2 Samuel 15

1 Eyi akyi no, Absalom tɔɔ teaseɛnam ne apɔnkɔ, na ɔbɔɔ mmarima aduonum paa sɛ wobedi nʼanim.

Bwe waayitawo ebbanga, Abusaalomu ne yeefunira amagaali, n’embalaasi, n’abasajja amakumi ataano okumukulemberangamu.

2 Adekyee biara, ɔsɔre ntɛm na wakɔtena kuropɔn no pon ano. Na sɛ nnipa bi de asɛm bɛto ɔhene no anim sɛ ommu ho atɛn a, Absalom bebisa faako a wofi, na wɔakyerɛ abusuakuw a wofi mu.

Yagolokokanga mu makya n’ayimirira ku mabbali g’ekkubo okwolekera wankaaki w’ekibuga. Omuntu yenna bwe yabanga n’ensonga gye yaleeteranga kabaka okulamula, Abusaalomu yamuyitanga n’amubuuza nti, “Oviira mu kibuga ki?” Bwe yaddangamu nti, “Omuddu wo aviira mu kimu ku bika bya Isirayiri,”

3 Na Absalom bɛka se, “Wʼasɛm yɛ dɛ de, nanso ɔhene nni obiara a obetie.

Abusaalomu n’alyoka amugamba nti, “Laba, ensonga ntuufu era etegeerekeka, naye tewali muntu anaagikulamulira.”

4 Sɛ meyɛ otemmufo anka mepɛ. Anka nnipa de wɔn nsɛm bɛba mʼanim, na mabu wɔn atɛn.”

Ate era Abusaalomu yayongerangako ne kino nti, “Singa nnondebwa okuba omukulembeze mu nsi, olwo buli muntu alina ensonga anajjanga gye ndi, ne mukolera ku nsonga ye.”

5 Sɛ nnipa pɛ sɛ wɔkotow no a, Absalom remma wɔn nyɛ saa na mmom obeso wɔn nsa, ayɛ wɔn atuu.

Ate era omuntu yenna eyajjanga n’amuvuunamira ng’amuwa ekitiibwa, yagololanga omukono gwe, n’amukwatako n’amunywegera ng’amulamusa.

6 Absalom yɛɛ saa de nyaa Israelfo no nyinaa wɔ nʼafa.

Bw’atyo Abusaalomu bwe yeeyisanga eri Abayisirayiri bonna abajjanga eri kabaka nga baagala okubalamulira ensonga zaabwe. Ekyavaamu n’abba emitima gy’abantu ba Isirayiri.

7 Mfirihyia anan akyi no, Absalom ka kyerɛɛ ɔhene no se, “Ma menkɔ Hebron na menkɔbɔ afɔre mma Awurade sɛnea mahyɛ no bɔ no.

Oluvannyuma lw’emyaka ena, Abusaalomu n’agamba kabaka nti, “Nkwegayiridde, nzikiriza ŋŋende e Kebbulooni, ntuukirize obweyamo bwange bwe nakola eri Mukama.

8 Bere a na mewɔ Gesur no na mehyɛɛ saa bɔ no se, ‘Sɛ Awurade de me san ba Yerusalem a, mɛbɔ afɔre ama no wɔ Hebron.’”

Omuweereza wo bwe yabeeranga e Gesuli mu Busuuli, nakola obweyamo nga ŋŋamba nti, ‘Mukama bw’alinzizaayo e Yerusaalemi, ndisinza Mukama.’”

9 Ɔhene no kae se, “Eye, kɔ na kodi wo bɔhyɛ so.” Enti Absalom kɔɔ Hebron.

Kabaka n’amuddamu nti, “Ggenda mirembe.” N’asitula n’alaga e Kebbulooni.

10 Bere a ɔwɔ hɔ no, ɔfaa sum ase somaa abɔfo kɔɔ Israel mmaa nyinaa kɔhwanyan ɔmanfo de tiaa ɔhene no. Ne nkra ne se, “Sɛ mote torobɛnto nne pɛ a, monka se, ‘Absalom adi hene wɔ Hebron.’”

