2 Samuela 15
1 Pea hili eni naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, naʻe teuteu ʻe ʻApisalomi ʻae ngaahi saliote maʻana mo e fanga hoosi, pea mo e kau tangata ʻe toko nimangofulu ke lele muʻomuʻa ʻiate ia.
Kwasekusithi emva kwalokhu uAbisalomu wazilungisela izinqola lamabhiza, labantu abangamatshumi amahlanu begijima phambi kwakhe.
2 Pea naʻe faʻa tuʻu hake hengihengi ʻa ʻApisalomi, ʻo ne tuʻu ʻi he hūʻanga ʻoe matapā ʻoe kolo: pea ka ai ha tokotaha kuo ai haʻane meʻa ke fakamaauʻi, pea haʻu ia ki he tuʻi ke fai hono fakamaauʻi, pehē, ne ui mai ia ʻe ʻApisalomi kiate ia, mo ne pehē, “Ko e kolo fē ia ʻoku ke haʻu mei ai?” Pea naʻa ne pehē, “Ko hoʻo tamaioʻeiki ko e tokotaha mei he ngaahi faʻahinga ʻo ʻIsileli.”
UAbisalomu wayesevuka ekuseni kakhulu eme eceleni kwendlela yesango; kwakusithi wonke umuntu olecala lomthetho eliya enkosini ukwahlulelwa, uAbisalomu ambize athi: Ungowawuphi umuzi? Lapho esithi: Inceku yakho ingowesinye sezizwe zakoIsrayeli;
3 Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ʻApisalomi kiate ia, “Vakai, kuo lelei mo totonu ʻa hoʻo ngaahi meʻa; ka ʻoku ʻikai ha taha mei he tuʻi ke fanongo kiate koe.”
uAbisalomu abesesithi kuye: Bona, indaba zakho zinhle zilungile, kodwa kakho owenkosi ukuthi akuzwe.
4 Naʻe pehē foki ʻe ʻApisalomi, “Taumaiā kuo fakanofo au ke fakamaau ʻi he fonua, koeʻuhi ke haʻu kiate au ʻae tangata kotoa pē ʻoku ai haʻane meʻa ke ʻekeʻi pe fakamaauʻi, pea te u fai angatonu ʻeau kiate ia!”
UAbisalomu abesesithi: Kungathi ngabe ngibekwe umahluleli elizweni, ukuthi wonke umuntu olecala lomthetho lodaba angeza kimi, njalo bengizamlungisela.
5 Pea naʻe pehē, ʻi heʻene haʻu ʻo ofi ha tokotaha kiate ia ke fai ʻene fakaʻapaʻapa kiate ia, naʻa ne faʻa mafao atu hono nima, ke faʻofua ki ai mo ʻuma kiate ia.
Kwakusithi lapho kusondela umuntu ukumkhothamela, elule isandla sakhe, ambambe, amange.
6 Pea naʻe fai pehē ʻe ʻApisalomi ki he kakai ʻIsileli kotoa pē ʻaia naʻe haʻu ki he tuʻi ke fakamaauʻi: pea naʻe pehē pe ʻae kaihaʻasi ʻe ʻApisalomi ʻae loto ʻoe kau tangata ʻo ʻIsileli.
UAbisalomu wasesenza ngalindlela kuIsrayeli wonke, bona abeza enkosini ukwahlulelwa; ngalokho uAbisalomu wathumba inhliziyo yamadoda akoIsrayeli.
7 Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē ʻi heʻene hili mai ʻae taʻu ʻe fāngofulu, naʻe lea ʻa ʻApisalomi ki he tuʻi, [ʻo pehē], “ʻOku ou kole ke ke tuku au ke u ʻalu ʻo fai ʻa ʻeku fuakava, ʻaia kuo u fuakava kia Sihova, ʻi Hepeloni.
Kwasekusithi ekupheleni kweminyaka engamatshumi amane uAbisalomu wathi enkosini: Ake ngiyekhokha isithembiso sami engasithembisa eNkosini eHebroni.
