14 Kɛkɛ ni Yehowa kɛ gbele hela+ ba Israel nɔ, ni Israelbii lɛ ateŋ mɛi 70,000 gboi.+ 15 Agbɛnɛ hu, anɔkwa Nyɔŋmɔ lɛ tsu ŋwɛibɔfo ko kɛtee Yerusalem koni eyakpãtã Yerusalem hiɛ; shi be ni eyaakpãtã maŋ lɛ hiɛ nɔŋŋ, kɛkɛ ni Yehowa na ni eshwa ehe* yɛ amanehulu lɛ hewɔ,+ ni ekɛɛ ŋwɛibɔfo ni yaakpãtã maŋ lɛ hiɛ lɛ akɛ: “Efa!+ Agbɛnɛ suu onine.” No mli lɛ, Yehowa bɔfo lɛ damɔ Ornan,+ Yebusnyo+ lɛ, ŋmaagbeemɔhe lɛ masɛi.
16 Be ni David wó ehiɛ nɔ lɛ, ena Yehowa bɔfo lɛ damɔ shikpɔŋ lɛ kɛ ŋwɛi teŋ ni egbala eklante+ ehiɛ edɛŋ ni ekpã mli yɛ Yerusalem nɔ. Amrɔ nɔŋŋ ni David kɛ onukpai lɛ ni no mli lɛ ekɛ amɛ fɛɛ bumɔ kpekpe+ lɛ kɛ amɛhiɛ bumɔ shi.+ 17 David kɛɛ anɔkwa Nyɔŋmɔ lɛ akɛ: “Ani jeee mi mifã ni akane maŋbii lɛ?

18 Kɛkɛ ni Yehowa bɔfo lɛ kɛɛ Gad+ koni eyakɛɛ David ni ekwɔ kɛya Ornan, Yebusnyo lɛ, ŋmaagbeemɔhe lɛ koni eyama afɔleshaa latɛ ehã Yehowa yɛ jɛmɛ.+ 19 No hewɔ lɛ, David kwɔ kɛtee yɛ Gad wiemɔ ni ewie yɛ Yehowa gbɛ́i mli lɛ naa. 20 Nakai beiaŋ lɛ, Ornan tsɔ ehe ni ena ŋwɛibɔfo lɛ, ni ebihii ejwɛ lɛ ni kɛ lɛ yɔɔ jɛmɛ lɛ yatee amɛhe.
