2 “Merekɔ baabi a ɛsɛ sɛ da bi ɔteasefoɔ biara kɔ, enti yɛ den na kyerɛ wo mmaninyɛ,
“Nze ŋŋenda bonna ab’omu nsi gye bagenda, kale beera n’amaanyi era n’obuvumu,

era tambuliranga mu makubo ga Mukama Katonda wo ng’okwatanga ebiragiro bye, era okwatenga amateeka ge, n’ebiragiro bye n’ebyo by’ayagala, nga bwe byawandiikibwa mu mateeka ga Musa, olyoke obeerenga n’omukisa mu byonna by’onookolanga na buli gy’onoogendanga yonna.
4 Sɛ woyɛ yei a na Awurade bɛdi ne bɔ a ɔhyɛɛ me no so sɛ, ‘Sɛ wʼasefoɔ hwɛ wɔn asetena, na wɔfiri wɔn akoma ne wɔn kra nyinaa mu nante nokorɛ mu wɔ mʼanim a, wɔn mu baako bɛtena Israel ahennwa no so.’
Mukama anyweze ekisuubizo kye gye ndi nti, ‘Abaana bo bwe baneegenderezanga mu kkubo lyabwe, era bwe banaatambuliranga mu maaso gange mu mazima n’omutima gwabwe gwonna n’emmeeme yaabwe yonna, tewalibaawo muntu ku ntebe ey’obwakabaka bwa Isirayiri atali wa mu zzadde lyo.’
5 “Wonim sɛ Seruia babarima Yoab kumm mʼakodɔm asahene baanu no a ɛyɛ Ner babarima Abner ne Yeter babarima Amasa no. Ɔkunkumm wɔn, hwiee wɔn mogya guiɛ asomdwoeɛ berɛ mu a ɛnyɛ ɔko berɛ mu, na ɔde wɔn mogya kekaa nʼabɔwomu a ɛbɔ nʼasene mu ne ne mpaboa a ɛhyɛ ne nan so.
“Ate ojjukiranga Yowaabu mutabani wa Zeruyiya kye yankola, bwe yatta abakulu ababiri ab’eggye lya Isirayiri, Abuneeri mutabani wa Neeri ne Amasa mutabani wa Yeseri n’ayiwa omusaayi gwabwe mu biseera eby’emirembe ng’eyali mu lutalo, era omusaayi gwabwe ne gumansukira olukoba lwe olwali mu kiwato n’engatto ze ezaali mu bigere bye.
Kale muyise ng’okutegeera kwo bwe kuli, so tomuganyanga kukka emagombe mirembe mu bukadde bwe. (Sheol h7585)
7 “Na yɛ Barsilai a ɔfiri Gilead no mmammarima adɔeɛ, na ma wɔnka wɔn a wɔdidi wɔ wo didipono so no ho. Ɛberɛ a medwane firii wo nuabarima Absalom ho no, wɔyɛɛ me adɔeɛ.
“Naye batabani ba Baluzirayi Omugireyaadi obakoleranga ebyekisa, era babenga ku abo abanaatuulanga ku mmeeza yo, kubanga baali wamu nange bwe nadduka Abusaalomu muganda wo.
8 “Kae Gera Benyaminni a ɔfiri Bahurim no babarima Simei. Ɔdomee me dendeenden, da a meredwane akɔ Mahanaim no. Na ɔbɛhyiaa me wɔ Yordan no, mede Awurade edin kaa ntam sɛ, Merenkum no.
“Era jjukira Simeeyi mutabani wa Gera Omubenyamini ow’e Bakulimu ali naawe, kubanga yankolimira mu ngeri enzibu ennyo, ku lunaku lwe nagenderako e Makanayimu. Kyokka bwe yaserengeta okunsisinkana ku Yoludaani ne mulayirira Mukama nti, ‘Sijja kukutta na kitala.’
9 Nanso, ntam no mma ɔnni bem. Woyɛ ɔnyansafoɔ na wobɛhunu ɛkwan a wobɛfa so aka ne mogya agu.” (Sheol h7585)
Kaakano tomubala ng’ataliiko musango. Oli musajja w’amagezi, era olimanya ekirikugwanira okumukola; tomuganyanga okukka emagombe mu mirembe mu bukadde bwe.” (Sheol h7585)
10 Na Dawid wuiɛ, na wɔsiee no wɔ Dawid kurom.
Awo Dawudi ne yeebakira wamu ne bajjajjaabe, n’aziikibwa mu kibuga kya Dawudi.
