2 Samuel 12
1 And Jehovah sendeth Nathan unto David, and he cometh unto him, and saith to him: 'Two men have been in one city; One rich and one poor;
Ya mere, Onyenwe anyị zigara Netan ka o jekwuru Devid. Mgbe Netan bịakwutere Devid, ọ kọọrọ ya akụkọ a, “E nwere ndị ikom abụọ bi nʼotu obodo, otu bụ ọgaranya ma nke ọzọ bụ ogbenye.
2 The rich hath flocks and herds very many;
Onye ọgaranya a nwere ọtụtụ igwe atụrụ na igwe ehi.
3 And the poor one hath nothing, Except one little ewe-lamb, Which he hath bought, and keepeth alive, And it groweth up with him, And with his sons together; Of his morsel it eateth, And from his cup it drinketh, And in his bosom it lieth, And it is to him as a daughter;
Ma nwoke ogbenye ahụ enweghị ihe ọbụla karịa otu nwa nne atụrụ nta nke ọ zụtara. Ọ zụlitere ya, o tolite nʼetiti ya na ụmụ ya. Ọ na-eri nri site na ihe oriri ya, na-aṅụ mmiri site nʼiko mmiri ya, nʼobi ya ka ọ na-edinakwa. Ọ nọ ọnọdụ dịka nwa nwanyị nye ya.
4 And there cometh a traveller to the rich man, And he spareth to take Of his own flock, and of his own herd, To prepare for the traveller Who hath come to him, And he taketh the ewe-lamb of the poor man, And prepareth it for the man Who hath come unto him.'
“Otu ụbọchị, onye ọbịa bịara nʼụlọ onye ọgaranya ahụ. Ma kama ọgaranya ahụ ga-ewere otu atụrụ maọbụ ehi nke ya siere onye ọbịa ya nri, ọ gara were nne atụrụ ogbenye ahụ, gbuo ya, jiri ya siere ọbịa ya nri.”
5 And the anger of David burneth against the man exceedingly, and he saith unto Nathan, 'Jehovah liveth, surely a son of death [is] the man who is doing this,
Devid were oke iwe megide nwoke ahụ, ọ sịrị Netan, “Ana m aṅụ iyi nʼaha Onyenwe anyị dị ndụ na onye mere ihe dị otu a aghaghị ịnwụ!
6 and the ewe-lamb he doth repay fourfold, because that he hath done this thing, and because that he had no pity.'
Ọ ga-ejikwa nwa atụrụ okpukpu anọ kwụghachi ogbenye ahụ ụgwọ otu atụrụ ahụ o weere, nʼihi na onye ọgaranya ahụ egosighị na o nwere obi ebere ọbụla.”
7 And Nathan saith unto David, 'Thou [art] the man! Thus said Jehovah, God of Israel, I anointed thee for king over Israel, and I delivered thee out of the hand of Saul;
Mgbe ahụ, Netan sịrị Devid, “Ọ bụ gị bụ nwoke ahụ! Otu a ka Onyenwe anyị, Chineke Izrel sịrị, ‘Mụ onwe m tere gị mmanụ ịbụ eze Izrel, mụ onwe m napụtakwara gị site nʼaka Sọl.
8 and I give to thee the house of thy lord, and the wives of thy lord, into thy bosom, and I give to thee the house of Israel and of Judah; and if little, then I add to thee such and such [things].
Enyere m gị ụlọ nna gị ukwu, nyefekwa ndị inyom nna gị ukwu nʼaka gị, na alaeze Izrel na Juda, ka ha bụrụ nke gị. Ma ọ bụrụ na nke a ezughị, agaara m atụkwasịrị gị ihe ndị a niile okpukpu okpukpu.
9 'Wherefore hast thou despised the word of Jehovah, to do the evil thing in His eyes? Uriah the Hittite thou hast smitten by the sword, and his wife thou hast taken to thee for a wife, and him thou hast slain by the sword of the Bene-Ammon.
Gịnị mere i ji lelịa okwu Onyenwe anyị anya, mee ihe a jọgburu onwe ya? Nʼihi na i jirila mma agha gbuo Ụraya onye Het, zurukwa nwunye ya nʼohi. Ọ bụkwa mma agha ndị Amọn ka i ji gbuo ya.
10 'And now, the sword doth not turn aside from thy house unto the age, because thou hast despised Me, and dost take the wife of Uriah the Hittite to be to thee for a wife;
Ya mere, nʼihi ihe a i mere, mma agha agaghị esi nʼezinaụlọ gị pụọ, nʼihi na i ledara m anya kpọrọ nwunye Ụraya onye Het ka ọ bụrụ nwunye gị.’
