1 Samwiri 20
1 Awo Dawudi n’adduka okuva e Nayosi mu Laama n’agenda eri Yonasaani, n’amubuuza nti, “Nkoze ki? Nazza musango ki? Kibi ki kye nakola ekiyagazisa kitaawo okunzita?”
Dawid dwane firii Naiot a ɛwɔ Rama kɔhunuu Yonatan. Ɔbisaa sɛ, “Bɔne bɛn na mayɛ? Bɔne bɛn na mayɛ wʼagya, a enti ɔpɛ sɛ ɔkum me yi?”
2 Yonasaani n’addamu nti, “Kikafuuwe! Togenda kuttibwa. Laba kitange talina ky’akola, kakibe kinene oba kitono, nga tantegeezezza. Kiki ekyandimuleetedde okukinkisa ekyo? Tekiriiwo.”
Yonatan teaam sɛ, “Ɛnyɛ nokorɛ. Menim yie sɛ ɔnnwenee biribi a ɛte saa ho, ɛfiri sɛ, ɔka ne nsɛm nyinaa kyerɛ me; mpo, ne nsɛm nketenkete nyinaa ɔma mʼaso te. Menim sɛ ɔrentumi mfa saa asɛm a ɛte sɛɛ nsie me da. Ɛnte saa ara da!”
3 Naye Dawudi n’amulayirira ng’ayogera nti, “Kitaawo akimanyi bulungi nti onjagala, era alowooza mu mutima gwe nti, ‘Yonasaani tateekwa kumanya nsonga eyo, kubanga ajja kunakuwala.’ Mukama nga bw’ali omulamu, era naawe ng’oli mujulirwa, ndi wakati mu kufa.”
Ɛhɔ ara, Dawid kaa ntam wɔ Yonatan anim sɛ, “Wʼagya nim yɛn ayɔnkofa yi mu pefee enti, waka wɔ ne tirim sɛ, ‘Merenka nkyerɛ Yonatan. Adɛn enti na ɛsɛ sɛ mede ɔhaw to no so?’ Nanso, meka wo ntam sɛ, mene owuo ntam kwan nware koraa! Mede Awurade ne wo ara wo ɔkra ka ntam!”
4 Awo Yonasaani n’agamba Dawudi nti, “Buli ky’oyagala nkukolere, nnaakikukolera.”
Na Yonatan ka kyerɛɛ Dawid sɛ, “Kyerɛ me deɛ menyɛ!”
5 Dawudi n’agamba Yonasaani nti, “Enkya mbaga ey’okujuukirirako omwezi nga gubonese era nsubirwa okuliira awamu ne kabaka, naye nzikiriza ŋŋende ne kweke mu nnimiro okutuusa ku lunaku olwokusatu akawungeezi nga wayiseewo ennaku bbiri.
Dawid buaa sɛ, “Ɔkyena yɛbɛdi Ɔbosome Foforɔ Afahyɛ. Ɛberɛ biara, sɛ dapɔnna no duru saa a, me ne wʼagya to nsa didi. Nanso, ɔkyena deɛ, mɛkora me ho wɔ wiram ara kɔsi ne nnansa so anwummerɛ.
6 Kitaawo bw’anambuuza, mugambe nti, ‘Dawudi yansabye, agende e Besirekemu, mu kibuga kye waabwe, kubanga waliwo ssaddaaka eya buli mwaka eneeweebwayo ku lw’ennyumba ye yonna.’
Na sɛ wʼagya bisa sɛ mewɔ he a, ka kyerɛ no sɛ, ‘mesrɛɛ ɛkwan sɛ merekɔ me kurom Betlehem, na me ne me fiefoɔ akɔbɔ afirinhyia afɔdeɛ.’
7 Bw’anaakuddamu nti, ‘Kirungi,’ olwo nno omuweereza wo anaaba mirembe. Naye bw’anaanyiiga, kale onootegeera nti amaliridde okunkola akabi.
Sɛ ɔka sɛ, ‘Ɛyɛ’ a, wobɛhunu sɛ biribiara da yie. Na sɛ nso ne bo fu, na ɔgye hwanyan a, wobɛhunu sɛ, ɔrehyehyɛ ho sɛ, ɔbɛkum me.
