2 Seenaa 32
1 Erga Hisqiyaas waan kana hunda amanamummaadhaan hojjetee booddee Senaaheriib mootichi Asoor dhufee Yihuudaa weerare. Moʼatee isaan qabachuudhaafis magaalaawwan dallaa dhagaa qaban marse.
After these things and this truth, Sennacherib king of Asshur has come, indeed, he comes to Judah, and encamps against the cities of the bulwarks, and says to break into them himself.
2 Hisqiyaasis yommuu akka Senaaheriib dhufee Yerusaalemin loluu barbaade argetti,
And Hezekiah sees that Sennacherib has come, and his face [is] to the battle against Jerusalem,
3 burqaa bishaanii kan magaalaan ala jiru cufuuf qondaaltota isaa fi loltoota isaa wajjin mariʼate; isaanis isa gargaaran.
and he takes counsel with his heads and his mighty ones, to stop the waters of the fountains that [are] at the outside of the city—and they help him,
4 Namoonni akka malee hedduun walitti qabamanii, “Mootonni Asoor maaliif dhufanii bishaan baayʼee argatan?” jedhanii burqaawwanii fi lageen biyya sana keessa yaaʼan hunda ni cufan.
and many people are gathered, and they stop all the fountains and the brook that is rushing into the midst of the land, saying, “Why do the kings of Asshur come, and have found much water?”
5 Ergasii mootichi jabaatee hojjechuudhaan dallaawwan dhagaa kanneen jijjigan hunda dhaabuudhaan gamoowwan eegumsaa achi irratti ijaare. Isaan alatti immoo dallaawwan biraa ijaaree daangaa Magaalaa Daawit cimse. Akkasumas miʼoota lolaa fi gaachanawwan baayʼee hojjete.
And he strengthens himself, and builds the whole of the wall that is broken, and causes [it] to ascend to the towers, and at the outside of the wall [builds] another, and strengthens Millo [in] the City of David, and makes darts in abundance, and shields.
6 Innis ajajjoota loltootaa uummata irratti muudee oobdii karra magaalaa irratti fuula isaa duratti walitti qabee akkana jedhee isaan jajjabeesse;
And he puts heads of war over the people, and gathers them to him, to the broad place of a gate of the city, and speaks to their heart, saying,
7 “Jabaadhaa; cimaa. Isin sababii mooticha Asoorii fi sababii loltoota akka malee baayʼee kanneen isa wajjin jiran sanaatiif jettanii hin sodaatinaa; humni nu wajjin jiru kan isa wajjin jiru caalaatii.
“Be strong and courageous, do not be afraid, nor be cast down from the face of the king of Asshur, and from the face of all the multitude that [is] with him, for with us [are] more than with him.
8 Kan isa wajjin jiru humna foonii qofaa dha; kan nu wajjin jiru garuu Waaqayyo Waaqa keenya isa nu gargaaruu fi isa lola keenya nuuf loluu dha.” Uummanni dubbii Hisqiyaas mooticha Yihuudaatiin jajjabaate.
With him [is] an arm of flesh, but with us [is] our God YHWH to help us and to fight our battles”; and the people are supported by the words of Hezekiah king of Judah.
9 Kana booddees Senaaheriib mootichi Asoor utuma loltoota isaa hunda wajjin Laakkiish marsee jiruu, harka ajajjoota loltoota isaatti akkana jedhee gara Yerusaalemitti Hisqiyaasii fi namoota Yihuudaa kanneen achi jiran hundatti ergaa kana erge:
After this Sennacherib king of Asshur has sent his servants to Jerusalem—and he [is] by Lachish, and all his power with him—against Hezekiah king of Judah and against all Judah who [are] in Jerusalem, saying,
10 “Senaaheriib mootichi Asoor akkana jedha: Yerusaalem ishee marfamte kana keessa turuun keessan of amanachuu kee maal irratti hundeeffatte?
“Thus said Sennacherib king of Asshur: On what are you trusting and abiding in the bulwark in Jerusalem?
11 Hisqiyaas, ‘Waaqayyo Waaqni keenya harka mootii Asoor jalaa nu baasa’ jechuun isaa akka isin beelaa fi dheebuudhaan dhumtaniif mitii?
Is Hezekiah not persuading you to give you up to die by famine and by thirst, saying, Our God YHWH delivers us from the hand of the king of Asshur?
12 Namni Yihuudaa fi Yerusaalemiin, ‘Isin iddoo aarsaa tokko duratti sagaduu fi isuma irratti aarsaa gubamu dhiʼeessuu qabdu’ jedhee iddoowwan sagadaa fi iddoowwan aarsaa Waaqa kanaa balleesse Hisqiyaasuma mataa isaa mitii?
