, Jehovha unoteerera pakati pedu; zvirokwazvo tichaita sezvawataura iwe.

¹⁰Oo odayaashii reer Gilecaadna waxay Yeftaah ku yidhaahdeen, Taas Rabbigu ha ka noqdo marag inoo dhexaya; oo hubaal waxaannu yeelaynaa siduu eraygaagu yahay.

¹¹Zvino Jefuta akaenda navakuru veGiriyadhi, vanhu vakamuita mukuru nashe wavo; Jefuta akataura mashoko ake ose pamberi paJehovha paMizipa.

¹¹Markaasuu Yeftaah raacay odayaashii reer Gilecaad oo dadkiina waxay isagii ka dhigteen madax iyo ugaas iyaga ka sarreeya; oo Yeftaah wuxuu hadalkiisii oo dhan Rabbiga ugu sheegay Misfaah.

¹²Zvino Jefuta akatuma nhume kuna mambo wavana vaAmoni, akati, Mhosva yako ndeyeiko, zvawauya kuzorwa neni nenyika yangu?

¹²Markaasuu Yeftaah wargeeyayaal u diray boqorkii reer Cammoon, oo wuxuu ku yidhi, War maxaa inaga dhexeeya, oo maxaad iigu timid oo aad dalkayga iigu la diriraysaa?

¹³Mambo wavana vaAmoni akapindura nhume dzaJefuta, akati: Nekuti vaIsiraeri vakatora nyika yangu, nguva yavakabva Egipita, kubva paArinoni kusvikira paJabhoki neJoridhani, saka zvino chidzosai nyika idzo norugare.

¹³Markaasuu boqorkii reer Cammoon ku yidhi wargeeyayaashii Yeftaah ka yimid, Maxaa yeelay, reer binu Israa'iil markii ay ka yimaadeen Masar, waxay iga dhaceen dalkaygii ilaa Arnoon iyo tan iyo xataa Yabboq, iyo ilaa Urdun; haddaba dalalkaas oo dhan nabad iigu soo celi.

¹⁴Ipapo Jefuta akatumazve nhume kuna mambo wavana vaAmoni,

¹⁴Oo Yeftaah haddana wargeeyayaal buu u diray boqorkii reer Cammoon;

¹⁵akati kwavari, Zvanzi naJefuta, VaIsiraeri havana kutora nyika yaMoabhu, kana nyika yavana vaAmoni;

¹⁵oo wuxuu ku yidhi, Yeftaah wuxuu leeyahay, Reer binu Israa'iil ma dhicin dalkii reer Moo'aab iyo dalkii reer Cammoon toona:

¹⁶asi panguva yakakwira valsiraeri vachibva Egipita, vakafamba murenje kusvikira paGungwa Dzvuku, vakasvika paKadheshi,

¹⁶laakiinse markii ay ka yimaadeen Masar, reer binu Israa'iil waxay soo mareen cidlada ilaa xagga Badda Cas, oo dabadeedna waxay yimaadeen Qaadeesh;

¹⁷vaIsiraeri vakatuma nhume kuna mambo waEdhomu, vachiti, Nditenderei henyu kupfuura napanyika yenyu; asi mambo waEdhomu wakaramba kunzwa. Saizvozvo akatumawo nhume kuna mambo waMoabhu; asi iye wakaramba; zvino vaIsiraeri vakagara paKadheshi.

¹⁷markaasaa reer binu Israa'iil waxay wargeeyayaal u direen boqorkii reer Edom, oo waxay ku yidhaahdeen, Waannu ku baryaynaaye, aannu dalkaaga dhex marno; laakiinse boqorkii reer Edom ma uu dhegaysan. Sidaas oo kalena waxay cid u direen boqorkii reer Moo'aab; laakiinse isna wuu diiday; oo reer binu Israa'iilna waxay iska joogeen Qaadeesh.

¹⁸Ipapo vakafamba nomurenje, vakapota nyika yaEdhomu nenyika yaMoabhu, vakaenda nokumabvazuva enyika yaMoabhu, vakadzika matende avo nechemhiri kwaArinoni; asi havana kudarika muganhu waMoabhu, nekuti Arinoni waiva muganhu waMoabhu.

¹⁸Markaasay dhex mareen cidladii, oo waxay hareereeyeen dalkii reer Edom, iyo dalkii reer Moo'aab, oo waxay yimaadeen geesta bari oo dalka reer Moo'aab, oo waxay degeen Arnoon geesteeda kale; laakiinse soohdintii reer Moo'aab sooma ay gelin, waayo, Arnoon waxay ahayd soohdintii dalka reer Moo'aab.

¹⁹Ipapo vaIsiraeri vakatuma nhume kuna Sihoni, mambo wavaAmori, mambo weHeshibhoni; vaIsiraeri vakati kwaari, Titenderei henyu kupfuura napanyika yenyu, kusvikira panzvimbo yedu.

