1 Chronicles 21
1 Satani sì dúró ti Israẹli, ó sì ti Dafidi láti ka iye Israẹli.
Then Satan stands up against Israel, and persuades David to number Israel,
2 Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni Dafidi sì wí fún Joabu àti àwọn olórí àwọn ènìyàn pé, “Lọ kí o ka iye àwọn ọmọ Israẹli láti Beerṣeba títí dé Dani. Kí o sì padà mú iye wọn fún mi wa, kí èmi kí ó le mọ iye tí wọ́n jẹ́.”
and David says to Joab and to the heads of the people, “Go, number Israel from Beer-Sheba even to Dan, and bring [the account] to me, and I know their number.”
3 Ṣùgbọ́n Joabu dá a lóhùn pé, “Kí Olúwa kí ó mú àwọn ènìyàn rẹ̀ pọ̀ sí ní ìgbà ọgọ́rùn-ún ju ti tẹ́lẹ̀ lọ, ọba olúwa mi, gbogbo wọn kì í ha ṣe ìránṣẹ́ olúwa ni? Kí ni ó dé tí olúwa mi ṣe fẹ́ ṣè yìí? Kí ni ó de tí yóò fi mú ẹ̀bi wá sórí Israẹli?”
And Joab says, “YHWH adds to His people as they are one hundred times; are they not, my lord, O king, all of them for servants to my lord? Why does my lord seek this? Why is he for a cause of guilt to Israel?”
4 Ṣùgbọ́n ọ̀rọ̀ ọba borí tí Joabu. Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni Joabu jáde lọ, ó sì la gbogbo Israẹli já, ó sí dé Jerusalẹmu.
And the word of the king [is] severe against Joab, and Joab goes out, and goes up and down in all Israel, and comes to Jerusalem.
5 Joabu sì fi àpapọ̀ iye àwọn ènìyàn náà fún Dafidi. Ní gbogbo Israẹli, ó sì jẹ́ ẹgbẹ̀rún ẹgbẹ̀rún àti ọ̀kẹ́ márùn-ún ènìyàn tí ń kọ́ idà, Juda sì jẹ́ ọ̀kẹ́ mẹ́tàlélógún lé ẹgbàárùn-ún ọkùnrin tí ń kọ́ idà.
And Joab gives the account of the numbering of the people to David, and all Israel is one million and one hundred thousand, each drawing sword, and Judah [is] four hundred and seventy thousand, each drawing sword.
6 Ṣùgbọ́n Joabu kó àwọn Lefi àti Benjamini mọ́ iye wọn, nítorí àṣẹ ọba jẹ́ ìríra fún un.
And he has not numbered Levi and Benjamin in their midst, for the word of the king was abominable with Joab.
7 Àṣẹ yìí pẹ̀lú sì jẹ́ búburú lójú Ọlọ́run, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ó sì díyàjẹ Israẹli.
And it is evil in the eyes of God concerning this thing, and He strikes Israel,
8 Nígbà náà Dafidi sọ fún Ọlọ́run pé, èmi ti dẹ́ṣẹ̀ gidigidi nípa ṣíṣe èyí. Nísinsin yìí, èmi bẹ̀ ọ́, mú ìjẹ̀bi àwọn ìránṣẹ́ rẹ kúrò. Èmi ti hùwà aṣiwèrè gidigidi.
and David says to God, “I have sinned exceedingly in that I have done this thing; and now, please cause the iniquity of Your servant to pass away, for I have acted very foolishly.”
9 Olúwa sì fi fún Gadi, aríran Dafidi pé.
And YHWH speaks to Gad, seer of David, saying,
10 “Lọ kí o sì wí fún Dafidi pé, ‘Báyìí ni Olúwa wí, èmi fi nǹkan mẹ́ta lọ̀ ọ́; yan ọ̀kan nínú wọn, kí èmi ó sì ṣe é sí ọ.’”
“Go, and you have spoken to David, saying, Thus said YHWH: I am extending three [choices] to you; choose one of these for yourself, and I do [it] to you.”
11 Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni Gadi tọ Dafidi wá, ó sì wí fún un pé, “Báyìí ni Olúwa wí: ‘Yan fún ara rẹ.
And Gad comes to David and says to him, “Thus said YHWH: Take for yourself—
12 Ọdún mẹ́ta ìyàn, tàbí ìparun ní oṣù mẹ́ta níwájú àwọn ọ̀tá rẹ, pẹ̀lú idà wọn láti lé ọ bá, tàbí ọjọ́ mẹ́ta idà Olúwa ọjọ́ àjàkálẹ̀-ààrùn ní ilẹ̀ náà, pẹ̀lú àwọn angẹli Olúwa láti pa gbogbo agbègbè Israẹli run.’ Nísinsin yìí ǹjẹ́, rò ó wò, èsì wo ni èmi yóò mú padà tọ ẹni tí ó rán mi.”
either famine for three years, or three months to be consumed from the face of your adversaries (even [for] the sword of your enemies to overtake), or three days of the sword of YHWH (even pestilence in the land, and a messenger of YHWH destroying in all the border of Israel); and now, see; what word do I return to Him who is sending me?”
