1 Amakhosi 2
1 Insuku zikaDavida zokuthi afe zasezisondela, waselaya uSolomoni indodana yakhe esithi:
Esi Fia David ƒe kuɣi ɖo vɔ la, egblɔ na via, Solomo be:
2 Sengihamba indlela yomhlaba wonke. Ngakho qina, ube yindoda,
“Mele demagbɔnugbe yim eya ta lé dzi ɖe ƒo, nàwɔ kalẽ.
3 ugcine imfanelo yeNkosi uNkulunkulu wakho, ukuhamba ngezindlela zayo, ukugcina izimiso zayo, imithetho yayo, lezahlulelo zayo, lobufakazi bayo, njengokubhaliweyo emlayweni kaMozisi, ukuze uphumelele kukho konke okwenzayo, laloba ngaphi lapho ophendukela khona,
Wɔ nu siwo katã Yehowa, wò Mawu ɖo na wò. Wɔ eƒe se siwo katã woŋlɔ ɖe Mose ƒe agbalẽ me la dzi ale be nu sia nu si nàwɔ le go ɖe sia ɖe me la nadze edzi na wò.
4 ukuze iNkosi iqinise ilizwi layo eyalikhuluma mayelana lami isithi: Uba amadodana akho eqaphelisa indlela yawo, ukuhamba ngobuqotho phambi kwami ngenhliziyo yonke yawo langomphefumulo wonke wawo, (isithi) kakuyikusweleka kuwe indoda esihlalweni sobukhosi sikaIsrayeli.
Ne èwɔ alea la, ekema Yehowa awɔ ŋugbe si wòdo nam la dzi. Ŋugbe siae nye be ne vinyewo kple woƒe dzidzimeviwo azɔ nyuie, eye woawɔ nuteƒe na ye, Mawu la, ekema wo dometɔ ɖeka anye fia na Israel ɣe sia ɣi eye nye fiaɖuƒe nu mayi akpɔ o.
5 Futhi-ke wena uyakwazi ukuthi uJowabi indodana kaZeruya wenzani kimi, ukuthi wenzani kuzinduna ezimbili zamabutho akoIsrayeli, kuAbhineri indodana kaNeri, lakuAmasa indodana kaJetheri, owababulala wachitha igazi lempi ekuthuleni, wafaka igazi lempi ebhantini lakhe elalisekhalweni lwakhe lemanyathelweni asenyaweni zakhe.
“Ènya be Yoab, Yeruya vi wu nye Israelʋafia eve, Abner kple Amasa. Eble amewo be aʋa mee yewu wo le, le esime wònye ŋutifafa ƒe ɣeyiɣiwo mee wòwu wo le.
6 Ngakho yenza njengenhlakanipho yakho, ungayekeli ikhanda lakhe elilezimvu lehlele engcwabeni ngokuthula. (Sheol h7585)
Ame nyanue nènye eye ànya nu si nàwɔ; mègana wòaku le ŋutifafa me o. (Sheol h7585)
7 Kodwa kumadodana kaBarizilayi umGileyadi wenze umusa, njalo kawabe phakathi kwabadla etafuleni lakho, ngoba ngokunjalo asondela kimi ekubalekeleni kwami ubuso bukaAbisalomu umfowenu.
“Ke ve Barzilai, Gileadtɔ la ƒe viwo nu elabena wove nunye esi mesi le vinye Absalom nu.
8 Futhi khangela, kukhona kuwe uShimeyi indodana kaGera umBhenjamini weBahurimi, owangithuka ngesethuko esibuhlungu mhla ngisiya eMahanayimi; kodwa wehla ukungihlangabeza eJordani, ngasengifunga kuye ngeNkosi ngathi: Kangiyikukubulala ngenkemba.
“Èɖo ŋku Simei, ame si nye Gera, Benyamintɔ tso Bahurim ƒe vi dzia? Eƒo fi dem vevie esime meyina Mahanaim. Ke esi wòva kpem le Yɔdan tɔsisi la nu la, medo ŋugbe nɛ le Yehowa ŋkɔ me be nyemawui o.
