< 2 Samuel 18 >
1 Afei, Dawid yiyii asahene ne asafohene dii nʼakodɔm anim.
Dawuda ya tattara mutanen da suke tare da shi, ya naɗa musu komandodi na dubu-dubu, da na ɗari-ɗari.
2 Yoab na ɔtuaa wɔn mu nkyɛmu mmiɛnsa mu baako ano. Yoab nuabarima Abisai a na ɔyɛ Seruia babarima na ɔtuaa nkyɛmu mmiɛnsa mu baako nso ano. Ɛnna nkyɛmu mmiɛnsa mu baako a aka no, Gatni Itai na ɔtuaa ano. Ɔhene no ka kyerɛɛ nʼakodɔm no sɛ, “Me ne mo na ɛrekɔ.”
Dawuda ya sa rundunoni kashi ɗaya bisa uku a ƙarƙashin Yowab, kashi ɗaya bisa uku a ƙarƙashin Abishai, ɗan’uwan Yowab ɗan Zeruhiya, kashi ɗaya bisa uku a ƙarƙashin Ittai mutumin Gat. Sai sarki ya ce wa rundunonin, “Tabbatacce zan tafi tare da ku.”
3 Nanso, ne mmarima no tiaa mu dendeenden sɛ, “Ɛnsɛ sɛ wokɔ bi. Na sɛ ɛba sɛ, ɛsɛ sɛ yɛwae, na yɛdwane, na sɛ mpo, yɛn mu fa koraa wuwu a, ɛrennuru Absalom akodɔm no ho hwee. Wo ara na wɔbɛhwehwɛ. Wo nko ara yɛ yɛn mu ɔpedu enti, ɛyɛ sɛ wobɛtena kurom na sɛ mmoa bi ho hia yɛn a, wode bɛba.”
Amma mutanen suka ce, “Ba za ka fita ba; gama in ya kasance tilas mu gudu, ba za su kula da mu ba. Ko da rabinmu sun mutu, ba za su damu ba; amma kai kanka ka fi mutum dubu goma namu. Zai fi maka ka zauna a cikin gari, ka dinga aika mana da taimako.”
4 Ɔhene penee so sɛ, “Sɛ modwene sɛ ɛno ne adwene pa deɛ a, mate.” Enti, ɔkɔgyinaa kuro no ɛpono ano, ɛberɛ a akodɔm no rekɔ no.
Sarki ya ce, “Zan yi duk abin da ya fi muku kyau.” Saboda haka sarki ya tsaya kusa da bakin ƙofa yayinda dukan mutane suke fitowa a ƙungiyar ɗari-ɗari da ta dubu-dubu.
5 Na ɔhene no hyɛɛ Yoab, Abisai ne Itai sɛ, “Me enti mo ne abɔfra Absalom nni no bɔkɔɔ so.” Na akodɔm no nyinaa tee saa nhyɛ a ɔhene hyɛɛ nʼasafohene no.
Sarki ya umarci Yowab, Abishai, da Ittai, ya ce musu, “Ku yi mini hankali da saurayin nan Absalom.” Dukan mutane kuwa suka ji yadda sarki yake ba wa kowane komanda umarni.
6 Enti, ɔko no hyɛɛ aseɛ wɔ Efraim kwaeɛ mu.
Rundunonin suka tafi zuwa fili don su yi yaƙi da Isra’ila. Aka kuwa yi yaƙi a kurmin Efraim.
7 Na Dawid mmarima no yɛɛ Israel akodɔm no pasaa. Ɛyɛ akofena ano kum, na da no, mmarima ɔpeduonu na wɔhweree wɔn nkwa.
A nan ne mutanen Isra’ila suka sha kashi a hannun mutanen Dawuda. Waɗanda suka yi rauni da kuma waɗanda suka mutu a ranar sun yi yawa, mutum dubu ashirin.
8 Ɔko no didi kɔɔ nkuro so, na ɛsiane kwaeɛ no enti, nnipa pii wuwuiɛ sene wɔn a wɔwuu wɔ akofena ano no.
Yaƙin ya bazu a duk fāɗin ƙauyukan, abin da kurmin ya ci kawai a ranar ya fi yawan abin da aka kashe da takobi.
