2 Samwiri 24

1 Awo Mukama n’asunguwalira Isirayiri nate, n’aleetera Dawudi okubabala. Dawudi n’alagira nti, “Genda obale Isirayiri ne Yuda.”

Bio, Awurade abufuo baa Israel so enti, ɔhyɛɛ Dawid sɛ ɔmfa nnipakan so nha wɔn a wɔwɔ Israel ne Yuda nyinaa. Awurade see Dawid sɛ, “Kɔ na kɔkan Israelfoɔ ne Yudafoɔ nyinaa.”

2 Kabaka n’alagira Yowaabu n’abaduumizi ab’eggye nti, “Mugende mu bika byonna ebya Isirayiri okuva e Ddaani okutuuka e Beeruseba mubale abantu, ntegeere omuwendo gwabwe.”

Enti, ɔhene no ka kyerɛɛ ne sahene Yoab sɛ, “Kan nnipa a wɔwɔ asase yi so nyinaa, ɛfiri Dan a ɛwɔ atifi fam, de bɛsi Beer-Seba a ɛwɔ anafoɔ fam, na ama mahunu nnipa dodoɔ a wɔwɔ ha.”

3 Naye Yowaabu n’addamu kabaka nti, “Mukama Katonda wo ayongere ku bantu bo emirundi kikumi n’okusingawo, nga mukama wange kabaka akyali mulamu. Naye kiki ekikukoza ekintu bwe kityo mukama wange kabaka?”

Na Yoab buaa ɔhene no sɛ, “Awurade mma wo ntena ase kɔsi sɛ nnipa a wɔwɔ wʼahennie yi mu ase bɛtrɛ mmɔho ɔha. Na adɛn enti na wopɛ sɛ woyɛ yei?”

4 Naye ekigambo kya kabaka ne kisinga amaanyi ebigambo bya Yowaabu n’abaduumizi b’eggye, era ne bava mu maaso ga kabaka ne batanula okubala abantu ba Isirayiri.

Na ɔhene no hyɛɛ no ketee sɛ, wɔnkan nnipa enti, Yoab ne nʼadwumayɛfoɔ kɔkanee nnipa a wɔwɔ Israel.

5 Oluvannyuma olw’okusomoka Yoludaani, ne basiisira okumpi ne Aloweri ku luuyi olw’obukiikaddyo olw’ekibuga mu kiwonvu, ne bayitira mu Gaadi okutuuka e Yazeri.

Deɛ ɛdi ɛkan no, wɔtwaa Yordan kɔtenaa Aroer, kuro a ɛwɔ bɔnhwa no anafoɔ a ɛkyerɛ Gad no. Afei, wɔkɔɔ Yaser,

6 Ne bagenda e Gireyaadi ne mu kitundu kya Tatimukodusi, ne batuuka e Ddaani-Yaani ne beebungulula ne baggukira e Sidoni.

toaa so kɔduruu Gilead a ɛwɔ Tatim-hodsi, toaa so kɔɔ Dan Yaan ne Sidon fa mu.

7 Ne bagenda ku kigo eky’e Ttuulo ne mu bibuga byonna eby’Abakiivi n’eby’Abakanani, ne bakomekkereza omulimu gwabwe e Beeruseba mu bukiikaddyo obwa Yuda.

Afei, wɔbaa Tiro aban mu ne Hewifoɔ ne Kanaanfoɔ nkuropɔn nyinaa mu. Wɔkɔɔ Yuda anafoɔ, kɔduruu Beer-Seba de wieeɛ.

8 Awo oluvannyuma olw’okuyitaayita mu nsi yonna omulimu nga bagukoledde emyezi mwenda n’ennaku amakumi abiri, ne baddayo e Yerusaalemi.

Wɔwurawuraa asase no nyinaa so, de abosome nkron ne nnafua aduonu wiee nnipakan no, sane kɔɔ Yerusalem.

9 Yowaabu n’awaayo omuwendo gw’abantu bonna eri kabaka. Mu Isirayiri mwaweramu abasajja abalwanyi emitwalo kinaana, ne mu Yuda ne muweramu abasajja abalwanyi emitwalo amakumi ataano.

Yoab de ne nnipa dodoɔ a wɔnyaeɛ brɛɛ ɔhene no. Na mmarima a wɔaduru sraadie mfeɛ so wɔ Israel no dodoɔ yɛ mpem aha nwɔtwe, na mpem ahanum nso wɔ Yuda.

