1 Awo ab’e Zifu ne bagenda eri Sawulo e Gibea ne bamugamba nti, “Olowooza nga Dawudi teyeekwese ku lusozi Kakira, ku luuyi olw’ebuvanjuba olwolekera eddungu Yesimoni?”

VaZifi vakaenda kuna Sauro paGibhea vakati, “Ko, Dhavhidhi haana kuvanda pachikomo cheHakira, chakatarisana neJeshimoni here?”

2 Awo Sawulo n’abasajja abolondemu enkumi ssatu aba Isirayiri, ne bagolokoka ne baserengeta mu ddungu ery’e Zifu, okunoonya Dawudi.

Saka Sauro akaburuka akaenda kuRenje reZifi, ana varume zviuru zvitatu vakanga vasarudzwa pakati pavaIsraeri, kuti vandotsvaka Dhavhidhi ikoko.

3 Sawulo n’asiisira ku mabbali g’ekkubo ku lusozi Kakira okwolekera eddungu, naye Dawudi n’asigala mu ddungu. Awo bwe yalaba Sawulo ng’amugoberedde mu ddungu,

Sauro akaita musasa wake parutivi pomugwagwa uri pachikomo cheHakira chakatarisana neJeshimoni, asi Dhavhidhi akanga achigara murenje. Akati achiona kuti Sauro akanga amutevera imomo,

4 n’atuma abakessi okukakasiza ddala obanga Sawulo yali atuuse.

akatuma vasori akanzwa kuti Sauro akanga asvika, zvirokwazvo.

5 Dawudi n’agolokoka n’agenda mu kifo Sawulo we yali asiisidde. N’alaba Sawulo ne Abuneeri mutabani wa Neeri omuduumizi w’eggye, we baali beebase. Sawulo yali yeebase wakati mu lusiisira, ng’eggye limwetoolodde.

Ipapo Dhavhidhi akasimuka akaenda kunzvimbo kwakanga kwadzikwa musasa naSauro. Akaona pakanga pakavata Sauro naAbhineri mwanakomana waNeri mukuru wehondo. Sauro akanga akavata mukati momusasa, uye varwi vakavaka misasa yavo vakamupoteredza.

6 Awo Dawudi n’abuuza Akimereki Omukiiti ne Abisaayi muganda wa Yowaabu, mutabani wa Zeruyiya nti, “Ani anaaserengeta nange, tugende mu lusiisira lwa Sawulo?” Abisaayi n’addamu nti, “Nze n’aserengeta naawe.”

Ipapo Dhavhidhi akabvunza Ahimereki muHeti naAbhishai mwanakomana waZeruya, mununʼuna waJoabhu akati, “Ndianiko achapinda neni mumusasa kuna Sauro?” Abhishai akati, “Ndichaenda nemi.”

7 Awo Dawudi ne Abisaayi ne bagenda mu lusiisira ekiro, ne basanga Sawulo nga yeebase wakati mu lusiisira, effumu lye nga lisimbiddwa mu ttaka emitwetwe we. Abuneeri n’abaserikale baali beebase okumwetooloola.

Saka Dhavhidhi naAbhishai vakaenda kuvarwi usiku, uye vakawana Sauro avete mukati momusasa, pfumo rake rakabayirwa pasi pedyo nomusoro wake. Abhineri navarwi vakanga vavete vakamupoteredza.

8 Abisaayi n’agamba Dawudi nti, “Leero, Katonda awaddeyo omulabe wo mu mukono gwo. Kale nno mpa olukusa mmufumitire wansi awo n’effumu. Siimufumite gwakubiri.”

Abhishai akati kuna Dhavhidhi, “Nhasi Mwari aisa muvengi wenyu mumaoko enyu. Zvino regai ndimubayire pasi kamwe chete nepfumo rangu; handimbomubayi kaviri.”

9 Naye Dawudi n’addamu Abisaayi nti, “Tomuzikiriza, kubanga ani ayinza okugolola omukono gwe okutta oyo Mukama gwe yafukako amafuta, n’ataba na musango?

Asi Dhavhidhi akati kuna Abhishai, “Usamuparadza! Ndianiko angagona kutambanudza ruoko rwake pamuzodziwa waJehovha akashaya mhosva?

