1 H addaba Shayddaan baa ku kacay reer binu Israa'iil oo wuxuu Daa'uud ku dhaqaajiyey inuu reer binu Israa'iil tiriyo.

And Satan stood up against Israel, and moved David to number Israel.

2 M arkaasaa Daa'uud ku yidhi Yoo'aab iyo amiirradii, Taga oo reer binu Israa'iil soo tiriya tan iyo Bi'ir Shebac iyo ilaa Daan, oo war ii keena si aan u ogaado dadka tiradiisa.

And David said to Joab and to the princes of the people, Go, number Israel from Beer-sheba even to Dan; and bring me word, that I may know the sum of them.

3 M arkaasaa Yoo'aab yidhi, Rabbigu dadkiisa ha ka dhigo boqol jeer in ka sii badan inta ay haatan yihiin, laakiinse boqorow sayidkaygiiyow, iyagu kulligood sow ma aha addoommadaada? Maxaadse waxan u doonaysaa, sayidkaygiiyow? Oo maxaadse reer binu Israa'iil sabab ay ku dembaabaan ugu noqonaysaa?

And Joab said, Jehovah make his people a hundred times as many as they are: but, my lord the king, are they not all my lord's servants? why doth my lord require this thing? why will he be a cause of guilt unto Israel?

4 H abase yeeshee boqorka hadalkiisii waa ka adkaaday hadalkii Yoo'aab. Haddaba sidaas daraaddeed Yoo'aab wuu tegey, oo wuxuu dhex maray reer binu Israa'iil oo dhan, dabadeedna Yeruusaalem buu yimid.

Nevertheless the king's word prevailed against Joab. Wherefore Joab departed, and went throughout all Israel, and came to Jerusalem.

5 M arkaasaa Yoo'aab Daa'uud siiyey tiradii dadka, oo reer binu Israa'iil oo dhammu waxay ahaayeen kun kun iyo boqol kun oo nin oo seefqaad ah, oo reer Yahuudahna waxay ahaayeen afar boqol iyo toddobaatan kun oo nin oo seefqaad ah.

And Joab gave up the sum of the numbering of the people unto David. And all they of Israel were a thousand thousand and a hundred thousand men that drew sword: and Judah was four hundred threescore and ten thousand men that drew sword.

6 L aakiinse isagu sooma uu tirin reer Laawi iyo reer Benyaamiin, maxaa yeelay, Yoo'aab waa karaahiyeystay boqorka hadalkiisii.

But Levi and Benjamin counted he not among them; for the king's word was abominable to Joab.

7 H addaba taas ayaa Ilaah ugu cadhooday, markaasuu laayay reer binu Israa'iil.

And God was displeased with this thing; therefore he smote Israel.

8 M arkaasaa Daa'uud Ilaah ku yidhi, Waxaan sameeyey aad baan ugu dembaabay, haddaba waan ku baryayaaye, iga fogee dembigayga anoo addoonkaaga ah, waayo, nacasnimo weyn baan sameeyey.

And David said unto God, I have sinned greatly, in that I have done this thing: but now, put away, I beseech thee, the iniquity of thy servant; for I have done very foolishly.

9 M arkaasaa Rabbigu la hadlay Gaad oo ahaa Daa'uud waxarkihiisa, oo wuxuu yidhi,

And Jehovah spake unto Gad, David's seer, saying,

10 T ag oo Daa'uud la hadal oo waxaad ku tidhaahdaa, Rabbigu wuxuu kugu leeyahay, Saddexdan waxyaalood baan ku siinayaa, ee ka dooro mid aan kugu sameeyo.

Go and speak unto David, saying, Thus saith Jehovah, I offer thee three things: choose thee one of them, that I may do it unto thee.

