1 Awo ne wabangawo entalo wakati w’ennyumba ya Sawulo n’ennyumba ya Dawudi okumala ebbanga ddene. Dawudi n’akulaakulana, n’aba w’amaanyi, naye ennyumba ya Sawulo ne yeeyongeranga okunafuwa.

Ɔko a ɛbɛtɔɔ wɔn a wɔwɔ Saulo afa ne wɔn a wɔwɔ Dawid afa no kyɛe yiye, na ne mfiase ni. Bere a Dawid adedi renya ahoɔden no na Saulo adedi no resɛe.

2 Dawudi n’azaalirwa abaana aboobulenzi e Kebbulooni. Omuggulanda yali Amunoni eyazaalibwa Akinoamu Omuyezuleeri,

Eyinom ne Dawid mmabarima a wɔwoo wɔn wɔ Hebron: Nʼabakan no din de Amnon a ɔyɛ Ahinoam a ofi Yesreel no babarima.

Nea ɔto so anan no din de Adoniya a ɔyɛ Hagit babarima; nea ɔto so anum no din de Sefatia a ɔyɛ Abital babarima.

Na nea ɔto so asia no din de Yitream a ɔyɛ Dawid yere Egla babarima. Wɔwoo saa mma yi maa Dawid wɔ Hebron.

6 Entalo n’enkaayana nga zikyagenda mu maaso wakati w’ennyumba ya Sawulo n’ennyumba ya Dawudi, Abuneeri n’anyweza ekifo kye mu nnyumba ya Sawulo.

Bere a na ɔko a ɛda Saulo fi ne Dawid fi no gu so no, na Abner agye din ama nʼankasa ne ho wɔ Saulo fi.

7 Sawulo yalina omuzaana erinnya lye Lizupa muwala wa Aya. Isubosesi n’abuuza Abuneeri nti, “Lwaki weetaba n’omuzaana wa kitange?”

Na Saulo wɔ mpena bi a wɔfrɛ no Rispa, a ɔyɛ Aia babea. Na Is-Boset bisaa Abner se, “Adɛn nti na wo ne mʼagya mpena dae?”

8 Awo Abuneeri n’asunguwala nnyo olw’ekigambo Isubosesi kye yamugamba, n’amuddamu nti, “Nze mutwe gw’embwa ya Yuda? Mbadde wa kisa eri ennyumba ya kitaawo Sawulo, n’eri baganda be, ne mikwano gye, ne sibawaayo mu mukono gwa Dawudi. Kaakano onteekako omusango olw’omukazi oyo.

Abner bo fuw yiye kae se, “Meyɛ akraman sodifo wɔ Yuda na wɔadwoodwoo me saa? Nea mayɛ ama wo ne wʼagya, a manyi mo amma Dawid no, mʼayeyi ne sɛ, mode ɔbea yi ho asɛm rekyekyere me?

9 Katonda akole Abuneeri bw’atyo n’okukirawo, bwe siituukirize ekyo Mukama kye yalayirira Dawudi,

Sɛ mammoa Dawid amma ne nsa anka nea Awurade hyɛɛ ho bɔ no a, Onyankopɔn ne me nni no ɔnwene so.

10 okuggya obwakabaka ku nnyumba ya Sawulo, n’okunyweza entebe ey’obwakabaka eya Dawudi okufuga Isirayiri ne Yuda okuva ku Ddaani okutuuka e Beeruseba.”

Mede Saulo ahenni bɛkɔ akɔma Dawid na matim Dawid ahengua ase wɔ Israel ne Yuda so afi Dan akosi Beer-Seba.”

11 Isubosesi n’ataŋŋaanga kwanukula Abuneeri kigambo kirala, olw’okumutya.

Esiane sɛ na Is-Boset suro Abner nti, wantumi ankasa bio.

12 Awo Abuneeri n’atumira Dawudi ababaka okumugamba nti, “Ensi y’ani? Kola endagaano nange, laba nnaafuula Isirayiri yonna okuba eyiyo.”

