2 Mootota 10
1 Yeroo sanatti Ahaab ilmaan torbaatama Samaariyaa keessaa qaba ture. Kanaafuu Yehuun xalayoota barreessee qondaaltota Yizriʼeelitti, maanguddootattii fi guddiftoota ilmaan Ahaabitti gara Samaariyaatti erge. Inni akkana jedhe;
And Ahab had seventy sons in Samaria. And Jehu wrote letters, and sent to Samaria, to the rulers of Jezreel, to the elders, and to them that brought up Ahab’s children, saying,
2 “Akkuma xalayaan kun isin gaʼeen, waan ilmaan gooftaa keessanii isin bira jiranii fi waan isinis gaariiwwanii fi fardeen, magaalaa jabeeffamee ijaaramee fi miʼa lolaa qabdaniif,
Now as soon as this letter cometh to you, seeing your master’s sons are with you, and there are with you chariots and horses, a fortified city also, and armour;
3 ilmaan gooftaa keessanii keessaa kan warra kaan caaluu fi kan ni mala jettanii yaaddan filadhaatii teessoo abbaa isaa irra teessisaa. Ergasiis mana abbaa keessaniitiif lolaa.”
Choose the best and most fit of your master’s sons, and set him on his father’s throne, and fight for your master’s house.
4 Isaan garuu akka malee sodaatanii, “Yoo mootonni lama isa hin dandaʼin nu akkamiin isa dandeenya?” waliin jedhan.
But they were exceedingly afraid, and said, Behold, two kings stood not before him: how then shall we stand?
5 Kanaafuu bulchaan masaraa mootummaatii fi shuumiin magaalattii, maanguddoonnii fi guddiftoonni, “Nu garboota kee ti; waan ati jettu hunda ni hojjenna. Nu nama tokko illee mootii goonee hin filannu; ati mataan kee waanuma jaallatte godhi” jedhanii ergaa kana Yehuutti ergan.
And he that was over the house, and he that was over the city, the elders also, and those who brought up the children, sent to Jehu, saying, We are thy servants, and will do all that thou shalt bid us; we will not make any king: do thou that which is good in thy eyes.
6 Yehuun immoo, “Isin yoo garee koo taatanii fi yoo naa ajajamtan, mataa ilmaan gooftaa keessanii kukkutaatii bori yeroo kanatti Yizriʼeelitti naa fidaa” jedhee xalayaa lammaffaa barreesse. Yeroo kanatti ilmaan mootii torbaatamanuu namoota magaalaa sanaa bebeekamoo kanneen isaan guddisan bira turan.
Then he wrote a letter the second time to them, saying, If ye are mine, and if ye will hearken to my voice, take ye the heads of the men your master’s sons, and come to me to Jezreel by to morrow this time. Now the king’s sons, being seventy persons, were with the great men of the city, who brought them up.
7 Yommuu xalayaan sun isaan gaʼetti namoonni kunneen ilmaan mootii torbaatamman sana hundumaa ni gogorraʼan. Mataa isaaniis guubootti naqanii gara Yizriʼeelitti Yehuudhaaf ni ergan.
And it came to pass, when the letter came to them, that they took the king’s sons, and slew seventy persons, and put their heads in baskets, and sent them to him to Jezreel.
8 Ergamtichi yommuu deebiʼetti, “Isaan mataa ilmaan mootii fidaniiru” jedhee Yehuutti hime. Yehuun immoo, “Mee balbala ittiin magaalattii seenan duratti iddoo lamatti tuulaatii hamma lafti bariitutti tursaa” jedhee ajaje.
And there came a messenger, and told him, saying, They have brought the heads of the king’s sons. And he said, Lay ye them in two heaps at the entrance of the gate until the morning.
9 Yehuun guyyaa itti aanu ganamaan kaʼee gad baʼe. Fuula namoota hundaa dura dhaabatees akkana jedhe; “Isin yakka hin qabdan. Namni gooftaa kootti malatee isa ajjeese anuma; garuu warra kana hunda eenyutu fixe?
And it came to pass in the morning, that he went out, and stood, and said to all the people, Ye are righteous: behold, I conspired against my master, and slew him: but who slew all these?
10 Kanaafuu akka dubbiin Waaqayyo mana Ahaab irratti dubbate tokko iyyuu lafa hin buune beekaa. Waaqayyo waan karaa garbicha isaa Eeliyaasiin dubbate sana guuteera.”
Know now that there shall fall to the earth nothing of the word of the LORD, which the LORD spoke concerning the house of Ahab: for the LORD hath done that which he spoke by his servant Elijah.
11 Yehuunis akkasiin nama mana Ahaab keessaa Yizriʼeel keessatti hafe kam iyyuu, namoota isaa gurguddaa, michoota isaa kanneen itti dhiʼaatanii fi luboota isaa, utuu nama tokko illee hin hambisin hunda isaanii fixe.
So Jehu slew all that remained of the house of Ahab in Jezreel, and all his great men, and his kinsmen, and his priests, until he left him none remaining.