8 He naʻe fai ʻe hoʻo tamaioʻeiki ha fuakava lolotonga ʻa ʻeku nofo ʻi Kesuli ʻi Silia, ʻo pehē, ‘Kapau ʻe toe ʻomi moʻoni au ki Selūsalema, te u toki tauhi ai kia Sihova.’”
Ngoba inceku yakho yathembisa isithembiso ngisahlala eGeshuri eSiriya ngisithi: Uba iNkosi ingibuyisela lokungibuyisela eJerusalema, ngizayikhonza iNkosi.
9 Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he tuʻi kiate ia, “Ke ke ʻalu ʻi he fiemālie.” Pea naʻa ne tuʻu hake ai, mo ne ʻalu ki Hepeloni.
Inkosi yasisithi kuye: Hamba ngokuthula. Wasesukuma waya eHebroni.
10 Ka naʻe fekau atu ʻe ʻApisalomi ʻae kau mataki ki he faʻahinga kotoa pē ʻo ʻIsileli, ʻo ne pehē, “Ka mou ka fanongo leva ki he leʻo ʻoe meʻalea, te mou toki pehē, ‘Kuo pule ʻa ʻApisalomi ʻi Hepeloni.’”
Kodwa uAbisalomu wathuma izinhloli ezizweni zonke zakoIsrayeli esithi: Lapho lisizwa ukukhala kophondo, lizakuthi: UAbisalomu uyinkosi eHebroni!
11 Pea naʻe ʻalu fakataha mo ʻApisalomi mei Selūsalema ʻae kau tangata ʻe toko uangeau naʻe fili; pea naʻa nau ʻalu fakafaai noa ʻakinautolu, pea naʻe ʻikai tenau ʻilo ha meʻa.
Kwasekuhamba loAbisalomu amadoda angamakhulu amabili esuka eJerusalema, anxusiweyo, ahamba ebuqothweni bawo, njalo engazi lutho.
12 Pea naʻe fekau ʻe ʻApisalomi kia ʻAhitofeli ko e tangata Kilo, ko e taha ʻi he kau mātuʻa ʻo Tevita, ke haʻu mei hono kolo ko Kilo, lolotonga ʻa ʻene fai ʻae ngaahi feilaulau. Pea naʻe tuʻu kaukaua ʻae fakaaoao; he naʻe tupu ke tokolahi maʻuaipē ʻae kakai naʻe kau mo ʻApisalomi.
UAbisalomu wasethumela wabiza uAhithofeli weGilo, umeluleki kaDavida, esuka emzini wakhe, eGilo, esahlaba imihlatshelo. Njalo ugobe lwaqina, labantu bahamba banda kuAbisalomu.
13 Pea naʻe haʻu ʻae talafekau kia Tevita, ʻo ne pehē, “Kuo muimui ʻae loto ʻoe kau tangata ʻo ʻIsileli kia ʻApisalomi.”
Kwasekufika isithunywa kuDavida, sisithi: Inhliziyo yabantu bakoIsrayeli ilandela uAbisalomu.
14 Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Tevita ki heʻene kau tamaioʻeiki kotoa pē naʻe ʻiate ia ʻi Selūsalema, “Tuʻu hake, pea ke tau hola; he ka ʻikai pea ʻe ʻikai te tau hao meia ʻApisalomi: fakatoʻotoʻo ke tau ʻalu, telia naʻa ne hoko fakafokifā mai, pea ne ʻomi ʻae kovi kiate kitautolu, pea ne teʻia ʻae kolo ʻaki ʻae mata ʻoe heletā.”
Wasesithi uDavida ezincekwini zakhe zonke ezazilaye eJerusalema: Sukumani, sibaleke, ngoba kasilakuphepha ebusweni bukaAbisalomu. Phangisani ukuhamba, hlezi aphangise asifice, asehlisele okubi, atshaye umuzi ngobukhali benkemba.
15 Pea naʻe pehē ki he tuʻi ʻe he kau tamaioʻeiki ʻoe tuʻi, “Vakai, ko hoʻo tamaioʻeiki kimautolu ʻi he meʻa kotoa pē ʻaia te ke fekau mai.”
