< 2 Samuel 10 >

1 Akyiri no, Amonfo hene Nahas wui. Ne babarima Hanun na odii nʼade sɛ ɔhene.
Patapita nthawi, mfumu ya Aamoni inamwalira, ndipo mwana wake Hanuni analowa ufumu mʼmalo mwake.
2 Dawid kae se, “Mɛyɛ Nahas babarima Hanun adɔe, sɛnea nʼagya yɛɛ me adɔe no.” Nʼagya wu nti, Dawid tuu abɔfo kɔɔ ne nkyɛn kɔmaa no hyɛden. Bere a Dawid abɔfo baa Amonfo asase so no,
Davide anaganiza kuti, “Ine ndidzachitira chifundo Hanuni mwana wa Nahasi chifukwa abambo ake anandichitira zabwino.” Choncho Davide anatumiza anthu kuti akamupepesere kwa Hanuni chifukwa cha imfa ya abambo ake. Anthu amene Davide anawatuma atafika kwa Hanuni mʼdziko la Aamoni,
3 Amonfo atitiriw no kobisaa wɔn wura Hanun se, “Wugye di sɛ ba a Dawid somaa nʼabɔfo baa wo nkyɛn bɛmaa wo hyɛden no kyerɛ nidi ampa ara ana? Wunnye nni sɛ Dawid somaa wɔn akwansra so, sɛ wɔmmɛhwɛ wo kuropɔn na wɔabetu agu?”
atsogoleri a ankhondo a Aamoni anawuza Hanuni mbuye wawo kuti, “Kodi mukuganiza kuti Davide akupereka ulemu kwa abambo anu potumiza anthuwa kwa inu kudzapepesa? Kodi Davide sanawatumize anthuwa kuti adzaone mzinda wanu ndi kuchita ukazitape ndi cholinga chofuna kuwulanda?”
4 Ɛno nti, Hanun kyeree Dawid abɔfo no, yii obiara abogyesɛ fa, twitwaa wɔn ntade to mfimfini hɔ, tutuu mu, na wogyaa wɔn kwan, ma wɔde animguase kɔe.
Choncho Hanuni anagwira anthu amene Davide anawatuma aja ndipo anameta munthu aliyense mbali imodzi ya ndevu zake, ndi kudula zovala zake pakati mʼchiwuno mpaka matako kuonekera, ndipo anawabweza kwawo.
5 Bere a wɔbɔɔ Dawid amanneɛ no, otuu abɔfo ma wokohyiaa mmarima no, efisɛ woguu wɔn anim ase yiye. Ɔhene ka kyerɛɛ wɔn se, “Montena Yeriko kosi sɛ mo abogyesɛ befuw ansa na moasan aba.”
Atamufotokozera Davide zimenezi, iye anatuma amithenga kukakumana ndi anthuwo chifukwa anali ndi manyazi kwambiri. Mfumu inati, “Mukhale ku Yeriko mpaka ndevu zanu zitakula, ndipo kenaka mubwere kuno.”
6 Bere a Amonfo huu sɛ wɔahyɛ Dawid abufuw no, wɔkɔbɔɔ Aramfo asraafo mpem aduonu paa fii Bet-Rehob ne Soba. Saa ara na Maakahene nso maa wɔn mmarima apem fii ne nkyɛn, na Tob nso wonyaa mmarima mpem dumien.
Aamoni atazindikira kuti amukwiyitsa kwambiri Davide, anakapeza ankhondo oyenda pansi aganyu okwanira 20,000 kuchokera ku Asiriya wa ku Beti Rehobu ndi Aramu-Zoba, komanso ankhondo 1,000 kwa mfumu Maaka ndiponso ankhondo 22,000 ochokera ku Tobu.
7 Dawid tee saa no, ɔkaa Yoab ne akofo asraafo guu mu.
Davide atamva zimenezi, anatumiza Yowabu ndi gulu lonse la ankhondo amphamvu.
8 Amonfo no gyinaa wɔn kurow pon ano. Saa bere no na Aramfo a wofi Soba ne Rehob ne mmarima a wofi Tob ne Maaka no wɔ mfikyiri baabiara retwɛn ɔtamfo no.
Aamoni anatuluka ndi kukhala mʼmizere ya nkhondo pa chipata cha mzinda wawo, pamene Aaramu a ku Aramu-Zoba ndi Rehobu ndi ankhondo a ku Tobu ndi Maaka anali kwa wokha ku malo wopanda mitengo.
9 Bere a Yoab huu sɛ ɔrebɛko akofanu no, oyii asraafo a wɔyɛ nnam. Ɔno ara dii wɔn so safohene, dii wɔn anim, kɔko tiaa Aramfo no wɔ mfikyiri hɔ.
