2 Samuel 14
1 Forsothe Joab, the sone of Saruye, vndirstood, that the herte of the kyng was turned to Absolon;
Yowabu mwana wa Zeruya anadziwa kuti maganizo a mfumu ali pa Abisalomu.
2 and he sente to Thecua, and took fro thennus a wise womman, and he seide to hir, Feyne thee to morene, and be thou clothid with clooth of duyl, and be thou anoyntid with oile, that thou be as a womman by morenynge `now in ful myche tyme a deed man.
Kotero Yowabu anatuma munthu wina kupita ku Tekowa ndi kukatengako mkazi wanzeru. Yowabu anati kwa mkaziyo, “Ukhale ngati namfedwa. Uvale zovala zaumasiye ndipo usadzole mafuta ena aliwonse. Ukhale ngati mkazi amene wakhala akulira masiku ambiri.
3 And thou schalt entre to the kyng, and thou schalt speke to hym siche wordis. Sotheli Joab puttide the wordis in hir mouth.
Kenaka upite kwa mfumu ndipo ukayankhule mawu awa.” Ndipo Yowabu anamuwuza mawu oti akanene.
4 Therfor whanne the womman of Thecua hadde entrid to the kyng, sche felde bifor hym on the erthe, and worschipide, and seide, A! kyng, kepe me.
Mkazi wochokera ku Tekowa uja atapita kwa mfumu anadzigwetsa pansi, napereka ulemu kwa mfumu nati, “Thandizeni mfumu!”
5 And the kyng seide to hir, What hast thou of cause? And sche answeride, Alas! Y am a womman widewe, for myn hosebonde is deed;
Mfumu inamufunsa kuti, “Kodi chikukusautsa iwe nʼchiyani?” Iye anayankha kuti, “Ine ndine mkazi wamasiye, mwamuna wanga anamwalira.
6 and tweyne sones weren of thin handmayde, whiche debatiden ayens hem silf in the feeld, and `noon was that myyte forbede hem, and oon smoot `the tother, and killide hym.
Ine wantchito wanu ndinali ndi ana aamuna awiri. Iwo anayamba kumenyana mʼmunda, ndipo panalibe woti awaleretse. Wina anakantha mnzakeyo mpaka kumupha.
7 And lo! al the kynrede risith ayens thin handmayde, and seith, Yyue thou hym that killide his brothir, that we sle hym for the lijf of his brother whom he killide, and that we do awei the eir; and thei seken to quenche my sparcle whych is lefte, that name dwelle not to myn hosebonde, and relikis, `ethir remenauntis, be not to him on erthe.
Tsono banja lonse landiwukira ine, wantchito wanu. Iwo akuti, ‘Utipatse mwana amene anakantha mʼbale wakeyo kuti timuphe chifukwa cha moyo wa mʼbale wake amene anaphedwayo. Ife tidzaphanso mlowamʼmalo.’ Anthuwo adzapha mwana wanga amene wanditsalira, ndipo dzina la mwamuna wanga silidzakumbukika pakuti sipadzakhalanso mwana pa banja lathu.”
8 And the kyng seide to the womman, Go in to thin hows, and Y schal comaunde for thee.
Mfumu inati kwa mkaziyo, “Pitani ku nyumba kwanu ndipo ine ndidzalamula mʼmalo mwanu.”
9 And the womman of Thecua seide to the kyng, My lord the kyng, this wickidnesse be on me, and on the hows of my fadir; forsothe the kyng and his trone be innocent.
Koma mkazi wochokera ku Tekowayo anati kwa mfumu, “Mbuye wanga mfumu, kulakwa kukhale pa ine ndi banja la abambo anga ndipo mfumu ndi mpando wanu waufumu mukhale osalakwa.”
10 And the kyng seide, Brynge thou hym to me, that ayenseith thee, and he schal no more adde that he touche thee.
Mfumu inayankha kuti, “Ngati wina aliyense anene kanthu kwa iwe, umubweretse kwa ine, ndipo sadzakuvutitsanso.”
11 And sche seide, The kyng haue mynde on his Lord God, and the nexte men of blood to take veniaunce be not multiplied, and `thei schulen not sle my sone. And the kyng seide, The Lord lyueth, for noon of the heeris of thi sone schal falle on the erthe.
Mkaziyo anati, “Mfumu ipemphe kwa Yehova Mulungu wake kuti aletse wobwezera imfa asaphenso wina kuti mwana wanga asawonongedwe.” Mfumu inati, “Pali Yehova wamoyo ngakhale tsitsi limodzi la pamutu pa mwana wako silidzathotholedwa.”
12 Therfor the womman seide, Thin handmayde speke a word to my lord the kyng. And the kyng seide, Speke thou.
Kenaka mkaziyo anati, “Lolani kuti wantchito wanu ayankhule mawu kwa inu mbuye wanga mfumu.” Iye anayankha kuti, “Yankhula.”
