< 2 Samuel 18 >
1 Binilang ni David ang mga sundalong kasama niya at nagtalga ng mga kapitan ng libu-libo at mga kapitan ng daan-daan.
And he mustered David the people which [was] with him and he appointed over them commanders of thousands and commanders of hundreds.
2 Pagkatapos ipinadala ni David ang hukbo, isang-katlo sa ilalim ng pamumuno ni Joab, isa pang katlo sa ilalim ng pamumuno ni Abisai anak ni Zeruias, kapatid ni Joab at isa pa ring katlo sa ilalim ng pamumuno ni Itai na taga-Gat. Sinabi ng hari sa hukbo, “Titiyakin kong sasama rin ako sa inyo.”
And he sent out David the people the third [was] in [the] hand of Joab and the third [was] in [the] hand of Abishai [the] son of Zeruiah [the] brother of Joab and the third [was] in [the] hand of Ittai the Gittite. And he said the king to the people certainly I will go out also I with you.
3 Pero sinabi ng kalalakihan, “Hindi ka dapat pumunta sa labanan, dahil kung tatakas kami hindi sila mag-aalala sa amin, o kung mamatay ang kalahati sa amin wala silang pakialam. Pero kasing halaga mo ang sampung libo sa amin!
And it said the people not you must go out for if certainly [if] we will flee not they will set to us heart and if they will die half of us not they will set to us heart for now like us ten thousand and therefore [is] good that you will be us from [the] city (to help. *Q(K)*)
4 Kaya mas mabuting maghanda kang tulungan kami mula sa lungsod.” Kaya sinagot sila ng hari, “Gagawin ko anuman ang pinakamabuti para sa inyo.” Tumayo ang hari sa tarangkahan ng lungsod habang lumabas ang buong hukbo nang daan-daan at libu-libo.
And he said to them the king [that] which it will be good in view your I will do and he stood the king to [the] side of the gate and all the people they went out to hundreds and to thousands.
5 Inutusan ni David sina Joab, Abisai at Itai sa pagsasabing, “Makitungo nang malumanay alang-alang sa akin sa binata, kay Absalom.” Narinig ng lahat ng tao na ibinigay ng hari sa mga kapitan ang utos na ito tungkol kay Absalom.
And he commanded the king Joab and Abishai and Ittai saying to gentleness for me to the young man to Absalom and all the people they heard when commanded the king all the commanders on [the] matter of Absalom.
6 Kaya lumabas ang hukbo sa kabukiran laban sa Israel; umabot ang labanan sa kagubatan ng Efraim.
And it went out the people the field to meet Israel and it was the battle in [the] forest of Ephraim.
7 Natalo roon ang hukbo ng Israel sa harapan ng mga sundalo ni David; may isang matinding patayan doon sa araw na iyon nang dalawampung libong kalalakihan.
And they were defeated there [the] people of Israel before [the] servants of David and it was there the slaughter great on the day that twenty thousand.
8 Umabot ang labanan hanggang sa buong kabukiran at mas maraming kalalakihan ang nilamon ng kagubatan kaysa ng espada.
And it was there the battle (scattered *Q(K)*) over [the] face of all the land and it increased the forest to consume among the people more than [those] whom it consumed the sword on the day that.
9 Nagkataong nakasalubong ni Absalom ang ilan sa mga sundalo ni David. Nakasakay si Absalom sa kaniyang mola at napadaan ang mola sa ilalim ng makakapal na sanga ng isang malaking punong kahoy at sumabit ang kaniyang ulo sa mga sanga ng puno. Naiwan siyang nakabitin sa pagitan ng lupa at ng langit habang nagpatuloy sa pagtakbo ang kaniyang sinasakyang mola.
And he was met Absalom before [the] servants of David and Absalom [was] riding on the mule and it went the mule under [the] branche[s] of the oak great and it was firm head his in the oak and he was put between the heavens and between the earth and the mule which [was] under him it passed on.
10 Nakita ito ng isang tao at sinabihan si Joab, “Tingnan, nakita kong nakabitin si Absalom sa isang punong kahoy!”
And he saw a man one and he told to Joab and he said there! I saw Absalom hung up in the oak.
11 Sinabi ni Joab sa taong nagsabi sa kaniya tungkol kay Absalom, “Tingnan mo! Nakita mo siya! Bakit hindi mo siya hinampas pababa sa lupa? Bibigyan sana kita ng sampung siklong pilak at isang sinturon.”
And he said Joab to the man who had told to him and there! you saw and why? not did you strike down him there [the] ground towards and on me to give to you ten silver and a belt one.
12 Sumagot ang lalaki kay Joab, “Kahit na makatanggap ako ng isanglibong siklong pilak, hindi ko pa rin iaabot ang aking kamay laban sa anak ng hari, dahil narinig naming lahat na inutusan ka ng hari, si Abisai at si Itai, sa pagsasabing, 'Walang isa mang dapat gumalaw sa binatang si Absalom.'
