2 Mootota 23
1 Ergasiis mootichi maanguddoota Yihuudaa fi Yerusaalem hunda walitti ni waame.
Then the King sent, and there gathered vnto him all the Elders of Iudah and of Ierusalem.
2 Innis namoota Yihuudaa, jiraattota Yerusaalem, lubootaa fi raajota wajjin jechuunis nama xinnaa fi guddaa hunda wajjin gara mana qulqullummaa Waaqayyootti ol baʼe. Dubbii Kitaaba Kakuu kan mana qulqullummaa Waaqayyoo keessatti argame sanaa hundas akka isaan dhagaʼanitti dubbiseef.
And the King went vp into the house of the Lord, with all the men of Iudah and all the inhabitants of Ierusalem with him, and the Priests and Prophets, and all the people both small and great: and he reade in their eares all the wordes of the booke of the couenant, which was found in the house of the Lord.
3 Mootichis utubaa bira dhaabatee akka Waaqayyoon duukaa buʼu, akka garaa isaa guutuu fi lubbuu isaa guutuudhaan ajaja isaa, dambiiwwan isaatii fi labsiiwwan isaa eegee akkasiin dubbiiwwan kakuu kanneen kitaaba kana keessatti barreeffaman hojii irra oolchu fuula Waaqayyoo duratti kakuu ni haaromse; ergasiis sabni hundi kakuu ni haaromse.
And the King stood by the pillar, and made a couenant before the Lord, that they shoulde walke after the Lord, and keepe his commandements, and his testimonies, and his statutes with all their heart, and with all their soule, that they might accomplish the wordes of this couenant written in this booke. And all the people stood to the couenant.
4 Mootichis akka isaan miʼoota Baʼaaliif, Asheeraadhaa fi raayyaawwan samiitiif hojjetaman hunda mana qulqullummaa Waaqayyoo keessaa baasaniif Hilqiyaa lubicha ol aanaa, luboota sadarkaan isatti aananii fi eegdota balbalaa ajaje. Innis miʼoota sana Yerusaalem keessaa baasee dirree Sulula Qeedroon irratti gube; daaraa isaas fuudhee Beetʼeelitti geesse.
Then the King commanded Hilkiah the hie Priest and the priests of the second order, and the keepers of the doore, to bring out of ye Temple of the Lord all the vessels that were made for Baal, and for the groue, and for all the hoste of heauen, and he burnt them without Ierusalem in the fieldes of Kedron, and caryed the pouder of them into Beth-el.
5 Luboota waaqota tolfamoo kanneen akka isaan iddoowwan sagadaa kanneen magaalaawwan Yihuudaatii fi naannoo Yerusaalem kanneen gaarran irraatiif ixaana aarsaniif mootonni Yihuudaa muudan sana jechuunis warra Baʼaaliif, aduu fi jiʼaaf, tuuta urjiitii fi raayyaawwan samii hundaaf ixaana aarsaa turanis ni barbadeesse.
And he put downe the Chemarims, whom the Kings of Iudah had founded to burne incense in the hie places, and in the cities of Iudah, and about Ierusalem, and also them that burnt incense vnto Baal, to the sunne and to the moone, and to the planets, and to all the hoste of heauen.
6 Siidaa Aasheeraas mana qulqullummaa Waaqayyootii fuudhee Yerusaalem keessaa baasee Sulula Qeedroonitti geessee achitti ni gube. Isas daakee bulleessee daaraa isaa awwaala namootaa irratti firfirse.
And he brought out the groue from the Temple of the Lord without Ierusalem vnto the valley of Kedron, and burnt it in the valley Kedron, and stampt it to pouder, and cast the dust thereof vpon the graues of the children of the people.
7 Innis mana dhiirota mana sagadaa keessatti sagaagalanii kan mana qulqullummaa Waaqayyoo keessa jiru, iddoo itti dubartoonni Asheeraadhaaf golgaa hojjetan sana ni diige.
And hee brake downe the houses of the Sodomites, that were in the house of the Lord, where the women woue hangings for the groue.
8 Yosiyaasis luboota hunda magaalaawwan Yihuudaatii ni fide; innis iddoowwan sagadaa kanneen Gebaadhaa hamma Bersheebaatti turan kanneen luboonni ixaana itti aarsaa turan sana ni xureesse. Akkasumas galmawwan waaqeffannaa karrawwan cinaa kanneen balbala Karra Iyyaasuu bulchaa magaalaa sanaa dura karaa gama bitaa magaalattiin turan sana ni diige.
Also he brought all the priests out of the cities of Iudah, and defiled the hie places where the Priests had burnt incense, euen from Geba to Beer-sheba, and destroyed the hie places of the gates, that were in the entring in of the gate of Ioshua the gouernour of the citie, which was at the left hand of the gate of the citie.
