2 Samuel 11
Maori Bible
11 A, i te takanga o te tau, i te wa ano e haere ai nga kingi ki te whawhai, na ka unga e Rawiri a Ioapa ratou ko ana tangata, ko Iharaira katoa; a huna iho e ratou nga tama a Amona, whakapaea ana a Rapa. Ko Rawiri ia i noho ki Hiruharama.
2 A, i te mea ka ahiahi, na ka maranga ake a Rawiri i tona moenga, a haereere ana i runga i te tuanui o te whare o te kingi: na ka kitea iho e ia i te tuanui tetahi wahine e kaukau ana; he ataahua rawa ano te wahine ki te titiro atu.
3 Na ka tono tangata te kingi, a ka ui mo taua wahine. Na ko te meatanga, Ehara ianei tenei i a Patehepa tamahine a Eriama, ko te wahine ia a Uria Hiti.
4 Na ka unga etahi karere e Rawiri ki te tiki i a ia; a ka haere mai ia ki a ia; a takoto tahi ana raua; kua oti hoki tona poke te pure, a hoki ana ki tona whare.
5 Na ka hapu te wahine, a ka tono tangata ki a Rawiri, ka mea, Kua hapu ahau.
6 Na ka tono tangata a Rawiri ki a Ioapa, ka mea, Tena a Uria Hiti tonoa mai ki ahau. Na tonoa ana e Ioapa a Uria ki a Rawiri.
7 A, i te taenga mai o Uria ki a ia, ka ui a Rawiri i pehea a Ioapa, i pehea hoki te iwi, a i pehea te whawhai.
8 Na ka mea a Rawiri ki a Uria, Haere ki raro, ki tou whare ki te horoi i ou waewae. Na ka puta a Uria i te whare o te kingi; a i maua i muri i a ia tetahi kai a te kingi.
9 Otiia moe ana a Uria ki te tatau o te whare o te kingi i roto i nga tangata katoa a tona ariki, kihai hoki i haere ki raro, ki tona whare.
10 A ka korerotia te korero ki a Rawiri, Kihai a Uria i haere ki raro, ki tona whare; na ka mea a Rawiri ki a Uria, He teka ianei katahi ano koe ka tae mai i te haere? he aha koe te haere ai ki raro, ki tou whare?
11 Na ka mea a Uria ki a Rawiri, Kei roto te aaka i te tihokahoka, me Iharaira, me Hura; kei te mata ano o te parae toku ariki, a Ioapa ratou ko nga tangata a toku ariki e noho ana; kia haere koia ahau ki toku whare ki te kai, ki te inu, ki te tako to ki taku wahine? e ora ana koe, e ora ana hoki tou wairua, e kore tenei mea e meatia e ahau.
12 Na ka mea a Rawiri ki a Uria, E noho ki konei i tenei ra ano, a apopo ahau unga ai i a koe. Heoi, noho ana a Uria i taua ra, i te aonga ake ano, ki Hiruharama.
13 Na ka karangatia ia e Rawiri, a kai ana; a meinga ana e ia kia haurangi: a i te ahiahi ka puta ki waho ki te takoto ki tona takotoranga i roto i nga tangata a tona ariki, kihai hoki i haere ki raro, ki tona whare.
14 Na i te ata ka tuhituhia he pukapuka e Rawiri ki a Ioapa, o tonoa ana kia kawea e Uria.
15 I tuhituhi hoki ia ki te pukapuka, i mea, Me hoatu e koutou a Uria ki mua rawa, ki te wahi e nui rawa ana te whawhai, ka hoki ai i muri i a ia, kia patua ai ia, kia mate ai.
16 Na i a Ioapa e whakapae ana i te pa, ka hoatu e ia a Uria ki te wahi i mohio ai ia kei reira nga toa.
17 Na, ko te putanga atu o nga tangata o te pa ki te whawhai ki a Ioapa, ka hinga etahi o te iwi, etahi o nga tangata ake a Rawiri; i mate ano a Uria Hiti.
18 Katahi a Ioapa ka tono tangata hei korero ki a Rawiri i nga mea katoa o te whawhai.
19 I ako ano ia te karere, i mea, E poto i a koe nga mea katoa o te whawhai te korero ki te kingi;
20 Na ki te ara te riri o te kingi, a ka mea ia ki a koe, He aha koutou i whakatata rawa ai ki te pa tatau ai? kahore ianei koutou i mohio ka kopere mai ratou i te taiepa?
21 Na wai a Apimereke tama a Ierupehete i patu? he teka ianei na te wahine i maka te wahi o runga o te kohatu huri ki runga ki a ia i te taiepa, a mate iho ai ki Tepehe? he aha koutou i whakatata atu ai ki te taiepa? Na mea atu, Kua mate ano tau po nonga, a Uria Hiti.
