< 2 Samwiri 14 >
1 Awo Yowaabu mutabani wa Zeruyiya n’ategeera nga omutima gwa kabaka gulumirwa Abusaalomu.
Na Yoab hunuu sɛ ɔhene pɛ sɛ ɔhunu Absalom.
2 Yowaabu n’atumya omukazi omugezigezi okuva e Tekowa, n’amugamba nti, “Weefuule akungubaga, oyambale engoye ez’okukungubaga, teweesiiga mafuta, obeere ng’omukyala amaze ennaku ennyingi ng’akungubagira omufu.
Enti, ɔsoma ma wɔkɔɔ Tekoa kɔfaa ɔbaa nyansafoɔ bi a wagye edin yie brɛɛ no. Yoab ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Hyɛ da yɛ wo ho sɛ wowɔ ayie mu, na fira ayitoma. Nnware anaa mfa aduhwam mpete wo ho nso. Yɛ wo ho sɛ ɔbaa a wadi awerɛhoɔ nna bebree.
3 Genda eri kabaka, omugambe ebigambo bino.” Yowaabu n’amuwa ebigambo eby’okwogera.
Na kɔ ɔhene nkyɛn kɔka asɛm a merebɛka akyerɛ wo yi kyerɛ no.” Na Yoab kaa asɛm a ɔpɛ sɛ ɔbaa no kɔka no kyerɛɛ no.
4 Awo omukazi ow’e Tekowa n’agenda eri kabaka, n’avuunama amaaso ge ku ttaka, ne yeeyanza, n’ayogera nti, “Mbeera, ayi kabaka.”
Na Tekoani baa no duruu ɔhene no anim no, ɔhwee fam de nʼanim butuu fam teaam sɛ, “Ao Nana! Boa me!”
5 Kabaka n’amubuuza nti, “Nkubeere mu ki?” N’addamu nti, “Ndi nnamwandu baze yafa.
Ɔhene no bisaa no sɛ, “Ɛyɛ asɛm bɛn?” Ɔbuaa no sɛ, “Meyɛ okunafoɔ.
6 Nalina batabani bange babiri. Bombi baalwanira ku ttale ne wataba n’omu abataasa, omu n’atta munne.
Me mma baanu kɔdii ako wɔ akono. Na ɛsiane sɛ na obiara nni hɔ a ɔbɛpata ɔko no enti, wɔkumm wɔn mu baako.
7 Kaakano ekika kyonna kiyimukidde omuweereza wo, nga boogera nti, ‘Tuwe omusajja oyo asse muganda we, tumutte olw’obulamu bwa muganda we gwe yatta, tutte n’omusika.’ Mu ngeri eyo banaaba bazikizza etabaaza yokka gye nsigazza, obutalekaawo linnya lya baze wange newaakubadde obusika bwe ku nsi yonna.”
Nanso, abusua no nkaeɛ no bisaa sɛ, ‘Ma yɛn nsa nka wo ba no. Yɛbɛkum no, ɛfiri sɛ, woakum ne nuabarima. Ɔmfata sɛ ɔbɛdi efie agyapadeɛ so.’ Na sɛ meyɛ saa nso a, na menni obiara a waka, na me kunu din ne me fie bɛyera wɔ asase so ha.”
8 Awo kabaka n’agamba omukazi nti, “Ddayo eka, nzija kukola ku nsonga yo.”
Ɔhene ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Gyae asɛm no ma me. Kɔ efie na mɛhwɛ sɛ obiara remfa ne nsa nka no.”
9 Naye omukazi ow’e Tekowa n’agamba kabaka nti, “Mukama wange kabaka, omusango ka gubeere ku nze, n’ennyumba ya kitange; kabaka n’obwakabaka bwe buleme kubeerako musango.”
Ɔkaa sɛ, “Ao, me wura, meda wo ase. Na sɛ mmoa a woaboa me yi enti, sɛ obi kasa tia wo a, mɛfa ho soboɔ no.”
