2 Samoela 20

1 Ary sendra nisy lehilahy iray tena ratsy fanahy teo, Seba no anarany, zanak’ i Bikry Benjamita; ary nitsoka ny anjomara izy sady niantso hoe: Isika tsy manana anjara amin’ i Davida na lova amin’ ny zanak’ i Jese; samia mody any amin’ ny lainy avy, ry Isiraely ô.

Then there was come thither a wicked man (named Sheba the sonne of Bichri, a man of Iemini) and hee blew the trumpet, and saide, Wee haue no part in Dauid, neither haue we inheritance in the sonne of Ishai: euery man to his tents, O Israel.

2 Ka dia samy niara-nandao an’ i Davida ny lehilahy amin’ ny Isiraely ka nanaraka an’ i Seba, zanak’ i Bikry; fa ny lehilahy amin’ ny Joda no nifikitra tamin’ ny mpanjakany hatrany Jordana ka hatrany Jerosalema.

So euery man of Israel went from Dauid and followed Sheba the sonne of Bichri: but the men of Iudah claue fast vnto their King, from Iorden euen to Ierusalem.

3 Ary nony tonga tao an-tranony tany Jerosalema Davida mpanjaka, dia nalainy ny vaditsindranony folo vavy izay navelany hiandry trano tao, ka nataony tao an-trano fiambenana ary nomeny fivelomana, fa tsy nandriany intsony. Ka dia nambenana tao mandra-pahafatiny ireo ka velona tsy nanam-bady intsony.

When Dauid then came to his house to Ierusalem, the King tooke the ten women his concubines, that hee had left behinde him to keepe the house, and put them in warde, and fed them, but lay no more with them: but they were enclosed vnto the day of their death, liuing in widowhode.

4 Ary hoy ny mpanjaka tamin’ i Amasa: Vorio ny lehilahy amin’ ny Joda ho eto amiko amin’ ny hateloana, ary aoka mba ho eto koa ny tenanao.

Then sayde the King to Amasa, Assemble me the men of Iudah within three dayes, and be thou here present.

5 Ary dia lasa Arnasa namory ny Joda, fa nandiso ny fotoan’ andro nomeny azy izy.

So Amasa went to assemble Iudah, but hee taried longer then the time which he had appoynted him.

6 Ary hoy Davida tamin’ i Abisay: Ankehitriny izao dia Seba, zanak’ i Bikry no ahitantsika loza mihoatra noho Absaloma; koa ento ny mpanomponao ny tomponao, ka enjeho izy, fandrao mahazo tanàna mimanda ka tsy ho azontsika.

Then Dauid sayd to Abishai, Now shall Sheba the sonne of Bichri doe vs more harme then did Absalom: take thou therefore thy lords seruants and follow after him, lest he get him walled cities, and escape vs.

7 Ary dia nivoaka hanenjika azy ny olon’ i Joaba sy ny miaramila mpiambina andriana ary ny lehilahy mahery rehetra; dia nivoaka avy tany Jerosalema ireo hanenjika an’ i Seba, zanak’ i Bikry.

And there went out after him Ioabs men, and the Cherethites and the Pelethites, and all the mightie men: and they departed out of Ierusalem, to follow after Sheba the sonne of Bichri.

8 Fa nony tonga tao amin’ ilay vato lehibe tao Gibeona izy, dia avy Amasa nitsena azy; ary ny akanjo fiadian’ i Joaba, ilay niakanjoany, dia nofehezina taminy, ary teo amboniny teo am-balahany no nisy ny fehin-tsabany ambamin’ ny tranony; ary nony nandeha izy, dia latsaka ny sabatra.

When they were at the great stone, which is in Gibeon, Amasa went before them, and Ioabs garment, that hee had put on, was girded vnto him, and vpon it was a sword girded, which hanged on his loynes in the sheath, and as hee went, it vsed to fall out.

9 Ary hoy Joaba tamin’ i Amasa: Tsara ihany va ianao, ry rahalahy? Dia noraisin’ i Joaba tamin’ ny tànany ankavanana ny somotr’ i Amasa horohany.

And Ioab sayde to Amasa, Art thou in health, my brother? and Ioab tooke Amasa by the beard with the right hand to kisse him.

10 Fa Amasa tsy nanahinahy ny sabatra teny an-tànan’ i Joaba, kanjo nasiany tamin’ ny kibony izy, ka dia nivaroraka tamin’ ny tany ny tsinainy, ary tsy nasiany intsony, fa matiny tamin’ izay. Ary Joaba sy Abisay rahalahiny nanenjika an’ i Seba, zanak’ i Bikry.

But Amasa tooke no heede to the sworde that was in Ioabs hande: for therewith he smote him in the fift rib, and shed out his bowels to the ground, and smote him not the second time: so he dyed. then Ioab and Abishai his brother followed after Sheba the sonne of Bichri.

11 Ary ny zatovon’ i Joaba anankiray nijanona teo anilan’ ny faty ka nanao hoe: Izay miandany amin’ i Joaba sy Davida dia aoka hanaraka an’ i Joaba.

And one of Ioabs men stoode by him, and saide, He that fauoureth Ioab, and hee that is of Dauids part, let him go after Ioab.

12 Ary Amasa nihosin-drà teo anaty lalambe. Ary raha hitan-dralehilahy fa nijanona ny olona rehetra, dia nafindrany niala teo amin’ ny lalambe ho any an-tsaha ny fatin’ i Amasa ka nosaronany lamba, nony hitany fa nijanona izay rehetra mandalo azy.

