1 Ndele eshi pa pita omudo umwe, pefimbo olo eehamba tadi fikama okushinga oita, David okwa tuma Joab novapiya vaye pamwe naye nOvaisraeli aveshe koita. Ndele ova hanauna oshilongo shOvaammoni ndele tava kondekele Rabba, fimbo David a fyaala muJerusalem. 2 Ndelenee komatango efiku limwe David eshi a omboloka nokwa penduka kombete yaye ndele ta ende kombada yonduda yongulu youhamba, okwa mona eshi e li konduda omukainhu te likosho. Nomukainhu okwa li e nolupe liwa. 3 Ndele David okwa tuma va pulapule omukainhu ndele kwa tiwa: oye Batseba yaEliam, omwalikadi waUria, Omuheti. 4 Opo nee David a tuma ovatumwa kuye ve ke mu tale. Ndele ye eshi e uya kuye, David okwa nangala naye, opo a hangika e lifeta molwohani yaye. Opo nee ye a shuna keumbo lavo. 5 Nomwalikadi okwa ninga oufimba nokwa tuma kuDavid e mu shiivifile: Ame nda ninga oufimba. 6 Ndele David okwa shiivifila Joab: “Tuma kwaame Uria, Omuheti. Ndele Joab okwa tuma Uria kuDavid.” 7 Uria eshi e uya kuDavid, David okwa pula ngeenge Joab oku li nawa nongeenge ovakwaita ove li nawa, noita ngeenge otai lu nawa. 8 Ndele David ta lombwele Uria: “Inda keumbo loye u koshe eemhadi doye.” Ndele Uria okwa dja kongulu youhamba noshali yohamba ye mu shikula. 9 Ndelenee Uria okwa nangala poshivelo shongulu yohamba povapiya aveshe vomwene waye, ndele ina ya keumbo laye. 10 Ndele David okwa shiivifilwa nokutya, Uria ina ya keumbo laye. Opo nee David a pula Uria: “Ove wa dja koweenda. Omolwashike ino ya keumbo loye?” 11 Ndele Uria ta ti kuDavid: “Oshikefa naIsrael naJuda ve li momatwali nomwene wange Joab novapiya vomwene wange va onga onhanda moluhaela. Ame ndi ye ngeno meumbo lange ndi lye ndi nwe nondi nangale nomwalikadi wange? Oshili, ngaashi ove u nomwenyo, nongaashi omwenyo woye u nomwenyo, ame ihandi ke shi ninga.” 12 Ndele David ta ti kuUria: “Kala apa nonena eli yo! Opo ndi ku lekele mongula.” Ndele Uria okwa kala efiku olo muJerusalem. 13 Ndelenee efiku la shikula David e mu ifana ndele ye okwa lya nokwa nwa koshipala shaye, ndele ye okwe mu kolwifa. Opo nee onguloshi ye a pita mo nokwa ya a ka nangale ponhele yaye povapiya vomwene waye. Ndelenee ina ya keumbo laye.
14 Ndele ongula David ta shangele Joab onhumwafo ndele te i tumu ko naUria. 15 Ndele ye okwa shanga onhumwafo ndele tai ti: “Tula Uria monhele yokomesho molwoodi lipyu. Opo nee tamu shuna lwanima, opo ye a dipawe molwoodi omo.” 16 Mokukondekela oshilando Joab okwa tula Uria monhele oyo a shiiva mu na ovakwanyati ovaladi. 17 Novalumenhu vomoshilando eshi va tota ndele tava lwifa Joab, movakwaita, movapiya vaDavid mwa fya vamwe, naUria yo, Omuheti, okwa fya. 18 Ndele Joab okwa tuma ko nokwa hepaululila David ashishe eshi sha ningwa molwoodi. 19 Ndelenee ye okwa lombwela omutumwa ndele ta ti: “Ove eshi wa hepaululila ohamba ashishe eshi sha ningwa molwoodi, 20 kashiimba ohamba tai handuka ndele tai ku lombwele: ‘Omolwashike mwa ya popepi noshilando okulwa? Inamu shiiva nokutya, venya vokohotekuma otava umbu? 21 Olyelye a dipaa Abimelek yaJerubeset? Omukainhu umwe ndishi wokombada yohotekuma e mu ekelele emanya loshini, onghee ye a fila muTebes? Omolwashike mwa ya unene popepi nohotekuma?’ Opo nee to ti: ‘Omupiya woye Uria, Omuheti, okwa fya yo.’ ”
22 Nomutumwa okwa ya nokwe uya ndele ta hepaululile David ashishe eshi Joab e mu lombwela. 23 Nomutumwa okwa tya kuDavid: “Ovalumenhu venya va li ve tu dule ndele va dja mo ndele ve tu totela moluhaela, ndelenee fye twe va fininika noku va shunifa fiyo okoshipala sholuvanda. 24 Opo nee ovaumbi vomauta vokohotekuma va umba kovapiya voye, opo nee ovapiya vohamba va fya. Nomupiya woye Uria, Omuheti, okwa fya yo.” 25 Opo nee David a lombwela omutumwa ndele ta ti: “U nokulombwela Joab ngaha: Oshinima eshi shihe ku etele ouyehame, osheshi eongamukonda hali lyana nokulya, nena umwe mongula omukwao. Lwifeni ashike nonyati oshilando mu shi hanaune po. Osho ngaha hano u noku mu lombwela noku mu nyatipaleka.”
26 Omwalikadi waUria eshi a uda nokutya, omulumenhu waye Uria okwa fya, okwe mu lila eefya. 27 Efimbo laye lokulila eefya eshi la umbuka, David okwa tuma ve ke mu tale ko ndele te mu tambula meumbo laye. Ndele ye a ninga omwalikadi waye nokwe mu dalela okaana okamati. Ndelenee oshinima eshi David e shi ninga, sha li shii momesho Omwene.
