Chronicles I 21
1 And the devil stood up against Israel, and moved David to number Israel.
Seexanni Israaʼelitti kaʼee akka Daawit saba Israaʼel lakkaaʼuuf isa kakaase.
2 And king David said to Joab and to the captains of the forces, Go, number Israel from Bersabee even to Dan, and bring me [the account], and I shall know their number.
Kanaafuu Daawit Yooʼaabii fi ajajjoota loltootaatiin, “Dhaqaatii Bersheebaadhaa hamma Daaniitti Israaʼeloota lakkaaʼaa. Ergasii immoo akka ani akka isaan hammam akka baayʼatan beekuu dandaʼuuf deebiʼaatii natti himaa” jedhe.
3 And Joab said, May the Lord add to his people, a hundred-fold as many as they [are], and [let] the eyes of my lord the king see [it]: all [are] the servants of my lord. Why does my lord seek this thing? [do it not], lest it become a sin to Israel.
Yooʼaab garuu deebisee, “Waaqayyo loltoota isaa dachaa dhibba caalaa haa baayʼisu. Yaa gooftaa koo mooticha, isaan hundi garboota gooftaa kootiif bulan mitii? Gooftaan koo maaliif waan kana gochuu barbaade? Inni maaliif Israaʼelitti yakka fida?” jedhe.
4 Nevertheless the king's word prevailed against Joab; and Joab went out and passed through all Israel, and came to Jerusalem.
Taʼus dubbiin mootichaa Yooʼaabin yaada geeddarachiise; kanaafuu Yooʼaab achii baʼee guutummaa Israaʼel keessa naannaʼee Yerusaalemitti deebiʼe.
5 And Joab gave the number of the mustering of the people to David: and all Israel was a million and a hundred thousand men that drew sword: and the sons of Juda [were] four hundred and seventy thousand men that drew sword.
Yooʼaabis lakkoobsa namoota loluu dandaʼanii Daawititti hime; namoota Yihuudaa keessa jiraatan kuma dhibba afurii fi torbaatama dabalatee namoota goraadee qabachuu dandaʼan miliyoona tokkoo fi kuma dhibba tokkootu guutummaa Israaʼel keessa ture.
6 But he numbered not Levi and Benjamin among them; for the word of the king was painful to Joab.
Sababii ajajni mootichaa Yooʼaabin jibbisiiseef inni gosoota Lewwiitii fi Beniyaam itti dabalee hin lakkoofne.
7 And [there was] evil in the sight of the Lord respecting this thing; and he struck Israel.
Ajajni kun fuula Waaqaa durattis waan hamaa ture; kanaafuu inni Israaʼelin rukute.
8 And David said to God, I have sinned exceedingly, in that I have done this thing: and now, I pray you, remove the sin of your servant; for I have been exceedingly foolish.
Kana irratti Daawit Waaqaan, “Ani waan kana gochuudhaan akka malee cubbuu hojjedheera. Amma garuu akka ati balleessaa garbicha keetii dhiiftuuf sin kadhadha. Ani hojii gowwummaa guddaa hojjedheeraa” jedhe.
9 And the Lord spoke to Gad the seer, saying,
Waaqayyos Gaad raajii Daawit sanaan akkana jedhe;
10 Go and speak to David, saying, Thus says the Lord, I bring three things upon you: choose one of them for yourself, and I will do it to you.
“Dhaqiitii Daawitiin, ‘Waaqayyo akkana siin jedha: Ani filannoo sadii siifin kenna. Akka ani isa sitti fiduuf, isaan keessaa tokko filadhu’ jedhi.”
11 And Gad came to David, and said to him, Thus says the Lord, Choose for yourself,
Kanaafuu Gaad gara Daawit dhaqee akkana jedheen; “Waaqayyo akkana jedha: ‘Filannoo kee addaan baafadhu:
12 either three years of famine, or that you should flee three months from the face of your enemies, and the sword of your enemies [shall be employed] to destroy you, or that the sword of the Lord and pestilence [should be] three days in the land, and the angel of the Lord [shall be] destroying in all the inheritance of Israel. And now consider what I shall answer to him that sent the message.
