2 Samuela 18
1 Pea naʻe lau hake ʻe Tevita ʻae kakai naʻe ʻiate ia, mo ne fakanofo ʻae ngaahi ʻeiki ke pule ki he ngaahi toko afe, ngaahi ʻeiki ke pule ki he ngaahi toko teau.
Awo Dawudi n’akuŋŋaanya abasajja be yalina, n’abalondamu abaduumizi b’enkumi n’abaduumizi b’ebikumi.
2 Pea naʻe fekau atu ʻe Tevita ʻa hono vahe tolu ʻoe kakai ke puleʻi ʻe Soape, mo hono vahe ʻe taha ke puleʻi ʻe ʻApisai ko e tama ʻo Seluia, ko e tokoua ʻo Soape, pea mo e vahe ʻe taha ke puleʻi ʻe Itei ko e tangata Kati. Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he tuʻi ki he kakai, “Ko au foki te u ʻalu atu moʻoni fakataha mo kimoutolu.”
Dawudi n’abalagira bagende, ekimu kya kusatu nga kiduumirwa Yowaabu, ekimu kya kusatu ekirala nga kiduumirwa muganda wa Yowaabu, Abisaayi batabani wa Zeruyiya, n’ekimu kya kusatu ekirala nga kiduumirwa Ittayi Omugitti. Kabaka n’agamba abasajja nti, “Nange n’agenda nammwe.”
3 Ka naʻe pehēange ʻe he kakai, “ʻE ʻikai te ke ʻalu atu: he kapau te mau hola, ʻe ʻikai tenau tokanga kiate kimautolu; pea kapau ʻe mate haʻamau vaheua mālie, ʻe ʻikai tenau tokanga kiate kimautolu: ka ko koe ʻoku ke mahuʻinga ʻi ha toko mano ʻokimautolu: ko ia foki ʻoku lelei hake ke ke tokoni mai koe kiate kimautolu mei he loto kolo.”
Naye abasajja ne boogera nti, “Toteekwa kugenda naffe, kubanga ffe bwe tunadduka tebaatufeeko. Ekitundu ku ffe ne bwe tunaafa tebaafeeyo. Ggwe olimu abantu omutwalo gumu ku ffe ffenna. Ekisinga obulungi weeteeketeeke okutudduukirira ng’osinziira mu kibuga.”
4 Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he tuʻi kiate kinautolu, “Ko e meʻa ʻoku lelei hake kiate kimoutolu te u fai pe ia.” Pea naʻe tuʻu ʻae tuʻi ki he veʻe matapā [ʻoe kolo], pea naʻe ʻalu atu ʻae kakai ʻi he ngaahi toko teau mo e ngaahi toko afe.
Kabaka n’addamu nti, “Kye musiimye kye nnaakola.” Awo kabaka n’ayimirira ku mabbali ga wankaaki, ng’eggye lyonna likumba okufuluma mu bibinja eby’ekikumi n’eby’olukumi.
5 Pea naʻe fekau ʻe he tuʻi kia Soape mo ʻApisai mo Itei, ʻo pehē, “Faifai mālie koeʻuhi ko au ki he talavou ko ʻApisalomi.” Pea naʻe ongoʻi ʻe he kakai kotoa pē ʻa ʻene tuku ʻe he tuʻi ʻae fekau naʻe kau kia ʻApisalomi.
Kabaka n’alagira Yowaabu, ne Abisaayi ne Ittayi ng’ayogera nti, “Omuvubuka Abusaalomu mumukwate n’ekisa ku lwange.” Abantu bonna ne bawulira kabaka ng’awa abaduumizi bonna ebiragiro ebikwata ku Abusaalomu.
6 Pea pehē, naʻe ʻalu atu ʻae kakai kituaʻā ke tauʻi ʻa ʻIsileli: pea naʻe hoko ʻae tau ʻi he vao ʻakau ʻi ʻIfalemi;
Awo eggye ne lifuluma ku ttale okulwana ne Isirayiri, olutalo ne luba mu kibira kya Efulayimu.
7 ʻAia naʻe tāmateʻi ʻi ai ʻae kakai ʻo ʻIsileli ʻi he ʻao ʻoe kau tamaioʻeiki ʻa Tevita, pea naʻe fai ʻi ai ʻae tāmateʻi lahi ʻi he ʻaho ko ia, ko e kau tangata ʻe toko ua mano.
