< 2 Samuel 24 >

1 And again the anger of the LORD was kindled against Israel, and he moved David against them to say, Go number Israel and Judah.
Aariin Waaqayyoo ammas Israaʼelitti kaʼee Daawitiin, “Dhaqiitii Israaʼelii fi Yihuudaa lakkaaʼi” jedhee isaanitti kakaase.
2 For the king said to Joab the captain of the host, who [was] with him, Go now through all the tribes of Israel, from Dan even to Beer-sheba, and number ye the people, that I may know the number of the people.
Kanaafuu mootichi Yooʼaabii fi ajajjoota waraanaa kanneen isa bira turaniin, “Akka ani akka isaan hammam akka baayʼatan beekuu dandaʼuuf gosoota Israaʼel kanneen Daanii hamma Bersheebaatti jiraatan hunda keessa deemaatii namoota loluu dandaʼan galmeessaa” jedhe.
3 And Joab said to the king, Now the LORD thy God add to the people, how many soever they may be, a hundred-fold, and that the eyes of my lord the king may see [it]: but why doth my lord the king delight in this thing?
Yooʼaab garuu deebisee, “Waaqayyo Waaqni kee loltoota kee dachaa dhibba caalaa haa baayʼisu; iji gooftaa koo mootichaas waan kana haa argu. Garuu gooftaan koo mootichi maaliif waan kana gochuu barbaade?” jedhe.
4 Notwithstanding the king's word prevailed against Joab, and against the captains of the host. And Joab and the captains of the host went out from the presence of the king, to number the people of Israel.
Taʼus dubbiin mootichaa Yooʼaabii fi ajajjoota loltootaa yaada geeddarachiise; kanaafuu isaan fuula mootichaa duraa baʼanii namoota Israaʼel kanneen loluu dandaʼan galmeessuu deeman.
5 And they passed over Jordan, and pitched in Aroer, on the right side of the city that [lieth] in the midst of the river of Gad, and towards Jazer:
Isaanis erga Yordaanos ceʼanii booddee gara kibba magaalaa sulula keessatti argamuutiin Aroʼeer bira qubatan; achii immoo Gaad keessa darbanii Yaʼizeeritti qajeelan.
6 Then they came to Gilead, and to the land of Tahtim-hodshi; and they came to Dan-jaan, and about to Zidon,
Isaanis gara Giliʼaadii fi Tabaason Adasaay, itti aansanii gara Daan yaaʼanii achii immoo naannaʼanii Siidoonaa dhaqan.
7 And came to the strong hold of Tyre, and to all the cities of the Hivites, and of the Canaanites: and they went out to the south of Judah, [even] to Beer-sheba.
Ergasii immoo gara Daʼannoo Xiiroos, gara magaalaawwan Hiiwotaatii fi Kanaʼaanotaa hundaa dhaqan. Dhuma irratti immoo gara Bersheebaa kan kibba Yihuudaatti argamtu sanaa dhaqan.
8 So when they had gone through all the land, they came to Jerusalem at the end of nine months and twenty days.
Isaanis erga guutummaa biyyattii keessa naannaʼanii booddee jiʼa sagalii fi bultii digdamaatti Yerusaalemitti deebiʼan.
9 And Joab presented the sum of the number of the people to the king: and there were in Israel eight hundred thousand valiant men that drew the sword; and the men of Judah [were] five hundred thousand men.
Yooʼaabis lakkoobsa namoota loluu dandaʼanii mootichatti hime; Israaʼel keessa namoota lolaaf gaʼumsa qaban kanneen goraadee qabachuu dandaʼan kuma dhibba saddeeti, Yihuudaa keessa immoo namoota kuma dhibba shanitu ture.
10 And David's heart smote him after that he had numbered the people. And David said to the LORD, I have sinned greatly in what I have done: and now, I beseech thee, O LORD, take away the iniquity of thy servant; for I have done very foolishly.
Daawit waan erga loltoota lakkaaʼee booddee balleessaan itti dhagaʼameef Waaqayyoon, “Ani waan hojjedhe keessatti cubbuu guddaa hojjedheera. Yaa Waaqayyo, ani akka ati balleessaa garbicha keetii dhiiftuuf sin kadhadha. Ani hojii gowwummaa guddaa hojjedheeraa” jedhe.
11 For when David had risen in the morning, the word of the LORD came to the prophet Gad, David's seer, saying,
Guyyaa itti aanutti utuu Daawit hirribaa hin kaʼin ergaan Waaqayyoo gara waa himaa Daawit gara Gaad raajichaa dhufe; ergaan sunis,
12 Go and say to David, Thus saith the LORD, I offer thee three [things]; choose thee one of them, that I may [do it] to thee.
“Dhaqiitii Daawitiin, ‘Waaqayyo akkana siin jedha: Ani filannoo sadii siifin kenna; akka ani isa sitti fiduuf isaan keessaa tokko filadhu’ jedhi” jedha.
13 So Gad came to David, and told him, and said to him, Shall seven years of famine come upon thee in thy land? or wilt thou flee three months before thy enemies, while they pursue thee? or that there be three days' pestilence in thy land? Now consider, and see what answer I shall return to him that sent me.
Kanaafuu Gaad gara Daawit dhaqee, “Waggaa torba biyya kee irra beelli haa buʼuu? Yookaan diinonni kee jiʼa sadiif si haa ariʼanii? Yookaan dhaʼichi guyyaa sadii biyya kee haa dhaʼuu? Egaa amma itti yaadiitii waan ani isa na erge sanaaf deebisu murteessi” jedheen.
