Kings II 20
1 And there was a transgressor [so] called there, and his name was Sabee, a Benjamite, the son of Bochori: and he blew the trumpet, and said, We have no portion in David, neither have we [any] inheritance in the son of Jessae: to your tents, O Israel, every one.
Yeroo kanatti namichi dabaan Shebaa jedhamu, ilmi Biikrii namicha gosa Beniyaam tokko achi ture. Innis malakata afuufee sagalee guddaan akkana jedhee iyye; “Nu Daawit irraa qooda hin qabnu; ilma Isseey irraa dhaala tokko illee hin qabnu! Yaa Israaʼel, tokkoon tokkoon namaa gara dunkaana isaatti!”
2 And all the men of Israel went up from following David after Sabee the son of Bochori: but the men of Juda adhered to their king, from Jordan even to Jerusalem.
Kanaafuu namoonni Israaʼel hundinuu Shebaa ilma Biikrii sana duukaa buʼuuf jedhanii Daawit irraa garagalan. Namoonni Yihuudaa garuu Yordaanosii hamma Yerusaalemitti mootii isaanii wajjin deeman.
3 And David went into his house at Jerusalem: and the king took the ten women his concubines, whom he had left to keep the house, and he put them in a place of custody, and maintained them, and went not in to them; and they were kept living as widows, till the day of their death.
Daawitis yommuu masaraa isaa kan Yerusaalem keessaatti deebiʼetti, saajjatoowwan isaa kurnan akka isaan masaraa eeganiif dhiisee biraa deeme sana fuudhee mana tokkotti galchee akka isaan eegaman godhe. Inni waan isaan nyaatan kenneef malee isaan wajjin hin ciifne. Isaanis hamma gaafa duʼaniitti akka niitota dhirsoonni irraa duʼaniitti kophaa jiraatan.
4 And the king said to Amessai, Call to me the men of Juda for three days, and do you be present here.
Ergasiis mootichi Amaasaadhaan, “Namoota Yihuudaa guyyaa sadii keessatti walitti naa qabi; atis asitti argami” jedhe.
5 And Amessai went to call Juda, and delayed beyond the time which David appointed him.
Amaasaan garuu yommuu namoota Yihuudaa waamuu deemetti yeroo mootichi isaaf kenne caalaa ture.
6 And David said to Amessai, Now shall Sabee the son of Bochori do us more harm than Abessalom: now then take you with you the servants of your lord, and follow after him, lest he find for himself strong cities, so will he blind our eyes.
Daawitis Abiishaayidhaan, “Shebaan ilmi Biikrii miidhaa Abesaaloom nu miidhe sana caalaa nu miidha. Ati namoota gooftaa keetii fudhadhuutii isa ariʼi; yoo kanaa achii inni magaalaa daʼannoo qabu argatee nu jalaa miliqa” jedhe.
7 And there went out after him Amessai and the men of Joab, and the Cherethites, and the Phelethites, and all the mighty men: and they went out from Jerusalem to pursue after Sabee the son of Bochori.
Kanaafuu namoonni Yooʼaabii fi Kereetonni, Pheletonnii fi namoonni waraanaa jajjaboon hundi ajaja Abiishaayi jalatti hiriiranii qajeelan. Isaanis Yerusaalemii kaʼanii Shebaa ilma Biikrii sana ariʼuuf qajeelan.
8 And they [were] by the great stone that is in Gabaon: and Amessai went in before them: and Joab had upon him a military cloak over his apparel, and over it he was girded with a dagger fastened upon his loins in its scabbard: and the dagger came out, it even came out and fell.
Utuma isaan Gibeʼoon keessa kattaa guddaa bira jiranuu Amaasaan isaan simachuuf dhufe. Yooʼaab uffata isaa kan waraanaa uffate; qalqalli goraadeen isaa keessa jirus sabbataan mudhii isaatti hidhamee ture. Akkuma inni gara fuula duraatti tarkaanfateenis goraadichi qalqala isaa keessaa lafa buʼe.
9 And Joab said to Amessai, Are you in health, [my] brother? and the right hand of Joab took hold of the beard of Amessai to kiss him.
Yooʼaabis Amaasaan, “Yaa obboleessoo, akkam jirta?” jedhe. Kana irratti Yooʼaab isa dhungachuuf harka isaa mirgaatiin hareeda Amesaay qabate.
10 And Amessai observed not the dagger that was in the hand of Joab: and Joab struck him with it on the loins, and his bowels were shed out upon the ground, and he did not repeat the blow, and he died: and Joab and Abessai his brother pursued after Sabee the son of Bochori.
Amesaay akka Yooʼaab goraadee harkaa qabu hin hubanne ture; kanaafuu Yooʼaab goraadee sana garaa isaatti dire; marʼumaan isaas lafatti jige. Amaasaanis utuu lammata hin waraanamin duʼe. Ergasii immoo Yooʼaabii fi obboleessi isaa Abiishaayi Shebaa ilma Biikrii sana ariʼan.
11 And there stood over him one of the servants of Joab, and said, Who [is] he that is for Joab, and who [is] on the side of David following Joab?
Namoota Yooʼaab keessaa inni tokko Amesaay bira dhaabatee, “Namni Yooʼaabin jaallatu, kan garee Daawit taʼe hundi Yooʼaabin duukaa haa buʼu!” jedhe.
12 And Amessai [was] weltering in blood in the midst of the way. And a man saw that all the people stood still; and he removed Amessai out of the path into a field, and he cast a garment upon him, because he saw every one that came to him standing still.
