¶ Patizan fanmi Sayil yo ak patizan David yo pase lontan ap goumen yonn ak lòt konsa. Men, patizan David yo t'ap vin pi plis chak jou. Patizan fanmi Sayil yo menm t'ap bese.

Men sis pitit gason David vin fè antan li te lavil Ebwon: Pi gran an te rele Amon. Se Akenoam, moun lavil Jizreyèl, ki te manman l'.

Dezyèm lan te rele Kileyab. Se Abigayel, vèv Nabal la, moun lavil Kamèl, ki te manman l'. Twazyèm lan te rele Absalon. Se Maka, pitit fi Talmayi, wa lavil Gechou a, ki te manman l'.

Katriyèm lan te rele Adonija. Se Agit ki te manman l'. Senkyèm lan te rele Chefatya. Se Abital ki te manman l'.

Sizyèm lan te rele Jitreyam. Se Egla, yon lòt madanm David te genyen, ki te manman l'. Yo tout te fèt antan David te rete lavil Ebwon.

Pandan lagè a t'ap kaye ant patizan fanmi Sayil yo ak patizan David yo, Abnè te vin gen plis pouvwa chak jou sou patizan fanmi Sayil yo.

¶ Sayil te gen yon fanm kay ki te rele Rispa. Se te pitit fi Aja. Abnè te kouche avè l'. Yon jou, Ichbochèt rele Abnè, li di l' konsa: -Poukisa w' al kouche avèk yonn nan fanm kay papa m' yo?

Lè Abnè tande sa, li fache anpil. Li di Ichbochèt konsa: -Eske se yon chen k'ap travay pou moun Jida yo mwen ye? Jouk jounen jòdi a mwen pa janm trayi Sayil, papa ou, ni patizan l' yo, ni zanmi l' yo. Mwen goumen rèd mare pou m' pa kite yo tonbe nan men David. Lèfini, pou koulye a w'ap fè m' repwòch pou yon ti pachat mwen te fè ak fanm sa a!

Se pou Seyè a ban m' pi gwo pinisyon ki genyen si mwen pa fè pwomès Bondye te fè David la rive vre.

10 Paske li te fè sèman l'ap wete baton kòmandman an nan fanmi Sayil la pou l' mete David wa sou moun Izrayèl yo ak sou moun Jida yo, soti depi teritwa Dann lan rive teritwa Becheba a.

11 Ichbochèt pa t' ka reponn Abnè anyen sitèlman li te pè l'.

12 Abnè voye kèk mesaje bò kote David pou di li: -Ki moun ki pral gouvènen peyi sa a? Pase yon kontra avè m'. M'ap ede ou pou tout moun Izrayèl yo vin jwenn ou.

13 David reponn li: -Dakò. M'ap pase yon kontra avè ou. Men, m'ap mande yon sèl bagay. Piga ou vin wè m' san ou pa mennen Mikal, pitit fi Sayil la, avè ou. Se sèl jan pou ou parèt devan m'.

14 Apre sa, David voye kèk mesaje bò kot Ichbochèt pou di li: -Renmèt mwen Mikal, madanm mwen. Mwen te bay san po ti kòk moun Filisti pou m' te ka marye avè l'.

15 Ichbochèt voye pran Mikal lakay mari li, Paltyèl, pitit gason Layis la.

16 Paltyèl pati dèyè l', li t'ap kriye sou tout wout la jouk yo rive lavil Baourim. Men Abnè di Paltyèl konsa: -Tounen lakay ou non, monchè! Epi Paltyèl tounen tounen l'.

17 Abnè al jwenn chèf fanmi moun Izrayèl yo pou fè yon koze ak yo. Li di yo konsa: -Depi lontan nou te vle se David ki pou te wa nou, pa vre.

18 Enben, men chans nou. Paske men sa Seyè a te di sou David: Mwen pral sèvi ak David, sèvitè m' lan, pou m' delivre pèp Izrayèl la, pèp mwen an, anba men moun Filisti yo ak anba men tout lòt lènmi l' yo.

19 Anbè pale ak moun branch fanmi Benjamen yo tou. Lèfini, li pati pou Ebwon pou li al di David sa moun pèp Izrayèl yo ansanm ak tout moun branch fanmi Benjamen yo te tonbe dakò pou yo fè.

20 Li rive lakay David lavil Ebwon. Li te gen vin lòt gason avè l'. David fè yon gwo resepsyon pou Abnè ak pou vin moun ki te avè l' yo.

21 Abnè di David konsa: -Monwa, mwen prale koulye a, mwen pral sanble tout moun pèp Izrayèl yo bò kote ou. y'a pase yon kontra avè ou. Konsa, w'a ka gouvènen tout peyi a jan ou vle l' la. David bay Abnè pèmisyon pou li ale. Lèfini, Abnè pati ak kè poze.

