2 Samuel 17

1 Ahitofel ka kyerɛɛ Absalom sɛ, “Mɛyi akodɔm mpem dumienu, na mafiri ha anadwo yi akɔtaa Dawid so.

Awo Akisoferi n’agamba Abusaalomu nti, “Leka nnonde abasajja omutwalo gumu mu enkumi bbiri, ŋŋende mpondere Dawudi ekiro kino.

2 Mɛto no wɔ ɛberɛ a wabrɛ na nʼaba mu abu. Ɔne nʼakodɔm nyinaa bɛbɔ hu na wɔadwane. Ɔhene no nko ara na mɛbɔ no ahwe,

Ndimulumba mu bukoowu bwe ne mu bunafu bwe ne mutiisatiisa, era n’abantu bonna abali naye balidduka. Ndikuba kabaka yekka ne mutta,

3 na mede nnipa no asane abrɛ wo, sɛdeɛ ayeforɔ kɔ ne kunu nkyɛn. Saa onipa yi nkwa nko ara na worehwehwɛ. Afei nnipa no nyinaa bɛka a wɔrenha obiara.”

naye abantu abalala bonna ndibakomyawo gy’oli. Okufa kw’omusajja omu yekka gw’onoonya, kulikomyawo abantu bonna nga tebaliiko mutawaana.”

4 Saa nhyehyɛeɛ yi sɔɔ Absalom ne Israel mpanimfoɔ nyinaa ani.

Ekigambo ekyo Abusaalomu n’abakadde bonna aba Isirayiri ne bakisiima.

5 Nanso, Absalom kaa sɛ, “Momfrɛ Husai a ɔfiri Arki no mmra na yɛntie deɛ ɔwɔ ka.”

Naye Abusaalomu n’ayogera nti, “Mumpitire ne Kusaayi Omwaluki, tuwulire ky’anaayogera ku nsonga eyo.”

6 Husai baeɛ no, Absalom kaa deɛ Ahitofel aka no kyerɛɛ no. Afei ɔbisaa no sɛ, “Wʼadwene ne sɛn? Yɛmfa Ahitofel afotuo no anaa? Na sɛ ɛnte saa a, kyerɛ yɛn wʼadwene.”

Kusaayi bwe yajja eri Abusaalomu, Abusaalomu n’amugamba nti, Akisoferi, amagezi g’atuwadde ge gano. Tukole nga Akisoferi bw’agambye? Oba nga si weewaawo, ggwe ogamba otya?

7 Husai buaa Absalom sɛ, “Mʼadwene ne sɛ saa ɛberɛ yi deɛ Ahitofel ayɛ mfomsoɔ.

Kusaayi n’addamu Abusaalomu nti, “Ago amagezi Akisoferi g’abawadde si malungi ku mulundi guno.

8 Wonim wʼagya ne ne dɔm; wɔyɛ akofoɔ akɛseɛ. Saa ɛberɛ yi, wɔn ani abre sɛ sisire a wɔawia ne mma wɔ wiram. Ɛno da nkyɛn a, wʼagya nim de wɔ akodie mu. Ɔne nʼakodɔm no rentena anadwo yi.

Omanyi kitaawo n’abasajja be nga basajja balwanyi era nga bakambwe ng’eddubu erinyagiddwako abaana baalyo. Ate n’ekirala, kitaawo mulwanyi mumanyirivu; tayinza kusula na baserikale.

9 Sɛ merekasa yi, wakɔtɛ ɔbodan bi mu anaa baabi foforɔ. Na sɛ ɔdi ɛkan to hyɛ mo so na mo mu kakra bi mpo totɔ a, ehu bɛtɔ wo dɔm no so na obiara bɛteam sɛ wɔrekunkum wo dɔm no.

Ne mu kiseera kino, ayinza okuba nga yeekwese mu mpuku oba mu kifo ekirala. Bw’anaasooka okulumba abantu bo, buli anaakiwulira anaagamba nti, ‘Bangi ku bagoberezi ba Abusaalomu battiddwa.’

10 Na sɛ ɛba saa a, ɔsraani a ɔyɛ nnam a nʼakoma te sɛ gyata no koraa, ehu bɛma wabɔ hu. Na Israel nyinaa nim sɛ wʼagya yɛ ɔkofoɔ, na wɔn a wɔka ne ho no nso bo yɛ duru.

Olwo n’omuntu omuzira mu bazira, alina omutima oguli ng’omutima gw’empologoma, anaayongoberera ddala, kubanga Isirayiri yenna bamanyi kitaawo nga musajja mulwanyi, era n’abali naye basajja bazira.

11 “Enti, metu wo fo sɛ, boa Israel nyinaa ano, ɛfiri Dan kɔsi Beer-Seba. Woyɛ saa a wobɛnya akodɔm a wɔn dodoɔ bɛyɛ sɛ mpoano anwea. Na megye medi sɛ wʼankasa bɛdi akodɔm no anim.

“Naye nze amagezi ge nkuwa ge gano: kuŋŋaanya gy’oli Isirayiri yenna okuva ku Ddaani okutuuka e Beeruseba, mu bungi bwabwe, ng’omusenyu ogw’oku nnyanja bwe guli obungi, ggwe mwene obakulembere mu lutalo.

