2 USamuyeli 21
1 Ekubuseni kukaDavida kwaba lendlala iminyaka emithathu ilandelana; ngakho uDavida wabuza uThixo. UThixo wathi, “Kungenxa kaSawuli lendlu yakhe enindwe ngegazi; kungenxa yokuthi yena wabulala amaGibhiyoni.”
Jabana Daawit keessa beelli waggaa sadii walitti aansee buʼe; kanaafuu Daawit fuula Waaqayyoo barbaade. Waaqayyos, “Sababii Saaʼol Gibeʼoonota ajjeeseef isaa fi mana isaa irra yakka dhiigaatu jira” jedhe.
2 Inkosi yabiza amaGibhiyoni yakhuluma lawo. (AbaseGibhiyoni babengasiyo ngxenye ka-Israyeli kodwa babengabasalayo bama-Amori, abako-Israyeli babefunge ukubayekela, kodwa uSawuli ngenxa yokutshisekela kwakhe u-Israyeli loJuda wafuna ukubaqeda du.)
Mootichis Gibeʼoonota walitti qabee isaan wajjin haasaʼe. Gibeʼoononni hambaa Amoorotaa turan malee ilmaan Israaʼelootaa miti; Israaʼeloonni akka isaan eegan kakuu seenaniif; Saaʼol garuu hinaaffaa Israaʼelii fi Yihuudaaf qabuun Gibeʼoonota balleessuu barbaadee ture.
3 UDavida wabuza amaGibhiyoni wathi, “Kuyini engingalenzela khona na? Ngingakwenza njani ukubuyisana ukuze libusise ilifa likaThixo na?”
Daawitis, “Ani maalin isiniif godha? Akka isin dhaala Waaqayyoo eebbiftaniif ani akkamittin araara buusuu dandaʼa?” jedhee Gibeʼoonota gaafate.
4 AmaGibhiyoni amphendula athi, “Kasilalo ilungelo lokufuna isiliva loba igolide kuSawuli kumbe kwabendlu yakhe, lelungelo lokubulala umuntu ko-Israyeli kasilalo.” UDavida wabuza wathi, “Pho lifuna ukuthi ngilenzeleni?”
Gibeʼoononni immoo, “Nu Saaʼol irraa meetii yookaan warqee gaafachuuf mirga hin qabnu; yookaan akka namni tokko iyyuu Israaʼel keessatti duʼu gochuuf nu mirga qabnaa?” jedhanii deebisaniif. Daawitis, “Akka ani maal isiniif godhu barbaaddu?” jedhee gaafate.
5 Bayiphendula inkosi bathi, “Umuntu owasichithayo waceba okubi ngathi saze satshabalala njalo kasaze saba lendawo loba ngaphi ko-Israyeli,
Isaanis akkana jedhanii mootichaaf deebii kennan; “Nama akka nu diigamnuu fi akka nu Israaʼel keessattis iddoo tokko illee hin arganne nu godhe sana,
6 kasinikwe abenzalo yakhe besilisa abayisikhombisa ukuba babulawe balengiswe phambi kukaThixo eGibhiya kaSawuli, okhethiweyo kaThixo.” Ngakho inkosi yathi, “Ngizalinika bona.”
sanyii isaa keessaa dhiirri torba nuuf haa kennaman; nus dhaqnee biyya Saaʼol namicha Waaqayyo filate sanaa, Gibeʼaatti fuula Waaqayyoo duratti isaan fannifnaa.” Kanaafuu mootichi, “Tole isiniifin kenna” jedhe.
7 Kodwa uMefibhoshethi indodana kaJonathani, indodana kaSawuli, inkosi yamtshiya ngenxa yesifungo phambi kukaThixo phakathi kukaDavida loJonathani indodana kaSawuli.
Mootichi garuu sababii kakuu Waaqayyoo kan Daawitii fi Yoonaataan ilma Saaʼol gidduutti godhame sanaatiif jedhee Mefiibooshet ilma Yoonaataan ilma Saaʼol duʼa jalaa baase.
