2 Saamuʼeel 18
1 Daawit namoota isa wajjin turan lakkaaʼee ajajjuuwwan kumaatii fi ajajjuuwwan dhibbaa muudeef.
Therfor Dauid, whanne the puple `was biholdun, ordeynede tribunes and centuriouns on hem.
2 Daawitis harka sadii keessaa harka tokko ajaja Yooʼaab jalatti, harka tokko ajaja Abiishaayi obboleessa Yooʼaab ilma Zeruuyaa jalatti, harka tokko immoo ajaja Itaayii namicha Gitii jalatti hiriirsee bobbaase. Mootichis loltootaan, “Ani mataan koo dhugumaan isin wajjin nan baʼa” jedhe.
And he yaf the thridde part of the puple vndur the hond of Joab; and the thridde part vndur the hond of Abisai, sone of Saruye, brother of Joab; and the thridde part vndur the hond of Ethai, that was of Geth. And the kyng seide to the puple, Also Y schal go out with you.
3 Namoonni garuu akkana jedhaniin; “Ati deemuu hin qabdu; yoo nu baqachuuf dirqamne isaan waaʼee keenya dhimma hin qaban; yoo walakkaan keenyas dhumne isaaniif homaa miti; ati garuu nama akka keenyaa kuma kudhan caalta. Kanaafuu ati yoo magaalaa keessa turtee nu gargaarte wayya.”
And the puple answeride, Thou schalt not go out; for whether we fleen, it schal not perteyne to hem bi greet werk of vs; whether half the part fallith doun of vs, thei schulen not recke ynow, for thou art rekynyd for ten thousynde; therfor it is betere, that thou be to vs in the citee in stronge hold.
4 Mootichis, “Ani waan gaarii isinitti fakkaate kam iyyuu nan godha” jedhee deebise. Kanaafuu mootichi yeroo loltoonni hundi garee dhibbaatii fi garee kumaatiin qajeelanitti karra bira dhaabachaa ture.
`To whiche the kyng seide, Y schal do this, that semeth riytful to you. Therfor the kyng stood bisidis the yate, and the puple yede out bi her cumpenyes, bi hundridis and bi thousyndis.
5 Mootichis Yooʼaab, Abiishaayii fi Itaayiin, “Anaaf jedhaatii Abesaaloom dargaggeessichaaf garaa laafaa” jedhee ajaje. Loltoonni hundinuus ajaja Daawit waaʼee Abesaaloom ajajjootaaf kenne dhagaʼan.
And the king comaundide to Joab, and to Abisai, and Ethai, and seyde, Kepe ye to me the child Absolon. And al the puple herde the kyng comaundinge to alle the princes for Absolon.
6 Loltoonnis Israaʼelin waraanuuf dirree waraanaatti baʼan; lollis bosona Efreem keessatti kaʼe.
Therfor the puple yede out in to the feeld ayens Israel; and the batel was maad in the forest of Effraym.
7 Achittis loltoonni Israaʼel loltoota Daawitiin dhaʼaman; hubaatiin gaafasiis akka malee guddaa ture; namoota kuma digdamatu dhume.
And the puple of Israel was slayn there of the oost of Dauid, and a greet sleyng of twenti thousynde was maad in that dai.
8 Lolli sunis guutummaa baadiyyaatti babalʼate; namoota goraadeen fixe caalaa kan bosonni liqimsee hambisetu baayʼata.
Forsothe the batel was scaterid there on the face of al erthe, and many mo weren of the puple whiche the forest wastide, than thei whiche the swerd deuourid in that dai.
9 Abesaaloom yeroo kanatti akka tasaa namoota Daawititti dhufe. Innis gaangoo isaa yaabbatee deemaa ture; utuma gaangoon isaa dameelee gobbuu qilxuu guddaa tokkoo jala darbaa jirtuu mataan Abesaaloom muka keessatti qabame. Innis qilleensa irratti rarraʼee hafe; gaangoon inni yaabbatee ture sun garuu deemsa ishee ittuma fufte.
Sotheli it bifeld, that Absalon sittinge on a mule, cam ayens the seruauntis of Dauid; and whanne the mule hadde entrid vndur a thicke ook, and greet, the heed of Absolon cleuyde to the ook; and whanne he was hangid bitwixe heuene and erthe, the mule, on which he sat, passide.
10 Namichi tokko yommuu waan kana argetti, “Ani akka Abesaaloom muka qilxuutti rarraʼee jiru ammuma argeera” jedhee Yooʼaabitti hime.
Sotheli `sum man siy this, and telde to Joab, and seide, Y siy Absolon hange on an ook.
11 Yooʼaabis namicha waan kana isatti himeen, “Maal jetta! Ati isa argiteertaa? Maaliif achumatti rukuttee lafaan isa dhaʼuu dhiifte? Silaa ani meetii saqilii kudhanii fi sabbata jagnummaa sin badhaasa turee” jedhe.
And Joab seide to the man that `hadde telde to hym, If thou siyest, whi persidist thou not hym to the erthe, and Y schulde haue youe `to thee ten siclis of siluer, and a girdil?