13 And the womman seide, Whi `thouytist thou sich a thing ayens the puple of God? and the kyng spak this word, that he do synne, and brynge not ayen his sone cast out?
Mkaziyo anati, “Nʼchiyani tsono chimene mwaganiza kuchitira zimenezi anthu a Mulungu? Pamene mfumu yanena izi, kodi sikudzitsutsa yokha, pakuti mfumu sinayitanitse mwana amene anamupirikitsa?
14 Alle we dyen, and as watris that schulen not turne ayen, we sliden in to erthe; and God nyl that a soule perische, but he withdrawith, and thenkith lest he perische outirly, which is cast awey.
Koma poti madzi akatayika sawoleka, ndiye tonsefe tiyenera kufa ndithu. Koma Mulungu safuna kuti moyo wa munthu utayike kotero anakonza njira yakuti wopirikitsidwayo asakhale wotayikiratu.
15 Now therfor come thou, that Y speke to my lord the kyng this word, while the puple is present; and thin handmaide seide, Y schal speke to the kyng, if in ony maner the kyng do the word of his handmayde.
“Tsopano ine ndabwera kudzanena izi kwa inu mbuye wanga mfumu chifukwa anthu andichititsa mantha. Mdzakazi wanu anaganiza kuti, ‘Ndikayankhula kwa mfumu, mwina adzachita zimene mdzakazi wake adzamupempha.
16 And the kyng herde the wordis, that he schulde delyuere his handmayde fro the hondis of alle men, that wolden do awei me, and my sone to gidere, fro the eritage of the Lord.
Mwina mfumu idzavomereza kupulumutsa mdzakazi wake mʼdzanja la munthu amene akufuna kupha ine pamodzi ndi mwana wanga kutichotsa pa cholowa chimene Mulungu anatipatsa.’
17 Therfor thin hand mayde seie, that the word of my lord the kyng be maad as sacrifice, `that is, that the sentence youun of hym be plesaunt to God, as sacrifice plesith God; for as an aungel of the Lord, so is my lord the kyng, that he be not mouyd bi blessyng nether bi cursyng. Wherfor and thi Lord God is with thee.
“Ndipo tsopano mtumiki wanu akuti, ‘Lolani mawu a mbuye wanga mfumu abweretse mpumulo kwa ine, pakuti mbuye wanga mfumu ali ngati mngelo wa Mulungu pozindikira chabwino ndi choyipa. Yehova Mulungu wanu akhale nanu.’”
18 And the kyng answeride, and seide to the womman, Hide thou not fro me the word which Y axe thee. And the womman seide to hym, Speke thou, my lord the kyng.
Kenaka mfumu inati kwa mkaziyo, “Usandibisire chilichonse pondiyankha chimene ndidzakufunsa.” Mkaziyo anati, “Mbuye wanga mfumu yankhulani.”
19 And the kyng seide, Whether the hond of Joab is with thee in alle these thingis? The womman answeride, and seide, Bi the helthe of thi soule, my lord the kyng, nether to the left side nether to the riyt side is ony thing of alle these thingis, whiche my lord the kyng spak. For thi seruaunt Joab hym silf comaundide to me, and he puttide alle these wordis in to the mouth of thin handmaide,
Mfumu inafunsa kuti, “Kodi zimenezi sukuchita motsogozedwa ndi Yowabu?” Mkaziyo anayankha kuti, “Pali inu wamoyo, mbuye wanga mfumu, palibe munthu angakhotere kumanja kapena kumanzere pa chilichonse chimene mbuye wanga mfumu mwanena. Inde, ndi mtumiki wanu Yowabu amene wandilangiza ine kuchita zimenezi ndipo ndi amene anandipatsa mawu onsewa woti ine mtumiki wanu ndiyankhule.
20 that Y schulde turne the figure of this word; for thi seruaunt Joab comaundide this thing. Forsothe thou, my lord the kyng, art wijs, as an aungel of God hath wisdom, that thou vnderstonde alle thingis on erthe.
Mtumiki wanu Yowabu anachita zimenezi kuti asinthe mmene zinthu zilili lero. Mbuye wanga muli ndi nzeru ngati za mngelo wa Mulungu. Mumadziwa zonse zimene zikuchitika mʼdziko.”
21 And the kyng seide to Joab, Lo! Y am plesid, and Y haue do thi word; therfor go thou, and ayen clepe thou the child Absolon.
Mfumu inati kwa Yowabu, “Chabwino, ine ndichita zimenezi. Pita kamutenge Abisalomuyo.”
22 And Joab felde on his face to erthe, and worschipide, and blesside the kyng; and Joab seide, Thi seruaunt hath vndirstonde to dai, that Y foond grace in thin iyen, my lord the kyng, for thou hast do the word of thi seruaunt.
