< 2 Samuel 14 >
1 And Joab son of Zeruial knoweth that the heart of the king [is] on Absalom,
Ary Joaba, zanak’ i Zeroia, nahalala fa ny fon’ ny mpanjaka nalahelo an’ i Absaloma ihany.
2 and Joab sendeth to Tekoah, and taketh thence a wise woman, and saith unto her, 'Feign thyself a mourner, I pray thee, and put on, I pray thee, garments of mourning, and anoint not thyself with oil, and thou hast been as a woman these many days mourning for the dead,
Koa naniraka tany Tekoa nampaka vehivavy hendry tany Joaba ka nanao taminy hoe: Masìna ianao, modia misaona, ka miakanjoa akanjo fisaonana, ary aza mihoso-diloilo ianao, fa manaova tahaka ny vehivavy efa nisaona ela ny maty;
3 and thou hast gone unto the king, and spoken unto him, according to this word;' and Joab putteth the words into her mouth.
dia mankanesa ao amin’ ny mpanjaka, ka lazao aminy araka izao. Dia nomen’ i Joaba teny izy.
4 And the woman of Tekoah speaketh unto the king, and falleth on her face to the earth, and doth obeisance, and saith, 'Save, O king.'
Ary nony niteny tamin’ ny mpanjaka ravehivavy avy any Tekoa, dia niankohoka tamin’ ny tany izy ary nitsaoka ka nanao hoe: Vonjeo, ary mpanjaka ô.
5 And the king saith to her, 'What — to thee?' and she saith, 'Truly a widow woman [am] I, and my husband dieth,
Ary hoy ny mpanjaka taminy: Inona no nanjo anao? Dia hoy izy: Vehivavy mpitondra tena tokoa aho, fa maty vady.
6 and thy maid-servant hath two sons; and they strive both of them in a field, and there is no deliverer between them, and the one smiteth the other, and putteth him to death;
Ary izaho mpanompovavinao nanan-janaka roa lahy, ary nifanditra tany an-tsaha izy mirahalahy, ka tsy nisy nampisaraka azy, ary ny anankiray namely ny rahalahiny ka nahafaty azy.
7 and lo, the whole family hath risen against thy maid-servant, and say, Give up him who smiteth his brother, and we put him to death for the life of his brother whom he hath slain, and we destroy also the heir; and they have quenched my coal which is left — so as not to set to my husband a name and remnant on the face of the ground.'
Ary, indreo, ny mpianakavy rehetra nanangana ady tamiko mpanompovavinao ka nanao hoe: Atolory ilay namely ny rahalahiny, fa hataonay maty izy noho ny ain’ ny rahalahiny izay novonoiny ka dia hovonoinay koa ny mpandova; ka hovonoiny koa ny vainafoko sisa, ka tsy hamelany anarana na zanaka ho an’ ny vadiko etỳ ambonin’ ny tany.
8 And the king saith unto the woman, 'Go to thine house, and I give charge concerning thee.'
Ary hoy ny mpanjaka tamin-dravehivavy: Modia ianao; fa izaho no handidy ny amin’ izany.
9 And the woman of Tekoah saith unto the king, 'On me, my lord, O king, [is] the iniquity, and on the house of my father; and the king and his throne [are] innocent.'
Ary hoy ravehivavy avy any Tekoa tamin’ ny mpanjaka: Ry mpanjaka tompoko ô, aoka ho amiko ny heloka sy ho amin’ ny ankohonan’ ny raiko; fa ny mpanjaka sy ny seza fiandrianany dia aoka tsy hanan-tsiny.
10 And the king saith, 'He who speaketh [aught] unto thee, and thou hast brought him unto me, then he doth not add any more to come against thee.'
Dia hoy ny mpanjaka: Na zovy na zovy manisy teny anao, ento etỳ amiko, dia tsy haninona anao intsony izy.
11 And she saith, 'Let, I pray thee, the king remember by Jehovah thy God, that the redeemer of blood add not to destroy, and they destroy not my son;' and he saith, 'Jehovah liveth; if there doth fall of the hair of thy son to the earth.'
Ary hoy ravehivavy: Trarantitra ianao, ry mpanjaka ô, aoka ianao hahatsiaro an’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrao, ary aoka ny mpamaly ratsy hamono intsony, fandrao mamono ny zanako izy. Dia hoy ny mpanjaka: Raha velona koa Jehovah, tsy hisy ho latsaka amin’ ny tany na dia singam-bolo iray akory aza amin’ ny zanakao.
12 And the woman saith, 'Let, I pray thee, thy maid-servant speak unto my lord the king a word;' and he saith, 'Speak.'
Ary hoy ravehivavy: Trarantitra ianao, aoka kely ny mpanompovavinao hanao teny indraim-bava monja amin’ ny mpanjaka tompoko. Ary hoy izy: Lazao ary.
