Abner me rikutu kuna David
6 Nu ngunda ape novita pokati konganda ya Saul noya David, Abner tjandje ma ririre ko omunauvara monganda ya Saul.
7 Saul wa ri nomukazendu omumbanda wena Rispa, omusuko wa Aja. Neyuva rimwe Isboset wa pura Abner a tja: “Okutjavi tji wa karara pomukazendu omumbanda wa tate?” 8 Abner otja ṱomazenge tjinene mena romambo wa Isboset na tja: “Indu owami ombwa mOjuda are? Ami mbi raisa ondjingonekero konganda yaiho Saul na kovazamumwe we na komapanga we, nu hi ku isire okuwira momake wa David; nove ndino mo ndji kuminine omukazendu! 9 Nambano Ndjambi nga vere ami Abner, tji mbi hi nokutjita ihi Muhona tja yanena David. 10 Muhona wa yanena onganda ya Saul okuiyeka ouhona, nokuzika David a rire ombara ya Israel noya Juda, okuza kOdan nga kOberseba.” 11 Isboset ka sorere okuzira embo nangarire rimwe, tjinga aa tira Abner.
12 Abner otja hinda ovatumwa ku David nombuze ndji: “Owaṋi ngu ma honaparere ehi ndi? Ngatu tjite omazuvasaneno, nami me ku vatere okueta Israel atjihe kove.”
13 David wa zira a tja: “Osemba, ami me tjiti omazuvasaneno na ove; nungwari otjiṋa tjimwe tji me hepa kove, otjo hi: Tji mo ya komurungu wandje, orondu tji wa eterere Mikal, omusuko wa Saul.” 14 David wina wa tuma ovahindwa ku Isboset, omuzandu wa Saul, ve katje nai: “Ndji kotorera omukazendu wandje Mikal ngu mba suta nomikova vyomasukarekero vyOvafilisti esere rimwe.” 15 Isboset arire tja hindi ovatumwa ve kaisepo Mikal pomurumendu we Paltiel, omuzandu wa Laish. 16 Nu Paltiel wa kongorera omukazendu we nga kObahurim, ama riri ondjira aihe. Abner arire tja tja ku ye: “Yaruka koyoye.” Neye otja yaruka.
17 Abner wa ya okukazuvasana novanane vOvaisrael na tja: “Oruveze orure eṋe mwe rizerira David kutja a rire ombara yeṋu. 18 Nambano tjiteye nao, Muhona tjinga a hungirira David nai: ‘Neke romukarere wandje David ami me kutura otjiwaṋa tjandje Israel mouvara wOvafilisti nowovanavita na tjo.’ ” 19 Abner wa hungira puna Ovabenjamin wina, na i kOhebron okukaraera David imbi Ovaisrael nOvabenjamin mbi va zuvasanene okutjita.
20 Abner tje ya ku David mOhebron puna ovarumendu omirongo vivari, David otje ve zepera omukandi. 21 Abner wa tja ku David: “Ami me vanga okukaworonganisira Ovaisrael avehe pomuhona wandje ombara kutja ve tjite omazuvasaneno na ove; otji mo sora okuhonapara kombanda yehi arihe otja pu wa vanga.” David arire tja isa Abner a yende; neye wa ya mohange.
Abner ma ṱu
22 Kombunda yanao Joab novarwe wovita ovakwao va David va kotoka kokukahuura, nave eterere ovihuurwa ovingi, Abner tjandje ke ri puna David mOhebron, David tjinga e mu esa kutja a yende mohange. 23 Joab tje ya konganda puna ovarwe avehe wovita, wa raerwa nai: “Abner, omuzandu wa Ner, we ere kombara, noyo ye mu esa okuyenda, notja ya mohange.” 24 Nu Joab wa ya kombara na katja nai ku yo: “Ove wa ungura tjike? Tara, Abner weya kove, nu okutjavi tji we mu esa kutja a yende nao uriri? 25 Ove mo tjiwa kutja Abner, omuzandu wa Ner, weya okukutikura nokuyekutjiwa omapitiro nomahitiro woye, na atjihe tji movanga okutjita.”
