Taariikhdii Labaad 14

1 Markaasaa Abiiyaah dhintay oo la seexday awowayaashiis, oo waxaa lagu aasay magaaladii Daa'uud, oo meeshiisiina waxaa boqor ka noqday wiilkiisii Aasaa, oo wakhtigiisiina dalku wuu xasilloonaa intii toban sannadood ah.

And Abiyah slept with his fathers, and they buried him in the city of David: and Assa his son became king in his stead. In his days the land had repose ten years.

2 Oo Aasaana wuxuu sameeyey wixii Rabbiga Ilaahiisa ah hortiisa ku wanaagsanaa oo ku qummanaa,

And Assa did what is good and right in the eyes of the Lord his God.

3 maxaa yeelay, isagu wuxuu baabbi'iyey meelihii allabariga ee qalaadaa iyo meelihii sarsare, oo tiirarkiina wuu wada jejebiyey, geedihii Asheeraahna wuu wada jaray,

And he removed the altars of the strange [gods], and the high-places, and broke up the statues, and cut down the groves;

4 oo dadkii Yahuudahna wuxuu ku amray inay doondoonaan Rabbiga ah Ilaaha awowayaashood, iyo inay yeelaan sharciga iyo amarka.

And he ordered Judah to seek the Lord the God of their fathers, and to execute the law and the commandment.

5 Oo haddana magaalooyinkii dalka Yahuudah oo dhan wuxuu ka baabbi'iyey meelihii sarsare iyo sanamyadii qorraxda, oo boqortooyaduna isaga hortiisa way ku xasilloonayd.

Also he removed out of all the cities of Judah the high-places and the sun-images: and the kingdom had repose before him.

6 Oo isagu dalka Yahuudahna wuxuu ka dhisay magaalooyin deyr leh, maxaa yeelay, dalku wuu xasilloonaa oo isaguna dagaal ma gelin sannadahaas, waayo, Ilaah baa isaga nasiyey.

And he built fortified cities in Judah; for the land had repose, and no one had war with him in those years; because the Lord had given him rest.

7 Oo wuxuu dadkii Yahuudah ku yidhi, Kaalaya aan magaalooyinkan dhisnee oo aan u yeelno derbiyo, iyo munaarado, iyo irdo, iyo qataarro; dalku weli waa ina hor yaal, maxaa yeelay, waxaynu doondoonnay Rabbiga Ilaaheenna ah; isagaynu doondoonnay, oo isna dhan kasta ayuu inaga nasiyey. Markaasay magaalooyinkii dhiseen, wayna liibaaneen.

Therefore he said unto Judah, Let us build these cities, and surround them with walls, and towers, gates, and bars: the land is yet before us; because we have sought the Lord our God, —we have sought him, and he hath given us rest on every side. So they built and prospered.

8 Oo Aasaana wuxuu lahaa ciidan gaashaammo iyo warmo sita, oo waxaa reer Yahuudah ka soo baxay saddex boqol oo kun, reer Benyaamiinna waxaa ka soo baxay kuwo gaashaammo sita oo qaansooyin xoota oo ah laba boqol iyo siddeetan kun, oo kulligoodna waxay wada ahaayeen rag xoog badan.

And Assa had an army that bore targets and spears, out of Judah three hundred thousand; and out of Benjamin, that bore shields and drew the bow, two hundred and eighty thousand: all these were mighty men of valor.

9 Oo waxaa iyagii ku soo kacay Serax oo ahaa reer Itoobiya isagoo wata ciidan tiradiisu tahay malyuun, iyo saddex boqol oo gaadhifaras, oo isagu wuxuu yimid Maareeshaah.

And there came out against them Zerach the Ethiopian with an army of a thousand times thousand, and three hundred chariots; and he came as far as Mareshah.

10 Markaasaa Aasaa u baxay inuu isaga ka hor tago, oo waxay dagaal isugu diyaariyeen Dooxadii Sefaataah oo Maareeshaah u dhow.

Then went Assa out against him, and they set themselves in battle-array in the valley of Zephathah near Mareshah.

11 Markaasaa Aasaa u qayshaday Rabbiga Ilaahiisa ah oo yidhi, Rabbiyow, adiga mooyaane ma jiro mid u kala hiilin kara kan itaalka badan iyo kan aan xoogga lahayn. Rabbiyow Ilaahayagow, na caawi, waayo, waannu isku kaa hallaynaynaa, oo magacaaga ayaannu dadkan badan ugu soo baxnay. Rabbiyow, waxaad tahay Ilaahayaga, haddaba ninna yuusan kaa adkaan.

And Assa called unto the Lord his God, and said, Lord, nothing can hinder thee to help, whether it be the mighty, or those that have no power: help us, O Lord our God; for on thee do we rely, and in thy name are we come against this multitude. O Lord, thou art our God! no mortal can place a restraint against thee.

12 Oo sidaas daraaddeed Aasaa iyo dadkii Yahuudah hortooda ayaa Rabbigu ku jebiyey kuwii reer Itoobiya, kuwii reer Itoobiyana way carareen.

Thereupon did the Lord strike down the Ethiopians before Assa, and before Judah: and the Ethiopians fled.

13 Markaasaa Aasaa iyo dadkii la socday u eryadeen xagga Geraar, oo waxaa kuwii reer Itoobiya ka dhintay dad faro badan oo iyaga ayan ka soo kaban karin, maxaa yeelay, iyagu waxay ku hor baabbe'een Rabbiga iyo ciidankiisaba, oo weliba waxay kala tageen maal booli ah oo aad u badan.

And Assa and the people that were with him pursued them as far as Gerar: and there fell of the Ethiopians [so many], that they could not recover themselves; for they were broken down before the Lord, and before his camp; and they carried away exceedingly much booty.

14 Oo waxay kaloo wax ku dhufteen magaalooyinkii Geraar ku wareegsanaa oo dhan, waayo, iyaga waxaa ku dhacday Rabbiga cabsidiisii, oo magaalooyinkii oo dhanna way dhaceen, maxaa yeelay, waxaa iyaga ku jiray maal badan.

And they smote all the cities round about Gerar; for the dread of the Lord was upon them: and they plundered all the cities; for abundant spoil was in them.

15 Oo haddana waxay burburiyeen teendhooyinkii xoolodhaqatada, waxayna dhaceen ido faro badan iyo geel. Dabadeedna Yeruusaalem bay ku noqdeen.

And also the tents of [the owners of] cattle did they smite, and they carried away sheep in abundance, and camels, and returned to Jerusalem.
