2 USamuyeli 4

1 Lapho isizwile indodana kaSawuli ukuthi uAbhineri ufele eHebroni, izandla zakhe zaba buthakathaka, loIsrayeli wonke wakhathazeka.

Iish-Booshet ilmi Saaʼol yommuu akka Abneer Kebroonitti ajjeefame dhagaʼetti humni isaa ni buʼe; Israaʼel hundis sodaan guutame.

2 Njalo indodana kaSawuli yayilamadoda amabili ayeyizinduna zamaviyo; ibizo lenye lalinguBahana, lebizo lenye linguRekabi, amadodana kaRimoni, umBherothi, wabantwana bakoBhenjamini. Ngoba iBherothi layo yayibalelwa koBhenjamini;

Yeroo sanatti Iish-Booshet ilmi Saaʼol dura buutota garee duultotaa lama qaba ture. Inni tokko Baʼanaa, kaan immoo Rekaab jedhama ture; isaanis ilmaan Rimoon namicha Biʼeeroot kan gosa Beniyaam sanaa ti; Biʼeeroot kun akka kutaa Beniyaamitti lakkaaʼama;

3 lamaBherothi abalekela eGithayimi, aba ngabahlali njengabezizwe khona kuze kube lamuhla.

namoonni Biʼeeroot kunneen gara Gitayimitti baqatanii hamma harʼaatti alagummaan achi jiraatuutii.

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.

Yoonaataan ilmi Saaʼol mucaa miilli isaa lachuu naafate tokko qaba ture. Yeroo oduun waaʼee Saaʼolii fi Yoonaataan Yizriʼeel irraa dhufetti inni nama waggaa shanii ture. Guddiftuun isaas isa fudhattee baqatte; garuu utuu isheen baqachuuf ariifattuu mucichi ishee irraa kufee naafate. Maqaan isaas Mefiibooshet jedhama ture.

5 Lamadodana kaRimoni, umBherothi, uRekabi loBahana, ahamba, ekutshiseni kwelanga afika endlini kaIshiboshethi, owayelele embhedeni emini enkulu.

Rekaabii fi Baʼanaan ilmaan Rimoon namicha gosa Biʼeeroot kaʼanii gara mana Iish-Boosheti qajeelan; yeroon isaan itti achi gaʼanis guyyaa saafaa yeroo inni itti aara galfatu ture.

6 Bona bangena endlini phakathi kungathi bathatha ingqoloyi, bamtshaya kubambo lwesihlanu; uRekabi loBahana umfowabo basebebaleka.

Isaanis akka nama qamadii barbaaduutti kutaa manaa isa gara keessaatti ol seenanii garaa isaa waraanan. Ergasiis Rekaabii fi obboleessi isaa Baʼanaan miliqanii baʼan.

7 Ngoba bengena endlini, wayelele embhedeni wakhe endlini yakhe yokulala, bamtshaya, bambulala, bamquma ikhanda; bathatha ikhanda lakhe, bahamba ngendlela yamagceke ubusuku bonke.

Isaanis utuu inni kutaa ciisichaa keessa siree isaa irra rafee jiruu ol seenan. Erga garaa isaa waraananii isa ajjeesanii booddees mataa isaa irraa kutan. Mataa sanas fuudhanii halkan guutuu daandii Arabbaa irra deemaa bulan.

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.

Isaanis Kebroonitti mataa Iish-Booshet gara Daawit mootichaa fidanii, “Kunoo mataa Iish-Booshet ilma diina kee Saaʼol kan ilma namicha si ajjeesuu barbaadu sanaa. Harʼa Waaqayyo Saaʼolii fi sanyii isaa illee gooftaa koo mootichaaf haaloo baaseera” jedhaniin.

9 Kodwa uDavida wabaphendula uRekabi loBahana umfowabo, amadodana kaRimoni umBherothi, wathi kubo: Kuphila kukaJehova, ohlenge umphefumulo wami kuyo yonke inhlupheko,

Daawit immoo Rekaabii fi obboleessa isaa Baʼanaa, ilmaan Rimoonii namicha gosa Biʼeerootaa sanaan akkana jedhe; “Dhugaa Waaqayyo jiraataa isa rakkina hunda jalaa na baase sanaa,

10 lapho owangibikelayo esithi: Khangela, uSawuli ufile; njalo enjengomthwali wendaba ezinhle emehlweni akhe, ngamxhakalaza, ngambulala eZikilagi, kulokuthi ngimvuzele indaba ezinhle.

kunoo ani namicha waan oduu gaarii naa fide seʼee, ‘Saaʼol duʼeera’ jedhee natti hime sana qabee Siiqlaagitti ajjeeseera. Egaa wanni ani namicha oduu sana fide badhaase kana dha!

11 Pho kangakanani, lapho abantu ababi bebulele umuntu olungileyo endlini yakhe esembhedeni wakhe; ngakho-ke angiyikubiza yini igazi lakhe esandleni senu, ngilisuse emhlabeni?

Yoos yeroo namoonni hamooni nama balleessaa hin qabne tokko mana isaa keessatti, siree isaa irratti ajjeesanitti ani dhiiga isaa harka keessan irraa hin barbaaduu ree? Lafa irraas hin balleessuu ree?”

12 UDavida waselaya amajaha, ababulala, aquma izandla zabo lenyawo zabo, abaphanyeka echibini leHebroni. Kodwa athatha ikhanda likaIshiboshethi, alingcwaba engcwabeni likaAbhineri eHebroni.

Kanaafuu Daawit namoota isaa ajaje; isaanis jara ajjeesan. Harkaa fi miilla isaanii irraa kukkutanii haroo Kebroon biratti reeffa isaanii fannisan. Mataa Iish-Booshet garuu fuudhanii Kebroonitti awwaala Abneer biratti awwaalan.
