1 Youa: be da Da: ibidi da A: basalomeha fofagi gala, amo dawa: i.
And Joab the son of Sarvia, understanding that the king’s heart was turned to Absalom,
2 Amaiba: le, e da bagade dawa: su uda Degoua moilaia esalu, amo ema misa: ne sia: si. Amo uda da ema doaga: loba, e da udama amane sia: i, “Di ogogole dinanuyale dawa: ma: ne agoane hamoma. Dawa: digima: ne abula eboboi ga: ma. Dia dialuma hinabo mae fesega: ma! Di da udaga gebewane heawini dinanebe defele hamoma!
Sent to Thecua, and fetched from thence a wise woman: and said to her: Feign thyself to be a mourner, and put on mourning apparel, and be not anointed with oil, that thou mayest be as a woman that had a long time been mourning for one dead.
3 Amasea, hina bagade ema asili, na dima adomu amo ema sia: ma.” Amalalu, Youa: be da ema amo sia: sia: ma: ne olelei.
And thou shalt go in to the king, and shalt speak to him in this manner. And Joab put the words in her mouth.
4 Amo uda da hina bagadema asili, ema nodoma: ne osobaga beguduli, amane sia: i, “Hina noga: idafa! Dia na fidima!”
And when the woman of Thecua was come in to the king, she fell before him upon the ground, and worshipped, and said: Save me, O king.
5 Da: ibidi da ema amane sia: i, “Di adilamusa: la: ?” Uda da bu adole i, “Hina! Na da hame gagui didalo. Nagoa da bogoi dagoi.
And the king said to her: What is the matter with thee? She answered: Alas, I am a widow woman: for my husband is dead.
6 Hina! Na da nagofe aduna galu. Eso afaega, ela da bugili nasu sogega sia: ga gegei. Ela afafama: ne gaga: mu dunu afae hame ba: i. Amola nagofe afae da eno amo ea fane legei dagoi.
And thy handmaid had two sons: and they quarrelled with each other in the field, and there was none to part them: and the one struck the other, and slew him.
7 Amola wali, hina, na sosogo huluane da nama mae asigili, nagofe eno amo ilia fuga: musa: , ilima ima: ne sia: sa. Bai e da ea hobe medole legei, ilia sia: sa. Ilia da amane hamosea, na da mano hamedafa esalebe ba: mu. Amai galea, nama dafawane hamoma: beyale dawa: lusu huluane da fisi dagoi ba: mu. Amola, nagoa ea dio da osobo bagadega hame adolalumu.”
And behold the whole kindred rising against thy handmaid, saith: Deliver him that hath slain his brother, that we may kill him for the life of his brother, whom he slew, and that we may destroy the heir: and they seek to quench my spark which is left, and will leave my husband no name, nor remainder upon the earth.
8 Hina bagade da bu adole i, “Di diasuga buhagima. Na da amo liligi hahamomu.”
And the king said to the woman: Go to thy house, and I will give charge concerning thee.
9 Uda da amane sia: i, “Hina noga: i! Dia adi hamosea, na sosogo amola na da amo ninia hamoi fawane sia: mu. Di amola hina bagade ea sosogo amola da giadofale hamedafa hamoi ba: mu.”
And the woman of Thecua said to the king: Upon me, my lord, be the iniquity, and upon the house of my father: but may the king and his throne be guiltless.
10 Hina bagade da bu adole i, “Nowa dunu da dima magagisia, amo nama oule misa! Amasea, amo dunu da dima bu se nabasu hamedafa imunu.”
And the king said: If any one shall say ought against thee, bring him to me, and be shall not touch thee any more.
11 Uda da amane sia: i, “Hina noga: idafa! Na sosogo fi dunu afae amo da nagofe ea bogoi dabe imunusa: ilegei. E da nagofe eno fane legele amola musa: wadela: i hou da baligi dagoi ba: sa: besa: le, di da dia Hina Godema sia: ne gadoma.” Da: ibidi da bu adole i, “Na da Fifi Ahoanusu Hina Gode Ea Dioba: le amane ilegesa. Diagofe da se hamedafa nabimu.”
And she said: Let the king remember the Lord his God, that the next of kin be not multiplied to take revenge, and that they may not kill my son. And he said: As the Lord liveth, there shall not one hair of thy son fall to the earth.
12 Uda da amane sia: i, “Hina noga: idafa! Na da eno afae fawane sia: mu da defeala: ?” E bu adole i, “Defea! Sia: ma!”
Then the woman said: Let thy handmaid speak one word to my lord the king. And he said: Speak.
