< Taariikhdii Labaad 15 >
1 Markaasaa Ruuxii Ilaah wuxuu ku soo degay Casaryaah oo ahaa ina Codeed,
The Spirit of God came upon Azariah the son of Oded.
2 oo intuu u soo baxay inuu Aasaa ka hor tago ayuu ku yidhi, Aasaa, iyo dadkii Yahuudah iyo Benyaamiin oo dhammow, i maqla. Rabbigu wuu idinla jiraa intaad isaga la jirtaan, oo haddaad isaga doondoontaanna waad heli doontaan, laakiinse haddaad isaga ka tagtaan, isna wuu idinka tegi doonaa.
He went out to meet Asa and said to him, “Listen to me, Asa and all of Judah and Benjamin. The Lord is with you while you are with him. If you look for him, you will find him; but if you abandon him, he will abandon you.
3 Haddaba intii wakhti dheer ah dadka Israa'iil ma ay haysan Ilaaha runta ah, iyo wadaad iyaga wax bara, iyo sharci toona,
For many years Israel was without the true God, without a priest to teach them, and without the law.
4 laakiinse markay cidhiidhi galeen ayay u soo jeesteen oo doondooneen Rabbiga ah Ilaaha reer binu Israa'iil, wayna heleen.
But when they were in trouble they returned to the Lord, the God of Israel—they looked for him, and they found him.
5 Oo waayahaas oo dhanna nabadu uma jirin kii dibadda u baxa iyo kii gudaha soo gala toona, laakiinse dadka dalalka deggan oo dhan waxaa kor saarnaa dhibaatooyin waaweyn.
During those times travel was dangerous, for all the inhabitants of the lands were in great turmoil. People everywhere had terrible problems.
6 Oo iyagii way kala burbureen, oo quruumuba quruun bay ka gees noqotay, magaalona magaalay ka gees noqotay, waayo, Ilaah baa ku dhibay cidhiidhi oo dhan.
Nation fought nation, and town fought town, for God threw them into a panic with all kinds of trouble.
7 Laakiinse idinku xoogaysta oo gacmihiinnu yay debcin, waayo, shuqulkiinna waa laydiinka abaalgudi doonaa.
But you need to be strong, not weak, for you will be rewarded for the work you do.”
8 Oo Aasaana markuu maqlay erayadaas iyo waxsheegiddii Nebi Codeed ayuu sii dhiirranaaday, oo dalka Yahuudah iyo kan Benyaamiin oo dhan iyo magaalooyinkii uu ka qabsaday dalka buuraha leh oo reer Efrayim wuu ka wada fogeeyey karaahiyadii, oo weliba wuxuu cusboonaysiiyey meeshii allabariga ee Rabbiga oo ku hor tiil balbalada Rabbiga.
When Asa heard these words of prophecy from Azariah the prophet, son of Oded, he was encouraged. He removed the vile idols from the whole territory of Judah and Benjamin and from the towns he had captured in the hill country of Ephraim. Then he repaired the altar of the Lord that stood in front of the porch of the Lord's Temple.
9 Markaasuu soo wada shiriyey dadkii Yahuudah iyo dadkii Benyaamiin iyo kuwii iyaga la degganaa oo ka yimid reer Efrayim iyo reer Manaseh iyo reer Simecoonba, waayo, isagay ku soo darmeen iyagoo tiro badan, markay arkeen in Rabbiga Ilaahiisa ahu uu isaga la jiro.
Then Asa summoned all of Judah and Benjamin, along with those Israelites from the tribes of Ephraim, Manasseh, and Simeon who were living among them, for many people had deserted Israel and come over to Asa when they saw that the Lord his God was with him.
10 Sidaas daraaddeed waxay ku soo urureen Yeruusaalem sannaddii shan iyo tobnaad oo boqortooyadii Aasaa bisheedii saddexaad.
They gathered in Jerusalem in the third month of the fifteenth year of Asa's reign.
11 Oo maalintaas waxay Rabbiga ugu allabaryeen toddoba boqol oo dibi iyo toddoba kun oo neef oo ido ah oo ka mid ah dhicii ay keeneen.
That day they sacrificed to the Lord seven hundred oxen and seven thousand sheep from the plunder they had brought back.
12 Oo waxay axdi ku galeen inay Rabbiga Ilaaha awowayaashooda ah ku doondoonaan qalbigooda oo dhan iyo naftooda oo dhan,
Then they made an agreement to conscientiously and completely follow the Lord, the God of their forefathers.
13 iyo in la dilo ku alla kii aan doondoonin Rabbiga ah Ilaaha reer binu Israa'iil, hadduu yar yahay iyo hadduu weyn yahay, ama hadduu nin yahay iyo hadday naag tahayba.
They also agreed that anyone who refused to follow the Lord, the God of Israel, would be put to death, whether young or old, man or woman.
14 Oo waxay Rabbiga ugu dhaarteen cod weyn iyo qaylo iyo turumbooyin iyo buunan.
They declared their oath with a loud shout, accompanied by trumpets and blasts from rams' horns.
15 Oo dadkii Yahuudah oo dhammu way ku reyreeyeen dhaartii, maxaa yeelay, qalbigooda oo dhan ayay ku dhaarteen, oo waxay isaga ku doondooneen xiisahooda oo dhan, wayna heleen, oo Rabbiguna hareerahooda oo dhan wuu ka nasiyey.
The whole of Judah was happy at the oath they had conscientiously sworn. They looked for him sincerely, and they found him. The Lord gave them peace from all their enemies.
16 Oo weliba Macakaah oo ahayd Boqor Aasaa hooyadiis boqoradnimadii wuu ka dejiyey, maxaa yeelay, waxay sanam karaahiya ah u samaysay geed Asheeraah, oo Aasaa sanamkeedii wuu jebiyey oo wuxuu ka dhigay boodh, wuxuuna ku gubay durdurka Qidroon agtiisa.
King Asa also removed Maacah from her position as queen mother for making an offensive Asherah pole. Asa cut down her vile idol, crushed it up, and burned it in the Kidron Valley.
17 Laakiinse meelihii sarsare dalka Israa'iil lagama baabbi'in, habase yeeshee Aasaa qalbigiisu wuu qummanaa cimrigiisii oo dhan.
While the high places were not removed from Israel, Asa was completely devoted to the Lord all his life.
18 Oo gurigii Ilaah wuxuu soo geliyey alaabtii aabbihiis quduuska ka dhigay iyo alaabtii uu isaga qudhiisu quduuska ka dhigay, waxayna ahayd lacag iyo dahab iyo weelal.
He brought into God's Temple the silver and gold articles he and his father had dedicated.
19 Oo dagaal dambena ma jirin ilaa sannaddii shan iyo soddonaad ee Aasaa boqornimadiisii.
There was no more war until the thirty-fifth year of Asa's reign.
