1And it came to pass after this, that Absalom prepared for himself chariots and horses, and fifty men to run before him.
1 Woodin banda Absalom na torkoyaŋ da bariyaŋ soola nga boŋ se, nda boro waygu kaŋ yaŋ ga zuru a jine.
2And Absalom rose early, and stood beside the way of the gate; and it was so, that when any man who had a controversy had to come to the king for judgment, then Absalom called him, and said, Of what city art thou? And he said, Thy servant is of one of the tribes of Israel.
2 Absalom mo ga tun za da hinay ka kay birni meyo fonda jarga. A ciya mo, da boro fo gonda nga kalima sanni kaŋ a ga konda bonkoono do zama nga ma ciiti a se, kala Absalom ma bora ce ka ne: «Ni ya kwaara woofo boro no?» Kala nga mo ma ne: «Ay, ni bannya ya Israyla kunda ya-cine boro no.»
3And Absalom said to him, See, thy matters are good and right; but there is no man to hear thee [appointed] by the king.
3 Absalom mo ma ne bora se: «Guna, ni sanno ga boori, a gonda cimi mo, amma i mana boro kulu daŋ bonkoono do kaŋ ga maa ni se.»
4And Absalom said, Oh that I were made judge in the land, that every man who has any controversy and cause might come to me, and I would do him justice!
4 Absalom ma ne koyne: «Ay! D'a ciya ay no i daŋ alkaali laabo ra, doŋ hala boro fo gonda kalima sanni wala ciiti, a ma kand'a ay do. Ay mo, doŋ ay ga cimi ciiti te a se!»
5And it was so, that when any man came near to do him obeisance, he put forth his hand, and took him, and kissed him.
5 A ciya mo, waato kaŋ boro fo maan zama nga ma sombu a se, kala Absalom ma nga kambe salle ka bora di k'a garba sunsum.
6And in this manner did Absalom to all Israel that came to the king for judgment; and Absalom stole the hearts of the men of Israel.
6 Yaadin no Absalom soobay ka te Israyla ra, boro kulu kaŋ ga ba ka koy bonkoono do ciiti ceeciyaŋ se. Yaadin mo no Absalom na Israyla alborey biney bare nd'a.
7And it came to pass at the end of forty years, that Absalom said to the king, I pray thee, let me go and pay in Hebron my vow which I have vowed to Jehovah.
7 Jiiri taaci timmante banda, kala Absalom ne bonkoono se: «Ay ga ni ŋwaaray, ma yadda ay se ay ma koy Hebron k'ay sarti kaŋ ay sambu Rabbi se toonandi.
8For thy servant vowed a vow while I abode in Geshur in Syria, saying, If Jehovah shall bring me again indeed to Jerusalem, then I will serve Jehovah.
8 Zama ay, ni bannya na sarti sambu za ay go Gesur, Suriya laabo ra, ka ne: hala day daahir Rabbi ye ka kande ay Urusalima, waato din gaa ay ga sududu Rabbi se.»
9And the king said to him, Go in peace. And he rose up and went to Hebron.
9 Bonkoono ne a se: «Ma koy baani.» A binde tun ka koy Hebron.
10And Absalom sent emissaries into all the tribes of Israel, saying, When ye hear the sound of the trumpet, ye shall say, Absalom reigns in Hebron.
10 Amma Absalom na ma-cararayaŋ daŋ Israyla kundey kulu ra ka ne: «Saaya kaŋ cine araŋ maa hilli karyaŋ, kal araŋ ma ne: ‹Absalom no ga ti bonkooni Hebron ra!.› »
11And with Absalom went two hundred men out of Jerusalem, that were invited; and they went in their simplicity, and they knew nothing.
11 Alboro zangu hinka mo fatta Urusalima birno ra Absalom banda kaŋ yaŋ i n'i ce no, amma jaŋ-ka-bay ra no i koy. I mana bay hay kulu gaa.
12And Absalom sent for Ahithophel the Gilonite, David's counsellor, from his city, from Giloh, while he offered the sacrifices. And the conspiracy gathered strength; and the people increased continually with Absalom.
12 Absalom donton mo i ma Dawda saawarekasina Ahitofel, Jiloni bora ce nga kwaara ra, danga Jilo nooya, za a go sargay salleyaŋ gaa. Murteyaŋo mo go, a te gaabi, zama waati kulu borey kaŋ yaŋ ga kaa Absalom do go ga tonton day no.
13And there came one to David who reported saying, The hearts of the men of Israel are after Absalom.
