1 Na rĩrĩ, Joabu mũrũ wa Zeruia nĩamenyete atĩ ngoro ya mũthamaki nĩyeriragĩria kuona Abisalomu.
Yowabu mwana wa Zeruya anadziwa kuti maganizo a mfumu ali pa Abisalomu.
2 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, Joabu agĩtũma mũndũ athiĩ Tekoa akagĩĩre mũndũ-wa-nja warĩ mũũgĩ, areehwo kuuma kũu. Akĩĩra mũndũ-wa-nja ũcio atĩrĩ, “Wĩtue atĩ nĩũracakaya. Wĩhumbe nguo cia macakaya, na ndũkehake maguta o na marĩkũ. Wĩtue ta mũndũ-wa-nja ũikarĩte matukũ maingĩ akĩrĩrĩra mũndũ mũkuũ.
Kotero Yowabu anatuma munthu wina kupita ku Tekowa ndi kukatengako mkazi wanzeru. Yowabu anati kwa mkaziyo, “Ukhale ngati namfedwa. Uvale zovala zaumasiye ndipo usadzole mafuta ena aliwonse. Ukhale ngati mkazi amene wakhala akulira masiku ambiri.
3 Ũcooke ũthiĩ kũrĩ mũthamaki ũmwarĩrie ciugo ici.” Nake Joabu akĩmwĩra ũrĩa ekuuga.
Kenaka upite kwa mfumu ndipo ukayankhule mawu awa.” Ndipo Yowabu anamuwuza mawu oti akanene.
4 Rĩrĩa mũndũ-wa-nja ũcio wa kuuma Tekoa aathiire kũrĩ mũthamaki, akĩĩgũithia, agĩturumithia ũthiĩ thĩ nĩguo amũhe gĩtĩĩo, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Wee mũthamaki, ndeithia!”
Mkazi wochokera ku Tekowa uja atapita kwa mfumu anadzigwetsa pansi, napereka ulemu kwa mfumu nati, “Thandizeni mfumu!”
5 Nake mũthamaki akĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Nĩ kĩĩ kĩragũthĩĩnia?” Nake akiuga atĩrĩ, “Ti-itherũ niĩ ndĩ mũndũ-wa-nja wa ndigwa; mũthuuri wakwa nĩakuĩte.
Mfumu inamufunsa kuti, “Kodi chikukusautsa iwe nʼchiyani?” Iye anayankha kuti, “Ine ndine mkazi wamasiye, mwamuna wanga anamwalira.
6 Niĩ ndungata yaku ndĩrarĩ na ariũ eerĩ. Nao maroogitana me mũgũnda, na harakĩaga mũndũ hau wa kũmateithũrana. Ũmwe aragũtha ũrĩa ũngĩ na aramũũraga.
Ine wantchito wanu ndinali ndi ana aamuna awiri. Iwo anayamba kumenyana mʼmunda, ndipo panalibe woti awaleretse. Wina anakantha mnzakeyo mpaka kumupha.
7 Na rĩrĩ, mũhĩrĩga wothe nĩũũkĩrĩire ndungata yaku; ũkoiga atĩrĩ, ‘Tũnengere mũndũ ũrĩa ũragĩte mũrũ wa nyina, nĩgeetha tũmũũrage nĩ ũndũ wa muoyo wa mũrũ wa nyina ũrĩa ooragĩte; tũkĩniine mũgai o nake.’ Nao mangĩĩka ũguo no mahorie ikara rĩrĩa rĩraakana, na no rĩo riiki ndigairie, maniine rĩĩtwa rĩa mũthuuri wakwa, o na maniine njiaro ciake gũkũ thĩ.”
Tsono banja lonse landiwukira ine, wantchito wanu. Iwo akuti, ‘Utipatse mwana amene anakantha mʼbale wakeyo kuti timuphe chifukwa cha moyo wa mʼbale wake amene anaphedwayo. Ife tidzaphanso mlowamʼmalo.’ Anthuwo adzapha mwana wanga amene wanditsalira, ndipo dzina la mwamuna wanga silidzakumbukika pakuti sipadzakhalanso mwana pa banja lathu.”
