2 Samoela 19

1 Sinaontsy am’ Ioabe ty hoe: Inay! mirovetse naho mandala i Absalome ty mpanjaka.

And it was told Joab, Behold, the king weeps and mourns for Absalom.

2 Aa le nifotetse ho fandalàñe i fandreketañey, kanao jinanji’ ondatio amy andro zay ty hoe, Mirovetse i ana’ey i mpanjakay.

And the victory that day was turned into mourning unto all the people: for the people heard say that day how the king was grieved for his son.

3 Aa le ninankañe avao ondatio t’ie nimoak’ amy rovay, manahake ty fimeñara’ ondaty miponiotse añ’alio.

And the people got them by stealth that day into the city, as people being ashamed steal away when they flee in battle.

4 Sinaro’ i mpanjakay ty lahara’e, vaho nikoaike ty fangoihoy nanao ty hoe: O Absalome anako, O Absalome amori­ko, anako!

But the king covered his face, and the king cried with a loud voice, O my son Absalom, O Absalom, my son, my son!

5 Aa le nimoak’ amy trañoy t’Ioabe mb’amy mpanjakay ao, nanao ty hoe: Nampisalare’o ty lahara’ o mpitoro’o iabio, ie namoe ay ho azo naho ho ami’ty fiai’ o ana-dahi’oo naho o anak’ ampela’oo naho ty fiai’ o tañanjomba’oo vaho ty fiai’ o sakeza’oo;

And Joab came into the house to the king, and said, You have shamed this day the faces of all your servants, which this day have saved your life, and the lives of your sons and of your daughters, and the lives of your wives, and the lives of your concubines;

6 amy te kokoa’o o malaiñ’ azoo, naho heje’o o mikoko azoo. Fa nitseize’o anindroany te tsy vente’e ama’o o roandriañeo naho o mpitoroñeo; le rendreko androany t’ie niveloñe t’i Absalome vaho nikoromake iaby zahay le ho nifale rehe.

In that you love your enemies, and hate your friends. For you have declared this day, that you regard neither princes nor servants: for this day I perceive, that if Absalom had lived, and all we had died this day, then it had pleased you well.

7 Aa le miongaha, miavota naho misaontsia ami’ty arofo’ o mpitoro’oo; fa ifantàko am’ Iehovà, naho tsy iavota’o, leo raik’ am’ondatio tsy hialeñe ama’o atoy; vaho handikoara’ ze haratiañe nifetsak’ ama’o ampara’ ty nahajalahy azo am-para’ te henane ty haloloañe hizò azo.

Now therefore arise, go forth, and speak comfortably unto your servants: for I swear by the LORD, if you go not forth, there will not tarry one with you this night: and that will be worse unto you than all the evil that befell you from your youth until now.

8 Aa le niongake t’i Mpanjaka, niambesatse an-dalambey eo vaho natalily am’ondaty iabio ty hoe: Inao! miambesatse an-dalambey eo i mpanjakay; le sindre niheo añatrefa’ i mpanjakay ondatio, ie fa songa nandrombake ty kiboho’e t’Israele.

Then the king arose, and sat in the gate. And they told unto all the people, saying, Behold, the king does sit in the gate. And all the people came before the king: for Israel had fled every man to his tent.

9 Niampohek’ amy zao ze hene ondatim-pifokoa’ Israele, fa hoe ty asa’ iareo: I mpanjakay ty nañafak’ an-tika am-pità’ o rafelahin-tikañeo, naho ie ty nandrombak’ an-tika am-pità’ o nte-Pilistio; ie amy zao fa nibañe añe t’i Absalome niakatse ty tane toy,

And all the people were at strife throughout all the tribes of Israel, saying, The king saved us out of the hand of our enemies, and he delivered us out of the hand of the Philistines; and now he is fled out of the land for Absalom.

10 ie nihomak’ an-kotakotak’ ao i Absalome norizan-tika ho mpifehe antikañey. Aa vaho akore arè te tsy minday saontsy amy fampipoliañe i mpanjakaiy tika?

And Absalom, whom we anointed over us, is dead in battle. Now therefore why speak all of you not a word of bringing the king back?

