2 Samue 10

1 Hagi mago'a knama evutegeno'a Amoni kini ne' Nahasi'a fritegeno, nemofo Hanuni agri nona erino kinia mani'ne.

Kwathi emva kwesikhathi, inkosi yama-Amoni yafa, kwathi uHanuni indodana yayo waba yinkosi esikhundleni sayo.

2 Hagi Hanuni nefa Nahasi'ma frigeno'a Deviti'a agesama antahiana, knare avu'ava hunante'nere, nagra knare navu'nava huntegahue huno nentahino, Deviti'a asunku ke atrentege'za Hanunina ome asami'naku Deviti eri'za vahe'amo'za vu'naze. Hianagi Deviti eri'za vahe'mo'zama Amoni mopafima unefrageno'a,

UDavida wacabanga wathi, “Ngizakuba lomusa kuHanuni indodana kaNahashi, njengoyise owayelomusa kimi.” Ngakho uDavida wathuma izithunywa ukuyakhalela uHanuni ngoyise. Kwathi abantu bakaDavida sebefikile elizweni lama-Amoni,

3 Amoni kumate kva vahe'mo'za ra zamimofo Hanunina asami'za, Kagrama kagesama antahinana Devitia negafanku antahinemino asunku ke atregantege'za tamage hu'za eri'za e'nafi? I'o zamagra rankumatifi efre'za afure'za nege'za, ke eri'za vanage'za, ha' eme huragatere'za mopati erinaku e'naze.

izikhulu zama-Amoni zathi kuHanuni inkosi yazo, “Kambe ucabanga ukuthi uDavida uyamhlonipha uyihlo ngokuthuma izithunywa ukuthi zizokukhalela na? UDavida kazithumanga ukuba zizekhangela idolobho zilihlole njalo zihluthune umbuso na?”

4 Hagi anagema hazageno'a Deviti eri'za vahetamina Hanuni'a zamazeriteno, zamagi zamazokara hare atupa hunezamanteno, kenazamia zamariga avamenteti aheragato huteno, huzmantege'za ete vu'naze.

Ngakho uHanuni wabamba izithunywa zikaDavida, waziphuca ingxenye yezindevu zomunye lomunye wabo, waquma izigqoko zazo phakathi ezinqeni, wasezixotsha.

5 Hagi ana kema Deviti'ma nentahino'a, eri'za vahe'a huzmanteno anage hu'ne, Tusi'a zamagaze hugahianki ome zamasaminke'za Jeriko mani'nenkeno zamagi zamazokara hagetenke'za eho.

Kwathi uDavida esekutsheliwe lokhu wathuma izithunywa ukuyahlangabeza abantu labo ngoba babeyangiswe kakhulu. Inkosi yathi, “Hlalani eJerikho indevu zenu zize zikhule beselibuya-ke.”

6 Hagi Deviti'ma arimpama ahea kema Amoni vahe'mo'zama nentahi'za, mopafi vanoma hu'za ha'ma nehaza Aramia sondia vahera Bet-rehobu kumateti'ene Zoba Kumatetira 20 tauseni'a zagoreti mizase'za nezamavare'za, 1tauseni'a sondia vahe Ma'aka kini ne'mofo sondia vahepintira nezamavare'za, 12 tauseni'a sondia vahe Tob mopafintira zamavare'naze.

Kwathi ama-Amoni esebonile ukuthi ayeseliphunga elibi emakhaleni kaDavida, aqhatsha izinkulungwane ezingamatshumi amabili zamabutho ama-Aramu ahamba ngezinyawo evela eBhethi-Rehobhi kanye leZobha, ndawonye lenkosi yaseMahakha labantu abayinkulungwane, labanye abazinkulungwane ezilitshumi lambili abavela eThobhi.

7 Hagi Deviti'a anankema nentahino'a Joapune, mika hanavenentake sondia vahe'a huzamantege'za ha' ome huzamantenaku vu'naze.

Uthe ekuzwa lokho, uDavida wathumela uJowabi kanye lamabutho akhe wonke.

8 Hagi Amoni sondia vahe'mo'za ha' hunaku ranku'ma zamimofo kahante emeri atru nehazageno, Aramu sondia vahe'ma Zoba kumate'ene, Rehobu kumate vahe'mo'zane, Tob kumate ne, Ma'aka kinimofo sondia vahe'mo'za ha' hunaku kuma'mofo fegi'a agupofi emanimpi hu'naze.

Ama-Amoni aphuma amisa impi ekungeneni kwesango ledolobho lawo, lapho ama-Aramu aseZobha kanye leRehobhi labantu beThobhi kanye leMahakha babebodwa egangeni.

9 Hagi Joapuma ome keama ha' vahe'mo'zama tarefima avugane amefi'enema manimpima hunazageno negeno'a, Israeli sondia vahe'mokizmi agu'afinti hanave sondia vahetamina ha'ma hanagu zamazeri retro nehuno, Aramu vahe'moki'zmima ha'ma huzmante'nagu agra'a ugota huzmanteno zamavareno vu'ne.

UJowabi wabona ukuthi kwakulamaviyo amabutho phambi kwakhe langemva kwakhe, ngakho wakhetha amanye amaqhawe athenjiweyo ko-Israyeli wabahlela ukuba bamelane lama-Aramu.

