16 Musangu mukuabu Shimishona wakaya ku Gaza, yeye kumonaku mukaji wa ndumba kampanda, kubuelaye kudiye.
2 Bakambila bena Gaza ne: “Shimishona mmulue munemu.” Nunku bakamujingila, kumualaminabu butuku bujima ku tshiibi tshia tshimenga. Bakashala talalaa butuku bujima, badiambila ne: “Padi panshi patoka, netumushipe.”
3 Kadi Shimishona wakashala mulale too ne mundankulu. Pashishe wakajuka mundankulu, kukuataye biibi bia tshiibi tshia tshimenga ne makunji abi abidi a mu nseke, kubijulaye ne mulonda watshi wa kutshiamakajaku. Yeye kubiteka pa makaya ende, kubandaye nabi ku mutu kua mukuna udi mutangilangane ne Hebelone.
4 Pashishe wakalua kunanga mukaji kampanda wa mu Tshibandabanda* tshia Soleka; dîna diende divua Delila.+
5 Nunku bakalenge ba bena Peleshete bakalua kudiye, kuambabu ne: “Mudingakaja*+ bua umanye tshidi tshimupesha makanda bungi nunku, ne mutudi mua kumupita bukole, kumusuika ne kumukokesha. Bua bualu ebu yonso wa kutudi neakupeshe bitupa 1 100 bia arjan.”
6 Pashishe Delila wakambila Shimishona ne: “Ngambila koku kudi bukole buudi nabu bungi nunku bufumina ne tshidibu mua kukusuika natshi bua kukukokesha.”
7 Shimishona wakamuambila ne: “Bobu bansuike ne mionji mibishi muanda mutekete itubu basuika ku buta bua mikete* idibu kabayi banji kumisha, nentekete meme kulua anu bu muntu yonso eu.”
8 Nunku bakalenge ba bena Peleshete bakamutuadila mionji mibishi muanda mutekete itubu basuika ku buta bua mikete ivuabu kabayi banji kumisha, yeye kumusuika nayi.
9 Nunku bakalamina mu nzubu wa munda, yeye kumuela dîyi ne: “Shimishona, bena Peleshete mbobu abu!” Ke yeye kukosa mionji itubu basuika ku buta bua mikete ayi bipepele anu mutu buanda bua line bukoseka padibu bulenga kapia.+ Kabakamanya kuvua bukole buende bufumina to.
10 Nunku Delila wakambila Shimishona ne: “Mona! Udi muntatakaje,* mungambile malu a mafi. Mpindieu ngambila koku tshidibu mua kukusuika natshi.”
11 Ke yeye kumuambila ne: “Bobu bansuike ne mionji mipiamipia idibu kabayi banji kuenza nayi mudimu, nentekete meme kulua anu bu muntu yonso eu.”
12 Nunku Delila wakangata mionji mipiamipia, kumusuikaye nayi, kuelaye dîyi ne: “Shimishona, bena Peleshete mbobu abu!” (Pine apu bavua balamine mu nzubu wa munda.) Ke yeye kuyitula ku maboko ende anu bu manda.+
13 Pashishe Delila wakambila Shimishona ne: “Too ne mpindieu udi muntatakaje, mungambile malu a mafi.+ Ngambila tshidibu mua kukusuika natshi.” Ke yeye kumuambila ne: “Anu wewe mutele bisuki muanda mutekete bia ku mutu kuanyi ne manda a mu bule adi ku tshiamu tshia kuluka natshi bilamba.”
14 Nunku wakabikuatakaja ne lusambu, yeye kumuela dîyi ne: “Shimishona, bena Peleshete mbobu abu!” Ke yeye kutabuluka ku tulu, kutulaye lusambu lua ku tshiamu tshia kuluka natshi bilamba alu ne manda atshi a mu bule.
15 Ke yeye kumuambila ne: “Mmunyi muudi mua kuamba ne: ‘Ndi mukunange,’+ padi muoyo webe kawuyi kundi? Udi muntatakaje misangu eyi isatu ne kuena mungambile kudi bukole buudi nabu bungi nunku bufumina to.”+
16 Bu muvuaye anu umuela mutoyi dituku dionso ne umutondesha, yeye* wakapungila wamba kufua.+
17 Nunku ndekelu wa bionso wakamunzuluila muoyo wende, wamba ne: “Kapaya kakatu kanji kulenga ku mutu kuanyi to, bualu ndi Munazi wa Nzambi katshia bandela.*+ Bobu bankungule nsuki, bukole buanyi nebumbuke kundi, nentekete meme kulua bu bantu bakuabu bonso aba.”
