2 Mootota 18
1 Bara Hoosheeʼaa ilma Eelaa mooticha Israaʼel keessa waggaa sadaffaatti Hisqiyaas ilmi Aahaaz mooticha Yihuudaa mootii taʼee bulchuu jalqabe.
Kwasekusithi ngomnyaka wesithathu kaHosheya indodana kaEla, inkosi yakoIsrayeli, uHezekhiya indodana kaAhazi inkosi yakoJuda waba yinkosi.
2 Inni Yeroo mootii taʼetti nama waggaa digdamii shan ture; innis Yerusaalem keessa taaʼee waggaa digdamii sagal bulche. Maqaan haadha isaa Abiiyaa ture; isheenis intala Zakkaariyaas.
Wayeleminyaka engamatshumi amabili lanhlanu lapho esiba yinkosi; wabusa iminyaka engamatshumi amabili lesificamunwemunye eJerusalema. Lebizo likanina lalinguAbhi indodakazi kaZekhariya.
3 Innis akkuma Daawit abbaan isaa godhe sana fuula Waaqayyoo duratti waan qajeelaa hojjete.
Wasesenza okulungileyo emehlweni eNkosi njengakho konke uDavida uyise akwenzayo.
4 Inni iddoowwan sagadaa kanneen gaarran irraa diige; dhagaawwan waaqeffannaa caccabsee siidaawwan Aasheeraa illee burkuteesse. Sababii Israaʼeloonni hamma bara sanaatti ixaana aarsaafii turaniif inni fakkii bofaa kan Museen naasii irraa hojjete sana illee ni caccabse. Fakkiin bofaa sun Nehushtaan jedhamee waamama ture.
Yena wasusa indawo eziphakemeyo, wabhidliza insika eziyizithombe, wagamula izixuku, wachoboza inyoka yethusi uMozisi ayeyenzile, ngoba kuze kube yilezonsuku abantwana bakoIsrayeli babeyitshisela impepha; wayibiza ngokuthi nguNehushitani.
5 Hisqiyaas Waaqayyo Waaqa Israaʼel amanate. Mootota Yihuudaa hunda keessaa namni akka isaa tokko iyyuu isa duraan yookaan isa duubaan hin turre.
Wathembela eNkosini, uNkulunkulu kaIsrayeli; okwathi emva kwakhe kakubanga khona onjengaye emakhosini wonke akoJuda, loba ayengaphambi kwakhe.
6 Inni jabaatee Waaqayyotti hiiqe malee isa duukaa buʼuu hin dhiisne; seera Waaqayyo Museef kenne sanas ni eege.
Ngoba wanamathela eNkosini, kaphambukanga ekuyilandeleni, kodwa wagcina imilayo yayo iNkosi eyayilaya uMozisi.
7 Waaqayyos isa wajjin ture; inni waan hojjete hunda keessatti ni milkaaʼe. Inni mootii Asooritti fincile malee isa hin tajaajille.
LeNkosi yaba laye; loba ngaphi lapho aphumela khona waphumelela. Wavukela inkosi yeAsiriya, kayisebenzelanga.
8 Inni gamoo eegumsaatii jalqabee hamma magaalaa dallaa jabaa qabuutti, hamma Gaazaattii fi daangaa isheetti Filisxeemota ni moʼate.
Yena watshaya amaFilisti waze wafika eGaza lemingcele yayo, kusukela emphotshongweni wabalindi kuze kube semzini obiyelweyo.
9 Waggaa afuraffaa bara Hisqiyaas mootichaa keessa jechuunis waggaa torbaffaa bara Hoosheeʼaa ilma Eelaa mooticha Israaʼel keessa Shalmaneseer mootichi Asoor Samaariyaatti duulee marsee ishee qabate.
Kwasekusithi ngomnyaka wesine wenkosi uHezekhiya, owawungumnyaka wesikhombisa kaHosheya indodana kaEla, inkosi yakoIsrayeli, uShalimaneseri inkosi yeAsiriya wenyuka wamelana leSamariya, wayivimbezela.
10 Dhuma waggaa sadaffaatti Asooronni ishee fudhatan. Akkasiinis Samaariyaan waggaa jaʼaffaa bara mootummaa Hisqiyaas keessa, waggaa saglaffaa bara Hoosheeʼaa mooticha Israaʼel keessa ni fudhatamte.
Basebeyithumba ekupheleni kweminyaka emithathu. Ngomnyaka wesithupha kaHezekhiya, owawungumnyaka wesificamunwemunye kaHosheya inkosi yakoIsrayeli, iSamariya yathunjwa.