12 Na sɛ yɛhunu Dawid a, yɛbɛto ahyɛ no so, sɛdeɛ bosuo gu asase so, a ɔno ne mmarima no mu baako mpo nka.

Tulimulumba yonna gy’alisangibwa, ne tumugwako ng’omusulo bwe gugwa ku ttaka. Ye newaakubadde abasajja abali naye, tewaliba n’omu aliba omulamu.

13 Na sɛ Dawid adwane kɔ kuropɔn bi so a, wode Israel akodɔm nyinaa bɛkɔ hɔ. Afei, yɛbɛtumi afa ntampehoma de atwe kuro no afasuo, akɔgu bɔnhwa a ɛbɛn mu, kɔsi sɛ ɛboɔ biara a ɛwɔ mu no bɛyam.”

Bw’aliddukira mu kibuga, Isirayiri yenna, balireeta emiguwa, ne tukiwalulira mu mugga obutalekawo jjinja n’erimu.”

14 Afei, Absalom ne Israel mpanimfoɔ nyinaa kaa sɛ, “Husai afotuo no yɛ sene Ahitofel deɛ no.” Ɛfiri sɛ, Awurade ahyehyɛ sɛ Ahitofel afotuo pa a ɔde ama no bɛsɛe, sɛdeɛ ɛbɛyɛ a, ɔhaw ne abɛbrɛsɛ bɛba Absalom so.

Awo Abusaalomu n’abasajja bonna aba Isirayiri ne bakkiriziganya nti, “Ekiteeso Kusaayi Omwaluki ky’aleese kirungi okusinga ekya Akisoferi.” Mukama yasiima okulemesa ekiteeso ekirungi ekya Akisoferi alyoke azikirize Abusaalomu.

15 Na Husai kɔkaa asɛm a Ahitofel aka ne ɔno ankasa adwenkyerɛ no kyerɛɛ asɔfoɔ Sadok ne Abiatar.

Naye Kusaayi n’ategeeza Zadooki ne Abiyasaali bakabona nti, “Akisoferi awadde Abusaalomu n’abakadde ba Isirayiri amagezi bwe gati ne bwe gati, naye nze mbawabudde okukola bwe bati ne bwe bati.

16 Ɔka kyerɛɛ wɔn sɛ, “Ntɛm! Monkɔhwehwɛ Dawid, na monka nkyerɛ no sɛ, ɔnntena Asubɔnten Yordan aworɔso hɔ anadwo yi. Ɛsɛ sɛ ɔtwa kɔ ɛserɛ no so akyi, anyɛ saa a, ɔne nʼakodɔm nyinaa bɛwuwu.”

Kaakano muweereze mangu obubaka mutegeeze Dawudi nti, ‘Ekiro kya leero tosula ku misomoko egy’omu ddungu; ssomoka, kabaka n’abantu bonna abali naye baleme okumalibwawo.’”

17 Yonatan ne Ahimaas tenaa En-Rogel, sɛdeɛ ɛbɛyɛ a, wɔrenkɔ kuro no mu na wɔnnsane mpue. Na wɔayɛ nhyehyɛeɛ bi sɛ abaawa bi de nkra a ɛsɛ sɛ wɔde kɔma ɔhene Dawid no bɛbrɛ wɔn.

Yonasaani ne Akimaazi baabeeranga ku Enerogeri. Baali balinda omuwala okujja okubategeeza byonna, n’oluvannyuma bagende babuulire kabaka Dawudi; baali beewala okulabibwa nga bayingira mu kibuga.

18 Nanso abarimaa bi hunuu wɔn sɛ wɔrefiri En-Rogel akɔ Dawid nkyɛn enti, ɔkɔka kyerɛɛ Absalom. Na wɔdwane kɔɔ Bahurim, maa ɔbarima bi de wɔn kɔsiee abura bi a ɛwɔ nʼadihɔ mu.

Naye waaliwo omuvubuka eyabalaba, n’agenda n’abuulira Abusaalomu. Amangwago bombi ne baddukira mu nnyumba ey’omwami omu mu Bakulimu. Yalina oluzzi mu luggya lwe; ne bakka omwo.

19 Ɔbarima no yere de ntoma hataa abura no so, de atokoɔ guu so te sɛ deɛ ɔrehata no awia so, na obiara ansusu sɛ nnipa hyɛ abura no mu.

Omukyala we n’addira ekisaanikira n’asaanikira ku kamwa k’oluzzi, n’ayiwako eŋŋaano n’agisaasaanyizaako. Ne wataba n’omu eyakitegeera.

20 Ɛberɛ a Absalom mmarima no duruu hɔ no, wɔbisaa ɔbaa no sɛ, “Woahunu Ahimaas ne Yonatan anaa?” Ɔbuaa wɔn sɛ, “Na wɔwɔ ha deɛ, nanso wɔatwa asuwa no kɔ.” Absalom mmarima no hwehwɛɛ wɔn, nanso wɔanhunu wɔn enti, wɔsane kɔɔ Yerusalem.

