II Samuel 11

And it came to pass, after the year was expired, at the time when kings go forth to battle, that David sent Joab, and his servants with him, and all Israel; and they destroyed the children of Ammon, and besieged Rabbah. But David tarried still at Jerusalem.

Ary rehefa niherina ny taona, ka mby amin'ny andro fandehanan'ny mpanjaka hiady, dia naniraka an'i Joaba sy ny mpanompony ary ny Isiraely rehetra Davida, ka nandringana ny taranak'i Amona ireo sady nanao fahirano an'i Raha; fa Davida kosa nijanona tany Jerosalema ihany.

And it came to pass in an eveningtide, that David arose from off his bed, and walked upon the roof of the king's house: and from the roof he saw a woman washing herself; and the woman was very beautiful to look upon.

Ary nony harivariva, dia niala tao ampandriany Davida ka nitsangantsangana teo an-tampon'ny lapa; ary raha teo izy dia nahatazana vehivavy mandro; ary ravehivavy dia tsara tarehy maha-te-hijery.

And David sent and enquired after the woman. And one said, Is not this Bath–sheba, the daughter of Eliam, the wife of Uriah the Hittite?

Ary Davida dia naniraka hanontany ny amin-dravehivavy. Ary nisy nanao hoe: Tsy iny va no Batseba, zanakavavin'i Eliama, sady vadin'i Oria Hetita?

And David sent messengers, and took her; and she came in unto him, and he lay with her; for she was purified from her uncleanness: and she returned unto her house.

Ary Davida naniraka olona ka nampaka azy; dia tonga tao aminy izy ka nandriany. Ary ravehivavy nanamasina ny tenany ho afaka tamin'ny halotoany, dia nody tany an-tranony.

And the woman conceived, and sent and told David, and said, I am with child.

Ary nanan'anaka ravehivavy ka naniraka hilaza tamin'i Davida hoe: Manan'anaka aho.

And David sent to Joab, saying, Send me Uriah the Hittite. And Joab sent Uriah to David.

Ary Davida naniraka tany amin'i Joaba hanao hoe: Asaovy mankaty amiko kely Oria Hetita. Dia nasain'i Joaba nankany amin'i Davida Oria.

And when Uriah was come unto him, David demanded of him how Joab did, and how the people did, and how the war prospered.

Ary nony tonga teo amin'i Davida izy, dia nanontaniany ny toetr'i Joaba sy ny olona ary ny toetry ny ady.

And David said to Uriah, Go down to thy house, and wash thy feet. And Uriah departed out of the king's house, and there followed him a mess of meat from the king.

Ary hoy Davida tamin'i Oria: Andeha ary mody, ka sasao ny tongotrao. Ary Oria niala tao an-tranon'ny mpanjaka, ary dia nampanarahina nahandro avy tao amin'ny mpanjaka izy.

But Uriah slept at the door of the king's house with all the servants of his lord, and went not down to his house.

Nefa Oria nandry teo am-baravarana ny tranon'ny mpanjaka, teo amin'ny mpanompon'ny tompony rehetra, fa tsy nidina nody tany an-tranony izy tsy akory.

And when they had told David, saying, Uriah went not down unto his house, David said unto Uriah, Camest thou not from thy journey? why then didst thou not go down unto thine house?

Ary nisy nanambara tamin'i Davida hoe: Tsy nidina nody tany an-tranony Oria. Dia hoy Davida tamin'i Oria: Tsy avy lavitra va ianao? koa nahoana ianao no tsy midina mody any an-tranonao?

And Uriah said unto David, The ark, and Israel, and Judah, abide in tents; and my lord Joab, and the servants of my lord, are encamped in the open fields; shall I then go into mine 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.

Fa hoy Oria tamin'i Davida: Ny fiara sy ny Isiraely ary ny Joda mitoetra amin'ny trano rantsan-kazo; ary Joaba tompoko sy ny mpanompon'ny tompoko mitoby any an-tsaha, ka izaho kosa va hody any an-tranoko hihinana sy hisotro ary handry amin'ny vadiko? Raha velona koa ianao, ary raha velona koa ny ainao, tsy hanao izany aho.

And David said to Uriah, Tarry here to day also, and to morrow I will let thee depart. So Uriah abode in Jerusalem that day, and the morrow.

Ary hoy Davida tamin'i Oria: Mitoera ihany ary atỳ anio, fa rahampitso dia halefako ianao. Dia nitoetra tany Jerosalema androtrizay sy ny ampitson'iny Oria.

And when David had called him, he did eat and drink before him; and he made him drunk: and at even he went out to lie on his bed with the servants of his lord, but went not down to his house.

