2 Seenaa 31
1 Yommuu wanni kun hundi xumurametti Israaʼeloonni achi turan gara magaalaawwan Yihuudaa dhaqanii dhagaawwan waaqeffannaa caccabsan; siidaawwan Aasheeraa ni kukkutan. Iddoowwan sagadaa kanneen gaarran irraa fi iddoowwan aarsaa kanneen Yihuudaa, Beniyaam, Efreemii fi Minaasee keessa turan hunda ni balleessan. Israaʼeloonnis erga waan kana hunda balleessanii booddee gara magaalaawwanii fi qabeenya isaaniitti deebiʼan.
And at the completion of all this, all [those of] Israel who are found present have gone out to the cities of Judah, and break the standing-pillars, and cut down the Asherim, and break down the high places and the altars, out of all Judah and Benjamin, and in Ephraim and Manasseh, even to completion, and all the sons of Israel return, each to his possession, to their cities.
2 Hisqiyaasis tokkoo tokkoo isaanii akka isaan akkuma hojii lubummaa isaaniitti yookaan akkuma hojii Lewwummaa isaaniitti aarsaa gubamuu fi aarsaa nagaa dhiʼeessaniif, akka isaan karra iddoo Waaqayyo jiraatuu duratti tajaajilaniif, akka isaan galata galchanii fi akka isaan faarfannaa galataa faarfataniif lubootaa fi Lewwota garee gareedhaan ramade.
And Hezekiah appoints the divisions of the priests and of the Levites, by their divisions, each according to his service, of the priests and of the Levites, for burnt-offering and for peace-offerings, to minister and to give thanks, and to give praise in the gates of the camps of YHWH.
3 Mootichis akkuma Seera Waaqayyoo keessatti barreeffame sanatti, aarsaa gubamu kan ganamaa fi galgalaa akkasumas aarsaa gubamu kan Sanbatootaa, Ayyaana Baatiiwwan Haaraa fi guyyaa ayyaana murteeffameetiif qabeenya ofii isaa irraa ni kenne.
And a portion of the king, from his substance, [is] for burnt-offerings, for burnt-offerings of the morning and of the evening, and the burnt-offerings of Sabbaths, and of new moons, and of appointed times, as it is written in the Law of YHWH.
4 Innis akka luboonnii fi Lewwonni Seera Waaqayyootiif of kennuu dandaʼaniif namoota Yerusaalem keessa jiraatan akka isaan qooda jaraaf malu kennaniif ni ajaje.
And he commands to the people, to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, to give the portion of the priests and of the Levites, so that they are strengthened in the Law of YHWH;
5 Akkuma ajajni sun baʼeenis Israaʼeloonni mataa midhaan isaanii kan jalqabaa irraa, daadhii wayinii haaraa irraa, zayitii fi damma irraa akkasumas waan lafa qotiisaa irraa argamu hunda irraa arjummaadhaan kennan. Waan hunda irraa harka kudhan keessaa harka tokko guddisanii ni fidan.
and at the spreading forth of the thing, the sons of Israel have multiplied the first-fruit of grain, new wine, and oil, and honey, and of all the increase of the field, and they have brought in the tithe of the whole in abundance.
6 Namoonni Israaʼelii fi Yihuudaa warri magaalaawwan Yihuudaa keessa jiraatanis loonii fi bushaayee isaanii irraa harka kudhan keessaa harka tokko, akkasumas waan Waaqayyo Waaqa isaaniitiif qulqulleeffame irraa harka kudhan keessaa harka tokko ni fidan; ni tuulanis.
And the sons of Israel and Judah, those dwelling in cities of Judah, have also brought in a tithe of herd and flock, and a tithe of the holy things that are sanctified to their God YHWH, and they set [them in] heaps of heaps.
7 Isaanis hojii kana jiʼa sadaffaatti jalqabanii jiʼa torbaffaatti fixan.
In the third month they have begun to lay the foundation of the heaps, and in the seventh month they have finished.
8 Hisqiyaasii fi qondaaltonni isaa yommuu dhufanii tuullaawwan sana arganitti Waaqayyoon ni galateeffatan; saba isaa Israaʼelinis ni eebbisan.
And Hezekiah and the heads come in and see the heaps, and bless YHWH and His people Israel,
9 Hisqiyaasis waaʼee tuullaa sanaa lubootaa fi Lewwota gaafate;
and Hezekiah inquires at the priests and the Levites concerning the heaps,
10 maatii Zaadoq keessaa Azaariyaa lubichi hangafni akkana jedhee deebise; “Erga namoonni kennaa isaanii gara mana qulqullummaa Waaqayyootti fidduu jalqabanii as nu nyaata gaʼaa fi irraa hafaa arganneerra; sababii Waaqayyo saba isaa eebbiseef hambaan akka malee guddaan kun hafeera.”
and Azariah the head priest, of the house of Zadok, speaks to him and says, “From the beginning of the bringing of the raised-offering to the house of YHWH, [there is enough] to eat, and to be satisfied, and to leave abundantly, for YHWH has blessed His people, and that left [is] this store.”
