2 Samuel 2
1 Lẹ́yìn àkókò yìí, Dafidi wádìí lọ́wọ́ Olúwa. Ó sì béèrè pé, “Ṣé èmi lè gòkè lọ sí ọ̀kan lára àwọn ìlú Juda?” Olúwa sì wí pé, “Gòkè lọ.” Dafidi sì béèrè pé, “Ní ibo ni kí èmi kí ó lọ?” Olúwa sì dá a lóhùn pé, “Sí Hebroni.”
It happened after this, that David inquired of the LORD, saying, "Shall I go up into any of the cities of Judah?" The LORD said to him, "Go up." David said, "Where shall I go up?" He said, "To Hebron."
2 Nígbà náà ni Dafidi gòkè lọ síbẹ̀ pẹ̀lú ìyàwó rẹ̀ méjì Ahinoamu ará Jesreeli, àti Abigaili obìnrin opó Nabali ti Karmeli.
So David went up there, and his two wives also, Ahinoam the Jezreelite and Abigail the wife of Nabal the Carmelite,
3 Dafidi sì mú àwọn ọkùnrin tí ó wà pẹ̀lú rẹ̀, olúkúlùkù pẹ̀lú ìdílé rẹ̀, wọ́n sì ń gbé ní Hebroni àti ìlú rẹ̀ mìíràn.
and the men who were with him, everyone with his household. And they lived in Hebron.
4 Nígbà náà àwọn ọkùnrin ará Juda wá sí Hebroni, níbẹ̀ ni wọ́n ti fi àmì òróró yan Dafidi gẹ́gẹ́ bí ọba lórí ilé Juda. Nígbà tí wọ́n sọ fún Dafidi pé, àwọn ọkùnrin ti Jabesi Gileadi ni ó sin òkú Saulu,
Then the men of Judah came, and they anointed David king over the house of Judah. When David was told that the men of Jabesh Gilead buried Saul,
5 Dafidi rán oníṣẹ́ sí àwọn ọkùnrin Jabesi Gileadi láti sọ fún wọn pé, “Olúwa bùkún un yín fún fífi inú rere yín hàn sí Saulu ọ̀gá yín nípa sí sin ín.
then he sent messengers to the lords of Jabesh Gilead, and said to them, "May you be blessed by the LORD, since you showed loyalty towards your lord, Saul, and have buried him.
6 Kí Olúwa kí ó fi inú rere àti òtítọ́ fún un yín, èmi náà yóò sì san oore yìí fún un yín, nítorí tí ẹ̀yin ti ṣe èyí.
Now may the LORD show loving kindness and truth to you. I also will reward you for this kindness, because you have done this thing.
7 Ǹjẹ́ nísinsin yìí, ẹ mú ara yín le, kí ẹ sì ní ìgboyà, nítorí Saulu ọba yín ti kú, ilé Juda sì ti fi àmì òróró yàn mí ní ọba lórí wọn.”
Now therefore let your hands be strong, and be valiant; for Saul your lord is dead, and also the house of Judah has anointed me king over them."
8 Lákòókò yìí, Abneri ọmọ Neri olórí ogun Saulu ti mú Iṣboṣeti ọmọ Saulu, ó sì mú un kọjá sí Mahanaimu.
Now Abner the son of Ner, captain of Saul's army, had taken Ishbaal the son of Saul, and brought him over to Mahanaim;
9 Ó sì fi jẹ ọba lórí Gileadi Aṣuri àti Jesreeli àti lórí Efraimu àti lórí Benjamini àti lórí gbogbo Israẹli.
and he made him king over Gilead, and over the Geshurites, and over Jezreel, and over Ephraim, and over Benjamin, and over all Israel.
10 Iṣboṣeti ọmọ Saulu sì jẹ́ ọmọ ogójì ọdún nígbà tí ó jẹ ọba lórí Israẹli, ó sì jẹ ọba fún ọdún méjì. Ilé Juda sì ń tọ Dafidi lẹ́yìn.
Ishbaal, Saul's son, was forty years old when he began to reign over Israel, and he reigned two years. But the house of Judah followed David.
11 Gbogbo àkókò tí Dafidi fi jẹ ọba ní Hebroni lórí ilé Juda sì jẹ́ ọdún méje àti oṣù mẹ́fà.
And the time that David ruled in Hebron over the house of Judah was seven years and six months.
