2 Samuel 21
1 Ụnwụ dara afọ atọ nʼoge Devid na-achị, afọ kwa afọ. Devid chọrọ ihu Onyenwe anyị. Mgbe ahụ, Onyenwe anyị sịrị, “Ọ bụ maka Sọl na ọbara ụlọ ya kwafuru, nʼihi na o gburu ndị Gibiọn.”
Kwasekusiba khona indlala ensukwini zikaDavida iminyaka emithathu, umnyaka ngomnyaka ilandelana; uDavida wadinga ubuso beNkosi. INkosi yasisithi: Kungenxa kaSawuli langenxa yendlu yakhe yegazi, ngoba wabulala amaGibeyoni.
2 Eze kpọrọ ndị Gibiọn, gwa ha okwu. (Ndị Gibiọn abụghị ndị Izrel, kama ha bụ ndị fọdụrụ nʼime ndị Amọrait, ndị bi nʼala Kenan mgbe ụmụ Izrel batara. Mgbe ahụ ha batara, ndị Izrel ṅụrụ iyi nye ndị Gibiọn na ha agaghị egbu ha, ma Sọl sitere nʼịnụ ọkụ nke obi nʼihi Izrel na Juda chọọ ikpochapụ ha.)
Ngakho inkosi yabiza amaGibeyoni yathi kuwo: (AmaGibeyoni-ke ayengeyisiwo awabantwana bakoIsrayeli, kodwa ayengawensali yamaAmori; njalo abantwana bakoIsrayeli babefungile kuwo; uSawuli wasedinga ukuwatshaya ekutshisekeleni kwakhe abantwana bakoIsrayeli loJuda.)
3 Devid jụrụ ndị Gibiọn ajụjụ sị, “Gịnị ka m ga-emere unu? Gịnị ka m ga-eji kpuchie mmehie a e mere megide unu, ime ka unu gọzie ihe nketa Onyenwe anyị?”
Ngakho uDavida wathi kumaGibeyoni: Ngingalenzelani? Ngingayenza ngani inhlawulo yokuthula ukuze libusise ilifa leNkosi?
4 Ndị Gibiọn zara ya sị, “Nsogbu anyị na Sọl na ndị ụlọ ya abụghị ihe a ga-eji ọlaọcha maọbụ ọlaedo mezie. Anyị achọkwaghị ka onye ọbụla nʼIzrel nwụọ nʼihi anyị.” Devid sịrị ha, “Gịnị ka unu chọrọ ka m meere unu?”
AmaGibeyoni asesithi kuye: Kayisindaba yesiliva kumbe igolide loSawuli lendlu yakhe; futhi kakusikwethu ukubulala umuntu koIsrayeli. Wasesithi: Lokho elikutshoyo ngizalenzela khona.
5 Ha zara eze sị, “Kwere ka anyị wezuga nwoke ahụ wetaara anyị mbibi na ịla nʼiyi, onye ahụ mere ka anyị ghara inwe ebe obibi ọbụla nʼala Izrel.
Basebesithi enkosini: Umuntu owasiqedayo, owaceba emelene lathi ukuthi sichithwe singasali lakuwuphi umngcele wakoIsrayeli,
6 Ka akpọnye anyị ndị ikom asaa site nʼụmụ ya, ka anyị kwụgbuo ha nye Onyenwe anyị na Gibea Sọl, onye Onyenwe anyị họpụtara.” Eze zara sị, “Aga m akpọnye unu ha.”
kasinikwe amadoda ayisikhombisa emadodaneni akhe, njalo siwaphanyekele iNkosi eGibeya kaSawuli, okhethiweyo weNkosi. Inkosi yasisithi: Mina ngizalipha.
7 Ma eze nwere ọmịiko nʼahụ Mefiboshet nwa Jonatan, nwa Sọl, nʼihi ịgba ndụ dị nʼetiti ya na Jonatan nʼihu Onyenwe anyị.
Kodwa inkosi yamyekela uMefiboshethi indodana kaJonathani indodana kaSawuli ngenxa yesifungo seNkosi esasiphakathi kwabo, phakathi kukaDavida loJonathani indodana kaSawuli.
