2 Samuel 15
1 And after this Absalom began to furnish himself with a chariot and horses, and fifty men to run before him.
Kana irratti Abesaaloom gaarii lolaatii fi fardeen akkasumas namoota fuula isaa dura fiigan shantama ofii isaatiif qopheeffate.
2 And Absalom used to get up early and stand beside the road. Then when anyone had a dispute which should come to the king for judgment, then Absalom would call out to him and say, "What city are you from?" When he said, "Your servant is from one of the tribes of Israel,"
Innis ganamaan kaʼee daandii gara karra magaalaatti nama geessu irra dhaabata ture. Yeroo namni kam iyyuu iyyata isaa mootii duratti dhiʼeeffatee murtii argachuuf dhufutti, Abesaaloom ofitti isa waamee, “Ati magaalaa kamii dhufte?” jedhee gaafata. Namni sunis, “Garbichi kee gosoota Israaʼel keessaa gosa tokko keessaa dhufa” jedhee deebisaaf.
3 then Absalom would say to him, "Look, your matters are good and right; but there is no one from the king to hear you."
Ergasiis Abesaaloom, “Kunoo iyyanni kee dhugaa fi qajeelaa dha; garuu akka inni si dhagaʼuuf namni mootiin iddoo buufate tokko iyyuu hin jiru” jedhaan.
4 And Absalom would say, "Oh that I were made judge in the land, then anyone who had a dispute could come to me, and I would give him justice."
Abesaaloomis itti dabalee, “Maal qaba, utuu ani biyya kanatti abbaa murtii taʼee! Silaa namni iyyata yookaan himata qabu kam iyyuu na bira dhufee anis murtii qajeelaa isaaf nan kennan ture” jedha.
5 It was so, that when any man came near to do him obeisance, he would extend his hand and embrace him, and kiss him.
Akkasumas yeroo namni tokko fuula isaa duratti jilbeenfachuuf gara isaa dhufutti Abesaaloom harka diriirfatee ol isa qabuudhaan isa dhungata.
6 Absalom did this sort of thing to all Israel who came to the king for judgment. So Absalom stole the hearts of the men of Israel.
Abesaaloom akkasiin Israaʼeloota murtii qajeelaa argachuuf gara mootii dhufan hunda simachuudhaan garaa namoota Israaʼel hate.
7 It happened at the end of four years, that Absalom said to the king, "Please let me go and pay my vow, which I have vowed to YHWH, in Hebron.
Abesaaloomis gara dhuma waggaa afuraffaatti mootichaan akkana jedhe; “Akka ani Kebroon dhaqee wareega Waaqayyoof wareegee ture tokko dhiʼeessuuf naaf eeyyami.
8 For your servant vowed a vow while I stayed at Geshur in Aram, saying, 'If YHWH will bring me back to Jerusalem, then I will serve YHWH in Hebron.'"
Ani garbichi kee yeroon biyya Sooriyaa keessa Geshuur jiraachaa turetti, ‘Yoo Waaqayyo gara Yerusaalemitti na deebise, ani Kebroonitti Waaqayyoof nan sagada’ jedhee wareega kana wareegeen ture.”
9 The king said to him, "Go in peace." So he arose, and went to Hebron.
Mootichis, “Nagaan deemi” jedheen. Kanaafuu Abesaaloom gara Kebroon deeme.
10 But Absalom sent spies throughout all the tribes of Israel, saying, "As soon as you hear the sound of the trumpet, then you shall say, 'Absalom is king in Hebron.'"
Abesaaloom garuu akka isaan, “Isin akkuma sagalee malakataa dhageessaniin, ‘Abesaaloom Kebroonitti mootii taʼeera’ jedhaa” jedhaniif guutummaa gosoota Israaʼel keessa dhoksaadhaan ergamoota bobbaase.
11 Two hundred men went with Absalom out of Jerusalem, who were invited, and went in their simplicity; and they did not know anything.
Namoonni dhibbi lama Yerusaalemii baʼanii Abesaaloom faana buʼan. Isaan akka keessummaatti affeeramanii calʼisaniituma deeman malee waaʼee dhimma sanaa waan tokko illee quba hin qaban ture.
12 And he sent and invited Ahithophel the Gilonite, David's counselor, from his city Giloh, where he was offering sacrifice. The conspiracy was strong, for the people increased continually with Absalom.
Abesaaloom yeroo aarsaa dhiʼeessutti namichi gosa Giiloo kan Ahiitofel jedhamu, gorsaan Daawit akka magaalaa isaa Giiloodhaa dhufuuf waamsise. Kanaafuu fincilli sun jabaatee duukaa buutonni Abesaaloomis baayʼachaa dhufan.
