< 2 Samuel 2 >
1 And it came to pass after this, that David asked counsel of the Lord, saying, Shall I go up into one of the cities of Judah? And the Lord said unto him, Go up. And David said, Whither shall I go up? And he said, Unto Hebron.
Kana booddee Daawit, “Magaalaawwan Yihuudaa keessaa gara isa tokkootti ol baʼuu?” jedhee Waaqayyoon gaafate. Waaqayyos, “Baʼi” jedheen. Daawit immoo, “Gara isa kamiittin ol baʼa?” jedhee gaafate. Waaqayyos, “Gara Kebroonitti” jedhee deebiseef.
2 So David went up thither, and his two wives also, Achino'am the Yizre'elitess, and Abigayil, Nabal's wife, the Carmelite.
Kanaafuu Daawit niitota isaa lamaan jechuunis Ahiinooʼam Yizriʼeelittii sanaa fi Abiigayiil kan Naabaal namichi Qarmeloos sun irraa duʼe wajjin ol baʼe.
3 And his men that were with him did David bring up, every man with his household; and they dwelt in the cities of Hebron.
Daawit namoota isa wajjin turan tokkoo tokkoo isaanii maatii isaanii wajjin fudhate; isaanis magaalaawwan Kebroon keessa qubatan.
4 And then came the men of Judah, and they anointed there David as king over the house of Judah. And they told David, saying, The men of Yabesh-gil'ad were those that buried Saul.
Ergasiis namoonni Yihuudaa gara Kebroon dhufanii mana Yihuudaa irratti Daawitin mootii godhanii diban. Yeroo akka namoonni Yaabeesh Giliʼaad Saaʼolin awwaalan Daawititti himametti,
5 And David thereupon sent messengers unto the men of Yabesh-gil'ad, and said unto them, Blessed be ye of the Lord, that ye have done this kindness unto your Lord, unto Saul, and have buried him.
inni akkana jedhee gara namoota Yaabeesh Giliʼaaditti ergamoota erge; “Sababii isin isa awwaaluudhaan Saaʼol gooftaa keessaniif arjummaa akkasii gootaniif Waaqayyo isin haa eebbisu.
6 And now may the Lord deal with you in kindness and truth: and as for me also, I will requite you this good deed, because ye have done this thing.
Ammas Waaqayyo jaalala isaa kan hin geeddaramnee fi amanamummaa isaa isiniif haa kennu; ani waan isin akkas gootaniif akkasuma waan gaarii isiniif nan godha.
7 And now let your hands be strengthened, and be ye valiant men; for your lord Saul is dead; and also me have the house of Judah anointed as king over them.
Egaa amma jabaadhaa; cimaa; Saaʼol gooftaan keessan duʼeeraatii; namoonni Yihuudaa immoo mootii godhatanii of irratti na dibaniiru.”
8 But Abner, the son of Ner, the captain of the army of Saul, took Ish-bosheth the son of Saul, and brought him over to Machanayim;
Yeroo sanatti Abneer ilmi Neer ajajaan waraanaa Saaʼol Iish-Booshet ilma Saaʼol fuudhee gara Mahanayiimitti dabarse.
9 And made him king over Gil'ad, and over the Ashurites, and over Yizre'el, and over Ephraim, and over Benjamin, and over all Israel.
Innis Giliʼaad, Ashuur, Yizriʼeel, Efreemii fi Beniyaam, akkasumas guutummaa Israaʼel irratti isa moosise.
10 Forty years old was Ish-bosheth the son of Saul, when he became king over Israel, and two years he reigned. But the house of Judah followed David.
Iish-Booshet ilmi Saaʼol yeroo Israaʼel irratti mootii taʼetti umuriin isaa waggaa afurtama ture; innis waggaa lama moʼe. Taʼus manni Yihuudaa Daawit duukaa buʼe.
