Samuel 2 24

1 Yehowa gado dziku ɖe Israel ŋu eye wòna be David tso ɖe wo ŋu gblɔ na wo be, “Miyi miaxlẽ ame siwo le Israel kple Yuda.”

Nthawi inanso Yehova anawakwiyira Aisraeli ndipo anawutsa mtima wa Davide kuti awavutitse ndipo anati, “Pita kawerenge Aisraeli ndi Ayuda.”

2 Ale fia la dɔ Aʋafia Yoab kple aʋafia bubuwo eye wògblɔ na wo be, “Miyi ne miatsa le Israel ƒe toawo katã me tso Dan va se ɖe Beerseba eye miaŋlɔ ŋutsu siwo ate ŋu awɔ aʋa la ƒe ŋkɔ ne manya woƒe xexlẽme.”

Choncho mfumu inati kwa Yowabu pamodzi ndi atsogoleri a ankhondo amene anali nawo. “Pitani pakati pa mafuko onse a Israeli kuyambira ku Dani mpaka ku Beeriseba kuti mukawerenge anthu omenya nkhondo ndi cholinga choti ndidziwe chiwerengero chawo.”

3 Ke Yoab ɖo eŋu na fia la be, “Yehowa, wò Mawu la nadzi wò aʋakɔwo ɖe edzi zi alafa eye wòana be nye aƒetɔ, fia la ƒe ŋkuwo nakpɔ esia gake nu ka ŋuti nye aƒetɔ, fia la di be yeawɔ nu sia ɖo?”

Koma Yowabu anayankha mfumu kuti, “Yehova Mulungu wanu achulukitse ankhondo anu kukhala miyandamiyanda, ndipo alole inu mbuye wanga mfumu mudzazione zimenezi. Koma nʼchifukwa chiyani inu mbuye wanga mfumu mukufuna kuchita zimenezi?”

4 Ke fia la ƒe nya ɖu Yoab kple aʋafia bubuawo tɔ dzi ale wodzo le fia la ŋkume be woaɖaŋlɔ ŋutsu siwo katã ate ŋu ayi aʋa le Israel la ƒe ŋkɔ.

Komabe mawu a mfumu anapambana mawu a Yowabu ndi atsogoleri a ankhondo. Choncho anachoka pamaso pa mfumu kupita kukawerenga anthu omenya nkhondo mu Israeli.

5 Esi wotso Yɔdan tɔsisi la vɔ la, woƒu asaɖa anyi ɖe Aroer gbɔ le du si le balime la ƒe dziehe gome eye wozɔ to Gad va ɖo Yazer.

Atawoloka Yorodani, iwo anamanga misasa yawo pafupi ndi Aroeri kummwera kwa mzinda wa ku chigwa ndipo kenaka iwo anapita ku dziko la Gadi mpaka ku Yazeri.

6 Tso afi ma woyi Gilead le Tatimhodsinyigba dzi heyi Dan Yaan eye woƒo xlã yi Sidon.

Iwo anapita ku Giliyadi ndi ku chigwa cha Tahitimu Hodisi ndipo anapitirira mpaka ku Dani Yaani ndi madera ozungulira Sidoni.

7 Tso afi ma woyi Tiro mɔ la me kple Hivitɔwo kple Kanaantɔwo ƒe duwo katã me. Mlɔeba la, woyi Beerseba le Yuda ƒe gbegbe.

Kenaka iwo anapita molunjika linga la ku Turo ndi ku mizinda yonse ya Ahivi ndi Akanaani. Pomaliza anapita ku Beeriseba ku Negevi wa ku Yuda.

8 Esi wotsa le anyigba blibo la dzi vɔ la, wotrɔ gbɔ va Yerusalem, esi wotsa le ɣleti asiekɛ kple ŋkeke blaeve kple vɔwo megbe.

Atayendayenda mʼdziko lonse anabwerera ku Yerusalemu patapita miyezi isanu ndi inayi ndi masiku makumi awiri.

9 Yoab gblɔ na fia la be ŋutsu siwo tsi na aʋayiyi la le ame akpe alafa enyi le Israel eye wole akpe alafa atɔ̃ le Yuda.

Yowabu anapereka chiwerengero cha anthu ankhondo kwa mfumu: Mu Israeli munali anthu 800,000 amphamvu amene amadziwa kugwiritsa ntchito lupanga ndipo mu Yuda munali anthu 500,000.

