2 Samuel 11
1 And it came to pass, at the return of the year, at the time when kings go out to battle, that David sent Joab, and his servants with him, and all Israel. And they destroyed the sons of Ammon, and besieged Rabbah. But David remained at Jerusalem.
A, i te takanga o te tau, i te wa ano e haere ai nga kingi ki te whawhai, na ka unga e Rawiri a Ioapa ratou ko ana tangata, ko Iharaira katoa; a huna iho e ratou nga tama a Amona, whakapaea ana a Rapa. Ko Rawiri ia i noho ki Hiruharama.
2 And it came to pass at evening, that David arose from off his bed, and walked upon the roof of the king's house. And from the roof he saw a woman bathing, and the woman was very beautiful to look upon.
A, i te mea ka ahiahi, na ka maranga ake a Rawiri i tona moenga, a haereere ana i runga i te tuanui o te whare o te kingi: na ka kitea iho e ia i te tuanui tetahi wahine e kaukau ana; he ataahua rawa ano te wahine ki te titiro atu.
3 And David sent and inquired after the woman. And one said, Is not this Bathsheba, the daughter of Eliam, the wife of Uriah the Hittite?
Na ka tono tangata te kingi, a ka ui mo taua wahine. Na ko te meatanga, Ehara ianei tenei i a Patehepa tamahine a Eriama, ko te wahine ia a Uria Hiti.
4 And David sent messengers, and took her. And she came in to him, and he lay with her (for she was purified from her uncleanness), and she returned to her house.
Na ka unga etahi karere e Rawiri ki te tiki i a ia; a ka haere mai ia ki a ia; a takoto tahi ana raua; kua oti hoki tona poke te pure, a hoki ana ki tona whare.
5 And the woman conceived. And she sent and told David, and said, I am with child.
Na ka hapu te wahine, a ka tono tangata ki a Rawiri, ka mea, Kua hapu ahau.
6 And David sent to Joab, saying, Send me Uriah the Hittite. And Joab sent Uriah to David.
Na ka tono tangata a Rawiri ki a Ioapa, ka mea, Tena a Uria Hiti tonoa mai ki ahau. Na tonoa ana e Ioapa a Uria ki a Rawiri.
7 And when Uriah came to him, David asked of him how Joab did, and how the people fared, and how the war prospered.
A, i te taenga mai o Uria ki a ia, ka ui a Rawiri i pehea a Ioapa, i pehea hoki te iwi, a i pehea te whawhai.
8 And David said to Uriah, Go down to thy house, and wash thy feet. And Uriah departed out of the king's house, and a gift from the king followed him.
Na ka mea a Rawiri ki a Uria, Haere ki raro, ki tou whare ki te horoi i ou waewae. Na ka puta a Uria i te whare o te kingi; a i maua i muri i a ia tetahi kai a te kingi.
9 But Uriah slept at the door of the king's house with all the servants of his lord, and did not go down to his house.
Otiia moe ana a Uria ki te tatau o te whare o te kingi i roto i nga tangata katoa a tona ariki, kihai hoki i haere ki raro, ki tona whare.
10 And when they had told David, saying, Uriah did not go down to his house, David said to Uriah, Have thou not come from a journey? Why did thou not go down to thy house?
A ka korerotia te korero ki a Rawiri, Kihai a Uria i haere ki raro, ki tona whare; na ka mea a Rawiri ki a Uria, He teka ianei katahi ano koe ka tae mai i te haere? he aha koe te haere ai ki raro, ki tou whare?
11 And Uriah said to David, The ark, and Israel, and Judah, abide in booths, and my lord Joab, and the servants of my lord, are encamped in the open field. Shall I then go into my house, to eat and to drink, and to lie with my wife? As thou live, and as thy soul lives, I will not do this thing.
Na ka mea a Uria ki a Rawiri, Kei roto te aaka i te tihokahoka, me Iharaira, me Hura; kei te mata ano o te parae toku ariki, a Ioapa ratou ko nga tangata a toku ariki e noho ana; kia haere koia ahau ki toku whare ki te kai, ki te inu, ki te tako to ki taku wahine? e ora ana koe, e ora ana hoki tou wairua, e kore tenei mea e meatia e ahau.
12 And David said to Uriah, Remain here today also, and tomorrow I will let thee depart. So Uriah abode in Jerusalem that day, and the morrow.
Na ka mea a Rawiri ki a Uria, E noho ki konei i tenei ra ano, a apopo ahau unga ai i a koe. Heoi, noho ana a Uria i taua ra, i te aonga ake ano, ki Hiruharama.
13 And when David had called him, he ate and drank before him, and he made him drunk. And at evening he went out to lie on his bed with the servants of his lord, but did not go down to his house.
