Abbootii Murtii 11
1 Yiftaan namichi gosa Giliʼaad sun goota ture. Abbaan isaa Giliʼaad jedhama; haati isaa immoo sagaagaltuu turte.
Then Gilead begate Iphtah, and Iphtah the Gileadite was a valiant man, but the sonne of an harlot.
2 Niitiin Giliʼaadis Giliʼaadiif ilmaan deesse; isaanis yommuu guddatanitti Yiftaadhaan, “Ati waan dubartii biraa irraa dhalatteef dhaala tokko illee maatii keenya irraa hin argattu” jedhanii isa ariʼan.
And Gileads wife bare him sonnes, and when the womans children were come to age, they thrust out Iphtah, and sayd vnto him, Thou shalt not inherite in our fathers house: for thou art the sonne of a strange woman.
3 Kanaafuu Yiftaan obboloota isaa duraa baqatee biyya Xoob jedhamu keessa jiraate; gareen kashlabbootaa naannoo isaatti walitti qabamanii isa duukaa buʼan.
Then Iphtah fledde from his brethren, and dwelt in the land of Tob: and there gathered idle fellowes to Iphtah, and went out with him.
4 Yeroo xinnoo booddee, yommuu Amoononni saba Israaʼelitti waraana kaasanitti,
And in processe of time the children of Ammon made warre with Israel.
5 maanguddoonni Giliʼaad Yiftaa barbaacha gara Xoob deeman.
And when the children of Ammon fought with Israel, the Elders of Gilead went to fet Iphtah out of the land of Tob.
6 Isaanis, “Akka nu Amoonota waraanuu dandeenyuuf kottuu ajajaa nuu taʼi” jedhaniin.
And they saide vnto Iphtah, Come and be our captaine, that we may fight with the children of Ammon.
7 Yiftaanis, “Isin na jibbitanii mana abbaa kootii na hin ariinee? Amma yommuu rakkattan maaliif na bira dhuftu?” isaaniin jedhe.
Iphtah then answered the Elders of Gilead, Did not ye hate me, and expell me out of my fathers house? how then come you vnto me now in time of your tribulation?
8 Maanguddoonni Giliʼaadis, “Nu sababii kanaaf gara kee dhufneerra; Amoonota waraanuudhaaf nu faana kottu; nu warra Giliʼaad keessa jiraannu hunda irrattis hoogganaa ni taataa” jedhaniin.
Then the Elders of Gilead saide vnto Iphtah, Therefore we turne againe to thee now, that thou mayest goe with vs, and fight against the children of Ammon, and bee our head ouer all the inhabitants of Gilead.
9 Yiftaanis, “Yoo isin akka ani Amoonota waraanuuf biyya kootti na deebiftanii Waaqayyos dabarsee harka kootti isaan kenne, dhugumaan ani hoogganaa keessan nan taʼaa?” jedheen.
And Iphtah said vnto the Elders of Gilead, If ye bring me home againe to fight against the children of Ammon, if the Lord giue them before me, shall I be your head?
10 Maanguddoonni Giliʼaadis deebisanii, “Waaqayyo dhuga baʼaa keenya; dhugumaan nu akkuma ati jette goona” jedhaniin.
And the Elders of Gilead saide to Iphtah, The Lord be witnesse betweene vs, if we doe not according to thy wordes.
11 Kanaafuu Yiftaan maanguddoota Giliʼaad wajjin qajeele; sabni Giliʼaadis hoogganaa fi abbaa duulaa isa godhate. Innis iddoo Miisphaa jedhamutti waan duraan dubbate hundumaa irra deebiʼee fuula Waaqayyoo duratti dubbate.
Then Iphtah went with the Elders of Gilead, and the people made him head and captaine ouer them: and Iphtah rehearsed all his wordes before the Lord in Mizpeh.
12 Yiftaan gara mootii Amoonotaatti ergamoota ergee, “Ati kan biyya keenya waraantuuf rakkina maalii nurraa qabda?” jedheen.
Then Iphtah sent messengers vnto the king of the children of Ammon, saying, What hast thou to doe with me, that thou art come against me, to fight in my lande?
13 Mootiin Amoonotaas ergamoota Yiftaatiin, “Sababii Israaʼeloonni yeroo Gibxii baʼanitti biyya koo kan Arnoonii fi Yaaboq gidduu jiruu fi biyya koo kan hamma Yordaanositti jiru fudhataniif ani waan kana godheera; kanaafuu amma karaa nagaan naa deebisaa” jedhe.
And the King of the children of Ammon answered vnto the messengers of Iphtah, Because Israel tooke my lande, when they came vp from Egypt, from Arnon vnto Iabbok, and vnto Iorden: now therefore restore those lands quietly.
14 Yiftaanis gara mootii Amoonotaatti deebisee ergamoota isaa erge;
Yet Iphtah sent messengers againe vnto the King of the children of Ammon,
15 akkanas jedhe: “Yiftaan akkana jedha: Israaʼel biyya Moʼaab yookaan biyya Amoonota hin fudhanne.
