< 1 Kings 20 >

1 Then Ben-hadad the King of Aram assembled all his armie, and two and thirtie Kings with him, with horses, and charets, and went vp and besieged Samaria, and fought against it.
Yeroo kanatti Ben-Hadaad mootichi Sooriyaa loltoota ofii isaa guutuu walitti qabate. Mootonni soddomii lama kanneen fardeenii fi gaariiwwan qabanis isa wajjin turan. Innis dhaqee Samaariyaa marsee lole.
2 And he sent messengers to Ahab King of Israel, into the citie,
Innis akkana jedhee gara magaalaa Ahaab mooticha Israaʼelitti ergamoota erge; “Wanni Ben-Hadaad jedhu kanaa dha;
3 And sayd vnto him, Thus sayth Ben-hadad, Thy siluer and thy golde is mine: also thy women, and thy fayre children are mine.
‘Meetiin keetii fi warqeen kee kanuma koo ti; niitonni keetii fi ijoolleen kee babbareedoonis kanuma koo ti.’”
4 And the King of Israel answered, and sayd, My lord King, according to thy saying, I am thine, and all that I haue.
Mootiin Israaʼel immoo, “Yaa gooftaa koo mooticha, akkuma ati jette sana anii fi wanni ani qabu hundi keetuma” jedhee deebiseef.
5 And when the messengers came againe, they said, Thus commandeth Ben-hadad, and saith, When I shall send vnto thee, and command, thou shalt deliuer me thy siluer and thy golde, and thy women, and thy children,
Ergamoonni sun ammas dhufanii akkana jedhaniin; “Wanni Ben-Hadaad jedhu kanaa dha; ‘Ani akka ati meetii fi warqee kee, niitotaa fi ijoollee kee naaf kennituuf ergaa sitti ergeera.
6 Or els I will sende my seruants vnto thee by to morow this time: and they shall search thine house, and the houses of thy seruants: and whatsoeuer is pleasant in thine eyes, they shall take it in their handes, and bring it away.
Garuu ani bor yoona masaraa mootummaa keetiitii fi manneen qondaaltota keetii soquuf qondaaltota koo nan erga. Isaanis waan ati jaallattu hunda fudhatanii deemu.’”
7 Then the King of Israel sent for all the Elders of the land, and sayd, Take heede, I pray you, and see how he seeketh mischiefe: for he sent vnto me for my wiues, and for my children, and for my siluer, and for my golde, and I denyed him not.
Mootichi Israaʼel immoo maanguddoota biyya sanaa hunda walitti waamee akkana jedheen; “Akka namichi kun rakkina uumuu barbaadu mee isinuu ilaalaa! Yeroo inni niitotaa fi ijoollee koo, meetii fi warqee koo fudhachuuf nama ergetti ani hin dhowwanne.”
8 And all the Elders, and all the people sayd to him, Hearken not vnto him, nor consent.
Maanguddoonnii fi namoonni hundinuu, “Ati dubbii isaa hin dhagaʼin yookaan waan inni barbaadu tole hin jedhin” jedhaniin.
9 Wherefore hee sayde vnto the messengers of Ben-hadad, Tell my lorde the King, All that thou didddest sende for to thy seruant at the first time, that I will doe, but this thing I may not do. And the messengers departed, and brought him an answere.
Kanaafuu inni, “‘Garbichi kee waan ati jalqabatti ajajje hunda ni guuta; ani garuu waan ati amma gaafatte kana gochuu hin dandaʼu’ jedhaatii gooftaa koo mootichatti himaa” jedhee ergamoota Ben-Hadaadiif deebii kenne. Isaanis kaʼanii deebii sana fuudhanii Ben-Hadaaditti geessan.
10 And Ben-hadad sent vnto him, and sayde, The gods do so to me and more also, if the dust of Samaria be ynough to all the people that follow me, for euery man an handfull.
Ben-Hadaad immoo, “Yoo biyyoon Samaariyaa namoota koo warra na duukaa buʼan konyee tokko tokko illee wal gaʼe, waaqonni na haa adaban; adabbiin sunis akka malee natti haa cimu” jedhee ergaa biraa Ahaabitti erge.
11 And the King of Israel answered, and sayd, Tell him, Let not him that girdeth his harneis, boast himselfe, as he that putteth it off.
Mootiin Israaʼelis, “‘Namni miʼa lolaa hidhachaa jiru tokko akka nama miʼa lolaa of irraa hiikaa jiru tokkootti of jajuu hin qabu’ jedhaatii itti hima” jedhee deebise.
12 And when he heard that tidings, as he was with the Kings drinking in the pauilions, he sayd vnto his seruants, Bring forth your engines, and they set them against the citie.
