1 Oluvannyuma lw’ebyo Dawudi ne yeebuuza ku Mukama nti, “Nyambuke mu kimu ku bibuga bya Yuda?” Mukama n’amuddamu nti, “Yambuka.” N’abuuza nate nti, “Ŋŋende mu kiruwa?” Mukama n’amuddamu nti, “E Kebbulooni.”
Mmerɛ no ara mu, Dawid bisaa Awurade sɛ, “Mensane nkɔ Yuda anaa?” Awurade buaa no sɛ, “Kɔ.” Dawid bisaa no sɛ, “Kuro bɛn na menkɔ so?” Awurade buaa no sɛ, “Hebron.”
2 Awo Dawudi n’agenda eyo ne bakyala be bombi, Akinoamu Omuyezuleeri ne Abbigayiri nnamwandu wa Nabali ow’e Kalumeeri.
Na Dawid yerenom ne Ahinoam a ɔfiri Yesreel ne Abigail a ɔfiri Karmel a na ɔyɛ Nabal yere no. Enti Dawid ne ne yerenom,
3 Dawudi n’atwala n’abasajja abaali naye, buli muntu n’amaka ge, ne basenga mu Kebbulooni ne mu byalo byakyo.
ne ne mmarima ne wɔn fiefoɔ nyinaa tu kɔɔ Yuda, na wɔkɔtenaa Hebron ne ne nkuro so.
4 Awo abantu ba Yuda ne bajja mu Kebbulooni, ne bafukirako eyo Dawudi amafuta okuba kabaka w’ennyumba ya Yuda. Dawudi n’ategeezebwa nti abantu ab’e Yabesugireyaadi be baaziika Sawulo,
Afei, Yuda ntuanofoɔ kɔɔ Hebron, kɔsraa Dawid ngo sii no ɔhene wɔ Yuda abusuakuo so. Na ɛberɛ a Dawid tee sɛ Yabes Gilead mmarima asie Saulo no,
5 n’abatumira ababaka okubagamba nti, “Mukama abawe omukisa olw’ekisa n’ekitiibwa bye mwalaga Sawulo mukama wammwe ne mumuziika.
ɔtoo wɔn nkra sɛ, “Awurade nhyira mo sɛ moayi nokorɛ a ɛte saa adi, ama mo wura Saulo, na moasie no animuonyam so.
6 Mukama abalage ekisa n’okwagala, nange ndibalaga ky’ekimu olw’ekyo kye mukoze.
Na afei, Awurade ne mo nni no yie na ɔntua mo dɔ sononko yi so ka. Na me nso mɛtua mo deɛ moayɛ yi so ka.
7 Noolwekyo kyemunaava mubeera ab’amaanyi era abavumu, kubanga oluvannyuma olw’okufa kwa Sawulo mukama wammwe, ennyumba ya Yuda enfuseeko amafuta okubeera kabaka waabwe.”
Afei a Saulo awu yi, mepɛ sɛ mobɛyɛ mʼasomfoɔ nokwafoɔ sɛ Yudafoɔ a wɔasra me ngo sɛ menni wɔn so ɔhene no.”
8 Mu biro ebyo, Abuneeri mutabani wa Neeri, omuduumizi w’eggye lya Sawulo, n’atwala Isubosesi mutabani wa Sawulo e Makanayimu.
Na Ner babarima Abner a na ɔyɛ Saulo safohene wɔ nʼakodɔm so ne Saulo babarima Is-Boset kɔɔ Mahanaim.
9 N’amufuula kabaka w’e Gireyaadi, ow’Abasuuli, ow’e Yezuleeri, owa Efulayimu, owa Benyamini era owa Isirayiri yenna.
Ɛhɔ na ɔsii Is-Boset ɔhene wɔ Gilead, Yesreel, Efraim, Benyamin, Asurifoɔ asase ne Israel nyinaa so.
10 Isubosesi, mutabani wa Sawulo yali wa myaka amakumi ana we yatandika okufuga Isirayiri, era n’afugira emyaka ebiri. Naye ennyumba ya Yuda ne bagoberera Dawudi.
Ɛberɛ a Is-Boset dii adeɛ no, na wadi mfirinhyia aduanan, na ɔdii adeɛ firi Mahanaim mfeɛ mmienu. Na Yuda abusuakuo no dii Dawid nokorɛ.
11 Ebbanga Dawudi lye yabeerera kabaka mu Kebbulooni ng’afuga ennyumba ya Yuda lyali emyaka musanvu n’emyezi mukaaga.
Dawid yɛɛ Hebron ne kuropɔn. Na ɔdii Yuda so ɔhene mfirinhyia nson ne fa.
