1 Oluvannyuma lw’okufa kwa Sawulo, Dawudi n’agenda n’abeera e Zikulagi n’amalayo ennaku bbiri, ng’amaze okusaanyaawo Abamaleki.
Atamwalira Sauli, Davide anabwerako kumene anakagonjetsa Aamaleki ndipo anakakhala ku Zikilagi masiku awiri.
2 Awo olwatuuka ku lunaku olwokusatu, ne wajja omusajja ng’ava mu lusiisira lwa Sawulo, ng’ayuzizza ebyambalo bye, nga ne mu mutwe gwe mulimu enfuufu. Bwe yatuuka awali Dawudi, n’avuunama ng’amuwa ekitiibwa.
Pa tsiku lachitatu munthu wina wochokera ku msasa wa Sauli anafika, zovala zake zitangʼambika ndiponso anali atathira dothi pamutu pake. Atafika kwa Davide, anadzigwetsa pansi, kupereka ulemu kwa Davideyo.
3 Dawudi n’amubuuza nti, “Ova wa?” N’amuddamu nti, “Ndi kaawonawo okuva mu lusiisira lwa Isirayiri.”
Davide anamufunsa iye kuti, “Kodi iwe wachokera kuti?” Iye anayankha kuti, “Ine ndathawa ku misasa ya Aisraeli.”
4 Dawudi n’ayogera nti, “Ntegeeza ebyabaddewo.” N’ayogera nti, “Abantu badduse mu lutalo, era bangi ku bo bafudde. Sawulo ne Yonasaani mutabani we nabo bafudde.”
Davide anafunsa, “Tandiwuza, chachitika ndi chiyani?” Iye anati, “Anthu athawa ku nkhondo ndipo ambiri aphedwa. Sauli ndi mwana wake Yonatani aphedwa.”
5 Awo Dawudi n’agamba omuvubuka eyamutegeeza amawulire ago nti, “Otegedde otya nga Sawulo ne mutabani we Yonasaani nabo bafudde?”
Ndipo Davide anati kwa mnyamata amene anabweretsa nkhaniyi, “Ukudziwa bwanji kuti Sauli ndi mwana wake Yonatani afa?”
6 Omuvubuka n’amugamba nti, “Bwe nnali awo ku lusozi Girubowa, ne ndaba Sawulo nga yeesigamye ku ffumu lye era n’amagaali n’abeebagala embalaasi eby’omulabe nga bamucocca.
Mnyamatayo anati, “Zinangochitika kuti ndinali pa phiri la Gilibowa, ndipo Sauli anali komweko ataweramira pa mkondo wake, pamodzi ndi magaleta ndi okwera ake atamuyandikira.
7 Awo bwe yakyusa amaaso ge n’andaba, n’ankowoola, ne muddamu nti, ‘Nkukolere ki?’
Pamene anatembenuka ndi kundiona ine, iye anandiyitana, ndipo ndinati, ‘Kodi ndichite chiyani?’”
8 “N’ambuuza nti, ‘Ggwe ani?’ “Ne muddamu nti, ‘Ndi Mwamaleki.’
Iye anandifunsa, “Iwe ndiwe yani?” Ine ndinayankha kuti, “Ndine Mwamaleki.”
9 “N’alyoka aŋŋamba nti, ‘Nnyimirirako onzite! Ndi mu masaŋŋanzira ag’okufa newaakubadde nga ndabika ng’akyalimu obulamu.’
“Kenaka iye anati kwa ine, ‘Bwera pafupi ndipo undiphe! Ndikumva ululu kwambiri, koma ndikanali ndi moyo!’
10 “Kyennava muyimirirako ne mutta, kubanga n’ategeera nga takyalamye. Ne ntwala engule eyali ku mutwe gwe n’ekikomo ekyali ku mukono gwe, era biibino mbireetedde mukama wange.”
“Kotero ndinabwera pafupi ndi kumupha, chifukwa ndinadziwa kuti mmene anagweramo sakanakhalanso ndi moyo. Ndipo ndatenga chipewa chaufumu chimene chinali pamutu pake ndi khoza la pa dzanja lake ndipo ndazibweretsa kwa inu mbuye wanga.”
11 Awo Dawudi n’abasajja bonna be yali nabo, ne bayuza ebyambalo byabwe.
Apo Davide ndi anthu onse amene anali nawo anangʼamba zovala zawo.
12 Ne bakaaba, ne bakungubaga ne basiiba okutuusa akawungeezi ku lwa Sawulo ne Yonasaani mutabani we; ne ku lw’eggye lya Mukama, ne ku lw’ennyumba ya Isirayiri; kubanga bonna baali bafudde n’ekitala.
Iwo analira maliro ndi kusala zakudya mpaka madzulo chifukwa cha Sauli ndi mwana wake Yonatani, komanso chifukwa cha gulu la ankhondo la Yehova ndi nyumba ya Israeli, chifukwa anaphedwa ndi lupanga.
13 Awo Dawudi n’agamba omuvubuka eyamutegeeza amawulire ago nti, “Ova wa?” N’addamu nti, “Ndi mwana wa munnaggwanga, Omwameleki.”
Davide anati kwa mnyamata amene anabweretsa uthengawo, “Iwe umachokera kuti?” Iye anayankha kuti, “Ine ndine mwana wa mlendo Mwamaleki.”
