2 Samuel 17
1 Moreover Ahithophel said to Absalom, “Let me now choose twelve thousand men, and I will arise and pursue after David tonight.
Tinovo’ i Ahitofele amy Absalome ty hoe: Angao ho joboñeko ty lahilahy rai-ale-tsi-ro’arivo henaneo, le anito haleñe
2 I will come on him while he is weary and exhausted, and will make him afraid. All the people who are with him will flee. I will strike the king only,
ty hivotrahako ama’e, ie mokotse naho am-pitàñe maleme, hampangebakebak’ aze; le hitriban-day ondaty iaby mindre ama’eo vaho i mpanjakay avao ty ho lafaeko;
3 and I will bring back all the people to you. The man whom you seek is as if all returned. All the people shall be in peace.”
le hampoliko ama’o ondaty iabio; aa ie fonga nitampoly ondatio naho tsy i paia’oy avao, le hene hanintsiñe ondatio.
4 The saying pleased Absalom well, and all the elders of Israel.
Nitea’ i Absalome naho ze hene mpiaolo’ Israele i saontsy zay.
5 Then Absalom said, “Now call Hushai the Archite also, and let’s hear likewise what he says.”
Le hoe t’i Absalome: Kanjio henaneo t’i Khosaý nte-Ereke le ho janjiñen-tika ka ty ho saontsie’e.
6 When Hushai had come to Absalom, Absalom spoke to him, saying, “Ahithophel has spoken like this. Shall we do what he says? If not, speak up.”
Aa ie nipok’ amy Absalome eo t’i Khosaý, le hoe t’i Absalome ama’e: Nanao hoe zao ty Ahitofele; Horihen-tika hao i nisaontsie’ey? fa naho tsie le mitaroña.
7 Hushai said to Absalom, “The counsel that Ahithophel has given this time is not good.”
Le hoe t’i Khosaý amy Absalome: Tsy soa ty toro-hevetse natolo’ i Ahitofele henaneo.
8 Hushai said moreover, “You know your father and his men, that they are mighty men, and they are fierce in their minds, like a bear robbed of her cubs in the field. Your father is a man of war, and will not lodge with the people.
Tinovo’ i Khosaý ty hoe: Fohi’o ty rae’o naho ondati’eo, t’ie fanalolahy, naho manahake ty dobe tinavañ’ anak’ an-kivok’ ao ty hafain’ afero añ’arofo’ iareo; toe mpañotakotake ty rae’o, vaho tsy hitoetse am’ ondati’eo.
9 Behold, he is now hidden in some pit, or in some other place. It will happen, when some of them have fallen at the first, that whoever hears it will say, ‘There is a slaughter among the people who follow Absalom!’
Oniño t’ie mietak’ an-kadaha ndra an-toets’ ila’e henaneo; aa ie vaho miambotrak’ am’iereo am-baloha’e, le hanao ty hoe ze mahajanjiñe izay: Fizamanañe ty zoeñe am’ondaty mañorike i Absalomeo;
10 Even he who is valiant, whose heart is as the heart of a lion, will utterly melt; for all Israel knows that your father is a mighty man, and those who are with him are valiant men.
le akore amy zao i fanalolahiy, i aman-tron-dionay, kanao hitranake; fa songa fohi’ Israele te ondaty maozatse ty rae’o naho sindre fanalolahy o mpiama’eo.
11 But I counsel that all Israel be gathered together to you, from Dan even to Beersheba, as the sand that is by the sea for multitude; and that you go to battle in your own person.
Aa le ty hoe ty fanoroako: te hifanontoñe ama’o t’Israele iaby boake Dane pake Beeresebà manahake ty faseñe añ’olon-driake ey ami’ty hatsifotofoto’e; le ihe ka ro ho mb’an-kotakotak’ ao.
12 So we will come on him in some place where he will be found, and we will light on him as the dew falls on the ground, then we will not leave so much as one of him and of all the men who are with him.
Aa le hivotrak’ ama’e tika amy ze toetse haharendrehañe aze; hipetak’ ama’e manahake ty fipetahan-jono an-tane; leo raike tsy hapon-tika ndra ie ndra o mpiama’eo.
13 Moreover, if he has gone into a city, then all Israel will bring ropes to that city, and we will draw it into the river, until there is not one small stone found there.”
Tovo izay he ie mitolila mb’ an-drova ao, le hene hinday taly t’Israele vaho ho kozozoten-tika mb’ am-bavatane ao ampara’ te tsy hanjoàñe vato kede.
14 Absalom and all the men of Israel said, “The counsel of Hushai the Archite is better than the counsel of Ahithophel.” For the LORD had ordained to defeat the good counsel of Ahithophel, to the intent that the LORD might bring evil on Absalom.
Aa le hoe t’i Absalome naho o hene ondati’ Israeleo: Toe soa ty toro-heve’ i Khosaý nte-Ereke te amy tolo-keve’ i Akitofeley—amy te linili’ Iehovà ty handreketañe ty toro-hevetse soa’ i Akitofele, hametsaha’ Iehovà hankàñe amy Absalome.
15 Then Hushai said to Zadok and to Abiathar the priests, “Ahithophel counseled Absalom and the elders of Israel that way; and I have counseled this way.
Aa le hoe t’i Khosaý amy Tsadoke naho i Abiatare mpisoroñe: Zao naho zao ty natoro’ i Akitofele amy Absalome naho amo roandria’ Israleo; vaho zao naho zao ka ty natoloko.
