2 Samweli 12
1 Bwana akamtuma Nathani kwa Daudi. Alipofika kwake akamwambia, “Katika mji mmoja kulikuwepo na watu wawili, mmoja alikuwa tajiri na mwingine alikuwa maskini.
Therfor the Lord sente Nathan to Dauid; and whanne he hadde come to Dauid, he seide to Dauid, Answere thou doom to me; twei men weren in o citee; o man was riche, and the tother was pore.
2 Yule mtu tajiri alikuwa na idadi kubwa sana ya kondoo na ngʼombe,
The riche man hadde ful many scheep, and oxun;
3 lakini yule maskini hakuwa na chochote ila kondoo jike mdogo aliyekuwa amemnunua. Akamtunza kondoo huyo, akakulia kwake pamoja na watoto wake. Kondoo huyo alishiriki chakula cha bwana wake na kunywea kikombe chake hata pia huyo kondoo alilala mikononi mwa bwana wake. Kwake alikuwa kama binti yake.
sotheli the pore man hadde vttirli no thing, outakun o litil scheep, which he hadde bouyt, and nurschid, and which `hadde wexid at hym with hise sones, and eet togidere of his breed, and drank of his cuppe, and slepte in his bosum; and it was as a douyter to hym.
4 “Siku moja yule tajiri akafikiwa na mgeni, lakini huyo tajiri akaacha kuchukua mmoja wa kondoo au ngʼombe wake mwenyewe amwandalie mgeni. Badala yake akachukua yule kondoo jike mdogo aliyekuwa mali ya yule maskini na kumwandalia yule mgeni wake.”
Forsothe whanne a pilgrym `hadde come to the riche man, he sparide to take of hise scheep and oxun, that he schulde make a feeste to that pilgrym, that cam to hym; and he took the scheep of the pore man, and `made redi metis to the man that cam to hym.
5 Daudi akawakwa na hasira dhidi ya mtu huyo tajiri na kumwambia Nathani, “Hakika kama Bwana aishivyo, mtu huyo aliyefanya hivyo anastahili kufa!
Forsothe Dauid was ful wrooth with indignacioun ayens that man, and seide to Nathan, The Lord lyueth, for the man that dide this is the sone of deeth;
6 Lazima alipe mara nne zaidi, kwa ajili ya kondoo huyo, kwa sababu amefanya jambo kama hilo na hakuwa na huruma.”
he schal yelde the scheep in to foure folde, for he dide this word, and sparide not.
7 Ndipo Nathani akamwambia Daudi, “Wewe ndiwe huyo mtu! Hivi ndivyo asemavyo Bwana, Mungu wa Israeli: ‘Nilikupaka mafuta uwe mfalme juu ya Israeli, nilikuokoa kutokana na mkono wa Sauli.
Forsothe Nathan seide to Dauid, Thou art thilke man, that hast do this thing. The Lord God of Israel seith these thingis, Y anoyntide thee `in to kyng on Israel, and Y delyuerede thee fro the hond of Saul,
8 Nilikupa nyumba ya bwana wako na wake za bwana wako mikononi mwako. Nikakupa nyumba ya Israeli na Yuda. Kama haya yote yalikuwa madogo sana, ningekupa hata zaidi.
and Y yaf to thee the hows of thi lord, and the wyues of thi lord in thi bosum, and Y yaf to thee the hows of Israel, and of Juda; and if these thingis ben litil, Y schal adde to thee myche grettere thingis.
9 Kwa nini ulilidharau neno la Bwana kwa kufanya lililo ovu machoni pake? Ulimuua Uria, Mhiti kwa upanga na kumchukua mke wake awe mkeo. Ulimuua kwa upanga wa Waamoni.
Whi therfor hast thou dispisid the word of the Lord, that thou didist yuels in my siyt? Thou hast smyte by swerd Vrye Ethei, and thou hast take his wijf in to wijf to thee, and thou hast slayn hym with the swerd of the sones of Amon.
10 Basi kwa hiyo, upanga hautaondoka nyumbani mwako kamwe kwa sababu ulinidharau mimi na kumchukua mke wa Uria, Mhiti kuwa mkeo.’
Wherfor swerd schal not go awey fro thin hows til in to with outen ende; for thou dispysidist me, and tokist the wijf of Vrye Ethei, that sche schulde be thi wijf.
