2 Samuel 18
1 Therfor Dauid, whanne the puple `was biholdun, ordeynede tribunes and centuriouns on hem.
Devid gụkọtara ndị ya na ha so ma họpụta ndịisi agha. Doo ụfọdụ ka ha chịa ọtụtụ puku ndị agha, ụfọdụ ka ha chịa ọtụtụ narị ndị agha.
2 And he yaf the thridde part of the puple vndur the hond of Joab; and the thridde part vndur the hond of Abisai, sone of Saruye, brother of Joab; and the thridde part vndur the hond of Ethai, that was of Geth. And the kyng seide to the puple, Also Y schal go out with you.
Devid zipụrụ ndị agha ya, otu ụzọ nʼime ụzọ atọ nʼokpuru Joab, Ọ họpụtakwara Abishai, nwanne Joab, nwa Zeruaya, ka ọ chịa otu ụzọ. Ma otu ụzọ nke fọdụrụ ka o tinyere nʼaka Itai onye Gat. Eze gwara ndị agha ahụ sị, “Mụ onwe m ga-edu unu gaa agha.”
3 And the puple answeride, Thou schalt not go out; for whether we fleen, it schal not perteyne to hem bi greet werk of vs; whether half the part fallith doun of vs, thei schulen not recke ynow, for thou art rekynyd for ten thousynde; therfor it is betere, that thou be to vs in the citee in stronge hold.
Ma ndị ikom ahụ sịrị, “Ị gaghị apụkwa ọzọ nʼihi na ọ bụrụ na anyị atụgharịa bido ịgba ọsọ, ọ bụrụkwa na otu ọkara nʼime anyị anwụọ, nke ahụ agaghị emetụ ha nʼobi. Naanị gị ka ha na-achọ. Ị dịkwa mkpa karịa puku ndị agha iri. Ọ ga-akara anyị mma ugbu a ka ị na-ezitere anyị inyeaka site nʼime obodo.”
4 `To whiche the kyng seide, Y schal do this, that semeth riytful to you. Therfor the kyng stood bisidis the yate, and the puple yede out bi her cumpenyes, bi hundridis and bi thousyndis.
Eze zara nʼikpeazụ sị, “Ihe ọbụla dị mma nʼanya unu ka m ga-eme.” Ya mere, eze guzoro nʼakụkụ ọnụ ụzọ ama dịka ndị ikom ya niile na-apụ nʼusu nke ọtụtụ narị, nakwa nʼusu nke ọtụtụ puku.
5 And the king comaundide to Joab, and to Abisai, and Ethai, and seyde, Kepe ye to me the child Absolon. And al the puple herde the kyng comaundinge to alle the princes for Absolon.
Eze nyere ndịisi agha ya, bụ Joab, Abishai na Itai, iwu sị ha, “Bikonu, nʼihi m, werenụ nwayọọ nʼebe nwokorobịa ahụ bụ Absalọm nọ.” Ndị agha niile nụkwara mgbe eze nyere ndịisi niile iwu a banyere Absalọm.
6 Therfor the puple yede out in to the feeld ayens Israel; and the batel was maad in the forest of Effraym.
Ndị agha Devid si nʼobodo pụọ izute ndị Izrel nʼagha. Alụrụ agha a nʼọhịa Ifrem.
7 And the puple of Israel was slayn there of the oost of Dauid, and a greet sleyng of twenti thousynde was maad in that dai.
Ndị agha Devid tigbukwara ndị agha Izrel. Ha gburu iri puku ndị agha abụọ nʼụbọchị ahụ.
8 Forsothe the batel was scaterid there on the face of al erthe, and many mo weren of the puple whiche the forest wastide, than thei whiche the swerd deuourid in that dai.
Agha ahụ gbasara nʼelu ala ahụ niile. Ndị nwụrụ nʼọhịa nʼetiti ụmụ Izrel karịrị ndị e gburu egbu.
