1 Jehovha akatuma Natani kuna Dhavhidhi. Paakasvika kwaari, akataura akati, “Pakanga pane varume vaviri mune rimwe guta, mumwe akanga akapfuma mumwe ari murombo.
Tsono Yehova anatumiza Natani kwa Davide. Atafika kwa Davide anati, “Panali anthu awiri mʼmizinda ina, wina wolemera ndi wina wosauka.
2 Mupfumi uyu akanga ana makwai mazhinji kwazvo uye nemombe zhinji,
Munthu wolemerayo anali ndi nkhosa ndi ngʼombe zambiri,
3 asi murombo akanga asina chinhu kusara kwegwayana rimwe chete raakanga atenga. Akarirera, rikakura naye navana vake. Raidya pamwe chete naye, richinwira pamukombe waayinwira, uye richirara pamaoko ake. Rakanga rakaita somwanasikana kwaari.
koma wosaukayo analibe chilichonse kupatula kankhosa kamodzi kakakazi kamene anakagula. Iye anakasunga ndipo kanakula naye pamodzi ndi ana ake. Kamadya chakudya chake, kamamwera chikho chake ndipo kamagona mʼmanja mwake. Kanali ngati mwana wamkazi kwa iyeyo.
4 “Zvino muenzi aipfuura hake akasvika kumupfumi uya, asi mupfumi uyu haana kuda kubata rimwe ramakwai ake kana mombe kuti agadzirire zvokudya mupfuuri uyu akanga asvika kwaari. Asi iye akatora gwayana romurombo akarigadzirira uya akanga asvika kwaari.”
“Ndipo mlendo anafika kwa munthu wolemera uja, koma munthu wolemerayo sanafune kutenga imodzi mwa nkhosa kapena ngʼombe zake kuti akonzere chakudya mlendo amene anafika kwa iye. Mʼmalo mwake anatenga mwana wankhosa wamkazi wa munthu wosauka uja nakonzera chakudya mlendo uja amene anabwera kwa iye.”
5 Dhavhidhi akatsamwira munhu uyu zvikuru kwazvo akati kuna Natani, “Chokwadi naJehovha mupenyu, munhu akaita zvinhu zvakadai anofanira kufa!
Davide anapsa mtima kwambiri chifukwa cha munthuyo ndipo anati kwa Natani, “Pali Yehova, munthu amene anachita zimenezi ayenera kufa basi!
6 Anofanira kuripira gwayana iri kakapetwa runa pamusoro, nokuti akaita zvinhu zvakadai akasava netsitsi.”
Iye ayenera kulipira mwana wankhosa wamkaziyo kanayi, chifukwa anachita chinthu chimenechi ndipo analibe chifundo.”
7 Ipapo Natani akati kuna Dhavhidhi, “Ndimi munhu uyo! Zvanzi naJehovha: Mwari weIsraeri: ‘Ndakakuzodza kuti uve mambo weIsraeri, uye ndakakununura kubva paruoko rwaSauro.
Kenaka Natani anati kwa Davide, “Munthuyo ndinu! Yehova, Mulungu wa Israeli akuti, ‘Ine ndinakudzoza kukhala mfumu ya Israeli, ndipo ndinakupulumutsa mʼdzanja la Sauli.
8 Ndakapa kwauri imba yatenzi wako, uye vakadzi vatenzi wako ndakavaisa mumaoko ako. Ndakakupa imba yaIsraeri neyaJudha. Uye dai zvose izvi zvakava zvishoma, ndaidai ndakakupa zvimwezve.
Ndinakupatsanso banja la mbuye wako ndiponso akazi a mbuye wako mʼmanja mwako. Ine ndinakupatsanso banja la Israeli ndi Yuda. Ndipo ngati zinthu zonse izi zinali zochepa, Ine ndikanakupatsa zambiri.
9 Ko, wakazvidzirei shoko raJehovha nokuita zvisakarurama pamberi pake? Wakauraya Uria muHiti nomunondo uye ukatora mukadzi wake ukamuita wako. Wakamuuraya nomunondo wavaAmoni.
Nʼchifukwa chiyani unanyoza mawu a Yehova pochita chimene chili choyipa pamaso pake? Iwe unakantha Uriya Mhiti ndi lupanga ndipo unatenga mkazi wake kukhala wako. Uriyayo unamupha ndi lupanga la Aamoni.
10 Naizvozvo, munondo hauchazobvi mumba mako, nokuti wakandizvidza uye ukatora mukadzi waUria muHiti kuti ave wako.’
Ndipo tsopano lupanga silidzachoka pa nyumba yako, chifukwa unandinyoza ine ndi kutenga mkazi wa Uriya Mhiti kukhala wako.’
