1 Chronicles 21
1 Satan stood up against Israel, and moved David to take a census of Israel.
Hahoi Setan ni Isarelnaw taran lahoi a thaw teh, Isarelnaw milu touk sak hanelah Devit hah a tacuek.
2 David said to Joab and to the princes of the people, “Go, count Israel from Beersheba even to Dan; and bring me word, that I may know how many there are.”
Hatdawkvah, Devit ni Joab hoi a taminaw kahrawikung koe, Isarel miphun pueng Dan kho hoi Beersheba kho totouh cet awh nateh, tami nâyittouh maw tie ka panue thai nahan touk awh nateh kai koe bout na dei awh han telah atipouh.
3 Joab said, “May the LORD make his people a hundred times as many as they are. But, my lord the king, are not they all my lord’s servants? Why does my lord require this thing? Why will he be a cause of guilt to Israel?”
Hatei, Joab ni siangpahrang koevah, BAWIPA ni taminaw teh a let 100 touh haiyah pungdaw sak naseh, siangpahrang ka bawipa e misa lah koung kaawm nahoehmaw, ka bawipa ni bangkongmaw hot hah panue han na ngai, bangdawkmaw Isarelnaw kâtapoe sak hanelah na sak vaw atipouh.
4 Nevertheless the king’s word prevailed against Joab. Therefore Joab departed and went throughout all Israel, then came to Jerusalem.
Hateiteh siangpahrang e lawk teh Joab ni ek thai hoeh. Hatdawkvah, Joab ni Isarel ram pueng dawk a cei teh, Jerusalem vah bout a ban.
5 Joab gave the sum of the census of the people to David. All those of Israel were one million one hundred thousand men who drew a sword; and in Judah were four hundred seventy thousand men who drew a sword.
Joab ni tami kaawm e yit touh Devit koe bout a dei pouh. Isarel ram dawk tahloi ka patuem e 1, 100, 000 touh a pha awh.
6 But he did not count Levi and Benjamin among them, for the king’s word was abominable to Joab.
Hateiteh, Levihnaw hoi Benjaminnaw teh touk awh hoeh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, siangpahrang e lawk teh Joab hanelah panuet a tho.
7 God was displeased with this thing; therefore he struck Israel.
Hote kong teh Cathut ni a ngai hoeh dawkvah, Isarelnaw hah a thei.
8 David said to God, “I have sinned greatly, in that I have done this thing. But now put away, I beg you, the iniquity of your servant, for I have done very foolishly.”
Devit ni Cathut koe hete ka sak e dawkvah puenghoi ka payon toe. Hatei nakunghai na sanpa kai ni ka payon, kai heh na pahren nateh, na ngaithoum yawkaw ei. Bangkongtetpawiteh, pathunae hno ka sak toe telah ati.
9 The LORD spoke to Gad, David’s seer, saying,
BAWIPA ni Devit e profet Gad koe vah,
10 “Go and speak to David, saying, ‘The LORD says, “I offer you three things. Choose one of them, that I may do it to you.”’”
Cet nateh, Devit koe hettelah dei pouh. Hno kathum touh nang koe na patue. Nang dawk kai ni ka sak hane buetbuet touh kârawi leih telah dei pouh telah atipouh.
11 So Gad came to David and said to him, “The LORD says, ‘Take your choice:
Gad teh Devit koe a cei teh, BAWIPA ni hettelah a dei, na ngai e kârawi leih.
12 either three years of famine; or three months to be consumed before your foes, while the sword of your enemies overtakes you; or else three days of the sword of the LORD, even pestilence in the land, and the LORD’s angel destroying throughout all the borders of Israel. Now therefore consider what answer I shall return to him who sent me.’”
BAWIPA ni a dei e teh, kum thum touh thung takang ka tho sak maw na ngai, Nahoeh pawiteh, thapa yung thum touh tarannaw ni na pâlei maw na ngai, Nahoeh pawiteh, hnin thum touh thung Lacik ka phasak maw na ngai. Na kapatounkung koe bangtelamaw ka dei pouh han, atu kâpouk nateh, dei haw telah atipouh.
13 David said to Gad, “I am in distress. Let me fall, I pray, into the LORD’s hand, for his mercies are very great. Do not let me fall into man’s hand.”
Devit ni Gad koevah, ka lung rei a thai, kho lah king a bing. BAWIPA e kut dawk ka bawt yawkaw naseh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, a lungmanae teh a len. Tami e a kut dawk teh na phat sak hanh telah atipouh.
14 So the LORD sent a pestilence on Israel, and seventy thousand men of Israel fell.
Hatdawkvah, BAWIPA ni Isarelnaw thung lacik a pha sak teh, Isarelnaw tami 70, 000 touh a due awh.
15 God sent an angel to Jerusalem to destroy it. As he was about to destroy, the LORD saw, and he relented of the disaster, and said to the destroying angel, “It is enough. Now withdraw your hand.” the LORD’s angel was standing by the threshing floor of Ornan the Jebusite.
Hahoi Jerusalem raphoe hanelah, Cathut ni kalvantami a patoun teh, raphoe hane a kâcai navah, BAWIPA ni a khet teh, hawihoehnae sak han a noe e hah bout a kâhno. Ka raphoe e kalvantami koevah, a khout toe na kut dâw hanh lawi telah atipouh teh, BAWIPA e kalvantami teh Jebusit tami Ornan e cangkatinnae teng vah a kangdue.
