1 Imilando 11

1 UIsrayeli wonke wasebuthana kuDavida eHebroni esithi: Khangela, thina silithambo lakho lenyama yakho.

Na Israel nyinaa kɔɔ Dawid nkyɛn wɔ Hebron kɔka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Yɛn nyinaa yɛ wʼabusuafoɔ.

2 Ngitsho mandulo, ngitsho uSawuli eyinkosi, nguwe owakhupha lowangenisa uIsrayeli; iNkosi uNkulunkulu wakho yasisithi kuwe: Wena uzakwelusa abantu bami uIsrayeli, njalo wena uzakuba ngumbusi phezu kwabantu bami uIsrayeli.

Mmerɛ tenten bi a atwam, mpo ɛberɛ a Saulo di yɛn so ɔhene no, na wone obi a nokorɛm na wodi Israel anim. Na Awurade, wo Onyankopɔn, aka kyerɛ wo sɛ, ‘Wobɛyɛ odwanhwɛfoɔ ama me nkurɔfoɔ Israel. Wobɛyɛ wɔn sodifoɔ.’”

3 Kwasekufika bonke abadala bakoIsrayeli enkosini eHebroni. UDavida wasesenza isivumelwano labo eHebroni phambi kweNkosi. Basebemgcoba uDavida ukuba yinkosi phezu kukaIsrayeli, njengelizwi leNkosi ngesandla sikaSamuweli.

Enti, Dawid ne Israel ntuanofoɔ no yɛɛ apam wɔ Awurade anim wɔ Hebron. Wɔsraa no ngo, sii no Israelhene sɛdeɛ Awurade nam Samuel so hyɛɛ ho bɔ no.

4 UDavida loIsrayeli wonke basebesiya eJerusalema, eyiJebusi, ngoba lapho kwakulamaJebusi, abahlali balelolizwe.

Na Dawid ne Israel nyinaa kɔɔ Yerusalem anaa Yebus, sɛdeɛ na wɔfrɛ hɔ kane no, ɛfiri sɛ, Yebusifoɔ na wɔkɔtenaa asase no so kane kyekyereeɛ.

5 Abahlali beJebusi basebesithi kuDavida: Kawuyikungena lapha. Kodwa uDavida wayithumba inqaba yeZiyoni, engumuzi kaDavida.

Nnipa a wɔfiri Yebus no ka kyerɛɛ Dawid sɛ, “Worentumi mma ha da biara da.” Nanso, Dawid faa aban a na ɛwɔ Sion a wɔfrɛ no Dawid Kuro no.

6 UDavida wasesithi: Loba ngubani ozatshaya amaJebusi kuqala uzakuba yinhloko lenduna. Ngakho uJowabi indodana kaZeruya wenyuka kuqala, waba yinhloko.

Dawid ka kyerɛɛ nʼakodɔm no sɛ, “Mo mu biara a ɔbɛdi anim na yɛakɔto ahyɛ Yebusifoɔ no so no, ɔno na ɔbɛyɛ mʼakodɔm so sahene.” Na Dawid nuabaa Seruia babarima Yoab dii ntohyɛsoɔ no anim, enti ɔbɛyɛɛ Dawid akodɔm so sahene.

7 UDavida wasehlala enqabeni; ngalokho-ke bayibiza ngokuthi ngumuzi kaDavida.

Dawid tenaa aban no mu, na ɛno enti na wɔfrɛɛ hɔ Dawid kuro no.

8 Wasewakha umuzi inhlangothi zonke, kusukela eMilo waze wawuhlanganisa. UJowabi wasevuselela okuseleyo komuzi.

Dawid kyekyeree kuro no, trɛɛ mu firi Milo de twaa ho hyiaeɛ, ɛberɛ a na Yoab nso rekyekyere Yerusalem nkaeɛ no.

9 UDavida wasesiya eqhubeka esiba mkhulu, ngoba iNkosi yamabandla yayilaye.

Na Dawid tumi yɛɛ kɛseɛ, ɛfiri sɛ, na Asafo Awurade ka ne ho.

