2 Samuel 12
1 So then Yahweh sent Nathan the prophet unto David, —who therefore came unto him and said to him—Two men, there were in a certain city, the one, rich, and, the other, poor.
LEUM GOD El supwalla mwet palu Nathan nu yorol David. Na Nathan el som ac fahk nu sel, “Oasr mwet luo muta in siti sefanna. Sie seltal kasrup, a ma se ngia sukasrup.
2 The, rich, man had flocks and herds exceeding many;
Mwet se ma kasrup ah, pukanten sheep ac cow natul,
3 whereas the, poor, man had, nothing, —save one little lamb, which he had made his own, and sustained, and it had grown up with him and with his children, all together, —of his own morsel, used it to eat, and, out of his own cup, used it to drink, and, in his own bosom, used it to lie, and it was to him, as a daughter.
a mwet se ma sukasrup ah, sheep fusr sokofanna natul, ma el tuh molela. El karinganang sheep fusr soko ah in lohm sel sifacna, ac el wi na tulik natul ah kapak. Mukul sac el kital ke mongo nal sifacna, ac sang el nimnim ke cup na lal, ac el muta sruokol finyepal. El oakoaki sheep fusr soko ah oana in tulik mutan se natul.
4 Now there came a traveller to the rich man, but he thought it a pity to take of his own flock, or his own herd, to make ready for the wayfarer who had come to him, —so he took the lamb of his poor neighbour, and made ready for the man who had come to him.
Sie len ah mwet fufahsryesr se tuku nu in lohm sin mwet kasrup sac. Na mwet kasrup sac tia lungse uniya soko sin kosro natul ah in orala sie mongo ah nal, a el usla sheep fusr soko nutin mwet sukasrup sac ac sang orala mongo se nu sin mwet mutwata se lal ah.”
5 Then was kindled the anger of David against the man, fiercely, —and he said unto Nathan, By the life of Yahweh, doomed to death, is the man that hath done this;
David el arulana kasrkusrak sin mwet kasrup sac, ac fahk, “Nga fulahk Inen LEUM GOD moul, lah fal na mwet se ma orala ma se inge in misa!
6 and, the lamb, shall he pay back sevenfold, —because he did this thing, and, for that he had no pity.
Ke sripen lumah na sulallal se el oru ingan, el enenu na elan akfalye molin ma el eisla pacl akosr yohk liki!”
7 Then said Nathan unto David: Thou, art the man! Thus, saith Yahweh, God of Israel—I, anointed thee to be king over Israel, and, I, delivered thee out of the hand of Saul;
Nathan el fahk nu sel David, “Kom pa mwet sac! Na pa inge ma LEUM GOD lun Israel El fahk: ‘Nga oru tuh kom in tokosra lun Israel, ac nga molikomla lukel Saul.
8 and gave unto thee the household of thy lord, and the wives of thy lord, into thy bosom, and gave unto thee the house of Israel and Judah. And, if this had been too little, I could have further given thee more and more of such things.
Nga sot tokosrai lal ac mutan kial nu sum, ac nga oru tuh kom in tokosra lun Israel ac Judah. Funu sufalla ma inge, nga lukun sot pacl luo yohk liki na.
9 Wherefore, hast thou despised the word of Yahweh, by doing that which is wicked in mine eyes? Uriah the Hittite, hast thou smitten with the sword, and, his wife, hast thou taken to thyself to wife, yea, him, hast thou slain with the sword of the sons of Ammon!
Na efu kom ku seakos ma nga sapkin uh? Efu kom ku oru ma koluk se inge? Kom oru Uriah elan anwuki ke mweun ah — kom lela tuh mwet Ammon ah in unilya, na kom eisla mutan kial ah!
10 Now, therefore, the sword shall not depart from thy house, unto age-abiding times, —because thou hast despised me, and taken the wife of Uriah the Hittite to be thy wife.
