< 2 Samuel 24 >
1 Mirima nochako omako Jehova Nyasaye kod Israel omiyo nochwalo Daudi motimo gimoro madihinygi, kowachone niya, “Dhiyo mondo ikwan jo-Israel gi jo-Juda.”
Lwaselubuya lwamvuthela uIsrayeli ulaka lukaJehova, wabavusela uDavida, esithi: Hamba ubale uIsrayeli loJuda.
2 Omiyo ruoth nowachone Joab kod jotend jolweny mane ni kode niya, “Dhiuru e dhoudi duto mag Israel kochakore Dan nyaka Bersheba mondo ukwan jolweny, eka angʼe ni gin ji adi.”
Ngakho inkosi yathi kuJowabi induna yebutho eyayilaye: Hamba khathesi ubhode ezizweni zonke zakoIsrayeli, kusukela koDani kuze kube seBherishebha, libale abantu ukuze ngazi inani labantu.
3 To Joab nodwoko ruoth niya, “Mad Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachi med jolweny nyadi mia achiel ka ruodha ma en ruoth neno gi wangʼe. To en angʼo momiyo ruoth ma en ruodha didwar timo gima chal kama?”
UJowabi wasesithi enkosini: Aluba iNkosi uNkulunkulu wakho ingandisa ebantwini, loba bebanengi kangakanani, kuphindwe ngokulikhulu, ukuthi amehlo enkosi yami, inkosi, akubone. Kodwa inkosi yami, inkosi, ithokozelani kulinto?
4 Kata kamano ruoth notamo Joab gi jotelo mag lweny; kuom mano ne giwuok e nyim ruoth mondo gidhi gikwan jolweny e Israel.
Kodwa ilizwi lenkosi lalilamandla phezu kukaJowabi laphezu kwezinduna zebutho. Ngakho uJowabi lenduna zebutho baphuma phambi kwenkosi ukuze babale abantu, uIsrayeli.
5 Bangʼ kane gisengʼado aora Jordan, negibuoro machiegni gi Aroer, man yo milambo mar dala manie geng holo, eka negikadho Gad ma gidhi nyaka Jazer.
Basebechapha iJordani, bamisa inkamba eAroweri, ngakwesokunene komuzi ophakathi kwesifula seGadi, lamaqondana leJazeri.
6 Negidhi Gilead kod gwenge mag Tatim Hodshi, mi gikadho nyaka Dan Jaan kendo negigomo ka gichiko Sidon.
Basebefika eGileyadi lelizweni leTahetimi-Hodishi; bafika eDani-Jahani, babhoda ngaseSidoni,
7 Bangʼe negichiko dala mochiel gohinga mar Turo kod dala duto mag jo-Hivi kod mago mag jo-Kanaan. Mogik, negidhi Bersheba man Negev e piny Juda.
bafika enqabeni yeTire lemizini yonke yamaHivi leyamaKhanani; baphuma baya eningizimu yakoJuda, eBherishebha.
8 Bangʼ dweche ochiko gi ndalo piero ariyo kane gisewuotho e piny duto, negidwogo Jerusalem.
Sebebhode badabula ilizwe lonke, bafika eJerusalema ekupheleni kwenyanga eziyisificamunwemunye lensuku ezingamatshumi amabili.
9 Joab nokelo ne ruoth kar kwan jolweny kama: Kuom jo-Israel ne nitie ji alufu mia aboro maroteke mane nyalo kedo gi ligangla to kuom jo-Juda ne nitie ji alufu mia abich.
UJowabi waseyinika inkosi inani lokubalwa kwabantu; njalo kwakukhona koIsrayeli amaqhawe ayizinkulungwane ezingamakhulu ayisificaminwembili ahwatsha inkemba; lamadoda akoJuda ayengamadoda ayizinkulungwane ezingamakhulu amahlanu.
