2 Samuel 20
1 And there happened to be there a base fellow whose name was Sheba, the son of Bichri, a Benjamite. And he blew the trumpet, and said, We have no portion in David, neither have we inheritance in the son of Jesse. Every man to his tents, O Israel.
Aa teo t’indaty nte-Beliale, i Sebà ty añara’e, ana’ i Bikrý nte-Ieminý, ie nampipopo tsifan’ añondry nitsey ty hoe: Tsy aman’ anjara amy Davide tika, vaho tsy aman-dova amy ana’ Iesey. Vonjeo ty kiboho’o ry Israeleo.
2 So all the men of Israel went up from following David, and followed Sheba the son of Bichri, but the men of Judah clung to their king, from the Jordan even to Jerusalem.
Aa le nisitak’ amy Davide o ana’ Israele iabio vaho nañorike i Sebà, ana’ i Bikrý; fe nipitek’ amy mpanjaka’ey t’Iehoda boak’ am’ Iordaney pake Ierosalaime.
3 And David came to his house at Jerusalem. And the king took the ten women his concubines, whom he had left to keep the house, and put them in ward, and provided them with sustenance, but did not go in to them. So they were shut up to the day of their death, living in widowhood.
Ie nitotsak’ añ’ anjomba’e Ierosalaime ao t’i Davide le rinambe’ i mpanjakay i rakemba folo nisakeza’e rey, i nenga’e ao hañambeñe i anjombay rey naho nagorogoda’e an-traño nigaritañe naho nifahana’e, f’ie tsy nimoak’ am’ iereo ka. Le songa nigabeñe ao ampara’ te nivetrake, ie niveloñe ho vantotse avao.
4 Then the king said to Amasa, Call the men of Judah together to me within three days, and be thou here present.
Hoe i mpanjakay amy Amasà: Koiho o lahilahy nte-Iehodao hifanontoñe atoy añate’ ty telo andro, le miatrefa ka.
5 So Amasa went to call the men of Judah together, but he delayed longer than the set time which he had appointed him.
Aa le nimb’eo t’i Amasà hikanjy o nte-Iehodao hivory; f’ie nitambatse añe mandikoatse i andro nafè’e azey.
6 And David said to Abishai, Now will Sheba the son of Bichri do us more harm than did Absalom. Take thou thy lord's servants, and pursue after him, lest he get him fortified cities, and escape out of our sight.
Le hoe t’i Davide amy Abisay: Ie amy zao, handikoara’ i Seba ana’ i Bikrý ty joy nanoe’ i Absalome; rambeso arè o mpitoro’ i talè’oio, vaho horidaño, tsy mone ho rambese’e o rova aman-kijolio, vaho hipoliotse tsy ho onin-tika.
7 And there went out after him Joab's men, and the Cherethites and the Pelethites, and all the mighty men. And they went out of Jerusalem, to pursue after Sheba the son of Bichri.
Aa le niavotse hañoridañe aze ondati’ Ioabeo, naho o nte-Kereteo naho o nte-Peleteo, vaho o fanalolahy iabio; niakatse Ierosalaime hañoridañe i Sebà ana’ i Bikrý.
8 When they were at the great stone which is in Gibeon, Amasa came to meet them. And Joab was girded with his apparel of war that he had put on, and on it was a belt with a sword fastened upon his loins in the sheath of it. And as he went forth it fell out.
Ie nivotrak’ an-damilamy jabajaba’ i Gibone eo, le nimb’eo t’i Amasà nifanalaka am’ iereo. Nisikiñe o sarom-pialiañe fiombea’eo t’Ioabe, ama’e ty fiètse reketse fibara an-kotra’e nidiañe an-toha’e ao; aa ie nionjomb’eo le napontsoa’e.
9 And Joab said to Amasa, Is it well with thee, my brother? And Joab took Amasa by the beard with his right hand to kiss him.
Le hoe t’Ioabe amy Amasà: Akore v’iheo rahalahiko? Le rinambe’ Ioabe am-pità’e havana ty volon-tsomo’ i Amasà hañorofa’e aze.
10 But Amasa took no heed to the sword that was in Joab's hand. So he smote him with it in the body, and shed out his bowels to the ground, and struck him not again, and he died. And Joab and Abishai his brother pursued after Sheba the son of Bichri.
Fe tsy nioni’ i Amasà ty fibara am-pità’ Ioabe; aa le trinofa’e ambane’ ty pa’e fahalime ao, naho nivorotrak’ an-tane o aova’eo vaho tsy nipaok’ aze fañindroe’e; fa nihomake. Nañinjake i Sebà ana’ i Bikrý t’Ioabe naho i Abisay rahalahi’e.
11 And there stood by him one of Joab's young men, and said, He who favors Joab, and he who is for David, let him follow Joab.
Nijohañe eo ty ajalahi’ Ioabe nanao ty hoe; Ze miantoke Ioabe naho mpiamy Davide, ee te horihe’e t’Ioabe.
12 And Amasa lay wallowing in his blood in the midst of the highway. And when the man saw that all the people stood still, he carried Amasa out of the highway into the field, and cast a garment over him, when he saw that everyone who came by him stood still.