13 A messenger came to David, saying, "The hearts of the men of Israel are after Absalom."
Ergamaan tokkos Daawit bira dhufee, “Garaan namoota Israaʼel gara Abesaaloom itti deebiʼee jira” jedhee itti hime.
14 So David said to all his servants who were with him at Jerusalem, "Arise, and let us flee, otherwise none of us shall escape from Absalom. Go immediately, or else he will quickly overtake us and bring down the city on top of us, and strike the city with the edge of the sword."
Ergasiis Daawit qondaaltota isaa warra isa wajjin Yerusaalem keessa turaniin akkana jedhe; “Kaʼaa ni baqannaa! Yoo kanaa achii tokkoon keenya iyyuu Abesaaloom jalaa hin baanu. Dafnee asii deemuu qabna; yoo kanaa achii inni ariitiidhaan dhufee nu qaqqabee nu balleessaatii; magaalattii illee goraadeedhaan dhaʼa.”
15 Then the king's servants said to him, "Look, your servants are ready to do whatever the king chooses."
Qondaaltonni mootichaas, “Nu tajaajiltoonni kee waan gooftaan keenya mootichi murteesse kam iyyuu gochuuf qophaaʼoo dha” isaan jedhan.
16 And the king went out with all his household following him. But the king left ten women, who were secondary wives, to take care of the palace.
Kanaafuu mootichi warra mana isaa jiraatan hunda of faana fudhatee qajeele; saajjatoowwan isaa kudha garuu akka isaan masaraa mootii eeganiif achumatti dhiise.
17 So the king went out with all his servants following him, and they stopped at the last house.
Mootichis akkasiin namoota hunda of faana fudhatee baʼe; isaanis xinnoo achi fagaatanii iddoo tokko dhadhaabatan.
18 And all the people passed on before him. And all those with him, all the officers and warriors, were six hundred men, and they passed on before him. And when all the Cherethites and all the Pelethites and all the Gittites who followed him from Gath passed on before the king.
Namoonni isaa hundinuu Kereetotaa fi Pheletota hunda wajjin mooticha dura qajeelan; akkasumas Gaatonni dhibba jaʼa kanneen Gitii isa faana baʼanis fuula mootichaa dura darban.
19 Then the king said to Ittai the Gittite, "Why do you also go with us? Go back and stay with the king, for you are a foreigner and you also are an exile from your place.
Mootichis Itaayi namicha Gitii sanaan akkana jedhe; “Ati maaliif nu faana dhufta? Deebiʼiitii Abesaaloom mooticha wajjin turi. Ati keessummaa biyya keetii boojiʼamtee dhuftee dha.
20 You came only yesterday. Should I today make you wander about with us, since I go I know not where? Go back, and take your brothers with you, and may YHWH show you kindness and truth."
Ati kaleessuma dhufte. Egaa ani utuun ofii kootiifuu garan dhaqu hin beekin akka ati nu faana joortun si godhaa? Amma beenuu namoota biyya keetii fudhadhuutii deebiʼi. Gara laafinnii fi amanamummaan si wajjin haa taʼan.”
21 Ittai answered the king, and said, "As YHWH lives, and as my lord the king lives, surely in what place my lord shall be, whether for death or for life, even there also will your servant be."
Itaayi garuu deebisee mootichaan, “Dhugaa Waaqayyo jiraataatii fi duʼa gooftaa koo mootichaa, jireenyas taʼu duʼa taanaan ani tajaajilaan kee gara gooftaan koo mootichi deemu kam iyyuu nan deema” jedhe.
22 So David said to Ittai, "Go and pass over." Then Ittai passed over, and all his men, and all the little ones who were with him.
Daawit immoo Itaayiin, “Yoos darbii fuula duratti deemi” jedhe. Kanaafuu Itaayi namichi Gitii sun namoota isaatii fi maatii isaa kanneen isa wajjin turan hunda fudhatee deeme.
23 And all the land wept aloud as all the people crossed over. And the king crossed the Wadi Kidron, and all the people passed before him on the Olive road into the wilderness.
Yeroo namoonni sun hundi darbanittis warri baadiyyaa jiraatan hundi sagalee ol fudhatanii booʼan. Mootichis Sulula Qeedroon ceʼee deeme; namoonni hundinuus ceʼanii gara gammoojjiitti qajeelan.
24 And look, Zadok also came (and all the Levites with him, bearing the ark of the covenant of YHWH) and Abiathar. And they set down the ark of God until all the people finished passing by from the city.
Zaadoqis achi ture; Lewwonni isa wajjin turan hundinuu taabota kakuu Waaqaa baatanii turan; isaanis taabota Waaqaa lafa kaaʼan; Abiyaataar immoo hamma namoonni hundi magaalaa keessaa baʼanitti aarsaa dhiʼeesse.
