2 Samuel 17
1 Ahitofeli sì wí fún Absalomu pé, “Èmi ó yan ẹgbàá mẹ́fà ọkùnrin èmi ó sì dìde, èmi ó sì lépa Dafidi lóru yìí.
Moreouer Ahithophel said to Absalom, Let me chuse out now twelue thousand men, and I will vp and follow after Dauid this night,
2 Èmi ó sì yọ sí i nígbà tí àárẹ̀ bá mú un tí ọwọ́ rẹ̀ sì ṣe aláìle, èmi ó sì dá a ní ìjì, gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn tí ó wà lọ́dọ̀ rẹ̀ yóò sì sá, èmi ó sì kọlu ọba nìkan ṣoṣo.
And I will come vpon him: for he is wearie, and weake handed: so I will feare him, and all the people that are with him, shall flee, and I will smite the King onely,
3 Èmi ó sì mú gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn padà sọ́dọ̀ rẹ bi ìgbà tí ìyàwó bá padà sí ọ̀dọ̀ ọkọ rẹ̀. Ọkàn ẹnìkan ṣoṣo tí ìwọ ń wá yìí ni ó túmọ̀ sí ìpadàbọ̀ gbogbo wọn; gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn yóò sì wà ní àlàáfíà.”
And I will bring againe all the people vnto thee, and when all shall returne, (the man whome thou seekest being slaine) all the people shalbe in peace.
4 Ọ̀rọ̀ náà sì tọ́ lójú Absalomu, àti lójú gbogbo àwọn àgbàgbà Israẹli.
And the saying pleased Absalom well, and all the Elders of Israel.
5 Absalomu sì wí pé, “Ǹjẹ́ pe Huṣai ará Arki, àwa ó sì gbọ́ èyí tí ó wà lẹ́nu rẹ̀ pẹ̀lú.”
Then said Absalom, Call now Hushai the Archite also, and let vs heare likewise what he sayth.
6 Huṣai sì dé ọ̀dọ̀ Absalomu, Absalomu sì wí fún un pé, “Báyìí ni Ahitofeli wí, kí àwa ṣe bí ọ̀rọ̀ rẹ bí? Bí ko bá sì tọ́ bẹ́ẹ̀, ìwọ wí.”
So when Hushai came to Absalom, Absalom spake vnto him, saying, Ahithophel hath spoken thus: shall we doe after his saying, or no? tell thou.
7 Huṣai sì wí fún Absalomu pé, “Ìmọ̀ tí Ahitofeli gbà yìí, kò dára nísinsin yìí.”
Hushai then answered vnto Absalom, The counsel that Ahithophel hath giuen, is not good at this time.
8 Huṣai sì wí pé, “Ìwọ mọ baba rẹ àti àwọn ọmọkùnrin rẹ̀ pé alágbára ni wọ́n, wọ́n sì wà ní kíkorò ọkàn bí àmọ̀tẹ́kùn tí a gbà ní ọmọ ni pápá, baba rẹ sì jẹ́ jagunjagun ọkùnrin kì yóò bá àwọn ènìyàn náà gbé pọ̀ lóru.
For, said Hushai, thou knowest thy father, and his men, that they be strong men, and are chafed in minde as a beare robbed of her whelps in the fielde: also thy father is a valiant warrier, and will not lodge with the people.
9 Kíyèsi i, ó ti fi ara rẹ̀ pamọ́ nísinsin yìí ni ihò kan, tàbí ní ibòmíràn: yóò sì ṣe, nígbà tí díẹ̀ nínú wọn bá kọ́ ṣubú, ẹnikẹ́ni tí ó bá gbọ́ yóò sì wí pé, ‘Ìparun sì ń bẹ́ nínú àwọn ènìyàn tí ń tọ Absalomu lẹ́yìn.’
Behold, he is hid now in some caue, or in some place: and though some of them be ouerthrowen at the first, yet the people shall heare, and say, The people that follow Absalom, be ouerthrowen.
10 Ẹni tí ó sì ṣe alágbára, tí ọkàn rẹ̀ sì dàbí ọkàn kìnnìún, yóò sì rẹ̀ ẹ́: nítorí gbogbo Israẹli ti mọ̀ pé alágbára ni baba rẹ, àti pé, àwọn tí ń bẹ lọ́dọ̀ rẹ jẹ́ alágbára.
Then he also that is valiant whose heart is as the heart of a lion, shall shrinke and faint: for all Israel knoweth, that thy father is valiant, and they which be with him, stout men.
11 “Nítorí náà èmi dámọ̀ràn pé, kí gbogbo Israẹli wọ́jọ pọ̀ sọ́dọ̀ rẹ, láti Dani títí dé Beerṣeba, gẹ́gẹ́ bí iyanrìn létí òkun fún ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀; àti pé, kí ìwọ tìkára rẹ̀ ó lọ sí ogun náà.
