2 Chronicles 30
1 Then Hezekiah sent an announcement to everyone in Israel and Judah, and also sent letters to Ephraim and Manasseh, inviting them to come to the Lord's Temple in Jerusalem to celebrate the Passover of the Lord, the God of Israel.
Hisqiyaas akka isaan Waaqayyo Waaqa Israaʼeliif Faasiikaa ayyaaneffachuuf jedhanii gara Yerusaalem, gara mana qulqullummaa Waaqayyoo dhufaniif Israaʼelii fi Yihuudaa hundatti ergaa erge; Efreemii fi Minaaseetti immoo xalayaa barreesse.
2 The king and his officials and the whole assembly in Jerusalem had decided to observe the Passover in the second month,
Mootichii fi qondaaltonni isaa akkasumas waldaan Yerusaalem keessa jiru hundi jiʼa lammaffaatti Faasiikaa ayyaaneffachuuf murteessan.
3 because they hadn't been able to observe it at the usual time since not enough priests had purified themselves and the people hadn't had time to get to Jerusalem.
Isaan sababii luboonni of qulqulleessan lakkoobsaan gaʼoo hin taʼinii fi sababii namoonni Yerusaalemitti walitti hin qabaminiif yeroo barbaachisaa taʼetti Faasiikaa ayyaaneffachuu hin dandeenye.
4 The plan seemed right to both the king and the whole assembly.
Karoorri sunis mootichaa fi waldaa sana guutuu ni gammachiise.
5 So they decided to send an announcement to everyone in Israel, from Beersheba to Dan, inviting people to come and keep the Passover to the Lord, the God of Israel, in Jerusalem, for many had not done as the Law required.
Isaanis akka namoonni Waaqayyo Waaqa Israaʼeliif Faasiikaa ayyaaneffachuuf jedhanii gara Yerusaalem dhufaniif Bersheebaa hamma Daanitti Israaʼel hunda keessa labsii labsuuf murteessan. Ayyaanni Faasiikaa akka barreeffametti iddoo namoonni hedduun jiranitti ayyaaneffamee hin beekuutii.
6 So messengers went to all of Israel and Judah carrying letters from the king and his officials and with the king's authorization. They said, “Children of Israel, return to the Lord, the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, so that he may return to you who are left, who have escaped the oppression of the kings of Assyria.
Ergamoonnis ajaja mootichaatiin xalayaa mootichaa fi qondaaltota isaa biraa ergame fuudhanii guutummaa Israaʼelii fi Yihuudaa keessa qajeelan; xalayaan sunis akkana jedha: “Yaa saba Israaʼel, akka inni gara keessan gara warra haftanii harka mootota Asoor jalaa baatan sanaatti deebiʼuuf gara Waaqayyo Waaqa Abrahaam, Waaqa Yisihaaqii fi Waaqa Israaʼelitti deebiʼaa.
7 Don't be like your fathers and those of you who sinned against the Lord, the God of your forefathers He made them into something horrifying, as you can see.
Akka abbootii keessanii fi akka obboloota keessan kanneen inni sababii isaan Waaqayyo Waaqa abbootii isaaniif amanamuu didaniif akkuma isin argitan kana waan fafaa isaan godhe sanaa hin taʼinaa.
8 So don't be proud and obstinate like your fathers, but give yourselves to the Lord and come to his sanctuary, which he has made holy forever, and serve the Lord your God, that his fierce anger may no longer fall on you.
Isin akka abbootii keessanii mata jabeeyyii hin taʼinaa; Waaqayyootti harka kennadhaa. Gara iddoo qulqullummaa isaa kan inni bara baraan qulqulleesse sanaa kottaa. Akka dheekkamsi isaa sodaachisaan sun isin irraa deebiʼuuf Waaqayyo Waaqa keessan tajaajilaa.
9 If you come back to the Lord, your relatives and children will receive mercy from their captors and will return to this land. For the Lord your God is gracious and merciful. He will not reject you if you come back to him.”
Sababii Waaqayyo Waaqni keessan arjaa fi gara laafessa taʼeef isin yoo gara Waaqayyootti deebitan obboloonni keessanii fi ijoolleen keessan warra isaan boojiʼan biratti gara laafina ni argatu; biyya kanattis ni deebiʼu. Isin yoo gara isaatti deebitan inni fuula isaa isin irraa hin garagalfatu.”
10 The messengers went from town to town all over the land of Ephraim and Manasseh as far as Zebulun; but the people laughed at them and mocked them.
Ergamoonnis Efreemii fi Minaasee keessa magaalaa tokkoo gara magaalaa kaaniitti naannaʼaa hamma Zebuuloonitti deeman; namoonni garuu isaan tuffatan; itti qoosanis.
11 Only some men from Asher, Manasseh, and Zebulun weren't too proud to go to Jerusalem.
Namoonni Aasheer, kan Minaasee fi kan Zebuuloon tokko tokko garuu gad of qabanii Yerusaalem dhaqan.
12 At this time the power of God was helping the people in Judah to all have the same desire to follow the orders of the king and his officials, as indicated by the word of the Lord.
Akka isaan waan mootichii fi qondaaltonni isaa akkuma dubbii Waaqayyootti ajajanii turan sana hojjetaniif harki Waaqaa yaada tokko isaanii kennuuf akkasuma Yihuudaa irra ture.
13 Many people gathered in Jerusalem to celebrate the Feast of Unleavened Bread in the second month—a really large crowd.
Tuunni akka malee guddaan tokko jiʼa lammaffaatti Ayyaana Maxinoo ayyaanessuuf Yerusaalem keessatti walitti qabame.
14 They went and removed the pagan altars in Jerusalem as well as the incense altars and threw them into the Kidron Valley.