25 The king said to Zadok, "Return the ark of God to the city. If I find favor in the eyes of YHWH, he will bring me back and show me both it and his dwelling place;
Ergasii mootichi Zaadoqiin akkana jedhe; “Ati taabota Waaqaa fuudhiitii gara magaalaatti deebiʼi. Yoo ani fuula Waaqayyoo duratti surraa argadhee jiraadhe, inni deebisee na fidee taabota sanaa fi lafa ofii jiraatu na argisiisa.
26 but if he should say, 'I have no delight in you;' look, here I am. Let him do to me as seems good to him."
Garuu yoo inni, ‘Ani sitti hin gammanne’ naan jedhe, ani qophaaʼaa dha; inni waan fedhe na haa godhu.”
27 And the king said also to Zadok the priest, "Look, you return into the city in peace, and your two sons with you, Ahimaaz your son, and Jonathan the son of Abiathar.
Mootichis Zaadoq lubichaan, “Ati nama mulʼataan waa argu mitii? Egaa ilma kee Ahiimaʼazin akkasumas Yoonaataan ilma Abiyaataar fudhadhuutii nagaan gara magaalaatti deebiʼi. Atii fi Abiyaataar ilmaan keessan lamaan fudhadhaatii deemaa.
28 Look, I will wait at the fords of the wilderness until word comes from you to inform me."
Ani immoo hamman dhaamsa kee dhagaʼutti malkaa gammoojjii keessaa bira nan tura.”
29 So Zadok and Abiathar carried the ark to Jerusalem and returned it there.
Kanaafuu Zaadoqii fi Abiyaataar taabota Waaqaa sana fuudhanii Yerusaalemitti deebiʼanii achuma turan.
30 And David went up by the Ascent of the Olives, and wept as he went, and he had his head covered and went barefoot. And all the people who were with him covered their heads, and they went up weeping as they went.
Daawit garuu Gaara Ejersaatti ol baʼe; yeroo ol baʼuttis booʼaa deemaa ture; innis mataa isaa haguuggatee kophee malee deema ture. Namoonni isa wajjin turan hundinuus mataa isaanii haguuggatanii booʼaa deemu turan.
31 And it had been told to David, saying, "Ahithophel is among the conspirators with Absalom." David said, "YHWH, please turn the counsel of Ahithophel into foolishness."
Yeroo kanatti, “Ahiitofelis warra Abesaaloom wajjin fincilan keessaa tokkoo dha” jedhamee Daawititti himame. Kanaafuu Daawit, “Yaa Waaqayyo, gorsa Ahiitofel sana jalaa busheessi” jedhee Waaqa kadhate.
32 It happened that when David had come to the top, where God was worshiped, look, Hushai the Archite came to meet him with his coat torn, and earth on his head.
Yeroo Daawit iddoo wal gaʼii iddoo itti namoonni Waaqa waaqeffatan gaʼettis Huushaayi namichi gosa Arkii sun wandaboo ofii tarsaasee daaraa mataatti firfirfatee isa simachuuf baʼe.
33 David said to him, "If you pass on with me, then you will be a burden to me;
Daawitis akkana jedheen, “Ati yoo na wajjin deemte baʼaa natti taata.
34 but if you return to the city, and tell Absalom, 'Your brothers have left, O king, after your father left, and now I am your servant, O king. Allow me to live. As I have been your father's servant in the past, so now I am your servant,' then you will defeat for me the counsel of Ahithophel.
Garuu yoo gara magaalaatti deebitee Abesaaloomiin, ‘Yaa mootii, ani duraan garbicha abbaa keetiin ture; amma garuu garbicha kee nan taʼa’ jettee gorsa Ahiitofel busheessite na gargaaruu dandeessa.
35 And look, Zadok and Abiathar the priests will be there with you. So whatever you hear from the king's house you must tell it to Zadok and Abiathar the priests.
Zaadoqii fi Abiyaataar luboonni suma wajjin achi jiraatu mitii? Ati waan masaraa mootiitii dhageessu hunda isaanitti himi.
36 Look, their two sons are with them there, Ahimaaz, Zadok's son, and Jonathan, Abiathar's son. And by them you must send to me everything that you hear."
Ilmaan isaanii lamaan Ahiimaʼaz ilmi Zaadoqii fi Yoonaataan ilmi Abiyaataar isaanuma wajjin achi jiraatan. Ati waan dhageessu hunda harka isaaniitiin naa ergi.”
37 So Hushai, David's friend, came into the city; and Absalom came into Jerusalem.
Kanaafuu Huushaayi michuun Daawit utuma Abesaaloom Yerusaalem seenaa jiruu achi gaʼe.
