2 Samuel 13

1 Nahitabo kini human nga si Amnon nga anak ni David, naibog pag-ayo sa maanyag nga babaye nga iyang igsoon sa amahan nga si Tamar, nga igsoon ni Absalom, usa sa mga anak nga lalaki ni David.

David’s son Absalom had a beautiful sister named Tamar. Another of David’s sons, Amnon, was attracted to Tamar.

2 Wala na mahimutang si Amnon ug nasakit siya tungod sa iyang igsoon sa amahan nga si Tamar. Ulay siya, ug daw sa dili mamahimo alang kang Amnon ang pagbuhat sa bisan unsa ngadto kaniya.

He wanted [to have sex with] [EUP] his half-sister very much, with the result that he made himself sick [thinking about her all the time]. But it was not possible for Amnon to get her, because she was a virgin, [so they kept men away from her].

3 Apan adunay higala si Amnon nga ginganlag Jehonadab ang anak nga lalaki ni Shama, nga igsoon ni David. Si Jehonadab limbongan kaayo nga tawo.

But Amnon had a friend named Jonadab, who was the son of David’s brother Shimeah. Jonadab was a very crafty/shrewd man.

4 Miingon si Jehonadab kang Amnon, “Ngano man, nga ang anak sa hari, magul-anon sa matag buntag? Dili ka ba mosulti kanako?” Busa mitubag si Amnon kaniya, “Nahigugma ako kang Tamar, ang igsoon ni Absalom nga akong igsoon sa amahan.”

[One day] Jonadab said to Amnon, “You are the king’s son, but every day I see that [RHQ] you seem very depressed/sad. What is your problem?” Amnon replied, “I (am in love/want to sleep) [EUP] with Tamar, my half-brother Absalom’s sister.”

5 Ug miingon si Jehonadab ngadto kaniya, “Paghigda sa imong higdaanan ug pagpakaaron-ingnon nga nasakit. Sa dihang moadto ang imong amahan sa pagtan-aw kanimo, hangyoa siya, 'Mamahimo mo ba nga ipadala ang akong igsoon nga babaye nga si Tamar aron maghatag ug pagkaon ug magluto niini sa akong atubangan, aron nga makita ko kini ug makakaon gikan sa iyang kamot?””

Jonadab said to him, “Lie down on your bed, and pretend that you are sick. When your father comes to see you, say to him, ‘Allow my half-sister Tamar to come and give me some food to eat. She can prepare the food while I am watching her. Then she can serve it to me herself.’”

6 Busa mihigda si Amnon ug nagpakaaron-ingnon nga nasakit. Sa dihang miadto ang hari sa pagtan-aw kaniya, miingon si Amnon sa hari, “Palihog ipadala ang akong igsoon nga si Tamar sa paghimo ug pipila ka pagkaon alang sa akong sakit sa akong atubangan aron makakaon ako gikan sa iyang kamot.”

So Amnon lay down, and pretended that he was sick. When the king came to see him, Amnon said to him, “[I am sick; ] please allow my half-sister Tamar to come and make a couple scones/dumplings for me while I am watching, and then she can serve them to me.”

7 Sa iyang palasyo nagpadala ug pulong si David ngadto kang Tamar, nga nag-ingon, “Pag-adto karon sa balay sa imong igsoon nga lalaki nga si Amnon ug pag-andam ug pagkaon alang kaniya.”

So David sent a message to Tamar in the palace, saying “Amnon [is sick and he wants you to] go to his house and prepare some food for him.”

8 Busa miadto si Tamar sa balay sa iyang igsoon nga lalaki nga si Amnon kung asa siya naghigda. Nagkuha siya ug harina ug iya kining gimasa ug gihulma nga tinapay sa iyang panan-aw, ug unya giluto niya kini.

So Tamar went to Amnon’s house, where he was lying in bed. She took some dough and kneaded it, and formed it into some scones/dumplings while he was watching her. Then she baked them.

