< 1 Mbiri 11 >

1 Aisraeli onse anasonkhana pamaso pa Davide ku Hebroni ndipo anati, “Ife ndife abale anu.

Then did all Israel gather themselves together to David, unto Hebron, saying, —Lo! thy bone and thy flesh, are we.

2 Kale lija, ngakhale pamene Sauli anali mfumu, inu ndinu amene munkatsogolera Aisraeli pa nkhondo zawo. Ndipo Yehova Mulungu wanu anakuwuzani kuti, ‘Iwe udzaweta anthu anga Aisraeli, ndipo udzakhala mfumu yawo.’”

Moreover also, in time past even when Saul was king, thou, wast he that led out and brought in Israel, —and Yahweh thy God said unto thee, Thou, shalt shepherd my people Israel, Yea, thou, shalt be chief ruler, over my people Israel.

3 Akuluakulu onse a Israeli atafika kwa Mfumu Davide ku Hebroni, iye anachita nawo pangano pamaso pa Yehova, ndipo anamudzoza Davide kukhala mfumu ya Israeli, monga momwe Yehova analonjezera kudzera mwa Samueli.

Thus came all the elders of Israel unto the king, to Hebron, and David solemnised to them a covenant in Hebron, before Yahweh, —and they anointed David to be king over Israel, according to the word of Yahweh, through Samuel.

4 Davide ndi Aisraeli onse anapita ku Yerusalemu (ku Yebusi). Ayebusi amene ankakhala kumeneko

Then went David and all Israel to Jerusalem, the same, was Jebus, —where were the Jebusites, the inhabitants of the land.

5 anamuwuza Davide kuti, “Simulowa muno.” Komabe Davide analanda linga la Ziyoni, limene ndi mzinda wa Davide.

And the inhabitants of Jebus said unto David, Thou shalt not come in hither, —But David captured the citadel of Zion, the same, is the city of David.

6 Davide anali atanena kuti “Aliyense amene adzatsogolere kukathira nkhondo Ayebusi adzakhala mkulu wa asilikali.” Yowabu mwana wa Zeruya ndiye anayamba kupita, motero anakhala mkulu wa asilikali.

And David said, Whosoever smiteth the Jebusites, first, shall become a chief, and a ruler, —So then Joab son of Zeruiah, went up first, and became a chief.

7 Tsono Davide anakhazikika mu lingamo, ndipo mzindawu anawutcha Mzinda wa Davide.

And David dwelt in the citadel, —for this cause, did they call it, The City of David.

8 Iye anamanga malo onse ozungulira, kuyambira ku matsitso ozungulira khoma. Ndipo Yowabu anakonzanso mbali ina ya mzindawu.

And he built the city round about, from Millo even as far as the circuit, —but, Joab, suffered the remainder of the city to live.

9 Ndipo mphamvu za Davide zinkakulirakulira chifukwa anali ndi Yehova Wamphamvuzonse.

Thus did David wax greater and yet greater, —and, Yahweh of Hosts, was with him.

10 Awa ndiye anali atsogoleri amphamvu a Davide. Iwo pamodzi ndi Aisraeli onse, anathandiza kulimbikitsa ufumu wake kuti ukwanire madera onse, monga momwe Yehova analonjezera.

Now, these, are the chiefs of the heroes, that pertained to David, who held strongly with him in his kingdom, with all Israel, to make him king, —according to the word of Yahweh, concerning Israel.

11 Nawa mayina a ankhondo amphamvu a Davide: Yasobeamu Mhakimoni anali mkulu wa atsogoleri. Iye anapha ndi mkondo ankhondo 300 nthawi imodzi.

And, this, is the number of the heroes who pertained to David, —Jashobeam son of a Hachmonite, chief of the thirty, the same, brandished his spear over three hundred—slain at one time.

12 Wotsatana naye anali Eliezara mwana wa Dodo Mwahohi, mmodzi mwa ankhondo atatu amphamvu.

And, after him, was Eleazar son of Dodai, the Ahohite, —he, was among the three heroes;

13 Iye anali ndi Davide ku Pasi-Damimu pamene Afilisti anasonkhana kudzachita nkhondo. Ankhondo anathawa Afilistiwo pamalo pamene panali munda wodzaza ndi barele.

he, was with David in Pas-dammim, where, the Philistines, were gathered together to battle, and there was a field-plot full of barley, —and, the people, fled, from before the Philistines;

14 Koma awiriwo anayima pakati pa mundawo. Iwo anawuteteza, nakantha Afilistiwo ndipo Yehova anawapambanitsa koposa.

so they took their stand in the midst of the plot and rescued it, and smote the Philistines, —and Yahweh wrought a great victory.

15 Atatu mwa atsogoleri makumi atatu aja anabwera kwa Davide ku thanthwe ku phanga la Adulamu pamene gulu la Afilisti linali litamanga misasa mʼchigwa cha Refaimu.

And three of the thirty chiefs went down upon the rock, unto David, into the cave of Adullam, —a host of Philistines, being encamped in the vale of Rephaim.

