1 Esi David to toa tame yina sẽe ko la, Ziba, ame si nye Mefiboset ƒe aƒedzikpɔla la va tui. Etsɔ abolo alafa eve, waintsetse ƒuƒu ka alafa ɖeka, waintsetse mumu kpo alafa ɖeka kple wain adzafi sue ɖeka ɖe tedzi eve dzi vɛ.
And whanne Dauid hadde passid a litil the cop of the hil, Siba, the child of Mysphobosech, apperide in to his comyng, with tweyne assis, that weren chargid with twei hundrid looues, and with an hundrid bundels of dried grapis, and with an hundrid gobetis of pressid figus, and with twei vessels of wyn.
2 Fia la bia Ziba be, “Nu ka míawɔ kple nu siawo?” Ziba ɖo eŋu be, “Tedziawo nye wò amewo tɔ be woanɔ dodom, aboloawo kple kutsetseawo nye ɖekakpuiawo ƒe nuɖuɖu. Ne ɖeɖi te ŋuwòme aɖe ŋu le gbegbea la, wòano wain la.”
And the kyng seide to Siba, What wolen these thingis to hem silf? And Siba answeride, My lord the kyng, the assis ben to the meyneals of the kyng, that thei sitte; the looues and `figis pressid ben to thi children to ete; forsothe the wyn is, that if ony man faile in deseert, he drynke.
3 Fia la bia be, “Afi ka Mefiboset le?” Ziba ɖo eŋu be, “Enɔ Yerusalem; egblɔ be, ‘Mezu fia azɔ! Egbe la maxɔ fofonye, Saul, ƒe fiaɖuƒe la!’”
And the kyng seide, Where is the sone of thi lord? And Siba answeride to the kyng, He dwellide in Jerusalem, `and seide, To dai the Lord of the hows of Israel schal restore to me the rewme of my fadir.
4 Fia la gblɔ na Ziba be, “Ekema metsɔ nu sia nu si nye etɔ la na wò.” Ziba ɖo eŋu be, “Akpe na wò; meda akpe gã aɖe na wò, nye amegã.”
And the kyng seide to Siba, Alle thingis that weren of Mysphibosech ben thine. And Siba seide, Y preye, fynde Y grace bifor thee, my lord the kyng.
5 Esi David kple eŋumewo gogo Bahurim la, ŋutsu aɖe do go tso kɔƒe aɖe me heƒo fi de wo. Ame siae nye Simei, Gera ƒe vi eye wòganye Saul ƒe ƒometɔ.
Therfor kyng Dauid cam `til to Bahurym, and lo! a man of the meynee of the hows of Saul, Semey bi name, sone of Gera, yede out fro thennus; he yede forth goynge out, and curside.
6 Eda kpe Fia la kple eƒe aʋafiawo kple aʋawɔla siwo katã ƒo xlãe!
And he sente stoonys ayens Dauid, and ayens alle seruauntis of kyng Dauid; forsothe al the puple, and alle fiyteris yeden at the riytside and at the left side of the king.
7 Simei ƒo fi de David kple ɣli be, “Bu le afi sia, bu le afi sia, wò hlɔ̃dola kple ame vɔ̃ɖi!
Sotheli Semey spak so, whanne he curside the kyng, Go out, go out, thou man of bloodis, and man of Belial!
8 Yehowa xe fe na wò ɖe ʋu siwo katã nèkɔ ɖe anyi le Saul, ame si teƒe nèle fia ɖum le la ƒe aƒe me eya ta Yehowa xɔ fiaɖuƒe la na viwò Absalom. Ège ɖe dzɔgbevɔ̃e me elabena ènye hlɔ̃dola!”
The Lord hath yolde to thee al the blood of the hows of Saul, for thou rauyschedist the rewme fro hym; and the Lord yaf the rewme in to the hond of Absolon, thi sone; and lo! thin yuels oppressen thee, for thou art a man of blodis.
9 Abisai bia be, “Nu ka ta avu kuku sia aƒo fi ade wò, nye aƒetɔ, fia, mahã? Ɖe mɔ nam matso ta le enu!”
Forsothe Abisay, the sone of Saruye, seide to the kyng, Whi cursith this dogge, that schal die, my lord the kyng? Y schal go, and Y schal girde of his heed.
10 Ke fia la gblɔ be, “Nya kae le nye kple miawo, Zeruya ƒe viwo, dome? Ne ele ɖiŋu dom elabena Yehowae gblɔ nɛ be, ‘Ƒo fi de David’ la, ame ka ate ŋu abia be, ‘Nu ka ta nèle nu sia wɔm ɖo?’”
And the kyng seide, Ye sones of Saruye, what is to me and to you? Suffre ye hym, that he curse; for the Lord comaundide to hym, that he schulde curse Dauid; and who is he that dare seie, Whi dide he so?