12 Yehuun ergasii kaʼee Samaariyaa dhaqe. Innis yommuu Beet Eekad gaʼetti,
And he arose and departed, and came to Samaria. And as he was at the shearing house in the way,
13 firoota Ahaaziyaa mootii Yihuudaa keessaa namoota tokko tokko argee, “Isin eenyu?” jedhee gaafate. Isaanis, “Nu firoota Ahaaziyaa; nu maatii mootichaatii fi ilmaan haadha mootichaa dubbisuu dhufne” jedhanii deebisan.
Jehu met with the brethren of Ahaziah king of Judah, and said, Who are ye? And they answered, We are the brethren of Ahaziah; and we go down to greet the children of the king and the children of the queen.
14 Innis, “Utuma lubbuudhaan jiranuu isaan qabaa!” jedhee ajaje. Kanaafuu utuma isaan lubbuun jiranuu qabanii boolla bishaanii Beet Eekad biratti afurtamii lamaan isaanii gogorraʼan. Inni isaan keessaa nama tokko illee hin hambifne.
And he said, Take them alive. And they took them alive, and slew them at the pit of the shearing house, even two and forty men; neither left he any of them.
15 Erga achii deemee immoo Yehoonaadaab ilma Rekaab utuu inni gara isaa dhufuutti jiruu arge. Yehuunis isa dubbisee, “Akkuma ani gara kee jiru ati gara koo jirta moo?” jedhee isa gaafate. Yehoonaadaabis, “Ani gara kee jira” jedhee deebise. Yehuunis, “Yoo akkas taʼe harka kee natti kenni” jedheen. Innis harka isaa itti kenne. Yehuunis isa gargaaree gaariitti ol isa baase.
And when he had departed from there, he came upon Jehonadab the son of Rechab coming to meet him: and he greeted him, and said to him, Is thy heart right, as my heart is with thy heart? And Jehonadab answered, It is. If it is, give me thy hand. And he gave him his hand; and he took him up to him into the chariot.
16 Yehuun, “Na wajjin kottuutii hinaaffaa ani Waaqayyoof qabu ilaali” jedheen. Ergasiis gaarii isaatiin isa fudhatee deeme.
And he said, Come with me, and see my zeal for the LORD. So they made him ride in his chariot.
17 Yehuun yommuu Samaariyaa gaʼetti maatii Ahaab keessaa kanneen achitti hafan hunda fixe; innis akkuma dubbii Waaqayyo Eeliyaasitti dubbate sanaatti isaan balleesse.
And when he came to Samaria, he slew all that remained to Ahab in Samaria, till he had destroyed him, according to the saying of the LORD, which he spoke to Elijah.
18 Ergasii Yehuun saba hunda walitti waamee akkana jedheen; “Ahaab xinnuma Baʼaalin tajaajile. Yehuun garuu guddisee isa tajaajila.
And Jehu gathered all the people together, and said to them, Ahab served Baal a little; but Jehu shall serve him much.
19 Kanaafuu amma raajota Baʼaal hunda, tajaajiltoota isaa hundaa fi luboota isaa hunda walitti waamaa. Waan ani qalma guddaa isaa Baʼaaliif dhiʼeessuuf tokkoon isaanii iyyuu hin hafin. Namni hafu kam iyyuu siʼachi lubbuudhaan hin jiraatu.” Yehuun garuu tajaajiltoota Baʼaal barbadeesuudhaaf sobee akkas jedhe.
Now therefore call to me all the prophets of Baal, all his servants, and all his priests; let none be missing: for I have a great sacrifice to do to Baal; whoever shall be missing, he shall not live. But Jehu did it deceitfully, to the intent that he might destroy the worshippers of Baal.
20 Yehuun, “Ulfina Baʼaaliif jedhaatii yaaʼii waamaa” jedhe. Kanaafuu isaan ni labsan.
And Jehu said, Proclaim a solemn assembly for Baal. And they proclaimed it.
21 Kana irratti inni Israaʼel guutuu keessa ergaa ergee akkasiin tajaajiltoonni Baʼaal hundinuu ni dhufan; tokkoon isaanii iyyuu hin hafne. Isaanis mana waaqeffannaa Baʼaalitti ol galan; manni sunis gama tokkoo hamma gama kaaniitti guutame.
And Jehu sent through all Israel: and all the worshippers of Baal came, so that there was not a man left that came not. And they came into the house of Baal; and the house of Baal was full from one end to another.
22 Yehuunis namicha uffata eeguun, “Tajaajiltoota Baʼaal hundaaf uffata fidi” jedhe. Kanaafuu namichi sun wayyaa fideef.
And he said to him that was over the vestry, Bring forth vestments for all the worshippers of Baal. And he brought them forth vestments.
23 Yehuu fi Yehoonaadaab ilmi Rekaab sun mana waaqeffannaa Baʼaal ol seenan. Yehuunis tajaajiltoota Baʼaaliin, “Mee asii fi achi ilaalaatii akka tajaajiltoota Baʼaal malee tajaajiltoonni Waaqayyoo tokko iyyuu isin wajjin as hin jirre hubadhaa” jedhe.
And Jehu went, and Jehonadab the son of Rechab, into the house of Baal, and said to the worshippers of Baal, Search, and see that there are here with you none of the servants of the LORD, but the worshippers of Baal only.
