2 Samue 20

1 Hagi Benzameni nagapintira mago nera Sibakino, kefo avu'ava'ene ne' mani'ne. Ana nera Bikri nemofokino miko Israeli vahe'mo'za antahisazegu ufe nereno amanage hu'ne, Israeli veamota, Deviti'a tagri nagapinti nera omani'neanki, atreta nontamirega vuta eta hiho. Ama Jesi nemofo'a magore huno erisantima haresuna zana ontamigahie.

Now there happened to be a worthless man, whose name was Sheba, the son of Bikri, a Benjamite. And he blew the trumpet, and said, "We have no share in David, nor do we have any inheritance in the son of Jesse. Every man to his tents, Israel."

2 Hige'za Israeli vahe'mo'za Devitina atre'za Siba'ene vu'naze. Hianagi Juda vahe'mo'za Jodani tintetira Devitina avariri'za Jerusalemi vu'naze.

So all Israel deserted David and followed Sheba the son of Bikri, but the men of Judah stayed by their king, from the Jordan to Jerusalem.

3 Hagi Deviti'a Jerusalemima uhanatino noma'ama ome enerino nemanino'a, 10ni'a henka a'nema'ama kuma kegava hiho hige'za Jerusalemima mani'naza a'neramina zamavareno mago nompi zamantege'za mani'nageno ne'zane mago'azana nezamino mago'a vahe huzmanteg'za kegava huzmante'naze. Hianagi ana a'nea ome zamanteno omasege'za, ana a'nemo'za kento ane manizaza hu'za mani'ne'za ufri'naze.

Then David came to his palace at Jerusalem, and the king took the ten women his secondary wives, whom he had left to keep the palace, and placed them under guard, and provided for them, but did not go in to them. So they were kept in confinement until the day of their death, living as widows.

4 Hagi Deviti'a amanage huno Amasana asmi'ne, 3'a knamofo agu'afi kagrane Juda vene'nea ke hunka amare eme atru hiho!

Then the king said to Amasa, "Summon the men of Judah to me within three days, and be present here yourself."

5 Higeno Amasa'a vuno mika Juda vene'nea ome kehu atru hu'neanagi, ana eri'zama ome eriana kini ne'mo'ma hu'nea kna agatereno za'zate ana eri'zana eri'ne.

So Amasa went to summon Judah together, but he delayed beyond the set time that had been allotted him.

6 Hagi Deviti'a amanage huno Abisaiana asmi'ne, Absalomu'ma hurante'nea hara agatereno Bekri nemofo Siba'a menina ra ha' hurantegahie. E'ina hu'negu ru tatreno mago'a hanavenentake vihu me'ne'nia rankumapi ufre'nigi, hankave sondia vaheni'a zamavarenka arotago hunka vuo.

David said to Abishai, "Now Sheba the son of Bikri will do us more harm than Absalom did. Now then, take your lord's servants with you and pursue after him, otherwise he will get himself to fortified cities and escape from us."

7 Hagi Abisaia'ene Joapukea mika sondia vahe'zniane, kini ne'ma kegavama hunentaza hanavenentake sondia vahe'ene Kireti vahe'ene Peliti vahe'enena nezamavareke, Jerusalemi kumara atre'za Bikri nemofo Sibanku ome hakeku vu'naze.

So there went out after him Joab's men and the Cherethites and the Pelethites, and all the warriors. And they went out from Jerusalem to pursue Sheba son of Bikri.

8 Hagi ra have me'nere Gibioni kumate vazageno, anante Amasa'a ome tutagiha' huzamante'ne. Hagi Amasama azeri frufra hunaku Joapuma nevigeno'a, ha' kukena atanineno zaza bainati kazina amu nofipi rusi hu'nea bainati kazimo'a evurami'ne.

When they were at the great stone that is in Gibeon, Amasa came to meet them. And Joab was wearing his military attire, and over it was a belt with a dagger in its sheath fastened at his waist, and as he advanced it fell out.

9 Hagi Joapu'a Amasana musenke hunteno, nenafuga kagra knare hu'nano? Nehuno Joapu'a ome agazafeno antako hunte'naku'ma hiaza huno tamaga azanura agi' azokate azeri'ne.

And Joab said to Amasa, "Is it well with you, my brother?" Then Joab took Amasa by the beard with his right hand to kiss him.

10 Hagi Joapu'ma osi kazima azampima eri'neana Amasa'a onkeno, kegava osigeno Joapu'a ana osi kazinu rimpa reraragufegeno rimpamo'a mopafi herafirami'ne. Hagi Joapu'a ru'enena akasino ore'neanki, magoke zupa Amasana kazina regeno fri'ne. Joapu'ene negna Abisaikea Bikri nemofo Sibana rotago huke vu'na'e.

But Amasa did not notice the sword that was in Joab's hand. And he stabbed him with it in the abdomen, so that his intestines spilled out on the ground, and he did not do it to him again. Thus he died. Then Joab and Abishai his brother pursued Sheba son of Bikri.

11 Hagi Joapu kazigati mago sondia ne'mo otino, Amasa'ma frino me'nere oti'neno kezatino, Joapune Devitintegama ante'naku'ma hanamoka Joapu avaririo.

And one of Joab's young men stood beside Amasa and said, "Whoever is the one that favors Joab and whoever belongs to David, follow Joab."

12 Hagi Amasa'a ka amu'nompi mase'neno, agra'a kora timpi maseno hapa nerege'za, sondia vahe'mo'za, anante eme oti'ne'za uruha nehazageno, kezamatia ne'mo'a Amasana kampinti avazu huno hozafi ome netreno, nakare ku erino refitente'ne.

