2 Sa:miuele 3
1 Isala: ili dunu mogili da Da: ibidi ea fi fuligala: su. Mogili da Solo egaga fi fuligala: su. Amaiba: le, gegesu da bagade heda: i. Da: ibidima fuligala: su fi ilia gasa da heda: lalu, be ea ha lai ilia gasa da gududafa sa: i.
Now there was a long war between the house of Saul and the house of David: David prospering and growing always stronger and stronger, but the house of Saul decaying daily.
2 Da: ibidi egefelali gafeyale gala da Hibalone moilai bai bagade amo ganodini lalelelegei. Magobo mano da A: manone (ea: me da Yeseliele uda amo ea dio amo Ahinoua: me).
And sons were born to David in Hebron: and his firstborn was Amnon of Achinoam the Jezrahelitess:
3 Amo baligia da Gilia: be (ea: me da Gamele uda, Na: iba: le ea didalo, ea dio amo A: biga: ile). Amo baligia da A: basalome (ea: me da Gisie hina bagade Da: lama: i ea idiwi, amo Ma: iaga).
And his second Cheleab of Abigail the wife of Nabal of Carmel: and the third Absalom the son of Maacha the daughter of Tholmai king of Gessur:
4 Amo baligia da Adounaidia (ea: me da Ha: gide). Amo baligia da Siefada: ia (ea: me da Abaida: le).
And the fourth Adonias, the son of Haggith: and the fifth Saphathia the son of Abital:
5 Ufidafa da Idilia: me (ea: me da Egela). Amo dunu mano huluane da Hibalone moilai bai bagadegamusu lalelelegei galu.
And the sixth Jethraam of Egla the wife of David: these were born to David in Hebron.
6 Da: ibidima fuligala: su dunu amola Solo ea sosogo fi fuligala: su dunu ele gegenanu. A: bena da Solo ea sosogo fi fuligala: su fi amo ganodini gasawane heda: lebe ba: i.
Now while there was war between the house of Saul and the house of David, Abner the son of Ner ruled the house of Saul.
7 Eso afaega, Esiabousiede (Solo egefe) e da A: bena da Solo ea gidisedagi uda Lisiba (A: ia ea mano) amola gilisili golaiba: le, diwaneya udidi.
And Saul had a concubine named Respha, the daughter of Aia. And Isboseth said to Abner:
8 Amoga, A:bena da ougi bagade ba: i. E amane sia: i, “Di da dawa: loba na da Soloma baligi fa: ma: bela: ? Di da dawa: loba na da Yuda dunu ilia hawa: hamobe hamosala: ? Na da muni amogainini dia ada Solo amola yolalali amola ea sama huluane, ili fawane fuligala: su. Amola Da: ibidi da dili mae hasalima: ne, na da hamosu. Be wali di da ogogole na da udama doaga: i sia: sa.
Why didst thou go in to my father’s concubine? And he was exceedingly angry for the words of Isboseth, and said: Am I a dog’s head against Juda this day, who have shewn mercy to the house of Saul thy father, and to his brethren and friends, and have not delivered thee into the hands of David, and hast thou sought this day against me to charge me with a matter concerning a woman?
So do God to Abner, and more also, unless as the Lord hath sworn to David, so I do to him,
10 Hina Gode da Da: ibidima, E da Isala: ili hina bagade hou Solo amola egaga fi amoga fadegale, Da: ibidi da Isala: ili amola Yuda soge huluanedafa ouligima: ne hina bagade hamomu ilegei. Wali, na da amo hou dafawanedafa ba: ma: ne hame hamosea, Gode da na fane legemu da defea.”
That the kingdom be translated from the house of Saul, and the throne of David be set up over Israel, and over Juda from Dan to Bersabee.
11 Esiabousiede da A: benaba: le bagadewane beda: i. E da bu adole imunu hamedei ba: i.
And he could not answer him a word, because he feared him.
12 Amogalu, Da: ibidi da Hibalone moilai bai bagadega esalu. A: bena da ema adola ahoasu dunu ema amane sia: na masa: ne asunasi, “Nowa da ninia soge ouligima: bela: ? Nama gousa: su hamoma. Amasea, Isala: ili dunu huluane di fuligala: ma: ne, na da di fidimu.”
Abner therefore sent messengers to David for himself, saying: Whose is the land? and that they should say: Make a league with me, and my hand shall be with thee: and I will bring all Israel to thee.
13 Da: ibidi da bu adole i, “Defea! Dia liligi afae fawane hamosea, na da ani gousa: su hamomu. Di da na ba: la masea, Solo idiwi Maiga: le, amo nama oule misa.”
And he said: Very well: I will make a league with thee: but one thing I require of thee, saying: Thou shalt not see my face before thou bring Michol the daughter of Saul: and so thou shalt come, and see me.
14 Amola Da: ibidi da sia: adola ahoasu dunu Esiabousiede ema amane sia: ma: ne sia: si, “Na uda Maiga: le nama bu ima. Na da Filisidini dunu 100 ilia ewa gadofo amo uda lama: ne dabe i galu.”
