2 Samuel 4
1 At nang mabalitaan ni Is-boseth, na anak ni Saul, na si Abner ay patay na sa Hebron, ang kaniyang mga kamay ay nanghina, at ang lahat na taga Israel ay nabagabag.
And Jebosthe the son of Saul heard that Abenner the son of Ner had died in Chebron; and his hands were paralyzed, and all the men of Israel grew faint.
2 At si Is-boseth, na anak ni Saul, ay may dalawang lalake na mga punong kawal sa mga pulutong: ang pangalan ng isa ay Baana, at ang pangalan ng isa ay Rechab, na mga anak ni Rimmon na Beerothita sa mga anak ni Benjamin: (sapagka't ang Beeroth din naman ay ibinilang sa Benjamin:
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 At ang mga Beerothita ay nagsitakas sa Githaim, at nangakipamayan doon hanggang sa araw na ito.)
And the Berothites ran away to Gethaim, and were sojourners there until this day.
4 Si Jonathan nga na anak ni Saul, ay may isang anak na pilay sa kaniyang mga paa. Siya'y may limang taon nang dumating ang balita tungkol kay Saul at kay Jonathan na mula sa Jezreel, at kinalong siya ng kaniyang yaya at tumakas: at nangyari, habang siya'y nagmamadali ng pagtakas, na siya'y nabagsak, at naging pilay. At ang kaniyang pangalan ay Mephiboseth.
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 At ang mga anak ni Rimmon na Beerothita, na si Rechab at si Baana, ay nagsiyaon at nagsiparoon ng may kainitan ang araw sa bahay ni Is-boseth, na doon siya nagpahinga sa katanghalian tapat.
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 At sila'y nagsipasok doon sa gitna ng bahay, na parang sila'y kukuha ng trigo; at kanilang sinaktan siya sa tiyan; at si Rechab at si Baana na kaniyang kapatid ay nangagtanan.
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 Sapagka't nang sila nga'y magsipasok sa bahay habang siya'y nahihiga sa kaniyang higaan sa kaniyang silid, kanilang sinaktan siya, at pinatay siya, at pinugutan siya ng ulo, at dinala ang kaniyang ulo at nagpatuloy ng lakad sa Araba buong gabi.
And Jebosthe was sleeping on his bed in his chamber: and they smite him, and slay him, and take off his head: and they took his head, and went all the night by the western road.
8 At kanilang dinala ang ulo ni Is-boseth kay David sa Hebron, at sinabi nila sa hari, Tingnan mo ang ulo ni Is-boseth na anak ni Saul na iyong kaaway na umuusig ng iyong buhay; at ipinanghiganti ng Panginoon ang aking panginoon na hari sa araw na ito kay Saul, at sa kaniyang binhi.
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 thy enemy, who sought thy life; and the Lord has executed for my lord the king vengeance on his enemies, as [it is] this day: even on Saul thy enemy, and on his seed.
9 At sinagot ni David si Rechab at si Baana na kaniyang kapatid, na mga anak ni Rimmon na Beerothita, at sinabi sa kanila, Buhay ang Panginoon na siyang tumubos ng aking kaluluwa sa buong kahirapan.
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 Nang saysayin sa akin ng isa, na sinasabi, Narito, si Saul ay namatay, na inakala niyang nagdala siya ng mabuting balita, ay aking hinawakan siya, at pinatay ko siya sa Siclag na siyang kagantihang ibinigay ko sa kaniya dahil sa kaniyang balita.
he that reported to me that Saul was dead, even he was as one bringing glad tidings before me: but I seized him and slew him in Sekelac, to whom I ought, [as he thought], to have given a reward for his tidings.
11 Gaano pa kaya kung pinatay ng masasamang lalake ang isang matuwid na tao sa kaniyang sariling bahay, sa kaniyang higaan, hindi ko ba sisiyasatin ngayon ang kaniyang dugo sa inyong kamay, at aalisin kayo sa lupa?
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 At iniutos ni David sa kaniyang mga bataan, at pinatay nila sila, at pinutol ang kanilang mga kamay at ang kanilang mga paa, at mga ibinitin sa tabi ng tangke sa Hebron. Nguni't kanilang kinuha ang ulo ni Is-boseth, at inilibing sa libingan ni Abner sa Hebron.
And David commanded his young men, and they slay 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.
