2 Samwiri 21
1 Awo mu mirembe gya Dawudi ne waba enjala okumala emyaka esatu, Dawudi ne yeeyongera nnyo okunoonya Mukama. Mukama n’ayogera nti, “Ennyumba ya Sawulo ejjudde omusaayi, kubanga yatta Abagibyoni.”
Dawid ahennie so no, ɛkɔm baa asase no so mfeɛ mmiɛnsa, enti Dawid bisaa Awurade ɛkɔm no ho asɛm. Na Awurade kaa sɛ, “Esiane ɛfɔ a Saulo ne ne fiefoɔ di wɔ kunkum a wɔkunkumm Gibeonfoɔ no ho enti na ɛkɔm saa aba no.”
2 Kabaka n’akuŋŋaanya Abagibyoni n’ayogera gye bali. (Abagibyoni tebaali Bayisirayiri naye baali bakaawonawo ab’oku baana b’Abamoli. Abayisirayiri baali babalayiridde obutabakola kabi, naye Sawulo olw’obuggya bwe yalina n’agezaako okubazikiriza ku lwa Isirayiri ne Yuda.)
Enti, ɔhene Dawid frɛɛ Gibeonfoɔ no nyinaa. Na wɔnka Israelfoɔ no ho, na mmom, wɔyɛ Amorifoɔ nkaeɛfoɔ bi. Israel kaa ntam sɛ, wɔrenkum wɔn, nanso ɛsiane Saulo ahopereɛ enti, ɔpɛɛ sɛ ɔtɔre wɔn ase.
3 Dawudi n’abuuza Abagibyoni nti, “Mbakolere ki? Nnaabatangirira ntya, mmwe okuwa Isirayiri, obusika bwa Mukama omukisa?”
Dawid bisaa Gibeonfoɔ no sɛ, “Ɛdeɛn na mɛtumi ayɛ de apata mo? Monka, sɛdeɛ ɛbɛyɛ a Awurade bɛhyira ne nkurɔfoɔ bio.”
4 Abagibyoni ne bamuddamu nti, “Kye twetaaga okuva eri Sawulo oba ennyumba ye, si kigambo kya ffeeza oba zaabu, so tetulina buyinza kutta muntu yenna mu Isirayiri.” Dawudi n’ababuuza nti, “Kiki kye mwagala mbakolere?”
Gibeonfoɔ no buaa sɛ, “Anokwa, sika rentumi, na yɛmpɛ nso sɛ wɔbɛkunkum Israelfoɔ aweretɔ so.” Enti, Dawid kɔɔ so bisaa wɔn sɛ, “Enti, ɛdeɛn na menyɛ? Monka nkyerɛ me, na mɛyɛ ama mo.”
5 Ne baddamu kabaka nti, “Ku lw’omusajja eyatuyigganyanga n’ayagala okutuuzikiriza, ne tubulwako ne we tubeera mu Isirayiri,
Na wɔbuaa sɛ, “Ɛyɛ Saulo na ɔdwenee ho sɛ ɔbɛsɛe yɛn, sɛdeɛ yɛrennya afa biara wɔ Israel.
6 tuwe musanvu ku batabani be tubatte tubaanike mu maaso ga Mukama e Gibea ekya Sawulo, omulonde wa Mukama.” Kabaka n’ayogera nti, “Ndibabawa.”
Enti, wɔnyi Saulo mmammarima anaa ne nananom mmarima baason mma yɛn, na yɛbɛkum wɔn wɔ Awurade anim wɔ Gibea bepɔ no so.” Ɔhene no kaa sɛ, “Ɛyɛ. Mɛyɛ.”
7 Kabaka n’alekawo Mefibosesi mutabani wa Yonasaani, mutabani wa Sawulo.
Dawid gyaee Yonatan babarima Mefiboset a na ɔyɛ Saulo nana no, ɛsiane ntam a na Dawid ne Yonatan aka wɔ Awurade anim no enti.
