2 Ruodhi 13
1 E higa mar piero ariyo gadek mar loch Joash wuod Ahazia ruodh Juda, Jehoahaz wuod Jehu nobedo ruodh Israel ka en Samaria kendo nobedo e ruoth kuom higni apar gabiriyo.
Jehoahaz, son of Jehu, became king of Israel in the twenty-third year of the reign of Joash, son of Ahaziah, king of Judah. He reigned in Samaria for seventeen years.
2 Notimo gik mamono e nyim wangʼ Jehova Nyasaye, kane oluwo timbe maricho mag Jeroboam wuod Nebat, mane omiyo jo-Israel odonje kendo ne ok olokore weyo gigo.
He did what was evil in the Lord's sight, and followed the sins that Jeroboam son of Nebat, had made Israel commit; he did not end them.
3 Kuom mano Jehova Nyasaye nokecho gi jo-Israel kendo kuom ndalo mangʼeny noweyogi e bwo loch Hazael ruodh Aram kod Ben-Hadad wuode.
So the Lord was angry with Israel, and he repeatedly allowed them to be defeated by Hazael, king of Aram, and his son Ben-hadad.
4 Eka Jehoahaz nokwayo Jehova Nyasaye kendo Jehova Nyasaye nowinje, nimar noneno kaka ruodh Aram ne sando jo-Israel malit.
Jehoahaz asked the Lord for help, and the Lord responded to his request because he saw how badly the king of Aram was treating Israel.
5 Jehova Nyasaye nochiwo ne jo-Israel jares, mi gitony gia e loch jo-Aram. Eka jo-Israel nochako odok modak e miechgi mana kaka ne gisebetie mokwongo.
The Lord gave Israel someone who would save them so they no longer were under Aramean rule. Then the Israelites were able to go back to living in safety as before.
6 To kata kamano ne ok gilokore giweyo richo mane ni e od Jeroboam, mane omiyo jo-Israel otimo, to negidhi nyime mana gi timbegi. Kendo siro mar nyasaye madhako miluongo ni Ashera nosiko kochungʼ Samaria.
Even so they did not end the sins that the house of Jeroboam had made Israel commit—they continued to follow them. The Asherah idol still stood in Samaria.
7 Jolweny mag Jehoahaz notieki makmana joidh farese piero abich, geche mag lweny apar kod jolweny mawuotho gi tiendgi alufu apar ema ne odongʼ, nikech ruodh Aram nosetieko mamoko duto kendo nomiyo gichalo mihudhwe.
All that was left of Jehoahaz's army were fifty horsemen, ten chariots, and ten thousand soldiers, for the king of Aram had destroyed the rest, turning them into dust like that when grain is threshed.
8 To kuom gik mamoko duto mane ondiki e ndalo loch Jehoahaz gi gik moko duto mane otimo, donge ondikgi e kitepe mag weche ruodhi mag Israel?
The rest of what happened in Jehoahaz's reign, all he did, and his great achievements are recorded in the Book of Chronicles of the Kings of Israel.
9 Jehoahaz nonindo moyweyo gi kwerene mi noyike Samaria kendo wuode ma Jehoash nobedo ruoth kare.
Jehoahaz died and was buried in Samaria. His son Jehoash succeeded him as king.
10 E higa mar piero adek gabiriyo mar loch Joash ruodh Juda, Jehoash wuod Jehoahaz nobedo ruodh Israel ka en piny Samaria kendo nobedo ruoth kuom higni apar gauchiel.
Jehoash, son of Jehoahaz, became king of Israel in Samaria in the thirty-seventh year of the reign of King Joash of Judah, and he reigned for sixteen years.
11 Notimo timbe mamono e wangʼ Jehova Nyasaye kendo ne ok oweyo timbe mag richo mar Jeroboam wuod Nebat, mane omiyo jo-Israel otimo; nodhi nyime kotimogi.
He did what was evil in the Lord's sight and did not end all the sins that Jeroboam, son of Nebat, had made Israel commit—he continued to follow them.
12 To kuom weche duto mane ondiki e ndalo loch Jehoash; gi gik moko duto mane otimo, kod teko mane okedogo gi Amazia ruodh Juda, donge ondikgi e kitepe mag weche ruodhi mag Israel?
The rest of what happened in Jehoash's reign, all he did, and his great achievements such as his war against Amaziah, king of Judah, are recorded in the Book of Chronicles of the Kings of Israel.
13 Jehoash nonindo moyweyo gi kwerene kendo Jeroboam nobedo ruoth kare. Jehoash noiki e piny Samaria gi ruodhi mag Israel.