8 Ma eze kpọọrọ Amoni na Mefiboshet, ụmụ ndị ikom abụọ nke Rizpa, nwa nwanyị Aịa, bụ ndị ọ mụtaara Sọl. Nakwa ụmụ ndị ikom ise nke Merab nwa Sọl mụtara mgbe ọ bụ nwunye Adriel, nwa Bazilai onye Mehola.
Kodwa inkosi yathatha amadodana amabili kaRizipa indodakazi kaAya ayewazalele uSawuli, uArimoni loMefiboshethi, lamadodana amahlanu kadadewabo kaMikhali indodakazi kaSawuli ayewazalele uAdriyeli indodana kaBarizilayi umMehola,
9 O nyefere ha niile nʼaka ndị Gibiọn; ndị Gibiọn kwụbakwara ha nʼugwu nʼihu Onyenwe anyị. Ha asaa nwụrụ nʼotu ụbọchị na mmalite owuwe ihe ubi nke ọka balị.
yabanikela esandleni samaGibeyoni, asebaphanyeka entabeni phambi kweNkosi, njalo abayisikhombisa bawa kanyekanye. Babulawa ensukwini zokuvuna, ensukwini zakuqala ekuqaleni kokuvunwa kwebhali.
10 Ma Rizpa, nwa nwanyị Aịa were akwa mkpe gbasara onwe ya nʼelu nkume. O kweghịkwa ka anụ ufe bekwasị ha nʼehihie, maọbụ anụ ọhịa nʼabalị. Ọ nọgidere nʼebe ahụ site nʼoge mmalite owuwe ihe ubi tutu ruo mgbe mmiri bidoro izokwasị anụ ahụ ha.
URizipa indodakazi kaAya wasethatha isaka, wazendlalela lona phezu kwedwala, kusukela ekuqaleni kokuvuna kwaze kwathonta amanzi phezu kwabo evela emazulwini; kavumelanga inyoni zamazulu ukuthi zihlale phezu kwabo emini, lezilo zeganga ebusuku.
11 Mgbe a gwara Devid ihe Rizpa, nwa nwanyị Aịa, iko nwanyị Sọl mere,
Kwasekubikelwa uDavida lokho uRizipa indodakazi kaAya, umfazi omncane kaSawuli, ayekwenzile.
12 ọ gara chịkọtaa ọkpụkpụ Sọl na nke nwa ya Jonatan site nʼaka ndị nwe obodo Jebesh Gilead. Ha gara na nzuzo zuru ozu Sọl na Jonatan site nʼama dị na Bet-Shan, ebe ndị Filistia kwụbara ha, oge ha gburu Sọl na Gilboa.
UDavida wasehamba wayathatha amathambo kaSawuli lamathambo kaJonathani indodana yakhe kubahlali beJabeshi-Gileyadi ababewebile emdangeni weBeti-Shani, lapho amaFilisti ayebaphanyeke khona mhla amaFilisti etshaya uSawuli eGilibowa.
13 Devid sitere nʼebe ahụ chịkọtaa ọkpụkpụ Sọl na nke nwa ya nwoke Jonatan, chịkọtaakwa ọkpụkpụ ndị ahụ akwụgburu.
Wasesenyusa esuka lapho amathambo kaSawuli lamathambo kaJonathani indodana yakhe; basebeqoqa amathambo awababephanyekiwe.
14 Ha liri ọkpụkpụ Sọl na nke nwa ya nwoke Jonatan nʼobodo Zela nʼala Benjamin, nʼime ili Kish nna Sọl, meekwa ihe ndị ọzọ niile eze nyere nʼiwu. Mgbe nke a gasịrị, Chineke zara ekpere nʼihi ala ahụ.
Basebewangcwaba amathambo kaSawuli lakaJonathani indodana yakhe elizweni lakoBhenjamini eZela, engcwabeni likaKishi uyise. Benza konke inkosi eyayibalaye khona. Njalo emva kwalokho uNkulunkulu wancengeka ngenxa yelizwe.
