2 Hamuera 13

1 Muri iho i enei mea, na he tuahine to Apoharama tama a Rawiri, ko Tamara te ingoa, he attahua; a i arohaina ia e Amoanono tama a Rawiri.

And it cometh to pass afterwards that Absalom son of David hath a fair sister, and her name [is] Tamar, and Amnon son of David loveth her.

2 Na ngaua kinotia ana a Amanono, no ka mate ia mo tona tuahine, mo Tamara, he wahine hoki ia, a ki te whakaaro o Amanono he he rawa ki te meatia tetahi mea ki a ia.

And Amnon hath distress — even to become sick, because of Tamar his sister, for she [is] a virgin, and it is hard in the eyes of Amnon to do anything to her.

3 He hoa ia to Amanono, tona ingoa ko Ionarapa, he tama na Himea, na tetahi o nga tuakana o Rawiri; he tangata murere rawa ano a Ionarapa.

And Amnon hath a friend, and his name [is] Jonadab, son of Shimeah, David's brother, and Jonadab [is] a very wise man,

4 Na ka mea ia ki a ia, He aha koe, e te tama a te kingi, i penei ai te kikokore i tenei ata, i tenei ata? e kore ianei koe e whakaatu ki ahau? Ano ra ko Amanono ki a ia, E aroha ana ahau ki a Tamara, ki te tuahine o Apoharama, o toku teina.

and saith to him, 'Wherefore [art] thou thus lean, O king's son, morning by morning? dost thou not declare to me?' And Amnon saith to him, 'Tamar — sister of Absalom my brother — I am loving.'

5 Na ka mea a Ionarapa ki a ia, Takoto i runga i tou moenga, ka whakamatemate hoki i a koe, a ka tae mai tou papa kia kite i a koe, na ka mea ki a ia, Kia haere mai toku tuahine, a Tamara ki te whangai i ahau ki te kai, ki te taka hoki i te kai i t aku tirohanga, kia kite atu ai ahau, kia kai ai i ta tona ringa.

And Jonadab saith to him, 'Lie down on thy couch, and feign thyself sick, and thy father hath come in to see thee, and thou hast said unto him, 'Let, I pray thee, Tamar my sister come in and give me bread to eat; and she hath made the food before mine eyes so that I see [it], and have eaten from her hand.'

6 Heoi ka takoto a Amanono, ka whakamatemate; a, i te taenga mai o te kingi kia kite i a ia, ka mea a Amanono ki te kingi, Tena kia haere mai a Tamara, toku tuahine ki te hanga i etahi keke i taku tirohanga, kia rua, a ka kai ahau i ta tona ringa.

And Amnon lieth down, and feigneth himself sick, and the king cometh in to see him, and Amnon saith unto the king, 'Let, I pray thee, Tamar my sister come, and she maketh before mine eyes two cakes, and I eat from her hand.'

7 Katahi ka tono tangata a Rawiri ki te whare ki a Tamara, ka mea, Tena, haere ki te whare o tou tungane, o Amanono, ki te taka kai mana.

And David sendeth unto Tamar, to the house, saying, 'Go, I pray thee, to the house of Amnon thy brother, and make for him food.'

8 Heoi haere ana a Tamara ki te whare o tona tungane, o Amanono, a i te takoto tera: na ka mau ia ki te paraoa, a pokepokea ana, hanga ana hei keke i tana tirohanga, na tunua ana e ia nga keke.

And Tamar goeth to the house of Amnon her brother, and he is lying down, and she taketh the dough, and kneadeth, and maketh cakes before his eyes, and cooketh the cakes,

9 Na kua mau ia ki te parai, ringihia ana e ia ki tona aroaro: heoi ka whakaparahako tera ki te kai. Na ka mea a Amanono, Kia mawehe katoa atu nga tangata i ahau. Na ka mawehe katoa nga tangata i a ia.

and taketh the frying-pan, and poureth out before him, and he refuseth to eat, and Amnon saith, 'Take ye out every one from me;' and they go out every one from him.

10 Na ka mea a Amanono ki a Tamara, Maua ake te kai na ki te whare moenga, a ma tou ringa ahau e whangai. Na ka mau a Tamara ki nga keke i hanga e ia, a kawea ana ki a Amanono, ki tona tungane, ki te whare moenga.

And Amnon saith unto Tamar, 'Bring the food into the inner chamber, and I eat from thy hand;' and Tamar taketh the cakes that she hath made, and bringeth in to Amnon her brother, into the inner chamber,

11 A, i tana kawenga ki a ia kia kainga, na ka hopu tera i a ia, ka mea, Haere mai, taua ka takoto tahi, e toku tuahine.

and she bringeth nigh unto him to eat, and he layeth hold on her, and saith to her, 'Come, lie with me, my sister.'

12 Na ka mea ia ki a ia, Kauaka, e toku tungane, kaua ahau e whakaititia, kahore hoki he mahi penei i roto i a Iharaira; kati ra tenei mahi wairangi.

