2 Samuel 13
JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
Bible Mutal (Kosraean)
1And it came to pass after this, that Absalom the son of David had a fair sister, whose name was Tamar; and Amnon the son of David loved her.
1Oasr sie tamtael lal Absalom, wen natul David, su arulana kato ac el soenna payuk. Inel pa Tamar. Amnon, sie pac sin wen natul David, el arulana lungse Tamar.
2And Amnon was so distressed that he fell sick because of his sister Tamar; for she was a virgin; and it seemed hard to Amnon to do any thing unto her.
2Yoklana lungse lal nu sel, oru el masak mweyen el nunku mu Tamar el ac koflana muta yorol. Na mweyen Tamar el virgin se, tia filfilla elan ku in osun nu sin mukul.
3But Amnon had a friend, whose name was Jonadab, the son of Shimeah David's brother; and Jonadab was a very subtle man.
3Tusruktu oasr kawuk se lal Amnon, su mwet na kutasrik in nunak. El pa Jonadab wen natul Shammah, tamulel lal David.
4And he said unto him: 'Why, O son of the king, art thou thus becoming leaner from day to day? wilt thou not tell me?' And Amnon said unto him: 'I love Tamar, my brother Absalom's sister.'
4Jonadab el fahk nu sel Amnon, “Kom wen sruhk nutin tokosra, a len nukewa nga liye tuh kom ngetnget in asor. Mea se sis an?” Na Amnon el topuk, “Nga arulana lungse Tamar, tamtael lal Absalom, a nga Absalom papa sefanna, nina luo.”
5And Jonadab said unto him: 'Lay thee down on thy bed, and feign thyself sick; and when thy father cometh to see thee, say unto him: Let my sister Tamar come, I pray thee, and give me bread to eat, and dress the food in my sight, that I may see it, and eat it at her hand.'
5Jonadab el fahk nu sel, “Fahla ona ke bed kiom an, in mu kom mas. Ke papa tomom el tuku in liye kom, na kom fahk nu sel, ‘Nunak munas, sap Tamar tamtael luk, elan tuku kiteyu mongo. Nga lungse elan tuku orala ma nak uh yen nga ac ku in liyal we uh, ac elan sifacna kiteyuwi pac.’”
6So Amnon lay down, and feigned himself sick; and when the king was come to see him, Amnon said unto the king: 'Let my sister Tamar come, I pray thee, and make me a couple of cakes in my sight, that I may eat at her hand.'
6Na Amnon el oru mu el mas, ac el som ona ke bed kial ah. Tokosra David el som in liyal, ac Amnon el fahk nu sel, “Nunak munas, supwalma Tamar elan tuku orala ekasr cake ah nak inge yen nga ac ku in liyal we, ac elan sifacna kiteyuwi.”
7Then David sent home to Tamar, saying: 'Go now to thy brother Amnon's house, and dress him food.'
7Ouinge David el supwala kas inge nu yorol Tamar, su muta in lohm sin tokosra, “Fahla nu lohm sel Amnon ac orala kutu mongo nal.”
8So Tamar went to her brother Amnon's house; and he was lying down. And she took dough, and kneaded it, and made cakes in his sight, and did bake the cakes.
8El som nu we, tuh na Amnon el oan ke bed kial ah. Na Tamar el eis kutu flao takmwek ac sang orauk kutu cake yen Amnon el ku in liyal we. El munanla cake ah,
9And she took the pan, and poured them out before him; but he refused to eat. And Amnon said: 'Have out all men from me.' And they went out every man from him.
9ac eisla liki pan ah, sang elan mongo, tuh el srangesr. Amnon el fahk, “Sap mwet nukewa in illa.” Ac elos nukewa som.
10And Amnon said unto Tamar: 'Bring the food into the chamber, that I may eat of thy hand.' And Tamar took the cakes which she had made, and brought them into the chamber to Amnon her brother.
10Na el fahk nu sel Tamar, “Use cake an nu ke bed kiuk uh ac kiteyuwi.” Na Tamar el eis cake ah, ac som nu yorol.
11And when she had brought them near unto him to eat, he took hold of her, and said unto her: 'Come lie with me, my sister.'
11Ac ke el sang nu sel, Amnon el sruokilya ac fahk, “Fahsru wiyu oan.”
12And she answered him: 'Nay, my brother, do not force me; for no such thing ought to be done in Israel; do not thou this wanton deed.
12Na Tamar el fahk, “Mo! Nimet akkohsyeyu in oru kain ouiya fohkfok sacn! Arulana koluk!