Afei, Abner tuu abɔfo kɔɔ Dawid nkyɛn kɔka kyerɛɛ no se, “Ma yɛnyɛ nhyehyɛe na mɛboa ama yɛadan Israelman mu no nyinaa ama wo.”

13 Dawudi n’ayogera nti, “Kirungi. Nzija okukola endagaano naawe. Naye ekintu kimu kye nkusaba. Tojja mu maaso gange okuggyako ng’ojja ne Mikali muwala wa Sawulo, ng’ojja okundaba.”

Dawid buae se, “Ɛyɛ asɛm papa, nanso me ne wo renyɛ saa nhyehyɛe no gye sɛ, sɛ woreba a, wode me yere Mikal a ɔyɛ Saulo babea no brɛ me.”

14 Awo Dawudi n’atumira Isubosesi mutabani wa Sawulo ababaka ng’agamba nti, “Mpa mukyala wange Mikali gwe nayogereza n’ebikuta ekikumi eby’Abafirisuuti.”

Enti, Dawid soma ma wɔkɔbɔɔ Saulo babarima Is-Boset amanneɛ se, “Ma me nsa nka me yere Mikal, efisɛ mede Filistifo ɔha nkwa na ɛtɔɔ no.”

15 Amangwago Isubosesi n’alagira, bamuggye ku bba Palutiyeri mutabani wa Layisi.

Enti Is-Boset gyee Mikal fii ne kunu Paltiel a ɔyɛ Lais babarima no nsam.

16 Naye bba we n’abagoberera, nga bw’akaaba okutuukira ddala, e Bakulimu. Abuneeri n’amugamba nti, “Ddayo eka. N’addayo.”

Na Paltiel de osu dii ɔbea no akyi koduu Bahurim. Na Abner ka kyerɛɛ no se, “San kɔ fie.” Na Paltiel san kɔɔ fie.

17 Abuneeri n’ateesa n’abakadde ba Isirayiri, n’abagamba nti, “Mumaze ebbanga nga mwagala okufuula Dawudi kabaka wammwe.

Na Abner ne Israel ntuanofo adidi nkɔmmɔ. Ɔka kyerɛɛ wɔn se, “Mmere kakra a atwam no, na mopɛ sɛ musi Dawid ɔhene.

18 Kaakano mukituukirize, kubanga Mukama yasuubiza Dawudi nti, ‘Ndirokola abantu bange Isirayiri okuva mu mukono gw’Abafirisuuti ne mu mukono gw’abalabe baabwe bonna, nga nkozesa omuddu wange Dawudi.’”

Bere no ni. Efisɛ Awurade aka se, ‘Mayi Dawid sɛ onnye me nkurɔfo mfi Filistifo ne wɔn atamfo nyinaa nsam.’”

19 Abuneeri n’agenda n’eri Ababenyamini n’ayogera nabo, n’oluvannyuma n’agenda n’ategeeza Dawudi e Kebbulooni, ebyo byonna Isirayiri n’ennyumba ya Benyamini bye baasalawo okukola.

Abner san ne Benyamin abusua mu ntuanofo kasae. Afei, ɔkɔɔ Hebron kɔbɔɔ Dawid amanneɛ se, Israel nyinaa ne Benyamin taa wʼakyi.

20 Awo Abuneeri n’agenda n’abasajja amakumi abiri ewa Dawudi e Kebbulooni, Dawudi n’abategekera embaga nnene.

Bere a Abner ne ne mmarima aduonu baa Hebron no, Dawid too wɔn pon kɛse.

21 Abuneeri n’agamba Dawudi nti, “Ka ŋŋenderewo mukama wange Kabaka, nkuŋŋaanye Isirayiri yenna, bakole endagaano naawe, obafuge ng’omutima gwo bwe gunaasiima.” Awo Dawudi n’asindika Abuneeri agende, n’agenda mirembe.

Na Abner ka kyerɛɛ Dawid se, “Ma menkɔ na menkɔfrɛ Israel nnipa nyinaa na wɔmmra wʼafa. Wɔne wo bɛyɛ apam, na wɔasi wo hene. Na ɛbɛma woadi biribiara a wo koma pɛ so.” Enti Dawid maa Abner kɔɔ dwoodwoo.

