2 Samuel 19
1 Joab was told, “Behold, the king weeps and mourns for Absalom.”
A sì rò fún Joabu pe, “Wò ó, ọba ń sọkún, ó sì ń gbààwẹ̀ fún Absalomu.”
2 The victory that day was turned into mourning among all the people, for the people heard it said that day, “The king grieves for his son.”
Ìṣẹ́gun ọjọ́ náà sì di àwẹ̀ fún gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn náà, nítorí àwọn ènìyàn náà gbọ́ ní ọjọ́ náà bí inú ọba ti bàjẹ́ nítorí ọmọ rẹ̀.
3 The people sneaked into the city that day, as people who are ashamed steal away when they flee in battle.
Àwọn ènìyàn náà sì yọ́ lọ sí ìlú ní ọjọ́ náà gẹ́gẹ́ bí àwọn bí ènìyàn tí a dójútì ṣe máa ń yọ́ lọ nígbà tí wọ́n bá sá lójú ìjà.
4 The king covered his face, and the king cried with a loud voice, “My son Absalom, Absalom, my son, my son!”
Ọba sì bo ojú rẹ̀, ọba sì kígbe ní ohùn rara pé, “Á à! Ọmọ mi Absalomu! Absalomu ọmọ mi, ọmọ mi!”
5 Joab came into the house to the king, and said, “Today you have shamed the faces of all your servants who today have saved your life, and the lives of your sons and of your daughters, and the lives of your wives, and the lives of your concubines;
Joabu sì wọ inú ilé tọ ọba lọ, ó sì wí pé, “Ìwọ dójúti gbogbo àwọn ìránṣẹ́ rẹ lónìí, àwọn tí ó gba ẹ̀mí rẹ̀ là lónìí, àti ẹ̀mí àwọn ọmọkùnrin rẹ̀, àti ti àwọn ọmọbìnrin rẹ̀, àti àwọn aya rẹ̀, àti ẹ̀mí àwọn obìnrin rẹ.
6 in that you love those who hate you and hate those who love you. For you have declared today that princes and servants are nothing to you. For today I perceive that if Absalom had lived and we had all died today, then it would have pleased you well.
Nítorí pé ìwọ fẹ́ àwọn ọ̀tá rẹ, ìwọ sì kórìíra àwọn ọ̀rẹ́ rẹ. Nítorí tí ìwọ wí lónìí pé, Ìwọ kò náání àwọn ọmọ ọba tàbí àwọn ìránṣẹ́; èmi sì rí lónìí pé, ìbá ṣe pé Absalomu wà láààyè, kí gbogbo wa sì kú lónìí, ǹjẹ́ ìbá dùn mọ́ ọ gidigidi.
7 Now therefore arise, go out and speak to comfort your servants; for I swear by Yahweh, if you don’t go out, not a man will stay with you this night. That would be worse to you than all the evil that has happened to you from your youth until now.”
Sì dìde nísinsin yìí, lọ, kí o sì sọ̀rọ̀ ìtùnú fún àwọn ìránṣẹ́ rẹ, nítorí pé èmi fi Olúwa búra, bí ìwọ kò bá lọ, ẹnìkan kì yóò bá ọ dúró ni alẹ́ yìí, èyí ni yóò sì burú fún ọ ju gbogbo ibi tí ojú rẹ ti ń rí láti ìgbà èwe rẹ wá títí ó fi di ìsinsin yìí.”
8 Then the king arose and sat in the gate. The people were all told, “Behold, the king is sitting in the gate.” All the people came before the king. Now Israel had fled every man to his tent.
Ọba sì dìde, ó sì jókòó ní ẹnu-ọ̀nà, wọ́n sì wí fún gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn náà pé, “Wò ó, ọba jókòó ní ẹnu-ọ̀nà.” Gbogbo ènìyàn sì wá sí iwájú ọba. Nítorí pé, Israẹli ti sá, olúkúlùkù sí àgọ́ rẹ̀.
