2 Samue 3

1 Hagi anantetira Deviti naga'ene Soli naga'mo'zanena za'zate hara hu'za vu'naze. Deviti naga'mo'za mago'ane hanaveti'za vazageno, Soli naga'mofo hanavemo'a ome osi osi huno vu'ne.

Now there was long war between Saul’s house and David’s house. David grew stronger and stronger, but Saul’s house grew weaker and weaker.

2 Hagi Deviti'a Hebronima mani'neno'a, ne' mofavrezaga zamante'ne. Hagi zage mofavremofo agi'a Amnonikino, Jezrili kumateti a'mo Ahinoamu kasente'ne.

Sons were born to David in Hebron. His firstborn was Amnon, of Ahinoam the Jezreelitess;

3 Hagi nampa 2 mofavrea Kiliabukino, Karmeli kumateti ne' Nebali kento a'ma Abigelima eri'nea a'mo kasente'ne. Hagi nampa 3 mofavre'a Absalomukino, Gesuri kumate kini ne'mofo mofa'mo Maka kasente'ne.

and his second, Chileab, of Abigail the wife of Nabal the Carmelite; and the third, Absalom the son of Maacah the daughter of Talmai king of Geshur;

4 Hagi nampa 4 mofavre'a Adonijakino Hagiti kasentene. Hagi nampa 5fu mofavrea Sefatiakino, Abitari kasente'ne.

and the fourth, Adonijah the son of Haggith; and the fifth, Shephatiah the son of Abital;

5 Hagi nampa 6is mofavrea Itreamukino, Egla kasente'ne. E'i ana mofavrezaga Deviti'a Hebroni mani'neno kasezamante'ne.

and the sixth, Ithream, of Eglah, David’s wife. These were born to David in Hebron.

6 Hagi ha'ma Deviti naga'ene Soli naga'enema nehaza knafina, Abna'a hanave sondia ne' Soli sondia vahepina mani'ne.

While there was war between Saul’s house and David’s house, Abner made himself strong in Saul’s house.

7 Hagi Soli'ma mago a'ma eri'neana, Aia mofa Rizpa eri'ne. Hagi Is-boseti'a Abnankura huno, nahigenka nenafa ara antenka mase'nane?

Now Saul had a concubine, whose name was Rizpah, the daughter of Aiah; and Ishbosheth said to Abner, “Why have you gone in to my father’s concubine?”

8 Hagi Is-boseti'ma hiankegura Abnana tusi arimpa ahegeno amanage hu'ne, Juda vahe'mokizmi zukake kra nagra mani'nogenka nagrira balia rugantugma nehano? Hagi maka'zama negafa Soline, naga'ane, roneanema navesinezmante'na kagri'ma kavre'na Deviti azampima ome onte'noa zante miza naminaku nehunka, ama ara azeri savri hu'nane hunka nehano?

Then Abner was very angry about Ishbosheth’s words, and said, “Am I a dog’s head that belongs to Judah? Today I show kindness to your father Saul’s house, to his brothers, and to his friends, and have not delivered you into the hand of David; and yet you charge me today with a fault concerning this woman!

9 Hagi Ra Anumzamo'ma Devitima huvempa hunte'nesia zama nagrama osanugeno'a, Anumzamo'a nagrira nazeri haviza hugahie.

God do so to Abner, and more also, if, as the LORD has sworn to David, I do not do even so to him:

10 Hagi nagra Abna'na Soli kini trara Deviti eri amisugeno, Israeli vahe'ene Juda vahe'ene Dani vahera noti kazigati vuno sauti kaziga Berseba uhanatisigeno agrake kegava hugahie.

to transfer the kingdom from Saul’s house, and to set up David’s throne over Israel and over Judah, from Dan even to Beersheba.”

11 Hagi Is-boseti'a mago kea osu'ne. Na'ankure Abnankura tusi'a koro hu'ne.

He could not answer Abner another word, because he was afraid of him.

12 Anante Abna'a ke erino vu vahete kea Devitina atrenteno anage hu'ne, Ama mopa kagri mopa me'neanki, nagri'ene kea eme huhagerafinka huvempa huge'na, nagra miko Israeli vahera zamazeri rukrahe hanena kagrite eho.

Abner sent messengers to David on his behalf, saying, “Whose is the land?” and saying, “Make your alliance with me, and behold, my hand will be with you to bring all Israel around to you.”

13 Higeno Deviti'a ana kerera anage hu'ne, Knarekita huvempa huta huhagerafigahue. Hianagi Soli mofa Mikelima kagra avrenka eme namisunka, nagri navufina kegahane.

David said, “Good. I will make a treaty with you, but one thing I require of you. That is, you will not see my face unless you first bring Michal, Saul’s daughter, when you come to see my face.”

