< 2 Samweli 13 >

1 Ikawa baada ya hayo kwamba Amnoni mwana wa Daudi, akamtamani sana Tamari dada yake wa kambo aliyekuwa mzuri, alikuwa tumbo moja na Absalome, mwana wingine wa Daudi.
Forsothe it was doon aftir these thingis, that Amon, the sone of Dauid, louyde the faireste sistir, Thamar bi name, of Absolon, sone of Dauid.
2 Amnoni akasononeka sana kiasi cha kuugua kwa ajili ya Tamari dada yake. Tamari alikuwa bikra, na hivyo ilionekana haiwezekani Amnoni kufanya neno lolote kwake.
And Amon perischide greetli for hir, so that he was sijk for `the loue of hir. For whanne she was a virgyn, it semyde hard to hym, that he schulde do ony thing vnonestli with hir.
3 Lakini Amnoni alikuwa na rafiki jina lake Yehonadabu mwana wa Shama, nduguye Daudi.
Forsothe a freend, Jonadab bi name, sone of Semmaa, brother of Dauid, `was to Amon; Jonadab was a ful prudent man.
4 Yehonadabu alikuwa mtu mwelevu sana. Akamwambia Amnoni, “Kwa nini, mwana wa mfalme, unadhoofika kila siku? Kwa nini uniambii? Ndipo Amnoni akamjibu, “Nampenda Tamari, dada yake Absalome ndugu yangu.”
Which seide to Amon, Sone of the kyng, whi art thou maad feble so bi leenesse bi alle daies? whi schewist thou not to me? And Amon seide to him, Y loue Thamar, the sister of my brother Absolon.
5 Ndipo Yehonadabu akamwambia, “Lala kitandani mwako na ujifanye kuwa mgonjwa. Wakati baba yako atakapo kuja kukuona, mwambie, Tafadhari mtume dada yangu Tamari aandaye chakula mbele yangu, ili kwamba nikione na kula kutoka mkononi mwake?”
And Jonadab answeride to hym, Li thou on thi bed, and feyne thou sikenesse; and whanne thi fadir cometh, that he visyte thee, seie thou to hym, Y preye, come Thamar, my sister, that sche yyue mete to me, and make a seew, that Y ete of hir hond.
6 Hivyo Amnoni akalala na kujifanya kuwa mgonjwa. Mfalme alipokuja kumwona, Amnoni akamwambia mfalme, “Tafadhari mtume Tamari dada yangu aandaye chakula kwa ajili ya ugonjwa wangu mbele yangu ili kwamba nikile kutoka mkononi mwake.
Therfor Amon lay doun, and `bigan as to be sijk. And whanne the kyng hadde come to visite him, Amon seide to the kyng, Y biseche, come Thamar, my sistir, that sche make twei soupyngis bifor my iyen, and that Y take of hir hond meete maad redi.
7 Ndipo Daudi katika kasri lake akatuma neno kwa Tamari, kusema, “Nenda katika nyumba ya nduguyo Amnoni na umwandalie chakula. Hivyo
Therfor Dauid sente to the hows of Thamar, and seide, Come thou in to the hows of Amon, thi brother, and make thou seew to hym.
8 Tamari akaenda katika nyumba ya Amnoni nduguye alipokuwa amelala. Akachukua donge na kulifinyanga na kuandaa mkate mbele zake, kisha akauoka.
And Thamar cam in to the hows of Amon, hir brother. Sotheli he lai; and sche took mele, and medlide, and made moist bifor hise iyen, and sethide soupyngis;
9 Akachukua kikaangio na kumpa mkate, lakini akakataa kula. Kisha Amnoni akawambia waliokuwepo, “Kila mtu na aondoke.” Hivyo kila mmoja akaondoka.
and sche took that, that sche hadde sode, and helde out, and settide byfor hym, and he nolde ete. And Amon seide, Putte ye out alle men fro me. And whanne thei hadden put out alle men,
10 Amnoni akamwambia Tamari, “Lete chakula chumbani kwangu nikile katika mkono wako.” Tamari akachukua mkate aliokuwa ameuandaa, na kuuleta katika chumba cha Amnoni kaka yake.
Amon seide to Thamar, Bere the mete in to the closet, that Y ete of thin hond. Therfor Thamar took the soupingis whiche sche hadde maad, and brouyte in to Amon, hir brother, in the closet.
11 Alipoleta chakula kwake, Amnoni akamshikilia na kumwambia, “Njoo, ulale nami, dada yangu.”
And whanne sche hadde proferid mete to hym, he took hir, and seide, Come thou, my sistir, li thou with me.
12 Yeye akamjibu, “Hapana, kaka yangu, usinilazimishe, kwani hakuna jambo kama hili linapaswa kufanyika katika Israeli. Usifanye jambo la aibu kiasi hiki!
And sche answeride to hym, My brother, nyle thou, nyle thou oppresse me, for this is not leueful in Israel; nyle thou do this foli.