9 Sotheli it bifeld, that Absalon sittinge on a mule, cam ayens the seruauntis of Dauid; and whanne the mule hadde entrid vndur a thicke ook, and greet, the heed of Absolon cleuyde to the ook; and whanne he was hangid bitwixe heuene and erthe, the mule, on which he sat, passide.
Absalọm zutere ndị agha Devid. Ọ na-anọkwasị nʼelu ịnyịnya ya nʼoge a, dịka ịnyịnya ahụ sitere nʼokpuru osisi ook ukwu dị nʼọhịa ahụ na-agbafee, agịrị isi ya konyere nʼalaka osisi ahụ, tụhịkọtaakwa, nke mere na ọ kwụrụ nʼetiti eluigwe na ala. Ma ịnyịnya ya gbaara na-aga.
10 Sotheli `sum man siy this, and telde to Joab, and seide, Y siy Absolon hange on an ook.
Otu nʼime ndị ikom ahụ hụrụ ya, kọọrọ Joab, “Lee, ahụrụ m Absalọm ebe ọ kwụ nʼelu osisi ook.”
11 And Joab seide to the man that `hadde telde to hym, If thou siyest, whi persidist thou not hym to the erthe, and Y schulde haue youe `to thee ten siclis of siluer, and a girdil?
Joab sịrị nwoke ahụ onye gwara gị, “Gịnị, ị hụrụ ya? Gịnị mere i tigbughị ya ka o ruo nʼala nʼebe ahụ? Mgbe ahụ, agaara m enye gị shekel ọlaọcha iri, na belịt a na-enye onye bụ dike nʼagha.”
12 And he seide to Joab, Thouy thou paiedist in myn hondis a thousynde platis of siluer, Y nolde sende myn hond in to the sone of the king; for the while we herden, the kyng comaundide to thee, and to Abisai, and to Ethai, and seide, Kepe ye to me the child Absolon.
Ma nwoke ahụ zara sị, “A sịkwarị na e nyere m puku ọlaọcha nʼaka m a, agaraghị m egbu ya. Nʼihi na anyị niile nụrụ mgbe eze na-agwa gị na Abishai na Itai sị, ‘Lezienụ anya banyere nwokorobịa bụ Absalọm, nʼihi m.’
13 But and if Y hadde do ayens my lijf hardili, this myyte not be hid fro the kyng, and thou woldist stonde on the contrarye side.
A sị na m gburu ya, ọ ga-abụ imegide eze. Ọ ga-emesiekwa chọpụta onye mere ya. Ma gị onwe gị agaraghị apụta kwuchite ọnụ m.”
14 And Joab seide, Not as thou wolt, `Absolon schal be kept, but Y schal asaile hym bifor thee. Therfore Joab took thre speris in his hond, and fitchide tho in the herte of Absolon. And whanne he spraulide, yit cleuynge in the ook,
Joab sịrị, “Ọ bụghị otu a ka m ga na-eche nʼihu gị.” Ya mere, ọ chịịrị ùbe atọ nʼaka ya, dubaa ha nʼobi Absalọm, mgbe Absalọm ka dị ndụ makwụrụ nʼelu osisi ook.
15 ten yonge squieris of Joab runnen, and smytiden, and killiden hym.
Ụmụ okorobịa iri ndị na-ebu ihe agha Joab gbara Absalọm gburugburu, tigbuo ya.
16 Sotheli Joab sownede with a clarioun, and withhelde the puple, lest it pursuede Israel fleynge, and he wolde spare the multitude.
Emesịa, Joab fụrụ opi ike nke mere ka ndị agha Devid na-achụ ndị Izrel kwụsị ịchụ ha ọsọ, nʼihi na Joab kwụsịrị ha.
17 And thei token Absolon, and castiden forth him in to a greet dich in the forest, and baren togidere a ful greet heep of stoonys on hym; forsothe al Israel fledde in to his tabernaclis.
Ha buuru ozu Absalọm tụba ya nʼolulu ukwu dị nʼoke ọhịa ahụ, werekwa nkume tụọ ya nʼelu. Ndị agha Izrel niile gbalara nʼụlọ ha.