8 Nake mũthamaki akĩĩra mũndũ-wa-nja ũcio atĩrĩ, “Inũka, na nĩngũruta watho nĩ ũndũ waku.”
Mfumu inati kwa mkaziyo, “Pitani ku nyumba kwanu ndipo ine ndidzalamula mʼmalo mwanu.”
9 No mũndũ-wa-nja ũcio wa Tekoa akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Mũthamaki mwathi wakwa, reke ũũru ũcio ũnjookerere hamwe na nyũmba ya baba, na ũreke wee mũthamaki na gĩtĩ gĩaku gĩa ũthamaki wage gũcookererwo nĩ ũũru o na ũrĩkũ.”
Koma mkazi wochokera ku Tekowayo anati kwa mfumu, “Mbuye wanga mfumu, kulakwa kukhale pa ine ndi banja la abambo anga ndipo mfumu ndi mpando wanu waufumu mukhale osalakwa.”
10 Nake mũthamaki agĩcookia atĩrĩ, “Mũndũ o na ũ angĩkwĩra ũndũ o na ũrĩkũ, mũrehe kũrĩ niĩ, nake ndagacooka gũgũthĩĩnia rĩngĩ.”
Mfumu inayankha kuti, “Ngati wina aliyense anene kanthu kwa iwe, umubweretse kwa ine, ndipo sadzakuvutitsanso.”
11 Nake mũndũ-wa-nja ũcio akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Reke mũthamaki agwete rĩĩtwa rĩa Jehova Ngai wake, nĩguo agirĩrĩrie mũrĩhĩria wa thakame ndakae kũũragana rĩngĩ, nĩgeetha mũriũ wakwa ndakae kũũragwo.” Nake mũthamaki akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Ti-itherũ o ta ũrĩa Jehova atũũraga muoyo-rĩ, gũtirĩ rũcuĩrĩ o na rũmwe rwa mũtwe wa mũrũguo rũkũgũa thĩ.”
Mkaziyo anati, “Mfumu ipemphe kwa Yehova Mulungu wake kuti aletse wobwezera imfa asaphenso wina kuti mwana wanga asawonongedwe.” Mfumu inati, “Pali Yehova wamoyo ngakhale tsitsi limodzi la pamutu pa mwana wako silidzathotholedwa.”
12 Ningĩ mũndũ-wa-nja ũcio akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Reke ndungata yaku ĩkwĩre kiugo wee mũthamaki, mwathi wakwa.” Nake agĩcookia atĩrĩ, “Kĩarie.”
Kenaka mkaziyo anati, “Lolani kuti wantchito wanu ayankhule mawu kwa inu mbuye wanga mfumu.” Iye anayankha kuti, “Yankhula.”
13 Mũndũ-wa-nja ũcio akĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Nĩ kĩĩ gĩtũmĩte wee ũthondeke ũndũ ta ũyũ wa gũũkĩrĩra andũ a Ngai? Rĩrĩa mũthamaki oiga ũguo-rĩ, githĩ tiwe wĩtuĩrĩire ciira, nĩgũkorwo mũthamaki ndacooketie mũriũ wake ũrĩa mũingate mũciĩ?
Mkaziyo anati, “Nʼchiyani tsono chimene mwaganiza kuchitira zimenezi anthu a Mulungu? Pamene mfumu yanena izi, kodi sikudzitsutsa yokha, pakuti mfumu sinayitanitse mwana amene anamupirikitsa?
14 Ta ũrĩa maaĩ maitĩkaga thĩ, marĩa matangĩoeka-rĩ, no taguo arĩ o nginya ithuĩ tũkue. No Ngai ndarutaga mũndũ muoyo; handũ ha gwĩka ũguo-rĩ, athondekaga njĩra nĩgeetha mũndũ ũrĩa mũingate ndakae gũtũũra ta ateetwo biũ agathengio harĩ we.
