< 2 Samueri 19 >
1 Joabhu akaudzwa kuti, “Mambo anochema nokuungudza nokuda kwaAbhusaromu.”
Yowabu anawuzidwa kuti, “Mfumu ikulira maliro a Abisalomu.”
2 Uye kuhondo yose, kukunda kwezuva iro kwakashandurwa kukava kuchema, nokuti pazuva iro, mauto akazvinzwa zvichinzi, “Mambo anochema nokuda kwomwanakomana wake.”
Ndipo kwa asilikali onse chipambano cha tsiku limenelo chinasandulika maliro, chifukwa tsiku limenelo anthu anamva kuti mfumu ili pa chisoni chachikulu chifukwa cha mwana wake.
3 Varume vakapinda muguta vachiverevedza savanhu vanoverevedza vachinyara nokuti vatiza kubva kuhondo.
Ankhondo analowa mu mzinda mwakachetechete tsiku limenelo ngati momwe amalowera anthu mwamanyazi chifukwa athawa ku nkhondo.
4 Mambo akafukidza chiso chake akachema zvikuru achiti, “Haiwa mwanakomana wangu Abhusaromu! Haiwa Abhusaromu, mwanakomana wangu, mwanakomana wangu!”
Mfumu inaphimba nkhope yake ndipo inalira mofuwula, “Iwe mwana wanga Abisalomu! Iwe Abisalomu, mwana wanga, mwana wanga!”
5 Ipapo Joabhu akapinda mumba kuna mambo akati, “Nhasi manyadzisa vanhu vose, avo vachangoponesa upenyu hwenyu noupenyu hwavanakomana navanasikana venyu uye noupenyu hwavakadzi venyu navarongo venyu.
Kenaka Yowabu analowa mʼnyumba ya mfumu nafika kwa mfumuyo ndipo anati, “Lero mwachititsa manyazi asilikali anu onse, amene apulumutsa moyo wanu ndiponso moyo wa ana anu aamuna ndi aakazi, kudzanso moyo wa akazi anu ndi wa azikazi anu.
6 Munoda avo vanokuvengai uye munovenga avo vanokudai. Mazviratidza pachena nhasi kuti vatungamiri vehondo navanhu vavo havarevi chinhu kwamuri. Ndinoona kuti maifarira kuti dai Abhusaromu ararama nhasi uye kuti dai tose zvedu tafa.
Inu mumakonda amene amadana nanu ndipo mumadana ndi amene amakukondani. Inuyo mwaonetsa lero poyera kuti simusamala za atsogoleri anu a nkhondo ndi asilikali awo. Ine ndikuona kuti inu mukanakondwera ngati Abisalomu akanakhala ndi moyo lero, tonsefe titafa.
7 Zvino budai munokurudzira vanhu venyu. Ndinopika naJehovha kuti kana mukasabuda, hakuna munhu achasara nemi usiku huno. Zvichava zvakaipisisa kwamuri kupinda njodzi dzose dzakakuwirai kubva pauduku hwenyu kusvikira zvino.”
Tsopano pitani mukawalimbikitse asilikali anu. Ine ndikulumbira mwa Yehova kuti ngati inu simupita palibe munthu amene adzatsale ali ndi inu polowa dzuwa. Ichi chidzakhala choyipa kwambiri kuposa zovuta zonse zimene zinakugwerani kuyambira muli mnyamata mpaka lero.”
8 Saka mambo akasimuka akandoisa chigaro chake pasuo. Vanhu vakati vaudzwa kuti, “Mambo agere pasuo,” vose vakauya pamberi pake. Zvichakadaro, vaIsraeri vakanga vatizira kumisha yavo.
Kotero mfumu inanyamuka ndipo inakhala pa mpando wake pa chipata. Pamene asilikali anawuzidwa kuti, “Mfumu yakhala pa chipata,” onse anabwera kwa iye. Nthawi imeneyi nʼkuti Aisraeli atathawira ku nyumba zawo.
