2 Samueli 19

1 Yowabu anawuzidwa kuti, “Mfumu ikulira maliro a Abisalomu.”

Pea naʻe fakahā kia Soape, “Vakai, ʻoku tangi mo mamahi ʻae tuʻi koeʻuhi ko ʻApisalomi.”

2 Ndipo kwa asilikali onse chipambano cha tsiku limenelo chinasandulika maliro, chifukwa tsiku limenelo anthu anamva kuti mfumu ili pa chisoni chachikulu chifukwa cha mwana wake.

Pea ko e fakamoʻui ʻoe ʻaho ko ia naʻe liliu ia ko e fakamamahi ki he kakai kotoa pē: he naʻe fanongo ʻe he kakai ʻi he ʻaho ko ia ki he mamahi ʻoe tuʻi koeʻuhi ko hono ʻalo.

3 Ankhondo analowa mu mzinda mwakachetechete tsiku limenelo ngati momwe amalowera anthu mwamanyazi chifukwa athawa ku nkhondo.

Pea ʻi he ʻaho ko ia naʻe ʻalu fakatoitoi pe ʻae kakai ki he kolo, ʻo hangē ko e ʻalu fakatoitoi ha kakai ʻi [heʻenau ]mā ʻoka nau ka feholataki ʻi he tau.

4 Mfumu inaphimba nkhope yake ndipo inalira mofuwula, “Iwe mwana wanga Abisalomu! Iwe Abisalomu, mwana wanga, mwana wanga!”

Ka naʻe ʻufiʻufi ʻe he tuʻi ʻa hono fofonga, pea naʻe tangi ʻaki ʻe he tuʻi ʻae leʻo lahi, ʻOiauē, ʻa hoku foha ko ʻApisalomi, “ʻOiauē ʻApisalomi, ko hoku ʻalo, ko hoku ʻalo!”

5 Kenaka Yowabu analowa mʼnyumba ya mfumu nafika kwa mfumuyo ndipo anati, “Lero mwachititsa manyazi asilikali anu onse, amene apulumutsa moyo wanu ndiponso moyo wa ana anu aamuna ndi aakazi, kudzanso moyo wa akazi anu ndi wa azikazi anu.

Pea naʻe hau ʻa Soape ki loto fale ki he tuʻi, ʻo ne pehē, “Kuo ke fakamaaʻi he ʻaho ni ʻae mata kotoa pē ʻo hoʻo kau tamaioʻeiki, ʻaia kuo fakahaofi ʻa hoʻo moʻui he ʻaho ni, mo e moʻui ʻa hoʻo ngaahi foha mo hoʻo ngaahi ʻofefine, mo e moʻui ʻa hoʻo ngaahi uaifi, mo e moʻui ʻa hoʻo kau sinifu;

6 Inu mumakonda amene amadana nanu ndipo mumadana ndi amene amakukondani. Inuyo mwaonetsa lero poyera kuti simusamala za atsogoleri anu a nkhondo ndi asilikali awo. Ine ndikuona kuti inu mukanakondwera ngati Abisalomu akanakhala ndi moyo lero, tonsefe titafa.

Ko e meʻa ʻi hoʻo ʻofa ki ho ngaahi fili, ka kuo ke fehiʻa ki ho kāinga. He kuo ke fakahā he ʻaho ni ʻoku ʻikai mahuʻinga kiate koe ʻae houʻeiki pe ko e kau tamaioʻeiki: he ʻoku ou mamata he ʻaho ni, ka ne moʻui pe ʻa ʻApisalomi, ke mau mate kotoa pē ʻakimautolu he ʻaho ni, pehē kuo ke lelei ai.

7 Tsopano pitani mukawalimbikitse asilikali anu. Ine ndikulumbira mwa Yehova kuti ngati inu simupita palibe munthu amene adzatsale ali ndi inu polowa dzuwa. Ichi chidzakhala choyipa kwambiri kuposa zovuta zonse zimene zinakugwerani kuyambira muli mnyamata mpaka lero.”

