< 2 Seenaa 18 >
1 Yehooshaafaax yeroo kanatti qabeenyaa fi ulfina guddaa qaba ture; innis karaa fuudhaatiin Ahaabitti ni firoome.
Njalo uJehoshafathi wayelenotho lodumo ngobunengi; wahlangana ngobuhlobo loAhabi.
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.
Ekupheleni kweminyaka wasesehlela kuAhabi eSamariya. UAhabi wamhlabela izimvu lenkabi ngobunengi, labantu ababelaye, wamncenga ukuthi enyukele eRamothi-Gileyadi.
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.
UAhabi inkosi yakoIsrayeli wasesithi kuJehoshafathi inkosi yakoJuda: Uzahamba lami eRamothi-Gileyadi yini? Wasesithi kuye: Njengami unjalo wena, labantu bami banjengabantu bakho. Sizakuba lawe empini.
4 Yehooshaafaax garuu mootii Israaʼeliin, “Duraan dursii gorsa Waaqayyoo gaafadhu” jedhe.
UJehoshafathi wasesithi enkosini yakoIsrayeli: Akubuze lamuhla ilizwi leNkosi.
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.
Inkosi yakoIsrayeli yasibuthanisa abaprofethi, amadoda angamakhulu amane, yathi kubo: Sihambe yini eRamothi-Gileyadi empini kumbe ngiyekele? Basebesithi: Yenyuka, ngoba uNkulunkulu uzayinikela esandleni senkosi.
6 Yehooshaafaax immoo, “Akka nu waa isa gaafannuuf raajiin Waaqayyoo tokko iyyuu as hin jiruu?” jedhee gaafate.
Kodwa uJehoshafathi wathi: Kasekho yini lapha umprofethi weNkosi ukuthi sibuze kuye?
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.
Inkosi yakoIsrayeli yasisithi kuJehoshafathi: Kusekhona indoda eyodwa esingabuza ngayo eNkosini, kodwa mina ngiyamzonda ngoba kaprofethi lutho oluhle ngami, kodwa okubi zonke izinsuku zakhe; lo nguMikhaya indodana kaImla. UJehoshafathi wasesithi: Inkosi ingatsho njalo.
8 Kanaafuu mootiin Israaʼel qondaaltota isaa keessaa nama tokko waamee, “Dhaqiitii Miikaayaa ilma Yimlaa sana dafii fidi” jedheen.
Inkosi yakoIsrayeli yasibiza umthenwa othile yathi: Landa masinyane uMikhaya indodana kaImla.
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.
Njalo inkosi yakoIsrayeli loJehoshafathi inkosi yakoJuda babehlezi ngulowo lalowo esihlalweni sakhe sobukhosi, begqoke izembatho, behlezi ebaleni engenelweni lesango leSamariya, bonke abaprofethi beprofetha-ke phambi kwabo.
10 Kana irratti Zedeqiyaan ilmi Keniʼaanaa gaanfawwan sibiilaa tolchee, “Waaqayyo, ‘Ati hamma isaan dhumanitti gaanfawwan kanneeniin warra Sooriyaa ni wawwaraanta’ jedha” jedhee labse.
UZedekhiya indodana kaKhenahana wasezenzela impondo zensimbi, wathi: Itsho njalo iNkosi: Ngalezi uzahlaba amaSiriya uze uwaqede.
11 Raajonni kaan hundinuus waanuma kana raajan. Isaanis, “Waaqayyo dabarsee harka mootichaatti ishee kennaatii, Raamooti Giliʼaadin lolii moʼadhu” jedhan.
Labo bonke abaprofethi baprofetha njalo, besithi: Yenyukela eRamothi-Gileyadi uphumelele, ngoba iNkosi izayinikela esandleni senkosi.
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.
Isithunywa esasiyebiza uMikhaya sakhuluma kuye sisithi: Khangela, amazwi abaprofethi ngamlomo munye mahle enkosini; ngakho ilizwi lakho ake lifanane lelomunye wabo, ukhulume okuhle.
13 Miikaayaan garuu deebisee, “Dhugaa Waaqayyo jiraataa, ani waanuma Waaqni koo jedhu qofan isatti hima” jedhe.
Kodwa uMikhaya wathi: Kuphila kukaJehova, ngeqiniso lokho uNkulunkulu wami akutshoyo, lokho ngizakukhuluma.
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.
Esefikile enkosini, inkosi yathi kuye: Mikhaya, siye eRamothi-Gileyadi empini kumbe ngiyekele yini? Wasesithi: Yenyukani, liphumelele, ngoba bazanikelwa esandleni senu.
15 Mootichi immoo, “Ani yeroo hammamin akka ati dhugaa malee waan tokko illee natti hin himne maqaa Waaqayyootiin si kakachiisa?” jedheen.
Inkosi yasisithi kuye: Ngizakufungisa kuze kube yizikhathi ezingaki ukuze ungakhulumi kimi ngaphandle kweqiniso ebizweni leNkosi?
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.’”
Wasesithi: Ngabona uIsrayeli wonke echithekile phezu kwezintaba njengezimvu ezingelamelusi; iNkosi yasisithi: Laba kabalamakhosi, kababuyele ngulowo endlini yakhe ngokuthula.
17 Mootiin Israaʼelis Yehooshaafaaxiin, “Ani akka inni waaʼee koo waan hamaa malee waan gaarii tokko iyyuu hin raajne sitti hin himnee?” jedhe.
Inkosi yakoIsrayeli yasisithi kuJehoshafathi: Kangikutshelanga yini: Kayikuprofetha okuhle ngami kodwa okubi kuphela?
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.