10 Mukama nga bw’ali omulamu, Mukama yennyini yali mukuba. Luliba lumu, olunaku lwe lulituuka n’afa, oba aligenda mu lutalo n’azikiririra eyo.

Zvirokwazvo naJehovha mupenyu, Jehovha pachake ndiye achamuuraya; zvimwe nguva yake ichasvika uye achafa, kana kuti achaenda kuhondo agofa.

11 Kikafuuwe nze okugolola omukono gwange okutta oyo Mukama gwe yafukako amafuta. Naye ddira effumu n’eccupa ey’amazzi ebiri emitwetwe we obisitule tugende.”

Asi Jehovha ngaandidzivise kuti ndirege kutambanudzira ruoko rwangu kumuzodziwa waJehovha. Zvino chitora pfumo nechirongo chemvura zviri pedyo nomusoro wake tiende.”

12 Awo Dawudi n’aggyawo effumu n’eccupa ey’amazzi ebyali emitwetwe wa Sawulo ne bagenda. Tewali yabalaba newaakubadde okukitegeera, wadde okusisimuka, kubanga bonna Mukama yali abeebasiza otulo tungi nnyo.

Saka Dhavhidhi akatora pfumo nechirongo chemvura pedyo nomusoro waSauro, ivo ndokubvapo. Hakuna akaona kana kuziva nezvazvo, uye hakuna kana akamuka. Vose vakanga vavete, nokuti Jehovha akanga avapa hope huru.

13 N’oluvannyuma Dawudi n’asomoka n’agenda emitala, n’ayimirira walako ku ntikko ey’olusozi, nga wakati waabwe waliwo ekibangirizi kinene.

Ipapo Dhavhidhi akayambuka akaenda kuno rumwe rutivi akandomira pamusoro pechikomo, chinhambwe chiri kure; pakanga pane nzvimbo yakafara pakati pavo.

14 N’akoowoola eggye ne Abuneeri mutabani wa Neeri ng’ayogera nti, “Tonziremu gwe Abuneeri?” Abuneeri n’addamu nti, “Ggwe ani alangiriza kabaka?”

Akadanidzira kuvarwi nokuna Abhineri mwanakomana waNeri akati, “Abhineri haundidaviri here?” Abhineri akapindura akati, “Ndiwe aniko unodanidzira kuna mambo?”

15 Awo Dawudi n’agamba Abuneeri nti, “Oli musajja muzira, si bwe kiri? Ani akwenkana mu Isirayiri? Kiki ekyakulobedde okukuuma obulungi mukama wo kabaka? Kubanga waabaddewo omuntu eyazze okuzikiriza mukama wo kabaka.

Dhavhidhi akati, “Uri murume, handizvo here? Uye ndianiko akaita sewe muIsraeri? Ko, wakaregererei kurinda ishe wako iye mambo? Mumwe akasvika kuzoparadza ishe wako iye mambo.

16 Ekyo kye wakoze si kirungi. Nga Mukama bw’ali omulamu, ggwe n’abasajja bo musaana kufa, olw’obulagajjavu bwammwe, kubanga temwakuumye mukama wammwe, Mukama gwe yafukako amafuta. Mutunule mwetegereze; effumu lya kabaka n’eccupa ey’amazzi ebyabadde emitwetwe wa kabaka biri ludda wa?”

Zvawaita hazvina kunaka. Zvirokwazvo naJehovha mupenyu, iwe navanhu vako munofanira kufa, nokuti hamuna kurinda tenzi wenyu, iye muzodziwa waJehovha. Chitarira pauri. Ko, pfumo ramambo nechirongo chavo zvakanga zviri pedyo nomusoro wavo zviripi?”

17 Sawulo n’ategeera nga ddoboozi lya Dawudi, n’abuuza nti, “Ye ggwe mutabani wange Dawudi?” Dawudi n’addamu nti, “Ye nze mukama wange kabaka.”

Sauro akaziva inzwi raDhavhidhi akati, “Ko, inzwi rako here Dhavhidhi mwanakomana wangu?” Dhavhidhi akapindura akati, “Hongu ndiro, ishe wangu mambo.”

