< 2 Samuel 16 >

1 And David has passed on a little from the top, and behold, Ziba, servant of Mephibosheth, [is there] to meet him, and a couple of donkeys [are] saddled, and on them [are] two hundred loaves, and one hundred bunches of raisins, and one hundred of summer-fruit, and a bottle of wine.
Ary nony vao nihilana kely avy teo an-tampon’ ny tendrombohitra Davida, indro, Ziba, mpanompon’ i Mefiboseta, nitsena azy mitondra boriky roa voaisy lasely sady ampitondraina mofo roan-jato sy voaloboka maina zato sampaho sy voankazo masaka fahavaratra zato ary divay iray tavoara.
2 And the king says to Ziba, “What [are] these to you?” And Ziba says, “The donkeys for the household of the king to ride on, and the bread and the summer-fruit for the young men to eat, and the wine for the wearied to drink in the wilderness.”
Ary hoy ny mpanjaka tamin’ i Ziba: Ahoana no hevitrao amin’ ireto? Dia hoy Ziba: Ny boriky dia ho an’ ny ankohonan’ ny mpanjaka itaingenany; ary ny mofo sy ny voankazo masaka fahavaratra hohanin’ ny zatovo; ary ny divay hosotroin’ izay reraka any an-efitra.
3 And the king says, “And where [is] the son of your lord?” And Ziba says to the king, “Behold, he is abiding in Jerusalem, for he said, Today the house of Israel gives back the kingdom of my father to me.”
Dia hoy ny mpanjaka: Aiza ny zanakalahin’ ny tomponao? Ary hoy Ziba tamin’ ny mpanjaka: Indro, mitoetra any Jerosalema izy; fa hoy izy: Anio no hampodian’ ny taranak’ Isiraely ny fanjakan’ ikaky ho ahy.
4 And the king says to Ziba, “Behold, all that Mephibosheth has [is] for you”; and Ziba says, “I have bowed myself—I find grace in your eyes, my lord, O king.”
Dia hoy ny mpanjaka tamin’ i Ziba: Indro, anao izay rehetra an’ i Mefiboseta. Ary hoy Ziba: Trarantitra anie ianao, aoka hahazo fitia eto imasonao aho, ry mpanjaka tompoko.
5 And King David has come to Bahurim, and behold, a man there is coming out, of the family of the house of Saul, and his name [is] Shimei, son of Gera, he comes out, coming out and reviling;
Ary nony nanakaiky an’ i Bahorima Davida mpanjaka, indro, nisy lehilahy, tamingan’ i Saoly ny anarany dia Simey, zanak’ i Gera nivoaka avy tao izy ka nanozona teny am-pandehanana.
6 and he stones David with stones, and all the servants of King David, and all the people, and all the mighty men on his right and on his left.
Ary nitora-bato an’ i Davida mpanjaka sy ny mpanompony rehetra izy; ary ny vahoaka rehetra sy ny lehilahy mahery rehetra dia teo amin’ ny ankavanan’ ny mpanjaka sy teo amin’ ny ankaviany.
7 And thus said Shimei in his reviling: “Go out, go out, O man of blood, and man of worthlessness!
Ary hoy ny fanozon’ i Simey: Mandehana, mandehana, ry lehilahy mpandatsa-drà sy tena ratsy fanahy!
8 YHWH has turned back on you all the blood of the house of Saul, in whose stead you have reigned, and YHWH gives the kingdom into the hand of your son Absalom; and behold, you [are] in your evil, for you [are] a man of blood.”
Nataon’ i Jehovah manody anao izao ny ran’ ny tamingan’ i Saoly, ilay nodimbiasanao fanjakana; ary Jehovah nanome ny fanjakana ho eo an-tànan’ i Absaloma zanakao kosa; ary indro, efa idiran-doza izao ianao, satria mpandatsa-drà.
9 And Abishai son of Zeruiah says to the king, “Why does this dead dog revile my lord the king? Please let me pass over and I turn aside his head.”
Ary hoy Abisay, zanak’ i Zeroia, tamin’ ny mpanjaka: Nahoana no avela hanozona ny mpanjaka tompoko io alika maty io? Trarantitra ianao, aoka aho handeha ka hanapaka ny lohany.
10 And the king says, “And what do I [have to do] with you, O sons of Zeruiah? For let him revile; even because YHWH has said to him, Revile David; and who says, Why have You done so?”
Fa hoy ny mpanjaka: Moa mifaninona akory izaho sy ianareo, ry zanak’ i Zeroia? Raha manozona izy, sady Jehovah no nanao taminy hoe: Ozony Davida, dia iza indray no hanao hoe: Nahoana ianao no manao izany?
