< II Samuel 15 >

1 Naaramid a kalpasan daytoy a nangisagana ni Absalom iti bukodna a karwahe ken kabkabalio, agraman iti 50 a lallaki nga agtaray iti sangoananna.
After this, Absalom prepared a chariot and horses for himself, and fifty men to run before him.
2 Masapa a bumangon ni Absalom ket agtakder iti igid ti dalan nga agturong iti ruangan iti siudad. No mapan ti siasinoman nga addaan iti saan a pagkikinnaawatan a paokom iti ari, ayaban isuna ni Absalom ket ibagana, “Iti ania a siudad iti naggapuam?” Ket sumungbat ti lalaki, “Daytoy adipenmo ket manipud iti maysa kadagiti tribu ti Israel.”
Absalom rose up early, and stood beside the way of the gate. When any man had a suit which should come to the king for judgment, then Absalom called to him, and said, “What city are you from?” He said, “Your servant is of one of the tribes of Israel.”
3 Iti kasta ibaga ni Absalom kenkuana, “Kitaem, naimbag ken nasayaat ti kasom, ngem awan ti inikkan ti ari iti pannakabalin a dumngeg iti kasom.”
Absalom said to him, “Behold, your matters are good and right; but there is no man deputized by the king to hear you.”
4 Innayon pay ni Absalom, “Tarigagayak a maysaak la koma nga ukom a naisaad iti daga, tapno mabalin koma nga umay kaniak ti tunggal tao nga addaan iti saan a pagkikinnaawatan wenno pakaseknan, ket mabalin a maipaayko kenkuana iti hustisia!”
Absalom said moreover, “Oh that I were made judge in the land, that every man who has any suit or cause might come to me, and I would do him justice!”
5 Iti kasta no adda tao nga umasideg kenni Absalom tapno agdayaw kenkuana, iyunnat ni Absalom ti imana ken iggamanna isuna ken agekanna isuna.
It was so, that when any man came near to bow down to him, he stretched out his hand, took hold of him, and kissed him.
6 Kastoy a wagas ti inaramid ni Absalom kadagiti amin nga Israel a mapan iti ari tapno paukom. Isu a naibaw-ing ni Absalom dagiti puso dagiti tattao ti Israel.
Absalom did this sort of thing to all Israel who came to the king for judgment. So Absalom stole the hearts of the men of Israel.
7 Ket naaramid kalpasan ti uppat a tawen nga imbaga ni Absalom iti ari, “Pangngaasim ta palubosannak a mapan tapno tungpalek ti insapatak kenni Yahweh idiay Hebron.
At the end of forty years, Absalom said to the king, “Please let me go and pay my vow, which I have vowed to the LORD, in Hebron.
8 Ta nagsapata daytoy adipenmo idi agnanaedak idiay Gesur idiay Aram, a kinunak, 'No iyegnakto manen ni Yahweh idiay Jerusalem, agrukbabakto ngarud kenni Yahweh.”'
For your servant vowed a vow while I stayed at Geshur in Syria, saying, ‘If the LORD shall indeed bring me again to Jerusalem, then I will serve the LORD.’”
9 Isu a kinuna ti ari kenkuana, “Inka a sitatalna.” Timmakder ngarud ni Absalom ket napan idiay Hebron.
The king said to him, “Go in peace.” So he arose and went to Hebron.
10 Ngem kalpasanna nangibaon ni Absalom kadagiti espia kadagiti amin a tribu ti Israel, kinunana, “Apaman a mangngegyo ti uni iti trumpeta, masapul ngarud nga ibagayo, 'Ni Absalom ti ari idiay Hebron.”
But Absalom sent spies throughout all the tribes of Israel, saying, “As soon as you hear the sound of the trumpet, then you shall say, ‘Absalom is king in Hebron!’”
11 Kakuyog ni Absalom iti naawis a dua gasut a lallaki manipud iti Jerusalem. Napanda iti kinainosenteda, a saanda nga ammo iti aniaman a panggep ni Absalom.
Two hundred men went with Absalom out of Jerusalem, who were invited, and went in their simplicity; and they did not know anything.
12 Bayat ti panangidaton ni Absalom, nangibaun isuna iti napan kenni Ahitofel iti ilina a Gilo. Mammagbaga isuna ni David. Napigsa ti yaalsa ni Absalom, ta agtultuloy nga umad-ado dagiti tattao a sumursurot kenkuana.
Absalom sent for Ahithophel the Gilonite, David’s counselor, from his city, even from Giloh, while he was offering the sacrifices. The conspiracy was strong, for the people increased continually with Absalom.
13 Napan kenni David ti maysa a mensahero a nagkuna, “Sumursurot kenni Absalom dagiti puso dagiti tattao ti Israel.”
A messenger came to David, saying, “The hearts of the men of Israel are after Absalom.”
