Afundixi 7:1-25
7 Kyenyiki, Jelubahale kifwa, Ngidiyone ni mundu woso wexile-nê kumoxi, abalumuka mu kamene kaselu ya ayi bhwa zukama ni hoto ya ngiji ya Halodi. Kyoso akwa Midiyana kyakexile ku mbandu ya thunda ya kifuxi kya Ngidiyone, bhwa zukama ni kamulundu ka Molé, mu honga.
2 Jihova wambela Ngidiyone, wixi: “O mayala ala n’eye avulu phala ngibhakule akwa Midiyana bhu maku mé. O akwa Izalayele eji dinanza mukonda dyami, mu kwamba: ‘O lukwaku lwami lwene lwa ngibhulula.’
3 Kindala ngakudyondo, bhana o ngolokela ku mundu, wa ambela: ‘Woso wala ni wôma, wa muteketa, avutuke kubhata.’” Kyenyiki, Ngidiyone wabhana o ngolokela phala kusandula oso exile ni wôma. Mukiki-phe, makwinyi ayadi ni kiyadi kya masoladi avutuka kubhata. Dikwinyi dya midi dyaxala ni mwene.
4 Kyenyiki, Jihova wambela Ngidiyone, wixi: “O mayala ala n’eye avulu hanji, ambata-wu kate bhwala o menya, bhenyobho nganda ku atela polova. Kyoso ki nganda zwela: ‘Yu wandaya n’eye,’ mwene wandaya n’eye. Maji kyoso ki nganda zwela: ‘yu kandaya n’eye’, mwene kandaya n’eye.”
5 Mwene wambata o mundu kate bhwexile o menya.
Jihova wambela Ngidiyone, wixi: “Oso yó anwa o menya kala kinwa o imbwa, u asandula mwaxaxi ka yó anda fukama phala kunwa o menya.”
6 O yó anu o menya ni maku, atenesa hama jitatu ja mayala. O mayala amukwa, afukama mu kunwa o menya.
7 Jihova wambela Ngidiyone, wixi: “Nganda mibhulula ni hama jitatu ja mayala anu o menya ni maku, anga ngibhakula Midiyana bhu maku enu. Kyenyiki, o mayala amukwa avuteke kubhata.”
8 Kyoso kyazubha kutambula o makudya ni jikoloneta ku mundu, mwene watumu o masoladi amukwa kuvutuka ku mabhata mâ. Waxala ngo ni hama jitatu ja mayala. O jibalaka ja akwa Midiyana jexile mu honga, ku lwiji dyâ.
9 Mu usuku wenyo, Jihova wa mwambela, wixi: “Balumuka, ndé ubhânge ni akwa Midiyana, kuma nga abhakula bhu maku mé.
10 Maji se wala ni wôma wa kubhânga nawu, kulumuka kate ku jibalaka jâ ni mukwatekexi wé Pula.
11 Ivwa yoso ya muzwela ene, mukusuluka wanda kala ni kuswina* phala kubhânga nawu.” Mukonda dyakiki, Ngidiyone ni mukwatexi wé Pula, akulumuka kate bhwa zukama o jibalaka ja kifuxi kya masoladi.
12 O akwa Midiyana ni akwa Amaleke ni athu oso atungile ku mbandu kutundila o dikumbi, ezalesa o honga kala kihoho, o jikamelu jâ katenene kujikondala. Javudile kala o museke ku mbandu a musanza wa kalunga.
13 Kyoso Ngidiyone kyabhixila, kwexile diyala wexile mutangela o nzoji yê kwa mukwa. Mwene wexile muzwela: “Yiyi yene o nzoji ingaloto. Ngamono mbolo ya sevada i iza ni kubolomoka kate mu balaka ya akwa Midiyana, yatula ni nguzu yavulu ku balaka, o balaka anga ibwa. O mbandu yakexile bhoxi, ikala bhulu, o mbandu yakexile bhulu, ikala bhoxi.”
14 Kyenyiki, o mukwa wa mwambela: “Yiyi nange o xibhata ya Ngidiyone mon’a Jowáji, o mukwa Izalayele. Nzambi wabhakula akwa Midiyana ni jibalaka joso, bhu maku mê.”
15 Kyoso Ngidiyone kyevu o nzoji ni dilombolwelu dyé, wafukama phala kubheza Nzambi. Mukusuluka, wavutuka mu balaka ya akwa Izalayele, yu wambe: “Balumukenu, kuma Jihova wabhakula akwa Midiyana bhu maku metu.”
16 Kyenyiki, mwene wa wane o hama jitatu ja mayala mu ibuka itatu, yu wa abhana jikoloneta ni masanga a makota exile ni makongolo moxi.
17 Yu wa ambela wixi: “Ngitalyenu, anga mubhanga kala ki nganda bhanga eme. Kyoso ki nganda bhixila, enu mwatokala kubhanga kala ki nganda bhanga.
18 Kyoso eme ni athu oso ala n’eme ki twanda xika o jikoloneta, enu wenu xikenu o jikoloneta mu jimbandu joso ja balaka anga mu dikola: ‘O ita ya Jihova ni ya Ngidiyone!’”
19 Ngidiyone ni hama a mayala exile-nê kumoxi, abhixila bhwa zukama o jibalaka mu dimatekenu dya kilangidilu kya kayadi kya usuku* kyoso o alangidi kyabhingana akwa. Axiki o jikoloneta, ya abulu o masanga amakota exile bhu maku mâ.
20 Kyenyiki, o ibuka itatu yaxiki o jikoloneta ya abulu o masanga amakota. Akwata o makongolo a tubhya ni lukwaku lwa kyasu, ya axiki o jikoloneta jakwatele bhu lukwaku lwa kadilu, anga adikola: “O xibhata ya Jihova ni ya Ngidiyone!”
21 Kala diyala wemana bhu kididi kyê mu jimbandu ja balaka, o kifuxi kyoso kya masoladi kya jinguma jâ, amateka o kulenga ni kudikola.
22 Kyoso o hama jitatu ja mayala kyexile muxika o jikoloneta, Jihova wabhangesa kwila o kifuxi kyoso kya akwa Midiyana kikala mudixuka jixibhata mudyâ mu jibalaka. O jinguma jalenge kate ku Bete-Xita, aya ku Zelela anga abhixila ku Abele-Mehola bhwa zukama ni Tabate.
23 Mwene wexana mayala akwa Izalayele, akwa Nafitali ni akwa Azele ni akwa Manasa, ene anga akaya akwa Midiyana.
24 Ngidiyone watumikisa akunji mu jimbanza joso ku milundu ya Efalayíme, mu kwamba: “Tulukenu phala kubhânga ni akwa Midiyana. Xitenu o jinjila joso ja kuzawukila tunde ku Bete-Bala ndu ku Njolodá.” Kyenyiki, abhongolola o mayala oso akwa Efalayíme, ya axiti o jinjila joso ja kuzawukila tunde ku Bete-Bala kate ku Njolodá.
25 Ene we akwata Olebe ni Ziyebe o ilamba iyadi ya akwa Midiyana. Olebe a mujibha ku ndanji ya Olebe, o Ziyebe a mujibha mu kididi kya kukamena o vinyu ya Ziyebe. Asuluka ni kukaya akwa Midiyana ya ambata o mútwe wa Olebe ni mútwe wa Ziyebe kwa Ngidiyone ku Njolodá.
