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!
In pacl se inge oasr sie mwet lusrongten in acn Gilgal — inel pa Sheba wen natul Bikri, ac el ma in sruf lal Benjamin. El ukya mwe ukuk ac wowoyak ac fahk, “Sisella David! Kut ac tia welul! Mwet Israel nukewa, kut som nu yen sesr ah!”
2 Ngakho wonke umuntu wakoIsrayeli wenyuka wasuka emva kukaDavida, elandela uShebha indodana kaBikiri; kodwa abantu bakoJuda banamathela enkosini yabo, kusukela eJordani kwaze kwaba seJerusalema.
Ouinge mwet Israel elos sisella David, ac welulla Sheba. A mwet Judah elos insese na yorol David, ac elos welul fahla Infacl Jordan lac nu Jerusalem.
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.
Ke David el tuku nu lohm sin tokosra in acn Jerusalem, el orani mutan kulansap singoul kial ma el tuh filiya in liyaung inkul sel ah, ac eisalosyang nu inpoun mwet topang uh. El sang enenu lalos, tuh el tia oan yorolos. Elos muta kaul ac moul oana mutan katinmas ke lusen moul lalos.
4 Inkosi yasisithi kuAmasa: Biza abantu bakoJuda babuthane kimi ngensuku ezintathu, lawe ube khona lapha.
Ac tokosra el fahk nu sel Amasa, “Pangoneni mwet Judah ac welulos foloko nu inse inge ulela.”
5 UAmasa wasehamba ukubuthanisa uJuda, kodwa waphuza phezu kwesikhathi esimisiweyo ayemmisele sona.
Amasa el som in pangnolos, tuh el tia foloko ke pacl se tokosra el tuh fahk nu sel ah.
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.
Na tokosra el fahk nu sel Abishai, “Sheba el ac orek lokoalok nu sesr yohk lukel Absalom. Us mwet luk an ac fahsrot ukwal, elan ma tia utyak nu in siti oasr pot ku we pwanang kut ac kofla sruokilya.”
7 Kwasekuphuma emva kwakhe amadoda kaJowabi lamaKerethi lamaPelethi lamaqhawe wonke, basebephuma eJerusalema ukuxotshana loShebha indodana kaBikiri.
Ke ma inge, mwet lal Joab ac mwet topang oayapa mwet mweun nukewa saya, elos welul Abishai som liki acn Jerusalem in ukwal Sheba.
8 Sebeselitsheni elikhulu eliseGibeyoni, uAmasa weza phambi kwabo. UJowabi wayebhince isigqoko ayesigqokile, laphezu kwaso kulebhanti elilenkemba ebotshelwe ekhalweni lwakhe isesikhwameni sayo; esaqhubeka inkemba yawa.
Ke elos sun eot lulap se in acn Gibeon, Amasa el sonolos. Joab el nukum nuknuk in mweun, ac cutlass se oan ke ma neinya sripsrip ke pel lal. Ke el fahsr nu meet, cutlass sac putatla.
9 UJowabi wasesithi kuAmasa: Uyaphila yini, mfowethu? UJowabi wasebamba uAmasa ngesilevu ngesandla sokunene ukuze amange.
Joab el fahk nu sel Amasa, “Ma lik, kom fuka?” ac el sruokya alut lal ah ke lac po layot tuh elan ngok mutal.
10 Kodwa uAmasa wayengayinanzeleli inkemba eyayisesandleni sikaJowabi; wasemtshaya ngayo kubambo lwesihlanu, wathululela imibilini yakhe emhlabathini, kamphindanga, wafa. UJowabi loAbishayi umfowabo basebexotshana loShebha indodana kaBikiri.
Amasa el tiana akola nu ke cutlass se ma Joab el sruokya ke lac paol lasa, na Joab el fakisya insial ac koanonsial raki nu infohk uh. Na el misa na insac, pwanang Joab el tia enenu in faksilya pacl luo. Na Joab ac Abishai tamulel lal, som in ukwal Sheba.
11 Omunye wamajaha kaJowabi wema phansi kwakhe, wathi: Omthandayo uJowabi, longokaDavida, landela uJowabi.
Sie sin mwet lal Joab ah tui ke manol Amasa ac wola fahk, “Mwet nukewa su ma lal Joab ac David, fahsr tokol Joab!”
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.
Manol Amasa afla ke srah ac oanna inkanek ah. Sie mwet lal Joab liye lah mwet uh fahsr tui ke mano sac, na el amakunla liki innek ah nu inimae, ac afinya ke kaot se.
13 Esesusiwe emgwaqweni omkhulu, bonke abantu badlula bamlandela uJowabi ukuze baxotshane loShebha indodana kaBikiri.
Tukun mano sac mokleyukla liki innek ah, na mwet nukewa fahsr tokol Joab in ukwal Sheba.
