< 1 Chronicles 21 >
1 And he rose up an adversary on Israel and he incited David to count Israel.
Shetani akainuka dhidi ya Israeli na kumshawishi Daudi ahesabu watu wa Israeli.
2 And he said David to Joab and to [the] leaders of the people go count Israel from Beer Sheba and to Dan and bring [it] to me so let me know number their.
Kwa hiyo Daudi akamwambia Yoabu na majemadari wa jeshi, “Nendeni mkawahesabu Waisraeli kuanzia Beer-Sheba mpaka Dani. Kisha nileteeni taarifa ili kwamba niweze kufahamu wako wangapi.”
3 And he said Joab may he add Yahweh to people his - like them a hundred times ¿ not O lord my the king [do] all of them [belong] to lord my to subjects why? does he seek this lord my why? will it become guilt for Israel.
Yoabu akajibu, “Bwana na aongeze jeshi lake mara mia na zaidi. Mfalme bwana wangu, kwani hawa wote si raiya wa bwana wangu? Kwa nini bwana wangu unataka kufanya hivi? Kwa nini kuleta hatia juu ya Israeli?”
4 And [the] word of the king it prevailed over Joab and he went out Joab and he went about in all Israel and he came Jerusalem.
Hata hivyo, neno la mfalme likawa na nguvu juu ya Yoabu; kwa hiyo Yoabu akaondoka na kuzunguka Israeli yote kisha akarudi Yerusalemu.
5 And he gave Joab [the] number of [the] muster of the people to David and it was all Israel one thousand thousands and one hundred thousand man [who] drew out a sword and Judah four hundred and seventy thousand man [who] drew out a sword.
Yoabu akampa Daudi jumla ya idadi ya watu wanaoweza kupigana. Katika Israeli kulikuwa na watu 1,100,000 ambao wangeweza kutumia upanga na katika Yuda watu 470,000.
6 And Levi and Benjamin not he enrolled in midst of them for it was abhorred [the] word of the king Joab.
Lakini Yoabu hakuwahesabu Walawi na Wabenyamini, kwa sababu alichukizwa sana na amri ya mfalme.
7 And it was displeasing in [the] eyes of God on the matter this and he struck Israel.
Amri hii ilikuwa mbaya machoni pa Mungu pia; hivyo akaiadhibu Israeli.
8 And he said David to God I have sinned exceedingly that I have done the thing this and now cause to pass away please [the] guilt of servant your for I have acted foolishly exceedingly.
Kisha Daudi akamwambia Mungu, “Nimetenda dhambi kubwa kwa kufanya jambo hili. Sasa, ninakusihi, ondoa hatia ya mtumishi wako. Nimefanya jambo la kipumbavu sana.”
9 And he spoke Yahweh to Gad [the] seer of David saying.
Bwana akamwambia Gadi, mwonaji wa Daudi,
10 Go and you will speak to David saying thus he says Yahweh three [things] I [am] holding out over you choose for yourself one from them so I may do [it] to you.
“Nenda ukamwambie Daudi, hivi ndivyo asemavyo Bwana: ‘Ninakupa wewe uchaguzi wa mambo matatu. Nichagulie mojawapo nitakalotenda dhidi yako.’”
11 And he went Gad to David and he said to him thus he says Yahweh take for yourself.
Kwa hiyo Gadi akamwendea Daudi akamwambia, “Hili ndilo Bwana asemalo: ‘Chagua:
12 Whether three years famine and or three months being swept away from before opponents your and [the] sword of enemies your - to overtaking [you] and or three days [the] sword of Yahweh and pestilence in the land and [the] angel of Yahweh destroying in all [the] territory of Israel and therefore consider what? will I bring back [the] [one who] sent me word.
miaka mitatu ya njaa, au miezi mitatu ya kushindwa na adui zako, ukipatwa na upanga wao, au siku tatu za upanga wa Bwana, yaani, siku tatu za tauni katika nchi na malaika wa Bwana akiangamiza kila mahali katika Israeli.’ Sasa basi, amua jinsi nitakavyomjibu yeye aliyenituma.”
13 And he said David to Gad it is distress to me exceedingly let me fall please in [the] hand of Yahweh for [are] great compassion his exceedingly and in [the] hand of a human may not I fall.
Daudi akamwambia Gadi, “Ninayo mahangaiko makubwa. Mimi na nianguke mikononi mwa Bwana kwa maana rehema zake ni kuu mno, lakini usiniache niangukie mikononi mwa wanadamu.”
14 And he put Yahweh a pestilence on Israel and it fell of Israel seventy thousand person[s].
Basi Bwana akatuma tauni katika Israeli, watu 70,000 wa Israeli wakafa.
15 And he sent God - an angel - to Jerusalem to destroy it and just as was destroying [it] he saw Yahweh and he relented on the calamity and he said to the angel destroying enough now let drop hand your and [the] angel of Yahweh [was] standing near [the] threshing floor of Ornan the Jebusite.
Mungu akapeleka malaika kuangamiza Yerusalemu. Lakini malaika alipokuwa akifanya hivyo, Bwana akaona na akahuzunika kwa sababu ya maafa, akamwambia yule malaika aliyekuwa anaangamiza watu, “Yatosha! Rudisha mkono wako.” Wakati huo malaika wa Bwana alikuwa amesimama katika sakafu ya kupuria nafaka ya Arauna Myebusi.
16 And he lifted up David eyes his and he saw [the] angel of Yahweh standing between the earth and between the heavens and sword his drawn in hand his [was] stretched out over Jerusalem and he fell David and the elders covered in sackcloth on faces their.
