2 Samuel 20
1 Now there happened to be a worthless man, whose name was Sheba, the son of Bikri, a Benjamite. And he blew the trumpet, and said, "We have no share in David, nor do we have any inheritance in the son of Jesse. Every man to his tents, Israel."
Ary sendra nisy lehilahy iray tena ratsy fanahy teo, Seba no anarany, zanak’ i Bikry Benjamita; ary nitsoka ny anjomara izy sady niantso hoe: Isika tsy manana anjara amin’ i Davida na lova amin’ ny zanak’ i Jese; samia mody any amin’ ny lainy avy, ry Isiraely ô.
2 So all Israel deserted David and followed Sheba the son of Bikri, but the men of Judah stayed by their king, from the Jordan to Jerusalem.
Ka dia samy niara-nandao an’ i Davida ny lehilahy amin’ ny Isiraely ka nanaraka an’ i Seba, zanak’ i Bikry; fa ny lehilahy amin’ ny Joda no nifikitra tamin’ ny mpanjakany hatrany Jordana ka hatrany Jerosalema.
3 Then David came to his palace at Jerusalem, and the king took the ten women his secondary wives, whom he had left to keep the palace, and placed them under guard, and provided for them, but did not go in to them. So they were kept in confinement until the day of their death, living as widows.
Ary nony tonga tao an-tranony tany Jerosalema Davida mpanjaka, dia nalainy ny vaditsindranony folo vavy izay navelany hiandry trano tao, ka nataony tao an-trano fiambenana ary nomeny fivelomana, fa tsy nandriany intsony. Ka dia nambenana tao mandra-pahafatiny ireo ka velona tsy nanam-bady intsony.
4 Then the king said to Amasa, "Summon the men of Judah to me within three days, and be present here yourself."
Ary hoy ny mpanjaka tamin’ i Amasa: Vorio ny lehilahy amin’ ny Joda ho eto amiko amin’ ny hateloana, ary aoka mba ho eto koa ny tenanao.
5 So Amasa went to summon Judah together, but he delayed beyond the set time that had been allotted him.
Ary dia lasa Arnasa namory ny Joda, fa nandiso ny fotoan’ andro nomeny azy izy.
6 David said to Abishai, "Now Sheba the son of Bikri will do us more harm than Absalom did. Now then, take your lord's servants with you and pursue after him, otherwise he will get himself to fortified cities and escape from us."
Ary hoy Davida tamin’ i Abisay: Ankehitriny izao dia Seba, zanak’ i Bikry no ahitantsika loza mihoatra noho Absaloma; koa ento ny mpanomponao ny tomponao, ka enjeho izy, fandrao mahazo tanàna mimanda ka tsy ho azontsika.
7 So there went out after him Joab's men and the Cherethites and the Pelethites, and all the warriors. And they went out from Jerusalem to pursue Sheba son of Bikri.
Ary dia nivoaka hanenjika azy ny olon’ i Joaba sy ny miaramila mpiambina andriana ary ny lehilahy mahery rehetra; dia nivoaka avy tany Jerosalema ireo hanenjika an’ i Seba, zanak’ i Bikry.
8 When they were at the great stone that is in Gibeon, Amasa came to meet them. And Joab was wearing his military attire, and over it was a belt with a dagger in its sheath fastened at his waist, and as he advanced it fell out.
Fa nony tonga tao amin’ ilay vato lehibe tao Gibeona izy, dia avy Amasa nitsena azy; ary ny akanjo fiadian’ i Joaba, ilay niakanjoany, dia nofehezina taminy, ary teo amboniny teo am-balahany no nisy ny fehin-tsabany ambamin’ ny tranony; ary nony nandeha izy, dia latsaka ny sabatra.
9 And Joab said to Amasa, "Is it well with you, my brother?" Then Joab took Amasa by the beard with his right hand to kiss him.
Ary hoy Joaba tamin’ i Amasa: Tsara ihany va ianao, ry rahalahy? Dia noraisin’ i Joaba tamin’ ny tànany ankavanana ny somotr’ i Amasa horohany.
10 But Amasa did not notice the sword that was in Joab's hand. And he stabbed him with it in the abdomen, so that his intestines spilled out on the ground, and he did not do it to him again. Thus he died. Then Joab and Abishai his brother pursued Sheba son of Bikri.
Fa Amasa tsy nanahinahy ny sabatra teny an-tànan’ i Joaba, kanjo nasiany tamin’ ny kibony izy, ka dia nivaroraka tamin’ ny tany ny tsinainy, ary tsy nasiany intsony, fa matiny tamin’ izay. Ary Joaba sy Abisay rahalahiny nanenjika an’ i Seba, zanak’ i Bikry.
11 And one of Joab's young men stood beside Amasa and said, "Whoever is the one that favors Joab and whoever belongs to David, follow Joab."
Ary ny zatovon’ i Joaba anankiray nijanona teo anilan’ ny faty ka nanao hoe: Izay miandany amin’ i Joaba sy Davida dia aoka hanaraka an’ i Joaba.
12 But Amasa lay covered with his blood in the midst of the road, and anyone who came by, seeing him, stopped. So when the man saw that all the people stopped, he dragged Amasa from the road into a field and threw a garment over him.
