2 Samuel 20
1 And there happened to be a worthless man, whose name was Sheba', the son of Bichri, a Benjamite; and he blew the cornet, and said, We have no part in David, nor have we any inheritance in the son of Jesse: every man to his tents, O Israel!
Aa teo t’indaty nte-Beliale, i Sebà ty añara’e, ana’ i Bikrý nte-Ieminý, ie nampipopo tsifan’ añondry nitsey ty hoe: Tsy aman’ anjara amy Davide tika, vaho tsy aman-dova amy ana’ Iesey. Vonjeo ty kiboho’o ry Israeleo.
2 So every man of Israel went off from David, following Sheba' the son of Bichri; but the men of Judah adhered unto their king, from the Jordan even to Jerusalem.
Aa le nisitak’ amy Davide o ana’ Israele iabio vaho nañorike i Sebà, ana’ i Bikrý; fe nipitek’ amy mpanjaka’ey t’Iehoda boak’ am’ Iordaney pake Ierosalaime.
3 And David came to his house at Jerusalem; and the king took the ten women, the concubines, whom he had left to guard the house, and put them in a guard-house, and provided for them, but went not in unto them. So they were confined until the day of their death, living in widowhood.
Ie nitotsak’ añ’ anjomba’e Ierosalaime ao t’i Davide le rinambe’ i mpanjakay i rakemba folo nisakeza’e rey, i nenga’e ao hañambeñe i anjombay rey naho nagorogoda’e an-traño nigaritañe naho nifahana’e, f’ie tsy nimoak’ am’ iereo ka. Le songa nigabeñe ao ampara’ te nivetrake, ie niveloñe ho vantotse avao.
4 Then said the king to 'Amassa, Call together for me the men of Judah within three days, and thou present thyself here [then].
Hoe i mpanjakay amy Amasà: Koiho o lahilahy nte-Iehodao hifanontoñe atoy añate’ ty telo andro, le miatrefa ka.
5 So 'Amassa went to call Judah together; but he remained out longer than the set time which he had appointed him.
Aa le nimb’eo t’i Amasà hikanjy o nte-Iehodao hivory; f’ie nitambatse añe mandikoatse i andro nafè’e azey.
6 And David said to Abishai, Now will Sheba' the son of Bichri do us more harm than [did] Abshalom: take thou the servants of thy Lord, and pursue after him, lest he succeed in reaching fortified cities, and withdraw himself from our eyes.
Le hoe t’i Davide amy Abisay: Ie amy zao, handikoara’ i Seba ana’ i Bikrý ty joy nanoe’ i Absalome; rambeso arè o mpitoro’ i talè’oio, vaho horidaño, tsy mone ho rambese’e o rova aman-kijolio, vaho hipoliotse tsy ho onin-tika.
7 And there went out after him Joab's men, and the Kerethites, and the Pelethites, and all the mighty men: and they went forth out of Jerusalem, to pursue after Sheba' the son of Bichri.
Aa le niavotse hañoridañe aze ondati’ Ioabeo, naho o nte-Kereteo naho o nte-Peleteo, vaho o fanalolahy iabio; niakatse Ierosalaime hañoridañe i Sebà ana’ i Bikrý.
8 They were close by the great stone which is at Gib'on, as 'Amassa came before them. And Joab was girded with his coat, his [usual] garment, and upon it the girdle of the sword which was fastened upon his loins in its sheath; and as he went forth it fell out.
Ie nivotrak’ an-damilamy jabajaba’ i Gibone eo, le nimb’eo t’i Amasà nifanalaka am’ iereo. Nisikiñe o sarom-pialiañe fiombea’eo t’Ioabe, ama’e ty fiètse reketse fibara an-kotra’e nidiañe an-toha’e ao; aa ie nionjomb’eo le napontsoa’e.
9 And Joab said to 'Amassa, Art thou in health, my brother? And Joab's right hand took hold of 'Amassa's beard to kiss him.
Le hoe t’Ioabe amy Amasà: Akore v’iheo rahalahiko? Le rinambe’ Ioabe am-pità’e havana ty volon-tsomo’ i Amasà hañorofa’e aze.
10 And 'Amassa did not guard himself against the sword that was in Joab's hand: so he smote him therewith in the fifth rib and shed out his bowels to the ground, and struck him not again; and he died. But Joab and Abishai his brother pursued after Sheba' the son of Bichri.
Fe tsy nioni’ i Amasà ty fibara am-pità’ Ioabe; aa le trinofa’e ambane’ ty pa’e fahalime ao, naho nivorotrak’ an-tane o aova’eo vaho tsy nipaok’ aze fañindroe’e; fa nihomake. Nañinjake i Sebà ana’ i Bikrý t’Ioabe naho i Abisay rahalahi’e.
11 And one man of Joab's people remained standing by him, and said, He that favoreth Joab, and he that is for David, follow Joab.
Nijohañe eo ty ajalahi’ Ioabe nanao ty hoe; Ze miantoke Ioabe naho mpiamy Davide, ee te horihe’e t’Ioabe.
12 And 'Amassa was wallowing in his blood in the midst of the highway. And when the man saw that all the people stood still, he put 'Amassa aside out of the highway into the field, and threw a garment over him, when he saw that every one that came by him stood still.
