2 Samuel 24
1 And it repeated [the] anger of Yahweh to burn on Israel and he incited David against them saying go count Israel and Judah.
Hasira ya Bwana ikawaka tena dhidi ya Israeli, naye akamchochea Daudi dhidi yao, akisema, “Nenda ukawahesabu Israeli na Yuda.”
2 And he said the king to Joab - [the] commander of the army who [was] with him go about please in all [the] tribes of Israel from Dan and to Beer Sheba and enroll the people and I will know [the] number of the people.
Kwa hiyo mfalme akamwambia Yoabu, pamoja na majemadari wa jeshi aliokuwa nao, “Nendeni kwa makabila yote ya Israeli kuanzia Dani hadi Beer-Sheba na mwandikishe watu wapiganaji, ili niweze kujua idadi yao.”
3 And he said Joab to the king and may he add Yahweh God your to the people like them - and like them a hundred times and [the] eyes of lord my the king [are] seeing [it] and lord my the king why? does he delight in the thing this.
Lakini Yoabu akamjibu mfalme, “Bwana Mungu wako na azidishe jeshi mara mia, nayo macho ya bwana wangu mfalme na yaone hili. Lakini kwa nini bwana wangu mfalme anataka kufanya kitu cha namna hii?”
4 And it prevailed [the] word of the king to Joab and over [the] commanders of the army and he went out Joab and commanders of the army before the king to enroll the people Israel.
Hata hivyo, neno la mfalme likawa na nguvu juu ya Yoabu pamoja na majemadari wa jeshi, kwa hiyo wakaondoka mbele ya mfalme kuandikisha wapiganaji wa Israeli.
5 And they passed over the Jordan and they encamped at Aroer [the] south of the city which [is] in [the] middle of the wadi Gad and to Jazer.
Baada ya kuvuka Yordani, walipiga kambi karibu na Aroeri, kusini ya mji ulioko kwenye bonde jembamba, ndipo wakipitia Gadi, wakaenda hadi Yazeri.
6 And they came Gilead towards and to [the] land of Tahtim Hodshi and they came Dan towards Jaan and around to Sidon.
Walikwenda hadi Gileadi na pia eneo la Tahtimu-Hodshi, wakaendelea hadi Dani-Yaani na kuzunguka kuelekea Sidoni.
7 And they came [the] fortress of Tyre and all [the] cities of the Hivite[s] and the Canaanite[s] and they went out to [the] Negev of Judah Beer Sheba.
Kisha wakaenda kuelekea ngome ya Tiro pamoja na miji yote ya Wahivi na ya Wakanaani. Mwishoni, walikwenda mpaka Beer-Sheba katika Negebu ya Yuda.
8 And they went about in all the land and they came from [the] end of nine months and twenty day[s] Jerusalem.
Baada ya kupita katika nchi nzima, walirudi Yerusalemu baada ya miezi tisa na siku ishirini.
9 And he gave Joab [the] number of [the] muster of the people to the king and it was Israel eight hundred thousand man of strength [who] drew a sword and [the] man of Judah [was] five hundred thousand man.
Yoabu akatoa hesabu ya wapiganaji kwa mfalme: Katika Israeli kulikuwako watu 800,000 wenye uwezo wa kupigana, na katika Yuda watu 500,000.
10 And it struck [the] heart of David him after thus he had counted the people. And he said David to Yahweh I have sinned exceedingly [that] which I have done and now O Yahweh take away please [the] iniquity of servant your for I have acted foolishly exceedingly.
Dhamiri ya Daudi ilishtuka baada ya kuwahesabu wapiganaji, naye akamwambia Bwana, “Nimefanya dhambi kubwa kwa kufanya jambo hili. Ee Bwana, sasa ninakusihi, ondoa hatia ya mtumishi wako. Nimefanya jambo la kipumbavu sana.”
11 And he arose David in the morning. And [the] word of Yahweh it came to Gad the prophet [the] seer of David saying.
Kabla Daudi hajaamka kesho yake asubuhi, neno la Bwana lilikuwa limemjia Gadi nabii, aliyekuwa mwonaji wa Daudi, kusema:
12 Go and you will speak to David thus he says Yahweh three [things] I [am] laying on 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.’”
13 And he went Gad to David and he told to him and he said to him ¿ will it come to you seven years - famine - in land your or? three months fleeing you before opponents your and he [will be] pursuing you and or? to be three days pestilence in land your now know and see what? will I bring back [the] [one who] sent me word.
Basi Gadi akaenda kwa Daudi na kumwambia, “Je, ije njaa ya miaka mitatu katika nchi yako? Au miezi mitatu ya kukimbia adui zako wakikufuatia? Au siku tatu za tauni katika nchi yako? Basi sasa, fikiri juu ya hilo na uamue jinsi nitakavyomjibu huyo aliyenituma.”
