2 Samuel 19

The Latin Vulgate VUL

1 nuntiatum est autem Ioab quod rex fleret et lugeret filium suum

2 et versa est victoria in die illa in luctum omni populo audivit enim populus in die illa dici dolet rex super filio suo

3 et declinabat populus in die illa ingredi civitatem quomodo declinare solet populus versus et fugiens de proelio

4 porro rex operuit caput suum et clamabat voce magna fili mi Absalom Absalom fili mi fili mi

5 ingressus ergo Ioab ad regem in domo dixit confudisti hodie vultus omnium servorum tuorum qui salvam fecerunt animam tuam et animam filiorum tuorum et filiarum tuarum et animam uxorum tuarum et animam concubinarum tuarum

6 diligis odientes te et odio habes diligentes te et ostendisti hodie quia non curas de ducibus tuis et de servis tuis et vere cognovi modo quia si Absalom viveret et nos omnes occubuissemus tunc placeret tibi

7 nunc igitur surge et procede et adloquens satisfac servis tuis iuro enim tibi per Dominum quod si non exieris ne unus quidem remansurus sit tecum nocte hac et peius erit hoc tibi quam omnia mala quae venerunt super te ab adulescentia tua usque in praesens

8 surrexit ergo rex et sedit in porta et omni populo nuntiatum est quod rex sederet in porta venitque universa multitudo coram rege Israhel autem fugit in tabernacula sua

9 omnis quoque populus certabat in cunctis tribubus Israhel dicens rex liberavit nos de manu inimicorum nostrorum ipse salvavit nos de manu Philisthinorum et nunc fugit de terra propter Absalom

10 Absalom autem quem unximus super nos mortuus est in bello usquequo siletis et non reducitis regem

11 rex vero David misit ad Sadoc et ad Abiathar sacerdotes dicens loquimini ad maiores natu Iuda dicentes cur venitis novissimi ad reducendum regem in domum suam sermo autem omnis Israhel pervenerat ad regem in domo eius

12 fratres mei vos os meum et caro mea vos quare novissimi reducitis regem

13 et Amasae dicite nonne os meum es et caro mea haec faciat mihi Deus et haec addat si non magister militiae fueris coram me omni tempore pro Ioab

14 et inclinavit cor omnium virorum Iuda quasi viri unius miseruntque ad regem dicentes revertere tu et omnes servi tui

15 et reversus est rex et venit usque ad Iordanem et Iuda venit in Galgala ut occurreret regi et transduceret eum Iordanem

16 festinavit autem Semei filius Gera filii Iemini de Baurim et descendit cum viris Iuda in occursum regis David

17 cum mille viris de Beniamin et Siba puer de domo Saul et quindecim filii eius ac viginti servi erant cum eo et inrumpentes Iordanem ante regem

18 transierunt vada ut transducerent domum regis et facerent iuxta iussionem eius Semei autem filius Gera prostratus coram rege cum iam transisset Iordanem

19 dixit ad eum ne reputes mihi domine mi iniquitatem neque memineris iniuriam servi tui in die qua egressus es domine mi rex de Hierusalem neque ponas rex in corde tuo

20 agnosco enim servus tuus peccatum meum et idcirco hodie primus veni de omni domo Ioseph descendique in occursum domini mei regis

21 respondens vero Abisai filius Sarviae dixit numquid pro his verbis non occidetur Semei quia maledixit christo Domini

22 et ait David quid mihi et vobis filii Sarviae cur efficimini mihi hodie in Satan ergone hodie interficietur vir in Israhel an ignoro hodie me factum regem super Israhel

23 et ait rex Semei non morieris iuravitque ei

24 Mifiboseth quoque filius Saul descendit in occursum regis inlotis pedibus et intonsa barba vestesque suas non laverat a die qua egressus fuerat rex usque ad diem reversionis eius in pace

25 cumque Hierusalem occurrisset regi dixit ei rex quare non venisti mecum Mifiboseth

26 qui respondens ait domine mi rex servus meus contempsit me dixi ei ego famulus tuus ut sterneret mihi asinum et ascendens abirem cum rege claudus enim sum servus tuus