Daudi akayainua macho yake akamwona huyo malaika wa Bwana akiwa amesimama katikati ya mbingu na dunia, naye ameunyoosha upanga wake juu ya Yerusalemu tayari kuangamiza. Kisha Daudi na wazee, waliokuwa wamevaa nguo za gunia, wakaanguka kifudifudi.
17 And he said David to God ¿ not I did I say to count the people and I [am] he (the shepherd *X*) who I have sinned and exceedingly I have done evil and these the sheep what? have they done O Yahweh God my let it be please hand your on me and on [the] house of father my and on people your not to a plague.
Daudi akamwambia Mungu, “Je, si mimi ndiye niliyeamuru watu wahesabiwe? Mimi ndiye niliyetenda dhambi na kukosa. Hawa ni kondoo tu. Wamefanya nini? Ee Bwana, Mungu wangu, mkono wako na uwe juu yangu mimi na jamaa yangu, lakini usiache tauni hii iendelee juu ya watu wako.”
18 And [the] angel of Yahweh he said to Gad to say to David that - he will go up David to set up an altar to Yahweh on [the] threshing floor of Ornan the Jebusite.
Kisha malaika wa Bwana akamwamuru Gadi amwambie Daudi apande na kumjengea Bwana madhabahu kwenye sakafu ya kupuria nafaka ya Arauna Myebusi.
19 And he went up David by [the] word of Gad which he had spoken in [the] name of Yahweh.
Kwa hiyo Daudi akakwea, akalitii lile neno ambalo Gadi alikuwa amelisema katika jina la Bwana.
20 And he turned Ornan and he saw the angel and [the] four sons his with him [were] hiding themselves and Ornan he threshed wheat.
Arauna alipokuwa akipura ngano, akageuka akamwona yule malaika. Wanawe wanne waliokuwa pamoja naye wakajificha, yeye akaendelea kupura ngano.
21 And he came David to Ornan and he looked Ornan and he saw David and he went out from the threshing floor and he bowed down to David face [the] ground towards.
Kisha Daudi akakaribia, Arauna alipotazama na kumwona, akaondoka kwenye uwanja wa kupuria nafaka akamsujudia Daudi akiuinamisha uso wake ardhini.
22 And he said David to Ornan give! to me [the] place of the threshing floor so I may build on it an altar to Yahweh for money full give it to me so it may be restrained the plague from on the people.
Daudi akamwambia, “Nipatie huu uwanja wako wa kupuria nafaka ili niweze kujenga madhabahu ya Bwana tauni ipate kukomeshwa katika watu. Niuzie kwa bei yake kamili.”
23 And he said Ornan to David take [it] for yourself so may he do lord my the king the good in view his see I give the ox[en] for the burnt offerings and the threshing-sledges for the wood and the wheat for the grain offering everything I give.
Arauna akamwambia Daudi, “Uchukue huo uwanja. Mfalme bwana wangu na afanye lolote analopenda. Tazama, nitatoa maksai kwa ajili ya sadaka za kuteketezwa, vifaa vya kupuria kuwa kuni, pamoja na ngano kwa ajili ya dhabihu ya nafaka. Natoa hivi vyote.”
24 And he said the king David to Ornan In-deed certainly I will acquire [it] for money full for not I will take [that] which [belongs] to you for Yahweh and to offer up a burnt offering for nothing.
Lakini Mfalme Daudi akamjibu Arauna, “La hasha! Lakini ninasisitiza kwamba nitalipa bei yake kamili. Sitachukua kilicho chako kwa ajili ya Bwana au kutoa sadaka ya kuteketezwa ambayo hainigharimu chochote.”
25 And he gave David to Ornan for the place shekels of gold weight six hundred.
Basi Daudi akamlipa Arauna shekeli za dhahabu 600 kwa ajili ya ule uwanja.
26 And he built there David an altar to Yahweh and he offered up burnt offerings and peace offerings and he called out to Yahweh and he answered him by fire from the heavens on [the] altar of the burnt offering.
Kisha Daudi akamjengea Bwana madhabahu mahali hapo, na kutoa sadaka za kuteketezwa na sadaka za amani. Akamwita Bwana naye Bwana akajibu maombi yake kwa moto toka mbinguni juu ya madhabahu ya sadaka ya kuteketezwa.
27 And he spoke Yahweh to the angel and he returned sword his to sheath its.
Kisha Bwana akanena na yule malaika, naye akarudisha upanga wake katika ala yake.
28 At the time that when saw David that he had answered him Yahweh on [the] threshing floor of Ornan the Jebusite and he sacrificed there.
Wakati huo, Daudi alipoona kwamba Bwana amemjibu kule kwenye uwanja wa kupuria nafaka wa Arauna Myebusi, akatoa dhabihu huko.
29 And [the] tabernacle of Yahweh which he had made Moses in the wilderness and [the] altar of the burnt offering at the time that [were] in the high place at Gibeon.
Maskani ya Bwana ambayo Mose aliitengeneza kule jangwani, pamoja na madhabahu ya sadaka ya kuteketezwa kwa wakati huo vilikuwa viko mahali pa juu pa kuabudia huko Gibeoni.
30 And not he was able David to go before it to seek God for he was terrified of [the] sword of [the] angel of Yahweh.
Lakini Daudi hakuthubutu kuisogelea ili kumuuliza Mungu, kwa sababu aliuogopa upanga wa yule malaika wa Bwana.
