2 Ruodhi 14
1 E higa mar ariyo mar loch Jehoash wuod Jehoahaz ruodh Israel, Amazia wuod Joash ruodh Juda nobedo ruoth.
In the second year of Jehoash son of Jehoahaz, king of Israel, Amaziah son of Joash, king of Judah, began to reign.
2 Ne en ja-higni piero ariyo gabich kane obedo ruoth kendo norito Jerusalem kuom higni piero ariyo gochiko. Min mare ne nyinge Jehoadin, nyar Jerusalem.
He was twenty-five years old when he began to reign; he reigned twenty-nine years in Jerusalem. His mother's name was Jehoaddan, of Jerusalem.
3 Notimo gima kare e nyim Jehova Nyasaye, to ok kaka Daudi kwar mare notimo. Noluwo tim wuon mare Joash e gik moko duto.
He did what was right in the eyes of Yahweh, yet not like David his father. He did everything that Joash, his father, had done.
4 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.
But the high places were not taken away. The people still sacrificed and burned incense at the high places.
5 Bangʼ ka pinyruodhe nosegurore maber, nonego jotelo mane onego wuon mare mane ruoth.
It came about that as soon as his rule was well established, he killed the servants who had murdered his father, the king.
6 Kata kamano ne ok onego yawuot jonekgo koluwo gima ondikie 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.”
Yet he did not put the sons of the murderers to death; instead, he acted according to what was written in the Book of the Law Moses, as Yahweh had commanded, saying, “The fathers must not be put to death for their children, neither must the children be put to death for their parents. Instead, every person must be put to death for his own sin.”
7 Amazia ema ne oloyo jolweny jo-Edom alufu apar e holo mar Chumbi kendo nomako Sela e lweny, moloko nyinge ni Jokthel, kendo pod iluonge kamano nyaka chil kawuono.
He killed ten thousand soldiers of Edom in the Valley of Salt; he also took Sela in war and called it Joktheel, which is what it is called to this day.
8 Bangʼ mano Amazia nooro joote ir Jehoash wuod Jehoahaz, ma wuod Jehu ruodh Israel, kosieme niya, “Bi warom wangʼ gi wangʼ.”
Then Amaziah sent messengers to Jehoash son of Jehoahaz son of Jehu king of Israel, saying, “Come, let us meet each other face to face in battle.”
9 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.
But Jehoash the king of Israel sent messengers back to Amaziah king of Judah, saying, “A thistle that was in Lebanon sent a message to a cedar in Lebanon, saying, 'Give your daughter to my son for a wife,' but a wild beast in Lebanon walked by and trampled down the thistle.
10 En adier ni iseloyo jo-Edom kendo koro iwuoyo marach. Bed mamor kuom lochnino, to kik iwuogi e dala! Angʼo momiyo imanyo lweny mabiro tieki kaachiel gi jo-Juda duto?”
You have indeed attacked Edom, and your heart has lifted you up. Take pride in your victory, but stay at home, for why should you cause yourself trouble and fall, both you and Judah with you?”
11 Kata kamano Amazia ne ok odewo, omiyo Jehoash ruodh Israel nomonje. Jehoash kod Amazia ruodh Juda ne joromo e lweny e dala mar Beth Shemesh man Juda.
But Amaziah would not listen. So Jehoash king of Israel attacked and he and Amaziah king of Judah met each other face to face at Beth Shemesh, which belongs to Judah.
12 Jo-Israel noloyo jo-Juda kendo ngʼato ka ngʼato noringo kochomo dalane.
Judah was defeated by Israel, and every man fled home.
13 Jehoash ruodh Israel nomako Amazia ruodh Juda, ma wuod Joash, ma wuod Ahazia e Beth Shemesh. Bangʼe Jehoash nodhi 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.
Jehoash king of Israel, captured Amaziah, king of Judah son of Jehoash son of Ahaziah, at Beth Shemesh. He came to Jerusalem and tore down the wall of Jerusalem from the Ephraim Gate to the Corner Gate, four hundred cubits in distance.
14 Nokawo dhahabu gi fedha duto kod gik moko duto mane oyudo e hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye kod mwandu duto mane ni e od ruoth, bende nokawo. Ji moko mano mako e lweny, bangʼe nodok e piny Samaria.
He took all the gold and silver, all the objects that were found in the house of Yahweh, and the valuable things in the king's palace, with hostages also, and returned to Samaria.
15 To kuom gik mamoko duto mane otimore e ndalo loch Jehoash, gi gik moko duto mane otimo kod teko mane okedogi Amazia ruodh Juda, donge ondikgi e kitepe mag weche ruodhi mag Israel?
