< 2 Samuel 12 >
1 The Lord sent Nathan to see David. When he got there, he said, “Once there were two men living in the same town. One was rich, and one was poor.
Aa le nirahe’ Iehovà amy Davide t’i Natane. Le nomb’ ama’e mb’eo nanao ty hoe: Teo t’indaty roe androva raike: mpañaleale ty raike, naho rarake ty raike.
2 The rich man had many thousands of sheep and cattle,
Nitsifotofoto ty lia-raike naho ty mpirai-tro’ i mpañalealey;
3 but the poor man didn't have anything but one small ewe lamb that he had bought. He cared for it, and it grew up with him and his children. It would eat from his plate and drank from his cup. It slept on his lap and was like a daughter to him.
fe nipoi’e i rarakey naho tsy ty anak’ añondry vave raike vinili’e naho nibeize’e; ie nibeizeñe ama’e naho amo keleia’eo, nihinana’e ka i tsindro’ey naho ninoñe amy fitovi’ey vaho nandre añ’araña’e eo vaho nihoe anak’ ampela ama’e.
4 One day the rich man had a visitor. He didn't want to take one of his own sheep or cattle to feed his visitor. He took the poor man's lamb instead to prepare a meal for his visitor.”
Pok’ amy mpañalealey amy zao ty mpañavelo, le nado’e, tsy nangala’e i lia-rai’ey, hañajaria’e ho a i mpañavelo nivotrak’ ama’ey, fe rinambe’e i vik’ añondri’ i rarakeiy vaho nihajarie’e ho a indaty nivotrak’ ama’ey.
5 David became absolutely furious with what that man did, and angrily told Nathan. “As the Lord lives, the man who did this should be put to death!
Niforoforo am’ indatiy ty haviñera’ i Davide; le hoe re amy Natane: Kanao veloñe t’Iehovà mañeva hakoromake indaty nanao i raha zaiy;
6 He must repay that lamb with four of his own for doing this, for being so heartless.”
vaho havaha’e in’ empatse i vik’ añondriy, amy nanoa’e o haloloañe zaoy, ie tsy niferenaiñe indatiy.
7 “You are that man!” Nathan told David. “This is what the Lord, the God of Israel, says: I anointed you king of Israel, and I saved you from Saul.
Aa hoe t’i Natane amy Davide, Ihe ‘nio ondatio. Hoe t’Iehovà Andrianañahare’ Israele: Norizako ho mpanjaka’ Israele irehe, naho rinombako am-pità’ i Saole;
8 I gave your master's house to you and placed your master's wives in your lap. I gave you the kingdom of Israel and Judah, and if that hadn't been enough, I would have given you so much more.
natoloko azo ka ty anjomban-talè’o, naho o valin-talè’oo ho añ’ araña’o, naho natoloko azo ty anjomba’ Israele naho Iehodà; aa naho niloho-kede ama’o izay ho nitompeako zao naho zao iaby.
9 So why have you treated what Lord said with contempt by doing evil in his sight? You killed Uriah the Hittite with the sword and stole his wife—you killed him using the sword of the Ammonites.
Inoñ’ arè ty nitsambolitioa’o ty tsara’ Iehovà, hanoa’o haratiañe am-pahatreavako? Zinevo’o am-pibara t’i Orià nte-Kite naho rinambe’o ho vali’o i tañanjomba’ey, ie vinono’o am-pibara’ o ana’ i Amoneo.
10 So your descendants will always face the sword that kills because you treated me with contempt and stole Uriah's wife.
Ie amy zao, le lia’e tsy hienga ty anjomba’o i fibaray amy te nitsambolitioa’o Ahiy, vaho rinambe’o ho vali’o ty vali’ i Orià.
11 This is what the Lord says: I'm going to bring disaster in you from your own family. I will take your wives before your very eyes and give them to someone else, and he will sleep openly with your wives where everyone can see.
Hoe t’Iehovà: Inao! hampitroboeko añ’ anjomba’o ao ty hankàñe, naho ho tavaneko añatrefam-pihaino’o o vali’oo naho hatoloko ami’ty marine azo, ie hifandia tihy amo vali’oo ampahatreava’ i àndroy.
12 You did it all in secret, but I will do it openly where everyone in all of Israel can see.”
Ihe nanao aze añetake fa izaho ka ro hampidodea o raha zao añatrefa’ Israele iaby naho añatrefa’ i àndroy.
13 David said to Nathan, “I have sinned against the Lord.” “The Lord has forgiven your sins. You're not going to die,” Nathan replied.
Le hoe t’i Davide amy Natane: Aman-kakeo am’ Iehovà iraho. Le hoe t’i Natane amy Davide: Fa napo’ Iehovà ka i tahi’oy; tsy hihomake irehe.
14 “But because by doing this you have treated the Lord with complete contempt, the son you have will die.”
Fe amy te nanokafa’o lalañe o rafelahi’ Iehovào amy sata’oy, hiteratera, le tsy mete tsy ho simba ty ajaja ho samahe’o.
15 Then Nathan went home. The Lord made the child that Uriah's wife had borne to David become very sick.
Nimpoly mb’añ’ anjomba’e mb’eo t’i Natane. Le pinao’ Iehovà ty ajaja sinama’ i vali’ i Oriày amy Davide, vaho narare mafe.
16 David pleaded with God on behalf of the boy. He fasted, went to his bedroom, and spent the night lying in sackcloth on the ground.
Nihalalie’ i Davide aman Añahare i ajajay, naho niliilara’ i D’avide, vaho ie nimoake ao, le mandre an-tane avao amy haleñey.
