2 Samuel 3
1 And the war between the house of Saul and the house of David was prolonged, —and, David, waxed stronger and stronger, and, the house of Saul, became weaker and weaker.
Arulana paht mweun se inmasrlon mwet mweun kasreyen sou lal Saul ac mwet mweun kasreyal David. In pacl se inge ku lal David yokyokelik, a ku lun mwet lainul sriksrikeni.
2 And there were born unto David, sons, in Hebron, —and it came to press that—His firstborn was Amnon, by Ahinoam, the Jezreelitess;
Wen onkosr natul David inge takla ke matwalos, elos isusla in acn Hebron: Amnon — nina kial pa Ahinoam, mutan Jezreel;
3 And his second Chileab, by Abigail, wife of Nabal the Carmelite, And the third Absolom, son of Maachah, daughter of Talmai, king of Geshur;
Chileab — nina kial pa Abigail, mutan Carmel katinmas kial Nabal; Absalom — nina kial pa Maacah, acn natul Talmai, tokosra lun Geshur;
4 And the fourth Adonijah, son of Higgith, —And the fifth Shephatiah, son of Abital;
Adonijah — nina kial pa Haggith; Shephatiah — nina kial pa Abital;
5 And the sixth Ithream, by Eglah wife of David. These, were born unto David, in Hebron.
Ithream — nina kial pa Eglah. Wen natul inge kewa isusla in acn Hebron.
6 And it came to pass, while the war continued between the house of Saul and the house of David, that, Abner, shewed himself courageous for the house of Saul.
Ke mweun uh srakna orek inmasrlon mwet mweun lal David ac mwet mweun kasreyen sou lal Saul, Abner el kui na kui inmasrlon mwet mweun lal Saul.
7 Now, Saul, had a concubine, whose name, was Rizpah daughter of Aiah, —and [Ish-bosheth] said unto Abner, Why, wentest thou in, unto my father’s concubine?
Sie len ah, Ishbosheth wen natul Saul, el akkolukyal Abner fahk mu el motul yorol Rizpah, mutan kulansap kial Saul, su acn natul Aiah.
8 And it provoked Abner greatly, on account of the words of Ish-bosheth, and he said—Am I, the head of the dogs, that pertain unto Judah? To-day, would I deal in lovingkindness with the house of Saul thy father, towards his brethren, and towards his friends, and have not delivered thee into the hand of David, —and yet thou hast charged upon me the transgression of the woman, today.
Ma se inge oru Abner el kasrkusrak ac fahk, “Ku kom nunku mu nga ku in oru koluk nu sel Saul? Mea pwaye lah kom pangon mu nga kulansupu mwet Judah? Oemeet me nga nuna pwayena nu sel Saul, papa tomom, oayapa mwet wial ac kawuk lal, ac nga pa pwanang kom tia kutangyukla sel David. A misenge kom akkolukyeyu ke sripen mutan se?
9 So, may God do unto Abner, and, so, may he add to him, —if, as Yahweh hath sworn unto David, even so, I deal not with him;
Lela God Elan sringilyuwi ngan misa, nga fin tia akpwayeye ma nga fahk inge: nga fah oru oana wulela lun LEUM GOD nu sel David,
10 by turning over the kingdom from the house of Saul, —and establishing the throne of David, over Israel and over Judah, from Dan, even unto Beer-sheba.
in eisla tokosrai lukel Saul ac fita lal, ac sang nu sel David tuh elan tokosra fin acn Israel ac Judah, mutawauk e Dan nu epang fahla nwe Beersheba nu eir!”
11 And he could no further answer Abner, a word, —because he feared him.
Ishbosheth el arulana sangeng sel Abner, oru el tia ku in fahkla sie kas.
12 So Abner sent messengers unto David, on the spot, saying—Whose, is the land? Saying [also] —Solemnise thy covenant with me; and lo! my hand, shall be with thee, to bring round unto thee, all Israel.
Abner el supwala mwet utuk kas nu yorol David, su muta Hebron in pacl sac, tuh elos in siyuk, “Su ac leumi facl se inge uh? Kom fin orala sie wulela nu sik, na nga ac fah kasrekom eisla acn Israel nufon lom.”
13 And he said—Good! I, will solemnise with thee a covenant, —but, one thing, must I ask of thee, saying—Thou shalt not see my face, except thou have brought in Michal, Saul’s daughter, when thou comest to see my face.
David el fahk, “Wona. Nga ac orala sie wulela nu sum kom fin orala ma se inge: usalu Michal, acn natul Saul, ke kom ac tuku.”
