¹Oo haddana Rabbiga cadhadiisii aad bay ugu kululaatay reer binu Israa'iil, oo Daa'uud buu iyagii ku soo kiciyey, oo wuxuu yidhi, Tag oo soo tiri reer Israa'iil iyo reer Yahuudah.

¹And again the anger of Jehovah was kindled against Israel, and he moved David against them saying, Go, number Israel and Judah.

²Markaasaa boqorkii ku yidhi Yoo'aab oo ahaa sirkaalkii ciidanka oo isaga la joogay, Horay iyo dib u dhex mar qabiilooyinka reer binu Israa'iil oo dhan, tan iyo Daan iyo ilaa Bi'ir Shebac, oo dadka soo tiriya si aan u ogaado dadka tiradiisa.

²And the king said to Joab the captain of the host, who was with him, Go, I pray thee, through all the tribes of Israel, from Dan even to Beer-sheba, and count the people, that I may know the number of the people.

³Markaasaa Yoo'aab boqorkii ku yidhi, Rabbiga Ilaahaaga ahu ha badiyo dadka, oo in kastoo ay yihiinba, ha ku daro boqol jibbaar, oo indhahaagu, boqorow, sayidkaygiiyow, taas ha arkeen; laakiinse maxaad taas ugu farxaysaa, boqorow, sayidkaygiiyow?

³And Joab said to the king, May Jehovah thy God even add to the people, how many soever they be, a hundredfold, and that the eyes of my lord the king may see [it]; but why does my lord the king delight in this thing?

⁴Habase yeeshee boqorka hadalkiisii waa ka adkaaday hadalladii Yoo'aab iyo saraakiishii ciidankaba. Markaasaa Yoo'aab iyo saraakiishii ciidankuba boqorka hortiisii ka tageen inay dadkii soo tiriyaan.

⁴But the king's word prevailed against Joab, and against the captains of the army. And Joab and the captains of the army went out from the presence of the king to count the people of Israel.

⁵Oo waxay ka gudbeen Webi Urdun, oo degeen Carooceer, oo ku taal xagga midigta oo magaalada ku dhex taal dooxadii Gaad, iyo tan iyo Yacser,

⁵And they passed over the Jordan, and encamped in Aroer, on the right side of the city that is in the midst of the ravine of Gad, and toward Jaazer.

⁶oo haddana waxay yimaadeen Gilecaad, iyo ilaa dalkii Taxtiim Xodshii; oo waxay yimaadeen Daan Yacan, iyo Siidoon hareeraheeda,

⁶And they came to Gilead, and to the land of Tahtim-hodshi; and came to Dan-jaan, and to the environs of Sidon;

⁷oo waxay yimaadeen dhufayskii Turos, iyo magaalooyinkii reer Xiwi iyo reer Kancaan oo dhan; oo waxay tageen xagga koonfureed oo dalka Yahuudah ilaa Bi'ir Shebac.

⁷and they came to the fortified city of Tyre, and to all the cities of the Hivites and of the Canaanites; and went out to the south of Judah, to Beer-sheba.

⁸Haddaba markay dalkii oo dhan horay iyo dib u dhex mareen ayay Yeruusaalem ku soo noqdeen sagaal bilood iyo labaatan maalmood dabadood.

⁸And they went through all the land, and came to Jerusalem at the end of nine months and twenty days.

⁹Markaasaa Yoo'aab boqorkii siiyey tiradii dadka; oo waxaa dalka Israa'iil ku jiray siddeed boqol oo kun oo nin oo seefqaad ah oo xoog leh; oo waxaa dalka Yahuudahna ku jiray shan boqol oo kun oo nin.

⁹And Joab gave the sum of the number of the people to the king; and there were of Israel eight hundred thousand valiant men that drew sword; and the men of Judah were five hundred thousand men.

¹⁰Oo Daa'uudna qalbigiisii ayaa naxay markuu dadka tiriyey dabadeed. Markaasaa Daa'uud Rabbiga ku yidhi, Waxaan sameeyey aad baan ugu dembaabay; haddaba Rabbiyow, waan ku baryayaaye, iga fogee dembigayga anoo addoonkaaga ah, waayo, nacasnimo weyn baan sameeyey.

