Luo Samuel 13

1 Oasr sie tamtael lal Absalom, wen natul David, su arulana kato ac el soenna payuk. Inel pa Tamar. Amnon, sie pac sin wen natul David, el arulana lungse Tamar.

It happened after this, that Absalom the son of David had a beautiful sister, whose name was Tamar; and Amnon the son of David loved her.

2 Yoklana lungse lal nu sel, oru el masak mweyen el nunku mu Tamar el ac koflana muta yorol. Na mweyen Tamar el virgin se, tia filfilla elan ku in osun nu sin mukul.

Amnon was so troubled that he fell sick because of his sister Tamar; for she was a virgin; and it seemed hard to Amnon to do anything to her.

3 Tusruktu oasr kawuk se lal Amnon, su mwet na kutasrik in nunak. El pa Jonadab wen natul Shammah, tamulel lal David.

But Amnon had a friend, whose name was Jonadab, the son of Shimeah, David's brother. Now Jonadab was a very crafty man.

4 Jonadab el fahk nu sel Amnon, “Kom wen sruhk nutin tokosra, a len nukewa nga liye tuh kom ngetnget in asor. Mea se sis an?” Na Amnon el topuk, “Nga arulana lungse Tamar, tamtael lal Absalom, a nga Absalom papa sefanna, nina luo.”

He said to him, "Why, son of the king, are you so sad from day to day? Won't you tell me?" Amnon said to him, "I love Tamar, my brother Absalom's sister."

5 Jonadab el fahk nu sel, “Fahla ona ke bed kiom an, in mu kom mas. Ke papa tomom el tuku in liye kom, na kom fahk nu sel, ‘Nunak munas, sap Tamar tamtael luk, elan tuku kiteyu mongo. Nga lungse elan tuku orala ma nak uh yen nga ac ku in liyal we uh, ac elan sifacna kiteyuwi pac.’”

Jonadab said to him, "Lie down on your bed, and pretend to be sick. When your father comes to see you, tell him, 'Please let my sister Tamar come and give me bread to eat, and dress the food in my sight, that I may see it, and eat it from her hand.'"

6 Na Amnon el oru mu el mas, ac el som ona ke bed kial ah. Tokosra David el som in liyal, ac Amnon el fahk nu sel, “Nunak munas, supwalma Tamar elan tuku orala ekasr cake ah nak inge yen nga ac ku in liyal we, ac elan sifacna kiteyuwi.”

So Amnon lay down and faked being sick. When the king came to see him, Amnon said to the king, "Please let my sister Tamar come, and make me a couple of cakes in my sight, that I may eat from her hand."

7 Ouinge David el supwala kas inge nu yorol Tamar, su muta in lohm sin tokosra, “Fahla nu lohm sel Amnon ac orala kutu mongo nal.”

Then David sent home to Tamar, saying, "Go now to your brother Amnon and prepare food for him."

8 El som nu we, tuh na Amnon el oan ke bed kial ah. Na Tamar el eis kutu flao takmwek ac sang orauk kutu cake yen Amnon el ku in liyal we. El munanla cake ah,

So Tamar went to her brother Amnon's house; and he was lying down. And she took dough, and kneaded it, and made cakes while he watched, and baked the cakes.

9 ac eisla liki pan ah, sang elan mongo, tuh el srangesr. Amnon el fahk, “Sap mwet nukewa in illa.” Ac elos nukewa som.

She took the pan, and poured them out before him; but he refused to eat. Amnon said, "Have all men leave me." Every man went out from him.

10 Na el fahk nu sel Tamar, “Use cake an nu ke bed kiuk uh ac kiteyuwi.” Na Tamar el eis cake ah, ac som nu yorol.

Amnon said to Tamar, "Bring the food into the room, that I may eat from your hand." Tamar took the cakes which she had made, and brought them into the room to Amnon her brother.

11 Ac ke el sang nu sel, Amnon el sruokilya ac fahk, “Fahsru wiyu oan.”

When she had brought them near to him to eat, he took hold of her, and said to her, "Come, lie with me, my sister."

12 Na Tamar el fahk, “Mo! Nimet akkohsyeyu in oru kain ouiya fohkfok sacn! Arulana koluk!

She answered him, "No, my brother, do not force me. For no such thing ought to be done in Israel. Do not do this folly.

