2 Samuel 14
1 Then Ioab the sonne of Zeruiah perceyued, that the Kings heart was toward Absalom,
Nioni’ Ioabe ana’ i Tseroià te amy Absalome ty arofo’ i mpanjakay.
2 And Ioab sent to Tekoah, and brought thence a subtile woman, and sayd vnto her, I pray thee, fayne thy selfe to mourne, and nowe put on mourning apparel, and anoynt not thy selfe with oyle: but be as a woman that had now long time mourned for the dead.
Nañitrik’ amy Tekoý t’Ioabe, nangalake rakemba mahihitse boak’ añe, le nanao ty hoe ama’e: Miambane ama’o, ehe misarea mpandala, le mañombea sarom-pandalàñe, le ko mihosotse menake, fa mintse rakemba ela nandala vilasy;
3 And come to the King, and speake on this maner vnto him, (for Ioab taught her what she should say).
vaho akia mb’amy mpanjakay mb’eo, misaontsia an-tsata zao. Aa le napo’ Ioabe am-palie’e ty ho saontsie’e.
4 Then the woman of Tekoah spake vnto the king, and fel downe on her face to the ground, and did obeysance, and sayd, Helpe, O King.
Aa ie nisaontsy amy mpanjakay i rakemba nte-Tekoý, le nibabok’ an-tane eo, nidrakadrakake nanao ty hoe: Oloro ry mpanjaka.
5 Then the King sayd vnto her, What aileth thee? And she answered, I am in deede a widow, and mine husband is dead:
Le hoe i mpanjakay tama’e: Ino ty mañore azo? Le hoe re: Toe vantotse raho, mate valy.
6 And thine handmayd had two sonnes, and they two stroue together in the fielde: (and there was none to part them) so the one smote the other, and slew him.
Nanañ’ anadahy roe ty anak’ ampata’o, aa ie nifanehak’ an-kivok’ añe, tsy teo ty hampifanarake iareo fa zinevo’ ty raike ty raike namono aze.
7 And beholde, the whole familie is risen against thine handmayde, and they sayde, Deliuer him that smote his brother, that we may kill him for the soule of his brother whome hee slewe, that we may destroy the heire also: so they shall quenche my sparkle which is left, and shall not leaue to mine husband neither name nor posteritie vpon the earth.
Ie amy zao, nitroatse niatreatre ami’ ty mpitoro’o o longo iabio nanao ty hoe: Aseseo i nañè-doza aman-drahalahi’ey hamonoa’ay ty amy fiain-drahalahi’e zinevo’ey, handrotsaha’ iareo ka ty mpandova. Izay ty hamonoa’ iareo ty sehangam-poroha mirekake, tsy hanañam-baliko ndra tahinañe ndra tariratse ambone tane atoy.
8 And the King said vnto the woman, Go to thine house, and I wil giue a charge for thee.
Le hoe i mpanjakay tamy rakembay: Mimpolia mb’añ’ anjomba’o mb’eo, le hamantoke ty ama’o raho.
9 Then the woman of Tekoah said vnto the King, My lord, O King, this trespas be on me, and on my fathers house, and the King and his throne be giltlesse.
Aa le hoe i rakemba nte-Tekoiý tamy mpanjakay: O ry talèko, mpanjaka, ee te ho amako ty hakeo naho ami’ty anjomban-draeko vaho halio tahiñe ty fiambesa’ i mpanjakay.
10 And the King sayde, Bring him to me that speaketh against thee, and he shall touche thee no more.
Le hoe i mpanjakay tama’e: Ndra iaia ty hiatreatre azo, aseseo amako le tsy ho tsapae’e.
11 Then said she, I pray thee, let the King remember the Lord thy God, that thou wouldest not suffer many reuengers of blood to destroy, lest they slay my sonne. And he answered, As the Lord liueth, there shall not one heare of thy sonne fall to the earth.
Aa le hoe re: Miambane ama’o, ehe te ho tiahi’ i mpanjakay t’Iehovà Andrianañahare’o, le tsy hijoy ka ty mpamale fate, tsy mone harotsa’ iereo i anakoy. Le hoe re: Kanao veloñe t’Iehovà, leo raik’ ami’ty maroi’ i ana’oy tsy hipok’ an-tane.
12 Then the woman said, I pray thee, let thine handmayde speake a worde to my lord the King. And he sayd, Say on.
Le hoe i rakembay: Mihalaly ama’o: adono hinday entañe raik’ amy talèko mpanjakay ty anak’ ampata’o. Le hoe re Misaontsia.
