1 A I ka hiki ana'ku o Davida me kona poe kanaka ma Zikelaga i ka po akolu, ua hele mai na Amaleka ma ka aoao hema a ma Zikelaga, a ua luku aku ia Zikelaga, a puhi aku la ia i ke ahi;
Kwasekusithi ngosuku lwesithathu, lapho uDavida labantu bakhe befika eZikilagi, amaAmaleki ayehlasele iningizimu, leZikilagi, ayitshaya iZikilagi, ayitshisa ngomlilo,
2 A ua lawe pio aku i na wahine o ia wahi; aole lakou i pepehi i kekahi o ka mea nui, aole hoi i ka mea uuku: aka, alakai aku la ia lakou, a hele aku la ma ko lakou ala.
athumba abesifazana ababephakathi kwayo; kusukela komncinyane kuze kube komkhulu kawabulalanga muntu, kodwa abaqhuba, ahamba ngendlela yawo.
3 A hiki aku la o Davida me kona poe kanaka ma ke kulanakauhale, aia hoi, ua puhiia i ke ahi; a ua lawe pio ia aku ka lakou mau wahine, a me ka lakou mau keikikane, a me ka lakou mau kaikamahine.
Lapho uDavida labantu bakhe befika emzini, khangela, wawutshisiwe ngomlilo, labomkabo, lamadodana abo lamadodakazi abo sebethunjiwe.
4 Alaila hookiekie ae la o Davida me na kanaka me ia i ko lakou leo iluna, a auwe iho la, a pau ko lakou aho i ka auwe ana.
UDavida labantu ababelaye basebephakamisa ilizwi labo bakhala inyembezi akaze aba khona kubo amandla okukhala.
5 A ua lawe pio ia aku la na wahine elua a Davida, o Ahinoama no Iezereela, a me Abigaila ka wahine a Nabala no Karemela.
OmkaDavida bobabili labo babethunjiwe, uAhinowama umJizereyelikazi loAbigayili umkaNabali weKharmeli.
6 Pilikia loa iho la o Davida: a ua olelo na kanaka e pehi ia ia i ka pohaku, no ka mea, ua kaumaha ka naau o na kanaka a pau, o kela kanaka keia kanaka no kana mau keikikane, a me kana mau kaikamahine: aka, hooikaika iho la o Davida ia ia iho ma Iehova kona Akua.
UDavida wasecindezeleka kakhulu, ngoba abantu babekhuluma ngokumkhanda ngamatshe, ngoba umphefumulo wabantu bonke wawubuhlungu, ngulowo lalowo ngenxa yamadodana langenxa yamadodakazi akhe. Kodwa uDavida waziqinisa ngeNkosi uNkulunkulu wakhe.
7 Olelo aku la o Davida ia Abiatara ke kahuna, ke keiki a Ahimeleka, Ke noi aku nei au ia oe e lawe mai i ka epoda ia'u. A lawe mai la o Abiatara i ka epoda ia Davida.
UDavida wasesithi kuAbhiyatha umpristi indodana kaAhimeleki: Akungilethele lapha i-efodi. UAbhiyatha waseyiletha i-efodi kuDavida.
8 Ninau aku la o Davida ia Iehova, i aku la, E hahai anei au mahope o keia poe? E loaa anei lakou ia'u? A i mai la oia ia ia, E hahai aku oe, no ka mea, e loaa no ia oe, a e lawe hou mai i na mea a pau.
UDavida wasebuza eNkosini esithi: Ngixotshane laleliviyo yini? Ngizalifica yini? Yasisithi kuye: Xotshana lalo, ngoba uzalifica lokulifica, ubakhulule lokubakhulula.
9 A hele aku la o Davida, oia me na kanaka pu me ia eono haneri, a hiki lakou ma ke kahawai o Besora, kahi i kali ai ka poe i waihoia mahope.
Ngakho uDavida wahamba, yena labantu abangamakhulu ayisithupha ababelaye, bafika esifuleni iBesori lapho abasalayo bahlala khona.
10 Aka, hahai aku la o Davida, oia me na haneri kanaka eha: no ka mea, hoonohoia aku la mahope elua haneri kanaka, aole e hiki aku lakou ma kela kapa o ke kahawai o Besora, no ko lakou nawaliwali.