9 All the people were at strife throughout all the tribes of Israel, saying, “The king delivered us out of the hand of our enemies, and he saved us out of the hand of the Philistines; and now he has fled out of the land from Absalom.
Gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn náà sì ń bà ara wọn jà nínú gbogbo ẹ̀yà Israẹli, pé, “Ọba ti gbà wá là lọ́wọ́ àwọn ọ̀tá wa, ó sì ti gbà wá kúrò lọ́wọ́ àwọn Filistini; òun sì wá sá kúrò ní ìlú nítorí Absalomu.
10 Absalom, whom we anointed over us, is dead in battle. Now therefore why don’t you speak a word of bringing the king back?”
Absalomu, tí àwa fi jẹ ọba lórí wa sì kú ní ogun, ǹjẹ́ èéṣe tí ẹ̀yin fi dákẹ́ tí ẹ̀yin kò sì sọ̀rọ̀ kan láti mú ọba padà wá?”
11 King David sent to Zadok and to Abiathar the priests, saying, “Speak to the elders of Judah, saying, ‘Why are you the last to bring the king back to his house, since the speech of all Israel has come to the king, to return him to his house?
Dafidi ọba sì ránṣẹ́ sí Sadoku, àti sí Abiatari àwọn àlùfáà pé, “Sọ fún àwọn àgbàgbà Juda, pé, ‘Èéṣe tí ẹ̀yin fi kẹ́yìn láti mú ọba padà wá sí ilé rẹ̀? Ọ̀rọ̀ gbogbo Israẹli sì ti dé ọ̀dọ̀ ọba àní ní ilé rẹ̀.
12 You are my brothers. You are my bone and my flesh. Why then are you the last to bring back the king?’
Ẹ̀yin ni ara mi, ẹ̀yin ni egungun mi, àti ẹran-ara mi: èéṣì ti ṣe tí ẹ̀yin fi kẹ́yìn láti mú ọba padà wá.’
13 Say to Amasa, ‘Aren’t you my bone and my flesh? God do so to me, and more also, if you aren’t captain of the army before me continually instead of Joab.’”
Kí ẹ̀yin sì wí fún Amasa pé, ‘Egungun àti ẹran-ara mi kọ́ ni ìwọ jẹ́ bí? Kí Ọlọ́run ó ṣe bẹ́ẹ̀ sí mi àti jù bẹ́ẹ̀ lọ pẹ̀lú, bí ìwọ kò ba ṣe olórí ogun níwájú mi títí, ní ipò Joabu.’”
14 He bowed the heart of all the men of Judah, even as one man, so that they sent to the king, saying, “Return, you and all your servants.”
Òun sì yí gbogbo àwọn ọkùnrin Juda lọ́kàn padà àní bí ọkàn ènìyàn kan; wọ́n sì ránṣẹ́ sí ọba, pé, “Ìwọ padà àti gbogbo àwọn ìránṣẹ́ rẹ.”
15 So the king returned, and came to the Jordan. Judah came to Gilgal, to go to meet the king, to bring the king over the Jordan.
Ọba sì padà, o sì wá sí odò Jordani. Juda sì wá sí Gilgali láti lọ pàdé ọba, àti láti mú ọba kọjá odò Jordani.
16 Shimei the son of Gera, the Benjamite, who was of Bahurim, hurried and came down with the men of Judah to meet King David.
Ṣimei ọmọ Gera, ará Benjamini ti Bahurimu, ó yára ó sì bá àwọn ọkùnrin Juda sọ̀kalẹ̀ láti pàdé Dafidi ọba.
17 There were a thousand men of Benjamin with him, and Ziba the servant of Saul’s house, and his fifteen sons and his twenty servants with him; and they went through the Jordan in the presence of the king.
Ẹgbẹ̀rún ọmọkùnrin sì wà lọ́dọ̀ rẹ̀ nínú àwọn ọmọkùnrin Benjamini, Ṣiba ìránṣẹ́ ilé Saulu, àti àwọn ọmọkùnrin rẹ̀ mẹ́ẹ̀ẹ́dógún àti ogún ìránṣẹ́ sì pẹ̀lú rẹ̀; wọ́n sì gòkè odò Jordani ṣáájú ọba.