9 Mumarudzi ose avaIsraeri, vanhu vose vakanga vachikakavadzana vachiti, “Mambo akatisunungura kubva muruoko rwavaFiristia. Asi zvino atiza nyika nokuda kwaAbhusaromu;
Pakati pa mafuko onse a Israeli, anthu amakangana ndipo amati, “Mfumu inatipulumutsa mʼmanja mwa adani anthu. Iye ndi amene anatilanditsa mʼdzanja la Afilisti. Koma tsopano wathawa mʼdziko muno chifukwa cha Abisalomu.
10 uye Abhusaromu, uyo watakazodza kuti atitonge, afa muhondo. Saka munoregereiko kutaura nezvokudzosa mambo?”
Ndipo Abisalomu amene ife tinamudzoza kuti atilamulire wafa pa nkhondo. Tsono nʼchifukwa chiyani simukunena kanthu za kubweretsanso mfumu?”
11 Mambo Dhavhidhi akatuma shoko naZadhoki naAbhiatari, vaprista achiti, “Bvunzai vakuru veJudha kuti, ‘Seiko imi mava vokupedzisira kudzosa mambo kumuzinda wake, sezvo zvinotaurwa muIsraeri yose zvasvika pamba pake.
Mfumu Davide inatumiza uthenga uwu kwa ansembe Zadoki ndi Abiatara, “Funsani akuluakulu a Yuda, ‘Nʼchifukwa chiyani inu mukukhala otsiriza kuyitana mfumu ku nyumba yake yaufumu, pakuti zimene zikunenedwa mu Israeli yense zamveka kwa mfumu ndi onse amene akukhala nayo.
12 Imi muri hama dzangu, muri venyama yangu chaivo uye veropa rangu. Saka maitireiko vokupedzisira kudzosa mambo?’
Inu ndinu abale anga enieni, mafupa anga ndi mnofu wanga. Nʼchifukwa chiyani inuyo mukukhala otsiriza kubweretsa mfumu?’
13 Uye muti kuna Amasa, ‘Ko, iwe hauzi wenyama yangu uye weropa rangu here? Mwari ngaandirove, ngaarambe achidaro kwazvo, kana kubva zvino zvichienda mberi, iwe ukarega kuva mukuru wehondo yangu panzvimbo yaJoabhu.’”
Ndipo munene kwa Amasa, ‘Kodi iwe si mʼbale wanga weniweni? Mulungu andilange, andilange kwambiri ngati kuyambira tsopano sukhala mtsogoleri wa ankhondo anga kulowa mʼmalo mwa Yowabu.’”
14 Akabata mwoyo yavarume vose veJudha vakaita sokunge vaiva munhu mumwe. Vakatuma shoko kuna mambo vachiti, “Dzokai, imi navanhu venyu mose.”
Davide anakopa mitima ya anthu onse a Yuda ndipo anthuwo anakhala ngati munthu mmodzi. Iwo anatumiza mawu kwa mfumu, “Bwererani inu ndi anthu anu onse.”
15 Ipapo mambo akadzoka akasvika paJorodhani. Zvino vanhu veJudha vakanga vasvika kuGirigari kuti vaende kundosangana namambo vagomuyambutsa Jorodhani.
Kotero mfumu inabwerera ndipo inakafika mpaka ku Yorodani. Tsono anthu a ku Yuda anabwera ku Giligala kuti akakumane ndi mfumu ndi kumuwolotsa Yorodani.
16 Shimei mwanakomana waGera, muBhenjamini aibva kuBhahurimi, akakurumidza kuburuka navanhu veJudha kuti vandosangana naMambo Dhavhidhi.
Simei mwana wa Gera, wa fuko la Benjamini wa ku Bahurimu, anabwera mofulumira pamodzi ndi Ayuda kudzakumana ndi mfumu Davide.
17 Akanga ane vaBhenjamini vaisvika chiuru, pamwe chete naZibha, mutariri weimba yaSauro, uye navanakomana vake gumi navashanu navaranda vake makumi maviri. Vakamhanyira kuJorodhani uko kwakanga kwava namambo.
Iyeyo anali ndi anthu 1,000 a fuko la Benjamini pamodzi ndi Ziba, wantchito wa banja la Sauli ndi ana ake aamuna khumi ndi asanu ndi antchito ake makumi awiri. Iwo anathamangira ku Yorodani kumene kunali mfumu.
