< 2 Samuel 14 >
1 Now Joab son of Zeruiah perceived that the king's heart desired to see Absalom.
Ita, naawatan ni Joab a putot a lalaki ni Zeyuras ti tarigagay ti puso ti ari a makakita kenni Absalom.
2 So Joab sent word to Tekoa and had a wise woman brought to him. He said to her, “Please pretend you are a mourner and put on mourning clothes. Please do not anoint yourself with oil, but be like a woman who has mourned a long time for the dead.
Isu a nangibilin ni Joab idiay Tekoa iti sao nga adda maiyeg kenkuana a maysa a nasirib a babai. Kinunana iti babai, “Pangngaasim ta agpammarangka a kas agladladingit ken agpaneska. Pangngaasim ta saanmo a pulotan ta bagbagim iti lana, ngem ketdi kas iti babai a nabayagen nga agladladingit gapu iti minatayna.
3 Then go to the king and speak to him about what I will describe.” So Joab told her the words she was to say to the king.
Ket mapanka iti ayan ti ari ket ibagam kenkuana dagiti ibagak.” Imbaga ngarud ni Joab kenkuana dagiti sasao nga ibagana iti ari.
4 When the woman from Tekoa spoke to the king, she lay facedown on the ground and said, “Help me, king.”
Idi napan nakisarita iti ari ti nasirib a babai a naggapu idiay Tekoa, nagpakleb isuna iti daga ket kinunana, “Apo ari tulongannak.”
5 The king said to her, “What is wrong?” She answered, “The truth is that I am a widow, and my husband is dead.
Kinuna ti ari kenkuana, “Ania ti napasamak?” Simmungbat ti babai, “Ti kinapudnona ket maysaak a balo, ken natayen ti asawak.
6 I, your servant, had two sons, and they fought together in the field, and there was no one to separate them. One struck the other and killed him.
Siak, nga adipenmo ken addaan iti dua nga annak a lallaki, ket nagapada a dua idiay talon ken awan ti nanganawa kadakuada. Pinang-or ti maysa ti maysa ket napapatayna.
7 Now the whole clan has risen against your servant, and they say, 'Give into our hand the man who struck his brother, so that we may put him to death, to pay for the life of his brother whom he killed.' So they would also destroy the heir. Thus they will put out the burning coal that I have left, and they will leave for my husband neither name nor descendant on the surface of the earth.”
Ket ita, sangsangkamaysa a bimmusor kaniak nga adipenmo ti sibubukel a puli, ket kinunada, ''Ipaimayo kadakami ti anak a nangpang-or iti kabsatna, tapno papatayenmi isuna, a kasukat ti biag ti kabsatna a pinatayna.' Ket dadaelenda uray pay ti agtawid. Iti kasta, pukawendanto ti nabatik a beggang, ket awan ibatida nga uray man laeng nagan wenno kaputotan ti asawak iti rabaw ti daga.”
8 So the king said to the woman, “Go to your house, and I will command something to be done for you.”
Kinuna ngarud ti ari iti babai, Agawidka iti balaymo, ket mangibilinakto iti maysa a banag a maaramid a maipaay kenka.”
9 The woman of Tekoa replied to the king, “My master, king, may the guilt be on me and on my father's family. The king and his throne are guiltless.”
Simmungbat iti ari ti babai a naggapu idiay Tekoa, “Apok nga ari, maadda koma kaniak ken iti pamilia ni amak ti pammabasol. Ta awan ti nagbiddutan ti ari ken iti tronona.”
10 The king replied, “Whoever says anything to you, bring him to me, and he will not touch you anymore.”
Simmungbat ti ari, “Siasinoman nga agibaga iti aniaman kenka, iyegmo kaniak, ket saannakanton a sagiden.”
11 Then she said, “Please, may the king call to mind Yahweh your God, so that the avenger of blood will not destroy anyone further, so that they will not destroy my son.” The king replied, “As Yahweh lives, not one hair of your son will fall to the ground.”
Kinuna ngarud ti babai, “Pangngaasim, malagip koma ti ari ni Yahweh a Diosmo, tapno saanen a dadaelen ti tao nga agibales iti dara ti siasinoman pay, tapno saanda a papatayen ti anakko a lalaki.” Simmungbat ti ari, “Iti nagan ni Yahweh nga adda iti agnanayon, awan uray maysa a buok ti anakmo a lalaki ti matnagto iti daga.