And he said the man to Joab (and if *Q(k)*) I [were] weighing on hands my a thousand silver not I will stretch out hand my against [the] son of the king for in ears our he commanded the king you and Abishai and Ittai saying protect whoever the young man Absalom.
13 Kung inilagay ko sa panganib ang aking buhay sa pamamagitan ng isang kasinungalingan (at walang makukubli mula sa hari), pinabayaan mo nalang sana ako.”
Or I had done (on life my *Q(K)*) falsehood and any thing not it is hidden from the king and you you will stand from in front.
14 Pagkatapos sinabi ni Joab, “Hindi na ako maghihintay sa iyo.” Kaya nagdala si Joab ng tatlong sibat sa kaniyang kamay at isinaksak ang mga ito sa puso ni Absalom, habang buhay pa siya at nakabitin mula sa kahoy.
And he said Joab not thus I will wait before you and he took three spears in hand his and he thrust them in [the] heart of Absalom still he [was] alive in [the] heart of the oak.
15 Pagkatapos pumaligid ang sampung binatang kalalakihang tagadala ng sandata ni Joab kay Absalom, sinalakay siya at pinatay.
And they surrounded [him] ten young men [the] bearers of [the] armor of Joab and they struck Absalom and they killed him.
16 Pagkatapos hinipan ni Joab ang trumpeta at bumalik ang hukbo mula sa pagtugis sa Israel, dahil pinabalik ni Joab ang hukbo.
And he gave a blast Joab on the trumpet and it turned back the people from pursuing after Israel for he restrained Joab the people.
17 Kinuha nila si Absalom at itinapon siya sa isang malaking hukay sa kagubatan; inilibing nila ang kaniyang katawan sa ilalim ng isang malaking tumpok ng mga bato, habang tumatakas ang buong Israel, ang bawat tao sa kanilang sariling tahanan.
And they took Absalom and they threw him in the forest into the pit great and they set up over him a heap of stones great very and all Israel they fled each (to tents his. *Q(K)*)
18 Ngayon si Absalom, Nang buhay pa siya, nagtayo siya para sa kaniyang sarili ng isang malaking haliging bato sa Lambak ng Hari, dahil sinabi niya, “Wala akong anak na lalaki para ipagpatuloy ang alaala ng aking pangalan.” Pinangalanan niya ang haligi kasunod sa kaniyang sariling pangalan, kaya tinawag itong Bantayog ni Absalom hanggang sa araw na ito.
And Absalom he had taken and he had set up for himself (in life his *Q(K)*) a pillar which [is] in [the] valley of the king for he said not [belongs] to me a son in order to cause to be remembered name my and he called the pillar on own name his and it has been called to it [the] monument of Absalom until the day this.
19 Pagkatapos sinabi ni Ahimaaz anak na lalaki ni Zadok, “Pahintulutan mo akong tumakbo ngayon sa hari dala ang mabuting balita, kung paano siya iniligtas ni Yahweh mula sa kaniyang mga kaaway.”
And Ahimaaz [the] son of Zadok he said let me run please and let me bear [the] news to the king that he has vindicated him Yahweh from [the] hand of enemies his.
20 Sinagot siya ni Joab, “Hindi ka magiging tagapagdala ng balita ngayon; dapat mong gawin ito sa ibang araw. Ngayon hindi ka magdadala ng balita dahil patay ang anak na lalaki ng hari.”
And he said to him Joab not [are] a man of news you day this and you will bear news on a day another and day this not you will bear [the] news for (since *Q(K)*) [the] son of the king he has died.
21 Pagkatapos sinabi ni Joab sa isang Cusita, “Humayo ka, sabihin sa hari kung ano ang iyong nakita.” Yumukod ang Cusita kay Joab at tumakbo.
And he said Joab to the Cushite go tell to the king [that] which you have seen and he bowed down [the] Cushite to Joab and he ran.
22 Pagkatapos sinabing muli ni Ahimaaz anak na lalaki ni Zadok kay Joab, “Kahit anuman ang mangyari, pakiusap pahintulutan mo rin akong tumakbo at sundan ang Cusita.” Sumagot si Joab, “Bakit gusto mong tumakbo, anak ko, nakikitang wala kang gantimpala para sa balita?”
And he repeated again Ahimaaz [the] son of Zadok and he said to Joab and may it be whatever let me run please also I after the Cushite and he said Joab why? this [are] you running O son my and [will belong] to you not good news finding.
23 “Anuman ang mangyayari,” sabi ni Ahimaaz, “Tatakbo ako.” Kaya sinagot siya ni Joab, “Takbo.” Pagkatapos tumakbo si Ahimaaz sa daan ng kapatagan at naunahan ang Cusita.