Kodwa uDavida waxotshana labo, yena labantu abangamakhulu amane; ngoba abangamakhulu amabili basala, ababekhathele kakhulu ukuthi babengelakuchapha isifula iBesori.
11 A loaa ia lakou he kanaka no Aigupita ma ke kula, a lawe mai lakou ia ia io Davida la, a haawi aku la ia ia i ka berena, a ai iho la ia, a hooinu lakou ia ia i ka wai.
Basebefica umGibhithe emmangweni, bamletha kuDavida, bamnika ukudla, wadla, bamnathisa amanzi;
12 A haawi aku lakou ia ia i kekahi apana o ke pai fiku, a i elua huiwaina maloo: a pau kana ai ana, hiki hou mai la ka ikaika ia ia; no ka mea, aole ia i ai i ka berena, aole hoi i inu i ka wai i na la a me na po ekolu.
bamnika ucezu lwesinkwa somkhiwa lamahlukuzo amabili ezithelo zevini ezonyisiweyo. Kwathi esedlile umoya wabuyela kuye, ngoba wayengadlanga kudla, enganathanga manzi, insuku ezintathu lobusuku obuthathu.
13 Ninau aku la o Davida ia ia, Nowai la oe? a nohea hoi oe? I mai la ia, He kanaka ui au no Aigupita, he kauwa na kekahi Amaleka; a ua haalele kuu haku ia'u, no ka mea, i ka poakolu ae nei i loohia ai au e ka mai.
UDavida wasesithi kuye: Ungokabani? Uvela ngaphi? Wasesithi: Ngilijaha leGibhithe, inceku yomAmaleki, lenkosi yami ingitshiyile ngoba bengigula okwensuku ezintathu.
14 Hele kaua aku la makou ma ka aoao hema o ko Kereti, a ma kekahi aoao no ka Iuda, a ma ka aoao hema o Kaleba, a puhi aku la makou ia Zikelaga i ke ahi.
Thina besihlasela iningizimu yamaKerethi, lakwelakoJuda, leningizimu yakoKalebi, leZikilagi sayitshisa ngomlilo.
15 Ninau aku la o Davida ia ia, E hiki anei ia oe ke alakai aku ia'u i ua poe la? I mai la ia, E hoohiki mai oe ia'u ma ke Akua, i ole oe e pepehi mai ia'u, i ole hoi e haawi ia'u iloko o na lima o kuu haku, a e alakai aku au ia oe i ua poe la.
UDavida wasesithi kulo: Ungangehlisela kuleloviyo yini? Laselisithi: Funga kimi ngoNkulunkulu ukuthi kawuyikungibulala, njalo kawuyikunginikela esandleni senkosi yami, besengikwehlisela kuleloviyo.
16 A alakai aku la ia ia lakou, aia hoi, ua hoomoana lakou ma ka aina a pau, e ahaaina ana, a e inu ana, a e haa ana, no ka nui o ka waiwai pio a lakou i lawe ae noloko mai o ka aina o ko Pilisetia, a me ka aina o ka Iuda.
Selimehlisile, khangela, babehlakazekile ebusweni bomhlaba wonke, besidla, benatha, begidela impango enkulu ababeyithethe elizweni lamaFilisti lelizweni lakoJuda.
17 A luku aku la o Davida ia lakou mai ka wanaao a hiki i ke ahiahi a ia la aku; aole i pakele kekahi kanaka o lakou, eha haneri kanaka ui hooholo kamelo wale no i pakele.
UDavida wasebatshaya kusukela libantubahle kwaze kwaba kusihlwa kosuku olulandelayo lwabo. Njalo kakuphunyukanga muntu kubo, ngaphandle kwamajaha angamakhulu amane, agada amakamela, abaleka.
18 A loaa hou ia Davida na mea a pau a ka Ameleka i lawe aku ai, a hoopakele o Davida i kana mau wahine.
UDavida wasekhulula konke amaAmaleki ayekuthethe, labomkakhe bobabili uDavida wabakhulula.
