< Deuteronomy 2 >

1 Then we turned and took our journey into the wilderness by the way to the Sea of Reeds, as Yahweh had spoken to me; we went around Mount Seir for many days.
Ergasii akkuma Waaqayyo natti himetti, duubatti deebinee karaa Galaana Diimaatiin gara gammoojjiitti qajeelle; yeroo dheeraadhaafis naannoo biyya gaaraa Seeʼiir keessa joorre.
2 Yahweh spoke to me, saying,
Waaqayyos akkana naan jedhe;
3 'You have gone around this mountain long enough; turn northward.
“Biyya gaaraa kana naannaʼuun isin gaʼa; gara kaabaatti garagalaa.
4 Command the people, saying, “You are to pass through the border of your brothers, the descendants of Esau, who live in Seir; they will be afraid of you. Therefore be careful
Saba kana akkana jedhii ajaji: ‘Isin biyya obboloota keessan sanyiiwwan Esaawu kanneen Seeʼiir keessa jiraatanii keessa darbitu. Isaan isin sodaatu; isin garuu jabeessaa of eeggadhaa.
5 not to fight with them, for I will not give you any of their land, no, not even enough for the sole of a foot to step on; for I have given Mount Seir to Esau as a possession.
Lolaaf isaan hin kakaasinaa; ani lafa isaanii irraa iddoo isin miilla keessan irra dhaabbattan illee isiniif hin kennuutii. Ani biyya gaaraa Seeʼiir dhaala godhee Esaawuuf kenneera.
6 You will purchase food from them for money, so that you may eat; you will also buy water from them for money, so that you may drink.
Nyaata achii nyaattanii fi bishaan dhugdaniif maallaqa baaftuuf.’”
7 For Yahweh your God has blessed you in all the work of your hand; he has known your walking through this great wilderness. For these forty years Yahweh your God has been with you, and you have lacked nothing.”'
Waaqayyo Waaqni keessan waan isin hojjettan hundaan isin eebbiseera. Inni deemsa dheeraa isin gammoojjii balʼaa kana keessa deemtan irratti isin eegeera. Waaqayyo Waaqni keessan waggoota afurtamman kanneen isin wajjin ture; isinis waan tokko illee hin dhabne.
8 So we passed by our brothers, the descendants of Esau who live in Seir, away from the Arabah road, from Elath and from Ezion Geber. Then we turned and passed by the way of the wilderness of Moab.
Obboloota keenya ilmaan Esaawu warra Seeʼiir keessa jiraatan bira dabarree deemne. Nus daandii Arabbaa kan Eelaatii fi Eziyoon Geberii dhufu irraa garagallee karaa daandii gammoojjii Moʼaab deemne.
9 Yahweh said to me, 'Do not trouble Moab, and do not fight with them in battle. For I will not give you his land for your own possession, because I have given Ar to the descendants of Lot, for their possession.'
Ergasiis Waaqayyo akkana naan jedhe; “Waan ani lafa Moʼaab irraa isiniif hin kennineef akkasumaan isaan hin rakkisinaa; waraanaafis isaan hin kakaasinaa. Ani Aarin dhaala godhee sanyii Looxiif kenneeraatii.”
10 (The Emites lived there previously, a people as great, as many, and as tall as the Anakim;
Eemiimoonni achi jiraachaa turan; isaanis namoota jajjaboo fi baayʼee dha; akkuma Anaaqotaas dhedheeroo turan.
11 these also are considered to be the Rephaim, like the Anakim; but the Moabites call them the Emim.
Isaan kunneenis akkuma Anaaqotaa, Refaayimoota jedhamanii hedamu turan; Moʼaabonni garuu Eemiimoota jedhuun.
12 The Horites also lived in Seir previously, but the descendants of Esau succeeded them. They destroyed them from before them and lived in their place, like Israel did to the land of his possession that Yahweh gave to them.)
Huuronni kunneen Seeʼiir keessa jiraachaa turan; ilmaan Esaawu garuu ariʼanii achii isaan baasan. Isaanis akkuma Israaʼeloonni biyya Waaqayyo dhaala isaaniif kenne sana keessatti godhan sana Hoorota achii balleessanii ofii isaaniitii biyya jaraa keessa qubatan.
