2 Sa:miuele 18
1 Hina bagade Da: ibidi da ea dunu huluane gegedole, afafane, dunu gilisisu idi afae afae amo da 1,000 amola gilisisu eno ilia idi afae afae da 100 agoane ilegele gagai. Amo gilisisu ouligima: ne, e da ouligisu dunu ilegele gagai.
And David mustered the people who were with him, and appointed commanders of thousands and commanders of hundreds over them.
2 Amalalu, e da gilisisu udiana hamone, ili gadili asunasi. Gilisisu udiana ilia ouligisu dunu da Youa: be amola ea eya Abisia: i amola Ga: de dunu Idai. Amola Da: ibidi da amane sia: i, “Na amola nini masunu.”
David divided the army into three, a third part under the hand of Joab, and a third part under the hand of Abishai the son of Zeruiah, Joab's brother, and a third part under the hand of Ittai the Gittite. The king said to the people, "I will surely go forth with you myself also."
3 Be ilia da bu adole i, “Di da nini hame masunu. Ninisu da beba: le hobeasea, o ninia dogoa mogili fane legei ba: sea, ninia ha lai da hame dawa: mu. Be di da nini dunu 10,000 agoanega fawane defele ba: sa. Di da guiguda: moilaiga esalu, ninima fidisu asunasima: ne, ouesalumu da defea.”
But they said, "You must not go out, for if we retreat, no one will care about us. If half of us die, no one will care about us. But you are worth ten thousand of us. So it is better for you to be in the city to help."
4 Da: ibidi da amane sia: i, “Dilia da amo hou da baligili noga: i dawa: beba: le, na da hamomu.” Amalalu, e da logo holei bega: leloba, ea dunu gilisisu mogili da 1,000 idi amola mogili da 100 idi, amo da gadili mogodigili asi.
The king said to them, "I will do what seems best to you." The king stood beside the gate, and all the people went out by hundreds and by thousands.
5 E da Youa: be amola Abisia: i amola Idai ilima amane sia: i, “Dilia nama asigiba: le, ayeligi A: basalome ema se mae ima.” Dadi gagui dunu huluane da sia: amo Da: ibidi da ea ouligisu dunuma sia: i, amo nabi.
The king gave this order to Joab and Abishai and Ittai, saying, "Be gentle for my sake with the young man Absalom." And all the people were listening when the king gave orders to all the commanders concerning Absalom.
6 Da: ibidi ea dadi gagui wa: i da sogega asili, Ifala: ime iwilaga Isala: ili dunuma gegei.
So the people went out into the field against Israel, and the battle took place in the forest of Ephraim.
7 Da: ibidi ea dunu da Isala: ili dunu hasali. Ilia gasa bagadewane Isala: ili dunuma hasalasi. Amo esoha, dunu 20,000 agoane da fane lelegei dagoi ba: i.
And the people of Israel were struck there before the servants of David, and a great slaughter took place that day of twenty thousand men.
8 Gegesu da soge huluane amo ganodini asi. Dunu amo da iwila ganodini bogoi ilia idi da dunu gegesu ganodini bogoi ilia idi baligi dagoi.
For the battle spread over the entire region, and the forest devoured more people that day than the sword devoured.
9 A: basalome da `miule’ amoga fila heda: le ahoanoba, hedolowane Da: ibidi ea dunu mogili ema manebe ba: i. Ea `miule’ da hehenane, `ouge’ ifaha golili asili, A:basalome ea dialuma da ifa amodaga gaguiagai. Miule da bu hehenai, be A: basalome da ea dialuma ifa amodaga fodosili hamefufua hegoa: i dialebe ba: i.
And Absalom happened to meet the servants of David. And he was riding on his mule, and the mule went under the thick branches of a great oak, and his head got caught in the oak, and he was left suspended in midair, while the mule that was under him kept going.
10 Da: ibidi ea dunu afae da amo ba: lu, Youa: bema amane adola asi, “Hina! Na da A: basalome `ouge’ ifaga fodosili hegoa: i dialebe ba: i!”
And someone saw it and told Joab, and said, "Look, I saw Absalom hanging in an oak."
11 Youa: be da bu adole i, “Dia ba: beba: le, abuliga amogaiwane e hame fane legebela: ? Na nisu da dima silifa fage nabuane amola bulu ia: noba!”
Then Joab said to the man who reported it, "Look, you saw this. So why didn't you strike him there to the ground? I would have given you ten pieces of silver, and a belt."
12 Be amo dunu da bu adole i, “Di da silifa fage 1,000 agoane nama i ganiaba, na da hina bagade egefema hame wadela: lesila: loba. Ninia huluane da hina bagade di amola Abisia: i amola Idai dilima amane sia: be nabi, `Dilia nama asigiba: le, ayeligi A: basalomema se mae ima!’
