2 Samuel 18
1 And David numbered the people that were with him, and set captains of thousands and captains of hundreds over them.
Binilang ni David dagiti soldado a kaduana ket nangdutok kadagiti kapitan ti rinibribu ken kadagiti kapitan ti ginasot a mangituray kadakuada.
2 And David sent forth the people, a third part under the hand of Joab, and a third part under the hand of Abishai the son of Zeruiah, Joab’s brother, and a third part under the hand of Ittai the Gittite. And the king said unto the people, I will surely go forth with you myself also.
Ket imbaon ni David dagiti armada, kakatlo ti adda iti babaen iti panangituray ni Joab, ti sabali a kakatlo ket adda iti babaen iti panangituray ni Abisai a putot a lalaki ni Zeruyas a kabsat a lalaki ni Joab, ken ti sabali manen a kakatlo iti adda iti babaen iti panangituray ni Ittai a Geteo. Kinuna ti ari iti armada, “Kumuyogak met kadakayo.
3 But the people said, Thou shalt not go forth: for if we flee away, they will not care for us; neither if half of us die, will they care for us: but thou art worth ten thousand of us: therefore now it is better that thou be ready to succour us out of the city.
Ngem kinuna dagiti lallaki, “Saankan a masapul nga umay iti gubatan, ta no aglibaskami awan bibiangda kadakami, wenno no matay ti kagudua kadakami awan bibiangda. Ngem sangapulo a ribu kadakami iti kaibatogam! Ngarud, nasaysayaat a nakasaganaka a mangtulong kadakami manipud iti siudad.”
4 And the king said unto them, What seemeth you best I will do. And the king stood by the gate side, and all the people went out by hundreds and by thousands.
Simmungbat ngarud ti ari kadakuada, “Aramidekto ti aniaman a kasasayaatan para kadakayo.” Nagtakder ti ari iti abay ti ruangan ti siudad bayat iti irurruar dagiti amin nga armada a ginasot ken rinibribu.
5 And the king commanded Joab and Abishai and Ittai, saying, Deal gently for my sake with the young man, even with Absalom. And all the people heard when the king gave all the captains charge concerning Absalom.
Binilin ti ari da Joab, Abisai ken Ittai a kunana, “Ipagpagapoyo kaniak ket makilangenlangenkayo a nasayaat iti agtutubo, kenni Absalom.” Nangngeg amin dagiti tattao ti ari nga imbilinna kadagiti kapitan daytoy maipapan kenni Absalom.
6 So the people went out into the field against Israel: and the battle was in the forest of Ephraim.
Isu a napan dagiti armada iti away a makigubat iti Israel; nagsaknap ti gubat iti kabakiran ti Efraim.
7 And the people of Israel were smitten there before the servants of David, and there was a great slaughter there that day of twenty thousand men.
Naparmek sadiay dagiti armada ti Israel iti sangoanan dagiti soldado ni David; adu ti napapatay sadiay iti dayta nga aldaw ket duapulo a ribu a tattao ti napapatay.
8 For the battle was there spread over the face of all the country: and the forest devoured more people that day than the sword devoured.
Nagsaknap ti gubat iti entero nga away, ket ad-adu a tattao ti natay iti kabakiran ngem babaen iti kampilan.
9 And Absalom chanced to meet the servants of David. And Absalom rode upon his mule, and the mule went under the thick boughs of a great oak, and his head caught hold of the oak, and he was taken up between the heaven and the earth; and the mule that was under him went on.
Nairana a nasabat ni Absalom dagiti sumagmamano kadagiti soldado ni David. Nakasakay ni Absalom iti mulona, ket napan ti mulo iti sirok iti nasamek a sangsanga ti dakkel a kayo ti lugo, ket naisalat ti ulona kadagiti sangsanga ti kayo. Nabati isuna nga agbitbitin iti nagbaetan ti daga ken ti tangatang bayat iti panagtultuloy ti pagsaksakayanna a mulo.
10 And a certain man saw it, and told Joab, and said, Behold, I saw Absalom hanging in an oak.
Adda nakita iti daytoy ket imbagana kenni Joab, “Adtoy, nakitak ni Absalom nga agbitbitin iti kayo ti lugo!”
11 And Joab said unto the man that told him, And behold, thou sawest it, and why didst thou not smite him there to the ground? and I would have given thee ten [pieces of] silver, and a girdle.
Kinuna ni Joab iti lalaki a nangibaga kenkuana iti maipanggep kenni Absalom, “Adtoy! Nakitam isuna! Apay a saanmo a pinatay isuna nga intinnag iti daga? Ikkanka koman iti sangapulo a siklo ti pirak ken maysa a barikes.”