13 Diya fo mo kaa Dawda do ka ne: «Israyla borey biney bare ka ye Absalom gaa.»
14And David said to all his servants that were with him at Jerusalem, Rise up and let us flee; for we shall not [else] escape from Absalom. Be quick to depart, lest he overtake us quickly, and bring evil upon us, and smite the city with the edge of the sword.
14 Dawda binde ne nga tamey kulu kaŋ go nga do Urusalima yaŋ se: «Wa tun, iri ma zuru, zama da manti yaadin no boro si no iri ra kaŋ ga yana ka fun Absalom kambe ra. Wa te diraw ciine, a ma si iri gar da waasi, a ma kaŋ iri boŋ da laala ka birno kar da takuba.»
15And the king's servants said to the king, Behold, thy servants [will do] whatever my lord the king shall choose.
15 Bonkoono tamey mo ne: «Guna, iri ni tamey go soolante. Iri ga te mo haŋ kaŋ bonkoono ga suuban.»
16And the king went forth, and all his household after him, and the king left ten women, concubines, to keep the house.
16 Bonkoono binde fatta, a almayaaley kulu mo n'a gana. Bonkoono na wayboro fooyaŋ naŋ, ngey boro way kaŋ wahayyaŋ no, zama i ma windo batu se.
17And the king went forth, and all the people after him, and stayed at the remote house.
17 Bonkoono fatta mo nga nda borey kulu a banda -- i simba kwaara windi kokoranta do haray.
18And all his servants passed on beside him; and all the Cherethites, and all the Pelethites, and all the Gittites, six hundred men that came after him from Gath, passed over before the king.
18 A tamey kulu mo bisa a banda. Bonkoono doogarey kulu, Kerat sata da Pelet sata, da Jittancey kulu mo, i boro zangu iddu kaŋ yaŋ n'a gana za Gat, i go bonkoono jine.
19And the king said to Ittai the Gittite, Why dost thou also go with us? return to thy place, and abide with the king; for thou art a foreigner, and besides, thou hast emigrated to the place where thou [dwellest].
19 Gaa no bonkoono ne Ittay Jitti bora se: «Ifo se no ni mo goono ga kaa iri banda? Ma ye ka koy ka goro bonkoono banda, zama ni ya yaw no kaŋ zuru ka kaa iri do. Ma ye ka koy ni nango ra.
20Thou didst come yesterday, and should I this day make thee go up and down with us, seeing I go whither I can? Return and take back thy brethren. Mercy and truth be with thee!
20 Za kaŋ bi maaniyo no ni kaa, hunkuna a boori ay ma ni daŋ ni ma koy-da-ye te iri banda, za kaŋ ay go ga koy naŋ kaŋ ay ga koy? Kala ni ma bare ka ye nin da ni nya-izey. Suuji nda cimi ma goro ni banda.»
21And Ittai answered the king and said, [As] Jehovah liveth, and [as] my lord the king liveth, surely in what place my lord the king shall be, whether in death or life, even there also will thy servant be.
21 Ittay mo tu bonkoono se ka ne: «Ay ze da Rabbi fundikoono da koyo ay bonkoono fundo mo, haciika naŋ kaŋ koyo ay bonkoono bara, hala buuyaŋ se no wala fundi se no, ay, ni bannya mo ga bara noodin.»
22And David said to Ittai, Go and pass over. And Ittai the Gittite passed over, and all his men, and all the little ones that were with him.
22 Dawda ne Ittay se: «Ma koy ka daŋandi.» Kala Ittay Jittanca daŋandi, nga nda nga borey kulu da boro kayney kulu kaŋ yaŋ go a banda.
23And all the country wept with a loud voice, and all the people passed over; the king also himself passed over the torrent Kidron, and all the people passed over, towards the way of the wilderness.
23 Laabo me-a-me mo hẽ da jinde beeri, borey kulu mo daŋandi. Bonkoono bumbo na Kidron gooro daŋandi. Jama kulu mo daŋandi ka koy saaji fonda gaa.
24And behold, Zadok also, and all the Levites with him, bearing the ark of the covenant of God; and they set down the ark of God; and Abiathar went up, until all the people had passed completely out of the city.
24 Zadok mo go, a kaa, nga nda Lawitey kulu nga banda. Irikoy sappa sundurko mo go i se ga jare. I na Irikoy sundurko jisi. Abiyatar mo ziji, kala jama kulu fatta birno ra ka ban.
25And the king said to Zadok, Carry back the ark of God into the city. If I shall find favour in the eyes of Jehovah, he will bring me again, and shew me it, and its habitation.
