1 Chronicles 21
1 And Satan stoode vp against Israel, and prouoked Dauid to nomber Israel.
Satana anafuna kuvutitsa Aisraeli choncho anawutsa mtima wa Davide kuti awerenge Aisraeli.
2 Therefore Dauid said to Ioab, and to the rulers of the people, Go, and nomber Israel from Beer-sheba euen to Dan, and bring it to me, that I may knowe the nomber of them.
Choncho Davide anati kwa Yowabu pamodzi ndi atsogoleri a ankhondo, “Pitani mukawerenge Aisraeli kuyambira ku Beeriseba mpaka ku Dani. Ndipo mudzandiwuze kuti ndidziwe chiwerengero chawo.”
3 And Ioab answered, The Lord increase his people an hundreth times so many as they be, O my lord the King: are they not all my lords seruats? wherefore doeth my lord require this thing? why should he be a cause of trespasse to Israel?
Yowabu anayankha kuti, “Yehova achulukitse ankhondo ake kukhala miyandamiyanda. Mbuye wanga mfumu, kodi anthu onsewa sali pansi panu? Nʼchifukwa chiyani mbuye wanga mukufuna kuchita zimenezi? Nʼchifukwa chiyani mukufuna kuchimwitsa Israeli?”
4 Neuerthelesse the Kings word preuailed against Ioab. And Ioab departed and went thorowe all Israel, and returned to Ierusalem.
Komabe mawu a mfumu anapambana mawu a Yowabu, kotero Yowabu anapita mu Israeli monse ndipo kenaka anabwera ku Yerusalemu.
5 And Ioab gaue the nomber and summe of the people vnto Dauid: and all Israel were eleuen hundreth thousande men that drewe sword: and Iudah was foure hundreth and seuentie thousande men that drewe sword.
Yowabu anapereka chiwerengero cha anthu ankhondo kwa Davide: Mu Israeli monse munali anthu ankhondo 1,100,000 amene amadziwa kugwiritsa ntchito lupanga, kuphatikizapo anthu 470,000 a fuko la Yuda.
6 But the Leuites and Beniamin counted he not among them: for the Kings worde was abominable to Ioab.
Koma Yowabu sanaphatikizepo fuko la Levi ndi fuko la Benjamini pa chiwerengerochi, pakuti lamulo la mfumu linamuyipira.
7 And God was displeased with this thing: therefore he smote Israel.
Lamulo limeneli silinakomerenso Mulungu. Kotero Iye analanga Israeli.
8 Then Dauid saide vnto God, I haue sinned greatly, because I haue done this thing: but now, I beseech thee, remooue the iniquitie of thy seruant: for I haue done very foolishly.
Choncho Davide anati kwa Mulungu, “Ine ndachimwa kwambiri pa zimene ndachita. Tsono ndikupempha kuti mukhululuke kulakwa kwa mtumiki wanu. Ine ndachita zopusa kwambiri.”
9 And the Lord spake vnto Gad Dauids Seer, saying,
Yehova anati kwa Gadi, mlosi wa Davide,
10 Goe and tell Dauid, saying, Thus saith the Lord, I offer thee three thinges: choose thee one of them, that I may doe it vnto thee.
“Pita ukamuwuze Davide kuti, ‘Yehova akuti, Ine ndikukupatsa zinthu zitatu izi. Usankhepo chimodzi pa zimenezi choti ndikuchitire.’”
11 So Gad came to Dauid, and sayde vnto him, Thus saith the Lord, Take to thee
Choncho Gadi anapita kwa Davide ndipo anati kwa Iye, “Yehova akuti, ‘Musankhepo chimene mungakonde kuti chichitike:
12 Either three yeeres famine, or three moneths to be destroyed before thine aduersaries, and the sworde of thine enemies to take thee, or els the sworde of the Lord and pestilence in the lande three dayes, that the Angel of the Lord may destroy throughout all the coastes of Israel: nowe therefore aduise thee, what word I shall bring againe to him that sent me.
mʼdziko mukhale njala zaka zitatu, mukhale mukuthawa adani anu kwa miyezi itatu, akukukanthani ndi lupanga la Yehova, kapena mʼdziko mukhale mliri kwa masiku atatu, mngelo wa Yehova akuwononga Israeli yense.’ Ndipo tsono ganizirani bwino chomwe ndikamuyankhe amene wandituma.”
13 And Dauid said vnto Gad, I am in a wonderfull strait. let me nowe fall into the hande of the Lord: for his mercies are exceeding great, and let me not fall into the hande of man.
Davide anati kwa Gadi, “Ine ndavutika kwambiri mu mtima mwanga. Ine andilange ndi Yehova, pakuti chifundo chake ndi chachikulu kwambiri; koma ndisalangidwe ndi anthu.”
14 So the Lord sent a pestilence in Israel, and there fell of Israel seuentie thousande men.
Choncho Yehova anabweretsa mliri pa Aisraeli, ndipo unapha Aisraeli 70,000.
15 And God sent the Angel into Ierusalem to destroy it. And as he was destroying, the Lord behelde, and repented of the euill and sayde to the Angel that destroyed, It is nowe ynough, let thine hande cease. Then the Angel of the Lord stoode by the thresshing floore of Ornan the Iebusite.
Ndipo Mulungu anatumiza mngelo kuti awononge Yerusalemu. Koma pamene mngeloyo amachita zimenezi, Yehova anaona ndipo anavutika mu mtima chifukwa cha zowawazo ndipo anati kwa mngelo amene ankawononga anthu uja, “Basi kwakwanira! Leka kuwononga.” Nthawi imeneyo mngelo wa Yehova anali atayima pamalo opunthira tirigu a Arauna Myebusi.