24 Kanaafuu isaan qalmaa fi aarsaa gubamu dhiʼeessuuf ol galan. Yehuun yeroo sanatti nama saddeettama ala dhaabee, “Namni warra ani harka keessanitti kennu kanneen keessaa akka tokko iyyuu miliqu godhu kam iyyuu qooda lubbuu namicha sanaa lubbuu isaa dhaba” jedhee akeekkachiisee ture.
And when they went in to offer sacrifices and burnt offerings, Jehu appointed eighty men without, and said, If any of the men whom I have brought into your hands escape, he that letteth him go, his life shall be for the life of him.
25 Yehuun akkuma aarsaa gubamu sana dhiʼeessee raawwateen, “Ol seenaatii isaan fixaa; akka namni tokko iyyuu miliqu hin godhinaa” jedhee eegdotaa fi ajajjoota sana ajaje. Kanaafuu isaan goraadeedhaan warra sana cicciran. Eegdotaa fi ajajjoonni sun reeffa isaanii alatti gad dadarbatanii kutaa mana waaqeffannaa Baʼaal kan gara keessaatti ol galan.
And it came to pass, as soon as he had finished offering the burnt offering, that Jehu said to the guard and to the captains, Go in, and slay them; let none come forth. And they smote them with the edge of the sword; and the guard and the captains cast them out, and went to the city of the house of Baal.
26 Isaanis mana Baʼaal keessaa fakkiiwwan gad baasanii guban.
And they brought forth the images out of the house of Baal, and burned them.
27 Isaan fakkii Baʼaal caccabsanii mana Baʼaalis diigan. Namoonnis hamma guyyaa harʼaatti lafa itti bobbaa baʼan godhatanii itti fayyadamu.
And they broke down the image of Baal, and broke down the house of Baal, and made it a place of refuse to this day.
28 Akkasiin Yehuun Israaʼel keessaa waaqeffannaa Baʼaal balleesse.
Thus Jehu destroyed Baal out of Israel.
29 Taʼus inni iyyuu cubbuu Yerobiʼaam ilma Nebaat kan inni akka sabni Israaʼel hojjetu godhe sana irraa hin deebine; cubbuun kunis fakkii jabbii warqee irraa hojjetamee Beetʼeelii fi Daanitti waaqeffachuu isaanii ti.
Yet from the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, who made Israel to sin, Jehu departed not from after them, that is, the golden calves that were in Bethel, and that were in Dan.
30 Waaqayyos Yehuudhaan akkana jedhe; “Sababii ati waan fuula koo duratti qajeelaa taʼe fiixaan baasuu keessatti waan gaarii hojjettee fi waan ani mana Ahaab irratti hojjechuuf garaadhaa qabu hunda hojjetteef sanyiiwwan kee hamma dhaloota afuraffaatti teessoo Israaʼel irra ni taaʼu.”
And the LORD said to Jehu, Because thou hast done well in executing that which is right in my eyes, and hast done to the house of Ahab according to all that was in my heart, thy children of the fourth generation shall sit on the throne of Israel.
31 Taʼus Yehuun seera Waaqayyo Waaqa Israaʼel garaa guutuudhaan eeguuf of eeggannoo hin goone. Inni cubbuu Yerobiʼaam kan inni akka sabni Israaʼel hojjetu godhe sana irraa hin deebine.
But Jehu took no heed to walk in the law of the LORD God of Israel with all his heart: for he departed not from the sins of Jeroboam, who made Israel to sin.
32 Bara sana keessa Waaqayyo lafa Israaʼel irraa kukkutee xinneessuu jalqabe. Hazaaʼeelis guutummaa bulchiinsa isaanii keessatti Israaʼeloota moʼate;
In those days the LORD began to cut off parts of Israel: and Hazael smote them in all the land of Israel;
33 kunis gama baʼa Yordaanosiin biyya Giliʼaad hunda jechuunis biyya Gaad, biyya Ruubeenii fi biyya Minaasee kan Aroʼeer laga Arnoon biratti argamtu sanaa jalqabee Giliʼaadii hamma Baashaaniitti jiruu dha.
From Jordan eastward, all the land of Gilead, the Gadites, and the Reubenites, and the Manassites, from Aroer, which is by the river Arnon, even Gilead and Bashan.
34 Wantoonni bara mootummaa Yehuu keessa hojjetaman biraa, wanni inni hojjete hundii fi jabinni isaa hundi kitaaba seenaa mootota Israaʼel keessatti barreeffamaniiru mitii?
Now the rest of the acts of Jehu, and all that he did, and all his might, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?
35 Yehuun abbootii isaa wajjin boqotee Samaariyaa keessatti ni awwaalame. Ilmi isaa Yehooʼaahaaz iddoo isaa buʼee mootii taʼe.
And Jehu slept with his fathers: and they buried him in Samaria. And Jehoahaz his son reigned in his stead.
36 Yehuun Samaariyaa keessa taaʼee waggaa digdamii saddeet Israaʼelin bulche.
And the time that Jehu reigned over Israel in Samaria was twenty and eight years.