10 Naye Dawudi n’akeŋŋeentererwa emmeeme olw’ekikolwa ekyo eky’okubala abantu. N’agamba Mukama nti, “Nnyonoonye nnyo olw’ekyo kye nkoze. Kaakano, Ayi Mukama Katonda nziggyako omusango guno omuddu wo gw’azizza, kubanga nkoze eky’obusirusiru.”

Dawid kan nnipa no nyinaa wieeɛ no, nʼatiboa buu no fɔ, enti ɔka kyerɛɛ Awurade sɛ, “Deɛ meyɛeɛ yi enti, mayɛ bɔne kɛseɛ. Enti, Awurade, mesrɛ wo, yi saa afɔbuo yi firi wo ɔsomfoɔ so. Mayɛ nkwaseadeɛ.”

11 Awo mu kiro ekigambo kya Mukama Katonda ne kijjira nnabbi Gaadi, omulabi wa Dawudi nti,

Adeɛ kyeeɛ no, Awurade asɛm baa odiyifoɔ Gad a ɔyɛ Dawid ɔdehunufoɔ nkyɛn sɛ:

12 “Genda otegeeze Dawudi nti, ‘Bw’atyo bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda nti: ku bino ebisatu londawo ekimu kye nnaakukola.’”

“Kɔka kyerɛ Dawid sɛ, Sɛdeɛ Awurade seɛ nie: ‘Mede nsɛm mmiɛnsa reto wʼanim. Yi mu baako na mɛyɛ.’”

13 Gaadi n’agenda eri Dawudi n’amugamba nti, “Ndireeta enjala mu nsi okumala emyaka musanvu? Oba, ndikuddusa mu maaso g’abalabe bo okumala emyezi esatu, nga bakugoba? Oba, walibaawo ennaku ssatu eza kawumpuli mu nsi yo? Kirowoozeeko, ontegeeze ky’onoosalawo, nzizeeyo obubaka eri oyo antumye.”

Enti, Gad kɔɔ Dawid nkyɛn kɔbisaa no sɛ, “Ɔkɔm mmra wʼasase yi so mfeɛ mmiɛnsa anaa? Anaa, atamfoɔ a wɔgu wo so no wobɛdwane wɔn abosome mmiɛnsa? Anaa, ɔyaredɔm mmra wo ɔman yi mu nnansa? Enti afei, dwene ho yie, na ma menhunu mmuaeɛ a memfa nkɔma Awurade.”

14 Awo Dawudi n’agamba Gaadi nti, “Nsobeddwa nnyo; wakiri tugwe mu mukono gwa Mukama Katonda, kubanga okusaasira kwe kungi; okusinga okugwa mu mikono gy’abantu.”

Dawid ka kyerɛɛ Gad sɛ, “Yɛwɔ ahohiahia mu. Momma yɛmfa yɛn ho nhyɛ Awurade nsa, ɛfiri sɛ, nʼadɔeɛ dɔɔso; nanso, mma me nkɔtɔ nnipa nsam.”

15 Awo Mukama Katonda n’aweereza kawumpuli ku Isirayiri okuva ku makya okwo okumala ekiseera Mukama kye yateekateeka, abantu emitwalo musanvu ne bafa okuva mu bitundu ebya Ddaani okutuuka e Beeruseba.

Enti, Awurade too ɔyaredɔm guu Israel so anɔpa no ma ɛdii nnansa. Na nnipa ɔpeduɔson firii Dan kɔsi Beer-Seba wuwuiɛ.

16 Malayika bwe yagolola omukono gwe eri Yerusaalemi okukizikiriza, Mukama ne yejjusa olw’ekikolwa ekyo, n’agamba malayika eyabonereza abantu nti, “Kinaamala, toyoongera nate.” Olwo malayika wa Mukama Katonda yali atuuse ku gguuliro lya Alawuna Omuyebusi.

Ɛberɛ a ɔbɔfoɔ no reyɛ ahoboa akɔsɛe Yerusalem no, Awurade nuu ne ho wɔ asɛm no ho, na ɔka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Ɛyɛ! Gyae.” Saa ɛberɛ no na Awurade ɔbɔfoɔ no aduru Yebusini Arauna ayuporobea hɔ.

17 Awo Dawudi bwe yalaba malayika wa Mukama Katonda eyabonereza abantu, n’ayogera nti, “Nze nnyonoonye era nze nkoze eby’ekyejo, naye endiga zino, tezirina kye zikoze. Nkwegayiridde, omukono gwo ka gubonereze nze n’ennyumba ya kitange.”

