Now it came about after two full years that Absalom had sheepshearers in Baal-hazor, which is near Ephraim, and Absalom invited all the king’s sons to celebrate.

And Absalom came to the king and said, “Behold now, your servant has sheepshearers; may the king and his servants please go with your servant.”

But the king said to Absalom, “No, my son, we should not all go, so that we will not be a burden to you.” Though he urged him, he would not go; but he blessed him.

Then Absalom said, “If not, please have my brother Amnon go with us.” But the king said to him, “Why should he go with you?”

Nevertheless Absalom urged him, so he let Amnon and all the king’s sons go with him.

Then Absalom commanded his servants, saying, “See now, when Amnon’s heart is cheerful with wine, and I say to you, ‘Strike Amnon,’ then put him to death. Do not fear; have I not commanded you myself? Be courageous and be valiant.”

And the servants of Absalom did to Amnon just as Absalom had commanded. Then all the king’s sons got up and each mounted his mule and fled.

만 이 년 후에 에브라임 곁 바알하솔에서 압살롬이 양 털을 깎는 일이 있으매 압살롬이 왕의 모든 아들을 청하고

Now it came about after two full years that Absalom had sheepshearers in Baal-hazor, which is near Ephraim, and Absalom invited all the king’s sons to celebrate.

압살롬이 왕께 나아가 말하되 이제 종에게 양 털 깎는 일이 있사오니 청하건대 왕은 신하들을 데리시고 당신의 종과 함께 가사이다 하니

And Absalom came to the king and said, “Behold now, your servant has sheepshearers; may the king and his servants please go with your servant.”

왕이 압살롬에게 이르되 아니라 내 아들아 이제 우리가 다 갈 것 없다 네게 누를 끼칠까 하노라 하니라 압살롬이 그에게 간청하였으나 그가 가지 아니하고 그에게 복을 비는지라

But the king said to Absalom, “No, my son, we should not all go, so that we will not be a burden to you.” Though he urged him, he would not go; but he blessed him.

압살롬이 이르되 그렇게 하지 아니하시려거든 청하건대 내 형 암논이 우리와 함께 가게 하옵소서 왕이 그에게 이르되 그가 너와 함께 갈 것이 무엇이냐 하되

Then Absalom said, “If not, please have my brother Amnon go with us.” But the king said to him, “Why should he go with you?”

압살롬이 간청하매 왕이 암논과 왕의 모든 아들을 그와 함께 그에게 보내니라

Nevertheless Absalom urged him, so he let Amnon and all the king’s sons go with him.

압살롬이 이미 그의 종들에게 명령하여 이르기를 너희는 이제 암논의 마음이 술로 즐거워할 때를 자세히 보다가 내가 너희에게 암논을 치라 하거든 그를 죽이라 두려워하지 말라 내가 너희에게 명령한 것이 아니냐 너희는 담대히 용기를 내라 한지라

Then Absalom commanded his servants, saying, “See now, when Amnon’s heart is cheerful with wine, and I say to you, ‘Strike Amnon,’ then put him to death. Do not fear; have I not commanded you myself? Be courageous and be valiant.”

압살롬의 종들이 압살롬의 명령대로 암논에게 행하매 왕의 모든 아들들이 일어나 각기 노새를 타고 도망하니라

And the servants of Absalom did to Amnon just as Absalom had commanded. Then all the king’s sons got up and each mounted his mule and fled.
