(1Mi 11:1-9; 14:1-7)
1 Atyanu ebika bya Isirairi byonabyona ni byaba eeri oDawudi e Kebbulooni ni bamukoba bati, “Tuli baganda era bʼomusaaye gumo na iwe. 2 Omu biseera ebyʼeira oSawulo nga niiye okabaka waiswe, niiwe owakubbemberanga aBaisirairi omwitaabaalo. Era oMusengwa yakukobere ati, ‘Iwe walikubbembera abantu bange aBaisirairi, era iwe walibafuga.’ ”
3 Kale awo abeekubbemberi ba Isirairi bonabona ni baaba e Kebbulooni eeri okabaka oDawudi, era nʼakola nabo endagaano omumaiso ga Musengwa, ni bamusukaku amafuta, okubba kabaka wa Isirairi.
4 ODawudi oweyatandikiire okufuga yabbaire wʼemyanka 30, era nʼafuga okumala emyanka 40.+ 5 Omu Kebbulooni yafugiireyo oYuda emyanka musanvu nʼemyeri mukaaga, kaisi omu Yerusaalemi nʼafugirayo oIsirairi nʼoBuyudaaya emyanka 33.
ODawudi awamba oYerusaalemi
6 Awo okabaka oDawudi nʼabalwanibe ni baaba e Yerusaalemi okulwanisya aBayebbusi, ababbaire abatyami baayo. ABayebbusi abo baseegere bati oDawudi tayezya okuwangula nʼaingira omu kibuga ekyo. Ni bajerega oDawudi bati, “Tiwalingira omu kibuga kinu olwʼokubba aboofu nʼabaleme bona bayezya okukulemesya ni bakukanjirirya.”+ 7 Neye era oDawudi nʼawamba ekibuga ekyo oSayuuni ekiriku olugaga ni kisuuka eKibuga kya Dawudi.
8 Oku lunaku olwo oDawudi nʼakoba abalwanibe ati, “Nabuli eyaita aBayebbusi, ayambukire omu mwala gwʼamaizi aite aboofu nʼabaleme abo nze oDawudi abencaawa.” Kyazwireku ni bakoba bati, “Aboofu nʼabaleme tibalingira omu nyumba ya Musengwa.”
9 ODawudi oweyamalire okuwamba ekibuga nʼolugaga lwakyo, nʼakityamamu era nʼakiwa eriina ati, “Kibuga kya Dawudi.” Nʼayombeka omu kifo ekyo okukyeruguulirirya, ngʼatandiikira omu kifo ekibaizwiryemu eitakali olwʼokwekuuma, ekibeeta Miiro, nʼokwira omunda. 10 ODawudi ni yeeyongeranga okubba omufugi owʼamaani, olwʼokubba oMusengwa iye oKibbumba oWabwezye Bwonabwona yabbaire aamo naye.
11 Awo oKiramu okabaka wʼe Tiiro nʼatumira oDawudi abakwenda, nʼamuweererya embaabo egyʼemivule, nʼababaizi, nʼabombeki abakolesya amabbaale bombekere oDawudi olubiri. 12 Awo oDawudi nʼategeera ati oMusengwa amuteekerewo okubba okabaka wa Isirairi, era ngʼagulumalya obwakabakabwe oku lwʼabantube aBaisirairi.
13 Awo oDawudi oweyamalire okuzwa e Kebbulooni nʼatyamira nakimo omu Yerusaalemi, ni yeeyongera okufumbirwa abakali abandi. Nʼabyala abaana abandi abaisuka nʼabaala. 14 Ganu niigo amaliina gʼabaana, abeyabyaliire omu Yerusaalemi: OSamuuwa, nʼoSobbabbu, nʼoNasani, nʼoSulemaani, 15 nʼoIbbali, nʼErisuwa, nʼoNefegi, nʼoYafiya 16 nʼErisaama nʼEriyada nʼErifereti.
ODawudi awangula aBafirisuuti
(1Mi 14:8-17)
17 ABafirisuuti owebawuliire bati oDawudi bamusukireku amafuta okubba kabaka wa Isirairi, aBafirisuuti bonabona ni baniinaniina ni baaba bamunoonie. ODawudi oweyawuliire, nʼayaba ni yeebisa omu lugagalwe. 18 Atyanu awo aBafirisuuti babbaire bamalire ira okutuuka omu kiinamo kyʼe Lefayiimu nga bakimaalaire kyonakyona. 19 Awo oDawudi ni yeebuulyaku oMusengwa ati, “Nniinaniine njabe nnumbe aBafirisuuti? Wabawaayo omu bwezye bwange ni mbawangula?”
OMusengwa nʼairamu ati, “Oyabe. Mazima dala njaba okubawaayo omu bwezyebwo obawangule.”
20 Kale oDawudi nʼayaba e Bbaali Perazimu nʼawangulira eeyo aBafirisuuti, era nʼakoba ati, “OMusengwa abbingire abalabe bange omumaiso gange, ngʼomwizulyo gwʼamaizi owegumenya e gibatindire.” Ekifo ekyo kagira bakyeta Bbaali Perazimu.* 21 ABafirisuuti owebairukire, balekereyo ebifaananyi byabwe ebibasinza, oDawudi nʼabalwanibe ni babitwala.
22 Era tete aBafirisuuti ni baira ni bamaalaala ekiinamo kyʼe Lefayiimu kyonakyona. 23 Era oDawudi nʼairamu okwebuulyaku oMusengwa. OMusengwa nʼamwiramu ati, “Tiwabalumbira aanu. Weeruguulye oire e nyuma waabwe, obalumbe ngʼozwera mumaiso gʼemisaale egibeeta obbalusamu. 24 Awo owewawulira amagono nga gazwera oku misaale e ngulu ooti baisirikale abakumba, kaisi nʼobalumba olwʼokubba nze oMusengwa naabba nkukubbembeiremu okuwangula amaje gʼaBafirisuuti.” 25 Kale oDawudi nʼakola ngʼoMusengwa oweyamulagiire, nʼayaba ngʼaita aBafirisuuti okuzwera e Gebba okutuukira nakimo e Gezeri.