14 Huteno Deviti'a ke erino vu vahete Is-bosetina kea atrenteno anage hu'ne, A'ni'a Mikelina avrenka eme namio. Na'ankure nagra 100'a Filistia vahe zamahe'na ko oku zamavufa anonteti mizase'noa a' mani'ne.

David sent messengers to Ishbosheth, Saul’s son, saying, “Deliver me my wife Michal, whom I was given to marry for one hundred foreskins of the Philistines.”

15 Hagi Is-boseti'a ana nanekema nentahino'a mago'a vahe huzamantege'za, Laisi nemofo Paltia nenaro Mikelina ome avre'za e'naze.

Ishbosheth sent and took her from her husband, Paltiel the son of Laish.

16 Hianagi ana ara avre'za neageno, neve'a zavineteno avaririno Bahurimi kumate egeno, Abna'a huntegeno, ete rukrahe huno kuma'arega vu'ne.

Her husband went with her, weeping as he went, and followed her to Bahurim. Then Abner said to him, “Go! Return!” and he returned.

17 Hagi Abna'a Israeli ranra vahera zamavare atru huno anage huno zamasami'ne, Kotera Devitinku kinitia manigahie huta tamagra hu'naze.

Abner had communication with the elders of Israel, saying, “In times past, you sought for David to be king over you.

18 Hagi menina ana ketamire otita anaza hiho. Na'ankure Ra Anumzamo'a Deviti huvempa hunteno, Filistia vahe zamazampinti'ene ha' vahe'tamimofo zamazampintira, Israeli vahera eri'za ne'ni'a Deviti zamagu'vazigahie hu'ne.

Now then do it! For the LORD has spoken of David, saying, ‘By the hand of my servant David, I will save my people Israel out of the hand of the Philistines, and out of the hand of all their enemies.’”

19 Hagi anante Abna'a viazamo Benzameni nagara ome ana kea nezamasamino, ete ana kea erino Devitinte Hebroni vuno, hago maka Israeli vahe'ene Benzameni naga'mo'za mago zamarimpa hu'naze huno ome asami'ne.

Abner also spoke in the ears of Benjamin; and Abner went also to speak in the ears of David in Hebron all that seemed good to Israel and to the whole house of Benjamin.

20 Hagi Abna'a 20'a vahe'ene Deviti'ma mani'nerega Hebroni kumate egeno, Deviti'a rama'a ne'za krezmante'ne.

So Abner came to David to Hebron, and twenty men with him. David made Abner and the men who were with him a feast.

21 Hagi ne'za nete'za Abna'a Devitina anage huno asami'ne, Natrege'na vu'na miko Israeli vahera rani kinimokare ome zamazeri atru hanuge'za, zamagra huvempa hu'za kagrira kini kazeri otisagenka, kagri'ma kavesiniaza hunka kegava huzamantegahane. Higeno Deviti'a Abnana atregeno rimpa frune vu'ne.

Abner said to David, “I will arise and go, and will gather all Israel to my lord the king, that they may make a covenant with you, and that you may reign over all that your soul desires.” David sent Abner away; and he went in peace.

22 Hagi Abna'ma Hebroni kuma'ma anama atreno'ma nevigeno'a, Deviti sondia vahe'ene Joapu'enena ha'ma nehazaregatira hapinti'ma eri'naza zantamina rama'aza eri'za e'naze. Hianagi Abna'a Deviti'enena Hebroni kumatera omani'ne. Na'ankure Deviti'a ko Abnana huntegeno rimpa frune vu'ne.

Behold, David’s servants and Joab came from a raid and brought in a great plunder with them; but Abner was not with David in Hebron, for he had sent him away, and he had gone in peace.

23 Hagi Joapu'ene sondia vahe'enema ehanatizage'za mago'a vahe'mo'za Joapuna asami'za, Neri nemofo Abna'a kini nete egeno, kini nemo'a magozana huonteno atregeno rimpa frune vu'ne.

When Joab and all the army who was with him had come, they told Joab, “Abner the son of Ner came to the king, and he has sent him away, and he has gone in peace.”

24 Higeno Joapu'a ame huno kini nete vuno amanage ome hu'ne, Na'a hu'nane? Abna'ma kagrite'ma egenka, nahigenka amnea atrankeno agra vu'ne?

Then Joab came to the king and said, “What have you done? Behold, Abner came to you. Why is it that you have sent him away, and he is already gone?

25 Hagi kagra antahi'nane, Neri nemofo Abna'a regavatga huno maka zama nehanaza ke'naku e'ne.

You know Abner the son of Ner. He came to deceive you, and to know your going out and your coming in, and to know all that you do.”

26 Anante Joapu'a Abnana ke atrentege'za Sira tinkerire nevige'za ome ke'za avre'za e'naze. Hagi e'i ana zama hiazana Deviti'a antahino keno osu'ne.

When Joab had come out from David, he sent messengers after Abner, and they brought him back from the well of Sirah; but David did not know it.

