1 Chronicles 21
1 Now Satan rose up against Israel, and he incited David so that he would number Israel.
Satan el tuh lungse elan aklokoalokye mwet Israel, na pa el oru tuh David elan nunkeak elan oakla pisen mwet uh.
2 And David said to Joab and to the leaders of the people: “Go, and number Israel, from Beersheba even to Dan. And bring me the number, so that I may know it.”
David el sapkin nu sel Joab ac mwet pwapa lal saya, “Kowos fahla ac sasla nu in facl Israel nufon, mutawauk e epang me oatula safla eir, ac oakla pisen mwet uh. Nga lungse etu lah elos mwet ekasr nufon.”
3 And Joab responded: “May the Lord increase his people a hundred times more than they are. But, my lord the king, are they not all your servants? Why would my lord seek this thing, which may be imputed as a sin to Israel?”
Na Joab el fahk, “Finsrak LEUM GOD Elan oru tuh mwet Israel in puseni pacl siofok liki pisalos misenge! Leum Fulat, elos nukewa mwet kulansap lom. Na efu ku kom lungsum in oru ma se inge, ac sang mwatan mutunfacl se inge nufon?”
4 But the word of the king prevailed instead. And Joab went away, and he traveled around, through all of Israel. And he returned to Jerusalem.
Tusruktu, nunak lal tokosra ku lukel Joab, pwanang Joab el illa ac fahsr sasla in facl Israel nufon, na el folok nu Jerusalem.
5 And he gave to David the number of those whom he had surveyed. And the entire number of Israel was found to be one million and one hundred thousand men who could draw the sword; but from Judah, there were four hundred and seventy thousand men of war.
El fahkak nu sel Tokosra David pisen mukul nukewa ma fal in wi mweun: oasr sie million siofok tausin mwet Israel, ac mwet angfoko itngoul tausin mwet Judah.
6 But Levi and Benjamin he did not number. For Joab executed the orders of the king unwillingly.
Ke sripen Joab el tiana insese nu ke sap se lal tokosra inge, el tiana oakla mwet in sruf lal Levi ac Benjamin.
7 Then God was displeased with what had been ordered, and so he struck Israel.
God El tia insewowo ke ma orek inge, na pa El sang kai upa nu fin mwet Israel.
8 And David said to God: “I have sinned exceedingly in doing this. I beg you take away the iniquity of your servant. For I have acted unwisely.”
Ac David el fahk nu sin God, “Nga orala ma koluk na yohk se. Nunak munas, sisla koluk luk. Ma na lalfon se pa nga orala.”
9 And the Lord spoke to Gad, the seer of David, saying:
Na LEUM GOD El fahk nu sel Gad, mwet palu lal David,
10 “Go, and speak to David, and tell him: Thus says the Lord: I give to you the option of three things. Choose the one that you will want, and I will do it to you.”
“Fahla fahk nu sel David lah nga fah sang nu sel ke mwe sulela tolu, ac el enenu in sulela sie. Nga ac fah oru ma se ma el ac sulela an.”
11 And when Gad had gone to David, he said to him: “Thus says the Lord: Choose what you will want:
Gad el som ac fahk nu sel David ma LEUM GOD El fahk, na el siyuk sel, “Ma ya kac kom lungse uh?
12 Either three years of famine, or three months for you to flee from your enemies, unable to escape from their sword, or three days for the sword of the Lord and a pestilence to turn within the land, with the Angel of the Lord killing in every part of Israel. Now therefore, see what I should respond to him who sent me.”
In oasr sracl fin facl sum ke yac tolu? Ku kom in kaing liki un mwet mweun lun mwet lokoalok lom ke malem tolu? Ku LEUM GOD Elan mweuni kom ke cutlass natul ac supwama mas upa, ac sie lipufan in use misa nu fin acn Israel nufon ke len tolu? Mea nga ac fahk in topuk LEUM GOD?”
13 And David said to Gad: “There are difficulties pressing upon me from every side. But it is better for me to fall into the hands of the Lord, for his mercies are many, than into the hands of men.”
Na David el fahk nu sel Gad, “Nga arulana fohsak ac nikinyula! Tusruktu nga tia lungse ngan kalyeiyuk sin mwet uh. Lela in LEUM GOD na pa orek kaiyuk nu sesr, tuh El pakoten.”
14 Therefore, the Lord sent a pestilence upon Israel. And there fell from Israel seventy thousand men.
Na LEUM GOD El supwala mas na upa se nu fin mwet Israel, ac mwet itngoul tausin selos misa.
15 Also, he sent an Angel to Jerusalem, so that he might strike it. And while he was striking, the Lord saw and took pity over the magnitude of the harm. And he commanded the Angel who was striking: “It is enough. Now let your hand cease.” And the Angel of the Lord was standing beside the threshing floor of Ornan the Jebusite.
Na El supwala sie lipufan in kunausla acn Jerusalem, tusruktu El sifil ekulla nunak lal ac fahk nu sin lipufan sac, “Tui! Tari fal!” Lipufan sac el tuyak ke acn in kulkul wheat lal Araunah, mwet Jebus.
16 And David, lifting up his eyes, saw the Angel of the Lord, standing between heaven and earth with a drawn sword in his hand, turned toward Jerusalem. And both he and those greater by birth, being clothed in haircloth, fell prone upon the ground.
