< 2 Seenaa 18 >
1 Yehooshaafaax yeroo kanatti qabeenyaa fi ulfina guddaa qaba ture; innis karaa fuudhaatiin Ahaabitti ni firoome.
Now Jehoshaphat had riches and honor in abundance; and he joined affinity with Ahab.
2 Innis waggoota muraasa booddee Ahaabin arguuf gara Samaariyaatti gad buʼe. Ahaabis isaa fi namoota isa wajjin turaniif hoolotaa fi sangoota baayʼee qalee akka inni Raamooti Giliʼaad lolu isa sossobate.
After certain years he went down to Ahab to Samaria. Ahab killed sheep and cattle for him in abundance, and for the people who were with him, and moved him to go up with him to Ramoth Gilead.
3 Ahaab mootichi Israaʼel, “Ati Raamooti Giliʼaadin loluuf na wajjin ni baataa?” jedhee Yehooshaafaax mooticha Yihuudaa gaafate. Yehooshaafaaxis, “Ani akkuma kee ti; sabni koos akkuma saba keetii ti; nu waraana kana irratti isin wajjin dhaabanna” jedhee deebise.
Ahab king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat king of Judah, "Will you go with me to Ramoth Gilead?" He answered him, "I am as you are, and my people as your people. We will be with you in the war."
4 Yehooshaafaax garuu mootii Israaʼeliin, “Duraan dursii gorsa Waaqayyoo gaafadhu” jedhe.
Jehoshaphat said to the king of Israel, "Please inquire first for the word of YHWH."
5 Kanaafuu mootichi Israaʼel raajota dhibba afur walitti qabee, “Nu Raamooti Giliʼaadin loluudhaaf baanu moo dhiisnu?” jedhee ni gaafate. Isaanis, “Dhaqi; Waaqni dabarsee harka mootichaatti ishee kennaatii” jedhanii deebisaniif.
Then the king of Israel gathered the prophets together, four hundred men, and said to them, "Shall we go to Ramoth Gilead to battle, or shall I refrain?" They said, "Go up; for God will deliver it into the hand of the king."
6 Yehooshaafaax immoo, “Akka nu waa isa gaafannuuf raajiin Waaqayyoo tokko iyyuu as hin jiruu?” jedhee gaafate.
But Jehoshaphat said, "Isn't there here a prophet of YHWH besides, that we may inquire of him?"
7 Mootiin Israaʼel immoo Yehooshaafaaxiin, “Amma illee namichi nu karaa isaatiin Waaqayyoon waa gaafachuu dandeenyu tokko jira; garuu sababii inni yeroo hunda waaʼee koo waan hamaa malee waan gaarii raajii hin dubbanneef ani isa nan jibba. Innis Miikaayaa ilma Yimlaa ti” jedhe. Yehooshaafaax immoo deebisee, “Mootichi akkas jechuu hin qabu” jedheen.
The king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, "There is yet one man by whom we may inquire of YHWH; but I hate him, for he never prophesies good concerning me, but always evil. He is Micaiah the son of Imla." Jehoshaphat said, "Do not let the king say so."
8 Kanaafuu mootiin Israaʼel qondaaltota isaa keessaa nama tokko waamee, “Dhaqiitii Miikaayaa ilma Yimlaa sana dafii fidi” jedheen.
Then the king of Israel called an officer, and said, "Get Micaiah the son of Imla quickly."
9 Mootichi Israaʼelii fi Yehooshaafaax mootiin Yihuudaa uffata isaanii kan mootummaa uffatanii balbala Samaariyaa seensisu bira oobdii keessa teessoo isaanii irra tataaʼanii raajonni hundi immoo fuula isaanii duratti raajii dubbachaa turan.
Now the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat the king of Judah sat each on his throne, arrayed in their robes, and they were sitting in an open place at the entrance of the gate of Samaria; and all the prophets were prophesying before them.
10 Kana irratti Zedeqiyaan ilmi Keniʼaanaa gaanfawwan sibiilaa tolchee, “Waaqayyo, ‘Ati hamma isaan dhumanitti gaanfawwan kanneeniin warra Sooriyaa ni wawwaraanta’ jedha” jedhee labse.
Zedekiah the son of Kenaanah made him horns of iron, and said, "Thus says YHWH, 'With these you shall push the Arameans, until they are consumed.'"
11 Raajonni kaan hundinuus waanuma kana raajan. Isaanis, “Waaqayyo dabarsee harka mootichaatti ishee kennaatii, Raamooti Giliʼaadin lolii moʼadhu” jedhan.
