2 Samweli 18 FHB Father's Heart Bible™

18 ¹Dawidi araharura ingabo ziwe, azishiriraho abakuru b’ibihumbi n’abakuru b’amajana. ²Dawidi arungika izo ngabo: ica gatatu kirongowe na Yowabu, ica gatatu kirongowe na Abishayi mwene Seruya, mwene wabo wa Yowabu, n’ica gatatu kirongowe na Itayi w’i Gati. Umwami abwira izo ngabo ati: “Nanje ntazobura kuja nabo.”

³Mugabo izo ngabo zaravuze ziti: “Ntukagende. Kuko nitwahunga, ntibazotwitwararika; kandi niyo igice cacu gipfuye, ntibazobitwararika. Ariko wewe uhambaye nk’ibihumbi cumi muri twebwe. Ni vyiza rero ko wokwama mu gisagara, witeguriye kudutabara.”

⁴Umwami arababwira ati: “Nzokora ico cose kibabereye ciza.” Nuko ahagarara ku marembo, mu gihe ingabo zose zariko zirasohoka ku majana no ku bihumbi.

⁵Umwami ategeka Yowabu, Abishayi na Itayi ati: “Ni mumvurire umusore Abusalomu, ku bwanje.” Ingabo zose zumva umwami ariko ategeka abakuru ivyerekeye Abusalomu.

⁶Ingabo zisohoka zija mu kirwa guhangana n’Abisirayeli, maze intambara iba mw’ishamba ry’i Efurayimu. ⁷Ng’aho ingabo za Isirayeli ziranesherezwa n’abantu ba Dawidi, kandi ubwicanyi bwo kuri uwo musi bwari bwinshi: abantu ibihumbi mirongwibiri. ⁸Intambara ikwiragira mu karere kose, kandi ishamba rirya ingabo nyinshi kuri uwo musi kuruta izo inkota yishe.

⁹Abusalomu ahura n’abantu ba Dawidi. Ari ku ndogobwa yiwe, araca munsi y’amashami yabundanye y’igiti kinini c’umwatanya, maze umutwe wiwe ukwatira mu giti. Amanika hagati y’ijuru n’isi, mu gihe indogobwa yagenda munsi yiwe. ¹⁰Umuntu umwe arabibona, abibwira Yowabu ati: “Mbonye Abusalomu amanitse mu giti c’umwatanya.”

¹¹Yowabu abwira uwo muntu amubwiye ati: “None wamubonye! Ni kuki none utamukubise ngo agwe hasi ng’aho? Noba nagukwiye ivy’amafaranga ya feza y’imisi cumi n’umukandara.”

¹²Mugabo uwo muntu abwira Yowabu ati: “Naho basuka amafaranga ya feza y’imisi igihumbi mu biganza vyanje, sindokwatura ukuboko kwanje ngo nkubite umwana w’umwami. Kuko twese twumvise umwami agutegeka wewe, Abishayi na Itayi ngo: ‘Ni mukingire umusore Abusalomu ku bwanje.’ ¹³Iyo mbigenza ukundi, noba naguye ubugingo bwanje ku rupfu, kuko nta na kimwe cinyegezwa umwami, kandi nawe wari kunyirengagiza.”

¹⁴Yowabu aravuga ati: “Sindota umwanya nkubana gutyo.” Afata amacumu atatu mu kuboko kwiwe, ayacumita mu mutima wa Abusalomu akiri muzima, mu mutima w’igiti c’umwatanya. ¹⁵Maze abasore cumi, abaheka ibirwanisho vya Yowabu, bakikuza Abusalomu, baramukubita, baramwica. ¹⁶Yowabu avuza inzamba y’ihembe ry’impfizi, nuko ingabo ziheba guhiga Abisirayeli, kuko Yowabu yazizigamye. ¹⁷Bafata Abusalomu, bamuta mu rwobo runini rwo mw’ishamba, bamutereka urwimbirizo runini rw’amabuye. Abisirayeli bose barahunga, umwe wese aja i muhira iwe.

