1 UDavida wasebala abantu ababelaye, wabeka phezu kwabo izinduna zezinkulungwane lenduna zamakhulu.
Niahe’ i Davide amy zao ondaty nindre ama’eo, vaho najado’e am’ iereo ty mpifelek’ arivo naho mpifehe zato.
2 UDavida wasethuma ingxenye yesithathu yabantu ngaphansi kwesandla sikaJowabi, lengxenye yesithathu ngaphansi kwesandla sikaAbishayi indodana kaZeruya, umfowabo kaJowabi, lengxenye yesithathu ngaphansi kwesandla sikaIthayi umGiti. Inkosi yasisithi ebantwini: Lami ngizaphuma lokuphuma kanye lani.
Nirahe’ i Davide mb’eo, am-banem-pità’ Ioabe, ty fahatelo’ ondatio naho ambanem-pità’ i Abisaý ana’ i Tseroia rahalahi’ Ioabe ty faha­telo’e vaho ambanem-pità’ Itaie nte-Gate ty faha­telo’e. Le hoe i mpanjakay am’on­datio, toe hindre hionjo ama’ areo ka iraho.
3 Kodwa abantu bathi: Kawuyikuphuma. Ngoba uba sibaleka lokubaleka, kabayikusinaka; kumbe uba kusifa ingxenye yethu, kabayikuba landaba lathi. Kanti khathesi wena ulingana lenkulungwane ezilitshumi zethu; ngakho-ke kungcono ukuthi ube lusizo lwethu usemzini.
Fe hoe ondatio: Tsy hionjo mb’eo irehe, amy te tsy hahoa’ iereo te zahay ro hitriban-day añe, aa ndra te mivetrake ty vaki’ay, tsy ho haoñe’ iereo; fa mañeva ty rai-ale ama’ay irehe: ie amy zao hàmake te zahay ro hampionjone’o hiakatse ty rova toy.
4 Inkosi yasisithi kibo: Lokho okulungileyo emehlweni enu ngizakwenza. Inkosi yasisima eceleni kwesango; bonke abantu basebephuma ngamakhulu langezinkulungwane.
Le hoe i mpanjakay am’ iereo: Hanoeko arè ze atao’ areo hahasoa. Aa le nijohañe añ’ ila’ ty lalambey re vaho niavotse mb’eo ki-zato’e naho ki-arivo’e ondatio.
5 Inkosi yasibalaya oJowabi loAbishayi loIthayi, isithi: Liliphathe kahle ijaha, uAbisalomu, ngenxa yami. Njalo bonke abantu bezwa lapho inkosi ilaya zonke izinduna indaba kaAbisalomu.
Le linili’ i mpanja­kay t’Ioabe naho i Abisaý vaho Itaie ami’ty hoe: Ehe ano’ areo mora ty amako i ajalahiy, i Absalome. Songa jinanji’ ondatio ty namantoha’ i mpanjakay i mpifehe rey ty amy Absalome.
6 Abantu basebephumela egangeni ukuyakulwa bemelene loIsrayeli; njalo impi yayiseguswini lakoEfrayimi.
Aa le nipara­tsake añe ondatio hiatreatre am’ Israele; vaho tañ’ ala’ i Efraime ao i hotakotakey.
7 Abantu bakoIsrayeli basebetshaywa lapho phambi kwenceku zikaDavida, kwasekusiba khona ukubulala okukhulu ngalolosuku - abayizinkulungwane ezingamatshumi amabili.
Zinevoñ’ añatrefa’ o mpitoro’ i Davideo o ana’ Israeleo, le akore ty fanjamanañe amy andro zay kanao lahilahy ro’ale ty nivetrake.
8 Ngoba impi yahlakazeka khona ebusweni belizwe lonke, njalo igusu ladla abantu abanengi ngalolosuku okwedlula labo inkemba eyabadlayo.
Fa niparaitak’ amy tane iabiy i hotakotakey vaho maro ty nabotse’ i alay te amy fibaray.
