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.

A son of twenty and five years hath Amaziah reigned, and twenty and nine years he hath reigned in Jerusalem, and the name of his mother [is] Jehoaddan of Jerusalem,

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

and he doth that which is right in the eyes of Jehovah — only, not with a perfect heart.

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

And it cometh to pass, when the kingdom hath been strong upon him, that he slayeth his servants, those smiting 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.”

and their sons he hath not put to death, but [did] as is written in the law, in the book of Moses, whom Jehovah commanded, saying, 'Fathers do not die for sons, and sons die not for fathers, but each for his own sin they die.'

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.

And Amaziah gathereth Judah, and appointeth them, according to the house of the fathers, for heads of the thousands, and for heads of the hundreds, for all Judah and Benjamin; and he inspecteth them from a son of twenty years and upward, and findeth them three hundred thousand chosen ones, going forth to the host, holding spear and target.

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

And he hireth out of Israel a hundred thousand mighty ones of valour, with a 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.

and a man of God hath come in unto him, saying, 'O king, the host of Israel doth not go with thee; for Jehovah is not with Israel — all the sons 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 art going — do [it], be strong for battle, God doth cause thee to stumble before an enemy, for there is power in God to help, and to cause to stumble.'

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 saith to the man of God, 'And what — to do for the hundred talents that I have given to the troop of Israel?' And the man of God saith, 'Jehovah hath more to give to thee than this.'

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

And Amaziah separateth them — for the troop that hath come in unto him from Ephraim to go to their own place, and their anger doth burn mightily against Judah, and they turn back to their place in the heat of anger.

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

And Amaziah hath strengthened himself, and leadeth his people, and goeth to the Valley of Salt, and smiteth the sons 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 ten thousand alive have the sons of Judah taken captive, and they bring them to the top of the rock, and cast them from the top of the rock, and all of them have been broken.

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.

And the sons of the troop that Amaziah hath sent back from going with him to battle — they rush against cities of Judah, from Samaria even unto Beth-Horon, and smite of them three thousand, and seize much prey.

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

And it cometh to pass, after the coming in of Amaziah from smiting the Edomites, that he bringeth in the gods of the sons of Seir, and establisheth them to him for gods, and before them doth bow himself, and to them he maketh perfume.

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?”

And the anger of Jehovah burneth against Amaziah, and He sendeth unto him a prophet, and he saith unto him, 'Why hast thou sought the gods of the people that have not delivered their 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 cometh to pass, in his speaking unto him, that he saith to him, 'For a counsellor to the king have we appointed thee? cease for thee; why do they smite thee?' And the prophet ceaseth, and saith, 'I have known that God hath counselled 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.”

And Amaziah king of Judah taketh counsel, and sendeth unto Joash son of Jehoahaz, son of Jehu, king of Israel, saying,

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.

'Come, we look one another in the face.' And Joash king of Israel sendeth unto Amaziah king of Judah, saying, 'The thorn that [is] in Lebanon hath sent unto the cedar that [is] in Lebanon, saying, Give thy daughter to my son for a wife; and pass by doth a beast of the field that [is] in Lebanon, and treadeth down the thorn.

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 hast said, Lo, I have smitten Edom; and thy heart hath lifted thee up to boast; now, abide in thy house, why dost thou stir thyself up in evil, that thou hast fallen, 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.

And Amaziah hath not hearkened, for from God it [is] in order to give them into hand, because they have sought 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.

and go up doth Joash king of Israel, and they look one another in the face, he and Amaziah king of Judah, in Beth-Shemesh, that [is] Judah's,

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

and Judah is smitten before Israel, and they flee — each to his tents.

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 Amaziah king of Judah, son of Joash, son of Jehoahaz, hath Joash king of Israel caught in Beth-Shemesh, and bringeth him in to Jerusalem, and breaketh down in the wall of Jerusalem from the gate of Ephraim unto the gate of the corner, 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 [taketh] all the gold, and the silver, and all the vessels that are found in the house of God with Obed-Edom, and the treasures of the house of the king, and the sons of the pledges, and turneth back to Samaria.

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

And Amaziah son of Joash, king of Judah, liveth 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?

and the rest of the matters of Amaziah, the first and the last, lo, are they not written on the books 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.

And from the time that Amaziah hath turned aside from after Jehovah — they make a conspiracy against him in Jerusalem, and he fleeth to Lachish, and they send after him to Lachish, and put him to death there,

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

and lift him up on the horses, and bury him with his fathers in the city of Judah.
