2 Kings 23
1 And the king sent, and they gathered unto him all the elders of Judah and Jerusalem.
Ergasiis mootichi maanguddoota Yihuudaa fi Yerusaalem hunda walitti ni waame.
2 And the king went up into the house of the Lord, and all the men of Judah and all the inhabitants of Jerusalem with him, and the priests, and the prophets, and all the people, from the small to the great: and he read before their ears all the words of the book of the covenant which had been found in the house of the Lord.
Innis namoota Yihuudaa, jiraattota Yerusaalem, lubootaa fi raajota wajjin jechuunis nama xinnaa fi guddaa hunda wajjin gara mana qulqullummaa Waaqayyootti ol baʼe. Dubbii Kitaaba Kakuu kan mana qulqullummaa Waaqayyoo keessatti argame sanaa hundas akka isaan dhagaʼanitti dubbiseef.
3 And the king stood upon the stand, and he made a covenant before the Lord, to walk after the Lord, and to keep his commandments, and his testimonies and his statutes with all [their] heart and all [their] soul, to maintain the words of this covenant that are written in this book. And all the people entered into the covenant.
Mootichis utubaa bira dhaabatee akka Waaqayyoon duukaa buʼu, akka garaa isaa guutuu fi lubbuu isaa guutuudhaan ajaja isaa, dambiiwwan isaatii fi labsiiwwan isaa eegee akkasiin dubbiiwwan kakuu kanneen kitaaba kana keessatti barreeffaman hojii irra oolchu fuula Waaqayyoo duratti kakuu ni haaromse; ergasiis sabni hundi kakuu ni haaromse.
4 And the king commanded Chilkiyahu the high-priest, and the priests of the second order, and the door-keepers, to carry forth out of the temple of the Lord all the vessels that had been made for Ba'al, and for the Asherah, and for all the host of heaven: and they burnt them without Jerusalem in the fields of Kidron, and carried their ashes unto Beth-el.
Mootichis akka isaan miʼoota Baʼaaliif, Asheeraadhaa fi raayyaawwan samiitiif hojjetaman hunda mana qulqullummaa Waaqayyoo keessaa baasaniif Hilqiyaa lubicha ol aanaa, luboota sadarkaan isatti aananii fi eegdota balbalaa ajaje. Innis miʼoota sana Yerusaalem keessaa baasee dirree Sulula Qeedroon irratti gube; daaraa isaas fuudhee Beetʼeelitti geesse.
5 And he put down the idolatrous priests, whom the kings of Judah had appointed that they might burn incense on the high-places in the cities of Judah, and in the places round about Jerusalem; those also that burnt incense unto Ba'al, to the sun, and to the moon, and to the planets, and to all the host of heaven.
Luboota waaqota tolfamoo kanneen akka isaan iddoowwan sagadaa kanneen magaalaawwan Yihuudaatii fi naannoo Yerusaalem kanneen gaarran irraatiif ixaana aarsaniif mootonni Yihuudaa muudan sana jechuunis warra Baʼaaliif, aduu fi jiʼaaf, tuuta urjiitii fi raayyaawwan samii hundaaf ixaana aarsaa turanis ni barbadeesse.
6 And he brought out the Asherah from the house of the Lord, without Jerusalem, unto the brook Kidron, and burnt it at the brook Kidron, and ground it small to powder, and cast its powder upon the graves of the children of the people.
Siidaa Aasheeraas mana qulqullummaa Waaqayyootii fuudhee Yerusaalem keessaa baasee Sulula Qeedroonitti geessee achitti ni gube. Isas daakee bulleessee daaraa isaa awwaala namootaa irratti firfirse.
7 And he pulled down the houses of the sodomites, that were by the house of the Lord, where the women wove hangings for the Asherah.
Innis mana dhiirota mana sagadaa keessatti sagaagalanii kan mana qulqullummaa Waaqayyoo keessa jiru, iddoo itti dubartoonni Asheeraadhaaf golgaa hojjetan sana ni diige.
8 And he brought all the priests out of the cities of Judah, and defiled the high-places where the priests had burnt incense, from Geba' to Beer-Sheba', and he pulled down the high-places of the gates that were at the entrance of the gate of Joshua the governor of the city, which were on a man's left at the gate of the city.
Yosiyaasis luboota hunda magaalaawwan Yihuudaatii ni fide; innis iddoowwan sagadaa kanneen Gebaadhaa hamma Bersheebaatti turan kanneen luboonni ixaana itti aarsaa turan sana ni xureesse. Akkasumas galmawwan waaqeffannaa karrawwan cinaa kanneen balbala Karra Iyyaasuu bulchaa magaalaa sanaa dura karaa gama bitaa magaalattiin turan sana ni diige.
