2 Samoela 12
1 Aa le nirahe’ Iehovà amy Davide t’i Natane. Le nomb’ ama’e mb’eo nanao ty hoe: Teo t’indaty roe androva raike: mpañaleale ty raike, naho rarake ty raike.
So the LORD sent Nathan to David. And he came to him, and said to him, "Tell me how you judge this case. There were two men in a certain city, the one rich and the other poor.
2 Nitsifotofoto ty lia-raike naho ty mpirai-tro’ i mpañalealey;
The rich man had very many flocks and herds,
3 fe nipoi’e i rarakey naho tsy ty anak’ añondry vave raike vinili’e naho nibeize’e; ie nibeizeñe ama’e naho amo keleia’eo, nihinana’e ka i tsindro’ey naho ninoñe amy fitovi’ey vaho nandre añ’araña’e eo vaho nihoe anak’ ampela ama’e.
but the poor man had nothing, except one little ewe lamb, which he had acquired. And he raised it and it grew up alongside him and his children. It used to eat of his morsel and drink from his cup and sleep in his arms, and it was like a daughter to him.
4 Pok’ amy mpañalealey amy zao ty mpañavelo, le nado’e, tsy nangala’e i lia-rai’ey, hañajaria’e ho a i mpañavelo nivotrak’ ama’ey, fe rinambe’e i vik’ añondri’ i rarakeiy vaho nihajarie’e ho a indaty nivotrak’ ama’ey.
Now a traveler came to the rich man, but he was unwilling to take from his own flock or his own herd to prepare for the traveler who had come to him, but took the poor man's lamb and prepared it for the man who had come to him."
5 Niforoforo am’ indatiy ty haviñera’ i Davide; le hoe re amy Natane: Kanao veloñe t’Iehovà mañeva hakoromake indaty nanao i raha zaiy;
Then David became very angry with that man, and he said to Nathan, "As the LORD lives, the man who has done this deserves death.
6 vaho havaha’e in’ empatse i vik’ añondriy, amy nanoa’e o haloloañe zaoy, ie tsy niferenaiñe indatiy.
He must restore the lamb fourfold, because he did this thing, and because he had no pity."
7 Aa hoe t’i Natane amy Davide, Ihe ‘nio ondatio. Hoe t’Iehovà Andrianañahare’ Israele: Norizako ho mpanjaka’ Israele irehe, naho rinombako am-pità’ i Saole;
Then Nathan said to David, "You are the man. This is what the LORD, the God of Israel, says: 'I anointed you king over Israel, and I delivered you out of the hand of Saul.
8 natoloko azo ka ty anjomban-talè’o, naho o valin-talè’oo ho añ’ araña’o, naho natoloko azo ty anjomba’ Israele naho Iehodà; aa naho niloho-kede ama’o izay ho nitompeako zao naho zao iaby.
I gave you your master's house, and your master's wives into your care, and gave you the house of Israel and of Judah; and if that would have been too little, I would have added to you many more such things.
9 Inoñ’ arè ty nitsambolitioa’o ty tsara’ Iehovà, hanoa’o haratiañe am-pahatreavako? Zinevo’o am-pibara t’i Orià nte-Kite naho rinambe’o ho vali’o i tañanjomba’ey, ie vinono’o am-pibara’ o ana’ i Amoneo.
Why have you despised the LORD, to do that which is evil in his sight? You have struck Uriah the Hethite with the sword, and have taken his wife to be your wife, and have slain him with the sword of the people of Ammon.
10 Ie amy zao, le lia’e tsy hienga ty anjomba’o i fibaray amy te nitsambolitioa’o Ahiy, vaho rinambe’o ho vali’o ty vali’ i Orià.
Now therefore the sword will never depart from your house, because you have despised me, and have taken the wife of Uriah the Hethite to be your wife.'
11 Hoe t’Iehovà: Inao! hampitroboeko añ’ anjomba’o ao ty hankàñe, naho ho tavaneko añatrefam-pihaino’o o vali’oo naho hatoloko ami’ty marine azo, ie hifandia tihy amo vali’oo ampahatreava’ i àndroy.
"This is what the LORD says: 'Look, I will raise up evil against you out of your own house; and I will take your wives before your eyes, and give them to your neighbor, and he will lie with your wives in the sight of this sun.
12 Ihe nanao aze añetake fa izaho ka ro hampidodea o raha zao añatrefa’ Israele iaby naho añatrefa’ i àndroy.
For you did it secretly, but I will do this thing before all Israel, and before the sun.'"
13 Le hoe t’i Davide amy Natane: Aman-kakeo am’ Iehovà iraho. Le hoe t’i Natane amy Davide: Fa napo’ Iehovà ka i tahi’oy; tsy hihomake irehe.
David said to Nathan, "I have sinned against the LORD." Nathan said to David, "The LORD also has put away your sin. You will not die.
14 Fe amy te nanokafa’o lalañe o rafelahi’ Iehovào amy sata’oy, hiteratera, le tsy mete tsy ho simba ty ajaja ho samahe’o.
However, because by this deed you have shown utter contempt for the LORD, the child also who is born to you shall surely die."
15 Nimpoly mb’añ’ anjomba’e mb’eo t’i Natane. Le pinao’ Iehovà ty ajaja sinama’ i vali’ i Oriày amy Davide, vaho narare mafe.
Then Nathan went to his home. And God struck the child that Uriah's wife bore to David, and it was very sick.
16 Nihalalie’ i Davide aman Añahare i ajajay, naho niliilara’ i D’avide, vaho ie nimoake ao, le mandre an-tane avao amy haleñey.
