1 Samuel 25

1 Afei, Samuel wui, na Israel nyinaa hyia yɛɛ nʼayi. Na wosiee no wɔ ne kurom Rama. Na Dawid tu kɔɔ Maon sare so.

Samueli anamwalira, ndipo Aisraeli onse anasonkhana kudzalira maliro ake ndipo anamuyika mʼmanda ku mudzi kwawo ku Rama. Ndipo Davide anapita ku chipululu cha Parani.

2 Na ɔbarima bi fi Maon a na ɔwɔ agyapade wɔ baabi a ɛbɛn Karmel yɛ ɔdefo kɛse. Na ɔwɔ mmirekyi apem ne nguan mpensa a na otwitwa wɔn nwi wɔ Karmel.

Kunali munthu wina wolemera kwambiri ku Maoni amene malo ake a ntchito anali ku Karimeli. Iyeyu anali ndi mbuzi 1,000 ndi nkhosa 3,000.

3 Saa ɔbarima no din de Nabal, na ne yere nso din de Abigail. Na ɔyɛ ɔbea a onim nyansa na ne ho nso yɛ fɛ, nanso na ne kunu a ɔyɛ Kalebni no mpɔw ɛ, na ne suban nso nyɛ fɛ.

Dzina lake linali Nabala ndipo anali wa fuko la Kalebe. Dzina la mkazi wake linali Abigayeli. Anali mkazi wanzeru ndi wokongola, koma mwamuna wake, wa banja la Kalebe, anali wowuma mtima ndi wamwano pa zochita zake.

4 Bere a Dawid tee sɛ Nabal retwitwa ne mmoa ho nwi no,

Davide anamva akanali ku chipululu kuti Nabala akumeta nkhosa.

5 ɔsomaa mmrante du kɔɔ ne nkyɛn. Ɔde nkra maa wɔn se,

Choncho anatuma anyamata khumi nawawuza kuti, “Pitani kwa Nabala ku Karimeli ndipo mukamulonjere mʼdzina langa.

6 “Wo nkwa so! Wo ne wo fifo nyinaa nya akwahosan! Na wʼagyapade nyinaa nso saa ara.

Mukamuwuze kuti, ‘Mtendere ukhale ndi inu, banja lanu pamodzi ndi zonse zimene muli nazo.

7 “Mate sɛ woretwitwa wo nguan ne mmirekyi ho nwi. Bere a na mo nguanhwɛfo wɔ yɛn nkyɛn ha no, yɛanyɛ wɔn basabasa. Na mmere dodow a wodii wɔ Karmel no nso, wɔn biribiara anyera.

“‘Tsono ndamva kuti muli ndi anthu ometa nkhosa. Pamene abusa anu anali nafe kuno, sitinawachite china chilichonse choyipa, ndipo sanasowe kanthu pa nthawi yonse imene anali ku Karimeli.

8 Bisa wo ara wʼasomfo na wɔbɛka akyerɛ wo. Yɛaba ha wɔ afahyɛ bere, ɛno nti, mesrɛ wo, ma wo nkoa ne wo ba Dawid biribiara a wo nsa bɛso so.”

Muwafunse antchito anu ndipo akuwuzani. Kotero akomereni mtima anyamata anga, pakuti tabwera pa nthawi yachikondwerero. Chonde apatseniko antchito anuwo ndi mwana wanu Davide chilichonse chimene mungakhale nacho.’”

9 Dawid mmerante no de nkra no maa Nabal. Afei wɔtwɛnee.

Anyamata a Davide aja atafika, anamuwuza Nabala zonse zimene Davide anayankhula. Ndipo anadikira yankho.

10 Nabal buaa Dawid asomfo no se, “Hena ne saa Dawid yi? Saa Yisai babarima yi dwene sɛ ɔne hena? Nnansa yi, asomfo bebree retetew wɔn ho afi wɔn wuranom ho.

Nabala anayankha anyamata a Davide kuti, “Kodi Davide ndi ndani? Mwana wa Yese ndi ndani? Masiku ano pali antchito ambiri amene akuthawa kwa mabwana awo.

11 Adɛn nti na ɛsɛ sɛ mede me brodo ne me nsu ne mʼaboa a makum no nam a mede rebɛma me nwitwitwafo no ma nnipa a obi nnim faako a wofi?”

Nditengerenji buledi, madzi ndi nyama zimene ndaphera anthu anga ometa nkhosa ndi kuzipereka kwa anthu amene sindikudziwa kumene achokera?”

12 Na Dawid mmarima no san kɔe, kɔkaa de Nabal kae no kyerɛɛ no.

Choncho anyamata a Davide aja anatembenuka nabwerera. Atafika anafotokozera Davide mawu onse a Nabala.