22 ¶ Apre sa, Joab ak patizan David yo vin rive. Yo te sot fè yon pase kay lènmi yo, yo te tounen ak anpil bagay yo te pran lakay yo. Lè sa a, Abnè pa t' Ebwon ankò lakay David, paske David te gen tan kite l' ale ak garanti anyen p'ap rive l'.

23 Lè Joab ak sòlda ki te avè l' yo rive, yo di Joab Abnè, pitit Nè a, te vin wè wa a, epi wa a kite l' ale ak garanti anyen p'ap rive l'.

24 Joab al jwenn wa a, li di li: -Sa ou fè konsa? Abnè vin jwenn ou epi ou kite l' ale san ou pa fè l' anyen?

25 Ou konn ki moun yo rele Abnè, pitit Nè a! Si li vini, se pou l' ka woule ou, pou l' ka konnen tout vire tounen ou, pou l' konnen tou sa w'ap fè.

26 Lèfini, Joab soti kay David, li voye moun al chache Abnè san David pa konnen. Yo jwenn Abnè bò sitèn dlo Sira a, yo fè l' tounen.

27 Lè Abnè rive Ebwon, Joab mennen l' apa bò pòtay lavil la tankou si li te vle pale pou kont li avè l'. Epi li ba li yon kout ponya nan vant. Se konsa Joab touye Abnè paske Abnè te touye Asayèl, frè l' la.

28 Lè David vin pran nouvèl la, li di: -Seyè a wè ni mwen ni moun gouvènman yo, nou pa gen anyen pou nou wè nan lanmò Abnè, pitit Nè a.

29 Se pou chatiman an tonbe sou tèt Joab ak tout fanmi li! Se pou toujou gen nan fanmi li moun k'ap gen ekoulman osinon move maladi po, gason k'ap blije fè travay fanm, gason k'ap mouri nan lagè, gason k'ap nan grangou.

30 Se konsa, Joab ak Abichay, frè l' la, te ansasinen Abnè paske Abnè te touye Asayèl, frè yo a, lè batay Gabawon an.

31 Apre sa, David bay Joab ak tout moun ki te avè l' yo lòd pou yo chire rad ki sou yo, pou yo mete rad sak sou yo, lèfini pou yo mache devan sèkèy Abnè a ap kriye. Wa David menm t'ap mache dèyè sèkèy defen an.

32 Yo antere Abnè Ebwon. Apre sa, wa a pran rele byen fò, li t'ap kriye sou tonm Abnè a. Tout pèp la t'ap kriye tou.

33 Wa a pran chante pou plenn lanmò Abnè. Li di nan chante a: -Abnè, poukisa ou mouri bèt konsa?

34 Men ou yo pa t' mare, pye ou yo pa t' nan chenn. Ou mouri tankou moun ki tonbe nan men malfektè! Tout pèp la pran kriye ankò pou Abnè.

35 Apre sa, pandan tout rès jounen an, yo pote manje bay David pou li manje, men David fè sèman sa a: -Se pou Bondye ban m' pi gwo pinisyon ki genyen si mwen mete anyen nan bouch mwen anvan solèy kouche!

36 Tout pèp la vin konn sa. Sa te fè yo plezi. Pou di vre, tou sa David te fè te fè pèp la plezi.

37 Se konsa tout moun David yo ansanm ak tout moun pèp Izrayèl yo te vin konnen tout bon vre wa a pa t' gen anyen pou l' te wè nan jan yo te ansasinen Abnè, pitit gason Nè a.

38 Wa a di moun k'ap sèvi avè l' yo: -Aa, mesye! Jòdi a pèp Izrayèl la pèdi yon chèf, yon gwo chèf wi!

39 Atout se wa Bondye chwazi a mwen ye, mwen santi m' fèb jòdi a. Pitit gason Sewouya yo twò mechan pou mwen. Se pou Bondye pini krimenèl sa yo pou mechanste yo fè a.

The war between the house of Saul and the house of David lasted a long time.(A) David grew stronger and stronger,(B) while the house of Saul grew weaker and weaker.(C)

Sons were born to David in Hebron:

His firstborn was Amnon(D) the son of Ahinoam(E) of Jezreel;

his second, Kileab the son of Abigail(F) the widow of Nabal of Carmel;

the third, Absalom(G) the son of Maakah daughter of Talmai king of Geshur;(H)

the fourth, Adonijah(I) the son of Haggith;

the fifth, Shephatiah the son of Abital;

and the sixth, Ithream the son of David’s wife Eglah.

These were born to David in Hebron.

