11 Ico ni co Yuda abibonye, aja kumusanganira, aramuhobera, aramwica; benshi bacika abishwe, mugabo abasigaye barahunga+.

12 Yuda atora iminyago yabo, n'inkota ya Apoloni na yo nyene, arwana n'ubuzima bwiwe bwose.

13 Seroni, umukuru w'abasoda b'i Siriya, yumva avuga yuko Yuda yari yakoraniye kuri we isinzi ry'abantu b'abizigirwa, kugira ngo baje ku rugamba+.

14 Avuga ati: "Nzoronka izina n'icubahiro mu bwami+; Kuko nzojana na Yuda n'abari kumwe na we, basuzugura ibwirizwa ry'umwami.

15 Nuko amutegurira kuduga+, hanyuma ajana n'ingabo nyinshi z'abatubaha Imana kugira ngo bamufashe, no kwiyegura abana b'Israyeli.

16 Ashitse hafi y'umuduga wa Betironi+, Yuda aja kumusanganira n'ikigo gitoyi+.

17Ni nde, babonye ingwati iza guhura na bo, ibaza Yuda iti: "Mbega, dushobora gute kuba bake gutyo, kugira ngo turwanye isinzi ry'abantu bangana gutyo kandi rirakomeye gutyo, kuko twiteguriye kwisonzesha uyu musi wose?

36 Kandi ngo ashira ba kavamahanga mu mihingo yabo yose+, agabane igihugu cabo+.

37 Maze umwami afata rero ica kabiri c'ingabo zasigaye hanyuma ava i Antiyokiya, igisagara ciwe c'umwami, mu mwaka w'ijana na mirongo ine n'indwi+. Amaze guca mu ruzi Efurate, aca mu bihugu bikirurutse.

38 Lysia atora Ptolemeyi mwene Dorymene, Nicari na Gorgiasi, abagabo b'inkomezi b'abakunzi b'umwami.

39 Arungikana na bo abagenda ku maguru ibihumbi mirongo ine n'abagendera ku mafarasi ibihumbi indwi, kugira ngo baje

mu gihugu ca Yuda no kurirandura nk'uko umwami yabitegetse.

40 Nuko bagenda n'ububasha bwabo bwose+ maze baraza, bashikirizwa na Emawusi mu gihugu co hagati.

41 Kandi abadandaza bo muri ico gihugu bumvise imenyekana ryavyo+, bafata ifeza n'inzahabu vyinshi n'inzahabu+ n'abasuku, bashika mw'ikambi kugura bene Isirayeli ngo baronke abashumba+; ububasha bwa Siriya n'igihugu c'Abafilisitiya bwifatanya na bo+.

42 Maze Yuda n'abavukanyi biwe babona yuko ivyago vyagwiriye be n'uko ingabo zikambira mu mipaka yazo+ kuko bazi neza ingene umwami yari yahaye itegeko ryo guhonya abantu, hanyuma zirazimanganya rwose+.

43 Baraheza baravugana bati: "Ingo tugarure itunga ry'abantu bacu ryatiwe, turwane ku bw'abantu bacu n'ahantu heranda+.

44 Maze ishengero rikoranira hamwe, kugira ngo bitegure kurwana+ no kugira ngo basenge, basabe imbabazi n'imbabazi+ n'ikibabarwe+.

45 Nayo Yeruzalemu iryamye ubusa nk'agahinga+,Nta n'umwe mu bana biwe yari yinjiye canke ngo asohoke+; ahantu heranda na ho nyene hahonyarutswe+, n'abanyamahanga baguma bashikamye+. 11) Yehova yarahase ivyabo muri ico kibanza; Akanyamuneza kava kuri Yakobo, umururumbo wari kumwe n'inanga urahera.

46 Nuko Abisirayeli bakoranira hamwe, bashika i Masfa+, batangura kurwanya Yeruzalemu+. Kuko i Maspha ari ho bari basengera mu gihugu ca Isirayeli.

47 Nuko kuri uwo musi bisonzesha, bambara amagunira, bashira umunyota ku mutwe, kandi bagura impuzu zabo+, 48 Maze bugurura igitabu c'itegeko+, aho nyen'umuriro yari yarondeye gushusha ishusho y'ibishusho vyabo+.

49 Bamuzanira n'impuzu z'abaherezi be n'imishuzo y'ivya mbere be n'ivy'icumi vy'icumi+ be n'ibigiracumi; n'Abahizi barasurura, bari baranguye imisi yabo+.

50 Maze basemerera n'ijwi rirenga rija mw'ijuru+ bati: "Mbega dukore iki kuri abo, kandi tuzobijanako iki?"

51 Kuko ahantu heranda hawe hakorotse, kandi abaherezi bawe bari mu kirumara+, bakajanwa hasi.

52 Nayo nyen'umuriro+ akoranira hamwe ngo adusenyure+;Ivyo biyumvira ku bidurumbanya+, wewe urabizi+.

53 None tuzoshobora gute kubarwanya atari wewe Mana, utabazi bwacu+?

54 Maze bavuza inzamba+,Batangura gusamiriza n'ijwi rirenga+.

55 Inyuma y'ivyo, Yuda ashinga rero abakuru b'abantu+, mbere n'abakuru b'ibihumbi+ n'abarenza amajana, n'abarenza mirongo itanu+ no hejuru y'abaharurwa mu mirongo mirongo.

56 Mugabo ku bw'ivyo, nk'ukwubaka amazu canke abagore bari batunzwe n'imizabibu canke bariko baratera imirima y'imizabibu, canke batekewe n'ubwoba, abo yategetse ngo bagaruke, umuntu wese mu nzu yiwe nk'uko itegeko ryabwirizwa+.

57 Nya kambi rero icika, ija mu bumanuko bwa Emawusi.

58 Yuda avuga ati: "Ni mwiyambure, mwiyambure, mwiyambure, mubone ko murushe mu gitondo, kugira ngo murwane n'aya mahanga, ari yo dukoraniye hamwe kugira ngo duhonye twebwe n'aheranda+ kacu.

59 Kuko twopfuma dupfa mu ntambara+, hako twitegereza ivyago vy'abantu bacu n'ahantu hacu h'aheranda+.

60 Ariko, nk'uko Imana igomba iri mw'ijuru, ni ko na yo ibikora+.

IKIGABANE CA 4 1 Maze bafata gorgiagi+, n'abagendera ku mafarasi igihumbi+, bano barakura mw'ikambi mw'ijoro+.

2 Amaherezo, yokwihutira kwirukira kw'ikambi y'Abayuda, hanyuma abashinyagiza bukwi na bukwi+. Kandi abantu b'igihome bari abayobora.

3 Yuda ngo yumve ko ari we ubwiwe, avanayo n'abagabo b'intwari, kugira ngo asasire ingabo z'umwami zari i Emawusi.

4Ariko inteko za gisirikare zari zashwiragiye hanze y'ikambi.

5 Mw'ijoro haza Gogiya+ mw'ikambi ya Yuda; ata n'umwe yasangayo, abarondera mu misozi, kuko yavuze ati: 'Aba bagabo baratuhunga.'

6 Mugabo haciye umusi, Yuda yishira mu gatumba ari kumwe n'abantu ibihumbi bitatu, mugabo ata n'inkota n'inkota bari bafise mu mitwe yabo+.

7 Maze babona ikambi y'ubushuhe+ y'ubushuhe, yuko yari ikomeye kandi yari iy'umushozi, kandi yari iy'inyesaku+ izunguruka n'abagendera ku mafarasi+. Bari abahinga mu bijanye n'intambara.

8 Maze Yuda abwira abantu bari kumwe na we ati: "Ntimutinye isinzi ryabo,Kandi ntimutinye igitero cabo.

9 Ibuka ingene ba sogokuruza bacu bashirijwe mu kiyaga Gitukura igihe Farawo yabakurikirana n'inteko za gisirikare+.

10 Ubu rero, ingo tuje mw'ijuru+, nimba yehova azotugirira imbabazi+, yongere abibutse isezerano rya ba sogokuruza bacu+, kandi turahonye iyi ngabo imbere y'amaso yacu uno musi+.

11 Kugira ngo ubushuhe bukaze bumenye ko hari uwurokora Isirayeli akongera agakiza+.

12 Maze ba kavamahanga bashira amaso, babona bariko barabarwanya+.

13 Kuko bavuye mw'ikambi baja ku rugamba+; Ariko abari kumwe na Yuda bavuza inzamba zabo.

14 Nuko bifatanije n'urugamba+ maze ubushuhe bucika intege buhungira mu kiyaya c'ibwiya+.

15 Mbega ukuntu abari inyuma muri bo bose bishwe n'inkota+, kuko babakurikiranye i Gazera no mu biyaya vya Idumeya+ na Azoto na Yaniya+, ku buryo abantu ibihumbi bitatu barishwe ku bantu ibihumbi bitatu+.

16 Ivyo birashitse, Yuda asubira inyuma hamwe n'ingabo ziwe, ngo abakurikirane+, 17 Maze abwira abantu ati: "Ntimube umwina w'isahu ry'isahu+ nk'uko hari intambara imbere yacu.

18 Kandi Gorgiayi+ n'ingabo ziwe bari hano ku musozi+; mugabo ubu rero muhagarare murwanye abansi bacu, mubatsinde+, hanyuma y'ivyo, muheze mutore iminyago+.

19 Yuda akivuga ayo majambo, hari agace kamwe muri two kaboneka ko kavuye ku musozi.

20 Ni nde babonye ko Abayuda bashize ingabo zabo mu kuguruka, bariko baraturira amahema+. Iyo nywere y'itabi yabonwa n'uwurikoze: 21Nuko bamaze kubona ivyo bintu, bagira ubwoba bwinshi, babona n'ingabo za Yuda mu gahinga biteguye kurwana.

22 Bahungira umwe wese mu gihugu c'abanyamahanga+.

23 Maze Yuda asubira gusahura ayo mahema, aho baronka inzahabu nyinshi n'ifeza n'iy'ubururu, n'agahama k'ikiyaga, be n'ubutunzi bwinshi.

24 Inyuma y'ivyo barataha+ baririmba ururirimbo rw'ugukenguruka+, batangura gushemeza Yehova mw'ijuru+, kuko ari vyiza+, kuko imbabazi ziwe zamaho ibihe bidahera+.

25 Nuko Israyeli ironka uburokozi bukomeye kuri uwo musi+.

26 Kandi ata kavamahanga bose bari bararokotse+ baraza, babwira Lysia ivyabaye.

27Ni nde yumvise ayo majambo, acika amamaramare, acika ivutu, kuko ata n'umwe yogiriye Isirayeli ibintu nk'ivyo, canke nk'uko umwami yari yamutegetse.

28 Nuko mu mwaka ukurikira, inyuma y'aho Lysiasi akoranira hamwe abagabo ibihumbi mirongo itanu n'ibihumbi mirongo itanu vy'amafarasi, kugira ngo abagoyagire.

29 Nuko bashika i Idumeya+ maze bashira amahema yabo i Betisura+ maze Yuda arabasanganira ari kumwe n'abagabo ibihumbi cumi+.

30 Abonye nya ngabo z'inkomezi, arasenga, avuga ati: "Ewe Mukiza wa Isirayeli hahezagirwe, wewe wakize ubukazi bw'umunyenkomezi biciye ku kuboko kw'umusavyi wawe Dawidi+, agaha ingabo z'abanyamahanga mu kuboko kwa Yonatani mwene Sauli n'uwumutwaza ibirwanisho+.

31 Shira mu kuboko kw'inteko za gisirikare mu kuboko kw'abantu bawe Isirayeli,Kandi niwumaramare kubera ububasha bwabo n'abagendera ku mafarasi+.

32 Nutume batagira umutima rugabo+, ushire ubutinyutsi bw'ingoga z'inkomezi zabo zo kugwa+, kandi nibareke gutikizwa kwabo+.

33 Terere hasi n'inkota y'abagukunda+,Kandi abo bose bazi izina ryawe nibagushemeze mu gukenguruka+.

34 Nuko baja ku rugamba+; Vyongeye, abishwe n'ingabo za Lysia nko ku bihumbi bitanu, mbere y'uko bicirwa.

35 Lysiasi abonye ingabo ziwe zishwe n'ukwihebura n'ukwihebera abayuda, n'ingene bari biteguye kubaho canke ngo bapfe bitwarire, aja muri Antiyokiya, akoraniriza hamwe umugwi w'abanyamahanga, amugira inteko za gisirikare zimuruta, ashingira umugambi wo gusubira kwinjira i Yudaya.

36 Maze Yuda na bene wabo bavuga bati: "Ehe abansi bacu bagoyagoya+; tuje guhumanurwa+ no kwegurira aheranda+.

37 Inyuma y'ivyo, inteko zose zikorana, ziduga ku musozi Siyoni+.

38 Maze babonye ahantu heranda h'umusaka+ n'igicaniro kitosekaza+, amarembo na yo atangura guturirwa, mu bisata vy'amasentare+ nka kurya kw'ishamba canke mu misozi imwe, egome, ivyumba vy'abaherezi na vyo biraheza bimanuka.

40 Maze yikubita hasi hasi mu maso, avuza inzamba+ n'ijwi ry'inzamba+, atangura gusemerera yerekeza mw'ijuru.

41 Yuda ashinga abagabo bamwe ngo barwanye abari mu gihome gikomeye, gushika aho ahumanuye ahera.

42 Nuko atora rero abaherezi ikiyago kitagira agasembwa, nk'uko bari bahimbawe n'itegeko+.

43 Uwahumanuye ahera+, akuraho nya mabuye ahumanye ahantu hahumanye+.

44 Mugabo igihe bariko baraganira ico bakwiye ku bijanye n'igicaniro c'amashikanwa aturirwa+ cari casewe+.

45 Biyumvira ko ari vyiza kuyimanura hasi, kugira ngo ntibibe iceyi kuri bo+, kuko ubushuhe bwari bwanduje+; kuko ubushuhe bwari bwabihumanije+ kuko bwari bwabukuye hasi+.

46 Maze bashira amabuye ku musozi w'urusengero ahantu horoshe+ gushika hazoza umuhanuzi kugira ngo ababwire ivyo bakwiye gukora+.

47 Nuko bafata amabuye yose nk'uko ivyagezwe vyategetswe+, bubaka igicaniro gishasha+ nk'uko vyahora+.

48 Maze aheranda n'ibiri mu rusengero, hanyuma bija mu bisentare bishirwe mu vy'amasentare+.

49 Na bo nyene barakoze n'ibikoresho bishasha vyeranda+, mu rusengero bazana igicaniro c'amashikanwa aturirwa+ be n'igicaniro c'imibavu be n'imeza+.

50 Maze ku gicaniro baturira imibavu+ n'amatara yari ku gicaniro, amatara yari kuri nya gicaniro baramurika, kugira ngo baboneke mu rusengero+.

51 Vyongeye, bashira nya mikate ku meza, bakwiragiza nya mivyitwikiro, barangiza ibikorwa vyose bari batanguye gukora+.

52 Maze ku musi ugira mirongo ibiri na kabiri w'ukwezi kugira icenda+ witwa nya kwezi kwa Caso, mu mwaka ijana na mirongo ine n'umunani+ bavyuka mu gitondo+ mu gitondo.

53 Maze bashikanira ikimazi nk'uko itegeko rishika kuri nya gicaniro gishasha c'amashikanwa aturirwa+.

54 Ehe rero umusi uwo mushatsi yari yarawuvunye+ n'umusi w'insago,+ mbere no muri wo wari ugenewe kuririmba indirimbo, n'ivyinogo be n'inanga be n'imvyino z'imirya+.

55 Maze abantu bose bagwa mu maso habo, bagasenga Imana yo mw'ijuru+ iba yarabahaye intsinzi nziza+.

56 Nuko rero batangura kwiyegurira igicaniro imisi umunani+ bongera bashikana amashikanwa aturirwa mu buryo buhimbaye+, bashikana ikimazi c'ugushikama n'ishemezo+.

57 Na bo nyene bashira imbere mu rusengero ibitsibo vy'inzahabu+ be n'inkinzo z'inkinzo+; N'amarembo n'ivyumba vy'uburembo bishasha, barabazimizako inzugi.

58 Ukwo ni ko vyari bimeze mu bantu harabaye umunezero mwinshi, kuko iceyi c'ubushozi bw'ubushuhe cazimijwe+.

59 Nayo Yuda na bene wabo hamwe n'ishengero ryose rya Isirayeli, barashinga rero ishengero ryose rya Isirayeli, kugira ngo imisi y'ukwihebera igicaniro igume mu gihe cabo c'umwaka ku mwaka, kuva ku musi ugira gatanu na mirongo ibiri w'ukwezi kwa Kayisa, n'umunezero n'umunezero+.

60 Muri ico gihe nyene, bubaka umusozi Siyoni n'impome zikirurutse be n'iminara ikomeye izunguruka, kugira ngo abanyamahanga ntibaze baze bayitembereze+ nk'uko bari barabigize kera+.

61 Maze bashinga ikirindiro co kugumya+, bongera bashinga i Betisura ibihome kugira ngo bayikize+. coba bantu aja deh..

IKIGABANE CA 5 1 Maze amahanga akikije yumva ko ico gicaniro cubatswe be n'aheranda gishasha nk'uko vyahora, kiraheza kirabababaza cane+.

