2 Samuel 17
1 And Ahithophel said unto Absalom, 'Let me choose, I pray thee, twelve thousand men, and I arise and pursue after David to-night,
Ahiitofelis Abesaaloomiin akkana jedhe; “Ani namoota kuma kudha lama filadhee halkanuma kana Daawitin nan ariʼa.
2 and come upon him, and he weary and feeble-handed, and I have caused him to tremble, and all the people have fled who [are] with him, and I have smitten the king by himself,
Anis yeroo inni dadhabee laafutti isa nan dhaʼa. Sodaa itti buusee akka namoonni isa wajjin jiran hundis baqatan nan godha. Ani mooticha qofa dhaʼee
3 and I bring back all the people unto thee — as the turning back of the whole [is] the man whom thou art seeking — all the people are peace.
namoota isaa hundas deebisee sittin fida. Duuti namicha ati barbaaddu sanaa deebiʼuu nama hundaa ti jechuu dha; ergasii namoonni hundinuu nagaan jiraatu.”
4 And the thing is right in the eyes of Absalom, and in the eyes of all the elders of Israel.
Karoorri kunis Abesaaloomii fi maanguddoota Israaʼel hundatti waan gaarii fakkaate.
5 And Absalom saith, 'Call, I pray thee, also for Hushai the Archite, and we hear what [is] in his mouth — even he.'
Abesaaloom garuu, “Mee Huushaayi namicha gosa Arkii sanas waamaatii waan inni jedhu haa dhageenyu” jedhe.
6 And Hushai cometh in unto Absalom, and Absalom speaketh unto him, saying, 'According to this word hath Ahithophel spoken; do we do his word? if not, thou — speak thou.'
Abesaaloom yeroo Huushaayi isa bira dhufetti, “Ahiitofel gorsa kana nuu kenneera. Waan inni jedhe kana haa goonuu? Yoo taʼuu baate immoo yaada kee nuu kenni” jedheen.
7 And Hushai saith unto Absalom, 'Not good [is] the counsel that Ahithophel hath counselled at this time.'
Huushaayis deebisee Abesaaloomiin akkana jedhe; “Gorsi Ahiitofel kenne yeroo kanatti gaarii miti.
8 And Hushai saith, 'Thou hast known thy father and his men, that they [are] heroes, and they are bitter in soul as a bereaved bear in a field, and thy father [is] a man of war, and doth not lodge with the people;
Ati abbaa keetii fi namoota isaa ni beekta; isaan loltootaa fi warra akkuma amaaketa ilmaan ishee jalaa fudhatamteetti nama sodaachisanii dha. Kana irratti abbaan kee muuxannoo waraanaa guddaa qaba; inni halkan halkan loltoota bira hin bulu.
9 lo, now, he is hidden in one of the pits, or in one of the places, and it hath been, at the falling among them at the commencement, that the hearer hath heard, and said, There hath been a slaughter among the people who [are] after Absalom;
Amma illee inni holqa keessa yookaan lafa biraa dhokatee jira taʼa. Yoo inni duraan dursee loltoota kee dhaʼe, namni waaʼee kanaa dhagaʼu kam iyyuu, ‘Loltoonni Abesaaloom duuka buʼan ni dhuman’ jedhee odeessa.
10 and he also, the son of valour, whose heart [is] as the heart of the lion, doth utterly melt, for all Israel doth know that thy father is a hero, and sons of valour [are] those with him.
Ergasii immoo sababii Israaʼeloonni hundinuu akka abbaan kee nama waraanaa taʼee fi akka warri isa wajjin jiranis jajjaboo taʼan beekaniif loltoonni ciccimoon warri onneen isaanii akka onnee leencaa taʼe sodaadhaan dhuman.
11 'So that I have counselled: Let all Israel be diligently gathered unto thee, from Dan even unto Beer-Sheba, as the sand that [is] by the sea for multitude, and thou thyself art going in the midst;
“Egaa wanni ani si gorsu kana: Israaʼeloonni lakkoobsi isaanii akka cirracha qarqara galaanaa baayʼatu kanneen Daanii hamma Bersheebaatti argaman hundi si biratti walitti haa qabamaniitii ati isaan dura buʼii lolatti seeni.
