< Samuel 1 25 >
1 Le ɣeyiɣi kpui aɖe megbe la, Samuel ku eye Israel blibo la ƒo ƒu hena kunu la wɔwɔ. Woɖii ɖe eƒe ƒometɔwo ƒe anyigba dzi le Rama. Le ɣeyiɣi sia me la, David yi gbedzi le Paran.
USamuweli wasesifa; loIsrayeli wonke wahlangana, bamlilela, bamngcwabela endlini yakhe eRama. UDavida wasesukuma wehlela enkangala yeParani.
2 Lãnyiƒe nɔ kesinɔtɔ aɖe si tso Maon la si le afi ma te ɖe Karmel ŋu. Alẽ akpe etɔ̃ kple gbɔ̃ akpe ɖeka nɔ esi. Kesinɔtɔ sia va eƒe lãnyiƒe le ɣeyiɣi sia me hena fukoko na eƒe alẽwo.
Kwakukhona-ke indoda eMahoni, lomsebenzi wayo wawuseKharmeli; lindoda-ke yayiyisikhulu esikhulu, yayilezimvu eziyizinkulungwane ezintathu lembuzi eziyinkulungwane, yayigunda izimvu zayo eKharmeli.
3 Eŋkɔe nye Nabal. Srɔ̃a nye nyɔnu dzetugbe aɖe si ƒe tagbɔ kɔ; eŋkɔe nye Abigail. Nabal nye Kaleb ƒe dzidzimevi, enye ame si meɖɔ ʋu kura o eye wòganye ŋlɔmitɔ kple kɔlialiatɔ hã.
Njalo ibizo laleyondoda lalinguNabali, lebizo lomkayo lalinguAbigayili. Njalo owesifazana wayelokuqedisisa okuhle, elesimo esihle, kodwa indoda yayilukhuni ilezenzo ezimbi; yayingeyakoKalebi.
4 Esi David se be Nabal nɔ fu kom na eƒe alẽwo la,
UDavida wasesizwa esenkangala ukuthi uNabali ugunda izimvu zakhe.
5 eɖo eƒe ɖekakpui ewo ɖe Karmel be woado gbe na Nabal eye woagblɔ nɛ be,
UDavida wasethuma amajaha alitshumi, uDavida wathi emajaheni: Yenyukelani eKharmeli, liye kuNabali, limbuze impilo ebizweni lami,
6 “Mawu nana wò kple wò ƒometɔwo miakpɔ dzidzedze eye nu sia nu si nye mia tɔ la nadzi ɖe edzi na mi.
lizakutsho njalo: Impilakahle kayibe kuwe, ukuthula kakube kuwe, lokuthula kakube sendlini yakho, lokuthula kakube kukho konke olakho!
7 Wogblɔ nam be èle fu kom na wò alẽwo kple gbɔ̃wo. Le ɣeyiɣi si me wò alẽkplɔlawo nɔ mía dome la, míewɔ nuvevi aɖeke wo kpɔ o eye míefi woƒe naneke kpɔ hã o.
Sengizwile-ke ukuthi ulabagundi; abelusi olabo-ke babelathi, kasibalimazanga, futhi kabaswelanga lutho zonke izinsuku beseKharmeli.
8 Wò ɖekakpuiwo ate ŋu aɖi ɖase le nya sia ŋu na wò. Mele nye amewo ɖom ɖa be woabia nunana aɖe tso gbɔwò elabena ŋkekenyui aɖe va tu mí. Míeɖe kuku, na nu sia nu si dze ŋuwò ko la mí.”
Buza amajaha akho, azakutshela. Ngakho amajaha kawathole umusa emehlweni akho, ngoba sifike ngosuku oluhle. Akunike inceku zakho lendodana yakho uDavida lokho isandla sakho esizakuthola.
9 Ɖekakpuiawo va gblɔ David ƒe nya la na Nabal.
Kwathi amajaha kaDavida esefikile, akhuluma kuNabali ngokwalawomazwi wonke ebizweni likaDavida, aselinda.
