< 2 Samuel 18 >

1 Therfor Dauid, whanne the puple `was biholdun, ordeynede tribunes and centuriouns on hem.
Dhavhidhi akaunganidza varume vakanga vanaye uye akagadza pamusoro pavo vatungamiri vezviuru navatungamiri vamazana.
2 And he yaf the thridde part of the puple vndur the hond of Joab; and the thridde part vndur the hond of Abisai, sone of Saruye, brother of Joab; and the thridde part vndur the hond of Ethai, that was of Geth. And the kyng seide to the puple, Also Y schal go out with you.
Dhavhidhi akatumira varwi achiita kudai: chikamu chimwe chete kubva muzvitatu chavo chichitungamirirwa naJoabhu, chimwe chikamu chimwe chete kubva muzvitatu chichitungamirirwa nomununʼuna waJoabhu ainzi Abhishai mwanakomana waZeruya, uye chikamu chimwe chete kubva muzvitatuzve chichitungamirirwa naItai muGiti. Mambo akataurira vanhu kuti, “Zvirokwazvo neni pachangu ndichafamba nemi.”
3 And the puple answeride, Thou schalt not go out; for whether we fleen, it schal not perteyne to hem bi greet werk of vs; whether half the part fallith doun of vs, thei schulen not recke ynow, for thou art rekynyd for ten thousynde; therfor it is betere, that thou be to vs in the citee in stronge hold.
Asi vanhu vakati, “Imi hamufaniri kuenda; kana tikamanikidzirwa kutiza, havambovi nehanya nesu. Kunyange kana hafu yedu ikafa, havambovi nehanya; asi imi munokosha sesu tiri zviuru gumi. Zvingava nani zvino kuti imi mutitsigire muri muguta.”
4 `To whiche the kyng seide, Y schal do this, that semeth riytful to you. Therfor the kyng stood bisidis the yate, and the puple yede out bi her cumpenyes, bi hundridis and bi thousyndis.
Mambo akati, “Ndichaita zvose zvamunoona zvakakunakirai.” Saka mambo akamira parutivi rwesuo pakanga pachifamba varume vose vachibuda namapoka amazana neezviuru.
5 And the king comaundide to Joab, and to Abisai, and Ethai, and seyde, Kepe ye to me the child Absolon. And al the puple herde the kyng comaundinge to alle the princes for Absolon.
Mambo akarayira Joabhu, Abhishai naItai akati, “Munzwire henyu jaya nyasha, iye Abhusaromu nokuda kwangu.”
6 Therfor the puple yede out in to the feeld ayens Israel; and the batel was maad in the forest of Effraym.
Varwi vakafamba vachipinda musango kuti vandorwa navaIsraeri, uye hondo yakarwiwa mudondo raEfuremu.
7 And the puple of Israel was slayn there of the oost of Dauid, and a greet sleyng of twenti thousynde was maad in that dai.
Imomo hondo yeIsraeri yakakundwa navanhu vaDhavhidhi, uye pakava nokufa kukuru zuva iroro, varume zviuru makumi maviri vakafa.
8 Forsothe the batel was scaterid there on the face of al erthe, and many mo weren of the puple whiche the forest wastide, than thei whiche the swerd deuourid in that dai.
Kurwa kwakapararira panyika yose, uye dondo rakauraya vanhu vazhinji pazuva iro kukunda munondo.
9 Sotheli it bifeld, that Absalon sittinge on a mule, cam ayens the seruauntis of Dauid; and whanne the mule hadde entrid vndur a thicke ook, and greet, the heed of Absolon cleuyde to the ook; and whanne he was hangid bitwixe heuene and erthe, the mule, on which he sat, passide.
Zvino zvakaitika kuti Abhusaromu akasangana navanhu vaDhavhidhi. Akanga akatasva nyurusi rake, uye nyurusi parakapinda napasi pamatavi makobvu omuti mukuru womuouki, musoro waAbhusaromu wakabatwa mumuti. Akasiyiwa akarembera mudenga, nyurusi raakanga akatasva rikaramba richienda.
10 Sotheli `sum man siy this, and telde to Joab, and seide, Y siy Absolon hange on an ook.
Mumwe wavarume akati aona izvi, akati kuna Joabhu, “Ndaona Abhusaromu akarembera mumuti womuouki.”
11 And Joab seide to the man that `hadde telde to hym, If thou siyest, whi persidist thou not hym to the erthe, and Y schulde haue youe `to thee ten siclis of siluer, and a girdil?
Joabhu akati kumurume akanga amuudza izvozvo, “Watii? Wamuona? Seiko usina kumubayira pasi pakare ipapo? Ipapo ndingadai ndazokupa mashekeri gumi esirivha nebhanhire romurwi.”
