II Samuela 11
1 A I ka makahiki hou, i ka manawa e hele aku ai na alii [i ke kaua, ] hoouna aku la o Davida ia Ioaba, a me na kauwa ana me ia, a me ka Iseraela a pau; a luku aku la lakou i ka poe mamo a Amona; a pue aku la ia Raba: aka, noho iho la o Davida ma Ierusalema ia manawa.
Kwasekusithi ekuthwaseni komnyaka ngesikhathi amakhosi aphuma ngaso impi, uDavida wathuma uJowabi lenceku zakhe kanye laye loIsrayeli wonke; basebechitha abantwana bakoAmoni, bavimbezela iRaba. Kodwa uDavida wahlala eJerusalema.
2 A i ka manawa ahiahi, ala'e la o Davida mai kona wahi moe, a holoholo ae la maluna o ka hale o ke alii: nana aku la ia mai luna ae o ka hale i kekahi wahine e auau ana: a he maikai loa ua wahine la ke nanaia'ku.
Kwasekusithi ngesikhathi sakusihlwa uDavida wavuka embhedeni wakhe, wahambahamba phezu kophahla lwendlu yenkosi; esephahleni wasebona owesifazana egeza; njalo owesifazana wayemuhle kakhulu, ebukeka.
3 Hoouna aku la o Davida e ninau aku no ka wahine. I mai la kekahi, Aole anei keia o Bateseba ke kaikamahine a Eliama, ka wahine hoi a Uria ka Heta?
UDavida wasethuma wabuza ngalowowesifazana. Kwasekuthiwa: Lo kakusuye uBathisheba yini, indodakazi kaEliyamu, umkaUriya umHethi?
4 Hoouna aku la o Davida i na mea kii aku, a lalau aku la ia ia: a hele mai la ia iloko io na la, a moe iho la kela me ia; no ka mea, ua huikalaia oia i kona haumia ana: a hoi hou aku la ia i kona hale.
UDavida wasethuma izithunywa wamthatha, owesifazana weza kuye, walala laye (ngoba wayehlanjululiwe ekungcoleni kwakhe), wasebuyela endlini yakhe.
5 A hapai ae la ua wahine la, hoouna aku la a hai ia Davida, i ka i ana, Ua hapai au.
Owesifazana wasethatha isisu, wathumela watshela uDavida wathi: Sengilesisu.
6 Hoouna aku la o Davida io Ioaba la, i aku la, E hoouna mai oe ia Uria ka Heta i o'u nei. A hoouna mai la o Ioaba ia Uria io Davida la.
UDavida wasethumela kuJowabi wathi: Thumela kimi uUriya umHethi. UJowabi wasethumela uUriya kuDavida.
7 A hiki mai la o Uria io na la, ninau aku la o Davida ia ia i ka pomaikai o Ioaba, me ka pomaikai o na kanaka, a me ka pomaikai ana o ke kaua.
Esefikile kuye uUriya, uDavida wambuza ngempilakahle kaJowabi langempilakahle yabantu langempumelelo yempi.
8 I aku la o Davida ia Uria, e iho iho oe i kou hale, a e holoi i kou wawae. A hele aku la o Uria iwaho o ka hale o ke alii, a ukali aku la kekahi ai mahope ona na ke alii aku.
UDavida wasesithi kuUriya: Yehlela endlini yakho, ugeze inyawo zakho. U-Uriya wasephuma endlini yenkosi; kwasekulandela emva kwakhe isipho esivela enkosini.
9 Aka, hiamoe iho la o Uria ma ka puka o ka hale o ke alii me na kauwa a pau a kona haku, aole ia i hele aku i kona hale.
Kodwa uUriya walala emnyango wendlu yenkosi kanye lenceku zonke zenkosi yakhe, kehlelanga endlini yakhe.
