Kings IV 10
1 And Achaab [had] seventy sons in Samaria. And Ju wrote a letter, and sent it into Samaria to the rulers of Samaria, and to the elders, and to the guardians of [the children of] Achaab, saying.
Yeroo sanatti Ahaab ilmaan torbaatama Samaariyaa keessaa qaba ture. Kanaafuu Yehuun xalayoota barreessee qondaaltota Yizriʼeelitti, maanguddootattii fi guddiftoota ilmaan Ahaabitti gara Samaariyaatti erge. Inni akkana jedhe;
2 Now then, as soon as this letter shall have reached you, whereas [there are] with you the sons of your master, and with you chariots and horses, and strong cities, and arms,
“Akkuma xalayaan kun isin gaʼeen, waan ilmaan gooftaa keessanii isin bira jiranii fi waan isinis gaariiwwanii fi fardeen, magaalaa jabeeffamee ijaaramee fi miʼa lolaa qabdaniif,
3 do ye accordingly look out the best and fittest among your master's sons, and set him on the throne of his father, and fight for the house of your master.
ilmaan gooftaa keessanii keessaa kan warra kaan caaluu fi kan ni mala jettanii yaaddan filadhaatii teessoo abbaa isaa irra teessisaa. Ergasiis mana abbaa keessaniitiif lolaa.”
4 And they feared greatly, and said, Behold, two kings stood not before him: and how shall we stand?
Isaan garuu akka malee sodaatanii, “Yoo mootonni lama isa hin dandaʼin nu akkamiin isa dandeenya?” waliin jedhan.
5 So they that were over the house, and they that were over the city, and the elders and the guardians, sent to Ju, saying, We also [are] thy servants, and whatsoever thou shalt say to us we will do; we will not make [any] man king: we will do that which is right in thine eyes.
Kanaafuu bulchaan masaraa mootummaatii fi shuumiin magaalattii, maanguddoonnii fi guddiftoonni, “Nu garboota kee ti; waan ati jettu hunda ni hojjenna. Nu nama tokko illee mootii goonee hin filannu; ati mataan kee waanuma jaallatte godhi” jedhanii ergaa kana Yehuutti ergan.
6 And Ju wrote them a second letter, saying, If ye [are] for me, and hearken to my voice, take the heads of the men your master's sons, and bring [them] to me at this time to-morrow in Jezrael. Now the sons of the king were seventy men; these great men of the city brought them up.
Yehuun immoo, “Isin yoo garee koo taatanii fi yoo naa ajajamtan, mataa ilmaan gooftaa keessanii kukkutaatii bori yeroo kanatti Yizriʼeelitti naa fidaa” jedhee xalayaa lammaffaa barreesse. Yeroo kanatti ilmaan mootii torbaatamanuu namoota magaalaa sanaa bebeekamoo kanneen isaan guddisan bira turan.
7 And it came to pass, when the letter came to them, that they took the king's sons, and slew them, [even] seventy men, and put their heads in baskets, and sent them to him at Jezrael.
Yommuu xalayaan sun isaan gaʼetti namoonni kunneen ilmaan mootii torbaatamman sana hundumaa ni gogorraʼan. Mataa isaaniis guubootti naqanii gara Yizriʼeelitti Yehuudhaaf ni ergan.
8 And a messenger came and told [him], saying, They have brought the heads of the king's sons. And he said, Lay them [in] two heaps by the door of the gate until the morning.
Ergamtichi yommuu deebiʼetti, “Isaan mataa ilmaan mootii fidaniiru” jedhee Yehuutti hime. Yehuun immoo, “Mee balbala ittiin magaalattii seenan duratti iddoo lamatti tuulaatii hamma lafti bariitutti tursaa” jedhee ajaje.
9 And the morning came, and he went forth, and stood, and said to all the people, Ye are righteous: behold, I conspired against my master, and slew him: but who slew all these?