12 And he seide to Joab, Thouy thou paiedist in myn hondis a thousynde platis of siluer, Y nolde sende myn hond in to the sone of the king; for the while we herden, the kyng comaundide to thee, and to Abisai, and to Ethai, and seide, Kepe ye to me the child Absolon.
Asi murume uyu akati, “Kunyange dai chiuru chamashekeri chakanga chayerwa mumaoko angu, handaigona kusimudzira mwanakomana wamambo ruoko rwangu kuti ndimuuraye. Mambo akakurayirai imi, Abhishai naItai isu tichizvinzwa achiti, ‘Mudzivirire jaya Abhusaromu nokuda kwangu.’
13 But and if Y hadde do ayens my lijf hardili, this myyte not be hid fro the kyng, and thou woldist stonde on the contrarye side.
Uye kana dai ndanga ndaisa upenyu hwangu panjodzi, uye hapana chakavanzika kuna mambo, imi maizomira kure neni.”
14 And Joab seide, Not as thou wolt, `Absolon schal be kept, but Y schal asaile hym bifor thee. Therfore Joab took thre speris in his hond, and fitchide tho in the herte of Absolon. And whanne he spraulide, yit cleuynge in the ook,
Joabhu akati, “Handinganonoki kudai nokuda kwako.” Saka akatora mapfumo matatu mumaoko ake akaanyudza mumwoyo maAbhusaromu, uye Abhusaromu achiri mupenyu mumuti womuouki.
15 ten yonge squieris of Joab runnen, and smytiden, and killiden hym.
Uye vatakuri venhumbi dzokurwa nadzo dzaJoabhu gumi vakakomba Abhusaromu, vakamubaya, vakamuuraya.
16 Sotheli Joab sownede with a clarioun, and withhelde the puple, lest it pursuede Israel fleynge, and he wolde spare the multitude.
Ipapo Joabhu akaridza hwamanda, uye varwi vakarega kutevera vaIsraeri, nokuti Joabhu akavamisa.
17 And thei token Absolon, and castiden forth him in to a greet dich in the forest, and baren togidere a ful greet heep of stoonys on hym; forsothe al Israel fledde in to his tabernaclis.
Vakatora Abhusaromu vakamukanda mugomba guru raiva mudondo vakatutira murwi mukuru wamatombo pamusoro pake. Zvichakadaro, vaIsraeri vose vakatiza vakaenda kudzimba dzavo.
18 Forsothe Absolon, while he lyuyde yit, hadde reisid to hym a memorial, which is in the valey of the kyng; for he seide, Y haue no sone, and this schal be the mynde of my name; and he clepide `the memorial bi his name, and it is clepid the Hond, `that is, werk, of Absolon `til to this dai.
Panguva youpenyu hwake, Abhusaromu akanga atora mbiru akaimisa muMupata waMambo sechirangaridzo kwaari, nokuti akafunga akati, “Handina mwanakomana angayeuchidza vanhu zita rangu.” Akatumidza mbiru iyo zita rake, uye inonzi Mbiru Yokuyeuka Abhusaromu kusvikira nhasi.
19 Forsothe Achymaas, sone of Sadoch, seide, Y schal renne, and Y schal telle to the kyng, that the Lord hath maad doom to hym of the hond of hise enemyes.
Zvino Ahimaazi mwanakomana waZadhoki akati, “Regai ndimhanye neshoko kuna mambo rokuti Jehovha amurwira kubva muruoko rwavavengi vake.”
20 To whom Joab seide, Thou schalt not be messanger in this dai, but thou schalt telle in another dai; I nyle that thou telle to dai, for the sone of the kyng is deed.
Joabhu akati, “Hausiwe unoenda neshoko nhasi. Ungaenda hako neshoko pane dzimwe nguva, asi haufaniri kuita izvozvo nhasi, nokuti mwanakomana wamambo afa.”
21 And Joab seide to Chusi, Go thou, and telle to the kyng tho thingis that thou hast seyn. Chusi worschypide Joab, and ran.
Ipapo Joabhu akati kumuEtiopia, “Chienda undoudza mambo zvawaona.” MuEtiopia akakotama pamberi paJoabhu uye akamhanya achibvapo.
22 Eft Achymaas, sone of Sadoch, seide to Joab, What lettith, if also Y renne aftir Chusi? And Joab seide to hym, What wolt thou renne, my sone? Come thou hidur, thou schalt not be a berere of good message.
Ahimaazi mwanakomana waZadhoki akatizve kuna Joabhu, “Kunyange zvakadaro hazvo, ndapota regai ndimhanye nditevere muEtiopia.” Asi Joabhu akapindura akati, “Mwanakomana wangu, unodireiko kuenda? Hauna kana shoko richakupa mubayiro.”