David el liye lipufan sac ke el tu yen engyeng uh ac el sruok cutlass natul inpaol ac akola in kunausla acn Jerusalem. David ac mwet kol lun mwet Israel elos nokomang nuknuk in eoksra, ac elos srimi nwe ten ac mutalos pusral fin fohk uh.
17 And David said to God: “Am I not the one who ordered that the people be numbered? It is I who sinned; it is I who did evil. This flock, what does it deserve? O Lord my God, I beg you to let your hand be turned against me and against the house of my father. But let not your people be struck down.”
Ac David el pre ac fahk, “O God, nga pa oru ma koluk se inge. Nga pa sapkin in oaoala mwet uh. Mea mwet inge orala? LEUM GOD luk, fal kom in kaiyu ac sou luk, ac fuhlela mwet lom inge.”
18 Then the Angel of the Lord instructed Gad to tell David that he should ascend and build an altar to the Lord God on the threshing floor of Ornan the Jebusite.
Na lipufan lun LEUM GOD el fahk nu sel Gad elan sapkin nu sel David tuh elan som ac etoak sie loang in acn in kulkul wheat lal Araunah.
19 Therefore, David ascended, in accord with the word of Gad, which he had spoken to him in the name of the Lord.
David el akos sap lun LEUM GOD ac som, oana ma Gad el tuh fahk nu sel.
20 Now when Ornan had looked up and seen the Angel, he and his four sons hid themselves. For at that time, he was threshing wheat upon the floor.
Ke nien kulkul wheat ah, Araunah ac wen akosr natul elos muta kulkul wheat. Ke elos liye lipufan sac, wen ekasr ah kaing ac wikla.
21 Then, as David was approaching Ornan, Ornan saw him, and he went out from the threshing floor to meet him. And he reverenced him prone on the ground.
Ke pacl se Araunah el liyalak Tokosra David ke el fahsru ac apkuranme, el som liki nien kulkul wheat uh, ac srimi nwe ten ac mutal pusral infohk uh.
22 And David said to him: “Give this place of your threshing floor to me, so that I may build an altar to the Lord upon it. And you shall accept from me as much money as it is worth, so that the plague may cease from the people.”
David el fahk nu sel, “Kukakunma nien kulkul wheat lom uh, tuh nga in etoak sie loang nu sin LEUM GOD, in tulokinya mas upa se orek inge. Nga lungse molela nufon.”
23 But Ornan said to David: “Take it, and may my lord the king do whatever pleases him. Moreover, I give the oxen also as a holocaust, and the plow for wood, and the wheat for a sacrifice. I will offer all freely.”
Ac Araunah el fahk, “O Tokosra, eis na lom ac orekmakin nu ke enenu lom. Cow mukul pa inge, kom ku in orek mwe kisa firir kac fin loang an, ac ipin sak ke acn in kulkul wheat uh ku in orekmakinyuk mwe etong, oayapa wheat tuh in mwe sang lom. Ma inge kewa nga sot nu sum.”
24 And king David said to him: “By no means shall it be so. Instead, I will give money to you, as much as it is worth. For I must not take it from you, and thereby offer to the Lord holocausts that cost nothing.”
Tusruktu tokosra el topuk, “Mo, nga ac moli nufon ma inge. Nga ac tia kisakin nu sin LEUM GOD ma su ma lom, ma tuku nu sik ke wangin molo.”
25 Therefore, David gave Ornan, for the place, the very just weight of six hundred shekels of gold.
Na el sang ipin gold onfoko nu sel Araunah, molin acn in kulkul wheat sac.
26 And he built an altar to the Lord there. And he offered holocausts and peace offerings, and he called upon the Lord. And he heeded him by sending fire from heaven upon the altar of the holocaust.
David el etoak sie loang nu sin LEUM GOD we, ac kisakin mwe kisa firir, ac mwe kisa in akinsewowo. El pre, ac LEUM GOD El topuk pre lal, ac supweya e lucng me in akosak mwe kisa fin loang uh.
27 And the Lord instructed the Angel, and he turned his sword back into its sheath.
LEUM GOD El fahk nu sin lipufan sac tuh elan filiya cutlass natul ah, ac lipufan sac akos.
28 Then, seeing that the Lord had heeded him at the threshing floor of Ornan the Jebusite, David immediately immolated victims there.
Ke David el liye ma inge el akilen lah LEUM GOD El topuk pre lal, na el oru mwe kisa lal fin loang uh ke acn in kulkul wheat lal Araunah.
29 But the tabernacle of the Lord, which Moses had made in the desert, and the altar of holocausts, were at that time on the high place of Gibeon.
Lohm Nuknuk sin LEUM GOD su Moses el tuh orala yen mwesis, oayapa loang se mwe kisa uh orek fac, srakna oan ke nien alu in acn Gibeon in pacl se inge.
30 And David was unable to go to the altar, so that he might pray to God there. For he had been struck with an exceedingly great fear, seeing the sword of the Angel of the Lord.
Tusruktu David el tia ku in som alu nu sin God we, mweyen el sangeng ke cutlass se nutin lipufan lun LEUM GOD.
