καὶ ἐπεσκέψατο Δαυιδ τὸν λαὸν τὸν μετ’ αὐτοῦ καὶ κατέστησεν ἐπ’ αὐτῶν χιλιάρχους καὶ ἑκατοντάρχους
2 Yoab na ɔtuaa wɔn mu nkyɛmu mmiɛnsa mu baako ano. Yoab nuabarima Abisai a na ɔyɛ Seruia babarima na ɔtuaa nkyɛmu mmiɛnsa mu baako nso ano. Ɛnna nkyɛmu mmiɛnsa mu baako a aka no, Gatni Itai na ɔtuaa ano. Ɔhene no ka kyerɛɛ nʼakodɔm no sɛ, “Me ne mo na ɛrekɔ.”
καὶ ἀπέστειλεν Δαυιδ τὸν λαόν τὸ τρίτον ἐν χειρὶ Ιωαβ καὶ τὸ τρίτον ἐν χειρὶ Αβεσσα υἱοῦ Σαρουιας ἀδελφοῦ Ιωαβ καὶ τὸ τρίτον ἐν χειρὶ Εθθι τοῦ Γεθθαίου καὶ εἶπεν Δαυιδ πρὸς τὸν λαόν ἐξελθὼν ἐξελεύσομαι καί γε ἐγὼ μεθ’ ὑμῶν
3 Nanso, ne mmarima no tiaa mu dendeenden sɛ, “Ɛnsɛ sɛ wokɔ bi. Na sɛ ɛba sɛ, ɛsɛ sɛ yɛwae, na yɛdwane, na sɛ mpo, yɛn mu fa koraa wuwu a, ɛrennuru Absalom akodɔm no ho hwee. Wo ara na wɔbɛhwehwɛ. Wo nko ara yɛ yɛn mu ɔpedu enti, ɛyɛ sɛ wobɛtena kurom na sɛ mmoa bi ho hia yɛn a, wode bɛba.”
καὶ εἶπαν οὐκ ἐξελεύσῃ ὅτι ἐὰν φυγῇ φύγωμεν οὐ θήσουσιν ἐφ’ ἡμᾶς καρδίαν καὶ ἐὰν ἀποθάνωμεν τὸ ἥμισυ ἡμῶν οὐ θήσουσιν ἐφ’ ἡμᾶς καρδίαν ὅτι σὺ ὡς ἡμεῖς δέκα χιλιάδες καὶ νῦν ἀγαθὸν ὅτι ἔσῃ ἡμῖν ἐν τῇ πόλει βοήθεια τοῦ βοηθεῖν
4 Ɔhene penee so sɛ, “Sɛ modwene sɛ ɛno ne adwene pa deɛ a, mate.” Enti, ɔkɔgyinaa kuro no ɛpono ano, ɛberɛ a akodɔm no rekɔ no.
καὶ εἶπεν πρὸς αὐτοὺς ὁ βασιλεύς ὃ ἐὰν ἀρέσῃ ἐν ὀφθαλμοῖς ὑμῶν ποιήσω καὶ ἔστη ὁ βασιλεὺς ἀνὰ χεῖρα τῆς πύλης καὶ πᾶς ὁ λαὸς ἐξεπορεύετο εἰς ἑκατοντάδας καὶ εἰς χιλιάδας
5 Na ɔhene no hyɛɛ Yoab, Abisai ne Itai sɛ, “Me enti mo ne abɔfra Absalom nni no bɔkɔɔ so.” Na akodɔm no nyinaa tee saa nhyɛ a ɔhene hyɛɛ nʼasafohene no.
καὶ ἐνετείλατο ὁ βασιλεὺς τῷ Ιωαβ καὶ τῷ Αβεσσα καὶ τῷ Εθθι λέγων φείσασθέ μοι τοῦ παιδαρίου τοῦ Αβεσσαλωμ καὶ πᾶς ὁ λαὸς ἤκουσεν ἐντελλομένου τοῦ βασιλέως πᾶσιν τοῖς ἄρχουσιν ὑπὲρ Αβεσσαλωμ