Ko ia foki, tuʻu hake, pea ʻalu atu, pea lea fakafiemālie ki he loto ʻo hoʻo kau tamaioʻeiki: he ʻoku ou fuakava ʻia Sihova kiate koe, kapau ʻe ʻikai te ke ʻalu atu, ʻe ʻikai toe kiate koe ha tokotaha ʻi he poōni: pea ʻe kovi lahi hake ia ʻi he kovi kotoa pē kuo hoko mai kiate koe talu mei hoʻo kei siʻi ʻo aʻu ki he ʻaho ni.”

8 Kotero mfumu inanyamuka ndipo inakhala pa mpando wake pa chipata. Pamene asilikali anawuzidwa kuti, “Mfumu yakhala pa chipata,” onse anabwera kwa iye. Nthawi imeneyi nʼkuti Aisraeli atathawira ku nyumba zawo.

Pea naʻe toki tuʻu hake ai ʻae tuʻi, ʻo ne ʻafio ʻi he matapā. Pea naʻa nau fakahā ki he kakai kotoa pē, ʻo pehē, “Vakai, kuo ʻafio ʻae tuʻi ʻi he matapā.” Pea naʻe haʻu ʻae kakai kotoa pē ki he ʻao ʻoe tuʻi: he kuo hola ʻae kau tangata kotoa pē ʻo ʻIsileli taki taha ki hono fale fehikitaki.

9 Pakati pa mafuko onse a Israeli, anthu amakangana ndipo amati, “Mfumu inatipulumutsa mʼmanja mwa adani anthu. Iye ndi amene anatilanditsa mʼdzanja la Afilisti. Koma tsopano wathawa mʼdziko muno chifukwa cha Abisalomu.

Pea naʻe fekeʻikeʻi ʻae kakai kotoa pē ʻi he ngaahi faʻahinga ʻo ʻIsileli kotoa pē, ʻo fepehēʻaki, “Naʻe fakamoʻui ʻakitautolu ʻe he tuʻi mei he nima ʻo hotau ngaahi fili, pea naʻa ne fakahaofi ʻakitautolu mei he nima ʻoe kau Filisitia; pea kuo ne hola eni mei he fonua koeʻuhi ko ʻApisalomi.”

10 Ndipo Abisalomu amene ife tinamudzoza kuti atilamulire wafa pa nkhondo. Tsono nʼchifukwa chiyani simukunena kanthu za kubweretsanso mfumu?”

Pea ko ʻApisalomi ʻaia naʻa tau fakanofo kiate kitautolu, kuo mate ʻi he tau. Pea ko ia foki ko e hā ʻoku mou taʻelea ai ke toe ʻomi ʻae tuʻi?

11 Mfumu Davide inatumiza uthenga uwu kwa ansembe Zadoki ndi Abiatara, “Funsani akuluakulu a Yuda, ‘Nʼchifukwa chiyani inu mukukhala otsiriza kuyitana mfumu ku nyumba yake yaufumu, pakuti zimene zikunenedwa mu Israeli yense zamveka kwa mfumu ndi onse amene akukhala nayo.

Pea naʻe fekau ʻe he tuʻi ko Tevita kia Satoki mo ʻApiata ko e ongo taulaʻeiki, ʻo ne pehē, “Mo lea ki he mātuʻa ʻo Siuta, ʻo pehē, Ko e hā ʻoku mou tomui ai ʻi he toe ʻomi ʻae tuʻi ki hono fale? Ka kuo hā mai ʻae lea ʻa ʻIsileli kotoa pē ki he tuʻi ki hono fale.

12 Inu ndinu abale anga enieni, mafupa anga ndi mnofu wanga. Nʼchifukwa chiyani inuyo mukukhala otsiriza kubweretsa mfumu?’

Ko hoku kāinga kimoutolu, ko hoku hui mo hoku kakano kimoutolu: ko ia ko e hā ʻoku mou tomui ai ʻi he toe ʻomi ʻae tuʻi?”

