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

And there standeth up an adversary against Israel, and persuadeth 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 saith unto Joab, and unto the heads of the people, `Go, number Israel from Beer-Sheba even unto Dan, and bring unto me, and I know their number.'

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 saith, `Jehovah doth add to His people as they are a hundred times; are they not, my lord, O king, all of them to my lord for servants? why doth my lord seek this? why is he for a cause of guilt to 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.

And the word of the king severe against Joab, and Joab goeth out, and goeth up and down in all Israel, and cometh in 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 giveth the account of the numbering of the people unto David, and all Israel is a thousand thousand and a hundred thousand, each drawing sword, and Judah four hundred and seventy thousand, each drawing sword.

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

And Levi and Benjamin he hath not numbered in their midst, for the word of the king was abominable with Joab.

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

And it is evil in the eyes of God concerning this thing, and He smiteth 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 saith unto God, `I have sinned exceedingly, in that I have done this thing; and now, cause to pass away, I pray Thee, the iniquity of Thy servant, for I have acted very foolishly.'

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

And Jehovah speaketh unto Gad, seer of David, 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 thou hast spoken unto David, saying, Thus said Jehovah, Three -- I am stretching out unto thee; choose for thee one of these, and I do to thee.'

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

And Gad cometh in unto David, and saith to him, `Thus said Jehovah, Take for thee --

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 for three years -- famine, or three months to be consumed from the face of thine adversaries, even the sword of thine enemies to overtake, or three days the sword of Jehovah, even pestilence in the land, and a messenger of Jehovah destroying in all the border of Israel; and now, see; what word do I return to Him who is sending 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 saith unto Gad, `I am greatly distressed, let me fall, I pray thee, into the hand of Jehovah, for very many His mercies, and into the hand of man let me not fall.'

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.

And Jehovah giveth a pestilence in Israel, and there fall 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 sendeth a messenger to Jerusalem to destroy it, and as he is destroying Jehovah hath seen, and is comforted concerning the evil, and saith to the messenger who destroying, `Enough, now, cease thy hand.' And the messenger of Jehovah is 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 lifteth up his eyes, and seeth the messenger of Jehovah standing between the earth and the heavens, and his sword drawn in his hand, stretched out over Jerusalem, and David falleth, and the elders, covered with sackcloth, on 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 saith unto God, `Did not I -- I say to number the people? Yea, I it who have sinned, and done great evil: and these, the flock, what did they? O Jehovah, my God, let, I pray Thee, Thy hand be on me, and on the house of my father, and not on Thy people -- to 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.

And the messenger of Jehovah spake unto Gad, saying for David, `Surely David doth go up to raise an altar to 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 goeth up by the word of Gad, that 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 turneth back, and seeth the messenger, and his four sons with him, hiding themselves, and Ornan is 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 David cometh in unto Ornan, and Ornan looketh attentively, and seeth David, and goeth out from the threshing-floor, and boweth himself to David -- face to the earth.

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.

And David saith unto Ornan, `Give to me the place of the threshing-floor, and I build in it an altar to Jehovah; for full silver give it to me, and the plague is restrained 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 saith unto David, `Take to thee -- and my lord the king doth 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; the whole I have given.'

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 saith to Ornan, `Nay, for I surely buy for full silver; for I do not lift up that which is thine to Jehovah, so as to offer a burnt-offering without cost.'

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

And David giveth to Ornan for the place shekels of gold weight six hundred;

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 buildeth there an altar to Jehovah, and offereth burnt-offerings and peace-offerings, and calleth unto Jehovah, and He answereth him with fire from the heavens on the altar of the burnt-offering.

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

And Jehovah saith to the messenger, and he turneth back his sword unto its sheath.

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 seeth that Jehovah hath answered him in the threshing-floor of Ornan the Jebusite, then he sacrificeth 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.

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

and David is not able to go before it to seek God, for he hath been afraid because of the sword of the messenger of Jehovah.
