2 Chronicles 20
1 And it came to pass after this [that] the children of Moab, and the children of Ammon, and with them certain of the Maonites, came against Jehoshaphat to battle.
Kana booddee Moʼaabonnii fi Amoononni Miʼuunota tokko tokko wajjin Yehooshaafaaxin loluuf dhufan.
2 And they came and told Jehoshaphat saying, A great multitude is come against thee from beyond the sea, from Syria; and behold, they are in Hazazon-tamar, which is Engedi.
Namoonni tokko tokkos dhufanii, “Waraanni akka malee guddaan isaa Edoom gama Galaanaatii sitti dhufaa jira. Duulli kunis kunoo Een Gaadii lafa Hazezoon Taamaar jedhamu gaʼee jira” jedhanii Yehooshaafaaxitti himan.
3 And Jehoshaphat feared, and set himself to seek Jehovah, and proclaimed a fast throughout Judah.
Yehooshaafaaxis waan akka malee sodaateef Waaqayyoon waammachuuf murteeffate; guutummaa Yihuudaa keessattis sooma labse.
4 And Judah gathered themselves together to ask [help] of Jehovah: even out of all the cities of Judah they came to seek Jehovah.
Namoonni Yihuudaas gargaarsa Waaqayyoo barbaacha walitti ni qabaman; isaan dhugumaan isa barbaacha magaalaawwan Yihuudaa hunda keessaa ni dhufan.
5 And Jehoshaphat stood in the congregation of Judah and Jerusalem, in the house of Jehovah, before the new court;
Yehooshaafaaxis mana qulqullummaa Waaqayyoo keessa oobdii haaraa dura waldaa Yihuudaa fi Yerusaalem gidduu dhaabatee
6 and he said, Jehovah, God of our fathers, art not thou God in the heavens, and rulest thou not over all the kingdoms of the nations? And in thy hand there is power and might, and none can withstand thee.
akkana jedhe: “Yaa Waaqayyo, Waaqa abbootii keenyaa, ati Waaqa samii keessa jiraattu mitii? Ati mootummoota sabootaa hunda bulchita; humnii fi jabinni si harka jiru; namni siin mormuu dandaʼu tokko iyyuu hin jiru.
7 Hast not thou, our God, dispossessed the inhabitants of this land before thy people Israel, and given it for ever to the seed of Abraham, thy friend?
Yaa Waaqa keenya, ati jiraattota biyya kanaa fuula saba kee Israaʼel duraa baaftee biyyattii bara baraan sanyiiwwan Abrahaam michuu kee sanaaf hin kenninee?
8 And they have dwelt therein, and have built thee a sanctuary therein for thy name, saying,
Isaanis biyya sana keessa jiraatanii Maqaa keetiif mana qulqullummaa ni ijaaran; akkanas jedhan:
9 If evil come upon us, sword, judgment, or pestilence, or famine, and we stand before this house and before thee — for thy name is in this house — and cry unto thee in our distress, then thou wilt hear and save.
‘Yoo wanni hamaan nutti dhufe, yoo goraadeen, murtiin yookaan dhaʼichi yookaan beelli nutti dhufe, nu fuula kee dura mana qulqullummaa kan Maqaa keetiin waamamu kana dura dhaabannee dhiphina keenya keessatti sitti iyyanna; atis nu dhageessee nu oolchitta.’
10 And now, behold, the children of Ammon and Moab, and those of mount Seir, amongst whom thou wouldest not let Israel go when they came out of the land of Egypt, (for they turned from them, and destroyed them not, )
“Amma garuu namoonni Amoon, kan Moʼaabii fi kan Gaara Seeʼiir kanneen ati akka Israaʼeloonni yeroo Gibxii dhufanitti isaan hin tuqne gootee akkasiin badiisa oolan sun as jiru.
11 behold, they reward us, in coming to cast us out of thy possession, which thou hast given us to possess.
Kunoo akka isaan biyya ati dhaala gootee nuu kennite keessaa nu baasuudhaan galata keenya nuu deebisuuf dhufan ilaali.
12 Our God, wilt thou not judge them? for we have no might in presence of this great company which cometh against us, neither know we what to do; but our eyes are upon thee.
Yaa Waaqa keenya ati isaanitti hin murtuu? Nu waraana guddaa nutti dhufe kana of irraa deebisuudhaaf humna hin qabnu. Nu waan goonu hin beeknu; iji keenya garuu sirra jira.”
13 And all Judah stood before Jehovah, with their little ones, their wives, and their sons.
Namoonni Yihuudaa hundinuu niitota isaanii, ijoollee fi daaʼimman isaanii wajjin fuula Waaqayyoo dura dhadhaabatanii turan.
14 And upon Jahaziel the son of Zechariah, the son of Benaiah, the son of Jeiel, the son of Mattaniah, a Levite of the sons of Asaph, upon him came the Spirit of Jehovah, in the midst of the congregation;
Yahiziiʼeel ilma Zakkaariyaas ilma Benaayaa, ilma Yeʼiiʼeel ilma Mataan Lewwicha sanyii Asaaf sana utuma inni waldaa keessa dhabatuu Hafuurri Waaqayyoo isa irra buʼe.