Inge, in fwil nukewa tok uh, kutu sin tulik nutum uh ac fah misa ke ouiyen misa na keok mweyen kom tuh seakosyu ac eisla mutan kial Uriah ah.
11 Thus, saith Yahweh, —Behold me! raising up over thee calamity out of thine own household, and I will take thy wives, before thine eyes, and give unto thy neighbour, and he will lie with thy wives, in the eyes of this sun.
Nga fulahk nu sum lah nga ac oru tuh sie mwet in sou lom sifacna in pwanma mwe tukulkul nu fom. Kom ac fah liye ke nga ac eisla mutan kiom an ac sang nu sin sie pacna mukul, ac el ac fah oan yorolos ye mutun mwet uh.
12 For, thou, didst it, in secret, —but, I, will do this thing, before all Israel, and before the sun.
Kom tuh oru ma koluk yen lukma, a nga ac fah oru tuh ma inge in sikyak yen na kalem, tuh mwet Israel nukewa in liye.’”
13 And David said unto Nathan, I have sinned against Yahweh. Then said Nathan unto David, —Yahweh also, hath put away thy sin, thou shalt not die!
David el fahk, “Nga orekma koluk lain LEUM GOD.” Ac Nathan el fahk, “LEUM GOD El nunak munas nu sum. Kom ac tia misa.
14 Nevertheless, because thou hast greatly blasphemed Yahweh, by this thing, the very son that is born to thee, shall, die.
Tusruktu, ke sripen kom tuh arulana pilesru LEUM GOD ac oru ma inge uh, tulik se nutum inge ac misa.”
15 And Nathan departed unto his own house, —and Yahweh struck the child that the wife of Uriah had borne unto David, and it fell sick.
Na Nathan el som nu lohm sel ah. LEUM GOD El oru tuh tulik se mutan kial Uriah ah oswela nu sel David in arulana mas.
16 David therefore earnestly sought God in behalf of the boy, —and David kept a fast, and used to go in and pass the night, and lie upon the ground.
David el pre nu sin God tulik sac in kwela. El tiana lungse mongo, ac fong nukewa el ac utyak nu infukil sel ac motullana in fohk uh.
17 And the elders of his house stood up over him, to raise him from the ground, —but he would not, neither would he eat food with them.
Mwet pwapa fulat lal ac som nu yorol ac srike in oru elan tukakek tuh el srangesr, ac el tia pac lungse mongo yorolos.
18 And it came to pass, on the seventh day, that the child died, —but the servants of David feared to tell him that the child was dead, for said they—Lo! while the child was living, we spake unto him, and he hearkened not unto our voice, how then can we say unto him, The child is dead, and so he do [himself] harm?
Wik se tok ah tulik sac misa, ac mwet pwapa lal ah sangeng in fahk nu sel. Elos mu, “Ke pacl se tulik sac srakna moul, David el tia lungse topuk kut ke kut kaskas nu sel uh. Kut ac fahk fuka lah tulik se natul ah misa? Kut sensen el ac oru sie ma upa nu sel sifacna!”
19 But, when David saw that his servants were whispering among themselves, then understood David that the child was dead, —and David said unto his servants—Is the child, dead? And they answered—Dead!
Ke David el liye lah elos mahma nu sin sie sin sie, el akilen lah tulik sac misa. Na el siyuk selos, “Ku tulik sac misa?” Ac elos fahk, “Aok, el misa.”
20 Then David arose from the ground, and bathed and anointed, and changed his apparel, and, entering into the house of Yahweh, bowed himself down, —then came he into his own house, and asked, and they set before him food, and he did eat.
David el tukakek liki infohk uh, ac el yihla, ayaolla, ac kawia sifal. Na el som nu in lohm sin LEUM GOD ac alu. Ke el folokla nu lohm sel ah, el siyukyuk mongo, ac pacl se na itukyang nu sel el mutawauk mongo.
