2 Samuel 19

1 Ankyɛ na nkra duu Yoab nkyɛn se ɔhene no resu, redi awerɛhow wɔ Absalom ho.

Pea naʻe fakahā kia Soape, “Vakai, ʻoku tangi mo mamahi ʻae tuʻi koeʻuhi ko ʻApisalomi.”

2 Bere a asraafo no tee ɔhene no awerɛhow a ɔredi wɔ ne ba no ho no, nkonimdi mu anigye a na wɔwɔ mu saa da no dan awerɛhow.

Pea ko e fakamoʻui ʻoe ʻaho ko ia naʻe liliu ia ko e fakamamahi ki he kakai kotoa pē: he naʻe fanongo ʻe he kakai ʻi he ʻaho ko ia ki he mamahi ʻoe tuʻi koeʻuhi ko hono ʻalo.

3 Wowiaa wɔn ho kɔɔ kurow no mu sɛnea wɔn a wɔadi nkogu de aniwu guan fi ɔko mu.

Pea ʻi he ʻaho ko ia naʻe ʻalu fakatoitoi pe ʻae kakai ki he kolo, ʻo hangē ko e ʻalu fakatoitoi ha kakai ʻi [heʻenau ]mā ʻoka nau ka feholataki ʻi he tau.

4 Ɔhene de ne nsa kataa nʼanim, kɔɔ so twaa adwo se, “Ao, me ba Absalom! Ao, Absalom, me ba, me ba!”

Ka naʻe ʻufiʻufi ʻe he tuʻi ʻa hono fofonga, pea naʻe tangi ʻaki ʻe he tuʻi ʻae leʻo lahi, ʻOiauē, ʻa hoku foha ko ʻApisalomi, “ʻOiauē ʻApisalomi, ko hoku ʻalo, ko hoku ʻalo!”

5 Na Yoab kɔɔ ɔhene no dan mu kɔka kyerɛɛ no se, “Nnɛ yɛagye wo, ne wo mmabarima, ne wo mmabea, ne wo yerenom, ne wo mpenanom nkwa. Nanso woreyɛ eyi de gu yɛn anim ase te sɛ nea yɛayɛ bɔne bi.

Pea naʻe hau ʻa Soape ki loto fale ki he tuʻi, ʻo ne pehē, “Kuo ke fakamaaʻi he ʻaho ni ʻae mata kotoa pē ʻo hoʻo kau tamaioʻeiki, ʻaia kuo fakahaofi ʻa hoʻo moʻui he ʻaho ni, mo e moʻui ʻa hoʻo ngaahi foha mo hoʻo ngaahi ʻofefine, mo e moʻui ʻa hoʻo ngaahi uaifi, mo e moʻui ʻa hoʻo kau sinifu;

6 Wodɔ wʼatamfo, na wotan wʼadɔfo. Woada no adi nnɛ sɛ, yɛnsɛ hwee mma wo. Sɛ Absalom te ase, na yɛn nyinaa awuwu a, anka wopɛ no saa.

Ko e meʻa ʻi hoʻo ʻofa ki ho ngaahi fili, ka kuo ke fehiʻa ki ho kāinga. He kuo ke fakahā he ʻaho ni ʻoku ʻikai mahuʻinga kiate koe ʻae houʻeiki pe ko e kau tamaioʻeiki: he ʻoku ou mamata he ʻaho ni, ka ne moʻui pe ʻa ʻApisalomi, ke mau mate kotoa pē ʻakimautolu he ʻaho ni, pehē kuo ke lelei ai.

7 Afei, fi kɔ mprempren, na kɔma asraafo no mo, na mebɔ Awurade din, ka ntam se, sɛ woanyɛ saa a, wɔn mu baako koraa nka ha anadwo yi. Na ɛbɛma woagyigya asen kan no.”

Ko ia foki, tuʻu hake, pea ʻalu atu, pea lea fakafiemālie ki he loto ʻo hoʻo kau tamaioʻeiki: he ʻoku ou fuakava ʻia Sihova kiate koe, kapau ʻe ʻikai te ke ʻalu atu, ʻe ʻikai toe kiate koe ha tokotaha ʻi he poōni: pea ʻe kovi lahi hake ia ʻi he kovi kotoa pē kuo hoko mai kiate koe talu mei hoʻo kei siʻi ʻo aʻu ki he ʻaho ni.”

