< 2 Samuel 11 >
1 And it came to pass, at the return of the same season of the year, at the time when kings go forth, that David sent Joab, and his servants with him, and all Israel; and they destroyed the children of 'Ammon, and besieged Rabbah. But David remained behind at Jerusalem.
Birraa keessa yeroo mootonni waraanaaf baʼanitti, Daawit tajaajiltoota isaatii fi loltoota Israaʼel hunda wajjin Yooʼaabin erge. Isaanis Amoonota barbadeessanii magaalaa Rabbaa jedhamtu marsan. Daawit garuu Yerusaalemitti hafe.
2 And it happened at evening-tide, that David arose from off his couch, and walked upon the roof of the king's house: and he saw from the roof a woman bathing herself; and the woman was of a very beautiful appearance.
Gaaf tokko galgala Daawit siree isaa irraa kaʼee bantii masaraa mootummaa irra asii fi achi deddeebiʼaa ture. Innis bantii gubbaa dhaabatee dubartii dhagna ishee dhiqattu tokko arge. Dubartiin sun baayʼee bareedduu turte;
3 And David sent and inquired after the woman; and some one said, Behold, this is Beth-sheba', the daughter of Eli'am, the wife of Uriyah the Hittite.
Daawitis waaʼee ishee beekuuf nama itti erge. Namichi sunis, “Isheen Batisheebaa intala Eliʼaam, niitii Uuriyaa namicha gosa Heet sanaatii mitii?” jedhe.
4 And David sent messengers, and took her; and she came in unto him, and he lay with her, and she had just purified herself from her uncleanness; and she returned unto her house.
Daawitis nama itti ergee ishee fichisiise. Isheenis gara isaa dhufte; innis ishee wajjin ciise. Isheen xuraaʼummaa ishee irraa qulqullooftee turte. Ergasii gara mana isheetti deebite.
5 And the woman conceived; and she sent and told David, and said, I am with child.
Dubartiin sun ulfooftee, “Ani ulfaaʼeera” jettee Daawititti ergaa ergite.
6 And David sent to Joab, Send unto me Uriyah the Hittite. And Joab sent Uriyah to David.
Kanaafuu Daawit, “Uuriyaa namicha gosa Heet sana naa ergi” jedhee Yooʼaabitti dhaamsa erge. Yooʼaabis gara Daawititti isa erge.
7 And when Uriyah was come unto him, David asked after the well-being of Joab, and after the well-being of the people, and how the war prospered.
Daawitis yommuu Uuriyaan gara isaa dhufetti waaʼee Yooʼaab, waaʼee loltootaatii fi haala waraanni keessa jiru isa gaafate.
8 And David said to Uriyah, Go down to thy house, and wash thy feet. And Uriyah went forth out of the king's house, and there followed him a mess of food from the king.
Ergasii immoo Daawit Uuriyaan, “Gara mana keetiitti gad buʼiitii miilla kee dhiqadhu” jedhe. Kanaafuu Uuriyaan masaraa mootiitii baʼee deeme; kennaan mootichaas isa faana ergame.
9 But Uriyah laid himself down at the door of the king's house with all the servants of his lord, and went not down to his house.
Uuriyaan garuu tajaajiltoota gooftaa isaa hunda wajjin karra masaraa mootii dura ciise malee gara mana ofii isaatti gad hin buune.
10 And they told David, saying, Uriyah is not gone down unto his house: and David said unto Uriyah, Art thou not come from a journey? why then art thou not gone down unto thy own house?
Daawitis yommuu akka Uuriyaan gara mana isaa hin deemin itti himametti, “Ati reefuu karaadhaa dhufte mitii? Maaliif gara mana keetii hin deemne?” jedhee isa gaafate.
11 Then said Uriyah unto David, The ark, and Israel, and Judah abide in booths; and my Lord Joab and the servants of my Lord are encamped in the open field: and should I alone go unto my house, to eat and to drink, and to lie with my wife? as thou livest, and as thy soul liveth, I will not do this thing.
Uuriyaan immoo Daawitiin, “Taabonnii fi Israaʼel, Yihuudaanis dunkaana keessa jiru; gooftaan koo Yooʼaabii fi namoonni gooftaa koo dirree irra bulu. Egaa ani akkamitti nyaachuu fi dhuguuf, niitii koo wajjinis rafuuf jedhee gara mana koo deema? Duʼa kee ti; ani waan akkasii hin godhu!”
12 And David said unto Uriyah, Tarry here also this day, and tomorrow will I send thee off. So Uriyah remained in Jerusalem on that day and the following.
Daawit, “Ati harʼas as buliitii ani bor sin geggeessaa” jedheen. Kanaafuu Uuriyaan gaafa sanaa fi guyyaa itti aanu Yerusaalem keessa ture.
13 And David invited him, and he ate and drank before him, and he made him drunken; and he went out in the evening to lie down on his resting-place with the servants of his lord; but to his house he did not go down.