27 insuper et accusavit me servum tuum ad te dominum meum regem tu autem domine mi rex sicut angelus Dei fac quod placitum est tibi

28 neque enim fuit domus patris mei nisi morti obnoxia domino meo regi tu autem posuisti me servum tuum inter convivas mensae tuae quid igitur habeo iustae querellae aut quid possum ultra vociferari ad regem

29 ait ergo ei rex quid ultra loqueris fixum est quod locutus sum tu et Siba dividite possessiones

30 responditque Mifiboseth regi etiam cuncta accipiat postquam reversus est dominus meus rex pacifice in domum suam

31 Berzellai quoque Galaadites descendens de Rogelim transduxit regem Iordanem paratus etiam ultra fluvium prosequi eum

32 erat autem Berzellai Galaadites senex valde id est octogenarius et ipse praebuit alimenta regi cum moraretur in Castris fuit quippe vir dives nimis

33 dixit itaque rex ad Berzellai veni mecum ut requiescas secure mecum in Hierusalem

34 et ait Berzellai ad regem quot sunt dies annorum vitae meae ut ascendam cum rege Hierusalem

35 octogenarius sum hodie numquid vigent sensus mei ad discernendum suave aut amarum aut delectare potest servum tuum cibus et potus vel audire ultra possum vocem cantorum atque cantricum quare servus tuus fit oneri domino meo regi

36 paululum procedam famulus tuus ab Iordane tecum nec indigeo hac vicissitudine

37 sed obsecro ut revertar servus tuus et moriar in civitate mea iuxta sepulchrum patris mei et matris meae est autem servus tuus Chamaam ipse vadat tecum domine mi rex et fac ei quod tibi bonum videtur

38 dixitque rex mecum transeat Chamaam et ego faciam ei quicquid tibi placuerit et omne quod petieris a me inpetrabis

39 cumque transisset universus populus et rex Iordanem osculatus est rex Berzellai et benedixit ei et ille reversus est in locum suum

40 transivit ergo rex in Galgalam et Chamaam cum eo omnis autem populus Iuda transduxerat regem et media tantum pars adfuerat de populo Israhel

41 itaque omnes viri Israhel concurrentes ad regem dixerunt ei quare te furati sunt fratres nostri viri Iuda et transduxerunt regem et domum eius Iordanem omnesque viros David cum eo

42 et respondit omnis vir Iuda ad viros Israhel quia propior mihi est rex cur irasceris super hac re numquid comedimus aliquid ex rege aut munera nobis data sunt

43 et respondit vir Israhel ad viros Iuda et ait decem partibus maior ego sum apud regem magisque ad me pertinet David quam ad te cur mihi fecisti iniuriam et non mihi nuntiatum est priori ut reducerem regem meum durius autem responderunt viri Iuda viris Israhel

Good News Translation GNT

1 Joab was told that King David was weeping and mourning for Absalom.

2 And so the joy of victory was turned into sadness for all of David's troops that day, because they heard that the king was mourning for his son.

3 They went back into the city quietly, like soldiers who are ashamed because they are running away from battle.

4 The king covered his face and cried loudly, "O my son! My son Absalom! Absalom, my son!"

5 Joab went to the king's house and said to him, "Today you have humiliated your men - the men who saved your life and the lives of your sons and daughters and of your wives and concubines.

6 You oppose those who love you and support those who hate you! You have made it clear that your officers and men mean nothing to you. I can see that you would be quite happy if Absalom were alive today and all of us were dead.

7 Now go and reassure your men. I swear by the Lord's name that if you don't, not one of them will be with you by tomorrow morning. That would be the worst disaster you have suffered in all your life."

8 Then the king got up, and went and sat near the city gate. His men heard that he was there, and they all gathered around him. Meanwhile all the Israelites had fled to their own hometowns.

9 All over the country they started quarreling among themselves. "King David saved us from our enemies," they said to one another. "He rescued us from the Philistines, but now he has fled from Absalom and left the country.

10 We anointed Absalom as our king, but he has been killed in battle. So why doesn't somebody try to bring King David back?"

