2 Mootota 6
1 Ilmaan raajotaa sun Elsaaʼiin akkana jedhan; “Kunoo, iddoon nu si wajjin wal geenyu nutti dhiphateera.
And the children of the Prophets saide vnto Elisha, Behold, we pray thee, the place where we dwell with thee, is too litle for vs.
2 Akka nu Yordaanos dhaqnee tokkoon tokkoon keenya muka cirannee iddoo jiraannu achitti ijaarrannuuf nuu eeyyami.” Innis, “Dhaqaa” jedheen.
Let vs nowe goe to Iorden, that we may take thence euery man a beame, and make vs a place to dwell in. And he answered, Goe.
3 Isaan keessaa namni tokko, “Maaloo ati nu garboota kee wajjin hin deemtuu?” jedhee gaafate. Elsaaʼi immoo, “Nan deema” jedhee deebise.
And one said, Vouchsafe, I pray thee, to go with thy seruants, and he answered, I will goe.
4 Innis isaan wajjin deeme. Isaan Yordaanos dhaqanii muka cirachuu jalqaban.
So he went with them, and when they came to Iorden, they cut downe wood.
5 Isaan keessaa tokko utuu muka muruutti jiruu qottoon muka isaa irraa buqqaʼee bishaan keessa buʼe. Namichi sunis, “Wayyoo kaa, yaa gooftaa koo; wanni kun waan ergifatamee dha!” jedhee iyye.
And as one was felling of a tree, the yron fell into the water: then he cryed, and said, Alas master, it was but borowed.
6 Namni Waaqaa sunis “Qottoon eessa buʼe?” jedhee gaafate. Yommuu inni iddoo qottoon sun buʼe isa argisiisetti Elsaaʼi muka xinnaa tokko kutee achi keessa buusee akka sibiilli sun bishaan gubbaa deemu godhe.
And the man of God saide, Where fell it? And he shewed him the place. Then he cut downe a piece of wood, and cast in thither, and he caused the yron to swimme.
7 Innis, “Ol fudhadhu” jedheen. Namichi sunis harka diriirfatee qottoo isaa fudhate.
Then he saide, Take it vp to thee. And he stretched out his hand, and tooke it.
8 Yeroo sanatti mootiin Sooriyaa Israaʼeliin wal lolaa ture. Innis erga ajajjoota loltoota isaatiin mariʼatee booddee, “Ani lafa akkasiitii fi lafa akkasii keessa qubata koo nan dhaabbadha” jedhe.
Then the King of Aram warred against Israel, and tooke counsell with his seruants, and said, In such and such a place shalbe my campe.
9 Namni Waaqaa sunis, “Sababii namoonni Sooriyaa achitti gad buʼaa jiraniif ati akka karaa sanaan hin dabarre of eeggadhu” jedhee mootii Israaʼelitti ergaa erge.
Therefore the man of God sent vnto the King of Israel, saying, Beware thou goe not ouer to such a place: for there the Aramites are come downe.
10 Kanaafuu mootiin Israaʼel gara iddoo namni Waaqaa sun waaʼee isaa dubbate sanaatti nama ergee ni toʼate. Elsaaʼis akka mootichi iddoowwan akkasii irraa of eeggatu ammumaa amma isa akeekkachiise.
So the King of Israel sent to the place which the man of God tolde him, and warned him of, and saued himselfe from thence, not once, nor twise.
11 Wanni kun akka malee mootii Sooriyaa aarse. Innis ajajjoota loltoota isaa walitti waamee, “Isin amma nama nu keessaa mootii Israaʼeliif hojjechaa jiru natti hin himtanii?” jedhee gaafate.
And the heart of the King of Aram was troubled for this thing: therefore he called his seruants and saide vnto them, Will ye not shewe me, which of vs bewrayeth our counsel to the king of Israel?
12 Ajajjoota sana keessaa namni tokko akkana jedhe; “Yaa gooftaa koo mooticha, nu keessaa namni akkasii hin jiru; garuu Elsaaʼi raajicha Israaʼel keessa jiru sanatu dubbii ati diinqa kee keessatti dubbattu hunda mootii Israaʼelitti hima.”
Then one of his seruants saide, None, my lorde, O King, but Elisha the Prophet that is in Israel, telleth the King of Israel, euen the wordes that thou speakest in thy priuie chamber.
