3 Daudi akĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Wee uumĩte kũ?” Nake akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Nĩ kũũra njũrĩte, ngoima kambĩ-inĩ ya andũ a Isiraeli.”
Davide anamufunsa iye kuti, “Kodi iwe wachokera kuti?” Iye anayankha kuti, “Ine ndathawa ku misasa ya Aisraeli.”
4 Daudi akĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Kaĩ gwĩkĩkĩte atĩa? Ta njĩĩra.” Nake akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Andũ nĩmorĩte makoima mbaara-inĩ. Na andũ aingĩ nĩmooragĩtwo. Nake Saũlũ na mũriũ Jonathani nĩmakuĩte.”
Davide anafunsa, “Tandiwuza, chachitika ndi chiyani?” Iye anati, “Anthu athawa ku nkhondo ndipo ambiri aphedwa. Sauli ndi mwana wake Yonatani aphedwa.”
5 Ningĩ Daudi akĩũria mwanake ũcio wamũreheire ũhoro ũcio atĩrĩ, “Ũmenyete atĩa atĩ Saũlũ na mũriũ Jonathani nĩmakuĩte?”
Ndipo Davide anati kwa mnyamata amene anabweretsa nkhaniyi, “Ukudziwa bwanji kuti Sauli ndi mwana wake Yonatani afa?”
6 Mwanake ũcio akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Ndĩrakorirwo ndĩ hau kĩrĩma-inĩ kĩa Giliboa, na hau nĩho ndĩronire Saũlũ, etiranĩtie na itimũ rĩake, akiriĩ gũkorererwo nĩ ngaari cia ita na ahaici a mbarathi.
Mnyamatayo anati, “Zinangochitika kuti ndinali pa phiri la Gilibowa, ndipo Sauli anali komweko ataweramira pa mkondo wake, pamodzi ndi magaleta ndi okwera ake atamuyandikira.
7 Rĩrĩa eehũgũrire, akĩnyona, na akĩnjĩta, na niĩ ngĩmũũria atĩrĩ, ‘Ũngĩenda ngwĩkĩre atĩa?’
Pamene anatembenuka ndi kundiona ine, iye anandiyitana, ndipo ndinati, ‘Kodi ndichite chiyani?’”
8 “Nake akĩnjũũria atĩrĩ, ‘Wee ũrĩ ũ?’ “Ngĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, ‘Niĩ ndĩ Mũamaleki.’
Iye anandifunsa, “Iwe ndiwe yani?” Ine ndinayankha kuti, “Ndine Mwamaleki.”
9 “Ningĩ akĩnjĩĩra atĩrĩ, ‘Ũka haha ũnjũrage! Niĩ ndĩ na ruo rũnene mũno rwa gĩkuũ, no ndĩ o muoyo.’
“Kenaka iye anati kwa ine, ‘Bwera pafupi ndipo undiphe! Ndikumva ululu kwambiri, koma ndikanali ndi moyo!’
10 “Nĩ ũndũ ũcio ngĩthiĩ harĩ we, ngĩmũũraga, tondũ nĩndamenyire atĩ arĩkĩtie kũgũa ndekũhona. Ngĩruta thũmbĩ ĩrĩa yarĩ mũtwe wake, na mũrĩnga ũrĩa warĩ guoko gwake, na nĩcio indo iria ndarehera mwathi wakwa.”
“Kotero ndinabwera pafupi ndi kumupha, chifukwa ndinadziwa kuti mmene anagweramo sakanakhalanso ndi moyo. Ndipo ndatenga chipewa chaufumu chimene chinali pamutu pake ndi khoza la pa dzanja lake ndipo ndazibweretsa kwa inu mbuye wanga.”
11 Hĩndĩ ĩyo Daudi na andũ othe arĩa maarĩ nake makĩnyiita nguo ciao, magĩcitembũranga.
Apo Davide ndi anthu onse amene anali nawo anangʼamba zovala zawo.
12 Nao magĩcakaya, na makĩrĩra, o na makĩĩhinga kũrĩa irio nginya hwaĩ-inĩ, nĩ ũndũ wa Saũlũ na mũriũ Jonathani, o na nĩ ũndũ wa mbũtũ cia ita cia Jehova, na nyũmba ya Isiraeli, tondũ nĩmooragĩtwo na rũhiũ rwa njora.
Iwo analira maliro ndi kusala zakudya mpaka madzulo chifukwa cha Sauli ndi mwana wake Yonatani, komanso chifukwa cha gulu la ankhondo la Yehova ndi nyumba ya Israeli, chifukwa anaphedwa ndi lupanga.
