¹Zvino shure kwaizvozvo Dhavhidhi wakabvunza Jehovha akati, Ndokwira kune rimwe guta raJudha here? Jehovha akati, Kwira. Dhavhidhi akati, Ndokwira kuneripi? Iye akati, Hebhuroni.

¹Markaas dabadeed Daa'uud baa Rabbiga wax weyddiiyey, oo yidhi, Magaalooyinka dalka Yahuudah middood ma u kacaa? Rabbiguna wuxuu ku yidhi, Haah, u kac. Markaasaa Daa'uud yidhi, Xaggee baan u kacaa? Isna wuxuu yidhi, Xebroon tag.

²Naizvozvo Dhavhidhi akakwirako, navakadzi vake vaviriwo, vana Ahinowami muJezereeri, naAbhigairi, mukadzi waNabhari muKarimeri.

²Saas daraaddeed Daa'uud halkaasuu u kacay, oo labadiisii naagoodna way raaceen, kuwaas oo ahaa Axiinocam tii reer Yesreceel, iyo Abiigayil oo u dhaxday Naabaal kii reer Karmel.

³Dhavhidhi akakwirawo navanhu vake vaiva naye, mumwe nomumwe neimba yake, vakandogara pamaguta eHebhuroni.

³Oo raggiisii isaga la jirayna Daa'uud wuu kaxaystay, iyadoo nin waluba reerkiisii wato; oo waxay degeen magaalooyinkii Xebroon.

⁴Varume vaJudha vakauya vakazodza Dhavhidhi, kuti ave mambo weimba yaJudha.

⁴Markaasaa dadkii dalka Yahuudah yimid, oo halkaasay Daa'uud ugu subkeen inuu ahaado boqor u taliya dalka Yahuudah.

⁵Dhavhidhi akatuma nhume kuvarume vaJabheshiGiriyadhi, akati kwavari, Muropafadzwe naJehovha, zvamakaitira ishe wenyu Sauro chinhu ichi chakanaka, mukamuviga.

⁵Markaasaa Daa'uud wargeeyayaal u diray dadkii reer Yaabeesh Gilecaad, oo ku yidhi, Rabbigu ha idin barakeeyo, waayo, waad u roonaateen oo aasteen sayidkiinnii Saa'uul ahaa.

⁶Zvino Jehovha ngaakuitireiwo zvakanaka nechokwadi; neniwo ndichakuitirai zvakanaka, zvamakaita izvozvi.

⁶Haddaba Rabbigu ha idiin roonaado oo runtana ha idin tuso; oo anna waan idiinka abaal gudi doonaa roonaantaas, maxaa yeelay, idinku waxaas baad samayseen.

⁷Naizvozvo zvino, maoko enyu ngaave nesimba, muve noumhare; nekuti Sauro ishe wenyu wakafa, zvino veimba yaJudha vakandizodza, kuti ndive mambo wavo.

⁷Haddaba gacmihiinnu ha xoogaysteen, oo idinna xoog yeesha, waayo, sayidkiinnii Saa'uul waa dhintay, oo reer Yahuudahna anigay ii subkeen inaan u ahaado boqor u taliya.

⁸Zvino Abhineri, mwanakomana waNeri, mukuru wehondo yaSauro, wakange atora Ishibhosheti, mwanakomana waSauro, akamuisa Mahanaimu;

⁸Haddaba Abneer oo ahaa ina Neer, oo Saa'uul ciidankiisa sirkaal u ahaa ayaa soo kaxaystay Iishboshed oo ahaa ina Saa'uul, oo wuxuu u soo gudbiyey xagga Maxanayim;

⁹akamuita mambo weGiriyadhi, nowavaAshuri, noweJezereeri, nowaEfuremu, nowaBhenjamini, nowavaIsiraeri vose.

⁹oo wuxuu boqor uga dhigay reer Gilecaad, iyo reer Ashuur, iyo Yesreceel, iyo reer Efrayim, iyo Benyaamiin, iyo reer binu Israa'iil oo dhan.

¹⁰(Ishibhosheti, mwanakomana waSauro, wakange ava namakore makumi mana nguva yokutanga kwake kubata ushe hwaIsiraeri, akabata ushe makore maviri). Asi veimba yaJudha vakatevera Dhavhidhi.

¹⁰(Oo Iishboshed oo ahaa ina Saa'uul afartan sannadood buu jiray markii uu bilaabay inuu boqor u noqdo reer binu Israa'iil, oo wuxuuna boqor u ahaa laba sannadood.) Laakiinse reer Yahuudah waxay raaceen Daa'uud.

¹¹Nguva yakabata Dhavhidhi ushe bweimba yaJudha paHebhuroni aiva makore manomwe nemwedzi mitanhatu.

¹¹Oo wakhtigii Daa'uud Xebroon boqorka ugu ahaa reer Yahuudah wuxuu ahaa toddoba sannadood iyo lix bilood.

¹²Zvino Abhineri, mwanakomana waNeri, navaranda valshibhosheti, mwanakomana waSauro, vakabva Mahanaimu, vakaenda Gibhioni.

