2 Samweli 20

1 Ikatukia pia kuwa katika eneo lilelile kulikuwa mfanya fujo jina lake Sheba mwana wa Bikri Mbenjamini. Akapiga tarumbeta na kusema, “Sisi hatuna sehemu katika Daudi, wala hatuna urithi katika mwana wa Yese. Haya kila mtu na aende nyumbani kwake, Israeli.”

and there to encounter: chanced man Belial and name his Sheba son: child Bichri man [Ben]jaminite and to blow in/on/with trumpet and to say nothing to/for us portion in/on/with David and not inheritance to/for us in/on/with son: child Jesse man: anyone to/for tent his Israel

2 Hivyo watu wote wa Israeli wakamwacha Daudi na kumfuata Sheba mwana wa Bikri. Lakini watu wa Yuda wakamfuata mfalme wao kwa karibu sana, kutoka Yordani njia yote hadi Yerusalemu.

and to ascend: rise all man Israel from after David after Sheba son: child Bichri and man Judah to cleave in/on/with king their from [the] Jordan and till Jerusalem

3 Daudi alipofika katika kasri lake huko Yerusalemu, akawachukua masuria aliokuwa amewaacha kulitunza kasri, na akawaweka katika nyumba chini ya uangalizi. Aliwaandalia mahitaji yao lakini hakulala nao tena. Hivyo walikuwa wametengwa hadi siku ya kufa kwao, waliishi kama wajane.

and to come (in): come David to(wards) house: home his Jerusalem and to take: take [the] king [obj] ten woman: wife concubine which to rest to/for to keep: guard [the] house: home and to give: put them house: home charge and to sustain them and to(wards) them not to come (in): come and to be to constrain till day to die they widowhood living

4 Kisha mfalme akamwambia Amasa, “Uwaite watu wa Yuda ndani ya siku hizi tatu; wewe pia uwepo hapa.”

and to say [the] king to(wards) Amasa to cry out to/for me [obj] man Judah three day and you(m. s.) here to stand: stand

5 Hivyo Amasa akaenda kuwaalika watu wote wa Yuda kwa pamoja, lakini akatumia muda mrefu kulika mfalme alivyokuwa amemwamuru.

and to go: went Amasa to/for to cry out [obj] Judah (and to delay *Q(K)*) from [the] meeting: time appointed which to appoint him

6 Hivyo Daudi akamwambia Abishai, “Sasa Sheba mwana wa Bikri atatufanyia madhara zaidi ya Absalomu. Chukua watumishi wa bwana wako, askari wangu, na umfuatie asije akaingia katika mji wenye ngome na kututoroka.”

and to say David to(wards) Abishai now be evil to/for us Sheba son: child Bichri from Absalom you(m. s.) to take: take [obj] servant/slave lord your and to pursue after him lest to find to/for him city to gather/restrain/fortify and to rescue eye: before(the eyes) our

7 Ndipo watu wa Yoabu wakamfuatia, pamoja na Wakerethi na Wapelethi na mashujaa wote. Wakatoka Yerusalemu ili kumfuatia Sheba mwana wa Bikri.

and to come out: come after him human Joab and [the] Cherethite and [the] Pelethite and all [the] mighty man and to come out: come from Jerusalem to/for to pursue after Sheba son: child Bichri

8 Walipokuwa katika jiwe kubwa lililoko Gibeoni, Amasa akaja kuwalaki. Yoabu alikuwa amevaa silaha ya vita aliyokuwa ameivaa, alikuwa pia na upanga uliokuwa umefungwa na mkanda katika kiuno chake. Kadili alivyoendelea mbele upanga ukadondoka.

they(masc.) with [the] stone [the] great: large which in/on/with Gibeon and Amasa to come (in): come to/for face: before their and Joab to gird garment his clothing his (and upon him *Q(k)*) belt sword to join upon loin his in/on/with razor her and he/she/it to come out: come and to fall: fall

9 Hivyo Yoabu akamwambia Amasa, “Haujambo binamu yangu?” Kwa utaratibu Yoabu akakishika kidevu cha Amasa kwa mkono wake wa kulia ili ambusu.

and to say Joab to/for Amasa peace: well-being you(m. s.) brother: compatriot my and to grasp hand right Joab in/on/with beard Amasa to/for to kiss to/for him

10 Amasa hakutambua kwamba kulikuwa na jambia katika mkono wa kushoto wa Yoabu. Yoabu akamchoma Amasa tumboni na matumbo yake yakadondoka chini. Wala Yoabu hakumpiga tena, na Amasa akafa. Hivyo Yoabu na Abishai nduguye wakamfuatia Sheba mwana wa Bikri.

and Amasa not to keep: look at in/on/with sword which in/on/with hand Joab and to smite him in/on/with her to(wards) [the] belly and to pour: pour belly his land: soil [to] and not to repeat to/for him and to die and Joab and Abishai brother: male-sibling his to pursue after Sheba son: child Bichri

11 Kisha mmoja wa watu wa Yoabu akasimama kando ya Amasa naye akasema, “Aliye upande wa Yoabu na aliyeupande wa Daudi na amfuate Yoabu.”

and man to stand: stand upon him from youth Joab and to say who? which to delight in in/on/with Joab and who? which to/for David after Joab

12 Amasa akawa anagalagala katika damu yake katikati ya njia. Mtu yule alipoona kwamba watu wote wamesimama, akambeba Amasa na kumweka shambani kando ya njia. Akatupa vazi juu yake kwa maana aliona kila mmoja aliyekuja alisimamaa pale.