6 Enti, ɔko no hyɛɛ aseɛ wɔ Efraim kwaeɛ mu.
καὶ ἐξῆλθεν πᾶς ὁ λαὸς εἰς τὸν δρυμὸν ἐξ ἐναντίας Ισραηλ καὶ ἐγένετο ὁ πόλεμος ἐν τῷ δρυμῷ Εφραιμ
7 Na Dawid mmarima no yɛɛ Israel akodɔm no pasaa. Ɛyɛ akofena ano kum, na da no, mmarima ɔpeduonu na wɔhweree wɔn nkwa.
καὶ ἔπταισεν ἐκεῖ ὁ λαὸς Ισραηλ ἐνώπιον τῶν παίδων Δαυιδ καὶ ἐγένετο ἡ θραῦσις μεγάλη ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐκείνῃ εἴκοσι χιλιάδες ἀνδρῶν
8 Ɔko no didi kɔɔ nkuro so, na ɛsiane kwaeɛ no enti, nnipa pii wuwuiɛ sene wɔn a wɔwuu wɔ akofena ano no.
καὶ ἐγένετο ἐκεῖ ὁ πόλεμος διεσπαρμένος ἐπὶ πρόσωπον πάσης τῆς γῆς καὶ ἐπλεόνασεν ὁ δρυμὸς τοῦ καταφαγεῖν ἐκ τοῦ λαοῦ ὑπὲρ οὓς κατέφαγεν ἐν τῷ λαῷ ἡ μάχαιρα ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐκείνῃ
9 Ɔko no gyina mu no, Absalom puee prɛko pɛ wɔ Dawid mmarima no bi mu. Ɔpɛɛ sɛ ɔdwane wɔ nʼafunumpɔnkɔ so, nanso ɔdwane kɔfaa dɔtɔ bi mu wɔ odum bi ase. Ɔdɔtɔ no kyekyeree ne tirinwi, ma ɔkaa mu. Nʼafunumpɔnkɔ no deɛ, na kɔ ara na ɔrekɔ enti, ɔgyaa no hɔ a, ɔsensɛn dɔtɔ no mu a ɔreto adonko wɔ ewiem.
καὶ συνήντησεν Αβεσσαλωμ ἐνώπιον τῶν παίδων Δαυιδ καὶ Αβεσσαλωμ ἐπιβεβηκὼς ἐπὶ τοῦ ἡμιόνου αὐτοῦ καὶ εἰσῆλθεν ὁ ἡμίονος ὑπὸ τὸ δάσος τῆς δρυὸς τῆς μεγάλης καὶ ἐκρεμάσθη ἡ κεφαλὴ αὐτοῦ ἐν τῇ δρυί καὶ ἐκρεμάσθη ἀνὰ μέσον τοῦ οὐρανοῦ καὶ ἀνὰ μέσον τῆς γῆς καὶ ὁ ἡμίονος ὑποκάτω αὐτοῦ παρῆλθεν
10 Dawid mmarima no baako hunuu asɛm a asi no, ɔka kyerɛɛ Yoab sɛ, “Mehunuu Absalom sɛ ɔsensɛn dua bi so wɔ dɔtɔ mu.”
καὶ εἶδεν ἀνὴρ εἷς καὶ ἀνήγγειλεν Ιωαβ καὶ εἶπεν ἰδοὺ ἑώρακα τὸν Αβεσσαλωμ κρεμάμενον ἐν τῇ δρυί
11 Yoab bisaa sɛ, “Asɛm pa ara? Wohunuu no na woanku no? Anka mɛma wo dwetɛ gram ɔha ne dunan ne akokoɔduru abɔwomu sɛ akradeɛ.”
καὶ εἶπεν Ιωαβ τῷ ἀνδρὶ τῷ ἀπαγγέλλοντι καὶ ἰδοὺ ἑόρακας τί ὅτι οὐκ ἐπάταξας αὐτὸν εἰς τὴν γῆν καὶ ἐγὼ ἂν δεδώκειν σοι δέκα ἀργυρίου καὶ παραζώνην μίαν
12 Ɔbarima no buaa sɛ, “Sɛ anka wobɛma me dwetɛ kilogram dubaako ne fa koraa a, anka merenyɛ saa. Yɛn nyinaa tee sɛ, ɔhene ka kyerɛɛ wo, Abisai ne Itai sɛ, ‘Me enti, obiara nnyɛ aberanteɛ Absalom bɔne.’
