II Sa-mu-ên 13

1 Hoàng tử Áp-sa-lôm, con Vua Đa-vít có một em gái rất đẹp tên là Ta-ma. Am-nôn, anh cùng cha khác mẹ của nàng, say mê nàng.

And it was after thus and [belonged] to Absalom [the] son of David a sister a beautiful and name her [was] Tamar and he loved her Amnon [the] son of David.

2 Nhưng vì Công chúa Ta-ma là một trinh nữ nên Am-nôn khó lòng tiếp xúc với nàng. Am-nôn sinh ra tương tư đến bệnh.

And it was distress to Amnon to make himself sick for sake of Tamar sister his for [was] a virgin she and it was difficult in [the] eyes of Amnon to do to her anything.

3 Am-nôn có một người bạn rất khôn lanh tên là Giô-na-đáp, con Si-mê-i, anh Đa-vít.

And [belonged] to Amnon a friend and name his [was] Jonadab [the] son of Shimeah [the] brother of David and Jonadab [was] a man shrewd very.

4 Một hôm Giô-na-đáp hỏi Am-nôn: “Sao hoàng tử mỗi ngày một tiều tụy vậy? Có chuyện gì không?” Am-nôn tâm sự: “Tôi yêu say mê Ta-ma, em của Áp-sa-lôm.”

And he said to him why? [are] you thus weak O son of the king in the morning in the morning ¿ not will you tell to me and he said to him Amnon Tamar [the] sister of Absalom brother my I [am] loving.

5 Giô-na-đáp bàn kế: “Này nhá, hoàng tử giả bệnh, nằm trên giường, khi vua cha đến thăm, hoàng tử nói: ‘Xin cho Ta-ma đến đây nấu nướng, săn sóc miếng ăn cho con.’”

And he said to him Jonadab lie down on bed your and make yourself sick and he will come father your to see you and you will say to him let her come please Tamar sister my and let her cause to eat me food and she will make to eyes my the food so that that I may see and I will eat from hand her.

6 Vậy, Am-nôn theo kế thi hành. Khi vua đến, Am-nôn xin vua cho Ta-ma em gái mình đến làm bánh cho mình ăn.

And he lay down Amnon and he made himself sick and he came the king to see him and he said Amnon to the king let her come please Tamar sister my and let her make cakes to eyes my two cakes so I may eat from hand her.

7 Đa-vít sai người gọi Ta-ma, bảo nàng đến nhà Am-nôn, nấu ăn cho anh.

And he sent David to Tamar the house towards saying go please [the] house of Amnon brother your and make for him the food.

8 Ta-ma đến, lấy bột nhồi, làm bánh đem nướng trước mặt anh mình. Lúc ấy Am-nôn đang nằm trên giường.

And she went Tamar [the] house of Amnon brother her and he [was] lying down and she took the dough (and she kneaded [it] *Q(k)*) and she made cakes to eyes his and she cooked the cakes.

9 Nhưng khi nàng đem bánh lên, Am-nôn từ chối không ăn, bảo: “Mọi người khác ra đi khỏi đây.” Họ vâng lời, ra khỏi nhà.

And she took the pan and she poured out before him and he refused to eat and he said Amnon send out every person from with me and they went out every person from with him.

10 Am-nôn nói với Ta-ma: “Bưng bánh vào phòng cho anh ăn.” Ta-ma vâng lời anh.

And he said Amnon to Tamar bring the food the chamber so I may eat from hand your and she took Tamar the cakes which she had made and she brought [them] to Amnon brother her the chamber towards.

11 Nhưng khi nàng đem bánh tới, Am-nôn nắm lấy nàng, nói: “Ngủ với anh.”

And she brought [them] to him to eat and he took hold on her and he said to her come lie with me O sister my.

12 Nàng phản đối: “Đừng anh, đừng ép tôi. Trong Ít-ra-ên không ai làm chuyện ô nhục điên rồ như thế.

And she said to him may [you] not O brother my may not you humble me for not it will be done thus in Israel may not you do the disgraceful folly this.

13 Phần tôi, tôi sẽ mang nhục này đi đâu? Còn anh, sẽ bị coi là phường phóng đãng. Vậy, xin anh hãy thưa với vua, chắc vua sẽ không cấm anh cưới tôi đâu.”

