1 Kwathi uDavida esedlule kancinyane engqongeni, khangela, uZiba inceku kaMefiboshethi wamhlangabeza elabobabhemi ababili belezihlalo, bethwele izinkwa ezingamakhulu amabili, lamahlukuzo alikhulu ezithelo ezonyisiweyo zevini, lezithelo zehlobo ezilikhulu, lomgodla wewayini.
Esi David to toa tame yina sẽe ko la, Ziba, ame si nye Mefiboset ƒe aƒedzikpɔla la va tui. Etsɔ abolo alafa eve, waintsetse ƒuƒu ka alafa ɖeka, waintsetse mumu kpo alafa ɖeka kple wain adzafi sue ɖeka ɖe tedzi eve dzi vɛ.
2 Inkosi yasisithi kuZiba: Uthini ngalezizinto? UZiba wasesithi: Obabhemi ngabendlu yenkosi ukuthi bagade, lezinkwa lezithelo zehlobo ngezamajaha ukuthi adle, lewayini ngelabaphelelwa ngamandla enkangala ukuthi banathe.
Fia la bia Ziba be, “Nu ka míawɔ kple nu siawo?” Ziba ɖo eŋu be, “Tedziawo nye wò amewo tɔ be woanɔ dodom, aboloawo kple kutsetseawo nye ɖekakpuiawo ƒe nuɖuɖu. Ne ɖeɖi te ŋuwòme aɖe ŋu le gbegbea la, wòano wain la.”
3 Inkosi yasisithi: Pho, ingaphi indodana yenkosi yakho? UZiba wasesithi enkosini: Khangela, uhlezi eJerusalema, ngoba uthe: Lamuhla uIsrayeli uzabuyisela kimi umbuso kababa.
Fia la bia be, “Afi ka Mefiboset le?” Ziba ɖo eŋu be, “Enɔ Yerusalem; egblɔ be, ‘Mezu fia azɔ! Egbe la maxɔ fofonye, Saul, ƒe fiaɖuƒe la!’”
4 Inkosi yasisithi kuZiba: Khangela, ngokwakho konke okukaMefiboshethi. UZiba wasesithi: Ngiyakhothama; kangithole umusa emehlweni akho, nkosi yami, nkosi.
Fia la gblɔ na Ziba be, “Ekema metsɔ nu sia nu si nye etɔ la na wò.” Ziba ɖo eŋu be, “Akpe na wò; meda akpe gã aɖe na wò, nye amegã.”
5 Kwathi inkosi uDavida ifika eBahurimi, khangela, kwaphuma khona umuntu wosendo lwendlu kaSawuli, obizo lakhe linguShimeyi indodana kaGera; waphuma, ehamba ethuka.
Esi David kple eŋumewo gogo Bahurim la, ŋutsu aɖe do go tso kɔƒe aɖe me heƒo fi de wo. Ame siae nye Simei, Gera ƒe vi eye wòganye Saul ƒe ƒometɔ.
6 Wasejikijela uDavida ngamatshe kanye lenceku zonke zenkosi uDavida, labo bonke abantu lamaqhawe wonke ngakwesokunene sakhe langakwesokhohlo sakhe.
Eda kpe Fia la kple eƒe aʋafiawo kple aʋawɔla siwo katã ƒo xlãe!
7 Wasesitsho njalo uShimeyi ekuthukeni kwakhe: Phuma, phuma, muntu wegazi, muntu kaBheliyali!
Simei ƒo fi de David kple ɣli be, “Bu le afi sia, bu le afi sia, wò hlɔ̃dola kple ame vɔ̃ɖi!
8 INkosi ibuyisele phezu kwakho lonke igazi lendlu kaSawuli obubusa esikhundleni sakhe; iNkosi inikele umbuso esandleni sikaAbisalomu indodana yakho. Khangela, usebubini bakho, ngoba ungumuntu omele igazi.
Yehowa xe fe na wò ɖe ʋu siwo katã nèkɔ ɖe anyi le Saul, ame si teƒe nèle fia ɖum le la ƒe aƒe me eya ta Yehowa xɔ fiaɖuƒe la na viwò Absalom. Ège ɖe dzɔgbevɔ̃e me elabena ènye hlɔ̃dola!”
9 UAbishayi indodana kaZeruya wasesithi enkosini: Linja efileyo iyithukelani inkosi yami, inkosi? Ake ngedlule ngisuse ikhanda layo.
Abisai bia be, “Nu ka ta avu kuku sia aƒo fi ade wò, nye aƒetɔ, fia, mahã? Ɖe mɔ nam matso ta le enu!”
10 Kodwa inkosi yathi: Ngilani lani, madodana kaZeruya? Ngakho kathuke, ngoba iNkosi ithe kuye: Thuka uDavida; pho, ngubani ozakuthi: Wenzeleni njalo?
Ke fia la gblɔ be, “Nya kae le nye kple miawo, Zeruya ƒe viwo, dome? Ne ele ɖiŋu dom elabena Yehowae gblɔ nɛ be, ‘Ƒo fi de David’ la, ame ka ate ŋu abia be, ‘Nu ka ta nèle nu sia wɔm ɖo?’”
11 UDavida wasesithi kuAbishayi lakuzo zonke inceku zakhe: Khangela, indodana yami, ephume emibilini yami, idinga impilo yami; kangakanani-ke lumBhenjamini? Myekeleni, athuke, ngoba iNkosi ikhulumile kuye.
