2 USamuyeli 20
1 Kwasekusenzakala ukuthi kube khona lapho umuntu kaBheliyali, obizo lakhe linguShebha indodana kaBikiri umBhenjamini; wasevuthela uphondo wathi: Kasilasabelo kuDavida, kasilalifa endodaneni kaJese; wonke umuntu emathenteni akhe, Israyeli!
Benjamin miphun Bikhri capa a min teh Sheba tie taran ka thaw e buet touh ao. Ahni ni mongka a ueng teh Oe Isarel miphun maimouh teh Devit koevah, buet touh hai coe hane tawn awh hoeh. Jesi capa koevah râw coe hane kamcu awh hoeh. Isarelnaw namamae rim koe lengkaleng cet awh telah atipouh.
2 Ngakho wonke umuntu wakoIsrayeli wenyuka wasuka emva kukaDavida, elandela uShebha indodana kaBikiri; kodwa abantu bakoJuda banamathela enkosini yabo, kusukela eJordani kwaze kwaba seJerusalema.
Isarelnaw ni Devit hnukkâbang awh hoeh toe. Bikhri capa Sheba hnuk a kâbang awh. Judahnaw ni Jordan hoi Jerusalem kho totouh siangpahrang koe a kâhnai awh.
3 UDavida wasefika endlini yakhe eJerusalema; inkosi yathatha abafazi abalitshumi, abafazi abancane, eyayibatshiye ukuze balinde indlu, yababeka endlini elindiweyo, yabanika ukudla, kodwa kayingenanga kubo. Basebevalelwa kwaze kwaba lusuku lokufa kwabo, bephila ebufelokazini.
Devit ni Jerusalem ama im a pha toteh, siangpahrang ni a yudo 10 touh im ka ring hanelah a hruek e hah a ceikhai teh, a paung. A canei kapoenaw ni canei kawi a poe awh ei teh, amamouh koe kâen awh hoeh. A due hnin totouh a paung awh teh lahmainaw patetlah ao awh.
4 Inkosi yasisithi kuAmasa: Biza abantu bakoJuda babuthane kimi ngensuku ezintathu, lawe ube khona lapha.
Siangpahrang ni Amasa koevah, hnin thum touh thung Judahnaw hah kamkhueng sak nateh, ahnimouh hoi rei na tho han telah atipouh.
5 UAmasa wasehamba ukubuthanisa uJuda, kodwa waphuza phezu kwesikhathi esimisiweyo ayemmisele sona.
Judahnaw kamkhueng sak hanelah Amasa teh a cei. Hatei, Devit teh a hnin a khoe e hlak hnuk a teng.
6 UDavida wasesithi kuAbishayi: Khathesi uShebha indodana kaBikiri uzasenzela okubi okwedlula uAbisalomu; wena thatha inceku zenkosi yakho, uxotshane laye, hlezi azitholele imizi ebiyelwe ngemithangala, asiphunyuke.
Devit ni Abishai koevah Bikhri capa Sheba ni Absalom hlak hai runae na poe han, na bawipa e sannaw kaw nateh ahnimanaw pâlei awh telah hoehpawiteh, ahni teh kacakpounge kho buetbuet touh kâen vaiteh, maimae kut dawk hoi a hlout han doeh telah Abishai koe a dei pouh.
7 Kwasekuphuma emva kwakhe amadoda kaJowabi lamaKerethi lamaPelethi lamaqhawe wonke, basebephuma eJerusalema ukuxotshana loShebha indodana kaBikiri.
Joab e taminaw Kereth tami, Phelet taminaw hoi tami a thakasainaw ni a hnukkâbang awh. Jerusalem hoi Bikhri capa Sheba pâlei hanelah a kamthaw awh.
8 Sebeselitsheni elikhulu eliseGibeyoni, uAmasa weza phambi kwabo. UJowabi wayebhince isigqoko ayesigqokile, laphezu kwaso kulebhanti elilenkemba ebotshelwe ekhalweni lwakhe isesikhwameni sayo; esaqhubeka inkemba yawa.
