< 2 Samuel 6 >

1 Emesịa, Devid chịkọtara iri puku ndị agha Izrel atọ a zụziri azụzi,
UDavida wabuya wabuthanisa bonke abakhethiweyo koIsrayeli, inkulungwane ezingamatshumi amathathu.
2 Ya na ndị ikom ya niile gara Baala nʼime Juda, isi nʼebe ahụ bugota igbe ọgbụgba ndụ Chineke, nke akpọkwasịrị Aha ya, bụ aha Onyenwe anyị. Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile, onye na-anọkwasị nʼetiti cherubim.
UDavida wasesukuma wahamba labo bonke abantu ababelaye, besuka eBahala-Juda ukuze benyuse umtshokotsho kaNkulunkulu usuka lapho, obizo lawo libizwa ngebizo leNkosi yamabandla, ehlala phakathi kwamakherubhi phezu kwawo.
3 Ha dọkwasịrị igbe Chineke ahụ nʼelu ụgbọala ọhụrụ ehi na-adọkpụ, buputa ya site nʼụlọ Abinadab nke dị nʼelu ugwu nta. Ọ bụ Ụza na Ahio, ụmụ Abinadab, na-edu ụgbọala ọhụrụ ahụ,
Basebewukhweza umtshokotsho kaNkulunkulu enqoleni entsha, bewukhupha endlini kaAbinadaba eyayiseqaqeni; njalo uUza loAhiyo amadodana kaAbinadaba batshayela leyonqola entsha.
4 nke igbe ọgbụgba ndụ Chineke dị nʼelu ya, Ahio butere ụzọ na-aga nʼihu igbe ahụ.
Bayikhipha-ke endlini kaAbinadaba eyayiseqaqeni kanye lomtshokotsho kaNkulunkulu, njalo uAhiyo ehamba phambi komtshokotsho.
5 Devid na ndị Izrel weere ike ha niile na-aṅụ ọṅụ nʼihu Onyenwe anyị. Ha ji abụ, ụbọ akwara, opi, une na ogene na ihe egwu dị iche iche, dịka ịgba na ekwe na-eti egwu.
UDavida lendlu yonke yakoIsrayeli basebetshaya phambi kweNkosi ngazo zonke izinto zokutshaya zesihlahla sefiri, langamachacho, langezigubhu zezintambo, langezigujana, langamahlwayi, langezinsimbi ezincencethayo.
6 Mgbe ha rutere nʼebe ịzọcha ọka nke Nakọn, Ụza setịpụrụ aka ya, jide igbe ọgbụgba ndụ Chineke ahụ, nʼihi na ehi ahụ zọhiere ụkwụ.
Bathi befika esizeni sikaNakoni, uUza welulelaisandla sakhe emtshokotshweni kaNkulunkulu, wawubamba, ngoba inkabi zakhubeka.
7 Ma iwe Onyenwe anyị dị ọkụ megide Ụza, nʼihi omume enweghị nsọpụrụ o mere. Ya mere, Chineke tigburu ya. Ọ nwụọ nʼebe ahụ nʼakụkụ igbe Chineke.
Intukuthelo yeNkosi yasimvuthela uUza; uNkulunkulu wamtshaya khonapho ngenxa yalesisiphambeko; wasefela khonapho phansi komtshokotsho kaNkulunkulu.
8 Mgbe ahụ, iwe were Devid, nʼihi ọnụma Onyenwe anyị dakwasịrị Ụza. Ruo taa, a na-akpọ ebe ahụ Perez Ụza.
UDavida wasethukuthela ngoba iNkosi imfohlele uUza ngesikhala; waseyibiza leyondawo ngokuthi yiPerezi-Uza, kuze kube lamuhla.
9 Devid tụrụ egwu Onyenwe anyị nʼụbọchị ahụ. O kwuru sị, “Igbe ọgbụgba ndụ Onyenwe anyị ọ ga-esi aṅaa bịakwute m?”
UDavida waseyesaba iNkosi ngalolosuku, wathi: Umtshokotsho weNkosi uzakuza njani kimi?
10 O kweghị ebubata igbe ọgbụgba ndụ Onyenwe anyị ahụ nʼime obodo Devid, kama o bugara ya nʼụlọ Obed-Edọm, onye Git.
Ngakho uDavida kavumanga ukuwudlulisela kuye umtshokotsho weNkosi emzini kaDavida; kodwa uDavida wawuphambulela endlini kaObedi-Edoma umGithi.
11 Igbe ọgbụgba ndụ Onyenwe anyị nọrọ nʼụlọ Obed-Edọm, onye Git ọnwa atọ. Onyenwe anyị gọzikwara ya na ezinaụlọ ya niile.
Umtshokotsho weNkosi wasuhlala endlini kaObedi-Edoma umGithi inyanga ezintathu. INkosi yasimbusisa uObedi-Edoma lendlu yakhe yonke.
12 Mgbe a gwara eze bụ Devid si, “Onyenwe anyị agọziela ezinaụlọ Obed-Edọm na ihe niile o nwere, nʼihi igbe ọgbụgba ndụ Chineke.” Nʼihi nke a, Devid ji oke ọṅụ gaa nʼụlọ Obed-Edọm, nʼihi ibugote igbe ọgbụgba ndụ Chineke, buga nʼobodo Devid.
Kwasekubikelwa inkosi uDavida kwathiwa: INkosi ibusisile indlu kaObedi-Edoma lakho konke okwakhe ngenxa yomtshokotsho kaNkulunkulu. Ngakho uDavida wasehamba wenyusa umtshokotsho kaNkulunkulu ewususa endlini kaObedi-Edoma, ewusa emzini kaDavida ngentokozo.
