2 Chronicles 13
1 In the eighteenth year of king Jeroboam began Abijah to reign over Judah.
Bara mootummaa Yerobiʼaam keessa waggaa kudha saddeettaffaatti Abiyaan mootii Yihuudaa taʼe;
2 He reigned three years in Jerusalem; and his mother's name was Michaiah, the daughter of Uriel of Gibeah. And there was war between Abijah and Jeroboam.
innis Yerusaalem keessa jiraatee waggaa sadii ni bulche. Maqaan haadha isaa Miikaayaa ture; isheen intala Uuriiʼeel namicha Gibeʼaa sanaa turte. Abiyaa fi Yerobiʼaam gidduu waraanatu ture.
3 And Abijah began the war with an army of men of war, four hundred thousand chosen men; and Jeroboam set the battle in array against him with eight hundred thousand chosen men, mighty men of valour.
Abiyaan humna waraanaa kan namoota lola dandaʼan kuma dhibba afur of keessaa qabuun duule; Yerobiʼaam immoo loltoota ciccimoo kuma dhibba saddeetiin baʼee isa eegate.
4 And Abijah stood up on the top of mount Zemaraim, which is in mount Ephraim, and said, Hear me, Jeroboam, and all Israel!
Abiyaan Gaara Zemaaraayim kan biyya gaaraa Efreem irra dhaabatee akkana jedhe; “Yerobiʼaamii fi Israaʼel hundi mee na dhaggeeffadhaa!
5 Ought ye not to know that Jehovah the God of Israel gave the kingdom over Israel to David for ever, to him and to his sons [by] a covenant of salt?
Isin akka Waaqayyo Waaqni Israaʼel sun mootummaa Israaʼel Daawitii fi sanyiiwwan isaatiif kakuu soogiddaan bara baraan kenne hin beektanii?
6 But Jeroboam the son of Nebat, the servant of Solomon the son of David, rose up and rebelled against his lord.
Taʼus Yerobiʼaam ilmi Nebaat tajaajilaan Solomoon ilma Daawit sun gooftaa isaatti ni fincile.
7 And vain men, sons of Belial, gathered to him and strengthened themselves against Rehoboam the son of Solomon, and Rehoboam was young and faint-hearted, and did not shew himself strong against them.
Yeroo Rehooboʼaam ilmi Solomoon ijoollee waa murteeffachuu fi isaaniin mormuufis dandeettii hin qabneetti kashlabboonni faayidaa hin qabne tokko tokko naannoo isaatti walitti qabamanii isaan morman.
8 And now ye think to shew yourselves strong against the kingdom of Jehovah in the hand of the sons of David; and ye are a great multitude, and ye have with you the golden calves that Jeroboam made you for gods.
“Isin amma mootummaa Waaqayyoo kan sanyii Daawit harka jiruun mormuuf yaadaa jirtan. Isin dhugumaan tuuta guddaa dha; fakkiiwwan jabbiiwwan warqee kanneen akka isaan waaqota keessan isinii taʼaniif Yerobiʼaam isiniif tolche sanas of biraa qabdu.
9 Have ye not cast out the priests of Jehovah, the sons of Aaron, and the Levites, and made you priests as the peoples of the lands? whoever comes to consecrate himself with a young bullock and seven rams, he becomes a priest of what is not God.
Isin garuu luboota Waaqayyoo, ilmaan Arooniitii fi Lewwota of keessaa baaftanii akkuma namoota biyyoota kaanii luboota ofii keessanii hin muudannee? Namni dibicha loonii tokkoo fi korbeeyyii hoolaa torba qabatee of qulqulleessuu dhufu kam iyyuu waan waaqota hin taʼin sanaaf luba taʼa.
10 But as for us, Jehovah is our God, and we have not forsaken him; and the priests that serve Jehovah are the sons of Aaron, and the Levites are at their work:
“Nuuf garuu Waaqayyo Waaquma keenya; nu isa hin dhiifne. Luboonni Waaqayyoon tajaajilanis ilmaan Aroon; Lewwonni immoo isaan ni gargaaru.
11 and they burn to Jehovah every morning and every evening burnt-offerings and sweet incense; the loaves also are set in order upon the pure table; and the candlestick of gold with its lamps to burn every evening: for we keep the charge of Jehovah our God; but ye have forsaken him.