8 Noolwekyo beera wa kisa eri omuweereza wo, kubanga wakola endagaano n’omuweereza wo mu maaso ga Mukama. Naye oba nnina omusango, gw’oba onzita. Lwaki ompaayo eri kitaawo?”
Ɛda saa adɔeɛ yi adi kyerɛ me, sɛ adamfo a maka ntam adi nse akyerɛ wo, ɛfiri sɛ, yɛn nyinaa wɔ apam wɔ Awurade anim. Na sɛ ɛnte saa, na mayɛ bɔne atia wʼagya a, wo ara kum me. Nanso, mesrɛ wo, nyi me mma.”
9 Yonasaani n’ayogera nti, “Tekiribaawo! Singa nnali ntegedde nga kitange amaliridde okukukola akabi, sandikubuulidde?”
Yonatan teaam sɛ, “Ɛmpare me! Wo ara wonim sɛ, sɛ menim mʼagya nsusuiɛ no ho biribi a, anka maka akyerɛ wo dada.”
10 Awo Dawudi n’amubuuza nti, “Ani anantegeeza, kitaawo ng’akuzzeemu n’obusungu?”
Na Dawid bisaa Yonatan sɛ, “Ɛbɛyɛ dɛn na mahunu sɛ wʼagya bo afu anaasɛ ne bo mfuiɛ?”
11 Yonasaani n’amugamba nti, “Jjangu tulage mu nnimiro.” Awo bombi ne balaga mu nnimiro.
Yonatan buaa sɛ, “Bra na yɛnkɔ wiram hɔ.” Na wɔn nyinaa kɔɔ hɔ.
12 Awo Yonasaani n’agamba Dawudi nti, “Mukama, Katonda wa Isirayiri, abeere mujulirwa waffe; nzija kugezaako okumatiza kitange enkya oba okwosa enkya ku ssaawa nga zino. Bw’anaaba nga takuliiko nsonga, kiki ekinandobera okukumanyisa?
Yonatan ka kyerɛɛ Dawid sɛ, “Ɔkyena akyi sɛsɛɛ, mɛhyɛ bɔ wɔ Awurade Israel Onyankopɔn din mu sɛ me ne mʼagya bɛkasa, na mɛma woahunu deɛ ɔka fa wo ho. Sɛ ɔdi wo ho adanseɛ pa a, mɛma woate no ntɛm.
13 Naye kitange bw’anaaba ng’amaliridde okukukola akabi, kale Mukama ankole bw’atyo, n’okusingawo, bwe siikutegeeze ne nkusindika ogende weekweke. Mukama abeere naawe, nga bw’abadde ne kitange.
Nanso sɛ mʼagya bo afu, na ɔpɛ sɛ ɔkum wo, na sɛ manka ankyerɛ wo ma wo annwane a Awurade nkum me. Awurade nka wo ho sɛdeɛ ɔkaa mʼagya ho no.
14 Bwe nnaaba omulamu, ondage ekisa kya Mukama ekitakoma, ennaku zonna ez’obulamu bwange, nneme okuttibwa,
Na fa Awurade nokorɛ dɔ no bi dɔ me ɛberɛ a mete ase yi. Na sɛ mewu,
15 tokendeezanga ku kisa so tolekangayo kulaga bwesigwa eri ennyumba yange, Mukama ne bw’alizikiriza buli mulabe wa Dawudi ku nsi.”
na ɛba sɛ Awurade twa Dawid atamfoɔ nyinaa gu firi asase ani mpo a, nyi wʼadɔeɛ mfiri me fiefoɔ so da biara da.”
16 Awo Yonasaani n’akola endagaano n’ennyumba ya Dawudi ng’agamba nti, “Mukama abonereze abalabe ba Dawudi.”
Enti, Yonatan ne Dawid yɛɛ apam sɛ, “Awurade ntɔre Dawid atamfoɔ nyinaa ase.”
