2 Weche Mag Ndalo 25

1 Amazia ne ja-higni piero ariyo gabich kane odoko ruoth kendo norito Jerusalem kuom higni piero ariyo gochiko. Min mare ne nyinge Jehoadin nyar Jerusalem.

Amaziah was twenty and five years old when he began to reign, and he reigned twenty and nine years in Jerusalem. And his mother’s name was Jehoaddan of Jerusalem.

2 Notimo gima kare e nyim Jehova Nyasaye to ok gi chunye duto.

And he did that which was right in the sight of the LORD, but not with a perfect heart.

3 Bangʼ ka pinyruodhe nosegurore maber, nonego jotelo mane onego wuon mare mane ruoth.

Now it came to pass, when the kingdom was established to him, that he slew his servants that had killed the king his father.

4 Kata kamano ne ok onego yawuot jogo nikech noluwo chik manie Kitap Chik mar Musa mane Jehova Nyasaye oketo mawacho niya, “Wuone ok nonegi nikech ketho mag nyithindgi, bende nyithindo kik negi nikech ketho mag wuonegi, to ngʼato ka ngʼato nonegi nikech richone owuon.”

But he slew not their children, but did as it is written in the law of the book of Moses, where the LORD commanded, saying, The fathers shall not die for the children, neither shall the children die for the fathers, but every man shall die for his own sin.

5 Eka Amazia nochoko jo-Juda kod jo-Benjamin kaachiel mopogogi tich kaluwore gi anywolagi kendo noyiero jotend migepe mag jolweny alufu achiel kod migepe mag mia achiel. Bangʼe nokwano jogo mahikgi piero ariyo ka dhi nyime kendo nonwangʼo ni ne gin ji alufu mia adek mane nyalo dhi e lweny kendo mane nyalo kedo gi tongʼ kod okumba.

Moreover Amaziah gathered Judah together, and made them captains over thousands, and captains over hundreds, according to the houses of their fathers, throughout all Judah and Benjamin: and he numbered them from twenty years old and above, and found them three hundred thousand choice men, able to go forth to war, that could handle spear and shield.

6 Bende nondiko jo-Israel mathuondi alufu mia achiel kochulo fedha ma pekne romo kilo alufu adek gi mia angʼwen.

He hired also an hundred thousand mighty men of valour out of Israel for an hundred talents of silver.

7 To ngʼat Nyasaye moro nobiro ire mowachone niya, “Ruoth momi luor, kik iyie mondo jolweny ma jo-Israel dhi kodi nimar Jehova Nyasaye ok ni kod jo-Israel ma jo-Efraim-gi.

But there came a man of God to him, saying, O king, let not the army of Israel go with thee; for the LORD is not with Israel, that is, with all the children of Ephraim.

8 To kata kidhi ma ikedo gi chir e lweny, to Nyasaye nomi wasiki loyi, nikech Nyasayeno nigi teko mar konyi kata miyo wasiki loyi.”

But if thou wilt go, do it, be strong for the battle: God shall make thee fall before the enemy: for God hath power to help, and to cast down.

9 Amazia nopenjo ngʼat Nyasaye niya, “To wabiro timo angʼo kuom fedha mapekgi romo kilo alufu adek gi mia angʼwen mane wachulo kuom jolweny mag jo-Israel?” Ngʼat Nyasaye nodwoko niya, “Jehova Nyasaye nyalo miyi mangʼeny moloyo mano.”

And Amaziah said to the man of God, But what shall we do for the hundred talents which I have given to the army of Israel? And the man of God answered, The LORD is able to give thee much more than this.

10 Eka Amazia noriembo jolweny mane oa Efraim mine gidok e miechgi ka igi owangʼ kendo gikecho malich gi Juda.

Then Amaziah separated them, that is, the army that had come to him out of Ephraim, to go home again: therefore their anger was greatly kindled against Judah, and they returned home in great anger.

11 To Amazia notimo chir kendo nowuok motelone jolweny mage kagidhi e Holo mar Chumbi kama nonege jo-Seir alufu apar.

And Amaziah strengthened himself, and led forth his people, and went to the valley of salt, and smote of the children of Seir ten thousand.

12 Jolweny mag Juda nomako ji alufu apar kangima mi negiterogi ewi lwanda moro kendo negidirogi piny ma githo kendo gitur matindo tindo.

And other ten thousand left alive the children of Judah carried away captive, and brought them to the top of the rock, and cast them down from the top of the rock, that they were all broken in pieces.

13 To e sechego jolweny mane Amazia oriembo ni ok inyal dhi kode e lweny nomonjo miech Juda chakre Samaria nyaka Beth Horon. Neginego ji alufu adek kendo negipeyo gik moko mangʼeny.

But the soldiers of the army whom Amaziah sent back, that they should not go with him to battle, fell upon the cities of Judah, from Samaria even to Bethhoron, and smote three thousand of them, and took much spoil.

14 Kane Amazia odwogo koa nego jo-Edom nokelo nyiseche mag jo-Seir moketogi ka nyisechege kokulore nigi kendo notimonigi misango.

Now it came to pass, after that Amaziah had come from the slaughter of the Edomites, that he brought the gods of the children of Seir, and set them up to be his gods, and bowed himself before them, and burned incense to them.

15 Jehova Nyasaye nokecho ahinya gi Amazia kendo noorone janabi manowachone niya, “Angʼo momiyo igeno kuom nyiseche mag jogi mane ok nyal reso jogi giwegi e lweti?”

