¹Oo reer binu Israa'iilna waxay sameeyeen wax Rabbiga hortiisa ku xun; markaasaa Rabbigu wuxuu intii toddoba sannadood ah gacanta u geliyey reer Midyaan.

²Midhiani akakunda Isiraeri; vana vaIsiraeri vakazviitira pokuvanda pamakomo, namapako, nenhare, nokuda kwaMidhiani.

²Oo gacantii Midyaanna waa ka adkaatay reer binu Israa'iil; markaasaa reer binu Israa'iil waxay reer Midyaan aawadood u samaysteen boholo buuraha ku yaal, iyo godad, iyo dhufaysyo xoog leh.

³nekuti vaIsiraeri vakati kana vakusha, vaMidhiani navaAmareki navana vamabvazuva ndokukwira kuzorwa navo.

³Oo markii reer binu Israa'iil ay wax beeri jireen, waxaa iman jiray reer Midyaan iyo reer Camaaleq, iyo reer bariga, wayna ku kici jireen;

⁴Vakadzika matende avo pakatarisana navo, ndokuparadza zvibereko zveminda kusvikira paGaza; havana kusiira vaIsiraeri zvokudya kana makwai kana mombe, kana mbongoro.

⁴oo intay ag degaan ayay ka baabbi'in jireen wixii dhulka uga baxay, ilaa la soo gaadho Gaasa, oo reer binu Israa'iil ugama ay tegin wax la quuto, iyo ido, iyo dibi, iyo dameerro toona.

⁵Nekuti vaikwira nezvipfuwo zvavo, namatende avo; vaiuya vakawanda semhashu, vasingagoni kuverengwa, ivo namakamera avo; vaipinda munyika kuti vaiparadze.

⁵Waayo, waxay la iman jireen xoolahooda iyo teendhooyinkooda, oo waxay u faro badnaayeen sida ayaxa oo kale. Iyaga iyo geeloodu midna tiro ma lahayn; oo waxay dalka u iman jireen inay baabbi'iyaan.

⁸ayaa Rabbigu reer binu Israa'iil u soo diray nebi; oo wuxuu ku yidhi iyagii, Rabbiga ah Ilaaha reer binu Israa'iil sidan buu leeyahay, Anaa idinka soo bixiyey dalkii Masar, oo waxaan idinka soo saaray gurigii addoonsiga;

⁹ndikakurwirai mumaoko avaEgipita, nomumaoko avose vaikumanikidzai, ndikavadzinga pamberi penyu, ndikakupai nyika yavo;

⁹waanan idinka soo samatabbixiyey gacantii Masriyiinta, iyo gacantii kuwii idin dulmi jiray oo dhan, oo kulligood intaan hortiinna ka eryay ayaan dalkoodii idin siiyey;

¹⁰ndikati kwamuri, Ndini Jehovha Mwari wenyu; hamufaniri kutya vamwari vavaAmori, vamugere munyika yavo; asi hamuna kuteerera inzwi rangu.

¹⁰oo waxaan idinku idhi, Anigu waxaan ahay Rabbiga Ilaahiinna ah, oo waa inaydnaan ka baqin ilaahyada reer Amor oo aad dalkooda deggan tihiin; laakiinse idinku ma aydnaan dhegaysan codkaygii.

¹¹Markaasaa waxaa yimid malaggii Rabbiga, oo wuxuu hoos fadhiistay geedkii ku yiil Cofraah, oo uu lahaa Yoo'aash kii reer Abiiceser; oo wiilkiisii Gidcoon ahaa ayaa sarreen ku tumayay meeshii macsaradda inuu ka qariyo reer Midyaan.

¹²Ipapo mutumwa waJehovha akazviratidza kwaari, akati kwaari, Jehovha anewe, iwe murume ane simba noumhare.

¹²Markaasaa malaggii Rabbigu u muuqday, oo wuxuu ku yidhi, Rabbigu waa kula jiraa, nin yahow xoogga lahu.

¹³Gidheoni akati kwaari, Haiwa, Ishe wangu, kana Jehovha anesu, ko izvi zvose zvakagotiwirireiko? Zviripiko zvishamiso zvake zvose, zvataiudzwa namadzibaba edu, achiti, Jehovha haana kutikwidza here, achitibudisa paEgipita? Asi zvino Jehovha wakatirasha, akatiisa mumaoko avaMidhiani.

¹³Oo markaasaa Gidcoon malaggii ku yidhi, Sayidkaygiiyow, haddii Rabbigu nala jiro, de maxaa waxyaalahan oo dhammu noogu dhaceen? Oo meeye kulli shuqulladiisii yaabka lahaa oo ay awowayaashayo noo sheegeen, oo ay nagu yidhaahdeen, Miyaanu Rabbigu naga soo bixin dalkii Masar? Laakiinse haatan Rabbigu waa na xooray, oo wuxuu gacanta noo geliyey reer Midyaan.

