2 Samuel 21
1 And there came to be a famine, in the days of David, for three years, year after year, so then David sought the face of Yahweh, —and Yahweh said—It respecteth Saul and his house, as to bloodshed, in that he put to death the Gibeonites.
Ìyàn kan sì mú lọ́jọ́ Dafidi ní ọdún mẹ́ta, láti ọdún dé ọdún; Dafidi sì béèrè lọ́dọ̀ Olúwa, Olúwa sì wí pé, “Nítorí ti Saulu ni, àti nítorí ilé rẹ̀ tí ó kún fún ẹ̀jẹ̀, nítorí pé ó pa àwọn ará Gibeoni.”
2 The king therefore called the Gibeonites, and said unto them (now, the Gibeonites, were, not of the sons of Israel, but of the remnant of the Amorites, with whom, the sons of Israel, had entered into an oath, and Saul had sought to smite them, in his jealousy for the sons of Israel and Judah)—
Ọba sì pe àwọn ará Gibeoni, ó sì bá wọn sọ̀rọ̀; àwọn ará Gibeoni kì í ṣe ọ̀kan nínú àwọn ọmọ Israẹli, ṣùgbọ́n wọ́n jẹ́ àwọn tí ó kù nínú àwọn ọmọ Amori; àwọn ọmọ Israẹli sì ti búra fún wọn, Saulu sì ń wá ọ̀nà àti pa wọ́n ní ìtara rẹ̀ fún àwọn ọmọ Israẹli àti Juda.
3 wherefore David said unto the Gibeonites—What shall I do for you, and wherewith shall I make propitiation, so that ye may bless the inheritance of Yahweh?
Dafidi sì bi àwọn ará Gibeoni léèrè pé, “Kí ni èmi ó ṣe fún un yín? Àti kín ni èmi ó fi ṣe ètùtù, kí ẹ̀yin lè súre fún ilẹ̀ ìní Olúwa?”
4 And the Gibeonites said unto him—It is not a matter with us of silver or gold, with Saul or with his house, neither would we have a man put to death in Israel. And he said, —What do ye say I should do for you?
Àwọn ará Gibeoni sì wí fún un pé, “Kì í ṣe ọ̀rọ̀ fàdákà tàbí wúrà láàrín wa àti Saulu tàbí ìdílé rẹ̀, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni a kò sì fẹ́ kí ẹ pa ẹnìkan ní Israẹli.” Dafidi sì wí pé, “Èyí tí ẹ̀yin bá wí ni èmi ó ṣe?”
5 Then said they unto the king, The man who consumed us, and who thought to have destroyed us from taking a place within any of the bounds of Israel,
Wọ́n sì wí fún ọba pé, “Ọkùnrin tí ó run wá, tí ó sì rò láti pa wá rẹ́ ki a má kù níbikíbi nínú gbogbo agbègbè Israẹli.
6 let there be delivered up to us—seven men of his sons, and we will crucify them unto Yahweh in Gibeah of Saul, the chosen of Yahweh. And the king said, I, will deliver them up.
Mú ọkùnrin méje nínú àwọn ọmọ rẹ̀ fún wá, àwa ó sì so wọ́n rọ̀ fún Olúwa ní Gibeah ti Saulu ẹni tí Olúwa ti yàn.” Ọba sì wí pé, “Èmi ó fi wọ́n fún yín.”
7 But the king had pity upon Mephibosheth, son of Jonathan, Saul’s son, —because of the oath of Yahweh that was between them, between David and Jonathan, Saul’s son.
Ṣùgbọ́n ọba dá Mefiboṣeti sí, ọmọ Jonatani, ọmọ Saulu, nítorí ìbúra Olúwa tí ó wà láàrín Dafidi àti Jonatani ọmọ Saulu.
8 So the king took the two sons of Rizpah daughter of Aiah, whom she had borne to Saul, even Armoni and Mephibosheth, —and the five sons of Michal daughter of Saul, whom she had borne to Adriel son of Barzillai, the Meholathite;
Ọba sì mú àwọn ọmọkùnrin méjèèjì tí Rispa ọmọbìnrin Aiah bí fún Saulu, àní Ammoni àti Mefiboṣeti àwọn ọmọkùnrin márààrún ti Merabu, ọmọbìnrin Saulu, àwọn tí ó bí fún Adrieli ọmọ Barsillai ará Mehola.
9 and delivered them up into the hand of the Gibeonites, and they crucified them in the mountain, before Yahweh, so they seven fell together, —they being put to death in the first days of harvest, in the beginning of the barley harvest.
Ó sì fi wọ́n lé àwọn ará Gibeah lọ́wọ́, wọ́n sì so wọ́n rọ̀ lórí òkè níwájú Olúwa: àwọn méjèèjì sì ṣubú lẹ́ẹ̀kan, a sì pa wọ́n ní ìgbà ìkórè, ní ìbẹ̀rẹ̀, ìkórè ọkà barle.
10 Then Rizpah daughter of Aiah, took sackcloth, and spread it out for herself, on the rock, from the beginning of harvest, until water poured out upon them from the heavens, —and suffered neither the birds of the heavens to rest on them by day, nor the wild beasts of the field, [to devour them] by night.
Rispa ọmọbìnrin Aiah sì mú aṣọ ọ̀fọ̀ kan, ó sì tẹ́ fún ará rẹ̀ lórí àpáta ní ìbẹ̀rẹ̀ ìkórè, títí omi fi dà sí wọn lára láti ọ̀run wá, kò sì jẹ́ kí àwọn ẹyẹ ojú ọ̀run bà lé wọn lọ́sàn, tàbí àwọn ẹranko igbó lóru.
