2 USamuyeli 1
1 Kwasekusithi emva kokufa kukaSawuli, uDavida esephendukile ekutshayeni amaAmaleki, uDavida wahlala insuku ezimbili eZikilagi.
Pea hili ʻae mate ʻa Saula, pea kuo liu mai ʻa Tevita mei heʻene taaʻi ʻae kakai ʻAmaleki, pea kuo hili ʻae ʻaho ʻe ua mo ʻene nofo ʻa Tevita ʻi Sikilaki;
2 Kwasekusithi ngosuku lwesithathu, khangela, kwafika umuntu evela enkambeni evela kuSawuli, ozigqoko zakhe zazidatshuliwe, elenhlabathi ekhanda lakhe. Kwasekusithi efika kuDavida wawela emhlabathini, wakhonza.
Pea ʻi he hoko ki hono tolu ʻoe ʻaho, vakai, naʻe haʻu ha tangata mei he tau ʻa Saula, kuo mahaehae hono kofu, pea pani efu hono ʻulu, pea ʻi heʻene hoko atu kia Tevita, naʻa ne tō hifo ki he kelekele, mo ne fai fakaʻapaʻapa.
3 UDavida wasesithi kuye: Uvela ngaphi? Wasesithi kuye: Ngiphephile enkambeni yakoIsrayeli.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Tevita kiate ia, “ʻOku ke haʻu mei fē?” Pea naʻa ne pehē kiate ia, “Kuo u hao mei he nofoʻanga tau ʻo ʻIsileli.”
4 UDavida wasesithi kuye: Lunjani udaba? Akungitshele. Wasesithi: Abantu babalekile empini, labanengi babantu labo bawile njalo bafile, uSawuli laye loJonathani indodana yakhe labo bafile.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Tevita kiate ia, “Ko e hā ha meʻa naʻe fai? ʻOku ou kole ke ke fakahā mai kiate au.” Pea naʻe pehēange ʻe ia, “Kuo hola ʻae kakai mei he tau, pea kuo tō ʻae kakai tokolahi ʻo mate; pea kuo pekia ʻa Saula mo Sonatane ko hono foha foki.”
5 UDavida wasesithi kulelojaha elalimbikela: Wazi njani ukuthi uSawuli loJonathani indodana yakhe bafile?
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Tevita ki he tangata talavou naʻe lea mai, “Naʻe fēfē hoʻo ʻilo ʻe koe kuo mate ʻa Saula pea mo Sonatane ko hono foha?”
6 Lelojaha elalimbikela laselisithi: Kuthe ngisithi thutshu entabeni yeGilibowa, khangela, uSawuli eyeme emkhontweni wakhe, khangela-ke, inqola labagadi bamabhiza kwakumnamathele.
Pea naʻe pehē mai ʻe he tangata talavou naʻe tala ia kiate ia, “ʻIloange naʻaku hoko atu ki he moʻunga ko Kilipoa, pea vakai, naʻe faʻaki ʻa Saula ki hono tao; pea vakai naʻe tuli mālohi kiate ia ʻae ngaahi saliote mo e kau heka hoosi.
7 Lapho enyemukula, wasengibona, wangibiza; ngasengisithi: Khangela ngilapha.
Pea ʻi heʻene sio ki mui, naʻa ne mamata kiate au, ʻo ne ui kiate au. Pea naʻaku pehē ʻe au, ‘Ko au eni.’
8 Wasesithi kimi: Ungubani? Ngasengisithi kuye: NgingumAmaleki.
Pea naʻa ne pehē mai kiate au, ‘Ko hai koe?’ Pea naʻaku pehē kiate ia, ‘Ko e tangata ʻAmaleki au.’
9 Wasesithi kimi: Ake ume phezu kwami ungibulale; ngoba ubuhlungu obukhulu bungehlele, ngoba impilo yami isaphelele kimi.
Pea naʻa ne toe pehē mai kiate au, ‘ʻOku ou kole kiate koe, ke ke tuʻu hake kiate au ʻo tāmateʻi au: he ʻoku ou mamahi ʻaupito, koeʻuhi ʻoku kei mālohi ʻeku moʻui ʻiate au.’
