2 Chronicles 14

1 Abijah died and was buried in the City of David. His son Asa took over as king. For ten years of his reign the country was at peace.

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.

2 Asa did what was good and right in the Lord's sight.

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

3 He took down the foreign altars and high places, smashed their sacred pillars, and cut down the Asherah poles.

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

4 He ordered Judah to worship the Lord, the God of their forefathers, and to observe the law and the commandments.

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

5 He also took down the high places and the incense altars from all the towns of Judah. Under his rule the kingdom was at peace.

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

6 Because the country was at peace he was able to rebuild the fortified towns of Judah. There were no wars during these years because the Lord had granted him peace.

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.

7 Asa told the people of Judah, “Let us build up these towns and surround them with walls and towers and barred gates. The land is still ours, because we continue to worship the Lord our God. We worship him, and he has given us peace from all our enemies.” So they began the building projects, and completed them successfully.

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.

8 Asa had an army made up of three hundred thousand men from Judah who carried large shields and spears, and two hundred eighty thousand men from Benjamin who carried regular shields and bows. All of them were brave warriors.

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.

9 Zerah the Ethiopian attacked them with an army of a thousand times a thousand men and three hundred chariots, advancing as far as Mareshah.

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.

10 Asa went out to confront him, lining up for battle in the Valley of Zephathah at Mareshah.

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

11 Asa called out for help to the Lord his God: “Lord, there is no one apart from you who can help the powerless against the powerful. Please help us, Lord our God, for we trust in you. We have come against this horde because we stand for you, Lord. You are our God. Do not let a mere human being beat you.”

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.

12 The Lord struck the Ethiopians in front of Asa and Judah, and the Ethiopians ran away.

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

13 Asa and his army chased them as far as Gerar. The Ethiopians were killed—there were none who survived, for they were caught between the Lord and his army. The men of Judah carried off a large amount of plunder.

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.

14 They also attacked all the towns around Gerar, because the inhabitants were terrified of the Lord. The men of Judah took a large amount of plunder from all the towns.

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.

15 Then they attacked the camps of the herdsmen and took many sheep and camels. Then they went back to Jerusalem.

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