< 2 Samuel 11 >

1 Now in the spring, at the time when kings go out to war, David sent Joab and his servants and all Israel with him; and they made waste the land of the children of Ammon, and took up their position before Rabbah, shutting it in. But David was still at Jerusalem.
Yac tok ah, ke pacl sak uh mutawauk in srun tukun pacl in mihsrisr, ac tokosra uh wacna som nu ke mweun, David el supwalla Joab ac un mwet mweun lun Israel wi mwet kol lalos. Elos kutangla mwet Ammon, ac sruokya siti Rabbah. A David el mutana Jerusalem.
2 Now one evening, David got up from his bed, and while he was walking on the roof of the king's house, he saw from there a woman bathing; and the woman was very beautiful.
Sie len ah ke tafun len tok, David el tukakek liki pacl in mongla lal, ac som nu ke sawalsrisr se lucng ke lohm sin tokosra. Ke el forfor we, el liye sie mutan yihyih in lohm sel, ac mutan sac arulana kato.
3 And David sent to get knowledge who the woman was. And one said, Is this not Bath-sheba, the daughter of Eliam and wife of Uriah the Hittite?
David el supwala mwet se in siyuk lah su mutan sac, na fwackyang nu sel, “El pa Bathsheba, acn natul Eliam ac mutan kial Uriah mwet Hit.”
4 And David sent and took her; and she came to him, and he took her to his bed: (for she had been made clean; ) then she went back to her house.
Na David el supwala kutu mwet in usalu. Elos usalu nu yorol, na David el ona yorol. (Mutan sac tufahna aksafyela aknasnas lal ke malem.) Na el folokla nu lohm sel.
5 And the woman became with child; and she sent word to David that she was with child.
Tok kutu el konauk lac el pitutu, ac sapla fahk nu sel David.
6 And David sent to Joab saying, Send Uriah the Hittite to me. And Joab sent Uriah to David.
Na David el supwala kas nu sel Joab, “Supwalma Uriah mwet Hit nu yuruk.” Ouinge Joab el supwalla nu yorol David.
7 And when Uriah came to him, David put questions to him about how Joab and the people were, and how the war was going.
Ke Uriah el sun acn we, David el siyuk sel lah Joab ac mwet mweun lal ah fuka, oayapa fuka mweun ah.
8 And David said to Uriah, Go down to your house and let your feet be washed. And Uriah went away from the king's house, and an offering from the king was sent after him.
Na el fahk nu sel Uriah, “Fahla mongla lohm sum ah.” Na Uriah el som ac David el supwala pac sie mwe lung nu lohm sel ah.
9 But Uriah took his rest at the door of the king's house, with all the servants of his lord, and did not go down to his house.
Tusruktu Uriah el tiana som nu lohm sel ah. El motullana ke mutunpot nu ke lohm sin tokosra yurin mwet topang lun tokosra.
10 And when word was given to David that Uriah had not gone down to his house, David said to Uriah, Have you not come from a journey? why did you not go down to your house?
Ke David el lohng lah Uriah el tiana som nu lohm sel ah, el siyuk sel, “Kom tufahna foloko tukun pacl loes kom wanginla, ac efu ku kom tia som nu lohm sum ah?”
11 And Uriah said to David, Israel and Judah with the ark are living in tents, and my lord Joab and the other servants of my lord are sleeping in the open field; and am I to go to my house and take food and drink, and go to bed with my wife? By the living Lord, and by the life of your soul, I will not do such a thing.
Na Uriah el fahk, “Mwet Israel ac Judah elos oasr ke nien mweun, ac Tuptup in Wuleang oasr pac yorolos. Joab, captain luk, ac mwet kol nukewa su welul elos muta ke iwen aktuktuk e yen mwesis. Na fuka tuh ngan som nu lohm sik ac mongo, nim, ac motul yurin mutan kiuk ah? Nga fulahk ke ma mutal nukewa lah nga tia ku in oru ouingan!”
12 And David said to Uriah, Be here today, and after that I will let you go. So Uriah was in Jerusalem that day and the day after.
Na David el fahk, “Muta inge misenge, ac lutu nga ac fah folokinkomla.” Ouinge Uriah el muta Jerusalem ke len sac ac ke len se tok ah.
13 And when David sent for him, he took meat and drink with him, and David made him the worse for drink: and when evening came, he went to rest on his bed with the servants of his lord, but he did not go down to his house.
David el solal elan welul mongo in eku, ac oru el sruhila. Tusruktu Uriah el tia pac som nu lohm sel fong sac, a el motulla fin kaot lal ah yurin mwet topang lun tokosra.
