< 2 Samuel 16 >

1 When David was a little past the top, behold, Ziba the servant of Mephibosheth met him with a couple of donkeys saddled, and on them two hundred loaves of bread, and one hundred clusters of raisins, and one hundred summer fruits, and a container of wine.
Kane Daudi osewuotho matin koa ewi got, noyudo Ziba jarit mwandu mag Mefibosheth, karite mondo oromne. Ne osembo punde bwora motingʼo makati mia ariyo, gi olemb mzabibu mongʼin mag makati mia achiel gi olemb ngʼowu mongʼin bende mia achiel kod divai mool e dende.
2 The king said to Ziba, “What do you mean by these?” Ziba said, “The donkeys are for the king’s household to ride on; and the bread and summer fruit for the young men to eat; and the wine, that those who are faint in the wilderness may drink.”
Ruoth nopenjo Ziba niya, “Angʼo momiyo ikelo gigi?” Ziba nodwoke niya, “Pundegi gin ma jood ruoth nyalo idho, makati gi olembe to gin mar jogi mondo ocham, divai to en mar duogo chuny joma ool e thim mondo omadhi.”
3 The king said, “Where is your master’s son?” Ziba said to the king, “Behold, he is staying in Jerusalem; for he said, ‘Today the house of Israel will restore me the kingdom of my father.’”
Eka ruoth nopenje niya, “To ere nyakwar ruodhi?” Ziba nowachone niya, “Odongʼ Jerusalem, nikech oparo ni, ‘Kawuononi jo-Israel dhi dwokona loch kwara.’”
4 Then the king said to Ziba, “Behold, all that belongs to Mephibosheth is yours.” Ziba said, “I bow down. Let me find favor in your sight, my lord, O king.”
Eka ruoth nowachone Ziba niya, “Gik moko duto ma mag Mefibosheth koro gin magi.” Ziba nowachone niya, “Erokamano. Mad ayud ngʼwono e wangʼ ruodha ma en ruoth.”
5 When King David came to Bahurim, behold, a man of the family of Saul’s house came out, whose name was Shimei, the son of Gera. He came out and cursed as he came.
Ka ruoth Daudi nochimo Bahurim, ngʼat moro moa e dhoodgi Saulo nobiro koa kuno. Nyinge ne Shimei wuod Gera, nowuok kowacho weche mag kwongʼ.
6 He cast stones at David and at all the servants of King David, and all the people and all the mighty men were on his right hand and on his left.
Nobayo Daudi gi jodong ruoth gi kite, kata obedo ni jolweny gi thuondi ne ogengʼo bath Daudi korachwich gi koracham.
7 Shimei said when he cursed, “Be gone, be gone, you man of blood, and wicked fellow!
Shimei nokwongʼe kawacho niya, “Wuog idhi, wuog idhi in ngʼat mosechwero remo, kendo mofuwoni.
8 The LORD has returned on you all the blood of Saul’s house, in whose place you have reigned! The LORD has delivered the kingdom into the hand of Absalom your son! Behold, you are caught by your own mischief, because you are a man of blood!”
Jehova Nyasaye osechuli kuom remo duto mane ichwero e dhood Saulo, ma isetiyo kar lochne. Jehova Nyasaye osemiyo wuodi Abisalom pinyruoth. Osetieki nikech in dhano mohero chwero remo.”
9 Then Abishai the son of Zeruiah said to the king, “Why should this dead dog curse my lord the king? Please let me go over and take off his head.”
Eka Abishai wuod Zeruya nowachone ruoth niya, “Guok mothoni to kwongʼo ruodha nangʼo? We adhi angʼad ngʼute oko.”
10 The king said, “What have I to do with you, you sons of Zeruiah? Because he curses, and because the LORD has said to him, ‘Curse David,’ who then shall say, ‘Why have you done so?’”
To ruoth nodwoke niya, “Angʼo machandou koda un yawuot Zeruya? Ka okwongʼa nikech Jehova Nyasaye nowachone ni, ‘Kwongʼ Daudi,’ to en ngʼa madipenj ni, ‘Angʼo momiyo itimo kama?’”
