< 2 Samuel 15 >
1 And it came to pass, after this, that Absolom prepared him chariots and horses, —and fifty men, to run before him.
Tukun ma inge Absalom el akoela chariot se ac horse ekasr nu sel sifacna, oayapa mwet lumngaul in atlol.
2 And Absolom used to rise up early, and take his stand beside the way of the gate, —and so it was—when any man who had a controversy would come unto the king for judgment, then Absalom called unto him, and said: Of what city, art, thou? And he said, Of one of the tribes of Israel, is thy servant. And Absolom said unto him,
El ac toang tukakek ac som tu pe inkanek ah ke mutunpot lun siti ah. Na pacl nukewa mwet se fin tuku in fahkak sie fohs ku alein ma el lungse tuh tokosra elan aksuwosye, na Absalom el ac pangonma mwet sac ac siyuk lah el tuku ya me. Tukun mwet sac el fahk lah el tuku ke sruf ya me,
3 See! thy cause, is good and right, —but, to hear it, thou hast no one, from the king.
na Absalom el ac fahk, “Liye, ma sap uh wi kom lac, tusruktu wangin aolyal tokosra in lohng ke tukak lom uh.”
4 And Absalom said, Oh would that I were appointed to judge in the land! that, unto me, might come every man having a complaint or a defence, then would I see him righted.
Ac el ac sifilpa fahk, “Saok ngan mwet nununku se! Lukun kutena mwet su oasr amei ku tukak yorol, ku in tuku nu yuruk ac nga sang nununku suwohs nu sel.”
5 Moreover, so it used to be, that, when any man came near to do him homage, he would put forth his hand, and lay hold of him, and kiss him.
Mwet sac fin kalukyang nu yorol Absalom in srimi ye mutal, na Absalom el ac saplakot sruokilya ac ngokya mutal.
6 And Absolom did, after this manner, to all Israel who came for judgment, unto the king, —so Absolom stole away the heart of the men of Israel.
Absalom el oru ouinge nu sin mwet Israel nukewa su tuku nu yurin tokosra in suk nununku suwohs, ouinge mwet nukewa insewowo sel.
7 And it came to pass, at the end of forty years, that Absolom said unto the king—Let me go, I pray thee, that I may pay my vow which I have vowed unto Yahweh, in Hebron;
Tukun yac akosr Absalom el fahk nu sel Tokosra David, “Leum luk, lela ngan som nu Hebron, ac akfalye wulela se nga wuleang nu sin LEUM GOD kac.
8 for thy servant vowed, a vow, while I abode in Geshur in Syria, saying, —If Yahweh, will but bring me back, unto Jerusalem, then will I serve Yahweh,
Ke pacl se nga muta in acn Geshur in acn Syria, nga tuh wulela nu sin LEUM GOD mu El fin folokinyula nu Jerusalem, nga ac alu nu sel in acn Hebron.”
9 And the king said unto him—Go and prosper! So he arose and went to Hebron.
Na tokosra el fahk, “Fahsr in misla.” Ouinge Absalom el som nu Hebron.
10 And Absolom sent spies throughout all the tribes of Israel, saying, —When ye hear the sound of the horn, then shall ye say, Absolom hath become king in Hebron!
Tusruktu el supwala mwet utuk kas nu sin sruf nukewa Israel in fahk, “Pacl se kowos lohngak pusren mwe ukuk uh, kowos sala ac fahk, ‘Absalom el tokosrala in acn Hebron!’”
11 And, with Absolom, went two hundred men, out of Jerusalem, who, having been bidden, were going in their simplicity, —neither knew they anything.
Absalom el tuh suli mwet luofoko in acn Jerusalem in welul som. Elos tiana etu ke pwapa lukma se el akoo — elos fahsrna ke sripen elos lulalfongel.
12 And Absalom sent and called Ahithophel the Gilonite, David’s counsellor, out of his city, out of Gilo, when he was offering sacrifices, —and so it was that the conspiracy was strong, and, the people, went on multiplying with Absolom.
Ke pacl Absalom el oru kisa lal, el supwala pac mwet nu in acn Gilo elos in solal Ahithophel, su sie sin mwet pwapa fulat lal Tokosra David. Pwapa se lal Absalom in lain tokosra inge kui, ac pisen mwet lal yokyokelik.
13 Then came one bearing tidings unto David, saying, —It hath come about, that the heart of the men of Israel goeth after Absolom.
