Kwathi uDavida esedlule kancinyane engqongeni, khangela, uZiba inceku kaMefiboshethi wamhlangabeza elabobabhemi ababili belezihlalo, bethwele izinkwa ezingamakhulu amabili, lamahlukuzo alikhulu ezithelo ezonyisiweyo zevini, lezithelo zehlobo ezilikhulu, lomgodla wewayini.

2 Hagi kini ne Deviti'a Sibana antahigeno, amazana na'a hu'zane? Higeno Siba'a kenona huno, ama donki afutrena naga kamo'za zanagumpi mani'za vugahaze. Hagi bretine zafa raganena venenemo'za negahaze. Hagi ama waini tina hagage kopima nevanageno tamavresrama hanigeta negahaze.

Inkosi yasisithi kuZiba: Uthini ngalezizinto? UZiba wasesithi: Obabhemi ngabendlu yenkosi ukuthi bagade, lezinkwa lezithelo zehlobo ngezamajaha ukuthi adle, lewayini ngelabaphelelwa ngamandla enkangala ukuthi banathe.

4 Hagi kini ne'mo'a Sibana asamino, E'i menina maka Mefiboseti zantamina ete'na kagri kamue. Higeno Siba'a kenona huno, kini ne' ranimoka kagri'ma kavesisia zana amne hugahue.

Inkosi yasisithi kuZiba: Khangela, ngokwakho konke okukaMefiboshethi. UZiba wasesithi: Ngiyakhothama; kangithole umusa emehlweni akho, nkosi yami, nkosi.

5 Hagi anama hute'za kini ne'mo'a Bahurimi kumate'ma vigeno, mago ne'mo tutagiha hunte'ne. Ana nera Soli nagapinti ne' Gera nemofo Simeikino ne-eno Devitina kesuno e'ne.

Kwathi inkosi uDavida ifika eBahurimi, khangela, kwaphuma khona umuntu wosendo lwendlu kaSawuli, obizo lakhe linguShimeyi indodana kaGera; waphuma, ehamba ethuka.

6 Hagi Simei'a have knonu matevuno Devitina neheno, mika Deviti'enema vu'naza vahera nezamaheno, Devitima kegavama hunte'za kanti kamama vu'naza avate hanave sondia vahe'enena zamahe'ne.

Wasejikijela uDavida ngamatshe kanye lenceku zonke zenkosi uDavida, labo bonke abantu lamaqhawe wonke ngakwesokunene sakhe langakwesokhohlo sakhe.

7 Hagi Simei'a Devitima kema nesuno'a amanage hu'ne, Kagra vahe ahe fri vava hunka vahe kora eri taginka haviza hu'nana vahe mani'nananki, amafintira maniganenka vuo.

Wasesitsho njalo uShimeyi ekuthukeni kwakhe: Phuma, phuma, muntu wegazi, muntu kaBheliyali!

8 Hagi kagra Soli naga'ma zamahe frinka, Soli kini trama eri'nana zante menina Ra Anumzamo'a kagrira nona hunegante. Hagi menina negamofo Absalomu kini eri'zana hanare amigenka, frenka ne'ane. Na'ankure kagra vahe zamahe frinka vahe kora eritagi ne' mani'nanku, e'inahu hazenkea eri'ne.

INkosi ibuyisele phezu kwakho lonke igazi lendlu kaSawuli obubusa esikhundleni sakhe; iNkosi inikele umbuso esandleni sikaAbisalomu indodana yakho. Khangela, usebubini bakho, ngoba ungumuntu omele igazi.

9 Anante Zeruia nemofo Abisai'a kini ne' asamino, nahigeno ami fri'nea kramo'a kini ne'moka e'inahu kea kasuno ne-e! Natrege'na ome ahena agenopa akafri'neno.

UAbishayi indodana kaZeruya wasesithi enkosini: Linja efileyo iyithukelani inkosi yami, inkosi? Ake ngedlule ngisuse ikhanda layo.

10 Hianagi kini ne'mo huno, Ra Anumzamo'ma huntenigeno huhavizama hunenante'na Zeruia nemofoga antahio, tagra magozana hugara osu'none.

Kodwa inkosi yathi: Ngilani lani, madodana kaZeruya? Ngakho kathuke, ngoba iNkosi ithe kuye: Thuka uDavida; pho, ngubani ozakuthi: Wenzeleni njalo?

11 Anante Deviti'a Abisaine mika eri'za vahe'anena zamasamino, Nagra'ama kasente'noa mofavremo Absalomu'ma nahe'za nehanigeno'a, Benzameni naga'mo'za amane nahegahaze. Hagi Ra Anumzamo asamigeno nehianki, mago'zana osu atrenkeno huhavizana hunanteno.

