1 Hagi Israeli vahe zamazeri haviza hunaku Sata'a antahintahi huteno, Israeli vahe hampri antahintahia Devitina ami'ne.
USathane wasesukuma emelana loIsrayeli, wavusa uDavida ukuthi abale uIsrayeli.
2 Ana higeno Deviti'a Joapune sondia vahetema ugote'naza kva vahetaminena amanage huno zamasmi'ne, maka Israeli vahetmima sauti kaziga Besebati'ma evuno noti kaziga Dani mopare'ma mani'naza vahetmina hamprita nampazmia erita eme naminke'na nama'a vahe mani'nazafi kaneno.
Ngakho uDavida wathi kuJowabi lakubabusi babantu: Hambani libale uIsrayeli kusukela eBherishebha kuze kufike koDani, lilethe kimi ukuze ngazi inani labo.
3 Hianagi Joapu'a amanage huno ana kenona hu'ne, Ra Anumzamo'a vahe'a mago'ane 100'a zupa zamazeri rama'a hanigeno, rama'a vahe fore hu'za manigahazanki, rania kini ne'moka nagafare ama zana hu'za nehaze? Zamagra kagri eri'za vahe mani'nazanki, nahigenka Israeli vahera zamavarenka kumipina zamante'za nehane?
UJowabi wasesithi: INkosi kayandise ebantwini bayo njengoba benjalo ngokulikhulu. Nkosi yami, nkosi, abasizo bonke yini izinceku zenkosi yami? Inkosi yami ikufunelani lokhu? Izakuba licala ngani kuIsrayeli?
4 Hianagi Deviti'a ana kea ontahi tutu huno huntegeno, maka Israeli mopafi Joapu'a vano nehuno vahera hamprino nampana eriteno, ete Jerusalemi kumatera e'no,
Kodwa ilizwi lenkosi laba lamandla phezu kukaJowabi. Ngakho uJowabi waphuma, wahambahamba phakathi kukaIsrayeli wonke; wafika eJerusalema.
5 ana vahe nampana Devitina eme ami'ne. Hagi maka Israeli agu'afima bainati kazinknoma erino ha'ma huga vahetmima hampri'neana 1milien 100tauseni'a vahetminki, Juda mopamofo agu'afina bainati kazinknoma erino ha'ma huga vahetmima hampri'neana, 470tauseni'a vahetami hampri'ne.
UJowabi wasenika uDavida inani lokubalwa kwabantu. Njalo wonke uIsrayeli wayengamadoda azinkulungwane ezizinkulungwane lezinkulungwane ezilikhulu ahwatsha inkemba; loJuda wayengamadoda azinkulungwane ezingamatshumi amane lamatshumi ayisikhombisa ahwatsha inkemba.
6 Hianagi ana vahe'ma hamprifina Livae naga'ene Benzameni nagara ohamprine. Na'ankure kini ne' Devitima hia kegura Joapu'a musena osuno anara hu'ne.
Kodwa uLevi loBhenjamini kababalanga phakathi kwabo, ngoba ilizwi lenkosi lalinengeka kuJowabi.
7 Hianagi Anumzamo'a vahe'ma hampri'naza zankura musena osuno, Israeli vahetmina knazana zamino zamazeri haviza hu'ne.
Njalo kwaba kubi emehlweni kaNkulunkulu mayelana lalindaba; ngakho wamtshaya uIsrayeli.
8 Ana higeno Deviti'a amanage huno Anumzamofona asmi'ne, nagrama vahe'ma hamprua zamo'a kagri kavurera rankumi hu'noe. Hianagi menina muse hugantoanki eri'za nekamo'na kumira eritrenanto. Na'ankure nagra negi nagi navu'nava hu'noe.
UDavida wasesithi kuNkulunkulu: Ngonile kakhulu ngoba ngenze linto. Kodwa khathesi, ake wedlulise ububi benceku yakho, ngoba ngenze ngobuthutha obukhulu.
9 Anagema higeno'a, Ra Anumzamo'a amanage huno Deviti kasnampa ne' Gatina asmi'ne,
INkosi yasikhuluma kuGadi umboni kaDavida isithi:
10 vunka Ra Anumzamo'a amanage hie hunka Devitina ome asamio, 3'a zantmi kaveri hugahuanki, anampinti mago huhamprio.
Hamba ukhulume kuDavida uthi: Itsho njalo iNkosi: Mina ngikubekela okuthathu; zikhethele okunye kukho engizakwenza kuwe.
11 Hagi anagema hutegeno'a Gati'a Devitinte eno amanage eme hu'ne, Ra Anumzamo'a amanage hie, kagri'ma kavesinia sua mago huhamprio,
UGadi wasefika kuDavida wathi kuye: Itsho njalo iNkosi: Zikhethele:
12 3'a kafufima agatontoma hu'za huhamprigahampi, 3'a ikampima ha' vahe'mo'za kazinteti'ma ha'ma eme hutamagatere zampi, 3'a knafima Ra Anumzamo'ma ankero vahe'ama huzmantesige'za Israeli mopafima vahe'ma knazama eme zami'niaza huhamprigahampi kagesa antahitenka, anampinti kavesi'nia su'a mago huhamprige'na Ra Anumzamofona ome asami'neno.
