1 Hou Olelesu 21
1 Sa: ida: ne da Isala: ili fi ilima bidi hamosu ima: ne dawa: i galu. E da Da: ibidi ea asigi dawa: su ganodini hamobeba: le, Da: ibidi da Isala: ili fi dunu huluane idili dedemusa: dawa: i galu.
Now Satan, designing evil against Israel, put into David's mind the impulse to take the number of Israel.
2 Amaiba: le, Da: ibidi da dadi gagui wa: i ouligisudafa amo Youa: be, amola ea afoha ouligisu dunu huluane ilima amane sia: i, “Isala: ili fi huluane fadomane fasisa asili muni na: iyado soge bega: asili na: iyado bega: doaga: le amola dunu huluane idima. Na da ili idi dawa: mu hanai gala.”
And David said to Joab and the captains of the people, Now let all Israel, from Beer-sheba to Dan, be numbered; and give me word so that I may be certain of their number.
3 Be Youa: be da amane adole i, “Hina noga: idafa! Dia Hina Gode da Isala: ili dunu ilia idi amo bagalesili, bu afae da 100 ba: ma: ne hamomu da defea. Amola amo dafawane ba: ma: ne, di da esalumu da defea. Be di, hina noga: idafa, ninia fi huluane da wadela: le hamosa: besa: le, abuliba: le amo hamomusa: hanabela: ?”
And Joab said, May the Lord make his people a hundred times more in number than they are; but, my lord king, are they not all my lord's servants? why would my lord have this done? why will he become a cause of sin to Israel?
4 Be Da: ibidi da Youa: be ea sia: i nabawane hamoma: ne logei. Youa: be da e fisili, Isala: ili dunu idimusa: asi. E da Isala: ili soge huluanedafa amo ganodini ahoanu, Yelusalemega buhagi.
But the king's word was stronger than Joab's. So Joab went out and went through all Israel and came to Jerusalem.
5 E da hina bagadema amo dunu huluane amo da gegemusa: defele esalu, amo ilia idi ema sia: ne iasu. Ilia idi da Isala: ili dunu 1,100,000 agoane amola Yuda dunu 470,000 agoane.
And Joab gave David the number of all the people; all the men of Israel, able to take up arms, were one million, one hundred thousand men; and those of Judah were four hundred and seventy thousand men, able to take up arms.
6 Youa: be da hina bagade Da: ibidi ea hamoma: ne sia: i higa: iba: le, e da Lifai amola Bediamini fi dunu hame idili dedei.
But Levi and Benjamin were not numbered among them, for Joab was disgusted with the king's order.
7 Gode da amo hou hamoi hihini ba: i. Amaiba: le, e da Isala: ili fi ilima se iasu i.
And God was not pleased with this thing; so he sent punishment on Israel.
8 Da: ibidi da Godema amane sia: i, “Na da amo hamobeba: le, wadela: le bagadedafa hamoi. Dafawane! Na da gagaoui agoane hamoi dagoi. Na gogolema: ne olofoma.”
Then David said to God, Great has been my sin in doing this; but now, be pleased to take away the sin of your servant, for I have done very foolishly.
9 Hina Gode da Ga: de (Da: ibidi ea balofede dunu) ema amane sia: i,
Then the word of the Lord came to Gad, David's seer, saying,
10 “Di Da: ibidima asili, amola ema Na da ilegesu udiana ema olelemu. Amo ilegesu hi da ilegesea, amo Na da ema hamomu.”
Go and say to David, The Lord says, Three things are offered to you: say which of them you will have, so that I may do it to you.
