2 Saamuʼeel 11
1 Birraa keessa yeroo mootonni waraanaaf baʼanitti, Daawit tajaajiltoota isaatii fi loltoota Israaʼel hunda wajjin Yooʼaabin erge. Isaanis Amoonota barbadeessanii magaalaa Rabbaa jedhamtu marsan. Daawit garuu Yerusaalemitti hafe.
And it came to pass when the time o the year for kings going out [to battle] had come round, that David sent Joab, and his servants with him, and all Israel; and they destroyed the children of Ammon, and besieged Rabbath: but David remained at Jerusalem.
2 Gaaf tokko galgala Daawit siree isaa irraa kaʼee bantii masaraa mootummaa irra asii fi achi deddeebiʼaa ture. Innis bantii gubbaa dhaabatee dubartii dhagna ishee dhiqattu tokko arge. Dubartiin sun baayʼee bareedduu turte;
And it came to pass toward evening, that David arose off his couch, and walked on the roof of the king's house, and saw from the roof a woman bathing; and the woman was very beautiful to look upon.
3 Daawitis waaʼee ishee beekuuf nama itti erge. Namichi sunis, “Isheen Batisheebaa intala Eliʼaam, niitii Uuriyaa namicha gosa Heet sanaatii mitii?” jedhe.
And David sent and enquired about the woman: and [one] said, [Is] not this Bersabee the daughter of Eliab, the wife of Urias the Chettite?
4 Daawitis nama itti ergee ishee fichisiise. Isheenis gara isaa dhufte; innis ishee wajjin ciise. Isheen xuraaʼummaa ishee irraa qulqullooftee turte. Ergasii gara mana isheetti deebite.
And David sent messengers, and took her, and went in to her, and he lay with her: and she was purified from her uncleanness, and returned to her house.
5 Dubartiin sun ulfooftee, “Ani ulfaaʼeera” jettee Daawititti ergaa ergite.
And the woman conceived; and she sent and told David, and said, I am with child.
6 Kanaafuu Daawit, “Uuriyaa namicha gosa Heet sana naa ergi” jedhee Yooʼaabitti dhaamsa erge. Yooʼaabis gara Daawititti isa erge.
And David sent to Joab, saying, Send me Urias the Chettite; and Joab sent Urias to David.
7 Daawitis yommuu Uuriyaan gara isaa dhufetti waaʼee Yooʼaab, waaʼee loltootaatii fi haala waraanni keessa jiru isa gaafate.
And Urias arrived and went in to him, and David asked him how Joab was, and how the people were, and how the war went on.
8 Ergasii immoo Daawit Uuriyaan, “Gara mana keetiitti gad buʼiitii miilla kee dhiqadhu” jedhe. Kanaafuu Uuriyaan masaraa mootiitii baʼee deeme; kennaan mootichaas isa faana ergame.
And David said to Urias, Go to your house, and wash your feet: and Urias departed from the house of the king, and a portion [of meat] from the king followed him.
9 Uuriyaan garuu tajaajiltoota gooftaa isaa hunda wajjin karra masaraa mootii dura ciise malee gara mana ofii isaatti gad hin buune.
And Urias slept at the door of the king with the servants of his lord, and went not down to his house.
10 Daawitis yommuu akka Uuriyaan gara mana isaa hin deemin itti himametti, “Ati reefuu karaadhaa dhufte mitii? Maaliif gara mana keetii hin deemne?” jedhee isa gaafate.
And they brought David word, saying, Urias has not gone down to his house. And David said to Urias, Are you not come from a journey? why have you not gone down to your house?
11 Uuriyaan immoo Daawitiin, “Taabonnii fi Israaʼel, Yihuudaanis dunkaana keessa jiru; gooftaan koo Yooʼaabii fi namoonni gooftaa koo dirree irra bulu. Egaa ani akkamitti nyaachuu fi dhuguuf, niitii koo wajjinis rafuuf jedhee gara mana koo deema? Duʼa kee ti; ani waan akkasii hin godhu!”
And Urias said to David, The ark, and Israel, and Juda dwell in tents; and my lord Joab, and the servants of my lord, are encamped in the open fields; and shall I go into my house to eat and drink, and lie with my wife? how [should I do this? as] your soul lives, I will not do this thing.
12 Daawit, “Ati harʼas as buliitii ani bor sin geggeessaa” jedheen. Kanaafuu Uuriyaan gaafa sanaa fi guyyaa itti aanu Yerusaalem keessa ture.
And David said to Urias, Remain here today also, and to-morrow I will let you go. So Urias remained in Jerusalem that day and the day following.
13 Daawitis isa affeere; innis fuula isaa duratti nyaatee dhuge; Daawitis isa macheesse. Uuriyaan garuu halkan sana afata isaa irra tajaajiltoota gooftaa isaa gidduu ciisuuf gad baʼe malee gara mana ofii isaa hin deemne.
And David called him, and he ate before him and drank, and he made him drunk: and he went out in the evening to lie upon his bed with the servants of his lord, and went not down to his house.