Kumbe iminyaka emithathu yendlala; loba inyanga ezintathu uqedwa ebusweni bezitha zakho lenkemba yezitha zakho ikufice; kumbe insuku ezintathu inkemba yeNkosi, ngitsho umatshayabhuqe wesifo, elizweni, lengilosi yeNkosi ichitha kuwo wonke umngcele wakoIsrayeli. Ngakho-ke bona ukuthi yimpendulo bani engizayibuyisela kongithumileyo.
13 Anagema higeno Deviti'a amanage huno Gatina asmi'ne, kema nasamina kegura nagra tusigna huanki, atregeno Ra Anumzamo'a agra'a azanuti nazano hunanteku'ma hania zana hunanteno. Na'ankure Agri asunku zamo'a ra hu'neanki, natrenigeno ama mopafi vahe'mo'a nazeri havizana osino.
UDavida wasesithi kuGadi: Ngicindezelwe kakhulu; ake ngiwele esandleni seNkosi, ngoba izisa zayo zinengi kakhulu; kodwa kangingaweli esandleni somuntu.
14 E'inage higeno Ra Anumzamo'a Israeli vahepina, kefo kri atregeno 70tauseni'a Israeli vene'ne zamahe fri'ne.
Ngakho iNkosi yathuma umatshayabhuqe wesifo koIsrayeli; kwasekusiwa abantu abazinkulungwane ezingamatshumi ayisikhombisa.
15 Hagi ana nehuno Anumzamo'a Jerusalemi kumara eri haviza hinogu, ankero huntegeno vu'ne. Hianagi ana ankeromo'ma Jerusalemi kuma'ma eri haviza hunaku'ma nehigeno'a, vahe'amofoma zamatama zamiaza Ra Anumzamo'ma negeno, asunku nehuno ana ankerona asmino, hago rama'a knaza zaminanki, ozamahenka zamatro! Hagi ana kema asmi'neana Jebusi vahepinti ne' Onani'ma witi neharea kumapi ana ankeromo'a otinegeno asmi'ne.
UNkulunkulu wasethuma ingilosi eJerusalema ukuyibhubhisa; njalo isayibhubhisa, iNkosi yabona yazisola ngalobobubi, yasisithi kuyo ingilosi ebhubhisayo: Kwanele, khathesi buyisa isandla sakho. Ingilosi yeNkosi yayimi-ke ebaleni lokubhulela likaOrinani umJebusi.
16 Hagi Deviti'a avuma kesga huno keana Ra Anumzamofo ankeromo'a monane mopanemofo kankamumpi otineno, bainati kazima'a azampi erineno Jerusalemi kumatega azana rusute'negeno ke'ne. E'i ana'ma higeno'a Deviti'ene maka ranra vahe'tmimo'zanena zamasunku kukenazmi hu'ne'za zamavugosaregati mopafi mase'naze.
UDavida wasephakamisa amehlo akhe, wabona ingilosi yeNkosi imi phakathi komhlaba lamazulu lenkemba yayo ehwatshiweyo esandleni sayo iyelulele phezu kweJerusalema. UDavida labadala begqoke-ke amasaka bathi mbo ngobuso babo.
17 Hagi Deviti'a Anumzamofona amanage huno asami'ne, Nagra huge'za vahera hampri'zage'na, nagra kagri kavurera tusi'a kefo navu'nava hu'na kumira hu'noe. Hianagi sipisipi afu'mo'ma hiaza huno ama vahe'mokizmia hazenkezmia omane'ne. Zamagra nahazenke hu'naze? Ra Anumzamoka karimpahezana atregeno nagrite'ene naganire'ene eno. Hianagi ama vaheka'a mago hazenkea osu'nazanki zamahe ofrio.
UDavida wasesithi kuNkulunkulu: Kakusimi yini othe kababale abantu? Yebo yimi owonileyo owenze okubi sibili. Kodwa lezizimvu zenzeni? Nkosi Nkulunkulu wami, isandla sakho ake sibe phezu kwami laphezu kwendlu kababa, kodwa hatshi phezu kwabantu bakho ukuthi bahlutshwe.
18 Anagema higeno'a Ra Anumzamofo ankeromo'a Gatina amanage huno asmi'ne, kagra vunka Devitina amanage hunka ome asmio, Jebusi ne' Onani'ma witi honama neharea kumapi marerinka Ra Anumzamofo kresramna vu ita ome tro huo hunka ome asamio.
Ingilosi yeNkosi yasisithi kuGadi katshele uDavida ukuthi uDavida kenyuke ayekwakhela iNkosi ilathi ebaleni lokubhulela likaOrinani umJebusi.
19 Higeno Deviti'a Ra Anumzamo'ma Gati'ma asamigeno'ma Ra Anumzamofo agifima eme asmia kea amage anteno, ana zana ome tro hunaku mareri'ne.
UDavida wasesenyuka ngelizwi likaGadi alikhuluma ngebizo leNkosi.