11 Ɔdii ɔhene wɔ Israel mfeɛ aduanan a ne nkyerɛmu ne sɛ, ɔdii Hebron so mfeɛ nson ɛnna Yerusalem nso, ɔdii adeɛ mfeɛ aduasa mmiɛnsa.
Yafugira Isirayiri yonna emyaka amakumi ana, ng’afugira emyaka musanvu e Kebbulooni, n’emyaka amakumi asatu mu esatu e Yerusaalemi.
12 Enti, Salomo tenaa nʼagya Dawid ahennwa so, na nʼadedie ase timiiɛ yie.
Awo Sulemaani n’atuula ku ntebe ey’obwakabaka bwa Dawudi kitaawe, obwakabaka bwe ne bunywezebwa nnyo.
13 Na Hagit babarima Adoniya kɔɔ Salomo ne maame Batseba nkyɛn. Batseba bisaa no sɛ, “Wobaa no asomdwoeɛ so anaa?” Ɔbuaa no sɛ, “Ɛyɛ asomdwoeɛ so.”
Adoniya omwana wa Kaggisi, n’alaga eri Basuseba nnyina Sulemaani. Basuseba n’amubuuza nti, “Ojja mirembe?” N’addamu nti, “Weewaawo mirembe.”
14 Na ɔka kaa ho sɛ, “Mepɛ sɛ woyɛ me adɔeɛ bi.” Na Batseba bisaa sɛ, “Adɔeɛ bɛn.”
N’ayogera nate nti, “Nnina kye njagala okukubuulira.” Basuseba n’amuddamu nti, “Kimbuulire.”
15 Adoniya kaa sɛ, “Sɛdeɛ wonim no, na ahemman no yɛ me dea. Na Israel nyinaa hwɛ me kwan sɛ wɔn ɔhene. Nanso, nneɛma sesaeɛ, na ahemman no kɔɔ me nuabarima nkyɛn, ɛfiri sɛ, Awurade pɛ no saa.
Adoniya n’amugamba nti, “Nga bw’omanyi, obwakabaka bwali bwange, era ne Isirayiri yenna baatunuulira nze nga kabaka waabwe. Naye ebintu byakyuka, era n’obwakabaka bugenze eri muganda wange, kubanga bumuweereddwa Mukama.
16 Seesei, adeɛ baako na mepɛ sɛ mebisa wo. Mfa nkame me.” Ɔkaa sɛ, “Wotumi bisa me.”
Kaakano nkusaba ekigambo kimu, era tokinnyima.” Basuseba n’amugamba nti, “Kyogere.”
17 Na ɔtoaa so sɛ, “Kɔbisa ɔhene Salomo ma me, na ɔremfa dekodeɛ no nkame wo. Bisa no na ɔmfa Abisag Sunamni no mma me sɛ me yere.”
Adoniya n’ayogera nti, “Nkwegayiridde gamba Sulemaani kabaka ampe Abisaagi Omusunammu okuba mukyala wange, kubanga kabaka anaakuwuliriza.”
18 Na Batseba buaa sɛ, “Ɛyɛ, mɛka ho asɛm akyerɛ ɔhene ama wo.”
Basuseba n’addamu nti, “Kale, nnaakwogererayo eri Kabaka.”
19 Enti Batseba kɔɔ ɔhene Salomo nkyɛn sɛ ɔrekɔkasa ama Adoniya. Ɔhene no sɔree sɛ ɔrebɛhyia no, bɔɔ ne mu ase ansa na ɔretena nʼahennwa so. Na ɔhyɛɛ sɛ wɔmfa adwa mmrɛ ɔhene maame, na ɔtenaa ɔhene nifa so.
Awo Basuseba bwe yagenda eri Kabaka Sulemaani, okwogererayo Adoniya, Kabaka n’agolokoka okumusisinkana, n’akutama n’oluvannyuma n’atuula ku ntebe ye ey’obwakabaka. N’atumya entebe ey’obwakabaka endala nnyina atuuleko, n’atuula ku mukono gwa kabaka ogwa ddyo.
