Luo Samuel 4
1 Ke Ishbosheth, wen natul Saul, el lohng lah Abner el anwuki in acn Hebron, el arulana sangeng, ac mwet Israel nukewa elos fosrnga.
And Jebosthe the son of Saul heard that Abenner the son of Ner had died in Chebron; and his hands were paralysed, and all the men of Israel grew faint.
2 Oasr mwet luo lal Ishbosheth su kol un mwet orek lokoalok. Inen mwet luo inge pa Baanah ac Rechab, wen natul Rimmon mwet Beeroth in sruf lal Benjamin. (Acn Beeroth oaoa nu ke ip lun Benjamin.
And Jebosthe the son of Saul had two men that were captains of bands: the name of the one [was] Baana, and the name of the other Rechab, sons of Remmon the Berothite of the children of Benjamin; for Beroth was reckoned to the children of Benjamin.
3 Mwet muta we meet ah elos tuh kaingla nu Gittaim, ac elos mutana we in pacl sac me.)
And the Berothites ran away to Gethaim, and were sojourners there until this day.
4 Sie pac mwet ke fita lal Saul pa Mephibosheth, wen natul Jonathan. El yac limekosr ke pacl se Saul ac Jonathan anwuki. Ke pacl se pweng ke misa laltal ah tuku Jezreel me, na mutan se ma liyalang el sraklalak ac kaing. Tuh ke sripen sulaklak lal, tulik sac putatla liki inpaol, pwanang el sukapasla.
And Jonathan Saul's son [had] a son lame of his feet, five years old, and he was [in the way] when the news of Saul and Jonathan his son came from Jezrael, and his nurse took him up, and fled; and it came to pass as he hasted and retreated, that he fell, and was lamed. And his name [was] Memphibosthe.
5 Rechab ac Baanah som nu lohm sel Ishbosheth ac sun acn we ke infulwen len, falyang nu ke pacl el eis mongla infulwen len lal.
And Rechab and Baana the sons of Remmon the Berothite went, and they came in the heat of the day into the house of Jebosthe; and he was sleeping on a bed at noon.
6 Mutan se su muta liklik wheat ke mutunoa el mwetkeli ac motulla, na Rechab ac Baanah imyak nu in lohm ah.
And, behold, the porter of the house winnowed wheat, and he slumbered and slept: and the brothers Rechab and Baana went privily into the house:
7 Eltal som nu ke nien motul lal Ishbosheth ke el motul folosuwosla, ac unilya. Na eltal pakela sifal ac us welultal, ac eltal fahsr Infahlfal Jordan fong nufon sac.
And Jebosthe was sleeping on his bed in his chamber: and they strike him, and kill him, and take off his head: and they took his head, and went all the night by the western road.
8 Eltal sang sifal nu sel Tokosra David in acn Hebron, ac fahk, “Pa inge sifal Ishbosheth wen natul Saul, mwet lokoalok lom, su tuh srike in unikomi. Misenge LEUM GOD El orala foloksak lom nu sel Saul ac fita lal.”
And they brought the head of Jebosthe to David to Chebron, and they said to the king, Behold the head of Jebosthe the son of Saul your enemy, who sought your life; and the Lord has executed for my lord the king vengeance on his enemies, as [it is] this day: even on Saul your enemy, and on his seed.
9 David el topuk nu seltal, “Inge nga orala fulahk luk ke Inen LEUM GOD moul, su moliyula liki ongoiya nukewa!
And David answered and Rechab and Baana his brother, the sons of Remmon the Berothite, and said to them, [As] the Lord lives, who has redeemed my soul out of all affliction;
10 Mwet utuk kas se su tuku nu yuruk in acn Ziklag ac fahkma lah Saul el misa, el nunku mu el us pweng wo se. Tuh nga sruokilya ac sap in anwuki el. Pa ingan ma nga sang moli pweng se el us ah!
he that reported to me that Saul was dead, even he was as one bringing glad tidings before me: but I seized him and killed him in Sekelac, to whom I ought, [as he thought], to have given a reward for his tidings.
11 A faska ma ac fah sikyak nu sin mwet koluk inge su uniya sie mwet wangin mwatal ke el motul in lohm sel sifacna! Inge nga fah foloksak nu sumtal ke komtal unilya ah, ac nga ac ikomtalla liki faclu.”
And now evil men have slain a righteous men in his house on his bed: now then I will require his blood of your hand, and I will destroy you from off the earth.
12 David el sap mwet lal in unilya Rechab ac Baanah, ac lusala paoltal ac nialtal, ac srupusrak apkuran nu ke lufin kof in acn Hebron. Elos usla sifal Ishbosheth ac pikinya inkulyuk lal Abner in acn Hebron.
And David commanded his young men, and they kill them, and cut off their hands and their feet; and they hung them up at the fountain in Chebron: and they buried the head of Jebosthe in the tomb of Abenezer the son of Ner.
