< II Samuel 11 >

1 Napasamak daytoy iti panawen a panagtutubo dagiti mulmula, iti tiempo a kadawyan a mapan makigubat dagiti ari, imbaon ni David ni Joab, dagiti adipenna, ken amin nga armada ti Israel. Dinadaelda ti armada ti Ammon ken linakubda ti Rabba. Ngem nagtalinaed ni David iti Jerusalem.
And it came to pass, at the return of the same season of the year, at the time when kings go forth, that David sent Joab, and his servants with him, and all Israel; and they destroyed the children of 'Ammon, and besieged Rabbah. But David remained behind at Jerusalem.
2 Ket napasamak iti maysa a rabii a bimmangon iti pagiddaanna ni David ken nagpagnapagna iti tuktok ti palasiona. Manipud sadiay, natannawaganna iti maysa a babai nga agdigdigus, ken nakapinpintas unay a kitkitaen ti babai.
And it happened at evening-tide, that David arose from off his couch, and walked upon the roof of the king's house: and he saw from the roof a woman bathing herself; and the woman was of a very beautiful appearance.
3 Isu a nangibaon ni David ken nagsaludsod kadagiti tattao no siasino ti makaam-ammo iti babai. Adda maysa a nangibaga, “Saan kadi a daytoy ni Batseba a putot a babai ni Eliam, ken saan kadi nga isuna ti asawa ni Urias a Heteo?”
And David sent and inquired after the woman; and some one said, Behold, this is Beth-sheba', the daughter of Eli'am, the wife of Uriyah the Hittite.
4 Nangibaon ni David kadagiti mensahero ket innalada ti babai; napan ti babai kenni David ket kinaiddana isuna (ta kalkalpas ni Batseba a nangannong iti binulan a seremonia ti pannakadalus gapu iti panagreglana). Kalpasanna, nagawid ti babai iti balayna.
And David sent messengers, and took her; and she came in unto him, and he lay with her, and she had just purified herself from her uncleanness; and she returned unto her house.
5 Nagnginaw ti babai, nangibaon isuna ket imbagana kenni David, “Masikogak.”
And the woman conceived; and she sent and told David, and said, I am with child.
6 Ket nangibaon ni David iti ayan ni Joab a kinunana, “Ibaonmo kaniak ni Urias a Heteo.” Isu nga imbaon ni Joab ni Urias a mapan kenni David.
And David sent to Joab, Send unto me Uriyah the Hittite. And Joab sent Uriyah to David.
7 Idi makadanon ni Urias, dinamag ni David no kumusta ni Joab, ti armada, ken ti gubat.
And when Uriyah was come unto him, David asked after the well-being of Joab, and after the well-being of the people, and how the war prospered.
8 Kinuna ni David kenni Urias, “Bumabaka idiay balaymo, ket buggoam dagiti sakam.” Isu a pinanawan ni Urias ti palasio ti ari ket nangipatulod iti maysa a sagut ti ari para kenni Urias kalpasan a nakapanaw isuna.
And David said to Uriyah, Go down to thy house, and wash thy feet. And Uriyah went forth out of the king's house, and there followed him a mess of food from the king.
9 Ngem naturog ni Urias iti ruangan ti palasio ti ari a kadua dagiti amin nga adipen ti apona, ket saan isuna a bimmaba iti balayna.
But Uriyah laid himself down at the door of the king's house with all the servants of his lord, and went not down to his house.
10 Idi imbagada kenni David, “Saan a bimmaba ni Urias iti balayna,” Kinuna ni David kenni Urias, “Saan kadi a kasangsangpetmo manipud iti panagdaliasat? Apay a saanka a bimmaba iti balaymo?”
And they told David, saying, Uriyah is not gone down unto his house: and David said unto Uriyah, Art thou not come from a journey? why then art thou not gone down unto thy own house?
11 Simmungbat ni Urias, “Adda kadagiti tolda ti Lakasa ti Tulag, ti Israel ken ti Juda, nakakampo pay iti nalawa a tay-ak ni apok a Joab ken dagiti adipen ti apok. Kasanoak a mapan iti balayko tapno mangan, uminom ken makikaidda iti asawak? Agingga a sibibiagka apo ari, saankonto nga aramiden dayta.”
Then said Uriyah unto David, The ark, and Israel, and Judah abide in booths; and my Lord Joab and the servants of my Lord are encamped in the open field: and should I alone go unto my house, to eat and to drink, and to lie with my wife? as thou livest, and as thy soul liveth, I will not do this thing.
12 Isu nga imbaga ni David kenni Urias, “Agtalinaedka pay ditoy ita nga aldaw, ket palubosankanto a pumanaw inton bigat.” Isu a nagtalinaed ni Urias iti Jerusalem iti dayta nga aldaw ken iti sumaruno nga aldaw.
And David said unto Uriyah, Tarry here also this day, and tomorrow will I send thee off. So Uriyah remained in Jerusalem on that day and the following.
13 Idi inayaban ni David isuna, nangan ken imminom isuna iti sangoananna, ket binartek isuna ni David. Iti dayta a rabii, rimmuar ni Urias tapno maturog iti pagiddaanna a kaduana dagiti adipen ti apona; saan isuna a bimmaba iti balayna.
