2 Samuel 1
1 Now it came to pass, after Saul was dead, that David returned from the slaughter of the Amalecites, and abode two days in Siceleg.
Ary nony maty Saoly, ary niverina avy namono ny Amalekita Davida, dia nitoetra indroa andro tao Ziklaga izy.
2 And on the third day, there appeared a man who came out of Saul’s camp, with his garments rent, and dust strewed on his head: and when he came to David, he fell upon his face, and adored.
Ary tamin’ ny andro fahatelo, indro, nisy lehilahy iray tonga avy tany amin’ ny miaramilan’ i Saoly, triatra ny akanjony sady nihosin-tany ny lohany; ary rehefa tonga teo amin’ i Davida izy, dia niankohoka tamin’ ny tany ka nitsaoka.
3 And David said to him: From whence comest thou? And he said to him: I am fled out of the camp of Israel.
Ary hoy Davida taminy: Avy taiza moa ianao? Dia hoy izy taminy: Afaka nandositra avy tany amin’ ny tobin’ ny Isiraely aho.
4 And David said unto him: What is the matter that is come to pass? tell me. He said: The people are fled from the battle, and many of the people are fallen and dead: moreover Saul and Jonathan his son are slain.
Ary hoy Davida taminy: Nanao ahoana izay tany? Masìna ianao, ambarao amiko. Dia hoy izy: Ny olona nandositra tamin’ ny ady, ary be koa ny miampatrampatra sy maty, ary maty koa Saoly sy Jonatana zanany.
5 And David said to the young man that told him: How knowest thou that Saul and Jonathan his son, are dead?
Ary hoy Davida tamin’ ilay zatovo niteny taminy: Ahoana no nahafantaranao fa maty Saoly sy Jonatana zanany.
6 And the young man that told him, said: I came by chance upon mount Gelboe, and Saul leaned upon his spear: and the chariots and horsemen drew nigh unto him,
Dia nanambara taminy ilay zatovo nanao hoe: Sendra tao an-tendrombohitra Gilboa aho, ary, indro, Saoly nitehina tamin’ ny lefony; ary, indreo, ny kalesy sy ny mpitaingin-tsoavaly nanenjika azy mafy.
7 And looking behind him, and seeing me, he called me. And I answered, Here am I.
Dia niherika izy ka nahita ahy; ary niantso ahy izy, ka hoy izaho: Inty aho.
8 And he said to me: Who art thou? And I said to him: I am an Amalecite.
Ary hoy izy tamiko: Iza moa ianao? Dia hoy izaho taminy: Amalekita aho.
9 And he said to me: Stand over me, and kill me: for anguish is come upon me, and as yet my whole life is in me.
Ary hoy indray izy tamiko: Masìna ianao, hatony kely aho, ka vonoy, fa marary mivonkina ozatra aho, fa mbola ato anatiko ihany ny aiko.
10 So standing over him, I killed him: for I knew that he could not live after the fall: and I took the diadem that was on his head, and the bracelet that was on his arm and have brought them hither to thee, my lord.
Dia nanatona azy aho ka namono azy, satria fantatro fa tsy ho velona izy, rehefa resy, ka dia nalaiko ny satro-boninahiny teo an-dohany sy ny fehin-tanana teo amin’ ny sandriny, ka nentiko etỳ amin’ ny tompoko izany.
11 Then David took hold of his garments and rent them, and likewise all the men that were with him.
Dia noraisin’ i Davida ny fitafiany ka notriariny: ary dia mba nanao toy izany koa ny olona rehetra teo aminy.
12 And they mourned, and wept, and fasted until evening for Saul, and for Jonathan his son, and for the people of the Lord, and for the house of Israel, because they were fallen by the sword.
Ary nisaona sy nitomany sy nifady hanina ambara-paharivan’ ny andro izy noho ny amin’ i Saoly sy Jonatana zanany sy ny olon’ i Jehovah ary ny taranak’ Isiraely, satria lavon-tsabatra ireny.
13 And David said to the young man that told him: Whence art thou? He answered: I am the son of a stranger of Amalee.
Ary hoy Davida tamin’ ilay zatovo nanambara taminy: Avy aiza ianao? Ary hoy izy: Zanaky ny vahiny Amalekita aho.
