< 1 Chronicles 21 >

1 And the Accuser stood up against Israel, and incited David to count Israel.
Satan ne dwaro hinyo jo-Israel omiyo nosundo Daudi mondo okwan jo-Israel.
2 And David said to Joab, and to the princes of the people, Go, number Israel from Beer-sheba' even to Dan, and bring their number to me, that I may know it.
Daudi nowachone Joab kaachiel gi jotend jolweny niya, “Dhiuru kendo ukwan jo-Israel kochakore Bersheba nyaka chop Dan, bangʼe to inyisa kar rombgi mondo mi angʼe ni gin ji adi.”
3 Then said Joab, May the Lord add unto his people, how many soever they be, a hundred-fold more: are they not all, my lord the king, my lord's servants? why then will my lord require this thing? why shall it be a cause of guiltiness for Israel?
To Joab nodwoke niya, “Mad Jehova Nyasaye med jolweny madirom nyadi mia achiel. Ruodha kendo jatenda, to donge gin duto gin jo-ruoth? To en angʼo momiyo ruoth ma en ruodha didwar timo richo machal kama ni Israel?”
4 Nevertheless the king's word remained firm against Joab; and Joab went out, and moved about throughout all Israel, and came [back] to Jerusalem.
Kata kamano ruoth notamo Joab omiyo Joab nowuok modhi e piny jo-Israel duto, bangʼe noduogo Jerusalem.
5 And Joab gave up the sum of the number of the people unto David: and there were [in] all Israel a thousand times thousand and one hundred thousand men that drew the sword: and [of] Judah were four hundred and seventy thousand men that drew the sword.
Joab nokelo ne Daudi kar kwan jolweny kama: Kuom jo-Israel ne nitie ji tara achiel gi alufu mia achiel mane nyalo tingʼo ligangla koriwore gi jo-Juda alufu mia angʼwen gi piero abiriyo.
6 But Levi and Benjamin did he not count among them: for the king's word was abominable to Joab.
To Joab ne ok okwano jo-Lawi kod jo-Benjamin nikech nosin gi chik ruoth.
7 And this thing was displeasing in the eyes of God, and he smote Israel.
Chikni ne rach ahinya e nyim wangʼ Nyasaye omiyo nokumo jo-Israel.
8 And David said unto God, I have sinned greatly, because I have done this thing; but now, I beseech thee, cause the iniquity of thy servant to pass away; for I have acted very foolishly.
Eka Daudi nowacho ni Nyasaye niya, “Asetimo richo maduongʼ kuom gima asetimoni. To koro akwayi mondo igol richoni kuom jatichni. Asetimo gima ofuwo ahinya.”
9 And the Lord spoke unto Gad, David's seer, saying,
Jehova Nyasaye nowacho ne Gad ma jokor wach mar Daudi niya,
10 Go and speak unto David, saying, Thus hath said the Lord, Three things do I offer thee: choose for thyself one of them, and I will do it unto thee.
“Dhiyo iwach ni Daudi ni, ‘Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye wacho: Aketo weche adek e nyimi. Yier achiel kuomgi monego atimni.’”
11 So Gad came to David, and said unto him, Thus hath said the Lord, Select for thyself,
Omiyo Gad nodhi ir Daudi mowachone niya, “Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye owacho: ‘Kaw achiel kuomgi:
12 Whether there shall be three years famine; or three months, to be destroyed before thy adversaries, so that the sword of thy enemies overtake thee; or that during three days the sword of the Lord, even the pestilence, shall be in the land, and an angel of the Lord destroying throughout all the boundaries of Israel? And now reflect what word I shall bring back to him that hath sent me.
higni adek mag kech, dweche adek ma wasiku biro lawoue gi ligangla ka negou kata ndalo adek mar ligangla mar Jehova Nyasaye (ma en ndalo mag dera marach e piny), ka malaika Jehova Nyasaye neko kamoro amora e piny Israel.’ Koro par ane mondo imiya dwoko matero ni ngʼama ne oora.”
13 And David said unto Gad, I am in a great strait: let me fall then into the hand of the Lord; for his mercies are very great; but let me not fall into the hand of man.
Daudi nodwoko Gad niya, “An-gi chuny lit ahinya. Ber mondo alwar e lwet Jehova Nyasaye nikech ngʼwonone duongʼ, to kik iweya mondo alwar e lwet ji.”
14 So the Lord sent a pestilence in Israel, and there fell of Israel seventy thousand men.
Omiyo Jehova Nyasaye nokelo masira kuom jo-Israel kendo nonego jo-Israel alufu piero abiriyo.
15 And God sent an angel unto Jerusalem to destroy it; but as he was destroying, the Lord looked on, and he bethought himself of the evil, and said to the angel that destroyed, It is enough: now stay thy hand. And the angel of the Lord was standing by the threshing-floor of Ornan the Jebusite.
Kendo Nyasaye nooro malaika mondo oketh Jerusalem. To kane malaikano timo kamano Jehova Nyasaye noneno mano mi okuyo nikech tim malichno mi nonyiso malaika mane nego ji niya, “Oromo! Koro dwok lweti.” Malaika mar Jehova Nyasaye noyudo ochungʼ e kar dino cham mar Arauna ja-Jebus.