9 Ngakho-ke ungamyekeli abe ngongelacala, ngoba ungumuntu ohlakaniphileyo, ngoba uyakwazi ozakwenza kuye, njalo uzakwehlisela ikhanda lakhe eliyimpunga lilegazi engcwabeni. (Sheol h7585)
Ke azɔ la, mègabui ame maɖifɔe o. Nunyalae nènye; ànya nu si nàwɔe. Ɖo eƒe ta ƒowɔ la ɖe yɔ me to ʋu me.” (Sheol h7585)
10 UDavida waselala laboyise, wangcwatshelwa emzini kaDavida.
Ale David ku eye woɖii ɖe Yerusalem, David ƒe du la me.
11 Njalo insuku uDavida abusa ngazo phezu kukaIsrayeli zaziyiminyaka engamatshumi amane; eHebroni wabusa iminyaka eyisikhombisa, leJerusalema wabusa iminyaka engamatshumi amathathu lantathu.
Eɖu fia ɖe Israel dzi ƒe blaene, ƒe adre le Hebron, ƒe blaetɔ̃-vɔ-etɔ̃ le Yerusalem.
12 USolomoni wasehlala esihlalweni sobukhosi sikaDavida uyise, lombuso wakhe waqiniswa kakhulu.
Solomo zu fia yeye ɖe fofoa, David teƒe eye nuwo tsɔ afɔ nyuie le eƒe fiaɖuƒe la me.
13 UAdonija indodana kaHagithi wasesiza kuBathisheba unina kaSolomoni; wasesithi: Ukuza kwakho kuyikuthula yini? Wasesithi: Ukuthula.
Gbe ɖeka la, Adoniya, Hagit ƒe vi la va Fia Solomo dada, Batseba gbɔ. Batseba biae be, “Ŋutifafae nètsɔ vɛa?” Adoniya ɖo eŋu be, “Ɛ̃, ŋutifafa mee meva le.
14 Wathi: Ngilelizwi kuwe. Wasesithi: Khuluma.
Le nyateƒe me la, meva be maɖe kuku na wò, nàve nunye le mɔ tɔxɛ aɖe nu.” Batseba biae be, “Nu kae?”
15 Wasesithi: Wena uyakwazi ukuthi umbuso wawungowami, lokuthi uIsrayeli wonke babebeke ubuso babo kimi ukuthi ngizabusa; kodwa umbuso waphendulwa, waba ngowomfowethu, ngoba waba ngowakhe uvela eNkosini.
Adoniya ɖo eŋu be, “Tsã la, fiaɖuƒe la nye tɔnye eye Israel katã bu be nyee anye fia yeyea hafi. Ke nuwo va trɔ eye nu sia nu va yi nɔvinye boŋ ƒe asi me elabena nenemae Yehowa di be wòanɔ.
16 Khathesi-ke, ngicela isicelo esisodwa kuwe, ungafulathelisi ubuso bami. Wasesithi kuye: Khuluma.
Azɔ la, medi be mabia wò nàna kpekpeɖeŋu tɔxɛ aɖem. Meɖe kuku, mègagbe kpekpeɖeŋu sia nanam o.” Batseba biae be, “Nu kae?”
17 Wasesithi: Ake ukhulume loSolomoni inkosi (ngoba kayikufulathelisa ubuso bakho) ukuthi anginike uAbishagi umShunami abe ngumkami.
Eɖo eŋu be, “Ƒo nu na Fia Solomo nam elabena menya be awɔ nu sia nu si nàbiae. Ƒo nu nɛ nam be wòatsɔ Abisag, Sunami nyɔnu la nam maɖe.”
18 UBathisheba wasesithi: Kulungile; mina ngizakukhulumela enkosini.
Batseba ɖo eŋu be, “Enyo, mabiae na wò.”
19 Ngakho uBathisheba wasesiya enkosini uSolomoni ukukhulumela uAdonija kuyo. Inkosi yasisukuma ukumhlangabeza, yakhothama kuye, yahlala esihlalweni sayo sobukhosi, yathi kubekelwe unina wenkosi isihlalo sobukhosi; wasehlala ngakwesokunene sayo.