13 Ndipo munene kwa Amasa, ‘Kodi iwe si mʼbale wanga weniweni? Mulungu andilange, andilange kwambiri ngati kuyambira tsopano sukhala mtsogoleri wa ankhondo anga kulowa mʼmalo mwa Yowabu.’”

Pea mo pehē atu kia ʻAmasa, “ʻIkai ʻoku ke ʻo hoku hui, pea ʻo hoku kakano? Ke fai pehē ʻe he ʻOtua kiate au ʻo lahi hake foki, ʻo kapau ʻe ʻikai te ke ʻeiki koe ki he kautau ʻi hoku ʻao maʻuaipē, ko e fetongi ʻo Soape.”

14 Davide anakopa mitima ya anthu onse a Yuda ndipo anthuwo anakhala ngati munthu mmodzi. Iwo anatumiza mawu kwa mfumu, “Bwererani inu ndi anthu anu onse.”

Pea naʻa ne ueʻi ʻae loto ʻoe kakai kotoa pē ʻo Siuta, ʻo hangē kuo[nau ]taha pe; ko ia ne nau ʻave ai ʻae lea ni ki he tuʻi, Ke ke foki mai koe, pea mo hoʻo kau tamaioʻeiki kotoa pē.

15 Kotero mfumu inabwerera ndipo inakafika mpaka ku Yorodani. Tsono anthu a ku Yuda anabwera ku Giligala kuti akakumane ndi mfumu ndi kumuwolotsa Yorodani.

Ko ia naʻe foki mai ʻae tuʻi, ʻo ne haʻu ki Sioatani. Pea naʻe haʻu ʻakinautolu ʻo Siuta ki Kilikali, ke fakafetaulaki atu ki he tuʻi, pea ke ʻomi ʻae tuʻi ki he kauvai ʻe taha ʻo Sioatani.

16 Simei mwana wa Gera, wa fuko la Benjamini wa ku Bahurimu, anabwera mofulumira pamodzi ndi Ayuda kudzakumana ndi mfumu Davide.

Pea ko Simi ko e foha ʻo Kela, ko e tangata Penisimani, ʻaia naʻe ʻo Pahulimi, naʻa ne ʻalu fakatoʻotoʻo hifo mo e kau tangata ʻo Siuta, ke fetaulaki mo e tuʻi ko Tevita.

17 Iyeyo anali ndi anthu 1,000 a fuko la Benjamini pamodzi ndi Ziba, wantchito wa banja la Sauli ndi ana ake aamuna khumi ndi asanu ndi antchito ake makumi awiri. Iwo anathamangira ku Yorodani kumene kunali mfumu.

Pea naʻe ʻalu mo ia ʻae kau tangata Penisimani ʻe toko taha afe, pea mo Sipa ko e tamaioʻeiki mei he fale ʻo Saula, pea mo hono foha ʻoʻona ʻe toko hongofulu ma toko nima, pea mo ʻene kau tamaioʻeiki ʻe toko uofulu; pea naʻa nau muʻomuʻa atu ʻi he tuʻi ʻi heʻene aʻa ʻi Sioatani.

18 Iwo anawoloka mtsinje kukatenga banja lonse la mfumu ndi kuchita zonse zimene mfumuyo imafuna. Pamene Simei mwana wa Gera anawoloka Yorodani, anagwa pansi chafufumimba pamaso pa mfumu,

Pea naʻe ʻalu foki ʻae vaka fokotuʻu ke fetukutuku ai ʻae kaungāʻapi ʻoe tuʻi, pea ke fai ha meʻa naʻe pehē ʻe ia ke fai. Pea naʻe tō hifo ʻa Simi ko e foha ʻo Kela ʻi he ʻao ʻoe tuʻi ʻi heʻene laka mai mei Sioatani;

19 ndipo anati, “Mbuye wanga musaganizire za kulakwa kwanga. Musakumbukire zolakwa zimene mtumiki wanu anakuchitirani tsiku limene mbuye wanga mfumu mumachoka mu Yerusalemu. Mfumu musazikumbukirenso zimenezi.

