2 Samuel 12
1 And YHWH sends Nathan to David, and he comes to him, and says to him: “Two men have been in one city, one rich and one poor.
Jehova Nyasaye nooro Nathan ir Daudi. Kane ochopo ire nowachone niya, “Ne nitie ji ariyo moko e dala moro; achiel ne jamoko to machielo nodhier.
2 The rich has very many flocks and herds,
Jamoko ne nigi rombe mangʼeny gi dhok,
3 but the poor one has nothing, except one little ewe-lamb which he has bought and keeps alive. And it grows up together with him and with his sons. It eats of his morsel, and it drinks from his cup, and it lies in his bosom, and it is as a daughter to him.
to ngʼat modhier to ne onge gimoro makmana nyarombo ma sibini achiel mane osengʼiewo. Norite maber mana kaka norito nyithinde owuon. Nyarombono nopogone chiembe mochamo, ne omodho e okombene kendo nonindo e bade. Ne ochalne mana ka nyathine ma nyako.
4 And a traveler comes to the rich man, and he spares to take from his own flock, and from his own herd, to prepare for the traveling [man] who has come to him; and he takes the ewe-lamb of the poor man and prepares it for the man who has come to him.”
“Koro jawuoth moro nobiro ir jamoko-cha, to jamokono ne ok okawo achiel kuom rombe kata dhoge mondo oyangʼ ni jawuodhno mane obiro ireno. Kata kamano, nyarombo ma sibini mar jadhierno ema noyangʼone wendo mane obiro ire.”
5 And the anger of David burns against the man exceedingly, and he says to Nathan, “YHWH lives, surely the man who is doing this [is] a son of death,
Mirima malich ne omako Daudi gi ngʼatno mowachone Nathan niya, “Akwongʼora gi nying Jehova Nyasaye mangima ni ngʼat mane otimo kama owinjore otho!
6 and [for] the ewe-lamb he repays fourfold, because that he has done this thing, and because that he had no pity.”
Nyaka ochul kar rombono moloyo nyadingʼwen, nikech ne otimo gima chalo kama, ka chunye onge gi kech.”
7 And Nathan says to David, “You [are] the man! Thus said YHWH, God of Israel: I anointed you for king over Israel, and I delivered you out of the hand of Saul;
Eka Nathan nodimbo wach ne Daudi niya, “In e ngʼatno! Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye, ma Nyasach Israel wacho: ‘Ne awiri mondo ibed ruoth Israel, ne agoli e lwet Saulo.
8 and I give to you the house of your lord, and the wives of your lord, into your bosom, and I give the house of Israel and Judah to you; and if [that is] too little, then I add such and such [things] to you.
Ne amiyi od ruodhi mondo obed mari, kendo naketo monde ruodhi e lweti. Ne amiyi dhout Israel gi dhood Juda. To ka magi ne ok oromi to pod ne anyalo miyi moko.
9 Why have you despised the word of YHWH, to do evil in His eyes? You have struck Uriah the Hittite by the sword, and you have taken his wife for a wife for yourself, and you have slain him by the sword of the sons of Ammon.
Angʼo momiyo isechayo wach Jehova Nyasaye ka itimo gima rach machal kama e wangʼe? Ne inego Uria ja-Hiti gi ligangla mi ikawo chiege mondo obed mari iwuon. Ne inege gi ligangla jo-Amon.
10 And now, the sword does not turn aside from your house for all time, because you have despised Me, and take the wife of Uriah the Hittite to be for a wife for yourself;
Kuom mano, negruok gi ligangla ok norum e odi, nikech ne ichaya mi ikawo chi Uria ja-Hiti mobedo mari iwuon.’
11 thus said YHWH: Behold, I am raising up calamity against you, out of your [own] house, and have taken your wives before your eyes, and given [them] to your neighbor, and he has lain with your wives before the eyes of this sun;
“Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye wacho: ‘Anakelni masira kowuok e odi iwuon. Mana kineno kama gi wangʼi iwuon abiro kawo mondi kendo miyogi achiel kuom joma chiegni kodi, kendo obiro terore kod mondegi odiechiengʼ alanga.
12 for you have done [it] in secret, and I do this thing before all Israel, and before the sun.”
Nitimo gino apanda, to an abiro timo ma odiechiengʼ alanga e nyim jo-Israel.’”
13 And David says to Nathan, “I have sinned against YHWH.” And Nathan says to David, “Also—YHWH has caused your sin to pass away; you do not die;
Eka Daudi nowachone Nathan niya, “Asekethone Jehova Nyasaye.” Nathan nodwoko niya, “Jehova Nyasaye oseweyoni richoni. Ok ibi tho.
14 only, because you have caused the enemies of YHWH to greatly despise by this thing, also—the son who is born to you surely dies.”
To nikech gima isetimo, isemiyo jowasigu ojaro Jehova Nyasaye, omiyo wuodi monywolno biro tho.”
15 And Nathan goes to his house, and YHWH strikes the boy, whom the wife of Uriah has borne to David, and it is incurable;
Bangʼ kane Nathan osedhi dala, Jehova Nyasaye nogoyo nyathi ma chi Uria nosenywolo ni Daudi gi tuo.
16 and David seeks God for the youth, and David keeps a fast, and has gone in and lodged, and lain on the earth.