Ale Batseba yi be yeagblɔ nya la na Fia Solomo le Adoniya ƒe ŋkɔ me. Esi wòɖo fia la gbɔ ko la, fia la tso le eƒe fiazikpui dzi, bɔbɔ eye wòde ta agu na dadaa. Eɖe gbe be woatsɔ fiazikpui aɖe ada ɖe ye tɔ gbɔ na ye dada, ale dadaa nɔ eƒe ɖusime.
20 Wasesithi: Ngicela isicelo esisodwa esincinyane kuwe, ungafulathelisi ubuso bami. Inkosi yasisithi kuye: Cela, mama, ngoba kangiyikufulathelisa ubuso bakho.
Dadaa gblɔ nɛ be, “Meva be mabia nane wò; meka ɖe edzi be màgbe nu si mabia wò la wɔwɔ o.” Fia la biae be, “Nu kae, danye? Ènya be, màbia nanekem magbe o.”
21 Wasesithi: UAbishagi umShunami kanikwe uAdonija umfowenu abe ngumkakhe.
Dadaa gblɔ nɛ be, “Ɖe mɔ nɔviwò, Adoniya naɖe Abisag.”
22 Inkosi uSolomoni yasiphendula yathi kunina: Usumcelelelani uAdonija uAbishagi umShunami? Umcelele lombuso, ngoba ungumfowethu omdala kulami, yebo yena loAbhiyatha umpristi loJowabi indodana kaZeruya.
Fia Solomo ɖo ŋu na dadaa be, “Nu ka ta nèle Abisag, Sunami nyɔnu la biam na Adoniya ɖo? Bia fiaɖuƒe la hã na eya kple nunɔla Abiata kple Aʋafia Yoab si nye Zeruya ƒe vi la elabna fonyee.”
23 Inkosi uSolomoni yasifunga ngeNkosi isithi: Kenze njalo uNkulunkulu kimi lokunjalo engezelele, uba uAdonija engakhulumanga lelilizwi emelene lempilo yakhe.
Tete Fia Solomo tsɔ Yehowa ka atam be, “Mawu nafiam agafiam ɖe edzi, ne Adoniya metsɔ eƒe agbe xe fe ɖe nu si wòbia la ta o!
24 Ngakho-ke, kuphila kukaJehova ongimisileyo wangibeka esihlalweni sobukhosi sikaDavida ubaba, wangenzela indlu njengokukhuluma kwakhe, isibili lamuhla uAdonija uzabulawa.
Ke azɔ la, zi ale si Yehowa le agbe, ame si tsɔm ɖo fofonye, David ƒe fiazikpui dzi eye wòɖo fiaɖuƒe anyi nam abe ale si wòdo ŋugbe ene la, woawu Adoniya egbea!”
25 Inkosi uSolomoni yasithuma ngesandla sikaBhenaya indodana kaJehoyada, owamsukelayo, wasesifa.
Ale Fia Solomo ɖo Benaya ɖa be wòayi aɖawu Adoniya eye wòyi ɖawui kple yi.
26 LakuAbhiyatha umpristi inkosi yathi: Yana eAnathothi emasimini akho, ngoba ungumuntu wokufa; kodwa lamuhla kangiyikukubulala ngoba wawuthwala umtshokotsho weNkosi uJehova phambi kukaDavida ubaba, langoba wahlupheka kukho konke ubaba ahlupheka ngakho.
Le esia megbe la, fia la gblɔ na nunɔla Abiata be, “Yi wò aƒe me le Anatɔt; ele be woawu wò hã gake nyemawu wò fifia o elabena wòe tsɔ Aƒetɔ la ƒe nubablaɖaka la le fofonye ƒe fiaɖuɣi eye nèkpe fu sia fu kplii to eƒe xaxaɣiwo katã me.”
27 Ngakho uSolomoni wamxotsha uAbhiyatha ekubeni ngumpristi weNkosi, ukugcwalisa ilizwi leNkosi eyalikhuluma mayelana lendlu kaEli eShilo.
Ale Solomo nya Abiata be magawɔ dɔ abe Yehowa ƒe nunɔla ene o. Ale wona Yehowa ƒe nya si wògblɔ ɖi ɖe Eli kple eƒe dzidzimeviwo ŋu le Silo la va eme.
28 Kwathi umbiko ufika kuJowabi, ngoba uJowabi wayephenduke walandela uAdonija lanxa wayengaphendukanga walandela uAbisalomu, uJowabi wabalekela ethenteni leNkosi, wabamba impondo zelathi.
