And it was the war long between [the] house of Saul and between [the] house of David and David [was] going and strong and [the] house of Saul [were] going and weak.
2 Nake Daudi nĩagĩire na ciana cia aanake arĩ kũu Hebironi: Mũriũ wake wa irigithathi eetagwo Amunoni ũrĩa waciarĩtwo nĩ Ahinoamu ũrĩa Mũjezireeli;

And [was] the fourth Adonijah [the] son of Haggith and [was] the fifth Shephatiah [the] son of Abital.
5 na wa gatandatũ aarĩ Ithireamu mũrũ wa Egila mũtumia wa Daudi. Acio nĩo maaciarĩirwo Daudi kũu Hebironi.
And [was] the sixth Ithream of Eglah [the] wife of David these they were born to David in Hebron.
6 Hĩndĩ ya mbaara ya nyũmba ya Saũlũ na nyũmba ya Daudi, Abineri no kũgĩa aagĩaga na hinya arĩ thĩinĩ wa nyũmba ya Saũlũ.
And it was when was war between [the] house of Saul and between [the] house of David and Abner he was strengthening himself in [the] house of Saul.
7 Na rĩrĩ, Saũlũ nĩ arĩ na thuriya yetagwo Rizipa mwarĩ wa Aia. Nake Ishi-Boshethu akĩũria Abineri atĩrĩ, “Wakomire na thuriya ya baba nĩkĩ?”
And [belonged] to Saul a concubine and name her [was] Rizpah [the] daughter of Aiah and he said to Abner why? have you gone into [the] concubine of father my.
8 Abineri nĩarakarire mũno tondũ wa kwĩrwo ũguo nĩ Ishi-Boshethu, nake akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Kaĩ ndĩkĩrĩ mũtwe wa ngui mwena-inĩ wa Juda? Ũmũthĩ ũyũ niĩ ndĩ rũmwe na nyũmba ya thoguo Saũlũ na andũ a nyũmba yake na arata. Niĩ ndirĩ ndaamũneana kũrĩ Daudi. No rĩu ũranjĩĩra atĩ nĩhĩtĩtie ihĩtia ũhoro-inĩ ũkoniĩ mũndũ-wa-nja ũyũ!
And it burned to Abner exceedingly on [the] words of Ish-bosheth and he said ¿ [the] head of a dog [am] I which [belongs] to Judah this day I show loyalty with [the] house of - Saul father your to brothers his and to friend[s] his and not I have delivered you in [the] hand of David and you have visited on me [the] guilt of the woman this day.
9 Ngai arothũũra, niĩ Abineri, na anjĩke ũũru makĩria, ingĩaga kũhingĩria Daudi ũrĩa Jehova aamwĩrĩire na mwĩhĩtwa,
Thus may he do God to Abner and thus may he add to him if just as he swore Yahweh to David that so I will do for him.
10 na ndute ũthamaki nyũmba-inĩ ya Saũlũ, na ndũgamie gĩtĩ kĩa Daudi kĩa ũnene igũrũ wa Isiraeli na Juda, kuuma Dani nginya Birishiba.”
To take away the kingdom from [the] house of Saul and to establish [the] throne of David over Israel and over Judah from Dan and to Beer Sheba.
11 Ishi-Boshethu ndaigana kwĩra Abineri ũndũ ũngĩ tondũ nĩamwĩtigĩrĩte.
And not he was able again to bring back Abner a word because feared he him.
12 Ningĩ Abineri agĩtũma andũ kũrĩ Daudi makamwĩre atĩrĩ, “Bũrũri ũyũ nĩ waũ? Nĩtũgĩe na kĩrĩkanĩro nawe, na nĩngũgũteithia ngũrehere andũ a Isiraeli othe mwena waku.”
And he sent Abner messengers - to David (in place of himself *Q(K)*) saying [belongs] to whom? [the] land saying make! covenant your with me and here! hand my [will be] with you to bring round to you all Israel.
13 Nake Daudi akiuga atĩrĩ, “Ũguo nĩ wega. Nĩtũkũgĩa na kĩrĩkanĩro nawe. No nĩ harĩ ũndũ ũmwe ngwenda wĩke: ndũkanooke mbere yakwa angĩkorwo ndũkarehe Mikali mwarĩ wa Saũlũ hĩndĩ ĩrĩa ũgooka kũnyona.”
And he said good I I will make with you a covenant only a thing one I [am] asking from with you saying not you will see face my for - except before bring you Michal [the] daughter of Saul when coming you to see face my.
14 Ningĩ Daudi agĩtũma andũ kũrĩ Ishi-Boshethu mũrũ wa Saũlũ makamwĩre atĩrĩ, “Nengera mũtumia wakwa Mikali, ũrĩa ndagũrire na ikonde igana rĩmwe cia Afilisti.”
And he sent David messengers to Ish-bosheth [the] son of Saul saying give! wife my Michal whom I betrothed to myself for a hundred foreskins of Philistines.
15 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Ishi-Boshethu agĩathana Mikali agĩĩrwo kuuma kũrĩ mũthuuriwe Palitieli mũrũ wa Laishi.