14 And David sent messengers unto Ish-bosheth son of Saul, saying, —Give up my wife, Michal, whom I espoused to myself, for a hundred foreskins of Philistines.
Ac David el oayapa supwala mwet utuk kas nu yorol Ishbosheth ac fahk, “Folokunulma Michal, mutan kiuk. Nga molella tari ke siofok kulun ma mukul lun mwet Philistia, tuh elan mutan kiuk.”
15 So Ish-bosheth sent and took her from her husband, —from Paltiel, son of Laish.
Na Ishbosheth el sap utuku mutan sac lukel Paltiel, mukul tumal, wen natul Laish.
16 And her husband went along with her, weeping as he went behind her, as far as Behurim, —when Abner said unto him—Go, return. And he returned.
Paltiel el fahsr na tung tokol nwe ke siti srisrik Bahurim. Tusruktu ke Abner el sap elan folokla, na Paltiel el folokla.
17 Then had Abner, speech, with the elders of Israel, saying, —In times past, ye were seeking David, to be king over you.
Abner el som nu yurin mwet kol lun Israel ac fahk nu selos, “Kowos tuh kena David elan tokosra lowos ke pacl na loes.
18 Now, therefore, act, —for Yahweh, spake unto David, saying, By the hand of David my servant, will I save my people Israel, out of the hand of the Philistines, and out of the hand of all their enemies.
Inge pacl wo lowos. Esam lah LEUM GOD El tuh fahk, ‘Nga ac orekmakunul David, mwet kulansap luk, tuh elan molela mwet luk Israel liki mwet Philistia ac liki mwet lokoalok lalos saya nukewa.’”
19 And Abner also spake in the ears of Benjamin, —and Abner also went to speak in the ears of David, in Hebron, all that was pleasing in the eyes of Israel, and in the eyes of all the house of Benjamin.
Abner el kaskas pac nu sin mwet in sruf lal Benjamin, na el som nu Hebron in fahkang nu sel David ma mwet in sruf lal Benjamin ac mwet Israel insesela in oru.
20 So, when Abner came in unto David, in Hebron, and, with him, twenty men, David made, for Abner, and for the men who were with him, a banquet.
Ke Abner el tuku nu yorol David in acn Hebron wi mwet longoul, David el orala kufwa se nu selos.
21 Then said Abner unto David—I will verily arise and go, and gather together unto my lord the king, all Israel—that they may solemnise with thee a covenant, so shalt thou reign over all that thy soul desireth. And David let Abner go, and he departed in peace.
Abner el fahk nu sel David, “Leuwa, inge nga ac som ac eisani mwet Israel nukewa in mwet lom. Elos ac fah eis kom in tokosra lalos, na kom ac fah leum fin mutunfacl sac nufon, fal nu ke lungse lom.” David el wulela na ku nu sel Abner lah el ac muta in misla, na el supwalla inkanek lal.
22 And lo! the servants of David, and Joab, came in from a raid, and, great spoil, brought they in with them; but, Abner, was not with David in Hebron, for he had let him go, and he had departed in peace.
Tok, Joab ac mwet pwapa saya lal David elos folokla liki mweun, ac elos us ma wap pukanten welulos. Tusruktu Abner el tila muta Hebron yorol David, mweyen David el supwalla wi sie wulela ke misla.
23 When, Joab, and all the host that was with him, had come in, then told they Joab, saying, Abner son of Ner hath been in unto the king, and he hath let him go, and he hath departed in peace.
Ke Joab ac mwet lal ah sun acn we, fwackyang nu sel lah Abner el tuku nu yorol Tokosra David, ac supweyukla el tari, wi wulela ke misla.
24 Then Joab came in unto the king, and said—What hast thou done? Lo! Abner came in unto thee. Wherefore is it that thou didst let him go, so that he is clean departed?
Ouinge Joab el som nu yurin tokosra ac siyuk sel, “Mea se kom orala uh? Abner el tuku nu yurum, ac efu ku kom fuhlella elan som?
25 Thou knowest Abner son of Ner, that, to deceive thee, he came, —and to take knowledge of thy going out, and thy coming in, and to take knowledge of all that thou art doing.
Nga lulalfongi lah kom etu na lah el tuku in na kiapwekom, ac in etu ke ma nukewa kom oru uh ac yen nukewa kom fahsr nu we!”
26 And, when Joab had come out from David, he sent messengers after Abner, and brought him back from the well of Sirah, —but, David, knew it not.
Tukun Joab el som lukel David, el supwala mwet in tuh usalu Abner, ac elos folokunulma liki luf in Kof Sirah. Tusruktu David el tia etu kac.