8 Naye kabaka n’addira Alumoni ne Mefibosesi batabani ba Lizupa muwala wa Aya bombi be yazaalira Sawulo, ne batabani ba Mikali muwala wa Sawulo be yazaalira Abuliyeri mutabani wa Baluzirayi Omumekolasi Sawulo be yalabiriranga bataano, n’abawaayo.
Nanso, ɔde Saulo mmammarima baanu a na wɔn edin de Armoni ne Mefiboset a na wɔn maame Rispa no yɛ Aia babaa maa wɔn. Ɔsane de Saulo babaa Mikal a na ɔyɛ Adriel a na ɔyɛ Barsilai a ɔfiri Mehola no yere mmammarima baanum no maeɛ.
9 N’abawaayo eri Abagibyoni, ne babatta ne babaanika ku lusozi mu maaso ga Mukama. Bonna omusanvu ne battibwa mu nnaku ezaasooka ez’amakungula nga batandika amakungula ga sayiri.
Na Gibeon mmarima no kunkumm wɔn wɔ bepɔ no so wɔ Awurade anim. Enti, nnipa baason no nyinaa, wɔkunkumm wɔn wɔ ɛberɛ a wɔrefiri atokotwa afahyɛ no ase no.
10 Lizupa muwala wa Aya n’addira ebibukutu, n’abyaliira ku lwazi, okuva ku ntandikwa ey’amakungula okutuusa enkuba lwe yatonnya okuva mu ggulu, n’ataganya nnyonyi za mu bbanga newaakubadde ensolo enkambwe okulya emirambo gyabwe emisana oba ekiro.
Rispa a ɔyɛ mmarima no mu baanu maame no de ayitoma sɛɛ ɔbotan bi so, tenaa hɔ otwaberɛ no nyinaa mu. Wamma apete ammɛtete wɔn amu no awiaberɛ mu, na anadwo nso, ɔsii nkekaboa ho kwan.
11 Dawudi bwe yategeezebwa, Lizupa omuzaana wa Sawulo, muwala wa Aya, kye yakola,
Ɛberɛ a Dawid tee deɛ Rispa a na ɔyɛ Saulo mpena no ayɛ no,
12 n’agenda, n’aggya amagumba ga Sawulo n’aga mutabani we Yonasaani ku bantu ab’e Yabesugireyaadi, Abafirisuuti gye baagawanika, ku lunaku kwe battira Sawulo e Girubowa, abaali bagatutte mu bubba mu kifo ekigazi eky’abantu bonna e Besusani.
ɔkɔɔ nkurɔfoɔ a wɔfiri Yabes Gilead nkyɛn, kɔbisaa wɔn Saulo ne ne babarima Yonatan nnompe ase. (Ɛberɛ a Saulo ne Yonatan totɔɔ ɔko a wɔne Filistifoɔ koeɛ no ano no, Yabes Gileadfoɔ na wɔkɔtasee wɔn amu Filistifoɔ kuro Bet-San abɔntene so.)
13 Dawudi n’aggyayo amagumba ga Sawulo n’aga mutabani we Yonasaani, n’agakuŋŋaanya n’amagumba g’abo abattibwa ne baanikibwa.
Enti, Dawid de Saulo ne Yonatan nnompe baeɛ. Saa ara na ɔde mmarima a Gibeonfoɔ kunkumm wɔn no nnompe baeɛ.
14 Ne baziika amagumba ga Sawulo n’aga mutabani we Yonasaani mu ntaana ya Kiisi kitaawe wa Sawulo, e Zeera mu nsi ya Benyamini, ne bakola byonna kabaka bye yalagira. Oluvannyuma Katonda n’addamu okusaba kw’ensi.
Ɔsiee wɔn nyinaa wɔ Saulo agya Kis ɔboda a ɛwɔ kuro Sela a ɛwɔ Benyamin asase so no mu. Ɛno akyi, Onyankopɔn twaa ɛkɔm no so wɔ Israel asase so.