2 Kuko biyumviriye guhonya iyaruka rya Yakobo ryari muri bo+, maze batangura kwica abantu no guhonya+.

3 Maze Yuda atangura kurwana na bene Ezawu i Idumeya i Arabatitine+ kubera ko basugereje Gael; hanyuma abaha ugutsinda gukomeye, bacika inkomezi zabo, ahitana iminyago yabo.+ 4 Vyongeye, yibuka n'ingene beni yagiriwe nabi+ na Beni+, kandi yari yagiriwe nabi abantu, kuko bari bagumye barindiriye mu nzira+.

5 Aca yugara rero mu minara, ararimbikako, arazitikiza rwose, aturira iminara y'ico kibanza umuriro n'iy'abariyo bose+.

6 Inyuma y'ivyo, ashika kuri bene Amoni+, ahasanga ububasha bukomeye, n'abantu benshi, kumwe na Timotheyo umukuru wabo.

7 Nuko arwana intambara nyinshi na bo, gushika igihe kirekire bacika intege imbere yiwe+. Kandi arabahevya.

8Amaze gufata Yazari n'ibisagara vyaho, asubira i Yudaya.

9 Maze ubushuhe+ bw'abari i Galatiya bakoranira hamwe kurwanya Abisirayeli bari mu bigwi vyabo, kugira ngo babatikize+. Ariko bahungira mu gihome gikomeye ca Dagthema.

10 Maze arungika amakete kuri Yuda be na bene wabo, ubushozi budukikiyeko, buduteranira kutugirira nabi+.

11 Kandi bariko bitegurira kuza, bafate igihome gikomeye aho twahungiye+, Timotheyo acika umukuru w'ingabo zabo+.

12 Nimuze rero, turokore mu maboko yabo+, kuko benshi muri twebwe bishwe+.

13 Egome, bene wacu bose bari mu bibanza vya Tobi+, abagore babo n'abana babo na bo nyene baratwaye imbohe+, kandi bivye ibintu vyabo+. Kandi aho ni ho bazotikiza abantu nk'igihumbi.

14Ariko ayo makete akiriko arasoma, ehe haje izindi ntumwa zivuye i Galilaya, n'impuzu zazo zigura, zamenyesheje abo bantu b'inkerebutsi.

15 Na bo bavuga bati: "Abo muri Ptomomayy 16 Yuda n'abantu bumvise ayo majambo, bakoranira hamwe ishengero rinini, kugira ngo bababwire ico babwirizwa gukorera bene wabo bari mu ngorane, maze babasambanya.

17 Maze Yuda abwira Simoni mwene wabo ati: "Tora abantu, ugende utange bene wanyu bari i Galilaya+ kuko jewe na Yonatani+ mwene wacu tugiye kuja mu gihugu c'i Galatiya+.

18 Nuko asiga Yozefu mwene Zekariya+ na Azariya, abakuru b'abantu, hamwe n'amasigarira y'ingabo i Yudaya, kugira ngo babigumizemwo+.

19 Uwo yatanze ibwirizwa, ati: "Niwakire ivyo aba bantu bashinzwe+ kandi urabe yuko mudatera kurwanya ubushuhe gushika igihe tuzosubira+.

20 Nuko gihabwa abantu ibihumbi bitatu ngo baje i Galilaya+ na Yuda abantu ibihumbi umunani+ kugira ngo baje mu gihugu c'i Galatiya+.

21 Maze ajana Na Simoni i Galilaya, aho yarwanije intambara nyinshi n'ubushuhe bwinshi, bituma uwo mupfumu acika intege+ na we.

22 Aca abakurikirana gushika kw'irembo rya Polemayy.

Abantu nka 3.000 baragandaguwe n'abantu nk'ibihumbi bitatu, imisahu yabo yatwara.

23 Nayo abari i Galilaya+ n'i Arubeti+ n'abagore babo n'abana babo n'abana babo n'ivyo bari bafise vyose, bajana na we, babajana i Yudaya banezerewe cane+.

24 Yuda Makabe na mwene wabo Yonatani bajabuka Yorodani, bagenda urugendo rw'imisi itatu mu gahinga.

25 Aho bahura na Nabati+ bari baje kubaremesha, bababwira ibintu vyose vyari vyashikiye bene wabo mu gihugu c'i Galatiya+.

26 Mbega ukuntu benshi muri bo bari bahagaritswe i Bosora+ na Bosor na Alema, Casfuori+ na Makedi na Karinayimu+; Ibisagara vyose birakomeye kandi bikomakomeye.

27 Kandi ko barugaye mu bisagara bisigaye vyo mu gihugu c'i Galatiya+, kandi gushika ku musi w'ejo bari bashinze kujana ingabo zabo kurwanya ibibanza, no kuzitora no kuzirandura umusi umwe+.

28 Hereuponi Yuda n'ingabo ziwe barahindukira bukwi na bukwi biciye mu nzira y'agahinga ija i Bosora+; Amaze gutsinda ico gisagara, yica abagabo bose n'ubugi bw'inkota, yakira iminyago yabo yose, aturira igisagara umuriro.

29Avuye mu cumba c'ijoro, agenda gushika ashitse ku gihome c'igihome.

30 Maze mu gitondo barahaguruka, maze babona abantu batabarika, bafise amajanja n'ibindi bisata vy'intambara+, ngo bafate igihome gikomeye+, kuko bariko barabakubita+.

31 Yuda abonye ko urugamba rutanguye, n'uko urwamo rw'igisagara ruduga mw'ijuru, n'inzamba n'urwamo rwinshi.

32Abarira nyen'ingabo yiwe ati: "Rwana uyu musi kuri bene wanyu.

33 Inyuma yabo agendera inyuma yabo mu mashirahamwe atatu, basemerera inzumbete zabo+, asemerera n'igisabisho co gusenga+.

34 Maze intwaza ngabo z'i Timotheyo+ bazi ko ari Makabe, zirahunga zivuye kuri we; ni co gituma yabatikiza n'isinzi ry'abantu.+ Kuri uwo musi, abantu nk'ibihumbi umunani barishwe.

35 Ivyo birashika, Yuda ahindukirira i Masfa+; Ahejeje kumukubita, aca ahitana abantu bose, yakira nya mashikanwa, arariturira.

36 Avuye aho aragenda, afata Casphoni, Magadi, Bosori n'ibindi bisagara vy'i Galatiya+.

37 Inyuma y'ivyo, Timotheus, uwundi mushitsi aca ambika i Rahabu hakurya y'uwo mwonga+.

38 Nuko Yuda atuma abantu ngo bisunge nya ngabo, bamuzanira ijambo, bati: "Ubushuhe bwose buri hafi yacu bukorana kuri bo, mbere n'ingabo nyinshi cane."

39 Vyongeye, yahaye akazi Abanyabibe kugira ngo babatabare+, kandi bashize amahema yabo hejuru y'uwo mwonga+, biteguye kuza barakurwanya+. Yuda yaciye aja kubasanganira.

40 Timotheo abwira abagaba b'ingabo ziwe ati: "Yuda n'ingabo ziwe nibaze hafi y'uwo mwonga+, ni yabanza kuturengana, ntituzoshobora kumubuza+. Kuko itazodutsinda, 41Ariko ni yatinya, n'ikambi iri hakurya ya rwa ruzi, tuzomurengera, tumurwanye.

42 Yuda ashitse hafi y'uwo mwonga, atuma abanditsi b'abantu basigara iruhande y'uwo mwonga, abo yahaye itegeko, avuga ati: "Ntihagire umuntu n'umwe uhaba ngo bagume mw'ikambi, mugabo bose baze ku rugamba."

43 Nuko atangura kuja kuri bo n'abantu bose bamukurikiye+; maze abanyabushuha bose bacika intege imbere yiwe, 20arukana ibirwanisho vyabo, ahungira mu rusengero rwari i Carnayimumu+.

44 Mugabo bafata ico gisagara, baturira urusengero n'abari ng'aho bose+. Ni co gituma Carinamu yari ahemye, kandi ntiyashobora guhagarara imbere ya Yuda.

45 Maze Yuda akoraniriza hamwe Bene Isirayeli bose bari mu gihugu c'i Galatiya, kuva ku bato gushika ku bakuru, abagore babo n'abana babo n'ibintu vyabo, ingabo nini cane gushika ku mpera y'igihugu c'Ubuyuda.

46Bashitse i Efuroni, (ico gisagara cari igisagara gikomeye mu nzira, cokimwe n'ibihome bikomeye cane, ntibashoboye kuyihindukiza, haba iburyo canke ibubamfu, ariko gikwiye kubaca hagati muri co.

47 Maze batangura kubagara, bahagarika amarembo y'igisagara n'amabuye+.

48 Nuko Yuda atuma kuri bo mu mahoro ati: "Duce mu gihugu cawe ngo tuve mu gihugu canje, tuja mu gihugu canje, kandi nta n'umwe azokugirira nabi+. Tuzoca tujabuka gusa n'ibirenge vyayo, kandi ntibazoshobora kuvyifatamwo neza.

49 Nuko Yuda ategeka ko haba indaro hose, ngo umuntu wese ashikane ihema ryiwe mu kibanza yarimwo.

50 Nuko nya basoda baraheza barasa ico gisagara ku murango no muri iryo joro ryose, gushika aho ca gisagara caba kirekire mu minwe+.

51 Hanyuma yica abagabo bose akoresheje ubugi bw'inkota, ashasha nya gisagara, yakira iminyago yaho, hanyuma aciye hagati mu gisagara abagandaguwe+.

52 Inyuma y'ivyo, baca hejuru ya Yorodani baja mu caya kinini imbere ya Betisani+.

53 Yuda akoranya abari inyuma, aremesha abantu inzira yose, gushika baje mu gihugu c'Ubuyuda.

54 Nuko baduga ku musozi Siyoni banezerewe+ n'akanyamuneza, aho bashikana amashikanwa aturirwa+, kuko ata n'umwe muri bo yarishwe gushika bagarutse mu mahoro+.

55 Buno Yuda na Yonatani+ bari mu gihugu c'i Galatiya+, simoni mwene wabo i Galilaya, imbere ya Ptolemy, 56Yozefu mwene Zakariya na Azariya, abakuru b'abasoda, bumvise ibikorwa vy'intwari n'ibikorwa vy'intambara nk'ivyo bari bakoze.

57 Kuko bavuga bati: "Natwe twironkere izina, turwane n'ubushuhe budukikije+.

58Bamaze gushikiriza ikirindiro cari kumwe na bo, baja i Yaniya.

59 Maze Gorgigi n'abantu biwe bava mu gisagara, kugira ngo babarwanye+.

60 Nuko yozefu naZara+ bajana mu gihugu, bakurikira gushika ku mbibe z'I Yudaya; kuri uwo musi, abantu ba Isirayeli baba abagabo nk'ibihumbi bibiri.'

61 Ukwo ni ko habaye ugutsinda gukomeye muri bene Isirayeli, kuko batagamburukiye Yuda be na bene wabo, mugabo biyumvira gukora igikorwa c'ubugabisha+.

62 Kandi abo bagabo ntibaje ku ruvyaro rw'abariko barahabwa ukuboko kwa Isirayeli+.

63 Mbega ukuntu umuntu Yuda na bene wabo bari ba rurangiranwa cane mu maso ya Isirayeli yose n'iy'ubushuhe bwose, aho izina ryabo ryose ryumvikanye+.

64 Nk'uko abantu bakoranira kuri bo n'ibivume biteye umunezero+.

65 Inyuma y'ivyo, Yuda asohokana na bene wabo, arwana na bene Ezawu+ mu gihugu co mu bumanuko, aho yakubita i Heburoni n'ibisagara vyaho, araheza asokorora igihome gikomeye caco, aturira iminara irya n'ino.

66 Nuko avanayo aja mu gihugu c'Abafilisitiya+, aca anyura i Samariya.+ 67 Ico gihe abaherezi bamwebamwe bari barondera guheba inyambo yabo+, barishwe ku rugamba, kuko basohotse kurwana ata ngozi+.

68 Yuda rero ahindukirira Kuri Azoto mu gihugu c'Abafilisitiya, ahejeje gukura hasi ibicaniro vyabo, aturira ibishusho vyabo bibajwe n'umuriro, araheza asambura ibisagara vyabo, asubira mu gihugu c'I Yudaya.

IKIGABANE CA 6 1 Ico gihe umwami Antiyokusi aciye mu bihugu vyo hejuru+ yumva avuga ati: "Elymayi+ mu gihugu c'Ubuperesi cari igisagara c'ubuperesi cazwi cane ku bijanye n'ubutunzi, ifeza n'inzahabu.

2 Kandi muri ico gisagara hari urusengero rw'inzahabu+ n'ibitwikiro vy'inzahabu+ be n'inkinzo n'inkinzo, izo Alegizandere mwene Filipo+ umwami w'I Makedoniya, uwatanguye kuganza mu Bagiriki, yari yasigaye ng'aho.

3Aje, arondera gutwara igisagara, kugira ngo aciyagire+; Ariko ntiyashobora kubona ico gisagara, kuko bari bamaze kuburirayo.

4 Arahaguruka ngo amurwanye+; arahunga, acikana n'agahebuza, acikana n'ibiremereye cane, asubira i Babiloni+.

5Kandi haza uwumujana mu Buperesi, ingabo zajabuka igihugu c'ubuyuda, zija mu buperesi.

6 Kandi yuko Lysia+ umwe yabanje kugenda afise ububasha bwinshi, amwirukana mu Bayuda. Kandi ngo bakomere kubera ibirwanisho, n'ububasha, n'ugukibikanya iminyago, ivyo bari baranyagiye, abo bari barahonye.

7 Kandi yuko bari barakuye hasi ico kintu giteye ishishi yari yashinze ku gicaniro i Yeruzalemu be n'uko bari barasesemye+ ku bijanye n'ahantu heranda hakirurutse nk'uko vyari kera, be n'igisagara ciwe Betisura.

8 Maze umwami acumva ayo majambo, atangazwa n'intuntu n'intuntu; amushira ku buriri bwiwe, agwa n'intuntu, kuko atari yamubonye igihe yariko ararondera+.

9 Vyongeye, arabandanya imisi myinshi+; kuko intuntu yiwe yarushirije kuba nyinshi kuruta, kandi yiyumvira ko akwiye gupfa+.

10 Nuko ahamagara abagenzi biwe bose, ababwira ati: "Agatiro kavuye ku maso yanje+, kandi umutima wanje ntiwabura kunyitwararika cane+.

11Ariko niyumvira, mu makuba azoza, n'ingene uruzuba rw'amarushwa ari runini, aho ndi ubu! Kuko nari umukundwa kandi w'umukundwa mu bushobozi bwanje.

12 Mugabo ubu nibutse ivyago nagiriye i Yeruzalemu+ be n'uko natwaye ibikoresho vyose vy'inzahabu n'ifeza+ vyari ng'aho, nca ntuma guhonya ababa i Yudaya ata mvo n'imwe nari mfise.

13Ni co gituma mbona yuko ivyo bintu bishika kuri jewe, kandi ehe ndanduwe n'intuntu nyinshi mu gihugu c'amarushwa.

14 Nuko ahamagara Filipo, umwe mu bagenzi biwe, umwe yagize umutware w'akarere kiwe kose.+ 15 Amuha urugori n'umutamana wiwe n'umutamana wiwe+ be n'ikimenyetso ciwe+, gushika aho aheze azane umuhungu wiwe Antiyokiya+ hanyuma amugaburira ku bw'ubwami+.

16Nuko Antiyokusi arapfa mu mwaka amajana ane n'icenda.

17 Lysia amaze kumenya ko umwami yapfuye, ashinga Antiyokusi umuhungu wiwe yari yaraduze akiri muto, ngo avyare mu kibanza ciwe+ kandi yitwa Erupatori+.

18 Muri ico gihe nyene, abari ng'aho mw'uwo munara barugaye+ bene Isirayeli bakikije ahantu heranda+, kandi bama barondera kubagirira nabi+ be n'ugukomera kw'umushaha+ w'ubushuhe+.

19 Kubera ko Yuda, arondera kubazimanganya+, ahamagara abantu bose ngo babasugere+.

20Bakoraniriza hamwe, babasugereje mu mwaka ugira mirongo itanu, akora imisozi kubarasako, n'izindi moteri.

21 Ese ukuntu bamwe muri bo bari basugerejwe+, bamwe mu bagabo ba Isirayeli batibanga Imana bifatanije na bo+.

22 Maze baja aho umwami ari, batangura kuvuga bati: "Uzogeza ryari guca imanza ugahana bene wacu+?

23 Twama dufise umutima ukunze wo gukorera so, no gukora nk'uko yoturonsa, no kugamburuka amabwirizwa yiwe+.

24 Kuko ico ari co gituma igihugu cacu gisugerejwe n'umunara, bigatuma tuguma kure yacu+; kandi benshi muri twebwe, nk'uko benshi muri twebwe bashoboye kumurikira, bica bica, bagahonya intoranwa yacu+.