But the man said to Joab, "Even if I could feel in my hand the weight of a thousand pieces of silver in my hand, I still wouldn't lay a hand on the king's son, for in our hearing the king commanded you and Abishai and Ittai, saying, 'Be gentle for my sake with the young man Absalom.'
13 Be na da hina bagade ea sia: i mae nabawane A: basalome fane legesa ganiaba, hina bagade da amo naba: loba (e da liligi hamobe huluane naba) amaiba: le dia da na hame gaga: la: loba ba: mu.”
Otherwise, if I had dealt treacherously against his life (and there is no matter hidden from the king), then you yourself would have dissociated yourself from me."
14 Youa: be da amane sia: i, “Na da di amo hamoma: ne bu hame aligimu!” A: basalome da `ouge’ ifaga hegoa: nesi dialebe ba: le, amola Youa: be da goge agei udiana lale amoga ea bida: igia soi.
Then Joab said, "I'm not going to waste time with you." So he took three sharp sticks in his hand and thrust them into the heart of Absalom while he was still alive in the midst of the oak.
15 Amalalu, Youa: be ea dadi gagui dunu nabuane gala da gadenene misini, A:basalome bogoma: ne dabuasilisi.
Then ten young men, Joab's armor-bearers, surrounded and struck Absalom and killed him.
16 Youa: be da sia: beba: le, ilia dalabede amo gegesu dagolesima: ne fulaboi. Amola Youa: be ea dadi gagui dunu da Isala: ili dunuma se bobogelalu yolesili buhagi.
Then Joab blew the trumpet and the people turned back from pursuing Israel, for Joab had called for the people to halt.
17 Ilia da A: basalome ea da: i hodo lale, oso dogone uli dogoi ganodini sanasili, igi gegedole legei bagade, amoga dedebosi. Isala: ili dunu huluane da hobeale, afagogole, hi diasuga buhagi.
And they took Absalom and threw him into a large pit in the forest, and heaped up over him a huge pile of stones. Then all Israel fled, each one to his tent.
18 A: basalome da mae bogole esalebe galu, e da ea hamoi dawa: loma: ne, hina bagade Fagoga igiga wanonesi. Bai e da dunu mano hame amola egefe ea dio osobo bagade sia: numu hame galu. Amaiba: le, e da amo dawa: loma: ne igi wanoi amoma hina: dio asunasi. Amola amogainini wali, amoga ilia da `A: basalome ea dawa: digima: ne igi Wanoi’ amo dio sia: sa.
Now Absalom in his lifetime had taken and reared up for himself the pillar, which is in the King's Valley; for he said, "I have no son to keep my name in memory." He called the pillar after his own name; and it is called Absalom's monument, to this day.
19 Amalalu, Ahima: ia: se (Sa: idoge egefe) da Youa: bema amane sia: i, “Na da hina bagadema hehenane, sia: ida: iwane amo da Hina Gode da ea ha lai ema mae hasalima: ne e gaga: i, na da amo sia: adola masa: ne sia: ma”
Then Ahimaaz the son of Zadok said, "Let me run, let me carry the king news how that YHWH has avenged him of his enemies."
20 Youa: be da bu adole i, “Hame mabu! Di da wali eso sia: ida: iwane adomusa: hame masunu. Eso enoga da defea be wali eso hame. Bai hina bagade egefe da bogoi dagoi.”
But Joab said, "You are not to bring the news today, but you may bring news another day. But today you are to bring no news." For it was because the king's son was dead.
21 Amalalu, e da ea udigili hawa: hamosu dunu (Suda: ne soge dunu) ema amane sia: i, “Di hina bagade ema asili, dia ba: i liligi amo ema olelema.” Udigili hawa: hamosu dunu da begudili, hehenane asi.
Then Joab said to the Cushite, "Go, tell the king what you have seen." So the Cushite bowed before Joab and departed.
22 Be Ahima: ia: se da ea edegei mae fisili, bu sia: i, “Na da fa: no mabe hou hame dawa: sa. Be na amola da amo sia: adomusa: masa: ne sia: ma.” Youa: be da adole ba: i, “Nagofe! Dia abuliba: le amo hou hamomusa: hanabela: ? Di da amoga bidi hame lamu.”
Then Ahimaaz the son of Zadok said again to Joab, "Whatever happens, please let me go after the Cushite." But Joab said, "Why do you want to run, my son, since you will have no reward for the news?"
23 Ahima: ia: se da amane sia: i, “Na da fa: no mabe hou mae dawa: le masunu hanai galebe!” “Defea! Masa!” Youa: be da sia: i. Amaiba: le, Ahima: ia: se da Yoda: ne Fago gudu hehenaia sa: ili, hedolowane udigili hawa: hamosu dunu ea ahoabe baligi.