12 And the man said unto Joab, Though I should receive a thousand [pieces of] silver in mine hand, yet would I not put forth mine hand against the king’s son: for in our hearing the king charged thee and Abishai and Ittai, saying, Beware that none touch the young man Absalom.
Simmungbat ti lalaki kenni Joab, “Uray pay makaawatak iti sangaribu a siklo ti pirak, saankonto latta nga iyunnat ti imak a maibusor iti anak ti ari, gapu ta nangngegmi amin ti panangbilin ti ari kenka, Abisai, ken ni Ittai, a kunana, 'Awan ti siasinoman a mangsagid ti agtutubo a ni Absalom.'
13 Otherwise if I had dealt falsely against his life, (and there is no matter hid from the king, ) then thou thyself wouldest have stood aloof.
No impustak man ti biagko gapu iti inuulbod (ket awan ti mailimed iti ari), baybay-andakto met laeng.”
14 Then said Joab, I may not tarry thus with thee. And he took three darts in his hand, and thrust them through the heart of Absalom, while he was yet alive in the midst of the oak.
Ket kinuna ni Joab, “Saanka nga urayenen.” Isu a nangala ni Joab iti tallo a gayang ket induyokna dagitoy iti puso ni Absalom, kabayatan a sibibiag pay laeng isuna ken agbitbitin iti lugo.
15 And ten young men that bare Joab’s armour compassed about and smote Absalom, and slew him.
Ket pinalawlawan dagiti sangapulo nga agtutubo a nangawit kadagiti kalasag ni Joab ni Absalom, dinarupda isuna, ket pinapatayda isuna.
16 And Joab blew the trumpet, and the people returned from pursuing after Israel: for Joab held back the people.
Kalpasanna pinuyotan ni Joab ti trumpeta, ket nagsubli ti armada manipud iti panangkamkamatda iti Israel, ta pinagsubli ni Joab ti armada.
17 And they took Absalom, and cast him into the great pit in the forest, and raised over him a very great heap of stones: and all Israel fled every one to his tent.
Innalada ni Absalom ket impuruakda isuna iti dakkel nga abut iti kabakiran; impunponda ti bangkayna iti sirok ti dakkel a penpen dagiti batbato, kabayatan a naglibas amin ti Israel, tunggal tao iti pagtaenganna.
18 Now Absalom in his life time had taken and reared up for himself the pillar, which is in the king’s dale: for he said, I have no son to keep my name in remembrance: and he called the pillar after his own name: and it is called Absalom’s monument, unto this day.
Ita ni Absalom, kabayatan a sibibiag pay laeng, ket nangipatakder iti dakkel nga adigi a bato idiay Tanap ti Ari, ta kinunana, “Awananak iti anak a lalaki a mangitandudo iti pakalaglagipan ti naganko.” Impanaganna iti adigi ti naganna, isu a naawagan iti Baton-lagip ni Absalom aginggana iti daytoy nga aldaw.
19 Then said Ahimaaz the son of Zadok, Let me now run, and bear the king tidings, how that the LORD hath avenged him of his enemies.
Ket kinuna ni Ahimaas a putot ni Zadok, “Palubosandak nga agtaray itan a mapan mangipakaammo ti naimbag a damag iti ari, no kasano nga inispal ni Yahweh isuna manipud kadagiti kabusorna.”
20 And Joab said unto him, Thou shalt not be the bearer of tidings this day, but thou shalt bear tidings another day: but this day thou shalt bear no tidings, because the king’s son is dead.
Simmungbat ni Joab kenkuana, “Saan a sika ti mapan mangibaga ti damag ita nga aldaw; masapul nga aramidem daytoy iti sabali nga aldaw. Awan ti maibagam a damag ita gapu ta natay ti anak ti ari.”
21 Then said Joab to the Cushite, Go tell the king what thou hast seen. And the Cushite bowed himself unto Joab, and ran.
Kalpasanna kinuna ni Joab iti maysa a Cusita, “Mapanmo ibaga iti ari no ania ti nakitam.” Nagkurno ti Cusita kenni Joab, ket nagtaray.
22 Then said Ahimaaz the son of Zadok yet again to Joab, But come what may, let me, I pray thee, also run after the Cushite. And Joab said, Wherefore wilt thou run, my son, seeing that thou wilt have no reward for the tidings?
Ket kinuna manen ni Ahimaas na putot a lalaki ni Zadok kenni Joab, “Uray ania ti mapasamak, pangaasim ta pagtarayendak met ket surotek ti Cusita.” Simmungbat ni Joab, “Apay a kayatmo ti mapan, anakko, makitam met nga awanto ti magungonam gapu iti damag?”
23 But come what may, [said he], I will run. And he said unto him, Run. Then Ahimaaz ran by the way of the Plain, and overran the Cushite.
