< 2 Samuel 4 >

1 And when Saul's son Ish-bosheth had news that Abner was dead in Hebron, his hands became feeble, and all the Israelites were troubled.
Nígbà tí ọmọ Saulu sì gbọ́ pé, Abneri kú ní Hebroni, ọwọ́ rẹ̀ sì rọ, gbogbo Israẹli sì rẹ̀wẹ̀sì.
2 And Saul's son had two men, captains of bands, one named Baanah and the other Rechab, sons of Rimmon the Beerothite, of the tribe of Benjamin; (for Beeroth was at one time taken to be part of Benjamin:
Ọmọ Saulu sì ní ọkùnrin méjì tí í ṣe olórí ẹgbẹ́ ogun: a ń pe orúkọ ọ̀kan ní Baanah, àti orúkọ èkejì ní Rekabu, àwọn ọmọ Rimoni ará Beeroti ti àwọn ọmọ Benjamini (nítorí pé a sì ka Beeroti pẹ̀lú Benjamini).
3 But the people of Beeroth had gone in flight to Gittaim, where they have been living to this day.)
Àwọn ará Beeroti sì ti sálọ sí Gittaimu, wọ́n sì ṣe àtìpó níbẹ̀ títí ó fi di ọjọ́ òní yìí.
4 Now Jonathan, Saul's son, had a son whose feet were damaged. He was five years old when news of the death of Saul and Jonathan came from Jezreel, and the woman who took care of him took him up and went in flight: and while she was getting him away as quickly as she was able, he had a fall and his feet were damaged. His name was Mephibosheth.
(Jonatani ọmọ Saulu sì ti bí ọmọkùnrin kan tí ẹsẹ̀ rẹ̀ rọ, òun sì jẹ́ ọdún márùn-ún, nígbà tí ìròyìn dé ní ti Saulu àti Jonatani láti Jesreeli wá, olùtọ́ rẹ̀ sì gbé e, o sì sálọ, ó sì ṣe, bí ó sì ti ń yára láti sálọ, òun sì ṣubú, ó sì ya arọ. Orúkọ rẹ̀ a máa jẹ́ Mefiboṣeti.)
5 And Rechab and Baanah, the sons of Rimmon the Beerothite, went out and came to the house of Ish-bosheth in the heat of the day, when he was resting in the middle of the day. Now the woman who kept the door was cleaning grain, and sleep overcame her.
Àwọn ọmọ Rimoni, ará Beeroti, Rekabu àti Baanah sì lọ wọ́n sì wá síh ilé Iṣboṣeti ní ọ̀sán gangan, òun sì sinmi lórí ibùsùn kan ní ọjọ́-kanrí.
6 And Rechab and his brother Baanah got in without being seen.
Sì wò ó, bí olùṣọ́ ẹnu-ọ̀nà ilé náà ti ń gbọn àwọn pàǹtí, ó tòògbé ó sì sùn lọ, wọ́n sì wá sí àárín ilé náà, wọ́n sì ṣe bí ẹni pé wọ́n ń fẹ́ mú alikama; wọ́n sì gún un lábẹ́ inú. Rekabu àti Baanah arákùnrin rẹ̀ sì sálọ.
7 And when they came into the house, Ish-bosheth was stretched on his bed in his bedroom; and they made an attack on him and put him to death, and, cutting off his head, they took it with them and went by the road through the Arabah all night.
Nígbà tí wọ́n wọ ilé náà lọ, òun sì dùbúlẹ̀ lórí ibùsùn rẹ̀ nínú iyàrá rẹ̀, wọ́n sì pa á, wọ́n sì bẹ́ ẹ lórí, wọ́n gbé orí sálọ, wọ́n sì fi gbogbo òru rìn ni pẹ̀tẹ́lẹ̀ náà.
8 And they took the head of Ish-bosheth to David in Hebron, and said to the king, Here is the head of Ish-bosheth, the son of Saul your hater, who would have taken your life; the Lord has taken payment for the wrongs of my lord the king from Saul and his seed today.
Wọ́n sì gbé orí Iṣboṣeti tọ Dafidi wá ní Hebroni, wọ́n sì wí fún ọba pé, “Wò ó, orí Iṣboṣeti ọmọ Saulu ọ̀tá rẹ, tí ó ti ń wá ẹ̀mí rẹ kiri, Olúwa ti gbẹ̀san fún ọba olúwa mi lónìí lára Saulu àti lára irú-ọmọ rẹ̀.”
9 And David made answer to Rechab and his brother Baanah, the sons of Rimmon the Beerothite, and said to them, By the living Lord, who has kept me safe from all my trouble,
Dafidi sì dá Rekabu àti Baanah arákùnrin rẹ̀, àwọn ọmọ Rimoni ará Beeroti lóhùn, ó sì wí fún wọn pé, “Bí Olúwa ti ń bẹ, ẹni tí ó gba ẹ̀mí mi lọ́wọ́ gbogbo ìpọ́njú.
10 When one came to me with the news of Saul's death, in the belief that it would be good news, I took him and put him to death in Ziklag, which was the reward I gave him for his news:
Nígbà tí ẹnìkan rò fún mi pé, ‘Wò ó, Saulu ti kú,’ lójú ara rẹ̀ òun sì jásí ẹni tí ó mú ìyìnrere wá, èmi sì mú un, mo sì pa á ní Siklagi, ẹni tí ó ṣe bí òun ó rí nǹkan gbà nítorí ìròyìn rere rẹ̀.
11 How much more, when evil men have put an upright person to death, in his house, sleeping on his bed, will I take payment from you for his blood, and have you cut off from the earth?
Mélòó mélòó ni, nígbà tí àwọn ìkà ènìyàn pa olódodo ènìyàn kan ni ilé rẹ̀ lórí ibùsùn rẹ̀—ǹjẹ́ èmi ha sì lè ṣe aláìbéèrè ẹ̀jẹ̀ rẹ̀ lọ́wọ́ yín bí? Kí èmi sì mú yín kúrò láààyè.”
12 And David gave orders to his young men and they put them to death, cutting off their hands and their feet and hanging them up by the side of the pool in Hebron. But they took the head of Ish-bosheth and put it in its last resting-place with Abner's body in Hebron.
Dafidi sì fi àṣẹ fún àwọn ọ̀dọ́mọkùnrin rẹ̀, wọ́n sì pa wọ́n, wọ́n sì gé ọwọ́ àti ẹsẹ̀ wọn, a sì fi wọ́n há lórí igi ní Hebroni. Ṣùgbọ́n wọ́n mú orí Iṣboṣeti, wọ́n sì sin ín ní ibojì Abneri ní Hebroni.
