2 Mootota 1
1 Erga Ahaab duʼee booddee Moʼaab Israaʼelitti fincile.
Then Moab rebelled against Israel after the death of Ahab:
2 Ahaaziyaanis qaawwa darbii mana isaa kan Samaariyaa keessaan kufee miidhamee ture. Kanaafuu inni, “Akka ani miidhaa kana irraa fayyuu fi fayyuu baachuu koo beekuuf dhaqaatii Baʼaal Zebuul waaqicha Eqroon sana naaf gaafadhaa” jedhee ergamoota erge.
And Ahaziah fell thorow the lattesse windowe in his vpper chamber which was in Samaria: so he was sicke: then he sent messengers, to whome he saide, Goe, and enquire of Baal-zebub the God of Ekron, if I shall recouer of this my disease.
3 Ergamaan Waaqayyoo garuu Eeliyaas namicha gosa Tishbii sanaan akkana jedhe; “Kaʼiitii gara ergamoota mooticha Samaariyaa sanaatti ol baʼiitii akkana jedhii isaan gaafadhu; ‘Wanni isin Baʼaal Zebuul waaqicha Eqroon sana gorsa gaafachuu dhaqxaniif Israaʼel keessaa Waaqni dhabameetii?’
Then the Angel of the Lord said to Eliiah the Tishbite, Arise, and goe vp to meete the messengers of the King of Samaria, and say vnto them, Is it not because there is no God in Israel, that ye goe to enquire of Baal-zebub the god of Ekron?
4 Kanaafuu Waaqayyo, ‘Ati siree amma irra ciiftu kana irraa hin kaatu. Ati dhugumaan ni duuta!’ jedha.” Kana irratti Eeliyaas kaʼee deeme.
Wherefore thus saith the Lord, Thou shalt not come downe from the bed on which thou art gone vp, but shalt die the death. So Eliiah departed.
5 Mootichis yommuu ergamoonni gara isaatti deebiʼanitti, “Isin maaliif deebitan?” jedhee isaan gaafate.
And the messengers returned vnto him, to whome he said, Why are ye nowe returned?
6 Isaanis akkana jedhanii deebisan; “Namicha tokkotu karaatti nutti dhufee, ‘Gara mooticha isin erge sanaatti deebiʼaatii akkana jedhaanii’ nuun jedhe; ‘Waaqayyo akkana jedha: Wanni ati Baʼaal Zebuul waaqicha Eqroon sana gorsa gaafachuuf namoota ergituuf Israaʼel keessaa Waaqni dhabameetii? Kanaafuu ati siree irra ciiftu kana irraa hin kaatu. Ati dhugumaan ni duuta!’”
And they answered him, There came a man and met vs, and saide vnto vs, Goe, and returne vnto the King which sent you, and say vnto him, Thus saith the Lord, Is it not because there is no God in Israel, that thou sendest to enquire of Baal-zebub the God of Ekron? Therefore thou shalt not come downe from the bed, on which thou art gone vp, but shalt die ye death.
7 Mootichi, “Namichi karaatti isinitti dhufee waan kana isinitti hime sun nama akkamii ti?” jedhee isaan gaafate.
And he saide vnto them, What maner of man was he which came and met you, and tolde you these wordes?
8 Isaanis, “Inni nama uffata rifeensa irraa hojjetame uffatee sabbata gogaa mudhii isaatti hidhatu tokkoo dha” jedhanii deebisaniif. Mootichis, “Inni Eeliyaas namicha Tishbii sanaa dha” jedhe.
And they said vnto him, He was an hearie man, and girded with a girdle of lether about his loynes. Then sayde he, It is Eliiah the Tishbite.
9 Kana irratti mootichi ajajaa waraanaa tokko namoota shantama wajjin Eeliyaasitti erge. Ajajaan sunis fiixee gaara inni irra taaʼaa ture tokkootti Eeliyaasitti ol baʼee, “Yaa nama Waaqaa, mootichi ‘Gad kottu!’ siin jedha” jedheen.
Therefore the King sent vnto him a captaine ouer fiftie with his fiftie men, who went vp vnto him: for beholde, he sate on the toppe of a mountaine, and he saide vnto him, O man of God, the King hath commanded that thou come downe.
10 Eeliyaas immoo ajajaa sanaan, “Yoo ani nama Waaqaa taʼe, ibiddi samii irraa gad buʼee siʼii fi namoota kee shantamman haa fixu!” jedhe. Ergasii ibiddi samii irraa gad buʼee ajajaa sanaa fi namoota isaa hunda fixe.