Isaan ganamaa fi galgala hunda aarsaa gubamuu fi ixaana urgaaʼu Waaqayyoof ni dhiʼeessu. Minjaala akka seeraatti qulqullaaʼe irra buddeena kaaʼanii galgala galgala immoo ibsaa baattuu ibsaa kan warqee irraa hojjetame irra jiru ni qabsiisu. Nu ajaja Waaqayyo Waaqa keenyaa ni eegna; isin garuu isa dhiiftaniirtu.
12 And behold, we have God with us at our head, and his priests, and the loud-sounding trumpets to sound an alarm against you. Children of Israel, do not fight with Jehovah the God of your fathers; for ye shall not prosper.
Waaqni nu wajjin jira; inni qajeelchaa keenya. Luboonni isaas malakata isaanii afuufanii waraana isinitti ni waamu. Yaa namoota Israaʼel isin hin milkooftaniitii, Waaqayyo Waaqa abbootii keessanii hin lolinaa.”
13 But Jeroboam caused an ambush to come about behind them; and they were before Judah, and the ambush behind them.
Yerobiʼaam yeroo kanatti akka isaan utuma inni fuula Yihuudaa duraan jiruu karaa dugda duubaatiin isaan marsaniif loltoota isaa jaratti ni erge.
14 And Judah looked back, and behold, they had the battle in front and behind; and they cried to Jehovah, and the priests sounded with the trumpets.
Namoonni Yihuudaa garagalanii akka duraa fi duubaan marfaman ni argan. Isaanis gara Waaqayyootti ni iyyatan; luboonni immoo malakata isaanii ni afuufan;
15 And the men of Judah gave a shout; and as the men of Judah shouted, it came to pass that God smote Jeroboam and all Israel before Abijah and Judah.
namoonni Yihuudaas iyya waraanaa ni dhageessisan. Waaqnis iyya isaaniitiin Yerobiʼaamii fi Israaʼeloota hunda fuula Abiyaa fi Yihuudaa duraa ni barbadeesse.
16 And the children of Israel fled before Judah; and God delivered them into their hand.
Israaʼeloonni fuula Yihuudaa duraa ni baqatan; Waaqnis dabarsee harka Yihuudootaatti isaan kenne.
17 And Abijah and his people slew them with a great slaughter; and there fell down slain of Israel five hundred thousand chosen men.
Abiyaa fi namoonni isaa akka malee isaan miidhan; kanaafuu loltoota Israaʼel ciccimoo keessaa namni kuma dhibba shan ni dhume.
18 And the children of Israel were humbled at that time, and the children of Judah were strengthened, because they relied upon Jehovah the God of their fathers.
Lola sana irrattis namoonni Israaʼel akka malee ni dhaʼaman; namoonni Yihuudaa garuu sababii Waaqayyo Waaqa abbootii isaanii abdataniif ni moʼatan.
19 And Abijah pursued after Jeroboam, and took cities from him: Bethel with its dependent villages, and Jeshanah with its dependent villages, and Ephron with its dependent villages.
Abiyaanis Yerobiʼaamin ariʼee magaalaawwan Beetʼeel, Yishaanaa fi Efroon, gandoota naannoo isaanii jiran wajjin irraa ni fudhate.
20 And Jeroboam did not recover strength again in the days of Abijah; and Jehovah smote him, and he died.
Yerobiʼaam bara mootummaa Abiyaa keessa deebiʼee bayyanachuu hin dandeenye. Waaqayyo isa dhaʼe; innis ni duʼe.
21 But Abijah strengthened himself, and took fourteen wives, and begot twenty-two sons and sixteen daughters.
Abiyaan garuu jabaachaa ni deeme. Innis niitota kudha afur fuudhee ilmaan digdamii lamaa fi dubara kudha jaʼa ni dhalche.
22 And the rest of the acts of Abijah, and his ways and his sayings, are written in the treatise of the prophet Iddo.
Wanni Abiyaan bara mootummaa isaa keessa hojjete biraa, waan inni hojjetee fi wanni inni dubbate galmee seenaa raajicha Iddoo keessatti barreeffameera.
