2 Samuel 12
1 Then the Lord sent Nathan to David. And when he had come to him, he said to him: “Two men were in one city: one wealthy, and the other poor.
Pagkatapos ipinadala ni Yahweh si Natan kay David. Pumunta siya sa kaniya at sinabi, “May dalawang lalaki sa isang lungsod. Mayaman ang isang lalaki at mahirap ang isa.
2 The wealthy man had very many sheep and oxen.
Maraming bakahan at kawan ang mayamang lalaki,
3 But the poor man had nothing at all, except one little sheep, which he had bought and nourished. And she had grown up before him, together with his children, eating from his bread, and drinking from his cup, and sleeping in his bosom. And she was like a daughter to him.
pero ang mahirap na lalaki ay wala maliban sa isang maliit na babaeng tupa na binili niya at pinakain at pinalaki. Lumaki iyon kasama niya at kasama ng kaniyang mga anak. Kumakain ang tupa kasama niya at umiinom mula sa kaniyang sariling tasa at natutulog iyon sa kaniyang mga bisig at parang isang anak na babae sa kaniya.
4 But when a certain traveler had come to the wealthy man, neglecting to take from his own sheep and oxen, so that he might present a feast for that traveler, who had come to him, he took the sheep of the poor man, and he prepared a meal for the man who had come to him.”
Isang araw may isang panauhin ang dumating sa mayamang lalaki, pero ayaw ng mayamang lalaki na kumuha ng isang hayop mula sa kaniyang sariling bakahan at mga kawan para magbigay ng pagkain para sa kaniya. Sa halip kinuha niya ang babaeng tupa ng mahirap na lalaki at niluto ito para sa kaniyang panauhin.”
5 Then David’s indignation was enraged exceedingly against that man, and he said to Nathan: “As the Lord lives, the man who has done this is a son of death.
Nag-aapoy sa galit si David laban sa mayamang lalaki at nagalit siya ng labis kay Natan, “Habang si Yahweh ay nabubuhay, dapat patayin ang lalaking gumawa nito.
6 He shall restore the sheep fourfold, because he did this word, and he did not take pity.”
Dapat niyang bayaran ang tupa ng apat na beses dahil ginawa niya ang ganoong bagay at dahil wala siyang awa sa mahirap na lalaki.”
7 But Nathan said to David: “You are that man. Thus says the Lord, the God of Israel: ‘I anointed you as king over Israel, and I rescued you from the hand of Saul.
Pagkatapos sinabi ni Nathan kay David, “Ikaw ang lalaking iyon! Sinabi ni Yahweh, ang Diyos ng Israel, 'Pinahiran kita ng langis para maging hari ng buong Israel at iniligtas kita mula sa kamay ni Saul.
8 And I gave the house of your lord to you, and the wives of your lord into your bosom. And I gave the house of Israel and of Judah to you. And as if these things were small, I shall add much greater things to you.
Ibinigay ko sa iyo ang bahay ng iyong amo at ang mga asawa ng iyong amo sa iyong mga bisig. Ibinigay ko rin sa iyo ang bahay ng Israel at Juda. At kung kulang pa iyon, ibibigay ko pa sana sa iyo ang maraming bagay bilang karagdagan.
9 Therefore, why have you despised the word of the Lord, so that you did evil in my sight? You have struck down Uriah the Hittite with the sword. And you have taken his wife as a wife for yourself. And you have put him to death with the sword of the sons of Ammon.
Kaya bakit mo inalipusta ang mga utos ni Yahweh, para gumawa ng masama sa kaniyang paningin? Pinatay mo si Urias ang Heteo sa pamamagitan ng espada at kinuha ang kaniyang asawa upang maging iyong sariling asawa. Pinatay mo siya sa pamamagitan ng espada ng hukbo ng Ammon.
10 For this reason, the sword shall not withdraw from your house, even perpetually, because you have despised me, and you have taken the wife of Uriah the Hittite, so that she may be your wife.’
Kaya ngayon hindi aalis ang espada sa iyong bahay, dahil inalipusta mo ako at kinuha ang asawa ni Urias ang Heteo bilang iyong asawa.'