Koma poti madzi akatayika sawoleka, ndiye tonsefe tiyenera kufa ndithu. Koma Mulungu safuna kuti moyo wa munthu utayike kotero anakonza njira yakuti wopirikitsidwayo asakhale wotayikiratu.
15 “Na rĩrĩ, njũkĩte gũkwĩra ũhoro ũyũ wee mũthamaki mwathi wakwa tondũ andũ nĩmatũmĩte niĩ ndĩtigĩre. Ndungata yaku ĩciirĩtie atĩrĩ, ‘Niĩ nĩngwarĩria mũthamaki; no gũkorwo nĩegwĩka ũrĩa ndungata yake ĩkũmũũria;
“Tsopano ine ndabwera kudzanena izi kwa inu mbuye wanga mfumu chifukwa anthu andichititsa mantha. Mdzakazi wanu anaganiza kuti, ‘Ndikayankhula kwa mfumu, mwina adzachita zimene mdzakazi wake adzamupempha.
16 no gũkorwo mũthamaki nĩegwĩtĩkĩra kũhonokia ndungata yake kuuma guoko-inĩ kwa mũndũ ũrĩa ũrageria gũtũniina niĩ hamwe na mũriũ wakwa, matweherie kuuma kũrĩ igai rĩrĩa twaheirwo nĩ Ngai.’
Mwina mfumu idzavomereza kupulumutsa mdzakazi wake mʼdzanja la munthu amene akufuna kupha ine pamodzi ndi mwana wanga kutichotsa pa cholowa chimene Mulungu anatipatsa.’
17 “Na rĩrĩ, ndungata yaku ĩgũkwĩra atĩrĩ, ‘Kiugo gĩaku mũthamaki mwathi wakwa kĩrondeehere ũhurũko, nĩgũkorwo mũthamaki mwathi wakwa ahaana ta mũraika wa Ngai wa gũkũũrana wega na ũũru. Jehova Ngai waku aroikara nawe.’”
“Ndipo tsopano mtumiki wanu akuti, ‘Lolani mawu a mbuye wanga mfumu abweretse mpumulo kwa ine, pakuti mbuye wanga mfumu ali ngati mngelo wa Mulungu pozindikira chabwino ndi choyipa. Yehova Mulungu wanu akhale nanu.’”
18 Hĩndĩ ĩyo mũthamaki akĩĩra mũndũ-wa-nja ũcio atĩrĩ, “Ndũkaahithe ũndũ o wothe ũrĩa ngũkũũria.” Nake mũndũ-wa-nja ũcio akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Mũthamaki mwathi wakwa nĩakĩarie.”
Kenaka mfumu inati kwa mkaziyo, “Usandibisire chilichonse pondiyankha chimene ndidzakufunsa.” Mkaziyo anati, “Mbuye wanga mfumu yankhulani.”
19 Nake mũthamaki akĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Githĩ mũtinyiitanĩire na Joabu ũhoro-inĩ ũyũ wothe?” Nake mũndũ-wa-nja akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Ti-itherũ o ta ũrĩa ũtũũraga muoyo, wee mũthamaki mwathi wakwa, gũtirĩ mũndũ ũngĩĩhũgũra mwena wa ũrĩo kana wa ũmotho, aregane na ũndũ o wothe ũrĩa mũthamaki mwathi wakwa angiuga. Ĩĩ nĩguo, nĩ ndungata yaku Joabu yanjĩĩrire njĩke ũndũ ũyũ, na nĩwe wĩkĩrĩte ciugo ici ciothe kanua-inĩ ka ndungata yaku.
Mfumu inafunsa kuti, “Kodi zimenezi sukuchita motsogozedwa ndi Yowabu?” Mkaziyo anayankha kuti, “Pali inu wamoyo, mbuye wanga mfumu, palibe munthu angakhotere kumanja kapena kumanzere pa chilichonse chimene mbuye wanga mfumu mwanena. Inde, ndi mtumiki wanu Yowabu amene wandilangiza ine kuchita zimenezi ndipo ndi amene anandipatsa mawu onsewa woti ine mtumiki wanu ndiyankhule.
