II Samuel 12

And the LORD sent Nathan unto David. And he came unto him, and said unto him, There were two men in one city; the one rich, and the other poor.

Ary Jehovah naniraka an'i Natana hankao amin'i Davida. Ary dia tonga tao aminy izy ka nanao taminy hoe: Nisy olona roa lahy tao an-tanàna anankiray, ny iray manan-karena, ary ny iray malahelo.

The rich man had exceeding many flocks and herds:

Ilay manan-karena nanana ondry aman'osy sy omby betsaka;

But the poor man had nothing, save one little ewe lamb, which he had bought and nourished up: and it grew up together with him, and with his children; it did eat of his own meat, and drank of his own cup, and lay in his bosom, and was unto him as a daughter.

fa ilay malahelo kosa tsy nanana na inona na inona afa-tsy zanak'ondry vavy kely iray monja izay novidiny; ary nokolokoloiny tsara io ka nitombo teo aminy sy ny zanany; fa tamin'ny hanin-kelin-dralehilahy no nihinanany, ary tamin'ny kapoakany no nisotroany, sady notrotroiny teo an-tratrany izy ka nataony toy ny zananivavy.

And there came a traveller unto the rich man, and he spared to take of his own flock and of his own herd, to dress for the wayfaring man that was come unto him; but took the poor man's lamb, and dressed it for the man that was come to him.

Ary nisy vahiny tonga tao amin'ilay manan-karena, nefa ny ondriny aman'osiny sy ny ombiny notsitsiny ka tsy nangalany hatao nahandro ho an'ilay vahiny tonga tao aminy; fa ny zanak'ondry vavin'ilay malahelo kosa no nalainy, ka dia nataony nahandro ho an'ilay olona tonga tao aminy.

And David's anger was greatly kindled against the man; and he said to Nathan, As the LORD liveth, the man that hath done this thing shall surely die:

Dia nirehitra mafy ny fahatezeran'i Davida tamin'izany olona izany, ka hoy izy tamin'i Natana: Raha velona koa Jehovah, tsy maintsy hatao maty izay olona nanao izany;

And he shall restore the lamb fourfold, because he did this thing, and because he had no pity.

ary ilay zanak'ondry vavy tsy maintsy honerany efatra heny noho ny nanaovany izany zavatra izany sy noho ny tsy namindrany fo.

And Nathan said to David, Thou art the man. Thus saith the LORD God of Israel, I anointed thee king over Israel, and I delivered thee out of the hand of Saul;

Dia hoy Natana tamin'i Davida: Hianao no izy. Izao no lazain'i Jehovah, Andriamanitry ny Isiraely: Izaho nanosotra anao ho mpanjakan'ny Isiraely ka namonjy anao ho afaka tamin'ny tànan'i Saoly;

And I gave thee thy master's house, and thy master's wives into thy bosom, and gave thee the house of Israel and of Judah; and if that had been too little, I would moreover have given unto thee such and such things.

ary nomeko anao ny tranon'ny tomponao sy ny vadin'ny tomponao ho andefimandrinao, ary nomeko anao koa ny firenen'Isiraely sy Joda; ary raha mbola tsy ampy ho anao izany, dia ho nomeko bebe kokoa ianao;

Wherefore hast thou despised the commandment of the LORD, to do evil in his sight? thou hast killed Uriah the Hittite with the sword, and hast taken his wife to be thy wife, and hast slain him with the sword of the children of Ammon.

koa nahoana ianao no nanamavo ny tenin'i Jehovah ka nanao izay ratsy eo imasony? Oria Hetita nasianao ny sabatra, ary ny vadiny nalainao ho vadinao. Eny, efa novonoinao tamin'ny sabatry ny taranak'i Amona izy.

Now therefore the sword shall never depart from thine house; because thou hast despised me, and hast taken the wife of Uriah the Hittite to be thy wife.

Koa noho izany dia tsy hiala amin'ny taranakao mandrakizay kosa ny sabatra, satria nanamavo Ahy ianao ka naka ny vadin'i Oria Hetita ho vadinao.

Thus saith the LORD, Behold, I will raise up evil against thee out of thine own house, and I will take thy wives before thine eyes, and give them unto thy neighbour, and he shall lie with thy wives in the sight of this sun.

Izao koa no lazain'i Jehovah: Indro, Izaho efa hahatonga loza aminao avy ao amin'ny ankohonanao ihany; ary hesoriko eo imasonao ny vadinao ka homeko ny namanao; ary izy handry amin'ny vadinao amin'izao antoandrobenanahary izao.

For thou didst it secretly: but I will do this thing before all Israel, and before the sun.

Fa ianao nanao izany tao amin'ny mangingina, ary Izaho kosa haneho izany zavatra izany eo anatrehan'ny Isiraely rehetra sy amin'izao antoandrobenanahary izao.

And David said unto Nathan, I have sinned against the LORD. And Nathan said unto David, The LORD also hath put away thy sin; thou shalt not die.

Dia hoy Davida tamin'i Natana: Efa nanota tamin'i Jehovah aho. Ary hoy kosa atana tamin'i Davida: Jehovah efa nanaisotra ny helokao, ka tsy ho faty ianao.

Howbeit, because by this deed thou hast given great occasion to the enemies of the LORD to blaspheme, the child also that is born unto thee shall surely die.

Nefa noho ny nampitenenanao ratsy ny fahavalon'i Jehovah amin'izany zavatra izany dia ho faty tokoa ny zaza izay haterakao.

And Nathan departed unto his house. And the LORD struck the child that Uriah's wife bare unto David, and it was very sick.

Ary Natana nody tany an-tranony. Ary Jehovah namely ny zaza izay nateraky ny vadin'i Oria tamin'i Davida, ka dia narary be ny zaza.

