1 Hagi Zeruia nemofo Joapu'ma antahiama kini ne'mo'ma Absalomuma kenigu tusizama higeno'a,

UJowabi indodana kaZeruya wasenanzelela ukuthi inhliziyo yenkosi ikuAbisalomu.

2 Joapua mago'a vahe huzamantege'za Tekoa kumate vu'za, mago knare antahi'zane a' ome avre'za e'naze. Hagi Joapu'a ana ara asamino, Zamasunku hu'zama nentanizankna kukena haviza hunka, masavena ofrenka, ko'ma vahe frinegeno asunku huno za'zakna mani'nea a'mo'ma nehiaza huo.

UJowabi wasethumela eThekhowa ukuthi alande khona owesifazana ohlakaniphileyo, wathi kuye: Ake uzitshaye olilayo, ake ugqoke izigqoko zokulila, ungazigcobi ngamafutha, kodwa ube njengowesifazana oselilele ofileyo insuku ezinengi.

3 Ana hutesunka kini nete vunka ama hanua kea ome asamio, anage nehuno Joapu'a kini ne'ma asaminia nanekea ana ara asami'ne.

Ungene enkosini, ukhulume kuyo ngalindlela. UJowabi wasefaka amazwi emlonyeni wakhe.

4 Higeno Tekoati a'mo'a kini netema uhanatino'a, ome kepri humino avugati mopafi umase'neno amanage hu'ne, Muse hugantoanki kini ne'moka naza huo!

Lapho owesifazana umThekhowa ekhuluma enkosini, wathi mbo ngobuso bakhe emhlabathini, wakhothama, wathi: Siza, nkosi!

5 Higeno kini ne'mo'a antahigeno, nankna hazenke me'negenka nehane? Higeno ana a'mo kenona huno, Nagrira neneve'a frige'na kento a' mani'noe.

Inkosi yasisithi kuye: Ulani? Yena wasesithi: Sibili, ngingumfazi ongumfelokazi, lendoda yami yafa.

6 Hagi eri'za a'kamo'na tare ne' mofavre zanante'noankine hoza agupofi ha' ome nehakeno, vahe'mo'a zanazeri amnea osigeke, mago'mo'a mago'mofona ahe fri'ne.

Njalo incekukazi yakho yayilamadodana amabili, alwa womabili egangeni; kwakungelamlamuli phakathi kwawo; enye yasitshaya enye, yayibulala.

7 Hagi anama higeno'a maka tagri naga'mo'za oti'za nefuma ahe fria zante, ana risera ahe frisunkeno, nefazana erisanti oharegahie hu'za hu'naze. Hagi zamagra magoke mofavreni'a ahe fri'za nehazankino, nenave agine, naga'amofo zamagima erino maniga vahera ama mopafina omanigahie.

Khangela-ke, usendo lonke seluvukele incekukazi yakho, bathi: Nikela lowo owatshaya umfowabo wambulala, ukuthi simbulale ngenxa yempilo yomfowabo ambulalayo, sichithe lendlalifa. Ngalokho bacitshe ilahle lami eliseleyo, ukuze bangatshiyeli indoda yami ibizo lensali ebusweni bomhlaba.

8 Hagi kini nemo'a ana ara asamino, Nagra ama ana kegaga eri ante fatgo hugahuanki, kumakarega vuo.

Inkosi yasisithi kowesifazana: Yana endlini yakho; mina-ke ngizalaya ngawe.

9 Hianagi Tekoati amo'a kini nera asamino, Kini ne' ranimoka, atregeno ana knazamo'a nagrite'ene nenfa nagate'ene meno. Hagi kagrane naga ka'anena knazana e'origahaze.

Owesifazana umThekhowa wasesithi enkosini: Nkosi yami, nkosi, icala kalibe phezu kwami laphezu kwendlu kababa; kodwa inkosi lesihlalo sayo sobukhosi kube msulwa.

10 Hagi kini ne'mo'a huno, Iza'o ana nanekema hugantenimofona avrenka nagrite egeno, mago'enena ke hakarea huoganteno.

Inkosi yasisithi: Okhuluma ulutho kuwe, umlethe kimi, njalo kayikuphinda akuthinte futhi.

11 Hagi ana a'mo'a kenona huno, Muse hugantoanki, kini ne'moka Ra Anumzana kagri Anumzankamofo agifi huvempa hunka hugeno, vahe'mo'za mofavre'nia ahe ofriho. Hagi kini ne'mo'a kenona huno, Tamage hu'na kasefa'ma huno'ma mani'nea Ra Anumzamofo agifi huankino mago'mo'a ana mofavrea mago'azana huontegahie.

Wasesithi: Inkosi ake ikhumbule iNkosi uNkulunkulu wayo ukuthi umphindiseli wegazi angabe esachitha, hlezi bachithe indodana yami. Yasisithi: Kuphila kukaJehova, kakuyikuwela emhlabathini olulodwa unwele lwendodana yakho.