11 David gblɔ na Abisai kple eŋumewo be, “Vinye, ame si nye nye ŋutɔ nye ŋutilã la, le agbagba dzem be yeawum, ekema nu ka Benyamintɔ sia mawɔ o? Zi kpi kpɔe wòaƒo fi dem elabena Yehowae ɖoe nɛ.
And the kyng seide to Abysay, and to alle hise seruauntis, Lo! my sone, that yede out of my wombe, sekith my lijf; hou myche more now this sone of Gemyny? Suffre ye hym, that he curse bi comaundement of the Lord;
12 Alo ɖewohĩ Yehowa akpɔe be edo ɖiŋu nam dzodzro eye wòayram le eƒe fiƒodewo ta.”
if in hap the Lord biholde my turmentyng, and yelde good to me for this `cursyng of this dai.
13 Ale David kplɔ eƒe amewo yi mɔzɔzɔ la dzi eye Simei hã nɔ zɔzɔm ɖe wo ŋu le togbɛa ƒe akpa kemɛ. Enɔ fi ƒom de David, nɔ kpe damii eye wònɔ ke wum ɖe yame ɖe wo ŋu.
Therfor Dauid yede, and hise felowis, bi the weie with hym; forsothe Semey yede bi the slade of the hil `bi the side ayens hym; and curside, and sente stoonus ayens him, and spreynte erthe.
14 Ɖeɖi te Fia la kple eŋumewo katã ŋu azɔ, esime woɖo Bahurim ale wotɔ ɖe afi ma hegbɔ ɖe eme sẽe.
And so `Dauid the king cam, and al the puple weery with hym, and thei weren refreischid there.
15 Le ɣeyiɣi sia me la, Absalom kple Israelviwo va ɖo Yerusalem; Ahitofel hã nɔ wo ŋu.
Forsothe Absolon, and al the puple of Israel entriden in to Jerusalem, but also Achitofel with hym.
16 Esi David xɔlɔ̃, Husai, Arkitɔ la va ɖo la, eyi Absalom gbɔ enumake eye wòdo gbe nɛ be, “Fia nenɔ agbe tegbee. Fia nenɔ agbe tegbee!”
Sotheli whanne Chusi of Arath, the frend of Dauid, hadde come to Absolon, he spak to Absolon, Heil, kyng! heil, kyng!
17 Absalom biae be, “Aleae nàwɔ ɖe xɔwò, David ŋue nye sia? Nu ka ta mègale egbɔ o?”
To whom Absolon seide, This is thi grace to thi freend; whi yedist thou not with thi freend?
18 Husai ɖo eŋu na Absalom be, “Elabena ame si Yehowa kple Israel tia lae mewɔa dɔ na.
And Chusi answeride to Absolon, Nay, for Y shal be seruaunt of hym, whom the Lord hath chose, and al this puple, and al Israel; and Y schal dwelle with him.
19 Nu ka ta nyemawɔ nenema o? Mekpe ɖe fofowò ŋu. Azɔ la, makpe ɖe ŋuwò.”
But that Y seie also this, to whom schal Y serue? whethir not to the sone of the kyng? as Y obeiede to thi fadir, so Y schal obeie to thee.
20 Absalom trɔ ɖe Ahitofel gbɔ eye wòbiae be, “Nu ka magawɔ azɔ?”
Forsothe Absolon seide to Achitofel, Take ye counsel, what we owen to do.
21 Ahitofel ɖo eŋu na Absalom be, “Yi nàdɔ fofowò ƒe ahiãviwo gbɔ elabena egblẽ wo ɖe afi sia be woakpɔ fiasã la dzi. Ekema Israel blibo la anya be, èdo vlo fofowò ale gbegbe be ame aɖeke magate ŋu adzra mia dome ɖo o. Ekema ame sia ame adze yowòme.”
And Achytofel seide to Absolon, Entre thou to the concubyns of thi fadir, whiche he lefte to kepe the hows; that whanne al Israel herith, that thou hast defoulid thi fadir, the hondis of hem be strengthid with thee.
22 Ale wotu agbadɔ aɖe ɖe fiasã la ƒe xɔta ƒe gbadzaƒe, afi si ame sia ame ate ŋu akpɔ nu le. Absalom yina ɖadɔa fofoa ƒe ahiãviwo gbɔ le agbadɔ la me le Israel blibo la ŋkume.
Therfor thei tildeden Absolon a tabernacle in the soler, and he entride to the concubyns of his fadir bifor al Israel.
23 Le ŋkeke mawo me la, Ahitofel ƒe aɖaŋu si wòɖona la nɔna abe Mawu gbɔe wobia gbe le ene, ale David kple Absalom siaa dea bubu Ahitofel ƒe aɖaŋuɖoɖowo ŋu.
Sotheli the counsel of Achitofel, which he yaf in tho daies, was as if a man counselide God; so was al the counsel of Achitofel, bothe whanne he was with Dauid, and whanne he was with Absolon.
