2 Samuel 21
1 Ìyàn kan sì mú lọ́jọ́ Dafidi ní ọdún mẹ́ta, láti ọdún dé ọdún; Dafidi sì béèrè lọ́dọ̀ Olúwa, Olúwa sì wí pé, “Nítorí ti Saulu ni, àti nítorí ilé rẹ̀ tí ó kún fún ẹ̀jẹ̀, nítorí pé ó pa àwọn ará Gibeoni.”
There was a famine in David's time for three years in a row, and David sought the face of Yahweh. So Yahweh said, “This famine is on you because of Saul and his murderous family, because he put the Gibeonites to death.”
2 Ọba sì pe àwọn ará Gibeoni, ó sì bá wọn sọ̀rọ̀; àwọn ará Gibeoni kì í ṣe ọ̀kan nínú àwọn ọmọ Israẹli, ṣùgbọ́n wọ́n jẹ́ àwọn tí ó kù nínú àwọn ọmọ Amori; àwọn ọmọ Israẹli sì ti búra fún wọn, Saulu sì ń wá ọ̀nà àti pa wọ́n ní ìtara rẹ̀ fún àwọn ọmọ Israẹli àti Juda.
Now the Gibeonites were not from the people of Israel; they were from what remained of the Amorites. The people of Israel had sworn not to kill them, but Saul tried to kill them all anyway in his zeal for the people of Israel and Judah.
3 Dafidi sì bi àwọn ará Gibeoni léèrè pé, “Kí ni èmi ó ṣe fún un yín? Àti kín ni èmi ó fi ṣe ètùtù, kí ẹ̀yin lè súre fún ilẹ̀ ìní Olúwa?”
So King David called together the Gibeonites and said to them, “What should I do for you? How can I make atonement, so that you may bless the people of Yahweh, who inherit his goodness and promises?”
4 Àwọn ará Gibeoni sì wí fún un pé, “Kì í ṣe ọ̀rọ̀ fàdákà tàbí wúrà láàrín wa àti Saulu tàbí ìdílé rẹ̀, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni a kò sì fẹ́ kí ẹ pa ẹnìkan ní Israẹli.” Dafidi sì wí pé, “Èyí tí ẹ̀yin bá wí ni èmi ó ṣe?”
The Gibeonites responded to him, “It is not a matter of silver or gold between us and Saul or his family. In the same way it is not for us to put to death any man in Israel.” David replied, “What are you saying that I should do for you?”
5 Wọ́n sì wí fún ọba pé, “Ọkùnrin tí ó run wá, tí ó sì rò láti pa wá rẹ́ ki a má kù níbikíbi nínú gbogbo agbègbè Israẹli.
They answered the king, “The man who tried to kill us all, who schemed against us, so that we are now destroyed and have no place within the borders of Israel—
6 Mú ọkùnrin méje nínú àwọn ọmọ rẹ̀ fún wá, àwa ó sì so wọ́n rọ̀ fún Olúwa ní Gibeah ti Saulu ẹni tí Olúwa ti yàn.” Ọba sì wí pé, “Èmi ó fi wọ́n fún yín.”
let seven men from his descendants be handed over to us, and we will hang them before Yahweh in Gibeah of Saul, the one chosen by Yahweh.” So the king said, “I will give them to you.”
7 Ṣùgbọ́n ọba dá Mefiboṣeti sí, ọmọ Jonatani, ọmọ Saulu, nítorí ìbúra Olúwa tí ó wà láàrín Dafidi àti Jonatani ọmọ Saulu.
But the king spared Mephibosheth son of Jonathan son of Saul, because of Yahweh's oath between them, between David and Jonathan son of Saul.
8 Ọba sì mú àwọn ọmọkùnrin méjèèjì tí Rispa ọmọbìnrin Aiah bí fún Saulu, àní Ammoni àti Mefiboṣeti àwọn ọmọkùnrin márààrún ti Merabu, ọmọbìnrin Saulu, àwọn tí ó bí fún Adrieli ọmọ Barsillai ará Mehola.
But the king took the two sons of Rizpah daughter of Aiah, sons whom she bore to Saul—the two sons were named Armoni and Mephibosheth; and David also took the five sons of Merab daughter of Saul, whom she bore to Adriel son of Barzillai the Meholathite.
9 Ó sì fi wọ́n lé àwọn ará Gibeah lọ́wọ́, wọ́n sì so wọ́n rọ̀ lórí òkè níwájú Olúwa: àwọn méjèèjì sì ṣubú lẹ́ẹ̀kan, a sì pa wọ́n ní ìgbà ìkórè, ní ìbẹ̀rẹ̀, ìkórè ọkà barle.
He handed them over into the hands of the Gibeonites. They hanged them on the mountain before Yahweh, and they died all seven together. They were put to death during the time of harvest, during the first days at the beginning of barley harvest.
10 Rispa ọmọbìnrin Aiah sì mú aṣọ ọ̀fọ̀ kan, ó sì tẹ́ fún ará rẹ̀ lórí àpáta ní ìbẹ̀rẹ̀ ìkórè, títí omi fi dà sí wọn lára láti ọ̀run wá, kò sì jẹ́ kí àwọn ẹyẹ ojú ọ̀run bà lé wọn lọ́sàn, tàbí àwọn ẹranko igbó lóru.
Then Rizpah, the daughter of Aiah, took sackcloth and spread it for herself on the mountain beside the dead bodies, from the beginning of harvest until the rain poured down on them from the sky. She did not allow the birds of the sky to disturb the bodies by day or the wild animals by night.
