2 Seenaa 14

1 Abiyaanis abbootii ofii isaa wajjin boqotee Magaalaa Daawit keessatti awwaalame. Ilmi isaa Aasaan iddoo isaa buʼee mootii taʼe; bara isaa keessas biyyattiin waggaa kudhan nagaadhaan jiraatte.

Forsothe Abia slepte with hise fadris, and thei birieden hym in the citee of Dauid; and Asa, his sone, regnede for hym. In whos daies the lond restide ten yeer.

2 Aasaan waan fuula Waaqayyo Waaqa isaa duratti gaarii fi qajeelaa taʼe hojjete.

And Asa dide that, that was good and plesaunt in the siyt of his God, and he destriede the auteris of straunge worschipyng, and `he destriede hiy places,

3 Innis iddoowwan aarsaa waaqota ormaa fi iddoowwan sagadaa kanneen gaarran irraa ni diige; soodduuwwan dhagaa fi siidaawwan Aasheeraa ni caccabse.

and brak ymagis, and kittide doun woodis;

4 Akka sabni Yihuudaa Waaqayyo Waaqa abbootii isaa barbaadu, akka seera isaa fi ajaja isaaf bulu ni ajaje.

and he comaundide Juda to seke the Lord God of her fadris, and to do the lawe and alle comaundementis.

5 Magaalaawwan Yihuudaa hunda keessaas iddoowwan sagadaa kanneen gaarran irraa fi iddoowwan aarsaa ixaanaa balleesse; mootummaanis isa jalatti nagaadhaan ni jiraate.

And he took awei fro alle the citees of Juda auteris and templis of idols, and he regnede in pees.

6 Innis waan biyyattiin nagaa argatteef Yihuudaa keessatti magaalaawwan dallaa jabaa qaban ni ijaare. Sababii Waaqayyo boqonnaa isaaf kenneef waggoota sana keessa namni tokko iyyuu lola isatti hin kaafne.

And he bildide stronge cytees in Juda; for he was in reste, and no batels risiden in his tymes, for the Lord yaf pees.

7 Innis namoota Yihuudaan akkana jedhe; “Kottaa nu magaalaawwan kanneen haa ijaarru; dallaa gamoo, cufaa fi danqaraawwan qabu itti naannessinee haa ijaarru; sababii nu Waaqayyo Waaqa keenya barbaanneef lafti kun ammas keenyuma; nu isa barbaanne; innis karaa hundaan boqonnaa nuuf kenne.” Isaan ni ijaaran; hojiin isaaniis ni milkaaʼeef.

Forsothe he seide to Juda, Bilde we these cytees, and cumpasse we with wallis, and strengthe we with touris and yatis and lockis, as longe as alle thingis ben restful fro batel; for we han souyte the Lord God of oure fadris, and he hath youe to vs pees bi cumpas. Therfor thei bildiden, and no lettyng was in bildyng.

8 Aasaan namoota Yihuudaa kanneen gaachana gurguddaa fi eeboo qabatan kuma dhibba sadii, namoota Beniyaam kanneen gaachana xixinnaa fi xiyyawwan qabatan kuma dhibba lamaa fi saddeettama qaba ture. Isaan kunneen hundi loltoota ciccimoo turan.

Sotheli Asa hadde in his oost thre hundrid thousynde of men of Juda berynge scheldis and speris, sotheli of Beniamyn he hadde two hundrid thousynde and fourscoore thousynde of scheeld beeris and of archeris; alle these weren ful stronge men.

9 Zeraan namichi Itoophiyaa tokko immoo loltoota miliyoona tokkoo fi gaariiwwan dhibba sadii fudhatee hamma Maareeshaatti isaanitti ni duule.

Forsothe Zara of Ethiop yede out ayens hem with his oost ten `sithis an hundrid thousynde, and with thre hundrid charis, and cam `til to Masera.

10 Aasaanis isatti baʼe; isaanis Sulula Zefaataa keessatti Maareeshaa iddoo lolaa qabatan.

Certis Aza yede ayens hem, and araiede scheltrun to batel in the valei Sephata, which is bisidis Masera. And he inwardli clepide the Lord God,

11 Kana irratti Aasaan Waaqayyo Waaqa isaa waammatee akkana jedhe; “Yaa Waaqayyo, kan akka kee namoota humna hin qabne gargaaree namoota jajjaboo jalaa baasu tokko iyyuu hin jiru. Yaa Waaqayyo Waaqa keenya, nu sitti of kennineerraatii nu gargaari; maqaa keetiinis waraana akka malee guddaa kanatti duulleerra. Yaa Waaqayyo ati Waaqa keenya; akka namni sitti cimuuf ofitti hin dhiisin.”

and seide, Lord, no dyuersitee is anentis thee, whether thou helpe in fewe, ethir in manye; oure Lord God, helpe thou vs, for we han trist in thee and in thi name, and camen ayens this multitude; Lord, thou art oure God, a man haue not the maistrye ayens thee.

12 Waaqayyos fuula Aasaatii fi Yihuudaa duraa namoota Itoophiyoota ni dhaʼe; namoonni Itoophiyaas ni baqatan.

Therfor the Lord made aferd Ethiopens bifor Asa and Juda, and Ethiopens fledden; and Asa and his puple,

13 Aasaa fi loltoonni isaas hamma Geraaraatti isaan ariʼan. Waan Baayʼeen isaanii dhumaniif namoonni Itoophiyaa deebiʼanii bayyanachuu hin dandeenye; isaan fuula Waaqayyoo fi fuula loltoota isaa duratti barbadeeffamaniiruutii. Namoonni Yihuudaas boojuu baayʼee fudhatanii deebiʼan.

that was with hym, pursuede hem `til to Gerare. And Ethiopens felden doun `til to deeth, for thei weren al to-brokun bi the Lord sleynge, and bi his oost fiytynge. Therfor thei token many spuylis,

14 Isaan sababii sodaachisni guddaan Waaqayyo biraa jaratti dhufeef gandoota naannoo Geraaraa jiran hunda barbadeessan. Isaanis sababii wantoonni boojiʼaman hedduun achi turaniif gandoota kanneen ni saaman.

and smitiden alle the citees `bi the cumpas of Gerare; for greet drede hadde assailid alle men. And thei rifliden cytees, and baren a weye myche prey;

15 Akkasumas qubatawwan tiksootaa dhaʼanii karra hoolotaa fi reʼoota akka malee hedduu fi gaalawwan illee boojiʼanii fudhatan. Ergasiis Yerusaalemitti dachaʼan.

but also thei destrieden the fooldis of scheep, and token multitude without noumbre of scheep and of camels, and turneden ayen in to Jerusalem.