And he sent Ish-bosheth and he took her from with a husband from with Paltiel [the] son of (Laish. *Q(K)*)
16 No rĩrĩ, mũthuuriwe, agĩtwarana nake, agĩthiĩ amũrũmĩrĩire akĩrĩraga nginya Bahurimu. Hĩndĩ ĩyo Abineri akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Cooka mũciĩ!” Nĩ ũndũ ũcio agĩcooka mũciĩ.
And he went with her husband her going and weeping after her to Bahurim and he said to him Abner go return and he returned.
17 Nake Abineri akĩaranĩria na athuuri a Isiraeli akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Kwa ihinda nĩmũkoretwo mwĩrirĩirie gũtua Daudi mũthamaki wanyu.
And [the] word of Abner it was with [the] elders of Israel saying both yesterday as well as [the] third day you were seeking David to king over you.
18 Mũtigĩĩke ũguo rĩu! Nĩgũkorwo Jehova nĩerire Daudi atĩrĩ, ‘Na ũndũ wa ndungata yakwa Daudi nĩngahonokia andũ akwa a Isiraeli kuuma guoko-inĩ kwa Afilisti na kuuma guoko-inĩ gwa thũ ciao ciothe.’”
And therefore act for Yahweh he has spoken to David saying by [the] hand of - David servant my to deliver people my Israel from [the] hand of [the] Philistines and from [the] hand of all enemies their.
19 Nake Abineri nĩacookire akĩaranĩria na andũ a Benjamini. Agĩcooka agĩthiĩ Hebironi akeere Daudi maũndũ mothe marĩa Isiraeli na nyũmba yothe ya Benjamini meendaga gwĩka.
And he spoke also Abner in [the] ears of Benjamin and he went also Abner to speak in [the] ears of David at Hebron all that it was good in [the] eyes of Israel and in [the] eyes of all [the] house of Benjamin.
20 Rĩrĩa Abineri, ũrĩa warĩ na andũ mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ ookire kũrĩ Daudi kũu Hebironi, Daudi akĩmũrugithĩria iruga hamwe na andũ ake.
And he came Abner to David Hebron and [were] with him twenty men and he made David for Abner and for [the] men who [were] with him a feast.
21 Hĩndĩ ĩyo Abineri akĩĩra Daudi atĩrĩ, “Reke thiĩ o ro rĩu ngacookanĩrĩrie andũ a Isiraeli othe nĩ ũndũ wa mũthamaki mwathi wakwa, nĩgeetha marĩkanĩre nawe, na nĩguo ũthamakagĩre o kũrĩa guothe ngoro yaku ĩĩrirĩirie.” Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Daudi agĩtũma Abineri athiĩ, nake agĩthiĩ na thayũ.
And he said Abner to David let me arise - and let me go and let me gather to lord my the king all Israel so they may make with you a covenant and you will reign over all that it desires self your and he sent away David Abner and he went in peace.
22 Hĩndĩ o ĩyo andũ a Daudi, na Joabu magĩcooka kuuma mbaara-inĩ, na magĩũka na indo nyingĩ iria maatahĩte. No Abineri ndaarĩ hamwe na Daudi kũu Hebironi, tondũ Daudi nĩamwĩrĩte athiĩ, nake agĩthiĩ na thayũ.
And there! [the] servants of David and Joab [was] coming from the raid and plunder much with them they had brought and Abner not he [was] with David in Hebron for he had sent away him and he had gone in peace.
23 Rĩrĩa Joabu na thigari ciothe iria ciarĩ hamwe nake maakinyire-rĩ, akĩĩrwo atĩ Abineri mũrũ wa Neri nĩokĩte kũrĩ mũthamaki, na atĩ mũthamaki nĩarekire athiĩ, nake agĩthiĩ na thayũ.
And Joab and all the army which [was] with him they came and people told to Joab saying he came Abner [the] son of Ner to the king and he has sent away him and he has gone in peace.
24 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Joabu agĩthiĩ kũrĩ mũthamaki akĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Nĩ atĩa ũguo weka? Ta kĩone, Abineri nĩokire kũrĩ wee. Ũrekire athiĩ nĩkĩ? Rĩu nĩagĩthiire!
And he went Joab to the king and he said what? have you done here! he came Abner to you why? this did you send away him and he has gone completely.
25 Wee nĩũũĩ atĩ Abineri mũrũ wa Neri egũũkĩte gũkũheenia na gũthigaana mĩthiĩre yaku, na amenye maũndũ marĩa mothe ũreka.”
You know Abner [the] son of Ner that to deceive you he came and to know exit your and (entrance your *Q(K)*) and to know all that you [are] doing.
26 Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa Joabu oimire harĩ Daudi, agĩtũma andũ makinyĩre Abineri, nao makĩmũcookia kuuma gĩthima-inĩ gĩa Sira. No Daudi ndaigana kũmenya ũhoro ũcio.
And he went out Joab from with David and he sent messengers after Abner and they brought back him from [the] Cistern of Sirah and David not he knew.