13 Ku nga ac ngetnget fuka nga fin forfor ye mutun mwet uh? Ac kom, kom ac fah arulana oakasla in facl Israel. Nunak munas, kaskas nu sel tokosra. Nga lulalfongi mu el ku in eisyuwot nu sum.”

I, where would I carry my shame? And as for you, you will be as one of the fools in Israel. Now therefore, please speak to the king; for he will not withhold me from you."

14 A Amnon el tia lohng ma el fahk, na mweyen el ku lukel, el sruinkuilya ac oan yorol.

However he would not listen to her voice; but being stronger than she was, he overpowered her and raped her.

15 Na Amnon el srungalla na upa. Srunga lal kacl uh alukela lungse lal kacl meet ah, ac el fahk nu sel, “Tiok!”

Then Amnon hated her with intense hatred, so that the hatred with which he hated her was greater than the love with which he had loved her. And Amnon said to her, "Get up, go away."

16 Tamar el fahk, “Mo. Kom fin lisyula ouingan, koluk se inge ac tuh yohk liki na ma koluk se kom tufahna orala ah.” Tusruktu Amnon el tiana lohngol.

And Tamar said to him, "Don't, my brother, for this latter evil in sending me away is greater than the former thing that you did to me." But he would not listen to her.

17 El pangon mwet kulansap se lal sifacna ac fahk, “Usla mutan se inge liki ye mutuk! Tolulla nu likinum uh ac lakiya srungul an!”

Then he called the young man who served him, and said, "Send this one away from me, and bolt the door after her."

18 Mwet kulansap sac sisella ac lakiya srungul sac. Tamar el nukum nuknuk loeloes se ac loes pac pao ah. In pacl ingo, pa inge nuknuk lun sie mutan fisrak su soenna payuk.

Now she was wearing an ornamented robe, for this was what the king's virgin daughters used to wear. Then his servant brought her out, and bolted the door after her.

19 El sang apat nu fin sifal, ac seseya nuknuk loeloes lal, ac afinya mutal ke paol, ac fahsr na tung som.

And Tamar took ashes and put them on her head, and tore the long robe she was wearing. And she put her hand on her head and went away, crying aloud as she went.

20 Ke Absalom tamulel lal, el liyalak el siyuk, “Ya Amnon el akkolukye kom? Nunak munas, ma louk, nimet sang in arulana aktoasrye kom. El ma pac wiom, na pa kom in tia fahk nu sin kutena mwet kac.” Ouinge Tamar el muta in lohm sel Absalom, ac el asor ac mukaimtal.

And her brother Absalom said to her, "Has Amnon your brother been with you? Be quiet for now, my sister. He is your brother. Do not take this too seriously." So Tamar, devastated, lived in her brother Absalom's house.

21 Ke Tokosra David el lohng ke ma sikyak inge, el foloyak.

But when king David heard of all these things, he was very angry. But he did not inflict pain on the spirit of his son Amnon, because he loved him, for he was his firstborn.

22 Ac Absalom el arulana srungalla Amnon ke sripen el orekma koluk nu sel Tamar ma loul, na el tiana sifil kas nu sel.

Absalom spoke to Amnon neither good nor bad; for Absalom hated Amnon, because he had violated his sister Tamar.

23 Yac luo toko ah, Absalom el sang sheep natul ah in kalkul in acn Baal Hazor, apkuran nu ke siti Ephraim. Na el suli mukul nukewa nutin tokosra tuh elos in som nu we.

It happened after two full years, that Absalom had sheepshearers in Baal Hazor, which is beside Ephraim: and Absalom invited all the king's sons.

24 El som nu yorol Tokosra David ac fahk, “O leum luk, nga sang sheep nutik uh in kalkulla, na nga siyuk lah kom, ac mwet pwapa lom an ku in tuku nu ke pacl in kufwa ah?”

Absalom came to the king, and said, "See now, your servant has sheepshearers. Please let the king and his servants go with your servant."

25 Na tokosra el topuk, “Mo, wen nutik. Ac fah yokla elya lom kacsr kut nukewa fin fahsrot.” Absalom el kwafe na, tuh tokosra el tiana wi ma el siyuk ah, ac el sap Absalom elan som.

The king said to Absalom, "No, my son, let us not all go, lest we be burdensome to you." But he pleaded with him; however he would not go, but blessed him.

26 Na Absalom el fahk, “Kwal, fin upa, kom ku in nunak munas fuhlella Amnon tamulel luk, elan tuku?” Ac tokosra el siyuk, “Efu ku elan wi?”