16 Nthawi imeneyo Davide anali mu linga, ndipo boma la Afilisti linali ku Betelehemu.

Now, David, then was in the stronghold, —and, a garrison of Philistines, then was in Bethlehem.

17 Davide analakalaka madzi ndipo anati, “Haa, pakanapezeka munthu wokanditungira madzi a mʼchitsime chomwe chili pafupi ndi chipata cha ku Betelehemu!”

And David longed, and said—Who will give me to drink of the water, out of the well of Bethlehem, that is within the gate?

18 Choncho anthu atatuwa anadutsa mizere ya Afilisti, natunga madzi amene anali mʼchitsime chomwe chinali pafupi ndi chipata cha ku Betelehemu nabwera nawo kwa Davide. Koma iye anakana kumwa. Mʼmalo mwake anathira pansi pamaso pa Yehova.

And the three brake through the host of the Philistines, and drew water out of the well of Bethlehem, that was within the gate, and bare it, and brought it in unto David, —yet would not David drink it, but poured it out unto Yahweh;

19 Iye anati, “Inu Mulungu, musalole kuti ine ndichite chinthu ichi! Kodi ndimwe magazi a anthu amene anayika miyoyo yawo pachiswe?” Chifukwa iwo anayika miyoyo yawo pachiswe kuti abweretse madziwo, Davide sanamwe. Zimenezi ndi zimene anachita anthu amphamvu atatuwo.

and said—Far be it from me, of my God, that I should do this! The blood of these men, shall I drink, with their lives? For, with their lives, have they brought it! So he would not drink it. These things, did the three heroes.

20 Abisai mʼbale wa Yowabu ndiye anali mtsogoleri wa anthu atatuwa. Iye anapha ndi mkondo ankhondo 300. Choncho iyeyo anali wotchuka pakati pa anthu atatu aja.

And, Abishai brother of Joab—he, was the chief of three, he, having brandished his spear against three hundred—who were slain, —and so, he, had a name among three.

21 Iye analandira ulemu woposa atatuwo. Kotero anakhala mtsogoleri wawo ngakhale kuti iyeyo sanali mʼgulu la anthu atatu aja.

Of the three in the second rank, was he honourable, therefore became he their captain, —though, unto the [first] three, did he not attain.

22 Benaya mwana wa Yehoyada wa ku Kabizeeli anali munthu wolimba mtima amene anachita zinthu zamphamvu. Iye anakantha ankhondo awiri otchuka a ku Mowabu. Tsiku lina kukuzizira kwambiri, iye analowa mʼdzenje ndi kuphamo mkango.

Benaiah, son of Jehoiada, son of a man of valour, hero of many a deed, from Kabziel—he, smote the two [sons] of Ariel of Moab, he, also went down and smote a lion in the midst of a pit, in time of snow;

23 Ndipo iye anakanthanso Mwigupto amene anali wotalika mamita awiri ndi theka. Ngakhale kuti Mwiguptoyo anali ndi mkondo wofanana ndi ndodo yowombera nsalu mʼdzanja mwake, Benaya anapita kukamenyana naye ali ndi chibonga chokha mʼmanja. Iye analanda mkondo mʼdzanja la Mwiguptoyo ndi kumupha ndi mkondo wake womwe.

he, also smote an Egyptian, a man of [great] stature, five cubits, and, in the hand of the Egyptian, was a spear like a weaver’s beam, so he went down unto him with a staff, —and wrested the spear out of the hand of the Egyptian, and slew him with his spear.

24 Izi ndi zamphamvu zimene Benaya mwana wa Yehoyada anachita. Iyeyo analinso wotchuka ngati anthu atatu amphamvu aja.

These things, did Benaiah son of Jehoiada, so, he, had a name among three heroes.

25 Iye ankalemekezedwa kuposa wina aliyense mwa anthu makumi atatu, koma sanali mʼgulu la anthu atatu aja. Ndipo Davide anamuyika kukhala woyangʼanira asilikali omuteteza.

Among the thirty, lo! honourable, was he, but, unto the [first] three, did he not attain, —howbeit David set him over his council.

26 Ankhondo amphamvuwa anali: Asaheli mʼbale wa Yowabu, Elihanani mwana wa Dodo wa ku Betelehemu,

Now, the heroes of the forces, were, —Asahel, brother of Joab, Elhanan, son of Dodo, of Bethlehem;

27 Samoti Mharori, Helezi Mpeloni.

Shammoth, the Harorite, Helez the Paltite;

28 Ira mwana wa Ikesi wa ku Tekowa, Abiezeri wa ku Anatoti,

Ira, son of Ikkesh, the Tekoite, Abiezer, the Anathothite;

29 Sibekai Mhusati, Ilai Mwahohi,

Sibbecai, the Hushathite, Ilai, the Ahohite;

30 Maharai Mnetofa, Heledi mwana wa Baana Mnetofa,

Maharai, the Netophathite, Heled, son of Baanah, the Netophathite;

31 Itai mwana wa Ribai wa ku Gibeya ku Benjamini, Benaya Mpiratoni,
