2 صَمُوئيل 2
| ثُمَّ اسْتَشَارَ دَاوُدُ الرَّبَّ: «هَلْ أَتَوَجَّهُ إِلَى إِحْدَى مُدُنِ يَهُوذَا؟» فَأَجَابَهُ الرَّبُّ: «اذْهَبْ». فَسَأَلَ: «إِلَى أَيَّةِ مَدِينَةٍ؟» فَأَجَابَهُ: «إِلَى حَبْرُونَ». | ١ 1 |
And it came to pass after this, that David enquired of the LORD, saying, Shall I go up into any of the cities of Judah? And the LORD said unto him, Go up. And David said, Where shall I go up? And he said, Unto Hebron.
| فَانْطَلَقَ دَاوُدُ إِلَى هُنَاكَ بصُحْبَةِ زَوْجَتَيْهِ أَخِينُوعَمَ الْيَزْرَعِيلِيَّةِ وَأَبِيجَايِلَ أَرْمَلَةِ نَابَالَ الْكَرْمَلِيِّ. | ٢ 2 |
So David went up thither, and his two wives also, Ahinoam the Jezreelitess, and Abigail Nabal's wife the Carmelite.
| وَاصْطَحَبَ مَعَهُ رِجَالَهُ وَأَهْلَ بُيُوتِهِمْ، فَأَقَامُوا فِي مُدُنِ حَبْرُونَ. | ٣ 3 |
And his men that were with him did David bring up, every man with his household: and they dwelt in the cities of Hebron.
| وَجَاءَ رِجَالُ يَهُوذَا فَنَصَّبُوا دَاوُدَ مَلِكاً عَلَيْهِمْ. وَعِنْدَمَا عَلِمَ دَاوُدُ أَنَّ رِجَالَ يَابِيشَ جِلْعَادَ هُمُ الَّذِينَ دَفَنُوا شَاوُلَ، | ٤ 4 |
And the men of Judah came, and there they anointed David king over the house of Judah. And they told David, saying, That the men of Jabeshgilead were they that buried Saul.
| بَعَثَ إِلَيْهِمْ بِرُسُلٍ قَائِلاً: «لِتَكُونُوا مُبَارَكِينَ مِنَ الرَّبِّ لأَنَّكُمْ صَنَعْتُمْ هَذَا الْمَعْرُوفَ بِسَيِّدِكُمْ شَاوُلَ فَدَفَنْتُمُوهُ. | ٥ 5 |
And David sent messengers unto the men of Jabeshgilead, and said unto them, Blessed be all of you of the LORD, that all of you have showed this kindness unto your lord, even unto Saul, and have buried him.
| فَلْيُكَافِئْكُمُ الرَّبُّ إِحْسَاناً وَخَيْراً، وَأَنَا أَيْضاً أُجَازِيكُمْ خَيْراً لِقَاءَ حُسْنِ عَمَلِكُمْ. | ٦ 6 |
And now the LORD show kindness and truth unto you: and I also will requite you this kindness, because all of you have done this thing.
| وَالآنَ تَشَجَّعُوا وَكُونُوا أَبْطَالاً لأَنَّ سَيِّدَكُمْ مَاتَ، وَقَدْ نَصَّبَنِي بَيْتُ يَهُوذَا مَلِكاً عَلَيْكُمْ». | ٧ 7 |
Therefore now let your hands be strengthened, and be all of you valiant: for your master Saul is dead, and also the house of Judah have anointed me king over them.
| وَأَمَّا أَبْنَيْرُ بْنُ نَيْرٍ قَائِدُ جَيْشِ شَاوُلَ فَأَخَذَ إِيشْبُوشَثَ بْنَ شَاوُلَ وَاجْتَازَ بِهِ الأُرْدُنَّ إِلَى مَحَنَايِمَ، | ٨ 8 |
But Abner the son of Ner, captain of Saul's host, took Ishbosheth the son of Saul, and brought him over to Mahanaim;
| وَأَقَامَهُ مَلِكاً عَلَى الْجِلْعَادِيِّينَ وَالأَشِيرِيِّينَ وَالْيَزْرَعِيلِيِّينَ وَعَلَى بَنِي أَفْرَايِمَ وَبَنِي بِنْيَامِينَ وَسَائِرِ إِسْرَائِيلَ. | ٩ 9 |
And made him king over Gilead, and over the Ashurites, and over Jezreel, and over Ephraim, and over Benjamin, and over all Israel.