25Kandi ntibatumiriye ukuboko kwabo kutugirira nabi, ariko n'ukurwanya n'imbibe zabo.

26 Kandi ehe uyu musi bariko barasugerera umunara i Yeruzalemu kugira bayitore+; ahantu heranda+ be n'i Betisura na bo nyene bari bikingijwe ibihome+.

27 Niwaba utirinda ningoga+, bazokora ibihambaye kuruta ivyo, kandi ntuzoshobora kubitegeka+.

28 Umwami ngo avyumve, arashavura, akoraniriza hamwe abagenzi biwe bose n'abakuru b'ingabo ziwe n'abashinzwe ivy'ifarasi+.

29 Na we nyene aza kuri we avuye mu bindi bwami no mu bindi bishobisho vyo mu kiyaga, imigwi y'abasirikare b'imicafu+.

30 Igitigiri c'ingabo ziwe cari ibihumbi ijana n'abagendera ku mafarasi ibihumbi mirongo ibiri, n'inzovu zibiri na zitatu zija ku rugamba+.

31 Abo banyura muri Idumeya+, batangura kurwanya Betisura+, na bo baragira ibitero imisi myinshi, bakora ivyuma vy'intambara+. Ariko bo muri Betisura barasohoka, babaturira n'umuriro, bararwana bishimitse.

32 Inyuma y'ivyo, Yuda akurwa ku munara maze ashika i Batizacharya+ ngo arwanye ikambi y'umwami.

33 Maze umwami avyuka kare cane+ ari kumwe n'ingabo ziwe, ashika i Batizakari, aho ingabo ziwe zari ziteguye kurwana, zivuza inzamba.

34 Mugabo gushika kw'iherezo, boshobora kuvyura inzovu ngo zirwanye+, baziseshe amaraso y'imizabibu be n'ibishobisho vy'imizabibu+.

35 Vyongeye, bagaburamwo ibikoko mu ngabo+, maze ku bw'inzovu zose bashiraho abagabo igihumbi, bitwaje impuzu z'iposita, n'inkofero z'umujumpu ku mitwe yazo+. 15 Kandi uretse n'ivyo, kuko igikoko cose cashinzwe abagendera ku mafarasi amajana atanu+.

36 Kandi bari biteguye igihe cose, aho ico gikoko cari co cose, kandi ico gikoko na co nyene kigendagenda, na co nyene baragenda, kandi ntibava kuri we+.

37 Kandi kuri nya bikoko hari iminara ikomeye y'inkwi, ipfutse umwe wese muri vyo, ikongera ikavyisonzesha bimwe bikongera bisonzesha bimwe bikongera bisonzesha ku bantu bose b'abanyenkomezi babiri na batatu, babarwanira iruhande y'Abahindi bari bamuganze+.

38 Nayo amasigarira y'abagendera ku mafarasi+, bayashira kuri urwo ruhande+ be n'abo mu mihingo ibiri y'ingabo, ibaha ibimenyetso vy'ivyo bokora+, kandi bariko barakoreshwa mu bibanza vyose+.

39 Izuba rirasira ku nkinzo z'inzahabu n'umujumpu, imisozi itangura gukayangana, ikayangana nk'amatara y'umuriro+.

40 Nuko rero, igice c'ingabo z'umwami kikwiragira ku misozi miremire+ be n'igice c'ibiya co hasi+ baca baja mu mutekano no ku rutonde+.

41 Kuko abavyumvise bose bavuza urwamo rw'isinzi ryabo n'urwamo rw'umugwi n'urwamo rw'umusho, n'ugusamura kw'umusho w'umushori, vyararandujwe, kuko inteko za gisirikare zari zihambaye cane kandi z'abanyenkomezi+.

42 Maze Yuda n'ingabo ziwe begera, binjira ku rugamba, hapfa abantu amajana atandatu mu ngabo z'umwami.+ 43 Eleyazari+ na we nyene yitwa Savaran, amenya yuko kimwe mu bikoko, cari bifise inkoho z'umwami, cari hejuru cane y'izindi zose, kandi ko umwami yari kuri we.

44Mushire mu buja, muheze muhe abantu biwe, mumuhe izina ry'igihe kitagira urugero+.

45Amwirukako aciye hagati mu rugamba, apfira iburyo n'ibubamfu, bituma birema ibice kuri we impande zompi.

46 Ahejeje kugonagura munsi y'inzovu, ayishira munsi y'inzovu, iramwica; inzovu igwa kuri yo, ipfirayo.

47 Mbega ingene Abayuda basigaye babona ububasha bw'umwami n'ubukazi bw'ingabo ziwe, baca barabaheba+.

48 Maze ingabo z'umwami ziduga i Yeruzalemu kubasanganira+, maze umwami ashira amahema yiwe kuri Yudaya no ku musozi Sioni+.

49 Mugabo ari kumwe na bo bari i Betisura, agira amahoro+ kuko bavuye mu gisagara, kuko batari bazi ko bari ng'aho ngo bihanganye n'ugusugereza, cari umwaka w'akaruhuko mu gihugu+.

50 Nuko umwami afata Betisura maze ashinga ikirindiro co kuzigama.

51 Nayo ahantu heranda+, arawusurura imisi myinshi, ashirayo ibikogwa vy'intambara n'ibicurarangisho vy'intambara, kugira ngo aterere umuriro n'amabuye, n'ibihimba vy'imisegetera vy'imisegetera n'ibishobisho.

52 Na bo nyene barakoze imoteri zabo,Babashiramwo igihe kirekire+.

53Ariko mu nyuma, ivyombo vyabo vyari bidafise victualal, kuko wari umwaka ugira indwi, na vyo i Yudaya vyari vyakuwe mu banyamahanga, vyari vyariye ibisigarira vy'iryo tongo; 54 Hari hasigaye bakeyi gusa mu ngoro, kuko ikigoyi cari kubatsinda+ ku buryo bama bashwiragiza+ umuntu wese mu kibanza ciwe bwite+.

55 Ico gihe, Lysiasi yumva avuze ngo: Filipo, uwo umwami Antiyokusi akiriho, yari yagenye ngo azane Antiyokusi umuhungu wiwe Antiyokusi, kugira ngo abe umwami.

56 Inyuma y'ubuperesi n'ubumedi+ be n'ingabo z'umwami na zo nyene zari zijanye na we, na we arondera kumukura ku ngoma y'ivyo bintu.

57Kandi aho yaja hose, abwira umwami n'abaganwa b'ingabo n'ishengero ati: "Tuguma duhonya imisi yose, n'abaganwa bacu ni bato gusa, kandi aho duhatarirwa hari abakomeye, n'ivy'ubwami biratubeshaho.

58 Ubu rero tugume dufitaniye ubucuti n'abo bantu+ kandi tugire amahoro na bo, n'igihugu cabo cose+.

59 Kandi isezerano na bo, ni uko bazokwisunga amategeko yabo+ nk'uko bahora bagenza+, kuko ivyo vyose bibabaza+, kuko dukuyeho itegeko ryabo+.

60 Nuko umwami n'abaganwa bahimbawe n'ibintu bihimbaye+; ni co gituma yabatumako ngo baronke amahoro+.

Baremeye aho nyene.

61 Maze umwami n'abaganwa barahira indahiro+; mugabo baguma basohoka mu kibanza c'abanyenkomezi+.

62 Maze umwami yinjira ku musozi Wa Siyoni+; Ariko abonye inguvu z'aho hantu, aca amenagura indahiro yari yararahiye, maze atanga itegeko ryo gusya hasi hejuru y'urwo ruhome.

63 Inyuma y'ivyo, arihuta cane, asubira i Antiyokiya+ aho yasanze Filipo ari shebuja wa ca gisagara; nuko aramurwanya, afata igisagara akoresheje inguvu.

IKIGABANE CA 7 Mu mwaka ijana na mirongo itanu, Demetiriyo mwene Selewuko arava i Roma, aduga ari kumwe n'abantu bakeyi, aja mu gisagara co ku nkengera y'ikiyaga, atangura kuganza.

2 Maze ashitse mu kirimba ca ba sekuruza biwe, ni ko n'ingabo ziwe zari zafashe Antiyokiya n'i Lysiasi kugira ngo zibe ari zo ziyishikana kuri we+.

3 Mugabo igihe yabimenya, avuga ati: "Reka ntabone mu maso habo+.

4 Nuko ingabo ziwe ziramwica+. Nuko Demetiriyo ashikwa ku ngoma yiwe, 5 Nuko haza abagabo b'ababisha bose b'Abanyisrayeli bose kandi batibanga Imana, bafise Aliyumu+ yari afise umuherezi mukuru+ ku bw'umukuru wabo+.

6 Kandi baguma bagiriza abantu ku mwami bati: "Yuda na bene wabo bishe abagenzi bawe bose+, badukura mu gihugu cacu+.

7None rero, nurungike umuntu wizigiye+, ugende, urabe ico yagonye muri twebwe no mu gihugu c'umwami, kandi abahane n'ababafasha bose+.

8 Maze umwami atora Bacchides+ incuti y'umwami, umwe yatwara inyuma ya rya segenya+, kandi yari umuntu akomeye mu bwami+, kandi ari umwizigirwa ku mwami+, 9 Nuko arungikana n'uwo munyakibi Alkimu+, uwo yashinze umuherezi mukuru+ yongera ategeka ko yokwihora+ bene Isirayeli+.

10 Nuko baragenda, baza n'ububasha bwinshi mu gihugu c'Ubuyuda, aho barungika intumwa kuri Yuda n'abavukanyi biwe amajambo y'amahoro+.

11 Mugabo ntibagavye amajambo yabo+; Kuko babonye ko baje bafise ububasha buhambaye.

12 Maze ng'aho bakoranira kuri Alkwimu+ na Bakides ko ari umugwi w'abahinga b'ivyanditswe, kugira ngo baronke ubutungane+.

13 Nayo Abanyasasideri ni bo ba mbere muri bene Isirayeli barondera amahoro+.

14 Kuko bavuze bati: "Umwe ni umuherezi w'uruvyaro rwa Aroni+ azanye n'iyi ngabo, kandi nta kibi azotugirira+.

15 Araheza ababwira mu mahoro, abagirire neza, ati: "Tuzogirira nabi mwebwe canke abakunzi banyu.

16 Mugabo baramwizera+ bati: "Yakira abagabo batatu, aramwica mu musi umwe, nk'uko vyavuzwe n'amajambo yiwe."

17 Inyama z'abera bawe ni zo zasendanye+, kandi amaraso yabo yasekuye irya n'ino irya n'ino i Yeruzalemu+, kandi nta n'umwe yari ahari wo kubahamba+.

18 Kuko ubwoba n'ubwoba vyaguye ku bantu bose bavuga bati: "Ukuri canke ukugororoka ntihari muri vyo+. Kuko bararenze ku masezerano n'indahiro bakoze.

19 Inyuma y'ivyo, akura Bakidesi i Yeruzalemu+ maze ashira amahema yiwe i Bezati+ aho yarungika, ahitana abantu benshi bari bamutaye+ be n'abantu bamwebamwe, na bo nyene amaze kubagandagura, abaterera muri nya cobo kinini+.

20 Maze ajana n'igihugu i Alcimu+, asigarana n'ububasha bwo kumufasha;Nuko Bacchides aja ku mwami.

21 Mugabo Alekimu+ anyinyana n'ubusaserdoti busumbane.

22 Maze akoranya abantu bose nk'abahagarika umutima+, kuko bamaze gutegera igihugu c'i Yudaya mu bubasha bwabo, babaza cane muri Isirayeli+.

23 Yuda abonye ubuhemu bwose Alcimu n'ishirahamwe ryiwe bari barakoreye bene Isirayeli, mbere no hejuru y'ubushuhe.

24 Avayo aja ku nkengera zose z'i Yudaya mu micungararo y'imicungararo y'i Yudaya, ahora ahebura abavuye kuri we+, kugira ngo ntibasubire kuja mu gihugu+.

25 Ku rundi ruhande, Acimu abonye ko Yuda+ n'ishirahamwe ryiwe bari bashitse hejuru+ maze bamenya ko adashobora kwubahiriza inguvu zabo, asubira kuduga ku mwami, avuga ibintu vy'intibagirwa muri bo vyose yashoboye gukora+.

26 Maze umwami atuma Nikarari+, umwe mu baganwa biwe b'iteka+, umuntu yanka runuka Isirayeli, abwirizwa kwica itegeko ryo guhonya abantu+.

27 Nikari rero ashika i Yeruzalemu, afise inguvu nyinshi+ Arungika kuri Yuda n'abavukanyi biwe amajambo y'ubuhendanyi, ati: 28 Ntihabe intambara hagati yanje nawe+. Nzozanana n'abantu bakeyi, ndababone mu mahoro.

29 Nuko rero aza kuri Yuda, hanyuma baremeshanya amahoro+. 17 Ukuntu abo bansi bari biteguye gukura Yuda mu bukazi.

30Ni co catumye Yuda atahura yuko ashika kuri we akoresheje amayeri y'uruhendo, aratinya cane, kandi ntiyongera kubona mu maso hiwe+.

31 Nicari abonye ko impanuro yiwe yatahuwe, aja kurwanya Yuda iruhande ya Kafarisalama+.

32 Aho ni ho hagandaguwe ku ruhande rwa Nikuni+ abagabo nk'ibihumbi bitanu, abandi na bo bahungira mu gisagara ca Dawidi+.

33 Inyuma y'ivyo, Nikari+ aduga ku musozi Wa Siyoni+, maze hasohoka umwe mu baherezi+ bamwe n'abagabo b'inararibonye b'abantu, kugira ngo bamushirize amahoro+, no kumushemeza ishikanwa riturirwa ryatangwa ku mwami+.

34 Mugabo arabatwengera, arabatwenga+ yongera abagirira nabi bimwe biteye isoni+, kandi ashira isoni mu kugaragaza ubwibone+, 35 Kandi n'ishavu ryiwe+, ngo: "Yuda n'ingabo ziwe nibatashirirwa mu maboko yanje+, ninagaruka mu mutekano, nzoturira iyi nzu, kandi arasohoka ashavuye cane+.

36 Maze abaherezi binjira, bahagarara imbere y'igicaniro n'urusengero+ barira, bavuga bati:

37 Ewe Yehova, ni wewe watoye iyi nzu ngo yitwa izina ryawe+, ibe inzu yo gusengeramwo, kandi usenge igisata cawe+.

38 Nuko rero, muve mu tuntu n'amagorwa y'uyu muntu n'ingabo ziwe+, kandi nibagwishwe n'inkota+; nimwibuke ibitutsi vyabo+, kandi ntimubandanye kubabarizwa+.

39 Nuko Nikari ava i Yeruzalemu, ashira amahema yiwe i Betsaroni+, aho ingabo z'i Siriya zimusanganiye na we.

40 Mugabo Yuda ashikanira muri Adasa ari kumwe n'abantu ibihumbi bitatu, aca asengerayo ati: 41 Ewe Yehova, igihe abatumwe n'umwami wa Ashuri barogota+, umumarayika wako arasohoka, atangura gushurashura+ ibihumbi amajana ane na bitanu muri bo+.

42 Mbere n'uyu musi, muhonye uyu musi, imbere yacu, kugira ngo abasigaye bamenye ko yatutse ahantu heranda rwawe+, akagucira urubanza hisunzwe ububisha bwiwe+.

43 Nuko ku musi ugira cumi n'itatu w'ukwezi kwa Adari, ingabo zitangura kurwana; mugabo ingabo za Nikanori zitangura kugonanwa+ kandi na we agandaguwe ubwa mbere mu rugamba.

44Kandi ingabo za Nikari zibonye ko yishwe, zirukana ibirwanisho vyabo, zirahunga.

45Bakurikira urugendo rw'umusi umwe, kuva i Adasa gushika i Gatizera, bavuza induru inyuma yabo n'inzamba zabo.

46 Amaherezo basohoka bava mu bisagara vyose vy'I Yudaya,Batangura kuzigara.+ Ngo bahindukire ababakurikiye bose barishwe n'inkota, ntihagire n'umwe asigara.

47 Inyuma y'ivyo, bafata iminyago+ n'isahu+ maze bashira ku mutwe Nicanorsi+ n'ukuboko kwiwe kw'ukuryo, aramwugaragura anezerewe cane, anawujana, ayimanika hafi y'i Yeruzalemu+.

48 Kuko ivyo vyatuma abantu banezerwa cane+, kandi uwo musi bahimbaza uwo musi umusi w'akanyamuneza kenshi+.

49 Kandi bashinga rero kuzigama uko umwaka utashe, ni ukuvuga mu kibanza ca cumi na gatatu ca Adari.

50 Ukwo ni ko igihugu ca Yuda camara umwanya mutoyi+.

IKIGABANE CA 8 1 Yuda yari yarumvise ivyerekeye Abaroma, yuko bari abanyenkomezi kandi b'intwari, kandi ngo bakire abifatanije na bo abigiranye urukundo bose, kandi bahindure n'abafise umutima rugabo n'abazoba baje kuri bo bose.

2 Kandi yuko bari abagabo b'agahebuza+. Babwirwa n'intambara zabo n'ibikorwa vy'ubugororotsi bakoze mu Bagalatiya, n'ingene bari baratsinze, babizana iteka.

