< 2 Samuel 12 >

1 And he sent Yahweh Nathan to David and he came to him and he said to him two men they were in a city one one [was] rich and one [was] poor.
Nake Jehova agĩtũma Nathani kũrĩ Daudi. Na aakinya harĩ we Nathani akĩĩra Daudi atĩrĩ, “Itũũra-inĩ rĩmwe nĩ kwarĩ na andũ eerĩ, ũmwe aarĩ gĩtonga na ũrĩa ũngĩ aarĩ mũthĩĩni.
2 To [the] rich [man] it belonged flock[s] and herd[s] many very.
Mũndũ ũcio warĩ gĩtonga aarĩ na ndũũru nyingĩ cia ngʼondu na cia ngʼombe,
3 And [belonged] to the poor [man] not anything that except a ewe-lamb one small which he had acquired and he nourished it and it grew up with him and with children his together from morsel his it ate and from cup his it drank and in bosom his it lay down and it was to him like a daughter.
no ũcio warĩ mũthĩĩni ndaarĩ na kĩndũ tiga o kamwatĩ kanini aagũrĩte. Agĩkarera, nako gagĩkũra karĩ hamwe nake na ciana ciake. Kaarĩĩaga irio ciake, na gakanyuuagĩra gĩkombe gĩake na gaakomaga gĩthũri-inĩ gĩake. Nako kaarĩ o ta mwarĩ.
4 And he came a traveler to [the] man rich and he spared to take one of own sheep his and one of own cattle his to prepare for the traveler who had come to him and he took [the] ewe-lamb of the man poor and he prepared it for the man who had come to him.
“Na rĩrĩ, mũgeni agĩũka gwa gĩtonga kĩu, no gĩtonga kĩu gĩkĩrega kuoya ngʼondu ĩmwe yakĩo kana ngʼombe gĩthondekere mũgeni ũcio wokĩte gwakĩo gĩa kũrĩa. Handũ ha ũguo, gĩkĩoya kamwatĩ karĩa kaarĩ ka mũthĩĩni na gĩgĩthĩnjĩra mũndũ ũcio wokĩte gwakĩo mũciĩ.”
5 And it burned [the] anger of David on the man exceedingly and he said to Nathan [by] [the] life of Yahweh for [is] a son of death the man who did this.
Daudi agĩcinwo nĩ marakara nĩ ũndũ wa mũndũ ũcio, akĩĩra Nathani atĩrĩ, “Ti-itherũ o ta ũrĩa Jehova atũũraga muoyo, mũndũ ũcio wĩkĩte ũguo agĩrĩirwo nĩ gũkua!
6 And the ewe-lamb he will restore fourfold consequence that he did the thing this and on that not he showed pity.
No nginya arĩhe kamwatĩ kau maita mana, tondũ nĩekĩte ũndũ ta ũcio na akaaga kũiguanĩra tha.”
7 And he said Nathan to David you [are] the man thus he says Yahweh [the] God of Israel I I anointed you to king over Israel and I I delivered you from [the] hand of Saul.
Hĩndĩ ĩyo Nathani akĩĩra Daudi atĩrĩ, “Wee nĩwe mũndũ ũcio! Ũũ nĩguo Jehova, Ngai wa Isiraeli, ekuuga: ‘Ndagũitĩrĩirie maguta ũtuĩke mũthamaki wa Isiraeli, na ngĩkũhonokia kuuma guoko-inĩ gwa Saũlũ.
8 And I gave! to you [the] house of master your and [the] wives of master your in bosom your and I gave! to you [the] house of Israel and Judah and if little and I will add to you like those and like those.
Nĩndakũheire nyũmba ya mwathi waku, o na ngĩkũhe atumia a mwathi waku maikare gĩthũri-inĩ gĩaku. Nĩndakũheire nyũmba ya Isiraeli na Juda. Na kũngĩkorwo maũndũ macio maarĩ manini na matiakũiganĩte-rĩ, nĩingĩakũheire maũndũ mangĩ maingĩ.
9 Why? have you despised - [the] word of Yahweh by doing the evil (in eyes my *Q(K)*) Uriah the Hittite you struck down with the sword and wife his you took for yourself to a wife and him you killed with [the] sword of [the] people of Ammon.
Nĩ kĩĩ gĩtũmĩte ũnyarare kiugo kĩa Jehova, ũgeeka ũũru maitho-inĩ make? Nĩwooragithirie Uria ũrĩa Mũhiti na rũhiũ rwa njora, na ũkĩoya mũtumia wake atuĩke mũtumia waku. Wamũragithirie na rũhiũ rwa njora rwa andũ a Amoni.