11 And David says to Abishai, and to all his servants, “Behold, my son who came out of my bowels is seeking my life, and also surely now the Benjamite; leave him alone, and let him revile, for YHWH has commanded [so] to him;
Ary hoy koa Davida tamin’ i Abisay sy tamin’ ny mpanompony rehetra: Indro, ny zanako naterako aza mitady ny aiko, ka mainka io Benjamita io! Avelao ihany izy hanozona, fa Jehovah no nampanao azy izany.
12 it may be YHWH looks on my affliction, and YHWH has turned back good to me for his reviling this day.”
Angamba Jehovah hamindra fo amiko ny amin’ ny heloko ary hamaly soa ahy noho izao ozona nanjo ahy androany izao.
13 And David goes with his men in the way, and Shimei is going at the side of the hill opposite him, going on, and he reviles, and stones with stones close by him, and has dusted with dust.
Ary nony nandeha teny an-dalana Davida sy ny olony, dia nandeha tamin’ ny ilan’ ny havoana tandrifiny kosa Simey ka nanozona teny am-pandehanana sady nitora-bato nanandrify azy sy namafy vovoka.
14 And the king comes in, and all the people who [are] with him, wearied, and they are refreshed there.
Ary dia tonga tao ny mpanjaka sy ny vahoaka rehetra izay nanaraka azy sady efa reraka, ka dia naka aina teo izy.
15 And Absalom and all the people, the men of Israel, have come to Jerusalem, and Ahithophel with him,
Ary Absaloma sy ny vahoaka rehetra tamin’ ny Isiraely dia tonga tany Jerosalema, ary Ahitofela koa dia teo aminy.
16 and it comes to pass, when Hushai the Archite, David’s friend, has come to Absalom, that Hushai says to Absalom, “Let the king live! Let the king live!”
Ary Hosay Arkita, sakaizan’ i Davida, dia tonga tao amin’ i Absaloma ka nanao taminy hoe: Ho ela velona anie ny mpanjaka! ho ela velona anie ny mpanjaka!
17 And Absalom says to Hushai, “[Is] this your kindness with your friend? Why have you not gone with your friend?”
Fa hoy Absaloma tamin’ i Hosay: izao va no fitianao ny sakaizanao? Nahoana ianao no tsy mba nandeha niaraka tamin’ ny sakaizanao?
18 And Hushai says to Absalom, “No, for he whom YHWH has chosen, and this people, even all the men of Israel, I am his, and I abide with him;
Ary hoy Hosay tamin’ i Absaloma: Tsia, fa izay nofidin’ i Jehovah sa ireto vahoaka ireto mbamin’ ny lehilahy amin’ ny Isiraely, dia izy no hombako, sady ao aminy no hitoerako.
19 and secondly, for whom do I labor? Is it not before his son? As I served before your father, so I am before you.”
Ary koa, iza indray no hotompoiko? Tsy eo anatrehan’ ny zanany va? Tahaka ny nanompoako teo anatrehan’ ny rainao no hanompoako eto anatrehanao koa.
20 And Absalom says to Ahithophel, “Give counsel for yourself [for] what we do.”
Ary hoy Absaloma tamin’ i Ahitofela: Heveronareo tsara izay hataontsika.
21 And Ahithophel says to Absalom, “Go in to the concubines of your father, whom he left to keep the house, and all Israel has heard that you have been abhorred by your father, and the hands of all who [are] with you have been strong.”
Dia hoy Ahitofela tamin’ i Absaloma: Midìra ao amin’ ny vaditsindranon-drainao, izay nampiandrasiny trano; dia ho ren’ ny Isiraely rehetra fa efa nanamaimbo tena eo anatrehan-drainao ianao, ka dia hahery ny tànan’ izay rehetra momba anao.
22 And they spread out the tent for Absalom on the roof, and Absalom goes in to the concubines of his father before the eyes of all Israel.
Ary dia nanorin-day ho an’ i Absaloma teo an-tampon-trano ny olona; ary Absaloma niditra tao amin’ ny vaditsindranon-drainy teo imason’ ny Isiraely rehetra.
23 And the counsel of Ahithophel which he counseled in those days [is] as [when] one inquires at the word of God; so [is] all the counsel of Ahithophel both to David and to Absalom.
Ary ny hevitr’ i Ahitofela izay nataony tamin’ izany dia hoatra ny manontany amin’ Andriamanitra; toy izany avokoa ny hevitra rehetra nataon’ i Ahitofela, na tamin’ i Davida, na tamin’ i Absaloma.