3 Kandi ivyo bari barakoze mu gihugu ca Espanye+, ku bijanye no gutsinda amabuye y'agaciro y'ifeza n'inzahabu biri ng'aho+; 4 Kandi kubera ingingo zabo n'ukwihangana kwabo+ bari baratsinze ahantu hose+, naho vyari kure cane yabo+. Abami babarwanya bava mu mihingo yose y'isi, gushika aho baba baranyanze, babaha indwano ikomeye, ku buryo abasigaye babaha icubahiro buri mwaka.

5 Nayo ku bw'ivyo, ukuntu bari banse kurwana na Filipo na Perseyo umwami w'i Citimu+, hamwe n'abandi bari bahagurutse ngo babatsinde+.

6 Ese ukuntu Antiyokiya+ umwami ahambaye wa Asiya+ yaje kubarwanya+ ku rugamba, afise inzovu ijana na mirongo ibiri, ari kumwe n'abagendera ku mafarasi+ n'imikogote+ be n'inteko za gisirikare nyinshi cane,+ yabatambiwe+.

7Kandi ingene bamujanye ari muzima, basezerana ko we n'abaganza bamuganiye inyuma yiwe, batange impembo nini, bamuhe imbohe, n'iy'iy'agreed.

8 Kandi igihugu c'Ubuhindi+ n'ubumedi+ na Lidiya be n'ibihugu vyiza kuruta ibindi+, ivyo bamutwara bakamuha umwami Emenesi+.

9 Vyongeye, ukuntu Abagiriki bari biyemeje kuza kubazimanganya+; 10 Kandi ko bafise ubumenyi+ babatumako, babatumako umukuru w'abasoda, benshi muri bo, babajana ari imbohe+ abagore babo n'abana babo, babasahura, babasahura amatongo yabo, babakurako ububasha bwabo, babajana kuba abasuku babo gushika n'uyu musi+.

11 Bamubwira bati: "Barahona, banesha ubundi bwami bwose n'ibishobisho vyabo, ku buryo igihe ico ari co cose babarwanya+; 12 Mugabo bari kumwe n'abagenzi babo, bakishimikiza+ kuri bo, kandi ko batsinze ubwami bwa kure n'ubuto+ nk'ubw'abarumvise izina ryabo bose batinye+.

13 Uwo bazofasha ubwami+ ni bo baganza+; Ahubwo riho, abo bami baracumuye, kandi ntibazobura kugoyagoya.

14 Mugabo ivyo vyose nta n'umwe muri bo yari yambaye urugori canke ngo yambaye impuzu y'umuhondo, kugira ngo a magnifike+.

15 Vyongeye, ukuntu bitanze inzu y'inama nshingamateka+, aho abagabo amajana atatu na mirongo ibiri bicaye mu nama ku musi ku musi ku musi, bama gisha inama abantu imisi yose+, gushika kw'iherezo bazoba bategetswe+.

16 Kandi ko bama bashira intwaro yabo ku muntu umwe buri mwaka+, umwe yatwara igihugu cabo cose+ be n'uko bose bagamburuka uwo muntu+ be n'uko ata n'ishari canke ugushari+.

17 Ku bw'ivyo, Yuda atora Ezopolemu mwene Yohani mwene Accosi na Yasoni+ mwene Eleyazari, abatuma i Roma kugira ngo bagire umuryango w'amwumwe n'ishengero ry'ugusangira na bo.

18 Kandi kugira ngo babakureko ingǒgo yabo+; Kuko babonye ko ubwami bw'Abagiriki buhahaza Abisirayeli.

19 Nuko baja i Roma, urwo rwari urugendo ruhambaye cane, bashika mu nama nkenguzamateka, aho bavuga bati: 20 Yuda Makabe ari kumwe n'abavukanyi biwe n'abantu b'Abayuda, ni bo badutumyeko, kugira ngo tubagire confederacy n'amahoro+ hamwe namwe, kugira ngo twitwarwe n'aba confederates n'abagenzi bawe+.

21 Ukwo ni ko kunezereza Abaroma.

22 Kandi iki ni co cibutso c'ingero+ inama nkenguzamateka casubiye kwandika ku meza y'umujumpu+, kirungikwa i Yeruzalemu, kugira ngo baharonke biciye kuri bo icibutso c'amahoro n'i confederacy.+ 23 Intsinzi nziza ku Baroma n'abantu b'Abayuda, ku kiyaga no ku gihugu gushika igihe kitagira urugero,Kandi inkota n'umwansi biba kure yabo ibihe bidahera+.

24 Nihaba hari ikintu ca mbere c'intambara ku Baroma canke mu ba confederates babo mu njinji yaco yose+, 25 Abantu b'Abayuda bazobafasha, nk'uko igihe kizogeshirwa hamwe n'umutima wabo wose+.

26 Eka kandi ntibazobaha ikintu na kimwe co kubarwanya+ canke ngo babafashe mu mafuti, ibirwanisho, n'amahera canke amato, nk'uko vyaboneka ko ari vyiza ku Baroma+. Ariko rero, bazozigama isezerano ryabo, ntihagire ico bashira imbere.

27Ni uko nyene, nimba intambara ibaye iya mbere kuri iryo hanga ry'Abayuda, Abaroma bazobatabara n'umutima wabo wose, nk'uko ico gihe kizobashira.

28 Eka n'abafise ibirwanisho+ canke amahera, canke amato, nk'uko vyaboneka ko ari vyiza ku Baroma+. Bazozigama isezerano ryabo, kandi ata buhendanyi bwabo.

29 Nk'uko bivugwa muri ivyo biganiro, Abaroma baragiraniye isezerano n'Abayuda.

30 Ese ukuntu mu nyuma y'inyuma y'umugambwe umwe canke uwundi yokwiyumvira gukoranira kugira yongereko canke agabanye ikintu ico ari co cose+, babikore ku bihimba vyabo+, kandi ico cose bazokwongerwako canke bakureko kizokwemezwa+.

31 Nayo ku mabi Demetiriyo akoreye Abayuda, twamwandikiye duti: "Ni hehe wahemvye ingǒgo yawe ku bagenzi bacu no ku bayuda?"

32 Nimba rero barushiriza kukwidodombera+, tuzobagirira ubugororotsi+, kandi turwanye hagati y'ikiyaga n'isi+.

IKIGABANE CA 9 1Kandi Demetiriyo ngo yumve Nicari+ n'ingabo ziwe barishwe ku rugamba, atuma Bacchidesi na Alcimu mu gihugu c'Ubuyuda ubugira kabiri, hamwe na bo n'inkomezi z'ingabo ziwe+.

2 Uwagenda agana inzira ija i Galgala+, asuka amahema yabo imbere ya Masaloti+ ari i Alubeya+, mugabo bamaze kuyitsinda, bica abantu benshi+.

3 Kandi mu kwezi kwa mbere kw'umwaka ugira mirongo itanu na kabiri, barashinga ikambi+ imbere ya Yeruzalemu.

4 Baraheza barakura, baja i Bereya+, bafise abagendera ku maguru ibihumbi mirongo ibiri n'abagendera ku mafarasi ibihumbi bibiri.

5 Yuda yari yarashinze amahema yiwe i Eleasa n'abantu ibihumbi bitatu batoranijwe.

6 Kandi abona isinzi ry'izindi ngabo kuri we, aratinya cane+; Ariko rero, benshi muri bo baciye batangura kwiyonkora ku mutima, nk'uko benshi muri bo baciye batangura kwiyonkora mu buja, nk'uko nyene babisavye, atari abagabo amajana umunani.

7 Yuda abonye ko ingabo ziwe zihevye, urugamba ruramukomera, arababara cane mu mutwe, ababara cane, kuko ataronse umwanya wo kubakoraniriza hamwe.

8 Mugabo abandanya kuvuga ati: "Haguruka turwane n'abansi bacu+, nimba dushobora kurwana na bo+.

9 Mugabo baramwidodombera bati: "Ntituzokwigera dushobora kwigera dushobora+; ahubwo reka dukire ubuzima bwacu+; hanyuma tuzogarukana na bene wacu, tubarwanye, kuko turi bake+.

10 Maze Yuda avuga ati: "Imana ibuza ko nkora ibi bintu, ngo mbahunge, kuko igihe cacu kizoba gishitse, nitwipfire+ ku bwa bene wacu, kandi ntiduteshe ubuninahazwa bwacu+.

11 Vyongeye, ingabo za Bacchides zikurwa mu mahema yazo+ maze zigahagarara kuri bo, abagendera ku mafarasi babo bagababurwamwo inteko zibiri, n'abanyamiheto babo n'abanyamiheto babo+ baja imbere y'ingabo, kandi abagenda imbere bose bari abagabo b'inkomezi+.

12 Nayo Bacchides, yari mu ruhande rw'iburyo+; nya ngabo ikwegereye kuri vya bipande bibiri, ivuza inzamba zayo+.

13 Na bo nyene bo ku ruhande rwa Yuda, mbere na bo nyene baravuza inzamba zabo+, ku buryo isi ivuza urwamo rw'ingabo, maze intambara irabandanya kuva mu gitondo gushika mw'ijoro+.

14 Yuda amenya ko Bacchidesi n'ingabo ziwe zari ku ruhande rw'iburyo, ajana na we abantu bose b'ibigoye, 15Ni we yahema uruguma rw'iburyo, abakurikirana ku musozi Wa Azoto.

16 Mugabo abo ku mukomanda w'ibubamfu babonye ko ku wingo y'iburyo bacika intege, bakurikira Yuda n'abari kumwe n'abari kumwe na we ku nyeshure bavuye inyuma.+ 17 Haca haba intambara igongana+ nk'uko benshi barishwe muri iyo mihingo ibiri.

18 Yuda na we nyene yarishwe, n'abasigaye barahunga.

19 Maze Yonatani na Simoni bajana Yuda mwenewabo+, bamuhamba mu mva ya ba sekuruza i Modini+.

20 Na bo nyene baramukorera+, maze Isirayeli yose imuririra cane+, maze batangura kugandarira imisi myinshi bavuga bati: 21 Ese ukuntu wa mugabo w'intwari yaguye,Warokoye Isirayeli+!

22 Nayo ibindi ku bijanye na Yuda n'intambara ziwe+ be n'ibikorwa vy'ubuninahazwa yakoze n'ubukuru bwiwe, ntivyanditswe, kuko vyari vyinshi cane+.

23 Inyuma y'urupfu rwa Yuda, ababisha batangura gushira imitwe yabo ku nkengera zose za Isirayeli+, maze abantu bose bavyuka+ nk'ubugarariji+.

24 Muri iyo misi na ho, ikigoyi gikomeye cane, ni co catumye ico gihugu kigarariza hamwe na bo+.

25 Maze Bakidesi atora abo bantu babi+, amugira abaganza igihugu+.

26 Nuko batangura kubaza no kurondera incuti za Yuda, babajana i Bayadesi, umwe yabahora, akabahora, hanyuma bayakoreshe ata co bari bafise.

27 Nuko muri Isirayeli haba amarushwa menshi+, nk'aho atari kuva mu gihe umuhanuzi atari bwaboneke muri bo+.

28Ni co gituma abakunzi ba Yuda bose bakoranira hamwe, maze bamenyesha Yonatani bati: 29 Kubera ko Yuda+ mwene wanyu yapfuye, nta muntu n'umwe ahwanye na we ngo agende kurwanya abansi bacu n'i Bayadesi be n'abo mu gihugu cacu baturwanya+.

30 Ni co gituma uyu musi twagutoye ngo ube umuganwa wacu n'umukuru mu kibanza ciwe+, kugira ngo urwane intambara zacu+.

31 Nuko Yonatani amufata ubutegetsi+ ico gihe, hanyuma ahaguruka aho kuja kwa murumunawe Yuda.

32 Erhi Bakiddesi aciyêra, arondera kucêra, 33 Maze Yonatani na Simoni mwene wabo na Simoni mwenewabo n'abari kumwe na we bose, babona yuko bahungira mu gahinga k'i Tcoeki+, bashira amahema yabo iruhande y'amazi y'ikidengeri Asfari+.

34 Bakidesi abimenye, ashika hafi ya Yorodani ari kumwe n'ingabo ziwe zose ku musi w'isabato.

35 Mugabo Yonatani yari yarungitse mwene wabo Yohani umukuru w'abantu, ngo asenge abagenzi biwe Nabati, kugira ngo basige n'umukogote wabo wari mwinshi.

36 Mugabo bene Yabri barasohoka bava i Medaba+, bajana Yohani n'ivyo yari afise vyose, barajana na bo.+ 37 Inyuma y'ivyo bishitse, yonatani na Simoni mwene wabo, yuko bene Yabeli bavyarana ubugeni bukomeye, bakazana umugeni avuye i Nayiabati, nk'uko yari umukobwa w'umwe mu baganwa bakomeye b'i Chana.

38 Nuko batangura kwibuka Yohani mwene wabo, hanyuma baraduga, binyegeza munsi y'ikitwikiro c'umusozi+.

39 Aho bararamuye amaso yabo, bararaba, babona umukogote mwinshi n'umukogote munini+ n'umuduga munini; umukwe na wa mugeni araza, incuti ziwe n'abavukanyi biwe, kugira ngo bahure n'ibicurarangisho be n'ibicurarangisho vy'inanga be n'ibirwanisho vy'ibicurarangisho n'ibirwanisho vyinshi.

40 Maze Yonatani n'abari kumwe na we barahaguruka ngo bave aho bari baryamye mu gishingo c'inkoho, babatemagura+ nk'uko benshi bagwa bapfuye, amasigarira na yo ahungira kuri nya musozi, bafata iminyago yabo yose+.

41 Ukwo ni ko umubano w'ababiranye wahindutse ikigandaro+, n'urwamo rw'ugucura intimba+.

42 Nuko bamaze kwitura amaraso ya mwene wabo+, basubira ku ruzi rwa Yorodani.

43 Bacchides avyumvise, ashika ku musi w'isabato, aja ku nkombe za Yorodani afise ububasha bwinshi.

44 Maze Yonatani abwira abo mu mugwi wiwe ati: "Ingo duhaguruke rero turwane+ ubuzima bwacu, kuko buguma buhagararana natwe ku musi ku musi, nk'uko vyahora+.

45 Kuko ehe intambara iri imbere yacu n'inyuma yacu+, n'amazi ya Yorodani ari ng'aha no kuri urwo ruhande, urwo ruzi nyene n'urwo ruzi nyene n'inkwi, kandi nta hantu na hamwe twosubira inyuma+.

46 Aho ni ho mutakambira ubu ushika mw'ijuru+, kugira ngo murokorwe mu kuboko kw'abansi bawe+.

47Bafatanije n'urugamba, Yonatani aramvura ukuboko kugira ngo amufashe Bayadesi, ariko arahindukira aramuva inyuma.

48 Maze Yonatani n'abari kumwe na we baterera muri Yorodani, batangura koga ku yindi nkombe; mugabo uwundi ntiyaciye hejuru ya Yorodani+.

49 Kuri uwo musi, abantu nk'ibihumbi baragandaguwe ku ruhande rwa Bacchidesi+.

50 Inyuma y'ivyo, basubira i Bekidesi i Yeruzalemu bongera barasanasana ibintu bikomeye vy'i Yudaya+. Ico gisagara c'i Yeriko, Emawusi na Betihoroni na Beteli na Tamuta, Putharata na Tafoni, ni ho yakomeranye n'impome zikirurutse, inzugi n'ibihindizo.

51 Kandi muri bo ashinga ikirindiro+, kugira ngo bakorere+ Isirayeli mu buryo bugoyagoya+.

52 Nuko ashinga n'igisagara Betisura n'igisagara ca Gatizera n'umunara, abishiramwo inguvu be n'ibitunganyo vy'imishaha+.

53 Hanyuma ajana n'abahungu b'abagabo bakuru muri ico gihugu ku bw'imbohe+, maze abashira ku munara i Yeruzalemu kugira bagumeyo+.

54 Kandi mu mwaka wa mirongo itanu na gatatu+ mu kwezi kugira kabiri, Alcimu+ ategeka ko uruhome rw'ikigo c'imbere c'ahera+ rukurwaho+.

Yaraseguye kandi ibikorwa vy'abavugishwa n'Imana 55 Maze atangura kumanuka, mbere no muri ico gihe, Alcimusi yaragomvye+, kuko akanwa kiwe kahagaze, kaca gafatwa n'inkoho+ ku buryo atagishobora kuvuga ikintu na kimwe canke ngo atange itegeko ku nzu yiwe+.

56 Nuko Alcimus arapfa muri ico gihe, ababazwa cane.

57Bakidesi abonye ko Alkimu yapfuye, asubira ku mwami; igihugu ca Yudaya cari mu buruhukiro bw'imyaka ibiri.

58 Nuko abagabo bose bakora inama y'abatubaha Imana, bavuga bati: "Ehe Yonatani n'ishirahamwe ryiwe baratekanye, bakabaho ata co bitwara+; none ubu rero tuzozana Balcchide+, umwe azotwara bose mw'ijoro rimwe+.