27 Na rĩrĩ, rĩrĩa Abineri aacookire Hebironi, Joabu akĩmũtwara keheri-inĩ kĩhingo-inĩ, ta ekwenda kwaria nake na hitho. Na marĩ hau, akĩmũtheeca nda agĩkua, nĩguo arĩhĩrie thakame ya mũrũ wa nyina Asaheli.
And he returned Abner Hebron and he turned aside him Joab into [the] middle of the gate (to speak *LA(bh)*) with him in quietness and he struck him there the belly and he died for [the] blood Asah-el brother his.
28 Thuutha ũcio, rĩrĩa Daudi aiguire ũhoro ũcio, akiuga atĩrĩ, “Niĩ na ũthamaki wakwa tũtirĩ na ihĩtia nginya tene mbere ya Jehova ũhoro-inĩ wa thakame ya Abineri mũrũ wa Neri.
And he heard David from after thus and he said [am] innocent I and kingdom my from with Yahweh until perpetuity from [the] blood of Abner [the] son of Ner.
29 Thakame yake ĩrocookerera Joabu na nyũmba ya ithe yothe! Nayo nyũmba ya Joabu ndĩkanaage mũndũ ũmwe ũrĩ na kĩronda gĩkuura thakame, kana mangũ, kana mũndũ ũrĩthiiaga na mĩtĩ, kana mũndũ ũũragĩtwo na rũhiũ rwa njora, kana mũndũ wagĩte irio.”
Let them whirl over [the] head of Joab and to all [the] house of father his and may not he be cut off from [the] house of Joab [one who] suffers a discharge and [one who] has a skin disease and [one who] takes hold on the spindle and [one who] falls by the sword and [one] lacking of bread.
30 (Joabu na Abishai mũrũ wa nyina mooragire Abineri tondũ nĩooragĩte Asaheli mũrũ wa nyina wao mbaara-inĩ kũu Gibeoni.)
And Joab and Abishai brother his they killed Abner on that he had killed Asahel brother their at Gibeon in the battle.

And he said David to Joab and to all the people which [was] with him tear garments your and gird yourselves sackcloth and mourn before Abner and the king David [was] walking after the bier.
32 Nao magĩthika Abineri kũu Hebironi, nake mũthamaki akĩrĩra aanĩrĩire hau mbĩrĩra-inĩ ya Abineri. O nao andũ othe makĩrĩra.
And they buried Abner in Hebron and he lifted up the king voice his and he wept to [the] grave of Abner and they wept all the people.
33 Mũthamaki akĩina icakaya rĩĩrĩ nĩ ũndũ wa Abineri: “Abineri nĩaragĩrĩirwo nĩgũkua ta andũ arĩa moinaga watho?
And he lamented the king because of Abner and he said ¿ like [the] death of a fool will he die Abner.
34 Moko maku matiarĩ moohe, namo magũrũ maku matiarĩ moohe na nyororo. Wagũire o ta mũndũ ũrĩa ũgũũaga mbere ya andũ arĩa aaganu.” Nao andũ othe makĩrĩra rĩngĩ nĩ ũndũ wake.
Hand your not [were] bound and feet your not to bronze fetters they were brought near as falls before sons of injustice you have fallen and they repeated all the people to weep on him.
35 Ningĩ andũ othe magĩũka na makĩringĩrĩria Daudi arĩe irio gũtanatuka, no Daudi akĩĩhĩta na mwĩhĩtwa, akiuga atĩrĩ, “Ngai arothũũra, o na anjĩke ũũru makĩria, ingĩcama irio kana kĩndũ kĩngĩ riũa rĩtanathũa!”
And it came all the people to make to eat David bread while still day and he swore an oath David saying thus may he do to me God and thus may he add that except before goes the sun I will taste bread or all anything.
36 Nao andũ acio othe maakĩona ũrĩa gwathiĩ magĩkena; ti-itherũ, maũndũ mothe marĩa mũthamaki eekire nĩmamakenirie.
And all the people they paid regard and it was good in view their like all that he did the king in [the] eyes of all the people it was good.
37 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio andũ othe na Isiraeli guothe makĩmenya mũthenya ũcio atĩ mũthamaki ndaarĩ na itemi ũhoro-inĩ wa gĩkuũ kĩa Abineri mũrũ wa Neri.
And they knew all the people and all Israel on the day that that not it was from the king to kill Abner [the] son of Ner.
38 Ningĩ mũthamaki akĩĩra andũ ake atĩrĩ, “Kaĩ mũtaramenya atĩ mũndũ mũnene na ũrĩ igweta mũno nĩarĩkĩtie gũkua ũmũthĩ thĩinĩ wa Isiraeli?
And he said the king to servants his ¿ not do you know that a leader and a great [man] he has fallen the day this in Israel.
39 Na rĩrĩ, ũmũthĩ, o na gũkorwo ndĩmũitĩrĩrie maguta nduĩke mũthamaki, ndirĩ na hinya, nao ariũ aya a Zeruia marĩ na hinya mũno kũngĩra. Jehova arorĩhia mwĩki ũũru kũringana na ciĩko ciake njũru!”
And I this day [am] weak and [am] anointed king and the men these [the] sons of Zeruiah [are too] hard for me may he repay Yahweh to [the] doer of the evil according to evil his.
