< 2 Samuel 12 >

1 Olúwa sì rán Natani sí Dafidi òun sì tọ̀ ọ́ wá, ó sì wí fún un pé, “Ọkùnrin méjì ń bẹ ní ìlú kan; ọ̀kan jẹ́ ọlọ́rọ̀, èkejì sì jẹ́ tálákà.
And YHWH sends Nathan to David, and he comes to him, and says to him: “Two men have been in one city, one rich and one poor.
2 Ọkùnrin ọlọ́rọ̀ náà sì ní àgùntàn àti màlúù lọ́pọ̀lọ́pọ̀.
The rich has very many flocks and herds,
3 Ṣùgbọ́n ọkùnrin tálákà náà kò sì ní nǹkan bí kò ṣe àgùntàn kékeré kan èyí tí ó sì ń tọ́, ó sì dàgbà ní ọwọ́ rẹ̀ pẹ̀lú àwọn ọmọ rẹ̀; a máa jẹ nínú oúnjẹ rẹ̀, a sí máa mu nínú ago rẹ̀, a sì máa dùbúlẹ̀ ní àyà rẹ̀, ó sì dàbí ọmọbìnrin kan fún un.
but the poor one has nothing, except one little ewe-lamb which he has bought and keeps alive. And it grows up together with him and with his sons. It eats of his morsel, and it drinks from his cup, and it lies in his bosom, and it is as a daughter to him.
4 “Àlejò kan sì tọ ọkùnrin ọlọ́rọ̀ náà wá, òun kò sì fẹ́ mú nínú àgùntàn rẹ̀, àti nínú màlúù rẹ̀, láti fi ṣe àlejò fún ẹni tí ó tọ̀ ọ́ wá, o sì mú àgùntàn ọkùnrin tálákà náà fi ṣe àlejò fún ọkùnrin tí ó tọ̀ ọ́ wá.”
And a traveler comes to the rich man, and he spares to take from his own flock, and from his own herd, to prepare for the traveling [man] who has come to him; and he takes the ewe-lamb of the poor man and prepares it for the man who has come to him.”
5 Ìbínú Dafidi sì ru gidigidi sí ọkùnrin náà; ó sì wí fún Natani pé, “Bí Olúwa ti ń bẹ láààyè, ọkùnrin náà tí ó ṣe nǹkan yìí, kíkú ni yóò kú.
And the anger of David burns against the man exceedingly, and he says to Nathan, “YHWH lives, surely the man who is doing this [is] a son of death,
6 Òun yóò sì san àgùntàn náà padà ní mẹ́rin mẹ́rin, nítorí tí ó ṣe nǹkan yìí àti nítorí tí kò ní àánú.”
and [for] the ewe-lamb he repays fourfold, because that he has done this thing, and because that he had no pity.”
7 Natani sì wí fún Dafidi pé, “Ìwọ ni ọkùnrin náà. Báyìí ni Olúwa Ọlọ́run Israẹli wí, ‘Èmi fi ọ́ jẹ ọba lórí Israẹli, èmi sì gbà ọ́ lọ́wọ́ Saulu.
And Nathan says to David, “You [are] the man! Thus said YHWH, God of Israel: I anointed you for king over Israel, and I delivered you out of the hand of Saul;
8 Èmi sì fi ilé olúwa rẹ fún ọ, àti àwọn obìnrin olúwa rẹ sí àyà rẹ, èmi sì fi ìdílé Israẹli àti ti Juda fún ọ; tí àwọn wọ̀nyí bá sì kéré jù fún ọ èmi ìbá sì fún ọ sí i jù bẹ́ẹ̀ lọ.
and I give to you the house of your lord, and the wives of your lord, into your bosom, and I give the house of Israel and Judah to you; and if [that is] too little, then I add such and such [things] to you.
9 Èéṣe tí ìwọ fi kẹ́gàn ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa, tí ìwọ fi ṣe nǹkan tí ó burú lójú rẹ̀, àní tí ìwọ fi fi idà pa Uriah ará Hiti, àti tí ìwọ fi mú obìnrin rẹ̀ láti fi ṣe obìnrin rẹ, o sì fi idà àwọn ọmọ Ammoni pa á.
Why have you despised the word of YHWH, to do evil in His eyes? You have struck Uriah the Hittite by the sword, and you have taken his wife for a wife for yourself, and you have slain him by the sword of the sons of Ammon.
10 Ǹjẹ́ nítorí náà idà kì yóò kúrò ní ilé rẹ títí láé; nítorí pé ìwọ gàn mí, ìwọ sì mú aya Uriah ará Hiti láti ṣe aya rẹ.’