20 Nake Joabu, ndungata yaku nĩwe wĩkĩte ũguo nĩgeetha agarũre ũndũ ũrĩa ũrĩ ho ihinda rĩĩrĩ. Mwathi wakwa arĩ ũũgĩ ta wa mũraika wa Ngai; nĩamenyaga ũndũ wothe ũrĩa wĩkĩkaga bũrũri-inĩ.”
Mtumiki wanu Yowabu anachita zimenezi kuti asinthe mmene zinthu zilili lero. Mbuye wanga muli ndi nzeru ngati za mngelo wa Mulungu. Mumadziwa zonse zimene zikuchitika mʼdziko.”
21 Mũthamaki akĩĩra Joabu atĩrĩ, “Nĩ wega, nĩngwĩka ũguo. Thiĩ, ũcookie mwanake ũcio ti Abisalomu.”
Mfumu inati kwa Yowabu, “Chabwino, ine ndichita zimenezi. Pita kamutenge Abisalomuyo.”
22 Joabu akĩĩgũithia aturumithĩtie ũthiũ thĩ nĩguo amũhe gĩtĩĩo, na akĩrathima mũthamaki. Joabu akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Ũmũthĩ ndungata yaku nĩyamenya atĩ nĩĩrĩkĩtie gwĩtĩkĩrĩka maitho-inĩ maku mũthamaki mwathi wakwa, tondũ mũthamaki nĩetĩkĩrĩte ihooya rĩa ndungata yake.”
Yowabu anawerama pansi kupereka ulemu kwa mfumu. Yowabuyo anati, “Lero mtumiki wanu wadziwa kuti wapeza chifundo pamaso panu, mbuye wanga mfumu, chifukwa mwavomera pempho lakeli.”
23 Hĩndĩ ĩyo Joabu agĩthiĩ Geshuru, na agĩcookia Abisalomu Jerusalemu.
Choncho Yowabu anapita ku Gesuri ndipo anamubweretsa Abisalomu ku Yerusalemu.
24 Nowe mũthamaki akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “No nginya athiĩ mũciĩ gwake mwene; ndakarekwo oone ũthiũ wakwa.” Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Abisalomu agĩthiĩ mũciĩ gwake na ndaigana kuona ũthiũ wa mũthamaki.
Koma mfumu inati, “Iye apite ku nyumba yake; asaone nkhope yanga.” Kotero Abisalomu anapita ku nyumba yake ndipo sanakumane ndi mfumu.
25 Thĩinĩ wa Isiraeli guothe gũtiarĩ mũndũ ũngĩ o na ũmwe waganagwo gũthakara ta Abisalomu. Kuuma rũcuĩrĩ rwake rwa mũtwe nginya nyarĩrĩ ciake ndaarĩ na kameni.
Mʼdziko lonse la Israeli munalibe munthu amene anayamikidwa chifukwa cha maonekedwe ake wokongola ngati Abisalomu. Kuyambira kumutu mpaka ku mapazi ake, analibe chilema.
26 Rĩrĩa rĩothe eenjaga njuĩrĩ cia mũtwe wake, nĩenjagwo o mwaka wathira rĩrĩa njuĩrĩ yamũritũhĩra mũno, angĩamĩthimire, ũritũ wayo wakoragwo ũrĩ cekeri magana meerĩ, kũringana na gĩthimi kĩa mũthamaki.
Nthawi ina iliyonse akamameta tsitsi lake, ankameta pamene layamba kumulemera. Akatero amaliyeza, ndipo limalemera makilogalamu awiri pa sikelo yaufumu.
