< 2 Samuel 24 >
1 Ìbínú Olúwa sì ru sí Israẹli, ó sì ti Dafidi sí wọn, pé, “Lọ ka iye Israẹli àti Juda!”
And the anger of Jehovah addeth to burn against Israel, and [an adversary] moveth David about them, saying, 'Go, number Israel and Judah.'
2 Ọba sì wí fún Joabu olórí ogun, tí ń bẹ lọ́dọ̀ rẹ̀ pé, “Lọ ní ìsinsin yìí sí gbogbo ẹ̀yà Israẹli láti Dani títí dé Beerṣeba, kí ẹ sì ka iye àwọn ènìyàn, kí èmi lè mọ iye àwọn ènìyàn náà!”
And the king saith unto Joab, head of the host that [is] with him, 'Go to and fro, I pray thee, through all the tribes of Israel, from Dan even unto Beer-Sheba, and inspect ye the people — and I have known the number of the people.'
3 Joabu sì wí fún ọba pé, “Kí Olúwa Ọlọ́run rẹ fi kún iye àwọn ènìyàn náà, iyekíye tí ó wù kí wọn jẹ́, ní ọ̀rọ̀ọ̀rún, ojú olúwa mi ọba yóò sì rí i, ṣùgbọ́n èétiṣe tí olúwa mi ọba fi fẹ́ nǹkan yìí?”
And Joab saith unto the king, 'Yea, Jehovah thy God doth add unto the people, as they are, a hundred times, and the eyes of my lord the king are seeing; and my lord the king, why is he desirous of this thing?'
4 Ṣùgbọ́n ọ̀rọ̀ ọba borí ti Joabu, àti ti àwọn olórí ogun. Joabu àti àwọn olórí ogun sì jáde lọ kúrò níwájú ọba, láti lọ ka àwọn ènìyàn Israẹli.
And the word of the king is severe towards Joab, and against the heads of the force, and Joab goeth out, and the heads of the force, [from] before the king to inspect the people, even Israel;
5 Wọ́n sì kọjá odò Jordani, wọ́n sì pàgọ́ ní Aroeri, ní ìhà apá ọ̀tún ìlú tí ó wà láàrín àfonífojì Gadi, àti sí ìhà Jaseri.
and they pass over the Jordan, and encamp in Aroer, on the right of the city that [is] in the midst of the brook of Gad, and unto Jazer,
6 Wọ́n sì wá sí Gileadi, àti sí ilé Tatimi Hodṣi; wọ́n sì wá sí Dani Jaani àti yíkákiri sí Sidoni.
and they come in to Gilead, and unto the land of Tahtim-Hodshi, and they come in to Dan-Jaan, and round about unto Zidon,
7 Wọ́n sì wá sí ìlú olódi Tire, àti sí gbogbo ìlú àwọn Hifi, àti ti àwọn ará Kenaani, wọ́n sì jáde lọ síhà gúúsù ti Juda, àní sí Beerṣeba.
and they come in to the fortress of Tyre, and all the cities of the Hivite, and of the Canaanite, and go out unto the south of Judah, to Beer-Sheba.
8 Wọ́n sì la gbogbo ilẹ̀ náà já, wọ́n sì wá sí Jerusalẹmu ní òpin oṣù kẹsànán àti ogúnjọ́.
And they go to and fro through all the land, and come in at the end of nine months and twenty days to Jerusalem,
9 Joabu sì fi iye tí àwọn ènìyàn náà jásí lé ọba lọ́wọ́. Ó sì jẹ́ ogójì ọ̀kẹ́ ọkùnrin alágbára ní Israẹli, àwọn onídà, àwọn ọkùnrin Juda sì jẹ́ ọ̀kẹ́ mẹ́ẹ̀ẹ́dọ́gbọ̀n ènìyàn.
and Joab giveth the account of the inspection of the people unto the king, and Israel is eight hundred thousand men of valour, drawing sword, and the men of Judah five hundred thousand men.
