1 وَكَانَتِ ٱلْحَرْبُ طَوِيلَةً بَيْنَ بَيْتِ شَاوُلَ وَبَيْتِ دَاوُدَ، وَكَانَ دَاوُدُ يَذْهَبُ يَتَقَوَّى، وَبَيْتُ شَاوُلَ يَذْهَبُ يَضْعُفُ.
1 Now there was a long war between Saul’s house and David’s house. David grew stronger and stronger, but Saul’s house grew weaker and weaker.
2 وَوُلِدَ لِدَاوُدَ بَنُونَ فِي حَبْرُونَ. وَكَانَ بِكْرُهُ أَمْنُونَ مِنْ أَخِينُوعَمَ ٱلْيَزْرَعِيلِيَّةِ،
2 Sons were born to David in Hebron. His firstborn was Amnon, of Ahinoam the Jezreelitess;
3 وَثَانِيهِ كِيلآبَ مِنْ أَبِيجَايِلَ ٱمْرَأَةِ نَابَالَ ٱلْكَرْمَلِيِّ، وَٱلثَّالِثُ أَبْشَالُومَ ٱبْنَ مَعْكَةَ بِنْتِ تَلْمَايَ مَلِكِ جَشُورَ،
3 and his second, Chileab, of Abigail the wife of Nabal the Carmelite; and the third, Absalom the son of Maacah the daughter of Talmai king of Geshur;
4 وَٱلرَّابِعُ أَدُونِيَّا ٱبْنَ حَجِّيثَ، وَٱلْخَامِسُ شَفَطْيَا ٱبْنَ أَبِيطَالَ،
4 and the fourth, Adonijah the son of Haggith; and the fifth, Shephatiah the son of Abital;
5 وَٱلسَّادِسُ يَثْرَعَامَ مِنْ عَجْلَةَ ٱمْرَأَةِ دَاوُدَ. هَؤُلَاءِ وُلِدُوا لِدَاوُدَ فِي حَبْرُونَ.
5 and the sixth, Ithream, of Eglah, David’s wife. These were born to David in Hebron.
6 وَكَانَ فِي وُقُوعِ ٱلْحَرْبِ بَيْنَ بَيْتِ شَاوُلَ وَبَيْتِ دَاوُدَ، أَنَّ أَبْنَيْرَ تَشَدَّدَ لِأَجْلِ بَيْتِ شَاوُلَ.
6 While there was war between Saul’s house and David’s house, Abner made himself strong in Saul’s house.
7 وَكَانَتْ لِشَاوُلَ سُرِّيَّةٌ ٱسْمُهَا رِصْفَةُ بِنْتُ أَيَّةَ. فَقَالَ إِيشْبُوشَثُ لِأَبْنَيْرَ: «لِمَاذَا دَخَلْتَ إِلَى سُرِّيَّةِ أَبِي؟»
7 Now Saul had a concubine, whose name was Rizpah, the daughter of Aiah; and Ishbosheth said to Abner, “Why have you gone in to my father’s concubine?”
8 فَٱغْتَاظَ أَبْنَيْرُ جِدًّا مِنْ كَلَامِ إِيشْبُوشَثَ وَقَالَ: «أَلَعَلِّي رَأْسُ كَلْبٍ لِيَهُوذَا؟ ٱلْيَوْمَ أَصْنَعُ مَعْرُوفًا مَعَ بَيْتِ شَاوُلَ أَبِيكَ، مَعَ إِخْوَتِهِ وَمَعَ أَصْحَابِهِ، وَلَمْ أُسَلِّمْكَ لِيَدِ دَاوُدَ، وَتُطَالِبُنِي ٱلْيَوْمَ بِإِثْمِ ٱلْمَرْأَةِ!
8 Then Abner was very angry about Ishbosheth’s words, and said, “Am I a dog’s head that belongs to Judah? Today I show kindness to your father Saul’s house, to his brothers, and to his friends, and have not delivered you into the hand of David; and yet you charge me today with a fault concerning this woman!