¹⁰And David's heart smote him after he had numbered the people. And David said to Jehovah, I have sinned greatly in what I have done; and now, I beseech thee, Jehovah, put away the iniquity of thy servant; for I have done very foolishly.

¹¹Oo markii Daa'uud subixii toosay ayaa eraygii Rabbigu u yimid Nebi Gaad, oo ahaa Daa'uud wax arkihiisa, oo wuxuu yidhi,

¹¹And when David arose in the morning, the word of Jehovah came to the prophet Gad, David's seer, saying,

¹²Tag oo Daa'uud la hadal oo waxaad ku tidhaahdaa, Rabbigu wuxuu kugu leeyahay, Saddexdan waxyaalood baan ku siinayaa, ee ka dooro mid aan kugu sameeyo.

¹²Go and say to David, Thus saith Jehovah: I impose on thee three [things]; choose one of them that I may do it unto thee.

¹³Sidaas daraaddeed Gaad baa Daa'uud u yimid, oo intuu u warramay ayuu ku yidhi, Toddoba sannadood dalkaaga abaari ma kuugu soo degtaa? Mase saddex bilood baad cadaawayaashaada ka cararaysaa iyagoo ku eryanaya? Mase saddex maalmood baa belaayo dalkaaga lagu soo dejiyaa? Haddaba tasho, oo ka fiirso jawaabta aan u celiyo kii i soo diray.

¹³And Gad came to David, and told him, and said to him, Shall seven years of famine come to thee in thy land? or wilt thou flee three months before thine adversaries while they pursue thee? or shall there be three days' pestilence in thy land? Now be aware and consider what word I shall bring again to him that sent me.

¹⁴Markaasaa Daa'uud wuxuu Gaad ku yidhi, Cidhiidhi weyn baan ku jiraa; haddaba Rabbiga gacantiisa aan ku dhacno; waayo, naxariistiisu waa badan tahay; laakiinse yaanan dad gacantiis ku dhicin.

¹⁴And David said to Gad, I am in a great strait: let us fall, I pray thee, into the hand of Jehovah; for his mercies are great; but let me not fall into the hand of man.

¹⁵Saas aawadeed Rabbigu belaayo ayuu ku soo dejiyey reer binu Israa'iil, taasoo timid subaxdii iyo ilaa wakhtigii loo qabtay; oo ilaa Daan iyo tan iyo Bi'ir Shebac waxaa dadkii ka dhintay toddobaatan kun oo nin.

¹⁵And Jehovah sent a pestilence upon Israel from the morning even to the set time; and there died of the people from Dan even to Beer-sheba seventy thousand men.

¹⁶Markii malaggii gacanta u fidiyey inuu baabbi'iyo Yeruusaalem ayaa Rabbigu belaayadii ka qoomamooday, oo wuxuu ku yidhi malaggii dadka baabbi'inayay, Bes weeye, haddaba gacanta soo celi. Oo malaggii Rabbiguna wuxuu ag joogay meeshii hadhuudhka lagu tumi jiray oo uu Arawnaah kii reer Yebuus lahaa.

¹⁶And the angel stretched out his hand upon Jerusalem to destroy it; but Jehovah repented him of the evil, and said to the angel that destroyed among the people, It is enough: withdraw now thine hand. And the angel of Jehovah was by the threshing-floor of Araunah the Jebusite.

¹⁷Markaasaa Daa'uud wuxuu la hadlay Rabbiga kolkuu arkay malaggii dadka laayay, oo yidhi, Bal eeg, waan dembaabay, oo wax qalloocan baan sameeyey, laakiinse idahanu maxay sameeyeen? Haddaba waan ku baryayaaye, gacantaadu ha ka gees noqoto aniga iyo reerka aabbahay.

¹⁷And David spoke to Jehovah when he saw the angel that smote among the people, and said, Behold, it is I that have sinned, and it is I that have committed iniquity; but these sheep, what have they done? let thy hand, I pray thee, be on me, and on my father's house!

