2 Kings 7
1 Then said Elisha', Hear ye the word of the Lord: Thus hath said the Lord, About this time tomorrow a seah of fine flour shall be sold for a shekel, and two seahs of barley for a shekel, in the gate of Samaria.
Elsaaʼi, “Dubbii Waaqayyoo dhagaʼaa. Waaqayyo akkana jedha: Bor yoona karra Samaariyaa duratti daakuun safartuun tokko saqilii tokkotti, garbuun safartuun lama immoo saqilii tokkotti gurgurama” jedhe.
2 Then answered the lord of the king, on whose hand he used to lean, the man of God, and said, Behold, will the Lord make windows in the heavens, that this thing shall be? And he said, Behold, thou shalt see it with thy eyes, but thereof shalt thou not eat.
Ajajaan loltootaa kan mootichi irree isaatti irkate sun nama Waaqaa sanaan, “Utuma Waaqayyo karra burqaa Samiiwwanii banee iyyuu wanni kun taʼuu dandaʼaa?” jedhe. Elsaaʼi immoo, “Ati ijuma keetiin argita; garuu tokkoo isaa illee hin nyaattu!” jedhe.
3 And there were four leprous men at the entrance of the gate: and they said one to another, Why do we remain here until we die?
Yeroo kanatti namoota lamxii qaban afurtu balbala ittiin magaalattii seenan dura ture. Isaanis akkana waliin jedhan; “Nu maaliif hamma duunutti as teenya?
4 If we say, We will enter into the city, then is the famine in the city, and we shall die there; and if we remain here, we die [also]: now therefore come, and let us go over unto the camp of the Syrians; if they will let us live, we shall live; and if they kill us, we shall but die.
Yoo nu, ‘Kottaa magaalaa seennaa’ jenne, beelli achi jira; nus ni duuna. Yoo as turre ni duuna. Kanaafuu kottaa gara qubata warra Sooriyaa dhaqnaa. Yoo isaan nu maaran ni jiraanna; yoo isaan nu fixan immoo ni dhumna.”
5 And they rose up in the twilight, to go unto the camp of the Syrians; and when they were come to the uttermost part of the camp of the Syrians, behold, there was no man there.
Isaan galgala dimimmisaan kaʼanii gara qubata warra Sooriyaa ni dhaqan. Yommuu isaan qubata sana bira gaʼanitti namni tokko iyyuu achi hin turre;
6 For the Lord had caused the camp of the Syrians to hear a noise of chariots, and a noise of horses, the noise of a large army: and they said one to the other, Lo, the king of Israel hath hired against us the kings of the Hittites, and the kings of the Egyptians, to come upon us.
Kunis sababii Gooftaan akka warri Sooriyaa didichuu gaariiwwanii, fardeeniitii fi kan waraana guddaa dhagaʼanii, “Kunoo, mootiin Israaʼel nu dhaʼuuf jedhee mootii Heetotaatii fi mootii warra Gibxi nutti bitateera!” waliin jedhan godheef.
7 And they were arisen and fled in the twilight, and had left their tents, and their horses, and their asses, the camp as it was, and fled for their life.
Kanaafuu isaan dunkaana isaanii, fardeenii fi harroota isaanii dhiisanii dimimmisaan baqatan. Qubata isaaniis akkuma jirutti dhiisanii lubbuu isaanii oolfachuudhaaf ni baqatan.
8 And so came these lepers to the uttermost part of the camp, and they went into one tent, and ate and drank, and carried away thence silver, and gold, and garments, and went and hid them; and they returned, and entered into another tent, and carried away [something] thence, and went and hid it.
Namoonni lamxii qaban sun daarii qubata sanaa bira gaʼanii dunkaana tokko seenan. Isaanis waa nyaatanii dhuganii meetii, warqee fi wayyaa guurratanii dhaqanii dhokfatan. Amma illee deebiʼanii dunkaana biraa seenanii waa keessaa guurratanii akkasuma dhokfatan.
9 And then they said one to the other, We do not act correctly; this day is a day of good tidings; and if we remain silent, and tarry till the morning-light, we shall incur guilt: now then come, and let us go and tell it at the king's house.
Kana irratti isaan akkana waliin jedhan; “Nu waan qajeelaa hojjechuutti hin jirru; guyyaan kun guyyaa oduu gaarii ti; nu garuu inuma calʼifne. Yoo nu hamma bariʼutti calʼifne adabbiitu nu eeggata. Kanaafuu kottaa dafnee dhaqnee oduu kana mana mootummaatti himnaa.”
10 So they went and called unto one of the gate-keepers of the city, and they told them, saying, We came to the camp of the Syrians, and, behold, there was no man there, nor the voice of man; but the horses were tied, and the asses were tied, and the tents as they had been.
