1And it came to pass, at the return of the year, at the time when kings go forth, that David sent Joab, and his servants with him, and all Israel; and they laid waste the [land of the] children of Ammon, and besieged Rabbah. But David abode at Jerusalem.
1 Waato kaŋ jiiro bare, alwaato kaŋ ra bonkooney doona ka koy wongu, kala Dawda na Yowab da nga tamey donton, Israyla wongu marga kulu mo go a banda. I na Amonancey halaci parkatak, ka Rabba kwaara windi nda wongu. Amma Dawda wo goono ga goro Urusalima.
2And it came to pass at evening time that David arose from off his couch, and walked upon the roof of the king's house; and from the roof he saw a woman bathing, and the woman was very beautiful;
2 Kaŋ wiciri kambo to, Dawda tun nga daarijo boŋ ka bar-bare bonkoono windi cinari kuuko boŋ. Noodin no a go cinaro boŋ, a na wayboro fo kaŋ go ga nyumay fonnay, waybora mo ga sogo gumo.
3and David sent and inquired after the woman. And one said, Is not this Bathsheba, the daughter of Eliam, the wife of Urijah the Hittite?
3 Dawda binde donton ka waybora baaru hã. I ne: «Manti wayboro wo Bat-Seba no, Eliyam ize wayo, Uriya Hitti bora wande no?»
4And David sent messengers, and took her; and she came in to him, and he lay with her; and she had purified herself from her uncleanness; and she returned to her house.
4 Dawda binde na diyayaŋ donton i ma kand'a. Waybora mo furo a do. Nga mo kani nd'a (zama waybora hanan nga ziibi diyaŋo gaa.) A binde ye nga kwaara.
5And the woman conceived, and sent and told David, and said, I am with child.
5 Waybora te gunde. A donton ka ci Dawda se ka ne: «Ay te gaa-hinka.»
6And David sent to Joab [saying], Send me Urijah the Hittite. And Joab sent Urijah to David.
6 Kala Dawda donton Yowab do ka ne: «Ma Uriya Hitti bora donton a ma kaa ay do.» Yowab mo na Uriya donton Dawda do.
7And when Urijah had come to him, David asked how Joab prospered, and how the people prospered, and how the war prospered.
7 Waato kaŋ Uriya kaa a do, Dawda n'a hã Yowab baani, da jama wane, da wongo baaru.
8And David said to Urijah, Go down to thy house and wash thy feet. And Urijah departed out of the king's house, and there followed him presents from the king.
8 Dawda ne Uriya se: «Koy ni kwaara ka ni cey nyun.» Uriya binde fatta bonkoono windo ra. Dawda n'a banda gana nda ŋwaari, danga kubayniyaŋ kaŋ bonkoono samba nooya.
9And Urijah slept at the entrance of the king's house with all the servants of his lord, and went not down to his house.
9 Amma Uriya kani noodin bonkoono windo me gaa, nga nda nga bonkoono tamey kulu, a mana koy fu mo.
10And they had told David saying, Urijah did not go down to his house; and David said to Urijah, Art thou not come from a journey? why didst thou not go down to thy house?
10 Amma waato kaŋ i ci Dawda se ka ne: «Uriya mana koy fu,» Dawda ne Uriya se: «Manti diraw no ni fun? Ifo se no ni mana koy ni kwaara?»
11And Urijah said to David, The ark, and Israel, and Judah abide in booths; and my lord Joab, and the servants of my lord, are encamped in the open fields: shall I then go into my house, to eat and to drink, and to lie with my wife? [As] thou livest, and [as] thy soul liveth, I will not do this thing.
11 Uriya ne Dawda se: «Sundurko da Israyla nda Yahuda goono ga goro kuuru-fu yaŋ ra. Ay jine bora Yowab mo d'ay jine bora tamey go wongu marga ra batama kwaaray gaa. Ay wo binde, ya koy ay kwaara ka ŋwa ka haŋ ka kani nd'ay wande? Ay ze da ni fundo, ay si woodin te.»
12And David said to Urijah, Abide here to-day also, and to-morrow I will let thee depart. And Urijah abode in Jerusalem that day and the morrow.
12 Dawda ne Uriya se: «Ma ye ka kani neewo koyne. Suba ay ma ni sallama.» Han din binde Uriya kani Urusalima ra kala suba.
13And David invited him, and he ate and drank before him; and he made him drunk. And in the evening he went out to lie on his couch with the servants of his lord, but did not go down to his house.
13 Waato kaŋ Dawda n'a ce, kal a ŋwa ka haŋ a jine. A binde na Uriya bugandi. Wiciri kambo binde a fatta zama nga ma kani nga koyo tamey banda nga daarijo boŋ, amma a mana koy nga windo do haray.
