2 Samuel 17
1 Moreover Ahithophel said unto Absalom, Let me now choose out twelve thousand men, and I will arise and pursue after David this night:
Tinovo’ i Ahitofele amy Absalome ty hoe: Angao ho joboñeko ty lahilahy rai-ale-tsi-ro’arivo henaneo, le anito haleñe
2 And I will come upon him while he [is] weary and weak handed, and will make him afraid: and all the people that [are] with him shall flee; and I will smite the king only:
ty hivotrahako ama’e, ie mokotse naho am-pitàñe maleme, hampangebakebak’ aze; le hitriban-day ondaty iaby mindre ama’eo vaho i mpanjakay avao ty ho lafaeko;
3 And I will bring back all the people unto thee: the man whom thou seekest [is] as if all returned: [so] all the people shall be in peace.
le hampoliko ama’o ondaty iabio; aa ie fonga nitampoly ondatio naho tsy i paia’oy avao, le hene hanintsiñe ondatio.
4 And the saying pleased Absalom well, and all the elders of Israel.
Nitea’ i Absalome naho ze hene mpiaolo’ Israele i saontsy zay.
5 Then said Absalom, Call now Hushai the Archite also, and let us hear likewise what he saith.
Le hoe t’i Absalome: Kanjio henaneo t’i Khosaý nte-Ereke le ho janjiñen-tika ka ty ho saontsie’e.
6 And when Hushai was come to Absalom, Absalom spake unto him, saying, Ahithophel hath spoken after this manner: shall we do [after] his saying? if not; speak thou.
Aa ie nipok’ amy Absalome eo t’i Khosaý, le hoe t’i Absalome ama’e: Nanao hoe zao ty Ahitofele; Horihen-tika hao i nisaontsie’ey? fa naho tsie le mitaroña.
7 And Hushai said unto Absalom, The counsel that Ahithophel hath given [is] not good at this time.
Le hoe t’i Khosaý amy Absalome: Tsy soa ty toro-hevetse natolo’ i Ahitofele henaneo.
8 For, said Hushai, thou knowest thy father and his men, that they [be] mighty men, and they [be] chafed in their minds, as a bear robbed of her whelps in the field: and thy father [is] a man of war, and will not lodge with the people.
Tinovo’ i Khosaý ty hoe: Fohi’o ty rae’o naho ondati’eo, t’ie fanalolahy, naho manahake ty dobe tinavañ’ anak’ an-kivok’ ao ty hafain’ afero añ’arofo’ iareo; toe mpañotakotake ty rae’o, vaho tsy hitoetse am’ ondati’eo.
9 Behold, he is hid now in some pit, or in some [other] place: and it will come to pass, when some of them be overthrown at the first, that whosoever heareth it will say, There is a slaughter among the people that follow Absalom.
Oniño t’ie mietak’ an-kadaha ndra an-toets’ ila’e henaneo; aa ie vaho miambotrak’ am’iereo am-baloha’e, le hanao ty hoe ze mahajanjiñe izay: Fizamanañe ty zoeñe am’ondaty mañorike i Absalomeo;
10 And he also [that is] valiant, whose heart [is] as the heart of a lion, shall utterly melt: for all Israel knoweth that thy father [is] a mighty man, and [they] which [be] with him [are] valiant men.
le akore amy zao i fanalolahiy, i aman-tron-dionay, kanao hitranake; fa songa fohi’ Israele te ondaty maozatse ty rae’o naho sindre fanalolahy o mpiama’eo.
11 Therefore I counsel that all Israel be generally gathered unto thee, from Dan even to Beer-sheba, as the sand that [is] by the sea for multitude; and that thou go to battle in thine own person.
Aa le ty hoe ty fanoroako: te hifanontoñe ama’o t’Israele iaby boake Dane pake Beeresebà manahake ty faseñe añ’olon-driake ey ami’ty hatsifotofoto’e; le ihe ka ro ho mb’an-kotakotak’ ao.
12 So shall we come upon him in some place where he shall be found, and we will light upon him as the dew falleth on the ground: and of him and of all the men that [are] with him there shall not be left so much as one.
Aa le hivotrak’ ama’e tika amy ze toetse haharendrehañe aze; hipetak’ ama’e manahake ty fipetahan-jono an-tane; leo raike tsy hapon-tika ndra ie ndra o mpiama’eo.
13 Moreover, if he be gotten into a city, then shall all Israel bring ropes to that city, and we will draw it into the river, until there be not one small stone found there.
Tovo izay he ie mitolila mb’ an-drova ao, le hene hinday taly t’Israele vaho ho kozozoten-tika mb’ am-bavatane ao ampara’ te tsy hanjoàñe vato kede.
14 And Absalom and all the men of Israel said, The counsel of Hushai the Archite [is] better than the counsel of Ahithophel. For the LORD had appointed to defeat the good counsel of Ahithophel, to the intent that the LORD might bring evil upon Absalom.
Aa le hoe t’i Absalome naho o hene ondati’ Israeleo: Toe soa ty toro-heve’ i Khosaý nte-Ereke te amy tolo-keve’ i Akitofeley—amy te linili’ Iehovà ty handreketañe ty toro-hevetse soa’ i Akitofele, hametsaha’ Iehovà hankàñe amy Absalome.
15 Then said Hushai unto Zadok and to Abiathar the priests, Thus and thus did Ahithophel counsel Absalom and the elders of Israel; and thus and thus have I counselled.
Aa le hoe t’i Khosaý amy Tsadoke naho i Abiatare mpisoroñe: Zao naho zao ty natoro’ i Akitofele amy Absalome naho amo roandria’ Israleo; vaho zao naho zao ka ty natoloko.
