20 UDavida wasethatha zonke izimvu lenkomo. Baziqhuba phambi kwenkomo lezo, bathi: Le yimpango kaDavida.
David ƒe amewo kplɔ Amalekitɔwo ƒe lãhawo dzoe eye wogblɔ na David be, “Esiawo katã nye wò ŋutɔ tɔ abe wò fetu ene.”
21 UDavida wasefika kulabobantu abangamakhulu amabili ababekhathele kakhulu ukuthi babengelakulandela uDavida, abathi kabahlale esifuleni seBesori; basebephuma ukumhlangabeza uDavida lokuhlangabeza abantu ababelaye. Lapho uDavida esondela kubantu, wababuza impilakahle.
Esi wova ɖo Besor tɔʋu la to la, wodo go woƒe ame alafa eve siwo ŋu ɖeɖi te ale gbegbe be womete ŋu tso tɔʋu la yi kpli wo o. David do gbe na wo dzidzɔtɔe.
22 Basebephendula bonke abantu ababi labakaBheliyali phakathi kwabantu ababehambe loDavida bathi: Njengoba bengahambanga lathi, kasiyikubanika empangweni esiyikhululileyo, ngaphandle kwakuleyo laleyondoda umkayo labantwana bayo, ukuthi babakhokhele bahambe.
Ke gbevu aɖewo nɔ ame siwo de ɖawɔ aʋa la dome gblɔ be, “Ame siawo mede aʋa la kpli mí o eya ta womaxɔ afunyinuwo dometɔ aɖeke o. Ɖe asi le wo srɔ̃wo kple wo viwo ŋu na wo eye nàna woadzo.”
23 Kodwa uDavida wathi: Kaliyikwenza njalo, bafowethu, ngalokho iNkosi esiphe khona, esilondolozileyo, yanikela esandleni sethu iviyo eleza lamelana lathi.
Ke David gblɔ be, “Ao, nɔvinyewo, manyo nenema o! Yehowa na míele dedie eye míeɖu míaƒe futɔwo dzi.
24 Pho, ngubani ozalilalela kuloludaba? Ngoba njengesabelo salowo owehlela empini sinjalo isabelo salowo ohlala lempahla; bazakwabelana ngokulinganayo.
Ame kae alɔ̃ ɖe nya si gblɔm miele la dzi? Míama nuawo eye míama wo sɔsɔe, na ame siwo wɔ aʋa la kple ame siwo dzɔ míaƒe nuwo ŋu.”
25 Kwasekusiba njalo kusukela mhlalokho kusiya phambili, ukuthi wakwenza kwaba yisimiso lesimiselo koIsrayeli kuze kube lamuhla.
Tso gbe ma gbe dzi la, David wɔ numama alea wònye se kple kɔnu na Israelviwo katã va se ɖe egbe.
