2 Samweli 1
1 Baada ya kifo cha Sauli, Daudi alipokuwa amerudi kutoka kuwashinda Waamaleki, Daudi alikaa siku mbili huko Siklagi.
Forsothe it was doon, after that Saul was deed, that Dauid turnede ayen fro the sleyng of Amalech, and dwellide twei daies in Sichelech.
2 Siku ya tatu akaja mtu mwenye nguo zilizoraruka na mavumbi kichwani mwake kutoka kwenye kambi ya Sauli. Alipomjia Daudi, akajitupa chini ili kumpa heshima.
Forsothe in the thridde dai a man apperide, comynge fro the castels of Saul with the cloth to-rent, and his heed spreynt with dust; and as he cam to Dauid, he felde on his face, and worschipide.
3 Daudi akamuuliza, “Wewe umetoka wapi?” Akamjibu, “Nimetoroka kutoka kambi ya Waisraeli.”
And Dauid seide to hym, Fro whennus comest thou? Which seide to Dauid, Y fledde fro the castels of Israel.
4 Daudi akamuuliza, “Ni nini kilichotokea? Niambie.” Akasema, “Watu walikimbia kutoka vitani. Wengi wao walianguka na kufa. Naye Sauli na Yonathani mwanawe wamekufa.”
And Dauid seide to hym, What is the word which is doon; schewe thou to me. And he seide, The puple fledde fro the batel, and many of the puple felden, and ben deed; but also Saul, and Jonathas, his sonne, perischyden.
5 Ndipo Daudi akamwambia huyo kijana aliyemletea taarifa, “Je, umefahamuje kwamba Sauli na Yonathani mwanawe wamekufa?”
And Dauid seide to the yong man, that telde to hym, Wherof woost thou, that Saul is deed, and Jonathas, his sonne?
6 Yule kijana akasema, “Nilijipata huko Mlima Gilboa, naye Sauli alikuwa huko akiegemea mkuki wake, na magari ya vita na wapanda farasi wa upande wa adui wakawa wamemkaribia sana.
And the yong man seide, that telde to hym, Bi hap Y cam in to the hil of Gelboe, and Saul lenyde on his spere; forsothe charis and knyytis neiyiden to hym;
7 Alipogeuka na kuniona, akaniita, nami nikasema, ‘Je, nifanye nini?’
and he turnede bihynde his bak, `and siy me, and clepide. To whom whanne Y hadde answeride, Y am present; he seide to me, Who art thou?
8 “Akaniuliza, ‘Wewe ni nani?’ “Nikamjibu, ‘Mimi ni Mwamaleki.’
And Y seide to hym, Y am a man of Amalech.
9 “Kisha akaniambia, ‘Nikaribie mimi na uniue! Niko katika maumivu makali ya kifo, lakini bado ningali hai.’
And he spak to me, Stonde thou on me, and sle me; for angwischis holden me, and yit al my lijf is in me.
10 “Kwa hiyo nikamkaribia nikamuua, kwa sababu nilijua kwamba baada ya kuanguka hangeweza kupona. Nami nikachukua lile taji lililokuwa kichwani mwake na utepe uliokuwa mkononi mwake nami nimevileta hapa kwa bwana wangu.”
And Y stood on hym, and Y killide hym; for Y wiste that he myyte not lyue aftir the fallyng; and Y took the diademe, that was in his heed, and the bye fro his arm, and Y brouyte hidur to thee, my lord.
11 Ndipo Daudi pamoja na watu wote waliokuwa pamoja naye wakazishika nguo zao na kuzirarua.
Forsothe Dauid took and to-rente hise clothis, and the men that weren with hym;
12 Wakaomboleza, wakalia pia na kufunga mpaka jioni kwa ajili ya Sauli na Yonathani mwanawe, kwa ajili ya jeshi la Bwana na nyumba ya Israeli, kwa sababu wameanguka kwa upanga.
and thei weiliden, and wepten, and fastiden `til to euentid, on Saul, and Jonathas, his sone, and on the puple of the Lord, and on the hows of Israel, for thei hadden feld bi swerd.
13 Daudi akamwambia yule kijana aliyemletea taarifa, “Wewe ni mwenyeji wa wapi?” Akamjibu, “Mimi ni mwana wa mgeni, Mwamaleki.”
And Dauid seide to the yong man, that telde to him, Of whennus art thou? And he answeride, Y am the sone of a man comelyng, of a man of Amalech.
