Abafilisiti basubiza Ubushyinguro bw’Imana muri Israheli

¹ Ubushyinguro bw’Uhoraho bumara amezi arindwi mu gihugu cy’Abafilisiti.

² Bukeye, Abafilisiti bahamagara abaherezabitambo n’abapfumu, barababaza bati «Tugenze dute Ubushyinguro bw’Uhoraho? Mutwereke uko twabigenza, kugira ngo tubusubize iyo bwari buri.»

³ Barabasubiza bati «Niba musubijeyo Ubushyinguro bw’Imana ya Israheli; ntimubwohereze bwonyine, ahubwo mugerekeho n’amaturo y’impongano. Muzaboneraho kurokoka kandi munamenye impamvu ikiganza cy’Imana gikomeza kubamerera nabi.»

⁴ Baravuga bati «Ni mpongano ki tugomba kuyitura?» Barabasubiza bati «Muture ibibyimba bitanu bishushanyije muri zahabu n’imbeba eshanu zikozwe muri zahabu, mukurikije uko umubare w’abatware b’Abafilisiti ungana, kuko ari icyago musangiye mwese n’abatware banyu.

⁵ Muzakore rero ibishushanyo by’ibibyimba byanyu, n’iby’imbeba zayogoje igihugu cyanyu, kandi mukuze Imana ya Israheli. Bishobotse, yazunamura ikiganza cyayo kuri mwe, ku mana zanyu no ku gihugu cyanyu.

⁶ Bimaze iki kunangira umutima wanyu nk’Abanyamisiri na Farawo? Imana imaze kubabuza uburyo se, ntibabarekuye bakagenda?

⁷ Nimukore rero igare rishya, mufate inka ebyiri zonsa kandi zitigeze zikorera umutwaro. Muzikureho izazo muzisubize mu kiraro, maze muzihambireho iryo gare.

⁸ Muzafate kandi Ubushyinguro bw’Uhoraho mubushyire kuri iryo gare, naho bya bintu bya zahabu mwoherejeho amaturo y’impongano, mubishyire mu gasanduku mugatereke iruhande rw’Ubushyinguro bw’Uhoraho, maze mubureke bugende.

⁹ Nuko muzitegereze: nibuzamuka bwerekeje i Betishemeshi, bugana mu gihugu cye, tuzamenyeraho ko ari Uhoraho ubwe waduteye icyago kingana gitya. Nibitaba bityo, tuzamenyeraho ko atari ikiganza cye cyaduteye, ahubwo ko ari impanuka yatugwiririye.»

¹⁰ Nuko babigenza batyo: bafata inka ebyiri zonsa, bazihambiraho igare kandi basubiza inyana zazo mu kiraro.

¹¹ Bashyira Ubushyinguro bw’Uhoraho kuri rya gare, hamwe n’agasanduku karimo za mbeba zikozwe muri zahabu n’ibishushanyo by’ibibyimba byabo.

¹² Nuko izo nka ziboneza inzira yose igana i Betishemeshi, zigenda zabira nta gukebuka iburyo cyangwa ibumoso. Abatware b’Abafilisiti barazishorera kugera ku rugabano rwa Betishemeshi.

Ubushyinguro bugera i Betishemeshi

¹⁴ Nuko igare rigeze mu murima wa Yozuwe i Betishemeshi rirahagarara. Aho hantu hari ibuye rinini cyane. Baherako basatura imbaho zikoze rya gare, maze za nka bazitura Uhoraho ho igitambo.

¹⁵ Abalevi bari bamanuye Ubushyinguro bw’Uhoraho, hamwe n’agasanduku karimo bya bintu bya zahabu kari kumwe na bwo, babishyira hejuru ya rya buye rinini. Nuko uwo munsi, abantu b’i Betishemeshi bahaturira Uhoraho ibitambo by’amoko yose.

¹⁶ Maze ba batware batanu b’Abafilisiti bamaze kubibona, bagaruka i Ekironi uwo munsi.

¹⁷ Ngibyo ibibyimba bya zahabu Abafilisiti bahaye Uhoraho ho amaturo y’impongano: kimwe cyari icya Ashidodi, ikindi cya Gaza, ikindi cya Ashikeloni, ikindi cya Gati, n’ikindi cya Ekironi.

¹⁸ Kandi bamuhaye n’imbeba zikozwe muri zahabu, zingana n’umubare w’imigi abo batware batanu b’Abafilisiti bategekaga, kuva ku mugi uzitiwe kugeza ku rusisiro rutazitiwe. Gihamya y’ibyo iracyariho na n’ubu: ni rya buye rinini, aho bashyize Ubushyinguro bw’Uhoraho, ricyiri muri uwo murima wa Yozuwe i Betishemeshi.

¹⁹ Nyamara, mu bantu b’i Betishemeshi, bene Yekonyahu ntibari bishimye igihe Ubushyinguro bw’Uhoraho buje, maze Uhoraho abicamo abantu mirongo irindwi. Nuko rubanda rwose birabashavuza, kuko Uhoraho yabahannye bikomeye.

²¹ Nuko bohereza intumwa i Kiriyati‐Yeyarimu kuvuga, bati «Abafilisiti bagaruye Ubushyinguro bw’Uhoraho. Nimumanuke mubujyane iwanyu.»
