2 Samwiri 24
1 Awo Mukama n’asunguwalira Isirayiri nate, n’aleetera Dawudi okubabala. Dawudi n’alagira nti, “Genda obale Isirayiri ne Yuda.”
And it repeated [the] anger of Yahweh to burn on Israel and he incited David against them saying go count Israel and Judah.
2 Kabaka n’alagira Yowaabu n’abaduumizi ab’eggye nti, “Mugende mu bika byonna ebya Isirayiri okuva e Ddaani okutuuka e Beeruseba mubale abantu, ntegeere omuwendo gwabwe.”
And he said the king to Joab - [the] commander of the army who [was] with him go about please in all [the] tribes of Israel from Dan and to Beer Sheba and enroll the people and I will know [the] number of the people.
3 Naye Yowaabu n’addamu kabaka nti, “Mukama Katonda wo ayongere ku bantu bo emirundi kikumi n’okusingawo, nga mukama wange kabaka akyali mulamu. Naye kiki ekikukoza ekintu bwe kityo mukama wange kabaka?”
And he said Joab to the king and may he add Yahweh God your to the people like them - and like them a hundred times and [the] eyes of lord my the king [are] seeing [it] and lord my the king why? does he delight in the thing this.
4 Naye ekigambo kya kabaka ne kisinga amaanyi ebigambo bya Yowaabu n’abaduumizi b’eggye, era ne bava mu maaso ga kabaka ne batanula okubala abantu ba Isirayiri.
And it prevailed [the] word of the king to Joab and over [the] commanders of the army and he went out Joab and commanders of the army before the king to enroll the people Israel.
5 Oluvannyuma olw’okusomoka Yoludaani, ne basiisira okumpi ne Aloweri ku luuyi olw’obukiikaddyo olw’ekibuga mu kiwonvu, ne bayitira mu Gaadi okutuuka e Yazeri.
And they passed over the Jordan and they encamped at Aroer [the] south of the city which [is] in [the] middle of the wadi Gad and to Jazer.
6 Ne bagenda e Gireyaadi ne mu kitundu kya Tatimukodusi, ne batuuka e Ddaani-Yaani ne beebungulula ne baggukira e Sidoni.
And they came Gilead towards and to [the] land of Tahtim Hodshi and they came Dan towards Jaan and around to Sidon.
7 Ne bagenda ku kigo eky’e Ttuulo ne mu bibuga byonna eby’Abakiivi n’eby’Abakanani, ne bakomekkereza omulimu gwabwe e Beeruseba mu bukiikaddyo obwa Yuda.
And they came [the] fortress of Tyre and all [the] cities of the Hivite[s] and the Canaanite[s] and they went out to [the] Negev of Judah Beer Sheba.
8 Awo oluvannyuma olw’okuyitaayita mu nsi yonna omulimu nga bagukoledde emyezi mwenda n’ennaku amakumi abiri, ne baddayo e Yerusaalemi.
And they went about in all the land and they came from [the] end of nine months and twenty day[s] Jerusalem.
9 Yowaabu n’awaayo omuwendo gw’abantu bonna eri kabaka. Mu Isirayiri mwaweramu abasajja abalwanyi emitwalo kinaana, ne mu Yuda ne muweramu abasajja abalwanyi emitwalo amakumi ataano.
And he gave Joab [the] number of [the] muster of the people to the king and it was Israel eight hundred thousand man of strength [who] drew a sword and [the] man of Judah [was] five hundred thousand man.
10 Naye Dawudi n’akeŋŋeentererwa emmeeme olw’ekikolwa ekyo eky’okubala abantu. N’agamba Mukama nti, “Nnyonoonye nnyo olw’ekyo kye nkoze. Kaakano, Ayi Mukama Katonda nziggyako omusango guno omuddu wo gw’azizza, kubanga nkoze eky’obusirusiru.”
And it struck [the] heart of David him after thus he had counted the people. And he said David to Yahweh I have sinned exceedingly [that] which I have done and now O Yahweh take away please [the] iniquity of servant your for I have acted foolishly exceedingly.
11 Awo mu kiro ekigambo kya Mukama Katonda ne kijjira nnabbi Gaadi, omulabi wa Dawudi nti,
And he arose David in the morning. And [the] word of Yahweh it came to Gad the prophet [the] seer of David saying.
12 “Genda otegeeze Dawudi nti, ‘Bw’atyo bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda nti: ku bino ebisatu londawo ekimu kye nnaakukola.’”
Go and you will speak to David thus he says Yahweh three [things] I [am] laying on you choose for yourself one from them so I may do [it] to you.
13 Gaadi n’agenda eri Dawudi n’amugamba nti, “Ndireeta enjala mu nsi okumala emyaka musanvu? Oba, ndikuddusa mu maaso g’abalabe bo okumala emyezi esatu, nga bakugoba? Oba, walibaawo ennaku ssatu eza kawumpuli mu nsi yo? Kirowoozeeko, ontegeeze ky’onoosalawo, nzizeeyo obubaka eri oyo antumye.”
And he went Gad to David and he told to him and he said to him ¿ will it come to you seven years - famine - in land your or? three months fleeing you before opponents your and he [will be] pursuing you and or? to be three days pestilence in land your now know and see what? will I bring back [the] [one who] sent me word.
