Na rĩrĩ, Daudi aakorirwo ahĩtũkĩte gacũmbĩrĩ ga kĩrĩma o hanini-rĩ, agĩkora Ziba, ndungata ya Mefiboshethu, ĩmwetereire ĩmũtũnge. Aarĩ na ndigiri igĩrĩ ciatandĩkĩtwo na igakuua mĩgate magana meerĩ na imanjĩka cia thabibũ nyũmũ igana rĩmwe, na ikũmba igana cia ngũyũ, o na mondo ya ndibei.
2 Mfumu inafunsa Ziba kuti, “Nʼchifukwa chiyani wabweretsa izi?” Ziba anayankha kuti, “Abuluwa ndi oti anthu a mʼbanja mwanu akwerepo, buledi ndi zipatso ndi za anthu anu kuti adye, ndipo vinyoyo ndi woti atsitsimutse anthu amene atope mʼchipululu.”
Nake mũthamaki akĩũria Ziba atĩrĩ, “Nĩ kĩĩ gĩtũmĩte ũrehe indo ici?” Nake Ziba agĩcookia atĩrĩ, “Ndigiri nĩ cia gũkuua andũ a nyũmba ya mũthamaki, nayo mĩgate na matunda nĩ cia kũrĩĩo nĩ andũ, nayo ndibei nĩyakũnyuuo nĩ arĩa mangĩũrwo nĩ hinya gũkũ werũ-inĩ.”
3 Kenaka mfumu inafunsa kuti, “Kodi chidzukulu cha mbuye wako chili kuti?” Ziba anati kwa iye, “Watsalira ku Yerusalemu chifukwa akuganiza kuti, ‘Lero Aisraeli andibwezera ufumu wa agogo anga.’”
Mũthamaki agĩcooka akĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Arĩ ha mũrũ wa mũriũ wa mwathi waku?” Nake Ziba akiuga atĩrĩ, “Aikarĩte Jerusalemu, tondũ areciiria atĩrĩ, ‘Ũmũthĩ nyũmba ya Isiraeli nĩĩkũnjookeria ũthamaki wa guka.’”
4 Ndipo mfumu inati kwa Ziba, “Zonse zimene zinali za Mefiboseti ndi zako tsopano.” Ziba anati, “Ine modzichepetsa ndikukugwandirani, mbuye wanga mfumu, kuti ndipeze chisomo pamaso panu.”
Ningĩ mũthamaki akĩĩra Ziba atĩrĩ, “Indo ciothe iria iraarĩ cia Mefiboshethu kuuma rĩu nĩ ciaku.” Nake Ziba akiuga atĩrĩ, “Nĩndakwĩnyiihĩria; reke njĩtĩkĩrĩke maitho-inĩ maku, wee mũthamaki, mwathi wakwa.”
5 Mfumu Davide itayandikira Bahurimu, munthu wochokera ku fuko limodzi ndi banja la Sauli anabwera kuchokera mʼmenemo. Dzina lake linali Simei, mwana wa Gera ndipo amatukwana pamene amabwera.
Mũthamaki Daudi aakuhĩrĩria Bahurimu-rĩ, mũndũ wa mũhĩrĩga wa nyũmba ya Saũlũ agĩũka oimĩte kuo. Nake eetagwo Shimei mũrũ wa Gera; agĩũka akĩrumanaga.
6 Iye amagenda Davide miyala ndi akuluakulu onse a mfumu, ngakhale kuti ankhondo onse ndi oteteza Davide anali ali kumanzere ndi kumanja kwake.
Agĩikĩria Daudi na anene othe a mũthamaki mahiga, o na gũtuĩka mbũtũ ciothe cia ita na arangĩri maarĩ mwena wa Daudi wa ũrĩo na wa ũmotho.
7 Potukwana, Simeiyo amati, “Choka iwe, choka iwe, munthu wopha anthu, munthu wachabechabe iwe!
Shimei akĩrumana, akiuga atĩrĩ, “Thiĩ na kũu, thiĩ na kũu, wee mũiti wa thakame, wee kĩmaramari gĩkĩ!
