< 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.
Hagi anantetira Deviti naga'ene Soli naga'mo'zanena za'zate hara hu'za vu'naze. Deviti naga'mo'za mago'ane hanaveti'za vazageno, Soli naga'mofo hanavemo'a ome osi osi huno vu'ne.
2 And sons were born to David in Hebron. And his firstborn son was Amnon, from Ahinoam the Jezreelite.
Hagi Deviti'a Hebronima mani'neno'a, ne' mofavrezaga zamante'ne. Hagi zage mofavremofo agi'a Amnonikino, Jezrili kumateti a'mo Ahinoamu kasente'ne.
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.
Hagi nampa 2 mofavrea Kiliabukino, Karmeli kumateti ne' Nebali kento a'ma Abigelima eri'nea a'mo kasente'ne. Hagi nampa 3 mofavre'a Absalomukino, Gesuri kumate kini ne'mofo mofa'mo Maka kasente'ne.
4 Then the fourth was Adonijah, the son of Haggith. And the fifth was Shephatiah, the son of Abital.
Hagi nampa 4 mofavre'a Adonijakino Hagiti kasentene. Hagi nampa 5fu mofavrea Sefatiakino, Abitari kasente'ne.
5 Also, the sixth was Ithream, from Eglah, the wife of David. These were born to David at Hebron.
Hagi nampa 6is mofavrea Itreamukino, Egla kasente'ne. E'i ana mofavrezaga Deviti'a Hebroni mani'neno kasezamante'ne.
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.
Hagi ha'ma Deviti naga'ene Soli naga'enema nehaza knafina, Abna'a hanave sondia ne' Soli sondia vahepina mani'ne.
7 Now Saul had a concubine named Rizpah, the daughter of Aiah. And Ishbosheth said to Abner,
Hagi Soli'ma mago a'ma eri'neana, Aia mofa Rizpa eri'ne. Hagi Is-boseti'a Abnankura huno, nahigenka nenafa ara antenka mase'nane?
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?
Hagi Is-boseti'ma hiankegura Abnana tusi arimpa ahegeno amanage hu'ne, Juda vahe'mokizmi zukake kra nagra mani'nogenka nagrira balia rugantugma nehano? Hagi maka'zama negafa Soline, naga'ane, roneanema navesinezmante'na kagri'ma kavre'na Deviti azampima ome onte'noa zante miza naminaku nehunka, ama ara azeri savri hu'nane hunka nehano?
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:
Hagi Ra Anumzamo'ma Devitima huvempa hunte'nesia zama nagrama osanugeno'a, Anumzamo'a nagrira nazeri haviza hugahie.
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.”
Hagi nagra Abna'na Soli kini trara Deviti eri amisugeno, Israeli vahe'ene Juda vahe'ene Dani vahera noti kazigati vuno sauti kaziga Berseba uhanatisigeno agrake kegava hugahie.
11 And he was not able to respond anything to him, because he was in fear of him.
Hagi Is-boseti'a mago kea osu'ne. Na'ankure Abnankura tusi'a koro hu'ne.
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.”
Anante Abna'a ke erino vu vahete kea Devitina atrenteno anage hu'ne, Ama mopa kagri mopa me'neanki, nagri'ene kea eme huhagerafinka huvempa huge'na, nagra miko Israeli vahera zamazeri rukrahe hanena kagrite eho.
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.”
Higeno Deviti'a ana kerera anage hu'ne, Knarekita huvempa huta huhagerafigahue. Hianagi Soli mofa Mikelima kagra avrenka eme namisunka, nagri navufina kegahane.
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.”
Huteno Deviti'a ke erino vu vahete Is-bosetina kea atrenteno anage hu'ne, A'ni'a Mikelina avrenka eme namio. Na'ankure nagra 100'a Filistia vahe zamahe'na ko oku zamavufa anonteti mizase'noa a' mani'ne.
15 Therefore, Ishbosheth sent and took her from her husband Paltiel, the son of Laish.
Hagi Is-boseti'a ana nanekema nentahino'a mago'a vahe huzamantege'za, Laisi nemofo Paltia nenaro Mikelina ome avre'za e'naze.
16 And her husband was following her, weeping, as far as Bahurim. And Abner said to him, “Go and return.” And he returned.
Hianagi ana ara avre'za neageno, neve'a zavineteno avaririno Bahurimi kumate egeno, Abna'a huntegeno, ete rukrahe huno kuma'arega vu'ne.
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.
Hagi Abna'a Israeli ranra vahera zamavare atru huno anage huno zamasami'ne, Kotera Devitinku kinitia manigahie huta tamagra hu'naze.
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.’”
Hagi menina ana ketamire otita anaza hiho. Na'ankure Ra Anumzamo'a Deviti huvempa hunteno, Filistia vahe zamazampinti'ene ha' vahe'tamimofo zamazampintira, Israeli vahera eri'za ne'ni'a Deviti zamagu'vazigahie hu'ne.
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.
Hagi anante Abna'a viazamo Benzameni nagara ome ana kea nezamasamino, ete ana kea erino Devitinte Hebroni vuno, hago maka Israeli vahe'ene Benzameni naga'mo'za mago zamarimpa hu'naze huno ome asami'ne.
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.
Hagi Abna'a 20'a vahe'ene Deviti'ma mani'nerega Hebroni kumate egeno, Deviti'a rama'a ne'za krezmante'ne.