David na Batseba
1 Tji pa kapita ombura imwe, oruveze ozombara ndu ze yenda kovita, David otja hinda Joab novarwe ve wovita notjimbumba tjOvaisrael kovita. Nowo va kanyona ehi rOvaamoni nave kakovera otjihuro Raba. Nungwari David omuini wa kara mOjerusalem.
2 Eyuva rimwe, kuṱa kongurova, David wa penduka motjiraro tje na ryanga komututu wondjuwo ye youhona. Nu ngunda ama ryanga ngo, arire tja munu omukazendu ngu me rikoho morutu; nomukazendu ngwi wa ri omuwa tjinene. 3 Nu David wa hinda ovatumwa okukakonḓonona kutja omukazendu ngwi owaṋi; neye wa raerwa kutja oBatseba, omusuko wa Eliam, omukazendu wa Urija, Omuhetite. 4 David wa hinda ovatumwa okukemueta. Batseba wa etwa, nu David wa rara pu ye Batseba tjandje otja za komayuva we woukazendu. Tjazumba Batseba wa yaruka koye. 5 Neye we ke rimuna kutja wa rire otjingundi, notja hinda ombuze ku David okumutjivisa.
6 David wa hinda ombuze ku Joab a tja: “Ndji hindira Urija, Omuhetite.” Nu Joab otja hinda Urija ku David. 7 Urija tje ya ku David, David we mu pura kutja Joab novarwe wovita ve ri vi, nokutja ovita vi kayenda vi. 8 David wa tja nai ku Urija: “Twende konganda u kasuve.” Nu Urija tja pita mondjuwo youhona, ombara David arire tje mu hindire oviyandjewa. 9 Nungwari Urija ka ire koye; moruveze rwanao eye wa rara pomahitiro wondjuwo youhona, pamwe novakarere ovatjevere vomuhona we. 10 David tja zuva kutja Urija ka ire koye, we mu pura a tja: “Ove mo zu nambano kouyenda; okutjavi tji u ha ire koyoye?”
11 Urija wa zira nai ku David: “Otjipwikiro tjOmerikutiropamwe novarwe vOvaisrael wovita, novOvajuda ve ri movitara. Omuhongore wovita Joab novakarere ve vatono ozondanda zawo pendje, nu hapo ami me yenene vi okuyenda koyandje okukarya nokunwa nokukarara puna omukazendu wandje? Tjiri, ami himee tjiti nao!”
12 David arire tja tja ku Urija: “Ndino kara muno; nu muhuka otji me ku esa u yende.” Nu Urija wa kara eyuva ndo mOjerusalem. 13 Mependukirwa David we mu ṋanga okurya nokunwa puna ye, ne mu purukisa nomavinu. Nungwari Urija ongurova wa karara potjiraro tje puna ovakarere vomuhona we, notje ha ire koye.
14 Nu mependukirwa David wa tjanga orutuu ku Joab, ne ru yandja Urija a twaerere. 15 Nu David wa tjanga nai: “Twa Urija komurungu omarwiro ku maye rire omazeu tjinene, tjazumba mu yaruke kombunda ye kutja a ṱe motjirwa.” 16 Joab ngunda ama kovere otjihuro, arire tja twa Urija poṋa puya tjiwa kutja pe novarumendu omapenda vovanavita. 17 Novanavita tji va pita motjihuro nave rwisa Joab, arire tji va zepa ovarwe tjiva va David wovita, nu Urija wina wa ṱa.
18 Tjazumba Joab otja hinda ombuze yokukaraera David omakayendero ayehe wotjirwa. 19 Eye wa rakiza nai komuhindwa: “Tji wa zu nokuserekarera inga omakayendero aehe wotjirwa kombara David, 20 neye a ṱomazenge ne ku pura nai: ‘Okutjavi tji mwe ya popezu nai notjihuro okurwa? Kamu tjivirwe kutja owo mave mu yahere kombanda yorumbo are? 21 Kamu nakuzemburuka Abimelek, omuzandu wa Jerubbaal, tja ṱa are? Ya ri mOtebes omukazendu ma yumbira ewe kotjikweyero okuza korumbo, nari zepa Abimelek? Okutjavi tji mwe ya popezu norumbo?’ NOmbara David tje ku pura nao, mu raera nai: ‘Omukarere woye Urija wina wa ṱu.’ ”
22 Komuhingo mbwi omuhindwa ngwi otja ya ku David, e kemuserekarerera avihe Joab mbye mu rakiza. 23 Neye wa katja nai ku David: “Ovanavita va ri ovanamasa pu eṱe, nowo va piti motjihuro okuturwisira mouhaiya wokuti, nungwari twe ve undura nga pomahitiro wotjihuro. 24 Nowo otji ve tu yahere kombanda yorumbo noviku. Novarwe tjiva vombara va ṱu; nomukarere woye Urija wina wa ṱu.”
25 David arire tja tja komuhindwa: “Katjivise ku Joab kutja eye a ha ṱoruhoze notjiṋa hi, engaruvyo tjinga ari zepa ngamwa auhe. Rwisa otjihuro nu u tji nyone. Kemuyanḓiparise nao!”
26 Batseba tja zuva onḓiro vomurumendu we, arire tje mu riri. 27 Nu oruveze rwomutambo tji rwa kapita, David we mu eta koye. Nu Batseba a rire omukazendu we, ne mu pandukire omuzandu. Nungwari Muhona ka ri nohange na imbi David mbya tjita.
