2 Samuel 15
1 And it came to pass after this, that Absalom prepared him 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 rose up early, and stood beside the way of the gate: and it was so, that when any man had a suit which should come to the king for judgment, then Absalom called unto him, and said, Of what city art thou? And he said, Thy servant is of 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 And Absalom said unto him, See, thy matters are good and right; but there is no man deputed of the king to hear thee.
Ergasiis Abesaaloom, “Kunoo iyyanni kee dhugaa fi qajeelaa dha; garuu akka inni si dhagaʼuuf namni mootiin iddoo buufate tokko iyyuu hin jiru” jedhaan.
4 Absalom said moreover, Oh that I were made judge in the land, that every man which hath any suit or cause might come unto me, and I would do 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 And it was so, that when any man came nigh to do him obeisance, he put forth his hand, and took hold of him, and kissed him.
Akkasumas yeroo namni tokko fuula isaa duratti jilbeenfachuuf gara isaa dhufutti Abesaaloom harka diriirfatee ol isa qabuudhaan isa dhungata.
6 And on this manner did Absalom to all Israel that 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 And it came to pass at the end of forty years, that Absalom said unto the king, I pray thee, let me go and pay my vow, which I have vowed unto the LORD, in Hebron.
Abesaaloomis gara dhuma waggaa afuraffaatti mootichaan akkana jedhe; “Akka ani Kebroon dhaqee wareega Waaqayyoof wareegee ture tokko dhiʼeessuuf naaf eeyyami.
8 For thy servant vowed a vow while I abode at Geshur in Syria, saying, If the LORD shall indeed bring me again to Jerusalem, then I will serve the LORD.
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 And the king said unto 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 ye hear the sound of the trumpet, then ye 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 And with Absalom went two hundred men out of Jerusalem, that were invited, and went in their simplicity; and they knew not any thing.
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 Absalom sent for Ahithophel the Gilonite, David’s counsellor, from his city, even from Giloh, while he offered the sacrifices. And 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 And there came a messenger 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 And David said unto all his servants that were with him at Jerusalem, Arise, and let us flee; for else none of us shall escape from Absalom: make speed to depart, lest he overtake us quickly, and bring down evil upon us, and smite 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 And the king’s servants said unto the king, Behold thy servants are ready to do whatsoever my lord the king shall choose.
Qondaaltonni mootichaas, “Nu tajaajiltoonni kee waan gooftaan keenya mootichi murteesse kam iyyuu gochuuf qophaaʼoo dha” isaan jedhan.
16 And the king went forth, and all his household after him, And the king left ten women, which were concubines, to keep the house.
Kanaafuu mootichi warra mana isaa jiraatan hunda of faana fudhatee qajeele; saajjatoowwan isaa kudha garuu akka isaan masaraa mootii eeganiif achumatti dhiise.
17 And the king went forth, and all the people after him; and they tarried in Beth-merhak.
Mootichis akkasiin namoota hunda of faana fudhatee baʼe; isaanis xinnoo achi fagaatanii iddoo tokko dhadhaabatan.
18 And all his servants passed on beside him; and all the Cherethites, and all the Pelethites, and all the Gittites, six hundred men which came after 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 said the king to Ittai the Gittite, Wherefore goest thou also with us? return, and abide with the king: for thou art a stranger, and also an exile; [return] to thine own 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 Whereas thou camest but yesterday, should I this day make thee go up and down with us, seeing I go whither I may? return thou, and take back thy brethren; mercy and truth be with thee.
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 And Ittai answered the king, and said, As the LORD liveth, and as my lord the king liveth, surely in what place my lord the king shall be, whether for death or for life, even there also will thy 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 And David said to Ittai, Go and pass over. And Ittai the Gittite passed over and all his men, and all the little ones that 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 country wept with a loud voice, and all the people passed over: the king also himself passed over the brook Kidron, and all the people passed over, toward the way of 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, lo, Zadok also [came], and all the Levites with him, bearing the ark of the covenant of God; and they set down the ark of God, and Abiathar went up, until all the people had done passing out of 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 And the king said unto Zadok, Carry back the ark of God into the city: if I shall find favour in the eyes of the LORD, he will bring me again, and shew me both it, and his habitation:
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 say thus, I have no delight in thee; behold, here am I, let him do to me as seemeth good unto him.
Garuu yoo inni, ‘Ani sitti hin gammanne’ naan jedhe, ani qophaaʼaa dha; inni waan fedhe na haa godhu.”
27 The king said also unto Zadok the priest, Art thou [not] a seer? return into the city in peace, and your two sons with you, Ahimaaz thy 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 See, I will tarry at the fords of the wilderness, until there come word from you to certify me.
Ani immoo hamman dhaamsa kee dhagaʼutti malkaa gammoojjii keessaa bira nan tura.”
29 Zadok therefore and Abiathar carried the ark of God again to Jerusalem: and they abode there.
Kanaafuu Zaadoqii fi Abiyaataar taabota Waaqaa sana fuudhanii Yerusaalemitti deebiʼanii achuma turan.
30 And David went up by the ascent of the [mount of] Olives, and wept as he went up; and he had his head covered, and went barefoot: and all the people that were with him covered every man his head, and they went up, weeping as they went up.
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 one told David, saying, Ahithophel is among the conspirators with Absalom. And David said, O LORD, I pray thee, 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 And it came to pass, that when David was come to the top [of the ascent], where God was worshipped, behold, Hushai the Archite came to meet him with his coat rent, and earth upon 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 And David said unto him, If thou passest on with me, then thou shalt be a burden unto me:
Daawitis akkana jedheen, “Ati yoo na wajjin deemte baʼaa natti taata.
34 but if thou return to the city, and say unto Absalom, I will be thy servant, O king; as I have been thy father’s servant in time past, so will I now be thy servant: then shalt thou 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 hast thou not there with thee Zadok and Abiathar the priests? therefore it shall be, that what thing soever thou shalt hear out of the king’s house, thou shalt 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 Behold, they have there with them their two sons, Ahimaaz Zadok’s son, and Jonathan Abiathar’s son; and by them ye shall send unto me every thing that ye shall 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.
