< 2 Samuel 14 >
1 Joab wuod Zeruya nongʼeyo ni chuny ruoth gombo Abisalom.
UJowabi indodana kaZeruya wasenanzelela ukuthi inhliziyo yenkosi ikuAbisalomu.
2 Omiyo Joab nooro ngʼat moro Tekoa mi okelne dhako moro mariek koa kuno. Nowachone niya, “Wuondri ni ikuyo. Rwak lep ywak kendo kik iwirri gi mo del. Chal ka dhako mosebet ka ywago ngʼate motho kuom ndalo mangʼeny.
UJowabi wasethumela eThekhowa ukuthi alande khona owesifazana ohlakaniphileyo, wathi kuye: Ake uzitshaye olilayo, ake ugqoke izigqoko zokulila, ungazigcobi ngamafutha, kodwa ube njengowesifazana oselilele ofileyo insuku ezinengi.
3 Bangʼe idhi ir ruoth kendo iwachne wechegi.” Joab nomiye weche monego owach.
Ungene enkosini, ukhulume kuyo ngalindlela. UJowabi wasefaka amazwi emlonyeni wakhe.
4 Kane dhako moa Tekoa odhi ir ruoth, nokulore nyaka e lowo auma mar miye luor, eka nowachone niya, “Konya, yaye ruoth!”
Lapho owesifazana umThekhowa ekhuluma enkosini, wathi mbo ngobuso bakhe emhlabathini, wakhothama, wathi: Siza, nkosi!
5 Ruoth nopenje niya, “Angʼo machandi?” Nowacho niya, “Chutho, an dhako ma chwore otho; chwora nosetho.
Inkosi yasisithi kuye: Ulani? Yena wasesithi: Sibili, ngingumfazi ongumfelokazi, lendoda yami yafa.
6 An jatichni, ne an gi yawuowi ariyo. Negigore ka gin oko e pap, ne onge ngʼato machiegni mane nyalo thegogi. Achiel nogoyo machielo mi onege.
Njalo incekukazi yakho yayilamadodana amabili, alwa womabili egangeni; kwakungelamlamuli phakathi kwawo; enye yasitshaya enye, yayibulala.
7 Koro anywola duto orido ni jatichni matek; kagiwacho ni, Gol ngʼat mane onego owadgi, mondo wanege, kaka ne onego owadgi; eka wanatieki nyaka jarit girkeni bende. Koro gidwaro nego mirni maliel madongʼ-go, ka giweyo chwora dongʼ maonge nying kata kothe modongʼ e wangʼ piny.”
Khangela-ke, usendo lonke seluvukele incekukazi yakho, bathi: Nikela lowo owatshaya umfowabo wambulala, ukuthi simbulale ngenxa yempilo yomfowabo ambulalayo, sichithe lendlalifa. Ngalokho bacitshe ilahle lami eliseleyo, ukuze bangatshiyeli indoda yami ibizo lensali ebusweni bomhlaba.
8 Ruoth nowacho ni dhakoni niya, “Dhi dala, kendo abiro golo chik e wachnino.”
Inkosi yasisithi kowesifazana: Yana endlini yakho; mina-ke ngizalaya ngawe.
9 To dhako moa Tekoa nowachone niya, “Ruodha ma en ruoth, we mondo ketho odongʼ e wiya kendo ewi dhood wuora, to mondo ruoth gi kom ruodhe obed maonge ketho.”
Owesifazana umThekhowa wasesithi enkosini: Nkosi yami, nkosi, icala kalibe phezu kwami laphezu kwendlu kababa; kodwa inkosi lesihlalo sayo sobukhosi kube msulwa.
10 Ruoth nodwoke niya, “Ka ngʼato owachoni gimoro, to mondo ikele ira, ma ok nochak ochandi kendo.”
Inkosi yasisithi: Okhuluma ulutho kuwe, umlethe kimi, njalo kayikuphinda akuthinte futhi.
11 Nowacho niya, “Kara koro ruoth osingre gi nying Jehova Nyasaye ni odhi tamo jachul kuor mondo kik omed ketho kendo mondo wuoda kik negi.” Nowacho niya, “Akwongʼora gi nying Jehova Nyasaye mangima ni onge yie wi wuodi kata achiel manolwar piny.”
Wasesithi: Inkosi ake ikhumbule iNkosi uNkulunkulu wayo ukuthi umphindiseli wegazi angabe esachitha, hlezi bachithe indodana yami. Yasisithi: Kuphila kukaJehova, kakuyikuwela emhlabathini olulodwa unwele lwendodana yakho.
12 Eka dhakono nowachone niya, “Yie iwe jatichni owach wach moro ni ruodhe ma en ruoth.” Nodwoke niya, “Wachi.”
Owesifazana wasesithi: Incekukazi yakho ake ikhulume ilizwi enkosini yami inkosi. Yasisithi: Khuluma.