22 Heoi haere ana te karere, a ka tae, korerotia ana e ia ki a Rawiri nga mea katoa i unga ai ia e Ioapa.
23 I mea hoki te karere ki a Rawiri, I kaha rawa mai aua tangata ki a matou, a puta mai ana ki a matou ki te parae. Na whakaekea atu ana e matou, a tae noa ki te kuwaha o te keti.
24 Na ko te koperenga mai a nga kaikopere i te taiepa ki au tangata, mate iho etahi o nga tangata a te kingi; ko tau pononga hoki, ko Uria Hiti kua mate.
25 Katahi ka mea a Rawiri ki te karere, Kia penei tau ki atu ki a Ioapa, Kei he tenei mea ki tou whakaaro, he kai noa iho hoki ta te hoari i tetahi, i tetahi: kia kaha tau whawhai ki te pa, whakangaromia. Mau ano ia e whakatenatena.
26 A, i te rongonga o te wahine a Uria kua mate tana tahu a Uria, ka tangihia e ia tana tahu.
27 A ka pahemo te tangihanga, ka tono tangata a Rawiri ki te tiki i a ia ki tona whare, a ka waiho hei wahine. mana, a ka whanau ta raua tama. Otiia i kino ki ta Ihowa titro taua mea i mea ai a Rawiri.
2 Samuel 11

2 Samuel 11

David and Bathsheba
11 In the spring,(A) at the time when kings go off to war, David sent Joab(B) out with the king’s men and the whole Israelite army.(C) They destroyed the Ammonites and besieged Rabbah.(D) But David remained in Jerusalem.
2 One evening David got up from his bed and walked around on the roof(E) of the palace. From the roof he saw(F) a woman bathing. The woman was very beautiful, 3 and David sent someone to find out about her. The man said, “She is Bathsheba,(G) the daughter of Eliam(H) and the wife of Uriah(I) the Hittite.” 4 Then David sent messengers to get her.(J) She came to him, and he slept(K) with her. (Now she was purifying herself from her monthly uncleanness.)(L) Then she went back home. 5 The woman conceived and sent word to David, saying, “I am pregnant.”
6 So David sent this word to Joab: “Send me Uriah(M) the Hittite.” And Joab sent him to David. 7 When Uriah came to him, David asked him how Joab was, how the soldiers were and how the war was going. 8 Then David said to Uriah, “Go down to your house and wash your feet.”(N) So Uriah left the palace, and a gift from the king was sent after him. 9 But Uriah slept at the entrance to the palace with all his master’s servants and did not go down to his house.
10 David was told, “Uriah did not go home.” So he asked Uriah, “Haven’t you just come from a military campaign? Why didn’t you go home?”
11 Uriah said to David, “The ark(O) and Israel and Judah are staying in tents,[a] and my commander Joab and my lord’s men are camped in the open country. How could I go to my house to eat and drink and make love(P) to my wife? As surely as you live, I will not do such a thing!”
12 Then David said to him, “Stay here one more day, and tomorrow I will send you back.” So Uriah remained in Jerusalem that day and the next. 13 At David’s invitation, he ate and drank with him, and David made him drunk. But in the evening Uriah went out to sleep on his mat among his master’s servants; he did not go home.
14 In the morning David wrote a letter(Q) to Joab and sent it with Uriah. 15 In it he wrote, “Put Uriah out in front where the fighting is fiercest. Then withdraw from him so he will be struck down(R) and die.(S)”
16 So while Joab had the city under siege, he put Uriah at a place where he knew the strongest defenders were. 17 When the men of the city came out and fought against Joab, some of the men in David’s army fell; moreover, Uriah the Hittite died.
18 Joab sent David a full account of the battle. 19 He instructed the messenger: “When you have finished giving the king this account of the battle, 20 the king’s anger may flare up, and he may ask you, ‘Why did you get so close to the city to fight? Didn’t you know they would shoot arrows from the wall? 21 Who killed Abimelek(T) son of Jerub-Besheth[b]? Didn’t a woman drop an upper millstone on him from the wall,(U) so that he died in Thebez? Why did you get so close to the wall?’ If he asks you this, then say to him, ‘Moreover, your servant Uriah the Hittite is dead.’”
22 The messenger set out, and when he arrived he told David everything Joab had sent him to say. 23 The messenger said to David, “The men overpowered us and came out against us in the open, but we drove them back to the entrance of the city gate. 24 Then the archers shot arrows at your servants from the wall, and some of the king’s men died. Moreover, your servant Uriah the Hittite is dead.”
25 David told the messenger, “Say this to Joab: ‘Don’t let this upset you; the sword devours one as well as another. Press the attack against the city and destroy it.’ Say this to encourage Joab.”
26 When Uriah’s wife heard that her husband was dead, she mourned for him. 27 After the time of mourning(V) was over, David had her brought to his house, and she became his wife and bore him a son. But the thing David had done displeased(W) the Lord.
