And he mustered David the people which [was] with him and he appointed over them commanders of thousands and commanders of hundreds.
2 Dafidi sì fi ìdámẹ́ta àwọn ènìyàn náà lé Joabu lọ́wọ́, ó sì rán wọn lọ, àti ìdámẹ́ta lé Abiṣai ọmọ Seruiah àbúrò Joabu lọ́wọ́ àti ìdámẹ́ta lè Ittai ará Gitti lọ́wọ́, ọba sì wí fún àwọn ènìyàn náà pé, “Nítòótọ́ èmi tìkára mi yóò sì bá yín lọ pẹ̀lú.”
And he sent out David the people the third [was] in [the] hand of Joab and the third [was] in [the] hand of Abishai [the] son of Zeruiah [the] brother of Joab and the third [was] in [the] hand of Ittai the Gittite. And he said the king to the people certainly I will go out also I with you.
3 Àwọn ènìyàn náà sì wí pé, “Ìwọ kì yóò bá wa lọ, nítorí pé bí àwa bá sá, wọn kì yóò náání wa, tàbí bí ó tilẹ̀ ṣe pé ìdajì wa kú, wọn kì yóò náání wa, nítorí pé ìwọ nìkan tó ẹgbẹ̀rún mẹ́wàá wa. Nítorí náà, ó sì dára kí ìwọ máa ràn wá lọ́wọ́ láti ìlú wá.”
And it said the people not you must go out for if certainly [if] we will flee not they will set to us heart and if they will die half of us not they will set to us heart for now like us ten thousand and therefore [is] good that you will be us from [the] city (to help. *Q(K)*)
4 Ọba sì wí fún wọn pé, “Èyí tí ó bá tọ́ lójú yin ni èmi ó ṣe.” Ọba sì dúró ní apá kan ẹnu odi, gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn náà sì jáde ní ọ̀rọ̀ọ̀rún àti ní ẹgbẹẹgbẹ̀rún.
And he said to them the king [that] which it will be good in view your I will do and he stood the king to [the] side of the gate and all the people they went out to hundreds and to thousands.
5 Ọba sì pàṣẹ fún Joabu àti Abiṣai àti Ittai pé, “Ẹ tọ́jú ọ̀dọ́mọkùnrin náà Absalomu fún mi.” Gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn náà sì gbọ́ nígbà tí ọba pàṣẹ fún gbogbo àwọn balógun nítorí Absalomu.
And he commanded the king Joab and Abishai and Ittai saying to gentleness for me to the young man to Absalom and all the people they heard when commanded the king all the commanders on [the] matter of Absalom.
6 Àwọn ènìyàn náà sì jáde láti pàdé Israẹli ní pápá; ní igbó Efraimu ni wọ́n gbé pàdé ìjà náà.
And it went out the people the field to meet Israel and it was the battle in [the] forest of Ephraim.
7 Níbẹ̀ ni a gbé pa àwọn ènìyàn Israẹli níwájú àwọn ìránṣẹ́ Dafidi, ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ ènìyàn ni ó ṣubú lọ́jọ́ náà, àní ogún ẹgbẹ̀rún ènìyàn.
And they were defeated there [the] people of Israel before [the] servants of David and it was there the slaughter great on the day that twenty thousand.
8 Ogun náà sì fọ́n káàkiri lórí gbogbo ilẹ̀ náà, igbó náà sì pa ọ̀pọ̀ ènìyàn ju èyí tí idà pa lọ lọ́jọ́ náà.
And it was there the battle (scattered *Q(K)*) over [the] face of all the land and it increased the forest to consume among the people more than [those] whom it consumed the sword on the day that.
9 Absalomu sì pàdé àwọn ìránṣẹ́ Dafidi. Absalomu sì gun orí ìbáaka kan, ìbáaka náà sì gba abẹ́ ẹ̀ka ńlá igi óákù kan tí ó tóbi lọ, orí rẹ̀ sì kọ́ igi óákù náà òun sì rọ̀ sókè ní agbede-méjì ọ̀run àti ilẹ̀; ìbáaka náà tí ó wà lábẹ́ rẹ̀ sì lọ kúrò.
And he was met Absalom before [the] servants of David and Absalom [was] riding on the mule and it went the mule under [the] branche[s] of the oak great and it was firm head his in the oak and he was put between the heavens and between the earth and the mule which [was] under him it passed on.
10 Ọkùnrin kan sì rí i, ó sì wí fún Joabu pé, “Wò ó, èmi rí Absalomu so rọ̀ láàrín igi óákù kan.”
And he saw a man one and he told to Joab and he said there! I saw Absalom hung up in the oak.
11 Joabu sì wí fún ọkùnrin náà tí ó sọ fún un pé, “Sá wò ó, ìwọ rí i, èéha ti ṣe tí ìwọ kò fi lù ú bolẹ̀ níbẹ̀? Èmi ìbá sì fún ọ ní ṣékélì fàdákà mẹ́wàá, àti àmùrè kan.”
And he said Joab to the man who had told to him and there! you saw and why? not did you strike down him there [the] ground towards and on me to give to you ten silver and a belt one.