18 Forsothe Absolon, while he lyuyde yit, hadde reisid to hym a memorial, which is in the valey of the kyng; for he seide, Y haue no sone, and this schal be the mynde of my name; and he clepide `the memorial bi his name, and it is clepid the Hond, `that is, werk, of Absolon `til to this dai.
Nʼoge Absalọm dị ndụ, o wuuru onwe ya ogidi ncheta. O wuru ogidi a na Ndagwurugwu Eze, nʼihi na o chere nʼime onwe ya sị, “Enweghị m nwa nwoke ga-aza aha m.” Ya mere, ọ gụrụ ogidi ahụ aha nke ya onwe ya. Ọ bụkwa Ogidi Absalọm ka a na-akpọ ya ruo taa.
19 Forsothe Achymaas, sone of Sadoch, seide, Y schal renne, and Y schal telle to the kyng, that the Lord hath maad doom to hym of the hond of hise enemyes.
Mgbe ahụ, Ahimaaz, nwa Zadọk, bịakwutere Joab sị ya, “Biko, ka m gbara ọsọ gaa zie eze oziọma a, na Onyenwe anyị azọpụtala ya site nʼaka ndị iro ya.”
20 To whom Joab seide, Thou schalt not be messanger in this dai, but thou schalt telle in another dai; I nyle that thou telle to dai, for the sone of the kyng is deed.
Ma Joab zara sị ya, “Ọ bụghị gị ga-ezi eze ozi taa. I nwere ike ime ya mgbe ọzọ, ma ọ bụghị taa, nʼihi na nwa eze nwụrụ.”
21 And Joab seide to Chusi, Go thou, and telle to the kyng tho thingis that thou hast seyn. Chusi worschypide Joab, and ran.
Joab gwara otu nwoke onye Kush sị ya, “Gaa gwa eze ihe ị hụrụ.” Nwoke ahụ kpọrọ isiala, gbapụ ọsọ.
22 Eft Achymaas, sone of Sadoch, seide to Joab, What lettith, if also Y renne aftir Chusi? And Joab seide to hym, What wolt thou renne, my sone? Come thou hidur, thou schalt not be a berere of good message.
Ahimaaz nwa Zadọk rịọkwara Joab ọzọ sị ya, “Otu ọbụla o si dị, biko kwere ka m gbaso onye Kush a.” Ma Joab zara sị, “Nwa m nwoke, gịnị mere i ji chọọ ị ga? I nweghị ozi ọbụla ị ga-ezi nke ga-ewetara gị ụgwọ ọrụ.”
23 Which answeride, `What sotheli if Y schal renne? And Joab seide to hym, Renn thou. Therfor Achymaas ran bi the weie of schortnesse, `and sped, and passide Chusi.
Ọ rịọrọ sị, “Otu ọbụla o si dị, hapụ m ka m gaa.” Nʼikpeazụ Joab kwenyere sị ya, “Ọ dị mma, gbara ọsọ gaa.” Ahimaaz sitere nʼụzọ dị mkpụmkpụ nke gafere obosara ala Jọdan buru nwoke Kush ahụ ụzọ gbaruo.
24 Forsothe Dauid sat bitwixe twei yatis; sotheli the spiere, that was in the hiynesse of the yate on the wal, reiside the iyen, and siy a man aloone rennynge;
Devid nọ nʼọnụ ụzọ ama nʼoge a. Mgbe onye nche rigoruru nʼelu mgbidi ebe ọ na-anọ, ọ hụrụ otu nwoke ka ọ na-agba ọsọ naanị ya.
25 and the spiere criede, and schewide to the kyng. And the kyng seide to hym, If he is aloone, good message is in his mouth.
