Divulu Dya Dyanga Dya Samuwele 24:1-22
24 Kyoso Sawulu kyavutuka mu kulwa o ita ni akwa Fidíxa, a mwambela, exi: “Davidi wala mu kikangalakata ku Engedi.”
2 Kyenyiki, Sawulu wasolo midi jitatu ja mayala mu Izalayele yoso, yu wayi musota Davidi ni mayala mê ku milundu kwene mukala o jihombo ja milundu.
3 Sawulu wabhixila mu kibhanga kya jingombe kyexile bhu mbandu a njila, bhwexile we dibanda, yu wabokona-mu phala kubhanga yene mubhanga o athu mu dixidixilu.* Davidi ni mayala mê, adiswekele bhu hota dya dibanda dyenyidi.
4 O mayala a Davidi a mwambela, exi: “Kiki kyene o kizuwa kya mu kutangela Jihova, wixi: ‘Nga kubhakula o nguma yé bhu maku mé, utena kubhanga i wamesena.’” Kyenyiki, Davidi wayi ni ku muzukama bhofele-bhofele, yu wabatula mbandu ya divunga dya Sawulu.
5 Mukusuluka, o muxima* wa Davidi wexile mu mutitila,* mukonda dya kubatula mbandu ku divunga dya Sawulu.
6 Davidi wambela o mayala mê, wixi: “Mukonda dya kuxila Jihova, eme nuka nganda bhanga o kima kiki kwa ngana yami, yó a mu undu kwa Jihova. Eme kinganda bhanga kima kyayibha kwa mwene. Mukonda mwene a mu undu kwa Jihova.”
7 Kyenyiki, ni izwelu yiyi Davidi watululukisa* o mayala mê yu wa afidisa kujibha Sawulu. Sawulu anga utunda bhu dibanda, usuluka njila yê.
8 Mukusuluka, Davidi watundu mu dibanda yu wadikola kwa Sawulu, wixi: “Ngana yami, eye u sobha!” Kyoso Sawulu kyasakuka yu watale kudima, Davidi wafukama ni pholo bhoxi.
9 Davidi wambela Sawulu, wixi: “Mukonda dyahi eye u ngana, wa mubhana mátwi ku jimbwembwe ja athu a muzwela kwila ngamesena ku kubhanga kyayibha?
10 Mu kizuwa kyalelu, eye wamono ni mesu mê kyebhi Jihova kya kubhakula bhu lukwaku lwami, mu dibanda. Maji kyoso kya ngitangela phala ku kujibha, eme nga kukwatela henda, eme ngambe: ‘Kinganda bhanga kima kyayibha kwa ngana yami, mukonda mwene muthu a mu undu kwa Jihova.’
11 Tata yami, tala o mbandu ya divunga dyé bhu mak’wami. Kyoso ki ngabatula o mbandu yiyi ya divunga eme kingikujibha. Kindala utena kumona kwila, kingamesena ku kubhanga kyayibha mba ku kubhukumukina. Kingate we kituxi kokwe, sumbala eye wa mu ngisota phala ku ngijibha.
12 Jihova akale mufundixi wetu, Jihova a ku kaxtikale mu kima ki wa mu ngibhanga eye. Maji eme kinganda kujibha.
13 Kala kyambe o sabhu: ‘O kuyibha kwijila ku athu ayibha,’ maji eme kinganda kubhanga kima kyayibha.
14 Ihi yabhangesa o sobha ya Izalayele kutunda? Watundu phala kusota ihi? O imbwa ya difwila, inga phala kusota o mbwanana?*
15 Jihova akale o mufundixi, mwene wanda tufundisa kiyadi kyetu. Mwene wanda tokwesa kyambote o maka ni ku ngizokela. Wanda batula o maka ni kuyuka ni ku ngibhulula bhu maku mé.”
16 Kyoso Davidi kyazubha kuzwela o ima yiyi, Sawulu wa mwibhwidisa: Eye u mon’ami Davidi? Mukusuluka, Sawulu wamateka o kudila ni dízwi dyaswina,
17 yu wambela Davidi, wixi: “Eye wabeta-kota mu kukala u muthu wambote eme ndenge. Mukonda wa ngibhangela mbote, maji eme nga kuvutwila phulu.
18 Lelu, eye wa ngitangela o mbote i wa ngibhange, mu kukamba ku ngijibha, sumbala Jihova wa ngibhakula bhu maku mé.
19 Kuma, diyala dyebhi dikwata nguma yê, anga umweha kuya ngo sé ku mubhanga kyayibha? Jihova wanda kubesowala mu mbote i wa ngibhangela mu kizuwa kyalelu.
20 Kindala ngejiya ni kidi kyoso kwila, eye wanda kala u sobha. Eye wanda tumina Izalayele mu mivu yavulu.
21 Kyenyiki, mu dijina dya Jihova ngikanene kwila, kiwanda jibha o mwiji* wami ni kujima o dijina dyami mu inzo ya tat’etu.”
22 Kyenyiki, Davidi waxikina kukanena Sawulu. Mukusuluka, Sawulu wayi ku dibhata dyê, maji Davidi ni mayala mê avutuka bhu kididi bhwa diswekele.