8 Kodwa inkosi yathatha u-Arimoni loMefibhoshethi amadodana amabili endodakazi ka-Ayiya uRizipha, ayemzale loSawuli, kanye lamadodana amahlanu endodakazi kaSawuli uMerabi, ayewazale lo-Adiriyeli indodana kaBhazilayi waseMehola.
Mootichis Armoonii fi Mefiibooshet ilmaan Riixiphaan intalli Ayyaa Saaʼoliif deesse lamaanii fi ilmaan Meerob intalli Saaʼol Adriiʼeel ilma Barzilaay namicha gosa Mehoolaatiif deesse shanan geesse.
9 Yabanikeza kumaGibhiyoni, ababulala abachaya eqaqeni phambi kukaThixo. Bonke beyisikhombisa bafela ndawonye; babulawa ngezinsuku zakuqala zokuvuna, ukuvunwa kwebhali kuqalisa nje.
Innis dabarsee Gibeʼoonotatti isaan kenne. Jarris isaan ajjeesanii gaara gubbaatti fuula Waaqayyoo duratti isaan fannisan. Torbaan isaanii iyyuu walumaan dhuman; isaanis akkuma garbuun haamamuu jalqabeen yeroo midhaan haamamutti guyyoota jalqabaatti ajjeefaman.
10 URizipha indodakazi ka-Ayiya wathatha isaka wazendlalela lona edwaleni. Kusukela ekuqaliseni kokuvuna izulu laze lana livela emazulwini linetha izidumbu, kavumelanga izinyoni zasemoyeni ukuba zizithinte emini loba izinyamazana zeganga ebusuku.
Riixiphaan intalli Ayyaa sun wayyaa gaddaa fudhattee kattaa irra afatte. Isheenis yeroo midhaan itti haamamuu jalqabdee hamma bokkaan reeffa jara ajjeefamanii sanatti samiidhaa roobutti akka guyyaa guyyaa allaattiin samii halkan immoo bineensonni bosonaa reeffa sana tuqan hin eeyyamne.
11 Kwathi uDavida esetshelwe ngokwakwenziwe yindodakazi ka-Ayiya uRizipha, umfazi kaSawuli weceleni,
Wanni Riixiphaan intalli Ayyaa saajjatoon Saaʼol sun hojjette Daawititti himame;
12 wahamba wayathatha amathambo kaSawuli lawendodana yakhe uJonathani ebantwini baseJabheshi Giliyadi. (Babewathathe ensitha enkundleni kazulu eBhethi-Shani, lapho amaFilistiya ayewachaye khona emva kokubulala kwawo uSawuli eGilibhowa.)
innis dhaqee lafee Saaʼolii fi lafee ilma isaa Yoonaataan namoota Yaabeesh Giliʼaad biraa fide. Isaan oobdii Beet Shaan iddoo Filisxeemonni gaafa Gilboʼaatti Saaʼolin ajjeesan itti jara fannisan sanaa isaan hatanii turaniitii.
13 UDavida wawathatha khonapho amathambo kaSawuli lawendodana yakhe uJonathani, lamathambo alabo ababebulawe babuye bachaywa abuthwa.
Daawitis lafee Saaʼolii fi lafee Yoonaataan ilma Saaʼol achii fide; lafeen warra ajjeefamanii fannifamaniis walitti qabame.
14 Amathambo kaSawuli lawendodana yakhe uJonathani bawangcwaba ethuneni likasekaSawuli uKhishi, eZela koBhenjamini, benza konke njengokulaya kwenkosi. Emva kwalokho uNkulunkulu wayiphendula imikhuleko eyenzelwa ilizwe.
Isaanis lafee Saaʼolii fi lafee ilma isaa Yoonaataan biyya Beniyaam keessatti, iddoo Zeelaa jedhamutti awwaala Qiish abbaa Saaʼol keessatti awwaalanii waan mootichi ajaje hunda godhan. Sana booddee Waaqni kadhannaa waaʼee biyyattiif dhiʼaate ni dhagaʼe.
