2 Ruodhi 3

1 Joram wuod Ahab nobedo ruodh Israel e piny Samaria e higa mar apar gaboro mar kinde loch Jehoshafat ruodh Juda kendo nobedo e loch higni apar gariyo.

Nowe Iehoram the sonne of Ahab beganne to reigne ouer Israel in Samaria, the eighteenth yeere of Iehoshaphat King of Iudah, and reigned twelue yeeres.

2 Ne otimo richo e wangʼ Jehova Nyasaye, to ok kaka wuon kod min notimo. Noketho kido milamo mar Baal mane wuon oseloso.

And he wrought euill in the sight of the Lord, but not like his father nor like his mother: for he tooke away the image of Baal that his father had made.

3 Kata kamano ne osiko e richo mar Jeroboam wuod Nebat, mane omiyogo jo-Israel odonjo e richo; kendo ne ok oweyogi kata matin.

Neuerthelesse, he cleaued vnto the sinnes of Ieroboam, the sonne of Nebat, which made Israel to sinne, and departed not therefrom.

4 Mesha ruodh Moab ne japith rombe, kendo ne ojagolo osuru ne ruodh Israel maromo nyirombe alufu mia achiel kod yie imbe maromo alufu mia achiel.

Then Mesha King of Moab had store of sheepe, and rendred vnto the King of Israel an hundreth thousande lambes, and an hundreth thousande rammes with the wooll.

5 To bangʼ tho Ahab, ruodh Moab nongʼanyo ne ruodh Israel.

But when Ahab was dead, the king of Moab rebelled against the King of Israel.

6 Omiyo Ruoth Joram noa Samaria mochoko jo-Israel duto.

Therefore King Iehoram went out of Samaria the same season, and nombred all Israel,

7 Bende nooro wach ni Jehoshafat ruodh Juda kowachone niya, “Ruodh Moab osengʼanyona. Bende diyie dhi koda mondo waked kodgi?” Nodwoko niya, “Abiro dhi kodi. An mana kaka in, joga gin kaka jogi, kendo faresena gin kaka faresegi.”

And went, and sent to Iehoshaphat King of Iudah, saying, The King of Moab hath rebelled against me: wilt thou goe with me to battell against Moab? And he answered, I will goe vp: for I am, as thou art, my people, as thy people, and mine horses as thine horses.

8 Nopenjo niya, “Wadhi monje koa kon mane?” Nodwoke niya, “Ka wangʼado e piny ongoro mar Edom.”

Then said he, What way shall we goe vp? And he answered, The way of the wildernesse of Edom.

9 Eka ruodh Israel nowuok ka gin kod ruodh Juda kendo gi ruodh Ekron e piny Edom. Kane giselworore kuom ndalo abiriyo, jolweny ne onge gi pi mar modho kata mag jamni mane oyudo gin-go.

So went the King of Israel and the king of Iudah, and the King of Edom, and when they had compassed the way seuen dayes, they had no water for the hoste, nor for the cattell that followed them.

10 Ruodh Israel nopenjore niya, “Angʼo matimoreni! Jehova Nyasaye osekelowa ka ruodhi adekgi duto mondo ochiw-wa e lwet Moab?”

Therefore the King of Israel sayde, Alas, that the Lord hath called these three Kings, to giue them into the hand of Moab.

11 Jehoshafat nopenjo niya, “Onge janabi mar Jehova Nyasaye ka mondo, mi wapenje wach mar Jehova Nyasaye?” Jatelo mar ruodh Israel nodwoke niya, “Elisha wuod Shafat mane tiyone Elija nika.”

But Iehoshaphat saide, Is there not here a Prophet of the Lord, that we may inquire of the Lord by him? And one of the King of Israels seruants answered, and said, Here is Elisha the sonne of Shaphat, which powred water on the handes of Eliiah.

12 Jehoshafat nowacho niya, “Jalno en ngʼat man-gi wach Jehova Nyasaye.” Omiyo ruodh Israel, Jehoshafat kod ruodh Edom nolor modhi ire.

Then Iehoshaphat saide, The worde of the Lord is with him. Therefore the King of Israel, and Iehoshaphat, and the King of Edom went downe to him.

13 Elisha nopenjo ruodh Israel niya, “Angʼo madikelwa kaachiel?” Dhiuru ir jonabi mag wuonu kod minu. Ruodh Israel nodwoke niya, “Ooyo, Jehova Nyasaye ema osekelowa wan ruodhi adek kanyakla mondo ochiw-wa e lwet jo-Moab.”

And Elisha sayde vnto the King of Israel, What haue I to doe with thee? get thee to the prophets of thy father and to the prophets of thy mother. And the King of Israel saide vnto him, Nay: for the Lord hath called these three Kings, to giue them into the hande of Moab.

