1 Rabbi sundurko, handu iyye no a go Filistancey laabo ra.
1Zvino areka yaJehovha yakagara
2 Kala Filistancey na alfagey da gunakoy ce ka ne: «Ifo no iri ga te da Rabbi sundurko? Wa iri cabe nda mate kulu kaŋ cine no iri g'a samba d'a, a ma ye nga nango ra.»
2munyika yavaFirisitia mwedzi minomwe. VaFirisitia vakadana vapristi navavuki, vakati, Tichaita seiko neareka yaJehovha? Tizivisei mutowo watingaidzosera nawo kunzvimbo yayo.
3 I ne: «Hala day araŋ ga Israyla Irikoyo sundurko sallama, araŋ ma s'a sallama kambe koonu. Amma mate kulu kaŋ cine no, araŋ ma sargay no a se, taali banayaŋ wane. Waato din gaa no araŋ ga te baani, araŋ ma du ka bay mo sabaabo kaŋ se a kamba mana hibi ka fun araŋ gaa.»
3Vakati, Kana muchidzosera areka yaMwari waIsiraeri, musaituma isine chinhu; asi munofanira kumutumira chipiriso chemhosva; ipapo muchapora, mugoziva kuti ruoko rwake runoregereiko kubviswa kwamuri.
4 Gaa no i ne: «Ifo ga ti taali se sargay kaŋ iri ga no a se?» I ne: «Wura jaŋ gu da wura caŋ gu, Filistancey koyey baayaŋ me. Zama balaaw folloŋ no go araŋ nda araŋ koyey kulu boŋ.
4Zvino vakati, Chipiriso chemhosva chatinofanira kumuripira nacho ndecheiko? Vakati, Mamota mashanu endarama, namakonzo mashanu endarama, zvakaenzana namadzishe avaFirisitia; nekuti makanga marohwa nedambudziko rimwe, imwi mose namadzishe enyu.
5 Araŋ ma te araŋ jaŋey d'araŋ caŋey kaŋ yaŋ goono ga laabo sara himandi. Araŋ ma Israyla Irikoyo beerandi mo. Hambara a ga nga kamba dogonandi araŋ se, araŋ d'araŋ de-koyey d'araŋ laabo mo.
5Naizvozvo munofanira kuita mufananidzo wamamota enyu, nomufananidzo wamakonzo enyu anotadzira nyika, mukudze Mwari waIsiraeri; zvimwe ucharerutsa ruoko rwake pamusoro penyu, napamusoro pavamwari venyu, napamusoro penyika yenyu.
6 Ifo se no araŋ g'araŋ biney sandandi binde, sanda mate kaŋ Misirancey da Firawna te, kaŋ yaŋ na ngey biney sandandi? Waato kaŋ a na goyey kaŋ ga dambarandi te i jine, manti i kokor ka borey taŋ, ngey mo tun ka dira?
6Muchawomesereiko moyo sezvakaita vaEgipita naFarao vakawomesa moyo yavo? Nguva yaakaita zvishamiso pakati pavo, havana kurega vanhu here, vakaenda?
7 Sohõ binde, kal araŋ ma torko taji fo sambu. Araŋ m'a soola nda haw waari hinka kaŋ yaŋ i mana calu* haw i gaa baa ce fo, i ma torka din haw haw waari hinka din gaa. Day, i m'i handayzey gaay ka kaa i gaa k'i ye fu.
7Naizvozvo zvino torai mugadzire ngoro itsva, nemhou mbiri dzinomwisa dzisina kumboiswa joko, musunge mhou pangoro, asi muraurire mhuru dzadzo kumusha;
8 I ma Rabbi sundurko sambu ka dake torka boŋ. I ma wura taalam jinay kaŋ yaŋ araŋ ga no a se daŋ a banda danga taali se sarga, sundurku kayna fo ra a carawey gaa. Day, araŋ m'a taŋ a ma koy.
8zvino mutore areka yaJehovha, mugoiisa pangoro; nezvishongo zvendarama, zvamunomuripira nazvo kuti chive chipiriso chemhosva, mudziise mubhokisi parutivi rwayo, mugoituma iende.
9 Amma araŋ ma guna bo. D'a na nga hirro me fonda gana ka koy Bayt-Semes, to, kulu nga no ka ilaalo beero wo te iri se. Amma da manti yaadin no, kulu iri ga bay kaŋ manti a kamba no k'iri kar, amma kasaara fo no kaŋ du iri.»
9Zvino tarirai, kana ikakwira nenzira yenyika yayo kuBhetishemeshi, ndiye wakatiitira njodzi huru iyi; asi kana isingadaro, tichaziva kuti haruzi ruoko rwake rwakatirova, chinhu hacho chatiwira.
10 Borey binde te yaadin. I na haw waari hinka di ka torka haw i gaa, k'i handayzey gaay fu.
10Zvino varume vakaita saizvozvo; vakatora mhou mbiri dzakanga dzichimwisa, vakadzisunga pangoro, vakapfigira mhuru dzadzo kumusha;
11 I na Rabbi sundurko dake torka boŋ, da sundurku kayna kaŋ gonda caŋey da jaŋ himandey a ra.
11vakaisa areka yaJehovha pamusoro pengoro, nebhokisi rakanga rina makonzo endarama, nemifananidzo yamamota avo.
