1Afei, Samuel wuiɛ na Israel nyinaa hyia yɛɛ no ayie. Na wɔsiee no wɔ ne kurom Rama. Na Dawid tu kɔɔ Maon ɛserɛ so.
2Na ɔbarima ɔdefoɔ bi a ɔfiri Maon a na ɔwɔ agyapadeɛ wɔ baabi a ɛbɛn akuraa Karmel. Na ɔwɔ mmirekyie apem ne nnwan mpensa. Na ɛyɛ mmoa ho nwi twitwa berɛ. 3Saa ɔbarima no din de Nabal.

4Ɛberɛ a Dawid tee sɛ Nabal retwitwa ne mmoa ho nwi no, 5ɔsomaa mmarima mmabunu edu kɔɔ ne nkyɛn. Ɔde nkra maa wɔn sɛ, 6“Wo nkwa so! Wo ne wo fiefoɔ nyinaa nnya ahoɔden! Na wʼagyapadeɛ nyinaa nso nyɛ nhyira.

9Dawid mmeranteɛ no de nkra no maa Nabal na wɔtwɛnee ne mmuaeɛ.
10Nabal buaa Dawid asomfoɔ no sɛ, “Hwan ne saa Dawid yi? Saa Yisai babarima yi dwene sɛ ɔne hwan? Nnansa yi, asomfoɔ bebree retete wɔn ho afiri wɔn wuranom ho. 11Adɛn enti na ɛsɛ sɛ mede me burodo ne me nsuo ne mʼaboa a makum no ɛnam a mede rebɛma me nwitwitwafoɔ no ma akwanmukafoɔ a obi nnim baabi a wɔfiri?”
12Na Dawid mmarima no sane kɔeɛ, kɔkaa deɛ Nabal kaeɛ no kyerɛɛ no. 13Dawid ka kyerɛɛ ne mmarima no sɛ, “Momfa mo akofena.” Na Dawid nso faa ne deɛ. Mmarima bɛyɛ sɛ ahanan na wɔkaa Dawid ho kɔeɛ, ɛnna mmarima ahanu nso tena wɛnee akodeɛ no.
14Nabal asomfoɔ no mu baako kɔka kyerɛɛ Nabal yere Abigail sɛ, “Dawid somaa abɔfoɔ firi ɛserɛ no so sɛ wɔ ne yɛn wura mmɛkasa, nanso ɔdidii wɔn atɛm. 15Nanso Dawid nnipa no yɛ ma yɛn. Wɔannyɛ yɛn bɔne biara.

20Ɔte nʼafunumu so nam ara kɔsii bepɔ bi nsiane mu no, ɔhunuu Dawid nso ne ne mmarima sɛ wɔresiane hyia no. 21Na Dawid aka sɛ, “Mfasoɔ biara nni so sɛ mahwɛ saa onipa yi agyapadeɛ so wɔ ɛserɛ so a ne biribiara annyera. Ɔde bɔne atua me papa a meyɛɛ no no so ka. 22Sɛ ɛba sɛ ɔkyena ne fieni bi da so te ase a, Onyankopɔn ne me nni no denden so pa ara.”

23Abigail hunuu Dawid no, ntɛm ara, ɔhuri firii nʼafunumu no so sii fam, bɔɔ ne mu ase wɔ nʼanim. 24Ɔhwee ne nan ase kaa sɛ, “Me wura, megye saa asɛm yi ho afɔdie nyinaa to me ho so.

32Dawid buaa Abigail sɛ, “Nhyira nka Awurade, Israel Onyankopɔn a wama woabɛhyia me ɛnnɛ. 33Ɛda Awurade ase wɔ wʼadwene pa ho. Nhyira nka wo sɛ woamma me ankum ɔbarima no, na woamma mamfa me nsa antɔ wedeɛ. 34Na meka Awurade, Israel Onyankopɔn a wamma me manyɛ wo bɔne no ntam sɛ, sɛ woanka wo ho ammɛhyia me a, anka ɛbɛduru ɔkyena anɔpa no, na Nabal mmarima no mu baako koraa nte ase.”
35Na Dawid gyee nʼakyɛdeɛ no, ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Sane kɔ efie asomdwoeɛ mu. Yɛrenkum wo kunu no.”
36Ɛberɛ a Abigail duruu fie no, ɔhunuu sɛ Nabal ato ɛpono kɛseɛ sɛ ɔhene.

