< 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.
Iish-Booshet ilmi Saaʼol yommuu akka Abneer Kebroonitti ajjeefame dhagaʼetti humni isaa ni buʼe; Israaʼel hundis sodaan guutame.
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,
Yeroo sanatti Iish-Booshet ilmi Saaʼol dura buutota garee duultotaa lama qaba ture. Inni tokko Baʼanaa, kaan immoo Rekaab jedhama ture; isaanis ilmaan Rimoon namicha Biʼeeroot kan gosa Beniyaam sanaa ti; Biʼeeroot kun akka kutaa Beniyaamitti lakkaaʼama;
3 and the Beerothites flee to Gittaim, and are sojourners there to this day.
namoonni Biʼeeroot kunneen gara Gitayimitti baqatanii hamma harʼaatti alagummaan achi jiraatuutii.
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.
Yoonaataan ilmi Saaʼol mucaa miilli isaa lachuu naafate tokko qaba ture. Yeroo oduun waaʼee Saaʼolii fi Yoonaataan Yizriʼeel irraa dhufetti inni nama waggaa shanii ture. Guddiftuun isaas isa fudhattee baqatte; garuu utuu isheen baqachuuf ariifattuu mucichi ishee irraa kufee naafate. Maqaan isaas Mefiibooshet jedhama ture.
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;
Rekaabii fi Baʼanaan ilmaan Rimoon namicha gosa Biʼeeroot kaʼanii gara mana Iish-Boosheti qajeelan; yeroon isaan itti achi gaʼanis guyyaa saafaa yeroo inni itti aara galfatu ture.
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;
Isaanis akka nama qamadii barbaaduutti kutaa manaa isa gara keessaatti ol seenanii garaa isaa waraanan. Ergasiis Rekaabii fi obboleessi isaa Baʼanaan miliqanii baʼan.
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,
Isaanis utuu inni kutaa ciisichaa keessa siree isaa irra rafee jiruu ol seenan. Erga garaa isaa waraananii isa ajjeesanii booddees mataa isaa irraa kutan. Mataa sanas fuudhanii halkan guutuu daandii Arabbaa irra deemaa bulan.
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.”
Isaanis Kebroonitti mataa Iish-Booshet gara Daawit mootichaa fidanii, “Kunoo mataa Iish-Booshet ilma diina kee Saaʼol kan ilma namicha si ajjeesuu barbaadu sanaa. Harʼa Waaqayyo Saaʼolii fi sanyii isaa illee gooftaa koo mootichaaf haaloo baaseera” jedhaniin.
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,
Daawit immoo Rekaabii fi obboleessa isaa Baʼanaa, ilmaan Rimoonii namicha gosa Biʼeerootaa sanaan akkana jedhe; “Dhugaa Waaqayyo jiraataa isa rakkina hunda jalaa na baase sanaa,
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.
kunoo ani namicha waan oduu gaarii naa fide seʼee, ‘Saaʼol duʼeera’ jedhee natti hime sana qabee Siiqlaagitti ajjeeseera. Egaa wanni ani namicha oduu sana fide badhaase kana dha!
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?”
Yoos yeroo namoonni hamooni nama balleessaa hin qabne tokko mana isaa keessatti, siree isaa irratti ajjeesanitti ani dhiiga isaa harka keessan irraa hin barbaaduu ree? Lafa irraas hin balleessuu ree?”
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.
Kanaafuu Daawit namoota isaa ajaje; isaanis jara ajjeesan. Harkaa fi miilla isaanii irraa kukkutanii haroo Kebroon biratti reeffa isaanii fannisan. Mataa Iish-Booshet garuu fuudhanii Kebroonitti awwaala Abneer biratti awwaalan.