10 Ngakho ngema phezu kwakhe ngambulala, ngoba ngazi ukuthi angeke aphile emva kokuwa kwakhe. Ngasengithatha umqhele owawusekhanda lakhe, lesongo elalisengalweni yakhe, ngikulethile lapha enkosini yami.
Ko ia ne u tuʻu ki ai, ʻo tāmateʻi ia, koeʻuhi naʻaku ʻilo pau ʻe ʻikai te ne toe moʻui mei heʻene tō ki lalo ʻaupito: pea naʻaku toʻo ʻae tatā fakatuʻi mei hono ʻulu, mo e vesa mei hono nima, pea kuo u ʻomi ia ki heni ki hoku ʻeiki.
11 UDavida wasebamba izigqoko zakhe wazidabula, njalo lawo wonke amadoda ayelaye.
Ka naʻe toki puke ʻe Tevita ki hono ngaahi kofu ʻo ne haehae ia; pea naʻe fai pehē foki ʻae kau tangata kotoa pē naʻe ʻiate ia:
12 Basebelila, bakhala inyembezi, bazila ukudla kwaze kwahlwa ngenxa kaSawuli, langenxa kaJonathani indodana yakhe, langenxa yabantu beNkosi, langenxa yendlu kaIsrayeli, ngoba babewe ngenkemba.
Pea naʻa nau mamahi mo tangi, mo ʻaukai ʻo aʻu ki he poʻuli, koeʻuhi ko Saula, pea mo Sonatane ko hono foha, pea koeʻuhi ko e kakai ʻa Sihova, pea mo e fale kotoa ʻo ʻIsileli; koeʻuhi ko e tō hifo ʻakinautolu ʻi he heletā.
13 UDavida wasesithi kulelojaha elalimbikele: Uvela ngaphi? Laselisithi: Ngiyindodana yomuntu wezizweni, umAmaleki.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Tevita ki he tangata talavou naʻe ʻomi ʻae ongoongo, “ʻOku ke mei fē koe?” Pea naʻa ne pehēange, “Ko e foha au ʻoe muli, ko e ʻAmaleki.”
14 UDavida wasesithi kulo: Kawesabanga njani ukwelula isandla sakho ukubhubhisa ogcotshiweyo weNkosi?
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Tevita kiate ia, “Ko e hā ia naʻe ʻikai te ke manavahē ai ke ala atu ho nima ke tāmateʻi ʻaia naʻe fakatapui ʻe Sihova?”
15 UDavida wasebiza elinye lamajaha, wathi: Sondela ulidumele. Laselilitshaya laze lafa.
Pea naʻe fekau atu ʻe Tevita ki ha taha ʻoe kau talavou, ʻo ne pehē, “ʻUnuʻunu atu ʻo taaʻi ia.” Pea naʻa ne taaʻi ia ke ne mate.
16 UDavida wasesithi kulo: Igazi lakho kalibe phezu kwekhanda lakho; ngoba umlomo wakho ufakaze umelene lawe, usithi: Mina ngimbulele ogcotshiweyo weNkosi.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Tevita kiate ia, “Ke ʻi ho ʻulu pe ʻoʻou ho toto; he kuo fakamoʻoni ʻe ho ngutu kiate koe, ʻo pehē, kuo u tāmateʻi ʻaia naʻe fakatapui ʻe Sihova.”
17 UDavida waselila lesisililo ngenxa kaSawuli loJonathani indodana yakhe
Pea naʻe tēngihia ʻe Tevita ʻa Saula, pea mo hono foha ko Sonatane, ʻi he tangilāulau ko eni:
18 (lapho wathi kufundiswe abantwana bakoJuda "IDandili"; khangela, kubhaliwe egwalweni lukaJashari):
(Naʻa ne fekau foki ke nau akoʻi ʻae fānau ʻa Siuta ke ngāueʻaki ʻae kaufana: vakai kuo tohi ia ʻi he tohi ʻa Sesa.)
19 Ubuhle bukaIsrayeli bubulewe ezindaweni zakho eziphakemeyo. Awe njani amaqhawe!
“Kuo tāmateʻi ʻae toulekeleka, ʻo ʻIsileli ʻi hoʻo ngaahi potu māʻolunga: ʻOiauē, kuo hinga ʻae kau tangata mālohi!