12 Ọkùnrin náà sì wí fún Joabu pé, “Bí èmi tilẹ̀ gba ẹgbẹ̀rún ṣékélì fàdákà sí ọwọ́ mí, èmi kì yóò fi ọwọ́ mi kan ọmọ ọba, nítorí pé àwa gbọ́ nígbà tí ọba kìlọ̀ fún ìwọ àti Abiṣai, àti Ittai, pé, ‘Ẹ kíyèsi i, kí ẹnikẹ́ni má ṣe fi ọwọ́ kan ọ̀dọ́mọkùnrin náà Absalomu.’
And he said the man to Joab (and if *Q(k)*) I [were] weighing on hands my a thousand silver not I will stretch out hand my against [the] son of the king for in ears our he commanded the king you and Abishai and Ittai saying protect whoever the young man Absalom.
13 Bí ó bá ṣe bẹ́ẹ̀ èmi ìbá ṣe sí ara mi, nítorí pé kò sí ọ̀ràn kan tí ó pamọ́ fún ọba, ìwọ tìkára rẹ̀ ìbá sì kọjú ìjà sí mi pẹ̀lú.”
Or I had done (on life my *Q(K)*) falsehood and any thing not it is hidden from the king and you you will stand from in front.
14 Joabu sì wí pé, “Èmi kì yóò dúró bẹ́ẹ̀ níwájú rẹ.” Ó sì mú ọ̀kọ̀ mẹ́ta lọ́wọ́ rẹ̀, ó sì fi wọ́n gún Absalomu ní ọkàn, nígbà tí ó sì wà láààyè ní agbede-méjì igi óákù náà.
And he said Joab not thus I will wait before you and he took three spears in hand his and he thrust them in [the] heart of Absalom still he [was] alive in [the] heart of the oak.
15 Àwọn ọ̀dọ́mọdékùnrin mẹ́wàá tí ó máa ń ru ìhámọ́ra Joabu sì yí Absalomu ká, wọ́n sì kọlù ú, wọ́n sì pa á.
And they surrounded [him] ten young men [the] bearers of [the] armor of Joab and they struck Absalom and they killed him.
16 Joabu sì fun ìpè, àwọn ènìyàn náà sì yípadà láti máa lépa Israẹli, nítorí Joabu ti pe àwọn ènìyàn náà padà.
And he gave a blast Joab on the trumpet and it turned back the people from pursuing after Israel for he restrained Joab the people.
17 Wọ́n sì gbé Absalomu, wọ́n sì sọ ọ́ sínú ihò ńlá kan ní igbó náà, wọ́n sì kó òkúta púpọ̀ jọ sí i lórí, gbogbo Israẹli sì sá, olúkúlùkù sí inú àgọ́ rẹ̀.
And they took Absalom and they threw him in the forest into the pit great and they set up over him a heap of stones great very and all Israel they fled each (to tents his. *Q(K)*)
18 Absalomu ní ìgbà ayé rẹ̀, sì mọ ọ̀wọ́n kan fún ara rẹ̀, tí ń bẹ ní àfonífojì Ọba: nítorí tí ó wí pé, “Èmi kò ní ọmọkùnrin tí yóò pa orúkọ mi mọ́ ní ìrántí,” òun sì pe ọ̀wọ́n náà nípa orúkọ rẹ̀, a sì ń pè é títí di òní, ní ọ̀wọ́n Absalomu.
And Absalom he had taken and he had set up for himself (in life his *Q(K)*) a pillar which [is] in [the] valley of the king for he said not [belongs] to me a son in order to cause to be remembered name my and he called the pillar on own name his and it has been called to it [the] monument of Absalom until the day this.
19 Ahimasi ọmọ Sadoku sì wí pé, “Jẹ́ kí èmi ó súré nísinsin yìí, kí èmi sì mú ìròyìn tọ ọba lọ, bí Olúwa ti gbẹ̀san rẹ̀ lára àwọn ọ̀tá rẹ̀.”
And Ahimaaz [the] son of Zadok he said let me run please and let me bear [the] news to the king that he has vindicated him Yahweh from [the] hand of enemies his.
20 Joabu sì wí fún un pé, “Ìwọ kì yóò mù ìròyìn lọ lónìí, ṣùgbọ́n ìwọ ó mú lọ ní ọjọ́ mìíràn, ṣùgbọ́n lónìí yìí ìwọ kì yóò mú ìròyìn kan lọ, nítorí tí ọmọ ọba ṣe aláìsí.”
And he said to him Joab not [are] a man of news you day this and you will bear news on a day another and day this not you will bear [the] news for (since *Q(K)*) [the] son of the king he has died.
21 Joabu sì wí fún Kuṣi pé, “Lọ, kí ìwọ ro ohun tí ìwọ rí fún ọba.” Kuṣi sì wólẹ̀ fún Joabu ó sì sáré.
And he said Joab to the Cushite go tell to the king [that] which you have seen and he bowed down [the] Cushite to Joab and he ran.
