2 Samuel 16
1 When David had gone a short distance over the summit of the hill, Ziba the servant of Mephibosheth met him with a couple of saddled donkeys; on them were two hundred loaves of bread, one hundred clusters of raisins, and one hundred bunches of figs, and a skin of wine.
Daawit fiixee gaarichaa darbee xinnoo erga deemee booddee Ziibaan tajaajilaan Mefiibooshet harroota lamatti buddeena dhibba lama, bixxillee ija wayinii dhibba tokko, bixxillee ija harbuu dhibba tokkoo fi daadhii wayinii qalqalloo tokko feʼee isa simachuuf itti dhufe.
2 The king said to Ziba, “Why did you bring these things?” Ziba replied, “The donkeys are for the king's household to ride on, the bread and fig cakes are for your men to eat, and the wine is for anyone who is faint in the wilderness to drink.”
Mootichis, “Kana hunda maaliif fidde?” jedhee Siibaa gaafate. Ziibaan immoo, “Harroota akka maatiin mootichaa Yaabbataniif, buddeenaa fi bixxillee ija wayinii akka namoonni nyaataniif, daadhii wayinii immoo akka warri gammoojjii keessatti dadhaban ittiin bayyanataniif” jedhee deebise.
3 The king said, “Then where is your master's grandson?” Ziba replied to the king, “Look, he has stayed behind in Jerusalem, for he said, 'Today the house of Israel will restore my father's kingdom to me.'”
Mootichis, “Ilmi ilma gooftaa keetii eessa jira?” jedhee gaafate. Ziibaan immoo deebisee, “Inni waan, ‘Manni Israaʼel harʼa mootummaa akaakayyuu kootii naa deebisa’ jedhee yaaduuf Yerusaalem keessa jiraata” jedhe.
4 Then the king said to Ziba, “Look, all that belonged to Mephibosheth now belongs to you.” Ziba answered, “I bow in humility to you, my master, king. Let me find favor in your eyes.”
Mootichis Ziibaadhaan, “Wanni kan Mefiibooshet taʼe hundinuu amma kan kee ti” jedhe. Ziibaanis, “Ani akkan fuula gooftaa kootii, fuula mootichaa duratti surraa argadhuuf ofi qabeen si kadhadha” jedhe.
5 When King David approached Bahurim, there came out from there a man from the clan of Saul, whose name was Shimei son of Gera. He came out cursing as he walked.
Akkuma Daawit mootichi Bahuuriim gaʼeen namichi balbala maatii Saaʼol tokko itti dhufe. Maqaan isaas Shimeʼii ilma Geeraa ti; namichi kunis Daawitin abaaraa gad baʼe.
6 He threw stones at David and at all of the king's officials, in spite of the army and bodyguards who were on the king's right and left.
Innis utuma qondaaltonnii fi waardiyyoonni Daawit hundinuu mirgaa fi bitaan Daawitin marsanii jiranuu hunda isaaniitti dhagaa darbachaa ture.
7 Shimei called out in cursing, “Go away, get out of here, you villain, you man of blood!
Shimeʼiinis akkana jedhee isa abaaraa ture; “Asii baʼi; asii baʼi; ati nama dhiigaa ti; namicha hamaa nana!
8 Yahweh has repaid all of you for the blood you shed within the family of Saul, in whose place you have reigned. Yahweh has given the kingdom into the hand of Absalom your son. You have come to ruin because you are a man of blood.”
Waaqayyo dhiiga mana Saaʼol kan ati iddoo isaa buutee moote sanaa hundaaf gatii kee siif kenneera. Waaqayyo mootummaa kee sirraa fuudhee ilma kee Abesaaloomiif kenneera. Ati sababii nama dhiigaa taateef ni badda!”
9 Then Abishai son of Zeruiah, said to the king, “Why should this dead dog curse my master the king? Please let me go over and take off his head.”
Abiishaayi ilmi Zeruuyaa mootichaan, “Sareen duʼaan kun maaliif gooftaa koo mooticha abaara? Ani dhaqeen mataa isaa irraa kuta” jedhe.
10 But the king said, “What have I to do with you, sons of Zeruiah? Perhaps he is cursing me because Yahweh has said to him, 'Curse David.' Who then could say to him, 'Why are you cursing the king?'”
Mootichi garuu akkana jedhe; “Yaa ilmaan Zeruuyaa, anii fi isin maal wal irraa qabna? Yoo inni sababii Waaqayyo, ‘Ati Daawitin abaari’ isaan jedheef na abaare eenyutu, ‘Ati maaliif waan kana goota?’ jedhee isa gaafachuu dandaʼa?”