11 Ga: de da ema asili, Hina Gode Ea sia: i ema alofele i. E da Da: ibidima amane adole ba: i, “Di da adi ilegesala: ?
So Gad came to David and said to him, The Lord says, Take whichever you will:
12 Dia soge amo ganodini ha: i ode udiana ilegema: bela: ? O oubi udiana amoga dia ha lai da di hasalabeba: le, di sefasimu, amo ilegema: bela: ? O eso udiana Hina Gode da Ea gegesu gobiheiga dima doagala: mu amola olo bagade dia sogega madelama: ne, Ea a: igele dunu asunasimu, amo ilegema: bela: ? Di dawa: lalu, nama adole ima. Amasea, na da Hina Godema alofele adole imunu.”
Three years when there will not be enough food; or three months of war, when you will go in flight before your haters, being in great danger of the sword; or three days of the sword of the Lord, disease in the land, and the angel of the Lord taking destruction through all the land of Israel. Now give thought to the answer I am to take back to him who sent me.
13 Da: ibidi da bu adole i, “Na da bidi hamosu bagadedafa amoga sisiga: i. Be na da osobo bagade dunuga se nabimu higa: i. Hina Gode Hisu da ninima se imunu da defea. Bai e da asigisa, amola gogolema: ne olofosu dawa:”
And David said to Gad, This is a hard decision for me to make: let me come into the hands of the Lord, for great are his mercies: let me not come into the hands of men.
14 Amaiba: le, Hina Gode da olo bagade Isala: ili dunuma iasi. Olo da amogala hahabe muni, Gode ea ilegei eso idi ganodini ba: i. Olo da Isala: ili soge bega: asili, la: idi bega: doaga: le, amola Isala: ili dunu 70,000 agoane da bogogia: i ba: i.
So the Lord sent disease on Israel, causing the death of seventy thousand men.
15 Hina Gode da Ea a: igele dunu Yelusaleme wadela: lesimusa: asunasi. Be Hina Gode ea asigi dawa: su afadenene, da: i dione, a:igele dunuma sia: i, “Aligima! Bu mae wadela: lesima.” Amogalu, a:igele dunu da Yebiusaide dunu ea dio amo Alona ea widi dabasu sogebi amoga lelebe ba: i.
And God sent an angel to Jerusalem for its destruction: and when he was about to do so, the Lord saw, and had regret for the evil, and said to the angel of destruction, It is enough; do no more. Now the angel of the Lord was by the grain-floor of Ornan the Jebusite.
16 Da: ibidi da a: igele ea gegesu gobihei gaguiwane, Yelusaleme gugunufinisimusa: , osobo gadodili hamefufua esalebe ba: i. Amalalu, Da: ibidi amola Isala: ili ouligisu dunu - huluane da eboboi abulaga ga: i- ilia da beguduli osoboga mi bugila sa: i.
And David, lifting up his eyes, saw the angel of the Lord there between earth and heaven, with an uncovered sword in his hand stretched out over Jerusalem. Then David and the responsible men, clothed in haircloth, went down on their faces.
17 Da: ibidi da Hina Godema amane sia: i, “Gode! Na fawane da wadela: le hamoi. Na fawane da idili dedesu hamoma: ne sia: i. Amo hahani dunu da adi hamobela: ? Na Hina Gode! Di da na amola na sosogo ninima se imunu da defea galu. Be Dia fi dunu yolesima!”
And David said to God, Was it not I who gave the order for the people to be numbered? It is I who have done the sin and the great wrong; but these are only sheep; what have they done? let your hand, O Lord God, be lifted up against me and against my family, but not against your people to send disease on them.
18 Hina Gode Ea a: igele dunu da ema sia: beba: le, Ga: de da Da: ibidima asili, amane sia: i, “Dia Alona ea widi dabasu amoga asili, Hina Godema gobele salimusa: , oloda gaguma.”
Then the angel of the Lord gave orders to Gad to say to David that he was to go and put up an altar to the Lord on the grain-floor of Ornan the Jebusite.
19 Da: ibidi da Hina Gode Ea sia: Ga: demadi misi, amo nababeba: le, asi.
And David went up, as Gad had said in the name of the Lord.
