< 1 Kings 13 >
1 Then a man of God came from Judah by the order of the Lord to Beth-el, where Jeroboam was by the altar, burning offerings.
Utuma Yerobiʼaam aarsaa dhiʼeessuuf iddoo aarsaa bira dhaabachaa jiruu namni Waaqaa tokko ajaja Waaqayyootiin Yihuudaadhaa baʼee Beetʼeel dhufe.
2 And by the order of the Lord he made an outcry against the altar, saying, O altar, altar, the Lord has said, From the seed of David will come a child, named Josiah, and on you he will put to death the priests of the high places, who are burning offerings on you, and men's bones will be burned on you.
Innis ajaja Waaqayyootiin iddoo aarsaa sanaan mormuudhaan iyyee akkana jedhe; “Yaa iddoo aarsaa, yaa iddoo aarsaa! Waaqayyo akkana jedha; ‘Kunoo ilmi Yosiyaas jedhamu tokko mana Daawit keessaa ni dhalata. Innis luboota iddoo sagadaa kan gaarran irraa warra amma asitti aarsaa dhiʼeessaa jiran kanneen aarsaa godhee sirratti ni dhiʼeessa; lafeen namaas sirratti ni gubama.’”
3 The same day he gave them a sign, saying, This is the sign which the Lord has given: See, the altar will be broken and the burned waste on it overturned.
Namni Waaqaa sunis gaafasuma akkana jedhee mallattoo kenne; “Mallattoon Waaqayyo dubbate kanaa dha; kunoo iddoon aarsaa gargar baqaqa; daaraan isa irra jirus gad jiga.”
4 Then the king, hearing the man of God crying out against the altar at Beth-el, put out his hand from the altar, saying, Take him prisoner. And his hand, stretched out against him, became dead, and he had no power of pulling it back.
Yerobiʼaam mootichi yommuu waan namni Waaqaa sun iyyee iddoo aarsaa kan Beetʼeel sanaan mormuudhaan dubbate dhagaʼetti iddoo aarsaa biraa namichatti harka qabee, “Isa qabaa!” jedhe. Harki inni namichatti qabe sun garuu gogee hafe; innis harka isaa deebifachuu hin dandeenye.
5 And the altar was broken and the burned waste on it overturned; this was the sign which the man of God had given by the word of the Lord.
Iddoon aarsaa sunis akkuma mallattoo namni Waaqaa sun dubbii Waaqayyootiin kenne sanaatti gargari baqaqee daaraan isa irra tures lafatti gad jige.
6 Then the king made answer and said to the man of God, Make a prayer now for the grace of the Lord your God, and for me, that my hand may be made well. And in answer to the prayer of the man of God, the king's hand was made well again, as it was before.
Mootichi nama Waaqaa sanaan, “Maaloo akka harki koo deebiʼee naa fayyuuf Waaqayyo Waaqa kee jabeessii naa kadhadhu.” Kanaafuu namni Waaqaa sun Waaqayyoon jabeessee kadhateef; harki mootichaas fayyee akkuma duraatti deebiʼeef.
7 And the king said to the man of God, Come with me to my house for food and rest, and I will give you a reward.
Mootichi nama Waaqaa sanaan, “Kottu na wajjin mana kootti galiitii waa nyaadhu; anis kennaa siifin kennaa” jedhe.
8 But the man of God said to the king, Even if you gave me half of all you have, I would not go in with you, and I would not take food or a drink of water in this place;
Namni Waaqaa sun garuu akkana jedhee mootichaaf deebii kenne; “Yoo ati walakkaa qabeenya keetii illee naa kennite ani si wajjin hin deemu yookaan asitti buddeena hin nyaadhu yookaan bishaan hin dhugu.
9 For so I was ordered by the word of the Lord, who said, You are not to take food or a drink of water, and you are not to go back the way you came.
Ani, ‘Buddeena hin nyaatin yookaan bishaan hin dhugin yookaan karaa dhufte kanaan hin deebiʼin’ jedhamee dubbii Waaqayyootiin ajajameeraatii.”
10 So he went another way, and not by the way he came to Beth-el.
Kanaafuu inni karaa biraa qabatee deeme malee karaa gara Beetʼeel dhufe sanaan hin deebine.