11 Mootiin Asooris Israaʼeloota boojiʼee Asooritti geessee Halaa keessa, Goozaan keessa, Laga Haaboor biraa fi magaalaawwan Midiyaan keessa ni qubachiise.
Inkosi yeAsiriya yathumbela uIsrayeli eAsiriya, yababeka eHala leHabori umfula weGozani, lemizini yamaMede.
12 Wanni kun sababii isaan Waaqayyo Waaqa isaaniitiif ajajamuu didanii kakuu isaa, ajaja Museen garbichi Waaqayyoo isaaniif kenne hunda cabsaniif isaanitti dhufe. Isaan ajaja sana hin dhaggeeffanne yookaan hojii irra hin oolchine.
Ngoba bengalilalelanga ilizwi leNkosi uNkulunkulu wabo, kodwa baseqa isivumelwano sayo, konke uMozisi inceku yeNkosi eyayikulayile; kabalalelanga, kabenzanga.
13 Bara mootummaa Hisqiyaas mootichaa keessa waggaa kudha afuraffaatti, Senaaheriib mootichi Asoor magaalaawwan Yihuudaa kanneen dallaa jabaa qaban hunda lolee ni qabate.
Langomnyaka wetshumi lane wenkosi uHezekhiya, uSenakheribi inkosi yeAsiriya wenyuka wamelana layo yonke imizi yakoJuda ebiyelweyo, wayithumba.
14 Kanaafuu Hisqiyaas mootichi Yihuudaa, “Ani balleessaa hojjedheera. Biyya koo keessaa naa baʼi; ani waan ati na gaafattu kam iyyuu siifin kennaa” jedhee gara Laakkiishitti mooticha Asooritti ergaa ergate. Mootichi Asooris, “Meetii taalaantii dhibba sadii fi warqee taalaantii soddoma naa kenni” jedhee Hisqiyaas mooticha Yihuudaa ni gaafate.
UHezekhiya inkosi yakoJuda wasethumela enkosini yeAsiriya eLakishi esithi: Ngonile; buyela usuke kimi; okubeka phezu kwami ngizakuthwala. Inkosi yeAsiriya yasibeka phezu kukaHezekhiya inkosi yakoJuda amathalenta esiliva angamakhulu amathathu, lamathalenta angamatshumi amathathu egolide.
15 Kanaafuu Hisqiyaas meetii mana qulqullummaa Waaqayyoo keessattii fi kan mankuusaa masaraa mootummaa keessatti argamu hunda guuree kenneef.
UHezekhiya wasemnika sonke isiliva esatholakala endlini kaJehova lenothweni yendlu yenkosi.
16 Yeroo kanatti Hisqiyaas mootichi Yihuudaa warqee balbalaa fi dhaaba balbala mana qulqullummaa Waaqayyootti uffisee ture irraa baasee mootii Asooriif kenne.
Ngalesosikhathi uHezekhiya waquma igolide ezivalweni zethempeli leNkosi, lemigubazini uHezekhiya inkosi yakoJuda ayekunamathisele, walinika inkosi yeAsiriya.
17 Ergasii Mootichi Asoor ajajaa waraanaa isaa ol aanaa, ajajaa hangafaa fi ajajaa waraana isaa loltoota hedduu wajjin Laakkiishii gara Yerusaalemitti Hisqiyaas mootichatti ni erge. Isaanis Yerusaalem dhufanii boʼoo haroo ol aanuu bira karaa lafa qotiisaa namicha wayyaa miicuutti geessu irra dhadhaabatan.
Inkosi yeAsiriya yasithuma uTharithani loRabi-Sarisi loRabi-Shake besuka eLakishi besiya enkosini uHezekhiya belebutho elinzima eJerusalema. Benyuka-ke bafika eJerusalema. Sebenyuke bafika bema emgelweni wechibi eliphezulu, elisemgwaqweni omkhulu wensimu yomwatshi.
18 Isaan mooticha ni waamsifatan; Eliiyaaqiim ilmi Hilqiyaa bulchaan masaraa mootummaa, Shebnaa barreessaanii fi Yooʼaa ilmi Asaaf galmeessaan isaanitti gad baʼan.
Sebebize inkosi, kwaphumela kibo uEliyakhimi indodana kaHilikhiya owayengumphathi wendlu, loShebina umbhali, loJowa indodana kaAsafi umabhalane.
19 Ajajaan waraanaa sunis akkana isaaniin jedhe; “Akkana jedhaa Hisqiyaasitti himaa: “‘Mootiin guddaan, mootichi Asoor akkana jedha: Of amanachuu kee kana maal irratti hundeeffatte?
