< 2 Samuel 20 >

1 Then there was come thither a wicked man (named Sheba the sonne of Bichri, a man of Iemini) and hee blew the trumpet, and saide, Wee haue no part in Dauid, neither haue we inheritance in the sonne of Ishai: euery man to his tents, O Israel.
To koro ne nitie ja-Benjamin machach ma nyinge Sheba wuod Bikri. Nogoyo turumbete kokok kowacho niya, “Waonge wat moro gi joka Daudi, kata gima oriwowa gi wuod Jesse! Yaye, ja-Israel moro ka moro odog e hembe!”
2 So euery man of Israel went from Dauid and followed Sheba the sonne of Bichri: but the men of Iudah claue fast vnto their King, from Iorden euen to Ierusalem.
Omiyo jo-Israel duto noweyo Daudi mondo oluw Sheba wuod Bikri. To jo-Juda to nodongʼ gi ruodhgi ka gia Jordan nyaka gichopo Jerusalem.
3 When Dauid then came to his house to Ierusalem, the King tooke the ten women his concubines, that hee had left behinde him to keepe the house, and put them in warde, and fed them, but lay no more with them: but they were enclosed vnto the day of their death, liuing in widowhode.
Kane Daudi odwogo dalane Jerusalem, nokawo monde apar mamoko mane oweyo mondo orit dalane, mine oketogi e ot moro miritogie. Nomiyogi gik ma gikonyorego, to ne ok oriwore kodgi. Nolornegi e ot nyaka ne githo, ka gidak ka mon ma chwogi otho.
4 Then sayde the King to Amasa, Assemble me the men of Iudah within three dayes, and be thou here present.
Eka ruoth nowacho ni Amasa niya, “Luong jo-Juda mondo obi ira bangʼ ndalo adek, to in bende ibi ka.”
5 So Amasa went to assemble Iudah, but hee taried longer then the time which he had appoynted him.
Kane Amasa odhi luongo jo-Juda nokawo ndalo mangʼeny moloyo ndalo mane ruoth omiye.
6 Then Dauid sayd to Abishai, Now shall Sheba the sonne of Bichri doe vs more harme then did Absalom: take thou therefore thy lords seruants and follow after him, lest he get him walled cities, and escape vs.
Daudi nowachone Abishai niya, “Koro Sheba wuod Bikri biro hinyowa moloyo kaka Abisalom notimo. Kaw jolwenj ruodhi mondo ilawe, ka ok kamano to onyalo yudo mier madongo mochiel mi odonjie kendo olalnwa.”
7 And there went out after him Ioabs men, and the Cherethites and the Pelethites, and all the mightie men: and they departed out of Ierusalem, to follow after Sheba the sonne of Bichri.
Omiyo jo-Joab gi jo-Kereth gi jo-Peleth kod jolweny mathuondi duto nowuok kotelnegi gi Abishai. Ne giwuok Jerusalem mondo gilaw Sheba wuod Bikri.
8 When they were at the great stone, which is in Gibeon, Amasa went before them, and Ioabs garment, that hee had put on, was girded vnto him, and vpon it was a sword girded, which hanged on his loynes in the sheath, and as hee went, it vsed to fall out.
Kane pod gin e lwanda maduongʼ man Gibeon, Amasa nobiro romo kodgi. Joab norwako lepe mag lweny kendo notweyo okanda e nungone mosoyoe ligangla man e olalo. Kane osudo nyime, ligangla nolwar koa e olalo.
9 And Ioab sayde to Amasa, Art thou in health, my brother? and Ioab tooke Amasa by the beard with the right hand to kisse him.
Joab nowachone Amasa niya, “Idhi nade owadwa?” Eka Joab nomako Amasa gi yie tike gi lwete ma korachwich ka gima odwaro mose gi nyoth.
10 But Amasa tooke no heede to the sworde that was in Ioabs hande: for therewith he smote him in the fift rib, and shed out his bowels to the ground, and smote him not the second time: so he dyed. then Ioab and Abishai his brother followed after Sheba the sonne of Bichri.
To Amasa ne onge gi paro moro amora kuom ligangla mane ni e lwet Joab, kendo Joab nochwowo bund iye gi liganglano molal, mi nyimbiye noredhore piny. Amasa notho ma ok ochako ochwowe kendo. Eka Joab gi owadgi ma Abishai nolawo Sheba wuod Bikri.
11 And one of Ioabs men stoode by him, and saide, He that fauoureth Ioab, and hee that is of Dauids part, let him go after Ioab.
Achiel kuom jo-Joab nochungʼ but Amasa mowacho niya, “Ngʼama jakor Joab; kendo moyie gi Daudi mondo oluw bangʼ Joab!”
12 And Amasa wallowed in blood in the mids of the way: and when the man sawe that all the people stood still, he remooued Amasa out of the way into the fielde, and cast a cloth vpon him, because he saw that euery one that came by him, stoode still.
