2 Sa:miuele 17
1 Amogalu, Ahidoufele da A: basalomema amane sia: , “Na da dunu 12,000 agoane ilegele, wali gasia Da: ibidima doagala: musa: bobogema: ne sia: ma.
Then Ahithophel said to Absalom, “Now let me choose twelve thousand men, and I will arise and pursue David tonight.
2 E da helebeba: le amola da: i dioiba: le, na da hedolo ema doagala: le, ea dunu huluane da hobeamu. Amasea, na da hina bagade fawane fane legemu.
I will come on him while he is weary and weak and will surprise him with fear. The people who are with him will flee, and I will attack only the king.
3 Amasea, na da ea dunu huluane dima oule misunu. Ilia da uda hobeale asili bu fila mabe amo defele bu manebe ba: mu. Dunu afae fawane fane legemu da defea. Eno huluane da gaga: i dagoi ba: mu.”
I will bring back all the people to you, like a bride coming to her husband, and all the people will be at peace under you.”
4 A: basalome amola Isala: ili ouligisu dunu huluane da amo fada: i sia: hahawane nabi.
What Ahithophel said pleased Absalom and all the elders of Israel.
5 A: basalome da amane sia: i, “Wali Hiusiai amo misa: ne wele sia: ma. Ninia da ea sia: nabimu.”
Then Absalom said, “Now call Hushai the Arkite, too, and let us hear what he says.”
6 Hiusiai da doaga: loba, A:basalome da ema amane sia: i, “Ahidoufele da ninima amo fada: i sia: sia: i. Ninia amo sia: fa: no bobogema: bela: ? O amai hame galea, dia ninima logo olelema.”
When Hushai had come to Absalom, Absalom explained to him what Ahithophel had said and then asked Hushai, “Should we do what Ahithophel has said? If not, tell us what you advise.”
7 Hiusiai da bu adole i, “Fada: i sia: amo Ahidoufele da wali dilima i, amo da noga: i hame.
So Hushai said to Absalom, “The advice that Ahithophel has given this time is not good.”
8 Dilia dawa: ! Da: ibidi amola ea dunu da nimi bagade gegesu dunu. Dunu da ‘bea’ emega ea mano wamolasea, ‘bea’ da ougi bagade ba: sa. Amo defele, Da: ibidi amola ea dunu da ougi bagade gala. Dia ada da bagade dawa: su dadi gagui dunu. E da gasia ea dunu amo gilisili hame ouesala.
Hushai added, “You know your father and his men are strong warriors, and that they are bitter, and they are like a bear robbed of her cubs in a field. Your father is a man of war; he will not sleep with the army tonight.
9 Amabela: ? E da wahadafa magufu gelabo o eno sogebi amo ganodini wamo aligili esalabala? Da: ibidi da dia dunu doagala: sea, amola nowa da amo sia: nabasea, Da: ibidi da dia dunu hasali dagoi, amo sia: mu.
Look, right now he is probably hidden in some pit or in some other place. It will happen that when some of your men have been killed at the beginning of an attack, that whoever hears it will say, 'A slaughter has taken place among the soldiers who follow Absalom.'
10 Amasea, Isala: ili nimi bagade gegesu dunu, amo da laione wa: me defele beda: su hame dawa: , ilia amola da beda: igia: mu. Bai Isala: ili dunu huluanedafa da dia ada da dadi gagui dunu noga: idafa, amola ea dunu da nimi bagade gegesu dunu, amo ilia da dawa: mu.
Then even the bravest soldiers, whose hearts are like the heart of a lion, will be afraid because all Israel knows that your father is a mighty man, and that the men who are with him are very strong.
11 Na fada: i sia: da agoane. Di Isala: ili dunu huluanedafa, soge bega: asili eno bega: doaga: le, huluane lidili gegedoma. Ilia da sa: i hano wayabo bagade bega: gala, amo ea su idi agoane ba: mu. Amola disu bisili, ilima gegemusa: oule masa.
So I advise you that all Israel should be gathered together to you, from Dan to Beersheba, as numerous as the sands that are by the sea, and that you go to battle in person.