9 Ɔko no gyina mu no, Absalom puee prɛko pɛ wɔ Dawid mmarima no bi mu. Ɔpɛɛ sɛ ɔdwane wɔ nʼafunumpɔnkɔ so, nanso ɔdwane kɔfaa dɔtɔ bi mu wɔ odum bi ase. Ɔdɔtɔ no kyekyeree ne tirinwi, ma ɔkaa mu. Nʼafunumpɔnkɔ no deɛ, na kɔ ara na ɔrekɔ enti, ɔgyaa no hɔ a, ɔsensɛn dɔtɔ no mu a ɔreto adonko wɔ ewiem.
To, Absalom ya haɗu da mutanen Dawuda. Yana hawan dokinsa, kuma yayinda dokin ya kusa kai cikin rassan babban itacen oak, sai kan Absalom ya sarƙafe a kan itacen oak ɗin. Dokin ya wuce da gudu, shi kuwa ya rataye a can yana lilo.
10 Dawid mmarima no baako hunuu asɛm a asi no, ɔka kyerɛɛ Yoab sɛ, “Mehunuu Absalom sɛ ɔsensɛn dua bi so wɔ dɔtɔ mu.”
Sa’ad da wani daga cikin mutanen ya gan haka, sai ya gaya wa Yowab, “Na ga Absalom yana rataye a itacen oak.”
11 Yoab bisaa sɛ, “Asɛm pa ara? Wohunuu no na woanku no? Anka mɛma wo dwetɛ gram ɔha ne dunan ne akokoɔduru abɔwomu sɛ akradeɛ.”
Yowab ya ce wa mutumin da ya ba shi labarin, “Mene! Ka ga shi? Don me ba ka buge shi har ƙasa nan da nan ba? Ai, da na ba ka shekel goma na azurfa da abin ɗamarar jarumi.”
12 Ɔbarima no buaa sɛ, “Sɛ anka wobɛma me dwetɛ kilogram dubaako ne fa koraa a, anka merenyɛ saa. Yɛn nyinaa tee sɛ, ɔhene ka kyerɛɛ wo, Abisai ne Itai sɛ, ‘Me enti, obiara nnyɛ aberanteɛ Absalom bɔne.’
Amma mutumin ya ce wa Yowab, “Ko da za a auna mini azurfa dubu a hannuna, ba zan miƙa hannuna in taɓa ɗan sarki ba. A kunnuwanmu fa sarki ya umarce ka, da Abishai, da Ittai cewa, ‘Ku tsare saurayin nan Absalom a madadina.’
13 Na sɛ mebu ɔhene asɛm so kum ne babarima a, anka deɛ ɛbɛyɛ biara, ɔhene bɛhwehwɛ deɛ ɔyɛɛ saa. Na anka wʼankasa ne onipa a anka wobɛyi me ama.”
Da na yi haka da na sa kaina a halin ƙaƙa-ni-ka-yi, kuma babu abin da zai ɓoyu ga sarki, kai kuwa za ka janye abinka daga gare ni.”
14 Yoab kaa sɛ, “Saa nkwaseasɛm yi ayɛ yie.” Enti, ɔtwee mpɛmɛ mmiɛnsa de wowɔɔ Absalom akoma mu ɛberɛ a na ɔsensɛn odum no so a na ɔnwuiɛ no.
Yowab ya ce, “Ba zan ɓata lokaci da kai ba.” Saboda haka sai ya ɗauki māsu uku a hannunsa ya zura su a ƙahon zuciyar Absalom, tun Absalom yana da sauran rai a maƙale a itacen oak.
15 Yoab akodeɛkurafoɔ no mu mmeranteɛ edu twaa Absalom ho hyiaeɛ, na wɔkumm no.
Masu ɗaukan kayan yaƙin Yowab goma kuwa sun kewaye Absalom, suka bubbuge shi suka kashe.
16 Na Yoab hyɛnee totorobɛnto, maa akodɔm no gyaee Israel so taa.
Sa’an nan Yowab ya busa ƙaho, sai sojoji suka bar fafaran Isra’ila, gama Yowab ya tsai da su.
17 Wɔfaa Absalom amu no to twenee amena donkudonku bi mu wɔ kwaeɛ mu hɔ, na wɔsoaa abotan guu ne so. Na Israelfoɔ no nyinaa dwane kɔɔ wɔn afie.
Suka ɗauki Absalom, suka jefa shi cikin wani babban rami a kurmin, suka kuwa tula tsibin duwatsu a kansa. Ana cikin haka, sai dukan Isra’ilawa suka tsere zuwa gidajensu.
