2 Samoela 16
1 Ie vaho nilosore’ i Davide ty lengo’ i vohitsey, te nifanalaka ama’e ty Tsibà mpitoro’ i Mefibosete reketse borìke roe nidiañe; am’ iereo ty boko-mofo roan-jato naho firotorotom-baloboke maike zato naho fitsindrohañ’ asara zato vaho ty zonjòn-divay.
And when David was passed a little beyond the top [of the mount], behold, Ziba the servant of Mephibosheth came toward him, with a couple of asses saddled, and upon them two hundred loaves of bread, and a hundred bunches of raisins, and a hundred [cakes] of dried figs, and a bottle of wine.
2 Le hoe i mpanjakay amy Tsibà: Hatao’o akore o raha zao? Le hoe t’i Tsibà: Ho amo añ’ anjomba’ i mpanjakaio, hiningira’e o borìkeo, vaho ho fitendre’ o ajalahio o mofoo naho i fitsindrohañ’ asaray; le ho finoma’ ty midazidazìtse am-patrambey añe i divaiy.
And the king said unto Ziba, What meanest thou with these? And Ziba said, The asses are for the king's household to ride on; and the bread and the dried figs for the young men to eat; and the wine to drink for such as may be faint in the wilderness.
3 Le hoe i mpanjakay: Aa vaho aia i anan-talè’oy? Le hoe t’i Tsibà amy mpanjakay: Inao, mitoetse e Ierosalaime ao re, ami’ty asa’e ty hoe: Hampolie’ i anjomba’ Israeley amako te anito ty fifehean-draeko.
And the king said, And where is thy master's son? And Ziba said unto the king, Behold, he remaineth at Jerusalem; for he said, Today will the house of Israel restore unto me the kingdom of my father.
4 Le hoe i mpanjakay amy Tsibà: Ingo, azo iaby ze a i Mefibosete. Le hoe t’i Tsibà: Miambane ama’o, ehe t’ie hahatrea fañisohañe ama’o ry talèko mpanjaka.
Then said the king to Ziba, Behold, thine shall be all that pertaineth unto Mephibosheth. And Ziba said, I prostrate myself; let me but find grace in thy eyes, my Lord, O king.
5 Aa ie nitotsake e Bahorime t’i Davide mpanjaka, ingo te boak’ ao t’indati’ i hasavereña’ i anjomba’ i Saoley, i Simý, ty tahina’e, ana’ i Gerà, nionjom-beo nitolom-pamatse.
And when King David came as far as Bachurim, behold, there came out thence a man of the family of the house of Saul, whose name was Shim'i, the son of Gera, coming forth, and cursing.
6 Tinora’e vato ka t’i Davide naho o mpitoro’ i Davide mpanjaka iabio naho ze hene’ ondaty vaho o fanalolahy ankavana’e naho ankavia’eo.
And he cast stones at David, and at all the servants of king David: and all the people and all the mighty men were on his right and on his left.
7 Le hoe t’i Simý te namatse: Akia, soike! ty ondatin-dio, ty lokoforo tia;
And thus said Shim'i as he cursed, Away, away, thou man of blood, and thou worthless man!
8 fa nabali’ Iehovà ama’o iaby ty lio’ i anjomba’ i Saoley, i nisoloa’o fifeheañey; naho natolo’ Iehovà amy Absalome ana’o i fifelehañey; vaho hehe t’ie tsinepake am-pikinià’o, amy te ondatin-dio.
The Lord hath brought back upon thee all the blood of the house of Saul, in whose stead thou didst reign; and the Lord hath placed the kingdom into the hand of Abshalom thy son; and, behold, thou art now in thy misfortune, because a man of blood art thou.
9 Aa le hoe t’i Abisaý ana’ i Tseroià amy mpanjakay: Aa vaho akore te amara’ ty amboa-mate tia i talèko mpanjakay? Angao iraho hitotok’ aze hañitsike ty loha’e.
Then said Abishai the son of Zeruyah unto the king, Why should this dead dog curse my Lord the king? let me go over, I pray thee, and remove his head.
10 Le hoe i mpanjakay: Hataoko akore nahareo ana’ i Tseroiào? Apoho hamàtse, hera Iehovà ty nanao ama’e ty hoe: Ozoño t’i Davide; ia amy zay ty hanao ama’e ty hoe: Akore ty atao’o zao?
And the king said, What have I to do with you, ye sons of Zeruyah? so let him curse; because the Lord hath said unto him, Curse David. Who shall then say, Wherefore hast thou done so?
