1 Le ŋkeke etɔ̃ megbe esi David kple eƒe amewo ɖo wo nɔƒe le Ziklag du la me la, wokpɔ be Amalekitɔwo va ha du la, tɔ dzoe wòbi keŋkeŋkeŋ
UDavida labantu bakhe bafika eZikhilagi ngelanga lesithathu. Ama-Amaleki ayehlasele iNegebi leZikhilagi. Ayehlasele iZikhilagi ayitshisa,
2 eye wokplɔ woƒe nyɔnuwo kple wo viwo dzoe.
njalo ayethumbe abesifazane labo bonke ababekuyo, abatsha labadala. Kawabulalanga lamunye wabo, kodwa ahamba labo ekuhambeni kwawo.
3 Esi David kple eƒe amewo kpɔ du la ƒe gbagbã kple nu si dzɔ ɖe wo srɔ̃wo kple wo viwo dzi la,
Kwathi uDavida labantu bakhe befika eZikhilagi, bayifica iqothulwe ngomlilo njalo omkabo lamadodana kanye lamadodakazi abo bethunjiwe.
4 wofa avi va se ɖe esime avifafa glo wo.
Ngakho uDavida labantu bakhe bakhala kakhulu baze baphela amandla okukhala.
5 David srɔ̃ eveawo, Ahinoam tso Yezreel kple Abigail, Nabal ƒe ahosi, tso Karmel hã, nɔ ame siwo wokplɔ dzoe la dome.
Abafazi bakaDavida bobabili babethunjiwe, u-Ahinowama waseJezerili lo-Abhigeli, umfelokazi kaNabhali waseKhameli.
6 Nyadzɔdzɔ sia te ɖe David dzi ŋutɔ, vevietɔ esi David ƒe amewo nɔ nu xam le wo viwo ta la, wode asi gbɔgblɔ me be yewoawui. Ke David tsɔ Yehowa eƒe Mawu do ŋusẽ eɖokui.
UDavida wayesekhathazeke kakhulu ngoba abantu babekhuluma ngokumkhanda ngamatshe, lowo lalowo efuthelene emoyeni ngenxa yamadodana akhe lamadodakazi. Kodwa uDavida wathola amandla kuThixo uNkulunkulu wakhe.
7 David gblɔ na nunɔla Abiata, Ahimelek ƒe vi be wòatsɔ eƒe kɔmewu la vɛ eye Abiata wɔ ɖe edzi.
UDavida wasesithi ku-Abhiyatha umphristi, indodana ka-Ahimeleki, “Ngilethela isembatho samahlombe.” U-Abhiyathari wasiletha kuye,
8 David bia Yehowa be, “Mati wo yomea? Mate ŋu alé woa?” Yehowa gblɔ nɛ be, “Ɛ̃, dze wo yome; àxɔ miaƒe nu sia nu si wotsɔ dzoe la le wo si!”
uDavida wasebuza kuThixo esithi, “Ngililandele yini lelixuku elihlaselayo? Ngizalifica na?” Waphendula wathi, “Lilandele. Uzalifica impela njalo uzaphumelela ekuhlengeni.”
9 David kple eƒe ame alafa adeawo va ɖo Besor tɔʋu la to, afi si ame aɖewo tsi
UDavida labantu abangamakhulu ayisithupha ababelaye bafika eDongeni lwaseBhesori, lapho abanye abasala khona,
10 elabena ɖeɖi te ame alafa eve ŋu ale gbegbe be womate ŋu atso tɔʋu la o. Ke David kple ame alafa ene yi Amalekitɔwo yometiti dzi.
ngoba abangamakhulu amabili basebedinwe kakhulu ukuba bachaphe udonga. Kodwa uDavida labantu abangamakhulu amane baqhubeka belandela.
11 Wokpɔ Egipte ŋutsu aɖe le gbe me eye wokplɔe vɛ na David. Wona nui wòɖu eye wona tsii wòno.
Bafica umGibhithe egangeni bamusa kuDavida. Bamnika amanzi okunatha lokudla ukuba adle,
12 Wotsɔ gbotsetsebolo eve kple waintsetse ƒuƒu eve nɛ. Esi wòɖu nu siawo la, egbɔ agbe elabena meɖu naneke alo no tsi ŋkeke etɔ̃ kple zã etɔ̃ o.
ingxenye yekhekhe lemikhiwa ekhanyiweyo lekhekhe lamavini awonyisiweyo. Wadla wathola amandla, ngoba wayengadlanga lutho njalo enganathanga manzi insuku ezintathu lobusuku obuthathu.
13 David biae be. “Ame kae nènye eye afi ka nètso?” Ɖekakpui la ɖo eŋu be, “Egiptetɔe menye heganye Amalekitɔ aɖe ƒe subɔla. Nye aƒetɔ gblẽm ɖi egbee nye ŋkeke etɔ̃lia eye nye lãme gblẽ.
UDavida wambuza wathi, “Ungokabani wena, njalo uvela ngaphi na?” Yena wathi, “NgingumGibhithe, isigqili somʼAmaleki. Inkosi yami ingitshiyile sengigula ensukwini ezintathu ezedluleyo.
14 Míede ɖaha Keretitɔwo ƒe dziehe kple Yuda ƒe anyigba kple Kaleb nyigba ƒe dziehe, míetɔ dzo Ziklag du la eye míetrɔ va yina.”
Sihlasele iNegebi yamaKherethi lelizwe likaJuda kanye leNegebi yamaKhalebi. Njalo iZikhilagi siyitshisile.”
