< 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.
A, he iti nei te haerenga atu o Rawiri i te tihi o te pikitanga, na ko Tipa, tangata a Mepipohete kua tutaki ki a ia, me nga kaihe e rua, whakanoho rawa; ko te pikaunga, he taro e rua rau, he tautau karepe maroke kotahi rau, he hua raumati kotahi rau, he ipu waina.
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.”
Na ka mea te kingi ki a Tipa, Hei aha enei mau? A ka mea a Tipa, Hei eke mo te whare o te kingi nga kaihe; hei kai ma nga tamariki te taro me nga hua raumati; hei inu ano te waina ma te hunga e ngenge ana i te koraha.
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.”
Na ka mea te kingi, A kei hea te tama a tou ariki? Ano ra ko Tipa ki te kingi, Kei Hiruharama tera e noho ana; i mea hoki, Ko aianei te whare o Iharaira whakahoki mai ai i te kingitanga o toku papa ki ahau.
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.”
Katahi te kingi ka mea ki a Tipa, Nana, mau katoa nga mea a Mepipohete. Na ka mea a Tipa, E piko atu nei ahau; kia manakohia ahau e koe, e toku ariki, e te kingi.
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;
A, no ka tae a Kingi Rawiri ki Pahurimi, na ka puta mai ki reira he tangata no te hapu o te whare o Haora, ko tona ingoa ko Himei, ko te tama a Kera: ko tona putanga mai e kanga haere ana.
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.
Epaina ana hoki e ia ki te kohatu a Rawiri me nga tangata katoa a Kingi Rawiri; na, ko te iwi katoa, ratou ko nga toa katoa kei tona matau, kei tona maui.
7 And thus said Shimei in his reviling: “Go out, go out, O man of blood, and man of worthlessness!
Ko te kupu hoki tenei a Himei i a ia e kanga ana, Puta atu, puta atu, e te tangata toto, e te tangata o Periara.
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.”
Kua whakahokia e Ihowa ki a koe nga toto katoa o te whare o Haora; ko koe na hoki te kingi i muri i a ia; a kua hoatu e Ihowa te kingitanga ki te ringa o Apoharama, o tau tama. Na kei tou kino na ano koe, he tangata toto na hoki koe.
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.”
Katahi ka mea a Apihai tama a Teruia ki te kingi, He aha tenei kuri mate i kanga ai ki toku ariki, ki te kingi? tena, kia whiti atu ahau ki te pouto i tona upoko.
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?”
Na ka mea te kingi, Hei aha maku ta korua, e nga tama a Teruia? He kanganga nana, he meatanga na Ihowa ki a ia, Kanga a Rawiri; ko wai tena hei mea, He aha koe i pena ai?
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;
I mea ano a Rawiri ki a Apihai ratou ko ana tangata katoa, Nana, ko taku tama i puta nei i roto i oku whekau te whai nei kia whakamatea ahau; na, tera noa ake aianei he mea ma tenei Pineamini. Waiho atu, tukua ia kia kanga; na Ihowa hoki i mea k i a ia.
12 it may be YHWH looks on my affliction, and YHWH has turned back good to me for his reviling this day.”
Tera pea a Ihowa e titiro ki toku mate, e homai i te pai ki ahau hei utu mo tana kanga ki ahau i tenei ra.
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.
Na haere ana a Rawiri ratou ko ana tangata i te huarahi; me te haere ano a Himei i te taha o te maunga i tona ritenga mai: haere ana me te kanga, me te epa i te kohatu ki tona ritenga mai, me te akiri ano i te puehu.
14 And the king comes in, and all the people who [are] with him, wearied, and they are refreshed there.
Na haere ngenge ana te kingi ratou ko tona nuinga, a okioki ana ki reira.
15 And Absalom and all the people, the men of Israel, have come to Jerusalem, and Ahithophel with him,
Na ka tae mai a Apoharama ratou ko te iwi katoa, nga tangata o Iharaira ki Hiruharama; ko Ahitopere hoki tona hoa.
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!”
Na, i te taenga o Huhai Araki, o te hoa o Rawiri, ki a Apoharama, na ka mea a Huhai ki a Apoharama, Kia ora te kingi, kia ora te kingi!
17 And Absalom says to Hushai, “[Is] this your kindness with your friend? Why have you not gone with your friend?”
Na ka mea a Apoharama ki a Huhai, Ko tou aroha tena ki tou hoa? he aha koe te haere tahi ai i tou hoa?
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;
Na ka mea a Huhai ki a Apoharama, Kahore, engari ko ta Ihowa, ko ta tenei iwi, ko ta nga tangata katoa o Iharaira e whiriwhiri ai, hei a ia he tikanga moku, a me noho ahau ki a ia.
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.”
Na, tetahi, kia mahi ahau ki a wai? kaua ianei ahau e mahi ki te aroaro o tana tama? ka rite ki taku mahi ki te aroaro o tou papa taku ki tou aroaro.
20 And Absalom says to Ahithophel, “Give counsel for yourself [for] what we do.”
Na ka mea a Apoharama ki a Ahitopere, Tena koa ou whakaaro me ahau tatou?
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.”
Na ka mea a Ahitopere ki a Apoharama, Haere ki nga wahine iti a tou papa, i waiho nei e ia hei tiaki i te whare, a ka rongo a Iharaira katoa kua piro whakarihariha koe ki tou papa, na ka kaha nga ringa o tou nuinga katoa.
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.
Na whakaturia ana tetahi teneti e ratou mo Apoharama ki runga ki te tuanui; a haere ana a Apoharama ki roto, ki nga wahine iti a tona papa i te tirohanga a Iharaira katoa.
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.
Na, ko te whakaaro o Ahitopere i whakaaro ai ia i aua ra, me te mea e uia ana he tikanga ki ta te Atua kupu. Pera tonu nga whakaaro katoa o Ahitopere ki a raua tokorua, ki a Rawiri, ki a Apoharama.