12 and we have come in unto him in one of the places where he is found, and we [are] upon him as the dew falleth on the ground, and there hath not been left of him and of all the men who [are] with him even one.
Akkasiin lafa inni jirutti isa dhoofna; akkuma Fixeensi ganamaa lafa irra buʼuttis isa irra buuna. Innis taʼu namoonni isaa tokko iyyuu lubbuun hin hafan.
13 And if unto a city he is gathered, then they have caused all Israel to bear unto that city ropes, and we have drawn it unto the brook till that there hath not been found there even a stone.'
Yoo inni gara magaalaa sanaatti baqates, Israaʼeloonni hundinuu funyoo fidanii hamma dhagaan xinnaan tokko hin hafnetti magaalaa sana gara sululaatti harkifna.”
14 And Absalom saith — and all the men of Israel — 'Better [is] the counsel of Hushai the Archite than the counsel of Ahithophel;' and Jehovah willed to make void the good counsel of Ahithophel for the sake of Jehovah's bringing unto Absalom the evil.
Abesaaloomii fi Israaʼeloonni hundinuu, “Gorsa Ahiitofel caalaa gorsa Huushaayi namicha gosa Arkii sanaatu wayya” jedhan. Waaqayyo Abesaaloomitti badiisa fiduuf jedhee gorsa Ahiitofel gaarii sana faayidaa dhabsiiseeraatii.
15 And Hushai saith unto Zadok and unto Abiathar the priests, 'Thus and thus hath Ahithophel counselled Absalom and the elders of Israel, and thus and thus I have counselled;
Huushaayiis akkana jedhee Zaadoqii fi Abiyaataar lubootatti hime; “Ahiitofel, ‘Akkasii fi akkas godhaa’ jedhee Abesaaloomii fi maanguddoota Israaʼel gorsee ture; ani garuu, ‘Akkanaa fi akkana godhaa’ jedheen isaan gorse.
16 and now, send hastily, and declare to David, saying, Lodge not to-night in the plains of the wilderness, and also, certainly pass over, lest there be a swallowing up of the king and of all the people who are with him.'
Amma gara Daawititti ergamoota ergaatii, ‘Ati halkan kana holqawwan gammoojjii keessa hin bulin; utuu hin turin ceʼii deemi; yoo kanaa achii mootichii fi namoonni isa wajjin jiran hundinuu ni liqimfamtu’ jedhaa itti himaa.”
17 And Jonathan and Ahimaaz are standing at En-Rogel, and the maid-servant hath gone and declared to them — and they go and have declared [it] to king David — for they are not able to be seen to go in to the city.
Yeroo sanattis Yoonaataanii fi Ahiimaʼaz iddoo Een Roogeel jedhamu turan. Intalli xomboreen tokko dhaqxee isaanitti himti turte; isaan immoo dhaqanii Daawit mootichatti himu turan; isaan akka yeroo magaalaa seenanitti hin argamneef of eeggachaa turaniitii.
18 And a youth seeth them, and declareth to Absalom; and they go on both of them hastily, and come in unto the house of a man in Bahurim, and he hath a well in his court, and they go down there,
Garuu dargaggeessi tokko isaan argee Abesaaloom itti hime. Kanaafuu lamaan isaanii iyyuu dafanii achii baʼanii mana namicha Bahuuriim keessa jiraatu tokkoo seenan. Namichi kunis dallaa isaa keessaa boolla qaba ture; isaanis boolla sana keessa lixan.
19 and the woman taketh and spreadeth the covering over the face of the well, and spreadeth on it the ground corn, and the thing hath not been known.
Niitiin namicha sanaas afaan boollichaa gubbaa waa diriirsitee midhaan achi irra afte. Namni tokko iyyuu waan kana hin beekne.
20 And the servants of Absalom come in unto the woman to the house, and say, 'Where [are] Ahimaaz and Jonathan?' and the woman saith to them, 'They passed over the brook of water;' and they seek, and have not found, and turn back to Jerusalem.
