1 Samuel 20
1 David te Ramah kah Naioth lamloh yong tih Jonathan taengla a pha vaengah, “Balae ka saii tih kai kathaesainah he balae? Na pa mikhmuh ah kai kah mebang tholhnah lae aka om tih ka hinglu he a tlap,” a ti nah.
UDavida wabaleka eNayothi eRama waya kuJonathani wabuza wathi, “Kanti ngenzeni na? Icala lami ngelani na? Uyihlo ngimone kanjani, okwenza afune ukungibulala?”
2 Te dongah Jonathan loh, “Savisava la, na duek mahpawh, kai hna ah ham phoe pawt atah hno yit, hno len akhaw a pa loh saii rhoe saii pawt oe. Tahae kah olka he balae tih a pa loh kai taeng lamloh a thuh, hekah he a hong pawt nim,” a ti nah.
UJonathani waphendula wathi, “Hatshi bo! Kawuyikufa! Khangela, ubaba kenzi lutho, olukhulu loba oluncane, engangitshelanga. Kungani engangifihlela lokhu na? Akunjalo!”
3 Tedae David loh koep a toem a ngam tih, “Na mikhmuh ah mikdaithen ka dang te na pa loh a ming rhoe a ming ta, Jonathan a ming sak pawt he a kothae ve a ti dongah ni. BOEIPA kah hingnah rhangneh na hinglu khaw hingnah om dae kai laklo neh dueknah laklo he khokan kan at mai ni,” a ti nah.
Kodwa uDavida wenza isifungo wathi, “Uyihlo ukwazi kakuhle ukuthi mina sengithole umusa kuwe njalo usezitshele wathi, ‘UJonathani akumelanga akwazi lokhu hlezi ezwe ubuhlungu.’ Ikanti ngeqiniso elinjengoba uThixo ekhona lanjengoba lawe ukhona, kulenyathelo elilodwa nje phakathi kwami lokufa.”
4 Jonathan loh David te, “Mebang khaw na hinglu te dawt uh lamtah nang ham kan saii eh?,” a ti nah.
UJonathani wathi kuDavida, “Loba kuyini ofuna ukuthi ngikwenze, ngizakwenzela khona.”
5 Te dongah David loh Jonathan taengah, “Thangvuen he hlasae coeng ni ne, kai tah buh ca la manghai taengah ka ngol rhoe ka ngol ham om. Tedae kai n'tueih lamtah a thum hlaem duela kohong ah ka thuh uh mai eh.
Ngakho uDavida wathi, “Khangela, kusasa kuledili lokuThwasa kweNyanga, njalo kumele ngidle lenkosi; kodwa yekela ngiyecatsha egangeni kuze kube kusihlwa phambi kwakusasa.
6 Na pa loh kai hah n'toem tih, “David te a cako boeih ham hmueih tue a om dongah amah kho Bethlehem la yong ham kai taengah n'dawt tih a bih,” ti nah.
Nxa uyihlo ezangiswela, mtshele uthi, ‘UDavida ucele imvumo kimi ngokutshiseka ukuba ake agijimele eBhethilehema, idolobho lakibo, ngoba umhlatshelo wesizwana sonke sakibo uyenziwa khona.’
7 Tete then a ti atah na sal he sading la om ni. Tedae anih te sai la sai mai koinih anih te yoethaenah neh rhoeh coeng tila ming laeh.
Angathi, ‘Kulungile,’ inceku yakho kayiyikuba sengozini. Kodwa angavuka ulaka woba leqiniso ukuthi uzimisele ukwenza okubi kimi.
8 Tedae BOEIPA kah paipi rhangneh na sal taengah sitlohnah khueh mai. Na sal he namah taengla khuen mai. Thaesainah he ni ka khuiah a om atah kai he namah loh n'duek sak, bahamlae na pa taengla kai nan thak eh?,” a ti nah.
Kodwa wena, bonakalisa isisa encekwini yakho ngoba uyenzise isivumelwano lawe phambi kukaThixo. Nxa ngilecala, ngibulala wena ngokwakho! Kungani ungiqhubela kuyihlo na?”
9 Jonathan loh, “Nang nen tah savisava, a pa loh boethae neh a hah te ka ming la ka ming atah nang taengla pahoi ka pawk tih namah taengah ka puen moenih a,” a ti nah.
