II Samuela 8
1 MAHOPE aku, pepehi aku la o Davida i na Pilisetia, a hoolilo iho la ia lakou malalo ona: a lawe ae la hoi o Davida i ke kulanakauhale alii mailoko ae o ka lima o na Pilisetia.
Kwasekusithi emva kwalokho uDavida watshaya amaFilisti, wawehlisela phansi; uDavida wasethatha iMethegama esandleni samaFilisti.
2 Pepehi aku la hoi ia i ko Moaba, ana iho la ia lakou i ke kaulaana, e hoohina ana ia lakou ma ka honua: ana iho la oia ia lakou i elua kaula-ana e make ai, a me kekahi kaula-ana okoa e ola ai. Pela i lilo ai ko Moaba i aina kauwa na Davida, a lawe mai la hoi lakou i ka waiwai hoekupu.
Wasetshaya amaMowabi, wawalinganisa ngentambo, ewalalisa emhlabathini; walinganisa intambo ezimbili ukubulala, lentambo epheleleyo ukuwayekela ephila. Ngokunjalo amaMowabi aba zinceku zikaDavida, eletha izipho.
3 Pepehi aku la hoi o Davida ia Hadadezera ke keiki a Rehoba, ke alii o Zoba, ia ia i hele aku ai e hoopaa i kona palena aina ma ka muliwai o Euperate.
UDavida wasetshaya uHadadezeri indodana kaRehobi inkosi yeZoba, ekuhambeni kwakhe ukubuyisela amandla akhe emfuleni iYufrathi.
4 Lawe pio aku la hoi o Davida mai ona aku la i ua hoohololio hookahi tausani me na haneri ehiku, a me na tausani kanaka hele wawae he iwakalua; a oki iho la o Davida i ke olona wawae o na lio no na halekaa; aka, ua hookoe ia i hookahi haneri o na lio halekaa.
UDavida wasethumba kuye inqola eziyinkulungwane, labagadi bamabhiza abangamakhulu ayisikhombisa, lamadoda ahamba ngenyawo ayizinkulungwane ezingamatshumi amabili; waquma imisipha yawo wonke amabhiza enqola, kodwa watshiya kuwo izinqola ezilikhulu.
5 A i ka hele ana mai o ko Suria no Damaseko e kokua mamuli o Hadadezera ke alii o Zoba, pepehi iho la o Davida i na kanaka he iwakalua kumamalua tausani o ko Suria.
Lapho amaSiriya aweDamaseko efika ukusiza uHadadezeri inkosi yeZoba, uDavida watshaya amadoda ayizinkulungwane ezingamatshumi amabili lambili kumaSiriya.
6 A hana iho la o Davida i na pakana ma Suria o Damaseko; a lilo ae la ko Suria i poe kauwa na Davida, a lawe mai la i ka waiwai hookupu. A malama mai la o Iehova ia Davida i na wahi a pau ana i hele ai.
UDavida wasebeka amabutho enqaba eSiriya yeDamaseko; njalo amaSiriya aba zinceku zikaDavida, eletha izipho. INkosi yasimlondoloza uDavida loba ngaphi lapho aya khona.
7 Hao ae la o Davida i na palekaua gula maluna o na kauwa a Hadadezera, a lawe mai la ia mau mea i Ierusaluma.
UDavida wasethatha izihlangu zegolide ezazisezincekwini zikaHadadezeri, waziletha eJerusalema.
8 Lawe mai la hoi o Davida ke alii i ke keleawe he nui loa, mai Beta mai, a mai Berotai mai, na kulanakauhale o Hadadezera.
Inkosi uDavida yasithatha ithusi elinengi kakhulu eBeta leBerothayi, imizi kaHadadezeri.
9 A lohe ae la o Toi ke alii o Hamata ua pepehi aku o Davida i ka poe kaua a pau no Hadadezera,
Lapho uToyi inkosi yeHamathi esizwa ukuthi uDavida wayetshaye ibutho lonke likaHadadezeri,
10 Alaila, hoouna mai la o Toi ia Iorama kana keiki io Davida la ke alii e ike ia ia, a e hoalohaloha ia ia, no ka mea, ua kaua aku oia ia Hadadezera, a ua luku aku ia ia: no ka mea, he kanaka kaua o Toi me Hadadezera; a ma kona lima na kiaha kala a me na kiaha gula a me na kiaha keleawe.
uToyi wasethuma uJoramu indodana yakhe enkosini uDavida ukuyibuza impilo lokuyibusisa, ngoba yayilwe loHadadezeri yamtshaya (ngoba uHadadezeri waba lezimpi loToyi); njalo esandleni sakhe kwakulezitsha zesiliva lezitsha zegolide lezitsha zethusi.
11 Hoolaa aku la no o Davida ia mau mea no Iehova, me ke kala a me ke gula ana i hoolaa aku ai o na lahuikanaka a pau ana i hookauwa aku ai:
Lazo inkosi uDavida yazehlukanisela iNkosi kanye lesiliva legolide eyayilehlukanisile livela ezizweni zonke eyayizehlisele phansi,
12 O ko Suria, o ko Moaba, a o ka poe mamo a Amona, o ko Pilisetia, a o ko Ameleka, a o ka waiwai pio no Hadadezera ke keiki a Rehoba, ke alii no Zoba.
eSiriya, lakoMowabi, lakubantwana bakoAmoni, lakumaFilisti, leAmaleki, lempangweni kaHadadezeri indodana kaRehobi, inkosi yeZoba.
13 Kaulana ae la ka inoa o Davida i kona wa i hoi mai ai, mai ka pepehi ana i ko Suria ma ke wawa paakai, he umikumamawalu tausani kanaka.
UDavida wasezenzela ibizo ekubuyeni kwakhe ekutshayeni amaSiriya, esihotsheni seTshwayi, izinkulungwane ezilitshumi lesificaminwembili.
14 Hana iho la hoi ia i na pakaua ma Edoma; ma Edoma a pau i hana iho ai oia i na pakaua; a lilo mai la ko Edoma a pau i kauwa na Davida. A malama mai la o Iehova ia Davida i na wahi a pau ana i hele aku ai.
Wasebeka inqaba zamabutho eEdoma; kuyo yonke iEdoma wabeka inqaba zamabutho, labo bonke abeEdoma baba zinceku zikaDavida. INkosi yasimlondoloza uDavida loba ngaphi lapho aya khona.
15 Nohoalii iho la o Davida maluna o ka Iseraela a pau; a hooko aku la o Davida i ke kanawai, me ka hoopono aku i na kanaka ona a pau.
UDavida wabusa-ke phezu kukaIsrayeli wonke; uDavida wayesenza ukwahlulela lokulunga kubo bonke abantu bakhe.
16 A o Ioaba ke keiki a Zeruia, oia ka luna kaua; a o Iehosapata ke keiki a Ahiluda ke kakaolelo;
Njalo uJowabi indodana kaZeruya wayephezu kwebutho; loJehoshafathi indodana kaAhiludi wayengumabhalane;
17 A o Zadoka ke keiki a Ahituba, a me Ahimeleka ke keiki a Abiatara na kahuna; a o Seraia ke kakauolelo;
loZadoki indodana kaAhitubi loAhimeleki indodana kaAbhiyatha babengabapristi; loSeraya wayengumbhali;
18 A o Benaia ke keiki a Iehoida, maluna ia o ka poe Kereti, a me ka poe Peleti; a o na keiki a Davida, he mau keiki alii lakou.
loBhenaya indodana kaJehoyadawayephezu kwamaKerethi lamaPelethi; lamadodana kaDavida ayeyiziphathamandla.
