2 Samuel 1
1 And it was after [the] death of Saul and David he returned from defeating Amalek and he remained David in Ziklag days two.
Oluvannyuma lw’okufa kwa Sawulo, Dawudi n’agenda n’abeera e Zikulagi n’amalayo ennaku bbiri, ng’amaze okusaanyaawo Abamaleki.
2 And it was - on the day third and there! a man [was] coming from the camp from with Saul and garments his [were] torn and earth [was] on head his and it was when came he to David and he fell [the] ground towards and he bowed down.
Awo olwatuuka ku lunaku olwokusatu, ne wajja omusajja ng’ava mu lusiisira lwa Sawulo, ng’ayuzizza ebyambalo bye, nga ne mu mutwe gwe mulimu enfuufu. Bwe yatuuka awali Dawudi, n’avuunama ng’amuwa ekitiibwa.
3 And he said to him David where? from this are you coming and he said to him from [the] camp of Israel I have escaped.
Dawudi n’amubuuza nti, “Ova wa?” N’amuddamu nti, “Ndi kaawonawo okuva mu lusiisira lwa Isirayiri.”
4 And he said to him David what? was it the word tell please to me and he said that it has fled the people from the battle and also [surely] a multitude has fallen of the people and they have died and also Saul and Jonathan son his they have died.
Dawudi n’ayogera nti, “Ntegeeza ebyabaddewo.” N’ayogera nti, “Abantu badduse mu lutalo, era bangi ku bo bafudde. Sawulo ne Yonasaani mutabani we nabo bafudde.”
5 And he said David to the young man who had told to him how? do you know that he has died Saul and Jonathan son his.
Awo Dawudi n’agamba omuvubuka eyamutegeeza amawulire ago nti, “Otegedde otya nga Sawulo ne mutabani we Yonasaani nabo bafudde?”
6 And he said the young man - who had told to him [surely] by chance I found myself on [the] mountain of Gilboa and there! Saul [was] leaning on spear his and there! the chariotry and [the] owners of the horses they overtook him.
Omuvubuka n’amugamba nti, “Bwe nnali awo ku lusozi Girubowa, ne ndaba Sawulo nga yeesigamye ku ffumu lye era n’amagaali n’abeebagala embalaasi eby’omulabe nga bamucocca.
7 And he turned behind him and he saw me and he called to me and I said here [am] I.
Awo bwe yakyusa amaaso ge n’andaba, n’ankowoola, ne muddamu nti, ‘Nkukolere ki?’
8 And he said to me who? [are] you (and I said *Q(K)*) to him [am] an Amalekite I.
“N’ambuuza nti, ‘Ggwe ani?’ “Ne muddamu nti, ‘Ndi Mwamaleki.’
9 And he said to me stand please over me and kill me for it has seized me dizziness for all still life my [is] in me.
“N’alyoka aŋŋamba nti, ‘Nnyimirirako onzite! Ndi mu masaŋŋanzira ag’okufa newaakubadde nga ndabika ng’akyalimu obulamu.’
10 And I stood over him and I killed him for I knew that not he will live after had fallen he and I took the crown - which [was] on head his and an armlet which [was] on arm his and I brought them to lord my here.
“Kyennava muyimirirako ne mutta, kubanga n’ategeera nga takyalamye. Ne ntwala engule eyali ku mutwe gwe n’ekikomo ekyali ku mukono gwe, era biibino mbireetedde mukama wange.”
11 And he took hold David (on garments his *Q(K)*) and he tore them and also all the men who [were] with him.
Awo Dawudi n’abasajja bonna be yali nabo, ne bayuza ebyambalo byabwe.
12 And they mourned and they wept and they fasted until the evening on Saul and on Jonathan son his and on [the] people of Yahweh and on [the] house of Israel for they had fallen by the sword.
Ne bakaaba, ne bakungubaga ne basiiba okutuusa akawungeezi ku lwa Sawulo ne Yonasaani mutabani we; ne ku lw’eggye lya Mukama, ne ku lw’ennyumba ya Isirayiri; kubanga bonna baali bafudde n’ekitala.
13 And he said David to the young man who had told to him where? from this [are] you and he said [am the] son of a man a sojourner an Amalekite I.
Awo Dawudi n’agamba omuvubuka eyamutegeeza amawulire ago nti, “Ova wa?” N’addamu nti, “Ndi mwana wa munnaggwanga, Omwameleki.”