Awo abasajja ba Abusaalomu bwe batuuka ew’omukyala ku nnyumba, ne bamubuuza nti, “Akimaazi ne Yonasaani bali ludda wa?” N’abaddamu nti, “Basomose akagga ak’amazzi.” Abasajja ne babanoonyako naye ne batalaba muntu yenna, ne baddayo e Yerusaalemi.

21 Afei mmarima baanu no firii abura no mu, de mmirika kɔɔ ɔhene Dawid nkyɛn kɔbɔɔ no amaneɛ sɛ, “Firi ha tware asuo no ntɛm so anadwo yi!” Wɔkaa Ahitofel afotuo a ɛbɛma wɔakyere no akum no no kyerɛɛ no.

Abasajja bwe baagenda, abaali beekwese ne bava mu luzzi ne bagenda ne bategeeza kabaka Dawudi. Ne bamugamba nti, “Golokoka osomoke mangu omugga, kubanga Akisoferi ateeseteese bw’ati ne bw’ati.”

22 Enti, Dawid ne nnipa no nyinaa tutuu so, kɔtwaa Yordan. Ɛduruu ahemadakye no, na obiara atwa Yordan kɔ nʼagya.

Awo Dawudi n’abantu bonna abaali naye ne bagolokoka ne basomoka Yoludaani; we bwakeerera nga tewali n’omu atasomose Yoludaani.

23 Ahitofel hunuu sɛ nʼanim agu ase, ɛfiri sɛ wɔamfa nʼafotuo no, ɔhyehyɛɛ nʼafunumu tenaa ne so, kɔɔ ne kurom. Ɔtotoo ne nneɛma yie, na ɔhyɛɛ ne ho akɔmfo. Enti, ɔwuiɛ ma wɔsiee no wɔ nʼagya da mu.

Akisoferi bwe yalaba nga amagezi ge tegagobereddwa, ne yeebagala endogoyi ye, n’agenda ewuwe mu kyalo kye waabwe. N’ateekateeka ennyumba ye, n’oluvannyuma ne yeetuga. N’aziikibwa mu ntaana ya kitaawe.

24 Ankyɛre na Dawid duruu Mahanaim. Saa ɛberɛ yi na Absalom aboaboa Israel akodɔm no nyinaa ano a ɔdi wɔn anim rekɔtwa Asubɔnten Yordan.

Dawudi n’agenda e Makanayimu, ne Abusaalomu n’abasajja bonna aba Isirayiri ne basomoka Yoludaani.

25 Absalom yii Amasa de no tuaa akodɔm no ano, sii Yoab a na anka ɔyɛ Dawid sahene no ananmu. Amasa yɛ ɔbarima bi a wɔfrɛ no Yitra, a ɔyɛ Israelni a ɔwaree Abigail a ɔyɛ Nahas babaa, na ɔyɛ Seruia nuabaa, a ɔyɛ Yoab na no ba.

Abusaalomu n’alonda Amasa okuba omuduumizi w’eggye mu kifo kya Yowaabu. Amasa yali mutabani wa Isira Omuyisimayiri eyawasa Abbigayiri muwala wa Nakasi muganda wa Zeruyiya nnyina Yowaabu.

26 Israelfoɔ no ne Absalom tenaa Gilead asase so.

Abayisirayiri ne Abusaalomu ne basiisira mu nsi ya Gireyaadi.

27 Na Dawid duruu Mahanaim no, Nahas a ɔfiri Raba babarima Sobi Amonni no, kyeaa no fɛ so. Saa ara na Amiel a ɔfiri Lo-debar babarima Makir ne Gileadni Barsilai a ɔfiri Rogelim nso gyee no fɛ so.

Dawudi bwe yatuuka e Makanayimu, Sobi mutabani wa Nakasi ow’e Labba eky’Abamoni, ne Makiri mutabani wa Ammiyeri ow’e Lodebali, ne Baluzirayi Omugireyaadi ow’e Logerimu,

28 Wɔbrɛɛ no kɛtɛ, nkuku ne nkaka, atokoɔ, asikyiresiam, nkyeweɛ, asɛ ne asɛdua,

ne bamuleetera ebyokwebikka, n’ebibya, n’entamu, n’eŋŋaano, ne sayiri, n’obutta, n’eŋŋaano ensiike, n’ebijanjaalo, n’empindi, ne mpokya omusiike,

29 ɛwoɔ ne nufosuo ani sradeɛ ne anantwie nufosuo a akyenkyene mua. Wɔde brɛɛ Dawid ne ne nkurɔfoɔ a wɔka ne ho no. Na wɔkaa sɛ, “Mo nyinaa moabrɛbrɛ, na ɛkɔm ne sukɔm de mo ɛfiri sɛ moanante ɛkwan tenten wɔ ɛserɛ so.”

n’omubisi gw’enjuki, n’omuzigo, n’endiga, ne bbongo, ne babiwa Dawudi n’abantu be okulya. Ne boogera nti, “Abantu enjala ebaluma, era bakooye, n’ennyonta ebalumidde mu ddungu.”
