2 Samuel 21
1 Also hungur was maad in the lond of Israel in the daies of Dauid, bi thre yeer contynueli. And Dauid counselide the answere of the Lord; and the Lord seide, For Saul, and his hows, and blood, for he killide men of Gabaon.
Bere a Dawid di hene no, ɔkɔm baa asase no so mfe abiɛsa, enti Dawid bisaa Awurade ɔkɔm no ho asɛm. Na Awurade kae se, “Esiane fɔ a Saulo ne ne fifo di wɔ kunkum a wokunkum Gibeonfo no ho nti na ɔkɔm saa aba no.”
2 Therfor whanne Gabaonytis weren clepid, the kyng seide to hem; sotheli Gabaonytis ben not of the sones of Israel, but thei ben the relikys of Ammorreis; and the sones of Israel hadden swore to hem, `that is, that thei schulden not `be slayn, and Saul wolde smyte hem for feruent loue, as for the sones of Israel and of Juda;
Enti ɔhene Dawid frɛɛ Gibeonfo no nyinaa. Na wɔnka Israelfo no ho, na mmom, wɔyɛ Amorifo nkaefo bi. Israel kaa ntam se, wɔrenkum wɔn, nanso esiane Saulo ahopere nti, ɔpɛɛ sɛ ɔtɔre wɔn ase.
3 therfor Dauid seide to Gabaonytis, What schal Y do to you, and what schal be youre amendis, that ye blesse the eritage of the Lord?
Dawid bisaa Gibeonfo no se, “Dɛn na metumi ayɛ de apata mo? Monka, sɛnea ɛbɛyɛ a Awurade behyira ne nkurɔfo bio.”
4 And Gabaonytis seiden to hym, No questioun is to vs on gold and siluer, but ayens Saul, and ayens his hows; nether we wolen, that a man of Israel be slayn. To whiche the kyng seide, What therfor wolen ye, that Y do to you?
Gibeonfo no buae se, “Anokwa, sika rentumi, na yɛmpɛ nso sɛ wobekunkum Israelfo aweretɔ wɔ so.” Enti Dawid kɔɔ so bisaa wɔn se, “Enti dɛn na menyɛ? Monka nkyerɛ me, na mɛyɛ ama mo.”
5 Whiche seiden to the king, We owen to do awei so the man, that `al to brak ethir defoulide vs, and oppresside wickidli, that not oon sotheli be residue of his generacioun in alle the coostis of Israel.
Na wobuae se, “Ɛyɛ Saulo na ɔdwenee ho sɛ ɔbɛsɛe yɛn, sɛnea yɛrennya afa biara wɔ Israel.
6 Seuene men of hise sones be youun to vs, that we `crucifie hem to the Lord in Gabaa of Saul, sum tyme the chosun man of the Lord. And the kyng seide, Y schal yyue.
Enti wonyi Saulo mmabarima anaa ne nananom mmarima baason mma yɛn, na yebekum wɔn wɔ Awurade anim wɔ Gibea bepɔw no so.” Ɔhene no kaa se, “Eye. Mɛyɛ.”
7 And the kyng sparide Myphibosech, sone of Jonathas, sone of Saul, for the ooth of the Lord, that was bitwixe Dauid and bitwixe Jonathas, sone of Saul.
Dawid gyaee Yonatan babarima Mefiboset a na ɔyɛ Saulo nena no, esiane ntam a na Dawid ne Yonatan aka wɔ Awurade anim no nti.
8 Therfor the kyng took twei sones of Respha, douyter of Ahira, whiche sche childide to Saul, Armony, and Mysphibosech; and he took fyue sones of Mychol, douyter of Saul, whiche sche gendride to Adriel, sone of Berzellai, that was of Molaty.
Nanso ɔde Saulo mmabarima baanu a na wɔn din de Armoni ne Mefiboset a na wɔn mama Rispa no yɛ Aia babea no maa wɔn. Ɔsan de Saulo babea Mikal a na ɔyɛ Adriel a na ɔyɛ Barsilai a ofi Mehola no yere mmabarima baanum no mae.
9 And he yaf hem in to the hondis of Gabaonytis, whiche crucifieden tho sones in the hil bifor the Lord; and these seuene felden slayn togidere in the daies of the firste rep, whanne the repyng of barli bigan.
Na Gibeon mmarima no kunkum wɔn wɔ bepɔw no so wɔ Awurade anim. Enti nnipa baason no nyinaa, wokunkum wɔn wɔ bere a wɔrefi atokotwa afahyɛ no ase no.
10 Forsothe Respha, douytir of Ahia, took an heire, and `araiede to hir silf a place aboue the stoon, fro the bigynnyng of heruest til watir droppide `on hem fro heuene; and sche suffride not briddis to tere hem bi dai, nether beestis bi nyyt.
Rispa a ɔyɛ mmarima no mu baanu mama no de atweaatam sɛw ɔbotan bi so, tenaa hɔ otwabere no nyinaa mu. Wamma nnomaa ammɛsosɔw wɔn amu no awia, na anadwo nso, osiw nkekaboa ho kwan.