11 S idaas daraaddeed Gaad baa Daa'uud u yimid oo ku yidhi, Rabbigu wuxuu leeyahay, Midkaad doonaysid dooro,

So Gad came to David, and said unto him, Thus saith Jehovah, Take which thou wilt:

12 s addex sannadood oo abaar ah, ama saddex bilood oo aad ku baabba'did cadaawayaashaada hortooda iyadoo seefta cadaawayaashaadu ay ku gaadhayso, amase haddii kale saddex maalmood oo seefta Rabbigu iyadoo belaayo ah ay dalka dhex marayso, oo ay malaa'igtii Rabbiga dadka baabbi'inayso kulli dalka reer binu Israa'iil oo dhan. Haddaba bal ka fiirso jawaabta aan u celiyo kii i soo diray.

either three years of famine; or three months to be consumed before thy foes, while the sword of thine enemies overtaketh thee; or else three days the sword of Jehovah, even pestilence in the land, and the angel of Jehovah destroying throughout all the borders of Israel. Now therefore consider what answer I shall return to him that sent me.

13 M arkaasaa Daa'uud wuxuu Gaad ku yidhi, Cidhiidhi weyn baan ku jiraa, Rabbiga gacantiisa aan ku dhaco, waayo, naxariistiisu waa badan tahay, laakiinse yaanan dad gacantiis ku dhicin.

And David said unto Gad, I am in a great strait: let me fall, I pray, into the hand of Jehovah; for very great are his mercies: and let me not fall into the hand of man.

14 S aas aawadeed Rabbigu belaayo ayuu ku soo dejiyey reer binu Israa'iil, oo waxaa reer binu Israa'iil ka dhintay toddobaatan kun oo nin.

So Jehovah sent a pestilence upon Israel; and there fell of Israel seventy thousand men.

15 O o haddana Rabbigu wuxuu Yeruusaalem u soo diray malag wax baabbi'iya, oo markuu u dhowaaday inuu baabbi'iyo ayaa Rabbigu fiiriyey, oo belaayadii ka qoomamooday, oo wuxuu malaggii wax baabbi'inayay ku yidhi, Bes weeye, haddaba gacanta soo celi. Oo malaggii Rabbigu wuxuu ag joogay meeshii hadhuudhka lagu tumi jiray oo uu Aarnaankii reer Yebuus lahaa.

And God sent an angel unto Jerusalem to destroy it: and as he was about to destroy, Jehovah beheld, and he repented him of the evil, and said to the destroying angel, It is enough; now stay thy hand. And the angel of Jehovah was standing by the threshing-floor of Ornan the Jebusite.

16 M arkaasaa Daa'uud indhihii kor u taagay oo wuxuu arkay malaggii Rabbiga oo taagan dhulka iyo samada dhexdooda oo gacanta ku haysta seef gal la' oo Yeruusaalem ku kor fidsan. Markaasay Daa'uud iyo odayaashiiba, iyagoo dhar joonyad ah qaba, wejiga dhulka saareen.

And David lifted up his eyes, and saw the angel of Jehovah standing between earth and heaven, having a drawn sword in his hand stretched out over Jerusalem. Then David and the elders, clothed in sackcloth, fell upon their faces.

17 M arkaasaa Daa'uud wuxuu Ilaah ku yidhi, Kii amray in dadka la soo tiriyo sow aniga ma aha? Kii dembaabay oo waxa aad u xun sameeyey waa aniga, laakiinse idahanu maxay sameeyeen? Haddaba Rabbiyow Ilaahayow, waan ku baryayaaye, gacantaadu ha ka gees noqoto aniga iyo reerka aabbahay, laakiinse dadkaaga yaanay ka gees noqon oo aanay belaayo ku dhicin.

And David said unto God, Is it not I that commanded the people to be numbered? even I it is that have sinned and done very wickedly; but these sheep, what have they done? let thy hand, I pray thee, O Jehovah my God, be against me, and against my father's house; but not against thy people, that they should be plagued.

18 M arkaasaa malaggii Rabbigu Gaad ku amray inuu Daa'uud ku yidhaahdo, Tag oo Rabbiga meel allabari ugu dhis meeshii wax lagu tumi jiray ee Aarnaankii reer Yebuus leeyahay.

Then the angel of Jehovah commanded Gad to say to David, that David should go up, and rear an altar unto Jehovah in the threshing-floor of Ornan the Jebusite.

19 O o Daa'uud baa ku tegey wixii uu Gaad yidhi, oo uu ku hadlay magicii Rabbiga.

And David went up at the saying of Gad, which he spake in the name of Jehovah.