Yeroo kanatti reeffi Amaasaa dhiigaan faalamee karaa irra ciisa ture; namichi tokkos akka loltoonni hundi achi dhadhaabatan arge. Innis yommuu akka warri gara Amesaay dhufan hundi dhadhaabatan argetti karaa irraa gara lafa qotiisaatti isa harkisee wayyaa irra buuse.
13 And when he was quickly removed from the road, every man of Israel passed after Joab to pursue after Sabee the son of Bochori.
Erga reeffi Amesaay karaa irraa kaafamee booddee namoonni hundinuu Shebaa ilma Biikrii sana ariʼuuf Yooʼaab faana qajeelan.
14 And he went through all the tribes of Israel to Abel, and to Bethmacha; and all in Charri too were assembled, and followed after him.
Saabeʼeenis gosoota Israaʼel hunda keessa darbee gara Abeel Beet Maʼaakaatii fi gara biyya Beeriit hundaa dhaqe; namoonni Beeriitis walitti qabamanii isa duukaa buʼan.
15 And they came and besieged him in Abel and Phermacha: and they raised a mound against the city and it stood close to the wall; and all the people with Joab proposed to throw down the wall.
Loltoonni Yooʼaab wajjin turan hundinuus dhufanii Abeel Beet Maʼaakaatti Saabeʼee marsan. Isaanis hamma karra magaalaa sanaatti naannessanii biyyoo tuulan; yommuu dallaa magaalaa sanaa jigsuuf tumaa turanittis,
16 And a wise woman cried from the wall, and said, Hear, hear; say, I pray you, to Joab, Draw near hither, and I will speak to him.
dubartiin ogeettiin tokko magaalattiidhaa isaan waamtee, “Dhagaʼaa! Dhagaʼaa! Akka ani waa isatti himuu dandaʼuuf Yooʼaab as haa dhufu itti himaa” jette.
17 And he drew near to her, and the woman said to him, Are you Joab? and he said, I [am]. And she said to him, Hear the words of your handmaid; and Joab said, I do hear.
Inni gara ishee dhaqe; isheenis, “Ati Yooʼaabii?” jettee gaafatte. Innis, “Ani isuma” jedhee deebise. Isheen immoo, “Waan tajaajiltuun kee dubbattu dhagaʼi” jette. Innis, “Ani dhagaʼaan jira.”
18 And she spoke, saying, Of old time they said thus, Surely one was asked in Abel, and Dan, whether the faithful in Israel failed in what they purposed; they will surely ask in Abel, even in like manner, whether they have failed.
Isheenis itti fuftee akkana jette; “Bara durii namoonni, ‘Gara Abeel dhaqaa gorsa gaafadhaa’ jedhu ture; akkasiinis dubbiin ni dhuma ture.
19 I am a peaceful one of the strong ones in Israel; but you seek to destroy a city and a mother city in Israel: why do you seek to ruin the inheritance of the Lord?
Ani warra Israaʼel keessa nagaa fi amanamummaan jiraatan keessaa tokkoo dha. Ati magaalaa Israaʼel keessatti haadha taate tokko balleessuuf yaadaa jirta. Ati maaliif dhaala Waaqayyoo liqimsuu barbaadda?”
20 And Joab answered and said, Far be it, far be it from me, that I should ruin or destroy.
Yooʼaab immoo akkana jedhee deebise; “Wanni kun narraa haa fagaatu! Magaalattii balleessuun yookaan liqimsuun narraa haa fagaatu!
21 Is not the case thus, that a man of mount Ephraim, Sabee, son of Bochori by name, has even lifted up his hand against king David? Give him only to me, and I will depart from the city. And the woman said to Joab, Behold, his head shall be thrown to you over the wall.
Wanni kun akkana miti. Namichi Shebaa jedhamu ilmi Biikrii kan biyya gaaraa Efreem sun mootiitti, Daawititti harka isaa ol fudhateera. Namicha tokkicha kana dabarsaa kennaa; anis magaalaa kana gad dhiisee nan baʼa.” Dubartiin sunis Yooʼaabiin, “Mataan namicha sanaa dallaa irraan gad siif darbatama” jette.
22 And the woman went in to all the people, and she spoke to all the city in her wisdom; and they took off the head of Sabee the son of Bochori; and took it away and threw it to Joab: and he blew the trumpet, and the people separated from the city away from him, every man to his tent: and Joab returned to Jerusalem to the king.
Ergasii dubartiin sun gorsa ishee kan ogummaan guutame sanaan namoota hunda bira dhaqxe; isaanis mataa Shebaa ilma Biikrii sanaa kutanii Yooʼaabiif gad darbatan. Kanaafuu inni malakata afuufe; namoonni isaa magaalattii dhiisanii tokkoon tokkoon namaa mana ofii isaatti gale. Yooʼaab immoo gara Yerusaalem mooticha biratti deebiʼe.
23 And Joab [was] over all the forces of Israel: and Banaias the son of Jodae [was] over the Cherethites and over the Phelethites.
Yooʼaab loltoota Israaʼel hunda irratti, Benaayaa ilmi Yehooyaadaa immoo Kereetotaa fi Pheletota irratti ajajaa taʼe;
24 And Adoniram [was] over the tribute: and Josaphath the son of Achiluth [was] recorder.
Adooraam namoota hojii humnaa hojjetan irratti muudame; Yehooshaafaax ilmi Ahiiluud immoo galmeessaa taʼe;
25 And Susa [was] scribe: and Sadoc and Abiathar [were] priests.
Shewwaan barreessaa, Zaadoqii fi Abiyaataar immoo luboota turan;
26 Moreover Iras the [son of] Iarin was priest to David.
akkasumas Iiraas namichi gosa Yaaʼiri sun luba Daawit ture.