‌ʻo ne pehē ki he tuʻi, “ʻOua naʻa tuku ha hia kiate au ʻe hoku ʻeiki, pea ʻoua foki naʻa ke manatuʻi ʻae meʻa naʻe fai angatuʻu ai ʻe hoʻo tamaioʻeiki ʻi he ʻaho ko ia naʻe ʻalu atu ai ʻa hoku ʻeiki ko e tuʻi mei Selūsalema, ke mamahi ai ʻae loto ʻoe tuʻi.

20 Pakuti ine mtumiki wanu ndazindikira kuti ndachimwa. Koma lero ndabwera ngati woyamba wa nyumba ya Yosefe yonse kudzakumana nanu mbuye wanga mfumu.”

He ʻoku ʻiloʻi ʻe hoʻo tamaioʻeiki kuo u fai angahala: pea ko ia foki kuo u haʻu ke u muʻomuʻa mai he ʻaho ni ʻi he fale kotoa pē ʻo Siosefa ke u hoko mai ke fakafetaulaki ki hoku ʻeiki ko e tuʻi.”

21 Ndipo Abisai mwana wa Zeruya anati, “Kodi Simei saphedwa chifukwa cha ichi? Iye anatukwana wodzozedwa wa Yehova.”

Ka naʻe pehēange ʻe ʻApisai ko e tama ʻa Seluia, “ʻIkai ʻe tāmateʻi ʻa Simi koeʻuhi ko e meʻa ni, koeʻuhi ko ʻene lea kapekape kiate ia kuo pani ʻaki ʻae lolo ʻe Sihova?”

22 Davide anayankha kuti, “Kodi inu ana a Zeruya, ndikuchitireni chiyani? Lero lino iwe wakhala mdani wanga! Kodi wina aphedwe lero mu Israeli? Kodi ine sindikudziwa kuti lero ndine mfumu mu Israeli?”

Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Tevita, “Ko e hā kimoutolu kiate au, ʻakimoutolu ʻae ngaahi tama ʻo Seluia, ke mou hoko ai ko e ngaahi fili kiate au he ʻaho ni? He ʻe tāmateʻi ha tokotaha ʻi ʻIsileli ʻi he ʻaho ni? He ʻoku ʻikai te u ʻilo koā kuo u tuʻi au he ʻaho ni ki ʻIsileli?”

23 Ndipo mfumu inati kwa Simei, “Iwe Simei suphedwa.” Ndipo mfumuyo inalonjeza ndi lumbiro.

Ko ia naʻe pehē ai ʻe he tuʻi kia Simi, “ʻE ʻikai te ke mate. Pea naʻe fuakava ʻe he tuʻi kiate ia.”

24 Mefiboseti, mdzukulu wa Sauli, nayenso anabwera kudzakumana ndi mfumu. Kuyambira tsiku limene mfumu inachoka mpaka tsiku limene inabwerera mu mtendere, iye sanasambe mapazi kaya kumeta ndevu kapena kuchapa zovala zake.

Pea naʻe ʻalu hifo ʻa Mifiposeti ko e foha ʻo Saula ke fetaulaki mo e tuʻi, pea naʻe ʻikai ke kaukau hono vaʻe, pe teuteuʻi hono kava, pe fō hono ngaahi kofu, talu mei he ʻaho ko ia naʻe ʻalu atu ai ʻae tuʻi, ʻo aʻu ki he ʻaho naʻa ne toe haʻu ai ʻi he melino.

25 Pamene anafika kuchokera ku Yerusalemu kudzakumana ndi mfumu, mfumu inamufunsa kuti, “Nʼchifukwa chiyani sunapite nane Mefiboseti?”

Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻi heʻene hoko mai ki Selūsalema, ke fetaulaki mo e tuʻi, naʻe pehē ʻe he tuʻi kiate ia, “ʻE Mifiposeti, ko e hā naʻe ʻikai te ta ō ai mo au?”