13 Daudi akĩũria mwanake ũcio wamũreheire ũhoro atĩrĩ, “Wee uumĩte kũ?” Nake agĩcookia atĩrĩ, “Niĩ ndĩ mũriũ wa mũndũ wa kũngĩ, Mũamaleki.”
Davide anati kwa mnyamata amene anabweretsa uthengawo, “Iwe umachokera kuti?” Iye anayankha kuti, “Ine ndine mwana wa mlendo Mwamaleki.”
14 Daudi akĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Nĩ kĩĩ kĩragiririe wĩtigĩre gũtambũrũkia guoko gwaku ũũrage mũitĩrĩrie maguta wa Jehova?”
Davide anamufunsanso kuti, “Nʼchifukwa chiyani sunaope kukweza dzanja lako ndi kupha wodzozedwa wa Yehova?”
15 Ningĩ Daudi agĩĩta ũmwe wa andũ ake, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Thiĩ, ũmũũrage!” Nake akĩmũringa, agĩkua.
Kenaka Davide anayitana mmodzi mwa anyamata ake ndipo anati, “Pita ukamukanthe!” Kotero iye anapita kukamukantha, ndipo mnyamata uja anafa.
16 Nĩgũkorwo Daudi aamwĩĩrire atĩrĩ, “Thakame yaku ĩrogũcookerera. Kanua gaku we mwene nĩko kaaruta ũira wa gũgũũkĩrĩra, rĩrĩa uugire atĩrĩ, ‘Nĩndĩrooragire mũitĩrĩrie maguta wa Jehova.’”
Pakuti Davide anali atanena kwa iye kuti, “Iwe wadzipha wekha. Pakamwa pako pakunena zokutsutsa wekha, pamene unanena kuti, ‘Ine ndapha wodzozedwa wa Yehova.’”
17 Nake Daudi agĩcakaĩra Saũlũ na mũriũ Jonathani,
Davide anayimba nyimbo iyi ya maliro, kulira Sauli ndi mwana wake Yonatani.
18 na agĩathana atĩ andũ a Juda marutwo icakaya rĩĩrĩ rĩĩtagwo rwĩmbo rwa ũta (narĩo rĩandĩkĩtwo Ibuku-inĩ rĩa Jasharu):
Ndipo analamula kuti anthu a ku Yuda aphunzitsidwe nyimbo ya maliroyi imene yalembedwa mʼbuku la Yasari:
19 “Wee Isiraeli, riiri waku ũũragĩtwo irĩma-inĩ ciaku.
“Ulemerero wako iwe Israeli, wagona utaphedwa ku zitunda. Taonani amphamvu agwa kumeneko!
20 “Ũhoro ũyũ ndũkaheanwo Gathu,
“Musakanene zimenezi ku Gati, musazilengeze ku misewu ya ku Asikeloni, kuti ana aakazi a Afilisti angasangalale, ana aakazi a osachita mdulidwe angakondwere.
21 “Atĩrĩrĩ, inyuĩ irĩma cia Giliboa,
“Inu mapiri a ku Gilibowa, musakhalenso ndi mame kapena mvula, kapena minda yobereka zopereka za ufa. Pakuti kumeneko chishango cha munthu wamphamvu chinadetsedwa, chishango cha Sauli sanachipakenso mafuta.
22 Kuuma kũrĩ thakame ya arĩa moragĩtwo,
“Pa magazi a ophedwa, pa mnofu wa amphamvu, uta wa Yonatani sunabwerere, lupanga la Sauli silinabwere chabe.
23 “Saũlũ na Jonathani,
“Sauli ndi Yonatani, pa moyo wawo anali okondedwa ndi okoma mtima, ndipo pa imfa yawo sanasiyanitsidwe. Iwo anali ndi liwiro loposa ziwombankhanga, anali ndi mphamvu zoposa mkango.
24 “Inyuĩ airĩtu a Isiraeli,
“Inu ana aakazi a Israeli, mulireni Sauli, amene anakuvekani zovala zofiira ndi zofewa, amene anakometsera zovala zanu ndi zokometsera zagolide.
25 “Hĩ, kaĩ andũ arĩa njamba nĩmagwĩrĩire mbaara-inĩ-ĩ!
“Taonani amphamvu agwa ku nkhondo! Yonatani wagona ataphedwa ku zitunda.
26 Niĩ ndĩ na kĩeha nĩ ũndũ waku Jonathani, wee mũrũ wa baba;
Ine ndikuvutika mumtima chifukwa cha iwe mʼbale wanga Yonatani, unali wokondedwa kwambiri kwa ine. Chikondi chako pa ine chinali chopambana, chopambana kuposa chikondi cha akazi.
27 “Hĩ, kaĩ andũ arĩa njamba nĩmagwĩte-ĩ!
“Taonani amphamvu agwa! Zida zankhondo zawonongeka!”