27 Nake Abisalomu nĩaciarire aanake atatũ na mũirĩtu ũmwe. Nake mwarĩ eetagwo Tamaru, na aarĩ mũndũ-wa-nja mũthaka.
Abisalomu anali ndi ana aamuna atatu ndi wamkazi mmodzi. Mwana wamkazi dzina lake linali Tamara, ndipo anali mkazi wokongola kwambiri.
28 Abisalomu aatũũrire mĩaka ĩĩrĩ Jerusalemu atarĩ oona ũthiũ wa mũthamaki.
Abisalomu anakhala zaka ziwiri mu Yerusalemu osaonekera kwa mfumu.
29 Ningĩ Abisalomu agĩtũmanĩra Joabu nĩguo amũtũme kũrĩ mũthamaki, no Joabu akĩrega gũthiĩ kũrĩ we. Ningĩ akĩmũtũmanĩra riita rĩa keerĩ, no akĩrega gũthiĩ.
Kenaka Abisalomu anatumiza mawu kwa Yowabu, kumutuma kuti apite kwa mfumu, koma Yowabu anakana kubwera. Kotero anatumizanso mawu kachiwiri, koma Yowabu anakananso.
30 Hĩndĩ ĩyo akĩĩra ndungata ciake atĩrĩ, “Atĩrĩrĩ, mũgũnda wa Joabu ũhakanĩte na wakwa, na arĩ na cairi kuo. Thiĩi mũmĩcine na mwaki.” Nĩ ũndũ ũcio ndungata cia Abisalomu ikĩgwatia mũgũnda ũcio mwaki ũkĩhĩa.
Tsono Abisalomu anati kwa antchito ake, “Taonani, munda wa Yowabu uli pafupi ndi wanga ndipo muli barele mʼmenemo. Pitani mukawutenthe mundawo.” Ndipo antchito a Abisalomu anawutentha mundawo.
31 Hĩndĩ ĩyo Joabu agĩthiĩ mũciĩ kwa Abisalomu, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Nĩ kĩĩ gĩatũma ndungata ciaku icine mũgũnda wakwa?”
Ndipo Yowabu anapita ku nyumba ya Abisalomu ndipo anati kwa iye, “Nʼchifukwa chiyani antchito ako atentha munda wanga?”
32 Nake Abisalomu akĩĩra Joabu atĩrĩ, “Ndagũtũmanĩire, ngĩkwĩra atĩrĩ, ‘Ũka, nĩguo ngũtũme kwa mũthamaki, ũkamũũrie atĩrĩ, “Nĩ kĩĩ gĩatũmire nyume Geshuru? Ũngĩrĩ ũndũ mwega korwo nĩkuo ndũũraga o na rĩu!”’ Rĩu-rĩ, nĩngwenda kuona ũthiũ wa mũthamaki, na hangĩkorwo nĩ harĩ na ũndũ njĩkĩte mũũru, nĩakĩĩnjũrage.”
Abisalomu anati kwa Yowabu, “Taona, ine ndinatumiza mawu kwa iwe ndipo ndinati, ‘Bwera kuno kuti ndikutume kwa mfumu kukafunsa kuti, ‘Nʼchifukwa chiyani ine ndinabwera kuchokera ku Gesuri? Zikanakhala bwino ndikanakhala komweko!’ Tsono pano ndikufuna kuonana ndi mfumu, ndipo ngati ndili olakwa mfumuyo indiphe.’”
33 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Joabu agĩthiĩ kũrĩ mũthamaki, na akĩmũhe ũhoro ũcio. Hĩndĩ ĩyo mũthamaki agĩĩta Abisalomu, nake agĩũka, akĩinamĩrĩra aturumithĩtie ũthiũ thĩ mbere ya mũthamaki. Nake mũthamaki akĩmumunya Abisalomu.
Choncho Yowabu anapita kwa mfumu ndipo anayiwuza zimenezi. Ndipo mfumu inamuyitanitsa Abisalomu, ndipo analowa nawerama kugunditsa nkhope yake pansi pamaso pa mfumu. Tsono mfumu inapsompsona Abisalomu.