10 Kabaka n’addamu nti, “Bwe wanaabeerawo omuntu yenna abaako kya kugamba, mundeetere, taddeyo nate kukutawanya.”
Ɔhene no kaa sɛ, “Mma yei nha wo. Sɛ nnipa bi mpene a, fa wɔn brɛ me wɔ ha. Na mɛtumi ama wo awerɛhyɛmu sɛ, obiara nwiinwii wɔ ho bio.”
11 Omukazi n’ayogera nti, “Nkwegayiridde, kabaka, ondayirire eri Mukama Katonda wo, awalana eggwanga olw’omusaayi era aziyiza obubi okweyongera ku bubi, mutabani wange aleme okuzikirizibwa.” N’amuddamu nti, “Mukama nga bw’ali omulamu, tewaliba luviiri olwa mutabani wo olulimuva ku mutwe.”
Afei, ɔbaa no kaa sɛ, “Fa Awurade, wo Onyankopɔn, no din ka ntam kyerɛ me sɛ, woremma obiara ntɔ me babarima no so were. Merenhwehwɛ mogyahwieguo bio.” Ɔhene no nso kaa sɛ, “Mmerɛ dodoɔ a Awurade te ase yi, wo ba no tirinwi a ɛwɔ ne tiri so mu baako mpo ho renka.”
12 Awo omukazi n’agamba kabaka nti, “Nkwegayiridde, ka mbeeko ekigambo kye ŋŋamba mukama wange kabaka.” N’amuddamu nti, “Yogera.”
Afei, ɔbaa no kaa sɛ, “Ma wo ɔsomfoɔ nka biribi nkyerɛ me wura ɔhene.” Ɔbuaa sɛ, “Kɔ so kasa.”
13 Omukazi n’ayogera nti, “Kiki ekikukoza ekigambo bwe kityo abantu ba Katonda? Kabaka aba teyeesalira yekka omusango kubanga takomezaawo omwana we eyagobebwa?
Ɔbaa no bisaa sɛ, “Adɛn enti na wonyɛ mma Onyankopɔn nkurɔfoɔ sɛdeɛ wɔahyɛ bɔ sɛ wobɛyɛ ama me no. Woabu wo ho fɔ sɛ woasi saa gyinaeɛ yi. Wompɛ sɛ woma wʼankasa wo ba a wɔatwa no asuo no ba efie.
14 Ffenna tuli baakufa, ng’amazzi bwe gayiibwa ku ttaka, ne gatayinzika kuyooleka nate. Naye Katonda taggyawo bulamu, anoonya engeri gy’anaayinza okukomyawo omuntu abuze.
Sɛ ɛkɔsi sɛn ara, obiara bɛwu. Na sɛdeɛ nsuo hwie gu fam a wosesa a ɛnyɛ yie no, saa ara na nkwa teɛ. Ɛno enti na Onyankopɔn sane de yɛn ba ne nkyɛn ɛberɛ a yɛate yɛn ho afiri ne ho no. Wɔn a ɔhwɛ wɔn no, ɔmma wɔnnhwere wɔn kra; enti wo nso, ɛnsɛ sɛ woyɛ saa.
15 “Kale nno ekyo kye kyandeese eri kabaka, kubanga abantu bantiisizza, ne baleetera omuweereza wo okulowooza nti, ‘Bwe nnaayogera ne kabaka, mpozzi aliddamu omuweereza we ky’amusaba.
“Na maba sɛ merebɛdi ama me babarima, ɛfiri sɛ, wɔde owuo hunahuna me ne me ba no. Meka kyerɛɛ me ho sɛ, ‘Ebia, ɔhene bɛtie me,
16 Oboolyawo kabaka anaawulira ensonga yange, n’alokola omuzaana we mu mukono gw’omusajja agezaako okunzikiriza nze n’omwana wange okutuggyako obusika Katonda bwe yatuwa.’
na wagye yɛn afiri wɔn a wɔbɛtwa yɛn afiri Onyankopɔn nkurɔfoɔ ho no nsam.’
17 “Era omuweereza wo yayogedde mu mutima gwe nti, ‘Ekigambo kya mukama wange kabaka kye kirimpummuza, kubanga mukama wange kabaka ali nga malayika wa Katonda mu kwawulamu ebirungi n’ebibi. Mukama Katonda wo abeere naawe.’”