Therefore my counsell is, that all Israel be gathered vnto thee, from Dan euen to Beer-sheba as the sand of the sea in nomber, and that thou goe to battell in thine owne person.
12 Àwa ó sì yọ sí i níbikíbi tí àwa o gbé rí i, àwa ó sì yí i ká bí ìrì ti ń ṣẹ̀ sí ilẹ̀ àní, ọkàn kan kì yóò kù pẹ̀lú rẹ̀ nínú gbogbo àwọn ọmọkùnrin tí ó wà lọ́dọ̀ rẹ̀.
So shall we come vpon him in some place, where we shall finde him, and we will vpon him as the dewe falleth on the ground: and of all the men that are with him, wee will not leaue him one.
13 Bí o bá sì bọ́ sí ìlú kan, gbogbo Israẹli yóò mú okùn wá sí ìlú náà, àwa ó sì fà á lọ sí odò, títí a kì yóò fi rí òkúta kéékèèké kan níbẹ̀.”
Moreouer if he be gotten into a citie, then shall all the men of Israel bring ropes to that citie, and we will draw it into the riuer, vntill there be not one small stone founde there.
14 Absalomu àti gbogbo ọkùnrin Israẹli sì wí pé, “Ìmọ̀ Huṣai ará Arki sàn ju ìmọ̀ Ahitofeli lọ! Nítorí Olúwa fẹ́ láti yí ìmọ̀ rere ti Ahitofeli po.” Nítorí kí Olúwa lè mú ibi wá sórí Absalomu.
Then Absalom and all the men of Israel sayde, The counsel of Hushai the Archite is better, then the counsell of Ahithophel: for the Lord had determined to destroy the good counsell of Ahithophel, that the Lord might bring euill vpon Absalom.
15 Huṣai sì wí fún Sadoku àti fún Abiatari àwọn àlùfáà pé, “Báyìí ni Ahitofeli ti bá Absalomu àti àwọn àgbàgbà Israẹli dámọ̀ràn, báyìí lèmi sì bá a dámọ̀ràn.
Then said Hushai vnto Zadok and to Abiathar the Priests, Of this and that maner did Ahithophel and the Elders of Israel counsell Absalom: and thus and thus haue I counseled.
16 Nítorí náà yára ránṣẹ́ nísinsin yìí kí o sì sọ fún Dafidi pé, ‘Má ṣe dúró ní pẹ̀tẹ́lẹ̀ ijù náà lálẹ́ yìí, ṣùgbọ́n yára rékọjá kí a má bá a gbé ọba mì, àti gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn tí ó ń bẹ lọ́dọ̀ rẹ.’”
Now therefore sende quickely, and shewe Dauid, saying, Tarie not this night in the fieldes of the wildernesse, but rather get thee ouer, lest the King be deuoured and all the people that are with him.
17 Jonatani àti Ahimasi sì dúró ní En-Rogeli ọ̀dọ́mọdébìnrin kan sì lọ, ó sì sọ fún wọn, wọ́n sì lọ wọ́n sọ fún Dafidi ọba nítorí pé kí a má bá à rí wọn pé wọ́n wọ ìlú.
Now Ionathan and Ahimaaz abode by En-rogel: (for they might not be seene to come into the citie) and a maid went, and tolde them, and they went and shewed King Dauid.
18 Ṣùgbọ́n ọ̀dọ́mọdékùnrin kan rí wọn, ó sì wí fún Absalomu, ṣùgbọ́n àwọn méjèèjì sì yára lọ kúrò, wọ́n sì wá sí ilé ọkùnrin kan ní Bahurimu, ẹni tí ó ní kànga kan ní ọgbà rẹ̀, wọ́n sì sọ̀kalẹ̀ sí ibẹ̀.
Neuerthelesse a yong man sawe them, and tolde it to Absalom. therefore they both departed quickely, and came to a mans house in Bahurim, who had a well in his court, into the which they went downe.
19 Obìnrin rẹ̀ sì mú nǹkan ó fi bo kànga náà, ó sì sá àgbàdo sórí rẹ̀, a kò sì mọ̀.
And the wife tooke and spred a couering ouer the welles mouth, and spred ground corne thereon, that the thing should not be knowen.
20 Àwọn ìránṣẹ́ Absalomu sì tọ obìnrin náà wá sí ilé náà, wọ́n sì béèrè pé, “Níbo ni Ahimasi àti Jonatani gbé wà?” Obìnrin náà sì wí fún wọn pé, “Wọ́n ti gòkè rékọjá ìṣàn odò náà.” Wọ́n sì wá wọn kiri, wọn kò sì rí wọn, wọ́n sì yípadà sí Jerusalẹmu.