10 Hai aku la lakou ia Davida, i aku la, Aole i hele aku o Uria i kona hale. Ninau aku la o Davida ia Uria, Aole anei oe i hele mai mai kou hele ana? Heaha hoi kau i hele ole aku ai i kou hale?
Kwathi sebemtshelile uDavida besithi: U-Uriya kehlelanga endlini yakhe, uDavida wathi kuUriya: Kawuveli ekuhambeni yini? Kungani ungehlelanga endlini yakho?
11 I aku la o Uria ia Davida, Ke noho nei ka pahuberita, a o ka Iseraela a o ka Iuda iloko o na halelewa; ke hoomoana la hoi kuu haku o Ioaba me na kauwa a kuu haku mawaho ma ke kula; e komo anei hoi au iloko o ko'u hale e ai, a e inu, a e moe me ka'u wahine? Ma kou ola ana, me ke ola ana hoi o kou uhane, aole au e hana ia mea.
U-Uriya wasesithi kuDavida: Umtshokotsho, loIsrayeli, loJuda kuhlala emathenteni; lenkosi yami uJowabi lenceku zenkosi yami bamisile inkamba endle; mina-ke ngizangena endlini yami yini ukuyakudla lokuyanatha lokuyalala lomkami? Kuphila kwakho lokuphila komphefumulo wakho, kangisoze ngiyenze leyonto.
12 I aku la o Davida ia Uria, E noho iho hoi oe i keia la, a apopo e kuu aku ai au ia oe e hoi. A noho iho la o Uria ma Ierusalema ia la, a hiki i kekahi la ae.
UDavida wasesithi kuUriya: Hlala lapha lalamuhla, kusasa-ke ngizakuvumela ukuthi uhambe. U-Uriya wasehlala eJerusalema ngalolosuku langosuku olulandelayo.
13 Kahea aku la o Davida ia ia, a ai iho la ia a inu hoi imua ona; hoinu iho la o Davida ia ia a ona: a ahiahi ae la, hele aku la ia iwaho e moe ma kona wahi moe me na kauwa o kona haku, aole nae ia i hele i kona hale.
UDavida wasembiza ukuthi adle anathe phambi kwakhe, wamdakisa; njalo kusihlwa waphuma ukuyalala embhedeni wakhe kanye lenceku zenkosi yakhe, kodwa kehlelanga endlini yakhe.
14 A kakahiaka ae, kakau iho la o Davida i ka palapala ia Ioaba, a hoouka aku la ia ma ka lima o Uria.
Kwasekusithi ekuseni uDavida wabhalela uJowabi incwadi, wayithumela ngesandla sikaUriya.
15 Kakau iho la ia iloko o ka palapala, i ka i ana'ku, E hoonoho aku oe ia Uria ma ke alo o ke kaua ikaika, a e hoi i hope oukou mai ona aku la, i pepehiia'i oia a make.
Wasebhala encwadini esithi: Misani uUriya phambili eqondene lokulwa okutshisayo kakhulu, beselihlehlela nyovane lisuka kuye, ukuze atshaywe afe.
16 A i ko Ioaba nana ana aku i ke kulanakauhale, hoonoho aku la oia ia Uria ma kahi ana i ike ai ilaila na kanaka ikaika.
Kwasekusithi lapho uJowabi esewukhangelisisile umuzi, wamisa uUriya endaweni azi ukuthi kulamaqhawe khona.
17 Hele mai la na kanaka o ua kulanakauhale la iwaho, a kaua mai la ia Ioaba ma: a hina iho la kekahi poe kanaka o na kauwa a Davida, a make iho la hoi o Uria ka Heta.
Amadoda omuzi asephuma alwa loJowabi; kwawa abanye babantu, benceku zikaDavida; wafa laye uUriya umHethi.
