< 2 Samuel 4 >
1 Then Ishbosheth, the son of Saul, heard that Abner had fallen in Hebron. And his hands were weakened, and all of Israel was troubled.
Kane Ish-Bosheth wuod Saulo owinjo ni Abner nosetho Hebron, chunye noa, kendo Israel duto luoro nomako.
2 Now the son of Saul had two men, leaders among robbers. The name of the one was Baanah, and the name of the other was Rechab, sons of Rimmon, a Beerothite from the sons of Benjamin. For indeed, Beeroth, too, was reputed with Benjamin.
Koro wuod Saulo ne ni kod ji ariyo mane otelo ni jolweny mane dhi peyo. Achiel kuomgi ne nyinge Baana to machielo ne iluongo ni Rekab; ne gin yawuot Rimon ja-Beeroth, moa dhood Benjamin nikech Beeroth ne ikwano kaka achiel kuom jo-Benjamin,
3 And the Beerothites had fled into Gittaim. And they were strangers there, until that time.
nikech jo-Beeroth noringo modhi Gitaim mi gibedo kuno kaka jodak nyaka chil kawuono.
4 Now Jonathan, the son of Saul, had a son with disabled feet. For he was five years old when the report about Saul and Jonathan arrived from Jezreel. And so, his nurse, taking him up, fled. And while she was hurrying, so that she might flee, he fell and was made lame. And he was called Mephibosheth.
Jonathan wuod Saulo ne nigi wuowi mane tiendene ariyo duto ongʼol. Ne en ja-higni abich kane wach Saulo gi Jonathan obiro koa Jezreel. Japite ne okawe mi oringo, kane orikni mondo owuogi nyathi nogore piny mobet rangʼol. Nyinge ne en Mefibosheth.
5 And so, the sons of Rimmon the Beerothite, Rechab and Baanah, arrived and entered the house of Ishbosheth, in the heat of the day. And he was sleeping on his bed at midday. And the doorkeeper of the house, who was cleaning the wheat, fell fast asleep.
Koro Rekab gi Baana, yawuot Rimon ja-Beeroth, ne owuok mondo odhi e od Ish-Boseth, negichopo odiechiengʼ tir sa ma piny liet, noyudo ka oyweyo.
6 Then they entered the house secretly, taking the ears of grain. And Rechab and his brother Baanah stabbed him in the groin, and they fled away.
Negidonjo e ot maiye ka gima gidwaro kawo ngʼatno kendo, negichwowo bund iye. Eka Rekab gi owadgi ma Baana nopusore modhi.
7 For when they had entered the house, he was sleeping on his bed in a closed room. And striking him, they killed him. And taking his head, they departed by the way of the desert, walking throughout the night.
Negidonjo e ot kane oyudo onindo e kitandane e ode kor nindo. Bangʼ kane gisechwowe ma ginege, negingʼado wiye oko. Negikawo wiye ma gidhigo kendo negiwuotho otieno duto ka giluwo yor Araba.
8 And they brought the head of Ishbosheth to David in Hebron. And they said to the king: “Behold, the head of Ishbosheth, the son of Saul, your enemy, who was seeking your life. And so, the Lord has avenged my lord the king, this day, from Saul and from his offspring.”
Negikelo wi Ish-Boseth ni Daudi e piny Hebron mi giwachone ruoth niya, “Ma en wi Ish-Boseth wuod Saulo ma jasiki, mane dwaro negi. Odiechiengni Jehova Nyasaye osechako chulo kuor ni Saulo gi kothe ne ruodha ma en ruoth.”
9 But David, responding to Rechab and his brother Baanah, the sons of Rimmon the Beerothite, said to them: “As the Lord lives who has rescued my soul from all distress,
Daudi nodwoko Rekab gi owadgi ma Baana yawuot Rimon ja-Beeroth niya, “Akwongʼora gi nying Jehova Nyasaye mangima, moseresa e masiche duto,
10 the one who reported to me and said, ‘Saul is dead,’ who was thinking that he announced good news, I apprehended. And at Ziklag I killed him who ought to have been given a reward for the news.
kane ngʼato owachona ni, ‘Saulo otho,’ noparo ni okelona wach maber. Ne amake mine onege Ziklag. Mano e mich manamiye kuom kelona wach.
11 How much more so now, when impious men have put to death an innocent man in his own house, upon his bed, shall I not require his blood from your hand, and take you away from the earth?”
To koro nachiw kum malit machalo nadi ka joricho osenego ngʼat maonge ketho e ode owuon kendo e kitandane owuon? Donge owinjore mondo achulni kuor kuom remo ma usechwero, mondo ua e piny!”
12 And so, David commanded his servants, and they put them to death. And cutting off their hands and feet, they suspended them up over the pool in Hebron. But the head of Ishbosheth they took and buried in the sepulcher of Abner at Hebron.
Omiyo nochiwo chik ni joge, mine ginegogi. Negingʼado lwetgi gi tiendgi mine giliero ringregi e dho yawo man Hebron. Negikawo wi Ish-Boseth ma giyiko e liend Abner e Hebron.