11 And the number of days that David was king in Hebron over the house of Judah was seven years and six months.
Daawitis Kebroonitti mana Yihuudaa irratti waggaa torbaa fi jiʼa jaʼa mootii taʼe.
12 And there went out Abner the son of Ner, and the servants of Ish-bosheth the son of Saul, from Machanayim to Gib'on.
Abneer ilmi Neer namoota Iish-Booshet ilma Saaʼol sana wajjin Mahanayiimii kaʼanii gara Gibeʼoon dhaqan.
13 And Joab the son of Zeruyah and the servants of David also went out, and they met together by the pool of Gib'on: and they sat down, these on the one side of the pool, and the others on the other side of the pool.
Yooʼaab ilmi Zeruuyaa fi namoonni Daawit isaan simachuuf baʼanii haroo Gibeʼoon biratti itti dhufan. Gareen tokko gama tokkoon, gareen kaan immoo gama kaaniin haroo sana bira tataaʼan.
14 And Abner said to Joab, Do let the young men rise up and play before us. And Joab said, They may rise up.
Abneeris Yooʼaabiin, “Mee dargaggoonni kaʼanii fuula keenya duratti wal haa tuman” jedhe. Yooʼaabis, “Haa taʼu; wal haa tuman” jedhe.
15 Then they rose up and went over by number: twelve for Benjamin, and for Ish-bosheth the son of Saul, and twelve of the servants of David.
Kanaafuu Beniyaam irraa namoonni kudha lama Iish-Booshet ilma Saaʼoliif, namoonni kudha lama immoo kaʼanii Daawitiif lakkaaʼaman.
16 And they grasped every one his fellow by the head, and thrust his sword in his fellow's side; and they fell down together: wherefore that place was called Chelkath-hazzurim, which is by Gib'on.
Tokkoon tokkoon namaas mormituu isaa mataa qabee cinaacha isaatti goraadee diree wal qabatanii kukkufan. Kanaafuu iddoon sun Gibeʼoon keessatti lafa goraadee jedhamee waamame.
17 And the battle was exceedingly fierce on that day; and Abner with the men of Israel was beaten, before the servants of David.
Lolli gaafa sanaa akka malee jabaa ture; Abneerii fi namoonni Israaʼelis namoota Daawitiin moʼataman.
18 And there were at that place three sons of Zeruyah, Joab, and Abishai, and 'Asahel: and 'Asahel was as fleet of foot as any roe in the field.
Ilmaan Zeruuyaa sadan jechuunis Yooʼaab, Abiishaayii fi Asaaheel achi turan. Asaaheel akkuma kuruphee bosonaa fiigichatti nama jabaa ture.
19 And 'Asahel pursued after Abner; and he turned not in going to the right hand or to the left from following Abner.
Innis utuu mirgatti yookaan bitaatti hin gorin faana buʼee Abneerin ariʼe.
20 And Abner turned round and said, Art thou 'Asahel? And he answered, I am.
Abneeris of irra garagalee, “Ati Asaaheelii?” jedhee gaafate. Innis, “Eeyyee anuma” jedhee deebise.
21 And Abner said to him, Turn thee aside to thy right hand or to thy left, and lay hold for thyself on one of the young men, and take thyself his armor. But 'Asahel would not turn aside from following him.
Ergasiis Abneer, “Gara mirgaatti yookaan bitaatti garagaliitii dargaggeessa tokko qabii miʼa lolaa isaa irraa fudhadhu” jedheen. Asaaheel garuu isa ariʼuu hin dhiifne.
22 And Abner repeated again to say unto 'Asahel, Turn thee aside from following me: wherefore should I smite thee to the ground? and how should I then lift up my face to Joab thy brother?
Abneer ammas Asaaheelin, “Na hin ariʼin! Ani maaliifan si galaafadha? Ani akkamittin fuula koo ol fudhadhee obboleessa kee Yooʼaabin ilaala?” jedhe.
