2 Samuel 15
1 Now after these things Absalom made himself chariots, and horsemen, and fifty men to run before him.
Tukun ma inge Absalom el akoela chariot se ac horse ekasr nu sel sifacna, oayapa mwet lumngaul in atlol.
2 And Absalom rising up early stood by the entrance of the gate, and when any man had business to come to the king’s judgment, Absalom called him to him, and said: Of what city art thou? He answered, and said: Thy servant is of such a tribe of Israel.
El ac toang tukakek ac som tu pe inkanek ah ke mutunpot lun siti ah. Na pacl nukewa mwet se fin tuku in fahkak sie fohs ku alein ma el lungse tuh tokosra elan aksuwosye, na Absalom el ac pangonma mwet sac ac siyuk lah el tuku ya me. Tukun mwet sac el fahk lah el tuku ke sruf ya me,
3 And Absalom answered him: Thy words seem to me good and just. But there is no man appointed by the king to hear thee. And Absalom said:
na Absalom el ac fahk, “Liye, ma sap uh wi kom lac, tusruktu wangin aolyal tokosra in lohng ke tukak lom uh.”
4 O that they would make me judge over the land, that all that have business might come to me, that I might do them justice.
Ac el ac sifilpa fahk, “Saok ngan mwet nununku se! Lukun kutena mwet su oasr amei ku tukak yorol, ku in tuku nu yuruk ac nga sang nununku suwohs nu sel.”
5 Moreover when any man came to him to salute him, he put forth his hand, and took him, and kissed him.
Mwet sac fin kalukyang nu yorol Absalom in srimi ye mutal, na Absalom el ac saplakot sruokilya ac ngokya mutal.
6 And this he did to all Israel that came for judgment, to be heard by the king, and he enticed the hearts of the men of Israel.
Absalom el oru ouinge nu sin mwet Israel nukewa su tuku nu yurin tokosra in suk nununku suwohs, ouinge mwet nukewa insewowo sel.
7 And after forty years, Absalom said to king David: Let me go, and pay my vows which I have vowed to the Lord in Hebron.
Tukun yac akosr Absalom el fahk nu sel Tokosra David, “Leum luk, lela ngan som nu Hebron, ac akfalye wulela se nga wuleang nu sin LEUM GOD kac.
8 For thy servant made avow, when he was in Gessur of Syria, saying: If the Lord shall bring me again into Jerusalem I will offer sacrifice to the Lord.
Ke pacl se nga muta in acn Geshur in acn Syria, nga tuh wulela nu sin LEUM GOD mu El fin folokinyula nu Jerusalem, nga ac alu nu sel in acn Hebron.”
9 And king David said to him: Go in peace. And he arose, and went to Hebron.
Na tokosra el fahk, “Fahsr in misla.” Ouinge Absalom el som nu Hebron.
10 And Absalom sent spies into all the tribes of Israel, saying: As soon as you shall hear the sound of the trumpet, say ye: Absalom reigneth in Hebron.
Tusruktu el supwala mwet utuk kas nu sin sruf nukewa Israel in fahk, “Pacl se kowos lohngak pusren mwe ukuk uh, kowos sala ac fahk, ‘Absalom el tokosrala in acn Hebron!’”
11 Now there went with Absalom two hundred men out of Jerusalem that were called, going with simplicity of heart, and knowing nothing of the design.
Absalom el tuh suli mwet luofoko in acn Jerusalem in welul som. Elos tiana etu ke pwapa lukma se el akoo — elos fahsrna ke sripen elos lulalfongel.
12 Absalom also sent for Achitophel the Gilonite, David’s counsellor, from his city Gilo. And while he was offering sacrifices, there was a strong conspiracy, and the people running together increased with Absalom.
Ke pacl Absalom el oru kisa lal, el supwala pac mwet nu in acn Gilo elos in solal Ahithophel, su sie sin mwet pwapa fulat lal Tokosra David. Pwapa se lal Absalom in lain tokosra inge kui, ac pisen mwet lal yokyokelik.
13 And there came a messenger to David, saying: All Israel with their whole heart followeth Absalom.
Sie mwet utuk kas el som fahk nu sel David, “Mwet Israel elos wulela lah elos ac welulla Absalom.”