9 UAbisalomu wasehlangana lenceku zikaDavida. Njalo uAbisalomu wayegade imbongolo; kwathi imbongolo ifika ngaphansi kwengatsha ezihlangeneyo zesihlahla se-okhi elikhulu, ikhanda lakhe laselibambelela esihlahleni se-okhi; waselenga phakathi kwamazulu lomhlaba, njalo imbongolo engaphansi kwakhe yedlula.
Ie nifanojo amo mpitoro’ i Davideo t’i Absalome, le niningitse amy borìke’ey t’i Absalome, naho nimb’ ambane’ ty tsampan-kobaiñe jabajaba mb’eo i borìkey, naho nazi’ i kobaiñey ty añambone’e, naho naonjo’e añi­von-dike­rañey naho ty tane toy vaho nitolom-pilay mb’eo i borìke tambane’ey.
10 Umuntu othile wasebona, watshela uJowabi wathi: Khangela, ngibone uAbisalomu elenga esihlahleni se-okhi.
Niisa’ t’indaty Izay le nitalily am’ Ioabe, ty hoe: Inao! nitreako niradorado ami’ ty kobaiñe t’i Absalome.
11 UJowabi wasesithi kulowomuntu omtshelayo: Khangela-ke, umbonile, kungani-ke ungamtshayelanga emhlabathini khonapho? Bengizakunika inhlamvu ezilitshumi zesiliva lebhanti elilodwa.
Le hoe t’Ioabe amy lahilahy nitalily azey: Aa ihe nahaisak’ azey: akore t’ie tsy linafa’o mb’an-tane? fa ho nitolorako volafoty folo reke-piètse.
12 Kodwa lowomuntu wathi kuJowabi: Loba bengingemukela ezandleni zami inhlamvu eziyinkulungwane zesiliva, bengingayikwelulela isandla sami endodaneni yenkosi, ngoba ezindlebeni zethu inkosi yakulaya wena loAbishayi loIthayi isithi: Nanzelelani, loba ngubani, angathinti ijaha uAbisalomu.
Fe hoe indatiy am’ Ioabe: Ndra te ho nandrambe volafoty arivo an-tañako, tsy ho nahitiko mb’amy ana-dahi’ i mpanjakaiy ty tañako, fa am-pijanjiña’ay ty namantoha’ i mpanjakay ama’o naho amy Abisaý vaho am’ Itaie ty hoe: Mitaoa hera eo ty hitsapa i ajalahy Absalomey.
13 Uba bengenze inkohliso ngempilo yami, ngoba kakulalutho olucatshela inkosi, lawe ubuzazimisa umelene lami.
Aa le ho nanoeko afero mamitak’ ate ty vatako, ie tsy ietahañe amy mpanjakay, le ihe ka ho niatreatre ahy.
14 UJowabi wasesithi: Kangiyikulibala ngokunjalo lawe. Wasethatha imikhonto emithathu esandleni sakhe, wamgwaza uAbisalomu enhliziyweni esaphila, phakathi kwesihlahla se-okhi.
Aa le hoe t’Ioabe: Tsy hihene­kenek’ ama’o atoy iraho. Le ninday ana-pale telo am-pità’e vaho natrofa’e añ’ arofo’ i Absalome, ie mbe niveloñe amy kobaiñey.
15 Njalo amajaha alitshumi ayethwala izikhali zikaJowabi, amzingelezela amtshaya uAbisalomu ambulala.
Niarikoboñe aze amy zao ty ajalahy folo mpi­tàm-pikala’ Ioabe, naho linafa’ iareo t’i Absalome, toe navetra’ iareo.
16 UJowabi wasevuthela uphondo, abantu basebebuya ekuxotshaneni loIsrayeli, ngoba uJowabi wabamisa abantu.
Aa le pinopò’ Ioabe i antsivay, vaho nibalik’ ami’ty fañoridañañe Israele ondatio; nitana’ Ioabe ondatio.
17 Basebemthatha uAbisalomu, bamphosela emgodini omkhulu eguswini, babeka phezu kwakhe inqwaba enkulu kakhulu yamatshe; uIsrayeli wonke wasebaleka, ngulowo lalowo waya ethenteni lakhe.