59 Nuko baragenda, baja inama na we.

60 Maze amukurayo, hanyuma aza ari kumwe n'ingabo nyinshi+ maze arungika amakete ku bamukurikira i Yudaya+ kugira ngo bafate Yonatani n'abari kumwe na we; ntibabishoboye, kuko inama yabo yari izwi kuri bo+.

61Bafata abagabo bo muri ico gihugu, abo ni bo banditsi b'ubwo bukozi bw'ikibi, nk'abantu mirongo itanu, barabaca.

62 Inyuma y'ivyo, Yonatani na Simoni be n'abari kumwe na we+ babajana i Betibasi+ iri mu gahinga, maze barasanasana ivyatsi vyayo, barawukomeza.

63 Maze Bakidesi amenya, akoraniriza hamwe ingabo ziwe zose, arungika ubutumwa kuri bo abari i Yudaya+.

64 Maze aragenda, atangura gutera Betibasi+; Bari bamaze igihe kirekire barwana na yo, kandi bakora ibimota vy'intambara.

65 Mugabo Yonatani asiga Simoni mwene wabo mu gisagara, aja mu gihugu,+ na we adugana igitigiri+ c'abantu.

66 Maze ashira Odonarke na bene wabo na bene Fineasironi mw'ihema ryabo+.

67Atanguye kubakubita, adugana n'ingabo ziwe, Simoni na bagenziwe bava mu gisagara, baturira imiduga y'intambara.

68 Maze batangura kurwana na Bakidesi, umwe yankankanywe na bo, baramubabara cane+; kuko impanuro yiwe n'igikorwa ciwe cari impfagusa+.

69 Kubera ko yari inyosha mbi cane ku bantu b'ababisha+ bamugira inama yo kuza mu gihugu+, igihe yica benshi muri bo, kandi bafise umugambi wo gusubira mu gihugu ciwe+.

70Yonatani amaze kumenya, atumako abaserukira kuri we gushika ku mpera, kugira ngo abane amahoro na we, abakize imbohe.

71Ni co catumye yemera, akora ibihwanye n'ivyo yari yasavye, kandi akamwereka ko atazokwigera amugirira nabi imisi yose y'ubuzima bwiwe+.

72Amaze kumusubiriza mu banyororo yari yarakuye mu gihugu ca Yudaya, aragaruka, aja mu gihugu ciwe bwite, kandi ntiyasubiye gushika ku mbibe zazo.

73 Ukwo ni ko inkota ihera kuri Isirayeli+, mugabo Yonatani atangura kuba i Machma+, atangura kuganza abantu+. Maze arandura abantu b'abatubaha Imana, abakure mu Bisirayeli.

IKIGABANE CA 10 1 Mu mwaka ijana na mirongo itandatu, Alegizandere+ mwene Antiyokuyo yitwa Epifani, araduga afata Ptolemyida; kuko abantu bari bamuronse biciye ku ngoma.

2 Umwami Demetiriyo ngo avyumve, akoraniriza hamwe ingabo nyinshi cane, hanyuma atangura kumurwanya+.

3 Demetiriyo arungika amakete kuri Yonatani akoresheje amajambo y'urukundo+, kugira ngo amuhimbaze+.

4 Kuko yavuze ati: "Tubanze tugire amahoro na we imbere y'uko yifatanya natwe na Alegizandere+.

5 Azokwibuka ububi bwose twamukoreye+ no kurwanya bene wabo n'abantu biwe+.

6Ni co gituma yamuhaye ububasha bwo gukoraniriza hamwe ingabo n'ukugira ngo atange ibirwanisho, kugira ngo amufashe ku rugamba; ategeka kandi n'imbohe zari muri uwo munara kumutanga.

7 Maze Yonatani aza i Yeruzalemu, asoma za makete+ z'abantu bose n'abari ku munara.

8 Abari batekewe n'ubwoba, bumvise ko umwami yamuhaye ububasha bwo gukoraniriza hamwe ingabo+.

9 Mugabo bo kw'munara bashikirije imbohe zabo Yonatani+, hanyuma abashikiriza abavyeyi babo+.

10 Ivyo bishitse, Yonatani aguma i Yeruzalemu, atangura kwubaka no gusanasana+ ico gisagara.

11 Maze ategeka abakozi kwubaka impome n'umusozi Wa Siyoni be n'amabuye y'imisegetera+; Kandi barabikoze.

12 Maze ba kavamahanga bari mu bihome vy'igihome Bacchides yari yubatse, barahunga+.

13 Nk'uko umuntu wese yava mu kibanza ciwe, aja mu gihugu ciwe+.

14 Gusa i Betisura hari bamwe mu bahevye itegeko+ kandi amabwirizwa bagumaho, kuko cari ikibanza cabo c'ubuhungiro+.

15 Umwami Alegizandere+ amaze kwumva ivyo Demetiriyo yari yatumweko kuri Yonatani, babwirwa n'ibikorwa vy'intambara be n'ibikorwa vy'agatangaza yakoze, ivyo we na bene wabo bari barakoze n'umubabaro bari bafise.

16 Mugabo avuga ati: "Mbega tuzosanga uwundi muntu ameze gutyo? Ubu rero tuzobabera umugenzi n'umugenzi.

17 Ahejeje kwandika ikete, arungika kuri we, nk'uko ayo majambo abivuga, ati: 18Umwami Alegizanderemu abwira mwene wabo Yonatani, ati: 19 Twakwumvirije ivyawe, yuko uri umuntu w'ububasha bwinshi, kandi uhurira hamwe kugira ngo tube umugenzi wacu.

20 Ku bw'ivyo, turagusavye uno musi ngo abe umuherezi mukuru w'ihanga ryawe+ no kwitwa umugenzi w'umwami+.

Yaramurungitseko impuzu y'ibara ry'agahama n'urugori rw'inzahabu, kandi agusaba ngo tugumane ubugenzi bwacu.

21Nuko mu kwezi kugira indwi kw'umwaka w'ijana na mirongo itandatu, ku musi mukuru w'itaberenakulo, Yonatani yambara nya mpuzu yera, akoraniriza hamwe ingabo, ashira ibirwanisho vyinshi.

22 Demetiriyo yumvise, arababarira cane, avuga ati: 23 Ni igiki twakoze, yuko Alegizandere atubujije kugiranira ubucuti n'Abayuda kugira ngo twikomeze?

24 Nanje nzobarungikira amajambo y'indemesho+, ndabasezeranira icubahiro n'ingabirano+, kugira ngo nshobore kubafasha+.

25 Atuma rero kuri ivyo, ati: "Demetiriyo umwami w'Abayuda atuma ku bantu b'Abayuda kuramutsa+.

26 Ni co gituma mwazigamye amasezerano+, mugafatanya natwe mu bugenzi bwacu+, tutifatanije n'abansi bacu+, twaravyumvise kandi turanezerwa+.

27 Ni co gituma mubandanya kuba abizigirwa kuri twebwe+, kandi tuzoguhemba ku bw'ivyo mukora ku bwacu+.

28 Kandi azobaha ibigabu vyinshi+, kandi azobahe impembo+.

29 Ubu rero ndakwidegemvya+, kandi kubera mwebwe, ndabarekuye ku bw'amashimwe+ no ku migenzo y'umunyu+ no ku bw'amatagisi+.

30 Kandi ku bijanye n'ivyo nzoronka ku bw'igice ca gatatu canke imbuto+, n'ica kabiri c'ivyamwa vy'ibiti+ ndabirekura guhera uyu musi, kugira ngo ntibazojanwa mu gihugu c'Ubuyuda canke muri za ntwaro zitatu+ zariyongeyemwo mu gihugu ca Samariya n'i Galilaya+. kuva uyu musi, ibihe bitazoshira.

31 Nayo Yeruzalemu nagume ari beranda+ kandi n'abidegemvya+, ku mipaka yaco, bivuye ku icumi no ku vy'amashimwe+.

32 Nayo ku vy'umunara uri i Yeruzalemu+ ndawuhaye ububasha+ kandi ntange umuherezi mukuru, kugira ngo ashiremwo abantu bameze nk'abo azohitamwo kuzigama+.

33 Vyongeye, narashinze umwidegemvyo+ umwe wese mu Bayuda bari batwawe imbohe mu gihugu c'i Yudaya, mu gice cose c'ubwami bwanje+, kandi nzotuma n'abashingwanji banje bose baronka amashimwe, mbere n'inka zabo+.

34Kandi nzohimbaza imisi mikuru yose, amasabato, n'imisi mikuru n'imisi mikuru n'imisi mikuru, n'imisi itatu imbere y'uwo musi mukuru, n'imisi itatu inyuma y'uwo musi mukuru, hazoba umwidegemvyo wose n'umwidegemvyo ku Bayuda bose bari mu karere kanje.

35 Vyongeye, nta muntu n'umwe azoronka ubukuru bwo kwivanga canke ngo asambane ikintu na kimwe muri vyo+.

36 Nanje nzoguma mbona ko mu ngabo z'umwami hazoba abantu nk'ibihumbi mirongo itatu bo mu Bayuda bariha amahera, nk'uko biri mu ngabo z'umwami zose+.

37 Kandi muri bo hazoshirwa bamwe mu nkomezi z'umwami+ muri bo, bamwe bazoshikwa ku bijanye n'ivy'ubwami bwizigirwa+; kandi nzotuma abacungezi babo n'abaganza babo baba abaganza ubwabo, kandi bakurikiza amategeko yabo bwite+, nk'uko umwami yabitegetse mu gihugu c'i Yudaya+.

38 Nayo ku bijanye na za ntwaro zitatu+ zongewe i Yudaya zivuye mu gihugu c'i Samariya, zifadikanije na Yudaya+ kugira ngo zibone ko zitwarwa n'imwe, kandi ntizikwiye kugamburuka ubundi bubasha kuruta iy'umuherezi mukuru+.

39 Nayo Polemay 40 Kandi uko umwaka utashe, nzotanga amaskeli ibihumbi cumi na bitanu vy'ifeza ku bisohoka vy'umwami mu bibanza vy'imbombo+.

41Kandi izo ntwazangabo zose+ zitarishe nk'uko vyahora, ni co gituma zizotangwa ku bikorwa vy'urusengero.

42 Mugabo hejuru y'ivyo, amaskeli ibihumbi bitanu vy'ifeza+ bafatiye ku vyo bakoresheje urusengero buri mwaka, ni ko n'ivyo bintu bazorekurwa, kuko bategerezwa gusemerera abaherezi b'uwo musuku+ bakora+ ku musi ku 43 Kandi uwo wese azoba ari uwuhungira mu rusengero i Yeruzalemu canke akaba ari mu mwidegemvyo+ ku bijanye n'uguhabwa umwami canke ikindi kintu ico ari co cose, bagume bidegemvya, be n'ivyo bafise vyose mu karere kanje+.

44 Kuko n'inyubakwa be n'ugusanura ibikorwa vy'aheranda+ bizotangwa ku nkuru z'umwami+.

45 Egome, no ku bw'ukwubaka impome za Yeruzalemu be n'iyubakwa ry'uruhome rw'i Yeruzalemu+ no ku bijanye n'ibisagara bikikije,+ hazotangwa ibisohoka ku nkuru z'umwami, nk'uko no mu vyo kwubaka impome z'i Yudaya+.

46 Maze Yonatani n'abantu bumvise ayo majambo, ntibayaronse+, kuko bibuka ivyago bikomeye yakoze muri Isirayeli+. Kuko yababara cane.

47 Mugabo baranezerwa na Alegizandere+ kuko ari we yabanje gusangira na bo amahoro nyakuri, kandi bama ba confederates hamwe na we.

48 Mu nyuma bakoranira hamwe umwami Alegizandere+, bakambika i Demetriyo.

49 Ba bami babiri bamaze kuja ku rugamba, demetriyo barahunga, ariko Alegizandere aramukurikiye, arabatsinda.

50 Vyongeye, intambara irababara cane gushika izuba rirenge;Uwo musi Demetiriyo agandaguwe+.

51 Inyuma y'aho, Alegizandere atumako abaserukira kuri Ptolemee umwami wa Misiri, ashikiriza ubutumwa buvuye kuri ico kintu.

52 Kuko, nk'uko ndiko ndagaruka ku butaka bwanje+, ngashirwa mu ntebe y'ubwami y'abatsimvyi banje+, n'inganji y'inganji y'inganji+, ihindiwe Demetiriyo+, yongera kugarura igihugu cacu+.

53 Kuko inyuma y'aho jewe nafatanije na we kurwana na we, we n'ingabo ziwe bama badusumbishwa+, kugira ngo twicarane ku ntebe y'ubwami yiwe+.

54 None rero, dushire hamwe rero ishirahamwe ry'ugusangira+, kandi duhe umukobwa wawe ku mugore+, nanje nzoba umwana wawe mw'itegeko+, kandi nzoguhana na we nk'uko ubahiro cawe kingana+ n'icubahiro cawe.'

55 Maze umwami avuga ati: "Hahiriwe umusi wagarutse mu gihugu ca ba sogokuruza bawe+, kandi ukicara ku ntebe y'ubwami yabo+.

56 Ubu rero, nzokugira, nk'uko wandindikiye: Nimunkorane i Ptolemyy, kugira ngo tumbonane+. Nzokwabira umukobwa wanje, nk'uko ushaka.

57 Nuko Ptolemee ava mu Misiri ari kumwe n'umukobwa wiwe Cleopatra+, hanyuma bashika i Ptolemyais+ mu mwaka wa magana atatu na kabiri+.

58 Aho umwami Alegizanderi amusanga, aramuha umukobwa wiwe Cleopatra+, yongera ahimbaza ubugeni bwiwe i Polemayizeysiya+ n'ubuninahazwa bwinshi nk'uko abami bari.

59Umwami Alegizandere yari yandikiye Yonatani, ngo aje kumusanganira.

60Ni we aja i Putolemayy, aho yasanga abo bami babiri, abaha n'abagenzi babo ifeza n'inzahabu, n'inzahabu nyinshi, baronka ubutoni mu maso yabo.

61 Muri ico gihe, bamwe mu bagenzi b'Israyeli, abagabo b'ubuzima bubi+ bakoranira kuri we kugira bamwagirize+; mugabo umwami ntiyavyumva+.

62Ruta ivyo, umwami ategeka gukura impuzu ziwe, amwambika impuzu z'ibara ry'umuhondo; na bo barabikora.

63 Nuko atangura kwicara iruhande yiwe, maze abwira abaganwa biwe ati: "Nimugende, mubane na we hagati mu

gisagara, mutangaze ko ata muntu n'umwe amwidodombera+, kandi ntihagire umuntu n'umwe amugirira nabi ku bw'imvo iyo ari yo yose+.

64 Abamurega babonye ko atewe iteka nk'uko iryo tangazo ribimenyesha, bambaye impuzu y'umutamana w'umuhondo, barahunga bose+.

65 Umwami rero amushira icubahiro, amwandika mu bagenzi biwe b'agahebuza+, amugira ikiganzi+, amugira umutware w'inganji yiwe.

66 Inyuma y'ivyo, Yonatani asubira i Yeruzalemu amahoro n'umunezero+.

67 Mu bugororotsi+ no mu bugororotsi+; Umwaka ugira mirongo itatu na gatanu haza Demetiriyo mwene Demetiriyo, avuye i Kirete aja mu gihugu ca ba sekuruza.

68 Umwami Alegizandere yumvise avuga ati: "Aricuza cane, asubira muri Antiyokiya.

69 Demetiriyo amugira Apoloniyo buramatari wa Celosya+ umujenerali wiwe, umwe yakoraniriza hamwe ingabo nyinshi, akambira i Yaniya, atuma kuri Yonatani umuherezi mukuru ati: 70 Ni wewe wenyene umanika hejuru ngo uturwanye+,Nanje nd'agatwengo kubera wewe n'agakengerwe+;Kubera iki utwiha ububasha bwawe ku misozi+?

71 None rero, nimba wizigiye ububasha bwawe bwite+, ingo umanuke kuri twebwe mu gahinga+, ng'aho tugerageze ico kintu+; kuko jewe ndi kumwe n'ububasha bw'ibisagara+.

72 Musabe, mwige uwo ndi we+, n'abasigaye bafate umugabane wacu+, kandi bazokubwira yuko ikirenge canyu kidashobora kuguruka mu gihugu cabo+.

73 Kuko ubu ntuzoshobora kugumiza abagendera ku mafarasi+ n'ububasha buhambaye nk'ubwo mu gahingo+, aho amabuye canke ishamba bidashobora guhungirayo+.

74Yonatani yumvise ayo majambo ya Apoloni, aranyiganyiga cane, atora abagabo ibihumbi cumi, ava i Yeruzalemu, aho Simoni mwenewabo yamusanganira ngo amufashe.

75 Maze ashira amahema yiwe kuri Yopa+; 11 Nuko bamukura mu gisagara, kuko Apoloniyo yari afise ikirindiro+ muri ico gisagara.

76 Maze Yonatani atangura kugota+; igisagara kirekura umutima ugutinya+; nuko Yonatani atsinda Yopa+.

77 Apoloniyo ngo avyumve, yakira abagendera ku mafarasi ibihumbi bitatu, n'isinzi ry'amaguru, aja i Azoto nk'umwe agenda, amujana mu gahinga+. Kuko yari afise abagendera ku mafarasi menshi, uwo yizigira.