14And it came to pass in the morning, that David wrote a letter to Joab, and sent it by Urijah.
14 Susuba ra Dawda na tira hantum Yowab se ka tira samba Uriya kambe ra.
15And he wrote in the letter saying, Set Urijah in the front of the thickest fight, and withdraw from him, that he may be smitten and die.
15 Tira ra mo a hantum ka ne: «Kala ni ma Uriya daŋ jina, nango kaŋ yanja ga koroŋ gumo. Waato din gaa araŋ ma gaa candi ka fay d'a, zama i m'a kar hal a ma bu.»
16And it came to pass as Joab watched the city, that he assigned Urijah to a place where he knew that the valiant men were.
16 A ciya binde, saaya kaŋ cine Yowab goono ga batu birno do haray, kal a na Uriya daŋ nango kaŋ a bay wongaarey go.
17And the men of the city went out and fought with Joab; and there fell some of the people, of the servants of David; and Urijah the Hittite died also.
17 Birno borey binde fatta ka wongu nda Yowab, afooyaŋ mo kaŋ ka bu, danga Dawda tamey do haray wane yaŋ nooya. Uriya Hittanca mo bu.
18Then Joab sent and told David all the matters of the war;
18 Waato din gaa no Yowab donton ka wongo baaru kulu ci Dawda se.
19and charged the messenger, saying, When thou hast ended telling the matters of the war to the king,
19 A na diya lordi ka ne: «Waato kaŋ ni na bonkoono no wongo baaru kulu ka ban,
20and if so be that the king's wrath arise, and he say to thee, Why did ye go so near to the city to fight? did ye not know that they would shoot from the wall?
20 a ga ciya, hala day bonkoono futa tun, hal a ma ne ni se: ‹Ifo se no araŋ maan birno yaadin cine wongu teeyaŋ se? Araŋ mana bay kaŋ birno cinaro boŋ borey ga hay bo?
21Who smote Abimelech the son of Jerubbesheth? did not a woman cast the upper stone of a handmill from the wall, that he died in Thebez? why did ye go near the wall? -- then say thou, Thy servant Urijah the Hittite is dead also.
21 May no ka Abimelek, Yerub-Baal ize hay? Manti wayboro fo kaŋ go birno cinaro boŋ no k'a catu nda fufuyaŋ tondi, hal a bu noodin Tebez? Ifo se no araŋ maan birno cinaro yaadin cine?› Waato din gaa ni ma ne: ‹Ni tamo Uriya Hittanca, nga mo bu.› »
22And the messenger went; and he came and told David all that Joab had sent him for.
22 Diya binde koy ka sanney kulu kaŋ yaŋ Yowab n'a donton d'a din ci Dawda se.
23And the messenger said to David, The men prevailed against us, and came out against us into the field, and we were upon them as far as the entrance of the gate.
23 Diya binde ne Dawda se: «Alborey din hin iri no. I fatta iri se hala saajo ra, amma iri n'i kankam kala birno meyo ra, furoyaŋo do.
24And the shooters shot from upon the wall against thy servants; and some of the king's servants are dead, and thy servant Urijah the Hittite is dead also.
24 Tongokoyey mo na ni tamey hay, hangawey fun birno cinaro boŋ, bonkoono tamey ra mo afooyaŋ bu. Ni tamo Uriya Hittanca mo bu.»
25Then David said to the messenger, Thus shalt thou say to Joab: Let not this thing displease thee, for the sword devours one as well as another: make thy battle strong against the city, and overthrow it; -- and encourage him.
25 Saaya din binde Dawda ne diya se: «Yaa no ni ga ci Yowab se: ‹Haya din ma si ni bina sara, zama takuba ga ŋwa kaŋ sinda suubanyaŋ. Kala ni ma ni wongo gaabandi birno boŋ, hala ni m'a ŋwa.› Ma Yowab bine gaabandi mo.»
26And the wife of Urijah heard that Urijah her husband was dead, and she mourned for her husband.
26 Waato kaŋ Uriya wando maa baaru kaŋ nga kurnyo bu, a na nga kurnyo seew.
27And when the mourning was past, David sent and fetched her to his house, and she became his wife, and bore him a son. But the thing that David had done was evil in the sight of Jehovah.
27 Waato kaŋ seew jirbey kubay, Dawda donton ka waybora sambu ka kande nga windo ra. A ciya Dawda wande mo, a na ize alboro hay a se. Amma haya kaŋ Dawda te din ga laala Rabbi diyaŋ gaa.
