< 2 Samuel 4 >

1 Nígbà tí ọmọ Saulu sì gbọ́ pé, Abneri kú ní Hebroni, ọwọ́ rẹ̀ sì rọ, gbogbo Israẹli sì rẹ̀wẹ̀sì.
And when Sauls sonne heard that Abner was dead in Hebron, then his handes were feeble, and all Israel was afraide,
2 Ọmọ Saulu sì ní ọkùnrin méjì tí í ṣe olórí ẹgbẹ́ ogun: a ń pe orúkọ ọ̀kan ní Baanah, àti orúkọ èkejì ní Rekabu, àwọn ọmọ Rimoni ará Beeroti ti àwọn ọmọ Benjamini (nítorí pé a sì ka Beeroti pẹ̀lú Benjamini).
And Sauls sonne had two men that were captaines of bandes: the one called Baanah, and the other called Rechab, the sonnes of Rimmon a Beerothite of the children of Beniamin. (for Beeroth was reckened to Beniamin,
3 Àwọn ará Beeroti sì ti sálọ sí Gittaimu, wọ́n sì ṣe àtìpó níbẹ̀ títí ó fi di ọjọ́ òní yìí.
Because the Beerothites fled to Gittaim, and soiourned there, vnto this day).
4 (Jonatani ọmọ Saulu sì ti bí ọmọkùnrin kan tí ẹsẹ̀ rẹ̀ rọ, òun sì jẹ́ ọdún márùn-ún, nígbà tí ìròyìn dé ní ti Saulu àti Jonatani láti Jesreeli wá, olùtọ́ rẹ̀ sì gbé e, o sì sálọ, ó sì ṣe, bí ó sì ti ń yára láti sálọ, òun sì ṣubú, ó sì ya arọ. Orúkọ rẹ̀ a máa jẹ́ Mefiboṣeti.)
And Ionathan Sauls sonne had a sonne that was lame on his feete: he was fiue yere olde when the tydings came of Saul and Ionathan out of Israel: then his nourse tooke him, and fledde away. And as she made haste to flee, the childe fell, and beganne to halte, and his name was Mephibosheth.
5 Àwọn ọmọ Rimoni, ará Beeroti, Rekabu àti Baanah sì lọ wọ́n sì wá síh ilé Iṣboṣeti ní ọ̀sán gangan, òun sì sinmi lórí ibùsùn kan ní ọjọ́-kanrí.
And the sonnes of Rimmon the Beerothite, Rechab and Baanah went and came in the heat of the day to the house of Ish-bosheth (who slept on a bed at noone)
6 Sì wò ó, bí olùṣọ́ ẹnu-ọ̀nà ilé náà ti ń gbọn àwọn pàǹtí, ó tòògbé ó sì sùn lọ, wọ́n sì wá sí àárín ilé náà, wọ́n sì ṣe bí ẹni pé wọ́n ń fẹ́ mú alikama; wọ́n sì gún un lábẹ́ inú. Rekabu àti Baanah arákùnrin rẹ̀ sì sálọ.
And beholde, Rechab and Baanah his brother came into the middes of the house as they would haue wheate, and they smote him vnder the fift ryb, and fled.
7 Nígbà tí wọ́n wọ ilé náà lọ, òun sì dùbúlẹ̀ lórí ibùsùn rẹ̀ nínú iyàrá rẹ̀, wọ́n sì pa á, wọ́n sì bẹ́ ẹ lórí, wọ́n gbé orí sálọ, wọ́n sì fi gbogbo òru rìn ni pẹ̀tẹ́lẹ̀ náà.
For when they came into the house, he slept on his bed in his bed chamber, and they smote him, and slewe him, and beheaded him, and tooke his head, and gate them away through the plaine all the night.
8 Wọ́n sì gbé orí Iṣboṣeti tọ Dafidi wá ní Hebroni, wọ́n sì wí fún ọba pé, “Wò ó, orí Iṣboṣeti ọmọ Saulu ọ̀tá rẹ, tí ó ti ń wá ẹ̀mí rẹ kiri, Olúwa ti gbẹ̀san fún ọba olúwa mi lónìí lára Saulu àti lára irú-ọmọ rẹ̀.”
And they brought the head of Ish-bosheth vnto Dauid to Hebron, and saide to the King, Beholde the head of Ish-bosheth Sauls sonne thine enemie, who sought after thy life: and the Lord hath auenged my lorde the King this day of Saul, and of his seede.
9 Dafidi sì dá Rekabu àti Baanah arákùnrin rẹ̀, àwọn ọmọ Rimoni ará Beeroti lóhùn, ó sì wí fún wọn pé, “Bí Olúwa ti ń bẹ, ẹni tí ó gba ẹ̀mí mi lọ́wọ́ gbogbo ìpọ́njú.
Then Dauid answered Rechab and Baanah his brother, the sonnes of Rimmon the Beerothite, and saide vnto them, As the Lord liueth, who hath deliuered my soule out of al aduersity,
10 Nígbà tí ẹnìkan rò fún mi pé, ‘Wò ó, Saulu ti kú,’ lójú ara rẹ̀ òun sì jásí ẹni tí ó mú ìyìnrere wá, èmi sì mú un, mo sì pa á ní Siklagi, ẹni tí ó ṣe bí òun ó rí nǹkan gbà nítorí ìròyìn rere rẹ̀.
When one tolde me, and sayde that Saul was dead, (thinking to haue brought good tydings) I tooke him and slewe him in Ziklag, who thought that I woulde haue giuen him a rewarde for his tidings:
11 Mélòó mélòó ni, nígbà tí àwọn ìkà ènìyàn pa olódodo ènìyàn kan ni ilé rẹ̀ lórí ibùsùn rẹ̀—ǹjẹ́ èmi ha sì lè ṣe aláìbéèrè ẹ̀jẹ̀ rẹ̀ lọ́wọ́ yín bí? Kí èmi sì mú yín kúrò láààyè.”
How much more, when wicked men haue slaine a righteous person in his owne house, and vpon his bed? shall I not now therfore require his blood at your hand, and take you from the earth?
12 Dafidi sì fi àṣẹ fún àwọn ọ̀dọ́mọkùnrin rẹ̀, wọ́n sì pa wọ́n, wọ́n sì gé ọwọ́ àti ẹsẹ̀ wọn, a sì fi wọ́n há lórí igi ní Hebroni. Ṣùgbọ́n wọ́n mú orí Iṣboṣeti, wọ́n sì sin ín ní ibojì Abneri ní Hebroni.
Then Dauid commanded his yong men, and they slew them, and cut off their hands and their feete, and hanged them vp ouer the poole in Hebron: but they tooke the head of Ishbosheth, and buried it in the sepulchre of Abner in Hebron.