As for the other matters concerning Jehoash, all that he did, his power, and how he fought with Amaziah king of Judah, are they not written in the book of the events of the kings of Israel?
16 Jehoash notho moyweyo gi kwerene kendo noyike Samaria gi ruodhi Israel kendo Jeroboam wuode nobedo ruoth kare.
Then Jehoash slept with his ancestors and was buried in Samaria with the kings of Israel, and Jeroboam, his son, became king in his place.
17 Amazia wuod Joash ruodh Juda nodak higni apar gabich bangʼ tho Jehoash wuod Jehoahaz ruodh Israel.
Amaziah son of Joash, king of Judah, lived fifteen years after the death of Jehoash son of Jehoahaz, king of Israel.
18 To weche mamoko mag loch Amazia, donge ondikgi e kitap weche ruodhi mag Juda?
As for the other matters concerning Amaziah, are they not written in the book of the events of the kings of Judah?
19 Negichikone obadho e Jerusalem mi oringo odhi Lakish, to negioro ji bangʼe Lakish ma onege kuno.
They made a conspiracy against Amaziah in Jerusalem, and he fled to Lachish. He fled to Lachish, but they sent men after him to Lachish and killed him there.
20 Noduog ringre kotingʼ gi faras kendo noyike Jerusalem but kwerene e Dala Maduongʼ mar Daudi.
They brought him back on horses, and he was buried with his ancestors in the city of David.
21 Eka jo-Juda duto nokawo Azaria mane hike apar gi auchiel mokete ruoth kar wuon mare Amazia.
All the people of Judah took Azariah, who was sixteen years old, and made him king in place of his father Amaziah.
22 En ema ne ogero kuonde mane omukore mag Elath, mi odwoke ne Juda bangʼ ka ruoth Amazia nosetho moike gi kwerene.
It was Azariah who rebuilt Elath and restored it to Judah, after King Amaziah slept with his ancestors.
23 E higa mar apar gabich mar Amazia wuod Joash ruodh Juda, Jeroboam wuod Jehoash ruodh Israel nobedo ruodh Samaria kendo nobedo ruoth kuom higni piero angʼwen gachiel.
In the fifteenth year of Amaziah son of Joash king of Judah, Jeroboam son of Jehoash king of Israel began to reign in Samaria; he reigned forty-one years.
24 Timbene ne richo e nyim Jehova Nyasaye kendo ne ok olokore weyo yore mag richo mar Jeroboam wuod Nebat, mane omiyo jo-Israel otimo.
He did what was evil in the sight of Yahweh. He did not depart from any of the sins of Jeroboam son of Nebat, who had caused Israel to sin.
25 En ema ne odwoko tongʼ mag Israel chakre Lebo Hamath nyaka chop Nam mar Araba, kaluwore gi wach Jehova Nyasaye, ma Nyasach Israel, mane owacho koa e dho jatichne Jona wuod Amitai, mane janabi moa Gath Hefer.
He restored the border of Israel from Lebo Hamath to the Sea of the Arabah, following the commands of the word of Yahweh, the God of Israel, which he had spoken through his servant Jonah son of Amittai, the prophet, who was from Gath Hepher.
26 Jehova Nyasaye noneno kaka joma ni Israel ne sandore malit, bedni ne gin wasumbini kata ok gin wasumbini; maonge ngʼama ne nyalo resogi.
For Yahweh saw the suffering of Israel, that it was very bitter for everyone, both slave and free, and that there was no rescuer for Israel.
27 To nikech Jehova Nyasaye ne pok owacho ni obiro golo nying jo-Israel e piny, nomiyo Jeroboam wuod Jehoash oresogi.
So Yahweh said that he would not blot out the name of Israel under heaven; instead, he saved them by the hand of Jeroboam son of Jehoash.
28 To kuom gik mamoko duto mane otimore e ndalo loch Jeroboam kod lochne e lwenje duto, kaachiel gi kaka noduogo Damaski kod Hamath mane ni e lwet Juda ne Israel; donge ondikgi e kitepe mag weche ruodhi mag Israel.
As for the other matters concerning Jeroboam, all that he did, his power, how he waged war and recovered Damascus and Hamath, which had belonged to Judah, for Israel, are they not written in the book of the events of the kings of Israel?
29 Jeroboam notho moyweyo gi kwerene, mane ruodhi mag Israel kendo Zekaria wuode nobedo ruoth kare.
Jeroboam slept with his ancestors, with the kings of Israel, and Zechariah his son became king in his place.
