1 Aariin Waaqayyoo ammas Israaʼelitti kaʼee Daawitiin, “Dhaqiitii Israaʼelii fi Yihuudaa lakkaaʼi” jedhee isaanitti kakaase.
Lwaselubuya lwamvuthela uIsrayeli ulaka lukaJehova, wabavusela uDavida, esithi: Hamba ubale uIsrayeli loJuda.
2 Kanaafuu mootichi Yooʼaabii fi ajajjoota waraanaa kanneen isa bira turaniin, “Akka ani akka isaan hammam akka baayʼatan beekuu dandaʼuuf gosoota Israaʼel kanneen Daanii hamma Bersheebaatti jiraatan hunda keessa deemaatii namoota loluu dandaʼan galmeessaa” jedhe.
Ngakho inkosi yathi kuJowabi induna yebutho eyayilaye: Hamba khathesi ubhode ezizweni zonke zakoIsrayeli, kusukela koDani kuze kube seBherishebha, libale abantu ukuze ngazi inani labantu.
3 Yooʼaab garuu deebisee, “Waaqayyo Waaqni kee loltoota kee dachaa dhibba caalaa haa baayʼisu; iji gooftaa koo mootichaas waan kana haa argu. Garuu gooftaan koo mootichi maaliif waan kana gochuu barbaade?” jedhe.
UJowabi wasesithi enkosini: Aluba iNkosi uNkulunkulu wakho ingandisa ebantwini, loba bebanengi kangakanani, kuphindwe ngokulikhulu, ukuthi amehlo enkosi yami, inkosi, akubone. Kodwa inkosi yami, inkosi, ithokozelani kulinto?
4 Taʼus dubbiin mootichaa Yooʼaabii fi ajajjoota loltootaa yaada geeddarachiise; kanaafuu isaan fuula mootichaa duraa baʼanii namoota Israaʼel kanneen loluu dandaʼan galmeessuu deeman.
Kodwa ilizwi lenkosi lalilamandla phezu kukaJowabi laphezu kwezinduna zebutho. Ngakho uJowabi lenduna zebutho baphuma phambi kwenkosi ukuze babale abantu, uIsrayeli.
5 Isaanis erga Yordaanos ceʼanii booddee gara kibba magaalaa sulula keessatti argamuutiin Aroʼeer bira qubatan; achii immoo Gaad keessa darbanii Yaʼizeeritti qajeelan.
Basebechapha iJordani, bamisa inkamba eAroweri, ngakwesokunene komuzi ophakathi kwesifula seGadi, lamaqondana leJazeri.
6 Isaanis gara Giliʼaadii fi Tabaason Adasaay, itti aansanii gara Daan yaaʼanii achii immoo naannaʼanii Siidoonaa dhaqan.
Basebefika eGileyadi lelizweni leTahetimi-Hodishi; bafika eDani-Jahani, babhoda ngaseSidoni,
7 Ergasii immoo gara Daʼannoo Xiiroos, gara magaalaawwan Hiiwotaatii fi Kanaʼaanotaa hundaa dhaqan. Dhuma irratti immoo gara Bersheebaa kan kibba Yihuudaatti argamtu sanaa dhaqan.
bafika enqabeni yeTire lemizini yonke yamaHivi leyamaKhanani; baphuma baya eningizimu yakoJuda, eBherishebha.
8 Isaanis erga guutummaa biyyattii keessa naannaʼanii booddee jiʼa sagalii fi bultii digdamaatti Yerusaalemitti deebiʼan.
Sebebhode badabula ilizwe lonke, bafika eJerusalema ekupheleni kwenyanga eziyisificamunwemunye lensuku ezingamatshumi amabili.
9 Yooʼaabis lakkoobsa namoota loluu dandaʼanii mootichatti hime; Israaʼel keessa namoota lolaaf gaʼumsa qaban kanneen goraadee qabachuu dandaʼan kuma dhibba saddeeti, Yihuudaa keessa immoo namoota kuma dhibba shanitu ture.
UJowabi waseyinika inkosi inani lokubalwa kwabantu; njalo kwakukhona koIsrayeli amaqhawe ayizinkulungwane ezingamakhulu ayisificaminwembili ahwatsha inkemba; lamadoda akoJuda ayengamadoda ayizinkulungwane ezingamakhulu amahlanu.