But he said, "But whatever happens, I will run." So he said to him, "Run." Then Ahimaaz ran by the way of the plain, and outran the Cushite.
24 Da: ibidi da sogebi amo da gano golili ganosu amola ga golili ganosu dogoa gala, amogawi fi esalebe ba: i. Sosodo aligisu dunu da moilai dobea da: iya gado heda: le, logo holei dabua fafai amo da: iya lelu. E da gadili ba: le galoba, dunu afae hehenanebe ba: i.
Now David was sitting between the two gates, and the watchman went up to the roof of the gate by the wall and raised his eyes and looked, and there was a man running alone towards him.
25 E da hina bagadema gudu wele sia: ne guduli, hina bagade da ema amane sia: i, “E da hisu mabeba: le, sia: noga: i adomusa: maha.” Hehenasu dunu da gebewane gagadenena manebe ba: i.
Then the watchman shouted and informed the king. And the king said, "If he is alone, there is good news in his mouth." And he kept coming nearer.
26 Amalalu, sosodo aligisu dunu da eno dunu hisu hehenanebe ba: i. E da logo holei ouligisu dunuma gudu wele sia: ne gudui, “Ba: ma! Dunu eno da hehenaiya manebe goea!” Hina bagade da bu adole i, “E amolawane da sia: ida: iwane adola maha.”
Then the watchman saw another man running. And the watchman above the gate called out, and said, "Look, another man running alone." And the king said, "He also brings good news."
27 Sosodo aligisu dunu da amane sia: i, “Na ba: loba bisili mabe dunu da Ahima: ia: se e agoai hehenanebe.” Hina bagade da amane sia: i, “E da dunu noga: i. Amola e da sia: ida: iwane adola maha.”
Then the watchman said, "I think the first runner is like the running of Ahimaaz the son of Zadok." And the king said, "He is a good man, and comes with good news."
28 Ahima: ia: se da hina bagadema asigi sia: yosia: nu, hi gobele hina bagade midadi osoba gala: la sa: ili, amane sia: , “Dia Hina Godema nodoma! Bai E da di, hina noga: i, dia ha lai odoga: be dunu amo hasalima: ne hamoi dagoi.”
And Ahimaaz came near and said to the king, "All is well." Then he bowed himself before the king with his face to the ground, and said, "Blessed is YHWH your God, who has defeated the men who opposed my lord the king."
29 Hina bagade da adole ba: i, “Ayeligi A: basalome da hahawane gaga: bela: ?” Ahima: ia: se da bu adole i, “Hina! Dia ouligisu dunu Youa: be da na asunasi mana ba: loba, na da dunu bagohame bulisa lafia: lebe ba: i, be amo ea bai na da hame dawa: i.”
And the king asked, "Is it well with the young man Absalom?" And Ahimaaz answered, "When Joab, the king's servant, sent your servant off, I saw a great commotion, but I do not know what it was."
30 Hina bagade da amane sia: i, “Gagoe aligila masa!” Amola e da amogawi asili, lelu.
Then the king said, "Step aside and stand here." So he stepped aside and waited.
31 Amalalu, Suda: ne udigili hawa: hamosu dunu da doaga: le, hina bagadema amane sia: i, “Hina noga: idafa! Na da dima sia: ida: iwane adola misi. Wali eso, Hina Gode da dima, dia ha lai lelesu dunu hasalima: ne hamoi dagoi.”
Then look, the Cushite arrived, and he said, "Good news for my lord the king, for YHWH has delivered you today from all those who rose up against you."
32 Hina bagade da amane adole ba: i, “Ayeligi A: basalome da gaga: bala:”? Udigili hawa: hamosu dunu da bu adole i, “Hina! Ema hamoi hou defele, dia ha lai amola dima odoga: su dunu huluane, ilima amane hamoi dagoi ba: mu da defea!”
Then the king asked the Cushite, "Is it well with the young man Absalom?" And the Cushite replied, "May the enemies of my lord the king and all who rise up against you with evil intent be like that young man."
33 Ea mano da bogoi nababeba: le, Da: ibidi da baligiliwane da: i dione, sesei amo da logo holeiga gadodili gala, amoga asili, dinanu. E da ahoa ha: giwane disa amane wele sia: i, “Nagofe! A: basalome! Nagofe! Nagofe! Di mae bogole, na fawane bogomu da defea galu! Nagofe! A: basalome, nagofe!”
And the king was shaken, and went up to the room over the gate and wept. And as he wept he said, "My son Absalom. My son, my son Absalom. If only I had died in your place, Absalom, my son, my son."
