2 Samuel 14
1 When Joab the son of Zeruiah perceived that the king's heart longed for Absalom,
Joab el etu lah Tokosra David el asor yohk kacl Absalom,
2 he sent to Tekoa and brought a wise woman from there, and said to her, "Please pretend to be a mourner, and put on mourning clothing, and do not anoint yourself with oil, but behave as a woman who has been mourning for the dead a long time.
ouinge el sapla nu sin sie mutan ma etu nunak su muta in acn Tekoa. Ke mutan sac tuku, Joab el fahk nu sel, “Oru lumom in mu kom asor. Nokomang nuknuk in asor, ac nimet kawiya sifom. Oru oana sie mutan su muta asor pacl na loeloes.
3 Go in to the king and say this to him." Then Joab told her what to say.
Na kom som nu yorol tokosra ac fahk nu sel ma nga ac fahk nu sum uh.” Na Joab el fahkang nu sel ma elan tuh fahk.
4 And the woman of Tekoa went to the king, and she bowed down with her face to the ground and showed respect, and said, "Help, O king."
Mutan sac som nu yorol tokosra ac srimi nwe infohk ah in akfulatyal, ac fahk, “O tokosra, kasreyu!”
5 And the king said to her, "What is your trouble?" And she replied, "Truly I am a widow, and my husband is dead.
Tokosra el siyuk sel, “Mea kom lungse?” Ac mutan sac fahk, “Leum luk, mukul tumuk ah misa, ac inge nga mukaimtalla.
6 And your servant had two sons, and they both fought together in the field, and there was no one to separate them, and one struck the other and killed him.
Tuh oasr wen luo nutik, na sie len ah eltal akukuinla in ima ah, ac wangin mwet in eisaltalelik, na sie seltal uniya ma se ngia.
7 Look, the whole family has risen against your servant, and they say, 'Give us the man who struck his brother, that we may kill him for the life of his brother whom he killed.' Thus they would eliminate also the heir and the one ember I have left will be extinguished, and would leave to my husband neither name nor remnant on the face of the earth.
Ac inge sou luk nukewa ngetla likiyu, ac kwafe ngan sang wen se lula nutik inge nu selos elos in unilya ke sripen el uniya tamulel lal ah. Elos fin oru ma se inge, na ac wanginla wen nutik. Elos ac kunausla finsrak safla se luk, ac oru tuh in wanginla tulik in us inen mukul tumuk ah nwe tok.”
8 Now therefore seeing that I have come to speak this word to the king, my lord, it is because the people have made me afraid: and your servant said, 'I will now speak to the king; it may be that the king will perform the request of his servant.'
Tokosra el topuk, “Folokla nu lohm sum, ac nga ac fah fosrngakin elya sac.”
9 For the king will hear and deliver his servant out of the hand of the man who is seeking to destroy me and my son together out of the inheritance of the LORD.
Na mutan sac fahk, “Leum luk, kutena ma kom ac oru, nga ac sou luk ac fah eis mwata. Ac fah wangin ma sufal lom ac sou fulat lom kac.”
10 Then your servant said, 'Please let the word of my lord the king bring rest; for as an angel of God, so is my lord the king to discern good and bad. May the LORD, your God, be with you.'"
Ac tokosra el topuk, “Fin oasr kutena mwet aksangengye kom, kom usalu nu sik, ac el ac fah tia ku in sifilpa aklokoalokye kom.”
11 Then the king said, "Go to your house, and I will give a command concerning you."
Mutan sac fahk, “Leum luk, nunak munas pre nu sin LEUM GOD lom, tuh mwet se in sou luk su akoeyuk foloksak ke misa lun wen nutik ah in tia akyokye ma koluk lal ke el uniya pac wen se lula nutik inge.” David el topuk, “Nga wulela ke Inen LEUM GOD moul, lah wanginna ma koluk ac fah sun wen nutum an.”
12 The woman of Tekoa said to the king, "My lord, O king, the iniquity be on me, and on my father's house; and the king and his throne be guiltless."