13 Kendo dhakono nowacho niya, “Kara en angʼo momiyo isengʼado wach marach kama kuom jo-Nyasaye? Ka ruoth wacho kama, donge ongʼado bura ne en owuon, nikech ruoth pok odwogo wuode mane oriembi.
Owesifazana wasesithi: Pho, unakaneleni okunje ngabantu bakaNkulunkulu? Ngokukhuluma lindaba inkosi injengolecala, ngokuthi inkosi kayibuyisanga oxotshiweyo wayo.
14 Kaka pi mopukore piny ma ok nyal tuom kendo, omiyo nyaka watho. To Nyasaye ok neg ngʼato; kar timo kamano, to oloso yore mondo ngʼat mane oriembi kik osiki ka en jasike.
Ngoba kumele sife, sinjengamanzi achithekele emhlabathini angabuthwanga; kodwa uNkulunkulu kayikususa impilo, kodwa uzacabanga amacebo ukuthi angalahli kuye oxotshiweyo.
15 “To koro sani asebiro mondo awach ma ni ruodha ma en ruoth nikech ji osemiya luoro. Jatichni noparo ni, ‘Abiro wuoyo gi ruoth; kamoro dipo kotimo gima jatichne okwaye.
Ngakho-ke, njengoba ngizile ukukhuluma linto enkosini, inkosi yami, kungoba abantu bangesabisile; incekukazi yakho yasisithi: Khathesi ngizakhuluma lenkosi; mhlawumbe inkosi izakwenza ilizwi lencekukazi yayo.
16 Kamoro dipo ruoth biro yie mondo okony jatichne e lwet ngʼat madwaro tieka an kaachiel gi wuoda e girkeni mane Nyasaye omiyowa.’
Ngoba inkosi izakuzwa, ukukhulula incekukazi yayo esandleni somuntu ofuna ukuchitha mina kanye lendodana yami elifeni likaNkulunkulu.
17 “To koro sani jatichni wacho ni, ‘Mad wach ruodha kelna kwe, nimar ruodha ma en ruoth chal gi malaika mar Nyasaye manono ber gi rach. Mad Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachi bed kodi.’”
Incekukazi yakho yasisithi: Akuthi ilizwi lenkosi yami, inkosi, libe ngelokuthula, ngoba njengengilosi kaNkulunkulu, injalo inkosi yami, inkosi, ukuzwa okubi lokuhle. Ngakho iNkosi uNkulunkulu wakho kayibe lawe.
18 Eka ruoth nowacho ni dhakono niya, “Kik ipandna dwoko e gima adwaro penji.” Dhakono nowacho niya, “Ruodha ma en ruoth owuo.”
Inkosi yasiphendula yathi kowesifazana: Ake ungangifihleli indaba engizayibuza kuwe. Owesifazana wasesithi: Ake ikhulume inkosi yami, inkosi.
19 Ruoth nopenje niya, “Donge Joab ni kodi e wechegi duto?” Dhakono nodwoke niya, “Akwongʼora e nyimi ni in ruodha ma en ruoth kendo ni gima iwachono en adier. Ee, ne en jatichni Joab mane onyisa mondo atim ma kendo en bende ema noketo wechegi e dho jatichni.
Inkosi yasisithi: Isandla sikaJowabi silawe yini kukho konke lokhu? Owesifazana wasephendula wathi: Kuphila komphefumulo wakho, nkosi yami, nkosi, isibili kakho ongaya ngakwesokunene langakwesokhohlo asuke lakuyiphi into inkosi yami, inkosi, eyikhulumileyo; ngoba inceku yakho uJowabi, yona yangilaya, yiyo eyafunza incekukazi yakho wonke lamazwi.
20 Jatichni Joab notimo ma mondo okel lokruok kuom gik matimore sanigi. Ruodha nigi rieko ka mar malaika mar Nyasaye kendo ongʼeyo gik moko duto matimore e pinywa ka.”
Inceku yakho uJowabi iyenzile linto ukuthi iphendule ukuma kwendaba. Njalo inkosi yami ihlakaniphile njengenhlakanipho yengilosi kaNkulunkulu, ukwazi konke okusemhlabeni.
21 Ruoth nowacho ni Joab niya, “Mano kare, abiro timo kamano. Dhiyo mondo iom wuowi ma Abisalom oduogi.”
Inkosi yasisithi kuJowabi: Khangela khathesi, ngenzile lindaba; ngakho hamba ubuyise umfana uAbisalomu.
22 Joab nopodho piny auma e nyime mondo omiye duongʼ, kendo nogwedho ruoth. Joab nowacho niya, “Kawuononi jatichni ongʼeyo ni ogene gi ruodha ma en ruoth, nikech ruoth oseyie timo gima jatichne okwaye.”
