2 Samuel 20
1 And there he was met a man of worthlessness and name his [was] Sheba [the] son of Bicri a man a Jaminite and he gave a blast on the trumpet and he said not [belongs] to us a portion in David and not an inheritance [belongs] to us in [the] son of Jesse everyone to tents his O Israel.
Ndipo munthu wina wokonda kuyambitsa chisokonezo, dzina lake Seba, mwana wa Bikiri wa fuko la Benjamini, anali komweko. Iye analiza lipenga ndipo anafuwula kuti, “Ife tilibe chathu mu mfumu wa Davide, tilibe gawo mwa mwana wa Yese! Inu Aisraeli aliyense apite ku nyumba kwake!”
2 And he went up every man of Israel from after David after Sheba [the] son of Bicri and [the] man of Judah they clung to king their from the Jordan and to Jerusalem.
Kotero Aisraeli onse anamuthawa Davide ndipo anatsatira Seba mwana wa Bikiri. Koma anthu a ku Yuda anakhala ndi mfumu yawo njira yonse kuchokera ku Yorodani mpaka ku Yerusalemu.
3 And he came David to house his Jerusalem and he took the king [the] ten women - concubines whom he had left to keep the house and he put them a house of confinement and he sustained them and into them not he went and they were locked up until [the] day died they widowhood of living.
Davide atabwerera ku nyumba yake yaufumu ku Yerusalemu, iye anatenga azikazi khumi aja amene anawasiya kuti aziyangʼanira nyumba yaufumu, ndipo anawayika mʼnyumba imene anayikapo mlonda. Iye ankawadyetsa koma sanagone nawonso. Anasungidwa kwa okha mpaka tsiku la kufa kwawo ndipo anakhala ngati akazi amasiye.
4 And he said the king to Amasa summon to me [the] man of Judah three days and you here stand.
Kenaka mfumu inati kwa Amasa, “Itanitsa ankhondo a Yuda kuti abwere kwa ine pasanathe masiku atatu, ndipo iwe udzakhale nawo.”
5 And he went Amasa to summon Judah (and he was delayed *Q(K)*) from the appointed time which he had appointed for him.
Motero Amasa anakayitana Ayuda, koma anachedwa, napitirira pa nthawi imene mfumu inamuyikira.
6 And he said David to Abishai now he will be bad for us Sheba [the] son of Bicri more than Absalom you take [the] servants of master your and pursue after him lest he has found for himself cities fortified and he will tear out eye our.
Davide anati kwa Abisai, “Tsono Seba mwana wa Bikiri adzatipweteka kuposa momwe Abisalomu anatichitira. Tenga asilikali a mbuye wako ndipo umuthamangitse, mwina adzapeza mizinda yotetezedwa ndi kutithawa ife.”
7 And they went out after him [the] men of Joab and the Kerethite[s] and the Pelethite[s] and all the warriors and they went out from Jerusalem to pursue after Sheba [the] son of Bicri.
Kotero anthu a Yowabu, Akereti ndi Apeleti ndiponso asilikali onse amphamvu anapita motsogozedwa ndi Abisai. Iwo anayenda kuchokera ku Yerusalemu kuthamangitsa Seba mwana wa Bikiri.
8 They [were] near the stone great which [is] in Gibeon and Amasa he came before them and Joab [was] girded - robe his clothing his (and over it *Q(k)*) a belt of a sword [was] fastened on loins his in sheath its and he he went forward and it fell.
Ali pa mwala waukulu wa ku Gibiyoni, Amasa anabwera kudzakumana nawo. Yowabu anali atavala chovala chausilikali ndipo pamwamba pa malayawo, mʼchiwuno mwake anavala lamba womangirirapo lupanga lili moyikamo mwakemo. Akuyenda linasololoka kuchoka moyikamo mwake.
9 And he said Joab to Amasa ¿ peace [are] you O brother my and it took hold [the] hand of [the] right of Joab on [the] beard of Amasa to kiss him.
Yowabu anati kwa Amasa, “Kodi uli bwanji mʼbale wanga?” Kenaka Yowabu anamugwira ndevu Amasa uja ndi dzanja lake lamanja ndi kupsompsona.
10 And Amasa not he took heed to the sword - which [was] in [the] hand of Joab and he struck him with it into the belly and he poured out bowels his [the] ground towards and not he repeated to him and he died. And Joab and Abishai brother his he pursued after Sheba [the] son of Bicri.
Amasa sanayangʼanitsitse lupanga limene linali mʼdzanja la Yowabu, ndipo Yowabu anamubaya nalo mʼmimba ndipo matumbo ake anatuluka ndi kugwera pansi. Popanda kubayanso kachiwiri, Amasa anafa. Ndipo Yowabu ndi mʼbale wake Abisai anathamangitsa Seba mwana wa Bikiri.
11 And a man he stood over him one of [the] young men of Joab and he said who? [is [the] one] who he delights in Joab and who? [is [the] one] who [belongs] to David after Joab.
Mmodzi mwa ankhondo a Yowabu anakayimirira pafupi ndi mtembo wa Amasa ndipo anati, “Aliyense amene amakonda Yowabu ndi aliyense amene ali wa Davide, atsatire Yowabu!”
12 And Amasa [was] wallowing in blood in [the] middle of (the highway *LA(bh)*) and he saw the man that it stopped all the people and he brought round Amasa from the highway the field and he threw over him a garment when he saw all who came on him and he stopped.
