dooja samuel 24:1-25
24 ik vaar fir yahovah da gussa izraeel utte bharrak utthya+ jado kise ne daood nu ohna khilaf uksa ke keha: “jaah, izraeel atey yahudah di ginti kar.”+
2 is layi raje ne fauj de sainapati yoab+ nu, jo os de naal si, keha: “daan to lai ke ber-shaba+ tak izraeel de sare gota vich jaah atey lokaa de naa darj kar taaki mainu lokaa di ginti pata lagge.”
3 eh sunn ke yoab ne raje nu keha: “he mere prabhu atey maharaj, tera parmeshwar yahovah lokaa di ginti 100 guna vadhave atey tu apni akkhi eh hunda dekhe. par mera maharaj eh kamm kyo karna chahunda hai?”
4 par yoab atey fauj de mukhiya nu raje di gall agge jhukna pya. is layi yoab atey fauj de mukhi izraeel de lokaa de naa darj karan layi raje aggyo chale gaye.+
5 ohna ne yardan paar kar ke aroer+ vich dera laya jo vaadi de vichkar sheher de sajje pase* si. fir oh gaadiya de ilake val atey os to baad yazer+ chale gaye.
6 is to baad oh gilaad+ atey tahtim-hadshi de ilake vich gaye atey fir daan-yaan to hunde hoye sidon+ nu gaye.
7 baad vich oh sor de kile+ nu gaye atey fir hiviya+ atey canaaniya de sare shehera nu gaye atey akheer oh ber-shaba+ pahunche jo yahudah de negeb+ vich si.
8 is tarha oh sare desh vich gaye atey nau mahineya te 20 dina baad yarushlam murr aaye.
9 fir yoab ne raje nu ohna lokaa di ginti dassi jinha de naa darj keete gaye san. talvara naal lais izraeeli yodhya di ginti 8,00,000 si atey yahudah de aadmiya di 5,00,000 si.+
10 par jad daood ne lokaa di ginti kar layi, taa os di zameer* os nu lahnta paaun laggi.+ fir daood ne yahovah nu keha: “mai eh kamm kar ke vadda paap keeta hai.+ hun he yahovah, kirpa kar ke apne sevak di galti maaf kar de+ kyoki mai bahut vaddi moorkhta keeti hai.”+
11 jad daood savere jaldi utthya, taa gaad+ nabi yani daood de darshi nu yahovah da eh sandesh milya:
12 “jaah atey daood nu keh, ‘yahovah eh kehnda hai: “mai tainu tinn biptava dassda ha. ihna vicho ik chun lai te mai ohi tere ’te lyaavanga.”’”+
13 is layi gaad ne daood kol ja ke keha: “kee tere desh vich satt sala layi kaal pave?+ ja kee tainu tinn mahineya layi apne dushmana to bhajjna pave jo tera pichha kar rahe honge?+ ja kee tere desh utte tinn dina layi mahamari aave?+ hun dhyaan naal soch ke dass ki mai apne bhejan vale nu kee javab dya.”
14 is layi daood ne gaad nu keha: “mai barra dukhi ha. kirpa kar ke sanu yahovah de hath vich pai lain de+ kyoki oh barra dayavaan hai;+ par mainu insaan de hath vich na pain de.”+
15 fir yahovah ne saver to lai ke tai keete same tak izraeel ’te mahamari ghali+ jis karke daan to lai ke ber-shaba+ tak 70,000 lok maare gaye.+
16 jado doot ne yarushlam da naash karan layi apna hath vadhaya, taa yahovah nu is bipta karke afsos* hoya+ atey os ne lokaa ’te bipta liaaun vale doot nu keha: “bass bahut ho gaya! hun apna hath rok lai.” os same yahovah da doot yaboosi+ aravnah de pirr*+ de laage si.
17 jad daood ne os doot nu dekhya jo lokaa nu maar reha si, taa os ne yahovah nu keha: “paap taa mai keeta hai, galti meri hai; par ihna bheda+ da kee kasoor hai? kirpa kar ke apna hath mere atey mere pita de gharane khilaf utha.”+
18 is karke os din gaad daood kol gaya atey os nu keha: “utaah jaah atey yahovah layi yaboosi aravnah de pirr vich ik vedi banaa.”+
19 daood gaad di gall mann ke utaah gaya jive yahovah ne hukam ditta si.
20 jad aravnah ne hetha dekhya ki raja atey os de sevak os val aa rahe san, taa aravnah ose vele gaya atey raje agge godya bhaar baith ke sir nivaya.
21 aravnah ne puchhya: “he mere prabhu atey maharaj, tu apne sevak kol kyo aaya hai?” daood ne javab ditta: “mai yahovah vaste ik vedi banaun layi tere kolo pirr khareedan aaya ha taaki lokaa utte aayi mahamari ruk jave.”+
22 aravnah ne daood nu keha: “mera prabhu atey maharaj pirr nu lai lave atey jo os nu changa lagge,* os di bhet charha lave. aah rahe hom-bali layi pashu atey balan vaste fala* te pashuaa da joola.
23 he maharaj, mai aravnah, raje nu eh sabh kujh dinda ha.” fir aravnah ne raje nu keha: “tera parmeshwar yahovah tere ’te meher kare.”
24 par raje ne aravnah nu keha: “nahi, mai eh sabh mull lavanga. mai apne parmeshwar yahovah nu oh hom-baliya nahi charhavanga jinha di mainu koi keemat nahi chukauni payi.” is layi daood ne 50 shekel* chandi de ke pirr atey pashu khareed laye.+
25 atey daood ne uthe yahovah layi ik vedi banayi+ atey hom-baliya te shanti-baliya charhaiya. fir yahovah ne desh layi keeti duhayi nu sunn lya+ atey izraeel utte aayi mahamari ruk gayi.