¹⁴Ipapo Jehovha akatendeukita kwaari, akati, Enda nesimba rako iri, undoponesa Isiraeri pamaoko aMidhiani, handizini ndakakutuma here?

¹⁴Markaasaa Rabbigu isagii eegay, oo wuxuu ku yidhi, Xooggaagan ku tag, oo reer binu Israa'iil ka badbaadi gacanta reer Midyaan. Sow kuma aanan dirin?

¹⁵Akati kwaari, Haiwa, Ishe, ndichagoponesa Isiraeri neiko? Tarirai rudzi rwangu ruduku kuna vose paManase, neni ndiri muduku kuna vose paimba yababa vangu.

¹⁵Markaasuu isna wuxuu ku yidhi, Sayidow, maxaan reer binu Israa'iil ku badbaadiyaa? Bal eeg, reerkaygu waa kan ugu liita reer Manaseh, oo anna waxaan ahay kan ugu yar reerka aabbahay.

¹⁶Jehovha akati kwaari, Zvirokwazvo, ini ndichava newe, iwe uchakunda vaMidhiani somunhu mumwe.

¹⁶Markaasaa Rabbigu wuxuu ku yidhi, Hubaal waan kula jirayaa, oo waxaad reer Midyaan u layn doontaa sida nin keliya.

¹⁷Akati kwaari, Kana ndawana nyasha pamberi penyu zvino, ndiratidzei chiratidzo kuti ndimwi munotaura neni.

¹⁷Oo markaasuu wuxuu ku yidhi, Haddaba haddaad raalli iga tahay, de calaamo i tus inaad tahay kan ila hadlaya.

¹⁸Regai henyu kubva pano, kusvikira ndadzokera kwamuri, ndikuvigirei chipo changu, ndichiise pamberi penyu. Iye akati, Ndichagara pano kusvikira wadzokazve.

¹⁸Waan ku baryayaaye, halkaas ha ka tegin ilaa aan kuu imaado, oo aan qurbaankayga kuu keeno, oo aan ku hor dhigo. Isagu wuxuu yidhi, Waan ku sugayaa ilaa aad soo noqotid.

¹⁹Ipapo Gidheoni akapinda, akandogadzira mbudzana nezvingwa zvisina kuviriswa zveefa imwe youpfu; akaisa nyama mudengu, nokudira muto muhari; akamuvigira izvozvo pasi pomuouki, ndokumupa izvozvo.

¹⁹Markaasaa Gidcoon gudaha galay, oo wuxuu diyaariyey orgi yar, iyo qiyaas eefaah bur ah oo uu ka sameeyey kibis aan khamiir lahayn. Hilibkii wuxuu ku riday dambiil, maraqiina dheri buu ku shubay, oo wuxuu ugu keenay oo ku siiyey geedkii hoostiisa.

²⁰Asi mutumwa waJehovha akati kwaari, Tora nyama nezvingwa zvisina kuviriswa, uzviise padombo iri, ugodururawo muto. Iye akaita saizvozvo.

²⁰Markaasaa malaggii Ilaah wuxuu ku yidhi isagii, Hilibka iyo kibista aan khamiirka lahayn qaad, oo waxaad saartaa dhagaxan, oo maraqana ku qub. Oo isna sidaasuu yeelay.

²¹Zvino mutumwa waJehovha ndokutambanudza muromo wetsvimbo, yakanga iri muruoko rwake, akagunzva nyama nezvingwa zvisina kuviriswa, moto ukabuda padombo, ukapedza nyama nezvingwa zvisina kuviriswa. Mutumwa waJehovha ndokunyangarika pamberi pake.

²¹Markaasaa malaggii Rabbigu wuxuu soo taagay ushii gacantiisa ku jirtay dabadeedii, oo wuxuu ku taabtay hilibkii iyo kibistii aan khamiirka lahayn, markaasaa dab ka soo baxay dhagaxii, oo wuxuu laastay hilibkii iyo kibistii aan khamiirka lahayn; oo markaasaa malaggii Rabbigu ka libdhay araggiisii.

²²Ipapo Gidheoni akaona kuti mutumwa waJehovha. Gidheoni akati, Haiwa, Jehovha Mwari! Nekuti ndaona mutumwa waJehovha zviso zvakatarisana.