11 thus said Jehovah, Lo, I am raising up against thee evil, out of thy house, and have taken thy wives before thine eyes, and given to thy neighbour, and he hath lain with thy wives before the eyes of this sun;
“Ihe a ka Onyenwe anyị kwuru, ‘Aga m eme ka ihe ọjọọ si nʼezinaụlọ gị bilie megide gị. Nʼihu gị ka m ga-eduru ndị nwunye gị dunye otu onye dị gị nnọọ nso, ya na ha ga-edinakọ nʼehihie ọcha, nʼihu ndị Izrel niile.
12 for thou hast done [it] in secret, and I do this thing before all Israel, and before the sun.'
I mere mmehie gị na nzuzo, ma aga m eme nke a na mbara, nʼihu Izrel niile.’”
13 And David saith unto Nathan, 'I have sinned against Jehovah.' And Nathan saith unto David, 'Also — Jehovah hath caused thy sin to pass away; thou dost not die;
Mgbe ahụ, Devid sịrị Netan, “Emehiela m megide Onyenwe anyị.” Netan zara sị ya, “Onyenwe anyị nʼonwe ya agbagharakwala gị mmehie gị, ị gaghị anwụ.
14 only, because thou hast caused the enemies of Jehovah greatly to despise by this thing, also the son who is born to thee doth surely die.'
Ma nʼihi na i meela ka ndị iro Onyenwe anyị nwe ohere ikwulu na ilelị ya anya, nwa nwoke ahụ amụụrụ gị ga-anwụ.”
15 And Nathan goeth unto his house, and Jehovah smiteth the lad, whom the wife of Uriah hath born to David, and it is incurable;
Mgbe Netan lara, Onyenwe anyị mere ka nwantakịrị ahụ nwunye Ụraya mụụrụ Devid daa ọrịa.
16 and David seeketh God for the youth, and David keepeth a fast, and hath gone in and lodged, and lain on the earth.
Devid rịọrọ Chineke arịrịọ banyere nwantakịrị ahụ. O buru ọnụ, dinaa nʼala efu abalị ahụ niile nʼihu Onyenwe anyị.
17 And the elders of his house rise against him, to raise him up from the earth, and he hath not been willing, nor hath he eaten with them bread;
Emesịa, ndị okenye ụlọ ya rịọrọ Devid ka o bilie rie nri, ma ọ jụrụ iri ihe ọbụla.
18 and it cometh to pass on the seventh day, that the lad dieth, and the servants of David fear to declare to him that the lad is dead, for they said, 'Lo, in the lad being alive we spake unto him, and he did not hearken to our voice; and how do we say unto him, The lad is dead? — then he hath done evil.'
Nʼụbọchị nke asaa, nwantakịrị ahụ nwụrụ. Mgbe ahụ, ndị na-ejere Devid ozi tụrụ egwu otu ha ga-esi gwa ya na nwantakịrị ahụ anwụọla. Nʼihi na ha kwuru nʼime onwe ha sị, “Mgbe nwantakịrị ahụ ka dị ndụ, anyị gwara ya okwu ma o geghị anyị ntị. Anyị ga-esi aṅaa gwa ya na nwantakịrị ahụ anwụọla? O nwere ike imerụ onwe ya ahụ.”
19 And David seeth that his servants are whispering, and David understandeth that the lad is dead, and David saith unto his servants, 'Is the lad dead?' and they say, 'Dead.'
Mgbe Devid hụrụ na ha na-ekwurịta okwu nʼetiti onwe ha na nzuzo; ọ matara na nwa ahụ anwụọla. Ọ jụrụ ha sị, “Nwata ahụ ọ nwụọla?” Ha zara sị ya, “E, ọ nwụọla!”
20 And David riseth from the earth, and doth bathe and anoint [himself], and changeth his raiment, and cometh in to the house of Jehovah, and boweth himself, and cometh unto his house, and asketh and they place for him bread, and he eateth.
Mgbe ahụ, Devid sitere nʼala ebe o dina, bilie, saa ahụ, gbanwee uwe ya, baa nʼụlọ Onyenwe anyị, kpọọrọ ya isiala. Ọ lọghachiri nʼụlọ ya nye iwu ka e wetara ya ihe oriri. O rikwara nri.
21 And his servants say unto him, 'What [is] this thing thou hast done? because of the living lad thou hast fasted and dost weep, and when the lad is dead thou hast risen and dost eat bread.'