And now, the sword does not turn aside from your house for all time, because you have despised Me, and take the wife of Uriah the Hittite to be for a wife for yourself;
11 “Báyìí ni Olúwa wí, kíyèsi i, ‘Èmi ó jẹ́ kí ibi kí ó dìde sí ọ láti inú ilé rẹ wá, èmi ó sì gba àwọn obìnrin rẹ lójú rẹ, èmi ó sì fi wọ́n fún aládùúgbò rẹ, òun ó sì bá àwọn obìnrin rẹ sùn níwájú òòrùn yìí.
thus said YHWH: Behold, I am raising up calamity against you, out of your [own] house, and have taken your wives before your eyes, and given [them] to your neighbor, and he has lain with your wives before the eyes of this sun;
12 Àti pé ìwọ ṣe é ní ìkọ̀kọ̀, ṣùgbọ́n èmi ó ṣe nǹkan yìí níwájú gbogbo Israẹli, àti níwájú òòrùn.’”
for you have done [it] in secret, and I do this thing before all Israel, and before the sun.”
13 Dafidi sì wí fún Natani pé, “Èmi ṣẹ̀ sí Olúwa!” Natani sì wí fún Dafidi pé, “Olúwa pẹ̀lú sì ti mú ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ rẹ kúrò; ìwọ kì yóò kú.
And David says to Nathan, “I have sinned against YHWH.” And Nathan says to David, “Also—YHWH has caused your sin to pass away; you do not die;
14 Ṣùgbọ́n nítorí nípa ìwà yìí, ìwọ fi ààyè sílẹ̀ fún àwọn ọ̀tá Olúwa láti sọ ọ̀rọ̀-òdì, ọmọ náà tí a ó bí fún ọ, kíkú ní yóò kú.”
only, because you have caused the enemies of YHWH to greatly despise by this thing, also—the son who is born to you surely dies.”
15 Natani sì lọ sí ilé rẹ̀ Olúwa sì fi ààrùn kọlu ọmọ náà tí obìnrin Uriah bí fún Dafidi, ó sì ṣe àìsàn púpọ̀.
And Nathan goes to his house, and YHWH strikes the boy, whom the wife of Uriah has borne to David, and it is incurable;
16 Dafidi sì bẹ Ọlọ́run nítorí ọmọ náà, Dafidi sì gbààwẹ̀, ó sì wọ inú ilé lọ, ó sì dùbúlẹ̀ lórí ilé ni òru náà.
and David seeks God for the youth, and David keeps a fast, and has gone in and lodged, and lain on the earth.
17 Àwọn àgbàgbà ilé rẹ̀ sì dìde tọ̀ ọ́ lọ, láti gbé e dìde lórí ilé, ó sì kọ̀, kò sì bá wọn jẹun.
And [the] elderly of his house rise against him, to raise him up from the earth, and he has not been willing, nor has he eaten bread with them;
18 Ní ọjọ́ keje, ọmọ náà sì kú. Àwọn ìránṣẹ́ Dafidi sì bẹ̀rù láti wí fún un pé, ọmọ náà kú: nítorí tí wọ́n wí pé, “Kíyèsi i, nígbà tí ọmọ náà ń bẹ láààyè, àwa sọ̀rọ̀ fún un, òun kọ̀ si gbọ́ ohùn wa! Ǹjẹ́ yóò ti ṣe ara rẹ̀ ní èṣe tó, bí àwa bá wí fún un pé, ọmọ náà kú.”
and it comes to pass on the seventh day, that the boy dies, and the servants of David fear to declare to him that the boy is dead, for they said, “Behold, in the boy being alive we spoke to him, and he did not listen to our voice; and how do we say to him, The boy is dead? Then he has done evil.”
19 Nígbà tí Dafidi sì rí pé àwọn ìránṣẹ́ rẹ̀ ń sọ̀rọ̀ kẹ́lẹ́kẹ́lẹ́, Dafidi sì kíyèsi i, pé ọmọ náà kú, Dafidi sì béèrè lọ́wọ́ àwọn ìránṣẹ́ rẹ̀ pé, “Ọmọ náà kú bí?” Wọ́n sì dá a lóhùn pé, “Ó kú.”
And David sees that his servants are whispering, and David understands that the boy is dead, and David says to his servants, “Is the boy dead?” And they say, “Dead.”
20 Dafidi sì dìde ní ilẹ̀, ó sì wẹ̀, ó fi òróró pa ara, ó sì pààrọ̀ aṣọ rẹ̀, ó sì wọ inú ilé Olúwa lọ, ó sì wólẹ̀ sin, ó sì wá sí ilé rẹ̀ ó sì béèrè, wọ́n sì gbé oúnjẹ kalẹ̀ níwájú rẹ̀, ó sì jẹun.