12 Abneri ọmọ Neri pẹ̀lú àwọn ọkùnrin ti Iṣboṣeti ọmọkùnrin Saulu kúrò ní Mahanaimu, wọ́n sì lọ sí Gibeoni.
Abner the son of Ner, and the servants of Ishbaal the son of Saul, went out from Mahanaim to Gibeon.
13 Joabu ọmọ Seruiah pẹ̀lú àwọn ọkùnrin Dafidi jáde lọ láti lọ bá wọn ní adágún Gibeoni. Ẹgbẹ́ kan sì jókòó ní apá kan adágún, àti ẹgbẹ́ kejì ní apá kejì adágún.
Joab the son of Zeruiah, and the servants of David, went out, and met them by the pool of Gibeon; and they sat down, the one on the one side of the pool, and the other on the other side of the pool.
14 Nígbà náà, Abneri sọ fún Joabu pé, “Jẹ́ kí díẹ̀ nínú àwọn ọ̀dọ́mọkùnrin yìí ó dìde láti bá ara wọn jà níwájú wa.” Joabu sì dáhùn pé, “Ó dára, jẹ́ kí wọ́n ṣe é.”
Abner said to Joab, "Let the young men now arise and compete before us." Joab said, "Let them arise."
15 Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni wọ́n dìde sókè, a sì kà wọ́n sí ọkùnrin méjìlá fún Benjamini àti Iṣboṣeti ọmọ Saulu àti méjìlá fún Dafidi.
Then they arose and went over by number: twelve of the sons of Benjamin of Ishbaal the son of Saul, and twelve of the servants of David.
16 Nígbà náà olúkúlùkù ọkùnrin gbá ẹnìkejì rẹ̀ mú ní orí, ó sì fi idà gún ẹnìkejì rẹ̀ lẹ́gbẹ̀ẹ́, wọ́n sì ṣubú lulẹ̀ papọ̀. Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ibẹ̀ ni Gibeoni ti à ń pè ni Helikatihu Hasurimu.
They each caught his opponent by the head, and thrust his sword in his fellow's side; so they fell down together. Therefore that place was called Field of Blades, which is in Gibeon.
17 Ogun náà ní ọjọ́ náà gbóná. Àwọn ọmọkùnrin Dafidi sì ṣẹ́gun Abneri pẹ̀lú àwọn ọkùnrin Israẹli.
The battle was very severe that day, and Abner and the men of Israel were defeated before the servants of David.
18 Àwọn ọmọkùnrin Seruiah mẹ́tẹ̀ẹ̀ta ni ó wà níbẹ̀: Joabu, Abiṣai àti Asaheli. Nísinsin yìí ẹsẹ̀ Asaheli sì fẹ́rẹ̀ bí ẹsẹ̀ èsúró tí ó wà ní pápá.
The three sons of Zeruiah were there, Joab, and Abishai, and Asahel. And Asahel was as quick on his feet as a wild gazelle.
19 Asaheli sì ń lépa Abneri, bí òun tí ń lọ kò sì yípadà sí ọ̀tún tàbí sí òsì láti máa tọ́ Abneri lẹ́yìn.
Asahel pursued after Abner, and as he went he did not turn to the right hand nor to the left from following Abner.
20 Abneri bojú wo ẹ̀yìn rẹ̀, Ó sì béèrè pé, “Ṣé ìwọ Asaheli ni?” Ó dáhùn pé, “Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni.”
Then Abner looked behind him, and said, "Is it you, Asahel?" He answered, "It is I."
21 Nígbà náà, Abneri sọ fún un pé, “Yípadà sí ọ̀tún tàbí òsì; mú ọ̀kan lára àwọn ọ̀dọ́mọkùnrin kí o sì bọ́ ìhámọ́ra rẹ.” Ṣùgbọ́n Asaheli kọ̀ láti dẹ́kun lílépa rẹ̀.
Abner said to him, "Turn aside to your right hand or to your left, and grab one of the young men, and take his armor." But Asahel would not stop from pursuing him.
22 Abneri tún kìlọ̀ fún Asaheli, “Dẹ́kun lílépa mi! Èéṣe tí èmi yóò fi lù ọ́ bolẹ̀? Báwo ni èmi yóò ti wo arákùnrin rẹ Joabu lójú?”
Abner said again to Asahel, "Stop pursuing me. Why should I strike you to the ground? How then should I hold up my face to Joab your brother?"
