2 Samoela 11
1 Ie an-tsam-pamalihan-taoñe, i sam-piavotam-panjaka hihotakotakey, le nirahe’ i Davide t’Ioabe, rekets’ o mpitoro’eo, naho Israele iaby; le rinotsa’ iereo o ana’ i Amoneo vaho niarikatohe’ iereo t’i Ramà. F’ie nitambatse e Ierosalaime ao t’i Davide.
And it came to pass, at the return of the year, at the time when kings go out [to battle], that David sent Joab, and his servants with him, and all Israel; and they destroyed the children of Ammon, and besieged Rabbah. But David tarried at Jerusalem.
2 Aa teo ty hariva te nitroatse am-pandrea’e t’i Davide, naho nidraidraitse an-tafon’ anjomba’ i mpanjakay; ie an-tafo ey ro nahatalake ty rakemba niandro; nimontramontra i rakembay, hasoa-vintañe.
And it came to pass at eventide, that David arose from off his bed, and walked upon the roof of the king’s house: and from the roof he saw a woman bathing; and the woman was very beautiful to look upon.
3 Nampañitrike hañontane i rakembay t’i Davide. Le hoe re: Tsy ie hao i Batesevae, ana’ i Eliame, tañanjomba’ i Orià nte-Kite?
And David sent and inquired after the woman. And one said, Is not this Bath-sheba, the daughter of Eliam, the wife of Uriah the Hittite?
4 Aa le nampihitrife’ i Davide; ie niheo mb’ama’e ao, niolora’e, aa ie fa nañefe-batañe amy haleora’ey ro nimpoly añ’anjomba’e ao.
And David sent messengers, and took her; and she came in unto him, and he lay with her; (for she was purified from her uncleanness; ) and she returned unto her house.
5 Niareñe i rakembay vaho nirahe’e amy Davide ty hoe: Mivesatse iraho.
And the woman conceived; and she sent and told David, and said, I am with child.
6 Aa le nafanto’ i Davide amy Ioabe ty hoe: Iraho mb’amako mb’etoa t’i Orià nte-Kite. Aa le nirahe’ Ioabe mb’ amy Davide t’i Orià.
And David sent to Joab, [saying], Send me Uriah the Hittite. And Joab sent Uriah to David.
7 Aa ie pok’ ama’e t’i Orià, le nañontanea’ i Davide te nanao akore t’Ioabe, naho ondatio naho i fañotakotaha’ i aliy.
And when Uriah was come unto him, David asked of him how Joab did, and how the people fared, and how the war prospered.
8 Le hoe t’i Davide amy Orià: Akia, mizotsoa mb’añ’ akiba’o mb’eo, naho manasà fandia. Aa le niavotse añ’ anjomba’ i mpanjakay t’i Orià vaho nampañoriheñ’ aze ty mahakama, ravoravo boak’ amy mpanjakay.
And David said to Uriah, Go down thy house, and wash thy feet. And Uriah departed out of the king’s house, and there followed him a mess [of meat] from the king.
9 Fe nirotse an-dalan’ anjomba’ i mpanjakay t’i Orià mindre amo mpitoro’ i talè’ey iabio vaho tsy nizotso mb’ añ’anjomba’e mb’eo.
But Uriah slept at the door of the king’s house with all the servants of his lord, and went not down to his house.
10 Aa ie natalily amy Davide ty hoe: Tsy nizotso mb’añ’ anjomba’e mb’eo t’i Orià. Le hoe t’i Davide amy Orià, Tsy vaho nihirik’ an-dia-lava v’iheo? Aa vaho akore t’ie tsy nizotso mb’ añ’anjomba’o mb’eo?
And when they had told David, saying, Uriah went not down unto his house, David said unto Uriah, Art thou not come from a journey? wherefore didst thou not go down unto thine house?
11 Le hoe t’i Orià amy Davide: Songa mimoneñe an-kibohotse i vatam-pañinay, naho Israele, vaho Iehodà; mbore mitobe an-kivok’ ey t’Ioabe talèko mindre amo mpitoron-talèkoo; aa le himoak’ añ’ anjombako ao hao iraho hihinañe naho hinoñe, vaho handre amy valikoy? Kanao velon-drehe naho veloñe ty arofo’o, tsy hanoeko.
And Uriah said 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; shall I then go into mine 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 Le hoe t’i Davide amy Orià: Mahaliñisa atoy hey te anito, le hengako hiavotse te maray. Aa le niambesatse e Ierosalaime ao t’i Orià amy andro zay; le ie loakandro
And David said to Uriah, Tarry here today also, and tomorrow I will let thee depart. So Uriah abode in Jerusalem that day, and the morrow.
13 nikanjie’ i Davide naho nikama naho ninoñe ama’e; vaho nimamoe’e; le niakatse añe re te hariva nandre am-pandreañe mindre amo mpitoro’ i taleio, fe tsy nizotso mb’ añ’ anjomba’e mb’eo.
