2 Samue 24
1 Hagi mago'ane Ra Anumzamo'a Israeli vahera arimpa ahenezamanteno, Devitina antahintahi amino Israeli vahe'ene Judia vahera nama'a mani'nafi ome hamprio hu'ne.
The Lord was angry with Israel, and he provoked David against them, saying, “go and take a census of Israel and Judah.”
2 Higeno kini ne'mo'a sondia vahete kva ne Joapuna hunteno, kagra ana mika Israeli naga'mokizmi nompi vunka noti kaziga Dani kumateti eri agafa hutenka, saoti kaziga Berseba kumate vunka vahera hamprige'na nama'a vahera mani'nazafi ke'na antahi'na ha'neno.
So David told Joab, the army commander, “Go and count the Israelites from Dan to Beersheba, so I can have a total number.”
3 Hianagi Joapu'a kenona huno, Kini ne'moka nagri'ma navesiana Ra Anumzankamo'a vahera zamazeri rama'a hanige'za 100'a zupa rama'a hu'za amama mani'nazaza hu'za fore hanaze. Hagi anazama fore'ma haniazana kagra kasefa hunka mani'nenankeno fore huzanku nave'nesie. Hagi na'a agafare amanahu zana kagra hu'za nehane?
But Joab replied to the king, “May the Lord multiply his people a hundred times over, Your Majesty, and may you live to see it! But why does Your Majesty want to do this?”
4 Hianagi kini ne'mo'a ana ke'a refako huno onke ome hampriho hige'za Joapu'ene sondia vahe'mo'za vahe ome hamprinaku vu'naze.
But the king was adamant so Joab and the army commanders left the king and went to census the people of Israel.
5 Hagi zamagra Jodani tina takahe'za Aroeri kuma'mofo sauti kaziga agupofi seli no ome ki'za mani'ne'za Gati vu'za rugitagi'za Jazeri vu'naze.
They crossed the Jordan and camped on the south side of the town of Aroer, in the middle of the valley, and then continued towards Gad and Jazer.
6 Hagi zamagra Giliati vute'za anantetira Hiti vahe mopafi Kadesi vu'za Dani ehanatite'za, Danitira rugagi'za Saidoni vu'naze.
Then they went on to Gilead, and to the land of Tahtim-hodshi; and then continued towards Dan, and from Dan around to Sidon.
7 Anantetira rukrahe hu'za vihuma me'nea kumate Hivine Kenani kumate ete'za, henka sauti kaziga Judane Bersibanena vu'naze.
After this they went to the fortress of Tyre, and all the towns of the Hivites and Canaanites. They ended up in the Negev of Judah at Beersheba.
8 Hagi 9ni'a ikanki, 20'a zage knafi maka kaziga vano huza vahera hamprite'za ete Jerusalemi vu'naze.
After traveling throughout the whole country for nine months and twenty days, they returned to Jerusalem.
9 Hagi Joapu'a anama ome hampri'nea vahe'mokizmi kea Devitina asamino, Kazinteti'ma ha'ma huga vahera 800 tauseni'a Israeli vahepina manizageno, 500 tauseni'a vahe Juda nagapina mani'naze.
Joab reported to the king the number of people that had been counted. In Israel there were 800,000 fighting men who could use the sword, and in Judah there were 500,000.
10 Hagi Deviti'a vahe'ma hamprite'noa arimpagna hu'ne. Ana huteno Ra Anumzamofona antahigeno, Nagra vahe'ma hampruana tusi'a kumi hu'noe. Hagi eri'za vahekamo'na nagra neginagi navu'nava hu'noanki kumini'a eri atrenanto.
Afterwards, David felt really bad for ordering the census. He said to God, “I have committed a terrible sin by doing this. Please take away the guilt of your servant, for I have been very stupid.”
11 Hagi Deviti'a masenefinti anante nanterana otigeno, Ra Anumzamo'a Deviti kasnampa ne Gatinte eno, anage huno kea atrenteno,
When David got up in the morning, the Lord had sent a message to the prophet Gad, David's seer, saying,
12 Ra Anumzamo'a amanage hie hunka Devitina ome asamio, Kazeri havizama hanua kea 3'a kankamumpi kasamiga huanki, anampinti mago'mofo huhamprige'na kazeri havizana ha'neno.
“Go and tell David that this is what the Lord says: ‘I'm giving you three options. Choose one of them, and that's what I'll do to you.’”
13 Anage huno asamigeno Gati'a Devitina ome asamino, 7'a kafufi agatonto kna fore haniegu kavesifi? 3'a ikampi ha' vahe'mo'za ha'huramanteno kna tamisifi, 3'a zageknafi kria atrenugeno tamazeri haviza haniegu kavenesie? Hagi e'i anampinti mago knazamofo huhamprigena, anama hanamofo Ra Anumzamofona ome asamigahue.
So Gad went and told David, “You can choose three years of famine in your land; or three months of running from your enemies while they chase you; or three days of plague in your land. So think about it and decide how I should reply to the One who sent me.”
14 Hagi Deviti'a Gatina asamino, nagra tusi'a narimpagna huanki, Ra Anumzana asunku Anumza mani'neanki atregeno nazano hunaku'ma hanuno'a, agra'a tazeri havizana hino. Hagi ha' vahe'mokizmi zamazampina tavarente'na tazeri havizana osiho.
