2 Samuel 11

DOUAI-RHEIMS	SMITH VAN DYKE
1 And it came to pass at the return of the year, at the time when kings go forth to war, that David sent Joab and his servants with him, and all Israel, and they spoiled the children of Ammon, and besieged Rabba: but David remained in Jerusalem.	1 وكان عند تمام السنة في وقت خروج الملوك ان داود ارسل يوآب وعبيده معه وجميع اسرائيل فاخربوا بني عمون وحاصروا ربّة. واما داود فاقام في اورشليم.
2 In the mean time it happened that David arose from his bed after noon, and walked upon the roof of the king's house: and he saw from the roof of his house a woman washing herself, over against him: and the woman was very beautiful.	2 وكان في وقت المساء ان داود قام عن سريره وتمشى على سطح بيت الملك فرأى من على السطح امرأة تستحمّ. وكانت المرأة جميلة المنظر جدا.
3 And the king sent, and inquired who the woman was. And it was told him, that she was Bethsabee the daughter of Eliam, the wife of Urias the Hethite.	3 فارسل داود وسأل عن المرأة فقال واحد أليست هذه بثشبع بنت اليعام امرأة اوريا الحثّي.
4 And David sent messengers, and took her, and she came in to him, and he slept with her: and presently she was purified from her uncleanness:	4 فارسل داود رسلا واخذها فدخلت اليه فاضطجع معها وهي مطهّرة من طمثها. ثم رجعت الى بيتها.
5 And she returned to her house having conceived. And she sent and told David, and said: I have conceived.	5 وحبلت المرأة فارسلت واخبرت داود وقالت اني حبلى.
6 And David sent to Joab, saying: Send me Urias the Hethite. And Joab sent Urias to David.	6 فارسل داود الى يوآب يقول ارسل اليّ اوريا الحثي. فارسل يوآب اوريا الى داود.
7 And Urias came to David. And David asked how Joab did, and the people, and how the war was carried on.	7 فأتى اوريا اليه فسأل داود عن سلامة يوآب وسلامة الشعب ونجاح الحرب.
8 And David said to Urias: Go into thy house, and wash thy feet. And Urias went out from the king's house, and there went out after him a mess of meat from the king.	8 وقال داود لاوريا انزل الى بيتك واغسل رجليك. فخرج اوريا من بيت الملك وخرجت وراءه حصة من عند الملك.
9 But Urias slept before the gate of the king's house, with the other servants of his lord, and went not down to his own house.	9 ونام اوريا على باب بيت الملك مع جميع عبيد سيده ولم ينزل الى بيته.
10 And it was told David by some that said: Urias went not to his house. And David said to Urias: Didst thou not come from thy journey? why didst thou not go down to thy house?	10 فاخبروا داود قائلين لم ينزل اوريا الى بيته. فقال داود لاوريا اما جئت من السفر. فلماذا لم تنزل الى بيتك.
11 And Urias said to David: The ark of God and Israel and Juda dwell in tents, and my lord Joab and the servants of my lord abide upon the face of the earth: and shall I go into my house, to eat and to drink, and to sleep with my wife? By thy welfare and by the welfare of thy soul I will not do this thing.	11 فقال اوريا لداود ان التابوت واسرائيل ويهوذا ساكنون في الخيام وسيدي يوآب وعبيد سيدي نازلون على وجه الصحراء وانا آتي الى بيتي لآكل واشرب واضطجع مع امرأتي. وحياتك وحياة نفسك لا افعل هذا الامر.
12 Then David said to Urias: Tarry here to day, and to morrow I will send thee away. Urias tarried in Jerusalem that day and the next.	12 فقال داود لاوريا اقم هنا اليوم ايضا وغدا اطلقك. فاقام اوريا في اورشليم ذلك اليوم وغده.