¹²Markaasaa Abneer oo ahaa ina Neer, iyo addoommadii Iishboshed ina Saa'uul, Maxanayim ka soo baxeen, oo waxay tageen Gibecoon.

¹³NaJoabhu, mwanakomana waZeruya, navaranda vaDhavhidhi vakabudawo, vakasangana navo padziva reGibhiyoni; vakagara pasi, vamwe nechokuno kwedziva, vamwe nechemhiri kwedziva.

¹³Kolkaasaa Yoo'aab oo ay Seruuyaah dhashay, iyo addoommadii Daa'uud soo baxeen, oo waxay ku wada kulmeen balligii Gibecoon agtiisa; oo iyana qolo waxay balliga ka fadhiisatay dhinac, qoladii kalena waxay balliga ka fadhiisteen dhinacii kale.

¹⁴Abhineri akati kuna Joabhu, Majaya ngaasimuke, atambe pamberi pedu. Joabhu akati, Ngavasimuke havo.

¹⁴Markaasaa Abneer wuxuu Yoo'aab ku yidhi, Waan ku baryayaaye, ragga dhallinyarada ahu ha kaceen oo horteenna ha ku cayaareen. Yoo'aabna wuxuu yidhi, Waa yahay ee ha kaceen.

¹⁵Ipapo vakasimuka, vakaenda namapoka; gumi navaviri kurutivi rwaBhenjamini naIshibhosheti, mwanakomana waSauro, uye gumi navaviri vavaranda vaDhavhidhi.

¹⁵Markaasay kaceen oo tiro ku gudbeen; oo waxay ahaayeen laba iyo toban reer Benyaamiin ah, oo ka socda xaggii Iishboshed oo ahaa ina Saa'uul, iyo laba iyo toban ka socda addoommadii Daa'uud.

¹⁶Mumwe nomumwe akabata musoro wowakatarisana naye, vakabayana neminondo kunhivi dzavo, naizvozvo vakawira pasi pamwechete; naizvozvo nzvimbo iyo yakanzi Herikatiharuzimi, iri paGibhiyoni.

¹⁶Oo mid waluba ninkiisii ayuu madaxa qabsaday, oo seeftiisii ayuu dhinaca ka daray midkii uu haystay. Sidaasay dhammaantood u wada dhaceen. Saas aawadeed meeshaas oo Gibecoon ku taal waxaa loo baxshay Xelqad Hasuriim.

¹⁷Kurwa kukanyanya kwazvo zuva iro; Abhineri navarume vaIsiraeri vakakundwa navaranda vaDhavhidhi.

¹⁷Oo dagaalkiina aad buu u kululaaday maalintaas; oo waxaa laga adkaaday Abneer, iyo raggii reer binu Israa'iil, waxaana ka reeyey addoommadii Daa'uud.

¹⁸Vanakomana vatatu vaZeruya vakanga varipo, vana Joabhu, naAbhishai, naAshaheri; Ashaheri waigona kumhanya sechengu.

¹⁸Oo saddexdii wiil ee ay Seruuyaah dhashay halkaas ayay wada joogeen, kuwaasoo ahaa Yoo'aab iyo Abiishay iyo Casaaheel. Casaaheelna wuxuu u cago fududaa sida cawsha duurka.

¹⁹Ashaheri akateverera Abhineri; zvino pakumhanya kwake haana kutsaukira kurudyi kana kuruboshwe pakuteverera Abhineri.

¹⁹Markaasaa Casaaheel wuxuu eryaday Abneer, oo intuu Abneer eryanayayna uma uu leexan midig iyo bidix toona.

²⁰Abhineri akacheuka, akati, Ndiwe Ashaheri here? Akapindura, akati, Ndini.

²⁰Markaasaa Abneer gadaashiisa dhugtay, oo wuxuu yidhi, War ma adigii baa, Casaaheelow? Oo isna wuxuu ugu jawaabay, Haah, waa anigii.

²¹Abhineri akati kwaari, Tsaukira hako kurudyi kana kuruboshe, ubate hako rimwe ramajaya, utore nhumbi dzake dzokurwa nadzo. Asi Ashaheri wakaramba kutsauka pakumuteverera.

²¹Markaasaa Abneer wuxuu ku yidhi, War midigta ama bidixda u leexo, oo ragga dhallinyarada ah midkood qabso, oo ka soo qaado hubkiisa dagaalka. Laakiinse Casaaheel wuu diiday inuu isaga ka leexdo.

²²Abhineri akatizve kuna Ashaheri, Tsauka hako pakunditeverera; ndichakuurayireiko? Ndingazondoonana sei naJoabhu mukuru wako?

²²Markaasaa Abneer haddana Casaaheel ku yidhi, War ha i eryane, gees iiga leexo; maxaan dhulka kuugu dhufanayaa? Haddaba sidee baan wejiga u siin karayaa walaalkaa Yoo'aab?

²³Asi wakaramba kutsauka; naizvozvo Abhineri wakamubaya nomudumbu nechireya chepfumo, pfumo rikabuda neseri kwake; akawira pasi ipapo, akafirapo; zvino vanhu vose vakati vachisvika pakanga pawira Ashaheri pasi pakufa kwake, vakamira.