And I where? will I bring reproach my and you you will be like one of the fools in Israel and now speak please to the king for not he will withhold me from you.

14 Nhưng Am-nôn không chịu nghe nàng và dùng sức mạnh cưỡng hiếp nàng.

And not he was willing to listen to voice her and he was strong more than her and he humbled her and he lay with with her.

15 Rồi bỗng nhiên, Am-nôn đổi yêu ra ghét. Bây giờ Am-nôn ghét nàng còn hơn khi say mê nàng nữa, nên quay sang đuổi nàng: “Đi ra khỏi đây!”

And he hated her Amnon hatred great very that [was] great the hatred which he hated her more than [the] love which he had loved her and he said to her Amnon get up go.

16 Ta-ma nói: “Đừng anh, đừng làm một việc xấu hơn việc anh vừa mới làm.” Nhưng Am-nôn không nghe,

And she said to him may not [the] causes of the evil great this [be] more than [the] other which you have done with me to send away me and not he was willing to listen to her.

17 gọi đầy tớ bảo đuổi nàng ra rồi đóng cửa lại.

And he summoned young man his [who] served him and he said send away please this [woman] from with me the outside towards and lock the door after her.

18 Vậy, đầy tớ kéo nàng ra ngoài và đóng cửa lại. Lúc ấy nàng mặc một chiếc áo dài có tay cũng như các công chúa trinh trắng khác thường mặc.

And [was] on her a long garment of palms and soles for thus they wore [the] daughters of the king the virgins robes and he made go out her servant his the outside and he locked the door after her.

19 Ta-ma lấy tro bỏ lên đầu, xé rách áo dài đang mặc, hai tay ôm đầu, vừa đi vừa khóc.

And she took Tamar ash[es] on head her and [the] long garment of the palms and soles which [was] on her she tore and she put hand her on head her and she went continuously and she cried out.

20 Áp-sa-lôm, anh Ta-ma, hỏi nàng: “Am-nôn cưỡng hiếp em phải không? Từ giờ em hãy giữ im lặng. Dù sao người ấy cũng là anh của em. Không cần phải lo lắng.” Từ đó, Ta-ma sống cô đơn buồn thảm trong nhà Áp-sa-lôm, anh mình.

And he said to her Absalom brother her ¿ Amnon brother your has he been with you and now O sister my keep silent [is] brother your he may not you set heart your to the matter this and she dwelt Tamar a desolate [woman] [the] house of Absalom brother her.

21 Vua Đa-vít nghe được chuyện này, rất tức giận.

And the king David he heard all the things these and it burned to him exceedingly.

22 Còn Áp-sa-lôm ghét cay ghét đắng Am-nôn về việc người ấy đã làm với em mình.

And not he spoke Absalom with Amnon from bad and unto good for he hated Absalom Amnon on [the] thing that he had humbled Tamar sister his.

23 Hai năm sau, nhân dịp Áp-sa-lôm có cuộc xén lông chiên ở Ba-anh Hát-so, gần Ép-ra-im, Áp-sa-lôm sai mời tất cả các hoàng tử đến dự.

And it was to two years days and they belonged shearers to Absalom at Baal Hazor which [is] near Ephraim and he invited Absalom all [the] sons of the king.

24 Ông đến thưa với vua: “Nhân ngày con tổ chức xén lông chiên, xin mời vua và quần thần đến chơi.”

And he went Absalom to the king and he said here! please shearers [belong] to servant your let him go please the king and servants his with servant your.

25 Vua đáp: “Không nên, nếu mọi người kéo tới thì con sẽ không lo xuể.” Dù Áp-sa-lôm năn nỉ, vua chỉ chúc phước cho chứ không nhận lời.

And he said the king to Absalom may [we] not O son my may not please we go all of us and not we will be heavy on you and he urged him and not he was willing to go and he blessed him.

26 Áp-sa-lôm lại thưa: “Nếu cha không đi, xin cho anh Am-nôn đi vậy.” Vua hỏi: “Tại sao Am-nôn phải đi?”

And he said Absalom and not let him go please with us Amnon brother my and he said to him the king why? will he go with you.