Izinceku zenkosi zasezisithi enkosini: Njengakho konke inkosi, inkosi yami, ekukhethayo, khangela, nanzi inceku zakho.
16 Pea naʻe ʻalu atu ʻae tuʻi, pea naʻe muimui kiate ia ʻa ʻene kaunga nofoʻanga kotoa pē. Pea naʻe tuku ʻe he tuʻi ʻae kau fefine ʻe toko hongofulu, ko e sinifu, ke nau tauhi ʻae fale.
Yasiphuma inkosi, layo yonke indlu yayo iyilandela. Inkosi yasitshiya abafazi abalitshumi, abafazi abancane, ukuze balinde indlu.
17 Pea naʻe ʻalu atu ʻae tuʻi, pea muimui ʻiate ia ʻae kakai kotoa pē, ki ha potu ʻaia naʻe mamaʻo atu, ʻo nofo ʻi ai.
Yasiphuma inkosi, labo bonke abantu beyilandela; bema endlini ekhatshana.
18 Pea naʻe ʻalu atu mo ia ʻa ʻene kau tamaioʻeiki; pea naʻe ʻalu ʻo muʻomuʻa ʻi he tuʻi ʻae kakai Keliti, mo e kakai Peleti, pea mo e kakai Kati, ko e kau tangata ʻe toko onongeau ʻaia naʻe muimui kiate ia mei Kati.
Lazo zonke inceku zayo zedlula eceleni kwayo, njalo wonke amaKerethi lawo wonke amaPelethi lawo wonke amaGiti, amadoda angamakhulu ayisithupha, eza amlandela evela eGati, edlula phambi kwenkosi.
19 Pea naʻe pehē ai ʻe he tuʻi kia Itei ko e tangata Kati, “Ko e hā ʻoku ke haʻu ai koe mo kimautolu? Toe foki ki hoʻo potu, pea nofo mo e tuʻi: he ko e muli koe, pea ko e ʻāunofo pe foki.
Inkosi yasisithi kuIthayi umGiti: Lawe uhambelani lathi? Buyela uhlale lenkosi, ngoba ungowezizweni njalo ungumxotshwa endaweni yakho.
20 Hangē pe naʻa ke haʻu ʻaneafi, pea ʻe lelei koā ʻa ʻeku ʻave koe he ʻaho ni ke hē fano pe mo kimautolu? Koeʻuhi te u ʻalu au ko ʻeku fai faʻiteliha pe, ka ke tafoki koe, pea toe ʻave ho kāinga, pea ke ʻiate koe ʻae ʻaloʻofa mo e moʻoni.”
Ufike izolo; pho, lamuhla ngikuzulazulise ngokuhamba lathi, njengoba ngiya lapho engiya khona? Buyela ubuyisele abafowenu. Umusa leqiniso kakube lawe.
21 Pea naʻe pehēange ʻe Itei ki he tuʻi, “ʻOku moʻui ʻa Sihova, pea hangē ʻoku moʻui ʻa hoku ʻeiki ko e tuʻi, ʻi he potu moʻoni ko ia ʻe ʻi ai ʻa hoku ʻeiki ko e tuʻi, ʻi he mate pe ʻi he moʻui, ʻi he potu pe ko ia ʻe ʻi ai ʻa hoʻo tamaioʻeiki.”
Kodwa uIthayi wayiphendula inkosi wathi: Kuphila kukaJehova, njalo kuphila kwenkosi yami, inkosi, isibili kuleyondawo lapho inkosi yami, inkosi, ezakuba kiyo, loba kusekufeni loba kusekuphileni, lalapho izakuba khona inceku yakho.
22 Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Tevita kia Itei, “ʻAlu pea ke mole atu.” Pea naʻe aʻa atu ʻa Itei ko e tangata Kati, pea mo ʻene kakai kotoa pē, pea mo ʻene fānau iiki kotoa pē naʻe ʻalu mo ia.
UDavida wasesithi kuIthayi: Hamba, uchaphe. UIthayi umGiti wasechapha kanye labantu bakhe bonke labantwanyana ababelaye.