10 Daudi chunye nochandore bangʼ kane osekwano jolweny, mi nowachone Jehova Nyasaye niya, “Asetimo richo maduongʼ kuom gima asetimoni. Yaye Jehova Nyasaye, akwayi mondo igol richoni kuom jatichni, nimar asetimo gima ofuwo.”
Inhliziyo kaDavida yasimtshaya emva kokuthi esebale abantu. UDavida wasesithi eNkosini: Ngonile kakhulu ngalokho engikwenzileyo. Ngakho-ke, Nkosi, ngiyakuncenga, susa ububi benceku yakho, ngoba ngenze ngobuthutha obukhulu.
11 Kane Daudi pok ochiewo kinyne gokinyi, wach Jehova Nyasaye nosebiro ne Gad janabi, mane en jakor wach mar Daudi:
Kwathi uDavida esevukile ekuseni, kwafika ilizwi leNkosi kuGadi umprofethi, umboni kaDavida, lisithi:
12 “Dhiyo iwach ni Daudi ni, ‘Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye wacho: Aketo weche adek e nyimi, yier achiel kuomgi monego atimni.’”
Hamba uthi kuDavida: Itsho njalo iNkosi ithi: Ngikubekela okuthathu; zikhethele okukodwa kukho, ukuthi ngikwenze kuwe.
13 Omiyo Gad nodhi ir Daudi mowachone niya, “Diyier mondo kech omak piny kuom higni adek? Koso diyier dweche adek kiringo wasiki malawi? Koso diyier ndalo adek mag masira? Koro par ane mondo imiya dwoko matero ni ngʼama ne oora.”
UGadi wasefika kuDavida, wamtshela wathi kuye: Kufike kuwe yini iminyaka eyisikhombisa yendlala elizweni lakini? Loba ubalekele izitha zakho inyanga ezintathu zixotshana lawe? Ingabe kube khona umatshayabhuqe wesifo okwensuku ezintathu elizweni lakini? Khathesi cabanga, ubone ukuthi yimpendulo bani engizayibuyisela kongithumileyo.
14 Daudi nodwoko Gad niya, “An-gi chuny lit ahinya. Ber mondo alwar e lwet Jehova Nyasaye, nikech ngʼwonone duongʼ, to kik iweya alwar e lwet ji.”
UDavida wasesithi kuGadi: Ngicindezelekile kakhulu; ake siwele esandleni seNkosi, ngoba izisa zayo zinkulu, kodwa kangingaweli esandleni somuntu.
15 Omiyo Jehova Nyasaye nokelo masira kuom jo-Israel chakre okinyino nyaka kinde mane oketi norumo, kendo ji alufu piero abiriyo notho chakre Dan nyaka Bersheba.
Ngakho iNkosi yasibeka umatshayabhuqe wesifo kuIsrayeli, kusukela ekuseni kwaze kwaba sesikhathini esimisiweyo; kwasekusifa ebantwini abantu abayizinkulungwane ezingamatshumi ayisikhombisa kusukela koDani kwaze kwaba seBherishebha.
16 To kane malaika orieyo bade mondo oketh Jerusalem, chuny Jehova Nyasaye ne lit nikech masirano mi nowacho ni malaika mane nego ji niya, “Oromo! Dwok lweti piny.” Malaika mar Jehova Nyasaye noyudo ochungʼ e kar dino cham mar Arauna ja-Jebus.
Lapho ingilosi iselulela isandla sayo eJerusalema ukuyibhubhisa, iNkosi yazisola ngalobobubi, yathi engilosini eyayibhubhisa abantu: Sekwanele. Khathesi finyeza isandla sakho. Ingilosi yeNkosi yayisebaleni lokubhulela likaArawuna umJebusi.
17 Kane Daudi oneno malaika mane nego ji, nowachone Jehova Nyasaye niya, “An ema asetimo richo kendo aseketho. Magi to mana rombe, angʼo magiseketho? Akwayi ni an ema ikuma kaachiel gi joga to kik iwe masira odongʼ kuom jogi.”
