< 2 Samuel 18 >

1 And David marshalled the people that were with him, and set captains of thousands and captains of hundreds over them.
Binilang ni David dagiti soldado a kaduana ket nangdutok kadagiti kapitan ti rinibribu ken kadagiti kapitan ti ginasot a mangituray kadakuada.
2 And David sent forth the people, a third part under the hand of Joab, and a third part under the hand of Abishai the son of Zeruiah, Joab's brother, and a third part under the hand of Ittai the Gittite. And the king said to the people, I will surely go forth with you myself also.
Ket imbaon ni David dagiti armada, kakatlo ti adda iti babaen iti panangituray ni Joab, ti sabali a kakatlo ket adda iti babaen iti panangituray ni Abisai a putot a lalaki ni Zeruyas a kabsat a lalaki ni Joab, ken ti sabali manen a kakatlo iti adda iti babaen iti panangituray ni Ittai a Geteo. Kinuna ti ari iti armada, “Kumuyogak met kadakayo.
3 But the people said, Thou shalt not go forth, for if we should in any case flee, they will not care for us; neither if half of us die, will they care for us; for thou art worth ten thousand of us; and now it is better that thou succour us out of the city.
Ngem kinuna dagiti lallaki, “Saankan a masapul nga umay iti gubatan, ta no aglibaskami awan bibiangda kadakami, wenno no matay ti kagudua kadakami awan bibiangda. Ngem sangapulo a ribu kadakami iti kaibatogam! Ngarud, nasaysayaat a nakasaganaka a mangtulong kadakami manipud iti siudad.”
4 And the king said to them, I will do what is good in your sight. And the king stood by the gate-side, and all the people came out by hundreds and by thousands.
Simmungbat ngarud ti ari kadakuada, “Aramidekto ti aniaman a kasasayaatan para kadakayo.” Nagtakder ti ari iti abay ti ruangan ti siudad bayat iti irurruar dagiti amin nga armada a ginasot ken rinibribu.
5 And the king commanded Joab and Abishai and Ittai, saying, [Deal] gently for my sake with the young man Absalom. And all the people heard when the king gave all the captains charge concerning Absalom.
Binilin ti ari da Joab, Abisai ken Ittai a kunana, “Ipagpagapoyo kaniak ket makilangenlangenkayo a nasayaat iti agtutubo, kenni Absalom.” Nangngeg amin dagiti tattao ti ari nga imbilinna kadagiti kapitan daytoy maipapan kenni Absalom.
6 And the people went out into the field against Israel; and the battle was in the forest of Ephraim.
Isu a napan dagiti armada iti away a makigubat iti Israel; nagsaknap ti gubat iti kabakiran ti Efraim.
7 And the people of Israel were routed before the servants of David, and there was a great slaughter there that day: twenty thousand men.
Naparmek sadiay dagiti armada ti Israel iti sangoanan dagiti soldado ni David; adu ti napapatay sadiay iti dayta nga aldaw ket duapulo a ribu a tattao ti napapatay.
8 And the battle was there scattered over the face of all the country; and the forest devoured more people that day than the sword devoured.
Nagsaknap ti gubat iti entero nga away, ket ad-adu a tattao ti natay iti kabakiran ngem babaen iti kampilan.
9 And Absalom found himself in the presence of David's servants. And Absalom was riding upon a mule, and the mule went under the thick boughs of the great terebinth, and his head caught in the terebinth, and he was taken up between the heaven and the earth; and the mule that was under him went away.
Nairana a nasabat ni Absalom dagiti sumagmamano kadagiti soldado ni David. Nakasakay ni Absalom iti mulona, ket napan ti mulo iti sirok iti nasamek a sangsanga ti dakkel a kayo ti lugo, ket naisalat ti ulona kadagiti sangsanga ti kayo. Nabati isuna nga agbitbitin iti nagbaetan ti daga ken ti tangatang bayat iti panagtultuloy ti pagsaksakayanna a mulo.
10 And a man saw it, and told Joab, and said, Behold, I saw Absalom hanging in a terebinth.
Adda nakita iti daytoy ket imbagana kenni Joab, “Adtoy, nakitak ni Absalom nga agbitbitin iti kayo ti lugo!”
11 And Joab said to the man that told him, And behold, thou sawest [him], and why didst thou not smite him there to the ground? and I would have given thee ten silver pieces and a girdle.
Kinuna ni Joab iti lalaki a nangibaga kenkuana iti maipanggep kenni Absalom, “Adtoy! Nakitam isuna! Apay a saanmo a pinatay isuna nga intinnag iti daga? Ikkanka koman iti sangapulo a siklo ti pirak ken maysa a barikes.”