Ac mutan sac sifilpa fahk, “Nunak munas, leum fulat, oasr ma sefanna lula nga lungse fahk nu sum.” Na David el fahk, “Kwal, fahk.”
13 The king said, "Whoever says anything to you, bring him to me, and he shall not touch you any more."
Na mutan sac fahk nu sel, “Efu ku kom orala sie tafongla na yohk nu sin mwet lun God, ke kom tia fuhlela tuh wen nutum sifacna in foloko liki sruoh? Ke ma inge kom sifacna tukakin tafongla lom ke ma kom fahk ingena ah.
14 Then she said, "Please let the king remember the LORD your God, that the avenger of blood destroy not any more, lest they destroy my son." He said, "As the LORD lives, not one hair of your son shall fall to the ground."
Kut nukewa ac misa. Kut oana kof kahkla nu fin fohk uh ma tia ku in sifil orekeni. Finne God sifacna, El tia folokonma mwet misa nu ke moul. Tusruktu tokosra se el ku in konauk inkanek in folokonma sie mwet liki sruoh.
15 Then the woman said, "Please let your servant speak a word to my lord the king." He said, "Say on."
Inge, leum fulat, sripa se pwanang nga tuku in sramsram nu sum uh pa ke mwet uh aksangengyeyu. Na pa nga fahk nu sik sifacna mu nga ac sramsram nu sum, mweyen nga finsrak na mu kom ac oru ma nga siyuk sum uh.
16 The woman said, "Why then have you devised such a thing against the people of the LORD? For in speaking this word the king is as one who is guilty, in that the king does not bring home again his exiled one.
Nga tuh etu na lah kom ku in lohng ma nga siyuk, ac moliyula liki sie su srike in uniyuwi ac wen nutik ac siskutla liki facl se su God El sang nu sin mwet lal.
17 For your son is dead, and as water spilled on the ground can't be gathered up again, so he can't bring his life back again. But it seems sensible to the king to keep his exiled one away from him."
Nga nunku sik sifacna mu wulela lom ac oru tuh nga in moul ac tia sensen, mweyen tokosra el oana sie lipufan lun God, su ku in akilen inmasrlon ma wo ac ma koluk. Lela LEUM GOD Elan wi kom!”
18 Then the king answered and said to the woman, "Please do not hide from me anything that I ask you." And the woman said, "Let my lord the king speak."
Tokosra el fahk, “Nga ac siyuk kusen siyuk se sum, ac kom fahkma ma na pwaye an.” Ac mutan sac fahk, “Leum luk, kom ku in siyuk ma nukewa kom ke siyuk an.”
19 So the king said, "Did Joab put you up to all this?" The woman answered, "As your soul lives, my lord the king, no one can turn to the right hand or to the left from anything that my lord the king has said. Indeed, it was your servant Joab who had me do this, and he put all these words in the mouth of your servant.
Na David el siyuk sel, “Ku Joab pa sap kom in fahk ma ingan uh?” Na el topuk, “Leum luk, nga fulahk ke ma mutal nukewa, lah wangin inkanek nga in ku in kaingkunla mwe siyuk lom an. Ma na pwaye se lah Joab, captain lom an, pa fahk nu sik ma ngan oru ac ma ngan fahk.
20 Your servant Joab did this in order to change this situation. But my lord has wisdom like the wisdom of an angel of God for knowing things in the land."
Tuh el oru in aksuwosyela nufon fohs se inge. Leum fulat luk, kom arulana lalmwetmet oana lipufan lun God, su etu ma nukewa ma sikyak.”
21 Then the king said to Joab, "Look now, I have done according to your word. Go, bring back the young man Absalom."
Tok kutu, tokosra el fahk nu sel Joab, “Nga sulela mu nga ac oru ma kom lungse an. Fahla ac folokunulma Absalom nu yenu.”
22 Then Joab bowed down with his face toward the ground, and blessed the king. And Joab said, "Today your servant knows that I have found favor in your sight, my lord the king, in that the king has granted the request of his servant."