10 David ƒe dzitsinya ɖe fu nɛ esi wòna woxlẽ ame siwo ate ŋu ayi aʋa la vɔ. Tete wògblɔ na Yehowa be, “Mewɔ nu vɔ̃ gã aɖe le nu si mewɔ la ta. Oo Yehowa, azɔ la meɖe kuku na wò, ɖe wò dɔla ƒe vodada ɖa elabena mewɔ bometsinu gã aɖe.”

Davide anatsutsika mu mtima mwake atatha kuwerenga anthuwo ndipo anapemphera kwa Yehova kuti, “Ine ndachimwa kwambiri pa zimene ndachita. Tsono Yehova, ndikupempha kuti mukhululuke kulakwa kwa mtumiki wanu. Ine ndachita zopusa kwambiri.”

11 Hafi David nafɔ le ŋdi la, Yehowa ƒe gbe va na Nyagblɔɖila Gad, David ƒe nukpɔla be,

Davide asanadzuke mmawa mwake mawu a Yehova anafika kwa mneneri Gadi, mlosi wa Davide kuti,

12 “Yi nàgblɔ na David be, ‘Ale Yehowa gblɔe nye esi: mele nu etɔ̃ ɖom ŋkuwò me. Tia wo dometɔ ɖeka esi mawɔ ɖe ŋutiwò.’”

“Pita ukamuwuze Davide kuti, ‘Yehova akuti, Ine ndikukupatsa zinthu zitatu izi. Usankhepo chimodzi pa zimenezi choti ndikuchitire.’”

13 Gad yi David gbɔ eye wòbiae be, “Ɖe nàtia be dɔwuame nava anyigba dzi ƒe adre loo, alo nàsi le wò futɔwo nu ɣleti etɔ̃ loo, alo dɔvɔ̃ nava anyigba la dzi ŋkeke etɔ̃a? Bu nu siawo ŋu nyuie eye nàna manya ŋuɖoɖo si mana ame si dɔm la.”

Choncho Gadi anapita kwa Davide ndipo anati kwa iye, “Kodi mungakonde kuti mʼdziko mwanu mukhale njala kwa zaka zitatu? Kapena kuti mukhale mukuthawa adani anu kwa miyezi itatu? Kapena kuti mʼdziko muno mukhale mliri kwa masiku atatu? Tsopano, ganizirani bwino ndipo musankhe chomwe mudzamuyankhe amene wandituma.”

14 David gblɔ na Gad be, “Meɖo xaxa gã aɖe me. Na míadze Yehowa ƒe asi me le eƒe nublanuikpɔkpɔ sɔ gbɔ la ta, ke mègana madze amegbetɔ ƒe asi me o.”

Davide anati kwa Gadi, “Ine ndavutika kwambiri mu mtima mwanga. Ife atilange ndi Yehova pakuti chifundo chake ndi chachikulu, koma ndisalangidwe ndi anthu.”

15 Ale Yehowa na dɔvɔ̃ va Israelnyigba dzi ŋdi ma; enɔ anyi va se ɖe ɣeyiɣi si wòɖo nɛ eye ame akpe blaadre ku le dukɔ la me, tso Dan va se ɖe Beerseba.

Choncho Yehova anabweretsa mliri pa Aisraeli, kuyambira mmawa mpaka pa nthawi imene anafuna mwini wake, ndipo unapha anthu 70,000 kuyambira ku Dani mpaka ku Beeriseba.

16 Esi mawudɔla la do eƒe asi ɖa be yeatsrɔ̃ Yerusalem la, dzɔgbevɔ̃e la ve Yehowa eye wògblɔ na mawudɔla si le nu gblẽm le ameawo dome la be, “Enyo gbɔ! Ɖe wò asi ɖa.” Yehowa ƒe dɔla la ɖo Arauna, Yebusitɔ la ƒe lugbɔƒe le ɣe ma ɣi me.

Pamene mngelo anatambasula dzanja lake kuti awononge Yerusalemu, Yehova anamva chisoni chifukwa cha zowawazo ndipo anati kwa mngelo amene ankawononga anthu uja, “Basi kwakwanira! Leka kuwononga.” Nthawi imeneyo mngelo wa Yehova anali atayima pamalo opunthira tirigu a Arauna Myebusi.

17 David kpɔ mawudɔla la eye wògblɔ na Yehowa be, “Kpɔ ɖa, nyee nye ame si wɔ nu vɔ̃! Nu ka alẽ siawo ya wɔ? Na wò dɔmedzoe nabi ɖe nye kple nye ƒometɔwo ɖeɖe ko ŋuti.”