26 Iye anayankha kuti, “Mbuye wanga mfumu, pakuti ine wantchito wanu ndine wolumala. Ndinati, ‘Andikonzere chishalo cha bulu wanga ndipo ndidzakwera kuti ndipite ndi mfumu.’ Koma Ziba wantchito wanga anandilakwitsa.

Pea naʻe pehēange ʻe ia, “ʻE hoku ʻeiki, ko e tuʻi, naʻe kākaaʻi au ʻe hoku tamaioʻeiki: he naʻe pehē ʻe hoʻo tamaioʻeiki, ‘Te u ʻai ha hekaʻanga ki he ʻasi, koeʻuhi ke u heka ai ʻo ʻalu ki he tuʻi; koeʻuhi ʻoku ketu ʻa hoʻo tamaioʻeiki.’

27 Ndipo wayankhula zosinjirira za ine mtumiki wanu kwa inu mbuye wanga mfumu. Mbuye wanga mfumu ali ngati mngelo wa Mulungu ndipo chitani chimene chikukomerani.

Pea kuo ne lauʻikoviʻi ʻa hoʻo tamaioʻeiki ki hoku ʻeiki ko e tuʻi; ka ʻoku tatau ʻa hoku ʻeiki ko e tuʻi mo ha ʻāngelo ʻae ʻOtua: ko ia ke ke fai ʻaia ʻoku matamatalelei kiate koe.

28 Zidzukulu zonse za agogo anga sizinayenera chilichonse koma imfa kuchokera kwa inu mbuye wanga mfumu, koma inu munapereka malo kwa mtumiki wanu pakati pa amene amadya pa tebulo lanu. Tsono ine ndili ndi chiyaninso kuti ndipitirize kudandaula kwa mfumu?”

He ko kinautolu kotoa pē ʻoe fale ʻa ʻeku tamai, ko e kau mate kinautolu ʻi he ʻao ʻo hoku ʻeiki ko e tuʻi: ka neongo ia naʻa ke fakanofo ʻa hoʻo tamaioʻeiki[ko au ]ʻi he haʻohaʻonga ʻokinautolu naʻe kai mei ho keinangaʻanga ʻoʻou. Ko ia foki ʻe totonu fēfē ʻa ʻeku toe tangi ki he tuʻi?”

29 Mfumu inayankha kuti, “Uneneranji zambiri? Ine ndikulamula kuti iwe ndi Ziba mugawane minda.”

Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he tuʻi kiate ia, “Ko e hā ʻoku ke kei lea ai ki hoʻo ngaahi meʻa ʻaʻau? Kuo ʻosi ʻeku lea, Ke mo vaheua mo Sipa ʻae fonua.”

30 Mefiboseti anati kwa mfumu, “Muloleni atenge zonse, pakuti tsopano mbuye wanga mwafika kwanu mu mtendere.”

Pea naʻe pehēange ʻe Mifiposeti ki he tuʻi, “Tuku ke ne maʻu kotoa pē maʻana, koeʻuhi kuo toe hoko mai ʻa hoku ʻeiki ko e tuʻi ki hono fale ʻoʻona ʻi he melino.”

31 Barizilai Mgiliyadi anabweranso kuchokera ku Rogelimu kudzawoloka Yorodani ndi mfumu ndi kumuperekeza kuchokera kumeneko.

Pea naʻe ʻalu hifo ʻa Pasilai ko e tangata Kiliati mei Lokelimi, pea naʻe ʻalu atu ia mo e tuʻi ki he kauvai ʻo Sioatani, ke ne fakaaʻa atu ia ʻi Sioatani.

32 Tsono Barizilai anali wokalamba kwambiri, wa zaka makumi asanu ndi atatu. Iye ndi amene anapereka zinthu kwa mfumu pamene anali ku Mahanaimu pakuti anali wolemera kwambiri.