Abasajja ba Isirayiri ne bakubibwa abasajja ba Dawudi, era bangi ne battibwa ku lunaku olwo. Baawera ng’emitwalo ebiri.
8 He naʻe fai ʻae tau ʻo foliaki ʻi he funga fonua kotoa pē: pea naʻe maumauʻi ʻo tokolahi hake ʻae kakai ʻi he vao ʻakau ʻi he ʻaho ko ia, kae siʻi ʻae maumau ʻe he heletā.
Olutalo ne lubuna ensi yonna, abantu bangi ne bafiira mu kibira okusinga n’abattibwa n’ekitala.
9 Pea naʻe fetaulaki ʻa ʻApisalomi mo e kau tamaioʻeiki ʻa Tevita. Pea naʻe heka ʻa ʻApisalomi ki ha miuli, pea naʻe ʻalu ʻae miuli ʻi he lalo vaʻa mālohi ʻoe oke lahi, pea naʻe ʻefihiaʻi hono ʻulu ʻi he oke, pea naʻe tautau hake ia ʻi he vahaʻa ʻoe langi mo e [funga ]kelekele; pea naʻe moleange ʻae miuli mei lalo ʻiate ia.
Awo Abusaalomu n’asisinkana n’abasajja ba Dawudi. Yali yeebagadde ennyumbu ye. Ennyumbu n’eyita wansi w’amatabi amangi ag’omwera omunene, omutwe gwa Abusaalomu ne gulaaliramu, n’asigala ng’alengejja mu bbanga, ennyumbu gye yali yeebagadde n’egenda mu maaso.
10 Pea naʻe sio ki ai ʻae tangata ʻe tokotaha, ʻo ne tala ia kia Soape, ʻo pehē, “Vakai, naʻaku mamata kia ʻApisalomi kuo tautau ʻi ha oke.”
Omu ku basajja bwe yakiraba n’ategeeza Yowaabu nti, “Laba nnalengedde Abusaalomu ng’awanikiddwa ku mwera.”
11 Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Soape ki he tangata naʻe fakahā mai ia kiate ia, “Pea vakai, naʻa ke sio [ki ai], pea ko e hā naʻe ʻikai ai te ke taaʻi hifo ia ʻi ai ki he kelekele? Ka ne ke pehē, kuo u tuku kiate koe ha [sikeli ]siliva ʻe hongofulu pea mo ha noʻovala.”
Yowaabu n’agamba omusajja eyajja okumubuulira nti, “Kiki, wamulabye? Kiki ekyakulobedde okumuttirawo? N’andikusasudde gulaamu kikumi mu kkumi na ttaano eza ffeeza ne nkuwa n’olukoba olw’obuzira.”
12 Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he tangata kia Soape, “Ka ne u maʻu ha [sikeli ]siliva ʻe afe ki hoku nima, neongo ia ʻe ʻikai te u ala atu hoku nima ki he ʻalo ʻoe tuʻi: he naʻa mau fanongo ki he fekauʻi ʻa koe mo ʻApisai, mo Itei, ʻe he tuʻi, ʻo pehē, ‘Mou vakai kotoa pē telia naʻa alasi ʻae talavou ko ʻApisalomi.’
Naye omusajja n’amuddamu nti, “Ne bwe wandinsasudde kilo kkumi n’emu eza ffeeza, sandigololedde mukono gwange ku mwana wa kabaka. Ffenna twawulidde kabaka ng’abalagira ggwe, Abisaayi ne Ittayi nti, ‘Waleme okubaawo omuntu yenna anaakola Abusaalomu akabi ku lwange.’
13 Ka ne u fai pehē, pehē kuo u fai ʻae lohiakiʻi ki heʻeku moʻui ʻaʻaku: he ʻoku ʻikai fufū ha meʻa mei he tuʻi, pea naʻa mo koe te ke ʻita kiate au.”
Kale singa mmusse ne ngwa mu mitawaana, tewandimpolerezza, kubanga omanyi nga tewali kigambo ekikwekebwa kabaka.”