UJonathani wathi, “Hatshi bo! Kambe aluba bengilolwazi oluncane ukuthi ubaba uzimisele ukwenza okubi kuwe, kade ngingasoze ngikutshele na?”
10 David loh Jonathan te, “Na pa loh namah te mangkhak la m'voek koinih ulae kai taengla aka puen eh?,” a ti nah.
UDavida wabuza wathi, “Ngubani ozangitshela nxa uyihlo ekuphendula kubi na?”
11 Te dongah David te Jonathan loh, “Ceh, kohong la cet sih,” a ti nah tih kohong la bok cet rhoi.
UJonathani wathi, “Woza, kasiye egangeni.” Ngakho baya khonale bobabili.
12 Te vaengah Jonathan loh David te, “Israel Pathen BOEIPA rhangneh thangvuen a thum hnin ah a pa te rhep ka khe lah eh. Te vaengah David ham a then neh a then pawt khaw nang taengla kan tah vetih na hna kan cah bitni.
UJonathani wasesithi kuDavida, “Ngifunga ngoThixo, uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli, ngempela ubaba ngizakuba sengimzwile ngalesisikhathi ngomhlomunye! Nxa elomusa kuwe, kambe kangiyikuthumela ilizwi ngikwazise na?
13 Jonathan taengah he BOEIPA loh han saii saeh lamtah hang khoep nawn saeh. Nang taengah boethae ham te a pa loh a hue oeh atah na hna ah kan yaak sak vetih namah taengah ol kan tah bitni. Te vaengah sading la na cet bitni. A pa taengah a om bangla nang taengah khaw BOEIPA om saeh.
Kodwa nxa ubaba ehlose ukwenza okubi kuwe, uThixo kangijezise, kube nzima kakhulu, nxa ngingakwazisi njalo ngikususe kungekho ngozi. Sengathi uThixo angaba lawe njengoba kade elobaba.
14 Tedae kai he phat ka hing pawt atah BOEIPA kah sitlohnah te kai taengah saii boeh. Tedae kai ka duek vailaih moenih.
Kodwa ngibonise umusa ongapheliyo onjengokaThixo isikhathi sonke ngisaphila, ukuze ngingabulawa,
15 Na sitlohnah te ka imkhui dong lamloh kumhal duela haih boeh. BOEIPA loh David kah thunkha rhoek te diklai hman kah hlang lamloh a haih vaengah pataeng haih boel saeh,” a ti nah.
njalo ungasusi umusa wakho kwabendlu yakwethu lanxa uThixo eseziqede du zonke izitha zikaDavida ebusweni bomhlaba.”
16 Te phoeiah Jonathan loh David imkhui neh paipi a saii tih, “Thunkha kut lamkah David te BOEIPA loh toem nawn saeh,” a ti.
Ngakho uJonathani wenza isivumelwano labendlu kaDavida, esithi, “Sengathi uThixo angazethesa amacala izitha zikaDavida.”
17 David taengah a khueh lungnah tetah amah hinglu a lungnah vaengkah lungnah la a om dongah Jonathan loh koep a rhaep tih ol a caeng.
UJonathani wabuya wamfungisa futhi uDavida isifungo sakhe ngenxa yothando lwakhe kuye, ngoba wayemthanda njengokuzithanda kwakhe.
18 Te dongah Jonathan loh, “Thangvuen he hlasae la om tih na ngolhmuen tah hoeng vetih n'toem pawn ni.
UJonathani wasesithi kuDavida, “Kusasa kuledili lokuThwasa kweNyanga. Uzaswelakala ngoba isihlalo sakho sizabe singelamuntu.
19 A thum hnin ah koe suntla lamtah na thuh hmuen la ana cet. Te vaengah hnin kah bibi neh Ezel lungto taengah ana om ne.
Phambi kwakusasa, sekuzakuhlwa, yana lapho owacatsha khona ekuqaliseni kwaloluhlupho, ulinde elitsheni e-Ezeli.
20 Te vaengah kai loh thaltang pathum te a hael kah ka kutnoek dongah kah hamla kan thuinuet bitni.
Mina ngizatshokela imitshoko emithathu eceleni kwalo angathi ngitshokela kwengihlose kukho.

Emva kwalokho ngizathuma umfana ngithi, ‘Hamba uyedinga imitshoko.’ Ngingathi kuye, ‘Khangela, imitshoko ingakuleli icele lakho, ilethe lapha,’ lapho-ke woza, ngoba ngeqiniso elinjengoba uThixo ekhona, uphephile, akulangozi.