And said vnto him, Thus saith Iphtah, Israel tooke not the lande of Moab, nor the lande of the children of Ammon.
16 Garuu yeroo Gibxii baʼanitti Israaʼeloonni gammoojjii keessa gara Galaana Diimaa, achii immoo gara Qaadesh dhufan.
But when Israel came vp from Egypt, and walked through the wildernesse vnto the redde Sea, then they came to Kadesh.
17 Israaʼelis gara mootii Edoomitti, ‘Akka ani biyya kee keessaan darbu naa eeyyami’ jedhee ergamoota erge; mootiin Edoom garuu hin dhageenye. Gara mootii Moʼaabittis akkasuma ergan; inni illee ni dide. Kanaafuu Israaʼel Qaadesh keessa ture.
And Israel sent messengers vnto the king of Edom, saying, Let me, I pray thee, goe thorowe thy lande: but the King of Edom woulde not consent: and also they sent vnto the King of Moab, but he would not: therefore Israel abode in Kadesh.
18 “Itti aansees gammoojjii keessa darbee biyya Edoomii fi biyya Moʼaab irra naannaʼee karaa baʼa biyya Moʼaabiin darbee gama kaaniin Arnoon cina qubate. Garuu sababii Arnoon daarii Moʼaab turteef isaan biyya Moʼaab hin seenne ture.
Then they went through the wildernesse, and compassed the lande of Edom, and the lande of Moab, and came by the Eastside of the lande of Moab, and pitched on the other side of Arnon, and came not within the coast of Moab: for Arnon was the border of Moab.
19 “Ergasiis Israaʼel Sihoon mooticha Amoorotaa kan Heshboon bulchaa ture sanatti ergamoota ergee, ‘Akka nu biyya kee keessa gara biyya keenyaatti dabarru nuu eeyyami’ jedheen.
Also Israel sent messengers vnto Sihon, King of the Amorites, the King of Heshbon, and Israel said vnto him, Let vs passe, we pray thee, by thy lande vnto our place.
20 Sihoon garuu akka inni karaa biyya isaatiin darbu Israaʼelin hin amanne. Kanaafuu inni namoota isaa walitti qabatee Yaahizaa keessa qubatee Israaʼelin lole.
But Sihon consented not to Israel, that he shoulde goe through his coast: but Sihon gathered all his people together, and pitched in Iahaz, and fought with Israel.
21 “Waaqayyo Waaqni Israaʼelis Sihoonii fi namoota isaa hunda dabarsee harka Israaʼelitti kenne; Israaʼeloonnis jara moʼatan; kanaafuu Israaʼeloonni biyya Amoorota achi jiraatan hundaa fudhatan;
And the Lord God of Israel gaue Sihon and all his folke into the handes of Israel, and they smote them: so Israel possessed all the lande of the Amorites, the inhabitants of that countrey:
22 qabeenya biyya Amoor kan Arnoonii hamma Yaaboqitti akkasumas kan gammoojjii hamma Yordaanositti jiru hunda fudhatan.
And they possessed all the coast of the Amorites, from Arnon vnto Iabbok, and from the wildernesse euen vnto Iorden.
23 “Yoos erga Waaqayyo Waaqni Israaʼel fuula saba Israaʼel duraa Amoorota ariʼee baasee ati fudhachuudhaaf mirga maalii qabdaa?
Nowe therefore the Lord God of Israel hath cast out the Amorites before his people Israel, and shouldest thou possesse it?
24 Ati waan Kemoosh Waaqni kee siif kennu hin fudhattuu? Nus akkasuma waan Waaqayyo Waaqni keenya nuu kenne kam iyyuu ni fudhanna.
Wouldest not thou possesse that which Chemosh thy god giueth thee to possesse? So whomesoeuer the Lord our God driueth out before vs, them will we possesse.
25 Ati Baalaaq mootii Moʼaab ilma Ziphoori sana ni caaltaa? Inni takkumaa Israaʼel waraaneeraa? Yookaan loleeraa?
And art thou nowe farre better then Balak the sonne of Zippor King of Moab? did he not striue with Israel and fight against them,
26 Israaʼeloonni waggaa dhibba sadii Heshboon, Aroʼeer, qubatawwan naannoo sanaatii fi magaalaawwan naannoo Arnoon qabatanii turaniiru. Ati yeroo sanatti maaliif deebiftee hin fudhatin?
When Israel dwelt in Heshbon and in her townes, and in Aroer and in her townes, and in all the cities that are by the coastes of Arnon, three hundreth yeeres? why did ye not then recouer them in that space?
27 Ani yakka sitti hin hojjenne; ati garuu waraana natti kaasuudhaan na miiteerta. Kanas Waaqayyo, abbaan murtii ammuma kana kaʼee Israaʼelootaa fi Amoonota gidduutti murtii haa kennu.”