εἶπεν δὲ ὁ ἀνὴρ πρὸς Ιωαβ καὶ ἐγώ εἰμι ἵστημι ἐπὶ τὰς χεῖράς μου χιλίους σίκλους ἀργυρίου οὐ μὴ ἐπιβάλω χεῖρά μου ἐπὶ τὸν υἱὸν τοῦ βασιλέως ὅτι ἐν τοῖς ὠσὶν ἡμῶν ἐνετείλατο ὁ βασιλεὺς σοὶ καὶ Αβεσσα καὶ τῷ Εθθι λέγων φυλάξατέ μοι τὸ παιδάριον τὸν Αβεσσαλωμ
13 Na sɛ mebu ɔhene asɛm so kum ne babarima a, anka deɛ ɛbɛyɛ biara, ɔhene bɛhwehwɛ deɛ ɔyɛɛ saa. Na anka wʼankasa ne onipa a anka wobɛyi me ama.”
μὴ ποιῆσαι ἐν τῇ ψυχῇ αὐτοῦ ἄδικον καὶ πᾶς ὁ λόγος οὐ λήσεται ἀπὸ τοῦ βασιλέως καὶ σὺ στήσῃ ἐξ ἐναντίας
14 Yoab kaa sɛ, “Saa nkwaseasɛm yi ayɛ yie.” Enti, ɔtwee mpɛmɛ mmiɛnsa de wowɔɔ Absalom akoma mu ɛberɛ a na ɔsensɛn odum no so a na ɔnwuiɛ no.
καὶ εἶπεν Ιωαβ τοῦτο ἐγὼ ἄρξομαι οὐχ οὕτως μενῶ ἐνώπιόν σου καὶ ἔλαβεν Ιωαβ τρία βέλη ἐν τῇ χειρὶ αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐνέπηξεν αὐτὰ ἐν τῇ καρδίᾳ Αβεσσαλωμ ἔτι αὐτοῦ ζῶντος ἐν τῇ καρδίᾳ τῆς δρυὸς
15 Yoab akodeɛkurafoɔ no mu mmeranteɛ edu twaa Absalom ho hyiaeɛ, na wɔkumm no.
καὶ ἐκύκλωσαν δέκα παιδάρια αἴροντα τὰ σκεύη Ιωαβ καὶ ἐπάταξαν τὸν Αβεσσαλωμ καὶ ἐθανάτωσαν αὐτόν
16 Na Yoab hyɛnee totorobɛnto, maa akodɔm no gyaee Israel so taa.
καὶ ἐσάλπισεν Ιωαβ ἐν κερατίνῃ καὶ ἀπέστρεψεν ὁ λαὸς τοῦ μὴ διώκειν ὀπίσω Ισραηλ ὅτι ἐφείδετο Ιωαβ τοῦ λαοῦ
17 Wɔfaa Absalom amu no to twenee amena donkudonku bi mu wɔ kwaeɛ mu hɔ, na wɔsoaa abotan guu ne so. Na Israelfoɔ no nyinaa dwane kɔɔ wɔn afie.
καὶ ἔλαβεν τὸν Αβεσσαλωμ καὶ ἔρριψεν αὐτὸν εἰς χάσμα μέγα ἐν τῷ δρυμῷ εἰς τὸν βόθυνον τὸν μέγαν καὶ ἐστήλωσεν ἐπ’ αὐτὸν σωρὸν λίθων μέγαν σφόδρα καὶ πᾶς Ισραηλ ἔφυγεν ἀνὴρ εἰς τὸ σκήνωμα αὐτοῦ

καὶ Αβεσσαλωμ ἔτι ζῶν καὶ ἔστησεν ἑαυτῷ τὴν στήλην ἐν ᾗ ἐλήμφθη καὶ ἐστήλωσεν αὐτὴν λαβεῖν τὴν στήλην τὴν ἐν τῇ κοιλάδι τοῦ βασιλέως ὅτι εἶπεν οὐκ ἔστιν αὐτῷ υἱὸς ἕνεκεν τοῦ ἀναμνῆσαι τὸ ὄνομα αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐκάλεσεν τὴν στήλην Χεὶρ Αβεσσαλωμ ἕως τῆς ἡμέρας ταύτης
19 Na Sadok babarima Ahimaas kaa sɛ, “Momma mentu mmirika nkɔbɔ ɔhene amaneɛ sɛ, Awurade ayi no afiri atamfoɔ nsam.”
καὶ Αχιμαας υἱὸς Σαδωκ εἶπεν δράμω δὴ καὶ εὐαγγελιῶ τῷ βασιλεῖ ὅτι ἔκρινεν αὐτῷ κύριος ἐκ χειρὸς τῶν ἐχθρῶν αὐτοῦ
20 Na Yoab nso ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Sɛ ɔhene ba awu a, ɛnyɛ asɛm papa mma no. Wobɛtumi akɔbɔ saa amaneɛ no ɛda foforɔ bi, na ɛnyɛ ɛnnɛ.”
καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ Ιωαβ οὐκ ἀνὴρ εὐαγγελίας σὺ ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ταύτῃ καὶ εὐαγγελιῇ ἐν ἡμέρᾳ ἄλλῃ ἐν δὲ τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ταύτῃ οὐκ εὐαγγελιῇ οὗ εἵνεκεν ὁ υἱὸς τοῦ βασιλέως ἀπέθανεν
21 Na Yoab ka kyerɛɛ Kusni bi sɛ, “Kɔ na kɔka deɛ woahunu no kyerɛ ɔhene.” Ɛhɔ ara na Kusni no bɔɔ ne mu ase wɔ Yoab anim, na ɔtuu mmirika kɔeɛ.
καὶ εἶπεν Ιωαβ τῷ Χουσι βαδίσας ἀνάγγειλον τῷ βασιλεῖ ὅσα εἶδες καὶ προσεκύνησεν Χουσι τῷ Ιωαβ καὶ ἐξῆλθεν
22 Bio, Sadok babarima Ahimaas ka kyerɛɛ Yoab sɛ, “Deɛ ɛbɛba biara mmra, ma me ne Kusni no nkɔ.” Nanso, Yoab bisaa no sɛ, “Me ba, adɛn enti na wopɛ sɛ wokɔ? Wonni amanneɛbɔ biara a ɛbɛma wo abasobɔdeɛ biara.”
καὶ προσέθετο ἔτι Αχιμαας υἱὸς Σαδωκ καὶ εἶπεν πρὸς Ιωαβ καὶ ἔστω ὅτι δράμω καί γε ἐγὼ ὀπίσω τοῦ Χουσι καὶ εἶπεν Ιωαβ ἵνα τί τοῦτο τρέχεις υἱέ μου δεῦρο οὐκ ἔστιν σοι εὐαγγελία εἰς ὠφέλειαν πορευομένῳ
23 Ɔkaa sɛ, “Mepene so, nanso ma menkɔ.” Enti Yoab ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Kɔ!” Na Ahimaas faa tata no so kɔeɛ, kɔsianee Kusni no ho.
καὶ εἶπεν τί γὰρ ἐὰν δραμοῦμαι καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ Ιωαβ δράμε καὶ ἔδραμεν Αχιμαας ὁδὸν τὴν τοῦ Κεχαρ καὶ ὑπερέβη τὸν Χουσι
24 Ɛberɛ a Dawid te kuro no ɛpono ano no, ne wɛmfoɔ no kɔɔ kuro no ɛpono no atifi wɔ ɔfasuo no so. Ɔtoo nʼani no, ɔhunuu sɛ obi de mmirika reba.
καὶ Δαυιδ ἐκάθητο ἀνὰ μέσον τῶν δύο πυλῶν καὶ ἐπορεύθη ὁ σκοπὸς εἰς τὸ δῶμα τῆς πύλης πρὸς τὸ τεῖχος καὶ ἐπῆρεν τοὺς ὀφθαλμοὺς αὐτοῦ καὶ εἶδεν καὶ ἰδοὺ ἀνὴρ τρέχων μόνος ἐνώπιον αὐτοῦ
25 Ɔwɛmfoɔ no teaam ka kyerɛɛ Dawid na ɔhene no buaa sɛ, “Sɛ ɔno nko ara na ɔnam deɛ a, ebia, na ɔde asɛm pa nam.” Na ɔreba ara, na ɔpinkyɛe.
καὶ ἀνεβόησεν ὁ σκοπὸς καὶ ἀπήγγειλεν τῷ βασιλεῖ καὶ εἶπεν ὁ βασιλεύς εἰ μόνος ἐστίν εὐαγγελία ἐν τῷ στόματι αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐπορεύετο πορευόμενος καὶ ἐγγίζων
26 Afei ɔwɛmfoɔ no hunuu sɛ ɔbarima foforɔ nso di so reba, na ɔteaam sɛ, “Hwɛ onipa foforɔ bi de mmirika reba!” Ɔhene no kaa sɛ, “Ebia, na ɔno nso de asɛm pa na ɛnam.”
