< 2 Samuel 2 >
1 Mmere no ara mu, Dawid bisaa Awurade se, “Mensan nkɔ Yuda ana?” Awurade buaa no se, “Kɔ.” Dawid bisaa no se, “Kurow bɛn na menkɔ so?” Awurade buaa no se, “Hebron.”
Patapita nthawi, Davide anafunsa Yehova kuti, “Kodi ndipite ku umodzi mwa mizinda ya Yuda?” Yehova anayankha kuti, “Pita.” Davide anafunsanso kuti, “Kodi ndipite kuti?” Yehova anayankha kuti, “Ku Hebroni.”
2 Na Dawid yerenom ne Ahinoam a ofi Yesreel ne Abigail a ofi Karmel a na ɔyɛ Nabal yere no. Enti Dawid ne ne yerenom,
Choncho Davide anapita kumeneko ndi akazi ake awiri, Ahinoamu wa ku Yezireeli ndi Abigayeli mkazi wamasiye uja wa Nabala wa ku Karimeli.
3 ne ne mmarima ne wɔn fifo nyinaa tu kɔɔ Yuda, na wɔkɔtenaa Hebron ne ne nkurow so.
Davide anatenganso anthu amene anali nawo aliyense ndi banja lake, ndipo anakakhala ku midzi ya ku Hebroni.
4 Afei, Yuda ntuanofo kɔɔ Hebron, kɔsraa Dawid ngo sii no hene wɔ Yuda abusuakuw so. Na bere a Dawid tee sɛ Yabes Gilead mmarima asie Saulo no,
Kenaka amuna a ku Yuda anabwera ku Hebroni ndipo kumeneko anadzoza Davide kukhala mfumu ya fuko la Yuda. Davide atawuzidwa kuti anthu a ku Yabesi Giliyadi ndi amene anayika mʼmanda Sauli,
5 ɔsomaa abɔfo kosee wɔn se, “Awurade nhyira mo sɛ moayi nokware a ɛte saa adi, ama mo wura Saulo, na moasie no anuonyam so.
iye anatuma amithenga kwa anthu a ku Yabesi Giliyadi kuti akayankhule nawo kuti, “Yehova akudalitseni poonetsa kukoma mtima kwanu kwa Sauli mbuye wanu pomuyika mʼmanda.
6 Na afei, Awurade ne mo nni no yiye na ontua mo dɔ sononko yi so ka. Na me nso metua mo nea a moayɛ yi so ka.
Tsopano Yehova akuonetseni kukoma mtima ndi kukhulupirika kwake ndipo inenso ndidzakukomerani mtima chifukwa munachita zimenezi.
7 Afei a Saulo awu yi, mepɛ sɛ mobɛyɛ mʼasomfo nokwafo sɛ Yudafo a wɔasra me ngo sɛ minni wɔn so hene no.”
Tsopano khalani amphamvu ndi olimba mtima, pakuti Sauli mbuye wanu wafa, ndipo fuko la Yuda landidzoza kukhala mfumu yawo.”
8 Na Ner babarima Abner a na ɔyɛ Saulo safohene wɔ nʼakofo so ne Saulo babarima Is-Boset kɔɔ Mahanaim.
Pa nthawi imeneyi Abineri mwana wa Neri, wolamulira ankhondo a Sauli, anatenga Isi-Boseti mwana wa Sauli ndi kubwera naye ku Mahanaimu.
9 Ɛhɔ na osii Is-Boset hene wɔ Gilead, Yesreel, Efraim, Benyamin, Asurifo asase ne Israel nyinaa so.
Iye anamuyika kuti akhale mfumu yoyangʼanira Giliyadi, Asuri ndi Yezireeli, pamodzi ndi Efereimu, Benjamini ndi Israeli yense.
10 Bere a Is-Boset dii ade no, na wadi mfirihyia aduanan, na odii ade fi Mahanaim mfe abien. Na Yuda abusuakuw no dii Dawid nokware.
Isi-Boseti mwana wa Sauli anali wa zaka makumi anayi pamene anakhala mfumu ya Israeli ndipo analamulira zaka ziwiri. Koma fuko la Yuda linatsatira Davide.
11 Dawid yɛɛ Hebron ne kuropɔn. Na odii Yuda so hene mfirihyia ason ne fa.
Davide anakhala mfumu ku Hebroni akulamulira fuko la Yuda, kwa zaka zisanu ndi chimodzi ndi miyezi isanu ndi umodzi.
