< Kings II 15 >

1 And it came to pass after this that Abessalom prepared for himself chariots and horses, and fifty men to run before him.
Bangʼ kinde moko, Abisalom nongʼiewo gari gi farese kendo ne en gi ji piero abich mane ringo e nyime.
2 And Abessalom rose early, and stood by the side of the way of the gate: and it came to pass that every man who had a cause, came to the king for judgement, and Abessalom cried to him, and said to him, Of what city are you? And he said, Your servant [is] of one of the tribes of Israel.
Ne ochiewo gokinyi kendo nochungʼ e bath yo mochiko dhoranga dala maduongʼ. E kinde duto mane ngʼato angʼata obiro man-gi wach modwaro mondo ruoth ongʼadnee rieko, Abisalom ne luonge kapenje niya, “Ia e dala mane?” To nodwoke niya, “Jatichni oa e achiel kuom dhout Israel.”
3 And Abessalom said to him, See, your affairs [are] right and clear, yet you have no one [appointed] of the king to hear you.
Eka Abisalom ne odwoke niya, “Aneno ni wecheni beyo kendo gin adier; to makmana ni onge ngʼat ma ruoth oseketo mondo owinjne weche makamagi.”
4 And Abessalom said, O that one would make me a judge in the land; then every man who had a dispute or a cause would come to me, and I would judge him!
Kendo Abisalom nomedo wacho niya, “Ka dine yiera mondo abed jangʼad bura e piny, to ngʼato angʼata man-gi ywak kata wach moro, nyalo biro ira kendo anyalo neno ni ongʼadne bura mowinjore.”
5 And it came to pass when a man came near to do him obeisance, that he stretched out his hand, and took hold of him, and kissed him.
Bende e kinde ma ngʼato angʼata nobiro ire mondo okulre e nyime, Abisalom ne mako lwet ngʼatno kendo nyodhe.
6 And Abessalom did after this manner to all Israel that came to the king for judgement; and Abessalom gained the hearts of the men of Israel.
Abisalom notimo kama ni jo-Israel duto mane biro ir ruoth mondo ongʼadnigi bura, kendo noywayogo chuny jo-Israel.
7 And it came to pass after forty years, that Abessalom said to his father, I will go now, and pay my vows, which I vowed to the Lord in Chebron.
Bangʼ ka higni angʼwen noserumo, Abisalom nowachone ruoth niya, “Yiena mondo adhi Hebron kendo achop singruok moro mane atimo gi Jehova Nyasaye.
8 For your servant vowed a vow when I lived at Gedsur in Syria, saying, If the Lord should indeed restore me to Jerusalem, then will I serve the Lord.
Kane jatichni odak Geshur e piny Aram, ne asingora kama: ‘Ka Jehova Nyasaye noduoga Jerusalem, to anadhi alam Jehova Nyasaye Hebron.’”
9 And the king said to him, Go in peace. And he arose and went to Chebron.
Ruoth nowachone niya, “Dhi gi kwe.” Omiyo nodhi Hebron.
10 And Abessalom sent spies throughout all the tribes of Israel, saying, When you hear the sound of the trumpet, then shall you say, Abessalom is become king in Chebron.
Eka Abisalom nooro joote lingʼ-lingʼ e dhout Israel duto kowacho niya, “E sa moro amora ma unuwinj ka turumbete oywak, to wachuru ni, ‘Ruodh Hebron, en Abisalom.’”
11 And there went with Abessalom two hundred chosen men from Jerusalem; and they went in their simplicity, and knew not anything.
Ji mia ariyo moa Jerusalem nobiro kod Abisalom. Ne oluong-gi kaka welo mi gidhi gichuny maler ka ok gingʼeyo gimoro amora madhi nyime.
12 And Abessalom sent to Achitophel the Theconite, the counsellor of David, from his city, from Gola, where he was sacrificing: and there was a strong conspiracy; and the people with Abessalom were increasingly numerous.
Kane Abisalom timo misengini, nooro joote mondo oom Ahithofel ma ja-Gilon, jangʼad rieko ni Daudi mondo obi koa Gilo, ma dalagi. Omiyo tim mar ngʼanyo nomedo bedo gi teko, kendo ji mane luwo bangʼ Abisalom nosiko ka medore.
13 And there came a messenger to David, saying, the heart of the men of Israel is gone after Abessalom.
Jaote nobiro mowachone Daudi niya, “Chuny jo-Israel nigi Abisalom.”