Davide ataona mngelo amene ankakantha anthu uja, anati kwa Yehova, “Ine ndi amene ndachimwa. Ine mʼbusa ndiye ndachita zoyipa. Anthuwa ali ngati nkhosa zosalakwa. Kodi iwowa achita chiyani? Langani ineyo pamodzi ndi banja langa.”

18 Nyagblɔɖila Gad va David gbɔ gbe ma gbe eye wògblɔ nɛ be, “Yi nàtu vɔsamlekpui aɖe na Yehowa le Arauna, Yebusitɔ la ƒe lugbɔƒe.”

Tsiku limenelo Gadi anapita kwa Davide ndi kukanena kuti, “Pitani kamangeni guwa lansembe la Yehova pamalo opunthira tirigu a Arauna Myebusi.”

19 David yi be yeawɔ nu si Yehowa to Gad dzi gblɔ nɛ.

Ndipo Davide anapita monga momwe Yehova anamulamulira kudzera mwa Gadi.

20 Esi Arauna kpɔ fia la kple eŋumewo gbɔna egbɔ la, eyi hede ta agu tsyɔ mo anyi ɖe fia la ŋkume.

Arauna atayangʼana ndi kuona mfumu ndi anthu ake akubwera kumene kunali iye, iyeyo anatuluka ndi kuwerama pamaso pa mfumu mpaka nkhope yake kugunda pansi.

21 Ebia wo be, “Nu ka wɔ ge mieva?” David ɖo eŋu be, “Míeva be míaƒle wò lugbɔƒea eye matu vɔsamlekpui aɖe na Yehowa ɖe afi sia ale be wòana dɔvɔ̃ la nu natso.”

Arauna anati, “Nʼchifukwa chiyani mbuye wanga mfumu mwabwera kwa mtumiki wanu?” Davide anayankha kuti, “Kudzagula malo ako opunthira tirigu kuti ndimangire Yehova guwa lansembe kuti mliri uli pa anthuwa usiye.”

22 Arauna gblɔ na David be, “Nye aƒetɔ fia, wɔ nu sia nu si hiã wò la ŋu dɔ faa. Nyitsuwoe nye esiawo na numevɔsa; àte ŋu awɔ lugbɔnuwo kple nyitsuwo ƒe kɔkutiwo ŋu dɔ hena dzododo ɖe vɔsamlekpui la dzi.

Arauna anati kwa Davide, “Mbuye wanga mfumu mutenge chilichonse chimene chikukondweretseni ndi kuchipereka nsembe. Nazi ngʼombe zazimuna za nsembe yopsereza, nazi zopunthira tirigu ndi magoli angʼombe kuti zikhale nkhuni.

23 Matsɔ wo katã na wò faa. Yehowa, wò Mawu la naxɔ wò vɔsa.”

Inu mfumu, Arauna akupereka zonsezi kwa inu mfumu.” Arauna anatinso kwa iye, “Yehova Mulungu wanu akuvomerezeni.”

24 Ke Fia David gblɔ na Arauna be, “Ao, nyemaxɔ nu siawo abe nunanawo ene o, elabena nyemedi be masa numevɔ la na Yehowa, nye Mawu la kple nu siwo ta nyemexe fe aɖeke ɖo o.” Ale David xe klosaloga blaatɔ̃ nɛ ɖe lugbɔƒe la kple nyitsuawo ta.

Koma mfumu inayankha Arauna kuti, “Ayi, Ine ndikunenetsa kuti ndikulipira. Sindidzapereka kwa Yehova Mulungu wanga nsembe yopsereza imene sindinavutikire.” Kotero Davide anagula malo wopunthira tiriguwo ndi ngʼombe ndipo anapereka kwa Araunayo masekeli asiliva makumi asanu.

25 David ɖi vɔsamlekpui ɖe afi ma na Yehowa eye wòsa numevɔ kple akpedavɔ. Yehowa se eƒe gbedodoɖa eye wòna dɔvɔ̃ la nu tso.

Davide anamanga guwa lansembe la Yehova pamenepo ndipo anaperekapo nsembe zopsereza ndi nsembe zachiyanjano. Ndipo Yehova anayankha pempherolo mʼmalo mwa dziko lonse, ndipo mliri unatha pa Aisraeli.