25 Bonkoono ne Zadok se: «Ma ye nda Irikoy sundurko birno ra. D'ay du gaakuri Rabbi diyaŋ gaa, a ga ye ka kande ay, a m'a cabe ay se, nga nd'a nangora kulu.
26But if he thus say, I have no delight in thee; behold, [here am] I, let him do to me as seemeth good to him.
26 Amma d'a ne: ‹Ay si maa ni kaani,› -- guna, ay neeya neewo. A ma te ay se haŋ kaŋ ga kaan nga se.»
27And the king said to Zadok the priest, Thou art the seer: return into the city in peace, and your two sons with you, Ahimaaz thy son, and Jonathan the son of Abiathar.
27 Bonkoono ne Alfa Zadok se: «Ni go ga di, wala? Kala ni ma ye birno ra baani. Araŋ ize hinka neeya ni banda, sanda ni ize Ahimaz, da ni ize Yonata, Abiyatar ize.
28See, I will stop in the plains of the desert, until there come word from you to inform me.
28 Guna, saajo furoyaŋo do no ay goono ga goro kayna hala sanni ma fun araŋ do ka kaa ka seeda ay se.»
29And Zadok and Abiathar carried the ark of God again to Jerusalem; and they abode there.
29 Zadok da Abiyatar binde na Irikoy sundurko sambu ka kond'a Urusalima ka goro noodin.
30But David went up by the ascent of the Olives, and wept as he went up, and had his head covered, and he went barefoot; and all the people that was with him covered every man his head, and they went up, weeping as they went up.
30 Dawda mo kaaru Zeytun Tondi fonda boŋ haray. A ga kaaru, a ga hẽ, a boŋo go daabante, a go ga dira taamu si. Borey kulu kaŋ go a banda, i boŋey go daabanteyaŋ. I ga ziji ka koy, i ga hẽ.
31And one told David saying, Ahithophel is among the conspirators with Absalom. Then said David, Jehovah, I pray thee, turn the counsel of Ahithophel into foolishness.
31 Boro fo mo ci Dawda se ka ne: «Ahitofel mo go Absalom banda zamba saawara din ra.» Dawda mo ne: «Ya Rabbi, ma Ahitofel saawara bare a ma ciya saamotaray.»
32And it came to pass, when David had come to the summit, where he worshipped God, that behold, Hushai the Archite came to meet him with his coat rent, and earth upon his head.
32 Waato kaŋ Dawda na tudo kaaru, nango kaŋ i ga sududu Irikoy se, kala Husay, Arcita bora kaa ka Dawda kubay. A kwaayo go toorante, kusa mo go a boŋo boŋ.
33And David said to him, If thou passest on with me, thou wilt be a burden to me;
33 Dawda mo ne a se: «Da ni bisa ay banda, ni ga ciya ay se jaraw,
34but if thou return to the city, and say to Absalom, I will be thy servant, O king; as I have been thy father's servant hitherto, so now will I be thy servant; then mayest thou for me defeat the counsel of Ahithophel.
34 amma da ni bare ka ye birno ra ka ne Absalom se: ‹Ya bonkoono, ay ga ciya ni bannya. Danga mate kaŋ cine ay goro ni baaba bannya jirbey kaŋ bisa ra, yaadin cine no sohõ mo ay ga ciya ni bannya.› Waato din gaa ni ga hin ka Ahitofel saawarey zeeri ay se.
35And hast thou not there with thee Zadok and Abiathar the priests? and it shall be, [that] whatsoever thing thou shalt hear out of the king's house, thou shalt tell it to Zadok and Abiathar the priests.
35 Manti Zadok da Abiyatar go ni se noodin, ngey kaŋ alfagayaŋ no? A ga ciya binde hay kulu kaŋ ni ga maa bonkoono windo ra, kala ni ma ci alfagey se, Zadok nda Abiyatar.
36Behold, they have there with them their two sons, Ahimaaz Zadok's [son], and Jonathan Abiathar's son; and by them ye shall send to me everything that ye shall hear.
36 A go, noodin i banda, i gonda ngey ize alboro hinka, Ahimaz, Zadok ize, da Yonata, Abiyatar ize. I do no araŋ ga baaru kulu kaŋ araŋ ga maa samba ay se.»
37And Hushai David's friend came into the city, and Absalom came into Jerusalem.
37 Husay, Dawda cora binde kaa ka furo kwaara ra. Absalom mo furo Urusalima ra.
