2 Ruodhi 16

1 E higa mar apar gabiriyo mar loch Peka wuod Remalia, Ahaz wuod Jotham ruodh Juda nobedo ruoth.

In the seventeenth year of Pekah son of Remaliah reigned hath Ahaz son of Jotham king of Judah.

2 Ahaz ne ja-higni piero ariyo kane obedo ruoth kendo nobedo e loch kodak Jerusalem kuom higni apar gauchiel. To timbene ne ok longʼo e nyim wangʼ Jehova Nyasaye kaka timbe Daudi kwar mare ne chalo.

A son of twenty years [is] Ahaz in his reigning, and sixteen years he hath reigned in Jerusalem, and he hath not done that which [is] right in the eyes of Jehovah his God, like David his father,

3 Noluwo timbe ruodhi mag Israel kendo nochiwo wuode mondo otimgo liswa kaka misango miwangʼo pep koluwo timbe mamono mag ogendini mane Jehova Nyasaye oriembo e nyim jo-Israel.

and he walketh in the way of the kings of Israel, and also his son he hath caused to pass over into fire, according to the abominations of the nations that Jehovah dispossessed from the presence of the sons 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.

and he sacrificeth and maketh perfume in high places, and on the heights, and under every green tree.

5 Eka Rezin ruodh Aram kod Peka wuod Remalia ruodh Israel nowuok dhi gore gi Jerusalem mi omako Ahaz, to ne ok ginyal loye.

Then doth Rezin king of Aram go up, and Pekah son of Remaliah king of Israel, to Jerusalem, to battle, and they lay siege to Ahaz, and they have not been able to fight.

6 E kindeno Rezin ruodh Aram ne odwogo Elath e lwet Aram koriembo jo-Juda. Bangʼe jo-Edom nodonjo Elath kendo gidak kuno nyaka chil kawuono.

At that time hath Rezin king of Aram brought back Elath to Aram, and casteth out the Jews from Elath, and the Aramaeans have come in to Elath, and dwell there unto this day.

7 Ahaz nooro joote mondo okone Tiglath-Pilesa ruodh Asuria kowacho niya, “An jatichni kendo anie e bwo lochni. Bi mondo iresa e lwet ruodh Aram kendo e lwet ruodh Israel mosemonja.”

And Ahaz sendeth messengers unto Tiglath-Pileser king of Asshur, saying, 'Thy servant and thy son [am] I; come up and save me out of the hand of the king of Aram, and out of the hand of the king of Israel, who are rising up against me.'

8 Kendo Ahaz nokawo fedha kod dhahabu mane oyudi e hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye kod kar keno mar od ruoth mine oorogi kaka mich ne ruodh Asuria.

And Ahaz taketh the silver and the gold that is found in the house of Jehovah, and in the treasures of the house of the king, and sendeth to the king of Asshur — a bribe.

9 Ruodh Asuria noyie momonjo Damaski kendo okawe. Nodaro joma odak Damaski motero e twech Kir, Rezin to ne onego.

And hearken unto him doth the king of Asshur, and the king of Asshur goeth up unto Damascus, and seizeth it, and removeth [the people of] it to Kir, and Rezin he hath put to death.

10 Eka ruoth Ahaz nodhi Damaski mondo orom gi Tiglath-Pilesa ruodh Asuria. Noneno kendo mar misango man Damaski mi ooro ni Uria jadolo goro kaka oger kendono, kondiko maler gik moko duto mogerego.

And king Ahaz goeth to meet Tiglath-Pileser king of Asshur [at] Damascus, and seeth the altar that [is] in Damascus, and king Ahaz sendeth unto Urijah the priest the likeness of the altar, and its pattern, according to all its work,

11 Omiyo Uria jadolo nogero kendo mar misango kaluwore gi rieko duto mane ruoth Ahaz noorone koa Damaski mi notieko gere kapok ruoth Ahaz odwogo.

and Urijah the priest buildeth the altar according to all that king Ahaz hath sent from Damascus; so did Urijah the priest till the coming in of king Ahaz from Damascus.

12 Kane ruoth odwogo koa Damaski mi oneno kendo mar misangono, to ne odhi mochiwo misango e wiye.

And the king cometh in from Damascus, and the king seeth the altar, and the king draweth near on the altar, and offereth on it,

13 Ne ochiwo misango miwangʼo pep kod misango mar cham, kaachiel gi misango miolo piny kendo nokiro remo mar lalruok ewi kendo mar misango.

and perfumeth his burnt-offering, and his present, and poureth out his libation, and sprinkleth the blood of the peace-offerings that he hath, on the altar.

14 To kendo mar misango mar mula mane ni e nyim Jehova Nyasaye nogolo e kind kendone manyien gi hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye mokete yo nyandwat mar kendo manyien-no.

As to the altar of brass that [is] before Jehovah — he bringeth [it] near from the front of the house, from between the altar and the house of Jehovah, and putteth it on the side of the altar, northward.

15 Eka ruoth Ahaz nogolo chik ne Uria jadolo niya, “E kendo manyien maduongʼni ema nyaka itimie misango miwangʼo pep mar okinyi, misango mar cham mar odhiambo, misango miwangʼo pep mar ruoth, kod misango mar cham mar ruoth kaachiel gi misango pep mar ji duto modak e pinyno, kod misangogi mag cham kod misango miolo piny. Kir remo mag misengini duto miwangʼo pep kod misengini mamoko ewi kendo mar misangono. To abiro tiyo gi kendo mar misango molos gi mula mondo angʼe gima kare monego atim.”

And king Ahaz commandeth him — Urijah the priest — saying, 'On the great altar perfume the burnt-offering of the morning, and the present of the evening, and the burnt-offering of the king, and his present, and the burnt-offering of all the people of the land, and their present, and their libations; and all the blood of the burnt-offering, and all the blood of the sacrifice, on it thou dost sprinkle, and the altar of brass is to me to inquire [by].'

16 Kendo Uria jadolo notimo mana kaka ruoth Ahaz nochiko.

And Urijah the priest doth according to all that king Ahaz commanded.

17 Ruoth Ahaz nogolo gik moko michungogo besen kogolo kuom mago minyalo gol kuondegi. Bende nogolo gima ne iluongo ni Nam kuom mula molos ka rwath mane osire, mokete kar kende e kidi.

And king Ahaz cutteth off the borders of the bases, and turneth aside from off them the laver, and the sea he hath taken down from off the brazen oxen that [are] under it, and putteth it on a pavement of stones.

18 Bende nomuko agola mane otiyogo chiengʼ Sabato kod rangach ma oko mane odonjogo e hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye, nikech winjruok marach e kindgi gi ruodh Asuria.

And the covered place for the sabbath that they built in the house, and the entrance of the king without, he turned [from] the house of Jehovah, because of the king of Asshur.

19 To kuom gik mamoko duto mane Ahaz otimo e ndalo lochne, donge ondikgi e kitap weche ruodhi Juda?

And the rest of the matters of Ahaz that he did, are they not written on the book of the Chronicles of the kings of Judah?

20 Ahaz notho moyweyo gi kwerene kendo noyike kodgi e Dala Maduongʼ mar Daudi. Kendo Hezekia ma wuode nobedo ruoth kare.

And Ahaz lieth with his fathers, and is buried with his fathers, in the city of David, and reign doth Hezekiah his son in his stead.