13 Dawid ka kyerɛɛ ne mmarima no se, “Momfa mo afoa.” Na Dawid nso faa ne de. Mmarima bɛyɛ sɛ ahannan na wɔkaa Dawid ho kɔe, ɛnna mmarima ahannu nso tena wɛn akode no.

Davide anawuza anthu ake kuti, “Aliyense amangirire lupanga lake!” Choncho aliyense anamangirira lupanga lake. Davidenso anamangirira lupanga lake. Anthu pafupifupi 400 ndiwo anapita ndi Davide, pamene anthu 200 anatsala ndi katundu.

14 Nabal asomfo no mu baako kɔka kyerɛɛ Nabal yere Abigail se, “Dawid somaa abɔfo fi sare no so sɛ wɔne yɛn wura mmɛkasa, nanso ɔyeyaw wɔn.

Tsono mmodzi mwa antchito anawuza Abigayeli mkazi wa Nabala kuti, “Davide anatumiza amithenga kuchokera ku chipululu kudzalonjera mbuye wathu, koma iye anawalalatira.

15 Nanso Dawid nnipa no ye ma yɛn. Wɔanyɛ yɛn bɔne biara. Bere a yɛne wɔn wɔ hɔ no, wɔamfa yɛn biribiara.

Komatu anthuwa anatichitira zabwino kwambiri. Sanatizunze, ndipo nthawi yonse imene tinali nawo ku busa sitinasowe kanthu.

16 Anadwo ne awia nyinaa, na wɔbɔ yɛn ne nguan no ho ban.

Ankatitchinjiriza ngati mpanda usiku ndi usana nthawi yonse tinkaweta nkhosa.

17 Enti dwene ho yiye, anyɛ saa a asɛm bɛto yɛn wura ne nʼabusua nyinaa. Ɔyɛ obi a ne koma nye na obiara ntumi nkasa nkyerɛ no.”

Tsono onani chimene mungachite, chifukwa zimenezi zingadzetse tsoka pa mbuye wathu pamodzi ndi nyumba yake. Paja mbuye athu aja ndi munthu wa khalidwe loyipa moti palibe amene angathe kuyankhula naye.”

18 Abigail ansɛe bere koraa. Ɔfaa brodo mua ahannu, nsa aboa nhoma abien, nguan anum a wɔakum wɔn asiesie wɔn, nkyewe susude anum, bobe ɔfam ɔha ne bobe aba a wɔabɔ no atɔwatɔw ahannu de soaa mfurum.

Ndipo Abigayeli sanataye nthawi. Iye anatenga malofu a buledi 200, matumba a chikopa awiri a vinyo, nkhosa zisanu zowotcheratu, makilogalamu 17 a tirigu wokazinga, makeke a mphesa zowuma 100, ndiponso makeke a nkhuyu 200, ndipo anazisenzetsa abulu.

19 Na ɔka kyerɛɛ nʼasomfo se, “Munni kan nkɔ. Metiw mo.” Nanso wanka nea na ɔreyɛ no ankyerɛ ne kunu Nabal.

Kenaka anawuza antchito ake kuti, “Tsogolani, ine ndikutsatirani.” Koma sanawuze mwamuna wake Nabala.

20 Ɔte nʼafurum so nam ara kosii bepɔw bi asiansian mu no, ohuu Dawid nso ne ne mmarima sɛ wɔrehyia no.

Mayi uja atakwera pa bulu wake ndi kufika pa tsinde la phiri, anangoona Davide ndi ankhondo ake akubwera kunali iye. Choncho anakumana nawo.

21 Na Dawid aka se, “Mfaso biara nni so sɛ mahwɛ saa onipa yi agyapade so wɔ sare so a ne biribiara anyera. Ɔde bɔne atua me papa a meyɛɛ no no so ka.

Nthawiyi nʼkuti Davide atanena kuti, “Kani ndinalondera pachabe katundu wa munthu uyu mʼchipululu muja! Ndipotu palibe kanthu nʼkamodzi komwe kake kamene kanasowa. Tsono wandibwezera zoyipa mʼmalo mwa zabwino.

22 Sɛ ɛba sɛ ɔkyena ne fini barima bi da so te ase a, Onyankopɔn ne me nni no ɔyaw so pa ara.”

Mulungu andilange kwambiri ngati pofika mmawa nditakhale nditasiyako ngakhale munthu mmodzi mwa onse amene ali nawo.”

23 Abigail huu Dawid no, ntɛm ara, ohuruw fii nʼafurum no so sii fam, bɔɔ ne mu ase wɔ nʼanim.

Abigayeli ataona Davide, anatsika pa bulu wake mofulumira ndipo anadzigwetsa pansi pamaso pa Davide.