9 Gikuha niya ang karahay ug gihatag ang tinapay ngadto kaniya, apan nagdumili siya sa pagkaon. Unya miingon si Amnon sa uban nga anaa, “Pagawsa ang matag-usa, palayo kanako.” Busa ang matag-usa mipahawa sa iyang atubangan.

She took them out of the pan and put them [on a plate] in front of him, but he refused to eat them. Then he said to everyone else in the room, “All the rest of you, leave me now!” So all the others left his [room].

10 Busa miingon si Amnon kang Tamar, “Dad-a ang pagkaon sa akong lawak aron makakaon ako gikan sa imong kamot.” Busa gidala ni Tamar ang tinapay nga iyang gihimo, ug gidala kini sa lawak sa iyang igsoon nga si Amnon.

Then Amnon said to Tamar, “Bring the food into my room and serve it to me.” So Tamar took into his room the scones/dumplings that she had made.

11 Sa dihang nadala na niya ang pagkaon ngadto kaniya, gikuptan niya ang iyang kamot ug giingnan siya, “Dali, dulog uban kanako, akong igsoon.”

But when she brought them close for him to eat them, he grabbed her and said to her, “Come to bed with me!”

12 Mitubag siya kaniya, “Dili, akong igsoon, ayaw ako pugsa, kay walay sama niini nga angay himoon sa Israel. Ayaw himoa kining makauulaw nga butang!

She replied, “No, do not force me to do such a disgraceful thing! We never do things like that in Israel! That would be awful/terrible!

13 Unsaon ko man pagwagtang sa akong kaulaw? Unya unsaon naman lang ka? Mahimo kang sama sa usa ka buangbuang sa tibuok Israel! Karon palihog, pakigsulti sa hari, tungod kay dili niya ako ihikaw kanimo.”

As for me, if I did that, I would not be able to [RHQ] endure being disgraced by having done that. And as for you, everyone in Israel would condemn you for having done such a disgraceful deed. So I plead with you, talk to the king. I am sure that he will allow me to marry you.”

14 Bisan pa niana wala maminaw si Amnon kaniya. Tungod kay mas kusgan man siya kay kang Tamar, gidakop niya siya ug nakigdulog siya kaniya.

But he would not listen to her. He was stronger than she was, so he forced her to have sex with him.

15 Unya gikasilagan ni Amnon si Tamar sa hilabihan nga kasilag. Gikasilagan niya siya mas labaw pa sa iyang paghandom kaniya. Miingon si Amnon kaniya, “Barog ug lakaw.”

Then Amnon hated her very much. He hated her much more than he had desired her. He said to her, “Get up and get out of here!”

16 Apan mitubag siya kaniya, “Dili! Tungod kay kining dakong kadaotan nga pagpalakaw nimo kanako mas labi pang daotan sa imong gibuhat kanako!” Apan wala maminaw si Amnon kaniya.

But she said to him, “No! It would be very wrong for you to send me away. It would be worse than what you just did to me!” But he would not listen to her.

17 Hinuon, gitawag niya ang iyang kaugalingong sulugoon ug giingnan, “Dad-a kining bayhana palayo kanako, ug trangkahi ang pultahan pagkahuman.”

He summoned his personal servant and said to him, “Take this woman outside, away from me, and lock the door [so that she cannot come in again]!”

18 Unya gidala siya sa iyang sulugoon ug gitrangkahan ang pultahan pagkahuman. Nagsul-ob si Tamar ug bisti nga adunay mga dayandayan tungod kay ang mga anak sa hari nga ulay magbisti man niana nga pamaagi.

So the servant put her outside and locked the door. Tamar was wearing a long robe with long sleeves, which was the clothing that was usually worn by the unmarried daughters of the king at that time.

19 Nagbutang ug abo si Tamar sa iyang ulo ug gigisi niya ang iyang bisti. Gibutang niya ang iyang kamot sa iyang ulo ug milakaw palayo, mihilak ug kusog samtang nagpalayo siya.