26 Tjazumba Joab wa zapo pu David na ka hinda ovatumwa okutezera Abner, nowo ve kemukotorera pondjombo ya Sira, David ngunda e hi nokutjiwa. 27 Abner tja kotoka kOhebron, Joab we mu twara posi yomuvero aayo ma vanga okuhungira na ye mongumumu. Neye we mu twera mezumo; komuhingo mbwi Abner otja ṱa mena rokutja wa zepa Asahel, omuangu wa Joab. 28 David tja zuva otjiṋa hi, wa tja nai: “Ami notjiwaṋa tjandje katu nondjo komurungu wa Muhona nga aruhe nombinḓu ya Abner, omuzandu wa Ner. 29 Ombinḓu ye ngai wire ku Joab na keṱunḓu re arihe. Onganda ya Joab aruhe ngai kare nomutjise wotjikamuha poo wongana poo novandu oviṱeṱu poo novandu mbu mave ṱengaruvyo poo mbu mave ṱondjara.” 30 OoJoab nomuangu we Abisai otji va zepa Abner mena rokutja eye wa zepa omuangu wawo Asahel movita vya Gibeon.
Abner ma pakwa
31 Tjazumba David wa tja ku Joab na kovarumendu, mba ri pu ye: “Nyondororeye ozombanda zeṋu, mu rivarange ovipiriko nu mu rorere Abner ondoro!” Nombara David omuini wa kongorera oruara. 32 Abner tja pakwa mOhebron, ombara ya rira tjinene peyendo re, notjiwaṋa atjihe tja rira puna yo. 33 Nombara David arire tja tangununa Abner na tja:
“Abner indu wa sokuṱa otja omurumendu omurunde are?
34 Omake woye kaye pandekerwe,
nozombaze zoye kaze kutirwe nouketanga wongoporo;

Notjiwaṋa atjihe tje mu rira tjinene komurungu.
35 Otjiwaṋa atjihe tja kondjisa David kutja a rye okaṋa ngunda e ri omutenya, nungwari David wa yana a tja: “Ndjambi nge ndji vere, tji mba ri omboroto poo otjiṋa ngamwa atjihe, eyuva ngunda ari hiya hita.” 36 Otjiwaṋa atjihe tji tja muna otjiṋa hi, otji tja kara nohange. Avihe mbya tjitwa i ombara David, vya tjata kotjiwaṋa. 37 Otjiwaṋa atjihe nOvaisrael avehe meyuva ndo va muna kutja okuṱa kwa Abner, omuzandu wa Ner, kaku zire mombara. 38 Norukwao ombara ya tja nai kovahongore vayo: “Kamu nokutjiwa kutja ndino mwa ṱu omuhongore omunene mOisrael are? 39 Nungwari hiya ninga omasa, nandarire kutja mba twirisiwa okurira ombara; novarumendu mbo, ovazandu va Seruja, owo ovatwe pu ami. Muhona nga sutise ingwi omutjite wouvi otja kouvi we.”

Abner ta gama kuDavid
6 Ekondjo sho lya tsikile pokati kaapopili yegumbo lyaDavid naapopili yegumbo lyaSaul, Abner okwa ningi omunankondo maalanduli yaSaul.
7 Esiku limwe Ishboshet yaSaul okwa nyenyetele Abner omolwokulala nohonda yaSaul, edhina lyayo Rizpa yaAja. 8 Shika osha geyitha Abner e ta ti: “Oto dhiladhila kutya ote gwaaleke Saul? Oto dhiladhila shili kutya otandi longele Juda?” Okwi igidha a ti: “Okuza koshitonale onda simanekwa mokulongela ho Saul, aamwayina nookuume ke, nonde ku hupitha kedhengo lyaDavid; ihe nena oto pe ndje ombedhi omolwomukulukadhi! 9-10 Omuwa okwa uvanekele David kutya ota kutha ko oshilongo kuSaul noluvalo lwe nota ningi David omukwaniilwa gwaIsrael naJuda, okuza kuDan sigo oBeersheba. Ngashingeyi Kalunga na geele ndje ndi se, ngele ite kwathele shika shi gwanithwe!” 11 Ishboshet okwa li a kankwa a tila Abner ye ina vula we okutya sha.
12 Abner okwa tumu aatumwa kuDavid, ngoka a li muHebron pethimbo ndyoka, ya tye: “Olye ta ka lela oshilongo shika? Ninga euvathano nangame, notandi ke ku kwatha okusinda Israel alihe, li game kungoye.”
13 David okwa yamukula a ti: “Onawa! Otandi ka ninga euvathano nangoye, ihe ongele to etelele Mikal, omuna gwaSaul, uuna to ya kungame.” 14 David okwa tumu wo aatumwa kuIshboshet, ya tye: “Galulila ndje mukadhandje Mikal. Onde mu futa uupa wuulumentu wAafilisti ethele, opo ndi mu hokane.” 15 Ishboshet okwa kutha ko Mikal komulume Paltiel yaLajish. 16 Paltiel okwe mu landula ondjila ayihe, sigo okoshilando Bahurim, e ende ta lili. Ihe Abner sho a ti: “Shuna kegumbo,” okwa yi kegumbo.
