2 Samuel 19
1 And it was told to Joab here! the king [is] weeping and he mourned on Absalom.
Yoabu akaambiwa, “Mfalme analia na kumwombolezea Absalomu.”
2 And it became the deliverance on the day that mourning for all the people for it heard the people on the day that saying he is grieved the king on son his.
Kwa jeshi lote, ushindi wa siku ile ukageuka kuwa maombolezo, kwa sababu siku ile vikosi vilisikia ikisemwa, “Mfalme anahuzunika kwa ajili ya mwanawe.”
3 And it acted stealthily the people on the day that to enter the city just as it acts stealthily people who are ashamed when flee they in battle.
Siku ile watu wakaingia mjini kimya kama vile waingiavyo kwa aibu watu waliokimbia kutoka vitani.
4 And the king he covered face his and he cried out the king a voice great O son my Absalom Absalom son my son my.
Mfalme akafunika uso wake akalia kwa sauti, akisema, “Ee mwanangu Absalomu! Ee Absalomu, mwanangu, mwanangu!”
5 And he went Joab to the king the house and he said you have put to shame this day [the] faces of all servants your who rescued life your this day and [the] life of sons your and daughters your and [the] life of wives your and [the] life of concubines your.
Kisha Yoabu akaingia ndani ya nyumba ya mfalme na kusema, “Leo umewaaibisha watu wako wote, waliookoa maisha yako, maisha ya wanao na binti zako, maisha ya wake zako na masuria wako.
6 By loving [those who] hate you and by hating [those who] love you that - you have made known this day that not [are] to you commanders and servants that - I know this day that (if *Q(K)*) Absalom [were] alive and all of us this day [were] dead that then [it would be] right in view your.
Unawapenda wale wanaokuchukia, na unawachukia wale wanaokupenda. Leo umeonyesha wazi kwamba majemadari wako na watu wao hawana maana kwako. Naona kwamba ungefurahi kama Absalomu angekuwa hai leo na sisi sote tuwe tumekufa.
7 And therefore arise go out and speak to [the] heart of servants your for by Yahweh I swear that not you [are] coming out if he will lodge a man with you this night and it will be bad for you this more than all the harm which it has come on you since youth your until now.
Sasa utoke nje ukawatie moyo watu wako. Naapa kwa Bwana kwamba ikiwa hutatoka nje, hakuna mtu atakayesalia pamoja nawe ifikapo leo jioni. Hii itakuwa mbaya zaidi kwako kuliko maafa yote yaliyokupata tangu ujana wako hadi sasa.”
8 And he arose the king and he sat in the gate and to all the people people told saying here! the king [is] sitting in the gate and it came all the people before the king and Israel it had fled each to tents his.
Kwa hiyo mfalme akaondoka akaketi kitini pake penye lango. Watu walipoambiwa, “Mfalme ameketi langoni,” watu wote wakamjia. Wakati huo, Waisraeli walikuwa wamekimbilia nyumbani kwao.
9 And it was all the people quarrelling in all [the] tribes of Israel saying the king he delivered us - from [the] hand of enemies our and he he rescued us from [the] hand of [the] Philistines and now he has fled from the land from with Absalom.
Katika makabila yote ya Israeli, watu walikuwa wanabishana wao kwa wao, wakisema, “Mfalme alituokoa kutoka mikononi mwa adui zetu; ndiye alituokoa kutoka mikononi mwa Wafilisti. Lakini sasa mfalme ameikimbia nchi kwa sababu ya Absalomu,
10 And Absalom whom we anointed over us he has died in the battle and therefore why? [are] you keeping silent to bring back the king.
naye Absalomu, tuliyemtia mafuta atutawale, amekufa vitani. Basi mbona hamsemi lolote kuhusu kumrudisha mfalme?”
11 And the king David he sent to Zadok and to Abiathar the priests saying speak to [the] elders of Judah saying why? will you be [the] last [people] to bring back the king to house his and [the] word of all Israel it had come to the king to house his.
Mfalme Daudi akapeleka ujumbe huu kwa makuhani Sadoki na Abiathari, kusema: “Waulizeni wazee wa Yuda, ‘Kwa nini mwe wa mwisho kumrudisha mfalme katika jumba lake la kifalme, maadamu kile kinachosemwa katika Israeli yote kimemfikia mfalme katika makao yake?