Has Hezekiah himself not turned aside His high places and His altars, and speaks to Judah and to Jerusalem, saying, You bow yourselves before one altar and you make incense on it?
13 “Isin waan anii fi abbootiin koo saboota biyyoota biraa hunda goone hin beektanii? Waaqonni saboota sanaa biyya isaanii harka koo jalaa takkumaa baasuu dandaʼaniiruu?
Do you not know what I have done—I and my fathers—to all peoples of the lands? Were the gods of the nations of the lands at all able to deliver their land out of my hand?
14 Waaqota abbootiin koo balleessan kanneen hunda keessaa isa kamtu saba isaa harka koo keessaa baasuu dandaʼe? Yoos Waaqni keessan akkamitti harka koo keessaa isin baasuu dandaʼa ree?
Who among all the gods of these nations whom my fathers have devoted to destruction [is] he who has been able to deliver his people out of my hand, that your God is able to deliver you out of my hand?
15 Ammas Hisqiyaas akkasitti isin gowwoomsee karaa irraa isin hin jalʼisin. Waaqni saba yookaan mootummaa kamii iyyuu saba isaa harka koo yookaan harka abbootii koo jalaa baasuu hin dandeenyeetii isa hin amaninaa. Waaqni keessan immoo harka kootii isin baasuuf hammam haa yaratu ree!”
And now, do not let Hezekiah lift you up, nor persuade you thus, nor give credence to him, for no god of any nation and kingdom is able to deliver his people from my hand and from the hand of my fathers: also, surely your God does not deliver you from my hand!”
16 Qondaaltonni Senaaheriibis waan kana caalaa hedduu Waaqayyo Waaqaa fi Hisqiyaas garbicha isaa irratti ni dubbatan.
And again his servants have spoken against YHWH God and against His servant Hezekiah,
17 Mootichis akkasuma Waaqayyo Waaqa Israaʼel arrabsuudhaan, waan hamaa illee isatti dubbachuudhaan, “Akkuma waaqonni biyyoota biraa saba isaanii harka koo jalaa baasuu hin dandaʼin sana Waaqni Hisqiyaasis saba isaa harka koo jalaa oolchuu hin dandaʼu” jedhee xalayaa barreesse.
and he has written letters to give reproach to YHWH, God of Israel, and to speak against Him, saying, “As the gods of the nations of the lands that have not delivered their people from my hand, so the God of Hezekiah does not deliver His people from my hand.”
18 Kana irratti isaan naasisuu fi sodaachisuudhaan magaalaa sana qabachuudhaaf saba Yerusaalem kan dallaa dhagaa irra tureetti afaan Ibraayisxiitiin sagalee isaanii ol fudhatanii iyyan.
And they call with a great voice [in] Jewish against the people of Jerusalem who [are] on the wall, to frighten them and to trouble them, that they may capture the city,
19 Isaan akkuma waaʼee waaqota saboota addunyaa biraa kanneen harka namaatiin hojjetaman sanaa dubbatan sana waaʼee Waaqa Yerusaalem dubbatan.
and they speak against the God of Jerusalem as against the gods of the peoples of the land—work of the hands of man.
20 Hisqiyaas Mootichii fi Isaayyaas raajichi ilmi Amoos waaʼee waan kanaatiif kadhannaadhaan gara samiitti ol iyyan.
And Hezekiah the king prays, and Isaiah son of Amoz the prophet, concerning this, and they cry to the heavens,
21 Waaqayyos ergamaa isaa tokko itti erge; ergamaan sunis qubata loltoota mooticha Asoor keessatti loltoota, hooggantootaa fi ajajjoota loltootaa ni balleesse. Kanaafuu mootichi salphinaan gara biyya isaatti deebiʼe. Yeroo inni galma Waaqa isaa seenettis ilmaan isaa achumatti goraadeedhaan isa cicciran.
and YHWH sends a messenger and cuts off every mighty man of valor—both leader and head—in the camp of the king of Asshur, and he turns back with shame of face to his land and enters the house of his god, and those coming out of his bowels have caused him to fall there by the sword.
22 Waaqayyo akkasiin Hisqiyaasii fi namoota Yerusaalem harka Senaaheriib mooticha Asoorii fi harka diinota isaa hundaa jalaa ni baase. Inni karaa hundaan isaan eege.
