1 Ma: na: se da lalelegele, ode fagoyale esalu, ea Yuda ouligisu bai muni hamoi. E da Yelusaleme moilaiga esala, Yuda fi ode 55 agoanega ouligilalu.
Manasseh was 12 years old when he became the king [of Judah], and he ruled from Jerusalem for 55 years.
2 Ma: na: se da Hina Godema wadela: le hamoi. Ga: ina: ne sogega musa: esalebe fi da baligili gogosiasu wadela: i hou hamobeba: le, Isala: ili dunu da Ga: ina: ne soge golili sa: ili, gusuba: i ahoanoba, Hina Gode da Ga: ina: ne fi gadili sefasi. Be Ma: na: se da amo fi ilia wadela: idafa hou amoma fa: no bobogesu.
He did many things that Yahweh considered to be evil. He imitated the disgusting things that were formerly done by the people-groups that Yahweh had expelled from Israel as his people advanced [though the land].
3 E da ogogosu ‘gode’ma nodone sia: ne gadosu sogebi, amo ea ada Hesigaia da wadela: lesi, Ma: na: se da bu buga: le gagui. E da Ba: ilema nodone sia: ne gadomusa: , oloda bagohame gagui. E da Isala: ili hina bagade A: iha: be ea hou defele, ogogosu uda ‘gode’ Asila e agoaila hahamoi. Amola Ma: na: se da gasumunima nodone sia: ne gadoi.
He commanded his workers to rebuild the shrines [for worshiping idols] that his father Hezekiah had destroyed. He told them to set up altars to [honor] the statues of Baal, and to make altars to [honor the goddess] Asherah. He bowed down to [worship] all the stars.
4 E da ogogosu ‘gode’ ilia oloda Debolo Diasu ganodini gagui. Hina Gode Ea musa: hamoma: ne sia: i, amo da Debolo Diasu ganodini, dunu da Ema fawane nodone sia: ne gadosu hamoma: ne sia: i.
He directed his workers to build altars [for foreign gods] in the temple, about which Yahweh had said, “It is here in Jerusalem that I want people to worship me, forever.”
5 Debolo Diasu gagoi aduna ganodini, e da oloda amo gasumunima nodone sia: ne gadomusa: gagui.
He directed that altars for [worshiping] all the stars be built in both of the courtyards outside the temple.
6 E da Hinome Fago ganodini, egefelali amo ogogosu ‘gode’ma gobele sali. E da wadela: i ba: la: lusu hou hamosu. E da wamuni dawa: su hou hamosu amola gesami dasu ilia fada: i sia: nabalusu. E da Hina Godema bagadewane wadela: le hamobeba: le, Hina Gode Ea ougi da lalu agoane heda: i.
He even sacrificed [some of] his own sons and burned them in a fire in Hinnom Valley. He performed rituals to practice sorcery. He asked fortune-tellers for advice. He performed witchcraft. He talked to people who consulted the spirits of people who had died to find out what would happen in the future. He did many things that Yahweh considered o be very evil, things that caused Yahweh to become very angry.
7 E da wadela: i uda ‘gode’ Asila agoai loboga hamoi liligi, amo Debolo Diasu ganodini ligisi. Be Hina Gode da musa: Da: ibidi amola, Da: ibidi ea mano Soloumane elama amane sia: i, “Guiguda: Yelusaleme moilai bai bagade ganodini, Na da amo Debolo ganodini sogebi ilegei. Amo sogebiga fawane, Isala: ili fi fagoyale gala da Nama fawane nodone sia: ne gadoma: ne, Na da ilegei.
Manasseh took a carved idol [that his workers had made] and put it in the temple. That is the temple concerning which God had said to David and to his son Solomon, “My temple will be here in Jerusalem, the city that I have chosen [where I want people to] worship me, forever.
8 Isala: ili fi dunu da Na hamoma: ne sia: i huluane nabawane hamosea, amola sema amo Na da Na hamosu dunu Mousesegili i, amo huluane ilia nabawane hamosea, Na da ili, amo soge Na da ilia aowalalima i, amoga ili enoga gadili sefasima: ne, logo hamedafa doasimu.”
If they will obey all the laws and decrees and regulations that I told Moses to give to them, I will not again force the Israeli people to leave this land that I gave to their ancestors.”
9 Be Yuda fi dunu da Hina Gode Ea sia: nabawane hame hamosu. Amola Ma: na: se da ilia wadela: i hou (amo da musa: Ga: ina: ne fi da bagadewane wadela: le hamobeba: le, Isala: ili dunu da gusuba: i heda: loba, Hina Gode da Ga: ina: ne fi gadili sefasi) amo wadela: i hou baligili hamoma: ne, Ma: na: se da Yuda fi oule asi.
But Manasseh led the people of Jerusalem and other places in Judah to do things that are wrong, with the result that they did more evil than was done by the people in the people-groups that Yahweh had expelled as the Israeli people advanced [through the land].
10 Hina Gode da Ma: na: se amola ea fi dunuma sisasu sia: i. Be ilia nabimu higa: i.
Yahweh spoke to Manasseh and the people of Judah, but they paid no attention.
11 Amaiba: le, Hina Gode da logo doasiba: le, Asilia dadi gagui wa: i da Yuda fi doagala: i. Ilia da Ma: na: se gagulaligili, ea mi gelaba ma: go sanawane, sia: inega la: gili, Ba: bilone sogega hiouginana asi.
So Yahweh caused the army commanders of Assyria [and their soldiers] to [come to Jerusalem, and they] captured Manasseh. They put a hook in his nose and put bronze chains on his [feet] and took him to Babylon.
12 E se bagadewane nababeba: le, ea hou fonoboi. E da ea Hina Godema sinidigili, fidima: ne adole ba: su.
There, while he was suffering, he humbled himself greatly in the presence of Yahweh, the God whom his ancestors [worshiped], and pleaded with Yahweh to help him.