11 David said to Abishai and to all his servants, “Behold, my son, who came out of my bowels, seeks my life. How much more this Benjamite, now? Leave him alone, and let him curse; for the LORD has invited him.
Daudi nowachone Abishai gi jodonge duto niya, “Ka wuoda, manywolo ema dwaro tieko ngimana, to kare ja-Benjamin-ni ditimna marach maromo nade! Wereuru kode odhi nyime gi kwongʼ nimar Jehova Nyasaye osenyise mondo otim kamano.
12 It may be that the LORD will look on the wrong done to me, and that the LORD will repay me good for the cursing of me today.”
Dipo ka Jehova Nyasaye oneno midhiero ma an-go motimona ngʼwono kar kwongʼ mayudo kawuononi.”
13 So David and his men went by the way; and Shimei went along on the hillside opposite him and cursed as he went, threw stones at him, and threw dust.
Omiyo Daudi gi joge nomedo wuotho kadhi nyime ka giluwo yo, ka Shimei bende ne wuotho e dir got mochimore kode ka odhi nyime gi kwongʼe to obaye gi kite kokiro gik mochido kuome.
14 The king and all the people who were with him arrived weary; and he refreshed himself there.
Ruoth gi ji duto mane ni kode nochopo kama negidhiyoe ka giol. Kendo noyweyo kanyo.
15 Absalom and all the people, the men of Israel, came to Jerusalem, and Ahithophel with him.
To gi e kindeno, Abisalom gi jo-Israel nobiro Jerusalem to Ahithofel ne ni kode.
16 When Hushai the Archite, David’s friend, had come to Absalom, Hushai said to Absalom, “Long live the king! Long live the king!”
Eka Hushai ja-Arki, mosiep Daudi nodhi ir Abisalom mowachone niya, “Ruoth mondo odag amingʼa! Ruoth mondo odag amingʼa!”
17 Absalom said to Hushai, “Is this your kindness to your friend? Why didn’t you go with your friend?”
Abisalom nopenjo Hushai niya, “Ma e kaka inyiso hera ne osiepni? Marangʼo ne ok idhi gosiepni?”
18 Hushai said to Absalom, “No; but whomever the LORD and this people and all the men of Israel have chosen, I will be his, and I will stay with him.
Hushai nowachone Abisalom niya, “Ooyo to mana ngʼat moyier gi Jehova Nyasaye, moyier gi jogi to gi jo-Israel duto mano e ngʼat mabiro bedo jakore mi asik kode.
19 Again, whom should I serve? Shouldn’t I serve in the presence of his son? As I have served in your father’s presence, so I will be in your presence.”
To moloyo kanyo, kare onego atine ngʼa? Donge onego atine wuode? Mana kaka natiyo ni wuonu, e kaka in bende abiro tiyoni.”
20 Then Absalom said to Ahithophel, “Give your counsel what we shall do.”
Abisalom nowachone Ahithofel niya, “Ngʼadnwae rieko. En angʼo monego watim?”
21 Ahithophel said to Absalom, “Go in to your father’s concubines that he has left to keep the house. Then all Israel will hear that you are abhorred by your father. Then the hands of all who are with you will be strong.”
Ahithofel nodwoke niya, “Terri gi monde wuonu mamoko mane oweyo karito dala ruoth. Eka jo-Israel nowinj kaka isebedo mangʼwe e um wuonu, kendo ji duto man kodi nobed gi teko.”
22 So they spread a tent for Absalom on the top of the house, and Absalom went in to his father’s concubines in the sight of all Israel.
Omiyo negiguro hema ne Abisalom ewi ot malo kendo noterore gi monde wuon-gi mamoko mana ka jo-Israel duto neno.
23 The counsel of Ahithophel, which he gave in those days, was as if a man inquired at the inner sanctuary of God. All the counsel of Ahithophel was like this both with David and with Absalom.
E ndalono rieko mane Ahithofel ngʼado nechalo mana ka ngʼat mopenjo Nyasaye wach. Mano e kaka Daudi gi Abisalom ne okawo rieko ma Ahithofel ne chiwo.
