< 2 Samuel 16 >
1 Nígbà tí Dafidi sì fi díẹ̀ kọjá orí òkè náà, sì wò ó, Ṣiba ìránṣẹ́ Mefiboṣeti sì ń bọ̀ wá pàdé rẹ̀, òun àti kẹ́tẹ́kẹ́tẹ́ méjì tí a ti dì ní gàárì, àti igba ìṣù àkàrà lórí wọn, àti ọgọ́rùn-ún síírí àjàrà gbígbẹ, àti ọgọ́rùn-ún èso ẹ̀rún, àti ìgò ọtí wáìnì kan.
And when David was a little past the summit, behold, Ziba, Mephibosheth's servant, met him, with a couple of asses saddled, and upon them two hundred [loaves] of bread, and a hundred raisin-cakes, and a hundred cakes of summer fruits, and a flask of wine.
2 Ọba sì wí fún Ṣiba pé, “Kí ni wọ̀nyí?” Ṣiba sì wí pé, “Kẹ́tẹ́kẹ́tẹ́ wọ̀nyí ni fún àwọn ará ilé ọba láti máa gùn àti àkàrà yìí, àti èso ẹ̀rún yìí ni fún àwọn ọ̀dọ́mọdékùnrin láti jẹ; àti ọtí wáìnì yìí ni fún àwọn aláàárẹ̀ ní ijù láti mu.”
And the king said to Ziba, What meanest thou by these? And Ziba said, The asses are for the king's household to ride on; and the bread and summer fruits for the young men to eat; and the wine, that such as are faint in the wilderness may drink.
3 Ọba sì wí pé, “Ọmọ olúwa rẹ dà?” Ṣiba sì wí fún ọba pé, “Wò ó, ó jókòó ní Jerusalẹmu; nítorí tí ó wí pé, ‘Lónìí ni ìdílé Israẹli yóò mú ìjọba baba mi padà wá fún mi.’”
And the king said, And where is thy master's son? And Ziba said to the king, Behold, he abides at Jerusalem; for he said, To-day shall the house of Israel restore me the kingdom of my father.
4 Ọba sì wí fún Ṣiba pé, “Wò ó, gbogbo nǹkan tí í ṣe ti Mefiboṣeti jẹ́ tìrẹ.” Ṣiba sì wí pé, “Mo túúbá, jẹ́ kí n rí oore-ọ̀fẹ́ lójú rẹ, olúwa mi ọba.”
And the king said to Ziba, Behold, thine are all that pertained to Mephibosheth. And Ziba said, I humbly bow myself: may I find favour in thy sight, my lord, O king.
5 Dafidi ọba sì dé Bahurimu, sì wò ó, ọkùnrin kan ti ibẹ̀ jáde wá, láti ìdílé Saulu wá, orúkọ rẹ̀ sì ń jẹ́ Ṣimei, ọmọ Gera, ó sì ń bú èébú bí o tí ń bọ̀.
And when king David came to Bahurim, behold, there came out from thence a man of the family of the house of Saul, whose name was Shimei, the son of Gera: he came forth, and cursed,
6 Ó sì sọ òkúta sí Dafidi, àti sí gbogbo ìránṣẹ́ Dafidi ọba, àti sí gbogbo ènìyàn, gbogbo àwọn alágbára ọkùnrin sì wà lọ́wọ́ ọ̀tún rẹ̀ àti lọ́wọ́ òsì rẹ̀.
and cast stones at David, and at all the servants of king David; and all the people and all the mighty men were on his right hand and on his left.
7 Báyìí ni Ṣimei sì wí nígbà tí ó ń yọ èébú, “Jáde, ìwọ ọkùnrin ẹ̀jẹ̀, ìwọ ọkùnrin Beliali.
And thus said Shimei as he cursed: Away, away, thou man of blood and man of Belial!
8 Olúwa mú gbogbo ẹ̀jẹ̀ ìdílé Saulu padà wá sí orí rẹ, ní ipò ẹni tí ìwọ jẹ ọba; Olúwa ti fi ìjọba náà lé Absalomu ọmọ rẹ lọ́wọ́: sì wò ó, ìwà búburú rẹ ni ó mú èyí wá bá ọ, nítorí pé ọkùnrin ẹ̀jẹ̀ ni ìwọ.”
Jehovah has returned upon thee all the blood of the house of Saul, in whose stead thou hast reigned; and Jehovah has given the kingdom into the hand of Absalom thy son; and behold, thou art [taken] in thine own evil, for thou art a man of blood.
9 Abiṣai ọmọ Seruiah sì wí fún ọba pé, “Èéṣe tí òkú ajá yìí fi ń bú olúwa mi ọba? Jẹ́ kí èmi kọjá, èmi bẹ̀ ọ́, kí èmi sì bẹ́ ẹ́ lórí.”
And Abishai the son of Zeruiah said to the king, Why should this dead dog curse my lord the king? let me go over, I pray thee, and take off his head.
10 Ọba sì wí pé, “Kín ni èmi ní ṣe pẹ̀lú yín, ẹ̀yin ọmọ Seruiah? Bí ó bá ń bú èébú, nítorí tí Olúwa ti wí fún un pé, ‘Bú Dafidi!’ Ta ni yóò sì wí pé, ‘Kín ni ìdí tí o fi ṣe bẹ́ẹ̀.’”