¹⁸Oo Gaadna maalintaas ayuu Daa'uud u yimid, oo ku yidhi, Tag, oo Rabbiga meel allabari uga dhis meeshii hadhuudhka lagu tumi jiray ee Arawnaahkii reer Yebuus.

¹⁸And Gad came that day to David, and said to him, Go up, rear an altar to Jehovah in the threshing-floor of Araunah the Jebusite.

¹⁹Oo Daa'uud baa ku tegey wixii uu Gaad ku yidhi iyo sidii Rabbigu ku amray.

¹⁹And David, according to the saying of Gad, went up as Jehovah had commanded.

²⁰Oo Arawnaah ayaa arkay boqorkii iyo addoommadiisii oo xaggiisa u soo socda; markaasaa Arawnaah soo baxay, oo boqorka hortiisii ayuu ku sujuuday, wejigana dhulkuu saaray.

²⁰And Araunah looked, and saw the king and his servants coming on towards him; and Araunah went out, and bowed himself before the king with his face to the ground.

²¹Oo Arawnaah wuxuu yidhi, Boqorow, sayidkaygiiyow, maxaad iigu timid anoo addoonkaaga ah? Oo Daa'uudna wuxuu yidhi, Waxaan kuugu imid inaan kaa iibsado meesha wax lagu tumo, si aan Rabbiga uga dhiso meel allabari inay belaayadu dadka ka joogsato.

²¹And Araunah said, Why is my lord the king come to his servant? And David said, To buy the threshing-floor of thee, to build an altar to Jehovah, that the plague may be stayed from the people.

²²Oo Arawnaahna wuxuu Daa'uud ku yidhi, Boqorow, sayidkaygiiyow, qaado oo Ilaah u bixi wax alla wixii kula wanaagsan; bal eeg, waa kuwan dibidii qurbaanka la gubo, waana kuwan alaabtii wax lagu tumayay iyo alaabtii dibidu si ay qoryihii u noqdaan.

²²And Araunah said to David, Let my lord the king take and offer up that which is good in his sight: see, [here are] oxen for the burnt-offering, and the threshing-sledges and implements of the oxen for wood.

²³Boqorow, waxan oo dhan anoo Arawnaah ah ayaan ku siinayaa. Oo Arawnaah wuxuu boqorkii ku yidhi, Rabbiga Ilaahaaga ahu ha ku aqbalo.

²³All these things, O king, doth Araunah give to the king. And Araunah said to the king, Jehovah thy God accept thee.

²⁴Markaasaa boqorkii wuxuu Arawnaah ku yidhi, Maya, laakiinse sida runta ah qiimaan kaaga iibsanayaa, oo Rabbiga Ilaahayga ahna qurbaanno la gubo ugu bixin maayo wax aanan waxba ka bixin. Haddaba Daa'uud wuxuu meeshii wax lagu tumi jiray iyo dibidiiba ku iibsaday konton sheqel oo lacag ah.Markaasaa Daa'uud halkaas Rabbiga uga dhisay meel allabari, oo wuxuu u bixiyey qurbaanno la gubo iyo qurbaanno nabaadiino. Haddaba Rabbigu waa aqbalay baryadii dalkii loo baryay, oo belaayadiina dalkii way ka joogsatay.

²⁴And the king said to Araunah, No; but I will in any case buy [them] of thee at a price: neither will I offer up to Jehovah my God burnt-offerings without cost. And David bought the threshing-floor and the oxen for fifty shekels of silver.

²⁵Markaasaa Daa'uud halkaas Rabbiga uga dhisay meel allabari, oo wuxuu u bixiyey qurbaanno la gubo iyo qurbaanno nabaadiino. Haddaba Rabbigu waa aqbalay baryadii dalkii loo baryay, oo belaayadiina dalkii way ka joogsatay.

²⁵And David built there an altar to Jehovah, and offered up burnt-offerings and peace-offerings. And Jehovah was propitious to the land, and the plague was stayed from Israel.