8 Na ɔhene no fii adi kɔtenaa kurow no abɔntenpon no ano. Na asɛm no trɛw kurow no mu nyinaa sɛ ɔwɔ hɔ no, obiara kɔɔ ne nkyɛn. Saa bere no na Israelfo a wɔtaa Absalom akyi no nyinaa aguan kɔ wɔn afi mu.

Pea naʻe toki tuʻu hake ai ʻae tuʻi, ʻo ne ʻafio ʻi he matapā. Pea naʻa nau fakahā ki he kakai kotoa pē, ʻo pehē, “Vakai, kuo ʻafio ʻae tuʻi ʻi he matapā.” Pea naʻe haʻu ʻae kakai kotoa pē ki he ʻao ʻoe tuʻi: he kuo hola ʻae kau tangata kotoa pē ʻo ʻIsileli taki taha ki hono fale fehikitaki.

9 Na Israel mmusuakuw no nyinaa mu, na wɔredi abooboo, gye akyinnye. Na nnipa no reka se, “Ɔhene no gyee yɛn fii atamfo a wɔyɛ Filistifo nsam, nanso Absalom taa no, pam no fii ɔman no mu.

Pea naʻe fekeʻikeʻi ʻae kakai kotoa pē ʻi he ngaahi faʻahinga ʻo ʻIsileli kotoa pē, ʻo fepehēʻaki, “Naʻe fakamoʻui ʻakitautolu ʻe he tuʻi mei he nima ʻo hotau ngaahi fili, pea naʻa ne fakahaofi ʻakitautolu mei he nima ʻoe kau Filisitia; pea kuo ne hola eni mei he fonua koeʻuhi ko ʻApisalomi.”

10 Na mprempren Absalom a wɔsraa no sɛ ommedi yɛn so hene no nso awu. Momma yɛnkɔka nkyerɛ Dawid na ɔnsan mmra mmedi yɛn so.”

Pea ko ʻApisalomi ʻaia naʻa tau fakanofo kiate kitautolu, kuo mate ʻi he tau. Pea ko ia foki ko e hā ʻoku mou taʻelea ai ke toe ʻomi ʻae tuʻi?

11 Na ɔhene Dawid somaa asɔfo Sadok ne Abiatar, ma wokobisaa Yuda mpanyimfo se, “Adɛn nti na mo de, mompɛ sɛ mode ɔhene ahenni bɛsan ama no? Na mate sɛ Israel nyinaa ayɛ krado, na mo nko ara na motwentwɛn mo anan ase.

Pea naʻe fekau ʻe he tuʻi ko Tevita kia Satoki mo ʻApiata ko e ongo taulaʻeiki, ʻo ne pehē, “Mo lea ki he mātuʻa ʻo Siuta, ʻo pehē, Ko e hā ʻoku mou tomui ai ʻi he toe ʻomi ʻae tuʻi ki hono fale? Ka kuo hā mai ʻae lea ʻa ʻIsileli kotoa pē ki he tuʻi ki hono fale.

12 Moyɛ mʼabusuafo, mʼabusuakuw, mʼankasa me honam ne me mogya. Na ɛno nti, adɛn nti na mutwa to wɔ wɔn a wɔpene sɛ mɛsan aba no mu?”

Ko hoku kāinga kimoutolu, ko hoku hui mo hoku kakano kimoutolu: ko ia ko e hā ʻoku mou tomui ai ʻi he toe ʻomi ʻae tuʻi?”

13 Dawid ma wɔkɔka kyerɛɛ Amasa se, “Sɛ woyɛ me wɔfaase yi, sɛ manyɛ wo ɔsahene ansi Yoab anan mu a, Onyankopɔn ne me nni no nwenweenwen.”

Pea mo pehē atu kia ʻAmasa, “ʻIkai ʻoku ke ʻo hoku hui, pea ʻo hoku kakano? Ke fai pehē ʻe he ʻOtua kiate au ʻo lahi hake foki, ʻo kapau ʻe ʻikai te ke ʻeiki koe ki he kautau ʻi hoku ʻao maʻuaipē, ko e fetongi ʻo Soape.”