78 Maze Yonatani amukurikira ashika i Azoto+, aho ingabo zaciye zifatanya urugamba.

79Kandi Apoloniyo yari yasize abagendera ku mafarasi igihumbi mu gakarito.

80 Kandi Yonatani amenya ko hari igitero inyuma yiwe+; Kuko bari baterera mu nyenga y'indaro, bagaca baterera ibihindizo vy'abantu kuva mu gitondo gushika ku mugoroba.

81 Mugabo abantu barahagarara, nk'uko Yonatani yari yabategetse+; ukwo ni ko amafarasi y'abansi yari arushe+.

82 Maze azana Simoni ingabo ziwe, abashira imbere y'abagendera ku maguru+, kuko abagendera ku mafarasi bari bababajwe cane na we, barahunga+.

83 N'abagendera ku mafarasi na bo nyene bariko barasanzara mu gahinga, bahungira i Azoto+, baja i Betimoni+ urusengero rw'ikigirwamana cabo, ku bw'umutekano+.

84 Mugabo Yonatani adomeka umuriro kuri Azoto+ n'ibisagara bibukikije, ahitana iminyago yavyo+.

N'urusengero rwa Dagoni, hamwe n'abahungiramwo, aturira umuriro.

85 Gutyo, baraturirwa, bishwe n'inkota, abagabo ibihumbi umunani+.

86 Maze Yonatani akurayo ingabo ziwe, atangura gutera Asaloni+, aho abagabo b'ico gisagara baje kumusanganira n'inyosha nyinshi+.

87 Inyuma y'ivyo, Yonatani n'ingabo ziwe i Yeruzalemu, bafise imisahu y'isahu+.

19 Ivyo ni vyo Demetiriyo atangura kuganza mu mwaka amajana atatu na mirongo indwi+.

20 Muri ico gihe nyene, Yonatani akoraniriza hamwe abari i Yudaya ngo batore umunara wari i Yeruzalemu+ kandi akora ivyuma vyinshi vy'intambara.

21 Hanyuma haza abantu batibanga Imana, banka abantu babo bwite+, baja ku mwami, bamubwira yuko Yonatani yasugerejwe n'umunara+.

30Umwami Demetiriyo ahereza Yonatani mwenewabo Yonatani n'ihanga ry'Abayuda, baramuramutsa.

31 Turakurungikira ikopi y'ikete twandikiye muvyara wacu Lasthenes ku bijanye namwe, kugira ngo mubone.

36 Kandi nta kintu na kimwe kizokurwaho kuva ubu gushika igihe kitagira urugero+.

37 Ubu rero, murabe ko muriko mutanga ikopi y'ivyo bintu, mushikane kuri Yonatani+, kandi bishire ku musozi mweranda ahantu h'iboneke+.

38 Inyuma y'ivyo, umwami Demetiriyo+ abonye ko ico gihugu cari gitekanye imbere yiwe, kandi ko ata n'umwe arwanya, atuma ingabo ziwe zose mu kibanza ciwe, kiretse imigwi y'abanyamahanga yari yakoraniye mu bibanza vy'ubushuhe+; kandi ingabo zose za ba sekuruza baramwanka+.

39 Vyongeye, hari N'umwe muri Botephon+ yari afatanije na Alegizanderi, abona ko abari mu ngabo bose bidodombera Demetiriyo, baja i Simeliya+ umunyabibi+ adugana Antiyokiya+ mwene Alegizanderi+.

40 Nuko rero arababara cane kumukiza uwo musore Antiyokusi+ kugira ngo ashobore kuganza mu kibanza ca se+; amubwira rero ivyo Demetiriyo yakoze vyose, n'ingene abantu biwe b'intambara bari bafatanije na we, kandi yahamaze igihe kirekire.

41 Mu gihe caco, Yonatani atuma ku mwami Demetiriyo ngo yirukane abo munara bave i Yeruzalemu be n'abari mu bisagara vy'i Yeruzalemu+, kuko barwanye Isirayeli+.

42 Demetiriyo atuma rero kuri Yonatani ati: "Ibi si vyo gusa nzobikorera abantu bawe n'abantu bawe+, ahubwo nzokwubaha cane n'igihugu cawe+ n'igihugu cawe ni ho nzogikorera."

43 None rero, uzokora neza, niwatuma abantu ngo bamfashe+.

Kuko ingabo zanje zose zavuye kuri jewe+.

44 Nuko Yonatani amutumako abagabo ibihumbi bitatu b'abanyenkomezi i Antiyokiya; maze bashika ku mwami, yarahimbawe cane no kuza kwabo+.

45 Mbega ukuntu abo muri nya gisagara bakoranira hagati mu gisagara+, gushika ku gitigiri c'abantu ibihumbi ijana na mirongw'ijana na mirongw'ibiri, kandi umwami yokwishe+.

46Ariko umwami ahungira mu kigo, ariko bo mu gisagara bagumana ibice vy'igisagara, batangura kurwana.

47 Maze umwami ahamagara Abayuda ngo bamufashe, bano nyene baje kuri we bose, maze kuri uwo musi bashwiragiza baciye muri nya gisagara, bica bica abantu ibihumbi ijana+ muri nya gisagara, bashikana igitigiri c'ibihumbi ijana+.

49 Maze babonye ko Abayuda bashitse ico gisagara nk'uko bavyiyumvira, umutima rugabo wabo ucika uhera; nuko batangura gutakambira umwami, bavuga bati: "Ni ukuri, ni ukuri, ni ukuri, 50Duhe amahoro, Abayuda bareke kutugirira nabi, twe n'igisagara.

51 Nuko baterera ibirwanisho vyabo, bakora amahoro+.

Abayuda baninahazwa mu maso y'umwami no mu maso y'abari mu bibanza vyiwe vyose. Basubira i Yeruzalemu bafise iminyago ikomeye.

52 Umwami Demetiriyo rero yicara ku ntebe y'ubwami bwiwe,Igihugu kiguma gitekanye imbere yiwe+.

53 Yamara rero, yamye adohoka mu vyo yavuga vyose+, atandukana na Yonatani+, kandi ntiyamuhaye impera yisunze ivyiza yari yaronse+, mugabo ahagarika umutima cane+.

58Ni co gituma amutumako ibikoresho vy'inzahabu, akamuha kunywera mu nzahabu, no kwambara impuzu y'umushatsi w'inyambarabami y'inzahabu.

59 Simoni mwene wabo na we nyene amugira umukuru w'icicaro c'ubukuru+ bw'i Tiru+ gushika ku mbibe za Misiri.

60 Maze Yonatani aragenda, aciye mu bisagara biri hakurya y'amazi+, inteko zose z'Abanyasiriya zikorana kuri we kugira ngo zimufashe+; ashitse i Asaloni, igisagara baramusangana iteka+.

61Avuye igihe yaja i Gaza, ariko gaza baramwugara. Ni co gituma yaciye ashira mu kuzimu, aca ashira mu micungararo y'igisagara, arasambuka.

62 Inyuma y'ivyo, igihe abo muri Gaza batabaza+ Yonatani, amarana na bo amahoro na bo, ahitana abahungu b'abagabo babo b'abagabo babo b'inkoho, abarungika i Yeruzalemu, hanyuma aciye mu gihugu aja i Damasiko+.

63Yonatani yumvise ko abaganwa ba Demetiriyo bashika i Cades, iri i Galilaya, bafise ububasha bwinshi, ngo bamukure mu gihugu.

64Aragenda kubasanganira, asiga Simoni mwene wabo mu gihugu.

65 Maze Simoni akambira i Betisura, arwana na co igihe kirekire, arawugaragura+.

66 Mugabo baripfuje kubana na we amahoro+ na we, ayo yabahaye, hanyuma babakura mu gisagara, bashinga ikirindiro muri co+.

67 Nayo Yonatani n'ingabo ziwe, baraheza bashira ku mazi y'i Genneari+, kuva mu gatondo ko ku mpera z'igitondo babaha gushika ku kagezi ka Nasori+.

68 Maze, ehe ingabo z'abantu zitamenyekana zisanganira mu gahinga+, zino zashize abantu mu gasozi k'imisozi, zitangura kumurwanya+.

69 Nuko igihe rero abarambika mu bibanza vyabo bari batonze urugamba, abari mu ruhande rwa Yonatani bose barahunga+.

70 Nk'uko ata n'umwe muri bo yari asigaye+, kiretse Matatiyasi mwene Abusalomu na Yuda+ mwene Kalfi, umukuru w'ingabo.

71 Maze Yonatani agura impuzu ziwe+, aterera isi ku mutwe wiwe, arasenga+.

72 Inyuma y'aho, asubira ku rugamba, abajana mu kuguruka, baca barahunga.

73 Mugabo abantu biwe bahunze babibonye, barasubira inyuma barahindukirana na we, barabakurikirana gushika i Cades, gushika no ku mahema yabo bwite+, kandi ni ho bakambitse+.

74 Kuri uwo musi, abantu nk'ibihumbi bitatu baragandaguwe, mugabo Yonatani asubira i Yeruzalemu+.

IKIGABANE CA 12 1Yonatani abonye ico gihe amukorera, aca atora abantu bamwe, abarungika i Roma, kugira ngo bashasha ubucuti bari bafitaniye na bo.

2 Arungika n'amakete ku ba lacedoni+ be n'ahandi ku bw'iyo ntumbero nyene.

3 Nuko baja i Roma, binjira mu nama nkenguzamateka, bavuga bati: "Umuherezi mukuru Yonatani+ n'abantu b'Abayuda, baturungitseko, gushika ku mpera+ mugize ubugenzi mufitaniye na bo no mu vy'ubuganji+ nk'uko vyari kera.

4Ni co gituma Abaroma bahaye amakete abatware b'ahantu hose, ngo babajane mu gihugu c'i Yudaya mu mahoro.

5 Iki ni co cibuguro c'amakete Yonatani yandikiye Abanyasaziniya+, 6 Mugabo umuherezi mukuru Yonatani+ n'abagabo b'inararibonye b'ihanga+ n'abaherezi n'abandi Bayuda, ku banyeshure b'i Lacedoni+, bene wabo baraheza baramutsa+.

7 Mu bihe vya kera, hari amakete yarungitswe kuri Onyi+ umuherezi mukuru Dariyo+ ari we aganza hagati muri mwebwe, kugira ngo avuge yuko muri bene wacu, nk'uko vyandiko vyanditswe n'iki gitabu kivyerekana.

8 Ico gihe Oniasi yaratumiye uwo muserukira+ yatumwe n'icubahiro+ maze aronka nya makete, ari na ho ingingo zari zigizwe n'ubugenzi n'ubucuti.

9 Ni co gituma natwe ubwacu tudakeneye ivyo bintu+ yuko dufise ibitabo vyeranda vy'ivyanditswe mu kuboko kwacu kugira biduhoze+.

10Ariko mwagerageje kubarungikira kugira ngo muronke ubugenzi musha n'ubugenzi, kugira ngo ntiducike ba kavamahanga kuri mwebwe; kuko kuva aho mwarungitse haracariho igihe kirekire.

11Nuko rero, igihe cose tutagira agatosi, haba mu misi mikuru yacu no mu yindi misi yoroshe, murabibutsa mu bimazi duherezako, no mu masengesho yacu, nk'uko biyumvira bene wacu.

12 Kandi turahimbarwa n'ubuninahazwa bwawe+.

13 Nayo twebwe, twaragize amarushwa akomeye n'intambara impande zose+, kuko twambara nk'abami badukinyiye irya n'ino+.

14 Ese ukuntu tutabatera amaganya, canke n'abandi bo mu bagenzi bacu n'abagenzi bacu+, muri izi ntambara+.

15 Kuko twafashije ivuye mw'ijuru itujako+, ni ko nk'uko twakuwe mu bansi bacu+, abansi bacu na bo bakajanwa munsi y'ibirenge+.

16Ni co catumye twihitiramwo Numeniyo mwene Antiyokusi, na Antipatri mwene Yasoni, hanyuma tubarungikira Abaroma, kugira ngo basubire kugira ubuhirwe twari dufise hamwe na bo, n'ubwa mbere bw'ishengero.

17 Na bo nyene twabategetse ngo bagende i mwebwe+ no kumuramutsa no kubashikiriza amakete yacu yerekeye uguhindurwa kw'abavukanyi bacu.

18Ariko ubu muzoba mukoze neza, kugira ngo mutwishura.

19 Kandi ng'iyi ni yo y'ikete Oniare yandikiye.

20 Areyo umwami w'i Lacedemoni+ aja ku muherezi mukuru Oni, aramutsa+.

21 Mugabo mu vyanditswe, yuko Abanyazimoni n'Abayuda ari abavukanyi+ be n'uko ari abo mu migabane ya Aburahamu+.

22 Ubu rero, ko ivyo vyashitse ku bumenyi bwacu+, muzoba mukoze neza ngo mutwandikire ku vyerekeye ukuroranirwa kwanyu+.

23 Turasubiriye kubandikira, yuko ibitungwa vyawe n'ivyacu ari ivyacu+, kandi ko ari ivyacu, ni vyo dutegeka rero abaserukira bacu ngo babashikire amakuru y'abo bantu b'inkerebutsi+.

24 Mugabo Yonatani yumvise ko Abaganwa Ba Demmebi+ baje kumurwanya+ n'ingabo nyinshi kuruta uko bari bavyiteze+.

25 Nuko ava i Yeruzalemu, abasanganira mu gihugu c'Amati+; kuko ata co yabaha ngo binjire mu gihugu ciwe+.

26 Atuma n'abatasi ku mahema yabo, na bo nyene baraza, bamubwira ko bashinzwe kuza kuri bo mu gihe c'ijoro+.

27 Mugabo izuba rikimara kumanuka, Yonatani abwira ingabo ziwe ngo zibe maso, zibe mu maboko, kugira ngo zibe ziteguye kurwana ijoro ryose, na zo zirungikiye imisusu y'ingabo+ ku bijanye n'ingabo.

28 Mugabo abarwanizi bumvise ko Yonatani n'abantu biwe bari biteguye kurwana, baratinya, bajugumira mu mitima yabo, bajugumira mu nsago zabo+.

29 Ukuntu Yonatani n'ishirahamwe ryiwe batari babizi gushika mu gitondo+, kuko babonye nya muco ukeye+.

30 Maze Yonatani abakurikirana, ariko ntabatsinda; kuko bari bacitse hejuru y'uruzi Eleuthero.

31Yonatani ahindukirira Abarabu, bitwa Zabadeani, abatora iminyago yabo.

32Amukurayo, ashika i Damasiko, aca mu gihugu cose.

33Simoni na we aragenda, anyura mu gihugu aja i Asloni, n'ibiziga vyaho, ava aho ahindukirira i Yopa, arawutsinda.

34 Kuko yari yarumvise ko bazogakiza abajanye Demetiriyo+.

Yarashizeho icuma c'igisiyo kugira ngo kigume.

35 Inyuma y'ivyo, Yonatani asubira iwe, ahamagara abagabo b'inararibonye b'ishengero, atangura inama na bo ku bijanye no kwubaka inkomezi i Yudaya+, 36 Kandi mubandanye guhindura impome za Yeruzalemu+, kandi mubandanye kuduga umusozi munini hagati y'umunara n'igisagara, kugira ngo mugitandukanye n'igisagara, kugira

37 Amaherezo bakoranira hamwe kugira ngo bashinge nya gisagara+, kuko igice c'uruhome kija ku mwonga co mu buseruko kigwa hasi, maze barasanasana ico citwa Caphenata+.

38Kandi Simoni na we ashinga Adida i Sefela, ay'inkomezi z'amarembo n'ibihindizo.

39 Tomaphon aragenda kurondera ubwami bwa Aziya no kwica Antiyokusi umwami, kugira ngo yishire ku mutwe wiwe urugori.

40 Yari afise ubwoba bw'uko Yonatani atazomushikirwa n'imibabaro+ be n'uko yomurwanya+. Yaciye arondera ingene yofata Yonatani, kugira ngo amwice. Nuko arakura, ashika i Betisani.

41 Maze Yonatani atangura kumusanganira n'abagabo ibihumbi mirongo ine batowe ku rugamba, bashika i Betisani+.

42 Tiyophoni abonye Yonatani aje afise inguvu nyinshi gutyo, ntiyaramvuye ukuboko ngo amurwanye+.

43 Mugabo aramwakirana icubahiro+, yongera ashimira abagenzi biwe bose+, amuha ingabirano+ yongera ategeka abantu biwe b'intambara kugamburuka nk'uko ubwiwe yiyumvira+.

44 Maze Yonatani abwira Yonatani ati: "Kubera iki wazanye aba bantu bose mu marushwa akomeye gutyo+, kuko ata ntambara iriho?

45 Ubu rero, babarungike i muhira, mutore abagabo bakeyi+ baze i Polemeyy, kuko ari jewe nzobiguha+ n'abandi banyeshure n'abafise ububasha n'ububasha bwose+ n'ivyo mfise vyose: ku bijanye na jewe, nzogaruka nkavayo, kuko iki ari co gitumye nza kuza kwanje+.