Gideon kho dawk e lungsong onae koe a pha awh toteh, Amasa ni ahnimanaw a dawn. Joab ni puengcang a kâmahrawk teh a keng dawk taisawm hoi tahloi a neng. A cei nalaihoi tahloi a yut teh a bo.
9 UJowabi wasesithi kuAmasa: Uyaphila yini, mfowethu? UJowabi wasebamba uAmasa ngesilevu ngesandla sokunene ukuze amange.
Joab ni Amasa koevah, ka nawngha na dam ou telah ati. Joab ni a kâsak teh a paco han a dei teh a pâkhamuen a rang lae kut hoi a kuet.
10 Kodwa uAmasa wayengayinanzeleli inkemba eyayisesandleni sikaJowabi; wasemtshaya ngayo kubambo lwesihlanu, wathululela imibilini yakhe emhlabathini, kamphindanga, wafa. UJowabi loAbishayi umfowabo basebexotshana loShebha indodana kaBikiri.
Joab ni avoilae kut dawk sarai a sin e hah Amasa ni a pouk hoeh dawkvah, a von dawk a thut pouh teh a ruen hah talai dawk a bo. Bout thun hoeh toe. Amasa teh a due. Joab hoi a nawngha Abishai ni Bikhri capa Sheba hah a pâlei roi.
11 Omunye wamajaha kaJowabi wema phansi kwakhe, wathi: Omthandayo uJowabi, longokaDavida, landela uJowabi.
Ahni e a teng Joab e tami buet touh a kangdue teh, Joab hoi Devit koelah ka kampang e pueng ni Joab heh pou ring naseh telah a ti.
12 UAmasa wasegiqika egazini phakathi komgwaqo omkhulu. Lapho lowomuntu ebona ukuthi bonke abantu bayema, wamsusa uAmasa emgwaqweni omkhulu wamusa egangeni, waphosela isembatho phezu kwakhe, lapho ebona ukuthi wonke ofika ngakuye wema.
Amasa teh lam dawkvah a thi hoi pukkâkaawk. Ka tho pueng ni a hmu awh teh a kangdue awh. Joab e tami ni taminaw a kangdue e a hmu awh toteh, Amasa e a ro hah lam dawk hoi a la awh teh, kahrawng vah a puen awh teh hni hoi a ramuk awh.
13 Esesusiwe emgwaqweni omkhulu, bonke abantu badlula bamlandela uJowabi ukuze baxotshane loShebha indodana kaBikiri.
Haw e lam dawk hoi a puen awh hnukkhu, Bikhri capa Sheba pâlei hanelah taminaw ni, Joab e hnuk a kâbang awh.
14 Wasedabula kuzo zonke izizwe zakoIsrayeli, waya eAbeli ngitsho iBeti-Mahaka, lawo wonke amaBeri; basebebuthana bamlandela labo.
Joab ni Bethmaakha ram Abel kho totouh Isarel ram pueng koe a cei. Bere taminaw koehai a cei teh taminaw a pâkhueng teh, Sheba hnuk a kâbang awh.
15 Basebefika, bamgombolozela eAbeli-Beti-Mahaka; babuthelela idundulu maqondana lomuzi, lema emthangaleni; bonke abantu ababeloJowabi basebewona umduli ukuwuwisela phansi.
Sheba a luennae Bethmaakha ram Abel kho hah a kalup awh. A kho teng vah talai avoivang lah a paten awh. Rapan raphoe hanelah thouk a phom awh.
16 Kwasekumemeza owesifazana ohlakaniphileyo phakathi komuzi wathi: Zwanini, zwanini! Ake lithi kuJowabi: Sondela lapha, ukuze ngikhulume lawe.
Hatnavah, a lungkaang e napui buet touh ni khothung hoi a hram teh a dei e teh, thai awh haw, thai awh. Kai ni Joab hoi lawk ka dei thai nahanelah tho loe telah Joab koe dei pouh awh telah a ti.