12 Then the woman said, “Please let your servant speak a further word to my master the king.” He said, “Speak on.”
Kinuna ngarud ti babai. Pangngaasim ta palubosam daytoy adipenmo nga agibaga pay iti apok nga ari.” Kinuna ti ari, “Agsaoka latta.”
13 So the woman said, “Why then have you devised such a thing against the people of God? For in saying this thing, the king is like someone who is guilty, because the king has not brought back home again his banished son.
Ket kinuna ti babai, “Apay a nagaramidka iti maysa a banag a maibusor kadagiti tattao ti Dios? Ta ti panangibagbaga iti daytoy a banag, kasla maysa a tao ti ari a nagbiddut, gapu ta saan pay a pinagsubli ti ari ti nagtalaw nga anakna a lalaki iti pagtaenganna.
14 For we all must die, and we are like water spilled on the ground, which cannot be gathered up again. But God will not take away life; instead, he finds a way for those who were driven away to be restored.
Ta mataytayo amin ken maiyarig tayo iti danum a saanen a maurnong kalpasan a naibuyat iti daga. Ngem saan a pukawen ti Dios ti biag; ngem ketdi, mangbirok isuna iti wagas tapno pasublienna ti tao a pinapanawna manipud kenkuana.
15 Now then, seeing that I have come to speak this thing to my master the king, it is because the people have made me afraid. So your servant said to herself, 'I will now speak to the king. It may be that the king will perform the request of his servant.
Ita ngarud, makitkitam nga immayak a mangibaga iti daytoy a banag iti apok nga ari, gapu ta pinagbutengdak dagiti tattao. Isu a kinuna ti adipenmo iti bagina, 'Makisaritaak ita iti ari. Mabalin a ti ari ti mangaramid ti kiddaw ti adipenna.
16 Perhaps the king will listen to me and deliver his servant from the hand of the man who would destroy me and my son together, out of the inheritance God gave us.'
Ta dumngegto ti ari kaniak, tapno mawayawayaan ti adipenna manipud iti ima ti tao a mangdadael koma kadakami iti anakko a lalaki, manipud iti impatawid ti Dios.'
17 Then your servant prayed, 'Yahweh, please let the word of my master the king give me relief, for as an angel of God, so is my master the king in telling good from evil.' May Yahweh your God be with you.”
Kalpasanna, nagkararag daytoy adipenmo, 'Yahweh, pangngaasim ta palubusam a mapalag-anannak koma ti sao ti apok nga ari, ta kas maysa nga anghel ti Dios, kasta met ti apok nga ari iti panangibagbagana iti naimbag manipud iti dakes.' Makikaadda koma kenka ni Yahweh a Diosmo.”
18 Then the king answered and said to the woman, “Please do not hide from me anything that I will ask you.” The woman replied, “Let my master the king now speak.”
Simmungbat ngarud ti ari ket kinunana iti babai, “Pangngaasim ta saanmo nga ilibak kaniak ti aniaman a saludsudek kenka.” Simmungbat ti babai, “Agsao koma itan ti apok nga ari.”
19 The king said, “Is not the hand of Joab with you in all this?” The woman answered and said, “As you live, my master the king, no one can escape to the right hand or to the left from anything that my master the king has spoken. It was your servant Joab who commanded me and told me to say these things that your servant has spoken.
Kinuna ti ari, “Saan kadi a ti ima ni Joab ti kaduam iti daytoy?” Simmungbat ti babai ken kinunana, “Kas agbibiagka apok nga ari, awan ti makalibas iti kannawan nga ima wenno iti kannigid manipud kadagiti banbanag nga imbaga ti apok nga ari. Ni Joab nga adipenmo ti nangbilin ken nangibaga kaniak nga ibagak dagitoy a babanag nga naibaga daytoy adipenmo.
20 Your servant Joab has done this to change the course of what is happening. My master is wise, like the wisdom of an angel of God, and he knows everything that is happening in the land.”
Inaramid daytoy ti adipenmo a ni Joab tapno mabaliwanna ti mapaspasamak. Nasirib ti apok, kas iti kinasirib ti maysa nga anghel ti Dios, ket ammona amin a banbanag a mapaspasamak iti daga.”
21 So the king said to Joab, “Look now, I will do this thing. Go then, and bring the young man Absalom back.”
Isu nga imbaga ti ari kenni Joab, “Kitaem ita, aramidek daytoy a banag. Inka ngarud, ket isublim ditoy ti agtutubo a ni Absalom.”
