< Isaiah 36 >

1 And it was in four-teen year of the king Hezekiah he went up Sennacherib [the] king of Assyria on all [the] cities of Judah fortified and he seized them.
Bara mootummaa Hisqiyaas mootichaa keessa waggaa kudha afuraffaatti Senaaheriib mootichi Asoor magaalaawwan Yihuudaa kanneen dallaa jabaa qaban hunda lolee ni qabate.
2 And he sent [the] king of Assyria - [the] chief commander from Lachish Jerusalem towards to the king Hezekiah with an army massive and he stood at [the] conduit of the pool upper on [the] highway of [the] field of [the] washer.
Ergasii mootichi Asoor, Raafaasqiis ajajaa waraana isaa loltoota hedduu wajjin Laakkiishii gara Yerusaalem, Hisqiyaas mootichatti erge. Ajajaan sunis jalʼisii Haroo Ol aanu kan karra Lafa Qotiisaa Namicha Wayyaa Miicuutti geessu bira gaʼee dhaabate;
3 And he went out to him Eliakim [the] son of Hilkiah who [was] over the house and Shebna the scribe and Joah [the] son of Asaph the recorder.
Eliiyaaqiim ilmi Hilqiyaa bulchaan masaraa mootummaa, Shebnaa barreessaanii fi Yooʼaa ilmi Asaaf galmeessaan gara isaatti gad baʼan.
4 And he said to them [the] chief commander say please to Hezekiah thus he says the king great [the] king of Assyria what? [is] the trust this which you trust.
Ajajaan waraanaa sunis akkana isaaniin jedhe; “Akkana jedhaa Hisqiyaasitti himaa: “‘Mootiin guddaan, mootichi Asoor akkana jedha: Of amanachuu kee kana maal irratti hundeeffatte?
5 I say only a word of lips [are] a plan and strength for war now on whom? do you rely that you have rebelled against me.
Ati, “Ani tooftaa fi jabina waraanaa qaba” jetta; garuu dubbii faayidaa hin qabne dubbatta. Ati eenyun abdattee natti fincilta?
6 Here! you rely on [the] staff of reed crushed this on Egypt which he will support himself anyone on it and it will go in palm his and it will pierce it [is] thus Pharaoh [the] king of Egypt to all those [who] rely on him.
Kunoo ati Gibxin jechuunis ulee shambaqqoo caccabaa harka nama isatti irkatu kamii iyyuu waraanee madeessu sana abdatteerta! Faraʼoon Mootichi Gibxis nama isa abdatu hundaaf akkasuma.
7 And if you will say to me to Yahweh God our we trust ¿ not [is] he [the one] whom he has removed Hezekiah high places his and altars his and he has said to Judah and to Jerusalem before the altar this you will bow down.
Yoo ati, “Nu Waaqayyo Waaqa keenya abdanna” naan jette, inni isuma Hisqiyaas iddoowwan sagadaa isaatii fi iddoowwan aarsaa isaa diigee Yihuudaa fi Yerusaalemiin, “Isin fuula iddoo aarsaa kanaa duratti waaqeffachuu qabdu” jedhe sana mitii?
8 And now make a wager please with master my the king of Assyria so let me give to you two thousand horses if you will be able to put for yourself riders on them.
“‘Amma kottuutii gooftaa koo mooticha Asoor wajjin dubbadhu; anis yoo ati namoota farda yaabbatan qopheeffachuu dandeesse fardeen kuma lama siifin kenna!
9 And how? will you turn back [the] face of [the] governor one of [the] servants of master my little and you have been relying yourself on Egypt for chariotry and for horsemen.
Yoos ati yoo gaariiwwanii fi abbootii fardaatiif jettee Gibxin abdatte iyyuu, akkamiin qondaaltota gooftaa kootii keessaa ajajaa gad aanaa isaa illee of irraa deebisuu dandeessa?
10 And now ¿ without Yahweh have I come up on the land this to destroy it Yahweh he said to me go up to the land this and destroy it.
Ati waan ani dubbii Waaqayyoo malee biyya kana lolee barbadeessuuf dhufe seetaa? Waaqayyo mataan isaa akka ani biyya kanatti duulee ishee barbadeessu natti dubbateera.’”
11 And he said Eliakim and Shebna and Joah to [the] chief commander speak please to servants your Aramaic for [are] understanding we and may not you speak to us [in] Judean in [the] ears of the people which [is] on the city wall.
Kana irratti Eliiyaaqiim, Shebnaa fi Yooʼaa ajajaa waraanaa sanaan, “Maaloo waan nu dhageenyuuf afaan warra Araamaayikiitiin garboota keetti dubbadhu. Utuma namoonni dallaa irra jiran dhagaʼanii afaan Ibrootaatiin nutti hin dubbatin” jedhan.