13 Nitakwenda wapi ili nijiepushe na aibu ambayo jambo hili litaileta juu ya maisha yangu? Na tendo hili litakuonesha kuwa mpumbavu usiye na aibu katika Israeli yote. Tafadhari, ninakuomba uongee na mfalme. Yeye atakuruhusu unioe.”
For Y schal not mow bere my schenschip, and thou schalt be as oon of the vnwise men in Israel; but rather speke thou to the kyng, and he schal not denye me to thee.
14 Lakini Amnoni hakuweza kumsikiliza. Kwa kuwa alikuwa zaidi akamkamata na akalala naye.
Sotheli he nolde assente to hir preieris; but he was strengere in myytis, and oppresside hir, and lay with hir.
15 Kisha Amnoni akamchukia Tamari kwa chuki kuu. Akamchukia zaidi ya jinsi alivyokuwa amemtamani. Amnoni akamwambia, “Inuka na uondoke.”
And `Amon hadde hir hateful bi ful grete haterede, so that the hatrede was gretter, bi which he hatide hir, than the loue bi which he louyde hir bifor. And Amon seide to hir, Rise thou, and go.
16 Lakini yeye akamjibu, “Hapana! kwa maana uovu wa kunifanya ni uondoke ni mbaya zaidi ya kile ulichonitenda!” Lakini Amnoni hakumsikiliza.
And sche answeride to hym, This yuel is more which thou doist now ayens me, and puttist me out, than that, that thou didist bifore. And he nolde here hir; but whanne the child was clepide,
17 Badala yake, akamwita mtumishi wake na akasema, “Mwondoe mwanamke huyu mbele yangu, na uufunge mlango nyuma yake.”
that mynystride to hym, he seide, Putte thou out this womman fro me, and close thou the dore aftir hir.
18 Hivyo mtumishi wake akamtoa na kufunga mlango. Tamari alikuwa amevaa vazi lilinakishiwa kwani ndivyo binti za wafalme waliobikra valivyokuwa wakivaa.
And sche was clothid with a coote doun to the heele; for the kyngis douytris virgyns vsiden siche clothis. Therfor the mynystre of Amon puttide hir out, and closide the dore aftir hir.
19 Tamari akaweka majivu juu ya kichwa chake na akalirarua vazi lake
And sche spreynte aische to hir heed, whanne the coote to `the heele was to-rent, and whanne the hondis weren put on hir heed, and sche yede entrynge and criynge.
20 Absalome, kaka yake, akamwambia, “Amnoni, kaka yako, amekuwa nawe? Lakini sasa nyamaza, dada yangu. Yeye ni kaka yako. Usiliweke hili moyoni.” Hivyo Tamari akakaa peke yake katika nyumba ya Absalomu kaka yake.
Forsothe Absolon, hir brother, seide to hir, Whether Amon, thi brothir, hath leyn with thee? But `now, sister, be stille; he is thi brother, and turmente not thin herte for this thing. Therfor Thamar dwellide morenynge in the hows of Absolon, hir brothir.
21 Mfalme Daudi aliposikia haya yote, alikasirika sana.
Forsothe whanne `kyng Dauid hadde herd these wordis, he was ful sori, and he nolde make sore the spyrit of Amon, his sone; for he louyde Amon, for he was the firste gendrid `to hym.
22 Absalome hakusema chochote kwa Amnoni, kwa maana Absalome alimchukia kwa kile alichokifanya, kumdhalilisha Tamari, dada yake.
Forsothe Absolon spak not to Amon, nether yuel nether good; for Absolon hatide Amon, for he hadde defoulid Thamar, his sistir.
23 Ikawa baada ya miaka miwili mizima Absalomu akawa na wakatao kondoo manyoya wakifanya kazi huko Baali Hazori, ulioko karibu na Efraim, naye Absalomu akawaarika wana wote wa mfalme kufika huko.
Forsothe it was doon aftir the tyme of twei yeer, that the scheep of Absolon weren shorun in Baalasor, which is bisidis Effraym. And Absolon clepide alle the sones of the kyng.
24 Absalomu akamwendea mfalme na kusema, “Tazama sasa, mtumishi wako anao wakatao kondoo manyoya. Tafadhari, naomba mfalme na watumishi wake waende nami, mtumishi wako.”
And he cam to the kyng, and seide to hym, Lo! the scheep of thi seruaunt ben schorun; Y preye, come the king with hise seruauntis to his seruaunt.
25 Mfalme akamjibu Absalomu, “hapana mwanangu, tusiende sisi yote kwani tutakuwa mzigo kwako.” Absalomu akamhakikishia mfalme, lakini yeye asikubali kwenda, ila alimbariki Absalomu.
And the kyng seide to Absolon, Nyle thou, my sone, nyle thou preye, that alle we come, and greeue thee. Forsothe whanne he constreynede Dauid, and he nolde go, he blesside Absolon.
26 Kisha Absalomu akasema, “kama sivyo, basi tafadhari mwache ndugu yangu Amnoni aende nasi.” Mfalme akamuliza, “Kwa nini Amnoni aende nanyi?”
