2 Samuel 17
1 And Ahithophel said to Absalom, “Please let me choose twelve thousand men, and I arise and pursue after David tonight,
Ahitofeli sì wí fún Absalomu pé, “Èmi ó yan ẹgbàá mẹ́fà ọkùnrin èmi ó sì dìde, èmi ó sì lépa Dafidi lóru yìí.
2 and come on him, and he [will be] weary and feeble-handed, and I have caused him to tremble, and all the people who [are] with him have fled, and I have struck the king by himself,
Èmi ó sì yọ sí i nígbà tí àárẹ̀ bá mú un tí ọwọ́ rẹ̀ sì ṣe aláìle, èmi ó sì dá a ní ìjì, gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn tí ó wà lọ́dọ̀ rẹ̀ yóò sì sá, èmi ó sì kọlu ọba nìkan ṣoṣo.
3 and I bring back all the people to you—as the turning back of the whole [except] the man whom you are seeking—[then] all the people are [at] peace.”
Èmi ó sì mú gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn padà sọ́dọ̀ rẹ bi ìgbà tí ìyàwó bá padà sí ọ̀dọ̀ ọkọ rẹ̀. Ọkàn ẹnìkan ṣoṣo tí ìwọ ń wá yìí ni ó túmọ̀ sí ìpadàbọ̀ gbogbo wọn; gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn yóò sì wà ní àlàáfíà.”
4 And the word is right in the eyes of Absalom, and in the eyes of all [the] elderly of Israel.
Ọ̀rọ̀ náà sì tọ́ lójú Absalomu, àti lójú gbogbo àwọn àgbàgbà Israẹli.
5 And Absalom says, “Now call for Hushai the Archite also, and we hear what [is] in his mouth—even he.”
Absalomu sì wí pé, “Ǹjẹ́ pe Huṣai ará Arki, àwa ó sì gbọ́ èyí tí ó wà lẹ́nu rẹ̀ pẹ̀lú.”
6 And Hushai comes to Absalom, and Absalom speaks to him, saying, “According to this word Ahithophel has spoken; do we do his word? If not, you—speak.”
Huṣai sì dé ọ̀dọ̀ Absalomu, Absalomu sì wí fún un pé, “Báyìí ni Ahitofeli wí, kí àwa ṣe bí ọ̀rọ̀ rẹ bí? Bí ko bá sì tọ́ bẹ́ẹ̀, ìwọ wí.”
7 And Hushai says to Absalom, “The counsel that Ahithophel has counseled [is] not good at this time.”
Huṣai sì wí fún Absalomu pé, “Ìmọ̀ tí Ahitofeli gbà yìí, kò dára nísinsin yìí.”
8 And Hushai says, “You have known your father and his men, that they [are] heroes, and they are bitter in soul as a bereaved bear in a field, and your father [is] a man of war, and does not lodge with the people;
Huṣai sì wí pé, “Ìwọ mọ baba rẹ àti àwọn ọmọkùnrin rẹ̀ pé alágbára ni wọ́n, wọ́n sì wà ní kíkorò ọkàn bí àmọ̀tẹ́kùn tí a gbà ní ọmọ ni pápá, baba rẹ sì jẹ́ jagunjagun ọkùnrin kì yóò bá àwọn ènìyàn náà gbé pọ̀ lóru.
9 behold, now, he is hidden in one of the pits, or in one of the places, and it has been at the falling among them at the commencement, that the hearer has heard and said, There has been a slaughter among the people who [are] after Absalom;
Kíyèsi i, ó ti fi ara rẹ̀ pamọ́ nísinsin yìí ni ihò kan, tàbí ní ibòmíràn: yóò sì ṣe, nígbà tí díẹ̀ nínú wọn bá kọ́ ṣubú, ẹnikẹ́ni tí ó bá gbọ́ yóò sì wí pé, ‘Ìparun sì ń bẹ́ nínú àwọn ènìyàn tí ń tọ Absalomu lẹ́yìn.’
10 and he also, the son of valor, whose heart [is] as the heart of the lion, utterly melts, for all Israel knows that your father is a hero, and those with him [are] sons of valor.
Ẹni tí ó sì ṣe alágbára, tí ọkàn rẹ̀ sì dàbí ọkàn kìnnìún, yóò sì rẹ̀ ẹ́: nítorí gbogbo Israẹli ti mọ̀ pé alágbára ni baba rẹ, àti pé, àwọn tí ń bẹ lọ́dọ̀ rẹ jẹ́ alágbára.