And may it be whatever I will run and he said to him run and he ran Ahimaaz [the] way of the plain and he passed by the Cushite.
24 Ngayon nakaupo si David sa pagitan ng mga panloob at panlabas ng tarangkahan. Umakyat ang bantay sa bubong ng tarangkahan sa pader at itinaas ang kaniyang mata. Habang nakatingin siya, nakakita siya ng isang taong papalapit, mag-isang tumatakbo.
And David [was] sitting between [the] two the gates and he went the watchman to [the] roof of the gate to the wall and he lifted up eyes his and he saw and there! a man [was] running to only him.
25 Sumigaw ang bantay at sinabihan ang hari. Pagkatapos sinabi ng hari, “Kung nag-iisa siya, may balita sa kaniyang bibig.” Dumating ang mananakbo at lumapit sa lugnsod.
And he called out the watchman and he told to the king and he said the king if to only him news [is] in mouth his and he came continuously and approaching.
26 Pagkatapos napansin ng bantay ang isa pang taong tumatakbo at tinawag ng bantay ang bantay ng tarangkahan; sinabi niya, “Tingnan mo, may isa pang lalaking mag-isang tumatakbo.” Sinabi ng hari, “Nagdadala rin siya ng balita.”
And he saw the watchman a man another running and he called out the watchman to the gatekeeper and he said there! a man [is] running to only him and he said the king also this one [is] bearing news.
27 Kaya sinabi ng bantay, “Sa palagay ko ang pagtakbo ng lalaking nasa harapan ay katulad ng pagtakbo ni Ahimaaz anak na lalaki ni Zadok.” Sinabi ng hari, “Mabuti siyang tao at parating siya na may mabuting balita.”
And he said the watchman I [am] seeing [the] running of the first [one] like [the] running of Ahimaaz [the] son of Zadok and he said the king [is] a man good this and with news good he is coming.
28 Pagkatapos sumigaw si Ahimaaz at sinabi sa hari, “Mabuti ang lahat.” At iniyukod niya ang kaniyang sarili sa harapan ng hari na nakadikit ang kaniyang mukha sa lupa at sinabing, “Pagpalain si Yahweh na iyong Diyos, na siyang nagbigay sa mga lalaking nagtaas ng kanilang kamay laban sa aking panginoong hari.”
And he called out Ahimaaz and he said to the king peace and he bowed down to the king to face his [the] ground towards. And he said blessed [be] Yahweh God your who he has delivered up the men who they lifted up hand their against lord my the king.
29 Kaya sumagot ang hari, “Nasa mabuting kalagayan ba ang binatang si Absalom? Sumagot si Ahimaaz, “Nang pinadala ako ni Joab, ang lingkod ng hari, sa iyo, hari, nakita ko ang isang malaking kabalisahan, pero hindi ko alam kung ano ito.”
And he said the king [does] peace? [belong] to the young man to Absalom and he said Ahimaaz I saw the multitude great to send [the] servant of the king Joab and servant your and not I know whatever.
30 Pagkatapos sinabi ng hari, “Lumihis at tumayo rito.” Kaya lumihis si Ahimaaz, at nanatiling nakatayo.
And he said the king go around stand thus and he went around and he stood.
31 Pagkatapos kaagad namang dumating ang Cusita at sinabing, “May mabuting balita para sa aking panginoong hari, dahil ipinaghiganti ka ni Yahweh sa araw na ito mula sa lahat ng nag-alsa laban sa iyo.”
And here! the Cushite [was] coming and he said the Cushite let him receive [the] news lord my the king for he has vindicated you Yahweh this day from [the] hand of all those [who] rose up on you.
32 Pagkatapos sinabi ng hari sa Cusita, “Nasa mabuting kalagayan ba ang binatang si Absalom?” Sumagot ang Cusita, “Ang mga kaaway ng aking panginoong hari at ang lahat nang nag-alsa laban sa iyo, ay dapat matulad pinsala na nangyari sa binatang iyon.”
And he said the king to the Cushite ¿ [does] peace [belong] to the young man to Absalom and he said the Cushite let them be like the young man [the] enemies of lord my the king and all [those] who they have risen up on you for harm.
33 Pagkatapos kinabahan nang matindi ang hari at umakyat siya sa silid sa itaas ng tarangkahan at umiyak. Habang lumalakad nagdalamhati siya, “Absalom anak ko, anak ko, anak kong si Absalom! Ako nalang sana ang namatay sa halip na ikaw, Absalom, anak ko, anak ko!”
And he was agitated the king and he went up to [the] upper room of the gate and he wept and thus - he said when went he O son my Absalom son my son my Absalom who? will he give died I I in place of you O Absalom son my son my.
