2 Samuel 12
1 And the Lord sent Nathan to David: and when he was come to him, he 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 exceeding many sheep and oxen.
Jamoko ne nigi rombe mangʼeny gi dhok,
3 But the poor man had nothing at all but one little ewe lamb, which he had bought and nourished up, and which had grown up in his house together with his children, eating of his bread, and drinking of his cup, and sleeping in his bosom: and it was unto him as a daughter.
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 And when a certain stranger was come to the rich man, he spared to take of his own sheep and oxen, to make a feast for that stranger, who was come to him, but took the poor man’s ewe, and dressed it for the man that was 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 And David’s anger being exceedingly kindled against that man, he said to Nathan: As the Lord liveth, the man that hath done this is a child of death.
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 shall restore the ewe fourfold, because he did this thing, and had no pity.
Nyaka ochul kar rombono moloyo nyadingʼwen, nikech ne otimo gima chalo kama, ka chunye onge gi kech.”
7 And Nathan said to David: Thou art the man. Thus saith the Lord the God of Israel: I anointed thee king over Israel, and I delivered thee from 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 And gave thee thy master’s house and thy master’s wives into thy bosom, and gave thee the house of Israel and Juda: and if these things be little, I shall add far greater things unto thee.
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 therefore hast thou despised the word of the Lord, to do evil in my sight? Thou hast killed Urias the Hethite with the sword, and hast taken his wife to be thy wife, and hast 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 Therefore the sword shall never depart from thy house, because thou hast despised me, and hast taken the wife of Urias the Hethite to be thy wife.
Kuom mano, negruok gi ligangla ok norum e odi, nikech ne ichaya mi ikawo chi Uria ja-Hiti mobedo mari iwuon.’
11 Thus saith the Lord: Behold, I will raise up evil against thee out of thy own house, and I will take thy wives before thy eyes I and give them to thy neighhour, and he shall lie with thy 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 thou didst it secretly: but I will do this thing in the sight of all Israel, and in the sight of the sun.
Nitimo gino apanda, to an abiro timo ma odiechiengʼ alanga e nyim jo-Israel.’”
13 And David said to Nathan: I have sinned against the Lord. And Nathan said to David: The Lord also hath taken away thy sin: thou shalt not die.
Eka Daudi nowachone Nathan niya, “Asekethone Jehova Nyasaye.” Nathan nodwoko niya, “Jehova Nyasaye oseweyoni richoni. Ok ibi tho.
14 Nevertheless, because thou hast given occasion to the enemies of the Lord to blaspheme, for this thing, the child that is born to thee, shall surely die.
To nikech gima isetimo, isemiyo jowasigu ojaro Jehova Nyasaye, omiyo wuodi monywolno biro tho.”
15 And Nathan returned to his house. The Lord also struck the child which the wife of Urias had borne to David, and his life was despaired of.
Bangʼ kane Nathan osedhi dala, Jehova Nyasaye nogoyo nyathi ma chi Uria nosenywolo ni Daudi gi tuo.
16 And David besought the Lord for the child: and David kept a fast, and going in by himself lay upon the ground.
Daudi nolamo Nyasaye mondo kik nyathi tho. Notweyo chiemo kendo nodhi e ode mi onindo piny e lowo otieno ka otieno.
17 And the ancients of his house came, to make him rise from the ground: but he would not, neither did he eat meat 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 And it came to pass on the seventh day that the child died: and the servants of David feared to tell him, that the child was dead. For they said: Behold when the child was yet alive, we spoke to him, and he would not hearken to our voice: how much more will he afflict 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 his servants whispering, he understood that the child was dead: and he said to his servants: Is the child dead? They answered him: 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 ground, and washed and anointed himself: and when he had changed his apparel, he went into the house of the Lord: and worshipped, and then he came into his own house, and he called for bread, and 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 And his servants said to him: What thing is this that thou hast done? thou didst fast and weep for the child, while it was alive, but when the child was dead, thou didst rise up, and eat 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 And he said: While the child was yet alive, I fasted and wept for him: for I said: Who knoweth whether the Lord may not give him to me, and 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 that he is dead, why should I fast? Shall I be able to bring him back any more? I shall go to him rather: but he shall 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 And David comforted Bethsabee his wife, and went in unto her, and slept with her: I and she bore a son, and he called his name Solomon, and 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 called his name, Amiable to the Lord, because the Lord loved him.
kendo nikech Jehova Nyasaye nohere, nomiyo Nathan janabi wach ni mondo ochake ni Jedidia.
26 And Joab fought against Rabbath of the children of Ammon, and laid close siege to the royal city.
Kata kamano Joab nodhi nyime kedo gi Raba e piny jo-Amon kendo nomako kar ruoth mochiel motegno.
27 And Joab sent messengers to David, saying: I have fought against Rabbath, and the city of waters is about to be taken.
Joab nooro joote ir Daudi, kowacho niya, “Asekedo gi Raba ma amako kargi mar pi.
28 Now therefore gather thou the rest of the people together, and besiege the city and take it: lest when the city shall be wasted by me, the victory be ascribed to 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 Then David gathered all the people together, and went out against Rabbath: and after fighting, he took it.
Omiyo Daudi nochoko jolweny duto modhigo Raba mi omonje kendo okawe.
30 And he took the crown of their king from his head, the weight of which was a talent of gold, set with most precious stones, and it was put upon David’s head, and the spoils of the city which were very great he carried away.
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 And bringing forth the people thereof he sawed them, and drove over them chariots armed with iron: and divided them with knives, and made them pass through brickkilns: so did he to all the cities of the children of Ammon: and David returned, with all the army 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.
