2 Hina 21
1 Ma: na: se da lalelegele, ode fagoyale esalu, ea Yuda ouligibi bai muni hamoi. E da Yelusaleme moilai bai bagadega esala, Yuda fi ode 55 agoanega ouligilalu.
Manasseh was twelve years old when he began to rule. He ruled Judah for 55 years from Jerusalem. His mother was Hephzibah.
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 of the nations that Yahweh had expelled from the land of Israel as his people advanced [through the land].
3 E da ogogosu ‘gode’ma nodone sia: ne gadosu sogebi, amo ea ada Hesegaia 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 Yahweh] that his father Hezekiah had destroyed [because they were not in the place that Yahweh had said they should worship him]. He directed his workers to build altars for worshiping Baal. He made [a statue of the goddess] Asherah, like Ahab the king of Israel had done [previously]. And Manasseh worshiped [DOU] the stars.
4 E da ogogosu ‘gode’ ilia oloda Debolo Diasu ganodini gagui. Hina Gode da 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 worshiping foreign gods] in the temple of Yahweh, about which Yahweh had said, “It is here in Jerusalem where I want people to worship [MTY] me, forever.”
5 Debolo Diasu gagoi aduna ganodini, e da oloda amo gasumunima nodone sia: ne gadomusa: gagui.
He directed that altars for worshiping the stars be built in both of the courtyards outside the temple.
6 E da ogogosu ‘gode’ma egefe amo 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 da ougi ba: i.
He even sacrificed his own son by burning [him in a fire]. He performed rituals to practice sorcery and magic rituals. He also went to people who consulted the spirits of dead people to find out what would happen in the future. He did many things that Yahweh considered to be extremely evil, things that caused Yahweh to become very angry.
7 E da wadela: i uda ‘gode’ Asila loboga hamoi agoaila, amo Debolo Diasu ganodini ligisi. Be Hina Gode da musa: Da: ibidi amola Da: ibidi ea mano Soloumane elama amane sia: i, “Guiguda: Yelusaleme 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.
He placed the statue of the goddess Asherah in the temple, the place about which Yahweh had said to David and his son Solomon, “My temple will be here in Jerusalem. This is the city that I have chosen from all the territory of the twelve tribes of Israel, 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 enoga gadili sefasima: ne, logo hamedafa doasimu.”
And if the Israeli people obey all my commands and all the laws that I gave to Moses, the man who served me [very well], I will not again force them 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 the people did not heed Yahweh. And Manasseh persuaded them to commit sins that are more evil than the sins that were committed by the people of the nations that Yahweh had expelled from the land as the Israeli people advanced.
10 Hina Gode da ea hawa: hamosu balofede dunu ilimadili amane sia: i,
[These are some of the things that] the prophets said many times, messages that Yahweh had given them:
11 “Hina bagade Ma: na: se da amo gogosiasu, wadela: idafa hou hamoi dagoi. E da Ga: ina: ne dunu ilia wadela: i hou bagadewane baligi. E da ogogosu ‘gode’ loboga hamoiba: le, Yuda dunu wadela: le hamoma: ne oule asi dagoi.
“Manasseh, the king of Judah, has done these abominable things, things that are much worse than the things that the Amor people-group did in this land long ago. He has persuaded the people of Judah to sin by [worshiping] idols.
12 Amaiba: le, Na, Isala: ili fi ilia Hina Gode, Na da Yuda fi amola Yelusaleme fi ilima gugunufinisisu bagadedafa iasimu. Amola eno fifi asi gala da amo hou nababeba: le, bagadewane fofogadigiba: le, sidimu agoai ba: mu.
Therefore, this is what I, Yahweh, the God whom you Israeli people worship, say: I will the cause the people of Jerusalem and the rest of Judah to experience great disasters. It will be terrible, with the result that everyone who hears about it will be stunned [MTY].
13 Na da Samelia fi amola Isala: ili hina bagade A: iha: be amola egaga fi ilima se dabe iasu, amo defele Na da Yelusaleme fi ilima se dabe imunu. Na da Yelusaleme fi dunu huluanedafa fadegale fasimu. Amola fedege agoane, Yelusaleme da yaeya amo da dodofele, doga: le dagole, delegili fasi dagoi agoai ba: mu.
