1 Chronicles 21
1 Then Satan stands up against Israel, and persuades David to number Israel,
Satan ne dwaro hinyo jo-Israel omiyo nosundo Daudi mondo okwan jo-Israel.
2 and David says to Joab and to the heads of the people, “Go, number Israel from Beer-Sheba even to Dan, and bring [the account] to me, and I know their number.”
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 And Joab says, “YHWH adds to His people as they are one hundred times; are they not, my lord, O king, all of them for servants to my lord? Why does my lord seek this? Why is he for a cause of guilt to 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 And the word of the king [is] severe against Joab, and Joab goes out, and goes up and down in all Israel, and comes to Jerusalem.
Kata kamano ruoth notamo Joab omiyo Joab nowuok modhi e piny jo-Israel duto, bangʼe noduogo Jerusalem.
5 And Joab gives the account of the numbering of the people to David, and all Israel is one million and one hundred thousand, each drawing sword, and Judah [is] four hundred and seventy thousand, each drawing 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 And he has not numbered Levi and Benjamin in their midst, for the word of the king was abominable with Joab.
To Joab ne ok okwano jo-Lawi kod jo-Benjamin nikech nosin gi chik ruoth.
7 And it is evil in the eyes of God concerning this thing, and He strikes Israel,
Chikni ne rach ahinya e nyim wangʼ Nyasaye omiyo nokumo jo-Israel.
8 and David says to God, “I have sinned exceedingly in that I have done this thing; and now, please cause the iniquity of Your 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 YHWH speaks to Gad, seer of David, saying,
Jehova Nyasaye nowacho ne Gad ma jokor wach mar Daudi niya,
10 “Go, and you have spoken to David, saying, Thus said YHWH: I am extending three [choices] to you; choose one of these for yourself, and I do [it] to you.”
“Dhiyo iwach ni Daudi ni, ‘Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye wacho: Aketo weche adek e nyimi. Yier achiel kuomgi monego atimni.’”
11 And Gad comes to David and says to him, “Thus said YHWH: Take for yourself—
Omiyo Gad nodhi ir Daudi mowachone niya, “Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye owacho: ‘Kaw achiel kuomgi:
12 either famine for three years, or three months to be consumed from the face of your adversaries (even [for] the sword of your enemies to overtake), or three days of the sword of YHWH (even pestilence in the land, and a messenger of YHWH destroying in all the border of Israel); and now, see; what word do I return to Him who is sending 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 says to Gad, “I am greatly distressed, please let me fall into the hand of YHWH, for His mercies [are] very many, and do not let me 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 And YHWH gives a pestilence in Israel, and there falls from Israel seventy thousand men,
Omiyo Jehova Nyasaye nokelo masira kuom jo-Israel kendo nonego jo-Israel alufu piero abiriyo.
15 and God sends a messenger to Jerusalem to destroy it, and as he is destroying, YHWH has seen, and is comforted concerning the calamity, and says to the messenger who [is] destroying, “Enough now, cease your hand.” And the messenger of YHWH is 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 lifts up his eyes, and sees the messenger of YHWH standing between the earth and the heavens, and his sword [is] drawn in his hand, stretched out over Jerusalem, and David falls, and the elderly, covered with sackcloth, on 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 says to God, “Did I not command to number the people? Indeed, it [is] I who have sinned, and done great evil: and these, the flock, what did they do? O YHWH, my God, please let Your hand be on me, and on the house of my father, and not on Your people—to be plagued.”
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 messenger of YHWH commanded to Gad to say to David, “Surely David goes up to raise an altar to YHWH in 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 goes up by the word of Gad, that he spoke in the Name of YHWH.
Omiyo Daudi nodhi malo kaluwore gi wach mane Gad osewachone kuom nying Jehova Nyasaye.
20 And Ornan turns back and sees the messenger, and his four sons [are] with him hiding themselves, and Ornan is threshing wheat.
Kane Arauna dino ngano, notingʼo wangʼe ma oneno malaika, yawuote mane ni kode nopondo.
21 And David comes to Ornan, and Ornan looks attentively and sees David, and goes out from the threshing-floor, and bows himself to David—face to the earth.
Bangʼe Daudi nodhi ire, kane Arauna ogoyo wangʼe monene, nowuok kar dino mokulore auma nyaka e lowo e nyim Daudi.
22 And David says to Ornan, “Give the place of the threshing-floor to me, and I build an altar to YHWH in it; give it to me for full price, and the plague is restrained 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 says to David, “Take [it] to yourself, and my lord the king does that which is good in his eyes; see, I have given the oxen for burnt-offerings, and the threshing instruments for wood, and the wheat for a present; I have given the whole.”
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 says to Ornan, “No, for I surely buy [it] for full price; for I do not lift up that which is yours to YHWH, so as to offer a burnt-offering without cost.”
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 And David gives to Ornan six hundred shekels of gold [in] weight for the place;
Omiyo Daudi nochulo Arauna pesa mag dhahabu ma dirom kilo abiriyo mane nengo kar dinono.
26 and David builds an altar to YHWH there, and offers burnt-offerings and peace-offerings, and calls to YHWH, and He answers him from the heavens with fire on the altar of the 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 YHWH speaks to the messenger, and he turns back his sword to its sheath.
Eka Jehova Nyasaye nowuoyo gi malaika mine odwoko liganglane e olalo mare.
28 At that time, when David sees that YHWH has answered him in the threshing-floor of Ornan the Jebusite, then he sacrifices there;
E sechego Daudi notimo misengini kanyo kane oneno ni Jehova Nyasaye osedwoke e laru mar dino mar Arauna ja-Jebus.
29 and the Dwelling Place of YHWH that Moses made in the wilderness, and the altar of the burnt-offering, [are] at that time at a high place in Gibeon;
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 and David is not able to go before it to seek God, for he has been afraid because of the sword of the messenger of YHWH.
Kata kamano, Daudi ne ok nyal dhiyo bute mondo openj Nyasaye nikech ne oluoro ligangla mar malaika mar Jehova Nyasaye.