12 Ninia Da: ibidi ea esalebe sogebi hogolalu, e da nini mabe ea mae ba: le, e doagala: mu. E amola ea dunu huluanedafa da fane legei dagoi ba: mu.
Then we will come on him wherever he may be found, and we will cover him as the dew falls on the ground. We will not leave even one of his men, or him himself, alive.
13 E da hobeale, moilai bai bagade ganodini golili dasea, ninia dunu da amoga efe gaguli asili, amo moilai bai bagade, fago hagudu gala amoga hiougili gudumu. Amo moilai bai bagade ea musa: dialebe sogebi agolo da: iya, amoga igi afae dialebe hame ba: mu.”
If he retreats into a city, then all Israel will bring ropes to that city and we will drag it into the river, until there is no longer even a small stone found there.”
14 A: basalome amola Isala: ili dunu huluane da amane sia: i, “Hiusiai ea fada: i sia: i da noga: i amola Ahidoufele ea sia: i baligisa.” Hina Gode da A: basalome amola Isala: ili dunu ilia da Ahidoufele ea fada: i sia: noga: i amoma mae fa: no bobogema: ne ilegei. Bai E da A: basalome dafama: ne logo hamoi.
Then Absalom and the men of Israel said, “Hushai the Arkite's advice is better than Ahithophel's.” Yahweh had ordained the rejection of Ahithophel's good advice in order to bring destruction on Absalom.
15 Amalalu, Hiusiai da gobele salasu dunu Sa: idoge amola Abaia: da elama fada: i sia: e da A: basalome amola Isala: ili ouligisu dunuma i, amola fada: i sia: amo Ahidoufele ea i, amo elama olelei.
Then Hushai said to Zadok and to Abiathar the priests, “Ahithophel advised Absalom and the elders of Israel in such and such a way, but I have advised something else.
16 Hiusiai da eno amane sia: i, “Hadiga! Da: ibidima sia: sia: sima. E da gasia hano degesu hafoga: i sogega galu, amoga mae ouesaloma: ne sia: ma. Be e amola ea dunu da A: basalome ea dadi gagui dunuga gagulaligili fane legesa: besa: le, e wahadafa Yoda: ne Hano degema: ne sia: ma.”
Now then, go quickly and report to David; say to him, 'Do not camp tonight at the fords of the Arabah, but by all means cross over, or the king will be swallowed up along with all the people who are with him.'”
17 Abaia: da egefe Yonada: ne amola Sa: idoge egefe Ahima: ia: se ela da Enelougele hano nasu uli dogoi Yelusaleme bega: galu amoga ouesalebe ba: i. Bai ela da se nabasa: besa: le, molai bai bagade golili sa: imu da hamedei ba: i. Hawa: hamosu a: fini da eso huluane Yelusalemega hamobe hou elama olelemusa: ahoasu. Amalalu, ela da Da: ibidima alofele adomusa: ahoasu.
Now Jonathan and Ahimaaz were staying at the spring of Rogel. A female servant used to go and inform them what they needed to know, for they could not risk being seen going into the city. When the message came, then they were to go and tell King David.
18 Be eso afaega, goi afae da ela ba: le, A:basalomema adoi. Amaiba: le, ela da hehenane Bahiulimi dunu ea diasu ganodini wamoaligi. Ea diasu gadenene da hano uli dogoi dialebe ba: i. Ela da amo ganodini sa: ili, wamoaligi.
But a young man saw them this time and told Absalom. So Jonathan and Ahimaaz went away quickly and came to the house of a man in Bahurim, who had a well in his courtyard, into which they descended.
19 Bahiulimi dunu ea idua da amo uli dogoi dedeboi. Amola dunu da amo mae ba: ma: ne, dedebosu abulaga figisili, amo da: iya gagoma afagogolesi.
The man's wife took the covering for the well and spread it over the well's opening, and tossed grain over it, so no one knew Jonathan and Ahimaaz were in the well.
20 A: basalome ea eagene ouligisu dunu da amo diasuga misini, udama amane adole ba: i, “Ahima: ia: se amola Yonada: ne da habila: ?” E bu adole i, “Ela da hano degei dagoi.” A: basalome ea dunu da ela hogoi, be hame ba: i. Amaiba: le, ilia da Yelusalemega buhagi.