11 A sì ro èyí, tí Rispa ọmọbìnrin Aiah obìnrin Saulu ṣe, fún Dafidi.
It was told to David what Rizpah, the daughter of Aiah, the slave wife of Saul, had done.
12 Dafidi sì lọ ó sì kó egungun Saulu, àti egungun Jonatani ọmọ rẹ̀ kúrò lọ́dọ̀ àwọn ọkùnrin Jabesi Gileadi, àwọn tí ó jí wọn kúrò ní ìta Beti-Ṣani, níbi tí àwọn Filistini gbé so wọ́n rọ̀, nígbà tí àwọn Filistini pa Saulu ní Gilboa.
So 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 public square of Beth Shan, where the Philistines had hanged them, after the Philistines had killed Saul in Gilboa.
13 Ó sì mú egungun Saulu àti egungun Jonatani ọmọ rẹ̀ láti ibẹ̀ náà wá; wọ́n sì kó egungun àwọn tí a ti so rọ̀ jọ.
David took away from there the bones of Saul and the bones of Jonathan his son, and they gathered the bones of the seven men who had been hanged, as well.
14 Wọ́n sì sin egungun Saulu àti ti Jonatani ọmọ rẹ̀ ní ilé Benjamini, ní Ṣela, nínú ibojì Kiṣi baba rẹ̀, wọ́n sì ṣe gbogbo èyí tí ọba paláṣẹ, lẹ́yìn èyí ni Ọlọ́run si gba ẹ̀bẹ̀ nítorí ilẹ̀ náà.
They buried the bones of Saul and Jonathan his son in the country of Benjamin in Zela, in the tomb of Kish his father. They performed all that the king commanded. After that God answered their prayers for the land.
15 Ogun sì tún wà láàrín àwọn Filistini àti Israẹli; Dafidi sì sọ̀kalẹ̀, àti àwọn ìránṣẹ́ rẹ̀ pẹ̀lú rẹ̀, ó sì bá àwọn Filistini jà, ó sì rẹ Dafidi.
Then the Philistines went to war again with Israel. So David went down with his army and fought against the Philistines. David was overcome with battle fatigue.
16 Iṣbi-Benobu sì jẹ́ ọ̀kan nínú àwọn Rafa, ẹni tí ọ̀kọ̀ rẹ̀ wọn ọ̀ọ́dúnrún ṣékélì idẹ, ó sì sán idà tuntun, ó sì gbèrò láti pa Dafidi.
Ishbi-Benob, a descendant of the giants, whose bronze spear weighed three hundred shekels, and who was armed with a new sword, intended to kill David.
17 Ṣùgbọ́n Abiṣai ọmọ Seruiah ràn án lọ́wọ́, ó sì kọlu Filistini náà, ó sì pa á. Nígbà náà ni àwọn ìránṣẹ́ Dafidi sì búra fún un pé, “Ìwọ kì yóò sì tún bá wa jáde lọ sí ibi ìjà mọ́ kí ìwọ má ṣe pa iná Israẹli.”
But Abishai son of Zeruiah rescued David, attacked the Philistine, and killed him. Then the men of David swore to him, saying, “You must not go to battle anymore with us, so that you do not put out the lamp of Israel.”
18 Lẹ́yìn èyí, ìjà kan sì tún wà láàrín àwọn Israẹli àti àwọn Filistini ní Gobu, nígbà náà ni Sibekai ará Huṣati pa Safu, ẹni tí í ṣe ọ̀kan nínú àwọn Rafa.
It came about after this that there was again a battle with the Philistines at Gob, when Sibbekai the Hushathite killed Saph, who was one of the descendants of the Rephaim.
19 Ìjà kan sì tún wà ní Gobu láàrín àwọn Israẹli àti àwọn Filistini, Elhanani ọmọ Jairi ará Bẹtilẹhẹmu sì pa arákùnrin Goliati ará Gitti, ẹni tí ọ̀pá ọ̀kọ̀ rẹ̀ dàbí ìdábùú apásá ìhunṣọ.
It came about again in a battle with the Philistines at Gob, that Elhanan son of Jair the Bethlehemite killed Goliath the Gittite, the staff of whose spear was like a weaver's beam.
20 Ìjà kan sì tún wà ní Gati, ọkùnrin kan sì wà tí ó ga púpọ̀, ó sì ní ìka mẹ́fà ní ọwọ́ kan, àti ọmọ ẹsẹ̀ mẹ́fà ní ẹsẹ̀ kan, àpapọ̀ rẹ̀ sì jẹ́ mẹ́rìnlélógún; a sì bí òun náà ní Rafa.
It came about in another battle at Gath that there was a man of great height who had six fingers on each hand and six toes on each foot, twenty-four in number. He also was descended from the Rephaim.
21 Nígbà tí òun sì pe Israẹli ní ìjà. Jonatani ọmọ Ṣimea arákùnrin Dafidi sì pa á.
When he taunted Israel, Jonathan son of Shimeah, David's brother, killed him.
22 Àwọn mẹ́rẹ̀ẹ̀rin wọ̀nyí ni ìran Rafa ní Gati, wọ́n sì ti ọwọ́ Dafidi ṣubú àti ọwọ́ àwọn ìránṣẹ́ rẹ̀.
These were descendants of the Rephaim of Gath, and they were killed by the hand of David and by the hand of his soldiers.