16 Now therefore send quickly, and tell David, saying, Lodge not this night in the plains of the wilderness, but speedily pass over; lest the king be swallowed up, and all the people that [are] with him.
Aa le mañitrifa masìka, vaho ano ty hoe amy Davide: Ko mitoetse amo montom-patrambeio te anito haleñe, fa mitsàha ndra manao akore; tsy mone habotseke i mpanjakay naho ze hene ondaty mindre ama’e.
17 Now Jonathan and Ahimaaz stayed by En-rogel; for they might not be seen to come into the city: and a wench went and told them; and they went and told king David.
Ie amy zao, nitoboke e En-drogele t’Ionatane naho i Akimatse; naho nimpiheo am’ iereo ty mpitoroñe nitalily; le nimb’ amy Davide mpanjaka añe ka iereo nitalily, soa tsy ho oniñe mimoake amy rovay.
18 Nevertheless a lad saw them, and told Absalom: but they went both of them away quickly, and came to a man’s house in Bahurim, which had a well in his court; whither they went down.
Fe nitrea’ ty ajalahy le natalili’e amy Absalome; aa le nivoratsake iereo naho nivotrak’ añ’anjomba’ ondaty e Bakorime ze amam-bovoñe an-toe’e vaho nizotso ao.
19 And the woman took and spread a covering over the well’s mouth, and spread ground corn thereon; and the thing was not known.
Rinambe’ ty rakemba ty tako’e naho nakape’e am-bava’ i vovoñey, vaho naparatsa’e ambone’e eo ty tsako lisañe; le tsy nifohiñe.
20 And when Absalom’s servants came to the woman to the house, they said, Where [is] Ahimaaz and Jonathan? And the woman said unto them, They be gone over the brook of water. And when they had sought and could not find [them], they returned to Jerusalem.
Pok’ amy rakembay amy anjombay ty mpitoro’ i Absalome nanao ty hoe: Aia t’i Akimatse naho Ionatane? Le hoe i rakembay tam’ iereo: Fa nitsake i torahan-dranoy iereo. Aa le nitsoeke fe tsy nahaisake le nimpoly mb’e Ierosalaime mb’eo.
21 And it came to pass, after they were departed, that they came up out of the well, and went and told king David, and said unto David, Arise, and pass quickly over the water: for thus hath Ahithophel counselled against you.
Aa ie nienga, le niakatse i vovoñey iereo vaho nionjomb’eo nitalily amy Davide; le nanao ty hoe amy Davide: Miongaha, masikà, itsaho i ranoy; fa inao ty toro-heve’ i Akitofele ty ama’o.
22 Then David arose, and all the people that [were] with him, and they passed over Jordan: by the morning light there lacked not one of them that was not gone over Jordan.
Aa le niongake t’i Davide, rekets’ o hene’ ondaty nindre ama’eo, vaho nitsake Iordaney; aa ie niporea’ ty maraindray leo raike tsy nipoke tsy tafatsake Iordaney.
23 And when Ahithophel saw that his counsel was not followed, he saddled [his] ass, and arose, and gat him home to his house, to his city, and put his household in order, and hanged himself, and died, and was buried in the sepulchre of his father.
Aa naho nioni’ i Akitofele te tsy noriheñe i toro-heve’ey, nidiaña’e i borìke’ey naho nimpoly mb’ añ’ anjomba’e mb’ an-drova’e añe, le nambine’e i anjomba’ey, vaho nameo vatañe; nihomake, naho nalentek’ an-kiborin-drae’e ao.
24 Then David came to Mahanaim. And Absalom passed over Jordan, he and all the men of Israel with him.
Ie pok’e Maknaime añe t’i Davide vaho nitsake Iordaney t’i Absalome, mindre amo fonga’ ondati’ Israeleo.
25 And Absalom made Amasa captain of the host instead of Joab: which Amasa [was] a man’s son, whose name [was] Ithra an Israelite, that went in to Abigail the daughter of Nahash, sister to Zeruiah Joab’s mother.
Nampifehè’ i Absalome i valobohòkey t’i Amasà hasolo Ioabe. Ana’ t’i ana’ Israele atao Iterà nimoak’ amy Abigale ana’ i Nakase, rahavave’ i Tseroià, rene’ Ioabey t’i Amasà.
26 So Israel and Absalom pitched in the land of Gilead.
Aa le nañoren-kibohotse an-tane Gilade ao t’Israele naho i Absalome.
27 And it came to pass, when David was come to Mahanaim, that Shobi the son of Nahash of Rabbah of the children of Ammon, and Machir the son of Ammiel of Lo-debar, and Barzillai the Gileadite of Rogelim,
Ie fa nivotrake e Maknaime t’i Davide le niheo mb’eo t’i Sobý ana’ i Nakase afo’ i Rabà, nte Amone naho i Makire, ana’ i Amiele nte-Lodebàre vaho i Barzilas nte-Gilade boake Rogelime
28 Brought beds, and basons, and earthen vessels, and wheat, and barley, and flour, and parched [corn], and beans, and lentiles, and parched [pulse],
ninday tihy naho sajoa naho valàñe tane naho vare-bolè naho vare hordea naho lilañe naho tsako-tono naho antake naho mahalay naho poataran’ ampemba
29 And honey, and butter, and sheep, and cheese of kine, for David, and for the people that [were] with him, to eat: for they said, The people [is] hungry, and weary, and thirsty, in the wilderness.
naho tantele naho ronono dero naho añondry vaho habobon’ añombe amy Davide naho ondaty nindre ama’e iabio, hikama, ami’ty asa’ iareo ty hoe: Fa saliko naho mifoezapoezake vaho taliñiereñe ondaty am-patrambeio.
