Mgbe Devid gafechara elu ugwu ahụ na-agbada nʼakụkụ nke ọzọ ya, Ziba, onye na-elekọta akụ Mefiboshet, guzo na-eche ya. Ọ chị ịnyịnya ibu bu narị ogbe achịcha abụọ, na otu narị ụyọkọ mkpụrụ vaịnị a mịkpọrọ amịkpọ na narị ụyọkọ mkpụrụ osisi ndị ọzọ, na karama akpụkpọ buru ibu mmanya juru nʼime ya.
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.
Eze jụrụ Ziba sị, “Gịnị mere i ji bute ihe ndị a?” Ziba zara sị, “Ịnyịnya ibu ndị a bụ nke ndị ụlọeze ga-anọkwasị. Achịcha na mkpụrụ osisi ndị a bụ nke ndị ikom gị ga-eri. Mmanya a bụ nke ndị na-ada mba nʼọzara ga-aṅụ.”
3 Inkosi yasisithi: Pho, ingaphi indodana yenkosi yakho? UZiba wasesithi enkosini: Khangela, uhlezi eJerusalema, ngoba uthe: Lamuhla uIsrayeli uzabuyisela kimi umbuso kababa.

4 Inkosi yasisithi kuZiba: Khangela, ngokwakho konke okukaMefiboshethi. UZiba wasesithi: Ngiyakhothama; kangithole umusa emehlweni akho, nkosi yami, nkosi.
Eze gwara Ziba sị ya, “Nʼihi ya, enyela m gị ihe niile Mefiboshet nwere, ha ga-abụkwa nke gị.” Ziba sịrị, “Ka m hụta amara nʼihu eze, bụ onyenwe m.”
5 Kwathi inkosi uDavida ifika eBahurimi, khangela, kwaphuma khona umuntu wosendo lwendlu kaSawuli, obizo lakhe linguShimeyi indodana kaGera; waphuma, ehamba ethuka.
Dịka eze bụ Devid na-abịaru obodo Bahurim, lee, otu nwoke sitere nʼagbụrụ ụlọ Sọl sitere nʼebe ahụ pụta. Ọ bụ Shimei nwa Gera. Ọ na-akọcha mgbe ọ na-apụta ya.
6 Wasejikijela uDavida ngamatshe kanye lenceku zonke zenkosi uDavida, labo bonke abantu lamaqhawe wonke ngakwesokunene sakhe langakwesokhohlo sakhe.
Ọ chịịrị nkume na-atụ Devid na ndị ozi eze niile. Ọ bụ ezie na ndị agha Izrel na ndị na-eche Devid nche gbara ya gburugburu nʼaka nri na aka ekpe.
7 Wasesitsho njalo uShimeyi ekuthukeni kwakhe: Phuma, phuma, muntu wegazi, muntu kaBheliyali!
Ma dịka Shimei na-akọcha, ọ sịrị, “Si nʼebe a pụọ, si nʼebe a pụọ, gị ogbu mmadụ, gị onye ọjọọ!
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.
Onyenwe anyị akwụghachila gị ụgwọ ọbara niile ị wụsiri nʼezinaụlọ Sọl, onye ị nọchiri ọnọdụ ya dịka eze. Onyenwe anyị anapụla gị alaeze ahụ, were ya nye Absalọm nwa gị! Ugbu a, ihe i metara abịala gị ụgwọ, gị ogbu mmadụ.”
9 UAbishayi indodana kaZeruya wasesithi enkosini: Linja efileyo iyithukelani inkosi yami, inkosi? Ake ngedlule ngisuse ikhanda layo.
Abishai, nwa Zeruaya gwara eze okwu sị, “Nʼihi gịnị ka nkịta a nwụrụ anwụ ga-eji na-akọcha onyenwe m bụ eze? Biko, ka m gafee gaa bipụ ya isi.”
10 Kodwa inkosi yathi: Ngilani lani, madodana kaZeruya? Ngakho kathuke, ngoba iNkosi ithe kuye: Thuka uDavida; pho, ngubani ozakuthi: Wenzeleni njalo?
Ma eze zara sị, “Gịnị jikọrọ mụ na unu, unu ụmụ ndị ikom Zeruaya. Ọ bụrụ na ọ na-akọcha m nʼihi na Onyenwe anyị sị ya ‘Kọchaa Devid,’ onye pụrụ ịjụ ajụjụ sị, ‘Gịnị mere ị ji na-eme ihe dị otu a?’”
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.
Mgbe ahụ, Devid gwara Abishai na ndị ozi ya okwu sị, “Nwa m nwoke, onye si nʼahụ m na-agbalị ịnapụ m ndụ m. Gịnị ga-eme ka onye Benjamin a ghara ime karịa? Hapụ ya, ya kọchaa, nʼihi na Onyenwe anyị agwala ya ka ọ kọchaa m.