19 Aole i nalowale kekahi mea ia lakou, aole ka mea uuku, aole ka mea nui, aole na keikikane, aole na kaikamahine, aole na waiwai pio, aole kekahi mea a lakou i lawe aku ai no lakou, loaa iho la ia Davida na mea a pau.
Njalo kakusilelanga lutho kubo kusukela komncinyane kuze kube komkhulu, kuze kube semadodaneni lemadodakazini, lempangweni, ngitsho lakuphi ababezithathele khona; uDavida wakubuyisa konke.
20 A lawe aku la o Davida i ka poe hipa a pau, a me na bipi a lakou i a ai imua o kela poe holoholona, a i ae la lakou, O ka Davida waiwai pio keia.
UDavida wasethatha zonke izimvu lenkomo. Baziqhuba phambi kwenkomo lezo, bathi: Le yimpango kaDavida.
21 A hoi mai o Davida i na haneri kanaka elua, i ka poe i hiki ole ke hahai mamuli o Davida no ko lakou nawaliwali, i na mea a lakou i hoonoho ai ma ke kahawai o Besora: a hele mai lakou e halawai me Davida, a e halawai hoi me na kanaka me ia: a hiki mai o Davida a kokoke i na kanaka, aloha mai la oia ia lakou.
UDavida wasefika kulabobantu abangamakhulu amabili ababekhathele kakhulu ukuthi babengelakulandela uDavida, abathi kabahlale esifuleni seBesori; basebephuma ukumhlangabeza uDavida lokuhlangabeza abantu ababelaye. Lapho uDavida esondela kubantu, wababuza impilakahle.
22 Alaila olelo mai na kanaka hewa a pau, a me ka poe Beliala, o na kanaka i hele pu me Davida, i mai la, No ko lakou hele pu ole me kakou, aole kakou e haawi aku ia lakou i kekahi o ka waiwai pio a kakou i loaa hou mai, aka, e lawe kela kanaka keia kanaka i kana wahine, a me kana mau keiki, a alakai aku, a hele.
Basebephendula bonke abantu ababi labakaBheliyali phakathi kwabantu ababehambe loDavida bathi: Njengoba bengahambanga lathi, kasiyikubanika empangweni esiyikhululileyo, ngaphandle kwakuleyo laleyondoda umkayo labantwana bayo, ukuthi babakhokhele bahambe.
23 Olelo aku la o Davida, E na hoahanau o'u, mai hana oukou pela i na mea a Iehova i haawi mai ai ia kakou, nana kakou i malama mai, a hoolilo mai hoi i ka poe i hele ku e mai ia kakou iloko o ko kakou lima.
Kodwa uDavida wathi: Kaliyikwenza njalo, bafowethu, ngalokho iNkosi esiphe khona, esilondolozileyo, yanikela esandleni sethu iviyo eleza lamelana lathi.
24 Owai ka mea e hoolohe mai ia oukou i keia mea? no ka mea, e like me ka ka mea i hele i ke kaua, pela no ka ka mea i noho me na ukana, e like pu ka lakou.
Pho, ngubani ozalilalela kuloludaba? Ngoba njengesabelo salowo owehlela empini sinjalo isabelo salowo ohlala lempahla; bazakwabelana ngokulinganayo.
25 A mai ia la mai, hana iho la oia ia mea i kanawai, a i olelo kupaa no ka Iseraela a hiki i keia la.
Kwasekusiba njalo kusukela mhlalokho kusiya phambili, ukuthi wakwenza kwaba yisimiso lesimiselo koIsrayeli kuze kube lamuhla.
26 A hiki aku la o Davida ma Zikelaga, hoouna aku la ia i kekahi o ka waiwai pio na na lunakahiko o ka Iuda, na kona poe makamaka, i aku la, Eia mai ka makana na oukou, no ka waiwai pio a ka poe enemi o Iehova;
UDavida esefikile eZikilagi, wathumela okwempango kubadala bakoJuda, kubo abangane bakhe, esithi: Khangela, isibusiso senu esivela empangweni yezitha zeNkosi.
27 Na ka poe ma Betela, a na ka poe ma Ramota kukulu hema, a na ka poe ma Iatira,