Yowabu ataona kuti kunali mizere ya ankhondo kutsogolo kwake ndi kumbuyo kwake, iye anasankha ena mwa ankhondo a Israeli odziwa kuchita bwino nkhondo ndipo anawayika kuti amenyane ndi Aaramu.
10 Ogyaw asraafo no nkae hɔ, de wɔn hyɛɛ ne nuabarima Abisai nsa sɛ ɔsafohene a ɔbɛkɔ akotua Amonfo no.
Iye anayika ankhondo ena otsalawo mʼmanja mwa Abisai mʼbale wake ndipo anawayika kuti amenyane ndi Aamoni.
11 Yoab ka kyerɛɛ ne nuabarima no se, “Sɛ Aramfo no yɛ den dodo ma me a, ɛyɛ a, bɛboa me. Na sɛ Amonfo no nso yɛ den dodo ma wo a, me nso, mɛba abɛboa wo.
Yowabu anati, “Ngati Aaramu andipose mphamvu, iwe ubwere udzandipulumutse. Koma ngati Aamoni akupose mphamvu, ine ndidzabwera kudzakupulumutsa.
12 Ma wo bo nyɛ duru. Ma yɛnko akokoduru so mfa nnye yɛn nkurɔfo ne Onyankopɔn nkurow. Awurade pɛ nyɛ hɔ.”
Limba mtima ndipo timenyane nawo mopanda mantha chifukwa cha anthu athu ndi mizinda ya Mulungu wathu. Yehova achite chomukomera pamaso pake.”
13 Bere a Yoab ne nʼakofo no tow hyɛɛ Aramfo no so no, wofii ase guanee.
Choncho Yowabu ndi ankhondo amene anali naye anapita kukamenyana ndi Aaramu, ndipo iwo anathawa pamaso pake.
14 Na Amonfo no huu sɛ Aramfo no reguan no, woguan fii Abisai ho kɔhyɛɛ kurow no mu. Ɔko no gui no, Yoab san kɔɔ Yerusalem.
Aamoni atazindikira kuti Aaramu akuthawa, iwo anathawanso pamaso pa Abisai ndi kulowa mu mzinda. Nkhondo itatha, Yowabu anabwerera ku Yerusalemu.
15 Afei, Aramfo no huu sɛ ɛnyɛ wɔn afɛ ne Israelfo. Enti wɔboaa wɔn ho ano bio.
Aaramu ataona kuti agonjetsedwa ndi Aisraeli, anasonkhananso.
16 Aram asraafo foforo bi bɛkaa wɔn ho a Hadadeser na ɔsoma ma wɔkɔfaa wɔn fii Asubɔnten Eufrate fa nohɔ bae. Saa asraafo no beduu Helam a Sobak na na ɔyɛ wɔn ɔsahene, na ɔyɛ ɔsahene a otua Hadadeser asraafo nyinaa ano nso.
Hadadezeri anatumiza amithenga kukayitana Aaramu amene anali ku tsidya la Mtsinje, iwo anapita ku Helamu motsogozedwa ndi Sobaki mkulu wa ankhondo a Hadadezeri.
17 Bere a Dawid tee nea ɛreba no, ɔboaboaa Israel nyinaa ano, de wɔn twaa Asubɔnten Yordan, dii asraafo no anim, koduu Helam. Ɛhɔ na Aramfo no fifii wɔn mpasua so tow hyɛɛ Dawid so.
Davide atawuzidwa zimenezi, iye anasonkhanitsa Aisraeli onse ndi kuwoloka Yorodani ndipo anapita ku Helamu. Aaramu anayima mʼmizere yawo yankhondo kukakumana ndi Davide ndipo anamenyana naye.
18 Nanso Aramfo no guan fii Israelfo no anim bio. Saa bere no, Dawid asraafo no kunkum nteaseɛnamkafo ahanson ne apɔnkɔsotefo mpem aduanan a Sobak a na ɔyɛ wɔn sahene no ka ho.
Koma iwo anathawa pamaso pa Aisraeli, ndipo Davide anapha anthu okwera pa magaleta 700 ndi ankhondo oyenda pansi 40,000. Davide anaphanso Sobaki mtsogoleri wawo wankhondo ndipo anafera pomwepo.
19 Bere a ahemfo a wɔhyɛ Hadadeser ase no huu sɛ Israel adi wɔn so nkonim no, wɔmaa wɔn nsa so, na wɔbɛyɛɛ Israelfo nkoa. Ɛno akyi no, Aramfo suroo sɛ wɔbɛboa Amonfo.
Mafumu onse amene anali pansi pa Hadadezeri ataona kuti agonjetsedwa ndi Aisraeli, iwo anachita mtendere ndi Aisraeli ndipo anakhala pansi pawo. Motero Aaramu anaopa kuthandizanso Aamoni.
