< 2 Samuel 23 >

1 Magi e weche Daudi mogik: Weche mag Daudi wuod Jesse, weche ngʼat motingʼ malo gi Ngʼat Mamalo Mogik, ngʼat mowir gi Nyasach Jakobo, jawer wende mag Israel.

Now, these, are the last words of David, —The oracle of David, son of Jesse, Yea the oracle of The man raised up on high, The Anointed of the God of Jacob, the Delight of the Songs of Israel:

2 Roho mar Jehova Nyasaye nowuoyo kotiyo koda, wechene ne ni e dhoga.

The Spirit of Yahweh, spake in me, —And, his word, was on my tongue;

3 Nyasach Israel nowuoyo; Lwanda mar Israel nowachona ni: Ka ngʼato otelo ni ji e yo makare, kendo ka olocho koluoro Nyasaye,

Said the God of Israel, Unto me, spake the Rock of Israel: —One Ruling over Men, A Righteous One, ruling in the reverence of God,

4 to ochalo gi ler mar okinyi ka chiengʼ wuok, okinyi maonge boche polo, machalo gi ler polo bangʼ chue koth mamiyo lum loth.

Is even as the light of the morning when ariseth the sun, —A morning, without clouds, [As] from brightness, [and] from rain, the fresh shoots out of the earth.

5 Donge oda nikare e nyim Nyasaye? Donge Osesingore koda gi singruok mochwere, mochan kendo morit chuth? Donge obiro kelo olemb warruokna kendo miya gik ma chunya dwaro duto?

When, not so, was my house with GOD, Then, a covenant age-abiding, he appointed me, Ordered in all things and guarded, Now that it is all my salvation and all my desire, Will he not make it shoot forth?

6 To joma richo ibiro wit tenge ka kuthe ma ok nyal chok gi lwedo.

But, as for the abandoned, like thorns to be tossed away are they all, —For, not with the hand, can they be taken;

7 Ngʼama choko kuthe konyore gi gima olos gi nyinyo kata gi ragwar, kendo wangʼogi kama ochokgie.

But, the man that would touch them, Must fence himself with iron, and the shaft of a spear, —Then, with fire, shall they be, consumed, on the spot!

8 Magi e nyinge thuondi mag Daudi: Josheb-Bashebeth ja-Takemon, ne thuon kuom thuondi adek; nokawo tongʼe monegogo ji mia aboro e lweny dichiel.

These, are the names of the mighty men, who belonged to David, —The president a Tachmonite head of the charioteers, the same, was Adino the Eznite, for eight hundred, slain at one time.

9 Ngʼat maluwe ne en Eliazar wuod Dodai ma ja-Ahohi. Kaka achiel kuom thuondi adek, ne en gi Daudi kane gijaro jo-Filistia mano chokore Pas Damim ne lweny. Eka jolwenj Israel noringo,

And, after him, Eleazar son of Dodo, son of Ahohi, —in the hero-class of mighty men, with David, when they reproached the Philistines, they were gathered together there to battle, but the men of Israel had gone up;

10 to en nochungʼ kar tiende mi nonego jo-Filistia nyaka bade nojony ma lwete omoko e ligangla. Jehova Nyasaye nokelo loch maduongʼ chiengʼno, jolweny noduogo ir Eliazar to mana ni yako gige joma otho.

he, however, arose and smote among the Philistines until his hand was weary, and his hand clave unto his sword, so Yahweh wrought a great victory on that day, —the people, coming back after him, only to strip the slain.

11 Maluwe ne en Shama wuod Agee ma ja-Harar. Kane jo-Filistia ochokore kama ne nitie puoth ngʼor, jo-Israel noringogi.

And, after him, Shammah son of Agee, the Hararite, —and, when the Philistines were gathered together into a troop, there being at hand an allotment of field-land full of lentils, but, the people, having fled from the face of the Philistines,

12 To Shama nochungʼ kar tiende e dier puodhono. Norite monego jo-Filistia, kendo Jehova Nyasaye nokelo loch maduongʼ.

then took he his stand in the midst of the allotment, and defended it, and smote the Philistines, —and Yahweh wrought a great victory.

13 E kinde mag keyo, adek kuom thuondi piero adek madongo nobiro ir Daudi e rogo man Adulam, ka jolweny mag jo-Filistia to nojot e Holo mar Refaim.