Yehuun guyyaa itti aanu ganamaan kaʼee gad baʼe. Fuula namoota hundaa dura dhaabatees akkana jedhe; “Isin yakka hin qabdan. Namni gooftaa kootti malatee isa ajjeese anuma; garuu warra kana hunda eenyutu fixe?
10 See now that there shall not fall to the ground anything of the word of the Lord which the Lord spoke against the house of Achaab: for the Lord has performed all that he spoke of by the hand of his servant Eliu.
Kanaafuu akka dubbiin Waaqayyo mana Ahaab irratti dubbate tokko iyyuu lafa hin buune beekaa. Waaqayyo waan karaa garbicha isaa Eeliyaasiin dubbate sana guuteera.”
11 And Ju smote all that were left of the house of Achaab in Jezrael, and all his great men, and his acquaintance, and his priests, so as not to leave him [any] remnant.
Yehuunis akkasiin nama mana Ahaab keessaa Yizriʼeel keessatti hafe kam iyyuu, namoota isaa gurguddaa, michoota isaa kanneen itti dhiʼaatanii fi luboota isaa, utuu nama tokko illee hin hambisin hunda isaanii fixe.
12 And he arose and went to Samaria, [and] he [was] in the house of sheep-shearing in the way.
Yehuun ergasii kaʼee Samaariyaa dhaqe. Innis yommuu Beet Eekad gaʼetti,
13 And Ju found the brethren of Ochozias king of Juda, and said, Who [are] ye? And they said, We [are] the brethren of Ochozias, and we have come down to salute the sons of the king, and the sons of the queen.
firoota Ahaaziyaa mootii Yihuudaa keessaa namoota tokko tokko argee, “Isin eenyu?” jedhee gaafate. Isaanis, “Nu firoota Ahaaziyaa; nu maatii mootichaatii fi ilmaan haadha mootichaa dubbisuu dhufne” jedhanii deebisan.
14 And he said, Take them alive. And they slew them at the shearing-house, forty and two men: he left not a man of them.
Innis, “Utuma lubbuudhaan jiranuu isaan qabaa!” jedhee ajaje. Kanaafuu utuma isaan lubbuun jiranuu qabanii boolla bishaanii Beet Eekad biratti afurtamii lamaan isaanii gogorraʼan. Inni isaan keessaa nama tokko illee hin hambifne.
15 And he went thence and found Jonadab the son of Rechab [coming] to meet him; and he saluted him, and Ju said to him, Is thy heart right with my heart, as my heart [is] with thy heart? And Jonadab said, It is. And Ju said, If it is then, give me thy hand. And he gave him his hand, and he took him up to him into the chariot.
Erga achii deemee immoo Yehoonaadaab ilma Rekaab utuu inni gara isaa dhufuutti jiruu arge. Yehuunis isa dubbisee, “Akkuma ani gara kee jiru ati gara koo jirta moo?” jedhee isa gaafate. Yehoonaadaabis, “Ani gara kee jira” jedhee deebise. Yehuunis, “Yoo akkas taʼe harka kee natti kenni” jedheen. Innis harka isaa itti kenne. Yehuunis isa gargaaree gaariitti ol isa baase.
16 And he said to him, Come with me, and see me zealous for the Lord. And he caused him to sit in his chariot.
Yehuun, “Na wajjin kottuutii hinaaffaa ani Waaqayyoof qabu ilaali” jedheen. Ergasiis gaarii isaatiin isa fudhatee deeme.
17 And he entered into Samaria, and smote all that were left of Achaab in Samaria, until he had utterly destroyed him, according to the word of the Lord, which he spoke to Eliu.
Yehuun yommuu Samaariyaa gaʼetti maatii Ahaab keessaa kanneen achitti hafan hunda fixe; innis akkuma dubbii Waaqayyo Eeliyaasitti dubbate sanaatti isaan balleesse.
18 And Ju gathered all the people, and said to them, Achaab served Baal a little; Ju shall serve him much.
Ergasii Yehuun saba hunda walitti waamee akkana jedheen; “Ahaab xinnuma Baʼaalin tajaajile. Yehuun garuu guddisee isa tajaajila.
