< 2 Samuel 24 >

1 Again the LORD’s anger burned against Israel, and he moved David against them, saying, “Go, count Israel and Judah.”
BAWIPA teh Isarelnaw koe a lungkhuek teh, Isarelnaw hoi Judahnaw hah touk haw, telah Devit hroecoe sak hanelah a lungthin a tacuek.
2 The king said to Joab the captain of the army, who was with him, “Now go back and forth through all the tribes of Israel, from Dan even to Beersheba, and count the people, that I may know the sum of the people.”
Siangpahrang ni ama koe kaawm e ransabawi Joab koe Isarel miphun pueng Dan kho hoi Beersheba kho totouh cet awh nateh, tami nâyittouh maw tie ka panue thai nahan touk awh haw atipouh.
3 Joab said to the king, “Now may the LORD your God add to the people, however many they may be, one hundred times; and may the eyes of my lord the king see it. But why does my lord the king delight in this thing?”
Joab ni siangpahrang koevah, BAWIPA na Cathut ni taminaw moikapap lah bout a pung sak teh, a let 100 touh haiyah na hmu hanelah siangpahrang ka bawipa ni, bangkongmaw hot hah panue han na ngai telah atipouh.
4 Notwithstanding, the king’s word prevailed against Joab and against the captains of the army. Joab and the captains of the army went out from the presence of the king to count the people of Israel.
Hateiteh siangpahrang e lawk ni Joab hoi a ransanaw hah a tâ dawkvah, Joab hoi ransa kacuenaw ni taminaw touk hanelah ahni koehoi a tâco awh.
5 They passed over the Jordan and encamped in Aroer, on the right side of the city that is in the middle of the valley of Gad, and to Jazer;
Jordan tui a raka awh teh, Gad yawn lungui kaawm e Jazer koelae Aroer kho a roe awh.
6 then they came to Gilead and to the land of Tahtim Hodshi; and they came to Dan Jaan and around to Sidon,
Gilead ram hoi Tahtimhodshi ram vah a pha awh. Danjaan ram hoi Sidon tengpam ram totouh a kalup awh.
7 and came to the stronghold of Tyre, and to all the cities of the Hivites and of the Canaanites; and they went out to the south of Judah, at Beersheba.
Taire rapanim koe a pha awh teh, Hiv khonaw, Kanaan taminaw e khopuinaw koe a pha awh. Judah ram akalah thoseh, Beersheba totouh thoseh thouk a cei awh.
8 So when they had gone back and forth through all the land, they came to Jerusalem at the end of nine months and twenty days.
Ram tangkuem be a katin awh teh, thapa yung tako touh hoi a hnin 20 touh a kuep hnukkhu, Jerusalem kho dawk a pha awh.
9 Joab gave up the sum of the counting of the people to the king; and there were in Israel eight hundred thousand valiant men who drew the sword, and the men of Judah were five hundred thousand men.
Joab ni milu cayin hah siangpahrang koe a poe. Isarel dawk tahloi ka sin ni teh tarankahawi e tami 800, 000 Judahnaw dawk 500, 000 touh a pha awh.
10 David’s heart struck him after he had counted the people. David said to the LORD, “I have sinned greatly in that which I have done. But now, the LORD, put away, I beg you, the iniquity of your servant; for I have done very foolishly.”
Tami be a touk hnukkhu, Devit ni amahoima yon a kâpen. Devit ni BAWIPA koevah, ka sak e hno dawk puenghoi ka payon toe. Oe BAWIPA na san kaie yon na takhoe pouh haw. Pathu laihoi doeh hno ka sak toe telah a ti.
11 When David rose up in the morning, the LORD’s word came to the prophet Gad, David’s seer, saying,
Devit teh amom a thaw navah, BAWIPA e lawk hah Devit e profet Gad koe a pha.
12 “Go and speak to David, ‘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 na rawi han, telah a dei e lawk hah patuen dei pouh haw telah atipouh.
13 So Gad came to David, and told him, saying, “Shall seven years of famine come to you in your land? Or will you flee three months before your foes while they pursue you? Or shall there be three days’ pestilence in your land? Now answer, and consider what answer I shall return to him who sent me.”
Gad teh Devit koe a cei teh, Na ram dawk 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, kâpouk nateh, dei haw telah atipouh.
14 David said to Gad, “I am in distress. Let us fall now into the LORD’s hand, for his mercies are great. Let me not fall into man’s hand.”
Devit ni Gad koevah, kângailah a ru toe. BAWIPA e kut dawk bawt naseh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, a lungmanae teh a len. Tami e a kut dawk teh na phat sak hanh telah Gad koe a dei pouh.
