2 Samuel 4
1 When Ishbosheth, son of Saul, heard that Abner had died in Hebron, he was very discouraged, and everyone in Israel was shocked.
Ie jinanji’ i ana’ i Saole e Kebroney te nivilasy t’i Abnere, le nigebañe ty fità’e vaho ninevenevetse iaby o ana’ Israeleo.
2 Ishbosheth had two commanders of his raiding bands, brothers by the name of Baanah and Rechab. They were the sons of Rimmon of the tribe of Benjamin from the town of Beeroth. Beeroth is considered part of the territory of Benjamin,
Ondaty roe ty nimpifehem-pirimboñañe amy ana’ i Saoley; ty raike natao Baanà, naho ty tahina’ ty raike: Rekabe, sambe ana’ i Rimone nte Beerote, ana’ i Beniamine; amy te nivolilieñe amy Beniamine t’i Beerote;
3 because the people who had lived in Beeroth before ran away to Gittaim and lived there as foreigners right up to the present.
aa le nibioñe mb’e Gitaime mb’eo o nte-Beeroteo, vaho nañialo ho renetane añe pake henaneo.
4 Jonathan, son of Saul, had a son lame in both feet. He was five years old when the news about the deaths of Saul and Jonathan had come from Jezreel. His nurse had picked him up and ran away, but as she rushed to get away, he fell and became lame. His name was Mephibosheth.
Nanañ’ anadahy kepek’ am-pandia t’Ionatane ana’ i Saole, ie lime taoñe te pok’eo i talily i Saole naho Ionatane e Iezreeley le rinambe’ i mpiatrak’ azey naho nandrifitse ty lay; aa ie nitaentaeñe hipitsike le nidorasitse nahakepeke i natao Mefibosètey.
5 Rechab and Baanah, sons of Rimmon from Beeroth, went to Ishbosheth's house, arriving in the heat of the day as the king was taking his midday rest.
Niheo mb’eo i ana’ i Rimone nte-Beerote rey, i Rekabe naho i Baanà, le nivotrak’ añ’ anjomba’ Isbosete an-tsingilingilien’ andro, ie nandre am-pandreañe ao.
6 The woman doorkeeper had been cleaning wheat, but she had grown tired and fallen asleep, so Rechab and Baanah were able to slip inside.
Nimoak’ am-po i anjombay iereo nanao ho mpampibalike vare-bolè, le tinombo’ iareo ambane’ ty pa’e faha-lime ao; vaho nivoratsake t’i Rekabe naho i Baanà rahalahi’ey.
7 They had gone into the house while Ishbosheth was asleep on his bed in his bedroom. After stabbing and killing him, they cut off his head which they took with them, and they traveled all night by the Jordan Valley road.
Ie nimoak’ añ’ anjomba ao iereo, ie nandre am-pandrea’e an-trañom-pandrea’e ao, le tinombo’ iareo, vinono, naho kinitsi’ iereo ty añambone’e vaho nikatsakatsak’ amy haleñey niranga i montoñey.
8 They took the head of Ishbosheth to David in Hebron. They told the king, “Here is the head of Ishbosheth, son of Saul, your enemy who tried to kill you. Today the Lord has taken revenge on Saul and his family for my lord the king.”
Nendese’ iereo mb’amy Davide e Kebrone mb’eo ty añambone’ Isbosete le nanao ty hoe amy mpanjakay, Ingo ty añambone’ Isbosete ana’ i Saole rafelahi’oy, i nipay ty fiai’oy, fa nondroha’ Iehovà ty kabò’ i talèko mpanjakay amy Saole naho amy tiri’ey anindroany.
9 But David answered Rechab and his brother Baanah, sons of Rimmon from Beeroth, “As the Lord lives, who has saved me from all my troubles,
Aa hoe ty natoi’ i Davide amy Rakabe naho i Baanà rahalahi’e, ana’ i Rimone nte-Beerote: Kanao veloñe t’Iehovà nijebañe ty fiaiko amy ze atao rafelahy iaby,
10 when someone told me, ‘Look, Saul is dead’ and he thought he was bringing me good news, I grabbed him and had him put him to death at Ziklag. That was what he got for bringing me his news!
naho nitalily amako ty nanao ty hoe: Inao, vilasy t’i Saole. Ie natao’e te nanday talily soa. Fe rinambeko vaho zinevoko e Tsiklage ao ho tambe’ i talili’ey.
11 Even more so then, when evil men kill a good man in his own house, and in his own bed, shouldn't I demand you pay for his life with your own lives, and exterminate you!”
Tsy antsake hao ondaty lo-tsereke namono indaty marentane añ’anjomba’e am-pandrea’ey? Tsy hampañavahako am-pità’ areo hao ty lio’e hanintak’ anahareo an-tane atoy?
12 David gave the order to his men, and they killed Rechab and Baanah. They chopped off their hands and feet, and hung their bodies by the pool in Hebron. Then they took Ishbosheth's head and buried it in Abner's grave in Hebron.
Aa le linili’ i Davide o gaon-dahi’eo, le vinono’ iereo naho kinitsike o fitañe naho fandia’ iareoo naho naradorado ambone’ i antara’ i Kebroney. Nitakone’ iereo ty añambone’ Isbosete vaho nalenteke an-kibori’ i Abnere e Kebrone ao.
