2 Samue 16

1 Hagi Deviti'a ananteti onasi'a vugamanu ategeno, Mefiboseti eri'za ne' Siba'a Devitina tutagiha hunte'naku eme avega antenegeno ome ke'ne. Hagi agra tare donkifi 200'a breti konagi, fiki raga 100'a konagi, ante hagage hu'nea waini raga'a 100'a konagi huno erineno meme afumofo akru'are tro hu'naza tintafempi waini tina erino emani'ne.

And when David had gone a little way past the top of the slope, Ziba, the servant of Mephibosheth, came to him, with two asses on which were two hundred cakes of bread and a hundred stems of dry grapes and a hundred summer fruits and a skin of wine.

2 Hagi kini ne Deviti'a Sibana antahigeno, amazana na'a hu'zane? Higeno Siba'a kenona huno, ama donki afutrena naga kamo'za zanagumpi mani'za vugahaze. Hagi bretine zafa raganena venenemo'za negahaze. Hagi ama waini tina hagage kopima nevanageno tamavresrama hanigeta negahaze.

And David said to Ziba, What is your reason for this? And Ziba said, The asses are for the use of the king's people, and the bread and the fruit are food for the young men; and the wine is for drink for those who are overcome by weariness in the waste land.

3 Hagi kini ne'mo ete antahigeno, inantega kva vahekamofo negeho Mefiboseti'a mani'ne? Higeno Siba'a huno, Agra agesama antahiana menina negeho kini trara namigahaze huno Jerusalemi mani'ne.

And the king said, And where is your master's son? And Ziba said, He is still at Jerusalem: for he said, Today Israel will give back to me the kingdom of my father.

4 Hagi kini ne'mo'a Sibana asamino, E'i menina maka Mefiboseti zantamina ete'na kagri kamue. Higeno Siba'a kenona huno, kini ne' ranimoka kagri'ma kavesisia zana amne hugahue.

Then the king said to Ziba, Truly everything which was Mephibosheth's is yours. And Ziba said, I give honour to my lord, may I have grace in your eyes, my lord, O king!

5 Hagi anama hute'za kini ne'mo'a Bahurimi kumate'ma vigeno, mago ne'mo tutagiha hunte'ne. Ana nera Soli nagapinti ne' Gera nemofo Simeikino ne-eno Devitina kesuno e'ne.

And when King David came to Bahurim, a man of Saul's family named Shimei, the son of Gera, came out from there, calling curses after him.

6 Hagi Simei'a have knonu matevuno Devitina neheno, mika Deviti'enema vu'naza vahera nezamaheno, Devitima kegavama hunte'za kanti kamama vu'naza avate hanave sondia vahe'enena zamahe'ne.

And he sent stones at David and at all the king's servants and at all the people and at all the men of war by his side, on the right hand and on the left.

7 Hagi Simei'a Devitima kema nesuno'a amanage hu'ne, Kagra vahe ahe fri vava hunka vahe kora eri taginka haviza hu'nana vahe mani'nananki, amafintira maniganenka vuo.

And Shimei said, with curses, Be gone, be gone, you man of blood, you good-for-nothing:

8 Hagi kagra Soli naga'ma zamahe frinka, Soli kini trama eri'nana zante menina Ra Anumzamo'a kagrira nona hunegante. Hagi menina negamofo Absalomu kini eri'zana hanare amigenka, frenka ne'ane. Na'ankure kagra vahe zamahe frinka vahe kora eritagi ne' mani'nanku, e'inahu hazenkea eri'ne.

The Lord has sent punishment on you for all the blood of the family of Saul, whose kingdom you have taken; and the Lord has given the kingdom to Absalom, your son: now you yourself are taken in your evil, because you are a man of blood.

9 Anante Zeruia nemofo Abisai'a kini ne' asamino, nahigeno ami fri'nea kramo'a kini ne'moka e'inahu kea kasuno ne-e! Natrege'na ome ahena agenopa akafri'neno.

Then Abishai, the son of Zeruiah, said to the king, Is this dead dog to go on cursing my lord the king? let me go over and take off his head.

10 Hianagi kini ne'mo huno, Ra Anumzamo'ma huntenigeno huhavizama hunenante'na Zeruia nemofoga antahio, tagra magozana hugara osu'none.