And David sent messengers to Isboseth the son of Saul, saying: Restore my wife Michol, whom I espoused to me for a hundred foreskins of the Philistines.
15 Amaiba: le, Esiabousiede da Maiga: le amo ea egoa Ba: ladiele (La: ise egefe) amo ea lai amo sugui.
And Isboseth sent, and took her from her husband Phaltiel, the son of Lais.
16 Ba: ladiele da diginiwane Maiga: lema fa: no bobogele, Bahiulimi moilaiga doaga: i. Amalalu, A:bena da ema amane sia: i, “Di diasua buhagima!” Amanobamone, e da buhagi.
And her husband followed her, weeping as far as Bahurim: and Abner said to him: Go and return. And he returned.
17 A: bena da Isala: ili ouligisu dunu ilima asili, amane sia: i, “Dilia da eso bagohame amoga Da: ibidi dilia hina bagade hamoma: ne hananusu.
Abner also spoke to the ancients of Israel, saying: Both yesterday and the day before you sought for David that he might reign over you.
18 Wali, amo hamoma! Hina Gode Ea sia: i bu dawa: ma! E amane sia: i, `Na da na hawa: hamosu dunu Da: ibidi amo ea loboga, Na fi Isala: ili dunu amo Filisidini dunu amola ilia ha lai dunu huluane ili mae hasalima: ne gaga: mu.’”
Now then do it: because the Lord hath spoken to David, saying: By the hand of my servant David I will save my people Israel from the hands of the Philistines, and of all their enemies.
19 Amola A: bena da amanewane Bediamini fi dunuma sia: i. Amalalu, e da Hibalone amoga asili, e da Bediamini amola Isala: ili dunu ilia hamomu sia: i, amo Da: ibidima olelei.
And Abner spoke also to Benjamin. And he went to speak to David in Hebron all that seemed good to Israel, and to all Benjamin.
20 A: bena amola ea dunu 20 agoane da Hibalone moilai bai bagadega Da: ibidima misi. Da: ibidi ili aowama: ne lolo nasu hamoi.
And he came to David in Hebron with twenty men: and David made a feast for Abner, and his men that came with him.
21 A: bena da Da: ibidima amane adole i, “Hina noga: idafa! Na da wali asili, Isala: ili dunu huluane di fuligala: ma: ne hamomu. Amasea, ilia huluane da di hina bagade hamoma: ne sia: mu. Amola dia hanai defele, di da Isala: ili soge huluanedafa ouligima: mu.” Da: ibidi da A: bena da se hamedafa nabima: ne, gaga: su sia: ilegei.
And Abner said to David: I will rise, that I may gather all Israel unto thee my lord the king, and may enter into a league with thee, and that thou mayst reign over all as thy soul desireth. Now when David bad brought Abner on his way, and he was gone in peace,
22 Amalu fa: no, Youa: be amola Da: ibidi ea ouligisu dunu eno da ha wa: i asili, liligi lai bagadedafa gagaguli buhagi. Be ilia da A: bena Hibalone amoga esalebe hame ba: i. Bai Da: ibidi da A: benama e da se hamedafa nabima: ne, gaga: su sia: ilegele, hi diasua masa: ne asunasi.
Immediately David’s servants and Joab came, after having slain the robbers, with an exceeding great booty: and Abner, was not with David in Hebron, for he had now sent him away, and he was gone in peace.
23 Youa: be amola ea dunu da doaga: le nabagaloba, A:bena da Da: ibidima misini amola Da: ibidi da e se mae nabima: ne ilegelalu hi diasua masa: ne asunasi, amo ilia nabi.
And Joab and all the army that was with him, came afterwards: and it was told Joab, that Abner the son of Ner came to the king, and he hath sent him away, and he is gone in peace.
24 Amaiba: le, Youa: be da hina bagade ema asili amane sia: i, “Di da adi hamobela: ? A: bena da dima misi. Dia abuliba: le e udigili masa: ne logo doasibala: ?
And Joab went in to the king, and said: What hast thou done? Behold Abner came to thee: Why didst thou send him away, and he is gone and departed?
25 E da dima ogogomusa: misi. Amola dia hamobe amola ahoabe huluane abedemusa: misi. Di da ea hou dawa: !”
Knowest thou not Abner the son of Ner, that to this end he came to thee, that he might deceive thee, and to know thy going out, and thy coming in, and to know all thou dost?
26 Youa: be da Da: ibidi yolesilalu, sia: adola ahoasu dunu, amo A: bena bu misa: ne sia: ma: ne asunasi. Ilia da A: bena amo Sila si hano esalebe ba: loba, e bu oule misi. Be Da: ibidi da amo hou hame dawa: i galu.
Then Joab going out from David, sent messengers after Abner, and brought him back from the cistern of Sira, David knowing nothing of it.