Nabal tee nsɛm no, ɔbubu kaa mpa so. 38Dadu akyi no, Awurade bɔɔ no ma ɔwuiɛ.

39Dawid tee sɛ Nabal awu no, ɔkaa sɛ, “Nhyira nka Awurade a watua Nabal ka na wamma mankum no. Nabal anya ne bɔne so akatua.”
Na Dawid yɛɛ ntɛm soma kɔɔ Abigail nkyɛn, maa wɔkɔka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, ɔbɛware no. 40Asomfoɔ no kɔɔ Karmel kɔka kyerɛɛ Abigail sɛ, “Dawid asoma yɛn sɛ yɛmmra mmɛbisa wo sɛ wobɛware no anaa?”
41Ɔbɔɔ ne mu ase de nʼanim kyerɛɛ fam kaa sɛ, “Aane, masiesie me ho sɛ mɛsom Dawid asomfoɔ mpo.” 42Ntɛm ara, Abigail huri tenaa nʼafunumu so, faa ne mmaawa baanum kaa ne ho, na ɔne Dawid asomfoɔ no kɔeɛ, na ɔbɛyɛɛ Dawid yere. 43Dawid waree Ahinoam25.43 Na Ahinoam yɛ Dawid yere a ɔdi kane (27.3) a na ne babarima a ɔdi kane no wɔfrɛ no Amnon. a ɔfiri Yesreel, na wɔn baanu bɛyɛɛ ne yerenom. 44Na Saulo de ne babaa Mikal, Dawid yere, ama ɔbarima bi a ɔfiri Galim a ne din de Palti a na ɔyɛ Lais babarima.
Dawudi, Nabali ne Abbigayiri
125:1 a 1Sa 28:3 b Kbl 20:29; Ma 34:8 c Lub 21:21; 2By 33:20Awo Samwiri n’afa, Isirayiri yenna ne bakuŋŋaana okumukungubagira. Ne bamuziika ewuwe e Laama.
Awo Dawudi n’avaayo n’aserengeta mu ddungu Palani. 225:2 Yos 15:55; 1Sa 23:24Mu biro ebyo waaliwo omusajja omugagga ennyo mu Mawoni eyalina eby’obugagga e Kalumeeri. Yalina endiga enkumi ssatu n’embuzi lukumi. Byali biseera bya kusala byoya eby’endiga ze, e Kalumeeri. 325:3 a Nge 31:10 b Yos 15:13Erinnya ly’omusajja ye yali Nabali, ne mukyala we nga ye Abbigayiri. Yali mukyala mutegeevu era nga mulungi, nga bw’omutunuulira alabika bulungi, naye bba Omukalebu, nga wa kkabyo kyokka nga mukalabakalaba mu mirimu gye.
4Nabali yali ng’asala ebyoya by’endiga ze, Dawudi n’akiwulira. 5Dawudi n’atuma abavubuka kkumi, n’abagamba nti, “Mwambuke e Kalumeeri eri Nabali mumulamuse mu linnya lyange. 625:6 a Zab 122:7; Luk 10:5 b 1By 12:18Mumugambe nti, Emirembe gibeere ku ggwe n’ennyumba yo, ne ku bintu byo byonna.
725:7 nny 15“Mpulira nti ekiseera eky’okusala ebyoya by’endiga kituuse. Abasumba bo bwe baabeeranga awamu naffe, tetwabayisanga bubi, era n’ebbanga lyonna lye baamala e Kalumeeri tewali na kimu ku bintu byabwe ekyabula. 825:8 Nek 8:10Buuza abaweereza bo, be bajulirwa. Noolwekyo abavubuka bange balabe ekisa mu maaso go kubanga bazze mu kiseera eky’okukwatiramu embaga. Nkusaba obawe kyonna ky’olinawo, oweerezeeko ne mutabani wo Dawudi.”
9Awo abasajja ba Dawudi bwe baatuuka, ne bawa Nabali obubaka obwo mu linnya lya Dawudi, ne balindirira. 1025:10 Bal 9:28Nabali n’addamu abaweereza ba Dawudi nti, “Dawudi oyo ye ani? Mutabani wa Yese oyo ye ani? Ennaku zino abaweereza bangi badduka ku bakama baabwe. 1125:11 Bal 8:6Nnyinza ntya okuddira emigaati gyange, n’amazzi, n’ennyama bye ntekeddeteekedde abasajja bange abasala ebyoya ne mbiwa be sirina kye mbamanyiiko?”