14 Afei, Amasa bɔɔ Yuda ntuanofo no nyinaa adafa, ma wotiee no sɛ nnipa koro. Wɔde saa asɛm yi kɔtoo ɔhene anim se, “Wo ne wɔn a wɔne wo wɔ hɔ no nyinaa mmra yɛn nkyɛn.”

Pea naʻa ne ueʻi ʻae loto ʻoe kakai kotoa pē ʻo Siuta, ʻo hangē kuo[nau ]taha pe; ko ia ne nau ʻave ai ʻae lea ni ki he tuʻi, Ke ke foki mai koe, pea mo hoʻo kau tamaioʻeiki kotoa pē.

15 Na ɔhene no de nʼani kyerɛɛ Yerusalem. Oduu Asubɔnten Yordan ho no, Yudafo behyiaa no sɛ wɔde no retwa asu no.

Ko ia naʻe foki mai ʻae tuʻi, ʻo ne haʻu ki Sioatani. Pea naʻe haʻu ʻakinautolu ʻo Siuta ki Kilikali, ke fakafetaulaki atu ki he tuʻi, pea ke ʻomi ʻae tuʻi ki he kauvai ʻe taha ʻo Sioatani.

16 Gera a ɔyɛ Benyaminni a ofi Bahurim babarima Simei ne Yuda mmarima yɛɛ ntɛm kohyiaa ɔhene Dawid.

Pea ko Simi ko e foha ʻo Kela, ko e tangata Penisimani, ʻaia naʻe ʻo Pahulimi, naʻa ne ʻalu fakatoʻotoʻo hifo mo e kau tangata ʻo Siuta, ke fetaulaki mo e tuʻi ko Tevita.

17 Ɔrekɔ no, na Benyaminfo apem ka ne ho, a na Siba a na ɔyɛ Saulo fi mu soodoni ne ne mmabarima dunum ne nʼasomfo aduonu ka ho. Wɔyɛɛ ntɛm dii ɔhene no kan koduu Yordan hɔ.

Pea naʻe ʻalu mo ia ʻae kau tangata Penisimani ʻe toko taha afe, pea mo Sipa ko e tamaioʻeiki mei he fale ʻo Saula, pea mo hono foha ʻoʻona ʻe toko hongofulu ma toko nima, pea mo ʻene kau tamaioʻeiki ʻe toko uofulu; pea naʻa nau muʻomuʻa atu ʻi he tuʻi ʻi heʻene aʻa ʻi Sioatani.

18 Wotwa kɔɔ baabi a ɛhɔ nnɔ kɔfaa ɔhene fifo no de wɔn twaa asu no, na wɔyɛɛ nea wɔpɛ biara maa wɔn. Bere a Gera ba Simei twaa asu no, kɔkotow ɔhene no,

Pea naʻe ʻalu foki ʻae vaka fokotuʻu ke fetukutuku ai ʻae kaungāʻapi ʻoe tuʻi, pea ke fai ha meʻa naʻe pehē ʻe ia ke fai. Pea naʻe tō hifo ʻa Simi ko e foha ʻo Kela ʻi he ʻao ʻoe tuʻi ʻi heʻene laka mai mei Sioatani;

19 srɛɛ no se, “Me wura ɔhene, fa me bɔne kyɛ me. Nkae bɔne a wʼakoa yɛe bere a wufii Yerusalem no Ɔhene yi fi wʼadwene mu.

‌ʻo ne pehē ki he tuʻi, “ʻOua naʻa tuku ha hia kiate au ʻe hoku ʻeiki, pea ʻoua foki naʻa ke manatuʻi ʻae meʻa naʻe fai angatuʻu ai ʻe hoʻo tamaioʻeiki ʻi he ʻaho ko ia naʻe ʻalu atu ai ʻa hoku ʻeiki ko e tuʻi mei Selūsalema, ke mamahi ai ʻae loto ʻoe tuʻi.