Ben-Hadaadis utuma mootota wajjin dunkaana keessatti waa dhugaa jiruu ergaa kana dhagaʼee, “Isin lolaaf qophaaʼaa” jedhee namoota ofii isaa ajaje. Kanaafuu isaan magaalaa sana dhaʼuuf qophaaʼan.
13 And beholde, there came a Prophet vnto Ahab King of Israel, saying, Thus sayeth the Lord, Hast thou seene all this great multitude? beholde, I will deliuer it into thine hande this day, that thou mayest knowe, that I am the Lord.
Yeroo kanatti raajiin tokko gara Ahaab mooticha Israaʼel dhufee, “Waaqayyo akkana jedha: ‘Ati loltoota akka malee baayʼatan kana argitaa? Ani harʼa dabarsee harka keetti isaan nan kenna; atis ergasii akka ani Waaqayyo taʼe ni beekta’” jedhe.
14 And Ahab sayd, By whome? And he sayde, Thus sayth the Lord, By the seruants of the princes of the prouinces. He sayde againe, Who shall order the battel? And he answered, Thou.
Ahaab garuu, “Eenyutu waan kana hojjeta?” jedhee gaafate. Raajiin sunis, “Waaqayyo akkana jedha; ‘Tajaajiltoota bulchitoota kutaalee biyyaa kanneen dargaggoo taʼanitu waan kana hojjeta’” jedhee deebiseef. Innis, “Eenyutu lola jalqaba?” jedhee gaafate. Raajiin sunis, “Situ jalqaba” jedhee deebiseef.
15 Then he nombred the seruantes of the princes of the prouinces, and they were two hundreth, two and thirtie: and after them he nombred the whole people of all the children of Israel, euen seuen thousand.
Kanaafuu Ahaab tajaajiltoota bulchitoota kutaalee biyyaa kanneen dargaggoo taʼan dhibba lamaa fi soddomii lama walitti waame. Ergasiis Israaʼeloota hafan keessaa walumaa galatti namoota kuma torba walitti qabe.
16 And they went out at noone: but Ben-hadad did drinke till he was drunken in the tentes, both he and the Kings: for two and thirtie Kings helped him.
Isaanis utuma Ben-Hadaadii fi mootonni soddomii lama kanneen isa tumsan dunkaana keessatti dhuganii machaaʼaa jiranuu guyyaa saafaadhaan itti qajeelan.
17 So the seruants of the princes of the prouinces went out first: and Ben-hadad sent out, and they shewed him, saying, There are men come out of Samaria.
Tajaajiltoonni bulchitoota kutaalee biyyaa kanneen dargaggoo taʼanis jalqabatti gad baʼan. Ben-Hadaadis gaaddota ergee ture; isaanis deebiʼanii, “Namoonni muraasni Samaariyaadhaa baʼanii dhufuutti jiru” jedhanii isatti himan.
18 And he sayde, Whether they be come out for peace, take them aliue: or whether they bee come out to fight, take them yet aliue.
Inni immoo, “Yoo isaan nagaaf dhufan utuma isaan lubbuun jiranuu isaan qabaa; yoo isaan lolaaf dhufanis akkasuma utuma isaan lubbuun jiranuu qabaa” jedhe.
19 So they came out of the citie, to wit, the seruants of the princes of the prouinces, and the hoste which followed them.
Tajaajiltoonni bulchitoota kutaalee biyyaa kanneen dargaggoo taʼan sunis loltoota dura buʼanii magaalaa sanaa baʼan;
20 And they slew euery one his enemie: and the Aramites fled, and Israel pursued them: but Ben-hadad ye King of Aram escaped on an horse with his horsemen.
tokkoon tokkoon isaaniis diina isaanii dhaʼanii ajjeesan. Kana irratti warri Sooriyaa ni baqatan; Israaʼeloonni immoo isaan ariʼan. Ben-Hadaad mootichi Sooriyaa garuu farda yaabbatee abbootii fardaa wajjin baqatee jalaa baʼe.
21 And the King of Israel went out, and smote the horses and charets, and with a great slaughter slew he the Aramites.
Mootiin Israaʼel ittuma fufee abbootii fardaatii fi gaariiwwanii lolee moʼachuudhaan warra Sooriyaa akka malee miidhe.
22 (For there had come a Prophet to the King of Israel, and had sayd vnto him, Goe, be of good courage, and consider, and take heede what thou doest: for when the yeere is gone about, the King of Aram wil come vp against thee)
Ergasii raajiin sun gara mooticha Israaʼel dhufee, “Of jabeessi; waan gochuu qabdus sirriitti hubadhu; mootiin Sooriyaa bara dhufu keessa deebiʼee si lolaatii” jedhe.
23 Then the seruants of the King of Aram said vnto him, Their gods are gods of the moutaines, and therefore they ouercame vs: but let vs fight against them in the playne, and doubtlesse we shall ouercome them.