11 Now there was an old prophet living in Beth-el; and one of his sons came and gave him word of all the man of God had done that day in Beth-el, and they gave their father an account of the words he had said to the king.
Jaarsa raajii tokkotu Beetʼeel keessa jiraachaa ture; ilmaan isaas gara isaa dhufanii waan namni Waaqaa sun guyyaa sana achitti hojjete hunda isatti himan. Isaan waan inni mootichaan jedhes abbaa isaaniitti himan.
12 Then their father said to them, Which way did he go? Now his sons had seen which way the man of God who came from Judah had gone.
Abbaan isaaniis, “Inni karaa kamiin deeme?” jedhee isaan gaafate. Ilmaan isaa immoo karaa namni Waaqaa kan Yihuudaadhaa dhufe sun qabatee deeme isatti argisiisan.
13 So the prophet said to his sons, Make ready an ass for me. So they made an ass ready, and he got on it,
Kana irratti inni ilmaan isaatiin, “Harree irra kooraa naaf kaaʼaa” jedhe. Isaanis harree irra kooraa keenyaaniif inni harree sana yaabbatee
14 And went after the man of God, and came up with him while he was seated under an oak-tree. And he said to him, Are you the man of God who came from Judah? And he said, I am.
gulufee nama Waaqaa sana duukaa buʼe. Utuu inni muka qilxuu tokko jala taaʼuus argee, “Namni Waaqaa kan Yihuudaadhaa dhufe sun siʼii?” jedhee isa gaafate. Namichis, “Eeyyee ana” jedhee deebise.
15 Then he said to him, Come back to the house with me and have a meal.
Raajiin sunis, “Kottuu na wajjin mana kootti galiitii waa nyaadhu” jedheen.
16 But he said, I may not go back with you or go into your house; and I will not take food or a drink of water with you in this place;
Namni Waaqaa sun garuu akkana jedhee deebiseef; “Ani deebiʼee si wajjin deemuu yookaan asitti si wajjin buddeena nyaachuu yookaan bishaan dhuguu hin dandaʼu.
17 For the Lord said to me, You are not to take food or water there, or go back again by the way you came.
Ani, ‘Ati achitti buddeena hin nyaatin yookaan bishaan hin dhugin yookaan karaa dhufte sanaan hin deebiʼin’ jedhamee dubbii Waaqayyootiin ajajameeraatii.”
18 Then he said to him, I am a prophet like you; and an angel said to me by the word of the Lord, Take him back with you and give him food and water. But he said false words to him.
Jaarsi raajiin sunis akkana jedhee deebii kenneef; “Ani iyyuu akkuma kee raajii dha. Ergamaan Waaqayyoo tokkos dubbii Waaqayyootiin akkana naan jedhe; ‘Akka inni buddeena nyaatee bishaan dhuguuf deebisii gara mana keetii isa fidi.’” Jaarsi sun garuu isa sobe.
19 So he went back with him, and had a meal in his house and a drink of water.
Kanaafuu namni Waaqaa sun isa wajjin deebiʼee mana isaatti nyaatee dhuge.
20 But while they were seated at the table, the word of the Lord came to the prophet who had taken him back;
Utuma isaan maaddiitti dhiʼaatanii jiranuu dubbiin Waaqayyoo jaarsa raajii isa deebisee fide sanatti dhufe.
21 And crying out to the man of God who came from Judah, he said, The Lord says, Because you have gone against the voice of the Lord, and have not done as you were ordered by the Lord,
Innis nama Waaqaa kan Yihuudaadhaa dhufe sanatti iyyee akkana jedhe; “Waaqayyo akkana jedha, ‘Ati dubbii Waaqayyoo xureessiteerta; ajaja Waaqayyo Waaqni kee siif kennes hin eegne.
22 But have come back, and have taken food and water in this place where he said you were to take no food or water; your dead body will not be put to rest with your fathers.
Ati dugda duuba deebitee lafa inni itti hin nyaatin yookaan hin dhugin siin jedhe sanatti buddeena nyaattee bishaan illee dhugdeerta. Kanaafuu reeffi kee awwaala abbootii keetii keessatti hin awwaalamu.’”
