2 Sama’ila 3
1 Aka daɗe ana yaƙi tsakanin gidan Shawulu da gidan Dawuda. Dawuda kuwa ya yi ta ƙara ƙarfi, yayinda gidan Shawulu ya yi ta raguwa a ƙarfi.
Impi phakathi kwendlu kaSawuli lendlu kaDavida yathatha isikhathi eside. UDavida wathuthuka elokhu esiba lamandla, kodwa indlu kaSawuli yaqhubeka ilokhu iphela amandla.
2 An haifa wa Dawuda’ya’ya maza a Hebron. Ɗansa na fari shi ne Amnon, ɗan Ahinowam mutuniyar Yezireyel;
UDavida wazala amadodana la eHebhroni: Izibulo lakhe lalingu-Amnoni indodana ka-Ahinowama owaseJezerili;
3 na biyu shi ne Kileyab, ɗan Abigiyel gwauruwar Nabal mutumin Karmel; na uku shi ne Absalom, ɗan Ma’aka’yar Talmai sarkin Geshur;
eyesibili kunguKhileyabi indodana ka-Abhigeli umfelokazi kaNabhali waseKhameli; eyesithathu kungu-Abhisalomu indodana kaMahakha indodakazi kaThalimayi inkosi yaseGeshuri;
4 na huɗu shi ne Adoniya, ɗan Haggit; na biyar shi ne Shefatiya, ɗan Abital;
eyesine kungu-Adonija indodana kaHagithi; eyesihlanu kunguShefathiya indodana ka-Abhithali;
5 na shida kuma shi ne Itireyam, ɗan Egla matar Dawuda. An haifi waɗannan wa Dawuda a Hebron.
eyesithupha kungu-Ithireyamu indodana yomkaDavida u-Egila. La uDavida wawazalela eHebhroni.
6 Sa’ad da ake yaƙi tsakanin gidan Shawulu da gidan Dawuda, sai Abner ya yi ta ƙarfafa matsayinsa a gidan Shawulu.
Ngesikhathi sempi phakathi kwendlu kaSawuli lendlu kaDavida, u-Abhineri wayeqinisa isikhundla sakhe endlini kaSawuli.
7 To, Shawulu yana da ƙwarƙwarar da ake kira Rizfa,’yar Aiya. Sai Ish-Boshet ya ce wa Abner, “Don me kake kwana da ƙwarƙwarar mahaifina?”
Kunjalo-nje uSawuli wayekade elomfazi weceleni owayethiwa nguRizipha indodakazi ka-Ayiya. U-Ishi-Bhoshethi wasesithi ku-Abhineri, “Kungani wembathe lomkababa owangaphandle na?”
8 Abner ya husata saboda abin da Ish-Boshet ya ce, sai ya ce, “Kana tsammani ni mai cin amana ne? Kana zato ni mai goyon bayan Yahuda ne? Tun farko na nuna aminci ga gidan babanka Shawulu, da’yan’uwansa, da abokansa! Ban kuwa ba da kai a hannun Dawuda ba. Ga shi yanzu a kan mace za ka ga laifina?
U-Abhineri wazonda kakhulu ngenxa yalokho okwatshiwo ngu-Ishi-Bhoshethi, wasephendula esithi, “Kanti ngilikhanda lenja eceleni lakoJuda na? Lanamuhla ngithembekile endlini kayihlo uSawuli lasemulini yakhe lakubangane bakhe. Angikunikelanga kuDavida. Kodwa khathesi usungethesa icala ngowesifazane lo!
9 Allah yă yi wa Abner hukunci mai tsanani, in ban goyi bayan Dawuda ya sami abin da Ubangiji ya yi masa alkawari da rantsuwa ba.
UNkulunkulu kamjezise u-Abhineri ngokunzima kakhulu, nxa uDavida ngingamenzeli lokho uThixo amthembisa khona ngesifungo
10 Zan kuma mayar wa Dawuda sarautar gidan Shawulu, in kafa kursiyin Dawuda a kan Isra’ila, da kan Yahuda tun daga Dan har zuwa Beyersheba.”
ngisuse umbuso endlini kaSawuli ngimise isihlalo sobukhosi sikaDavida ko-Israyeli lakoJuda kusukela koDani kusiyafika eBherishebha.”