23 Which answeride, `What sotheli if Y schal renne? And Joab seide to hym, Renn thou. Therfor Achymaas ran bi the weie of schortnesse, `and sped, and passide Chusi.
Iye akati, “Kunyange zvakadaro hazvo, ndinoda kumhanya ini.” Saka Joabhu akati, “Mhanya!” Ipapo Ahimaazi akamhanya nomunzira yomubani akasiya muEtiopia.
24 Forsothe Dauid sat bitwixe twei yatis; sotheli the spiere, that was in the hiynesse of the yate on the wal, reiside the iyen, and siy a man aloone rennynge;
Dhavhidhi paakanga agere pakati pamasuo maviri, murindi akakwira pamusoro pedenga resuo reparusvingo. Akati atarisa kunze, akaona murume achimhanya ari oga.
25 and the spiere criede, and schewide to the kyng. And the kyng seide to hym, If he is aloone, good message is in his mouth.
Murindi akadanidzira kuna mambo akamuzivisa izvozvo. Mambo akati, “Kana ari oga, anofanira kunge ane shoko rakanaka.” Uye murume akaramba achingoswedera.
26 Sotheli while he hastide, and neiyede neer, the spiere siy another man rennynge; and the spiere criede `in the hiynesse, and seide, Another man rennynge aloone apperith to me. And the kyng seide to hym, And this man is a good messanger.
Ipapo murindi akaonazve mumwe murume achimhanya, akadanidzira kumutariri wesuo akati, “Tarira mumwe ari kumhanya ari oga!” Mambo akati, “Anofanira kunge achiuyawo neshoko rakanaka.”
27 Sotheli the spiere seide, Y biholde the rennyng of the formere, as the rennyng of Achymaas, sone of Sadoch. And the kyng seide, He is a good man, and he cometh bryngynge a good message.
Murindi akati, “Ndinoona sokuti wokutanga anomhanya saAhimaazi mwanakomana waZadhoki.” Mambo akati, “Munhu akanaka iyeye. Ari kuuya namashoko akanaka.”
28 Forsothe Achymaas criede, and seide to the kyng, Heil kyng! And he worschipide the kyng lowli bifor hym to erthe, and seide, Blessid be thi Lord God, that closide togidere the men, that reisyden her hondis ayens my lord the kyng.
Ipapo Ahimaazi akadanidzira kuna mambo achiti, “Rugare!” Akakotama pamberi pamambo akatsikitsira uso hwake pasi akati, “Jehovha Mwari wenyu ngaarumbidzwe! Akaisa kwamuri varume vakanga vachisimudzira maoko avo kuti varwe naishe wangu mambo.”
29 And the kyng seide, Whether pees is to the child Absolon? And Achymaas seide, Y siy, `that is, Y herde, a great noise, whanne Joab, thi seruaunt, thou kyng, sente me thi seruaunt; Y kan noon othir thing.
Mambo akabvunza akati, “Ko, jaya Abhusaromu mupenyu here?” Ahimaazi akati, “Ndakaona kunyongana kukuru panguva iyo Joabhu akanga oda kutuma muranda wamambo uye neni, muranda wenyu, asi handina kuziva kuti chaiva chii.”
30 To whom the kyng seide, Passe thou, and stonde here. And whanne he hadde passid, and stood, Chusi apperide;
Mambo akati, “Mira parutivi uye usabva pano.” Saka akasudurukira parutivi ndokumirapo.
31 and he cam and seide, My lord the kyng, Y brynge good message; for the Lord hath demed to dai for thee of the hond of alle men that risiden ayens thee.
Ipapo muEtiopia akasvika akati, “Ishe wangu mambo, inzwai mashoko akanaka! Jehovha akurwirai nhasi kuna vose vakakumukirai.”
32 Forsothe the kyng seide to Chusi, Whether pees is to the child Absolon? To whom Chusi answeride, and seide, The enemyes of my lord the kyng, and alle men that risiden ayens hym in to yuel, be maad as the child.
Mambo akabvunza muEtiopia akati, “Ko, mujaya Abhusaromu mupenyu here?” MuEtiopia akapindura achiti, “Vavengi vashe wangu mambo navose vanokumukirai kuti vakukuvadzei ngavave sejaya iro.”
33 Therfor the kyng was sory, and stiede in to the soler of the yate, and wepte, and spak thus goynge, My sone, Absolon! Absolon, my sone! who yyueth to me, that Y die for thee? Absolon, my sone! my sone, Absolon!
Mambo akadedera. Akakwira kukamuri yakanga iri pamusoro pesuo akachema. Paaifamba aiti, “Haiwa mwanakomana wangu Abhusaromu! Mwanakomana wangu, mwanakomana wangu Abhusaromu! Dai chete ndafa hangu ini pachinzvimbo chako! Haiwa Abhusaromu, mwanakomana wangu, mwanakomana wangu!”
