1 Samueri 29
1 VaFiristia vakaunganidza varwi vavo paAfeki, uye vaIsraeri vakadzika musasa patsime raiva paJezireeri.
Filistifoɔ no boaboaa wɔn akodɔm nyinaa ano wɔ Afek, na Israelfoɔ nso kɔkyeree sraban wɔ asutire bi ho wɔ Yesreel.
2 Vatongi vavaFiristia pavaifamba namapoka avo amazana mazana uye ezviuru zviuru, Dhavhidhi navanhu vake vaifamba vari mushure maAkishi.
Ɛberɛ a Filistifoɔ ntuanofoɔ de wɔn nsraadɔm akuakuo ɔha ɔha mu ne mpempem retu ɔsa no, na Dawid nso ne ne dɔm retu sa wɔ wɔn akyi a, Akis ka wɔn ho.
3 Vakuru vehondo yavaFiristia vakabvunza vakati, “Ko, vaHebheru ava vanodei?” Akishi akapindura akati, “Ko, uyu haazi Dhavhidhi, akanga ari muchinda waSauro mambo weIsraeri here? Anga agere neni kwenguva inopfuura gore, uye kubva pazuva raakabva kuna Sauro kusvikira zvino, handina kuwana chakaipa maari.”
Filistifoɔ asahene no bisaa sɛ, “Ɛdeɛn na Hebrifoɔ yi reyɛ wɔ ha?” Akis buaa sɛ, “Ɔyi ne Dawid, ɔbarima a ɔdwane firii Israelhene Saulo anim no. Waba me nkyɛn ha ne me abɛtena bɛboro afe nie. Na ɛfiri ɛberɛ a ɔgyaa Saulo hɔ bɛsi ɛnnɛ yi, menhunuu ne ho mfomsoɔ biara.”
4 Asi vakuru vehondo yavaFiristia vakamutsamwira vakati, “Dzosai munhu uyu kwakare, kuti adzokere kunzvimbo yamakamurayira kuti agare. Haafaniri kuenda nesu kuhondo kuitira kuti arege kutipindukira tiri pakurwa. Zvingava nani kwaari kuti awane nyasha kuna tenzi wake ndezvipiko, hakusi kuti agure misoro yavanhu vedu here?
Na Filistifoɔ asahene no bo fuu no kaa sɛ, “Ma ɔbarima no nsane nkɔ, sɛdeɛ ɔbɛkɔ baabi a wode maa no no. Ɛnsɛ sɛ ɔka yɛn ho kɔ ɔko no, ɛfiri sɛ, sɛ anhwɛ a, ɔbɛdane nʼani ako atia yɛn wɔ ɔko no mu. Ɛkwan foforɔ bi wɔ hɔ a ɔbɛfa so ne ne wura Saulo aka abɔ mu a ɛsene sɛ ɔbɛko atia yɛn anaa?
5 Ko, uyu handiye Dhavhidhi wavakaimba pamusoro pake vachitamba vachiti: “‘Sauro akauraya zviuru zvake, uye Dhavhidhi makumi ezviuru zvake’?”
Ɛnyɛ saa Dawid yi na wɔtoo dwom faa ne ho wɔ wɔn asa mu sɛ: “Saulo akum ne mpempem na Dawid deɛ, wakum ɔpedu ɔpedu no?”
6 Saka Akishi akadana Dhavhidhi akati kwaari, “Zvirokwazvo naJehovha mupenyu, iwe wanga wakavimbika, uye ini ndaifara kuti iwe ushande neni muhondo. Kubva pazuva rawakasvika kwandiri kusvikira iye zvino, handina kuwana chakaipa mauri, asi madzishe haabvumirani newe.
Na Akis frɛɛ Dawid ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Mmerɛ dodoɔ a Awurade te ase yi, menhyiaa mmarima a wɔte sɛ mo, anka mepɛ sɛ mo ne yɛn kɔ ɔko, nanso Filistifoɔ sodifoɔ a aka no mpene so.
7 Chidzoka hako kwakare norugare; urege kuita chinhu chisingafadzi madzishe avaFiristia.”
Enti, sane wʼakyi na kɔ no asomdwoeɛ mu. Ɛno enti, nyɛ biribiara a ɛbɛha Filistifoɔ no.”
8 Dhavhidhi akamubvunza akati, “Asi ndaiteiko hangu? Makawaneiko chakaipa kumuranda wenyu kubva pazuva randakasvika kwamuri kusvikira zvino? Ndinoregereiko kundorwa navavengi vashe wangu mambo?”
Dawid bisaa sɛ, “Ɛdeɛn na mayɛ a ɛsɛ sɛ wɔde me fa saa ɛkwan yi so? Adɛn enti na ɛnsɛ sɛ meko tia me wura ɔhene no atamfoɔ?”
9 Akishi akati, “Ndinoziva kuti wanga uchifadza pamberi pangu somutumwa waMwari; asi zvazvo, vakuru vehondo yavaFiristia vati, ‘Iye haafaniri kuenda nesu kuhondo.’
Nanso, Akis gyinaa mu pintinn kaa sɛ, “Me nko ara me fa mu deɛ, woyɛ pɛpɛ te sɛ Onyankopɔn ɔbɔfoɔ. Nanso, asahene no suro sɛ wɔde wo bɛka wɔn ho wɔ ɔko mu.
10 Zvino muka mangwanani-ngwanani, pamwe chete navaranda vatenzi wako avo vakauya newe, ugobva achiri mangwanani pakunotanga kuchena.”
Enti, sɔre anɔpahema, na wo ne wo mmarima no nkɔ ɛberɛ a animu retete no.”
11 Saka Dhavhidhi navanhu vake vakamuka mangwanani-ngwanani kuti vadzokere kunyika yavaFiristia, uye vaFiristia vakakwidza kuJezireeri.
Na Dawid sane kɔɔ Filistifoɔ asase so, na Filistifoɔ akodɔm no nso kɔɔ Yesreel.