13 Then the woman sayde, Wherefore then hast thou thought such a thing against the people of God? or why doeth the King, as one which is faultie, speake this thing, that he will not bring againe his banished?
Aa hoe i rakembay: Ino arè ty nikililia’o am’ondatin’ Añahareo o raha zao, t’ie, amy saontsy zay ty mete nampanan-kakeo i mpanjakay kanao tsy ampihitrife’e himpoly i naitoañey.
14 For we must needes dye, and we are as water spilt on the ground, which cannot be gathered vp againe: neither doeth God spare any person, yet doeth he appoynt meanes, not to cast out from him, him that is expelled.
Amy te hivetrake zahay, manahake ty rano nadoañe an-tane, ie tsy mete tovizeñe; tsy mirihy ondaty t’i Andrianañahare; f’ie toe misafiry lalañe, soa tsy hatao añombelahi-mavo i naitoañey.
15 Nowe therefore that I am come to speake of this thing vnto my lord the King, the cause is that the people haue made me afrayd: therefore thine handmayde sayd, Nowe will I speake vnto the King: it may be that the King will perfourme the request of his handmayde.
Aa kanao nimb’ etoa raho nanese o entañe zao amy talèko mpanjakay, le amy te nañembañe ahy ondatio; le hoe raho, Ho volañeko amy mpanjakay henaneo, hera hanoe’e ty halalim-pitoro’e.
16 For the King wil heare, to deliuer his handmayde out of the hande of the man that woulde destroy mee, and also my sonne from the inheritance of God.
Amy te hijanjiñe i mpanjakay, handrombake i mpitoro’ey ampità’ indaty te handrotsak’ ahy naho i anakoy amy lovan’ Añaharey.
17 Therefore thine handmaid sayd, The word of my lord the King shall now be comfortable: for my lorde the King is euen as an Angel of God in hearing of good and bad: therefore the Lord thy God be with thee.
Le hoe ty anak’ ampata’o: Ehe te hañohò ahy ty saontsin-talèko mpanjaka; fa hambañe ami’ty anjelin’ Añahare ty talèko mpanjaka, hahafitsikarake ty soa ami’ty raty; aa le ho ama’o abey t’Iehovà Andrianañahare’o.
18 Then the King answered, and said vnto the woman, Hide not from me, I pray thee, the thing that I shall aske thee. And the woman sayde, Let my lord the King now speake.
Le hoe i mpanjakay amy rakembay: Ehe, ko aetak’ amako ty hañontaneako azo. Le hoe i rakembay: Ehe misaontsia, ry talèko mpanjaka.
19 And the King said, Is not the hand of Ioab with thee in all this? Then the woman answered, and sayd, As thy soule liueth, my lord the King, I will not turne to the right hande nor to the left, from ought that my lorde the King hath spoken: for euen thy seruant Ioab bade mee, and he put all these wordes in the mouth of thine handmayde.
Le hoe i mpanjakay: Tsy ama’o amo raha zao hao ty fità’ Ioabe? Le hoe ty natoi’ i rakembay: Kanao veloñe ty arofo’o, ry talèko mpanjaka, tsy eo ty mahafitolike mb’am-pitàn-kavana ndra havia amy nisaontsie’ i mpanjakaiy; fa toe nihalaly amako t’i Ioabe mpitoro’o, ie ty nampipoke i entañe iaby zay am-bava’ o anak’ am-pata’oo;
20 For to the intent that I should chage the forme of speach, thy seruant Ioab hath done this thing: but my lord is wise according to the wisdome of an Angel of God to vnderstande all things that are in the earth.
ty hampiova ty tarehe’ i rahay ty nanoe’ Ioabe mpitoro’o o raha zao; toe mahihitse o talèkoo hoe hihin’ anjelin’ Añahare, hahafohina’e ze he’e an-tane atoy.
21 And the King sayde vnto Ioab, Beholde nowe, I haue done this thing: go then, and bring the yong man Absalom againe.
Aa le hoe i mpanjakay am’ Ioabe: Mahaoniña arè, fa nanoeko; aa le akia, hitrifo añe i ajalahy Absalome.
22 And Ioab fell to the grounde on his face, and bowed himselfe, and thanked the King. Then Ioab sayde, This day thy seruant knoweth, that I haue found grace in thy sight, my lord the King, in that the King hath fulfilled the request of his seruant.
Nibabok’ an-dahara’e mb’an-tane t’Ioabe naho nidrakadrakake, vaho nañandriañe i mpanjakay, le hoe t’Ioabe: Fohi’ ty mpitoro’o henaneo te nahatrea fañisohañe am-pahaoniña’o ry talèko mpanjaka, ami’ty nanoe’ i mpanjakay i halalim-pitoro’ey.