9 Luboonni iddoowwan sagadaa kunneen yoo iddoo aarsaa Waaqayyoo kan Yerusaalem keessaa irra tajaajiluu baatan illee isaan luboota akka isaanii wajjin Maxinoo nyaatan ture.
Neuerthelesse the Priests of the hie places came not vp to the altar of the Lord in Ierusalem, saue onely they did eate of the vnleauened bread among their brethren.
10 Innis akka namni tokko iyyuu ilma isaa yookaan intala isaa aarsaa godhee ibiddaan Moolekiif hin dhiʼeessineef Toofeti kan Sulula Ben Hinoom keessatti argamu sana ni xureesse.
He defiled also Topheth, which was in the valley of the children of Hinnom, that no man shoulde make his sonne or his daughter passe through the fire to Molech.
11 Akkasumas fardeen mootonni Yihuudaa aduudhaaf kennan sana balbala mana qulqullummaa Waaqayyootti geessu irraa fuudhee ni balleesse. Fardeen sun oobdii kutaa mana Naataan-Meelek qondaaltichaa biraa keessa turan. Ergasiis Yosiyaas gaariiwwan aduu sana ibiddaan ni gube.
He put downe also the horses that the Kings of Iudah had giuen to the sunne at the entring in of the house of the Lord, by the chamber of Nethan-melech the eunuche, which was ruler of the suburbes, and burnt the charets of the sunne with fire.
12 Mootichis iddoowwan aarsaa mootonni Yihuudaa bantii manaa irra, kutaa mana Aahaaz kan ol aanu bira dhaabanii fi iddoowwan aarsaa Minaaseen mana qulqullummaa Waaqayyoo keessa oobdiiwwan lamaan keessa dhaabe sana ni buqqise. Iddoowwan aarsaa sanas achii fuudhee ni caccabsee, caccabaa isaanii Sulula Qeedroon keessatti ni gate.
And the altars that were on the top of the chamber of Ahaz, which the Kings of Iudah had made, and the altars which Manasseh had made in the two courts of the house of the Lord did the King breake downe, and hasted thence, and cast the dust of them in the brooke Kedron.
13 Akkasumas mootichi iddoowwan sagadaa kanneen gama baʼa Yerusaalemitti karaa kibba Gaara Faalamuutiin turan kanneen Solomoon mootichi Israaʼel Ashtooreti waaqittii xurooftuu Siidoonotaa, Kemoosh waaqicha xuraaʼaa Moʼaabii fi Moolek waaqicha xuraaʼaa ijoollee Amooniitiif hojjete sana ni xureesse.
Moreouer the King defiled the hie places that were before Ierusalem and on the right hand of the mount of corruption (which Salomon the King of Israel had buylt for Ashtoreth the idole of the Zidonians, and for Chemosh the idole of the Moabites, and for Milchom the abomination of the children of Ammon)
14 Yosiyaas soodduuwwan dhagaa caccabsee siidaawwan Aasheeraas diigee iddoo sana lafee namaatiin guute.
And he brake the images in pieces, and cut downe the groues and filled their places with the bones of men.
15 Akkasumas iddoo aarsaa Beetʼeel keessa ture sanaa fi iddoo sagadaa kan Yerobiʼaam ilmi Nebaat inni Israaʼelin cubbuu hojjechiise sun ijaare iddoo aarsaa sanaa fi iddoo sagadaa ni diige. Iddoo sagadaa sanas caccabsee, daakee bulleesse; siidaa Aasheeraas ni gube.
Furthermore the altar that was at Beth-el, and the hie place made by Ieroboam the sonne of Nebat, which made Israel to sinne, both this altar and also the hie place, brake he downe, and burnt the hie place, and stampt it to powder and burnt the groue.
16 Yosiyaasis of irra garagalee awwaalawwan tulluu irra jiran achitti arge; nama ergees awwaalawwan sana keessaa lafeewwan fichisiisee akkuma dubbii Waaqayyoo kan namni Waaqaa inni duraan dursee waan kana dubbate sun labsetti iddoo aarsaa irratti gubee isa xureesse.
And as Iosiah turned himselfe, he spied the graues, that were in the mount, and sent and tooke the bones out of the graues, and burnt them vpon the altar and polluted it, according to the word of the Lord, that the man of God proclaimed, which cryed the same wordes.
17 Mootichi, “Dhagaan awwaalaa kan ani arguutti jiru kun maal?” jedhee ni gaafate. Namoonni magaalaa sanaa immoo, “Inni awwaala nama Waaqaa kan Yihuudaadhaa dhufee waanuma ati iddoo aarsaa Beetʼeel goote kana duraan dursee labse sanaa ti” jedhan.