18 Vakayambuka rukova kuti vandotora veimba yamambo uye kuti vaite zvose zvaaida. Shimei mwanakomana waGera akati ayambuka Jorodhani, akawira pasi nechiso chake pamberi pamambo
Iwo anawoloka mtsinje kukatenga banja lonse la mfumu ndi kuchita zonse zimene mfumuyo imafuna. Pamene Simei mwana wa Gera anawoloka Yorodani, anagwa pansi chafufumimba pamaso pa mfumu,
19 akati kwaari, “Ishe wangu ngaarege kundipa mhaka. Regai henyu kurangarira kukanganisa kwakaitwa nomuranda wenyu pazuva rakabva ishe wangu mambo paJerusarema. Mambo ngaazvidzime mundangariro dzake.
ndipo anati, “Mbuye wanga musaganizire za kulakwa kwanga. Musakumbukire zolakwa zimene mtumiki wanu anakuchitirani tsiku limene mbuye wanga mfumu mumachoka mu Yerusalemu. Mfumu musazikumbukirenso zimenezi.
20 Nokuti ini muranda wenyu ndinozviziva kuti ndakatadza, asi nhasi ndauya pano sewokutanga weimba yose yaJosefa kuti ndiburuke ndizosangana naishe wangu iye mambo.”
Pakuti ine mtumiki wanu ndazindikira kuti ndachimwa. Koma lero ndabwera ngati woyamba wa nyumba ya Yosefe yonse kudzakumana nanu mbuye wanga mfumu.”
21 Ipapo Abhishai mwanakomana waZeruya akati, “Ko, Shimei haafaniri kuurayiwa nokuda kwaizvozvi here? Akatuka muzodziwa waJehovha.”
Ndipo Abisai mwana wa Zeruya anati, “Kodi Simei saphedwa chifukwa cha ichi? Iye anatukwana wodzozedwa wa Yehova.”
22 Dhavhidhi akapindura akati, “Ndineiko nemi, imi vanakomana vaZeruya zvokuti nhasi mava vavengi vangu! Pane munhu angafanira kufa muIsraeri nhasi here? Ko, handizivi here kuti nhasi ndiri mambo weIsraeri?”
Davide anayankha kuti, “Kodi inu ana a Zeruya, ndikuchitireni chiyani? Lero lino iwe wakhala mdani wanga! Kodi wina aphedwe lero mu Israeli? Kodi ine sindikudziwa kuti lero ndine mfumu mu Israeli?”
23 Saka mambo akati kuna Shimei, “Haungafi.” Uye mambo akamuvimbisa nemhiko.
Ndipo mfumu inati kwa Simei, “Iwe Simei suphedwa.” Ndipo mfumuyo inalonjeza ndi lumbiro.
24 Mefibhosheti muzukuru waSauro, akaburukawo kundosangana namambo. Haana kuva nehanya netsoka dzake kana kuguririra ndebvu dzake kana kusuka nguo dzake kubvira pazuva rakasimuka mambo kusvikira pazuva raakadzoka ari mupenyu.
Mefiboseti, mdzukulu wa Sauli, nayenso anabwera kudzakumana ndi mfumu. Kuyambira tsiku limene mfumu inachoka mpaka tsiku limene inabwerera mu mtendere, iye sanasambe mapazi kaya kumeta ndevu kapena kuchapa zovala zake.
25 Paakasvika achibva kuJerusarema achindosangana namambo, mambo akamubvunza akati, “Wakaregereiko kuenda neni, Mefibhosheti?”
Pamene anafika kuchokera ku Yerusalemu kudzakumana ndi mfumu, mfumu inamufunsa kuti, “Nʼchifukwa chiyani sunapite nane Mefiboseti?”
26 Iye akati, “Ishe wangu mambo, sezvo ini muranda wenyu ndiri chirema, ndakati, ‘Ndichaita kuti mbongoro yangu igadzikwe chigaro uye ndigoitasva, kuti ndigoenda namambo.’ Asi Zibha muranda wangu akandipandukira.
Iye anayankha kuti, “Mbuye wanga mfumu, pakuti ine wantchito wanu ndine wolumala. Ndinati, ‘Andikonzere chishalo cha bulu wanga ndipo ndidzakwera kuti ndipite ndi mfumu.’ Koma Ziba wantchito wanga anandilakwitsa.