14 Awo Dawudi n’agamba Gaadi nti, “Nsobeddwa nnyo; wakiri tugwe mu mukono gwa Mukama Katonda, kubanga okusaasira kwe kungi; okusinga okugwa mu mikono gy’abantu.”
And he said David to Gad it is distress to me exceedingly let us fall please in [the] hand of Yahweh for [are] great (compassion his *Q(K)*) and in [the] hand of humankind may not I fall.
15 Awo Mukama Katonda n’aweereza kawumpuli ku Isirayiri okuva ku makya okwo okumala ekiseera Mukama kye yateekateeka, abantu emitwalo musanvu ne bafa okuva mu bitundu ebya Ddaani okutuuka e Beeruseba.
And he gave Yahweh pestilence in Israel from the morning and until a time of an appointed time and he died of the people from Dan and to Beer Sheba seventy thousand man.
16 Malayika bwe yagolola omukono gwe eri Yerusaalemi okukizikiriza, Mukama ne yejjusa olw’ekikolwa ekyo, n’agamba malayika eyabonereza abantu nti, “Kinaamala, toyoongera nate.” Olwo malayika wa Mukama Katonda yali atuuse ku gguuliro lya Alawuna Omuyebusi.
And he stretched out hand his the angel - Jerusalem to destroy it and he relented Yahweh concerning the harm and he said to the angel the destroyer among the people enough now let drop hand your and [the] angel of Yahweh he was near [the] threshing floor of (Araunah *Q(K)*) the Jebusite.
17 Awo Dawudi bwe yalaba malayika wa Mukama Katonda eyabonereza abantu, n’ayogera nti, “Nze nnyonoonye era nze nkoze eby’ekyejo, naye endiga zino, tezirina kye zikoze. Nkwegayiridde, omukono gwo ka gubonereze nze n’ennyumba ya kitange.”
And he said David to Yahweh when saw he - the angel - who was striking down the people and he said here! I (the shepherd *X*) I have sinned and I I have done wrong and these the sheep what? have they done let it be please hand your on me and on [the] house of father my.
18 Ku lunaku olwo Gaadi n’agenda eri Dawudi n’amugamba nti, “Yambuka ozimbire Mukama Katonda ekyoto ku gguuliro lya Alawuna Omuyebusi.”
And he came Gad to David on the day that and he said to him go up raise up to Yahweh an altar on [the] threshing floor of (Araunah *Q(K)*) the Jebusite.
19 Awo Dawudi n’agondera ebiragiro bya Mukama Katonda bye yayisa mu Gaadi, n’ayambuka ku gguuliro.
And he went up David according to [the] word of Gad just as he had commanded Yahweh.
20 Alawuna n’alengera kabaka n’abasajja be nga bajja gy’ali, n’afuluma n’avuunama mu maaso ga kabaka, ne yeeyala wansi.
And he looked down Araunah and he saw the king and servants his passing on to him and he went out Araunah and he bowed down to the king face his [the] ground towards.
21 Alawuna n’abuuza nti, “Kiki ekireese mukama wange kabaka eri omuddu we?” Dawudi n’addamu nti, “Nzize okugula egguuliro lyo, nzimbire Mukama ekyoto, kawumpuli aleke okubuna mu bantu.”
And he said Araunah why? has he come lord my the king to servant his and he said David to buy from with you the threshing floor to build an altar to Yahweh so it may be restrained the plague from on the people.
22 Alawuna n’agamba Dawudi nti, “Mukama wange kabaka atwale kyonna ky’anaasiima akiweeyo. Ente ziizo ez’ekiweebwayo ekyokebwa, n’ebintu ebiwuula n’ebikoligo by’ente byonna mbiwaddeyo okuba enku.
And he said Araunah to David let him take and let him offer up lord my the king the good (in eyes his *Q(K)*) see the ox[en] for the burnt offering and the threshing-sledges and [the] equipment of the ox[en] for the wood.
23 Ebyo byonna, Alawuna abiwaddeyo eri kabaka.” Alawuna n’ayongerako nti, “Olabe ekisa mu maaso ga Mukama Katonda wo.”
Everything he gives Araunah O king to the king. And he said Araunah to the king Yahweh God your may he accept favorably you.
24 Naye kabaka n’agamba Alawuna nti, “Nedda, nzija kulisasulira. Sijja kuwaayo ssaddaaka ez’ebiweebwayo ebyokebwa eri Mukama Katonda wange, nga sisasulidde muwendo.” Awo Dawudi n’asasulira egguuliro n’ente, omuwendo ogw’enkana effeeza, gulaamu lukaaga.
And he said the king to Araunah In-deed certainly I will buy [it] from you for a price and not I will offer up to Yahweh God my burnt offerings without paying and he bought David the threshing floor and the ox[en] for silver shekels fifty.
25 Dawudi n’azimbira Mukama ekyoto n’awaayo ebiweebwayo ebyokebwa n’ebiweebwayo olw’emirembe. Olwo Mukama Katonda n’ayanukula okusaba kwe ku lw’ensi, kawumpuli n’ava ku Isirayiri.
And he built there David an altar to Yahweh and he offered up burnt offerings and peace offerings and he was entreated Yahweh for the land and it was restrained the plague from on Israel.