20 Lingakukhulumi eGathi, lingakumemezeli ezitaladeni zeAshikeloni, hlezi athokoze amadodakazi amaFilisti, hlezi ajabule amadodakazi abangasokwanga.
ʻOua naʻa tala ia ʻi Kati, ʻoua naʻa fakahā ia ʻi he ngaahi hala ʻo ʻAsikeloni; telia naʻa fiefia ai ʻae ngaahi ʻofefine ʻoe kakai Filisitia, pea telia naʻa polepole ai ʻae ngaahi ʻofefine ʻokinautolu ʻoku taʻekamu.
21 Zintaba zeGilibowa, kakungabi khona amazolo kumbe izulu phezu kwenu, kumbe amasimu eminikelo. Ngoba izihlangu zamaqhawe zangcoliswa khona; isihlangu sikaSawuli singagcotshwanga ngamafutha.
ʻAe ngaahi moʻunga ʻo Kilipoa, ke ʻoua naʻa ai ha hahau, pe ha ʻuha ʻe tō hifo kiate koe, pe [ʻiate ]koe ha ngoueʻanga ʻoe feilaulau: koeʻuhi kuo liʻaki kovi ʻi ai ʻae pā ʻoe mālohi, ʻae pā ʻo Saula, ʻo hangē pe naʻe ʻikai ke fakatapui ia ʻaki ʻae lolo.
22 Egazini lababuleweyo, emahwahweni amaqhawe idandili likaJonathani kaliphendukanga, lenkemba kaSawuli kayibuyelanga ize.
Naʻe ʻikai foki mai ʻae kaufana ʻo Sonatane, mei he toto ʻokinautolu naʻe tāmateʻi, mei he sino ʻoe kau mālohi, pea naʻe ʻikai foki noa mai ʻae heletā ʻa Saula.
23 USawuli loJonathani babethandeka bebahle empilweni zabo, lekufeni kwabo kabehlukaniswanga; babelesiqubu kulezinkozi, belamandla kulezilwane.
Naʻe toulekeleka, mo lelei ʻa Saula mo Sonatane ʻi heʻena moʻui, pea naʻe ʻikai māvae ʻakinaua ʻi heʻena mate: naʻa na veʻe vave hake ʻi he fanga ʻikale, naʻa na mālohi lahi hake ʻi he fanga laione.
24 Madodakazi akoIsrayeli, mkhaleleni inyembezi uSawuli, owaligqokisa ngokubomvu lentokozo, owafaka imiceciso yegolide phezu kwezigqoko zenu.
ʻAe ngaahi ʻofefine ʻo ʻIsileli, mou tēngihia ʻa Saula, ʻaia naʻa ne fakakofuʻi ʻakimoutolu ʻi he kulaʻahoʻaho, mo e meʻa ʻoe manako, ʻaia naʻa ne ʻai ki hoʻomou kofu ʻae teunga ʻoe koula.
25 Awe njani amaqhawe phakathi kwempi! Jonathani, ubulewe endaweni zakho eziphakemeyo!
ʻOiauē, ʻae hinga ki lalo ʻae kau mālohi ʻi he lotolotonga ʻoe tau! ʻE Sonatane naʻe tāmateʻi koe ʻi he ngaahi potu māʻolunga ʻoʻou.
26 Ngidabukile ngawe, mfowethu Jonathani; ubumnandi kakhulu kimi, uthando lwakho belumangalisa kimi lusedlula uthando lwabesifazana.
Kuo u mamahi koeʻuhi ko koe, ʻe hoku kāinga ko Sonatane: naʻa ke lelei fau kiate au: naʻe fakamanavahē hoʻo ʻofa kiate au, ʻo lahi hake ʻi he ʻofa ʻae kau fefine.
27 Awe njani amaqhawe, zabhubha lezikhali zempi!
ʻOiauē, he kuo tō ki lalo ʻae kau mālohi, kuo fakaʻauha ʻae ngaahi mahafu ʻoe tau!”
