1 Tantara 21
1 Nitroatse am’ Israele amy zao i mpañinjey nañosike i Davide hañiake Israele.
And Satan stood up against Israel, and provoked David to number Israel.
2 Le hoe t’i Davide am’ Ioabe naho amo mpiaolo’ ondatio; Akia volilio t’Israele boake Beer-Sevà pake Dane añe; vaho andeso amako ho isako. Fa hoe t’Ioabe:
And David said to Joab and to the rulers of the people, Go, number Israel from Beersheba even to Dan; and bring the number of them to me, that I may know it.
3 Ehe te hampitomboe’ Iehovà in-jato ty hamaro’e, f’ie tsy songa mpitoron-talèko hao ry talèko mpanjaka? ino ty paia’ i talèko o raha zao? Ino ty hampanaña’e hakeo Israele?
And Joab answered, The LORD make his people an hundred times so many more as they be: but, my lord the king, are they not all my lord's servants? why then does my lord require this thing? why will he be a cause of trespass to Israel?
4 Fe naharekets’ Ioabe ty saontsi’ i mpanjakay. Aa le niavotse t’Ioabe, nanitsike Israele vaho nimpoly mb’e Ierosalaime mb’eo.
Nevertheless the king's word prevailed against Joab. Wherefore Joab departed, and went throughout all Israel, and came to Jerusalem.
5 Le natolo’ Ioabe amy Davide ty fitonto’ i famoliliañe ondatioy. Aa naho Israele iaby, le rai-tampetrisa-tsi-rai-hetse t’indaty nahafitsoa-pibara vaho am’Iehodà, efats-etse-tsi-fito-ale t’indaty nahafitsoa-pibara.
And Joab gave the sum of the number of the people unto David. And all they of Israel were a thousand thousand and an hundred thousand men that drew sword: and Judah was four hundred threescore and ten thousand men that drew sword.
6 Fe tsy vinolily am’ iereo t’i Levý naho i Beniamine; amy te nampitorifike Ioabe ty saontsi’ i mpanjakay.
But Levi and Benjamin counted he not among them: for the king's word was abominable to Joab.
7 Nihejen’Añahare i raha zay; le linafa’e t’Israele.
And God was displeased with this thing; therefore he stroke Israel.
8 Le hoe t’i Davide aman’ Añahare: aman-kakeo bey iraho, amy nanoeko i rahay; ehe apoho henaneo i tahim-pitoro’oy; amy te nanao hadagolàñe.
And David said unto God, I have sinned greatly, because I have done this thing: but now, I plead to you, do away the iniquity of your servant; for I have done very foolishly.
9 Le nitsara amy Gade, mpitoki’ i Davide, t’Iehovà, nanao ty hoe:
And the LORD spoke unto Gad, David's seer, saying,
10 Akia saontsio amy Davide ty hoe: Hoe ty nafè’ Iehovà: Azotsoko ama’o ty raha telo, ijoboño ty hanoako.
Go and tell David, saying, Thus says the LORD, I offer you three things: choose you one of them, that I may do it unto you.
11 Aa le nimb’ amy Davide mb’eo t’i Gade le nanoe’e ty hoe; Hoe ty nafè’ Iehovà: Joboño ze tea’o,
So Gad came to David, and said unto him, Thus says the LORD, Choose you
12 ke t’ie ho san-kerè telo taoñe, ke ho fafàñe aolon-drafelahi’o telo volañe, ie manjomòts’ azo ty fibaran-drafelahi’o, he ho telo andro am-pibara’ Iehovà, rekets’ angorosy amy taney, ie tsitsife’ ty Anjeli’ Iehovà rotsake ty an-tane’ Israele. Aa le ereñereño henaneo ty vale’e hampoliko amy nañirak’ ahiy.
Either three years' famine; or three months to be destroyed before your foes, while that the sword of your enemies overtakes you; or else three days the sword of the LORD, even the pestilence, in the land, and the angel of the LORD destroying throughout all the coasts of Israel. Now therefore advise yourself what word I shall bring again to him that sent me.
13 Le hoe t’i Davide amy Gade, Vata’e dobo iraho; apoho hikorovok’ am-pità’ Iehovà, amy te ra’elahy o fiferenaiña’eo; fa ko ado’o hivarinjonjok’ am-pità’ondaty.
And David said unto Gad, I am in a great strait: let me fall now into the hand of the LORD; for very great are his mercies: but let me not fall into the hand of man.
14 Aa le nirahe’ Iehovà am’ Israele ty angorosy; le ondaty fito-ale ty nitsingoritrìtse.
So the LORD sent pestilence upon Israel: and there fell of Israel seventy thousand men.
15 Nampihitrifen’ Añahare am’ Ierosalaime ty anjely handrotsake, aa ie ho nanjevo le najihe’ Iehovà; niferenaiña’e tsy hanao i hankàñey vaho nanoe’e ty hoe i anjely mpandrotsakey, Soa izay, agebaño henaneo ty fità’o. Le nijohañe marine’ ty tanem-pifofoha’ i Ornane nte-Iebosý eo i anjeli’ Iehovày.
And God sent an angel unto Jerusalem to destroy it: and as he was destroying, the LORD beheld, and he repented him of the evil, and said to the angel that destroyed, It is enough, stay now your hand. And the angel of the LORD stood by the threshing floor of Ornan the Jebusite.