| وَكَانَ إِيشْبُوشَثُ بْنُ شَاوُلَ فِي الأَرْبَعِينَ مِنْ عُمْرِهِ حِينَ مَلَكَ عَلَى إِسْرَائِيلَ، وَظَلَّ فِي الْحُكْمِ سَنَتَيْنِ، أَمَّا سِبْطُ يَهُوذَا فَقَدِ الْتَفَّ حَوْلَ دَاوُدَ. | ١٠ 10 |
Ishbosheth Saul's son was forty years old when he began to reign over Israel, and reigned two years. But the house of Judah followed David.
| وَمَلَكَ دَاوُدُ فِي حَبْرُونَ عَلَى سِبْطِ يَهُوذَا سَبْعَ سَنَوَاتٍ وَسِتَّةَ أَشْهُرٍ. | ١١ 11 |
And the time that David was king in Hebron over the house of Judah was seven years and six months.
| وَتوَجَّهَ أَبْنَيْرُ بْنُ نَيْرٍ مَعَ بَعْضِ قُوَّاتِ إِيشْبُوشَثَ مِنْ مَحَنَايِمَ إِلَى جِبْعُونَ، | ١٢ 12 |
And Abner the son of Ner, and the servants of Ishbosheth the son of Saul, went out from Mahanaim to Gibeon.
| وَكَذَلِكَ خَرَجَ يُوآبُ بْنُ صُرُوِيَّةَ مَعَ بَعْضِ قُوَّاتِ دَاوُدَ فَالْتَقَوْا جَمِيعاً عِنْدَ بِرْكَةِ جِبْعُونَ، فَجَلَسَ كُلُّ فَرِيقٍ مُقَابِلَ الآخَرِ عَلَى جَانِبَيِ الْبِرْكَةِ. | ١٣ 13 |
And Joab the son of Zeruiah, and the servants of David, went out, and met together by the pool of Gibeon: and they sat down, the one on the one side of the pool, and the other on the other side of the pool.
| فَقَالَ أَبْنَيْرُ لِيُوآبَ: «لِيَقُمْ جُنُودُنَا لِلْمُبَارَزَةِ أَمَامَنَا». فَأَجَابَ يُوآبُ: لِيَقُومُوا. | ١٤ 14 |
And Abner said to Joab, Let the young men now arise, and play before us. And Joab said, Let them arise.
| فَهَبَّ اثْنَا عَشَرَ رَجُلاً مِنْ بَنِي بِنْيَامِينَ مِنْ أَتْبَاعِ إِيشْبُوشَثَ وَاثْنَا عَشَرَ مِنْ قُوَّاتِ دَاوُدَ. | ١٥ 15 |
Then there arose and went over by number twelve of Benjamin, which pertained to Ishbosheth the son of Saul, and twelve of the servants of David.
| وَاشْتَبَكَ كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ مَعَ نَدِّهِ وَأَغْمَدَ سَيْفَهُ فِيهِ، فَمَاتُوا جَمِيعاً. وَدُعِيَ ذَلِكَ الْمَوْضِعُ «حِلْقَثَ هَصُّورِيمَ» (وَمَعْنَاهُ حَقْلُ السُّيُوفِ). الَّتِي هِيَ فِي جِبْعُونَ. | ١٦ 16 |
And they caught every one his fellow by the head, and thrust his sword in his fellow's side; so they fell down together: wherefore that place was called Helkathhazzurim, which is in Gibeon.
| وَاشْتَدَّ الْقِتَالُ فِي ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمِ، فَانْكَسَرَ أَبْنَيْرُ وَرِجَالُهُ أَمَامَ قُوَّاتِ دَاوُدَ. | ١٧ 17 |
And there was a very sore battle that day; and Abner was beaten, and the men of Israel, before the servants of David.