¹⁹Markaasay reer binu Israa'iil wargeeyayaal u direen boqorkii reer Amor oo Siixon ahaa oo boqor u ahaa Xeshboon; oo reer binu Israa'iil waxay ku yidhaahdeen Siixon, Waannu ku baryaynaaye, aannu dalkaaga dhex marno si aannu ugu gudubno meeshayadii.

²⁰Asi Sihoni haana kutenda vaIsiraeri kuti vadarike muganhu wake; Sihoni akaunganidza vanhu vake vose, akandodzika matende ake paJahazi, akarwa navalsiraeri.

²⁰Laakiinse Siixon ma aaminin reer binu Israa'iil inay dhex maraan dalkiisii; laakiinse Siixon wuxuu soo urursaday dadkiisii oo dhan, oo intuu Yahas soo degay ayuu reer binu Israa'iil la diriray.

²¹Zvino Jehovha Mwari wavaIsiraeri akaisa Sihoni navanhu vake vose mumaoko avaIsiraeri vakavauraya; naizvozvo vaIsiraeri vakatora nyika yose yavaAmori, vakanga vagere munyika ivo, ikava yavo.

²¹Markaasuu Rabbiga ah Ilaaha reer binu Israa'iil Siixon iyo dadkiisii oo dhanba ku riday gacantii reer binu Israa'iil oo iyana way laayeen iyagii; oo sidaasay reer binu Israa'iil ku hantiyeen dalkii reer Amor oo dhan iyo dadkii waddankaasba.

²²Nyika yose yavaAmori ikava yavo, kubva paArinoni kusvikira paJabhoki, kubva kurenje, kusvikira paJoridhani.

²²Oo waxay hantiyeen dalkii reer Amor oo dhan tan iyo Arnoon iyo ilaa Yabboq, iyo tan iyo cidlada iyo ilaa Webi Urdun.

²³Saka zvino Jehovha Mwari wavaIsiraeri ndiye wakatorera vaAmori nyika yavo pamberi pavanhu vake vaIsiraeri, zvino imwi moda kuvatorerazve here?

²³Haddaba haatan inta Rabbiga ah Ilaaha reer binu Israa'iil reer Amor dalka kaga qaaday dadkiisa reer binu Israa'iil hortooda, miyaad adigu qabsanaysaa iyaga?

²⁴Ko imwi hamungatori izvo zvamunopiwa namwari wenyu Kemoshi here, nesuwo titore nyika yavose vanodzingwa pamberi pedu naJehovha Mwari wedu?

²⁴Sow lahaan maysid wuxuu ilaahaaga Kemoosh ahu ku siiyo inaad lahaatid? Taas aawadeed kuwa Rabbiga Ilaahayaga ahu hortayada ka eryo waannu qabsan doonnaa.

²⁵Ko zvino imwi makanaka kupfuura Bharaki mwanakomana waZipori, mambo waMoabhu here? Iye wakatongopopotera vaIsiraeri, kana kurwa navo here?

²⁵Haddaba miyaad ka wanaagsan tahay boqorkii reer Moo'aab oo ahaa Baalaaq ina Sifoor? Miyuu weligiis la diriray reer binu Israa'iil, oo miyuu weligiis la dagaallamay reer binu Israa'iil?

²⁶Nguva yakagara vaIsiraeri paHeshibhoni nemisha yaro, napaAroeri nemisha yaro, napamaguta ose ari parutivi rwaArinoni, makore ana mazana matatu, makaregereiko kuvatorera nyika iyo nenguva iyo?

²⁶Oo intii reer binu Israa'iil ay degganaayeen Xeshboon iyo magaalooyinkeedii, iyo Carooceer iyo magaalooyinkeedii, iyo magaalooyinkii Arnoon dhinaceeda ku yiil oo dhan, intaasu waxay ahayd saddex boqol oo sannadood ee maxaad wakhtigaas u soo qabsan weydeen?

²⁷Naizvozvo ini handina kukutadzira, asi ndiwe unondiitira zvakaipa, uchida kurwa neni; Jehovha, iye Mutongi, ngaatonge nhasi pakati pavana vaIsiraeri navana vaAmoni.

²⁷Sidaas daraaddeed anigu kuguma aan dembaabin, laakiinse adigu qalad baad igu samaynaysaa inaad ila dirirto. Rabbiga xaakinka ahu maanta ha noqdo xaakin u dhexeeya reer binu Israa'iil iyo reer Cammoon.

²⁸Asi mambo wavana vaAmoni haana kuteerera mashoko aJefuta, aakatuma kwaari.

²⁸Habase yeeshee, boqorkii reer Cammoon ma uu dhegaysan erayadii Yeftaah u soo diray.

²⁹Zvino Mweya waJehovha wakauya pamusoro paJefuta, akapfuura kunyika yaGiriyadhi neyaManase, akapfuurawo napaMizipa paGiriyadhi, akabva paMizipa paGiriyadhi, akapfuura kuvana vaAmoni.

