< 1 Samuel 26 >
1 Jo-Zif nodhi Gibea ir Saulo ma giwachone niya, “Donge Daudi opondo ewi got Hakila momanyore gi Jeshimon?”
AmaZifi aya kuSawuli eGibhiya athi kuye, “UDavida kacatshanga entabeni yaseHakhila, ekhangele eJeshimoni na?”
2 Eka Saulo nodhi mwalo e piny motimo ongoro e Zif, nodhi gi joge alufu adek, jo-Israel moyier, mondo odwar Daudi kuno.
Ngakho uSawuli waya eNkangala yaseZifi, elezinkulungwane ezintathu zabantu bakhe abakhethiweyo bako-Israyeli, ukuyadinga uDavida khona.
3 Saulo noloso kambine but yo man e got Hakila momanyore gi Jeshimon, Daudi to ni kama otwo ma otimo ongoro. Kane oneno ni Saulo noseluwe kuno,
USawuli wenza isihonqo phansi komgwaqo entabeni yaseHakhila ekhangele eJeshimoni, kodwa uDavida wahlala enkangala. Kwathi ebona ukuthi uSawuli wayesemlandele khonale,
4 ne ooro jombetre mane ongʼeyo ratiro ni Saulo nosechopo.
wathuma inhloli wasekwazi ukuthi uSawuli wayefikile impela.
5 Eka Daudi nowuok modhi kuma Saulo nojotie. Noneno kama Saulo gi Abner wuod Ner ma jatend jolwenje, noyudo osenindoe. Saulo ne nindo ei kambi, ka jolweny olwore.
Ngakho uDavida wasuka waya lapho uSawuli ayemise khona wabona lapho okwakulele khona uSawuli lo-Abhineri indodana kaNeri, umlawuli webutho. USawuli wayelele phakathi kwesihonqo, ibutho lisezihonqweni limhanqile.
6 Daudi nopenjo Ahimelek ja-Hiti gi Abishai wuod Zeruya, mowadgi Joab niya, “Ngʼama biro dhi koda mwalo e kambi ir Saulo?” Abishai nowacho niya, “Abiro dhi kodi.”
UDavida wasebuza u-Ahimeleki umHithi lo-Abhishayi indodana kaZeruya, umfowabo kaJowabi, wathi, “Ngubani ozahamba lami phakathi kwesihonqo kuSawuli na?” U-Abhishayi wathi, “Ngizahamba lawe.”
7 Daudi gi Abishai nodhi ir jolweny gotieno, Saulo nonindo kanyo e kambi kochwoyo tonge piny yo ka wiye. Abner gi jolweny nonindo kolwore.
Ngakho uDavida lo-Abhishayi baya ebuthweni ebusuku babona uSawuli elele ubuthongo phakathi kwesihonqo umkhonto wakhe ugwaze phansi eduzane lekhanda lakhe. U-Abhineri lamabutho babelele bemhanqile.
8 Abishai nowachone Daudi niya, “Kawuono Nyasaye oseketo jasiki e lweti. Koro yiena mondo achwowe dichiel gi tonga; ok abi chwowe diriyo.”
U-Abhishayi wasesithi kuDavida, “Lamhla uNkulunkulu unikele isitha sakho ezandleni zakho. Khathesi-ke kahle ngimgwazele phansi kanye nje ngomkhonto wami; kangiyi kugalela kabili.”
9 To Daudi nowachone Abishai niya, “Kik inege! En ngʼa manyalo keto lwete kuom ngʼat Jehova Nyasaye mowir ma ok oket ne bura?”
Kodwa uDavida wathi ku-Abhishayi, “Ungambulali. Ngubani ongabeka isandla kogcotshiweyo kaThixo angabi lecala na?”
10 Nowacho niya, “Akwongʼora gi nying Jehova Nyasaye mangima, ni Jehova Nyasaye owuon ema nonege; kata ndalone chiengʼ moro nochopi mi otho kata nodhi e lweny mi notho kuno.
Wasesithi, “Ngeqiniso elinjengoba uThixo ekhona, uThixo yena ngokwakhe uzamtshaya; mhlawumbe isikhathi sakhe sizafika afe, loba aye empini abhubhe.
11 To Jehova Nyasaye ok diyiena ni mondo ater lweta kuom ngʼat Jehova Nyasaye mowir. Koro kaw tongʼ gi puga mar pi machiegni gi wiye kaeto wadhi.”
Kodwa uThixo kanqabele ukuba ngibeke isandla kogcotshiweyo kaThixo. Thatha umkhonto lesigxingi samanzi okuphansi kwekhanda lakhe, sihambe.”
12 Omiyo Daudi nokawo tongʼ kod puga mar pi mane nitie machiegni gi wi Saulo kendo negidhi. Onge ngʼama nonenogi kata mane ongʼeyo wachno, bende onge ngʼama ne ochiewo. Giduto ne ginindo, nikech Jehova Nyasaye nomiyogi nindo matut.
Ngakho uDavida wathatha umkhonto lesigxingi samanzi okwakuphansi kwekhanda likaSawuli, basebehamba. Bonke babelele ngoba uThixo wayebehlisele ubuthongo obukhulu.
13 Eka Daudi nongʼado modhi loka machielo mochungʼ ewi got kuma bor; ne odhi mochwalore kodgi; ne nitie thuolo malach e kindgi.
UDavida wachaphela ngakwelinye icele wema phezu kwentatshana khatshana; kwakulebanga elibanzi phakathi kwabo.
14 Nopenjo jolweny kod Abner wuod Ner niya, “Bende unyalo dwoka, Abner?” Abner nodwoke niya, “In ngʼa maluongo ruoth?”
Wamemeza ibutho lo-Abhineri indodana kaNeri, wathi, “Kanti kawungiphenduli, Abhineri na?” U-Abhineri waphendula wathi, “Ungubani wena omemeza inkosi na?”