Daawitis isa affeere; innis fuula isaa duratti nyaatee dhuge; Daawitis isa macheesse. Uuriyaan garuu halkan sana afata isaa irra tajaajiltoota gooftaa isaa gidduu ciisuuf gad baʼe malee gara mana ofii isaa hin deemne.
14 And it came to pass in the morning, that David wrote a letter to Joab, and sent it by the hand of Uriyah.
Daawitis lafti bariinaan xalayaa barreessee harkuma Uuriyaatiin Yooʼaabitti erge.
15 And he wrote in the letter, saying, Set Uriyah in front, opposite to the hottest fight, and then withdraw from behind him, that he may be smitten and die.
Xalayicha keessattis, “Iddoo waraanni itti cimetti Uuriyaa ramadi. Akka inni achitti dhaʼamee duʼuufis isa dhiisaa duubatti deebiʼaa” jedhee barreesse.
16 And it came to pass, when Joab was enclosing the city, that he placed Uriyah toward the spot of which he knew that valiant men were there.
Kanaafuu Yooʼaab utuu magaalattii marsaa jiruu iddoo akka loltoonni ciccimoon jiran beeketti Uuriyaa ramade.
17 And the men of the city went out and fought with Joab; and there fell some of the people, of the servants of David, and there died also Uriyah the Hittite.
Yommuu namoonni magaalaa sanaa itti gad baʼanii Yooʼaabin lolanitti, loltoota Daawit keessaa namoonni tokko tokko duʼan; Uuriyaan namichi gosa Heet sunis ni ajjeefame.
18 Then did Joab send, and told unto David all the events of the war.
Yooʼaabis guutummaa oduu waaʼee lola sanaa Daawitiif erge.
19 And he charged the messenger, saying, When thou hast finished telling all the events of the war to the king,
Akkana jedhees ergamaa sana ajaje; “Yommuu ati waaʼee waraana kanaa mootichatti himtee fixxutti,
20 And it happen that the king's wrath arise, and he say unto thee, Wherefore did you approach unto the city to fight? knew ye not, that they would shoot down from off the wall?
aariin mootichaa ni bobaʼa; innis akkana jedhee si gaafachuu dandaʼa; ‘Isin maaliif loluuf akkas magaalaa sanatti dhiʼaattan? Isin akka isaan dallaa irraa xiyya isinitti darbatan hin beeknee?
21 Who smote Abimelech the son of Yerubbesheth? did not a woman throw down upon him a piece of an upper mill-stone from off the wall so that he died at Thebez? why did ye approach unto the wall? then must thou say, Also thy servant Uriyah the Hittite is dead.
Eenyutu Abiimelek ilma Yirubesheet sana ajjeese? Dubartiin tokko dallaa irraa majii dhagaa daakuu itti gad dhiiftee Tebeesitti isa hin ajjeefnee? Isin maaliif akkas dallaa sanatti dhiʼaattan?’ Yoo inni waan kana si gaafate, ‘Tajaajilaan kee Uuriyaan namichi gosa Heet sunis duʼeera’ jedhii itti himi.”
22 And the messenger went, and came and told unto David all for which Joab had sent him.
Ergamaan sunis kaʼee deemee yommuu achi gaʼetti waan Yooʼaab akka inni itti himu isa ajaje hunda Daawititti hime.
23 And the messenger said unto David, Because the men overpowered us and came out against us into the field; but we set upon them, as far as the entrance of the gate.
Ergamaan sun Daawitiin akkana jedhe; “Namoonni nutti jabaatanii dirreetti gad nutti baʼan; nus ariinee gara karra magaalattiitti isaan deebifne.
24 And the archers then shot at thy servants from off the wall; and there died some of the servants of the king, and also thy servant Uriyah the Hittite is dead.
Ergasiis warri xiyya darbatan dallaa irraa tajaajiltoota keetti darbatan; namoonni mootii tokko tokkos ni duʼan. Tajaajilaan kee Uuriyaan namichi Heet sunis ni duʼe.”
25 Then said David to the messenger, Thus shalt thou say to Joab, Let this thing not be displeasing in thy eyes; for at times this, at other times the other will the sword devour; continue firmly in thy war against the city, and overthrow it: and thus do thou encourage him.
Daawitis ergamaa sanaan, “Egaa akkana jedhii Yooʼaabitti himi; ‘Wanni kun abdii si hin kutachiisin; goraadeen yeroo tokko isa tokko, yeroo kaan immoo kan biraa nyaata. Cimsii magaalattii dhaʼiitii balleessi.’ Waan kanas Yooʼaabin jajjabeessuuf jedhi” jedhe.
26 And when the wife of Uriyah heard that Uriyah her husband had died, she mourned for her lord.
Niitiin Uuriyaa yommuu akka dhirsi ishee duʼe dhageessetti ni boosseef.
27 And when the [time of] mourning was past, David sent and took her to his house, and she became his wife; and she bore him a son. But the thing which David had done was displeasing in the eyes of the Lord.
Erga yeroon booʼichaa darbee booddee Daawit mana ofii isaatti ishee fudhate; isheenis niitii isaa taatee ilma deesseef. Garuu wanni Daawit hojjete sun Waaqayyo hin gammachiisne.