9 هَكَذَا يَصْنَعُ ٱللهُ بِأَبْنَيْرَ وَهَكَذَا يَزِيدُهُ، إِنَّهُ كَمَا حَلَفَ ٱلرَّبُّ لِدَاوُدَ كَذَلِكَ أَصْنَعُ لَهُ
9 God do so to Abner, and more also, if, as Yahweh has sworn to David, I don’t do even so to him:
10 لِنَقْلِ ٱلْمَمْلَكَةِ مِنْ بَيْتِ شَاوُلَ، وَإِقَامَةِ كُرْسِيِّ دَاوُدَ عَلَى إِسْرَائِيلَ وَعَلَى يَهُوذَا مِنْ دَانَ إِلَى بِئْرِ سَبْعٍ».
10 to transfer the kingdom from Saul’s house, and to set up David’s throne over Israel and over Judah, from Dan even to Beersheba.”
11 وَلَمْ يَقْدِرْ بَعْدُ أَنْ يُجَاوِبَ أَبْنَيْرَ بِكَلِمَةٍ لِأَجْلِ خَوْفِهِ مِنْهُ.
11 He could not answer Abner another word, because he was afraid of him.
12 فَأَرْسَلَ أَبْنَيْرُ مِنْ فَوْرِهِ رُسُلًا إِلَى دَاوُدَ قَائِلًا: «لِمَنْ هِيَ ٱلْأَرْضُ؟ يَقُولُونَ: ٱقْطَعْ عَهْدَكَ مَعِي، وَهُوَذَا يَدِي مَعَكَ لِرَدِّ جَمِيعِ إِسْرَائِيلَ إِلَيْكَ».
12 Abner sent messengers to David on his behalf, saying, “Whose is the land?” and saying, “Make your alliance with me, and behold, my hand will be with you to bring all Israel around to you.”
13 فَقَالَ: «حَسَنًا. أَنَا أَقْطَعُ مَعَكَ عَهْدًا، إِلَا إِنِّي أَطْلُبُ مِنْكَ أَمْرًا وَاحِدًا، وَهُوَ أَنْ لَا تَرَى وَجْهِي مَا لَمْ تَأْتِ أَوَّلًا بِمِيكَالَ بِنْتِ شَاوُلَ حِينَ تَأْتِي لِتَرَى وَجْهِي».
13 David said, “Good. I will make a treaty with you, but one thing I require of you. That is, you will not see my face unless you first bring Michal, Saul’s daughter, when you come to see my face.”
14 وَأَرْسَلَ دَاوُدُ رُسُلًا إِلَى إِيشْبُوشَثَ بْنِ شَاوُلَ يَقُولُ: «أَعْطِنِي ٱمْرَأَتِي مِيكَالَ ٱلَّتِي خَطَبْتُهَا لِنَفْسِي بِمِئَةِ غُلْفَةٍ مِنَ ٱلْفِلِسْطِينِيِّينَ».
14 David sent messengers to Ishbosheth, Saul’s son, saying, “Deliver me my wife Michal, whom I was given to marry for one hundred foreskins of the Philistines.”
15 فَأَرْسَلَ إِيشْبُوشَثُ وَأَخَذَهَا مِنْ عِنْدِ رَجُلِهَا، مِنْ فَلْطِيئِيلَ بْنِ لَايِشَ.
15 Ishbosheth sent and took her from her husband, Paltiel the son of Laish.
16 وَكَانَ رَجُلُهَا يَسِيرُ مَعَهَا وَيَبْكِي وَرَاءَهَا إِلَى بَحُورِيمَ. فَقَالَ لَهُ أَبْنَيْرُ: «ٱذْهَبِ. ٱرْجِعْ». فَرَجَعَ.
16 Her husband went with her, weeping as he went, and followed her to Bahurim. Then Abner said to him, “Go! Return!” and he returned.
17 وَكَانَ كَلَامُ أَبْنَيْرَ إِلَى شُيُوخِ إِسْرَائِيلَ قَائِلًا: «قَدْ كُنْتُمْ مُنْذُ أَمْسِ وَمَا قَبْلَهُ تَطْلُبُونَ دَاوُدَ لِيَكُونَ مَلِكًا عَلَيْكُمْ.
