2 Ruodhi 12
1 E higa mar abiriyo mar loch Jehu, Joash nobedo ruoth kendo nobedo e loch Jerusalem kuom higni piero angʼwen. Min mare ne iluongo ni Zibia; mane aa Bersheba.
Jehoash began to reign in the seventh year of Jehu, and he reigned forty years in Jerusalem. His mother’s name was Zibiah of Beersheba.
2 Joash notimo gima ber e wangʼ Jehova Nyasaye e higni duto mane Jehoyada jadolo ne ngʼadone rieko.
Jehoash did that which was right in the LORD’s eyes all his days in which Jehoiada the priest instructed him.
3 Kata kamano kuonde motingʼore gi malo mag wangʼo misengini ne ok omuki kendo ji nodhi nyime mana gi chiwo misengini kod wangʼo ubani mangʼwe ngʼar kanyo.
However, the high places were not taken away. The people still sacrificed and burned incense in the high places.
4 Joash nowachone jodolo niya, “Chokuru pesa duto mokel kaka chiwo mag pwodhruok e hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye; pesa moyudi e kwano ji, pesa moyudi e singruok mar ngʼato e ngimane kod pesa ma ngʼato ochiwo kuom hero mare owuon.
Jehoash said to the priests, “All the money of the holy things that is brought into the LORD’s house, in current money, the money of the people for whom each man is evaluated, and all the money that it comes into any man’s heart to bring into the LORD’s house,
5 Weuru jadolo ka jadolo oyud pesa koa kuom achiel kuom jokan pesa; pesano onego olosgo kamoro amora ma okethore ei hekalu.”
let the priests take it to them, each man from his donor; and they shall repair the damage to the house, wherever any damage is found.”
6 Bangʼ higni piero ariyo gadek ka ruoth Joash osebedo e loch; jodolo ne pok oloso kuonde momukore ei hekalu.
But it was so, that in the twenty-third year of King Jehoash the priests had not repaired the damage to the house.
7 Kuom mano ruoth Joash noluongo Jehoyada jadolo kod jonabi mamoko, mopenjogi niya, “Angʼo momiyo ok ulos kuonde mane okethore e hekalu? Kik uchak ukaw pesa ir jokenou, to utergi ne joma onego olos kuonde momukore e hekalu.”
Then King Jehoash called for Jehoiada the priest, and for the other priests, and said to them, “Why aren’t you repairing the damage to the house? Now therefore take no more money from your treasurers, but deliver it for repair of the damage to the house.”
8 Jodolo noyie ni ok gibi choko pesa kendo kuom ji kendo gin giwegi bende ok gibi loso kuonde mokethore mag hekalu.
The priests consented that they should take no more money from the people, and not repair the damage to the house.
9 Jehoyada jadolo nokawo sanduku moro, motucho raumne kendo nokete e bat korachwich mar kendo mar misango kama ochomore gi dhood hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye. Pesa duto mane donjo e hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye, jodolo ma jorit dhoot ne ketogi e sandukuno.
But Jehoiada the priest took a chest and bored a hole in its lid, and set it beside the altar, on the right side as one comes into the LORD’s house; and the priests who kept the threshold put all the money that was brought into the LORD’s house into it.
10 Kinde duto mane gineno ka pesa opongʼo sanduku, jagoro maka ruoth kod jadolo maduongʼ ne biro kwano pesa mane okel e hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye kendo ketogi e mifuke.
When they saw that there was much money in the chest, the king’s scribe and the high priest came up, and they put it in bags and counted the money that was found in the LORD’s house.
11 Ka pesago ne osengʼe kwan-gi, ne gimiyogi nyipeche mane ochungʼ ne tich loso hekalu. Kanyo bende ema ne gigoloe pesa ma ichulo joma tiyo ei hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye ma gin jogo randa, jogedo kod jopa kite.
They gave the money that was weighed out into the hands of those who did the work, who had the oversight of the LORD’s house; and they paid it out to the carpenters and the builders who worked on the LORD’s house,
12 Negingʼiewo bepe kendo gipayo kite mondo olosgo kuonde mokethore e hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye, kendo chulo gik moko duto mane dwarore mondo hekalu oduog kare.
and to the masons and the stone cutters, and for buying timber and cut stone to repair the damage to the LORD’s house, and for all that was laid out for the house to repair it.
13 Pesa mane okel e hekalu ne ok otigo kuom loso tewni mag fedha gi gik mingʼadogo otambi mar teyni, kod tewni, kod bakunde mag kiro remo, kaachiel gi turumbete kod gik moko duto mag dhahabu gi fedha mar hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye,
But there were not made for the LORD’s house cups of silver, snuffers, basins, trumpets, any vessels of gold or vessels of silver, of the money that was brought into the LORD’s house;
14 to pesano notigo kuom chulo jotich mane loso kuonde mane omukore e hekalu.
for they gave that to those who did the work, and repaired the LORD’s house with it.
15 Ne ok gidwar ni mondo olernegi kaka pesa otiyo e lwet joma ne omi mondo ochul jotich, nimar ne gin joma ogen.
Moreover they didn’t demand an accounting from the men into whose hand they delivered the money to give to those who did the work; for they dealt faithfully.
16 To pesa mane ogol kuom misango mar pwodhruok e ketho gi mag chiwo migolo kuom richo motim ok ne kel ei hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye, mago ne iwene jodolo.
The money for the trespass offerings and the money for the sin offerings was not brought into the LORD’s house. It was the priests’.
17 E ndalono ema Hazael ruodh Aram ne odhi momonjo Gath mi omake. Eka ne odhi mondo omonj Jerusalem bende.
Then Hazael king of Syria went up and fought against Gath, and took it; and Hazael set his face to go up to Jerusalem.
18 To Joash ruodh Juda nokawo gik moko duto mowal mane kwerene kaka Jehoshafat, Jehoram kod Ahazia mane gin ruodhi mag Juda osechiwo ne Jehova Nyasaye. Gigo duto Joash noorone Hazael ruodh Aram, kaachiel gi gik moko duto mane en owuon osechiwo ne Jehova Nyasaye; kaachiel gi dhahabu duto mane ni e kar keno mar hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye kod kar keno mar od ruoth kendo Hazael ne ok omonjo Jerusalem.
Jehoash king of Judah took all the holy things that Jehoshaphat and Jehoram and Ahaziah, his fathers, kings of Judah, had dedicated, and his own holy things, and all the gold that was found in the treasures of the LORD’s house, and of the king’s house, and sent it to Hazael king of Syria; and he went away from Jerusalem.
19 To kuom weche moko mondiki e ndalo loch Joash gi gik moko duto mane otimo donge gin e kitabu mondikie weche mag ndalo mag ruodhi Juda?
Now the rest of the acts of Joash, and all that he did, aren’t they written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?
20 Jodonge nowinjore mondo ondhoge mi onege e Beth Milo, e yo madhi mwalo Sila.
His servants arose and made a conspiracy, and struck Joash at the house of Millo, on the way that goes down to Silla.
21 Jodonge mane onege ne gin Jozabad wuod Shimeath kod Jehozabad wuod Shomer. Notho moike kod kwerene e Dala Maduongʼ mar Daudi kendo Amazia wuode nobedo ruoth kare.
For Jozacar the son of Shimeath, and Jehozabad the son of Shomer, his servants, struck him, and he died; and they buried him with his fathers in David’s city; and Amaziah his son reigned in his place.