9 Nevertheless the priests of the high-places came not up to the altar of the Lord in Jerusalem; but they ate unleavened bread in the midst of their brethren.
Luboonni iddoowwan sagadaa kunneen yoo iddoo aarsaa Waaqayyoo kan Yerusaalem keessaa irra tajaajiluu baatan illee isaan luboota akka isaanii wajjin Maxinoo nyaatan ture.
10 And he defiled the Thopheth, which was in the valley Ben-hinnom, so that no man should cause his son or his daughter to pass through the fire to Molech.
Innis akka namni tokko iyyuu ilma isaa yookaan intala isaa aarsaa godhee ibiddaan Moolekiif hin dhiʼeessineef Toofeti kan Sulula Ben Hinoom keessatti argamu sana ni xureesse.
11 And he put down the horses that the kings of Judah had dedicated to the sun, from the entrance of the house of the Lord, by the chamber of Nethan-melech the chamberlain, who was over the suburbs; and the chariots of the sun he burnt with fire.
Akkasumas fardeen mootonni Yihuudaa aduudhaaf kennan sana balbala mana qulqullummaa Waaqayyootti geessu irraa fuudhee ni balleesse. Fardeen sun oobdii kutaa mana Naataan-Meelek qondaaltichaa biraa keessa turan. Ergasiis Yosiyaas gaariiwwan aduu sana ibiddaan ni gube.
12 And the altars that were on the roof of the upper-chamber of Achaz, which the kings of Judah had made, and the altars which Menasseh had made in the two courts of the house of the Lord, did the king pull down, and tore them away from there, and cast their dust into the brook Kidron.
Mootichis iddoowwan aarsaa mootonni Yihuudaa bantii manaa irra, kutaa mana Aahaaz kan ol aanu bira dhaabanii fi iddoowwan aarsaa Minaaseen mana qulqullummaa Waaqayyoo keessa oobdiiwwan lamaan keessa dhaabe sana ni buqqise. Iddoowwan aarsaa sanas achii fuudhee ni caccabsee, caccabaa isaanii Sulula Qeedroon keessatti ni gate.
13 And the high-places that were before Jerusalem, which were to the right of the mount of destruction, which Solomon the king of Israel had built for 'Ashtoreth the abomination of the Zidonians, and for Kemosh the abomination of the Moabites, and for Milcom the abomination of the children of 'Ammon, did the king defile.
Akkasumas mootichi iddoowwan sagadaa kanneen gama baʼa Yerusaalemitti karaa kibba Gaara Faalamuutiin turan kanneen Solomoon mootichi Israaʼel Ashtooreti waaqittii xurooftuu Siidoonotaa, Kemoosh waaqicha xuraaʼaa Moʼaabii fi Moolek waaqicha xuraaʼaa ijoollee Amooniitiif hojjete sana ni xureesse.
14 And he broke in pieces the standing images, and cut down the Asherah-groves, and filled their places with the bones of men.
Yosiyaas soodduuwwan dhagaa caccabsee siidaawwan Aasheeraas diigee iddoo sana lafee namaatiin guute.
15 So also the altar that was at Beth-el, the high-place which Jerobo'am the son of Nebat, who induced Israel to sin, had made, —also that altar and the high-place did he pull down; and he burnt the high-place, ground it small to powder, and burnt then the Asherah.
Akkasumas iddoo aarsaa Beetʼeel keessa ture sanaa fi iddoo sagadaa kan Yerobiʼaam ilmi Nebaat inni Israaʼelin cubbuu hojjechiise sun ijaare iddoo aarsaa sanaa fi iddoo sagadaa ni diige. Iddoo sagadaa sanas caccabsee, daakee bulleesse; siidaa Aasheeraas ni gube.
16 And Josiah turned about, and beheld the graves that were there in the mount, and he sent, and took the bones out of the sepulchres, and burnt them upon the altar, and polluted it, according to the word of the Lord which the man of God proclaimed, who had proclaimed these events.
Yosiyaasis of irra garagalee awwaalawwan tulluu irra jiran achitti arge; nama ergees awwaalawwan sana keessaa lafeewwan fichisiisee akkuma dubbii Waaqayyoo kan namni Waaqaa inni duraan dursee waan kana dubbate sun labsetti iddoo aarsaa irratti gubee isa xureesse.
17 Then said he, What kind of monument is that which I see? And the men of the city said to him, It is the grave of the man of God, who came from Judah, and proclaimed these things which thou hast done against the altar of Beth-el.