17 Abner had communication with the elders of Israel, saying, “In times past, you sought for David to be king over you.
18 فَٱلْآنَ ٱفْعَلُوا، لِأَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ كَلَّمَ دَاوُدَ قَائِلًا: إِنِّي بِيَدِ دَاوُدَ عَبْدِي أُخَلِّصُ شَعْبِي إِسْرَائِيلَ مِنْ يَدِ ٱلْفِلِسْطِينِيِّينَ وَمِنْ أَيْدِي جَمِيعِ أَعْدَائِهِمْ».
18 Now then do it! For Yahweh has spoken of David, saying, ‘By the hand of my servant David, I will save my people Israel out of the hand of the Philistines, and out of the hand of all their enemies.’”
19 وَتَكَلَّمَ أَبْنَيْرُ أَيْضًا فِي مَسَامِعِ بَنْيَامِينَ، وَذَهَبَ أَبْنَيْرُ لِيَتَكَلَّمَ فِي سَماعِ دَاوُدَ أَيْضًا فِي حَبْرُونَ، بِكُلِّ مَا حَسُنَ فِي أَعْيُنِ إِسْرَائِيلَ وَفِي أَعْيُنِ جَمِيعِ بَيْتِ بَنْيَامِينَ.
19 Abner also spoke in the ears of Benjamin; and Abner went also to speak in the ears of David in Hebron all that seemed good to Israel and to the whole house of Benjamin.
20 فَجَاءَ أَبْنَيْرُ إِلَى دَاوُدَ إِلَى حَبْرُونَ وَمَعَهُ عِشْرُونَ رَجُلًا. فَصَنَعَ دَاوُدُ لِأَبْنَيْرَ وَلِلرِّجَالِ ٱلَّذِينَ مَعَهُ وَلِيمَةً.
20 So Abner came to David to Hebron, and twenty men with him. David made Abner and the men who were with him a feast.
21 وَقَالَ أَبْنَيْرُ لِدَاوُدَ: «أَقُومُ وَأَذْهَبُ وَأَجْمَعُ إِلَى سَيِّدِي ٱلْمَلِكِ جَمِيعَ إِسْرَائِيلَ، فَيَقْطَعُونَ مَعَكَ عَهْدًا، وَتَمْلِكُ حَسَبَ كُلِّ مَا تَشْتَهِي نَفْسُكَ». فَأَرْسَلَ دَاوُدُ أَبْنَيْرَ فَذَهَبَ بِسَلَامٍ.
21 Abner said to David, “I will arise and go, and will gather all Israel to my lord the king, that they may make a covenant with you, and that you may reign over all that your soul desires.” David sent Abner away; and he went in peace.
22 وَإِذَا بِعَبِيدِ دَاوُدَ وَيُوآبُ قَدْ جَاءُوا مِنَ ٱلْغَزْوِ وَأَتَوْا بِغَنِيمَةٍ كَثِيرَةٍ مَعَهُمْ، وَلَمْ يَكُنْ أَبْنَيْرُ مَعَ دَاوُدَ فِي حَبْرُونَ، لِأَنَّهُ كَانَ قَدْ أَرْسَلَهُ فَذَهَبَ بِسَلَامٍ.
22 Behold, David’s servants and Joab came from a raid and brought in a great plunder with them; but Abner was not with David in Hebron, for he had sent him away, and he had gone in peace.
23 وَجَاءَ يُوآبُ وَكُلُّ ٱلْجَيْشِ ٱلَّذِي مَعَهُ. فَأَخْبَرُوا يُوآبَ قَائِلِينَ: «قَدْ جَاءَ أَبْنَيْرُ بْنُ نَيْرٍ إِلَى ٱلْمَلِكِ فَأَرْسَلَهُ، فَذَهَبَ بِسَلَامٍ».
23 When Joab and all the army who was with him had come, they told Joab, “Abner the son of Ner came to the king, and he has sent him away, and he has gone in peace.”