17 Yonasaani n’alayiza Dawudi nate okukakasa ekirayiro kye, olw’okwagala kwe yamwagala kubanga yamwagala nga bwe yali yeeyagala.
Esiane ɔdɔ a Yonatan wɔ ma Dawid no enti, ɔmaa no tii ne ntam no mu bio, ɛfiri sɛ, na ɔdɔ no sɛdeɛ ɔdɔ ɔno ankasa ho.
18 Yonasaani n’agamba Dawudi nti, “Enkya mbaga ey’okujuukirirako omwezi nga gubonese, naye tunaakusaalirwa, kijja kutegeerekeka nti toliiwo, kubanga ekifo kyo kinaaba kyereere.
Afei, Yonatan ka kyerɛɛ Dawid sɛ, “Ɔkyena na ɛyɛ ɔbosome foforɔ afahyɛ no. Yɛrenhunu wo, ɛfiri sɛ, wʼakonnwa so bɛda hɔ.
19 Okwosa enkya, obudde nga bunaatera okuziba, genda mu kifo mwe weekweka luli, ebizibu bino bwe byatandika, obeere awali ejjinja Ezeri.
Ɔkyena akyi, ɛrekɔ anwummerɛ no, kɔ baabi a saa nsɛm yi refiti aseɛ no, wokɔsumaa wo ho no, na twɛn wɔ aboɔ esie no ho.
20 Nnaalasa obusaale busatu ku mabbali gaalyo, ng’ateeba ssabbaawa.
Mɛto agyan mmiɛnsa afa ne nkyɛn, te sɛ deɛ mereto abɔ biribi no.
21 N’oluvannyuma nzija kutuma omulenzi nga mugamba nti, ‘Genda onoonye obusaale.’ Bwe naamugamba nti, ‘Laba, obusaale buli ku luuyi gy’oli, buleete,’ kale onojja, kubanga Mukama nga bw’ali omulamu, onoolama, era tewaabeewo kabi.
Afei, mɛsoma abarimaa bi aka sɛ, ‘Kɔ na kɔhwehwɛ bɛmma no.’ Sɛ meka kyerɛ no sɛ, ‘Hwɛ, bɛmma no wɔ fa ha; tase brɛ me a,’ bra, ɛfiri sɛ, mmerɛ dodoɔ ko a Awurade te ase yi, wo ho sɔnn; bɔne bi nni hɔ.
22 Naye bwe nnaagamba omulenzi nti, ‘Laba, obusaale buli mu maaso,’ kale onoogenda, kubanga olwo Mukama ng’akugambye ogende.
Na sɛ meka kyerɛ abarimaa no sɛ, ‘Hwɛ, bɛmma no wɔ wʼanim’ a, ɛnneɛ, na ɛsɛ sɛ wokɔ, ɛfiri sɛ, Awurade na ɔse kɔ.
23 Era ne ku bigambo bye twayogerako, Mukama abeere naffe ennaku zonna.”
Na Awurade mmoa yɛn na yɛnni ɛbɔ a yɛahyehyɛ yɛn ho yɛn ho no so, ɛfiri sɛ ɔno ne yɛn danseni.”
24 Awo Dawudi ne yeekweka mu nnimiro. Embaga ey’okujuukirirako omwezi nga gubonese bwe yatuuka, kabaka n’atuula okulya.
Na Dawid kɔtɛɛ wiram, na ɛberɛ a ɔbosome foforɔ afahyɛ no duruiɛ no, ɔhene no tenaa ase sɛ ɔrebɛdidi.
25 N’atuula mu kifo kye ekya bulijjo okumpi n’ekisenge okwolekera Yonasaani. Abuneeri n’atuula okuliraana Sawulo, naye ekifo kya Dawudi kyali kyereere.
Ɔtenaa nʼatenaeɛ a ɛbɛn ɔfasuo ho a ɛne Yonatan di nhwɛanim, na Abner tena dii Saulo so, nanso Dawid atenaeɛ hɔ deɛ, ɛdaa hɔ bio.
26 Sawulo n’atabaako kyayogera ku lunaku olwo, kubanga yalowooza nti, “Waliwo ekituuse ku Dawudi ne kimufuula atali mulongoofu; ddala si mulongoofu.”