Yowabu anawerama pansi kupereka ulemu kwa mfumu. Yowabuyo anati, “Lero mtumiki wanu wadziwa kuti wapeza chifundo pamaso panu, mbuye wanga mfumu, chifukwa mwavomera pempho lakeli.”
23 Therfor Joab roos, and yede in to Gessur, and brouyte Absolon in to Jerusalem.
Choncho Yowabu anapita ku Gesuri ndipo anamubweretsa Abisalomu ku Yerusalemu.
24 Forsothe the kyng seide, Turne he ayen in to his hows, and se not he my face.
Koma mfumu inati, “Iye apite ku nyumba yake; asaone nkhope yanga.” Kotero Abisalomu anapita ku nyumba yake ndipo sanakumane ndi mfumu.
25 Therfor Absolon turnede ayen in to his hows, and siy not the face of the kyng. Sotheli no man in al Israel was so fair as Absolon, and ful comeli; fro the step of the foot `til to the top, `no wem was in hym;
Mʼdziko lonse la Israeli munalibe munthu amene anayamikidwa chifukwa cha maonekedwe ake wokongola ngati Abisalomu. Kuyambira kumutu mpaka ku mapazi ake, analibe chilema.
26 and in as myche as `he clippide more the heeris, bi so myche thei wexiden more; forsothe he was clippid onys in the yeer, for the heer greuede him. And whanne he clippide the heeris, he weiyide `the heeris of his heed bi twei hundrid siclis with comyn weiyte.
Nthawi ina iliyonse akamameta tsitsi lake, ankameta pamene layamba kumulemera. Akatero amaliyeza, ndipo limalemera makilogalamu awiri pa sikelo yaufumu.
27 Forsothe thre sones, and a douyter, Thamar bi name, of `excellent forme weren borun to Absolon.
Abisalomu anali ndi ana aamuna atatu ndi wamkazi mmodzi. Mwana wamkazi dzina lake linali Tamara, ndipo anali mkazi wokongola kwambiri.
28 And Absolon dwellide in Jerusalem twei yeer, and he siy not the face of the kyng.
Abisalomu anakhala zaka ziwiri mu Yerusalemu osaonekera kwa mfumu.
29 Therfor he sente to Joab, that he schulde sende hym to the kyng; which Joab nolde come to hym. And whanne he hadde sent the secounde tyme, and Joab nolde come,
Kenaka Abisalomu anatumiza mawu kwa Yowabu, kumutuma kuti apite kwa mfumu, koma Yowabu anakana kubwera. Kotero anatumizanso mawu kachiwiri, koma Yowabu anakananso.
30 Absolon seide to hise seruauntis, Ye knowen the feeld of Joab bisidis my feeld hauynge ripe barli; therfor go ye, and brenne ye it with fier. Therfor the seruauntis of Absolon brenten the corn with fier. And the seruauntis of Joab camen with her clothis to-rent, and seiden, The seruauntis
Tsono Abisalomu anati kwa antchito ake, “Taonani, munda wa Yowabu uli pafupi ndi wanga ndipo muli barele mʼmenemo. Pitani mukawutenthe mundawo.” Ndipo antchito a Abisalomu anawutentha mundawo.
31 of Absolon han brent the part of feeld bi fier. And Joab roos, and cam to Absolon in to his hows, and seide, Whi
Ndipo Yowabu anapita ku nyumba ya Abisalomu ndipo anati kwa iye, “Nʼchifukwa chiyani antchito ako atentha munda wanga?”
32 han thi seruauntis brent my corn bi fier? And Absolon answeride to Joab, Y sente to thee, and bisouyte that thou schuldist come to me, and that Y schulde sende thee to the kyng, that thou schuldist seie to hym, Whi cam Y fro Gessur? It was betere to me to be there; therfor Y biseche, that Y se the face of the kyng, that if he is myndeful of my wickidnesse, sle he me.
Abisalomu anati kwa Yowabu, “Taona, ine ndinatumiza mawu kwa iwe ndipo ndinati, ‘Bwera kuno kuti ndikutume kwa mfumu kukafunsa kuti, ‘Nʼchifukwa chiyani ine ndinabwera kuchokera ku Gesuri? Zikanakhala bwino ndikanakhala komweko!’ Tsono pano ndikufuna kuonana ndi mfumu, ndipo ngati ndili olakwa mfumuyo indiphe.’”
33 Joab entride to the kyng, and telde to hym. And Absolon was clepid, and entryde to the kyng, and worschipide on the face of erthe bifor hym, and the kyng kisside Absolon.
Choncho Yowabu anapita kwa mfumu ndipo anayiwuza zimenezi. Ndipo mfumu inamuyitanitsa Abisalomu, ndipo analowa nawerama kugunditsa nkhope yake pansi pamaso pa mfumu. Tsono mfumu inapsompsona Abisalomu.