David gblɔ na Abisai kple eŋumewo be, “Vinye, ame si nye nye ŋutɔ nye ŋutilã la, le agbagba dzem be yeawum, ekema nu ka Benyamintɔ sia mawɔ o? Zi kpi kpɔe wòaƒo fi dem elabena Yehowae ɖoe nɛ.
12 Mhlawumbe iNkosi izabona usizi lwami, iNkosi ingibuyisele okuhle esikhundleni sokuthuka kwakhe lamuhla.
Alo ɖewohĩ Yehowa akpɔe be edo ɖiŋu nam dzodzro eye wòayram le eƒe fiƒodewo ta.”
13 UDavida labantu bakhe basebehamba ngendlela; loShimeyi ehamba eceleni kwentaba maqondana laye, ehamba ethuka, emjikijela ngamatshe, emthela ngothuli.
Ale David kplɔ eƒe amewo yi mɔzɔzɔ la dzi eye Simei hã nɔ zɔzɔm ɖe wo ŋu le togbɛa ƒe akpa kemɛ. Enɔ fi ƒom de David, nɔ kpe damii eye wònɔ ke wum ɖe yame ɖe wo ŋu.
14 Inkosi labo bonke abantu ababelayo bafika sebekhathele; yasihlumelela khona.
Ɖeɖi te Fia la kple eŋumewo katã ŋu azɔ, esime woɖo Bahurim ale wotɔ ɖe afi ma hegbɔ ɖe eme sẽe.
15 UAbisalomu labantu bonke, amadoda akoIsrayeli, basebefika eJerusalema, loAhithofeli elaye.
Le ɣeyiɣi sia me la, Absalom kple Israelviwo va ɖo Yerusalem; Ahitofel hã nɔ wo ŋu.
16 Kwasekusithi lapho uHushayi umArki, umngane kaDavida, esefike kuAbisalomu, uHushayi wathi kuAbisalomu: Kayiphile inkosi! Kayiphile inkosi!
Esi David xɔlɔ̃, Husai, Arkitɔ la va ɖo la, eyi Absalom gbɔ enumake eye wòdo gbe nɛ be, “Fia nenɔ agbe tegbee. Fia nenɔ agbe tegbee!”
17 UAbisalomu wasesithi kuHushayi: Yiwo umusa wakho kumngane wakho yini? Kungani ungahambanga lomngane wakho?
Absalom biae be, “Aleae nàwɔ ɖe xɔwò, David ŋue nye sia? Nu ka ta mègale egbɔ o?”
18 UHushayi wasesithi kuAbisalomu: Hatshi, kodwa lowo emkhethayo iNkosi, lalababantu, lawo wonke amadoda akoIsrayeli, ngizakuba ngowakhe, njalo ngihlale laye.
Husai ɖo eŋu na Absalom be, “Elabena ame si Yehowa kple Israel tia lae mewɔa dɔ na.
19 Ngokwesibili, mina ngizakhonza bani? Kungabi phambi kobuso bendodana yakhe na? Njengoba ngakhonza phambi kukayihlo, ngokunjalo ngizakuba phambi kwakho.
Nu ka ta nyemawɔ nenema o? Mekpe ɖe fofowò ŋu. Azɔ la, makpe ɖe ŋuwò.”
20 UAbisalomu wasesithi kuAhithofeli: Phanini iseluleko senu ukuthi sizakwenza njani?
Absalom trɔ ɖe Ahitofel gbɔ eye wòbiae be, “Nu ka magawɔ azɔ?”
21 UAhithofeli wasesithi kuAbisalomu: Ngena kubafazi abancane bakayihlo abatshiye ukulinda indlu; loIsrayeli wonke uzakuzwa ukuthi ulevumba kuyihlo; khona izandla zabo bonke abalawe zizaqina.
Ahitofel ɖo eŋu na Absalom be, “Yi nàdɔ fofowò ƒe ahiãviwo gbɔ elabena egblẽ wo ɖe afi sia be woakpɔ fiasã la dzi. Ekema Israel blibo la anya be, èdo vlo fofowò ale gbegbe be ame aɖeke magate ŋu adzra mia dome ɖo o. Ekema ame sia ame adze yowòme.”
22 Basebemendlalela uAbisalomu ithente phezu kophahla; uAbisalomu wasengena kubafazi abancane bakayise phambi kwamehlo kaIsrayeli wonke.
Ale wotu agbadɔ aɖe ɖe fiasã la ƒe xɔta ƒe gbadzaƒe, afi si ame sia ame ate ŋu akpɔ nu le. Absalom yina ɖadɔa fofoa ƒe ahiãviwo gbɔ le agbadɔ la me le Israel blibo la ŋkume.
23 Iseluleko sikaAhithofeli aseluleka ngalezonsuku sasinjengomuntu ebuza ilizwi likaNkulunkulu; sasinjalo sonke iseluleko sikaAhithofeli kubo bobabili uDavida loAbisalomu.
Le ŋkeke mawo me la, Ahitofel ƒe aɖaŋu si wòɖona la nɔna abe Mawu gbɔe wobia gbe le ene, ale David kple Absalom siaa dea bubu Ahitofel ƒe aɖaŋuɖoɖowo ŋu.