10 Daawit waan erga loltoota lakkaaʼee booddee balleessaan itti dhagaʼameef Waaqayyoon, “Ani waan hojjedhe keessatti cubbuu guddaa hojjedheera. Yaa Waaqayyo, ani akka ati balleessaa garbicha keetii dhiiftuuf sin kadhadha. Ani hojii gowwummaa guddaa hojjedheeraa” jedhe.
Inhliziyo kaDavida yasimtshaya emva kokuthi esebale abantu. UDavida wasesithi eNkosini: Ngonile kakhulu ngalokho engikwenzileyo. Ngakho-ke, Nkosi, ngiyakuncenga, susa ububi benceku yakho, ngoba ngenze ngobuthutha obukhulu.
11 Guyyaa itti aanutti utuu Daawit hirribaa hin kaʼin ergaan Waaqayyoo gara waa himaa Daawit gara Gaad raajichaa dhufe; ergaan sunis,
Kwathi uDavida esevukile ekuseni, kwafika ilizwi leNkosi kuGadi umprofethi, umboni kaDavida, lisithi:
12 “Dhaqiitii Daawitiin, ‘Waaqayyo akkana siin jedha: Ani filannoo sadii siifin kenna; akka ani isa sitti fiduuf isaan keessaa tokko filadhu’ jedhi” jedha.
Hamba uthi kuDavida: Itsho njalo iNkosi ithi: Ngikubekela okuthathu; zikhethele okukodwa kukho, ukuthi ngikwenze kuwe.
13 Kanaafuu Gaad gara Daawit dhaqee, “Waggaa torba biyya kee irra beelli haa buʼuu? Yookaan diinonni kee jiʼa sadiif si haa ariʼanii? Yookaan dhaʼichi guyyaa sadii biyya kee haa dhaʼuu? Egaa amma itti yaadiitii waan ani isa na erge sanaaf deebisu murteessi” jedheen.
UGadi wasefika kuDavida, wamtshela wathi kuye: Kufike kuwe yini iminyaka eyisikhombisa yendlala elizweni lakini? Loba ubalekele izitha zakho inyanga ezintathu zixotshana lawe? Ingabe kube khona umatshayabhuqe wesifo okwensuku ezintathu elizweni lakini? Khathesi cabanga, ubone ukuthi yimpendulo bani engizayibuyisela kongithumileyo.
14 Daawit immoo Gaadiin, “Ani akka malee dhiphadheera. Waan araarri isaa guddaa taʼeef nu harka Waaqayyoo haa seennu; garuu akka ani harka namaa seenu hin godhin” jedhe.
UDavida wasesithi kuGadi: Ngicindezelekile kakhulu; ake siwele esandleni seNkosi, ngoba izisa zayo zinkulu, kodwa kangingaweli esandleni somuntu.
15 Kanaafuu Waaqayyo guyyaa itti aanu ganamaa jalqabee hamma guyyaan murtaaʼe raawwatutti Israaʼelitti dhaʼicha fide; Daanii hamma Bersheebaatti namoonni kumni torbaatamni ni dhuman.
Ngakho iNkosi yasibeka umatshayabhuqe wesifo kuIsrayeli, kusukela ekuseni kwaze kwaba sesikhathini esimisiweyo; kwasekusifa ebantwini abantu abayizinkulungwane ezingamatshumi ayisikhombisa kusukela koDani kwaze kwaba seBherishebha.
16 Yeroo ergamaan Waaqayyoo Yerusaalemin balleessuuf harka isaa diriirfatetti Waaqayyo sababii hubaatiin sun isa gaddisiiseef ergamaa isaa kan saba balleessuuf ture sanaan, “Ni gaʼa! Harka kee deebifadhu” jedhe. Yeroo sana ergamaan Waaqayyoo oobdii Arawunaa namicha gosa Yebuus sanaa bira ture.
Lapho ingilosi iselulela isandla sayo eJerusalema ukuyibhubhisa, iNkosi yazisola ngalobobubi, yathi engilosini eyayibhubhisa abantu: Sekwanele. Khathesi finyeza isandla sakho. Ingilosi yeNkosi yayisebaleni lokubhulela likaArawuna umJebusi.
17 Daawit yommuu ergamaa Waaqayyoo kan namoota ajjeesaa ture sana argetti, Waaqayyoon, “Namni cubbuu fi balleessaa hojjete anuma. Isaan kunneen garuu hoolotaa dha. Isaan maal godhan? Harki kee anaa fi maatii koo irra haa buʼu” jedhe.
