2 Mootota 16
1 Bara mootummaa Pheqaa ilma Remaaliyaa keessa waggaa kudha torbaffaatti Aahaaz ilmi Yootaam mooticha Yihuudaa mootii taʼee bulchuu jalqabe.
In the seventeenth year of Pekah son of Remaliah, began Ahaz son of Jotham king of Judah to reign.
2 Aahaaz yeroo mootii taʼetti nama waggaa digdamaa ture; innis Yerusaalem keessa taaʼee waggaa kudha jaʼa ni bulche. Inni akka abbaa isaa akka Daawit fuula Waaqayyoo Waaqa isaa duratti waan qajeelaa hin hojjenne.
Twenty years old, was Ahaz when he began to reign, and, sixteen years, reigned he in Jerusalem. And he did not that which was right in the eyes of Yahweh his God, like David his father;
3 Inni karaa mootota Israaʼel duukaa buʼee gochawwan jibbisiisoo saboota Waaqayyo fuula Israaʼelootaa duraa ariʼee baase sanaa hojjechuudhaan ilma isaa illee aarsaa godhee ibiddaan gube.
but walked in the way of the kings of Israel, —moreover also, me made, his son, pass through the fire, according to the abominable practices of the nations, whom Yahweh dispossessed from before the sons of Israel;
4 Innis iddoowwan sagadaa kanneen gaarran irraatti, fiixee gaarranii irrattii fi muka lalisaa hunda jalatti qalma dhiʼeessee, ixaanas aarse.
and he offered sacrifice and burned incense in the high places, and on the hills, —and under every green tree.
5 Reziin mootichi Sooriyaatii fi Pheqaan ilmi Remaaliyaa mootichi Israaʼel Yerusaalemin loluuf ol baʼanii Aahaazin marsan; garuu isa moʼachuu hin dandeenye.
then, came up Rezin king of Syria, and Pekah son of Remaliah king of Israel, unto Jerusalem, to make war, —and they laid siege against Ahaz, but could not overcome [him].
6 Yeroo sanatti Reziin mootichi Sooriyaa namoota Yihuudaa ariʼee baasuudhaan Eelaatin warra Sooriyaatiif deebise. Ergasiis Edoomonni Eelaatitti godaananii hamma harʼaatti achuma jiraatu.
At that time, Rezin king of Syria recovered Elath, to Syria, and wholly cleared out the Jews from Eloth, —and, the Syrians, entered Elath, and have dwelt there, unto this day.
7 Aahaazis akkana jedhee gara Tiiglaat Phileeser mooticha Asooritti nama erge; “Ani garbichaa fi ilma kee ti. Kottuutii harka mootii Sooriyaatii fi harka mootii Israaʼel kanneen natti duulaniitii na baasi.”
So Ahaz sent messengers unto Tiglath-pileser king of Assyria, saying, Thy servant and thy son, I am, —Come up and save me, out of the hand of the king of Syria, and out of the hand of the king of Israel, who are rising up against me.
8 Kana irratti Aahaaz meetii fi warqee mana qulqullummaa Waaqayyoo keessa jiruu fi kan mankuusaa qabeenya masaraa mootummaa keessatti argamu baasee kennaa godhee mootii Asooritiif ni erge.
And Ahaz took the silver and the gold that was found in the house of Yahweh, and in the treasuries of the house of the king, —and sent them to the king of Assyria, as a bribe.
9 Mootiin Asoor sunis kadhaa isaa tole jedhee Damaasqoo lolee qabate. Jiraattota ishees boojiʼee Qiiritti geesse; Reziinin immoo ni ajjeese.
So the king of Assyria hearkened unto him, and the king of Assyria came up unto Damascus, and seized it, and carried away the people thereof captive to Kir, —and put Rezin, to death.
10 Aahaaz mootichi Tiiglaat Phileeser mooticha Asoor arguuf Damaasqoo dhaqe. Innis iddoo aarsaa tokko Damaasqoo keessatti argee fakkeenya isaatii fi karoora ittiin ijaaran hunda barreessee Uuriyaa lubichatti erge.