11 “Hili ndilo asemalo Bwana: ‘Kutoka kwa nyumba yako mwenyewe nitaleta maafa juu yako. Mbele ya macho yako mwenyewe nitatwaa wake zako na kumpa yeye aliye wa karibu nawe, naye atakutana kimwili na wake zako mchana mwangavu.
Therfor the Lord seith these thingis, Lo! Y schal reise on thee yuel of thin hows, and Y schal take thi wyues in `thin iyen, and Y schal yyue to thi neiybore, and he schal slepe with thi wyues in the iyen of this sunne, `that is, opynli bifor alle men, as in xv. chapitre.
12 Ulifanya kwa siri, lakini nitalifanya jambo hili wakati wa mchana mwangavu mbele ya Israeli yote.’”
For thou hast do priueli; forsothe Y schal do this word in the siyt of al Israel, and in the siyt of this sunne.
13 Ndipo Daudi akamjibu Nathani, “Nimefanya dhambi dhidi ya Bwana.” Nathani akamjibu, “Bwana amekuondolea dhambi yako. Hutakufa.
And Dauid seide to Nathan, Y haue synned to the Lord. And Nathan seide to Dauid, Also the Lord hath turned awei thi synne; thou schalt not die.
14 Lakini kwa sababu kwa kufanya hili umefanya adui za Bwana kuonyesha dharau kabisa, mwana atakayezaliwa kwako atakufa.”
Netheles for thou madist enemyes to blasfeme the name of the Lord, for this word the child which is borun to thee schal die bi deeth.
15 Baada ya Nathani kurudi nyumbani kwake, Bwana akampiga yule mtoto ambaye mke wa Uria alikuwa amemzalia Daudi, akaugua.
And Nathan turnede ayen in to his hows. And the Lord smoot the litil child, whom the wijf of Vrye childide to Dauid, and he dispeiride.
16 Daudi akamwomba Mungu kwa ajili ya mtoto. Akafunga na akaingia ndani ya nyumba yake akawa siku zote analala sakafuni usiku kucha.
And Dauid preiede the Lord for the litil child; and Dauid fastide bi fastyng, and entride asidis half, and lai on the erthe.
17 Wazee wa nyumbani mwake wakamwendea wakasimama karibu naye ili kumwamsha kutoka pale sakafuni, lakini akakataa, wala hakula chochote pamoja nao.
Sotheli the eldere men of his hows camen, and constreyneden hym `bi meke preieris, that he schulde rise fro the erthe; and he nolde, nethir he eet mete with hem.
18 Kunako siku ya saba yule mtoto akafa. Watumishi wa Daudi wakaogopa kumwambia kuwa mtoto amekufa, kwa maana walifikiri, “Wakati mtoto alipokuwa angali hai, tulizungumza na Daudi lakini hakutusikiliza. Tutawezaje kumwambia kwamba mtoto amekufa? Anaweza kufanya kitu cha kujidhuru.”
Forsothe it bifelde in the seuenthe dai, that the yong child diede; and the seruauntis of Dauid dredde to telle to hym, that the litil child was deed; for thei seiden, Lo! whanne the litil child lyuede yit, we spaken to hym, and he herde not oure vois; hou myche more, if we seien the child is deed, he schal turment himsilf?
19 Daudi akaona kuwa watumishi wake wananongʼonezana wenyewe, naye akatambua kuwa mtoto alikuwa amekufa. Akauliza “Je, ni kwamba huyo mtoto amekufa?” Wakamjibu, “Ndiyo, mtoto amekufa.”
Therfore whanne Dauid hadde herd his seruauntis spekynge priueli, `ether moterynge, he understood that the yong child was deed; `and he seyde to his seruauntis, Whether the child is deed? Whiche answeriden to hym, He is deed.
20 Basi Daudi akainuka kutoka pale sakafuni. Baada ya kuoga, akajipaka mafuta na kubadilisha nguo zake kisha akaenda ndani ya nyumba ya Bwana, akaabudu. Baada ya hapo akaenda nyumbani kwake kwa kutaka kwake, wakamwandalia chakula, naye akala.
Therfor Dauid roos fro the erthe, and was waischid, and anoyntid; and whanne he hadde chaungid cloth, he entride in to the hows of the Lord, and worschipide, and cam in to his hows; and he axide, that thei schulden sette breed to hym, and he eet.