20 Widi dabasu sogega, Alona amola egefe biyaduyale da widi dabalelebe ba: i. Ilia da a: igele ba: beba: le, Alona egefelali da wamoaligimusa: hobea: i.
And Ornan, turning back, saw the angel, and his four sons who were with him went to a secret place. Now Ornan was crushing his grain.
21 Alona da hina bagade manebe ba: beba: le, e da dabasu soge fisili, beguduli osoboga mi bugila sa: i.
And when David came, Ornan, looking, saw him, and came out from the grain-floor and went down on his face to the earth before him.
22 Da: ibidi da ema amane sia: i, “Dia widi dabasu sogebi nama bidi lama! Bai amogawi amo olo hedofama: ne, na da Hina Godema oloda hamomusa: misi. Na da amo sogebi ea bidi defele dima imunu.”
Then David said to Ornan, Give me the place where this grain-floor is, so that I may put up an altar here to the Lord: let me have it for its full price; so that this disease may be stopped among the people.
23 Alona da amane sia: i, “Defea, hina noga: idafa! Lama! Amola dia hanaiga Hina Godema gobele salima. Amola na bulamagau di oloda da: iya gobele salimusa: lama. Ilia ‘youge’ amola dabasu ifa amo lalu didima: ne lama. Na da amo huluane udigili dima iaha.”
And Ornan said to David, Take it, and let my lord the king do what seems right to him. See, I give you the oxen for burned offerings and the grain-cleaning instruments for fire-wood, and the grain for the meal offering; I give it all.
24 Be hina bagade da bu adole i, “Hame mabu! Na da amo liligi ea bidi defele dima imunu. Liligi amo na da bidi mae iawane udigili lai, amo na da na Hina Godema hame gobele salimu.”
And King David said to Ornan, No; I will certainly give you the full price for it, because I will not take for the Lord what is yours, or give a burned offering without payment.
25 Amola, e da widi dabasu sogebi, amo gouli fage 600 agoanega bidi lai.
So David gave Ornan six hundred shekels of gold by weight for the place.
26 Amalalu, Da: ibidi da Hina Godema oloda gaguli, amola amo da: iya Wadela: i Hou Dabe Ima: ne Iasu amola Hahawane Gilisili Olofele Iasu hamosu. Da: ibidi da Hina Godema sia: ne gadoi amola Hina Gode da Da: ibidi ea sia: ne gadosu nababeba: le, dabe adole i. E da muagadodili, lalu amo gobele salasu liligi gobele salimusa: iasi.
And David put up an altar there to the Lord, offering burned offerings and peace-offerings with prayers to the Lord; and he gave him an answer from heaven, sending fire on the altar of burned offering.
27 Hina Gode da Ea a: igele dunuma, ea gegesu gobihei bu salima: ne sia: i.
Then the Lord gave orders to the angel, and he put back his sword into its cover.
28 Amo hou ba: beba: le, Hina Gode da ea sia: ne gadosu amoma dabe adole i, Da: ibidi da ba: i dagoi. Amaiba: le, e da Alona widi dadabisu sogebiga oloda da: iya, gobele salasu.
At that time, when David saw that the Lord had given him an answer on the grain-floor of Ornan the Jebusite, he made an offering there.
29 Amo esoga, Hina Gode Ea Abula Diasu (Mousese da amo hafoga: i sogega hamoi) amola oloda amoga ilia da gobele salasu, amo da Gibione sia: ne gadosu sogebiga dialebe ba: i.
For the House of the Lord, which Moses had made in the waste land, and the altar of burned offerings, were at that time in the high place at Gibeon.
30 Be Da: ibidi da Godema nodone sia: ne gadomusa: , Gibione soge amoga masunu hamedei ba: i. Bai e da Hina Gode Ea a: igele dunu ea gegesu gobiheiba: le beda: i galu.
But David was not able to go before it to get directions from the Lord, so great was his fear of the sword of the angel of the Lord.