²³Habase yeeshee wuu diiday inuu gees uga leexdo; sidaas daraaddeed Abneer waranka dabadiisii ayuu caloosha kaga dhuftay, warankiina dib buu uga mudhbaxay; markaasuu halkaas ku dhacay, oo isla meeshaasuu ku dhintay; oo in alla intii soo gaadhay meeshii Casaaheel ku dhacay oo ku dhintay way wada istaageen.

²⁴Asi Joabhu naAbhishai vakateverera Abhineri, zuva rikavira pakusvika kwavo pachikomo cheAma, vaiva pamberi peGiya panzira yerenje inoenda Gibhiyoni.

²⁴Laakiinse Yoo'aab iyo Abiishay waxay eryadeen Abneer; oo qorraxdiina way dhacday markii ay yimaadeen buurtii Ammaah oo ku hor taal Giyax ee ku ag taal waddada cidlada Gibecoon.

²⁵Zvino vana vaBhenjamini vakaungana kuzotevera Abhineri, vakaita boka rimwe, vakamira pamusoro pechikomo,

²⁵Markaasaa reer Benyaamiin dhammaantood soo wada urureen oo Abneer soo daba galeen, oo waxay noqdeen guuto keliya, markaasay buur isku dul taageen.

²⁶Abhineri akashevedzera kuna Joabhu akati, Ko munondo ucharamba uchingoparadza nokusingaperi here? Hauzivi kuti zvichavava pakupedzisira here? Uchanonoka kusvikira rinhiko kuraira vanhu kuti vadzoke pakuteverera hama dzavo?

²⁶Dabadeedna Abneer wuxuu u dhawaaqay Yoo'aab, oo ku yidhi, War seeftu miyey weligeed baabbi'inaysaa? Ugudambaystase inay qadhaadh noqonayso sow ma ogid? Haddaba ilaa goormay noqonaysaa markaad dadka kala hadlayso inay ka hadhaan walaalahooda ay eryanayaan?

²⁷Joabhu akati, NaMwari mupenyu, dai usina kutaura, zvirokwazvo vanhu vangadai varega mangwana kuteverera mumwe nomumwe hama yake.

²⁷Markaasaa Yoo'aab wuxuu yidhi, Rabbiga noloshiisaan ku dhaartaye, haddaadan hadlin, hubaal dadku subaxda waa iska tegi lahaa oo ninnaba walaalkiis ma eryadeen.

²⁸Naizvozvo Joabhu akaridza hwamanda, vanhu vose vakamira, vakarega kuzoteverera Isiraeri, vakasazorwazve.

²⁸Sidaas daraaddeed Yoo'aab buunkii buu afuufay, oo dadkii oo dhammu way wada istaageen, oo mar dambe reer binu Israa'iilna ma ayan eryan, kol kalena ma ay diririn.

²⁹Abhineri navanhu vake vakagura neArabha usiku uhwo hwose, vakayambuka Joridhani, vakagura neBhitironi yose, vakasvika Mahanaimu.

²⁹Oo Abneer iyo raggiisiina habeenkii oo dhan ayay sii dhex guuraynayeen Caraabaah; wayna ka gudbeen Webi Urdun, oo Bitroon oo dhanna way dhex mareen, oo waxay yimaadeen Maxanayim.

³⁰Ipapo Joabhu akadzoka pakuteverera Abhineri; zvino wakati aunganidza vanhu vose, varume vane gumi navapfumbamwe naAshaheri vakashaikwa kuvaranda vaDhavhidhi.

³⁰Oo Yoo'aabna wuu ka noqday eryadkii uu Abneer eryanayay; oo markuu dadkii oo dhan soo urursaday, waxaa addoommadii Daa'uud ka dhinnaaday sagaal iyo toban nin iyo Casaaheel.

³¹Asi varanda vaDhavhidhi vakanga vauraya varume vana mazana matatu namakumi matatu vavaBhenjamini navarume vaAbhineri.

³¹Laakiinse addoommadii Daa'uud wax bay reer Benyaamiin iyo raggii Abneer ka laayeen, oo waxaa ka dhintay saddex boqol iyo lixdan nin.Markaasay Casaaheel qaadeen oo ku aaseen qabrigii aabbihiis, oo ku yiil Beytlaxam. Oo Yoo'aab iyo raggiisiina habeenkii oo dhan ayay guureeyeen oo waxaa waagu ugu beryay Xebroon.

³²Vakasimudza Ashaheri, vakandomuviga muhwiro hwababa vake, hwaiva paBheterehemu. Joabhu navanhu vake vakafamba usiku hwose, utonga hwukatsvuka pakusvika kwavo paHebhuroni.

³²Markaasay Casaaheel qaadeen oo ku aaseen qabrigii aabbihiis, oo ku yiil Beytlaxam. Oo Yoo'aab iyo raggiisiina habeenkii oo dhan ayay guureeyeen oo waxaa waagu ugu beryay Xebroon.
