2 Weche Mag Ndalo 21
1 Jehoshafat notho kaka kwerene kendo noyike but kwerene e Dala Maduongʼ mar Daudi kendo Jehoram wuode nobedo ruoth kare.
Jehoshaphat slept with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers in David’s city; and Jehoram his son reigned in his place.
2 Owete Jehoram ma yawuot Jehoshafat ne gin Azaria gi Jehiel gi Zekaria kod Azariahu gi Mikael kod Shefatia. Magi duto ne gin yawuot Jehoshafat ruodh Israel.
He had brothers, the sons of Jehoshaphat: Azariah, Jehiel, Zechariah, Azariah, Michael, and Shephatiah. All these were the sons of Jehoshaphat king of Israel.
3 Wuon-gi nosemiyogi mwandu mangʼeny mag fedha gi dhahabu gi gik moko ma nengogi tek kaachiel gi mier mag Juda mochiel gohinga motegno, kata kamano loch pinye nomiyo Jehoram pinyruoth nikech ne en wuode makayo.
Their father gave them great gifts of silver, of gold, and of precious things, with fortified cities in Judah; but he gave the kingdom to Jehoram, because he was the firstborn.
4 Kane Jehoram nosegurore motegno e kom duongʼ wuon mare, nonego owetene gi ligangla kaachiel gi joka dhood ruoth mamoko mag Israel.
Now when Jehoram had risen up over the kingdom of his father, and had strengthened himself, he killed all his brothers with the sword, and also some of the princes of Israel.
5 Jehoram ne ja-higni piero adek gariyo kane obedo ruoth, kendo norito piny kodak Jerusalem kuom higni aboro.
Jehoram was thirty-two years old when he began to reign, and he reigned eight years in Jerusalem.
6 Noluwo timbe mag ruodhi Israel mana kaka jood Ahab notimo nimar nokendo nyar Ahab. Notimo timbe mamono e nyim Jehova Nyasaye.
He walked in the way of the kings of Israel, as did Ahab’s house, for he had Ahab’s daughter as his wife. He did that which was evil in the LORD’s sight.
7 Kata kamano Jehova Nyasaye ne ok otieko od Daudi nikech noparo singruok mane otimo kode. Nosesingore ne Daudi gi ogandane ni ginibed e loch nyaka chiengʼ.
However the LORD would not destroy David’s house, because of the covenant that he had made with David, and as he promised to give a lamp to him and to his children always.
8 E ndalo loch Jehoram, Edom nongʼanyo ne Juda mi gibedo gi ruodhgi giwegi.
In his days Edom revolted from under the hand of Judah, and made a king over themselves.
9 Omiyo Jehoram nodhi kuno gi jotende kod gechene duto mag lweny. Jo-Edom nolwore kaachiel gi jotend gechene mag lweny, to nochiewo gotieno momwomogi.
Then Jehoram went there with his captains and all his chariots with him. He rose up by night and struck the Edomites who surrounded him, along with the captains of the chariots.
10 Nyaka chil kawuono jo-Edom pod ongʼanyo ne jo-Juda. Jo-Libna bende nongʼanyo e ndalono nikech Jehoram noweyo Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasach kwerene.
So Edom has been in revolt from under the hand of Judah to this day. Then Libnah revolted at the same time from under his hand, because he had forsaken the LORD, the God of his fathers.
11 Bende ne osegero kuonde motingʼore malo mag lemo e gode matindo mag Juda kendo nomiyo jo-Jerusalem oweyo Nyasaye kendo omiyo jo-Juda bende orwenyo.
Moreover he made high places in the mountains of Judah, and made the inhabitants of Jerusalem play the prostitute, and led Judah astray.
12 Jehoram nonwangʼo baruwa koa ir Elija janabi mawacho niya, “Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasach kwaru Daudi wacho, ‘Ok iseluwo yore wuonu Jehoshafat kata mago mag Asa ruodh Juda.
A letter came to him from Elijah the prophet, saying, “the LORD, the God of David your father, says, ‘Because you have not walked in the ways of Jehoshaphat your father, nor in the ways of Asa king of Judah,
13 To isewuotho e yore mag ruodhi mag Israel, omiyo isemiyo jo-Juda kod jo-Jerusalem oseweyo luwa mana kaka dhood Ahab notimo. Bende isenego oweteni monywoligo ma nyithind wuonu hie, joma ne ber moloyi.
but have walked in the way of the kings of Israel, and have made Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem to play the prostitute like Ahab’s house did, and also have slain your brothers of your father’s house, who were better than yourself,
14 Koro omiyo Jehova Nyasaye biro chwado jogi, yawuoti kod mondi kod gimoro amora miluongo ni mari, noyud chwat malit.
behold, the LORD will strike your people with a great plague, including your children, your wives, and all your possessions;
15 In iwuon nibed gi tuo marach manocham nyimbiyi, kendo tuoni nomi nyimbiyi wuog oko.’”
and you will have great sickness with a disease of your bowels, until your bowels fall out by reason of the sickness, day by day.’”
16 Jehova Nyasaye nomiyo jo-Filistia gi jo-Arabu modak mokiewo kod jo-Kush obedo mamono kod Jehoram.
The LORD stirred up against Jehoram the spirit of the Philistines and of the Arabians who are beside the Ethiopians;
17 Negimonjo Juda magi kedo kode kendo negipeyo gik moko duto mane nitie e od ruoth kaachiel gi yawuote kod monde. Onge wuode mane odongʼ makmana wuode ma chogo miluongo ni Ahazia.
and they came up against Judah, broke into it, and carried away all the possessions that were found in the king’s house, including his sons and his wives, so that there was no son left to him except Jehoahaz, the youngest of his sons.
18 Bangʼ mano Jehova Nyasaye nogoyo Jehoram gi tuo malich momako nyimbiye ma ok thiedhre.
After all this the LORD struck him in his bowels with an incurable disease.
19 Bangʼ kinde manok madirom higni ariyo, tuone nomedore ma nyimbiye nowuok oko omiyo notho ka en gi rem malich. Joge ne ok olosone mach mar magenga kaka nolosne kwerene.
In process of time, at the end of two years, his bowels fell out by reason of his sickness, and he died of severe diseases. His people made no burning for him, like the burning of his fathers.
20 Jehoram ne ja-higni piero adek gariyo ka nodoko ruoth, kendo norito piny kuom higni aboro kodak Jerusalem. Notho maonge ngʼama nokuyo kuom thone kendo noyike e Dala Maduongʼ mar Daudi to ok kuma iyikoe ruodhi.
He was thirty-two years old when he began to reign, and he reigned in Jerusalem eight years. He departed with no one’s regret. They buried him in David’s city, but not in the tombs of the kings.