13 Gode da Ma: na: se ea sia: ne gadobe nabalu, e Yuda fi bu ouligima: ne, bu Yelusalemega asunasi. Amo hou ba: beba: le, Ma: na: se da Hina Gode da Godedafa dafawaneyale dawa: i.
When he prayed, Yahweh heard him and pitied him. So he [allowed him to] return to Jerusalem and [to] rule his kingdom again. Then Manasseh realized that Yahweh is [an all-powerful] God.
14 Amalu fa: no, Ma: na: se da gadili dobea Da: ibidi Moilai bai bagadega gusudili dialu amo da fago Gihone Gu Hano gadenene dialu, amoga asili, Menabo Logo Ga: su amola moilai sogebi ea dio Oufele, amoga doaga: su, bu sedagili gagagula heda: i. Amola e da dadi gagui ouligisu dunu, amo da Yuda soge gagili sali moilai bai bagade afae afae ouligima: ne, ilegei dagoi.
Later, Manasseh’s [workers] rebuilt the eastern section of the outer wall around Jerusalem, and [they] made it higher. That section extended from Gihon Spring [north] to the Fish Gate, and around the part of the city that they called Ophel [Hill]. Manasseh also appointed army officers to guard each of the cities in Judah that had walls around them.
15 E da ga fi ogogosu ‘gode’ amola loboga hamoi ‘gode’ agoaila liligi amo e da musa: ligisi, amo Debolo Diasuga gadili fadegai. Amo amola ogogosu ‘gode’ma gobele salimusa: oloda amo da Debolo Diasu agolo dabua amola Yelusaleme sogebi enoga dialebe ba: i, amo huluane moilai hamega gadili gaguli asili, ha: digi dagoi.
Manasseh’s [workers] removed from the temple the idols and the stone statues of gods of other nations. Manasseh also [told them to] remove the altars that they had previously built on Zion Hill and in [other places in] Jerusalem. He had all those things thrown out of the city.
16 Amola e da oloda amoga ilia musa: Hina Godema nodone sia: ne gadosu, amo bu dodoa: i. Amola e da amoga Hahawane Gilisili Olofole Iasu amola Godema Nodosu Iasu, amo gobele sali. E da Yuda fi dunu huluane, ilia Isala: ili Hina Godema nodone sia: ne gadoma: ne sia: i.
Then he [told them to] repair the altar of Yahweh, and he offered sacrifices to restore fellowship with Yahweh and to thank him. And he told [the people of] Judah that they must worship [only] Yahweh.
17 Yuda dunu da sogebi higagaia gebewane gobele salalasu. Be ilia da Hina Gode Ema fawane gobele salasu.
The people continued to offer sacrifices on the hilltops, but only to Yahweh their God.
18 Ma: na: se ea hawa: hamonanu eno, ea Godema sia: ne gadosu amola balofede dunu amo da Isala: ili Hina Gode Ea Dioba: le ema sia: i, ilia sia: ne iasu, amo huluane da “Isala: ili hina bagade Ilia Hawa: Hamonanu Meloa” amo ganodini dedene legei.
The other things that happened while Manasseh was ruling, including his prayer to God and the messages from Yahweh that the prophets gave to him, are written in the scroll called ‘The History of the Kings of Israel’.
19 Hina bagade ea sia: ne gadosu, ema Gode Ea dabe iasu, ea Godema hame sinidigi esoga wadela: i hou hamoi, ea ogogosu ‘gode’ma nodone sia: ne gadosu sogebi, amola wadela: i uda ‘gode’ Asila agoai e da loboga hamoi, amo huluane da “Balofede Dunu ilia Hamonanu Meloa” ganodini dedene legei.
What Manasseh prayed and how God pitied him because he pleaded to God, and also his sins and ways in which he disobeyed God, and the [list of] places where he built shrines and set up poles to [honor the goddess] Asherah and other idols [before he humbled himself], are written in what the prophets wrote.
20 Ma: na: se da bogole, hina bagade diasua uli dogonesali. Egefe A: imone da e bagia, Yuda hina bagade hamoi.
Manasseh died and was buried in his palace. Then his son Amon became the king [of Judah].
21 A: imone da lalelegele, ode 22 agoane esalu, bai muni Yuda hina bagade hamoi. E da Yelusaleme moilai bai bagade ganodini esala, ode aduna fawane, Yuda fi ouligilalu
Amon was 22 years old when he became king, and he ruled in Jerusalem for two years.
22 A: imone da ea ada Mana: se defele, Hina Godema wadela: i hou hamosu. E da ea ada ea hou amoma fa: no bobogele, loboga hamoi ogogosu ‘gode’ ilima ea ada nodone sia: ne gadoi, e amolawane ilima nodone sia: ne gadosu.
He did things that Yahweh considered to be evil, like his father Manasseh had done. Amon worshiped all the idols that Manasseh’s [workers] had made.
23 Be ea ada da ea hou fonobone, Hina Godema sinidigi. Be A: imone da agoane hame hamoi. E da ea ada ea wadela: i hou amo baligi dagoi.
But he did not humble himself and turn to Yahweh like his father did. So he became more sinful than his father had been.
24 A: imone eagene ouligisu dunu ilia da e medoma: ne, wamo sia: dasu. Amola ilia da hina bagade diasu ganodini, e medole legei dagoi.
Then Amon’s officials made plans to kill him. They assassinated him in his palace.
25 Yuda fi dunu da A: imone fasu dunu medole legei. Amola ilia da ea mano Yousaia, e bagia hina bagade ilegei.
But then the people of Judah killed all those who had assassinated Amon, and they appointed his son Josiah to be their king.