10 Ke Nabal bia be, “Ame kae nye David eye ame ka tututue Yese vi sia bu be yenye? Subɔla geɖewo li le ŋkeke siawo me, ame siwo si dzo le woƒe aƒetɔwo gbɔ.
UNabali waseziphendula izinceku zikaDavida, wathi: Ngubani uDavida? Njalo ngubani indodana kaJese? Lamuhla zinengi inceku ezibalekayo, ileyo laleyo enkosini yayo.
11 Ɖe matsɔ nye abolo kple nye tsi kple lã si mewu na nye fukolawo la ana ameha aɖe si tso afi si nyemenya oa?”
Pho, ngithathe isinkwa sami, lamanzi ami, lenyama yami engiyihlabele abagundi bami, ngikuphe abantu engingazi ukuthi bavela ngaphi?
12 Ale David ƒe ɖekakpuiawo trɔ gbɔ va gblɔ nya siwo Nabal gblɔ la nɛ.
Amajaha kaDavida asephendukela endleleni yawo, abuyela, eza, ambikela njengawo wonke lamazwi.
13 David ŋutɔ tsɔ eƒe yi eye wòɖe gbe na eƒe amewo hã be woatsɔ woƒe yiwo. Ame alafa ene dze mɔ kple David eye ame alafa eve tsi anyi henɔ woƒe nuwo ŋu dzɔm.
UDavida wasesithi ebantwini bakhe: Bhincani, ngulowo lalowo inkemba yakhe! Babhinca, ngulowo lalowo inkemba yakhe, loDavida laye wabhinca inkemba yakhe; kwasekusenyuka emva kukaDavida phose amadoda angamakhulu amane, kodwa angamakhulu amabili ahlala empahleni.
14 Nabal ƒe amewo dometɔ ɖeka yi ɖagblɔ na Nabal srɔ̃, Abigail, be, “David ɖo amewo ɖa tso gbedzi be woaƒo nu kple míaƒe aƒetɔ ke míaƒe aƒetɔ dzu wo eye wòblu ɖe wo.
Kodwa elinye ijaha lamajaha lamtshela uAbigayili umkaNabali lathi: Khangela, uDavida uthume izithunywa zivela enkangala ukubingelela inkosi yethu, kodwa yazithethisa.
15 Ke ame siawo wɔ nyui na mí. Womewɔ nuvevi aɖeke mi o. Le ɣeyiɣi si katã míenɔ gbegbea kpli wo la, míaƒe naneke mebu o.
Kanti labobantu basiphatha kuhle kakhulu, kasilimalanga, kasiswelanga lutho zonke izinsuku sihambisana labo, sisemmangweni.
16 Wonye kpɔtɔtɔ ƒo xlã mí zã kple keli esime míenɔ míaƒe alẽhawo dzi kpɔm le wo gbɔ.
Babengumduli kithi ebusuku kanye lemini, zonke izinsuku silabo seluse izimvu.
17 Anyo be nàbu ta me kaba, elabena nya sesẽ aɖe le dzɔdzɔ ge ɖe míaƒe aƒetɔ kple ƒome blibo la dzi. Míaƒe aƒetɔ nye kɔlialiatɔ ale gbegbe be ame aɖeke maƒo nu nɛ wòase o.”
Khathesi-ke, yazi ubone ukuthi uzakwenzani; ngoba ububi buqunyelwe inkosi yethu lendlu yayo yonke; ngoba uyindodana kaBheliyali okungangokuthi kakho ongakhuluma laye.
18 Abigail ɖe abla enumake, tsɔ abolo alafa eve, wain atigo eve, alẽ atɔ̃ siwo wowu la ƒe lã, bli tɔtɔ agba eve, abolo alafa ɖeka si wowɔ kple waintsetse ƒuƒu kple abolo alafa eve siwo wowɔ kple gbotsetse. Etsɔ nu siawo ɖo tedziwo dzi.
UAbigayili wasephangisa wathatha izinkwa ezingamakhulu amabili, lembodlela ezimbili zewayini, lezimvu ezinhlanu ezilungisiweyo, lamaseya amane amabele akhanzingiweyo, lamahlukuzo alikhulu ezithelo zevini ezonyisiweyo, lezinkwa ezingamakhulu amabili zomkhiwa, wakuthwalisa obabhemi.