11 Le hoe t’i Davide amy Abisaý naho amo mpitoro’e iabio: Inao! mipay ty fiaiko i ana-dahiko niboak’ an-tsandrikoy, mentsake o nte-Beniamineo henanekeo? Apoho re hamatse ke nedrè’ Iehovà.
And David said to Abishai, and to all his servants, Behold, my son, who hath come forth out of my own body, seeketh my life: how much more now this Benjamite? let him alone, and let him curse; for the Lord hath said it to him.
12 Hera ho vazoho’ Iehovà ty hasotriako, vaho havaha’ Iehovà soa o famara’e ahy androanio.
Perhaps the Lord will look on my affliction, and the Lord will requite me good instead of his cursing this day.
13 Aa le tinonjohi’ i Davide naho ondati’eo i liay, ie nifamalahañe ama’e añ’ ila’ i haboañey t’i Simeý namatse am-pandenà’e, naho nitora-bato aze vaho nampibobò deboke.
And David and his men went [thus] on the way. And Shim'i went on the side of the mount opposite to him, and cursed as he went, and threw stones toward him, and cast dust.
14 Ie amy zao nifoezapoezake i mpanjakay naho ze hene ondaty nindre ama’e vaho nañafa-kamokorañe eo.
And the king, and all the people that were with him, arrived weary, and refreshed themselves there.
15 Fa nivotrake e Ierosalaime ao t’i Absalome naho ondaty iabio, o ana’ Israeleo rekets’ i Akitofele.
And Abshalom, and all the people the men of Israel, came to Jerusalem, and Achithophel [also] with him.
16 Aa le niheo mb’amy Absalome mb’eo t’i Khosaý nte-Arkite rañe’ i Davide; naho nanao ty hoe amy Absalome t’i Khosaý: Lava havelo ry mpanjaka, lava havelo o mpanjakao.
And it came to pass, when Chushai the Arkite, David's friend, was come unto Abshalom, that Chushai said unto Abshalom, Long live the king! Long live the king!
17 Le hoe t’i Absalome amy Khosaý, Zao hao ty fiferenaiña’o an-drañe’o? Akore t’ie tsy niharo lia aman-drañe’o?
And Abshalom said to Chushai, Is this thy kindness for thy friend? why art thou not gone with thy friend?
18 Le hoe t’i Khosaý amy Absalome: Aiy, fe amy jinobo’ Iehovày naho am’ondati’eo naho amo ana’ Israele iabio ty hitoerako.
And Chushai said unto Abshalom, No; but whom the Lord, and this people, and all the men of Israel have chosen, his will I be, and with him will I remain.
19 Tovoñako ty hoe: Ia ty ho toroñeko? Tsy hitoroñe añatrefa’ i ana’ey hao iraho? Manahake ty nitoroñeko añatrefan-drae’o ty hanoeko añatrefa’o.
And secondly, who is it whom I shall serve? is it not in the presence of his son? as I have served in thy father's presence, so will I be in thy presence.
20 Aa le hoe t’i Absalome amy Ahitofele: Misafiria; ino ty hanoen-tika?
Then said Abshalom to Achithophel, Hold counsel among yourselves as to what we shall do.
21 Le hoe t’i Ahitofele amy Absalome: Akia, miolora aman-tsakezan-drae’o; o nenga’e hañambeñe i anjombaio le ho janjiñe’ Israele iaby t’ie vata’e malain-drae’o; ie amy zay, hene haozatse ty fità’ o mpiama’oo.
And Achithophel said unto Abshalom, Go in unto thy father's concubines, whom he hath left to guard the house; and all Israel will hear that thou art in bad odor with thy father: and then will the hands of all that are with thee become strong.
22 Aa le nandafiha’ iereo kibohotse ambone’ i anjombay t’i Absalome; le nimoak’ amo sakezan-drae’eo t’i Absalome añatrefa’ Israele iaby
So they spread for Abshalom a tent upon the roof; and Abshalom went in unto his father's concubines before the eyes of all Israel.
23 (Fa nanahake te nañontaneañe amy tsaran’ Añaharey, ty toro-heve’ i Ahitofele tañ’andro rezay; izay iaby ty fanoroan-keve’ i Ahitofele tamy Davide naho i Absalome.)
And the counsel of Achithophel, which he counseled in those days, was as if a man had asked advice of the word of God: so was all the counsel of Achithophel both with David and with Abshalom.