14 Wasedabula kuzo zonke izizwe zakoIsrayeli, waya eAbeli ngitsho iBeti-Mahaka, lawo wonke amaBeri; basebebuthana bamlandela labo.
Sheba el fahsr alukela acn sin sruf nukewa lun Israel, ac tuku nu ke siti Abel Beth Maacah, ac mwet nukewa in sou lal Bikri elos toeni ac fahsr tokol nu in siti uh.
15 Basebefika, bamgombolozela eAbeli-Beti-Mahaka; babuthelela idundulu maqondana lomuzi, lema emthangaleni; bonke abantu ababeloJowabi basebewona umduli ukuwuwisela phansi.
Mwet lal Joab elos lohng lah Sheba el oasr we, na elos fahsreni kuhlusya siti sac. Elos sang fohk musaeak nien fanyak lalos nu fin pot we, ac mutawauk in pikin ye pot uh in raki.
16 Kwasekumemeza owesifazana ohlakaniphileyo phakathi komuzi wathi: Zwanini, zwanini! Ake lithi kuJowabi: Sondela lapha, ukuze ngikhulume lawe.
Oasr mutan lalmwetmet se in siti sac, su wowoyak fin pot ah, ac fahk, “Koasrlong! Lohng! Sap Joab elan fahsru. Nga ke sramsram nu sel.”
17 Esesondele kuye, owesifazana wathi: Nguwe uJowabi yini? Yena wathi: Nginguye. Wasesithi kuye: Zwana amazwi encekukazi yakho. Wasesithi: Ngiyezwa.
Na Joab el som nu yorol, ac mutan sac siyuk, “Ku kom pa Joab?” Na Joab el fahk, “Aok, nga.” Na mutan sac fahk, “Lohng ma nga ac fahk uh.” Na Joab el fahk, “Nga ac lohng.”
18 Wasekhuluma esithi: Endulo babejwayele ukukhuluma besithi: Kababuze lokubuza eAbeli; basebeqeda ngokunjalo.
Mutan sac fahk, “Oasr kas se lun mwet in pacl somla fahk mu, ‘Fahla eis top lom an in siti lun Abel’ — na pa ingan ma elos tuh oru.
19 Ngingowabokuthula, owabathembekileyo bakoIsrayeli; udinga ukuchitha umuzi lonina koIsrayeli. Uginyelani ilifa leNkosi?
Siti se sesr inge siti na pwengpeng se. Yohk misla ac insese lasr nu sin tokosra lasr inmasrlon siti Israel nukewa. Efu kom ku srike in kunausla? Ku kom lungse akkolukyela ma lun LEUM GOD?”
20 UJowabi wasephendula wathi: Kakube khatshana, kakube khatshana lami ukuthi ngiginye loba ngichithe.
Na Joab el topuk, “Mo! Tiana ku! Nga tia ku in akkolukye ku kunausla siti lowos uh!
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.
Tia pa ingan ma kut akoo. Oasr sie mukul, inel pa Sheba wen natul Bikri, el tuku liki eol uh in facl Ephraim, ac el mutawauk sie alein lainul Tokosra David. Usalu mwet se ingan, na nga fah som liki siti lowos uh.” Na mutan sac fahk, “Kut ac sisot sifal fin pot uh wot nu sum.”
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.
Na el som nu yurin mwet in siti sac ac fahkak nunak lal nu selos, na elos pakela sifal Sheba ac sisla fin pot uh lac nu sel Joab. Joab el ukya mwe ukuk in akkalemye nu sin mwet lal elos in som liki siti uh, na elos folokla nu yen selos. Ac Joab el folokla nu Jerusalem nu yorol tokosra.
23 Njalo uJowabi wayephezu kwebutho lonke lakoIsrayeli; loBhenaya indodana kaJehoyada wayephezu kwamaKerethi laphezu kwamaPelethi;
Joab el captain lun un mwet mweun lun Israel. Benaiah wen natul Jehoiada, pa liyaung un mwet topang lal David.
24 loAdoniramu wayephezu kwezibhalwa; loJehoshafathi indodana kaAhiludi wayengumabhalane;
Adoniram pa liyaung orekma lun mwet kohs. Jehoshaphat wen natul Ahilud, pa karinganang ma simla.
25 loSheva wayengumbhali; loZadoki loAbhiyatha babengabapristi;
Sheva pa mwet sim inkul lun tokosra. Zadok ac Abiathar pa mwet tol.
26 loIra laye umJayiri wayengumpristi kaDavida.
Ac Ira, sie mwet liki siti Jair, el oayapa sie sin mwet tol lal David.