12 Da koro bi, Abner dii Is-Boset asraafo anim, fi Mahanaim kɔɔ Gibeon.
Abineri mwana wa Neri, pamodzi ndi ankhondo a Isi-Boseti mwana wa Sauli, anachoka ku Mahanaimu ndi kupita ku Gibiyoni.
13 Saa bere koro no ara mu, Seruia babarima Yoab nso dii Dawid asraafo anim, fi Hebron na wohyiaa Abner wɔ Gibeon ɔtare ho. Akuw abien no tenatenaa ase a na wodi nhwɛanim.
Yowabu mwana wa Zeruya pamodzi ndi ankhondo a Davide anapita ndi kukakumana nawo ku dziwe la ku Gibiyoni. Gulu lina linakhala mbali ina ya dziwelo pamene gulu lina linakhala mbali inayo.
14 Afei, Abner susuw ho kyerɛɛ Yoab se, “Ma yɛmfa yɛn akofo no mu kakra, na wɔmfa wɔn nsa nni ako.” Yoab penee so kae se, “Wɔnsɔre nko ɛ.”
Kenaka Abineri anati kwa Yowabu, “Tiye tibweretse ena mwa anyamata athu kuti amenyane patsogolo pathupa.” Yowabu anayankha, “Chabwino, amenyane.”
15 Enti woyii mmarima dumien fii kuw biara mu sɛ wonni wɔn ho ako.
Kotero anayimirira ndipo anawawerenga: anyamata khumi ndi awiri a fuko la Benjamini ndi Isi-Boseti mwana wa Sauli ndiponso anyamata khumi ndi awiri a Davide.
16 Obiara soo ne tamfo tinwi mu, de nʼafoa wowɔɔ wɔn ho wɔn ho, maa wɔn nyinaa wuwui. Enti wɔfrɛ atɔe mu hɔ se Afoa Afuw de besi nnɛ.
Tsono aliyense anagwira mutu wa mnzake namubaya mnzakeyo mʼnthiti ndi mpeni ndipo onse anagwera pansi limodzi. Kotero malo amenewo ku Gibiyoni amatchedwa Helikati Hazurimu.
17 Afei, nsraadɔm abien no de ɔko hyehyɛɛ so, na saa da no baa awiei no, na Dawid nsraadɔm no adi Abner ne Israel so nkonim.
Tsiku limeneli nkhondo yake inali yoopsa kwambiri, ndipo Abineri ndi ankhondo a Israeli anagonjetsedwa ndi ankhondo a Davide.
18 Na Yoab, Abisai ne Asahel a wɔyɛ Seruia mmabarima baasa no ka Dawid asraafo no ho saa da no. Na Asahel tu mmirika te sɛ ɔforote,
Ana atatu aamuna a Zeruya, Yowabu, Abisai ndi Asaheli anali komweko. Koma Asaheli anali waliwiro ngati insa.
19 na ɔpam Abner ara sɛ ɔbɛkyere no.
Iye anathamangitsa Abineri ndipo sanakhotere kumanja kapena kumanzere pamene amamutsatira.
20 Bere a Abner twaa nʼani huu sɛ odi nʼakyi no, ɔteɛɛ mu se, “Wo ni, Asahel!” Obuae se, “Yiw, ɛyɛ me!”
Abineri anayangʼana mʼmbuyo ndipo anafunsa, “Kodi ndiwe Asaheli?” Iye anayankha kuti, “Ndine.”
21 Na Abner ka kyerɛɛ no se, “Ɛno de, kɔhwehwɛ obi foforo, na wone no nko. Kɔ na kotintim mmerante no baako, na gye nʼakode a ɛwɔ ne ho nyinaa.” Nanso Asahel, kɔɔ so taa no.
Ndipo Abineri anati kwa iye, “Khotera kumanja kapena kumanzere: tsatira mmodzi mwa anyamatawa ndipo umulande zida zake.” Koma Asaheli sanasiye kumuthamangitsa.
22 Bio, Abner teɛɛ mu ka kyerɛɛ Asahel se, “Fi ha kɔ! Sɛ mikum wo a, merentumi nhwɛ wo nuabarima Yoab anim.”
Abineri anamuchenjezanso Asaheli, “Siya kuthamangitsa ine! Kodi ndikukanthe chifukwa chiyani? Kodi ndikaonana naye bwanji mʼbale wako Yowabu?”
