Samuel 2 23
1 David ƒe nya mamlɛtɔwoe nye esiawo: “David, Yese ƒe vi le nu ƒom, David, ame si Yehowa, do ɖe dzi, David, Yakob ƒe Mawu ƒe amesiamina, David, Israel ƒe Psalmo viviwo kpala.
La ngamazwi okucina kaDavida: “Umbono kaDavida indodana kaJese, umbono womuntu owaphakanyiswa ngoPhezukonke, umuntu owagcotshwa nguNkulunkulu kaJakhobe, umhlabeleli wezingoma ka-Israyeli:
2 “Yehowa ƒe Gbɔgbɔ ƒo nu to dzinye eye eƒe nya le nye aɖe dzi.
Umoya kaThixo wakhuluma ngami, ilizwi lakhe lalisolimini lwami.
3 Israel ƒe Agakpe la gblɔ nam be, ‘Ame si ɖua dzi kple dzɔdzɔenyenye le mawuvɔvɔ̃ me la,
UNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli wakhuluma, iDwala lika-Israyeli lathi kimi: ‘Lapho umuntu ebusa abantu ngokulunga, lapho ebusa ngokwesaba uNkulunkulu,
4 anɔ abe ŋdikekeli ene, ɣe keklẽ si ŋgɔ lilikpo mexe o si naa gbe mumu dona tso anyigba me le ɣe keklẽ kple tsidzadza megbe ene.’
unjengokukhanya kwekuseni ekuphumeni kwelanga ekuseni okungelamayezi, njengokukhanya emva kokuna kwezulu okumilisa utshani emhlabathini.’
5 “Ɖe nye aƒe mele dzɔdzɔe le Mawu ŋkume oa? Ɖe mebla nu mavɔ si le dedie la kplim oa? Ɛ̃, ebla nu si meʋãna o la kplim. Ɖe mana nye ɖeɖekpɔkpɔ nava eme eye wòana nu sia nu si nye dzi di la, nasu asinye oa?
Indlu yami kayifanelanga kuNkulunkulu na? Kanje kenzanga lami isivumelwano esingapheliyo esalungiswayo saqiniswa izigaba zonke na? Kambe kazukuphumelelisa ukusindiswa kwami angiphe konke engikufisayo na?
6 Ke woaɖe ame vɔ̃ɖiwo katã ɖe aga abe ŋutiwo wonye ene. Ŋuti si womefɔna kple asi o.
Kodwa abantu ababi bonke bazaphoselwa eceleni njengameva, angabuthwayo ngesandla.
7 Ame si di be yeafɔ ŋuti la tsɔa nu lénɛ, ƒoa ƒui, tɔa dzoe le afi si wòƒo ƒui ɖo.”
Loba ngubani othinta ameva usebenzisa insimbi loba uluthi lomkhonto; ayatshiswa ngomlilo khonapho akhona.”
8 Kalẽtɔ xɔŋkɔ etɔ̃ siwo nɔ David ƒe aʋakɔ la me woe nye esiawo: Gbãtɔe nye Yoseb Basebet, tso Tahkemɔn, si wogayɔna be Adino, Eznitɔ la, ame si nye ame etɔ̃awo ƒe tatɔ. Ewu ame alafa enyi kpɔ le aʋakpekpe ɖeka me.
La ngamabizo amaqhawe kaDavida: UJoshebi-Bhasishebethi umThakemoni wayeyinduna yabaThathu, waphakamisela abantu abangamakhulu ayisificaminwembili umkhonto wakhe, ababulalayo ekuhlaseleni kunye.
9 Ame Sesẽ Etɔ̃awo dometɔ eveliae nye Eleazar, Dodai ƒe vi, ame si nye Ahohitɔ. Enɔ ame etɔ̃ siwo kpe ɖe David ŋu wotɔ te Filistitɔwo le Pas Damim esime Israel ƒe aʋawɔla bubuawo katã si la dome.
Yena elandelwa ngu-Eliyazari indodana kaDodo umʼAhohi. Njengomunye wamaqhawe amathathu, wayeloDavida lapho bechothoza amaFilistiya ayebuthanele impi ePhasi Damimi. Lapho-ke abantu bako-Israyeli bahlehlela emuva,
10 Ewu Filistitɔwo va se ɖe esime ɖeɖi te eƒe asi ŋu eye magate ŋu alé yi o; Yehowa na dziɖuɖu gã aɖee. Aʋawɔla mamlɛawo megatrɔ gbɔ o va se ɖe esime ɣeyiɣi ɖo hena afunyinuwo haha!
kodwa yena wajama wawacakazela phansi amaFilistiya isandla sakhe saze sadinwa sanamathela enkembeni. Ngalelolanga uThixo waletha ukunqoba okukhulu. Amabutho abuyela ku-Eleyazari ukuyahlubula abafileyo kuphela nje.
11 Ame si kplɔe ɖo lae nye Sama, Agee ƒe vi, tso Harar. Gbe ɖeka le aʋakpekpe aɖe kple Filistitɔwo me le teƒe aɖe si bli le fũu eye Israel ƒe aʋawɔlawo katã si la,
Phansi kwakhe kwakuloShama indodana ka-Ageye umHarari. Kwathi amaFilistiya eseqoqene endaweni eyayilezindumba ezinengi, amabutho ako-Israyeli awabalekela.