And Absolon seide to Dauid, If thou nylt come, Y byseche, come nameli Amon, my brother, with vs. And the kyng seide to hym, It is no nede, that he go with thee.
27 Absalomu akamsihi Daudi, hivyo akamruhusu Amnoni na wana wengine wa mfalme kwenda naye.
Therfor Absolon constreynede hym; and he delyuerede with him Amon, and alle the sones of the kyng. And Absolon hadde maad a feeste as the feeste of a kyng.
28 Absalomu akawaamuru watumishi wake kusema, “Sikilizeni kwa makini. Amnoni atakapokuwa amelewa mvinyo, na nitakapowambia, 'Mpigeni Amnoni,' msiogope mwueni. Je siyo mimi niliyewamru? Mwe jasiri na hodari.”
Sotheli Absolon comaundide to hise children, and seide, Aspie ye, whanne Amon is drunkun of wyn, and Y seie to you, Smyte ye, and sle hym. Nyle ye drede, for Y am that comaunde to you; be ye strengthid, and be ye stronge men.
29 Hivyo watumishi wa Absalome wakamtendea Amnoni kama walivyoamriwa. Kisha wana wote wa mfalme wakainuka na kila mmoja akapanda nyumbu wake akakimbia.
Therfor the children of Absolon diden ayens Amon, as Absolon hadde comaundide to hem; and alle the sones of the kyng risiden, and stieden ech on his mule, and fledden.
30 Hata ikawa wakati wakiwa njiani habari zikafika kwa Daudi kusema, “Absalomu ameua wana wote wa mfalme na hakuna hata mmoja aliyesalia.”
And whanne thei yeden yit in the weie, fame cam to the kyng, and seide, Absolon hath kild alle the sones of the king, and `nameli not oon lefte of hem.
31 Kisha mfalme akainuka na kurarua mavazi yake na kujilaza juu ya sakafu; watumishi wake wote wakasimama karibu naye mavazi yao yameraruriwa.
Therfor the kyng roos, and to-rente hise clothis, and felde doun on the erthe; and alle hise seruauntis that stoden nyy to hym, to-renten her clothis.
32 Yehonadabu mwana wa Shama, nduguye Daudi, akajibu na kusema, “Bwana wangu asidhani kuwa vijana wote ambao ni wana wa mfalme wameuawa, kwa maana ni Amnoni pekee ndiye aliyeuawa. Absalomu alilipanga jambo hili tangu siku ile Amnoni alivyomwaribu Tamari, dada yake.
Sotheli Jonadab, sone of Semmaa, brother of Dauid, answeride and seide, My lord the kyng, gesse not, that alle the children, and sones of the kyng, ben slayn; Amon aloone is deed, for he was set in hatrede to Absolon, fro the day in which he oppresside Thamar, his sistir.
33 Kwa hiyo basi, bwana wangu mfalme asiiweke taarifa hii moyoni, kudhani kwamba wana wote wa mfalme wameuawa, kwani aliyeuawa ni Amnoni peke yake.”
Now therfor, my lord the kyng, set not this word on his herte, and seie, Alle the sones of the kyng ben slayn; for Amon aloone is deed.
34 Absalomu akakimbia. Mtumishi aliyekuwa akiangalia akainua macho yake na kuona watu wengi wakija njiani kando ya kilima upande wake wa magharibi.
Forsothe Absolon fledde. And a child aspiere reiside hise iyen, and bihelde, and lo! myche puple cam bi a weye out of the comyn weie bi the side of the hil.
35 Kisha Yehonadabu akamwambia mfalme, “Tazama, wana wa mfalme wanakuja. kama mtumishi wako alivyosema.”
And Jonadab seide to the kyng, Lo! the sones of the kyng comen; bi the word of thi seruaunt, so it is doon.
36 Ikawa mara alipomaliza kusema wana wa mfalme wakafika, wakainua sauti zao na kulia. Na mfalme pamoja na watumishi wake wote pia wakalia kwa uchungu.
And whanne he hadde ceessid to speke, also the sones of the kyng apperiden; and thei entriden, and reisiden her vois, and wepten; but also the kyng and alle his seruauntis wepten bi ful greet wepyng.
37 Lakini Absalomu akakimbia na kwenda kwa Talmai mwana wa Amihudi, mfalme wa Geshuri. Mfalme akaomboleza kila siku kwa ajili ya mwanaye.
Forsothe Absolon fledde, and yede to Tholmai, sone of Amyur, the kyng of Gessur. Therfor Dauid biweilide his sone Amon in many daies.
38 Hivyo Absalomu akakimbia na kwenda Geshuri na akakaa huko kwa miaka mitatu.
Forsothe Absolon, whanne he hadde fled, and hadde come in to Gessur, was there thre yeer.
39 Moyo wa mfalme Daudi ukatamani kwenda kumwona Absalomu, kwa maana alikuwa amefarijika kwa habari ya kifo cha Amnoni.
And Dauid ceesside to pursue Absolon, for he was coumfortid on the deeth of Amon.