Wherefore, I haue not offended thee: but thou doest me wrong to warre against me. The Lord the Iudge be iudge this day betweene the children of Israel, and the children of Ammon.
28 Mootiin Amoonotaa garuu ergaa Yiftaan isatti ergeef gurra hin kennine.
Howbeit the King of the children of Ammon hearkened not vnto the wordes of Iphtah, which he had sent him.
29 Kana irratti Hafuurri Waaqayyoo Yiftaa irra buʼe. Innis Giliʼaadii fi Minaasee keessa darbee Miisphaa ishee Giliʼaad keessa jirtu sana keessa qaxxaamuree Amoonotatti duule.
Then the Spirite of the Lord came vpon Iphtah, and he passed ouer to Gilead and to Manasseh, and came to Mizpeh in Gilead, and from Mizpeh in Gilead he went vnto the children of Ammon.
30 Yiftaan akkana jedhee Waaqayyoof wareege; “Yoo ati Amoonota dabarsitee harka kootti kennite,
And Iphtah vowed a vowe vnto the Lord, and said, If thou shalt deliuer the children of Ammon into mine handes,
31 yommuu ani moʼadhee deebiʼutti wanni mana kootii na simachuudhaaf jalqabatti baʼuu kam iyyuu kan Waaqayyoo ti; anis qalma gubamu godhee isa nan dhiʼeessa.”
Then that thing that commeth out of the doores of mine house to meete me, when I come home in peace from the children of Ammon, shall be the Lordes, and I will offer it for a burnt offering.
32 Ergasiis Yiftaan Amoonota waraanuuf baʼe; Waaqayyos isaan dabarsee harka isaatti kenne.
And so Iphtah went vnto the children of Ammon to fight against them, and the Lord deliuered them into his handes.
33 Innis Aroʼeerii jalqabee magaalaawwan digdama hamma naannoo Miiniititti akkasumas hamma Abeel Keraamiimitti argaman guutumaan guutuutti barbadeesse. Amoononnis akkasiin Israaʼelootaaf bulan.
And he smote them from Aroer euen till thou come to Minnith, twentie cities, and so foorth to Abel of the vineyardes, with an exceeding great slaughter. Thus the children of Ammon were humbled before the children of Israel.
34 Yeroo Yiftaan gara Miisphaatti mana isaatti deebiʼetti, intalli isaa dibbee rukutaa sirbaa isa simachuuf baate! Isheen intala tokkittii inni qabu turte. Inni ishee malee ilmas taʼu intala biraa hin qabu ture.
Nowe when Iphtah came to Mizpeh vnto his house, beholde, his daughter came out to meete him with timbrels and daunces, which was his onely childe: he had none other sonne, nor daughter.
35 Innis yommuu ishee argetti wayyaa isaa tarsaasee, “Wayyoo! Yaa mucattii koo! Na balleessite; dhiphina keessa na galchite; ani wareega cabsuu hin dandeenye Waaqayyoof wareegeeraatii” jedhee booʼe.
And when hee sawe her, hee rent his clothes, and saide, Alas my daughter, thou hast brought me lowe, and art of them that trouble me: for I haue opened my mouth vnto the Lord, and can not goe backe.
36 Isheenis akkana jette; “Yaa abbaa ko, ati Waaqayyoof kakatteerta; sababii Waaqayyo diinota kee Amoonota haaloo siif baʼeef, ati waan waadaa galte sana anaan guutadhu.
And she said vnto him, My father, if thou hast opened thy mouth vnto the Lord, doe with me as thou hast promised, seeing that the Lord hath auenged thee of thine enemies the children of Ammon.
37 Garuu waan tokko naa eeyyami; sababii ani siʼachi hin heerumneef akka ani michoota koo wajjin gaarran irra naannaʼee durbummaa kootiif booʼuuf jiʼa lama naa kenni.”
Also she saide vnto her father, Doe thus much for me: suffer me two moneths, that I may goe to the mountaines, and bewaile my virginitie, I and my fellowes.
38 Innis, “Dhaquu dandeessa” jedheen. Akka isheen jiʼa lamaaf deemtus eeyyameef. Isheenis waan siʼachi heerumuu hin dandeenyeef dubarran michoota ishee wajjin gaarranitti ol baatee boosse.
And he sayde, Goe: and he sent her away two moneths: so she went with her companions, and lamented her virginitie vpon the moutaines.
39 Jiʼa lamaa booddees gara abbaa isheetti deebite; innis akkuma wareege sana godhe. Isheen durba turte. Yeroo sanaa jalqabee wanni kun Israaʼeloota biratti bartee taʼee
And after the ende of two moneths, she turned againe vnto her father, who did with her according to his vowe which he had vowed, and she had knowen no man. and it was a custome in Israel:
40 durboonni Israaʼel wagguma waggaan baʼanii guyyaa afur intala Yiftaa namicha Giliʼaad sanaa gaddaan yaadatu.
The daughters of Israel went yere by yere to lament the daughter of Iphtah the Gileadite, foure dayes in a yeere.
