< Taariikhdii Kowaad 21 >

1 Haddaba Shayddaan baa ku kacay reer binu Israa'iil oo wuxuu Daa'uud ku dhaqaajiyey inuu reer binu Israa'iil tiriyo.
Now Satan rose up against Israel, and he incited David so that he would number Israel.
2 Markaasaa Daa'uud ku yidhi Yoo'aab iyo amiirradii, Taga oo reer binu Israa'iil soo tiriya tan iyo Bi'ir Shebac iyo ilaa Daan, oo war ii keena si aan u ogaado dadka tiradiisa.
And David said to Joab and to the leaders of the people: “Go, and number Israel, from Beersheba even to Dan. And bring me the number, so that I may know it.”
3 Markaasaa Yoo'aab yidhi, Rabbigu dadkiisa ha ka dhigo boqol jeer in ka sii badan inta ay haatan yihiin, laakiinse boqorow sayidkaygiiyow, iyagu kulligood sow ma aha addoommadaada? Maxaadse waxan u doonaysaa, sayidkaygiiyow? Oo maxaadse reer binu Israa'iil sabab ay ku dembaabaan ugu noqonaysaa?
And Joab responded: “May the Lord increase his people a hundred times more than they are. But, my lord the king, are they not all your servants? Why would my lord seek this thing, which may be imputed as a sin to Israel?”
4 Habase yeeshee boqorka hadalkiisii waa ka adkaaday hadalkii Yoo'aab. Haddaba sidaas daraaddeed Yoo'aab wuu tegey, oo wuxuu dhex maray reer binu Israa'iil oo dhan, dabadeedna Yeruusaalem buu yimid.
But the word of the king prevailed instead. And Joab went away, and he traveled around, through all of Israel. And he returned to Jerusalem.
5 Markaasaa Yoo'aab Daa'uud siiyey tiradii dadka, oo reer binu Israa'iil oo dhammu waxay ahaayeen kun kun iyo boqol kun oo nin oo seefqaad ah, oo reer Yahuudahna waxay ahaayeen afar boqol iyo toddobaatan kun oo nin oo seefqaad ah.
And he gave to David the number of those whom he had surveyed. And the entire number of Israel was found to be one million and one hundred thousand men who could draw the sword; but from Judah, there were four hundred and seventy thousand men of war.
6 Laakiinse isagu sooma uu tirin reer Laawi iyo reer Benyaamiin, maxaa yeelay, Yoo'aab waa karaahiyeystay boqorka hadalkiisii.
But Levi and Benjamin he did not number. For Joab executed the orders of the king unwillingly.
7 Haddaba taas ayaa Ilaah ugu cadhooday, markaasuu laayay reer binu Israa'iil.
Then God was displeased with what had been ordered, and so he struck Israel.
8 Markaasaa Daa'uud Ilaah ku yidhi, Waxaan sameeyey aad baan ugu dembaabay, haddaba waan ku baryayaaye, iga fogee dembigayga anoo addoonkaaga ah, waayo, nacasnimo weyn baan sameeyey.
And David said to God: “I have sinned exceedingly in doing this. I beg you take away the iniquity of your servant. For I have acted unwisely.”
9 Markaasaa Rabbigu la hadlay Gaad oo ahaa Daa'uud waxarkihiisa, oo wuxuu yidhi,
And the Lord spoke to Gad, the seer of David, saying:
10 Tag oo Daa'uud la hadal oo waxaad ku tidhaahdaa, Rabbigu wuxuu kugu leeyahay, Saddexdan waxyaalood baan ku siinayaa, ee ka dooro mid aan kugu sameeyo.
“Go, and speak to David, and tell him: Thus says the Lord: I give to you the option of three things. Choose the one that you will want, and I will do it to you.”
11 Sidaas daraaddeed Gaad baa Daa'uud u yimid oo ku yidhi, Rabbigu wuxuu leeyahay, Midkaad doonaysid dooro,
And when Gad had gone to David, he said to him: “Thus says the Lord: Choose what you will want:
12 saddex sannadood oo abaar ah, ama saddex bilood oo aad ku baabba'did cadaawayaashaada hortooda iyadoo seefta cadaawayaashaadu ay ku gaadhayso, amase haddii kale saddex maalmood oo seefta Rabbigu iyadoo belaayo ah ay dalka dhex marayso, oo ay malaa'igtii Rabbiga dadka baabbi'inayso kulli dalka reer binu Israa'iil oo dhan. Haddaba bal ka fiirso jawaabta aan u celiyo kii i soo diray.