24 Ɔhwee ne nan ase kae se, “Me wura migye saa asɛm yi ho afɔdi nyinaa to me ho so. Mesrɛ wo sɛ, tie asɛm a mewɔ ka.

Ali chigonere choncho pa mapazi a Davide anati, “Mbuye wanga, kulakwa kukhale pa ine ndekha. Chonde lolani kuti mdzakazi wanune ndiyankhule nanu, ndipo mumve mawu a ine mdzakazi wanu.

25 Minim sɛ Nabal yɛ otirimɔdenfo; mesrɛ wo, ntie no. Ɔyɛ ɔkwasea sɛnea ne din kyerɛ no. Na me, wʼafenaa, abɔfo a wosomaa wɔn no, manhu wɔn.

Mbuye wanga musasamale za mwamuna wanga Nabala, munthu wa khalidwe loyipa. Iyeyu ali monga dzina lake liliri. Monga dzina lake litanthauza kuti chitsiru, ndiye kuti zake zonse ndi zauchitsiru basi. Koma ine mdzakazi wanu, sindinawaone anthu amene mbuye wanga munawatuma.

26 Afei, me wura, mpɛn dodow a Awurade te ase, na wo nso wote ase na Awurade amma woamfa awudi ne aweretɔ anhyɛ wo nsam yi, ma mmusu mmra wʼatamfo nyinaa so, sɛnea bi aba Nabal so yi.

Tsono mbuye wanga muli apa, ndikulumbira pali Yehova wamoyo amene wakuletsani kuti musakhetse magazi a munthu ndi kulipsira nokha, kuti adani anu amene afuna kukuchitani zoyipa adzakhale ngati Nabala.

27 Akyɛde a mede abrɛ wo ne wo mmerante no ni.

Choncho, nazi mphatso zimene mdzakazi wanu ndabwera nazo kwa mbuye wanga kuti zipatsidwe kwa anyamata amene muli nawo.

28 “Mesrɛ wo, sɛ mafom a, fa kyɛ me. Akyinnye biara nni ho sɛ Awurade de ofi a nʼahenni ase betim bɛdom wo, efisɛ woreko Awurade ko. Na wonyɛɛ bɔne biara nso wɔ wʼasetena mu.

Chonde khululukani zolakwa za ine mdzakazi wanu. Ndithu Yehova adzakhazikitsa banja la mbuye wanga mu ufumu, popeza mukumenya nkhondo ya Yehova. Choncho choyipa sichidzapezeka mwa inu masiku onse a moyo wanu.

29 Na sɛ ɛba sɛ wɔn a wɔpɛ wo kra no taataa wo so a, Awurade, wo Nyankopɔn, begye wo, abɔ wo ho ban sɛnea wɔbɔ ademude ho ban no. Na wʼatamfo nkwa de, ɛbɛyera te sɛ abo a wɔatow fi ahwimmo mu.

Ngati munthu wina akuwukirani ndi kukulondani, Yehova Mulungu wanu adzateteza moyo wa mbuye wanga monga mmene munthu asungira chuma mʼphukusi, koma moyo wa adani anu adzawutaya kutali monga momwe munthu amaponyera mwala ndi legeni.

30 Sɛ Awurade di bɔ a ɔhyɛɛ wo no nyinaa so ma wo, na ɔde wo di Israelhene a,

Yehova adzakuchitirani mbuye wanga zabwino zonse zimene anakulonjezani. Adzakuyikani kukhala wolamulira Aisraeli.

31 mma eyi nnyɛ nkekae wɔ wʼabrabɔ mu. Na worensoa wʼahonim adesoa duruduru a efi mogyahwiegu ne aweretɔ a so nni mfaso ho. Na sɛ Awurade yɛ saa nneɛma akɛse yi ma wo a, mesrɛ wo, kae me!”

Zikadzatero, inu mbuye wanga simudzakhala ndi chikumbumtima choti munakhetsa magazi kapena kulipsira popanda chifukwa. Koma Yehova akadzakuchitirani zabwino zonsezi musadzandiyiwale ine mdzakazi wanu.”

32 Dawid buaa Abigail se, “Nhyira nka Awurade, Israel Nyankopɔn a wama woabehyia me nnɛ.

Tsono Davide anawuza Abigayeli kuti, “Alemekezeke Yehova Mulungu wa Israeli, amene wakutuma iwe lero kuti ukumane nane.

33 Da Awurade ase wɔ wʼadwene pa ho. Nhyira nka wo sɛ woamma me ankum ɔbarima no, na woamma mamfa me nsa antɔ were.

Yehova akudalitseni chifukwa cha nzeru zanu pondiletsa lero kuti ndisakhetse magazi ndi kubwezera adani anga ndi manja anga.