Ka ko eni naʻe motuʻa lahi ʻaupito ʻa Pasilai, he naʻe valungofulu ʻa hono taʻu: pea naʻa ne tokonaki meʻakai maʻae tuʻi lolotonga ʻa ʻene nofo ʻi Mehanemi; he ko e tangata ʻeikilahi ia.

33 Mfumu inati kwa Barizilai, “Woloka nane ndipo ukakhale ndi ine mu Yerusalemu ndipo ineyo ndidzakusamalira.”

Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he tuʻi kia Pasilai, Haʻu koe ke ta aʻa atu mo au, pea te u fafangaʻi koe mo au ʻi Selūsalema.

34 Barizilai anayankha mfumu kuti, “Kodi zakhala zaka zingati zoti ndikhale ndi moyo, kuti ndipite ku Yerusalemu ndi mfumu?

Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Pasilai ki he tuʻi, “He ʻoku toe fiha ʻae ngaahi ʻaho ʻo ʻeku moʻui, koeʻuhi ke u ʻalu hake ai mo e tuʻi ki Selūsalema?

35 Ine tsopano ndili ndi zaka 80. Kodi ndingathe kusiyanitsa pakati pa chabwino ndi choyipa? Kodi mtumiki wanu angathe kuzindikira kukoma kwa zimene akudya ndi kumwa? Kodi ndingathe kumva kuyimba kwa amuna ndi akazi? Nʼchifukwa chiyani wantchito wanu akakhale ngati katundu kwa mbuye wanga mfumu?

‌ʻOku ou valungofulu taʻu he ʻaho ni pea ʻoku ou faʻa fai koā ke fifili ki he meʻa ʻoku lelei mo ia ʻoku kovi? He ʻoku faʻa ifoifo ʻe hoʻo tamaioʻeiki ʻaia ʻoku ou kai pe ko ia ʻoku ou inu? Pea ʻoku ou kei faʻa ongoʻi koā ʻae leʻo ʻoe kau tangata fasi hiva mo e kau fefine fasi hiva?” Pea ka kuo pehē, ko e hā hono ʻaonga ʻoe hoko ʻa hoʻo tamaioʻeiki ko e fakamāfasia pe ki hoku ʻeiki ko e tuʻi?

36 Koma ine mtumiki wanu ndingoyenda pangʼono kuti ndiwoloke Yorodani pamodzi ndi mfumu. Amfumu mungandipatsirenji mphotho yotere?

‌ʻE ʻalu mamaʻo siʻi atu pe ʻa hoʻo tamaioʻeiki mo e tuʻi ki he kauvai ʻe taha ʻo Sioatani: pea ko e hā hono ʻuhinga ʻoe totongi kiate au ʻe he tuʻi ʻi ha totongi pehē fau?

37 Muloleni, mtumiki wanu abwerere, kuti ndikafere kwathu pafupi ndi manda a abambo ndi amayi anga. Koma nayu mtumiki wanu Kimuhamu. Muloleni iye awoloke nanu mbuye wanga mfumu. Mumuchitire chilichonse chimene chikukomereni!”

‌ʻOku ou kole kiate koe, tuku ʻa hoʻo tamaioʻeiki ke toe foki ki mui, koeʻuhi ke u mate ʻi hoku kolo ʻoʻoku, ʻo ofi ki he faʻitoka ʻo ʻeku tamai pea mo ʻeku faʻē. “Kae vakai, ko hoʻo tamaioʻeiki ko Kimami; tuku ke ʻalu atu ia mo hoku ʻeiki ko e tuʻi; pea ke fai kiate ia ʻaia ʻoku lelei ʻi ho ʻao.”

38 Mfumu inati, “Kimuhamu adzawoloka ndi ine, ndipo ndidzamuchitira iye chilichonse chimene chidzakondweretsa iwe. Ndipo chilichonse chimene udzandipempha ine ndidzakuchitira.”

Pea naʻe pehēange ʻe he tuʻi, “ʻE ʻalu atu mo au ʻa Kimami, pea te u fai kiate ia ʻaia te ke loto koe ki ai: pea ko ia kotoa pē ʻoku ke loto mai ke u fai, te u fai ia maʻau.”

