uDavide namagama amadodana akhe
1Kwakukhona ukulwa isikhathi eside phakathi kwendlu kaSawule nendlu kaDavide, kepha uDavide waqhubeka eba namandla ngokuba namandla, nendlu kaSawule yaya ngokuya iba buthaka.
2UDavide wazalelwa amadodana eHebroni, izibulo lakhe lalingu-Amnoni ku-Ahinohama waseJizreyeli;
3eyesibili yayinguKileyabi ka-Abigayili umkaNabali waseKarmeli; eyesithathu yayingu-Abisalomu indodana kaMagaga indodakazi kaTalimayi inkosi yaseGeshuri;
4Eyesine yayingu-Adoniya indodana kaHagiti; eyesihlanu yayinguShefathiya indodana ka-Abitali;
5eyesithupha yayinguJitreyamu ku-Egila umkaDavide. Bazalelwa uDavide eHebroni.
6Kwathi kukhona ukulwa phakathi kwendlu kaSawule nendlu kaDavide, u-Abineri waziqinisa endlini kaSawule.
7USawule wayenesancinza igama lakhe linguRispa indodakazi ka-Aya; u-Ishi Bosheti wathi ku-Abineri: “Ungeneleni nesancinza sikababa na?
8U-Abineri wathukuthela kakhulu ngamazwi ka-Ishi Bosheti, wathi: “Ngiyikhanda lenja yini elinomusa kuJuda namuhla endlini kaSawule uyihlo, nakubafowabo, nakubangane bakhe, kangikophulanga na? esandleni sikaDavide ukuthi ungimangalele namuhla ngesikweleti ngalo wesifazane na?
9UNkulunkulu wenze njalo ku-Abineri, enezele futhi, ngaphandle kokuthi uJehova afunga kuDavide ngesifungo, ngiyakwenza kanjalo kuye;
10ukuguqula umbuso wendlu kaSawule, kumiswe isihlalo sobukhosi sikaDavide phezu kuka-Israyeli naphezu kukaJuda, kusukela kwaDani kuze kufike eBeri Sheba.
11Wayengenakumphendula u-Abineri nelinye izwi, ngokuba wayemesaba.
12UAbhineri wasethuma izithunywa kuDavida esikhundleni sakhe ukuthi: Ngelikabani ilizwe? futhi uthi: Yenza isivumelwano sakho nami; futhi bheka, isandla sami siyakuba nawe ukuletha wonke u-Israyeli kuwe.
13Wathi: “Kuhle; Ngizokwenza isivumelwano nawe, kodwa yinye into engiyibiza kuwe, okungukuthi: Ngeke ububone ubuso bami, uma uletha kuqala uMikhali indodakazi kaSawule, lapho uzobona ubuso bami.
14UDavida wasethuma izithunywa kuIshiboshethi indodana kaSawuli ukuthi: Khulula umkami uMikhali engamgana ngamajwabu ayikhulu amaFilisti.
15U-Ishi Bosheti wayesethumela wamthatha kumyeni wakhe uPalitiyeli indodana kaLayishi.
16Indoda yakhe yahamba naye ikhala emva kwakhe kwaze kwaba seBahurimi. U-Abineri wayesethi kuye: “Hamba, ubuye.” Wabuya.
17U-Abineri wakhuluma kumalunga akwa-Israyeli, wathi: “Benimfuna uDavide ukuba abe yinkosi phezu kwenu;
18Kwenzeni manje, ngokuba uJehova wakhuluma ngoDavide, wathi: “Ngesandla sikaDavide inceku yami ngiyakophula abantu bami u-Israyeli esandleni samaFilisti nasesandleni sazo zonke izitha zabo.
19U-Abineri naye wakhuluma ezindlebeni zikaBenjamini, u-Abineri naye waya ukukhuluma ezindlebeni zikaDavide eHebroni konke okwakukuhle ku-Israyeli nakuyo yonke indlu yakwaBenjamini.