16 Nampiandra fihaino amy zao t’i Davide le nioni’e nijohañe añivo’ ty tane toy naho i likerañey i anjeli’ Iehovày, ie natorakitsi’e ambone’ Ierosalaime eo ty fibara tsinoake am-pità’e. Nibabok’ an-daharañe amy zao t’i Davide naho o androanavi’ Israeleo songa nisikin-gony.
And David lifted up his eyes, and saw the angel of the LORD stand between the earth and the heaven, having a drawn sword in his hand stretched out over Jerusalem. Then David and the elders of Israel, who were clothed in sackcloth, fell upon their faces.
17 Le hoe t’i Davide aman’ Añahare, Tsy izaho hao ty nandily ty fañiahañe ondatio? Izaho avao ty nandilatse, nanao i haratiañey; fa o añondry retoañe, ino ty nanoe’ iareo? Ehe te ho amako naho añ’ anjomban-draeko ty fità’o ry Iehovà Andrianañahareko, fa tsy am’ondati’oo, hanjamañe iareo.
And David said unto God, Is it not I that commanded the people to be numbered? even I it is that have sinned and done evil indeed; but as for these sheep, what have they done? let your hand, I pray you, O LORD my God, be on me, and on my father's house; but not on your people, that they should be plagued.
18 Aa le nampisaontsie’ i anjeli’ Iehovày i Gade amy Davide, te hampitroare’ i Davide am’ Iehovà ty kitrely an-tanem-pamofoha’ i Ornane nte-Iebosý eo.
Then the angel of the LORD commanded Gad to say to David, that David should go up, and set up an altar unto the LORD in the threshing floor of Ornan the Jebusite.
19 Le nionjomb’eo t’i Davide ty amy nitaroña’ i Gade ami’ty tahina’ Iehovày.
And David went up at the saying of Gad, which he spoke in the name of the LORD.
20 Ie nitolike t’i Ornane le nioni’e i anjeliy, le niharo nietake, ie naho ty ana-dahi’e efatse. Namofoke vare-bolè t’i Ornane henane zay.
And Ornan turned back, and saw the angel; and his four sons with him hid themselves. Now Ornan was threshing wheat.
21 Ie nimb’e Ornane mb’eo t’i Davide, le niandra t’i Ornane, nahaisake i Davide, le niavotse mb’ an-tanem-pamofohañe mb’eo vaho nibokok’ amy Davide, ty lahara’e mb’an-tane.
And as David came to Ornan, Ornan looked and saw David, and went out of the threshing floor, and bowed himself to David with his face to the ground.
22 Le hoe t’i Davide amy Ornane, Atoloro ahy ty toem-pamofohañe toy hañamboarako kitrely am’Iehovà; atoloro ahy ami’ty vili’e do’e, hampijihetse i angorosiy am’ ondatio.
Then David said to Ornan, Grant me the place of this threshing floor, that I may build an altar therein unto the LORD: you shall grant it me for the full price: that the plague may be stayed from the people.
23 Le hoe t’i Ornane amy Davide, Endeso ho azo le hanoa’ i talèko mpanjakay ze soa am-pihaino’e. Ingo atoloko azo o añombeo ho soroñe naho o haraom-pamofohañeo ho hatae vaho o vare-bolèo ho enga mahakama; fonga itolorako.
And Ornan said unto David, Take it to you, and let my lord the king do that which is good in his eyes: lo, I give you the oxen also for burnt offerings, and the threshing instruments for wood, and the wheat for the food offering; I give it all.
24 Le hoe t’i Davide mpanjaka amy Ornane, Aiy avao! tsy mete tsy vilieko ami’ty vili’e do’e, fa tsy ho rambeseko ho a Iehovà o azoo, ndra hañenga soroñe tsy amam-bily.
And king David said to Ornan, Nay; but I will verily buy it for the full price: for I will not take that which is your for the LORD, nor offer burnt offerings without cost.
25 Aa le natolo’ i Davide amy Ornane ho amy toetsey ty sekelem-bolamena enenjato ami’ty lanja’e
So David gave to Ornan for the place six hundred shekels of gold by weight.
26 naho nandranjy kitrely am’ Iehovà eo t’i Davide le nañenga soroñe naho engam-panintsiñañe naho nikanjy Iehovà vaho natoi’e boak’ andikerañe ey, nampidoiñ’ afo ambone’ i kitrely fisoroñañey.
And David built there an altar unto the LORD, and offered burnt offerings and peace offerings, and called upon the LORD; and he answered him from heaven by fire upon the altar of burnt offering.
27 Ie linili’ Iehovà i anjeliy le naombe’e an-kotra’e ao i fibara’ey.
And the LORD commanded the angel; and he put up his sword again into the sheath thereof.
28 Nioni’ i Davide henane zay te nanoiñe aze an-toem-pamofoha’ i Ornane nte-Iebosý eo t’Iehovà le eo ty nañenga’e soroñe.
At that time when David saw that the LORD had answered him in the threshing floor of Ornan the Jebusite, then he sacrificed there.
29 Amy te mbe an-toets’ abo’ i Gibone añe ty kivoho’ Iehovà niranjie’ i Mosè am-patrambey añe naho i kitrelim-pisoroñañey henane zay.
For the tabernacle of the LORD, which Moses made in the wilderness, and the altar of the burnt offering, were at that season in the high place at Gibeon.
30 Fe tsy nete niatrek’ ama’e eo t’i Davide hañontane an’ Andrianañahare fa nampirevendreveñe aze i fibaran’ anjeli’ Iehovày.
But David could not go before it to enquire of God: for he was afraid because of the sword of the angel of the LORD.