Ary nasain'i Davida izy, dia nihinana sy nisotro teo anatrehany, ka nomamoiny, ary nony hariva dia nivoaka izy ka nandry teo amin'ilay nandriany teo amin'ny mpanompon'ny tompony ihany, fa tsy nidina nody tany an-tranony.

And it came to pass in the morning, that David wrote a letter to Joab, and sent it by the hand of Uriah.

Ary nony maraina, Davida dia nanoratra taratasy ho any amin'i Joaba, ka nampitondrainy an'i Oria izany.

And he wrote in the letter, saying, Set ye Uriah in the forefront of the hottest battle, and retire ye from him, that he may be smitten, and die.

Ary izao no soratra nataony tao amin'ny taratasy: Arosoinareo amin'ny ady mafy Oria; dia ilaozy izy mba hasiany ho faty.

And it came to pass, when Joab observed the city, that he assigned Uriah unto a place where he knew that valiant men were.

Ary raha mbola nanao fahirano ny tanàna Joaba, dia nanendry an'i Oria ho eo amin'izay hitany misy lehilahy mahery.

And the men of the city went out, and fought with Joab: and there fell some of the people of the servants of David; and Uriah the Hittite died also.

Ary ny mponina tao an-tanàna nivoaka hiady amin'i Joaba, ka nahafatesana ny mpanompon'i Davida, ary maty koa Oria Hetita.

Then Joab sent and told David all the things concerning the war;

Ary Joaba naniraka hilaza tsara any amin'i Davida ny toetry ny ady;

And charged the messenger, saying, When thou hast made an end of telling the matters of the war unto the king,

ary nandidy ilay iraka izy hoe: Rehefa voalazanao tsara amin'ny mpanjaka ny toetry ny ady,

And if so be that the king's wrath arise, and he say unto thee, Wherefore approached ye so nigh unto the city when ye did fight? knew ye not that they would shoot from the wall?

ka tezitra ny mpanjaka ary manao aminao hoe: Nahoana no nanakaiky ny tanàna toy izany ianareo raha niady? Tsy fantatrareo va fa hitifitra eo amin'ny manda izy?

Who smote Abimelech the son of Jerubbesheth? did not a woman cast a piece of a millstone upon him from the wall, that he died in Thebez? why went ye nigh the wall? then say thou, Thy servant Uriah the Hittite is dead also.

Fa iza no namely an'i Abimeleka, zanak'i Jerobeseta? Moa tsy vehivavy va no nanjera vato fikosoham-bary taminy avy teo amin'ny manda, ka dia maty tao Tebeza izy? Koa nahoana no nanakaiky ny manda ianareo? dia ataovy hoe: Oria Hetita mpanomponao mba maty koa.

So the messenger went, and came and shewed David all that Joab had sent him for.

Ary nandeha ilay iraka, dia tonga tamin'i Davida ka nanambara taminy izay rehetra nanirahan'i Joaba azy.

And the messenger said unto David, Surely the men prevailed against us, and came out unto us into the field, and we were upon them even unto the entering of the gate.

Ary hoy ny iraka tamin'i Davida: Nahery noho izahay ireny, ary nivoahany tany an-tsaha izahay, ka dia nenjehinay hatreo anoloan'ny vavahady kosa izy.

And the shooters shot from off the wall upon thy servants; and some of the king's servants be dead, and thy servant Uriah the Hittite is dead also.

Ary ny mpitifitra teo amin'ny manda nitifitra ny mpanomponao; ary nahafatesana ny mpanompon'ny mpanjaka, ary Oria Hetita mpanomponao mba maty koa.

Then David said unto the messenger, Thus shalt thou say unto Joab, Let not this thing displease thee, for the sword devoureth one as well as another: make thy battle more strong against the city, and overthrow it: and encourage thou him.

Dia hoy Davida tamin'ny iraka: Izao no holazainao amin'i Joaba: Aza malahelo amin'izany ianao, fa ny sabatra tsy mifidy hasiana; herezo ihany ny adinao amin'ny tanàna, ka ravao izy. Ary omeo toky Joaba.

And when the wife of Uriah heard that Uriah her husband was dead, she mourned for her husband.

Ary nony ren'ny vadin'i Oria fa maty ny lahy, dia nisaona azy izy.

And when the mourning was past, David sent and fetched her to his house, and she became his wife, and bare him a son. But the thing that David had done displeased the LORD.

Ary rehefa afa-tsaona izy, dia nampanalain'i Davida ho any an-tranony, ary dia novadiny izy ka niteraka zazalahy taminy. Nefa tsy sitrak'i Jehovah izany nataon'i Davida izany.
