2 Samuel 20
1 Now by chance there was present a good-for-nothing person named Sheba, the son of Bichri, a Benjamite: and he, sounding the horn, said, We have no part in David, or any interest in the son of Jesse: let every man go to his tent, O Israel.
Yeroo kanatti namichi dabaan Shebaa jedhamu, ilmi Biikrii namicha gosa Beniyaam tokko achi ture. Innis malakata afuufee sagalee guddaan akkana jedhee iyye; “Nu Daawit irraa qooda hin qabnu; ilma Isseey irraa dhaala tokko illee hin qabnu! Yaa Israaʼel, tokkoon tokkoon namaa gara dunkaana isaatti!”
2 So all the men of Israel, turning away from David, went after Sheba, the son of Bichri: but the men of Judah were true to their king, going with him from Jordan as far as Jerusalem.
Kanaafuu namoonni Israaʼel hundinuu Shebaa ilma Biikrii sana duukaa buʼuuf jedhanii Daawit irraa garagalan. Namoonni Yihuudaa garuu Yordaanosii hamma Yerusaalemitti mootii isaanii wajjin deeman.
3 And David came to his house at Jerusalem: and the king took the ten women to whom he had given the care of the house, and had them shut up, and gave them the necessaries of life, but did not go near them. So they were shut up till the day of their death, living as widows.
Daawitis yommuu masaraa isaa kan Yerusaalem keessaatti deebiʼetti, saajjatoowwan isaa kurnan akka isaan masaraa eeganiif dhiisee biraa deeme sana fuudhee mana tokkotti galchee akka isaan eegaman godhe. Inni waan isaan nyaatan kenneef malee isaan wajjin hin ciifne. Isaanis hamma gaafa duʼaniitti akka niitota dhirsoonni irraa duʼaniitti kophaa jiraatan.
4 Then the king said to Amasa, Get all the men of Judah together, and in three days be here yourself.
Ergasiis mootichi Amaasaadhaan, “Namoota Yihuudaa guyyaa sadii keessatti walitti naa qabi; atis asitti argami” jedhe.
5 So Amasa went to get all the men of Judah together, but he took longer than the time David had given him.
Amaasaan garuu yommuu namoota Yihuudaa waamuu deemetti yeroo mootichi isaaf kenne caalaa ture.
6 And David said to Abishai, Sheba, the son of Bichri, will do us more damage than Absalom did; so take some of your lord's servants and go after him, before he makes himself safe in the walled towns, and gets away before our eyes.
Daawitis Abiishaayidhaan, “Shebaan ilmi Biikrii miidhaa Abesaaloom nu miidhe sana caalaa nu miidha. Ati namoota gooftaa keetii fudhadhuutii isa ariʼi; yoo kanaa achii inni magaalaa daʼannoo qabu argatee nu jalaa miliqa” jedhe.
7 So there went after Abishai, Joab and the Cherethites and the Pelethites and all the fighting-men; they went out of Jerusalem to overtake Sheba, the son of Bichri.
Kanaafuu namoonni Yooʼaabii fi Kereetonni, Pheletonnii fi namoonni waraanaa jajjaboon hundi ajaja Abiishaayi jalatti hiriiranii qajeelan. Isaanis Yerusaalemii kaʼanii Shebaa ilma Biikrii sana ariʼuuf qajeelan.
8 When they were at the great stone which is in Gibeon, Amasa came face to face with them. Now Joab had on his war-dress, and round him a band from which his sword was hanging in its cover; and while he was walking, it came out, falling to the earth.
Utuma isaan Gibeʼoon keessa kattaa guddaa bira jiranuu Amaasaan isaan simachuuf dhufe. Yooʼaab uffata isaa kan waraanaa uffate; qalqalli goraadeen isaa keessa jirus sabbataan mudhii isaatti hidhamee ture. Akkuma inni gara fuula duraatti tarkaanfateenis goraadichi qalqala isaa keessaa lafa buʼe.
9 And Joab said to Amasa, Is it well, my brother? And with his right hand he took him by the hair of his chin to give him a kiss.
Yooʼaabis Amaasaan, “Yaa obboleessoo, akkam jirta?” jedhe. Kana irratti Yooʼaab isa dhungachuuf harka isaa mirgaatiin hareeda Amesaay qabate.
10 But Amasa did not see danger from the sword which was now in Joab's left hand, and Joab put it through his stomach so that his inside came out on to the earth, and he did not give him another blow. So Joab and his brother Abishai went on after Sheba, the son of Bichri.
Amesaay akka Yooʼaab goraadee harkaa qabu hin hubanne ture; kanaafuu Yooʼaab goraadee sana garaa isaatti dire; marʼumaan isaas lafatti jige. Amaasaanis utuu lammata hin waraanamin duʼe. Ergasii immoo Yooʼaabii fi obboleessi isaa Abiishaayi Shebaa ilma Biikrii sana ariʼan.
11 And one of Joab's young men, taking his place at Amasa's side, said, Whoever is for Joab and for David, let him go after Joab!
Namoota Yooʼaab keessaa inni tokko Amesaay bira dhaabatee, “Namni Yooʼaabin jaallatu, kan garee Daawit taʼe hundi Yooʼaabin duukaa haa buʼu!” jedhe.
12 And Amasa was stretched out in a pool of blood in the middle of the highway. And when the man saw that all the people were stopping, he took Amasa out of the highway and put him in a field, with a cloth over him, when he saw that everyone who went by came to a stop.
