2 Chronicles 14
1 And Abia slept with his fathers, and they buried him in the city of David: and Asa his son reigned in his stead: in his days the land was quiet ten years.
Abiyaanis abbootii ofii isaa wajjin boqotee Magaalaa Daawit keessatti awwaalame. Ilmi isaa Aasaan iddoo isaa buʼee mootii taʼe; bara isaa keessas biyyattiin waggaa kudhan nagaadhaan jiraatte.
2 And Asa did that which was good and pleasing in the sight of his God, and he destroyed the altars of foreign worship, and the high places.
Aasaan waan fuula Waaqayyo Waaqa isaa duratti gaarii fi qajeelaa taʼe hojjete.
3 And broke the statues, and cut down the groves.
Innis iddoowwan aarsaa waaqota ormaa fi iddoowwan sagadaa kanneen gaarran irraa ni diige; soodduuwwan dhagaa fi siidaawwan Aasheeraa ni caccabse.
4 And he commanded Juda to seek the Lord the God of their fathers, and to do the law, and all the commandments.
Akka sabni Yihuudaa Waaqayyo Waaqa abbootii isaa barbaadu, akka seera isaa fi ajaja isaaf bulu ni ajaje.
5 And he took away out of all the cities of Juda the altars, and temples, and reigned in peace.
Magaalaawwan Yihuudaa hunda keessaas iddoowwan sagadaa kanneen gaarran irraa fi iddoowwan aarsaa ixaanaa balleesse; mootummaanis isa jalatti nagaadhaan ni jiraate.
6 He built also strong cities in Juda, for he was quiet, and there had no wars risen in his time, the Lord giving peace.
Innis waan biyyattiin nagaa argatteef Yihuudaa keessatti magaalaawwan dallaa jabaa qaban ni ijaare. Sababii Waaqayyo boqonnaa isaaf kenneef waggoota sana keessa namni tokko iyyuu lola isatti hin kaafne.
7 And he said to Juda: Let us build these cities, and compass them with walls, and fortify them with towers, and gates, and bars, while all is quiet from wars, because we have sought the Lord the God of our fathers, and he hath given us peace round about. So they built, and there was no hinderance in building.
Innis namoota Yihuudaan akkana jedhe; “Kottaa nu magaalaawwan kanneen haa ijaarru; dallaa gamoo, cufaa fi danqaraawwan qabu itti naannessinee haa ijaarru; sababii nu Waaqayyo Waaqa keenya barbaanneef lafti kun ammas keenyuma; nu isa barbaanne; innis karaa hundaan boqonnaa nuuf kenne.” Isaan ni ijaaran; hojiin isaaniis ni milkaaʼeef.
8 And Asa had in his army of men that bore shields and spears of Juda three hundred thousand, and of Benjamin that bore shields and drew bows, two hundred and eighty thousand, all these were most valiant men.
Aasaan namoota Yihuudaa kanneen gaachana gurguddaa fi eeboo qabatan kuma dhibba sadii, namoota Beniyaam kanneen gaachana xixinnaa fi xiyyawwan qabatan kuma dhibba lamaa fi saddeettama qaba ture. Isaan kunneen hundi loltoota ciccimoo turan.
9 And Zara the Ethiopian came out against them with his army of ten hundred thousand men, and with three hundred chariots: and he came as far as Maresa.
Zeraan namichi Itoophiyaa tokko immoo loltoota miliyoona tokkoo fi gaariiwwan dhibba sadii fudhatee hamma Maareeshaatti isaanitti ni duule.
10 And Asa went out to meet him, and set his army in array for battle in the vale of Sephata, which is near Maresa:
Aasaanis isatti baʼe; isaanis Sulula Zefaataa keessatti Maareeshaa iddoo lolaa qabatan.
11 And he called upon the Lord God, and said: O Lord, there is no difference with thee, whether thou help with few, or with many: help us, O Lord our God: for with confidence in thee, and in thy name, we are come against this multitude. O Lord thou art our God, let not man prevail against thee.
Kana irratti Aasaan Waaqayyo Waaqa isaa waammatee akkana jedhe; “Yaa Waaqayyo, kan akka kee namoota humna hin qabne gargaaree namoota jajjaboo jalaa baasu tokko iyyuu hin jiru. Yaa Waaqayyo Waaqa keenya, nu sitti of kennineerraatii nu gargaari; maqaa keetiinis waraana akka malee guddaa kanatti duulleerra. Yaa Waaqayyo ati Waaqa keenya; akka namni sitti cimuuf ofitti hin dhiisin.”
12 And the Lord terrified the Ethiopians before Asa and Juda: and the Ethiopians fled.
Waaqayyos fuula Aasaatii fi Yihuudaa duraa namoota Itoophiyoota ni dhaʼe; namoonni Itoophiyaas ni baqatan.
13 And Asa and the people that were with him pursued them to Gerara: and the Ethiopians fell even to utter destruction, for the Lord slew them, and his army fought against them, and they were destroyed. And they took abundance of spoils,
Aasaa fi loltoonni isaas hamma Geraaraatti isaan ariʼan. Waan Baayʼeen isaanii dhumaniif namoonni Itoophiyaa deebiʼanii bayyanachuu hin dandeenye; isaan fuula Waaqayyoo fi fuula loltoota isaa duratti barbadeeffamaniiruutii. Namoonni Yihuudaas boojuu baayʼee fudhatanii deebiʼan.
14 And they took all the cities round about Gerara: for a great fear was come upon all men: and they pillaged the cities, and carried off much booty.
Isaan sababii sodaachisni guddaan Waaqayyo biraa jaratti dhufeef gandoota naannoo Geraaraa jiran hunda barbadeessan. Isaanis sababii wantoonni boojiʼaman hedduun achi turaniif gandoota kanneen ni saaman.
15 And they destroyed the sheepcotes, and took an infinite number of cattle, and of camels: and returned to Jerusalem.
Akkasumas qubatawwan tiksootaa dhaʼanii karra hoolotaa fi reʼoota akka malee hedduu fi gaalawwan illee boojiʼanii fudhatan. Ergasiis Yerusaalemitti dachaʼan.
