2 Samuel 12
1 Then Yahweh sent Nathan to David. He came to him and said, “There were once two men in a city. One man was rich and the other poor.
Waaqayyos Naataanin gara Daawititti erge. Innis gara Daawit dhufee akkana jedhe; “Namoota lamatu magaalaa tokko keessa jiraata ture; inni tokko sooressa, kaan immoo hiyyeessa ture.
2 The rich man had huge numbers of flocks and herds,
Namichi sooressi sun hoolotaa fi loon akka malee baayʼee qaba ture;
3 but the poor man had nothing except one little ewe lamb, which he had bought and fed and raised. It grew up together with him and with his children. The lamb even ate with him and drank from his own cup, and it slept in his arms and was like a daughter to him.
namichi hiyyeessi sun garuu goromtii hoolaa kan bitate xinnoo tokko malee homaa hin qabu ture; innis goromtii hoolaa sana ni kunuunse; hoolaan sunis isaa fi ijoollee isaa biratti guddatte. Isheen nyaata isaa irraa nyaachaa, dhugaatii isaa irraa dhugaa, bobaa isaa jala ciisaa turte. Goromtiin hoolaa kun isaaf akkuma intala isaa turte.
4 One day a visitor came to the rich man, but the rich man was unwilling to take an animal from his own flocks and herds to provide food for him. Instead he took the poor man's ewe lamb and cooked it for his visitor.”
“Gaaf tokko keessummaan tokko mana namicha sooressa sanaa dhufe; namichi sooressi sunis hoolota yookaan loon ofii isaa keessaa tokko fuudhee keessummichaaf nyaata qopheessuu mararsiifate. Qooda kanaa ilmoo hoolaa namicha hiyyeessa sanaa fuudhee keessummaa mana isaa dhufe sanaaf qopheesse.”
5 David was hot with anger against the rich man, and he raged to Nathan, “As Yahweh lives, the man who has done this deserves to be put to death.
Daawitis namicha sanatti akka malee aaree Naataaniin akkana jedhe; “Dhugaa Waaqayyo jiraataa, namichi waan kana godhe sun duʼuu qaba!
6 He must pay back the lamb four times over because he did such a thing, and because he had no pity on the poor man.”
Namichi sun qooda hoolaa sanaa harka afur baasuu qaba; inni gara laafina malee waan kana godheeraatii.”
7 Then Nathan said to David, “You are that man! Yahweh, the God of Israel, says, 'I anointed you king over Israel, and I rescued you out of the hand of Saul.
Naataanis Daawitiin akkana jedhe; “Namichi sun suma! Waaqayyo Waaqni Israaʼel akkana jedha: ‘Ani Israaʼel irratti mootii godhee si dibeera; harka Saaʼol jalaas si baaseera.
8 I gave you your master's house, and your master's wives into your arms. I also gave you the house of Israel and Judah. But if that had been too little, I would have given you many other things in addition.
Ani mana gooftaa keetii siif kenneera; niitota gooftaa keetii illee bobaa keetti siif kenneera. Ani mana Israaʼelii fi mana Yihuudaa siif kenneera. Utuu kunneen hundi sitti xinnaatanii silaa kana caalaa iyyuu siifin kenna ture.
9 So why have you despised the commands of Yahweh, so as to do what is evil in his sight? You have struck down Uriah the Hittite with the sword and have taken his wife to be your own wife. You killed him with the sword of the army of Ammon.
Ati maaliif waan ija isaa duratti hamaa taʼe hojjechuudhaan dubbii Waaqayyoo tuffatte? Ati Uuriyaa namicha Heet sana goraadeen ajjeeftee niitii isaa fudhatteerta. Ati goraadee Amoonotaatiin isa ajjeefte.
10 So now the sword will never leave your house, because you have despised me and have taken the wife of Uriah the Hittite as your wife.'
