2 Samuel 16
1 Devit ni monsom kuet a tapoung navah, Mephibosheth e a san Ziba ni a dawn nahan la kahni touh a rakueng. Vaiyei tueng 200, misur bom ka ke e 100, thaibunglung paw 100, touh hoi misur um buet touh la dawk a phu sak.
Kwathi uDavida esehambe ibanga elifitshane ngale kwenqongo, wabona uZibha, isikhonzi sikaMefibhoshethi, elindele ukumhlangabeza, elodwendwe lwabobabhemi ababotshelwe izihlalo bethwele izinkwa ezingamakhulu amabili, ikhulu lamakhekhe ezithelo ezonyisiweyo, ikhulu lamakhekhe omkhiwa kanye lomgodla wewayini.
2 Siangpahrang ni Ziba koevah, bangtelah na sak hane maw hete hno heh na sin atipouh. Ziba ni la heh siangpahrang imthung a kâcui nahane, vaiyei hoi a pawnaw teh thoundounnaw ni a ca hane, misurtui hai kahrawngum a tha katawnnaw ni a nei hane doeh telah atipouh.
Inkosi yabuza uZibha yathi, “Ukuletheleni lokhu na?” UZibha waphendula wathi, “Obabhemi ngabendlu yenkosi ukuba bagade, izinkwa lezithelo ngokwabantu ukuba badle, iwayini ngelokuqaqabula labo abaphela amandla enkangala.”
3 Siangpahrang ni na bawipa e capa hah namaw ao telah a pacei. Ziba ni Jerusalem kho dawk ao. Sahnin vah Isarelnaw ni apa e uknae hah na poe han telah ati doeh na a telah atipouh.
Inkosi yasibuza yathi, “Indodana yendodana yenkosi yakho ingaphi na?” UZibha wathi kuyo, “Ihlezi eJerusalema, ngoba icabanga ithi, ‘Lamhla indlu ka-Israyeli izangibuyisela umbuso kababamkhulu.’”
4 Siangpahrang ni Ziba koe vah Mephibosheth ni a tawn e hno pueng nange lah ao toe telah atipouh. Ziba ni na hmalah kârahnoum laihoi ka tho. Oe siangpahrang ka bawipa, na minhmai kahawi ka hmu thai nahan pou kâyawm han telah atipouh.
Inkosi yasisithi kuZibha, “Konke okwakungokuka Mefibhoshethi khathesi sekungokwakho.” UZibha wathi, “Ngikhothama ngokuzithoba. Sengathi ngingathola umusa emehlweni akho mhlekazi wami, nkosi.”
5 Devit siangpahrang teh Bahurim kho a pha toteh, Sawl imthung Gera capa a min Shimei teh thoebo laihoi a tho.
Kwathi Inkosi uDavida efika eBhahurimi, umuntu wosendo lunye labendlu kaSawuli, waphuma evela lapho. Ibizo lakhe lalinguShimeyi indodana kaGera, njalo waphuma esethuka.
6 Devit hoi siangpahrang e a sannaw hah talung hoi a dêi awh. Taminaw hoi athakaawme taminaw teh avoilah aranglah ao awh.
Wajikijela uDavida lezikhulu zonke zenkosi ngamatshe, lanxa amabutho wonke labalindi abakhethiweyo babengakwesokudla lakwesokhohlo kukaDavida.
7 Shimei ni thoebo nalaihoi cet leih khe, cet leih khe, nange thi ka palawng e hoi tamikayon,
Ekuthukeni kwakhe uShimeyi wathi, “Phuma, phuma, wena wegazi, wena sixhwali!
8 Sawl e a uknae a la teh, Sawl imthung e a thi paling nange na lû dawk BAWIPA ni a pha sak teh, a uknaeram teh na capa Absalom a poe toe. Thi ka palawng e lah na o dawkvah, namahoima runae na kâpoe e doeh telah atipouh.
UThixo usephindisele kuwe ngenxa yegazi lonke owalichithayo kwabendlu kaSawuli, wena osubusa esikhundleni sakhe. UThixo umbuso usewunike indodana yakho u-Abhisalomu. Wena usudilikile ngoba ungumuntu wegazi!”
9 Zeruiah capa Abishai ni siangpahrang koevah, bangkongmaw ui ro ni ka bawipa thoe a bo. A lû ka tâtueng pouh han telah atipouh.
Lapho-ke u-Abhishayi indodana kaZeruya wathi enkosini, “Kungani inja efileyo le ithuka inkosi yami? Ngivumelani ngiyequma ikhanda layo.”
10 Siangpahrang ni nangmouh Zeruiah capanaw, nangmanaw hoi kai teh bangpuibangpa nahoeh. BAWIPA ni Devit hah thoebo lah awmseh, telah ahni koe lawk thui pawiteh thoebo yawkaw naseh. Hatdawkvah, bangkongmaw hettelah na sak telah apinihai tet pouh mahoeh toe.
Kodwa inkosi yathi, “Kuyini okulihlanganisa lami, lina madodana kaZeruya? Nxa ethuka ngenxa yokuthi uThixo uthe kuye, ‘Mthuke uDavida,’ ngubani ongabuza ukuthi, ‘Lokhu ukwenzelani na?’”
