1 H addaba Yehooraam ina Axaab ayaa dadka Israa'iil Samaariya boqor ugu noqday, taasuna waxay ahayd sannaddii siddeed iyo tobnaad ee Yehooshaafaad boqorkii dalka Yahuudah, oo wuxuuna boqor ahaa laba iyo toban sannadood.

Ahab’s son Jehoram became the king of Israel at Samaria in the eighteenth year of Jehoshaphat king of Judah. He ruled for twelve years.

2 O o wuxuu sameeyey wax Rabbiga hortiisa shar ku ah, laakiinse uma samayn sidii aabbihiis iyo sidii hooyadiis u sameeyeen oo kale, waayo, wuu riday tiirkii Bacal oo aabbihiis sameeyey.

Jehoram did what was bad in the eyes of the Lord, but not like his father and mother. For he put away the object of Baal which his father had made.

3 H abase yeeshee wuxuu ku dhegay dembigii Yaaraabcaam ina Nebaad, ee uu dadkii Israa'iil dembaajiyey, kaas kama uu tegin.

But he held on to the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, which made Israel sin. He did not leave them.

4 H addaba boqorkii reer Moo'aab oo Meeshaac ahaa ido buu lahaa, oo wuxuu boqorkii dalka Israa'iil baad u siin jiray boqol kun oo baraar ah, iyo boqol kun oo wan dhogortood.

Now Mesha king of Moab raised sheep. He had to pay the king of Israel 100, 000 lambs and the wool of 100, 000 rams each year.

5 L aakiinse markii Axaab dhintay ayaa boqorkii Moo'aab ku caasiyoobay boqorkii dalka Israa'iil.

But when Ahab died, the king of Moab turned against the king of Israel.

6 O o markaasaa Boqor Yehooraam ka baxay Samaariya, oo wuxuu soo safay dadkii Israa'iil oo dhan.

So King Jehoram went out of Samaria at that time and called all Israel together.

7 O o intuu tegey ayuu u cid dirtay Yehooshaafaad oo ahaa boqorkii dalka Yahuudah, oo wuxuu ku yidhi, Waxaa igu caasiyoobay boqorkii Moo'aab, haddaba ma i raacaysaa aan Moo'aab la dirirnee? Isna wuxuu yidhi, Haah, waan ku raacayaa, waayo, waxaan ahay adigoo kale, dadkayguna waa sida dadkaaga oo kale, fardahayguna waa sida fardahaaga oo kale.

Then he went and sent word to Jehoshaphat the king of Judah, saying, “The king of Moab has turned against me. Will you go with me to fight against Moab?” And Jehoshaphat said, “I will go. I am as you are. My people are as your people. My horses are as your horses.”

8 O o isna wuxuu yidhi, War jidkee baynu maraynaa? Markaasuu ugu jawaabay, Jidka cidlada Edom.

Then he said, “Which way should we go?” And he answered, “By the way of the desert of Edom.”

9 S idaas daraaddeed waxaa israacay boqorkii dalka Israa'iil, iyo boqorkii dalka Yahuudah, iyo boqorkii dalka Edom; oo waxay wareegeen meel toddoba maalmood loo socdo; oo ciidankii iyo xayawaankii la socday toona biyo ma helin.

So the king of Israel went with the king of Judah and the king of Edom. They traveled around for seven days, but there was no water for the army or the cattle that followed them.

10 M arkaasaa boqorkii dalka Israa'iil wuxuu yidhi, Hoogay! waayo, Rabbigu wuxuu saddexdayadan boqor isugu yeedhay inuu gacanta reer Moo'aab na geliyo.

The king of Israel said, “It is bad! For the Lord has called these three kings to give them into the hand of Moab.”

11 L aakiinse Yehooshaafaadba wuxuu yidhi, War sow ma joogo nin ah Rabbiga nebigiis aan Rabbiga wax ka weyddiinnee? Oo mid ka mid ah boqorkii dalka Israa'iil addoommadiisii ayaa ugu jawaabay, Waxaa jooga Eliishaa ina Shaafaad oo biyo ku shubi jiray Eliiyaah gacmihiisii.

But Jehoshaphat said, “Is there not a man who speaks for God here? Is there no one we can ask to learn what the Lord would have us do?” One of the servants of the king of Israel answered, “Elisha the son of Shaphat is here. He poured water on the hands of Elijah.”

12 M arkaasaa Yehooshaafaad wuxuu yidhi, Isaga Eraygii Rabbigaa la jira. Kolkaasay boqorkii dalka Israa'iil, iyo Yehooshaafaad, iyo boqorkii Edomba isagii u tageen.

And Jehoshaphat said, “The word of the Lord is with him.” So the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat and the king of Edom went down to him.

13 M arkaasaa Eliishaa wuxuu boqorkii dalka Israa'iil ku yidhi, War maxaa inaga dhexeeya? Nebiyadii aabbahaa iyo nebiyadii hooyadaa u tag. Oo boqorkii dalka Israa'iilna wuxuu ku yidhi, Maya, waayo, Rabbigu wuxuu saddexdayadan boqor isugu yeedhay inuu gacanta reer Moo'aab na geliyo.

Elisha said to the king of Israel, “What have I to do with you? Go to the men who tell what will happen in the future that your father and mother have gone to.” And the king of Israel said to him, “No. It is the Lord Who has called these three kings together to give them into the hand of Moab.”