²²Markaasaa Gidcoon arkay inuu yahay malaggii Rabbiga, oo Gidcoon wuxuu yidhi, Waa ii hoog, Sayidow, Rabbiyow, waayo, malaggii Rabbiga ayaan fool ka fool u arkay.

²³Asi Jehovha wakati kwaari, Rugare ngaruve newe, usatya, haungafi.

²³Kolkaasaa Rabbigu wuxuu ku yidhi isagii, Nabad ahow, oo ha cabsan, adigu dhiman mayside.

²⁴Ipapo Gidheoni akavakirapo Jehovha atari, akaitumidza zita rinonzi Jehovha-sharomi; ichiripo paOfura ravaAbhiezeri kusvikira nhasi.

²⁴Markaasaa Gidcoon halkaas wuxuu Rabbiga uga dhisay meel allabari, oo wuxuu magaceedii u bixiyey Rabbigu waa nabad, oo taasu xataa maantadan la joogo waxay ku taal Cofraah tii reer Abiiceser.

²⁵Zvino nousiku ihwohwo Jehovha akati kwaari, Tora nzombe yababa vako, iya yechipiri ina makore manomwe, uputse atari yaBhaari yababa vako, utemewo danda rokunamata naro riripo.

²⁵Oo isla habeenkaas ayaa Rabbigu ku yidhi isagii, Kaxayso dibiga aabbahaa, kaasoo ah dibiga labaad oo toddoba jirka ah, oo waxaad dumisaa meeshaa allabariga loogu bixiyo Bacal oo aabbahaa haysto, oo geedaha Asheeraah ku ag yaalna jar;

²⁶Uvakire Jehovha Mwari wako atari pamusoro penhare iyi, nomutowo wakafanira, ugotora nzombe iyo yechipiri, ubayire chipiriso chinopiswa nehuni dzedanda rokunamata naro raunofanira kutema.

²⁶oo Rabbiga Ilaahaaga ah meel allabari uga dul dhis dhufayskan, oo hagaaji, oo kexee dibiga labaad, oo geedihii Asheeraah oo aad gooysay qoryihiisa ku bixi allabari la gubo.

²⁷Ipapo Gidheoni akatora varume vane gumi kuvaranda vake, akaita sezvaakaudzwa naJehovha; asi haana kuita izvozvo masikati, asi wakazviita usiku, nekuti wakatya veimba yababa vake navarume veguta.

²⁷Markaasaa Gidcoon wuxuu soo kaxaystay toban nin oo addoommadiisii ahaa, oo wuxuu sameeyey wixii Rabbigu u sheegay, oo shuqulkii habeennimuu sameeyey, maxaa yeelay, wuxuu ka cabsanayay reerkii aabbihiis iyo dadkii magaalada, oo taas darteed maalinnimo ma uu samayn karin.

²⁸Zvino varume veguta vakati vachimuka mangwanani, vakaona atari yaBhaari yaputswa, nedanda rokunamata naro raivapo ratemwa, nenzombe yechipiri yabayirwa paatari yakanga yavakwapo.

²⁸Oo dadkii magaaladu markay aroor hore soo tooseen ayay arkeen in meeshii allabariga Bacal loogu bixin jiray ay dunsan tahay iyo in geedihii Asheeraah oo agteeda ku yiil ay salka ka go'an yihiin, iyo in dibigii labaad lagu dul bixiyey meeshii allabariga oo loo dhisay.

²⁹Vakataurirana, vakati, Ndianika wakaita chinhu ichi? Vakati vachinzvera nokubvunzisisa, zvikanzi, Gidheoni mwanakomana waJoashi, ndiye wakaita chinhu ichi.

²⁹Markaasaa midkoodba wuxuu kii kale ku yidhi, Yaa waxakan sameeyey? Oo markay haybiyeen oo dadkii weyddiiyeen ayaa la yidhi, Waxakan waxaa sameeyey Gidcoon ina Yoo'aash.

³⁰Zvino varume veguta vakati kuna Joashi, Budisa mwanakomana wako, afe, nekuti waputsa atari yaBhaari, uye watema danda rokunamata naro raivapo pairi.

³⁰Markaasaa dadkii magaaladu waxay Yoo'aash ku yidhaahdeen, Soo bixi wiilkaaga aan dilnee, waayo, wuxuu dumiyey meeshii allabariga Bacal loogu bixin jiray, oo geedihii Asheeraah oo ku ag yiilna salkuu ka gooyay.

³¹Asi Joashi wakati kuna vose vakanga vachimupopotera, Moda kurwira Bhaari kanhi? Moda kumuponesa? Unomurwira uchaurawa mangwanani ano; kana ari mwari, ngaazvirwire amene, zvaakaputsirwa atari yake nomunhu.