Amasa anagona pakati pa msewu atasamba magazi ake, ndipo munthuyo anaona kuti asilikali onse amayima pamenepo. Atazindikira kuti aliyense amene ankafika pamene panali Amasa amayima, iye anamuchotsa mu msewu ndi kumukokera mʼmunda ndipo anamuphimba ndi nsalu.
13 When he had removed [him] from the highway he passed by every person after Joab to pursue after Sheba [the] son of Bicri.
Amasa atachotsedwa pa msewu anthu onse anapita ndi Yowabu kuthamangitsa Seba mwana wa Bikiri.
14 And he passed in all [the] tribes of Israel Abel towards and Beth Maacah and all the Berites. (And they assembled *Q(K)*) and they went also after him.
Seba anadutsa mafuko onse a Israeli mpaka ku Abeli ndi Beti-Maaka ndiponso chigawo chonse cha Abeli, amene anasonkhana pamodzi ndi kumutsata iye.
15 And they came and they laid siege on him in Abel Beth Maacah and they poured out a mound against the city and it stood by the rampart and all the people which [was] with Joab [were] about to destroy to make fall the wall.
Ankhondo onse pamodzi ndi Yowabu anafika ndi kumuzungulira Seba mu Abeli-Beti-Maaka. Iwo anapanga mzere wa nkhondo mpaka ku mzinda, ndipo unayangʼanana ndi malo otetezera a kunja. Pamene amalimbana ndi khoma kuti aligwetse,
16 And she called out a woman wise from the city listen listen say please to Joab draw near to here so let me speak to you.
mayi wina wanzeru anafuwula kuchokera mu mzindawo, “Tamverani! Tamverani! Muwuzeni Yowabu abwere pano kuti ndiyankhule naye.”
17 And he drew near to her and she said the woman ¿ [are] you Joab and he said I [am] and she said to him listen to [the] words of maidservant your and he said [am] listening I.
Yowabu anayandikira kumene kunali mayiyo, ndipo iye anafunsa kuti, “Kodi ndinu Yowabu?” Iye anayankha kuti, “Ndine.” Mayiyo anati, “Tamverani zimene mtumiki wanu akuti anene.” Yowabu anayankha kuti, “Ndikumvetsera.”
18 And she said saying surely they spoke at the former [time] saying certainly they will ask at Abel and thus they ceased.
Iye anapitiriza kunena kuti, “Kalekale ankanena kuti, ‘Kapeze yankho lako ku Abeli,’ ndipo nkhani imathera pamenepo.
19 I [am] [the] peaceful [ones] of [the] faithful [ones] of Israel you [are] seeking to kill a city and a mother in Israel why? will you swallow up [the] inheritance of Yahweh.
Ife ndife anthu a mtendere ndi okhulupirika mu Israeli. Inu mukufuna kuwononga mzinda umene ndi mayi mu Israeli. Nʼchifukwa chiyani mukufuna kufafaniza cholowa cha Yehova?”
20 And he answered Joab and he said far be it far be it to me if I will swallow up and if I will destroy.
Yowabu anayankha kuti, “Ayi ndisatero. Ine sindikufuna kuwufafaniza kapena kuwuwononga.
21 [is] not So the matter for a man from [the] hill country of Ephraim [who is] Sheba [the] son of Bicri name his he has lifted up hand his against the king against David give him to only him so let me go from on the city and she said the woman to Joab here! head his [is] about to be thrown to you behind the wall.
Nkhani simeneyo ayi. Koma munthu wina wa ku dziko lamapiri la Efereimu, dzina lake Seba mwana wa Bikiri, wawukira mfumu Davide. Muperekeni munthuyo ndipo ine ndidzachoka pa mzinda uno.” Mayiyo anati kwa Yowabu, “Mutu wake tikuponyerani pa khoma pano.”
22 And she went the woman to all the people with wisdom her and they cut off [the] head of Sheba [the] son of Bicri and they threw [it] to Joab and he gave a blast on the trumpet and they were scattered from on the city each to tents his and Joab he returned Jerusalem to the king.
Ndipo mayiyo anapita kwa anthu onse ndi malangizo ake anzeru, ndipo anadula mutu wa Seba mwana wa Bikiri ndipo anawuponya kwa Yowabu. Kotero iye analiza lipenga ndipo anthu ake anachoka pa mzindawo, aliyense nʼkubwerera kwawo. Ndipo Yowabu anabwerera kwa mfumu ku Yerusalemu.
23 And Joab [was] to all the army of Israel and Benaiah [the] son of Jehoiada [was] over (the Kerethite[s] *Q(K)*) and over the Pelethite[s].
Yowabu ndiye amalamulira gulu lonse la ankhondo. Benaya mwana wa Yehoyada amalamulira Akereti ndi Apeleti.
24 And Adoram [was] over the forced labor and Jehoshaphat [the] son of Ahilud [was] the recorder.
Adoramu amayangʼanira anthu ogwira ntchito ya thangata, Yehosafati mwana wa Ahiludi anali mlembi wa zochitika,
25 (And Sheva *Q(K)*) [was] secretary and Zadok and Abiathar [were] priests.
Seva anali mlembi wa mfumu. Zadoki ndi Abiatara anali ansembe
26 And also Ira the Jairite he was a priest of David.
ndipo Ira wa ku Yairi anali wansembe wa Davide.