20 Ɔka kyerɛɛ ɔhene sɛ, “Mewɔ adeɛ ketewaa bi bisa wo, na mfa nkame me.” Ɔhene no buaa no sɛ, “Bisa me, me maame. Meyɛ ama wo.”
Basuseba n’amugamba nti, “Nkusaba ekigambo kimu ekitono, era tokinnyima.” Kabaka n’amuddamu nti, “Kisabe, maama, nange siikikumme.”
21 Enti, ɔkaa sɛ, “Ma wɔmfa Sunamni Abisag mma wo nuabarima Adoniya awadeɛ.”
N’ayogera nti, “Kkiriza Abisaagi Omusunammu afumbirwe muganda wo Adoniya.”
22 Ɔhene Salomo bisaa ne maame sɛ, “Adɛn enti na wopɛ sɛ Adoniya ware Sunamni Abisag? Ɛnneɛ, sɛ wobɛbisa ahemman nso ama no. Wonim sɛ ɔyɛ me nua panin na ɔsɔfoɔ Abiatar ne Seruia babarima Yoab nso boa no!”
Kabaka Sulemaani n’addamu nnyina nti, “Lwaki osabira Adoniya, Abisaagi Omusunammu? Musabire n’obwakabaka, ate obanga ye mukulu wange; ky’ekyo, sabira ye, ne Abiyasaali kabona ne Yowaabu mutabani wa Zeruyiya!”
23 Na ɔhene Salomo de Awurade edin kaa ntam sɛ, “Sɛ Adoniya amfa ne nkwa antwa saa abisadeɛ yi so a, Onyankopɔn ne me nni no denden so pa ara.
Awo Kabaka Sulemaani n’alayira ng’agamba nti, “Katonda ankole bw’atyo n’okusingawo, Adoniya bw’atasasule n’obulamu bwe olw’ekyo ky’asabye!
24 Na seesei deɛ, mmerɛ dodoɔ a Awurade te ase yi, ɔno a watim mʼase wɔ mʼagya Dawid ahennwa so, na wabɔ me fie ahennie mu nnidisoɔ atenaseɛ ama me, sɛdeɛ ɔhyɛɛ me bɔ no, Adoniya deɛ, twa ara na ɛtwa sɛ ɔwu ɛnnɛ yi ara.”
Kale nga Mukama bw’ali omulamu, oyo annywezezza ku ntebe ey’obwakabaka eya kitange Dawudi, era ampadde olulyo nga bwe yasuubiza, Adoniya anattibwa leero!”
25 Enti, Salomo hyɛɛ Yehoiada babarima Benaia sɛ ɔnkum no, na ɔkumm Adoniya.
Awo Kabaka Sulemaani n’alagira Benaya mutabani wa Yekoyaada okutta Adoniya, era Adoniya n’attibwa.
26 Na ɔhene no ka kyerɛɛ ɔsɔfoɔ Abiatar sɛ, “Sane kɔ wo kurom Anatot. Wofata sɛ wowuo, nanso merenku wo seesei, ɛfiri sɛ, wosoaa Awurade Otumfoɔ Adaka no maa mʼagya, na wo ne no nyinaa na mohunuu amane wɔ nʼabɛbrɛsɛ nyinaa mu.”
Kabaka n’agamba Abiyasaali kabona nti, “Ggwe genda e Anasosi mu byalo byo. Osaanidde okufa, naye siikutte mu biro bino, kubanga wasitulanga essanduuko ya Mukama mu maaso ga kitange Dawudi, era n’obonyaabonyezebwa wamu naye mu bibonoobono bye.”
27 Enti, Salomo worɔɔ Abiatar atadeɛ sɛ ɔsɔfoɔ, nam so dii mmara a Awurade hyɛɛ wɔ Silo fa Eli asefoɔ ho no so.
Awo Sulemaani n’agoba Abiyasaali ku bwakabona bwa Mukama, okutuukiriza ekigambo Mukama kye yayogerera e Siiro ku nnyumba ya Eri.
28 Ɛwom, ahyɛaseɛ no na ɔnni Absalom akyi, nanso Yoab de ne ho kɔdɔm Adoniya adɔnyɛ no. Ɛberɛ a Yoab tee Adoniya wuo no, ɔtuu mmirika kɔɔ Awurade ntomadan kronkron no mu, na ɔkɔsosɔɔ mmɛn a ɛtuatua afɔrebukyia no ho no mu.