³¹Markaasaa Yoo'aash wuxuu ku yidhi dadkii ku kacay oo dhan, Ma idinkaa u dagaallamaya Bacal? Oo ma isagaad badbaadinaysaan? Kii u dagaallama ha la dilo subaxda, waayo, hadduu isagu ilaah yahay, de ha isu dagaallamo, maxaa yeelay, waxaa laga jebiyey meeshiisii allabariga.

³²Saka nomusi iwoyo akamutumidza zita rinonzi Jerubhaari, achiti, Bhaari ngaarwe naye, zvaakaputsa atari yake.

³²Sidaas daraaddeed wuxuu maalintaas Gidcoon u bixiyey Yerubbacal, oo wuxuu yidhi, Bacal ha la dagaallamo isaga, maxaa yeelay, wuxuu ka dumiyey meeshiisii allabariga.

³³Zvino vaMidhiani vose navaAmareki navana vamabvazuva vakaungana, vakayambuka, vakadzika matende avo pamupata weJezereeri.

³³Markaasaa waxaa is-urursaday reer Midyaan, iyo reer Camaaleq, iyo reer barigii oo dhan, oo intay Webi Urdun ka gudbeen ayay dooxadii Yesreceel degeen.

³⁴Asi Mweya waJehovha wakasvika pamusoro paGidheoni, akaridza hwamanda, vaAbhiezeri vakaungana vakamutevera.

³⁴Laakiinse Ruuxii Rabbigu wuxuu ku soo degay Gidcoon, markaasuu buun ku dhuftay, oo waxaa ku soo ururay reer Abiiceser.

³⁵Akatuma nhume pakati pavaManase vose, naivo vakaungana vakamutevera; akatumawo nhume kuna Asheri, naZebhuruni, naNafutari, naivo vakakwira kuzosangana navo.

³⁵Oo wuxuu wargeeyayaal u diray reer Manaseh oo dhan, oo iyana markaasay ku soo urureen; oo haddana wuxuu wargeeyayaal u diray reer Aasheer, iyo reer Sebulun, iyo reer Naftaali, oo iyana way u yimaadeen inay la kulmaan iyagii.

³⁶Ipapo Gidheoni akati kuna Mwari, Kana muchida kuponesa Isiraeri noruoko rwangu, sezvamakataura,

³⁶Markaasaa Gidcoon wuxuu Ilaah ku yidhi, Sidaad ii sheegtay, haddaad reer binu Israa'iil gacantayda ku badbaadinaysid,

³⁷tarirai, ndichaisa debwe rine mvere paburiro; kana kukava nedova padebwe chete, pasi pose pakaoma, ndichaziva kuti munoda kuponesa Isiraeri noruoko rwangu, sezvamakataura.

³⁷bal eeg, meesha sarreenka lagu tumo ayaan dhigayaa dhogor idaad, haddaba haddii dharab qoyo dhogorta keliya oo dhulka kale oo dhammuna uu engegnaado, markaasaan ogaanayaa inaad gacantayda ku badbaadinaysid reer binu Israa'iil, sidaad ku hadashay.

³⁸Zvikava saizvozvo; nekuti wakamuka mangwanani, akambundanidza debwe, akasvina mvura padebwe, ikazadza mbiya.

³⁸Oo sidii bay noqotay, waayo, markuu toosay subaxdii dambe, oo tuujiyey dhogorta, wuxuu ka maroojiyey koob muuggiis oo biyo ah.

³⁹Zvino Gidheoni akati kuna Mwari, Regai henyu kunditsamwira, kana ndikataurazve kamwe chete; nditenderei ndiidzezve kamwe chete nedebwe; zvino padebwechetepave pakaoma, asi pasi pose pave nedova.

³⁹Markaasaa Gidcoon wuxuu Ilaah ku yidhi, Cadhadaadu yaanay igu kululaan oo markan keliya ayaan hadlayaa. Markan keliya aan dhogorta wax ku hubsado, waan ku baryayaaye. Bal markan dhogorta keliya engeg ha noqoto, laakiinse dhulka kale oo dhammu dharab ha lahaado.Oo Ilaahna sidii buu yeelay habeenkaas; waayo, waxaa engegnaa dhogortii keliya, oo dhulka kale oo dhammuna dharab buu lahaa.

⁴⁰Mwari akaita saizvozvo usiku uhwo; nekuti padebwechetepakanga pakaoma, asi dova rakanga riri pasi pose.

⁴⁰Oo Ilaahna sidii buu yeelay habeenkaas; waayo, waxaa engegnaa dhogortii keliya, oo dhulka kale oo dhammuna dharab buu lahaa.