27 Uye akandorevera nhema muranda wenyu kuna ishe wangu mambo. Ishe wangu mambo akaita somutumwa waMwari; saka itai henyu zvinokufadzai.
Ndipo wayankhula zosinjirira za ine mtumiki wanu kwa inu mbuye wanga mfumu. Mbuye wanga mfumu ali ngati mngelo wa Mulungu ndipo chitani chimene chikukomerani.
28 Zvizvarwa zvose zvasekuru vangu hazvifanirwi nechimwe chinhu asi rufu ruchibva kuna she wangu mambo, asi makapa muranda wenyu nzvimbo pakati paavo vanodya patafura yenyu. Saka ini ndine mvumo yeiko yokukumbirazve kuna mambo?”
Zidzukulu zonse za agogo anga sizinayenera chilichonse koma imfa kuchokera kwa inu mbuye wanga mfumu, koma inu munapereka malo kwa mtumiki wanu pakati pa amene amadya pa tebulo lanu. Tsono ine ndili ndi chiyaninso kuti ndipitirize kudandaula kwa mfumu?”
29 Mambo akati kwaari, “Uchataurireiko zvakawanda? Ndinokurayira iwe naZibha kuti mugovane minda.”
Mfumu inayankha kuti, “Uneneranji zambiri? Ine ndikulamula kuti iwe ndi Ziba mugawane minda.”
30 Mefibhosheti akati kuna mambo, “Ngaatore hake zvinhu zvose, sezvo zvino ishe wangu mambo asvika kumusha ari mupenyu.”
Mefiboseti anati kwa mfumu, “Muloleni atenge zonse, pakuti tsopano mbuye wanga mwafika kwanu mu mtendere.”
31 Bhazirai muGireadhi akasvikawo achibva kuRogerimi kuti ayambuke Jorodhani namambo uye kuti amuperekedze panzira yake ikoko.
Barizilai Mgiliyadi anabweranso kuchokera ku Rogelimu kudzawoloka Yorodani ndi mfumu ndi kumuperekeza kuchokera kumeneko.
32 Zvino Bhazirai akanga akwegura kwazvo, ava namakore makumi masere. Akanga achiriritira mambo panguva yaakanga agere paMahanaimi, nokuti akanga ari munhu akapfuma kwazvo.
Tsono Barizilai anali wokalamba kwambiri, wa zaka makumi asanu ndi atatu. Iye ndi amene anapereka zinthu kwa mfumu pamene anali ku Mahanaimu pakuti anali wolemera kwambiri.
33 Mambo akati kuna Bhazirai, “Yambuka pamwe chete neni ugogara neni muJerusarema, uye ini ndichakuriritira.”
Mfumu inati kwa Barizilai, “Woloka nane ndipo ukakhale ndi ine mu Yerusalemu ndipo ineyo ndidzakusamalira.”
34 Asi Bhazirai akapindura mambo akati, “Makore manganiko andichararama, zvokuti ndingafanira kukwidza kuJerusarema namambo?
Barizilai anayankha mfumu kuti, “Kodi zakhala zaka zingati zoti ndikhale ndi moyo, kuti ndipite ku Yerusalemu ndi mfumu?
35 Ndava namakore makumi masere. Ndichagona kuziva mutsauko pakati pechakanaka nechisina kunaka here? Ko, muranda wenyu achagona kuravira chaanodya nechaanonwa here? Ko, ndichagona kunzwa manzwi avarume navakadzi vanoimba here? Muranda wenyu achaitireiko kuti ave mumwe mutoro kuna ishe wangu mambo?
Ine tsopano ndili ndi zaka 80. Kodi ndingathe kusiyanitsa pakati pa chabwino ndi choyipa? Kodi mtumiki wanu angathe kuzindikira kukoma kwa zimene akudya ndi kumwa? Kodi ndingathe kumva kuyimba kwa amuna ndi akazi? Nʼchifukwa chiyani wantchito wanu akakhale ngati katundu kwa mbuye wanga mfumu?
