2 Samweli 1
1 Baada ya kifo cha Sauli, Daud alirudi kutoka kuwashambulia Waamaleki na akakaa Siklagi kwa siku mbili.
And it was after [the] death of Saul and David he returned from defeating Amalek and he remained David in Ziklag days two.
2 Siku ya tatu, mtu mmoja alikuja kutoka kambi ya Sauli nguo zake zikiwa zimeraruliwa na akiwa na vumbi juu ya kichwa chake. Alipofika kwa Daudi alinamisha uso wake chini akajifanya yeye mwenyewe kuwa si kitu.
And it was - on the day third and there! a man [was] coming from the camp from with Saul and garments his [were] torn and earth [was] on head his and it was when came he to David and he fell [the] ground towards and he bowed down.
3 Daudi akamuliza, “Unatoka wapi?” Yeye akajibu, “Nimeponyoka kutoka kambi ya Israeli.”
And he said to him David where? from this are you coming and he said to him from [the] camp of Israel I have escaped.
4 Daudi akamwambia, “Tafadhari nieleze jinsi mambo yalivyokuwa.” Akajibu, “Watu walikimbia kutoka vitani. Wengi wameanguka, na wengi wao wameuawa. Sauli na Yonathani mwanawe pia wameuawa.”
And he said to him David what? was it the word tell please to me and he said that it has fled the people from the battle and also [surely] a multitude has fallen of the people and they have died and also Saul and Jonathan son his they have died.
5 Daudi akamwuliza kijana, “unajuaje kuwa Sauli na Yonathani mwanawe wameuawa?”
And he said David to the young man who had told to him how? do you know that he has died Saul and Jonathan son his.
6 Yule kijana akajibu, “Kwa bahati nilikuwa juu ya Mlima Gilboa, na pale alikuwepo Sauli ameegemea mkuki wake, na magari ya farasi na waongozaji walikuwa karibu kumkamata.
And he said the young man - who had told to him [surely] by chance I found myself on [the] mountain of Gilboa and there! Saul [was] leaning on spear his and there! the chariotry and [the] owners of the horses they overtook him.
7 Sauli alipogeuka aliniona na akaniita. Nikajibu, 'Mimi hapa.'
And he turned behind him and he saw me and he called to me and I said here [am] I.
8 Akaniuliza, 'Wewe ni nani?' Nikamjibu, 'Mimi ni Mwamaleki,'
And he said to me who? [are] you (and I said *Q(K)*) to him [am] an Amalekite I.
9 Akaniambia, Tafadhari simama juu yangu uniuwe, kwa kuwa shida kubwa imenipata, lakini uhai ungalimo ndani yangu.'
And he said to me stand please over me and kill me for it has seized me dizziness for all still life my [is] in me.
10 Hivyo nilisimama juu yake nikamuuwa, kwa maana nilijua kwamba asingeweza kuishi baada ya kuwa ameanguka. Ndipo nikachukuwa taji iliyokuwa juu ya kichwa chake na kikuku kilichokuwa mkononi mwake, na nimevileta hapa kwako, bwana wangu.”
And I stood over him and I killed him for I knew that not he will live after had fallen he and I took the crown - which [was] on head his and an armlet which [was] on arm his and I brought them to lord my here.
11 Kisha Daudi akararua mavazi yake, na watu wote waliokuwa pamoja naye wakafanya vilevile.
And he took hold David (on garments his *Q(K)*) and he tore them and also all the men who [were] with him.
12 Walilia, wakaomboleza na kufunga mpaka jioni kwa ajili ya Sauli, Yonathani mwanawe, watu wa Yahwe, na kwa ajili ya nyumba ya Israeli kwa maana wameanguka kwa upanga.
And they mourned and they wept and they fasted until the evening on Saul and on Jonathan son his and on [the] people of Yahweh and on [the] house of Israel for they had fallen by the sword.
13 Daudi akamwambia yule kijana, “Unatokea wapi?” Akajibu, mimi ni kijana wa mgeni Mwamaleki.”
And he said David to the young man who had told to him where? from this [are] you and he said [am the] son of a man a sojourner an Amalekite I.
