< 2 Samuel 21 >

1 Dawid ahennie so no, ɛkɔm baa asase no so mfeɛ mmiɛnsa, enti Dawid bisaa Awurade ɛkɔm no ho asɛm. Na Awurade kaa sɛ, “Esiane ɛfɔ a Saulo ne ne fiefoɔ di wɔ kunkum a wɔkunkumm Gibeonfoɔ no ho enti na ɛkɔm saa aba no.”
Pa nthawi ya ulamuliro wa Davide kunali njala kwa zaka zitatu zotsatana. Kotero Davide anapemphera kwa Yehova. Yehova anati, “Izi zachitika chifukwa chakuti Sauli ndi banja lake akanali ndi mlandu wakupha Agibiyoni.”
2 Enti, ɔhene Dawid frɛɛ Gibeonfoɔ no nyinaa. Na wɔnka Israelfoɔ no ho, na mmom, wɔyɛ Amorifoɔ nkaeɛfoɔ bi. Israel kaa ntam sɛ, wɔrenkum wɔn, nanso ɛsiane Saulo ahopereɛ enti, ɔpɛɛ sɛ ɔtɔre wɔn ase.
Mfumu inayitanitsa Agibiyoni ndipo inayankhula nawo. (Tsono Agibiyoni sanali Aisraeli, koma otsala mwa Aamori. Aisraeli analumbira kuwasiya ndi moyo, koma Sauli chifukwa cha chikondi cha pa Israeli ndi Yuda, anafuna kuwawonongeratu).
3 Dawid bisaa Gibeonfoɔ no sɛ, “Ɛdeɛn na mɛtumi ayɛ de apata mo? Monka, sɛdeɛ ɛbɛyɛ a Awurade bɛhyira ne nkurɔfoɔ bio.”
Davide anafunsa Agibiyoni kuti, “Kodi ine ndikuchitireni chiyani? Ndipepese bwanji kuti inu mudalitse cholowa cha Yehova?”
4 Gibeonfoɔ no buaa sɛ, “Anokwa, sika rentumi, na yɛmpɛ nso sɛ wɔbɛkunkum Israelfoɔ aweretɔ so.” Enti, Dawid kɔɔ so bisaa wɔn sɛ, “Enti, ɛdeɛn na menyɛ? Monka nkyerɛ me, na mɛyɛ ama mo.”
Agibiyoni anamuyankha kuti, “Ife tilibe ufulu woti nʼkulamula Sauli ndi banja lake kuti atipatse siliva kapena golide, tilibenso ufulu woti nʼkupha wina aliyense mu Israeli.” Davide anafunsa, “Mukufuna ine ndikuchitireni chiyani?”
5 Na wɔbuaa sɛ, “Ɛyɛ Saulo na ɔdwenee ho sɛ ɔbɛsɛe yɛn, sɛdeɛ yɛrennya afa biara wɔ Israel.
Iwo anayankha mfumu kuti, “Tsono za munthu amene anatiwononga ndi kukonza chiwembu choti titheretu ndi kukhala wopanda malo mu Israeli,
6 Enti, wɔnyi Saulo mmammarima anaa ne nananom mmarima baason mma yɛn, na yɛbɛkum wɔn wɔ Awurade anim wɔ Gibea bepɔ no so.” Ɔhene no kaa sɛ, “Ɛyɛ. Mɛyɛ.”
mutipatse adzukulu ake aamuna asanu ndi awiri kuti tiwaphe ndi kuwapereka pamaso pa Yehova ku Gibeya wa Sauli, wosankhidwa wa Yehova.” Choncho mfumu inati, “Ine ndidzakupatsani.”
7 Dawid gyaee Yonatan babarima Mefiboset a na ɔyɛ Saulo nana no, ɛsiane ntam a na Dawid ne Yonatan aka wɔ Awurade anim no enti.
