2 Weche Mag Ndalo 28
1 Ahaz ne ja-higni piero ariyo kane obedo ruoth kendo nobedo e loch kodak Jerusalem kuom higni apar gauchiel kodak Jerusalem. To timbene ne ok longʼo e nyim wangʼ Jehova Nyasaye kaka timbe Daudi kwar mare ne chalo.
Achaz was twenty years old when he began to reign, and he reigned sixteen years in Jerusalem: he did not that which was right in the sight of the Lord as David his father had done,
2 Noluwo timbe ruodhi mag Israel kendo nothedho kido milamogo Baal.
But walked in the ways of the kings of Israel; moreover also he cast statues for Baalim.
3 Notimo liswa e Holo mar Ben Hinom kendo nochiwo nyithinde e mach kaka misango miwangʼo pep koluwo timbe mamono mag ogendini mane Jehova Nyasaye oriembo e nyim jo-Israel.
It was he that burnt incense in the valley of Benennom, and consecrated his sons in the fire according to the manner of the nations, which the Lord slew at the coming of the children of Israel.
4 Notimo misengini kendo owangʼo ubani mangʼwe ngʼar e kuonde motingʼore malo mag lemo, ewi gode matindo kendo e bwo yiende motimo otiep.
He sacrificed also, and burnt incense in the high places, and on the hills, and under every green tree.
5 Omiyo Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasache nochiwe e lwet ruodh Aram mi jo-Aram noloye kendo nomako joge mangʼeny kaka joma otwe kendo noterogi Damaski. Bende nochiwe e lwet ruodh Israel, mane onego joge mangʼeny.
And the Lord his God delivered him into the hands of the king of Syria, who defeated him, and took a great booty out of his kingdom, and carried it to Damascus: he was also delivered into the hands of the king of Israel, who overthrew him with a great slaughter.
6 Kuom odiechiengʼ achiel Peka wuod Remalia nonego jolweny mag Juda alufu achiel nikech Juda nosejwangʼo Jehova Nyasaye, ma Nyasach kweregi.
For Phacee the son of Romelia slew of Juda a hundred and twenty thousand in one day, all valiant men: because they had forsaken the Lord the God of their fathers.
7 Zikri thuon Efraim nonego Maseya wuod ruoth kod Azrikam jatelo mane ochungʼ ne od ruoth kod Elkana mane jalup ruoth.
At the same time Zechri a powerful man of Ephraim, slew Maasias the king’s son, and Ezricam the governor of his house, and Elcana who was next to the king.
8 Jo-Israel nomako owetegi alufu mia ariyo mane gin mon kod yawuowi kod nyiri. Bende ne giyako mwandu mangʼeny mane gitingʼo gidwoko Samaria.
And the children of Israel carried away of their brethren two hundred thousand women, boys, and girls, and an immense booty: and they brought it to Samaria.
9 To noyudo ka janabi mar Jehova Nyasaye ma nyinge Oded ne ni kanyo kendo nodhi moromo kod jolweny kane gidwogo Samaria. Nowachonegi niya, “Jehova Nyasaye, ma Nyasach kwereu osechiwo jo-Juda e lwetu nikech nokecho kodgi, to un to koro usenegogi gi ich wangʼ marach omiyo wachni osetundo ira e polo.
At that time there was a prophet of the Lord there, whose name was Oded: and he went out to meet the army that came to Samaria, and said to them: Behold the Lord the God of your fathers being angry with Juda, hath delivered them into your hands, and you have butchered them cruelly, so that your cruelty hath reached up to heaven.
10 To koro udwaro keto chwo kod mond Juda gi Jerusalem wasumbiniu. Donge un bende un joketho kuom timo richo e nyim Jehova Nyasaye, ma Nyasachu?
Moreover you have a mind to keep under the children of Juda and Jerusalem for your bondmen and bondwomen, which ought not to be done: for you have sinned in this against the Lord your God.
11 Omiyo chikuru itu maber! Weuru joweteu ma usemako odogi nimar mirima mager osemako Jehova Nyasaye nikech un.”
But hear ye my counsel, and release the captives that you have brought of your brethren, because a great indignation of the Lord hangeth over you.
12 Eka jotelo moko mag Efraim kaka Azaria wuod Jehohanan gi Berekia wuod Meshilemoth gi Jehizkia wuod Shalum kod Amasa wuod Hadlai bende nodhi mokwero jogo mane oa e lweny.
Then some of the chief men of the sons of Ephraim, Azarias the son of Johanan, Barachias the son of Mosollamoth, Ezechias the son of Sellum, and Amasa the son of Adali, stood up against them that came from the war.
13 Negiwacho niya, “Ok unyal kelo jogo ma umako kaeni, nimar kutimo kamano to wanabed joketho e nyim Jehova Nyasaye. Koso udwaro medo richo ewi mago ma wasetimo? Richo ma wasetimo duongʼ moloyo kendo mirimbe mager ni kuom Israel.”