Mootichi, “Dhagaan awwaalaa kan ani arguutti jiru kun maal?” jedhee ni gaafate. Namoonni magaalaa sanaa immoo, “Inni awwaala nama Waaqaa kan Yihuudaadhaa dhufee waanuma ati iddoo aarsaa Beetʼeel goote kana duraan dursee labse sanaa ti” jedhan.
18 And he said, Let him rest: no man shall disturb his bones. So they saved his bones, with the bones of the prophet that came out of Samaria.
Innis, “Isa dhiisaa; namni tokko iyyuu lafee isaa hin tuqin” jedhe. Kanaafuu isaan lafee isaattii fi lafee raajicha Samaariyaadhaa dhufe sanaa illee ni dhiisan.
19 And also all the houses of the high-places that were in the cities of Samaria, which the kings of Israel had made as provocations to anger, did Josiah remove, and did to them in accordance with all the acts that he had done in Beth-el.
Yosiyaas akkuma Beetʼeelitti godhe sana iddoowwan sagadaa kanneen gaarran irraa kanneen mootonni Israaʼel magaalaawwan Samaariyaa keessatti ijaaranii Waaqayyoon dheekkamsaaf kakaasan sana hunda ni diige.
20 And he slaughtered all the priests of the high-places that were there upon the altars, and burnt men's bones upon them, and returned [then] to Jerusalem.
Innis luboota iddoowwan sagadaa kanneen gaarran irraa hunda iddoowwan aarsaa irratti qalee lafee namaas achuma irratti ni gube. Ergasiis gara Yerusaalemitti ni deebiʼe.
21 And the king commanded all the people, saying, Keep the passover unto the Lord your God, as it is written in this book of the covenant.
Mootichis, “Akkuma Kitaaba Kakuu kana keessatti barreeffame sanatti Waaqayyo Waaqa keessaniif Faasiikaa ayyaaneffadhaa” jedhee saba hunda ajaje.
22 For there had not been holden such a passover from the days of the judges that judged Israel; nor in all the days of the kings of Israel, and of the kings of Judah;
Bara abbootii murtii kanneen Israaʼelin bulchaa turaniitii jalqabee yookaan bara mootota Israaʼel hunda keessa yookaan Yihuudaa keessa Faasiikaan akkasii takkumaa ayyaaneffamee hin beeku.
23 But in the eighteenth year of king Josiah was this passover holden to the Lord in Jerusalem.
Garuu bara Yosiyaas mootichaa keessa waggaa kudha saddeettaffaatti Faasiikaan kun Yerusaalemitti Waaqayyoof ayyaaneffamaa ture.
24 And also the men of familiar spirits, and the wizards, and the teraphim, and the idols, and all the abominations that were to be seen in the land of Judah and in Jerusalem, did Josiah clear away; in order that he might accomplish the words of the law which were written in the book that Chilkiyahu the priest had found in the house of the Lord.
Kana malees Yosiyaas ilaaltotaa fi eker dubbistoota, taraafimii, waaqota tolfamoo fi wantoota jibbisiisoo kanneen Yihuudaa fi Yerusaalem keessatti argaman biraa hunda balleesse. Innis seera kitaaba Hilqiyaa lubichi mana qulqullummaa Waaqayyoo keessatti arge sana irratti barreeffame hojii irra oolchuudhaaf waan kana godhe.
25 And like unto him there was no king before him, that returned to the Lord with all his heart, and with all his soul, and with all his might, according to all the law of Moses; and after him there arose none like him.
Mootiin akka Yosiyaas kan akka Seera Musee hundaatti garaa isaa guutuudhaan, lubbuu isaa guutuu fi humna isaa guutuudhaan gara Waaqayyootti deebiʼe tokko iyyuu isaan duras isaan duubas hin argamne.
26 Notwithstanding this the Lord turned not from the fierceness of his great anger, since his anger was kindled against Judah, because of all the provokings wherewith Menasseh had provoked him to anger.
Taʼus sababii Minaaseen waan hojjete hundaan dheekkamsaaf isa kakaaseef Waaqayyo dheekkamsa isaa guddaa fi sodaachisaa Yihuudaa irratti bobaʼe sana irraa hin deebine.
27 And the Lord said, Also Judah will I remove out of my sight, as I have removed Israel, and will cast off this city which I have chosen, even Jerusalem, and the house of which I said, My name shall be there.