14 Kinunana ngarud ni David kadagiti amin nga adipenna a kaduana iti Jerusalem, “Tumakderkayo ta pumanawtayo, wenno awan kadatayo ti makalibas kenni Absalom. Agsaganakayo ta pumanawtayo a dagus, wenno makamatannatayo a sidadaras, ket iyegna iti rigat kadatayo ken darupenna iti siudad babaen iti tadem iti kampilan.”
David said to all his servants who were with him at Jerusalem, “Arise! Let’s flee, or else none of us will escape from Absalom. Hurry to depart, lest he overtake us quickly and bring down evil on us, and strike the city with the edge of the sword.”
15 Kinuna ti adipen ti ari iti ari, “Adtoy, nakasaganan dagiti adipenmo a mangaramid iti aniaman nga ikeddeng ti apomi nga ari.”
The king’s servants said to the king, “Behold, your servants are ready to do whatever my lord the king chooses.”
16 Pimmanaw ti ari agraman ti pamiliana a simmurot kenkuana, ngem nangibati ti ari iti sangapulo a babbai a kinabbalayna, a mangaywan iti palasio.
The king went out, and all his household after him. The king left ten women, who were concubines, to keep the house.
17 Kalpasan a rimmuar ti ari ken dagiti amin a tattao a simmurot kenkuana, nagsardengda iti maudi a balay.
The king went out, and all the people after him; and they stayed in Beth Merhak.
18 Kimmuyog kenkuana a nagna dagiti amin a soldadona, ken napan iti sangoananna amin dagiti Cereteos, ken amin dagiti Peleteos, ken amin dagiti Geteos - 600 a lallaki a simmurot kenkuana manipud Gat.
All his servants passed on beside him; and all the Cherethites, and all the Pelethites, and all the Gittites, six hundred men who came after him from Gath, passed on before the king.
19 Kalpasanna, kinuna ti ari kenni Ittai a Geteo, “Apay a simmurotka met kadakami? Agsublika ken makipagnaedka kenni Ari Absalom, ta maysaka a ganggannaet ken napapanawka. Agsublika iti bukodmo a lugar.
Then the king said to Ittai the Gittite, “Why do you also go with us? Return, and stay with the king; for you are a foreigner and also an exile. Return to your own place.
20 Gapu ta idi kalmanka laeng a pimmanaw, apay a pagalla-allaenka a kaduadakami? Saanko pay nga ammo no sadino iti papanak. Isu nga agsublika ket iyawidmo dagiti kailiam. Sapay koma ta kumuyog kenka ti kinamanangngaasi ken kinapudno.”
Whereas you came but yesterday, should I today make you go up and down with us, since I go where I may? Return, and take back your brothers. Mercy and truth be with you.”
21 Ngem simmungbat ni Ittai ket kinunana, “Iti nagan ni Yahweh nga adda iti agnanayon, ken ti apok nga ari, pudno nga iti aniaman a lugar a papanan ti apok nga ari, isu met ti papanan daytoy adipenmo, uray no ti kaipapananna ket pagbiagak wenno pakatayak.”
Ittai answered the king and said, “As the LORD lives, and as my lord the king lives, surely in what place my lord the king is, whether for death or for life, your servant will be there also.”
22 Isu a kinuna ni David kenni Ittai, “Ituloyyo ngaruden ken kumuyogkayo kadakami.” Kimmuyog ngarud a nagna ni Ittai a Geteo iti ari, ken dagiti amin a kakaduana a lallaki ken amin dagiti pamiliana a kaduana.
David said to Ittai, “Go and pass over.” Ittai the Gittite passed over, and all his men, and all the little ones who were with him.
23 Nagdung-aw dagiti amin a pagilian ket bimmallasiw amin a tattao iti Tanap ti Cedron, ket bimmallasiw met mismo ti ari. Nagdalliasat amin dagiti tattao iti dalan nga agturong iti let-ang.
All the country wept with a loud voice, and all the people passed over. The king also himself passed over the brook Kidron, and all the people passed over toward the way of the wilderness.
24 Ket adda met uray ni Zadok agraman dagiti amin a Levita, awit-awitda ti Lakasa ti Tulag ti Dios. Indissoda ti Lakasa ti Tulag ti Dios, ket kalpasanna nakikadua kadakuada ni Abiatar. Nagurayda agingga a nakaruar amin dagiti tattao iti siudad.
Behold, Zadok also came, and all the Levites with him, bearing the ark of the covenant of God; and they set down God’s ark; and Abiathar went up until all the people finished passing out of the city.
