Kronika 1 19
1 Esi ɣeyiɣiawo va le yiyim la, Amonitɔwo ƒe fia, Nahas, ku eye Via ŋutsu ɖu fia ɖe eteƒe.
Kwasekusithi emva kwalokho uNahashi inkosi yamaAmoni wafa, indodana yakhe yasisiba yinkosi esikhundleni sakhe.
2 David ɖo be, “Manyo dɔme na Hanun, Nahas ƒe vi elabena fofoa nyo dɔme nam.” Ale David dɔ amewo ɖa be woado babaa na Hanun le fofoa ƒe ku ta. Esi David ƒe amewo va tu Hanun le Amonitɔwo ƒe anyigba dzi be yewoado babaa nɛ la,
UDavida wasesithi: Ngizamenzela umusa uHanuni indodana kaNahashi, ngoba uyise wangenzela umusa. UDavida wasethuma izithunywa ukuyamduduza ngoyise. Izinceku zikaDavida zasezifika elizweni labantwana bakoAmoni kuHanuni ukumduduza.
3 Amonitɔwo ƒe amegãwo gblɔ na Hanun be, “Ɖe nèbu be David le bubu dem ye fofo ŋu to ame siawo dɔdɔ ɖe gbɔwò be woado babaa na wò mea? Menye ɖe ame siawo va be yewoatsa ŋku le anyigba la dzi eye yewoaho aʋa ɖe eŋu oa?”
Kodwa iziphathamandla zabantwana bakoAmoni zathi kuHanuni: Kambe uDavida uyamhlonipha uyihlo emehlweni akho, ngoba ethume abaduduzi kuwe? Izinceku zakhe kazizanga kuwe yini ukuphenya lokuchitha lokuhlola ilizwe?
4 Nu sia na Fia Hanun lé Fia David ƒe amewo. Ena wolũ ge na wo eye wolã woƒe awuwo le woƒe agɔnu ale be woɖe amama ɖe agɔnu eye wòdo mɔ wo.
Ngakho uHanuni wathatha izinceku zikaDavida wazigela waquma izembatho zazo kungxenye kuze kube sezibunu zazo, waziyekela zahamba.
5 Ke esi wova gblɔ ŋutsuawo ŋu nya na David la, edɔ amewo woɖakpe ŋutsuawo kple gbedeasi be woatsi Yeriko va se ɖe esime woƒe ge nato elabena wodo ŋukpe wo ŋutɔ.
Basebehamba bamtshela uDavida ngalawomadoda; wasethuma ukuwahlangabeza, ngoba amadoda ayelenhloni kakhulu; inkosi yasisithi: Hlalani eJeriko zize zihlume izindevu zenu, beselibuya.
6 Esi Amonitɔwo kpɔ be yewozu David ƒe ketɔwo la, Hanun kple Amonitɔwo tsɔ klosaloga kilogram akpe blaetɔ̃ vɔ ade be woaɖada aʋatasiaɖamwo kple wo dolawo tso Aram Naharaim, Aram Maaka kple Zoba.
Abantwana bakoAmoni sebebonile ukuthi sebelevumba kuDavida, uHanuni labantwana bakoAmoni bathumela amathalenta esiliva ayinkulungwane ukuziqhatshela izinqola labagadi bamabhiza eMesopotamiya leSiriya-Mahaka leZoba.
7 Woda tasiaɖam akpe blaetɔ̃-vɔ-eve kple wo dolawo. Nenema ke wotsɔ Maaka fia kple eƒe aʋakɔ blibo la, ame siwo va ƒu asaɖa anyi ɖe Medeba gbɔ, esime woyɔ Amonitɔwo ƒo ƒu tso woƒe duwo me eye wodo yi aʋakpeƒe.
Basebeziqhatshela inqola ezizinkulungwane ezingamatshumi amathathu lambili lenkosi yeMahaka labantu bayo; basebesiza bamisa inkamba phambi kweMedeba; abantwana bakoAmoni basebebuthana bevela emizini yabo, beza empini.
8 Esi David se nya sia la, eɖo Yoab kple aʋakɔ blibo la ɖa.
UDavida esezwile wathuma uJowabi lebutho lonke lamaqhawe.
9 Amonitɔwo do go va woƒe dua ƒe agbo nu hena aʋawɔwɔ, eye fia siwo va la le aʋagbedzi wo tɔ wo tɔe.
Abantwana bakoAmoni basebephuma bahlela impi esangweni lomuzi, lamakhosi ayezile ayewodwa egangeni.