| وَكَانَ مِنْ جُمْلَةِ رِجَالِ دَاوُدَ هُنَاكَ أَبْنَاءُ صُرُوِيَّةَ: يُوآبُ وَأَبِيشَايُ وَعَسَائِيلُ. وَكَانَ عَسَائِيلُ سَرِيعَ الْعَدْوِ كَالْغَزَالِ الْبَرِّيِّ. | ١٨ 18 |
And there were three sons of Zeruiah there, Joab, and Abishai, and Asahel: and Asahel was as light of foot as a wild roe.
| فَتَعَقَّبَ عَسَائِيلُ أَبْنَيْرَ وَلَمْ يَمِلْ عَنْهُ يَمْنَةً أَوْ يَسْرَةً. | ١٩ 19 |
And Asahel pursued after Abner; and in going he turned not to the right hand nor to the left from following Abner.
| فَالْتَفَتَ أَبْنَيْرُ وَرَاءَهُ وَتَسَاءَلَ: «هَلْ أَنْتَ عَسَائِيلُ؟» فَأَجَابَ: «أَنَا هُوَ». | ٢٠ 20 |
Then Abner looked behind him, and said, Are you Asahel? And he answered, I am.
| فَقَالَ لَهُ: «تَنَحَّ عَنِّي وَاقْبِضْ عَلَى أَحَدِ الرِّجَالِ الآخَرِينَ وَاسْلُبْهُ سِلاحَهُ». غَيْرَ أَنَّ عَسَائِيلَ ظَلَّ يَسْعَى فِي أَثَرِهِ. | ٢١ 21 |
And Abner said to him, Turn you aside to your right hand or to your left, and lay you hold on one of the young men, and take you his armour. But Asahel would not turn aside from following of him.
| ثُمَّ عَادَ أَبْنَيْرُ يُلِحُّ عَلَى عَسَائِيلَ أَنْ يَكُفَّ عَنْهُ قَائِلاً: «لِمَاذَا تَدْفَعُنِي إِلَى قَتْلِكَ؟ وَكَيْفَ يُمْكِنُنِي أَنْ أُوَاجِهَ أَخَاكَ يُوآبَ إذَا قَتَلْتُكَ؟» | ٢٢ 22 |
And Abner said again to Asahel, Turn you aside from following me: wherefore should I strike you to the ground? how then should I hold up my face to Joab your brother?
| لَكِنَّ عَسَائِيلَ أَبَى أَنْ يَتَنَحَّى عَنْهُ، فَطَعَنَهُ أَبْنَيْرُ بِعَقِبِ الرُّمْحِ، فَغَاصَ الرُّمْحُ فِي بَطْنِهِ وَخَرَجَ مِنْ ظَهْرِهِ، فَوَقَعَ صَرِيعاً وَمَاتَ فِي مَكَانِهِ. فَكَانَ كُلُّ مَنْ يَمُرُّ بِالْمَوْضِعِ الَّذِي صُرِعَ فِيهِ عَسَائِيلُ يَتَوَقَّفُ عِنْدَهُ. | ٢٣ 23 |
Nevertheless he refused to turn aside: wherefore Abner with the hinder end of the spear stroke him under the fifth rib, that the spear came out behind him; and he fell down there, and died in the same place: and it came to pass, that as many as came to the place where Asahel fell down and died stood still.
| وَطَارَدَ يُوآبُ وَأَبِيشَايُ أَبْنَيْرَ حَتَّى مَغِيبِ الشَّمْسِ حَيْثُ أَتَيَا إِلَى تَلِّ أَمَّةَ مُقَابِلَ جِيحَ الوَاقِعَةِ عَلَى طَرِيقِ صَحْرَاءِ جِبْعُونَ. | ٢٤ 24 |
Joab also and Abishai pursued after Abner: and the sun went down when they were come to the hill of Ammah, that lies before Giah by the way of the wilderness of Gibeon.