All the prophets prophesied so, saying, "Go up to Ramoth Gilead, and prosper; for YHWH will deliver it into the hand of the king."
12 Ergamaan Miikaayaa waamuu dhaqe sunis, “Kunoo raajonni kaan utuu gargar hin gorin milkaaʼuu mootichaaf himaa jiru. Maaloo dubbiin kees dubbii isaaniitiin tokko akka taʼuuf atis waan tolaa dubbadhu” jedheen.
The messenger who went to call Micaiah spoke to him, saying, "Look, the words of the prophets declare good to the king with one mouth. Let your word therefore, please be like one of theirs, and speak good."
13 Miikaayaan garuu deebisee, “Dhugaa Waaqayyo jiraataa, ani waanuma Waaqni koo jedhu qofan isatti hima” jedhe.
Micaiah said, "As YHWH lives, whatever my God says to me, that I will speak."
14 Yommuu inni achi gaʼettis mootichi, “Yaa Miikaayaa, nu Raamooti Giliʼaaditti duullu moo ani dhiisu?” jedhee isa gaafate. Miikaayaanis, “Isaan dabarfamanii harka keetti kennamuutii waraanii moʼadhu” jedhee deebise.
When he had come to the king, the king said to him, "Micaiah, shall we go to Ramoth Gilead to battle, or shall I refrain?" He said, "Go up, and prosper. They shall be delivered into your hand."
15 Mootichi immoo, “Ani yeroo hammamin akka ati dhugaa malee waan tokko illee natti hin himne maqaa Waaqayyootiin si kakachiisa?” jedheen.
The king said to him, "How many times shall I adjure you that you speak to me nothing but the truth in the name of YHWH?"
16 Kana irratti Miikaayaan akkana jedhee deebise; “Ani Israaʼeloota hunda akkuma hoolota tiksee hin qabneetti gaara irratti bittinnaaʼan nan arge. Waaqayyos, ‘Sabni kun gooftaa hin qabu. Tokkoon tokkoon isaanii nagaadhaan mana isaaniitti haa deebiʼan.’”
He said, "I saw all Israel scattered on the mountains, as sheep that have no shepherd. YHWH said, 'These have no master. Let them return every man to his house in peace.'"
17 Mootiin Israaʼelis Yehooshaafaaxiin, “Ani akka inni waaʼee koo waan hamaa malee waan gaarii tokko iyyuu hin raajne sitti hin himnee?” jedhe.
The king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, "Did I not tell you that he would not prophesy good concerning me, but evil?"
18 Miikiyaas ittuma fufee akkana jedhe; “Kanaafuu ati dubbii Waaqayyoo dhagaʼi; ani utuu Waaqayyo teessoo isaa irra taaʼee, ergamoonni samii hundis mirgaa fi bitaa isaatiin dhadhaabatanuu nan arge.
Micaiah said, "Therefore hear the word of YHWH: I saw YHWH sitting on his throne, and all the army of heaven standing on his right hand and on his left.
19 Waaqayyos, ‘Eenyutu akka inni dhaqee Raamooti Giliʼaadin lolee achitti duʼuuf Ahaab mooticha Israaʼel gowwoomsa?’ jedhe. “Inni tokko waan tokko jedha; inni kaan immoo waan biraa jedha.
YHWH said, 'Who shall entice Ahab king of Israel, that he may go up and fall at Ramoth Gilead?' One spoke saying in this way, and another saying in that way.
20 Dhuma irratti hafuurri tokko dhufee fuula Waaqayyoo dura dhaabatee, ‘Anatu isa gowwoomsa’ jedhe. “Waaqayyos, ‘Ati maaliin isa dogoggorsita?’ jedhee isa gaafate.
A spirit came out, stood before YHWH, and said, 'I will entice him.' "YHWH said to him, 'How?'
21 “Innis, ‘Ani dhaqee afaan raajota isaa hunda keessatti hafuura sobaa nan taʼa’ jedhe. “Waaqayyos, ‘Dhaqiitii isa dogoggorsi; ni milkooftaatii’ isaan jedheen.
"He said, 'I will go forth, and will be a lying spirit in the mouth of all his prophets.' "He said, 'You will entice him, and will prevail also. Go forth, and do so.'
22 “Kanaafuu Waaqayyo amma afaan raajota kee kanneenii keessa hafuura sobaa kaaʼeera. Waaqayyo badiisa sitti ajajeera.”
"Now therefore, look, YHWH has put a lying spirit in the mouth of these your prophets; and YHWH has pronounced disaster concerning you."