12 [are] brothers My you [are] bone my and flesh my you and why? will you be [the] last [people] to bring back the king.
Ninyi ni ndugu zangu, nyama yangu na damu yangu mwenyewe. Kwa hiyo kwa nini mwe wa mwisho kumrudisha mfalme?’
13 And to Amasa you will say ¿ not bone my and flesh my [are] you thus may he do to me God and thus may he add if not commander of [the] army you will be before me all the days in place of Joab.
Nanyi mwambieni Amasa, ‘Je, wewe si nyama yangu mwenyewe na damu yangu? Mungu na anishughulikie, tena kwa ukali, kama kuanzia sasa na kuendelea wewe si jemadari wa jeshi langu mahali pa Yoabu.’”
14 And he turned [the] heart of every man of Judah like a man one and they sent to the king return you and all servants your.
Aliipata mioyo ya watu wote wa Yuda kama vile walikuwa mtu mmoja. Wakapeleka ujumbe kwa mfalme, kusema, “Rudi, wewe na watu wako wote.”
15 And he returned the king and he came to the Jordan and Judah it came Gilgal towards to go to meet the king to bring over the king the Jordan.
Ndipo mfalme akarudi, akaenda hadi kufikia Mto Yordani. Basi watu wa Yuda walikuwa wamekuja mpaka Gilgali ili kutoka kwenda kumlaki mfalme na kumvusha Mto Yordani.
16 And he hurried Shimei [the] son of Gera [the] Ben-jaminite who [was] from Bahurim and he came down with [the] man of Judah to meet the king David.
Shimei mwana wa Gera, wa kabila la Benyamini kutoka Bahurimu, akaharakisha kuteremka pamoja na watu wa Yuda ili kumlaki Mfalme Daudi.
17 And one thousand man [were] with him of Benjamin and Ziba [the] servant of [the] house of Saul and five teen sons his and twenty servants his [were] with him and they rushed ahead the Jordan before the king.
Pamoja naye walikuwepo Wabenyamini elfu moja wakiwa wamefuatana na Siba, msimamizi wa nyumba ya Sauli, pia wanawe kumi na watano, na watumishi ishirini. Wakaharakisha kwenda Yordani, mahali mfalme alipokuwa.
18 And it passed over the ford to bring over [the] household of the king and to do the good (in eyes his *Q(K)*) and Shimei [the] son of Gera he fell before the king when passed he in the Jordan.
Wakavuka kivuko ili kuwachukua watu wa nyumbani mwa mfalme ili kuwavusha na kufanya kila kitu alichotaka. Shimei mwana wa Gera alipovuka Yordani, akaanguka kifudifudi mbele ya mfalme,
19 And he said to the king may not he reckon to me lord my guilt and may not you remember [that] which he did perversely servant your on the day when he went out lord my the king from Jerusalem to put [it] the king to heart his.
na kumwambia, “Bwana wangu na asinihesabie hatia. Usikumbuke jinsi mtumishi wako alivyofanya kosa siku ile bwana wangu mfalme alipoondoka Yerusalemu. Mfalme aliondoe moyoni mwake.
20 For he knows servant your that I I have sinned and here! I have come this day first of all [the] house of Joseph to come down to meet lord my the king.
Kwa maana mimi mtumishi wako najua nimefanya dhambi, lakini leo nimekuja hapa kama wa kwanza wa nyumba yote ya Yosefu kushuka na kumlaki bwana wangu mfalme.”
21 And he answered Abishai [the] son of Zeruiah and he said ¿ in place of this not will he be put to death Shimei for he cursed [the] [one] anointed of Yahweh.
Ndipo Abishai mwana wa Seruya akasema, “Je, Shimei hapaswi kuuawa kwa ajili ya hili? Alimlaani mpakwa mafuta wa Bwana.”
22 And he said David what? [is] to me and to you O sons of Zeruiah that you will become to me this day an adversary this day will he be put to death? anyone in Israel for ¿ not do I know that this day I [am] king over Israel.
