2 Samuel 3
1 There was then long warre betweene the house of Saul and the house of Dauid: but Dauid waxed stronger, and the house of Saul waxed weaker.
Na he roa te pakanga i waenganui o te whare o Haora me te whare o Rawiri: a ko Rawiri i kaha haere, ko te whare ia o Haora i ngoikore haere.
2 And vnto Dauid were children borne in Hebron: and his eldest sonne was Amnon of Ahinoam the Izreelite,
A i whanau etahi tama ma Rawiri ki Heperona: ko Amanono tana matamua, na Ahinoama Ietereeri;
3 And his seconde, was Chileab of Abigail the wife of Nabal the Carmelite: and the third, Absalom the sonne of Maacah the daughter of Talmai the King of Geshur,
Ko Kireapa ano tana tuarua, na Apikaira wahine a Napara Karameri; ko Apoharama te tuatoru, he tama na Maaka tamahine a Taramai kingi o Kehuru;
4 And the fourth, Adoniiah the sonne of Haggith, and the fifth, Shephatiah the sonne of Abital,
Na ko Aronia te tuawha, he tama na Hakiti; a ko Hepatia te tuarima, he tama na Apitara;
5 And the sixt, Ithream by Eglah Dauids wife: these were borne to Dauid in Hebron.
Ko Itireama te tuaono, na Ekera wahine a Rawiri. I whanau enei ki a Rawiri ki Heperona.
6 Nowe while there was warre betweene the house of Saul and the house of Dauid, Abner made all his power for the house of Saul.
A i te mea e whawha ana te whare o Haora ki te whare o Rawiri, na ka mea a Apanere i a ia ano kia kaha i roto i te whare o Haora.
7 And Saul had a concubine named Rizpah, the daughter of Aiiah. And Ish-bosheth sayde to Abner, Wherefore hast thou gone in to my fathers concubine?
Na he wahine iti ta Haora i mua, ko Ritipa te ingoa, he tamahine na Aia: na ka mea a Ihipohete ki a Apanere, He aha koe i haere ai ki roto, ki te wahine a toku papa?
8 Then was Abner very wroth for the words of Ish-bosheth, and said, Am I a dogges head, which against Iudah do shew mercie this day vnto the house of Saul thy father, to his brethren, and to his neighbours, and haue not deliuered thee into the hande of Dauid, that thou chargest me this day with a fault concerning this woman?
Katahi ka mura rawa te riri o Apanere i nga kupu a Ihipohete, ka mea, He upoko kuri koia ahau no Hura? e atawhai nei ahau i tenei ra i te whare o Haora, o tou papa, i ona teina, i ona whanaunga, kihai hoki i tuku i a koe ki te ringa o Rawiri, heo i e whakahe nei koe i ahau inaianei mo tenei wahine.
9 So doe God to Abner, and more also, except, as the Lord hath sworne to Dauid, euen so I doe to him,
Kia meatia tenei e te Atua ki a Apanere, me etahi atu mea ano, ki te kahore ahau e mea i tena ki a Rawiri, pera i ta Ihowa i oati ai ki a ia;
10 To remoue the kingdome from the house of Saul, that the throne of Dauid may be stablished ouer Israel, and ouer Iudah, euen from Dan to Beer-sheba.
Hei whakawhiti atu i te kingitanga i te whare o Haora, hei whakapumau hoki i te torona o Rawiri i roto i a Iharaira, i roto i a Hura, mai i Rana a Peerehepa atu ana.
11 And he durst no more answere to Abner: for he feared him.
A kihai i taea e ia te whakahoki kupu ki a Apanere, i wehi hoki ia i a ia.
12 Then Abner sent messengers to Dauid on his behalfe, saying, Whose is the lande? who should also say, Make couenant with me, and beholde, mine hande shalbe with thee, to bring all Israel vnto thee.
Na ka unga karere a Apanere ki a Rawiri, he mea nana ake, hei ki atu, No wai te whenua? hei mea hoki, Whakaritea tau kawenata ki ahau, nana, ko toku ringa hoki ki a koe hei mea i a Iharaira katoa kia anga ki a koe.
13 Who saide, Well, I will make a couenant with thee: but one thing I require of thee, that is, that thou see not my face except thou bring Michal Sauls daughter when thou commest to see me.
Na ka mea tera, E pai ana; me whakarite kawenata ahau ki a koe: kotahi ano ia taku mea e tono ai ahau i a koe, ara e kore koe e kite i toku mata, ki te kahore e kawea mai e koe a Mikara tamahine a Haora, ina haere mai koe kia kite i toku mata.
14 Then Dauid sent messengers to Ish-bosheth Sauls sonne, saying, Deliuer me my wife Michal, which I marryed for an hundreth foreskinnes of the Philistims.
