1 Samwiri 25
1 Awo Samwiri n’afa, Isirayiri yenna ne bakuŋŋaana okumukungubagira. Ne bamuziika ewuwe e Laama. Awo Dawudi n’avaayo n’aserengeta mu ddungu Palani.
And he died Samuel and they gathered together all Israel and they mourned for him and they buried him at house his in Ramah and he arose David and he went down to [the] wilderness of Paran.
2 Mu biro ebyo waaliwo omusajja omugagga ennyo mu Mawoni eyalina eby’obugagga e Kalumeeri. Yalina endiga enkumi ssatu n’embuzi lukumi. Byali biseera bya kusala byoya eby’endiga ze, e Kalumeeri.
And a man [was] in Maon and business his [was] in Carmel and the man [was] great very and [belonged] to him sheep three thousand and one thousand goats and it was when sheared sheep his in Carmel.
3 Erinnya ly’omusajja ye yali Nabali, ne mukyala we nga ye Abbigayiri. Yali mukyala mutegeevu era nga mulungi, nga bw’omutunuulira alabika bulungi, naye bba Omukalebu, nga wa kkabyo kyokka nga mukalabakalaba mu mirimu gye.
And [the] name of the man [was] Nabal and [the] name of wife his [was] Abigail and the woman [was] good of insight and beautiful of appearance and the man [was] hard and evil of deeds and he ([was] a Calebite. *Q(K)*)
4 Nabali yali ng’asala ebyoya by’endiga ze, Dawudi n’akiwulira.
And he heard David in the wilderness that [was] shearing Nabal sheep his.
5 Dawudi n’atuma abavubuka kkumi, n’abagamba nti, “Mwambuke e Kalumeeri eri Nabali mumulamuse mu linnya lyange.
And he sent David ten young men and he said David to the young men go up Carmel towards and you will go to Nabal and you will ask of him in name my to welfare.
6 Mumugambe nti, Emirembe gibeere ku ggwe n’ennyumba yo, ne ku bintu byo byonna.
And you will say thus to the living [one] and you peace and house your peace and all that [belongs] to you peace.
7 “Mpulira nti ekiseera eky’okusala ebyoya by’endiga kituuse. Abasumba bo bwe baabeeranga awamu naffe, tetwabayisanga bubi, era n’ebbanga lyonna lye baamala e Kalumeeri tewali na kimu ku bintu byabwe ekyabula.
And now I have heard that shearers [belong] to you now the shepherds who [belong] to you they have been with us not we have humiliated them and not it has been missing to them anything all [the] days of being they in Carmel.
8 Buuza abaweereza bo, be bajulirwa. Noolwekyo abavubuka bange balabe ekisa mu maaso go kubanga bazze mu kiseera eky’okukwatiramu embaga. Nkusaba obawe kyonna ky’olinawo, oweerezeeko ne mutabani wo Dawudi.”
Ask own young men your so they may tell to you and let them find the young men favor in view your for on a day good we have come give! please [that] which it will find hand your to servants your and to son your to David.
9 Awo abasajja ba Dawudi bwe baatuuka, ne bawa Nabali obubaka obwo mu linnya lya Dawudi, ne balindirira.
And they went [the] young men of David and they spoke to Nabal according to all the words these in [the] name of David and they rested.
10 Nabali n’addamu abaweereza ba Dawudi nti, “Dawudi oyo ye ani? Mutabani wa Yese oyo ye ani? Ennaku zino abaweereza bangi badduka ku bakama baabwe.
And he answered Nabal [the] servants of David and he said who? [is] David and who? [is] [the] son of Jesse this day they are many servants who break away each one from before master his.
11 Nnyinza ntya okuddira emigaati gyange, n’amazzi, n’ennyama bye ntekeddeteekedde abasajja bange abasala ebyoya ne mbiwa be sirina kye mbamanyiiko?”
And will I take bread my and water my and slaughter my which I have slaughtered for shearers my and will I give [them] to men who not I know where? from this [are] they.
12 Awo abasajja ba Dawudi ne bakyuka ne baddayo ne bamutegeeza buli kigambo nga bwe bategeezebbwa.
And they turned round [the] young men of David to way their and they returned and they came and they told to him according to all the words these.
