¹Zvino Satani akamukira vaIsiraeri, akakurudzira Dhavhidhi kuti averenge vaIsiraeri.

¹Laj tza quiraj xtaklanquil li raylal saß xbêneb laj Israel. Joßcan nak quixqßue saß xchßôl laj David rajlanquileb chixjunileb laj Israel.

²Dhavhidhi akati kuna Joabhu nokumachinda avanhu, Endai mundoverenga vaIsiraeri kubva paBheerishebha kusvikira paDhani; mudzoke neshoko, ndizive kuwanda kwavo.

²Joßcan nak laj David quixtaklaheb laj Joab ut eb li nequeßtaklan saß xbêneb li tenamit. Quixye reheb: —Ayukex. Ajlahomakeb chak chixjunileb laj Israel. Naticla saß li tenamit Beerseba ut nacuulac toj saß li tenamit Dan. Ut tolêye cue jarubeb chixjunileb re nak tinnau, chan.

³Joabhu akati, Jehovha ngaawedzere vanhu vake runezana pakuwanda kwavo zvino; asi ishe wangu mambo, vose havazi varanda vashe wangu here? Ishe wangu anotsvakireiko chinhu ichi? Achapinzireiko vaIsiraeri pamhosva?

³Ut laj Joab quixye re: —At rey, aß taxak li Dios chiqßuehok reheb chi tâmc chi nabal eb laj Israel. ¿Ma mâcuaß ta biß rubel âcuanquil cuanqueb chixjunileb? ¿Cßaßut nak nasahoß saß âchßôl chirajlanquileb? ¿Cßaßut nak tâqßueheb chi mâcobc eb laj Israel? chan.

⁴Kunyange zvakadaro shoko ramambo rakakurira Joabhu. Zvino Joabhu akaenda, akapota pakati pavaIsiraeri vose, akasvika Jerusaremu.

⁴Abanan li rey quixpuersi laj Joab chixbânunquil. Joßcan nak queßcôeb ut queßnumeß saß chixjunil li naßajej Israel. Tojoßnak queßsukßi cuißchic Jerusalén. Ut laj Joab quixye re li rey David jarubeb chixjunileb li cristian.

⁵Joabhu akarondedzera kuwanda kwavanhu kuna Dhavhidhi. Valsiraeri vose vakasvika zviuru zvinezviuru nezviuru zvinezana zvavanhu vaigona kurwa nomunondo; uye vaJudha vakasvika zviuru zvamazana mana namakumi manomwe vaigona kurwa nomunondo.

⁵Saß chixjunil li naßajej Israel cuanqueb jun millón riqßuin jun ciento mil chi cuînk li naru teßpletik riqßuin chßîchß. Ut cuanqueb ajcuiß câhib ciento riqßuin lajêb xcâcßâl mil chi cuînk aran Judá li naru teßpletik riqßuin chßîchß.

⁶Asi haana kuverenga vaRevhi navaBhenjamini pakati pavo; nekuti shoko ramambo rakanga rakaipa kwazvo kuna Joabhu.

⁸Dhavhidhi akati kuna Mwari, Ndatadza kwazvo zvandaita chinhu ichi; asi zvino bvisai henyu kuipa komuranda wenyu; nekuti ndaita sebenzi kwazvo.

⁸Laj David quitijoc ut quixye re li Dios: —At Kâcuaß, nimla mâc li xinbânu. Nintzßâma châcuu nak tâcuy tâsach taxak lin mâc. Xmâcßaßil innaßleb xinbânu cuiß, chan.

⁹Jehovha akataura naGadhi, muoni waDhavhidhi, akati,

⁹Ut li Kâcuaß quiâtinac riqßuin li profeta Gad, li naqßuehoc xnaßleb laj David ut quixye re:

¹⁰Enda unotaura naDhavhidhi, uti, zvanzi naJehovha, Ndinokuisira zvinhu zvitatu, chizvitsaurira chimwe chazvo, ndikuitire icho.

¹⁰—Tatxic riqßuin laj David ut tâye re, “Joßcaßin xye li Kâcuaß. Tinye âcue bar cuan li oxib chi raylal naru tinbânu. Tâsicß ru saß xyânkeb li oxib li bar cuan tâcuaj lâat tinbânu,” chan li Dios.