14 O o Eliishaana wuxuu yidhi, Waxaan ku dhaartay Rabbiga ciidammada oo aan hor taagnahay noloshiisa ee hubaal haddii aanan xurmaynayn horjoogidda Yehooshaafaad oo ah boqorka dalka Yahuudah, xaggaaga ma aanan fiiriyeen kuna arkeen.

Elisha said, “As the Lord of all lives, before Whom I stand, if I did not care for Jehoshaphat the king of Judah, I would not look at you or see you.

15 H addaba waxaad ii keentaan nin kataarad wada. Oo markii ninkii kataaraddii ka dhawaajiyey ayaa gacantii Rabbigu ku soo degtay isagii.

But now bring me a man who plays music.” And when the man played music, the power of the Lord came upon Elisha.

16 O o wuxuu yidhi, Rabbigu wuxuu idinku leeyahay, Dooxadan boholo miidhan ka dhiga.

He said, “This is what the Lord says, ‘Make this valley full of ditches.’

17 W aayo, waxaa Rabbigu leeyahay, Dabayl ma arki doontaan, roobna ma arki doontaan, laakiin dooxadaas waxaa ka buuxsami doona biyo, oo idinna waad cabbi doontaan idinka, iyo lo'diinna, iyo xoolihiinnuba.

For the Lord says, ‘You will not see wind or rain. But that valley will be filled with water so that you and your cattle and your animals will drink.’

18 O o taasu Rabbiga hortiisa waa ku fudud dahay; oo weliba isagu reer Moo'aabna gacantiinnuu soo gelin doonaa.

This is only a small thing in the eyes of the Lord. He will give you the Moabites also.

19 O o waa inaad dumisaan magaalo kasta oo deyr leh, iyo magaalo kasta oo la doortay, oo geed kasta oo wanaagsan waa inaad jartaan, oo waxaad xidhaan ilo walba oo biyo ah, oo waxaad dhul kasta oo wanaagsan ku hallaysaan dhagaxyo.

Then you will destroy every strong city and cut down every good tree. You will close all the wells of water, and destroy every good piece of land with stones.”

20 O o subaxdii dambe markii allabariga la bixin jiray goor ku dhow ayaa biyo ka yimaadeen xagga Edom, oo waddankiina biyaa ka buuxsamay.

The next morning, about the time when the gift is given on the altar, water came by the way of Edom. The country was filled with water.

21 H addaba markay reer Moo'aab maqleen in boqorradii ay yimaadeen inay la dagaallamaan ayaa waxaa is-urursaday dhammaan kuwii hub qaadi karay iyo kuwii ka weynaa, oo waxay istaageen soohdinta.

Now all the Moabites heard that the kings had come up to fight against them. All who were able to wear battle-clothes, young and old, were called together. And they stood at the side of the land of Moab.

22 O o iyana waxay kaceen aroor hore, oo qorraxdiina biyihii bay dhalaalisay, oo reer Moo'aabna waxay arkeen biyihii hortooda ka muuqday oo guduudan sida dhiig oo kale.

They got up early in the morning. The sun was shining on the water. And the Moabites saw that the water beside them was as red as blood.

23 M arkaasay yidhaahdeen, War waxanu waa dhiig, hubaal boqorradii waa islaayeen oo nin waluba saaxiibkiis buu dilay; haddaba, reer Moo'aabow, xagga dhaca u kaca.

They said, “This is blood. For sure the kings have fought and killed one another. So now, Moab, let us take what is left!”

24 O o markay yimaadeen xeradii dadka Israa'iil ayaa dadka Israa'iil ku kaceen oo laayeen reer Moo'aab; iyana way ka carareen hortooda, oo dadka Israa'iilna dhulkii bay hore u galeen iyagoo reer Moo'aab laynaya.

But when they came to the tents of Israel, the Israelites came and fought against the Moabites. The Moabites ran from them. And Israel went on into the land, killing the Moabites.

25 O o magaalooyinkii way burburiyeen, oo dhul kasta oo fiicanna nin waluba dhagaxiisii buu ku tuuray, oo way buuxiyeen; oo ilihii biyaha ahaa oo dhanna way wada xidheen, oo geedihii wanaagsanaa oo dhanna way wada jareen, ilaa ay Qiir Xaresed oo keliya dhagxanteedii u daayeen, habase yeeshee wadhafleydii ayaa isku wareejisay oo ku dhufatay.

So they destroyed the cities. Each man threw a stone on every piece of good land until it was covered. They closed all the wells of water and cut down all the good trees. Only the stones of Kir-hareseth were left standing. But the stone-throwers went around it and fought against it.

26 O o boqorkii reer Moo'aab markuu arkay in dagaalku ku kulul yahay ayuu kaxaystay toddoba boqol oo nin ee seefqaad wada ah si uu ugu gudbo xagga boqorka Edom, laakiinse way kari waayeen.

The king of Moab saw that the battle was too hard for him. So he took with him 700 men who used the sword, to break through to the king of Edom. But they could not.

27 M arkaasuu kaxaystay wiilkiisii curadka ahaa oo meeshiisa boqor ka noqon lahaa, oo derbiga korkiisa ayuu sida allabari la gubo ugu bixiyey. Oo dadka Israa'iilna cadho weyn baa loo qabay, oo iyana way ka tageen isagii, oo waxay ku noqdeen dalkoodii.

Then he took his oldest son who was to rule in his place, and gave him as a burnt gift on the wall. And many became very angry toward Israel. They left him and returned to their own land.