13 And David called him to eat and to drink before him, and he made him drunk: and he went out in the evening, and slept on his couch with the servants of his lord, and went not down into his house.	13 ودعاه داود فاكل امامه وشرب واسكره. وخرج عند المساء ليضطجع في مضجعه مع عبيد سيده والى بيته لم ينزل
14 And when the morning was come, David wrote a letter to Joab: and sent it by the hand of Urias,	14 وفي الصباح كتب داود مكتوبا الى يوآب وارسله بيد اوريا.
15 Writing in the letter: Set ye Urias in the front of the battle, where the fight is strongest: and leave ye him, that he may be wounded and die.	15 وكتب في المكتوب يقول. اجعلوا اوريا في وجه الحرب الشديدة وارجعوا من ورائه فيضرب ويموت.
16 Wherefore as Joab was besieging the city, he put Urias in the place where he knew the bravest men were.	16 وكان في محاصرة يوآب المدينة انه جعل اوريا في الموضع الذي علم ان رجال البأس فيه.
17 And the men coming out of the city, fought against Joab, and there fell some of the people of the servants of David, and Urias the Hethite was killed also.	17 فخرج رجال المدينة وحاربوا يوآب فسقط بعض الشعب من عبيد داود ومات اوريا الحثّي ايضا.
18 Then Joab sent, and told David all things concerning the battle.	18 فارسل يوآب واخبر داود بجميع امور الحرب.
19 And he charged the messenger, saying: When thou hast told all the words of the battle to the king,	19 واوصى الرسول قائلا عندما تفرغ من الكلام مع الملك عن جميع امور الحرب
20 If thou see him to be angry, and he shall say: Why did you approach so near to the wall to fight? knew you not that many darts are thrown from above off the wall?	20 فان اشتعل غضب الملك وقال لك لماذا دنوتم من المدينة للقتال. اما علمتم انهم يرمون من على السور.
21 Who killed Abimelech the son of Jerobaal? did not a woman cast a piece of a millstone upon him from the wall, and slew him in Thebes? Why did you go near the wall? Thou shalt say: Thy servant Urias the Hethite is also slain.	21 من قتل ابيمالك بن يربوشث. ألم ترمه امرأة بقطعة رحى من على السور فمات في تاباص. لماذا دنوتم من السور. فقل قد مات عبدك اوريا الحثي ايضا
22 So the messenger departed, and came and told David all that Joab had commanded him.	22 فذهب الرسول ودخل واخبر داود بكل ما ارسله فيه يوآب.
23 And the messenger said to David: The men prevailed against us, and they came out to us into the field: and we vigorously charged and pursued them even to the gate of the city.	23 وقال الرسول لداود قد تجبر علينا القوم وخرجوا الينا الى الحقل فكنا عليهم الى مدخل الباب.
24 And the archers shot their arrows at thy servants from off the wall above: and some of the king's servants are slain, and thy servant Urias the Hethite is also dead.	24 فرمى الرماة عبيدك من على السور فمات البعض من عبيد الملك ومات عبدك اوريا الحثي ايضا.
25 And David said to the messenger: Thus shalt thou say to Joab: Let not this thing discourage thee: for various is the event of war: and sometimes one, sometimes another is consumed by the sword: encourage thy warriors against The city, and exhort them that thou mayest overthrow it.	25 فقال داود للرسول هكذا تقول ليوآب. لا يسوء في عينيك هذا الامر لان السيف ياكل هذا وذاك. شدد قتالك على المدينة واخربها. وشدّده
26 And the wife of Urias heard that Urias her husband was dead, and she mourned for him.	26 فلما سمعت امرأة اوريا انه قد مات اوريا رجلها ندبت بعلها.
27 And the mourning being over, David sent and brought her into his house, and she became his wife, and she bore him a son: and this thing which David had done, was displeasing to the Lord.	27 ولما مضت المناحة ارسل داود وضمها الى بيته وصارت له امرأة وولدت له ابنا. واما الامر الذي فعله داود فقبح في عيني الرب
