1 Chronicles 21
1 Now Satan, designing evil against Israel, put into David's mind the impulse to take the number of Israel.
Ary Satana nitsangana hampidi-doza tamin’ ny Isiraely ka nanome saina an’ i Davida hanisa ny Isiraely.
2 And David said to Joab and the captains of the people, Now let all Israel, from Beer-sheba to Dan, be numbered; and give me word so that I may be certain of their number.
Dia hoy Davida tamin’ i Joaba sy tamin’ ireo lehiben’ ny vahoaka: Mandehana, isao ny Isiraely hatrany Beri-sheba ka hatrany Dana; ary ento atỳ amiko ny isany mba ho fantatro.
3 And Joab said, May the Lord make his people a hundred times more in number than they are; but, my lord king, are they not all my lord's servants? why would my lord have this done? why will he become a cause of sin to Israel?
Fa hoy Joaba: Jehovah anie hampitombo ny olony ho injato toy izao na firy na firy izy; fa moa tsy mpanompon’ ny tompoko izy rehetra, ry mpanjaka tompoko? Koa inona indray no itadiavan’ ny tompoko izany zavatra izany? Nahoana no dia hampahadiso ny Isiraely?
4 But the king's word was stronger than Joab's. So Joab went out and went through all Israel and came to Jerusalem.
Nefa tsy azon’ i Joaba nolavina ny tenin’ ny mpanjaka; ka dia niainga izy ka nitety ny Isiraely rehetra; dia tonga tany Jerosalema indray izy.
5 And Joab gave David the number of all the people; all the men of Israel, able to take up arms, were one million, one hundred thousand men; and those of Judah were four hundred and seventy thousand men, able to take up arms.
Ary natolotr’ i Joaba an’ i Davida ny isan’ ny olona voalamina, ka nisy iray hetsy sy iray tapitrisa ny lehilahy mahatan-tsabatra teo amin’ ny Isiraely; ary fito alina sy efatra hetsy ny lehilahy mahatan-tsabatra teo amin’ ny Joda.
6 But Levi and Benjamin were not numbered among them, for Joab was disgusted with the king's order.
Fa ny Levy sy ny Benjamina tsy mba nalaminy, satria fahavetavetana tamin’ i Joaba ny tenin’ ny mpanjaka.
7 And God was not pleased with this thing; so he sent punishment on Israel.
Ary tsy sitrak’ Andriamanitra izany zavatra izany; ka dia namely ny Isiraely Izy.
8 Then David said to God, Great has been my sin in doing this; but now, be pleased to take away the sin of your servant, for I have done very foolishly.
Ary hoy Davida tamin’ Andriamanitra; Efa nanota indrindra aho tamin’ izao nataoko izao; koa ankehitriny, mifona aminao aho, esory ny heloky ny mpanomponao, fa efa nanao fahadalana lehibe tokoa aho.
9 Then the word of the Lord came to Gad, David's seer, saying,
Ary hoy Jehovah tamin’ i Gada mpahitan’ i Davida:
10 Go and say to David, The Lord says, Three things are offered to you: say which of them you will have, so that I may do it to you.
Mandehana, ka lazao amin’ i Davida hoe: Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah: Zavatra telo loha no apetrako eto anoloanao, koa fidio izay iray hataoko aminao.
11 So Gad came to David and said to him, The Lord says, Take whichever you will:
Ary Gada nankany amin’ i Davida ka nanao taminy hoe: Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah: Mifidia:
12 Three years when there will not be enough food; or three months of war, when you will go in flight before your haters, being in great danger of the sword; or three days of the sword of the Lord, disease in the land, and the angel of the Lord taking destruction through all the land of Israel. Now give thought to the answer I am to take back to him who sent me.
Mosary telo taona va? Sa fandringanana eo alohan’ ny fahavalonao telo volana, raha tratry ny sabatry ny fahavalonao ianao? Sa ny sabatr’ i Jehovah, dia areti-mandringana, no hamely ny tany hateloana, ka Ilay Anjelin’ i Jehovah handringana eran’ ny tanin’ ny Isiraely rehetra? Koa hevero tsara izay valiny ho entiko miverina any amin’ Izay naniraka ahy.
13 And David said to Gad, This is a hard decision for me to make: let me come into the hands of the Lord, for great are his mercies: let me not come into the hands of men.
Ary hoy Davida tamin’ i Gada: Indrisy! poritra loatra aho! nefa aleoko ho azon’ ny tànan’ i Jehovah, fa lehibe ny famindram-pony toy izay ho azon’ izay tànan’ olona.
14 So the Lord sent disease on Israel, causing the death of seventy thousand men.
Dia nasian’ i Jehovah areti-mandringana ny Isiraely ka nahafatesana fito alina izy.
15 And God sent an angel to Jerusalem for its destruction: and when he was about to do so, the Lord saw, and had regret for the evil, and said to the angel of destruction, It is enough; do no more. Now the angel of the Lord was by the grain-floor of Ornan the Jebusite.
Ary Andriamanitra naniraka Anjely hankany Jerosalema handrava azy; ary raha ilay mbola nandrava iny Izy, dia nijery Jehovah ka nanenina ny amin’ ny loza ka nanao tamin’ Ilay Anjely nandrava hoe: Aoka izay! Atsaharo ny tananao ankehitriny. Ary Ilay Anjelin’ i Jehovah nitsangana teo anilan’ ny famoloan’ i Araona Jebosita.
16 And David, lifting up his eyes, saw the angel of the Lord there between earth and heaven, with an uncovered sword in his hand stretched out over Jerusalem. Then David and the responsible men, clothed in haircloth, went down on their faces.
