2 Samuela 13

1 Pea hili eni naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, naʻe ʻia ʻApisalomi ko e foha ʻo Tevita, ʻae tuofefine naʻe hoihoifua, pea ko Tamaa ʻa hono hingoa; pea naʻe mamana kiate ia ʻa ʻAmanoni ko e foha ʻo Tevita.

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.

2 Pea ko e meʻa ʻi heʻene feinga mamahi ʻa ʻAmanoni, naʻa ne hoko ʻo mahakiʻia koeʻuhi ko hono tuofefine ko Tamaa; he ko e tāupoʻou ia; pea ko e meʻa fifilingataʻa kia ʻAmanoni haʻane fai ha meʻa kiate ia.

Amnoni akasononeka sana kiasi cha kuugua kwa ajili ya Tamari dada yake. Tamari alikuwa bikra, na hivyo ilionekana haiwezekani Amnoni kufanya neno lolote kwake.

3 Ka naʻe ai ʻae kaumeʻa ʻa ʻAmanoni, naʻe hingoa ko Sonatapi, ko e foha ʻo Simia ko e kāinga ʻo Tevita: pea ko e tangata kākā ʻaupito ʻa Sonatapi.

Lakini Amnoni alikuwa na rafiki jina lake Yehonadabu mwana wa Shama, nduguye Daudi.

4 Pea naʻa ne pehē kiate ia, “Ko e foha koe ʻoe tuʻi, pea ko e hā ʻoku pehē ai ho tutue ʻi he ʻaho kotoa pē? ʻIkai te ke tala mai kiate au?” Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ʻAmanoni kiate ia, “ʻOku ou ʻofa kia Tamaa, ko e tuofefine ʻo ʻApisalomi ko hoku tokoua.”

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.”

5 Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Sonatapi kiate ia, “Tokoto hifo koe ki ho mohenga, pea ke pehē ʻoku ke mahaki: pea ʻoka haʻu hoʻo tamai ke mamata kiate koe, te ke pehē kiate ia, ‘ʻOku ou kole kiate koe, tuku ke haʻu ʻa hoku tuofefine ko Tamaa, ke ne ʻomi ʻeku meʻakai, pea ne teuteu ʻeku meʻakai ʻi hoku ʻao, koeʻuhi ke u mamata ki ai, pea kai ia mei hono nima.’”

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?”

6 Ko ia naʻe tokoto ai ʻa ʻAmanoni, ʻo ne pehē kuo ne mahaki: pea ʻi heʻene haʻu ʻae tuʻi ke mamata kiate ia, naʻe pehē ʻe ʻAmanoni ki he tuʻi, “ʻOku ou kole kiate koe, tuku ke haʻu ʻa Tamaa ko hoku tuofefine, ke ne ngaohi ha foʻi mā ʻe ua ʻi hoku ʻao, koeʻuhi ke u kai ia mei hono nima.”

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.

7 Pea naʻe fekau ai ʻe Tevita ki he fale ʻo Tamaa, ʻo pehē, “ʻAlu leva ni ki he fale ʻo ʻAmanoni ko ho tuongaʻane, pea teuteu haʻane meʻakai.”

Ndipo Daudi katika kasri lake akatuma neno kwa Tamari, kusema, “Nenda katika nyumba ya nduguyo Amnoni na umwandalie chakula. Hivyo

8 Ko ia naʻe ʻalu ai ʻa Tamaa ki he fale ʻo ʻAmanoni ko hono tuongaʻane; ka kuo tokoto hifo ia. Pea naʻe toʻo ʻe ia ʻae mahoaʻa, pea ne natu ia, pea naʻa ne ngaohi ʻae ngaahi foʻi mā ʻi hono ʻao, pea naʻa ne taʻo ʻae ngaahi foʻi mā.

Tamari akaenda katika nyumba ya Amnoni nduguye alipokuwa amelala. Akachukua donge na kulifinyanga na kuandaa mkate mbele zake, kisha akauoka.

9 Pea naʻa ne toʻo mai ha ipu ʻo ne lilingi ia ʻi hono ʻao: ka naʻe ʻikai loto ia ke kai. Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ʻAmanoni, “Tuku kituʻa ʻae kau tangata kotoa pē meiate au.” Pea naʻa nau ʻalu kotoa pē kituʻa meiate ia.

Akachukua kikaangio na kumpa mkate, lakini akakataa kula. Kisha Amnoni akawambia waliokuwepo, “Kila mtu na aondoke.” Hivyo kila mmoja akaondoka.

10 Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ʻAmanoni kia Tamaa, “ʻOmi ʻae meʻakai ki loto fale, koeʻuhi ke u kai ia mei ho nima.” Pea naʻe hiki ʻe Tamaa ʻae ngaahi foʻi mā naʻa ne ngaohi, ʻo ne ʻomi ia ki loto fale kia ʻAmanoni ko hono tuongaʻane.

