2 Samue 14

1 Hagi Zeruia nemofo Joapu'ma antahiama kini ne'mo'ma Absalomuma kenigu tusizama higeno'a,

And Joab son of Zeruial knows that the heart of the king [is] on Absalom,

2 Joapua mago'a vahe huzamantege'za Tekoa kumate vu'za, mago knare antahi'zane a' ome avre'za e'naze. Hagi Joapu'a ana ara asamino, Zamasunku hu'zama nentanizankna kukena haviza hunka, masavena ofrenka, ko'ma vahe frinegeno asunku huno za'zakna mani'nea a'mo'ma nehiaza huo.

and Joab sends to Tekoah, and takes a wise woman from there, and says to her, “Please feign yourself a mourner, and now put on garments of mourning, and do not anoint yourself with oil, and you have been as a woman mourning for the dead [for] these many days,

3 Ana hutesunka kini nete vunka ama hanua kea ome asamio, anage nehuno Joapu'a kini ne'ma asaminia nanekea ana ara asami'ne.

and you have gone to the king, and spoken to him, according to this word”; and Joab puts the words into her mouth.

4 Higeno Tekoati a'mo'a kini netema uhanatino'a, ome kepri humino avugati mopafi umase'neno amanage hu'ne, Muse hugantoanki kini ne'moka naza huo!

And the woman of Tekoah speaks to the king, and falls on her face to the earth, and pays respect, and says, “Save, O king.”

5 Higeno kini ne'mo'a antahigeno, nankna hazenke me'negenka nehane? Higeno ana a'mo kenona huno, Nagrira neneve'a frige'na kento a' mani'noe.

And the king says to her, “What do you [want]?” And she says, “I [am] truly a widow woman, and my husband dies,

6 Hagi eri'za a'kamo'na tare ne' mofavre zanante'noankine hoza agupofi ha' ome nehakeno, vahe'mo'a zanazeri amnea osigeke, mago'mo'a mago'mofona ahe fri'ne.

and your maidservant has two sons; and both of them strive in a field, and there is no deliverer between them, and one strikes the other, and puts him to death;

7 Hagi anama higeno'a maka tagri naga'mo'za oti'za nefuma ahe fria zante, ana risera ahe frisunkeno, nefazana erisanti oharegahie hu'za hu'naze. Hagi zamagra magoke mofavreni'a ahe fri'za nehazankino, nenave agine, naga'amofo zamagima erino maniga vahera ama mopafina omanigahie.

and behold, the whole family has risen against your maidservant, and say, Give up him who strikes his brother, and we put him to death for the life of his brother whom he has slain, and we also destroy the heir; and they have quenched my coal which is left—so as not to set a name and remnant on the face of the ground for my husband.”

8 Hagi kini nemo'a ana ara asamino, Nagra ama ana kegaga eri ante fatgo hugahuanki, kumakarega vuo.

And the king says to the woman, “Go to your house, and I give charge concerning you.”

9 Hianagi Tekoati amo'a kini nera asamino, Kini ne' ranimoka, atregeno ana knazamo'a nagrite'ene nenfa nagate'ene meno. Hagi kagrane naga ka'anena knazana e'origahaze.

And the woman of Tekoah says to 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.”

10 Hagi kini ne'mo'a huno, Iza'o ana nanekema hugantenimofona avrenka nagrite egeno, mago'enena ke hakarea huoganteno.

And the king says, “He who speaks to you, and you have brought him to me, then he does not add to come against you anymore.”

11 Hagi ana a'mo'a kenona huno, Muse hugantoanki, kini ne'moka Ra Anumzana kagri Anumzankamofo agifi huvempa hunka hugeno, vahe'mo'za mofavre'nia ahe ofriho. Hagi kini ne'mo'a kenona huno, Tamage hu'na kasefa'ma huno'ma mani'nea Ra Anumzamofo agifi huankino mago'mo'a ana mofavrea mago'azana huontegahie.

And she says, “Please let the king remember by your God YHWH, that the redeemer of blood does not add to destroy, and they do not destroy my son”; and he says, “YHWH lives; if there falls [even one] hair of your son to the earth.”

12 Anante ana a'mo'a huno, Natrege'na mago'ane kini nemoka kantahiga'neno, higeno kini ne'mo'a huno, Amne huo.

And the woman says, “Please let your maidservant speak a word to my lord the king”; and he says, “Speak.”

