< Samuel 2 6 >

1 David gaƒo ƒu ame tiatia akpe blaetɔ̃ tso Israel dukɔ blibo la me.
UDavida wabuya wabuthanisa bonke abakhethiweyo koIsrayeli, inkulungwane ezingamatshumi amathathu.
2 David kple eƒe ameawo katã dze mɔ tso Baala Yuda be woaɖakɔ Mawu ƒe nubablaɖaka la tso afi ma vɛ. Woyɔa Yehowa Ŋusẽkatãtɔ, ame si le Kerubi siwo le nubablaɖaka la dzi la ƒe ŋkɔ ɖe eŋu.
UDavida wasesukuma wahamba labo bonke abantu ababelaye, besuka eBahala-Juda ukuze benyuse umtshokotsho kaNkulunkulu usuka lapho, obizo lawo libizwa ngebizo leNkosi yamabandla, ehlala phakathi kwamakherubhi phezu kwawo.
3 Wokɔ Mawu ƒe nubablaɖaka la da ɖe tasiaɖam yeye aɖe dzi eye wokɔe tso Abinadab ƒe aƒe si le toa ŋu la me. Ame siwo tutu tasiaɖam la woe nye Abinadab ƒe viŋutsuwo, Uza kple Ahio.
Basebewukhweza umtshokotsho kaNkulunkulu enqoleni entsha, bewukhupha endlini kaAbinadaba eyayiseqaqeni; njalo uUza loAhiyo amadodana kaAbinadaba batshayela leyonqola entsha.
4 Ahio nɔ zɔzɔm le ŋgɔ,
Bayikhipha-ke endlini kaAbinadaba eyayiseqaqeni kanye lomtshokotsho kaNkulunkulu, njalo uAhiyo ehamba phambi komtshokotsho.
5 David kple Israel ƒe aƒe blibo la katã nɔ dzidzɔ kpɔm, nɔ ɣe ɖum kple woƒe ŋusẽ katã le Yehowa ŋkume. Wonɔ ha dzim ɖe saŋkuwo, kasaŋkuwo, gaviwo kple gakogoewo ŋu.
UDavida lendlu yonke yakoIsrayeli basebetshaya phambi kweNkosi ngazo zonke izinto zokutshaya zesihlahla sefiri, langamachacho, langezigubhu zezintambo, langezigujana, langamahlwayi, langezinsimbi ezincencethayo.
6 Esi woɖo Nakon ƒe lugbɔƒe la, Uza do asi ɖa lé Mawu ƒe nubablaɖaka la elabena nyiawo ƒe afɔwo kli nu.
Bathi befika esizeni sikaNakoni, uUza welulelaisandla sakhe emtshokotshweni kaNkulunkulu, wawubamba, ngoba inkabi zakhubeka.
7 Yehowa do dɔmedzoe ɖe Uza ŋu heƒoe ƒu anyi wòku enumake ɖe mabumabu nu si wòwɔ la ta, ale wòku le Mawu ƒe nubablaɖaka la xa.
Intukuthelo yeNkosi yasimvuthela uUza; uNkulunkulu wamtshaya khonapho ngenxa yalesisiphambeko; wasefela khonapho phansi komtshokotsho kaNkulunkulu.
8 David do dɔmedzoe ɖe Yehowa ŋu le nu si wòwɔ Uza la ta eye wòna ŋkɔ teƒe ma be “Perez Uza” si gɔmee nye, “Afi si wodo dɔmedzoe ɖe Uza ŋu le.” Ŋkɔ sia tsi teƒe la ŋu va se ɖe egbe.
UDavida wasethukuthela ngoba iNkosi imfohlele uUza ngesikhala; waseyibiza leyondawo ngokuthi yiPerezi-Uza, kuze kube lamuhla.
9 David vɔ̃ Mawu eye wòbia be “Aleke Yehowa ƒe nubablaɖaka la ava aƒee?”
UDavida waseyesaba iNkosi ngalolosuku, wathi: Umtshokotsho weNkosi uzakuza njani kimi?
10 Nu sia na David ɖo ta me be yemakɔe ayi eɖokui gbɔ le David ƒe Du la me o, eya ta ekɔe yi ɖada ɖe Obed Edom, ame si tso Git la ƒe aƒe me.
Ngakho uDavida kavumanga ukuwudlulisela kuye umtshokotsho weNkosi emzini kaDavida; kodwa uDavida wawuphambulela endlini kaObedi-Edoma umGithi.
11 Yehowa ƒe nubablaɖaka la nɔ afi ma ɣleti etɔ̃ eye Yehowa yra Obed Edom kple eƒe aƒemetɔwo katã.
Umtshokotsho weNkosi wasuhlala endlini kaObedi-Edoma umGithi inyanga ezintathu. INkosi yasimbusisa uObedi-Edoma lendlu yakhe yonke.
12 Esi Fia David se nya sia be, “Yehowa yra Obed Edom ƒe aƒe kple nu siwo katã le esi le Mawu ƒe nubablaɖaka la ta” la, David yi ɖakɔ Mawu ƒe nubablaɖaka la kple aseyetsotso.
Kwasekubikelwa inkosi uDavida kwathiwa: INkosi ibusisile indlu kaObedi-Edoma lakho konke okwakhe ngenxa yomtshokotsho kaNkulunkulu. Ngakho uDavida wasehamba wenyusa umtshokotsho kaNkulunkulu ewususa endlini kaObedi-Edoma, ewusa emzini kaDavida ngentokozo.