Koma mfumu inasunga Mefiboseti mwana wa Yonatani, mwana wa Sauli, chifukwa cha kulumbira kumene mfumu Davide ndi Yonatani mwana wa Sauli anachita pamaso pa Yehova.
8 Nanso, ɔde Saulo mmammarima baanu a na wɔn edin de Armoni ne Mefiboset a na wɔn maame Rispa no yɛ Aia babaa maa wɔn. Ɔsane de Saulo babaa Mikal a na ɔyɛ Adriel a na ɔyɛ Barsilai a ɔfiri Mehola no yere mmammarima baanum no maeɛ.
Ndipo mfumu inatenga Arimoni ndi Mefiboseti, ana aamuna awiri a Rizipa, mwana wamkazi wa Ayiwa, amene anaberekera Sauli pamodzi ndi ana asanu a Merabi mwana wamkazi wa Sauli, amene anabereka Adirieli mwana wa Barizilai Mmeholati.
9 Na Gibeon mmarima no kunkumm wɔn wɔ bepɔ no so wɔ Awurade anim. Enti, nnipa baason no nyinaa, wɔkunkumm wɔn wɔ ɛberɛ a wɔrefiri atokotwa afahyɛ no ase no.
Iye anawapereka kwa anthu a ku Gibiyoni, amene anawapha nawayika pa phiri la Yehova. Onse asanu ndi awiri anafera limodzi. Iwo anaphedwa masiku oyamba kukolola barele.
10 Rispa a ɔyɛ mmarima no mu baanu maame no de ayitoma sɛɛ ɔbotan bi so, tenaa hɔ otwaberɛ no nyinaa mu. Wamma apete ammɛtete wɔn amu no awiaberɛ mu, na anadwo nso, ɔsii nkekaboa ho kwan.
Rizipa mwana wamkazi wa Ayiwa anatenga chiguduli ndi kudziyalira pa mwala (pamene panali mitemboyo). Kuyambira nthawi yoyamba kukolola mpaka pamene mvula inayambanso kugwa, iye sanalole kuti mbalame zikhudze mitemboyo masana kapena nyama zakuthengo usiku.
11 Ɛberɛ a Dawid tee deɛ Rispa a na ɔyɛ Saulo mpena no ayɛ no,
Davide atawuzidwa zimene Rizipa mwana wamkazi wa Ayiwa, mzikazi wa Sauli anachita,
12 ɔkɔɔ nkurɔfoɔ a wɔfiri Yabes Gilead nkyɛn, kɔbisaa wɔn Saulo ne ne babarima Yonatan nnompe ase. (Ɛberɛ a Saulo ne Yonatan totɔɔ ɔko a wɔne Filistifoɔ koeɛ no ano no, Yabes Gileadfoɔ na wɔkɔtasee wɔn amu Filistifoɔ kuro Bet-San abɔntene so.)
anapita kukatenga mafupa a Sauli ndi mwana wake Yonatani kwa anthu a ku Yabesi Giliyadi (iwo anawatenga mwamseri kuchoka pabwalo la ku Beti-Sani, kumene Afilisti anawapachika atapha Sauli ku Gilibowa).
13 Enti, Dawid de Saulo ne Yonatan nnompe baeɛ. Saa ara na ɔde mmarima a Gibeonfoɔ kunkumm wɔn no nnompe baeɛ.
Davide anakatenga mafupa a Sauli ndi mwana wake Yonatani kumeneko ndiponso mafupa otayidwa a amene anaphedwa nawasonkhanitsa pamodzi.
14 Ɔsiee wɔn nyinaa wɔ Saulo agya Kis ɔboda a ɛwɔ kuro Sela a ɛwɔ Benyamin asase so no mu. Ɛno akyi, Onyankopɔn twaa ɛkɔm no so wɔ Israel asase so.