12 And the man said to Joab, Though I should receive a thousand silver pieces in my hand, yet would I not put forth my hand against the king's son; for in our hearing the king charged thee and Abishai and Ittai, saying, Take care, whoever it be [of you], of the young man Absalom.
Simmungbat ti lalaki kenni Joab, “Uray pay makaawatak iti sangaribu a siklo ti pirak, saankonto latta nga iyunnat ti imak a maibusor iti anak ti ari, gapu ta nangngegmi amin ti panangbilin ti ari kenka, Abisai, ken ni Ittai, a kunana, 'Awan ti siasinoman a mangsagid ti agtutubo a ni Absalom.'
13 Or I should have acted falsely against mine own life, for there is no matter concealed from the king, and thou wouldest have set thyself against [me].
No impustak man ti biagko gapu iti inuulbod (ket awan ti mailimed iti ari), baybay-andakto met laeng.”
14 Then said Joab, I may not tarry thus with thee. And he took three spears in his hand, and thrust them into Absalom's body, while he was yet alive in the midst of the terebinth.
Ket kinuna ni Joab, “Saanka nga urayenen.” Isu a nangala ni Joab iti tallo a gayang ket induyokna dagitoy iti puso ni Absalom, kabayatan a sibibiag pay laeng isuna ken agbitbitin iti lugo.
15 And ten young men that bore Joab's armour surrounded and smote Absalom, and killed him.
Ket pinalawlawan dagiti sangapulo nga agtutubo a nangawit kadagiti kalasag ni Joab ni Absalom, dinarupda isuna, ket pinapatayda isuna.
16 And Joab blew the trumpet, and the people returned from pursuing after Israel; for Joab kept back the people.
Kalpasanna pinuyotan ni Joab ti trumpeta, ket nagsubli ti armada manipud iti panangkamkamatda iti Israel, ta pinagsubli ni Joab ti armada.
17 And they took Absalom, and cast him into a great pit in the wood, and raised a very great heap of stones upon him. And all Israel fled every one to his tent.
Innalada ni Absalom ket impuruakda isuna iti dakkel nga abut iti kabakiran; impunponda ti bangkayna iti sirok ti dakkel a penpen dagiti batbato, kabayatan a naglibas amin ti Israel, tunggal tao iti pagtaenganna.
18 Now Absalom in his lifetime had taken and reared up for himself a monument, which is in the king's dale; for he said, I have no son to keep my name in remembrance; and he called the monument after his own name; and it is called unto this day, Absalom's memorial.
Ita ni Absalom, kabayatan a sibibiag pay laeng, ket nangipatakder iti dakkel nga adigi a bato idiay Tanap ti Ari, ta kinunana, “Awananak iti anak a lalaki a mangitandudo iti pakalaglagipan ti naganko.” Impanaganna iti adigi ti naganna, isu a naawagan iti Baton-lagip ni Absalom aginggana iti daytoy nga aldaw.
19 And Ahimaaz the son of Zadok said, Let me run, I pray, and carry the king the news that Jehovah has avenged him of his enemies.
Ket kinuna ni Ahimaas a putot ni Zadok, “Palubosandak nga agtaray itan a mapan mangipakaammo ti naimbag a damag iti ari, no kasano nga inispal ni Yahweh isuna manipud kadagiti kabusorna.”
20 And Joab said to him, Thou shalt not be a bearer of news to-day, but thou shalt carry the news another day; but to-day thou shalt carry no news, because the king's son is dead.
Simmungbat ni Joab kenkuana, “Saan a sika ti mapan mangibaga ti damag ita nga aldaw; masapul nga aramidem daytoy iti sabali nga aldaw. Awan ti maibagam a damag ita gapu ta natay ti anak ti ari.”
21 Then said Joab to the Cushite, Go, tell the king what thou hast seen. And the Cushite bowed himself to Joab, and ran.
Kalpasanna kinuna ni Joab iti maysa a Cusita, “Mapanmo ibaga iti ari no ania ti nakitam.” Nagkurno ti Cusita kenni Joab, ket nagtaray.
22 And Ahimaaz the son of Zadok said yet again to Joab, Come what may, let me, I pray thee, also run after the Cushite. And Joab said, Why wilt thou run, my son, seeing that there is no news suited [to thee]?
Ket kinuna manen ni Ahimaas na putot a lalaki ni Zadok kenni Joab, “Uray ania ti mapasamak, pangaasim ta pagtarayendak met ket surotek ti Cusita.” Simmungbat ni Joab, “Apay a kayatmo ti mapan, anakko, makitam met nga awanto ti magungonam gapu iti damag?”
23 — But, come what may, let me run. And he said to him, Run. And Ahimaaz ran by the way of the plain, and outstripped the Cushite.