19 Egblɔ na eƒe dɔlawo be, “Midze mɔ, madze mia yome” Ke megblɔ nya aɖeke na srɔ̃a, Nabal, o.
Wasesithi emajaheni akhe: Dlulani phambi kwami; khangelani, ngiyalilandela. Kodwa kamtshelanga umkakhe uNabali.
20 Esi wònɔ eƒe tedzia dom va ɖo to aɖe ƒe balime la, David kple eƒe ameawoe nye ekem ɖiɖi gbɔna egbɔ eye wòyi ɖado go wo.
Kwasekusithi esagade ubabhemi esehlela endaweni esithekileyo yentaba, khangela-ke, uDavida labantu bakhe behla behlangabezana laye; wasehlangana labo.
21 Fifi laa ko David gblɔ be, “Nye ame sia ƒe nuwo dzi kpɔkpɔ nɛ le gbea dzi be womefi eƒe naneke o nye dzodzro. Etsɔ vɔ̃ ɖo nyui si mewɔ nɛ la teƒe nam.
Njalo uDavida wayethe: Isibili ngigcine ngeze konke lo ayelakho enkangala, kakwaze kwasweleka lutho kukho konke ayelakho. Usengibuyisele okubi ngokuhle.
22 Mawu nefia David eye wòagafiae ɖe edzi ɖaa ne hafi etsɔ ŋdi naɖo la, magblẽ ŋutsu aɖe ɖi nɛ agbagbe!”
UNkulunkulu akenze njalo ezitheni zikaDavida, engezelele ngokunjalo, uba ngitshiya loyedwa kubo bonke alabo kuze kube sekuseni abachamela emdulini.
23 Esi Abigail kpɔ David la, eɖi le eƒe tedzi dzi enumake eye wòde ta agu ɖe David ŋgɔ.
Lapho uAbigayili ebona uDavida, waphangisa wehla kubabhemi, wathi mbo ngobuso bakhe phansi phambi kukaDavida, wakhothamela emhlabathini.
24 Edze klo ɖe eƒe afɔ nu hegblɔ nɛ be, “Nye aƒetɔ, na be vodada sia nanɔ nye ko dzi. Meɖe kuku, na wò dɔla naƒo nu kpli wò eye nàɖo to nya si le wò dɔla si.
Wawela enyaweni zakhe wathi: Lobububi kabube phezu kwami mina, nkosi yami; incekukazi yakho ake ikhulume endlebeni zakho, uzwe amazwi encekukazi yakho.
25 Nye aƒetɔ, megaɖo to Nabal ŋutsu vɔ̃ɖi ma o. Ɖe ko wòle abe aƒe ŋkɔ ene. Eƒe ŋkɔ gɔmee nye Bometsila. Eya ta bometsitsi nɔ eŋu ɖo. Ke nye, wò dɔla, ya la, nyemekpɔ ŋutsu siwo nye aƒetɔ dɔ ɖa la o.
Inkosi yami ake inganaki lowomuntu kaBheliyali, uNabali; ngoba njengebizo lakhe unjalo; uNabali libizo lakhe, lobuthutha bukuye. Kodwa mina, incekukazi yakho, kangiwabonanga amajaha enkosi yami owawathumayo.
26 Aƒetɔ, zi ale si Yehowa ɖe wò tso amewuwu kple hlɔ̃biabia me ta la, metsɔ Yehowa ƒe agbe kple wò ŋutɔ wò agbe le kuku ɖem be fiƒode naɖi wò futɔwo katã, abe Nabal ene, ŋu.
Ngakho-ke, nkosi yami, kuphila kukaJehova, lokuphila komphefumulo wakho, njengoba iNkosi ikunqandile ukungena ngokuchitha igazi, lokuziphindisela ngesandla sakho, ngalokho-ke kazibe njengoNabali izitha zakho lalabo abadinga ububi enkosini yami.