Absalom's men came to the woman of the house and said, “Where are Ahimaaz and Jonathan?” The woman told them, “They have crossed over the river.” So after they had looked around and could not find them, they returned to Jerusalem.
21 Ilia da yolesilalu, Ahima: ia: se amola Yonada: ne da uli dogoia gudunini heda: le, hina bagade Da: ibidima sia: musa: asi. Ela da Ahidoufele ea A: basalomema hamoma: ne ilegei Da: ibidima olelelalu, amane sia: i, “Hadiga! Hano degema!”
It came about after they had left that Jonathan and Ahimaaz came up out of the well. They went to report to King David; they said to him, “Get up and cross quickly over the water because Ahithophel has given such and such advice about you.”
22 Amaiba: le, Da: ibidi amola ea dunu da muni Yoda: ne Hano degelalu, hadigibi galu degele asi dagoi ba: i.
Then David arose and all the people who were with him, and they crossed over the Jordan. By morning daylight not one of them had failed to cross over the Jordan.
23 Ahidoufele da A: basalome amola ea dunu da ea fada: i sia: amoga hame fa: no bobogei ba: loba, e da ea dougi da: iya fisu legele, amoga fila heda: le, hi moilaidafa amoga buhagi. Amalalu, e da ea liligi huluane hahamonanu, hi gobele galogoaga gomene hegoa: nesili, bogoi dagoi. Ilia da ea da: i hodo amo ea sosogo fi ilia uli dogoiga sali.
When Ahithophel saw that his advice had not been followed, he saddled his donkey and left. He went home to his own city, set his affairs in order, and hanged himself. In this way he died and was buried in the tomb of his father.
24 A: basalome amola Isala: ili dunu da Yoda: ne Hano degei dagoloba, Da: ibidi da Ma: ihana: ime sogega doaga: i dagoi ba: i.
Then David came to Mahanaim. As for Absalom, he crossed over the Jordan, he and all the men of Israel with him.
25 (A: basalome da Ama: isa amo Youa: be ea dadi gagui wa: i ouligisu sogebi lama: ne ilegei dagoi. Ama: isa da Isiama: ile fi dunu Yidie egefe. Ea ame da A: biga: ile, Na: iha: se ea idiwi amola Youa: be ea ame Selouaia amo ea hobe).
Absalom had set Amasa over the army instead of Joab. Amasa was the son of Jether the Ishmaelite, who had slept with Abigail, who was the daughter of Nahash and sister of Zeruiah, the mother of Joab.
26 A: basalome amola ea dunu da Gilia: de soge ganodini awali wa: i fi dialu.
Then Israel and Absalom camped in the land of Gilead.
27 Da: ibidi da Ma: ihana: ime amoga doaga: loba, Sioubai (Na: iha: se egefe. E da La: ba moilai bai bagade A: mone sogega gala amoga misi) amola Ma: ige (Loudiba dunu A: miele egefe) amola Basila: iai (e da Lougilimi moilai Gilia: de sogega misi) ilia da Da: ibidi yosia: musa: misi.
It came about when David had come to Mahanaim, that Shobi son of Nahash from Rabbah of the Ammonites, and Machir son of Ammiel from Lo Debar, and Barzillai the Gileadite from Rogelim,
brought sleeping mats and blankets, bowls and pots, and wheat, barley flour, roasted grain, beans, lentils,
29 Ilia da yaeya amola osoboga hamoi ofodo amola golasu liligi amola ha: i manu, amo Da: ibidi amola ea dunuma ima: ne gaguli misi. Ilia da widi amola bali, falaua, gagoma gobei, da: iyene, da: iyene eno, agime hano, gou, dodo maga: me sefe, amola sibi gaguli misi. Bai Da: ibidi amola ea dunu da hafoga: i sogega ahoanebeba: le, ha: i amola hano hanai amola helei galu, amo ilia da dawa: i.
honey, butter, sheep, and milk curds, so that David and the people with him could eat. These men had said, “The people are hungry, weary, and thirsty in the wilderness.”
