< 2 Samuel 2 >

1 And it was after thus and he enquired David by Yahweh - saying ¿ will I go up in one of [the] cities of Judah and he said Yahweh to him go up and he said David where? will I go up and he said Hebron towards.
Bangʼ kinde moko Daudi nopenjo Jehova Nyasaye wach niya, “Bende anyalo dhi e achiel kuom miech Juda?” Jehova Nyasaye ne odwoke niya, “Dhiyo.” Daudi nopenjo niya, “Adhi kanye?” Jehova Nyasaye ne odwoke niya, “Dhi Hebron.”
2 And he went up there David and also [the] two wives his Ahinoam the Jezreelite [woman] and Abigail [the] wife of Nabal the Carmelite.
Omiyo Daudi nodhi kuno gi monde ariyo, Ahinoam nyar Jezreel gi Abigael ma dhako ma chwore otho mane jaod Nabal ja-Karmel.
3 And men his who [were] with him he brought up David each man and household his and they dwelt in [the] cities of Hebron.
Daudi bende nodhi gi joma ne ni kode ka moro ka moro nigi joode, kendo negidak Hebron gi dalane.
4 And they came [the] people of Judah and they anointed there David to king over [the] house of Judah and people told to David saying [the] men of Jabesh Gilead who they buried Saul.
Eka jo-Juda nobiro Hebron, kendo ne giwiro Daudi obedo ruodh dhood Juda kanyo. Kane onyis Daudi ni jo-Jabesh Gilead ema ne oiko Saulo,
5 And he sent David messengers to [the] people of Jabesh Gilead and he said to them [be] blessed you by Yahweh that you have done the loyalty this with lord your with Saul and you have buried him.
nooro joote ni jo-Jabesh Gilead mondo owachnegi niya, “Jehova Nyasaye mondo ogwedhu kuom timo tim ngʼwono ni Saulo ma ruodhu ka uike.
6 And now may he do Yahweh with you covenant loyalty and faithfulness and also I I will do with you the good this that you have done the thing this.
Mad Jehova Nyasaye otimnu ngʼwonone gi adierane makare, kata an bende abiro timonu tim ngʼwonono machal kamano nikech ma musetimo.
7 And now - let them be strong hands your and become sons of strength for he has died lord your Saul and also me they have anointed [the] house of Judah to king over them.
To koro sani beduru motegno kendo ma jochir, nimar Saulo ruodhu osetho, kendo dhood Juda osewira abed ruodhgi.”
8 And Abner [the] son of Ner [the] commander of [the] army which [belonged] to Saul he had taken Ish-bosheth [the] son of Saul and he had brought over him Mahanaim.
E kindeno noyudo ka Abner wuod Ner, jatend lwenj Saulo, osekawo Ish-Boseth wuod Saulo motere nyaka Mahanaim.
9 And he made king him to Gilead and to the Ashurite[s] and to Jezreel and over Ephraim and over Benjamin and over Israel all of it.
Nokete ruodh Gilead, Ashuri gi Jezreel, to gi Efraim gi Benjamin kod Israel duto.
10 [was] a son of Forty year[s] Ish-bosheth [the] son of Saul when became king he over Israel and two years he reigned only [the] house of Judah they were after David.
Ish-Boseth wuod Saulo ne ja-higni piero angʼwen kano bedo ruodh Israel, nobedo ruoth kuom higni ariyo. Dhood Juda, to ne luwo Daudi.
11 And it was [the] number of the days which he was David king in Hebron over [the] house of Judah seven years and six months.
Daudi nobedo ruodh dhood Juda kuom higni abiriyo, gi dweche auchiel kane en Hebron.
12 And he went out Abner [the] son of Ner and [the] servants of Ish-bosheth [the] son of Saul from Mahanaim Gibeon towards.
Abner wuod Ner, kaachiel gi jo-Ish-Boseth wuod Saulo, nowuok Mahanaim mi gidhi Gibeon.
13 And Joab [the] son of Zeruiah and [the] servants of David they went out and they met them at [the] pool of Gibeon together and they sat down these [men] at the pool from this and these [men] at the pool from this.
Joab wuod Zeruya gi jo-Daudi nodhi moromo kodgi e yawo man Gibeon. Negibet ka gingʼiyore jomoko koni to jomoko kocha.
14 And he said Abner to Joab let them arise please the young men and let them play before us and he said Joab let them arise.
Eka Abner nowachone Joab niya, “We yawuowi oa malo mondo omakre achingʼ gachingʼ e nyimwa ka.” Joab nodwoko niya, “Kare gitim kamano.”
15 And they arose and they passed by by number two [plus] ten for Benjamin and for Ish-bosheth [the] son of Saul and two [plus] ten from [the] servants of David.
Eka negia malo mokwan-gi mi giromo ji apar gi ariyo ma jo-Benjamin ma ruodhgi ne en Ish-Boseth wuod Saulo, to gi apar gariyo mag Daudi.
16 And they took hold each - on [the] head of neighbor his and sword his [was] in [the] side of neighbor his and they fell together and someone called the place that Helkath Hazzurim which [is] in Gibeon.
