2 Samuel 12
1 The LORD sent Nathan to David. He came to him, and said to him, “There were two men in one city: the one rich, and the other poor.
Jehova Nyasaye nooro Nathan ir Daudi. Kane ochopo ire nowachone niya, “Ne nitie ji ariyo moko e dala moro; achiel ne jamoko to machielo nodhier.
2 The rich man had very many flocks and herds,
Jamoko ne nigi rombe mangʼeny gi dhok,
3 but the poor man had nothing, except one little ewe lamb, which he had bought and raised. It grew up together with him and with his children. It ate of his own food, drank of his own cup, and lay in his bosom, and was like a daughter to him.
to ngʼat modhier to ne onge gimoro makmana nyarombo ma sibini achiel mane osengʼiewo. Norite maber mana kaka norito nyithinde owuon. Nyarombono nopogone chiembe mochamo, ne omodho e okombene kendo nonindo e bade. Ne ochalne mana ka nyathine ma nyako.
4 A traveler came to the rich man, and he did not want to take of his own flock and of his own herd to prepare for the wayfaring man who had come to him, but took the poor man’s lamb and prepared it for the man who had come to him.”
“Koro jawuoth moro nobiro ir jamoko-cha, to jamokono ne ok okawo achiel kuom rombe kata dhoge mondo oyangʼ ni jawuodhno mane obiro ireno. Kata kamano, nyarombo ma sibini mar jadhierno ema noyangʼone wendo mane obiro ire.”
5 David’s anger burned hot against the man, and he said to Nathan, “As the LORD lives, the man who has done this deserves to die!
Mirima malich ne omako Daudi gi ngʼatno mowachone Nathan niya, “Akwongʼora gi nying Jehova Nyasaye mangima ni ngʼat mane otimo kama owinjore otho!
6 He must restore the lamb fourfold, because he did this thing and because he had no pity!”
Nyaka ochul kar rombono moloyo nyadingʼwen, nikech ne otimo gima chalo kama, ka chunye onge gi kech.”
7 Nathan said to David, “You are the man! This is what the LORD, the God of Israel, says: ‘I anointed you king over Israel, and I delivered you out of the hand of Saul.
Eka Nathan nodimbo wach ne Daudi niya, “In e ngʼatno! Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye, ma Nyasach Israel wacho: ‘Ne awiri mondo ibed ruoth Israel, ne agoli e lwet Saulo.
8 I gave you your master’s house and your master’s wives into your bosom, and gave you the house of Israel and of Judah; and if that would have been too little, I would have added to you many more such things.
Ne amiyi od ruodhi mondo obed mari, kendo naketo monde ruodhi e lweti. Ne amiyi dhout Israel gi dhood Juda. To ka magi ne ok oromi to pod ne anyalo miyi moko.
9 Why have you despised the LORD’s word, to do that which is evil in his sight? You have struck Uriah the Hittite with the sword, have taken his wife to be your wife, and have slain him with the sword of the children of Ammon.
Angʼo momiyo isechayo wach Jehova Nyasaye ka itimo gima rach machal kama e wangʼe? Ne inego Uria ja-Hiti gi ligangla mi ikawo chiege mondo obed mari iwuon. Ne inege gi ligangla jo-Amon.
10 Now therefore the sword will never depart from your house, because you have despised me and have taken Uriah the Hittite’s wife to be your wife.’
Kuom mano, negruok gi ligangla ok norum e odi, nikech ne ichaya mi ikawo chi Uria ja-Hiti mobedo mari iwuon.’
11 “This is what the LORD says: ‘Behold, I will raise up evil against you out of your own house; and I will take your wives before your eyes and give them to your neighbor, and he will lie with your wives in the sight of this sun.
“Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye wacho: ‘Anakelni masira kowuok e odi iwuon. Mana kineno kama gi wangʼi iwuon abiro kawo mondi kendo miyogi achiel kuom joma chiegni kodi, kendo obiro terore kod mondegi odiechiengʼ alanga.
12 For you did this secretly, but I will do this thing before all Israel, and before the sun.’”
Nitimo gino apanda, to an abiro timo ma odiechiengʼ alanga e nyim jo-Israel.’”
13 David said to Nathan, “I have sinned against the LORD.” Nathan said to David, “The LORD also has put away your sin. You will not die.
Eka Daudi nowachone Nathan niya, “Asekethone Jehova Nyasaye.” Nathan nodwoko niya, “Jehova Nyasaye oseweyoni richoni. Ok ibi tho.
14 However, because by this deed you have given great occasion to the LORD’s enemies to blaspheme, the child also who is born to you will surely die.”
To nikech gima isetimo, isemiyo jowasigu ojaro Jehova Nyasaye, omiyo wuodi monywolno biro tho.”
15 Then Nathan departed to his house. The LORD struck the child that Uriah’s wife bore to David, and he was very sick.
Bangʼ kane Nathan osedhi dala, Jehova Nyasaye nogoyo nyathi ma chi Uria nosenywolo ni Daudi gi tuo.
16 David therefore begged God for the child; and David fasted, and went in and lay all night on the ground.
Daudi nolamo Nyasaye mondo kik nyathi tho. Notweyo chiemo kendo nodhi e ode mi onindo piny e lowo otieno ka otieno.
