2-Şamuelin 2
1 Sabara gah ılğevç'uyle qiyğa, Davudee Rəbbike qiyghanan: – Zı Yahudayne nenemecar şahareeqa hak'nene? Rəbbee eyhen: – Hak'ne. Davudee qiyghanan: – Nyaqane hak'ne? Rəbbee eyhen: – Xevroneeqa.
Some time after that, David asked Yahweh, “Should I go back to [live in] one of the towns in Judah?” Yahweh replied, “Yes, go up there.” Then David asked, “To which town should I go?” Yahweh replied, “To Hebron.”
2 Davudur maqa cune q'öyursana xhunaşşeyka hayk'anna: İzre'elyğançena Axinoamır, Karmelyğançena Navalna sip'ıriy Avigailer.
So David went up there, taking his two wives, Ahinoam who was from Jezreel [city], and Abigail, the widow of Nabal from Carmel [city].
3 Davudee cukan insanarıb cone xizanbışika Xevronqa qabı, mançine hiqiy-allane şaharbışee manbışis aaxvasın cigabı hele.
He also took the men who had been with him, and their families. They all started to live in villages near Hebron.
4 Yahudayeençen insanar abı, Davudulqa q'ış qadğu, maa'ar mang'uke Yahudayne nasılına paççah ha'a. Maa'ad Davuduk'le uvhumee, Şaul Gileadeene Yaveşne milletın k'eyxhıva,
Then the men of Judah came to Hebron, and [one of] them poured olive oil on David’s head [to show they were appointing him to be] [MTY] the king of the tribe [MTY] of Judah. When David found out that the people of Jabesh [town] in [the] Gilead [region] had buried Saul’s body,
5 Davudee maqa cun insanar g'uxoole. Mang'vee cune insanaaşik'le eyhen: – Maane milletılqa in yizın cuvab hixhar he'e: «Rəbbee şos xayir-düə hevlecen, vuşda xərna eyxhene Şaulus, şu yugvalla hav'u, mana k'eyxhıva.
he sent messengers to the men of Jabesh to tell them this: “I desire/hope that Yahweh will bless you for having shown, by burying the body of Saul your king, that you were loyal to him.
6 Hasre mane vuşde işil-alla Rəbbee Cuna badal dyooxhena yugvalla şos haagvecen. Zınad mane vuşde işil-alla şos yugun ha'as.
Now I also desire/hope that Yahweh will faithfully love you and be loyal to you. And I will do good things for you because of what you have done [for Saul].
7 Vuşda xərna eyxhena Şaul qik'uva şu həşde xıleppı avqa qıma'a, it'umba ulyoozre. Yahudayne nasılen, cosda paççah zake hı'ı».
Now, although Saul your king is dead, be strong and courageous, like the people of Judah, who have appointed me to be their king.”
8 Şaulne g'oşunbışde q'oma ulyorzuling'vee Nerne duxee Avneree, Şaulna dix İşboşet cukasana Maxanayimeeqa qıkkı ıxha.
[While this was happening], Ner’s son Abner, the commander of Saul’s army, took Saul’s son Ishbosheth and went across [the Jordan River] to Mahanaim [town].
9 Maa'ar Avneree mana Gileadne, Aşuriyne, İzre'elyne, Efrayimne, Benyaminne cigabışee vooxhene insanaaşde – gırgıne İzrailyna paççah ha'a.
There Abner proclaimed that Ishbosheth was now the king of [the] Gilead [region] and of the tribe of Asher and the region of Jezreel and the tribes of Ephraim and Benjamin. That meant that he was the king of all of the people of Israel.
10 Şaulne duxayqa, İşboşetıqa, İzrailyna paççah ıxhayng'a yoq'ts'al senniy vod. Mang'una paççahiyvalla q'ölle senna ts'ıts'avxha. Yahudayne nasılınmee, Davudun sura aqqı ıxha.
Ishbosheth was 40 years old when he started to rule over the people of Israel. He ruled them for two years. But the tribe of Judah (was loyal to David/wanted David to be their king),
11 Davudee Xevronee, Yahudayne nasıles paççahiyvalla yighılle sennayiy yixhıble vazna hav'u.
and he ruled them for seven and a half years while he was living in Hebron.