14 Elisha nowacho niya, “Akwongʼora gi nying Jehova Nyasaye Maratego ma atiyone, ni ka dine bed ni ok ageno Jehoshafat ruodh Juda, to dine ok ayudo thuolo mar wuoyo kodi kata dewi

Then Elisha said, As the Lord of hostes liueth, in whose sight I stande, if it were not, that I regarde the presence of Iehoshaphat the King of Iudah, I woulde not haue looked towarde thee, nor seene thee.

15 To koro kelnauru ngʼat magoyo nyatiti.” Kane oyudo ogoyo nyatiti teko mar Jehova Nyasaye ne obiro ir Elisha,

But nowe bring me a minstrel. And when the minstrel played, the hand of the Lord came vpon him.

16 mowacho niya, “Jehova Nyasaye wacho kama: Kunyuru buche mathoth e holoni.

And he saide, Thus saith the Lord, Make this valley full of ditches.

17 Nimar ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye wacho: Ok unuwinj yamo kata neno koth, to kata kamano holoni biro pongʼ gi pi kendo un, jambu, gi chiayo mamoko nomodh ka.

For thus saith the Lord, Ye shall neither see winde nor see raine, yet the valley shalbe filled with water, that ye may drinke, both ye and your cattel, and your beastes.

18 Ma en gima yot ahinya e wangʼ Jehova Nyasaye, nimar jo-Moab obiro chiwo e lwetu.

But this is a small thing in the sight of the Lord: for he will giue Moab into your hande.

19 Ubiro loyo mier madongo mochiel motegno kod mier mamoko duto. Ubiro tongʼo yiende mabeyo duto, unudin sokni kendo unupongʼ puothe mabeyo gi kite.”

And ye shall smite euery strong towne and euery chiefe citie, and shall fell euery faire tree, and shall stoppe all the fountaines of water, and marre euery good fielde with stones.

20 Kinyne gokinyi, kar seche mitimoe misango, pi nobiro koa yo Edom kendo gwengʼno notimo pi lilo.

And in the morning whe the meat offring was offred, beholde, there came water by the way of Edom: and the countrey was filled with water.

21 Jo-Moab duto nowinjo ni ruodhi ka osebiro mondo oked kodgi, omiyo ngʼato ka ngʼato, obed ngʼat matin kata ngʼat maduongʼ mane nyalo tingʼo gige lweny noluongi mi oketi e tongʼ.

And when al the Moabites heard that the Kings were come vp to fight against them, they gathered all that was able to put on harnesse, and vpwarde, and stood in their border.

22 E seche mane gichiewo gokinyi mangʼich, chiengʼ ne rieny kendo ler mar chiengʼ ne nenore ewi pi. Jo-Moab mane ni loka machielo, ne pigno nenorenegi makwar ka remo.

And they rose earely in the morning, when the sunne arose vpon the water, and the Moabites saw the water ouer against them, as red as blood.

23 Negiwacho niya, “Macha remo! Nyaka bed ni ruodhigo osekedo kendgi giwegi monegore. Koro wadhi wayak Moab!”

And they saide, This is blood the Kings are surely slaine, and one hath smitten another: now therefore, Moab, to the spoyle.

24 To ka jo-Moab nobiro e kambi mar Israel; jo-Israel nowuok mokedo kodgi nyaka negiringo. Omiyo jo-Israel nomonjo pinyno monego jo-Moab.

And when they came to the host of Israel, the Israelites arose vp, and smote the Moabites, so that they fled before them, but they inuaded them, and smote Moab.

25 Negiketho miech Moab kendo ngʼato ka ngʼato ne odiro kidi e puothe duto mabeyo nyaka kite nopongʼogi. Negidino sokni duto kendo negitingʼo yiende duto mabeyo. Kir Hareseth kendo ema ne odongʼ gi kitene kochungʼ, to ji man-gi orujre noluore mi omonje bende.

And they destroyed the cities: and on all the good field euery man cast his stone, and filled them and they stopt all the fountaines of water, and felled all the good trees: onely in Kirharaseth left they the stones thereof: howebeit they went about it with slings, and smote it.

26 Kane ruodh Moab oneno ka lweny loye, ne odhi gi ji mia abiriyo man kod ligangla, kotemo muomogo ruodh Edom mondo otony; to ne otamogi.

And when the King of Moab saw that the battel was too sore for him, he tooke with him seuen hudreth men that drew the sword, to break through vnto the King of Edom: but they could not.

27 Kuom mano nokawo wuode makayo, mane onego okaw ruoth kare mi otimogo misango e kor ohinga mar dala maduongʼ. Mirima maduongʼ nomako jo-Israel; kendo mano nomiyo giweyo kedo kodgi mi gidok e pinygi.

Then he tooke his eldest sonne, that should haue reigned in his stead, and offered him for a burnt offring vpon the wall: so that Israel was sore grieued, and they departed from him, and returned to their countrey.