Amnoni akamwambia Tamari, “Lete chakula chumbani kwangu nikile katika mkono wako.” Tamari akachukua mkate aliokuwa ameuandaa, na kuuleta katika chumba cha Amnoni kaka yake.

11 Pea ʻi heʻene ʻomi ia kiate ia ke ne kai, naʻa ne puke ia, ʻo ne pehē ki ai, “Haʻu hoku tuofefine ke ta mohe mo au.”

Alipoleta chakula kwake, Amnoni akamshikilia na kumwambia, “Njoo, ulale nami, dada yangu.”

12 Pea naʻa ne pehēange ʻe ia, “ʻE ʻikai, ʻa hoku tuongaʻane, ʻoua naʻa ke fakamaaʻi au; he ʻoku ʻikai totonu ke fai ha meʻa pehē ʻi ʻIsileli: ʻoua naʻa ke fai ʻae vale ni.

Yeye akamjibu, “Hapana, kaka yangu, usinilazimishe, kwani hakuna jambo kama hili linapaswa kufanyika katika Israeli. Usifanye jambo la aibu kiasi hiki!

13 Pea ko au, te u tuku ke ʻalu ki fē ʻa hoku fakamā? Pea ko koe, te ke hangē koe ko ha taha ʻoe kau vale ʻi ʻIsileli. Ko ia foki, ʻoku ou kole kiate koe, ke ke lea ki he tuʻi; he koeʻuhi ʻe ʻikai te ne taʻofi au meiate koe.”

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.”

14 Ka neongo eni naʻe ʻikai fie tokanga ia ki heʻene lea: pea ko e meʻa ʻi heʻene mālohi lahi ʻiate ia, naʻa ne tohotohoʻi ia, pea mohe mo ia.

Lakini Amnoni hakuweza kumsikiliza. Kwa kuwa alikuwa zaidi akamkamata na akalala naye.

15 Pea hili ia naʻe fehiʻa ʻaupito kiate ia ʻa ʻAmanoni; ko ia naʻe lahi hake ai ʻae fehiʻa naʻa ne fehiʻa ʻaki kiate ia, ʻi he ʻofa ʻaia naʻa ne ʻofa ai kiate ia. Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ʻAmanoni kiate ia, “Tuʻu hake, pea ke ʻalu.”

Kisha Amnoni akamchukia Tamari kwa chuki kuu. Akamchukia zaidi ya jinsi alivyokuwa amemtamani. Amnoni akamwambia, “Inuka na uondoke.”

16 Pea naʻa ne pehē kiate ia, “ʻOku ʻikai hano ʻuhinga: ʻoku lahi hake ʻae kovi ni ʻo hoʻo fekauʻi au ke ʻalu, ʻi he meʻa ʻe taha kuo ke fai kiate au. Ka naʻe ʻikai ʻaupito fanongo ia kiate ia.”

Lakini yeye akamjibu, “Hapana! kwa maana uovu wa kunifanya ni uondoke ni mbaya zaidi ya kile ulichonitenda!” Lakini Amnoni hakumsikiliza.

17 Pea naʻa ne toki ui ki heʻene tamaioʻeiki ʻaia naʻe talifekau kiate ia, ʻo ne pehē, “Kapusi atu leva ʻa e [fefine ]ni meiate au, pea songo ʻae matapā kiate ia.”

Badala yake, akamwita mtumishi wake na akasema, “Mwondoe mwanamke huyu mbele yangu, na uufunge mlango nyuma yake.”

18 Pea naʻe fakakofuʻaki ia ʻae kofu pulepule: he ko e anga ia ʻoe kofu naʻe kofuʻaki ʻae ngaahi ʻofefine ʻoe tuʻi ʻaia naʻe tāupoʻou. Pea hili ia naʻe ʻomi ia kituʻa ʻe heʻene tamaioʻeiki, pea ne songo ʻae matapā kiate ia.

Hivyo mtumishi wake akamtoa na kufunga mlango. Tamari alikuwa amevaa vazi lilinakishiwa kwani ndivyo binti za wafalme waliobikra valivyokuwa wakivaa.

19 Pea naʻe pani ʻaki ʻe Tamaa ʻa hono ʻulu ʻae efuefu, pea naʻa ne haehae ʻa hono kofu pulepule ʻaia naʻa ne kofuʻaki, pea naʻa ne ʻai hono nima ki hono ʻulu, pea naʻa ne ʻalu pe mo tangi.

Tamari akaweka majivu juu ya kichwa chake na akalirarua vazi lake

20 Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ʻApisalomi ko hono tuongaʻane kiate ia, “Kuo ala [koā ]ʻa ʻAmanoni ko ho tuongaʻane kiate koe? Ka ko eni ʻa hoku tuofefine ke ke longo pe; he ko ho tuongaʻane ia; ʻoua naʻa ke tokanga ki he meʻa ni.” Ko ia naʻe nofo mamahi pe ʻa Tamaa ʻi he fale ʻo hono tuongaʻane ko ʻApisalomi.