Ɛberɛ a Dawid hunuu ɔbɔfoɔ no, ɔka kyerɛɛ Awurade sɛ, “Me na mayɛ bɔne. Yeinom deɛ wɔnnim ho hwee, ɛdeɛn na wɔayɛ? Ma wo ɔbɔfoɔ nsɛe me ne me fiefoɔ.”

18 Ku lunaku olwo Gaadi n’agenda eri Dawudi n’amugamba nti, “Yambuka ozimbire Mukama Katonda ekyoto ku gguuliro lya Alawuna Omuyebusi.”

Ɛda no, Gad kɔɔ Dawid nkyɛn kɔka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Kɔ na kɔsi afɔrebukyia ma Awurade wɔ Yebusini Arauna ayuporobea hɔ.”

19 Awo Dawudi n’agondera ebiragiro bya Mukama Katonda bye yayisa mu Gaadi, n’ayambuka ku gguuliro.

Na Dawid kɔyɛɛ deɛ Awurade hyɛɛ no sɛ ɔnyɛ no.

20 Alawuna n’alengera kabaka n’abasajja be nga bajja gy’ali, n’afuluma n’avuunama mu maaso ga kabaka, ne yeeyala wansi.

Ɛberɛ a Arauna hunuu sɛ ɔhene ne ne mmarima reba no, ɔpueeɛ, bɛkotoo ɔhene, de nʼanim butuu fam.

21 Alawuna n’abuuza nti, “Kiki ekireese mukama wange kabaka eri omuddu we?” Dawudi n’addamu nti, “Nzize okugula egguuliro lyo, nzimbire Mukama ekyoto, kawumpuli aleke okubuna mu bantu.”

Arauna bisaa sɛ, “Adɛn enti na woaba, me wura?” Dawid buaa sɛ, “Merebɛtɔ ayuporobea hɔ, na masi afɔrebukyia wɔ hɔ ama Awurade, sɛdeɛ Awurade bɛma ɔyaredɔm no agyae.”

22 Alawuna n’agamba Dawudi nti, “Mukama wange kabaka atwale kyonna ky’anaasiima akiweeyo. Ente ziizo ez’ekiweebwayo ekyokebwa, n’ebintu ebiwuula n’ebikoligo by’ente byonna mbiwaddeyo okuba enku.

Arauna ka kyerɛɛ Dawid sɛ, “Me wura fa na fayɛ deɛ wopɛ. Nantwie a wɔde bɛbɔ ɔhyeɛ afɔdeɛ nie. Wobɛtumi de ayuporeeɛ nnua ne nantwie mpamho nnua no ayɛ anyina wɔ afɔrebukyia no so.

23 Ebyo byonna, Alawuna abiwaddeyo eri kabaka.” Alawuna n’ayongerako nti, “Olabe ekisa mu maaso ga Mukama Katonda wo.”

Mede ne nyinaa bɛma wo, na mesrɛ sɛ, Awurade, wo Onyankopɔn nnye afɔdeɛ yi.”

24 Naye kabaka n’agamba Alawuna nti, “Nedda, nzija kulisasulira. Sijja kuwaayo ssaddaaka ez’ebiweebwayo ebyokebwa eri Mukama Katonda wange, nga sisasulidde muwendo.” Awo Dawudi n’asasulira egguuliro n’ente, omuwendo ogw’enkana effeeza, gulaamu lukaaga.

Na ɔhene no buaa Arauna sɛ, “Dabi, mepɛ sɛ mɛtɔ, na merentumi mmɔ ɔhyeɛ afɔdeɛ mma Awurade, me Onyankopɔn, a mammɔ ho ka biara.” Enti, Dawid tuaa dwetɛ bɛyɛ gram ahanum aduɔson enum de tɔɔ ayuporobea ne nantwie no.

25 Dawudi n’azimbira Mukama ekyoto n’awaayo ebiweebwayo ebyokebwa n’ebiweebwayo olw’emirembe. Olwo Mukama Katonda n’ayanukula okusaba kwe ku lw’ensi, kawumpuli n’ava ku Isirayiri.

Dawid sii afɔrebukyia wɔ hɔ maa Awurade, na ɔbɔɔ ɔhyeɛ afɔdeɛ ne asomdwoeɛ afɔdeɛ hɔ. Na Awurade tiee ne mpaeɛbɔ maa ɔyaredɔm no gyaee.
