< 2 Samuel 4 >

1 When Saul’s son Ishbosheth heard that Abner had been killed at Hebron, [he realized that he might also be killed]. He became discouraged, and all the Israeli people (trembled/became afraid).
Hagi Abna'ma Hebroni kumate'ma fri'nea nanekema Soli nemofo Is-boseti'ma nentahigeno'a, hanave'a omnegeno agra tusi koro nehige'za, Israeli vahe'mo'za zamagogogu hu'naze.
2 Ishbosheth had two officers who were leaders of groups that raided other villages. [They were brothers; ] their names were Baanah and Rechab, sons of Rimmon from Beeroth [town] in the tribe of Benjamin. Beeroth is in the area that had [been assigned to] the tribe of Benjamin.
Hagi Soli nemofo Is-boseti sondia vahepima ugota huneke rohu'ma vahe'ma re'zama vanoma nehaza sondia vahete kva hu'na'a netre zanagi'a Bana'ene Rekapuke. Hagi zanagra Beroti kumate Benzameni nagapinti netrenkike Rimoni mofavre mani'na'e.
3 But the people of Beeroth had fled to Gittaim [town], and they still live there.
Na'ankure Beroti mopa agafa vahe'mo'za fre'za vu'za Gitaimu kumate kraga vahe umani'nazageno, eno ama knarera ehanati'ne.
4 Saul’s son Jonathan had a son named Mephibosheth. When Mephibosheth was five years old, Saul and Jonathan died in the battle. When people brought that news from Jezreel, Mephibosheth’s nursemaid picked him up and ran away. She ran very fast, with the result that she dropped him, and his legs became crippled.
Hagi Soli nemofo Jonatani'a mago mofavre ante'neana, ana mofavremofo agamo'a haviza hu'ne. Hagi ana mofavremo'a 5fu'a kafu nehige'za Soline Jonataninema zanahaza zanagenkea ehanatigeno, mofavrema kegava nehia a'mo'a ana mofavrea avreno fre'ne. Hianagi ana mofavrema avreno nefreno ome ahentegeno, ana risemofo tarega aga hantagi'ne. Hagi ana rise'mofo agi'a Mefiboseti'e.
5 One day, Rechab and Baanah left [their home] to go to Ishbosheth’s house. They arrived there about noontime, when Ishbosheth was taking his midday nap.
Hagi mago zupa ferura Is-boseti'a noma'afi maseno mani'negeno, Beroti kumateti Rimoni mofavremoke Banake Rekapukea ome ke'naku vu'na'e.
6 The woman who was the doorkeeper was sifting wheat. While doing that, she became sleepy, and fell asleep. So Rechab and his brother Baanah were able to creep in quietly.
Hagi zanagra witima erinaku'ma hiaza huke nomofona agu'afinka ufre'ne Is-bosetina kazinteti amupi ome rakeno fri'ne. Hagi vahe'mo'a ozanageama'a zanagra ananke akafrike agenopa e'nerike, ana kenagera atiramike frene vu'na'e.
7 They entered Ishbosheth’s bedroom, where he was sleeping. They killed him [with their swords] and cut off his head. They carried his head and walked all night through the Jordan [River] Valley.
Hagi zanagrama nompima ufrenema ka'ana agra tafe'are mase'negene ome negeke, kazina amupi reke ahe nefrike agenopa akafrike erike, ana kenageke Jodani agupofi freke vu'na'e.
8 They took the head of Ishbosheth to David at Hebron. They said to him, “Here is the head of Ishbosheth, the son of your enemy Saul, who tried to kill you. Your majesty, today Yahweh has allowed you to get revenge on Saul and his descendants!”
Hagi ana agenopa erike Hebroni kumate Devitinte uhanati'ne anage hu'na'e, Ha'ma regante'nea ne' Soli nemofo Is-boseti agenopa amanagi ko. Hagi menina Ra Anumzamo'a kagrima ha'ma hugante'naza vahera rankva nimoka kaza huno nona huzamante.
9 But David replied to them, “Yahweh is the one who has rescued me from all my troubles. And just as surely as Yahweh lives, what I am now saying is also true.
Hianagi Beroti kumateti ne' Rimoni ne'mofavrerarena Rekapune Banakiznia Deviti'a anage huno kenona huzanante'ne, Maka hazenkema nagrite'ma ne-egeno'a mani'nea Ra Anumzamoke naguranevazie.
10 When a messenger came to Ziklag and told me ‘Saul is dead!’ and he thought that the news that he was bringing to me was good news, I seized him and [commanded one of my soldiers to] kill him. That was the reward I gave to him for his news!
Hagi kora mago ne'mo'a Solima fri'nea nanekea erino eme nenasamino, agesama antahiana knare naneke nasamigahie huno antahi muse hu'neanagi, nagra ana nera Ziklaki kumate ahe fri'noe. Ana nanekema eme nasamia zamofonte mizama'a ami'noe.
11 So because you two evil men murdered a man who is (innocent/has done nothing wrong) when he was sleeping on his bed in his own house, I will do something worse to you. I will surely [RHQ] get revenge on you two for murdering [MTY] him, and (wipe you/cause you to disappear) from the earth!”
Hagi mago hazenke'ama omne fatgo ne'ma noma'afima masenegeno ome ahe fria hazenke vahera, na'a huntegahue? Ana nona'a nagra tanahe frinugeta ama mopafina omanigaha'e.
12 Then, following David’s orders, his soldiers killed the two men, and cut off their hands and their feet, and hung their bodies (OR, their hands and feet) [on a pole] near the pool at Hebron. But they took the head of Ishbosheth and buried it [respectfully] in the tomb of Abner, there at Hebron.
Huno nehuno Deviti'a agranema nemaniza sondia vene'ne huzamantege'za, ana netrena zanahe nefri'za zanagia zanazana nekafri'za zanavufga'a eri'za Hebronia mago tiru me'nea ankenare ome hantinte'naze. Hianagi Is-boseti aseni'a eri'za Abnama asente'naza havegampi Hebroni ome asente'naze.
