< 2 Samuel 16 >
1 And David he passed on a little from the top and there! Ziba [the] servant of Mephi-bosheth to meet him and a pair of donkeys [were] saddled and [were] on them two hundred bread[s] and one hundred bunches of raisins and one hundred summer fruit and a skin of wine.
Mgbe Devid gafechara elu ugwu ahụ na-agbada nʼakụkụ nke ọzọ ya, Ziba, onye na-elekọta akụ Mefiboshet, guzo na-eche ya. Ọ chị ịnyịnya ibu bu narị ogbe achịcha abụọ, na otu narị ụyọkọ mkpụrụ vaịnị a mịkpọrọ amịkpọ na narị ụyọkọ mkpụrụ osisi ndị ọzọ, na karama akpụkpọ buru ibu mmanya juru nʼime ya.
2 And he said the king to Ziba what? [are] these [things] to you and he said Ziba the donkeys [are] for [the] household of the king to ride (and the bread *Q(K)*) and the summer fruit [are] to eat the young men and the wine [is] to drink the weary [person] in the wilderness.
Eze jụrụ Ziba sị, “Gịnị mere i ji bute ihe ndị a?” Ziba zara sị, “Ịnyịnya ibu ndị a bụ nke ndị ụlọeze ga-anọkwasị. Achịcha na mkpụrụ osisi ndị a bụ nke ndị ikom gị ga-eri. Mmanya a bụ nke ndị na-ada mba nʼọzara ga-aṅụ.”
3 And he said the king and where? [is] [the] son of master your and he said Ziba to the king there! [he is] dwelling in Jerusalem for he said this day they will restore to me [the] house of Israel [the] kingdom of father my.
Eze jụrụ ya sị, “Ebeekwanụ ka nwa nna gị ukwu nọ?” Ziba zara ya sị, “Ọ nọ na Jerusalem nʼihi na ọ sịrị, ‘Taa ụlọ Izrel ga-enyeghachi m alaeze nna nna m.’”
4 And he said the king to Ziba here! [belongs] to you all that [belonged] to Mephi-bosheth and he said Ziba I bow down may I find favor in view your O lord my the king.
Eze gwara Ziba sị ya, “Nʼihi ya, enyela m gị ihe niile Mefiboshet nwere, ha ga-abụkwa nke gị.” Ziba sịrị, “Ka m hụta amara nʼihu eze, bụ onyenwe m.”
5 And he came the king David to Bahurim and there! from there a man [was] coming out from [the] clan of [the] house of Saul and name his [was] Shimei [the] son of Gera [he was] coming out continuously and cursing.
Dịka eze bụ Devid na-abịaru obodo Bahurim, lee, otu nwoke sitere nʼagbụrụ ụlọ Sọl sitere nʼebe ahụ pụta. Ọ bụ Shimei nwa Gera. Ọ na-akọcha mgbe ọ na-apụta ya.
6 And he stoned with stones David and all [the] servants of the king David and all the people and all the warriors [were] from right his and from left his.
Ọ chịịrị nkume na-atụ Devid na ndị ozi eze niile. Ọ bụ ezie na ndị agha Izrel na ndị na-eche Devid nche gbara ya gburugburu nʼaka nri na aka ekpe.
7 And thus he said Shimei when cursed he get out get out O man of blood and O man of worthlessness.
Ma dịka Shimei na-akọcha, ọ sịrị, “Si nʼebe a pụọ, si nʼebe a pụọ, gị ogbu mmadụ, gị onye ọjọọ!
8 He has brought back on you Yahweh all - [the] blood of [the] house of Saul whom you have reigned (in place of him *Q(K)*) and he has given Yahweh the kingship in [the] hand of Absalom son your and here you [are] in calamity your for [are] a man of blood you.
Onyenwe anyị akwụghachila gị ụgwọ ọbara niile ị wụsiri nʼezinaụlọ Sọl, onye ị nọchiri ọnọdụ ya dịka eze. Onyenwe anyị anapụla gị alaeze ahụ, were ya nye Absalọm nwa gị! Ugbu a, ihe i metara abịala gị ụgwọ, gị ogbu mmadụ.”
9 And he said Abishai [the] son of Zeruiah to the king why? will he curse the dog dead this lord my the king let me pass over please and let me remove head his.
Abishai, nwa Zeruaya gwara eze okwu sị, “Nʼihi gịnị ka nkịta a nwụrụ anwụ ga-eji na-akọcha onyenwe m bụ eze? Biko, ka m gafee gaa bipụ ya isi.”
10 And he said the king what? [is] to me and to you O sons of Zeruiah (thus *Q(K)*) he is cursing (for *Q(K)*) Yahweh he has said to him curse David and who? will he say why? have you done thus.
Ma eze zara sị, “Gịnị jikọrọ mụ na unu, unu ụmụ ndị ikom Zeruaya. Ọ bụrụ na ọ na-akọcha m nʼihi na Onyenwe anyị sị ya ‘Kọchaa Devid,’ onye pụrụ ịjụ ajụjụ sị, ‘Gịnị mere ị ji na-eme ihe dị otu a?’”