13 Dafidi sì wí fún Gadi pé, “Ìyọnu ńlá bá mi. Jẹ́ kí èmi kí ó ṣubú sí ọwọ́ Olúwa nísinsin yìí, nítorí tí àánú rẹ̀ pọ̀ gidigidi, ṣùgbọ́n má ṣe jẹ́ kí èmi kí o ṣubú sí ọwọ́ àwọn ènìyàn.”
And David says to Gad, “I am greatly distressed, please let me fall into the hand of YHWH, for His mercies [are] very many, and do not let me fall into the hand of man.”
14 Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni Olúwa rán àjàkálẹ̀-ààrùn lórí Israẹli, àwọn tí ó ṣubú ní Israẹli jẹ́ ẹgbẹ̀rún ní ọ̀nà àádọ́rin ènìyàn.
And YHWH gives a pestilence in Israel, and there falls from Israel seventy thousand men,
15 Ọlọ́run sì rán angẹli kan sí Jerusalẹmu láti pa wọ́n run. Ṣùgbọ́n bí angẹli ti ń pa wọ́n run, Olúwa sì wò. Ó sì káàánú nítorí ibi náà, ó sì wí fún angẹli tí ó pa àwọn ènìyàn náà run pé, “Ó ti tó! Dá ọwọ́ rẹ dúró.” Angẹli Olúwa náà sì dúró níbi ilẹ̀ ìpakà Arauna ará Jebusi.
and God sends a messenger to Jerusalem to destroy it, and as he is destroying, YHWH has seen, and is comforted concerning the calamity, and says to the messenger who [is] destroying, “Enough now, cease your hand.” And the messenger of YHWH is standing by the threshing-floor of Ornan the Jebusite,
16 Dafidi sì wòkè ó sì rí angẹli Olúwa dúró láàrín ọ̀run àti ayé pẹ̀lú idà fífàyọ ní ọwọ́ rẹ̀ tí ó sì nà án sórí Jerusalẹmu. Nígbà náà Dafidi àti àwọn àgbàgbà, sì wọ aṣọ ọ̀fọ̀, wọ́n sì da ojú wọn bolẹ̀.
and David lifts up his eyes, and sees the messenger of YHWH standing between the earth and the heavens, and his sword [is] drawn in his hand, stretched out over Jerusalem, and David falls, and the elderly, covered with sackcloth, on their faces.
17 Dafidi sì wí fún Ọlọ́run pé, “Èmi ha kọ́ ni mo pàṣẹ àti ka àwọn jagunjagun ènìyàn? Èmi ni ẹni náà tí ó dẹ́ṣẹ̀ tí ó sì ṣe ohun búburú pàápàá, ṣùgbọ́n bí ó ṣe ti àgùntàn wọ̀nyí, kí ni wọ́n ṣe? Èmí bẹ̀ ọ́ Olúwa Ọlọ́run mi, jẹ́ kí ọwọ́ rẹ kí ó wà lára mi àti àwọn ìdílé baba mi, ṣùgbọ́n má ṣe jẹ́ kí àjàkálẹ̀-ààrùn yìí kí ó dúró lórí àwọn ènìyàn rẹ.”
And David says to God, “Did I not command to number the people? Indeed, it [is] I who have sinned, and done great evil: and these, the flock, what did they do? O YHWH, my God, please let Your hand be on me, and on the house of my father, and not on Your people—to be plagued.”
18 Nígbà náà angẹli Olúwa náà pàṣẹ fún Gadi láti sọ fún Dafidi pé, kí Dafidi kí ó gòkè lọ, kí ó sì tẹ́ pẹpẹ kan fún Olúwa lórí ilẹ̀ ìpakà Arauna ará Jebusi.
And the messenger of YHWH commanded to Gad to say to David, “Surely David goes up to raise an altar to YHWH in the threshing-floor of Ornan the Jebusite.”
19 Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni Dafidi sì gòkè lọ pẹ̀lú ìgbọ́ràn sí ọ̀rọ̀ tí Gadi ti sọ ní orúkọ Olúwa.
And David goes up by the word of Gad, that he spoke in the Name of YHWH.