20 Mahu bɔne a mayɛ, enti na madi kan wɔ Yosef abusua nyinaa mu rebekyia wo yi.”

He ʻoku ʻiloʻi ʻe hoʻo tamaioʻeiki kuo u fai angahala: pea ko ia foki kuo u haʻu ke u muʻomuʻa mai he ʻaho ni ʻi he fale kotoa pē ʻo Siosefa ke u hoko mai ke fakafetaulaki ki hoku ʻeiki ko e tuʻi.”

21 Na Seruia babarima Abisai kae se, “Simei sɛ owu, efisɛ ɔdomee nea Awurade asra no no.”

Ka naʻe pehēange ʻe ʻApisai ko e tama ʻa Seluia, “ʻIkai ʻe tāmateʻi ʻa Simi koeʻuhi ko e meʻa ni, koeʻuhi ko ʻene lea kapekape kiate ia kuo pani ʻaki ʻae lolo ʻe Sihova?”

22 Na Dawid bisae se, “Mo Seruia mma, dɛn na me ne mo wɔ yɛ? Nnɛ nyɛ da a wokum obi. Ɛyɛ anigye da! Masan mabedi hene wɔ Israel so bio!”

Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Tevita, “Ko e hā kimoutolu kiate au, ʻakimoutolu ʻae ngaahi tama ʻo Seluia, ke mou hoko ai ko e ngaahi fili kiate au he ʻaho ni? He ʻe tāmateʻi ha tokotaha ʻi ʻIsileli ʻi he ʻaho ni? He ʻoku ʻikai te u ʻilo koā kuo u tuʻi au he ʻaho ni ki ʻIsileli?”

23 Enti ɔhene no kaa ntam kyerɛɛ Simei se, “Wɔrenkum wo.”

Ko ia naʻe pehē ai ʻe he tuʻi kia Simi, “ʻE ʻikai te ke mate. Pea naʻe fuakava ʻe he tuʻi kiate ia.”

24 Mefiboset a ɔyɛ Saulo nena nso kohyiaa ɔhene no bi. Efi bere a ɔhene kɔe no, na onsiesiee ne nan ase, nyii ne hweneanonwi, nhoroo ne ntade da, kosii sɛ ɔhene san baa asomdwoe mu no.

Pea naʻe ʻalu hifo ʻa Mifiposeti ko e foha ʻo Saula ke fetaulaki mo e tuʻi, pea naʻe ʻikai ke kaukau hono vaʻe, pe teuteuʻi hono kava, pe fō hono ngaahi kofu, talu mei he ʻaho ko ia naʻe ʻalu atu ai ʻae tuʻi, ʻo aʻu ki he ʻaho naʻa ne toe haʻu ai ʻi he melino.

25 Ɔhene no bisaa no se, “Mefiboset, adɛn nti na wo ne me ankɔ?”

Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻi heʻene hoko mai ki Selūsalema, ke fetaulaki mo e tuʻi, naʻe pehē ʻe he tuʻi kiate ia, “ʻE Mifiposeti, ko e hā naʻe ʻikai te ta ō ai mo au?”

Pea naʻe pehēange ʻe ia, “ʻE hoku ʻeiki, ko e tuʻi, naʻe kākaaʻi au ʻe hoku tamaioʻeiki: he naʻe pehē ʻe hoʻo tamaioʻeiki, ‘Te u ʻai ha hekaʻanga ki he ʻasi, koeʻuhi ke u heka ai ʻo ʻalu ki he tuʻi; koeʻuhi ʻoku ketu ʻa hoʻo tamaioʻeiki.’

31 Gileadni Barsilai nso fi Rogelim baa sɛ ɔrebɛboa ama ɔhene atwa Yordan.

32 Na Barsilai abɔ akwakoraa a wadi mfe aduɔwɔtwe, na ɔyɛ ɔdefo kɛse. Ɔno na ɔmaa ɔhene biribi dii bere a na ɔte Mahanaim no.

Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he tuʻi kia Pasilai, Haʻu koe ke ta aʻa atu mo au, pea te u fafangaʻi koe mo au ʻi Selūsalema.

39 Enti nnipa no nyinaa ne ɔhene twaa Yordan, ɔhene no yɛɛ Barsilai atuu, hyiraa no. Na Barsilai san kɔɔ ne kurom.