I unga karere ano a Rawiri ki a Ihipohete tama a Haora, hei mea, Homai taku wahine a Mikara i taumautia e ahau maku ki nga kiri matamata kotahi rau o nga Pirihitini.
15 And Ish-bosheth sent, and tooke her from her husband Phaltiel the sonne of Laish.
Na ka unga tangata a Ihipohete ki te tango i a ia i tana tahu i a Paratiere tama a Raihi.
16 And her husband went with her, and came weeping behinde her, vnto Bahurim: then saide Abner vnto him, Go, and returne. So he returned.
I haere tahi ano tana tahu i a ia, me te tangi haere i muri i a ia, a tae noa ki Pahurimi. Na ka mea a Apanere ki a ia, Haere, e hoki. A hoki ana ia.
17 And Abner had communication with the Elders of Israel, saying, Ye sought for Dauid in times past, that he might be your King.
Na ka korero a Apanere ki nga kaumatua o Iharaira, ka mea, I rapu koutou i a Rawiri i mua ake nei hei kingi mo koutou.
18 Nowe then doe it: for the Lord hath spoken of Dauid, saying, By the hand of my seruant Dauid I will saue my people Israel out of the handes of the Philistims, and out of the handes of all their enemies.
Na, tena ra; ko ta Ihowa korero hoki tenei mo Rawiri, i ki ai, Ma te ringa o Rawiri o taku pononga e whakaora ai ahau i taku iwi i a Iharaira i roto i te ringa o nga Pirihitini, i roto hoki i te ringa o o ratou hoariri katoa.
19 Also Abner spake to Beniamin, and afterward Abner went to speake with Dauid in Hebron, concerning all that Israel was content with, and the whole house of Beniamin.
A i korero ano a Apanere ki nga taringa o Pineamine; i haere ano a Apanere, a korerotia ana e ia ki nga taringa o Rawiri i Heperona nga mea katoa e pai ana ki te titiro a Iharaira, ki te titiro ano a te whare katoa o Pineamine.
20 So Abner came to Dauid to Hebron, hauing twentie men with him, and Dauid made a feast vnto Abner, and to the men that were with him.
Heoi ka haere a Apanere ki a Rawiri ki Heperona, e rua tekau hoki tangata ona hoa. A tukua ana e Rawiri he hakari ma Apanere ratou ko ona hoa.
21 Then Abner sayde vnto Dauid, I will rise vp, and goe gather all Israel vnto my lorde the King, that they may make a couenant with thee, and that thou mayest reigne ouer all that thine heart desireth. Then Dauid let Abner depart, who went in peace.
Na ka mea a Apanere ki a Rawiri, Ka whakatika ahau, ka haere, a ka huihui mai i a Iharaira katoa ki toku ariki, ki te kingi; a ma ratou e whakarite kawenata ki a koe, a hei kingi koe mo nga mea katoa e hiahia ai tou wairua. Na tukua atu ana a Ap anere e Rawiri, a haere marie ana ia.
22 And beholde, the seruants of Dauid and Ioab came from the campe, and brought a great pray with them (but Abner was not with Dauid in Hebron: for he had sent him away, and he departed in peace)
Na ko te haerenga mai o nga tangata a Rawiri ratou ko Ioapa i te whai taua, he nui ano nga taonga i kawea mai e ratou: ko Apanere ia kahore i a Rawiri i Heperona; i tukua atu hoki ia, a haere marie ana.
23 When Ioab, and all the hoste that was with him were come, men tolde Ioab, saying, Abner the sonne of Ner came to the King, and he hath sent him away, and he is gone in peace.
A, no te taenga mai o Ioapa ratou ko tana ope katoa, ka korerotia te korero ki a Ioapa, I haere mai a Apanere tama a Nere ki te kingi; a tukua atu ana ia e ia, a haere marie ana ia.
24 Then Ioab came to the King, and saide, What hast thou done? beholde, Abner came vnto thee, why hast thou sent him away, and he is departed?
Na ka haere a Ioapa ki te kingi, a ka mea, He mahi aha tenei au? Nana, i haere mai a Apanere ki a koe: he aha ia i tukua atu ai e koe, a kua haere noa atu ia?
25 Thou knowest Abner the sonne of Ner: for he came to deceiue thee, and to knowe thy outgoing and ingoing, and to knowe all that thou doest.
E mohio ana koe ki a Apanere tama a Nere; i haere mai ia ki te tinihanga i a koe, kia mohio ai ia ki tou haerenga atu, ki tou haerenga mai, kia mohio ai hoki ki nga mea katoa e mea ai koe.
26 And when Ioab was gone out from Dauid, he sent messengers after Abner, which brought him againe from the well of Siriah vnknowing to Dauid.
Na ka puta a Ioapa ki waho i te aroaro o Rawiri, a unga tangata ana ki te whai i a Apanere, a whakahokia mai ana ia e ratou i te puna i Hiraha; ko Rawiri ia kihai i mohio.