So then King Ahaz went to meet Tiglath-pileser king of Assyria, in Damascus, and saw the altar which was in Damascus, —and King Ahaz, sent unto Urijah the priest, a likeness of the altar, and a model thereof, according to all the workmanship thereof;
11 Kanaafuu Uuriyaa lubichi akkuma karoora Aahaaz mootichi Damaasqoodhaa ergeef sana hundaatti utuu Aahaaz mootichi Damaasqoodhaa hin deebiʼin dura iddoo aarsaa sana ijaaree fixe.
and Urijah the priest built an altar, —according to all that King Ahaz sent from Damascus, so, did Urijah the priest make it, by the time King Ahaz came from Damascus.
12 Mootichis yommuu Damaasqoodhaa deebiʼee iddoo aarsaa sana argetti itti dhiʼaatee irratti aarsaa dhiʼeesse.
And, when the king came from Damascus, then the king saw the altar, —so the king drew near unto the altar, and caused offerings to ascend thereupon.
13 Innis aarsaa gubamuu fi kennaa midhaanii dhiʼeessee dhibaayyuu illee dhibaafatee dhiiga aarsaa nagaa kan ofii isaas iddoo aarsaa sana irratti ni facaase.
And he made perfume with his ascending-sacrifice, and with his meal-offering, and poured out his drink-offering, —and dashed the blood of the peace-offerings which he had, upon the altar.
14 Iddoo aarsaa naasii irraa hojjetamee fuula Waaqayyoo dura dhaabatee ture sanas mana qulqullummaa duraa iddoo aarsaa haaraa fi mana qulqullummaa Waaqayyoo gidduudhaa fidee gama kaabaatiin iddoo aarsaa haaraa bira kaaʼe.
And, the altar of bronze which was before Yahweh, he brought away from the forefront of the house, from between the altar, and the house of Yahweh, —and put it at the side of the altar northward.
15 Ergasii Aahaaz mootichi akkana jedhee Uuriyaa lubicha ajaje; “Iddoo aarsaa guddicha irratti aarsaa gubamu kan ganamaatii fi kennaa midhaanii kan galgalaa, aarsaa mootichaa kan gubamuu fi kennaa midhaanii, aarsaa namoota biyyattii hundaa kan gubamu, kennaa isaanii kan midhaaniitii fi dhibaayyuu isaanii dhiʼeessi. Iddoo aarsaa irratti dhiiga aarsaa gubamuutii fi dhiiga qalmaa hunda facaasi. Iddoo aarsaa kan naasii irraa hojjetame garuu anatu ittiin gorsa gaafata.”
And King Ahaz commanded Urijah the priest, saying—Upon the great altar, make thou perfume with the ascending-sacrifice of the morning, and with the meal-offering of the evening, and with the ascending-sacrifice of the king and with his meal-offering, and with the ascending-sacrifice of all the people of the land, and their meal-offering and their drink-offering, and, all the blood of the ascending-offering, and all the blood of the [peace] offering, thereupon, shalt thou dash, —but, the altar of bronze, shall be for me to inquire [into].
16 Uuriyaan lubichis akkuma Aahaaz mootichi ajaje sana godhe.
So Urijah the priest did according to all that King Ahaz commanded.
17 Aahaaz mootichi baattuuwwan asii fi achi sochoofaman sana irraa marsaawwan buqqisee caabiiwwan dhiqannaa illee irraa baase. Gaanii sana baattuuwwan fakkii jibootaa kanneen naasii irraa hojjetaman irraa fuudhee dhagaa afamaa irra kaaʼe.
And King Ahaz cut off the side walls of the stands, and took away from off them the laver, and, the sea, took he down from off the oxen of bronze, which were under it, —and set it on a pavement of stones.
18 Innis mootii Asooriif jedhee oobdii guyyaa Sanbataatiif hojjetame iddoo isaatii fuudhee karra alaa kan mootonni ittiin mana qulqullummaa Waaqayyoo seenanis ni buqqise.
Also, the covered walk for the Sabbath, which they had built in the house, and the outer entrance for the king, he changed in the house of Yahweh, —because of the king of Assyria.
19 Wanni bara mootummaa Aahaaz keessa hojjetame biraatii fi wanni inni hojjete kitaaba seenaa mootota Yihuudaa keessatti barreeffameera mitii?
Now, the rest of the story of Ahaz, what he did, is, it, not written in the book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah?
20 Aahaazis abbootii isaa wajjin boqotee isaanuma biratti Magaalaa Daawit keessatti ni awwaalame. Ilmi isaa Hisqiyaas iddoo isaa buʼee mootii taʼe.
And Ahaz slept with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers, in the city of David, —and, Hezekiah his son, reigned, in his stead.