18 Pakamona Delila ne: uvua mumunzuluile muoyo wende, diakamue wakabikidisha bakalenge ba bena Peleshete,+ wamba ne: “Bandayi musangu eu, bualu mmungunzuluile muoyo wende.” Nunku bakalenge ba bena Peleshete bakabanda kudiye ne makuta.
19 Wakamuladika tulu pa binu biende; pashishe wakabikila muntu, yeye kumukunguisha bisuki muanda mutekete bia ku mutu kuende. Pashishe wakatuadija kumukokesha, bualu bukole buende buvua buenda bumbuka kudiye.
20 Ke kuelaye dîyi ne: “Shimishona, bena Peleshete mbobu abu!” Wakatabuluka ku tulu, kuambaye ne: “Nempatuke anu bu misangu mikuabu+ ne nendisungile.” Kadi kavua mumanye ne: Yehowa ukavua mumulekele to.
21 Nunku bena Peleshete bakamukuata, bobu kumutonkona mêsu. Pashishe bakapueka nende ku Gaza, kumusuikabu ne nkanu ibidi ya tshiamu tshia mitaku, yeye kulua mupedi wa ntete mu buloko.
22 Kadi nsuki ya ku mutu kuende yakatuadija kutoloka kabidi panyima pa bamane kumukungulayi.+
23 Bakalenge ba bena Peleshete bakadisangisha kaba kamue bua kulambula nzambi wabu Dagona+ mulambu munene ne kusanka, bualu bavua bamba ne: “Nzambi wetu mmufile Shimishona muena lukuna wetu mu tshianza tshietu!”
24 Pakamumona bantu, bakatumbisha nzambi wabu, kuambabu ne: “Nzambi wetu mmufile muena lukuna wetu mu tshianza tshietu, muntu uvua munyange buloba buetu+ ne mushipe ba bungi ba kutudi.”+
25 Bu muvuabu ne disanka ku muoyo, bakamba ne: “Bikidishayi Shimishona bua alue kutusekeshaku.” Nunku bakabikidisha Shimishona mu buloko bua kuluaye kubasekesha; bakamuimanyika pankatshi pa makunji.
26 Pashishe Shimishona wakambila muana wa balume uvua mumukuate ku tshianza ne: “Enza ndenge makunji adi makuate nzubu eu bua ngeyemenaku.”
27 (Mpindieu nzubu au uvua muwule ne bantu balume ne bantu bakaji. Bakalenge ba bena Peleshete bonso bavuamu, ne pa mutu pa nzubu pavua bantu balume ne bantu bakaji batue ku 3 000 bavua batangila pavua Shimishona usekesha bantu.)
28 Ke Shimishona+ kuelaye dîyi kudi Yehowa ne: “Mukalenge Mutambe Bunene Yehowa, mvuluka koku ne mpesha koku bukole,+ anu bua musangu eu Nzambi wanyi, ne enza bua ndisombuele kudi bena Peleshete bua dimue dia ku mêsu anyi abidi.”+
29 Pashishe Shimishona wakatshintamena ku makunji abidi a munkatshi avua makuate nzubu, yeye kueyemenaku ne tshianza tshiende tshia dia balume ku dikunji dimue ne tshianza tshiende tshia dia bakaji ku dikuabu.
30 Shimishona wakela dîyi ne: “Mfue* ne bena Peleshete!” Pashishe wakasakila makunji ne bukole buende buonso, nzubu kupukilaye bakalenge ne bantu bonso bavuamu.+ Nunku bungi bua bantu bavuaye mushipe pakafuaye buvua bupite bua bavuaye mushipe pavuaye ne muoyo.+
31 Pashishe bana babu ba balume ne dîku dijima dia tatuende bakapueka bua kumuangata. Bakabanda nende, bobu kumujiika pankatshi pa Solea+ ne Eshetaola mu lukita lua tatuende Manoa.+ Uvua mulumbuluishe Isalele bidimu 20.+