Isaanis iddoowwan aarsaa kanneen Yerusaalem keessa turan bubuqqisanii, iddoowwan aarsaa ixaanaas diiganii geessanii Sulula Qeedroonitti ni gatan.
15 On the fourteenth day of the second month they killed the Passover lamb. The priests and Levites were ashamed, and they purified themselves and brought burnt offerings to the Lord's Temple.
Guyyaa kudha afuraffaa jiʼa lammaffaattis hoolaa Faasiikaa qalan. Luboonnii fi Lewwonnis qaanaʼanii of qulqulleessuudhaan aarsaa gubamu gara mana qulqullummaa Waaqayyoo fidan.
16 They stood at their assigned positions, according to the law of Moses, the man of God. The priests sprinkled the blood of the sacrifices, which the Levites gave to them.
Ergasiis akkuma Seera Musee nama Waaqaa sanaa keessatti ajajametti iddoo isaaniif ramadame ni qabatan. Luboonnis dhiiga Lewwonni isaanitti kennan sana ni faffacaasan.
17 Since many people in the assembly had not purified themselves, the Levites had to kill the Passover lambs on behalf of every unclean person to dedicate the lambs to the Lord.
Sababii waldaa sana keessaa namoonni hedduun of hin qulqulleessiniif Lewwonni namoota akka seeraatti hin qulqullaaʼinii fi namoota hoolota isaanii Waaqayyoof qulqulleessuu hin dandaʼin hundaaf jedhanii hoolota Faasiikaa ni qalu turan.
18 Most of the people, many of those from Ephraim, Manasseh, Issachar, and Zebulun, had not purified themselves. Yet they ate the Passover meal even though this was not what the Law required, for Hezekiah had prayed for them, saying, “May the good Lord forgive everyone
Namoota biyya Efreem, Minaasee, Yisaakorii fi Zebuuloonii dhufan hedduu keessaa garri caalu of qulqulleessuu baatan iyyuu isaan waan barreeffameen alatti Faasiikaa nyaatan; Hisqiyaas garuu akkana jedhee Waaqa kadhateef; “Yaa Waaqayyoo tolaa,
19 who sincerely wants to follow the Lord God, the God of their forefathers, even though they're not clean according to the sanctuary requirements.”
nama garaa isaatiin siʼi Waaqayyo Waaqa abbootii isaa barbaaduuf kutate hunda yoo inni akka seera iddoo qulqulluutti qulqullaaʼaa taʼuu baate illee ati araaramiif.”
20 The Lord accepted Hezekiah's prayer and permitted them this violation.
Waaqayyos kadhannaa Hisqiyaas dhagaʼee saba sana ni fayyise.
21 The people of Israel who were there in Jerusalem celebrated the Feast of Unleavened Bread for seven days with great enthusiasm, and every day the Levites and priests praised the Lord, accompanied by loud instruments.
Israaʼeloonni Yerusaalem keessatti argamanii turan gammachuu guddaadhaan bultii torba Ayyaana Maxinoo ayyaaneffatan; Lewwonnii fi luboonni immoo meeshaalee faarfannaa Waaqayyootiin guyyaa guyyaadhaan Waaqayyoon galateeffachaa turan.
22 Hezekiah spoke positively to all the Levites who showed a good understanding of the Lord. For seven days they ate the food that was assigned to them, presented friendship offerings, and gave thanks to the Lord, the God of their forefathers.
Hisqiyaasis Lewwota waaʼee tajaajila Waaqayyoo irratti hubannaa gaarii qaban jajjabeessuudhaan itti dubbate. Isaanis bultii torbanuu waan isaaniif qoodame nyaachaa, aarsaa nagaas dhiʼeessaa Waaqayyo Waaqa abbootii isaaniitiif galata galchan.
23 Everyone then agreed to continue to celebrate the festival for seven more days. So for another seven days they celebrated, full of joy.
Waldaan sun guutuun bultii torba itti dabalee ayyaana sana ayyaaneffachuuf walii gale; kanaafuu isaan bultii torba itti dabalanii gammachuudhaan ayyaaneffatan.
24 Hezekiah, king of Judah, gave a thousand bulls and seven thousand sheep as offerings on behalf of the assembly. The officials in turn gave a thousand bulls and ten thousand sheep on as offerings on behalf of the assembly. A large number of priests purified themselves.
Hisqiyaas mootichi Yihuudaas korommii loonii kuma tokko, hoolotaa fi reʼoota kuma torba waldaa sanaaf ni kenne; qondaaltonni isaa immoo korommii loonii kuma tokko, hoolotaa fi reʼoota kuma kudhan ni kennan. Luboonni akka malee baayʼeenis of qulqulleessan.
25 The whole assembly of Judah celebrated, together with the priests and Levites, and also with the whole assembly that had come from Israel, including the foreigners from Israel and those living in Judah.
Waldaan Yihuudaa hundi, luboota, Lewwotaa fi namoota Israaʼel keessaa walitti qabaman hunda, akkasumas alagoota Israaʼel keessaa dhufanii fi kanneen Yihuudaa keessa jiraatan hunda wajjin ni gammadan.
26 There was such tremendous happiness in Jerusalem, for since the time of Solomon, son of David, king of Israel, nothing like this had happened in the city.
Bara Solomoon ilma Daawit mooticha Israaʼel jalqabee waan wanni akkasii Yerusaalem keessatti takkumaa hin taʼiniif Yerusaalem keessatti gammachuu guddaatu taʼe.
27 The priests and the Levites stood up to bless the people, and God heard them—their prayer ascended to where he lived in heaven.
Ergasiis luboonnii fi Lewwonni kaʼanii saba eebbisan; Waaqnis isaan dhagaʼe; kadhannaan isaanii gara samii, iddoo inni jiraatu qulqulluu sana gaʼeeraatii.