Then David sought from God on behalf of the child. And David fasted, and went in and lay all night on the ground.
17 Niongak’ amy zao o androanavi’ i anjombaio le nijohañe añ’ila’eo hampitroatse aze boak’an-tane; fe tsy nimete, vaho tsy nitraofa’e fikama.
And the elders of his house approached him to lift him up from the ground, but he was unwilling, and he would not eat food with them.
18 Ie amy andro fahafitoy, nimate i ajajay. Le nihembañe o mpitoro’ i Davideo tsy nahavany hisaontsy ama’e te simba i ajajay; fa hoe iereo: Inay, ie mbe niveloñe i ajajay, naho nisaontsen-tika le tsy hinao’e ty feon-tika; antsake te atalily aze te simba i ajajay, te mone hanolo-tsotry aze?
It happened on the seventh day, that the child died. The servants of David feared to tell him that the child was dead; for they said, "Look, while the child was yet alive, we spoke to him, and he did not listen to our voice. How will he then harm himself, if we tell him that the child is dead?"
19 Fe nioni’ i Davide te niharo fivesoveso o mpitoro’eo vaho nifohi’ i Davide te nimate i ajajay; le hoe t’i Davide amo mpitoro’eo: Simba hao i ajajay? Le hoe iereo: Simba.
But when David noticed that his servants were whispering together, David perceived that the child was dead; and David said to his servants, "Is the child dead?" They said, "He is dead."
20 Niongake boak’ an-tane amy zao t’i Davide le nisasa naho nihosotse naho novae’e o saro’eo; le nimoak’ añ’ anjomba’ Iehovà, nitalaho; naho nimoak’ añ’anjomba’e; le nanjotsoa’ iareo mahakama t’ie nanohiñe, vaho nikama.
Then David arose from the ground, and washed, and anointed himself, and changed his clothing; and he came into the house of the LORD, and worshiped. Then he went to his own house, and he asked for bread to eat. And they set bread before him, and he ate.
21 Le hoe o mpitoro’eo tama’e: Ino o nanoe’o zao? ihe nililitse naho nirovetse te niveloñe i ajajay; f’ie nisimba i ajajay, le nitroatse irehe vaho mikama.
Then his servants said to him, "What is this that you have done? You fasted and wept and kept vigil for the child while he was alive; but when the child was dead, you rose up and ate bread."
22 Aa le hoe re: Naho mbe niveloñe i ajajay le nililirako naho nirovetako, fa nataoko te: Ia ty mahafohiñe hera hañisok’ ahy t’Iehovà vaho hitambeloñe i ajajay?
He said, "While the child was yet alive, I fasted and wept; for I said, 'Who knows whether the LORD will not be gracious to me, that the child may live?'
23 F’ie mate henaneo, ino ty hililirako? hahafivañom-beloñe aze hao? Toe homb’ ama’e añe iraho f’ie tsy himpoly amako.
But now he is dead, why should I fast? Can I bring him back? I shall go to him, but he will not return to me."
24 Aa le nihohòe’ i Davide t’i Batesevàe vali’e, le nizilik’ ama’e ao naho niolora’e, naho nisamak’ anadahy vaho natao’e Selomò ty añara’e. Le nikokoa’ Iehovà;
David comforted Bathsheba his wife, and went in to her, and lay with her. She bore a son, and he called his name Solomon. The LORD loved him;
25 vaho nirahe’e am-pità’ i Natane mpitoky; le tinoka’e ty hoe Iedidià ty añara’e, ty amy Iehovà.
and he sent by the hand of Nathan the prophet; and he named him Jedidiah, for the LORD's sake.
26 Ie henane zay nialy amy Rekabe anak’ Amone, t’Ioabe vaho rinambe’e i rovam’ panjakay.
Now Joab fought against Rabbah of the people of Ammon, and took the royal city.
27 Aa le nampañitrike ìrak’ amy Davide re nanao ty hoe: Fa nialiako ty Rakabe, eka, fa rinambeko i rovan-dranoy.
Joab sent messengers to David, and said, "I have fought against Rabbah, and have also taken the water supply of the city.
28 Aa le atontono ty ila’ondatio naho mitobea haname i rovay, naho tavano, kera izaho ty handrambe i rovay, le ho tokaveñe ami’ty añarako.
Now therefore gather the rest of the people together, and besiege the city and capture it yourself, or I will capture the city, and it will be named after me."
29 Aa le natonto’ i Davide ondaty iabio, naho nionjomb’e Rakabe mb’eo naho nifandraparapak’ ama’e vaho rinambe’e,
David gathered all the people together, and went to Rabbah, and fought against it, and took it.
30 le rinambe’e ami’ty añambone’ i Malkame ty sabaka’e; talenta volamena ty lanja’e naho nampipetaham-batosoa; vaho napetak’ añambone’ i Davide. Tsifotofoto ty vara nikopahe’e amy rovay.
He took the crown of their king from off his head; and its weight was a talent of gold, and in it were precious stones; and it was set on David's head. He brought out the spoil of the city, a very great amount.
31 Nakare’e iaby ondatio naho nampitoloñe’e lasý naho lasarý viñe naho fekom-bý vaho nampanodore’e birike; izay ty nanoe’e amo fonga rova’ o nte Amoneo vaho nimpoly mb’e Ierosalaime añe t’i Davide naho ondaty iabio.
He brought out the people who were in it, and put them to work with saws, and iron picks, and iron axes, and to labor at the brick kiln. And he did the same to all the cities of the people of Ammon. David and all the people returned to Jerusalem.