15 and he said, Be attentive, all Judah, and ye inhabitants of Jerusalem, and thou king Jehoshaphat! Thus saith Jehovah unto you: Fear not, nor be dismayed by reason of this great multitude; for the battle is not yours, but God's.
Innis akkana jedhe; “Yehooshaafaax yaa mootii, warri Yihuudaa fi Yerusaalem keessa jiraattan hundinuu dhagaʼaa! Waaqayyo akkana isiniin jedha: ‘Isin sababii waraana guddaa kanaatiif jettanii hin sodaatinaa yookaan abdii hin kutatinaa. Lolli kun kan Waaqaa ti malee kan keessan miti.
16 To-morrow go down against them: behold, they come up by the ascent of Ziz; and ye shall find them at the end of the valley, before the wilderness of Jeruel.
Bor isaanitti gad buʼaa. Isaan karaa malkaa Ziizi ol baʼu; isin immoo gammoojjii Yiruuʼeel keessatti qarqara sululichaa irratti isaan argattu.
17 Ye shall not have to fight on this occasion: set yourselves, stand and see the salvation of Jehovah [who is] with you! Judah and Jerusalem, fear not nor be dismayed; to-morrow go out against them, and Jehovah will be with you.
Lola kana loluu isin hin barbaachisu. Isin iddoo iddoo keessan qabadhaa; yaa Yihuudaa fi Yerusaalem jabaadhaa dhaabadhaatii moʼannoo Waaqayyo isiniif kennu ilaalaa. Hin sodaatinaa; abdiis hin kutatinaa. Bor isaanitti baʼaa; Waaqayyo isin wajjin dhaabata.’”
18 And Jehoshaphat bowed his head with his face to the ground; and all Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem fell down before Jehovah, worshipping Jehovah.
Yehooshaafaax adda isaatiin lafatti gombifame; namoonni Yihuudaa fi Yerusaalem hundinuus fuula Waaqayyoo duratti addaan lafatti gombifamanii ni sagadan.
19 And the Levites, of the sons of the Kohathites, and of the sons of the Korahites, stood up to praise Jehovah the God of Israel with an exceeding loud voice.
Ergasii immoo garee Qohaatii fi Qooraahi keessaa Lewwonni tokko tokko dhaabatanii, sagalee guddaadhaan Waaqayyo Waaqa Israaʼel ni galateeffatan.
20 And they rose early in the morning, and went forth towards the wilderness of Tekoa; and as they went forth, Jehoshaphat stood and said, Hear me, Judah, and ye inhabitants of Jerusalem! Believe in Jehovah your God, and ye shall be established; believe his prophets, and ye shall prosper!
Isaanis guyyaa itti aanu ganamaan kaʼanii gammoojjii Teqooʼaatti ni qajeelan. Yehooshaafaaxis akkuma isaan baʼaniin dhaabatee, “Namoonni Yihuudaa fi Yerusaalem na dhaggeeffadhaa! Isin ni jabaattuutii Waaqayyo Waaqa keessan amanadhaa; raajota isaa illee amanaa isin ni milkooftuutii” jedhe.
21 And he consulted with the people, and appointed singers to Jehovah, and those that should praise in holy splendour, as they went forth before the armed men, and say, Give thanks to Jehovah; for his loving-kindness [endureth] for ever!
Yehooshaafaax erga namoota wajjin mariʼatee booddee akka isaan loltoota dura deemanii, “Waaqayyoon galateeffadhaa; jaalalli isaa bara baraan jiraataatii” jechaa Waaqayyoon faarfatanii sababii ulfina qulqullummaa isaatiif isa leellisaniif faarfattoota muude.
22 And when they began the song of triumph and praise, Jehovah set liers-in-wait against the children of Ammon, Moab, and mount Seir, who had come against Judah, and they were smitten.
Akkuma isaan faarfachuu fi galateeffachuu jalqabaniinis Waaqayyo namoota Amoon kan Moʼaabii fi kan Gaara Seeʼiir kanneen Yihuudaatti duulan sana dura waraana riphee eeggatu tokko ni kaaʼe; isaanis ni moʼataman.
23 And the children of Ammon and Moab stood up against the inhabitants of mount Seir, to exterminate and destroy [them]; and when they had made an end of the inhabitants of Seir, they helped to destroy one another.
Namoonni Amoonii fi Moʼaab namoota Tulluu Seeʼiir irraa dhufan guutumaan guutuutti barbadeessuudhaaf itti kaʼan. Isaanis erga namoota Seeʼiir dhufan sana fixanii booddee deebiʼanii wal fixan.
24 And Judah came on to the mountain-watch in the wilderness, and they looked toward the multitude; and behold, they were dead bodies fallen to the earth, and none had escaped.
Namoonni Yihuudaas yommuu iddoo gara gammoojjiitti garagalee jiru gaʼanii waraana guddaa sana ilaalanitti reeffa lafatti kufe qofa argan; namni tokko iyyuu hin miliqne.