Na ka karangatia ia e Rawiri, a kai ana; a meinga ana e ia kia haurangi: a i te ahiahi ka puta ki waho ki te takoto ki tona takotoranga i roto i nga tangata a tona ariki, kihai hoki i haere ki raro, ki tona whare.
14 And it came to pass in the morning, that David wrote a letter to Joab, and sent it by the hand of Uriah.
Na i te ata ka tuhituhia he pukapuka e Rawiri ki a Ioapa, o tonoa ana kia kawea e Uria.
15 And he wrote in the letter, saying, Set ye Uriah in the forefront of the hottest battle, and retire ye from him, that he may be smitten, and die.
I tuhituhi hoki ia ki te pukapuka, i mea, Me hoatu e koutou a Uria ki mua rawa, ki te wahi e nui rawa ana te whawhai, ka hoki ai i muri i a ia, kia patua ai ia, kia mate ai.
16 And it came to pass, when Joab kept watch upon the city, that he assigned Uriah to the place where he knew that valiant men were.
Na i a Ioapa e whakapae ana i te pa, ka hoatu e ia a Uria ki te wahi i mohio ai ia kei reira nga toa.
17 And the men of the city went out, and fought with Joab. And there fell some of the people, even of the servants of David, and Uriah the Hittite died also.
Na, ko te putanga atu o nga tangata o te pa ki te whawhai ki a Ioapa, ka hinga etahi o te iwi, etahi o nga tangata ake a Rawiri; i mate ano a Uria Hiti.
18 Then Joab sent and told David all the things concerning the war.
Katahi a Ioapa ka tono tangata hei korero ki a Rawiri i nga mea katoa o te whawhai.
19 And he charged the messenger, saying, When thou have made an end of telling all the things concerning the war to the king,
I ako ano ia te karere, i mea, E poto i a koe nga mea katoa o te whawhai te korero ki te kingi;
20 it shall be that, if the king's wrath arise, and he says to thee, Why did ye go so near to the city to fight? Did ye not know that they would shoot from the wall?
Na ki te ara te riri o te kingi, a ka mea ia ki a koe, He aha koutou i whakatata rawa ai ki te pa tatau ai? kahore ianei koutou i mohio ka kopere mai ratou i te taiepa?
21 Who smote Abimelech the son of Jerubbesheth? Did not a woman cast an upper millstone upon him from the wall so that he died at Thebez? Why did ye go so near the wall? Then thou shall say, Thy servant Uriah the Hittite is dead also.
Na wai a Apimereke tama a Ierupehete i patu? he teka ianei na te wahine i maka te wahi o runga o te kohatu huri ki runga ki a ia i te taiepa, a mate iho ai ki Tepehe? he aha koutou i whakatata atu ai ki te taiepa? Na mea atu, Kua mate ano tau po nonga, a Uria Hiti.
22 So the messenger went, and came and told David all that Joab had sent him.
Heoi haere ana te karere, a ka tae, korerotia ana e ia ki a Rawiri nga mea katoa i unga ai ia e Ioapa.
23 And the messenger said to David, The men prevailed against us, and came out to us into the field, and we were upon them even to the entrance of the gate.
I mea hoki te karere ki a Rawiri, I kaha rawa mai aua tangata ki a matou, a puta mai ana ki a matou ki te parae. Na whakaekea atu ana e matou, a tae noa ki te kuwaha o te keti.
24 And the shooters shot at thy servants from off the wall. And some of the king's servants are dead, and thy servant Uriah the Hittite is dead also.
Na ko te koperenga mai a nga kaikopere i te taiepa ki au tangata, mate iho etahi o nga tangata a te kingi; ko tau pononga hoki, ko Uria Hiti kua mate.
25 Then David said to the messenger, Thus thou shall say to Joab, Let not this thing displease thee, for the sword devours one as well as another. Make thy battle stronger against the city, and overthrow it. And encourage thou him.
Katahi ka mea a Rawiri ki te karere, Kia penei tau ki atu ki a Ioapa, Kei he tenei mea ki tou whakaaro, he kai noa iho hoki ta te hoari i tetahi, i tetahi: kia kaha tau whawhai ki te pa, whakangaromia. Mau ano ia e whakatenatena.
26 And when the wife of Uriah heard that Uriah her husband was dead, she made lamentation for her husband.
A, i te rongonga o te wahine a Uria kua mate tana tahu a Uria, ka tangihia e ia tana tahu.
27 And when the mourning was past, David sent and took her home to his house, and she became his wife, and bore him a son. But the thing that David had done displeased Jehovah.
A ka pahemo te tangihanga, ka tono tangata a Rawiri ki te tiki i a ia ki tona whare, a ka waiho hei wahine. mana, a ka whanau ta raua tama. Otiia i kino ki ta Ihowa titro taua mea i mea ai a Rawiri.