13 Mgbe ndị bu igbe ọgbụgba ndụ Onyenwe anyị ahụ zọrọ nzọ ụkwụ isii; ọ na-eji oke ehi na nwa ehi gbara abụba chụọ aja.
Kwasekusithi lapho labo abathwele umtshokotsho weNkosi sebehambe izinyathelo eziyisithupha, wahlaba inkabi lokunonisiweyo.
14 Devid ji ike ya niile na-ete egwu nʼihu Onyenwe anyị. Ọ yi uwe efọọd e ji akwa ọcha dụọ nʼụbọchị ahụ,
UDavida wasegida ngamandla wonke phambi kweNkosi; uDavida wayebhince i-efodi yelembu elicolekileyo.
15 mgbe ya na ndị Izrel niile ji iti mkpu na ụda ịfụ opi ike na-ebubata igbe ọgbụgba ndụ Onyenwe anyị.
Ngokunjalo uDavida lendlu yonke yakoIsrayeli bawenyusa umtshokotsho weNkosi ngokumemeza langokukhala kophondo.
16 Mgbe ha bu igbe ọgbụgba ndụ Onyenwe anyị na-abata nʼobodo Devid, Mikal, nwa Sọl lepụrụ anya site na oghereikuku ụlọ. Mgbe ọ hụrụ eze Devid ka ọ na-awụli elu na-etekwa egwu nʼihu Onyenwe anyị, o ledara ya anya nʼime obi ya.
Kwasekusithi lapho umtshokotsho weNkosi ungena emzini kaDavida, uMikhali indodakazi kaSawuli walunguza ngewindi, wabona inkosi uDavida eseqa egida phambi kweNkosi; wameyisa enhliziyweni yakhe.
17 Ha bubatara igbe ọgbụgba ndụ Onyenwe anyị ahụ, guzobe ya nʼọnọdụ ya nʼime ụlọ ikwu nke Devid manyere maka ya. Devid chụrụ aja nsure ọkụ na aja udo nʼihu Onyenwe anyị.
Basebewungenisa umtshokotsho weNkosi, bawubeka endaweni yawo phakathi kwethente uDavida ayelimisele wona; uDavida wasenikela iminikelo yokutshiswa phambi kweNkosi leminikelo yokuthula.
18 Mgbe ọ chụsịrị aja nsure ọkụ na aja udo ndị a, ọ gọziri ndị Izrel nʼaha Onyenwe anyị, Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile.
Kwathi uDavida eseqedile ukunikela iminikelo yokutshiswa leminikelo yokuthula, wabusisa abantu ebizweni leNkosi yamabandla.
19 O nyekwara onye ọbụla nʼetiti igwe ndị Izrel niile ahụ, ma nwoke ma nwanyị, otu ogbe achịcha, ọkpụrụkpụ anụ na achịcha mkpụrụ osisi a mịkpọrọ amịkpọ. Ndị a niile lara, onye ọbụla nʼụlọ nke ya.
Wababela bonke abantu, ixuku lonke lakoIsrayeli, kusukela kwabesilisa kusiya kwabesifazana, ngulowo lalowo iqebelengwana lesinkwa, leqatha lenyama, lesinkwa sezithelo zevini ezonyisiweyo. Basebehamba abantu bonke, ngulowo lalowo emzini wakhe.
20 Mgbe Devid lọtara ka ọ gọzie ndị ụlọ ya, Mikal, ada Sọl pụtara izute ya, sị, “Lee ka eze Izrel si mee onwe ya onye dị ukwuu taa! Ọ gbara onwe ya ọtọ na mbara, nʼihu ndị ohu nwanyị nke ndị odibo ya dịka mmadụ efu.”
UDavida wasebuyela ukubusisa indlu yakhe. UMikhali indodakazi kaSawuli wasephuma ukuhlangabeza uDavida, wathi: Idunyiswe kangakanani inkosi yakoIsrayeli lamuhla, ezembule lamuhla phambi kwamehlo encekukazi zenceku zayo njengomunye wabayize ezembula lokuzembula!
21 Ma Devid zara Mikal sị ya, “Ọ bụ nʼihu Onyenwe anyị onye họpụtara m karịa nna gị maọbụ onye ọbụla ọzọ sitere nʼụlọ ya ka m tere egwu. E, Onyenwe anyị ahụ họpụtara m ịbụ onyendu Izrel, ndị nke ya. Nʼezie, aga m aga nʼihu ịkpa agwa dịka onye nzuzu nʼihi ịsọpụrụ Onyenwe anyị.
UDavida wasesithi kuMikhali: Ngaphambi kweNkosi, eyangikhetha phambi kukayihlo laphambi kwendlu yakhe yonke, yangimisa ukuthi ngibe ngumbusi phezu kwabantu beNkosi, phezu kukaIsrayeli; ngakho ngizadlala phambi kweNkosi.
22 E, aga m aga nʼihu ịghọ onye na-enweghị uche, na onye e weturu ala nʼanya onwe m. Ma ụmụ agbọghọ ndị ahụ i kwuru okwu ha, ha ga-asọpụrụ m!”
Ngisazadeleleka-ke kakhulu kulalokhu, ngehliselwe phansi emehlweni ami; kodwa ngezincekukazi okhulume ngazo, ngizadunyiswa yizo.
23 Mikal, ada Sọl amụtaghị nwa ọbụla ruo nʼoge ọnwụ ya.
Njalo uMikhali indodakazi kaSawuli kabanga lamntwana kwaze kwaba lusuku lokufa kwakhe.