11 And tho thingis whiche Respha, secoundarie wijf of Saul, douytir of Ahia, hadde do, weren teld to Dauid.
Bere a Dawid tee nea Rispa a na ɔyɛ Saulo mpena no ayɛ no,
12 And Dauid yede, and took the boonys of Saul, and the boonys of Jonathas, his sone, of the men of Jabes of Galaad; that hadden stole tho boonys fro the street of Bethsan, in which street the Filisteis hadden hangid hem, whanne thei hadden slayn Saul in Gelboe.
ɔkɔɔ nkurɔfo a wofi Yabes Gilead nkyɛn, kobisaa wɔn Saulo ne ne babarima Yonatan nnompe ase. (Bere a Saulo ne Yonatan totɔɔ ɔko a wɔne Filistifo koe no ano no, Yabes Gileadfo na wɔkɔtasee wɔn amu wɔ Filistifo kurow Bet-San abɔnten so.)
13 And Dauid bar out fro thennus the boonys of Saul, and the boonys of Jonathas, his sone; and thei gaderiden the boonys of hem that weren crucified, and birieden tho with the boonys of Saul and of Jonathas, his sone, in the lond of Beniamyn, in the side of the sepulcre of Cys, fadir of Saul.
Enti Dawid de Saulo ne Yonatan nnompe bae. Saa ara na ɔde mmarima a Gibeonfo kunkum wɔn no nso nnompe bae.
14 And thei diden al thingis, what euer thingis the kyng comaundide; and the Lord dide mercy to the lond aftir these thingis.
Osiee wɔn nyinaa wɔ Saulo agya Kis ɔboda a ɛwɔ kurow Sela a ɛwɔ Benyamin asase so no mu. Ɛno akyi, Onyankopɔn twaa ɔkɔm no so wɔ Israel asase so.
15 Forsothe batel of Filisteis was maad eft ayens Israel; and Dauid yede doun, and hise seruauntis with hym, and fouyten ayen Filisteis.
Bio, Filistifo ne Israel koe. Na bere a ɔko no duu ne mpɔmpɔnso no, Dawid brɛe.
16 Sotheli whanne Dauid failide, Jesbydenob, that was of the kyn of Arapha, that is, of giauntis, and the yrun of his spere peiside thre hundrid ouncis, and he was gird with a newe swerd, enforside to smyte Dauid.
Na Yisbi-Benob yɛ abran no asefo mu baako. Na ne peaw mu duru kari boro kilogram abiɛsa ne fa, a wɔde afoa foforo ahyehyɛ ne ho. Na waka Dawid ahyɛ a anka ɔrebekum no.
17 And Abisai, sone of Saruye, was in help to Dauid; and he smoot and killide the Filistei. Than the men of Dauid sworen, and seiden, Now thou schalt not go out with vs in to batel, lest thou quenche the lanterne of Israel.
Nanso Seruia babarima Abisai begyee Dawid, na okum Filistini no. Ɛno akyi, Dawid mmarima no kaa ntam se, “Wo ne yɛn renkɔ ɔko bio na amma Israel kanea annum no.”
18 Also the secounde batel was in Gob ayens Filisteis; thanne Sobothai of Osothai smoot Zephi, of the generacioun of Arapha, of the kyn of giauntis.
Eyi akyi, ɔko foforo ba de tiaa Filistifo no wɔ Gob. Wogu so reko no, Sibekai a ofi Husan, kum Saf a na ɔno nso yɛ abran no asefo no bi.
19 Also the thridde batel was in Gob ayens Filisteis; in which batel a man youun of God, the sone of forest, a broiderer, a man of Bethleem, smoot Golyath of Geth, whos `schaft of spere was as a beem of webbis.
Ɔko foforo bi a wɔkoo wɔ Gob no nso, Yair babarima Elhanan a ofi Betlehem kum Gatni Goliat nuabarima bi. Na ne peaw mu duru te sɛ ntamanwemfo abaa.
20 The fourthe batel was in Geth; where ynne was an hiy man, that hadde sixe fyngris in the hondis and feet, that is, foure and twenti; and he was of the kyn of Arapha;
Ɔko bi a esii bio wɔ Gat nso, ɔbarima bran bi a na ɔyɛ nsansia ne nansia a ɔyɛ abran no aseni no
21 and he blasfemyde Israel; sotheli Jonathan, sone of Samaa, brother of Dauid, killide hym.
pɛɛ sɛ obu fa Israel so, gu nʼanim ase. Ɔno nso, Dawid nuabarima Simei babarima Yonatan na okum no.
22 These foure weren borun of Arapha in Geth, and thei felden doun in the hond of Dauid, and of hise seruauntis.
Saa Filistifo abran baanan yi yɛ Gat abran no asefo. Na Dawid ne nʼakofo na wokunkum wɔn nyinaa.
