2 Samuel 11

1 Dumating ang panahon ng tagsibol, ng panahong iyon karaniwang pumupunta ang mga hari sa digmaan, ipinadala ni David si Joab at ang kaniyang mga lingkod, at ang buong hukbo ng Israel. Winasak nila ang hukbo ng Ammon at kinubkob ang Rabba. Pero si David ay nanatili sa Jerusalem.

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 Kaya isang gabi nang bumangon si David mula sa kaniyang higaan at naglakad-lakad sa bubong ng kaniyang palasyo. Mula roon nagkataong nakita niya ang isang babaeng naliligo, at sadyang napakagandang pagmasdan.

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 Kaya nagpatawag si David ng mga tao at tinanong kung sino ang nakakakilala sa babaeng iyon. May isang nagsabi, “Hindi ba ito si Batsheba, ang anak na babae ni Eliam, hindi ba asawa siya ni Urias na anak na Heteo?”

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 Nagpadala si David ng mga sugo at siya ay ipinakuha; nagtungo ang babae sa kaniya, at sinipingan siya ni David (kakatapos lamang niyang gawing dalisay ang kaniyang sarili mula sa pagreregla). Pagkatapos bumalik siya sa kaniyang bahay.

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 Nabuntis ang babae, at pinasabi niya kay David; sinabi niyang, “Buntis ako.”

And the woman conceived; and she sent and told David, and said, I am with child.

6 Pagkatapos nagpadala ng liham si David kay Joab, na nagsasabing, “Ipadala si Urias na isang Heteo.” Kaya ipinadala ni Joab si Urias kay David.

And David sent to Joab, saying, Send me Urias the Chettite; and Joab sent Urias to David.

7 Nang dumating si Urias, tinanong siya ni David kung kumusta si Joab, kamusta ang ginagawa ng mga hukbo, at kumusta ang nangyayaring digmaan.

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 Sinabi ni David kay Urias, “Umuwi ka sa iyong bahay, at hugasan mo ang iyong paa.” Kaya umalis si Urias sa palasyo ng hari, at nagpadala ng isang regalo ang hari para kay Urias matapos siyang umalis.

And David said to Urias, Go to thy house, and wash thy feet: and Urias departed from the house of the king, and a portion [of meat] from the king followed him.

9 Pero natulog si Urias sa pintuan ng palasyo ng hari kasama ang lahat ng mga lingkod ng kaniyang amo, at hindi siya umuwi sa kaniyang bahay.

And Urias slept at the door of the king with the servants of his lord, and went not down to his house.

10 Nang sinabi nila kay David, “Hindi umuwi si Urias sa kaniyang bahay,” Sinabi ni David kay Urias, “Hindi ba galing ka sa paglalakbay? Bakit hindi ka umuwi sa iyong bahay?

And they brought David word, saying, Urias has not gone down to his house. And David said to Urias, Art thou not come from a journey? why hast thou not gone down to thy house?

11 Sumagot si Urias kay David, “Ang kaban, at ang Israel at Juda ay nananatili sa mga tolda, at nakakampo ang aking amo na si Joab at kaniyang mga lingkod sa isang hayag na bukid. Paano ako mamakapunta sa aking bahay para kumain at uminom at sumiping sa aking asawa? Titiyakin kong habang ikaw ay nabubuhay, hindi ko ito gagawin.”

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] thy soul lives, I will not do this thing.

12 Kaya sinabi ni David kay Urias, “Manatili ka rin ngayon dito, at bukas hahayaan kitang makaalis.” Kaya nanatili si Urias sa Jerusalem sa araw na iyon at sa sumunod na araw.

And David said to Urias, Remain here to-day also, and to-morrow I will let thee go. So Urias remained in Jerusalem that day and the day following.

13 Nang pinatawag siya ni David, kumain siya at uminom kasama niya, at nilasing siya ni David. Kinagabihan lumabas si Urias para matulog sa kaniyang higaan kasama ang mga lingkod ng kaniyang amo; hindi siya umuwi sa kaniyang bahay.

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 Kaya kinabukasan sumulat si David ng isang liham kay Joab, at pinadala ito sa kamay ni Urias.