David therefore besought God for the child; and David fasted, and went in, and lay all night upon the earth.

Ary nifona tamin'Andriamanitra ho an'ny zaza Davida, dia nifady hanina sady niditra ka nandry tamin'ny tany mandritra ny alina.

And the elders of his house arose, and went to him, to raise him up from the earth: but he would not, neither did he eat bread with them.

Ary ny loholona tao an-tranony nitsangana nankao aminy hampiarina azy amin'ny tany; nefa tsy nety izy sady tsy nety niara-nihinan-kanina taminy.

And it came to pass on the seventh day, that the child died. And the servants of David feared to tell him that the child was dead: for they said, Behold, while the child was yet alive, we spake unto him, and he would not hearken unto our voice: how will he then vex himself, if we tell him that the child is dead?

Ary nony nandray hafitoana, dia maty ny zaza; ary ny mpanompon'i Davida natahotra hilaza ny nahafatesan'ny zaza aminy, fa hoy ireo: Indro, fony mbola velona aza ny zaza, raha niteny taminy isika, dia tsy nohenoiny ny feontsika, koa hataontsika ahoana no filaza aminy ny fahafatesan'ny zaza? fandrao hanimba tena izy.

But when David saw that his servants whispered, David perceived that the child was dead: therefore David said unto his servants, Is the child dead? And they said, He is dead.

Ary nony hitan'i Davida fa nitakoritsika ny mpanompony, dia fantany fa maty ny zaza; ka hoy izy tamin'ny mpanompony: Maty va ny zaza? Ary hoy ireo: Maty.

Then David arose from the earth, and washed, and anointed himself, and changed his apparel, and came into the house of the LORD, and worshipped: then he came to his own house; and when he required, they set bread before him, and he did eat.

Dia niarina tsy nandry tamin'ny tany intsony Davida ary nandro sy nihosotra diloilo ary nanova ny fitafiany, dia nankao amin'ny tranon'i Jehovah ka niankohoka; ary dia nody tany an-tranony izy ka niantso mba hisy handroso hanina eo anoloany, dia nihinana izy.

Then said his servants unto him, What thing is this that thou hast done? thou didst fast and weep for the child, while it was alive; but when the child was dead, thou didst rise and eat bread.

Ary hoy ny mpanompony taminy: Ahoana izao zavatra nataonao izao? Fa fony mbola velona ny zaza, dia nifady hanina sy nitomany ianao, fa rehefa maty ny zaza, dia niarina sy nihinan-kanina kosa.

And he said, While the child was yet alive, I fasted and wept: for I said, Who can tell whether GOD will be gracious to me, that the child may live?

Ary hoy izy: Fony mbola velona ny zaza, dia nifady hanina sy nitomany tokoa aho: fa hoy izaho: Iza moa no mahalala na mba hamindra fo amiko Jehovah ka hahavelona ny zaza, na tsia?

But now he is dead, wherefore should I fast? can I bring him back again? I shall go to him, but he shall not return to me.

Kanjo maty izy izao, ka nahoana aho no hifady hanina intsony? Mahay mampiverina azy va aho? Izaho no hankany aminy, fa izy tsy hiverina etỳ amiko intsony.

And David comforted Bath–sheba his wife, and went in unto her, and lay with her: and she bare a son, and he called his name Solomon: and the LORD loved him.

Ary Davida nampionona an'i Batseba vadiny, dia niditra tao aminy ka nandry taminy; ary niteraka zazalahy izy, ka ny anarany nataony hoe Solomona. Ary Jehovah tia azy,

And he sent by the hand of Nathan the prophet; and he called his name Jedidiah, because of the LORD.

dia naniraka an'i Natana mpaminany ka nanao ny anaran'ny zaza hoe Jedidia noho ny amin'i Jehovah.

And Joab fought against Rabbah of the children of Ammon, and took the royal city.

Ary Joaba namely an'i Raban'ny taranak'i Amona ka nahafaka ny tanànan'ny mpanjaka.

And Joab sent messengers to David, and said, I have fought against Rabbah, and have taken the city of waters.

Ary Joaba naniraka olona tany amin'i Davida nanao hoe: Namely an'i Raba aho ka nahafaka ny tanàna misy rano.

Now therefore gather the rest of the people together, and encamp against the city, and take it: lest I take the city, and it be called after my name.

Koa vorio ny olona sisa izao, ka mitobia hamely ny tanàna, ary aoka ho afakao izy; fandrao izaho no hahafaka ny tanàna, ka dia hotononina araka ny anarako izy.

And David gathered all the people together, and went to Rabbah, and fought against it, and took it.

Ary Davida namory ny vahoaka rehetra, dia nankany Raba ka namely azy ary nahafaka azy.

And he took their king's crown from off his head, the weight whereof was a talent of gold with the precious stones: and it was set on David's head. And he brought forth the spoil of the city in great abundance.

Dia nesoriny ny satro-boninahitr'ilay mpanjaka teny an-dohany talenta volamena iray no lanjany, sady nisy vato soa, ary dia nisatrohan'i Davida. Ary navoakany tao an-tanàna ny babo azo, ka be dia be ireny.

And he brought forth the people that were therein, and put them under saws, and under harrows of iron, and under axes of iron, and made them pass through the brickkiln: and thus did he unto all the cities of the children of Ammon. So David and all the people returned unto Jerusalem.

Ary dia navoakany koa ny olona teo ka nataony teo amin'ny tsofa sy ny fangao-by lehibe ary ny famaky vy, ary nataony tao anatin'ny fandoroam-biriky; toy izany no nataony tamin'ny tanànan'ny taranak'i Amona rehetra. Ary Davida sy ny vahoaka rehetra dia niverina nankany Jerosalema.