15 Daudi nopenjo Abner niya, “Donge in ngʼama dichwo? To ere ngʼama chal kodi e Israel? Angʼo momiyo ne ok irito ruodhi ma en ruoth? Ngʼato nobiro mondo oneg ruodhi ma ruoth.
UDavida wathi, “Uyindoda, kawusiyo na? Njalo ngubani onjengawe ko-Israyeli na? Kungani ungayilindanga inkosi yakho na? Umuntu othile ufikile ukuba abulale inkosi yakho.
16 Gima isetimo ok ber. Akwongʼora gi nying Jehova Nyasaye mangima ni in kod jogi uwinjoru gi tho, nikech ne ok urito ruodhu ma ngʼat Jehova Nyasaye mowir. Ranguru anena, ere tongʼ mar ruoth gi puga mar pi mane nitiere machiegni gi wiye?”
Okwenzileyo kakukuhle. Ngeqiniso elinjengoba uThixo ephila, wena labantu bakho lifanele ukufa, ngoba kaliyilindanga inkosi yenu, ogcotshiweyo kaThixo. Khangelani emaceleni enu. Ungaphi umkhonto wenkosi lesigxingi samanzi okube kuphansi kwekhanda layo na?”
17 Saulo nochamo dwond Daudi mowacho niya, “Mano en dwondi Daudi wuoda?” Daudi nodwoke niya, “Ee mano dwonda ruodha ma ruoth.”
USawuli walazi ilizwi likaDavida, wasesithi, “Yilizwi lakho lelo yini, Davida ndodana yami?” UDavida waphendula wathi, “Yebo yilo, nkosi, nkosi yami.”
18 Kendo nomedo wacho niya, “Angʼo momiyo ruodha lawo jatichne? Angʼo masetimo, rach mane madimi abed jaketho?
Wengeza wathi, “Kanti kungani inkosi yami ixotshana lenceku yayo na? Kuyini engikwenzileyo, njalo licala bani engilalo na?
19 Koro ruoth ma ruodha oyie owinj weche ma jatije wacho. Ka diponi Jehova Nyasaye ema thuya kodi, to madoyie okaw misango. To ka dipo ni ji ema timo mano to mondo okwongʼ-gi e nyim Jehova Nyasaye! Koro giseriemba mondo kik ayud girkeni ma Jehova Nyasaye omiya kagiwacho ni, ‘Dhi iti ne nyiseche mamoko.’
Khathesi-ke nkosi, nkosi yami, lalela amazwi enceku yakho. Nxa uThixo ekuqubule ukuba umelane lami, kamkele umhlatshelo. Kodwa nxa kwenziwe ngabantu, kabathukwe phambi kukaThixo! Khathesi sebengixotshile esabelweni sami elifeni likaThixo njalo bathi, ‘Hamba uyekhonza abanye onkulunkulu.’
20 Koro yie mondo remba kik oo piny kuma bor gi kama Jehova Nyasaye nitie. Ruodh Israel osewuok mondo odwar kikun mana kaka ngʼato dwaro winyo e gode.”
Ungenzi igazi lami lichithekele phansi khatshana lobukhona bukaThixo. Inkosi yako-Israyeli iphumile ukuzadinga insikizi njengomuntu ozingela isikhwehle ezintabeni.”
21 Eka Saulo nowacho niya, “Asetimo marach, omiyo duogi, Daudi wuoda. Nikech ne ineno ni ngimana ber kendo owinjore bedie kawuono. Ok nachak atem mondo ahinyi kendo. Adieri asetimo tim ngʼat mofuwo kendo aseketho marach.”
Lapho-ke uSawuli wathi, “Ngenze isono. Buya Davida, ndodana yami. Ngenxa yokuthi ukhangele impilo yami njengegugu lamhla, kangiyikuzama futhi ukwenza okubi kuwe. Ngempela ngenze ubuwula njalo ngiphambanise kakhulu.”
22 Daudi nodwoko niya, “Tongʼ mar ruoth eri ni ka. Or achiel kuom yawuowi obi oome.
UDavida waphendula wathi, “Nanku umkhonto wenkosi. Wothi omunye wezinsizwa zakho keze ngapha azewuthatha.
23 To Jehova Nyasaye chiwo pok ne ngʼato ka ngʼato moromore gi ratiche gi timne makare. Kawuono Jehova Nyasaye nochiwi e lweta to ne ok anyal keto lweta kuom ngʼat Jehova Nyasaye mowir.
UThixo uyamnika umvuzo umuntu wonke ngenxa yokulunga kwakhe lokuthembeka kwakhe. UThixo ukunikele ezandleni zami lamhla, kodwa kade ngingeke ngibeke isandla kogcotshiweyo kaThixo.
24 Mana kaka ngimani nelongʼona kawuono, mad ngimana bende bed malongʼo ni Jehova Nyasaye mondo oresa e chandruok duto.”
Ngeqiniso njengoba ngiqakathekise ukuphila kwakho lamhla, sengathi kanjalo-ke uThixo angaqakathekisa ukuphila kwami angisindise kukho konke ukuhlupheka.”
25 Eka Saulo nowachone Daudi niya, “Mad gwedhi wuoda Daudi; ibiro timo gik madongo adieri inilochi.” Bangʼ mano Daudi nodhi yore, to Saulo nodok dala.
Lapho-ke uSawuli wathi kuDavida, “Sengathi ungabusiseka, ndodana yami Davida; uzakwenza izinto ezinkulu njalo unqobe.” UDavida wasuka wazihambela, uSawuli wasebuyela ekhaya.