16 David lifted up his eyes, and saw the LORD’s angel standing between earth and the sky, having a drawn sword in his hand stretched out over Jerusalem. Then David and the elders, clothed in sackcloth, fell on their faces.
Devit ni kho a radoung teh, BAWIPA kalvantami tahloi a rayu nalaihoi Jerusalem koelah a nue teh, talai hoi kalvan a rahak dawk a kangdue e hah a hmu. Hatdawkvah, Devit hoi kacuenaw ni buri a kâramuk awh teh, talai dawk a tabo awh.
17 David said to God, “Is not it I who commanded the people to be counted? It is even I who have sinned and done very wickedly; but these sheep, what have they done? Please let your hand, O LORD my God, be against me and against my father’s house; but not against your people, that they should be plagued.”
Devit ni Cathut koe taminaw touk hane kâ kapoekung teh kai nahoehmaw. Kai heh yonnae ka sak e, kahawihoehe poung lah hno ka sak e teh kai doeh. Hetnaw ni bangmaw a sak awh. Oe BAWIPA ka Cathut, kai hoi ka imthungnaw dawk na kut pho nateh, na taminaw ni lacik hah khang awh hanh naseh, telah ati.
18 Then the LORD’s angel commanded Gad to tell David that David should go up and raise an altar to the LORD on the threshing floor of Ornan the Jebusite.
Hatdawkvah, BAWIPA kalvantami ni Jebusit tami Ornan e cangkatinnae koevah Devit a cei vaiteh, BAWIPA hanelah thuengnae khoungroe kangdue sak hanelah, Devit koe dei pouh hanelah Gad koe kâ a poe.
19 David went up at the saying of Gad, which he spoke in the LORD’s name.
A dei e patetlah Gad ni BAWIPA min lahoi a dei pouh e patetlah Devit teh a cei.
20 Ornan turned back and saw the angel; and his four sons who were with him hid themselves. Now Ornan was threshing wheat.
Ornan ni a kamlang teh kalvantami hah a hmu. Ahni koe kaawm e a capa 4 touh a kâhro. Ornan ma teh cang a katin.
21 As David came to Ornan, Ornan looked and saw David, and went out of the threshing floor, and bowed himself to David with his face to the ground.
Hottelah Devit ni Ornan koe a pha teh, Ornan ni a khet navah, Devit hah a hmu. Cang a katin e pak a tha teh, Devit e hmalah talai dawk a tabo.
22 Then David said to Ornan, “Sell me the place of this threshing floor, that I may build an altar to the LORD on it. You shall sell it to me for the full price, that the plague may be stopped from afflicting the people.”
Devit ni BAWIPA hanelah thuengnae khoungroe ka sak thai nahanelah cangkatinnae hmuen hah na poe haw. Taminaw koehoi lacik a kâkayaw thai nahanelah, ka kuepcalah a phu na poe han telah atipouh.
23 Ornan said to David, “Take it for yourself, and let my lord the king do that which is good in his eyes. Behold, I give the oxen for burnt offerings, and the threshing instruments for wood, and the wheat for the meal offering. I give it all.”
Ornan ni Devit koe lat yawkaw, siangpahrang ka bawipa ni ahawi na tie patetlah sak yawkaw, khenhaw! hmaisawi thuengnae sak nahanelah maitotan hoi thueng hanelah cakong, tavai hoi thueng nahanelah cakang hai na poe han. Abuemlahoi koung na poe telah atipouh.
24 King David said to Ornan, “No, but I will most certainly buy it for the full price. For I will not take that which is yours for the LORD, nor offer a burnt offering that costs me nothing.”
Siangpahrang Devit ni Ornan koevah, telah nahoeh. Aphu hoi kâran han. Bangkongtetpawiteh, BAWIPA hanlah nange ka lat mahoeh. Banghai baw laipalah thuengnae sathei hah ka poe mahoeh atipouh.
25 So David gave to Ornan six hundred shekels of gold by weight for the place.
Hatdawkvah, Devit ni hote hmuen teh Ornan koe sui shekel 600 touh hoi a ran.
26 David built an altar to the LORD there, and offered burnt offerings and peace offerings, and called on the LORD; and he answered him from the sky by fire on the altar of burnt offering.
Devit ni hote hmuen koe BAWIPA hanlah khoungroe a sak teh, sathei thuengnae hoi roum thuengnae sathei poenae a sak. BAWIPA a kaw teh khoungroe dawkvah kalvan lahoi hmai hoi a pato.
27 Then the LORD commanded the angel, and he put his sword back into its sheath.
BAWIPA ni kalvantaminaw hah kâ a poe teh, tahloi teh a tabu dawk bout a pâseng.
28 At that time, when David saw that the LORD had answered him in the threshing floor of Ornan the Jebusite, then he sacrificed there.
Devit ni Jebusit tami Ornan e cangkatinnae koehoi BAWIPA ni na pato tie hah a panue torei teh, hawvah thueng a sak.
29 For the LORD’s tabernacle, which Moses made in the wilderness, and the altar of burnt offering, were at that time in the high place at Gibeon.
Hatnae tueng dawkvah, Mosi ni kahrawngum BAWIPA e lukkareiim hoi hmaisawinae khoungroe a sak e hah, Gibeon kho e hmuenrasang doeh ao rah.
30 But David could not go before it to inquire of God, for he was afraid because of the sword of the LORD’s angel.
Hateiteh, Cathut koe pouknae hei hanelah Devit ni a hmalah cet thai hoeh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, BAWIPA e kalvantami e tahloi hah a taki.