13 Dawudi n’agamba abasajja be nti, “Mwesibe buli muntu ekitala kye!” Buli omu ku bo ne yeesiba ekitala kye, ne Dawudi ne yeesiba ekikye, abasajja nga bikumi bina ne bayambuka ne Dawudi, ebikumi bibiri ne basigala nga bakuuma eby’okukozesa.
And he said David to men his gird on - everyone sword his and they girded on everyone sword his and he girded on also David sword his and they went up - after David about four hundred man and two hundred they remained with the baggage.
14 Omu ku baddu ba Nabali n’agamba Abbigayiri mukyala wa Nabali nti, “Dawudi yatuma ababaka ng’ali mu ddungu okulamusa mukama waffe naye n’abavuma;
And to Abigail [the] wife of Nabal he told a young man one from the young men saying there! he sent David messengers - from the wilderness to bless master our and he shouted at them.
15 ate nga abasajja abo baali ba kisa nnyo gye tuli, era tebalina kabi ke baatukola newaakubadde okubuza ekintu n’ekimu ku bintu byaffe bwe twali mu ddungu nabo.
And the men [were] good to us very and not we were humiliated and not we missed anything all [the] days [which] we went about with them when were we in the field.
16 Baaberanga ng’ekisenge okutwetooloola emisana n’ekiro, ekiseera kyonna kye twamala nabo nga tulunda endiga.
A wall they were with us both night as well as by day all [the] days of being we with them shepherding the flock.
17 Kaakano kifumiitirizeeko, olabe ky’oyinza okukola, kubanga akabi kajjidde mukama waffe n’ennyumba ye yonna. Musajja atabuulirirwa.”
And now know and see what? will you do for it has been determined evil against master our and on all household his and he [is] a son of worthlessness from speaking to him.
18 Awo amangwago Abbigayiri n’ayanguwa n’addira emigaati ebikumi bibiri, n’ebita bibiri ebya wayini, n’ennyama ey’endiga ttaano ennongoose obulungi, n’ebigero bitaano eby’eŋŋaano ensiike, n’ebitole kikumi eby’ezabbibu enkalu, n’ebitole ebikumi bibiri eby’ettiini, n’abiteeka ku ndogoyi.
And she made haste (Abigail *Q(k)*) and she took two hundred bread[s] and two jars of wine and five sheep (prepared *Q(k)*) and five seahs of roasted grain and a hundred bunches of raisins and two hundred fig cakes and she put [them] on the donkeys.
19 N’agamba abaweereza be nti, “Munkulemberemu, nange nzija.” Naye n’atabuulirako bba Nabali.
And she said to servants her pass on before me here I after you [will be] coming and to husband her Nabal not she told.
20 Awo bwe yali yeebagadde endogoyi ye, n’ayita kumpi n’olusozi nga lumukweka. N’asisinkana Dawudi n’abasajja be nabo nga baserengeta okumwolekera.
And it was she - [was] riding on the donkey and [was] going down in [the] cover of the mountain and there! David and men his [were] going down to meet her and she met them.
21 Dawudi yali yakamala okwogera nti, “Nakuumira bwereere ebintu byonna eby’omusajja ono bwe byali mu ddungu ne wataba na kimu ekyabula; bw’atyo bw’ansasudde, obubi olw’obulungi.
And David he had said surely to deception I have guarded all that [belongs] to this [man] in the wilderness and not it has been missing any of all that [belongs] to him anything and he has returned to me evil in place of good.
22 Kale Katonda akole bw’atyo abalabe ba Dawudi n’okukirawo, enkeera bwe wanaabaawo omusajja we n’omu anaasigala nga mulamu.”
Thus may he do God to [the] enemies David and thus may he add if I will leave any of all that [belongs] to him until the morning [one who] urinates on a wall.
23 Awo Abbigayiri bwe yalengera Dawudi, n’ayanguwa okuva ku ndogoyi ye, n’avuunama mu maaso ga Dawudi.
And she saw Abigail David and she made haste and she came down from on the donkey and she fell to [the] face of David on face her and she bowed down [the] ground.