URabi-Shake wasesithi kibo: Khulumani khathesi kuHezekhiya: Itsho njalo inkosi enkulu, inkosi yeAsiriya ithi: Yisibindi bani lesi, othembela kuso?
20 Ati, “Ani tooftaa fi jabina waraanaa qaba” jetta; garuu dubbii faayidaa hin qabne dubbatta. Ati eenyun abdattee natti fincilta?
Uthi, kodwa yilizwi lendebe nje: Kulecebo lamandla empi. Usuthembe bani ukuthi ungivukele?
21 Kunoo ati Gibxin jechuunis ulee shambaqqoo caccabaa harka nama isatti irkatu kamii iyyuu waraanee madeessu sana abdatteerta! Faraʼoon mootichi Gibxis nama isa abdatu hundaaf akkasuma.
Khangela-ke, wena uthembele odondolweni lomhlanga owephukileyo, oluyiGibhithe, uba umuntu eseyama phezu kwalo, luzangena esandleni sakhe lusihlabe. Unjalo uFaro inkosi yeGibhithe kubo bonke abathembela kuye.
22 Yoo isin, “Nu Waaqayyo Waaqa keenya abdanna” naan jettan, inni isuma Hisqiyaas iddoowwan sagadaa isaatii fi iddoowwan aarsaa isaa diigee Yihuudaa fi Yerusaalemiin, “Isin fuula iddoo aarsaa kan Yerusaalem keessaa kana duratti waaqeffachuu qabdu” jedhe sana mitii?
Kodwa uba lisithi kimi: ENkosini uNkulunkulu wethu siyathemba; angithi yiyo elezindawo zayo eziphakemeyo lamalathi ayo uHezekhiya awasusileyo, wathi kuJuda leJerusalema: Phambi kwalelilathi lizakhonza eJerusalema?
23 “‘Amma kottuutii gooftaa koo mooticha Asoor wajjin dubbadhu; anis yoo ati namoota farda yaabbatan qopheeffachuu dandeesse fardeen kuma lama siifin kenna!
Ngakho-ke, akunike isibambiso enkosini yami, inkosi yeAsiriya, njalo ngizakunika amabhiza azinkulungwane ezimbili, uba wena ulakho ukunika abagadi bawo.
24 Ati yoo gaariiwwanii fi abbootii fardaatiif jettee Gibxin abdatte iyyuu akkamiin qondaaltota gooftaa kootii keessaa ajajaa gad aanaa isaa illee of irraa deebisuu dandeessa?
Pho, uzabuyisela emuva njani ubuso benduna eyodwa yabancinyane nje benceku zenkosi yami; wena-ke uthembele eGibhithe ngezinqola labagadi bamabhiza?
25 Ati waan ani dubbii Waaqayyoo malee iddoo kana lolee barbadeessuuf dhufe seetaa? Waaqayyo mataan isaa akka ani biyya kanatti duulee ishee barbadeessu natti dubbateera.’”
Kambe ngenyukile yini ukumelana lalindawo ngingelaJehova ukuyichitha? UJehova uthe kimi: Yenyuka umelane lalelilizwe, ulichithe.
26 Kana irratti Eliiyaaqiim ilma Hilqiyaa, Shebnaa fi Yooʼaa ajajaa waraanaa sanaan, “Maaloo waan nu dhageenyuuf afaan warra Araamaayikiitiin garboota keetti dubbadhu. Utuma namoonni dallaa irra jiran dhagaʼanii afaan Ibrootaatiin nutti hin dubbatin” jedhan.
UEliyakhimi indodana kaHilikhiya loShebina loJowa basebesithi kuRabi-Shake: Akukhulume lenceku zakho ngesiSiriya, ngoba siyasizwa; ungakhulumi lathi ngesiJuda endlebeni zabantu abasemdulini.
27 Ajajaan waraanaa sun garuu akkana jedhee deebise; “Namni gooftaan koo akka ani waan kana itti himuuf itti na erge gooftaa keessanii fi isin qofaa? Namoota dallaa irra tataaʼan warra akkuma keessan udaan ofii isaanii nyaatanii fincaan ofii isaanii dhuguu qabaniifis mitii?”
Kodwa uRabi-Shake wathi kubo: Inkosi yami ingithumile yini enkosini yakho lakuwe ukukhuluma lamazwi? Kakusebantwini yini abahlezi phezu komduli ukuze badle ubulongwe babo, banathe umchamo wabo kanye lani?
28 Ergasii ajajaan waraanaa sun ol kaʼee afaan Ibrootaatiin akkana jedhe; “Dubbii mooticha guddaa, dubbii mootii Asoor dhagaʼaa!
