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,
oompadhi dhe kadha li meti;
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.”
