Mu n'dzidzi wa amambo kuenda ku nkhondo, Dhavidhi asala kunyumba, aona Bhatiseba mbakasamba, atuma kuti ambweresere, ndipo iye akhala na mimba. Uriya akhonda kupuma n'nyumba yace pomwe anyankhondo ali m'misasa, natenepo Dhavidhi alembesa kuti aikhwe patsogolo pa nkhondo mbaphiwa. Pyenepi ndi pyakuipa pamaso pa Baba wathu.
11 1Mu n'dzidzi wa masika, n'dzidzi ukhaenda amambo ku nkhondo, Dhavidhi atuma Yoabhi, anyankhondo ace, na Izarayeli onsene. Iwo afudza Aamoni mbazungulira Rabha. Mbwenye Dhavidhi apitiriza kukhala ku Yerusalemu. 2Namaulo unango, Dhavidhi alamuka pa ntanda wace mbafamba pa denga ya nyumba ya mambo. Buluka penepo, aona nkazi akhasamba; iye akhali wakubalika kakamwe. 3Dhavidhi atuma munthu toera kubvundzisa thangwi ya nkazi unoyu. Munthu m'bodzi alonga kuti: “Uyu si Bhatixebha tayu, mwana wa Eliyamu, nkazi wa Uriya Muhiti?”
4Dhavidhi atuma anyakutumwa mbankwata. Nkazi abwera kuna iye, Dhavidhi mbagona naye—iye akhamala kucenesa ekha ku kupswipa kwace—buluka penepo abwerera kunyumba kwace. a a v4 Mwambo wa Mose ukhafuna kuti nkazi acite miyambo yakucenesa pakumala kwa n'dzidzi wace wa mwezi mwezi, mbadzati abwerera ku umaso wace wa ntsiku zonsene (ona Levitiko 15:19-28). 5Nkazi unoyu akhala na pathupi, mbatumiza mphangwa kuna Dhavidhi: “Ndiri na pathupi.”
6Dhavidhi atumiza mphangwa kuna Yoabhi: “Nditumizire Uriya Muhiti.” Yoabhi atumiza Uriya kuna Dhavidhi. 7Uriya pidafika iye kuna Dhavidhi, Dhavidhi ambvundzisa thangwi ya Yoabhi, anyankhondo, na kuti nkhondo ikhafamba tani. 8Dhavidhi apanga Uriya: “Ndoko kunyumba kwako, usambe miyendo yako.” Uriya abuluka pa nyumba ya mambo, mambo mbantumizira muoni nduli mwace. 9Mbwenye Uriya agona pa nsuwo wa nyumba ya mambo pabodzi na atumiki onsene a mbuya wace, mbakhonda kuenda kunyumba kwace. 10Dhavidhi pidapangwa iye kuti Uriya nee aenda kunyumba kwace, iye ambvundza: “Kodi iwe nee wabwera ku ulendo? Thangwi yanji nee waenda kunyumba kwako?”
11Uriya atawira Dhavidhi: “Bhokosi ya Cibverano, Izarayeli, na Yuda, ali m'matenti, mbuya wanga Yoabhi na anyankhondo a mbuya wanga ali nkati mwa nseka wakutekera. Kodi ine ndaende kunyumba kwanga toera kudya, kumwa, na kugona na nkazi wanga? Ninga muli maso imwe, na ninga uli maso moyo wanu, nee ndinacita pinthu penepi.”
12Dhavidhi apanga Uriya: “Khala pano lero kazinjipo, mangwana ndinakubwezera.” Na tenepo Uriya akhala ku Yerusalemu ntsiku ineyi na ntsiku yakutowera. 13Dhavidhi ancemera, mbadya na kumwa pabodzi na iye, Dhavidhi mbancitisa kuledzera. Mbwenye namaulo unoyu, Uriya abuluka mbaenda kugona pa mphasa yace pabodzi na atumiki a mbuya wace; iye nee aenda kunyumba kwace.
14Namacibese, Dhavidhi alemba tsamba kuna Yoabhi, mbapereka kuna Uriya toera akaperekere. 15Iye alemba mu tsamba kuti: “Ika Uriya patsogolo pa nkhondo pakuwanga kakamwe, buluka penepo bwerera nduli mwace, toera iye amenywe mbafa.”
16Yoabhi mukhazungulira iye nzinda, aikha Uriya pa mbuto ikhadziwa iye kuti pakhali na anyankhondo akuwanga kakamwe. 17Amuna a nzinda abuluka mbamenyana na Yoabhi, atumiki anango a Dhavidhi mbagwa. Uriya Muhiti afambo. 18Penepo Yoabhi atumiza mphangwa, mbapanga Dhavidhi pya nkhondo pyonsene. 19Iye apanga nyakutumwa: “Ungamala kupanga mambo mphangwa zonsene za nkhondo, 20mambo angaipirwa mbakubvundza: ‘Thangwi yanji mwamenya nkhondo cifupi kakamwe na nzinda? Kodi nee mukhadziwa kuti iwo mbadaponya miseve buluka pa mpanda? 21Mbani adapha Abhimeleki mwana wa Yerubhexeti? Kodi nkazi nee amponyera mwala wakusindira wa padzulu buluka pa mpanda, mbafa ku Tebezi? Thangwi yanji mwaenda cifupi kakamwe na mpanda?’—penepo longani kuti: Ntumiki wanu Uriya Muhiti afambo.” b b v21 Yerubhexeti ndi dzina inango ya Gidheoni; mbiri ya mwala wakusindira yalembwa mu Atongi 9:50-54.
22Na tenepo nyakutumwa aenda, mbafika, mbapanga Dhavidhi pyonsene pidantuma Yoabhi toera kulonga. 23Nyakutumwa apanga Dhavidhi: “Amuna anewa atikunda mbabuluka kudzatimenya pa nseka, mbwenye ife taabwezera mpaka pa nsuwo wa nzinda. 24Anyakuponya miseve aponya atumiki anu buluka pa mpanda, atumiki anango a mambo mbafa. Ntumiki wanu Uriya Muhiti afambo.”
25Dhavidhi apanga nyakutumwa: “Panga Yoabhi: ‘Pinthu penepi pireke kukunentesa, thangwi supada isamedza m'bodzi ninga unango. Menya nzinda mwakuwanga kakamwe, mbuufudza.’ Mpase mphamvu.”
26Nkazi wa Uriya pidabva iye kuti Uriya mamunace afa, iye alira maliro a mamunace. 27Maliro pidamala, Dhavidhi antumiza kukamucemera, mban'bweresa kunyumba kwace, iye mbakhala nkazi wace, mbam'balira mwana wamamuna. Mbwenye pidacita Dhavidhi pikhali pyakuipa pamaso pa Baba wathu.