Therefore the anger of the LORD was kindled against Amaziah, and he sent to him a prophet, who said to him, Why hast thou sought after the gods of the people, which could not deliver their own people out of thy hand?

16 Kane pod janabino wuoyo, ruoth nowachone niya, “Bende waseketi jangʼad rieko ne ruoth? Lingʼ thi! Koso idwaro tho?” Omiyo janabi nolingʼ, to bangʼe nowacho niya, “Angʼeyo ni Nyasaye osechano ni mondo otieki nikech gima isetimo kendo ok isewinjo puonjna.”

And it came to pass, as he talked with him, that the king said to him, Art thou made of the king’s council? forbear; why shouldest thou be smitten? Then the prophet stopped, and said, I know that God hath determined to destroy thee, because thou hast done this, and hast not hearkened to my counsel.

17 Bangʼe Amazia ruodh Juda nopenjo jongʼadne rieko mi nooro joote ir Jehoash wuod Jehoahaz ma wuod Jehu ruoth Israel kowacho niya, “Bi warom wangʼ gi wangʼ.”

Then Amaziah king of Judah took advice, and sent to Joash, the son of Jehoahaz, the son of Jehu, king of Israel, saying, Come, let us look one another in the face.

18 To Jehoash ruodh Israel nodwoko Amazia ruodh Juda gi ngero niya, “Kuth alii man Lebanon nooro wach ne yiend sida man Lebanon ni, ‘Yie ichiw nyari ne wuoda mondo okendi.’ To le moro mar bungu mowuok Lebanon nokadho kanyo monyono kuth aliino gi tiende.

And Joash king of Israel sent to Amaziah king of Judah, saying, The thistle that was in Lebanon sent to the cedar that was in Lebanon, saying, Give thy daughter to my son for a wife: and there passed by a wild beast that was in Lebanon, and trod down the thistle.

19 In iwuorori ni iseloyo jo-Edom kendo koro iwuoyo marach kisungori. To ber mondo ibed mana e dala. Angʼo momiyo imanyo lweny mabiro tieki kaachiel gi jo-Juda duto?”

Thou sayest, Lo, thou hast smitten the Edomites; and thy heart lifteth thee up to boast: abide now at home; why shouldest thou meddle to thy harm, that thou shouldest fall, even thou, and Judah with thee?

20 Kata kamano, Amazia ne ok odewo, nimar ne en dwaro Nyasaye mondo ochiwe e lwet Jehoash nikech negiluwo nyiseche mag Edom.

But Amaziah would not hear; for it came from God, that he might deliver them into the hand of their enemies, because they sought after the gods of Edom.

21 Omiyo Jehoash ruodh Israel nomonje. Jehoash kod Amazia ruodh Juda ne joromo e lweny e dala mar Beth Shemesh man Juda.

So Joash the king of Israel went up; and they looked one another in the face, both he and Amaziah king of Judah, at Bethshemesh, which belongeth to Judah.

22 Jo-Israel noloyo jo-Juda kendo ngʼato ka ngʼato noringo kochomo dalane.

And Judah was smote before Israel, and they fled every man to his tent.

23 Jehoash ruodh Israel nomako Amazia wuod Joash ma wuod Ahazia, ruodh Juda e Beth Shemesh. Bangʼe Jehoash nokele Jerusalem kendo nomuko ohinga mar Jerusalem chakre e Dhoranga Efraim nyaka kama ohinga ogomogo, bor kama ne omuko ne romo fut mia abich gi piero ochiko gachiel.

And Joash the king of Israel took Amaziah king of Judah, the son of Joash, the son of Jehoahaz, at Bethshemesh, and brought him to Jerusalem, and broke down the wall of Jerusalem from the gate of Ephraim to the corner gate, four hundred cubits.

24 Nokawo dhahabu gi fedha duto kod gik moko duto mane oyudo e hekalu mar Nyasaye mane Obed-Edom orito kaachiel gi keno mar ruoth kod ji moko mano mako e lweny, bangʼe nodok e piny Samaria.

And he took all the gold and the silver, and all the vessels that were found in the house of God with Obededom, and the treasures of the king’s house, the hostages also, and returned to Samaria.

25 Amazia wuod Joash ruodh Juda nodak higni apar gabich bangʼ tho Jehoash wuod Jehoahaz ruodh Israel.

And Amaziah the son of Joash king of Judah lived after the death of Joash son of Jehoahaz king of Israel fifteen years.

26 To weche mamoko mag loch Amazia kar chakruokgi nyaka gikogi donge ondikgi e kitap ruodhi mag Juda kod Israel?

Now the rest of the acts of Amaziah, first and last, behold, are they not written in the book of the kings of Judah and Israel?

27 Chakre ndalo mane Amazia oweyo luwo Jehova Nyasaye, negichikone obadho e Jerusalem mi oringo odhi Lakish, to negioro ji bangʼe Lakish ma onege kuno.

Now after the time that Amaziah turned away from following the LORD they made a conspiracy against him in Jerusalem; and he fled to Lachish: but they sent to Lachish after him, and slew him there.

28 Noduog ringre kotingʼ gi faras kendo noyike but kwerene e Dala Maduongʼ mar Juda.

And they brought him upon horses, and buried him with his fathers in the city of Judah.