14 And he said David to Gad it is distress to me exceedingly let us fall please in [the] hand of Yahweh for [are] great (compassion his *Q(K)*) and in [the] hand of humankind may not I fall.
Daudi akamjibu Gadi, “Nitataabika sana. Afadhali tuangukie mikononi mwa Bwana, kwa maana rehema zake ni kuu, lakini usiniache nianguke mikononi mwa wanadamu.”
15 And he gave Yahweh pestilence in Israel from the morning and until a time of an appointed time and he died of the people from Dan and to Beer Sheba seventy thousand man.
Basi Bwana akatuma tauni katika Israeli kuanzia asubuhi mpaka mwisho wa muda ulioamriwa, wakafa watu 70,000 kuanzia Dani hadi Beer-Sheba.
16 And he stretched out hand his the angel - Jerusalem to destroy it and he relented Yahweh concerning the harm and he said to the angel the destroyer among the people enough now let drop hand your and [the] angel of Yahweh he was near [the] threshing floor of (Araunah *Q(K)*) the Jebusite.
Malaika aliponyoosha mkono wake ili kuangamiza Yerusalemu, Bwana akahuzunika kwa sababu ya maafa, akamwambia yule malaika aliyekuwa anawadhuru watu, “Yatosha! Rudisha mkono wako.” Wakati huo malaika wa Bwana alikuwa kwenye sakafu ya kupuria ya Arauna, Myebusi.
17 And he said David to Yahweh when saw he - the angel - who was striking down the people and he said here! I (the shepherd *X*) I have sinned and I I have done wrong and these the sheep what? have they done let it be please hand your on me and on [the] house of father my.
Ikawa Daudi alipomwona huyo malaika aliyekuwa akiwaua watu, akamwambia Bwana, “Mimi ndiye niliyetenda dhambi na kukosa. Hawa ni kondoo tu. Wamefanya nini? Mkono wako uwe juu yangu na nyumba yangu.”
18 And he came Gad to David on the day that and he said to him go up raise up to Yahweh an altar on [the] threshing floor of (Araunah *Q(K)*) the Jebusite.
Siku hiyo Gadi akamwendea Daudi na kumwambia, “Panda ukamjengee Bwana madhabahu kwenye sakafu ya kupuria ya Arauna Myebusi.”
19 And he went up David according to [the] word of Gad just as he had commanded Yahweh.
Kwa hiyo Daudi akakwea kama vile Bwana alivyokuwa ameamuru kwa kinywa cha Gadi.
20 And he looked down Araunah and he saw the king and servants his passing on to him and he went out Araunah and he bowed down to the king face his [the] ground towards.
Arauna alipotazama na kumwona mfalme na watu wake wakija kumwelekea, alitoka nje na kusujudu mbele ya mfalme kifudifudi, akiuinamisha uso wake ardhini.
21 And he said Araunah why? has he come lord my the king to servant his and he said David to buy from with you the threshing floor to build an altar to Yahweh so it may be restrained the plague from on the people.
Arauna akasema, “Mbona bwana wangu mfalme amekuja kwa mtumishi wake?” Daudi akajibu, “Kununua sakafu yako ya kupuria, ili niweze kumjengea Bwana madhabahu, ili tauni iliyo katika watu iondolewe.”
22 And he said Araunah to David let him take and let him offer up lord my the king the good (in eyes his *Q(K)*) see the ox[en] for the burnt offering and the threshing-sledges and [the] equipment of the ox[en] for the wood.
Arauna akamwambia Daudi, “Bwana wangu mfalme na achukue chochote kinachompendeza na akitoe sadaka. Hapa kuna maksai kwa ajili ya sadaka ya kuteketezwa, pia kuna miti ya kupuria na nira za ngʼombe kwa ajili ya kuni.
23 Everything he gives Araunah O king to the king. And he said Araunah to the king Yahweh God your may he accept favorably you.
Ee mfalme, Arauna anatoa vyote hivi kwa mfalme.” Pia Arauna akamwambia mfalme, “Bwana Mungu wako na akukubali.”
24 And he said the king to Araunah In-deed certainly I will buy [it] from you for a price and not I will offer up to Yahweh God my burnt offerings without paying and he bought David the threshing floor and the ox[en] for silver shekels fifty.
Lakini mfalme akamjibu Arauna, “La hasha, nasisitiza kuvilipia. Sitatoa sadaka ya kuteketezwa kwa Bwana Mungu wangu isiyonigharimu chochote.” Kwa hiyo Daudi akanunua ile sakafu ya kupuria nafaka na maksai, akazilipia shekeli hamsini za fedha.
25 And he built there David an altar to Yahweh and he offered up burnt offerings and peace offerings and he was entreated Yahweh for the land and it was restrained the plague from on Israel.
Kisha Daudi akamjengea Bwana madhabahu mahali hapo, na kutoa sadaka za kuteketezwa na sadaka za amani. Kisha Bwana akajibu kwa ajili ya nchi, nayo tauni ikakoma katika Israeli.