“Aane, ɔhene no bɛma yɛn asomdwoeɛ bio. ‘Menim sɛ wote sɛ Onyankopɔn ɔbɔfoɔ a wobɛtumi ahunu papa ne bɔne ntam nsonsonoeɛ. Awurade, wo Onyankopɔn, nka wo ho.’”
18 Awo kabaka n’agamba omukazi nti, “Tobaako n’ekimu ky’onkisa ku bye nnaakubuuza.” Omukazi n’addamu nti, “Mukama wange kabaka ambuuze.”
Ɔhene bisaa sɛ, “Mepɛ sɛ mehunu adeɛ baako.” Ɔbaa no kaa sɛ, “Ɛyɛ ɛdeɛn, me wura?”
19 Kabaka n’amubuuza nti, “Omukono gwa Yowaabu guli wamu naawe mu bigambo ebyo byonna?” Omukazi n’amuddamu nti, “Nga bw’oli omulamu mukama wange kabaka, tewali ayinza okukubuzaabuza ng’adda ku mukono ogwa ddyo oba ogwa kkono okukuggya ku ky’oyogera mukama wange kabaka. Weewaawo, omuddu wo Yowaabu yeyandagidde, n’ampa n’ebigambo ebyo byonna.
Na ɔhene no bisaa sɛ, “Yoab na ɔsomaa wo ha anaa?” Ɔbaa no buaa sɛ, “Me wura, Daasebrɛ, ɛbɛyɛ dɛn na matwa yei ho atorɔ? Obiara ntumi mfa biribiara nhinta wo. Ɛyɛ nokorɛ sɛ Yoab na ɔsomaa me, na ɔkyerɛɛ me asɛm a menka.
20 Omuddu wo Yowaabu, ekyo y’akikoze okukyusa embeera eriwo kaakano. Naye mukama wange mugezigezi nga malayika wa Katonda amanyi byonna ebifa ku nsi.”
Ɔyɛɛ saa, sɛdeɛ mɛfa ɛkwan foforɔ so de saa asɛm yi ato wʼanim. Na wo nso, wonim nyansa te sɛ Onyankopɔn ɔbɔfoɔ, na biribiara a ɛsi yɛn ntam ha no nso, wote aseɛ.”
21 Awo kabaka n’agamba Yowaabu nti, “Kale, nzija kukikola. Genda okime omuvubuka Abusaalomu.”
Enti, ɔhene no soma ma wɔkɔfaa Yoab baeɛ, na ɔka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Ɛyɛ, kɔ na kɔfa aberanteɛ Absalom bra.”
22 Awo Yowaabu n’agwa bugazi ku ttaka ne yeeyanza, n’asabira kabaka omukisa, n’ayogera nti, “Leero, omuddu wo ategedde ng’alabye ekisa mu maaso go, mukama wange kabaka, kubanga kabaka azeemu okwegayirira okw’omuddu we.”
Yoab hwee ɔhene no nan ase, hyiraa no sɛ, “Ne korakora mu no, woapene me so, na woayɛ mʼabisadeɛ ama me.”
23 Yowaabu n’agenda e Gesuli n’akima Abusaalomu n’amukomyawo e Yerusaalemi.
Na Yoab kɔɔ Gesur kɔfaa Absalom baa Yerusalem.
24 Naye kabaka n’awa ekiragiro nti, “Ateekwa kugenda mu nnyumba eyiye ku bubwe, tateekwa kulaba maaso gange.” Awo Abusaalomu n’abeera mu nnyumba eyiye ku bubwe, n’atalaba maaso ga kabaka.
Nanso, ɔhene maa ahyɛdeɛ yi sɛ, “Absalom tumi kɔ ɔno ankasa ne fie, nanso ɔnhwɛ na wamma mʼanim ha.” Enti, Absalom anhunu ɔhene no.
25 Mu Isirayiri yonna temwali n’omu eyatenderezebwa nga Abusaalomu olw’endabika ye ennungi, kubanga okuviira ddala ku mutwe okutuuka ku bigere teyaliiko kamogo.