And the king said, What have I to do with you, you sons of Zeruiah? Let him go on cursing, for the Lord has said, Put a curse on David, and who then may say, Why have you done so?

11 Anante Deviti'a Abisaine mika eri'za vahe'anena zamasamino, Nagra'ama kasente'noa mofavremo Absalomu'ma nahe'za nehanigeno'a, Benzameni naga'mo'za amane nahegahaze. Hagi Ra Anumzamo asamigeno nehianki, mago'zana osu atrenkeno huhavizana hunanteno.

And David said to Abishai and to all his servants, You see how my son, the offspring of my body, has made designs against my life: how much more then may this Benjamite do so? Let him be, and let him go on cursing; for the Lord has given him orders.

12 Hagi nagriku'ma haviza hunane huno'ma huhavizama hunanterera, Ra Anumzamo'a nenageno, Agra'a nona huno asomura hunante'nie.

It may be that the Lord will take note of my wrongs, and give me back good in answer to his cursing of me today.

13 Hagi Deviti'ene naga'amo'za nevazageno Simei'a anagami kaziga nevuno, Devitina kea nesuno kugusopa kateno avufina netreno have kanona atreno aheno vu'ne.

So David and his men went on their way: and Shimei went by the hillside parallel with them, cursing and sending stones and dust at him.

14 Hagi kini ne'ene agranema vu'naza vahe'mo'za zamavaresra hige'za Jodani tinte unehanati'za anante umanigasa hu'naze.

And the king and his people came tired to Jordan, and took their rest there.

15 Hagi ana'ma nehazageno'a, Absalomu'ene maka eri'za vahe'anema Jerusalema ehanati'zageno'a Ahitofeli'a agrane e'ne.

And Absalom and the men of Israel came to Jerusalem, and Ahithophel was with him.

16 Hagi Deviti rone'a Akati kumateti ne' Husai'a Absalomuna eme tutagiha hunteno anage hu'ne, Kini nera kagra zazate kinia manigahane!

Then Hushai the Archite, David's friend, came to Absalom and said, Long life to the king, long life to the king!

17 Hianagi Absalomu'a Husaina antahigeno, Deviti nefuga mani'nananki, kagra nahigenka agranena ovu mani'nane? E'i knare kavukvara negafuna huontane.

And Absalom said, Is this your love for your friend? why did you not go with your friend?

18 Higeno Husai'a kenona huno, Ra Anumzamo'ene maka Israeli vahe'mo'za huhamprintesaza kini nemofo agoraga nagra manigahue.

And Hushai said to Absalom, Not so; I am for that man whom the Lord and this people and all the men of Israel have taken as king, and I will take my place with him.

19 Hagi nagra negafa antahintahima ami eri'za vahe mani'noankna hu'na kagri eri'za vahe manigahue.

And more than this! where is my place as a servant? is it not before his son? as I have been your father's servant, so will I be yours.

20 Hagi Absalomu'a Ahitofelina asamino, Na'a hugahumpi antahi'zana namio.

Then Absalom said to Ahithophel, Give your opinion now, what are we to do?

21 Higeno Ahitofeli'a Absalomuna hunteno, negafana henka a'nezaga'ane umaso. Na'ankure agra nonku'ma kegava hanazegu zamatreno vu'ne. E'inama hananke'za Israeli vahe'mo'za antahisu'za, tamage hunka negafana ha'renentane nehu'za, kagranema mani'naza vahe'mo'za hanaveti'za kagritega antegahaze.

And Ahithophel said to Absalom, Go in to your father's women who are here looking after his house; then all Israel will have the news that you are hated by your father, and the hands of your supporters will be strong.

22 Higeno nomofo agofetu seli no Absalomuna kintageno, nefama zamatreno vu'nea a'nenea mika Israeli vahe zamavuga zamanteno mase'ne. (2 Samuel 12:11-12.)

So they put up the tent for Absalom on the top of the house, and Absalom went in to his father's women before the eyes of all Israel.

23 Hagi ana knafina Ahitofeli'a Ra Anumzamofontegati'ma antahintahima erinoma hiankna ke nehigeno Absalomu'a kote'ma Deviti'ma hu'neankna huno amagera ante'ne.

In those days the opinions of Ahithophel were valued as highly as if through him a man might get direction from God; so were they valued by David as much as by Absalom.
