2 Mootota 22

1 Yosiyaas yeroo mootii taʼetti nama waggaa saddeetii ture; Yerusaalem keessa taaʼees waggaa soddomii tokko bulche. Maqaan haadha isaa Yediidaa dha; isheenis intala Adaayaa nama biyya Boozqaatii ti.

Iosiah was eight yeere olde when he beganne to reigne, and hee reigned one and thirtie yeere in Ierusalem. His mothers name also was Iedidah the daughter of Adaiah of Bozcath.

2 Inni fuula Waaqayyoo duratti waan qajeelaa ni hojjete; utuu mirgatti yookaan bitaatti hin gorinis karaa abbaa isaa Daawit irra deeme.

And hee did vprightly in the sight of the Lord, and walked in all the wayes of Dauid his father, and bowed neither to the right hand, nor to the left.

3 Yosiyaas mootichi bara mootummaa isaa keessa waggaa kudha saddeettaffaatti akkana jedhee Shaafaan ilma Azaliyaa ilma Meshulaam barreessaa sana gara mana qulqullummaa Waaqayyootti erge:

And in the eighteenth yeere of King Iosiah, the King sent Shaphan the sonne of Azaliah the sonne of Meshullam the chanceller to ye house of the Lord, saying,

4 “Gara Hilqiyaa lubicha ol aanaatti ol baʼiitii akka inni maallaqa gara mana qulqullummaa Waaqayyootti fidame kan warri balbala eegan namoota irraa walitti qaban sana lakkaaʼu godhi.

Goe vp to Hilkiah the high Priest, that hee may summe the siluer which is brought into the house of the Lord, which the keepers of the doore haue gathered of the people.

5 Maallaqni kunis namoota akka hojii mana qulqullummaa toʼataniif muudamanitti imaanaa haa kennamu. Namoonni kunneen immoo warra mana qulqullummaa Waaqayyoo haaromsaniif jechuunis,

And let them deliuer it into the hande of them that doe the worke, and haue the ouersight of the house of the Lord: let them giue it to them that worke in the house of the Lord, to repaire the decayed places of the house:

6 warra muka soofaniif, warra mana ijaaranii fi warra dhagaa soofaniif haa kaffalan. Akkasumas mana qulqullummaa haaromsuuf mukaa fi dhagaa soofame ittiin haa bitan.

To wit, vnto the artificers and carpenters and masons, and to bye timber, and hewed stone to repaire the house.

7 Isaan garuu sababii amanamummaadhaan hojjetaniif, maallaqa imaanaa isaanitti kenname sana toʼachuun hin barbaachisu.”

Howebeit, let no rekoning bee made with them of the money, that is deliuered into their hand: for they deale faithfully.

8 Hilqiyaa lubichi ol aanaan sunis, Shaafaan barreessaa sanaan, “Ani mana qulqullummaa Waaqayyoo keessatti Kitaaba Seeraa argeen jira” jedhe. Kitaabichas Shaafaanitti kenne; Shaafaan immoo kitaaba sana ni dubbise.

And Hilkiah the high Priest sayde vnto Shaphan the chanceller, I haue found the booke of the Lawe in the house of the Lord: and Hilkiah gaue the booke to Shaphan, and hee reade it.

9 Ergasiis Shaafaan gara mootichaa dhaqee, “Qondaaltonni kee maallaqa mana qulqullummaa Waaqayyoo keessa ture baasanii hojjettootaa fi namoota hojii mana qulqullummaa toʼatanitti imaanaa kennaniiru” jedhee hime.

So Shaphan the chanceller came to ye King, and brought him word againe, and saide, Thy seruants haue gathered the money, that was found in the house, and haue deliuered it vnto the hands of them that doe the worke, and haue the ouersight of the house of the Lord.

10 Shaafaan barreessaan sun, “Hilqiyaa lubichi kitaaba tokko natti kenneera” jedhee mootichatti hime. Shaafaanis fuula mootichaa duratti kitaaba sana dubbise.

Also Shaphan the chanceller shewed the King saying, Hilkiah the Priest hath deliuered me a booke. And Shaphan read it before the King.

11 Mootichis dubbii Kitaaba Seeraa sana dhageenyaan uffata isaa ni tarsaase.

And when the King had heard the wordes of the booke of the Law, he rent his clothes.

