2 Samuel 14
1 Joab, son of Zeruiah, knew that the king kept on thinking about Absalom.
Youa: be da Da: ibidi da A: basalomeha fofagi gala, amo dawa: i.
2 So Joab sent a messenger to Tekoa to bring back a wise woman who lived there. He told her, “Pretend to be a mourner. Put on clothes for mourning, and don't use any scented oils. Be like a woman who has been in mourning for the dead a long time.
Amaiba: le, e da bagade dawa: su uda Degoua moilaia esalu, amo ema misa: ne sia: si. Amo uda da ema doaga: loba, e da udama amane sia: i, “Di ogogole dinanuyale dawa: ma: ne agoane hamoma. Dawa: digima: ne abula eboboi ga: ma. Dia dialuma hinabo mae fesega: ma! Di da udaga gebewane heawini dinanebe defele hamoma!
3 Then go to the king and tell him this.” Joab told her what to say.
Amasea, hina bagade ema asili, na dima adomu amo ema sia: ma.” Amalalu, Youa: be da ema amo sia: sia: ma: ne olelei.
4 When the woman from Tekoa went to see the king, she bowed facedown to the ground in respect, and said, “Please help me, Your Majesty!”
Amo uda da hina bagadema asili, ema nodoma: ne osobaga beguduli, amane sia: i, “Hina noga: idafa! Dia na fidima!”
5 “What's the matter?” the king asked her. “Sadly I'm a widow. My husband is dead,” she replied.
Da: ibidi da ema amane sia: i, “Di adilamusa: la: ?” Uda da bu adole i, “Hina! Na da hame gagui didalo. Nagoa da bogoi dagoi.
6 “Your Majesty, I had two sons. They had a fight outside, and there was nobody there to stop them. One of them hit the other, and killed him.
Hina! Na da nagofe aduna galu. Eso afaega, ela da bugili nasu sogega sia: ga gegei. Ela afafama: ne gaga: mu dunu afae hame ba: i. Amola nagofe afae da eno amo ea fane legei dagoi.
7 Now the whole family is against me. They're saying, ‘Hand over your son who killed his brother so we can put him to death for murdering his brother. That way he won't inherit anything either!’ By doing this they would snuff out the last ember of hope I have to carry on my husband's name and family in the world.”
Amola wali, hina, na sosogo huluane da nama mae asigili, nagofe eno amo ilia fuga: musa: , ilima ima: ne sia: sa. Bai e da ea hobe medole legei, ilia sia: sa. Ilia da amane hamosea, na da mano hamedafa esalebe ba: mu. Amai galea, nama dafawane hamoma: beyale dawa: lusu huluane da fisi dagoi ba: mu. Amola, nagoa ea dio da osobo bagadega hame adolalumu.”
8 “Go on home,” the king told the woman, “and I myself will make sure your case is dealt with for you.”
Hina bagade da bu adole i, “Di diasuga buhagima. Na da amo liligi hahamomu.”
9 “Thank you, Your Majesty,” said the woman. “I and my family will take the blame, and may Your Majesty and your family be held to be innocent.”
Uda da amane sia: i, “Hina noga: i! Dia adi hamosea, na sosogo amola na da amo ninia hamoi fawane sia: mu. Di amola hina bagade ea sosogo amola da giadofale hamedafa hamoi ba: mu.”
10 “If anyone complains to you about it, bring him here to me, and he won't bother you again!” the king told her.
Hina bagade da bu adole i, “Nowa dunu da dima magagisia, amo nama oule misa! Amasea, amo dunu da dima bu se nabasu hamedafa imunu.”
11 “Please, Your Majesty,” the woman continued, “swear by the Lord your God that you will stop the person wanting to avenge the murder from making it worse by killing my son!” “As the Lord lives,” he promised, “not a single hair from your son's head will fall to the ground.”
Uda da amane sia: i, “Hina noga: idafa! Na sosogo fi dunu afae amo da nagofe ea bogoi dabe imunusa: ilegei. E da nagofe eno fane legele amola musa: wadela: i hou da baligi dagoi ba: sa: besa: le, di da dia Hina Godema sia: ne gadoma.” Da: ibidi da bu adole i, “Na da Fifi Ahoanusu Hina Gode Ea Dioba: le amane ilegesa. Diagofe da se hamedafa nabimu.”
12 “Could I please ask for one other thing, Your Majesty?” the woman asked. “Go ahead,” he replied.