12 Hawey mo na Bayt-Semes fonda di, tururu, ka gana day fonda boŋ sap-sap. I ga dira, i ga borro! I mana kamba kambe ŋwaari wala kambe wow haray. Filistancey koyey mo n'i gana kala Bayt-Semes hirro gaa.
12Zvino mhou dzikarurama nenzira inoenda Bhetishemeshi, dzikafamba nenzira huru, dzikaenda dzichingokuma; hadzina kutsaukira kurudyi kana kuruboshwe; madzishe avaFirisitia akadzitevera kusvikira kumuganhu weBhetishemeshi.
13 Bayt-Semes borey binde goono ga ngey alkama wi heemar waate ngey goorey ra. I na ngey boŋey sambu. I na sundurko fonnay, i farhã nd'a diyaŋo mo.
13Zvino vanhu veBhetishemeshi vakanga vachicheka zviyo zvavo pamupata, vakatarira, vakaona areka, vakafara vachiiona.
14 Torka binde furo Yasuwa, Bayt-Semes bora faro ra ka kay noodin, naŋ kaŋ tondi beeri fo go. Noodin no i na torka tuurey faara, i na hawey te sargay kaŋ i ga ton Rabbi se.
14Ngoro ikasvika pamunda waJoshua muBhetishemeshi, ikamira pakanga pane bwe guru; ipapo vakapamura matanda engoro, vakabayira mhou vakadziita chipiriso chinopisirwa Jehovha.
15 Lawitey na Rabbi sundurko zumandi, nga nda sundurku kayna kaŋ go a banda din, nango kaŋ wura jinayey bara. I n'i dake tondi beero boŋ. Bayt-Semes borey mo na sargay kaŋ i ga ton salle. I na sargay fooyaŋ no mo han din Rabbi se.
15Zvino vaRevhi vakaburutsa areka yaJehovha, nebhokisi rakanga riri pairi, makanga mune zvishongo zvendarama, vakazviisa pabwe guru, varume veBhetishemeshi vakauya nezvipiriso zvinopiswa vakabayira Jehovha zvibayiro nomusi uyo.
16 Waato kaŋ Filistancey koy guwa din di woodin, han din i ye ka koy Ekron.
16Zvino madzishe mashanu avaFirisitia akati aona izvozvo, akadzokera Ekironi nomusi iwoyo.
17 Woone yaŋ no ga ti jaŋ himandey kaŋ yaŋ Filistancey no Rabbi se, taali banayaŋ sargay se: afo Asdod se, afo Gaza se, afo Askelon se, afo Gat se, afo mo Ekron se.
17Zvino ndiwo mamota endarama akaripwa namadzishe avaFirisitia, kuti chive chipiriso chemhosva kuna Jehovha; rimwe raiva reAshidhodhi, rimwe reGaza, rimwe reAshikeroni, rimwe reGati, rimwe reEkironi;
18 Wura caŋey go mo kwaarey kulu lasaabo boŋ kaŋ yaŋ go Filistancey mayraykoy guwa din kambe ra, za kwaarey kaŋ yaŋ gonda cinari kulu ka koy kawyey, kal a ma kaa ka to tondi beero do kaŋ boŋ i na Rabbi sundurko dake. Tondo din binde go no hala ka kaa sohõ Yasuwa Bayt-Semes bora faro ra.
18namakonzo endarama akanga akaenzana namaguta ose avaFirisitia, akanga ari amadzishe mashanu, aiva maguta akapoteredzwa namasvingo nemisha miduku yokuruwa. Uye ibwe guru ravakagadzika areka yaJehovha pamusoro paro, richiripo pamunda waJoshua muBhetishemeshi kusvikira nhasi.
19 Bayt-Semes borey ra mo Rabbi na boro zambar waygu nda boro wayye kar, zama i na Rabbi sundurko ra haray niigaw. Jama binde soobay ka baray zama Rabbi na jama kar da halaciyaŋ bambata.
19Zvino Jehovha akauraya vamwe vavarume veBhetishemeshi, nekuti vakanga vatarira mukati meareka yaJehovha; akauraya varume vane zviuru zvina makumi mashanu namakumi manomwe pakati pavanhu avo; vanhu vakachema, nekuti Jehovha wakange auraya vanhu nokuuraya kukuru.
20 Bayt-Semes borey mo ne: «May ka bara nda hina a ma kay Rabbi jine, Irikoy woone kaŋ ga hanan? May do no a ga koy ka fay da iri?»
20Zvino varume veBhetishemeshi vakati, Ndianiko unogona kumira pamberi paJehovha, Mwari uyu Mutsvene? Uchakwira kuna ani, kana achibva kwatiri?
21 I na diyayaŋ donton i ma koy Ciriyat-Yeyarim gorokoy do. I ne: «Filistancey na Rabbi sundurko yeti koyne. Wa kaa k'a sambu ka kond'a araŋ do.»
21Ipapo vakatuma nhume kuna vakanga vagere Kiriatijearimwi, vakati, VaFirisitia vadzosa areka yaJehovha; burukai imwi, muzoiisa kwenyu.