¹⁸Akiriho, Abusalomu yari yarits-e ikig-wi mu Kiyaya c’Umwami, avuga ati: “Nta mwana mfise wo kubika izina ryanje ngo ryibukwe.” Ico kigwi aciyita izina ryiwe, kandi gihamagarwa Icibutso ca Abusalomu gushika n’uno musi. ^a a v18 Abusalomu yari yaravyaye abahungu (2 Samweli 14:27), ariko bisa n’uko bapfuye imbere yiwe, bituma adasigara n’umuragwa wo kubandanya izina ryiwe.

Dawidi aririra umwana wiwe Abusalomu

¹⁹Ahimaheza mwene Sadoki aravuga ati: “Reka niruke, mbwire umwami yuko Data wa twese yamuhoreye ku bansi biwe.”

²⁰Yowabu aramubwira ati: “Si wewe uzotwara inkuru uno musi. Uzotwara inkuru uwundi musi, ariko uno musi ntacotwara, kuko umwana w’umwami yapfuye.”

²¹Yowabu abwira umunya-Kushi ati: “Genda, ubwire umwami ivyo wabonye.” Umunya-Kushi yunamira Yowabu, aca iruka.

²²Ahimaheza mwene Sadoki yongera kubwira Yowabu ati: “Vyagenda uko vyagenda, ndakwinginze, nanje reka niruke inyuma y’umunya-Kushi.” Yowabu amwishura ati: “Ni kuki uruka, mwananje? Nta nkuru ufise ikwiye impembo.”

²³Aravuga ati: “Vyagenda uko vyagenda, ndiruka.” Yowabu ati: “Iruka.” Nuko Ahimaheza aca iruka inzira yo mu kiyaya, arusha umunya-Kushi iruka.

²⁴Dawidi yari yicaye hagati y’amarembo abiri. Umurinzi aduga ku gisenge c’irembo ku ruhome, araramura amaso yiwe, abona umuntu ariko aruka ari wenyene. ²⁵Umurinzi arasemerera, abibwira umwami. Umwami aravuga ati: “Niba ari wenyene, azanye inkuru.” Nya muntu ariko aruka abandanya kwegera.

²⁶Umurinzi abona uwundi muntu ariko aruka, arahamagara umurinzi w’irembo ati: “Raba, uwundi muntu ariko aruka ari wenyene!” Umwami aravuga ati: “Na we azanye inkuru.”

²⁷Umurinzi aravuga ati: “Uwa mbere aruka nka Ahimaheza mwene Sadoki.” Umwami aravuga ati: “Ni umuntu mwiza; aje n’inkuru nziza.”

²⁸Ahimaheza ahamagara umwami ati: “Vyose biri uko bikwiye!” Yunama imbere y’umwami, aterama mu kuntu, aravuga ati: “Hahirwe Data wa twese, yatanze abagararije databuja umwami.”

²⁹Umwami arabaza ati: “Umbwire nimba umusore Abusalomu ari muzima.” Ahimaheza yishura ati: “Igihe Yowabu yarungika umusavyi w’umwami hamwe nanje umusavyi wawe, nabonye urwamo rwinshi, mugabo sinamenye ico vyari.”

³⁰Umwami aravuga ati: “Rengana uhagarare ng’aha.” Nuko arengana, ahagarara mu kuntu.

³¹Umunya-Kushi arashika, aravuga ati: “Inkuru nziza, databuja umwami! Uno musi Uhoraho yakuvanye mu kuboko kwa bose bakugararije.”

³²Umwami abaza umunya-Kushi ati: “Umbwire nimba umusore Abusalomu ari muzima.” Umunya-Kushi yishura ati: “Abansi ba databuja umwami, n’abakugararije bose bagomba kukugirira nabi, bamere nk’uwo musore.”

³³Umwami arajugumira. Araduga mu cumba co hejuru c’irembo, ararira, avuga mu kugenda ati: “Mwananje Abusalomu! Mwananje, mwananje, Abusalomu! Iyaba ari jewe napfuye mu cimbo cawe, Abusalomu, mwananje, mwananje!”