11 The news of what the Israelites were saying reached King David. So he sent the priests Zadok and Abiathar to ask the leaders of Judah, "Why should you be the last to help bring the king back to his palace?

12 You are my relatives, my own flesh and blood; why should you be the last to bring me back?"

13 David also told them to say to Amasa, "You are my relative. From now on I am putting you in charge of the army in place of Joab. May God strike me dead if I don't!"

14 David's words won the complete loyalty of all the men of Judah, and they sent him word to return with all his officials.

15 On his way back the king was met at the Jordan River by the men of Judah, who had come to Gilgal to escort him across the river.

16 At the same time the Benjaminite Shimei son of Gera from Bahurim hurried to the Jordan to meet King David.

17 He had with him a thousand men from the tribe of Benjamin. And Ziba, the servant of Saul's family, also came with his fifteen sons and twenty servants, and they arrived at the Jordan before the king.

18 They crossed the river to escort the royal party across and to do whatever the king wanted. As the king was getting ready to cross, Shimei threw himself down in front of him

19 and said, "Your Majesty, please forget the wrong I did that day you left Jerusalem. Don't hold it against me or think about it any more.

20 I know, sir, that I have sinned, and this is why I am the first one from the northern tribes to come and meet Your Majesty today."

21 Abishai son of Zeruiah spoke up: "Shimei should be put to death because he cursed the one whom the Lord chose as king."

22 But David said to Abishai and his brother Joab, "Who asked your opinion? Are you going to give me trouble? I am the one who is king of Israel now, and no Israelite will be put to death today."

23 And he said to Shimei, "I give you my word that you will not be put to death."

24 Then Mephibosheth, Saul's grandson, came down to meet the king. He had not washed his feet, trimmed his beard, or washed his clothes from the time the king left Jerusalem until he returned victorious.

25 When Mephibosheth arrived from Jerusalem to meet the king, the king said to him, "Mephibosheth, you didn't go with me. Why not?"

26 He answered, "As you know, Your Majesty, I am crippled. I told my servant to saddle my donkey so that I could ride along with you, but he betrayed me.

27 He lied about me to Your Majesty, but you are like God's angel, so do what seems right to you.

28 All of my father's family deserved to be put to death by Your Majesty, but you gave me the right to eat at your table. I have no right to ask for any more favors from Your Majesty."

29 The king answered, "You don't have to say anything more. I have decided that you and Ziba will share Saul's property."

30 "Let Ziba have it all," Mephibosheth answered. "It's enough for me that Your Majesty has come home safely."

31 Barzillai, from Gilead, had also come down from Rogelim to escort the king across the Jordan.

32 Barzillai was a very old man, eighty years old. He was very rich and had supplied the king with food while he was staying at Mahanaim.

33 The king said to him, "Come with me to Jerusalem, and I will take care of you."

34 But Barzillai answered, "I don't have long to live; why should I go with Your Majesty to Jerusalem?

35 I am already eighty years old, and nothing gives me pleasure any more. I can't taste what I eat and drink, and I can't hear the voices of singers. I would only be a burden to Your Majesty.

36 I don't deserve such a great reward. So I will go just a little way with you beyond the Jordan.

37 Then let me go back home and die near my parents' grave. Here is my son Chimham, who will serve you; take him with you, Your Majesty, and do for him as you think best."

38 The king answered, "I will take him with me and do for him whatever you want. And I will do for you anything you ask."

39 Then David and all of his men crossed the Jordan. He kissed Barzillai and gave him his blessing, and Barzillai went back home.

40 When the king had crossed, escorted by all the people of Judah and half the people of Israel, he went on to Gilgal, and Chimham went with him.

41 Then all the Israelites went to the king and said to him, "Your Majesty, why did our brothers, the men of Judah, think they had the right to take you away and escort you, your family, and your men across the Jordan?"

42 The men of Judah answered, "We did it because the king is one of us. So why should this make you angry? He hasn't paid for our food nor has he given us anything."

43 The Israelites replied, "We have ten times as many claims on King David as you have, even if he is one of you. Why do you look down on us? Don't forget that we were the first to talk about bringing the king back!" But the men of Judah were more violent in making their claims than the men of Israel.