Then Absalom said, "If not, please let my brother Amnon go with us." The king said to him, "Why should he go with you?"

27 Na Absalom el kwafe nwe ke na tokosra el tari lela Amnon ac mukul wial nukewa in welul som. Absalom el akoo mongo na lulap se, fal nu sin tokosra.

But Absalom pleaded with him, and he let Amnon and all the king's sons go with him. And Absalom prepared a feast like a king's feast.

28 Ac el fahk nu sin mwet kulansap lal ah, “Liye na, tuh ke pacl se Amnon el nimnim nwe sruhila, nga fah fahkla sap se, na komtal unilya. Nimet sangeng. Ma na luk in fosrngakin ma se inge. Komtal in pulaik ac tia sensen.”

And Absalom commanded his servants, saying, "Watch Amnon until he is in a good mood from the wine, and when I tell you, 'Strike Amnon,' then kill him. Do not be afraid. Haven't I commanded you? Be strong and brave."

29 Ouinge mwet kulansap lal Absalom elos oru oana ma el sapkin, ac unilya Amnon. Wen nukewa natul David saya elos sroang nu fin kosro natulos, ac kaingla.

So the servants of Absalom did to Amnon as Absalom had commanded. Then all the king's sons got up, and each mounted his mule and fled.

30 Ke elos srakna fahsr inkanek lalos in folok nu yen selos ah, fwackyang nu sel David mu, “Absalom el uniya nufon wen nutum ah. Tia sie selos lula!”

And it happened, while they were on the way, that the news came to David, saying, "Absalom has struck down all the king's sons, and there is not one of them left."

31 Tokosra el tuyak ac seya nuknuk lal ke el arulana asor, ac el putati nu infohk uh. Mwet kulansap lal ma welul in pacl sac elos seya pac nuknuk lalos.

Then the king got up and tore his clothes and lay down on the ground. And all the servants who were standing around him also tore their clothes.

32 A Jonadab wen natul Shammah, tamulel lal David, el fahk, “Leum fulat, elos tia uniya nufon wen nutum ah. Amnon mukena pa misa. Kalem na lah Absalom el tuh akoo nunak se lal inge e in len se ma Amnon el akkolukyalla Tamar, ma lohl.

But Jonadab the son of Shimeah, David's brother, said, "My lord the king must not think that they have killed all the young men, the king's sons, for only Amnon is dead. For this has been Absalom's plan since the day that he raped his sister Tamar.

33 Na pa nimet kom lulalfongi pweng se ma fahk mu wen nutum nukewa misa ah. Amnon mukena anwuki.”

Now therefore do not let my lord the king take the thing to his heart, to think that all the king's sons are dead; for Amnon only is dead."

34 In pacl se na ingan Absalom el kaingla. Na mwet mweun se su topang in acn sac, el liye u na lulap se oatui fineol uh me, ke inkanek nu Horonaim. El som nu yorol tokosra ac fahkak ma el liye.

But Absalom fled. And the young man who kept the watch lifted up his eyes and looked, and he saw many men coming on the road behind him from the side of the mountain in the descent. And the watchman came and told the king, and said, "I have seen many men coming from the Horonan road by the side of the mountain."

35 Jonadab el fahk nu sel David, “Wen nutum an pa tuku ingan, oana ke nga fahk ah.”

Jonadab said to the king, "Look, the king's sons are coming. It is as your servant said."

36 Ke el tufahna safla in fahk ma inge, na wen natul David ah utyak, ac elos mutawauk in tung, ac David ac mwet pwapa lal ah wi pac tung na upa.

It happened, as soon as he had finished speaking, that look, the king's sons came, and lifted up their voice, and wept. The king also and all his servants wept bitterly.

37 Na Absalom el kaingla ac som nu yurin Tokosra Talmai, wen natul Ammihud, lun acn Geshur. David el tung kacl Amnon, wen natul, pacl na loeloes.

And David mourned for his son every day.

38 Absalom el muta in acn Geshur ke yac tolu.

And Absalom fled and went to Talmai the son of Ammihud, king of Geshur, and was there three years.

39 Na ke David el tila asor ke misa lal Amnon, el arulana ke liyalak Absalom, wen natul.

And the spirit of the king longed to go to Absalom, for he was consoled about the death of Amnon.
