2 Seenaa 26
1 Ergasii namoonni Yihuudaa hundi Uziyaan nama waggaa kudha jaʼa sana fuudhanii iddoo abbaa isaa iddoo Amasiyaa buusanii mootii ni godhan.
All the people of Judah took Uzziah, who was sixteen years old, and made him king in place of his father Amaziah.
2 Erga Amasiyaa abbootii isaa wajjin boqotee booddee namni Eelootin deebisee ijaaree gara Yihuudaatti deebisee Uziyaan ture.
It was he who rebuilt Elath and restored it to Judah. After that the king slept with his ancestors.
3 Uziyaan yeroo mootii taʼetti nama waggaa kudha jaʼa ture; innis Yerusaalem keessa taaʼee waggaa shantamii lama ni bulche; maqaan haadha isaa Yekooliyaa ture; isheenis nama Yerusaalem turte.
Uzziah was sixteen years old when he began to reign. He reigned for fifty-two years in Jerusalem. His mother's name was Jekoliah; she was from Jerusalem.
4 Innis akkuma abbaa isaa Amasiyaa sana fuula Waaqayyoo duratti waan qajeelaa ni hojjete.
He did what was right in the eyes of Yahweh, following the example of his father, Amaziah, in everything.
5 Inni bara Zakkaariyaas isa akka inni Waaqa sodaatu isa barsiise sanaa keessa Waaqa barbaade. Yeroo inni Waaqayyoon barbaade hundas Waaqni isa ni milkoomse.
He set himself to seek God in the days of Zechariah, who taught him to honor God. As long as he sought Yahweh, God made him prosper.
6 Innis Filisxeemotatti duulee dallaawwan Gaati, kan Yabinee fi kan Ashdood ni diige. Ergasii Ashdood birattii fi bulchiinsota Filisxeemotaa kaan keessatti magaalaawwan deebisee ni ijaare.
Uzziah went out and fought against the Philistines. He broke down the city walls of Gath, Jabneh, and Ashdod; he built cities in the country of Ashdod and among the Philistines.
7 Yeroo inni Filisxiyaatti, Araboota Guur Baʼaalittii fi Meʼuunootatti kaʼetti Waaqni isa gargaare.
God helped him against the Philistines, against the Arabians who lived in Gurbaal, and against the Meunites.
8 Warri Amoonis Uziyaaniif gibira ni fidan; sababii inni baayʼee jabaateef gurri isaa hamma daangaa Gibxitti beekame.
The Ammonites paid tribute to Uzziah, and his fame spread, even to the entrance of Egypt, because he was becoming more powerful.
9 Uziyaanis Yerusaalem keessatti Karra Golee irratti, Karra sululaa irrattii fi golee dallaa irratti gamoowwan eegumsaa ni ijaare.
In addition, Uzziah built towers in Jerusalem at the Corner Gate, at the Valley Gate, and at the turning of the wall, and fortified them.
10 Akkasumas inni sababii gaarran jalaa fi dirree irraa horii akka malee baayʼee qabuuf gammoojjii keessatti gamoowwan eegumsaa ijaaree boolla bishaanii hedduus ni qote; inni waan hojii qotiisaa jaallatuuf qottoota gaarranii fi lafa gabbataa qotanii wayiniis dhaaban qaba ture.
He built watchtowers in the wilderness and dug many cisterns, for he had much cattle, in the lowlands as well as in the plains. He had farmers and vine growers in the hill country and in the fruitful fields, for he loved farming.
11 Kana malees Uziyaan hoomaa waraanaa kan akka gaarii leenjifamee waraanaaf qophaaʼe qaba ture; hoomaan waraanaa kunis dura buʼummaa Hanaaniyaa isa qondaaltota mootichaa keessaa tokko taʼe sanaan akkuma baayʼina isaaniitti garee gareedhaan Yeʼiiʼeel barreessaa sanaa fi Maʼaseyaa ajajjichaan gurmeeffame.
In addition, Uzziah had an army of fighting men who went out to war in groups which were organized by their number that were counted by Jeiel, the scribe, and Maaseiah, the officer, under the authority of Hananiah, one of the king's commanders.
12 Baayʼinni hooggantota maatii kanneen loltoota irratti muudamanii walumatti 2,600 ture.
The whole number of the leaders of the families who led the mighty men was 2,600.
13 Ajaja isaanii jalattis hoomaa waraanaa kan namoota lolaaf leenjifaman 307,500 of keessaa qabu tokkotu ture; hoomaan kunis humna guddaa kan yeroo mootichi diinota isaatti duulutti isa gargaaruu dha.
Under their hand was an army of 307,500 men that made war with mighty power to help the king against the enemy.
