2 Samuel 1
1 Now it happened that, after Saul died, David returned from the slaughter of Amalek, and he remained for two days at Ziklag.
Tukun Saul el misa, David el foloko ke el tuh kutangla mwet Amalek, na el muta in acn Ziklag ke len luo.
2 Then, on the third day, a man appeared, arriving from the camp of Saul, with his garments torn and dust sprinkled on his head. And when he came to David, he fell on his face, and he reverenced.
Ke len toko ah, mwet fusr se tuku liki nien aktuktuk lal Saul. El tuh seya nuknuk lal ac sang fohkfok nu fin sifal in akkalemye asor lal. El som nu yorol David ac srimi nwe infohk uh in akfulatyal.
3 And David said to him, “Where have you come from?” And he said to him, “I have fled from the camp of Israel.”
David el siyuk sel, “Kom tuku ya me?” El topuk, “Nga kaingla liki nien aktuktuk lun mwet Israel.”
4 And David said to him: “What is the word that has happened? Reveal it to me.” And he said: “The people have fled from the battle, and many of the people have fallen and died. Moreover, Saul and his son Jonathan have passed away.”
David el fahk, “Fahk nu sik lah mea sikyak.” Na el topuk, “Mwet mweun lasr ah kaingla liki mweun ah, ac pukanten mwet lasr anwuki. Saul ac Jonathan wen natul, wi pac misa.”
5 And David said to the youth who was reporting to him, “How do you know that Saul and his son Jonathan have died?”
Na David el fahk, “Kom etu fuka lah Saul ac Jonathan misa?”
6 And the youth, who was reporting it to him, said: “I arrived by chance on mount Gilboa. And Saul was lying upon his spear. Then the chariots and horsemen drew near to him.
El topuk, “Nga tuh muta Fineol Gilboa, ac nga liye ke Saul el fungyang nu fin osra natul ah, na chariot ac mwet kasrusr fin horse lun mwet lokoalok ah apkuranyang nu yorol.
7 And turning behind his back and seeing me, he called to me. And when I had responded, “I am here,”
Na el forma twe liyeyuyak, ac el pangonyu. Na nga fahk, ‘Mea?’
8 he said to me, “Who are you?” And I said to him, “I am an Amalekite.”
Na el siyuk lah su nga uh, na nga fahk lah nga mwet Amalek.
9 And he said to me: “Stand over me, and kill me. For anguish has taken hold of me, and still my whole life is in me.”
Na el fahk, ‘Fahsru ac uniyuwi! Nga arulana kineta, ac nga apkuran in misa.’
10 And standing over him, I killed him. For I knew that he was not able to live after the fall. And I took the diadem that was on his head, and the bracelet from his arm, and I have brought them here to you, my lord.”
Ouinge nga kalukyang nu yorol ac unilya, mweyen nga etu lah el ac na misa na el fin putatyang nu fac. Na nga eisla tefuro lal liki sifal, ac mwe naweyuk ke paol, pa nga use nu sum inge.”
11 Then David, taking hold of his garments, tore them, with all the men who were with him.
David el arulana asor ac seya nuknuk lal, ac mwet lal nukewa oru oapana.
12 And they mourned, and wept, and fasted until evening, over Saul and over his son Jonathan, and over the people of the Lord and over the house of Israel, because they had fallen by the sword.
Elos asor ac tung ac eoksra nwe ke ekela kacl Saul ac Jonathan, oayapa ke Israel, mwet lun LEUM GOD, mweyen arulana pukanten mwet anwuki ke mweun ah.
13 And David said to the youth who had reported it to him, “Where are you from?” And he responded, “I am the son of a man who is a new arrival from the Amalekites.”
Na David el siyuk sin mwet fusr se su use pweng se inge nu sel, “Kom mwet ya?” El topuk, “Nga mwet Amalek, tusruktu nga muta facl sum uh.”
14 And David said to him, “Why were you not afraid to put forth your hand, so that you would kill the Christ of the Lord?”