Kanaafuu amma sababii ati na tuffattee niitii Uuriyaa namicha Heet sana ofii keetiif fudhatteef goraadeen mana kee irraa hin fagaatu.’
11 Yahweh says, 'Look, I will raise up disaster against you out of your own house. Before your own eyes, I will take your wives and give them to your neighbor, and he will sleep with your wives in broad daylight.
“Waaqayyo akkana jedha: ‘Kunoo, ani manuma kee keessaa waan hamaa sitti nan kaasa; utuma iji kee arguu niitota kee fuudhee fira sitti aanuuf nan kenna; innis guyyuma saafaadhaan isaan wajjin ni ciisa.
12 For you committed your sin secretly, but I will do this thing before all Israel, in the sunlight.'”
Ati dhoksaatti akkas goote; ani garuu Israaʼeloota hunda duratti guyyuma saafaadhaan waan kana nan godha.’”
13 Then David said to Nathan, “I have sinned against Yahweh.” Nathan replied to David, “Yahweh also has passed over your sin. You will not be killed.
Kana irratti Daawit Naataaniin, “Ani Waaqayyotti cubbuu hojjedheera” jedhe. Naataan immoo deebisee akkana jedhe; “Waaqayyo cubbuu kee sirraa haqeera; atis hin duutu.
14 However, because by this act you have despised Yahweh, the child who is born to you will surely die.”
Taʼus sababii ati waan kana gochuudhaan Waaqayyoon tuffatteef daaʼimni siif dhalate sun ni duʼa.”
15 Then Nathan left and went home. Yahweh attacked the child that Uriah's wife bore to David, and he was very sick.
Erga Naataan gara mana ofii isaa deemee booddee Waaqayyo daaʼima niitiin Uuriyaa Daawitiif deesse ni dhaʼe; mucichis ni dhibame.
16 David then implored God for the boy. David fasted and went inside and lay all night on the floor.
Daawitis daaʼima sanaaf Waaqa kadhate. Innis soomee mana isaatti galee halkan hunda lafa rafaa ture.
17 The elders of his house arose and stood beside him, to raise him up from the floor, but he would not get up, and he would not eat with them.
Maanguddoonni mana isaas lafaa isa kaasuuf isa bira dhadhaabatan; inni garuu ni dide; isaan wajjinis homaa hin nyaanne.
18 It came about on the seventh day that the child died. David's servants were afraid to tell him that the child was dead, for they said, “Look, while the child was still alive we spoke to him, and he did not listen to our voice. What might he do to himself if we tell him that the boy is dead?!”
Daaʼimni sunis guyyaa torbaffaatti ni duʼe. Tajaajiltoonni Daawit akka daaʼimni sun duʼe isatti himuu sodaatan; isaan, “Nu yeroo daaʼimni sun lubbuun jirutti Daawititti dubbannee ture; inni garuu nu dhagaʼuu dide. Amma akkamiin daaʼimni sun duʼeera jennee itti himna? Yoo nu itti himne inni of miidha taʼa” jedhanii yaadanii turaniitii.
19 But when David saw that his servants were whispering together, David perceived that the child was dead. He said to his servants, “Is the child dead?” They answered, “He is dead.”
Daawit akka tajaajiltoonni isaa walitti asaasaa jiran hubatee daaʼimni sun duʼuu isaa beeke. Innis, “Mucichi ni duʼee?” jedhee gaafate. Isaanis, “Eeyyee duʼeera” jedhanii deebisan.
20 Then David arose from the floor and washed himself, anointed himself, and changed his clothes. He went to the tabernacle of Yahweh and worshiped there, and then he came back to his own palace. When he asked for it, they set food before him, and he ate.
Daawitis lafaa kaʼe. Erga dhagna isaa dhiqatee dibatee booddees uffata isaa geeddaratee mana Waaqayyoo seenee waaqeffate. Ergasii immoo gara mana ofii isaatti galee nyaata gaafannaan dhiʼeessaniif; innis ni nyaate.
