2 Samuel 18
1 And he mustered David the people which [was] with him and he appointed over them commanders of thousands and commanders of hundreds.
Daudi nochano joma ne ni kode kendo noyieronigi jotend lweny mag alufe to gi mag miche.
2 And he sent out David the people the third [was] in [the] hand of Joab and the third [was] in [the] hand of Abishai [the] son of Zeruiah [the] brother of Joab and the third [was] in [the] hand of Ittai the Gittite. And he said the king to the people certainly I will go out also I with you.
Daudi nooro migepe adek mag jolweny: mokwongo notelne gi Joab, mar ariyo notelne gi Abishai ma owadgi Joab wuod Zeruya, mar adek notelne gi Itai ja-Giti. To ruoth nowachone migepego niya, “An bende nyaka adhi kodu.”
3 And it said the people not you must go out for if certainly [if] we will flee not they will set to us heart and if they will die half of us not they will set to us heart for now like us ten thousand and therefore [is] good that you will be us from [the] city (to help. *Q(K)*)
To jogo nowachone niya, “In ok inyal dhi kodwa, nikech ka ochuno ni nyaka waringi, to ok gibi dewowa. Kata ka nuswa otho to ok gidhi dewo nikech in iromri gi ji alufu apar kuomwa. Omiyo ber ka in idongʼ mondo ikonywa gie dala maduongʼ ka.”
4 And he said to them the king [that] which it will be good in view your I will do and he stood the king to [the] side of the gate and all the people they went out to hundreds and to thousands.
Ruoth nodwoko niya, “Abiro timo gima uneno ni bernu.” Omiyo ruoth nochungʼ but rangach sa ma ne oganda lweny duto ne wuok e migepegi mag miche gi mag alufe.
5 And he commanded the king Joab and Abishai and Ittai saying to gentleness for me to the young man to Absalom and all the people they heard when commanded the king all the commanders on [the] matter of Absalom.
Ruoth nochiko Joab gi Abishai kod Itai niya, “Beduru mangʼwon ne wuoda Abisalom nikech an.” Oganda duto mag jolweny nowinjo ka ruoth chiko jotelo ni kik gihiny Abisalom.
6 And it went out the people the field to meet Israel and it was the battle in [the] forest of Ephraim.
Jolweny nowuok modhi e paw lweny mondo giked gi Israel, kendo lweny nogore e bungu mar Efraim.
7 And they were defeated there [the] people of Israel before [the] servants of David and it was there the slaughter great on the day that twenty thousand.
Jolwenj mag Daudi noloyo jo-Israel kanyo, kendo ji mane otho ne ngʼeny maloyo ji alufu piero ariyo.
8 And it was there the battle (scattered *Q(K)*) over [the] face of all the land and it increased the forest to consume among the people more than [those] whom it consumed the sword on the day that.
Lweny nolandore mokwako piny, kendo joma notho chiengʼno e bungu ne ngʼeny moloyo joma noneg gi ligangla.
9 And he was met Absalom before [the] servants of David and Absalom [was] riding on the mule and it went the mule under [the] branche[s] of the oak great and it was firm head his in the oak and he was put between the heavens and between the earth and the mule which [was] under him it passed on.
Koro Abisalom nopo koromo gi jolwenj Daudi koidho pundane. To kane oyudo kanyna kadho e bwo yiend ober man-gi tipo malach, wi Abisalom nomoko e bad yadhno, mi nodongʼ koliero e kor yamo, ka kanyna mane oidho to ne dhiyo nyime gi wuoth.
10 And he saw a man one and he told to Joab and he said there! I saw Absalom hung up in the oak.
Kane achiel kuom jogo noneno ma, nonyiso Joab niya, “Aneno Abisalom koliero e bad yiend ober.”
11 And he said Joab to the man who had told to him and there! you saw and why? not did you strike down him there [the] ground towards and on me to give to you ten silver and a belt one.
Joab nowacho ni ngʼat mane onyise wachno niya, “Angʼo! Inene? Angʼo ma nomoni chwowe molwar piny kanyo? To damiyi shekel apar mag fedha gi okanda mar jolweny.”