And the king said, What have I to do with you, ye sons of Zeruiah? so let him curse, for Jehovah has said to him, Curse David! Who shall then say, Why dost thou so?
11 Dafidi sì wí fún Abiṣai, àti fún gbogbo àwọn ìránṣẹ́ rẹ̀ pé, “Wò ó, ọmọ mi tí ó ti inú mi wá, ń wá mi kiri, ǹjẹ́ mélòó mélòó ni ará Benjamini yìí yóò sì ṣe? Fi í sílẹ̀, sì jẹ́ kí o máa yan èébú; nítorí pé Olúwa ni ó sọ fún un.
And David said to Abishai, and to all his servants, Behold, my son, who came forth of my bowels, seeks my life: how much more now a Benjaminite? let him alone and let him curse; for Jehovah has bidden him.
12 Bóyá Ọlọ́run yóò wo ìpọ́njú mi, Olúwa yóò sì fi ìre san án fún mi ní ipò èébú rẹ̀ lónìí.”
It may be that Jehovah will look on mine affliction, and that Jehovah will requite me good for my being cursed this day.
13 Dafidi àti àwọn ọmọkùnrin rẹ̀ sì ń lọ ní ọ̀nà, Ṣimei sì ń rìn òdìkejì òkè tí ó wà lẹ́gbẹ̀ẹ́ rẹ̀, ó sì ń yan èébú bí ó ti ń lọ, ó sì ń sọ ọ́ lókùúta, ó sì ń fọ́n erùpẹ̀.
And David and his men went by the way; and Shimei went along on the hill's side over against him, and cursed as he went, and threw stones at him, and cast dust.
14 Ọba, àti gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn tí ó ń bẹ lọ́dọ̀ rẹ̀ sì dé Jordani, ó sì rẹ̀ wọ́n, wọ́n sì sinmi níbẹ̀.
And the king, and all the people that were with him, came weary, and refreshed themselves there.
15 Absalomu àti gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn, àwọn ọkùnrin Israẹli sì wá sí Jerusalẹmu, Ahitofeli sì wà pẹ̀lú rẹ̀.
Now Absalom, and all the people, the men of Israel, came to Jerusalem, and Ahithophel with him.
16 Ó sì ṣe, nígbà tí Huṣai ará Arki, ọ̀rẹ́ Dafidi tọ Absalomu wá, Huṣai sì wí fún Absalomu pé, “Kí ọba ó pẹ́! Kí ọba ó pẹ́.”
And it came to pass, when Hushai the Archite, David's friend, came to Absalom, that Hushai said to Absalom, Long live the king! Long live the king!
17 Absalomu sì wí fún Huṣai pé, “Oore rẹ sí ọ̀rẹ́ rẹ ni èyí? Èéṣe tí ìwọ kò bá ọ̀rẹ́ rẹ lọ?”
And Absalom said to Hushai, Is this thy kindness to thy friend? why didst thou not go with thy friend?
18 Huṣai sì wí fún Absalomu pé, “Bẹ́ẹ̀ kọ́ nítorí ẹni tí Olúwa, àti gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn yìí, àti gbogbo àwọn ọkùnrin Israẹli bá yàn, tirẹ̀ lèmi ó jẹ́, òun lèmi ó sì bá jókòó.
And Hushai said to Absalom, No; but whom Jehovah, and this people, and all the men of Israel choose, his will I be, and with him will I abide.
19 Àti pé, ta ni èmi ó sì sìn? Kò ha yẹ kí èmi ó máa sìn níwájú ọmọ rẹ̀? Gẹ́gẹ́ bí èmi ti ń sìn rí níwájú baba rẹ, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni èmi ó sìn níwájú rẹ.”
And again, whom should I serve? should it not be in the presence of his son? as I have served in thy father's presence, so will I be in thy presence.
20 Absalomu sì wí fún Ahitofeli pé, “Ẹ bá ará yín gbìmọ̀ ohun tí àwa ó ṣe.”
And Absalom said to Ahithophel, Give counsel among you what we shall do.
21 Ahitofeli sì wí fún Absalomu pé, “Wọlé tọ àwọn obìnrin baba rẹ lọ, tí ó fi sílẹ̀ láti máa ṣọ́ ilé, gbogbo Israẹli yóò sì gbọ́ pé, ìwọ di ẹni ìríra sí baba rẹ, ọwọ́ gbogbo àwọn tí ó wà lọ́dọ̀ rẹ yóò sì le.”
And Ahithophel said to Absalom, Go in to thy father's concubines, whom he has left to keep the house; and all Israel shall hear that thou art become odious with thy father; and the hands of all that are with thee shall be strong.
22 Wọ́n sì tẹ́ àgọ́ kan fún Absalomu ní òrùlé; Absalomu sì wọlé tọ àwọn obìnrin baba rẹ̀ lójú gbogbo Israẹli.
So they spread a tent for Absalom upon the roof; and Absalom went in to his father's concubines in the sight of all Israel.
23 Ìmọ̀ Ahitofeli tí ó máa ń gbà ni ìgbà náà, ó dàbí ẹni pé ènìyàn béèrè nǹkan lọ́wọ́ Ọlọ́run, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni gbogbo ìmọ̀ Ahitofeli fún Dafidi àti fún Absalomu sì rí.
And the counsel of Ahithophel, which he counselled in those days, was as if a man had inquired of the word of God: so was all the counsel of Ahithophel both with David and with Absalom.
