1 Akyiri no, Dawid dii Filistifo no so, brɛɛ wɔn ase. Ɔko gyee Gat a ɛyɛ wɔn kuropɔn kɛse no.
Ngokuqhubeka kwesikhathi uDavida wawehlula amaFilistiya wawanqoba, wathumba iMethegi Ama eyayiphethwe ngamaFilistiya.
2 Dawid san dii Moabfo so. Ɔmaa nnipa no dedaa fam, na ɔde hama susuw wɔn. Osusuw hama no abien a, na wakyerɛ sɛ wonkum saa nnipa no. Ɛnna osusuw hama no baako a, na wakyerɛ sɛ wonnyaa saa nkurɔfo no. Enti Moabfo a wonyaa wɔn ti didii mu no bɛyɛɛ Dawid asomfo a na afe biara woyi tow brɛ no.
UDavida njalo wehlula amaMowabi. Wawalalisa phansi emhlabathini wawalinganisa ngobude bentambo. Zonke izilinganiso ezimbili zawo zabulawa, kwathi isilinganiso sesithathu sayekelwa siphila. Ngakho amaMowabi abuswa nguDavida athela imithelo kuye.
3 Dawid sɛe Rehob babarima Hadadeser a na odi hene wɔ Soba no akofo, bere a Hadadeser kɔɔ Asubɔnten Eufrate ho, pɛe sɛ ɔkɔhyɛ ne nniso mu den no.
UDavida wabuya wahlasela wanqoba uHadadezeri indodana kaRehobhi, inkosi yaseZobha, lapho aya khona ukuyavuselela umbuso wakhe ngaseMfuleni iYufrathe.
4 Dawid kyeree ne nteaseɛnam apem, nteaseɛnamkafo mpem ason ne asraafo a wɔnam mpem aduonu. Dawid twitwaa nteaseɛnam apɔnkɔ no nyinaa nantin ntin, na ogyaw mu ɔha pɛ.
UDavida wathumba izinqola zakhe zokulwa eziyinkulungwane, labatshayeli bazo abazinkulungwane eziyisikhombisa, lezinkulungwane ezingamatshumi amabili zamabutho ahamba ngenyawo. Waquma imisipha yamabhiza wonke adonsa izinqola zokulwa ngaphandle kwalikhulu.
5 Bere a Aramfo a wofi Damasko baa sɛ wɔrebɛboa Sobahene Hadadeser no, Dawid kum wɔn mu mpem aduonu.
Kwathi ama-Aramu aseDamaseko efika ukuzoncedisa uHadadezeri inkosi yaseZobha, uDavida wabulala azinkulungwane ezingamatshumi amabili lambili zawo.
6 Na ɔde asraafo a wɔyɛ bansifo kɔtenaa Damasko, maa Aramfo bɛyɛɛ Dawid nkurɔfo a na woyi tow brɛ no. Baabiara a Dawid bɛkɔ no, Awurade ma no di nkonim.
Wabeka inkamba zamabutho okulinda elizweni lama-Aramu eDamaseko, kwathi ama-Aramu aba ngaphansi kombuso wakhe aletha imithelo. UThixo wamnika ukunqoba uDavida loba kungaphi lapho aya khona.
7 Dawid de Hadadeser asraafo mpanyimfo sikakɔkɔɔ nkatabo no baa Yerusalem.
UDavida wathatha amahawu egolide eziphathamandla zikaHadadezeri wawasa eJerusalema.
8 Ɔde Beta ne Berotai a na ɛyɛ Hadadeser nkurow no mu kɔbere bebree kaa ne ho kɔe.
Kusukela eThebha kanye laseBherothayi, imizi eyayingekaHadadezeri, inkosi uDavida yathatha khona ithusi elinengi kakhulu.
9 Bere a Hamathene Toi tee sɛ Dawid atɔre Hadadeser asraafo no ase pasaa no,
Lapho uTowu inkosi yaseHamathi isizwe ukuthi uDavida wayelehlule lonke ibutho likaHadadezeri,
10 ɔsomaa ne babarima Yoram kɔɔ Dawid nkyɛn, kokyiaa no maa no mo. Na Hadadeser ne Toi yɛ atamfo fi teteete a wɔako atia wɔn ho wɔn ho mpɛn pii. Yoram kɔkyɛɛ Dawid nneɛma bebree a ɛyɛ, dwetɛ, sikakɔkɔɔ ne kɔbere mfrafrae.
wathumela indodana yakhe uJoramu enkosini uDavida ukuyambingelela lokuyamenzela amhlophe ngokunqoba kwakhe uHadadezeri empini, owayesilwa impi loTowu. UJoramu wamlethela izitsha zesiliva lezegolide kanye lezethusi.
11 Ɔhene Dawid too akyɛde no nyinaa din de maa Awurade a, dwetɛ ne sikakɔkɔɔ a onya fii aman bi a odii wɔn so no nyinaa ka ho.
Inkosi uDavida yazahlukanisela uThixo lezo zinto njengalokhu ayekwenze ngesiliva legolide okwavela kuzozonke izizwe ayezehlule:
12 Saa aman no ne Edom, Moab, Amon, Filistia, Amalek ne nea efi Sobahene Rehob babarima Hadadeser nkyɛn nso.
I-Edomi leMowabi, ama-Amoni lamaFilistiya kanye lama-Amaleki. Wanikela lempango eyathathwa kuHadadezeri indodana kaRehobhi, inkosi yaseZobha.
13 Eyi maa Dawid gyee din. Ɔsan nʼakyi kɔe no, okunkum Edomfo mpem dunwɔtwe wɔ Nkyene Bon mu.
UDavida waba lodumo emva kokubuya kwakhe evela kulwa lama-Edomi azinkulungwane ezilitshumi lasificaminwembili eSigodini seTswayi.
14 Ɔde asraafo bansifo tuatuaa Edom nyinaa ano. Na Edomfo nyinaa bɛyɛɛ Dawid nkoa. Eyi yɛ nhwɛso foforo a ɛkyerɛɛ nkonim a Awurade maa Dawid dii wɔ baabiara a ɔkɔe no.
Wabeka inkamba zamabutho okulinda kulolonke elase-Edomi, njalo wonke ama-Edomi abuswa nguDavida. UThixo wamnika ukunqoba uDavida loba kungaphi lapho aya khona.
15 Dawid dii Israel nyinaa so hene, a wanhyɛ obiara so na wansisi obiara nso.
UDavida wabusa kulolonke elako-Israyeli, esenza okuqondileyo lokulungele abantu bakhe bonke.
16 Seruia babarima Yoab na na ɔyɛ ɔsafohene. Ahilud babarima Yehosafat na na ɔyɛ adehye abakɔsɛmkyerɛwni.