Uda da amane sia: i, “Hina noga: idafa! Na da eno afae fawane sia: mu da defeala: ?” E bu adole i, “Defea! Sia: ma!”
13 “So why have you schemed in a similar way against the people of God?” the woman asked. “Since Your Majesty just decided my case by what you said, haven't you convicted yourself because you refuse to bring back the son you banished?
Uda da Da: ibidima amane sia: i, “Dia da abuliba: le Gode Ea fi dunuma wadela: le hamosala: ? Dia da abuliba: le dia mano mugululi asi amo ea buhagimu logo hame doasibala: ? Di da dia waha sia: i amoga dia hou fofada: nanu, disu da giadofai dagoi sia: sa.
14 Yes, we all have to die. We're like water spilled on the ground that can't be collected again. But that's not what God does. Instead he works out ways for anyone who is banished to come back home to him.
Ninia huluanedafa da bogosu ba: mu. Ninia da hano osoboga adasa: i agoane, bu lamu da hamedei. Gode Hi amolawane da bogoi dunu bu esaloma: ne hame hamosa. Be di, hina bagade, da dunu mugululi asi, amo ea buhagimu logo doasimusa: dawa:
15 That's why I've come to explain this to Your Majesty, because someone has frightened me. So I thought to myself, I will go and speak to the king. Perhaps he will grant my request.
Hina noga: idafa! Na da dima sia: na misi, amo ea bai da na sosogo ilia da nama magagi. Amaiba: le, na da nisu amoma na dima asili sia: ma: ne dawa: i. Di da na adole ba: su hamoma: ne, na da dawa: i galu.
16 Perhaps the king will listen and save me from the man who would cut off both me and my son from God's chosen people.
Na da amane dawa: i, `Hina bagade da na sia: nabimu. Amola e da dunu amo da nagofe fuga: musa: amola na sosogodafa soge amo Gode da Ea fi ilima i, amoga fadegamusa: dawa: lala, hina bagade da amo dunuma nagofe mae fuga: ma: ne gemu,’ na agoane dawa: i.
17 I thought: May what Your Majesty says bring me peace, for Your Majesty is able to tell the difference between good and evil, just like an angel of God. May the Lord your God be with you!”
Na da nisu sia: i, `Dafawane, hina noga: idafa! Dia dafawane ilegesu da na gaga: mu.’ Bai hina bagade da Gode Ea a: igele agoane amola e da hou ida: iwane amola wadela: i hou amo afafamusa: dawa: Dia Hina Gode da ali esalumu da defea!”
18 “Please don't refuse to answer the question I'm about to ask,” the king said to the woman. “Please ask your question, Your Majesty,” she replied.
Hina bagade da bu adole i, “Na da dima adole ba: mu gala. Sia: huluanedafa molole olelema!” Uda da amane sia: i, “Hina noga: idafa! Dia hanaiga nama adole ba: ma!”
19 “Is all this Joab's doing?” the king asked. The woman replied, “As you live, Your Majesty, no one can hide anything from you. Yes, it was Joab, your officer, who ordered me to do this—he told me exactly what to say.
Da: ibidi da ema amane adole ba: i. “Di da Youa: be ea sia: beba: le, amo hou hamobela: ?” E bu adole i, “Hina noga: idafa! Na da sema liligi huluane amoba: le sia: sa. Na da dima molole adole imunu logo fawane ba: sa. Dafawane! Dia eagene ouligisu dunu Youa: be, hi da na dima agoane sia: ma: ne sia: i.
20 He did so to show the other side of the situation, but Your Majesty is as wise as an angel of God, and you know everything that happens in this country.”
Be e da hou moloma: ne agoane hamoi. Hina noga: idafa! Di da Gode Ea a: igele dunu defele asigi dawa: su bagade gala. Di da liligi hamonanebe huluane dawa:”
21 The king said to Joab, “Fine, I'll do it. Go and bring young Absalom back.”
Amogalu fa: no, hina bagade da Youa: bema amane sia: i, “Na da dia hanai hamoma: ne ilegei dagoi. Dia asili, goi ayeligi A: basalome lalalu, guiguda: oule misa!”
22 Joab bowed down with his face to the ground in respect, and blessed the king. “Today,” said Joab, “I, your servant, know that you approve of me, Your Majesty, because you have granted my request.”