Rinambe’ iareo t’i Absalome naho navokovoko ami’ty koboñe jabajaba añ’ala ao le nampitoabora’ iareo ty votrem-bato folo-ay vaho songa nitriban-day mb’an-kibo­ho’e mb’eo t’Israele.
18 UAbisalomu esaphila wayethethe wazimisela insika esesigodini senkosi, ngoba wathi: Angilandodana yokwenza ukuthi ibizo lami likhunjulwe. Wabiza leyonsika ngebizo lakhe. Yabizwa ngokuthi, isikhumbuzo sikaAbisalomu, kuze kube lamuhla.
Natroa’ i Absalome, ie mbe niveloñe, ty vatolahy añ’ ala-vondrom-panjaka ao ho am-bata’e, ami’ty hoe: Tsy manañe anadahy iraho hitiahiañe ty añarako; vaho nitokave’e ami’ty añara’e i vatoy; le atao ty hoe Vatolahi’ i Absalome pak’ androany.
19 UAhimahazi indodana kaZadoki wasesithi: Ake ngigijime, ngiyibikele inkosi ukuthi iNkosi iyiphindisele esandleni sezitha zayo.
Aa le hoe t’i Akimatse ana’ i Tsa­doke: Angao hilaisako hitalily amy mpanjakay, te vinale’ Iehovà fate o rafelahi’eo.
20 Kodwa uJowabi wathi kuye: Kawusumbiki wendaba lamuhla, kodwa uzazibika izindaba ngolunye usuku; lamuhla kawuyikubika izindaba, ngenxa yokuthi indodana yenkosi ifile.
Le hoe t’Ioabe ama’e: Tsy hinday talily irehe te anito, fa andro hafa ty hindesa’o talily; kanao nihomake ty ana-dahi’ i mpanjakay tsy ho talilie’o te anito.
21 UJowabi wasesithi kumKhushi: Hamba uyebikela inkosi okubonileyo. UmKhushi wamkhothamela uJowabi, wagijima.
Aa le hoe t’Ioabe amy nte-Kosiy: Akia, atalilio amy mpanjakay o niisa’oo. Niondrek’ amy Ioabe i nte-Kosiy vaho nihitrihitry mb’eo.
22 UAhimahazi indodana kaZadoki wabuya wasephinda wathi kuJowabi: Loba kunjani, ake ngigijime lami ngimlandele umKhushi. Kodwa uJowabi wathi: Uzagijimelani, mntanami, lokhu ungelambiko ongawuletha?
Le hoe t’i natovo’ i Akimatse ana’ i Tsa­doke am’ Ioabe: Ndra te ino ty hifetsake, miambane ama’o, ehe adono hañeañe i Kosiy iraho. Le hoe t’Ioabe: Ino ty hilaisa’o, anako, ihe tsy handrambe tambe amy taliliy?
23 Kodwa loba kunjani, kangigijime. Wasesithi kuye: Gijima. Wasegijima uAhimahazi ngendlela yemagcekeni, wamdlula umKhushi.
Ndra ino ty hizò, hoe re, Hilay iraho. Le hoe re ama’e: Milaisa. Aa le nihere­reake mb’ amontoñe t’i Akimatse vaho nilosore’e i nte-Kosiy.
24 UDavida wayehlezi-ke phakathi kwamasango womabili; umlindi wasesiya ephahleni lwesango emdulini, waphakamisa amehlo akhe, wabona, khangela-ke, umuntu egijima yedwa.
Ie amy zao, niambesatse añivo’ ty lalambey roe eo t’i Davide; le ie nanganike mb’ an-tafon-dalambey ambone’ i kijoliy mb’eo ty mpijilo naho nampiandra fihaino naho nitalake, le naheo’e te ingo ty lahilahy milay mb’eo ie raike.
25 Umlindi wasememeza watshela inkosi. Yasisithi inkosi: Uba eyedwa ulombiko emlonyeni wakhe. Wasehamba weza esondela.
Nikaik’ amy zao i mpijiloy, nitalily amy mpanjakay: Le hoe i mpanjakay: Kanao mirery re, minday talily am-palie. Aa le niharine mb’eo re.
