2 Samuel 3
1 Then a long struggle occurred between the house of Saul and the house of David, with David prospering and growing ever stronger, but the house of Saul decreasing daily.
Ita, adda napaut a gubat iti nagbaetan ti balay ni Saul ken iti balay ni David. Ket pimmigsa a pimmigsa ni David, ngem kimmapuy a kimmapuy ti balay ni Saul.
2 And sons were born to David in Hebron. And his firstborn son was Amnon, from Ahinoam the Jezreelite.
Naipasngay dagiti putot ni David idiay Hebron. Ti inauna a putot ket ni Amnon, a putotna kenni Ahinoam manipud Jezreel.
3 And after him, there was Chileab, from Abigail, the wife of Nabal of Carmel. Then the third was Absalom, the son of Maacah, the daughter of Talmai, the king of Geshur.
Ti maikaddua a putotna ket ni Keleab, nga impasngay ni Abigail, ti balo ni Nabal a taga Carmel. Ti maikatlo, ni Absalon, a putot ni Maaca a putot Tolmai nga ari ti Gesur.
4 Then the fourth was Adonijah, the son of Haggith. And the fifth was Shephatiah, the son of Abital.
Ti maikapat a putot ni David, ni Adonija nga anak ni Haggit. Ti maikalima a putotna ket ni Sefatias nga anak ni Abital,
5 Also, the sixth was Ithream, from Eglah, the wife of David. These were born to David at Hebron.
ken ti maikanem, ni Itream nga anak ti asawa ni David a ni Egla. Dagitoy dagiti lallaki a putot ni David a naiyanak idiay Hebron.
6 Then, while there was a battle between the house of Saul and the house of David, Abner, the son of Ner, was reigning over the house of Saul.
Dimteng ti tiempo kabayatan ti gubat iti nagbaetan ti balay ni Saul ken iti balay ni David a pinapigsa ni Abner ti bagina iti balay ni Saul.
7 Now Saul had a concubine named Rizpah, the daughter of Aiah. And Ishbosheth said to Abner,
Adda inkabbalay ni Saul a managan Rispa, a babai nga anak ni Aiah. Kinuna ni Isboset kenni Abner, “Apay a kinaiddam ti inkabbalay ni amak?”
8 “Why did you enter to the concubine of my father?” But he, being exceedingly angry at the words of Ishbosheth, said: “Am I the head of a dog against Judah this day? I have shown mercy to the house of Saul, your father, and to his brothers and friends. And I have not delivered you into the hands of David. And yet today you have sought me, so that you might rebuke me over a woman?
Ket makaunget unay ni Abner kadagiti sasao ni Isboset ket kinunana, “Maysaak kadi nga ulo ti aso ti Juda? Ita nga aldaw, ipakpakitak ti kinapudnok iti balay ni Saul, nga amam, kadagiti kakabsatna a lallaki ken kadagiti gagayyemna, babaen iti saanko panangipaima kenka kenni David. Ngem pabasulennak pay laeng ita nga aldaw maipapan iti dayta a babai?
9 May God do these things to Abner, and may he add these other things, if, in the same way that the Lord swore to David, I do not do so with him:
Aramiden koma ti Dios kaniak, Abner, ken nalablabes pay, no saanko nga aramiden para kenni David ti kas insapata ni Yahweh kenkuana,
10 that the kingdom be transferred from the house of Saul, and that the throne of David be elevated over Israel and over Judah, from Dan to Beersheba.”
nga iyakar ti pagarian manipud iti balay ni Saul ken panangisaad iti trono ni David iti entero nga Israel, ken iti entero a Juda, manipud Dan agingga iti Beerseba.”
11 And he was not able to respond anything to him, because he was in fear of him.
Saan a makasungbat ni Isboset kenni Abner, gapu ta mabuteng isuna kenkuana.
12 Therefore, Abner sent messengers to David for himself, saying, “Whose is the land?” and so that they would say, “Make a friendship with me, and my hand will be with you, and I will lead back all of Israel to you.”
Ket nangibaon ni Abner kadagiti mensahero a mapan kenni David a makisarita para kenkuana a mangibaga, “Siasino ti makindaga iti daytoy? Makitulagka kaniak ket makitamto nga adda kenka ti imak, a mangiyeg kenka iti amin nga Israel.”
13 And he said: “It is best. I will make a friendship with you. But one thing I ask of you, saying: You shall not see my face before you bring Michal, the daughter of Saul. And in this way, you shall come, and see me.”
Simmungbat ni David, “Nasayaat, makitulagak kenka. Ngem maysa a banag ti kiddawek kenka ket saanmo a makita ti rupak malaksid no iyegmo nga umuna ni Mikal, ti putot a babai ni Saul inton umaynak kitaen.”
14 Then David sent messengers to Ishbosheth, the son of Saul, saying, “Restore my wife Michal, whom I espoused to myself for one hundred foreskins of the Philistines.”