12 Innis ajaja kana Hilqiyaa lubichatti, Ahiiqaam ilma Shaafaanitti, Akboor ilma Miikaayaatti, Shaafaan barreessichaa fi Asaayaa tajaajilaa mootichaatti ni kenne;

Therefore the King commanded Hilkiah the Priest, and Ahikam the sonne of Shaphan, and Achbor the sonne of Michaiah, and Shaphan the chanceller, and Asahiah the Kings seruant, saying,

13 “Dhaqaatii waaʼee waan kitaaba argame kana keessatti barreeffamee anaaf, sabaa fi Yihuudaa hundaaf Waaqayyoon gaafadhaa. Sababii warri nuun duraa dubbii kitaabaa kanaatiif hin ajajaminiif dheekkamsi Waaqayyoo guddaan nutti bobaʼeera; isaan akka waan waaʼee keenya barreeffame sana hundaatti hin jiraanneetii.”

Go ye and inquire of the Lord for me, and for the people, and for all Iudah concerning the wordes of this booke that is founde: for great is the wrath of the Lord that is kindled against vs, because our fathers haue not obeyed the wordes of this booke, to doe according vnto all that which is written therein for vs.

14 Hilqiyaa lubichi, Ahiiqaam, Akboor, Shaafaanii fi Asaayaan Huldaanaa raajittii gaafachuu dhaqan. Huldaanaan kun niitii Shaluum ilma Tiqwaa, ilma Harhaas kan eegduu uffataa ture sanaa ti. Isheenis Yerusaalem keessa Aanaa Lammaffaa keessa jiraatti turte.

So Hilkiah the Priest and Ahikam, and Achbor and Shaphan, and Asahiah went vnto Huldah the Prophetesse the wife of Shallum, ye sonne of Tikuah, the sonne of Harhas keeper of the wardrobe: (and she dwelt in Ierusalem in the colledge) and they communed with her.

15 Isheenis akkana isaaniin jette; “Waaqayyo Waaqni Israaʼel akkana jedha: Namicha natti isin erge sanatti akkana jedhaa himaa.

And shee answered them, Thus sayth the Lord God of Israel, Tel the man that sent you to mee,

16 ‘Waaqayyo akkana jedha: Ani akkuma waan kitaaba mootichi Yihuudaa dubbise sana keessatti barreeffame hundaatti iddoo kanaa fi saba isaatti badiisa nan fida.

Thus sayth the Lord, Behold, I wil bring euill vpon this place, and on the inhabitants thereof, euen al the words of the booke which ye King of Iudah hath read,

17 Sababii isaan na dhiisanii waaqota biraatiif ixaana aarsuudhaan waaqota tolfamoo harki isaanii tolche hundaan dheekkamsaaf na kakaasaniif, dheekkamsi koo iddoo kana irratti ni bobaʼa; hin dhaamus.’

Because they haue forsaken mee, and haue burnt incense vnto other gods, to anger me with all ye works of their hands: my wrath also shalbe kindled against this place and shall not be queched:

18 Mootii Yihuudaa kan akka isin Waaqayyoon gaafattaniif isin erge sanatti akkana jedhaatii himaa; ‘Waaʼee dubbii ati dhageesse sanaa, Waaqayyo Waaqni Israaʼel akkana jedha;

But to the King of Iudah, who sent you to inquire of the Lord, so shall ye say vnto him, Thus sayeth the Lord God of Israel, The wordes that thou hast heard, shall come to passe.

19 “Sababii ati yeroo waan ani waaʼee iddoo kanaatii fi waaʼee saba isaa akka isaan abaaramanii barbadeeffaman waan hamaa dubbadhe dhageessetti garaan kee tuqamee fuula Waaqayyoo duratti gad of qabdeef, sababii uffata kee tarsaaftee fuula koo duratti boosseef, ani si dhagaʼeera” jedha Waaqayyo.

But because thine heart did melt, and thou hast humbled thy selfe before the Lord, when thou heardest what I spake against this place, and against the inhabitants of the same, to wit, that it should be destroyed and accursed, and hast rent thy clothes, and wept before me, I haue also heard it, saith the Lord.

20 Kanaafuu ani abbootii kee biratti walittin si qaba; atis nagumaan awwaalamta. Waan hamaa ani iddoo kana irratti fiduuf jiru hunda iji kee hin argu.’” Isaanis deebii ishee fudhatanii gara mootichaatti deebiʼan.

Beholde therefore, I wil gather thee to thy fathers, and thou shalt be put in thy graue in peace, and thine eyes shall not see all the euil, which I will bring vpon this place. Thus they brought the King worde againe.
