Ko ase Isariyɛlɛ wakalɔmbɛ Jehowa ekimanyielo.+

7 Lam’akalɔmbɛ ase Isariyɛlɛ Jehowa ekimanyielo l’ɔtɛ w’ase Midiyana,+ 8 Jehowa akatomɛ ase Isariyɛlɛ omvutshi wakawatɛ ate: “Jehowa Nzambi k’Isariyɛlɛ kata ate: ‘Dimi lakanyotondja oma l’Edjibito ndo lakanyotondja oma lo luudu la lɔhɔmbɔ.+ 9 Ɔnkɔnɛ, dimi lakanyotshungola oma lo anya w’ase Edjibito ndo oma le wanɛ tshɛ wakanyɔhɛnyahɛnyaka ndo lakawatshanya oma la ntondo kanyu, ko lakanyosha wodja awɔ.+ 10 Ndo lakanyotɛ nte: “Dimi kele Jehowa Nzambi kanyu.+ Tanyokake tozambizambi t’ase Amɔra tele lo wodja wodjashinyu wɔma.”+ Koko nyu kokitanyiyami.’”*+

11 L’ɔkɔngɔ wa laasɔ, ondjelo wa Jehowa akaye+ ko akayodjasɛ l’ɛse k’osongo wa woke waki la Ofara, osongo waki Jɔashi ose Abiɛzɛrɛ.+ Ɔnande Ngidiyɔna+ akasusolaka eponga lo dihole diamulawɔ vinyɔ dia nde mbashɛ diaha ase Midiyana mɛna. 12 Ondjelo wa Jehowa akɛnama le nde, ko akate ate: “Jehowa ekɔ kaamɛ la yɛ,+ wɛ ɔndɔshi wa ta wa wolo.” 13 Ko Ngidiyɔna akawotɛ ate: “Onkimwe yema nkumɛmi. Naka Jehowa ekɔ kaamɛ la so, lande na kambotokomɛ akambo anɛ tshɛ?+ Lende ele akambo ande tshɛ wa diambo wakatɔkɔndɔlɛ washɛso,+ wata vate: ‘Shi Jehowa akatotondja oma l’Edjibito?’+ Wonya ɔnɛ, Jehowa ambotokalɛ+ ndo ambotokimɔ lo anya w’ase Midiyana.” 14 Jehowa akakadimɔ otsha le nde, ko akate ate: “Tshɔka la wolo wele la yɛ, ko wɛ ayoshimbɛ ase Isariyɛlɛ oma lo anya w’ase Midiyana.+ Shi dimi kakotoma?” 15 Ngidiyɔna akookadimola ate: “Jehowa le, onkimwe. Ngande wakokami nshimbɛ Isariyɛlɛ? Ohenda! Nkumbo* kami koleki tshitshɛ laka aseka Manase ndo dimi koleki onto l’anyanya lo luudu la papa.” 16 Koko Jehowa akawotɛ ate: “Lam’ele dimi layonga kaamɛ la yɛ,+ wɛ ayodiaka ase Midiyana wate kana oko vɔ wekɔ onto 1.”

17 Ko nde akawotɛ ate: “Naka lambohomɔ lokolo l’ɔlɔ lo washo ayɛ, ɔmɛnya djembetelo mɔtshi yɛnya dia wɛ kasawola la mi. 18 Lam’alangayɛ, tomɔke oma lanɛ polo lam’ayomokalola la woshasha ami kele ndjowokitsha la ntondo kayɛ.”+ Ko nde akate ate: “Dimi layotshikala lanɛ polo lam’ayoyokalola.” 19 Ko Ngidiyɔna akatshu ndo akatokatɛ ɔsɔngɔ wa mbudi ndo akasale mapa waha la wodoya la efa* 1 w’ofushi.+ Nde akadje nyama yakɔ lo saka ndo oshi lo mpoke. Oma laasɔ, nde akawela diangɔ diakɔ ko akookitshɛdiɔ l’ɛse k’osongo wa woke.

20 Ko ondjelo wa Nzambi ka mɛtɛ akawotɛ ate: “Ɔsa nyama la mapa waha la wodoya kele kitsha lo dive dia woke diele lengo ndo tɛ oshi.” Ko nde akasale ngasɔ. 21 Oma laasɔ, ondjelo wa Jehowa akasembola shɔdi ya danga diaki lo lonya lande, ko akasakanya nyama la mapa akɔ waha la wodoya, ko dja yakatowɔ oma lo ave ndo yakatshumbe nyama la mapa akɔ waha la wodoya.+ Oma laasɔ, ondjelo wa Jehowa akashishɔ oma lo washo ande. 22 Ko Ngidiyɔna akashikikɛ dia ɔsɔ aki ondjelo wa Jehowa.+

Ngidiyɔna akate ate: “Hayii, Nkum’Olongo Nkumadiɔndjɔ Jehowa, dimi lambɛnana la ondjelo wa Jehowa elungi l’elungi!”+ 23 Koko Jehowa akawotɛ ate: “Wɔladi wayale la yɛ. Tokake wɔma,+ wɛ hatovɔ.” 24 Ko Ngidiyɔna akasale elambwelo laawɔ dikambo dia Jehowa ndo tɔ mbelamɛka ɔnɛ Jehowa-Shalɔma*+ polo ndo ɛlɔ. Tɔ kekɔ la Ofara w’ase Abiɛzɛrɛ.