12Awo abasajja ba Dawudi ne bakyuka ne baddayo ne bamutegeeza buli kigambo nga bwe bategeezebbwa. 1325:13 a 1Sa 23:13 b 1Sa 30:24Dawudi n’agamba abasajja be nti, “Mwesibe buli muntu ekitala kye!” Buli omu ku bo ne yeesiba ekitala kye, ne Dawudi ne yeesiba ekikye, abasajja nga bikumi bina ne bayambuka ne Dawudi, ebikumi bibiri ne basigala nga bakuuma eby’okukozesa.
1425:14 1Sa 13:10Omu ku baddu ba Nabali n’agamba Abbigayiri mukyala wa Nabali nti, “Dawudi yatuma ababaka ng’ali mu ddungu okulamusa mukama waffe naye n’abavuma; 1525:15 a nny 7 b nny 21ate nga abasajja abo baali ba kisa nnyo gye tuli, era tebalina kabi ke baatukola newaakubadde okubuza ekintu n’ekimu ku bintu byaffe bwe twali mu ddungu nabo. 1625:16 Kuv 14:22; Yob 1:10Baaberanga ng’ekisenge okutwetooloola emisana n’ekiro, ekiseera kyonna kye twamala nabo nga tulunda endiga. 1725:17 1Sa 20:7Kaakano kifumiitirizeeko, olabe ky’oyinza okukola, kubanga akabi kajjidde mukama waffe n’ennyumba ye yonna. Musajja atabuulirirwa.”
1825:18 a 1By 12:40 b 2Sa 16:1Awo amangwago Abbigayiri n’ayanguwa n’addira emigaati ebikumi bibiri, n’ebita bibiri ebya wayini, n’ennyama ey’endiga ttaano ennongoose obulungi, n’ebigero bitaano eby’eŋŋaano ensiike, n’ebitole kikumi eby’ezabbibu enkalu, n’ebitole ebikumi bibiri eby’ettiini, n’abiteeka ku ndogoyi. 1925:19 Lub 32:20N’agamba abaweereza be nti, “Munkulemberemu, nange nzija.” Naye n’atabuulirako bba Nabali.
20Awo bwe yali yeebagadde endogoyi ye, n’ayita kumpi n’olusozi nga lumukweka. N’asisinkana Dawudi n’abasajja be nabo nga baserengeta okumwolekera. 2125:21 Zab 109:5Dawudi yali yakamala okwogera nti, “Nakuumira bwereere ebintu byonna eby’omusajja ono bwe byali mu ddungu ne wataba na kimu ekyabula; bw’atyo bw’ansasudde, obubi olw’obulungi. 2225:22 a 1Sa 3:17; 20:13 b 1Bk 14:10; 21:21; 2Bk 9:8Kale Katonda akole bw’atyo abalabe ba Dawudi n’okukirawo, enkeera bwe wanaabaawo omusajja we n’omu anaasigala nga mulamu.”
2325:23 1Sa 20:41Awo Abbigayiri bwe yalengera Dawudi, n’ayanguwa okuva ku ndogoyi ye, n’avuunama mu maaso ga Dawudi. 24N’agwa ku bigere bye n’ayogera nti, “Mukama wange omusango gubeere ku nze nzekka. Nkwegayiridde leka omuweereza wo ayogere naawe; wuliriza omuweereza wo ky’anaayogera. 2525:25 Nge 14:16Mukama wange aleme okussa omwoyo ku musajja omusirusiru oyo Nabali, kubanga n’erinnya lye litegeeza musirusiru, atambulira mu busirusiru bwe. Naye nze omuweereza wo, ssaalabye bavubuka mukama wange be watumye.
2625:26 a nny 33 b Beb 10:30 c 2Sa 18:32“Kale nno mukama wange, nga Mukama bw’ali omulamu, akubedde obutayiwa musaayi newaakubadde obutawalana ggwanga n’omukono gwo, era naawe bw’oli omulamu, abalabe bo, n’abo abakuyigganya bonna mukama wange babeere nga Nabali. 2725:27 Lub 33:11; 1Sa 30:26Era n’ekirabo kino omuweereza wo ky’aleetedde mukama wange kiweebwe abavubuka abatambula ne mukama wange. 