“Aniaman ti mapasamak, kinuna ni Ahimaas, “Tumarayak.” Isu a sinungbatan ni Joab isuna, “Tumarayka.” Ket timmaray ni Ahimaaz iti dalan a kapatadan, ket inunaanna ti Cusita.
24 And David sat between the two gates; and the watchman went up to the roof of the gate, on to the wall, and lifted up his eyes and looked, and behold, a man running alone.
Ita, agtugtugaw ni David iti nagbaetan dagiti akin-uneg ken akinruar a pagserkan. Immuli ti agwanwanawan iti atep ti pagserkan nga agturong iti pader ket nagtannawag. Iti ikikitana, nakitana ti maysa a lalaki a sumungsungad nga agtartaray nga agmaymaysa
25 And the watchman cried, and told the king. And the king said, If he be alone, there is news in his mouth. And he came on and drew near.
Nagpukkaw ti agwanwanawan ket imbagana iti ari. Ket kinuna ti ari, “No is-isuna, adda ti damag iti ngiwatna.” Umasideg nga umasideg ti agtartaray ket nakaasidegen iti siudad.
26 And the watchman saw another man running; and the watchman called to the porter and said, Behold a man running alone. And the king said, He also is a bearer of news.
Nakita manen ti agwanwanawan ti sabali a lalaki nga agtartaray, ket inayaban ti agwanwanawan ti agbanbantay iti pagserkan; kinunana, “Kitaem, adda manen iti sabali a lalaki nga agtartaray nga is-isuna.” Kinuna ti ari, “Umay met isuna mangyeg iti damag.”
27 And the watchman said, I see the running of the foremost like the running of Ahimaaz the son of Zadok. And the king said, He is a good man; and comes with good news.
Isu a kinuna ti agwanwanawan, “Ti ammok, ti panagtartaray ti lalaki iti sangoanan ket kasla iti panagtartaray ni Ahimaas a putot a lalaki ni Zadok.” Kinuna ti ari, “Naimbag isuna a tao ket um-umay nga addaan iti naimbag a damag.”
28 And Ahimaaz called and said to the king, Peace! And he fell down to the earth on his face before the king, and said, Blessed be Jehovah thy God, who has delivered up the men that lifted up their hand against my lord the king.
Kalpasanna immawag ni Ahimaas ket kinunana iti ari, “Nasayaat ti amin.” Ket nagkurno isuna iti sangoanan ti ari a nagdisso ti rupana iti daga ket kinunana, “Madaydayaw ni Yahweh a Diosmo, a nangipaima kadagiti tattao a nangilayat kadagiti imada a maibusor iti apok nga ari.”
29 And the king said, Is it well with the young man Absalom? And Ahimaaz said, I saw a great tumult when Joab sent the king's servant, and me thy servant; but I knew not what it was.
Isu a simmungbat ti ari, “Nasayaat kadi ti kasasaad ti agtutubo a ni Absalom?” Simmungbat ni Ahimaas, “Idi imbaonnak ni Joab nga adipen ti ari kenka, apo ari, nakitak ti kasta unay a pannakariribuk, ngem saanko nga ammo no ania daydiay.”
30 And the king said, Turn aside [and] stand here. And he turned aside and stood still.
Ket kinuna ti ari, “Agpaigidka ket agtakderka ditoy.” Isu a nagpaigid ni Ahimaas, ket nagtakder a saan nga immal-alis.
31 And behold, the Cushite came; and the Cushite said, Let my lord the king receive good tidings, for Jehovah has avenged thee this day of all them that rose up against thee.
Kasangsangpet la unay ti Cusita ket kinunana, “Adda ti naimbag a damag para iti apok nga ari, ta imbalesnaka ni Yahweh ita manipud kadagiti amin nga immalsa a maibusor kenka.”
32 And the king said to the Cushite, Is it well with the young man Absalom? And the Cushite said, The enemies of my lord the king, and all that rise against thee for evil, be as that young man.
Ket kinuna ti ari iti Cusita, “Naimbag kadi ti sasaaden ti agtutubo a ni Absalom?” Insungbat ti Cusita, “Rumbeng koma a lak-amen dagiti kabusor ti apok nga ari, ken dagiti amin nga immalsa a maibusor kenka a mangdangran kenka, iti kas iti linak-am ti agtutubo.”
33 And the king was much moved, and went up to the upper chamber of the gate, and wept; and as he went, he said thus: O my son Absalom, my son, my son Absalom! would God I had died in thy stead, O Absalom, my son, my son!
Ket kasta unay ti panagpulkok ti ari, ket immuli isuna iti siled iti ngatoen ti pagserkan ket nagsangit. Iti ipapanna ket nagladingit, “Anakko nga Absalom, anakko, anakko nga Absalom! Siak la koman iti natay a saan a sika, Absalom, anakko, anakko!”