14 Pea naʻe toki pehē ʻe Soape, “ʻE ʻikai ʻaonga ʻa ʻeku tatali mo koe.” Pea naʻa ne toʻo ʻi hono nima ʻae foʻi tao ʻe tolu, ʻo ne velo ʻaki ia ke ʻasi ʻi he mafu ʻo ʻApisalomi lolotonga ʻa ʻene kei moʻui ʻi he lotolotonga ʻoe [ʻakau ko e ]oke.
Yowaabu n’ayogera nti, “Sirina bbanga lya kukwonoonerako.” N’addira obusaale busatu n’abulasa mu kifuba kya Abusaalomu ng’akyali mulamu mu mwera.
15 Pea naʻe kāpui mo taaʻi ʻa ʻApisalomi ʻe he kau talavou ʻe toko hongofulu naʻe fua ʻae mahafutau ʻa Soape, ʻonau tāmateʻi ia.
N’abavubuka kkumi abaasitulanga ebyokulwanyisa bya Yowaabu ne beetooloola Abusaalomu ne bamukuba ne bamutta.
16 Pea naʻe ifi ʻe Soape ʻae meʻalea, pea naʻe foki mai ʻae kakai mei heʻenau tuli ki ʻIsileli: he naʻe taʻofi ʻae kakai ʻe Soape.
Awo Yowaabu n’afuuwa ekkondeere, eggye ne lireka okugoberera Isirayiri kubanga Yowaabu yabayimiriza.
17 Pea naʻa nau ʻave ʻa ʻApisalomi ʻo lī ia ki ha fuʻu luo lahi naʻe ʻi he vao ʻakau, pea naʻe fokotuʻu ki ʻolunga ʻiate ia ha fuʻu ʻesi maka lahi; pea naʻe feholaki ʻa ʻIsileli kātoa taki taha ki hono fale fehikitaki.
Ne batwala Abusaalomu, ne bamusuula mu lunnya oluwanvu mu kibira, ne bamutuumako amayinja. Isirayiri yenna ne badduka nga buli muntu adda ewuwe.
18 Ka ko eni, lolotonga ʻa ʻene kei moʻui naʻe ngaohi mo fokotuʻu ʻe ʻApisalomi maʻana ha fuʻu pou, ʻaia ʻoku ʻi he teleʻa ʻoe tuʻi: he naʻa ne pehē, ʻOku ʻikai haku foha ke manatuʻi ai ʻa hoku hingoa: pea naʻa ne ui ʻae pou ki hono hingoa ʻoʻona: pea ʻoku ui ia ʻo aʻu ki he ʻaho ni, Ko e potu ʻo ʻApisalomi.
Mu bulamu bwe, Abusaalomu yaddira empagi n’agiteeka mu kiwonvu kya kabaka ng’ekijjukizo kye; n’ayogera nti, “Sirina mwana wabulenzi kwe balijjuukirira erinnya lyange.” Empagi n’agituuma erinnya lye, era eyitibwa kijjukizo kya Abusaalomu ne leero.
19 Pea naʻe toki pehē ʻe ʻAhimasi ko e foha ʻo Satoki, “Tuku eni ke u lele, pea ʻave ʻae ongoongo ki he tuʻi, ʻoe totongi kuo fai ʻe Sihova ki hono ngaahi fili.”
Akimaazi mutabani wa Zadooki n’ayogera nti, “Ka nziruke, ntwalire kabaka amawulire nga Mukama bw’amulokodde mu mukono gw’omulabe we.”
20 Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Soape kiate ia, “ʻE ʻikai te ke ʻave ha ongoongo he ʻaho ni, ka te ke ʻave ʻae ongoongo ʻi ha ʻaho ange: ka ko e ʻaho ni ʻe ʻikai te ke ʻave ha ongoongo, he kuo pekia ʻae ʻalo ʻoe tuʻi.”
Naye Yowaabu n’amugamba nti, “Si ggwe onootwala amawulire leero. Oligatwala olunaku olulala olutali lwa leero, kubanga mutabani wa kabaka afudde.”
21 Pea naʻe toki pehē ʻe Soape kia Kusi, “ʻAlu ʻo tala ki he tuʻi ʻaia kuo ke mamata ki ai.” Pea naʻe punou hifo ʻa Kusi kia Soape, ʻo ne lele.