Yoab nye aʋafia na David ƒe aʋakɔ eye mede Absalom dzi o, ke ede Adoniya ya dzi. Esi Yoab se Adoniya ƒe ku la, eƒu du yi ɖadi sitsoƒe le Agbadɔ la me eye wòlé vɔsamlekpui la ƒe lãdzowo ɖe asi.
29 Kwasekubikelwa inkosi uSolomoni ukuthi uJowabi usebalekele ethenteni leNkosi, khangela-ke, useceleni kwelathi. USolomoni wasethuma uBhenaya indodana kaJehoyada esithi: Hamba umsukele.
Esi Fia Solomo se nya sia la, eɖo Benaya ɖa be wòayi aɖawui.
30 Ngakho uBhenaya waya ethenteni leNkosi, wathi kuye: Itsho njalo inkosi: Phuma! Kodwa wathi: Hatshi, kodwa ngizafela lapha. UBhenaya wasebuyisela ilizwi enkosini, esithi: Utsho njalo uJowabi, ungiphendule njalo.
Benaya yi agbadɔ la me; ekpɔ Yoab eye wògblɔ nɛ be, “Fia Solomo be, ‘do go!’” Yoab ɖo eŋu be, “Ao, medi be maku ɖe afi sia.” Ale Benaya trɔ yi fia la gbɔ hegblɔ nɛ be, “Ale Yoab gblɔ eye ale wòɖo eŋu nam enye esi.”
31 Inkosi yasisithi kuye: Yenza njengokutsho kwakhe, umsukele, umngcwabe; ukuze ususe kimi lendlini kababa igazi elingelacala uJowabi alichithayo.
Fia la gblɔ be, “Wɔ eƒe didi dzi, wui le vɔsamlekpui la gbɔ eye nàɖii. Esia aɖe amewo wuwu dzodzro ƒe fɔɖiɖi ɖa le nye kple fofonye ƒe ƒome la dzi.
32 Njalo iNkosi izabuyisela igazi lakhe ekhanda lakhe, owasukela amadoda amabili ayelungile engcono kulaye, wawabulala ngenkemba, ubaba uDavida engazi: UAbhineri indodana kaNeri induna yebutho lakoIsrayeli, loAmasa indodana kaJetheri induna yebutho lakoJuda.
Ekema Yehowa ana ame eve siwo nyo wui hafi wòwu wo la ƒe nu vɔ̃ nanɔ eya ŋutɔ dzi elabena fofonye ƒe asi menɔ Aʋafia Abner, Israelʋakɔ la ƒe kplɔla gã la kple Aʋafia Amasa, Yudaʋakɔwo ƒe kplɔla gã la ƒe ku me o.
33 Ngakho igazi labo lizabuyela ekhanda likaJowabi lekhanda lenzalo yakhe kuze kube nininini; kodwa kuDavida lenzalweni yakhe, lendlini yakhe, lembusweni wakhe, kuzakuba lokuthula kuze kube nininini okuvela eNkosini.
Ame siawo wuwu ƒe nu vɔ̃ nanɔ Yoab kple eƒe dzidzimeviwo dzi tegbetegbe eye Mawu nakpɔe be David kple eƒe dzidzimeviwo meɖi fɔ le ame siawo wuwu me o.”
34 UBhenaya indodana kaJehoyada wasesenyuka, wamsukela wambulala; wasengcwatshelwa endlini yakhe enkangala.
Ale Benaya trɔ yi agbadɔ la me eye wòwu Yoab. Woɖi eƒe kukua ɖe eƒe aƒe xa le gbegbe.
35 Inkosi yasibeka uBhenaya indodana kaJehoyada esikhundleni sakhe phezu kwebutho, loZadoki umpristi inkosi yambeka esikhundleni sikaAbhiyatha.
Fia Solomo ɖo Benaya aʋafia gãe ɖe Yoab teƒe eye wòtsɔ Zadok ɖo nunɔla ɖe Abiata teƒe.
36 Inkosi yasithuma yabiza uShimeyi, yathi kuye: Zakhele indlu eJerusalema, uhlale khona, ungaphumi lapho uye ngaphi langaphi.
