Abbootii Murtii 2
1 Ergamaan Waaqayyoo Gilgaalii Bookiimitti ol baʼee akkana jedhe; “Ani Gibxii isin baasee biyya ani abbootii keessaniif kennuuf kakadhe sanatti isin fideera. Akkanas nan jedhe; ‘Ani kakuu isin wajjin gale sana gonkumaa hin diigu;
Now the angel of the LORD went up from Gilgal to Bochim and said, “I brought you up out of Egypt and led you into the land that I had promised to your fathers, and I said, ‘I will never break My covenant with you,
2 isinis warra lafa kana irra jiraatan wajjin kakuu hin galinaa; iddoo aarsaa isaanii garuu caccabsaa.’ Taʼus isin naaf hin ajajamne. Isin maaliif waan kana gootan?
and you are not to make a covenant with the people of this land, but you shall tear down their altars.’ Yet you have not obeyed My voice. What is this you have done?
3 Kanaafuu ani amma akka fuula keessan duraa ariʼee isaan hin baafne isinitti nan hima; isaan iddaa isinitti taʼu; waaqonni isaanii immoo kiyyoo isinitti taʼu.”
So now I tell you that I will not drive out these people before you; they will be thorns in your sides, and their gods will be a snare to you.”
4 Yeroo ergamaan Waaqayyoo waan kana Israaʼeloota hundatti dubbatetti namoonni sagalee isaanii ol fudhatanii booʼan;
When the angel of the LORD had spoken these words to all the Israelites, the people lifted up their voices and wept.
5 isaanis iddoo sana Bookiim jedhanii waaman. Achittis Waaqayyoof aarsaa dhiʼeessan.
So they called that place Bochim and offered sacrifices there to the LORD.
6 Erga Iyyaasuun Israaʼeloota gad dhiisee booddee tokkoon tokkoon isaanii biyyattii dhaaluuf gara dhaala ofii isaanii deeman.
After Joshua had dismissed the people, the Israelites went out to take possession of the land, each to his own inheritance.
7 Uummanni bara jireenya Iyyaasuu guutuu fi bara maanguddoota erga inni duʼee as hafanii jiraatanii waan guddaa Waaqayyo Israaʼeliif godhe argan sunis Waaqayyoon tajaajilan.
And the people served the LORD throughout the days of Joshua and of the elders who outlived him, who had seen all the great works that the LORD had done for Israel.
8 Iyyaasuun ilmi Nuuni garbichi Waaqayyoo waggaa dhibba tokkoo fi kudhanitti duʼe.
And Joshua son of Nun, the servant of the LORD, died at the age of 110.
9 Isaanis lafa dhaala isaa Timnaat Herees kan biyya gaaraa Efreemitti karaa kaaba Tulluu Gaʼaashitti argamtu sanatti isa awwaalan.
They buried him in the land of his inheritance, at Timnath-heres in the hill country of Ephraim, north of Mount Gaash.
10 Erga dhaloonni sun guutuun gara abbootii isaaniitti walitti qabamanii booddee dhaloonni Waaqayyoon hin beekin yookaan waan inni saba Israaʼeliif godhe hin beekin kan biraa kaʼe.
After that whole generation had also been gathered to their fathers, another generation rose up who did not know the LORD or the works that He had done for Israel.
11 Israaʼeloonnis fuula Waaqayyoo duratti waan hamaa hojjetan; Baʼaaliinis ni tajaajilan.
And the Israelites did evil in the sight of the LORD and served the Baals.
12 Isaan Waaqayyo Waaqa abbootii isaanii kan Gibxii isaan baase sana ni dhiisan. Waaqota adda addaa kanneen saboota naannoo isaanii jiraatanii duukaa buʼan; ni waaqeffatanis. Waaqayyonis dheekkamsaaf kakaasan;
Thus they forsook the LORD, the God of their fathers, who had brought them out of the land of Egypt, and they followed after various gods of the peoples around them. They bowed down to them and provoked the LORD to anger,
13 isaan isa dhiisanii Baʼaalii fi Ashtooretin waaqeffataniiruutii.
for they forsook Him and served Baal and the Ashtoreths.