8 Yehova wakubwezera chifukwa cha magazi onse amene unakhetsa pa nyumba ya Sauli, yemwe iwe ukulamulira mʼmalo mwake. Yehova wapereka ufumu kwa mwana wako Abisalomu. Ndipo ona mathero ako ndi amenewa chifukwa ndiwe munthu wopha anthu!”
Jehova nĩakũrĩhĩtie, thakame yothe ĩrĩa wanaita ya nyũmba ya Saũlũ, ũrĩa wathanaga ithenya rĩake. Jehova nĩaneanĩte ũthamaki kũrĩ mũrũguo Abisalomu. Wee nĩũkinyĩrĩirwo nĩ mwanangĩko tondũ ũrĩ mũiti wa thakame!”
9 Ndipo Abisai mwana wa Zeruya anati kwa mfumu, “Nʼchifukwa chiyani galu wakufa uyu akutukwana mbuye wanga mfumu? Ndiloleni ndipite kuti ndikadule mutu wake.”
Hĩndĩ ĩyo Abishai mũrũ wa Zeruia akĩũria mũthamaki atĩrĩ, “Nĩ kĩĩ kĩratũma ngui ĩno nguũ ĩrume mũthamaki mwathi wakwa? Reke ninge mũrĩmo ndĩmũtinie mũtwe.”
10 Koma mfumu inati, “Inu ana a Zeruya, kodi ndikuchitireni chiyani? Ngati iye akutukwana chifukwa Yehova wamuwuza kuti, ‘Tukwana Davide,’ angafunse ndani kuti, ‘Nʼchifukwa chiyani ukuchita zimenezi?’”
No mũthamaki akiuga atĩrĩ, “Tũnyiitanĩire ũndũ ũrĩkũ niĩ na inyuĩ, inyuĩ ariũ a Zeruia? Angĩkorwo ararumana tondũ Jehova nĩamwĩrĩte atĩrĩ, ‘Ruma Daudi,’ nũũ ũngĩmũũria atĩrĩ, ‘Ũgwĩka ũguo nĩkĩ?’”
11 Tsono Davide anati kwa Abisai ndi akuluakulu ake onse, “Mwana wanga wobereka ndekha akufuna kundipha. Nanji tsono munthu wa fuko la Benjamini uyu! Musiyeni; mulekeni atukwane pakuti Yehova wachita kumuwuza kuti atero.
Ningĩ Daudi akĩĩra Abishai na anene ake othe atĩrĩ, “Mũrũ wakwa, ũrĩa uumĩte mũthiimo-inĩ wakwa, nĩwe ũraageria kũnduta muoyo. Githĩ Mũbenjamini ũyũ ndangĩgĩĩka makĩria ma ũguo! Tiganai nake; rekei arumane, tondũ Jehova nĩwe ũmwĩrĩte eke ũguo.
12 Mwina Yehova adzaona mazunzo anga ndipo adzandibwezera zabwino chifukwa cha kutukwanidwa kumene ndikulandira lero.”
Hihi no gũkorwo Jehova nĩekuona thĩĩna wakwa, na nĩakandĩha na wega nĩ ũndũ wa irumi ici ndĩrarumwo ũmũthĩ.”
13 Kotero Davide ndi anthu ake anapitirira kuyenda mu msewu pamene Simei amayenda mʼmbali mwa phiri moyangʼanana naye akutukwana ndi kuponya miyala pamene amayenda nʼkumamutsiranso dothi.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Daudi na andũ ake magĩthiĩ na mbere magereire njĩra nake Shimei akagera mwena-inĩ wa kĩrĩma angʼethanĩire nao, agĩthiĩ akĩrumanaga, na akĩmũikagĩria mahiga, na akamũminjagĩria tĩĩri.
14 Mfumu ndi anthu ake onse anafika kumene amapita atatopa kwambiri. Ndipo kumeneko anapumula.
Nake mũthamaki na andũ othe arĩa maarĩ nake magĩkinya kũrĩa maathiiaga manogeete. Na kũu nĩkuo Daudi aahurũkĩire, akĩnogoka.