Yeroo kanatti qondaaltonni mootii Sooriyaa akkana jedhanii isa gorsan; “Waaqonni isaanii waaqota gaarranii ti. Sababiin isaan akka malee nutti jabaataniif kana. Nu yoo lafa diriiraa irratti isaan lolle garuu dhugumaan isaan caalaa jabaanna.
24 And this doe, Take the Kings away, euery one out of his place, and place captaines for them.
Ati amma waan kana godhi: Mootota hunda aangoo isaanii irraa ariʼiitii iddoo isaanii ajajjoota kaan buusi.
25 And nomber thy selfe an armie, like the armie that thou hast lost, with such horses, and such charets, and we wil fight against them in the plaine, and doubtlesse we shall ouercome them: and he hearkened vnto their voyce, and did so.
Akkasumas loltoota akka loltoota kee kanneen dhuman sanaa jechuunis qooda fardaa farda, qooda gaarii immoo gaarii qopheessi. Akkasiin nu dirree irratti Israaʼelin loluu dandeenya; isaan caalaas ni jabaanna.” Innis dubbii isaanii fudhatee akkuma isaan jedhan sana godhe.
26 And after the yeere was gone about, Ben-hadad nombred the Aramites, and went vp to Aphek to fight against Israel.
Bara itti aanu keessa Ben-Hadaad namoota Sooriyaa walitti qabatee Israaʼelin loluuf Afeeqitti ol baʼe.
27 And the children of Israel were nombred, and were all assembled and went against them, and the children of Israel pitched before them, like two litle flockes of kiddes: but the Aramites filled the countrey.
Israaʼeloonnis walitti qabamanii waan nyaatan qabatanii jaratti duulan. Israaʼeloonni akkuma bushaayee karra xixinnaa lamaatti fuullee isaanii qubatan; warri Sooriyaa garuu baadiyyaa keessa guutan.
28 And there came a man of God, and spake vnto the King of Israel, saying, Thus sayeth the Lord, Because the Aramites haue sayd, The Lord is the God of the mountaines, and not God of the valleis, therefore will I deliuer all this great multitude into thine hand, and ye shall know that I am the Lord.
Namni Waaqaa sunis dhufee mootii Israaʼeliin akkana jedhe; “Waaqayyo akkana jedha; ‘Sababii warri Sooriyaa Waaqayyo Waaqa gaarraniiti malee Waaqa sululootaa miti jedhaniif, ani tuuta akka malee guddaa kana hunda dabarsee harka keetti nan kenna; isinis akka ani Waaqayyo taʼe ni beektu.’”
29 And they pitched one ouer against the other seuen dayes, and in the seuenth day the battel was ioyned: and the children of Israel slew of the Aramites an hundreth thousand footemen in one day.
Isaanis bultii torbaaf fuullee walii qubatanii, bultii torbaffaatti waraanni jalqabame. Israaʼeloonnis guyyuma tokkotti warra Sooriyaa keessaa loltoota lafoo kuma dhibba tokko ajjeesan.
30 But the rest fled to Aphek into the citie: and there fel a wall vpon seuen and twentie thousand men that were left: and Ben-hadad fled into the citie, and came into a secret chamber.
Warri hafan kaan magaalaa Afeeqitti baqatanii achittis nama kuma digdamii torba irratti dallaan dhagaa jige. Ben-Hadaad immoo magaalaa sanatti baqatee kutaa mana tokkoo kan gara keessaa keessatti dhokate.
31 And his seruants sayd vnto him, Beholde nowe, we haue heard say that the Kings of the house of Israel are mercifull Kings: we pray thee, let vs put sacke cloth about our loynes, and ropes about our heads, and goe out to the King of Israel: it may be that he will saue thy life.
Qondaaltonni isaas akkana jedhaniin; “Ilaa, nu akka mootonni mana Israaʼel mootota nama maaran taʼan dhageenyeerra. Mee kottaa nu mudhii keenyatti uffata gaddaa hidhannee, mataa keenyatti immoo funyoo marannee mootii Israaʼel bira haa dhaqnu. Inni lubbuu kee ni oolcha taʼaatii.”
32 Then they gyrded sackecloth about their loynes, and put ropes about their heads, and came to the King of Israel, and sayd, Thy seruant Ben-hadad sayth, I pray thee, let me liue: and he sayd, Is he yet aliue? he is my brother.
Kanaafuu isaan mudhii isaaniitti uffata gaddaa hidhatanii, mataa isaaniitti funyoo maratanii mootii Israaʼel bira dhaqanii, “Garbichi kee Ben-Hadaad, ‘Maaloo lubbuu koo naa oolchi’ siin jedha” jedhaniin. Mootichi immoo, “Inni hamma ammaattuu lubbuun jiraa? Inni obboleessa koo ti” jedhee deebise.