And the morning came, and David wrote a letter to Joab, and sent it by the hand of Urias.

15 Sumulat si David ng liham na nagsasabing, “Ilagay si Urias sa pinaka harap ng matinding labanan, at pagkatapos pabayaan siya, para matamaan at mamatay.”

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 Kaya habang pinapanood ni Joab ang paglusob sa lungsod, itinalaga niya si Urias sa lugar na kung saan alam niyang malalakas ang mga sundalong kaaway na kaniyang masasagupa.

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 Nang lumabas ang mga kalalakihan sa lungsod at nakipaglaban sa hukbo ni Joab, napatumba ang ilan sa mga sundalo ni David, at namatay rin doon si Urias na isang Heteo.

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 Nang nagpadala ng liham si Joab kay David tungkol sa lahat ng bagay na nauukol sa digmaan,

And Joab sent, and reported to David all the events of the war, so as to tell them to the king.

19 inutusan niya ang sugo, sa pagsasabing, “Kapag matapos mong sabihin ang lahat ng mga bagay tungkol sa digmaan sa hari,

And he charged the messenger, saying, When thou hast finished reporting all the events of the war to the king,

20 mangyayari na magalit ang hari, at sasabihin niya sa iyo, 'Bakit kayo lumapit nang husto sa lungsod para lumaban? Hindi ninyo ba alam na nagpapatama sila ng palaso mula sa pader?

then it shall come to pass if the anger of the king shall arise, and he shall say to thee, Why did ye draw nigh to the city to fight? knew ye not that they would shoot from off the wall?

21 Sino ang pumatay kay Abimelec anak na lalaki Jerubeset? Hindi ba isang babae ang naghagis ng isang gilingang pang-ibabaw sa kaniya mula sa pader, kaya namatay siya sa Tebez? Bakit kayo lumapit ng husto sa pader?' Kung gayon ang dapat mong isagot, 'Ang lingkod mong si Urias na isa Heteo ay patay na rin.'”

Who smote 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 ye draw near to the wall? then thou shalt say, Thy servant Urias the Chettite is also dead.

22 Kaya umalis ang ipinadalang mensahero at nagtungo kay David at sinabi sa kaniya ang lahat ng bagay na ipinasasabi ni Joab sa kaniya.

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 ye draw nigh to the wall to fight? knew ye not that ye would be wounded from off the wall? Who smote 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 ye draw near to the wall?

23 At sinabi ng mensahero kay David, “Higit na malakas ang mga kaaway kaysa sa amin sa simula pa lang; kami ay sinalakay nila sa bukid, pero napaatras namin sila sa pasukan ng tarangkahan.

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 At tinamaan ng kanilang mga tagapana ang inyong mga sundalo mula sa pader, at ilan sa mga lingkod ng hari ay napatay, at napatay rin ang iyong lingkod na si Urias na isang Heteo.”

And the archers shot at thy servants from off the wall, and some of the king's servants died, and thy servant Urias the Chettite is dead also.

25 Pagkatapos sinabi rin ni David sa mensahero, “Sabihin mo ito kay Joab, 'Huwag mo itong ikalungkot, dahil nasasakmal ng espada ang kahit sino. Gawin mong higit na mas malakas ang iyong pakikipagdigmaan laban sa lungsod, at pabagsakin ito.' At palakasin mo ang loob ni Joab.”

And David said to the messenger, Thus shalt thou say to Joab, Let not the matter be grievous in thine eyes, for the sword devours one way at one time and another way at another: strengthen thine array against the city, and destroy it, and strengthen him.

26 Kaya nang marinig ng asawa ni Urias na patay na ang kaniyang asawa, siya ay lubos na nanangis para sa kaniyang asawa.

And the wife of Urias heard that Urias her husband was dead, and she mourned for her husband.

27 Nang lumipas ang kaniyang kalungkutan, ipinakuha siya ni David at dinala siya sa kaniyang palasyo, at naging asawa niya ito at nagkaroon sila ng anak na lalaki. Pero ang ginawa ni David ay hindi kalugud-lugod kay Yahweh.

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.