11 Devit ni Abishai hoi a sannaw koe, ka thung hoi ka tâcawt e ka capa ni, thei hanelah na noung pawiteh, Benjamin miphunnaw ni hothlak thei han na noung han doeh. Bangtelah hai tet awh hanh. Thoe na bo yawkaw naseh. BAWIPA ni a sak sak e doeh.
UDavida wasesithi ku-Abhishayi lakuzo zonke izikhulu zakhe, “Indodana yami, eyinyama yami, izama ukungibulala. Pho umBhenjamini lo-ke! Myekeleni enjalo; yekelani athuke, ngoba uThixo umtshele ukuba enze njalo.
12 BAWIPA ni ka rucatnae a hmu vaiteh, ahni ni thoe na bo e heh ahawinae koe lahoi BAWIPA ni na pathung e lahai ao han telah Abishai hoi a sannaw koe a dei pouh.
Engxenye uThixo uzalubona usizi lwami angibuyisele okuhle ngenxa yokuthukwa engikwenziwayo lamhla.”
13 Devit hoi a taminaw teh lam dawk a cei awh lahun navah, Shimei teh Devit hoi phekkadangka lah mon langboung a cei teh, thoebo nalaihoi talung hoi a dei teh, vaiphu a kahei sin.
Ngakho uDavida labantu bonke waqhubeka elandela umgwaqo uShimeyi yena ehamba eyame intaba maqondana laye, ehamba elokhu ethuka njalo emjikijela ngamatshe emthela langengcekeza.
14 Siangpahrang hoi a hnukkâbangnaw teh a tawn poung awh. Jordan tui koe a pha awh teh a kâhat awh.
Inkosi labantu bayo bafika lapho ababesiya khona sebediniwe. Kulapho abaphumula khona.
15 Absalom hoi a taminaw pueng Jerusalem kho a pha awh teh, ahni koe Ahithophel hah ao.
Ngalesosikhathi, u-Abhisalomu labantu bonke bako-Israyeli bafika eJerusalema, lo-Ahithofeli wayelaye.
16 Devit e a hui Arki tami Hushai teh Absalom koe a pha toteh, Hushai ni Absalom koevah, siangpahrang na hring saw naseh, siangpahrang na hring saw naseh telah yawhawinae a poe.
Lapho-ke uHushayi umʼArikhi, umngane kaDavida, waya ku-Abhisalomu wathi kuye, “Impilo ende nkosi! Impilo ende nkosi!”
17 Absalom ni Hushai koevah, hettelamaw na hui na lungpataw, bangkongmaw na hui koe na cei hoeh telah ati.
U-Abhisalomu wabuza uHushayi wathi, “Lolu yilo uthando olutshengisa umngane wakho na? Kungani ungahambanga lomngane wakho na?”
18 Hushai ni Absalom koevah, ka cet mahoeh, Cathut ama hoi ahnimouh Isarelnaw ni a rawi awh e koe a san lah ka o han, ahni koe ka o han atipouh.
UHushayi wathi ku-Abhisalomu, “Hayi, lowo okhethwe nguThixo, langabantu laba, labantu bonke bako-Israyeli ngizakuba ngowakhe, njalo ngizahlala laye.
19 Apie thaw maw ka tawk han. A capa koe thaw ka tawk han nahoehmaw. Na pa e hmalah thaw ka tawk e patetlah nange hmalah ka tawk han telah atipouh.
Phezu kwalokho, ngubani engingamkhonza na? Akumelanga ngikhonze indodana na? Njengoba ngakhonza uyihlo, kanjalo ngizakukhonza.”
20 Absalom ni Ahithophel koe bangtelamaw ka sak han, pouknae na poe haw telah atipouh.
U-Abhisalomu wasesithi ku-Ahithofeli, “Ake useluleke. Kuyini esingakwenza na?”
21 Ahithophel ni na pa e a yudo im karingkungnaw a ta e naw koe kâen sin. Isarelnaw ni na pa ni na maithoe tie panuek awh vaiteh, nang koe kaawm e naw e kut teh a tha a sai awh han atipouh.
U-Ahithofeli waphendula wathi, “Lala labafazi bakayihlo abaseceleni abatshiya belinde isigodlo. Lapho-ke u-Israyeli wonke uzakuzwa ukuthi wena usuzenze waba liphunga elibi emakhaleni kayihlo, njalo izandla zabantu bonke abalawe zizaqiniswa.”
22 Hottelah imvan vah Absalom hanelah rim a sak pouh awh. Hottelah Isarelnaw e a hmaitung vah, a na pa e yudonaw koe a kâen.
Ngakho u-Abhisalomu bamisela ithente phezu kophahla lwendlu, walala labafazi bakayise beceleni u-Israyeli wonke ekhangele.
23 Hatnae tueng nah Ahithophel ni pouknae a poe e teh, Cathut lawk patetlah ouk pouk pouh e lah ao. Hot patetlah Ahithophel ni Devit hoi Absalom pouknae a poe e pueng teh, pouk pouh e lah ao.
Ngalezonsuku iseluleko sika-Ahithofeli, sasifana lesalowo obuze uNkulunkulu. Lokho kwaba yiyo indlela uDavida lo-Abhisalomu abakhangela ngayo zonke izeluleko zika-Ahithofeli.