But Amasa lay covered with his blood in the midst of the road, and anyone who came by, seeing him, stopped. So when the man saw that all the people stopped, he dragged Amasa from the road into a field and threw a garment over him.

13 Hagi Amasa avufgama kampinti'ma eri atrege'za, maka vahe'mo'za Joapuna avariri'za Bikri nemofo Sibana ahenaku vu'naze.

When he was removed from the road, all the people followed Joab in pursuit of Sheba son of Bikri.

14 Hagi Siba'a mika Israeli naga nofi'mofo mopafi vugatereno, Abel-Betmaka vu'ne. Hagi Beriti nagara agri nagaki'za agrane hagerafi'za kuma agu'a ufre'naze.

He went through all the tribes of Israel to Abel of Beth Maacah, and all the Bikrites assembled and followed him.

15 Hagi Joapu sondia vahe'mo'za Abeli kumara avazagi kagite'za, kumamofo have kegina tavaontera mopa kate'za ante marerite'za, anante mani'ne'za ana have kegina nefragazageno,

And all the people who were with Joab came and besieged him in Abel of Beth Maacah. And they built a siege ramp against the city, and it stood against the rampart, and they were battering the wall so that it would collapse.

16 ana kumapinti mago knare antahintahine a'mo kezanke huno, Tamagesa anteta antahiho, nagra Joapu'ene keaga hugahuanki kehinkeno erava'o hino.

Then a wise woman called out from the wall, "Listen, listen. Please tell Joab to come here so that I may speak to him.

17 Higeno ana kema nentahino, Joapu'ma erava'o higeno, ana amo antahigeno, Kagra Joapugo higeno Joapu'a kenona huno, Izo nagre. Higeno ana a'mo'a asamino, eri'za a'kamo'na hanua nanekea antahio, higeno Joapu'a huno, Izo nentahue.

So he approached her, and the woman said, "Are you Joab?" And he replied, "I am." Then she said, "Listen to the words of your servant." And he replied, "I'm listening."

18 Hagi ana a'mo huno, Korapara amanage hu'za nehazane, mago'a hazanke'zama eri antefatgoma hunakura, Abeli kumate kva vahete vunka keaga eri antefatgo hugahane hunege'za ana hu'za keaga erinte fatgo nehazane.

Then she said, "In the past they used to say, 'Let them inquire in Abel and in Dan whether

19 Hagi tagra Israeli vahe'mota ha' osu fru vahe mani'nonanki, nahigeta Israeli mopafima agima me'nea rankumara eri haviza hu'za nehaze. Na'a higeta Ra Anumzamofo zana eri haviza hu'za nehaze?

that which the faithful of Israel established has been carried out.' You seek to destroy a city that is a mother in Israel. Why do you want to swallow up the inheritance of YHWH?"

20 Higeno Joapu'a kenona huno, I'o, nagra ama kumara eri haviza hu'za nosue.

Joab answered, "Far be it from me that I should swallow up or destroy.

21 Hagi Efraemi agona mopafinti ne' Bekri nemofo Siba'a kini ne' Devitina ha'renteteno freno kumatamifi emani'ne. Hagi e'ina neke avrenamige'na atre'na va'neno. Hagi ana a'mo Joapuna kenona hunteno, Menintfa ana ne'mofo agenopa akafrita kuma keginamofo fegi'a mate vanunketa kegahaze.

That is not the case. But a man of the hill country of Ephraim, Sheba the son of Bikri, has rebelled against king David. Give up him alone and I will withdraw from the city." Then the woman said to Joab, "Look, his head will be thrown to you from the wall."

22 Anante ana a'mo'a knare antahizama'a mika vahe ome zamasamige'za, ana vahe'mo'za Bekri nemofo Sibana ahe'za agenopa'a akafri'za Joapu ome mate vumi'naze. Ana higeno Joapua ufereno sondia vahe'a zamazeri atru huteno huzmantege'za nozmirega nevazageno, Joapu'a kini netega Jerusalemi vu'ne.

Then she spoke to all the city with her wise advice, and they cut off the head of Sheba son of Bikri and threw it out to Joab. So he blew the trumpet, and they were dispersed from him, each returning to his home. And Joab went back to Jerusalem to the king.

23 Hagi Joapu'a ete mika Israeli sondia vahe'mokizmia vugote kvazimi manigeno, Jehoiata nemofo Benaia'a, Kereti vahe'ene Peleti vahe'ma Devitinte'ma kva hunentaza hanavenentake sondia vahe'tamimofo kva ne' mani'ne.

Now Joab was in command of the entire army of Israel; and Benaiah the son of Jehoiada was in command of the Cherethites and in command of the Pelethites;

24 Hagi Atoramu'a kazokzo eri'zama e'neri'za vahete kva mani'ne. Hagi Ahiruti nemofo Jehosafati'a kamani avontafe kegava hu'ne.

and Adoniram was in command of the forced labor; and Jehoshaphat the son of Ahilud was recorder;

25 Hagi Siba'a avoma kreno eri fatgo hu eri'za kegava hu'ne. Hagi Abiatake Zadokukea pristi netre mani'na'e.

and Shisha was scribe; and Zadok and Abiathar were priests;

26 Hagi Jaira nagapinti ne Ira'a, Devitina agri'a pristi ne' mani'ne.

and also Ira the Jairite was David's priest.