12 Abuneeri mutabani wa Neeri n’abasajja ba Isubosesi mutabani wa Sawulo, ne bava e Makanayimu ne bagenda e Gibyoni.
Ɛda koro bi, Abner dii Is-Boset akodɔm anim, firi Mahanaim kɔɔ Gibeon.
13 Yowaabu mutabani wa Zeruyiya n’abasajja ba Dawudi ne bagenda okubasisinkana ku kidiba eky’e Gibyoni. Ekibinja ekimu ne kituula ku luuyi olumu olw’ekidiba, n’ekirala ne kituula ku luuyi olulala.
Saa ɛberɛ korɔ no ara mu, Seruia babarima Yoab nso dii Dawid akodɔm anim, firi Hebron na wɔhyiaa Abner wɔ Gibeon ɔtadeɛ ho. Akuo mmienu no tenatenaa ase a na wɔdi nhwɛanimu.
14 Awo Abuneeri n’agamba Yowaabu nti, “Abamu ku basajja bagolokoke beegezeemu mu maaso gaffe.” Yowaabu n’amuddamu nti, “Kale bagolokoke.”
Afei, Abner susuu ho kyerɛɛ Yoab sɛ, “Ma yɛmfa yɛn akofoɔ no mu kakra, na wɔmfa wɔn nsa nni ako nyɛ oyikyerɛ.” Yoab penee so kaa sɛ, “Wɔnsɔre nko ɛ.”
15 Ne bagolokoka, kkumi na babiri ne babalibwa okuva ku ludda lwa Benyamini ne Isubosesi mutabani wa Sawulo, n’ababala kkumi na babiri okuva ku ludda lwa Dawudi.
Enti, wɔyii mmarima dumienu firii ekuo biara mu sɛ wɔnni wɔn ho ako.
16 Buli omu n’akwatagana ne gwe yali atunuuliganye naye, ne banyolegana emitwe, ne bafumitigana amafumu, ne bagwira wamu. Era ekifo ekyo mu Gibyoni ne kituumibwa Kerukasu-Kazzulimu.
Obiara sɔɔ ne tiafoɔ tirinwi mu, de nʼakofena wowɔɔ wɔn ho, maa wɔn nyinaa wuwuiɛ. Enti, wɔfrɛ atɔeɛ mu hɔ sɛ Akofena Afuo de bɛsi ɛnnɛ.
17 Olutalo ne lweyongerera ddala, Abuneeri n’abasajja be ne bawangulwa abasajja ba Dawudi.
Afei, akodɔm mmienu no de ɔko hyehyɛɛ so, na saa da no baa awieeɛ no, na Dawid akodɔm no adi Abner ne Israel so nkonim.
18 Batabani ba Zeruyiya abasatu Yowaabu, Abisaayi, ne Asakeri baaliyo, era Asakeri yali muwenyusi wa misinde ng’empeewo ey’omu ttale.
Na Yoab, Abisai ne Asahel a wɔyɛ Seruia mmammarima baasa no ka Dawid akodɔm no ho saa da no. Na Asahel tu mmirika te sɛ ɔforoteɛ,
19 Asakeri n’agoba Abuneeri emisinde, obutatunula ku mukono ogwa ddyo wadde ogwa kkono.
na ɔpamoo Abner ara sɛ, ɔbɛkyere no.
20 Awo Abuneeri bwe yatunula emabega we, n’abuuza nti, “Ye ggwe Asakeri?” N’addamu nti, “Ye nze.”
Ɛberɛ a Abner twaa nʼani hunuu sɛ ɔgu ne so no, ɔteaam sɛ, “Wo nie, Asahel!” Ɔbuaa sɛ, “Aane, ɛyɛ me!”
21 Abuneeri n’amugamba nti, “Tunula ku mukono gwo ogwa ddyo oba ku mukono gwo ogwa kkono ogye ku omu ku bavubuka akuli okumpi ekyokulwanyisa kye.” Naye Asakeri n’atalekaayo kumugoba.
Na Abner ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Ɛnneɛ, kɔpɛ obi foforɔ, na wone no nko. Kɔ na kɔsi mmeranteɛ no baako so, na gye nʼakodeɛ a ɛwɔ ne ho nyinaa.” Nanso, Asahel, kɔɔ so taa no.
22 Abuneeri n’addamu okumulabula ng’agamba nti, “Bw’oleka okungoba! Lwaki ondeetera okukutta? Muganda wo Yowaabu nnaamudda wa?”
Bio, Abner teaam ka kyerɛɛ Asahel sɛ, “Firi ha kɔ! Sɛ mekum wo a, merentumi nhwɛ wo nuabarima Yoab anim.”