22 So Joab lay facedown on the ground in honor and gratitude to the king. Joab said, “Today your servant knows that I have found favor in your eyes, my master, king, in that the king has performed the request of his servant.”
Isu a nagpakleb iti daga ni Joab kas panangipakitana iti panagdayaw ken panagyamanna iti ari. Kinuna ni Joab, “Ita nga aldaw, ammo daytoy adipenmo a nakasarakak iti pabor iti imatangmo, apok nga ari, iti dayta, pinatgan ti ari ti kiddaw ti adipenna.”
23 So Joab arose, went to Geshur, and brought Absalom back to Jerusalem.
Isu a timmakder ni Joab ket napan idiay Gesur, ken inayawidna ni Absalom idiay Jerusalem.
24 The king said, “He may return to his own house, but he may not see my face.” So Absalom returned to his own house, but did not see the king's face.
Kinuna ti ari, “Mabalinna ti agsubli iti bukodna a balay, ngem saanna a mabalin a makita ti rupak.” Nagsubli ngarud ni Absalom iti bukodna a balay, ngem saanna a nakita ti rupa ti ari.
25 Now in all Israel there was no one praised for his handsomeness more than Absalom. From the sole of his foot to the top of his head there was no blemish in him.
Ita iti entero nga Israel, awan iti ad-adda a naidaydayaw gapu iti kinataerna ngem ni Absalom. Awan ti pakapilawanna manipud iti dapanna agingga iti tuktokna.
26 When he cut the hair of his head at the end of every year, because it was heavy on him, he weighed his hair; it would weigh about two hundred shekels, which is measured by the weight of the king's standard.
No pukisanna ti buokna tunggal agleppas ti tawen, gapu ta nadagsen daytoy kenkuana, timbangenna ti buokna; agdagsen daytoy iti agarup dua gasut a siklo, a natimbag iti pagtimbangan ti ari.
27 To Absalom were born three sons and one daughter, whose name was Tamar. She was a beautiful woman.
Naaddaan ni Joab iti tallo a putot a lallaki ken maysa a babai nga agnagan ti Tamar. Napintas isuna a babai.
28 Absalom lived two full years in Jerusalem, without seeing the king's face.
Nagnaed ni Absalom idiay Jerusalem iti uneg ti dua a tawen a saanna a nakitkita ti rupa ti ari.
29 Then Absalom sent word for Joab to send him to the king, but Joab would not come to him. So Absalom sent word a second time, but Joab still did not come.
Kalpasanna, nangibilin iti sao ni Absalom kenni Joab nga ibaonna ni Joab iti ari, ngem saan a napan kenkuana ni Joab. Isu a nangibilin manen ti sao ni Absalom iti maikadua a daras, ngem saan latta a napan ni Joab.
30 So Absalom said to his servants, “See, Joab's field is near mine, and he has barley there. Go and set it on fire.” So Absalom's servants set the field on fire.
Isu a kinuna ni Absalom kadagiti adipenna, “Kitaenyo, adda iti talon ni Joab iti abay ti talonko, ken addaan isuna iti sebada sadiay. Inkayo ket puoranyo daytoy.” Isu a pinuoran dagiti adipen ni Absalom ti talon.
31 Then Joab arose and came to Absalom at his house, and said to him, “Why have your servants set my field on fire?”
Timmakder ngarud ni Joab ken napan ni Joab iti balay ni Absalom, ket kinunana, “Apay a pinuoran dagiti adipenmo ti talonko?
32 Absalom answered Joab, “Look, I sent word to you saying, 'Come here so I may send you to the king to say, “Why did I come from Geshur? It would be better for me to still be there. Now therefore let me see the king's face, and if I am guilty, let him kill me.”'”
Sinungbatan ni Absalom ni Joab, “Kitaem, nangibilinak iti sao kenka a mangibagbaga nga, 'Umayka ditoy ta ibaonka iti ayan iti ari ta ibagam, “Apay a naiyegak ditoy manipud Gesur? Ita ngarud bay-am a makitak ti rupa ti ari, ket no nagbiddutak, bay-am a papatayennak.””
33 So Joab went to the king and told him. When the king called for Absalom, he came to the king and bowed low to the ground before the king, and the king kissed Absalom.
Isu a napan ni Joab iti ari ket imbagana kenkuana. Idi pinaayaban ti ari ni Absalom, napan isuna iti ari ken nagrukob iti daga iti sangoanan ti ari, ket inagekan ti ari ni Absalom.