17 His senior officials approached him and tried to help him up from the ground, but he didn't want to, and he refused their appeals to eat.
Niongak’ amy zao o androanavi’ i anjombaio le nijohañe añ’ila’eo hampitroatse aze boak’an-tane; fe tsy nimete, vaho tsy nitraofa’e fikama.
18 On the seventh day the child died. But David's officials were scared to tell him that the child was dead, for they said to each other, “Look, while the child was still alive, we talked with him, and he refused to listen to us. How on earth can we tell him the child is dead? He may do something really bad!”
Ie amy andro fahafitoy, nimate i ajajay. Le nihembañe o mpitoro’ i Davideo tsy nahavany hisaontsy ama’e te simba i ajajay; fa hoe iereo: Inay, ie mbe niveloñe i ajajay, naho nisaontsen-tika le tsy hinao’e ty feon-tika; antsake te atalily aze te simba i ajajay, te mone hanolo-tsotry aze?
19 But David saw his officials were whispering among themselves, he realized that the child was dead. So he asked his officials, “Did the child die?” “Yes, he died,” they replied.
Fe nioni’ i Davide te niharo fivesoveso o mpitoro’eo vaho nifohi’ i Davide te nimate i ajajay; le hoe t’i Davide amo mpitoro’eo: Simba hao i ajajay? Le hoe iereo: Simba.
20 David got up from the ground, washed and put on scented oils, and changed his clothes. Then he went to the house of the Lord and worshiped. Afterwards he went back home, and asked for some food. So they served him a meal which he ate.
Niongake boak’ an-tane amy zao t’i Davide le nisasa naho nihosotse naho novae’e o saro’eo; le nimoak’ añ’ anjomba’ Iehovà, nitalaho; naho nimoak’ añ’anjomba’e; le nanjotsoa’ iareo mahakama t’ie nanohiñe, vaho nikama.
21 “Why are you acting like this?” his officials asked him. “While the child was still alive, you fasted and cried aloud, but now that he's dead, you get up and eat.”
Le hoe o mpitoro’eo tama’e: Ino o nanoe’o zao? ihe nililitse naho nirovetse te niveloñe i ajajay; f’ie nisimba i ajajay, le nitroatse irehe vaho mikama.
22 David replied, “While the child was still alive, I fasted and cried aloud, for I thought to myself, ‘Who knows? Maybe the Lord will be gracious to me and let him live.’
Aa le hoe re: Naho mbe niveloñe i ajajay le nililirako naho nirovetako, fa nataoko te: Ia ty mahafohiñe hera hañisok’ ahy t’Iehovà vaho hitambeloñe i ajajay?
23 But now that he's dead, what's the point for me to go on fasting? Can I bring him back again? One day I will die and go to him, but he will never come back to me.”
F’ie mate henaneo, ino ty hililirako? hahafivañom-beloñe aze hao? Toe homb’ ama’e añe iraho f’ie tsy himpoly amako.
24 David consoled his wife Bathsheba, and he made love to her. She gave birth to a son, and named him Solomon. The Lord loved the child,
Aa le nihohòe’ i Davide t’i Batesevàe vali’e, le nizilik’ ama’e ao naho niolora’e, naho nisamak’ anadahy vaho natao’e Selomò ty añara’e. Le nikokoa’ Iehovà;
25 so he sent a message through Nathan the prophet to name him Jedidiah, because the Lord loved him.
vaho nirahe’e am-pità’ i Natane mpitoky; le tinoka’e ty hoe Iedidià ty añara’e, ty amy Iehovà.
26 At this time Joab had been fighting against the Ammonite town of Rabbah, and had captured the royal fortress.
Ie henane zay nialy amy Rekabe anak’ Amone, t’Ioabe vaho rinambe’e i rovam’ panjakay.
27 Joab sent messengers to David to tell him, “I have attacked Rabbah and I have also captured its water supply.
Aa le nampañitrike ìrak’ amy Davide re nanao ty hoe: Fa nialiako ty Rakabe, eka, fa rinambeko i rovan-dranoy.
28 So please call up the rest of the army, besiege the town, and capture it. Otherwise I will capture the city, and I will get the credit.”
Aa le atontono ty ila’ondatio naho mitobea haname i rovay, naho tavano, kera izaho ty handrambe i rovay, le ho tokaveñe ami’ty añarako.
29 So David called up the rest of the army and marched on Rabbah. He attacked it and captured it.
Aa le natonto’ i Davide ondaty iabio, naho nionjomb’e Rakabe mb’eo naho nifandraparapak’ ama’e vaho rinambe’e,
30 He took the crown from the head of their king, and it was placed on David's head. It weighed a talent of gold and was decorated with precious stones. David took a large amount of plunder from the town.
le rinambe’e ami’ty añambone’ i Malkame ty sabaka’e; talenta volamena ty lanja’e naho nampipetaham-batosoa; vaho napetak’ añambone’ i Davide. Tsifotofoto ty vara nikopahe’e amy rovay.
31 David took the inhabitants and forced them to work with saws, iron picks, and axes, and he also made them work making bricks. He did the same in all the Ammonite towns. Then David and the whole Israelite army returned to Jerusalem.
Nakare’e iaby ondatio naho nampitoloñe’e lasý naho lasarý viñe naho fekom-bý vaho nampanodore’e birike; izay ty nanoe’e amo fonga rova’ o nte Amoneo vaho nimpoly mb’e Ierosalaime añe t’i Davide naho ondaty iabio.
