Abimelek

1Abimelek wuod Jerub-Baal nodhi ir owete gi min-gi man Shekem mowuoyo gi owete gi min-gi kod jo-dhood gi min mare duto, kowachonegi niya, 2“Penj jo-Shekem duto ni, ‘Ere gima ber: bedo gi yawuot Jerub-Baal piero abiriyo kaka jotendu, koso bedo e bwo loch ngʼato achiel?’ Ngʼeuru malongʼo ni an rembu.”

3Kane owetene owachone jo-Shekem wechegi duto, to negiramo ni koro nyaka gilu Abimelek, nimar negiwacho niya, “En owadwa.” 4Negimiye shekel piero abiriyo mag fedha koa e hekalu mar Baal-Berith, mi Abimelek ongʼiewogo jomoko macheje kod jo-mahundu mane oluwe. 5Nodhi e dala wuon mare man Ofra kendo nonego owetene piero abiriyo, ma gin yawuot Jerub-Baal ewi lwanda achiel. To Jotham, ma wuod Jerub-Baal ma chogo, nopondo motony. 6Bangʼe jo-Shekem kod Beth Milo nochokore e bath yien maduongʼ mantie ewi Shekem mondo oket Abimelek kaka ruoth.

7Kane onyis Jotham wachni, nodhi ewi Got Gerizim kendo nokok kowachonegi niya, “Winjauru, un jo-Shekem, mondo omi Nyasaye owinju. 8Chiengʼ moro achiel yiende nowuok mondo oyier ruodhgi. Negiwachone yadh zeituni ni, ‘Bed ruodhwa.’

9“To yadh zeituni nodwoko niya, ‘Ere kaka dawe mo miyudo kuom olembena kendo mitiyogo kuom miyo nyiseche kod ji duongʼ mondo abed ruodhu?’

10“Bangʼ mano, yiende nowachone ngʼowu ni, ‘Bi mondo ibed ruodhwa.’

11“To ngʼowu nodwoko ni, ‘Ere kaka dawe olembena mabeyo kendo mamit mondo abed ruodh yiende?’

12“Eka yiende nowachone mzabibu ni, ‘Bi mondo ibed ruodhwa.’

13“To mzabibu nodwoko ni, ‘Ere kaka dawe divai mara mamiyo nyiseche kod ji mor mondo abed ruodh yiende?’

14“Mogik yiende duto nowachone kudho ni, ‘Bi mondo ibed ruodhwa.’

15“Kudho nowachone yiende ni, ‘Ka adiera udwaro keta ruoth, to biuru kendo upond e tipona; ka ok kamano, to we mach owuog oa e kudho kendo owangʼ sida mag Lebanon!’

16“Ka uparo ni usetimo gima kare kendo mowinjore kuom keto Abimelek ruoth, bende ni usetimo maber ne Jerub-Baal kod joode, kendo usetimone gima romre gi timne, 17ka uparo kaka wuonwa nokedonu, kochiwo ngimane mondo oresu e lwet jo-Midian; 18to kawuononi osengʼanyo ni jood wuora, munego yawuote piero abiriyo ewi lwanda achiel, kendo uketo Abimelek, mane wuod jatichne ma nyako mobedo ruoth ewi jo-Shekem nikech en owadu. 19Ka uparo ni kawuononi usetimo gima kare kendo mowinjore ni Jerub-Baal kod joode, to mad Abimelek bed mamor kodu kendo un bende ubed mamor kode! 20To ka ok utimo kamano, to mad mach wuog kuom Abimelek mi wangʼu duto, un jo-Shekem kod Beth Milo, kendo mach mondo owuog kuomu mi owangʼ Abimelek!”

21Eka Jotham noringo odhi Beer, kendo nodak kanyo nikech noluoro Abimelek owadgi.

22Kane Abimelek osebedo ruodh Israel kuom higni adek, 23Nyasaye noketo chuny marach e kind Abimelek kod jo-Shekem mi gidhawo kode kendo gingʼanyone. 24Nyasaye notimo ma mondo mahundu mane otimne yawuot Jerub-Baal piero abiriyo, kichwero rembgi, mondo ochul ewi Abimelek owadgi kendo ewi jo-Shekem, mane okonye nego owetene. 25Kuom mano, jo-Shekem noketo ji ewi gode mondo omonje kendo omaa ngʼato angʼata mane okalo machiegni, kendo wachni noterne Abimelek.