12 Anante ana a'mo'a huno, Natrege'na mago'ane kini nemoka kantahiga'neno, higeno kini ne'mo'a huno, Amne huo.

Owesifazana wasesithi: Incekukazi yakho ake ikhulume ilizwi enkosini yami inkosi. Yasisithi: Khuluma.

13 Higeno ana a'mo'a kini ne' Devitina eri ante ama huno asami'ne, Nahigenka Anumzamofo vahetera e'inahu antahintahia retro hu'nane? Hagi menima nagri'ma nasami'na nanekea, kagraka'a havizama hu'nana zana eri ama hunka keaga hugantane. Na'ankure negamofoma kuma'ma atre'noma fregenka omesiema hu'nana mofavrea, ete avrankeno ome'ne.

Owesifazana wasesithi: Pho, unakaneleni okunje ngabantu bakaNkulunkulu? Ngokukhuluma lindaba inkosi injengolecala, ngokuthi inkosi kayibuyisanga oxotshiweyo wayo.

14 Na'ankure mopafima tima tagiramige'za ete ana tima e'orizankna huta frigahune. Hu'neanagi vahe'mota havizama hunkeno'a, Anumzamo'a tahe nofrianki, mago'a kanku hakeno atre'zama frazage'za omesnazema hu'naza vahera, ete agrarega zamavare tava'o nehie.

Ngoba kumele sife, sinjengamanzi achithekele emhlabathini angabuthwanga; kodwa uNkulunkulu kayikususa impilo, kodwa uzacabanga amacebo ukuthi angalahli kuye oxotshiweyo.

15 Hagi kini ne' ranimoka, naza hugahane hu'na kagrite e'noe. Na'ankure vahe'mo'za nazeri kore hazage'na, kini ne'mo'a naza hugahie hu'na nagra hu'noe.

Ngakho-ke, njengoba ngizile ukukhuluma linto enkosini, inkosi yami, kungoba abantu bangesabisile; incekukazi yakho yasisithi: Khathesi ngizakhuluma lenkosi; mhlawumbe inkosi izakwenza ilizwi lencekukazi yayo.

16 Hagi kini ne'moka, eri'za a'kamo'na kea antahinaminka Anumzamo'ma tamigeta erisantima hare'nona mopafintira nagri'ene nenamofonema tahe fanenema hu'za nehaza vahe zamazampintira tagu'vazigahane.

Ngoba inkosi izakuzwa, ukukhulula incekukazi yayo esandleni somuntu ofuna ukuchitha mina kanye lendodana yami elifeni likaNkulunkulu.

17 Hu'negu kini ne' ranimoka kemo'a narimpa fru namigahie. Na'ankure kini ne'moka kagra Anumzamofo ankero kna hu'nenka, havizane knare'zanena refako nehane. Hagi Ra Anumzana, kagri Anumzamo'a kagri'ene manisnie.

Incekukazi yakho yasisithi: Akuthi ilizwi lenkosi yami, inkosi, libe ngelokuthula, ngoba njengengilosi kaNkulunkulu, injalo inkosi yami, inkosi, ukuzwa okubi lokuhle. Ngakho iNkosi uNkulunkulu wakho kayibe lawe.

18 Higeno kini ne'mo huno, nagra mago zanku kantahige'za huanki kagra mago'zana erifra okinka nasamio, higeno ana a'mo'a huno, kini ne' ranimoka amane nantahigo.

Inkosi yasiphendula yathi kowesifazana: Ake ungangifihleli indaba engizayibuza kuwe. Owesifazana wasesithi: Ake ikhulume inkosi yami, inkosi.

19 Hagi kini ne'mo huno, Kagrira Joapu hugantegenka nagritera enampi? Higeno ana a'mo kenona huno, Kini nera ranimoka, nankna hu'na eri frakigahue? Hagi kagrama kasefa'ma hunka mani'nenankeno'a, mago'mo'e huno mago'azana kagritera eri fraraokigahie. Tamage, eri'za nekamo Joapu ome asamio huno hunantea ke eme kasami'noe.

Inkosi yasisithi: Isandla sikaJowabi silawe yini kukho konke lokhu? Owesifazana wasephendula wathi: Kuphila komphefumulo wakho, nkosi yami, nkosi, isibili kakho ongaya ngakwesokunene langakwesokhohlo asuke lakuyiphi into inkosi yami, inkosi, eyikhulumileyo; ngoba inceku yakho uJowabi, yona yangilaya, yiyo eyafunza incekukazi yakho wonke lamazwi.

20 Hagi agra amne anara osu'neanki, Absalomu'ma hu'nea hazenki eri fru hunaku hu'ne. Hianagi kini nemoka, Anumzamofo ankero vahekna hunka, knare'nare antahintahine vahe mani'nenka, maka'zama mopafi'ma fore'ma hiazana antahinka kenka nehane.

Inceku yakho uJowabi iyenzile linto ukuthi iphendule ukuma kwendaba. Njalo inkosi yami ihlakaniphile njengenhlakanipho yengilosi kaNkulunkulu, ukwazi konke okusemhlabeni.