Then he sayde, What title is that which I see? And the men of the citie sayd vnto him, It is the sepulchre of the man of God, which came from Iudah, and tolde these things that thou hast done to the altar of Beth-el.
18 Innis, “Isa dhiisaa; namni tokko iyyuu lafee isaa hin tuqin” jedhe. Kanaafuu isaan lafee isaattii fi lafee raajicha Samaariyaadhaa dhufe sanaa illee ni dhiisan.
Then sayde he, Let him alone: let none remooue his bones. So his bones were saued with the bones of the Prophet that came from Samaria.
19 Yosiyaas akkuma Beetʼeelitti godhe sana iddoowwan sagadaa kanneen gaarran irraa kanneen mootonni Israaʼel magaalaawwan Samaariyaa keessatti ijaaranii Waaqayyoon dheekkamsaaf kakaasan sana hunda ni diige.
Iosiah also tooke away all the houses of the hie places, which were in the cities of Samaria, which the Kings of Israel had made to anger the Lord, and did to them according to all the factes that he had done in Beth-el.
20 Innis luboota iddoowwan sagadaa kanneen gaarran irraa hunda iddoowwan aarsaa irratti qalee lafee namaas achuma irratti ni gube. Ergasiis gara Yerusaalemitti ni deebiʼe.
And he sacrificed all the Priests of the hie places, that were there vpon the altars, and burnt mens bones vpon them, and returned to Ierusalem.
21 Mootichis, “Akkuma Kitaaba Kakuu kana keessatti barreeffame sanatti Waaqayyo Waaqa keessaniif Faasiikaa ayyaaneffadhaa” jedhee saba hunda ajaje.
Then the king commanded all the people, saying, Keepe the passeouer vnto the Lord your God, as it is written in the booke of this couenant.
22 Bara abbootii murtii kanneen Israaʼelin bulchaa turaniitii jalqabee yookaan bara mootota Israaʼel hunda keessa yookaan Yihuudaa keessa Faasiikaan akkasii takkumaa ayyaaneffamee hin beeku.
And there was no Passeouer holden like that from the dayes of the Iudges that iudged Israel, nor in all the dayes of the Kinges of Israel, and of the Kings of Iudah.
23 Garuu bara Yosiyaas mootichaa keessa waggaa kudha saddeettaffaatti Faasiikaan kun Yerusaalemitti Waaqayyoof ayyaaneffamaa ture.
And in the eightenth yere of King Iosiah was this Passeouer celebrated to the Lord in Ierusalem.
24 Kana malees Yosiyaas ilaaltotaa fi eker dubbistoota, taraafimii, waaqota tolfamoo fi wantoota jibbisiisoo kanneen Yihuudaa fi Yerusaalem keessatti argaman biraa hunda balleesse. Innis seera kitaaba Hilqiyaa lubichi mana qulqullummaa Waaqayyoo keessatti arge sana irratti barreeffame hojii irra oolchuudhaaf waan kana godhe.
Iosiah also tooke away them that had familiar spirits, and the soothsayers, and the images, and the idoles, and al the abominations that were espied in the lande of Iudah and in Ierusalem, to performe the wordes of the Lawe, which were written in the booke that Hilkiah the Priest found in the house of the Lord.
25 Mootiin akka Yosiyaas kan akka Seera Musee hundaatti garaa isaa guutuudhaan, lubbuu isaa guutuu fi humna isaa guutuudhaan gara Waaqayyootti deebiʼe tokko iyyuu isaan duras isaan duubas hin argamne.
Like vnto him was there no King before him, that turned to the Lord with al his heart, and with all his soule, and with all his might according to all the Lawe of Moses, neither after him arose there anie like him.
26 Taʼus sababii Minaaseen waan hojjete hundaan dheekkamsaaf isa kakaaseef Waaqayyo dheekkamsa isaa guddaa fi sodaachisaa Yihuudaa irratti bobaʼe sana irraa hin deebine.
Notwithstanding the Lord turned not from the fiercenesse of his great wrath wherewith he was angrie against Iudah, because of all the prouocatios wherwith Manasseh had prouoked him.
27 Kanaafuu Waaqayyo, “Ani akkuma Israaʼelin balleesse sana Yihuudaas fuula koo duraa nan balleessa; Yerusaalem magaalaa ani filadheef mana qulqullummaa kan ani, ‘Maqaan koo achi jiraata’ jedhee waaʼee isaa dubbadhe kana nan dhiisa” jedhe.