Na ɛda no, Saulo anka asɛm biara. Na ɔdwenee sɛ, “Gyama asɛm bi ato Dawid a ɛmma ne ho nte mma saa afahyɛ no ase. Ɛno enti na ɔnni ha ɛnnɛ no.”
27 Olunaku olwaddirira, omwezi nga gumaze okuboneka, ekifo kya Dawudi ne kisigala nga kyereere. Awo Sawulo n’abuuza mutabani we Yonasaani nti, “Kiki ekyalobedde mutabani wa Yese okujja ku kijjulo, olunaku lwa jjo newaakubadde leero?”
Na adeɛ kyeeɛ a Dawid afa hɔ ada mpan bio no, Saulo bisaa ne ba Yonatan sɛ, “Adɛn enti na Yisai babarima no amma adidie nnora ne ɛnnɛ?”
28 Yonasaani n’addamu nti, “Dawudi yanneegayiridde mukkirize agende e Besirekemu,
Yonatan buaa sɛ, “Nokorɛm, Dawid srɛɛ me ɛkwan sɛ ɔrekɔ Betlehem.
29 ng’ayogera nti, ‘Nzikiriza ŋŋende kubanga ennyumba yaffe balina ssaddaaka ey’okuwaayo mu kibuga, ne muganda wange yandagidde mbeere yo. Kale nno obanga ndabye ekisa mu maaso go, nzikiriza ŋŋende ndabe baganda bange.’ Kyeyavudde tabeerawo ku mmeeza ya kabaka.”
Ɔkaa sɛ, ‘Ma menkɔ, ɛfiri sɛ, me fiefoɔ rebɔ afɔdeɛ wɔ kuro no mu enti, me nuabarima ahyɛ me sɛ, ɛsɛ sɛ mewɔ hɔ bi. Sɛ afei, manya wʼanim animuonyam a, ma me kwan na menkɔhwɛ me nuanom mmarima.’ Ɛno enti na wamma ɔhene didipono ho no.”
30 Awo Sawulo n’annyiigira nnyo Yonasaani, n’amugamba nti, “Ggwe omwana w’omukazi omukyamu era omujeemu! Olowooza sikimanyi nga weekobaana ne mutabani wa Yese okweleetako okuswala, n’okukwasa maama wo eyakuzaala ensonyi?
Saulo bo fuu Yonatan, ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Wo ɔba kwasea, ɔbaa brakyewni tuateni ba! Wosusu sɛ mennim sɛ wopɛ sɛ Dawid di ɔhene si wo anan mu de hyɛ wo ne wo maame aniwuo?
31 Mutabani wa Yese ng’akyali mulamu ku nsi, tolinywezebwa ggwe newaakubadde obwakabaka bwo. Kaakano mutumye omundeetere, kubanga ateekwa okufa.”
Mmerɛ dodoɔ a Yisai babarima no te ase wɔ asase yi so no, worennya ɔhene nni da. Soma seesei ara na wɔnkɔfa no mmrɛ me, na menkum no!”
32 Awo Yonasaani n’addamu kitaawe Sawulo nti, “Kiki ekimugwanyiza okuttibwa? Akoze ki?”
Yonatan bisaa nʼagya sɛ, “Adɛn enti na ɛsɛ sɛ wɔkum no? Ɛdeɛbɛn na wayɛ?”
33 Naye Sawulo n’amukasuukirira effumu amutte. Awo Yonasaani we yategeerera nga kitaawe amaliridde okutta Dawudi.
Ɛhɔ ara, Saulo too pea sɛ ɔde rewɔ no, akum no. Afei Yonatan hunuu sɛ nʼagya asi nʼadwene pi sɛ ɔbɛkum Dawid.
34 Yonasaani n’asituka ku mmeeza mu busungu obungi, era n’atalya mmere ku lunaku olwokubiri olw’omwezi, kubanga yanakuwalira ekikolwa kya kitaawe eky’obuswavu eri Dawudi.
