2 Seenaa 28

1 Aahaaz yeroo mootii taʼetti nama waggaa digdama ture; innis Yerusaalem keessa taaʼee waggaa kudha jaʼa ni bulche. Inni akka abbaa isaa akka Daawit fuula Waaqayyoo duratti waan qajeelaa hin hojjenne.

Achaz was five and twenty years old when he began to reign, and he reigned sixteen years in Jerusalem: and he did not that which was right in the sight of the Lord, as David his father.

2 Inni karaa mootota Israaʼel duukaa buʼee Baʼaalin waaqeffachuuf jedhees waaqota tolfamoo baqsee ni tolche.

But he walked in the ways of the kings of Israel, for he made graven images.

3 Inni gochawwan jibbisiisoo saboota Waaqayyo fuula Israaʼelootaa duraa ariʼee baase sanaa hojjechuudhaan Sulula Ben Hinoom keessatti ixaana ni aarse; ilmaan isaa illee aarsaa godhee ibiddaan gube.

And [he sacrificed] to their idols in the valley of Benennom, and passed his children through the fire, according to the abominations of the heathen, whom the Lord cast out from before the children of Israel.

4 Innis iddoowwan sagadaa kanneen gaarran irraatti, fiixee gaarranii irrattii fi muka lalisaa hunda jalatti qalma dhiʼeessee, ixaanas aarse.

And he burnt incense upon the high places, and upon the roofs, and under every shady tree.

5 Kanaafuu Waaqayyo Waaqni isaa dabarsee harka mootii Sooriyaatti isa kenne. Warri Sooriyaas isa moʼatanii namoota isaa hedduus boojiʼanii Damaasqootti geessan. Achii immoo inni harka mootii Israaʼelitti dabarfamee ni kenname; mootichis miidhaa guddaa isa irraan ni gaʼe.

And the Lord his God delivered him into the hand of the king of Syria; and he struck him, and took captive of them a great band of prisoners, and carried him to Damascus. Also [God] delivered him into the hands of the king of Israel, who struck him with a great slaughter.

6 Sababii sabni Yihuudaa Waaqayyo Waaqa abbootii isaa dhiiseef Pheqaan ilmi Remaaliyaa guyyaa tokkotti loltoota Yihuudaa kuma dhibba tokkoo fi digdama ni fixe.

And Phakee the son of Romelias king of Israel, killed in Juda in one day a hundred and twenty thousand mighty men; because they had forsaken the Lord God of their fathers.

7 Zikriin loltuun jabaan gosa Efreem sun immoo Maʼaseyaa ilma mootichaa, Azriiqaam ajajaa masaraa mootummaa fi Elqaanaa itti aanaa mootichaa ni ajjeese.

And Zechri, a mighty man of Ephraim, killed Maasias the king's son, and Ezrican the chief of his house, and Elcana the king's deputy.

8 Israaʼeloonni firootuma isaanii irraa niitota, ilmaanii fi intallan kuma dhibba lama ni boojiʼan. Akkasumas boojuu akka malee baayʼee fudhatanii Samaariyaatti ni deebiʼan.

And the children of Israel took captive of their brethren three hundred thousand, women, and sons, and daughters, and they spoiled them of much property, and brought the spoils to Samaria.

9 Garuu raajiin Waaqayyoo kan Oodeed jedhamu tokko achi ture; innis yeroo loltoonni Samaariyaadhaa deebiʼanitti isaan simachuuf ni baʼe. Innis akkana isaaniin jedhe; “Waaqayyo Waaqni abbootii keessanii waan Yihuudaatti aareef dabarsee harka keessanitti isaan kenne. Isin garuu dheekkamsa hamma samiitti ol fagaatuun isaan ni fixxan.

And there was there a prophet of the Lord, his name [was] Oded: and he went out to meet the host that were coming to Samaria, and said to them, Behold, the wrath of the Lord God of your fathers [is] upon Juda, and he has delivered them into your hands, and you have slain them in wrath, and it has reached even to heaven.

10 Ammas dhiirotaa fi dubartoota Yihuudaa fi Yerusaalem garboota keessan gochuu ni yaaddan. Isin mataan keessan iyyuu fuula Waaqayyo Waaqa keessanii duratti cubbuu hin hojjennee ree?

And now you talk of keeping the children of Juda and Jerusalem for servants and handmaidens. Behold, am I not with you to testify for the Lord your God?

11 Mee na dhagaʼaa! Sababii dheekkamsi Waaqayyoo isinitti bobaʼeef namoota biyya keessanii kanneen boojitanii fiddan sana deebisaa.”

And now listen to me, and restore the prisoners of your brethren whom you have taken: for the fierce anger of the Lord [is] upon you.

12 Ergasiis hangafoota namoota Efreem keessaa tokko tokko jechuunis Azaariyaa ilmi Yehohaanaan, Berekiyaan ilmi Meshileemoot, Yehiizqiiyaa ilmi Shaluumii fi Amaasaayi ilmi Hadilaay warra duulaa galaa jiran mormuudhaan

And the chiefs of the sons of Ephraim rose up, Udias the son of Joanas, and Barachias the son of Mosolamoth, and Ezekias the son of Sellem, and Amasias the son of Eldai, against those that came from the war,

13 akkana jedhan; “Isin boojiʼamtoota kanneen as fiduu hin qabdan; yoo kanaa achii nu fuula Waaqayyoo duratti cubbamoota ni taana. Isin amma illee cubbuu fi balleessaa keenya ittuma dabaluu feetuu? Yakki keenya duraanuu baayʼateera; dheekkamsi isaa Israaʼelitti bobaʼeeraatii.”

and said to them, You shall not bring in hither the prisoners to us, for whereas sin against the Lord [is] upon us, you mean to add to our sins, and to our trespass: for our sin [is] great, and the fierce anger of the Lord [is] upon Israel.