Therefore the Lord saide, I will put Iudah also out of my sight, as I haue put away Israel, and will cast off this citie Ierusalem, which I haue chosen, and the house whereof I said, My name shalbe there.
28 Wanni bara mootummaa Yosiyaas keessa hojjetame kan biraatii fi wanni inni hojjete hundi kitaaba seenaa mootota Yihuudaa keessatti barreeffameera mitii?
Concerning the rest of the actes of Iosiah, and all that hee did, are they not written in the booke of the Chronicles of the Kings of Iudah?
29 Bara Yosiyaas mootii turetti, Faraʼoon Nekkoon mootichi Gibxi mootii Asoor gargaaruuf jedhee gara Laga Efraaxiisitti ol baʼe. Yosiyaas mootichis of irraa isa ittisuudhaaf itti gad baʼe. Nekkoon garuu isatti dhufee Megidootti isa ajjeese.
In his dayes Pharaoh Nechoh King of Egypt went vp against the King of Asshur to the riuer Perath. And King Iosiah went against him, whome when Pharaoh sawe, he slewe him at Megiddo.
30 Garboonni Yosiyaasis gaariidhaan Megidoodhaa gara Yerusaalemitti reeffa isaa fidanii awwaala isaa keessatti isa awwaalan. Ergasiis sabni biyya sanaa Yehooʼaahaaz ilma Yosiyaas fuudhanii dibanii iddoo abbaa isaa buusanii mootii isa godhan.
Then his seruants caryed him dead from Megiddo, and brought him to Ierusalem, and buried him in his owne sepulchre. And the people of the lande tooke Iehoahaz the sonne of Iosiah, and anointed him, and made him King in his fathers steade.
31 Yehooʼaahaazis yeroo mootii taʼetti umuriin isaa waggaa digdamii sadii ture; innis Yerusaalem keessa taaʼee jiʼa sadii bulche. Maqaan haadha isaa Hamuutaal ture; isheenis intala Ermiyaas kan Libnaadhaa dhuftee turte.
Iehoahaz was three and twentie yeere olde when he beganne to reigne, and reigned three moneths in Ierusalem. His mothers name also was Hamutal the daughter of Ieremiah of Libnah.
32 Innis akkuma abbootiin isaa hojjetan sana fuula Waaqayyoo duratti waan hamaa hojjete.
And he did euill in the sight of the Lord, according to all that his fathers had done.
33 Akka inni Yerusaalem keessa taaʼee hin bulchineef Faraʼoon Nekkoon Hamaati keessatti Riiblaati foncaan isa hidhee Yihuudaa irrattis gibira meetii taalaantii dhibba tokkoo fi warqee taalaantii tokko mure.
And Pharaoh Nechoh put him in bondes at Riblah in the lande of Hamath, while he reigned in Ierusalem, and put the lande to a tribute of an hundreth talents of siluer, and a talent of golde.
34 Faraʼoon Nekkoon Eliiyaaqiim ilma Yosiyaas mootichaa iddoo Yosiyaas iddoo abbaa isaa buusee mootii godhe; maqaa Eliiyaaqiimis geeddaree Yehooyaaqiim jedheen. Yehooʼaahaazin garuu fuudhee Gibxitti geesse; innis achitti duʼe.
And Pharaoh Nechoh made Eliakim the sonne of Iosiah King in steade of Iosiah his father, and turned his name to Iehoiakim, and tooke Iehoahaz away, which when he came to Egypt, dyed there.
35 Yehooyaaqiimis meetii fi warqee Faraʼoon Nekkoon gaafate sana ni baase. Waan kana baasuufis gibira biyyatti muree namoota biyyattii irraa akkuma galii isaaniitti meetii fi warqee walitti qabe.
And Iehoiakim gaue the siluer and the golde to Pharaoh, and taxed the land to giue the money, according to the commadement of Pharaoh: he leuyed of euery man of the people of the lande, according to his value, siluer and golde to giue vnto Pharaoh Nechoh.
36 Yehooyaaqiim yeroo mootii taʼetti umuriin isaa waggaa digdamii shan ture; innis Yerusaalem keessa taaʼee waggaa kudha tokko bulche. Maqaan haadha isaa Zebuudaa ture; isheenis intala Phedaayaa kan magaalaa Ruumaatii dhufte turte.
Iehoiakim was fiue and twentie yere olde, when he began to reigne, and he reigned eleuen yeeres in Ierusalem. His mothers name also was Zebudah the daughter of Pedaiah of Rumah.
37 Innis akkuma abbootiin isaa hojjetan sana fuula Waaqayyoo duratti waan hamaa hojjete.
And he did euill in the sight of the Lord, according to all that his fathers had done.