27 So Abner returned to Hebron, and Joab took him aside into the midst of the gate, to speak with him quietly, —and then smote him there, in the belly, that he died, for the blood of Asahel the brother of Joab.
Ke Abner el sun acn Hebron, Joab el kololla nu sisken mutunpot lun siti sac oana elan ke sramsram lukma nu sel. Na Joab el fakisya insial Abner. Ouinge akmuseyuki Abner mweyen el tuh unilya Asahel, tamulel lal Joab.
28 And, when David heard of it, after that, he said—Guiltless, am I and my kingdom before Yahweh, unto times age-abiding, —of the blood of Abner son of Ner.
Ke David el lohngak pweng sac, el fahk, “LEUM GOD El etu lah wangin mwetik ac mwet luk ke misa lal Abner.
29 Let it be hurled upon the head of Joab, and against all his father’s house, —and let there not fail from the house of Joab—one that hath an issue, or a leper, or one that leaneth on a crutch, or that falleth by the sword, or that lacketh bread.
Lela tuh folokinyen ma koluk se inge in oan facl Joab ac sou lal nufon. Lela in oasr mukul se in fwil nukewa in sou lal weak mas koluk, ku musen leper, ku elahn mutan, ku misa ke mweun, ku sufal mongo nal.”
30 Thus, Joab and Abishai his brother, slew Abner, —because he had caused the death of Asahel their brother, in Gibeon, in the battle.
Ouinge Joab ac Abishai tamulel lal, eltal foloksak ac unilya Abner ke sripen el tuh unilya Asahel tamulel se laltal, ke mweun in acn Gibeon.
31 And David said unto Joab, and unto all the people who were with him, —Rend your clothes, and gird you with sackcloth, and lament aloud before Abner. And, King David himself, was following the bier.
Na David el sap Joab ac mwet lal ah in salik nuknuk lalos, ac nokomang nuknuk yohk eoa in akkalemye asor lalos kacl Abner. Ke pacl in pukmas, Tokosra David sifacna el fahsr tukun box in mas sac.
32 And they buried Abner in Hebron, —and the king lifted up his voice and wept, at the grave of Abner, and all the people wept.
Abner el pukpuki Hebron, ac tokosra el tung ke pusra lulap ke kulyuk ah, ac mwet nukewa wi pac tung.
33 And the king addressed his dirge unto Abner, and said, —As a base man dieth, should Abner have died?
David el onkin on in eoksra soko inge kacl Abner: “Efu ku Abner elan misa oana mwet lalfon se?
34 Thy hands, were not bound, And, thy feet, near to fetters, were not brought, As one falleth before assassins, so didst thou fall! And again all the people wept over him.
Paol tia kapiri, Ac nial tiana losyukeni. El misa oana misa lun sie mwet anwuki sin mwet koluk!” Na mwet uh sifilpa tung kacl.
35 And, when all the people came near to get David to eat bread, while yet it was day, David sware, saying—So, let God do to me, and, so, let him add, if, before the sun go in, I taste bread, or anything else.
In len sac nufon, mwet uh srike in oru David elan kangla kutu mongo, tuh el na orala sie wulela na ku mu, “Lela Leum God Elan sringilyuwi ngan misa nga fin kangla kutena ma meet liki fongeni!”
36 And, all the people, took note of it, and it was noble in their eyes, —as, all that the king did, was, in the eyes of all the people, noble.
Ke mwet uh elos liye ma inge elos insewowo kac. Aok, ma nukewa tokosra el oru, mwet uh insewowo kac.
37 So then all the people, and all Israel, took note, that day, that it was not of the king, to cause the death of Abner son of Ner.
Mwet lal David nukewa ac mwet Israel nukewa kalem kac lah wangin ip lal Tokosra David ke misa lal Abner.
38 And the king said unto his servants, —Will ye not take note that, a prince and a great man, hath fallen this day, in Israel?
Ac tokosra el fahk nu sin mwet pwapa lal, “Mea, kowos tia akilen lah sie mwet kol fulat lun Israel el misa misenge?
39 And, I myself, this day, am weak, though anointed king, but, these men, the sons of Zeruiah, are more severe than I: Yahweh repay, the doer of wickedness, according to his wickedness.
Nga finne tokosra su sulosolla sin Leum God, tuh nga pulakin munas misenge. Wen ekasr natul Zeruiah inge upala lokoalok lalos in nunak luk. Lela LEUM GOD Elan kalyaelos fal nu ke orekma koluk elos oru inge!”