14 And David said to Gad, I am in a great strait: let us fall now into the hand of the LORD; for his mercies [are] great: and let me not fall into the hand of man.
Daawit immoo Gaadiin, “Ani akka malee dhiphadheera. Waan araarri isaa guddaa taʼeef nu harka Waaqayyoo haa seennu; garuu akka ani harka namaa seenu hin godhin” jedhe.
15 So the LORD sent a pestilence upon Israel from the morning even to the time appointed: and there died of the people from Dan even to Beer-sheba seventy thousand men.
Kanaafuu Waaqayyo guyyaa itti aanu ganamaa jalqabee hamma guyyaan murtaaʼe raawwatutti Israaʼelitti dhaʼicha fide; Daanii hamma Bersheebaatti namoonni kumni torbaatamni ni dhuman.
16 And when the angel stretched out his hand upon Jerusalem to destroy it, the LORD repented of the evil, and said to the angel that destroyed the people, It is enough: stay now thy hand. And the angel of the LORD was by the threshing-place of Araunah the Jebusite.
Yeroo ergamaan Waaqayyoo Yerusaalemin balleessuuf harka isaa diriirfatetti Waaqayyo sababii hubaatiin sun isa gaddisiiseef ergamaa isaa kan saba balleessuuf ture sanaan, “Ni gaʼa! Harka kee deebifadhu” jedhe. Yeroo sana ergamaan Waaqayyoo oobdii Arawunaa namicha gosa Yebuus sanaa bira ture.
17 And David spoke to the LORD when he saw the angel that smote the people, and said, Lo, I have sinned, and I have done wickedly: but these sheep, what have they done? let thy hand, I pray thee, be against me, and against my father's house.
Daawit yommuu ergamaa Waaqayyoo kan namoota ajjeesaa ture sana argetti, Waaqayyoon, “Namni cubbuu fi balleessaa hojjete anuma. Isaan kunneen garuu hoolotaa dha. Isaan maal godhan? Harki kee anaa fi maatii koo irra haa buʼu” jedhe.
18 And Gad came that day to David, and said to him, Go up, rear an altar to the LORD in the threshing-floor of Araunah the Jebusite.
Gaafas Gaad gara Daawit dhaqee, “Ol baʼiitii oobdii Arawunaa namicha gosa Yebuus sanaa keessatti iddoo aarsaa Waaqayyoof ijaari” jedheen.
19 And David, according to the saying of Gad, went up as the LORD commanded.
Kanaafuu Daawit akkuma Waaqayyo karaa Gaadiin isa ajajetti ol baʼe.
20 And Araunah looked, and saw the king and his servants coming towards him: And Araunah went out, and bowed himself before the king on his face upon the ground.
Arawunaan yommuu milʼatee mootichaa fi namoota isaa kanneen gara isaa dhufaa jiran argetti, gad baʼee fuula mootichaa duratti addaan lafatti gombifamee sagade.
21 And Araunah said, Why is my lord the king come to his servant? And David said, To buy the threshing-floor of thee, to build an altar to the LORD, that the plague may be stayed from the people.
Arawunaanis, “Gooftaan koo mootichi maaliif gara garbicha isaa dhufe?” jedhe. Daawit immoo, “Ani akka dhaʼichi saba irra buʼe kun dhaabatuuf, oobdii kee bitee isa irratti iddoo aarsaa Waaqayyoof tolchuufin dhufe” jedhee deebise.
22 And Araunah said to David, Let my lord the king take and offer up what [seemeth] good to him: behold, [here are] oxen for burnt-sacrifice, and threshing-instruments and [other] instruments of the oxen for wood.
Arawunaanis Daawitiin akkana jedhe; “Gooftaan koo mootichi waan isatti tolu kam iyyuu fudhatee haa dhiʼeessu. Aarsaa gubamuuf sangoonni kunoo ti; qoraaniif immoo miʼi ittiin midhaan dhaʼamuu fi waanjoon sangaa as jira.
23 All these [things] did Araunah, [as] a king, give to the king. And Araunah said to the king, The LORD thy God accept thee.
Yaa mootii, Arawunaan waan kana hunda mootichaaf ni kenna.” Akkasumas Arawunaan, “Waaqayyo Waaqni kee siif haa fudhatu” isaan jedhe.
24 And the king said to Araunah, No; but I will surely buy [it] of thee at a price: neither will I offer burnt-offerings to the LORD my God of that which doth cost me nothing. So David bought the threshing-floor and the oxen for fifty shekels of silver.
Mootichi garuu, “Akkas miti; ani gatiidhaan sirraa bituu na barbaachisa. Ani waan gatii itti hin baasin Waaqayyo Waaqa kootiif aarsaa gubamu godhee hin dhiʼeessu” jedhee Arawunaaf deebise. Kanaafuu Daawit oobdichaa fi sangoota sana meetii saqilii shantamaan bite.
25 And David built there an altar to the LORD, and offered burnt-offerings and peace-offerings. So the LORD was entreated for the land, and the plague was stayed from Israel.
Daawitis achitti iddoo aarsaa Waaqayyoof tolchee aarsaa gubamuu fi aarsaa nagaa dhiʼeesse. Waaqayyos kadhannaa waaʼee biyyattiif dhiʼaateef deebii kenne; dhaʼichis Israaʼel irraa ni deebiʼe.