25 L’otsho ɔsɔ, Jehowa akawotɛ ate: “Ɔsa ɔsɔngɔ wa ngɔmbɛ waki shɔ, ɔsɔngɔ wa ngɔmbɛ wa 2 wele l’ɛnɔnyi 7 ndo handjola elambwelo ka Baala kaki shɔ ndo hendjahendja kimɛta ka l’osongo* kele suke la tɔ.+ 26 L’ɔkɔngɔ wa wɛ nsala elambwelo dikambo dia Jehowa Nzambi kayɛ lo shɔdi ya longele lɔnɛ la ave wa lɔlɔnga, kɔshi ɔsɔngɔ wa ngɔmbɛ wa 2, ko wɛ mbolambola olambo wa lotshumba laadiko dia nkunyi y’oma lo kimɛta ka l’osongo* kayoyohendjahendja.” 27 Ko Ngidiyɔna akɔshi apami 10 l’atei w’ekambi ande ndo akasale oko wakawotɛ Jehowa. Koko nde akokaka ase luudu la she ndo apami wa l’osomba wɔma efula, diakɔ diele nde kosala dui sɔ la yanyi, koko akayodisala l’otsho.

28 Lam’akemɔ apami wa l’osomba akɔ la pindju ka pɛɛ, vɔ wakɛnyi dia elambwelo ka Baala kakahandjwe vwa ndo kimɛta ka l’osongo* kaki suke latɔ kakahendjahendjami ndo ɔsɔngɔ wa ngɔmbɛ wa 2 wakalambɔmi lo elambwelo kakawasadi. 29 Vɔ wakambɔna vate: “Akɔna akasadi nganɛ?” L’ɔkɔngɔ wa vɔ nsala eyangelo, vɔ wakate vate: “Ngidiyɔna ɔna Jɔashi kakasadi dikambo nɛ.” 30 Ɔnkɔnɛ, apami wa l’osomba wakatɛ Jɔashi vate: “Tondja ɔnayɛ dia nde mvɔ, nɛ dia nde akahandjodi elambwelo ka Baala ndo akahembodi kimɛta ka l’osongo* kaki suke la tɔ.” 31 Ko Jɔashi+ akatɛ wanɛ tshɛ waki la ntondo kande ate: “Onde nyu nangaka tɛkɛtɛ Baala? Onde nyolanga mboshimbɛ? Onto tshɛ lɔɔtɛkɛtɛ pombaka ndjakema la pindju kɛnɛ.+ Naka nde ekɔ nzambi, ayatɛkɛtɛ ndamɛ,+ nɛ dia onto ɔmɔtshi akahandjodi elambwelo kande.” 32 Ko lushi lɔsɔ nde akɔlɛ Ngidiyɔna ɔnɛ Jerubala,* ata ate: “Baala ayatɛkɛtɛ ndamɛ, nɛ dia onto ɔmɔtshi akahandjodi elambwelo kande.”

33 Ase Midiyana tshɛ,+ ase Amalɛka+ tshɛ ndo ase lɛkɛ l’ehotwelo ka wonya tshɛ wakasanganya asɔlayi awɔ,+ wakatehɔ* otsha l’Okidi* wa Jezɛrɛlɛ ko wakake mpango kawɔ. 34 Oma laasɔ, nyuma ka Jehowa kakaye le* Ngidiyɔna+ ko nde akade dimama,+ ko aseka Abiɛzɛrɛ+ wakete lo wedi ande. 35 Nde akatomɛ aseka Manase tshɛ akɛndji, ko vɔ lawɔ wakete lo wedi ande. Nde akatome ndo akɛndji otsha le aseka Ashɛrɛ, aseka Zebuluna ndo aseka Nafɛtali, ko vɔ wakaye dia ndjohomana la nde.

36 Oma laasɔ, Ngidiyɔna akatɛ Nzambi ka mɛtɛ ate: “Naka wɛ ayanga nshimbɛ Isariyɛlɛ lo tshimbo yami oko wakayalake,+ 37 dimi layanga mbala wɛɔsa lanɛ lo dihole di’esuswelo. Naka lɔpɔpɔ lambonga lo wɛɔsa akɔ eto ko nkɛtɛ tshɛ yodingi laawɔ monga ofumbo, kete layeya dia wɛ ayoshimbɛ Isariyɛlɛ lo tshimbo yami, oko wakayalake.” 38 Ko kɛsɔ mbakasalema.

Lam’alangayɛ, etawɔ dia dimi mpemba nto la wɛɔsa. Lam’alangayɛ, etawɔ dia wɛɔsa eto monga womu, ko lɔpɔpɔ ndɔya nkɛtɛ tshɛ yele laawɔ.” 40 Ko l’otsho ɔsɔ, Nzambi akasale ngasɔ. Paka wɛɔsa eto mbaki womu, koko nkɛtɛ tshɛ yakalɔwɛ la lɔpɔpɔ.