33 Now the men tooke diliget heede, if they could catch any thing of him, and made haste, and sayd, Thy brother Ben-hadad. And he sayd, Go, bring him. So Ben-hadad came out vnto him, and he caused him to come vp vnto the chariot.
Namoonni sunis waan kana akka mallattoo gaariitti fudhatanii dubbii isaa dafanii qabatanii “Eeyyee, Ben-Hadaad obboleessa kee ti!” jedhan. Mootichis, “Dhaqaatii isa fidaa” jedhe. Yommuu Ben-Hadaad dhufettis Ahaab akka inni ol baʼee gaarii isaa keessa seenu godhe.
34 And Ben-hadad sayd vnto him, The cities, which my father tooke from thy father, I wil restore, and thou shalt make streetes for thee in Damascus, as my father did in Samaria. Then said Ahab, I will let thee goe with this couenant. So he made a couenant with him, and let him goe.
Ben-Hadaadis akkana jedheen; “Ani magaalaawwan abbaan koo abbaa kee irraa fudhate sana siifin deebisa. Akkuma abbaan koo Samaariyaa keessatti hojjete sana, ati Damaasqoo keessatti lafa gabaa ofii keetii dhaabbachuu dandeessa.” Ahaab immoo, “Ani walii galteedhaan gad si dhiisa” jedheen. Kanaafuu isa wajjin walii galtee godhatee gad isa dhiise.
35 Then a certaine man of the children of the Prophets sayd vnto his neighbour by the comandement of the Lord, Smite me, I pray thee. But the man refused to smite him.
Ilmaan raajotaa keessaa tokko ajaja Waaqayyootiin michuu isaa tokkoon, “Maaloo na dhaʼi” jedhe. Namichi sun garuu isa dhaʼuu dide.
36 Then sayd he vnto him, Because thou hast not obeyed the voyce of the Lord, beholde, as soone as thou art departed from me, a lyon shall slay thee. So when he was departed from him, a lyon found him and slew him.
Kanaafuu raajiin sun, “Waan ati dubbii Waaqayyootiif hin ajajamniif akkuma ati na biraa deemtuun leenci si ajjeesa” jedheen. Erga namichi kaʼee deemee booddee leenci dhufee isa argate isa ajjeese.
37 Then he founde another man, and sayde, Smite mee, I pray thee. And the man smote him, and in smiting wounded him.
Raajiin sun nama biraa argee, “Maaloo na dhaʼi” jedheen. Kanaafuu namichi sun dhaʼee isa madeesse.
38 So the Prophet departed, and wayted for the King by the way, and disguised himselfe with ashes vpon his face.
Ergasii raajiin sun ija haguuggatee eenyummaa isaa dhokfatee dhaqee qarqara karaa dhaabatee mooticha eegaa ture.
39 And when the King came by, he cried vnto the King, and said, Thy seruant went into the middes of the battel: and beholde, there went away a man, whom another man brought vnto me, and sayd, Keepe this man: if he be lost, and want, thy life shall go for his life, or els thou shalt pay a talent of siluer.
Utuma mootichi karaa sana darbaa jiruu raajiin sun isa waamee akkana jedheen; “Garbichi kee lola walakkaa seenee jennaan namni tokko nama boojiʼame tokko fidee, ‘Namicha kana eegi. Yoo inni bade lubbuun kee qooda lubbuu isaa baafamti yookaan meetii taalaantii tokkoo baafta’ jedhe.
40 And as thy seruant had here and there to do, he was gone: And the King of Israel said vnto him, So shall thy iudgement be: thou hast giuen sentence.
Namichi sunis utuu garbichi kee hojiin qabamee asii fi achi fiigaa jiruu bade.” Mootichi Israaʼelis deebisee, “Wanni sitti murtaaʼu sanuma; ati mataan kee iyyuu murteerta” jedheen.
41 And hee hasted, and tooke the ashes away from his face: and the King of Israel knewe him that he was of the Prophets:
Raajiin sunis dafee ija isaa irraa haguuggii gad buufate; mootichi Israaʼelis akka inni raajota keessaa isa tokko taʼe hubate.
42 And he said vnto him, Thus saith the Lord, Because thou hast let goe out of thine handes a man whom I appoynted to dye, thy life shall goe for his life, and thy people for his people.
Innis mootichaan akkana jedhe; “Waaqayyo akkana jedha: ‘Ati namicha ani akka inni duʼu itti mure gad lakkifteerta. Kanaafuu lubbuun kee qooda lubbuu isaa, sabni kees qooda saba isaa galaafatama.’”
43 And the King of Israel went to his house heauie and in displeasure, and came to Samaria.
Mootichi Israaʼel sunis akka malee aaree dheekkamaa gara masaraa mootummaa isaa kan Samaariyaa keessa jiru sanaa dhaqe.