Sie mwet utuk kas el som fahk nu sel David, “Mwet Israel elos wulela lah elos ac welulla Absalom.”
14 Then said David, to all his servants who were with him in Jerusalem—Arise and let us flee, or we shall have no way of escape from the face of Absolom, —make speed to depart, lest he make speed, and so overtake us, and bring down misfortune upon us, and smite the city with the edge of the sword.
Ouinge David el fahk nu sin mwet pwapa nukewa lal su welul muta Jerusalem, “Kut enenu in som liki acn Jerusalem ingena, kut fin lungse kaingla lukel Absalom! Aksaye! El akura tuku nu inge, kutangkutla ac uniya mwet nukewa in siti uh!”
15 And the king’s servants said unto the king, —According to all that my lord the king shall choose, here are thy servants.
Na elos fahk, “Aok, leum fulat lasr. Kut akola in oru ma nukewa kom fahk.”
16 So the king went forth, with all his household attending him, —but the king left ten women who were concubines, to keep the house.
Na tokosra el mukuila wi sou lal nukewa, ac mwet pwapa lal, sayen mutan kulansap singoul kial ma el filiya in karingin lohm sin tokosra.
17 Thus then the king went forth, with all the people attending him, —and they came to a stand at a place that was far off.
Ke tokosra ac mwet lal nukewa som liki siti uh, elos tui ke lohm se safla.
18 And, all his servants, were passing on beside him, and all the Cherethites, and all the Pelethites, —and, all the Gittites—six hundred men, who had accompanied him from Gath, —were passing on before the king.
Mwet pwapa lal nukewa elos tu siskal ke mwet mweun karinginyal elos fahsr ye mutal. Mwet mweun onfoko ma welulma liki acn Gath elos oayapa fahla ye mutal.
19 Then said the king, unto Ittai the Gittite, Wherefore shouldest, thou also, go with us? return and abide with the king, for, a stranger, art thou, moreover also, an exile, art thou from thine own country.
Ac tokosra el fahk nu sel Ittai, mwet kol lun mwet Gath inge, “Efu ku kom wi kut som? Folokla muta yurin tokosra sasu sac. Kom sie mwetsac ac kom kaingla liki facl sum sifacna.
20 Only yesterday, camest thou, and, today, shall I let thee wander with us, on our journey, seeing that, I, am going, whithersoever I may? Return and take back thy brethren with thee, and may Yahweh deal with thee in lovingkindness and faithfulness.
Kom tufahna tuku muta yenu kitin pacl na, na efu ku ngan lela kom in wiyu forfor? Nga sifacna, nga tia etu lah nga ac som nu ya. Folokla, ac us mwet lom ingan in wi kom. Lela LEUM GOD Elan kulang ac pwaye nu suwos.”
21 But Ittai answered the king, and said, —By the life of Yahweh, and by the life of my lord the king, surely, in whatsoever place, my lord the king, may be, whether for death or for life, there will, thy servant, be.
A Ittai el topuk, “Leum fulat, nga fulahk nu sum inen LEUM GOD lah yen nukewa kom forfor nu we, nga ac wi kom in pacl nukewa, finne nu ke misa.”
22 Then said David unto Ittai—Go, and pass on. So Ittai the Gittite passed on, with all his men, and all the little ones that were with him.
David el topuk, “Wona. Fahsr nu meet!” Na Ittai el fahsr nu meet wi mwet lal ac sou lalos nukewa.
23 And, fall the land, was weeping, with a loud voice, and, all the people, were passing on, —the king also, was passing on, through the torrent-bed of Kidron, and all the people were passing on over the face of the way leading to the wilderness.
Mwet uh tung ma lulap ke David ac mwet lal ah som. Tokosra el tupalla Infacl srisrik Kidron, ac mwet lal elos fahsr tokol. Na elos tukeni oatula in som nu yen mwesis.
24 And lo! Zadok also, and all the Levites with him, were bearing the ark of the covenant of God, and they set down the ark of God, and Abiathar went up, until all the people had made an end of passing over out of the city.
Zadok, mwet tol, el muta in acn sac, ac mwet Levi su us Tuptup in Wuleang elos muta pac yorol. Elos filiya tuptup sac ac tia sifil srukak nwe ke na mwet nukewa illa liki siti ah. Abiathar, mwet tol, el oasr pac we.