15 Pa nthawi imeneyi Abisalomu ndi Aisraeli ena onse anabwera ku Yerusalemu, Ahitofele anali naye.
Hĩndĩ ĩyo Abisalomu na andũ othe a Isiraeli magĩũka Jerusalemu, na Ahithofeli agĩkorwo hamwe nao.
16 Tsono Husai Mwariki bwenzi la Davide anapita kwa Abisalomu ndipo anati kwa iye, “Ikhale ndi moyo wautali mfumu! Ikhale ndi moyo wautali mfumu!”
Hĩndĩ ĩyo Hushai ũrĩa Mũariki, mũrata wa Daudi, agĩthiĩ kũrĩ Abisalomu, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Mũthamaki arotũũra nginya tene! Mũthamaki arotũũra nginya tene!”
17 Abisalomu anafunsa Husai, “Kodi ichi ndi chikondi chimene ukumuonetsa bwenzi lako? Nʼchifukwa chiyani sunapite ndi bwenzi lako?”
Abisalomu akĩũria Hushai atĩrĩ, “Ũyũ nĩguo wendo ũrĩa wonetie mũrata waku? Nĩ kĩĩ kĩragiririe ũthiĩ na mũrata waku?”
18 Husai anati kwa Abisalomu, “Ayi, ndidzakhala wake wa amene Yehova wamusankha, wosankhidwa ndi anthu awa ndi anthu onse a Israeli, ndipo ndidzakhala wake nthawi zonse.
Nake Hushai akĩĩra Abisalomu atĩrĩ, “Aca, ũrĩa ũthuurĩtwo nĩ Jehova, na agathuurwo nĩ andũ aya, na agathuurwo nĩ andũ othe a Isiraeli, niĩ ndĩ wake, na njikare nake.
19 Kodi ndidzatumikiranso yani? Kodi sinditumikira mwana wa mfumu? Monga momwe ndinatumikira abambo anu, kotero ndidzatumikiranso inu.”
Ningĩ-rĩ, njagĩrĩirwo nĩgũtungatĩra ũũ? Githĩ ndiagĩrĩirwo nĩ gũtungatĩra mũriũ? O ta ũrĩa ndaatungatĩire thoguo, noguo ngũgũtuungatĩra.”
20 Abisalomu anati kwa Ahitofele, “Tiwuze malangizo ako. Kodi tichite chiyani?”
Abisalomu akĩĩra Ahithofeli atĩrĩ, “Tũhe ũtaaro waku. Twagĩrĩirwo nĩ gwĩka atĩa?”
21 Ahitofele anayankha kuti, “Mugone ndi azikazi a abambo anu amene awasiya kuti asamalire nyumba yaufumu. Aisraeli onse adzamva kuti mwachitira abambo anu chinthu chonyansa kotheratu ndipo anthu onse amene ali ndi iwe adzalimbikitsidwa.”
Ahithofeli agĩcookia atĩrĩ, “Koma na thuriya cia thoguo iria aatigire nĩgeetha irorage gĩikaro kĩa mũthamaki. Hĩndĩ ĩyo andũ othe a Isiraeli nĩmakaigua atĩ wee wĩmũthũũre biũ nĩ thoguo, namo moko ma andũ arĩa othe ũrĩ nao nĩmekũgĩa hinya.”
22 Choncho anamangira tenti Abisalomu pa denga la nyumba ndipo iye anagona ndi azikazi a abambo ake Aisraeli onse akuona.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio makĩambĩra Abisalomu hema nyũmba igũrũ, nake agĩkoma na thuriya cia ithe mbere ya andũ othe a Isiraeli.
23 Tsono masiku amenewo malangizo amene Ahitofele amapereka anali ngati mawu ochokera kwa Mulungu. Umu ndi mmene Davide ndi Abisalomu amalandirira malangizo onse a Ahitofele.
No rĩrĩ, matukũ-inĩ macio mataaro marĩa Ahithofeli aaheanaga maahaanaga ta ma mũndũ ũhooete kĩrĩra kũrĩ Ngai. Ũguo nĩguo Daudi na Abisalomu mooyaga mataaro mothe ma Ahithofeli.