Joab el putati nu infohk uh ye mutal David in akfulatyal, ac fahk, “Leum fulat, God Elan akinsewowoye kom! Inge nga etu lah kom insewowo sik, mweyen kom ase nu sik enenu luk uh.”
23 So Joab arose and went to Geshur, and brought Absalom to Jerusalem.
Na el tuyak ac som nu Geshur, ac usalu Absalom nu Jerusalem.
24 The king said, "He must return to his own house, but he must not see my face." So Absalom returned to his own house, and did not see the king's face.
Tusruktu tokosra el fahk mu Absalom elan tia muta inkul sin tokosra. El fahk, “Nga tia lungse liyal.” Ouinge Absalom el muta in lohm sel sifacna, ac tiana sikyak nu ye mutun tokosra.
25 Moreover, Absalom – in Israel no one was so much admired as he for his fine appearance. From the sole of his foot even to the crown of his head there was no blemish in him.
Wangin sie mwet in acn Israel nufon pwengpeng ke oasku lal oana Absalom. Wanginna kutu ma koluk ke manol, insifali nwe ke kufinnial.
26 When he cut the hair of his head – now it was at the end of every year that he cut it, because it became too heavy, therefore he cut it – he weighed the hair of his head at one hundred shekels by the king's weight.
Aunsifal matol, ac el muta kalkul pacl se ke yac se ke sripen ac arulana loes ac toasr. Fin pauni ac oasr ke paun limekosr ma, fal nu ke srikasrak lun mwet leum uh.
27 To Absalom there were born three sons, and one daughter, whose name was Tamar. She was a beautiful woman.
Oasr wen tolu natul Absalom, ac sie acn pangpang Tamar, su arulana kato.
28 Absalom lived two full years in Jerusalem; and he did not see the king's face.
Absalom el muta Jerusalem yac luo ac el tiana liyal tokosra.
29 Then Absalom sent for Joab, to send him to the king; but he would not come to him: and he sent again a second time, but he would not come.
Na el sapla solal Joab elan som nu yurin tokosra kacl, tuh Joab el tiana tuku. Absalom el sifilpa solal, a Joab el tiana lungse tuku.
30 Therefore he said to his servants, "Look, Joab's field is near mine, and he has barley there. Go and set it on fire." Absalom's servants set the field on fire. And the servants of Joab came to him with their clothes rent, and they said to him, "The servants of Absalom have set the field on fire."
Ke ma inge, Absalom el fahk nu sin mwet kulansap lal, “Liye, ima se lal Joab pa sisken ima luk ah, ac barley pa kapak kac. Fahla esukak.” Na elos som esukak ima sac.
31 Then Joab arose, and came to Absalom to his house, and said to him, "Why have your servants set my field on fire?"
Joab el som nu lohm sel Absalom, ac siyuk, “Efu ku mwet kulansap lom ah esukak ima luk ah?”
32 And Absalom answered Joab, "Look, I sent to you, saying, 'Come here, that I may send you to the king, to say, "Why have I come from Geshur? It would be better for me if I were still there. Now therefore let me appear before the king. If I am guilty, put me to death.'"
Na Absalom el fahk, “Mweyen kom tia tuku ke nga sapla suli kom. Nga tuh ke kom in som nu yorol tokosra ac siyuk kas inge keik: ‘Efu ku nga tuh tuyak liki acn Geshur ac tuku nu yenu? Nga funu mutana we lukun wo liki.’” Na Absalom el sifilpa fahk, “Nga ke kom in sakunla in oasr pacl luk yurin tokosra. Fin oasr ma koluk luk, na lela elan uniyuwi.”
33 So Joab went to the king and told him, and he summoned Absalom. And he came to the king and bowed himself with his face to the ground before the king, and the king kissed Absalom.
Ouinge Joab el som nu yurin Tokosra David ac fahkang nu sel ma Absalom el fahk ah. Na tokosra el sapla solal Absalom, ac Absalom el som nu yorol ac srimi nwe infohk ah ye mutal. Ac tokosra el paingul ac ngok mutal.