Onye nche ahụ kpọrọ Devid oku gwa ya na o nwere onye na-abịa. Ma eze zara ya sị, “Ọ bụrụ naanị ya, o nwere oziọma.” Mgbe onyeozi ahụ na-abịaru nso,
26 Sotheli while he hastide, and neiyede neer, the spiere siy another man rennynge; and the spiere criede `in the hiynesse, and seide, Another man rennynge aloone apperith to me. And the kyng seide to hym, And this man is a good messanger.
onye nche ahụ lepụkwara anya hụ otu nwoke ọzọ ka o ji ọsọ na-abịa naanị ya. Ọ kpọkwara oku ọzọ sị, “Onye ọzọ na-abịakwa.” Eze zara sị, “Onye ahụ ga-enwekwa oziọma.”
27 Sotheli the spiere seide, Y biholde the rennyng of the formere, as the rennyng of Achymaas, sone of Sadoch. And the kyng seide, He is a good man, and he cometh bryngynge a good message.
Onye nche ahụ zara sị, “Onye nke mbụ na-abịa dị ka Ahimaaz, nwa Zadọk,” Eze zara sị, “Ọ bụ ezi mmadụ, ọ bụkwa oziọma ka o ji na-abịa.”
28 Forsothe Achymaas criede, and seide to the kyng, Heil kyng! And he worschipide the kyng lowli bifor hym to erthe, and seide, Blessid be thi Lord God, that closide togidere the men, that reisyden her hondis ayens my lord the kyng.
Mgbe ahụ, Ahimaaz kpọrọ eze oku sị, “Udo!” Ọ kpọrọ isiala nye eze. Kpuokwa ihu ya nʼala sị, “Ngọzị na-adịrị Onyenwe anyị Chineke gị. Onye nke mebiri nzube ndị ahụ niile weliri aka imegide onyenwe m bụ eze.”
29 And the kyng seide, Whether pees is to the child Absolon? And Achymaas seide, Y siy, `that is, Y herde, a great noise, whanne Joab, thi seruaunt, thou kyng, sente me thi seruaunt; Y kan noon othir thing.
Eze jụrụ ya sị, “Oleekwanụ maka nwokorobịa ahụ bụ Absalọm? Ọ nọkwa nʼudo?” Ahimaaz zara sị, “Mgbe Joab zipụrụ ohu eze, na mụ onwe m, oke ụzụ dị, ma amaghị m ihe kpatara ya.”
30 To whom the kyng seide, Passe thou, and stonde here. And whanne he hadde passid, and stood, Chusi apperide;
Eze gwara ya sị, “Chere nʼebe a.” Ahimaaz chigharịrị chere.
31 and he cam and seide, My lord the kyng, Y brynge good message; for the Lord hath demed to dai for thee of the hond of alle men that risiden ayens thee.
Mgbe ahụ, onye Kush ahụ bịarutere sị, “Onyenwe m bụ eze, nụrụ oziọma a. Taa Onyenwe anyị ekpepụtala gị site nʼịnapụta gị nʼaka ndị niile biliri imegide gị.”
32 Forsothe the kyng seide to Chusi, Whether pees is to the child Absolon? To whom Chusi answeride, and seide, The enemyes of my lord the kyng, and alle men that risiden ayens hym in to yuel, be maad as the child.
Eze jụrụ onye Kush ahụ, “Nwokorobịa ahụ bụ Absalọm, ọ nọkwa nʼudo?” Onye Kush ahụ zaghachiri, “Ka ndị iro onyenwe m bụ eze na ndị niile na-ebili imejọ gị dị ka nwokorobịa ahụ!”
33 Therfor the kyng was sory, and stiede in to the soler of the yate, and wepte, and spak thus goynge, My sone, Absolon! Absolon, my sone! who yyueth to me, that Y die for thee? Absolon, my sone! my sone, Absolon!
Okwu a metụrụ eze nʼahụ nke ukwuu, o biliri rigoo nʼụlọ nke dị nʼọnụ ụzọ ama, nọdụ nʼebe ahụ kwaa akwa. Ọ nọ na-akwa akwa mgbe ọ na-aga, na-eti mkpu akwa na-asị, “O, nwa m, Absalọm! O nwa m, nwa m, Absalọm. A sịkwarị na m nwụrụ nʼọnọdụ gị! O, Absalọm nwa m, nwa m oo!”
