2 Samuel 16
1 When David was a little past the top, behold, Ziba the servant of Mephibosheth met him with a couple of donkeys saddled, and on them two hundred loaves of bread, and one hundred clusters of raisins, and one hundred summer fruits, and a container 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, “What do you mean by these?” Ziba said, “The donkeys are for the king’s household to ride on; and the bread and summer fruit for the young men to eat; and the wine, that those who are faint in the wilderness may 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, “Where is your master’s son?” Ziba said to the king, “Behold, he is staying in Jerusalem; for he said, ‘Today the house of Israel will restore me the kingdom of my father.’”
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, “Behold, all that belongs to Mephibosheth is yours.” Ziba said, “I bow down. Let me find favor in your sight, my lord, O king.”
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 came to Bahurim, behold, a man of the family of Saul’s house came out, whose name was Shimei, the son of Gera. He came out and cursed as he came.
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 cast stones at David and at all the servants of King David, and all the people and all the mighty men were on his right hand and on his left.
Innis utuma qondaaltonnii fi waardiyyoonni Daawit hundinuu mirgaa fi bitaan Daawitin marsanii jiranuu hunda isaaniitti dhagaa darbachaa ture.
7 Shimei said when he cursed, “Be gone, be gone, you man of blood, and wicked fellow!
Shimeʼiinis akkana jedhee isa abaaraa ture; “Asii baʼi; asii baʼi; ati nama dhiigaa ti; namicha hamaa nana!
8 Yahweh has returned on you all the blood of Saul’s house, in whose place you have reigned! Yahweh has delivered the kingdom into the hand of Absalom your son! Behold, you are caught by your own mischief, 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 the son of Zeruiah said to the king, “Why should this dead dog curse my lord 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 The king said, “What have I to do with you, you sons of Zeruiah? Because he curses, and because Yahweh has said to him, ‘Curse David,’ who then shall say, ‘Why have you done so?’”
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 David said to Abishai and to all his servants, “Behold, my son, who came out of my bowels, seeks my life. How much more this Benjamite, now? Leave him alone, and let him curse; for Yahweh has invited him.
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 It may be that Yahweh will look on the wrong done to me, and that Yahweh will repay me good for the cursing of me today.”
Tarii Waaqayyo dhiphina koo argee abaarsa ani harʼa abaaramaa jiru kana waan gaariitti naa geeddara taʼaa.”
13 So David and his men went by the way; and Shimei went along on the hillside opposite him and cursed as he went, threw stones at him, and threw dust.
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 The king and all the people who were with him arrived weary; and he refreshed himself there.
Mootichii fi namoonni isa wajjin turan hundi dadhabbii guddaadhaan dhufanii achitti aara galfatan.
15 Absalom and all the people, the men of Israel, came to Jerusalem, and Ahithophel with him.
Yeroo kanattis Abesaaloomii fi namoonni Israaʼel hundi gara Yerusaalem dhufan; Ahiitofelis isa wajjin ture.
16 When Hushai the Archite, David’s friend, had come to Absalom, 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 kindness to your friend? Why didn’t you go with your friend?”
Abesaaloomis, “Jaalalli ati michuu keetiif qabdu kanaa? Ati maaliif michuu kee wajjin hin deemne?” jedhee Huushaayin gaafate.
18 Hushai said to Absalom, “No; but whomever Yahweh and this people and all the men of Israel have chosen, I will be his, 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 Again, whom should I serve? Shouldn’t I serve in the presence of his son? As I have served in your father’s presence, so I will be 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 your counsel what we shall do.”
Abesaaloomis Ahiitofeliin, “Mee nu gorsi. Nu maal gochuu qabna?” jedhe.
21 Ahithophel said to Absalom, “Go in to your father’s concubines that he has left to keep the house. Then all Israel will hear that you are abhorred by 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 a tent for Absalom on the top of the house, and Absalom went in to his father’s concubines in the sight of all Israel.
Kanaafuu bantii manaa irra Abesaaloomiif dunkaana dhaaban; innis Israaʼeloota hunda duratti saajjatoowwan abbaa isaa wajjin ciise.
23 The counsel of Ahithophel, which he gave in those days, was as if a man inquired at the inner sanctuary of God. All the counsel of Ahithophel was like this both with David and with 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.