Abner Goes Over to David

During the war between the house of Saul and the house of David, Abner(J) had been strengthening his own position in the house of Saul. Now Saul had had a concubine(K) named Rizpah(L) daughter of Aiah. And Ish-Bosheth said to Abner, “Why did you sleep with my father’s concubine?”

Abner was very angry because of what Ish-Bosheth said. So he answered, “Am I a dog’s head(M)—on Judah’s side? This very day I am loyal to the house of your father Saul and to his family and friends. I haven’t handed you over to David. Yet now you accuse me of an offense involving this woman! May God deal with Abner, be it ever so severely, if I do not do for David what the Lord promised(N) him on oath 10 and transfer the kingdom from the house of Saul and establish David’s throne over Israel and Judah from Dan to Beersheba.”(O) 11 Ish-Bosheth did not dare to say another word to Abner, because he was afraid of him.

12 Then Abner sent messengers on his behalf to say to David, “Whose land is it? Make an agreement with me, and I will help you bring all Israel over to you.”

13 “Good,” said David. “I will make an agreement with you. But I demand one thing of you: Do not come into my presence unless you bring Michal daughter of Saul when you come to see me.”(P) 14 Then David sent messengers to Ish-Bosheth son of Saul, demanding, “Give me my wife Michal,(Q) whom I betrothed to myself for the price of a hundred Philistine foreskins.”

15 So Ish-Bosheth gave orders and had her taken away from her husband(R) Paltiel(S) son of Laish. 16 Her husband, however, went with her, weeping behind her all the way to Bahurim.(T) Then Abner said to him, “Go back home!” So he went back.

17 Abner conferred with the elders(U) of Israel and said, “For some time you have wanted to make David your king. 18 Now do it! For the Lord promised David, ‘By my servant David I will rescue my people Israel from the hand of the Philistines(V) and from the hand of all their enemies.(W)’”

19 Abner also spoke to the Benjamites in person. Then he went to Hebron to tell David everything that Israel and the whole tribe of Benjamin(X) wanted to do. 20 When Abner, who had twenty men with him, came to David at Hebron, David prepared a feast(Y) for him and his men. 21 Then Abner said to David, “Let me go at once and assemble all Israel for my lord the king, so that they may make a covenant(Z) with you, and that you may rule over all that your heart desires.”(AA) So David sent Abner away, and he went in peace.

Joab Murders Abner

22 Just then David’s men and Joab returned from a raid and brought with them a great deal of plunder. But Abner was no longer with David in Hebron, because David had sent him away, and he had gone in peace. 23 When Joab and all the soldiers with him arrived, he was told that Abner son of Ner had come to the king and that the king had sent him away and that he had gone in peace.

24 So Joab went to the king and said, “What have you done? Look, Abner came to you. Why did you let him go? Now he is gone! 25 You know Abner son of Ner; he came to deceive you and observe your movements and find out everything you are doing.”

26 Joab then left David and sent messengers after Abner, and they brought him back from the cistern at Sirah. But David did not know it. 27 Now when Abner(AB) returned to Hebron, Joab took him aside into an inner chamber, as if to speak with him privately. And there, to avenge the blood of his brother Asahel, Joab stabbed him(AC) in the stomach, and he died.(AD)

28 Later, when David heard about this, he said, “I and my kingdom are forever innocent(AE) before the Lord concerning the blood of Abner son of Ner. 29 May his blood(AF) fall on the head of Joab and on his whole family!(AG) May Joab’s family never be without someone who has a running sore(AH) or leprosy[a] or who leans on a crutch or who falls by the sword or who lacks food.”

30 (Joab and his brother Abishai murdered Abner because he had killed their brother Asahel in the battle at Gibeon.)

31 Then David said to Joab and all the people with him, “Tear your clothes and put on sackcloth(AI) and walk in mourning(AJ) in front of Abner.” King David himself walked behind the bier. 32 They buried Abner in Hebron, and the king wept(AK) aloud at Abner’s tomb. All the people wept also.

33 The king sang this lament(AL) for Abner:

“Should Abner have died as the lawless die?
34     Your hands were not bound,
    your feet were not fettered.(AM)
You fell as one falls before the wicked.”

And all the people wept over him again.

35 Then they all came and urged David to eat something while it was still day; but David took an oath, saying, “May God deal with me, be it ever so severely,(AN) if I taste bread(AO) or anything else before the sun sets!”

36 All the people took note and were pleased; indeed, everything the king did pleased them. 37 So on that day all the people there and all Israel knew that the king had no part(AP) in the murder of Abner son of Ner.

38 Then the king said to his men, “Do you not realize that a commander and a great man has fallen(AQ) in Israel this day? 39 And today, though I am the anointed king, I am weak, and these sons of Zeruiah(AR) are too strong(AS) for me.(AT) May the Lord repay(AU) the evildoer according to his evil deeds!”
