< Abbootii Murtii 3 >

1 Saboonni Waaqayyo Israaʼeloota waraana Kanaʼaan keessatti deemsifame kam iyyuu irratti hirmaatanii hin beekin hunda qoruuf jedhee idduma isaan turanitti hambise kanneenii dha;
And these are the nations that Jehovah left, to prove Israel by them, all that had not known all the wars of Canaan;
2 innis akka Israaʼeloonni kanaan dura waraana keessatti hirmaatanii hin beekin muuxannoo argataniif waan kana godhe;
only that the generations of the children of Israel might know war by learning it, at the least those who before had known nothing thereof:
3 kanneen utuu hin baʼin achumatti hafanis: bulchitoota Filisxeemotaa shanan, Kanaʼaanota hunda, Siidoonotaa fi Hiiwota Tulluu Baʼaal Hermoonii jalqabanii hamma balbala Hamaatitti gaarran Libaanoon gubbaa jiraatanii dha.
five lord ships of the Philistines, and all the Canaanites, and the Sidonians, and the Hivites that dwell on mount Lebanon; from mount Baal-Hermon unto the entering into Hamath.
4 Isaan kunneen warra Israaʼeloonni ajaja Waaqayyoo kan inni karaa Museetiin abbootii isaaniif kennee ture sana eeguu fi eeguu baachuu isaanii ittiin qoramanii ilaalamaniif hambifamanii dha.
And they were to prove Israel by them, to know whether they would obey the commandments of Jehovah, which he commanded their fathers by the hand of Moses.
5 Kanaafuu Israaʼeloonni Kanaʼaanota, Heetota, Amoorota, Feerzota, Hiiwotaa fi Yebuusota gidduu jiraatan.
And the children of Israel dwelt among the Canaanites: Hittites and Amorites and Perizzites and Hivites and Jebusites;
6 Isaanis intallan jaraa fuudhan; intallan ofii isaanii immoo ilmaan isaaniitti heerumsiisan; waaqota isaaniis ni waaqeffatan.
and they took their daughters as wives, and gave their daughters to their sons, and served their gods.
7 Israaʼeloonni fuula Waaqayyoo duratti waan hamaa hojjetan; Waaqayyo Waaqa isaanii irraanfatanii Baʼaalii fi Asheeraa waaqeffatan.
And the children of Israel did evil in the sight of Jehovah, and forgot Jehovah their God, and served the Baals and the Asherahs.
8 Aariin Waaqayyo Israaʼelootatti bobaʼe; kanaafuu mootii Phaadaan Arraam Kuushan-Rishaataayimitti dabarsee isaan gurgure; Israaʼeloonnis waggaa saddeeti isa jalatti bulan.
And the anger of Jehovah was hot against Israel, and he sold them into the hand of Chushan-rishathaim king of Mesopotamia; and the children of Israel served Chushan-rishathaim eight years.
9 Waaqayyo garuu yeroo isaan gara isaatti iyyatanitti nama isaan furu tokko jechuunis obboleessa Kaaleb quxisuu, Otniiʼeel ilma Qenaz sana akka inni isaan furuuf kaaseef.
And the children of Israel cried to Jehovah; and Jehovah raised up a saviour to the children of Israel, who saved them, Othniel the son of Kenaz, Caleb's younger brother.
10 Hafuurri Waaqayyoo isa irra buʼe; kanaafuu inni abbaa murtii Israaʼelootaa taʼee duulaaf baʼe. Waaqayyos Kuushan-Rishaataayim mooticha Phaadaan Arraam sana dabarsee harka Onniiʼelitti kenne; innis isa moʼate.
And the Spirit of Jehovah was upon him, and he judged Israel; and he went out to war, and Jehovah gave Chushan-rishathaim king of Syria into his hand; and his hand prevailed against Chushan-rishathaim.
11 Kanaafuu biyyi sun hamma Otniiʼeel ilmi Qenaz duʼutti waggaa afurtama nagaa argate.
And the land had rest forty years; and Othniel the son of Kenaz died.
12 Ammas Israaʼeloonni fuula Waaqayyoo duratti waan hamaa hojjetan; sababii isaan waan hamaa kana hojjetaniif Waaqayyo akka Egloon mootiin Moʼaab harka isaa isaanitti cimsuuf dabarsee isaan kenne.
And the children of Israel again did evil in the sight of Jehovah; and Jehovah strengthened Eglon the king of Moab against Israel, because they did evil in the sight of Jehovah.
13 Innis Amoonotaa fi Amaaleqoota walitti qabatee Israaʼeloota waraane; isaanis Magaalaa Meexxii qabatan.
And he gathered to him the children of Ammon and Amalek and went and smote Israel, and they took possession of the city of palm-trees.
14 Israaʼeloonni waggaa kudha saddeet Egloon mootii Moʼaab jalatti bulan.
And the children of Israel served Eglon the king of Moab eighteen years.
15 Israaʼeloonni ammas gara Waaqayyootti iyyatan; innis nama isaan furu tokko jechuunis Eehuud nama harka bitaachaa, ilma Geeraa sana gosa Beniyaam keessaa isaanii kaase. Israaʼeloonnis akka inni Egloon mootii Moʼaab sanaaf gibira geessu Naaʼodin ergan.
And the children of Israel cried to Jehovah, and Jehovah raised them up a saviour, Ehud the son of Gera, the Benjaminite, a man left-handed. And by him the children of Israel sent a gift to Eglon king of Moab.
