2 Samoela 21
1 Ary nisy mosary telo taona misesy tamin’ ny andron’ i Davida, ary Davida nanontany tamin’ i Jehovah. Dia hoy Jehovah: Avy amin’ ny taranak’ i Saoly, izay meloka noho ny fandatsahan-drà izao, satria namono ny Gibeonita izy.
There was a famine in the days of David three years, year after year; and David sought the face of the LORD. The LORD said, "It is for Saul, and for his bloody house, because he put to death the Gibeonites."
2 Ary ny mpanjaka nampaka ny Gibeonita ka nanao taminy hoe (ny Gibeonita tsy mba isan’ ny Zanak’ Isiraely, fa sisa tamin’ ny Amorita, ary ny Zanak’ Isiraely efa nianiana taminy; nefa Saoly nitady izay hamelezany azy amin’ ny firehetan’ ny fitiavany ny Zanak’ Isiraely sy ny Joda),
The king called the Gibeonites, and spoke to them. (Now the Gibeonites were not of the children of Israel, but of the remnant of the Amorites; and the children of Israel had sworn to them: and Saul sought to kill them in his zeal for the children of Israel and Judah.)
3 ary hoy Davida tamin’ ny Gibeonita: Inona no hataoko ho anareo; ary amin’ inona no hanaovako fanavotana mba hitsofanareo rano ny lovan’ i Jehovah?
And David said to the Gibeonites, "What shall I do for you? And with what shall I make atonement, that you may bless the inheritance of the LORD?"
4 Dia hoy ny Gibeonita taminy: Izahay tsy mahazo mandray volafotsy na volamena amin’ i Saoly na amin’ ny taranany sady tsy mahazo mamono olona amin’ ny Isiraely Ary hoy izy: Koa ahoana ary no tianareo hataoko ho anareo?
The Gibeonites said to him, "It is no matter of silver or gold between us and Saul, or his house; neither is it for us to put any man to death in Israel." He said, "Whatever you say, that will I do for you."
5 Dia hoy izy ireo tamin’ ny mpanjaka: Ny lehilahy izay nandringana anay sy nikasa hamely anay ho ringana tsy hitoetra amin’ ny tanin’ ny Isiraely rehetra
They said to the king, "The man who consumed us, and who devised against us, that we should be destroyed from remaining in any of the borders of Israel,
6 no avelao hisy fito lahy amin’ ny zanany hatolotra anay hahantonay ho an’ i Jehovah ao Gibean’ i Saoly, ilay voafidin’ i Jehovah. Dia hoy ny mpanjaka: Hatolotro izy.
let seven men of his sons be delivered to us, and we will hang them up to the LORD in Gibeah of Saul, the chosen of the LORD." The king said, "I will give them."
7 Fa ny mpanjaka niaro an’ i Mefiboseta, zanak’ i Jonatana, zanak’ i Saoly, noho ny fianianana tamin’ i Jehovah nataon’ i Davida sy Jonatana, zanak’ i Saoly.
But the king spared Mippibaal, the son of Jonathan the son of Saul, because of the LORD's oath that was between them, between David and Jonathan the son of Saul.
8 Ary ny mpanjaka naka azy roa lahy, zanak’ i Rizpa, zanakavavin’ i Aia, izay naterany tamin’ i Saoly, dia Armony sy Mefiboseta, ary ny dimy lahy zanak’ i Mikala, zanakavavin’ i Saoly, izay naterany tamin’ i Adriela, zanak’ i Barzilay Meholatita,
But the king took the two sons of Rizpah the daughter of Aiah, whom she bore to Saul, Armoni and Mippibaal; and the five sons of Merob the daughter of Saul, whom she bore to Adriel the son of Barzillai the Meholathite.
9 dia natolony teo an-tànan’ ny Gibeonita ireo ka nahanton’ ireo teo amin’ ny havoana teo anatrehan’ i Jehovah; ary niara-maty izy fitolahy, samy novonoiny tamin’ ny niandohan’ ny fararano tamin’ ny voalohan’ ny taom-pijinjana ny vary hordea izy.
He delivered them into the hands of the Gibeonites, and they hanged them in the mountain before the LORD, and all seven of them fell together. They were put to death in the days of harvest, in the first days, at the beginning of barley harvest.
10 Ary Rizpa, zanakavavin’ i Aia, naka lamba fisaonana, dia novelariny teo amin’ ny vatolampy iny hitoerany hatramin’ ny niandohan’ ny taom-pijinjana ka ambara-pilatsaky ny orana avy any an-danitra tamin’ ny faty, ka tsy navelany hipetrahan’ ny voro-manidina ireo raha antoandro, na ny bibi-dia raha alina.
Rizpah the daughter of Aiah took sackcloth, and spread it for her on the rock, from the beginning of harvest until water was poured on them from the sky. She allowed neither the birds of the sky to rest on them by day, nor the animals of the field by night.