UDavida wasesithi kuAbishayi lakuzo zonke inceku zakhe: Khangela, indodana yami, ephume emibilini yami, idinga impilo yami; kangakanani-ke lumBhenjamini? Myekeleni, athuke, ngoba iNkosi ikhulumile kuye.

12 Hagi nagriku'ma haviza hunane huno'ma huhavizama hunanterera, Ra Anumzamo'a nenageno, Agra'a nona huno asomura hunante'nie.

Mhlawumbe iNkosi izabona usizi lwami, iNkosi ingibuyisele okuhle esikhundleni sokuthuka kwakhe lamuhla.

13 Hagi Deviti'ene naga'amo'za nevazageno Simei'a anagami kaziga nevuno, Devitina kea nesuno kugusopa kateno avufina netreno have kanona atreno aheno vu'ne.

UDavida labantu bakhe basebehamba ngendlela; loShimeyi ehamba eceleni kwentaba maqondana laye, ehamba ethuka, emjikijela ngamatshe, emthela ngothuli.

14 Hagi kini ne'ene agranema vu'naza vahe'mo'za zamavaresra hige'za Jodani tinte unehanati'za anante umanigasa hu'naze.

Inkosi labo bonke abantu ababelayo bafika sebekhathele; yasihlumelela khona.

15 Hagi ana'ma nehazageno'a, Absalomu'ene maka eri'za vahe'anema Jerusalema ehanati'zageno'a Ahitofeli'a agrane e'ne.

UAbisalomu labantu bonke, amadoda akoIsrayeli, basebefika eJerusalema, loAhithofeli elaye.

16 Hagi Deviti rone'a Akati kumateti ne' Husai'a Absalomuna eme tutagiha hunteno anage hu'ne, Kini nera kagra zazate kinia manigahane!

Kwasekusithi lapho uHushayi umArki, umngane kaDavida, esefike kuAbisalomu, uHushayi wathi kuAbisalomu: Kayiphile inkosi! Kayiphile inkosi!

17 Hianagi Absalomu'a Husaina antahigeno, Deviti nefuga mani'nananki, kagra nahigenka agranena ovu mani'nane? E'i knare kavukvara negafuna huontane.

UAbisalomu wasesithi kuHushayi: Yiwo umusa wakho kumngane wakho yini? Kungani ungahambanga lomngane wakho?

18 Higeno Husai'a kenona huno, Ra Anumzamo'ene maka Israeli vahe'mo'za huhamprintesaza kini nemofo agoraga nagra manigahue.

UHushayi wasesithi kuAbisalomu: Hatshi, kodwa lowo emkhethayo iNkosi, lalababantu, lawo wonke amadoda akoIsrayeli, ngizakuba ngowakhe, njalo ngihlale laye.

19 Hagi nagra negafa antahintahima ami eri'za vahe mani'noankna hu'na kagri eri'za vahe manigahue.

Ngokwesibili, mina ngizakhonza bani? Kungabi phambi kobuso bendodana yakhe na? Njengoba ngakhonza phambi kukayihlo, ngokunjalo ngizakuba phambi kwakho.

20 Hagi Absalomu'a Ahitofelina asamino, Na'a hugahumpi antahi'zana namio.

UAbisalomu wasesithi kuAhithofeli: Phanini iseluleko senu ukuthi sizakwenza njani?

21 Higeno Ahitofeli'a Absalomuna hunteno, negafana henka a'nezaga'ane umaso. Na'ankure agra nonku'ma kegava hanazegu zamatreno vu'ne. E'inama hananke'za Israeli vahe'mo'za antahisu'za, tamage hunka negafana ha'renentane nehu'za, kagranema mani'naza vahe'mo'za hanaveti'za kagritega antegahaze.

UAhithofeli wasesithi kuAbisalomu: Ngena kubafazi abancane bakayihlo abatshiye ukulinda indlu; loIsrayeli wonke uzakuzwa ukuthi ulevumba kuyihlo; khona izandla zabo bonke abalawe zizaqina.

22 Higeno nomofo agofetu seli no Absalomuna kintageno, nefama zamatreno vu'nea a'nenea mika Israeli vahe zamavuga zamanteno mase'ne. (2 Samuel 12:11-12.)

Basebemendlalela uAbisalomu ithente phezu kophahla; uAbisalomu wasengena kubafazi abancane bakayise phambi kwamehlo kaIsrayeli wonke.

23 Hagi ana knafina Ahitofeli'a Ra Anumzamofontegati'ma antahintahima erinoma hiankna ke nehigeno Absalomu'a kote'ma Deviti'ma hu'neankna huno amagera ante'ne.

Iseluleko sikaAhithofeli aseluleka ngalezonsuku sasinjengomuntu ebuza ilizwi likaNkulunkulu; sasinjalo sonke iseluleko sikaAhithofeli kubo bobabili uDavida loAbisalomu.