22 Awo abasajja ba Dawudi ne bakomawo ne Yowaabu, nga baleese omunyago munene ddala. Naye we baakomerawo nga Abuneeri takyali ne Dawudi e Kebbulooni, kubanga yali amusiibudde agende mirembe.

Abner kɔe ara pɛ, Yoab ne Dawid asraafo no bi fi ɔsa mu bae a wokura asade bebree.

23 Yowaabu n’eggye lyonna bwe baatuuka, Yowaabu n’ategeezebwa nga Abuneeri mutabani wa Neeri bwe yazze eri kabaka, naye kabaka n’amusiibula, n’agenda mirembe.

Bere a wɔka kyerɛɛ Yoab se Abner baa hɔ nkyɛe koraa, na ɔbɛsraa ɔhene, ama ɔhene ama no kɔ asomdwoe mu no,

24 Awo Yowaabu n’agenda eri kabaka n’amugamba nti, “Wakoze ki ekyo, okuleka Abuneeri n’agenda?

Yoab yɛɛ ntɛm kohuu ɔhene bisaa no se, “Dɛn na woayɛ yi? Abner kɔ a womaa no kɔe yi, wokyerɛ dɛn?

25 Okimanyi nga Abuneeri mutabani wa Neeri, yazze okukubuzaabuza, n’okuketta ennyingira yo n’enfuluma yo, ne byonna by’okola?”

Wunim pefee sɛ, ɔbaa wo so sɛ ɔkwansrafo, bɛhwehwɛɛ nea woreyɛ nyinaa mu ana?”

26 Yowaabu n’ava mu maaso ga Dawudi, n’atuma ababaka okugoberera Abuneeri, era ne bamukomyawo okuva ku luzzi lwa Siira, naye Dawudi n’atakimanya.

Ɛhɔ ara, Yoab fi Dawid nkyɛn, na ɔsomaa abɔfo sɛ wontiw Abner. Wɔkɔtoo no Sira ɔtare ho, twee no de no bae. Nanso na Dawid nnim ho hwee.

27 Awo Abuneeri bwe yakomawo e Kebbulooni, Yowaabu n’amutwala ku bbali w’omulyango, ne yeefuula ng’ayogera naye mu kyama, n’amufumita mu lubuto n’afa. Ekyo Yowaabu y’akikola okumusasula olw’omusaayi gwa Asakeri muganda we.

Afei, Abner san kɔɔ Hebron no, Yoab frɛɛ no kɔɔ nkyɛn kosii ɔpon ano te sɛ nea ɔrekɔka kokoamsɛm akyerɛ no no. Na ɛhɔ no na esiane sɛ ɔpɛ sɛ ɔtɔ ne nuabarima Asahel so were no nti, Yoab wɔɔ Abner yafunu mu afoa ma owui.

28 Oluvannyuma Dawudi bwe yakiwulira, n’ayogera nti, “Nze n’obwakabaka bwange tetulivunaanibwa ennaku zonna mu maaso ga Mukama olw’omusaayi gwa Abuneeri mutabani wa Neeri.

Akyiri no a Dawid tee asɛm no, ɔkae se, “Me ne mʼaheman nnim saa asɛm a ɛfa Abner yi ho hwee wɔ Awurade anim.

29 Omusaayi gwe gubeerenga ku mutwe gwa Yowaabu ne ku nnyumba ya kitaawe, era mu nnyumba ya Yowaabu mulemenga okubulamu omuziku newaakubadde omugenge, newaakubadde omulema newaakubadde alifa n’ekitala, newaakubadde alibulwa emmere.”

Ne mogya ngu Yoab ne nʼagya fi so! Yoab fi de, awo ntoatoaso mu nyinaa, obi a watutu akuru anaa ɔyare kwata, nea ɔnam pema ho nantew anaa nea owu afoa ano ne nea ɔsrɛsrɛ aduan rempa hɔ da.”

30 Yowaabu ne Abisaayi muganda we ne batta Abuneeri kubanga yatta muganda waabwe Asakeri mu lutalo e Gibyoni.

Yoab ne ne nuabarima Abisai kum Abner, efisɛ Abner kum wɔn nuabarima Asahel wɔ akono wɔ Gibeon.