10 Hagi maka sondia vahera Joapu'a nefu Abisai azampi antegeno, kegava huzamantege'za Amoni vahe ha' huzamantenaku vu'naze.

Amanye amabutho ayesele wathi kawalawulwe ngu-Abhishayi umfowabo, wabahlela ukuthi bamelane lama-Amoni.

11 Hagi Joapu'a nefuna asamino, Aramu vahe'mo'zama hanaveti'za ha'ma hurantesageta, tamagra eta eme taza hugahaze. Hianagi tamagri'ma Amoni vahe'mo'zama hanaveti'za ha'ma huramantesageta, tagra vuta ome tamaza hugahune.

UJowabi wathi, “Nxa ama-Aramu elamandla kakhulu kulami, uzengihlenga; kodwa nxa ama-Amoni elamandla kakhulu kulawe, ngizakuzakuhlenga.

12 Hagi korora osu hanavetinketa vahetigu'ene Ra Anumzantimofo rankumaku'ene hara hamneno. Hagi Ra Anumzamofo agri'a avesizamo efore hanie.

Qina, kasilwe ngesibindi silwela abantu bakithi lemizi kaNkulunkulu wethu. UThixo uzakwenza lokho okufaneleyo njengokubona kwakhe.”

13 Hagi anagema huteno'a Joapu'a sondia vahe'ane vu'za Aramu vahe'ma ha'ma ome huzmantage'za ana vahe'mo'za atre'za fre'za vu'naze.

Ngakho uJowabi lamabutho ayelaye baqhubeka ukuba balwe lama-Aramu, asebaleka phambi kwakhe.

14 Hagi Amoni vahe'mo'zama kageno, Aramu vahe'mo'zama atre'za frazageno'a, zamagranena Abisaianku koro fre'za rankuma'mofo agu'afinka ufre'naze. Hagi ha'ma vagaregeno'a, Joapu'a ete Jerusalemi vu'ne.

Kuthe ama-Amoni ebona ukuthi ama-Aramu ayebaleka, ebaleka phambi kuka-Abhishayi aya phakathi kwedolobho. Ngakho uJowabi waphenduka ekulweni lama-Amoni waya eJerusalema.

15 Hagi ana hutege'za Aramu vahe'mo'za kazama, Israeli vahe'mo'zama ha'ma huzmagaterazage'za maka sondia vahera zamazeri atru hu'naze.

Kwathi ama-Aramu ebona ukuthi ehlulwe ngama-Israyeli, aqoqana futhi.

16 Hagi kini ne' Hadadezeri'a mago'a vahe huzmantege'za vu'za, Aramu vahe'ma Yufretisi timofo kantu kazigama nemaniza vahera ome ke hige'za e'naze. Hagi ana sondia vahe'mo'za Helamu emeri atru hazageno, Hadadezeri sondia vahete ugota kva ne' Sobaki'a ana sondia vahetera ugagota huzmante'ne.

UHadadezeri wabiza ama-Aramu ayengaphetsheya koMfula uYufrathe; aya eHelamu loShobhakhi umlawuli wamabutho kaHadadezeri lamabutho ewakhokhele.

17 Hagi ana'ma hazanke'ma Deviti'ma nentahino'a Israeli sondia vahera zamavarege'za Jodani tina takahe'za kantu kaziga Helamu vu'naze. Hagi Aramu vahe'mo'za ha' hunaku ome retro hu'za manimpi hute'za, Devitine Israeli vahera hara huzmante'naze.

Kwathi uDavida esekutsheliwe lokhu, waqoqa bonke abako-Israyeli, wachapha uJodani waya eHelamu. Ama-Aramu aviva ukuba ahlangane loDavida asesilwa laye.

18 Hianagi Israeli vahe'mo'za hara huzmagatere'za, ana zupa Deviti'ene sondia vahe'amo'za, karisifima vano nehu'za ha'ma nehaza sondia vahera 700'a nezamahe'za, mopafima vanoma nehu'za ha'ma nehaza sondia vahera 40 tauseni'a nezamahe'za, ugagota sondia nera Sobakina ahe'naze.

Kodwa abaleka phambi kuka-Israyeli, njalo uDavida wabulala abatshayeli bezinqola zabo zempi abangamakhulu ayisikhombisa lamabutho ahamba ngezinyawo azinkulungwane ezingamatshumi amane. Wagalela loShobhakhi umlawuli webutho lawo, wafela khonapho.

19 Hagi Hadadezerima eme azama hu'za ha'ma hu'naza kini vahe'mo'zama kazageno, Israeli sondia vahe'mo'zama ha'ma huzmageterage'za, ana kini vahe'mo'za hara erifru hu'za Israeli vahe'mokizmi zamagorga mani'naze. Ana hazageno Aramu vahe'mo'za Amoni vahe'ma zamaza hu'za ha'ma huzankura koro hu'naze.

Kwathi amakhosi wonke ayezinceku zikaHadadezeri ebona ukuthi ayesehlulwe ngu-Israyeli, enza ukuthula labako-Israyeli aba ngaphansi kombuso wabo. Ngakho ama-Aramu esaba ukusiza ama-Amoni futhi.
