2 Samuel 19
1 And it was told Joab, Behold, the king weeps and mourns for Absalom.
Yooʼaabittis, “Daawit mootichi Abesaaloomiif booʼuu fi gadduutti jira” jedhamee himame.
2 And the victory that day was [turned] into mourning for all the people; for the people heard say that day, The king is grieved for his son.
Sababii guutummaan loltootaa oduu, “Mootichi ilma isaatiif gaddaa jira” jedhu dhagaʼeef moʼichi gaafa sanaa gaddatti geeddarame.
3 And the people stole away that day into the city, as people steal away when ashamed of fleeing in battle.
Gaafa sana sabni hundis akkuma loltoota moʼatamanii qaanaʼuudhaan baqatanii magaalaa seenaniitti qaanaʼee magaalaa seene.
4 And the king covered his face, and the king cried with a loud voice, My son Absalom! Absalom, my son, my son!
Mootichis fuula isaa haguuggatee, “Yaa ilma koo Abesaaloom! Yaa Abesaaloom ilma ko, yaa ilma koo!” jedhee sagalee ol fudhatee booʼe.
5 And Joab came into the house to the king, and said, Thou hast put to shame this day the faces of all thy servants who have this day saved thy life, and the lives of thy sons and of thy daughters, and the lives of thy wives and the lives of thy concubines;
Yooʼaab gara mootichaa mana ol seenee akkana jedhe; “Ati harʼa fuula namoota kee kanneen lubbuu kee, lubbuu ilmaan keetiitii fi intallan keetii, lubbuu niitota keetiitii fi saajjatoowwan keetii oolchan sana hundaa qaaniidhaan haguugdeerta.
6 in that thou lovest them that hate thee, and hatest those that love thee. For thou hast declared this day, that neither princes nor servants are anything to thee: for to-day I perceive, that if Absalom had lived, and all we had died to-day, then it would have been right in thine eyes.
Ati warra si jibban jaallattee warra si jaallatan immoo jibbiteerta. Ati akka ajajjoota loltoota keetiitii fi namoota isaanii wayittuu hin hedne harʼa mirkaneessiteerta. Harʼa utuu hundi keenya duunee Abesaaloom jiraatee ati akka gammaddu ani nan arga.
7 But now arise, go forth, and speak consolingly to thy servants; for I swear by Jehovah, if thou go not forth, there will not tarry one with thee this night; and that would be worse to thee than all the evil that has befallen thee from thy youth until now.
Amma gad baʼiitii namoota kee jajjabeessi. Yoo ati gad baʼuu baatte akka edana namni tokko iyyuu si biratti hin hafne ani maqaa Waaqayyootiin nan kakadha. Kun immoo rakkina ati ijoollummaa keetii jalqabdee hamma ammaatti keessa dabarte hunda caalaa hammaata.”
8 Then the king arose, and sat in the gate. And they told all the people, saying, Behold, the king is sitting in the gate. And all the people came before the king. Now Israel had fled every man to his tent.
Kanaafuu mootichi kaʼee karra dura taaʼe. Namoonni hundinuus yommuu, “Mootichi karra dura taaʼee jira” jedhamee itti himametti isa bira dhufan. Yeroo sanatti Israaʼeloonni hundi gara mana isaaniitti baqatanii turan.
9 And all the people were at strife throughout the tribes of Israel, saying, The king delivered us out of the hand of our enemies, and he saved us out of the hand of the Philistines; and now he is fled out of the land because of Absalom.
Guutummaa gosoota Israaʼel keessatti namoonni hundinuu akkana jedhanii wal falmaa turan; “Mootichi harka diinota keenyaa jalaa nu baaseera; namni harka Filisxeemotaa jalaa nu baases isuma. Amma garuu inni sababii Abesaaloomiitiif biyyaa baqateera;
10 And Absalom, whom we anointed over us, is dead in battle; and now why are ye silent as to bringing the king back?
Abesaaloom inni nu akka inni bulchaa keenya taʼuuf jennee dibne sun immoo lola irratti duʼeera. Kanaafuu waaʼee mooticha as deebisuu irratti isin maaliif waan tokko hin mariʼanne?”
11 And king David sent to Zadok and to Abiathar the priests, saying, Speak to the elders of Judah saying, Why are ye the last to bring the king back to his house? seeing the speech of all Israel is come to the king, to his house.