I will judge and punish [MET] the people of Jerusalem like I punished the family of King Ahab [of Israel]. I will (wipe Jerusalem clean/remove all the people from Jerusalem), like [MET] people wipe a plate and then turn it upside down [after they have finished eating, to show that they are now satisfied].
14 Na da dunu hame bogoi esalebe, amo yolesimu. Na da ili ha lai dunu, ilia gagulaligima: ne ilima imunu. Ilia ha lai da ili hasalalu, ilia liligi huluane lale, amola ilia soge wadela: lesimu.
And I will abandon the people who remain alive, and I will allow their enemies to conquer them and steal everything valuable from their land.
15 Na fi dunu da Nama wadela: le hamoi, amola ilia aowalali da Idibidi soge fisili, gadili asili, amogainini wali eso, ilia da Na ougima: ne hamobeba: le, Na da amo se dabe ilima imunu.”
I will do this because my people have done things that I consider to be very evil, things which have caused me to become very angry. They have caused me to become angry continually, ever since their ancestors left Egypt.”
16 Ma: na: se da molole hamosu dunu bagohame medole legeiba: le, Yelusaleme logoga maga: me da hano logoga, hano ahoabe amo defele ba: i. Amolawane, e da Yuda fi dunu loboga hamoi ‘gode’ma nodone sia: ne gadomusa: oleleiba: le, e da ili Hina Godema wadela: le hamoma: ne oule asi.
Manasseh [commanded his officials to] kill many innocent people in Jerusalem, with the result that their blood flowed in the streets. He did this in addition to persuading the people of Judah to sin against Yahweh [by worshiping idols].
17 Ma: na: se ea hawa: hamonanu eno amola ea wadela: i hou hamonanu eno huluane da “Yuda hina bagade Ilia Hawa: Hamonanu Meloa” amo ganodini dedene legei.
[If you want to know more about] all the things that Manasseh did, they are written in the scroll called ‘The History of the Kings of Judah’.
18 Ma: na: se da bogole, hina bagade diasu bega: ifabi (Asaia ea ifabi) amo ganodini uli dogone sali. Egefe A: mone da e bagia, Yuda hina bagade hamoi.
Manasseh died [EUP] and was buried in the garden outside his palace, the garden that Uzza [had made]. Then Manasseh’s son Amon became the king.
19 A: mone da lalelegele, ode 22 agoane esalu, muni Yuda hina bagade hamoi. E da Yelusaleme ganodini esala, ode aduna fawane Yuda fi ouligilalu. Ea ame da Misialemede (Halase ea idiwi. E da Yodeba moilaiga misi dunu.)
Amon was twenty-two years old when he became king. He ruled Judah from Jerusalem for [only] two years. His mother’s name was Meshullemeth. She was from Jotbah [town], and was the granddaughter of Haruz.
20 A: mone da ea ada Ma: na: se defele, Hina Godema wadela: i hou hamosu.
Amon did many things that Yahweh considered to be evil, like his father Manasseh had done.
21 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 imitated the behavior of his father, and he worshiped the same idols that his father had worshiped [DOU].
22 E da Hina Gode (ea aowalali ilia Gode) amo higale, Hina Gode Ea hamoma: ne sia: i nabawane hame hamosu.
He abandoned Yahweh, the God whom his ancestors [had worshiped], and did not behave as Yahweh wanted him to.
23 A: mone ea eagene ouligisu dunu ilia da e medoma: ne, wamo sia: dasu. Amola ilia da hina bagade diasu ganodini, e medole legei dagoi.
Then one day some of his officials plotted to kill him. They assassinated him in the palace.
24 Yuda fi dunu da A: mone fasu dunu medole legei. Amola ea mano Yousaia da e bagia hina bagade hamoi.
But then the people of Judah killed all those who had assassinated King Amon, and they appointed his son Josiah to be their king.
25 A: mone ea hawa: hamonanu eno huluane da, “Yuda hina bagade Ilia Hawa: Hamonanu Meloa” amo ganodini dedene legei.
[If you want to read about] [RHQ] the other things that Amon did, they are written in the scroll called ‘The History of the Kings of Judah’.
26 A: mone da Asaia ea ifabi sogebi amo ganodini uli dogone sali ba: i. Egefe Yousaia da e bagia, Yuda hina bagade hamoi.
Amon was also buried in the tomb in the garden that Uzza [had made]. Then Amon’s son Josiah became the king.
