2 Chronicles 16
1 In the thirty-sixth year of Asa's reign, Baasha, king of Israel, invaded Judah. He fortified Ramah to stop anyone coming from or going to Asa, king of Judah.
Bara mootummaa Aasaa keessa waggaa soddomii jaʼaffaatti Baʼishaan mootichi Israaʼel biyya Yihuudaatti duulee akka namni tokko iyyuu daangaa biyya Aasaa mooticha Yihuudaa keessaa hin baane yookaan akka achi hin seenne gochuudhaaf jedhee Raamaa jabeessee ijaare.
2 Asa took the silver and gold from the treasuries of the Lord's Temple and the king's palace and sent them to Ben-hadad, king of Syria, who lived in Damascus, with a message that said:
Aasaanis meetii fi warqee mankuusa mana qulqullummaa Waaqayyootii fi masaraa mootummaa isaa keessaa baasee Ben-Hadaad mooticha Sooriyaa kan Damaasqoo taaʼee bulchaa ture sanaaf ni erge.
3 “Make an alliance between me and you like the one between my father and your father. Look at the silver and gold I've sent you. Go ahead and break your agreement with Baasha, king of Israel, so that he will leave me and go home.”
Innis, “Akkuma walii galtee kanaan dura abbaa koo fi abbaa kee gidduu ture sanaatti ammas anaa fi si gidduu walii galteen haa jiraatu. Kunoo ani meetii fi warqee siif ergeera. Akka inni narraa deebiʼuuf dhaqiitii walii galtee Baʼishaan mooticha Israaʼel wajjin qabdu sana diigi” jedheen.
4 King Ben-hadad did as Asa had asked, and he sent his armies and their commanders to attack the towns of Israel. They conquered Ijon, Dan, Abel-maim, and all the storehouse towns of Naphtali.
Ben-Hadaadis yaada Aasaa mootichaa fudhatee ajajjuuwwan loltoota isaa magaalaawwan Israaʼelitti duulchise. Isaanis magaalaawwan Iiyoon, Daan, Abeel Maayimii fi magaalaawwan mankuusa Niftaalem hunda rukutan.
5 When Baasha heard about it, he stopped fortifying Ramah and gave up his project.
Baʼishaanis yommuu waan kana dhagaʼetti Raamaa ijaaruu dhiisee hojii ofii isaa dhaabe.
6 So King Asa went with all the men of Judah, and they carried away from Ramah the stones and the timbers Baasha had used for building, and with them he built up Geba and Mizpah.
Aasaan Mootichis namoota Yihuudaa hunda ni fide; isaanis dhagaawwanii fi muka Baʼishaan ittiin hojjechaa ture Raamaadhaa fudhatanii deeman. Aasaanis Gebaa fi Miisphaa ittiin ijaarrate.
7 But right then Hanani the seer came to Asa, king of Judah, and told him, “Because you have put your trust in the king of Aram and have not put your trust in the Lord your God, your opportunity to destroy the army of the king of Aram has gone.
Yeroo sanattis Hanaaniin ilaalaan sun Aasaa mooticha Yihuudaa bira dhufee akkana jedheen; “Waan ati Waaqayyo Waaqa kee dhiiftee mootii Sooriyaa amanatteef loltoonni Sooriyaa si harkaa baʼaniiru.
8 Didn't the Ethiopians and Libyans have a huge army with many chariots and horsemen? Yet because you trusted in the Lord, he made you victorious over them.
Namoonni Itoophiyaa fi Liibiyaa gaariiwwanii fi abbootii fardaa kanneen akka malee baayʼee qaban sun loltoota jajjaboo hin turree? Taʼus waan ati Waaqayyoon abdatteef inni dabarsee harka keetti isaan siif kenne.
9 For the Lord looks all over the earth for the opportunity to show his power on behalf of those who are completely and sincerely devoted to him. You have acted stupidly in doing this. So from now on you will always be at war.”
Iji Waaqayyoo warra garaa guutuun isa amanatan jajjabeessuuf guutummaa addunyaa ni ilaalaatii. Sababii ati hojii gowwummaa hojjetteef kana booddee waraanni sirraa hin caamu.”
10 Asa was angry with the seer. He was so angry with him over this that he put him in prison. At this same time Asa started to mistreat some of the people.
Aasaan sababii kanaaf ilaaltuu sanatti ni aare; akka malee dheekkamees mana hidhaa keessa isa buuse. Yeruma sanatti Aasaan namoota tokko tokko gara jabinaan ni cunqurse.
11 The rest of what Asa did, from beginning to end, is written down in the Book of the Kings of Judah and Israel.
Wanni bara mootummaa Aasaa keessa jalqabaa hamma dhumaatti hojjetame kitaaba mootota Yihuudaa fi Israaʼel keessatti barreeffameera.
12 In the thirty-ninth year of his reign, Asa had trouble with disease in his feet, which only became worse and worse. Yet even in his sickness he did not turn to the Lord, but only the physicians.
Aasaanis bara mootummaa isaa keessa waggaa soddomii saglaffaatti dhukkuba miillaatiin akka malee ni dhiphate. Taʼus inni dhukkuba akka malee hamaa kana keessatti illee ogeeyyii fayyaa malee gargaarsa Waaqayyoo hin barbaanne.
13 Asa died in the forty-first year of his reign.
Ergasii Aasaan bara mootummaa isaa keessa waggaa afurtamii tokkoffaatti duʼee abbootii ofii isaa wajjin boqote.
14 He was buried in the tomb that he had prepared for himself in the City of David. They placed him on a bed full of spices, perfumed oils, and fragrances. Then they made a great fire to honor him.
Isaanis awwaala inni Magaalaa Daawit keessatti dhagaa cabsee ofii isaatii qopheeffatetti isa ni awwaalan. Wasaasaa urgooftuuwwanii fi shittoodhaan guutame irra isa ni ciibsan; ulfina isaatiifis ibidda guddaa bobeessan.