26Koro noyudo ka Gaal wuod Ebed nodar gi owetene odhi Shekem, kendo jopinyno noketo yie margi kuome. 27Bangʼ kane gisedhi e puothe kendo gipono mzabibu mi gikelogi kuonde bicho, negitimo nyasi e hekalu mar nyasachgi. E sa mane gichiemo kendo metho, ne gikwongʼo Abimelek. 28Eka Gaal wuod Ebed nowacho niya, “Abimelek to en ngʼa, kendo Shekem bende en ngʼa, manyaka wabed e bwo lochne? Donge en wuod Jerub-Baal, to jalupne donge en Zebul? Tiuru ne jo-Hamor, ma wuon Shekem! Koro ere gima omiyo dwatine Abimelek? 29Ka dine gibed e bwo lochna, to dine atieke, kendo dine awachone Abimelek ni, ‘Kel jolwenji duto mondo akedgo!’ ”

30Kane Zebul ma jatend dala maduongʼno nowinjo gima Gaal wuod Ebed owacho, iye nowangʼ ahinya. 31Nooro joote ir Abimelek, mowacho niya, “Gaal wuod Ebed kod owetena osebiro Shekem kendo gidwaro mondo dala maduongʼ omonji. 32Omiyo koro kaw jogi gotieno mondo upond e bungu kuritogi. 33Ka chiengʼ wuok gokinyi, to suduru machiegni gi dala maduongʼ, mondo ka Gaal gi joge wuok e dala maduongʼ mondo omonju, to timnegiuru gimoro amora ma unyalo timo.”

34Omiyo Abimelek kod jolweny mage duto nowuok gotieno, ne gipogore e migepe angʼwen mi gibuto mondo gimonj Shekem. 35Koro Gaal wuod Ebed nowuok oko kendo negichungʼ e dhoranga dala maduongʼ mana sa ma Abimelek gi jolweny mage nowuok e kuondegi mane giponde.

36Kane Gaal onenogi, nowachone Zebul niya, “Ne joma biro koa ewi gode!”

Zebul nodwoko niya, “Tipo mag gode ema bwogi ni ji.”

37To Gaal nowachone kendo niya, “Ne joma biro koa e dier piny, kendo oganda maduongʼ biro koa yo koma opidhie yadh ajwoga.”

38Eka Zebul nowachone niya, “Ere thoro wach maru koro, un mane uwacho ni, ‘Abimelek en ngʼa manyaka wabed mana e bwo lochne?’ Donge magi e joma ne ichayo? Koro wuoguru mondo uked kodgi!”

39Omiyo Gaal notelo ne jo-Shekem kendo mi gikedo gi Abimelek. 40Abimelek nolawe, kendo ji mane ohinyore kanyo ne ngʼeny mochopo nyaka e dhorangach. 41Abimelek nodongʼ Aruma, kendo Zebul noriembo Gaal kod owetene oko mar Shekem.

42Kinyne jo-Shekem nowuok oko kama oyangore kendo ne gikone Abimelek wachni. 43Omiyo nogolo joge, mi opogogi e migepe adek kendo nochako kedo kodgi. Kane oneno ji ka wuok e dala maduongʼ, ne owuok mondo oked kodgi. 44Abimelek kod kanyakla mane ni kode noreto kochiko kamoro e dhoranga dala maduongʼ. Eka migepe ariyo noreto odhi ir ji duto mane ni e pewe mine ginegogi duto. 45Odiechiengno duto Abimelek nokedo matek gi dala maduongʼ manyaka okawe kendo onego joma nodak e iye. Eka noketho dalano kendo nokworo chumbi kuome duto.

46Kane ji owinjo wachno, joma nodak kama oger motingʼore gi malo mar Shekem nodhi kama oger motegno mar hekalu mar El-Berith. 47Kane Abimelek owinjo nine gisechokore kanyo, 48en kaachiel gi joge duto negidhi e Got Zalmon. Abimelek nokawo le mi otongʼogo bad yath moro, mi notingʼe e goke. Nochiwo chik ne joma nenikode niya, “Uneno gima atimoni! Timuru kamano piyo!” 49Omiyo jogo duto notongʼo bede yath mi giluwo bangʼ Abimelek. Negichano yiendego e kor ot mar hekaluno gi oko eka ne gimoko mach kuom ji ei dalano. Omiyo ji duto mane nitiere kama oger motingʼore gi malo mar Shekem notho, chwo kod mon madirom ji alufu achiel.

50Bangʼ mano, Abimelek nodhi Thebez mine olwore kendo omonje. 51Kata kamano, ei dala maduongʼno, ne nitie kama oger motegno motingʼore gi malo, kendo ji duto, chwo gi mon nodhi mopondo kanyo. Ne gilorore e iye mi giidho ewi kama oger motegnono. 52Abimelek nodhi e kama oger motegnono mondo omi omonje. To kane ochopo machiegni gi dhoranga kama oger motegnono mondo omokie mach, 53to dhako moro nolwaro kidi maduongʼ mar nyapongʼ ewi Abimelek mi obarore.

54Noluongo jatingʼne gik lweny mapiyo mowachone niya, “Wuodh liganglani kendo inega, mondo kik giwach ni, ‘Dhako ema nonege.’ ” Omiyo jatichne nowuodho ligangla mochwowego kendo otho. 55Kane jo-Israel oneno ka Abimelek otho, ne giwuok mi gidok e miechgi.

56Omiyo Nyasaye nokumo Abimelek kuom timbe mamono mane otimo ne wuon mare kuom nego owetene piero abiriyo. 57Nyasaye nokumo bende jo-Shekem kuom timbegi mamono. Kwongʼ mane Jotham wuod Jerub-Baal okwongʼogigo nochopo kare.