Amasa noriere piny kochadhore gi rembe e dier yo, kendo ngʼatno noneno ka jolweny duto ne chungʼ kochopo kanyo. Bende ka noneno ka ji duto chungʼ kochopo kama Amasa nothoeno, noywaye oko mar yo motere e pap moume gi law.
13 When hee was remoued out of the way, euerie man went after Ioab, to follow after Sheba the sonne of Bichri.
Kane Amasa osegol e yo, ji duto nodhi gi Joab mondo gilaw Sheba wuod Bikri.
14 And he went through all the tribes of Israel vnto Abel, and Bethmaachah and all places of Berim: and they gathered together, and went also after him.
Sheba nokadho e dier dhout Israel duto mochopo nyaka Abel Beth Maaka, bende nokadho e gwenge jo-Beri duto, kendo jogo nochokore kaachiel mondo oluwe.
15 So they came, and besieged him in Abel, neere to Bethmaachah: and they cast vp a mount against the citie, and the people thereof stood on the ramper, and al the people that was with Ioab, destroyed and cast downe the wall.
Migepe duto mag jolweny mane nigi Joab nobiro molworo Sheba ka en Abel Beth Maaka. Negigoyo agengʼa ne dala maduongʼno kendo ka gichungʼ e agengʼa molworo ohinga. To e kindeno mane gitwomo ohinganano mondo gimuke,
16 Then cried a wise woman out of the citie, Heare, heare, I pray you, say vnto Ioab, Come thou hither, that I may speake with thee.
dhako moro mariek mane ni e dala maduongʼno nokok matek kowacho niya, “Winjuru! Nyisuru Joab obi ka mondo alos kode.”
17 And when hee came neere vnto her, the woman said, Art thou Ioab? And he answered, Yea. And she said to him, Heare the wordes of thine handmaid. And he answered, I do heare.
Joab nodhi kama dhakono ne nitie, mi nopenjo niya, “In e Joab?” Nodwoke niya, “En an.” Nowachone niya, “Chik iti ni gima jatichni dwaro wachoni.” Joab nowacho niya, “Awinjo.”
18 Then shee spake thus, They spake in the olde time, saying, They shoulde aske of Abel. and so haue they continued.
Nomedo wuoyo kowachone niya, “Chon gi lala ji ne jawacho ni, ‘Dhi Abel mondo ngʼadnie rieko,’ kendo wachno ne rumo kamano.
19 I am one of them, that are peaceable and faithful in Israel: and thou goest about to destroy a citie, and a mother in Israel: why wilt thou deuoure the inheritance of the Lord?
Wan joma odak gi kwe kendo ma jo-adiera e piny Israel ka. In to itemo mondo iketh dala maduongʼ man Israel. Angʼo momiyo idwaro tieko oganda Jehova Nyasaye?”
20 And Ioab answered, and said, God forbid, God forbid it me, that I should deuoure, or destroy it.
Joab nodwoke niya, “Ngangʼ, ok en kamano! Mano gima ok anyal timo kendo ok anyal kethe!
21 The matter is not so, but a man of mout Ephraim (Sheba ye sonne of Bichri by name) hath lift vp his had against ye King, euen against Dauid: deliuer vs him onely, and I will depart from the citie. And the woman saide vnto Ioab, Beholde, his head shalbe throwen to thee ouer the wall.
Ngangʼ, ok en kamano! To gima timore en ni ngʼat moro miluongo ni Sheba wuod Bikri, moa e piny gode mag Efraim, ema piem gi ruoth Daudi. Omiyo miya ngʼatno kende, to abiro weyo dala maduongʼni.” Dhakoni nowachone Joab niya, “Wiye ibiro dirni gi ewi ohinga.”
22 Then the woman went vnto all the people with her wisedome, and they cut off the head of Sheba the sonne of Bichri, and cast it to Ioab: the he blewe the trumpet, and they retired from the citie, euery man to his tent: and Ioab returned to Ierusalem vnto the King.
Eka dhakono nodhi ir ji gi riekone mane ongʼadono, kendo negingʼado wi Sheba wuod Bikri mi gidiro ni Joab. Omiyo nogoyo turumbete, mi joge no-aa mi giweyo dala maduongʼno kendo moro ka moro nodok e dalane. Joab to nodok Jerusalem ir ruoth.
23 Then Ioab was ouer all the hoste of Israel, and Benaiah the sonne of Iehoiada ouer the Cherethites and ouer the Pelethies,
Joab ne jatend jolweny Israel duto; ka Benaya wuod Jehoyada to ne otelo ne jolwenj jo-Kereth kod jo-Peleth.
24 And Adoram ouer the tribute, and Ioshaphat the sonne of Ahilud the recorder,
Adoniram to notelo ni joma tiyo tich achuna, Jehoshafat wuod Ahilud ne jandiko;
25 And Sheia was Scribe, and Zadok and Abiathar the Priests,
Sheva ne jagoro; to Zadok gi Abiathar ne jodolo.
26 And also Ira the Iairite was chiefe about Dauid.
To Ira ja-Jair ne jadolo mar Daudi.