11 “Zvanzi naJehovha: ‘Kubva mumba mako chaimo ndichauyisa njodzi pamusoro pako. Ndichatora vakadzi vako iwe wakatarira ndigovapa kuno mumwe ari pedyo newe, uye acharara navo masikati machena.
“Yehova akuti, ‘Ine ndidzabweretsa tsoka pa iwe lochokera mʼbanja lako. Ndidzatenga akazi ako iwe ukuona ndi kuwapereka kwa wina amene ali pafupi nawe, ndipo iye adzagona ndi akazi ako masanasana Aisraeli onse akuona.
12 Iwe wakaita muchivande, asi ini ndichazviita masikati machena pamberi peIsraeri yose.’”
Iwe unachita zimenezi mwamseri koma Ine ndidzachita izi masanasana Aisraeli onse akuona.’”
13 Ipapo Dhavhidhi akati kuna Natani, “Ndakatadzira Jehovha.” Natani akapindura akati, “Jehovha akuregerera chitadzo chako. Haungafi hako kwete.
Kenaka Davide anati kwa Natani, “Ine ndachimwira Yehova.” Natani anayankha kuti, “Yehova wachotsa tchimo lanu. Simufa ayi.
14 Asi nokuda kwokuti waita izvi, waita kuti vavengi vaJehovha vamuzvidze kwazvo, mwanakomana uyu wauchaberekerwa achafa.”
Komabe, popeza pochita zimenezi mwachititsa kuti adani a Yehova amunyoze, mwana amene akubalireniyo adzafa.”
15 Mushure mokunge Natani adzokera kumba, Jehovha akarova mwana akaberekerwa Dhavhidhi nomukadzi waUria, akabva arwara.
Natani atapita kwawo, Yehova anakantha mwana amene mkazi wa Uriya anabereka ndipo anayamba kudwala.
16 Dhavhidhi akanyengeterera mwana kuna Mwari. Akatsanya uye akapinda mumba make akapedza usiku nousiku akarara pasi.
Davide anapempherera mwanayo kwa Mulungu. Iye anasala chakudya ndipo analowa mʼnyumba mwake nagona pansi usiku wonse.
17 Vakuru veimba yake vakamira paakanga ari, vachida kuti amuke pasi paakanga ari, asi iye akaramba, uye haana kuda kuti adye navo.
Akuluakulu a banja lake anayima pambali pake kuti amudzutse, koma iye anakana, ndipo sanadye chakudya chilichonse pamodzi ndi iwo.
18 Pazuva rechinomwe mwana akafa. Varanda vaDhavhidhi vakatya kumuudza kuti mwana akanga afa, nokuti vakafunga kuti, “Apo mwana paakanga achiri mupenyu, takataura naDhavhidhi asi haana kuda kutiteerera. Zvino tichamuudza sei kuti mwana afa? Achazvikuvadza zvikada.”
Mwana anamwalira pa tsiku lachisanu ndi chiwiri. Antchito a Davide anaopa kumuwuza kuti mwanayo wamwalira, popeza ankaganiza kuti, “Pamene mwanayu anali ndi moyo, ife tinayankhula Davide koma sanatimvere. Nanga tingamuwuze bwanji kuti mwana wamwalira? Mwina atha kudzipweteka.”
19 Dhavhidhi akaona kuti varanda vake vakanga vachizevezerana ndokubva aziva kuti mwana akanga afa. Akabvunza akati, “Mwana afa kanhi?” Vakapindura vakati, “Hongu afa.”
Davide anaona kuti antchito ake amanongʼonezana pakati pawo ndipo anazindikira kuti mwanayo wamwalira. Iye anafunsa kuti, “Kodi mwanayo wamwalira?” Iwo anayankha kuti, “Inde wamwalira.”
20 Ipapo Dhavhidhi akamuka pasi paakanga ari. Mushure mokunge ashamba, akazora mafuta, uye akapfeka zvimwe zvipfeko, akapinda mumba maJehovha akanamata. Ipapo akaenda kumba kwake, akakumbira zvokudya vakamupa, akadya.
Ndipo Davide anayimirira. Anakasamba nadzola mafuta ndi kusintha zovala zake. Pambuyo pake anapita ku nyumba ya Yehova kukapembedza. Kenaka anapita ku nyumba kwake ndipo atapempha chakudya anamupatsa nadya.
