< 2 Kings 22 >

1 Josiah was eight years old when he began to reign, and he reigned thirty-one years in Jerusalem. And his mother's name was Jedidah the daughter of Adaiah of Bozkath.
Yosiyaas yeroo mootii taʼetti nama waggaa saddeetii ture; Yerusaalem keessa taaʼees waggaa soddomii tokko bulche. Maqaan haadha isaa Yediidaa dha; isheenis intala Adaayaa nama biyya Boozqaatii ti.
2 And he did that which was right in the eyes of Jehovah, and walked in all the way of David his father, and did not turn aside to the right hand or to the left.
Inni fuula Waaqayyoo duratti waan qajeelaa ni hojjete; utuu mirgatti yookaan bitaatti hin gorinis karaa abbaa isaa Daawit irra deeme.
3 And it came to pass, in the eighteenth year of king Josiah, that the king sent Shaphan, the son of Azaliah the son of Meshullam, the scribe, to the house of Jehovah, saying,
Yosiyaas mootichi bara mootummaa isaa keessa waggaa kudha saddeettaffaatti akkana jedhee Shaafaan ilma Azaliyaa ilma Meshulaam barreessaa sana gara mana qulqullummaa Waaqayyootti erge:
4 Go up to Hilkiah the high priest that he may sum the money which is brought into the house of Jehovah, which the keepers of the threshold have gathered of the people.
“Gara Hilqiyaa lubicha ol aanaatti ol baʼiitii akka inni maallaqa gara mana qulqullummaa Waaqayyootti fidame kan warri balbala eegan namoota irraa walitti qaban sana lakkaaʼu godhi.
5 And let them deliver it into the hand of the workmen who have the oversight of the house of Jehovah. And let them give it to the workmen who are in the house of Jehovah, to repair the broken parts of the house,
Maallaqni kunis namoota akka hojii mana qulqullummaa toʼataniif muudamanitti imaanaa haa kennamu. Namoonni kunneen immoo warra mana qulqullummaa Waaqayyoo haaromsaniif jechuunis,
6 to the carpenters, and to the builders, and to the masons, and for buying timber and hewn stone to repair the house.
warra muka soofaniif, warra mana ijaaranii fi warra dhagaa soofaniif haa kaffalan. Akkasumas mana qulqullummaa haaromsuuf mukaa fi dhagaa soofame ittiin haa bitan.
7 However there was no reckoning made with them of the money that was delivered into their hand, for they dealt faithfully.
Isaan garuu sababii amanamummaadhaan hojjetaniif, maallaqa imaanaa isaanitti kenname sana toʼachuun hin barbaachisu.”
8 And Hilkiah the high priest said to Shaphan the scribe, I have found the book of the law in the house of Jehovah. And Hilkiah delivered the book to Shaphan, and he read it.
Hilqiyaa lubichi ol aanaan sunis, Shaafaan barreessaa sanaan, “Ani mana qulqullummaa Waaqayyoo keessatti Kitaaba Seeraa argeen jira” jedhe. Kitaabichas Shaafaanitti kenne; Shaafaan immoo kitaaba sana ni dubbise.
9 And Shaphan the scribe came to the king, and brought the king word again, and said, Thy servants have emptied out the money that was found in the house, and have delivered it into the hand of the workmen who have the oversight of the house of Jehovah.
Ergasiis Shaafaan gara mootichaa dhaqee, “Qondaaltonni kee maallaqa mana qulqullummaa Waaqayyoo keessa ture baasanii hojjettootaa fi namoota hojii mana qulqullummaa toʼatanitti imaanaa kennaniiru” jedhee hime.
10 And Shaphan the scribe told the king, saying, Hilkiah the priest has delivered to me a book. And Shaphan read it before the king.
Shaafaan barreessaan sun, “Hilqiyaa lubichi kitaaba tokko natti kenneera” jedhee mootichatti hime. Shaafaanis fuula mootichaa duratti kitaaba sana dubbise.
11 And it came to pass, when the king had heard the words of the book of the law, that he tore his clothes.
Mootichis dubbii Kitaaba Seeraa sana dhageenyaan uffata isaa ni tarsaase.
