Taariikhdii Labaad 25
1 Oo Amasyaah markuu boqor noqday wuxuu jiray shan iyo labaatan sannadood, oo Yeruusaalem ayuu boqor ku ahaa sagaal iyo labaatan sannadood, oo hooyadiis magaceedana waxaa la odhan jiray Yehoocaddaan tii reer Yeruusaalem.
Amaziah was 25 years old when he became the king [of Judah], and he ruled from Jerusalem for 29 years. His mother was Jehoaddin; she was from Jerusalem.
2 Oo wuxuu sameeyey wax Rabbiga hortiisa ku qumman, laakiinse qalbi daacad ah kuma uu samayn.
Amaziah did many things that pleased Yahweh, but he did not do them enthusiastically.
3 Oo markii boqortooyadii u xoogaysatay ayuu laayay addoommadiisii dilay boqorkii aabbihiis ahaa.
As soon as he was in complete control of his kingdom, he caused to be executed the officials who had murdered his father.
4 Laakiinse carruurtoodii ma uu dilin, wuxuuse yeelay sida ku qoran sharcigii kitaabkii Muuse ku yiil, sidii Rabbigu amray isagoo leh, Aabbayaashu yaanay u dhiman carruurtooda, carruurtuna yaanay u dhiman aabbayaashood, laakiinse nin waluba dembigiisa ha u dhinto.
But he did not command their sons to be executed; he obeyed what was in the laws that Moses had written. In those laws Yahweh had commanded, “People must not be executed because of [what] their children [have done], and children must not be executed for [what] their parents [have done]. People must be executed only for the sins that they themselves have committed.”
5 Oo weliba Amasyaah wuxuu soo wada ururiyey dadkii Yahuudah oo dhan, oo wuxuu u kala hagaajiyey siday reerahoodu kala ahaayeen, oo reer Yahuudah iyo reer Benyaamiin oo dhanna wuxuu taladoodii u dhiibay saraakiil kun kun u taliya iyo kuwa boqor boqol u taliya, oo weliba wuxuu tiriyey intoodii labaatan sannadood jirtay ama ka sii weynayd, waxayna ahaayeen saddex boqol oo kun oo ah rag la doortay, oo dagaalka u bixi kara, oo wada qaadan kara waran iyo gaashaan.
Amaziah summoned the men of [the tribes of] Judah and Benjamin to come to Jerusalem, and there he put them in groups, each clan in a group by themselves. Then he appointed officers to command each group. Some officers commanded 100 men and some commanded 1,000 men. They counted the men who were at least 20 years old; altogether there were 300,000 men. They were all men who were prepared to be in the army, and able to [fight well, ] using spears and shields.
6 Oo weliba boqol kun oo nin oo ah rag xoog badan ayuu dalkii Israa'iil kaga soo kiraystay boqol talanti oo lacag ah.
Amaziah also hired 100,000 capable soldiers from Israel and paid almost four tons of silver for them.
7 Laakiinse nin Ilaah baa isagii u yimid, oo wuxuu ku yidhi, Boqorow, ciidanka Israa'iil yaanay ku raacin, maxaa yeelay, Rabbigu dadka Israa'iil oo reer Efrayim ah oo dhanba lama uu jiro.
But a prophet came to him and said, “Your majesty, you must not allow those soldiers from Israel to march with your soldiers, because Yahweh does not help the people of the tribe of Ephraim or from [anywhere else in] Israel.
8 Laakiinse haddaad doonayso inaad tagto, yeel, oo dagaalka ku adkow, Ilaahse wuxuu kugu tuuri doonaa cadowgaaga hortiisa, maxaa yeelay, Ilaah baa leh xoog uu wax ku caawiyo iyo mid uu wax ku tuuraba.
Even if your soldiers go and fight courageously in battles, God will cause your enemies to defeat you; do not forget that God has the power to help armies or to cause them to be defeated.”
9 Markaasaa Amasyaah wuxuu ku yidhi ninkii Ilaah, Haddaba sidee baannu ka yeelaynaa boqolkii talanti oo aan siiyey ciidanka Israa'iil? Kolkaasaa ninkii Ilaah u jawaabay oo ku yidhi, Rabbigu wuu awoodaa inuu ku siiyo wax intaas ka sii badan.
Amaziah asked that prophet, “If I do that, what about the huge amount of silver that I paid to hire those soldiers from Israel?” The prophet replied, “Yahweh is able to pay you back more money than you paid [to hire those soldiers].”
