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 down through a lattice in his upper chamber that [was] in Samaria, and was sick: and he sent messengers, and said to them, Go, inquire of Baal-zebub the god of Ekron, whether I shall recover from this 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?’
But the angel of the LORD said to Elijah the Tishbite, Arise, go up to meet the messengers of the king of Samaria, and say to them, [Is it] not because [there is] not a God in Israel, [that] ye go to inquire 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.
Now therefore thus saith the LORD, Thou shalt not come down from that bed on which thou art gone up, but shalt surely die. And Elijah departed.
5 Mootichis yommuu ergamoonni gara isaatti deebiʼanitti, “Isin maaliif deebitan?” jedhee isaan gaafate.
And when the messengers turned back to him, he said to them, Why have ye now 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 said to him, There came up a man to meet us, and said to us, Go, turn again to the king that sent you, and say to him, Thus saith the LORD, [Is it] not because [there is] not a God in Israel, [that] thou sendest to inquire of Baal-zebub the god of Ekron? therefore thou shalt not come down from that bed on which thou art gone up, but shalt surely die.
7 Mootichi, “Namichi karaatti isinitti dhufee waan kana isinitti hime sun nama akkamii ti?” jedhee isaan gaafate.
And he said to them, What manner of man [was he] who came up to meet you, and told you these words?
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 answered him, [He was] a hairy man, and girt with a girdle of leather about his loins. And he said, It [is] Elijah 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.
Then the king sent to him a captain of fifty with his fifty. And he went up to him: and behold, he sat on the top of a hill. And he spoke to him, Thou man of God, the king hath said, Come down.
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.
And Elijah answered and said to the captain of fifty, If I [am] a man of God, then let fire come down from heaven, and consume thee and thy fifty. And there came down fire from heaven, and consumed him and his fifty.
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.
Again also he sent to him another captain of fifty with his fifty. And he answered and said to him, O man of God, thus hath the king said, Come down quickly.
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.
And Elijah answered and said to them, If I [am] a man of God, let fire come down from heaven, and consume thee and thy fifty. And the fire of God came down from heaven, and consumed him and his fifty.
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!
And he sent again a captain of the third fifty with his fifty. And the third captain of fifty went up, and came and fell on his knees before Elijah, and besought him, and said to him, O man of God, I pray thee, let my life, and the life of these fifty thy servants, 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!”
Behold, there came fire down from heaven, and burnt up the two captains of the former fifties with their fifties: therefore let my life now 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 to Elijah, Go down with him: be not afraid of him. And he arose, and went down with him to 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 said to him, Thus saith the LORD, Forasmuch as thou hast sent messengers to inquire of Baal-zebub the god of Ekron, [is it] not because [there is] no God in Israel to inquire of his word? therefore thou shalt not come down off that bed on which thou art gone up, but shalt surely die.
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 died according to the word of the LORD which Elijah had spoken. And Jehoram reigned in his stead in the second year of Jehoram the son of Jehoshaphat king of Judah; because he had no son.
18 Wantoonni bara mootummaa Ahaaziyaa keessa hojjetaman kan biraa hundii fi wanti inni hojjete kitaaba seenaa mootota Israaʼel keessatti barreeffamaniiru mitii?
Now the rest of the acts of Ahaziah which he did, [are] they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?