12 And he said the man to Joab (and if *Q(k)*) I [were] weighing on hands my a thousand silver not I will stretch out hand my against [the] son of the king for in ears our he commanded the king you and Abishai and Ittai saying protect whoever the young man Absalom.
To ngʼatno nodwoke niya, “Kata dine unyalo pimo shekel alufu achiel moket e lweta, anto ok datingʼ lweta mondo aket kuom wuod ruoth. Ne wawinjo gi itwa ka ruoth chiko in gi Abishai kod Itai ni, ‘Rituru wuoda Abisalom nikech an.’
13 Or I had done (on life my *Q(K)*) falsehood and any thing not it is hidden from the king and you you will stand from in front.
To ka dine atim mano, to dine aketo ngimana e chandruok nikech onge gima opondo ne ruoth bende dine ok ikonya.”
14 And he said Joab not thus I will wait before you and he took three spears in hand his and he thrust them in [the] heart of Absalom still he [was] alive in [the] heart of the oak.
Joab nowacho niya, “Anto ok abi rito kamano.” Ka Abisalom ne pod oliero e bad yiend ober kangima, nokawo tonge adek e lwete mochwoyo dho chuny Abisalom.
15 And they surrounded [him] ten young men [the] bearers of [the] armor of Joab and they struck Absalom and they killed him.
Kendo ji apar matingʼo gige lweny mag Joab nolworo Abisalom, negigoye, ma ginege.
16 And he gave a blast Joab on the trumpet and it turned back the people from pursuing after Israel for he restrained Joab the people.
Eka Joab nogoyo turumbete mi jolweny noweyo lawo jo-Israel nikech Joab nokwerogi.
17 And they took Absalom and they threw him in the forest into the pit great and they set up over him a heap of stones great very and all Israel they fled each (to tents his. *Q(K)*)
Negikawo Abisalom ma giwito e bugo maduongʼ manie bungu, mi gibiwo kite madongo dongo kuome. E kindeno jo-Israel duto noringo modhi e miechgi.
18 And Absalom he had taken and he had set up for himself (in life his *Q(K)*) a pillar which [is] in [the] valley of the king for he said not [belongs] to me a son in order to cause to be remembered name my and he called the pillar on own name his and it has been called to it [the] monument of Absalom until the day this.
Ka Abisalom ne pod ngima nokawo siro mochungo e Holo mar Ruoth kaka rapar mare owuon nimar noparo niya, “Aonge wuowi manyalo tingʼo wiya malo kata ma dichaka.” Nochako sirono nyinge owuon, mi oluonge ni Rapar mar Abisalom nyaka chil kawuono.
19 And Ahimaaz [the] son of Zadok he said let me run please and let me bear [the] news to the king that he has vindicated him Yahweh from [the] hand of enemies his.
Koro Ahimaz wuod Zadok nowacho niya, “We aring ater wachni ne ruoth ni Jehova Nyasaye oserese e lwet jowasike.”
20 And he said to him Joab not [are] a man of news you day this and you will bear news on a day another and day this not you will bear [the] news for (since *Q(K)*) [the] son of the king he has died.
Joab nowachone niya, “In ok niter wach kawuono. Inyalo mana tero wach chiengʼ machielo, nikech wuod ruoth otho.”
21 And he said Joab to the Cushite go tell to the king [that] which you have seen and he bowed down [the] Cushite to Joab and he ran.
Eka Joab nowachone ja-Kush niya, “Dhiyo mondo inyis ruoth gima ineno.” Ja-Kush nokulore piny e nyim Joab bangʼe noringo modhi.
22 And he repeated again Ahimaaz [the] son of Zadok and he said to Joab and may it be whatever let me run please also I after the Cushite and he said Joab why? this [are] you running O son my and [will belong] to you not good news finding.
Ahimaz wuod Zadok nochako wacho ne Joab niya, “Kata bed ni angʼo matimore, to yiena alaw ja-Kush.” To Joab nodwoke niya, “Wuoda, angʼo momiyo idwaro dhi? Ionge gi wach maber manyalo keloni mich.”
23 And may it be whatever I will run and he said to him run and he ran Ahimaaz [the] way of the plain and he passed by the Cushite.