Abusaalomu n’atuma ababaka kyama mu bika byonna ebya Isirayiri, babagambe nti, “Amangwago nga muwulidde okuvuga kw’amakondeere, mwogere nti, ‘Abusaalomu ye kabaka e Kebbulooni.’”

11 Absalom faa mmarima ahannu fii Yerusalem kaa ne ho a na wonnim Absalom nsusuwii yi ho hwee.

Abasajja ebikumi bibiri be baawerekera Abusaalomu oluvannyuma olw’okuyitibwa ng’abagenyi, songa tebaalina kye baamanya ku nsonga eyo.

12 Bere a Absalom rebɔ afɔre no, ɔsoma ma wɔkɔfaa Giloni Ahitofel a na ɔyɛ Dawid fotufo fi ne kurom Gilo bae. Enti pɔwbɔ no mu yɛɛ den na nnipa bebree no ara bɛkaa Absalom ho.

Mu kiseera ekyo, Abusaalomu bwe yali ng’awaayo ssaddaaka, n’atumya Akisoferi Omugiro, omuwi w’amagezi owa Dawudi, okuva mu kibuga ky’e Giro. Obujeemu ne bwongerwamu amaanyi n’abagoberezi ba Abusaalomu ne beeyongeranga obungi.

13 Ankyɛ, ɔbɔfo bi baa Yerusalem bɛka kyerɛɛ ɔhene Dawid se, “Israel nyinaa atu di Absalom akyi sɛ wɔayɛ adɔm atia wo.”

Omubaka n’ajja n’ategeeza Dawudi nti, “Emitima gy’abantu ba Isirayiri gigoberedde Abusaalomu.”

14 Ɛhɔ ara, Dawid ka kyerɛɛ ne mmarima se, “Monyɛ no ntɛm na yenguan mfi ha, ansa na wadu ha, sɛnea amanehunu bɛpare yɛn ne Yerusalem kurow mu no nyinaa.”

Awo Dawudi n’agamba abakungu be bonna abaali naye e Yerusaalemi nti, “Mugolokoke tudduke kubanga bwe tutaakole bwe tutyo tewaabeewo n’omu ku ffe anaawona Abusaalomu. Tuteekwa okuvaawo amangu nga bwe kisoboka, aleme okutusaangiriza wano okusaanyaawo ekibuga n’ekitala.”

15 Nʼafotufo no buae se, “Yegyina wʼakyi. Biribiara a wugye di sɛ eye no, yɛ.”

Abakungu ba kabaka ne bamuddamu nti, “Abaddu bo beetegefu okukola kyonna, mukama waffe kabaka ky’anaaba asazeewo.”

16 Enti ɔhene no ne ne fifo sii mu kɔɔ prɛko pɛ a wannyaw biribiara wɔ akyi sɛ ne mpenanom du bi a wɔbɛhwɛ nʼahemfi no so.

Awo Kabaka n’asitula n’ennyumba ye yonna ne bamugoberera, naye n’alekawo abakyala be kkumi okulabirira olubiri.

17 Ɔhene no ne ne nkurɔfo no faa fam, na wɔfaa kuropɔn no fa bi,

Kabaka n’abantu bonna abaagenda naye, bwe baatambulako akabanga, ne batuuka mu kifo ekimu ewalako n’olubiri ne bayimirira awo.

18 maa Dawid asraafo no betwaa wɔn ho dii wɔn anim. Nnipa a wɔkaa Dawid ho kɔe no yɛ Gitifo ahansia a wofi Gat a ne bammɔfo nso ka ho.

Abasajja be bonna ne bamukulemberamu, n’Abakeresi bonna n’Abaperesi bonna, n’Abagitti olukaaga bonna abaali bamugoberedde okuva e Gaasi ne bakumba nga bamukulembeddemu.

19 Na ɔhene no bisaa Gatni Itai a ɔyɛ ɔsafohene no se, “Adɛn nti na woka yɛn ho rekɔ? San kɔka wo nkurɔfo ho, na monkɔ ɔhene Absalom nkyɛn, efisɛ woyɛ ɔhɔho wɔ Israel ne ɔmamfrani a wɔatwa wo asu.

Awo kabaka n’agamba Ittayi Omugitti nti, “Lwaki otugoberera? Ddayo obeere ne kabaka Abusaalomu. Oli munnaggwanga eyagobebwa ewaabwe.