13 And the woman saith, 'And why hast thou thought thus concerning the people of God? yea, the king is speaking this thing as a guilty one, in that the king hath not brought back his outcast;
Dia hoy ravehivavy: Nahoana ianao no nihevitra toy izany hamely ny olon’ Andriamanitra? Fa amin’ ny, itenenan’ ny mpanjaka izany zavatra izany, dia toa mahavoa ny tenany ihany izy noho ny tsi-fampodian’ ny mpanjaka ilay noroahiny.
14 for we do surely die, and [are] as water which is running down to the earth, which is not gathered, and God doth not accept a person, and hath devised devices in that the outcast is not outcast by Him.
Fa tsy maintsy maty isika ka ho tahaka ny rano raraka amin’ ny tany, izay tsy azo raofina intsony; ary Andriamanitra tsy manala ain’ olona, fa mihevitra izay tsy hanariany ilay noroahiny.
15 'And now that I have come to speak unto the king my lord this word, [it is] because the people made me afraid, and thy maid-servant saith, Let me speak, I pray thee, unto the king; it may be the king doth do the word of his handmaid,
Fa izaho no tonga hilaza izany zavatra izany amin’ ny mpanjaka tompoko, ny olona no nampitahotra ahy: ary hoy izaho mpanompovavinao: mba holazaiko amin’ ny mpanjaka izany; fa angamba ny mpanjaka hanao izay angatahin’ ny mpanompovaviny.
16 for the king doth hearken to deliver his handmaid out of the paw of the man [seeking] to destroy me and my son together out of the inheritance of God,
Eny, ny mpanjaka hihaino ka hamonjy ny mpanompovaviny ho afaka amin’ ny tanan’ ny lehilahy izay ta-hamongotra ahy mbamin’ ny zanako hiala amin’ ny lova nomen’ Andriamanitra.
17 and thy maid-servant saith, Let, I pray thee, the word of my lord the king be for ease; for as a messenger of God so [is] my lord the king, to understand the good and the evil; and Jehovah thy God is with thee.'
Dia hoy ny mpanompovavinao: Hahazoako fiononana anie ny tenin’ ny mpanjaka tompoko; fa ta-haka Ilay Anjelin’ Andriamanitra ny mpanjaka tompoko ka mandinika izay soa sy ratsy; koa Jehovah Andriamanitrao anie ho aminao.
18 And the king answereth and saith unto the woman, 'Do not, I pray thee, hide from me the thing that I am asking thee;' and the woman saith, 'Let, I pray thee, my lord the king speak.'
Ary ny mpanjaka namaly an-dravehivavy hoe: Aza dia afenina ahy izay zavatra hanontaniako anao. Dia hoy ravehivavy: Aoka hiteny ny mpanjaka tompoko.
19 And the king saith, 'Is the hand of Joab with thee in all this?' And the woman answereth and saith, 'Thy soul liveth, my lord, O king, none [doth turn] to the right or to the left from all that my lord the king hath spoken; for thy servant Joab he commanded me, and he put in the mouth of thy maid-servant all these words;
Ary hoy ny mpanjaka: Moa saina nomen’ i Joaba va izany rehetra lazainao izany? Dia hoy ny navalin-dravehivavy: Raha velona koa ny ainao, ry mpanjaka tompoko, tsy misy mivily izay rehetra nolazain’ ny mpanjaka tompoko na ho amin’ ny ankavanana na ho amin’ ny ankavia; fa Joaba mpanomponao tokoa no nandidy ahy sy nanome izany teny rehetra izany ny mpanompovavinao.
20 in order to bring round the appearance of the thing hath thy servant Joab done this thing, and my lord [is] wise, according to the wisdom of a messenger of God, to know all that [is] in the land.'
Ny hampiova tarehy ny raharaha no nanaovan’ i Joaba mpanomponao izany zavatra izany; fa hendry tahaka Ilay Anjelin’ Andriamanitra tompoko ka mahalala ny zavatra rehetra etỳ ambonin’ ny tany.
21 And the king saith unto Joab, 'Lo, I pray thee, thou hast done this thing; and go, bring back the young man Absalom.'
Ary hoy ny mpanjaka tamin’ i Joaba: Indro fa efa nekeko izany zavatra izany: koa andeha, alao hody Absaloma zatovo.
22 And Joab falleth on his face to the earth, and doth obeisance, and blesseth the king, and Joab saith, 'To-day hath thy servant known that I have found grace in thine eyes, my lord, O king, in that the king hath done the word of his servant.'