Awo Yowaabu n’agamba omusajja Omukusi nti, “Genda otegeeze kabaka by’olabye.” Omukusi n’avuunama mu maaso ga Yowaabu n’adduka.
22 Pea naʻe toe pehē ai ʻe ʻAhimasi ko e foha ʻo Satoki kia Soape, “ʻOku ou kole kiate koe, ha meʻa pe ʻe fai, kae tuku pe au ke u lele muimui ʻia Kusi.” Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Soape, “Ko e hā ka ke ka lele ai koe, hoku foha, ka ʻoku ʻikai ʻiate koe ha ongoongo ʻoku lelei?”
Akimaazi mutabani wa Zadooki n’agamba Yowaabu nate nti, “Nkwegayiridde, nzikiriza mmale gagoberera Omukusi.” Yowaabu n’amuddamu nti, “Mutabani wange, kiki ekinaaba kikutwala ate nga tolina mawulire g’onootwala aganakuweesa ekirabo?”
23 [Pea naʻa ne pehē], “Neongo ia tuku ke u lele.” Pea naʻa ne pehē kiate ia, “Lele.” Pea naʻe toki lele ai ʻa ʻAhimasi ʻi he hala ʻoe toafa, pea naʻa ne liʻaki ʻa Kusi.
N’ayogera nti, “Ka mmale gagenda.” Awo Yowaabu n’amugamba nti, “Dduka.” Akimaazi n’addukira mu kkubo ery’olusenyi lwa Yoludaani n’ayisa Omukusi.
24 Pea naʻe nofo ʻa Tevita ʻi he vahaʻa ʻoe ongo matapā ʻoe kolo: pea naʻe ʻalu hake ʻae tangata leʻo ki he tuʻafale ʻi he ʻā ʻo feʻunga hake mo e matapā, pea naʻa ne hanga hake hono mata, ʻo ne sio, pea vakai naʻe lele mai ʻae tangata naʻe tokotaha pe.
Awo Dawudi yali atudde wakati w’emiryango ebiri ogw’omunda n’ogw’ebweru, omukuumi n’alinnya waggulu ku wankaaki ku bbugwe. Bwe yayimusa amaaso ge n’alengera omusajja ng’ajja adduka yekka.
25 Pea naʻe kalanga ʻe he tangata leʻo, ʻo ne fakahā [ia ]ki he tuʻi. Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he tuʻi, “Kapau ʻoku ne tokotaha pe ʻoku ai ha ongoongo ʻi hono ngutu.” Pea naʻa ne haʻu fakatoʻotoʻo pe, ʻo[ne ]fakaofiofi mai.
Omukuumi n’ayogerera waggulu n’ategeeza kabaka. Awo kabaka n’amugamba nti, “Bw’aba ng’ali yekka ateekwa okuba ng’aleeta mawulire malungi.” Omusajja n’asembera.
26 Pea naʻe mamata ʻe he tangata leʻo ki he tangata kehe ʻe tokotaha ʻoku lele: pea naʻe ui ʻe he tangata leʻo ki he tangata naʻe tauhi matapā, ʻo ne pehē, “Vakai ʻoku lele mai tokotaha pe ʻae tangata kehe.” Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he tuʻi, “ʻOku ʻomi ʻae ongoongo ʻe ia foki.”
Omukuumi n’alengera omusajja omulala ng’ajja adduka, n’akoowoola omuggazi nti, “Laba omusajja omulala ajja adduka yekka.” Kabaka n’ayogera nti, “Naye ateekwa okuba ng’aleeta mawulire malungi.”
27 Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he tangata leʻo, “ʻOku ou mahalo ʻoku lele ʻaia ʻoku muʻomuʻa ʻo hangē ko e lele ʻa ʻAhimasi, ko e foha ʻo Satoki.” Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he tuʻi, “Ko e tangata lelei ia, pea ʻoku ʻomi ʻe ia ʻae ongoongolelei.”
Awo omukuumi n’ayogera nti, “Kindabikira nga enziruka ey’oli akulembedde eri ng’eya Akimaazi mutabani wa Zadooki.” Kabaka n’ayogera nti, “Oyo musajja mulungi era ajja n’amawulire malungi.”