Youa: be da Da: ibidima nodoma: ne, ea midadi osoba gala: la sa: ili, amane sia: i, “Hina noga: idafa! Hina Gode da dima hahawane dogolegele hamomu da defea! Di da na adole ba: i defele hamomuba: le, di da nama hahawane gala, amo na dawa:”
23 Joab went to Geshur, and brought Absalom back to Jerusalem.
Amalalu, e da wa: legadole, Gesie sogega asili, A:basalome amo Yelusaleme moilai bai bagadega bu oule misi.
24 But the king gave this order, “He may return to his home, but he's not to come and see me.” So Absalom returned to his own home, but he didn't go and see the king.
Be hina bagade da A: basalome e hina bagade diasu amoga mae golama: ne sia: i. Da: ibidi da amane sia: i, “Na da ea odagi hamedafa ba: mu galebe.” Amaiba: le, A:basalome da hi diasua esalu. E da hina bagade hame ba: la asi.
25 Absalom was admired as the most handsome man in the whole of Israel. He didn't have a single blemish from head to toe.
A: basalome ea da: i da noga: iwane ba: su. Isala: ili soge ganodini, dunu eno e agoai hame ba: i. Ea dialuma gadonini sa: ili, emoa guduli da bobonomai fawane ba: su.
26 He cut his hair every year because it got so heavy—it weighed two hundred royal shekels.
Ea dialuma hinabo da gesoma agoane amola e da ode huluane amoga afaega ea dialuma hinabo dadamusu. Bai ea hinabo da sedadedafa amola dioi bagade ba: su. Amo hinabo ea dioi defei, da ilia hina bagade ea ilegei defele ba: su. Defei da gilougala: me aduna agoane ba: su.
27 He had three sons, and a daughter named Tamar—a very beautiful woman.
A: basalome da egefelali udiana amola idiwi afae galu. Ea idiwi ea dio amo da Da: ima. E da isisima: goi ba: su uda esalu.
28 Absalom lived in Jerusalem for two years but was not permitted to see the king.
A: basalome da ode adunaga, hina bagade mae ba: le, Yelusaleme moilai bai bagade ganodini esalu.
29 Absalom called Joab to arrange for him to see the king, for Joab, to send him to the king, but Joab refused to come. Absalom called Joab again, but Joab still wouldn't come.
Amalalu, A:basalome da Youa: be ema misa: ne sia: i. E da Youa: be amo A: basalome ea hou olelema: ne, hina bagadema asunasimusa: dawa: i galu. Be Youa: be da ema hame misi. A: basalome da bu Youa: be ema misa: ne sia: i, be Youa: be da bu hame misunu sia: i.
30 So Absalom told his servants, “Look, Joab's field is next to mine, and he has barley growing there. Go and set it on fire!” Absalom's servants went and set the field on fire.
Amaiba: le, A:basalome da ea hawa: hamosu dunu ilima amane sia: i, “Ba: ma! Youa: be ea bugili nasu soge da na soge bega: gala. Amo ganodini da `bali’ bugi dialebe. Dilia amoga asili laluga ulugagisima!” Amaiba: le, ilia da asili bugili nasu soge laluga ulugagisi.
31 Joab went to Absalom's house and asked “Why did your servants set my field on fire?”
Youa: be da A: basalome ea diasuga asili, ougili amane adole ba: i, “Dia hawa: hamosu dunu da abuliba: le na bugili nasu soge ulugagibala: ?”
32 “Look here,” said Absalom, “I sent for you, saying, ‘Come here. I want you to go to the king and ask: Why did I bother coming back from Geshur? It would have been better for me to stay there.’ So go and arrange for me to see the king, and if I'm guilty of anything, he can kill me.”
A: basalome da bu adole i, “Bai na da di nama misa: ne sia: i. Be di da hame misi. Na da di hina bagade ema asunasili, ema na sia: amane adole ba: ma: ne dawa: i, `Na da abuliba: le Gesie soge fisili, guiguda: misibala: ? Na amogawi esalumu da defea galu.” Amola A: basalome da eno amane sia: i, “Dia da na amo hina bagade ba: ma: ne, logo hamoma. Be e da na wadela: i hamosu dunu agoai ba: sea, e da na fane legema: ne sia: mu da defea.”
33 So Joab went and told the king what Absalom had said. Then David summoned Absalom, who came and bowed down with his face to the ground before him in respect. Then the king kissed Absalom.
Amaiba: le, Youa: be da hina bagade Da: ibidima asili, A:basalome ea sia: i liligi olelei. Hina bagade e da A: basalome ema misa: ne sia: i. A: basalome da ema asili, ea midadi osoba begudui. Hina bagade da ema hahawane yosia: le, nonogoi.
