< II Samuel 16 >

1 Idi nakaadayo bassit ni David iti tapaw ti turod, sinabat isuna ni Siba nga adipen ni Mefiboset nga addaan iti agasawa a nasilyaan nga asno a nagkarga iti 200 a tinapay, 100 a karaay ti ubas, 100 a kapetpet a bunga ti igos, ken maysa a supot a lalat nga arak.
And when David was a little past the top of the hill, behold, Ziba the servant of Mephibosheth met him, with a couple of asses saddled, and upon them two hundred loaves of bread, and an hundred bunches of raisins, and an hundred of summer fruits, and a bottle of wine.
2 Kinuna iti ari ken Siba, “Apay nga inyegmo dagitoy a banbanag?” Simmungbat ni Siba, “Dagiti asno ket pagluganan dagiti sangakabbalayan ti ari, ti tinapay ken dagiti kankanen a naaramid manipud iti bunga ti igos ket agpaay a kanen dagiti agtutubo a lallaki a kaduam, ken ti arak ket inumen iti siasinoman a matalimudaw idiay laet-ang.”
And the king said unto Ziba, What mean you by these? And Ziba said, The asses be for the king's household to ride on; and the bread and summer fruit for the young men to eat; and the wine, that such as be faint in the wilderness may drink.
3 Kinuna ti ari, “Sadino ti ayan iti apoko ti apom?” Simmungbat ni Siba iti ari, “Nagbati isuna idiay Jerusalem, ta kunana, 'Ita nga aldaw, isubli iti balay ti Israel ti pagarian ti amak kaniak.'”
And the king said, And where is your master's son? And Ziba said unto the king, Behold, he abides at Jerusalem: for he said, To day shall the house of Israel restore me the kingdom of my father.
4 Ket kinuna ti ari kenni Siba, “Adtoy, kukuamon ita dagiti amin a kukua ni Mefiboset.” Simmungbat ni Siba, “Agrukbabak a sipapakumbaba kenka, apok nga ari. Makasarakak koma iti pabor iti imatangmo.”
Then said the king to Ziba, Behold, your are all that pertained unto Mephibosheth. And Ziba said, I humbly plead to you that I may find grace in your sight, my lord, O king.
5 Idi nakadanon ni David idiay Bahurim, rimmuar sadiay ti maysa a lalaki a nagtaud iti puli ni Saul, ti nagana ket Simei a putot a lalaki ni Gera. Rimmuar isuna nga agilunlunod bayat iti pannagnana.
And when king David came to Bahurim, behold, thence came out a man of the family of the house of Saul, whose name was Shimei, the son of Gera: he came forth, and cursed still as he came.
6 Binatubatona ni David ken dagiti amin nga opisyal iti ari, iti laksid ti kaadda ti armada ken dagiti guardia nga adda iti kannawan ken kannigid iti ari.
And he cast stones at David, and at all the servants of king David: and all the people and all the mighty men were on his right hand and on his left.
7 Nagpukpukaw a nagilunlunod ni Simei, “Umadayoka, pumanawka ditoy, sika a kriminal, sika a mammapatay!
And thus said Shimei when he cursed, Come out, come out, you bloody man, and you man of Belial:
8 Binalesnakayo amin ni Yahweh gapu iti dara ti pamilia ni Saul, a makinsaad iti pagturturayam. Impaiama ni Yahweh ti pagarian kenni Absalom nga anakmo. Ket ita nadadaelka gapu ta maysaka a mammapatay a tao.”
The LORD has returned upon you all the blood of the house of Saul, in whose position you have reigned; and the LORD has delivered the kingdom into the hand of Absalom your son: and, behold, you are taken in your mischief, because you are a bloody man.
9 Ket kinuna ni Abisai a putot a lalaki ni Zeruyas iti ari, “Apay koma ngay nga idadanes daytoy a natay nga aso ti apok nga ari? Pangngaasim ta palubosannak ta innak putden ti ulona.”
Then said Abishai the son of Zeruiah unto the king, Why should this dead dog curse my lord the king? let me go over, I pray you, and take off his head.
10 Ngem kinuna ti ari, “Ania koma ti pakibiangak kadakayo, a putot ni Zeruyas? Nalabit nga ilunlunodnak gapu ta imbaga ni Yahweh kenkuana, 'Ilunodmo ni David.’ Siasino ngarud ti makaibaga kenkuana, 'Apay nga ilunlunodmo ti ari?'”
And the king said, What have I to do with you, all of you sons of Zeruiah? so let him curse, because the LORD has said unto him, Curse David. Who shall then say, Wherefore have you done so?