Ary Amasa nihosin-drà teo anaty lalambe. Ary raha hitan-dralehilahy fa nijanona ny olona rehetra, dia nafindrany niala teo amin’ ny lalambe ho any an-tsaha ny fatin’ i Amasa ka nosaronany lamba, nony hitany fa nijanona izay rehetra mandalo azy.
13 When he was removed from the road, all the people followed Joab in pursuit of Sheba son of Bikri.
Ary nony nafindrany niala teo amin’ ny lalambe izy, dia nizotra nanaraka an’ i Joaba ny olona rehetra hanenjika an’ i Seba, zanak’ i Bikry.
14 He went through all the tribes of Israel to Abel of Beth Maacah, and all the Bikrites assembled and followed him.
Ary izy nandeha namaky ny firenen’ Isiraely rehetra hatrany Abela sy Beti-maka sy ny an’ ny Berita rehetra; ary nivory ireo, ka dia mba lasa nanaraka azy.
15 And all the people who were with Joab came and besieged him in Abel of Beth Maacah. And they built a siege ramp against the city, and it stood against the rampart, and they were battering the wall so that it would collapse.
Ary dia tonga izy ka nanao fahirano azy teo Abela sy Beti-maka, ary nanandratra tovon-tany tandrifin’ ny tanàna izy, ka teo ivelany manolotra ny manda no nitoerany; ary ny olona izay nomba an’ i Joaba dia namely nandrava ny manda.
16 Then a wise woman called out from the wall, "Listen, listen. Please tell Joab to come here so that I may speak to him.
Ary nisy vehivavy hendry tao an-tanàna niantso hoe: Mihainoa, mihainoa e; masìna ianareo, lazao amin’ i Joaba hoe: Mankanesa erỳ aminy, hono, ianao, fa misy holazainy aminao.
17 So he approached her, and the woman said, "Are you Joab?" And he replied, "I am." Then she said, "Listen to the words of your servant." And he replied, "I'm listening."
Ary nony efa mby tao akaiky izy, dia hoy ravehivavy: Hianao va no Joaba? Dia hoy izy: Eny, izaho no izy. Ary hoy ravehivavy taminy: Mihainoa ny teniko mpanompovavinao. Dia hoy izy: Mihaino aho izao.
18 Then she said, "In the past they used to say, 'Let them inquire in Abel and in Dan whether
Ary hoy ravehivavy: Izao no fitenin’ ny olona taloha: Aoka hanadina ao Abela izy; koa araka izany ny nahavitany raharaha.
19 that which the faithful of Israel established has been carried out.' You seek to destroy a city that is a mother in Israel. Why do you want to swallow up the inheritance of the LORD?"
Izaho dia isan’ ny tia fihavanana sady olona mahatoky eto amin’ ny Isiraely; fa ianao kosa mitady handrava renivohitra eto amin’ ny. Isiraely, koa ahoana no hamongoranao ny lovan’ i Jehovah?
20 Joab answered, "Far be it from me that I should swallow up or destroy.
Ary Joaba namaly hoe: Sanatria dia sanatria amiko izay handripaka sy handringana.
21 That is not the case. But a man of the hill country of Ephraim, Sheba the son of Bikri, has rebelled against king David. Give up him alone and I will withdraw from the city." Then the woman said to Joab, "Look, his head will be thrown to you from the wall."
Tsy izany tsy akory; fa misy lehilahy avy amin’ ny tany havoan’ i Efraima, Seba no anarany, zanak’ i Bikry, izay efa nanainga tanana hikomy amin’ i Davida mpanjaka; koa izy ihany no atolory ahy, dia hiala amin’ ny tanàna aho. Ary hoy ravehivavy tamin’ i Joaba: Indro, ny lohany atsipy eny aminao eny ankoatry ny manda.
22 Then she spoke to all the city with her wise advice, and they cut off the head of Sheba son of Bikri and threw it out to Joab. So he blew the trumpet, and they were dispersed from him, each returning to his home. And Joab went back to Jerusalem to the king.
Dia lasa nanatona ny olona rehetra tamin’ ny fahendreny ravehivavy. Dia notapahin’ ireo ny lohan’ i Seba, zanak’ i Bikry, ka natsipiny teny amin’ i Joaba. Ary Joaba nitsoka ny anjomara, ka dia niala tamin’ ny tanàna ny olona samy ho any amin’ ny lainy avy. Ary Joaba niverina nankany Jerosalema ho any amin’ ny mpanjaka.
23 Now Joab was in command of the entire army of Israel; and Benaiah the son of Jehoiada was in command of the Cherethites and in command of the Pelethites;
Ary Joaba no komandin’ ny miaramila rehetra tamin’ ny Isiraely; ary Benaia, zanak’ i Joiada, no mpifehy ny miaramila mpiambina andriana;
24 and Adoniram was in command of the forced labor; and Jehoshaphat the son of Ahilud was recorder;
ary Adorama no komandin’ ny mpanao fanompoana; ary Josafata, zanak’ i Ahiloda, no mpitadidy ny raharaham-panjakana;
25 and Shisha was scribe; and Zadok and Abiathar were priests;
ary Seva no mpanoratra; ary Zadoka sy Abiatara no mpisorona;
26 and also Ira the Jairite was David's priest.
ary Ira Jairita kosa no mpanolo-tsaina an’ i Davida.