10 Lalezi zinhloko zamaqhawe uDavida ayelazo, ezaziqinisa kanye laye embusweni wakhe, loIsrayeli wonke, ukumenza inkosi, njengelizwi leNkosi mayelana loIsrayeli.

Yeinom ne Dawid nnɔmmarima ntuanofoɔ. Wɔne Israel nyinaa boom, sii gyinaeɛ sɛ wɔde Dawid bɛyɛ wɔn so ɔhene sɛdeɛ Awurade ahyɛ bɔ afa Israel ho no.

11 Laleli linani lamaqhawe uDavida ayelawo: UJashobeyamu indodana yomHakimoni inhloko yamatshumi amathathu; yena waphakamisa umkhonto wakhe emelene labangamakhulu amathathu, wababulala ngasikhathi sinye.

Dawid nnɔmmarima no ho nsɛm nie: Deɛ ɔdi ɛkan no ne Yasobeam, a ɔyɛ Hakmonini a na ɔda Baasa no ano sɛ ɔsahene—Baasa no yɛ nnɔmmarima akatakyie a na wɔwɔ Dawid asraafoɔ mu. Ɛberɛ bi, ɔde ne pea kunkumm atamfoɔ ahasa wɔ akodie baako mu.

12 Lemva kwakhe kwakuloEleyazare indodana kaDodo umAhohi; wayephakathi kwamaqhawe amathathu.

Deɛ ɔtɔ so mmienu wɔ Baasa no mu no yɛ Dodo babarima Eleasa a ɔyɛ Ahoa aseni.

13 Yena wayeloDavida ePasi-Damimi lapho amaFilisti ayebuthanele impi khona. Lesiqinti sensimu sasigcwele ibhali; abantu basebebaleka phambi kwamaFilisti.

Ɛberɛ a Dawid sɔre tiaa Filistifoɔ wɔ Pas-Damim no, na ɔka ne ho. Ɔko no sii wɔ baabi a na ɛyɛ atokofuo nko, na Israel asraafoɔ no dwaneeɛ.

14 Bona bazimisa phakathi kwesiqinti, basikhulula, batshaya amaFilisti, iNkosi yasisindisa ngokukhulula okukhulu.

Nanso, Eleasa ne Dawid gyinaa wɔn nan so wɔ afuo no mfimfini, bɔɔ Filistifoɔ guiɛ. Na Awurade maa wɔdii nkonim de gyee wɔn.

15 Abathathu ezinduneni ezingamatshumi amathathu basebesehlela edwaleni kuDavida, ebhalwini lweAdulamu; lebutho lamaFilisti lalimise inkamba esihotsheni seRefayimi.

Ɛda bi a Dawid wɔ ɔbotan bi a ɛbɛn Adulam ɔbodan ho no, na Filistifoɔ asraadɔm akyere sraban wɔ Refaim bɔnhwa mu. Baasa no a na wɔka Aduasa no a wɔagye edin wɔ Dawid akodɔm mu no siane kɔhyiaa no wɔ hɔ.

16 UDavida ngalesosikhathi wayesenqabeni, lebutho lenqaba lamaFilisti ngalesosikhathi laliseBhethelehema.

Saa ɛberɛ no, na Dawid te abanbɔeɛ mu hɔ a na Filistifoɔ akodɔm kuo bi akɔtena Betlehem.

17 UDavida waselangatha wathi: Hawu, kungathi omunye ubenganginathisa amanzi omthombo weBhethelehema osesangweni!

Dawid firi akɔnnɔ mu kaeɛ sɛ, “Ao me kɔn dɔ nsu pa a ɛwɔ abura a ɛwɔ Betlehem no bi; deɛ ɛbɛn ɛpono ano no bi.”

18 Labo abathathu bafohlela enkambeni yamaFilisti, bakha amanzi emthonjeni weBhethelehema owawusesangweni, bawathwala bawaletha kuDavida; kodwa uDavida kafunanga ukuwanatha, kodwa wawathululela iNkosi.