11 So that I have counseled: let all Israel be diligently gathered to you, from Dan even to Beer-Sheba, as the sand that [is] by the sea for multitude, and you yourself are going in the midst;
“Nítorí náà èmi dámọ̀ràn pé, kí gbogbo Israẹli wọ́jọ pọ̀ sọ́dọ̀ rẹ, láti Dani títí dé Beerṣeba, gẹ́gẹ́ bí iyanrìn létí òkun fún ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀; àti pé, kí ìwọ tìkára rẹ̀ ó lọ sí ogun náà.
12 and we have come to him in one of the places where he is found, and we [are] on him as the dew falls on the ground, and there has not been left of him and of all the men who [are] with him even one.
Àwa ó sì yọ sí i níbikíbi tí àwa o gbé rí i, àwa ó sì yí i ká bí ìrì ti ń ṣẹ̀ sí ilẹ̀ àní, ọkàn kan kì yóò kù pẹ̀lú rẹ̀ nínú gbogbo àwọn ọmọkùnrin tí ó wà lọ́dọ̀ rẹ̀.
13 And if he is gathered to a city, then they have caused all Israel to carry ropes to that city, and we have drawn it to the brook until there has not even been found a stone there.”
Bí o bá sì bọ́ sí ìlú kan, gbogbo Israẹli yóò mú okùn wá sí ìlú náà, àwa ó sì fà á lọ sí odò, títí a kì yóò fi rí òkúta kéékèèké kan níbẹ̀.”
14 And Absalom says—and all the men of Israel, “The counsel of Hushai the Archite [is] better than the counsel of Ahithophel”; and YHWH willed to make void the good counsel of Ahithophel for the sake of YHWH’s bringing the calamity to Absalom.
Absalomu àti gbogbo ọkùnrin Israẹli sì wí pé, “Ìmọ̀ Huṣai ará Arki sàn ju ìmọ̀ Ahitofeli lọ! Nítorí Olúwa fẹ́ láti yí ìmọ̀ rere ti Ahitofeli po.” Nítorí kí Olúwa lè mú ibi wá sórí Absalomu.
15 And Hushai says to Zadok and to Abiathar the priests, “Thus and thus Ahithophel has counseled Absalom and the elderly of Israel, and thus and thus I have counseled;
Huṣai sì wí fún Sadoku àti fún Abiatari àwọn àlùfáà pé, “Báyìí ni Ahitofeli ti bá Absalomu àti àwọn àgbàgbà Israẹli dámọ̀ràn, báyìí lèmi sì bá a dámọ̀ràn.
16 and now, send quickly, and declare [it] to David, saying, Do not lodge in the plains of the wilderness tonight, and also, certainly pass over, lest there is a swallowing up of the king and of all the people who are with him.”
Nítorí náà yára ránṣẹ́ nísinsin yìí kí o sì sọ fún Dafidi pé, ‘Má ṣe dúró ní pẹ̀tẹ́lẹ̀ ijù náà lálẹ́ yìí, ṣùgbọ́n yára rékọjá kí a má bá a gbé ọba mì, àti gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn tí ó ń bẹ lọ́dọ̀ rẹ.’”
17 And Jonathan and Ahimaaz are standing at En-Rogel, and the maidservant has gone and declared [it] to them—and they go and have declared [it] to King David—for they are not able to be seen to go into the city.
Jonatani àti Ahimasi sì dúró ní En-Rogeli ọ̀dọ́mọdébìnrin kan sì lọ, ó sì sọ fún wọn, wọ́n sì lọ wọ́n sọ fún Dafidi ọba nítorí pé kí a má bá à rí wọn pé wọ́n wọ ìlú.
18 And a youth sees them, and declares [it] to Absalom; and both of them go on quickly, and come to the house of a man in Bahurim, and he has a well in his court, and they go down there,
Ṣùgbọ́n ọ̀dọ́mọdékùnrin kan rí wọn, ó sì wí fún Absalomu, ṣùgbọ́n àwọn méjèèjì sì yára lọ kúrò, wọ́n sì wá sí ilé ọkùnrin kan ní Bahurimu, ẹni tí ó ní kànga kan ní ọgbà rẹ̀, wọ́n sì sọ̀kalẹ̀ sí ibẹ̀.
19 and the woman takes and spreads the covering over the face of the well, and spreads the ground grain on it, and the thing has not been known.
Obìnrin rẹ̀ sì mú nǹkan ó fi bo kànga náà, ó sì sá àgbàdo sórí rẹ̀, a kò sì mọ̀.
20 And the servants of Absalom come to the woman at the house, and say, “Where [are] Ahimaaz and Jonathan?” And the woman says to them, “They passed over the brook of water”; and they seek, and have not found, and return to Jerusalem.