10 Kolkaasaa Amasyaah soocay ciidankii isaga dalka reer Efrayim uga yimid, si ay dalkoodii ugu noqdaan; sidaas daraaddeed aad bay dadkii Yahuudah ugu cadhoodeen, oo waxay dib ugu noqdeen dalkoodii iyagoo aad u xanaaqsan.
So Amaziah told those soldiers from Israel to return home. They left to go home, but they were very angry with the king of Judah [for not allowing them to stay and fight].
11 Markaasaa Amasyaah isdhiirrigeliyey, oo wuxuu hor kacay dadkiisii, oo tegey xagga Dooxadii Cusbada, oo reer Seciir ayuu ka laayay toban kun oo qof.
Then Amaziah became brave, and he led his army to the Salt Valley. There they killed 10,000 men from the Edom people-group.
12 Oo dadkii Yahuudah toban kun oo kale oo noolnool ayay soo kaxaysteen oo keeneen Selac dusheedii, markaasay Selac dusheeda hoos uga tuureen, oo dhammaantoodna way burbureen.
The army of Judah also captured 10,000 others, and took them to the top of a cliff and threw them all down over the cliff, with the result that their corpses were all smashed to pieces.
13 Laakiinse raggii ciidankii ee Amasyaah dib u diray oo u diiday inay isaga dagaalka u raacaan, waxay weerar ku dhufteen magaalooyinkii dalka Yahuudah, tan iyo Samaariya iyo ilaa Beytxooroon, oo waxay ka laayeen saddex kun oo qof, oo maal badanna way ka dhaceen.
While that was happening, the soldiers from Israel whom Amaziah had sent home after not allowing them to fight along with his soldiers, raided cities and towns in Judea, from Samaria [city] to Beth-Horon [town]. They killed 3,000 people and took away a great amount of valuable things.
14 Haddaba markii Amasyaah ka soo noqday layntii reer Edom dabadeed ayuu keensaday ilaahyadii reer Seciir, oo wuxuu u qotonsaday inay isaga ilaahyo u ahaadaan, oo iyagii buu u sujuuday oo foox u shiday.
When Amaziah returned [to Jerusalem] after his army had slaughtered the soldiers from Edom, he brought the idols that were worshiped by the people of Edom. He set them up to be his own gods. Then he bowed down to [worship] them and offered sacrifices to them.
15 Oo sidaas daraaddeed ayaa Rabbiga cadhadiisii Amasyaah aad ugu kululaatay, markaasuu nebi u soo diray, kaasoo ku yidhi, War maxaad u doonatay dadyowga ilaahyadooda, kuwaasoo aan dadkoodii gacantaada ka samatabbixin?
Because of that, Yahweh was very angry with Amaziah. He sent a prophet to him, who said, “Why do you worship these foreign gods that were not even able to save their own people when your army attacked them?”
16 Oo intuu isaga la hadlayay, ayaa boqorkii ku yidhi, War ma annagaa boqorka lataliyihiisii kaa dhignay? Bes, bal maxaadse u doonaysaa in lagu garaaco? Markaasaa nebigii iska daayay oo wuxuu yidhi, Waxaan ogahay in Ilaah ku talo jiro inuu ku halligo, maxaa yeelay, waxan baad samaysay, oo taladaydiina ma aadan maqlin.
While he was still speaking, the king said to him, “We certainly did not appoint you to be one of my advisors. So stop [talking]! If you say anything more, [I will tell my soldiers to] kill you!” So the prophet said, “I know that God has determined to get rid of you, because you have [begun to] worship idols, and have not heeded my advice.” Then the prophet said nothing more.
17 Markaasaa Amasyaah oo ahaa boqorkii dalka Yahuudah tashaday, oo wuxuu u cid diray Yoo'aash oo ahaa ina Yehoo'aaxaas ina Yeehuu oo ahaa boqorkii dalka Israa'iil, oo wuxuu ku yidhi, Car kaalay aynu iska hor nimaadnee.
Some time later Amaziah, the king of Judah, consulted his advisors. Then he sent a message to Jehoash, the king of Israel. He wrote, “Come here and let’s talk together.”
18 Kolkaasaa Yoo'aash oo ahaa boqorkii dalka Israa'iil u cid diray Amasyaah oo ahaa boqorkii dalka Yahuudah, oo wuxuu ku yidhi, Yamaaruggii Lubnaan ku yiil wuxuu u cid diray geedkii kedarka ah oo Lubnaan ku yiil, oo wuxuu ku yidhi, Gabadhaada sii wiilkaygu ha guursadee, oo waxaa halkaas soo maray bahal Lubnaan joogay, markaasuu yamaaruggii ku joogsaday.