14 Daawitis lafti bariinaan xalayaa barreessee harkuma Uuriyaatiin Yooʼaabitti erge.
And the morning came, and David wrote a letter to Joab, and sent it by the hand of Urias.
15 Xalayicha keessattis, “Iddoo waraanni itti cimetti Uuriyaa ramadi. Akka inni achitti dhaʼamee duʼuufis isa dhiisaa duubatti deebiʼaa” jedhee barreesse.
And he wrote in the letter, saying, Station Urias in front of the severe [part] of the fight, and retreat from behind him, so shall he be wounded and die.
16 Kanaafuu Yooʼaab utuu magaalattii marsaa jiruu iddoo akka loltoonni ciccimoon jiran beeketti Uuriyaa ramade.
And it came to pass while Joab was watching against the city, that he set Urias in a place where he knew that valiant men were.
17 Yommuu namoonni magaalaa sanaa itti gad baʼanii Yooʼaabin lolanitti, loltoota Daawit keessaa namoonni tokko tokko duʼan; Uuriyaan namichi gosa Heet sunis ni ajjeefame.
And the men of the city went out, and fought with Joab: and some of the people of the servants of David fell, and Urias the Chettite died also.
18 Yooʼaabis guutummaa oduu waaʼee lola sanaa Daawitiif erge.
And Joab sent, and reported to David all the events of the war, so as to tell them to the king.
19 Akkana jedhees ergamaa sana ajaje; “Yommuu ati waaʼee waraana kanaa mootichatti himtee fixxutti,
And he charged the messenger, saying, When you have finished reporting all the events of the war to the king,
20 aariin mootichaa ni bobaʼa; innis akkana jedhee si gaafachuu dandaʼa; ‘Isin maaliif loluuf akkas magaalaa sanatti dhiʼaattan? Isin akka isaan dallaa irraa xiyya isinitti darbatan hin beeknee?
then it shall come to pass if the anger of the king shall arise, and he shall say to you, Why did you draw near to the city to fight? knew you not that they would shoot from off the wall?
21 Eenyutu Abiimelek ilma Yirubesheet sana ajjeese? Dubartiin tokko dallaa irraa majii dhagaa daakuu itti gad dhiiftee Tebeesitti isa hin ajjeefnee? Isin maaliif akkas dallaa sanatti dhiʼaattan?’ Yoo inni waan kana si gaafate, ‘Tajaajilaan kee Uuriyaan namichi gosa Heet sunis duʼeera’ jedhii itti himi.”
Who struck Abimelech the son of Jerobaal son of Ner? did not a woman cast a piece of a millstone upon him from above the wall, and he died in Thamasi? why did you draw near to the wall? then you shall say, Your servant Urias the Chettite is also dead.
22 Ergamaan sunis kaʼee deemee yommuu achi gaʼetti waan Yooʼaab akka inni itti himu isa ajaje hunda Daawititti hime.
And the messenger of Joab went to the king to Jerusalem, and he came and reported to David all that Joab told him, all the affairs of the war. And David was very angry with Joab, and said to the messenger, Why did you draw near to the wall to fight? knew you not that you would be wounded from off the wall? Who struck Abimelech the son of Jerobaal? did not a woman cast upon him a piece of millstone from the wall, and he died in Thamasi? why did you draw near to the wall?
23 Ergamaan sun Daawitiin akkana jedhe; “Namoonni nutti jabaatanii dirreetti gad nutti baʼan; nus ariinee gara karra magaalattiitti isaan deebifne.
And the messenger said to David, The men prevailed against us, and they came out against us into the field, and we came upon them even to the door of the gate.
24 Ergasiis warri xiyya darbatan dallaa irraa tajaajiltoota keetti darbatan; namoonni mootii tokko tokkos ni duʼan. Tajaajilaan kee Uuriyaan namichi Heet sunis ni duʼe.”
And the archers shot at your servants from off the wall, and some of the king's servants died, and your servant Urias the Chettite is dead also.
25 Daawitis ergamaa sanaan, “Egaa akkana jedhii Yooʼaabitti himi; ‘Wanni kun abdii si hin kutachiisin; goraadeen yeroo tokko isa tokko, yeroo kaan immoo kan biraa nyaata. Cimsii magaalattii dhaʼiitii balleessi.’ Waan kanas Yooʼaabin jajjabeessuuf jedhi” jedhe.
And David said to the messenger, Thus shall you say to Joab, Let not the matter be grievous in your eyes, for the sword devours one way at one time and another way at another: strengthen your array against the city, and destroy it, and strengthen him.
26 Niitiin Uuriyaa yommuu akka dhirsi ishee duʼe dhageessetti ni boosseef.
And the wife of Urias heard that Urias her husband was dead, and she mourned for her husband.
27 Erga yeroon booʼichaa darbee booddee Daawit mana ofii isaatti ishee fudhate; isheenis niitii isaa taatee ilma deesseef. Garuu wanni Daawit hojjete sun Waaqayyo hin gammachiisne.
And the time of mourning expired, and David sent and took her into his house, and she became his wife, and bore him a son: but the thing which David did was evil in the eyes of the Lord.