11 Ary nambara tamin’ i Davida izay nataon’ i Rizpa, zanakavavin’ i Aia, vaditsindranon’ i Saoly.
It was told David what Rizpah the daughter of Aiah, the secondary wife of Saul, had done.
12 Dia lasa Davida naka ny taolan’ i Saoly sy ny taolan’ i Jonatana zanany tany amin’ ny mponina tao Jabesi-gileada, izay nangalatra azy tao an-kalalahana any Beti-sana, ilay nanantonan’ ny Filistina azy tamin’ ny andro namonoan’ ny Filistina an’ i Saoly tao Gilboa.
David went and took the bones of Saul and the bones of Jonathan his son from the men of Jabesh Gilead, who had stolen them from the street of Beth Shan, where the Philistines had hanged them, in the day that the Philistines killed Saul in Gilboa;
13 Ary dia nentiny niakatra avy tany ny taolan’ i Saoly sy ny taolan’ i Jonatana zanany, ary nangoniny koa ny taolan’ ireo voahantona ireo.
and he brought up from there the bones of Saul and the bones of Jonathan his son: and they gathered the bones of those who were hanged.
14 Ary ny taolan’ i Saoly sy Jonatana zanany dia nalevin’ ny olona tao amin’ ny tanin’ ny Benjamina tao Zela, tao amin’ ny fasan’ i Kisy rainy; ary dia vitany izay rehetra nandidian’ ny mpanjaka. Ary nony efa vita izany, dia neken’ Andriamanitra ny fifonana natao ho an’ ny tany.
They buried the bones of Saul and Jonathan his son in the country of Benjamin in Zela, in the tomb of Kish his father: and they performed all that the king commanded. After that God was entreated for the land.
15 Ary niady indray ny Filistina sy ny Isiraely; ary Davida sy ny mpanompony izay nanaraka azy dia nidina ka niady tamin’ ny Filistina, ary reraka Davida.
The Philistines had war again with Israel; and David went down, and his servants with him, and fought against the Philistines, and David became exhausted.
16 Ary Jisbibenoba, izay isan’ ny taranaky ny Refaïta (ny lanjan’ ny lefony dia varahina telon-jato sekely), dia nitondra fiadiana vaovao ka nikasa hahafaty an’ i Davida.
And Dodo son of Joash, one of the descendants of the Raphah, captured him. His spear weighed three hundred bronze shekels, and he was girded with a new sword, and he thought he could kill David.
17 Fa Abisay, zanak’ i Zeroia, nanampy azy, dia namely ilay Filistina ka nahafaty azy. Ary tamin’ izay ny olon’ i Davida dia nianiana taminy ka nanao hoe: Tsy hiara-mivoaka aminay intsony ho amin’ ny ady ianao, fandrao hovonoinao ny fahazavan’ ny Isiraely.
But Abishai the son of Zeruiah helped him, and struck the Philistine, and killed him. Then the men of David swore, saying, "You must not go out to battle with us again, so that you do not extinguish the lamp of Israel."
18 Ary nony afaka izany, dia nisy ady indray amin’ ny Filistina teo Goba, ary Sibeka Hosatita nahafaty an’ i Safa, izay isan’ ny taranaky ny Refaïta.
It came to pass after this, that there was again war with the Philistines at Gezer. Then Sibbekai the Hushathite killed Saph, a descendant of the Raphah.
19 Ary nisy ady indray koa tamin’ ny Filistina teo Goba, ary Elanana, zanak’ i Jare-oregima Betlehemita, namono an’ i Goliata Gatita, izay nanan-jaran-defona tahaka ny vodi-tenon’ ny mpanenona.
There was again war with the Philistines at Gob; and Elhanan the son of Jair the Bethlehemite killed the brother of Goliath the Gittite, the staff of whose spear was like a weaver's beam.
20 Ary nisy ady koa tao Gata, ary nisy lehilahy vaventy, izay enin-drantsana, ka dia efatra amby roa-polo no isan’ ny rantsan-tànany sy ny rantsan-tongony, ary izy koa dia mba teraky ny Refaïta.
There was again war at Gath, where there was a man of great stature, who had on every hand six fingers, and on every foot six toes, four and twenty in number; and he also was born to the giant.
21 Ary izy nihaika ny Isiraely, ka matin’ i Jonatana, zanak’ i Simea, rahalahin’ i Davida.
When he defied Israel, Jonathan the son of Shimeah, David's brother, killed him.
22 Ireo efatra ireo no teraky ny Refaïta teo Gata, ka matin’ ny tànan’ i Davida sy ny tanan’ ny mpanompony avokoa ireo.
These four were born to the giant in Gath; and they fell by the hand of David, and by the hand of his servants.