| فَاجْتَمَعَ أَبْنَاءُ بِنْيَامِينَ وَرَاءَ أَبْنَيْرَ فِي قُوَّةٍ وَاحِدَةٍ وَاصْطَفُّوا عَلى رَأْسِ تَلٍّ وَاحِدٍ. | ٢٥ 25 |
And the children of Benjamin gathered themselves together after Abner, and became one troop, and stood on the top of an hill.
| فَنَادَى أَبْنَيْرُ يُوآبَ قَائِلاً: «أَيَنْبَغِي لِلسَّيْفِ أَنْ يَظَلَّ يَنْهَشُ إِلَى الأَبَدِ؟ أَلَمْ تَعْلَمْ أَنَّ عَاقِبَةَ الْقِتَالِ هِي مَرَارَةٌ؟ فَإِلَى مَتَى لَا تَأْمُرُ جَيْشَكَ بِالارْتِدَادِ عَنْ إِخْوَتِهِمْ؟» | ٢٦ 26 |
Then Abner called to Joab, and said, Shall the sword devour for ever? know you not that it will be bitterness in the latter end? how long shall it be then, before you bid the people return from following their brethren?
| فَقَالَ يُوآبُ: «حَيٌّ هُوَ اللهُ فَإِنَّهُ لَوْ لَمْ تَتَكَلَّمْ لَتَعَقَّبَ رِجَالِي فِي الصَّبَاحِ إِخْوَتَهُمْ». | ٢٧ 27 |
And Joab said, As God lives, unless you had spoken, surely then in the morning the people had gone up every one from following his brother.
| وَنَفَخَ يُوآبُ بِالْبُوقِ فَكَفَّ جَمِيعُ جَيْشِهِ عَنْ مُطَارَدَةِ الإِسْرَائِيلِيِّينَ وَامْتَنَعُوا عَنِ الْمُحَارَبَةِ. | ٢٨ 28 |
So Joab blew a trumpet, and all the people stood still, and pursued after Israel no more, neither fought they any more.
| فَانْطَلَقَ أَبْنَيْرُ وَرِجَالُهُ طَوَالِ اللَّيْلِ عَبْرَ وَادِي الأُرْدُنِّ وَظَلُّوا يَجِدُّونَ فِي السَّيْرِ إِلَى أَنْ بَلَغُوا مَحَنَايِمَ. | ٢٩ 29 |
And Abner and his men walked all that night through the plain, and passed over Jordan, and went through all Bithron, and they came to Mahanaim.
| وَرَجَعَ يُوآبُ عَنْ أَبْنَيْرَ، وَجَمَّعَ جَيْشَهُ، فَوَجَدَ أَنَّ الْمَفْقُودِينَ مِنْ قُوَّاتِ دَاوُدَ تِسْعَةَ عَشَرَ رَجُلاً بِالإِضَافَةِ إِلى عَسَائِيلَ. | ٣٠ 30 |
And Joab returned from following Abner: and when he had gathered all the people together, there lacked of David's servants nineteen men and Asahel.
| أَمَّا الَّذِينَ مَاتُوا مِنَ الْبَنْيَامِينِيِّينَ وَمِنْ رِجَالِ أَبْنَيْرَ عَلَى أَيْدِي قُوَّاتِ دَاوُدَ فَكَانُوا ثَلاثَ مِئَةً وَسِتِّينَ رَجُلاً. | ٣١ 31 |
But the servants of David had smitten of Benjamin, and of Abner's men, so that three hundred and threescore men died.
| وَنَقَلُوا عَسَائِيلَ وَدَفَنُوهُ فِي قَبْرِ أَبِيهِ فِي بَيْتِ لَحْمٍ. وَسَارَ يُوآبُ وَرِجَالُهُ اللَّيْلَ كُلَّهُ حَتَّى وَصَلُوا حَبْرُونَ عِنْدَ الْفَجْرِ. | ٣٢ 32 |
And they took up Asahel, and buried him in the tomb of his father, which was in Bethlehem. And Joab and his men went all night, and they came to Hebron at break of day.