Namoonni Abesaaloom yommuu dubartittii bira mana dhufanitti, “Ahiimaʼazii fi Yoonaataan meerre?” jedhanii gaafatan. Dubartittiinis, “Isaan laga ceʼanii deemaniiru” jettee isaaniif deebifte. Jarris barbaadanii isaan dhaban; kanaafuu Yerusaalemitti deebiʼan.
21 And it cometh to pass, after their going on, that they come up out of the well, and go and declare to king David, and say unto David, 'Rise ye, and pass over hastily the waters, for thus hath Ahithophel counselled against you.'
Erga namoonni Abesaaloom deemanii booddee Ahiimaʼazii fi Yoonaataan boolla keessaa ol baʼanii Daawit mootichatti himuu dhaqan. Isaanis, “Ammuma kana kaʼiitii laga ceʼi; Ahiitofel, ‘Akkasii fi akkas godhaa’ jedhee sirratti isaan gorseeraa” jedhaniin.
22 And David riseth, and all the people who [are] with him, and they pass over the Jordan, till the light of the morning, till one hath not been lacking who hath not passed over the Jordan.
Kanaafuu Daawitii fi namoonni isaa hundi kaʼanii Yordaanosin ceʼan. Yeroo lafti bariitetti namni utuu Yordaanosin hin ceʼin hafe tokko iyyuu hin turre.
23 And Ahithophel hath seen that his counsel was not done, and he saddleth the ass, and riseth and goeth unto his house, unto his city, and giveth charge unto his household, and strangleth himself, and dieth, and he is buried in the burying-place of his father.
Ahiitofelis yommuu akka gorsi isaa fudhatama dhabe beeketti harree isaa feʼatee gara magaalaa iddoo mana jireenya isaatti qajeele. Innis erga mana isaa tottolfatee booddee of fannise. Akkasiinis duʼee awwaala abbaa isaa keessatti awwaalame.
24 And David came to Mahanaim, and Absalom passed over the Jordan, he and all the men of Israel with him;
Daawit gara Mahanayiim deeme; Abesaaloom immoo namoota Israaʼel hunda wajjin Yordaanosin ceʼe.
25 and Amasa hath Absalom set instead of Joab over the host, and Amasa [is] a man's son whose name is Ithra the Israelite who hath gone in unto Abigail, daughter of Nahash, sister of Zeruiah, mother of Joab;
Abesaaloomis Amaasaa qooda Yooʼaab ajajaa loltootaa godhee muude; Amaasaan kun ilma namicha gosa Israaʼel kan Yitraa jedhamu isa Abiigayiil haadha Yooʼaab, obboleettii Zeruuyaa, intala Naaʼaash sana fuudhee ture.
26 and Israel encampeth with Absalom [in] the land of Gilead.
Israaʼeloonnii fi Abesaaloom biyya Giliʼaad keessa qubatan.
27 And it cometh to pass at the coming in of David to Mahanaim, that Shobi, son of Nahash, from Rabbah of the Bene-Ammon, and Machir son of Ammiel, from Lo-Debar, and Barzillai the Gileadite, from Rogelim,
Yommuu Daawit Mahanayiim gaʼettis, Shoobiin ilmi Naahaash namichi gosa Amoon kan Rabbaadhaa dhufe, Maakiir ilmi Amiiʼeel kan Lodebaarii dhufee fi Barzilaayiin namichi gosa Giliʼaad kan Rogeliimii dhufe
28 couch, and basin, and earthen vessel, and wheat, and barley, and flour, and roasted [corn], and beans, and lentiles, and roasted [pulse],
afata, waciitii fi miʼoota suphee irraa hojjetaman fidan. Akkasumas akka isaan nyaataniif qamadii fi garbuu, daakuu fi akaayii, baaqelaa fi misira,
29 and honey, and butter, and sheep, and cheese of kine, have brought nigh for David, and for the people who [are] with him to eat, for they said, 'Thy people [is] hungry, and weary, and thirsty, in the wilderness.'
dammaa fi itittuu, hoolotaa fi baaduu aannan loon Daawitii fi namoota isaatiif fidan. Isaanis, “Namoonni lafa gammoojjiitti beelaʼaniiru, dadhabaniiru, dheebotaniirus” jedhanii turaniitii.