16 And Dauid lift vp his eyes, and sawe the Angel of the Lord stande betweene the earth and the heauen with his sworde drawen in his hand, and stretched out towarde Ierusalem. Then Dauid and the Elders of Israel, which were clothed in sacke, fell vpon their faces.
Davide anakweza maso ake ndipo anaona mngelo wa Yehova atayima pakati pa dziko lapansi ndi kumwamba, mʼdzanja lake muli lupanga lotambalitsa kuloza ku Yerusalemu. Ndipo Davide ndi akuluakulu, atavala ziguduli, anadzigwetsa pansi chafufumimba.
17 And Dauid said vnto God, Is it not I that commanded to nomber the people? It is euen I that haue sinned and haue committed euil, but these sheepe what haue they done? O Lord my God, I beseech thee, let thine hande be on me and on my fathers house, and not on thy people for their destruction.
Davide anati kwa Mulungu, “Kodi si ine amene ndinalamula kuti ankhondo awerengedwe? Ine mʼbusa ndi amene ndachimwa, ndiye ndachita zoyipa. Anthuwa ali ngati nkhosa zosalakwa. Kodi iwowa achita chiyani? Inu Yehova Mulungu wanga, langani ineyo pamodzi ndi banja langa, koma musalole kuti mliriwu ukhale pa anthu anuwa.”
18 Then the Angel of the Lord commanded Gad to say to Dauid, that Dauid should goe vp, and set vp an altar vnto the Lord in the thresshing floore of Ornan the Iebusite.
Pamenepo mngelo wa Yehova analamula Gadi kuti awuze Davide kuti akamange guwa lansembe la Yehova pamalo opunthira tirigu a Arauna Myebusi.
19 So Dauid went vp according to the saying of Gad, which he had spoken in the Name of the Lord.
Ndipo Davide anapita pomvera mawu amene Gadi ananena mʼdzina la Yehova.
20 And Ornan turned about, and sawe the Angel, and his foure sonnes, that were with him, hid them selues, and Ornan thresshed wheat.
Pamene Arauna ankapuntha tirigu, anatembenuka ndipo anaona mngelo ndipo ana ake anayi aamuna amene anali naye anabisala.
21 And as Dauid came to Ornan, Ornan looked and sawe Dauid, and went out of the thresshing floore, and bowed himselfe to Dauid with his face to the grounde.
Davide anayandikira, ndipo Arauna atayangʼana ndi kumuona, anachoka popunthira tirigupo ndipo anawerama nagunditsa nkhope yake pansi pamaso pa Davide.
22 And Dauid saide to Ornan, Giue me the place of thy thresshing floore, that I may builde an altar therein vnto the Lord: giue it me for sufficient money, that the plague may be stayed from the people.
Davide anati kwa Arauna, “Undipatse malo ako opunthira tirigu kuti ndimangire Yehova guwa lansembe, kuti mliri uli pa anthuwa usiye. Undigulitse ine pa mtengo woyenera ndithu.”
23 Then Ornan saide vnto Dauid, Take it to thee, and let my lord the King do that which seemeth him good: loe, I giue thee bullockes for burnt offrings, and thresshing instruments for wood, and wheat for meate offring, I giue it all.
Arauna anati kwa Davide, “Tengani! Mbuye wanga mfumu achite chomukomera. Taonani ine ndidzapereka ngʼombe zazimuna za nsembe yopsereza, zopunthira tirigu zidzakhala nkhuni ndipo tiriguyu adzakhala chopereka chachakudya. Ndidzapereka zonsezi.”
24 And King Dauid saide to Ornan, Not so: but I will bye it for sufficient money: for I wil not take that which is thine for the Lord, nor offer burnt offrings without cost.
Koma mfumu Davide inayankha Arauna kuti, “Ayi, ine ndikuti ndipereka mtengo wathunthu. Sindingatenge chinthu chako ndi kuchipereka kwa Yehova, kapena kupereka nsembe imene sindinayigule.”
25 So Dauid gaue to Ornan for that place sixe hundreth shekels of golde by weight.
Choncho Davide analipira Arauna masekeli agolide 600 chifukwa cha malowo.
26 And Dauid built there an altar vnto the Lord, and offred burnt offrings, and peace offrings, and called vpon the Lord, and he answered him by fire from heauen vpon the altar of burnt offring.
Davide anamangira Yehova guwa lansembe pamenepo ndipo anaperekapo nsembe zopsereza ndi nsembe zachiyanjano. Iye anapemphera kwa Yehova, ndipo Yehova anayankha potumiza moto pa guwa lansembe zopsereza kuchokera kumwamba.
27 And when the Lord had spoken to the Angel, he put vp his sworde againe into his sheath.
Tsono Yehova anayankhula kwa mngelo, ndipo analowetsa lupanga lake mʼchimake.
28 At that time when Dauid sawe that the Lord had heard him in the thresshing floore of Ornan the Iebusite, then he sacrificed there.
Pa nthawi imeneyo, Davide ataona kuti Yehova wamuyankha pa malo opunthira tirigu a Arauna Myebusi, anapereka nsembe pamenepo.
29 (But the Tabernacle of the Lord which Moses had made in the wildernesse, and the altar of burnt offring were at that season in the hie place at Gibeon.
Tenti ya Yehova imene Mose anapanga mʼchipululu, ndi guwa lansembe zopsereza pa nthawi imeneyi zinali pa phiri ku Gibiyoni.
30 And Dauid could not go before it to aske counsel at God: for he was afraide of the sworde of the Angel of the Lord.)
Koma Davide sanathe kupita kumeneko kuti akapemphere pamaso pa Yehova, chifukwa amaopa lupanga la mngelo wa Yehova.
