2 Weche Mag Ndalo 26
1 Bangʼe jo-Juda duto nokawo Uzia mane ja-higni apar gauchiel kendo negikete ruoth kar wuon mare Amazia.
All the people of Judah took Uzziah, who was sixteen years old, and made him king in place of his father Amaziah.
2 Kane wuon mare osetho moike kaka kwerene, nochako ogero Elath moduoke ne jo-Juda.
Uzziah was the one who rebuilt Eloth and restored it to Judah after King Amaziah rested with his fathers.
3 Uzia ne ja-higni apar gauchiel kane odoko ruoth kendo nobedo ruoth kodak Jerusalem kuom higni piero abich gariyo. Min mare ne nyinge Jekolia ma nyar Jerusalem.
Uzziah was sixteen years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem fifty-two years. His mother’s name was Jecoliah; she was from Jerusalem.
4 Notimo gima kare e nyim wangʼ Jehova Nyasaye mana kaka wuon-gi Amazia nosetimo.
And he did what was right in the eyes of the LORD, just as his father Amaziah had done.
5 Noketo chunye kuom Nyasaye e ndalo mag Zekaria, ngʼat ma nopuonje luoro Nyasaye. E ndalo duto mane odwaro Jehova Nyasaye, Nyasaye nomiye gweth.
He sought God throughout the days of Zechariah, who instructed him in the fear of God. And as long as he sought the LORD, God gave him success.
6 Nodhi kedo kod jo-Filistia momuko ohinga mar Gath gi Jabne kod Ashdod. Bangʼe nogero mier machiegni kod Ashdod, kod kuonde mamoko ei piny Filistia.
Uzziah went out to wage war against the Philistines, and he tore down the walls of Gath, Jabneh, and Ashdod. Then he built cities near Ashdod and among the Philistines.
7 Nyasaye nokonye loyo jo-Filistia kod jo-Arabu mane odak Gur Baal kod jo-Meun.
God helped him against the Philistines, against the Arabs living in Gur-baal, and against the Meunites.
8 Jo-Amon nokelo osuru ne Uzia kendo humbe nolandore nyaka e tongʼ-gi kod jo-Misri nimar nosedoko ngʼama duongʼ ahinya.
The Ammonites brought tribute to Uzziah, and his fame spread as far as the border of Egypt, for he had become exceedingly powerful.
9 Uzia nogero kuonde maboyo mag ngʼicho Jerusalem e Dhorangach miluongo ni Ranga Kama Ohinga Ogomogo gi Ranga Holo kod e giko ohinga kendo nogerogi motegno.
Uzziah built towers in Jerusalem at the Corner Gate, the Valley Gate, and the angle in the wall, and he fortified them.
10 E piny motimo ongoro bende nogeroe kuonde motingʼore mag siro lweny kendo nokunyo yewni mangʼeny nikech ne en kod jamni mangʼeny e tie gode kod e piny pap. Bende ne en kod joma ne tiyone e puothe kod puothene mag mzabibu manie gode kaachiel gi kuonde momew nikech nohero pur.
Since he had much livestock in the foothills and in the plain, he built towers in the desert and dug many cisterns. And since he was a lover of the soil, he had farmers and vinedressers in the hill country and in the fertile fields.
11 Uzia ne ni kod jolweny motiegore maber moikore dhiye kedo kaluwore kod migepegi mana kaka Jeyel jagoro kod Maseya jatelo nopogogi kaluwore kaka Hanania mane achiel kuom jodong ruoth nochikogi.
Uzziah had an army ready for battle that went out to war by assigned divisions, as recorded by Jeiel the scribe and Maaseiah the officer under the direction of Hananiah, one of the royal officers.
12 Kar romb jotelo mag anywola mane otelo ne jolweny ne gin alufu ariyo gi mia auchiel.
The total number of family leaders of the mighty men of valor was 2,600.
13 Jogo mane gitelonegi ne gin jolweny mane otieg ne lweny ne gin ji alufu mia adek gabiriyo kod mia abich, joma ngʼeny moloyo madikony ruoth kedo gi wasike.
