1 Beresosɛm 19
1 Eyinom akyi no, Amonhene Nahas wui, na ne babarima Hanun bedii ade.
Awo oluvannyuma lw’ebyo, nga wayiseewo ebbanga, Nakasi kabaka w’Abamoni n’afa, mutabani we n’amusikira.
2 Dawid susuw ho se, “Mɛda ayamye adi akyerɛ Nahas ba Hanun, efisɛ nʼagya daa ayamye adi kyerɛɛ me.” Ɛno nti, Dawid tuu abɔfo ma wɔkɔɔ Hanun nkyɛn, kɔmaa no hyɛden wɔ nʼagya wu no ho. Bere a abɔfo no duu Amon asase so no,
Dawudi n’alowooza nti, “Nzija kulaga ebyekisa Kanuni mutabani wa Nakasi, kubanga ne kitaawe yankolera ebyekisa.” Awo Dawudi n’amuweereza ababaka okumukubagiza nga kitaawe amaze okufa. Naye abasajja ba Dawudi bwe baatuuka eri Kanuni mu nsi ey’Abamoni okumukubagiza,
3 Hanun asahene bisaa no se, “Enti wugye di ampa ara sɛ, saa mmarima yi baa sɛ wɔrebɛhyɛ wʼagya anuonyam? Dabi! Dawid asoma wɔn sɛ wɔmmɛsra asase yi, na wɔnam so ako agye.”
abakungu b’abaana ba Amoni ne bagamba Kanuni nti, “Olowooza nga Dawudi assaamu kitaawo ekitiibwa, bwakuweerezza abakubagizza? Era olowooza nga, abasajja be tebazze kulawuna na kuketta nsi era na kugirya?”
4 Enti Hanun kyeree Dawid abɔfo no, yii wɔn abogyesɛ, twitwaa wɔn ntade ano wɔ wɔn to ase, ma wɔsan kɔe.
Awo Kanuni n’alagira abasajja ba Dawudi bakwatibwe, n’abamwako enviiri n’abasalako n’ebirevu, n’asala ebyambalo byabwe wakati okukoma ku nnyuma, n’oluvannyuma n’abagoba baddeyo.
5 Bere a Dawid tee asɛm no, otuu abɔfo kɔɔ asomafo no nkyɛn kɔkae se, “Montena Yeriko mma mo abogyesɛ no mfuw ansa na moaba.” Efisɛ na wɔn ho ayɛ fɛre yiye.
Awo Dawudi bwe yawulira bye baakola abasajja be yatuma, n’abagamba nti, “Musigale e Yeriko okutuusa ebirevu byammwe lwe birikula, mulyoke mukomewo.”
6 Afei, Amonfo huu abufuwtraso a wɔahyɛ Dawid no, Hanun ne Amonfo soma ma wɔde dwetɛ nkaribo ani tɔn aduasa awotwe kogyee nteaseɛnam ne asraafodɔm fii Aram-naharaim, Aram-maaka ne Soba.
Awo abaana ba Amoni bwe baalaba nga Dawudi abanyiigidde; bo ne kabaka waabwe Kanuni ne baweereza ttani eza ffeeza amakumi asatu mu nnya e Mesopotamiya n’e Alamumaaka, ne Zoba, okubeyazikako amagaali n’abeebagala embalaasi.
7 Wɔsan pɛɛ nteaseɛnam mpem aduasa abien, na wonyaa akyigyina fii Maakahene ne nʼakofo nkyɛn. Saa asraafodɔm yi kyeree nsraban wɔ Medeba, ɛhɔ na Amon asraafodɔm a Hanun nya fii nʼankasa nkurow so no kɔkaa wɔn ho.
Beeyazika amagaali n’abeebagala embalaasi emitwalo esatu mu enkumi bbiri, era ne kabaka w’e Maaka n’eggye lye, abajja okumwegattako ne basiisira okumpi ne Medeba. Abaana ba Amoni bo baakuŋŋaana okuva mu bibuga byabwe ne bagenda okutabaala.
8 Bere a Dawid tee saa no, ɔsomaa Yoab ne nʼakofo sɛ wɔne wɔn nkɔko.
Olwawulira ekyo, Dawudi n’aweereza Yowaabu n’eggye lyonna ery’abasajja abalwanyi abazira.
9 Amonfo asraafo no begyinagyinaa kuropɔn no pon ano, na ahemfo a wɔaka no nso gyinagyinaa sare no so.
Abamoni ne bavaayo bategeke okutabaala nga basimbye ennyiriri ku wankaaki w’ekibuga kyabwe, ate nga bakabaka abaali bazze okubayamba baali bokka ku ttale.