23 Now after the meal he made ready the ass for him, for the prophet whom he had taken back.
Yommuu namni Waaqaa sun nyaatee dhugee raawwatetti, raajiin deebisee isa fide sun harree isaa irra kooraa kaaʼeef.
24 And he went on his way; but on the road a lion came rushing at him and put him to death; and his dead body was stretched in the road with the ass by its side, and the lion was there by the body.
Akkuma inni karaa ofii qabateen leenci tokko karaa irratti itti dhufee isa ajjeese; reeffi isaas karaa irratti gatamee harree fi leenci sun reeffa sana bira dhadhaabatanii turan.
25 And some men, going by, saw the body stretched out in the road with the lion by its side; and they came and gave news of it in the town where the old prophet was living.
Namoonni achiin darban tokko tokko reeffa karaa irratti gatamee leenci bira dhaabate sana arganii gara magaalaa jaarsi raajiin sun jiraatuu dhaqanii odeessan.
26 Then the prophet who had made him come back, hearing it, said, It is the man of God, who went against the word of the Lord; that is why the Lord has given him to the lion to be wounded to death, as the Lord said.
Raajichi karaadhaa deebisee isa fide sun yommuu waan kana dhagaʼetti akkana jedhe; “Inni nama Waaqaa kan dubbii Waaqayyootiif ajajamuu dide sanaa dha. Akkuma dubbiin Waaqayyoo isatti dubbatee ture sanatti Waaqayyo leenca cicciree isa ajjeesutti dabarsee isa kenne.”
27 And he said to his sons, Make ready the ass for me. And they did so.
Raajiin sunis ilmaan ofii isaatiin, “Harree irra kooraa naaf kaaʼaa” jedhe; isaanis akkasuma godhan.
28 And he went and saw the dead body stretched out in the road with the ass and the lion by its side: the lion had not taken the body for its food or done any damage to the ass.
Innis kaʼee deemee reeffa namichaa kan karaa irratti gatamee harree fi leenci sun bira dhadhaabatan arge. Leenci sun immoo reeffa sana hin nyaanne yookaan harree sana hin ciccirre.
29 Then the prophet took up the body of the man of God and put it on the ass and took it back; and he came to the town to put the body to rest with weeping.
Kanaafuu raajiin sun booʼeefii isa awwaaluuf jedhee reeffa nama Waaqaa sana harree irra kaaʼee fudhatee magaalaa ofii isaatti gale.
30 And he put the body in the resting-place made ready for himself, weeping and sorrowing over it, saying, O my brother!
Innis reeffa sana awwaala ofii isaa keessa ciibse; isaanis, “Wayyoo, yaa obboleessa koo!” jedhanii booʼaniif.
31 And when he had put it to rest, he said to his sons, When I am dead, then you are to put my body into the earth with the body of this man of God, and put me by his bones so that my bones may be kept safe with his bones.
Innis erga isa awwaalee booddee ilmaan ofii isaatiin akkana jedhe; “Yoo ani duʼe awwaala namni Waaqaa kun itti awwaalame keessatti na awwaalaa; lafee koos lafee isaa bira kaaʼaa.
32 For the outcry he made by the word of the Lord against the altar in Beth-el and against all the houses of the high places in the towns of Samaria, will certainly come about.
Ergaan inni iddoo aarsaa kan Beetʼeel keessaatii fi iddoowwan sagadaa kanneen magaalaawwan Samaariyaa keessa gaarran irra jiran sana hundaan mormuudhaan dubbii Waaqayyootiin labse sun dhugumaan ni guutamaatii.”
33 After this Jeroboam, not turning back from his evil ways, still made priests for his altars from among all the people; he made a priest of anyone desiring it, so that there might be priests of the high places.
Kana booddees Yerobiʼaam karaa isaa hamaa sana irraa hin deebine; garuu amma illee iddoowwan sagadaa kanneen gaarran irraa sanaaf saba hunda keessaa luboota muude. Innis nama luba taʼuu fedhu kam iyyuu iddoo sagadaa sanaaf addaan baase.
34 And this became a sin in the family of Jeroboam, causing it to be cut off and sent to destruction from the face of the earth.
Cubbuun mana Yerobiʼaam kan kufaatii isaatii fi lafa irraa badiisa isaa fide sun kana ture.