²⁹Markaasaa Ruuxii Rabbigu wuxuu ku soo degay Yeftaah, oo wuxuu soo dhaafay reer Gilecaad iyo reer Manaseh, oo wuxuu soo dhaafay Misfaah tii reer Gilecaad, oo markaasuu Misfaah tii reer Gilecaadna wuxuu uga sii gudbay xagga reer Cammoon.

³⁰Jefuta akapikira Jehovha mhiko, akati, Kana mukaisa vana vaAmoni mumaoko angu,

³⁰Markaasaa Yeftaah wuxuu Rabbiga u nidray nidar, oo wuxuu yidhi, Hubaal haddaad reer Cammoon gacantayda soo geliso,

³¹ipapo ani naani unobuda pamikova yeimba yangu kuzosongana neni, musi wandinodzoka norugare ndichibva kuvana vaAmoni, uchava waJehovha; ndichauya naye, chive chipiriso chinopiswa.

³¹markaasaa wax alla wixii irdaha gurigayga ka soo baxo inuu ila kulmo markaan reer Cammoon nabad kaga soo noqdo, waxaa lahaan doona Rabbiga, oo waxaan u bixin doonaa allabari la gubo.

³²Ipapo Jefuta akapfuurira kuvana vaAmoni, akandorwa navo; Jehovha akavaisa mumaoko ake.

³²Markaasuu Yeftaah u gudbay xagga reer Cammoon inuu la dagaallamo, oo Rabbiguna gacantiisuu soo geliyey.

³³Akavaparadza nokuparadza kukuru kwazvo, kubva paAroeri kusvikira paMiniti, maguta anamakumi maviri, nokusvikira paAbherikeramimi. Vana vaAmoni vakakundwa saizvozvo pamberi pavana vaIsiraeri.

³³Oo wuxuu iyagii laayay ilaa Carooceer iyo tan iyo ilaa aad Minniid timaadid, oo intaasu waxay ahaayeen labaatan magaalo, oo ilaa Aabeel Keraamiimna wuxuu ku laayay dad badan. Sidaasaa reer Cammoon loogu hoosaysiiyey reer binu Israa'iil hortooda.

³⁴Jefuta akasvika paMizipa paimba yake, zvino tarira, mukunda wake akabuda kuzosangana naye namakandira, nokupembera. Iye wakange ari mwana wake mumwe chete, wakange asina mumwe mwana kunze kwake, kana mwanakomana, kana mwanasikana.

³⁴Markaasuu Yeftaah yimid Misfaah xagga gurigiisii, oo bal eeg, gabadhiisii baa ka soo baxday inay la kulanto, iyadoo daf tumaysa oo cayaaraysa. Madi bay u ahayd oo iyada mooyaane wiil iyo gabadh midna ma uu lahayn.

³⁵Zvino wakati achimuona, akabvarura nguvo dzake, akati, Haiwa! Mukunda wangu! Iwe wandionesa nhamo kwazvo, iwe uri pakati pavanondiisa panjodzi; nekuti ndakashamisa muromo wangu kuna Jehovha, handingagoni kudzoka.

³⁵Oo markuu arkay iyadii ayuu dharkiisii iska jeexjeexay, oo wuxuu yidhi, Hoogay gabadhaydiiyey! Hoos baad ii dhigtay, oo waxaad tahay kuwa i dhiba middood; waayo, Rabbigaan afkayga u furay, oo dibna uma aan noqon karo.

³⁶Iye akati, Baba vangu, makashamisa muromo wenyu kuna Jehovha; ndiitirei henyu sezvamakataura, nekuti Jehovha wakakutsivirai kwazvo vavengi venyu, ivo vana vaAmoni.

³⁶Oo waxay ku tidhi, Aabbahayow, Rabbigaad afkaaga u furtay, haddaba igu samee wixii afkaaga ka soo baxay, waayo, Rabbigu waa kaaga aarguday cadaawayaashaadii, kuwaasoo ahaa reer Cammoon.

³⁷Akati kuna baba vake, Nditenderei henyu chinhu ichi: Nditenderei mwedzi miviri, ndiende, ndiburukire kumakomo, ndicheme umhandara hwangu, ini neshamwari dzangu.

³⁷Oo waxay aabbaheed ku tidhi, Bal waxan ha la ii sameeyo, intii laba bilood ah i daa, oo intaan buuraha tago, aniga iyo saaxiibadahay, aan bikradnimadayda u baroortee.

³⁸Ivo vakati, Chienda hako. Akamutendera mwedzi miviri; akaenda, iye neshamwari dzake, akandochema umhandara hwake kumakomo.

³⁸Markaasuu yidhi, Tag. Oo intii laba bilood ah ayuu iska diray; oo iyadii iyo saaxiibadaheedba way tageen, oo bikradnimadeedii ayay buuraha ugu soo baroorteen.

³⁹Zvino mwedzi miviri yakati yapera, akadzokera kuna baba vake, ivo vakamuitira sezvavakanga vapika; wakange asina kuziva murume. Ikazova tsika pakati pavaIsiraeri,