Kanaafuu Waaqayyo, “Ani akkuma Israaʼelin balleesse sana Yihuudaas fuula koo duraa nan balleessa; Yerusaalem magaalaa ani filadheef mana qulqullummaa kan ani, ‘Maqaan koo achi jiraata’ jedhee waaʼee isaa dubbadhe kana nan dhiisa” jedhe.
28 Now the rest of the acts of Josiah, and all that he did, behold, they are written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah.
Wanni bara mootummaa Yosiyaas keessa hojjetame kan biraatii fi wanni inni hojjete hundi kitaaba seenaa mootota Yihuudaa keessatti barreeffameera mitii?
29 In his days went up Pharaoh-nechoh the king of Egypt against the king of Assyria to the river Euphrates: and king Josiah went against him; and he slew him at Megiddo, when he saw him.
Bara Yosiyaas mootii turetti, Faraʼoon Nekkoon mootichi Gibxi mootii Asoor gargaaruuf jedhee gara Laga Efraaxiisitti ol baʼe. Yosiyaas mootichis of irraa isa ittisuudhaaf itti gad baʼe. Nekkoon garuu isatti dhufee Megidootti isa ajjeese.
30 And his servants carried him dying in a chariot from Megiddo, and brought him to Jerusalem, and buried him in his own sepulchre. And the people of the land took Jehoachaz the son of Josiah, and anointed him, and made him king in his father's stead.
Garboonni Yosiyaasis gaariidhaan Megidoodhaa gara Yerusaalemitti reeffa isaa fidanii awwaala isaa keessatti isa awwaalan. Ergasiis sabni biyya sanaa Yehooʼaahaaz ilma Yosiyaas fuudhanii dibanii iddoo abbaa isaa buusanii mootii isa godhan.
31 Twenty and three years old was Jehoachaz when he became king; and three months did he reign in Jerusalem. And his mother's name was Chamutal, the daughter of Jeremiah of Libnah.
Yehooʼaahaazis yeroo mootii taʼetti umuriin isaa waggaa digdamii sadii ture; innis Yerusaalem keessa taaʼee jiʼa sadii bulche. Maqaan haadha isaa Hamuutaal ture; isheenis intala Ermiyaas kan Libnaadhaa dhuftee turte.
32 And he did what is evil in the eyes of the Lord, all just as his fathers had done.
Innis akkuma abbootiin isaa hojjetan sana fuula Waaqayyoo duratti waan hamaa hojjete.
33 And Pharaoh-nechoh put him in fetters at Riblah in the land of Chamath, that he should not reign in Jerusalem, and imposed a fine on the land of a hundred talents of silver, and a talent of gold.
Akka inni Yerusaalem keessa taaʼee hin bulchineef Faraʼoon Nekkoon Hamaati keessatti Riiblaati foncaan isa hidhee Yihuudaa irrattis gibira meetii taalaantii dhibba tokkoo fi warqee taalaantii tokko mure.
34 And Pharaoh-nechoh made Elyakim the son of Josiah king in the room of Josiah his father, and changed his name to Jehoyakim, and took Jehoachaz away: and he came to Egypt, and died there.
Faraʼoon Nekkoon Eliiyaaqiim ilma Yosiyaas mootichaa iddoo Yosiyaas iddoo abbaa isaa buusee mootii godhe; maqaa Eliiyaaqiimis geeddaree Yehooyaaqiim jedheen. Yehooʼaahaazin garuu fuudhee Gibxitti geesse; innis achitti duʼe.
35 And Jehoyakim gave the silver and the gold to Pharaoh; but he taxed the land to give the money by the order of Pharaoh: from every one according to his estimation did he exact the silver and gold from the people of the land, to give it unto Pharaoh-nechoh.
Yehooyaaqiimis meetii fi warqee Faraʼoon Nekkoon gaafate sana ni baase. Waan kana baasuufis gibira biyyatti muree namoota biyyattii irraa akkuma galii isaaniitti meetii fi warqee walitti qabe.
36 Twenty and five years old was Jehoyakim when he became king; and eleven years did be reign in Jerusalem. And his mother's name was Zebudah, the daughter of Pedayah of Rumah.
Yehooyaaqiim yeroo mootii taʼetti umuriin isaa waggaa digdamii shan ture; innis Yerusaalem keessa taaʼee waggaa kudha tokko bulche. Maqaan haadha isaa Zebuudaa ture; isheenis intala Phedaayaa kan magaalaa Ruumaatii dhufte turte.
37 And he did what is evil in the eyes of the Lord, all just as his fathers had done.
Innis akkuma abbootiin isaa hojjetan sana fuula Waaqayyoo duratti waan hamaa hojjete.