Dia niankohoka tamin’ ny tany Joaba ka nitsaoka sy nisaotra ny mpanjaka; ary hoy Joaba: Anio no ahafantaran’ ny mpanomponao fa efa mahita fitia eo imasonao aho, ry mpanjaka tompoko, amin’ ny nanaovan’ ny mpanjaka araka ny nangatahin’ ny mpanompony.
23 And Joab riseth and goeth to Geshur, and bringeth in Absalom to Jerusalem,
Dia niainga Joaba nankany Gesora, ka nentiny nankany Jerosalema Absaloma.
24 and the king saith, 'Let him turn round unto his house, and my face he doth not see.' And Absalom turneth round unto his house, and the face of the king he hath not seen.
Ary hoy ny mpanjaka: Aoka hody any an-tranony izy, fa aza avela hahita ny tavako. Ary Absaloma nankany an-tranony, ka dia tsy nahita ny tavan’ ny mpanjaka.
25 And like Absalom there was no man [so] fair in all Israel, to praise greatly; from the sole of his foot even unto his crown there was no blemish in him;
Ary tsy nisy lehilahy tsara tarehy noderaina fatratra tahaka an’ i Absaloma teo amin’ ny Isiraely rehetra, fa hatrany am-paladiany ka hatrany an-tampon-dohany dia tsy nisy tsiny izy.
26 and in his polling his head — and it hath been at the end of year by year that he polleth [it], for it [is] heavy on him, and he hath polled it — he hath even weighed out the hair of his head — two hundred shekels by the king's weight.
Ary raha nanaratra ny lohany izy (fa isaky ny fitsingerenan’ ny taona no nanaratany azy; fa nanavesatra azy ka noharatany), dia nolanjainy ny volon-dohany, ka sekely roan-jato no lanjany, araka ny fandanjan’ ny mpanjaka.
27 And there are born to Absalom three sons, and one daughter, and her name [is] Tamar; she was a woman of a fair appearance.
Ary Absaloma niteraka zanaka telo mirahalahy sy vavy iray, atao hoe Tamara, ary vehivavy tsara tarehy izy.
28 And Absalom dwelleth in Jerusalem two years of days, and the face of the king he hath not seen;
Ary Absaloma nitoetra roa taona ngarangidina tany Jerosalema, nefa tsy mbola nahita ny tavan’ ny mpanjaka ihany izy.
29 and Absalom sendeth unto Joab, to send him unto the king, and he hath not been willing to come unto him; and he sendeth again a second time, and he hath not been willing to come.
Ary Absaloma dia naniraka tany amin’ i Joaba, mba hanirahany azy ho any amin’ ny mpanjaka, fa tsy nety nankany aminy izy; ary mbola naniraka fanindroany indray Absaloma, fa mbola tsy nety nankany ihany Joaba.
30 And he saith unto his servants, 'See, the portion of Joab [is] by the side of mine, and he hath barley there; go, and burn it with fire;' and the servants of Absalom burn the portion with fire.
Koa dia hoy izy tamin’ ny mpanompony: Indro, ny tanimbarin’ i Joaba mifanolotra amin’ ny ahy, ary manana vary hordea ao izy; andeha, dory amin’ ny afo izany. Ary ny mpanompon’ i Absaloma dia nandoro ny tanimbary.
31 And Joab riseth and cometh unto Absalom in the house, and saith unto him, 'Why have thy servants burned the portion that I have with fire?'
Ary Joaba niainga nankany amin’ i Absaloma tao an-tranony ka nanao taminy hoe: Nahoana ny mpanomponao no nandoro ny tanimbariko tamin’ ny afo?
32 And Absalom saith unto Joab, 'Lo, I sent unto thee, saying, Come hither, and I send thee unto the king to say, Why have I come in from Geshur? — good for me while I [am] there — and now, let me see the king's face, and if there is in me iniquity then thou hast put me to death.'
Fa hoy Absaloma tamin’ i Joaba: Indro, naniraka tany aminao aho ka nanao hoe: Mankanesa atỳ hirahiko ho any amin’ ny mpanjaka hanao hoe: Nahoana no niala tany Gesora aho? Tsara amiko raha nitoetra tany ihany mandraka ankehitriny. Koa ankehitriny, aoka re mba hahita ny tavan’ ny mpanjaka aho, ka raha manan-keloka aho, dia aoka hovonoiny.
33 And Joab cometh unto the king, and declareth [it] to him, and he calleth unto Absalom, and he cometh unto the king, and boweth himself to him, on his face, to the earth, before the king, and the king giveth a kiss to Absalom.
Ary Joaba nankany amin’ ny mpanjaka ka nanambara izany taminy: ary dia nampanalain’ ny mpanjaka Absaloma, dia nankao aminy izy ka niondrika tamin’ ny tany teo anatrehan’ ny mpanjaka; ary dia nanoroka an’ i Absaloma ny mpanjaka.