31 Awo Dawudi n’agamba Yowaabu n’abantu bonna abaali naye nti, “Mwambale ebibukutu, mukungubagire mu maaso ga Abuneeri.” Kabaka Dawudi yennyini n’atambulira emabega w’essanduuko omwali omulambo.

Na Dawid ka kyerɛɛ Yoab ne nnipa a wɔka ne ho no nyinaa se, “Munsunsuan mo ntama mu, na mumfura atweaatam. Muntwa Abner ho agyaadwo.” Na ɔhene Dawid ankasa dii santen a wɔato no akyi, kɔɔ ɔda no so.

32 Abuneeri n’aziikibwa e Kebbulooni, kabaka n’akaaba n’eddoboozi ddene awamu n’abantu bonna ku ntaana ya Abuneeri.

Wosiee Abner wɔ Hebron, na ɔhene Dawid ne nnipa no nyinaa suu wɔ ne da no ho.

33 Kabaka n’akungubagira Abuneeri, ng’agamba nti, “Abuneeri teyandifudde ng’omusirusiru bw’afa.

Afei, ɔhene too saa kwadwom yi maa Abner: “Ɛsɛ sɛ Abner wu sɛnea nkwaseafo wu ana?

34 Emikono gyo tegyasibibwa, so n’ebigere byo tebyateekebwa mu masamba. Ng’omuntu bw’agwa mu maaso g’abo abatali batuukirivu, bwe wagwa bw’otyo.” Abantu bonna ne bamukungubagira.

Wɔankyekyere wo nsa; wɔangu wo nan nkɔnsɔnkɔnsɔn. Dabi, wodii wo awu; amumɔyɛfo atirimpɔw so ade.” Nnipa no nyinaa suu Abner bio.

35 Oluvannyuma bonna ne bagezaako okuwaliriza Dawudi alye ku mmere ng’obudde bukyalaba, naye n’alayira ng’agamba nti, “Katonda ankole bw’atyo n’okukirawo, bwe nnaakomba ku mmere oba ku kintu kyonna, okutuusa enjuba ng’emaze okugwa.”

Da a wɔreyɛ ayi no, Dawid annidi da mu no nyinaa, maa afei, obiara srɛɛ no se onnidi. Nanso na Dawid aka ntam se, “Sɛ mididi ansa na owia akɔtɔ a, Onyankopɔn nkum me.”

36 Awo abantu bonna ne bakitegeera era ne kibasanyusa. Byonna kabaka bye yakolanga ne bisiimibwanga abantu.

Eyi sɔɔ nnipa no ani yiye. Nokware, biribiara a ɔhene no yɛe no sɔɔ ɔmanfo no ani.

37 Era ku lunaku olwo abantu bonna ne Isirayiri yenna ne bategeera nga kabaka teyasiima kuttibwa kwa Abuneeri mutabani wa Neeri.

Eyi maa obiara a ɔte Yuda ne Israel no huu sɛ, ɛnyɛ ɔhene Dawid na okum Abner.

38 Awo kabaka n’agamba abantu be nti, “Temumanyi nga leero mu Isirayiri mufuddemu omukungu era omusajja omuzira?

Na ɔhene Dawid bisaa ɔmanfo no se, “Munhu sɛ ɔkannifo kɛse ne onipa kɛse atɔ fam nnɛ wɔ Israel ana?

39 Era leero, newaakubadde nga nze kabaka eyafukibwako amafuta, ndimunafu olw’abaana ba Zeruyiya abampitiriddeko obukakanyavu. Mukama asasule bw’atyo omukozi w’ebibi olw’ebikolwa bye!”

Na ɛwɔ mu sɛ me ne ɔhene a wɔasra no de, nanso Seruia mmabarima Yoab ne Abisai de, wɔyɛ den dodo ma me sɛ metumi aka wɔn ahyɛ. Ɛno nti, Awurade ntua saa mmarima amumɔyɛfo yi so ka wɔ wɔn amumɔyɛsɛm ho.”