11 Ish-Boshet bai ƙara yin karambanin ce wa Abner kome ba, gama yana tsoronsa.
U-Ishi-Bhoshethi kasatshongo elinye ilizwi ku-Abhineri, ngoba wayemesaba.
12 Sai Abner ya aiki manzanni a madadinsa wurin Dawuda su ce masa, “Ƙasar ta wane ne? Ka yi yarjejjeniya da ni, zan kuwa taimake ka, in juye dukan Isra’ila zuwa ɓangarenka.”
Emva kwalokho u-Abhineri wathuma izithunywa zimele yena ukuba ziyekuthi kuDavida, “Kanti ilizwe ngelikabani na? Yenza isivumelwano lami, mina ngizakusiza ekuletheni u-Israyeli wonke kuwe.”
13 Dawuda ya ce, “Da kyau, zan yi yarjejjeniya da kai, amma fa ina bukata abu guda daga gare ka, kada ka zo gabana in ba tare da matata Mikal,’yar Shawulu ba.”
UDavida wathi, “Kulungile, ngizakwenza isivumelwano lawe. Kodwa ngifuna into eyodwa kuwe: Ungezi kimi ngaphandle kokuba uze loMikhali indodakazi kaSawuli lapho usizangibona.”
14 Sai Dawuda ya aiki manzanni zuwa wurin Ish-Boshet ɗan Shawulu cewa, “Ka ba ni matata Mikal wadda na biya sadakinta da loɓa ɗari na Filistiyawa.”
UDavida wasethuma izithunywa ku-Ishi-Bhoshethi indodana kaSawuli ebamba ngamandla esithi, “Ngipha umkami uMikhali, engazendisela yena kimi ngentengo yamajwabu emiphambili yamaFilistiya alikhulu.”
15 Sai Ish-Boshet ya ba da umarni, aka kuwa ɗauke ta daga gidan mijinta Faltiyel ɗan Layish.
Ngakho u-Ishi-Bhoshethi wakhupha imilayo uMikhali wahlubulwa kumkakhe uPhalithiyeli indodana kaLayishi.
16 Amma mijin ya raka ta, yana tafe yana kuka, ya bi ta har Bahurim. Sai Abner ya ce masa, “Koma gida!” Sai ya koma.
Kodwa umkakhe wahamba laye ekhala ngemva kwakhe indlela yonke kusiya eBhahurimi. U-Abhineri wasesithi kuye, “Buyela ekhaya!” Ngakho wabuyela.
17 Abner ya tattauna da dattawan Isra’ila ya ce, “An daɗe kuna nema ku naɗa Dawuda sarkinku.
U-Abhineri wakhuluma labadala bako-Israyeli wathi, “Sekulesikhathi esithile lifuna ukwenza uDavida abe yinkosi yenu.
18 To, yanzu sai ku yi haka! Gama Ubangiji ya yi wa Dawuda alkawari ya ce, ‘Ta wurin bawana Dawuda zan ceci mutanena Isra’ila daga hannun Filistiyawa, da kuma hannun dukan abokan gābansu.’”
Khathesi-ke kwenzeni! Ngoba uThixo wathembisa uDavida wathi, ‘Ngenceku yami uDavida ngizahlenga abantu bami u-Israyeli esandleni samaFilistiya lasesandleni sezitha zabo zonke.’”
19 Abner kuma ya yi magana da mutane Benyamin da kansa. Sa’an nan ya tafi Hebron yă gaya wa Dawuda ko mene ne Isra’ila da kuma dukan gidan Benyamin suke so su yi.
U-Abhineri wakhuluma njalo labakoBhenjamini yena ngokwakhe. Emva kwalokho waya eHebhroni ukuyatshela uDavida konke u-Israyeli kanye lendlu yonke kaBhenjamini ababefuna ukukwenza.
20 Sa’ad da Abner wanda yake tare da mutane ashirin suka zo wurin Dawuda a Hebron, Dawuda ya shirya masa liyafa tare da mutanensa.
Kwathi u-Abhineri, owayelabantu abangamatshumi amabili, efika kuDavida eHebhroni, uDavida wamenzela idili kanye labantu bakhe.
