1 Hagi mago'a kna evutegeno, Amoni vahe kini ne' Nahasi'a frigeno nemofo Hanuni agri nona erino kinia mani'ne.
Kwathi emva kwesikhathi, uNahashi inkosi yama-Amoni wafa, ngakho indodana yakhe yathatha isikhundla yaba yinkosi.
2 Hagi Deviti'a amanage hu'ne, nagra Hanunina knare avu'avaza huntesnue, na'ankure nafa'amo Nahasi'a nagrira knare avu'ava kora hunante'ne. Anage nehuno Hanunina nefa'ma fri'nea zante Hanuni zamasunku ke ome huntehogu kato vahera Deviti'a huzmante'ne. Hagi ana'ma hige'za Deviti eri'za vahe'amo'za nefa'ma frigeno'ma mani'nea zante Hanuni kenaku Amoni vahe mopafi e'naze.
UDavida wacabanga wathi, “Ngizakuba lomusa kuHanuni indodana kaNahashi ngoba uyise wayelomusa kimi.” Ngakho uDavida wathuma izithunywa ukuyakhalela uHanuni ngoyise. Izithunywa zikaDavida zithe zifika kuHanuni ukuthi zimkhalele elizweni lama-Amoni,
3 Hianagi Amoni kumate kva vahe'mo'za amanage hu'za Hanunina asmi'naze, Kagrama antahinana ama'i vahe'tmima Deviti'ma huzmantege'zma azana, negafa'ma fri'nea zante zamasunku ke hugantenaku aze hunka kagesa antahino? I'o, ha' eme hurante'naku mopatia afure'za kenaku e'naze.
izikhulu zama-Amoni zathi kuHanuni, “Wena nkosi unakana ukuthi uDavida uhlonipha uyihlo ngokuthuma izithunywa zokukukhalela na? Amadoda akhe la kawasizinhloli ezithunywe ukuzahlola umumo welizwe ukuze ahluthune umbuso na?”
4 Hazageno Hanuni'a Deviti'ma huzmantege'zama e'naza vahetmina zamazerino zamagi zamazokara harenezmanteno, zamariga avamenteti kenazmia ahe vatro hutere huteno huzmantege'za ete vu'naze.
Ngenxa yalokho uHanuni wabamba izithunywa zikaDavida, waziphuca, waquma izigqoko zazo zafika ezibunu, wasezixotsha.
5 Hagi ana nanekema Devitima eme asamizageno'a, eri'za vahe'arami huzmantege'za e'za amanage hu'za ana vahetmina eme zamasami'naze, kini ne'mo'a amanage hie, Jeriko kumate mani'nenkeno tamagitamazoka'mo'a hagetena eho huno hu'ne. Na'ankure zamagrira tusi'a zamagazema hu avu'ava'ma huzmantegeno zamagazema hiazanku anagea hu'ne.
Kwathi uDavida esekuzwile lokho wathuma izithunywa ukuba zihlangabeze izithunywa, njengoba zazihlukuluzwe zayangiswa kakhulu. Inkosi yathi, “Lina hlalani eJerikho indevu zenu zize zikhule, libe selisiza ngapha.”
6 Hagi Amoni vahe'mo'zane, Hanuni'enema ke'za antahi'za hazama zamagrama haza avu'avamo'ma Devitima azeri arimpama nehegeno'a, karisifima mani'neza zamaza hu'za Devitima ha'ma hunte'naza vahetamine karisiraminema mizasenazana Messopotamia kumateti'ene, Aram-ma'aka kumateti'ene, Zoba kumatetira, kna'amo'a 30 tausen hu'nea silva zagoreti ome mizase'naze.
Kwathi ama-Amoni esebonile ukuthi asenuka emakhaleni kaDavida, uHanuni lama-Amoni bathumela amathalenta esiliva ayinkulungwane okuqhatsha izinqola zokulwa labatshayeli bazo e-Aramu Naharayimu, le-Aramu-Mahakha laseZobha.
7 Hagi ana zago'a ome zami'za 32tauseni'a karisiraminki, Ma'aka kumate kini ne'ene maka sondia vahe'araminena zamavare'za e'za, Medeba kumate seli nona eme ki'za mani'naze. Hagi anama nehazage'za Amoni sondia vahe'mo'za zamagra rankumapinti Israeli vahe ha' huzmante'naku atiramiza e'naze.
Baqhatsha izinqola zokulwa labatshayeli bazo abazinkulungwane ezingamatshumi amathathu lambili, banxusa lenkosi uMahakha lamabutho akhe, yona eyeza yazakanisa eMedebha labantu bayo, ama-Amoni lawo eqoqana emadolobheni awo aphuma ukuya empini.
8 Hagi Deviti'ma ana'ma haza nanekema nentahino'a, Joapune maka hankave sondia vahetmina huzmantege'za ha' ome huzmantenaku vu'naze.
Uthe ekuzwa lokho uDavida, wathumela uJowabi kanye lamabutho akhe wonke.
9 Hagi Amoni kumate sondia vahe'mo'za rankumapintira etirami'za rankumamofo kafante emanimpi hu'za ha hunaku otizageno, mago'a kini vahe'mo'zama zamazama hunaku'ma e'naza kini vahe'mo'zane, sondia vahe'mo'zanena hahunaku zamagranena hofa agupofi eme retro hu'za oti'naze.
Ama-Amoni asondela esehlome aphelela emangenelweni edolobho lakibo, kanti amakhosi ayenxusiwe ayejamile lawo wodwa egangeni.