13 Higeno ana a'mo'a kini ne' Devitina eri ante ama huno asami'ne, Nahigenka Anumzamofo vahetera e'inahu antahintahia retro hu'nane? Hagi menima nagri'ma nasami'na nanekea, kagraka'a havizama hu'nana zana eri ama hunka keaga hugantane. Na'ankure negamofoma kuma'ma atre'noma fregenka omesiema hu'nana mofavrea, ete avrankeno ome'ne.

And the woman says, “And why have you thought thus concerning the people of God? Indeed, the king is speaking this thing as a guilty one, in that the king has not brought back his outcast;

14 Na'ankure mopafima tima tagiramige'za ete ana tima e'orizankna huta frigahune. Hu'neanagi vahe'mota havizama hunkeno'a, Anumzamo'a tahe nofrianki, mago'a kanku hakeno atre'zama frazage'za omesnazema hu'naza vahera, ete agrarega zamavare tava'o nehie.

for we surely die, and [are] as water which is running down to the earth, which is not gathered, and God does not accept a person, and has devised plans in that the outcast is not outcast by Him.

15 Hagi kini ne' ranimoka, naza hugahane hu'na kagrite e'noe. Na'ankure vahe'mo'za nazeri kore hazage'na, kini ne'mo'a naza hugahie hu'na nagra hu'noe.

And now that I have come to speak this word to my lord the king, [it is] because the people made me afraid, and your maidservant says, Please let me speak to the king; it may be the king does the word of his handmaid,

16 Hagi kini ne'moka, eri'za a'kamo'na kea antahinaminka Anumzamo'ma tamigeta erisantima hare'nona mopafintira nagri'ene nenamofonema tahe fanenema hu'za nehaza vahe zamazampintira tagu'vazigahane.

for the king listens 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,

17 Hu'negu kini ne' ranimoka kemo'a narimpa fru namigahie. Na'ankure kini ne'moka kagra Anumzamofo ankero kna hu'nenka, havizane knare'zanena refako nehane. Hagi Ra Anumzana, kagri Anumzamo'a kagri'ene manisnie.

and your maidservant says, Please let 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 your God YHWH is with you.”

18 Higeno kini ne'mo huno, nagra mago zanku kantahige'za huanki kagra mago'zana erifra okinka nasamio, higeno ana a'mo'a huno, kini ne' ranimoka amane nantahigo.

And the king answers and says to the woman, “Please do not hide from me the thing that I am asking you”; and the woman says, “Please let my lord the king speak.”

19 Hagi kini ne'mo huno, Kagrira Joapu hugantegenka nagritera enampi? Higeno ana a'mo kenona huno, Kini nera ranimoka, nankna hu'na eri frakigahue? Hagi kagrama kasefa'ma hunka mani'nenankeno'a, mago'mo'e huno mago'azana kagritera eri fraraokigahie. Tamage, eri'za nekamo Joapu ome asamio huno hunantea ke eme kasami'noe.

And the king says, “Is the hand of Joab with you in all this?” And the woman answers and says, “Your soul lives, my lord, O king, none [turn] to the right or to the left from all that my lord the king has spoken; for your servant Joab commanded me, and he put all these words in the mouth of your maidservant.

20 Hagi agra amne anara osu'neanki, Absalomu'ma hu'nea hazenki eri fru hunaku hu'ne. Hianagi kini nemoka, Anumzamofo ankero vahekna hunka, knare'nare antahintahine vahe mani'nenka, maka'zama mopafi'ma fore'ma hiazana antahinka kenka nehane.

Your servant Joab has done this thing in order to bring around the appearance of the thing, and my lord [is] wise, according to the wisdom of a messenger of God, to know all that [is] in the land.”

21 Higeno kini ne'mo'a Joapuna asamino, Knareki kema hanazana hugahuanki vunka Absalomuna ome avrenka eno.

And the king says to Joab, “Now behold, you have done this thing; and go, bring back the young man Absalom.”

22 Hagi Joapu'a avugosaregati mopafi umaseno, ra agi nemino anage hu'ne, Kini ne' ranimoka, menina eri'za ne'kamo'na kema antahinaminka knare kavukvama hunantana zana menina antahiama hue. Na'ankure ke'ni'a antahinka hu izo hunantane.