21 Sai Abner ya ce wa Dawuda, “Bari in tafi nan da nan in tattara dukan Isra’ila wa ranka yă daɗe, sarki, saboda su yi alkawari da kai, ka kuma ka yi mulki bisa dukansu yadda ranka yake so.” Saboda haka Dawuda ya sallami Abner, ya kuwa tafi lafiya.
U-Abhineri wasesithi, “Yekela ngihle ngihambe ngiyebuthanisela inkosi, inkosi yami, u-Israyeli wonke, ukuze benze isivumelwano lawe, lokuthi ungabusa konke okufiswa yinhliziyo yakho.” Ngakho uDavida wathi u-Abhineri kahambe, wahamba ngokuthula.
22 Ba a jima ba sai mutanen Dawuda da Yowab suka dawo daga hari. Suka kawo ganima da yawa tare da su. Abner kuwa ya riga ya bar Dawuda a Hebron, domin Dawuda ya sallame shi, shi kuma ya tafi lafiya.
Khonokho nje abantu bakaDavida loJowabi babuya bevelahlasela njalo beze lempango enengi kakhulu. Kodwa u-Abhineri wayesesukile kuDavida eHebhroni, ngoba uDavida wayethe kahambe, njalo wayehambe ngokuthula.
23 Sa’ad da Yowab da dukan sojoji suka dawo, aka gaya masa cewa Abner ɗan Ner ya zo wurin sarki, sarki kuwa ya sallame shi, ya kuma tafi lafiya.
Kwathi uJowabi lamabutho wonke ayelaye befika, watshelwa ukuthi u-Abhineri indodana kaNeri wayeze enkosini lokuthi inkosi yayithe kahambe njalo ahambe ngokuthula.
24 Sai Yowab ya je wurin sarki ya ce, “Me ke nan ka yi? Abner ya zo wurinka. Don me ka ƙyale shi yă tafi? Ga shi kuwa ya tafi!
Ngakho uJowabi waya enkosini wathi, “Kuyini okwenzileyo? Khangela, u-Abhineri ufikile kuwe. Kungani umyekele wahamba? Khathesi usehambile!
25 Ka san Abner ɗan Ner ya zo ne yă ruɗe ka, yă ga fitarka da shigarka, yă kuma binciki kome da kake yi.”
Uyamazi u-Abhineri indodana kaNeri; ulande ukuzakukhohlisa lokubona ukuhambahamba kwakho kanye lokwazi konke okwenzayo.”
26 Yowab ya tashi daga gaban Dawuda ya tafi ya aika manzanni su bi Abner. Suka same shi a rijiyar Sira suka komo da shi, Dawuda kuwa bai sani ba.
UJowabi wasuka kuDavida wasethuma izithunywa ukuba zilandele u-Abhineri, njalo zayabuya laye zivela emthonjeni waseSira. Kodwa uDavida kakwazanga lokho.
27 To, da Abner ya komo Hebron, Yowab ya ratse da shi zuwa hanyar shigar gari kamar zai gana da shi a kaɗaice. Amma a can ya soki Abner a ciki, ya kashe shi don yă rama mutuwar ɗan’uwansa Asahel.
Khathesi-ke Abhineri, esebuyele eHebhroni, uJowabi wamusa eceleni esangweni, kungani uzakhuluma laye ngasese. Khonapho-ke ukuba aphindisele igazi lomfowabo u-Asaheli, uJowabi wamgwaza esiswini, wafa.
28 Daga baya, Dawuda ya ji labarin sai ya ce, “Ni da masarautata har abada ba mu da laifi a gaban Ubangiji game da jinin Abner ɗan Ner.
Muva, uDavida esekuzwile lokhu, wathi, “Mina lombuso wami kasilacala lanini phambi kukaThixo mayelana legazi lika-Abhineri indodana kaNeri.
29 Alhakin jininsa yă kasance a kan Yowab da kuma a kan dukan iyalin mahaifinsa! Kada gidan Yowab yă rasa mai ɗiga, ko kuturu, ko mai jingina ga sanda, ko wanda aka kashe da takobi, ko kuma wanda ba shi da abinci.”