¹¹Zvino Gadhi akaenda kuna Dhavhidhi, akati kwaari, Zvanzi naJehovha, Chitsaura chaunoda;

¹¹Laj Gad cô riqßuin laj David ut quixye re: —Joßcaßin xye li Kâcuaß.

¹²makore matatu enzara, kana kuparadzwa navavengi vako mwedzi mitatu, uchidzingwa nomunondo wavavengi vako, kana munondo waJehovha mazuva matatu, ndiro denda panyika, mutumwa waJehovha achiparadza panyika yose yaIsiraeri. Zvino chifunga hako, urangarire mhinduro yandingadzosera kuna iye akandituma.

¹²Tâsicß ru li raylal li tâcuaj lâat. ¿Ma tâcuaj oxib chihab li cueßej saß lâ tenamit? ¿Malaj ut tâcuaj nak teßnumtâk saß âbên li xicß nequeßiloc âcue chiru oxib po? ¿Malaj ut tâcuaj nak tixqßue chak li caki yajel li Kâcuaß chiru oxib cutan nak lix ángel li Kâcuaß tolxcamsiheb li tenamit saß chixjunil li naßajej Israel? Cßoxla chi us cßaßru tâcuaj ut ye cue cßaßru tinye re li ani xtaklan chak cue, chan laj Gad.

¹³Ipapo Dhavhidhi akati kuna Gadhi, Ndiri pakumanikidzwa kukuru; ndiwire hangu zvino muruoko rwaJehovha, nekuti nyasha dzake ihuru, asi ndirege hangu kuwira muruoko rwomunhu.

¹³Laj David quixye: —Kßaxal ra saß inchßôl xban li chßaßajquilal cuanquin cuiß. Kßaxal us nak li Kâcuaß tixqßue chak li raylal saß inbên xban nak kßaxal nim li rusilal. Incßaß nacuaj nak tintßanekß saß rukßeb li xicß nequeßiloc cue, chan laj David.

¹⁴Ipapo Jehovha akatuma denda pakati paIsiraeri; varume vane zviuru zvina makumi manomwe vakafa pakati paIsiraeri.

¹⁴Joßcan nak li Kâcuaß quixtakla li caki yajel saß xbêneb laj Israel ut queßcam lajêb xcâcßâl mil chi cuînk.

¹⁵Mwari akatuma mutumwa Jerusaremu kuzoriparadza; zvino wakati oda kuparadza, Jehovha akatarira, akazvidemba pamusoro pechinhu icho chakaipa, akati kumutumwa akanga achiparadza, Zvino, chidzosa ruoko rwako. Zvino mutumwa waJehovha akanga amire paburiro raOrinani muJebhusi.

¹⁵Ut li Dios quixtakla ajcuiß lix ángel chixsachbal li tenamit Jerusalén. Abanan nak yô chixsachbal ru li tenamit, quiyotßeß xchßôl li Kâcuaß chirilbal li raylal yôqueb chixcßulbal. Quixye re lix ángel: —Tzßakal li xabânu. Mârahobtesiheb chic, chan. Saß li hônal aßan lix ángel li Dios cuan chire li naßajej li narisi cuiß rix li trigo laj Ornán laj jebuseo.

¹⁶Dhavhidhi akatarira, akaona mutumwa waJehovha amire pakati penyika nokudenga, akabata munondo wakavhomorwa muruoko rwake, wakatambanudzwa pamusoro peJerusaremu. Ipapo Dhavhidhi navakuru vakawira pasi nezviso zvavo, vakafuka saga.

¹⁷Ut laj David quixye: —At Kâcuaß, lâin xintaklan rajlanquileb li tenamit. Lâin xinbânun re li mâusilal aßin. Lâin cuan inmâc. Eb li tenamit aßin, li chanchaneb carner, mâcßaßeb xmâc. Nintzßâma châcuu nak tâqßue li raylal aßin saß inbên lâin ut saß xbêneb li cualal incßajol. Mâqßue saß xbêneb lâ tenamit, chan.

¹⁸Ipapo mutumwa waJehovha akaraira Gadhi kuti audze Dhavhidhi kuti Dhavhidhi akwire avakire Jehovha aritari paburiro raOrinani muJebhusi.