13 Mootichi Sooriyaas, “Akka ani nama itti ergee isa qabsiisuu dandaʼuuf dhaqaatii lafa inni jiru ilaalaa” jedhee ajaje. Oduun, “Inni Dootaan keessa jira” jedhu tokkos isatti himame.
And he said, Goe, and espie where he is, that I may sende and fetch him. And one tolde him, saying, Beholde, he is in Dothan.
14 Innis ergasii fardeen, gaariiwwanii fi waraana jabaa achitti ni erge. Isaanis halkaniin dhaqanii magaalaa sana marsan.
So he sent thither horses, and charets, and a mightie hoste: and they came by night, and compassed the citie.
15 Yommuu tajaajilaan nama Waaqaa sanaa guyyaa itti aanu ganama bariin gad baʼetti humni waraanaa tokko fardeenii fi gaariiwwaniin magaalaa sana marsee ture. Tajaajilaan sunis, “Wayyoo kaa, yaa gooftaa ko, maal goonu?” jedhee gaafate.
And when the seruant of the man of God arose earely to goe out, beholde, an hoste compassed the citie with horses and charets. Then his seruant sayde vnto him, Alas master, howe shall we doe?
16 Raajiin sun immoo, “Hin sodaatin; warri nu wajjin jiran warra isaan wajjin jiran caalaniitii” jedhee deebise.
And he answered, Feare not: for they that be with vs, are moe then they that be with them.
17 Elsaaʼis, “Yaa Waaqayyo, akka inni arguu dandaʼuuf ija isaa baniif” jedhee kadhate. Waaqayyos ija tajaajilaa sanaa ni bane; innis milʼatee akka gaarran sun naannoo Elsaaʼitti fardeenii fi gaariiwwan ibiddaatiin guutamanii jiran ni arge.
Then Elisha prayed, and saide, Lord, I beseech thee, open his eyes, that he may see. And the Lord opened the eyes of the seruant, and he looked, and beholde, the mountaine was full of horses and charets of fyre round about Elisha.
18 Diinni sun gara isaatti gad buunaan Elsaaʼi, “Jara kana jaamsi” jedhee Waaqayyoon kadhate. Kanaafuu Waaqni akkuma Elsaaʼi isa kadhate sana isaan jaamse.
So they came downe to him, but Elisha prayed vnto the Lord, and said, Smite this people, I pray thee, with blindnesse. And he smote them with blindnes, according to the worde of Elisha.
19 Elsaaʼis, “Karaan sun kana miti; magaalaan sunis kana miti. Amma na duukaa buʼaa; anis nama isin barbaaddanitti isinan geessa” jedheen. Innis akkasiin Samaariyaatti isaan ni geesse.
And Elisha said vnto them, This is not the way, neither is this the citie: follow me, and I will leade you to the man whome ye seeke. But he ledde them to Samaria.
20 Erga isaan magaalaa sana seenanii booddee Elsaaʼi, “Yaa Waaqayyo akka isaan arguu dandaʼaniif ija jara kanaa baniif” jedhe. Waaqayyos ija isaanii ni baneef; isaanis akka Samaariyaa keessa jiran ni argan.
And when they were come to Samaria, Elisha saide, Lord, open their eyes that they may see. And the Lord opened their eyes, and they saw, and beholde, they were in the mids of Samaria.
21 Mootiin Israaʼelis isaan arginaan, “Yaa abbaa ko, ani isaan fixuu? Ani isaan fixuu?” jedhee Elsaaʼin ni gaafate.
And the King of Israel sayde vnto Elisha when he sawe them, My father, shall I smite them, shall I smite them?
22 Innis akkana jedhee deebise; “Isaan hin fixin; ati namoota boojite goraadee keetiin yookaan xiyya keetiin ni ajjeeftaa? Akka isaan nyaatanii dhuganii gara gooftaa isaaniitti deebiʼaniif nyaataa fi dhugaatii dhiʼeessiif.”
And he answered, Thou shalt not smite them: doest thou not smite them that thou hast taken with thy sworde, and with thy bowe? but set bread and water before them, that they may eate and drinke and goe to their master.
23 Kanaafuu inni cidha guddaa qopheesseefii erga isaan nyaatanii dhuganii booddee of irraa isaan geggeesse; isaanis gara gooftaa isaaniitti deebiʼan. Namoonni Sooriyaas ergasii deebiʼanii biyya Israaʼel hin weerarre.
And he made great preparation for them: and when they had eaten and drunken, he sent them away: and they went to their master. So ye bands of Aram came no more into the land of Israel.