12 Mhlawumbe iNkosi izabona usizi lwami, iNkosi ingibuyisele okuhle esikhundleni sokuthuka kwakhe lamuhla.
Ma eleghị anya, Onyenwe anyị ga-ahụ ọnọdụ ahụhụ m, nyeghachikwa m ngọzị nʼọnọdụ nkọcha ndị a.”
13 UDavida labantu bakhe basebehamba ngendlela; loShimeyi ehamba eceleni kwentaba maqondana laye, ehamba ethuka, emjikijela ngamatshe, emthela ngothuli.
Ya mere, Devid na ndị ya gakwara nʼihu ije ha nʼụzọ ahụ ma Shimei sokwara ha na-aga nʼakụkụ ugwu ahụ na-akọcha ha. Ọ nọgidekwara na-atụ Devid nkume, na-ekpolikwa aja elu ka ọ na-awụsa ha nʼahụ.
14 Inkosi labo bonke abantu ababelayo bafika sebekhathele; yasihlumelela khona.
Ya mere, eze na ndị niile so ya gagidere bịaruo nʼakụkụ Jọdan nʼọnọdụ ike ọgwụgwụ. Nʼihi ya, ha nọdụrụ nʼebe ahụ zuo ike.
15 UAbisalomu labantu bonke, amadoda akoIsrayeli, basebefika eJerusalema, loAhithofeli elaye.
Ma Absalọm na ndị Izrel abatalarị Jerusalem. Ahitofel sokwa ya.
16 Kwasekusithi lapho uHushayi umArki, umngane kaDavida, esefike kuAbisalomu, uHushayi wathi kuAbisalomu: Kayiphile inkosi! Kayiphile inkosi!
Mgbe Hushaị, enyi Devid, onye Akai bịaruru, ọ gara hụ Absalọm sị ya, “Ka eze dị ogologo ndụ, ka eze dị ndụ.”
17 UAbisalomu wasesithi kuHushayi: Yiwo umusa wakho kumngane wakho yini? Kungani ungahambanga lomngane wakho?
Absalọm sịrị Hushaị, “Ọ bụ otu a ka i si egosi ịhụnanya i nwere na-ebe enyi gị nọ? Gịnị mere i soghị ya?”
18 UHushayi wasesithi kuAbisalomu: Hatshi, kodwa lowo emkhethayo iNkosi, lalababantu, lawo wonke amadoda akoIsrayeli, ngizakuba ngowakhe, njalo ngihlale laye.
Hushaị zara Absalọm sị, “Mba! Onye ahụ Onyenwe anyị na ọha mmadụ na ndị Izrel niile họpụtara, nke onye ahụ ka m ga-abụ. Ọ bụkwa onye ahụ ka m ga-adịnyere.
19 Ngokwesibili, mina ngizakhonza bani? Kungabi phambi kobuso bendodana yakhe na? Njengoba ngakhonza phambi kukayihlo, ngokunjalo ngizakuba phambi kwakho.
Ma onye kwanụ ka m kwesiri ijere ozi? Ọ bụghị nwa eze? Ejeere m nna gị ozi, ugbu a anọkwa m jikere ijere gị ozi!”
20 UAbisalomu wasesithi kuAhithofeli: Phanini iseluleko senu ukuthi sizakwenza njani?
Absalọm tụgharịrị gwa Ahitofel okwu sị, “Gịnị ọzọ ka m ga-eme? Nye anyị ndụmọdụ gị. Gịnị ka anyị kwesiri ime?”
21 UAhithofeli wasesithi kuAbisalomu: Ngena kubafazi abancane bakayihlo abatshiye ukulinda indlu; loIsrayeli wonke uzakuzwa ukuthi ulevumba kuyihlo; khona izandla zabo bonke abalawe zizaqina.
Ahitofel zara, “Ga dinaa ndị iko nwanyị nna gị ndị ahụ ọ hapụrụ ka ha lekọtaa ụlọ. Mgbe ahụ, Izrel niile ga-anụ na ị meela onwe gị ihe na-asọ oyi nʼebe nna gị nọ, aka ndị niile nọnyere gị ga-akwụkwa chịm.”
22 Basebemendlalela uAbisalomu ithente phezu kophahla; uAbisalomu wasengena kubafazi abancane bakayise phambi kwamehlo kaIsrayeli wonke.
Ya mere, ha manyeere Absalọm ụlọ ikwu nʼelu ụlọ; ọ kpọkwaara ndị iko nwanyị nna ya dinaa ha nʼotu nʼotu, nʼihu ndị Izrel niile.
23 Iseluleko sikaAhithofeli aseluleka ngalezonsuku sasinjengomuntu ebuza ilizwi likaNkulunkulu; sasinjalo sonke iseluleko sikaAhithofeli kubo bobabili uDavida loAbisalomu.
Nʼoge ahụ, ndụmọdụ ọbụla Ahitofel dụrụ dị ka a ga-asị na ọ bụ ozi si nʼọnụ Chineke nʼonwe ya bịa. Ọ bụladị nʼebe Devid nọ, na nʼebe Absalọm nọkwa, otu a ka esi bulie ndụmọdụ ọbụla Ahitofel nyere elu.