18 Ɛberɛ a Absalom te ase no, ɔsii nkaeɛdum bi wɔ ɔhene bɔnhwa mu de kaee ɔno ara ne ho, ɛfiri sɛ, ɔdwenee sɛ, “Menni ɔbabarima biara a ɔbɛyɛ nkaedeɛ biara de akae me din.” Ɔde nkaeɛdum no too ne ho, na wɔfrɛ no Absalom Nkaeɛdum de bɛsi ɛnnɛ.
A lokacin da Absalom yake da rai, Absalom ya gina wa kansa al’amudin tunawa, a Kwarin Sarki, gama ya yi tunani ya ce, “Ba ni da ɗa namiji wanda zai sa a riƙa tunawa da ni.” Sai ya kira ginshiƙin da sunansa, ana kuwa kira shi Al’amudin Absalom har wa yau.
19 Na Sadok babarima Ahimaas kaa sɛ, “Momma mentu mmirika nkɔbɔ ɔhene amaneɛ sɛ, Awurade ayi no afiri atamfoɔ nsam.”
Ahimawaz ɗan Zadok ya ce, “Bari in ruga in kai wa sarki labari cewa Ubangiji ya cece shi daga hannun abokan gābansa.”
20 Na Yoab nso ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Sɛ ɔhene ba awu a, ɛnyɛ asɛm papa mma no. Wobɛtumi akɔbɔ saa amaneɛ no ɛda foforɔ bi, na ɛnyɛ ɛnnɛ.”
Yowab ya ce, “Ba kai ba ne za ka kai wannan labari a yau ba. Kana iya kai labarin wani lokaci, amma yau kam ba zai yiwu ba, saboda ɗan sarki ya mutu.”
21 Na Yoab ka kyerɛɛ Kusni bi sɛ, “Kɔ na kɔka deɛ woahunu no kyerɛ ɔhene.” Ɛhɔ ara na Kusni no bɔɔ ne mu ase wɔ Yoab anim, na ɔtuu mmirika kɔeɛ.
Sai Yowab ya ce wa wani mutumin Kush, “Je ka faɗa wa sarki abin da ka gani.” Mutumin Kush ɗin kuwa ya rusuna wa Yowab, sai ya ruga a guje.
22 Bio, Sadok babarima Ahimaas ka kyerɛɛ Yoab sɛ, “Deɛ ɛbɛba biara mmra, ma me ne Kusni no nkɔ.” Nanso, Yoab bisaa no sɛ, “Me ba, adɛn enti na wopɛ sɛ wokɔ? Wonni amanneɛbɔ biara a ɛbɛma wo abasobɔdeɛ biara.”
Ahimawaz ɗan Zadok ya sāke ce wa Yowab, “Ko mene ne zai faru, ina roƙonka bari in bi bayan mutumin Kush nan.” Amma Yowab ya ce, “Ɗana me ya sa kake so ka je? Ba ka da labarin da zai jawo maka lada.”
23 Ɔkaa sɛ, “Mepene so, nanso ma menkɔ.” Enti Yoab ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Kɔ!” Na Ahimaas faa tata no so kɔeɛ, kɔsianee Kusni no ho.
Ya ce, “Ko mene ne zai faru, ina so in ruga da gudu.” Sai Yowab ya ce, “Ruga!” Sai Ahimawaz ya sheƙa a guje ya bi ta hanyar fili ya riga mutumin Kush nan.
24 Ɛberɛ a Dawid te kuro no ɛpono ano no, ne wɛmfoɔ no kɔɔ kuro no ɛpono no atifi wɔ ɔfasuo no so. Ɔtoo nʼani no, ɔhunuu sɛ obi de mmirika reba.
Yayinda Dawuda yake zaune tsakanin ƙofofin ciki da na waje, sai mai tsaro ya hau rufin ginin da yake kan hanyar shiga ta wajen katanga. Da ya duba sai ya ga wani mutum shi kaɗai yana gudu.
25 Ɔwɛmfoɔ no teaam ka kyerɛɛ Dawid na ɔhene no buaa sɛ, “Sɛ ɔno nko ara na ɔnam deɛ a, ebia, na ɔde asɛm pa nam.” Na ɔreba ara, na ɔpinkyɛe.
Mai tsaro ya tā da murya ya faɗa wa sarki. Sarki ya ce, “In shi kaɗai ne, ya kawo labari mai kyau ke nan.” Mutumin ya matso kusa-kusa.
26 Afei ɔwɛmfoɔ no hunuu sɛ ɔbarima foforɔ nso di so reba, na ɔteaam sɛ, “Hwɛ onipa foforɔ bi de mmirika reba!” Ɔhene no kaa sɛ, “Ebia, na ɔno nso de asɛm pa na ɛnam.”