21 Varanda vake vakamubvunza vakati, “Ko, muri kuitirei zvinhu zvakadai? Mwana paakanga achiri mupenyu makatsanya uye mukachema, asi zvino mwana afa, momuka modya!”
Antchito ake anamufunsa kuti, “Chifukwa chiyani mukuchita zinthu motere? Pamene mwana anali ndi moyo, munkasala chakudya ndi kulira, koma tsopano pamene mwana wamwalira inu mukudzuka ndi kudya!”
22 Iye akapindura akati, “Apo mwana paakanga achiri mupenyu, ndakatsanya uye ndikachema. Ndaifunga kuti, ‘Ndiani anoziva? Zvimwe Jehovha angandinzwira nyasha akaita kuti mwana ararame.’
Iye anayankha kuti, “Pamene mwana anali ndi moyo ine ndinkasala zakudya ndi kulira. Ine ndinkaganiza kuti, ‘Akudziwa ndani? Yehova atha kundikomera mtima kuti mwanayo akhale ndi moyo.’
23 Asi zvino zvaafa, ndichatsanyireiko? Ko, ndingamudzosazve here? Ini ndichaenda kwaari, asi iye haangadzoki kwandiri.”
Koma tsopano wamwalira ndisaliranji chakudya? Kodi ndingathe kumubwezanso? Ine ndidzapita kumene kuli iyeko, koma iye sadzabwerera kwa ine.”
24 Zvino Dhavhidhi akanyaradza mukadzi wake Bhatishebha, akaenda kwaari akandorara naye. Akabereka mwanakomana, vakamutumidza kuti Soromoni. Jehovha akamuda;
Ndipo Davide anatonthoza mkazi wake Batiseba, napita kwa iye ndi kugona naye. Iye anabereka mwana wamwamuna, ndipo anamutcha dzina lake Solomoni. Yehova ankamukonda iye.
25 uye nokuti Jehovha akamuda, akatuma shoko nokuna Natani muprofita kuti amutumidze kuti Jedhidhia.
Ndipo chifukwa chakuti Yehova ankamukonda iyeyo, Yehovayo anatumiza mawu kwa mneneri Natani kuti akamutchule Yedidiya.
26 Zvino Joabhu akandorwa naRabha wavaAmoni uye akatora nhare yamambo.
Pa nthawi imeneyi Yowabu anamenyana ndi Raba ku Amoni ndipo analanda nsanja yaufumu.
27 Ipapo Joabhu akatuma nhume kuna Dhavhidhi, achiti, “Ndarwisa Rabha ndikatora nzvimbo inobva mvura yeguta iri.
Ndipo Yowabu anatumiza amithenga kwa Davide kukanena kuti, “Ine ndamenyana ndi Raba ndipo ndatenga zitsime zake za madzi.
28 Naizvozvo unganidzai varwi vose mukombe guta mugorikunda. Zvikasadaro ini ndichatora guta, uye rinozotumidzwa zita rangu.”
Ndipo tsopano sonkhanitsani asilikali onse ndipo muzungulire mzindawo ndi kuwulanda.”
29 Naizvozvo Dhavhidhi akaunganidza hondo yose ndokubva aenda kuRabha, akandorirwisa akaritora.
Kotero Davide anasonkhanitsa ankhondo onse ndipo anapita ku Raba kukawuthira nkhondo ndi kuwulanda.
30 Akabvisa korona pamusoro wamambo wavo, kurema kwayo kwaisvika tarenda rimwe chete uye yakanga yakanamirwa mabwe anokosha, uye yakaiswa pamusoro waDhavhidhi. Akapamba zvinhu zvizhinji kwazvo kubva muguta iri
Davide anachotsa chipewa chaufumu pamutu pa mfumu yawo ndipo Davide anavala chipewacho. Chipewacho chinkalemera makilogalamu asanu agolide, ndiponso chinali ndi miyala yokongola. Iye anatenga katundu wambiri kuchokera mu mzindawo,
31 uye akabudisa vanhu vakanga varimo, akavapa basa ravaishanda namajeko, mapiki namatemo, uye akavapa basa rokukanya zvidhina. Akaita izvi kumaguta ose avaAmoni. Ipapo Dhavhidhi nehondo yose vakadzokera kuJerusarema.
ndipo anatulutsa anthu amene anali mʼmenemo, nawayika kuti azigwira ntchito ya macheka, yosula makasu ndi nkhwangwa, ndiponso yowomba njerwa. Davide anachita izi ndi mizinda yonse ya Aamoni. Kenaka iye pamodzi ndi gulu lake lonse lankhondo anabwerera ku Yerusalemu.