10 Àyà Dafidi sì gbọgbẹ́ lẹ́yìn ìgbà tí ó ka àwọn ènìyàn náà tán. Dafidi sì wí fún Olúwa pé, “Èmi ṣẹ̀ gidigidi ní èyí tí èmi ṣe, ṣùgbọ́n, èmi bẹ̀ ọ, Olúwa, fi ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ ìránṣẹ́ rẹ jì ní, nítorí pé èmi hùwà aṣiwèrè gidigidi!”
And the heart of David smiteth him, after that he hath numbered the people, and David saith unto Jehovah, 'I have sinned greatly in that which I have done, and now, O Jehovah, cause to pass away, I pray Thee, the iniquity of Thy servant, for I have acted very foolishly.'
11 Dafidi sì dìde ní òwúrọ̀, ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa sì tọ Gadi wòlíì wá, aríran Dafidi wí pé,
And David riseth in the morning, and the word of Jehovah hath been unto Gad the prophet, seer of David, saying,
12 “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 thou hast spoken unto David, Thus said Jehovah: Three — I am lifting up for thee, choose thee one of them, and I do [it] to thee.'
13 Gadi sì tọ Dafidi wá, ó sì bi í léèrè pé, “Kí ìyàn ọdún méje ó tọ̀ ọ́ wá ní ilẹ̀ rẹ bí? Tàbí kí ìwọ máa sá ní oṣù mẹ́ta níwájú àwọn ọ̀tá rẹ, nígbà tí wọn ó máa lé ọ? Tàbí kí ààrùn ìparun ọjọ́ mẹ́ta ó wá sí ilẹ̀ rẹ? Rò ó nísinsin yìí, kí o sì mọ èsì tí èmi ó mú padà tọ ẹni tí ó rán mi.”
And Gad cometh in unto David, and declareth to him, and saith to him, 'Do seven years of famine come in to thee in thy land? or three months art thou fleeing before thine adversary — and he pursuing thee? or are three days' pestilence in thy land? now, know and see what word I take back to Him sending me.'
14 Dafidi sì wí fún Gadi pé, “Ìyọnu ńlá bá mi. Jẹ́ kí a fi ara wa lé Olúwa ní ọwọ́; nítorí pé àánú rẹ̀ pọ̀; kí ó má sì ṣe fi mí lé ènìyàn ní ọwọ́.”
And David saith unto Gad, 'I have great distress, let us fall, I pray thee, into the hand of Jehovah, for many [are] His mercies, and into the hand of man let me not fall.'
15 Olúwa sì rán ààrùn ìparun sí Israẹli láti òwúrọ̀ títí dé àkókò tí a dá, ẹgbẹ̀rún ní ọ̀nà àádọ́rin ènìyàn sì kú nínú àwọn ènìyàn náà láti Dani títí fi dé Beerṣeba.
And Jehovah giveth a pestilence on Israel from the morning even unto the time appointed, and there die of the people, from Dan even unto Beer-Sheba, seventy thousand men,
16 Nígbà tí angẹli náà sì nawọ́ rẹ̀ sí Jerusalẹmu láti pa á run, Olúwa sì káàánú nítorí ibi náà, ó sì sọ fún angẹli tí ń pa àwọn ènìyàn náà run pé, “Ó tó, dá ọwọ́ rẹ dúró wàyí!” Angẹli Olúwa náà sì wà níbi ìpakà Arauna ará Jebusi.
and the messenger putteth forth his hand to Jerusalem to destroy it, and Jehovah repenteth concerning the evil, and saith to the messenger who is destroying among the people, 'Enough, now, cease thy hand;' and the messenger of Jehovah was near the threshing-floor of Araunah the Jebusite.
17 Dafidi sì wí fún Olúwa nígbà tí ó rí angẹli tí ń kọlu àwọn ènìyàn pé, “Wò ó, èmi ti ṣẹ̀, èmi sì ti hùwà búburú ṣùgbọ́n àwọn àgùntàn wọ̀nyí, kín ni wọ́n ha ṣe? Jẹ́ kí ọwọ́ rẹ, èmi bẹ̀ ọ́, kí ó wà lára mi àti ìdílé baba mi.”
