2 Samoela 13
1 Ie añe, nanan-drahavave soa vintañe t’i Absalome ana’i Davide, Tamare ty añara’e; le nikokoa’ i Amnone ana’ i Davide.
And it came to pass after this, that Absalom the son of David had a fair sister, whose name was Tamar; and Amnon the son of David loved her.
2 Akore ty fioremèña’ i Amnone kanao nisiloke ty amy Tamare rahavave’e; ie mbe tsy nahavany lahy; aa le hoe nisarotse amy Amnone ty hanao ndra inoñ’ inoñ’ama’e. Fe nanan-drañetse t’i Amnone, Ionadabe ty tahina’e, ana’ i Simeà, rahalahi’ i Davide; loho nahay fañahy t’Ionadabe.
And Amnon was so vexed, that he fell sick for his sister Tamar; for she was a virgin; and Amnon thought it hard for him to do any thing to her.
But Amnon had a friend, whose name was Jonadab, the son of Shimeah David’s brother: and Jonadab was a very subtil man.
4 Le hoe re tama’e: Aa vaho akore te ihe anam-panjaka ro minìke avao handro am-pohatse? Tsy hatalili’o ahy hao? le hoe t’i Amnone ama’e: Kokoako t’i Tamare rahavave’ i Absalome.
And he said to him, Why art thou, being the king’s son, pining from day to day? wilt thou not tell me? And Amnon said to him, I love Tamar, my brother Absalom’s sister.
5 Aa le hoe t’Ionadabe ama’e: Mandrea am-pandrea’o, le manoa sare siloke; aa ie mb’eo ty rae’o hisary azo, le ano ty hoe: Ehe, ampombao mb’etoa ty rahavaveko Tamare, hamahana’e mofo ahy, naho hañalankañe mahakama añatrefako atoy, hahatreavako aze naho hihinanako an-taña’e.
And Jonadab said to him, Lay thee down on thy bed, and pretend that thou art sick: and when thy father cometh to see thee, say to him, I pray thee, let my sister Tamar come, and give me food, and prepare the food in my sight, that I may see it, and eat it at her hand.
6 Aa le nàndre eo t’i Amnone, mintse narare; le ie nitilik’ aze i mpanjakay, hoe t’i Amnone amy mpanjakay: Ehe, angao homb’ etoa ty rahavaveko Tamare hamboatse bokoboko mofo tsy ampeampe am-pahatreavako, hihinanako an-taña’e.
So Amnon lay down, and pretended that he was sick: and when the king came to see him, Amnon said to the king, I pray thee, let Tamar my sister come, and make for me a couple of cakes in my sight, that I may eat at her hand.
7 Aa le nampañitrik’ añ’ akiba’ i Tamare añe t’i Davide nanao ty hoe: Akia mb’ añ’ anjomban-drahalahi’o Amnone mb’eo, vaho añalankaño mahakama.
Then David sent home to Tamar, saying, Go now to thy brother Amnon’s house, and prepare a meal for him.
8 Aa le nimb’ añ’anjomba’ i Amnone rahalahi’e mb’eo t’i Tamare; ie nandre ao. Nandrambe koba re le trinobotrobo’e naho nanao bokoboko-mofo am-pahaisaha’e vaho natoña’e i mofoy.
So Tamar went to her brother Amnon’s house; and he was laid down. And she took flour, and kneaded it, and made cakes in his sight, and baked the cakes.
9 Rinambe’e amy zao ty finga le nazotso’e; f’ie tsy nimete nikama. Fa hoe t’i Amnone, Mienga ahy ze lahilahy. Le hene niakatse ama’e ondatio.
And she took a pan, and poured them out before him; but he refused to eat. And Amnon said, Send out all men from me. And they went out every man from him.
10 Le hoe t’i Amnone amy Tamare: Endeso an-traño atoy i haneñey hihinanako an-taña’o. Aa le rinambe’ i Tamare o bokomofo nanoe’eo vaho nendese’e mb’ an-traño ao hazotso’e amy Amnone rahalahi’ey.
And Amnon said to Tamar, Bring the food into the chamber, that I may eat from thy hand. And Tamar took the cakes which she had made, and brought them into the chamber to Amnon her brother.
11 Aa ie nañarine aze hanjotsoa’e, hikama, le nivihine’e vaho nanoe’e ty hoe, Antao rahavaveko, miharoa tihy amako.
And when she had brought them to him to eat, he took hold of her, and said to her, Come lie with me, my sister.
12 Le hoe ty natoi’e aze: Aiy! ry rahalahiko, ko azì’o; fa tsy fanoeñe e Israele ao o raha zao; ko anoe’o o haloloañe zao.