23 Kana irratti Zedeqiyaan ilmi Keniʼaanaa ol baʼee Miikaayaa fuula keessa kabalee, “Hafuurri Waaqayyoo yommuu sitti dubbachuuf na biraa baʼetti karaa kam deeme?” jedhee gaafate.
Then Zedekiah the son of Kenaanah came near, and struck Micaiah on the cheek, and said, "Which way did the Spirit of YHWH go from me to speak to you?"
24 Miikaayaanis, “Ati gaafa dhokachuuf jettee gara kutaa manaa kan gara keessaatti ol galtutti argita” jedhee deebiseef.
Micaiah said, "Look, you shall see on that day, when you shall go into an inner room to hide yourself."
25 Kana irratti mootiin Israaʼel akkana jedhee ajaje; “Miikaayaa fuudhaatii gara Aamoon bulchaa magaalaa fi gara Yooʼaash ilma mootichaatti geessaatii,
The king of Israel said, "Take Micaiah, and carry him back to Amon the governor of the city, and to Joash the king's son;
26 ‘Mootichi akkana jedha: Hamma ani nagaan deebiʼutti namicha kana mana hidhaa keessa buusaa; buddeenaa fi bishaan malees homaa hin kenninaafii’ jedhaan.”
and say, 'Thus says the king, "Put this fellow in the prison, and feed him with bread of affliction and with water of affliction, until I return in peace."'"
27 Miikaayaan immoo, “Yoo ati nagaan deebite, Waaqayyo karaa kootiin hin dubbanne” jedheen. Ittuma fufees, “Yaa saboota, isin hundi dubbii koo akeekkadhaa!” jedhe.
Micaiah said, "If you return at all in peace, YHWH has not spoken by me." He said, "Listen, you peoples, all of you."
28 Kanaafuu mootiin Israaʼelii fi Yehooshaafaax mootiin Yihuudaa Raamooti Giliʼaaditti ol baʼan.
So the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat the king of Judah went up to Ramoth Gilead.
29 Mootiin Israaʼel Yehooshaafaaxiin, “Ani eenyummaa koo dhokfadheen lola seena; ati garuu uffata mootummaa uffadhu” jedhe. Kanaafuu mootiin Israaʼel eenyummaa ofii isaa dhokfatee lola seene.
The king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, "I will disguise myself, and go into the battle; but you put on your robes." So the king of Israel disguised himself; and they went into the battle.
30 Yeroo kanatti mootiin Sooriyaa ajajjoota gaariiwwan isaatiin, “Mootii Israaʼelitti malee xinnaas taʼu guddaatti, nama tokkottuu lola hin kaasinaa” jedhee ajaje.
Now the king of Aram had commanded the captains of his chariots, saying, "Fight neither with small nor great, except only with the king of Israel."
31 Ajajjoonni gaariiwwanii yommuu Yehooshaafaaxin arganitti, “Kun mootii Israaʼel” jedhanii yaadan. Kanaafuu isa rukutuuf itti garagalan; Yehooshaafaax garuu guddisee iyye; Waaqayyos isa gargaare. Waaqnis isa irraa isaan deebise;
It happened, when the captains of the chariots saw Jehoshaphat, that they said, "It is the king of Israel." Therefore they turned around to fight against him. But Jehoshaphat cried out, and YHWH helped him; and God moved them to depart from him.
32 ajajjoonni gaariiwwaniis yommuu akka inni mootii Israaʼel hin taʼin arganitti isa ariʼuu dhiisan.
It happened, when the captains of the chariots saw that it was not the king of Israel, that they turned back from pursuing him.
33 Garuu namichi tokko xiyya ofii isaa darbatee akkuma tasaa qomee sibiilaa gidduudhaan mooticha Israaʼel ni waraane. Mootichis ooftuu gaarii isaatiin, “Gaarii naannessiitii lola keessaa na baasi. Ani madaaʼeeraatii” jedhe.
A certain man drew his bow at random, and struck the king of Israel between the joints of the armor. Therefore he said to the driver of the chariot, "Turn your hand, and carry me out of the army; for I am severely wounded."
34 Lolli sunis guyyaa guutuu ittuma cimee oole; mootiin Israaʼelis ol jedhee hamma aduun dhiitutti gara warra Sooriyaatti garagalee irkatee gaarii isaa keessa oole. Yommuu biiftuun lixxettis ni duʼe.
The battle increased that day. However the king of Israel propped himself up in his chariot against the Arameans until the evening; and about the time of the going down of the sun, he died.
