Abarwanyi b’intwari biteranira kwa Dawidi i Zikilagi

Abagabo bagumye bimukira kwa Dawidi akiri impunzi: Ababenyamini bakoresha amaboko yompi bo mu muryango wa Sauli nyene, Abagadi bafise mu maso nk'ah'intare bogeye Yorodani yuzuye, abagabo ba Isakari bari bazi ibihe. I Heburoni imiryango ishika ari benshi, ivuga ko Data wabo amufasha, maze Isirayeli ikanezerwa.

Igice 12.

Aba ni bo bantu baje kwa Dawidi i Zikilagi igihe akiri mu kubuzwa kugaragara imbere ya Sauli mwene Kishi—abarwanyi b’intwari bamufashije mu ntambara. Bari bitwaje imiheto, bashobora guterana amabuye canke kurasa imyampi n’ukuboko kw’iburyo canke kw’ibumoso—Ababenyamini, incuti za Sauli. Ahiyezeri umukuru, hanyuma Yowashi, abahungu ba Shemaha w’i Gibeya; Yeziyeli na Peleti, abahungu ba Azimaveti; Beraka; Yehu w’i Anatoti; Ishimaya w’i Gibeyoni, umurwanyi w’intwari muri ba mirongo itatu, umukuru w’abo mirongo itatu; Yeremiya, Yahaziyeli, Yohanani, Yozabadi w’i Gedera; Eluzayi, Yerimoti, Beyaliya, Shemariya, na Shefatiya Umuharufu; Elikana, Ishiya, Azareli, Yowezeri, na Yashobeyamu, Abakorahi; na Yowela na Zebadiya, abahungu ba Yerohamu w’i Gedori.

Abagadi bamwebamwe baracika baja kwa Dawidi mu gihome co mu bugaragwa—abarwanyi b’intwari bamenyerejwe intambara, bahanga mu kuvyerekeza inkinzo n’icumu, mu maso basa n’intambwe, baroha nk’ingeregere ku misozi. Ezeri yari umukuru, Obadiya aba uwa kabiri, Eliyabu uwa gatatu, Mishimana uwa kane, Yeremiya uwa gatanu, Atayi uwa gatandatu, Eliyeli uwa karindwi, Yohanani uwa munani, Elizabadi uwa cenda, Yeremiya uwa cumi, Makibanayi uwa cumi n’umwe. Abo Bagadi bari abakuru b’ingabo; uwo hasi kurusha abandi yangana n’abantu ijana, na we aruta bose yangana n’igihumbi. Aba ni bo bantu bajabutse Yorodani mu kwezi kwa mbere, igihe kwari kuhembagaje inkombe zako zose, maze barukana abari mu bibaya vyose, abo mu buseruko n’abo mu burengero.

Abantu bamwebamwe bo mu bwoko bwa Benyamini na Yuda na bo baraje kwa Dawidi mu gihome. Dawidi arasohoka kubasanganira, ababwira ati: “Nimba muje iwanje mu mahoro kugira mumfashe, umutima wanje uzifatanya namwe; ariko nimba muje kungambanira ku bansi banje, naho amaboko yanje adafise igikorwa ciza, Imana ya ba sogokuruza bacu nibivibone maze ibacire urubanza.” Maze Mpwemu wa Data wa twese arambika Amasayi, umukuru w’abo mirongo itatu, avuga ati: “Turi abawe, Dawidi! Turi kumwe nawe, mwene Yese! Amahoro, amahoro kuri wewe, amahoro ku bakwunganira, kuko Data wawe akwunganira.” Dawidi arabakira, maze arabagira abakuru b’abasuma biwe.