13 Uda da Da: ibidima amane sia: i, “Dia da abuliba: le Gode Ea fi dunuma wadela: le hamosala: ? Dia da abuliba: le dia mano mugululi asi amo ea buhagimu logo hame doasibala: ? Di da dia waha sia: i amoga dia hou fofada: nanu, disu da giadofai dagoi sia: sa.
And the woman said: Why hast thou thought such a thing against the people of God, and why hath the king spoken this word, to sin, and not bring home again his own exile?
14 Ninia huluanedafa da bogosu ba: mu. Ninia da hano osoboga adasa: i agoane, bu lamu da hamedei. Gode Hi amolawane da bogoi dunu bu esaloma: ne hame hamosa. Be di, hina bagade, da dunu mugululi asi, amo ea buhagimu logo doasimusa: dawa:
We all die, and like waters that return no more, we fall down into the earth: neither will God have a soul to perish, but recalleth, meaning that he that is cast off should not altogether perish.
15 Hina noga: idafa! Na da dima sia: na misi, amo ea bai da na sosogo ilia da nama magagi. Amaiba: le, na da nisu amoma na dima asili sia: ma: ne dawa: i. Di da na adole ba: su hamoma: ne, na da dawa: i galu.
Now therefore I am come, to speak this word to my lord the king before the people. And thy handmaid said: I will speak to the king, it maybe the king will perform the request of his handmaid.
16 Na da amane dawa: i, `Hina bagade da na sia: nabimu. Amola e da dunu amo da nagofe fuga: musa: amola na sosogodafa soge amo Gode da Ea fi ilima i, amoga fadegamusa: dawa: lala, hina bagade da amo dunuma nagofe mae fuga: ma: ne gemu,’ na agoane dawa: i.
And the king hath hearkened to me to deliver his handmaid out of the hand of all that would destroy me and my son together out of the inheritance of God.
17 Na da nisu sia: i, `Dafawane, hina noga: idafa! Dia dafawane ilegesu da na gaga: mu.’ Bai hina bagade da Gode Ea a: igele agoane amola e da hou ida: iwane amola wadela: i hou amo afafamusa: dawa: Dia Hina Gode da ali esalumu da defea!”
Then let thy handmaid say, that the word of the Lord the king be made as a sacrifice. For even as an angel of God, so is my lord the king, that he is neither moved with blessing nor cursing: wherefore the Lord thy God is also with thee.
18 Hina bagade da bu adole i, “Na da dima adole ba: mu gala. Sia: huluanedafa molole olelema!” Uda da amane sia: i, “Hina noga: idafa! Dia hanaiga nama adole ba: ma!”
And the king answering, said to the woman: Hide not from me the thing that I ask thee. And the woman said to him: Speak, my lord the king.
19 Da: ibidi da ema amane adole ba: i. “Di da Youa: be ea sia: beba: le, amo hou hamobela: ?” E bu adole i, “Hina noga: idafa! Na da sema liligi huluane amoba: le sia: sa. Na da dima molole adole imunu logo fawane ba: sa. Dafawane! Dia eagene ouligisu dunu Youa: be, hi da na dima agoane sia: ma: ne sia: i.
And the king said: Is not the hand of Joab with thee in all this? The woman answered, and said: By the health of thy soul, my lord, O king, it is neither on the left hand, nor on the right, in all these things which my lord the king hath spoken: for thy servant Joab, he commanded me, and he put all these words into the mouth of thy handmaid.
20 Be e da hou moloma: ne agoane hamoi. Hina noga: idafa! Di da Gode Ea a: igele dunu defele asigi dawa: su bagade gala. Di da liligi hamonanebe huluane dawa:”
That I should come about with this form of speech, thy servant Joab, commanded this: but thou, my lord, O king, art wise, according to the wisdom of ail angel of God, to understand all things upon earth.
21 Amogalu fa: no, hina bagade da Youa: bema amane sia: i, “Na da dia hanai hamoma: ne ilegei dagoi. Dia asili, goi ayeligi A: basalome lalalu, guiguda: oule misa!”
And the king said to Joab: Behold I am appeased and have granted thy request: Go therefore and fetch back the boy Absalom.
22 Youa: be da Da: ibidima nodoma: ne, ea midadi osoba gala: la sa: ili, amane sia: i, “Hina noga: idafa! Hina Gode da dima hahawane dogolegele hamomu da defea! Di da na adole ba: i defele hamomuba: le, di da nama hahawane gala, amo na dawa:”
And Joab falling down to the ground upon his face, adored, and blessed the king: and Joab said: This day thy servant hath understood, that I have found grace in thy sight, my lord, O king: for thou hast fulfilled the request of thy servant.