And when David had called him, he did eat and drink before him; and he made him drunk: and at even he went out to lie on his bed with the servants of his lord, but went not down to his house.
14 Aa ie maraiñe, nanokitse taratasy am’ Ioabe t’i Davide, vaho nampisangitrifa’e am-pità’ i Orià.
And it came to pass in the morning, that David wrote a letter to Joab, and sent it by the hand of Uriah.
15 Le hoe ty sinoki’e amy taratasiy: Apoho aolo amy hotakotake miforoforoy t’i Orià, le isitaho, soa t’ie ho fofoheñe hivetrake.
And he wrote in the letter, saying, Set ye Uriah in the forefront of the hottest battle, and retire ye from him, that he may be smitten, and die.
16 Ie amy zao, naho nisary i aliy t’Ioabe le nafanto’e hitoetse amo fanalolahio t’i Orià.
And it came to pass, when Joab kept watch upon the city, that he assigned Uriah unto the place where he knew that valiant men were.
17 Aa le niavotse ondati’ i rovaio, nifandraparapak’ am’ Ioabe; nitsingoro eo ty ila’ ondatio, naho ty ila’ o mpitoro’ i Davideo; vaho nihomake ka t’i Orià nte-Kite.
And the men of the city went out, and fought with Joab: and there fell some of the people, even of the servants of David; and Uriah the Hittite died also.
18 Le nañirake t’Ioabe naho nitalily i aliy amy Davide;
Then Joab sent and told David all the things concerning the war;
19 le hoe ty nafanto’e amy nampihitrifa’ey: Ie fa nitalilie’o amy mpanjakay i aly iabiy,
and he charged the messenger, saying, When thou hast made an end of telling all the things concerning the war unto the king,
20 naho miforoforo ty haviñera’ i mpanjakay, manao ama’o ty hoe: Aa vaho akore t’ie niheo mb’eo hialy marine i rovay hoe zao? Tsy nifohi’ areo t’ie hitifitse boak’ ambone’ i kijoliy ey?
it shall be that, if the king’s wrath arise, and he say unto thee, Wherefore went ye so nigh unto the city to fight? knew ye not that they would shoot from the wall?
21 ia ty nañoho-doza amy Akimelek’ ana’ Ierobesete? tsy roakemba hao ty nametsake vato-fandisanañe-ambone ama’e boak’ an-kijoly ey nampihomak’ aze e Tebetse añe? Aa vaho manao akore te niharinea’ areo i rindriñey? le hoe ty hatao’o: Nihomake ka i mpitoro’o Orià nte-Kitey.
who smote Abimelech the son of Jerubbesheth? did not a woman cast an upper millstone upon him from the wall, that he died at Thebez? why went ye so nigh the wall? then shalt thou say, Thy servant Uriah the Hittite is dead also.
22 Aa le nimb’eo i nafantokey vaho natalili’e amy Davide iaby i nampañitrife’ Ioabe azey.
So the messenger went, and came and shewed David all that Joab had sent him for.
23 Le hoe i ìrakey amy Davide: Toe naname anay ondatio naho niakatse mb’ ama’ay an-kivoke ey fe nampolie’ay pak’ am-pimoahañe an-dalam-bey eo.
And the messenger said unto David, The men prevailed against us and came out unto us into the field, and we were upon them even unto the entering of the gate.
24 Le hiniriri’ o mpitàm-paleo o mpitoro’oo boak’ amy kijoliy, naho amo mpitoro’ i mpanjakaio ty nivetrake, vaho nihomake ka t’i Orià nte-Kite mpitoro’oy.
And the shooters shot at thy servants from off the wall; and some of the king’s servants be dead, and thy servant Uriah the Hittite is dead also.
25 Aa le hoe t’i Davide amy nihitrikey: Ty hoe ty ho enta’o am’ Ioabe: Ehe te tsy hampioremeñe azo o raha zao fa tsy mete tsy mampibotseke mb’eo mb’eo avao i fibaray; ampaozaro ty fihotakotaha’o amy rovay vaho rotsaho. Osiho re.
Then David said unto the messenger, Thus shalt thou say unto Joab, Let not this thing displease thee, for the sword devoureth one as well as another: make thy battle more strong against the city, and overthrow it: and encourage thou him.
26 Ie jinanji’ i tañanjomba’ i Oriày te vilasy t’i Orià vali’e le nandala’e.
And when the wife of Uriah heard that Uriah her husband was dead, she made lamentation for her husband.
27 Ie añe i fandalà’ey le nahitri’ i Davide ty holia’e añ’anjomba’e ao naho nengae’e ho vali’e vaho nisamak’ ana-dahy ho aze. Fe tsy ninò’ Iehovà i nanoe’ i Davidey.
And when the mourning was past, David sent and took her home to his house, and she became his wife, and bare him a son. But the thing that David had done displeased the LORD.