11 Isu a kinuna ni David kenni Abisai ken kadagiti amin nga adipenna, “Kitaem, ti anakko a lalaki a naipasngay manipud iti bagik, ket kayatna a pukawen ti biagko. Saan kadi nga ad-adda ita a tarigagayan daytoy a Benjamita ti pannakadadaelko? Bay-anyo isuna nga agilunod, ta binilin isuna ni Yahweh a mangaramid iti dayta.
And David said to Abishai, and to all his servants, Behold, my son, which came out of my bowels, seeks my life: how much more now may this Benjamite do it? let him alone, and let him curse; for the LORD has bidden him.
12 Nalabit a kitaento ni Yahweh ti panagtuok a naipalak-am kaniak, ket supapakannak iti naimbag gapu iti panangilunlunodna kaniak ita nga aldaw.”
It may be that the LORD will look on mine affliction, and that the LORD will requite me good for his cursing this day.
13 Nagdalliasat ngarud ni David ken dagiti tattaona iti dalan, kabayatan nga adda ni Simei idi iti asidegna iti ngato iti bakras ti turod nga agilunlunod ken agipurpuruak iti tapok ken batbato kenkuana bayat ti pannagnana.
And as David and his men went by the way, Shimei went along on the hill's side opposite to him, and cursed as he went, and threw stones at him, and cast dust.
14 Ket nabannog ti ari ken dagiti amin a tattao a kimmuyog kenkuana, ket naginana isuna idi simmardengda ta rabiin.
And the king, and all the people that were with him, came weary, and refreshed themselves there.
15 Kasta met a napan idiay Jerusalem ni Absalom ken dagiti amin a tattao ti Israel a kaduana, kaduana ni Ahitofel.
And Absalom, and all the people the men of Israel, came to Jerusalem, and Ahithophel with him.
16 Naaramid idi a ni Cusai nga Arkita a gayyem ni David ket napan kenni Absalom, kinuna ni Cusai kenni Absalom, “Agbiag ti ari! Agbiag ti ari!”
And it came to pass, when Hushai the Archite, David's friend, was come unto Absalom, that Hushai said unto Absalom, God save the king, God save the king.
17 Kinuna ni Absalom kenni Cusai, “Kastoy kadi ti kinapudnom iti gayyemmo? Apay a saanka a simmurot kenkuana?”
And Absalom said to Hushai, Is this your kindness to your friend? why went you not with your friend?
18 Kinuna ni Cusai kenni Absalom,”Saan! Ngem ketdi, ti tao a pinili ni Yahweh ken dagitoy a tattao ken dagiti amin a lallaki iti Israel, dayta a tao ti pakaibilangakto, ket makipagnaedakto kenkuana.
And Hushai said unto Absalom, Nay; but whom the LORD, and this people, and all the men of Israel, choose, his will I be, and with him will I abide.
19 Ken, siasino koma ti rumbeng a pagserbiak? Saan kadi a rumbeng nga agserbiak iti imatang iti anakna? Kas iti panagserbik iti imatang iti amam, agserbiak iti imatangmo.”
And again, whom should I serve? should I not serve in the presence of his son? as I have served in your father's presence, so will I be in your presence.
20 Kinuna ngarud ni Absalom kenni Ahitofel, “Balakadannakami no ania ti rumbeng nga aramidenmi.”
Then said Absalom to Ahithophel, Give counsel among you what we shall do.
21 Simmungbat ni Ahitofel kenni Absalom, “Inka ket kaiddaem dagiti tagabu nga assawa ni amam nga imbatina a mangaywan iti palasio, ket mangngegto ti amin nga Israel a nagbalinka a kabusor ti amam. Ket pumigsanto dagiti ima dagiti pasurotmo.”
And Ahithophel said unto Absalom, Go in unto your father's concubines, which he has left to keep the house; and all Israel shall hear that you are abhorred of your father: then shall the hands of all that are with you be strong.
22 Isu a nangbangonda iti tolda a maipaay kenni Absalom iti tuktok ti palasio, ket iti imatang dagiti amin nga Israel, kinaidda ni Absalom dagiti tagabu nga assawa ni David a kinabbalayna.
So they spread Absalom a tent upon the top of the house; and Absalom went in unto his father's concubines in the sight of all Israel.
23 Ita, dagiti balakad ni Ahitofel kadagidi nga al-aldaw ket kasla nangngeg ti maysa a tao manipud iti mismo a ngiwat ti Dios. Kasta ti panangkita ni David ken Absalom kadagiti amin a balakad ni Ahitofel.
And the counsel of Ahithophel, which he counselled in those days, was as if a man had enquired at the oracle of God: so was all the counsel of Ahithophel both with David and with Absalom.