Daudi nolamo Nyasaye mondo kik nyathi tho. Notweyo chiemo kendo nodhi e ode mi onindo piny e lowo otieno ka otieno.
17 And [the] elderly of his house rise against him, to raise him up from the earth, and he has not been willing, nor has he eaten bread with them;
Jodongo mag ode nochungʼ bathe mondo gichunge owe nindo piny e lowo, to notamore, kendo ne ok onyal chamo chiemo moro amora.
18 and it comes to pass on the seventh day, that the boy dies, and the servants of David fear to declare to him that the boy is dead, for they said, “Behold, in the boy being alive we spoke to him, and he did not listen to our voice; and how do we say to him, The boy is dead? Then he has done evil.”
To chiengʼ mar abiriyo nyathi notho, jotij Daudi ne luor nyise ni nyathi osetho, nikech negiparo niya, “Kane nyathi pod ngima, ne wawuoyo gi Daudi to ne ok owinjowa. Koro to wadhi wacho ne nangʼo ka nyathi osetho? Onyalo timo gimoro marach.”
19 And David sees that his servants are whispering, and David understands that the boy is dead, and David says to his servants, “Is the boy dead?” And they say, “Dead.”
Daudi noneno ka jotije kuodho wach kendgi mine ongʼeyo ni nyathi osetho. Nopenjo niya, “Nyathi osetho?” Negidwoke niya, “Ee, osetho.”
20 And David rises from the earth, and bathes and anoints [himself], and changes his raiment, and comes into the house of YHWH, and bows himself, and comes to his house, and asks and they place bread for him, and he eats.
Daudi noa malo e lowo. Kane oseluokore, nowirore gi mo moloko lewni mane orwako, nodhi e od Jehova Nyasaye mi olemo. Bangʼe nodhi e ode owuon, mine okwayo chiemo momiye mochamo.
21 And his servants say to him, “What [is] this thing you have done? Because of the living boy you have fasted and you weep, and when the boy is dead you have risen and eat bread.”
Jotije nopenje niya, “Itimori kama nangʼo? Kane nyathi pod ngima, ne itweyo chiemo kendo ne iywak. To ka nyathi koro osetho, to ichungʼ kendo ichiemo!”
22 And he says, “While the boy is alive I have fasted and I weep, for I said, Who knows [if] YHWH pities me and the boy has lived?
Nodwokogi niya, “Kane nyathi pod ngima ne atweyo chiemo kendo aywak. Nikech ne aparo ni, ‘Ngʼama dingʼe? Dipo ka Jehova Nyasaye nyalo timona ngʼwono miwe nyathi obed mangima.’
23 And now, he has died, why [is] this—I fast? Am I able to bring him back again? I am going to him, and he does not return to me.”
To nikech koro osetho, angʼo dimi atwe chiemo? Bende daduoge obed mangima? An ema abiro dhi ire to en ok onyal duogo ira.”
24 And David comforts his wife Bathsheba, and goes in to her, and lies with her, and she bears a son, and he calls his name Solomon; and YHWH has loved him,
Daudi nohoyo Bathsheba chiege, nodhi ire mobedo kode e achiel. Nonywolo wuowi kendo negichake ni Solomon. Jehova Nyasaye ne ohere;
25 and sends by the hand of Nathan the prophet, and calls his name Jedidiah, because of YHWH.
kendo nikech Jehova Nyasaye nohere, nomiyo Nathan janabi wach ni mondo ochake ni Jedidia.
26 And Joab fights against Rabbah of the sons of Ammon, and captures the royal city,
Kata kamano Joab nodhi nyime kedo gi Raba e piny jo-Amon kendo nomako kar ruoth mochiel motegno.
27 and Joab sends messengers to David and says, “I have fought against Rabbah—I have also captured the city of waters;
Joab nooro joote ir Daudi, kowacho niya, “Asekedo gi Raba ma amako kargi mar pi.
28 and now, gather the rest of the people, and encamp against the city, and capture it, lest I capture the city, and my name has been called on it.”
Koro bi gi jolweny duto mondo ilwor dala maduongʼ kendo ikawe. Ka ok kamano to abiro kawo dala maduongʼno kendo ibiro luonge gi nyinga.”
29 And David gathers all the people, and goes to Rabbah, and fights against it, and captures it;
Omiyo Daudi nochoko jolweny duto modhigo Raba mi omonje kendo okawe.
30 and he takes the crown of their king from off his head, and its weight [is] a talent of gold, and precious stones, and it is on the head of David; and he has brought out the spoil of the city—very much;
Nogolo osimbo mar duongʼ ewi ruodhgi, ma pek dhahabu mane olosego ne romo kilo piero adek gangʼwen kendo noduse gi kite ma nengogi tek mi osidhne Daudi. Noyako gik mangʼeny e dala maduongʼno
31 and he has brought out the people who [are] in it, and sets [them] to the saw, and to cutting instruments of iron, and to axes of iron, and has caused them to pass over into the brick-kiln; and so he does to all the cities of the sons of Ammon; and David turns back, and all the people, to Jerusalem.
kendo nokawo ji duto mane ni e dalano, moketogi e tij ngʼeto gi musimeno kod tiyo gi chumbe gi ledhi; bende ne oketogi jolos matafare. Notimo ma ni mier duto mag jo-Amon. Eka Daudi gi jolwenje duto nodok Jerusalem.