2825:28 a nny 24 b 2Sa 7:11, 26 c 1Sa 18:17 d 1Sa 24:11Nkwegayiridde osonyiwe ekyonoono kw’omuweereza wo, era Mukama talirema kuzimbira mukama wange obwakabaka obw’enkalakkalira, kubanga mukama wange alwana entalo za Mukama. Waleme okulabika ekikolwa ekikyamu kyonna mu ggwe ennaku zonna ez’obulamu bwo. 2925:29 Yer 10:18Ne bwe walibaawo omuntu yenna alikulumba okukuyigganya okutwala obulamu bwo, obulamu bwa mukama wange bukuumibwenga Mukama Katonda wo mu lulyo olw’abalamu. Naye obulamu bw’abalabe bo alibuvuumuula ng’ejjinja bwe liva mu nvuumuulo. 3025:30 1Sa 13:14Awo Mukama bw’alikolera mukama wange ebirungi byonna bye yamusuubiza, era n’amufuula okuba omukulembeze wa Isirayiri, 3125:31 Lub 40:14mukama wange talibeera na kulumirizibwa mu mutima olw’okuyiwa omusaayi awatali nsonga, wadde okwewalanira eggwanga. Era Mukama bw’alikukolera ebirungi mukama wange, ojjukiranga omuweereza wo.”
3225:32 Lub 24:27; Kuv 18:10; Luk 1:68Awo Dawudi n’agamba Abbigayiri nti, “Mukama Katonda wa Isirayiri atenderezebwe, akutumye okujja okunsisinkana leero. 3325:33 nny 26Akuwe omukisa oyo akubedde okusalawo obulungi, era akubedde okundabula obutayiwa musaayi leero n’obuteewalanira ggwanga. 34Kubanga mazima ddala nga Mukama Katonda wa Isirayiri bw’ali omulamu, ambedde obutakukolako kabi, singa toyanguye kujja kunsisinkana, tewandibadde musajja n’omu owa Nabali eyandiwonyeewo, obudde we bwandikeeredde enkya.”
3525:35 Lub 19:21; 1Sa 20:42; 2Bk 5:19Awo Dawudi n’akkiriza okutwala Abbigayiri bye yaleeta, n’ayogera nti, “Genda ewuwo mirembe. Mpulidde ebigambo byo, era nzikkirizza okwegayirira kwo.”
3625:36 a 2Sa 13:23 b Nge 20:1; Is 5:11, 22; Kos 4:11 c nny 19Awo Abbigayiri bwe yaddayo eri Nabali, n’amusanga ng’ali mu nnyumba, era ng’akoze embaga, ng’eya kabaka. Yali asanyuukiridde nnyo, era ng’atamidde, kyeyava tamunyega ku olwo, okutuusa enkeera. 37Awo bwe bwakya, Nabali omwenge nga gumuweddeko, mukyala we n’amutegeeza ebigambo ebyo byonna, naye omutima gwe ne gukakanyala, ne guba ng’ejjinja. 3825:38 1Sa 26:10; 2Sa 6:7Oluvannyuma lw’ennaku nga kkumi, Nabali n’afa ekikutuko.
39Awo Dawudi bwe yawulira Nabali ng’afudde, n’ayogera nti, “Mukama yeebazibwe anwaniridde, Nabali olw’obubi bwe yankola. Mukama ambedde, era akuumye omuweereza we obutakola kikyamu, n’ateeka ebikolwa bya Nabali ebibi ku mutwe ggwe.”
Awo Dawudi n’atumira Abbigayiri, n’amusaba afuuke mukazi we ng’amusaba okumuwasa. 40Abaweereza ba Dawudi ne bagenda e Kalumeeri ne bagamba Abbigayiri nti, “Dawudi atutumye tukutwale omufumbirwe.”
41N’avuunama amaaso ge n’ayogera nti, “Laba omuweereza wo mweteefuteefu okunaazanga ebigere by’abaweereza ba mukama wange.” 4225:42 Lub 24:61-67Awo Abbigayiri n’ayanguwa okwebagala endogoyi, ng’awerekeddwako abaweereza bataano, n’agenda n’ababaka ba Dawudi, n’amufumbirwa. 4325:43 a Yos 15:56 b 1Sa 27:3; 30:5Dawudi yali awasizza ne Akinoamu25:43 Akinoamu ye yali mukyala wa Dawudi eyasooka (27:3) era ye nnyina wa mutabani we omukulu ayitibwa Amunooni ow’e Yezuleeri, era bombi ne baba bakyala be. 4425:44 a 2Sa 3:15 b Is 10:30Kyokka Sawulo yali agabidde muwala we Mikali, eyali mukyala wa Dawudi, Paluti mutabani wa Layisi ow’e Galimu.