28 Pea naʻe ui ʻa ʻAhimasi, ʻo ne pehē ki he tuʻi, “Ke ke fiemālie.” Pea naʻa ne tōmapeʻe hifo ʻi hono mata ki he kelekele ʻi he ʻao ʻoe tuʻi, ʻo ne pehē, “Fakafetaʻi kia Sihova ko ho ʻOtua, ʻaia kuo ne fakamoʻua ʻae kau tangata naʻe hiki hake honau nima ke angatuʻu ki hoku ʻeiki ko e tuʻi.”
Awo Akimaazi n’ayogerera mu ddoboozi ery’omwanguka ng’agamba kabaka nti, “Byonna birungi.” N’avuunama mu maaso ga kabaka, ne yeeyala wansi n’ayogera nti, “Yeebazibwe Mukama Katonda wo, azikirizza abasajja abayimusizza omukono ku mukama wange kabaka.”
29 Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he tuʻi, “ʻOku lelei koā ʻae talavou ko ʻApisalomi?” Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ʻAhimasi, “ʻI heʻene fekau ʻa Soape ʻae tamaioʻeiki ʻae tuʻi pea mo au ko hoʻo tamaioʻeiki, naʻaku mamata ki he fuʻu vākē lahi ka naʻe ʻikai te u ʻilo ʻa hono ʻuhinga.”
Awo kabaka n’abuuza nti, “Omuvubuka Abusaalomu ali bulungi?” Akimaazi n’addamu nti, “Yowaabu bwe yabadde ng’anaatera okutuma omuddu wa kabaka, nange omuddu wo, nalabye oluyoogaano olunene, naye saategedde kyabadde wo.”
30 Pea naʻe pehē atu ʻe he tuʻi, “Tuʻu atu koe ki hena.” Pea naʻa ne tuʻu atu, mo ne tatali ai.
Kabaka n’amugamba nti, “Ggwe dda wabbali.” N’adda wabbali n’ayimirira awo.
31 Pea vakai, naʻe haʻu ʻa Kusi; pea naʻe pehē ʻe Kusi, “ʻE hoku ʻeiki ko e tuʻi, ʻoku ou ʻomi ʻae ongoongo: he kuo fai totongi he ʻaho ni ʻe Sihova maʻau kiate kinautolu kotoa pē naʻe tuʻu angatuʻu hake kiate koe.”
Awo Omukusi n’atuuka, n’ayogera nti, “Wulira amawulire amalungi mukama wange kabaka. Mukama akulokodde leero mu mukono gw’abo bonna abakuyimukiramu.”
32 Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he tuʻi kia Kusi, “ʻOku lelei koā ʻae talavou ko ʻApisalomi?” Pea naʻe pehēange ʻe Kusi, “Ke tatau mo e tangata talavou na, ʻae ngaahi fili ʻo hoku ʻeiki ko e tuʻi, pea mo kinautolu kotoa pē ʻoku tuʻu hake ke fai ha kovi kiate koe.”
Kabaka n’abuuza Omukusi nti, “Omuvubuka Abusaalomu mulamu?” Omukusi n’addamu nti, “Ekituuse ku muvubuka oyo, kituuke ku balabe ba mukama wange kabaka, n’abo bonna abamuyimukiramu okumukola akabi.”
33 Pea naʻe mamahi lahi ʻaupito ʻae tuʻi, pea naʻa ne ʻalu hake ki he potu fale naʻe ʻi ʻolunga ʻi he matanikolo mo ne tangi ai: pea lolotonga ʻa ʻene ʻalu naʻe pehē ʻa ʻene lea, “ʻE ʻApisalomi ko hoku foha, ʻa hoku foha, ʻa hoku foha ko ʻApisalomi, taumaiā kuo u mate koeʻuhi ko koe, ʻe ʻApisalomi, ko hoku foha, ko hoku foha.”
Kabaka n’afuna ensisi, n’ayambuka mu kisenge ekyali waggulu wa wankaaki, n’akaaba. N’agenda nga bw’ayogera nti, “Mutabani wange Abusaalomu, mutabani wange, mutabani wange Abusaalomu. Singa nze nfudde mu kifo kyo, Abusaalomu, mutabani wange!”