Ary Davida nanopy ny masony ka nahita Ilay Anjelin’ i Jehovah nitsangana teo anelanelan’ ny tany sy ny lanitra sady nitana sabatra voatsoaka teny an-tanany, izay natondrony manandrify an’ i Jerosalema. Dia niankohoka Davida sy ny loholon’ ny Isiraely, izay efa samy nitafy lamba fisaonana.
17 And David said to God, Was it not I who gave the order for the people to be numbered? It is I who have done the sin and the great wrong; but these are only sheep; what have they done? let your hand, O Lord God, be lifted up against me and against my family, but not against your people to send disease on them.
Ary hoy Davida tamin’ Andriamanitra: Tsy izaho va no nandidy hanisa ny vahoaka? Izaho no nanota sy nanao ratsy tokoa; fa ireo ondry ireo kosa, inona moa no mba nataony? Eny, Jehovah Andriamanitro ô, mifona aminao re aho, aoka ny tananao hamely ahy sy ny mpianakavin’ ny raiko, fa aza ny olonao no asianao amin’ ny areti-mandringana.
18 Then the angel of the Lord gave orders to Gad to say to David that he was to go and put up an altar to the Lord on the grain-floor of Ornan the Jebusite.
Ary Gada nasain’ Ilay Anjelin’ i Jehovah hilaza amin’ i Davida mba hiakatra hanangana alitara ho an’ i Jehovah ao amin’ ny famoloan’ i Araona Jebosita.
19 And David went up, as Gad had said in the name of the Lord.
Koa dia niakatra Davida araka ny tenin’ i Gada, izay nolazainy tamin’ ny anaran’ i Jehovah.
20 And Ornan, turning back, saw the angel, and his four sons who were with him went to a secret place. Now Ornan was crushing his grain.
Ary Araona niherika ka nahita Ilay Anjely; ary ny zanany efa-dahy izay teo aminy dia niery. Ary Araona nively vary tao tamin’ izay.
21 And when David came, Ornan, looking, saw him, and came out from the grain-floor and went down on his face to the earth before him.
Ary nony tonga teo amin’ i Araona Davida, dia nijery Araona ka nahita an’ i Davida, ary dia niala avy teo amin’ ny famoloana izy ka niankohoka tamin’ ny tany teo anatrehan’ i Davida.
22 Then David said to Ornan, Give me the place where this grain-floor is, so that I may put up an altar here to the Lord: let me have it for its full price; so that this disease may be stopped among the people.
Ary hoy Davida tamin’ i Araona: Mba omeo ahy amin’ izay tokom-bidiny ity famoloana ity hanorenako alitara ho an’ i Jehovah; omeo ahy izy, mba hitsaharan’ ny areti-mandringana tsy hamely ny vahoaka.
23 And Ornan said to David, Take it, and let my lord the king do what seems right to him. See, I give you the oxen for burned offerings and the grain-cleaning instruments for fire-wood, and the grain for the meal offering; I give it all.
Fa hoy Araona tamin’ i Davida: Ento ary ho anao, ary aoka ny mpanjaka tompoko hanao izay sitrany; indro, omeko koa ny omby ho fanatitra dorana ary ny fivelezam-bary ho kitay ary ny vary tritika ho fanatitra hohanina; foiko avokoa izy rehetra.
24 And King David said to Ornan, No; I will certainly give you the full price for it, because I will not take for the Lord what is yours, or give a burned offering without payment.
Fa hoy Davida mpanjaka tamin’ i Araona: Tsia, fa hovidiko mihitsy araka izay tokom-bidiny; fa tsy haka izay anao ho an’ i Jehovah aho ary tsy hanatitra fanatitra dorana amin’ izay azoko fotsiny.
25 So David gave Ornan six hundred shekels of gold by weight for the place.
Dia nomen’ i Davida sekely volamena lanjan’ enin-jato Araona ho vidin’ ny tany.
26 And David put up an altar there to the Lord, offering burned offerings and peace-offerings with prayers to the Lord; and he gave him an answer from heaven, sending fire on the altar of burned offering.
Ary Davida nanorina alitara teo ho an’ i Jehovah ka nanatitra fanatitra dorana sy fanati-pihavanana; dia niantso an’ i Jehovah izy ka novaliany tamin’ ny afo avy tany an-danitra, izay latsaka teo amin’ ny alitara fandoroana ny fanatitra dorana.
27 Then the Lord gave orders to the angel, and he put back his sword into its cover.
Ary Jehovah nandidy Ilay Anjely, ka dia nampidiriny tamin’ ny tranony ny sabany.
28 At that time, when David saw that the Lord had given him an answer on the grain-floor of Ornan the Jebusite, he made an offering there.
Tamin’ izany andro izany, nony hitan’ i Davida fa novalian’ i Jehovah teo amin’ ny famoloan’ i Araona Jebosita izy, dia namono zavatra hatao fanatitra teo izy.
29 For the House of the Lord, which Moses had made in the waste land, and the altar of burned offerings, were at that time in the high place at Gibeon.
Fa ny tabernakelin’ i Jehovah izay nataon’ i Mosesy tany an-efitra sy ny alitara fandoroana ny fanatitra dorana kosa dia teo amin’ ny fitoerana avo tao Gibeona fahizay;
30 But David was not able to go before it to get directions from the Lord, so great was his fear of the sword of the angel of the Lord.
nefa Davida tsy nahazo nankeo anoloan’ izany hanontany amin’ Andriamanitra; fa raiki-tahotra izy noho ny sabatr’ Ilay Anjelin’ i Jehovah.
