II Samuel 17

Bukod dito'y sinabi ni Achitophel kay Absalom, Papiliin mo ako ng labing dalawang libong lalake, at ako'y titindig at aking hahabulin si David sa gabing ito:

Moreover Ahithophel said unto Absalom, Let me now choose out twelve thousand men, and I will arise and pursue after David this night:

At ako'y darating sa kaniya samantalang siya'y pagod at may mahinang kamay, at akin siyang tatakutin: at ang buong bayan na nasa kaniya ay tatakas; at ang hari lamang ang aking sasaktan:

And I will come upon him while he is weary and weak handed, and will make him afraid: and all the people that are with him shall flee; and I will smite the king only:

At aking ibabalik sa iyo ang buong bayan: ang lalake na iyong inuusig ay parang kung ang lahat ay nagbabalik: sa gayo'y ang buong bayan ay mapapayapa.

And I will bring back all the people unto thee: the man whom thou seekest is as if all returned: so all the people shall be in peace.

At ang sabi ay nakalugod na mabuti kay Absalom, at sa lahat ng matanda sa Israel.

And the saying pleased Absalom well, and all the elders of Israel.

Nang magkagayo'y sinabi ni Absalom, Tawagin mo naman ngayon si Husai na Arachita, at atin ding dinggin ang kaniyang sasabihin.

Then said Absalom, Call now Hushai the Archite also, and let us hear likewise what he saith.

At nang dumating si Husai kay Absalom, ay sinalita ni Absalom sa kaniya, na sinasabi, Nagsalita si Achitophel ng ganitong paraan: atin bang gagawin ang ayon sa kaniyang sabi? Kung hindi, magsalita ka.

And when Hushai was come to Absalom, Absalom spake unto him, saying, Ahithophel hath spoken after this manner: shall we do after his saying? if not; speak thou.

At sinabi ni Husai kay Absalom, Ang payo na ibinigay ni Achitophel ngayon ay hindi mabuti.

And Hushai said unto Absalom, The counsel that Ahithophel hath given is not good at this time.

Sinabi ni Husai bukod sa rito, Iyong kilala ang iyong Ama at ang kaniyang mga lalake, na sila'y makapangyarihang lalake at sila'y nagngingitngit sa kanilang mga pagiisip na gaya ng isang oso na ninakawan sa parang ng kaniyang mga anak: at ang iyong ama ay lalaking mangdidigma, at hindi tatahan na kasama ng bayan.

For, said Hushai, thou knowest thy father and his men, that they be mighty men, and they be chafed in their minds, as a bear robbed of her whelps in the field: and thy father is a man of war, and will not lodge with the people.

Narito, siya'y nagkukubli ngayon sa isang hukay o sa ibang dako: at mangyayari, na pagka ang ilan sa kanila ay nabuwal sa pasimula, sinomang makarinig ay magsasabi, May patayan sa bayang sumusunod kay Absalom.

Behold, he is hid now in some pit, or in some other place: and it will come to pass, when some of them be overthrown at the first, that whosoever heareth it will say, There is a slaughter among the people that follow Absalom.

At pati ng matapang, na ang puso ay gaya ng puso ng leon, ay lubos na manglulupaypay: sapagka't kilala ng buong Israel na ang iyong ama ay makapangyarihang lalake, at sila na nasa kaniya ay matatapang na lalake.

And he also that is valiant, whose heart is as the heart of a lion, shall utterly melt: for all Israel knoweth that thy father is a mighty man, and they which be with him are valiant men.

Nguni't aking ipinapayo na ang buong Israel ay mapisan sa iyo, mula sa Dan hanggang sa Beer-seba, na gaya ng buhangin na nasa tabi ng dagat ang dami; at ikaw ay pumaroon sa pagbabaka ng iyong sariling pagkatao.

Therefore I counsel that all Israel be generally gathered unto thee, from Dan even to Beer–sheba, as the sand that is by the sea for multitude; and that thou go to battle in thine own person.

Sa gayo'y aabutin natin siya sa ibang dako na kasusumpungan natin sa kaniya, at tayo'y babagsak sa kaniya na gaya ng hamog na lumalapag sa lupa: at sa kaniya at sa lahat ng mga lalake na nasa kaniya ay hindi tayo magiiwan kahit isa.

So shall we come upon him in some place where he shall be found, and we will light upon him as the dew falleth on the ground: and of him and of all the men that are with him there shall not be left so much as one.

Bukod dito, kung siya'y umurong sa isang bayan, ang buong Israel ay magdadala nga ng mga lubid sa bayang yaon, at ating babatakin sa ilog, hanggang sa walang masumpungan doon kahit isang maliit na bato.

Moreover, if he be gotten into a city, then shall all Israel bring ropes to that city, and we will draw it into the river, until there be not one small stone found there.

At si Absalom at ang lahat na lalake sa Israel ay nagsipagsabi, Ang payo ni Husai na Arachita ay lalong mabuti kay sa payo ni Achitophel. Sapagka't ipinasiya ng Panginoon na masansala ang mabuting payo ni Achitophel, upang dalhin ng Panginoon ang kasamaan kay Absalom.

And Absalom and all the men of Israel said, The counsel of Hushai the Archite is better than the counsel of Ahithophel. For the LORD had appointed to defeat the good counsel of Ahithophel, to the intent that the LORD might bring evil upon Absalom.

Nang magkagayo'y sinabi ni Husai kay Sadoc at kay Abiathar na mga saserdote. Ganito't ganito ang ipinayo ni Achitophel kay Absalom at sa mga matanda sa Israel; at ganito't ganito ang aking ipinayo.

Then said Hushai unto Zadok and to Abiathar the priests, Thus and thus did Ahithophel counsel Absalom and the elders of Israel; and thus and thus have I counselled.