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.

21 Ka ʻi heʻene fanongo ʻa Tevita ko e tuʻi ki he ngaahi meʻa ni, naʻe houhau ʻaupito ia.

Mfalme Daudi aliposikia haya yote, alikasirika sana.

22 Pea naʻe ʻikai ke moimoʻi lea ʻa ʻApisalomi ki hono tokoua ko ʻAmanoni ʻi he lelei pe ko e kovi: he naʻe fehiʻa ʻa ʻApisalomi kia ʻAmanoni, koeʻuhi ko ʻene tohotohoʻi ʻa hono tuofefine.

Absalome hakusema chochote kwa Amnoni, kwa maana Absalome alimchukia kwa kile alichokifanya, kumdhalilisha Tamari, dada yake.

23 Pea hili ʻae taʻu kātoa ʻe ua naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, naʻe maʻu ʻe ʻApisalomi ʻae kau tangata kosi sipi ʻi Peali-Hasoa, ʻaia ʻoku ofi ki ʻIfalemi; pea naʻe talaki ki ai ʻae ngaahi foha kotoa pē ʻoe tuʻi.

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.

24 Pea naʻe haʻu ʻa ʻApisalomi ki he tuʻi, ʻo ne pehē, “Vakai eni, kuo ʻi hoʻo tamaioʻeiki ʻae kau tangata kosi sipi; ʻoku ou kole kiate koe, ke meʻa ʻae tuʻi pea mo ʻene kau tamaioʻeiki ke ʻalu mo ho tamaioʻeiki.”

Absalomu akamwendea mfalme na kusema, “Tazama sasa, mtumishi wako anao wakatao kondoo manyoya. Tafadhari, naomba mfalme na watumishi wake waende nami, mtumishi wako.”

25 Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he tuʻi kia ʻApisalomi, “ʻE ʻikai, hoku foha, ʻoua naʻa tau ʻalu eni kotoa pē, telia naʻa mau fakamāfasia kiate koe.” Pea naʻa ne kole mālohi kiate ia; pea naʻe ʻikai te ne ʻalu mo ia, ka naʻa ne tāpuakiʻi ia.

Mfalme akamjibu Absalomu, “hapana mwanangu, tusiende sisi yote kwani tutakuwa mzigo kwako.” Absalomu akamhakikishia mfalme, lakini yeye asikubali kwenda, ila alimbariki Absalomu.

26 Pea naʻe toki pehē ai ʻe ʻApisalomi, “Ka kuo ʻikai, pea ʻoku ou kole kiate koe, tuku ke ʻalu ʻa ʻAmanoni mo kimautolu.” Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he tuʻi kiate ia, “Ko e hā ka ʻalu ai ia mo koe?”

Kisha Absalomu akasema, “kama sivyo, basi tafadhari mwache ndugu yangu Amnoni aende nasi.” Mfalme akamuliza, “Kwa nini Amnoni aende nanyi?”

27 Ka naʻe kole fakamātoato ʻe ʻApisalomi, ke ne tuku ʻa ʻAmanoni pea mo e ngaahi foha kotoa pē ʻoe tuʻi ke ʻalu mo ia.

Absalomu akamsihi Daudi, hivyo akamruhusu Amnoni na wana wengine wa mfalme kwenda naye.

28 Ka ko eni, kuo ʻosi hono tala ʻe ʻApisalomi ki heʻene kau tamaioʻeiki, ʻo pehē, “Mou vakai ʻoka fiefia ʻae loto ʻo ʻAmanoni ʻi he uaine, pea kau ka pehē ʻeau kiate kimoutolu, Tāʻi ʻa ʻAmanoni; mou toki tāmateʻi ia, ʻoua naʻa manavahē; ʻikai kuo u fekau ʻeau kiate kimoutolu? Mou lototoʻa pea fai mālohi.”

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.”

29 Pea naʻe fai ʻe he kau tamaioʻeiki ʻa ʻApisalomi kia ʻAmanoni ʻo hangē ko ia naʻe fekau ʻe ʻApisalomi. Pea naʻe tuʻu hake ai ʻae ngaahi foha ʻoe tuʻi, pea naʻe taki taha heka ʻae tangata ki heʻene miuli pea hola.

Hivyo watumishi wa Absalome wakamtendea Amnoni kama walivyoamriwa. Kisha wana wote wa mfalme wakainuka na kila mmoja akapanda nyumbu wake akakimbia.