Daudi akajibu, “Mimi nina nini nanyi, enyi wana wa Seruya? Leo hii mmekuwa adui zangu! Je, leo kuna yeyote atakayeuawa katika Israeli? Je, mimi sijui kuwa leo ndimi mfalme katika Israeli yote?”
23 And he said the king to Shimei not you will die and he swore an oath to him the king.
Basi mfalme akamwambia Shimei, “Hutakufa.” Naye mfalme akamwahidi kwa kiapo.
24 And Mephibosheth [the] son of Saul he went down to meet the king and not he had done feet his and not he had done moustache his and clothes his not he had washed from the day went the king until the day when he came in peace.
Pia Mefiboshethi mwana wa Sauli akashuka kwenda kumlaki mfalme. Hakuwa amenawa miguu wala kunyoa ndevu zake wala kufua nguo zake tangu siku mfalme alipoondoka Yerusalemu mpaka siku aliporudi ile salama.
25 And it was that he came Jerusalem to meet the king and he said to him the king why? not did you go with me O Mephibosheth.
Wakati alipotoka Yerusalemu kuja kumlaki mfalme, mfalme akamuuliza, “Mefiboshethi, kwa nini hukufuatana nami?”
26 And he said O lord my the king servant my he betrayed me for he said servant your let me saddle for myself the donkey so I may ride on it so I may go with the king for [is] lame servant your.
Akasema, “Bwana wangu mfalme, maadamu mimi mtumishi wako ni kiwete, nilisema, ‘Nitandikiwe punda wangu, nimpande, ili niweze kwenda pamoja na mfalme.’ Lakini Siba mtumishi wangu akanisaliti.
27 And he has slandered servant your to lord my the king and lord my the king [is] like [the] angel of God and do the good in view your.
Naye amemchongea mtumishi wako kwa bwana wangu mfalme. Bwana wangu mfalme ni kama malaika wa Mungu, kwa hiyo fanya lolote linalokupendeza.
28 For not it was all [the] house of father my that except men of death to lord my the king and you put servant your among [those who] eat table your and what? [is] there for me still righteousness and to cry out still to the king.
Wazao wote wa baba yangu hawastahili kitu kingine isipokuwa kifo kutoka kwa bwana wangu mfalme, lakini ulimpa mtumishi wako nafasi miongoni mwa wale waliokula mezani pako. Je, ninayo haki gani kumwomba mfalme zaidi ya hayo?”
29 And he said to him the king why? are you speaking still words your I say you and Ziba you will divide the field.
Mfalme akamwambia, “Kwa nini useme zaidi? Naamuru wewe na Siba mgawanye mashamba.”
30 And he said Mephibosheth to the king also everything let him take after that he has come lord my the king in peace to house his.
Mefiboshethi akamwambia mfalme, “Mruhusu achukue kila kitu, kwa kuwa sasa bwana wangu mfalme amerudi nyumbani salama.”
31 And Barzillai the Gileadite he had come down from Rogelim and he passed over with the king the Jordan to send off him (the Jordan. *Q(K)*)
Barzilai, Mgileadi, pia akashuka kutoka Rogelimu ili kuvuka Yordani pamoja na mfalme na kumsindikiza kutoka huko.
32 And Barzillai he was old very a son of eighty year[s] and he he had supplied the king (in dwelling his *LA(bh)*) in Mahanaim for [was] a man great he very.
Basi Barzilai alikuwa mzee sana mwenye umri wa miaka themanini. Alikuwa amempatia mfalme mahitaji wakati alipokuwa anaishi huko Mahanaimu, kwa kuwa alikuwa mtu tajiri sana.
33 And he said the king to Barzillai you pass over with me and I will supply you with me in Jerusalem.
Mfalme akamwambia Barzilai, “Vuka pamoja nami na ukae nami huko Yerusalemu, nami nitakupatia mahitaji yako.”
34 And he said Barzillai to the king how many? [are] [the] days of [the] years of life my that I will go up with the king Jerusalem.
Lakini Barzilai akamjibu mfalme, “Je, nitaishi miaka mingine mingapi, hata nipande kwenda Yerusalemu pamoja na mfalme?