15 Emesịa, ndị Filistia busokwara Izrel agha ọzọ. Devid na ndị agha ya pụkwara ịlụso ha ọgụ. Nʼoge ha na-alụ ọgụ a, ike gwụrụ Devid nke ukwuu.
AmaFilisti abuye aba lempi futhi loIsrayeli; uDavida wasesehla lenceku zakhe kanye laye, njalo balwa lamaFilisti; uDavida wasedinwa.
16 Mgbe ahụ, Ishibi-Benob, otu onye agbụrụ Rafa, onye ịdị arọ nke bronz dị nʼọnụ ùbe ya ruru kilogram atọ na ọkara, onye jikwa mma agha ọhụrụ, bịaruru Devid nso chọọ igbu ya.
UIshibi-Benobi owayengowabantwana besiqhwaga, osisindo somkhonto wakhe sasingamashekeli angamakhulu amathathu ethusi, wayebhince inkemba entsha, wathi uzamtshaya uDavida.
17 Ma Abishai nwa Zeruaya bịara nyere Devid aka, tigbuo onye Filistia ahụ. Site nʼoge ahụ, ndị ikom Devid ṅụrụ iyi sị ya, “Ị gaghị esokwa anyị gaa ibu agha ọzọ! Ka a ghara imenyụ oriọna Izrel.”
Kodwa uAbishayi indodana kaZeruya wamsiza, wamtshaya umFilisti wambulala. Khona abantu bakaDavida bafunga kuye besithi: Kawusayikuphuma impi lathi, hlezi ucitshe isibane sikaIsrayeli.
18 Mgbe oge gaturu, ha na ndị Filistia lụrụ agha ọzọ na Gob. Nʼoge a, Sibekai, onye Husha, gburu Saf, otu nʼime ndị agbụrụ Rafa.
Kwasekusithi emva kwalokhu kwaba lempi futhi lamaFilisti eGobi; khona uSibekayi umHusha watshaya uSafi, owayengowabantwana besiqhwaga.
19 Nʼagha ọzọ ha na ndị Filistia lụrụ na Gob, Elhanan nwa Jaịa onye Betlehem gburu nwanne Golaịat onye Gat, onye ùbe ya nwere osisi dị ogologo dịka nke onye na-ekwe akwa ji ekwe akwa.
Kwasekusiba lempi futhi lamaFilisti eGobi; uElihanani indodana kaJahari-Oregimi umBhethelehema, watshaya umfowabo kaGoliyathi umGiti, oluthi lomkhonto wakhe lwalunjengogodo lomaluki.
20 Nʼagha ọzọkwa, bụ nke a lụrụ na Gat, e nwere otu nwoke gbara oke dimkpa, nke nwere mkpịsịaka isii nʼaka ya ọbụla, nweekwa mkpịsịụkwụ isii nʼụkwụ ya ọbụla, ya bụ, a gụkọtaa ha niile, iri mkpịsịaka na mkpịsịụkwụ abụọ na anọ. Ọ bụkwa onye amụrụ nʼagbụrụ Rafa.
Njalo kwabuye kwaba lempi eGathi, lapho okwakulomuntu omude, owayeleminwe eyisithupha ezandleni zakhe, lamazwane ayisithupha ezinyaweni zakhe, kungamatshumi amabili lane ngenani; laye-ke wayezalelwe isiqhwaga.
21 Mgbe ọ kọchara Izrel, Jonatan nwa Shimei, nwanne nwoke Devid, gburu ya.
Lapho eseyisa uIsrayeli, uJonathani indodana kaShimeya, umfowabo kaDavida, wamtshaya.
22 Mmadụ anọ ndị a bụ ndị agbụrụ Rafa dị na Gat. Devid na ndị agha ya gburu ha niile.
Laba abane babezalelwe isiqhwaga eGathi; njalo bawa ngesandla sikaDavida langesandla senceku zakhe.