24 N’agwa ku bigere bye n’ayogera nti, “Mukama wange omusango gubeere ku nze nzekka. Nkwegayiridde leka omuweereza wo ayogere naawe; wuliriza omuweereza wo ky’anaayogera.
And she fell at feet his and she said [be] on me I O lord my the iniquity and let her speak please maidservant your in ears your and hear [the] words of maidservant your.
25 Mukama wange aleme okussa omwoyo ku musajja omusirusiru oyo Nabali, kubanga n’erinnya lye litegeeza musirusiru, atambulira mu busirusiru bwe. Naye nze omuweereza wo, ssaalabye bavubuka mukama wange be watumye.
May not please he set lord my - heart his to [the] man of worthlessness this on Nabal for like name his [is] so he [is] Nabal name his and disgraceful folly [is] with him and I maidservant your not I saw [the] young men of lord my whom you sent.
26 “Kale nno mukama wange, nga Mukama bw’ali omulamu, akubedde obutayiwa musaayi newaakubadde obutawalana ggwanga n’omukono gwo, era naawe bw’oli omulamu, abalabe bo, n’abo abakuyigganya bonna mukama wange babeere nga Nabali.
And now O lord my [by] [the] life of Yahweh and [by] [the] life of self your that he has restrained you Yahweh from coming in blood and [from] delivering hand your you and now may they be like Nabal enemies your and those [who] seek against lord my evil.
27 Era n’ekirabo kino omuweereza wo ky’aleetedde mukama wange kiweebwe abavubuka abatambula ne mukama wange.
And now the blessing this which he has brought maidservant your to lord my and it will be given to the young men who go about at [the] feet of lord my.
28 Nkwegayiridde osonyiwe ekyonoono kw’omuweereza wo, era Mukama talirema kuzimbira mukama wange obwakabaka obw’enkalakkalira, kubanga mukama wange alwana entalo za Mukama. Waleme okulabika ekikolwa ekikyamu kyonna mu ggwe ennaku zonna ez’obulamu bwo.
Forgive please to [the] transgression of maidservant your for certainly he will make Yahweh for lord my a house enduring for [the] battles of Yahweh lord my [is] fighting and evil not it will be found in you from days your.
29 Ne bwe walibaawo omuntu yenna alikulumba okukuyigganya okutwala obulamu bwo, obulamu bwa mukama wange bukuumibwenga Mukama Katonda wo mu lulyo olw’abalamu. Naye obulamu bw’abalabe bo alibuvuumuula ng’ejjinja bwe liva mu nvuumuulo.
And he has arisen a man to pursue you and to seek life your and it will be [the] life of lord my bound up - in [the] bundle of the living with Yahweh God your and [the] life of enemies your he will sling out it in [the] midst of [the] hollow of sling.
30 Awo Mukama bw’alikolera mukama wange ebirungi byonna bye yamusuubiza, era n’amufuula okuba omukulembeze wa Isirayiri,
And it will be that he will do Yahweh to lord my according to all that he has spoken the good on you and he will appoint you to ruler over Israel.
31 mukama wange talibeera na kulumirizibwa mu mutima olw’okuyiwa omusaayi awatali nsonga, wadde okwewalanira eggwanga. Era Mukama bw’alikukolera ebirungi mukama wange, ojjukiranga omuweereza wo.”
And not it will become this - for you staggering and stumbling of heart for lord my and pouring out of blood without cause and to deliver lord my himself and he will do good Yahweh to lord my and you will remember maidservant your.
32 Awo Dawudi n’agamba Abbigayiri nti, “Mukama Katonda wa Isirayiri atenderezebwe, akutumye okujja okunsisinkana leero.
And he said David to Abigail [be] blessed Yahweh [the] God of Israel who he has sent you the day this to meet me.
33 Akuwe omukisa oyo akubedde okusalawo obulungi, era akubedde okundabula obutayiwa musaayi leero n’obuteewalanira ggwanga.
And [be] blessed discernment your and [be] blessed you who you have restrained me the day this from coming in blood and [from] delivering hand my me.