23 Ṣùgbọ́n ó sí kọ̀ láti padà, Abneri sì fi òdì ọ̀kọ̀ gún un lábẹ́ inú, ọ̀kọ̀ náà sì jáde ní ẹ̀yìn rẹ̀: òun sì ṣubú lulẹ̀ níbẹ̀, ó sì kú ní ibi kan náà; ó sí ṣe gbogbo ènìyàn tí ó dé ibi tí Asaheli gbé ṣubú si, tí ó sì kú, sì dúró jẹ́.
But he refused to stop. Therefore Abner with the back end of the spear struck him in the body, so that the spear came out behind him; and he fell down there, and died in the same place. And it came about that all who came to the place where Asahel had fallen and died, stopped there.
24 Joabu àti Abiṣai sì lépa Abneri: oòrùn sì wọ̀, wọ́n sì dé òkè ti Amima tí o wà níwájú Giah lọ́nà ijù Gibeoni.
But Joab and Abishai pursued after Abner: and the sun went down when they had come to the hill of Ammah, that lies before Giah by the way of the wilderness of Gibeon.
25 Àwọn ọmọ Benjamini sì kó ara wọn jọ wọ́n tẹ̀lé Abneri, wọ́n sì wá di ẹgbẹ́ kan, wọ́n sì dúró lórí òkè kan.
The sons of Benjamin gathered themselves together after Abner, and formed a single group, and stood on the top of a hill.
26 Abneri sì pe Joabu, ó sì bi í léèrè pé, “Idà yóò máa parun títí láéláé bí? Ǹjẹ́ ìwọ kò ì tí ì mọ̀ pé yóò korò níkẹyìn? Ǹjẹ́ yóò ha ti pẹ́ tó kí ìwọ tó sọ fún àwọn ènìyàn náà, kí wọ́n dẹ́kun láti máa lépa arákùnrin wọn.”
Then Abner called to Joab, and said, "Shall the sword devour forever? Do you not know that it will be bitterness in the latter end? How long shall it be then, before you ask the people to stop pursuing their brothers?"
27 Joabu sì wí pé, “Bí Ọlọ́run ti ń bẹ, bí kò ṣe bí ìwọ ti wí, nítòótọ́ ní òwúrọ̀ ni àwọn ènìyàn náà ìbá padà lẹ́yìn arákùnrin wọn.”
Joab said, "As the LORD lives, if you had not spoken, surely the people would not have given up the pursuit of their brothers until the morning."
28 Joabu sì fọ́n ìpè, gbogbo ènìyàn sì dúró jẹ́ẹ́, wọn kò sì lépa Israẹli mọ́, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni wọn kò sì tún jà mọ́.
So Joab blew the trumpet; and all the people stopped, and no longer chased after Israel, and they no longer fought.
29 Abneri àti àwọn ọmọkùnrin rẹ̀ sì fi gbogbo òru náà rìn ní pẹ̀tẹ́lẹ̀, wọ́n sì kọjá Jordani, wọ́n sì rìn ní gbogbo Bitironi, wọ́n sì wá sí Mahanaimu.
Abner and his men went all that night through the Arabah; and they passed over the Jordan, and marched the whole morning, and came to Mahanaim.
30 Joabu sì dẹ́kun àti máa tọ Abneri lẹ́yìn: ó sì kó gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn náà jọ, ènìyàn mọ́kàndínlógún ni ó kú pẹ̀lú Asaheli nínú àwọn ìránṣẹ́ Dafidi.
Joab returned from pursuing Abner. And when he had gathered all the people together, there were missing from David's servants nineteen men and Asahel.
31 Ṣùgbọ́n àwọn ìránṣẹ́ Dafidi sì pa nínú àwọn ènìyàn Benjamini: nínú àwọn ọmọkùnrin Abneri; òjìdínnírinwó ènìyàn.
But the servants of David had struck of the people of Benjamin, from the men of Abner, three hundred and sixty men who died.
32 Wọ́n si gbé Asaheli wọ́n sì sin ín sínú ibojì baba rẹ̀ tí ó wà ní Bẹtilẹhẹmu. Joabu àti àwọn ọmọkùnrin rẹ̀ fi gbogbo òru náà rìn, ilẹ̀ sì mọ́ wọn sí Hebroni.
They took up Asahel, and buried him in the tomb of his father, which was in Bethlehem. Joab and his men went all night, and the day broke on them at Hebron.