26 Umlindi wasebona omunye umuntu egijima; umlindi wabiza umlindisango wathi: Khangela, omunye umuntu ugijima yedwa. Inkosi yasisithi: Laye lo uletha izindaba.
Nahaisake mpihitrihitry raike ka i mpijiloy: le nikaihe’e ty hoe i mpigarin-dalañey: Heheke ondaty raike ka ty mihitrike mb’etoa. Le hoe i mpanjakay: Minday talily ka re.
27 Umlindi wasesithi: Ngibona ukugijima kowokuqala kunjengokugijima kukaAhimahazi indodana kaZadoki. Inkosi yasisithi: Lo ngumuntu olungileyo, uza lendaba ezinhle.
Le hoe i mpijiloy: Ataoko ho filaisa’ i Akimatse ana’ i Tsadoke i miaoloy. Le hoe i mpanjakay: Ondaty mora minday talily soa izay.
28 UAhimahazi wasememeza wathi enkosini: Ukuthula! Wasekhothamela inkosi ngobuso bakhe emhlabathini wathi: Kayibusiswe iNkosi, uNkulunkulu wakho, enikele abantu abaphakamisa isandla sabo enkosini yami, inkosi.
Nikoike t’i Akimatse, le hoe re amy mpanjakay, Tsy mañahy. Le nidrakadrakak’ añatrefa’ i mpanjakay re nanao ty hoe: Andriañeñe abey t’Iehovà Andrianañahare’o, i nampilesa ondaty nañonjo-haok’ amy talèko mpanjakaio.
29 Inkosi yasisithi: Kuhle yini ngejaha, ngoAbisalomu? UAhimahazi wasesithi: Ngibone isiphithiphithi esikhulu lapho uJowabi ethuma inceku yenkosi lenceku yakho, kodwa kangazanga ukuthi kuyini.
Le hoe i mpanjakay: Mbe tsy mañahy hao i ajalahy Absalomey? Le hoe ty natoi’ i Akimatse: Ie nañitrike o mpitoro’oo t’Ioabe, le nahatrea fivoamboan-dra’elahy iraho fa tsy apotako ty tali’e.
30 Inkosi yasisithi: Buyela eceleni, ume lapho. Wasebuyela eceleni wema.
Le hoe i mpanjakay, Misitsira mb’etoa, le mijohaña ey. Aa le niveve re, nijohañe.
31 Khangela-ke, umKhushi wafika, umKhushi wathi: Yemukela imibiko, nkosi yami, nkosi! Ngoba iNkosi ikuphindisele lamuhla esandleni salabo bonke abakuvukelayo.
Ingo te niheo mb’eo amy zao i nte-Kosiy; le hoe i nte-Kosiy: Talily ho a i talèko mpanjakay; fa vinale’ Iehovà fate ty azo anindroany amo nitroatse ama’o iabio.
32 Inkosi yasisithi kumKhushi: Kuhle yini ngejaha, ngoAbisalomu? UmKhushi wasesithi: Kungathi izitha zenkosi yami, inkosi, labo bonke abakuvukelayo ngobubi bangaba njengalelojaha.
Le hoe i mpanjakay amy Kosiy: Mbe janga hao i ajalahi’ Absalomey?’ Aa hoe ty natoi’ i Kosy: Ee te hanahake i ajalahiy ze hene rafelahi’ i talèko mpanjakay naho ze miatreatre azo hijoy.
33 Yasikhathazeka kakhulu inkosi, yenyukela endlini ephezulu yesango, yakhala inyembezi, isahamba yakhuluma kanje: Ndodana yami Abisalomu, ndodana yami, ndodana yami, Abisalomu! Kungathi ngabe kufe mina endaweni yakho, Abisalomu, ndodana yami, ndodana yami!
Nininininy amy zao i mpanjakay vaho nañambone mb’ an-traño ambone’ i lalañey mb’eo nirovetse, le nanao ty hoe t’ie nimb’eo: O Absalome anako, tiriko, o Absalome anako! ee te izaho ty nisolom-pihomake ho azo ry Absalome amoriko, anako!