34 Na meka Awurade, Israel Nyankopɔn a wamma manyɛ wo bɔne no ntam sɛ, sɛ woanka wo ho ammehyia me a, anka ebedu ɔkyena anɔpa no, na Nabal mmarima no mu baako koraa nte ase.”

Kunena zoona, pali Yehova Wamoyo, Mulungu wa Israeli, amene wandiletsa kuti ndisakupwetekeni, mukanapanda kubwera msanga kudzakumana nane, palibe munthu aliyense wamwamuna wa Nabala akanasiyidwa wamoyo pakucha mmawa.”

35 Na Dawid gyee nʼakyɛde no, ka kyerɛɛ no se, “San kɔ fie asomdwoe mu. Yɛrenkum wo kunu no.”

Ndipo Davide analandira kwa mayiyo zimene anamutengera ndipo anati, “Pitani kwanu mu mtendere. Ine ndamva mawu anu ndipo ndavomera zimene mwapempha.”

36 Bere a Abigail duu fie no, ohuu sɛ Nabal ato pon kɛse sɛ ɔhene. Na wabow nsa nti, wanka biribiara a ɛfa ɔne Dawid nhyiamu no ho ankyerɛ no kosii adekyee.

Abigayeli atabwerera kwa Nabala anamupeza ali mʼnyumba akuchita mphwando ngati la mfumu. Iye anali atakondwa kwambiri popeza anali ataledzera kwambiri. Choncho mkazi wakeyo sanamuwuze kalikonse mpaka mmawa kutacha.

37 Ade kyee a nʼani so daa hɔ no, Abigail kaa nsɛm a asisi no kyerɛɛ no. Nabal tee nsɛm no, obubu kaa mpa mu.

Tsono mmawa, mowa utamuchoka Nabala, mkazi wake anamuwuza zonse. Pomwepo mtima wake unaleka kugunda ndipo unawuma gwaa ngati mwala.

38 Nnafua du akyi no, Awurade bɔɔ no ma owui.

Patapita masiku khumi, Yehova anakantha Nabala ndipo anafa.

39 Dawid tee sɛ Nabal awu no, ɔkae se, “Nhyira nka Awurade a watua Nabal ka na wamma mankum no. Nabal anya ne bɔne so akatua.” Na Dawid yɛɛ ntɛm soma kɔɔ Abigail nkyɛn, ma wɔkɔka kyerɛɛ no se ɔbɛware no.

Pamene Davide anamva kuti Nabala wamwalira, iye anati, “Alemekezeke Yehova, walipsira Nabala chipongwe chimene anandichita ndipo anandiletsa ine mtumiki wake kuti ndisachite choyipa. Yehova wabwezera pamutu pa Nabala choyipa chimene iye anachita.” Kenaka Davide anatumiza mawu kwa Abigayeli, kumupempha kuti akhale mkazi wake.

40 Asomfo no kɔɔ Karmel kɔka kyerɛɛ Abigail se, “Dawid asoma yɛn sɛ yɛmmra mmɛfa wo mmrɛ no sɛ ne yere.”

Anyamata a Davide atafika ku Karimeli anawuza Abigayeli kuti, “Davide watituma kwa iwe kuti tikutenge ukhale mkazi wake.”

41 Ɔbɔɔ ne mu ase de nʼanim kyerɛɛ fam kae se, “Yiw, masiesie me ho sɛ mɛsom Dawid asomfo mpo.”

Abigayeli anagwada nagunditsa nkhope yake pansi ndipo anati, “Ine mdzakazi wa mbuye wanga ndakonzeka kutumikira ngakhale kusambitsa mapazi a anyamata ake.”

42 Ntɛm ara, Abigail huruw tenaa nʼafurum so, faa ne mmaawa baanum kaa ne ho, na ɔne Dawid asomfo no kɔe, na ɔbɛyɛɛ Dawid yere.

Motero Abigayeli ananyamuka mofulumira nakwera bulu wake. Tsono iye pamodzi ndi anamwali ake asanu amene ankamutumikira, anatsagana ndi amithenga a Davide aja ndipo anakakhala mkazi wake wa Davide.

43 Dawid waree Ahinoam a ofi Yesreel, na wɔn baanu bɛyɛɛ ne yerenom.

Davide nʼkuti atakwatiranso Ahinoamu wa ku Yezireeli ndipo onse awiri anali akazi ake.

44 Na Saulo de ne babea Mikal, Dawid yere, ama ɔbarima bi a ofi Galim a ne din de Palti a na ɔyɛ Lais babarima.

Koma Sauli anali atakwatitsa Mikala, mkazi wa Davide kwa Paliti mwana wa Laisi wa ku Galimu.