27 Nhưng Áp-sa-lôm năn nỉ mãi cho đến khi vua bằng lòng cho Am-nôn và các hoàng tử đi.

And he urged him Absalom and he sent with him Amnon and all [the] sons of the king.

28 Áp-sa-lôm dặn các đầy tớ mình: “Hãy đợi khi Am-nôn uống say; ta sẽ ra dấu thì các ngươi giết hắn! Đừng sợ, vì các ngươi chỉ vâng theo lệnh ta.”

And he commanded Absalom servants his saying look please when is good [the] heart of Amnon with the wine and I will say to you strike down Amnon and you will kill him may not you be afraid ¿ In-deed I I have commanded you be strong and become sons of strength.

29 Vậy, các đầy tớ Áp-sa-lôm giết Am-nôn theo lệnh chủ. Các hoàng tử khác vội vàng cưỡi la chạy trốn.

And they did [the] servants of Absalom to Amnon just as he had commanded Absalom and they arose - all [the] sons of the king and they mounted each on mule his and they fled.

30 Họ chưa về tới, Đa-vít được tin báo “Áp-sa-lôm giết hết các hoàng tử, không sót một người.”

And it was they [were] on the way and the report it came to David saying he has struck down Absalom all [the] sons of the king and not he is left of them one.

31 Vua đứng dậy, xé áo mình, rồi phủ phục dưới đất. Quần thần có mặt tại đó cũng đều xé áo mình.

And he arose the king and he tore garments his and he lay down [the] ground towards and all servants his [were] standing torn of garments.

32 Lúc ấy, Giô-na-đáp, con Si-mê-i, anh Đa-vít, lên tiếng: “Không phải tất cả các hoàng tử đều bị giết đâu. Chỉ một mình Am-nôn chết mà thôi. Vì Áp-sa-lôm đã chủ tâm xếp đặt việc này từ ngày Ta-ma bị Am-nôn cưỡng hiếp.

And he answered Jonadab - [the] son of Shimeah [the] brother of David and he said may not he say lord my all the young men [the] sons of the king they have killed for Amnon to only him he has died for on [the] mouth of Absalom it was determined from [the] day humbled he Tamar sister his.

33 Vậy xin đừng buồn phiền quá về chuyện ấy vì tưởng rằng các con trai vua đều chết hết. Chỉ một mình Am-nôn chết mà thôi”

And therefore may not he set lord my the king to heart his a word saying all [the] sons of the king they have died that (except *Q(K)*) Amnon to only him he has died.

34 Lúc ấy, Áp-sa-lôm bỏ trốn. Người lính đứng trên vọng canh nhìn ra, thấy một đám đông từ xa đi tới theo lối ven đồi.

And he fled Absalom and he lifted up the servant who kept watch (eyes his *Q(K)*) and he saw and there! a people numerous [was] coming from [the] road behind him (at the descent and he went the watchman and he told to the king and he said men I saw [were] going down from direction of Horonaim *X*) from [the] side of the mountain.

35 Giô-na-đáp thưa với Đa-vít: “Các hoàng tử về đó! Đúng như tôi vừa nói.”

And he said Jonadab to the king there! [the] sons of the king they have come according to [the] word of servant your so it has happened.

36 Vừa lúc ấy các hoàng tử chạy vào, khóc lóc. Vua và quần thần cũng khóc.

And it was - when finished he to speak and there! [the] sons of the king they came and they lifted up voice their and they wept and also the king and all servants his they wept a weeping a great very.

37 Đa-vít ngày ngày khóc thương con mình là Am-nôn. Còn Áp-sa-lôm chạy đến Ghê-sua, ở với vua Thanh-mai, con A-mi-hút.

And Absalom he fled and he went to Talmai [the] son of (Ammihud *Q(K)*) [the] king of Geshur and he mourned on son his all the days.

38 Áp-sa-lôm ở lại Ghê-sua ba năm.

And Absalom he fled and he went Geshur and he was there three years.

39 Lúc ấy, Vua Đa-vít bắt đầu nguôi ngoai việc Am-nôn mất, ông chạnh nhớ đến Áp-sa-lôm.

And it [fem] completed David the king to go out against Absalom for he was comforted on Amnon that he had died.