10 And therefore not it will depart [the] sword from house your until perpetuity consequence for you despised me and you took [the] wife of Uriah the Hittite to become of you a wife.
Na nĩ ũndũ ũcio, rũhiũ rwa njora rũtikeehera nyũmba yaku, nĩ ũndũ nĩwaanyararire niĩ, na ũkĩoya mũtumia wa Uria ũrĩa Mũhiti atuĩke mũtumia waku.’
11 Thus - he says Yahweh here I [am] about to raise up on you calamity from own house your and I will take wives your to eyes your and I will give [them] to neighbor your and he will lie with wives your to [the] eyes of the sun this.
“Jehova ekuuga ũũ: ‘Nĩngũkũrehithĩria thĩĩna kuuma nyũmba yaku wee mwene. O maitho-inĩ maku nĩngoya atumia aku, ndĩmahe mũndũ wa nyũmba yaku, nake nĩagakoma na atumia acio aku mũthenya barigici.
12 For you you acted in secret and I I will do the thing this before all Israel and before the sun.
Wekire ũndũ ũcio na hitho, no Niĩ ngeeka ũndũ ũyũ mũthenya barigici andũ a Isiraeli othe makĩonaga.’”
13 And he said David to Nathan I have sinned to Yahweh. And he said Nathan to David also Yahweh he has taken away sin your not you will die.
Hĩndĩ ĩyo Daudi akĩĩra Nathani atĩrĩ, “Nĩnjĩhĩirie Jehova.” Nathani agĩcookia atĩrĩ, “Jehova nĩakwehereirie mehia maku. Ndũgũkua.
14 Nevertheless for indeed you have declared contemptible [the] enemies of Yahweh by the thing this also the son born to you certainly he will die.
No tondũ nĩũtũmĩte thũ cia Jehova imũmene mũno nĩ ũndũ wa gwĩka ũguo-rĩ, mwana ũcio ũciarĩirwo nĩegũkua.”
15 And he went Nathan to house his and he struck Yahweh the child whom she had borne [the] wife of Uriah to David and he was sick.
Nathani aarĩkia kũinũka mũciĩ-rĩ, Jehova agĩtũma mwana ũcio mũtumia wa Uria aaciarĩire Daudi arũare.
16 And he sought David God for the lad and he fasted David a fast and he went and he passed [the] night and he lay (in the sackcloth *X*) [the] ground towards.
Daudi agĩthaitha Ngai nĩ ũndũ wa mwana ũcio. Akĩĩhinga kũrĩa irio, agĩtoonya nyũmba yake, agĩkoma thĩ ũtukũ ũcio wothe.
17 And they stood [the] elders of house his with him to raise him from the ground and not he was willing and not he ate with them food.
Nao athuuri a nyũmba yake magĩthiĩ hakuhĩ nake nĩguo mamũrũgamie na igũrũ nowe akĩrega, na ndaigana kũrĩanĩra irio nao.
18 And it was on the day seventh and he died the child and they were afraid [the] servants of David to tell to him - that he had died the child for they said here! when was the child alive we spoke to him and not he listened to voice our and how? will we say to him he has died the child and he will do harm.
Mũthenya wa mũgwanja wakinya-rĩ, mwana ũcio agĩkua. Nacio ndungata cia Daudi igĩĩtigĩra kũmwĩra atĩ mwana ũcio nĩakuĩte. Tondũ cioigire atĩrĩ, “Rĩrĩa mwana oima muoyo, twarĩirie Daudi na akaaga gũtũthikĩrĩria. Twahota atĩa kũmwĩra atĩ mwana nĩakuĩte? Aahota kwĩgera ngero.”
19 And he saw David that servants his [were] whispering to one another and he understood David that he had died the child and he said David to servants his ¿ has he died the child and they said he has died.
No Daudi akĩona atĩ ndungata ciake nĩciaheehanaga, akĩmenya atĩ mwana ũcio nĩakuĩte. Nake akĩũria atĩrĩ, “Kaĩ mwana akuĩte?” Nao magĩcookia atĩrĩ, “Ĩĩ, nĩakuĩte.”
20 And he arose David from the ground and he bathed and he anointed himself and he changed (garments his *Q(K)*) and he went [the] house of Yahweh and he bowed down and he went to own house his and he asked and they set for him food and he ate.
Hĩndĩ ĩyo Daudi agĩũkĩra. Aarĩkia gwĩthamba, akĩĩhaka maguta na akĩgarũrĩra nguo ciake, agĩthiĩ nyũmba ya Jehova, akĩinamĩrĩra, na akĩhooya. Ningĩ agĩcooka agĩthiĩ gwake mũciĩ, agĩĩtia irio, nao andũ ake makĩmũrehere, akĩrĩa.