13 Ne ame siwo kɔ nubablaɖaka la ɖe afɔ zi ade la, wotɔna, lalana eye David tsɔa nyitsu ɖeka kple alẽvi dami ɖeka saa vɔe.
Kwasekusithi lapho labo abathwele umtshokotsho weNkosi sebehambe izinyathelo eziyisithupha, wahlaba inkabi lokunonisiweyo.
14 David ɖu ɣe kple eƒe ŋusẽ katã le Yehowa ŋkume le esime wòdo awu ʋlaya si wotɔ kple aklala biɖibiɖi.
UDavida wasegida ngamandla wonke phambi kweNkosi; uDavida wayebhince i-efodi yelembu elicolekileyo.
15 Ale Israel kɔ Yehowa ƒe nubablaɖaka la va aƒee kple aseyetsotso kple kpẽkuku geɖe.
Ngokunjalo uDavida lendlu yonke yakoIsrayeli bawenyusa umtshokotsho weNkosi ngokumemeza langokukhala kophondo.
16 Esi Yehowa ƒe nubablaɖaka la va ɖo David ƒe du la me la, Mixal, Saul ƒe vinyɔnu kpɔ Fia David to fesre to wònɔ kpo tim, nɔ ɣe ɖum le Yehowa ŋkume eye Mixal ɖu fewu le David ŋu le eƒe dzime.
Kwasekusithi lapho umtshokotsho weNkosi ungena emzini kaDavida, uMikhali indodakazi kaSawuli walunguza ngewindi, wabona inkosi uDavida eseqa egida phambi kweNkosi; wameyisa enhliziyweni yakhe.
17 Wokɔ Yehowa ƒe nubablaɖaka la da ɖe agbadɔ si David tu nɛ me eye David sa numevɔ kple akpedavɔ na Yehowa.
Basebewungenisa umtshokotsho weNkosi, bawubeka endaweni yawo phakathi kwethente uDavida ayelimisele wona; uDavida wasenikela iminikelo yokutshiswa phambi kweNkosi leminikelo yokuthula.
18 Esi David sa numevɔ kple akpedavɔ vɔ la, eyra ameawo le Yehowa, Dziƒoʋakɔwo ƒe Aƒetɔ la ƒe ŋkɔ me
Kwathi uDavida eseqedile ukunikela iminikelo yokutshiswa leminikelo yokuthula, wabusisa abantu ebizweni leNkosi yamabandla.
19 eye wòtsɔ abolo ɖeka, lãkɔ kple waintsetsebolo na ame sia ame le Israel ƒe ameha blibo la dome, ŋutsuwo kple nyɔnuwo siaa. Ale ame sia ame trɔ yi aƒe me.
Wababela bonke abantu, ixuku lonke lakoIsrayeli, kusukela kwabesilisa kusiya kwabesifazana, ngulowo lalowo iqebelengwana lesinkwa, leqatha lenyama, lesinkwa sezithelo zevini ezonyisiweyo. Basebehamba abantu bonke, ngulowo lalowo emzini wakhe.
20 David hã yi eƒe aƒe me eye wòyra eƒe aƒemetɔwo. Mixal va do goe eye wògblɔ na David fewuɖutɔe be, “Israel fia la de bubu gã aɖe ŋutɔ eɖokui ŋu egbe! Eɖe eɖokui fia nyɔnuviwo le ablɔ dzi abe yakame gbɔlo aɖe ene!”
UDavida wasebuyela ukubusisa indlu yakhe. UMikhali indodakazi kaSawuli wasephuma ukuhlangabeza uDavida, wathi: Idunyiswe kangakanani inkosi yakoIsrayeli lamuhla, ezembule lamuhla phambi kwamehlo encekukazi zenceku zayo njengomunye wabayize ezembula lokuzembula!
21 David ɖo eŋu be, “Yehowa, ame si tiam ɖe fofowò kple eƒe ƒome la teƒe eye wòɖom kplɔlae ɖe Israel, Yehowa ƒe amewo, nu la ŋkumee meɖu ɣe le! Eya ta mele klalo be mawɔ nu abe abunɛtɔ ene ale be maɖe nye dzidzɔkpɔkpɔ le Yehowa me afia.
UDavida wasesithi kuMikhali: Ngaphambi kweNkosi, eyangikhetha phambi kukayihlo laphambi kwendlu yakhe yonke, yangimisa ukuthi ngibe ngumbusi phezu kwabantu beNkosi, phezu kukaIsrayeli; ngakho ngizadlala phambi kweNkosi.
22 Ɛ̃, melɔ̃ be magawɔ ɖokuinye abunɛtɔ gã aɖe wu esia gɔ̃ hã, ke nyɔnuvi siwo ŋu nèƒo nu le la agade bubu ŋunye wu esia.”
Ngisazadeleleka-ke kakhulu kulalokhu, ngehliselwe phansi emehlweni ami; kodwa ngezincekukazi okhulume ngazo, ngizadunyiswa yizo.
23 Ale Mixal tsi ko le eƒe agbemeŋkekewo katã me.
Njalo uMikhali indodakazi kaSawuli kabanga lamntwana kwaze kwaba lusuku lokufa kwakhe.