21 Higeno kini ne'mo'a Joapuna asamino, Knareki kema hanazana hugahuanki vunka Absalomuna ome avrenka eno.

Inkosi yasisithi kuJowabi: Khangela khathesi, ngenzile lindaba; ngakho hamba ubuyise umfana uAbisalomu.

22 Hagi Joapu'a avugosaregati mopafi umaseno, ra agi nemino anage hu'ne, Kini ne' ranimoka, menina eri'za ne'kamo'na kema antahinaminka knare kavukvama hunantana zana menina antahiama hue. Na'ankure ke'ni'a antahinka hu izo hunantane.

UJowabi wasesithi mbo ngobuso emhlabathini, wakhothama, wayibusisa inkosi; uJowabi wasesithi: Lamuhla inceku yakho iyazi ukuthi ngithole umusa emehlweni akho, nkosi yami, nkosi, ngokuthi inkosi yenzile indaba yenceku yayo.

23 Anante Joapu'a Gesur vuno Absalomuna ome avreno Jerusalemi e'ne.

Wasesuka uJowabi, waya eGeshuri, wamletha uAbisalomu eJerusalema.

24 Hianagi kini ne'mo'a anage huno hanave kea hu'ne, Absalomu'a noma'arega umanigahianki, nagri navurera omegahie. Anage higeno Absalomu'a agra'a noma'afi umani'neno, kini nera eme onke'ne.

Inkosi yasisithi: Kaphendukele endlini yakhe, angaboni ubuso bami. Ngakho uAbisalomu waphendukela endlini yakhe, kabonanga ubuso benkosi.

25 Hianagi Absalomuna Israeli vahe'mo'za husga hunte'naze. Agra asenireti'ma vuno agiare'ma urami'neana, afuhe afahera omanegeno, hentofa avufgane ne' mani'ne. Hagi magora agrikna vahera Israeli vahepina omani'naze.

KoIsrayeli wonke-ke kwakungelamuntu onjengoAbisalomu ukudunyiswa kakhulu ngobuhle; kwakungelasici kuye kusukela kungaphansi yonyawo lwakhe kuze kufike enkanda yakhe.

Nxa ephuca ikhanda lakhe - ngoba kwakusithi ekupheleni kwawo wonke umnyaka aliphuce, ngoba zazinzima kuye, ngakho waliphuca - walinganisa inwele zekhanda lakhe, amashekeli angamakhulu amabili ngesilinganiso senkosi.

27 Hagi Absalomu'a tagufa ne' mofavre nenteno, magoke hentofa mofa anteno agi'a Tamari'e huno ante'ne.

Kwasekuzalelwa uAbisalomu amadodana amathathu lendodakazi eyodwa, obizo layo lalinguTamari; wayengowesifazana omuhle ebukeka.

28 Hagi Absalomu'a tare kafu Jerusalemi kumatera mani'ne. Hianagi agra vuno kini nemofo avufina ome onke'ne.

UAbisalomu wasehlala eJerusalema iminyaka emibili epheleleyo, kabonanga ubuso benkosi.

UAbisalomu wasethumela kuJowabi ukuthi amthume enkosini; kodwa kavumanga ukuza kuye. Waphinda wathumela ngokwesibili, kodwa kavumanga ukuza.

30 Hagi Absalomu'a eri'za vahe'a huzamanteno, Joapu bali hozamo'a nagri hoza tava'onte me'neanki, teve ome taginteho huno huzmante'ne.

Wasesithi ezincekwini zakhe: Bonani, isabelo sikaJowabi siseceleni kwesami, njalo ulebhali lapho; hambani lisithungele ngomlilo. Izinceku zikaAbisalomu zasezithungela isabelo ngomlilo.

31 Anante Joapu'a Absalomu nontega eno, Nahigenka eri'za vaheka'a huzamantanke'za hozani'a teve ome taginte'naze?

Wasesuka uJowabi weza kuAbisalomu endlini, wathi kuye: Izinceku zakho zithungeleleni isabelo esingesami ngomlilo?

32 Higeno Absalomu'a kenona huno, Nagra ke atregante'na, are ege'na hugantanena kini ne' ome ko hu'na huana kagra ome'nane.

Hagi menina natrege'na kini ne ome ka'nenkeno hazenkema hunenugeno'a nahe frino.

UAbisalomu wasesithi kuJowabi: Khangela, ngithumele kuwe ngisithi: Woza lapha, ukuze ngikuthume enkosini, ukuthi: Ngibuyeleni ngisuka eGeshuri? Bekukuhle kimi ukuthi ngabe ngilokhu ngikhonale. Ngakho-ke kangibone ubuso benkosi; njalo uba kulecala kimi, kayingibulale.

33 Higeno Joapu'a kini nete vuno ana nanekea ome asamigeno, kini ne'mo'a Absalomuna ke higeno eno avugosaregati mopafi umasegeno, kini ne'mo Absalomuna antako hunte'ne.

Ngakho uJowabi weza enkosini, wayitshela; isimbizile uAbisalomu weza enkosini, wayikhothamela ngobuso bakhe emhlabathini, phambi kwenkosi; inkosi yasimanga uAbisalomu.