18 A ferry boat went to bring over the king’s household, and to do what he thought good. Shimei the son of Gera fell down before the king when he had come over the Jordan.
Ọkọ̀ èrò kan ti rékọjá láti kó àwọn ènìyàn ilé ọba sí òkè, àti láti ṣe èyí tí ó tọ́ lójú rẹ̀. Ṣimei ọmọ Gera wólẹ̀. Ó sì dojúbolẹ̀ níwájú ọba, bí ó tí gòkè odò Jordani.
19 He said to the king, “Don’t let my lord impute iniquity to me, or remember that which your servant did perversely the day that my lord the king went out of Jerusalem, that the king should take it to his heart.
Ó sì wí fún ọba pé, “Kí olúwa mi ó má ṣe ka ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ sí mi lọ́rùn, má sì ṣe rántí àfojúdi tí ìránṣẹ́ rẹ̀ ṣe ni ọjọ́ tí olúwa mi ọba jáde ní Jerusalẹmu, kí ọba má sì fi sí inú.
20 For your servant knows that I have sinned. Therefore behold, I have come today as the first of all the house of Joseph to go down to meet my lord the king.”
Nítorí pé ìránṣẹ́ rẹ mọ̀ pé èmi ti ṣẹ̀; sì wò ó, mo wá lónìí yìí, ẹni àkọ́kọ́ ní gbogbo ìdílé Josẹfu tí yóò sọ̀kalẹ̀ wá pàdé olúwa mi ọba.”
21 But Abishai the son of Zeruiah answered, “Shouldn’t Shimei be put to death for this, because he cursed Yahweh’s anointed?”
Ṣùgbọ́n Abiṣai ọmọ Seruiah dáhùn ó sì wí pé, “Kò ha tọ́ kí a pa Ṣimei nítorí èyí? Nítorí pé òun ti bú ẹni àmì òróró Olúwa.”
22 David said, “What have I to do with you, you sons of Zeruiah, that you should be adversaries to me today? Shall any man be put to death today in Israel? For don’t I know that I am king over Israel today?”
Dafidi sì wí pé, “Kí ni èmi ní ṣe pẹ̀lú yín, ẹ̀yin ọmọ Seruiah tí ẹ dàbí ọ̀tá fún mi lónìí? A ha lè pa ènìyàn kan lónìí ní Israẹli? Tàbí èmi kò ha mọ̀ pé lónìí èmi ni ọba Israẹli.”
23 The king said to Shimei, “You will not die.” The king swore to him.
Ọba sì wí fún Ṣimei pé, “Ìwọ kì yóò kú!” Ọba sì búra fún un.
24 Mephibosheth the son of Saul came down to meet the king; and he had neither groomed his feet, nor trimmed his beard, nor washed his clothes, from the day the king departed until the day he came home in peace.
Mefiboṣeti ọmọ Saulu sì sọ̀kalẹ̀ láti wá pàdé ọba, kò wẹ ẹsẹ̀ rẹ̀, kò sí tọ́ irùngbọ̀n rẹ̀, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni kò sì fọ aṣọ rẹ̀ láti ọjọ́ tí ọba ti jáde títí ó fi di ọjọ́ tí ó fi padà ní àlàáfíà.
25 When he had come to Jerusalem to meet the king, the king said to him, “Why didn’t you go with me, Mephibosheth?”
Nígbà tí òun sì wá sí Jerusalẹmu láti pàdé ọba, ọba sì wí fún un pé, “Èéṣe tí ìwọ kò fi bá mi lọ, Mefiboṣeti?”
26 He answered, “My lord, O king, my servant deceived me. For your servant said, ‘I will saddle a donkey for myself, that I may ride on it and go with the king,’ because your servant is lame.