And she saith to him, 'Nay, my brother, do not humble me, for it is not done so in Israel; do not this folly.

13 Ko ahau hoki, kei hea he hunanga mo toku whakama? a ka rite koe ki tetahi o te hunga wairangi o Iharaira. Engari ra korero ki te kingi; e kore hoki ahau e kaiponuhia e ia ki a koe.

And I — whither do I cause my reproach to go? and thou — thou art as one of the fools in Israel; and now, speak, I pray thee, unto the king; for he doth not withhold me from thee.'

14 Heoi kihai ia i pai ki te whakarongo ki tona reo: na he kaha rawa ia i a ia, a whakaititia ana ia e ia, a takotoria ana e ia.

And he hath not been willing to hearken to her voice, and is stronger than she, and humbleth her, and lieth with her.

15 Katahi ka nui atu te kino i kino ai a Amanono ki a ia; nui atu te kino i kino ai ia ki a ia i te aroha i aroha ai ia ki a ia. A ka mea a Amanono ki a ia, Whakatika, haere.

And Amnon hateth her — a very great hatred — that greater [is] the hatred with which he hath hated her than the love with which he loved her, and Amnon saith to her, 'Rise, go.'

16 Na ka mea tera ki a ia, Kahore he rawa; nui atu te kino o tenei tononga i ahau i tera i meatia e koe ki ahau. Otiia kihai ia i pai ki te whakarongo ki a ia.

And she saith to him, 'Because of the circumstances this evil is greater than the other that thou hast done with me — to send me away;' and he hath not been willing to hearken to her,

17 Katahi ka karangatia e ia tana tangata i mahi nei ki a ia, a ka mea, Tonoa atu tenei wahine i toku aroaro ki waho, whakarawatia hoki te tatau i muri i a ia.

and calleth his young man, his servant, and saith, 'Send away, I pray thee, this one from me without, and bolt the door after her;'

18 Na he kakahu purepure to te wahine, he pera hoki nga koroka i kakahuria ai nga tamahine wahine a te kingi. Katahi ka kawea ia e tana tangata ki waho, a whakarawatia ana te tatau i muri i a ia.

— and upon her [is] a long coat, for such upper robes do daughters of the king who [are] virgins put on, — and his servant taketh her out without, and hath bolted the door after her.

19 Na ka opehia e Tamara he pungarehu ki runga ki tona matenga, a haea ana e ia tona kakahu purepure, taupokina iho ona ringa ki runga ki tona matenga, a haere ana, me te aue haere.

And Tamar taketh ashes for her head, and the long coat that [is] on her she hath rent, and putteth her hand on her head, and goeth, going on and crying;

20 Na ka mea a Apoharama tona tungane ki a ia, I a koe tou tungane a Amanono? tena, noho puku, e toku tuahine; ko tou tungane hoki ia, kaua tou ngakau e mea ki tenei mea. Na noho ana a Tamara, whakapouaru ana i te whare o tona tungane, o Apoharama.

and Absalom her brother saith unto her, 'Hath Amnon thy brother been with thee? and now, my sister, keep silent, he [is] thy brother; set not thy heart to this thing;' and Tamar dwelleth — but desolate — in the house of Absalom her brother.

21 I te rongonga ia o Kingi Rawiri i enei mea katoa, nui rawa tona riri.

And king David hath heard all these things, and it is very displeasing to him;

22 Na kahore a Apoharama kupu ki a Amanono, ahakoa pai, ahakoa kino: e mauahara ana hoki a Apoharama ki a Amanono, mona i whakaiti i tona tuahine i a Tamara.

and Absalom hath not spoken with Amnon either evil or good, for Absalom is hating Amnon, because that he humbled Tamar his sister.

23 A, e rua rawa tau i muri, na he kaikutikuti hipi a Apoharama i Paara Hatoro, i te taha o Eparaima, a karangatia ana e Apoharama nga tama katoa a te kingi.

And it cometh to pass, after two years of days, that Absalom hath shearers in Baal-Hazor, which [is] with Ephraim, and Absalom calleth for all the sons of the king.

24 Na ka haere a Apoharama ki te kingi, a ka mea, Nana, he kaikutikuti enei a tau pononga, na kia haere te kingi ratou ko ana pononga hei hoa mo tau pononga.

And Absalom cometh unto the king, and saith, 'Lo, I pray thee, thy servant hath shearers, let the king go, I pray thee, and his servants, with thy servant.'

25 Na ka mea te kingi ki a Apoharama, Kauaka, e taku tama, kaua matou katoa e haere, kei taimaha koe i a matou. Na tohe ana ia ki a ia: otiia kihai tera i pai ki te haere; engari i manaaki i a ia.

And the king saith unto Absalom, 'Nay, my son, let us not all go, I pray thee, and we are not too heavy on thee;' and he presseth on him, and he hath not been willing to go, and he blesseth him.