Iwo anayika mafupa a Sauli ndi mwana wake Yonatani mʼmanda a Kisi abambo ake a Sauli ku Zera mʼdziko la Benjamini, ndipo anachita zonse zimene mfumu inalamula. Atachita zimenezi, Mulungu anayankha pemphero lopempherera dzikolo.
15 Bio, Filistifoɔ ne Israel koeɛ. Na ɛberɛ a ɔko no duruu ne mpɔmpɔnsoɔ no, Dawid tɔɔ baha.
Nthawi inanso panali nkhondo pakati pa Afilisti ndi Aisraeli, Davide anapita ndi ankhondo ake kukamenyana ndi Afilisti ndipo iye anatopa kwambiri.
16 Na Yisbi-Benob yɛ abrane no asefoɔ mu baako. Na ne pea mu duru kari boro kilogram mmiɛnsa ne fa, a wɔde akofena foforɔ ahyehyɛ ne ho. Na waka Dawid ahyɛ a anka ɔrebɛkum no.
Ndipo Isibi-Benobi, mmodzi mwa zidzukulu za Rafa, amene mkondo wake unkalemera makilogalamu atatu ndi theka ndipo analinso ndi lupanga latsopano, anati adzapha Davide.
17 Nanso, Seruia babarima Abisai bɛgyee Dawid, na ɔkumm Filistini no. Ɛno akyi, Dawid mmarima no kaa ntam sɛ, “Wo ne yɛn renkɔ ɔko bio. Anyɛ saa a, Israel kanea bɛdum.”
Koma Abisai mwana wa Zeruya anabwera kudzapulumutsa Davide. Iye anamukantha Mfilisitiyo ndi kumupha. Pamenepo asilikali a Davide analumbira kwa iye kuti, “Inu simudzapita nafenso ku nkhondo, kuti nyale ya Israeli isadzazimitsidwe.”
18 Yei akyi, ɔko foforɔ ba de tiaa Filistifoɔ no wɔ Gob. Wɔgu so reko no, Sibekai a ɔfiri Husan, kumm Saf a na ɔno nso yɛ abrane no asefoɔ no bi.
Patapita nthawi, panali nkhondo ina ndi Afilisti ku Gobu. Pa nthawi imeneyo Sibekai Mhusati anapha Safu, mmodzi mwa zidzukulu za Arefai.
19 Ɔko foforɔ bi a wɔkoo wɔ Gob no nso, Yair babarima Elhanan a ɔfiri Betlehem kumm Gatni Goliat nuabarima bi. Na ne pea nsa mu duru bɛyɛ sɛ ntomanwomfoɔ nsadua.
Pa nkhondo inanso ndi Afilisti ku Gobu, Elihanani mwana wa Yaare-Oregimu wa ku Betelehemu anapha Goliati Mgiti, amene anali ndi mkondo ngati ndodo yowombera nsalu.
20 Ɔko bi a ɛsii bio wɔ Gat nso, ɔbarima tetetuo bi a na ɔyɛ nsansia ne nansia a ɔyɛ abrane no aseni no
Pa nkhondo inanso imene inachitika ku Gati panali munthu wina wamtali kwambiri wa zala zisanu ndi chimodzi mʼmanja ndi mʼmapazi ndipo zonse pamodzi zinalipo 24. Iyenso anali chidzukulu cha Rafa.
21 pɛɛ sɛ ɔbu fa Israel so, gu nʼanim ase. Ɔno nso, Dawid nua Simea babarima Yonatan na ɔkumm no.
Pamene iye ankanyoza Aisraeli, Yonatani mwana wa Simea, mʼbale wake wa Davide anamupha.
22 Saa Filistifoɔ abrane baanan yi yɛ Gat abrane no asefoɔ. Na Dawid ne nʼakofoɔ na wɔkunkumm wɔn nyinaa.
Anthu anayi amenewa anali zidzukulu za Rafa ku Gati, ndipo onse anaphedwa ndi Davide ndi ankhondo ake.