Either three years of famine, or three months for you to flee from your enemies, unable to escape from their sword, or three days for the sword of the Lord and a pestilence to turn within the land, with the Angel of the Lord killing in every part of Israel. Now therefore, see what I should respond to him who sent me.”
13 Markaasaa Daa'uud wuxuu Gaad ku yidhi, Cidhiidhi weyn baan ku jiraa, Rabbiga gacantiisa aan ku dhaco, waayo, naxariistiisu waa badan tahay, laakiinse yaanan dad gacantiis ku dhicin.
And David said to Gad: “There are difficulties pressing upon me from every side. But it is better for me to fall into the hands of the Lord, for his mercies are many, than into the hands of men.”
14 Saas aawadeed Rabbigu belaayo ayuu ku soo dejiyey reer binu Israa'iil, oo waxaa reer binu Israa'iil ka dhintay toddobaatan kun oo nin.
Therefore, the Lord sent a pestilence upon Israel. And there fell from Israel seventy thousand men.
15 Oo haddana Rabbigu wuxuu Yeruusaalem u soo diray malag wax baabbi'iya, oo markuu u dhowaaday inuu baabbi'iyo ayaa Rabbigu fiiriyey, oo belaayadii ka qoomamooday, oo wuxuu malaggii wax baabbi'inayay ku yidhi, Bes weeye, haddaba gacanta soo celi. Oo malaggii Rabbigu wuxuu ag joogay meeshii hadhuudhka lagu tumi jiray oo uu Aarnaankii reer Yebuus lahaa.
Also, he sent an Angel to Jerusalem, so that he might strike it. And while he was striking, the Lord saw and took pity over the magnitude of the harm. And he commanded the Angel who was striking: “It is enough. Now let your hand cease.” And the Angel of the Lord was standing beside the threshing floor of Ornan the Jebusite.
16 Markaasaa Daa'uud indhihii kor u taagay oo wuxuu arkay malaggii Rabbiga oo taagan dhulka iyo samada dhexdooda oo gacanta ku haysta seef gal la' oo Yeruusaalem ku kor fidsan. Markaasay Daa'uud iyo odayaashiiba, iyagoo dhar joonyad ah qaba, wejiga dhulka saareen.
And David, lifting up his eyes, saw the Angel of the Lord, standing between heaven and earth with a drawn sword in his hand, turned toward Jerusalem. And both he and those greater by birth, being clothed in haircloth, fell prone upon the ground.
17 Markaasaa Daa'uud wuxuu Ilaah ku yidhi, Kii amray in dadka la soo tiriyo sow aniga ma aha? Kii dembaabay oo waxa aad u xun sameeyey waa aniga, laakiinse idahanu maxay sameeyeen? Haddaba Rabbiyow Ilaahayow, waan ku baryayaaye, gacantaadu ha ka gees noqoto aniga iyo reerka aabbahay, laakiinse dadkaaga yaanay ka gees noqon oo aanay belaayo ku dhicin.
And David said to God: “Am I not the one who ordered that the people be numbered? It is I who sinned; it is I who did evil. This flock, what does it deserve? O Lord my God, I beg you to let your hand be turned against me and against the house of my father. But let not your people be struck down.”
18 Markaasaa malaggii Rabbigu Gaad ku amray inuu Daa'uud ku yidhaahdo, Tag oo Rabbiga meel allabari ugu dhis meeshii wax lagu tumi jiray ee Aarnaankii reer Yebuus leeyahay.
Then the Angel of the Lord instructed Gad to tell David that he should ascend and build an altar to the Lord God on the threshing floor of Ornan the Jebusite.
19 Oo Daa'uud baa ku tegey wixii uu Gaad yidhi, oo uu ku hadlay magicii Rabbiga.
Therefore, David ascended, in accord with the word of Gad, which he had spoken to him in the name of the Lord.
