2 Samuel 4
1 And the son of Saul hears that Abner [is] dead in Hebron, and his hands are feeble, and all of Israel has been troubled.
Ary nony ren’ ny zanakalahin’ i Saoly fa maty tany Hebrona Abnera, dia niraviravy tanana izy, ary raiki-tahotra ny Isiraely rehetra.
2 And two men, heads of troops, have been [to] the son of Saul, the name of the first [is] Baanah, and the name of the second Rechab, sons of Rimmon the Beerothite, of the sons of Benjamin, for Beeroth is also reckoned to Benjamin,
Ary nisy roa lahy, lehiben’ ny mpitohan’ ny zanakalahin’ i Saoly, Bana no anaran’ ny iray, ary Rekaba no anaran’ ny iray, samy zanak’ i Rimona Berotita tamin’ ny taranak’ i Benjamina (fa Berota koa natao ho isan’ ny an’ i Benjamina;
3 and the Beerothites flee to Gittaim, and are sojourners there to this day.
ary ny Berotita nandositra nankany Gitaima, dia nivahiny tany mandraka androany).
4 And to Jonathan son of Saul [is] a son—lame; he was a son of five years at the coming in of the rumor of [the death of] Saul and Jonathan, out of Jezreel, and his nurse lifts him up, and flees, and it comes to pass in her hastening to flee, that he falls, and becomes lame, and his name [is] Mephibosheth.
Ary Jonatana, zanak’ i Saoly, nanan-janakalahy malemy tongotra. Dimy taona izy, fony tonga avy tany Jezirela ny filazana ny amin’ i Saoly sy Jonatana; ary nentin’ ny mpitaiza azy nandositra izy; ary raha nentiny nandositra tamin’ ny fahatairana izy, dia nianjera ka tonga malemy tongotra, Mefiboseta no anarany.
5 And the sons of Rimmon the Beerothite, Rechab and Baanah, go, and come in at the heat of the day to the house of Ish-Bosheth, and he is lying down—the lying down of noon;
Ary Rekaba sy Bana, zanak’ i Rimona Berotita, nandeha; ka rehefa nafana ny andro, dia tonga tao an-tranon’ Isboseta, tamin’ ilay izy nandriandry tamin’ ny antoandro iny.
6 and they have come there, to the midst of the house, taking wheat, and they strike him to the fifth [rib], and Rechab and his brother Baanah have escaped;
Ary niditra tao anaty trano Rekaba sy Bana rahalahiny haka vary, ka namely azy tamin’ ny kibony, dia lasa nandositra.
7 indeed, they come into the house, and he is lying on his bed, in the inner part of his bed-chamber, and they strike him, and put him to death, and turn his head aside, and they take his head, and go the way of the plain all the night,
Fa raha niditra tao an-trano izy roa lahy, ary Isboseta nandry teo amin’ ny fandriany tao amin’ ny trano fandriany dia namely azy izy roa lahy ka nahafaty azy, dia notapahiny ny lohany ka nentiny; ary nandeha mandritra ny alina namaky ny tani-hay izy.
8 and bring in the head of Ish-Bosheth to David in Hebron, and say to the king, “Behold, the head of Ish-Bosheth, son of Saul, your enemy, who sought your life; and YHWH gives vengeance to my lord the king this day, of Saul and of his seed.”
Ary nitondra ny lohan’ Isboseta tany amin’ i Davida tao Hebrona izy ka nanao tamin’ ny mpanjaka hoe: Indro ny lohan’ Isboseta, zanak’ i Saoly fahavalonao, izay nitady ny ainao; fa Jehovah efa namaly an’ i Saoly sy ny taranany androany noho ny amin’ ny mpanjaka tompoko.
9 And David answers Rechab and his brother Baanah, sons of Rimmon the Beerothite, and says to them, “YHWH lives, who has redeemed my soul out of all adversity,
Ary hoy Davida tamin’ i Rekaba sy Bana rahalahiny, zanak’ i Rimona Berotita: Raha velona koa Jehovah, Izay namonjy ahy tamin’ ny fahoriana rehetra,
10 when one is declaring to me, saying, Behold, Saul is dead, and he was as a bearer of tidings in his own eyes, then I take hold on him, and slay him in Ziklag, instead of my giving to him [for] the tidings.
ilay nanambara tamiko hoe: Indro, maty Saoly, ka nanao ny tenany ho mpitondra teny mahafaly, dia nohazoniko ka novonoiko tao Ziklaga, hanomezako azy ny valin’ ny teny mahafaly nentiny;
11 Also—when wicked men have slain the righteous man in his own house, on his bed; and now, do I not require his blood from your hand, and have taken you away from the earth?”
koa mainka raha misy olon-dratsy mamono lehilahy marina ao an-tranony eo am-pandriany; koa tsy hadiniko eo an-tananareo va ny ràny, ary tsy hofongorako tsy ho amin’ ny tany intsony va ianareo
12 And David commands the young men, and they slay them, and cut off their hands and their feet, and hang [them] over the pool in Hebron, and they have taken the head of Ish-Bosheth, and bury [it] in the burying-place of Abner in Hebron.
Ary Davida nandidy ny zatovony, dia namono azy ireo, ka notapahiny ny tanany sy ny tongony, dia nahantony teo anilan’ ny kamory tao Hebrona. Fa ny lohan’ Isboseta kosa dia nentina ka nalevina tao am-pasan’ i Abnera tao Hebrona.