16 And David lifted up his eyes, and saw the angel of the Lord standing between the earth and the heavens, with his sword drawn in his hand, stretched out over Jerusalem. Then fell David, with the elders wrapt in sackcloth, upon their faces.
Daudi nongʼiyo malo ma oneno malaika mar Jehova Nyasaye kochungo e kind polo gi piny ka otingʼo ligangla mager e lwete mane orieyo kuom Jerusalem. Bangʼe Daudi gi jodongo nopodho piny auma ka girwakore gi pien gugru.
17 And David said unto God, Was it not I that ordered to count the people? and I am the one that have sinned and have done evil indeed; but these sheep, what have they done? O Lord my God, let thy hand, I pray thee, be against me, and against my father's house, but not against thy people, that there should be a plague.
Daudi nowacho ni Jehova Nyasaye niya, “Donge an ema nagolo chik mondo okwan joma nyalo dhi e lweny? An ma an jakwath ema asetimo richo kendo aseketho. Magi to gin mana rombe, angʼo magiseketho? Yaye Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasacha, akwayi ni an ema ikuma kaachiel gi joga to kik iwe masira odongʼ kuom jogi.”
18 And the angel of the Lord spoke to Gad to say to David, that David should go up, to erect an altar unto the Lord on the threshing-floor of Ornan the Jebusite.
Bangʼe malaika mar Jehova Nyasaye nochiko Gad mondo onyis Daudi odhi malo kar dino cham ma Arauna ja-Jebus mondo oger kendo mar misango ni Jehova Nyasaye.
19 And David went up by the word of Gad, which he had spoken in the name of the Lord.
Omiyo Daudi nodhi malo kaluwore gi wach mane Gad osewachone kuom nying Jehova Nyasaye.
20 And when Ornan turned back, and saw the angel, then did he and his four sons with him hide themselves. Now Ornan was threshing wheat.
Kane Arauna dino ngano, notingʼo wangʼe ma oneno malaika, yawuote mane ni kode nopondo.
21 And as David came up to Ornan, Ornan looked up and saw David; and he went out of the threshing-floor, and bowed himself to David with his face to the ground.
Bangʼe Daudi nodhi ire, kane Arauna ogoyo wangʼe monene, nowuok kar dino mokulore auma nyaka e lowo e nyim Daudi.
22 Then said David to Ornan, “Grant me the site of this threshing-floor, that I may build thereon an altar unto the Lord: for the full price shalt thou give it unto me, so that the plague may be stayed from the people.”
Daudi nonyise niya, “Yie imiya laru mar dino cham mondo angʼiew mondo agerie kendo mar misango ni Jehova Nyasaye eka tho manego ji orum. Yie iusnago e kar romb nengone duto.”
23 And Ornan said unto David, Take it for thyself, and let my lord the king do what is good in his eyes: lo, I give the oxen for burnt-offerings, and the threshing-rollers for wood, and the wheat for the meat-offering; the whole do I give [thee].
Arauna nowacho ne Daudi niya, “Kawe! Mad ruodha ma jatenda okawe kendo otim kode gima chunye dwaro. Ne, anamiyi rwedhi mondo ichiw kaka misango miwangʼo pep, kod gige dino kaka yien kaachiel gi ngano kaka cham michiwo; abiro chiwogi duto.”
24 And king David said to Ornan, No: but I will surely buy it at the full value; for I will not take what is thine for the Lord, so as to offer burnt-offerings without paying therefore.
To Ruoth Daudi nodwoko Arauna niya, “Ooyo, nyaka achuli nengone duto mowinjore kode.” Ok anayie ngangʼ kawo ne Jehova Nyasaye giri nono kata timo misango miwangʼo pep ma ok achuloe gimoro.
25 So David gave to Ornan for the place six hundred shekels of gold by weight.
Omiyo Daudi nochulo Arauna pesa mag dhahabu ma dirom kilo abiriyo mane nengo kar dinono.
26 And David built there an altar unto the Lord, and offered burnt-offerings and peace-offerings, and he called on the Lord: and he answered him from heaven by fire upon the altar of burnt-offering.
Daudi nogero kendo mar misango ni Jehova Nyasaye kanyo kendo nochiwo misango miwangʼo pep kod chiwo mar lalruok. Noluongo Jehova Nyasaye, kendo Jehova Nyasaye nodwoke gi mach moa e polo kalwar e kendo mar misango miwangʼo pep.
27 And the Lord spoke to the angel, and he put back his sword into its sheath.
Eka Jehova Nyasaye nowuoyo gi malaika mine odwoko liganglane e olalo mare.
28 At that time when David saw that the Lord had answered him on the threshing-floor of Ornan the Jebusite, then did he sacrifice there.
E sechego Daudi notimo misengini kanyo kane oneno ni Jehova Nyasaye osedwoke e laru mar dino mar Arauna ja-Jebus.
29 But the tabernacle of the Lord, which Moses had made in the wilderness, and the altar of the burnt-offering, were at that time in the high-place at Gib'on.
Hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye mane Musa oloso e thim, kaachiel gi kendo mar misango miwangʼo pep e kindego ne pod nitiere e kar lemo man Gibeon.
30 But David was not able to go before it to inquire of God; for he was afraid because of the sword of the angel of the Lord.
Kata kamano, Daudi ne ok nyal dhiyo bute mondo openj Nyasaye nikech ne oluoro ligangla mar malaika mar Jehova Nyasaye.