25 Kinuna ti ari kenni Zadok, “Awitem nga isubli ti Lakasa iti Dios idiay siudad. No makasarakak iti pabor iti imatang ni Yahweh, isublinakto ditoy ket ipakitana manen kaniak ti Lakasa ken ti lugar a pagnanaedanna.
The king said to Zadok, “Carry God’s ark back into the city. If I find favor in the LORD’s eyes, he will bring me again, and show me both it and his habitation;
26 Ngem no ibagana, 'Saanak a maay-ayo kenka, kitaem, adtoyak, aramidenna kaniak aniaman nga ipagarupna a naimbag.
but if he says, ‘I have no delight in you,’ behold, here I am. Let him do to me as seems good to him.”
27 Kinuna pay ti ari kenni Zadok a padi, “Saanka kadi a mammadto? Agsublika iti siudad a sitatalna, ken ikuyogmo ti dua a putotmo a lallaki, a ni Ahimaas, ken ni Jonatan a puto a lalaki ni Abiatar.
The king said also to Zadok the priest, “Are not you a seer? Return into the city in peace, and your two sons with you, Ahimaaz your son and Jonathan the son of Abiathar.
28 Kitaem, agurayakto idiay pagballasiwan iti Araba agingga a dumteng ti sao nga aggapu kenka a mangipakaammo kaniak.”
Behold, I will stay at the fords of the wilderness until word comes from you to inform me.”
29 Insubli ngarud ni Zadok ken ni Abiatar ti Lakasa ti Dios idiay Jerusalem, ket nagnaedda sadiay.
Zadok therefore and Abiathar carried God’s ark to Jerusalem again; and they stayed there.
30 Ngem simmang-at ni David a saka-saka ken agsangsangit idiay Bantay dagiti Olibo, ken inabbungotanna ti ulona. Tunggal tao kadagiti tattao a kaduana ket inabbungotanna iti ulona, ket simmang-atda nga agsangsangit kabayatan iti pannagnada.
David went up by the ascent of the Mount of Olives, and wept as he went up; and he had his head covered and went barefoot. All the people who were with him each covered his head, and they went up, weeping as they went up.
31 Maysa ti nangibaga kenni David a kunana, “Maysa met ni Ahitofel kadagiti nakipag-alsa ken ni Absalom.” Isu nga inkararag ni David, O Yahweh, pangngaasim ta pagbalinem a kinamaag ti balakad ni Ahitofel.”
Someone told David, saying, “Ahithophel is among the conspirators with Absalom.” David said, “LORD, please turn the counsel of Ahithophel into foolishness.”
32 Naaramid nga idi nakadanon ni David iti tapaw ti dalan, nga isu ti nagdaydayawanda iti Dios kadagiti naglabas a tiempo, immay a simmabat kenkuana ni Cusai nga Arkita a naray-ab ti kagayna ken tapok-tapok iti ulona.
When David had come to the top, where God was worshiped, behold, Hushai the Archite came to meet him with his tunic torn and earth on his head.
33 Kinuna ni David kenkuana, “No makipagdalliasatka kaniak, ket agbalinka laeng a padagsen kaniak.
David said to him, “If you pass on with me, then you will be a burden to me;
34 Ngem no agsublika iti siudad ken ibagam kenni Absalom, “Agbalinakto nga adipenmo, apok nga ari, a kas iti panagbalinko nga adipen iti amam iti naglabas a tiempo, iti kasta ita adipennakon,' ket, riribukemto koma ti balakad ni Ahitofel, a maipaay kaniak.
but if you return to the city, and tell Absalom, ‘I will be your servant, O king. As I have been your father’s servant in time past, so I will now be your servant; then will you defeat for me the counsel of Ahithophel.’
35 Ken saanto kadi a kaduam sadiay ni Sadok ken Abiatar a papadi? Isu nga aniaman a mangngegmo idiay palasio iti ari, masapul nga ibagam kenni Sadok ken Abiatar a papadi.
Do not you have Zadok and Abiathar the priests there with you? Therefore whatever you hear out of the king’s house, tell it to Zadok and Abiathar the priests.
36 Kitaem a kaduada dagiti dua a putoda a lallaki, ni Ahimaas, a puto a lalaki ni Sadok, ken Jonatan, a puto a lalaki ni Abiatar. Masapul nga ibaonmo kaniak babaen kadagiti imada ti amin a banag a mangngegam.
Behold, they have there with them their two sons, Ahimaaz, Zadok’s son, and Jonathan, Abiathar’s son. Send to me everything that you shall hear by them.”
37 Napan ngarud iti siudad ni Cusai, a gayyem ni David, apagisu met a simmangpet ken simrek ni Absalom idiay Jerusalem.
So Hushai, David’s friend, came into the city; and Absalom came into Jerusalem.