23 Pea naʻe tangi ʻae fonua kotoa pē ʻaki ʻae leʻo lahi, pea naʻe aʻa atu ʻae kakai kotoa pē: naʻe aʻa atu foki ʻae tuʻi ʻi he vaitafe ko Kitiloni, pea naʻe ʻalu atu ʻae kakai kotoa pē, ʻo hanga ki he hala ki he toafa.
Ilizwe lonke lakhala inyembezi ngelizwi elikhulu, njalo abantu bonke bachapha. Inkosi yasichapha isifula iKidroni, labantu bonke bachapha, ngasendleleni yenkangala.
24 Pea vakai, ko Satoki foki, pea mo e kau Livai kotoa pē naʻe ʻiate ia, naʻa nau fua ʻae puha ʻoe fuakava ʻae ʻOtua: pea naʻa nau tuku hifo ʻae puha tapu ʻae ʻOtua; pea naʻe ʻalu hake ʻa ʻApiata kaeʻoua ke ʻosi ʻae ʻalu atu ʻae kakai kotoa pē mei he kolo.
Njalo khangela, uZadoki laye lawo wonke amaLevi elaye, bethwele umtshokotsho wesivumelwano sikaNkulunkulu, bawubeka phansi umtshokotsho kaNkulunkulu; uAbhiyatha wasesenyuka, abantu bonke baze baphela ukudlula bephuma emzini.
25 Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he tuʻi kia Satoki, “Toe ʻave ʻae puha tapu ʻae ʻOtua ki he kolo: kapau ʻe ʻofeina au ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova, te ne toe ʻomi au, ʻo ne fakahā ia kiate au pea mo hono fale nofoʻanga:
Inkosi yasisithi kuZadoki: Buyisela umtshokotsho kaNkulunkulu emzini. Uba ngizathola umusa emehlweni eNkosi, izangibuyisa ingitshengise wona kanye lendawo yayo yokuhlala.
26 Pea kapau te ne pehē mai, ‘ʻOku ʻikai te u ʻilo ha fiemālie ʻiate koe; vakai, ko au eni, tuku ke ne fai kiate au ʻo hangē ko ia ʻoku lelei kiate ia.’”
Kodwa uba isitsho njalo, ithi: Kangithokozi ngawe; khangela ngilapha, kayenze kimi njengokuhle emehlweni ayo.
27 Naʻe pehē foki ʻe he tuʻi kia Satoki ko e taulaʻeiki, “ʻIkai ko e tangata kikite koe? Foki atu ki he kolo ʻi he fiemālie, ʻa koe mo ho ongo foha ʻe toko ua, ʻa ʻAhimasi ko ho foha ʻoʻou, pea mo Sonatane ko e foha ʻo ʻApiata.
Inkosi yasisithi kuZadoki umpristi: Ungumboni yini? Buyela emzini ngokuthula, loAhimahazi indodana yakho loJonathani indodana kaAbhiyatha, amadodana enu womabili elani.
28 Vakai, te u nofo tatali pe au ʻi he potu tafangafanga ʻoe toafa, kaeʻoua ke ʻomi ha lea meiate kimoutolu ke fakamatala kiate au.”
Bona, ngizalinda emazibukweni enkangala, kuze kufike ilizwi elivela kini lokungibikela.
29 Ko ia naʻe toe ʻave ai ʻae puha tapu ʻae ʻOtua ki Selūsalema ʻe Satoki pea mo ʻApiata, pea naʻa na tatali ʻo nofo ʻi ai.
Ngakho uZadoki loAbhiyatha bawubuyisela umtshokotsho kaNkulunkulu eJerusalema, bahlala khona.
30 Pea naʻe fofonga hake ʻe Tevita ʻi he hakeʻanga ʻo ʻOlive, pea naʻa ne tangi pe mo ʻalu hake, pea naʻe pūlou ʻa hono ʻulu pea naʻa ne ʻalu kuo telefua pe ʻa hono vaʻe: pea ko e kakai fulipē naʻe ʻiate ia, naʻe pūlou taki taha ʻe he tangata ʻa hono ʻulu, pea naʻa nau ʻalu hake, pea naʻa nau ʻalu hake pe mo e fai ʻae tangi.