O juru ndị na-ejere ya ozi anya, nʼihi ya ha jụrụ ya ajụjụ si, “Gịnị mere i ji eme omume dị otu a? Mgbe nwantakịrị ahụ nọ ndụ, i buru ọnụ, kwaakwa akwa, ma ugbu a, nwa ahụ anwụọla, ị kwụsịla iru ụjụ. Ugbu a, ị biliela na-erikwa nri.”
22 And he saith, 'While the lad is alive I have fasted, and weep, for I said, Who knoweth? — Jehovah doth pity me, and the lad hath lived;
Devid zara ha sị, “Eburu m ọnụ, kwaakwa akwa mgbe nwa ahụ nọ ndụ, nʼihi na ekwuru m sị, ‘ma eleghị anya, Onyenwe anyị ga-enwe ọmịiko nʼebe m nọ mee ka nwa ahụ dị ndụ.’
23 and now, he hath died, why [is] this — I fast? am I able to bring him back again? I am going unto him, and he doth not turn back unto me.'
Ma ugbu a ọ nwụrụ, gịnịkwa ka m nwere dịka uru ibu ọnụ ọzọ? M pụrụ ime ka ọ dị ndụ ọzọ? Aga m alakwuru ya, ma ọ gaghị alaghachikwutekwa m.”
24 And David comforteth Bath-Sheba his wife, and goeth in unto her, and lieth with her, and she beareth a son, and he calleth his name Solomon; and Jehovah hath loved him,
Devid kasiri Batsheba nwunye ya obi, emesịa, mgbe ya na ya dinakọrọ, ọ tụụrụ ime ọzọ mụọ nwa nwoke onye ha kpọrọ aha ya Solomọn. Ma Onyenwe anyị hụrụ nwantakịrị ahụ nʼanya.
25 and sendeth by the hand of Nathan the prophet, and calleth his name Jedidiah, because of Jehovah.
O zigara ozi site nʼaka Netan, onye amụma, ka a gụọ ya Jedidaya nʼihi Onyenwe anyị.
26 And Joab fighteth against Rabbah of the Bene-Ammon, and captureth the royal city,
Nʼoge a, Joab busoro Raba obodo ndị Amọn agha dọta isi obodo eze ha nʼagha.
27 and Joab sendeth messengers unto David, and saith, 'I have fought against Rabbah — also I have captured the city of waters;
Joab zigara Devid ozi sị ya, “Ebuola m agha megide Raba dọta isi mmiri ọṅụṅụ ya nʼagha.
28 and now, gather the rest of the people, and encamp against the city, and capture it, lest I capture the city, and my name hath been called upon it.'
Ugbu a chịkọtaa ndị agha fọdụrụ bịa lụpụchaa agha a, ka ị dọta obodo a nʼagha. Ọ bụrụ na i meghị otu a, aga m adọta obodo a nʼagha, a ga-akpọkwasịkwa ya aha m.”
29 And David gathereth all the people, and goeth to Rabbah, and fighteth against it, and captureth it;
Nʼihi nke a, Devid duuru ndị agha Izrel jeruo Raba, buso ya agha, meriekwa ya.
30 and he taketh the crown of their king from off his head, and its weight [is] a talent of gold, and precious stones, and it is on the head of David; and the spoil of the city he hath brought out, very much;
Devid kpupuru okpueze nke dị nʼisi eze ha, e kpunye ya nʼisi nke ya onwe ya. Ịdị arọ nke okpueze ahụ ruru kilogram ọlaedo iri atọ na anọ, nke e ji nkume ndị dị oke ọnụahịa chọọ mma. Devid sitekwara nʼobodo ahụ kwakọrọ ọtụtụ ihe nkwata nʼagha.
31 and the people who [are] in it he hath brought out, and setteth to the saw, and to cutting instruments of iron, and to axes of iron, and hath caused them to pass over into the brick-kiln; and so he doth to all the cities of the Bene-Ammon; and David turneth back, and all the people, to Jerusalem.
Ọ kpọpụtara ndị nọ nʼebe ahụ, manye ha nʼịrụ ọrụ nke e ji mma nkwọ e ji awa osisi, na igwe e ji egwu ala na anyụike nʼarụ. O mere ka ha rụọ ọrụ nʼebe a na-akpụ blọk brik. Devid mekwara otu ihe a nʼobodo niile nke ụmụ Amọn. Emesịa, ya na ndị agha ya niile laghachiri na Jerusalem.