14 And David said to all his servants who were with him in Jerusalem, Rise, and let us flee, for we have no refuge from Abessalom: make haste and go, lest he overtake us speedily, and bring evil upon us, and strike the city with the edge of the sword.
Eka Daudi nowachone jodonge duto mane ni kode Jerusalem niya, “Biuru! Nyaka to waring waa ka, ka ok kamano onge ngʼato kuomwa mabiro tony e lwet Abisalom. Nyaka wawuog mapiyo, nono to enobi mapiyo mojukwa mi otiekwa kendo oneg ji e dala maduongʼ gi ligangla.”
15 And the king's servants said to the king, In all things which our lord the king chooses, behold [we are] your servants.
Jodong ruoth nodwoke niya, “Jotiji to oikore mar timo gimoro amora ma ruodhwa ma en ruoth oyiero.”
16 And the king and all his house went out on foot: and the king left ten women of his concubines to keep the house.
Ruoth nowuok kaachiel gi joode duto makmana monde mamoko apar ema ne oweyo karito dala ruoth.
17 And the king and all his servants went out on foot; and abode in a distant house.
Omiyo ruoth nowuok kaachiel gi ji duto kaluwo bangʼe, negidhi ma gichungʼ matin kamoro mochwalore.
18 And all his servants passed on by his side, and every Chelethite, and every Phelethite, and they stood by the olive tree in the wilderness: and all the people marched near him, and all his court, and all the men of might, and all the men of war, six hundred: and they were present at his side: and every Chelethite, and every Phelethite, and all the six hundred Gittites that came on foot out of Geth, and they went on before the king.
Joge duto nowuotho mokadho ka gin kaachiel gi jo-Kereth duto kod jo-Peleth; to gi jo-Giti duto mia auchiel mane obiro kode koa Gath bende ne wuotho e nyim ruoth.
19 And the king said to Ethi, the Gittite, Why do you also go with us? return, and dwell with the king, for you are a stranger, and you has come forth as a sojourner out of your place.
Ruoth nowachone Itai ja-Giti niya, “Angʼo momiyo idhi kodwa? Dogi mondo ibed gi Ruoth Abisalom. In ngʼama wendo, moringo koa e pinygi.
20 Whereas you came yesterday, shall I today cause you to travel with us, and shall you [thus] change your place? you did come forth yesterday, and today shall I set you in motion to go along with us? I indeed will go wherever I may go: return then, and cause your brethren to return with you, and may the Lord deal mercifully and truly with you.
Yande eka ibiro ka. To koro tinendeni ere kaka diwuoth kodwa kamoro amora, to an akia kuma adhiye? Dogi mondo ikaw jothuru idhigo. Mad ngʼwono gi adieri bed kodi.”
21 And Ethi answered the king and said, [As] the Lord lives and as my lord the king lives, in the place wherever my lord shall be, whether it be for death or life, there shall your servant be.
To Itai nodwoko ruoth niya, “Akwongʼora gi nying Jehova Nyasaye mangima kendo akwongʼora ni ruodha ma en ruoth ni kamoro amora ma ruodha ma en ruoth nobedie, bed ni en kar ngima kata kar tho, to kanyo bende ema jatichni nobedie.”
22 And the king said to Ethi, Come and pass over with me. So Ethi the Gittite and the king passed over, and all his servants, and all the multitude with him.
Daudi nowachone Itai niya, “Wuoth wadhi.” Omiyo Itai ja-Giti nowuotho gi joge duto gi joutegi mane ni kode.
23 And all the country wept with a loud voice. And all the people passed by over the brook of Kedron; and the king crossed the brook Kedron: and all the people and the king passed on towards the way of the wilderness.
Ji duto mane ni kama gikadhoe noywak matek ka jogo duto kadho. Ruoth bende ne ongʼado Holo mar Kidron kendo ji duto nowuotho kochomo yo thim.
24 And behold also Sadoc, and all the Levites were with him, bearing the ark of the covenant of the Lord from Baethar: and they set down the ark of God; and Abiathar went up, until all the people had passed out of the city.
Zadok bende ne ni kanyo to gi jo-Lawi duto mane ni kode notingʼo Sandug Muma mar singruok mar Nyasaye. Negiketo Sandug Muma mar singruok mar Nyasaye piny, eka Abiathar nochiwo misengini nyaka ji duto notieko wuok e dala maduongʼ.