16 Now therefore send quickly, and tell David, saying, ‘Do not lodge tonight at the fords of the wilderness, but by all means pass over, lest the king be swallowed up, and all the people who are with him.’”
Aa le mañitrifa masìka, vaho ano ty hoe amy Davide: Ko mitoetse amo montom-patrambeio te anito haleñe, fa mitsàha ndra manao akore; tsy mone habotseke i mpanjakay naho ze hene ondaty mindre ama’e.
17 Now Jonathan and Ahimaaz were staying by En Rogel; and a female servant used to go and report to them, and they went and told King David; for they could not risk being seen coming into the city.
Ie amy zao, nitoboke e En-drogele t’Ionatane naho i Akimatse; naho nimpiheo am’ iereo ty mpitoroñe nitalily; le nimb’ amy Davide mpanjaka añe ka iereo nitalily, soa tsy ho oniñe mimoake amy rovay.
18 But a boy saw them, and told Absalom. Then they both went away quickly and came to the house of a man in Bahurim, who had a well in his court; and they went down there.
Fe nitrea’ ty ajalahy le natalili’e amy Absalome; aa le nivoratsake iereo naho nivotrak’ añ’anjomba’ ondaty e Bakorime ze amam-bovoñe an-toe’e vaho nizotso ao.
19 The woman took and spread the covering over the well’s mouth, and spread out crushed grain on it; and nothing was known.
Rinambe’ ty rakemba ty tako’e naho nakape’e am-bava’ i vovoñey, vaho naparatsa’e ambone’e eo ty tsako lisañe; le tsy nifohiñe.
20 Absalom’s servants came to the woman to the house; and they said, “Where are Ahimaaz and Jonathan?” The woman said to them, “They have gone over the brook of water.” When they had sought and could not find them, they returned to Jerusalem.
Pok’ amy rakembay amy anjombay ty mpitoro’ i Absalome nanao ty hoe: Aia t’i Akimatse naho Ionatane? Le hoe i rakembay tam’ iereo: Fa nitsake i torahan-dranoy iereo. Aa le nitsoeke fe tsy nahaisake le nimpoly mb’e Ierosalaime mb’eo.
21 After they had departed, they came up out of the well and went and told King David; and they said to David, “Arise and pass quickly over the water; for thus has Ahithophel counseled against you.”
Aa ie nienga, le niakatse i vovoñey iereo vaho nionjomb’eo nitalily amy Davide; le nanao ty hoe amy Davide: Miongaha, masikà, itsaho i ranoy; fa inao ty toro-heve’ i Akitofele ty ama’o.
22 Then David arose, and all the people who were with him, and they passed over the Jordan. By the morning light there lacked not one of them who had not gone over the Jordan.
Aa le niongake t’i Davide, rekets’ o hene’ ondaty nindre ama’eo, vaho nitsake Iordaney; aa ie niporea’ ty maraindray leo raike tsy nipoke tsy tafatsake Iordaney.
23 When Ahithophel saw that his counsel was not followed, he saddled his donkey, arose, and went home to his city, set his house in order, and hanged himself; and he died, and was buried in the tomb of his father.
Aa naho nioni’ i Akitofele te tsy noriheñe i toro-heve’ey, nidiaña’e i borìke’ey naho nimpoly mb’ añ’ anjomba’e mb’ an-drova’e añe, le nambine’e i anjomba’ey, vaho nameo vatañe; nihomake, naho nalentek’ an-kiborin-drae’e ao.
24 Then David came to Mahanaim. Absalom passed over the Jordan, he and all the men of Israel with him.
Ie pok’e Maknaime añe t’i Davide vaho nitsake Iordaney t’i Absalome, mindre amo fonga’ ondati’ Israeleo.
25 Absalom set Amasa over the army instead of Joab. Now Amasa was the son of a man whose name was Ithra the Israelite, who went in to Abigail the daughter of Nahash, sister to Zeruiah, Joab’s mother.
Nampifehè’ i Absalome i valobohòkey t’i Amasà hasolo Ioabe. Ana’ t’i ana’ Israele atao Iterà nimoak’ amy Abigale ana’ i Nakase, rahavave’ i Tseroià, rene’ Ioabey t’i Amasà.
26 Israel and Absalom encamped in the land of Gilead.
Aa le nañoren-kibohotse an-tane Gilade ao t’Israele naho i Absalome.
27 When David had come to Mahanaim, Shobi the son of Nahash of Rabbah of the children of Ammon, and Machir the son of Ammiel of Lodebar, and Barzillai the Gileadite of Rogelim,
Ie fa nivotrake e Maknaime t’i Davide le niheo mb’eo t’i Sobý ana’ i Nakase afo’ i Rabà, nte Amone naho i Makire, ana’ i Amiele nte-Lodebàre vaho i Barzilas nte-Gilade boake Rogelime
28 brought beds, basins, earthen vessels, wheat, barley, meal, parched grain, beans, lentils, roasted grain,
ninday tihy naho sajoa naho valàñe tane naho vare-bolè naho vare hordea naho lilañe naho tsako-tono naho antake naho mahalay naho poataran’ ampemba
29 honey, butter, sheep, and cheese of the herd, for David and for the people who were with him to eat; for they said, “The people are hungry, weary, and thirsty in the wilderness.”
naho tantele naho ronono dero naho añondry vaho habobon’ añombe amy Davide naho ondaty nindre ama’e iabio, hikama, ami’ty asa’ iareo ty hoe: Fa saliko naho mifoezapoezake vaho taliñiereñe ondaty am-patrambeio.