20 M arkaasaa Aarnaan soo jeestay oo arkay malaggii, oo afartiisii wiil oo isaga la joogayna way dhuunteen. Haddaba Aarnaan wuxuu tumayay sarreen.

And Ornan turned back, and saw the angel; and his four sons that were with him hid themselves. Now Ornan was threshing wheat.

21 O o markii Daa'uud u yimid Aarnaan ayaa Aarnaan arkay Daa'uud, oo intuu meeshii ka baxay ayuu u sujuuday Daa'uud, wejigana dhulkuu saaray.

And as David came to Ornan, Ornan looked and saw David, and went out of the threshing-floor, and bowed himself to David with his face to the ground.

22 M arkaasaa Daa'uud wuxuu Aarnaan ku yidhi, Meeshan wax lagu tumo i sii, aan meel allabari Rabbiga uga dhisee. Waxaad igu siinaysaa qiima buuxa in belaayadu ay dadka ka joogsato.

Then David said to Ornan, Give me the place of this threshing-floor, that I may build thereon an altar unto Jehovah: for the full price shalt thou give it me, that the plague may be stayed from the people.

23 M arkaasaa Aarnaan wuxuu Daa'uud ku yidhi, Boqorow sayidkaygiiyow, qaado oo samee wixii kula wanaagsan, bal eeg, dibida waxaan kuu siinayaa qurbaanno la gubo aawadiis, oo alaabta wax lagu tumona qoryo aawadood, sarreenkana qurbaan aawadiis, anigu kulli waan ku wada siinayaa.

And Ornan said unto David, Take it to thee, and let my lord the king do that which is good in his eyes: lo, I give thee the oxen for burnt-offerings, and the threshing instruments for wood, and the wheat for the meal-offering; I give it all.

24 M arkaasaa Boqor Daa'uud wuxuu Aarnaan ku yidhi, Maya, laakiinse sida runta ah qiima buuxa ayaan kaaga iibsanayaa, waayo, Rabbiga u qaadi maayo wax aad adigu leedahay, oo qurbaan la gubo oo aanan waxba ka bixin anigu Ilaah ugu bixin maayo.

And king David said to Ornan, Nay; but I will verily buy it for the full price: for I will not take that which is thine for Jehovah, nor offer a burnt-offering without cost.

25 H addaba Daa'uud wuxuu Aarnaan meeshii ka siiyey dahab miisaankiisu yahay lix boqol oo sheqel.

So David gave to Ornan for the place six hundred shekels of gold by weight.

26 M arkaasaa Daa'uud halkaas Rabbiga uga dhisay meel allabari, oo wuxuu u bixiyey qurbaanno la gubo iyo qurbaanno nabaadiino, oo Rabbiguu baryay, oo isna wuxuu isagii samada ugaga jawaabay dab ku soo kor dhacay meeshii qurbaanka la gubo.

And David built there an altar unto Jehovah, and offered burnt-offerings and peace-offerings, and called upon Jehovah; and he answered him from heaven by fire upon the altar of burnt-offering.

27 M arkaasaa Rabbigu amray malaggii, isna seeftiisuu ku celiyey galkeedii.

And Jehovah commanded the angel; and he put up his sword again into the sheath thereof.

28 O o isla markaasba Daa'uud markuu arkay in Rabbigu isaga uga jawaabay meeshii wax lagu tumi jiray oo uu lahaa Aarnaan oo ahaa reer Yebuus ayuu halkaas ku allabaryay.

At that time, when David saw that Jehovah had answered him in the threshing-floor of Ornan the Jebusite, then he sacrificed there.

29 W aayo, taambuuggii Rabbiga ee Muuse cidlada ku dhex sameeyey iyo meeshii qurbaanka la guboba markaas waxay dhex yiilleen meesha sare ee Gibecoon ku taal.

For the tabernacle of Jehovah, which Moses made in the wilderness, and the altar of burnt-offering, were at that time in the high place at Gibeon.

30 L aakiinse Daa'uud meeshaas ma uu hor tegi karin inuu Ilaah wax soo weyddiisto, maxaa yeelay, wuxuu ka baqayay seeftii malagga Rabbiga.

But David could not go before it to inquire of God; for he was afraid because of the sword of the angel of Jehovah.