Ket nangibaon ni David kadagiti mensahero kenni Isboset, a putot ni Saul, a kunkunana, “Itedmo kaniak ti asawak a ni Mikal, ta binayadak iti gatad a sangagasut a kudil ti mabagbagi dagiti Filisteo.”
15 Therefore, Ishbosheth sent and took her from her husband Paltiel, the son of Laish.
Isu a nangibaon ni Isboset iti mangala kenni Mikal manipud iti asawana, a ni Paltiel a putot ni Lais.
16 And her husband was following her, weeping, as far as Bahurim. And Abner said to him, “Go and return.” And he returned.
Kimmuyog kenkuana ti asawana nga agsangsangit kabayatan ti ipapanna, ket simmurot kenkuana agingga idiay Bahurim. Ket kinuna ni Abner kenkuana, “Agawidkan.” Isu a nagsubli isuna.
17 Likewise, Abner sent word to the elders of Israel, saying: “As much yesterday as the day before, you were seeking David, so that he might reign over you.
Nakisarita ni Abner kadagiti panglakayen ti Israel a kunana, “Iti napalabas kinalikagumanyo nga agari koma ni David kadakayo.
18 Therefore, accomplish it now. For the Lord has spoken to David, saying: ‘By the hand of my servant David, I will save my people Israel from the hand of the Philistines and of all their enemies.’”
Aramidenyo itan. Gapu ta imbaga ni Yahweh maipapan kenni David a kunana, 'Babaen iti ima ti adipenko a ni David isalakankonto dagiti tattaok nga Israel manipud iti pannakabalin dagiti Filisteo ken kadagiti amin a kabusorda.'”
19 Then Abner also spoke to Benjamin. And he went away, so that he might speak to David in Hebron all that would be pleasing to Israel and to all of Benjamin.
Nakisao pay a mismo ni Abner kadagiti tattao ti Benjamin. Kalpasanna, napan pay ni Abner a makisarita kenni David idiay Hebron tapno ipalawagna amin a banbanag a tinarigagayan dagiti Israelita ken ti sangkabalayan ti Benjamin nga aramiden.
20 And he went to David in Hebron with twenty men. And David made a feast for Abner, and for his men who had arrived with him.
Idi simmangpet idiay Hebron da Abner ken dagiti duapulo kadagiti tattaona a mangkita kenni David, nangisagana ni David iti padaya para kadakuada.
21 And Abner said to David, “I will rise up, so that I may gather all of Israel to you, my lord the king, and so that I may enter into a pact with you, and so that you may reign over all, just as your soul desires.” Then, when David had led Abner away, and he had departed in peace,
Impalawag ni Abner kenni David, “Tumakderak ket ummongek amin nga Israel para kenka, apok nga ari, tapno makitulagda kenka tapno maiturayam dagiti amin a tarigagayam nga iturayan.” Pinapanaw ngarud ni David ni Abner, ket pimmanaw ni Abner nga addaan kapia.
22 immediately the servants of David and of Joab arrived, after having slain robbers, with exceedingly great spoils. But Abner was not with David in Hebron. For by then he had sent him away, and he had set out in peace.
Kalpasanna, simmangpet dagiti soldado ni David ken ni Joab manipud iti panangrautda ket adu ti insangpetda a sinamsamda. Ngem awanen ni Abner iti ayan ni David idiay Hebron. Pinapanawen ni David, ket nakapanawen ni Abner addaan kapia.
23 And Joab, and the entire army that was with him, had arrived afterward. And so, it was reported to Joab, explaining that Abner, the son of Ner, went to the king, and he dismissed him, and he went away in peace.
Idi simmangpet da Joab ken amin nga armada a kaduana, imbagada kenni Joab, “Ni Abner a putot ni Ner ket napan iti ari, ket pinapanaw ti ari isuna, ket pimmanaw ni Abner nga addaan kapia.”
24 And Joab entered to the king, and he said: “What have you done? Behold, Abner came to you. Why did you dismiss him, so that he has gone and departed?
Ket napan ni Joab iti ayan ti Ari ket kinunana, “Ania ti inaramidmo? Kitaeman, immay ni Abner kenka! Apay a pinapanawmo isuna, ket awanen isuna?
25 Do you not know, about Abner, the son of Ner, that he came to you for this, so that he might deceive you, and might know of your departure and your return, and so that he might know all that you do?”
Saanmo kadi nga ammo nga immay ni Abner a putot ni Ner tapno allilawennaka ken tapno ammoenna dagiti panggepmo, ken adalenna ti tunggal aramidem?”
26 And so, Joab, going out from David, sent messengers after Abner, and he brought him back from the cistern of Sirah, without David knowing.
Idi pinanawan ni Joab ni David, nangibaon ni Joab kadagiti mensahero a mangkamakam kenni Abner, ket insublida isuna manipud iti bubon ti Sira, ngem saan nga ammo ni David daytoy.
27 And when Abner had returned to Hebron, Joab took him alone to the middle of the gate, so that he might speak to him, but with deceit. And there, he stabbed him in the groin, and he died, in revenge for the blood of Asahel, his brother.