18 Dawudi n’amubuuza nti, “Lwaki oyigganya omuweereza wo? Nakola ki, era musango ki gwe nazza?

Akatizve, “Seiko ishe wangu achidzinganisa muranda wake? Ndakaiteiko, uye mhosva yandakapara ndeipiko?

19 Kaakano nno, mukama wange kabaka wuliriza ebigambo by’omuweereza wo. Obanga Mukama ye yakusindise okunjigganya, akkirize ekiweebwayo. Naye bwe baba nga baana ba bantu, bakolimirwe mu maaso ga Mukama, kubanga leero bangobye nneme okugabana mu busika bwa Mukama nga bagamba nti, ‘Genda oweereze bakatonda abalala.’

Zvino ishe wangu mambo ngaateerere mashoko omuranda wake. Kana Jehovha akakukurudzirai kuti muzorwa neni, zvino ngaagamuchire chipiriso. Kana, zvakadaro hazvo, vari vanhu vakazviita, ngavatukwe pamberi paJehovha! Vakandidzinga zvino pamugove wangu panhaka yaJehovha vakati, ‘Enda undoshumira vamwe vamwari.’

20 Kale nno omusaayi gwange guleme okuyiyibwa wansi ewala Mukama gy’atabeera. Kabaka wa Isirayiri avuddeyo okunoonya enkukunyi, ng’omuntu bwe yandiyizze enkwale mu nsozi.”

Zvino ropa rangu ngarirege kuteukira pasi kure naJehovha. Mambo waIsraeri akabuda kuti azotsvaka nhata, somunhu anovhima chikwari mumakomo.”

21 Awo Sawulo n’ayogera nti, “Nnyonoonye. Komawo mutabani wange Dawudi. Sigenda kuddamu kugezaako kukukolako kabi n’akamu, kubanga leero ondaze, obulamu bwange bwe buli obw’omuwendo mu maaso go. Laba neeyisizza ng’omusirusiru, era nnyonoonye ekiyitiridde.”

Ipapo Sauro akati, “Ndakatadza. Dzoka, Dhavhidhi mwanakomana wangu. Nokuti waona kukosha kwoupenyu hwangu nhasi, handichaedzi kukuuraya zvakare. Zvirokwazvo ndakaita sebenzi uye ndakatadza zvikuru.”

22 Dawudi n’addamu nti, “Effumu lya kabaka liirino. Tuma omu ku bavubuka bo ajje aliddukire.

Dhavhidhi akati, “Heri pfumo ramambo. Regai mumwe wamajaya enyu auye kuno azoritora.

23 Mukama asasula buli muntu ng’obutuukirivu bwe n’obwesigwa bwe, bwe biri. Mukama yakuwaddeyo mu mukono gwange leero, naye ne sigolola mukono gwange ku oyo Mukama gwe yafukako amafuta.

Jehovha anoripira munhu mumwe nomumwe nokuda kwokururama kwake uye nokutendeka kwake. Jehovha akuisai mumaoko angu nhasi, asi handina kuda kutambanudzira ruoko rwangu pamuzodziwa waJehovha.

24 Nga bwe mbaliridde obulamu bwo okuba obw’omuwendo leero, kale obulamu bwange bubeere bwa muwendo mu maaso ga Mukama, era andokole mu bizibu byonna.”

Zvirokwazvo sezvandakoshesa upenyu hwenyu nhasi, saizvozvo Jehovha ngaakoshese upenyu hwangu agondiponesa pamatambudziko ose.”

25 Awo Sawulo n’addamu nti, “Oweebwe omukisa mutabani wange Dawudi. Olikola ebintu ebikulu bingi era oliraba omukisa mu byo.” Awo Dawudi n’agenda amakubo ge, ne Sawulo ne yeddirayo ewuwe.

Ipapo Sauro akati kuna Dhavhidhi, “Iwe uropafadzwe, mwanakomana wangu Dhavhidhi; iwe uchaita zvinhu zvikuru uye zvirokwazvo uchakunda.” Saka Dhavhidhi akaenda hake, uye Sauro akadzokera kumusha.
