2 Samoela 4
1 Ie jinanji’ i ana’ i Saole e Kebroney te nivilasy t’i Abnere, le nigebañe ty fità’e vaho ninevenevetse iaby o ana’ Israeleo.
And Jebosthe the son of Saul heard that Abenner the son of Ner had died in Chebron; and his hands were paralysed, and all the men of Israel grew faint.
2 Ondaty roe ty nimpifehem-pirimboñañe amy ana’ i Saoley; ty raike natao Baanà, naho ty tahina’ ty raike: Rekabe, sambe ana’ i Rimone nte Beerote, ana’ i Beniamine; amy te nivolilieñe amy Beniamine t’i Beerote;
And Jebosthe the son of Saul had two men that were captains of bands: the name of the one [was] Baana, and the name of the other Rechab, sons of Remmon the Berothite of the children of Benjamin; for Beroth was reckoned to the children of Benjamin.
3 aa le nibioñe mb’e Gitaime mb’eo o nte-Beeroteo, vaho nañialo ho renetane añe pake henaneo.
And the Berothites ran away to Gethaim, and were sojourners there until this day.
4 Nanañ’ anadahy kepek’ am-pandia t’Ionatane ana’ i Saole, ie lime taoñe te pok’eo i talily i Saole naho Ionatane e Iezreeley le rinambe’ i mpiatrak’ azey naho nandrifitse ty lay; aa ie nitaentaeñe hipitsike le nidorasitse nahakepeke i natao Mefibosètey.
And Jonathan Saul's son [had] a son lame of his feet, five years old, and he was [in the way] when the news of Saul and Jonathan his son came from Jezrael, and his nurse took him up, and fled; and it came to pass as he hasted and retreated, that he fell, and was lamed. And his name [was] Memphibosthe.
5 Niheo mb’eo i ana’ i Rimone nte-Beerote rey, i Rekabe naho i Baanà, le nivotrak’ añ’ anjomba’ Isbosete an-tsingilingilien’ andro, ie nandre am-pandreañe ao.
And Rechab and Baana the sons of Remmon the Berothite went, and they came in the heat of the day into the house of Jebosthe; and he was sleeping on a bed at noon.
6 Nimoak’ am-po i anjombay iereo nanao ho mpampibalike vare-bolè, le tinombo’ iareo ambane’ ty pa’e faha-lime ao; vaho nivoratsake t’i Rekabe naho i Baanà rahalahi’ey.
And, behold, the porter of the house winnowed wheat, and he slumbered and slept: and the brothers Rechab and Baana went privily into the house:
7 Ie nimoak’ añ’ anjomba ao iereo, ie nandre am-pandrea’e an-trañom-pandrea’e ao, le tinombo’ iareo, vinono, naho kinitsi’ iereo ty añambone’e vaho nikatsakatsak’ amy haleñey niranga i montoñey.
And Jebosthe was sleeping on his bed in his chamber: and they strike him, and kill him, and take off his head: and they took his head, and went all the night by the western road.
8 Nendese’ iereo mb’amy Davide e Kebrone mb’eo ty añambone’ Isbosete le nanao ty hoe amy mpanjakay, Ingo ty añambone’ Isbosete ana’ i Saole rafelahi’oy, i nipay ty fiai’oy, fa nondroha’ Iehovà ty kabò’ i talèko mpanjakay amy Saole naho amy tiri’ey anindroany.
And they brought the head of Jebosthe to David to Chebron, and they said to the king, Behold the head of Jebosthe the son of Saul your enemy, who sought your life; and the Lord has executed for my lord the king vengeance on his enemies, as [it is] this day: even on Saul your enemy, and on his seed.
9 Aa hoe ty natoi’ i Davide amy Rakabe naho i Baanà rahalahi’e, ana’ i Rimone nte-Beerote: Kanao veloñe t’Iehovà nijebañe ty fiaiko amy ze atao rafelahy iaby,
And David answered and Rechab and Baana his brother, the sons of Remmon the Berothite, and said to them, [As] the Lord lives, who has redeemed my soul out of all affliction;
10 naho nitalily amako ty nanao ty hoe: Inao, vilasy t’i Saole. Ie natao’e te nanday talily soa. Fe rinambeko vaho zinevoko e Tsiklage ao ho tambe’ i talili’ey.
he that reported to me that Saul was dead, even he was as one bringing glad tidings before me: but I seized him and killed him in Sekelac, to whom I ought, [as he thought], to have given a reward for his tidings.
11 Tsy antsake hao ondaty lo-tsereke namono indaty marentane añ’anjomba’e am-pandrea’ey? Tsy hampañavahako am-pità’ areo hao ty lio’e hanintak’ anahareo an-tane atoy?
And now evil men have slain a righteous men in his house on his bed: now then I will require his blood of your hand, and I will destroy you from off the earth.
12 Aa le linili’ i Davide o gaon-dahi’eo, le vinono’ iereo naho kinitsike o fitañe naho fandia’ iareoo naho naradorado ambone’ i antara’ i Kebroney. Nitakone’ iereo ty añambone’ Isbosete vaho nalenteke an-kibori’ i Abnere e Kebrone ao.
And David commanded his young men, and they kill them, and cut off their hands and their feet; and they hung them up at the fountain in Chebron: and they buried the head of Jebosthe in the tomb of Abenezer the son of Ner.