23 Naye Asakeri ne yeeyongera bweyongezi okumugoba; Abuneeri kwe kumufumita mu lubuto n’omuwunda gw’effumu, effumu ne liggukira mu mugongo, n’agwa wansi era n’afiirawo.
Nanso, Asahel antie ara, enti Abner de ne pea no wɔɔ ne yafunu mu, maa pea no pue firii nʼakyi. Ɔbu hwee fam hɔ wuiɛ. Na obiara a ɔduruu atɔeɛ mu hɔ no gyinaa dinn hwɛɛ Asahel sɛ ɔda hɔ.
24 Naye Yowaabu ne Abisaayi ne bagoba Abuneeri. Enjuba bwe yali eneetera okugwa, ne batuuka ku lusozi Amma, oluliraanye Giya mu kkubo ery’eddungu ery’e Gibyoni.
Ɛberɛ a Yoab ne Abisai tee asɛm a asi no, wɔkɔɔ sɛ wɔrekɔhwehwɛ Abner. Ɛberɛ a wɔduruu Amma bepɔ a ɛbɛn Gia a ɛwɔ ɛkwan a ɛda hɔ kɔ Gibeon ɛserɛ so no, na onwunu adwo.
25 Awo abasajja b’e Benyamini ne beekola ekibinja kimu, ne badda ku luuyi lwa Abuneeri, ne bayimirira ku lusozi olumu.
Abner akodɔm a wɔfiri Benyamin abusuakuo mu no boaa wɔn ho ano wɔ bepɔ no so yɛɛ krado maa ɔko.
26 Abuneeri n’akoowoola Yowaabu n’ayogera nti, “Ekitala kirirya ennaku zonna? Tolaba nti enkomerero ya byonna buliba bukyayi bwereere? Kale kiki ekikulobera okulagira abantu bo balekeraawo okucocca baganda baabwe?”
Ɛhɔ na Abner teaam, ka kyerɛɛ Yoab sɛ, “Enti, ɛsɛ sɛ daa yɛfa akofena so de ka yɛn ntam asɛm anaa? Monnhunu sɛ, saa ɛkwan no de nitan bɛto yɛn ntam? Da bɛn na wobɛfrɛ wo mmarima no aka akyerɛ wɔn sɛ, wɔnnyae wɔn nuanom Israelfoɔ akyidie?”
27 Yowaabu n’addamu nti, “Katonda nga bw’ali omulamu, ne bwe watandikyogedde, obudde bwe bwandikeeredde ng’abasajja balekeddaawo okugoba baganda baabwe.”
Na Yoab kaa sɛ, “Sɛ woankasa a anka, Onyankopɔn nko ara na ɔnim deɛ ɛbɛba; anka yɛbɛtaa wo anadwo mu no nyinaa.”
28 Awo Yowaabu n’afuuwa ekkondeere, abasajja bonna ne bayimirira, ne balekeraawo okugoba Isirayiri, era n’okubalwanyisa.
Enti, Yoab hyɛn ne totorobɛnto, maa ne mmarima no gyaee Israel akodɔm no so taa.
29 Ekiro ekyo kyonna Abuneeri n’abasajja be ne batambula ne bayita mu Alaba, ne basomoka Yoludaani, ne batambula mu kiseera eky’oku makya kyonna ne batuuka e Makanayimu.
Anadwo mu no nyinaa, Abner ne ne mmarima nante kɔɔ Araba. Wɔtwaa Yordan bɔnhwa, toaa so kɔɔ Bitron, bɛduruu Mahanaim.
30 Awo Yowaabu n’addayo ng’alese okugoba Abuneeri, n’akuŋŋaanya abasajja be. Bwe baababala, ne basanga ng’abasajja kkumi na mwenda be baali bafudde, okwo nga tobaliddeeko Asakeri.
Na Yoab gyaee Abner akyidie, na ɔboaboaa ne mmarima ano. Asahel akyi no, wɔhunuu sɛ Dawid mmarima no mu dunkron ayera.
31 Naye abasajja ba Dawudi baali basse Ababenyamini ebikumi bisatu mu nkaaga ku abo abaali ne Abuneeri.
Nanso, na Dawid mmarima no akunkum Benyaminfoɔ no mu nnipa ahansia ne aduosia a na wɔka Abner ho no.
32 Ne batwala omulambo gwa Asakeri ne bamuziika ku biggya bya kitaawe e Besirekemu. N’oluvannyuma Yowaabu n’abasajja be ne batambula ekiro kyonna, ne batuuka e Kebbulooni enkeera.
Wɔfaa Asahel siee no wɔ nʼagya ɔboda mu wɔ Betlehem. Na Yoab ne ne mmarima nantee anadwo mu no nyinaa kɔduruu Hebron adekyeeɛ.