10 Hagi Joapu'ma keama ha' vahe'amozama amigane avuganema maninpi hu'za otizageno, knare'ma hu'za ha'ma nehaza hankave sondia vahetmina huzmantege'za Aramu sondia vahe'ene hara ome hunaku manimpi hu'za oti'naze.
UJowabi wabona ukuthi kwakulamaviyo amabutho phambi kwakhe langemva kwakhe, ngakho wakhetha amanye amaqhawe athenjiweyo ko-Israyeli wabahlela ukuba bamelane lama-Aramu.
11 Hagi mago'ama maniza sondia vahetmina negna Abisai azampi antegeno, Abisai'a zamavareno Amoni vahe'mokizmi hara huzmantenaku manimpi hu'naze.
Amanye amabutho ayesele wathi kawalawulwe ngu-Abhishayi umfowabo, wona-ke ajamelana lama-Amoni.
12 Ana nehuno Joapu'a negna Abisaina amanage huno asmi'ne, Siria ha' vahe'mo'zama tusiza hu'za hankavema tiza ha'ma hunante'snageta eta eme naza hiho. Hagi Amoni vahe'mo'zama kagri'ma hankavetiza ha'ma hugantesnagena, nagra e'na eme kaza hugahue.
UJowabi wasesithi, “Nxa ama-Aramu ezangikhulela, wena uzangihlomulela; kanti-ke nxa ama-Amoni ezakukhulela lami ngizakuhlomulela.
13 Hagi korora osunka hankavetigeta, vahetiagu'ene Anumzanti'amofo rankumaku'ene ha' vaheti'aramina hara huzmantamnena, Ra Anumzamo'ma kesigenoma knare'ma haniazana amne agra hugahie.
Qina, kasilwe ngesibindi silwela abantu bakithi lemizi kaNkulunkulu wethu. UThixo uzakwenza lokho okufaneleyo njengokubona kwakhe.”
14 Hagi Joapu'ene sondia vahe'amozama Siria sondia vahetmima ha'ma ome huzmantage'za, ana Siria vahe'mo'za atre'za fre'naze.
Ngakho uJowabi lamabutho ayelawo wasuka ukuyakulwa lama-Aramu, wona ahle abaleka phambi kwakhe.
15 Hagi Amoni sondia vahe'mo'zama kazama Siria sondia vahe'mo'zama koro'ma frage'za, zamagranena atre'za Abisainku koro hu'za fre'za rankumamofo agu'afi ufre'naze. Anama hazageno'a Joapu'a atreno Jerusalemi kumate vu'ne.
Kuthe ama-Amoni ebona ukuthi ama-Aramu ayabaleka, abaleka lawo phambi kuka-Abhishayi umfowabo kaJowabi, abuyela phakathi kwedolobho. Ngakho uJowabi wasebuyela eJerusalema.
16 Hagi Siria sondia vahe'mo'zama kazama, Israeli sondia vahe'mo'zama ha'ma huzmagaterage'za, Yufretisi timofo kantu kazigama mani'naza sondia vahetmintega eme zamazama hanagura kato vahe huzmantazage'za kea eri'za vu'naze. Hagi e'i ana sondia vahetmimofo ugota kva vahezmia Sofakikino, agra Hadadezeri sondia vahetamintera ugota kva ne' mani'ne.
Kwathi ama-Aramu esebonile ukuthi ehlulwe ngama-Israyeli, athuma izithunywa zayaphendula ama-Aramu ayengaphetsheya koMfula, kanye loShofaki umlawuli wamabutho kaHadadezeri lamabutho ayekhokhele.
17 Hagi anankema Deviti'ma nentahino'a, mika Israeli sondia vahetmina zamazeri retru nehuno zamavareno Jodani tina takaheno kantu kaziga ha' ome huzmante'naku vu'naze. Hagi Deviti'ma kantu kazigama vigeno'a, Siria sondia vahe'mo'za hahunte'naze.
Kwathi uDavida esekutsheliwe lokhu, waqoqa bonke abako-Israyeli, wachapha uJodani, wajamelana labo ngamaviyo ayeqondene laye. UDavida walungiselela amaviyo akhe ukudibana lama-Aramu empini, lakanye alwa lawo.
18 Hagi Siria sondia vahe'mo'za Israeli sondia vahetminkura koro frazageno, Deviti sondia vahe'mo'zama karisifima vano nehu'za ha'ma nehaza vahera 7tauseni'a vahe nezamahe'za, mopafima vano nehu'za ha'ma nehaza vahera 40tauseni'a nezmahe'za, ana sondia vahetmimofo kva ne' Sofakinena ana hapi ahe'naze.
Abaleka ebona u-Israyeli, ngakho uDavida wabulala abatshayeli bezinqola zokulwa abazinkulungwane eziyisikhombisa lamabutho ahamba ngezinyawo azinkulungwane ezingamakhulu amane. Waze wabulala loShofaki umlawuli wamabutho akhona.
19 Hagi Hadadezeri eri'za vahe'mo'zama kazama Israeli sondia vahe'mo'zama ha'ma huzmagaterazage'za, Devitinte e'za zamarimpa fruma hu'za manisaza naneke eme nehu'za agri agorga'a mani'zageno, Siria vahe'mo'za ru'enena Amoni vahetega eme ante'za zamaza osu'naze.
Kwathi izinceku zikaHadadezeri zibona ukuthi zehlulwe ngabako-Israyeli, zaxolisana loDavida, zathela kuye. Ngakho ama-Aramu awathandanga ukunceda ama-Amoni kusukela lapho.