11 And so, thus says the Lord: ‘Behold, I will raise up over you an evil from your own house. And I will take your wives away before your eyes, and I will give them to your neighbor. And he will sleep with your wives in the sight of this sun.
Sinabi ni Yahweh, 'Tingnan, ibabangon ko ang kapahamakan laban sa iyo mula sa iyong sariling bahay. Sa harapan ng iyong mga mata, kukunin ko ang iyong mga asawa at ibibigay sila sa iyong kapwa at sisipingan niya ang iyong mga asawa sa maliwanag na araw.
12 For you acted secretly. But I will do this word in the sight of all of Israel, and in the sight of the sun.’”
Dahil palihim mong ginawa ang iyong kasalanan, pero gagawin ko ang bagay na ito sa harapan ng buong Israel, sa tanghaling-tapat.”'
13 And David said to Nathan, “I have sinned against the Lord.” And Nathan said to David: “The Lord has also taken away your sin. You shall not die.
Pagkatapos sinabi ni David kay Natan, “Nagkasala ako laban kay Yahweh.” Sumagot si Natan kay David, “Pinatawad na rin ni Yahweh ang iyong kasalanan. Hindi ka papatayin.
14 Yet truly, because you have given occasion to the enemies of the Lord to blaspheme, because of this word, the son who was born to you: dying he shall die.”
Gayunman, dahil sa gawaing ito inalipusta mo si Yahweh, tiyak na mamamatay ang batang isisilang sa iyo.”
15 And Nathan returned to his own house. And the Lord struck the little one, whom the wife of Uriah had borne to David, and he was despaired of.
Pagkatapos umalis si Natan at umuwi. Sinaktan ni Yahweh ang anak ng asawa ni Urias kay David at lubha siyang nagkasakit.
16 And David begged the Lord on behalf of the little one. And David fasted strictly, and entering alone, he lay upon the ground.
Pagkatapos nagsumamo si David sa Diyos para sa bata. Nag-ayuno si David at pumunta sa loob at buong gabing humiga sa sahig.
17 Then the elders of his house came, urging him to rise up from the ground. And he was not willing, nor would he eat a meal with them.
Bumangon at tumayo sa tabi niya ang mga nakatatanda sa kaniyang bahay, para ibangon siya mula sa sahig, pero hindi siya bumangon at hindi siya kumain kasama nila.
18 Then, on the seventh day, it happened that the infant died. And the servants of David were afraid to report to him that the little one had died. For they said: “Behold, when the child was still alive, we were speaking to him, but he would not listen to our voice. How much more will he afflict himself, if we tell him that the boy is dead?”
Nangyari na sa ika-pitong araw namatay ang bata. Natakot ang mga lingkod ni David na sabihin sa kaniya na patay na ang bata, dahil sinabi nila, “Tingnan mo, habang buhay pa ang bata kinausap natin siya at hindi siya nakinig sa ating boses. Baka kung ano gawin niya sa kanyang sarili kung sasabihin natin sa kaniyang patay na ang bata?!”
19 But when David had seen his servants whispering, he realized that the infant had died. And he said to his servants, “Is the child dead?” And they responded to him, “He is dead.”
Pero nang makita ni David na nagbubulungan ang kaniyang mga lingkod, naghinala si David na patay na ang bata. Sinabi niya sa kaniyang mga lingkod, “Patay na ba ang bata?” Sumagot sila, “Patay na siya.”
20 Therefore, David rose up from the ground. And he washed and anointed himself. And when he had changed his clothing, he entered the house of the Lord, and he worshiped. Then he went to his own house, and he asked them to place bread before him, and he ate.
Pagkatapos bumangon si David mula sa sahig at hinugasan ang kaniyang sarili, pinahiran ng langis ang kaniyang sarili at pinalitan ang kaniyang mga damit. Pumunta siya sa tabernakulo ni Yahweh at sumamba doon at pagkatapos bumalik sa kaniyang sariling palasyo. Nang hilingin niya ito, naghanda sila ng pagkain sa kanyang harapan at kumain siya.