25 Then said the king unto Zadok, Take back the ark of God into the city, —if I find favour in the eyes of Yahweh, then will he bring me back, and let me see both him and his habitation,
Na tokosra el fahk nu sel Zadok, “Folokunla Tuptup in Wuleang uh nu in siti uh. LEUM GOD El fin insewowo sik, El ac fah lela nga in foloko ac liye, oayapa liye acn oan we uh.
26 but, if thus, he say, I have no delight in thee, here I am, let him do unto me as may be good in his eyes.
A El fin tia insewowo sik, lela Elan oru nu sik fal nu ke lungse lal.”
27 And the king said, unto Zadok the priest, Art thou not, a seer? return into the city, in peace, —and Ahimaaz thine own son, and Jonathan son of Abiathar—your two sons, with you.
Na el sifilpa fahk nu sel Zadok, “Usalla Ahimaaz wen nutum, ac Jonathan wen natul Abiathar, ac folokla nu in siti ah in misla.
28 See! I, am tarrying in the waste plains of the wilderness—until there come word from you, to tell me.
A nga ac muta soanekom ke acn in tupalla infacl uh ke yen mwesis, nwe ke na nga eis kas sum me.”
29 So Zadok and Abiathar took back the ark of God to Jerusalem, —and abode there.
Ouinge Zadok ac Abiathar us Tuptup in Wuleang folokla nu in Jerusalem ac mutana we.
30 Now, David, was going up by the ascent of Olivet, weeping as he went up, with his head covered, himself, passing on barefoot, —and all the people who were with him, covered every man his head, and went up, weeping as they went.
David el fahsryak nu Fineol Olive, ac el tung. El tia fahluk, ac el sunya sifal in akkalemye asor lal. Mwet nukewa su fahsr tokol elos afinya pac sifalos ac tung pac.
31 And, unto David, it was told, saying, Ahithophel, is among the conspirators with Absolom. And David said, Turn to foolishness, I pray thee, the counsel of Ahithophel, O Yahweh.
Ke fwackyang nu sel David lah Ahithophel el welulla Absalom ac elos su lainul, el pre ac fahk, “O LEUM GOD, nunak munas oru tuh kas in kasru lal Ahithophel in ekla kas lusrongten!”
32 And it came to pass, when David reached the summit, where he bowed himself down unto God, that lo! there met him, Hushai the Archite, his tunic rent, and earth upon his head.
Ke David el sun fin tohktok uh, acn se ma acn in alu se oan we, Hushai mwet Arch, kawuk se lal David su el lulalfongi yohk, el tuku sonol, ac nuknuk lal ah mihsalik, ac fohkfok oan fin sifal.
33 And David said unto him, —If thou pass over with me, then shalt thou become unto me, a burden;
Ac David el fahk nu sel, “Kom ac fah tia mwe kasru nu sik kom fin wiyu inge.
34 but, if, to the city, thou return, then canst thou say unto Absolom—Thy servant, I, O king, will be, as, the servant of thy father, I was formerly, so will I, now, be thy servant: thus shalt thou frustrate for me the counsel of Ahithophel.
Tusruktu kom ku in kasreyu kom fin folokla nu in siti ah, ac fahk nu sel Absalom lah inge kom ac kulansupal ke insiom na pwaye, oana ke kom tuh kulansupu papa tumal. Ac oru ma nukewa kom ku in oru in lain kas in kasru lal Ahithophel nu sel.
35 And hast thou not, with thee, there Zadok and Abiathar the priests? so then it shall be, that, what thing soever thou shalt hear out of the house of the king, thou shalt tell to Zadok and to Abiathar, the priests.
Mwet tol Zadok ac Abiathar eltal ac muta we. Fahkang nu seltal ma nukewa kom lohng in lohm sin tokosra ah.
36 Lo! they have there with them, their two sons, Ahimaaz for Zadok, and Jonathan for Abiathar, —so shall ye send, by their hand, unto me, everything which ye shall hear.
Wen natultal, Ahimaaz ac Jonathan, eltal oasr yoroltal, ac kom ku in supwaltalma nu yuruk in fahk nu sik ma nukewa ma kom lohng.”
37 So Hushai, David’s friend, went into the city, —when, Absolom, was about to enter Jerusalem.
Ouinge Hushai, kawuk lal David, el folok nu in siti ah, in pacl se na ma Absalom el utyak nu we.