UDavida wasekhuluma eNkosini lapho ebona ingilosi eyayitshaya abantu, wathi: Khangela, mina ngonile, njalo mina ngenze okubi; pho, lezizimvu zenzeni? Isandla sakho ake simelane lami njalo simelane lendlu kababa.
18 Chiengʼno Gad nodhi ir Daudi mowachone niya, “Dhi malo mondo iger kendo mar misango ni Jehova Nyasaye e laru mar dino mar Arauna ja-Jebus.”
UGadi wasefika kuDavida ngalolosuku, wathi kuye: Yenyuka, umisele iNkosi ilathi ebaleni lokubhulela likaArawuna umJebusi.
19 Omiyo Daudi nodhi malo mana kaka Jehova Nyasaye nosechike kokadho kuom Gad.
UDavida wasesenyuka njengokutsho kukaGadi, njengokulaya kweNkosi.
20 Kane Arauna ogoyo wangʼe moneno ruoth gi joge kabiro ire, nowuok mokulore e nyim ruoth nyaka e lowo.
UArawuna waselunguza, wabona inkosi lenceku zayo beqhubeka besiza kuye; uArawuna wasephuma wakhothama phambi kwenkosi ngobuso bakhe emhlabathini.
21 Arauna nopenje niya, “Angʼo mokelo ruodha ma en ruoth ir jatichne?” Daudi nodwoke niya, “Abiro ngʼiewo laru mar dino cham, mondo agerie kendo mar misango ni Jehova Nyasaye, eka tho manego ji orum.”
UArawuna wasesithi: Kungani inkosi yami, inkosi, ize encekwini yayo? UDavida wasesithi: Ukuthi ngithenge kuwe ibala lokubhulela, ukuthi ngakhele iNkosi ilathi, ukuze inhlupheko ithinteke ingafiki ebantwini.
22 Arauna nowacho ne Daudi niya, “We ruodha ma en ruoth okawe kendo otim kode gima chunye dwaro mondo otimgo misango. Rwedhi mag timo misango miwangʼo pep kod yiend dino kaachiel gi jok minyalo tigo kaka yien nika.
UArawuna wasesithi kuDavida: Inkosi yami, inkosi, kayithathe inikele lokho okuhle emehlweni ayo; bona, nanzi inkabi zomnikelo wokutshiswa, lezimbulo lezinto zenkabi kube zinkuni.
23 Gigi duto, yaye ruoth, Arauna ema osechiwo ne ruoth.” Arauna nomedo wachone niya, “Mad Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachi yie kodi.”
Konke lokhu, nkosi, uArawuna wakunika inkosi; uArawuna wasesithi enkosini: INkosi uNkulunkulu wakho kayikwemukele.
24 To ruoth nodwoko Arauna niya, “Ooyo, nyaka achuli. Ok abi timo ne Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasacha misango miwangʼo pep gi gik mayudo nono.” Omiyo Daudi nochulo fedha madirom nus kilo kongʼiewogo laru mar dino kaachiel gi rwedhi.
Inkosi yasisithi kuArawuna: Hatshi, kodwa ngizakuthenga lokukuthenga kuwe ngentengo; njalo kangiyikunikela iminikelo yokutshiswa engangibizanga lutho eNkosini uNkulunkulu wami. UDavida waselithenga ibala lokubhulela lezinkabi ngamashekeli esiliva angamatshumi amahlanu.
25 Daudi nogero kendo mar misango ni Jehova Nyasaye kanyo kendo nochiwo misengini miwangʼo pep kaachiel misengini mag lalruok. Eka Jehova Nyasaye nowinjo lamo mane olemogo ni piny, kendo nogengʼo masira mane ni e piny Israel.
UDavida wasesakhela khona iNkosi ilathi, wanikela iminikelo yokutshiswa leminikelo yokuthula. Ngakho iNkosi yancengeka ngelizwe, inhlupheko yasithinteka phezu kukaIsrayeli.