35 [am] a son of Eighty year[s] I this day ¿ do I know - between good and evil or? will he taste servant your [that] which I will eat and [that] which I will drink or? will I hear still [the] voice of [male] singers and female singers and why? will he become servant your still a burden to lord my the king.
Sasa nina miaka themanini. Je, naweza kutofautisha kati ya lililo jema na lililo baya? Je, mtumishi wako anaweza kujua ladha ya kile anachokula au anachokunywa? Je, bado naweza kusikiliza sauti za waimbaji wa kiume na za wanawake? Kwa nini mtumishi wako aongeze mzigo kwa bwana wangu mfalme?
36 Like a little he will pass over servant your the Jordan with the king and why? will he reward me the king the reward this.
Mtumishi wako atavuka Yordani pamoja na mfalme kwa umbali mfupi tu, lakini kwa nini mfalme anizawadie kwa namna hii?
37 Let him return please servant your so I may die in own city my near [the] grave of father my and mother my and here! - servant your Kimham let him pass over with lord my the king and do for him [that] which it is good in view your.
Mruhusu mtumishi wako arudi, ili mimi nikafie katika mji wangu mwenyewe karibu na kaburi la baba yangu na mama yangu. Lakini yupo hapa mtumishi wako Kimhamu. Mruhusu avuke pamoja na bwana wangu mfalme. Mtendee lolote linalokupendeza.”
38 And he said the king with me he will pass over Kimham and I I will do for him the good in view your and all that you will choose on me I will do for you.
Mfalme akamwambia Barzilai, “Kimhamu atavuka Yordani pamoja nami, nami nitamtendea lolote litakalokupendeza. Nawe kitu chochote unachotaka kutoka kwangu nitakutendea.”
39 And it passed over all the people the Jordan and the king he passed over and he kissed the king Barzillai and he blessed him and he returned to own place his.
Kwa hiyo watu wote wakavuka Yordani, kisha mfalme akavuka. Mfalme akambusu Barzilai na kumbariki; Barzilai akarudi nyumbani kwake.
40 And he passed over the king Gilgal towards and Kimhan he passed over with him and all [the] people of Judah (they brought over *Q(K)*) the king and also half of [the] people of Israel.
Mfalme alipovuka kwenda Gilgali, Kimhamu akavuka pamoja naye. Vikosi vyote vya Yuda na nusu ya vikosi vya Israeli vilimvusha mfalme.
41 And there! every man of Israel [were] coming to the king and they said to the king why? did they steal you brothers our [the] man of Judah and they brought over the king and household his the Jordan and all [the] men of David with him.
Baada ya kitambo kidogo watu wote wa Israeli wakaja kwa mfalme na kumwambia, “Kwa nini ndugu zetu, watu wa Yuda, wamemrudisha mfalme kwa siri bila kutushirikisha, na kumvusha ngʼambo ya Yordani, yeye na nyumba yake, pamoja na watu wake wote?”
42 And he answered every man of Judah to [the] man of Israel for [is] close the king to me and why? this has it burned to you on the matter this ¿ really have we eaten from the king or? really has it been taken away by us.
Watu wote wa Yuda wakawajibu watu wa Israeli, “Tulifanya hivi kwa sababu mfalme ni jamaa yetu wa karibu. Kwa nini mnakasirikia jambo hili? Je, tumekula kitu chochote cha mfalme? Je, tumejichukulia kitu chochote kwa ajili yetu wenyewe?”
43 And he answered [the] man of Israel [the] man of Judah and he said ten hands [belong] to me in the king and also in David I more than you and why? did you treat with contempt me and not was it word my first of me to bring back king my and it was hard [the] word of [the] man of Judah more than [the] word of [the] man of Israel.
Ndipo watu wa Israeli wakawajibu watu wa Yuda, “Tunayo haki mara kumi kwa mfalme; sisi tunahusika zaidi na Daudi kuliko ninyi. Kwa nini basi mnatudharau? Je, hatukuwa wa kwanza kuzungumza kuhusu kumrudisha mfalme nyumbani?” Lakini watu wa Yuda wakajibu kwa ukali hata zaidi kuliko watu wa Israeli.