17 Esesondele kuye, owesifazana wathi: Nguwe uJowabi yini? Yena wathi: Nginguye. Wasesithi kuye: Zwana amazwi encekukazi yakho. Wasesithi: Ngiyezwa.
Joab rek a hnai teh napui ni nang hah Joab vai khe, telah a pacei. Oe kai doeh atipouh. Napui ni kaie lawk thai haw atipouh navah, Joab ni ka thai doeh telah atipouh.
18 Wasekhuluma esithi: Endulo babejwayele ukukhuluma besithi: Kababuze lokubuza eAbeli; basebeqeda ngokunjalo.
Ayan teh Abel kho vah kho a khang awh han rah, ouk ati awh. Hottelah laidei pou a tâtueng awh.
19 Ngingowabokuthula, owabathembekileyo bakoIsrayeli; udinga ukuchitha umuzi lonina koIsrayeli. Uginyelani ilifa leNkosi?
Kai teh Isarelnaw dawk roumnae ka ngai e hoi yuemkamcu e lah ka o. Nang teh Isarel kho koung raphoe hanelah na kâcai. Bangkongmaw BAWIPA e râw hah he pahma hanelah na kâcai telah a dei.
20 UJowabi wasephendula wathi: Kakube khatshana, kakube khatshana lami ukuthi ngiginye loba ngichithe.
Joab ni he pâhma hane, raphoe hane kâcainae awm hoeh bo.
21 Udaba kalunjalo; kodwa umuntu wasentabeni yakoEfrayimi, nguShebha indodana kaBikiri ibizo lakhe, uphakamisile isandla sakhe emelene lenkosi, emelene loDavida; nikelani yena kuphela, ngizasuka emzini. Owesifazana wasesithi kuJowabi: Khangela, ikhanda lakhe lizaphoselwa kuwe ngaphezu komduli.
Hottelah nahoeh bo, Ephraim mon dawk e Bikhri capa a min teh Sheba ni amae siangpahrang hah a taran toe. Ahni hah na poe awh haw. Na poe awh pawiteh kho dawk hoi ka tâco han telah ati. Napui ni Joab koevah, khenhaw! a lû teh rapan hloilah ka tâkhawng han telah a ti.
22 Owesifazana wasesiya ngenhlakanipho yakhe ebantwini bonke. Basebequma ikhanda likaShebha indodana kaBikiri, baliphosela kuJowabi. Wasevuthela uphondo, bahlakazeka besuka kulowomuzi, ngulowo lalowo waya emathenteni akhe. UJowabi wasebuyela eJerusalema enkosini.
Hote napui teh a lungang e patetlah taminaw koe a cei hnukkhu, Bikhri capa Sheba lû a tâtueng awh teh Joab koelah alawilah a tâkhawng pouh awh. Joab ni mongka a ueng teh taminaw teh hote kho dawk hoi amamouh onae koe bout a ban awh. Hahoi, Joab teh Jerusalem siangpahrang koe a ban.
23 Njalo uJowabi wayephezu kwebutho lonke lakoIsrayeli; loBhenaya indodana kaJehoyada wayephezu kwamaKerethi laphezu kwamaPelethi;
Joab teh Isarel ransanaw e ransabawi lah ao. Jehoiada capa Benaiah teh Kereth tami hoi Pelet taminaw kaukkung lah ao.
24 loAdoniramu wayephezu kwezibhalwa; loJehoshafathi indodana kaAhiludi wayengumabhalane;
Adoram teh tamuk thaw ka kuen e lah ao. Ahilud capa Jehoshaphat teh kamthang kathutkung lah ao.
25 loSheva wayengumbhali; loZadoki loAbhiyatha babengabapristi;
Sheva teh ca kathunkung lah ao. Zadok hoi Abiathar teh vaihma lah ao.
26 loIra laye umJayiri wayengumpristi kaDavida.
Jair tami teh Devit e ram kaukkung bawi lah ao.