12 Namichi sun garuu, akkana jedhee deebise; “Utuu saqiliin kuma tokko harka kootti naaf safaramee iyyuu ani ilma mootiitti harka koo ol hin fudhadhu. Mootichi utuu nu dhageenyuu siʼi, Abiishaayii fi Itaayiin, ‘Anaaf jedhaatii Abesaaloom dargaggeessicha eegaa’ jedhee ajajeera.
And he seide to Joab, Thouy thou paiedist in myn hondis a thousynde platis of siluer, Y nolde sende myn hond in to the sone of the king; for the while we herden, the kyng comaundide to thee, and to Abisai, and to Ethai, and seide, Kepe ye to me the child Absolon.
13 Karaa biraa immoo utuu ani kutadhee lubbuu isaa balleessee, sababii wanti mooticha duraa dhokatu tokko iyyuu hin jirreef ati mataan kee iyyuu natti hin dhiʼaattu ture.”
But and if Y hadde do ayens my lijf hardili, this myyte not be hid fro the kyng, and thou woldist stonde on the contrarye side.
14 Yooʼaabis, “Kana booddee ani haala kanaan si wajjin yeroo balleessuu hin qabu” jedhe. Kanaafuu ankaasee sadii harkatti qabatee utuma Abesaaloom muka qilxuutti rarraʼee lubbuun jiruu garaa isaatti dire.
And Joab seide, Not as thou wolt, `Absolon schal be kept, but Y schal asaile hym bifor thee. Therfore Joab took thre speris in his hond, and fitchide tho in the herte of Absolon. And whanne he spraulide, yit cleuynge in the ook,
15 Warri Yooʼaabiif miʼa lolaa baatan kurnanis itti naannaʼanii Abesaaloomin dhaʼanii ajjeesan.
ten yonge squieris of Joab runnen, and smytiden, and killiden hym.
16 Kana irratti Yooʼaab malakata afuufe; loltoonnis sababii inni isaan dhowweef Israaʼelin ariʼuu ni dhiisan.
Sotheli Joab sownede with a clarioun, and withhelde the puple, lest it pursuede Israel fleynge, and he wolde spare the multitude.
17 Isaanis reeffa Abesaaloom fuudhanii bosona keessatti boolla guddaa tokkotti darbatanii dhagaa gurguddaa isa irra tuulan. Yeroo kanatti Israaʼeloonni hundi gara mana isaaniitti baqatan.
And thei token Absolon, and castiden forth him in to a greet dich in the forest, and baren togidere a ful greet heep of stoonys on hym; forsothe al Israel fledde in to his tabernaclis.
18 Abesaaloom yeroo lubbuun turetti, “Ani ilma maqaa koo waamsisu hin qabu” jedhee iddoo Sulula Mootii jedhamutti yaadannoo ofiitiif soodduu dhaabbate. Soodduu sanas maqaa ofii isaatiin moggaase. Hamma harʼaatti illee soodduun sun Soodduu Abesaaloom jedhamee waamama.
Forsothe Absolon, while he lyuyde yit, hadde reisid to hym a memorial, which is in the valey of the kyng; for he seide, Y haue no sone, and this schal be the mynde of my name; and he clepide `the memorial bi his name, and it is clepid the Hond, `that is, werk, of Absolon `til to this dai.
19 Ahiimaʼaz ilmi Zaadoq, “Ani dhaqee akka Waaqayyo harka diinota isaa jalaa isa baase mootichatti nan hima” jedhe.
Forsothe Achymaas, sone of Sadoch, seide, Y schal renne, and Y schal telle to the kyng, that the Lord hath maad doom to hym of the hond of hise enemyes.
20 Yooʼaab immoo, “Namni harʼa dhaqee himu siʼii miti; sababii ilmi mootichaa duʼeef ati yeroo biraa dhaqxee itti himta; garuu harʼa waan kana gochuu hin qabdu” jedheen.
To whom Joab seide, Thou schalt not be messanger in this dai, but thou schalt telle in another dai; I nyle that thou telle to dai, for the sone of the kyng is deed.
21 Ergasiis Yooʼaab Kuushiidhaan, “Dhaqiitii waan argite mootichatti himi” jedhe. Kuushiinis fuula Yooʼaab duratti gad jedhee harka fuudhee fiigaa qajeele.
And Joab seide to Chusi, Go thou, and telle to the kyng tho thingis that thou hast seyn. Chusi worschypide Joab, and ran.
22 Ahiimaʼaz ilmi Zaadoq ammas Yooʼaabiin, “Wanni fedhe haa dhufu; maaloo anis Kuushii faana nan fiiga” jedhe. Yooʼaab garuu, “Yaa ilma ko, ati maaliif dhaquu barbaadda? Ati oduu badhaasa siif kennisiisu tokko iyyuu hin qabdu” jedheen.
Eft Achymaas, sone of Sadoch, seide to Joab, What lettith, if also Y renne aftir Chusi? And Joab seide to hym, What wolt thou renne, my sone? Come thou hidur, thou schalt not be a berere of good message.