12 Sama ɖeka tɔ ɖe bligble la titina eye wòxɔe hewu Filistitɔwo. Yehowa na wòɖu dzi gã aɖe.
Kodwa uShama wajama phakathi kwensimu. Wayivikela wawacakazela phansi amaFilistiya, uThixo waletha ukunqoba okukhulu.
13 Gbe ɖeka, esime David nɔ agado me le Adulam eye Filistitɔwo ƒe aʋawɔlawo nɔ Refaim balime la, ame etɔ̃ tso Israelviwo ƒe aʋafia xɔŋkɔtɔ blaetɔ̃ me yi ɖakpɔe ɖa le nuŋeɣi.
Ngesikhathi sokuvuna, abathathu ezinduneni ezingamatshumi amathathu baya kuDavida ebhalwini lwase-Adulami, lapho ibutho lamaFilistiya lalimise eSigodini saseRefayi.
14 David nɔ mɔ la me eye Filistitɔwo ƒe aʋakɔ ɖo Betlehem le ɣe ma ɣi.
Ngalesosikhathi uDavida wayesenqabeni, iviyo lamabutho amaFilistiya laliseBhethilehema.
15 David gblɔ kple didi be, “Tsikɔ le wunyem vevie. Oo, ne ame aɖe aku tsi tso vudo si le Betlehem ƒe agbo nu la me vɛ nam la, anyo ŋutɔ.”
UDavida womela amanzi wasesithi, “Oh, sengathi kungaba lomuntu ongangikhela amanzi okunatha emthonjeni oseduze lesango laseBhethilehema!”
16 Ale aʋafia etɔ̃ siawo to Filistitɔwo dome, ku tsi tso vudo si te ɖe Betlehem ƒe agbo ŋu me yi na David. Ke David gbe meno tsi la o, ke boŋ etrɔe kɔ ɖi le Yehowa ƒe ŋkume,
Ngakho amaqhawe amathathu adabula phakathi kwamaviyo amaFilistiya, akha amanzi emthonjeni eduze lesango laseBhethilehema ahamba lawo kuDavida. Kodwa wala ukuwanatha, esikhundleni salokho wawathela phambi kukaThixo.
17 hegblɔ be, “Yehowa, nyemate ŋu awɔ esia gbeɖe o!” “Esiae nye ame etɔ̃ siwo tsɔ woƒe agbe ke la ƒe ʋu.”
Wathi, “Akungenzeki, Oh Thixo, ukuba ngenze lokhu. Akusigazi labantu abahambe befake ukuphila kwabo engozini na?” UDavida kawanathanga. Lezi zaziyizenzo zobuqhawe zalawomabutho womathathu.
18 Abisai, Yoab nɔvi, Zeruya vi nye amegã na ame etɔ̃awo. Etsɔ eƒe akplɔ wu futɔ alafa etɔ̃ kpɔ ale wòxɔ ŋkɔ abe ame etɔ̃awo ene.
U-Abhishayi umfowabo kaJowabi indodana kaZeruya wayeyinduna yabaThathu labo. Waphakamisela umkhonto wakhe phezu kwabangamakhulu amathathu, ababulalayo, ngakho waba lodumo njengabaThathu.
19 Ɖe womede bubu eŋu wu ame xɔŋkɔ etɔ̃awo oa? Ezu woƒe kplɔla togbɔ be womebui ɖe wo dome o hã.
Kahlonitshwanga kakhulu kulabaThathu na? Waba ngumlawuli wabo, loba engazange abe phakathi kwabo.
20 Benaya Yehoiada ƒe vi, ame si fofo nye aʋawɔla kalẽtɔ aɖe tso Kabzeel la wu ame dzɔtsu xɔŋkɔ eve siwo nɔ Moab nyigba dzi. Emegbe la, egawu dzata le do aɖe me gbe si gbe sno dza.
UBhenaya indodana kaJehoyada wayeliqhawe elilesibindi laseKhabhizeli, elenza izenzo zobuqhawe obukhulu. Wabulala amaqhawe amaMowabi amabili ayezintshantshu ekulweni. Wake wangena emgodini wabulala isilwane mhla kulongqwaqwane.
21 Le ɣeyiɣi bubu hã la, ewu Egiptetɔ aɖe. Togbɔ be Egiptetɔ la lé akplɔ ɖe asi hã la, Benaya lũ ɖe edzi kple kpo, dui le esi eye wòtsɔ Egiptetɔ la ŋutɔ ƒe akplɔ wui.
Njalo wabulala umGibhithe owayemkhulu kakhulu. Lanxa umGibhithe lowo wayephethe umkhonto, uBhenaya wamhlasela ngenduku. Wawuhluthuna umkhonto esandleni somGibhithe wambulala ngomkhonto wakhe.
22 Nu siawoe Benaya, Yehoiada ƒe vi wɔ. Eya hã xɔ ŋkɔ abe ame sesẽ etɔ̃awo ene.
Lezi zaziyizenzo zobuqhawe zikaBhenaya indodana kaJehoyada; laye futhi wayedume njengamaqhawe amathathu.
23 Wobunɛ wu ame xɔŋkɔ Blaetɔ̃awo dometɔ ɖe sia ɖe gake womedee ame Etɔ̃awo dome o. Ke David tsɔe ɖo eŋudzɔlawo nu.
Wayehlonitshwa kakhulu ukwedlula bonke abangamaTshumi Amathathu, kodwa wayengabalwa kanye labaThathu. UDavida wambeka ukuba abe ngumphathi wabalindi bakhe.
