Luo Samuel 11
1 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.
And it came to pass at the return of the year, at the time when kings go forth to war, that David sent Joab and his servants with him, and all Israel, and they spoiled the children of Ammon, and besieged Rabba: but David remained in Jerusalem.
2 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.
In the mean time it happened that David arose from his bed after noon, and walked upon the roof of the king’s house: and he saw from the roof of his house a woman washing herself, over against him: and the woman was very beautiful.
3 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.”
And the king sent, and inquired who the woman was. And it was told him, that she was Bethsabee the daughter of Eliam, the wife of Urias the Hethite.
4 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.
And David sent messengers, and took her, and she came in to him, and he slept with her: and presently she was purified from her uncleanness:
5 Tok kutu el konauk lac el pitutu, ac sapla fahk nu sel David.
And she returned to her house having conceived. And she sent and told David, and said: I have conceived.
6 Na David el supwala kas nu sel Joab, “Supwalma Uriah mwet Hit nu yuruk.” Ouinge Joab el supwalla nu yorol David.
And David sent to Joab, saying: Send me Urias the Hethite. And Joab sent Urias to David.
7 Ke Uriah el sun acn we, David el siyuk sel lah Joab ac mwet mweun lal ah fuka, oayapa fuka mweun ah.
And Urias came to David. And David asked how Joab did, and the people, and how the war was carried on.
8 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.
And David said to Urias: Go into thy house, and wash thy feet. And Urias went out from the king’s house, and there went out after him a mess of meat from the king.
9 Tusruktu Uriah el tiana som nu lohm sel ah. El motullana ke mutunpot nu ke lohm sin tokosra yurin mwet topang lun tokosra.
But Urias slept before the gate of the king’s house, with the other servants of his lord, and went not down to his own house.
10 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?”
And it was told David by some that said: Urias went not to his house. And David said to Urias: Didst thou not come from thy journey? why didst thou not go down to thy house?
11 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!”
And Urias said to David: The ark of God and Israel and Juda dwell in tents, and my lord Joab and the servants of my lord abide upon the face of the earth: and shall I go into my house, to eat and to drink, and to sleep with my wife? By thy welfare and by the welfare of thy soul I will not do this thing.
12 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.
Then David said to Urias: Tarry here today, and tomorrow I will send thee away. Urias tarried in Jerusalem that day and the next.
13 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.
And David called him to eat and to drink before him, and he made him drunk: and he went out in the evening, and slept on his couch with the servants of his lord, and went not down into his house.
14 Lotutang in len tok ah, David el simusla leta se nu sel Joab, ac sang Uriah el us.
And when the morning was come, David wrote a letter to Joab: and sent it by the hand of Urias,
15 El sim ouinge: “Likilya Uriah ke tak soko emeet an, yen ma upa mweun we ah, na foloki lukel in mau anwuki el.”
Writing in the letter: Set ye Urias in the front of the battle, where the fight is strongest: and leave ye him, that he may be wounded and die.
16 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.
Wherefore as Joab was besieging the city, he put Urias in the place where he knew the bravest men were.
17 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.
And the men coming out of the city, fought against Joab, and there fell some of the people of the servants of David, and Urias the Hethite was killed also.
18 Na Joab el supwala kas nu yorol David in fahk ke luman mweun sac,
Then Joab sent, and told David all things concerning the battle.
19 ac el fahk nu sin mwet se ma us kas sac, “Tukun kom srumun ke mweun uh nu sel tokosra,
And he charged the messenger, saying: When thou hast told all the words of the battle to the king,
20 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?
If thou see him to be angry, and he shall say: Why did you approach so near to the wall to fight? knew you not that many darts are thrown from above off the wall?
21 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!’”
Who killed Abimelech the son of Jerobaal? did not a woman cast a piece of a millstone upon him from the wall, and slew him in Thebes? Why did you go near the wall? Thou shalt say: Thy servant Urias the Hethite is also slain.
22 Ouinge mwet utuk kas sac som nu yorol David ac fahk ma nukewa Joab el sapkin elan tuh fahk ah.
So the messenger departed, and came and told David all that Joab had commanded him.
23 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.
And the messenger said to David: The men prevailed against us, and they came out to us into the field: and we vigorously charged and pursued them even to the gate of the city.
24 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.”
And the archers shot their arrows at thy servants from off the wall above: and some of the king’s servants are slain, and thy servant Urias the Hethite is also dead.
25 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.”
And David said to the messenger: Thus shalt thou say to Joab: Let not this thing discourage thee: for various is the event of war: and sometimes one, sometimes another is consumed by the sword: encourage thy warriors against The city, and exhort them that thou mayest overthrow it.
26 Ke Bathsheba el lohngak lah mukul tumal ah misa, el arulana tung kacl.
And the wife of Urias heard that Urias her husband was dead, and she mourned for him.
27 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.
And the mourning being over, David sent and brought her into his house, and she became his wife, and she bore him a son: and this thing which David had done, was displeasing to the Lord.