Àwọn ìránṣẹ́ Absalomu sì tọ obìnrin náà wá sí ilé náà, wọ́n sì béèrè pé, “Níbo ni Ahimasi àti Jonatani gbé wà?” Obìnrin náà sì wí fún wọn pé, “Wọ́n ti gòkè rékọjá ìṣàn odò náà.” Wọ́n sì wá wọn kiri, wọn kò sì rí wọn, wọ́n sì yípadà sí Jerusalẹmu.
21 And it comes to pass, after their going on, that they come up out of the well, and go and declare [it] to King David, and say to David, “Rise, and pass over the waters quickly, for thus has Ahithophel counseled against you.”
Ó sì ṣe lẹ́yìn ìgbà tí wọ́n ti lọ tán, àwọn ọkùnrin náà sì jáde kúrò nínú kànga, wọ́n sì lọ wọ́n sì rò fún Dafidi ọba. Wọ́n sọ fún Dafidi pé, “Dìde kí o sì gòkè odò kánkán, nítorí pé báyìí ni Ahitofeli gbìmọ̀ sí ọ.”
22 And David rises, and all the people who [are] with him, and they pass over the Jordan, until the morning light, until not one has been lacking who has not passed over the Jordan.
Dafidi sì dìde, àti gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn tí ń bẹ lọ́dọ̀ rẹ̀, wọ́n sì gòkè odò Jordani: kí ilẹ̀ tó mọ́, ènìyàn kò kù tí kò gòkè odò Jordani.
23 And Ahithophel has seen that his counsel was not done, and he saddles the donkey, and rises and goes to his house, to his city, and gives charge to his household, and strangles himself, and dies, and he is buried in the burying-place of his father.
Nígbà tí Ahitofeli sì rí i pé wọn kò fi ìmọ̀ tirẹ̀ ṣe, ó sì di kẹ́tẹ́kẹ́tẹ́ rẹ̀ ni gàárì, ó sì dìde, ó lọ ilé rẹ̀, ó sì palẹ̀ ilé rẹ̀ mọ̀, ó sì so, ó sì kú, a sì sin ín sí ibojì baba rẹ̀. Absalomu gbógun ti Dafidi.
24 And David came to Mahanaim, and Absalom passed over the Jordan, he and all the men of Israel with him;
Dafidi sì wá sí Mahanaimu, Absalomu sì gòkè odò Jordani, òun àti gbogbo àwọn ọkùnrin Israẹli pẹ̀lú rẹ̀.
25 and Absalom has set Amasa over the host instead of Joab, and Amasa [is] a man’s son whose name is Ithra the Israeli who has gone in to Abigail, daughter of Nahash, sister of Zeruiah, mother of Joab;
Absalomu sì fi Amasa ṣe olórí ogun ní ipò Joabu: Amasa ẹni tí í ṣe ọmọ ẹnìkan, orúkọ ẹni tí a ń pè ní Itira, ará Israẹli, tí ó wọlé tọ Abigaili ọmọbìnrin Nahaṣi, arábìnrin Seruiah, ìyá Joabu.
26 and Israel encamps with Absalom [in] the land of Gilead.
Israẹli àti Absalomu sì dó ní ilẹ̀ Gileadi.
27 And it comes to pass at the coming in of David to Mahanaim, that Shobi son of Nahash, from Rabbah of the sons of Ammon, and Machir son of Ammiel, from Behold-Debar, and Barzillai the Gileadite, from Rogelim,
Nígbà tí Dafidi sì wá sí Mahanaimu, Ṣobi ọmọ Nahaṣi ti Rabba tí àwọn ọmọ Ammoni, àti Makiri ọmọ Ammieli ti Lo-Debari, àti Barsillai ará Gileadi ti Rogelimu.
28 [have brought] bed, and basin, and earthen vessel, and wheat, and barley, and flour, and roasted [grain], and beans, and lentiles, and roasted [pulse],
Mú àwọn àkéte, àti àwọn àwo, àti ìkòkò amọ̀, àti alikama, àti ọkà barle, àti ìyẹ̀fun, àti àgbàdo díndín, àti ẹ̀wà, àti erèé, àti lẹntili.
29 and honey, and butter, and sheep, and cheese of cows; they have brought [these] near for David, and for the people who [are] with him to eat, for they said, “Your people [are] hungry, and weary, and thirsty, in the wilderness.”
Àti oyin, àti òrí-àmọ́, àti àgùntàn, àti wàràǹkàṣì màlúù, wá fún Dafidi àti fún àwọn ènìyàn tí ń bẹ lọ́dọ̀ rẹ̀, láti jẹ: nítorí tí wọ́n wí pé, “Ebi ń pa àwọn ènìyàn, ó sì rẹ̀ wọ́n, òǹgbẹ sì ń gbẹ wọ́n ní aginjù.”