Ngayon nga'y magsugo kang madali, at saysayin kay David, na sabihin, Huwag kang tumigil ng gabing ito sa mga tawiran sa ilang, kundi sa anomang paraan ay tumawid ka: baka ang hari ay mapatay at ang buong bayan na nasa kaniya.

Now therefore send quickly, and tell David, saying, Lodge not this night in the plains of the wilderness, but speedily pass over; lest the king be swallowed up, and all the people that are with him.

Si Jonathan at si Ahimaas nga ay nagsitigil sa tabi ng Enrogel; at isang alilang babae ang pinaparoon at pinapagsaysay sa kanila; at sila'y nagsiparoon, at isinaysay sa haring kay David: sapagka't sila'y hindi makapakitang pumasok sa bayan.

Now Jonathan and Ahimaaz stayed by En–rogel; for they might not be seen to come into the city: and a wench went and told them; and they went and told king David.

Nguni't nakita sila ng isang bata, at isinaysay kay Absalom: at sila'y kapuwa lumabas na nagmadali, at sila'y nagsiparoon sa bahay ng isang lalake sa Bahurim, na may isang balon sa kaniyang looban; at sila'y nagsilusong doon.

Nevertheless a lad saw them, and told Absalom: but they went both of them away quickly, and came to a man's house in Bahurim, which had a well in his court; whither they went down.

At ang babae ay kumuha ng isang panakip at inilatag sa bunganga ng balon, at nilagyan ng mga trigo na giniik; at walang bagay na naalaman.

And the woman took and spread a covering over the well's mouth, and spread ground corn thereon; and the thing was not known.

At ang mga bataan ni Absalom ay nagsidating sa babae sa bahay; at kanilang sinabi, Saan nandoon si Ahimaas at si Jonathan? At sinabi ng babae sa kanila, Sila'y tumawid sa batis ng tubig. At nang kanilang mahanap at hindi nila masumpungan ay bumalik sila sa Jerusalem.

And when Absalom's servants came to the woman to the house, they said, Where is Ahimaaz and Jonathan? And the woman said unto them, They be gone over the brook of water. And when they had sought and could not find them, they returned to Jerusalem.

At nangyari, pagkatapos na sila'y makaalis, na sila'y nagsilabas sa balon, at nagsiyaon at isinaysay sa haring kay David: at kanilang sinabi kay David, Kayo'y magsibangon, at magsitawid na madali sa tubig: sapagka't ganito ang ipinayo ni Achitophel laban sa inyo.

And it came to pass, after they were departed, that they came up out of the well, and went and told king David, and said unto David, Arise, and pass quickly over the water: for thus hath Ahithophel counselled against you.

Nang magkagayo'y nagsibangon si David, at ang buong bayan na kasama niya, at sila'y tumawid sa Jordan; sa pagbubukang liwayway ay walang naiwan kahit isa sa kanila na hindi tumawid sa Jordan.

Then David arose, and all the people that were with him, and they passed over Jordan: by the morning light there lacked not one of them that was not gone over Jordan.

At nang makita ni Achitophel na ang kaniyang payo ay hindi sinunod, kaniyang siniyahan ang kaniyang asno, at bumangon, at umuwi siya sa bahay, sa kaniyang bayan at kaniyang inayos ang kaniyang bahay, at nagbigti; at siya'y namatay, at nalibing sa libingan ng kaniyang ama.

And when Ahithophel saw that his counsel was not followed, he saddled his ass, and arose, and gat him home to his house, to his city, and put his household in order, and hanged himself, and died, and was buried in the sepulchre of his father.

Nang magkagayon ay naparoon si David sa Mahanaim. At si Absalom ay tumawid sa Jordan, siya at ang lahat na lalake ng Israel na kasama niya.

Then David came to Mahanaim. And Absalom passed over Jordan, he and all the men of Israel with him.

At inilagay ni Absalom si Amasa sa hukbo na kahalili ni Joab. Si Amasa nga ay anak ng isang lalake na ang pangalan ay Itra, na Israelita, na sumiping kay Abigal na anak na babae ni Naas, na kapatid ni Sarvia, na ina ni Joab.

And Absalom made Amasa captain of the host instead of Joab: which Amasa was a man's son, whose name was Ithra an Israelite, that went in to Abigail the daughter of Nahash, sister to Zeruiah Joab's mother.

At ang Israel at si Absalom ay nagsihantong sa lupain ng Galaad.

So Israel and Absalom pitched in the land of Gilead.

At nangyari, ng si David ay dumating sa Mahanaim, na si Sobi na anak ni Naas na taga Rabba sa mga anak ni Ammon, at si Machir na anak ni Ammiel na taga Lodebar, at si Barzillai na Galaadita na taga Rogelim.

And it came to pass, when David was come to Mahanaim, that Shobi the son of Nahash of Rabbah of the children of Ammon, and Machir the son of Ammiel of Lo–debar, and Barzillai the Gileadite of Rogelim,

Ay nangagdala ng mga higaan, at mga mangkok, at mga sisidlang lupa, at trigo, at sebada, at harina, at butil na sinangag, at habas, at lentehas, at pagkain na sinangag.

Brought beds, and basons, and earthen vessels, and wheat, and barley, and flour, and parched corn, and beans, and lentiles, and parched pulse,

At pulot pukyutan, at mantekilya, at mga tupa, at keso ng baka para kay David, at sa bayan na kasama niya, upang kanin; sapagka't kanilang sinabi, Ang bayan ay gutom, at pagod, at uhaw sa ilang.

And honey, and butter, and sheep, and cheese of kine, for David, and for the people that were with him, to eat: for they said, The people is hungry, and weary, and thirsty, in the wilderness.
