2 Chronicles 28
1 Ahaz was twenty years old when he began to reign, and he reigned sixteen years in Jerusalem. And he did not do that which was right in the eyes of Jehovah like David his father,
Ahazu aarĩ wa mĩaka mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ rĩrĩa aatuĩkire mũthamaki, nake agĩthamaka arĩ Jerusalemu mĩaka ikũmi na ĩtandatũ. Nake ndaigana gwĩka maũndũ marĩa maagĩrĩire maitho-inĩ ma Jehova, ta ũrĩa ithe Daudi eekĩte.
2 but he walked in the ways of the kings of Israel, and also made molten images for the Baalim.
Aathiiaga na mĩthiĩre ya athamaki a Isiraeli, o na ningĩ agĩthondeka mĩhianano ya Baali ya gũtwekio ya kũhooyagwo.
3 Moreover he burnt incense in the valley of the son of Hinnom, and burnt his sons in the fire, according to the abominations of the nations whom Jehovah cast out before the sons of Israel.
Nake agĩcinĩra magongona kũu Gĩtuamba-inĩ kĩa Beni-Hinomu, na akĩruta ariũ ake marĩ magongona ma gũcinwo na mwaki, arũmĩrĩire mĩthiĩre ĩrĩa ĩrĩ thaahu ya ndũrĩrĩ iria Jehova aaingatĩte ciehere mbere ya andũ a Isiraeli.
4 And he sacrificed and burnt incense in the high places, and on the hills, and under every green tree.
Nĩaarutire magongona na agĩcinĩra ũbumba kũndũ kũrĩa gũtũũgĩru, na tũcũmbĩrĩ-inĩ twa irĩma, na rungu rwa mĩtĩ ĩrĩa mĩruru.
5 Therefore Jehovah his God delivered him into the hand of the king of Syria. And they smote him, and carried away of his a great multitude of captives, and brought them to Damascus. And he was also delivered into the hand of the king of Israel, who smote him with a great slaughter.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Jehova Ngai wake akĩmũneana kũrĩ mũthamaki wa Suriata. Nao Asuriata makĩmũhoota na magĩtaha andũ ake aingĩ matuĩke mĩgwate, na makĩmatwara Dameski. O na ningĩ nĩaneanirwo moko-inĩ ma mũthamaki wa Isiraeli ũrĩa wamũringire iringa inene ma.
6 For Pekah the son of Remaliah killed in Judah a hundred and twenty thousand in one day, all of them valiant men, because they had forsaken Jehovah, the God of their fathers.
Na rĩrĩ, mũthenya ũmwe-rĩ, Peka mũrũ wa Remalia nĩooragire thigari 120,000 kũu Juda, tondũ andũ a Juda nĩmatirikĩte Jehova, Ngai wa maithe mao.
7 And Zichri, a mighty man of Ephraim, killed Maaseiah the king's son, and Azrikam the ruler of the house, and Elkanah who was next to the king.
Zikiri ũrĩa Mũefiraimu njamba ya ita akĩũraga Maaseia mũrũ wa mũthamaki, na Azirikamu ũrĩa warĩ mũmenyereri wa nyũmba ya ũthamaki, na Elikana ũrĩa warĩ wa keerĩ kuuma harĩ mũthamaki.
8 And the sons of Israel carried away captive of their brothers two hundred thousand, women, sons, and daughters, and also took away much spoil from them, and brought the spoil to Samaria.
Andũ a Isiraeli magĩtaha kuuma kũrĩ ariũ a ithe wao atumia 200,000 na ariũ na aarĩ ao. Ningĩ no maatahire indo nyingĩ iria maacookire nacio Samaria.
9 But a prophet of Jehovah was there, whose name was Oded. And he went out to meet the army that came to Samaria, and said to them, Behold, because Jehovah, the God of your fathers, was angry with Judah, he has delivered them into your hand. And ye have slain them in a rage which has reached up to heaven.
No rĩrĩ, mũnabii wa Jehova wetagwo Odedi aarĩ kuo, nake akiumagara agatũnge mbũtũ cia ita igĩcooka Samaria. Nake agĩciĩra atĩrĩ, “Tondũ Jehova, o we Ngai wa maithe manyu, nĩarakarĩire andũ a Juda-rĩ, nĩamaneanire moko-inĩ manyu. No inyuĩ nĩmũmooragĩte na marakara, namo nĩ makinyĩte o igũrũ.