And YHWH saves Hezekiah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem from the hand of Sennacherib king of Asshur and from the hand of all, and He leads them around;
23 Namoonni baayʼeenis gara Yerusaalemitti Waaqayyoof aarsaa fidan; Hisqiyaas mooticha Yihuudaatiif immoo kennaa gatii guddaa fidan. Innis yeroo sanaa jalqabee fuula saboota hundaa duratti ulfina argate.
and many are bringing in an offering to YHWH, to Jerusalem, and precious things to Hezekiah king of Judah, and he is lifted up before the eyes of all the nations after this.
24 Bara sana keessa Hisqiyaas dhukkubsatee duʼuu gaʼe. Innis Waaqayyoon ni kadhate; Waaqayyos deebii kennee fi mallattoo dinqisiisaa isa argisiise.
In those days Hezekiah has been sick even to death, and he prays to YHWH, and He speaks to him and has appointed a wonder for him;
25 Hisqiyaas garuu garaa isaatti of tuule malee waan gaarii isaaf godhameef deebii malu hin kennine; kanaafuu dheekkamsi Waaqayyoo isatti, Yihuudaa fi Yerusaalemitti dhufe.
and Hezekiah has not returned according to the deed [done] to him, for his heart has been lofty, and there is wrath on him and on Judah and Jerusalem;
26 Kana irratti Hisqiyaas akkuma namoota Yerusaalem sanaa of tuulummaa garaa isaa irraa ni deebiʼe; kanaafuu bara Hisqiyaas keessa dheekkamsi Waaqayyoo isaanitti hin dhufne.
and Hezekiah is humbled for the loftiness of his heart, he and the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and the wrath of YHWH has not come on them in the days of Hezekiah.
27 Hisqiyaas qabeenya akka malee baayʼee fi ulfina guddaa qaba ture; innis meetii isaaf, warqee isaaf, dhagaawwan isaa gati jabeeyyiif, urgooftuuwwan isaaf, gaachanawwan isaa fi miʼoota garaa garaa kanneen gatii guddaa qaban hundaaf mankuusa ni ijaare.
And Hezekiah has very much riches and honor, and he has made treasures for himself of silver, and of gold, and of precious stone, and of spices, and of shields, and of all [kinds] of desirable vessels,
28 Akkasumas midhaaniif gombisaa ijaare; daadhii wayinii haaraa fi zayitiidhaaf qodaa itti kuusan qopheesse; loon gosa hundaaf dallaa, bushaayeef immoo gola ni ijaare.
and storehouses for the increase of grain, and new wine, and oil, and stalls for all kinds of livestock, and herds for stalls;
29 Innis sababii Waaqni badhaadhummaa guddaa isaaf kenneef bushaayee baayʼee, karra loonii hedduus horatee magaalaawwanis ni ijaarrate.
and he has made cities for himself, and possessions of flocks and herds in abundance, for God has given very much substance to him.
30 Namni afaan burqaa Giihoon kan olii cufee bishaan isaa gara lixa Magaalaa Daawititti jalʼise Hisqiyaasuma kana. Hojiin isaa hundis ni milkaaʼeef.
And Hezekiah himself has stopped the upper source of the waters of Gihon, and directs them beneath to the west of the City of David, and Hezekiah prospers in all his work;
31 Garuu yeroo bulchitoonni Baabilon waaʼee hojii dinqii kan biyya sanatti hojjetamee isa gaafachuuf ergamoota erganitti Waaqni isa qoruu fi waan garaa isaa keessa jiru ilaaluudhaaf isa dhiise.
and so with the ambassadors of the heads of Babylon, those sending to him to inquire of the wonder that has been in the land, God has left him to try him, to know all in his heart.
32 Wantoonni bara mootummaa Hisqiyaas keessa hojjetaman kanneen biraa fi gaarummaan isaa mulʼata Isaayyaas raajicha ilma Amoos, kitaaba mootota Yihuudaa fi Israaʼel keessatti barreeffamaniiru.
And the rest of the matters of Hezekiah and his kind acts, behold, they are written in the vision of Isaiah son of Amoz the prophet, on the scroll of the kings of Judah and Israel.
33 Hisqiyaasis abbootii isaa wajjin boqotee lafa awwaala sanyiiwwan Daawititti gaara irratti awwaalame. Yeroo inni duʼettis Yihuudaa fi sabni Yerusaalem hundinuu isa kabajan. Ilmi isaa Minaaseen iddoo isaa buʼee mootii taʼe.
And Hezekiah lies with his fathers, and they bury him in the highest of the graves of the sons of David, and all Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem have done honor to him at his death, and his son Manasseh reigns in his stead.