Isaanis dhaqanii namoota karra magaalaa eegan waamanii, “Nu gara qubata warra Sooriyaa ni dhaqne; namni tokko illee achi hin turre; sagaleen nama tokkoo iyyuu hin dhagaʼamne. Fardeenii fi harroota hidhamanii fi dunkaana akkuma dhaabametti dhiifame qofatu ture” jedhan.
11 And he called the gate-keepers; and they told it at the king's house within.
Warri karra eegan sunis oduu kana ni labsan; oduun sunis masaraa mootummaa keessatti ni dhagaʼame.
12 And the king arose in the night, and said unto his servants, I can easily tell you what the Syrians have done to us: they know that we are hungry; and they are therefore gone out of the camp to hide themselves in the field, saying, If they should come out of the city, we will catch them alive, and enter into the city.
Mootichis halkaniin kaʼee ajajjoota loltoota isaatiin akkana jedhe; “Ani waan warri Sooriyaa nutti hojjetan isinittin hima; isaan akka nu beelaan miidhamaa jirru beeku; kanaafuu isaan, ‘Dhugumaan isaan gad ni baʼu; ergasiis nu utuma lubbuun jiranuu isaan qabnee magaalattii seenna’ jedhanii yaaduudhaan baadiyyaa keessa dhokachuudhaaf qubata dhiisanii baʼan.”
13 And one of his servants answered and said, Let some take, I pray thee, five of the horses that remain, which are left in the city, let it fare with them as with all the multitude of Israel that are left in it, [or] let it fare with them as with all the multitude of Israel that have perished: and let us send out and see.
Ajajjoota loltoota isaa keessaa tokko akkana jedhee deebise; “Namoonni tokko tokko fardeen magaalaa keessatti hafan keessaa shan fudhatanii haa deeman. Rakkinni isaanii akkuma Israaʼeloota asitti hafan hundaa ti; dhugumaan isaan akkuma Israaʼeloota dhuman sana hundaa ni taʼu. Kanaafuu kottaa waan taʼe beekuudhaaf isaan erginaa.”
14 And they took two chariots with horses; and the king sent after the camp of the Syrians, saying, Go and see.
Kanaafuu isaan gaariiwwan lama fardeen isaanii wajjin ni filan; mootichis, “Dhaqaatii ilaalaa” jedhee loltoota Sooriyaa duubaan isaan erge.
15 And they went after them as far as the Jordan; and, lo, the whole way was full of garments and vessels, which the Syrians had cast away in their haste: and the messengers returned, and told it to the king.
Isaanis hamma Yordaanositti isaan duukaa buʼan; kunoo karaan hundi uffataa fi miʼa warri Sooriyaa yeroo ariitiidhaan baqatanitti daddarbataniin guutamee ture. Ergamoonni sunis deebiʼanii mootichatti himan.
16 And the people went out, and plundered the camp of the Syrians: and a seah of fine flour was to be had for a shekel, and two seahs of barley for a shekel, according to the word of the Lord.
Ergasiis namoonni gad yaaʼanii qubata warra Sooriyaa ni saaman. Kanaafuu akkuma Waaqayyo dubbate sana daakuun safartuun tokko saqilii tokkotti, garbuun safartuun lama immoo saqilii tokkotti gurgurame.
17 And the king had appointed the lord on whose hand he used to lean to have the charge of the gate; and the people trod him down in the gate, and he died; as the man of God had spoken, which he spoke when the king came down to him.
Mootichis yeroo kanatti ajajaa loltootaa kan irree isaatti irkatee ture sana itti gaafatamaa karraa godhee muude; namoonnis karra duratti isa irra yaaʼan; innis akkuma namni Waaqaa yeroo mootichi mana isaa dhufetti dubbate sana ni duʼe.
18 And it came to pass as the man of God was speaking to the king, saying, Two seahs of barley for a shekel, and a seah of fine flour for a shekel, shall be about this time tomorrow in the gate of Samaria:
Kunis akkuma namni Waaqaa sun, “Bori yoona karra Samaariyaa duratti daakuun safartuun tokko saqilii tokkotti, garbuun safartuun lama immoo saqilii tokkotti ni gurgurama” jedhee mootichatti hime sana taʼe.
19 That the Lord had answered the man of God, and said, Now, behold, if even the Lord were to make windows in the heavens, would such a thing be? And he had said, Behold, thou shalt see it with thy eyes, but thereof shalt thou not eat.
Ajajaan loltootaa sunis nama Waaqaa sanaan “Utuma Waaqayyo karra burqaa samiiwwanii bane illee wanni kun taʼuu dandaʼaa?” jedhe. Namni Waaqaa sun immoo, “Ati ijuma keetiin argita; garuu tokkicha isaa illee hin nyaattu!” jedhe.
20 And it happened unto him so; for the people trod him down in the gate, and he died.
Wanni isa irra gaʼes dhugumaan kanaa dha; inni waan namoonni karra duratti isa irra yaaʼaniif duʼeetii.