24 Yeroo gabaabaa booddee, Ben-Hadaad mootichi Sooriyaa loltoota isaa hunda walitti qabatee dhaqee Samaariyaa marse.
But afterward Ben-hadad King of Aram gathered all his hoste, and went vp, and besieged Samaria.
25 Beela akka malee hamaatu magaalaa sana keessa ture; waan magaalaan sun yeroo dheeraadhaaf marfamteef, mataan harree tokko meetii saqilii saddeettamatti, udaan gugee kiiloon tokko harka afur keessaa harki tokko meetii saqilii shanitti gurgurame.
So there was a great famine in Samaria: for loe, they besieged it vntill an asses head was at foure score pieces of siluer, and the fourth part of a kab of doues doung at fiue pieces of siluer.
26 Utuu mootiin Israaʼel dallaa dhagaa irraan darbuu dubartiin tokko, “Yaa gooftaa koo mooticha, na gargaari” jettee itti iyyite.
And as the King of Israel was going vpon the wall, there cryed a woman vnto him, saying, Helpe, my lord, O King.
27 Mootichi immoo akkana jedhee deebiseef; “Yoo Waaqayyo si hin gargaarin ani eessaan gargaarsa siif arga? Oobdii midhaanii irraa moo? Iddoo wayinii itti cuunfan irraa?”
And he said, Seeing the Lord doeth not succour thee, howe shoulde I helpe thee with the barne, or with the wine presse?
28 Ergasii, “Rakkoon kee maal?” jedhee ishee gaafate. Isheenis akkana jettee deebifteef; “Dubartiin kun, ‘Akka nu harʼa isa nyaannuuf mucaa kee nuu kenni; bor immoo mucaa koo nyaannaatii’ naan jette.
Also the King said vnto her, What ayleth thee? And she answered, This woman sayde vnto me, Giue thy sonne, that we may eate him to day, and we will eate my sonne to morowe,
29 Kanaaf nu mucaa koo bilcheeffannee nyaanne. Guyyaa itti aanutti immoo ani, ‘Akka nu isa nyaannuuf mucaa kee nuuf kenni’ jedheen. Isheen garuu mucaa ishee ni dhokfatte.”
So we sod my sonne, and did eate him: and I saide to her the day after, Giue thy sonne, that we may eate him, but she hath hid her sonne.
30 Mootichi yommuu dubbii dubartii sanaa dhagaʼetti uffata isaa tarsaase. Utuu inni dallaa dhagaa irraan darbaa jiruu namoonni akka inni dhagna isaatti aansee wayyaa gaddaa uffatee jiru argan.
And when the King had heard the wordes of the woman, he rent his clothes, (and as he went vpon the wall, the people looked, and behold, he had sackecloth within vpon his flesh)
31 Innis, “Yoo mataan Elsaaʼi ilma Shaafaax, edana isa irra bule, Waaqni na haa adabu; adabbiin sunis akka malee natti haa cimuu!” jedhe.
And he saide, God doe so to me and more also, if the head of Elisha the sonne of Shaphat shall stande on him this day.
32 Yeroo kanatti Elsaaʼi mana isaa keessa taaʼaa ture; maanguddoonnis isa wajjin tataaʼaa turan. Mootichi ergamaa tokko of dura erge; garuu utuu ergamaan sun hin dhufinuu Elsaaʼi maanguddootaan akkana jedhe; “Isin akka namichi nama ajjeesu kun mataa narraa kutuuf nama erge argituu? Kunoo yoo ergamaan sun dhufe balbala cufaatii ol seenuu dhowwaa. Kotteen gooftaa isaa isa duubaan dhagaʼamaa jira mitii?”
(Nowe Elisha sate in his house, and the Elders sate with him.) And the King sent a man before him: but before the messenger came to him, he saide to the Elders, See ye not howe this murtherers sonne hath sent to take away mine head? take heede when the messenger commeth, and shut the doore and handle him roughly at the doore: is not the sounde of his masters feete behinde him?
33 Utuma inni amma iyyuu isaan wajjin haasaʼaa jiruu, ergamaan sun gara isaa dhufe. Mootichis, “Balaan kun Waaqayyo biraa dhufe. Ani siʼachi maaliifin Waaqayyoon eega?” jedhe.
While he yet talked with them, beholde, the messenger came downe vnto him, and saide, Behold, this euill commeth of the Lord: should I attende on the Lord any longer?
