Abafilistia okugarurayo eshanduukye ya Ruhanga
1Eshanduukye ya MUKAMA yaamara ameezi mushanju omu nsi y'Abafilistia.2Bwanyima Abafilistia baayeta abagirwa n'abafumu, baababuuza bati: Egi shanduukye ya MUKAMA tugigire tuta? Mutuhabure oku turaagigarureyo, tukagihitsya omu mwanya gwayo.3Baabagarukamu bati: Ku muraayohereze eshanduukye ya Ruhanga wa Israeli, mutagyohereza yonka; kureka mucwe obwengye bwona kugigarurayo n'empongano y'okwihaho orubanja. Obwo nibwo muraakire, kandi mukamanya ekizibiire omukono gwe kubarugaho.4Banu bagira bati: Ni mpongano ki ey'okwihaho orubanja ei turaamwoherereze? Baagarukamu bati: Ebizimba bitaano by'ezaabu, n'embeba itaano z'ezaabu, nk'omubaro gw'abategyeki b'Abafilistia oku gurikwingana; ahakuba imwe mwena n'abategyeki baanyu mukajuumikirwa orwo rufu.5N'ahabw'ekyo mushemereire kuheesha ebishushani by'ebizimba byanyu, n'eby'embeba ezirikushiisha ensi yaanyu; kandi muryaha Ruhanga wa Israeli ekitiinisa; obundi akaatuubya oburemeezi bw'omukono gwe ahariimwe, n'ahari baaruhanga baanyu, n'ahansi yaanyu.6Mbwenu shi nimugangaariza ki emitima, nk'Abanyamisri na Faraho oku baagangaize eyaabo? Obu yaakora eby'amahano omuribo, tibararekire abo bantu bakarugayo, bakagyenda?7N'ahabw'ekyo hati mureete ekigaari kisya, mukiboneze, n'ente ibiri ezirikwontsya, ezitakakururaga kintu, muzikomeho ekigaari, muzaakye enyana zaazo, muzigarure omuka;8bwanyima mutware eshanduukye ya MUKAMA, mugite aha kigaari, kandi n'ebintu by'ezaabu, ebi murikumwoherereza kuba empongano y'okwihaho orubanja, mubite omu kashanduukye aha rubaju rwayo; bwanyima mugyohereze, egyende.9Kandi mureebe ahu eraatoore; ku eraarabe ogurikuza aha mwatano gwayo, yaagyema Beti-shemeshi, nitwija kumanya ku MUKAMA niwe atureeteire aka kabi koona; kandi ku kiraabe kitabaire kityo, nabwo nitwija kumanya ku gutari mukono gwe ogwatwitsire; kureka ku kari akagwe akatugwereire.10Abo bashaija baatwaza batyo, baareeta ente ibiri zirikwontsya, baazikomaho ekigaari, enyana zaazo baazikingira omuka;11baata eshanduukye ya MUKAMA aha kigaari, baataho n'akashanduukye akarimu embeba eziheesire omu zaabu n'ebishushani by'ebizimba byabo.12Ezo nte zaatoora omuhanda ogurikucwekanisa niguza Beti-shemeshi, zaagumizamu omu muhanda rugyendwa nizijuga, tizaakiikama ha rubaju rwa buryo nari orwa bumosho; kandi abategyeki b'Abafilistia baagyenda bazikuratiire okuhika aha mwatano gwa Beti-shemeshi.13Eryo izooba aba Beti-shemeshi bakaba nibagyesha engano omu ruhita; ku baanagire amaisho, baareeba eshanduukye, baashemererwa munonga kugireeba.14Ekyo kigaari kyahika omu musiri gwa Yoshua owa Beti-shemeshi, kyayemerera aho, ahu eibaare rihango ryabaire riri; bwanyima baashatura embaaho z'ekyo kigaari, baatambira aho ezo nte kuba ekitambo ky'okwokyeza MUKAMA.15Abaleevi baihaho eshanduukye ya MUKAMA, n'akashanduukye akaabaire kari hamwe nayo, akarimu ebyo bintu by'ezaabu, baabita aha mutwe gw'eryo ibaare rihango; kandi eryo izooba aba Beti-shemeshi baatambira MUKAMA ebitambo by'okwotsya n'ebindi bitambo.16Abo bategyeki ku baaherize kubireeba, baagaruka Ekurooni eryo izooba.17Ebi nibyo bizimba by'ezaabu ebi Abafilistia baahongyeire MUKAMA kuba empongano y'okwihaho orubanja; kimwe aha bwa Ashidoodi, ekindi ahabwa Gaaza, ekindi ahabwa Ashikelooni, ekindi ahabwa Gaasi, n'ekindi ahabwa Ekurooni;18kandi n'embeba z'ezaabu, nk'omubaro gw'endembo zoona ez'Abafilistia, ezaabaire nizitwarwa abo bategyeki bataano, oku gwabaire guri, endembo ezeehinguririziibwe engo z'amabaare, n'ebirorero by'omu byaro. Kandi eryo ibaare rihango, eri baataireho eshanduukye ya MUKAMA aha rubaju omu musiri gwa Yoshua owa Beti-shemeshi, niryo kareebi n'okuhitsya hati.19Bwanyima MUKAMA yaita abantu ba Beti-shemeshi makumi mushanju, ahabw'okuringuriza omu shanduukye ya MUKAMA; abantu baacura munonga, ahabw'okuba MUKAMA akabaitamu abantu baingi.20Abashaija ba Beti-shemeshi baagira bati: N'oha orikubaasa kwemerera omu maisho ga MUKAMA, Ruhanga ogu orikwera? Kandi ku araaturugyeho, naaza ahari oha?21Batyo baatuma entumwa aha batwire Kiryasi-yearimu, nibagira bati: Abafilistia bagarwire eshanduukye ya MUKAMA.
