< 2 Samuel 17 >
1 Moreouer Ahithophel said to Absalom, Let me chuse out now twelue thousand men, and I will vp and follow after Dauid this night,
Tia paht toko, Ahithophel el fahk nu sel Absalom, “Lela ngan sulela singoul luo tausin mwet, na kut ac som ukwal David ofong.
2 And I will come vpon him: for he is wearie, and weake handed: so I will feare him, and all the people that are with him, shall flee, and I will smite the King onely,
Nga ac fah mweunel ke pacl el totola ac munasla nunkal. El ac fah sangeng, ac mwet lal nukewa ac fah kaingla. Tokosra mukena pa nga ac uniya,
3 And I will bring againe all the people vnto thee, and when all shall returne, (the man whome thou seekest being slaine) all the people shalbe in peace.
na nga ac folokonma mwet lal nukewa nu yurum, oana ke sie mutan pisrla el foloko nu yurin mukul tumal. Moul lun mwet sefanna pa kom suk an, na mwet saya nukewa fah moul in misla.”
4 And the saying pleased Absalom well, and all the Elders of Israel.
Kas in kasru inge wo sel Absalom ac sin mwet kol nukewa lun mwet Israel.
5 Then said Absalom, Call now Hushai the Archite also, and let vs heare likewise what he sayth.
Na Absalom el fahk, “Pangnolma Hushai ac lela kut in lohng lah mea el ac fahk uh.”
6 So when Hushai came to Absalom, Absalom spake vnto him, saying, Ahithophel hath spoken thus: shall we doe after his saying, or no? tell thou.
Ke Hushai el tuku, Absalom el fahk nu sel, “Pa inge kas in kasru lal Ahithophel nu sesr uh. Fuka, kut ac wi na? Fin tia, kom fahk lah mea kut ac oru.”
7 Hushai then answered vnto Absalom, The counsel that Ahithophel hath giuen, is not good at this time.
Na Hushai el fahk, “Kas in kasru lal Ahithophel nu sum ke pacl se inge uh tiana wo.
8 For, said Hushai, thou knowest thy father, and his men, that they be strong men, and are chafed in minde as a beare robbed of her whelps in the fielde: also thy father is a valiant warrier, and will not lodge with the people.
Kom etu na lah David, papa tomom, ac mwet lal elos arulana fokoko ke mweun, ac sulallal lalos oana sulallal lun soko bear mutan ma pusrla ma natul lukel. Papa tomom el mwet na fas ke mweun, ac el tia wi muta yurin mwet lal ah ke fong uh.
9 Behold, he is hid now in some caue, or in some place: and though some of them be ouerthrowen at the first, yet the people shall heare, and say, The people that follow Absalom, be ouerthrowen.
Inge sahp el ana wikwik oasr in luf se, ku kutu pacna acn saya. Ke pacl se na David el ac lain mwet lom an, kutena mwet fin lohng kac elos ac fahk mu mwet lom an kuf tari.
10 Then he also that is valiant whose heart is as the heart of a lion, shall shrinke and faint: for all Israel knoweth, that thy father is valiant, and they which be with him, stout men.
Na finne mwet su arulana pulaik ac nikin sangeng oana lion uh, elos ac sangeng mweyen mwet Israel nukewa etu na lah papa tomom el sie mwet mweun pwengpeng, ac mwet lal ah arulana fokoko ke mweun.
11 Therefore my counsell is, that all Israel be gathered vnto thee, from Dan euen to Beer-sheba as the sand of the sea in nomber, and that thou goe to battell in thine owne person.
Kas in kasru luk nu sum uh pa kom in orani mwet Israel nukewa, mutawauk na oe epang oatula nwe eir, ac pisalos in oana puk weacn uh, na kom in sifacna kololos nu ke mweun uh.
12 So shall we come vpon him in some place, where we shall finde him, and we will vpon him as the dewe falleth on the ground: and of all the men that are with him, wee will not leaue him one.
Kut ac konalak David yen el oasr we, ac mweunel meet liki el etu lah mea sikyak. Na el ac mwet lal nukewa ac fah misa, wangin sie ac fah moul.
13 Moreouer if he be gotten into a citie, then shall all the men of Israel bring ropes to that citie, and we will draw it into the riuer, vntill there be not one small stone founde there.
El fin kaingyak nu in sie siti, na mwet lasr uh ac use sucl in amakinya siti sac nu ten nu infahlfal uh. Wangin sie eot ac fah oan fin tohktok we uh.”
14 Then Absalom and all the men of Israel sayde, The counsel of Hushai the Archite is better, then the counsell of Ahithophel: for the Lord had determined to destroy the good counsell of Ahithophel, that the Lord might bring euill vpon Absalom.
Absalom ac mwet Israel nukewa elos fahk, “Kas in kasru lal Hushai wo liki kas lal Ahithophel.” LEUM GOD El tuh wotela mu mwet uh in tia eis kas in kasru wo lal Ahithophel, pwanang ongoiya ac tuku nu facl Absalom.
15 Then said Hushai vnto Zadok and to Abiathar the Priests, Of this and that maner did Ahithophel and the Elders of Israel counsell Absalom: and thus and thus haue I counseled.
Na Hushai el fahkang nu sel mwet tol Zadok ac Abiathar ke kas in kasru ma el sang nu sel Absalom ac mwet kol lun mwet Israel, oayapa ke kas in kasru lal Ahithophel nu selos.
16 Now therefore sende quickely, and shewe Dauid, saying, Tarie not this night in the fieldes of the wildernesse, but rather get thee ouer, lest the King be deuoured and all the people that are with him.