23 But he refused to turn aside; and Abner smote him with the hinder end of the spear under the fifth rib, so that the spear came out behind him; and he fell down there, and died on the spot: and it came to pass, that all who came to the place where 'Asahel had fallen down and died remained standing still.
Asaaheel garuu isa ariʼuu hin dhiifne; kanaafuu Abneer qara eeboo isaatiin garaa isaa waraane; eeboon sunis keessa fullaʼee dugda isaatiin baʼe. Asaaheelis achitti kufee yommuu suma duʼe. Namni hundis iddoo Asaaheel itti kufee duʼe sana gaʼee dhaabata ture.
24 But Joab and Abishai pursued after Abner: and the sun went down when they were come to the hill of Ammah, that lieth before Giach on the way to the wilderness of Gib'on.
Yooʼaabii fi Abiishaayi garuu Abneerin ariʼan; isaanis yeroo aduun dhiʼetti gaara Amaa kan karaa gammoojjii Gibeʼoonitti geessu irra Giiyaatti garagalee argamu sana gaʼan.
25 And the children of Benjamin assembled themselves together behind Abner, and formed one solid body, and posted themselves on the top of a certain hill.
Namoonni Beniyaamis Abneer biratti walitti qabaman. Isaanis gareedhaan walgurmeessanii gaara Amaa gubbaatti hiriiran.
26 And Abner called to Joab, and said, Shall for everlasting the sword devour? knowest thou not that it will be bitter in the end? and how long shall it be, ere thou wilt bid the people to return from pursuing their brethren?
Abneeris iyyee Yooʼaabin waamee, “Goraadeen kun bara baraan waa galaafachuu qabaa? Akka dhumni waan kanaa hadhaaʼaa taʼe ati wallaalteetii? Ati hamma yoomiitti akka namoonni kee obboloota isaanii ariʼuu dhiisan itti hin himtu?” jedhe.
27 And Joab said, As God liveth, unless thou hadst spoken, surely then already in the morning would the people have gone away every one from pursuing his brother.
Yooʼaab immoo deebisee, “Dhugaa Waaqa jiraataa, utuu ati waan kana jechuu baattee silaa namoonni hamma lafti bariʼutti obboloota isaanii ariʼuu irraa hin deebiʼan ture” jedhe.
28 So Joab blew the cornet, and all the people remained standing still, and pursued no more after Israel, and they continued no more to fight.
Kanaafuu Yooʼaab malakata afuufe; namoonni hundis Israaʼeloota ariʼuu dhiisan; lammatas waraanni isaan gidduutti hin kaane.
29 And Abner and his men walked through the plain all that night, and they passed over the Jordan, and went through all Bithron, and they came to Machanayim.
Abneerii fi namoonni isaa halkan sana guutuu Arabbaa keessa yaaʼanii darban. Isaanis Laga Yordaanos ceʼanii guutummaa Biitroon keessa darbanii gara Mahanayiim dhufan.
30 And Joab returned from pursuing Abner; and he gathered all the people together; and there were missed of David's servants nineteen men and 'Asahel.
Ergasiis Yooʼaab Abneerin ariʼuu dhiisee namoota isaa hunda walitti qabe. Yeroo sanattis akka namoota Daawit keessaa Asaaheelin malee namoonni kudha sagal badan beekame.
31 But the servants of David had smitten [many] of Benjamin, and of Abner's men: three hundred and sixty men died.
Namoonni Daawit garuu namoota Beniyaam keessaa warra Abneer wajjin turan dhibba sadii fi jaatama ajjeesan.
32 And they took up 'Asahel, and buried him in the sepulchre of his father, which was in Beth-lechem. And Joab and his men went all that night, and the day broke on them at Hebron.
Isaanis reeffa Asaaheel fudhatanii Beetlihemitti iddoo awwaala abbaa isaatti awwaalan. Yooʼaabii fi namoonni isaa halkan guutuu deemaa bulanii barii obboroo Kebroon gaʼan.
