17 Be ni David yahi lɛ diɛŋtsɛ emaŋtsɛ shĩa lɛ nɔŋŋ lɛ, ekɛɛ gbalɔ Natan+ akɛ: “Naa! Mi lɛ, miyɛ tseneduru tsei atsũ mli,+ shi Yehowa kpaŋmɔ adeka lɛ ma mama tsũ mli.”+
2 Natan kɛɛ David akɛ: “Feemɔ nɔ fɛɛ nɔ ni yɔɔ otsui mli, ejaakɛ anɔkwa Nyɔŋmɔ lɛ kɛ bo yɛ.”
3 Nakai nyɔɔŋ lɛ mli nɔŋŋ lɛ, Nyɔŋmɔ kɛɛ Natan* akɛ:
4 “Yaa ni oyakɛɛ mitsulɔ David akɛ, ‘Nɔ ni Yehowa kɛɛ nɛ: “Jeee bo ji mɔ ni baama shĩa ohã mi ni mahi mli.+
5 Ejaakɛ kɛjɛ gbi nɔ ni mijie Israelbii lɛ kɛbashi ŋmɛnɛ lɛ, mihiko shĩa ko mli pɛŋ, shi mama tsũ mli sɔŋŋ miyaa mibaa yɛ.*+
6 Be ni mikɛ Israelbii lɛ fɛɛ nyiɛ lɛ mli fɛɛ lɛ, ani mikɛɛ Israel kojolɔi ni mihala akɛ amɛkwɛ mimaŋ lɛ ateŋ mɔ ko pɛŋ akɛ, ‘Mɛni hewɔ nyɛmaaa tseneduru tsei atsũ nyɛhãaa mi lɛ?’”’
7 “No hewɔ lɛ, agbɛnɛ, kɛɛmɔ mitsulɔ David akɛ, ‘Nɔ ni Yehowa, taiatsɛ lɛ kɛɛ nɛ: “Miŋɔ bo kɛjɛ hei ni kooloi yeɔ nii yɛ, kɛjɛ tooku lɛ sɛɛ, ni mifee bo mimaŋ Israel hiɛnyiɛlɔ.+
8 Ni maye mabua bo yɛ* he fɛɛ he ni oyaa,+ ni magbe ohenyɛlɔi lɛ fɛɛ yɛ ohiɛ;*+ ni mahã oná gbɛ́i tamɔ shikpɔŋ lɛ nɔ gbɔmɛi wuji ni yɔɔ gbɛ́i lɛ.+
9 Mahala he ko mahã mimaŋ Israel ni mikɛ amɛ baaya jɛmɛ, ni amɛbaahi jɛmɛ ni mɔ ko gbaŋ amɛnaa dɔŋŋ; ni gbɔmɛi fɔji waŋ amɛ yi* dɔŋŋ tamɔ bɔ ni amɛfee amɛ tsutsu lɛ,+

11 “‘“Kɛji ogbii lɛ ba naagbee ni ogbo lɛ,* matee oseshinyo* ko shi yɛ osɛɛ, ni ji obihii lɛ eko,+ ni mahã emaŋtsɛyeli lɛ adamɔ shi shiŋŋ.+

15 Natan kɛɛ David wiemɔi nɛɛ fɛɛ kɛ ninaa tso muu lɛ fɛɛ.
16 Kɛkɛ ni Maŋtsɛ David ba ni ebata Yehowa hiɛ ni ekɛɛ: “Ao, Yehowa Nyɔŋmɔ, namɔ po ji mi? Ni mɛni ji mishĩa lɛ po ni okɛ mi ebashɛ he ni okɛ mi eshɛ nɛɛ?+