But Eliiah answered, and saide to the captaine ouer the fiftie, If that I be a man of God, let fire come downe from the heauen, and deuoure thee and thy fiftie. So fire came downe from the heauen and deuoured him and his fiftie.
11 Kana irratti mootichi amma illee ajajaa biraa namoota shantama wajjin Eeliyaasitti erge. Ajajaan sunis, “Yaa nama Waaqaa, mootichi, ‘Dafii gad buʼiitii kottu!’ siin jedha” jedheen.
Againe also he sent vnto him another captaine ouer fiftie, with his fiftie. Who spake, and saide vnto him, O man of God, thus the King commandeth, Come downe quickely.
12 Eeliyaas garuu, “Yoo ani nama Waaqaa taʼe, ibiddi samii irraa gad buʼee siʼii fi namoota kee shantammanuu haa fixu!” jedhee deebiseef. Ibiddi Waaqaas samii irraa gad buʼee isaa fi namoota isaa shantammanuu ni fixe.
But Eliiah answered, and saide vnto them, If I be a man of God, let fire come downe from the heauen, and deuoure thee and thy fiftie. So fire came downe from the heauen, and deuoured him and his fiftie.
13 Kanaafuu mootichi ammas ajajaa sadaffaa namoota shantama wajjin ni erge. Ajajaan sadaffaan kun ol baʼee jilba ofii isaatiin Eeliyaas duratti jilbeenfatee akkana jedhee isa ni kadhate; “Yaa nama Waaqaa, maaloo lubbuun koo fi lubbuun garboota kee shantamman kanneenii gatii hin dhabin!
Yet againe he sent the third captaine ouer fiftie with his fiftie. And the thirde captaine ouer fiftie went vp, and came, and fell on his knees before Eliiah, and besought him, and saide vnto him, O man of God, I pray thee, let my life and the life of these thy fiftie seruants be precious in thy sight.
14 Kunoo, ibiddi samii irraa gad buʼee ajajjuuwwan duraa lamaanii fi namoota isaanii hunda fixeera. Amma garuu lubbuun koo fuula kee duratti gatii haa qabaattu!”
Beholde, there came fire downe from the heauen and deuoured the two former captaines ouer fiftie with their fifties: therefore let my life nowe be precious in thy sight.
15 Ergamaan Waaqayyoos Eeliyaasiin, “Isa wajjin gad buʼi; isa hin sodaatin” jedhe. Kanaafuu Eeliyaas kaʼee isa wajjin gara mootichaatti gad buʼe.
And the Angel of the Lord said vnto Eliiah, Goe downe with him, be not afraide of his presence. So he arose, and went downe with him vnto the King.
16 Innis akkana jedhee mootichatti hime; “Waaqayyo akkana jedha: Wanni ati Baʼaal Zebuul waaqicha Eqroon gorsa gaafachuudhaaf ergamoota ergiteef Israaʼel keessaa Waaqni gorsa gaafatamu dhabameetii? Ati sababii waan kana hojjetteef siree irra ciiftu kana irraa hin kaatu. Ati dhugumaan ni duuta!”
And he saide vnto him, Thus saith the Lord, Because thou hast sent messengers to enquire of Baal-zebub the god of Ekron, (was it not because there was no God in Israel to inquire of his worde?) therefore thou shalt not come downe off the bed, on which thou art gone vp, but shalt die the death.
17 Kanaafuu inni akkuma dubbii Waaqayyoo kan Eeliyaas dubbate sanaatti duʼe. Sababii Ahaaziyaan ilma hin qabneef obboleessi isaa Yehooraam iddoo isaa buʼee mootii taʼe; kunis bara Yehooraam ilmi Yehooshaafaax mootii Yihuudaa ture keessa waggaa lammaffaatti taʼe.
So he dyed according to the worde of the Lord which Eliiah had spoken. And Iehoram began to reigne in his steade, in the seconde yeere of Iehoram the sonne of Iehoshaphat King of Iudah, because he had no sonne.
18 Wantoonni bara mootummaa Ahaaziyaa keessa hojjetaman kan biraa hundii fi wanti inni hojjete kitaaba seenaa mootota Israaʼel keessatti barreeffamaniiru mitii?
Concerning the rest of the actes of Ahaziah, that he did, are they not written in the booke of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel?