11 Fe nampañitrike ty hoe amy Tsadoke naho amy Abiatare mpisoroñe t’i Davide: Misaontsia amo roandria’ Iehodao ty hoe: Manao akore te inahareo ro fara’e manese i mpanjakay holy mb’ añ’ anjomba’ey?—Amy te fa nivotrak’ amy mpanjakay ty saontsi’ Israele iaby t’ie hasese’ iareo mb’ añ’anjomba’e—

And king David sent to Zadok and to Abiathar the priests, saying, Speak unto the elders of Judah, saying, Why are all of you the last to bring the king back to his house? seeing the speech of all Israel has come to the king, even to his house.

12 longoko nahareo naho taolako vaho nofoko, aa vaho akore t’ie sehanga’e amy fampipoliañe i mpanjakaiy?

All of you are my brethren, all of you are my bones and my flesh: wherefore then are all of you the last to bring back the king?

13 Le ano ty hoe amy Amasà: Tsy taolako ama’ nofoko v’iheo? Aa le hanoen’ Añahare amako, naho mandikoatse, naho tsy ho mpifeleke i valobohòkey hisolo Ioabe rehe.

And say all of you to Amasa, Are you not of my bone, and of my flesh? God do so to me, and more also, if you be not captain of the host before me continually in the room of Joab.

14 Le nampiondrehe’e ty arofo ze hene’ ondati’ Iehoda hoe t’ie arofo’ ondaty raike; aa le nañiraha’ iereo i mpanjakay: Mimpolia rehe naho o mpitoro’o iabio.

And he bowed the heart of all the men of Judah, even as the heart of one man; so that they sent this word unto the king, Return you, and all your servants.

15 Aa le nimpoly i mpanjakay, nigodañe mb’ am’ Iordaney mb’eo. Niheo mb’e Gilgale mb’eo t’Iehoda, hifanalaka amy mpanjakay, hampitsahe’ iareo am’Iordaney i mpanjakay.

So the king returned, and came to Jordan. And Judah came to Gilgal, to go to meet the king, to conduct the king over Jordan.

16 Nihitrike naho nindre nizotso amo nte-Iehodao t’i Simeý ana’ i Gerà, nte Beniamine, boake Bakorime hifañaoñe amy Davide mpanjaka.

And Shimei the son of Gera, a Benjamite, which was of Bahurim, hasted and came down with the men of Judah to meet king David.

17 Nindre ama’e mb’eo t’i nte-Beniamine arivo miharo amy Tsibà mpitoro’ ty anjomba’ i Saole, reketse ty ana-dahi’e folo-lim’ amby, naho ty mpitoro’e roapolo. Nihitrihitry mb’am’ Iordaney mb’eo iereo aolo’ i mpanjakay.

And there were a thousand men of Benjamin with him, and Ziba the servant of the house of Saul, and his fifteen sons and his twenty servants with him; and they went over Jordan before the king.

18 Nibelobelo eo avao iereo nampitsake ty anjomba’ i mpanjakay, naho hitoloñe amy ze atao’e soa ampivazohoa’e. Niba­bok’ añatrefa’ i mpanjakay t’i Simeý ana’ i Gerà ie fa hitsake Iordaney.

And there went over a ferry boat to carry over the king's household, and to do what he thought good. And Shimei the son of Gera fell down before the king, as he was come over Jordan;

19 Le hoe re amy mpanjakay: Ehe te tsy hanan-kabò amako ty talèko; ko tiahi’o abey i haloloañe nanoe’ ty mpitoro’o amy andro niavota’ ty talèko mpanjaka am’ Ierosalaimey, ehe ko tana’ i mpanjakay añ’arofo’e ao izay.

And said unto the king, Let not my lord impute iniquity unto me, neither do you remember that which your servant did perversely the day that my lord the king went out of Jerusalem, that the king should take it to his heart.

20 Toe fohi’ ty mpitoro’o t’ie nanao hakeo; aa le ingo! zaho ty nizotso mb’etoa valoha’e amy anjomba’ Iosefe iabiy hifanalaka amy talèko mpanjakay.

For your servant does know that I have sinned: therefore, behold, I am come the first this day of all the house of Joseph to go down to meet my lord the king.

21 Fe hoe ty navale’ i Abisaý ana’ i Tseroià aze: Tsy mone havetrake hao t’i Simeý, ty amy raha zay, ie namàtse i noriza’ Iehovày?

But Abishai the son of Zeruiah answered and said, Shall not Shimei be put to death for this, because he cursed the LORD's anointed?