UJowabi wasesithi mbo ngobuso emhlabathini, wakhothama, wayibusisa inkosi; uJowabi wasesithi: Lamuhla inceku yakho iyazi ukuthi ngithole umusa emehlweni akho, nkosi yami, nkosi, ngokuthi inkosi yenzile indaba yenceku yayo.
23 Eka Joab nodhi Geshur mi okelo Abisalom Jerusalem.
Wasesuka uJowabi, waya eGeshuri, wamletha uAbisalomu eJerusalema.
24 To ruoth nowachone niya, “Nyaka odhi e ode owuon; kendo kik obi buta.” Omiyo Abisalom nodhi e ode owuon kendo ne ok osudo machiegni gi ruoth.
Inkosi yasisithi: Kaphendukele endlini yakhe, angaboni ubuso bami. Ngakho uAbisalomu waphendukela endlini yakhe, kabonanga ubuso benkosi.
25 Ei Israel duto ne onge ngʼama ipako ni jaber ka Abisalom. Koa e wiye nyaka e pat tiende ne oonge gi mbala moro amora kuome.
KoIsrayeli wonke-ke kwakungelamuntu onjengoAbisalomu ukudunyiswa kakhulu ngobuhle; kwakungelasici kuye kusukela kungaphansi yonyawo lwakhe kuze kufike enkanda yakhe.
26 E kinde duto mane olielo yie wiye, nimar nojaliel wiye kinde ka kinde nikech yie wiye ne dongo piyo kendo bedone mapek, kane opime to ne oloyo kilo ariyo kopim gi rapim mar joka ruoth.
Nxa ephuca ikhanda lakhe - ngoba kwakusithi ekupheleni kwawo wonke umnyaka aliphuce, ngoba zazinzima kuye, ngakho waliphuca - walinganisa inwele zekhanda lakhe, amashekeli angamakhulu amabili ngesilinganiso senkosi.
27 Abisalom nonywolo yawuowi adek gi nyako achiel. Nyare ne iluongo ni Tamar, kendo nodongo nyako ma jaber.
Kwasekuzalelwa uAbisalomu amadodana amathathu lendodakazi eyodwa, obizo layo lalinguTamari; wayengowesifazana omuhle ebukeka.
28 Abisalom nodak Jerusalem kuom higni ariyo kapok osudo machiegni but ruoth.
UAbisalomu wasehlala eJerusalema iminyaka emibili epheleleyo, kabonanga ubuso benkosi.
29 Eka Abisalom noluongo Joab mondo oore ir ruoth, to Joab nodagi dhi ire. Omiyo nochako ooro wach mar ariyo to nochako odagi.
UAbisalomu wasethumela kuJowabi ukuthi amthume enkosini; kodwa kavumanga ukuza kuye. Waphinda wathumela ngokwesibili, kodwa kavumanga ukuza.
30 Eka nowachone jotije niya, “Neuru puoth Joab omakore gi mara, kendo cham mar shairi ni e iye. Dhiuru umokie mach.” Omiyo jotij Abisalom nodhi momoko mach e puodhono.
Wasesithi ezincekwini zakhe: Bonani, isabelo sikaJowabi siseceleni kwesami, njalo ulebhali lapho; hambani lisithungele ngomlilo. Izinceku zikaAbisalomu zasezithungela isabelo ngomlilo.
31 Eka Joab nodhi ir Abisalom e ode mowachone niya, “Angʼo momiyo jotiji owangʼo puotha?”
Wasesuka uJowabi weza kuAbisalomu endlini, wathi kuye: Izinceku zakho zithungeleleni isabelo esingesami ngomlilo?
32 Abisalom nowacho ni Joab niya, “Ne, naoroni wach kawacho ni, ‘Bi mondo aori ir ruoth mondo ipenje kama: “Angʼo momiyo nabiro kawuok Geshur? Dine ber kane pod an kuno!”’ Sani koro adwaro dhi neno ruoth, to ka an gi ketho moro, to mondo onega.”
UAbisalomu wasesithi kuJowabi: Khangela, ngithumele kuwe ngisithi: Woza lapha, ukuze ngikuthume enkosini, ukuthi: Ngibuyeleni ngisuka eGeshuri? Bekukuhle kimi ukuthi ngabe ngilokhu ngikhonale. Ngakho-ke kangibone ubuso benkosi; njalo uba kulecala kimi, kayingibulale.
33 Omiyo Joab nodhi ir ruoth mowachone wechegi. Eka ruoth noluongo Abisalom, mi nodonjo kendo nokulore auma piny e nyim ruoth. Ruoth nonyodho Abisalom.
Ngakho uJowabi weza enkosini, wayitshela; isimbizile uAbisalomu weza enkosini, wayikhothamela ngobuso bakhe emhlabathini, phambi kwenkosi; inkosi yasimanga uAbisalomu.