Enti, Baasa no bɔ wuraa Filistifoɔ no mu, kɔsaa abura no mu nsuo no bi de brɛɛ Dawid. Nanso, Dawid annom. Mmom, ɔhwie guu Awurade anim

19 Wasesithi: Kakube khatshana lami, ngoNkulunkulu wami, ukwenza lokho. Nginganatha yini igazi lalamadoda abeke impilo yawo engozini? Ngoba ngokubeka impilo yawo engozini, awalethile. Ngakho kafunanga ukuwanatha. Lezizinto azenza lawomaqhawe amathathu.

teaam sɛ, “Ɛmpare me sɛ mɛnom saa nsuo yi. Ɛsom bo te sɛ saa mmarima yi a wɔde wɔn ho bɔɔ afɔdeɛ kɔsa brɛɛ me no mogya.” Enti, Dawid annom. Yei yɛ Baasa no mmaninsɛm no bi nhwɛsoɔ.

20 UAbishayi umfowabo kaJowabi, yena-ke wayeyinhloko yabathathu. Yena ephakamisa umkhonto wakhe emelene labangamakhulu amathathu wababulala; wasesiba lebizo phakathi kwabathathu.

Yoab nuabarima Abisai na na ɔtua Aduasa no ano. Ɔno na ɔde ne pea kunkumm atamfoɔ no mu ahasa. Saa mmaninsɛm yi enti na ɔgyee edin te sɛ Baasa no.

21 Kwabathathu wayehlonitshwa kulababili, wasesiba yinduna yabo; kodwa kafinyelelanga kwabathathu abokuqala.

Abisai na na ne din ahyeta yie wɔ Aduasa no mu sɛ wɔn sahene, nanso na ɔnka Baasa no ho.

22 UBhenaya indodana kaJehoyada, indodana yeqhawe leKabhiseyeli, wayemkhulu ngezenzo: Nguye owatshaya abakoMowabi ababili ababenjengezilwane; futhi yena wehla wabulala isilwane phakathi komgodi mhla weliqhwa elikhithikileyo.

Na Yehoiada babarima Benaia a ɔfiri Kabseel no nso wɔ hɔ. Na ɔno nso di mmaninsɛm. Ɔyɛɛ bebree a emu baako ne sɛ ɔkunkumm Moab akofoɔ akɛseɛ baanu bi. Ɛberɛ foforɔ bi nso, ɔtaa gyata maa aboa no kɔtɔɔ amena mu. Na sukyerɛmma ama fam ayɛ toro, nanso, ɔkyeree gyata no kumm no.

23 Yena wasetshaya indoda engumGibhithe, umuntu omude, ozingalo ezinhlanu. Lesandleni somGibhithe kwakulomkhonto onjengogodo lomeluki; kodwa wehlela kuye ngenduku, wahluthuna umkhonto esandleni somGibhithe, wambulala ngowakhe umkhonto.

Ɛda bi a na ɔkura aporibaa nko ara no, ɔkumm Misraimni ɔkofoɔ bi a na ne tenten yɛ anammɔn nson ne fa. Na ne pea no mu pipiripie te sɛ ntomanwomfoɔ nsadua. Benaia hwam pea no firii Misraimni no nsam, de kumm no.

24 Lezizinto wazenza uBhenaya indodana kaJehoyada, waba lebizo phakathi kwamaqhawe amathathu.

Yeinom ne mmaninsɛm a ɛmaa Yehoiada babarima Benaia gyee edin te sɛ Baasa no.

25 Khangela, wahlonitshwa phakathi kwabangamatshumi amathathu, kodwa kafinyelelanga kwabathathu. UDavida wasembeka phezu kwabalindi bakhe.

Wɔhyɛɛ no animuonyam sene nkaeɛ a wɔka Aduasa no ho no, nanso na ɔmfra Baasa no mu. Na Dawid yɛɛ no ne ho awɛmfoɔ no so sahene.
