Ahitofeli na Hushayi bahanura Abusalomu

Ahitofeli ashimika ko batera vuba iri joro umwami yarushe; Hushayi amuvuguruza ahanura gutebuka mu majambo ashimagiza, maze Abusalomu afata impanuro mbi kuruta — kubera ko Data yari yagambiriye guca impanuro nziza ya Ahitofeli. Inkuru ishikira Dawidi biciye mw'iriba ripfutswe. Ahitofeli asubira iwe, atunganya urugo rwiwe, maze arimanika.

Igice 17.

Maze Ahitofeli abwira Abusalomu ati: “Reka ntoranye abantu ibihumbi cumi na bibiri, nce mvyuka iri joro nkurikire Dawidi. Nzomutera igihe ananiwe kandi agoyagoya, muhagarike umutima, maze abantu biwe bose bahunge; nca ntera umwami wenyene. Nzogusubiza abantu bose. Uwo muntu umwe urondera, urupfu rwiwe rusobanura ko umwe wese agaruka, maze abantu bose bazoba mu mahoro.”

Uwo mugambi wabereye Abusalomu neza n’abagabo b’inararibonye ba Isiraheli bose. Abusalomu avuga ati: “Hamagara na Hushayi Umwarikiti, twumve ico na we avuga.”

Hushayi amushikiriye, Abusalomu amubwira ati: “Ahitofeli yahanuye gutya. Twokora ivyo avuze? Nimba atari vyo, wewe vuga.”

Hushayi abwira Abusalomu ati: “Impanuro Ahitofeli atanze ntiyabaye nziza iki gihe. Hushayi yongerako ati: “Urazi so n’abantu biwe, intwari z’inkazi, nk’idubu yambuwe ivyana vyayo mu gahinga. So ni umurwanyi w’inararibonye; ntazoraramana n’ingabo.” Mbere n’ubu yinyegeje mu rwobo canke ahandi. Nimba bamwe mu bantu bawe baguye mbere, uwuvyumvise wese azovuga ati: ‘Abantu ba Abusalomu baratikijwe!’ Maze mbere n’intwari cane, umutima wayo uri nk’umutima w’intambwe, azoyonga n’ubwoba, kuko Isiraheli yose izi ko so ari umurwanyi, n’abari kumwe na we ko ari intwari. Ni co impanuro yanje ni iyi: koranya Isiraheli yose iwe, uhereye i Dani gushika i Beyeri-Sheba, benshi nk’umusenyi wo ku nyanja, maze wewe ubwawe uje mu rugamba. Tuzomushikira aho ari hose, tumuvumbagatarire nk’ikime ku butaka, ntituzosigaza muzima we canke n’umwe mu bantu biwe. Nimba yikweze mu gisagara, Isiraheli yose izozana imigozi aho, maze tugikwege tucishe mu kabande gushika aho ata kabuyemwe gasigaye.”

Abusalomu n’abagabo ba Isiraheli bose bavuga bati: “Impanuro ya Hushayi Umwarikiti iruta iya Ahitofeli.” Kuko Data wa twese yari yafashe umugambi wo gutsinda impanuro nziza ya Ahitofeli, kugira ngo Data wa twese azanire Abusalomu ivyago.

Hushayi abwira abaherezi Sadoki na Abiyatari ati: “Ivyo ni vyo Ahitofeli yahanuye Abusalomu n’abagabo b’inararibonye ba Isiraheli, kandi ivyo ni vyo nahanuye jewe. None nimurungike ubutumwa ningoga kuri Dawidi muti: ‘Ntukararame iri joro ku mazibukiro yo mu bugaragwa; nutambuke ata kabuza, canke umwami n’abantu bose bari kumwe na we bazomirwa.’”

Yonatani na Ahimaasi baba bategereje i Eni-Rogeli; umwigeme umusuku yaja akababwira, na bo bakaja bakabwira umwami Dawidi, kuko batari bashobora kuboneka binjira mu gisagara. Ariko umusore yarababonye, abibwira Abusalomu. Nuko abo babiri bagenda n’ubwira bashika kw’inzu y’umugabo i Bahurimu, uwari afise iriba mw’ikaro ryiwe, maze bamanukiramwo. Umugore w’uwo mugabo asanzaza igipfukisho ku kanwa k’iriba, akwizaho intete, ku buryo ata co cabonetse. Abasuku ba Abusalomu bashitse ku mugore kw’inzu, bamubaza bati: “Ahimaasi na Yonatani bari hehe?” We ati: “Baratambutse akayaga.” Abagabo barondera, ntibaronka n’umwe, maze basubira i Yeruzalemu.

Bamaze kugenda, abo babiri bava mu riba, baragenda bashikiriza inkuru umwami Dawidi. Bamubwira bati: “Vyuka utambuke amazi ningoga, kuko Ahitofeli yaguhaye uwo mugambi mubi.”

Nuko Dawidi n’umwe wese yari kumwe na we baravyuka, bambuka Yorodani. Mu gitondo ntihasigaye n’umwe atari yatambutse.

Ahitofeli abonye ko impanuro yiwe itakurikijwe, atera indobo ku ndogoba yiwe, aja i muhira mu gisagara ciwe. Atunganya inzu yiwe, maze aripfundika. Arapfa, ahambwa mu mva ya se.

Dawidi ashika i Mahanayimu, mu gihe Abusalomu yambuka Yorodani n’abagabo ba Isiraheli bose bari kumwe na we. Abusalomu yari yagize Amasa umukuru w’ingabo mu kibanza ca Yowabu. Se wa Amasa yari Yitira Umwisiraheli, uwari yarubatse Abigayili umukobwa wa Nahashi, mushiki wa Seruya, nyina wa Yowabu. Isiraheli na Abusalomu bakambika mu gihugu ca Gileyadi.

Dawidi ashitse i Mahanayimu, Shobi mwene Nahashi wo i Raba y’Abamoni, na Makiri mwene Amiyeli wo i Lo-Debari, na Baruzilayi Umugileyadi wo i Rogelimu, bazana ibitanda, n’amabakure, n’ibibumbano, hamwe n’ingano, na sayiri, n’ifu, n’intete zokeje, n’ibiharage, n’indwara, n’ubuki, n’amata matonde, n’intama, n’amata y’ivyokamwe yafumbye, vyo kurisha Dawidi n’abantu biwe, kuko bavuze bati: “Abantu bafise inzara, bararushe, kandi bafise inyota mu bugaragwa.”