12 And the king commanded Hilkiah the priest, and Ahikam the son of Shaphan, and Achbor the son of Micaiah, and Shaphan the scribe, and Asaiah the king's servant, saying,
Innis ajaja kana Hilqiyaa lubichatti, Ahiiqaam ilma Shaafaanitti, Akboor ilma Miikaayaatti, Shaafaan barreessichaa fi Asaayaa tajaajilaa mootichaatti ni kenne;
13 Go ye, inquire of Jehovah for me, and for the people, and for all Judah, concerning the words of this book that is found, for great is the wrath of Jehovah that is kindled against us, because our fathers have not hearkened to the words of this book to do according to all that which is written concerning us.
“Dhaqaatii waaʼee waan kitaaba argame kana keessatti barreeffamee anaaf, sabaa fi Yihuudaa hundaaf Waaqayyoon gaafadhaa. Sababii warri nuun duraa dubbii kitaabaa kanaatiif hin ajajaminiif dheekkamsi Waaqayyoo guddaan nutti bobaʼeera; isaan akka waan waaʼee keenya barreeffame sana hundaatti hin jiraanneetii.”
14 So Hilkiah the priest, and Ahikam, and Achbor, and Shaphan, and Asaiah, went to Huldah the prophetess, the wife of Shallum the son of Tikvah, the son of Harhas, keeper of the wardrobe (now she dwelt in Jerusalem in the second quarter), and they conversed with her.
Hilqiyaa lubichi, Ahiiqaam, Akboor, Shaafaanii fi Asaayaan Huldaanaa raajittii gaafachuu dhaqan. Huldaanaan kun niitii Shaluum ilma Tiqwaa, ilma Harhaas kan eegduu uffataa ture sanaa ti. Isheenis Yerusaalem keessa Aanaa Lammaffaa keessa jiraatti turte.
15 And she said to them, Thus says Jehovah, the God of Israel: Tell ye the man who sent you to me,
Isheenis akkana isaaniin jette; “Waaqayyo Waaqni Israaʼel akkana jedha: Namicha natti isin erge sanatti akkana jedhaa himaa.
16 Thus says Jehovah, Behold, I will bring evil upon this place, and upon the inhabitants of it, even all the words of the book which the king of Judah has read.
‘Waaqayyo akkana jedha: Ani akkuma waan kitaaba mootichi Yihuudaa dubbise sana keessatti barreeffame hundaatti iddoo kanaa fi saba isaatti badiisa nan fida.
17 Because they have forsaken me, and have burned incense to other gods, that they might provoke me to anger with all the work of their hands, therefore my wrath shall be kindled against this place, and it shall not be quenched.
Sababii isaan na dhiisanii waaqota biraatiif ixaana aarsuudhaan waaqota tolfamoo harki isaanii tolche hundaan dheekkamsaaf na kakaasaniif, dheekkamsi koo iddoo kana irratti ni bobaʼa; hin dhaamus.’
18 But to the king of Judah, who sent you to inquire of Jehovah, thus shall ye say to him, Thus says Jehovah, the God of Israel: As concerning the words which thou have heard,
Mootii Yihuudaa kan akka isin Waaqayyoon gaafattaniif isin erge sanatti akkana jedhaatii himaa; ‘Waaʼee dubbii ati dhageesse sanaa, Waaqayyo Waaqni Israaʼel akkana jedha;
19 because thy heart was tender, and thou humbled thyself before Jehovah when thou heard what I spoke against this place, and against the inhabitants of it, that they should become a desolation and a curse, and have torn thy clothes, and wept before me, I also have heard thee, says Jehovah.
“Sababii ati yeroo waan ani waaʼee iddoo kanaatii fi waaʼee saba isaa akka isaan abaaramanii barbadeeffaman waan hamaa dubbadhe dhageessetti garaan kee tuqamee fuula Waaqayyoo duratti gad of qabdeef, sababii uffata kee tarsaaftee fuula koo duratti boosseef, ani si dhagaʼeera” jedha Waaqayyo.
20 Therefore, behold, I will gather thee to thy fathers, and thou shall be gathered to thy grave in peace, neither shall thine eyes see all the evil which I will bring upon this place. And they brought the king word again.
Kanaafuu ani abbootii kee biratti walittin si qaba; atis nagumaan awwaalamta. Waan hamaa ani iddoo kana irratti fiduuf jiru hunda iji kee hin argu.’” Isaanis deebii ishee fudhatanii gara mootichaatti deebiʼan.