22 Le hoe t’i Davide: Hatako akore nahareo ana’ i Tseroiào, t’ie hifandrafelahy amako henaneo? hohofan-doza hao t’indaty e Israele te anito? tsy apotako hao te mpanjaka’ Israele raho androany?

And David said, What have I to do with you, all of you sons of Zeruiah, that all of you should this day be adversaries unto me? shall there any man be put to death this day in Israel? for do not I know that I am this day king over Israel?

23 Le hoe i mpanjakay amy Simeý, Tsy ho mate ‘niheo. Le nifanta ama’e i mpanjakay.

Therefore the king said unto Shimei, You shall not die. And the king swore unto him.

24 Nizotso hifanalaka amy mpanjakay ka t’i Mefibosete ana’ i Saole; tsy niha­mine’e o fandia’eo, tsy niharate’e i somo’ey, tsy nisasà’e o siki’eo, boak’ amy andro niavota’ i mpanjakaiy ampara’ ty nimpolia’e am-panin­tsiñañe.

And Mephibosheth the son of Saul came down to meet the king, and had neither dressed his feet, nor trimmed his beard, nor washed his clothes, from the day the king departed until the day he came again in peace.

25 Ie amy zao, naho fa nivotrake e Iero­salaime ao re hifanalaka amy mpanjakay, le nanoa’ i mpanjakay ty hoe: Aa vaho akore te tsy nindre amako rehe Mefibosete?

And it came to pass, when he was come to Jerusalem to meet the king, that the king said unto him, Wherefore went not you with me, Mephibosheth?

26 Le hoe ty natoi’e: Ry talèko, mpanjakao, namañahy ahy i mpitorokoy; fa hoe ty mpitoro’o: ampidiaño borìke hionjonako mb’amy mpanjakay mb’eo; ami’ty hakepefa’ o mpitoro’oo.

And he answered, My lord, O king, my servant deceived me: for your servant said, I will saddle me an ass, that I may ride thereon, and go to the king; because your servant is lame.

27 te mone nifosae’e amy talèko mpanjakay o mpitoro’oo; fe hoe anjelin’ Añahare ty talèko mpanjaka; aa le ano amako ze atao’o soa am-pihaino’o.

And he has slandered your servant unto my lord the king; but my lord the king is as an angel of God: do therefore what is good in your eyes.

28 Fa toe mañeva ho mate am-pitàn-talèko mpanjaka ty anjomban-draeko iaby; fe najado’o amo mpikama am-pandambaña’oo ty mpitoro’o. Aa ino ty ho zòko? vaho ino ty hitoreovako amy mpanjakay?

For all of my father's house were but dead men before my lord the king: yet did you set your servant among them that did eat at your own table. What right therefore have I yet to cry any more unto the king?

29 Le hoe i mpanjakay ama’e: Ino ty mbe talilie’o o azoo? Hoe raho: ifanjarao’ areo amy Tsibà i taney.

And the king said unto him, Why speak you any more of your matters? I have said, You and Ziba divide the land.

30 Le hoe t’i Mefibosete amy mpanjakay, Apoho ho rambese’e iaby kanao nitampoly am-panintsiñañe añ’anjomba’e ty talèko mpanjaka.

And Mephibosheth said unto the king, Yea, let him take all, forasmuch as my lord the king has come again in peace unto his own house.

31 Nizotso boake Rogelime t’i Barzilaý nte-Gilade vaho nitsake Iordaney ho a i Mpanjakay hanese aze hitsake Iordaney.

And Barzillai the Gileadite came down from Rogelim, and went over Jordan with the king, to conduct him over Jordan.

32 Ondaty bey t’i Barzilaý, toe valompolo taoñe; ie ty namahañe i mpanjakay amy nipalira’e e Mahanaimey; ondaty jabajaba.

Now Barzillai was a very aged man, even fourscore years old: and he had provided the king of sustenance while he lay at Mahanaim; for he was a very great man.

33 Le hoe i mpanjakay amy Barzilaý: Antao hiharo fitsak’ amako vaho ho fahanako e Ierosalaime ao.

And the king said unto Barzillai, Come you over with me, and I will feed you with me in Jerusalem.