Daawit mootichis akkana jedhee ergaa kana Zaadoqii fi Abiyaataar lubootatti erge; “Akkana jedhaatii maanguddoota Yihuudaa gaafadhaa; ‘Wanni guutummaa Israaʼel keessatti odeeffamaa jiru gurra mootichaa qaqqabeeraatii isin maaliif mooticha mana mootummaa isaatti deebisuu irratti duubatti haftani?
12 Ye are my brethren, ye are my bone and my flesh; and why will ye be the last to bring back the king?
Isin obboloota koo, foon kootii fi dhiiga koo ti; yoos mooticha fiduu irratti maaliif duubatti harkifattan ree?’
13 And say to Amasa, Art thou not my bone and my flesh? God do so to me and more also, if thou be not captain of the host before me continually instead of Joab.
Amaasaanis, ‘Ati foonii fi dhiiga koo mitii? Yoo ani ammaa jalqabee iddoo Yooʼaab ajajaa loltoota koo si gochuu baadhe, Waaqni waan hamaa natti haa fidu; waan caalu illee natti haa fidu.’”
14 And he bowed the heart of all the men of Judah as of one man; and they sent to the king, Return, thou and all thy servants.
Mootichis akkuma garaa nama tokkootti garaa namoota Yihuudaa hundaa boojiʼe. Isaanis, “Namoota kee hunda wajjin deebiʼi” jedhanii mootichatti ergan.
15 And the king returned and came as far as the Jordan. And Judah came to Gilgal, to go to meet the king, to conduct the king over the Jordan.
Mootichis biyyatti deebiʼee hamma Yordaanositti dhufe. Namoonni Yihuudaas mooticha simatanii Yordaanosin ceesisanii fiduuf hamma Gilgaalitti dhufan.
16 And Shimei the son of Gera, the Benjaminite, who was of Bahurim, hasted and came down with the men of Judah to meet king David.
Shimeʼiin namichi Bahuuriim ilmi Geeraa kan gosa Beniyaam sunis mooticha simachuuf namoota Yihuudaa wajjin dafee gad buʼe.
17 And there were a thousand men of Benjamin with him, and Ziba the servant of the house of Saul, and his fifteen sons and his twenty servants with him; and they forded the Jordan before the king.
Isa wajjinis Beniyaamota kuma tokko akkasumas Ziibaa tajaajilaa maatii Saaʼol, ilmaan isaa kudha shananii fi hojjettoota isaa digdamatu ture. Isaanis mooticha dursanii Yordaanosin ceʼan.
18 And a ferry boat passed to and fro to carry over the king's household, and to do what he thought good. And Shimei the son of Gera fell down before the king as he was [just] crossing over the Jordan.
Isaanis maatii mootichaa simachuu fi waan inni barbaadu isaaf gochuuf malkaa ceʼan. Shimeʼiin ilmi Geeraa yommuu Yordaanosin ceʼetti mooticha duratti kufee
19 And he said to the king, Let not my lord impute iniquity to me, neither do thou remember that which thy servant did perversely the day that my lord the king went out of Jerusalem, that the king should take it to heart.
akkana isaan jedhe; “Gooftaan koo balleessaa natti hin herregin. Balleessaa garbichi kee yeroo ati gooftaan koo mootichi Yerusaalemii baatetti hojjete garaatti hin qabatin. Mootichi waan sana yaada isaa keessaa haa baasu.
20 For thy servant knows that I have sinned; and behold, I am come the first this day of all the house of Joseph to go down to meet my lord the king.
Ani garbichi kee cubbuu hojjechuu koo beekaatii; harʼa garuu ani mana Yoosef hunda keessaa gooftaa koo mooticha simachuuf nama jalqabaa taʼee dhufeera.”
21 And Abishai the son of Zeruiah answered and said, Should not Shimei be put to death for this, because he cursed Jehovah's anointed?
Abiishaayi ilmi Zeruuyaas, “Shimeʼiin sababii nama Waaqayyo dibe abaareef amma duʼuun isaaf hin maluu?” jedhe.
22 And David said, What have I to do with you, ye sons of Zeruiah, that ye should this day be adversaries to me? Should there any man be put to death this day in Israel? for do not I know that I am this day king over Israel?