14 Now in the morning, David gave Uriah a letter to take to Joab.
Lotutang in len tok ah, David el simusla leta se nu sel Joab, ac sang Uriah el us.
15 And in the letter he said, Take care to put Uriah in the very front of the line, where the fighting is most violent, and go back from him, so that he may be overcome and put to death.
El sim ouinge: “Likilya Uriah ke tak soko emeet an, yen ma upa mweun we ah, na foloki lukel in mau anwuki el.”
16 So while Joab was watching the town, he put Uriah in the place where it was clear to him the best fighters were.
Ouinge ke Joab el raunela siti sac, el supwalla Uriah nu yen se el etu lah mwet na fokoko inmasrlon mwet lokoalok lalos ac mweun we.
17 And the men of the town went out and had a fight with Joab: and a number of David's men came to their death in the fight, and with them Uriah the Hittite.
Un mwet mweun uh illa liki siti uh ac mweuni mwet lal Joab. Kutu sin mwet mweun fulat lal David ah anwuki, ac Uriah pa sie.
18 Then Joab sent David news of everything which had taken place in the war:
Na Joab el supwala kas nu yorol David in fahk ke luman mweun sac,
19 And he gave orders to the man who took the news, saying, After you have given the king all the news about the war,
ac el fahk nu sin mwet se ma us kas sac, “Tukun kom srumun ke mweun uh nu sel tokosra,
20 If the king is angry and says, Why did you go so near the town for the fight? was it not certain that their archers would be on the wall?
sahp el ku in kasrkusrak ac siyuk sum, ‘Efu komtal ku som arulana fototo nu ke siti uh in mweunelos? Mea, komtal nikin lah elos ac pisrki komtal in pot ah me?
21 Who put Abimelech, the son of Jerubbaal, to death? did not a woman send a great stone down on him from the wall, putting him to death at Thebez? why did you go so near the wall? Then say to him, Your servant Uriah the Hittite is among the dead.
Mea, komtal mulkunla ke luman misa lal Abimelech, wen natul Gideon? Ma sac orek in acn Thebez, ke mutan se sisya eot in ilil se fin pot ah twe unilya. Na pa efu ku komtal som arulana apkuran nu ke pot ah?’ Tokosra el fin siyuk ma inge sum, kom fah fahk nu sel, ‘Uriah, sie sin captain lom ah, wi pac anwuki!’”
22 So the man went, and came to David, and gave him all the news which Joab had sent him to give; then David was angry with Joab and said, Why did you go so near the town for the fight? was it not certain that their archers would be on the wall? who put Abimelech, the son of Jerubbaal, to death? did not a woman send a great stone down on him from the wall, putting him to death at Thebez? why did you go so near the wall?
Ouinge mwet utuk kas sac som nu yorol David ac fahk ma nukewa Joab el sapkin elan tuh fahk ah.
23 And the man said to David, Truly the men got the better of us, and came out against us into the open country, but we sent them back to the very doors of the town.
El fahk, “Mwet lokoalok lasr ah tuh ku liki kut na. Elos illa liki siti ah, ac mweuni kut yen turangang, tusruk kut ukwalosyak nwe ke mutunpot in siti ah.
24 And the archers sent their arrows at your servants from the wall, and some of the king's servants are dead, and among them is your servant Uriah the Hittite.
Na elos pisrik kut ke pot uh me, ac kutu sin captain lun mwet mweun lun tokosra elos anwuki. Uriah, sie sin captain lom an, el wi pac anwuki.”
25 Then David said to the man, Go and say to Joab, Do not let this be a grief to you; for one man may come to his death by the sword like another: put up an even stronger fight against the town, and take it: and do you put heart into him.
David el fahk nu sin mwet utuk kas sac, “Sang kas in akkeyal Joab, ac fahk nu sel elan tia toasrla, mweyen kut tia ku in etu lah su ac misa ke mweun uh. Fahk nu sel elan sifilpa mweuni siti sac ku liki meet, ac eisla.”
26 And when the wife of Uriah had news that her husband was dead, she gave herself up to weeping for him.
Ke Bathsheba el lohngak lah mukul tumal ah misa, el arulana tung kacl.
27 And when the days of weeping were past, David sent for her, and took her into his house, and she became his wife and gave him a son. But the Lord was not pleased with the thing David had done.
Ke safla pacl in asor lal ah, David el sap in utuku Bathsheba nu in lohm sin tokosra. El payukyak sel, ac Bathsheba el oswela wen se nu sel. Tusruktu, LEUM GOD El tia insewowo ke ma David el oru inge.