17 Abner okwa yi kaawiliki yaIsrael nokwa ti kuyo: “Omwa kala mwa tegelela nale ethimbo ele, David a ninge omukwaniilwa gweni. 18 Ngashingeyi olweedhe olweni. Dhimbulukweni kutya Omuwa okwa ti: ‘Otii ka longitha omumati gwandje David, a mangulule aantu yandje Aaisraeli miikaha yAafilisti noyaatondi yawo ayehe yalwe.’ ” 19 Abner okwa popitha wo aantu yezimo lyaBenjamin, nena okwa yi kuHebron, a lombwele David shoka Aabenjamin nAaisraeli ya zimine, ya ninge.
20 Abner sho e ya kuDavid puHebron e na aalumentu omilongo mbali, David okwe ya hangele oshituthi. 21 Abner okwa lombwele David a ti: “Otandi ke ku sindila Aaisraeli ayehe, Nkeyama. Otaye ke ku taamba, u ninge omukwaniilwa gwawo, nonena oto ka kala u na shoka wa hala e to ka lela evi alihe.” Nena David okwa laleke Abner, a ye nombili.
Abner ta dhipagwa
22 Konima Joab naambala yalwe yaDavid oya galuka kekumbu noye etelele iihakanwa oyindji. Abner ina kala we muHebron puDavid, oshoka David okwa li e mu laleke nombili. 23 Joab naantu ye sho ya thiki, okwa lombwelwa kutya Abner okwi ile komukwaniilwa, David nokwe mu etha a ye nombili. 24 Nena Joab a yi komukwaniilwa e ta ti kuye: “Owa ningi shike? Abner e ya kungoye; omolwashike we mu etha ngawo? 25 Ku wete kutya okwe ya huka oku ku kotokela, a ndaadhe shoka to ningi naankoka to yi?”
26 Joab okwa zi puDavid nokwa tumu aatumwa, ya ka tale Abner. Oye mu galula okuza komuthima gwaSira; ihe David ine shi tseya. 27 Abner sho a thiki muHebron, Joab okwe mu kutha po e te mu fala mooha dhomweelo a fa a hala ya kundathane po. Nena okwe mu tsu mela. Osho ngaaka Abner a dhipagwa, oshoka okwa dhipagele Asael, omumwayina gwaJoab. 28 David sho e shi kundana, okwa ti: “Omuwa okwa tseya oshilongo shandje nangame mwene kandi na ondjo yombinzi yaAbner. 29 Egeelo lyayo nali lambele Joab nezimo lyawo alihe! Mezimo lye namu kale aluhe aantu ye na uuvu woshinena nenge oshilundu nenge taa endele komampango nenge taa si koomemo dhegongamwele nenge aasindjala.” 30 Osho ngaaka Joab nomumwayina Abisai ya dhipagele Abner molwiikonene, molwashoka a dhipagele omumwayina Asael molugodhi lwokuGibeon.
Efumviko lyaAbner
31 Nena David okwa lombwele Joab naantu ye, ya tuule oonguwo dhawo, ya zale omahahi noya lile Abner. Nopefumviko omukwaniilwa David okwa yi konima yomudhimba. 32 Abner okwa fumvikwa muHebron, nomukwaniilwa okwa lili pombila, naantu ayehe osho ya ningi wo. 33 David nokwi imbi oshitewo shika molwaAbner ta ti:
“Omolwashike Abner a li e na okusa ngegoya?
34 Omaako ge inaga mangwa,

okwa si ongaangoka a dhipagwa kiipululu.”
Aantu noye mu lili ishewe.
35 Esiku alihe aantu oya kambadhala, ya heke David a lye sha, ihe okwa gana a ti: “Kalunga na geele ndje ndi se, ngele te li sha, manga esiku inaali pita!” 36 Oya ndhindhilike shika noye shi hokwa. Shaa shoka omukwaniilwa a ningi, osha li sho opala momeho gaantu. 37 Aantu yaDavid ayehe naantu ayehe muIsrael oya tseya kutya omukwaniilwa ke na mbedhi yedhipago lyaAbner. 38 Omukwaniilwa okwa ti kaambala ye: “Kamu shi shi kutya esiku ndika omuwiliki omunene muIsrael okwa sa? 39 Nando ngame omukwaniilwa nda hogololwa kuKalunga, ondu uvite uunkundi nena. Aamentu mbaka yaZeruia oya alula ndje noonkondo. Omuwa na geele iipululu mbyoka, ngaashi yi ilongela.”