But Jehoash replied to King Amaziah, “One time a thistle growing [in the mountains] in Lebanon sent a message to a cedar tree saying, ‘Let your daughter marry my son.’ But a wild animal in Lebanon came along and trampled the thistle under its feet.
19 Waxaad leedahay, Bal eeg, waxaan laayay reer Edom, oo sidaas daraaddeed waad isla weynaatay, waadna faanaysaa, haddaba gurigaaga iska joog. Bal maxaad belaayo isugu soo jiidaysaa oo aad adiga iyo dadka Yahuudahba u wada dhacaysaan?
[The meaning of what I am saying is that] you are saying to yourself that your army has defeated the army of Edom, so you have become very proud. But you should stay at your home. It would not be good for you to cause trouble, which would result in you and your kingdom of Judah being destroyed.”
20 Laakiinse Amasyaah taas wuu maqli waayay, maxaa yeelay, waxay ka timid xagga Ilaah inuu iyaga cadowgooda gacanta u geliyo, waayo, iyagu waxay doonteen ilaahyadii reer Edom.
But Amaziah refused to heed Jehoash’s message. That happened because God wanted Jehoash’s army to defeat them, because they were worshiping the gods of Edom.
21 Markaasuu Yoo'aash oo ahaa boqorkii dalka Israa'iil soo kacay, oo isagii iyo Amasyaah oo ahaa boqorkii dalka Yahuudah waxay iskaga hor yimaadeen Beytshemesh oo uu dadka Yahuudah leeyahay.
So Jehoash’s army attacked. Their two armies faced each other at Beth-Shemesh [city] in Judah.
22 Oo dadka Israa'iil way ka adkaadeen dadka Yahuudah, oo nin waluba wuxuu u cararay teendhadiisii.
The army of Judah was badly defeated by the army of Israel, and all the soldiers of Judah fled to their homes.
23 Oo Yoo'aash oo ahaa boqorkii dalka Israa'iil ayaa Amasyaah oo ahaa boqorkii dalka Yahuudah, kaasoo ahaa ina Yoo'aash ina Yehoo'aaxaas, ku qabtay Beytshemesh, oo intuu Yeruusaalem u soo kaxeeyey ayuu dumiyey derbigii Yeruusaalem tan iyo iriddii Efrayim iyo ilaa iriddii geeska ahayd, intaasoo ahayd afar boqol oo dhudhun.
King Jehoash’s army also captured King Amaziah there. Then he brought Amaziah to Jerusalem, and his soldiers tore down the wall [that was around the city], from the Ephraim Gate to the Corner Gate. That was a section that was about 600 feet long.
24 Oo wuxuu qaatay dahabkii iyo lacagtii oo dhan, iyo weelashii guriga Ilaah laga helay oo Cobeed Edoom la yiil oo dhan, iyo khasnadiihii guriga boqorka, oo dadna cudhaadh ahaan buu u kaxaystay, markaasuu Samaariya ku noqday.
His soldiers also carried away the gold and silver and other valuable furnishings from the temple which the descendants of Obed-Edom had previously been guarding. They also took away the valuable things in the palace, and they took to Samaria some prisoners whom they had captured.
25 Oo Amasyaah ina Yoo'aash oo ahaa boqorkii dalka Yahuudah wuxuu noolaa shan iyo toban sannadood oo ka dambaysay dhimashadii Yoo'aash ina Yehoo'aaxaas oo ahaa boqorkii dalka Israa'iil.
King Jehoash of Israel died, and King Amaziah of Judah lived for 15 years after that.
26 Haddaba Amasyaah falimihiisii kale, kuwii hore iyo kuwii dambeba, sow kuma qorna kitaabkii boqorradii dalka Yahuudah iyo dalka Israa'iil?
An account of all the other things that Amaziah did while he was the king [of Judah] is written in the scroll called ‘The History of the Kings of Judah and Israel’.
27 Haddaba Amasyaah markuu gees uga leexday Rabbiga lasocodkiisii dabadeed shirqool bay Yeruusaalem ugu sameeyeen, markaasuu Laakiish u cararay, laakiinse Laakiish bay cid uga daba direen, oo halkaasay ku dileen.
From the time that Amaziah started to disobey Yahweh, some men in Jerusalem planned to kill him. He was able to escape to Lachish [city], but those who wanted to kill him sent another group of people to Lachish and killed him there.
28 Markaasay isagii fardo ku keeneen, oo awowayaashiis ayaa lagula aasay magaaladii dalka Yahuudah.
They put his corpse on a horse and brought it back to Jerusalem and buried it where his ancestors [had been buried] in the part of Jerusalem called ‘The City of David’.