23 Nanso Asahel antie ara, enti Abner de ne peaw no wɔɔ ne yafunu mu, maa peaw no pue fii nʼakyi. Obu hwee fam wuu wɔ hɔ. Na obiara a oduu atɔe mu hɔ no gyinaa dinn hwɛɛ Asahel sɛ ɔda hɔ.
Koma iye anakana kuleka kumuthamangitsa. Choncho Abineri anabaya Asaheli mʼmimba ndi msonga ya mkondo wake ndipo mkondowo unatulukira mbali ina. Iye anagwa ndi kufera pamalo pomwepo. Ndipo munthu aliyense amayima akafika pamalo pamene anagwera ndi kufa.
24 Bere a Yoab ne Abisai tee asɛm a asi no, wɔkɔɔ sɛ wɔrekɔhwehwɛ Abner. Bere a woduu Amma bepɔw a ɛbɛn Gia a ɛwɔ ɔkwan a ɛda hɔ kɔ Gibeon sare so no, na onwini adwo.
Koma Yowabu ndi Abisai anathamangitsa Abineri, ndipo dzuwa likulowa, anafika ku phiri la Ama, pafupi ndi Giya pa njira yopita ku chipululu cha ku Gibiyoni.
25 Abner asraafo a wofi Benyamin abusuakuw mu no boaa wɔn ho ano wɔ bepɔw no so yɛɛ krado maa ɔko.
Pamenepo anthu a fuko la Benjamini anasonkhana kudzathandiza Abineri. Iwo anapanga gulu ndipo anayima pamwamba pa phiri.
26 Ɛhɔ na Abner teɛɛ mu, ka kyerɛɛ Yoab se, “Enti, ɛsɛ sɛ daa yɛfa afoa so de ka yɛn ntam asɛm ana? Munnhu sɛ, saa ɔkwan no de nitan bɛto yɛn ntam ana? Da bɛn na wobɛfrɛ wo mmarima no aka akyerɛ wɔn se, wonnyae wɔn nuanom Israelfo akyidi?”
Abineri anayitana Yowabu, “Kodi tipitirize kumenyana mpaka kalekale? Kodi sukuzindikira kuti mathero ake kudzakhala kuwawidwa mitima? Kodi udzawaletsa liti ankhondo ako kuthamangitsa abale awo?”
27 Na Yoab kae se, “Sɛ woankasa a anka, Onyankopɔn nko ara na onim nea ɛbɛba; anka yɛbɛtaa wo anadwo mu no nyinaa.”
Yowabu anayankha kuti, “Pali Yehova wamoyo, ukanapanda kuyankhula, ankhondo anga akanapitiriza kuthamangitsa abale awo mpaka mmawa.”
28 Enti Yoab hyɛn ne torobɛnto, maa ne mmarima no gyaee Israel asraafo no taa.
Chomwecho Yowabu analiza lipenga, ndipo ankhondo onse anayima. Iwo analeka kuthamangitsa Aisraeli kapena kumenyana nawo.
29 Anadwo mu no nyinaa, Abner ne ne mmarima nantew kɔɔ Araba. Wotwaa Yordan bon, toaa so kɔɔ Bitron, beduu Mahanaim.
Usiku wonsewo Abineri ndi ankhondo ake anayenda kudutsa Araba. Iwo anawoloka Yorodani, napitirira mpaka kudutsa dera lonse la Bitironi ndipo anafika ku Mahanaimu.
30 Na Yoab gyaee Abner akyidi, na ɔboaboaa ne mmarima ano. Asahel akyi no, wohuu sɛ Dawid mmarima no mu dunkron ayera.
Choncho Yowabu anabwerera kuchokera kothamangitsa Abineri ndipo anasonkhanitsa ankhondo ake onse. Kupatula Asaheli, panali ankhondo khumi ndi anayi a Davide amene anasowa.
31 Nanso na Dawid mmarima no akunkum Benyaminfo no mu nnipa ahansia ne aduosia a na wɔka Abner ho no.
Koma ankhondo a Davide anapha ankhondo a fuko la Benjamini 360 amene anali ndi Abineri.
32 Wɔfaa Asahel siee no wɔ nʼagya ɔboda mu wɔ Betlehem. Na Yoab ne ne mmarima nantew anadwo mu no nyinaa koduu Hebron adekyee.
Iwo anatenga Asaheli ndi kukamuyika mʼmanda a abambo ake ku Betelehemu. Ndipo Yowabu ndi ankhondo ake anayenda usiku wonse ndi kufika ku Hebroni kukucha.