17 The elders of his house arose beside him, to raise him up from the earth; but he would not, and he did not eat bread with them.
Jodongo mag ode nochungʼ bathe mondo gichunge owe nindo piny e lowo, to notamore, kendo ne ok onyal chamo chiemo moro amora.
18 On the seventh day, the child died. David’s servants were afraid to tell him that the child was dead, for they said, “Behold, while the child was yet alive, we spoke to him and he did not listen to our voice. How will he then harm himself if we tell him that the child is dead?”
To chiengʼ mar abiriyo nyathi notho, jotij Daudi ne luor nyise ni nyathi osetho, nikech negiparo niya, “Kane nyathi pod ngima, ne wawuoyo gi Daudi to ne ok owinjowa. Koro to wadhi wacho ne nangʼo ka nyathi osetho? Onyalo timo gimoro marach.”
19 But when David saw that his servants were whispering together, David perceived that the child was dead; and David said to his servants, “Is the child dead?” They said, “He is dead.”
Daudi noneno ka jotije kuodho wach kendgi mine ongʼeyo ni nyathi osetho. Nopenjo niya, “Nyathi osetho?” Negidwoke niya, “Ee, osetho.”
20 Then David arose from the earth, and washed and anointed himself, and changed his clothing; and he came into the LORD’s house, and worshiped. Then he came to his own house; and when he requested, they set bread before him and he ate.
Daudi noa malo e lowo. Kane oseluokore, nowirore gi mo moloko lewni mane orwako, nodhi e od Jehova Nyasaye mi olemo. Bangʼe nodhi e ode owuon, mine okwayo chiemo momiye mochamo.
21 Then his servants said to him, “What is this that you have done? You fasted and wept for the child while he was alive, but when the child was dead, you rose up and ate bread.”
Jotije nopenje niya, “Itimori kama nangʼo? Kane nyathi pod ngima, ne itweyo chiemo kendo ne iywak. To ka nyathi koro osetho, to ichungʼ kendo ichiemo!”
22 He said, “While the child was yet alive, I fasted and wept; for I said, ‘Who knows whether the LORD will not be gracious to me, that the child may live?’
Nodwokogi niya, “Kane nyathi pod ngima ne atweyo chiemo kendo aywak. Nikech ne aparo ni, ‘Ngʼama dingʼe? Dipo ka Jehova Nyasaye nyalo timona ngʼwono miwe nyathi obed mangima.’
23 But now he is dead. Why should I fast? Can I bring him back again? I will go to him, but he will not return to me.”
To nikech koro osetho, angʼo dimi atwe chiemo? Bende daduoge obed mangima? An ema abiro dhi ire to en ok onyal duogo ira.”
24 David comforted Bathsheba his wife, and went in to her, and lay with her. She bore a son, and he called his name Solomon. The LORD loved him;
Daudi nohoyo Bathsheba chiege, nodhi ire mobedo kode e achiel. Nonywolo wuowi kendo negichake ni Solomon. Jehova Nyasaye ne ohere;
25 and he sent by the hand of Nathan the prophet, and he named him Jedidiah, for the LORD’s sake.
kendo nikech Jehova Nyasaye nohere, nomiyo Nathan janabi wach ni mondo ochake ni Jedidia.
26 Now Joab fought against Rabbah of the children of Ammon, and took the royal city.
Kata kamano Joab nodhi nyime kedo gi Raba e piny jo-Amon kendo nomako kar ruoth mochiel motegno.
27 Joab sent messengers to David, and said, “I have fought against Rabbah. Yes, I have taken the city of waters.
Joab nooro joote ir Daudi, kowacho niya, “Asekedo gi Raba ma amako kargi mar pi.
28 Now therefore gather the rest of the people together, and encamp against the city and take it; lest I take the city, and it be called by my name.”
Koro bi gi jolweny duto mondo ilwor dala maduongʼ kendo ikawe. Ka ok kamano to abiro kawo dala maduongʼno kendo ibiro luonge gi nyinga.”
29 David gathered all the people together and went to Rabbah, and fought against it and took it.
Omiyo Daudi nochoko jolweny duto modhigo Raba mi omonje kendo okawe.
30 He took the crown of their king from off his head; and its weight was a talent of gold, and in it were precious stones; and it was set on David’s head. He brought a great quantity of plunder out of the city.
Nogolo osimbo mar duongʼ ewi ruodhgi, ma pek dhahabu mane olosego ne romo kilo piero adek gangʼwen kendo noduse gi kite ma nengogi tek mi osidhne Daudi. Noyako gik mangʼeny e dala maduongʼno
31 He brought out the people who were in it, and put them to work under saws, under iron picks, under axes of iron, and made them go to the brick kiln; and he did so to all the cities of the children of Ammon. Then David and all the people returned to Jerusalem.
kendo nokawo ji duto mane ni e dalano, moketogi e tij ngʼeto gi musimeno kod tiyo gi chumbe gi ledhi; bende ne oketogi jolos matafare. Notimo ma ni mier duto mag jo-Amon. Eka Daudi gi jolwenje duto nodok Jerusalem.