16 Eehuudis goraadee gama lamaan qara qabu kan meetira walakkaa dheeratu tolfatee uffata isaa jalaan tafa mirgaatti hidhate.
And Ehud made him a sword having two edges, it was of a cubit length; and he girded it under his raiment upon his right hip.
17 Gibira sana Egloon mooticha Moʼaab namicha akka malee furdaa ture sanaaf dhiʼeesse.
And he brought the gift to Eglon king of Moab; now Eglon was a very fat man.
18 Naaʼod erga gibira sana dhiʼeessee booddee namoota baataniifii dhufan geggeesse.
And it came to pass when he had ended offering the gift, he sent away the people that had borne the gift.
19 Inni garuu iddoo dhagaan baafamu kan Gilgaal biratti argamu bira gaʼee duubatti deebiʼuudhaan, “Yaa mootii ani waan dhoksaatti sitti himu tokko qaba” jedhe. Mootichis, “Calʼisaa!” jedhe; warri isa bira turan hundinuus isa dhiisanii baʼan.
But he turned from the graven images that were by Gilgal, and said, I have a secret word unto thee, O king. And he said, Be silent! And all that stood by him went out from him.
20 Utuu mootichi kutaa mana isaa iddoo qabbanaaʼaa tokko kophaa isaa taaʼee jiruu Eehuud itti dhiʼaatee, “Ani ergaa Waaqa biraa siif ergame qaba” jedheen. Egloonis teessoo isaa irraa ol kaʼe;
And Ehud came to him; now he was sitting in the cool upper-chamber, which was for him alone. And Ehud said, I have a word from God unto thee. And he arose from the seat.
21 Eehuud harka isaa bitaa diriirsee tafa mirga isaa irraa goraadee luqqifatee garaa mootichaa keessa fullaase.
Then Ehud put forth his left hand, and took the sword from his right hip, and thrust it into his belly;
22 Qabannoon isaas utuu hin hafin garaa seenee sibiilli isaa duubaan baʼe. Naaʼod goraadicha garaa mootichaa keessaa hin buqqifne; moorris goraadee sana haguugee ture.
and the haft also went in after the blade, and the fat closed upon the blade; for he did not draw the sword out of his belly, and it came out between the legs.
23 Ergasiis Eehuud Egloonitti balbala cufee karaa borootiin baʼee qajeele.
And Ehud went out into the portico, and shut the doors of the upper-chamber upon him, and bolted them.
24 Erga Eehuud deemee booddee tajaajiltoonni mootichaa dhufan; balbala kutaa mana ol aanuus akkuma inni cufamee jirutti argan. Isaanis, “Tarii inni mana boolii gad taaʼee jira taʼa” jedhan.
And when he was gone out, the servants of the [king] came and saw, and behold, the doors of the upper-chamber were bolted. And they said, Surely he is covering his feet in the summer chamber.
25 Hamma dadhabanittis eegan; garuu waan inni utuu balbala hin banin tureef furtuu fudhatanii balbala banan. Kunoo gooftaan isaanii duʼee lafa irra diriiree ture.
And they waited till they were ashamed; and behold, he opened not the doors of the upper-chamber, and they took the key, and opened [them], and behold, their lord lay dead on the earth.
26 Utuma isaan dhaabatanii eegaa jiranuu Eehuud fagaatee deeme. Karaa lafa dhagaan itti soofamuutiin darbee gara Seʼiiraatti baqate.
And Ehud had escaped while they lingered, and passed beyond the graven images, and escaped to Seirah.
27 Innis yommuu achi gaʼetti biyya gaaraa Efreem keessatti malakata afuufe; Israaʼeloonnis hooggantummaa isaatiin biyya gaaraa sana irraa isa wajjin gad buʼan.
And it came to pass when he was come, that he blew a trumpet in the hill-country of Ephraim, and the children of Israel went down with him from the hill-country, and he before them.
28 Eehuudis, “Diina keessan Moʼaabin Waaqayyo dabarsee harka keessanitti isinii kenneeraatii na duukaa buʼaa!” jedheen. Isaanis malkaa Yordaanos kan gara Moʼaabitti geessu sana qabatanii nama tokko illee achiin darbuu dhowwan.
And he said to them, Follow after me, for Jehovah has delivered your enemies the Moabites into your hand. And they went down after him, and took the fords of the Jordan toward Moab, and suffered no one to pass over.
29 Yeroo sanatti Moʼaabota hundi isaanii jajjaboo fi humna qabeeyyii taʼan kuma kudhan fixan; namni tokko iyyuu isaan jalaa hin baane.
And they slew the Moabites at that time, about ten thousand men, all fat, and all men of valour, and not a man escaped.
30 Gaafa sana Moʼaab harka Israaʼelitti galfamte; biyyattiinis waggaa saddeettamaaf nagaa argatte.
And Moab was subdued that day under the hand of Israel. And the land had rest eighty years.
31 Eehuuditti aanee Shamgaar ilmi Anaat kaʼe; innis ulee ittiin qotiyyoo tuttuqaniin Filisxeemota dhibba jaʼa fixe. Akkasiinis Israaʼeloota baraare.
And after him was Shamgar the son of Anath; and he smote the Philistines, six hundred men, with an ox-goad. And he also delivered Israel.