24 فَدَخَلَ يُوآبُ إِلَى ٱلْمَلِكِ وَقَالَ: «مَاذَا فَعَلْتَ؟ هُوَذَا قَدْ جَاءَ أَبْنَيْرُ إِلَيْكَ. لِمَاذَا أَرْسَلْتَهُ فَذَهَبَ؟
24 Then Joab came to the king and said, “What have you done? Behold, Abner came to you. Why is it that you have sent him away, and he is already gone?
25 أَنْتَ تَعْلَمُ أَبْنَيْرَ بْنَ نَيْرٍ أَنَّهُ إِنَّمَا جَاءَ لِيُمَلِّقَكَ، وَلِيَعْلَمَ خُرُوجَكَ وَدُخُولَكَ وَلِيَعْلَمَ كُلَّ مَا تَصْنَعُ».
25 You know Abner the son of Ner. He came to deceive you, and to know your going out and your coming in, and to know all that you do.”
26 ثُمَّ خَرَجَ يُوآبُ مِنْ عِنْدِ دَاوُدَ وَأَرْسَلَ رُسُلًا وَرَاءَ أَبْنَيْرَ، فَرَدُّوهُ مِنْ بِئْرِ ٱلسِّيرَةِ وَدَاوُدُ لَا يَعْلَمُ.
26 When Joab had come out from David, he sent messengers after Abner, and they brought him back from the well of Sirah; but David didn’t know it.
27 وَلَمَّا رَجَعَ أَبْنَيْرُ إِلَى حَبْرُونَ، مَالَ بِهِ يُوآبُ إِلَى وَسَطِ ٱلْبَابِ لِيُكَلِّمَهُ سِرًّا، وَضَرَبَهُ هُنَاكَ فِي بَطْنِهِ فَمَاتَ بِدَمِ عَسَائِيلَ أَخِيهِ.
27 When Abner had returned to Hebron, Joab took him aside into the middle of the gate to speak with him quietly, and struck him there in the body, so that he died for the blood of Asahel his brother.
28 فَسَمِعَ دَاوُدُ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ فَقَالَ: «إِنِّي بَرِيءٌ أَنَا وَمَمْلَكَتِي لَدَى ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ مِنْ دَمِ أَبْنَيْرَ بْنِ نَيْرٍ.
28 Afterward, when David heard it, he said, “I and my kingdom are guiltless before Yahweh forever of the blood of Abner the son of Ner.
29 فَلْيَحُلَّ عَلَى رَأْسِ يُوآبَ وَعَلَى كُلِّ بَيْتِ أَبِيهِ، وَلَا يَنْقَطِعُ مِنْ بَيْتِ يُوآبَ ذُو سَيْلٍ وَأَبْرَصُ وَعَاكِزٌ عَلَى ٱلْعُكَّازَةِ وَسَاقِطٌ بِٱلسَّيْفِ وَمُحْتَاجُ ٱلْخُبْزِ».
29 Let it fall on the head of Joab and on all his father’s house. Let there not fail from the house of Joab one who has a discharge, or who is a leper, or who leans on a staff, or who falls by the sword, or who lacks bread.”
30 فَقَتَلَ يُوآبُ وَأَبِيشَايُ أَخُوهُ أَبْنَيْرَ، لِأَنَّهُ قَتَلَ عَسَائِيلَ أَخَاهُمَا فِي جِبْعُونَ فِي ٱلْحَرْبِ.
30 So Joab and Abishai his brother killed Abner, because he had killed their brother Asahel at Gibeon in the battle.
31 فَقَالَ دَاوُدُ لِيُوآبَ وَلِجَمِيعِ ٱلشَّعْبِ ٱلَّذِي مَعَهُ: «مَزِّقُوا ثِيَابَكُمْ وَتَنَطَّقُوا بِٱلْمُسُوحِ وَٱلْطِمُوا أَمَامَ أَبْنَيْرَ». وَكَانَ دَاوُدُ ٱلْمَلِكُ يَمْشِي وَرَاءَ ٱلنَّعْشِ.