En to nowacho niya, “Kata angʼo matimore, to nyaka aring adhi.” Omiyo Joab nowachone niya, “Ringi idhi.” Eka Ahimaz noringo odhi koluwo yor pap moyombo ja-Kush.
24 And David [was] sitting between [the] two the gates and he went the watchman to [the] roof of the gate to the wall and he lifted up eyes his and he saw and there! a man [was] running to only him.
Kane oyudo Daudi obet e kind rangach maiye gi ma oko, jarito noidho wi dhoranga ohinga mar ngʼicho. Kane ongʼiyo oko, noneno ngʼato karingo kende.
25 And he called out the watchman and he told to the king and he said the king if to only him news [is] in mouth his and he came continuously and approaching.
Jarito noluongo ruoth monyise. To ruoth nowacho niya, “Ka en kende to nyaka bed ni en gi wach maber.” Kendo ngʼatno nomedo sudo machiegni koringo.
26 And he saw the watchman a man another running and he called out the watchman to the gatekeeper and he said there! a man [is] running to only him and he said the king also this one [is] bearing news.
Eka jarito noneno ngʼat machielo karingo, kendo noluongo jarit dhorangach mowachone niya, “Ne ngʼat machielo bende ringo biro ka en kende!” To ruoth nowacho niya, “En bende nyaka bed ni okelo wach maber.”
27 And he said the watchman I [am] seeing [the] running of the first [one] like [the] running of Ahimaaz [the] son of Zadok and he said the king [is] a man good this and with news good he is coming.
Jarito nowacho niya, “Nenorena ni ngʼat mokwongo ringo ka Ahimaz wuod Zadok.” Ruoth nowacho niya, “En ngʼat maber. Obiro gi wach maber.”
28 And he called out Ahimaaz and he said to the king peace and he bowed down to the king to face his [the] ground towards. And he said blessed [be] Yahweh God your who he has delivered up the men who they lifted up hand their against lord my the king.
Eka Ahimaz nowuoyo gi ruoth kowacho niya, “Gik moko dhi maber!” Nopodho piny auma e nyim ruoth ka wangʼe ochomo piny mi owacho niya, “Pak obed ni Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachi! Osechiwo e lwet ruodha ma en ruoth jogo mosepiem kode.”
29 And he said the king [does] peace? [belong] to the young man to Absalom and he said Ahimaaz I saw the multitude great to send [the] servant of the king Joab and servant your and not I know whatever.
Ruoth nopenjo niya, “Bende wuowi ma Abisalom ngima?” Ahimaz nodwoke niya, “Ne aneno ka mutni nitie maduongʼ e sa ma Joab ne oro jatich ruoth kod an, jatichni, to ok angʼeyo gima ne timore.”
30 And he said the king go around stand thus and he went around and he stood.
To ruoth nowachone niya, “Chungʼ e bathe ka kendo iriti.” Omiyo nosudo bathe mochungʼ kanyo.
31 And here! the Cushite [was] coming and he said the Cushite let him receive [the] news lord my the king for he has vindicated you Yahweh this day from [the] hand of all those [who] rose up on you.
Eka ja-Kush nochopo mowacho niya, “Ruodha ma en ruoth, winj wach maber! Jehova Nyasaye oseresi kawuononi e lwet joma piem kodi duto.”
32 And he said the king to the Cushite ¿ [does] peace [belong] to the young man to Absalom and he said the Cushite let them be like the young man [the] enemies of lord my the king and all [those] who they have risen up on you for harm.
Ruoth nopenjo ja-Kush niya, “Bende wuowi ma Abisalom ngima?” Ja-Kush nodwoko niya, “Mad wasigu mag ruodha ma en ruoth gi ji duto mane ongʼanyo ka dwahinyi obed kaka wuowino.”
33 And he was agitated the king and he went up to [the] upper room of the gate and he wept and thus - he said when went he O son my Absalom son my son my Absalom who? will he give died I I in place of you O Absalom son my son my.
Ruoth nobwok motetni. Noidho malo e ot man ewi rangach mi oywak. Noywak kowacho niya, “Yaye wuoda Abisalom, wuoda, wuoda Abisalom! Onego an ema ne atho kari, yaye Abisalom wuoda, wuoda!”