And David invited him, and he ate and drank before him, and he made him drunken; and he went out in the evening to lie down on his resting-place with the servants of his lord; but to his house he did not go down.
14 Isu nga iti kinabigatanna, nagsurat ni David kenni Joab, ket impatulodna daytoy iti ima ni Urias.
And it came to pass in the morning, that David wrote a letter to Joab, and sent it by the hand of Uriyah.
15 Kinuna ni David iti suratna, “Ikabilmo ni Urias iti sango iti nainget a gubat, ket agsanudkayo manipud kenkuana tapno matamaan isuna ket matay.”
And he wrote in the letter, saying, Set Uriyah in front, opposite to the hottest fight, and then withdraw from behind him, that he may be smitten and die.
16 Isu a bayat ti panangbuya ni Joab ti pananglakub iti siudad, pinagpuestona ni Urias iti disso nga ammona a pagkirangetan dagiti kapipigsaan a soldado dagiti kabusor.
And it came to pass, when Joab was enclosing the city, that he placed Uriyah toward the spot of which he knew that valiant men were there.
17 Idi rimmuar dagiti lallaki iti siudad ket nakirangetda iti armada ni Joab, nattuang ti sumagmamano kadagiti soldado ni David, ket natay met sadiay ni Urias a Heteo.
And the men of the city went out and fought with Joab; and there fell some of the people, of the servants of David, and there died also Uriyah the Hittite.
18 Idi nangibaon ni Joab iti damag kenni David iti amin a napasamak maipapan iti gubat,
Then did Joab send, and told unto David all the events of the war.
19 binilinna ti mensahero a kinunana, “No malpasmo nga ibaga iti ari ti amin a banag maipapan iti gubat,
And he charged the messenger, saying, When thou hast finished telling all the events of the war to the king,
20 nalabit a makaungetto ti ari ket kunananto kenka, 'Apay nga immasidegkayo unay iti siudad a makiranget? Saanyo kadi nga ammo nga agpanada manipud iti pader?
And it happen that the king's wrath arise, and he say unto thee, Wherefore did you approach unto the city to fight? knew ye not, that they would shoot down from off the wall?
21 Siasino ti nangpatay kenni Abimelec a putot ni Jerobaal? Saan kadi a maysa a babai ti nangipuruak iti gilingan a bato kenkuana manipud iti pader, isu a natay isuna idiay Tebes? Apay nga immasidegkayo unay iti pader?' Ket kastoyto ti isungbatmo, 'Natay met ti adipenmo a ni Urias a Heteo.'”
Who smote Abimelech the son of Yerubbesheth? did not a woman throw down upon him a piece of an upper mill-stone from off the wall so that he died at Thebez? why did ye approach unto the wall? then must thou say, Also thy servant Uriyah the Hittite is dead.
22 Isu a pimmanaw ti mensahero, napan kenni David ket imbagana amin nga imbilin ni Joab kenkuana.
And the messenger went, and came and told unto David all for which Joab had sent him.
23 Kinuna ti mensahero kenni David, “Idi un-unana, napigpigsa dagiti kabusor ngem kadakami; rimmuarda ket dimmarupda kadakami idiay tay-ak, ngem naabogmi ida a pasubli iti pagserrekan ti ruangan.”
And the messenger said unto David, Because the men overpowered us and came out against us into the field; but we set upon them, as far as the entrance of the gate.
24 Manipud iti tuktok ti pader, pinana dagiti pumapana dagiti adipenmo ket napapatay ti sumagmamano kadagiti adipen ti ari ken napapatay met ti adipenmo a ni Urias a Heteo”
And the archers then shot at thy servants from off the wall; and there died some of the servants of the king, and also thy servant Uriyah the Hittite is dead.
25 Kinuna ni David iti mensahero, “Ibagam daytoy kenni Joab, 'Saanmo nga ipalubos a paglidayennaka daytoy, ta alun-onen ti kampilan ti maysa kasta met ti sabali. Papigsaenyo pay ti pannakirangetyo maibusor iti siudad, ket dadaelenyo daytoy,' Ken pabilegem ni Joab.”
Then said David to the messenger, Thus shalt thou say to Joab, Let this thing not be displeasing in thy eyes; for at times this, at other times the other will the sword devour; continue firmly in thy war against the city, and overthrow it: and thus do thou encourage him.
26 Isu nga idi nangngeg iti asawa ni Urias a natayen ti asawana, nagdung-aw isuna iti nakaro para iti asawana.
And when the wife of Uriyah heard that Uriyah her husband had died, she mourned for her lord.
27 Idi nalpasen ti panagladingitna, nangibaon ni David ket inyawidna ti babai iti palasiona, nagbalin isuna nga asawana ket nangipasngay iti maysa a lalaki. Ngem saan a naay-ayo ni Yahweh iti inaramid ni David.
And when the [time of] mourning was past, David sent and took her to his house, and she became his wife; and she bore him a son. But the thing which David had done was displeasing in the eyes of the Lord.