14 And David said to his servants, that were with him in Jerusalem: Arise and let us flee: for we shall not escape else from the face of Absalom: make haste to go out, lest he come and overtake us, and bring ruin upon us, and smite the city with the edge of the sword.
Ouinge David el fahk nu sin mwet pwapa nukewa lal su welul muta Jerusalem, “Kut enenu in som liki acn Jerusalem ingena, kut fin lungse kaingla lukel Absalom! Aksaye! El akura tuku nu inge, kutangkutla ac uniya mwet nukewa in siti uh!”
15 And the king’s servants said to him: Whatsoever our lord the king shall command, we thy servants will willingly execute.
Na elos fahk, “Aok, leum fulat lasr. Kut akola in oru ma nukewa kom fahk.”
16 And the king went forth, and all his household on foot: and the king left ten women his concubines to keep the house:
Na tokosra el mukuila wi sou lal nukewa, ac mwet pwapa lal, sayen mutan kulansap singoul kial ma el filiya in karingin lohm sin tokosra.
17 And the king going forth and all Israel on foot, stood afar off from the house:
Ke tokosra ac mwet lal nukewa som liki siti uh, elos tui ke lohm se safla.
18 And all his servants walked by him, and the bands of the Cerethi, and the Phelethi, and all the Gethites, valiant warriors, six hundred men who had followed him from Geth on foot, went before the king.
Mwet pwapa lal nukewa elos tu siskal ke mwet mweun karinginyal elos fahsr ye mutal. Mwet mweun onfoko ma welulma liki acn Gath elos oayapa fahla ye mutal.
19 And the king said to Ethai the Gethite: Why comest thou with us? return and dwell with the king, for thou art a stranger, and art come out of thy own place.
Ac tokosra el fahk nu sel Ittai, mwet kol lun mwet Gath inge, “Efu ku kom wi kut som? Folokla muta yurin tokosra sasu sac. Kom sie mwetsac ac kom kaingla liki facl sum sifacna.
20 Yesterday thou camest, and today shalt thou be forced to go forth with us? but I shall go whither I am going: return thou, and take back thy brethren with thee, and the Lord will shew thee mercy, and truth, because thou hast shewn grace and fidelity.
Kom tufahna tuku muta yenu kitin pacl na, na efu ku ngan lela kom in wiyu forfor? Nga sifacna, nga tia etu lah nga ac som nu ya. Folokla, ac us mwet lom ingan in wi kom. Lela LEUM GOD Elan kulang ac pwaye nu suwos.”
21 And Ethai answered the king, saying: As the Lord liveth, and as my lord the king liveth: in what place soever thou shalt be, my lord, O king, either in death, or in life, there will thy servant be.
A Ittai el topuk, “Leum fulat, nga fulahk nu sum inen LEUM GOD lah yen nukewa kom forfor nu we, nga ac wi kom in pacl nukewa, finne nu ke misa.”
22 And David said to Ethai: Come, and pass over. And Ethai the Gethite passed, and all the men that were with him, and the rest of the people.
David el topuk, “Wona. Fahsr nu meet!” Na Ittai el fahsr nu meet wi mwet lal ac sou lalos nukewa.
23 And they all wept with a loud voice, and all the people passed over: the king also himself went over the brook Cedron, and all the people marched towards the way that looketh to the desert.
Mwet uh tung ma lulap ke David ac mwet lal ah som. Tokosra el tupalla Infacl srisrik Kidron, ac mwet lal elos fahsr tokol. Na elos tukeni oatula in som nu yen mwesis.
24 And Sadoc the priest also came, and all the Levites with him carrying the ark of the covenant of God, and they set down the ark of God: and Abiathar went up, till all the people that was come out of the city had done passing.
Zadok, mwet tol, el muta in acn sac, ac mwet Levi su us Tuptup in Wuleang elos muta pac yorol. Elos filiya tuptup sac ac tia sifil srukak nwe ke na mwet nukewa illa liki siti ah. Abiathar, mwet tol, el oasr pac we.