27 And when Abner was come againe to Hebron, Ioab tooke him aside in the gate to speake with him peaceably, and smote him vnder the fift ryb, that he dyed, for the blood of Asahel his brother.
A, i te hokinga mai o Apanere ki Heperona, i a ia ano i te kuwaha, ka kawea ia e Ioapa ki tahaki; i mea kia ata korero ki a ia. Na patua ana ia i reira i te kopu, mate rawa, mo nga toto hoki o Atahere, o tona teina.
28 And when afterwarde it came to Dauids eare, he saide, I and my kingdome are giltlesse before the Lord for euer, concerning the blood of Abner the sonne of Ner.
A, no te rongonga o Rawiri i muri iho, ka mea, Kahore he hara oku, o toku kingitanga, i nga toto o Apanere tama a Nere i te aroaro o Ihowa a ake ake.
29 Let the blood fall on the head of Ioab, and on all his fathers house, that the house of Ioab be neuer without some that haue running issues, or leper, or that leaneth on a staffe, or that doeth fall on the sworde, or that lacketh bread.
Waiho kia tau iho ki runga ki te matenga o Ioapa, ki runga hoki i te whare katoa o tona papa: kaua hoki e kore i roto i te whare o Ioapa, tetahi i te mate rere, i te repera, i te whakawhirinaki ki te tokotoko, i te hinga i te hoari, i te kore ta ro ranei.
30 (So Ioab and Abishai his brother slewe Abner, because he had slaine their brother Asahel at Gibeon in battel)
Heoi patua iho a Apanere e Ioapa raua ko Apihai, ko tona teina, hei utu mo to raua teina, mo Atahere, i whakamatea nei e ia ki Kipeono i te tatauranga.
31 And Dauid said to Ioab, and to al the people that were with him, Rent your clothes, and put on sackecloth, and mourne before Abner: and King Dauid him selfe followed the beare.
Na ka mea a Rawiri ki a Ioapa ratou ko tona nuinga katoa, Haea o koutou kakahu, whitikiria hoki he kakahu taratara ki a koutou, ka tangi ai ki a Apanere. I haere ano a Kingi Rawiri i muri i te amo.
32 And when they had buryed Abner in Hebron, the King lift vp his voyce, and wept beside the sepulchre of Abner, and all the people wept.
Na ka tanumia a Apanere ki Heperona, a ka puaki te reo o te kingi, tangi ana i te urupa o Apanere; i tangi ano te iwi katoa.
33 And the King lamented ouer Abner, and sayde, Dyed Abner as a foole dyeth?
Na ka waiata apakura te kingi ki a Apanere, ka mea, Kia rite koia ki te matenga o te wairangi, te mate o Apanere?
34 Thine handes were not bounde, nor thy feete tyed in fetters of brasse: but as a man falleth before wicked men, so diddest thou fall. And all the people wept againe for him.
Kihai ou ringa i herea, kihai ou waewae i paiherea ki te rahiri: rite tonu tou hinganga ki te hinganga o te tangata i te aroaro o nga tamariki o te kino. I tangi ano te iwi katoa ki a ia.
35 Afterwarde all the people came to cause Dauid eate meate while it was yet day, but Dauid sware, saying, So doe God to me and more also, if I taste bread, or ought els till the sunne be downe.
Na ka haere mai te iwi katoa ki te mea i a Rawiri kia kai i te mea e awatea ana ano. Na ka oati a Rawiri, ka mea, Kia meatia mai tenei e te Atua ki ahau, me etahi atu mea ano, ki te pa ahau ki te taro, ki tetahi atu mea ranei, i te mea kahore an o i to noa te ra.
36 And all the people knewe it, and it pleased them: as whatsoeuer the King did, pleased all the people.
Na ka mohio te iwi katoa, a pai tonu ki ta ratou titiro; pera tonu me nga mea katoa i meatia e te kingi, he pai kau ki te titiro a te iwi katoa.
37 For all the people and all Israel vnderstoode that day, howe that it was not the Kings deede that Abner the sonne of Ner was slaine.
Na ka matau te iwi katoa ratou ko Iharaira katoa i taua ra ehara i te kingi nana i mea kia whakamatea a Apanere tama a Nere.
38 And the King said vnto his seruants, Know ye not, that there is a prince and a great man falle this day in Israel?
I mea hoki te kingi ki ana tangata, Kahore ianei koutou i matau, he rangatira, he tangata nui, kua hinga nei inaianei i roto i a Iharaira?
39 And I am this day weake and newly anoynted King: and these men the sonnes of Zeruiah be too harde for me: the Lord rewarde the doer of euill according to his wickednesse.
Ko ahau hoki, ahakoa i whakawahia hei kingi, iwikore ana i tenei ra; he maro rawa moku enei tangata, nga tama a Teruia. Kia rite ki tana kino ta Ihowa utu ki te kaimahi o te kino.