23 Inni immoo, “Wanni fedhe haa dhufu; ani fiiguu nan barbaada” jedhe. Kanaafuu Yooʼaab, “Fiigi!” jedheen. Ergasii Ahiimaʼaz karaa dirreetiin fiigee Kuushii bira darbe.
Which answeride, `What sotheli if Y schal renne? And Joab seide to hym, Renn thou. Therfor Achymaas ran bi the weie of schortnesse, `and sped, and passide Chusi.
24 Adoo Daawit karra alaatii fi kan keessaa gidduu taaʼee jiruu eegduun karaa dhaaba gubbaa manaatiin karaatti ol baʼe. Innis achi ilaalee nama kophaa isaa fiigu tokko arge.
Forsothe Dauid sat bitwixe twei yatis; sotheli the spiere, that was in the hiynesse of the yate on the wal, reiside the iyen, and siy a man aloone rennynge;
25 Eegduun sunis mooticha waamee waan kana itti hime. Mootichis, “Inni yoo kophaa isaa taʼe, oduu gaarii fiduu qaba” jedhe. Namichi sunis dhiʼaachaa dhufe.
and the spiere criede, and schewide to the kyng. And the kyng seide to hym, If he is aloone, good message is in his mouth.
26 Ergasiis eegduun sun utuu namni biraa fiiguu argee eegduu karraa waamee, “Kunoo namni biraa tokko kophaa isaa fiigaa jira!” jedheen. Mootichis, “Innis oduu gaarii fiduu qaba” jedhe.
Sotheli while he hastide, and neiyede neer, the spiere siy another man rennynge; and the spiere criede `in the hiynesse, and seide, Another man rennynge aloone apperith to me. And the kyng seide to hym, And this man is a good messanger.
27 Eegduun sunis, “Inni jalqabaa waan akka Ahiimaʼaz ilma Zaadoqitti fiigu natti fakkaata” jedhe. Mootichi immoo, “Inni nama gaarii dha; oduu gaarii fidee dhufa” jedhe.
Sotheli the spiere seide, Y biholde the rennyng of the formere, as the rennyng of Achymaas, sone of Sadoch. And the kyng seide, He is a good man, and he cometh bryngynge a good message.
28 Ahiimaʼaz mooticha waamee, “Wanni hundinuu gaarii dha” jedhe; fuula mootichaa durattis addaan lafatti gombifamee, “Waaqayyo Waaqni kee galata haa argatu; inni warra gooftaa koo mootichatti harka isaanii ol fudhatan dabarsee kenneeraatii” jedhe.
Forsothe Achymaas criede, and seide to the kyng, Heil kyng! And he worschipide the kyng lowli bifor hym to erthe, and seide, Blessid be thi Lord God, that closide togidere the men, that reisyden her hondis ayens my lord the kyng.
29 Mootichi immoo, “Abesaaloom dargaggeessichi jalaa baʼeeraa?” jedhee gaafate. Ahiimaʼazis, “Yeroo Yooʼaab garbicha mootichaatii fi ana garbicha kee erguuf kaʼetti raafama guddaatu ture. Garuu wanni sun maal akka taʼe ani hin beeku” jedhee deebise.
And the kyng seide, Whether pees is to the child Absolon? And Achymaas seide, Y siy, `that is, Y herde, a great noise, whanne Joab, thi seruaunt, thou kyng, sente me thi seruaunt; Y kan noon othir thing.
30 Mootichis, “As hiiqii dhaabadhu” jedhe. Kanaafuu inni achi hiiqee dhaabate.
To whom the kyng seide, Passe thou, and stonde here. And whanne he hadde passid, and stood, Chusi apperide;
31 Ergasiis Kuushiin dhufee, “Gooftaa koo yaa mootii, oduu gammachiisaa dhagaʼi! Waaqayyo harʼa warra sitti kaʼan hunda jalaa si baaseera” jedhe.
and he cam and seide, My lord the kyng, Y brynge good message; for the Lord hath demed to dai for thee of the hond of alle men that risiden ayens thee.
32 Mootichis Kuushiidhaan, “Abesaaloom dargaggeessichi jalaa baʼeeraa?” jedhee gaafate. Kuushiinis, “Diinonni gooftaa koo mootichaatii fi warri si miidhuuf sitti kaʼan hundi akkuma dargaggeessa sanaa haa taʼan” jedhee deebise.
Forsothe the kyng seide to Chusi, Whether pees is to the child Absolon? To whom Chusi answeride, and seide, The enemyes of my lord the kyng, and alle men that risiden ayens hym in to yuel, be maad as the child.
33 Mootichi ni hollate. Kutaa manaa kan karra duraa gubbaattis ol baʼee booʼe. Yommuu ol baʼuttis, “Yaa ilma koo Abesaaloom! Ilma ko, ilma koo Abesaaloom! Utuu qooda kee ani duʼee jiraadhee; yaa Abesaaloom ilma ko, yaa ilma ko!” jedhe.
Therfor the kyng was sory, and stiede in to the soler of the yate, and wepte, and spak thus goynge, My sone, Absolon! Absolon, my sone! who yyueth to me, that Y die for thee? Absolon, my sone! my sone, Absolon!