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,
Hagi ne'za nete'za Abna'a Devitina anage huno asami'ne, Natrege'na vu'na miko Israeli vahera rani kinimokare ome zamazeri atru hanuge'za, zamagra huvempa hu'za kagrira kini kazeri otisagenka, kagri'ma kavesiniaza hunka kegava huzamantegahane. Higeno Deviti'a Abnana atregeno rimpa frune vu'ne.
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.
Hagi Abna'ma Hebroni kuma'ma anama atreno'ma nevigeno'a, Deviti sondia vahe'ene Joapu'enena ha'ma nehazaregatira hapinti'ma eri'naza zantamina rama'aza eri'za e'naze. Hianagi Abna'a Deviti'enena Hebroni kumatera omani'ne. Na'ankure Deviti'a ko Abnana huntegeno rimpa frune vu'ne.
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.
Hagi Joapu'ene sondia vahe'enema ehanatizage'za mago'a vahe'mo'za Joapuna asami'za, Neri nemofo Abna'a kini nete egeno, kini nemo'a magozana huonteno atregeno rimpa frune vu'ne.
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?
Higeno Joapu'a ame huno kini nete vuno amanage ome hu'ne, Na'a hu'nane? Abna'ma kagrite'ma egenka, nahigenka amnea atrankeno agra vu'ne?
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?”
Hagi kagra antahi'nane, Neri nemofo Abna'a regavatga huno maka zama nehanaza ke'naku e'ne.
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.
Anante Joapu'a Abnana ke atrentege'za Sira tinkerire nevige'za ome ke'za avre'za e'naze. Hagi e'i ana zama hiazana Deviti'a antahino keno osu'ne.
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.
Hagi Abnama ehanatigeno'a, Joapu'a avreno rankuma kafante agri'akema kema asaminaku'ma hiaza huno avreno viazamo, negana Asahelima ahe fri'nea zanteku huno bainati kazi ome erino rimpa retragufegeno fri'ne.
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.
Hagi henkama ana ke'ma Deviti'ma nentahino anage hu'ne, Nagrama kegava hu'noa vahe'mo'zane nagranena Ra Anumzamofo avufina keta antahita osu'nonankita, Neri nemofo Abna'ma fri'nea zamofo kora kumi'mofo knazamo'a tagritera omenetfa hugahie.
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.”
Hagi Abnama ahe fri'nea zamofo knazama'a Joapu'ene mika nefa naga'amo'zane erigahaze. Hagi Joapu'ene agripinti'ma fore'ma hanaza vahe'mofona namu zamarege, fugo kri erige, azompare vano huge, bainati kazinu zamahe frige, nezanku zamagatege hanige'za frigahaze.
30 And so, Joab and his brother Abishai killed Abner, because he had killed their brother Asahel at Gibeon, during the battle.
E'ina hu'negu Joapu'ene nefu Abisaikea Abnana ahe'na'e. Na'ankure agra nezanafu Asahelima Gibioni kumate'ma hapima ahe'nea zanku huke ahe'na'e.
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.
Hagi anante Joapune maka agranema mani'naza vahera Deviti'a zamasamino, Kukenatamia tagato nehuta, tamasunku kukena huta tamasunku huta Abnankura zavira ateho. Hagi kini ne' Deviti'a vahe'ma eri'zama nevaza vahe zamefi e'ne.
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.
Hagi Abnana Hebroni ome asentageno, keri'arera kini ne'mo'a tusi zavi ome atege'za, mika'mo'za Abnankura zavi ate'naze.
33 And the king, mourning and lamenting Abner, said: “By no means has Abner died the way that cowards usually die.
Hagi kini ne'mo'a amanage huno asunku zagamera Abnantera hu'ne, Abna'a negi vahera omani'neanagi, na'a higeno neginagi vaheknara huno frie?
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.
Kazantera nofira kionte'za seni nofiteti kagarera kionte'naze. Hagi kagrira kefo vahe'mo'za kahe frize. Hige'za miko vahe'mo'za Abnankura tusi zavi ate'naze.
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.”
Anante hanina osunege'za miko vahe'mo'za e'za Devitinkura ne'zana no hu'za hu'naze. Hianagi Deviti'a huvempage huno, Zagemo'ma uorami'nenke'na ne'zama nenugeno'a, Anumzamo'a nahe frigahie.
36 And all the people heard it, and everything that the king did in the sight of the entire people was pleasing to them.
Hagi miko vahe'mo'za anazama kini ne'mo'ma hiazama nege'za muse nehu'za, ko'ma hu'nea zanku'enena muse hu'naze.
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.
Anama hige'za miko vahe'mo'za antahi ama nehu'za, Abna'ma fri'nea zamofona kini ne' Deviti'a antahino keno osu'ne hu'za hu'naze.
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?
Hagi anante kini ne'mo'a eri'za vahe'aramina zamasamino, menina Israeli vahepima rankva vahe'ma fri'neana tamagra antahita keta osu'nazo?
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.”
Hagi Ra Anumzamo'a kini manio huno huhampri nante'neanagi, nagrira hanaveni'a omane'ne. Hagi ama Zeruia nemofo Joapu'ene Abisai'enena hanave nentake netre mani'na'ankina, nagra zanazeri rava hegara osu'noe. Hagi havi avu'ava hu'nemofona Ra Anumzamo azeri havizana hanie.