But Tamar tore the long robe that she was wearing, and put ashes on her head [to show that she was very sad]. Then she put her hands on her head [to show that she was grieving], and she went away, crying.

20 Si Absalom nga iyang igsoon miingon kaniya, “Didto ka ba uban ni Amnon nga imong igsoon? Apan karon paghilom lang, akong igsoon. Imo siyang igsoon. Ayaw pagbaton niining butanga sa imong kasingkasing.” Busa nagpabilin si Tamar nga nag-inusara sa balay ni Absalom nga iyang igsoon.

Her brother Absalom [saw her and] said to her, “Has your half-brother Amnon [DOU] forced you to have sex with him [EUP]? Please, my sister, do not tell anyone, and do not become depressed/sad.” So Tamar went to live in Absalom’s house, and she was very sad and lonely.

21 Apan sa dihang nadunggan ni Haring David kining tanang mga butang, nasuko siya pag-ayo.

When King David heard about all that, he became very angry.

22 Walay gisulti si Absalom ngadto kang Amnon, kay nasilag si Absalom kaniya tungod sa iyang gibuhat ug pagpakaulaw sa iyang igsoon nga si Tamar.

And Absalom hated Amnon, because he had raped his sister, so he would not speak to Amnon about anything.

23 Nahitabo kini human sa duha ka tuig nga si Absalom nagkuha ug tigpanupi sa mga karnero sa Baal Hasor, nga duol sa Efraim, ug gidapit ni Absalom ang tanang mga anak sa hari sa pagbisita didto.

Two years later, Absalom’s servants were shearing sheep at Baal-Hazor, which is near [a town named] Ephraim. [When they finished shearing the sheep, they celebrated], and Absalom invited all the king’s sons [to come and celebrate].

24 Miadto si Absalom sa hari ug miingon, “Tan-awa karon, ang imong sulugoon magpatupi sa iyang mga karnero. Palihog, hinaot nga ang hari ug ang iyang mga sulugoon mouban kanako, nga imong sulugoon.”

Absalom went to the king and said to him, “Sir, my servants have been shearing my sheep. Please come with your officials [to celebrate] with us!”

25 Ang hari mitubag kang Absalom, “Dili, akong anak, ang tanan kanamo dili kinahanglan nga moadto kay makapabug-at lamang kami kanimo.” Gidasig ni Absalom ang hari, apan dili siya moadto, hinuon gipanalanginan niya si Absalom.

But the king replied, “No, my son, it would not be good for all of us to go, because it would cause you to do a lot of work and spend a lot of money for food.” Absalom continued urging him, but the king would not go. Instead, he said that he hoped/desired that God would bless them [while they celebrated].

26 Unya miingon si Absalom, “Kung dili, palihog itugot ang akong igsoon nga si Amnon mouban kanamo.” Busa ang hari miingon kaniya, “Nganong kinahanglan man nga mouban si Amnon kanimo?”

Then Absalom said, “If you will not go, please allow my half-brother Amnon to go with us.” But the king replied, “Why [do you want] him to go with you?”

27 Namugos si Absalom kang David, busa gitugotan niya si Amnon ug ang tanang mga anak sa hari sa pag-uban kaniya.

But Absalom continued to insist, so finally the king permitted Amnon and all David’s other sons to go with Absalom.

28 Gisugo ni Absalom ang iyang mga sulugoon sa pag-ingon, “Paminaw pag-ayo. Sa dihang magsugod si Amnon ug kahubog sa bino, ug kung moingon ako kaninyo, 'Atakiha si Amnon,' patya dayon siya. Ayaw kahadlok. Dili ba ako man ang nagsugo kaninyo? Pagmalig-on ug pagmaisog.”

[So they all went. And at the celebration], Absalom commanded his servants, “Notice when Amnon has become a bit drunk from the wine. Then when I signal to you, kill him. Do not be afraid; you will be doing this [only] because I told you [RHQ] to do it. So be courageous and do it!”

