1 Awo oluvannyuma lwa Abimereki, ne wabaawo Toola mutabani wa Puwa, era muzzukulu wa Dodo, omusajja wa Isakaali eyajja okulokola Isirayiri, eyabeeranga mu Samiri mu nsi ya Efulayimu ey’ensozi.
Erga Abiimelek duʼee booddee namichi gosa Yisaakor, Toolaan ilmi Phuwaa ilmi Doodoo Israaʼel baraaruuf kaʼe. Innis biyya gaaraa Efreem keessa Shaamiir jiraate.
2 N’akulembera Isirayiri okumala emyaka amakumi abiri mu esatu, n’aziikibwa mu Samiri.
Tolaan waggaa digdamii sadii Israaʼelin bulche; ergasiis duʼee Shaamiiritti awwaalame.
3 Oluvannyuma lw’oyo ne wabaawo Yayiri Omugireyaadi, eyakulembera Isirayiri okumala emyaka amakumi abiri mu ebiri.
Isatti aanee Yaaʼiir namichi gosa Giliʼaad kaʼee waggaa kudha lama Israaʼelin bulche;
4 Yalina abaana aboobulenzi amakumi asatu abeebagalanga endogoyi amakumi asatu, era baafuganga ebibuga amakumi asatu, mu nsi ya Gireyaadi ebiyitibwa Kavosu Yayiri n’okutuusa leero.
innis ilmaan soddoma kanneen harroota soddoma yaabbatan qaba ture. Isaanis magaalaawwan hamma harʼaatti gandoota Yaaʼiir jedhaman soddoma Giliʼaad keessaa qabu turan.
5 Yayiri n’afa n’aziikibwa mu Kamoni.
Yaaʼiiris duʼee Qaamonitti awwaalame.
6 Abayisirayiri ne beeyongera okukola ebibi mu maaso ga Mukama, nga baweereza Babaali ne Asutoleesi ne bakatonda ab’e Busuuli, ne bakatonda ab’e Sidoni, ne bakatonda ab’e Mowaabu, ne bakatonda ab’abaana ba Amoni, ne bakatonda b’Abafirisuuti, ne bava ku Mukama ne batamuweereza.
Ammas Israaʼeloonni fuula Waaqayyoo duratti waan hamaa hojjetan. Baʼaalii fi Ashtooreti akkasumas waaqota Sooriyaa, Siidoonaa, Moʼaab, Amoonii fi kan Filisxeem waaqeffatan. Waan Israaʼeloonni Waaqayyoon dhiisanii isa waaqeffachuu didaniif,
7 Mukama n’anyiigira Isirayiri, n’abagabula mu mukono gw’Abafirisuuti ne mu mukono gw’abaana ba Amoni,
inni isaanitti dheekkame. Dabarsees harka Filisxeemotaatii fi Amoonotaatti isaan gurgure;
8 abaanyigiriza abaana ba Isirayiri, era ne babajooga okumala emyaka kkumi na munaana. Baanyigiriza abaana ba Isirayiri bonna abaali emitala wa Yoludaani ku luuyi olw’ebuvanjuba mu nsi y’Abamoli eri mu Gireyaadi.
isaanis bara sana ijoollee Israaʼel gad cabsanii cunqursan. Israaʼeloota biyya Amoorotaa kan Giliʼaad keessa karaa baʼaatiin laga Yordaanos bira jiraatan hundumaa waggaa kudha saddeet akka malee cunqursan.
9 Abaana ba Amoni nabo ne basomoka Yoludaani okulwanyisa Yuda ne Benyamini, n’ennyumba ya Efulayimu. Isirayiri ne yeeraliikirira nnyo.
Amoononnis gosa Yihuudaa, gosa Beniyaamii fi mana Efreem waraanuudhaaf laga Yordaanos ceʼan. Israaʼeloonnis akka malee raafaman.
10 Awo abaana ba Isirayiri ne bakaabira Mukama nga bagamba nti, “Ddala ddala twasobya, ne tuva ku Katonda waffe, ne tuweereza Babaali.”
Kanaafuu Israaʼeloonni, “Nu si Waaqa keenya dhiifnee Baʼaal waaqeffachuudhaan yakka sitti hojjenneerra” jedhanii Waaqayyotti iyyatan.
11 Mukama Katonda n’addamu abaana ba Isirayiri nti, “Abamisiri n’Abamoli, n’abaana ba Amoni, n’Abafirisuuti,
Waaqayyos akkana jedhee deebiseef; “Yeroo warri Gibxi, Amooronni, Amoononni, Filisxeemonni,
12 n’Abasidoni, n’Abamaleki, n’Abamawoni, bwe baabanyigiriza ne munkowoola, sabalokola okuva mu mukono gwabwe?
Siidoononni, Amaaleqoonnii fi Maaʼoononni isin cunqursinaan isin natti iyyattanitti ani harka isaanii jalaa isin hin baafnee?
13 Naye mwanvaako ne muweereza bakatonda abalala, noolwekyo sigenda kubalokola nate.
Isin garuu na dhiiftanii waaqota biraa waaqeffattan; kanaafuu ani siʼachi isin hin baasu.
14 Mugende mukaabire bakatonda abo be mwasalawo okuweereza, babalokole mu nnaku yammwe.”
Deemaatii waaqota filattan sanatti iyyadhaa. Yommuu isin rakkattan isaanumti isin haa oolchan!”
15 Naye abaana ba Isirayiri ne bagamba Mukama Katonda nti, “Twayonoona. Tukole kyonna ky’onoolaba nga kye kitusaanira. Kyokka tulokole kaakano.
Israaʼeloonnis Waaqayyoon, “Nu cubbuu hojjenneera. Ati waan feete nu godhi; amma garuu maaloo nu baasi” jedhan.
16 Ne baggya wakati mu bo bakatonda abalala, ne baweereza Mukama Katonda. Mukama n’alumwa olw’ennaku ya Isirayiri.”
Isaanis waaqota ormaa gidduu isaaniitii balleessanii Waaqayyoon waaqeffatan. Innis ergasii dhiphina Israaʼel calʼisee ilaaluu hin dandeenye.
17 Awo abaana ba Amoni ne basiisira mu Gireyaadi, n’abaana ba Isirayiri nabo ne basiisira mu Mizupa.
Yeroo Amoononni Giliʼaaditti wal gaʼanitti Israaʼeloonnis wal gaʼanii Miisphaa qubatan.
18 Abakulembeze b’abantu mu Gireyaadi ne bagambagana nti, “Omusajja anaasooka okulumba abaana ba Amoni, ye anaabeera omukulembeze w’abatuuze b’omu Gireyaadi.”
Hooggantoonni namoota Giliʼaadis, “Namni jalqabatti Amoonotatti waraana banu inni jiraattota Giliʼaad hundaaf hoogganaa taʼa” waliin jedhan.