18 Hoouna aku la o Ioaba, a hai aku la ia Davida i na mea a pau o ke kaua;
UJowabi wasethuma wambikela uDavida zonke indaba zempi;
19 Kauoha aku la ia i ka elele, i aku la, A pau kau hai ana aku i na mea o ke kaua i ke alii;
wasilaya isithunywa esithi: Lapho usuqedile ukuyibikela inkosi zonke izindaba zempi,
20 Ina paha e huhu mai ke alii, a e i mai hoi ia oe, No ke aha la oukou i hele aku ai pela a kokoke i ke kulanakauhale i ke kaua ana o oukou? Aole anei oukou i ike, e pana mai lakou mai luna mai o ka pa?
kuzakuthi-ke uba ulaka lwenkosi luvuka, isithi kuwe: Belisondelelani kangaka emzini ukulwa? Belingazi yini ukuthi bebezaciba besemdulini?
21 Nawai i pepehi ia Abimeleka ke keiki a Ierubeseta? Aole anei he wahine i hoolei iho i ka apana pohaku wili palaoa maluna ona, i make ai oia ma Tebeza? No ke aha la oukou i hele aku ai a kokoke i ka pa? Alaila e i aku oe, Ua make no hoi kau kauwa o Uria o ka Heta.
Ngubani owatshaya uAbhimeleki indodana kaJerubeshethi? Angithi owesifazana wamwisela ngocezu lwelitshe lokuchola ephezu komduli, waze wafa eThebezi? Lisondeleleni eduze lomduli? Ubususithi: Inceku yakho uUriya umHethi laye ufile.
22 Hele aku la ka elele, hiki aku la a hai aku la ia Davida i na mea a pau a Ioaba i hoouna aku ai ia ia.
Sasesihamba isithunywa, safika sambikela uDavida konke uJowabi ayesithume khona.
23 I aku la ka elele ia Davida, He oiaio ua lanakila mai kela poe kanaka maluna o makou, a hele mai la lakou iwaho io makou la ma ke kula, a hahai aku la makou ia lakou a hiki i ke komo ana ma ka puka.
Isithunywa sasesisithi kuDavida: Isibili, abantu basehlula, basiphumela egangeni; kodwa saba phezu kwabo kwaze kwaba semnyango wesango.
24 A pana mai la ka poe pana mai luna mai o ka pa maluna iho o kau poe kauwa, a ua make kekahi poe kauwa a ke alii, a ua make hoi kau kauwa o Uria.
Abatshoki basebetshoka ezincekwini zakho bephezu komduli; zifile lezinye zenceku zenkosi; lenceku yakho uUriya umHethi ifile layo.
25 Alaila i aku la o Davida i ka elele, Penei kau e olelo aku ai ia Ioaba, Mai hoino oe ia mea ma kou manao; no ka mea, i ka ai ana mai a ka pahikaua e like me keia, pela no i na mea a pau: e hooikaika ae oe i kou kaua ana i ke kulanakauhale, a e hookahuli ia wahi; a nau no e hooikaika aku ia ia.
UDavida wasesithi kuso isithunywa: Uzakutsho njalo kuJowabi uthi: Le into kayingabimbi emehlweni akho, ngoba inkemba idla omunye njengomunye; qinisa impi yakho imelane lomuzi, uwuchithe; ubusumqinisa.
26 A lohe ae la ka wahine a Uria, ua make o Uria kana kane, kanikau iho la ia i kana kane.
Lapho umkaUriya esezwile ukuthi uUriya indoda yakhe ufile, wayililela indoda yakhe.
27 A pau ae la ke kanikau ana, kii aku la o Davida, a lawe mai la ia ia i kona hale, a lilo ae la ia i wahine nana: a hanau mai la ia i keikikane nana: aka, he ino ka mea a Davida i hana'i imua o Iehova.
Sekwedlulile ukulila, uDavida wathuma, wamletha endlini yakhe; wasesiba ngumkakhe, wamzalela indodana. Kodwa leyonto uDavida ayenzayo yayimbi emehlweni eNkosi.
