2 USamuyeli 4
1 Lapho isizwile indodana kaSawuli ukuthi uAbhineri ufele eHebroni, izandla zakhe zaba buthakathaka, loIsrayeli wonke wakhathazeka.
Sa’ad da Ish-Boshet ya ji labari cewa Abner ya mutu a Hebron, sai ya karaya, sai dukan hankalin Isra’ila ya tashi.
2 Njalo indodana kaSawuli yayilamadoda amabili ayeyizinduna zamaviyo; ibizo lenye lalinguBahana, lebizo lenye linguRekabi, amadodana kaRimoni, umBherothi, wabantwana bakoBhenjamini. Ngoba iBherothi layo yayibalelwa koBhenjamini;
To, ɗan Shawulu yana da’ya’ya maza biyu da suke shugabannin’yan hari. Ana kiran ɗaya Ba’ana, ɗayan kuma Rekab. Su’ya’yan Rimmon mutumin Benyamin ne daga Beyerot, an lissafta Beyerot a ɓangaren Benyamin,
3 lamaBherothi abalekela eGithayimi, aba ngabahlali njengabezizwe khona kuze kube lamuhla.
domin mutanen Beyerot sun gudu zuwa Gittayim inda suke zaman baƙunci har wa yau.
4 UJonathani indodana kaSawuli wayelendodana eyayiyisilima enyaweni. Yayileminyaka emihlanu ekufikeni kombiko ngoSawuli loJonathani uvela eJizereyeli; lomlizane wayo wayithatha, wabaleka; kwasekusithi ekuphangiseni kwakhe ukubaleka, yawa yaba yisilima. Lebizo layo lalinguMefiboshethi.
(Yonatan ɗan Shawulu yana da ɗa mai suna Mefiboshet wanda yake gurgu a duka ƙafafu. Yana da shekara biyar ne sa’ad da labarin mutuwar Shawulu da Yonatan ya zo daga Yezireyel. Sai mai renonsa ta ɗauke shi ta gudu, amma yayinda take hanzari tă gudu, sai ya fāɗo, ya gurgunce.)
5 Lamadodana kaRimoni, umBherothi, uRekabi loBahana, ahamba, ekutshiseni kwelanga afika endlini kaIshiboshethi, owayelele embhedeni emini enkulu.
To, Rekab da Ba’ana,’ya’yan Rimmon mutumin Beyerot, suka tafi gidan Ish-Boshet, suka isa can da tsakar rana yayinda yake hutun tsakar rana.
6 Bona bangena endlini phakathi kungathi bathatha ingqoloyi, bamtshaya kubambo lwesihlanu; uRekabi loBahana umfowabo basebebaleka.
Suka shiga sashe na cikin gida sai ka ce suna so su ɗibo alkama ne, suka soke shi a ciki. Sa’an nan Rekab da Ba’ana ɗan’uwansa suka zame suka ɓace.
7 Ngoba bengena endlini, wayelele embhedeni wakhe endlini yakhe yokulala, bamtshaya, bambulala, bamquma ikhanda; bathatha ikhanda lakhe, bahamba ngendlela yamagceke ubusuku bonke.
Sun shiga gidan yayinda yake kwance a gado a ɗakin barcinsa. Bayan sun soke shi sai suka kashe shi, suka kuma datse kansa. Suka ɗauke shi, suka yi tafiya dukan dare suka bi ta Araba.
8 Basebelisa ikhanda likaIshiboshethi kuDavida eHebroni. Bathi enkosini: Khangela, ikhanda likaIshiboshethi indodana kaSawuli, isitha sakho ebesidinga impilo yakho; iNkosi inike impindiselo lamuhla enkosini yami, inkosi, kuSawuli lakuyo inzalo yakhe.
Suka kawo kan Ish-Boshet wa Dawuda a Hebron, suka ce wa sarki, “Ga kan Ish-Boshet ɗan Shawulu, maƙiyinka, wanda ya nemi yă kashe ka. A yau Ubangiji ya rama wa ranka yă daɗe sarki, a kan Shawulu da zuriyarsa.”
9 Kodwa uDavida wabaphendula uRekabi loBahana umfowabo, amadodana kaRimoni umBherothi, wathi kubo: Kuphila kukaJehova, ohlenge umphefumulo wami kuyo yonke inhlupheko,
Dawuda ya ce wa Rekab da ɗan’uwansa Ba’ana,’ya’yan Rimmon mutumin Beyerot, “Muddin Ubangiji yana a raye, wanda ya kuɓutar da ni daga wahala,
10 lapho owangibikelayo esithi: Khangela, uSawuli ufile; njalo enjengomthwali wendaba ezinhle emehlweni akhe, ngamxhakalaza, ngambulala eZikilagi, kulokuthi ngimvuzele indaba ezinhle.
sa’ad da wani mutum ya ce mini, ‘Shawulu ya mutu,’ yana tsammani ya kawo labari mai daɗi ne, na kama shi na kashe a Ziklag. Ladar da na ba shi ke nan saboda labarinsa!
11 Pho kangakanani, lapho abantu ababi bebulele umuntu olungileyo endlini yakhe esembhedeni wakhe; ngakho-ke angiyikubiza yini igazi lakhe esandleni senu, ngilisuse emhlabeni?
Balle fa, sa’ad da mugayen mutane suka kashe marar laifi a gidansa, a bisa gadonsa, ashe, ba zan nemi jininsa daga hannunku in kawar da ku a duniya ba!”
12 UDavida waselaya amajaha, ababulala, aquma izandla zabo lenyawo zabo, abaphanyeka echibini leHebroni. Kodwa athatha ikhanda likaIshiboshethi, alingcwaba engcwabeni likaAbhineri eHebroni.
Saboda haka Dawuda ya umarci mutanensa, suka kuwa kashe su. Suka yayyanka hannuwansu da ƙafafunsu, suka kuma rataye jikunansu kusa da tafki a Hebron. Amma suka ɗauki kan Ish-Boshet suka binne a kabarin Abner a Hebron.