UDavida wasesenyuka ngomqanso wemihlwathi, esenyuka ekhala inyembezi, embomboze ikhanda lakhe, wahamba engelamanyathela; labo bonke abantu ababelaye bambomboza, ngulowo lalowo ikhanda lakhe, benyuka, besenyuka bekhala inyembezi.
31 Pea naʻe tala ʻe he tokotaha kia Tevita, ʻo pehē, Kuo kau ʻa ʻAhitofeli ki he kau fakaaoao ʻoku ʻia ʻApisalomi. Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Tevita, “ʻE Sihova, ʻoku ou kole kiate koe, ke ke liliu ke vale ʻae fakakaukau ʻa ʻAhitofeli.”
Kwasekubikwa kuDavida kwathiwa: UAhithofeli uphakathi kwabakugobe loAbisalomu. UDavida wasesithi: Nkosi, ake enze icebo likaAhithofeli libe yibuthutha.
32 Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻi heʻene hoko hake ʻa Tevita ki he tumutumu [ʻoe moʻunga], ʻaia naʻa ne lotu ai ki he ʻOtua, vakai, naʻe fakafetaulaki mai kiate ia ʻa Husai ko e tangata ʻAliki, kuo mahaehae hono kofutuʻa, pea [pani ʻaki ]ʻae kelekele ʻa hono ʻulu:
Kwasekusithi uDavida esefike engqongeni lapho ayekhonza khona uNkulunkulu, khangela, uHushayi umArki wamhlangabeza, isembatho sakhe sidatshuliwe, lenhlabathi isekhanda lakhe.
33 ʻAia naʻe pehē ki ai ʻe Tevita, “Kapau te ta ō mo au, te ke hoko ko e fakamāfasia kiate au:
UDavida wasesithi kuye: Uba usedlula lami, uzakuba ngumthwalo kimi.
34 Ka ka ke ka toe ʻalu ki he kolo, pea ke pehē kia ʻApisalomi, ʻE Tuʻi, te u hoko au ko hoʻo tamaioʻeiki; naʻaku tauhi ki hoʻo tamai ʻo aʻu mai ki he kuonga ni, pea ko eni te u tauhi kiate koe: pea ko e meʻa ia te ke faʻa veuveuki ai ʻae fakakaukau ʻa ʻAhitofeli.
Kodwa uba ubuyela emzini uthi kuAbisalomu: Ngizakuba yinceku yakho, nkosi; kade ngiyinceku kayihlo, kodwa khathesi sengizakuba yinceku yakho; khona uzangichithela icebo likaAhithofeli.
35 Pea ʻikai ʻe ʻi ai mo koe ʻa Satoki pea mo ʻApiata ko e [ongo ]taulaʻeiki? Pea ko ia ʻe pehē pe, ko ia kotoa pē te ke fanongo ki ai mei he fale ʻoe tuʻi, te ke fakahā ia kia Satoki pea mo ʻApiata ko e [ongo ]taulaʻeiki.
Njalo kabakho yini kanye lawe lapho oZadoki loAbhiyatha abapristi? Ngakho kuzakuthi yonke indaba oyizwayo endlini yenkosi, uyitshele oZadoki loAbhiyatha abapristi.
36 Pea vakai, ʻoku ʻiate kinaua hona ongo foha ʻe toko ua, ʻa ʻAhimasi ko e foha ʻo Satoki, pea mo Sonatane ko e foha ʻo ʻApiata; pea te ke ʻomi ʻiate kinaua ʻae tala ʻoe meʻa kotoa pē ʻaia te ke faʻa fanongo ki ai.”
Khangela, kukhona lapho kanye labo amadodana abo amabili, uAhimahazi okaZadoki, loJonathani okaAbhiyatha; njalo uzathumela ngesandla sabo kimi yonke into ozayizwa.
37 Ko ia naʻe ʻalu ai ki he kolo ʻa Husai ko e kāinga ʻo Tevita, pea naʻe hoko mai ʻa ʻApisalomi ki Selūsalema.
UHushayi umngane kaDavida wasefika emzini, loAbisalomu wafika eJerusalema.