20 Hagi Onani'a witi hona'a refuzafupeno neharereti ana ankerona rukrahe huno ke'ne. Hagi 4'a ne' mofavre'ramima'amo'zama agri'enema mani'ne'za witima nehararetira ana ankeroma nege'za koro fre'za ome fraki'naze.
UOrinani enyemukula wabona ingilosi; lamadodana akhe amane ayelaye acatsha. UOrinani wayebhula-ke ingqoloyi.
21 Hagi Onani'ma mani'nere Deviti'a egeno, Onani'a negeno witima nehareretira atreno vuno avugosaregati mopafi umaseno ragi ami'ne.
UDavida esefika kuOrinani, uOrinani wakhangela wambona uDavida, waphuma ebaleni lokubhulela, wakhothamela uDavida ngobuso emhlabathini.
22 Hagi anante Deviti'a amanage huno Onanina asmi'ne, witi honama neharana kumaka'a namige'na, knare mizanteti miza hu'na Ra Anumzamofontegama kresramnavu ita tro hanenkeno, krireti'ma vahe'ma zamazeri havizama nehia knazana eri atreno.
UDavida wasesithi kuOrinani: Nginika indawo yebala lokubhulela ukuze ngakhele iNkosi ilathi kuyo; nginike yona ngemali egcweleyo, ukuze inhlupheko imiswe ebantwini.
23 Higeno Onani'a Devitina amanage huno asmi'ne, kini nera ranimoka, amne erinka nazano hunaku'ma hanana zana huo. Hagi Kresramanama vanana zana nagra bulimakao afura negami'na, witi honama refuzafu'nepoa zafaramina kamisugenka tevea hanavazinka Kresramana vugahane. Hagi witi ofama hanana witiramina nagrake'za maka kamisugenka ofa hugahane.
UOrinani wasesithi kuDavida: Zithathele, inkosi yami inkosi kayenze okuhle emehlweni ayo; khangela, ngiyanika inkabi zibe yiminikelo yokutshiswa, lezimbulo zibe zinkuni, lengqoloyi ibe ngumnikelo wokudla. Ngiyanika konke.
24 Hianagi Deviti'a amanage huno Onanina asmi'ne, i'o, nagra knare mizanteti mika zanka'a mizasegahue. Hagi nagrama amuho hunama eri fore'ma osu'nesua zana kagripintira erige, amnea anazana eri'na Ra Anumzamofontega tevefima kre fananene hu ofa osugahue.
Kodwa inkosi uDavida yathi kuOrinani: Hatshi, kodwa ngizathenga lokuthenga ngemali egcweleyo; ngoba kangiyikuthathela iNkosi okwakho, loba nginikele iminikelo yokutshiswa ngaphandle kwentengo.
25 Anage nehuno Deviti'a kna'amo'a 7kilo hu'nea goli Onanina amino witi honama neharea kuma'a mizase'ne.
UDavida wasemnika uOrinani ngaleyondawo amashekeli angamakhulu ayisithupha egolide ngesisindo.
26 Hagi ana kumapi Deviti'a Ra Anumzamofo kre sramnavu ita trohuno tevefima kre fananehu ofane, arimpa fru ofanena kresramna vu'ne. Hagi Deviti'ma nunamuma higeno'a, Ra Anumzamo'a Deviti nunamuna nentahino, monafinti teve atregeno eramino ana ofama kre sramnavu itare'ma me'neana eme tefanane hu'ne.
UDavida waseyakhela khona iNkosi ilathi, wanikela iminikelo yokutshiswa leminikelo yokuthula, wayibiza iNkosi; yasimphendula ngomlilo ovela emazulwini phezu kwelathi lomnikelo wokutshiswa.
27 Ana hutegeno Ra Anumzamo'a ankeromofona asamigeno, bainati kazima'a anoma'afi ete vazinte'ne.
INkosi yasilaya ingilosi; yasibuyisela inkemba yayo esikhwameni sayo.
28 Hagi Deviti'ma keama Jebusi ne' Onani'ma witima neharea kumapima Ra Anumzamo'ma nunamuma'ama antahino nonama huntegeno'a, anante ofaramina kresramna vu'ne.
Ngalesosikhathi uDavida esebonile ukuthi iNkosi imphendule ebaleni lokubhulela likaOrinani umJebusi, wanikela khona imihlatshelo.
29 E'ina knafina Ra Anumzamofo seli mono noma Mosese'ma hagege kokampima ki'nea mono none, Kresramana vu itanena mono'ma nehaza kumate Gibioni me'ne.
Ngoba ithabhanekele leNkosi uMozisi ayelenze enkangala lelathi lomnikelo wokutshiswa ngalesosikhathi kwakusendaweni ephakemeyo eGibeyoni.
30 Ana hu'negu Deviti'a Gibionia vuno Anumzamofona avesizana ome antahigeno onke'ne. Na'ankure Ra Anumzamofo ankeromofo bainati kazinku koro huno ovu'ne.
Kodwa uDavida wayengelakho ukuhamba phambi kwalo ukudinga uNkulunkulu, ngoba wethuswa yinkemba yengilosi yeNkosi.