And Amasa wallowed in blood in the mids of the way: and when the man sawe that all the people stood still, he remooued Amasa out of the way into the fielde, and cast a cloth vpon him, because he saw that euery one that came by him, stoode still.

13 Ary nony nafindrany niala teo amin’ ny lalambe izy, dia nizotra nanaraka an’ i Joaba ny olona rehetra hanenjika an’ i Seba, zanak’ i Bikry.

When hee was remoued out of the way, euerie man went after Ioab, to follow after Sheba the sonne of Bichri.

14 Ary izy nandeha namaky ny firenen’ Isiraely rehetra hatrany Abela sy Beti-maka sy ny an’ ny Berita rehetra; ary nivory ireo, ka dia mba lasa nanaraka azy.

And he went through all the tribes of Israel vnto Abel, and Bethmaachah and all places of Berim: and they gathered together, and went also after him.

15 Ary dia tonga izy ka nanao fahirano azy teo Abela sy Beti-maka, ary nanandratra tovon-tany tandrifin’ ny tanàna izy, ka teo ivelany manolotra ny manda no nitoerany; ary ny olona izay nomba an’ i Joaba dia namely nandrava ny manda.

So they came, and besieged him in Abel, neere to Bethmaachah: and they cast vp a mount against the citie, and the people thereof stood on the ramper, and al the people that was with Ioab, destroyed and cast downe the wall.

16 Ary nisy vehivavy hendry tao an-tanàna niantso hoe: Mihainoa, mihainoa e; masìna ianareo, lazao amin’ i Joaba hoe: Mankanesa erỳ aminy, hono, ianao, fa misy holazainy aminao.

Then cried a wise woman out of the citie, Heare, heare, I pray you, say vnto Ioab, Come thou hither, that I may speake with thee.

17 Ary nony efa mby tao akaiky izy, dia hoy ravehivavy: Hianao va no Joaba? Dia hoy izy: Eny, izaho no izy. Ary hoy ravehivavy taminy: Mihainoa ny teniko mpanompovavinao. Dia hoy izy: Mihaino aho izao.

And when hee came neere vnto her, the woman said, Art thou Ioab? And he answered, Yea. And she said to him, Heare the wordes of thine handmaid. And he answered, I do heare.

18 Ary hoy ravehivavy: Izao no fitenin’ ny olona taloha: Aoka hanadina ao Abela izy; koa araka izany ny nahavitany raharaha.

Then shee spake thus, They spake in the olde time, saying, They shoulde aske of Abel. and so haue they continued.

19 Izaho dia isan’ ny tia fihavanana sady olona mahatoky eto amin’ ny Isiraely; fa ianao kosa mitady handrava renivohitra eto amin’ ny. Isiraely, koa ahoana no hamongoranao ny lovan’ i Jehovah?

I am one of them, that are peaceable and faithful in Israel: and thou goest about to destroy a citie, and a mother in Israel: why wilt thou deuoure the inheritance of the Lord?

20 Ary Joaba namaly hoe: Sanatria dia sanatria amiko izay handripaka sy handringana.

And Ioab answered, and said, God forbid, God forbid it me, that I should deuoure, or destroy it.

21 Tsy izany tsy akory; fa misy lehilahy avy amin’ ny tany havoan’ i Efraima, Seba no anarany, zanak’ i Bikry, izay efa nanainga tanana hikomy amin’ i Davida mpanjaka; koa izy ihany no atolory ahy, dia hiala amin’ ny tanàna aho. Ary hoy ravehivavy tamin’ i Joaba: Indro, ny lohany atsipy eny aminao eny ankoatry ny manda.

The matter is not so, but a man of mout Ephraim (Sheba ye sonne of Bichri by name) hath lift vp his had against ye King, euen against Dauid: deliuer vs him onely, and I will depart from the citie. And the woman saide vnto Ioab, Beholde, his head shalbe throwen to thee ouer the wall.

22 Dia lasa nanatona ny olona rehetra tamin’ ny fahendreny ravehivavy. Dia notapahin’ ireo ny lohan’ i Seba, zanak’ i Bikry, ka natsipiny teny amin’ i Joaba. Ary Joaba nitsoka ny anjomara, ka dia niala tamin’ ny tanàna ny olona samy ho any amin’ ny lainy avy. Ary Joaba niverina nankany Jerosalema ho any amin’ ny mpanjaka.

Then the woman went vnto all the people with her wisedome, and they cut off the head of Sheba the sonne of Bichri, and cast it to Ioab: the he blewe the trumpet, and they retired from the citie, euery man to his tent: and Ioab returned to Ierusalem vnto the King.

23 Ary Joaba no komandin’ ny miaramila rehetra tamin’ ny Isiraely; ary Benaia, zanak’ i Joiada, no mpifehy ny miaramila mpiambina andriana;

Then Ioab was ouer all the hoste of Israel, and Benaiah the sonne of Iehoiada ouer the Cherethites and ouer the Pelethies,

24 ary Adorama no komandin’ ny mpanao fanompoana; ary Josafata, zanak’ i Ahiloda, no mpitadidy ny raharaham-panjakana;

And Adoram ouer the tribute, and Ioshaphat the sonne of Ahilud the recorder,

25 ary Seva no mpanoratra; ary Zadoka sy Abiatara no mpisorona;

And Sheia was Scribe, and Zadok and Abiathar the Priests,

26 ary Ira Jairita kosa no mpanolo-tsaina an’ i Davida.

And also Ira the Iairite was chiefe about Dauid.