14 Uziyaan loltoota hundaaf gaachana, eeboo, gonfoo sibiilaa, qomee sibiilaa, xiyyaa fi furrisa dhagaa kenne.
Uzziah prepared for them—for all the army—shields, spears, helmets, coats of mail, bows, and stones for slinging.
15 Innis Yerusaalem keessatti meeshaawwan namoota ogeeyyiidhaan hojjetaman kanneen gamoowwan eegumsaatii fi goleewwan ittisaa gubbaatti xiyya darbachuu fi dhagaa furuursuuf fayyadan ijaare. Innis hamma jabaatutti waan gargaarsa argateef maqaan isaa fagootti illee balʼinaan ni beekame.
In Jerusalem he built machines that were designed by skillful men to be on the towers and on the battlements to shoot arrows and large stones. His fame spread to distant lands, for he was greatly helped and so he became very powerful.
16 Garuu Uziyaan erga jabaatee booddee, of tuulummaan isaa kufaatii isatti fide. Innis iddoo aarsaa ixaanaatti ixaana aarsuuf mana qulqullummaa Waaqayyoo seenuudhaan amanamummaa Waaqayyo Waaqa isaatiif qabu irraa duubatti ni deebiʼe.
But when Uzziah had become powerful, his heart was lifted up so that he acted corruptly; he trespassed against Yahweh, his God, for he went into the house of Yahweh to burn incense on the altar of incense.
17 Azaariyaa lubichis luboota Waaqayyoo warra waa hin sodaanne kan biraa saddeettama wajjin isa duukaa ni seene.
Azariah, the priest, went in after him, and with him eighty priests of Yahweh, who were brave men.
18 Isaanis Uziyaan mootichaan mormanii, “Yaa Uziyaan Waaqayyoof ixaana aarsuun luboota sanyii Aroon warra ixaana aarsuuf filataman sanaaf malee siif hin malu. Ati sababii amanamaa hin taʼiniif Waaqayyo Waaqa biraa ulfina hin argattuutii iddoo qulqulluu kanaa baʼi” jedhaniin.
They resisted Uzziah, the king, and said to him, “It is not for you, Uzziah, to burn incense to Yahweh, but for the priests, the sons of Aaron, who are consecrated to burn incense. Go out of the holy place, for you have been unfaithful and you will not be honored by Yahweh God.”
19 Uziyaanis utuu ixaana aarsuuf girgiraa harkatti qabatee qophaaʼee jiruu ni aare. Innis utuma mana qulqullummaa Waaqayyoo keessatti iddoo aarsaa ixaana duratti lubootatti aaraa jiruu ijuma isaanii duratti lamxiin adda isaatti ni baʼe.
Then Uzziah became angry. He was holding a censer in his hand to burn incense. While he was angry with the priests, leprosy broke out on his forehead before the priests in the house of Yahweh, beside the altar of incense.
20 Azaariyaa lubichi hangafnii fi luboonni biraa hundinuu yeroo isa ilaalanitti akka lamxiin adda isaa irra jiru ni argan; kanaafuu isaan dafanii gad isa baasan. Sababii dheekkamsi Waaqayyoo isa dhaʼeef dhugumaan inni iyyuu baʼuuf ariifatee ture.
Azariah the chief priest and all the priests looked at him, and, behold, he had become leprous on his forehead. They quickly drove him out of there. Indeed, he hurried to go out, because Yahweh had struck him.
21 Uziyaan mootichi hamma gaafa duʼuutti lamxaaʼee ture. Innis waan lamxaaʼee tureef mana qulqullummaa Waaqayyoo irraa citee mana kophaa keessa ni jiraate. Ilmi isaa Yootaam ilmi isaa itti gaafatama masaraa mootummaa fudhatee saba biyyattii bulche.
Uzziah, the king, was a leper to the day of his death and lived in a separate house since he was a leper, for he was cut off from the house of Yahweh. Jotham, his son, was over the king's house and ruled the people of the land.
22 Wantoonni bara mootummaa Uziyaan keessa jalqabaa hamma dhumaatti hojjetaman biraan Isaayyaas raajicha ilma Amoosiin galmeeffamaniiru.
The other matters concerning Uzziah, from first to last, were recorded by the prophet Isaiah son of Amoz.
23 Uziyaanis abbootii isaa wajjin boqotee sababii namoonni, “Inni lamxii qaba” jedhaniif inni lafa awwaala moototaa keessatti isaanuma biratti ni awwaalame. Ilmi isaa Yootaam iddoo isaa buʼee mootii taʼe.
So Uzziah slept with his ancestors; they buried him with his ancestors in a burial ground that belonged to the kings, for they said, “He is a leper.” Jotham, his son, became king in his place.
