1 Haddaba Shayddaan baa ku kacay reer binu Israa'iil oo wuxuu Daa'uud ku dhaqaajiyey inuu reer binu Israa'iil tiriyo.
Satan interfered to cause trouble for Israel. He provoked David to do a census of 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.
So David told Joab and the army commanders, “Go and count the Israelites from Beersheba to Dan. Then report back to me so I can have a total number.”
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?
But Joab replied, “May the Lord multiply his people a hundred times over. Your Majesty, aren't they all your subjects? Why do you want to do this? Why should you make Israel guilty?”
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 king was adamant so Joab left and went all over Israel. Eventually 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 David the number of people censused. In Israel there were 1,100,000 fighting men who could handle a sword, and 470,000 in Judah.
6 Laakiinse isagu sooma uu tirin reer Laawi iyo reer Benyaamiin, maxaa yeelay, Yoo'aab waa karaahiyeystay boqorka hadalkiisii.
However, Joab did not include Levi and Benjamin in the census total, because he disagreed with what the king had ordered.
7 Haddaba taas ayaa Ilaah ugu cadhooday, markaasuu laayay reer binu Israa'iil.
The Lord considered the census a bad thing to do and he punished Israel for it.
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.
Then David said to God, “I have committed a terrible sin by doing this. Please take away the guilt of your servant, for I have been very stupid.”
9 Markaasaa Rabbigu la hadlay Gaad oo ahaa Daa'uud waxarkihiisa, oo wuxuu yidhi,
The Lord told Gad, David's seer,
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 tell David that this is what the Lord says: ‘I'm giving you three options. Choose one of them, and that's what I'll do to you.’”
11 Sidaas daraaddeed Gaad baa Daa'uud u yimid oo ku yidhi, Rabbigu wuxuu leeyahay, Midkaad doonaysid dooro,
So Gad went and told David, “This is what the Lord says: ‘Make your choice:
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 of devastation, running from the swords of your enemies; or three days of the Lord's sword—in other words three days of plague in the land, with an angel of the Lord causing destruction throughout the whole of Israel.’ Now you have to decide how I should reply to the one 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.
David replied to Gad, “This is an awful situation for me! Please, let the Lord decide my punishment, for he is so merciful. Don't let me be punished by people.”
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.
So the Lord a plague on Israel, and 70,000 Israelites died.
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.
God also sent an angel to destroy Jerusalem. But just as the angel was about to destroy it, the Lord saw it, and he relented from causing such a disaster. He told the destroying angel, “That's enough. You can stop now.” Right then 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.
When David looked up and saw the angel of the Lord standing between earth and heaven, holding his drawn sword extended over Jerusalem, David and the elders, wearing sackcloth, fell on their faces.
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.
David said to God, “Wasn't it me who ordered the census of the people? I'm the one who has sinned and acted wickedly. But these sheep, what have they done? Lord my God, please punish me and my family, but don't punish your people with this plague.”
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 told Gad to tell David to go and build an altar to the Lord 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.
So David went and did what Gad had told 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.
Ornan was busy threshing wheat. He turned around and saw the angel; and his four sons who were with him went and hid.
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.
When David arrived, Ornan looked out and saw David. He left the threshing floor and bowed down before David with his face to 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.
David said to Ornan, “Please let me have the threshing floor. I'll buy it at its full price. Then I can build an altar to the Lord here so that the plague on the people may be stopped.”
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.
“Take it, and Your Majesty can do whatever you want with it,” Ornan told David. “You can have the oxen for burnt offerings, the threshing boards for firewood, and the wheat for a grain offering. I'll give it all to you.”
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.
“No, I insist, I will pay the full price,” replied King David “I won't take for the Lord what is yours or present burnt offerings that didn't cost me anything.”
25 Haddaba Daa'uud wuxuu Aarnaan meeshii ka siiyey dahab miisaankiisu yahay lix boqol oo sheqel.
So David paid Ornan six hundred shekels of gold for the place.
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.
David built an altar to the Lord there and presented burnt offerings and friendship offerings. He called on the Lord in prayer, and the Lord answered him with fire from heaven on the altar of burnt offering.
27 Markaasaa Rabbigu amray malaggii, isna seeftiisuu ku celiyey galkeedii.
Then the Lord told the angel to put 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.
When David saw that the Lord had answered him at the threshing floor of Ornan the Jebusite, he offered sacrifices 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.
At that time the tent of the Lord that Moses had made in the wilderness, and the altar of burnt offering, were at the high place in Gibeon.
30 Laakiinse Daa'uud meeshaas ma uu hor tegi karin inuu Ilaah wax soo weyddiisto, maxaa yeelay, wuxuu ka baqayay seeftii malagga Rabbiga.
But David did not want to go there to ask God's will, because he was afraid of the sword of the angel of the Lord.