Beela waggaa sadii yookaan jiʼa sadii fuula diinota keetii dura ariʼamuu fi goraadee isaaniitiin balleeffamuu yookaan guyyaa goraadee Waaqayyoo sadii jechuunis guyyoota dhaʼichi biyyattiitti buʼee ergamaan Waaqayyoo kutaa Israaʼel hunda balleessu.’ Egaa amma waan ani isa na erge sanaaf deebisu murteeffadhu.”
13 And David said to Gad, They are very hard for me, even [all] the three: let me fall now into the hands of the Lord, for his mercies [are] very abundant, and let me not fall by any means into the hands of man.
Daawit immoo Gaadiin, “Ani akka malee dhiphadheera. Waan araarri isaa akka malee guddaa taʼeef ani harka Waaqayyoo seenuu naaf wayya; garuu akka ani harka namaa seenu na hin godhin” jedhe.
14 So the Lord brought pestilence upon Israel: and there fell of Israel seventy thousand men.
Kanaafuu Waaqayyo Israaʼelitti dhaʼicha ergee namoonni Israaʼel kuma torbaatama ni dhuman.
15 And God sent an angel to Jerusalem to destroy it: and as he was destroying, the Lord saw, and repented for the evil, and said to the angel that was destroying, Let it suffice you; withhold your hand. And the angel of the Lord stood by the threshing floor of Orna the Jebusite.
Waaqni akka inni Yerusaalem balleessuuf ergamaa isaa tokko erge. Garuu utuma ergamaan Waaqayyoo sun Yerusaalemin balleessuuf qophaaʼaa jiruu Waaqayyo balaa sana argee gaabbee ergamaa isaa kan saba balleessuuf ture sanaan, “Ni gaʼa! Harka kee deebifadhu” jedhe. Yeroo sana ergamaan Waaqayyoo sun oobdii Ornaa namicha gosa Yebuus sanaa bira dhaabachaa ture.
16 And David lifted up his eyes, and saw the angel of the Lord, standing between the earth and the heaven, and his sword drawn in his hand, stretched out over Jerusalem: and David and the elders clothed in sackcloth, fell upon their faces.
Daawitis ol ilaalee ergamaa Waaqayyoo kan goraadee luqqifamee Yerusaalemitti diriirfame harka isaatti qabatee samii fi lafa gidduu dhaabachaa jiru tokko ni arge. Daawitii fi maanguddoonni wayyaa gaddaa uffatanii fuula isaa duratti addaan lafatti ni gombifaman.
17 And David said to God, [Was it] not I [that] gave orders to number the people? and I am the guilty one; I have greatly sinned: but these sheep, what have they done? O Lord God, let your hand be upon me, and upon my father's house, and not on your people for destruction, O Lord!
Daawit immoo Waaqaan, “Namni akka loltoonni lakkaaʼaman godhe ana mitii? Namni cubbuu fi balleessaa hojjete anuma. Isaan kunneen garuu hoolotaa dha. Isaan maal godhan? Yaa Waaqayyo Waaqa koo harki kee anaa fi maatii koo irra haa buʼu; garuu akka dhaʼichi kun saba kee irra turu hin godhin” jedhe.
18 And the angel of the Lord told Gad to tell David, that he should go up to erect and altar to the Lord, in the threshing floor of Orna the Jebusite.
Ergasii ergamaan Waaqayyoo akka Daawit ol baʼee oobdii Ornaa namicha gosa Yebuus sanaa keessatti iddoo aarsaa Waaqayyoof ijaaru akka inni Daawititti himu Gaadin ajaje.
19 And David went up according to the word of Gad, which he spoke in the name of the Lord.
Kanaafuu Daawit dubbii Gaad maqaa Waaqayyootiin isatti hime sanaaf ajajamee ol baʼe.