Nilomoloañe an-dio’e añivo’ i lalañey t’i Amasà. Aa ie niisa’e te nijohañe ama’e avao ze hene ondaty le nijinie’e t’i Amasà naho nente’e alafe’ i lalañey mb’ an-teteke mb’eo vaho nañifike saroñe ama’e, amy te nioni’e te fonga nijohañe eo avao ze nañarine aze.
13 When he was removed out of the highway, every man passed on after Joab, to pursue after Sheba' the son of Bichri.
Aa ie navike tsy ho an-dalañey le norihe’ ondaty iabio t’Ioabe, hañoridañe i Sebà ana’ i Bikrý.
14 And this one passed through all the tribes of Israel unto Abel, which is of Beth-ma'achah, and all the Berim: and they assembled themselves together, and went also after him.
Niranga ze hene fifokoa’ Israele re pak’ Abele, naho e Betemaakà, naho amo nte-Berìo; aa le nifanontoñe iereo, nanonjohy aze.
15 And they came and besieged him in Abel of Beth-ma'achah, and they cast up a trench against the city, and it stood enclosed by the troops: and all the people that were with Joab were battering to throw down the wall.
Nionjomb’ eo iereo haname aze e Abele’ i Betemaakà ao, nampitoboarañe tamboho i rovay, le tiname’ ondaty iabio i kijoliy; finofo’ ze hene’ ondati’ Ioabe i kijoliy handrotsak’ aze.
16 Then called a wise woman out of the city, Hear, hear: say, I pray you, unto Joab, Come near as far as hither, that I may speak with thee.
Nikaik’ amy zao ty rakemba mahihitse boak’ amy rovay, ty hoe: Eo hey nahareo, mijanjiña, taroño am’ Ioabe ty hañarine mb’etoa, hivolañako.
17 And when he was come near unto her, the woman said, Art thou Joab? And he said, I am. Then said she unto him, Hear the words of thy hand-maid. And he said, I do hear.
Aa ie niharinea’e le hoe i rakembay: Ioabe v’iheo? Le namale re: Izaho ‘nio. Le hoe re ama’e: Janjiño ty enta’ o anak’ ampata’oo. Le hoe ty natoi’e, Mitsanon-draho.
18 Then said she, thus, They ought surely first to have spoken, saying, “Let them ask at least in Abel:” and so would they have come to an end.
Aa le hoe re, Sinaontsi’ o taoloo ty ti-hoe: Ie aman’ ontane, añontaneo e Abele ao: izay ty fampigadoña’ iareo.
19 I am one of the peaceful and faithful [cities] in Israel; thou seekest to overthrow a city and a metropolis in Israel: why wilt thou destroy the inheritance of the Lord?
Mpiamo mpampilongo migahiñe e Israeleo atoan-draho; aa mipay handrotsake rova naho ty rene raike e Israele ao v’iheo, Ino ty hampigodraña’o ty lova’ Iehovà?
20 And Joab answered and said, Far be it, far be it from me, that I should destroy or ruin.
Natoi’ Ioabe ty hoe: Mitotse amako izay; lavitse ahy t’ie hagodrako ndra harotsako.
21 The matter is not so; but a man from the mountains of Ephraim, Sheba' the son of Bichri is his name, hath lifted up his hand against the king, against David: give him up alone, and I will withdraw from the city. And the woman said unto Joab, Behold, his head shall be cast down to thee over the wall.
Tsy izay o rahao; fe nañonjo haoke hiatreatre i Davide mpanjaka t’indaty boak’ am-bohibohitse ao, i Sebà ana’ i Bikrý ty tahina’e. Aa le ie avao ty aseseo. Le hoe i rakembay am’ Ioabe: Ingo, hahiririñe ama’o hiranga o kijolio ty añambone’e.
22 And the woman came unto all the people with her wisdom; and they cut off the head of Sheba' the son of Bichri, and cast it down to Joab: and he blew the cornet, and they scattered themselves from the city, every man to his tents. And Joab returned to Jerusalem unto the king.
Aa le nimb’ am’ ondaty iabio i rakembay amy fahiti’ey. Le kinitsi’ iareo ty añambone’ i Sebà ana’i Bikrý vaho natorake mb’ am’ Ioabe ao. Pinopò’e amy zao i antsivay, le niparaitake boak’ amy rovay ondatio, songa mb’an-kiboho’e añe. Nimpoly mb’e Ierosalaime mb’ amy mpanjakay mb’eo t’Ioabe.
23 Now Joab was over all the army of Israel; and Benayah the son of Yehoyada' was over the Kerethites and over the Pelethites;
Ie amy zao: mpifehe’ ty valobohò’ Israele t’Ioabe vaho nifeleke o nte-Kereteo naho o nte-Peleteo t’i Benaià ana’ Iehoiadà;
24 And Adoram was over the tribute; and Jehoshaphat the son of Achilud was recorder;
i Adorame ty mpifelek’ i habay vaho mpamolily t’Iehosafate, ana’ i Aklode;
25 And Sheva was scribe; and Zadok and Ebyathar were priests;
mpanokitse t’i Seva, le mpisoroñe t’i Tsadoke naho i Abiatare;
26 And 'Ira also the Yairite was an officer of state unto David.
mpifehe amy Davide ka t’Irà nte-Iaire.