And David speaketh unto Jehovah, when he seeth the messenger who is smiting among the people, and saith, 'Lo, I have sinned, yea, I have done perversely; and these — the flock — what have they done? Let, I pray Thee, Thy hand be on me, and on the house of my father.'
18 Gadi sì tọ Dafidi wá ní ọjọ́ náà, ó sì wí fún un pé, “Gòkè, tẹ́ pẹpẹ kan fún Olúwa lórí ilẹ̀ ìpakà Arauna ará Jebusi.”
And Gad cometh in unto David on that day, and saith to him, 'Go up, raise to Jehovah an altar in the threshing-floor of Araunah the Jebusite;'
19 Gẹ́gẹ́ bí ọ̀rọ̀ Gadi, Dafidi sì gòkè lọ bí Olúwa ti pa á ní àṣẹ.
and David goeth up, according to the word of Gad, as Jehovah commanded.
20 Arauna sì wò, ó sì rí ọba àti àwọn ìránṣẹ́ rẹ̀ ń bọ̀ wá lọ́dọ̀ rẹ̀, Arauna sì jáde, ó sì wólẹ̀ níwájú ọba ó sì dojú rẹ̀ bolẹ̀.
And Araunah looketh, and seeth the king and his servants passing over unto him, and Araunah goeth out and boweth himself to the king — his face to the earth.
21 Arauna sì wí pé, “Nítorí kín ni olúwa mi ọba ṣe tọ ìránṣẹ́ rẹ̀ wá?” Dafidi sì dáhùn pé, “Láti ra ibi ìpakà rẹ lọ́wọ́ rẹ, láti tẹ́ pẹpẹ kan fún Olúwa, kí ààrùn ìparun lè dá lára àwọn ènìyàn náà.”
And Araunah saith, 'Wherefore hath my lord the king come unto his servant?' and David saith, 'To buy from thee the threshing-floor, to build an altar to Jehovah, and the plague is restrained from the people.'
22 Arauna sì wí fún Dafidi pé, “Jẹ́ kí olúwa mi ọba ó mú èyí tí ó dára lójú rẹ̀, kí o sì fi í rú ẹbọ, wò ó, màlúù nìyìí láti fi ṣe ẹbọ sísun, àti ohun èlò ìpakà, àti ohun èlò mìíràn ti màlúù fún igi.
And Araunah saith unto David, 'Let my lord the king take and cause to ascend that which is good in his eyes; see, the oxen for a burnt-offering, and the threshing instruments, and the instruments of the oxen, for wood;'
23 Gbogbo nǹkan wọ̀nyí ni Arauna fi fún ọba, bí ọba.” Arauna sì wí fún ọba pé, “Kí Olúwa Ọlọ́run rẹ ó gba ọrẹ rẹ.”
the whole hath Araunah given, [as] a king to a king; and Araunah saith unto the king, 'Jehovah thy God doth accept thee.'
24 Ọba sì wí fún Arauna pé, “Bẹ́ẹ̀ kọ́; ṣùgbọ́n èmi ó rà á ní iye kan lọ́wọ́ rẹ, bí ó ti wù kí ó ṣe; bẹ́ẹ̀ ni èmi kì yóò fi èyí tí èmi kò náwó fún, rú ẹbọ sísun sí Olúwa Ọlọ́run mi.” Dafidi sì ra ibi ìpakà náà, àti àwọn màlúù náà ní àádọ́ta ṣékélì fàdákà.
And the king saith unto Araunah, 'Nay, for I do surely buy from thee for a price, and I do not cause to ascend to Jehovah my God burnt-offerings for nought;' and David buyeth the threshing-floor and the oxen for fifty shekels of silver,
25 Dafidi sì tẹ́ pẹpẹ kan níbẹ̀ sí Olúwa, ó sì rú ẹbọ sísun àti ti ìlàjà. Olúwa sì gbọ́ ẹ̀bẹ̀ fún ilẹ̀ náà, ààrùn náà sì dá kúrò ní Israẹli.
and David buildeth there an altar to Jehovah, and causeth to ascend burnt-offerings and peace-offerings, and Jehovah is entreated for the land, and the plague is restrained from Israel.