27 A: bena da Hibalone logo holeiga doaga: loba, Youa: be da logo bega: ema ogogole wamo sia: sia: musia: ne oule aliagale, e gobiheiga hagomo sone legei. Amola A: bena da medole legei dagoi ba: i. Bai e da Youa: be eya A: sahele fane legei.
And when Abner was returned to Hebron, Joab took him aside to the middle of the gate, to speak to him treacherously: and he stabbed him there in the groin, and he died, in revenge of the blood of Asael his brother.
28 Da: ibidi da amane hamoi sia: nababeba: le, e da amane sia: i, “Hina Gode da dawa: ! Na amola na baligia aligi dunu huluane, ninia da A: bena e hamedafa fane legei.
And when David heard of it, after the thing was now done, he said: I, and my kingdom are innocent before the Lord for ever of the blood of Abner the son of Ner:
29 Gode da Youa: be amola ea sosogo fi huluane ilima amo hou ea dabe se iasu ilima imunu da defea. Egaga fifi misunu amo ganodini, dunu afae da gadofo olo bagade o wadela: i uda lasu olo bagade o dunu da gasa hameba: le uda ea hawa: fawane hamomu dawa: o dunu da gegesu ganodini fane legei o dunu da ha: i bagade, agoaiwane dunu ba: mu da defea. Gode da Youa: be fi ilima amane se dabe imunu da defea.”
And may it come upon the head of Joab, and upon all his father’s house: and let there not fail from the house of Joab one that hath an issue of seed, or that is a leper, or that holdeth the distaff, or that falleth by the sword, or that wanteth bread.
30 Youa: be amola eaeya Abisia: i da amanewane A: bena dabe i. Bai e da ela eya A: sahele amo Gibione gegesu ganodini fane legei.
So Joab and Abisai his brother slew Abner, because he had killed their brother Asael at Gabaon in the battle.
31 Amalalu, Da: ibidi da Youa: be amola ea dunu ilia da abula gagadelale, amola abula wadela: i ebobolesi sasalili, A:benaha fofagini didigia: ma: ne sia: i. Bogoi uli dogomusa: gilisisu amoga, hina bagade Da: ibidi da bogoi doufa da: iya gisa ahoabe amoga fa: no bobogei.
And David said to Joab, and to all the people that were with him: Rend your garments, and gird yourselves with sackcloths, and mourn before the funeral of Abner. And king David himself followed the bier.
32 Ilia da A: bena amo Hibalone moilai bai bagadega uli dogoi. Da: ibidi amola dunu huluane da uli dogoi bega: didigia: sa esafulu.
And when they had buried Abner in Hebron, king David lifted up his voice, and wept at the grave of Abner: and all the people also wept.
33 Da: ibidi da A: benaha asigili fofagi gesami amane hea: i, “A: bena da abuliba: le gagaoui dunuga bogosu defele bagobela: ?
And the king mourning and lamenting over Abner, said: Not as cowards are wont to die, hath Abner died.
34 Ea lobo da hame la: gi ba: i. Ea emo da hame la: gi ba: i. E da dunu amo wadela: i hamosu dunuga medole legei, amo defele bogoi.” Amalalu, dunu huluane eha da bu didiga: i.
Thy hands were not bound, nor thy feet laden with fetters: but as men fall before the children of iniquity, so didst thou fall. And all the people repeating it wept over him.
35 Amo esoha, dunu da gebewane Da: ibidi e ha: i moma: ne sia: i. Be e da dafawane amane ilegele sia: i, “Na da wali eso amoga ha: i nasea, Gode da na fane legemu da defea.”
And when all the people came to take meat with David, while it was yet broad day, David swore, saying: So do God to me, and more also, if I taste bread or any thing else before sunset.
36 Ilia da amo hou ba: lalu, hahawane ba: i. Dafawane! Ilia da hina bagade Da: ibidi ea hamobe huluane hahawane ba: i.
And all the people heard, and they were pleased, and all that the king did seemed good in the sight of all the people.
37 Da: ibidi ea fi dunu huluane, amola Isala: ili fi dunu huluane da hina bagade da A: bena fane legei amo hamedafa fidi, amo noga: le dawa: i galu.
And all the people, and all Israel understood that day that it was not the king’s doing, that Abner the son of Ner was slain.
38 Hina bagade da ea eagene ouligisu dunuma amane sia: i, “Dilia! Noga: le dawa: ma! Wali eso, Isala: ili soge ouligisu dunu bagade da bogoi dagoi.
The king also said to his servants: Do you not know that a prince and great man is slain this day in Israel?
39 Gode da na hina bagade hamoma: ne ilegei dagoi. Be wali eso na da gasa hamedene gogaya: i ba: sa. Selouaia egefelali da baligili bidi hamobeba: le, na higasa. Hina Gode da ilia wadela: i hamoi defele, se dabe ilima imunu da defea.”
But I as yet am tender, though anointed king. And these men the sons of Sarvia are too hard for me: the Lord reward him that doth evil according to his wickedness.