20 Nígbà tí Arauna sì ń pakà lọ́wọ́, ó sì yípadà ó sì rí angẹli; àwọn ọmọ rẹ̀ mẹ́rẹ̀ẹ̀rin tí ó wà pẹ̀lú rẹ̀ pa ará wọn mọ́.
And Ornan turns back and sees the messenger, and his four sons [are] with him hiding themselves, and Ornan is threshing wheat.
21 Bí Dafidi sì ti dé ọ̀dọ̀ Arauna, Arauna sì wò, ó sì rí Dafidi, ó sì ti ibi ilẹ̀ ìpakà rẹ̀ jáde, ó sì wólẹ̀, ó dojúbolẹ̀ níwájú Dafidi.
And David comes to Ornan, and Ornan looks attentively and sees David, and goes out from the threshing-floor, and bows himself to David—face to the earth.
22 Dafidi sì wí fún Arauna pé, “Jẹ́ kí èmi kí ó ni ibi ìpakà rẹ kí èmi kí ó sì lè tẹ́ pẹpẹ kan níbẹ̀ fún Olúwa, ìwọ ó sì fi fún mi ni iye owó rẹ̀ pípé, kí a lè dá àjàkálẹ̀-ààrùn dúró lọ́dọ̀ àwọn ènìyàn.”
And David says to Ornan, “Give the place of the threshing-floor to me, and I build an altar to YHWH in it; give it to me for full price, and the plague is restrained from the people.”
23 Arauna sì wí fún Dafidi pé, “Mú un fún ara rẹ, sì jẹ́ kí olúwa mi ọba kí ó ṣe ohun tí ó dára lójú rẹ̀. Wò ó, èmí yóò fún ọ ní àwọn màlúù fún ẹbọ sísun, àti ohun èlò ìpakà fún igi, àti ọkà fún ọrẹ oúnjẹ. Èmi yóò fun ọ ní gbogbo èyí.”
And Ornan says to David, “Take [it] to yourself, and my lord the king does that which is good in his eyes; see, I have given the oxen for burnt-offerings, and the threshing instruments for wood, and the wheat for a present; I have given the whole.”
24 Ṣùgbọ́n ọba Dafidi dá Arauna lóhùn pé, “Bẹ́ẹ̀ kọ́, ṣùgbọ́n èmi yóò rà á ní iye owó rẹ̀ ní pípé, nítorí èmi kì yóò èyí tí ó jẹ́ tìrẹ fún Olúwa, tàbí láti rú ẹbọ sísun tí kò ná mi ní ohun kan.”
And King David says to Ornan, “No, for I surely buy [it] for full price; for I do not lift up that which is yours to YHWH, so as to offer a burnt-offering without cost.”
25 Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni Dafidi san ẹgbẹ̀ta ṣékélì wúrà fún Arauna nípa ìwọ̀n fún ibẹ̀ náà.
And David gives to Ornan six hundred shekels of gold [in] weight for the place;
26 Dafidi sì tẹ́ pẹpẹ fún Olúwa níbẹ̀ ó sì rú ẹbọ sísun àti ẹbọ ọpẹ́. Ó sì ké pe Olúwa, Olúwa sì fi iná dá a lóhùn láti òkè ọ̀run wá lórí pẹpẹ fún ẹbọ ọrẹ sísun.
and David builds an altar to YHWH there, and offers burnt-offerings and peace-offerings, and calls to YHWH, and He answers him from the heavens with fire on the altar of the burnt-offering.
27 Nígbà náà Olúwa sọ̀rọ̀ sí angẹli, ó sì gbé idà padà bọ̀ sínú àkọ̀ rẹ̀.
And YHWH speaks to the messenger, and he turns back his sword to its sheath.
28 Ní àkókò náà nígbà tí Dafidi sì rí wí pé Olúwa ti dá a lóhùn lórí ilẹ̀ ìpakà ti Arauna ará Jebusi, ó sì rú ẹbọ sísun níbẹ̀.
At that time, when David sees that YHWH has answered him in the threshing-floor of Ornan the Jebusite, then he sacrifices there;
29 Àgọ́ Olúwa tí Mose ti ṣe ní aginjù, àti pẹpẹ ẹbọ sísun wà lórí ibi gíga ní Gibeoni ní àkókò náà.
and the Dwelling Place of YHWH that Moses made in the wilderness, and the altar of the burnt-offering, [are] at that time at a high place in Gibeon;
30 Ṣùgbọ́n Dafidi kò lè lọ síwájú rẹ̀ láti béèrè lọ́wọ́ Ọlọ́run, nítorí tí ó bẹ̀rù nípa idà ọwọ́ angẹli Olúwa.
and David is not able to go before it to seek God, for he has been afraid because of the sword of the messenger of YHWH.