20 Markaasaa Aarnaan soo jeestay oo arkay malaggii, oo afartiisii wiil oo isaga la joogayna way dhuunteen. Haddaba Aarnaan wuxuu tumayay sarreen.
Now when Ornan had looked up and seen the Angel, he and his four sons hid themselves. For at that time, he was threshing wheat upon the floor.
21 Oo markii Daa'uud u yimid Aarnaan ayaa Aarnaan arkay Daa'uud, oo intuu meeshii ka baxay ayuu u sujuuday Daa'uud, wejigana dhulkuu saaray.
Then, as David was approaching Ornan, Ornan saw him, and he went out from the threshing floor to meet him. And he reverenced him prone on the ground.
22 Markaasaa Daa'uud wuxuu Aarnaan ku yidhi, Meeshan wax lagu tumo i sii, aan meel allabari Rabbiga uga dhisee. Waxaad igu siinaysaa qiima buuxa in belaayadu ay dadka ka joogsato.
And David said to him: “Give this place of your threshing floor to me, so that I may build an altar to the Lord upon it. And you shall accept from me as much money as it is worth, so that the plague may cease from the people.”
23 Markaasaa Aarnaan wuxuu Daa'uud ku yidhi, Boqorow sayidkaygiiyow, qaado oo samee wixii kula wanaagsan, bal eeg, dibida waxaan kuu siinayaa qurbaanno la gubo aawadiis, oo alaabta wax lagu tumona qoryo aawadood, sarreenkana qurbaan aawadiis, anigu kulli waan ku wada siinayaa.
But Ornan said to David: “Take it, and may my lord the king do whatever pleases him. Moreover, I give the oxen also as a holocaust, and the plow for wood, and the wheat for a sacrifice. I will offer all freely.”
24 Markaasaa Boqor Daa'uud wuxuu Aarnaan ku yidhi, Maya, laakiinse sida runta ah qiima buuxa ayaan kaaga iibsanayaa, waayo, Rabbiga u qaadi maayo wax aad adigu leedahay, oo qurbaan la gubo oo aanan waxba ka bixin anigu Ilaah ugu bixin maayo.
And king David said to him: “By no means shall it be so. Instead, I will give money to you, as much as it is worth. For I must not take it from you, and thereby offer to the Lord holocausts that cost nothing.”
25 Haddaba Daa'uud wuxuu Aarnaan meeshii ka siiyey dahab miisaankiisu yahay lix boqol oo sheqel.
Therefore, David gave Ornan, for the place, the very just weight of six hundred shekels of gold.
26 Markaasaa Daa'uud halkaas Rabbiga uga dhisay meel allabari, oo wuxuu u bixiyey qurbaanno la gubo iyo qurbaanno nabaadiino, oo Rabbiguu baryay, oo isna wuxuu isagii samada ugaga jawaabay dab ku soo kor dhacay meeshii qurbaanka la gubo.
And he built an altar to the Lord there. And he offered holocausts and peace offerings, and he called upon the Lord. And he heeded him by sending fire from heaven upon the altar of the holocaust.
27 Markaasaa Rabbigu amray malaggii, isna seeftiisuu ku celiyey galkeedii.
And the Lord instructed the Angel, and he turned his sword back into its sheath.
28 Oo isla markaasba Daa'uud markuu arkay in Rabbigu isaga uga jawaabay meeshii wax lagu tumi jiray oo uu lahaa Aarnaan oo ahaa reer Yebuus ayuu halkaas ku allabaryay.
Then, seeing that the Lord had heeded him at the threshing floor of Ornan the Jebusite, David immediately immolated victims there.
29 Waayo, taambuuggii Rabbiga ee Muuse cidlada ku dhex sameeyey iyo meeshii qurbaanka la guboba markaas waxay dhex yiilleen meesha sare ee Gibecoon ku taal.
But the tabernacle of the Lord, which Moses had made in the desert, and the altar of holocausts, were at that time on the high place of Gibeon.
30 Laakiinse Daa'uud meeshaas ma uu hor tegi karin inuu Ilaah wax soo weyddiisto, maxaa yeelay, wuxuu ka baqayay seeftii malagga Rabbiga.
And David was unable to go to the altar, so that he might pray to God there. For he had been struck with an exceedingly great fear, seeing the sword of the Angel of the Lord.