36 Muranda wenyu achayambuka Jorodhani namambo kwenhambwe pfupi, asi mambo anondipireiko mubayiro wakadai?
Koma ine mtumiki wanu ndingoyenda pangʼono kuti ndiwoloke Yorodani pamodzi ndi mfumu. Amfumu mungandipatsirenji mphotho yotere?
37 Regai muranda wenyu adzokere hake, kuti ndinofira muguta rangu pedyo nehwiro hwababa vangu namai vangu. Asi hoyu muranda wangu Kimihami. Ngaayambuke hake naishe iye mambo. Mumuitire henyu zvose zvinokufadzai.”
Muloleni, mtumiki wanu abwerere, kuti ndikafere kwathu pafupi ndi manda a abambo ndi amayi anga. Koma nayu mtumiki wanu Kimuhamu. Muloleni iye awoloke nanu mbuye wanga mfumu. Mumuchitire chilichonse chimene chikukomereni!”
38 Mambo akati, “Kimihami achayambuka neni, uye ndichamuitira zvose zvinokufadza. Uye zvose zvaunoda kwandiri ndichakuitira.”
Mfumu inati, “Kimuhamu adzawoloka ndi ine, ndipo ndidzamuchitira iye chilichonse chimene chidzakondweretsa iwe. Ndipo chilichonse chimene udzandipempha ine ndidzakuchitira.”
39 Saka vanhu vose vakayambuka Jorodhani, uye ipapo mambo akazoyambukawo. Mambo akatsvoda Bhazirai akamuropafadza, uye Bhazirai akadzokera kumba kwake.
Kotero anthu onse anawoloka Yorodani ndipo kenaka mfumu inawoloka. Mfumu inapsompsona Barizilai ndi kumupatsa madalitso ndipo Barizilaiyo anabwerera kwawo.
40 Mambo akati ayambukira kuGirigari, Kimihami akayambuka naye. Mauto ose eJudha nehafu yavarwi veIsraeri vakanga vayambutsa mambo.
Pamene mfumu inawolokera ku Giligala, Kimuhamu anawoloka naye. Ankhondo onse a Yuda ndi theka la ankhondo a Israeli onse anaperekeza mfumu.
41 Uye varume vose veIsraeri vakauya kuna mambo vakati kwaari, “Hama dzedu, varume veJudha, vakabireiko mambo vakamuuyisa neimba yake mhiri kweJorodhani, pamwe chete navanhu vake vose?”
Kenaka Aisraeli onse amabwera kwa mfumu nʼkumati kwa iye, “Nʼchifukwa chiyani abale athu, anthu a ku Ayuda, anakubani mfumu, nawoloka nanu Yorodani inu ndi banja lanu, pamodzi ndi anthu ake onse?”
42 Varume vose veJudha vakapindura varume veIsraeri vachiti, “Takaita izvi nokuti mambo ihama yedu yapedyo. Seiko imi matsamwiswa nazvo? Tambodya here zvinhu zvamambo? Tambozvitorera kana chinhu chimwe chete here?”
Ayuda onse anayankha Aisraeli kuti, “Ife timachita zimenezi chifukwa mfumu ndi mʼbale wathu. Nʼchifukwa chiyani inu mwapsa mtima ndi zimenezi? Kodi ife tinadya chakudya chilichonse cha mfumu? Kodi chilipo chimene ife tatenga kukhala chathu?”
43 Ipapo varume veIsraeri vakapindura varume veJudha vakati, “Tine migove gumi muna mambo; uye zvisiri izvozvo chete, Dhavhidhi ndowedu kukunda imi. Saka seiko imi muchitizvidza? Ko, hatizisu takatanga kutaura kuti mambo adzoke here?” Asi varume veJudha vakapindura nehasha kwazvo kupfuura varume veIsraeri.
Aisraeli anayankha Ayuda kuti, “Ife ndi magawo khumi mwa mfumu imeneyi, ndipo kuwonjezera apo, ife tili ndi zinthu zambiri mwa Davide kuposa inu. Tsono nʼchifukwa chiyani mukutichita chipongwe? Kodi ife si amene tinayamba kunena za kubweretsa mfumu yathu?” Koma anthu a Yuda anayankha mwaukali kwambiri kupambana anthu a ku Israeli.