21 Watumishi wake wakamuuliza, “Kwa nini unafanya hivi? Mtoto alipokuwa angali hai, ulifunga na kulia; lakini sasa mtoto amekufa, umeinuka na kula.”
Sothely his seruauntis seiden to hym, What is the word which thou hast do? Thou fastidist, and weptist for the yong child, whanne he lyuede yit; sotheli whanne the child was deed, thou risidist and etist breed?
22 Akajibu, “Wakati mtoto alipokuwa bado yungali hai, nilifunga na kulia. Nilifikiri, ‘Nani ajuaye? Bwana aweza kunirehemu ili kumwacha mtoto aishi.’
And Dauid seide, Y fastide and wepte for the yong child, whanne he lyuyde yit; for Y seide, Who woot, if perauenture the Lord yyue hym to me, and the yong child lyue?
23 Lakini sasa kwa kuwa amekufa, kwa nini nifunge? Je, naweza kumrudisha tena? Mimi nitakwenda kwake, lakini yeye hatanirudia mimi.”
`Now forsothe for he is deed, whi `fast Y? whether Y schal mow ayen clepe hym more? Y schal `go more to hym, but he schal not turne ayen to me.
24 Ndipo Daudi akamfariji Bathsheba mkewe, akaingia kwake akakutana naye kimwili. Akazaa mwana, wakamwita jina lake Solomoni. Bwana alimpenda Solomoni.
And Dauid coumfortid Bersabee, his wijf; and he entride to hir, and slepte with hir. And sche gendride a sone, and Dauid clepide his name Salomon; and the Lord louyde hym.
25 Kwa kuwa Bwana alimpenda, akatuma neno kwa Daudi kwa kinywa cha nabii Nathani kuwa mtoto aitwe Yedidia kwa ajili ya Bwana.
And he sente Salomon in the hond of Nathan, the prophete; and he clepide his name Amyable to the Lord, for the Lord louyde hym.
26 Wakati huo Yoabu akapigana dhidi ya Raba jamii ya Waamoni na kuteka ngome la kifalme.
Therfor Joab fauyt ayens Rabath, of the sones of Amon, and he fauyt ayens the `kyngis citee.
27 Kisha Yoabu akatuma wajumbe kwa Daudi, kusema, “Nimepigana dhidi ya Raba, nami nimetwaa chanzo chake cha maji.
And Joab sente messangeris to Dauid, and seide, Y fauyte ayens Rabath, and the citee of watris schal be takun.
28 Sasa kusanya vikosi vilivyobaki na ukauzingire mji kwa jeshi na kuuteka. La sivyo, nitauteka mimi, nao utaitwa kwa jina langu.”
Now therfor gadere thou the tother part of the puple, and bisege thou the citee, and take thou it, lest whanne the citee is wastid of me, the victorie be arettid to my name.
29 Kwa hiyo Daudi akakusanya jeshi lote akaenda Raba, akaushambulia na kuuteka.
Therfor Dauid gaderide al the puple, and he yede forth ayens Rabath; and whanne he hadde fouyte, he took it.
30 Akachukua taji kutoka kwa kichwa cha mfalme wao, lililokuwa na uzito wa talanta moja ya dhahabu, nayo ilizungushiwa vito vya thamani. Ikawekwa juu ya kichwa cha Daudi. Alichukua nyara nyingi kutoka mjini huo.
And he took the diademe of the kyng of hem fro his heed, bi weiyte a talent of gold, hauynge preciouseste peerlis; and it was put on the heed of Dauid, `that is, aftir that it was weldid and purgid bi fier; but also Dauid bar awey ful myche prey of the citee.
31 Akawatoa watu waliokuwa humo, akawaweka wafanye kazi kwa misumeno, sululu za chuma na mashoka, naye akawaweka kwenye kazi ya kutengeneza matofali. Akafanya hivi kwa miji yote ya Waamoni. Kisha Daudi na jeshi lake lote wakarudi Yerusalemu.
Also he ledde forth the puple therof, and sawide, and `dide aboute hem `yrun instrumentis of turment, and departide with knyues, and `ledde ouer bi the licnesse of tijl stoonus; so he dide to alle the citees of the sones of Amon. And Dauid turnede ayen, and al his oost, in to Jerusalem.