Wasesithi: Ngakho zwanini ilizwi leNkosi. Ngabona iNkosi ihlezi esihlalweni sayo sobukhosi, lexuku lonke lamazulu limi ngakwesokunene sayo langakwesokhohlo sayo.
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.
INkosi yasisithi: Ngubani ozahuga uAhabi inkosi yakoIsrayeli ukuze enyuke awe eRamothi-Gileyadi? Omunye wasekhuluma esitsho ngokunjalo, lomunye esitsho ngokunjalo.
20 Dhuma irratti hafuurri tokko dhufee fuula Waaqayyoo dura dhaabatee, ‘Anatu isa gowwoomsa’ jedhe. “Waaqayyos, ‘Ati maaliin isa dogoggorsita?’ jedhee isa gaafate.
Kwasekuphuma umoya, wema phambi kweNkosi wathi: Mina ngizamhuga. INkosi yasisithi kuwo: Ngani?
21 “Innis, ‘Ani dhaqee afaan raajota isaa hunda keessatti hafuura sobaa nan taʼa’ jedhe. “Waaqayyos, ‘Dhaqiitii isa dogoggorsi; ni milkooftaatii’ isaan jedheen.
Wasusithi: Ngizaphuma ngibe ngumoya wamanga emlonyeni wabo bonke abaprofethi bakhe. Yasisithi: Uzamhuga, njalo uzakuba lamandla; phuma wenze njalo.
22 “Kanaafuu Waaqayyo amma afaan raajota kee kanneenii keessa hafuura sobaa kaaʼeera. Waaqayyo badiisa sitti ajajeera.”
Ngakho-ke, khangela, iNkosi ifake umoya wamanga emlonyeni walababaprofethi bakho, njalo iNkosi ikhulume okubi ngawe.
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.
UZedekhiya indodana kaKhenahana wasesondela, watshaya uMikhaya esihlathini, wathi: UMoya weNkosi wedlula ngandlela bani esuka kimi ukuthi akhulume lawe?
24 Miikaayaanis, “Ati gaafa dhokachuuf jettee gara kutaa manaa kan gara keessaatti ol galtutti argita” jedhee deebiseef.
UMikhaya wasesithi: Khangela, uzabona ngalolosuku mhla uzangena ekamelweni phakathi kwekamelo ukuthi ucatshe.
25 Kana irratti mootiin Israaʼel akkana jedhee ajaje; “Miikaayaa fuudhaatii gara Aamoon bulchaa magaalaa fi gara Yooʼaash ilma mootichaatti geessaatii,
Inkosi yakoIsrayeli yasisithi: Thathani uMikhaya, limbuyisele kuAmoni umbusi womuzi lakuJowashi indodana yenkosi,
26 ‘Mootichi akkana jedha: Hamma ani nagaan deebiʼutti namicha kana mana hidhaa keessa buusaa; buddeenaa fi bishaan malees homaa hin kenninaafii’ jedhaan.”
lithi: Itsho njalo inkosi: Fakani lo entolongweni, limdlise isinkwa senhlupho lamanzi enhlupho ngize ngibuye ngokuthula.
27 Miikaayaan immoo, “Yoo ati nagaan deebite, Waaqayyo karaa kootiin hin dubbanne” jedheen. Ittuma fufees, “Yaa saboota, isin hundi dubbii koo akeekkadhaa!” jedhe.
UMikhaya wasesithi: Uba ubuya lokubuya ngokuthula, iNkosi izabe ingakhulumanga ngami. Wathi: Lalelani, bantu lonke.
28 Kanaafuu mootiin Israaʼelii fi Yehooshaafaax mootiin Yihuudaa Raamooti Giliʼaaditti ol baʼan.
Ngakho inkosi yakoIsrayeli loJehoshafathi inkosi yakoJuda benyukela eRamothi-Gileyadi.
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.
Inkosi yakoIsrayeli yasisithi kuJehoshafathi: Ngizazifihla isimo, ngingene empini, kodwa wena gqoka izembatho zakho. Inkosi yakoIsrayeli yasizifihla isimo, basebengena empini.
30 Yeroo kanatti mootiin Sooriyaa ajajjoota gaariiwwan isaatiin, “Mootii Israaʼelitti malee xinnaas taʼu guddaatti, nama tokkottuu lola hin kaasinaa” jedhee ajaje.
Inkosi yeSiriya yayilayile-ke izinduna zenqola eyayilazo isithi: Lingalwi lomncane loba omkhulu, kodwa lenkosi yakoIsrayeli kuphela.
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;
Kwasekusithi induna zezinqola zibona uJehoshafathi zona zathi: Yena uyinkosi yakoIsrayeli. Ngakho zamhanqela ukulwa. Kodwa uJehoshafathi wahlaba umkhosi; iNkosi yasimsiza. UNkulunkulu wazihuga zasuka kuye.
32 ajajjoonni gaariiwwaniis yommuu akka inni mootii Israaʼel hin taʼin arganitti isa ariʼuu dhiisan.
Ngoba kwathi lapho induna zezinqola zibona ukuthi kwakungayisiyo inkosi yakoIsrayeli, zaphenduka ekuyilandeleni.
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.
Umuntu othile wasedonsa idandili engananzelele, wahlaba inkosi yakoIsrayeli phakathi kwenhlangano lebhatshi lensimbi; yasisithi kumtshayeli wenqola: Phendula isandla sakho, ungikhuphe ebuthweni, ngoba ngilimele.
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.
Impi yasikhula mhlalokho; inkosi yayisekelwe enqoleni iqondene lamaSiriya kwaze kwaba ntambama; yafa ngesikhathi sokutshona kwelanga.