Òun sì dáhùn wí pé, “Olúwa mi, ọba, ìránṣẹ́ mi ni ó tàn mí, nítorí ìránṣẹ́ rẹ wí fún un pé, ‘Di kẹ́tẹ́kẹ́tẹ́ ní gàárì fún mi èmi ó gùn ún, èmi ó sì tọ ọba lọ.’ Nítorí tí ìránṣẹ́ rẹ yarọ.
27 He has slandered your servant to my lord the king, but my lord the king is as an angel of God. Therefore do what is good in your eyes.
Ó sì sọ̀rọ̀ ìbàjẹ́ sí ìránṣẹ́ rẹ, fún olúwa mi ọba, ṣùgbọ́n bí angẹli Ọlọ́run ni olúwa mi ọba rí, nítorí náà ṣe èyí tí ó dára lójú rẹ.
28 For all my father’s house were but dead men before my lord the king; yet you set your servant among those who ate at your own table. What right therefore have I yet that I should appeal any more to the king?”
Nítorí pé gbogbo ilé baba mi bí òkú ènìyàn ni wọ́n sá à rí níwájú olúwa mi ọba, ìwọ sì fi ipò fún ìránṣẹ́ rẹ láàrín àwọn tí ó ń jẹun ní ibi oúnjẹ. Nítorí náà àre kín ni èmi ní tí èmi yóò fi máa ké pe ọba síbẹ̀.”
29 The king said to him, “Why do you speak any more of your matters? I say, you and Ziba divide the land.”
Ọba sì wí fún un pé, “Èéṣe tí ìwọ fi ń sọ ọ̀ràn ara rẹ fún mi èmi sá à ti wí pé, kí ìwọ àti Ṣiba pín ilẹ̀ náà.”
30 Mephibosheth said to the king, “Yes, let him take all, because my lord the king has come in peace to his own house.”
Mefiboṣeti sì wí fún ọba pé, “Jẹ́ kí ó mú gbogbo rẹ̀, kí olúwa mi ọba sá à ti padà bọ̀ wá ilé rẹ̀ ni àlàáfíà.”
31 Barzillai the Gileadite came down from Rogelim; and he went over the Jordan with the king to conduct him over the Jordan.
Barsillai ará Gileadi sì sọ̀kalẹ̀ láti Rogelimu wá, ó sì bá ọba gòkè odò Jordani, láti ṣe ìkẹ́ rẹ̀ sí ìkọjá odò Jordani.
32 Now Barzillai was a very aged man, even eighty years old. He had provided the king with sustenance while he stayed at Mahanaim, for he was a very great man.
Barsillai sì jẹ́ arúgbó ọkùnrin gidigidi, ẹni ogbó ọgọ́rin ọdún sì ni, ó sì pèsè ohun jíjẹ fún ọba nígbà tí ó ti wà ní Mahanaimu; nítorí pé ọkùnrin ọlọ́lá ni òun ń ṣe.
33 The king said to Barzillai, “Come over with me, and I will sustain you with me in Jerusalem.”
Ọba sì wí fún Barsillai pé, “Ìwọ wá bá mi gòkè odò, èmi ó sì máa pèsè fún ọ ní Jerusalẹmu.”
34 Barzillai said to the king, “How many are the days of the years of my life, that I should go up with the king to Jerusalem?
Barsillai sì wí fún ọba pé, “Ọjọ́ mélòó ni ọdún ẹ̀mí mi kù, tí èmi ó fi bá ọba gòkè lọ sí Jerusalẹmu.
35 I am eighty years old, today. Can I discern between good and bad? Can your servant taste what I eat or what I drink? Can I hear the voice of singing men and singing women any more? Why then should your servant be a burden to my lord the king?
Ẹni ogbó ọgọ́rin ọdún sá à ni èmi lónìí, ǹjẹ́ èmi mọ ìyàtọ̀ nínú rere àti búburú? Ǹjẹ́ ìránṣẹ́ rẹ le mọ adùn ohun tí òun ń jẹ tàbí ohun ti òun ń mu bí?