20 Wuduu ha nnɛra nko ara. Na ɛsɛ sɛ mehyɛ wo na wo ne yɛn kyin ana? Me mpo, minnim baabi a yɛbɛkɔ. San wʼakyi na kɔfa wo asraafo ka wo ho, na Awurade nkyerɛ wo ne dɔ ne ne nokware.”

Wajja jjuuzi. Lwaki leero nkutambuza eno n’eri, nga ssinamanya gye ndaga? Ddayo n’abantu bo. Ekisa n’emirembe bibeerenga naawe.”

21 Nanso Itai ka kyerɛɛ ɔhene no se, “Mede Awurade din ne wo ara wo nkwa ka ntam se, baabiara a wobɛkɔ no, mɛkɔ bi a nea ebesi biara mfa me ho; sɛ ɛyɛ nkwa anaa owu.”

Naye Ittayi n’addamu kabaka nti, “Mukama nga bw’ali omulamu, era mukama wange kabaka nga bw’ali omulamu, buli mukama wange kabaka gy’anaagendanga, oba bulamu oba kufa, omuddu wo anaabeeranga wamu naawe.”

22 Dawid buaa no se, “Eye, ka yɛn ho.” Ɛno nti, Itai ne ne mmarima ahansia ne wɔn fifo kaa wɔn ho kɔe.

Dawudi n’agamba Ittayi nti, “Kale yitawo ogende mu maaso.” Awo Ittayi Omugitti n’abasajja be bonna n’abantu baabwe abaali naye ne bayitawo.

23 Awerɛhow kɛse sii asase no so, bere a ɔhene ne nʼakyidifo retwa mu no. Wotwaa Kidron Bon no de wɔn ani kyerɛɛ sare so.

Ab’omu byalo bonna ne bakaaba nnyo bwe baalaba abantu nga bayitawo. Kabaka naye n’asomoka akagga Kidulooni, abantu bonna ne bayitawo ne boolekera eddungu.

24 Abiatar ne Sadok ne Lewifo no faa Apam Adaka no, na wɔde sii kwankyɛn. Na wɔbɔɔ afɔre wɔ hɔ kosii sɛ obiara senee.

Zadooki awamu n’Abaleevi bonna abaali awamu naye, abaasitulanga essanduuko ey’endagaano ya Mukama, baagenda ne kabaka. Essanduuko ya Katonda ne bagissa wansi, Abiyasaali naye n’ayambuka okuwaayo ssaddaaka okutuusa abantu bonna bwe baggwa mu kibuga.

25 Na ɔhene no ka kyerɛɛ Sadok se, “San fa Onyankopɔn Adaka no kɔ kuropɔn no mu. Sɛ minya Awurade anim adom a, ɔbɛsan de me aba ama mahu Adaka no ne ne ntamadan no bio.

Awo kabaka n’agamba Zadooki nti, “Zzaayo essanduuko ya Katonda mu kibuga. Bwe ndiraba ekisa mu maaso ga Mukama, alinkomyawo, ne ngirabako n’ekifo Mukama ky’abeeramu.

26 Nanso sɛ ɔka se, ‘Mʼani nnye wo ho’ a mepɛ, ma ɔmfa me mfa ɔkwan a onim sɛ eye ma no no so.”

Naye bw’alisalawo nti, ‘Ssiri musanyufu naawe,’ ndimweteefuteefu ankole nga bw’asiima.”

27 Na ɔhene no ka kyerɛɛ ɔsɔfo Sadok se, “Me nhyehyɛe ni: Wo ne Abiatar nyɛ komm nsan nkɔ kuropɔn no mu a wo babarima Ahimaas ne Yonatan a ɔyɛ Abiatar babarima ka ho.

Ate era kabaka n’agamba Zadooki nti, “Toli mulabi? Ddayo mu kibuga mirembe, ne mutabani wo Akimaazi ne mutabani wa Abiyasaali, Yonasaani. Ggwe ne Abiyasaali muddeeyo ne batabani bammwe.

28 Mɛtwɛn wɔ faako a wotwa Asubɔnten Yordan kɔ sare no so hɔ akosi sɛ mɛte mo nkra. Momma mente asɛm a ebesi wɔ Yerusalem, ansa na makɔ sare so.”