22 Tedae camoe te, “Na taengkah thaltang te voelh caeh tak,” ka ti atah BOEIPA long ni nang n'tueih coeng.
Kodwa ngingathi emfaneni, ‘Khangela, imitshoko ingale kwakho,’ lapho-ke kumele uhambe, ngoba uThixo uthe suka uhambe.
23 Tahae ah nang neh kai loh olka n'thui vanbangla kai laklo neh nang laklo ah kumhal duela BOEIPA om coeng ne,” a ti nah.
Njalo mayelana lalindaba esiyikhulumileyo mina lawe, khumbula ukuthi uThixo ungufakazi phakathi kwakho lami nini lanini.”
24 Te dongah David tah kohong la thuh uh. Hlasae a pha vaengah buh ca la buh kungah manghai ngol.
Ngakho uDavida wacatsha egangeni, njalo kwathi idili lokuThwasa kweNyanga selifikile, inkosi yahlala phansi yadla.
25 A noek noek kah bangla amah ngolhmuen, pangbueng taengkah ngolhmuen dongah manghai te ngol. Te phoeiah Jonathan te thoo tih Saul kaep ah Abner ngol. Tedae David kah a hmuen tah vik hoeng.
Yayihlezi endaweni yayo yezikhathi zonke phansi komduli, maqondana loJonathani, u-Abhineri ehlezi eduze loSawuli, kodwa indawo kaDavida yayingelamuntu.
26 Te vaengah a hmuet a hma te cim caih pawh a ti dongah tekah khohnin ah tah Saul he kamat khaw cal pawh.
USawuli katshongo lutho mhlalokho, ngoba wacabanga wathi, “Mhlawumbe kulento ethile eyehlele kuDavida yamenza waba ngongahlambulukanga ngokomkhuba, ngeqiniso kahlambulukanga.”
27 Tedae hlasae vuen a pha vaengah tah David kah a hmuen te a pabae la hoeng bal. Te dongah Saul loh a capa Jonathan taengah, “Jesse capa he balae tih hlaem ah khaw, tihnin ah khaw buh kung la ha mop pawh,” a ti nah.
Kodwa ngelanga elilandelayo, ilanga lesibili lenyanga, indawo kaDavida yayingelamuntu futhi. Lapho-ke uSawuli wathi endodaneni yakhe uJonathani, “Kungani indodana kaJese ingezanga ekudleni, izolo kumbe lamuhla na?”
28 Te dongah Jonathan loh Saul te, “Bethlehem la caeh ham te David loh kai taengah a bih ngawn tah a bih.
UJonathani waphendula wathi, “UDavida ucele imvumo kimi ngokutshiseka ukuba aye eBhethilehema.
29 Te vaengah, 'Kho khuiah kaimih cako kah hmueih a om dongah kai khaw ka mop vetih ka maya ka uen dae ni. Na mikhmuh ah mikdaithen ni ka dang van coeng atah ka poeng ka hal mai saeh lamtah ka manuca rhoek te ka hmu mai eh,’ a ti. Te dongah ni manghai kah caboei taengla ha mop pawh,” a ti nah.
Uthe, ‘Ngivumela ngihambe ngoba abendlu yakwethu balomkhosi womhlatshelo edolobheni njalo umnewethu ungilaye ukuba ngibe khona. Nxa ngithole umusa kuwe, ngivumela ngihambe ngiyebona abafowethu.’ Yikho-nje engezanga ukuzakudla lenkosi.”
30 Te vaengah Saul kah a thintoek loh Jonathan taengah sai tih, “Boekoek paihaeh capa, namah kah yahpohnah ham neh na nu kah a yah te yahpohnah ham Jesse capa taengah na kaibaeng te ka ming moenih a?
Ulaka lukaSawuli lwavutha kuJonathani wathi kuye, “Wena ndodana yomfazi olihlongandlebe lolenkani! Uthi kangazi yini ukuthi wena ususekelane lendodana kaJese okulihlazo kuwe njalo okulihlazo lakunyoko owakuzalayo na?
31 Jesse capa te diklai ah a hing khuiah namah khaw na ram na thoh thai mahpawh. Te dongah anih te ol tah lamkah kai taengla hang khuen, amah te duek ca kangna saeh,” a ti nah.