14 Waaqayyos Israaʼelootatti dheekkamee saamtota isaan saamanitti dabarsee isaan kenne. Diinota naannoo isaanii kanneen isaan of irraa ittisuu hin dandeenye hundatti isaan gurgure.
Then the anger of the LORD burned against Israel, and He delivered them into the hands of those who plundered them. He sold them into the hands of their enemies all around, whom they were no longer able to resist.
15 Yommuu Israaʼeloonni lolaaf baʼanitti akkuma inni duraan kakate sanatti harki Waaqayyoo isaanitti hammaatee akka isaan moʼataman godha ture. Isaanis rakkina guddaa keessa buʼan.
Wherever Israel marched out, the hand of the LORD was against them to bring calamity, just as He had sworn to them. So they were greatly distressed.
16 Waaqayyos abbootii murtii kanneen saamtota jalaa isaan baasan isaaniif kaase.
Then the LORD raised up judges, who saved them from the hands of those who plundered them.
17 Isaan garuu waaqota biraa wajjin sagaagalanii isaan waaqeffatan malee abbootii murtii sana hin dhaggeeffanne. Karaa abbootiin isaanii Waaqayyoof ajajamuudhaan irra deemaa turan sana irraa dafanii jalʼatan; isaan waan abbootiin isaanii godhan hin goone.
Israel, however, did not listen to their judges. Instead, they prostituted themselves with other gods and bowed down to them. They quickly turned from the way of their fathers, who had walked in obedience to the LORD’s commandments; they did not do as their fathers had done.
18 Waaqayyo yeroo abbaa murtii tokko isaanii kaasetti hamma abbaan murtii sun jirutti isa wajjin jiraatee harka diinota isaanii jalaa isaan baasa ture; Waaqayyo yeroo isaan sababii warra isaan cunqursanii fi warra isaan miidhaniitiin wawwaatanitti garaa laafaaf tureetii.
Whenever the LORD raised up a judge for the Israelites, He was with that judge and saved them from the hands of their enemies while the judge was still alive; for the LORD was moved to pity by their groaning under those who oppressed them and afflicted them.
19 Yommuu abbaan murtii sun duʼu garuu isaan waaqota biraa duukaa buʼuudhaan, tajaajiluu fi isaan waaqeffachuudhaan abbootii isaanii iyyuu caalaa gara hamminaatti deebiʼan. Hojii hamminaatii fi mataa jabina isaanii irraas hin deebiʼan ture.
But when the judge died, the Israelites became even more corrupt than their fathers, going after other gods to serve them and bow down to them. They would not give up their evil practices and stubborn ways.
20 Kanaafuu Waaqayyo Israaʼelitti akka malee dheekkamee akkana jedhe; “Waan sabni kun kakuu ani abbootii isaatiif gale sana cabsee anas dhagaʼuu dideef,
So the anger of the LORD burned against Israel, and He said, “Because this nation has transgressed the covenant I laid down for their fathers and has not heeded My voice,
21 ani siʼachi saboota Iyyaasuun yeroo duʼetti isaan gidduutti dhiise sana isaan duraa ariʼee hin baasu.
I will no longer drive out before them any of the nations Joshua left when he died.
22 Karaa saboota kanaatiinis akka isaan akkuma abbootii isaanii karaa Waaqayyoo eeganii irra deddeebiʼanii fi akka isaan hin eegne ilaaluuf jedhee Israaʼelin nan qora.”
In this way I will test whether Israel will keep the way of the LORD by walking in it as their fathers did.”
23 Kanaafuu Waaqayyo akka saboonni kunneen achumatti hafan eeyyame; harka Iyyaasuuttis dabarsee isaan kennuudhaan dafee achii isaan hin baafne.
That is why the LORD had left those nations in place and had not driven them out immediately by delivering them into the hand of Joshua.