Ndirindirira ekigambo ekiriva gye muli, we tulisomokera okulaga mu ddungu.”

29 Enti Sadok ne Abiatar faa Onyankopɔn Adaka no de san kɔɔ Yerusalem, na wɔtenaa hɔ.

Awo Zadooki ne Abiyasaali ne bazzaayo essanduuko ya Katonda e Yerusaalemi ne basigala eyo.

30 Dawid faa ɔkwan a ɛkɔ Ngo Bepɔw so no so a ɔrekɔ no nyinaa, na ɔretwa adwo. Na wakata ne ti so, na ne nan sisi fam saa ara a ɛkyerɛ awerɛhowdi. Na nnipa a wɔka ne ho no nso katakataa wɔn ti so, twaa adwo bere a wogu so reforo bepɔw no.

Naye Dawudi n’alinnyalinnya n’alaga ku lusozi olw’Emizeeyituuni ng’akaaba, n’omutwe ng’agubisse era ng’ali mu bigere. Abantu bonna abaali awamu naye nabo baali beebisse emitwe era nga bakaaba.

31 Bere a obi ka kyerɛɛ Dawid se, afei de ne fotufo Ahitofel taa Absalom akyi no, Dawid bɔɔ mpae se, “Awurade, ma Ahitofel afotu nnan nkwaseasɛm.”

Dawudi n’ategeezebwa nti, “Akisoferi ali omu ku abo abeekobaana ne Abusaalomu.” Dawudi n’asaba nti, “Ayi Mukama Katonda nkwegayiridde, fuula amagezi ga Akisoferi obusirusiru.”

32 Woduu Ngo Bepɔw no atifi baabi a nnipa som Onyankopɔn no, Dawid huu Husai a ofi Arki a ɔretwɛn no. Na Husai asunsuan nʼatade mu, de dɔte asra ne tirim, de kyerɛ awerɛhowdi.

Awo Dawudi bwe yatuuka ku ntikko y’olusozi, abantu gye baasinzizanga Katonda, Kusaayi Omwaluki yaliyo okumusisinkana, ekkooti ye ng’eyulise n’omutwe gwe nga gujjudde enfuufu.

33 Na Dawid ka kyerɛɛ no se, “Sɛ wo ne me kɔ a, wobɛyɛ adesoa ama me.

Dawudi n’amugamba nti, “Bw’onoogenda nange ojja kunfuukira ekizibu.

34 San kɔ Yerusalem, na ka kyerɛ Absalom se, ‘Afei, mɛyɛ wo fotufo sɛnea da bi hɔ no na meyɛ wʼagya fotufo no.’ Ɛba saa a, wubetumi atia Ahitofel afotu mu, asɛe no.

Naye bw’onoddayo mu kibuga, n’ogamba Abusaalomu nti, ‘Ndibeera omuddu wo, ayi kabaka; nga bwe naweerezanga kitaawo mu biro eby’edda, bwe ntyo bwe nnaakuweerezanga,’ onooba ombedde mu nsonga ey’okulemesa Akisoferi, afuuse omuwi w’amagezi owa Abusaalomu.

35 Asɔfo Sadok ne Abiatar wɔ hɔ. Ka adwene a wɔafa wɔ me ho, pɛ sɛ wɔkyere me no kyerɛ wɔn,

Zadooki ne Abiyasaali tebaliiyo? Kale bategeeze ekigambo kyonna ky’onoowulira mu lubiri.

36 na wɔbɛsoma wɔn mmabarima Ahimaas ne Yonatan na wɔabɛhwehwɛ me, aka nea ɛrekɔ so akyerɛ me.”

Batabani baabwe ababiri, Akimaazi mutabani wa Zadooki ne Yonasaani mutabani wa Abiyasaali nabo bali eyo, era abo boonoontumiranga bwe wanaabangawo ensonga yonna.”

37 Enti Dawid adamfo Husai san kɔɔ Yerusalem, koduu hɔ bere koro a Absalom nso duu hɔ no mu.

Awo Kusaayi mukwano gwa Dawudi n’atuuka e Yerusaalemi, nga Abusaalomu ayingira ekibuga.