Abantu bamwebamwe bo mu bwoko bwa Manase baracika baja kwa Dawidi igihe yaja kurwanya Sauli ari kumwe n’Abafilisitiya. Mugabo Dawidi n’abantu biwe ntibafashije Abafilisitiya—bamaze kugisha inama, abakuru b’Abafilisitiya barirukana Dawidi, bavuga bati: “Azocika aje kuri shebuja Sauli, maze bidutwaye imitwe yacu.” Agiye i Zikilagi, aba bo mu bwoko bwa Manase ni bo bamucikiyeko: Adina, Yozabadi, Yediyayeli, Mikayeli, Yozabadi, Elihu, Ziletayi—abakuru b’ibihumbi vya Manase. Barafashije Dawidi mu kurwanya abasuma, kuko bose bari abarwanyi b’intwari, maze baba abakuru mu ngabo ziwe. Imisi yose abantu bariko baraza gufasha Dawidi, gushika afise ingabo nini nk’iz’ingabo za Data wa twese.

Iyi ni yo myenge y’abantu bitwaje intwaro z’intambara baje kwa Dawidi i Heburoni kugira bamushikirize ubwami bwa Sauli, nk’uko Data wa twese yari yavuze, abo mu bwoko bwa Yuda, bitwaje inkinzo n’icumu—ibihumbi bitandatu na magana umunani bitwaje intwaro z’intambara; abo mu bwoko bwa Simeyoni, abarwanyi b’intwari biteguriye intambara—ibihumbi indwi n’ijana; abo mu bwoko bwa Lewi—ibihumbi bine na magana atandatu, hamwe na Yehoyada, umukuru w’umuryango wa Aroni, n’abantu ibihumbi bitatu na magana indwi kumwe na we, na Zadoki, umusore w’intwari w’umurwanyi, hamwe n’abakuru mirongo ibiri na babiri bo mu muryango wiwe. Abo mu bwoko bwa Benyamini, incuti za Sauli—ibihumbi bitatu; benshi muri bo bari bakirinze inzu ya Sauli, abo mu bwoko bwa Efurayimu—ibihumbi mirongo ibiri na magana umunani, abarwanyi b’intwari, abantu bazwi cane mu miryango yabo; abo mu bwoko bwa kimwe c(’igice) ca Manase—ibihumbi cumi na munani, batoranijwe ku mazina kugira baze bime Dawidi ubwami; abo mu bwoko bwa Isakari: abakuru magana abiri batahura ibihe, bazi ivyo Isirayeli ikwiye gukora, kumwe n’incuti zabo zose bategeka; abo mu bwoko bwa Zabuloni: abasirikare ibihumbi mirongo itanu bamenyereye intambara, bitwaje intwaro z’intambara z’ubwoko bwose, biteguriye gufasha Dawidi n’umutima wabo wose, abo mu bwoko bwa Nafutali—abakuru igihumbi, hamwe na bo abantu ibihumbi mirongo itatu na birindwi bitwaje inkinzo n’icumu; abo mu bwoko bwa Dani—abantu ibihumbi mirongo ibiri na munani na magana atandatu biteguriye intambara; abo mu bwoko bwa Asheri—abasirikare ibihumbi mirongo ine bamenyereye intambara biteguriye intambara; abo mu buseruko bwa Yorodani—Rubeni, Gadi, igice ca bwoko bwa Manase—ibihumbi ijana na mirongo ibiri, bitwaje intwaro z’intambara z’ubwoko bwose.

Abo bose bari abarwanyi bateguwe mu ntambara baje i Heburoni n’umutima wabo wose kugira bime Dawidi ubwami kuri Isirayeli yose; na Isirayeli isigaye yari ifise umutima umwe wo kwima Dawidi ubwami. Bamarana imisi itatu na Dawidi, barya banywa; incuti zabo zari zarabateguriye ibifungurwa. Ababanyi babo gushika kure muri Isakari, Zabuloni, na Nafutali bazana ibifungurwa ku ndogobwa, ku ngamiya, ku ndogobwa z’umuvange, no ku mikende—ifu, imitsima y’insukumba, imitsima y’imizabibu yumye, divayi, amavuta, inka, n’intama vyinshi cane, kuko hariho umunezero muri Isirayeli.