25 And the king said to Sadoc, Carry back the ark of God into the city: if I should find favour in the eyes of the Lord, then will he bring me back, and he will show me it and its beauty.
Eka ruoth nowachone Zadok niya, “Dwok Sandug Muma mar Nyasaye e dala maduongʼ. Ka Jehova Nyasaye okecha, to enoduoga ka kendo enomi ane Sandug Muma kod kar dak Nyasaye kendo.
26 But if he should say thus, I have no pleasure in you; behold, [here] I am, let him do to me according to that which is good in his eyes.
To kowacho ni, ‘Ok amor kodi,’ to aikora; we mondo otim gima oneno ni berne.”
27 And the king said to Sadoc the priest, Behold, you shall return to the city in peace, and Achimaas your son, and Jonathan the son of Abiathar, your two sons with you.
Ruoth nomedo wacho ni Zadok jadolo niya, “Donge in janen? Dogi dala gi kwe, gi wuodi ma Ahimaz gi Jonathan wuod Abiathar. In kod Abiathar kawuru yawuotu ariyo udhigo.
28 Behold, I continue in arms in Araboth of the desert, until there come tidings from you to report to me.
Abiro rito kama iyoroe aora e thim nyaka ayud wach moa iri kinyisago gima dhi nyime.
29 So Sadoc and Abiathar brought back the ark of the Lord to Jerusalem, and it continued there.
Omiyo Zadok gi Abiathar nodwoko Sandug Muma mar Nyasaye Jerusalem ma gibet kanyo.”
30 And David went up by the ascent of [the mount of] Olives, ascending and weeping, and had his head covered, and went barefooted: and all the people that were with him covered [every] man his head; and they went up, ascending and weeping.
To Daudi nomedo wuotho ka twenyo got mar Zeituni kowuotho gi tiende nono, koumo wiye kendo oywak. Ji duto mane ni kode bende noumo wigi, to gin bende ne giywak ka gitwenyo got.
31 And it was reported to David, saying, Achitophel also [is] amongst the conspirators with Abessalom. And David said, O Lord my God, disconcert, I pray you, the counsel of Achitophel.
Nonwangʼo ka Daudi osenyisi niya, “Ahithofel en achiel kuom jo-andhoga mane oriwore gi Abisalom.” Omiyo Daudi nolemo niya, “Yaye Jehova Nyasaye, lok ngʼado rieko mar Ahithofel obed fuwo.”
32 And David came as far as Ros, where he worshipped God: and behold, Chusi the chief friend of David came out to meet him, having tore his garment, and earth [was] upon his head.
Kane Daudi ochopo ewi got kuma ji ne lamoe Nyasaye chon, Hushai ja-Arki ne ni kanyo mondo orom kode, lawe ne oyiech kendo buru ne ni e wiye.
33 And David said to him, If you should go over with me, then will you be a burden to me;
Daudi nowachone niya, “Kidhi koda to idhi bedona tingʼ mapek.
34 but if you shall return to the city, and shall say to Abessalom, Your brethren are passed over, and the king your father is passed over after me: and now I am your servant, O king, suffer me to live: at one time even of late I was the servant of your father, and now I [am] your humble servant—so shall you disconcert for me, the counsel of Achitophel.
To kidok e dala maduongʼ miwachone Abisalom ni, ‘Abiro bedo jatiji, yaye ruoth; nikech ne an jatij wuonu ndalo mokadho, to sani koro abiro bedo jatiji,’ to kitimo ma to inyalo konya ketho ngʼado rieko mar Ahithofel.
35 And, behold, [there are] there with you Sadoc and Abiathar the priests; and it shall be that every word that you shall hear of the house of the king, you shall report it to Sadoc and Abiathar the priests.
Donge jodolo ma gin Zadok gi Abiathar jodhi bedo kodi kuno? Wachnegi gimoro amora miwinjo e dala ruoth.
36 Behold, [there are] there with them their two sons, Achimaas the son of Sadoc, and Jonathan the son of Abiathar; and by them you shall report to me every word which you shall hear.
Yawuotgi ariyo ma gin Ahimaz wuod Zadok gi Jonathan wuod Abiathar bende ni kanyo kodgi. Orgi ira gi gimoro amora miwinjo.”
37 So Chusi the friend of David went into the city, and Abessalom was lately gone into Jerusalem.
Omiyo osiep Daudi ma Hushai nochopo Jerusalem e sa mane Abisalom donjoe e dala maduongʼ.
