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.
Now when David was a little past the top, look, Ziba the servant of Mippibaal met him with a couple of donkeys saddled, and on them two hundred loaves of bread, a hundred bunches of raisins, a hundred of summer fruits, and a container 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 to Ziba, "Why did you bring these things?" And Ziba replied, "The donkeys are for the king's household to ride on, and the bread and summer fruit for the young men to eat, and the wine is for those who get exhausted in the desert."
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.
Then the king said, "Where is your master's son?" Ziba said to the king, "Look, he is staying in Jerusalem, for he said, 'Today the children of Israel will restore to 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 the king said to Ziba, "Look, all that pertains to Mippibaal is yours." Ziba said, "I humbly bow. May I find favor in the sight of my lord the 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 reached Bahurim, now look, a man of the family of the house of Saul came out, whose name was Shimei the son of Gera. He came out and cursed continuously as he approached.
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 threw stones at David and at all his servants, and all the people and all the soldiers at his right hand and at his left.
7 Le hoe t’i Simý te namatse: Akia, soike! ty ondatin-dio, ty lokoforo tia;
And Shimei said as he cursed, "Get out, get out, you man of blood, and 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 has returned on you all the blood of the house of Saul, in whose place you have reigned, and the LORD has given the kingdom into the hand of your son Absalom. And look, your evil is upon you, because you are a man of bloodshed."
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 Abishai the son of Zeruiah said to the king, "Why should this dead dog curse my lord the king? Please let me go over and take off 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?
The king said, "What have I to do with you, you sons of Zeruiah? Because he curses, and because the LORD has said to him, 'Curse David;' who then shall say, 'Why have you 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.
Then David said to Abishai and to all his servants, "Look, my son who came from my body seeks my life. So also now this Benjamite. Leave him alone and let him curse, for the LORD has told him to.
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 return good to me for his cursing today."
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.
So David and his men went by the way; and Shimei went along on the hillside opposite him, and cursed as he went, threw stones at his flank, and threw dirt.
14 Ie amy zao nifoezapoezake i mpanjakay naho ze hene ondaty nindre ama’e vaho nañafa-kamokorañe eo.
Now the king and all his people arrived weary at the Jordan, and he refreshed himself there.
15 Fa nivotrake e Ierosalaime ao t’i Absalome naho ondaty iabio, o ana’ Israeleo rekets’ i Akitofele.
Now Absalom and all the men of Israel arrived in Jerusalem, and Ahithophel was 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 about when David's friend Hushai the Archite came to Absalom, that Hushai said to Absalom, "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?
So Absalom said to Hushai, "Is this your loyalty to your friend? Why did you not go with your 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.
Then Hushai said to Absalom, "No, but whom the LORD and this people and all the men of Israel have chosen, his will I belong, and with him I will stay.
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.
Again, whom should I serve? Shouldn't I serve in the presence of his son? As I have served in your father's presence, so will I be in your presence."
20 Aa le hoe t’i Absalome amy Ahitofele: Misafiria; ino ty hanoen-tika?
Then Absalom said to Ahithophel, "Give your counsel. What should we 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.
Ahithophel said to Absalom, "Go in to your father's secondary wives, that he has left to care for the palace. Then all Israel will hear that you have made yourself a stench to your father. Then those on your side will be motivated to support you."
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 set up a tent for Absalom on the roof, and Absalom went in to his father's secondary wives in the sight 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.)
Now in those days the counsel that Ahithophel gave was as if one inquired of the word of God. So was all the counsel of Ahithophel both to David and to Absalom.