Yonatan de abufuden sɔre firii didipono no ho. Na ɛda a ɛtɔ so mmienu wɔ bosome no mu no, wannidi, ɛfiri sɛ, ne werɛ hoo wɔ nʼagya animguasedeɛ a ɔpɛ sɛ ɔyɛ Dawid no ho.
35 Ku makya Yonasaani n’alaga mu nnimiro okusisinkana Dawudi, nga bwe baali balagaanye. Yalina akalenzi ke yagenda nako,
Ade kyeeɛ no, Yonatan kɔɔ wiram. Sɛdeɛ wɔahyehyɛ ho no. Ɔfaa abarimaa ketewa bi kaa ne ho a ɔbɛboaboa ne bɛmma ano.
36 n’akagamba nti, “Dduka onoonye obusaale bwe nnaalasa.” Akalenzi bwe kaali nga kadduka, Yonasaani n’alasa akasaale mu maaso gaako ne kamusookayo.
Ɔka kyerɛɛ abarimaa no sɛ, “Hyɛ aseɛ tu mmirika kɔhwehwɛ bɛmma a metoto no.” Na abarimaa no retu mmirika akɔ no, Yonatan too bɛmma no baako traa no.
37 Awo akalenzi bwe kaatuuka mu kifo akasaale we kaali kagudde, Yonasaani n’akakoowoola ng’agamba nti, “Akasaale tekali mu maasoko?”
Na ɛberɛ a abarimaa no duruu baabi a Yonatan bɛmma no akɔtɔ no, Yonatan frɛɛ no sɛ, “bɛmma no ntraa wo anaa?”
38 N’akangula ku ddoboozi, n’amugamba nti, “Yanguwa, genda mangu, tolwawo.” Akalenzi ne kakima akasaale, ne kakomawo eri mukama waako.
Enti, Yonatan teaam sɛ, “Ka wo ho! Kɔ ntɛm! Nnyina.” Abarimaa no faa bɛmma no sane baa ne wura nkyɛn.
39 Naye akalenzi ne katabaako kye kategeera. Yonasaani ne Dawudi bokka be baamanya enteekateeka eyo.
Na abarimaa no nnim yei ho hwee; Yonatan ne Dawid nko ara na na wɔnim.
40 Awo Yonasaani n’akwasa akalenzi ebyokulwanyisa bye, n’akagamba nti, “Genda, obizzeeyo mu kibuga.”
Na Yonatan de nʼakodeɛ maa abarimaa no kaa sɛ, “Kɔ, soa sane fa kɔ kurom.”
41 Akalenzi bwe kaamala okugenda, Dawudi n’avaayo mu kifo eky’obukiikaddyo, n’agwa wansi mu maaso ga Yonasaani n’amuvuunamira emirundi esatu. Ne bagwaŋŋana mu bifuba ne bakaaba, naye Dawudi ye yasinga okukaaba.
Ɛberɛ a abarimaa no kɔeɛ ara pɛ, Dawid pue firii baabi a ɔkɔhintaeɛ hɔ a ɛbɛn aboɔ sie no baeɛ. Na Dawid bɔɔ ne mu ase wɔ Yonatan anim, de nʼanim butuu fam. Na wɔfefee wɔn ho ano, na wɔmaa wɔn ho wɔn ho nante yie, na wɔsuiɛ, ne titire no, Dawid.
42 Awo Yonasaani n’agamba Dawudi nti, “Genda mirembe, kubanga fembi twelayirira omukwano mu linnya lya Mukama nga twogera nti, ‘Mukama ye mujulirwa wakati wo nange, ne wakati w’ezzadde lyo n’ezzadde lyange emirembe gyonna.’” Dawudi n’agenda, ne Yonasaani n’addayo mu kibuga.
Akyire no, Yonatan ka kyerɛɛ Dawid sɛ, “Kɔ asomdwoeɛ mu, ɛfiri sɛ, yɛayɛ apam wɔ Awurade din mu. Yɛde yɛn mu biara ne yɛn mu biara mma ahyɛ Awurade nsa afebɔɔ.” Na Dawid kɔeɛ, ɛnna Yonatan nso sane kɔɔ kuro no mu.