And they said to them: You shall not bring in the captives hither, lest we sin against the Lord. Why will you add to our sins, and heap up upon our former offences? for the sin is great, and the fierce anger of the Lord hangeth over Israel.
14 Kuom mano, jolwenygi noweyo joma negimako kaachiel gi mwandu mane gipeyo ka gin e nyim jotelo kod joma nochokore duto.
So the soldiers left the spoils, and all that they had taken, before the princes and all the multitude.
15 Joma noluong nying-gigo nokawo jogo mane omaki kendo negimiyo joma ne niduge duto lewni mane gigolo kuom gik mane gipeyo. Ne gimiyogi lewni kod wuoche, chiemo kod math, ne giwiro kuonde manoriemo gi mo. Jogo duto mane ool notingʼ e punde ka giterogi Jeriko, ma bende iluongo ni Dala Maduongʼ mar Othidhe kuma jowetegi mamoko ne nitiere, bangʼe negidok Samaria.
And the men, whom we mentioned above, rose up and took the captives, and with the spoils clothed all them that were naked: and when they had clothed and shed them, and refreshed them with meat and drink, and anointed them because of their labour, and had taken care of them, they set such of them as could not walk, and were feeble, upon beasts, and brought them to Jericho the city of palm trees to their brethren, and they returned to Samaria.
16 E kindeno ruoth Ahaz nokwayo ruodh Asuria mondo okonye.
At that time king Achaz sent to the king of the Assyrians asking help.
17 Jo-Edom bende nomonjo jo-Juda kendo negimako ji mangʼeny.
And the Edomites came and slew many of Juda, and took a great booty.
18 Jo-Filistia bende nosemonjo mier mane ni e bwo gode matindo kod man Negev ei Juda. Negimako kendo gikawo Beth Shemesh, Aijalon kod Gederoth kaachiel gi Soko, Timna kod Gimzo koriwore gi mier matindo molworogi.
The Philistines also spread themselves among the cities of the plains, and to the south of Juda: and they took Bethsames, and Aialon, and Gaderoth, and Socho, and Thamnan, and Gamzo, with their villages, and they dwelt in them.
19 Jehova Nyasaye nodwoko jo-Juda chien nikech timbe Ahaz ruodh Israel nimar nosejiwo timbe maricho e piny Juda, kendo noseweyo luwo Jehova Nyasaye.
For the Lord had humbled Juda because of Achaz the king of Juda, for he had stripped it of help, and had contemned the Lord.
20 Tiglath-Pilesa ruodh Asuria nobiro ire to kar konye to nomonje.
And he brought, against him Thelgathphalnasar king of the Assyrians, who also afflicted him, and plundered him without any resistance.
21 Kuom mano, Ahaz nokawo gik moko mag hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye gi od ruoth kod ute joka ruoth momiyo ruodh Asuria to mano ne ok okonye.
And Achaz stripped the house of the Lord, and the house of the kings, and of the princes, and gave gifts to the king of the Assyrians, and yet it availed him nothing.
22 E ndalo mar chandruokne ruoth Ahaz nomedo weyo luwo Jehova Nyasaye.
Moreover also in the time of his distress he increased contempt against the Lord: king Achaz himself by himself,
23 Notimo liswa ni nyiseche manono mag jo-Damaski mane oseloye. Noparo niya, “Nikech nyiseche manono mag ruodhi jo-Aram nokonyogi, abiro timo nigi liswa mondo mi gikonya.” To negimiyo opodho kaachiel gi jo-Israel.
Sacrificed victims to the gods of Damascus that struck him, and he said: The gods of the kings of Syria help them, and I will appease them with victims, and they will help me; whereas on the contrary they were the ruin of him, and of all Israel.
24 Ahaz nochoko gige lemo mag hekalu mar Nyasaye mogologi oko. Eka noloro dhout hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye bangʼe nogero kende mag misango e kamoro amora ma yore mag Jerusalem ogomoe.
Then Achaz having taken away all the vessels of the house of God, and broken them, shut up the doors of the temple of God, and made himself altars in all the corners of Jerusalem.
25 Nogero kuonde motingʼore gi malo mag lemo e miech Juda duto mondo otim misango ne nyiseche mamoko kokwinyogo Jehova Nyasaye, ma Nyasach kweregi mondo owangʼ iye.
And in all the cities of Juda he built altars to burn frankincense, and he provoked the Lord the God of his fathers to wrath.
26 Gik mamoko duto mane otimo e ndalo lochne kod gik manotimo duto koa kar chakruokgi nyaka gikogi ondikie kitap ruodhi mag Juda kod Israel.
But the rest of his acts, and all his works first and last are written in the book of the kings of Juda and Israel.
27 Ahaz notho moyweyo gi kwerene kendo noyike e dala maduongʼ mar Jerusalem; to ne ok oike e liete ruodhi mag Israel. Kendo Hezekia wuode nobedo ruoth kare.
And Achaz slept with his fathers, and they buried him in the city of Jerusalem: for they received him not into the sepulchres of the kings of Israel. And Ezechias his son reigned in his stead.