11 Hisqiyaasis akka isaan mana qulqullummaa Waaqayyoo keessatti mankuusaalee qopheessan ajaje; isaanis ni qopheessan.
And Hezekiah commands to prepare chambers in the house of YHWH, and they prepare,
12 Isaanis ergasii buusii, kennaa harka kudhan keessaa harka tokkoo fi kennaawwan qulqulleeffaman amanamummaadhaan fidan. Wantoota kanneen irrattis Konaneyaan Lewwichi itti gaafatamaa ture; obboleessi isaa Shimeʼiin immoo sadarkaadhaan itti aanaa isaa ture.
and they bring in the raised-offering, and the tithe, and the holy things faithfully; and over them is a leader, Conaniah the Levite, and his brother Shimei [is] second;
13 Yehiiʼeel, Azaziyaa, Nahaati, Asaaheel, Yeriimooti, Yoozaabaad, Eliiʼeel, Yismakiyaa, Mahatii fi Benaayaa, Konaneyaa fi obboleessa isaa Shimeʼii jalatti toʼattoota taʼanii Hisqiyaas mootichaa fi Azaariyaa itti gaafatamaa mana qulqullummaa Waaqaatiin muudaman.
and Jehiel, and Azaziah, and Nahath, and Asahel, and Jerimoth, and Jozabad, and Eliel, and Ismachiah, and Mahath, and Benaiah, [are] inspectors under the hand of Conaniah and his brother Shimei, by the appointment of Hezekiah the king, and Azariah leader of the house of God.
14 Qooraahi ilmi Yimnaa Lewwichi, eegduun Karra Baʼaa sun kennaa fedhiidhaan Waaqaaf kenname irratti, akkasumas buusii Waaqayyoof godhamee fi kennaawwan qulqulleeffaman qooduu irratti itti gaafatamummaa qaba ture.
And Kore son of Imnah the Levite, the gatekeeper at the east, [is] over the willing-offerings of God, to give the raised-offering of YHWH, and the most holy things.
15 Eeden, Miiniyaamiin, Yeeshuuʼaan, Shemaaʼiyaan, Amariyaa fi Shekaaniyaan magaalaawwan lubootaa keessatti luboota michoota isaaniitiif guddaa fi xinnaa akkuma tokkotti garee garee isaaniitti isaaniif qooduudhaan amanamummaadhaan isa gargaaran.
And by his hand [are] Eden, and Miniamin, and Jeshua, and Shemaiah, Amariah, and Shechaniah, in cities of the priests, faithfully to give to their brothers in divisions, as the great so the small,
16 Kana malees dhiirota umuriin isaanii waggaa sadii fi sanaa ol taʼe kanneen maqaan isaanii galmee hidda dhalootaa keessa jiru warra akkuma itti gaafatamummaa isaanii fi ramaddii isaaniitti qooda hojii isaanii kan guyyaa guyyaa hojjetamu hojjechuuf mana qulqullummaa Waaqayyoo seenuu dandaʼan hundaaf akkasuma ni qoodan.
apart from their genealogy, to males from a son of three years and upward, to everyone who has gone into the house of YHWH, by the matter of a day in its day, for their service in their charges, according to their divisions;
17 Luboota maatii isaaniitiin galmee hidda dhalootaa keessatti galmeeffamanii fi Lewwota umuriin isaanii waggaa digdamaa fi sanaa ol taʼeefis akkuma itti gaafatamummaa fi qooda hojii isaaniitti ni ramadaniif.
and the genealogy of the priests by the house of their fathers, and of the Levites, from a son of twenty years and upward, in their charges, in their divisions;
18 Luboonni kunneen ijoollee isaanii xixinnoo, niitota isaanii, ilmaan isaaniitii fi intallan isaanii kanneen waldaa guutuu keessa jiran hunda wajjin ni galmeeffaman; isaan of qulqulleessuudhaan amanamoo turaniitii.
and to the genealogy among all their infants, their wives, and their sons, and their daughters to all the congregation, for in their faithfulness they sanctify themselves in holiness.
19 Luboota sanyiiwwan Aroon kanneen lafa qotiisaa naannoo magaalaawwan isaanii yookaan magaalaawwan biraa keessa jiraataniif, dhiirota garee isaanii kanneen galmee hidda dhaloota Lewwotaa keessatti galmeeffaman hundaaf akka qoodaniif namoonni filatamanii turan.
And for sons of Aaron, the priests, in the fields of the outskirt of their cities, in each and every city, [are] men who have been defined by name, to give portions to every male among the priests, and to everyone who reckoned himself by genealogy among the Levites.
20 Hisqiyaas waan kana guutummaa Yihuudaa keessatti ni hojjete; innis waan fuula Waaqayyo Waaqa isaa duratti gaarii, qajeelaa fi amanamaa taʼe ni hojjete.
And Hezekiah does thus in all Judah, and does that which is good, and that which is right, and that which is true, before his God YHWH;
21 Innis mana qulqullummaa Waaqaa keessa hojjechuunis taʼu, seeraa fi ajajawwaniif ajajamuudhaan waan hojjete hunda keessatti Waaqa isaa barbaaduudhaaf garaa isaa guutuudhaan ni hojjete; kanaafuu inni ni milkaaʼe.
and in every work that he has begun for the service of the house of God, and for the Law, and for the command, to seek for his God with all his heart, he has worked and prospered.