David el siyuk sel, “Kom ku tia sangeng in uniya tokosra se su sulosolla sin LEUM GOD?”
15 And calling one of his servants, David said, “Draw near and rush against him” And he struck him, and he died.
Na David el pangonma sie mwet lal ac fahk, “Unilya!” Ac mwet sac sringilya mwet Amalek sac, ac el misa.
16 And David said to him: “Your blood is upon your own head. For your own mouth has spoken against you, saying: ‘I have killed the Christ of the Lord.’”
Ac David el fahk nu sin mwet Amalek sac, “Misa lom ma sum sifacna. Kom sifacna sot mwatum ke kom fahkak lah pwaye kom uniya sie su LEUM GOD El sulela in tokosra.”
17 Then David mourned a lamentation over Saul and over his son Jonathan, in this way.
David el onkakin on in eoksra se inge kacl Saul ac Jonathan,
18 (And he instructed that they should teach the sons of Judah the bow, just as it is written in the Book of the Just.) And he said: “Consider, O Israel, on behalf of those who are dead, wounded upon your heights:
ac el sapkin in lutiyuk nu sin mwet Judah. (Simla tari in [Book in Jashar].)
19 The illustrious of Israel have been killed upon your mountains. How could the valiant have fallen?
“Fin tohktok lun Israel, mwet kol lasr misa we! Mwet mweun pulaiklana lasr elos ikori we!
20 Do not choose to announce it in Gath, and do not announce it in the crossroads of Ashkelon. Otherwise, the daughters of the Philistines may rejoice; otherwise, the daughters of the uncircumcised may exult.
Nimet fahkak nu in acn Gath, Ku ke inkanek in Ashkelon. Nimet oru tuh mutan Philistia in pwar; Nimet lela tuh an nutin mwet pegan in enganak.
21 O mountains of Gilboa, let neither dew, nor rain fall over you, and may these not be the fields of the first-fruits. For in that place, the shield of the valiant was cast away, the shield of Saul, as if he had not been anointed with oil.
“Lela in wangin af ku aunfong putat nu fin tohktok Gilboa; Lela in wangin fokin ima we pacl nukewa! Mwe mwekin se lah mwe loang lun mwet pulaik lasr in oan we; Mwe loang lal Saul tia sifil mosrweyuk.
22 From the blood of the slain, from the fat of the strong, the arrow of Jonathan never turned back, and the sword of Saul did not return empty.
Pisr natul Jonathan uniya mwet lokoalok puspis, Osra natul Saul tia etu pakoten — Sringilya mwet fokoko, ac uniya mwet lokoalok.
23 Saul and Jonathan, worthy to be loved, and stately in their life: even in death they were not divided. They were swifter than eagles, stronger than lions.
“Saul ac Jonathan, wolana ac saok; Tukeni ke moul, tukeni ke misa; Mui liki eagle, fokoko liki lion.
24 O daughters of Israel, weep over Saul, who clothed you with scarlet finery, who offered ornaments of gold for your adornment.
“Mutan Israel, kowos in mwemelil kacl Saul! El nukumkowosyang ke nuknuk srusra yohk molo, Ac nawekowos ke mwe yun ac gold.
25 How could the valiant have fallen in battle? How could Jonathan have been slain on the heights?
“Mwet mweun pulaik ikori tari, Anwuki elos ke mweun. Jonathan el misa oan fin tohktok uh.
26 I grieve over you, my brother Jonathan: exceedingly stately, and worthy to be loved above the love of women. As a mother loves her only son, so also did I love you.
“Nga arulana asor keim, Jonathan, ma lik; Kom tuh arulana saok sik! Fuka lupan woiyen lungse lom nu sik, Wo liki lungse lun sie mutan.
27 How could the robust have fallen, and the weapons of war have perished?”
“Mwet mweun pulaik ikori tari, Mwe mweun natulos sisila ac wanginla sripa.”