25 And the king said to Sadoc: Carry back the ark of God into the city: if I shall find grace in the sight of the Lord, he will bring me again, and he will shew me it, and his tabernacle.
Na tokosra el fahk nu sel Zadok, “Folokunla Tuptup in Wuleang uh nu in siti uh. LEUM GOD El fin insewowo sik, El ac fah lela nga in foloko ac liye, oayapa liye acn oan we uh.
26 But if he shall say to me: Thou pleasest me not: I am ready, let him do that which is good before him.
A El fin tia insewowo sik, lela Elan oru nu sik fal nu ke lungse lal.”
27 And the king said to Sadoc the priest: O seer, return into the city in peace: and let Achimaas thy son, and Jonathan the son of Abiathar, your two sons, be with you.
Na el sifilpa fahk nu sel Zadok, “Usalla Ahimaaz wen nutum, ac Jonathan wen natul Abiathar, ac folokla nu in siti ah in misla.
28 Behold I will lie hid in the plains of the wilderness, till there come word from you to certify me.
A nga ac muta soanekom ke acn in tupalla infacl uh ke yen mwesis, nwe ke na nga eis kas sum me.”
29 So Sadoc and Abiathar carried back the ark of God into Jerusalem: and they tarried there.
Ouinge Zadok ac Abiathar us Tuptup in Wuleang folokla nu in Jerusalem ac mutana we.
30 But David went up by the ascent of mount Olivet, going up and weeping, walking barefoot, and with his head covered, and all the people that were with them, went up with their heads covered weeping.
David el fahsryak nu Fineol Olive, ac el tung. El tia fahluk, ac el sunya sifal in akkalemye asor lal. Mwet nukewa su fahsr tokol elos afinya pac sifalos ac tung pac.
31 And it was told David that Achitophel also was in the conspiracy with Absalom, and David said: Infatuate, O Lord, I beseech thee, the counsel of Achitophel.
Ke fwackyang nu sel David lah Ahithophel el welulla Absalom ac elos su lainul, el pre ac fahk, “O LEUM GOD, nunak munas oru tuh kas in kasru lal Ahithophel in ekla kas lusrongten!”
32 And when David was come to the top of the mountain, where he was about to adore the Lord, behold Chusai the Arachite, came to meet him with his garment rent and his head covered with earth.
Ke David el sun fin tohktok uh, acn se ma acn in alu se oan we, Hushai mwet Arch, kawuk se lal David su el lulalfongi yohk, el tuku sonol, ac nuknuk lal ah mihsalik, ac fohkfok oan fin sifal.
33 And David said to him: If thou come with me, thou wilt be a burden to me:
Ac David el fahk nu sel, “Kom ac fah tia mwe kasru nu sik kom fin wiyu inge.
34 But if thou return into the city, and wilt say to Absalom: I am thy servant, O king: as I have been thy father’s servant, so I will be thy servant: thou shalt defeat the counsel of Achitophel.
Tusruktu kom ku in kasreyu kom fin folokla nu in siti ah, ac fahk nu sel Absalom lah inge kom ac kulansupal ke insiom na pwaye, oana ke kom tuh kulansupu papa tumal. Ac oru ma nukewa kom ku in oru in lain kas in kasru lal Ahithophel nu sel.
35 And thou hast with thee Sadoc, and Abiathar the priests: and what thing soever thou shalt hear out of the king’s house, thou shalt tell it to Sadoc and Abiathar the priests.
Mwet tol Zadok ac Abiathar eltal ac muta we. Fahkang nu seltal ma nukewa kom lohng in lohm sin tokosra ah.
36 And there are with them their two sons Achimaas the son of Sadoc, and Jonathan the son of Abiathar: and you shall send by them to me every thing that you shall hear.
Wen natultal, Ahimaaz ac Jonathan, eltal oasr yoroltal, ac kom ku in supwaltalma nu yuruk in fahk nu sik ma nukewa ma kom lohng.”
37 Then Chusai the friend of David went into the city, and Absalom came into Jerusalem.
Ouinge Hushai, kawuk lal David, el folok nu in siti ah, in pacl se na ma Absalom el utyak nu we.