And when Absaloms seruants came to the wife into the house, they said, Where is Ahimaaz and Ionathan? And the woman answered them, They be gone ouer the brooke of water. And when they had sought them, and could not finde them, they returned to Ierusalem.
21 Ó sì ṣe lẹ́yìn ìgbà tí wọ́n ti lọ tán, àwọn ọkùnrin náà sì jáde kúrò nínú kànga, wọ́n sì lọ wọ́n sì rò fún Dafidi ọba. Wọ́n sọ fún Dafidi pé, “Dìde kí o sì gòkè odò kánkán, nítorí pé báyìí ni Ahitofeli gbìmọ̀ sí ọ.”
And assoone as they were departed, the other came out of the well, and went and tolde King Dauid, and sayde vnto him, Vp, and get you quickely ouer the water: for such counsell hath Ahithophel giuen against you.
22 Dafidi sì dìde, àti gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn tí ń bẹ lọ́dọ̀ rẹ̀, wọ́n sì gòkè odò Jordani: kí ilẹ̀ tó mọ́, ènìyàn kò kù tí kò gòkè odò Jordani.
Then Dauid arose, and all the people that were with him, and they went ouer Iorden vntil the dawning of the day, so that there lacked not one of them, that was not come ouer Iorden.
23 Nígbà tí Ahitofeli sì rí i pé wọn kò fi ìmọ̀ tirẹ̀ ṣe, ó sì di kẹ́tẹ́kẹ́tẹ́ rẹ̀ ni gàárì, ó sì dìde, ó lọ ilé rẹ̀, ó sì palẹ̀ ilé rẹ̀ mọ̀, ó sì so, ó sì kú, a sì sin ín sí ibojì baba rẹ̀. Absalomu gbógun ti Dafidi.
Nowe when Ahithophel sawe that his counsell was not followed, he sadled his asse, and arose, and he went home vnto his citie, and put his houshold in order, and hanged him selfe, and dyed, and was buryed in his fathers graue.
24 Dafidi sì wá sí Mahanaimu, Absalomu sì gòkè odò Jordani, òun àti gbogbo àwọn ọkùnrin Israẹli pẹ̀lú rẹ̀.
Then Dauid came to Mahanaim. And Absalom passed ouer Iorden, he, and all the men of Israel with him.
25 Absalomu sì fi Amasa ṣe olórí ogun ní ipò Joabu: Amasa ẹni tí í ṣe ọmọ ẹnìkan, orúkọ ẹni tí a ń pè ní Itira, ará Israẹli, tí ó wọlé tọ Abigaili ọmọbìnrin Nahaṣi, arábìnrin Seruiah, ìyá Joabu.
And Absalom made Amasa captaine of the hoste in the stead of Ioab: which Amasa was a mans sonne named Ithra an Israelite, that went in to Abigail the daughter of Nahash, sister to Zeruiah Ioabs mother.
26 Israẹli àti Absalomu sì dó ní ilẹ̀ Gileadi.
So Israel and Absalom pitched in the land of Gilead.
27 Nígbà tí Dafidi sì wá sí Mahanaimu, Ṣobi ọmọ Nahaṣi ti Rabba tí àwọn ọmọ Ammoni, àti Makiri ọmọ Ammieli ti Lo-Debari, àti Barsillai ará Gileadi ti Rogelimu.
And when Dauid was come to Mahanaim, Shobi the sonne of Nahash out of Rabbah of the children of Ammon, and Machir the sonne of Ammiel out of Lo-debar, and Barzelai the Gileadite out of Rogel
28 Mú àwọn àkéte, àti àwọn àwo, àti ìkòkò amọ̀, àti alikama, àti ọkà barle, àti ìyẹ̀fun, àti àgbàdo díndín, àti ẹ̀wà, àti erèé, àti lẹntili.
Brought beds, and basens, and earthen vessels, and wheat, and barley, and floure, and parched corne, and beanes, and lentiles, and parched corne.
29 Àti oyin, àti òrí-àmọ́, àti àgùntàn, àti wàràǹkàṣì màlúù, wá fún Dafidi àti fún àwọn ènìyàn tí ń bẹ lọ́dọ̀ rẹ̀, láti jẹ: nítorí tí wọ́n wí pé, “Ebi ń pa àwọn ènìyàn, ó sì rẹ̀ wọ́n, òǹgbẹ sì ń gbẹ wọ́n ní aginjù.”
And they brought hony, and butter, and sheepe, and cheese of kine for Dauid and for the people that were with him, to eate: for they said, The people is hungry, and wearie, and thirstie in the wildernesse.