Amawulire bwe gaatuuka eri Yowaabu, eyali akyuse okugoberera Adoniya, newaakubadde nga teyagoberera Abusaalomu, n’addukira mu weema ya Mukama, n’akwata ku mayembe g’ekyoto.
29 Ɛberɛ a ɔhene Salomo tee asɛm yi, ɔsomaa Yehoiada babarima Benaia sɛ ɔnkɔkum no.
Bwe baategeeza kabaka Sulemaani nti Yowaabu addukidde mu weema ya Mukama, era nti ali ku kyoto, n’alagira Benaya mutabani wa Yekoyaada nti, “Genda omutte.”
30 Na Benaia kɔɔ Awurade ntomadan kronkron no mu kɔka kyerɛɛ Yoab sɛ, “Ɔhene se firi adi.” Nanso, Yoab buaa sɛ, “Dabi, mɛwu wɔ ha.” Enti, Benaia sane kɔɔ ɔhene no nkyɛn kɔkaa asɛm a Yoab aka no kyerɛɛ no.
Benaya n’agenda mu weema ya Mukama, n’agamba Yowaabu nti, “Kabaka akulagidde okufuluma.” Naye ye n’addamu nti, “Nedda, nzija kufiira wano.” Benaya n’azzaayo obubaka eri kabaka, nga Yowaabu bwe yamuddamu.
31 Ɔhene no tee asɛm a Yoab kaeɛ no, ɔka kyerɛɛ Benaia sɛ, “Yɛ deɛ ɔkaeɛ no. Ku no wɔ afɔrebukyia no ho, na sie no. Yei bɛyi adwenemherɛ mogyahwieguo ho afɔdie afiri me ne mʼagya fiefoɔ so.
Awo kabaka n’alagira Benaya nti, “Kola nga bw’ayogedde, omutte era omuziike oggyewo omusango ku nze ne ku nnyumba ya kitange olw’omusaayi Yowaabu gwe yayiwa awatali nsonga.
32 Na Awurade bɛtua no kum a ɔkumm mmarima ateneneefoɔ amapa baanu a na wɔyɛ sene no no so ka. Na mʼagya nnim Ner babarima Abner a na ɔyɛ Israel akodɔm sahene ne Yeter babarima Amasa a na ɔno nso yɛ Yuda akodɔm sahene no wuo ho hwee.
Era Mukama alimusasula olw’omusaayi gwe yayiwa, kubanga yagwa ku basajja babiri n’abatta n’ekitala, Abuneeri mutabani wa Neeri, omukulu w’eggye lya Isirayiri, ne Amasa mutabani wa Yeseri, omukulu w’eggye lya Yuda, kitange Dawudi n’atakimanya, ate nga baali bamusinga obutuukirivu n’obulungi.
33 Yoab ne nʼasefoɔ deɛ, saa awudie ahodoɔ yi ho afɔdie ntena wɔn so, na Awurade mma Dawid ne nʼasefoɔ ne nʼahennwa asomdwoeɛ afebɔɔ!”
Bwe gutyo omusango gw’omusaayi gwabwe gubeere ku mutwe gwa Yowaabu ne ku zzadde lye emirembe gyonna. Naye ku Dawudi ne ku zzadde lye, era ne ku nnyumba ye ne ku ntebe ye ey’obwakabaka, wabeerewo emirembe gya Mukama emirembe gyonna.”
34 Enti, Yehoiada babarima Benaia sane kɔɔ ntomadan kronkron no mu, kɔkumm Yoab, na wɔsiee Yoab wɔ ne kurom wiram baabi.
Awo Benaya mutabani wa Yekoyaada n’ayambuka n’atta Yowaabu, n’aziikibwa mu ttaka lye mu ddungu.
35 Na ɔhene no yii Yehoiada babarima Benaia sɛ ɔnsi Yoab anan sɛ ɔsafohene. Na ɔyii ɔsɔfoɔ Sadok de no sii Abiatar anan.
Awo kabaka n’afuula Benaya mutabani wa Yekoyaada omukulu w’eggye mu kifo kya Yowaabu, n’afuula ne Zadooki kabona mu kifo kya Abiyasaali.
36 Ɔhene no soma ma wɔkɔfrɛɛ Simei ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Si efie wɔ Yerusalem ha na tena mu. Nanso, mfiri kuro no mu nkɔ baabiara.
