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 at the return of the year, at the time when kings go forth to war, that David sent Joab and his servants with him, and all Israel, and they spoiled the children of Ammon, and besieged Rabba: but David remained in 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.
In the mean time it happened that David arose from his bed after noon, and walked upon the roof of the king’s house: and he saw from the roof of his house a woman washing herself, over against him: and the woman was very beautiful.
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 the king sent, and inquired who the woman was. And it was told him, that she was Bethsabee the daughter of Eliam, the wife of Urias the Hethite.
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 she came in to him, and he slept with her: and presently she was purified from her uncleanness:
5 Nabuntis ang babae, at pinasabi niya kay David; sinabi niyang, “Buntis ako.”
And she returned to her house having conceived. And she sent and told David, and said: I have conceived.
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 Hethite. 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 came to David. And David asked how Joab did, and the people, and how the war was carried 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 into thy house, and wash thy feet. And Urias went out from the king’s house, and there went out after him a mess of meat from the king.
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.
But Urias slept before the gate of the king’s house, with the other servants of his lord, and went not down to his own 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 it was told David by some that said: Urias went not to his house. And David said to Urias: Didst thou not come from thy journey? why didst thou not go 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 of God and Israel and Juda dwell in tents, and my lord Joab and the servants of my lord abide upon the face of the earth: and shall I go into my house, to eat and to drink, and to sleep with my wife? By thy welfare and by the welfare of thy soul 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.
Then David said to Urias: Tarry here today, and tomorrow I will send thee away. Urias tarried in Jerusalem that day and the next.
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 to eat and to drink before him, and he made him drunk: and he went out in the evening, and slept on his couch with the servants of his lord, and went not down into his house.
14 Kaya kinabukasan sumulat si David ng isang liham kay Joab, at pinadala ito sa kamay ni Urias.
And when the morning was come, 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.”
Writing in the letter: Set ye Urias in the front of the battle, where the fight is strongest: and leave ye him, that he may 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.
Wherefore as Joab was besieging the city, he put Urias in the place where he knew the bravest 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 coming out of the city, fought against Joab, and there fell some of the people of the servants of David, and Urias the Hethite was killed also.
18 Nang nagpadala ng liham si Joab kay David tungkol sa lahat ng bagay na nauukol sa digmaan,
Then Joab sent, and told David all things concerning the battle.
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 told all the words of the battle 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?
If thou see him to be angry, and he shall say: Why did you approach so near to the wall to fight? knew you not that many darts are thrown from above 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 killed Abimelech the son of Jerobaal? did not a woman cast a piece of a millstone upon him from the wall, and slew him in Thebes? Why did you go near the wall? Thou shalt say: Thy servant Urias the Hethite is also slain.
22 Kaya umalis ang ipinadalang mensahero at nagtungo kay David at sinabi sa kaniya ang lahat ng bagay na ipinasasabi ni Joab sa kaniya.
So the messenger departed, and came and told David all that Joab had commanded him.
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 to us into the field: and we vigorously charged and pursued them even to the gate of the city.
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 their arrows at thy servants from off the wall above: and some of the king’s servants are slain, and thy servant Urias the Hethite is also dead.
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 this thing discourage thee: for various is the event of war: and sometimes one, sometimes another is consumed by the sword: encourage thy warriors against The city, and exhort them that thou mayest overthrow it.
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 him.
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 mourning being over, David sent and brought her into his house, and she became his wife, and she bore him a son: and this thing which David had done, was displeasing to the Lord.