11 And it was told David, —what Rizpah daughter of Aiah, Saul’s concubine, had done.
A sì ro èyí, tí Rispa ọmọbìnrin Aiah obìnrin Saulu ṣe, fún Dafidi.
12 So David went and fetched the bones of Saul, and the bones of Jonathan his son, from the owners of Jabesh-gilead, —who stole them from the broadway of Beth-shan, where the Philistines had hanged them, on the day when the Philistines had smitten Saul in Gilboa;
Dafidi sì lọ ó sì kó egungun Saulu, àti egungun Jonatani ọmọ rẹ̀ kúrò lọ́dọ̀ àwọn ọkùnrin Jabesi Gileadi, àwọn tí ó jí wọn kúrò ní ìta Beti-Ṣani, níbi tí àwọn Filistini gbé so wọ́n rọ̀, nígbà tí àwọn Filistini pa Saulu ní Gilboa.
13 and he brought up from thence the bones of Saul, and the bones of Jonathan his son, —and they gathered together the bones of them who had been crucified;
Ó sì mú egungun Saulu àti egungun Jonatani ọmọ rẹ̀ láti ibẹ̀ náà wá; wọ́n sì kó egungun àwọn tí a ti so rọ̀ jọ.
14 so they buried the bones of Saul and Jonathan his son in the land of Benjamin, in Zelah, in the grave of Kish his father, thus did they all that the king commanded, —and God suffered himself to be entreated for the land, after this.
Wọ́n sì sin egungun Saulu àti ti Jonatani ọmọ rẹ̀ ní ilé Benjamini, ní Ṣela, nínú ibojì Kiṣi baba rẹ̀, wọ́n sì ṣe gbogbo èyí tí ọba paláṣẹ, lẹ́yìn èyí ni Ọlọ́run si gba ẹ̀bẹ̀ nítorí ilẹ̀ náà.
15 And the Philistines had yet again a war with Israel, —so David went down, and his servants with him, and fought the Philistines, and David became faint.
Ogun sì tún wà láàrín àwọn Filistini àti Israẹli; Dafidi sì sọ̀kalẹ̀, àti àwọn ìránṣẹ́ rẹ̀ pẹ̀lú rẹ̀, ó sì bá àwọn Filistini jà, ó sì rẹ Dafidi.
16 So, Ishbi-benob, who was of the descendants of the giant, the weight of whose spear-head, was three hundred shekels of bronze, he also being newly armed, thought to smite David;
Iṣbi-Benobu sì jẹ́ ọ̀kan nínú àwọn Rafa, ẹni tí ọ̀kọ̀ rẹ̀ wọn ọ̀ọ́dúnrún ṣékélì idẹ, ó sì sán idà tuntun, ó sì gbèrò láti pa Dafidi.
17 but Abishai son of Zeruiah, came to his help, and smote the Philistine, and slew him. Then, sware the men of David unto him, saying—Thou must not go forth any more with us, to battle, that thou quench not the lamp of Israel.
Ṣùgbọ́n Abiṣai ọmọ Seruiah ràn án lọ́wọ́, ó sì kọlu Filistini náà, ó sì pa á. Nígbà náà ni àwọn ìránṣẹ́ Dafidi sì búra fún un pé, “Ìwọ kì yóò sì tún bá wa jáde lọ sí ibi ìjà mọ́ kí ìwọ má ṣe pa iná Israẹli.”
18 And it came to pass, after this, that there was yet again a battle in Gob, with the Philistines, —then, Sibbekai the Hushathite smote Saph, who was of the descendants of the giant.
Lẹ́yìn èyí, ìjà kan sì tún wà láàrín àwọn Israẹli àti àwọn Filistini ní Gobu, nígbà náà ni Sibekai ará Huṣati pa Safu, ẹni tí í ṣe ọ̀kan nínú àwọn Rafa.
19 And there was yet again a battle in Gob with the Philistines, —when Elhanan son of Jaare-oregim of Bethlehem, smote Goliath the Gittite, the shaft of whose spear was like a weaver’s beam.
Ìjà kan sì tún wà ní Gobu láàrín àwọn Israẹli àti àwọn Filistini, Elhanani ọmọ Jairi ará Bẹtilẹhẹmu sì pa arákùnrin Goliati ará Gitti, ẹni tí ọ̀pá ọ̀kọ̀ rẹ̀ dàbí ìdábùú apásá ìhunṣọ.
20 And there was yet again a battle in Gath; when there was a man of stature, with six fingers on each hand, and six toes on each foot, twenty-four in number; he also, having been born to the giant;
Ìjà kan sì tún wà ní Gati, ọkùnrin kan sì wà tí ó ga púpọ̀, ó sì ní ìka mẹ́fà ní ọwọ́ kan, àti ọmọ ẹsẹ̀ mẹ́fà ní ẹsẹ̀ kan, àpapọ̀ rẹ̀ sì jẹ́ mẹ́rìnlélógún; a sì bí òun náà ní Rafa.
21 but, when he reproached Israel, Jonathan son of Shimeah David’s brother, smote, him.
Nígbà tí òun sì pe Israẹli ní ìjà. Jonatani ọmọ Ṣimea arákùnrin Dafidi sì pa á.
22 These four, had been born to the giant in Gath, —but they fell by the hand of David, and by the hand of his servants.
Àwọn mẹ́rẹ̀ẹ̀rin wọ̀nyí ni ìran Rafa ní Gati, wọ́n sì ti ọwọ́ Dafidi ṣubú àti ọwọ́ àwọn ìránṣẹ́ rẹ̀.