Kabaka n’atumya Simeeyi n’amugamba nti, “Weezimbire ennyumba mu Yerusaalemi obeere omwo, so tovangamu okugenda awantu wonna.
37 Na da a wobɛtwa Kidron bɔnhwa no, wobɛwu; na wo mogya bɛgu wʼankasa wo tiri so.”
Olunaku lw’olivaayo n’osomoka ekiwonvu Kiduloni, tegeerera ddala nga tolirema kufa, era omusaayi gwo guliba ku mutwe gwo ggwe.”
38 Na Simei buaa sɛ, “Wʼatemmuo no yɛ kronn. Biribiara a me wura ɔhene bɛhyɛ sɛ menyɛ no, mɛyɛ.” Enti, Simei tenaa Yerusalem kyɛree yie.
Simeeyi n’addamu Kabaka nti, “Ky’oyogedde kirungi. Omuddu wo ajja kukola nga mukama wange kabaka bw’ayogedde.” Awo Simeeyi n’amala ekiseera kiwanvu mu Yerusaalemi.
39 Na mfeɛ mmiɛnsa akyi no, Simei asomfoɔ baanu dwane kɔɔ Gathene Akis, Maaka babarima nkyɛn. Ɛberɛ a Simei hunuu baabi a wɔwɔ no,
Naye bwe waayitawo emyaka esatu, babiri ku baddu ba Simeeyi ne baddukira eri Akisi mutabani wa Maaka kabaka w’e Gaasi. Simeeyi n’ategeezebwa nti, “Abaddu bo bali Gaasi.”
40 ɔhyehyɛɛ nʼafunumu, kɔɔ Gat, kɔhwehwɛɛ wɔn. Ɔhunuu wɔn no, ɔde wɔn sane baa Yerusalem.
Simeeyi olwawulira ebyo, ne yeebagala endogoyi ye n’agenda e Gaasi eri Akisi okunoonya abaddu be. Simeeyi n’agenda okuleeta abaddu be okuva e Gaasi.
41 Salomo tee sɛ Simei afiri Yerusalem akɔ Gat asane aba.
Bwe baabuulira Sulemaani nti Simeeyi yava e Yerusaalemi n’agenda e Gaasi era n’akomawo,
42 Enti, wɔsoma ma wɔkɔfrɛɛ Simei baeɛ, na ɔbisaa no sɛ, “Mamma woanka ntam Awurade edin mu sɛ, worenkɔ baabiara, na sɛ anyɛ saa a, wobɛwu? Na wobuaa sɛ, ‘Atemmuo no yɛ kronkron; na mɛdi asɛm a woaka no so.’
kabaka n’amutumya, n’amubuuza nti, “Saakulayiza Mukama ne nkulabula nti, ‘Tegeerera ddala nga olunaku lw’olivaawo okugenda awantu wonna, olifa?’ N’oŋŋamba nti, ‘Kye njogedde kirungi era nzija kukigondera.’
43 Na adɛn enti na woanni wo ntanka no so amma Awurade, na woantie me nhyɛ?”
Kale kiki ekyakulobera okwekuuma ekirayiro kya Mukama n’ekiragiro kye nakulagira?”
44 Na ɔhene no ka kaa ho sɛ, “Akyinnyeɛ biara nni ho sɛ wokae amumuyɛ a woyɛɛ mʼagya, ɔhene Dawid. Awurade bɛtwe wʼaso wɔ ho.
Awo kabaka n’agamba Simeeyi nti, “Omanyi mu mutima gwo obubi bwonna bwe wakola Dawudi kitange. Kaakano Mukama alikusasula olw’obubi bwo.
45 Na medeɛ, mɛnya Awurade nhyira, na daa Dawid aseni atena ahennwa no so.”
Naye kabaka Sulemaani aliweebwa omukisa, ne ntebe ya Dawudi ey’obwakabaka erinywezebwa mu maaso ga Mukama emirembe gyonna.”
46 Na ɔhene no nhyɛ so, Yehoiada babarima Benaia faa Simei de no firii adi kɔkumm no. Enti ahemman no timiiɛ wɔ Salomo nsam.
Kabaka n’alagira Benaya mutabani wa Yekoyaada, okutta Simeeyi. Obwakabaka ne bunywezebwa mu mukono gwa Sulemaani.