Na el sifilpa fahk, “Sulaklak, sapla nwe yorol David elan tia motulla ke acn in tupalla infacl ah yen mwesis, a elos in tupalla na Infacl Jordan ofong, tuh el ac mwet lal in tia tukeni sruoh ac anwuki.”
17 Now Ionathan and Ahimaaz abode by En-rogel: (for they might not be seene to come into the citie) and a maid went, and tolde them, and they went and shewed King Dauid.
Jonathan wen natul Abiathar, ac Ahimaaz wen natul Zadok, eltal muta soano ke unon in kof se pangpang Enrogel su oan likin pot in Jerusalem, mweyen eltal tia lungse mwet uh in liyaltal eltal fin utyak nu in siti uh. Oasr sie tulik mutan kulansap su muta fahsr nu yoroltal ac fahkang nu seltal ma orek uh, na eltal ac som fahk nu sel Tokosra David.
18 Neuerthelesse a yong man sawe them, and tolde it to Absalom. therefore they both departed quickely, and came to a mans house in Bahurim, who had a well in his court, into the which they went downe.
Sie len ah tulik mukul se liyaltalak ac som fahk nu sel Absalom. Na eltal kaingla ac wikla ke lohm sin sie mukul Bahurim. Oasr lufin kof se apkuran nu lohm sel ah, na eltal tili nu loac.
19 And the wife tooke and spred a couering ouer the welles mouth, and spred ground corne thereon, that the thing should not be knowen.
Mutan kien mukul sac usla mwe afyuf se sang afinya luf sac, na el sisalik fita in wheat nu fac in mau tia akilenyuk lah oasr ma loac.
20 And when Absaloms seruants came to the wife into the house, they said, Where is Ahimaaz and Ionathan? And the woman answered them, They be gone ouer the brooke of water. And when they had sought them, and could not finde them, they returned to Ierusalem.
Mwet pwapa lal Absalom elos tuku nu yurin mutan sac ac fahk, “El aya Ahimaaz ac Jonathan?” Ac mutan sac topuk, “Eltal srooht infacl an wot.” Mwet uh sokoltal tuh tia ku in konaltalak, na elos folokla nu Jerusalem.
21 And assoone as they were departed, the other came out of the well, and went and tolde King Dauid, and sayde vnto him, Vp, and get you quickely ouer the water: for such counsell hath Ahithophel giuen against you.
Tukun mwet ah folokla, Ahimaaz ac Jonathan fanyak liki luf sac, ac som fahkak nu sel Tokosra David ke ma Ahithophel el akoo in oru lainul David. Eltal fahk, “Sulaklak tupalla infacl ah.”
22 Then Dauid arose, and all the people that were with him, and they went ouer Iorden vntil the dawning of the day, so that there lacked not one of them, that was not come ouer Iorden.
Ke ma inge David ac mwet lal mutawauk in srola liki Infacl Jordan, ac ke lenelik elos nukewa tupalla tari.
23 Nowe when Ahithophel sawe that his counsell was not followed, he sadled his asse, and arose, and he went home vnto his citie, and put his houshold in order, and hanged him selfe, and dyed, and was buryed in his fathers graue.
Ke Ahithophel el liye lah mwet uh elos tiana oru oana kas in kasru lal nu selos, na el filiya mwe muta fin donkey natul, ac folokla nu in acn sel. Tukun el oakiya ma lal nukewa in wo, na el sifacna loksakla. El misa ac pukpuki ke kulyuk lun sou lal ah.
24 Then Dauid came to Mahanaim. And Absalom passed ouer Iorden, he, and all the men of Israel with him.
Ke pacl se Absalom ac mwet lal ah tupalla Infacl Jordan, David el sun tari acn Mahanaim. (
25 And Absalom made Amasa captaine of the hoste in the stead of Ioab: which Amasa was a mans sonne named Ithra an Israelite, that went in to Abigail the daughter of Nahash, sister to Zeruiah Ioabs mother.
Absalom el eisalang Amasa elan captain lun un mwet mweun, aolul Joab. Amasa el wen natul Jether mwet Ishmael, ac nina kial pa Abigail acn natul Nahash, ac tamtael lal Zeruiah, nina kial Joab.)
26 So Israel and Absalom pitched in the land of Gilead.
Absalom ac mwet lal elos tulokinya lohm nuknuk selos in acn Gilead.
27 And when Dauid was come to Mahanaim, Shobi the sonne of Nahash out of Rabbah of the children of Ammon, and Machir the sonne of Ammiel out of Lo-debar, and Barzelai the Gileadite out of Rogel
Pacl se David el sun acn Mahanaim, mwet tolu inge tuku sonol: Shobi wen natul Nahash, sie mwet in siti Rabbah in acn Ammon; ac Machir wen natul Ammiel, sie mwet Lodebar; ac Barzillai, sie mwet Rogelim in acn Gilead.
28 Brought beds, and basens, and earthen vessels, and wheat, and barley, and floure, and parched corne, and beanes, and lentiles, and parched corne.
Eltal use mwe oan, pesin, ahlu orek ke kle, oayapa mwe mongo inge nal David ac mwet lal: wheat, barley, flao, fita manman, bean, pea,
29 And they brought hony, and butter, and sheepe, and cheese of kine for Dauid and for the people that were with him, to eate: for they said, The people is hungry, and wearie, and thirstie in the wildernesse.
honey, cheese, cream, ac kutu sheep. Eltal etu lah David ac mwet lal ah masrinsral ac malu ac totola yen mwesis.