21 But his servants said to him: “What is this word that you have done? You fasted and were weeping, on behalf of the infant, while he was still alive. But when the boy was dead, you arose and ate bread.”
Pagkatapos sinabi ng kaniyang mga lingkod sa kaniya, “Bakit mo ginawa ito? Nag-ayuno ka at umiyak para sa bata habang nabubuhay pa siya, pero nang namatay ang bata, bumangon ka at kumain.”
22 And he said: “While he was yet alive, I fasted and wept on behalf of the infant. For I said: Who knows if the Lord may perhaps give him to me, and let the infant live?
Sumagot si David, “Habang buhay pa ang bata nag-ayuno ako at umiyak. Sinabi ko, 'Sinong nakakaalam kung kaaawaan ako ni Yahweh o hindi na maaaring mabuhay ang bata?'
23 But now that he is dead, why should I fast? Would I be able to bring him back anymore? Instead, I will go to him. Yet truly, he will not return to me.”
Pero ngayon patay na siya, bakit pa ako mag-ayuno? Maibabalik ko ba siyang muli? Pupunta ako sa kaniya, pero hindi siya babalik sa akin.”
24 And David consoled his wife Bathsheba. And entering to her, he slept with her. And she bore a son, and he called his name Solomon, and the Lord loved him.
Inaliw ni David ang kaniyang asawang si Batsheba at pumunta sa kaniya at sumiping sa kaniya. Kaya nagkaanak siya ng isang batang lalaki at pinangalanang Solomon ang bata. Mahal siya ni Yahweh,
25 And he sent, by the hand of Nathan the prophet, and he called his name, Beloved of the Lord, because the Lord loved him.
kaya nagpadala siya ng salita sa pamamagitan ni Natan ang propeta para pangalanan siyang Jedidias, dahil mahal siya ni Yahweh.
26 And then Joab fought against Rabbah of the sons of Ammon, and he fought outside the royal city.
Ngayon, nakipaglaban si Joab sa Rabba, ang maharlikang lungsod ng mga tao ng Ammon at nabihag niya ang kuta nito.
27 And Joab sent messengers to David, saying: “I have struggled against Rabbah, and so the City of Waters will soon be seized.
Kaya nagpadala si Joab ng mga mensahero kay David at sinabi, “Nakipaglaban ako sa Rabba at nakuha ko ang ipunan ng tubig ng lungsod.
28 Now therefore, gather the remaining portion of the people together, and besiege the city and take it. Otherwise, when the city will have been laid waste by me, the victory will be ascribed to my name.”
Ngayon samakatwid sama-samang ipunin ang natitirang hukbo at magkampo laban sa lungsod at kunin ito, dahil kung kukunin ko ang lungsod, ipapangalan ito sa akin.”
29 And so David gathered together all the people, and he set out against Rabbah. And after he had fought, he seized it.
Kaya sama-samang tinipon ni David ang lahat ng kaniyang mga hukbo at pumunta sa Rabba; nakipaglaban siya sa lungsod at nabihag ito.
30 And he took the crown of their king from his head. The weight of it was a talent of gold, having the most precious gems. And it was placed upon the head of David. Moreover, he carried away the spoils of the city, which were very many.
Kinuha ni David ang korona mula sa ulo ng kanilang hari—tumitimbang ito ng isang talentong ginto at may isang mamahaling bato rito. Inilagay ang korona sa sariling ulo ni David. Pagkatapos inilabas niya ang nakuha sa panloloob ng lungsod na may malalaking kabuuan.
31 Also, bringing forth its people, he sawed them, and he drove over them with iron wagons, and he divided them with knives, and he dragged them through brick kilns. So he did to all the citizens of the sons of Ammon. And David returned, with the entire army, to Jerusalem.
Inilabas niya ang mga tao na nasa lungsod at pinilit silang magtrabaho gamit ang mga lagari, mga suyod na bakal at mga palakol; pinagtrabaho din niya sila sa tapahan ng laryo. Inatasan ni David ang lahat ng mga lungsod ng mga tao ng Ammon na gawin ang mga trabahong ito. Pagkatapos bumalik si David at ang buong hukbo sa Jerusalem.