46 Yonatani rero aremera ko yakoze nabi+, arungika ingabo ziwe, zija mu gihugu c'i Yudaya+.

47Agumana na we ubwiwe, mugabo abantu ibihumbi bitatu, arungika i Galilaya ibihumbi bibiri, n'abantu igihumbi barajana na we.

48 Yonatani ashitse i Polemay, baca yugara amarembo, baramufata+ n'abazananye na we bose bica inkota.

49 Maze arungika ingabo z'abagendera ku maguru n'abagendera ku mafarasi i Galilaya no mu caka kinini, kugira ngo zitikize ikompanyi ya Yonatani yose+.

50 Mugabo igihe bamenya ko Yonatani n'abari kumwe na we bajanwa, bagandaguwe+, bararemeshanya+. Bashitseyo, bariteguriye kurwana.

51 Nuko rero ababakurikiye, babona ko biteguriye kurwanira ubuzima bwabo, basubira inyuma.

52 Amaherezo bose bashika mu gihugu c'I Yudaya mu mahoro+ kandi ni ho baheza batangura babaza Yonatani n'abari kumwe na we, mugabo baratinya cane+. Israyeli yose yarateye akamo k'intimba.

IKIGABANE CA 13 1Simoni amaze kwumva ko Tesiyophoni yakoranije ingabo nyinshi kugira ngo zije gutera igihugu c'ubuyuda, maze arirandura.

2 Maze abona abantu bariko barajugumira cane, batinya+, aduga i Yeruzalemu, akoraniriza abantu hamwe+.

3Bahanura, babahanura bati: "Mwebwe ubwanyu muzi ivyo jewe na bene wacu n'abo mu nzu ya dawe bakoze ku bw'amategeko n'aheranda, intambara n'amagorwa twabonye.

4 Ni co gituma bene wacu bose bishwe ku bwa Isirayeli+, nanje nkaba nsigaye ndi jenyene+.

5 None rero, vyoba ari kure yanje+, kugira ngo nshobore kwikiza ubuzima bwanje mu gihe c'amarushwa+, kuko ntaruta bene wacu+.

6 Nzokwihora ihanga ryanje+ n'ahantu heranda+ be n'abagore bacu n'abana bacu+; kuko ubushuhe bwose buriko bukoranirizwa hamwe kugira ngo buduhonye+.

7 Abantu bakimara kwumva ayo majambo, impwemu yabo isubira kugaruka+.

8 Na bo babishura n'ijwi rirenga bati: "Utegerezwa kuba indongozi yacu, aho kuba yuda na Yonatani mwene wanyu."

9 Murwanye intambara zacu+, kandi ico cose udutegeka ni co tuzogikora+.

10 Nuko akoraniriza hamwe abantu bose b'intambara+ maze yihuta kugira ngo arangize impome za Yeruzalemu+ maze ayikikuzako uruhome+.

11 Arungika kandi Yonatani mwene Abusolom+ n'ububasha bwinshi, kuri Yopa+; abashira hanze abari ng'aho bagumayo+.

12 Tomamu+ amukura i Ptolemayo n'ububasha bukomeye bwo gutera igihugu c'i Yudaya+ kandi Yonatani yari kumwe na we mu bugwati+.

13Ariko Simoni ashikama amahema yiwe i Adida, hejuru y'ikiyaya c'ubuyayaragwa.

14 Tryphoni amenya ko Simoni yahagurutse aho kuba mwene wabo Yonatani, arondera kuja kurwana na we, amutumako intumwa, ati: 15Ni co gituma dufise Yonatani mwene wanyu, ni co gituma afitiye itunga ry'umwami, ku bijanye n'igikorwa cakozwe kuri we.

16 Ubu rero, arungike italanto ijana z'ifeza+ na zibiri mu bahungu biwe, kugira ngo niyamara kwidegemvya+ ntazodugarariza+ natwe tuzomurekura+.

18Ni nde yoshobora kuvuga ati: 'Ni uko atari amahera namurungitseko, n'abana, ni co gituma Yonatani yapfuye.'

19 Arungika rero abana n'italanto ijana+ ati: "Tryiyophoni, ntiyareka Yonatani ngo agende+.

20 Inyuma y'ivyo, Tryeti+ atangura gutera ico gihugu, akaja irya n'ino inzira ija i Adora+; mugabo Simoni n'ingabo ziwe baja kumurwanya hose+ ahantu hose.

21 Mugabo abari aho uwo munara barungika intumwa i Tryphoni, kugira ngo ahevye kuza kuri bo biciye mu gahinga, azirungike mu buja.

22 Mugabo Tesiyophoni ategura abagendera ku mafarasi biwe bose ngo baze kuza muri iryo joro+, mugabo hagwa urubura rwinshi cane, ku bw'aho ataje+. Nuko aragenda, ashika mu gihugu c'i Galatiya.

23Ashitse i Bascama, aramwica Yonatani, uwari ahambwamwo.

24 Inyuma y'ivyo, Tryphoni aragaruka, aja mu gihugu ciwe bwite+.

25 Nuko atuma Simoni, atora amagufa ya Yonatani+ mwene wabo, hanyuma azihamba i Modini, igisagara ca ba sekuruza.

26 Nuko Isirayeli yose imuboroga+, kandi amukorera imisi myinshi+.

27Kandi Simoni yubaka icibutso ku mva ya se na bene wabo, anawugurura mu maso, n'ibuye ryabibwe inyuma n'imbere yayo.

28Kandi ashinga za pyramide indwi, imwe irwanya urundi, ku bwa se na nyina, n'abavukanyi biwe bane.

29 Kandi muri ivyo akora ibikoresho vy'ubujumbu+, ivyo yashinze inkingi nini+ be n'inkingi z'inkingi, ashinga ibirwanisho vyazo vyose kugira ngo bibuke ibihe bidashira+

30 Iyi ni yo mva yakoze i Modini+, kandi irahagarara gushika n'ubu+.

31 E tryphoni acihenda omu mwami Antiyokusi, acicirhe.

32 Nuko atangura kuganza mu kibanza ciwe+, yimbika urugori umwami wa Aziya+, kandi azanira igihugu icago gikomeye+.

33 Maze Simoni yubaka inkomezi z'i Yudaya, azishingako iminara ikomakomeye, n'impome nini n'amarembo, n'ibihindizo, ashira ng'aho.

34Kandi Simoni atora abantu, arungika ku mwami Demetiriyo, kugira ngo aheze ahe igihugu ubudahangarwa, kuko ivyo Tryetili yakoze vyose vyari ivy'uguhonyanga+.

35 Umwami Demetiriyo ni nde, ni we yavyanditse, ati: 36Umwami Demetiriyo, abwira Simoni umuherezi mukuru, incuti y'abami, kimwe n'abagabo b'inararibonye n'ihanga ry'Abayuda, baramuramutsa.

37 Urugori rw'inzahabu+ n'impuzu y'agahama mwadutumyeko, twaronse; kandi twiteguriye kubana namwe amahoro y'agasozo+, egome, no kwandikira abakozi bacu+, kugira ngo tuyemeze neza ivy'imibiri yacu+.

38 Kandi amasezerano cose twagiranye namwe ni yo azorama+. Kandi abafise ububasha, ivyo wubaka ni vyo bizoba ivyanyu.

39 Nayo ku bijanye n'ikintu cose co kugambuga canke ikosa iryo ari ryo ryose ryakozwe gushika n'uyu musi, turaribabarira+ be n'ikori ry'urugori+, iryo mufitiye umwenda+; kandi nimba hari ikindi mpembo+ i Yeruzalemu, ntikizokwongera guhembwa+.

40 Vyongeye, ehe muri mwebwe hari uwuhuriyeko ngo abe mu kigo cacu+, ni muze twiyandikishije, tugire amahoro+.

41 Ukwo ni ko ingǒgo y'ubushuhe yakurwaho muri Isirayeli mu mwaka w'ijana na mirongo indwi+.

42 Nuko bene Isirayeli batangura kwandika mu bicurarangisho vyabo+, mu mwaka wa mbere wa Simoni umuherezi mukuru, umukuru akaba n'umukuru+ w'Abayuda.

43 Muri iyo misi, Simoni yarakambitse arwanya Gaza, arawukikiza irya n'ino+; Akora n'imoteri y'intambara, ayishira iruhande y'igisagara, aturira umunara kanaka, arawutora.

44 Kandi abari mu mu moteri+ barasimbata mu gisagara+; Muri ico gisagara harabaye icuka kibi gikomeye: 45 Nk'uko abantu b'igisagara bagura impuzu zabo, bakaduga ku mpome hamwe n'abagore babo n'abana babo, basemerera n'ijwi rirenga, batakambira Simoni ngo abaha amahoro+.

46 Na bo bavuga bati: "Ntuze udukize ibihwanye n'ububi bwacu, ahubwo uvyisunga nk'uko imbabazi zawe kugirirwa."

47Simoni aca arabarabaraba, ata co abarwanira, ahubwo abakura mu gisagara, ahumamanura amazu ibigirwamana vyarimwo ibigirwamana, gutyo abinjizemwo indirimbo n'ugukenguruka.

48 Egome, abishiramwo ubuhumane bwose+, ashira ng'aho abantu nk'uko bogumiza ng'aho itegeko+, maze arushiriza kuba inkomezi kuruta uko vyari kera, yubakayo ikibanza co kubamwo+.

49 Na bo nyene i Yeruzalemu bararigumya ku buryo badashobora gusohoka canke ngo baje mu gihugu+ canke ngo bagure canke kugurike+; kuko bari mu marushwa menshi kubera ivyipfuzo vy'intambara+, kandi benshi muri bo barahitanywe n'ikigoyi+.

50 Maze baguma batakambira Simoni ngo abane na bo, ico yabahebera+. Amaze kubakura mu mihana, yaciye amanura umunara w'ivyatsi vy'ivyatsi+ vy'ivyatsi+.

51 Maze mu mwaka ugira mirongo ibiri na kabiri w'ukwezi kwa kabiri, mu mwaka ugira mirongo irindwi na rimwe, mu gukenguruka, n'amashami y'ibiti vy'ibigazi, inanga

n'ibicurarangisho, n'ibicurarangisho, n'indirimbo n'indirimbo, kuko muri Isirayeli hahonya umwansi akomeye.

52 Nuko ashinga ko uwo musi uhimbazwa uko umwaka utashe. Vyongeye, uwo musozi w'urusengero yari iruhande y'uwo munara, yarusha inguvu uwo munara, kandi ni ho yibana n'ishirahamwe ryiwe.

53 Simoni abonye ko yohani umwana wiwe yari intwari, amugira umukuru w'ingabo zose. Kandi ashika i Gazera.

IKIGABANE CA 14 1 Nuko mu mwaka ugira mirongo itatu na rimwe, umwami Demetiriyo+ akoranira hamwe ingabo ziwe, aja mu Bumedi kugira ngo amufashe kurwanya Tryphone.

2 Mugabo Arsaki+ umwami w'Ubuperesi+ n'Ubumedi+ yumvise ko Demetiriyo yinjiye mu mipaka yiwe, atuma umwe mu baganwa biwe ngo amujane ari muzima+.

3 Ni nde yagiye gusya inyenga ya Demetiriyo+, aramudugana, amuzana i Arsito+, uwo yari yashizwe mu kibanza c'ubuzi+.

4 Nayo ku vy'igihugu ca Yudaya+ cari gitekanye imisi yose ya Simoni+; Kuko yarondeye iciza c'ihanga ryiwe mu bukerebutsi, nk'uko ubukuru bwiwe buzokwamaho kandi akabahimbara rwose.

5 Kandi nk'uko yagirwa n'icubahiro mu bikorwa vyiwe vyose, ni ko yatwara Yopa ku bw'inkona+, yinjira mu biyaga vyo mu kiyaga+.

6 Maze bagura imibobo y'ihanga ryaco+, maze basubirana igihugu+, 7 Bakoraniriza hamwe imbohe nyinshi+, kandi bafise inganji ya Gazera n'i Betisura n'umunara yakuramwo abahumanye bose, kandi nta n'umwe yamwanka+.

8 Maze batangura rero gushika kw'ubutaka bwabo bw'amahoro+, isi na yo iguma igwira+, n'ibiti vyo mu gahinga vyama ivyamwa vyavyo+.

9 Abagabo ba kera bari bicaye mu mabarabara yose+, bagafatanya ibintu vyiza+, kandi imisore na yo yambara ivyambarwa vy'ubuninahazwa n'intambara+.

10 Atangura kuronsa ibisagara+, abishinga imburi z'ubwoko bwose+, kugira ngo izina ryiwe ry'icubahiro ryamenywe gushika ku mpera y'isi+.

11 Aremesha amahoro mu gihugu+, maze Isirayeli inezerwa n'umunezero mwinshi+.

12 Kuko umuntu wese yicara munsi y'umuzabibu wiwe n'igiti ciwe c'umusukoni, kandi nta n'umwe yari ahari ngo abimane.+ 13 Nta n'umwe muri ico gihugu yari asigaranye ngo abarwanye+; emwe, abami ubwabo barahindiwe muri iyo misi+.

14 Vyongeye, arakomeza abo mu bantu biwe bose bari batobato+; itegeko ni ryo yasekura+. N'umugororotsi wese wo mw'Itegeko n'umunyakibi, arakurayo+.

15 Nuko ashasha aheranda+, agwiza n'ibikoresho vyo mu rusengero+.

16 Mugabo igihe cumvikanwa i Roma+ no gushika i Sparta, yuko Yonatani yapfuye, barababara cane+.

17 Mugabo bahejeje kwumva yuko Simoni mwene wabo yagizwe umuherezi mukuru mu kibanza ciwe, atwara igihugu n'ibisagara vyaho.

18Bamwandikiye ku meza y'umujumpu, kugira ngo basubire kuvyura ubucuti n'ubucuti bari bafitaniye na Yuda na Yonatani benewabo.

19 Ni ibintu vyandikano vyasomewe imbere y'ishengero ry'i Yeruzalemu.

20 Kandi iki ni co cibuguro c'amakete y'ikete ry'ikete ryarungitsweko+; Abaganwa b'i Lacedemoniya bari kumwe n'igisagara, bashikiriza Simoni umuherezankuka mukuru

n'abagabo b'inararibonye n'abaherezi n'ibisagara vy'Abayuda, bene wacu, babarungikira ikaze.

21Kandi ba ambasaderi barungitswe mu bantu bacu, baratwizera ubuninahazwa bwawe n'icubahiro vyanyu; kuko twahimbawe no kuza kwabo.

22 Kandi ni vyo biyandikishije ivyo bashira mu nama y'abantu muri ubwo buryo+. Numeniyo mwene Antiyokusi na Antiyokusi, na Antipater mwene Yasoni, abaserukira Abayuda, baraje kudutohosha ubugenzi bari badufitaniye.

23 Kandi biranezereye abantu kunezereza nya bantu+, no gushira ikopi y'ibigirankana ryabo mu bibanza vy'ibwina+, gushika aho abantu b'Abanyazidoni bashobora kuba bafise icibutso c'icibutso+; vyongeye, twandikiye Simoni umuherezi mukuru+.

24 Inyuma y'ivyo, Simoni arungika Numeniyo i Roma inkinzo y'inzahabu y'inzahabu y'ibiro igihumbi, kugira ngo atume iyo shampiyona iri kumwe na bo.

25 Mugabo abantu bumvise, bavuga bati: "Dukenguruka iki Simoni n'abahungu biwe?"

26 Kuko we n'abavukanyi biwe n'inzu ya se bashimangiye Isirayeli+, kandi barahunga+ mu kurwanya abansi babo+, kandi bakemeza umwidegemvyo wabo+.

27 Nuko babiyandikira ku meza y'umujumpu, ivyo bashira ku nkingi ku musozi Sioni+; kandi iki ni co candiko c'icanditswe+. Ku musi ugira cumi n'umunani w'ukwo kwezi kwa Eluli, mu mwaka amajana atatu na cumi na kabiri, uba umwaka ugira gatatu wa Simoni, umuherezankuka mukuru.

28 I Sarayimeli+ mw'ishengero rinini ry'abaherezi n'abantu n'abakuru b'igihugu+ n'abakuru b'igihugu+ baratumenyesheje ivyo bintu+.

29 Kuko imisi yose muri ico gihugu habaye intambara zikomeye mu gihugu+, aho kugira ngo ibibanza vy'aheranda+ vyabo bihagarikwe+ be n'itegeko+ ari vyo Simoni mwene Matiyasi+ mwene Matiyasi+ ari kumwe n'abavukanyi biwe, yishira mu ngoyi+ be n'abansi b'igihugu cabo+.

30 Kuko inyuma y'aho Yonatani akoranya ihanga ryiwe+ maze aba umuherezi mukuru wabo+, yongerako abantu biwe+.

31 Abansi babo biteguriye gutera igihugu cabo+, kugira ngo bahone+, bashire ibiganza ku heranda+.

32 Muri ico gihe nyene, Simoni arahaguruka, arwanira ihanga ryiwe, agaha igice kinini c'abantu b'intwari bo mu gihugu ciwe, abaha impembo+.