And Joab falls on his face to the earth, and pays respect, and blesses the king, and Joab says, “Today your servant has known that I have found grace in your eyes, my lord, O king, in that the king has done the word of his servant.”

23 Anante Joapu'a Gesur vuno Absalomuna ome avreno Jerusalemi e'ne.

And Joab rises and goes to Geshur, and brings in Absalom to Jerusalem,

24 Hianagi kini ne'mo'a anage huno hanave kea hu'ne, Absalomu'a noma'arega umanigahianki, nagri navurera omegahie. Anage higeno Absalomu'a agra'a noma'afi umani'neno, kini nera eme onke'ne.

and the king says, “Let him turn around to his house, and he does not see my face.” And Absalom turns around to his house, and he has not seen the face of the king.

25 Hianagi Absalomuna Israeli vahe'mo'za husga hunte'naze. Agra asenireti'ma vuno agiare'ma urami'neana, afuhe afahera omanegeno, hentofa avufgane ne' mani'ne. Hagi magora agrikna vahera Israeli vahepina omani'naze.

And there was no man [so] beautiful in all Israel like Absalom, to praise greatly; from the sole of his foot even to his crown there was no blemish in him;

26 Agra maka kafurera magoke zupa azokara haretere hu'ne. Na'ankure ana azokamo'a kna hu'negeno'e. Hagi ana azokama erinte'za kna'ama refkoma hu'za kazana, 2 kilogremi hu'ne.

and in his shaving his head—and it has been at the end of year by year that he shaves [it], for it [is] heavy on him, and he has shaved it—he has even weighed out the hair of his head—two hundred shekels by the king’s weight.

27 Hagi Absalomu'a tagufa ne' mofavre nenteno, magoke hentofa mofa anteno agi'a Tamari'e huno ante'ne.

And there are born to Absalom three sons and one daughter, and her name [is] Tamar; she was a woman of beautiful appearance.

28 Hagi Absalomu'a tare kafu Jerusalemi kumatera mani'ne. Hianagi agra vuno kini nemofo avufina ome onke'ne.

And Absalom dwells in Jerusalem [for] two years of days, and he has not seen the face of the king;

29 Hagi Absalomu'a agri agi erino kini ne' ome keniegu Joapuna ke atrente'ne. Hianagi Joapu'a omegeno, mago'ane eri'za vahera huzmantege'za vu'nazanagi Joapu'a avesra huno ome'ne.

and Absalom sends to Joab, to send him to the king, and he has not been willing to come to him; and he sends again a second time, and he has not been willing to come.

30 Hagi Absalomu'a eri'za vahe'a huzamanteno, Joapu bali hozamo'a nagri hoza tava'onte me'neanki, teve ome taginteho huno huzmante'ne.

And he says to his servants, “See, the portion of Joab [is] by the side of mine, and he has barley there; go and burn it with fire”; and the servants of Absalom burn the portion with fire.

31 Anante Joapu'a Absalomu nontega eno, Nahigenka eri'za vaheka'a huzamantanke'za hozani'a teve ome taginte'naze?

And Joab rises and comes to Absalom in the house, and says to him, “Why have your servants burned the portion that I have with fire?”

32 Higeno Absalomu'a kenona huno, Nagra ke atregante'na, are ege'na hugantanena kini ne' ome ko hu'na huana kagra ome'nane. Hagi kagra na'ante knare'ma hu'na mani'noana kea hanke'na Gesuritira e'noe huno nagrikura hie hunka ome antahigo. Hagi anantega manuresina knare hiresine. Hagi menina natrege'na kini ne ome ka'nenkeno hazenkema hunenugeno'a nahe frino.

And Absalom says to Joab, “Behold, I sent to you, saying, Come here, and I send you to the king to say, Why have I come in from Geshur? [It was] good for me while I [was] there—and now, let me see the king’s face, and if there is iniquity in me then you have put me to death.”

33 Higeno Joapu'a kini nete vuno ana nanekea ome asamigeno, kini ne'mo'a Absalomuna ke higeno eno avugosaregati mopafi umasegeno, kini ne'mo Absalomuna antako hunte'ne.

And Joab comes to the king, and declares [it] to him, and he calls to Absalom, and he comes to the king, and bows himself to him, on his face, to the earth, before the king, and the king gives a kiss to Absalom.
