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.
Now after these things Absalom made himself chariots, and horsemen, 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.”
And Absalom rising up early stood by the entrance of the gate, and when any man had business to come to the king’s judgment, Absalom called him to him, and said: Of what city art thou? He answered, and said: Thy servant is of such a tribe 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.”
And Absalom answered him: Thy words seem to me good and just. But there is no man appointed by the king to hear thee. And Absalom said:
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!”
O that they would make me judge over the land, that all that have business might come to me, that I might do them 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.
Moreover when any man came to him to salute him, he put forth his hand, and took 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.
And this he did to all Israel that came for judgment, to be heard by the king, and he enticed 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.
And after forty years, Absalom said to king David: Let me go, and pay my vows 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 thy servant made avow, when he was in Gessur of Syria, saying: If the Lord shall bring me again into Jerusalem I will offer sacrifice to the Lord.
9 Isu a kinuna ti ari kenkuana, “Inka a sitatalna.” Timmakder ngarud ni Absalom ket napan idiay Hebron.
And king David said to him: Go in peace. And 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.”
And Absalom sent spies into all the tribes of Israel, saying: As soon as you shall hear the sound of the trumpet, say ye: Absalom reigneth 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.
Now there went with Absalom two hundred men out of Jerusalem that were called, going with simplicity of heart, and knowing nothing of the design.
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 also sent for Achitophel the Gilonite, David’s counsellor, from his city Gilo. And while he was offering sacrifices, there was a strong conspiracy, and the people running together increased with Absalom.
13 Napan kenni David ti maysa a mensahero a nagkuna, “Sumursurot kenni Absalom dagiti puso dagiti tattao ti Israel.”
And there came a messenger to David, saying: All Israel with their whole heart followeth 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.”
And David said to his servants, that were with him in Jerusalem: Arise and let us flee: for we shall not escape else from the face of Absalom: make haste to go out, lest he come and overtake us, and bring ruin upon us, and smite 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.”
And the king’s servants said to him: Whatsoever our lord the king shall command, we thy servants will willingly execute.
16 Pimmanaw ti ari agraman ti pamiliana a simmurot kenkuana, ngem nangibati ti ari iti sangapulo a babbai a kinabbalayna, a mangaywan iti palasio.
And the king went forth, and all his household on foot: and the king left ten women his concubines to keep the house:
17 Kalpasan a rimmuar ti ari ken dagiti amin a tattao a simmurot kenkuana, nagsardengda iti maudi a balay.
And the king going forth and all Israel on foot, stood afar off from the house:
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.
And all his servants walked by him, and the bands of the Cerethi, and the Phelethi, and all the Gethites, valiant warriors, six hundred men who had followed him from Geth on foot, went 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.
And the king said to Ethai the Gethite: Why comest thou with us? return and dwell with the king, for thou art a stranger, and art come out of thy 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.”
Yesterday thou camest, and today shalt thou be forced to go forth with us? but I shall go whither I am going: return thou, and take back thy brethren with thee, and the Lord will shew thee mercy, and truth, because thou hast shewn grace and fidelity.
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.”
And Ethai answered the king, saying: As the Lord liveth, and as my lord the king liveth: in what place soever thou shalt be, my lord, O king, either in death, or in life, there will thy servant be.
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.
And David said to Ethai: Come, and pass over. And Ethai the Gethite passed, and all the men that were with him, and the rest of the people.
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.
And they all wept with a loud voice, and all the people passed over: the king also himself went over the brook Cedron, and all the people marched towards the way that looketh to the desert.
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.
And Sadoc the priest also came, and all the Levites with him carrying the ark of the covenant of God, and they set down the ark of God: and Abiathar went up, till all the people that was come out of the city had done passing.
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.
And the king said to Sadoc: Carry back the ark of God into the city: if I shall find grace in the sight of the Lord, he will bring me again, and he will shew me it, and his tabernacle.
26 Ngem no ibagana, 'Saanak a maay-ayo kenka, kitaem, adtoyak, aramidenna kaniak aniaman nga ipagarupna a naimbag.
But if he shall say to me: Thou pleasest me not: I am ready, let him do that which is good before 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.
And the king said to Sadoc the priest: O seer, return into the city in peace: and let Achimaas thy son, and Jonathan the son of Abiathar, your two sons, be with you.
28 Kitaem, agurayakto idiay pagballasiwan iti Araba agingga a dumteng ti sao nga aggapu kenka a mangipakaammo kaniak.”
Behold I will lie hid in the plains of the wilderness, till there come word from you to certify me.
29 Insubli ngarud ni Zadok ken ni Abiatar ti Lakasa ti Dios idiay Jerusalem, ket nagnaedda sadiay.
So Sadoc and Abiathar carried back the ark of God into Jerusalem: and they tarried 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.
But David went up by the ascent of mount Olivet, going up and weeping, walking barefoot, and with his head covered, and all the people that were with them, went up with their heads covered weeping.
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.”
And it was told David that Achitophel also was in the conspiracy with Absalom, and David said: Infatuate, O Lord, I beseech thee, the counsel of Achitophel.
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.
And when David was come to the top of the mountain, where he was about to adore the Lord, behold Chusai the Arachite, came to meet him with his garment rent and his head covered with earth.
33 Kinuna ni David kenkuana, “No makipagdalliasatka kaniak, ket agbalinka laeng a padagsen kaniak.
And David said to him: If thou come with me, thou wilt 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 thou return into the city, and wilt say to Absalom: I am thy servant, O king: as I have been thy father’s servant, so I will be thy servant: thou shalt defeat the counsel of Achitophel.
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.
And thou hast with thee Sadoc, and Abiathar the priests: and what thing soever thou shalt hear out of the king’s house, thou shalt tell it to Sadoc 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.
And there are with them their two sons Achimaas the son of Sadoc, and Jonathan the son of Abiathar: and you shall send by them to me every thing that you shall hear.
37 Napan ngarud iti siudad ni Cusai, a gayyem ni David, apagisu met a simmangpet ken simrek ni Absalom idiay Jerusalem.
Then Chusai the friend of David went into the city, and Absalom came into Jerusalem.