29 Busa gibuhat sa mga sulugoon ni Absalom ngadto kang Amnon sumala sa iyang gisugo kanila. Unya nanindog ang tanang mga anak sa hari, ug ang matag usa ka lalaki misakay sa ilang mula ug mikagiw.

So Absalom’s servants did what Absalom told them to do. [They killed Amnon]. All the rest of David’s sons [saw what happened and] fled, riding on their mules.

30 Busa nahitabo kini, samtang anaa pa sila sa dalan, ang balita miabot kang David nga nag-ingon, “Gipamatay ni Absalom ang tanang mga anak sa hari, ug walay usa kanila nga nahibilin.”

While they were on their way home, someone [went quickly and] reported to David, “Absalom has killed all of your other sons; none of them is still alive!”

31 Mibarog ang hari ug gigisi niya ang iyang bisti, ug miyaka diha sa salog; nagbarog ang tanan niyang sulugoon uban sa paggisi sa ilang mga bisti.

The king stood up, tore his clothes [because he was extremely sad], and then he threw himself down on the ground. All the servants who were there also tore their clothes.

32 Si Jehonadab nga anak nga lalaki ni Shama, nga igsoon ni David, mitubag ug miingon, “Hinaot nga dili motuo ang akong agalon nga ilang gipamatay ang tanang batan-ong lalaki nga mao ang mga anak sa hari, kay si Amnon lamang ang namatay. Giplano na kining daan ni Absalom sukad pa sa adlaw nga gipanamastamasan ni Amnon ang iyang igsoon nga si Tamar.

But Jonadab, the son of David’s brother Shimeah, said, “Your Majesty, [I am sure that] they have not killed all your sons. [I am sure that] only Amnon is dead, because Absalom has determined to do this ever since the day that Amnon raped [EUP] his half-sister Tamar.

33 Busa hinaot nga dili magbaton niining balita sa iyang kasingkasing ang akong agalon nga hari, sa pagtuo nga ang tanang mga anak sa hari gipamatay, kay si Amnon lamang ang gipatay.”

So, your majesty, do not believe the report that all your sons are dead. [I am sure that] only Amnon is dead.”

34 Mikagiw si Absalom. Ang sulugoon nga nagpabiling nagbantay miyahat sa iyang mata ug nakita niya ang daghang mga tawo nga nagpadulong sa dalan nga anaa sa kabungtorang dapit sa kasadpan.

In the meantime, Absalom ran away. Just then, the soldier/sentry [who was standing on the city wall] saw a large crowd of people coming down the hill along the road from Horonaim. [He ran and told the king what he had seen].

35 Unya miingon si Jehonadab ngadto sa hari, “Tan-awa, nagpadulong ang mga anak sa hari. Sama kini sa giingon sa imong sulugoon.”

Jonadab said to the king, “Aha! What I told you is true. Your other sons [are alive and] have come!”

36 Busa sa pagkahuman gayod niya ug sulti, miabot ang mga anak sa hari ug gipatugbaw ang ilang mga tingog ug nanghilak. Mapait usab nga mihilak ang hari ug ang iyang mga sulugoon.

And as soon as he said that, David’s sons came in. They all started crying, and David and all his officials also cried very much.

37 Apan si Absalom mikagiw ug miadto kang Talmai nga anak ni Ammihud, nga hari sa Gesur. Nagbangotan si David sa matag adlaw alang sa iyang anak.

But Absalom had fled. He went to stay with the king of [the] Geshur [region], who was Talmai the son of Ammihud. Absalom stayed there for three years. David mourned for his son Amnon for a long time,

38 Busa mikagiw si Absalom ug miadto sa Gesur, diin nagpuyo siya sa tulo ka tuig.

39 Ang hunahuna ni Haring David naghandom nga moadto aron makita si Absalom, kay nahupay na man siya mahitungod kang Amnon ug sa iyang kamatayon.

but after that, he desired very much to see Absalom, because he was no longer grieving about Amnon being dead.