26 Katahi ka mea a Apoharama, Ki te kore, tukua toku tuakana a Amanono, kia haere tahi matou. Na ka mea te kingi, Kia haere ia i a koe hei aha?

And Absalom saith, 'If not — let, I pray thee, Amnon my brother go with us;' and the king saith to him, 'Why doth he go with thee?'

27 Ka tohe ia a Apoharama ki a ia, a ka tukua e ia a Amanono ratou ko nga tama katoa a te kingi hei hoa mona.

and Absalom urgeth on him, and he sendeth with him Amnon, and all the sons of the king.

28 Na i whakahau a Apoharama i ana tangata, i mea, E kite koutou i te ngakau o Amanono e koa ana i te waina, a ka mea ahau ki a koutou, Patua a Amanono, na me whakamate, kaua e wehi; he teka ianei naku koutou i whakahau? kia maia, kia toa.

And Absalom commandeth his young men, saying, 'See, I pray thee, when the heart of Amnon [is] glad with wine, and I have said unto you, Smite Amnon, that ye have put him to death; fear not; is it not because I have commanded you? be strong, yea, become sons of valour.'

29 A rite tonu ta nga tangata a Apoharama i mea ai ki a Amanono ki ta Apoharama i whakahau ai. Katahi ka whakatika katoa nga tama a te kingi, a eke ana ki tona muera, ki tona muera, a rere ana.

And the young men of Absalom do to Amnon as Absalom commanded, and rise do all the sons of the king, and they ride, each on his mule, and flee.

30 I a ratou ano i te ara, ka tae te rongo ki a Rawiri, ka korerotia, Kua patua e Apoharama nga tama katoa a te kingi, kihai hoki tetahi o ratou i mahue.

And it cometh to pass — they [are] in the way — and the report hath come unto David, saying, 'Absalom hath smitten all the sons of the king, and there is not left of them one;'

31 Katahi ka whakatika te kingi, a haea ana e ia ona kakahu, takoto ana ki te whenua; me te tu ano ana tangata katoa, he mea haehae nga kakahu.

and the king riseth, and rendeth his garments, and lieth on the earth, and all his servants are standing by [with] rent garments.

32 Na ka oho a Ionarapa tama a Himea, a te tuakana o Rawiri, ka ki, Kei mea toku ariki, ko nga taitama katoa, ko nga tama a te kingi kua whakamatea nei; engari ko Amanono anake i mate: ko ta Apoharama hoki tenei i karanga ai, he mea whakatakoto no te ra ano i whakaiti ai tera i tona tuahine, i a Tamara.

And Jonadab son of Shimeah, David's brother, answereth and saith, 'Let not my lord say, The whole of the young men, the sons of the king, they have put to death; for Amnon alone [is] dead, for by the command of Absalom it hath been appointed from the day of his humbling Tamar his sister;

33 Na, tena, kaua te ngakau o toku ariki, o te kingi e mea ki taua mea, e whakaaro, Ko nga tama katoa a te kingi kua mate: kahore, ko Amanono anake i mate.

and now, let not my lord the king lay unto his heart the word, saying, All the sons of the king have died, for Amnon alone [is] dead.'

34 Rere ana ia a Apoharama. Na, ko te marangatanga o nga kanohi o te tamaiti e tutei atu ana, ka titiro, na he nui te hunga e haere mai ana i te ara i te taha o te puke i tona tuara.

And Absalom fleeth, and the young man who is watching lifteth up his eyes and looketh, and lo, much people are coming by the way behind him, on the side of the hill.

35 Na ka mea a Ionarapa ki te kingi, Nana, ko nga tama a te kingi te haere mai nei; e rite ana ki ta tau pononga i mea ai.

And Jonadab saith unto the king, 'Lo, the sons of the king have come; as the word of thy servant, so it hath been.'

36 Mutu kau tana korero, na ko te haerenga mai o nga tama a te kingi, a nui atu to ratou reo ki te tangi: a nui atu te tangi i tangi ai te kingi ratou ko ana tangata katoa.

And it cometh to pass at his finishing to speak, that lo, the sons of the king have come, and they lift up their voice, and weep, and also the king and all his servants have wept — a very great weeping.

37 Rere ana ia a Apoharama, a haere ana ki a Taramai tama a Amihuru, kingi o Kehuru. Ko Rawiri ia, tangihia ana e ia tana tama i nga ra katoa.

And Absalom hath fled, and goeth unto Talmai, son of Ammihud, king of Geshur, and [David] mourneth for his son all the days.

38 Heoi rere ana a Apoharama, haere ana ki Kehuru, a e toru ona tau ki reira.

And Absalom hath fled, and goeth to Geshur, and is there three years;

39 Na ka koingo te ngakau o Kingi Rawiri kia haere ki a Apoharama: kua marie hoki ia ki a Amonono, i te mea kua mate ia.

and [the soul of] king David determineth to go out unto Absalom, for he hath been comforted for Amnon, for [he is] dead.