30 Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, lolotonga ʻenau ʻi he hala, naʻe ʻomi ʻae ongoongo kia Tevita, ʻo pehē, “Kuo tāmateʻi ʻe ʻApisalomi ʻae ngaahi foha kotoa pē ʻoe tuʻi, pea ʻoku ʻikai toe ha tokotaha ʻokinautolu.”

Hata ikawa wakati wakiwa njiani habari zikafika kwa Daudi kusema, “Absalomu ameua wana wote wa mfalme na hakuna hata mmoja aliyesalia.”

31 Pea naʻe tuʻu hake ai ʻae tuʻi pea ne haehae ʻa hono ngaahi kofu, pea ne tō hifo ki he funga kelekele; pea naʻe tutuʻu ofi ai ʻa ʻene kau tamaioʻeiki kotoa pē pea kuo haehae ʻa honau ngaahi kofu.

Kisha mfalme akainuka na kurarua mavazi yake na kujilaza juu ya sakafu; watumishi wake wote wakasimama karibu naye mavazi yao yameraruriwa.

32 Pea ko Sonatapi ko e foha ʻo Simia ko e tokoua ʻo Tevita, naʻe tali ʻe ia ʻo ne pehē, “Ke ʻoua naʻa mahalo ʻe hoku ʻeiki kuo nau tāmateʻi ʻae kau talavou kotoa pē ko e ngaahi foha ʻoe tuʻi; he ko ʻAmanoni pe tokotaha kuo mate; he kuo fakapapau ʻae meʻa ni mei he ngutu ʻo ʻApisalomi talu mei he ʻaho naʻe tohotoho ai ʻa Tamaa ko hono tuofefine.

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.

33 Ko ia foki ke ʻoua naʻa mamahi fau ʻae loto ʻo hoku ʻeiki ko e tuʻi, ke ne mahalo kuo mate ʻae ngaahi foha kotoa pē ʻoe tuʻi: he ko ʻAmanoni pe tokotaha kuo mate.”

Kwa hiyo basi, bwana wangu mfalme asiiweke taarifa hii moyoni, kudhani kwamba wana wote wa mfalme wameuawa, kwani aliyeuawa ni Amnoni peke yake.”

34 Ka naʻe hola ʻa ʻApisalomi. Pea naʻe hanga hake ʻe he tangata talavou ʻaia naʻe nofo ke leʻo, pea ne sio, pea vakai, naʻe haʻu ʻae kakai tokolahi ʻi he hala ʻi he tafaʻaki moʻunga ki mui ʻiate ia.

Absalomu akakimbia. Mtumishi aliyekuwa akiangalia akainua macho yake na kuona watu wengi wakija njiani kando ya kilima upande wake wa magharibi.

35 Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Sonatapi ki he tuʻi, “Vakai, ʻoku haʻu ʻae ngaahi foha ʻoe tuʻi: ʻo hangē ko ia naʻe lea ʻaki ʻe hoʻo tamaioʻeiki.”

Kisha Yehonadabu akamwambia mfalme, “Tazama, wana wa mfalme wanakuja. kama mtumishi wako alivyosema.”

36 Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻi heʻene fakaʻosi leva ʻe ia ʻa ʻene lea, vakai, naʻe hoko mai ʻae ngaahi foha ʻoe tuʻi pea naʻa nau hiki hake honau leʻo ʻo tangi: pea naʻe tangi lahi ʻaupito foki ʻae tuʻi pea mo ʻene kau tamaioʻeiki kotoa pē.

Ikawa mara alipomaliza kusema wana wa mfalme wakafika, wakainua sauti zao na kulia. Na mfalme pamoja na watumishi wake wote pia wakalia kwa uchungu.

37 Ka naʻe hola ʻa ʻApisalomi, ʻo ne ʻalu kia Talimei, ko e foha ʻo ʻAmihuti ko e tuʻi ʻo Kesuli. Pea naʻe loto mamahi [ʻa Tevita ]ʻi he ʻaho kotoa pē koeʻuhi ko hono foha.

Lakini Absalomu akakimbia na kwenda kwa Talmai mwana wa Amihudi, mfalme wa Geshuri. Mfalme akaomboleza kila siku kwa ajili ya mwanaye.

38 Ko ia, naʻe hola ʻa ʻApisalomi, ʻo ne ʻalu ki Kesuli, pea naʻa ne ʻi ai ʻi he taʻu ʻe tolu.

Hivyo Absalomu akakimbia na kwenda Geshuri na akakaa huko kwa miaka mitatu.

39 Pea naʻe holi tuʻu pe ʻa Tevita ke ne ʻalu atu kia ʻApisalomi: he kuo fakafiemālieʻi ia ʻia ʻAmanoni, koeʻuhi ko ʻene pekia.

Moyo wa mfalme Daudi ukatamani kwenda kumwona Absalomu, kwa maana alikuwa amefarijika kwa habari ya kifo cha Amnoni.