20 And Orna turned and saw the king; and he hid himself and his four sons with him. Now Orna was threshing wheat.
Ornaan utuu qamadii dhaʼuutti jiruu ol jedhee ergamaa Waaqayyoo sana arge; ilmaan isaa warri isa wajjin turan afranis ni dhokatan.
21 And David came to Orna; and Orna came forth from the threshing floor, and did obeisance to David with his face to the ground.
Ergasii Daawit achi gaʼe; Ornaanis yommuu milʼatee isa argetti oobdii sana keessaa baʼee fuula Daawit duratti addaan lafatti gombifamee sagade.
22 And David said to Orna, Give me your place of the threshing floor, and I will build upon it an altar to the Lord: give it me for its worth in money, and the plague shall cease from [among] the people.
Daawitis, “Ani akka isa irratti iddoo aarsaa Waaqayyoof tolchee akkasiin dhaʼichi saba irra buʼe kun dhaabatuuf oobdii kee naaf kenni. Gatii isaa guutuutti natti gurguri” jedheen.
23 And Orna said to David, Take it to yourself, and let my lord the king do what is right in his eyes: see, I have given the calves for a whole burnt offering, and the plow for wood, and the corn for a meat-offering; I have given all.
Ornaanis Daawitiin, “Fudhadhu! Gooftaan koo mootichi waan isatti tolu kam iyyuu haa godhu. Kunoo ani aarsaa gubamuuf sangoota, qoraaniif ulee ittiin midhaan dhaʼan, kennaa midhaan dhiʼeeffamuufis qamadii nan kenna; ani waan kana hunda nan kenna” jedhe.
24 And king David said to Orna, Nay; for I will surely buy it for its worth in money: for I will not take your property for the Lord, to offer a whole burnt offering to the Lord without cost [to myself].
Daawit Mootichi garuu Ornaadhaan, “Kun hin taʼu; ani gatii isaa guutuu siifin kenna. Ani waan kan kee taʼe Waaqayyoof hin fudhadhu yookaan waan gatii na hin baasisin aarsaa gubamuuf hin dhiʼeessu” jedhe.
25 And David gave to Orna for his place six hundred shekels of gold [by] weight.
Kanaafuu Daawit gatii lafa sanaa Ornaadhaaf warqee saqilii dhibbaa jaʼa kafale.
26 And David built there an altar to the Lord, and offered up whole burnt offerings and peace-offerings: and he cried to the Lord, and he answered him by fire out of heaven on the altar of whole burnt offerings, and [it] consumed the whole burnt offering.
Daawitis achitti iddoo aarsaa Waaqayyoof tolchee aarsaa gubamuu fi aarsaa nagaa dhiʼeesse. Innis Waaqayyoon ni waammate; Waaqayyos samiidhaa ibiddaan iddoo aarsaa gubamuu irratti isaaf deebii kenne.
27 And the Lord spoke to the angel; and he put up the sword into its sheath.
Sana booddee Waaqayyo ergamaa isaa sanatti dubbate; innis goraadee isaa manʼee isaatti ni deebise.
28 At that time when David saw that the Lord answered him in the threshing floor of Orna the Jebusite, he also sacrificed there.
Daawit yeroo sanatti akka Waaqayyo oobdii Ornaa namicha gosa Yebuus sanaa irratti deebii isaa kenne ni hubate; achittis aarsaa ni dhiʼeesse.
29 And the tabernacle of the Lord which Moses made in the wilderness, and the altar of whole burnt offerings, [were] at that time in the high place at Gabaon.
Dunkaanni Waaqayyoo kan Museen gammoojjiitti hojjetee fi iddoon aarsaa gubamuu Gibeʼoon keessa gaara sagadaa irra ture.
30 And David could not go before it to enquire of God; for he hasted not because of the sword of the angel of the Lord.
Daawit garuu sababii goraadee ergamaa Waaqayyoo sodaateef achi dhaqee fuula iddoo aarsaa sanaa duratti Waaqa kadhachuu hin dandeenye.