Nxa indodana kaJese isekhona kulo umhlaba, wena kawuyikuma kumbe umbuso wakho. Ngakho thumela ilizwi umlethe kimi, ngoba umele afe!”
32 Tedae Jonathan loh a napa Saul te a doo tih, “Balae tih anih te a duek eh? Balae a saii tih?,” a ti nah.
UJonathani wabuza uyise wathi, “Kungani kumele abulawe? Wenzeni na?”
33 Te vaengah anih ngawn hamla Saul loh a taengkah caai neh a khoh. Te daengah David duek sak ham a napa loh a taeng te Jonathan loh a ming.
Kodwa uSawuli waphosa umkhonto wakhe kuye ukuba ambulale. Ngakho uJonathani wakwazi ukuthi uyise wayehlose ukubulala uDavida.
34 Te dongah Jonathan khaw caboei dong lamloh thintoek thinling neh thoo tih hlasae a pabae khohnin kah buh te ca pawh. David ham a kothae tih a napa ham a hmaithae.
UJonathani wasuka etafuleni ethukuthele kakhulu; ngosuku lwesibili lwedili kazange adle, ngoba wayebuhlungu ngehlazo uyise ayephatha ngalo uDavida.
35 David kah tingtunnah ham mincang a pha vaengah Jonathan tah amah taengkah cadong ca neh kohong la cet.
Ekuseni uJonathani waphuma waya egangeni ukuyahlangana loDavida. Wayelomfana omncinyane,
36 Te vaengah a taengkah cadong te, “Yong lamtah kai loh thaltang kan thuinuet te so laeh,” a ti nah. Camoe te a yong phai vaengah amah a thuinuet palaa te a poeng.
njalo wathi emfaneni, “Gijima uyedobha imitshoko engiyitshokayo.” Umfana esagijima, watshokela umtshoko ngale kwakhe.
37 Jonathan kah palaa a thuinuet nah hmuen te camoe loh a pha vaengah, Jonathan loh camoe te a hnuk longah a khue tih, “Nang taengah palaa om pawt tih voelh cet coeng nama?,” a ti nah.
Kwathi umfana esefike lapho umtshoko kaJonathani owawuwele khona, uJonathani wamemeza wathi, “Umtshoko kawukho ngale kwakho na?”
38 Te phoeiah Jonathan loh cadong te a hnuk longah, “A loe la tawn uh latam pai boeh,” a ti nah. Te dongah palaa thaltang te Jonathan kah camoe loh a rhuh tih a boei taengla ha pawk.
Wabuye wamemeza wathi, “Phangisa! Ukhawuleze! Ungemi!” Umfana wadobha umtshoko wabuyela enkosini yakhe.
39 Te vaengkah olka te Jonathan neh David bueng loh a ming dae camoe longtah pakhat khaw ming pawh.
(Umfana wayengazi lutho ngakho konke lokhu; kusazi uJonathani loDavida kuphela.)
40 A hno a pai te Jonathan loh amah taengkah camoe taengla a paek tih, “Cet lamtah khopuei khuila khuen laeh,” a ti nah.
Emva kwalokho uJonathani wanika umfana izikhali zakhe wathi, “Hamba, zithwale ubuyele lazo edolobheni.”
41 Camoe a khum neh David te tuithim ben lamkah ha moe. Te vaengah a tal neh diklai la bakop tih voei thum a bawk. Pakhat loh a hui patoeng a mok uh rhoi vaengah pakhat loh a hui patoeng taengah rhap rhoi tih David te nah.
Umfana esehambile uDavida wasukuma eceleni langaseningizimu kwelitshe, wakhothama kathathu phambi kukaJonathani, ubuso bakhe bukhangele phansi. Emva kwalokho bangana, bakhala bendawonye kodwa uDavida wakhala kakhulu.
42 Te phoeiah David te Jonathan loh, “BOEIPA ming neh mamih rhoi loh n'toemngam tih, 'Kai laklo neh nang laklo ah, kai tiingan laklo neh nang kah tiingan laklo ah kumhal duela BOEIPA om,’ n'ti dongah ngaimong la cet ne,” a ti nah.
UJonathani wasesithi kuDavida, “Hamba ngokuthula, ngoba sifungelane ubungane omunye komunye ebizweni likaThixo sisithi, ‘Uthixo ungufakazi phakathi kwami lawe, laphakathi kwenzalo yakho leyami nini lanini.’” UDavida wasesuka, loJonathani wasebuyela edolobheni.