23 And Ioab arose, and went to Geshur, and brought Absalom to Ierusalem.
Aa le niavotse t’Ioabe nimb’e Gesore mb’eo vaho nendese’e mb’e Ierosalaime mb’eo t’i Absalome.
24 And the King sayde, Let him turne to his owne house, and not see my face. So Absalom turned to his owne house, and saw not the Kings face.
Le hoe i mpanjakay: Ampitoliho mb’ añ’anjomba’e mb’eo re tsy hahatrea ty tareheko. Aa le nivìke mb’añ’ anjomba’e mb’eo t’i Absalome; vaho tsy niisa’e ty lahara’ i mpanjakay.
25 Nowe in all Israel there was none to be so much praysed for beautie as Absalom: from the sole of his foote euen to the toppe of his head there was no blemish in him.
Ie amy zao, tsy ia e Israele ao ty nahazo engeñe ami’ty faràm-binta’e naho tsy i Absalome, ie tsy nanan-kandra boak’ an-delam-pandia’e pak’ an-dengon’ añambone’e.
26 And when he polled his head, (for at euery yeeres ende he polled it: because it was too heauie for him, therefore he polled it) he weyghed the heare of his head at two hundreth shekels by the Kings weight.
Aa ie harate’e ty añambone’e—amy t’ie niharatse i añambone’ey am-pigadoñan-taoñe, amy te navesatse ama’e o maròi’eo, le nañitsifa’e—naho nandanja i maròi’ey le ni-roanjato amy fandanjam-panjakay.
27 And Absalom had three sonnes, and one daughter named Tamar, which was a fayre woman to looke vpon.
Nisamak’ ana-dahy telo t’i Absalome, naho anak’ ampela raike, natao Tamare ty añara’e; ampela soa vintañe.
28 So Absalom dwelt the space of two yeres in Ierusalem, and saw not the Kings face.
Aa le nimoneñe roe taoñe e Ierosalaime ao t’i Absalome vaho tsy niisa’e ty lahara’ i mpanjakay.
29 Therefore Absalom sent for Ioab to sende him to the King, but he would not come to him: and when he sent againe, he would not come.
Le nampihitrife’ i Absalome t’Ioabe, hañirake aze mb’ amy mpanjakay mb’eo; f’ie tsy nimete hiheo mb’ama’e; nampisangitrife’e fañindroe’e fe tsy nimete homb’eo.
30 Therefore he sayde vnto his seruants, Beholde, Ioab hath a fielde by my place, and hath barley therein: go, and set it on fire: and Absaloms seruants set the field on fire.
Aa le hoe re amo mpitoro’eo: Inao, marine i tetekoy ty tete’ Ioabe, akia ivaño afo. Aa le namiañ’ afo an-tete’e ao o mpitoro’ i Absalomeo.
31 Then Ioab arose, and came to Absalom vnto his house, and sayd vnto him, Wherefore haue thy seruants burnt my field with fire?
Niongak’ amy zao t’Ioabe, nimb’ añ’ anjomba’i Absalome mb’eo, nanao ty hoe ama’e: Aa vaho akore ty nanodora’ o mpitoro’oo i tetekoy?
32 And Absalom answered Ioab, Beholde, I sent for thee, saying, Come thou hither, and I wil send thee to the King for to say, Wherefore am I come from Geshur? It had bene better for me to haue bene there still: nowe therefore let mee see the Kings face: and if there be any trespasse in me, let him kill me.
Aa hoe ty natoi’ i Absalome Ioabe: Inao! toe nampihitrifeko ami’ty hoe: Mb’etoa, hañirahako azo amy mpanjakay, hanao ty hoe: Ino ty nimpoliako boake Gesore añe? Ndra kitra’e mbe nitambatse añe; aa ehe ampahaoniño ahy ty lahara’ i mpanjakay; aa lehe aman-kakeo raho, adono re hañoho-doza amako.
33 Then Ioab came to the King, and told him: and he called for Absalom, who came to the King, and bowed himselfe to the grounde on his face before the King, and the King kissed Absalom.
Niheo amy mpanjakay t’Ioabe, nitalily ama’e; aa le kinanji’e t’i Absalome naho nimb’amy mpanjakay mb’eo nidrodrètse mb’an-tane ty lahara’e añatrefa’ i mpanjakay, vaho norofa’ i mpanjakay t’i Absalome.