Fia la ɖo du ɖe Simei eye wògblɔ nɛ be, “Tu xɔ na ɖokuiwò ɖe Yerusalem eye nànɔ afi ma; mègayi teƒe bubu aɖeke o.
37 Ngoba kuzakuthi mhla uphumayo, uchaphe isifula iKidroni, yazi lokwazi ukuthi uzakufa lokufa; igazi lakho lizakuba phezu kwekhanda lakho.
Gbe si gbe nàtso Kidron bali la la, nànya nyuie be yeaku eye yeƒe ʋu anɔ ye ŋutɔ ƒe ta dzi.”
38 UShimeyi wasesithi enkosini: Lelolizwi lihle; njengokutsho kwenkosi yami, inkosi, inceku yakho izakwenza njalo. UShimeyi wasehlala eJerusalema insuku ezinengi.
Simei gblɔ nɛ be, “Mesee; mawɔ nu sia nu si nye aƒetɔ fia la gblɔ.” Ale wònɔ Yerusalem ɣeyiɣi didi aɖe.
39 Kwasekusithi ekupheleni kweminyaka emithathu inceku ezimbili zikaShimeyi zabalekela kuAkishi indodana kaMahaka inkosi yeGathi. Basebebikela uShimeyi besithi: Khangela, inceku zakho ziseGathi.
Le ƒe etɔ̃ megbe la, Simei ƒe kluvi eve si yi Gat fia, Akis gbɔ. Esime Simei se be wole afi ma la,
40 Wasesukuma uShimeyi, wabophela isihlalo kubabhemi wakhe, waya eGathi kuAkishi ukudinga inceku zakhe; uShimeyi wahamba waletha inceku zakhe zivela eGathi.
edo tedzi yi Gat le Akis gbɔ be yeadi yeƒe kluviwo. Esi wòkpɔ eƒe kluviawo la, ekplɔ wo va Yerusalem.
41 Kwasekubikelwa uSolomoni ukuthi uShimeyi wayesukile eJerusalema waya eGathi, njalo wabuyela.
Fia Solomo se be Simei dzo le Yerusalem yi Gat eye wòtrɔ gbɔ.
42 Inkosi yasithuma yabiza uShimeyi yathi kuye: Kangikufungisanga yini ngeNkosi, ngafakaza kuwe ngathi: Mhla uphumayo ukuya ngaphi langaphi yazi lokwazi ukuthi uzakufa lokufa? Wasusithi kimi: Lihle ilizwi engilizwileyo.
Eyɔe hebiae be, “Ɖe nyemeɖo na wò be nànɔ Yerusalem alo nàku oa? Wò ŋutɔ mèɖo eŋu gblɔ be, ‘Mesee; mawɔ nu sia nu si nènya gblɔ ko’ oa?
43 Pho, kungani ungasigcinanga isifungo seNkosi lomlayo engakulaya ngawo?
Ekema nu ka ta mèwɔ míaƒe ɖoɖo kple nye se la dzi o?”
44 Inkosi yasisithi kuShimeyi: Wena uyazi bonke ububi inhliziyo yakho ebaziyo owabenza kuDavida ubaba; ngakho iNkosi izabuyisela ububi bakho phezu kwekhanda lakho.
“Nya kae le asiwò le nu vɔ̃ɖi siwo katã nèwɔ ɖe fofonye, Fia David, ŋu la ta? Yehowa nabia hlɔ̃ wò
45 Kodwa inkosi uSolomoni ibusisiwe, lesihlalo sobukhosi sikaDavida sizaqiniswa phambi kweNkosi kuze kube nininini.
gake wòakɔ eƒe yayra gã ɖe Solomo dzi ale be David ƒe fiazikpui la ali ke le Yehowa ƒe ŋkume tegbee.”
46 Ngakho inkosi yalaya uBhenaya indodana kaJehoyada, owaphuma wamsukela waze wafa. Ngakho umbuso waqiniswa esandleni sikaSolomoni.
Enumake Fia Solomo ɖe gbe eye Benaya kplɔ Simei yi gota eye wòwui. Ale Solomo ƒe fianyenye li ke ɖe Israel dukɔ la me.