“Aniaman ti mapasamak, kinuna ni Ahimaas, “Tumarayak.” Isu a sinungbatan ni Joab isuna, “Tumarayka.” Ket timmaray ni Ahimaaz iti dalan a kapatadan, ket inunaanna ti Cusita.
24 Now David sat between the two gates: and the watchman went up to the roof of the gate unto the wall, and lifted up his eyes, and looked, and, behold, a man running alone.
Ita, agtugtugaw ni David iti nagbaetan dagiti akin-uneg ken akinruar a pagserkan. Immuli ti agwanwanawan iti atep ti pagserkan nga agturong iti pader ket nagtannawag. Iti ikikitana, nakitana ti maysa a lalaki a sumungsungad nga agtartaray nga agmaymaysa
25 And the watchman cried, and told the king. And the king said, If he be alone, there is tidings in his mouth. And he came apace, and drew near.
Nagpukkaw ti agwanwanawan ket imbagana iti ari. Ket kinuna ti ari, “No is-isuna, adda ti damag iti ngiwatna.” Umasideg nga umasideg ti agtartaray ket nakaasidegen iti siudad.
26 And the watchman saw another man running: and the watchman called unto the porter, and said, Behold, [another] man running alone. And the king said, He also bringeth tidings.
Nakita manen ti agwanwanawan ti sabali a lalaki nga agtartaray, ket inayaban ti agwanwanawan ti agbanbantay iti pagserkan; kinunana, “Kitaem, adda manen iti sabali a lalaki nga agtartaray nga is-isuna.” Kinuna ti ari, “Umay met isuna mangyeg iti damag.”
27 And the watchman said, Me thinketh the running of the foremost is like the running of Ahimaaz the son of Zadok. And the king said, He is a good man, and cometh with good tidings.
Isu a kinuna ti agwanwanawan, “Ti ammok, ti panagtartaray ti lalaki iti sangoanan ket kasla iti panagtartaray ni Ahimaas a putot a lalaki ni Zadok.” Kinuna ti ari, “Naimbag isuna a tao ket um-umay nga addaan iti naimbag a damag.”
28 And Ahimaaz called, and said unto the king, All is well. And he bowed himself before the king with his face to the earth, and said, Blessed be the LORD thy God, which hath delivered up the men that lifted up their hand against my lord the king.
Kalpasanna immawag ni Ahimaas ket kinunana iti ari, “Nasayaat ti amin.” Ket nagkurno isuna iti sangoanan ti ari a nagdisso ti rupana iti daga ket kinunana, “Madaydayaw ni Yahweh a Diosmo, a nangipaima kadagiti tattao a nangilayat kadagiti imada a maibusor iti apok nga ari.”
29 And the king said, Is it well with the young man Absalom? And Ahimaaz answered, When Joab sent the king’s servant, even me thy servant, I saw a great tumult, but I knew not what it was.
Isu a simmungbat ti ari, “Nasayaat kadi ti kasasaad ti agtutubo a ni Absalom?” Simmungbat ni Ahimaas, “Idi imbaonnak ni Joab nga adipen ti ari kenka, apo ari, nakitak ti kasta unay a pannakariribuk, ngem saanko nga ammo no ania daydiay.”
30 And the king said, Turn aside, and stand here. And he turned aside, and stood still.
Ket kinuna ti ari, “Agpaigidka ket agtakderka ditoy.” Isu a nagpaigid ni Ahimaas, ket nagtakder a saan nga immal-alis.
31 And, behold, the Cushite came; and the Cushite said, Tidings for my lord the king: for the LORD hath avenged thee this day of all them that rose up against thee.
Kasangsangpet la unay ti Cusita ket kinunana, “Adda ti naimbag a damag para iti apok nga ari, ta imbalesnaka ni Yahweh ita manipud kadagiti amin nga immalsa a maibusor kenka.”
32 And the king said unto the Cushite, Is it well with the young man Absalom? And the Cushite answered, The enemies of my lord the king, and all that rise up against thee to do thee hurt, be as that young man is.
Ket kinuna ti ari iti Cusita, “Naimbag kadi ti sasaaden ti agtutubo a ni Absalom?” Insungbat ti Cusita, “Rumbeng koma a lak-amen dagiti kabusor ti apok nga ari, ken dagiti amin nga immalsa a maibusor kenka a mangdangran kenka, iti kas iti linak-am ti agtutubo.”
33 And the king was much moved, and went up to the chamber over the gate, and wept: and as he went, thus he said, O my son Absalom, my son, my son Absalom! would God I had died for thee, O Absalom, my son, my son!
Ket kasta unay ti panagpulkok ti ari, ket immuli isuna iti siled iti ngatoen ti pagserkan ket nagsangit. Iti ipapanna ket nagladingit, “Anakko nga Absalom, anakko, anakko nga Absalom! Siak la koman iti natay a saan a sika, Absalom, anakko, anakko!”