34 Kubanga mazima ddala nga Mukama Katonda wa Isirayiri bw’ali omulamu, ambedde obutakukolako kabi, singa toyanguye kujja kunsisinkana, tewandibadde musajja n’omu owa Nabali eyandiwonyeewo, obudde we bwandikeeredde enkya.”
And but [by] [the] life of Yahweh [the] God of Israel who he has restrained me from doing harm to you if - if not you had made haste (and you had come *Q(k)*) to meet me that except he has been left to Nabal until [the] light of the morning [one who] urinates on a wall.
35 Awo Dawudi n’akkiriza okutwala Abbigayiri bye yaleeta, n’ayogera nti, “Genda ewuwo mirembe. Mpulidde ebigambo byo, era nzikkirizza okwegayirira kwo.”
And he took David from hand her [that] which she had brought to him and to her he said go up to peace to house your see I have listened to voice your and I have lifted up face your.
36 Awo Abbigayiri bwe yaddayo eri Nabali, n’amusanga ng’ali mu nnyumba, era ng’akoze embaga, ng’eya kabaka. Yali asanyuukiridde nnyo, era ng’atamidde, kyeyava tamunyega ku olwo, okutuusa enkeera.
And she went Abigail - to Nabal and there! [belonged] to him a feast in house his like [the] feast of king and [the] heart of Nabal it was good on him and he [was] drunk up to muchness and not she told to him anything small and great until [the] light of the morning.
37 Awo bwe bwakya, Nabali omwenge nga gumuweddeko, mukyala we n’amutegeeza ebigambo ebyo byonna, naye omutima gwe ne gukakanyala, ne guba ng’ejjinja.
And it was in the morning when had gone out the wine from Nabal and she told to him wife his the things these and it died heart his in inward part[s] his and he he became stone.
38 Oluvannyuma lw’ennaku nga kkumi, Nabali n’afa ekikutuko.
And it was about [the] ten the days and he struck Yahweh Nabal and he died.
39 Awo Dawudi bwe yawulira Nabali ng’afudde, n’ayogera nti, “Mukama yeebazibwe anwaniridde, Nabali olw’obubi bwe yankola. Mukama ambedde, era akuumye omuweereza we obutakola kikyamu, n’ateeka ebikolwa bya Nabali ebibi ku mutwe ggwe.” Awo Dawudi n’atumira Abbigayiri, n’amusaba afuuke mukazi we ng’amusaba okumuwasa.
And he heard David that he had died Nabal and he said [be] blessed Yahweh who he has conducted [the] case of disgrace my from [the] hand of Nabal and servant his he has restrained from evil and [the] evil of Nabal he has turned back Yahweh on own head his and he sent David and he spoke with Abigail to take her for himself to a wife.
40 Abaweereza ba Dawudi ne bagenda e Kalumeeri ne bagamba Abbigayiri nti, “Dawudi atutumye tukutwale omufumbirwe.”
And they went [the] servants of David to Abigail Carmel towards and they spoke to her saying David he has sent us to you to take you for himself to a wife.
41 N’avuunama amaaso ge n’ayogera nti, “Laba omuweereza wo mweteefuteefu okunaazanga ebigere by’abaweereza ba mukama wange.”
And she arose and she bowed down face [the] ground towards and she said here! maidservant your to a maid to wash [the] feet of [the] servants of lord my.
42 Awo Abbigayiri n’ayanguwa okwebagala endogoyi, ng’awerekeddwako abaweereza bataano, n’agenda n’ababaka ba Dawudi, n’amufumbirwa.
And she made haste and she arose Abigail and she rode on the donkey and five maids her who walked to foot her and she went after [the] messengers of David and she became of him a wife.
43 Dawudi yali awasizza ne Akinoamu ow’e Yezuleeri, era bombi ne baba bakyala be.
And Ahinoam he had taken David from Jezreel and they became also both of them of him wives.
44 Kyokka Sawulo yali agabidde muwala we Mikali, eyali mukyala wa Dawudi, Paluti mutabani wa Layisi ow’e Galimu.
And Saul he had given Michal daughter his [the] wife of David to Palti [the] son of Laish who [was] from Gallim.