Israel nyinaa, na obiara nni hɔ a ne ho yɛ fɛ, te sɛ Absalom. Ɛfiri ne tiri so kɔsi ne nan ase, na wohunu sɛ ɔyɛ ɔbarima ankasa.
26 Buli lwe yasalanga enviiri ze, lwe zali ng’ennyingi ku mutwe gwe, obuzito bw’azo bw’ali nga kilo bbiri ne desimoolo ssatu ng’ebipimo bya kabaka bwe byali.
Afe biara, na ɔyi ne ti pɛnkorɔ, ɛfiri sɛ, ne nwi no yɛ adesoa ma no. Na sɛ ɔyi na ɔkari a, na ɛyɛ kilogram mmienu ne fa.
27 Abusaalomu n’azaalirwa abaana basatu aboobulenzi n’owoobuwala omu. Omuwala ye yali Tamali nga mukyala mulungi nnyo ku maaso.
Na ɔwɔ mmammarima baasa ne ɔbabaa baako. Na ne babaa no din de Tamar. Na Tamar nso kura ahoɔfɛ a ɛmma ɔka.
28 Abusaalomu n’abeera mu Yerusaalemi okumala emyaka ebiri nga talaba maaso ga kabaka.
Absalom tenaa Yerusalem mfeɛ mmienu a wanhunu ɔhene no da.
29 Awo Abusaalomu n’atumya Yowaabu amutume eri kabaka, naye Yowaabu n’atagendayo. N’amutumya omulundi ogwokubiri, naye era n’agaana okugenda yo.
Afei, Absalom soma kɔfrɛɛ Yoab sɛ ɔnkɔka bi mma no, nanso Yoab ankɔ. Absalom somaa ne mprenu so, nanso Yoab ankɔ.
30 Abusaalomu n’agamba abaddu be nti, “Ennimiro ya Yowaabu eriraanye eyange, era alinamu sayiri. Mugende mugikumeko omuliro.” Awo abaddu ba Abusaalomu ne bagikumako omuliro ne bagyokya.
Ɛno enti, Absalom ka kyerɛɛ nʼasomfoɔ sɛ, “Monkɔ na momfa ogya nkɔto Yoab atokoɔ afuo a ɛbɛn me deɛ no ho mu.” Na wɔde ogya kɔtoo afuo no mu, sɛdeɛ Absalom hyɛɛ wɔn sɛ wɔnyɛ no.
31 Yowaabu n’agolokoka n’agenda eri Abusaalomu mu nnyumba ye n’amubuuza nti, “Lwaki abaddu bo bookezza ennimiro yange?”
Na Yoab baa Absalom nkyɛn bɛbisaa no sɛ, “Adɛn enti na wʼasomfoɔ akɔto mʼafuo mu ogya?”
32 Abusaalomu n’agamba Yowaabu nti, “Laba, nakutumya, nga ŋŋamba ojje wano nkutume eri kabaka okumubuuza nti, ‘Lwaki nava e Gesuli? Kyandisinze singa nasigala eyo.’ Kaakano njagala kugenda mu maaso ga kabaka, obanga nnina omusango, anzite.”
Na Absalom buaa no sɛ, “Ɛfiri sɛ, na mepɛ sɛ wokɔbisa ɔhene ma me sɛ, adɛn enti na ɔmaa me sane firi Gesur baeɛ, nanso ɔmpɛ sɛ ɔhunu mʼanim koraa? Ɛnneɛ, sɛ anka metenaa me dada mu hɔ ara a, anka ɛyɛ. Ma menhunu ɔhene no, na sɛ medi fɔ wɔ biribi ho a, ɔtumi kum me.”
33 Awo Yowaabu n’agenda eri kabaka, n’amutegeeza ebigambo ebyo. Kabaka n’atumya Abusaalomu, n’ajja, n’avuunama amaaso ge wansi mu maaso ga kabaka. Kabaka n’amunywegera.
Enti, Yoab kaa asɛm a Absalom aka akyerɛ no no kyerɛɛ ɔhene no. Afei, Dawid frɛɛ ne ba a wate ne ho no, ma ɔbaa nʼanim. Absalom bɛduruu ɔhene no anim no, ɔbɔɔ ne mu ase, na Dawid fee nʼano.