12 And he said [the] chief commander ¿ to master your and to you has he sent me master my to speak the words these ¿ not to the people who sit on the city wall to eat (own excrement their *Q(K)*) and to drink ([the] water of feet their *Q(K)*) with you.
Ajajaan waraanaa sun garuu akkana jedhee deebise; “Namni gooftaan koo akka ani waan kana itti himuuf itti na erge gooftaa keessanii fi isin qofaa? Namoota dallaa irra tataaʼan warra akkuma keessan udaan ofii isaanii nyaatanii fincaan ofii isaanii dhuguu qabaniifis mitii?”
13 And he stood [the] chief commander and he called out with a voice great [in] Judean and he said hear [the] words of the king great [the] king of Assyria.
Ergasii ajajaan waraanaa sun ol kaʼee afaan Ibrootaatiin akkana jedhe; “Dubbii mooticha guddaa, dubbii mootii Asoor dhagaʼaa!
14 Thus he says the king may not he deceive you Hezekiah for not he will be able to deliver you.
Mootichi akkana jedha: Hisqiyaas isin hin gowwoomsin. Inni isin baasuu hin dandaʼu!
15 And may not he make trust you Hezekiah to Yahweh saying certainly he will deliver us Yahweh not it will be given the city this in [the] hand of [the] king of Assyria.
Hisqiyaas, ‘Waaqayyo dhugumaan nu baasa; magaalaan kunis dabarfamtee harka mooticha Asooritti hin kennamtu’ jechuudhaan akka isin Waaqayyoon amanattaniif isin hin sossobin.
16 May not you listen to Hezekiah. For thus he says the king of Assyria make with me a blessing and come out to me and eat everyone own vine his and everyone own fig tree his and drink everyone [the] water of own cistern his.
“Hisqiyaasin hin dhaggeeffatinaa. Mootiin Asoor akkana jedha: Ana wajjin nagaa buusaatii gara koo kottaa. Ergasii tokkoon tokkoon keessan muka wayiniitii fi muka harbuu keessan irraa ni nyaattu; boolla bishaan keessanii keessaas ni dhugdu;
17 Until come I and I will take you to a land like own land your a land of grain and new wine a land of bread and vineyards.
kunis hamma ani dhufee gara biyya akkuma biyya keessanii jirtuu, gara biyya midhaanii fi daadhii wayinii haaraatti, biyya buddeenaa fi iddoo dhaabaa wayiniitti isin geessutti taʼa.
18 Lest he should mislead you Hezekiah saying Yahweh he will deliver us ¿ have they delivered [the] gods of the nations anyone land its from [the] hand of [the] king of Assyria.
“Hisqiyaas, ‘Waaqayyo nu baraara’ jedhee isin hin dogoggorsin; Waaqni saboota kamii iyyuu takkumaa harka mooticha Asoor keessaa biyya ofii baafatee beekaa?
19 Where? [were] [the] gods of Hamath and Arpad where? [were] [the] gods of Sepharvaim and if they have delivered Samaria from hand my.
Waaqonni Hamaatii fi waaqonni Arfaad eessa jiru? Waaqonni Seefarwaayim eessa jiru? Isaan harka koo keessaa Samaariyaa baasaniiruu?
20 Who? among all [the] gods of the lands these [are those] which they have delivered land their from hand my that he will deliver Yahweh Jerusalem from hand my.
Waaqota biyyoota kanneenii hunda keessaa kamtu biyyoota isaanii harka koo keessaa baasuu dandaʼe? Yoos Waaqayyo akkamiin harka koo keessaa Yerusaalemin baasuu dandaʼa ree?”
21 And they kept silent and not they answered him anything for [was] [the] commandment of the king it saying not you must answer him.
Namoonni garuu sababii mootichi, “Deebii hin kenninaafii” jedhee ajajeef inuma calʼisan malee deebii tokko iyyuu hin kennine.
22 And he went Eliakim [the] son of Hilkiah who [was] over the house and Shebna the scribe and Joah [the] son of Asaph the recorder to Hezekiah torn of garments and they told to him [the] words of [the] chief commander.
Kana irratti Eliiyaaqiim ilmi Hilqiyaa bulchaan masaraa mootummaa, Shebnaa barreessaanii fi Yooʼaa ilmi Asaaf galmeessaan, uffata isaanii tatarsaasanii gara Hisqiyaas dhaqanii waan ajajaan waraanaa sun jedhe itti ni himan.
