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.
When David had gone a short distance over the summit of the hill, Ziba the servant of Mephibosheth met him with a couple of saddled donkeys; on them were two hundred loaves of bread, one hundred clusters of raisins, and one hundred bunches of figs, and a skin 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.
The king said to Ziba, “Why did you bring these things?” Ziba replied, “The donkeys are for the king's household to ride on, the bread and fig cakes are for your men to eat, and the wine is for anyone who is faint in the wilderness to drink.”
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.
The king said, “Then where is your master's grandson?” Ziba replied to the king, “Look, he has stayed behind in Jerusalem, for he said, 'Today the house of Israel will restore my father's kingdom to me.'”
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 belonged to Mephibosheth now belongs to you.” Ziba answered, “I bow in humility to you, my master, king. Let me find favor in your eyes.”
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.
When King David approached Bahurim, there came out from there a man from the clan of Saul, whose name was Shimei son of Gera. He came out cursing as he walked.
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.
He threw stones at David and at all of the king's officials, in spite of the army and bodyguards who were on the king's right and left.
7 Le hoe t’i Simý te namatse: Akia, soike! ty ondatin-dio, ty lokoforo tia;
Shimei called out in cursing, “Go away, get out of here, you villain, you man of blood!
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.
Yahweh has repaid all of you for the blood you shed within the family of Saul, in whose place you have reigned. Yahweh has given the kingdom into the hand of Absalom your son. You have come to ruin because you are a man of blood.”
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 son of Zeruiah, said to the king, “Why should this dead dog curse my master 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?
But the king said, “What have I to do with you, sons of Zeruiah? Perhaps he is cursing me because Yahweh has said to him, 'Curse David.' Who then could say to him, 'Why are you cursing the king?'”
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.
So David said to Abishai and to all his servants, “Look, my son, who was born from my body, wants to take my life. How much more may this Benjamite now desire my ruin? Leave him alone and let him curse, for Yahweh has commanded him to do it.
12 Hera ho vazoho’ Iehovà ty hasotriako, vaho havaha’ Iehovà soa o famara’e ahy androanio.
Perhaps Yahweh will look at the misery unleashed on me, and repay me with good for his cursing me 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 traveled on the road, while Shimei went beside him up on the hillside, cursing and throwing dust and stones at him as he went.
14 Ie amy zao nifoezapoezake i mpanjakay naho ze hene ondaty nindre ama’e vaho nañafa-kamokorañe eo.
Then the king and all the people who were with him became weary, and he rested when they stopped for the night.
15 Fa nivotrake e Ierosalaime ao t’i Absalome naho ondaty iabio, o ana’ Israeleo rekets’ i Akitofele.
As for Absalom and all the men of Israel who were with him, they came to 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.
It came about when Hushai the Arkite, David's friend, had come 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?
Absalom said to Hushai, “Is this your loyalty to your friend? Why did you not go with him?”
18 Le hoe t’i Khosaý amy Absalome: Aiy, fe amy jinobo’ Iehovày naho am’ondati’eo naho amo ana’ Israele iabio ty hitoerako.
Hushai said to Absalom, “No! Instead, the one whom Yahweh and this people and all the men of Israel have chosen, that is the man to whom I will belong, and I will stay with him.
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.
Also, what man should I serve? Should I not serve in the presence of his son? As I have served in your father's presence, I will serve in your presence.”
20 Aa le hoe t’i Absalome amy Ahitofele: Misafiria; ino ty hanoen-tika?
Then Absalom said to Ahithophel, “Give us your advice about what we should 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 answered Absalom, “Go sleep with your father's slave wives whom he has left to keep the palace, and all Israel will hear that you have become a stench to your father. Then the hands of all who are with you will be 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 Absalom a tent on the top of the palace, and Absalom slept with his father's slave 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 the advice of Ahithophel that he gave in those days was as if a man heard from the mouth of God himself. That was how all of Ahithophel's advice was viewed by both David and Absalom.