19 Now then do all [ye] the prophets of Baal call all his servants and his priests to me; let not a man be wanting: for I have a great sacrifice [to offer] to Baal; every one who shall be missing shall die. But Ju did it in subtilty, that he might destroy the servants of Baal.
Kanaafuu amma raajota Baʼaal hunda, tajaajiltoota isaa hundaa fi luboota isaa hunda walitti waamaa. Waan ani qalma guddaa isaa Baʼaaliif dhiʼeessuuf tokkoon isaanii iyyuu hin hafin. Namni hafu kam iyyuu siʼachi lubbuudhaan hin jiraatu.” Yehuun garuu tajaajiltoota Baʼaal barbadeesuudhaaf sobee akkas jedhe.
20 And Ju said, Sanctify a solemn festival to Baal, and they made a proclamation.
Yehuun, “Ulfina Baʼaaliif jedhaatii yaaʼii waamaa” jedhe. Kanaafuu isaan ni labsan.
21 And Ju sent throughout all Israel, saying, Now then let all [Baal's] servants, and all his priests, and all his prophets [come], let none be lacking: for I am going to offer a great sacrifice; whosoever shall be missing, shall not live. So all the servants of Baal came, and all his priests, and all his prophets: there was not one left who came not. And they entered into the house of Baal; and the house of Baal was filled from one end to the other.
Kana irratti inni Israaʼel guutuu keessa ergaa ergee akkasiin tajaajiltoonni Baʼaal hundinuu ni dhufan; tokkoon isaanii iyyuu hin hafne. Isaanis mana waaqeffannaa Baʼaalitti ol galan; manni sunis gama tokkoo hamma gama kaaniitti guutame.
22 And he said to the man who was over the house of the wardrobe, Bring forth a robe for all the servants of Baal. And the keeper of the robes brought forth to them.
Yehuunis namicha uffata eeguun, “Tajaajiltoota Baʼaal hundaaf uffata fidi” jedhe. Kanaafuu namichi sun wayyaa fideef.
23 And Ju and Jonadab the son of Rechab entered into the house of Baal, and said to the servants of Baal, Search, and see whether there is among you any of the servants of the Lord, or only the servants of Baal, by themselves.
Yehuu fi Yehoonaadaab ilmi Rekaab sun mana waaqeffannaa Baʼaal ol seenan. Yehuunis tajaajiltoota Baʼaaliin, “Mee asii fi achi ilaalaatii akka tajaajiltoota Baʼaal malee tajaajiltoonni Waaqayyoo tokko iyyuu isin wajjin as hin jirre hubadhaa” jedhe.
24 And he went in to offer sacrifices and whole-burnt-offerings; and Ju set for himself eighty men without, and said, Every man who shall escape of the men whom I bring into your hand, the life of him [that spares him] shall go for his life.
Kanaafuu isaan qalmaa fi aarsaa gubamu dhiʼeessuuf ol galan. Yehuun yeroo sanatti nama saddeettama ala dhaabee, “Namni warra ani harka keessanitti kennu kanneen keessaa akka tokko iyyuu miliqu godhu kam iyyuu qooda lubbuu namicha sanaa lubbuu isaa dhaba” jedhee akeekkachiisee ture.
25 And it came to pass, when he had finished offering the whole-burnt-offering, that Ju said to the footmen and to the officers, Go ye in and slay them; let not a man of them escape. So they smote them with the edge of the sword, and the footmen and the officers cast [the bodies] forth, and went to the city of the house of Baal.
Yehuun akkuma aarsaa gubamu sana dhiʼeessee raawwateen, “Ol seenaatii isaan fixaa; akka namni tokko iyyuu miliqu hin godhinaa” jedhee eegdotaa fi ajajjoota sana ajaje. Kanaafuu isaan goraadeedhaan warra sana cicciran. Eegdotaa fi ajajjoonni sun reeffa isaanii alatti gad dadarbatanii kutaa mana waaqeffannaa Baʼaal kan gara keessaatti ol galan.