UDavida wasekhuluma eNkosini lapho ebona ingilosi eyayitshaya abantu, wathi: Khangela, mina ngonile, njalo mina ngenze okubi; pho, lezizimvu zenzeni? Isandla sakho ake simelane lami njalo simelane lendlu kababa.
18 Gaafas Gaad gara Daawit dhaqee, “Ol baʼiitii oobdii Arawunaa namicha gosa Yebuus sanaa keessatti iddoo aarsaa Waaqayyoof ijaari” jedheen.
UGadi wasefika kuDavida ngalolosuku, wathi kuye: Yenyuka, umisele iNkosi ilathi ebaleni lokubhulela likaArawuna umJebusi.
19 Kanaafuu Daawit akkuma Waaqayyo karaa Gaadiin isa ajajetti ol baʼe.
UDavida wasesenyuka njengokutsho kukaGadi, njengokulaya kweNkosi.
20 Arawunaan yommuu milʼatee mootichaa fi namoota isaa kanneen gara isaa dhufaa jiran argetti, gad baʼee fuula mootichaa duratti addaan lafatti gombifamee sagade.
UArawuna waselunguza, wabona inkosi lenceku zayo beqhubeka besiza kuye; uArawuna wasephuma wakhothama phambi kwenkosi ngobuso bakhe emhlabathini.
21 Arawunaanis, “Gooftaan koo mootichi maaliif gara garbicha isaa dhufe?” jedhe. Daawit immoo, “Ani akka dhaʼichi saba irra buʼe kun dhaabatuuf, oobdii kee bitee isa irratti iddoo aarsaa Waaqayyoof tolchuufin dhufe” jedhee deebise.
UArawuna wasesithi: Kungani inkosi yami, inkosi, ize encekwini yayo? UDavida wasesithi: Ukuthi ngithenge kuwe ibala lokubhulela, ukuthi ngakhele iNkosi ilathi, ukuze inhlupheko ithinteke ingafiki ebantwini.
22 Arawunaanis Daawitiin akkana jedhe; “Gooftaan koo mootichi waan isatti tolu kam iyyuu fudhatee haa dhiʼeessu. Aarsaa gubamuuf sangoonni kunoo ti; qoraaniif immoo miʼi ittiin midhaan dhaʼamuu fi waanjoon sangaa as jira.
UArawuna wasesithi kuDavida: Inkosi yami, inkosi, kayithathe inikele lokho okuhle emehlweni ayo; bona, nanzi inkabi zomnikelo wokutshiswa, lezimbulo lezinto zenkabi kube zinkuni.
23 Yaa mootii, Arawunaan waan kana hunda mootichaaf ni kenna.” Akkasumas Arawunaan, “Waaqayyo Waaqni kee siif haa fudhatu” isaan jedhe.
Konke lokhu, nkosi, uArawuna wakunika inkosi; uArawuna wasesithi enkosini: INkosi uNkulunkulu wakho kayikwemukele.
24 Mootichi garuu, “Akkas miti; ani gatiidhaan sirraa bituu na barbaachisa. Ani waan gatii itti hin baasin Waaqayyo Waaqa kootiif aarsaa gubamu godhee hin dhiʼeessu” jedhee Arawunaaf deebise. Kanaafuu Daawit oobdichaa fi sangoota sana meetii saqilii shantamaan bite.
Inkosi yasisithi kuArawuna: Hatshi, kodwa ngizakuthenga lokukuthenga kuwe ngentengo; njalo kangiyikunikela iminikelo yokutshiswa engangibizanga lutho eNkosini uNkulunkulu wami. UDavida waselithenga ibala lokubhulela lezinkabi ngamashekeli esiliva angamatshumi amahlanu.
25 Daawitis achitti iddoo aarsaa Waaqayyoof tolchee aarsaa gubamuu fi aarsaa nagaa dhiʼeesse. Waaqayyos kadhannaa waaʼee biyyattiif dhiʼaateef deebii kenne; dhaʼichis Israaʼel irraa ni deebiʼe.
UDavida wasesakhela khona iNkosi ilathi, wanikela iminikelo yokutshiswa leminikelo yokuthula. Ngakho iNkosi yancengeka ngelizwe, inhlupheko yasithinteka phezu kukaIsrayeli.