27 Hagi Abnama ehanatigeno'a, Joapu'a avreno rankuma kafante agri'akema kema asaminaku'ma hiaza huno avreno viazamo, negana Asahelima ahe fri'nea zanteku huno bainati kazi ome erino rimpa retragufegeno fri'ne.

When Abner had returned to Hebron, Joab took him aside into the middle of the gate to speak with him quietly, and struck him there in the body, so that he died for the blood of Asahel his brother.

28 Hagi henkama ana ke'ma Deviti'ma nentahino anage hu'ne, Nagrama kegava hu'noa vahe'mo'zane nagranena Ra Anumzamofo avufina keta antahita osu'nonankita, Neri nemofo Abna'ma fri'nea zamofo kora kumi'mofo knazamo'a tagritera omenetfa hugahie.

Afterward, when David heard it, he said, “I and my kingdom are guiltless before the LORD forever of the blood of Abner the son of Ner.

29 Hagi Abnama ahe fri'nea zamofo knazama'a Joapu'ene mika nefa naga'amo'zane erigahaze. Hagi Joapu'ene agripinti'ma fore'ma hanaza vahe'mofona namu zamarege, fugo kri erige, azompare vano huge, bainati kazinu zamahe frige, nezanku zamagatege hanige'za frigahaze.

Let it fall on the head of Joab and on all his father’s house. Let there not fail from the house of Joab one who has a discharge, or who is a leper, or who leans on a staff, or who falls by the sword, or who lacks bread.”

30 E'ina hu'negu Joapu'ene nefu Abisaikea Abnana ahe'na'e. Na'ankure agra nezanafu Asahelima Gibioni kumate'ma hapima ahe'nea zanku huke ahe'na'e.

So Joab and Abishai his brother killed Abner, because he had killed their brother Asahel at Gibeon in the battle.

31 Hagi anante Joapune maka agranema mani'naza vahera Deviti'a zamasamino, Kukenatamia tagato nehuta, tamasunku kukena huta tamasunku huta Abnankura zavira ateho. Hagi kini ne' Deviti'a vahe'ma eri'zama nevaza vahe zamefi e'ne.

David said to Joab and to all the people who were with him, “Tear your clothes, and clothe yourselves with sackcloth, and mourn in front of Abner.” King David followed the bier.

32 Hagi Abnana Hebroni ome asentageno, keri'arera kini ne'mo'a tusi zavi ome atege'za, mika'mo'za Abnankura zavi ate'naze.

They buried Abner in Hebron; and the king lifted up his voice and wept at Abner’s grave; and all the people wept.

33 Hagi kini ne'mo'a amanage huno asunku zagamera Abnantera hu'ne, Abna'a negi vahera omani'neanagi, na'a higeno neginagi vaheknara huno frie?

The king lamented for Abner, and said, “Should Abner die as a fool dies?

34 Kazantera nofira kionte'za seni nofiteti kagarera kionte'naze. Hagi kagrira kefo vahe'mo'za kahe frize. Hige'za miko vahe'mo'za Abnankura tusi zavi ate'naze.

Your hands were not bound, and your feet were not put into fetters. As a man falls before the children of iniquity, so you fell.” All the people wept again over him.

35 Anante hanina osunege'za miko vahe'mo'za e'za Devitinkura ne'zana no hu'za hu'naze. Hianagi Deviti'a huvempage huno, Zagemo'ma uorami'nenke'na ne'zama nenugeno'a, Anumzamo'a nahe frigahie.

All the people came to urge David to eat bread while it was yet day; but David swore, saying, “God do so to me, and more also, if I taste bread or anything else, until the sun goes down.”

36 Hagi miko vahe'mo'za anazama kini ne'mo'ma hiazama nege'za muse nehu'za, ko'ma hu'nea zanku'enena muse hu'naze.

All the people took notice of it, and it pleased them, as whatever the king did pleased all the people.

37 Anama hige'za miko vahe'mo'za antahi ama nehu'za, Abna'ma fri'nea zamofona kini ne' Deviti'a antahino keno osu'ne hu'za hu'naze.

So all the people and all Israel understood that day that it was not of the king to kill Abner the son of Ner.

38 Hagi anante kini ne'mo'a eri'za vahe'aramina zamasamino, menina Israeli vahepima rankva vahe'ma fri'neana tamagra antahita keta osu'nazo?

The king said to his servants, “Do not you know that a prince and a great man has fallen today in Israel?

39 Hagi Ra Anumzamo'a kini manio huno huhampri nante'neanagi, nagrira hanaveni'a omane'ne. Hagi ama Zeruia nemofo Joapu'ene Abisai'enena hanave nentake netre mani'na'ankina, nagra zanazeri rava hegara osu'noe. Hagi havi avu'ava hu'nemofona Ra Anumzamo azeri havizana hanie.

I am weak today, though anointed king. These men, the sons of Zeruiah are too hard for me. May the LORD reward the evildoer according to his wickedness.”