Sengathi igazi lakhe lingehlela phezu kwekhanda likaJowabi laphezu kwendlu yonke kayise. Sengathi endlini kaJowabi akungasweleki lanininini omunye olenxeba elibhibhidlayo loba ubulephero, loba edondolozela ngodondolo kumbe obulawa ngenkemba loba oswela ukudla.”
30 (Yowab da ɗan’uwansa Abishai suka kashe Abner don yă kashe ɗan’uwansu Asahel a yaƙin Gibeyon.)
(UJowabi lomfowabo u-Abhishayi bambulala u-Abhineri ngoba wayebulele umfowabo u-Asaheli empini eGibhiyoni.)
31 Sa’an nan Dawuda ya ce wa Yowab da dukan mutanen da suke tare da shi, “Ku yayyage rigunarku, ku sa tsummoki, ku yi tafiya kuna kuka a gaban Abner.” Sarki Dawuda kansa ya bi masu ɗauke da gawar daga baya.
UDavida wasesithi kuJowabi lakubo bonke abantu ababelaye, “Dabulani izigqoko zenu ligqoke amasaka lihambe ngokulila phambi kuka-Abhineri.” Inkosi uDavida yena ngokwakhe wahamba ngemva kwethala lesidumbu.
32 Suka binne Abner a Hebron, sarki kuwa ya ɗaga murya ya yi kuka a kabarin Abner.
U-Abhineri bamgcwaba eHebhroni, njalo inkosi yakhala yaphumisela ethuneni lika-Abhineri. Abantu bonke labo bakhala.
33 Sarki ya kuma yi wannan waƙar makoki domin Abner ya ce, “Daidai ne Abner yă mutu, kamar yadda marasa bin doka suke mutuwa?
Inkosi yahlabelela u-Abhineri isililo lesi: “U-Abhineri bekumele afe njengokufa kwezixhwali na?
34 Hannuwanka ba a daure suke ba, ƙafafunka ba a tabaibaye suke ba. Ka mutu kamar waɗanda suke mutuwa a hannun mugaye.” Sai dukan mutane suka sāke fashe da kuka saboda shi.
Izandla zakho kade zingabotshwanga, inyawo zakho zingelamaketane. Ufe ngokubulawa ngabantu ababi.” Abantu bonke bamlilela futhi.
35 Sa’an nan duk suka zo suka roƙi Dawuda yă ci wani abu tun rana ba tă fāɗi ba; amma Dawuda ya rantse ya ce, “Bari Allah yă hukunta ni, in na ɗanɗana abinci ko wani abu kafin rana ta fāɗi!”
Emva kwalokho bonke beza bancenga uDavida ukuba adle okunye nje kusesemini; kodwa uDavida wafunga esithi, “UNkulunkulu kangijezise, kube nzima kakhulu, nxa nginambitha isinkwa loba olunye ulutho ilanga lingakatshoni!”
36 Dukan mutane suka lura suka kuma ji daɗi ƙwarai, tabbatacce kome da sarki ya yi, ya gamshe su.
Abantu bonke bakunanzelela njalo bathaba; impela konke okwenziwa yinkosi kwabathokozisa.
37 Saboda haka a ranar dukan mutane da dukan Isra’ila suka gane sarki ba shi da hannu a kisan Abner ɗan Ner.
Ngakho ngalelolanga abantu bonke lo-Israyeli wonke bakwazi ukuthi inkosi yayingelasandla ekubulaweni kuka-Abhineri indodana kaNeri.
38 Sa’an nan sarki ya ce wa mutanensa, “Ba ku gane cewa ɗan sarki kuma babban mutum ya mutu a ƙasar Isra’ila a yau ba?
Inkosi yasisithi ebantwini bayo, “Kaliboni yini ukuthi inkosana lomuntu odumileyo ifile ko-Israyeli lamhla na?
39 A yau, ko da yake ni naɗaɗɗen sarki ne, duk da haka na raunana, kuma waɗannan’ya’yan Zeruhiya sun fi ƙarfina. Ubangiji yă sāka wa mai aikata mugunta da muguntar da ya aikata!”
Njalo lamhla, lanxa ngiyinkosi egcotshiweyo, ngibuthakathaka, njalo amadodana kaZeruya la alamandla kakhulu kulami. Sengathi uThixo angaphindisela umenzi wokubi mayelana lezenzo zakhe ezimbi!”