11 So David said to Abishai and to all his servants, “Look, my son, who was born from my body, wants to take my life. How much more may this Benjamite now desire my ruin? Leave him alone and let him curse, for Yahweh has commanded him to do it.
Ergasii Daawit Abiishaayii fi qondaaltota isaa hundaan akkana jedhe; “Ilmi koo kan gudeeda kootii baʼe iyyuu lubbuu koo balleessuu barbaada. Yoos namichi gosa Beniyaam kun hammam kana caalaa hin goone ree! Isa dhiisaa; waan Waaqayyo isa ajajeef inni na haa abaaru.
12 Perhaps Yahweh will look at the misery unleashed on me, and repay me with good for his cursing me today.”
Tarii Waaqayyo dhiphina koo argee abaarsa ani harʼa abaaramaa jiru kana waan gaariitti naa geeddara taʼaa.”
13 So David and his men traveled on the road, while Shimei went beside him up on the hillside, cursing and throwing dust and stones at him as he went.
Kanaafuu Daawitii fi namoonni isaa karaa isaanii itti fufan; Shimeʼiin immoo isa abaaraa, dhagaa itti darbachaa, awwaaras itti bittinneessaa fuullee isaatiin gaara cina deemaa ture.
14 Then the king and all the people who were with him became weary, and he rested when they stopped for the night.
Mootichii fi namoonni isa wajjin turan hundi dadhabbii guddaadhaan dhufanii achitti aara galfatan.
15 As for Absalom and all the men of Israel who were with him, they came to Jerusalem, and Ahithophel was with him.
Yeroo kanattis Abesaaloomii fi namoonni Israaʼel hundi gara Yerusaalem dhufan; Ahiitofelis isa wajjin ture.
16 It came about when Hushai the Arkite, David's friend, had come to Absalom, that Hushai said to Absalom, “Long live the king! Long live the king!”
Huushaayi namichi gosa Arkii michuun Daawit sun Abesaaloom bira dhaqee, “Yaa mootii bara baraan jiraadhu! Yaa mootii bara baraan jiraadhu!” jedheen.
17 Absalom said to Hushai, “Is this your loyalty to your friend? Why did you not go with him?”
Abesaaloomis, “Jaalalli ati michuu keetiif qabdu kanaa? Ati maaliif michuu kee wajjin hin deemne?” jedhee Huushaayin gaafate.
18 Hushai said to Absalom, “No! Instead, the one whom Yahweh and this people and all the men of Israel have chosen, that is the man to whom I will belong, and I will stay with him.
Huushaayi immoo Abesaaloomiin akkana jedhe; “Lakki; ani kan nama Waaqayyo, sabni kunii fi namoonni Israaʼel hundi filatanii nan taʼa; isa wajjinis nan jiraadha.
19 Also, what man should I serve? Should I not serve in the presence of his son? As I have served in your father's presence, I will serve in your presence.”
Kanaa achi ani eenyun tajaajila? Ani Ilma tajaajiluu hin qabuu? Ani akkuman abbaa kee tajaajile sana siʼi illee nan tajaajila.”
20 Then Absalom said to Ahithophel, “Give us your advice about what we should do.”
Abesaaloomis Ahiitofeliin, “Mee nu gorsi. Nu maal gochuu qabna?” jedhe.
21 Ahithophel answered Absalom, “Go sleep with your father's slave wives whom he has left to keep the palace, and all Israel will hear that you have become a stench to your father. Then the hands of all who are with you will be strong.”
Ahiitofelis deebisee, “Ol seeniitii saajjatoowwan abbaa keetii kanneen inni akka isaan masaraa mootii eeganiif dhiisee biraa deeme wajjin ciisi. Ergasii Israaʼeloonni hundi akka ati abbaa kee jibbite dhagaʼanii, harki warra si wajjin jiran hundaas ni jabaataa” jedheen.
22 So they spread for Absalom a tent on the top of the palace, and Absalom slept with his father's slave wives in the sight of all Israel.
Kanaafuu bantii manaa irra Abesaaloomiif dunkaana dhaaban; innis Israaʼeloota hunda duratti saajjatoowwan abbaa isaa wajjin ciise.
23 Now the advice of Ahithophel that he gave in those days was as if a man heard from the mouth of God himself. That was how all of Ahithophel's advice was viewed by both David and Absalom.
Bara sanatti gorsi Ahiitofel kennaa ture akkuma waan namni tokko Waaqa gaafatuutti ilaalama ture. Akki itti Daawitis taʼu Abesaaloom gorsa Ahiitofel hunda dhagaʼaa turan kanaa dha.