13And I, whither shall I carry my shame? and as for thee, thou wilt be as one of the base men in Israel. Now therefore, I pray thee, speak unto the king; for he will not withhold me from thee.'
13Ku nga ac ngetnget fuka nga fin forfor ye mutun mwet uh? Ac kom, kom ac fah arulana oakasla in facl Israel. Nunak munas, kaskas nu sel tokosra. Nga lulalfongi mu el ku in eisyuwot nu sum.”
14Howbeit he would not hearken unto her voice; but being stronger than she, he forced her, and lay with her.
14A Amnon el tia lohng ma el fahk, na mweyen el ku lukel, el sruinkuilya ac oan yorol.
15Then Amnon hated her with exceeding great hatred; for the hatred wherewith he hated her was greater than the love wherewith he had loved her. And Amnon said unto her: 'Arise, be gone.'
15Na Amnon el srungalla na upa. Srunga lal kacl uh alukela lungse lal kacl meet ah, ac el fahk nu sel, “Tiok!”
16And she said unto him: 'Not so, because this great wrong in putting me forth is worse than the other that thou didst unto me.' But he would not hearken unto her.
16Tamar el fahk, “Mo. Kom fin lisyula ouingan, koluk se inge ac tuh yohk liki na ma koluk se kom tufahna orala ah.” Tusruktu Amnon el tiana lohngol.
17Then he called his servant that ministered unto him, and said: 'Put now this woman out from me, and bolt the door after her.' —
17El pangon mwet kulansap se lal sifacna ac fahk, “Usla mutan se inge liki ye mutuk! Tolulla nu likinum uh ac lakiya srungul an!”
18Now she had a garment of many colours upon her; for with such robes were the king's daughters that were virgins apparelled. — And his servant brought her out, and bolted the door after her.
18Mwet kulansap sac sisella ac lakiya srungul sac. Tamar el nukum nuknuk loeloes se ac loes pac pao ah. In pacl ingo, pa inge nuknuk lun sie mutan fisrak su soenna payuk.
19And Tamar put ashes on her head, and rent her garment of many colours that was on her; and she laid her hand on her head, and went her way, crying aloud as she went.
19El sang apat nu fin sifal, ac seseya nuknuk loeloes lal, ac afinya mutal ke paol, ac fahsr na tung som.
20And Absalom her brother said unto her: 'Hath Amnon thy brother been with thee? but now hold thy peace, my sister: he is thy brother; take not this thing to heart.' So Tamar remained desolate in her brother Absalom's house.
20Ke Absalom tamulel lal, el liyalak el siyuk, “Ya Amnon el akkolukye kom? Nunak munas, ma louk, nimet sang in arulana aktoasrye kom. El ma pac wiom, na pa kom in tia fahk nu sin kutena mwet kac.” Ouinge Tamar el muta in lohm sel Absalom, ac el asor ac mukaimtal.
21But when king David heard of all these things, he was very wroth.
21Ke Tokosra David el lohng ke ma sikyak inge, el foloyak.
22And Absalom spoke unto Amnon neither good nor bad; for Absalom hated Amnon, because he had forced his sister Tamar.
22Ac Absalom el arulana srungalla Amnon ke sripen el orekma koluk nu sel Tamar ma loul, na el tiana sifil kas nu sel.
23And it came to pass after two full years, that Absalom had sheep-shearers in Baal-hazor, which is beside Ephraim; and Absalom invited all the king's sons.
23Yac luo toko ah, Absalom el sang sheep natul ah in kalkul in acn Baal Hazor, apkuran nu ke siti Ephraim. Na el suli mukul nukewa nutin tokosra tuh elos in som nu we.
24And Absalom came to the king, and said: 'Behold now, thy servant hath sheep-shearers; let the king, I pray thee, and his servants go with thy servant.'
24El som nu yorol Tokosra David ac fahk, “O leum luk, nga sang sheep nutik uh in kalkulla, na nga siyuk lah kom, ac mwet pwapa lom an ku in tuku nu ke pacl in kufwa ah?”
25And the king said to Absalom: 'Nay, my son, let us not all go, lest we be burdensome unto thee.' And he pressed him; howbeit he would not go, but blessed him.
25Na tokosra el topuk, “Mo, wen nutik. Ac fah yokla elya lom kacsr kut nukewa fin fahsrot.” Absalom el kwafe na, tuh tokosra el tiana wi ma el siyuk ah, ac el sap Absalom elan som.