31 David said to Joab and to all the people who were with him, “Tear your clothes, and clothe yourselves with sackcloth, and mourn in front of Abner.” King David followed the bier.
32 وَدَفَنُوا أَبْنَيْرَ فِي حَبْرُونَ. وَرَفَعَ ٱلْمَلِكُ صَوْتَهُ وَبَكَى عَلَى قَبْرِ أَبْنَيْرَ، وَبَكَى جَمِيعُ ٱلشَّعْبِ.
32 They buried Abner in Hebron; and the king lifted up his voice and wept at Abner’s grave; and all the people wept.
33 وَرَثَا ٱلْمَلِكُ أَبْنَيْرَ وَقَالَ: «هَلْ كَمَوْتِ أَحْمَقَ يَمُوتُ أَبْنَيْرُ؟
33 The king lamented for Abner, and said, “Should Abner die as a fool dies?
34 يَدَاكَ لَمْ تَكُونَا مَرْبُوطَتَيْنِ، وَرِجْلَاكَ لَمْ تُوضَعَا فِي سَلَاسِلِ نُحَاسٍ. كَٱلسُّقُوطِ أَمَامَ بَنِي ٱلْإِثْمِ سَقَطْتَ». وَعَادَ جَمِيعُ ٱلشَّعْبِ يَبْكُونَ عَلَيْهِ.
34 Your hands weren’t bound, and your feet weren’t put into fetters. As a man falls before the children of iniquity, so you fell.” All the people wept again over him.
35 وَجَاءَ جَمِيعُ ٱلشَّعْبِ لِيُطْعِمُوا دَاوُدَ خُبْزًا، وَكَانَ بَعْدُ نَهَارٌ. فَحَلَفَ دَاوُدُ قَائِلًا: «هَكَذَا يَفْعَلُ لِيَ ٱللهُ وَهَكَذَا يَزِيدُ، إِنْ كُنْتُ أَذُوقُ خُبْزًا أَوْ شَيْئًا آخَرَ قَبْلَ غُرُوبِ ٱلشَّمْسِ».
35 All the people came to urge David to eat bread while it was yet day; but David swore, saying, “God do so to me, and more also, if I taste bread or anything else, until the sun goes down.”
36 فَعَرَفَ جَمِيعُ ٱلشَّعْبِ وَحَسُنَ فِي أَعْيُنِهِمْ، كَمَا أَنَّ كُلَّ مَا صَنَعَ ٱلْمَلِكُ كَانَ حَسَنًا فِي أَعْيُنِ جَمِيعِ ٱلشَّعْبِ.
36 All the people took notice of it, and it pleased them, as whatever the king did pleased all the people.
37 وَعَلِمَ كُلُّ ٱلشَّعْبِ وَجَمِيعُ إِسْرَائِيلَ فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمِ أَنَّهُ لَمْ يَكُنْ مِنَ ٱلْمَلِكِ قَتْلُ أَبْنَيْرَ بْنِ نَيْرٍ.
37 So all the people and all Israel understood that day that it was not of the king to kill Abner the son of Ner.
38 وَقَالَ ٱلْمَلِكُ لِعَبِيدِهِ: «أَلَا تَعْلَمُونَ أَنَّ رَئِيسًا وَعَظِيمًا سَقَطَ ٱلْيَوْمَ فِي إِسْرَائِيلَ؟
38 The king said to his servants, “Don’t you know that a prince and a great man has fallen today in Israel?
39 وَأَنَا ٱلْيَوْمَ ضَعِيفٌ وَمَمْسُوحٌ مَلِكًا، وَهَؤُلَاءِ ٱلرِّجَالُ بَنُو صَرُويَةَ أَقْوَى مِنِّي. يُجَازِي ٱلرَّبُّ فَاعِلَ ٱلشَّرِّ كَشَرِّهِ».
39 I am weak today, though anointed king. These men, the sons of Zeruiah are too hard for me. May Yahweh reward the evildoer according to his wickedness.”