34 Le hoe t’i Barzilaý amy mpanjakay: Fire ty andro’ o taokoo t’ie hionjomb’e Ierosalaime mb’eo mindre amy mpanjakay?

And Barzillai said unto the king, How long have I to live, that I should go up with the king unto Jerusalem?

35 Valopolo taon-draho androany; mb’e hahafijoboñe ty soa ami’ty raty hao? ho rey ty mpitoro’o tave hao ze hane’e ndra nome’e? mbe hahafi­tsanoñe ty fiarañanaña’ ondaty mibeko ndra rakemba misabo hao? aa manao akore arè te ho kilankañe mavesatse amy talèko mpanjakay ty mpitoro’o?

I am this day fourscore years old: and can I discern between good and evil? can your servant taste what I eat or what I drink? can I hear any more the voice of singing men and singing women? wherefore then should your servant be yet a burden unto my lord the king?

36 Hindre hitsake Iordaney amy mpanjakay avao o mpitoro’oo. Ino ty hanambeza’ i mpanjakay ahy hoe izay?

Your servant will go a little way over Jordan with the king: and why should the king recompense it me with such a reward?

37 Ehe adono himpoly ty mpitoro’o, hivetrake an-drovako marine’ ty kiborin-drae naho reneko ao. Fe ingo ty mpitoro’o Kimhame, angao hampitsahe’o aze ty talèko mpanjaka le ano ama’e ze satrin’arofo’o.

Let your servant, I pray you, turn back again, that I may die in mine own city, and be buried by the grave of my father and of my mother. But behold your servant Chimham; let him go over with my lord the king; and do to him what shall seem good unto you.

38 Aa le hoe i mpanjakay: Hindre hitsak’ amako t’i Kimhame, le hanoeko ama’e ze atao’o hahasoa; ndra inoñ’ inoñe ty ho paia’o amako le hanoeko.

And the king answered, Chimham shall go over with me, and I will do to him that which shall seem good unto you: and whatsoever you shall require of me, that will I do for you.

39 Nitsake Iordaney ondaty iabio, ni­tsake ka i mpanjakay naho norofa’ i mpanjakay t’i Barzilaý naho nitata aze vaho nimpoly mb’ an-toe’e añe.

And all the people went over Jordan. And when the king was come over, the king kissed Barzillai, and blessed him; and he returned unto his own place.

40 Aa le nigodam-b’e Gilgale i mpanjakay, le nindre ama’e nits­ake mb’eo t’i Kimhame vaho songa nampi­tsake i mpanjakay o nte-Iehodao naho ty vaki’ o ana’ Israeleo.

Then the king went on to Gilgal, and Chimham went on with him: and all the people of Judah conducted the king, and also half the people of Israel.

41 Niheo mb’amy mpanjakay o ana’ Israele iabio, nanao ty hoe amy mpanjakay: Manao akore te nampikametse azo o roahalahi’ay nte-Iehodao, naho nampitsahe’ iereo Iordaney i mpanjakay rekets’ o añ’ an­jomba’eo vaho ondati’ i Davide iabio?

And, behold, all the men of Israel came to the king, and said unto the king, Why have our brethren the men of Judah stolen you away, and have brought the king, and his household, and all David's men with him, over Jordan?

42 Le hoe ty natoi’ o nte-Iehoda iabio amo ana’ Israeleo: Amy te marine filongoañe ama’ay i mpanjakay; aa le ino ty mahabosek’ anahareo amo raha zao? nikama ami’ty drala’ i mpanjakay hao zahay? Nitambezeñe hao?

And all the men of Judah answered the men of Israel, Because the king is near of kin to us: wherefore then be all of you angry for this matter? have we eaten at all of the king's cost? or has he given us any gift?

43 Le hoe ty natoi’ o ana’ Israeleo o nte-Iehodao, Manañe anjara folo amy mpanjakay zahay aa le ambone’ ty anahareo ty zo’ay amy Davide; akore arè ty añinjea’ areo anay, ie tsy niera ama’ay heike hampipoliañe i mpanjakan-tikañey? Mbe nasiake te amy saontsi’ o nte-Israleoy ty enta’ o nte-Iehodao.

And the men of Israel answered the men of Judah, and said, We have ten parts in the king, and we have also more right in David than all of you: why then did all of you despise us, that our advice should not be first had in bringing back our king? And the words of the men of Judah were fiercer than the words of the men of Israel.