26Then said Absalom: 'If not, I pray thee, let my brother Amnon go with us.' And the king said unto him: 'Why should he go with thee?'
26Na Absalom el fahk, “Kwal, fin upa, kom ku in nunak munas fuhlella Amnon tamulel luk, elan tuku?” Ac tokosra el siyuk, “Efu ku elan wi?”
27But Absalom pressed him, and he let Amnon and all the king's sons go with him.
27Na Absalom el kwafe nwe ke na tokosra el tari lela Amnon ac mukul wial nukewa in welul som. Absalom el akoo mongo na lulap se, fal nu sin tokosra.
28And Absalom commanded his servants, saying: 'Mark ye now, when Amnon's heart is merry with wine; and when I say unto you: Smite Amnon, then kill him, fear not; have not I commanded you? be courageous, and be valiant.'
28Ac el fahk nu sin mwet kulansap lal ah, “Liye na, tuh ke pacl se Amnon el nimnim nwe sruhila, nga fah fahkla sap se, na komtal unilya. Nimet sangeng. Ma na luk in fosrngakin ma se inge. Komtal in pulaik ac tia sensen.”
29And the servants of Absalom did unto Amnon as Absalom had commanded. Then all the king's sons arose, and every man got him up upon his mule, and fled.
29Ouinge mwet kulansap lal Absalom elos oru oana ma el sapkin, ac unilya Amnon. Wen nukewa natul David saya elos sroang nu fin kosro natulos, ac kaingla.
30And it came to pass, while they were in the way, that the tidings came to David, saying: 'Absalom hath slain all the king's sons, and there is not one of them left.'
30Ke elos srakna fahsr inkanek lalos in folok nu yen selos ah, fwackyang nu sel David mu, “Absalom el uniya nufon wen nutum ah. Tia sie selos lula!”
31Then the king arose, and rent his garments, and lay on the earth; and all his servants stood by with their clothes rent.
31Tokosra el tuyak ac seya nuknuk lal ke el arulana asor, ac el putati nu infohk uh. Mwet kulansap lal ma welul in pacl sac elos seya pac nuknuk lalos.
32And Jonadab, the son of Shimeah David's brother, answered and said: 'Let not my lord suppose that they have killed all the young men the king's sons; for Amnon only is dead; for by the appointment of Absalom this hath been determined from the day that he forced his sister Tamar.
32A Jonadab wen natul Shammah, tamulel lal David, el fahk, “Leum fulat, elos tia uniya nufon wen nutum ah. Amnon mukena pa misa. Kalem na lah Absalom el tuh akoo nunak se lal inge e in len se ma Amnon el akkolukyalla Tamar, ma lohl.
33Now therefore let not my lord the king take the thing to his heart, to think that all the king's sons are dead; for Amnon only is dead.'
33Na pa nimet kom lulalfongi pweng se ma fahk mu wen nutum nukewa misa ah. Amnon mukena anwuki.”
34But Absalom fled. And the young man that kept the watch lifted up his eyes, and looked, and, behold, there came much people in a roundabout way by the hill-side.
34In pacl se na ingan Absalom el kaingla. Na mwet mweun se su topang in acn sac, el liye u na lulap se oatui fineol uh me, ke inkanek nu Horonaim. El som nu yorol tokosra ac fahkak ma el liye.
35And Jonadab said unto the king: 'Behold, the king's sons are come; as thy servant said, so it is.'
35Jonadab el fahk nu sel David, “Wen nutum an pa tuku ingan, oana ke nga fahk ah.”
36And it came to pass, as soon as he had made an end of speaking, that, behold, the king's sons came, and lifted up their voice, and wept; and the king also and all his servants wept very sore.
36Ke el tufahna safla in fahk ma inge, na wen natul David ah utyak, ac elos mutawauk in tung, ac David ac mwet pwapa lal ah wi pac tung na upa.
37But Absalom fled, and went to Talmai the son of Ammihud, king of Geshur. And David mourned for his son every day.
37Na Absalom el kaingla ac som nu yurin Tokosra Talmai, wen natul Ammihud, lun acn Geshur. David el tung kacl Amnon, wen natul, pacl na loeloes.
38So Absalom fled, and went to Geshur, and was there three years.
38Absalom el muta in acn Geshur ke yac tolu.
39And the soul of king David failed with longing for Absalom; for he was comforted concerning Amnon, seeing he was dead.
39Na ke David el tila asor ke misa lal Amnon, el arulana ke liyalak Absalom, wen natul.