Daawit immoo deebisee, “Yaa ilmaan Zeruuyaa anii fi isin maal wal irraa qabna? Isin yeroo ammaa diinota natti taataniirtu! Harʼa namni tokko iyyuu Israaʼel keessatti ajjeefamuu qabaa? Ani guyyaa harʼaa Israaʼel irratti mootii taʼuu koo hin beekuu?” jedhe.
23 And the king said to Shimei, Thou shalt not die. And the king swore to him.
Kanaafuu mootichi Shimeʼiidhaan, “Ati duʼuu hin qabdu” jedhe. Kanas kakaadhaan mirkaneesseef.
24 And Mephibosheth the son of Saul came down to meet the king. Now he had neither washed his feet, nor trimmed his beard, nor washed his clothes, from the day the king departed until the day he came [again] in peace.
Mefiibooshet akaakayyuun Saaʼolis mooticha simachuuf gad buʼe. Inni gaafa mootichi Yerusaalemii baʼee jalqabee hamma mootichi deebiʼutti miilla isaatiif eegumsa barbaachisaa hin goone yookaan areeda hin haaddanne yookaan uffata isaa hin miiccanne ture.
25 And as soon as Jerusalem came to meet the king, the king said to him, Why didst thou not go with me, Mephibosheth?
Yeroo inni mooticha simachuuf Yerusaalemii dhufettis mootichi, “Mefiibooshet, ati maaliif na wajjin hin deemne?” jedhee isa gaafate.
26 And he said, My lord, O king, my servant deceived me; for thy servant said, I will saddle me the ass, and ride thereon, and go with the king; for thy servant is lame.
Innis akkana jedhee deebise; “Yaa gooftaa koo mooticha, ani garbichi kee waanan naafa taʼeef, ‘Akka ani yaabbadhee mooticha faana deemuu dandaʼuuf harreen koo naaf haa feʼamu’ jedheen ture. Ziibaan tajaajilaan koo garuu na gowwoomse.
27 And he has slandered thy servant to my lord the king; but my lord the king is as an angel of God; do therefore what is good in thy sight.
Inni gooftaa koo mooticha durattis garbicha kee maqaa balleesseera; gooftaan koo mootichi akkuma ergamaa Waaqayyoo ti; kanaafuu waan barbaadde hunda godhi.
28 For all my father's house were but dead men before my lord the king; and thou didst set thy servant among them that eat at thine own table. What further right therefore have I? and for what should I cry any more to the king?
Silaa wanni maatiin abbaa kootii hundinuu mooticha irraa argachuu malan duʼa qofa ture. Ati garuu ana garbicha kee warra maaddii kee irraa nyaatan wajjin teessifte. Kana caalaa wanni ani akka naa godhamuuf mooticha gaafachuuf mirga qabu maalii?”
29 And the king said to him, Why speakest thou any more of thy matters? I have said, Thou and Ziba divide the land.
Mootichis, “Maaliif dubbii dheeressita? Ani akka atii fi Ziibaan lafa hunda gargar qooddattan ajajeera” jedheen.
30 And Mephibosheth said to the king, Let him even take all, since my lord the king is come again in peace to his own house.
Mefiibooshet immoo mootichaan, “Amma erga gooftaan koo mootichi nagaan deebiʼee inni waan hunda haa fudhatu” jedhe.
31 And Barzillai the Gileadite came down from Rogelim, and went over the Jordan with the king, to conduct him over the Jordan.
Namichi gosa Giliʼaad kan Barzilaay jedhamu tokkos Rogeliimii gad buʼe; innis mooticha geggeessuuf isa wajjin Yordaanos ceʼe.
32 And Barzillai was very aged, eighty years old; and it was he that had maintained the king while he abode at Mahanaim; for he was a very great man.
Barzilaayiin jaarsa dulloomaa waggaa saddeettama ture. Innis waan nama sooressa tureef yeroo mootichi Mahanayiim jiraatetti waan inni nyaatu dhiʼeessaafii ture.
33 And the king said to Barzillai, Pass thou over with me, and I will maintain thee with me in Jerusalem.
Mootichis Barzilaayiin, “Gamatti na wajjin ceʼiitii na wajjin Yerusaalem jiraadhu; anis sin sooraa” jedhe.
34 And Barzillai said to the king, How many are the days of the years of my life, that I should go up with the king to Jerusalem?
Barzilaayiin garuu mootichaan akkana jedhe; “Ani siʼachi waggaa hammam jiraachuufan mooticha wajjin Yerusaalem dhaqa?