14 Daudi akamuuliza, “Kwa nini hukuogopa kuinua mkono wako ili kumwangamiza mpakwa mafuta wa Bwana?”
And Dauid seide to him, Whi dreddist thou not to sende thine hond, that thou schuldist sle the crist of the Lord?
15 Kisha Daudi akamwita mmoja wa watu wake na kumwambia, “Nenda ukamuue!” Kwa hiyo akampiga, naye akafa.
And Dauid clepide oon of hise children, and seide, Go thou, and falle on hym. Which smoot that yong man, and he was deed.
16 Kwa maana Daudi alikuwa amemwambia, “Damu yako iwe juu ya kichwa chako mwenyewe. Kinywa chako mwenyewe kimeshuhudia dhidi yako uliposema, ‘Nilimuua mpakwa mafuta wa Bwana.’”
And Dauid seide to hym, Thi blood be on thin heed; for thi mouth spak ayens thee, and seide, Y killide the crist of the Lord.
17 Daudi akafanya maombolezo haya kuhusu Sauli na Yonathani mwanawe,
Forsooth Dauid biweilide sych a weilyng on Saul, and on Jonathas, his sone;
18 naye akaagiza kwamba watu wa Yuda wafundishwe ombolezo hili la upinde (ambalo limeandikwa katika Kitabu cha Yashari):
and comaundide, that thei schulden teche the sones of Juda weilyng, as it is writun in the Book of Just Men. And Dauid seyde, Israel, biholde thou, for these men that ben deed, woundid on thin hiye placis;
19 “Walio fahari yako, ee Israeli, wameuawa juu ya mahali pako palipoinuka. Jinsi wenye nguvu walivyoanguka!
the noble men of Israel ben slayn on thin hillis.
20 “Msilisimulie hili katika Gathi, msilitangaze hili katika barabara za Ashkeloni, binti za Wafilisti wasije wakafurahia, binti za hao wasiotahiriwa wasije wakashangilia.
Hou felden stronge men? nyle ye telle in Geth, nether telle ye in the weilottis of Ascolon; lest perauenture the douytris of Filisteis be glad, lest the douytris of vncircumcidid men `be glad.
21 “Enyi milima ya Gilboa, msipate umande wala mvua, wala mashamba yazaayo sadaka ya nafaka. Kwa maana huko ndiko ngao ya mwenye nguvu iliponajisiwa, ngao ya Sauli haitapakwa tena mafuta.
Hillis of Gelboe, neither dew nethir reyn come on you, nether the feeldis of firste fruytis be; for the scheeld of stronge men was cast awey there, the scheeld of Saul, as `if he were not anoyntid with oile.
22 Kutokana na damu ya waliouawa, kutokana na miili ya wenye nguvu, ule upinde wa Yonathani haukugeuka nyuma. Upanga wa Sauli haukurudi bure.
Of the blood of slayn men, of the fatnesse of strong men, the arewe of Jonathas yede neuer abak, and the swerd of Saul turnede not ayen void.
23 “Sauli na Yonathani, maishani walipendwa na kuneemeka, na katika kifo hawakutengana. Walikuwa wepesi kuliko tai, walikuwa na nguvu kuliko simba.
Saul and Jonathas amyable, and fair in her lijf, weren not departid also in deeth; thei weren swiftere than eglis, strongere than liouns.
24 “Enyi binti za Israeli, lieni kwa ajili ya Sauli, ambaye aliwavika nguo nyekundu na maridadi, ambaye aliremba mavazi yenu kwa mapambo ya dhahabu.
Douytris of Israel, wepe ye on Saul, that clothide you with fyn reed colourid in delicis, that yaf goldun ournementis to youre atyre.
25 “Tazama jinsi mashujaa walivyoanguka vitani! Yonathani ameuawa mahali pako palipoinuka.
Hou `felden doun stronge men in batel?
26 Nahuzunika kwa ajili yako, Yonathani ndugu yangu, kwangu ulikuwa mpendwa sana. Upendo wako kwangu ulikuwa wa ajabu, wa ajabu zaidi kuliko ule wa wanawake.
Jonathas was slayn in the hiye places. Y make sorewe on thee, my brother Jonathas, ful fair, `and amyable more than the loue of wymmen; as a modir loueth oon aloone sone, so Y louyde thee.
27 “Tazama jinsi mashujaa walivyoanguka! Silaha za vita zimeangamia!”
Hou therfor `felden doun stronge men, and armeris of batel perischide?
