2 Samuel 4
1 And when Saul's son heard that Abner was dead in Hebron, his hands were feeble, and all the Israelites were troubled.
Nang nabalitaan ni Isboset, lalaking anak ni Saul, na namatay si Abner sa Hebron, nanghina ang kaniyang mga kamay, at nagkagulo ang buong Israel.
2 And Saul's son had two men that were captains of bands: the name of the one was Baanah, and the name of the other Rechab, the sons of Rimmon a Beerothite, of the children of Benjamin: (for Beeroth also was reckoned to Benjamin.
Ngayon ang lalaking anak ni Saul ay mayroong dalawang tauhan na mga kapitan ng mga pangkat sundalo. Baana ang pangalan ng isa at Recab ang isa, mga lalaking anak ni Rimon na taga-Beerot na mga tao ni Benjamin (dahil ang Beerot ay itinuring na bahagi ng Benjamin,
3 And the Beerothites fled to Gittaim, and were sojourners there until this day.)
at tumakas ang mga taga-Beerot putungong Gittaim at naninirahan sila roon hanggang sa panahong ito).
4 And Jonathan, Saul's son, had a son that was lame of his feet. He was five years old when the tidings came of Saul and Jonathan out of Jezreel, and his nurse took him up, and fled: and it came to pass, as she made haste to flee, that he fell, and became lame. And his name was Mephibosheth.
Ngayon si Jonatan, lalaking anak ni Saul, ay mayroong isang lalaking anak na lumpo sa kaniyang mga paa. Limang taon gulang siya nang nabalitaan niya ang tungkol kina Saul at Jonatan na nagmula sa Jezreel. Binuhat siya ng kaniyang tagapangalaga para tumakas. Pero habang tumatakbo siya, natumba ang lalaking anak ni Jonatan at naging lumpo. Mefiboset ang kanyang pangalan.
5 And the sons of Rimmon the Beerothite, Rechab and Baanah, went, and came about the heat of the day to the house of Ishbosheth, who lay on a bed at noon.
Kaya ang mga anak na lalaki ni Rimon na taga-Beerot, na sina Recab at baana ay naglakbay ng ang panahon ay mainit papunta sa tahanan ni Isboset, habang siya ay nagpapahinga sa tanghali.
6 And they came thither into the midst of the house, as though they would have fetched wheat; and they stroke him under the fifth rib: and Rechab and Baanah his brother escaped.
Nakatulog ang babaeng nagbabantay sa pintuan habang sinasala ang trigo, at pumasok sina Recab at Baana nang tahimik at dinaanan siya.
7 For when they came into the house, he lay on his bed in his bedchamber, and they stroke him, and slew him, and beheaded him, and took his head, and got them away through the plain all night.
Kaya pagkatapos nilang pumasok ng bahay, sinalakay nila siya at pinatay habang nakahiga siya sa kaniyang higaan sa kaniyang silid. Pagkatapos pinugutan nila siya ng ulo at dinala ito palayo, buong gabi silang naglalakbay sa daan patungong Araba.
8 And they brought the head of Ishbosheth unto David to Hebron, and said to the king, Behold the head of Ishbosheth the son of Saul your enemy, which sought your life; and the LORD has avenged my lord the king this day of Saul, and of his seed.
Dinala nila ang ulo ni Isboset kay David sa Hebron, at sinabi nila sa hari, “Tingnan mo, ito ang ulo ni Isboset na lalaking anak ni Saul, ang iyong kaaway, na nagbabanta sa iyong buhay. Sa araw na ito pinaghigantihan ni Yahweh na ating panginoon si haring si Saul at kaniyang mga kaapu-apuhan.”
9 And David answered Rechab and Baanah his brother, the sons of Rimmon the Beerothite, and said unto them, As the LORD lives, who has redeemed my soul out of all adversity,
Sinagot ni David sina Recab at Baana na kaniyang kapatid, ang mga lalaking anak ni Rimon na taga-Beerot; sinabi niya sa kanila, “Habang nabubuhay si Yahweh, ang nagligtas sa aking buhay mula sa bawat kaguluhan,
10 When one told me, saying, Behold, Saul is dead, thinking to have brought good tidings, I took hold of him, and slew him in Ziklag, who thought that I would have given him a reward for his tidings:
nang sinabihan ako ng isang tao, 'Tingnan mo, patay na si Saul,' iniisip ko na nagdadala siya ng mabuting balita, hinuli ko siya at pinatay sa Himat Ziklag. Iyon ang gantimpala na ibinigay ko sa kaniya para sa kaniyang balita.
11 How much more, when wicked men have slain a righteous person in his own house upon his bed? shall I not therefore now require his blood of your hand, and take you away from the earth?
Gaano pa kaya, kapag pinatay ng mga masasamang lalaki ang isang taong walang kasalanan sa kaniyang sariling bahay sa kaniyang higaan, hindi ko ba dapat hingin ang kaniyang dugo ngayon mula sa inyong kamay, at aalisin kayo sa mundo?”
12 And David commanded his young men, and they slew them, and cut off their hands and their feet, and hanged them up over the pool in Hebron. But they took the head of Ishbosheth, and buried it in the tomb of Abner in Hebron.
Pagkatapos nagbigay si David ng utos sa mga binata, at pinatay nila sila at pinutol ang kanilang mga kamay at paa at isinabit sila sa tabi ng lawa sa Hebron. Pero kinuha nila ang ulo ni Isboset at inilibing ito sa libingan ni Abner sa Hebron.