35 I am this day eighty years old: can I discern between good and bad? can thy servant taste what I eat and what I drink? can I hear any more the voice of singing men and singing women? and why should thy servant be yet a burden to my lord the king?
Ani yeroo ammaa waggaa saddeettama guuteera. Ani waan gaarii fi waan hamaa addaan baasuu nan dandaʼaa? Garbichi kee miʼaa nyaataa fi dhugaatii beekaa? Ammas sagalee dhiirotaatii fi dubartoota sirbanii dhagaʼuu dandaʼaa? Yoos garbichi kee maaliif gooftaa koo mootichatti baʼaa dabalamaa taʼa ree?
36 Thy servant will go a little way over the Jordan with the king; and why should the king recompense it to me with this reward?
Garbichi kee mooticha wajjin Yordaanos ceʼee xinnoo ishee ni deema; mootichi garuu maaliif haala kanaan galata naaf deebisa?
37 Let thy servant, I pray thee, turn back again, that I may die in mine own city, by the grave of my father and of my mother. But behold thy servant Chimham: let him go over with my lord the king; and do to him what seems good to thee.
Akka ani yoon duʼe magaaluma kootti awwaala abbaa fi haadha koo biratti awwaalamuuf garbicha kee dhiisi haa deebiʼu. Garbichi kee Kimhaam garuu kunoo ti. Inni gooftaa koo mooticha wajjin haa ceʼu. Atis waan jaallattu kam iyyuu isaaf godhi.”
38 And the king said, Chimham shall go over with me, and I will do to him that which seems good to thee; and whatsoever thou shalt require of me, that will I do for thee.
Mootichis, “Kimhaam na wajjin ni ceʼa; anis waan ati jaallattu kam iyyuu isaaf nan godha; waan ati narraa barbaaddu kam iyyuus siif nan godha” jedhe.
39 And all the people went over the Jordan; and the king went over; and the king kissed Barzillai, and blessed him; and he returned to his own place.
Akkasiin namoonni hundinuu Yordaanosin ceʼan; mootichis ni ceʼe. Mootichis Barzilaayii dhungatee eebbise; Barzilaayiinis gara mana isaatti deebiʼe.
40 And the king went on to Gilgal, and Chimham went on with him; and all the people of Judah conducted the king, and also half the people of Israel.
Yommuu mootichi gara Gilgaalitti darbetti Kimhaam isa wajjin deeme. Loltoonni Yihuudaa hundinuu fi walakkaan loltoota Israaʼel mooticha ceesisan.
41 And behold, all the men of Israel came to the king, and said to the king, Why have our brethren the men of Judah stolen thee away, and have brought the king, and his household, and all David's men with him, over the Jordan?
Yommuu suma namoonni Israaʼel hundinuu gara mootichaa dhufanii, “Obboloonni keenya warri Yihuudaa maaliif nu dhoksanii mootichaa fi maatii isaa, duukaa buutota isa wajjin Yordaanosin ceesisanii fidani?” jedhaniin.
42 And all the men of Judah answered the men of Israel, Because the king is near of kin to me; and why then are ye angry for this matter? have we eaten anything which came from the king, or has he given us any present?
Namoonni Yihuudaa hundis deebisanii namoota Israaʼeliin, “Nu waan mootichi fira dhiigaa nuuf taʼeef waan kana goone. Isin waaʼee waan kanaa maaliif aartu? Nu waan mootichaa keessaa tokko illee nyaanneerraa? Waan tokko illees ofii keenyaaf fudhanneerraa?” jedhan.
43 And the men of Israel answered the men of Judah and said, I have ten parts in the king and I have also more right in David than thou; and why didst thou slight me? and was not my advice the first, to bring back my king? And the words of the men of Judah were harsher than the words of the men of Israel.
Kana irratti namoonni Israaʼel namoota Yihuudaatiin, “Nu mooticha irraa qooda harka kudhan qabna; kana malees nu isin caalaa Daawit irraa mirga qabna. Yoos isin maaliif akkas nu tuffattu ree? Akka mootiin keenya nuuf deebiʼuuf kan duraan dursinee gaafanne nu mitii?” jedhanii deebisan. Garuu deebiin namoonni Yihuudaa deebisan kan Israaʼelootaa irra jabaa ture.