20U-Abineri wayesefika kuDavide eHebroni namadoda angamashumi amabili kanye naye. UDavide walungisela u-Abineri namadoda ayenaye ukudla.
21U-Abineri wayesethi kuDavide: “Ngiyakusuka, ngihambe ngibuthele wonke u-Israyeli enkosini yami, inkosi, benze isivumelwano nawe, ubuse phezu kwakho konke okufiswa yinhliziyo yakho. UDavide wammukisa u-Abineri; wahamba ngokuthula.
22Bheka, izinceku zikaDavide noJowabe zafika zivela ekuxosheni iviyo, zeza nempango enkulu, kepha u-Abineri wayengekho kuDavide eHebroni; ngoba wammukisa, wahamba ngokuthula.
23Lapho uJowabe lebutho lonke elalilaye sebefikile, bamtshela uJowabi bathi: UAbhineri indodana kaNeri wafika enkosini, yammukisa, yahamba ngokuthula.
24UJowabe wayesengena enkosini, wathi: “Wenzeni na? bheka, u-Abineri usefikile kuwe; umxosheleni, akasekho na?
25Uyamazi u-Abineri indodana kaNeri ukuthi uze ukukukhohlisa nokwazi ukuphuma kwakho nokungena kwakho nokwazi konke okwenzayo.
26UJowabe esephumile kuDavide, wathuma izithunywa ukuba zilandele u-Abineri, zambuyisa emgodini waseSira; kepha uDavide ubengakwazi lokho.
27U-Abineri esebuyele eHebroni, uJowabe wamthathela eceleni esangweni ukuba akhulume naye ngasese, wamgwaza lapho esiswini, wafa ngenxa yegazi lika-Asaheli umfowabo.
28UDavide esezwile ngasemuva wathi: “Mina nombuso wami asinacala kuze kube phakade phambi kukaJehova ngegazi lika-Abineri indodana kaNeri.”
29malibe phezu kwekhanda likaJowabe naphezu kwayo yonke indlu kayise; futhi makungabikho muntu ophuma endlini kaJowabe ocucuzayo noma onochoko noma oncike ngodondolo noma owela enkembeni noma oswela isinkwa.
30UJowabe nomfowabo u-Abishayi bambulala u-Abineri, ngokuba wayebulele umfowabo u-Asaheli empini eGibeyoni.
31UDavide wayesethi kuJowabe nakubantu bonke ababe naye: “Kklebhulani izingubo zenu, nibhince indwangu yamasaka, nilile phambi kuka-Abineri. Inkosi uDavide yalandela umgoqo.
32Bammbela u-Abineri eHebroni; inkosi yasiphakamisa izwi layo, yakhala ethuneni lika-Abineri; bakhala bonke abantu.
33Inkosi yamlilela u-Abineri, yathi: “U-Abineri wafa njengesiwula na?”
34Izandla zakho bezingaboshiwe, nezinyawo zakho bezingafakwanga ngamaketanga; njengokuwa komuntu phambi kwababi, niwile kanjalo nina. Futhi bonke abantu baphinde bamkhalela.
35Kwathi bonke abantu beza ukumnika uDavida ukudla ukudla kusesemini, uDavida wafunga wathi: UNkulunkulu makenze njalo kimi, njalo, uba nginambitha isinkwa loba yini enye lize litshone ilanga.
36Bonke abantu bakubona, kwaba kuhle emehlweni abo, ngokuba konke ekwenzayo inkosi kwaba kuhle emehlweni abantu bonke.
37Ngoba sonke isizwe loIsrayeli wonke basebebona ngalolosuku ukuthi kwakungeyona indaba yenkosi ukubulala uAbhineri indodana kaNeri.
38Inkosi yasisithi ezincekwini zayo: Kalazi yini ukuthi lamuhla kuwile isikhulu lendoda enkulu kwaIsrayeli?
39Futhi ngibuthakathaka namuhla, noma ngagcotshwa njengenkosi; lawa madoda, amadodana kaSeruya, alukhuni kimi; uJehova uyakubuyisela umenzi wobubi njengobubi bakhe.