14 And he said to him David how? not were you afraid to stretch out hand your to destroy [the] [one] anointed of Yahweh.
Dawudi n’amugamba nti, “Lwaki tewatya kuzikiriza omuntu Mukama gwe yafukako amafuta?”
15 And he called David to one from the young men and he said draw near fall on him and he struck down him and he died.
Awo Dawudi n’ayita omu ku basajja be, n’amugamba nti, “Mutte.” N’amufumita n’amutta.
16 And he said to him David (blood your *Q(K)*) [be] on head your for own mouth your it has testified against you saying I I killed [the] [one] anointed of Yahweh.
Dawudi n’amugamba nti, “Omusaayi gwo gubeere ku mutwe gwo, kubanga akamwa ko ye mujulirwa ng’oyogera nti, ‘Nnatta oyo Mukama gwe yafukako amafuta.’”
17 And he lamented David the lamentation this on Saul and on Jonathan son his.
Dawudi n’akungubagira Sawulo ne Yonasaani mutabani we,
18 And he said to teach [the] descendants of Judah Bow here! [it is] written on [the] scroll of the Jashar.
n’alagira abantu ba Isirayiri bayigirizibwe oluyimba olw’omutego olw’okukungubaga olwawandiikibwa mu kitabo kya Yasali. Olugamba nti,
19 The beauty O Israel on high places your [is] slain how! they have fallen [the] mighty [ones].
“Ekitiibwa kyo, ayi Isirayiri, kifiiridde ku nsozi zo! Ab’amaanyi nga bagudde!
20 May not you tell in Gath may not you bear news in [the] streets of Ashkelon lest they should rejoice [the] daughters of [the] Philistines lest they should exult [the] daughters of the uncircumcised.
“Temukyogeranga mu Gaasi, temukyatuliranga mu nguudo za Asukulooni, abawala b’Abafirisuuti baleme okusanyuka, abawala b’abatali bakomole baleme okujaguza.
21 O mountains in Gilboa may not dew and may not rain [be] on you and fields of contributions for there it was defiled [the] shield of [the] mighty [ones] [the] shield of Saul not [was] anointed with oil.
“Mmwe ensozi za Girubowa, muleme okugwibwako omusulo newaakubadde enkuba, newaakubadde ennimiro okumeramu ensigo. Kubanga eyo engabo ey’ab’amaanyi gye yanyoomerwa n’engabo ya Sawulo, gye yafuukira ng’etafukibwangako mafuta.
22 From [the] blood of [those] slain from [the] fat of [the] mighty [ones] [the] bow of Jonathan not it turned back backwards and [the] sword of Saul not it returned empty.
Omutego gwa Yonasaani tegwaddanga mabega n’ekitala kya Sawulo tekyaddanga nga kikalu, olw’okubuna omusaayi gw’abattibwanga, n’amasavu g’ab’amaanyi.
23 Saul and Jonathan lovable and pleasant in lives their and in death their not they were separated more than eagles they were swift more than lions they were strong.
“Sawulo ne Yonasaani, mu bulamu bwabwe baali baagalwa nnyo era baali baakisa, ne mu kufa tebaayawukana. Baali bangu okusinga empungu, era baali b’amaanyi n’okusinga empologoma.
24 O daughters of Israel because of Saul weep who clothed you scarlet with luxuries who brought up ornament[s] of gold on clothing your.
“Mmwe abawala ba Isirayiri, mukaabire Sawulo, eyabambaza engoye ezinekaaneka ez’okwesiima, eyabambaza ebyambalo ebyatonebwa ne zaabu.
25 How! they have fallen [the] mighty [ones] in [the] middle of the battle Jonathan on high places your [is] slain.
“Ab’amaanyi nga bagudde wakati mu lutalo! Yonasaani attiddwa ku nsozi zammwe.
26 It is distress to me on you O brother my Jonathan you were pleasant to me very it was wonderful love your to me more than [the] love of women.
Nnumwa nnyo ku lwa muganda wange Yonasaani, kubanga wali mukwano gwange ddala. Okwagala kwe wanjagala kwali kwa kitalo, nga kwa kitalo n’okusinga okw’abakyala.
27 How! they have fallen [the] mighty [ones] and they have perished [the] weapons of war.
“Ab’amaanyi nga bagudde, n’ebyokulwanyisa nga bizikiridde!”