27 Azɔ la, xɔ nunana siwo metsɔ vɛ na nye aƒetɔ la, na wò kple ɖekakpuiawo.
Manje-ke, lesisibusiso incekukazi yakho esilethe enkosini yami kasinikwe amajaha ahamba esiya le lale emanyathelweni enkosi yami.
28 Tsɔ vo si meda be medo dzi heva afi sia la kem. Yehowa aɖo eteƒe na wò kokoko, ana wò fiaɖuƒe nasu wò dzidzimeviwo si eye enu matso akpɔakpɔ o elabena Yehowa ƒe aʋawo wɔm nèle eye dzɔgbevɔ̃e madzɔ ɖe dziwò le wò agbemeŋkekewo katã me o.
Akuthethelele isiphambeko sencekukazi yakho; ngoba iNkosi izakwenzela lokwenzela inkosi yami indlu eqinileyo, ngoba inkosi yami ilwa izimpi zeNkosi, lobubi kabutholwanga kuwe kusukela ensukwini zakho.
29 Ne amewo ati wò agbe yome hã la, ànɔ dedie le Yehowa, wò Mawu la ƒe dzikpɔkpɔ te, abe ale si ga nɔa dedie le gatɔ ƒe gakotoku me ene! Ke wò futɔwo ƒe agbe abu abe kpe si woda le aŋetu me ene.
Loba kusukuma umuntu ukukuxotsha lokudinga impilo yakho, kodwa umphefumulo wenkosi yami uzabotshelwa emqulwini wabaphilayo leNkosi uNkulunkulu wakho; kodwa umphefumulo wezitha zakho izawujikijela kungathi uphume phakathi kwesavutha.
30 Ne Yehowa wɔ nyui siwo katã ŋugbe wòdo na wò eye nèzu Israel Fia la,
Kwasekusithi, lapho iNkosi isikwenzile enkosini yami njengakho konke okuhle ekukhulume ngawe, isikumisile waba ngumbusi phezu kukaIsrayeli,
31 ekema, nye aƒetɔ, màxa nu be yewu ame aɖewo dzodzro alo be yebia hlɔ̃ na ye ɖokui o. Gawu la, ne Yehowa yra wò la, nye aƒetɔ, meɖe kuku, ɖo ŋku dzinye!”
kakungabi yisikhubekiso kuwe lokukhubekiswa kwenhliziyo enkosini yami, ngokuthi uchithe igazi ngeze, lokuthi inkosi yami iziphindisele. Lapho iNkosi isiyenzele okuhle inkosi yami, khumbula incekukazi yakho.
32 David ɖo eŋu na Abigail be, “Woakafu Yehowa, Israel ƒe Mawu, ame si dɔ wò ɖa nèva do gom egbe!
UDavida wasesithi kuAbigayili: Kayibusiswe iNkosi, uNkulunkulu kaIsrayeli, ekuthumileyo lamuhla ukungihlangabeza.
33 Míada akpe na Mawu le susu nyui si wòna wò la ta! Meda akpe na wò be nèɖem tso amewo ƒe ʋukɔkɔɖi kple nye asitsɔtsɔ bia hlɔ̃e la me,
Futhi kakubusiswe ukuqedisisa kwakho, ubusiswe lawe onginqandileyo lamuhla ukuze ngingangeni ekuchitheni igazi lokuziphindisela ngesandla sami.
34 elabena metsɔ Yehowa, Israel ƒe Mawu, ame si na nyemewɔ nuvevi wò o la, ka atam be ne menye ɖe nèva do gom o la, Nabal ƒe amewo dometɔ ɖeka pɛ gɔ̃ hã maganɔ agbe etsɔ ŋdi o.”
Ngoba ngeqiniso, kuphila kukaJehova uNkulunkulu kaIsrayeli, onginqandileyo ukuze ngingenzi ububi kuwe, ngoba uba ubungaphangisanga weza ukungihlangabeza, sibili, bekungayikusala loyedwa kuNabali kuze kube sekukhanyeni kwekuseni ochamela emdulini.