15 Ne waba nate olutalo wakati w’Abafirisuuti n’Abayisirayiri. Dawudi n’aserengeta n’abasajja be okulwana n’Abafirisuuti, n’akoowa nnyo.
Bio, Filistifoɔ ne Israel koeɛ. Na ɛberɛ a ɔko no duruu ne mpɔmpɔnsoɔ no, Dawid tɔɔ baha.
16 Awo Isubibenobu omu ku bazzukulu b’agasajja agawanvu yalina effumu ng’obuzito bw’omutwe gw’alyo kilo ssatu n’ekitundu ng’alina n’ekitala ekiggya, n’ayogera nti agenda okutta Dawudi.
Na Yisbi-Benob yɛ abrane no asefoɔ mu baako. Na ne pea mu duru kari boro kilogram mmiɛnsa ne fa, a wɔde akofena foforɔ ahyehyɛ ne ho. Na waka Dawid ahyɛ a anka ɔrebɛkum no.
17 Naye Abisaayi mutabani wa Zeruyiya n’adduukirira Dawudi, n’alumba Omufirisuuti, n’amutta. Awo abasajja ba Dawudi ne bamulayirira nti, “Tokyatabaala naffe ettaala ya Isirayiri ereme okuzikira.”
Nanso, Seruia babarima Abisai bɛgyee Dawid, na ɔkumm Filistini no. Ɛno akyi, Dawid mmarima no kaa ntam sɛ, “Wo ne yɛn renkɔ ɔko bio. Anyɛ saa a, Israel kanea bɛdum.”
18 Bwe waayitawo ebbanga ne wabaawo olutalo olulala n’Abafirisuuti e Gobu. Sibbekayi Omukusasi n’atta Safu omu ku bazzukulu b’agasajja gali agawanvu.
Yei akyi, ɔko foforɔ ba de tiaa Filistifoɔ no wɔ Gob. Wɔgu so reko no, Sibekai a ɔfiri Husan, kumm Saf a na ɔno nso yɛ abrane no asefoɔ no bi.
19 Ne wabaawo nate olutalo olulala n’Abafirisuuti e Gobu, Erukanani mutabani wa Yayiri Omubesirekemu n’atta muganda wa Goliyaasi Omugitti eyalina olunyago lw’effumu olwali ng’omuti ogulukirwako engoye.
Ɔko foforɔ bi a wɔkoo wɔ Gob no nso, Yair babarima Elhanan a ɔfiri Betlehem kumm Gatni Goliat nuabarima bi. Na ne pea nsa mu duru bɛyɛ sɛ ntomanwomfoɔ nsadua.
20 Ne waba olutalo olulala e Gaasi, ne wabaayo omusajja omuwanvu ennyo eyalina engalo mukaaga ku buli mukono n’ebigere mukaaga ku buli kigere, byonna awamu abiri mu bina. Era naye yali muzzukulu w’agasajja gali agawanvu ennyo.
Ɔko bi a ɛsii bio wɔ Gat nso, ɔbarima tetetuo bi a na ɔyɛ nsansia ne nansia a ɔyɛ abrane no aseni no
21 Bwe yasoomooza Isirayiri, Yonasaani mutabani wa Simeeya, muganda wa Dawudi, n’amutta.
pɛɛ sɛ ɔbu fa Israel so, gu nʼanim ase. Ɔno nso, Dawid nua Simea babarima Yonatan na ɔkumm no.
22 Abo abana baali bazzukulu b’agasajja gali agawanvu ennyo mu Gaasi, era bonna ne bagwa mu mukono gwa Dawudi ne basajja be.
Saa Filistifoɔ abrane baanan yi yɛ Gat abrane no asefoɔ. Na Dawid ne nʼakofoɔ na wɔkunkumm wɔn nyinaa.