URabi-Shake wasesima wamemeza ngelizwi elikhulu ngesiJuda, wakhuluma esithi: Zwanini ilizwi lenkosi enkulu, inkosi yeAsiriya.
29 Mootichi akkana jedha: Hisqiyaas isin hin gowwoomsin. Inni harka kootii isin baasuu hin dandaʼu.
Itsho njalo inkosi: UHezekhiya kangalikhohlisi, ngoba kayikuba lakho ukulikhulula esandleni sayo.
30 Hisqiyaas, ‘Waaqayyo dhugumaan nu baasa; magaalaan kunis dabarfamtee harka mooticha Asooritti hin kennamtu’ jechuudhaan akka isin Waaqayyoon amanattaniif isin hin sossobin.
Njalo uHezekhiya angalenzi lithembele eNkosini esithi: INkosi izasikhulula lokusikhulula, lalumuzi kawuyikunikelwa esandleni senkosi yeAsiriya.
31 “Hisqiyaasin hin dhaggeeffatinaa. Mootiin Asoor akkana jedha: Ana wajjin walii galtee nagaa dhaabbadhaatii natti gad baʼaa. Ergasii tokkoon tokkoon keessan muka wayiniitii fi muka harbuu keessan irraa ni nyaattu; boolla bishaan keessanii keessaas ni dhugdu;
Lingamlaleli uHezekhiya, ngoba itsho njalo inkosi yeAsiriya: Yenzani isivumelwano sokuthula lami, liphume lize kimi; dlanini-ke, ngulowo lalowo okwevini lakhe langulowo lalowo okomkhiwa wakhe, linathe, ngulowo lalowo amanzi omthombo wakhe;
32 kunis hamma ani dhufee gara biyya akkuma biyya keessanii jirtuu, gara biyya midhaanii fi daadhii wayinii haaraatti, gara biyya buddeenaa fi iddoo dhaabaa wayiniitti, gara biyya muka ejersaatii fi dammaatti isin geessutti taʼa. Isin jireenya filadhaa malee duʼa hin filatinaa! “Waan inni, ‘Waaqayyo nu baraara’ jedhee isin dogoggorsuuf Hisqiyaasin hin dhagaʼinaa.
ngize ngifike ngilithathe ngilise elizweni elifanana lelizwe lakini, ilizwe lamabele lewayini elitsha, ilizwe lesinkwa lezivini, ilizwe lamafutha emihlwathi loluju, ukuze liphile lingafi. Lingamlaleli uHezekhiya ngoba eliyenga esithi: INkosi izasikhulula.
33 Waaqni saboota kamii iyyuu takkumaa harka mooticha Asoor keessaa biyya ofii baafatee beekaa?
Onkulunkulu bezizwe sebake bawakhulula yini ngulowo lalowo ilizwe lakhe esandleni senkosi yeAsiriya?
34 Waaqonni Hamaatii fi waaqonni Arfaad eessa jiru? Waaqonni Seefarwaayim, waaqonni Heenaatii fi Iwaa eessa jiru? Isaan harka koo keessaa Samaariyaa baasaniiruu?
Bangaphi onkulunkulu beHamathi leArpadi? Bangaphi onkulunkulu beSefavayimi, beHena, leIva? Kambe bayikhulule yini iSamariya esandleni sami?
35 Waaqota biyyoota kanneenii hunda keessaa kamtu harka koo keessaa biyya isaa baasuu dandaʼe? Yoos Waaqayyo akkamiin harka koo keessaa Yerusaalemin baasuu dandaʼa ree?”
Ngobani kubo bonke onkulunkulu balawomazwe abakhulule ilizwe labo esandleni sami, ukuthi iNkosi ikhulule iJerusalema esandleni sami?
36 Namoonni garuu sababii mootichi, “Deebii hin kenninaafii” jedhee ajajeef inuma calʼisan malee deebii tokko iyyuu hin kennine.
Kodwa abantu bathula, kabaze bamphendula lalizwi, ngoba umlayo wenkosi wawuyikuthi: Lingamphenduli.
37 Kana irratti Eliiyaaqiim ilmi Hilqiyaa bulchaan masaraa mootummaa, Shebnaa barreessaanii fi Yooʼaa ilmi Asaaf galmeessaan uffata isaanii tatarsaasanii gara Hisqiyaas dhaqanii waan ajajaan waraanaa sun jedhe itti ni himan.
UEliyakhimi indodana kaHilikhiya owayengumphathi wendlu, loShebina umbhali, loJowa indodana kaAsafi umabhalane, basebesiza kuHezekhiya izigqoko zidatshuliwe, bamtshela amazwi kaRabi-Shake.
