Daudi na Goliyati

Yehova abwira Samweli ntya: ‘Oje emwa Yese. Muguma egarhi ka bagala bage aba mwami wa kabirhi w’e Israheli.’ Muli oko Samweli aja emwa Yese. Erhi abona mugala wa Yese mukulu, Samweli arhanya ntya: ‘Bibonekine oku oyu murhabana ye waba mwami.’ Cikone Yehova abwira Samweli oku arhali oyo ye waba mwami. Yehova aderha ntya: ‘Nandabe ebiri omu murhima gw’omuntu, ci arhali ebibonekana embuga byone.’

Yese alerhera Samweli bandi bagala bage ndarhu. Cikone Samweli aderha ntya: ‘Ntaye Yehova acishozire muli bo. K’ogwerhe abandi bana-rhabana?’ Yese aderha ntya: ‘Ngwerhe wundi muguma yene, mugala wani murho, Daudi. Anajir’iyabula ebibuzi byani.’ Erhi Daudi ayisha, Yehova abwira Samweli ntya: ‘Oyo ye waba mwami!’ Samweli ashîga Daudi amavurha okw’irhwe ly’aba mwami muhyahya w’e Israheli.

Mango maguma enyuma z’aho, Abaisraheli balwisa Abafilistini bal’igwerhe omulwi w’ivita munenene na mulî wakag’ibalwira, akag’ihamagalwa Goliyati. Ngasi lusiku Goliyati akagayaguza Abaisraheli. Akaderha ntya n’izu linene: ‘Murhume omulume walwa na nani. Akampima, rhwanaba baja binyu. Cikone nkamuhima, mwaba baja birhu.’

Daudi aja ebwa kambi k’abasoda Baisraheli erhi adwirhire bakulu bage bali basoda ebiryo. Daudi ayumva Goliyati anaderha ntya: ‘Namulwisa!’ Mwami Sauli aderha ntya: ‘Cikone ocili murho.’ Daudi ashuza ntya: ‘Yehova antabala.’

Sauli alonza okuha Daudi ebikolanwa byage by’okulwa ivita, cikone Daudi aderha ntya: ‘Ntakahasha okulwa omu kukolesa ebyo bikolanwa.’ Daudi arhôla omuzareti gwage anaja okw’iriba. Acishoga mabuye arhanu minja anagahira omu nshoho yage. Enyuma z’aho Daudi alibirhira emunda Goliyati ali. Oyo mulume munenene na mulî ayama ntya: ‘Yisha hano, we hyana-rhabana. Nakuha orhunyunyi rhw’emalunga n’ensimba z’emuzirhu bikulye.’ Daudi arhayobohaga. Ashuza ntya n’izu linene: ‘Oyishire n’engorho n’itumu, cikone niehe nyishire omw’izino lya Yehova. Arhali rhwe oli walwisa; oli walwisa Mungu. Ngasi muntu hano abona oku Yehova agwerhe misi minji kulusha engorho n’itumu. Amuhira mweshi omu maboko girhu.’

Daudi ahira ibuye omu muzareti gwage ananalikweba n’emisi yage yoshi. Kugerera oburhabale bwa Yehova, ely’ibuye lyagwasa Goliyati lyanamunanira emalanga. Oyo mulume mulî na munenene ahirima okw’idaho anafâ. Enyuma z’aho Abafilistini balibirha lyo bayokola obuzine bwabo. K’onalangalire Yehova nk’oku Daudi ajiraga?