13 “'Now rise up and go over the brook Zered.' So we went over the brook Zered.
Waaqayyo, “Ammuma kaʼaatii Laga Zered ceʼaa” nuun jedhe. Nu laga sana ceene.
14 Now the days from when we came from Kadesh Barnea until we crossed the brook Zered, were thirty-eight years. It was by that time that all that generation of the men fit for fighting were gone from the people, as Yahweh had sworn to them.
Yeroo nu Qaadesh Barnee kaanee jalqabee hamma laga Zered ceenutti waggaa soddomii saddeet fudhate. Akkuma Waaqayyo isaanitti kakatetti dhaloonni dhiira waraanaa hundi yeroo sanatti qubata keessaa dhume.
15 Moreover, the hand of Yahweh was against that generation in order to destroy them from the people until they were gone.
Harki Waaqayyoos qubata keessaa isaan balleessuudhaaf isaan irra ture.
16 So it happened, when all the men fit for fighting were dead and gone from among the people,
Yeroo loltoonni hundi saba keessaa dhumanitti,
17 that Yahweh spoke to me, saying,
Waaqayyo akkana naan jedhe;
18 'You are today to pass over Ar, the border of Moab.
“Ati harʼa daarii Moʼaab, Aari keessa dabarta.
19 When you come near opposite the people of Ammon, do not trouble them or fight them; for I will not give you any of the land of the people of Ammon as a possession; because I have given it to the descendants of Lot as a possession.'”
Yommuu Amoonotatti dhuftanitti akkasumaan isaan hin rakkisinaa yookaan waraanaaf isaan hin kakaasinaa; ani biyya isaanii keessaa tokko illee dhaala godhee isiniif hin kennuutii. Ani biyya isaanii sanyii Looxiif handhuuraa godhee kenneera.”
20 (That also is considered to be a land of the Rephaim. The Rephaim lived there previously—but the Ammonites call them Zamzummim—
Kunis biyya Refaayimoota achi jiraachaa turaniiti jedhamee hedama; Amoononni garuu Zamzumoota jedhanii isaan waamu ture.
21 a people as great, as many, and as tall as the Anakim. But Yahweh destroyed them before the Ammonites, and they succeeded them and lived in their place.
Isaanis namoota jajjaboo fi baayʼee dha; akkuma Anaaqotaa dhedheeroo turan. Waaqayyos fuula Amoonota achii isaan baasanii iddoo isaanii qubatan sanaa duraa isaan barbadeesse.
22 This Yahweh also did for the people of Esau, who live in Seir, when he destroyed the Horites from before them, and the descendants of Esau succeeded them and have lived in their place even until today.
Waaqayyos yommuu Hoorota fuula isaanii duraa balleessetti ilmaan Esaawu kanneen Seeʼiir keessa jiraachaa turanis akkasuma godhe. Isaanis jara achii baasanii hamma harʼaatti biyya isaanii keessa jiraatan.
23 As for the Avvites who lived in villages as far as Gaza, the Caphtorim, who came from Caphtor, destroyed them and settled in their place.)
Awoota gandoota hamma Gaazaatti jiran keessa jiraatan immoo Kaftooronni Kaftoorii baʼanii dhufan sun balleessanii iddoo isaanii qubatan.
24 “'Now rise up, go on your journey, and pass over the Valley of the Arnon; look, I have given into your hand Sihon the Amorite, king of Heshbon, and his land. Begin to possess it, and fight with him in battle.
“Kaʼaatii Laga Arnoon ceʼaa; ani kunoo, Sihoon Amooricha mootii Heshbooniitii fi biyya isaa illee dabarsee harka keessanitti isinii kenneeraatii. Waraana itti banaatii biyya sana qabachuu jalqabaa.
25 Today I will begin to put the fear and terror of you on the peoples that are under the whole sky; they will hear news about you and will tremble and be in anguish because of you.'
Anis naasisuu fi sodaachisuu keessan saboota samii gad jiran hundatti buusuu hardhuma nan jalqaba. Isaanis oduu waaʼee keessanii dhagaʼanii sababii keessaniif hollatu; naasuunis isaan qabata.”