26 And they brought out the pillar of Baal, and burnt it.
Isaanis mana Baʼaal keessaa fakkiiwwan gad baasanii guban.
27 And they tore down the pillars of Baal, and made his house a draught-house until this day.
Isaan fakkii Baʼaal caccabsanii mana Baʼaalis diigan. Namoonnis hamma guyyaa harʼaatti lafa itti bobbaa baʼan godhatanii itti fayyadamu.
28 So Ju abolished Baal out of Israel.
Akkasiin Yehuun Israaʼel keessaa waaqeffannaa Baʼaal balleesse.
29 Nevertheless Ju departed not from following the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nabat, who led Israel to sin: [these were] the golden heifers in Baethel and in Dan.
Taʼus inni iyyuu cubbuu Yerobiʼaam ilma Nebaat kan inni akka sabni Israaʼel hojjetu godhe sana irraa hin deebine; cubbuun kunis fakkii jabbii warqee irraa hojjetamee Beetʼeelii fi Daanitti waaqeffachuu isaanii ti.
30 And the Lord said to Ju, Because of all thy deeds wherein thou hast acted well in doing that which was right in my eyes, according to all things which thou hast done to the house of Achaab [as they were] in my heart, thy sons to the fourth generation shall sit upon the throne of Israel.
Waaqayyos Yehuudhaan akkana jedhe; “Sababii ati waan fuula koo duratti qajeelaa taʼe fiixaan baasuu keessatti waan gaarii hojjettee fi waan ani mana Ahaab irratti hojjechuuf garaadhaa qabu hunda hojjetteef sanyiiwwan kee hamma dhaloota afuraffaatti teessoo Israaʼel irra ni taaʼu.”
31 But Ju took no heed to walk in the law of the Lord God of Israel with all his heart: he departed not from following the sins of Jeroboam, who made Israel to sin.
Taʼus Yehuun seera Waaqayyo Waaqa Israaʼel garaa guutuudhaan eeguuf of eeggannoo hin goone. Inni cubbuu Yerobiʼaam kan inni akka sabni Israaʼel hojjetu godhe sana irraa hin deebine.
32 In those days the Lord began to cut Israel short; and Azael smote them in every coast of Israel;
Bara sana keessa Waaqayyo lafa Israaʼel irraa kukkutee xinneessuu jalqabe. Hazaaʼeelis guutummaa bulchiinsa isaanii keessatti Israaʼeloota moʼate;
33 from Jordan eastward all the land of Galaad belonging to the Gadites, of Gaddi and that of Ruben, and of Manasses, from Aroer, which is on the brink of the brook of Arnon, and Galaad and Basan.
kunis gama baʼa Yordaanosiin biyya Giliʼaad hunda jechuunis biyya Gaad, biyya Ruubeenii fi biyya Minaasee kan Aroʼeer laga Arnoon biratti argamtu sanaa jalqabee Giliʼaadii hamma Baashaaniitti jiruu dha.
34 And the rest of the acts of Ju, and all that he did, and all his might, and the wars wherein he engaged, [are] not these things written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?
Wantoonni bara mootummaa Yehuu keessa hojjetaman biraa, wanni inni hojjete hundii fi jabinni isaa hundi kitaaba seenaa mootota Israaʼel keessatti barreeffamaniiru mitii?
35 And Ju slept with his fathers; and they buried him in Samaria: and Joachaz his son reigned in his stead.
Yehuun abbootii isaa wajjin boqotee Samaariyaa keessatti ni awwaalame. Ilmi isaa Yehooʼaahaaz iddoo isaa buʼee mootii taʼe.
36 And the days which Ju reigned over Israel [were] twenty-eight years in Samaria.
Yehuun Samaariyaa keessa taaʼee waggaa digdamii saddeet Israaʼelin bulche.