Negirado ka moro ka moro mako wadgi gi wiye eka ochwoyo ngʼetne gi ligangla; eka giduto negiruombore piny. Omiyo nochak kar lwenyno mane ni Gibeon ni Helkath Hazurim ma tiende ni paw ligangla.
17 And it was the battle severe up to muchness on the day that and he was defeated Abner and [the] men of Israel before [the] servants of David.
Chiengʼno lweny ne ger ahinya, kendo joma ne nigi Daudi noloyo Abner gi jo-Israel.
18 And they were there three [the] sons of Zeruiah Joab and Abishai and Asahel and Asahel [was] swift on feet his like one of the gazelles which [are] in the open country.
Yawuot Zeruya adek ne gin Joab, Abishai gi Asahel. Koro Asahel ne tiende yot e ngʼwech mana ka mwanda.
19 And he pursued Asahel after Abner and not he turned aside to go to the right and to the left from after Abner.
Ne olawo Abner, ka ok obaro korachwich kata koracham kolawe alawa.
20 And he turned Abner behind him and he said ¿ you [is] this O Asahel and he said I.
Abner nongʼiyo chien mopenjo niya, “Mano in, Asahel?” Modwoko niya, “Ee en an.”
21 And he said to him Abner turn aside for yourself to right your or to left your and seize for yourself one from the young men and take for yourself spoils his and not he was willing Asahel to turn aside from after him.
Eka Abner nowachone niya, “Bar korachwich kata koracham; mak achiel kuom yawuowigo mondo imaye gige mag lweny.” To Asahel notamore weyo lawe.
22 And he repeated again Abner to say to Asahel turn aside for yourself from after me why? will I strike you [the] ground towards and how? will I lift up face my to Joab brother your.
Abner nosiemo Asahel niya, “We lawa! En angʼo momiyo danegi? To katimo kamano, ere kaka dachungʼ e nyim Joab owadu?”
23 And he refused to turn aside and he struck him Abner with [the] back end of the spear into the belly and it went out the spear from behind him and he fell there and he died (in place his *Q(K)*) and it was every [one] who came to the place where he fell there Asahel and he died and they stood still.
To Asahel nodagi weyo lawe; mi Abner nochwowo ii Asahel gi tongʼ mi tongʼ nowuok yo ka ngʼee Asahel. Nogore piny kanyo mi otho gisano. Kendo ji duto nochungʼ ka gichopo kama Asahel nogore piny motho.
24 And they pursued Joab and Abishai after Abner and the sun it set and they they came to [the] hill of Ammah which [is] on [the] face of Giah [the] way of [the] wilderness of Gibeon.
To Joab gi Abishai nolawo Abner, kendo ka chiengʼ ne podho, negichopo e got Ama, machiegni gi Gia e yo mochiko thim mar Gibeon.
25 And they gathered together [the] descendants of Benjamin behind Abner and they became a band one and they stood on [the] top of a hill one.
Eka jo-Benjamin nochungʼ bangʼ Abner. Negichokore e migepe kendo negiikore ne lweny ewi got.
26 And he called out Abner to Joab and he said ¿ to perpetuity will it devour [the] sword ¿ not do you know? that bitter it will be at the last and until when? not will you say to the people to turn back from after brothers their.
Abner noluongo Joab matek kowacho niya, “Chuno ni ligangla biro neko nyaka chiengʼ koso? Donge ingʼeyo ni wachni biro kelo sigu? Biro kawo kinde maromo nade mondo ikwer jogi owe lawo owetegi?”
27 And he said Joab [by] [the] life of God if if not you had spoken for then from the morning it had abandoned pursuit the people each from after brother his.
Joab nodwoke niya, “Akwongʼora gi nying Nyasaye mangima, ni ka dine ok iwuoyo, to jogi dodhi nyime gi lawo owetegi nyaka gokinyi.”
28 And he gave a blast Joab on the trumpet and they stood all the people and not they pursued again after Israel and not they repeated again to wage war.
Omiyo Joab nogoyo tungʼ mi ji duto nobiro mochungʼ, ne ok gimedo lawo jo-Israel, kata lweny bende ok ne gidhiyogo nyime.
29 And Abner and men his they went in the Arabah all the night that and they passed over the Jordan and they went all Bitron and they came Mahanaim.
Otienono duto Abner gi joge nowuotho ka gingʼado Araba. Negiyoro aora Jordan, negimedo dhi ka gikadho gwengʼ Bithron duto mi gichopo Mahanaim.
30 And Joab he returned from after Abner and he gathered all the people and they were missed of [the] servants of David nine-teen man and Asah-el.
Eka Joab noduogo koa lawo Abner mi ochoko joge duto kanyakla. Ji apar gochiko mag Daudi ne onge ka ok okwan Asahel.
31 And [the] servants of David they had struck down of Benjamin and among [the] men of Abner three hundred and sixty man they had died.
To jo-Daudi nosenego jo-Benjamin mia adek gi piero auchiel mane nigi Abner.
32 And people lifted up Asahel and they buried him in [the] tomb of father his which [was] Beth-lehem and they went all the night Joab and men his and it became light for them at Hebron.
Negitingʼo ringre Asahel mi giike e liend wuon-gi e Bethlehem. Eka Joab gi joge nowuotho otieno duto mi gichopo Hebron ka piny yawore.