11 And he said David to Abishai and to all servants his here! son my who he went out from inward parts my [is] seeking life my and indeed? for now [the] Ben-jaminite leave alone him so he may curse for he has spoken to him Yahweh.
Mgbe ahụ, Devid gwara Abishai na ndị ozi ya okwu sị, “Nwa m nwoke, onye si nʼahụ m na-agbalị ịnapụ m ndụ m. Gịnị ga-eme ka onye Benjamin a ghara ime karịa? Hapụ ya, ya kọchaa, nʼihi na Onyenwe anyị agwala ya ka ọ kọchaa m.
12 Perhaps he will look Yahweh (on sin my *Q(K)*) and he will repay Yahweh to me good in place of curse his the day this.
Ma eleghị anya, Onyenwe anyị ga-ahụ ọnọdụ ahụhụ m, nyeghachikwa m ngọzị nʼọnọdụ nkọcha ndị a.”
13 And he went David and men his on the road. And Shimei [was] going on [the] side of the mountain parallel with him he went and he cursed and he stoned [them] with stones parallel with him and he dusted [them] with dust.
Ya mere, Devid na ndị ya gakwara nʼihu ije ha nʼụzọ ahụ ma Shimei sokwara ha na-aga nʼakụkụ ugwu ahụ na-akọcha ha. Ọ nọgidekwara na-atụ Devid nkume, na-ekpolikwa aja elu ka ọ na-awụsa ha nʼahụ.
14 And he came the king and all the people which [was] with him exhausted and he refreshed himself there.
Ya mere, eze na ndị niile so ya gagidere bịaruo nʼakụkụ Jọdan nʼọnọdụ ike ọgwụgwụ. Nʼihi ya, ha nọdụrụ nʼebe ahụ zuo ike.
15 And Absalom and all the people [the] man of Israel they came Jerusalem and Ahithophel [was] with him.
Ma Absalọm na ndị Izrel abatalarị Jerusalem. Ahitofel sokwa ya.
16 And it was just when came Hushai the Arkite [the] friend of David to Absalom and he said Hushai to Absalom may he live the king may he live the king.
Mgbe Hushaị, enyi Devid, onye Akai bịaruru, ọ gara hụ Absalọm sị ya, “Ka eze dị ogologo ndụ, ka eze dị ndụ.”
17 And he said Absalom to Hushai [is] this loyalty your with friend your why? not did you go with friend your.
Absalọm sịrị Hushaị, “Ọ bụ otu a ka i si egosi ịhụnanya i nwere na-ebe enyi gị nọ? Gịnị mere i soghị ya?”
18 And he said Hushai to Absalom In-deed [the one] whom he has chosen Yahweh and the people this and every man of Israel (to him *Q(K)*) I will belong and with him I will remain.
Hushaị zara Absalọm sị, “Mba! Onye ahụ Onyenwe anyị na ọha mmadụ na ndị Izrel niile họpụtara, nke onye ahụ ka m ga-abụ. Ọ bụkwa onye ahụ ka m ga-adịnyere.
19 And the second [thing] whom? I will I serve ¿ not before son his just as I served before father your so I will be (before you. *LAB(h)*)
Ma onye kwanụ ka m kwesiri ijere ozi? Ọ bụghị nwa eze? Ejeere m nna gị ozi, ugbu a anọkwa m jikere ijere gị ozi!”
20 And he said Absalom to Ahithophel give for yourselves counsel what? will we do.
Absalọm tụgharịrị gwa Ahitofel okwu sị, “Gịnị ọzọ ka m ga-eme? Nye anyị ndụmọdụ gị. Gịnị ka anyị kwesiri ime?”
21 And he said Ahithophel to Absalom go into [the] concubines of father your whom he left to keep the house and it will hear all Israel that you have made yourself odious with father your and they will be strong [the] hands of all who [are] with you.
Ahitofel zara, “Ga dinaa ndị iko nwanyị nna gị ndị ahụ ọ hapụrụ ka ha lekọtaa ụlọ. Mgbe ahụ, Izrel niile ga-anụ na ị meela onwe gị ihe na-asọ oyi nʼebe nna gị nọ, aka ndị niile nọnyere gị ga-akwụkwa chịm.”
22 And they pitched for Absalom the tent on the roof and he went Absalom into [the] concubines of father his to [the] eyes of all Israel.
Ya mere, ha manyeere Absalọm ụlọ ikwu nʼelu ụlọ; ọ kpọkwaara ndị iko nwanyị nna ya dinaa ha nʼotu nʼotu, nʼihu ndị Izrel niile.
23 And [the] counsel of Ahithophel which he counseled in the days those [was] just as (he enquires anyone *Q(K)*) by [the] word of God [was] so all [the] counsel of Ahithophel both to David as well as to Absalom.
Nʼoge ahụ, ndụmọdụ ọbụla Ahitofel dụrụ dị ka a ga-asị na ọ bụ ozi si nʼọnụ Chineke nʼonwe ya bịa. Ọ bụladị nʼebe Devid nọ, na nʼebe Absalọm nọkwa, otu a ka esi bulie ndụmọdụ ọbụla Ahitofel nyere elu.