35 David xɔ Abigail ƒe nunana la eye wògblɔ nɛ be wòatrɔ ayi aƒe eye megavɔ̃ o elabena yemawu srɔ̃a o.
UDavida wasesemukela esandleni sakhe lokho amlethele khona. Wasesithi kuye: Yenyukela ngokuthula endlini yakho; bona, ngililalele ilizwi lakho, ngibemukele ubuso bakho.
36 Esi Abigail ɖo aƒe me la, ekpɔ be ye srɔ̃ ɖo kplɔ̃ gã aɖe eye wòmu aha, eya ta megblɔ nya aɖeke nɛ tso eƒe gododo David ŋu o, va se ɖe esime ŋu ke.
UAbigayili wasefika kuNabali, khangela-ke, wayeledili endlini yakhe, njengedili lenkosi. Lenhliziyo kaNabali yathokoza phakathi kwakhe, njalo wayedakwe kwedlulisa; ngakho kamtshelanga lutho, oluncinyane loba olukhulu, kwaze kwaba sekukhanyeni kwekuseni.
37 Esi aha la kɔ le mo nɛ la, Abigail gblɔ nya sia nya nɛ. Tete eƒe dzi fa ɖe eƒe dɔ me eye wòtsi maʋamaʋã abe kpe ene.
Kwasekusithi ekuseni lapho iwayini seliphumile kuNabali, lomkakhe esemtshele lezizinto, inhliziyo yakhe yafa phakathi kwakhe, wasesiba njengelitshe.
38 Le ŋkeke ewo megbe la, Yehowa na Nabal ku.
Kwasekusithi phose emva kwensuku ezilitshumi iNkosi yamtshaya uNabali, wasesifa.
39 Esi David se be Nabal ku la, egblɔ be, “Woakafu Yehowa! Mawu ɖo eteƒe na Nabal eye wòkpe ɖe ŋunye be nye ŋutɔ nyemebia hlɔ̃e o. Exɔ eƒe tohehe le eƒe nu vɔ̃ ta!” David dɔ eƒe dɔlawo ɖe Abigail gbɔ enumake be woagblɔ nɛ be yedi be wòazu ye srɔ̃.
UDavida esezwile ukuthi uNabali usefile wathi: Kayibusiswe iNkosi emele udaba lwehlazo lami esandleni sikaNabali, yavimbela inceku yayo ebubini; iNkosi yabuyisela-ke ububi bukaNabali ekhanda lakhe. UDavida wasethuma, wakhuluma loAbigayili ukuthi amthathe abe ngumkakhe.
40 Esi dɔlawo va ɖo Karmel eye wogblɔ nu si ta wova na Abigail la,
Lapho izinceku zikaDavida zifika kuAbigayili eKharmeli, zakhuluma laye zisithi: UDavida usithumile kuwe ukukuthatha ube ngumkakhe.
41 elɔ̃ ɖe eƒe biabia la dzi enumake. Tete wòtsi tre, eye wòtsyɔ mo anyi gblɔ be, “Wò dɔlanyɔnu aklɔ eƒe aƒetɔ ƒe dɔlawo ƒe afɔ ŋu abe kosi ene.”
Wasesukuma, wakhothama ngobuso emhlabathini, wathi: Khangela, incekukazi yakho kayibe yisigqili sokugezisa inyawo zenceku zenkosi yami.
42 Edzra ɖo kaba, kplɔ nyɔnudɔla atɔ̃ ɖe asi, lia eƒe tedzi dzi eye wòdze dɔlawo yome yi David gbɔ. Ale Abigail zu David srɔ̃.
UAbigayili wasephangisa esukuma, wagada ubabhemi, lentombi zakhe ezinhlanu ezazimphelekezela, walandela izithunywa zikaDavida, waba ngumkakhe.
43 David ɖe srɔ̃ bubu, Ahinoam, tso Yezreel hã.
UDavida wathatha loAhinowama weJizereyeli, labo bobabili baba ngomkakhe.
44 Ke Fia Saul zi via nyɔnu Mixal, ame si nye David srɔ̃ la, dzi wòɖe Palti, Lais vi, tso Galim.
Ngoba uSawuli wayenike uMikhali indodakazi yakhe, umkaDavida, kuPaliti indodana kaLayishi owayengoweGalimi.