14 David said to him: Why didst thou not fear to put out thy hand to kill the Lord’s anointed?
Dia hoy Davida taminy: Nahoana ianao no tsy natahotra haninjitra ny tananao hamono ny voahosotr’ i Jehovah?
15 And David calling one of his servants, said: Go near and fall upon him. And he struck him so that he died.
Dia niantso zatovo anankiray Davida ka nanao hoe: Hatony io, ka vonoy; dia nasiany izy ka maty.
16 And David said to him: Thy blood be upon thy own head: for thy own mouth hath spoken against thee, saying: I have slain the Lord’s anointed.
ary hoy Davida taminy: Aoka ny rànao ho eo amin’ ny lohanao, satria ny vavanao ihany no efa niampanga anao nanao hoe: Izaho no namono ny voahosotr’ i Jehovah.
17 And David made this kind of lamentation over Saul, and over Jonathan his son.
Ary Davida nisaona an’ i Saoly sy Jonatana zanany tamin’ izao hira fisaonana izao
18 (Also he commanded that they should teach the children of Juda the use of the bow, as it is written in the book of the just.) And he said: Consider, O Israel, for them that are dead, wounded on thy high places.
(ary nasainy nampianarina ny taranak’ i Joda ny hira atao hoe Tsipika; indro, voasoratra ao amin’ ny Bokin’ i Jasara izany):
19 The illustrious of Israel are slain upon thy mountains: how are the valiant fallen?
Ilay voninahitrao, ry Isiraely, no voalefona teo amin’ ny havoananao; Endrey! Lavo ny mahery!
20 Tell it not in Geth, publish it not in the streets of Ascalon: lest the daughters of the Philistines rejoice, lest the daughters of the uncircumcised triumph,
Aza ambaranareo any Gata izany, Aza torinareo ho fifaliana any an-dalamben’ i Askelona. Fandrao mifaly ny zanakavavin’ ny Filistina. Fandrao miravoravo ny zanakavavin’ ny tsy mifora.
21 Ye mountains of Gelboe, let neither dew, nor rain come upon you, neither be they fields of firstfruits: for there was cast away the shield of the valiant, the shield of Saul as though he had not been anointed with oil.
Hianareo tendrombohitra Gilboa, Aza misy ando aman’ orana intsony eny aminareo, na saha angalana fanatitra asandratra, satria tany no nandotoana ny ampingan’ ny mahery, Dia ny ampingan’ i Saoly, ka tsy nohosorana diloilo.
22 From the blood of the slain, from the fat of the valiant, the arrow of Jonathan never turned back, and the sword of Saul did not return empty.
Ny tsipìkan’ i Jonatana tsy nihemotra. Raha tsy nahazo ny ran’ ny maty sy ny tavin’ ny mahery; ary ny sabatr’ i Saoly tsy mba niverina foana.
23 Saul and Jonathan, lovely, and comely in their life, even in death they were not divided: they were swifter than eagles, stronger than lions.
Saoly sy Jonatana, izay tiana sady mahate-ho-tia fony fahavelony, dia tsy nosarahina na dia tamin’ ny nahafatesany aza; Faingana noho ny voromahery izy ary mahery noho ny liona.
24 Ye daughters of Israel, weep over Saul, who clothed you with scarlet in delights, who gave ornaments of gold for your attire.
Ry zanakavavin’ Isiraely, mitomania an’ i Saoly, fa nahafinaritra ny mampitafiany jaky anareo, sady nasiany firava-bolamena ny fitafianareo.
25 How are the valiant fallen in battle? Jonathan slain in the high places?
Endrey! lavo teo amin’ ny ady ny mahery voalefona teo amin’ ny havoananao Jonatana.
26 I grieve for thee, my brother Jonathan: exceeding beautiful, and amiable to me above the love of women. As the mother loveth her only son, so did I love thee.
Ory noho ny aminao aho, ry Jonatana rahalahiko; nahafinaritra ahy indrindra ianao; nahagaga ny fitiavanao ahy mihoatra noho ny fitiavan’ ny vehivavy.
27 How are the valiant fallen, and the weapons of war perished?
Endrey! lavo ny mahery, ary levona ny fiadiana!