21 Then said his servants unto him, What is this thing that thou hast done? For the child’s sake, while living, thou didst fast and weep, but, as soon as the child was dead, thou didst arise and eat food.
Mwet pwapa lal ah fahk nu sel, “Kut tiana kalem ke ma kom oru inge. Ke tulik sac srakna moul ah, kom tung kacl ac srunga mongo. Na inge el tufahna misa a kom tukakek ac mongo!”
22 And he said, —While yet the child lived, I fasted, and wept, —for I said—Who knoweth whether Yahweh may not grant me favour, and the child live?
David el topuk ac fahk, “Aok, nga tuh lalo ac tung ke tulik sac srakna moul. Nga tuh nunku mu sahp LEUM GOD El ac pakoten nu sik, ac tia lela tulik sac in misa.
23 But, now, that he is dead, wherefore should I go on fasting? can I bring him back again? I am going unto him, but, he, will not come back unto me.
A inge, ke el misa tari, efu ku ngan lalo? Ya nga ku in folokonma tulik sac elan moulyak? Sie len nga ac fah som nu yen el oasr we, tuh el tia ku in foloko nu yuruk.”
24 And David consoled Bath-sheba his wife, and went in unto her, and lay with her, —and she bare a son, and called his name, Solomon, and Yahweh loved him.
Na David el akpwaryal Bathsheba, mutan kial, ac el oan yorol, na mutan sac el oswela sie wen, ac David el sang inel Solomon. LEUM GOD El lungse tulik mukul sac,
25 And he sent by the hand of Nathan the prophet, and called his name Jedidiah ["Beloved of Yah"], for Yahweh’s sake.
ac El sapkin nu sel Nathan, mwet palu, elan sang inen tulik mukul sac Jedidiah, mweyen LEUM GOD El lungse el.
26 And Joab fought against Rabbah, of the sons of Ammon, —and captured the royal city.
In pacl se inge Joab el srakna mweun lain acn Rabbah, su siti fulat lun acn Ammon, ac el apkuran in sruokya.
27 Then Joab sent messengers unto David, —and said—I have fought against Rabbah, I have also captured the city of the waters.
El supwala mwet utuk kas in tuh fahk nu sel David, “Nga utyak ac mweuni acn Rabbah, ac nga sruokya tari acn se kof lalos ah tuku we me.
28 Now, therefore, gather thou together the rest of the people, and encamp against the city, and capture it, —lest, I, capture the city, and it be called by my name.
Inge kom orani mwet mweun lula lom an, ac fahsru nu Rabbah, kom in sifacna sruokya siti uh. Nga tia lungse in fwack mu nga pa eisla uh.”
29 So David gathered together all the people, and went to Rabbah, —and fought against it, and captured it.
Ouinge David el orani mwet mweun lal ac som nu Rabbah. El mweuni acn we ac kutangla.
30 Then took he the crown of Milcom from off his head, the weight thereof, being a talent of gold, with the precious stones, and it remained on the head of David, —the spoil of the city also, brought he forth in great abundance;
David el eisla tefuro gold se liki sifen ma sruloala se pangpang Molech, god lun mwet Ammon. Toasriyen tefuro sac akuran paun itngoul limekosr. Oasr sie eot saok kac, su David el eisla sang nu ke tefuro lal sifacna. El oayapa usla ma wap pukanten liki siti sac.
31 the people also that were therein, brought he forth, and put them to the saw, and to threshing sledges of iron, and to axes of iron, and made them pass through the brickkiln, and thus used he to do unto all the cities of the sons of Ammon. And David and all the people returned unto Jerusalem.
El sap mwet we ah in fahsr orekma ke tahta, ac mwe pukpuk osra, oayapa tuhla osra, ac el akkohsyelos in orek brick. El oayapa oru lumah se inge nu sin mwet in siti srisrik nukewa in acn Ammon. Na el, ac mwet lal ah, folokla nu Jerusalem.