Under their authority was an army of 307,500 trained for war, a powerful force to support the king against his enemies.
14 Uzia noloso ni jolweny kuodi gi tonge gi ogute gi akor mag nyinyo gi atunge gi kite midiro gorujre.
Uzziah supplied the entire army with shields, spears, helmets, armor, bows, and slingstones.
15 Noloso gir lweny moro midirogo aserni gi kite madongo mane joma riek ofwenyo moketo kuonde maboyo mag ngʼicho kod kuonde ma ohinga ogomogo Jerusalem. Humbe nolandore mabor kendo malach nikech nokonye ahinya nyaka nobedo motegno miwuoro.
And in Jerusalem he made skillfully designed devices to shoot arrows and catapult large stones from the towers and corners. So his fame spread far and wide, for he was helped tremendously so that he became powerful.
16 Kane Uzia osedoko motegno, sungruokne nomiyo opodho. Noweyo luwo Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasache mi nodonjo e hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye mondo owangʼ ubani e kendo mar misango mar ubani.
But when Uzziah grew powerful, his arrogance led to his own destruction. He was unfaithful to the LORD his God, for he entered the temple of the LORD to burn incense on the altar of incense.
17 To Azaria jadolo kod jodolo mamoko mag Jehova Nyasaye piero aboro ma jochir noluwe kuno.
Then Azariah the priest, along with eighty brave priests of the LORD, went in after him.
18 Negikwere kagiwacho niya, “Uzia, ok en tiji wangʼo ni Jehova Nyasaye ubani; nimar mano en tij jodolo ma nyikwa Harun mane opwodhi mondo giwangʼ ubani. Wuogi e kama ler mar lemo nikech iseketho, omiyo Jehova Nyasaye ok nogwedhi.”
They took their stand against King Uzziah and said, “Uzziah, you have no right to offer incense to the LORD. Only the priests, the descendants of Aaron, are consecrated to burn incense. Leave the sanctuary, for you have acted unfaithfully; you will not receive honor from the LORD God.”
19 Uzia mane oyudo ka oikore gi tap mach e lwete mondo owangʼ ubani nokecho. Kane mirima omake kod jodolo, dhoho nolandore e lela wangʼe e nyim jodolo e hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye but kendo mar misango miwangʼoe ubani.
Uzziah, with a censer in his hand to offer incense, was enraged. But while he raged against the priests in their presence in the house of the LORD before the altar of incense, leprosy broke out on his forehead.
20 Kane Azaria jadolo maduongʼ gi jodolo duto norange, negineno ni en kod dhoho e lela wangʼe mine gigole oko mapiyo. To en owuon bende noreto mapiyo mondo owuogi nikech Jehova Nyasaye nosechwade.
When Azariah the chief priest and all the priests turned to him and saw his leprous forehead, they rushed him out. Indeed, he himself hurried to get out, because the LORD had afflicted him.
21 Ruoth Uzia nobedo ja-dhoho nyaka chiengʼ thone, emomiyo nodak e ot kar kende ka en gi dhoho kendo ne ok oyiene donjo e hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye. Jotham wuode ema ne rito dala ruoth kendo norito piny.
So King Uzziah was a leper until the day of his death. He lived in isolation, leprous and cut off from the house of the LORD, while his son Jotham had charge of the royal palace to govern the people of the land.
22 Weche mamoko mag loch Uzia koa chakruokgi nyaka gikogi ondikgi e kitap janabi Isaya wuod Amoz.
As for the rest of the acts of Uzziah, from beginning to end, they are recorded by the prophet Isaiah son of Amoz.
23 Uzia notho moyweyo gi kwerene kendo noyike machiegni gi paw liete ruodhi nikech ji nowacho niya, “Ne en kod dhoho.” Kendo Jotham wuode nobedo ruoth kare.
And Uzziah rested with his fathers and was buried near them in a field of burial that belonged to the kings; for the people said, “He was a leper.” And his son Jotham reigned in his place.