21 And they said servants his to him what? [is] the thing this which you have done for sake of the child [was] alive you fasted and you wept and just when he died the child you arose and you ate food.
Ndungata ciake ĩkĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Ũreka ũguo nĩkĩ? Rĩrĩa mwana ararĩ muoyo nĩũrehingĩte na ũkarĩra, no mwana akua-rĩ, wokĩra na warĩa irio!”
22 And he said while still the child [was] alive I fasted and I wept for I said who? [is] knowing (and he will show favor to me *Q(K)*) Yahweh and he will live the child.
Nake agĩcookia atĩrĩ, “Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa mwana ararĩ muoyo-rĩ, ndĩrehingaga na ngarĩra. ngĩĩciiria atĩrĩ, ‘Nũũ ũũĩ? Jehova aahota kũnjiguĩra tha areke mwana ũcio atũũre muoyo.’
23 And now - he has died why? this [am] I fasting ¿ am I able to bring back him again I [am] going to him and he not he will return to me.
No rĩu tondũ nĩakuĩte-rĩ, nĩ kĩĩ gĩgũtũma ndĩĩhinge? Ndaahota kũmũriũkia? Nĩ niĩ ngaathiĩ kũrĩ we, no ndangĩcooka kũrĩ niĩ.”
24 And he comforted David Bath-sheba wife his and he went into her and he lay with her and she bore a son (and she called *Q(K)*) name his Solomon and Yahweh he loved him.
Hĩndĩ ĩyo Daudi akĩhooreria mũtumia wake Bathisheba, agĩthiĩ kũrĩ we na agĩkoma nake. Nake agĩciara kahĩĩ; nao magĩgatua Solomoni. Nake Jehova agĩkenda;
25 And he sent by [the] hand of Nathan the prophet and he called name his Jedidiah for sake of Yahweh.
na tondũ Jehova nĩakendete-rĩ, agĩtũma mũnabii Nathani athiĩ agakahe rĩĩtwa Jedidia.
26 And he fought Joab against Rabbah of [the] people of Ammon and he captured [the] city of royalty.
Hĩndĩ ĩyo Joabu akĩhũũra Raba itũũra rĩa andũ a Amoni, na agĩtunyana kĩhingo kĩa hinya kĩa ũthamaki.
27 And he sent Joab messengers to David and he said I have fought against Rabbah also I have captured [the] city of the waters.
Ningĩ Joabu agĩtũma andũ kũrĩ Daudi, akiuga atĩrĩ, “Nĩhũũranĩte na itũũra rĩa Raba o na ngatunyana maaĩ marĩo.
28 And therefore gather [the] rest of the people and encamp on the city and capture it lest I should take I the city and it will be called name my on it.
Na rĩrĩ, cookanĩrĩria ikundi icio ingĩ cia mbũtũ cia ita, nĩguo ithiũrũrũkĩrie itũũra rĩu inene irĩĩgwatĩre. Angĩkorwo ti ũguo nĩngwĩgwatĩra itũũra rĩu inene, narĩo rĩĩtanagio na niĩ.”
29 And he gathered David all the people and he went Rabbah towards and he fought against it and he captured it.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Daudi agĩcookanĩrĩria mbũtũ ciake ciothe cia ita agĩthiĩ Raba, na akĩrĩtharĩkĩra, akĩrĩtunyana.
30 And he took [the] crown of king their from on head his and weight its [was] a talent of gold and a stone precious and it was on [the] head of David and [the] plunder of the city he brought out much very.
Nake akĩoya thũmbĩ ya mũtwe ya mũthamaki wao, na ũritũ wayo warĩ taranda ĩmwe ya thahabu, na nĩ yagemetio na tũhiga twa goro, nayo ĩkĩigĩrĩrwo mũtwe wa Daudi. Nake agĩtaha indo nyingĩ mũno kuuma itũũra rĩu inene,
31 And the people which [was] in it he brought out and he set [them] at the saws and at [the] picks of iron and at [the] axes of iron and he caused to pass them (in the brick mold[s] *Q(K)*) and thus he did to all [the] cities of [the] people of Ammon and he returned David and all the people Jerusalem.
akĩrutũrũra aikari akuo, akĩmahe wĩra wa gwatũra mbaũ na mĩthumeno, na aruti wĩra na harũ cia igera na wa mathanwa, na wĩra wa gũthondeka maturubarĩ. Nake eekire ũguo matũũra-inĩ mothe ma Aamoni. Thuutha ũcio Daudi na mbũtũ ciake ciothe cia ita magĩcooka Jerusalemu.