And three of the thirty chiefs descended, and came in, towards harvest, unto David, unto the cave of Adullam, —although, a troop of Philistines, were encamped in the vale of Rephaim;

14 E kindeno Daudi nopondo e rogo kendo jo-Filistia to nochokore Bethlehem.

and, David, then was in a stronghold, —and, a garrison of Philistines, was then in Bethlehem.

15 Daudi riyo noloyo mowacho niya, “Yaye mad ne ngʼato kelnae pi soko man but ranga Bethlehem mondo amodhi!”

And David longed, and said, —Who will give me to drink water out of the well of Bethlehem, that is within the gate?

16 Eka thuondi adekgo nomwomo kama jolwenj jo-Filistia nochanore mi gitwomo pi e soko mane nitie but ranga Bethlehem kendo giterone Daudi. To notamore modho pigno, to kar modhe to noologo piny e nyim Jehova Nyasaye.

And the three mighty men brake through the camp of Philistines, and drew water out of the well of Bethlehem, that was within the gate, and bare it, and brought it in unto David, —yet would he not drink, but poured it out unto Yahweh,

17 Nowacho niya, “Yaye Jehova Nyasaye, ok datim ma ngangʼ! Donge ma en remb joma nodhi ka ok odewo ngimagi?” Kendo Daudi ne ok omodho pigno. Mago e gik mane thuondi adekgo otimo.

and said—Be it far from me, O Yahweh, that I should do this! is it not the blood of the men who went with their lives [in their hands]? So he would not drink it. These things, did the three mighty men.

18 Abishai owadgi Joab wuod Zeruya ne en thuon moloyo thuondi adekgo. Nokawo tongʼe monego ji mia adek, kendo nomiyo obedo gi huma mana kaka thuondi adek ka.

And. Abishai brother of Joab son of Zeruiah, he, was chief of three, in that he brandished his spear against three hundred whom he slew; and, he, had a name among three.

19 Donge noyudo pak mathoth moloyo thuondi adekgo? Nobedo jatendgi kata obedo nine ok en achiel kuomgi.

Was he not most honourable, of the three, and so became their captain? Nevertheless, unto the three, he attained not.

20 Benaya wuod Jehoyada ne jalweny mathuon moa Kabzel, notimo timbe madongo. Nonego ji ariyo mag Moab mane ger ka sibuor. Chiengʼ moro nodonjo e bur ka piny otimo pe mi onego sibuor.

Benaiah also, son of Jehoiadah, son of an active man, hero of many a deed, a man of Kabzeel, he, smote the two sons of Ariel of Moab, he, also went down and smote a lion in the midst of a pit, on a day of snow;

21 Bende en ema nonego ja-Misri marabet. Kata nobedo ni ja-Misrino ne nigi tongʼ e lwete, Benaya nodhi kedo kode kotingʼo arungu. Noyudho tongʼ e lwet ja-Misrino monege gi tonge owuon.

he, also smote an Egyptian, who was of valiant bearing, and, in the hand of the Egyptian, was a spear, but he went down unto him with a staff, —and wrested the spear out of the hand of the Egyptian, and slew him with his own spear.

22 Mago e timbe mag thuon mane Benaya wuod Jehoyada otimo, en bende ne en rahuma ka thuondi adek ka.

These things, did Benaiah son of Jehoiada, and, he, had a name among three mighty men.

23 Nomiye luor maduongʼ moloyo thuondi piero adekgo, to kata kamano ne ok en achiel kuom thuondi adekgo madongo. Daudi nokete jatend jolweny mane rite.

He was the most honourable, of thirty, although, unto the three, he attained no, —so David added him to his council.

24 Ji duto mane ni e kwan mar jolweny mathuondi piero adek ne gin: Asahel owadgi Joab, Elhanan wuod Dodo ma ja-Bethlehem,

Asahel, brother of Joab, was among the thirty, —Elhanan, son of Dodo, of Bethlehem;

25 Shama ja-Harod, gi Elika ja-Harod.

Shammah, the Harodite; Elika, the Harodite;

26 Helez ja-Palti, gi Ira wuod Ikesh ma ja-Tekoa,

Helez, the Paltite, Ira, son of Ikkesh, the Tekoite;

27 Abiezer ma ja-Anathoth, Sibekai ma ja-Hushath,

Abiezer, the Anathothite, Mebunnai, the Hushathite;

28 Zalmon ma ja-Ahohi, Maharai ma ja-Netofath,

Zalmon, the Ahohite, Maharai, the Netophathite;

29 Heled wuod Baana ma ja-Netofath, Ithai wuod Ribai mawuok Gibea e piny Benjamin,