10 Bere a Yoab huu sɛ ɛsɛ sɛ ɔko ha ne ha no, ɔpaw nʼakofodɔm no mu akofo a wonim ako yiye no. Ɔde wɔn hyɛɛ nʼankasa ase, dii wɔn anim kɔko tiaa Aramfo no a wogyinagyina sare so no.
Awo Yowaabu bwe yalaba ng’abalabe bamutabaala mu maaso n’emabega, n’alonda mu basajja be, abasajja abazira mu Isirayiri, era abo n’abaweereza okulwana n’Abasuuli.
11 Ogyaw asraafodɔm a wɔaka no maa ne nuabarima Abisai sɛ ɔnkɔtow nhyɛ Amonfo no so.
Abalala n’abakwasa Abisaayi muganda we okubaduumira, ne bagenda okulwana n’Abamoni.
12 Na Yoab ka kyerɛɛ ne nuabarima no se, “Sɛ Aramfo no yɛ den ma me dodo a, bra na bɛboa me.” Yoab toaa so se, “Sɛ Amonfo no yɛ den dodo ma wo a, mɛba abɛboa wo.
Yowaabu n’agamba muganda we nti, “Abasuuli bwe banaaba nga bansinza amaanyi, onojja n’ombeera, naye Abamoni bwe banaaba nga bakusinza amaanyi nange nzija kujja nkubeere.
13 Hyɛ wo ho den. Ma yɛmfa akokoduru nko nnye yɛn nkurɔfo ne yɛn Onyankopɔn nkurow. Awurade bɛyɛ nea eye wɔ nʼani so.”
Guma omwoyo, tulwanirire abantu baffe n’ebibuga bya Katonda waffe n’obuzira. Mukama akole ng’okusiima kwe bwe kuli.”
14 Bere a Yoab ne nʼakofo no tow hyɛɛ Aramfo no so no, wofii ase guanee.
Awo Yowaabu n’abalwanyi be yalina ne batabaala Abasuuli, Abasuuli ne babadduka.
15 Na Amonfo huu sɛ Aramfo no reguan no, woguan fi Abisai anim kɔɔ kuropɔn no mu. Afei, Yoab san kɔɔ Yerusalem.
Abaana ba Amoni bwe balaba ng’Abasuuli badduse, nabo ne badduka Abisaayi muganda wa Yowaabu, ne bayingira ekibuga. Awo Yowaabu n’addayo e Yerusaalemi.
16 Aramfo no huu sɛ ɛnyɛ wɔn afɛ ne Israelfo no nti, wɔfrɛɛ Aram asraafodɔm foforo fii Asubɔnten Eufrate ho sɛ wɔmmɛboa. Saa asraafodɔm a wɔhyɛ Sofak a ɔyɛ Hadadeser asraafodɔm nyinaa so sahene ase no bae.
Abasuuli bwe baalaba nga Isirayiri abawangudde, ne batuma ababaka, okuggyayo Abasuuli abaali emitala w’Omugga Fulaati, nga Sofaki omuduumizi ow’eggye lya Kadalezeri yabakulembedde.
17 Bere a Dawid tee asɛm a asi no, ɔboaboaa Israel nyinaa ano, de wɔn twaa Asubɔnten Yordan, de nʼakofo no gyinagyinaa wɔn mpasua so. Afei, ɔne atamfo no de ɔko hyehyɛɛ so, ma wɔko tiaa no.
Awo Dawudi bwe yategeezebwa ebyo, n’akuŋŋaanya Isirayiri yenna, n’asomoka Yoludaani nabo, n’agenda n’abalumba n’asimba ennyiriri ng’abesimbye mu maaso. Dawudi n’atandika okulwana n’Abasuuli, n’abo ne bamulwanyisa.
18 Ɛha nso, Aramfo no guan fii Israelfo no anim, na Dawid asraafo no kunkum nteaseɛnamkafo mpem ason ne anammɔnmufo asraafo mpem aduanan a Sofak a ɔyɛ wɔn so sahene no ka ho.
Naye Abasuuli ne badduka Isirayiri, era Dawudi n’atta abeebagala embalaasi kasanvu, n’abaserikale ab’ebigere emitwalo ena. Ate n’atta ne Sofaki omuduumizi w’eggye lyabwe.
19 Hadadeser asomfo huu sɛ Israel adi wɔn so nkonim no, wɔmaa wɔn nsa so, maa Dawid faa wɔn sɛ ne nkoa. Ɛno akyi no, Aramfo ampɛ sɛ wɔbɛboa Amonfo bio.
Awo abantu ba Kadalezeri bwe baalaba nga bawanguddwa Isirayiri, ne batabagana ne Dawudi era ne bafuuka abaddu be; so n’Abasuuli tebakkiriza kuyamba abaana be Amooni nate.
