2 Weche Mag Ndalo 16
1 E higa mar piero adek gabich mar loch Asa, Baasha ruodh Israel nodhi kedo kod Juda kendo nochielo Rama motegno mondo ogengʼ ni ngʼato angʼata kik wuogi kata donji e piny Asa ruodh Juda.
In the thirty-sixth year of Asa’s reign, Baasha king of Israel went up against Judah, and built Ramah, that he might not allow anyone to go out or come in to Asa king of Judah.
2 Eka Asa nokawo fedha gi dhahabu e kuonde keno mag hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye kaachiel gi mago manokano e ode moorogi ne Ben-Hadad ruodh Aram manodak Damaski.
Then Asa brought out silver and gold out of the treasures of the LORD’s house and of the king’s house, and sent to Ben Hadad king of Syria, who lived at Damascus, saying,
3 Nowachone niya, “Winjruok mondo obedie kindi koda mana kaka nobedo e kind wuonwa gi wuonu. Aoroni mich mag fedha gi dhahabu, koro keth winjruok mantie e kindi gi Baasha ruodh Israel mondo mi owe kedo koda.”
“Let there be a treaty between me and you, as there was between my father and your father. Behold, I have sent you silver and gold. Go, break your treaty with Baasha king of Israel, that he may depart from me.”
4 Ben-Hadad noyie gi Ruoth Asa kendo nooro jotende mag lweny mondo omonj mier madongo mag Israel. Negiloyo Ijon, gi Dan kod Abel Maim kaachiel gi mier mag madongo mag keno mag Naftali.
Ben Hadad listened to King Asa, and sent the captains of his armies against the cities of Israel; and they struck Ijon, Dan, Abel Maim, and all the storage cities of Naphtali.
5 Kane Baasha owinjo mano, nochungo gero Rama kendo nojwangʼo tije.
When Baasha heard of it, he stopped building Ramah, and let his work cease.
6 Eka Ruoth Asa nokelo jo-Juda duto kendo negikawo kite duto kod yiende mane Baasha osebedo katiyogo Rama kendo notiyo kodgi kuom gero Geba kod Mizpa.
Then Asa the king took all Judah, and they carried away the stones and timber of Ramah, with which Baasha had built; and he built Geba and Mizpah with them.
7 E ndalogo Hanani janen nobiro ir Asa ruodh Juda mowachone niya, “Nikech nigeno kuom ruodh Aram ma ok kuom Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachi, jolweny mag ruodh Aram osetony oa e lweti.
At that time Hanani the seer came to Asa king of Judah, and said to him, “Because you have relied on the king of Syria, and have not relied on the LORD your God, therefore the army of the king of Syria has escaped out of your hand.
8 Donge jo-Kush kod jo-Libya ne ni kod jolweny motegno man kod geche lweny mangʼeny kod joriemb farese? To kane igeno kuom Jehova Nyasaye, to nochiwogi e lweti.
Weren’t the Ethiopians and the Lubim a huge army, with chariots and exceedingly many horsemen? Yet, because you relied on the LORD, he delivered them into your hand.
9 Nimar wenge Jehova Nyasaye ngʼiyo piny duto koni gi koni mondo ojiw joma chunygi oyie kuome chutho. Isetimo gima ofuwo omiyo chakre sani ibiro bedo gi lweny.”
For the LORD’s eyes run back and forth throughout the whole earth, to show himself strong in the behalf of them whose heart is perfect toward him. You have done foolishly in this; for from now on you will have wars.”
10 Asa ne iye owangʼ gi janen nikech wachni, nokecho kode ahinya mokete e twech. To bende e ndalogo Asa nochako sando jomoko malit.
Then Asa was angry with the seer, and put him in the prison; for he was in a rage with him because of this thing. Asa oppressed some of the people at the same time.
11 Weche mag loch Asa kar, chakruokgi nyaka gikogi, ondikgi e kitap ruodhi mag Juda kod Israel.
Behold, the acts of Asa, first and last, behold, they are written in the book of the kings of Judah and Israel.
12 E higa mar piero adek gochiko mar loch Asa, tuo nogoye gi e tiende, kendo kata obedo ni tuoneno ne lich to e tuoneno ne ok omanyo kony ir Jehova Nyasaye to mana kuom jothieth.
In the thirty-ninth year of his reign, Asa was diseased in his feet. His disease was exceedingly great; yet in his disease he didn’t seek the LORD, but just the physicians.
13 Asa notho moyweyo kod kwerene e higa mar piero angʼwen gi achiel mar lochne,
Asa slept with his fathers, and died in the forty-first year of his reign.
14 kendo negi yike e liel mane okunyo e Dala Maduongʼ mar Daudi. Negipiele e kitanda mopongʼ kod gik mangʼwe ngʼar moruw maber kendo negiloso magenga maduongʼ ka imiyego duongʼ.
They buried him in his own tomb, which he had dug out for himself in David’s city, and laid him in the bed which was filled with sweet odors and various kinds of spices prepared by the perfumers’ art; and they made a very great fire for him.