15 David biae be, “Àte ŋu afia afi si woyi la mía?” Ɖekakpui la ɖo eŋu be, “Ne ètsɔ Mawu ƒe ŋkɔ ka atam nam be yemawum alo atsɔm ade asi na nye aƒetɔ o la, ekema makplɔ wò ayi wo gbɔe.”
UDavida wambuza wathi, “Ungangisa kulelixuku elihlaselayo na?” Waphendula wathi, “Funga kimi phambi kukaNkulunkulu ukuthi kawuyikungibulala kumbe unginikele enkosini yami, besengikusa-ke kubo.”
16 Ale ɖekakpui la kplɔ wo yi afi si Amalekitɔwo ƒu asaɖa anyi do. Wokaka ɖe gbedzi henɔ nu ɖum, nɔ nu nom eye wonɔ ɣe ɖum kple dzidzɔ le Filistitɔwo kple Yudatɔwo ƒe nu geɖe siwo wokpɔ ha la ta.
Wakhokhela uDavida, bababona begcwele indawana yonke, besidla, benatha njalo bejabula ngenxa yobunengi bempango ababeyithumbile elizweni lamaFilistiya kanye lakoJuda.
17 David kple eƒe amewo dze wo dzi eye wowu wo katã le zã ma me kple ŋufɔke. Wowu ame sia ame negbe ɖekakpui alafa ene siwo do kposɔwo la koe te ŋu si.
UDavida walwa labo kusukela ekuseni kwaze kwahlwa ngelanga elilandelayo, njalo kakho owabo owaphunyukayo ngaphandle kwamajaha angamakhulu amane agada amakamela abaleka.
18 David xɔ nu sia nu si Amalekitɔwo ha. Exɔ srɔ̃a eveawo hã.
UDavida wakuthatha njalo konke okwakuthunjwe ngama-Amaleki kanye labomkakhe ababili.
19 Naneke mebu o; woxɔ ɖevi kple tsitsi, ŋutsuvi kple nyɔnuvi kple nu sia nu si woha. Ale David xɔ nu sia nu gbɔe.
Akukho lutho olwaswelakalayo: omutsha kumbe omdala, umfana kumbe inkazana, impango kumbe olunye nje ulutho ababeluthethe. UDavida wabuyisa konke.
20 David ƒe amewo kplɔ Amalekitɔwo ƒe lãhawo dzoe eye wogblɔ na David be, “Esiawo katã nye wò ŋutɔ tɔ abe wò fetu ene.”
Wathatha izimvu zonke lenkomo, abantu bakhe baziqhuba ziphambi kwezinye izifuyo, besithi, “Le yimpango kaDavida.”
21 Esi wova ɖo Besor tɔʋu la to la, wodo go woƒe ame alafa eve siwo ŋu ɖeɖi te ale gbegbe be womete ŋu tso tɔʋu la yi kpli wo o. David do gbe na wo dzidzɔtɔe.
Emva kwalokho uDavida wafika ebantwini abangamakhulu amabili ababedinwe kakhulu baze behluleka ukumlandela ababesele emuva eDongeni lwaseBhesori. Baphuma bahlangabeza uDavida kanye labantu ababelaye. Kwathi uDavida esesondela labantu bakhe, wababingelela.
22 Ke gbevu aɖewo nɔ ame siwo de ɖawɔ aʋa la dome gblɔ be, “Ame siawo mede aʋa la kpli mí o eya ta womaxɔ afunyinuwo dometɔ aɖeke o. Ɖe asi le wo srɔ̃wo kple wo viwo ŋu na wo eye nàna woadzo.”
Kodwa bonke abantu ababi labahlokozi bohlupho abaphakathi kwabalandeli bakaDavida, bathi, “Ngenxa yokuthi kabahambanga lathi kasiyikwabelana labo impango esiyithumbileyo. Kodwa yileyo laleyo indoda ingathatha umkayo labantwabayo ihambe.”
23 Ke David gblɔ be, “Ao, nɔvinyewo, manyo nenema o! Yehowa na míele dedie eye míeɖu míaƒe futɔwo dzi.
UDavida waphendula wathi, “Hatshi, bafowethu, akumelanga lenzenjalo ngalokho uThixo asiphe khona. Usivikele wawanikela kithi amabutho abesihlasela.
24 Ame kae alɔ̃ ɖe nya si gblɔm miele la dzi? Míama nuawo eye míama wo sɔsɔe, na ame siwo wɔ aʋa la kple ame siwo dzɔ míaƒe nuwo ŋu.”
Pho ngubani ozalalela lokhu elikutshoyo na? Isabelo somuntu osele lempahla sizafana lesalowo ohambileyo ekulweni impi. Bonke bazakwabelwa ngokufanayo.”
25 Tso gbe ma gbe dzi la, David wɔ numama alea wònye se kple kɔnu na Israelviwo katã va se ɖe egbe.
UDavida wenza lokhu kwaba yisimiso lomthetho ko-Israyeli kusukela ngalelolanga kuze kube yileli.
26 Esi wova ɖo Ziklag la, David ɖo afunyinu siwo woha la ƒe akpa aɖe ɖe Yuda ƒe ametsitsiwo. Eŋlɔ agbalẽ kpe ɖe eŋu be, “Esiawo nye nunana siwo mele ɖoɖom ɖe mi tso afunyinu siwo mekpɔ tso Yehowa ƒe futɔwo gbɔ la me.”
UDavida esefikile eZikhilagi, wathumela enye impango ebadaleni bakoJuda, ababengabangane bakhe, esithi, “Nansi isipho senu esivela empangweni yezitha zikaThixo.”
27 Woɖo nunanawo ɖe ametsitsiwo tso du siawo me: Betel, Dziehe Ramot, Yatir,