Nilomoloañe an-dio’e añivo’ i lalañey t’i Amasà. Aa ie niisa’e te nijohañe ama’e avao ze hene ondaty le nijinie’e t’i Amasà naho nente’e alafe’ i lalañey mb’ an-teteke mb’eo vaho nañifike saroñe ama’e, amy te nioni’e te fonga nijohañe eo avao ze nañarine aze.
13 When he was removed out of the highway, all the people went on after Joab to pursue after Sheba the son of Bichri.
Aa ie navike tsy ho an-dalañey le norihe’ ondaty iabio t’Ioabe, hañoridañe i Sebà ana’ i Bikrý.
14 And he went through all the tribes of Israel to Abel, and to Beth-maacah, and all the Berites. And they were gathered together, and also went after him.
Niranga ze hene fifokoa’ Israele re pak’ Abele, naho e Betemaakà, naho amo nte-Berìo; aa le nifanontoñe iereo, nanonjohy aze.
15 And they came and besieged him in Abel of Beth-maacah, and they cast up a mound against the city, and it stood against the rampart. And all the people who were with Joab battered the wall, to throw it down.
Nionjomb’ eo iereo haname aze e Abele’ i Betemaakà ao, nampitoboarañe tamboho i rovay, le tiname’ ondaty iabio i kijoliy; finofo’ ze hene’ ondati’ Ioabe i kijoliy handrotsak’ aze.
16 Then a wise woman out of the city cried out, Hear, hear. Say, I pray you, to Joab, Come near here, that I may speak with thee.
Nikaik’ amy zao ty rakemba mahihitse boak’ amy rovay, ty hoe: Eo hey nahareo, mijanjiña, taroño am’ Ioabe ty hañarine mb’etoa, hivolañako.
17 And he came near to her, and the woman said, Are thou Joab? And he answered, I am. Then she said to him, Hear the words of thy handmaid. And he answered, I do hear.
Aa ie niharinea’e le hoe i rakembay: Ioabe v’iheo? Le namale re: Izaho ‘nio. Le hoe re ama’e: Janjiño ty enta’ o anak’ ampata’oo. Le hoe ty natoi’e, Mitsanon-draho.
18 Then she spoke, saying, They were accustomed to speak in old time, saying, They shall surely ask counsel at Abel, and so they ended the matter.
Aa le hoe re, Sinaontsi’ o taoloo ty ti-hoe: Ie aman’ ontane, añontaneo e Abele ao: izay ty fampigadoña’ iareo.
19 I am of those who are peaceable and faithful in Israel. Thou seek to destroy a city and a mother in Israel. Why will thou swallow up the inheritance of Jehovah?
Mpiamo mpampilongo migahiñe e Israeleo atoan-draho; aa mipay handrotsake rova naho ty rene raike e Israele ao v’iheo, Ino ty hampigodraña’o ty lova’ Iehovà?
20 And Joab answered and said, Far be it, far be it from me that I should swallow up or destroy.
Natoi’ Ioabe ty hoe: Mitotse amako izay; lavitse ahy t’ie hagodrako ndra harotsako.
21 The matter is not so, but a man of the hill-country of Ephraim, Sheba the son of Bichri by name, has lifted up his hand against the king, even against David. Deliver him only, and I will depart from the city. And the woman said to Joab, Behold, his head shall be thrown to thee over the wall.
Tsy izay o rahao; fe nañonjo haoke hiatreatre i Davide mpanjaka t’indaty boak’ am-bohibohitse ao, i Sebà ana’ i Bikrý ty tahina’e. Aa le ie avao ty aseseo. Le hoe i rakembay am’ Ioabe: Ingo, hahiririñe ama’o hiranga o kijolio ty añambone’e.
22 Then the woman went to all the people in her wisdom. And they cut off the head of Sheba the son of Bichri, and threw it out to Joab. And he blew the trumpet, and they were dispersed from the city, every man to his tent. And Joab returned to Jerusalem to the king.
Aa le nimb’ am’ ondaty iabio i rakembay amy fahiti’ey. Le kinitsi’ iareo ty añambone’ i Sebà ana’i Bikrý vaho natorake mb’ am’ Ioabe ao. Pinopò’e amy zao i antsivay, le niparaitake boak’ amy rovay ondatio, songa mb’an-kiboho’e añe. Nimpoly mb’e Ierosalaime mb’ amy mpanjakay mb’eo t’Ioabe.
23 Now Joab was over all the army of Israel, and Benaiah the son of Jehoiada was over the Cherethites and over the Pelethites,
Ie amy zao: mpifehe’ ty valobohò’ Israele t’Ioabe vaho nifeleke o nte-Kereteo naho o nte-Peleteo t’i Benaià ana’ Iehoiadà;
24 and Adoram was over the men subject to task work, and Jehoshaphat the son of Ahilud was the recorder,
i Adorame ty mpifelek’ i habay vaho mpamolily t’Iehosafate, ana’ i Aklode;
25 and Sheva was scribe, and Zadok and Abiathar were priests,
mpanokitse t’i Seva, le mpisoroñe t’i Tsadoke naho i Abiatare;
26 and also Ira the Jairite was chief minister to David.
mpifehe amy Davide ka t’Irà nte-Iaire.