36 Your servant will just go over the Jordan with the king. Why should the king repay me with such a reward?
Ìránṣẹ́ rẹ yóò sì sin ọba lọ díẹ̀ gòkè odò Jordani; èéṣì ṣe tí ọba yóò fi san ẹ̀san yìí fún mi.
37 Please let your servant turn back again, that I may die in my own city, by the grave of my father and my mother. But behold, your servant Chimham; let him go over with my lord the king; and do to him what shall seem good to you.”
Èmi bẹ̀ ọ́, jẹ́ kí ìránṣẹ́ rẹ padà, èmi ó sì kú ní ìlú mi, a ó sì sin mí ní ibojì baba àti ìyá mi. Sì wo Kimhamu ìránṣẹ́ rẹ, yóò bá olúwa mi ọba gòkè; ìwọ ó sì ṣe ohun tí ó bá tọ́ lójú rẹ fún un.”
38 The king answered, “Chimham shall go over with me, and I will do to him that which shall seem good to you. Whatever you request of me, that I will do for you.”
Ọba sì dáhùn wí pé, “Kimhamu yóò bá mi gòkè, èmi ó sì ṣe èyí tí ó tọ́ lójú rẹ̀ fún un; ohunkóhun tí ìwọ bá sì béèrè lọ́wọ́ mi, èmi ó ṣe é fún ọ.”
39 All the people went over the Jordan, and the king went over. Then the king kissed Barzillai and blessed him; and he returned to his own place.
Gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn sì gòkè odò Jordani ọba sì gòkè; ọba sì fi ẹnu ko Barsillai lẹ́nu, ó sì súre fún un; òun sì padà sí ilé rẹ̀.
40 So the king went over to Gilgal, and Chimham went over with him. All the people of Judah brought the king over, and also half the people of Israel.
Ọba sì ń lọ́ sí Gilgali, Kimhamu sì ń bà a lọ, gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn Juda sì ń ṣe ìkẹ́ ọba, àti ààbọ̀ àwọn ènìyàn Israẹli.
41 Behold, all the men of Israel came to the king, and said to the king, “Why have our brothers the men of Judah stolen you away, and brought the king and his household, over the Jordan, and all David’s men with him?”
Sì wò ó, gbogbo àwọn ọkùnrin Israẹli sì tọ ọba wá, wọ́n sì wí fún ọba pé, “Èéṣe tí àwọn arákùnrin wa àwọn ọkùnrin Juda fi jí ọ kúrò, tí wọ́n sì fi mú ọba àti àwọn ará ilé rẹ̀ gòkè odò Jordani, àti gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn Dafidi pẹ̀lú rẹ?”
42 All the men of Judah answered the men of Israel, “Because the king is a close relative to us. Why then are you angry about this matter? Have we eaten at all at the king’s cost? Or has he given us any gift?”
Gbogbo ọkùnrin Juda sì dá àwọn ọkùnrin Israẹli lóhùn pé, “Nítorí pé ọba bá wa tan ni; èéṣe tí ẹ̀yin fi bínú nítorí ọ̀ràn yìí? Àwa jẹ nínú oúnjẹ ọba rárá bí? Tàbí ó fi ẹ̀bùn kan fún wa bí?”
43 The men of Israel answered the men of Judah, and said, “We have ten parts in the king, and we have also more claim to David than you. Why then did you despise us, that our advice should not be first had in bringing back our king?” The words of the men of Judah were fiercer than the words of the men of Israel.
Àwọn ọkùnrin Israẹli náà sì dá àwọn ọkùnrin Juda lóhùn pé, “Àwa ní ipá mẹ́wàá nínú ọba, àwa sì ní nínú Dafidi jù yín lọ, èéṣì ṣe tí ẹ̀yin kò fi kà wá sí, tí ìmọ̀ wa kò fi ṣáájú láti mú ọba wa padà?” Ọ̀rọ̀ àwọn ọkùnrin Juda sì le ju ọ̀rọ̀ àwọn ọkùnrin Israẹli.