and Amasa to roll in/on/with blood in/on/with midst ([the] highway *LA(bh)*) and to see: see [the] man for to stand: stand all [the] people and to turn: turn [obj] Amasa from [the] highway [the] land: country and to throw upon him garment like/as as which to see: see all [the] to come (in): come upon him and to stand: stand

13 Baada ya Amasa kuondolewa njiani watu wote wakamfuata Yoabu katika kumfuatia Sheba mwana wa Bikri.

like/as as which to thrust away from [the] highway to pass all man after Joab to/for to pursue after Sheba son: child Bichri

14 Sheba akazipita kabila zote za Israeli mpaka Abeli wa Beth Maaka, na katika nchi yote ya Berite ambao pia walijikusanya pamoja pia na kumfuatia Sheba.

and to pass in/on/with all tribe Israel Abel-beth-maachah [to] and Abel-beth-maachah Abel-beth-maachah and all [the] Bichrites (and to gather *Q(K)*) and to come (in): come also after him

15 Walimpata na kumzingira huko Abeli wa Bethi Maaka. Wakajenga buruji ya kuhusuru mji nyuma ya ukuta. Jeshi lote lilokuwa pamoja na Yoabu likaugongagonga ukuta ili uanguke.

and to come (in): come and to confine upon him in/on/with Abel-beth-maachah [to] Abel-beth-maachah [the] Abel-beth-maachah and to pour: build siege mound mound to(wards) [the] city and to stand: stand in/on/with rampart and all [the] people: soldiers which with Joab to ruin to/for to fall: fall [the] wall

16 Ndipo mwanamke mwerevu akapiga kelele kutoka ndani ya mji, “Sikiliza, Yoabu, tafadhari sikiliza! Sogea karibu nami ili niongee nawe.”

and to call: call to woman wise from [the] city to hear: hear to hear: hear to say please to(wards) Joab to present: come till here/thus and to speak: speak to(wards) you

17 Hivyo Yoabu akakaribia, mwanamke akamwambia, “Je wewe ni Yoabu? Akajibu, “ni mimi.” mwanamke akamwambia, “Sikiliza maneno ya mtumishi wako.” Akajibu, “Nasikiliza.”

and to present: come to(wards) her and to say [the] woman you(m. s.) Joab and to say I and to say to/for him to hear: hear word maidservant your and to say to hear: hear I

18 Ndipo aliposema,”Hapo zamani ilisemwa, 'Bila shaka tafuteni ushauri huko Abeli,' na kwamba ushauri huo utakata maneno.

and to say to/for to say to speak: speak to speak: speak in/on/with first: previous to/for to say to ask to ask in/on/with Abel and so to finish

19 Sisi ni mji ulio miongoni mwa miji yenye nguvu na aminifu sana katika Israeli. Mnataka kuharibu mji ambao ni mama katika Israeli. Kwa nini unataka kuumeza urithi wa Yahwe?”

I to ally faithful Israel you(m. s.) to seek to/for to die city and mother in/on/with Israel to/for what? to swallow up inheritance LORD

20 Ndipo Yoabu alipojibu na kusema, “Iwe mbali, iwe mbali nami, hata nikameze au kuharibu.

and to answer Joab and to say forbid forbid to/for me if to swallow up and if to ruin

21 Hiyo si kweli. Lakini mtu kutoka katika nchi ya milima ya Efraimu, aitwaye Sheba mwana wa Bikri, ameinua mkono wake kinyume cha mfalme, kinyume cha Daudi. Mtoeni yeye nami nitauacha mji.” Mwanamke akamwambia Yoabu, “Utarushiwa kichwa chake kutoka juu ya ukuta.”

not so [the] word: thing for man from mountain: hill country Ephraim Sheba son: child Bichri name his to lift: fight hand his in/on/with king in/on/with David to give: give [obj] him to/for alone him and to go: went from upon [the] city and to say [the] woman to(wards) Joab behold head his to throw to(wards) you about/through/for [the] wall

22 Kisha mwanamke akawaendea watu wote wa mji kwa hekima yake. Wakakiondoa kichwa cha Sheba mwana wa Bikri na kumrushia Yoabu. Ndipo alipopiga tarumbeta na watu wa Yoabu wakauacha mji kila mtu nyumbani kwake. Na Yoabu akarejea Yerusalemu kwa mfalme.

and to come (in): come [the] woman to(wards) all [the] people in/on/with wisdom her and to cut: cut [obj] head Sheba son: child Bichri and to throw to(wards) Joab and to blow in/on/with trumpet and to scatter from upon [the] city man: anyone to/for tent: home his and Joab to return: return Jerusalem to(wards) [the] king

23 Yoabu alikuwa juu ya jeshi lote la Israeli na Benaya mwana wa Yehoiada alikuwa juu ya Wakerethi na Wapelethi.

and Joab to(wards) all [the] army Israel and Benaiah son: child Jehoiada upon ([the] Cherethite *Q(K)*) and upon [the] Pelethite

24 Adoramu alikuwa juu ya watu waliofanya kazi ya shokoa na Yehoshafati mwana wa Ahiludi alikuwa mkumbushaji.

and Adoram upon [the] taskworker and Jehoshaphat son: child Ahilud [the] to remember

25 Sheva alikuwa mwandishi, na Sadoki na Abiathari walikuwa makuhani.

(and Sheva *Q(K)*) secretary and Zadok and Abiathar priest

26 Ira wa Yairi alikuwa mhudumu mkuu wa Daudi.