26 I sent messengers from the wilderness of Kedemoth to Sihon, king of Heshbon, with words of peace, saying,
Anis akkana jedhee gammoojjii Qidemooti keessaa Sihoon mooticha Heshbooniitti ergamoota nagaa nan erge;
27 'Let me pass through your land; I will go along the highway; I will turn neither to the right hand nor to the left.
“Akka nu biyya kee keessaan darbinu nuu eeyyami. Nu karaa guddicha irraa hin gorru; mirgattis gara bitaattis hin gorru.
28 You will sell me food for money, so that I may eat; give me water for money, so that I may drink; only let me pass through on my feet;
Waan nyaannuu fi bishaan dhugnu maallaqaan nutti gurguri. Akka miilla qofaan achi keessa dabarru nuuf eeyyami;
29 as the descendants of Esau who live in Seir, and as the Moabites who live in Ar, did for me; until I pass over the Jordan into the land that Yahweh our God is giving us.'
akkuma ilmaan Esaawu kanneen Seeʼiir keessa jiraatanii fi Moʼaabonni Aari keessa jiraatan nuuf godhan sana atis hamma nu gara biyya Waaqayyo Waaqni keenya nuu kennuutti galuuf laga Yordaanos ceenutti akkasuma nuuf godhi.”
30 But Sihon, king of Heshbon, would not let us pass by him; for Yahweh your God had hardened his mind and made his heart obstinate, that he might defeat him by your might, which he has now done today.
Sihoon mootiin Heshboon garuu akka nu dabarru nuuf eeyyamuu dide. Waaqayyo Waaqni keessan akkuma amma godhe kana dabarsee harka keessanitti isa kennuuf mataa fi garaa isaa jabeessee tureetii.
31 Yahweh said to me, 'Look, I have begun to deliver up Sihon and his land before you; begin to possess it, in order that you may inherit his land.'
Waaqayyos, “Kunoo, ani Sihoonii fi biyya isaa dabarsee siif kennuu jalqabeera. Ati biyya isaa dhaaluuf qabachuu jalqabi” naan jedhe.
32 Then Sihon came out against us, he and all his people, to fight at Jahaz.
Yommuu Sihoonii fi guutummaan loltoota isaa nu waraanuuf Yaahazitti baʼanitti,
33 Yahweh our God gave him over to us and we defeated him and his sons and all his people.
Waaqayyo Waaqni keenya dabarsee harka keenyatti isa nuuf kenne; nus isa, ilmaan isaatii fi loltoota isaa hunda dhoofne.
34 We took all his cities at that time and completely destroyed every city—men and the women and the little ones; we left no survivor.
Yeroo sanattis magaalaawwan isaa hunda qabannee dhiirota, dubartootaa fi ijoollee, tokkoo tokkoo magaalaawwanii guutumaan guutuutti barbadeessine. Nama tokko illee hin hambifne.
35 Only the cattle we took as spoils for ourselves, along with the spoil of the cities that we had taken.
Garuu horii fi boojuu magaalaawwan qabanne sana keessaa boojine ofii keenyaaf fudhanne.
36 From Aroer, which is on the edge of the Valley of the Arnon, and from the city that is in the valley, all the way to Gilead, there was not a city too high for us. Yahweh our God gave them into our hands.
Magaalaa Aroʼeer kan qarqara Sulula Arnoonitti argamuu fi magaalaa sululicha keessatti argamuu jalqabee magaalaa hamma Giliʼaaditti argamu keessaa tokko iyyuu nu ittisuu hin dandeenye. Waaqayyo Waaqni keenya hunda isaanii dabarsee nuuf kenne.
37 It was only to the land of the descendants of Ammon that you did not go, as well as all the side of the Jabbok River, and the cities of the hill country—wherever Yahweh our God had forbidden us to go.
Garuu akkuma ajaja Waaqayyo Waaqni keenya nuuf kenne sanaatti isin gara biyyoota Amoonotaa tokkootti illee yookaan gara biyya qarqara laga Yaaboq irratti argamuu yookaan biyyoota naannoo magaalaawwan gaarran irratti argamaniitti hin dabarre.