23 Amalalu, e da wa: legadole, Gesie sogega asili, A:basalome amo Yelusaleme moilai bai bagadega bu oule misi.
Then Joab arose and went to Gessur, and brought Absalom to Jerusalem.
24 Be hina bagade da A: basalome e hina bagade diasu amoga mae golama: ne sia: i. Da: ibidi da amane sia: i, “Na da ea odagi hamedafa ba: mu galebe.” Amaiba: le, A:basalome da hi diasua esalu. E da hina bagade hame ba: la asi.
But the king said: Let him return into his house, and let him not see my face. So Absalom returned into his house, and saw not the king’s face.
25 A: basalome ea da: i da noga: iwane ba: su. Isala: ili soge ganodini, dunu eno e agoai hame ba: i. Ea dialuma gadonini sa: ili, emoa guduli da bobonomai fawane ba: su.
But in all Israel there was not a man so comely, and so exceedingly beautiful as Absalom: from the sole of the foot to the crown of his head there was no blemish in him.
26 Ea dialuma hinabo da gesoma agoane amola e da ode huluane amoga afaega ea dialuma hinabo dadamusu. Bai ea hinabo da sedadedafa amola dioi bagade ba: su. Amo hinabo ea dioi defei, da ilia hina bagade ea ilegei defele ba: su. Defei da gilougala: me aduna agoane ba: su.
And when he polled his hair (now he was polled once a year, because his hair was burdensome to him) he weighed the hair of his head at two hundred sicles, according to the common weight.
27 A: basalome da egefelali udiana amola idiwi afae galu. Ea idiwi ea dio amo da Da: ima. E da isisima: goi ba: su uda esalu.
And there were born to Absalom three sons: and one daughter, whose, name was Thamar, and she was very beautiful.
28 A: basalome da ode adunaga, hina bagade mae ba: le, Yelusaleme moilai bai bagade ganodini esalu.
And Absalom dwelt two years in Jerusalem, and saw not the king’s face.
29 Amalalu, A:basalome da Youa: be ema misa: ne sia: i. E da Youa: be amo A: basalome ea hou olelema: ne, hina bagadema asunasimusa: dawa: i galu. Be Youa: be da ema hame misi. A: basalome da bu Youa: be ema misa: ne sia: i, be Youa: be da bu hame misunu sia: i.
He sent therefore to Joab, to send him to the king: but he would not come to him. And when he had sent the second time, and he would not come to him,
30 Amaiba: le, A:basalome da ea hawa: hamosu dunu ilima amane sia: i, “Ba: ma! Youa: be ea bugili nasu soge da na soge bega: gala. Amo ganodini da `bali’ bugi dialebe. Dilia amoga asili laluga ulugagisima!” Amaiba: le, ilia da asili bugili nasu soge laluga ulugagisi.
He said to his servants: You know the field of Joab near my field, that hath a crop of barley: go now and set it on fire. So the servants of Absalom set the corn on fire. And Joab’s servants coming with their garments rent, said: The servants of Absalom have set part of the field on fire.
31 Youa: be da A: basalome ea diasuga asili, ougili amane adole ba: i, “Dia hawa: hamosu dunu da abuliba: le na bugili nasu soge ulugagibala: ?”
Then Joab arose, and came to Absalom to his house, and said: Why have thy servants set my corn on fire?
32 A: basalome da bu adole i, “Bai na da di nama misa: ne sia: i. Be di da hame misi. Na da di hina bagade ema asunasili, ema na sia: amane adole ba: ma: ne dawa: i, `Na da abuliba: le Gesie soge fisili, guiguda: misibala: ? Na amogawi esalumu da defea galu.” Amola A: basalome da eno amane sia: i, “Dia da na amo hina bagade ba: ma: ne, logo hamoma. Be e da na wadela: i hamosu dunu agoai ba: sea, e da na fane legema: ne sia: mu da defea.”
And Absalom answered Joab: I sent to thee beseeching thee to come to me, that I might send thee to the king, to say to him: Wherefore am I come from Gessur? it had been better for me to be there: I beseech thee therefore that I may see the face of the king: and if he be mindful of my iniquity, let him kill me.
33 Amaiba: le, Youa: be da hina bagade Da: ibidima asili, A:basalome ea sia: i liligi olelei. Hina bagade e da A: basalome ema misa: ne sia: i. A: basalome da ema asili, ea midadi osoba begudui. Hina bagade da ema hahawane yosia: le, nonogoi.
So Joab going in to the king, told him all: and Absalom was called for, and he went in to the king: and prostrated himself on the ground before him: and the king kissed Absalom.