Yeroo kanatti reeffi Amaasaa dhiigaan faalamee karaa irra ciisa ture; namichi tokkos akka loltoonni hundi achi dhadhaabatan arge. Innis yommuu akka warri gara Amesaay dhufan hundi dhadhaabatan argetti karaa irraa gara lafa qotiisaatti isa harkisee wayyaa irra buuse.
13 When he had been taken off the road, all the people went on after Joab in search of Sheba, the son of Bichri.
Erga reeffi Amesaay karaa irraa kaafamee booddee namoonni hundinuu Shebaa ilma Biikrii sana ariʼuuf Yooʼaab faana qajeelan.
14 And Sheba went through all the tribes of Israel, to Abel of Beth-maacah; and all the Bichrites came together and went in after him.
Saabeʼeenis gosoota Israaʼel hunda keessa darbee gara Abeel Beet Maʼaakaatii fi gara biyya Beeriit hundaa dhaqe; namoonni Beeriitis walitti qabamanii isa duukaa buʼan.
15 And Joab and his men got him shut up in Abel of Beth-maacah, and put up an earthwork against the town: and all Joab's men did their best to get the wall broken down.
Loltoonni Yooʼaab wajjin turan hundinuus dhufanii Abeel Beet Maʼaakaatti Saabeʼee marsan. Isaanis hamma karra magaalaa sanaatti naannessanii biyyoo tuulan; yommuu dallaa magaalaa sanaa jigsuuf tumaa turanittis,
16 Then a wise woman got up on the wall, and crying out from the town, said, Give ear, give ear; say now to Joab, Come near, so that I may have talk with you.
dubartiin ogeettiin tokko magaalattiidhaa isaan waamtee, “Dhagaʼaa! Dhagaʼaa! Akka ani waa isatti himuu dandaʼuuf Yooʼaab as haa dhufu itti himaa” jette.
17 And he came near, and the woman said, Are you Joab? And he said in answer, I am. Then she said, Give ear to your servant's words. And he said, I am giving ear.
Inni gara ishee dhaqe; isheenis, “Ati Yooʼaabii?” jettee gaafatte. Innis, “Ani isuma” jedhee deebise. Isheen immoo, “Waan tajaajiltuun kee dubbattu dhagaʼi” jette. Innis, “Ani dhagaʼaan jira.”
18 Then she said, In the old days, there was a saying, Let them put the question in Abel and in Dan, saying, Has what was ordered by men of good faith in Israel ever come to an end?
Isheenis itti fuftee akkana jette; “Bara durii namoonni, ‘Gara Abeel dhaqaa gorsa gaafadhaa’ jedhu ture; akkasiinis dubbiin ni dhuma ture.
19 Your purpose is the destruction of a mother-town in Israel: why would you put an end to the heritage of the Lord?
Ani warra Israaʼel keessa nagaa fi amanamummaan jiraatan keessaa tokkoo dha. Ati magaalaa Israaʼel keessatti haadha taate tokko balleessuuf yaadaa jirta. Ati maaliif dhaala Waaqayyoo liqimsuu barbaadda?”
20 And Joab, answering her, said, Far, far be it from me to be a cause of death or destruction;
Yooʼaab immoo akkana jedhee deebise; “Wanni kun narraa haa fagaatu! Magaalattii balleessuun yookaan liqimsuun narraa haa fagaatu!
21 Not so: but a man of the hill-country of Ephraim, Sheba, son of Bichri, by name, has taken up arms against the king, against David: give up this man only, and I will go away from the town. And the woman said to Joab, His head will be dropped over the wall to you.
Wanni kun akkana miti. Namichi Shebaa jedhamu ilmi Biikrii kan biyya gaaraa Efreem sun mootiitti, Daawititti harka isaa ol fudhateera. Namicha tokkicha kana dabarsaa kennaa; anis magaalaa kana gad dhiisee nan baʼa.” Dubartiin sunis Yooʼaabiin, “Mataan namicha sanaa dallaa irraan gad siif darbatama” jette.
22 Then the woman in her wisdom had talk with all the town. And they had Sheba's head cut off and sent out to Joab. And he had the horn sounded, and sent them all away from the town, every man to his tent. And Joab went back to Jerusalem to the king.
Ergasii dubartiin sun gorsa ishee kan ogummaan guutame sanaan namoota hunda bira dhaqxe; isaanis mataa Shebaa ilma Biikrii sanaa kutanii Yooʼaabiif gad darbatan. Kanaafuu inni malakata afuufe; namoonni isaa magaalattii dhiisanii tokkoon tokkoon namaa mana ofii isaatti gale. Yooʼaab immoo gara Yerusaalem mooticha biratti deebiʼe.
23 Now Joab was over all the army; and Benaiah, the son of Jehoiada, was at the head of the Cherethites and the Pelethites;
Yooʼaab loltoota Israaʼel hunda irratti, Benaayaa ilmi Yehooyaadaa immoo Kereetotaa fi Pheletota irratti ajajaa taʼe;
24 And Adoram was overseer of the forced work; and Jehoshaphat, the son of Ahilud, was the recorder;
Adooraam namoota hojii humnaa hojjetan irratti muudame; Yehooshaafaax ilmi Ahiiluud immoo galmeessaa taʼe;
25 And Sheva was the scribe, and Zadok and Abiathar were priests;
Shewwaan barreessaa, Zaadoqii fi Abiyaataar immoo luboota turan;
26 And in addition, Ira the Jairite was a priest to David.
akkasumas Iiraas namichi gosa Yaaʼiri sun luba Daawit ture.