Jehoash died, and Jeroboam sat on his throne. Jehoash was buried in Samaria with the kings of Israel.
14 Kane Elisha tuo gi tuo mane biro nege, Jehoash ruodh Israel nodhi nene moywage niya, “Wuora! Wuora isebedonwa kaka geche lweny kod joidh farese mag Israel!”
Elisha had become ill with a disease that would eventually kill him. Jehoash, king of Israel, went to visit him, and wept over him, saying, “My father, my father, the chariots and the horsemen of Israel!”
15 Eka Elisha nowachone niya, “Kaw atungʼ kod aserni moko,” kendo notimo kamano.
Elisha told him, “Find a bow and some arrows.” So Jehoash found a bow and some arrows.
16 Eka nowachone ruodh Israel niya, “Kaw atungʼ e lweti.” Kane osekawo atungʼno, Elisha noketo lwetene kuom lwete ruoth.
Then Elisha said to the king of Israel, “Pick up the bow.” So the king picked up the bow. Elisha placed his hands on the king's hands.
17 Elisha nokone niya, “Yaw dirisa mochomo yo wuok chiengʼ,” minoyawe. Bangʼ mano nokone niya, “Dir asere.” Kane osediro asere, Elisha nokone niya, “Mano asech loch Jehova Nyasaye kendo onyiso adier ni ibiro loyo jo-Aram modak Afek.”
“Open the east window,” he told him. So the king opened it and Elisha said, “Shoot!” So he fired an arrow. Then Elisha explained, “This is the Lord's victory arrow representing the arrow of victory over the Arameans. You will attack the Arameans in Aphek and finish them off.”
18 Eka nowachone niya, “Kaw aserni kendo ruoth nokawo asernigo.” Elisha nokone niya, “Chwo asernigo piny, mine otimo kamano nyadidek bangʼe oweyo.”
Then Elisha said, “Pick up the arrows!” So he picked them up. Elisha told the king of Israel, “Hit the ground with them!” He hit the ground three times, and then stopped.
19 Elisha ngʼat Nyasaye nokecho kode mowacho niya, “Nonego ichwogi piny nyadibich kata nyadiuchiel; eka dine iloyo jo-Aram mitiekogi chuth, to sani to ibiro loyogi mana nyadidek kende.”
The man of God got angry with him, telling him, “You should have hit the ground five or six times. Then you would have attacked the Arameans until you had completely destroyed them. But now you will only attack the Arameans three times.”
20 Elisha notho moike. E ndalogo jolwenj Moab nohero monjo pinyno e ndalo mag chwiri.
Elisha died and was buried. Raiders from the country of Moab used to invade Israel every spring.
21 Chiengʼ moro kane jo-Israel yiko ngʼato, negipo ka gineno wasigu kabiro, mi negibolo ringre ngʼatno e bur mane oike Elisha. Kane ringre ngʼatno olwar e choke Elisha, nopo ka chunye odwogo mochungʼ gi tiendene.
On time some Israelites were burying a man when suddenly they saw some raiders coming, so they quickly threw the man into Elisha's tomb. As soon as he touched Elisha's bones, the man came back to life and stood up.
22 Hazael ruodh Aram ne osando jo-Israel ndalo duto mag loch Jehoahaz.
Hazael, king of Aram, caused problems for Israel through all Jehoahaz's reign.
23 To Jehova Nyasaye notimonegi ngʼwono, kech kod miwafu koparo singruok mane otimo gi Ibrahim, Isaka kod Jakobo. To nyaka chil kawuono Jehova Nyasaye pok obedo gi paro mar tiekogi kata riembogi e wangʼe.
But the Lord graciously helped them and was kind to them. He looked after them because of his agreement with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. Even to this day he's been unwilling to destroy them or to throw them out of his presence.
24 Hazael ruodh Aram notho kendo Ben-Hadad wuode nobedo ruoth kare.
When Hazael, king of Aram, died, his son Ben-hadad succeeded him as king.
25 Eka Jehoash wuod Jehoahaz noduogo mier mane oyudo Ben-Hadad wuod Hazael nosemayo Jehoahaz wuon mare e lweny. Jehoash noloyo Ben-Hadad nyadidek e lweny mine odwoko miergo duto e lwet jo-Israel.
Then Jehoash, son of Jehoahaz, recovered from Ben-hadad son of Hazael, the towns that Hazael had captured from his father Jehoahaz. Jehoash defeated Ben-hadad three times, and so recaptured the Israelite towns.