12 Yiğbışde sa yiğıl Nerna dix Avner, Şaulne duxayne İşboşetne insanaaşika Maxanayimğançe Giveoneeqa hayk'an.
[One day] Abner and the officials of Isbosheth went from Mahanaim [across the Jordan River] to Gibeon [city].
13 Tseruya donane zəiyfayna dix Yoavmee, Davudne insanaaşika Giveonusneene xhyan sadıyne cigaysqa, manbışde ögilqa qığeç'e. Yoav cune insanaaşika xhyan sadıyne cigayne sa aq'val, Avnerır cune insanaaşika – manisa aq'val giy'ar.
Joab, whose mother was Zeruiah, and some of David’s officials [went from Hebron to Gibeon, and] met at the pool there. They all sat down, the one group on one side of the pool and the other group on the other side.
14 Avneree Yoavık'le eyhen: – Havaasre mek'vunbı suğootsu, yişde ögil saç'ivkvecen. Yoaveeyid eyhen: – Havaasre saç'ivkvecen.
Abner said to Joab, “Let’s tell some of our young men to fight each other!” Joab replied, “Okay!”
15 Şaulne duxayne İşboşetne sural sıç'ookvan Benyaminaaşin mek'vunbı qəpqı'mee, yits'ıq'vayre insan eyxhe. Davudne suraler yits'ıq'vayre eyxhe.
So twelve men from the tribe of Benjamin fought for Ishbosheth, against twelve of David’s soldiers.
16 Manbışe sana-sananbı vuk'ulbışike avqu, g'ılıncbı hiyxə. Manbışin gırgınbı habat'anbı. Mançil-allad Giveoneene mane cigayk'le Xelqat-Hatsurimva (G'ılıncbışin çol) eyhe.
Each of them grabbed the head of the man against whom he was fighting, and thrust his sword into that man’s side. The result was that all 24 of them fell down dead. So that area in Gibeon is now called ‘Field of Swords’.
17 Mane yiğıl ma'ad geed it'umın saç'ikkvuy ıxha. Avneriy İzrailybı, Davudne insanaaşis maa'ab avub avxu.
Then [the others started to fight]. It was a very fierce battle. Abner and the men of Israel were defeated by David’s soldiers.
18 Tseruya donane zəiyfayna xhebırsana dix: Yoav, Avişay, Asahelib maa'ab vooxhe. Asahel, çolana ceyran xhinne, g'elike ek'ra ıxha.
Zeruiah’s three sons were there [on that day]: Joab, Abishai, and Asahel. Asahel was able to run very fast; he could run as fast as a wild gazelle/antelope.
19 Mana neng'uqacar ilydyakkı, Avnerıqa qihna girxhu. Mang'uqar qihna g'adayhvanmee,
Asahel started to pursue Abner. He ran straight toward Abner, without stopping.
20 Avner yı'q'əlqa ilyakkı, eyhen: – Asahel, ğune vor? Mang'vee eyhen: – Ho'o, zı vorna.
Abner looked behind him, and said “Is that you, Asahel?” Asahel replied, “Yes!”
21 Avneree mang'uk'le eyhen: – Yiğne sağıqa, soluqa sa ilekke. Mane mek'vunbışda sa aqqı, manbışin silahbı g'ayşe. Asaheleemee Avnerıke xıl ts'ıts'a'a vuxha deş.
Abner yelled at him, “Turn to one side or the other, [and pursue someone else]!” But Asahel would not stop pursuing Abner.
22 Avneree, Asahelik'le meed eyhen: – Zaqar qihna gimexha, zake xıl ts'ıts'ee'e! Nişil-allane zı ğu gik'as? Qiyğa zı yiğne çoçune Yoavne aq'veeqa nəxürna ilyakkas?
So Abner yelled at him again, “Stop (chasing after/pursuing) me! (Why should I kill you?/It would not be good for me to kill you!) [RHQ] If I did that, (how could I (face/be reconciled with) your brother Joab?/it would be very difficult for me to (face/be reconciled with) your brother Joab.) [RHQ]”
23 Asahelee meeb mang'uke xıl ts'ıts'aa'a deş. Manke Avneree cun nize alyat'u, cık'rıhiyna mang'une vuxhnele k'ena məxüd ı'xiyxə, cık'rı mang'une yı'q'ək ciga hı'ı qığeç'e. Asahel qukkyorkul cigeecar qek'ana. Mançile qiyğa Asahel qik'uyne cigaysse ı'lğən gırgınbı, maa'ab ulydyobzur ılğeebaç'e vuxha deş.