Sai mai tsaron ya ga wani mutum yana zuwa a guje. Sai ya tā da murya ya kira mai tsaron ƙofa ya ce, “Duba, ga wani mutum kuma yana gudu shi kaɗai!” Sarki ya ce, “Shi ma yana kawo labari mai daɗi ne.”
27 Ɔwɛmfoɔ no kaa sɛ, “Ɔbarima a ɔdi ɛkan no sɛ Sadok babarima Ahimaas.” Ɔhene no kaa sɛ, “Ɔyɛ onipa pa a, ɔde asɛm pa nam.”
Sai mai tsaron ya ce, “A ganina gudu na farin, ya yi kama da gudun Ahimawaz, ɗan Zadok.” Sarki ya ce, “Shi mutumin kirki ne, yana zuwa da saƙo mai kyau.”
28 Na Ahimaas teaam, frɛɛ ɔhene no sɛ, “Biribiara yɛ!” Ɔkotoo wɔ ɔhene no anim, de nʼanim butuu fam kaa sɛ, “Animuonyam nka Awurade, wo Onyankopɔn. Ɔde nnipa a wɔyɛɛ dɔm tiaa me wura ɔhene ahyɛ ne nsa.”
Sai Ahimawaz ya tā da murya ya ce wa sarki, “Kome lafiya yake!” Sai ya rusuna har ƙasa a gaban sarki ya ce, “Yabo ya tabbata ga Ubangiji Allahnka! Ya ba da mutanen da suka tayar wa ranka yă daɗe a hannunsa.”
29 Ɔhene bisaa sɛ, “Na aberanteɛ, Absalom ho yɛ anaa?” Ahimaas buaa sɛ, “Ɛberɛ a Yoab yɛɛ nʼadwene sɛ ɔpɛ sɛ ɔsoma ɔhene ɔsomfoɔ ne me wo ɔsomfoɔ no, mehunuu sɛ nneɛma ayɛ basaa a na menhunu mu yie.”
Sai sarki ya ce, “Saurayin nan Absalom yana nan da rai?” Ahimawaz ya ce, “Na ga wani babban rikicewar a daidai lokacin da Yowab yake gab da aikan bawan sarki da kuma ni, sai dai ban san ko mene ne ba.”
30 Ɔhene ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Gyina nkyɛn ha na twɛn.” Enti, ɔgyinaa nkyɛn twɛnee.
Sai sarki ya ce, “Koma gefe ka jira a can.” Sai ya ja gefe ya tsaya.
31 Na Kusni no bɛduruiɛ kaa sɛ, “Me wura, Nana, tie asɛm pa a mede nam! Ɛnnɛ, Awurade ayi wo afiri wɔn a wɔsɔre tiaa wo no nyinaa nsam.”
Sai ga mutumin Kush ya iso ya ce, “Ranka yă daɗe sarki, ka ji labari mai kyau! Ubangiji ya cece ka yau daga dukan waɗanda suka tayar maka.”
32 Na ɔhene bisaa Kusni no sɛ, “Na aberanteɛ Absalom ho te sɛn?” Kusni no buaa sɛ, “Me wura ɔhene, atamfoɔ nyinaa ne wɔn a wɔsɔre tia wo, pɛ sɛ wɔyɛ wo bɔne no, nhunu amane sɛ saa aberanteɛ no.”
Sarki ya ce wa mutumin Kush, “Saurayin nan Absalom, yana nan lafiya?” Mutumin Kush ya ce, “Allah yă sa abokan gāban ranka yă daɗe, da duk waɗanda suka tayar maka da mugunta, su zama kamar saurayin nan.”
33 Ɔhene ho wosoeɛ. Ɔfaa ɛkwan ano ɛpono no mu kɔɔ ne dan mu kɔsuiɛ, twaa adwo. Ɔrekɔ no, ɔkaa sɛ, “Ao, me ba Absalom! Me ba, me ba Absalom! Anka menwu nnya wo! Ao, Absalom, me ba, me ba!”
Sai gaban sarki ya faɗi. Ya haura zuwa ɗakin da yake kan katangar hanyar shiga ya yi kuka. Yayinda yake tafiya ya ce, “Ya ɗana Absalom! Ɗana, ɗana Absalom! Da ma a ce ni ne na mutu maimakonka. Ya Absalom, ɗana, ɗana!”