καὶ εἶδεν ὁ σκοπὸς ἄνδρα ἕτερον τρέχοντα καὶ ἐβόησεν ὁ σκοπὸς πρὸς τῇ πύλῃ καὶ εἶπεν ἰδοὺ ἀνὴρ ἕτερος τρέχων μόνος καὶ εἶπεν ὁ βασιλεύς καί γε οὗτος εὐαγγελιζόμενος
27 Ɔwɛmfoɔ no kaa sɛ, “Ɔbarima a ɔdi ɛkan no sɛ Sadok babarima Ahimaas.” Ɔhene no kaa sɛ, “Ɔyɛ onipa pa a, ɔde asɛm pa nam.”
καὶ εἶπεν ὁ σκοπός ἐγὼ ὁρῶ τὸν δρόμον τοῦ πρώτου ὡς δρόμον Αχιμαας υἱοῦ Σαδωκ καὶ εἶπεν ὁ βασιλεύς ἀνὴρ ἀγαθὸς οὗτος καί γε εἰς εὐαγγελίαν ἀγαθὴν ἐλεύσεται
28 Na Ahimaas teaam, frɛɛ ɔhene no sɛ, “Biribiara yɛ!” Ɔkotoo wɔ ɔhene no anim, de nʼanim butuu fam kaa sɛ, “Animuonyam nka Awurade, wo Onyankopɔn. Ɔde nnipa a wɔyɛɛ dɔm tiaa me wura ɔhene ahyɛ ne nsa.”
καὶ ἐβόησεν Αχιμαας καὶ εἶπεν πρὸς τὸν βασιλέα εἰρήνη καὶ προσεκύνησεν τῷ βασιλεῖ ἐπὶ πρόσωπον αὐτοῦ ἐπὶ τὴν γῆν καὶ εἶπεν εὐλογητὸς κύριος ὁ θεός σου ὃς ἀπέκλεισεν τοὺς ἄνδρας τοὺς μισοῦντας τὴν χεῖρα αὐτῶν ἐν τῷ κυρίῳ μου τῷ βασιλεῖ
29 Ɔhene bisaa sɛ, “Na aberanteɛ, Absalom ho yɛ anaa?” Ahimaas buaa sɛ, “Ɛberɛ a Yoab yɛɛ nʼadwene sɛ ɔpɛ sɛ ɔsoma ɔhene ɔsomfoɔ ne me wo ɔsomfoɔ no, mehunuu sɛ nneɛma ayɛ basaa a na menhunu mu yie.”
καὶ εἶπεν ὁ βασιλεύς εἰρήνη τῷ παιδαρίῳ τῷ Αβεσσαλωμ καὶ εἶπεν Αχιμαας εἶδον τὸ πλῆθος τὸ μέγα τοῦ ἀποστεῖλαι τὸν δοῦλον τοῦ βασιλέως Ιωαβ καὶ τὸν δοῦλόν σου καὶ οὐκ ἔγνων τί ἐκεῖ
30 Ɔhene ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Gyina nkyɛn ha na twɛn.” Enti, ɔgyinaa nkyɛn twɛnee.

καὶ εἶπεν ὁ βασιλεὺς πρὸς τὸν Χουσι εἰ εἰρήνη τῷ παιδαρίῳ τῷ Αβεσσαλωμ καὶ εἶπεν ὁ Χουσι γένοιντο ὡς τὸ παιδάριον οἱ ἐχθροὶ τοῦ κυρίου μου τοῦ βασιλέως καὶ πάντες ὅσοι ἐπανέστησαν ἐπ’ αὐτὸν εἰς κακά

καὶ ἐταράχθη ὁ βασιλεὺς καὶ ἀνέβη εἰς τὸ ὑπερῷον τῆς πύλης καὶ ἔκλαυσεν καὶ οὕτως εἶπεν ἐν τῷ πορεύεσθαι αὐτόν υἱέ μου Αβεσσαλωμ υἱέ μου υἱέ μου Αβεσσαλωμ τίς δῴη τὸν θάνατόν μου ἀντὶ σοῦ ἐγὼ ἀντὶ σοῦ Αβεσσαλωμ υἱέ μου υἱέ μου