And she answered him, Nay, my brother, do not force me; for no such thing ought to be done in Israel: do not thou this folly.
13 Le izaho, aia ty hivaveako ty hasalarako? ihe ka ty ho mpiamo halò-tsere’ Israeleo. Aa le, miambane ama’o, misaontsia amy mpanjakay fa tsy ho tana’e ama’o iraho.
And I, where shall I cause my shame to go? and as for thee, thou shalt be as one of the fools in Israel. Now therefore, I pray thee, speak to the king; for he will not withhold me from thee.
14 Fe tsy hinao’e ty fiarañanaña’e; aa kanao naozatse te ama’e, nazì’e hiolotse.
However he would not hearken to her voice: but, being stronger than she, forced her, and lay with her.
15 Nalaiñe aze amy zao t’i Amnone am-palaim-binta-mena; toe nandikoatse i nikokoa’e azey ty falai’e henane zao. Le hoe t’i Amnone ama’e, Mitroara, akia.
Then Amnon hated her exceedingly; 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, Arise, be gone.
16 Le hoe re tama’e: Aiy avao, fa lombolombo’ i raty nanoe’o amakoy o fampisintaha’o ahy ama’oo, fe tsy hinao’e.
And she said to him, There is no cause: this evil in sending me away is greater than the other that thou didst to me. But he would not hearken to her.
17 Le kinoi’e i mpitoro’e mpiatrak’ azey, Apitsoho amako ty ampela toy vaho sikadaño o lalañeo t’ie miakatse
Then he called his servant that ministered to him, and said, Put now this woman out from me, and bolt the door after her.
18 (Ie amy zao nisikiñe lamba maro-volo, toe sikiñe lava mireparepa nisikina’ o somondrara ana’ i mpanjakaio). Aa le nakare’ i mpitoro’ey vaho sinikada’e i lalañey t’ie niakatse,
And she had a garment of many colours upon her: for with such robes were the king’s daughters that were virgins apparelled. Then his servant brought her out, and bolted the door after her.
19 le nampipoke lavenoke añambone’e t’i Tamare naho rinia’e i siki’e maro-volo nisikina’ey naho nasampe’e añambone’e eo o taña’eo vaho nandeha; nikoaike t’ie nimb’eo.
And Tamar put ashes on her head, and tore her garment of many colours that was on her, and laid her hand on her head, and went on crying.
20 Le hoe t’i Absalome rahalahi’e ama’e, Nindre ama’o hao t’i Amnone rahalahi’oy? aa mitsiña hey ry rahavaveko: ie rahalahi’o, ko tana’o an-tro’o ao o raha zao. Aa le nitambatse añ’ anjomba’ i Absalome rahalahi’e ao re, nihontoke.
And Absalom her brother said to her, Hath Amnon thy brother been with thee? but hold now thy peace, my sister: he is thy brother; regard not this thing. So Tamar remained desolate in her brother Absalom’s house.
21 Aa ie jinanji’ i Davide le niforoforo;
But when king David heard of all these things, he was very angry.
22 vaho tsy nisaontsy ndra soa ndra raty amy Amnone ka t’i Absalome; fa niheje’ i Absalome vintañe t’i Amnone, amy namahora’e i Tamare rahavave’ey.
And Absalom spoke to his brother Amnon neither good nor bad: for Absalom hated Amnon, because he had forced his sister Tamar.
23 Ie taoñe roe añe, naho e Baale-katsore añ’ila’ i Efraime ey o pañitsi-bolon’ añondri’ i Absalome; le hene nambara’ i Absalome o ana-dahi’ i mpanjakaio.
And it came to pass after two full years, that Absalom had sheepshearers in Baalhazor, which is beside Ephraim: and Absalom invited all the king’s sons.
24 Aa le niheo amy mpanjakay mb’eo t’i Absalome nanao ty hoe: Inao te amam-pañitsik’ añondry ty mpitoro’o; aa ehe te hindre lia ami’ty mpitoro’o irehe rekets’ o mpitoro’oo.
And Absalom came to the king, and said, Behold now, thy servant hath sheepshearers; let the king, I beseech thee, and his servants go with thy servant.
25 Fe hoe i mpanjakay amy Absalome: Aiy, anako, ee te tsy hañavelo mb’eo iaby tika hera havesatse ama’o. Aa ndra t’ie nazì’e tsy nimete ho mb’eo, fe nitatae’e.
And the king said to Absalom, Nay, my son, let us not all now go, lest we be burdensome to thee. And he pressed him: yet he would not go, but blessed him.