15 Kwaphinda kwaba lempi futhi phakathi kwamaFilistiya lo-Israyeli. UDavida wahamba labantu bakhe ukuyakulwa lamaFilistiya, wasedinwa.
Ammas Filisxeemotaa fi Israaʼel gidduutti waraanni ni kaʼe. Daawitis namoota isaa wajjin Filisxeemota waraanuuf duule; innis akka malee dadhabe.
16 U-Ishibhi-Bhenobi, omunye wabenzalo kaRafa, isihloko somkhonto wakhe wethusi esasilobunzima obungamashekeli angamakhulu amathathu, njalo ehlome ngenkemba entsha, wathi uzabulala uDavida.
Namichi gosa Raafaa kan Yishbii-Benoob jedhamu tokko eeboo naasii kan kiiloo giraamii sadii fi walakkaa ulfaatuu fi goraadee haaraa hidhatee ture; innis Daawitin ajjeesuu barbaade.
17 Kodwa u-Abhishayi indodana kaZeruya wamhlenga uDavida; wamcakazela phansi umFilistiya lowo wambulala. Abantu bakaDavida bafunga kuye bathi, “Kawuyikuhamba lathi futhi empini, ukuze isibane sika-Israyeli singacitshwa.”
Abiishaayi ilmi Zeruuyaa garuu Daawitin baraaruu dhufe; namicha Filisxeem sanas dhaʼee ajjeese. Namoonni Daawitis, “Akka ibsaan Israaʼel hin dhaamneef ati siʼachi nu wajjin waraana hin dhaqxu” jedhanii kakataniif.
18 Ngokuqhubeka kwesikhathi kwaba lenye impi futhi lamaFilistiya, eGobi. Ngalesosikhathi uSibhekhayi umHushathi wabulala uSafi, omunye wabosendo kaRafa.
Ergasii immoo lafa Goob jedhamutti Filisxeemota wajjin waraanni biraa kaʼe. Yeroo sanattis Siibekaay namichi biyya Hushaa namicha Saaf jedhamu tokko sanyii Raafaa keessaa ajjeese.
19 Kweyinye impi lamaFilistiya njalo eGobi, u-Elihanani indodana kaJayiri umBhethilehema wabulala umfowabo kaGoliyathi umGithi, owayelomkhonto owawuloluthi olunjengogodo lomaluki.
Waraana biraa kan Filisxeemota wajjin Goobitti godhame keessatti immoo Elhaanaan ilmi Yaʼiree Oregiim namichi biyya Beetlihem Gooliyaad namicha Gitii kan somaan eeboo isaa loosaa wayya dhooftuu gaʼu sana ni ajjeese.
20 Kanti njalo kwenye impi eyalwelwa eGathi, kwakulendoda enkulu kakhulu ileminwe eyisithupha esandleni ngasinye lamazwane ayisithupha enyaweni ngalunye, sekubalwa konke ndawonye kungamatshumi amabili lane. Laye wayengowosendo lukaRafa.
Ammas waraana Gaatitti godhame kan biraa keessatti namicha hamma wayii gaʼu kan tokkoo tokkoo harka isaa irraa quboota jaʼa jaʼa akkasumas tokkoo tokkoo miilla isaa irraa quboota jaʼa jaʼa walumatti quboota digdamii afur qabu tokkotu ture; innis sanyii Raafaa keessaa dhalate.
21 Kwathi echothoza u-Israyeli, uJonathani indodana kaShimeya, umfowabo kaDavida, wambulala.
Yommuu inni Israaʼelin tuttuqettis, Yoonaataan ilmi Shimeʼii obboleessi Daawit isa ajjeese.
22 Abane laba babengabosendo lukaRafa eGathi, bonke babulawa nguDavida lamabutho akhe.
Jarri afran kunneen sanyiiwwan Raafaa warra Gaati keessa turanii dha. Isaanis harka Daawitii fi harka namoota isaatiin dhuman.