15 So the LORD sent a pestilence on Israel from the morning even to the appointed time; and seventy thousand men died of the people from Dan even to Beersheba.
BAWIPA ni Isarelnaw koe amom hoi atueng a khoe e totouh, patawnae a pha sak. Dan kho hoi Beersheba kho totouh tami 70, 000 touh a due awh.
16 When the angel stretched out his hand toward Jerusalem to destroy it, the LORD relented of the disaster, and said to the angel who destroyed the people, “It is enough. Now withdraw your hand.” The LORD’s angel was by the threshing floor of Araunah the Jebusite.
Kalvan tami ni Jerusalem kho hah ka raphoe han telah, a kut a dâw navah, BAWIPA ni haw e runae dawk hoi a kamlang teh, tami ka raphoe e kalvantami koevah, a khout toe na kut dâw hanh lawi telah atipouh. Hatnavah BAWIPA e kalvantami teh, Jebusit tami Araunah e cangkatinnae teng vah ao.
17 David spoke to the LORD when he saw the angel who struck the people, and said, “Behold, I have sinned, and I have done perversely; but these sheep, what have they done? Please let your hand be against me, and against my father’s house.”
Taminaw kathetkung kalvan tami hah Devit ni a hmu navah, kai ka payon toe, hnokahawi hoeh e ka sak toe. Hatei teh hete tunaw ni bangmaw a sak awh, na kut teh kai hoi apa imthung dawk phat naseh telah BAWIPA koe a ti.
18 Gad came that day to David and said to him, “Go up, build an altar to the LORD on the threshing floor of Araunah the Jebusite.”
Hote hnin dawk Gad ni Devit koe a tho teh, cet haw. Jebusit tami Araunah e cangkatinnae teng vah BAWIPA hanelah thuengnae khoungroe na sak han telah atipouh.
19 David went up according to the saying of Gad, as the LORD commanded.
BAWIPA ni a dei e patetlah Devit ni a cei.
20 Araunah looked out, and saw the king and his servants coming on toward him. Then Araunah went out and bowed himself before the king with his face to the ground.
Hottelah siangpahrang teh a taminaw hoi a tho e hah Araunah ni a khet teh a hmu navah, alawilah a tâco teh, siangpahrang e a hmalah a tabo.
21 Araunah said, “Why has my lord the king come to his servant?” David said, “To buy your threshing floor, to build an altar to the LORD, that the plague may be stopped from afflicting the people.”
Kaie bawipa siangpahrang teh a san koe bangkongmaw a tho telah atipouh. Devit ni taminaw koe Lacik a kangkhoung thai nahan BAWIPA hanelah thuengnae sak hanelah ka ngai teh nange laikawk ka ran hanelah ka tho telah atipouh.
22 Araunah said to David, “Let my lord the king take and offer up what seems good to him. Behold, the cattle for the burnt offering, and the threshing sledges and the yokes of the oxen for the wood.
Araunah ni Devit koevah, siangpahrang ka bawipa, ahawi na tie patetlah thueng yawkaw naseh. Hmaisawi thueng nahanelah maitotannaw ao. Thing hanelah laikawk puengcang, maitonaw e puengcangnaw hai ao telah atipouh.
23 All this, O king, does Araunah give to the king.” Araunah said to the king, “May the LORD your God accept you.”
Oe siangpahrang, hetnaw pueng Araunah ni siangpahrang koevah a poe telah ati. Araunah ni siangpahrang koevah, BAWIPA na Cathut ni na coe lawi naseh telah atipouh.
24 The king said to Araunah, “No, but I will most certainly buy it from you for a price. I will not offer burnt offerings to the LORD my God which cost me nothing.” So David bought the threshing floor and the oxen for fifty shekels of silver.
Siangpahrang ni Araunah koevah telah nahoeh, aphu hoi na ran pouh han. Banghai pâbaw laipalah BAWIPA ka Cathut koe hmaisawi thuengnae ka poe mahoeh telah ati. Devit ni tangka shekel 50 touh hoi cangkatinnae hmuen hoi maitonaw hah a ran.
25 David built an altar to the LORD there, and offered burnt offerings and peace offerings. So the LORD was entreated for the land, and the plague was removed from Israel.
Devit ni haw e a hmuen koe BAWIPA hanelah thuengnae a sak teh, hmaisawi thuengnae hoi roum thuengnae a poe. BAWIPA ni Isarel ram hanelah ratoumnae lawk hah a thai teh Lacik teh a kangkhoung toe.