39 Kotero anthu onse anawoloka Yorodani ndipo kenaka mfumu inawoloka. Mfumu inapsompsona Barizilai ndi kumupatsa madalitso ndipo Barizilaiyo anabwerera kwawo.

Pea naʻe aʻa atu ʻae kakai kotoa pē ʻi Sioatani. Pea hili ʻae lava atu ʻae tuʻi, naʻe ʻuma ʻe he tuʻi kia Pasilai, mo ne tāpuakiʻi ia; pea naʻe toe foki atu ia ki hono potu ʻoʻona.

40 Pamene mfumu inawolokera ku Giligala, Kimuhamu anawoloka naye. Ankhondo onse a Yuda ndi theka la ankhondo a Israeli onse anaperekeza mfumu.

Hili ia naʻe mole atu ʻae tuʻi ki Kilikali, pea naʻe ʻalu atu mo ia ʻa Kimami: pea naʻe fakafeʻao ki he tuʻi ʻae kakai kotoa pē ʻo Siuta, pea mo hono vaheua ʻoe kakai ʻo ʻIsileli.

41 Kenaka Aisraeli onse amabwera kwa mfumu nʼkumati kwa iye, “Nʼchifukwa chiyani abale athu, anthu a ku Ayuda, anakubani mfumu, nawoloka nanu Yorodani inu ndi banja lanu, pamodzi ndi anthu ake onse?”

Pea vakai, naʻe haʻu ki he tuʻi ʻae kau tangata kotoa pē ʻo ʻIsileli, ʻonau pehē ki he tuʻi, “Ko e hā kuo ʻave fakakaihaʻa ai koe ʻe homau kāinga ko e kau tangata ʻo Siuta, pea kuo nau ʻomi ʻekinautolu ʻae tuʻi, pea mo hono kaungā nofoʻanga, pea mo e kau tangata kotoa pē ʻo Tevita, ki he kauvai ni ʻo Sioatani?”

42 Ayuda onse anayankha Aisraeli kuti, “Ife timachita zimenezi chifukwa mfumu ndi mʼbale wathu. Nʼchifukwa chiyani inu mwapsa mtima ndi zimenezi? Kodi ife tinadya chakudya chilichonse cha mfumu? Kodi chilipo chimene ife tatenga kukhala chathu?”

Pea naʻe tali ʻe he kau tangata kotoa pē ʻo Siuta ki he kau tangata ʻIsileli, [ʻo pehē], “Koeʻuhi ko homau kāinga ofi lahi ʻae tuʻi: ko ia ko e hā ʻoku mou ʻita ai ʻi he meʻa ni? He kuo mau kai mei he meʻakai ʻae tuʻi? Pe kuo ne ʻomi ha koloa kiate kimautolu?”

43 Aisraeli anayankha Ayuda kuti, “Ife ndi magawo khumi mwa mfumu imeneyi, ndipo kuwonjezera apo, ife tili ndi zinthu zambiri mwa Davide kuposa inu. Tsono nʼchifukwa chiyani mukutichita chipongwe? Kodi ife si amene tinayamba kunena za kubweretsa mfumu yathu?” Koma anthu a Yuda anayankha mwaukali kwambiri kupambana anthu a ku Israeli.

Pea naʻe leaange ʻe he kau tangata ʻIsileli ki he kau tangata Siuta, ʻo pehē, “ʻOku mau maʻu ʻae vahe ʻe hongofulu ʻi he tuʻi, pea ʻoku totonu lahi hake ʻemau kau kia Tevita ʻiate kimoutolu: ko ia ko e hā kuo mou paetaku ai kiate kimautolu ʻi he ʻikai tomuʻa kumi ʻemau lea ʻamautolu ki he toe ʻomi ʻa homau tuʻi?” Pea naʻe mālohi hake ʻae ngaahi lea ʻae kau tangata Siuta ʻi he ngaahi lea naʻe fai ʻe he kau tangata ʻIsileli.