David replied to Gad, “This is an awful situation for me! Please, let the Lord decide my punishment, for he is merciful. Don't let me be punished by people.”
15 Hagi Ra Anumzamo'a ana nanterana tusi'a hazenke atregeno 3'a zage knafi noti kaziga Daniti agafa huteno, vuno sauti kaziga Berseba vigeno ana maka mopafina 70 tauseni'a vahe zamahe fri vagare'ne.
So the Lord sent a plague on Israel from that morning until the time designated, and seventy thousand people died from Dan to Beersheba.
16 Hagi vahe'ma zamahe fri ankeromo'ma Jerusalemi kuma'ma erihaviza hunaku retro nehigeno, Ra Anumzamo'a asunku nehuno, antahi'zama'a eri rukrahe huno, ana ankeroa asamino, kazana atro huno hu'ne. Ana zupa ko ankeromo'a Jerusalemi tavaonte Jebusi ne' Araunama witi akruma neharere mani'negeno anage hu'ne.
But just as the angel was getting ready to destroy Jerusalem, the Lord relented from causing such a disaster and told the destroying angel, “That's enough. You can stop now.” Right then the angel of the Lord was standing beside the threshing floor of Araunah the Jebusite.
17 Hagi Devitima ankeromo'ma vahe'ma nezamahegeno negeno'a, anage huno Ra Anumzamofona asami'ne, Nagra'a kumira hu'na havi navunavara hu'noe. Hianagi ama'na vahe'mo'za sipisipigna huza kezmia omne'neanki nankna hazenke hu'nazagenka zamahe'za nehane? Muse hugantoanki nagri'ene nagani'ane tazeri haviza huo.
When David saw the angel striking down the people, he said to the Lord, “I'm the one who has sinned; I'm the one who has done wrong. These people are just sheep. What have they done? Punish me and my family instead.”
18 Ana higeno Gati'a ana kna zupa Devitinte eno anage huno asami'ne, marerinka Jebusi ne'ma Arauna'ma witi akru'ma neharere Ra Anumzamofo kresramnavu ita ome retro huo.
On that day Gad went to David and told him, “Go and build an altar to the Lord on the threshing floor of Araunah the Jebusite.”
19 Anage higeno, Ra Anumzamo'ma Gati'ma asamia kante anteno anaza ome retro hunaku, Deviti'a marerino vu'ne.
So David went and did what the Lord had ordered, as Gad had told him.
20 Hagi Arauna'ma kegeno kini ne'mo'ene vahe'amozama agrama mani'neregama azageno'a, Arauna'a uramino kini ne'mofo avuga avugosaregati mopafi upri huno ra agi ami'ne.
When Araunah looked up, he saw the king and his officials approaching. So he went out and bowed before the king with his face to the ground.
21 Ana huteno Arauna'a anage hu'ne, na'a higenka rana kini nemoka eri'za vaheka'monarega neane? Higeno Deviti'a kenona huno, witi akaru'ma neharana mopa mizasena Ra Anumzamofontega Kresramanavu ita tro hanugeno, amama zamazeri haviza nehia hazenkea omnegahie.
“Why has Your Majesty come to see me, your servant?” Araunah asked. “To buy your threshing floor so I can build an altar to the Lord in order that the plague on the people may be stopped.” David replied.
22 Anante anage huno Arauna'a Devitina asami'ne, ranimoka amne ama ana mopa erinka kagrama antahinankeno knare'ma haniazana hugahane. Hagi kresramna vu zana kaona megeno, rezahema huza witima refuzafunepaza zafane, kaomofo anankempima nentaza karenamare zafanena erinka tevea kregahane.
“Take it, and Your Majesty can use it to make offerings as you think best,” Araunah told David. “Here are the oxen for burnt offerings, and here are the threshing boards and the yokes for the oxen for firewood.
23 Hagi kini ne'moka ama mika zantamina nagra negamue, nehuno Arauna'a mago'ane anage huno kini nekura hu'ne, Ra Anumzana, kagri Anumzamo'a kagrama hanana ofarera muse nehuno antahigamisie.
Your Majesty, I, Araunah, give it all to the king.” Araunah concluded by saying, “May the Lord your God respond positively to you.”
24 Hianagi kini ne'mo'a anage huno Araunana asami'ne, Nagra mizasena kagripintira erigahue. Hagi miza ose'nenua mopafina Ra Anumzana nagri Anumzamofona kre fanene hu ofa amnea huontegahue. Anage nehuno Deviti'a witima neharea mopane bulimakaonena 50'a silva zagoreti mizase'ne.
“No, I insist on paying you for it,” the king replied. “I won't present burnt offerings to the Lord my God that didn't cost me anything.” David bought the threshing floor and the oxen for fifty shekels of silver.
25 Ana huteno Deviti'a anante kresramna vu ita tro huteno, kre fanene hu ofane, rimpa fru ofanena hu'ne. Ana higeno Ra Anumzamo'a nunamuzmia nentahino, ana mopafintira knazana eri amne hu'ne.
David built an altar to the Lord there, and presented burnt offerings and friendship offerings. The Lord answered his prayer for the country, and the plague on Israel was stopped.