14 Daudi akamwambia, “Kwa nini haukuogopa kumwua mfalme, mtiwa mafuta wa Yahwe kwa mkono wako?”
And he said to him David how? not were you afraid to stretch out hand your to destroy [the] [one] anointed of Yahweh.
15 Daudi akamwita mmojawapo wa vijana na akamwambia, “Nenda ukamuue.” Hivyo kijana huyo akaenda na kumpiga hata ata chini, Mwamaleki akafa.
And he called David to one from the young men and he said draw near fall on him and he struck down him and he died.
16 Ndipo Daudi akamwambia Mwamaleke aliyekufa, “Damu yako iwe juu ya kichwa chako kwa kuwa kinywa chako kimeshuhudia dhidi yako kusema, Nimemuua mfalme mtiwa mafuta wa Yahwe.
And he said to him David (blood your *Q(K)*) [be] on head your for own mouth your it has testified against you saying I I killed [the] [one] anointed of Yahweh.
17 Ndipo Daudi akaimba wimbo wa maombolezo juu ya Sauli na Yonathani mwanawe.
And he lamented David the lamentation this on Saul and on Jonathan son his.
18 Akawaamuru watu kuufundisha wimbo wa Bow kwa wana wa Yuda, ambao umeandikwa katika Kitabu cha Yashari.
And he said to teach [the] descendants of Judah Bow here! [it is] written on [the] scroll of the Jashar.
19 “Utukufu wako, Israel, umeondolewa, umeondolewa juu ya mahali pako pa juu! Jinsi mwenye nguvu alivyoanguka!
The beauty O Israel on high places your [is] slain how! they have fallen [the] mighty [ones].
20 Msiiseme katika Gathi, msiitangaze katika mitaa ya Ashikeloni, ili binti za wafilisti wasifurahi, ili binti za wasiotailiwa wasisherehekee.
May not you tell in Gath may not you bear news in [the] streets of Ashkelon lest they should rejoice [the] daughters of [the] Philistines lest they should exult [the] daughters of the uncircumcised.
21 Milima ya Gilboa, kusiwe na umande au mvua juu yenu. wala mashamba yasitoe nafaka kwa ajili ya sadaka, kwa maana hapo ngao ya mwenye nguvu imeharibiwa. Ngao ya Sauli haiwezi tena kutiwa mafuta.
O mountains in Gilboa may not dew and may not rain [be] on you and fields of contributions for there it was defiled [the] shield of [the] mighty [ones] [the] shield of Saul not [was] anointed with oil.
22 Kutoka katika damu ya waliouawa, kutoka katika miili ya wenye nguvu, upinde wa Yonathani haukurudi nyuma, na upanga wa Sauli haukurudi patupu.
From [the] blood of [those] slain from [the] fat of [the] mighty [ones] [the] bow of Jonathan not it turned back backwards and [the] sword of Saul not it returned empty.
23 Sauli na Yonathani walikuwa wakipendwa na walikuwa wenye neema maishani, hata wakati wa mauti yao walikuwa pamoja. Walikuwa na kasi kuliko tai, walikuwa na nguvu kuliko simba.
Saul and Jonathan lovable and pleasant in lives their and in death their not they were separated more than eagles they were swift more than lions they were strong.
24 Enyi binti wa Israeli lieni juu ya Sauli, aliyewavika mavazi ya thamani pamoja na vito vya thamani, na aliyetia mapambo ya dhahabu katika mavazi yenu.
O daughters of Israel because of Saul weep who clothed you scarlet with luxuries who brought up ornament[s] of gold on clothing your.
25 Jinsi wenye nguvu walivyoanguka vitani! Yonathani ameuawa juu ya mahali pako pa juu.
How! they have fallen [the] mighty [ones] in [the] middle of the battle Jonathan on high places your [is] slain.
26 Nimesikitishwa sana kwa ajili yako, Yonathani ndugu yangu. Ulikuwa mpendwa wangu sana. Upendo wako kwangu ulikuwa wa ajabu, ukipita upendo wa wanawake.
It is distress to me on you O brother my Jonathan you were pleasant to me very it was wonderful love your to me more than [the] love of women.
27 Jinsi wenye nguvu walivyoanguka na silaha za vita zimeteketea!”
How! they have fallen [the] mighty [ones] and they have perished [the] weapons of war.