Idi nakasubli ni Abner idiay Hebron, inayaban isuna ni Joab idiay igid ti ruangan tapno makisarita kenkuana iti sililimed, ket sadiay a dinuyok ni Joab ti tianna ket pinapatayna isuna. Iti daytoy a wagas, imbales ni Joab ti dara ni Asael a kabsatna.
28 And when David had heard of it, now that the matter was done, he said: “I and my kingdom are clean before the Lord, even forever, of the blood of Abner, the son of Ner.
Idi nangngeg ni David ti maipapan iti daytoy ket kinunana, “Siak ken ti pagariak ket agnanayon nga inosente iti sangoanan ni Yahweh maipapan iti dara ni Abner nga anak ni Ner. “Agdissuor koma ti dibbut iti pannakatay ni Abner iti ulo ni Joab ken iti amin a balay ti amana.
29 And may it fall upon the head of Joab, and upon the entire house of his father. And may there not fail to be, in the house of Joab, one who suffers from a flow of seed, or one who is leprous, or one who is effeminate, or one who falls by the sword, or one who is in need of bread.”
Adda koma a kanayon iti pamiliana ti agtutot wenno sakit ti kudil wenno lugpi ken agsarrukod a magna wenno matay iti kampilan wenno agkurang iti makan.
30 And so, Joab and his brother Abishai killed Abner, because he had killed their brother Asahel at Gibeon, during the battle.
Isu a pinatay da Joab ken Abisai a kabsatna ni Abner, gapu ta napatayna ti kasbatda a ni Asael iti ranget idiay Gabaon.
31 Then David said to Joab, and to all the people who were with him, “Tear your garments, and gird yourselves with sackcloth, and mourn before the funeral procession of Abner.” Moreover, king David himself was following the casket.
Kinuna ni David kenni Joab ken kadagiti amin a tattao a kakaduana, “Pisangenyo dagiti pagan-anayyo, agarwatkayo iti nakirsang a lupot, ket dung-awanyo ti bangkay ni Abner.” Ket nagna ni David iti likudan ti bangkay idi maipunpon daytoy.
32 And when they had buried Abner in Hebron, king David lifted up his voice, and he wept over the burial mound of Abner. And all the people also wept.
Intanemda ni Abner idiay Hebron. Impigsa ti ari ti sangitna idiay tanem ni Abner, ket nagsangit met dagiti amin a tattao.
33 And the king, mourning and lamenting Abner, said: “By no means has Abner died the way that cowards usually die.
Nagleddaang ti ari ken nagdung-aw, “Rumbeng kadi a matay ni Abner a kas iti pannakatay ti maysa a maag?
34 Your hands are not bound, and your feet are not weighed down with fetters. But just as men often fall before the sons of iniquity, so you have fallen.” And while repeating this, all the people wept over him.
Saan nagalotan dagiti imam. Saan a nakawaran dagiti sakam. Kas iti pannakapasag ti tao iti sangoanan dagiti annak ti awanan hustisia, isu a napasagka.” Nagsangit manen dagiti tattao gapu kenkuana.
35 And when the entire multitude had arrived to take food with David, while it was still broad daylight, David swore, saying, “May God do these things to me, and may he add these other things, if I taste bread or anything else before the sun sets.”
Immay dagiti amin a tattao a mangallukoy kenni David a mangan kabayatan nga aldaw pay laeng, ngem nagsapata ni David, “Aramiden koma ti Dios kaniak, ken ad-ada pay koma, no rumamanak ti tinapay wenno anaiman sakbay a lumnek ti init.”
36 And all the people heard it, and everything that the king did in the sight of the entire people was pleasing to them.
Nadlaw dagiti amin a tattao ti panagladingit ni David, ken naay-ayoda iti daytoy, aniaman nga inaramid ti ari ket naay-ayoda.
37 And every common person, and all of Israel, realized on that day that the killing of Abner, the son of Ner, had not been done by the king.
Isu a naawatan amin dagiti tattao ken amin nga Israelita a saan a pagayatan ti ari a mapapatay iti dayta nga aldaw ni Abner nga anak ni Ner.
38 The king also said to his servants: “Could you be ignorant that a leader and a very great man has fallen today in Israel?
Kinuna ti ari kadagiti adipenna “Saanyo kadi nga ammo a maysa a prinsipe ken natan-ok a tao ti napasag iti daytoy nga aldaw iti Israel?
39 But I am still tender, and yet anointed king. And these men of the sons of Zeruiah are too harsh for me. May the Lord repay whoever does evil in accord with his malice.”
Ken nakapsutak ita nga aldaw, uray no napulotanak nga ari. Dagitoy a lallaki, a putot ni Zeruyas, ket naranggas unay kaniak. Pagbayaden koma ni Yahweh dagiti managdakdakes, babaen iti panangdusana kenkuana gapu iti kinadangkesna, a kas maikari kenkuana.”