21 Then his servants said to him, “Why have you done this? You fasted and wept for the child while he was alive, but when the child died, you got up and ate.”
Tajaajiltoonni isaas, “Ati maaliif akkana goota? Yeroo mucichi lubbuun jirutti ni soomte; ni boosses. Amma garuu mucichi duʼeera; ati immoo kaatee nyaatta!” jedhanii isa gaafatan.
22 David answered, “While the child was still alive I fasted and wept. I said, 'Who knows whether or not Yahweh will be gracious to me, that the child may live?'
Innis akkana jedhee deebise; “Ani yeroo mucichi lubbuun turetti nan soome; nan booʼes. Ani, ‘Eenyutu beeka? Waaqayyo garaa naa laafee mucichi ni fayya’ jedhee yaadeen ture.
23 But now he is dead, so why should I fast? Can I bring him back again? I will go to him, but he will not return to me.”
Amma garuu inni duʼeera; yoos ani maaliifin sooma? Ani isa deebisuu nan dandaʼaa? Anatu gara isaa dhaqa malee inni gara koo hin dhufu!”
24 David comforted Bathsheba his wife, and went in to her, and slept with her. Later she gave birth to a son, and the child was named Solomon. Yahweh loved him
Ergasiis Daawit niitii isaa Batisheebaa ni jajjabeesse; dhaqees ishee wajjin ciise. Isheenis ilma deesseef; maqaa isaas Solomoon jedhanii moggaasan. Waaqayyos isa ni jaallate;
25 and he sent word through Nathan the prophet to name him Jedidiah, because Yahweh loved him.
Waaqayyo waan isa jaallateef akka inni Yidiidiyaa jedhamee waamamuuf karaa Naataan raajichaatiin dubbii erge.
26 Now Joab fought against Rabbah of the Ammonites, and he captured the royal city.
Yeroo sanattis Yooʼaab magaalaa Amoonotaa kan Rabbaa jedhamu waraanee daʼannoo masaraa mootummaa qabate.
27 So Joab sent messengers to David and said, “I have fought against Rabbah, and I have taken the city's water supply.
Yooʼaabis akkana jedhee Daawititti ergamoota erge; “Ani magaalaa Rabbaa waraanee madda bishaan ishee qabadheera.
28 Now therefore gather the rest of the army together and camp against the city and take it, because if I take the city, it will be named after me.”
Egaa ati loltoota hafan walitti qabadhuutii magaalattii marsii qabadhu. Yoo kanaa achii ani magaalattii nan fudhadha; isheenis maqaa kootiin moggaafamti.”
29 So David gathered all the army together and went to Rabbah; he fought against the city and captured it.
Kanaafuu Daawit loltoota hunda walitti qabatee dhaqee Rabbaa waraanee qabate.
30 David took the crown from their king's head—it weighed a talent of gold, and there was a precious stone in it. The crown was placed on David's own head. Then he brought out the plunder of the city in large quantities.
Daawitis mataa mootii isaanii irraa gonfoo fudhate; Gonfichis mataa Daawit irra kaaʼame. Gonfoon sun hamma warqee taalaantii tokkoo ulfaatee dhagaawwan gati jabeeyyiis of irraa qaba ture. Daawitis magaalaa sana keessaa boojuu akka malee baayʼee fudhatee
31 He brought out the people who were in the city and forced them to work with saws, iron picks, and axes; he also made them work at brick kilns. David required all the cities of the people of Ammon to do this labor. Then David and all the army returned to Jerusalem.
namoota achi keessa turanis gad yaasee akka isaan magaaziidhaan, gasoo sibiilaatii fi qottoodhaan hojii hojjetan godhe; suphees isaan dhoofsise. Daawit magaalaawwan Amoonotaa hunda keessattis akkasuma godhe. Ergasii Daawitii fi loltoonni isaa hundinuu Yerusaalemitti ni deebiʼan.