33 Maze ibihome vy'ibisagara vy'Ubuyuda, hamwe na Betisura+ vyari ku mbibe z'I Yudaya, aho ibirwanisho vy'abansi vyari vyahora kera. Aho ni ho yashinga ikori ry'Abayuda, 34Kandi akubita ibihome i Yopa, iri ku kiyaga na Gazera, ihana na Azoto, aho abansi bari bari bacumbitse; mugabo ashirayo Abayuda, abishiramwo ibintu vyose bishirwa mu buryo bworoshe.

35 Nuko abantu batangura kuririmba ibikorwa vya Simoni+ n'ubuninahazwa yiyumviriye kuzana ihanga ryiwe+, bamugira buramatari wabo akaba n'umuherezi mukuru, kuko yari yarakoze ivyo vyose+ n'ubutungane n'ukwizera yagumije ihanga ryiwe+ no ku bw'ivyo yarondeye vyose ngo ashire hejuru abantu biwe+.

36 Kuko mu gihe ciwe ibintu vyamutsitaye mu kuboko kwiwe+, kugira ngo ubushuhe buve mu gihugu cabo, na bo nyene bari mu gisagara ca Dawidi i Yeruzalemu, umwe yari yarashinze umunara+ muri wo, muri wo basohora, bagahumanya ibintu vyose vy'aheranda+, kandi bibabaza cane ahantu heranda+.

37 Mugabo ashirayo Abayuda. Maze baragikingira kubera umutekano w'igihugu n'igisagara, maze bavyura impome za Yeruzalemu.

38 Umwami Demetiriyo+ na we amwimika mu buherezi bw'ubuherezi bukwiranye n'ivyo bintu.

39 Maze amugira umwe mu bagenzi biwe+, amuhe icubahiro gikomeye+.

40 Kuko yari yarumvise avuga yuko Abaroma bahamagara Abayuda incuti zabo, n'aba Confederates na bene wabo+.

N'uko bakiriye neza intumwa za Simoni; 41 Vyongeye, Abayuda n'abaherezi baranezerwa rwose kubona Simoni ategerezwa kuba umukuru wabo n'umuherezi mukuru gushika igihe kitagira urugero, gushika aho hazoduka umuhanuzi w'umwizigirwa+.

42 Vyongeye, kugira ngo abe umukuru wabo+ kandi ahagarike ikibanza ceranda+, kugira ngo abishire ku bikorwa vyabo+ no ku gihugu no ku ngabo z'ibirwanisho+ no hejuru y'igihome gikomeye+, kugira ngo mvuga nti: 'Azotwara ahera+.

43 Ikigeretseko, ni uko yogamburukira umuntu wese+ be n'uko ivyanditswe vyose vyo mu gihugu bigirwa mw'izina ryiwe, be n'uko akwiye kwambara impuzu y'umuhondo, yambaye inzahabu+.

44 Vyongeye, birarekuriwe ko ata n'umwe mu bantu canke abaherezi amenagura ikintu na kimwe muri ivyo, canke ngo avuge amajambo yiwe canke gukoraniriza ishengero mu gihugu ata we, canke ngo yambaye impuzu y'umushaha, canke ngo yambaye agahuzu k'inzahabu+.

45Kandi umuntu wese azokora ukundi, canke ahende ikintu na kimwe muri ivyo, ahanwe.

46Ni co catuma abantu bose bahangana na Simoni, no kugira nk'uko vyavuzwe.

47 Simoni aremera ng'aho, arahimbarwa no kuba umuherezi mukuru, umukuru akaba n'umukuru w'Abayuda n'abaherezi, no kubaburanira bose.

48 Nuko bashinga itegeko ryo gushira mu bibanza vy'umujumpu+ be n'uko bashizwe mu nkono y'ahera mu kibanza c'iboneka+.

49 Kugira ngo amakopi yavyo ashikirizwe mw'ishikaniro ry'ishikaniro+, kugira ngo simoni n'abahungu biwe babironke.'

IKIGABANE CA 15 1Kandi Antiyokusi mwene Demetiriyo umwami atumako amakete avuye mu bisyo vy'ibisebuzi vyo mu kiyaga, abimenyesha Simoni umuherezi akaba n'umukuru w'Abayuda n'abantu bose.

2 Ibi bintu vyari ibi bikurikira: Umwami Antiyokusi+ kuri Simoni, umuherezi mukuru akaba n'umutware w'ihanga ryiwe, be n'abantu b'Abayuda, baramutsa+.

3 Nk'uko abantu bamwebamwe b'ikiza+ basogongereye ubwami bwa ba sogokuruza bacu+, kandi intumbero yanje ni iyo gusubira kuyirwanya+, kugira ngo ndagisubize mu vya kera+, kandi gushika ku mpera hakoraniye ingabo nyinshi z'amahanga+, ntegura amato y'intambara+.

4 No kugira ngo nshobore guca mu gihugu+, kugira ngo nsubire kize abatikije+, kandi ibisagara vyinshi vy'ubwami bicike umusaka+.

5 None rero, ndakwemeza+ ibintu vyose abami bo mu maso yanje+ babahaye+ be n'ivyo baronse kiretse ivyo baronse vyose+.

6 Nanje ndaguhaye amahera ku bw'igihugu cawe ukoresheje umucafu+.

7 Kandi ku bijanye na Yeruzalemu no ku bijanye n'ahantu heranda+, nibaba abidegemvya+. N'ibirwanisho vyose waremye, n'igihome c'igihome wubatseko, ukizigama mu maboko yawe, bigume kuri wewe.

8 Kandi nimba hari ikintu kiriho canke kizoba ku bw'umwami+, kizoba kikuhariwe ibihe bitazoshira+.

9Kandi ni twamara kuronka ubwami bwacu, tuzokwubaha, wewe n'ihanga ryawe n'ingoro yawe, n'urusengero rwawe, n'icubahiro cawe gikomeye, kugira ngo iteka ryawe rizomenyekane kw'isi yose.

10 Mu mwaka ugira amajana atatu na cumi na kane bija i Antiyokusi mu gihugu ca ba sekuruza biwe+; muri ico gihe inteko zose zirakorana kuri we, ku buryo bakeyi basigaye hamwe na Tphoni+.

11 Umwami Antiyokusi aca ahungira i Dora, ari ku ruhande rw'ikiyaga+.

12 Kuko yabona ko ivyago bimushikira bose, kandi inteko ziwe zari zamuhevye+.

13 Maze inkambi ya Antiyokiya+, ija i Dora+, ajana n'abagabo ibihumbi ijana na mirongo ibiri, n'abagendera ku mafarasi ibihumbi umunani+.

14Kandi amaze guharūra ico gisagara mu nzira zizunguruka, afatanya n'amato ari hafi y'igisagara hakurya y'ikiyaga, aca acukira ico gisagara ku butaka no mu kiyaga, kandi nta n'umwe yababajwe no gusohoka canke kwinjira.

15 Mu gihe c'irondoka haza Numeniyo n'ishirahamwe ryiwe bavuye i Roma, bafise amakete ku bami n'ibihugu+; Aho ni ho banditse ibi bintu: 16 Luciyo, umukozi w'Abaroma+ ku mwami Ptolemee, aramutsa+ ati: 17Kandi ba ambasaderi b'Abayuda, bagenzi bacu n'aba Confederates, baza aho tubaye kugira ngo basubire kugira ubucuti bwa kera n'ubw'ishengero, batumwe kuri Simoni umuherezankuka mukuru no mu bantu b'Abayuda.

18Bazana inkinzo y'inzahabu y'ikiro igihumbi.

19Ni co catumye twiyumvira ko ari vyiza kwandikira abami n'ibihugu, ngo ntibagire ico babagirira, canke ngo babarwanye, ibisagara vyabo canke ibihugu vyabo, kandi ntibazotabara abansi babo.

20 Natwe nyene, vyasa n'uko ari vyiza kwakira inkinzo yabo.+ 21 Nihaba rero hari ikiza gihonya giketa gihunga bava mu gihugu cabo, ubashikirize Simoni umuherezankuka mukuru, kugira ngo abahane nk'uko itegeko ryabo bwite ribwirizwa+.

22 Ivyo nyene ni vyo nyene yandikira Demetiriyo umwami na Atatalyo+ kuri Ariara na Arsacesi+, 23 N'ibihugu vyose, n'ibihugu vyose, n'abamedidoniya+ n'Abamedidoniya+ n'i Delusi+ na Myuniya+ na Tiyo+ na Samo+ na Pamfiliya+ na Lykiya, Halicarnassus, Rhodusi na Aradusi+ na Aradusi na Aradusi+ na Goraya+ na Cdusi+ na Cdusi+ na Shipure+ na Cyrene.

24Kandi iyo kopi bayihereje kuri Simoni umuherezankuka mukuru.

25 Maze Antiyokusi+ umwami atangura gutera Dora ku musi ugira kabiri, atangura kuwutera+ no gukora ivyuma, abigira ivyuma, bituma yugara Tryphon, kugira ngo atagishobora gusohoka canke kwinjira.

26 Muri ico gihe, Simoni amutumako abantu ibihumbi bibiri batowe ngo bamufashe+; N'inzahabu, n'inzahabu n'ibirwanisho vyinshi.

27 Mugabo ntiyabironka+, ahubwo yahevye amasezerano yose yari yaragiranye na we, atangura kumumenya+.

28 Maze amurungika kuri Athene+ umwe mu bagenzi biwe, ngo amusange, amubwire ati: 'Reka reke Yopa na Gazera+.

Uwo munara uri i Yeruzalemu, ni wo bisagara vy'intara yanje.

29 Imbibe z'aho mwazitaye+, zibabaza cane mu gihugu+, kandi zifise inganji y'ibibanza vyinshi mu bwami bwanje+.

30 None rero, nimutange ibisagara mwafashe n'inganji y'ibibanza vy'inganji+, mutagira imbibe z'I Yudaya+.

31 Canke na bo nyene mumpe italanto amajana atanu z'ifeza+; Kandi ku bw'amabi wakoze, n'amashimwe y'ibisagara,

n'ayandi tarenta amajana atanu, nimba atari ko biri, tuzoza tubarwanye.

32 Nuko Atenekoyo+ incuti y'umwami aza i Yeruzalemu; abonye ubuninahazwa bwa Simoni be n'isakoshi y'inzahabu n'iy'ifeza be n'abari ng'aho bahimbawe cane, baratangazwa n'ivyo umwami yavuze.

33 Maze asubiza Simoni, amubwira ati: "Ntitwafashe igihugu c'abandi bantu canke ngo tujane mu bandi, mugabo ni intoranwa ya ba sogokuruza bacu bari bafise ibintu vy'intoranwa+ abansi bacu bari bafise igihe kanaka.

34Ni co gituma dufise uburyo, turonse iragi rya ba sogokuruza bacu.

35Ni co gituma musaba Yopa na Gamazera, naho bogiriye nabi cane abantu bo mu gihugu cacu, mugabo wewe tuzobaha italanto ijana. Agathon Nta jambo na rimwe rimushurirako; 36 Mugabo umwami arashangashangasa+ maze amushikiriza ivyo bivugwa n'ubuninahazwa bwa Simoni be n'ivyo yari yabonye vyose; kandi umwami yari arengeje insago+.

37 Muri ico gihe nyene, Etuphoni yaciye ahungira mu bwato i Orotiyosiya.

38 Maze umwami amugira umukuru w'inkengera y'ikiyaga+ maze amuha ingabo z'abagendera ku maguru n'abagendera ku mafarasi+, 39 Nuko amuha itegeko ryo gukura ingabo ziwe i Yudaya+; Amuha itegeko ryo kwubaka Igisagara ca Cedroni no kugabisha amarembo no kurwanya abantu. Ku bw'ivyo, umwami ubwiwe yarakurikiranye tryphonse.

40 Cendebeyo aja i Yaniya, atangura gutera abantu no gutera Yudaya no gufata abantu bari mu mabohero, arabaca.

41Maze yubaka Cedrou, ashingayo abagendera ku mafarasi n'abagendera ku maguru, gushika ku mpera y'aho, kugira ngo basohore ibisohoka mu nzira z'i Yudaya, nk'uko umwami yari yamutegetse.

IKIGABANE CA 16 1 Maze haza Yohani w'i Gatizera, abibwira Simoni se ivyo Cendebeyo yakoze+.

2Ariko Simoni ahamagara abahungu biwe b'imfura babiri, ari bo Yuda na Yohani, arababwira ati: "Jewe na bene wacu, n'abo mu nzu ya dawe, kuva mu buto bwanje gushika n'uyu musi, nta na rimwe na rimwe twarwanije abansi ba Isirayeli."

Kandi ivyo vyaradushikanye neza mu maboko yacu, ku buryo twaha Abisirayeli ibihe vyose.

3Ariko ubu ndashaje, namwe, ku bw'imbabazi z'Imana, muzoba mufise imyaka myinshi, ntimube jewe na mwenewacu, mugende murwanira ihanga ryacu, kandi imfashanyo iva mw'ijuru izobane namwe.

4 Nuko yitorera mu gihugu abagabo ibihumbi mirongo ibiri b'intambara+ n'abagendera ku mafarasi,+ baja kurwanya Cendebeyo+, muri iryo joro bararuhuka i Modini+.

5 Kandi igihe bazinduka mu gitondo+ baja mu kayaya, ehe ingabo zikomeye z'ibirenge n'abagendera ku mafarasi barabarwanya+; hari umuyonga w'amazi ubashirako+.

6 Nuko we hamwe n'abantu biwe babarwanya+; maze abonye abantu batinya kujabuka uruzi rw'amazi, atangura kwikubita imbere yiwe, hanyuma nya bantu bamubonye bamukurikira+.

7 Ivyo vyakozwe, agabura abantu biwe,Ashira abagendera ku mafarasi hagati y'abagendera ku maguru+; kuko abagendera ku mafarasi b'abansi bari benshi cane+.

8 Maze baguma bavugana n'inzamba nyeranda+; maze Cendebeyo n'ingabo ziwe barahunga+ ku buryo benshi muri bo bishwe+ n'abasigaye babajana ku bw'abanyenkomezi+.

9 Ico gihe, muramu wa Yuda Yohani yarakomeretse. Ariko Yohani abandanya kubakurikira gushika ashitse i Cedroni, iryo Cendebeyo yari yubatse.

10 Nuko bahungira no ku minara mu mirima ya Azoti+. Nico gituma aturira umuriro, ku buryo muri bo hapfa abantu nk'ibihumbi bibiri. Mu nyuma, yarasubiye mu gihugu c'Ubuyuda, mu mahoro.

11 Kandi mu kiyaya c'i Yeriko hari Ptolemeyo mwene Abubu, kandi yari afise ubutunzi bwinshi bw'ifeza n'inzahabu+.

12Kuko yari umwana w'umuherezi mukuru.

13 Igihe umutima wiwe uraranguka, yiyumviriye kwishikana ku bwiwe+, maze yigira inama y'ubuhendanyi+ kuri Simoni n'abahungu biwe ngo babatikize+.

14 Simoni yariko agendera ibisagara vyari muri ico gihugu, abungabunga urutonde rwiza rwavyo. Muri irya misi, Yezu amanuka i Yeriko ari kumwe n'abahungu biwe Matatiyasi na Yuda, mu mwaka amajana atatu na cumi na cumi na rimwe, mu kwezi kw'icumi na rimwe, bita Sabati: 15 Aho mwene Abubu+ abakiriye ubuhendanyi mu gatondo, yitwa Doko, iryo yari yarubatse, abagirira inzimano ikomeye+.

16Maze Simoni n'abahungu biwe bari banyoye cane, Ptolemee n'abantu biwe barahaguruka, bafata ibirwanisho vyabo, bashika kuri Simoni mu kibanza c'inzimano, baramwica, we n'abahungu biwe bompi, bamwe mu basuku biwe.

17 Muri ico gihe, aho yakoze ikintu c'ubugabisha gikomeye+, yongera ahemba iciza+.

18 Maze Ptolemee yandika ivyo, atuma ku mwami ngo amurungike ingabo zo kumufasha, kandi azomushikiriza igihugu n'ibisagara+.

19 Arungika n'abandi i Gazera kwica Yohani+; mu bi tribune, arungika amakete ngo baze kuri we, kugira ngo abaha ifeza n'inzahabu n'impembo+.

20 Abandi na bo arungika kujana i Yeruzalemu n'umusozi w'urusengero+.

21 Mugabo hari umuntu yari yirukira i Gatizera, abwira Yohani yuko se na bene wabo bishwe, kandi ko ari ko Ptolemeyi yabarungikiye kukwishe+ na mwebwe.

22Amaze kwumva, arasemerera cane; abarambikako ibiganza ku bari baje kumuhonya, arabahitana. Kuko yari azi ko barondera kumwica.

23 Nayo ibisigaye mu bikorwa vya Yohana n'intambara ziwe+ be n'ibikorwa bibereye yakoze be n'ivyo yakoze, n'ukwubaka impome yakoze n'ibikorwa vyiwe+, 24 Ehe ivyo vyanditswe mu misi y'ubusaserdoti bwiwe+, kuva igihe yagirwa umuherezi mukuru inyuma ya se+.