25 And Jehoshaphat and his people came to plunder the spoil of them, and they found among them in abundance, both riches with the dead bodies, and precious things, and they stripped off for themselves more than they could carry away; and they were three days in plundering the spoil, it was so much.
Kanaafuu Yehooshaafaaxii fi namoonni isaa boojuu isaanii guurrachuu dhaqan; isaanis miʼa lolaa hedduu fi uffata akkasumas miʼoota gatii guddaa baasan kan guurratanii fixuu hin dandeenye achitti ni argatan. Boojuun argames waan akka malee baayʼee tureef walitti qabuuf bultii sadii fudhate.
26 And on the fourth day they assembled themselves in the valley of Berachah, for there they blessed Jehovah; therefore the name of that place was called The valley of Berachah, to this day.
Bultii afuraffaatti lafa itti Waaqayyoof galata dhiʼeessan sana Sulula Beraakaa keessatti walitti qabaman. Kanaafuu iddoon suni hamma harʼaatti Sulula Beraakaa jedhamee waamama.
27 And they returned, all the men of Judah and Jerusalem, and Jehoshaphat at their head, to go again to Jerusalem with joy; for Jehovah had made them to rejoice over their enemies.
Namoonni Yihuudaa fi Yerusaalem sababii Waaqayyo waan isaan ittiin diinota isaanii irratti gammadan isaaniif kenneef Yehooshaafaaxiin hoogganamanii gammachuudhaan Yerusaalemitti deebiʼan.
28 And they came to Jerusalem with lutes and harps and trumpets, to the house of Jehovah.
Isaanis Yerusaalem seenanii baganaa, kiraaraa fi malakata qabatanii gara mana qulqullummaa Waaqayyoo ni dhaqan.
29 And the terror of God was on all the kingdoms of the lands, when they had heard that Jehovah fought against the enemies of Israel.
Mootummoonni biyyoota hundaas yommuu akka itti Waaqayyo diinota Israaʼel lole dhagaʼanitti Waaqa sodaachuun isaan qabate.
30 And the realm of Jehoshaphat was quiet; and his God gave him rest round about.
Mootummaan Yehooshaafaaxis waan Waaqni isaa karaa hundaan boqonnaa isaaf kenneef nagaadhaan ni jiraate.
31 And Jehoshaphat reigned over Judah: he was thirty-five years old when he began to reign; and he reigned twenty-five years in Jerusalem; and his mother's name was Azubah, daughter of Shilhi.
Akkasiin Yehooshaafaax mootii taʼee Yihuudaa ni bulche. Inni yeroo mootii Yihuudaa taʼetti nama umuriin isaa waggaa soddomii shan ture; innis Yerusaalem keessa taaʼee waggaa digdamii shan ni bulche. Maqaan haadha isaa Azuubaa ture; isheenis intala Shilhii turte.
32 And he walked in the way of Asa his father, and turned not aside from it, doing what was right in the sight of Jehovah.
Innis karuma abbaa isaa Aasaa irra deeme malee isa irraa hin jalʼanne; fuula Waaqayyoo durattis waan qajeelaa hojjete.
33 Only, the high places were not removed; and as yet the people had not directed their hearts to the God of their fathers.
Taʼus iddoowwan sagadaa kanneen gaarran irraa hin diigamne ture; namoonnis qalbii isaanii gara Waaqa abbootii isaaniitti hin deebine ture.
34 And the rest of the acts of Jehoshaphat, first and last, behold, they are written in the words of Jehu the son of Hanani, which are inserted in the book of the kings of Israel.
Wantoonni bara mootummaa Yehooshaafaax keessa jalqabaa hamma dhumaatti hojjetaman kanneen biraa seenaa Yehuu ilma Hanaanii kan kitaaba mootota Israaʼel keessatti galmeeffame sana keessatti barreeffamaniiru.
35 And after this Jehoshaphat king of Judah joined himself with Ahaziah king of Israel, who did very wickedly.
Ergasii Yehooshaafaax mootichi Yihuudaa, Ahaaziyaa mootii Israaʼel kan hojiin isaa jibbisiisaa taʼe sana wajjin walii galtee godhate.
36 And he joined himself with him to make ships to go to Tarshish; and they made the ships in Ezion-geber.
Innis dooniiwwan daldalaa hojjechuuf isaan walii gale; isaanis Eziyoon Geberitti dooniiwwan ni hojjechiisan.
37 And Eliezer the son of Dodavah, of Mareshah, prophesied against Jehoshaphat, saying, Because thou hast joined thyself with Ahaziah, Jehovah has broken thy works. And the ships were broken, and could not go to Tarshish.
Eliiʼezer raajichi ilmi Doodaawaahuu namichi Maareeshaa sun, “Sababii ati Ahaaziyaa wajjin walii galtee godhatteef Waaqayyo hojii kee ni diiga” jedhee Yehooshaafaaxiin mormee raajii ni dubbate. Dooniiwwanis ni caccaban; gara Tarshiishis dhaquu hin dandeenye.