But Asahel refused to stop pursuing Abner. So Abner [suddenly turned and] thrust the butt end of his spear into Asahel’s stomach. Because he thrust it very strongly, that end of the spear [went though Asahel’s body and] came out at his back, and he fell to the ground, dead. All the other soldiers who came to the place where his body was lying stopped and stood there, [stunned].
24 Yoaviy Avişay Avnerıqa qihna g'adaaxhvan. Verığ k'yooçemee, manbı qabı hiviyxharanbı Giveonne sahrayne yəqqı'lyne Giahne ögilyne Ammava eyhene tepalqa.
But Joab and Abishai continued to pursue Abner. At sunset they came to Ammah Hill, which is east of Giah, along the road to the desert near Gibeon.
25 Benyaminaaşinbı Avnerne hiqiy-alla savayle. Qiyğab apk'ın, sa tepayne q'omaqa ılqeepç'ı, maayib ulyoozaranbı.
The men from the tribe of Benjamin gathered around Abner in one group, and stood at the top of a hill.
26 Avneree ts'irıka Yoavık'le eyhen: – Şi mısılqameene g'ılıncıke hapt'as? Nya'a, vak'le ats'a dişdiy, nekke qiyğa yugdacad ixhes deş? Ğu yiğne insanaaşik'le mısane eyhes, cone çocaaşiqab qihna gimabak'va?
Then Abner called out to Joab, saying “Are we going to continue to fight forever [RHQ]? Do you not realize that [if we continue fighting], the result will be very bad [RHQ]? We are all descendants of Jacob. [So we should stop fighting each other] (How long will it be until you tell your soldiers to stop pursuing us?/Tell your soldiers to stop pursuing us.)” [RHQ]
27 Yoavee eyhen: – Vorne Allahılqa k'ın ixhen, ğu manva ittevhuynxhiy, yizın insanar cone çocaaşiqa qihna miç'eebilqamee gyapk'asınbıniy.
Joab replied, “Just as surely as God lives, if you had not said that, my soldiers would have continued pursuing your men until tomorrow morning!”
28 Qiyğa Yoavee şeypur əlüvxümee, manbışin gırgınbı ulyoozaranbı. İzrailybışiqa qihna gyapk'iy ç'əvə'an, manbışika sayib sıç'ookka deş.
So Joab blew a trumpet [to signal that they should stop fighting]. So all his men did that. They did not pursue the soldiers of Israel any more, and they stopped fighting.
29 Avneriy cun insanar xəmvolle Arava eyhene q'adaalile k'ena avayk'an. Manbı İordanne damayle ılğeepç'ı, Bitronule k'ena qabı, Maxanayimeeqa hiviyxhar.
That night Abner and his soldiers went through the Jordan [River] Valley. They crossed the Jordan [River] and marched all the next morning, and they finally arrived at Mahanaim.
30 Yoavee, Avnerıqa qihna girxhuy ç'əv hı'ı sark'ılymee, cuna g'oşun sa'a. Asahelıle ğayrı Davudne insanaaşike yits'ıyüç'ər insan hiyxhar deşiy.
Joab [and his soldiers] stopped pursuing Abner. And when he gathered all his soldiers together, he found out that in addition to Asahel, only 19 of them had been killed in the battle.
31 Davudne insanaaşemee, Benyaminaaşina, Avnerne insanaaşina, xhebıd vəşşe yixhts'al insan gek'a.
But David’s soldiers had killed 360 of Abner’s men, all from the tribe of Benjamin.
32 Asahel Bet-Lexemqa qıkkı, cune dekkına nyaq'vanane mağaree k'eyxha. Yoaveeyiy cune insanaaşe xəmvolle yəq avayk'an, miç'eebiys manbı qabı Xevronqa hiviyxhar.
[Some of Joab’s soldiers] took Asahel’s body and buried it in the tomb where his father had been buried, in Bethlehem. Then they marched all during the night, and at dawn they arrived [back home] at Hebron.