26 Aa naho tsie, le apoho hindre ama’ay t’i Amnone rahalahiko. Le hoe i mpanjakay tama’e: Ino ty hindreza’e ama’o?
Then said Absalom, If not, I pray thee, let my brother Amnon go with us. And the king said to him, Why should he go with thee?
27 Mbe nazi’ i Absalome, vaho nado’e hindre ama’e iaby t’i Amnone naho o ana-dahi’ i mpanjakaio.
But Absalom pressed him, that he should let Amnon and all the king’s sons go with him.
28 Linili’ i Absalome amy zao o mpitoro’eo, ami’ty hoe: Inao, hey, naho falefale amy divaiy ty arofo’ i Amnone naho manao ty hoe ama’ areo iraho, Lafao t’i Amnone, le vonò, ko hembañe, tsy fa liniliko? Mahasibeha, naho mahimbaña.
Now Absalom had commanded his servants, saying, Mark ye now when Amnon’s heart is merry with wine, and when I say to you, Smite Amnon; then kill him, fear not: have I not commanded you? be courageous, and be valiant.
29 Aa le nanoe’o mpitoro’ i Absalomeo amy Amnone i nandilia’ i Absalomey. Le songa niongake o anam-panjakao, niningitse borìke vaho nitriban-day.
And the servants of Absalom did to Amnon as Absalom had commanded. Then all the king’s sons arose, and every man rode upon his mule, and fled.
30 Ie mbe an-dala mb’eo, le niheo amy Davide ty rehake nanao ty hoe: Fa zinama’ i Absalome iaby o anam-panjakao vaho tsy nengan-konka’e.
And it came to pass, while they were in the way, that the report came to David, saying, Absalom hath slain all the king’s sons, and there is not one of them left.
31 Niongak’ amy zao i mpanjakay, nandriatse o saro’eo, le nibabok’ mb’an-tane; le nijohañe eo iaby o mpitoro’eo aman-tsiky riniatse.
Then the king arose, and tore his garments, and lay on the earth; and all his servants stood by with their clothes torn.
32 Aa hoe ty natoi’ Ionadabe, ana’i Simeà, rahalahi’ i Davide, Ehe tsy hatao’ ty talèko te fonga zinama’ iareo o ajalahy anam-panjakao; fa i Amnone avao ty nihomake; toe namantaña’ i Absalome ‘nio boak’ amy andro namahorañe i Tamare rahavave’ey.
And Jonadab, the son of Shimeah David’s brother, answered and said, Let not my lord suppose that they have slain all the young men the king’s sons; for Amnon only is dead: for by the appointment of Absalom this hath been determined from the day that he forced his sister Tamar.
33 Aa ee tsy ho rambese’ i talèko mpanjaka añ’arofo’e te fonga nikoromake o ana-dahi’ i mpanjakaio; fa i Amnone avao ty nihomake.
Now therefore let not 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 Nienga an-day ka t’i Absalome. Niandra amy zao ty ajalahy mpijilojilo le nahatalake ondaty maro nimb’eo amboho aze niary añ’ ila’ i vohitsey.
But Absalom fled. And the young man that kept the watch lifted up his eyes, and looked, and, behold, there came many people by the way of the hill side behind him.
35 Le hoe t’Ionadabe amy mpanjakay: Hehe te mb’etoa o ana-dahim-panjakao, manahake i vinolam-pitoro’oy, ie henaneo.
And Jonadab said to the king, Behold, the king’s sons come: as thy servant said, so it is.
36 Ie vaho nampigadoñe i saontsi’ey le ingo pok’eo o ana-dahim-panjakao; nampipoña-peo nangololoike, vaho nangoihoy ty rovetse ka i mpanjakay rekets’ o mpitoro’e iabio.
And it came to pass, as soon as he had finished speaking, that, behold, the king’s sons came, and lifted up their voice and wept: and the king also and all his servants wept exceedingly.
37 Fe niherereake mb’e Talmay ana’ i Amihode mpanjaka’ i Gesore añe t’i Absalome; vaho nirovetse i ana’ey lomoñandro lomoñandro t’i Davide.
But Absalom fled, and went to Talmai, the son of Ammihud, king of Geshur. And David mourned for his son every day.
38 Aa le nilay mb’e Gesore t’i Absalome vaho nitambatse añe telo taoñe.
So Absalom fled, and went to Geshur, and was there three years.
39 Nahakoretse ty arofo’ i Davide ty hamaniña’e i Absalome; f’ie nanintsiñe ty amy Amnone kanao nihomake.
And the soul of king David longed to go forth to Absalom: for he was comforted concerning Amnon, seeing he was dead.