14 Dawudi n’amugamba nti, “Lwaki tewatya kuzikiriza omuntu Mukama gwe yafukako amafuta?”
Davide anamufunsanso kuti, “Nʼchifukwa chiyani sunaope kukweza dzanja lako ndi kupha wodzozedwa wa Yehova?”
15 Awo Dawudi n’ayita omu ku basajja be, n’amugamba nti, “Mutte.” N’amufumita n’amutta.
Kenaka Davide anayitana mmodzi mwa anyamata ake ndipo anati, “Pita ukamukanthe!” Kotero iye anapita kukamukantha, ndipo mnyamata uja anafa.
16 Dawudi n’amugamba nti, “Omusaayi gwo gubeere ku mutwe gwo, kubanga akamwa ko ye mujulirwa ng’oyogera nti, ‘Nnatta oyo Mukama gwe yafukako amafuta.’”
Pakuti Davide anali atanena kwa iye kuti, “Iwe wadzipha wekha. Pakamwa pako pakunena zokutsutsa wekha, pamene unanena kuti, ‘Ine ndapha wodzozedwa wa Yehova.’”
17 Dawudi n’akungubagira Sawulo ne Yonasaani mutabani we,
Davide anayimba nyimbo iyi ya maliro, kulira Sauli ndi mwana wake Yonatani.
18 n’alagira abantu ba Isirayiri bayigirizibwe oluyimba olw’omutego olw’okukungubaga olwawandiikibwa mu kitabo kya Yasali. Olugamba nti,
Ndipo analamula kuti anthu a ku Yuda aphunzitsidwe nyimbo ya maliroyi imene yalembedwa mʼbuku la Yasari:
19 “Ekitiibwa kyo, ayi Isirayiri, kifiiridde ku nsozi zo! Ab’amaanyi nga bagudde!
“Ulemerero wako iwe Israeli, wagona utaphedwa ku zitunda. Taonani amphamvu agwa kumeneko!
20 “Temukyogeranga mu Gaasi, temukyatuliranga mu nguudo za Asukulooni, abawala b’Abafirisuuti baleme okusanyuka, abawala b’abatali bakomole baleme okujaguza.
“Musakanene zimenezi ku Gati, musazilengeze ku misewu ya ku Asikeloni, kuti ana aakazi a Afilisti angasangalale, ana aakazi a osachita mdulidwe angakondwere.
21 “Mmwe ensozi za Girubowa, muleme okugwibwako omusulo newaakubadde enkuba, newaakubadde ennimiro okumeramu ensigo. Kubanga eyo engabo ey’ab’amaanyi gye yanyoomerwa n’engabo ya Sawulo, gye yafuukira ng’etafukibwangako mafuta.
“Inu mapiri a ku Gilibowa, musakhalenso ndi mame kapena mvula, kapena minda yobereka zopereka za ufa. Pakuti kumeneko chishango cha munthu wamphamvu chinadetsedwa, chishango cha Sauli sanachipakenso mafuta.
22 Omutego gwa Yonasaani tegwaddanga mabega n’ekitala kya Sawulo tekyaddanga nga kikalu, olw’okubuna omusaayi gw’abattibwanga, n’amasavu g’ab’amaanyi.
“Pa magazi a ophedwa, pa mnofu wa amphamvu, uta wa Yonatani sunabwerere, lupanga la Sauli silinabwere chabe.
23 “Sawulo ne Yonasaani, mu bulamu bwabwe baali baagalwa nnyo era baali baakisa, ne mu kufa tebaayawukana. Baali bangu okusinga empungu, era baali b’amaanyi n’okusinga empologoma.
“Sauli ndi Yonatani, pa moyo wawo anali okondedwa ndi okoma mtima, ndipo pa imfa yawo sanasiyanitsidwe. Iwo anali ndi liwiro loposa ziwombankhanga, anali ndi mphamvu zoposa mkango.
24 “Mmwe abawala ba Isirayiri, mukaabire Sawulo, eyabambaza engoye ezinekaaneka ez’okwesiima, eyabambaza ebyambalo ebyatonebwa ne zaabu.
“Inu ana aakazi a Israeli, mulireni Sauli, amene anakuvekani zovala zofiira ndi zofewa, amene anakometsera zovala zanu ndi zokometsera zagolide.
25 “Ab’amaanyi nga bagudde wakati mu lutalo! Yonasaani attiddwa ku nsozi zammwe.
“Taonani amphamvu agwa ku nkhondo! Yonatani wagona ataphedwa ku zitunda.
26 Nnumwa nnyo ku lwa muganda wange Yonasaani, kubanga wali mukwano gwange ddala. Okwagala kwe wanjagala kwali kwa kitalo, nga kwa kitalo n’okusinga okw’abakyala.
Ine ndikuvutika mumtima chifukwa cha iwe mʼbale wanga Yonatani, unali wokondedwa kwambiri kwa ine. Chikondi chako pa ine chinali chopambana, chopambana kuposa chikondi cha akazi.
27 “Ab’amaanyi nga bagudde, n’ebyokulwanyisa nga bizikiridde!”
“Taonani amphamvu agwa! Zida zankhondo zawonongeka!”