22 Ahimasi ọmọ Sadoku sì tún wí fún Joabu pé, “Jọ̀wọ́, bí ó ti wù kí ó rí, èmi ó sáré tọ Kuṣi lẹ́yìn.” Joabu sì bi í pé, “Nítorí kín ni ìwọ ó ṣe sáré, ọmọ mi, ìwọ kò ri pé kò sí ìròyìn rere kan tí ìwọ ó mú lọ.”
And he repeated again Ahimaaz [the] son of Zadok and he said to Joab and may it be whatever let me run please also I after the Cushite and he said Joab why? this [are] you running O son my and [will belong] to you not good news finding.
23 Ó sì wí pé, “Bí ó ti wù kí ó rí, èmi ó sáré.” Ó sì wí fún un pé, “Sáré!” Ahimasi sì sáré ní ọ̀nà pẹ̀tẹ́lẹ̀, ó sì sáré kọjá Kuṣi.
And may it be whatever I will run and he said to him run and he ran Ahimaaz [the] way of the plain and he passed by the Cushite.
24 Dafidi sì jókòó lẹ́nu odi láàrín ìlẹ̀kùn méjì, alóre sì gòkè òrùlé bodè lórí odi, ó sì gbé ojú rẹ̀ sókè, ó sì wò, wò ó, ọkùnrin kan ń sáré òun nìkan.
And David [was] sitting between [the] two the gates and he went the watchman to [the] roof of the gate to the wall and he lifted up eyes his and he saw and there! a man [was] running to only him.
25 Alóre náà sì kígbe, ó sì wí fún ọba. Ọba sì wí pé, “Bí ó bá ṣe òun nìkan ni, ìròyìn rere ń bẹ lẹ́nu rẹ̀.” Òun sì ń súnmọ́ tòsí.
And he called out the watchman and he told to the king and he said the king if to only him news [is] in mouth his and he came continuously and approaching.

And he saw the watchman a man another running and he called out the watchman to the gatekeeper and he said there! a man [is] running to only him and he said the king also this one [is] bearing news.

And he said the watchman I [am] seeing [the] running of the first [one] like [the] running of Ahimaaz [the] son of Zadok and he said the king [is] a man good this and with news good he is coming.
28 Ahimasi sì dé, ó sì wí fún ọba pé, “Àlàáfíà!” Ó sì wólẹ̀ fún ọba, ó dojúbolẹ̀ ó sì wí pé, “Alábùkún fún ni Olúwa Ọlọ́run rẹ, ẹni tí ó fi àwọn ọkùnrin tí ó gbé ọwọ́ wọn sókè sí olúwa mi ọba lé ọ lọ́wọ́.”
And he called out Ahimaaz and he said to the king peace and he bowed down to the king to face his [the] ground towards. And he said blessed [be] Yahweh God your who he has delivered up the men who they lifted up hand their against lord my the king.
29 Ọba sì béèrè pé, “Àlàáfíà ha wà fún Absalomu, ọmọdékùnrin náà bí?” Ahimasi sì dáhùn pé, “Nígbà tí Joabu rán ìránṣẹ́ ọba, àti èmi ìránṣẹ́ rẹ̀, mo rí ọ̀pọ̀ ènìyàn, ṣùgbọ́n èmi kò mọ ìdí rẹ̀.”
And he said the king [does] peace? [belong] to the young man to Absalom and he said Ahimaaz I saw the multitude great to send [the] servant of the king Joab and servant your and not I know whatever.
30 Ọba sì wí fún un pé, “Yípadà kí o sì dúró níhìn-ín.” Òun sì yípadà, ó sì dúró jẹ́ẹ́.
And he said the king go around stand thus and he went around and he stood.
31 Sì wò ó, Kuṣi sì wí pé, “Ìyìnrere fún olúwa mi ọba, nítorí tí Olúwa ti gbẹ̀san rẹ lónìí lára gbogbo àwọn tí ó dìde sí ọ.”
And here! the Cushite [was] coming and he said the Cushite let him receive [the] news lord my the king for he has vindicated you Yahweh this day from [the] hand of all those [who] rose up on you.
32 Ọba sì bi Kuṣi pé, “Àlàáfíà kọ́ Absalomu ọ̀dọ́mọdékùnrin náà wá bí?” Kuṣi sì dáhùn pe, “Kí àwọn ọ̀tá olúwa mi ọba, àti gbogbo àwọn tí ó dìde sí ọ ní ibi, rí bí ọ̀dọ́mọdékùnrin náà.”
And he said the king to the Cushite ¿ [does] peace [belong] to the young man to Absalom and he said the Cushite let them be like the young man [the] enemies of lord my the king and all [those] who they have risen up on you for harm.
33 Ọba sì kẹ́dùn púpọ̀ ó sì gòkè lọ, sí yàrá tí ó wà lórí òkè ibodè, ó sì sọkún; báyìí ni ó sì ń wí bí ó ti ń lọ, “Ọmọ mi Absalomu! Ọmọ mi, ọmọ mí Absalomu! Á à! Ìbá ṣe pé èmi ni ó kú ní ipò rẹ̀! Absalomu ọmọ mi, ọmọ mi!”