And David rises from the earth, and bathes and anoints [himself], and changes his raiment, and comes into the house of YHWH, and bows himself, and comes to his house, and asks and they place bread for him, and he eats.
21 Àwọn ìránṣẹ́ rẹ̀ sì bí léèrè pé, “Kí ni èyí tí ìwọ ṣe yìí? Nítorí ọmọ náà nígbà tí ó ń bẹ láààyè ìwọ gbààwẹ̀, o sì sọkún; ṣùgbọ́n nígbà tí ọmọ náà kú, ó dìde ó sì jẹun.”
And his servants say to him, “What [is] this thing you have done? Because of the living boy you have fasted and you weep, and when the boy is dead you have risen and eat bread.”
22 Ó sì wí pé, “Nígbà tí ọmọ náà ń bẹ láààyè, èmi gbààwẹ̀, èmi sì sọkún: nítorí tí èmi wí pé, ‘Ta ni ó mọ̀? Bí Olúwa ó ṣàánú mi, kí ọmọ náà le yè.’
And he says, “While the boy is alive I have fasted and I weep, for I said, Who knows [if] YHWH pities me and the boy has lived?
23 Ṣùgbọ́n nísinsin yìí, ó ti kú, nítorí kín ni èmi ó ṣe máa gbààwẹ̀? Èmi ha tún lè mú un padà bí? Èmi ni yóò tọ̀ ọ́ lọ, òun kì yóò sì tún tọ̀ mí wá.”
And now, he has died, why [is] this—I fast? Am I able to bring him back again? I am going to him, and he does not return to me.”
24 Dafidi sì ṣìpẹ̀ fún Batṣeba aya rẹ̀, ó sì wọlé tọ̀ ọ́, ó sì bá a dàpọ̀, òun sì bí ọmọkùnrin kan, Dafidi sì sọ orúkọ rẹ̀ ní Solomoni, Olúwa sì fẹ́ ẹ.
And David comforts his wife Bathsheba, and goes in to her, and lies with her, and she bears a son, and he calls his name Solomon; and YHWH has loved him,
25 Ó sì rán Natani wòlíì, ó sì pe orúkọ rẹ̀ ní Jedidiah, nítorí Olúwa.
and sends by the hand of Nathan the prophet, and calls his name Jedidiah, because of YHWH.
26 Joabu sì bá Rabba ti àwọn ọmọ Ammoni jagun, ó sì gba ìlú ọba wọn.
And Joab fights against Rabbah of the sons of Ammon, and captures the royal city,
27 Joabu sì rán àwọn ìránṣẹ́ sí Dafidi, ó sì wí pé, “Èmi ti bá Rabba jà, èmi sì ti gba àwọn ìlú olómi.
and Joab sends messengers to David and says, “I have fought against Rabbah—I have also captured the city of waters;
28 Ǹjẹ́ nítorí náà kó àwọn ènìyàn ìyókù jọ, kí o sì dó ti ìlú náà, kí o sì gbà á, kí èmi má bá à gba ìlú náà kí a má ba à pè é ní orúkọ mi.”
and now, gather the rest of the people, and encamp against the city, and capture it, lest I capture the city, and my name has been called on it.”
29 Dafidi sì kó gbogbo ènìyàn náà jọ, sí Rabba, ó sì bá a jà, ó sì gbà á.
And David gathers all the people, and goes to Rabbah, and fights against it, and captures it;
30 Òun sì gba adé ọba wọn kúrò lórí rẹ̀, ìwúwo rẹ̀ sì jẹ́ tálẹ́ǹtì wúrà kan, ó sì ní òkúta oníyebíye lára rẹ̀; a sì fi dé Dafidi lórí. Òun sì kó ìkógun ìlú náà ni ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀.
and he takes the crown of their king from off his head, and its weight [is] a talent of gold, and precious stones, and it is on the head of David; and he has brought out the spoil of the city—very much;
31 Ó sì kó àwọn ènìyàn náà tí ó wà nínú rẹ̀, ó sì fi wọ́n sí iṣẹ́ ayùn, àti sí iṣẹ́ nǹkan ìtulẹ̀ tí a fi irin ṣe, àti sí iṣẹ́ àáké irin, ó sì fi wọ́n sí iṣẹ́ bíríkì ṣíṣe, bẹ́ẹ̀ náà ni òun sì ṣe sí gbogbo ìlú àwọn ọmọ Ammoni. Dafidi àti gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn náà sì padà sí Jerusalẹmu.
and he has brought out the people who [are] in it, and sets [them] to the saw, and to cutting instruments of iron, and to axes of iron, and has caused them to pass over into the brick-kiln; and so he does to all the cities of the sons of Ammon; and David turns back, and all the people, to Jerusalem.