14 Kanaafuu loltoonni fuula qondaaltotaatii fi yaaʼii guutuu duratti boojiʼamtootaa fi boojuu gad dhiisan.

So the warriors left the prisoners and the spoils before the princes and all the congregation.

15 Namoonni maqaan isaanii eerames loltoota harka boojiʼamtoota ni fuudhan; waan boojiʼame irraas warra qullaa jiran hundatti wayyaa ni uffisan. Isaanis uffataa fi kophee, waan nyaatamuu fi waan dhugamu illee ni kennaniif; dibatas isaan diban. Warra dadhaban hunda immoo harree irra teessisanii biyya firoonni isaanii jiran Magaalaa Meexxii sanatti gara Yerikootti isaan deebisanii ofii immoo Samaariyaatti ni dachaʼan.

And the men who were called by name rose up, and took hold of the prisoners, and clothed all the naked from the spoils, and gave them garments and shoes, and gave them [food] to eat, and [oil] to anoint themselves [with], and they helped also every one that was weak with asses, and placed them in Jericho, the city of palm-trees, with their brethren; and they returned to Samaria.

16 Yeroo sanatti Aahaaz Mootichi gargaaraa argachuuf gara mootii Asooritti nama ergate.

At that time king Achaz sent to the king of Assyria to help him, and on this occasion,

17 Edoomonni ammas dhufanii Yihuudaatti balaa buusanii boojiʼamtoota fudhatanii deemanii turaniitii;

because the Idumeans had attacked [him], and struck Juda, and taken a number of prisoners.

18 Filisxeemonni immoo magaalaawwan gaarran jalaa fi kanneen gama kibba Yihuudaatti argaman weeraranii Beet Shemeshi, Ayaaloon, Gedeerooti, Sookoo, Tiimnaahi, Gimzoo fi gandoota naannoo isaanitti argaman qabatanii keessa ni qubatan.

Also the Philistines had made an attack on the cities of the plain country, and the cities of the south of Juda, and taken Baethsamys, and [the things in the house of the Lord, and the things in the house of the king, and of the princes: and they gave to the king] Aelon, and Galero, and Socho and her villages, and Thamna and her villages, and Gamzo and her villages: and they lived there.

19 Sababii Aahaaz mootichi Israaʼel saba Yihuudaa cubbuuf kakaasee ofii immoo Waaqayyoof amanamuu dideef Waaqayyo Yihuudaa ni salphise.

For the Lord humbled Juda because of Achaz king of Juda, because he grievously departed from the Lord.

20 Tiiglaat-Philneeser mootichi Asoor gara isaa dhufee ture; taʼus inni qooda isa gargaaru rakkina isatti fide.

And there came against him Thalgaphellasar king of Assyria, and he afflicted him.

21 Aahaaz mana qulqullummaa Waaqayyoo keessaa, masaraa mootii fi mana ilmaan mootiitii waan tokko tokko fuudhee mootii Asooriif kennaa godhee ni dhiʼeesse; taʼus kunis isa hin gargaarre.

And Achaz took the things [that were] in the house of the Lord, and the things in the house of the king, and of the princes, and gave them to the king of Assyria: but he was no help to him,

22 Aahaaz Mootichi yeroo rakkina isaa keessa illee ittuma caalchisee Waaqayyoof amanamuu ni dide.

but only [troubled him] in his affliction: and he departed yet more from the Lord, and king Achaz said,

23 Innis waaqota Damaasqoo kanneen isa moʼataniif aarsaa ni dhiʼeesse; “Waaqonni mootota Sooriyaa sababii isaan gargaaraniif akka isaan ana illee gargaaraniif ani aarsaa nan dhiʼeessaaf” jedhee yaadee tureetii. Isaan garuu kufaatii isaa fi kufaatii Israaʼel hundaa ni fidan.

I will seek after the gods of Damascus that strike me. And he said, Forasmuch as the gods of the king of Syria themselves strengthen them, therefore will I sacrifice to them, and they will help me. But they became a stumbling block to him, and to all Israel.

24 Aahaaz miʼoota mana qulqullummaa Waaqaa walitti qabee fudhatee deeme. Balbalawwan mana qulqullummaa Waaqayyoos cufee golee daandiiwwan Yerusaalem hunda irratti iddoowwan aarsaa ni dhaabe.

And Achaz removed the vessels of the house of the Lord, and cut them in pieces, and shut the doors of the house of the Lord, and made to himself altars in every corner in Jerusalem:

25 Magaalaa Yihuudaa hunda keessattis waaqota biraaf ixaana aarsuuf iddoowwan sagadaa kanneen gaarran irraa ijaaree Waaqayyo Waaqa abbootii isaa dheekkamsaaf ni kakaase.

and in each several city in Juda he made high places to burn incense to strange gods: and they provoked the Lord God of their fathers.

26 Wantoonni bara mootummaa isaa keessa jalqabaa hamma dhumaatti hojjetaman kanneen biraa fi akki inni itti jiraate hundi kitaaba mootota Yihuudaa fi Israaʼel keessatti barreeffamaniiru.

And the rest of his acts, and his deeds, the first and the last, behold, [they are] written in the book of the kings of Juda and Israel.

27 Aahaazis abbootii isaa wajjin boqotee magaalaa Yerusaalem keessatti ni awwaalame; garuu iddoo awwaala mootota Israaʼel keessa hin kaaʼamne. Ilmi isaa Hisqiyaas iddoo isaa buʼee mootii taʼe.

And Achaz slept with his fathers, and was buried in the city of David; for they did not bring him into the sepulchres of the kings of Israel: and Ezekias his son reigned in his stead.