10 Yoab kpɔ be wodze aʋa ɖe ye ŋgɔ kple ye megbe siaa eya ta etia Israel ƒe asrafo siwo bi ɖe aʋawɔwɔ me eye wòna woɖakpe aʋa kple Aramtɔwo.
UJowabi esebonile ukuthi impondo zebutho zimelene laye ngaphambili langemuva, wakhetha kuwo wonke umkhethwa koIsrayeli, wabahlela ukumelana lamaSiriya.
11 Ena akpa evelia si nɔ nɔvia Abisai ƒe kpɔkplɔ te la kpe aʋa kple Amonitɔwo.
Labaseleyo babantu wabanikela esandleni sikaAbishayi umfowabo; basebezihlela ukumelana labantwana bakoAmoni.
12 Yoab gblɔ na nɔvia be, “Ne Aramtɔwo sẽ nam akpa la, nàva kpe ɖe ŋunye, ke ne Amonitɔwo sẽ na wò akpa la, mava kpe ɖe ŋuwò.
Wasesithi: Uba amaSiriya engikhulela, uzakuba lusizo lwami; kodwa uba abantwana bakoAmoni bekukhulela, ngizakusiza.
13 “Lé dzi ɖe ƒo, eye na míawɔ aʋa la kalẽtɔe na míaƒe dukɔ kple míaƒe Mawu la ƒe duwo. Yehowa awɔ nu si nyo le eŋkume.”
Bana lesibindi, siziqinise ngenxa yabantu bakithi langenxa yemizi kaNkulunkulu wethu; leNkosi kayenze okuhle emehlweni ayo.
14 Tete Yoab kple eƒe aʋakɔwo lũ ɖe Aramtɔwo dzi be woakpe aʋa kpli wo eye Aramtɔwo si le wo nu.
UJowabi labantu ababelaye basebesondela phambi kwamaSiriya ukuya empini; asebaleka phambi kwakhe.
15 Esi Amonitɔwo kpɔ be Aramtɔwo nɔ sisim la, woawo hã lé du tsɔ le nɔvia Abisai ŋgɔ eye woɖage ɖe du la me eya ta Yoab trɔ dzo yi Yerusalem.
Abantwana bakoAmoni sebebona ukuthi amaSiriya ayabaleka, babaleka labo phambi kukaAbishayi umfowabo, bangena emzini. UJowabi wasengena eJerusalema.
16 Esime Aramtɔwo kpɔ be Israelviwo ɖu yewo dzi la, wodɔ amewo be woadi aʋawɔla bubuwo tso Ufrates tɔsisi la godo eye wonɔ Sofak, Fia Hadadezer ƒe aʋafia gã ƒe kpɔkplɔ te.
AmaSiriya esebonile ukuthi atshayiwe phambi kukaIsrayeli athuma izithunywa akhupha amaSiriya ayengaphetsheya komfula. LoShofaki induna yebutho likaHadadezeri wayephambi kwawo.
17 Esi wogblɔ nya sia na David la, eƒo Israel blibo la nu ƒu, tso Yɔdan eye wodze aʋa ɖe wo ŋu. David ho aʋa ɖe Aramtɔwo ŋu eye Aramtɔwo wɔ aʋa kplii.
Esetsheliwe uDavida, wabuthanisa uIsrayeli wonke, wachapha iJordani, wafika kibo, wahlela ibutho limelene lawo. UDavida esehlele impi ukumelana lamaSiriya, alwa laye.
18 Ke Aramtɔwo si le Israel nu eye David wu woƒe tasiaɖamŋusɔdola akpe adre kple asrafo afɔzɔla akpe blaene. Ewu woƒe aʋafia Sofak hã.
Kodwa amaSiriya abaleka phambi kukaIsrayeli; uDavida wasebulala kumaSiriya abezinqola abazinkulungwane eziyisikhombisa, lamadoda ahamba ngenyawo azinkulungwane ezingamatshumi amane, wabulala loShofaki induna yebutho.
19 Esi Hadadezer ƒe amewo kpɔ be Israel si yewo la, wowɔ ŋutifafa kple David eye wozu etenɔlawo. Tso esia dzi la, Aramtɔwo megakpe ɖe Amonviwo ŋu le woƒe aʋawɔwɔ me kpɔ o.
Izinceku zikaHadadezeri sezibonile ukuthi zitshayiwe phambi kukaIsrayeli, zenza ukuthula loDavida, zamsebenzela. Ngakho amaSiriya kawafunanga ukusiza abantwana bakoAmoni futhi.