10 And now ye propose to keep under the sons of Judah and Jerusalem for bondmen and bondwomen to you. Are there not even with you trespasses of your own against Jehovah your God?
Na rĩrĩ, mũciirĩire gũtua arũme na andũ-a-nja a Juda na Jerusalemu ngombo cianyu. No githĩ o na inyuĩ mũtihĩtĩtie na mũkehĩria Jehova Ngai wanyu?
11 Now hear me therefore, and send back the captives that ye have taken captive of your brothers. For the fierce wrath of Jehovah is upon you.
Rĩu ta gĩthikĩrĩriei! Cookiai andũ a bũrũri wanyu arĩa mũnyiitĩte mĩgwate, nĩgũkorwo marakara mahiũ ma Jehova marĩ igũrũ rĩanyu.”
12 Then certain of the heads of the sons of Ephraim, Azariah the son of Johanan, Berechiah the son of Meshillemoth, and Jehizkiah the son of Shallum, and Amasa the son of Hadlai, stood up against those who came from the war,
Hĩndĩ ĩyo atongoria amwe kũu Efiraimu, nao nĩ Azaria mũrũ wa Jehohanani, na Berekia mũrũ wa Meshilemothu, na Jehizikia mũrũ wa Shalumu, na Amasa mũrũ wa Hadilai, makĩrũgama nĩguo makaanie andũ acio moimaga mbaara-inĩ.
13 and said to them, Ye shall not bring in the captives here. For ye propose that which will bring upon us a trespass against Jehovah, to add to our sins and to our trespass. For our trespass is great, and there is fierce wrath against Israel.
Makĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Mũtikarehe mĩgwate ĩyo gũkũ, tũtikoonwo tũhĩtĩtie mbere ya Jehova, naguo ũndũ ũcio wongerere mehia na mahĩtia maitũ. Nĩgũkorwo mahĩtia maitũ o na rĩu nĩ maingĩ, namo marakara make mahiũ marĩ igũrũ rĩa Isiraeli.”
14 So the armed men left the captives and the spoil before the rulers and all the assembly.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio thigari ikĩrekereria mĩgwate na indo iria ciatahĩte, o hau mbere ya anene na ya kĩũngano kĩu gĩothe.
15 And the men who have been mentioned by name rose up, and took the captives, and with the spoil clothed all who were naked among them, and dressed them, and shod them, and gave them to eat and to drink, and anointed them, and carried all the feeble of them upon donkeys, and brought them to Jericho, the city of palm trees, to their brothers. Then they returned to Samaria.
Nao andũ arĩa maarĩ agwete na marĩĩtwa makĩoya mĩgwate ĩyo, na arĩa maarĩ njaga makĩmahumba nguo kuuma indo-inĩ iria ciatahĩtwo. Makĩmahe nguo na iraatũ, na irio na kĩndũ gĩa kũnyua, na maguta ma kũhonania. Nao arĩa othe mataarĩ na hinya makĩhaicio ndigiri igũrũ. Nĩ ũndũ ũcio makĩmacookia kũrĩ andũ a bũrũri wao o kũu Jeriko, Itũũra Inene rĩa Mĩkĩndũ, nao magĩcooka Samaria.
16 At that time king Ahaz sent to the kings of Assyria to help him.
Na rĩrĩ, ihinda rĩu Mũthamaki Ahazu agĩtũmanĩra mũthamaki wa Ashuri amũteithie.
17 For again the Edomites had come and smitten Judah, and carried away captives.
Andũ a Edomu nĩmookĩte rĩngĩ na magatharĩkĩra Juda, na magakuua mĩgwate,
18 The Philistines also had invaded the cities of the lowland, and of the South of Judah, and had taken Beth-shemesh, and Aijalon, and Gederoth, and Soco with the towns of it, and Timnah with the towns of it, also Gimzo and the towns of it. And they dwelt there.
na o hĩndĩ ĩyo nao Afilisti nĩmahũrĩte matũũra marĩa maarĩ mũhuro-inĩ wa irĩma, na Negevu kũu Juda. Nĩmatahire na magĩikara matũũra ma Bethi-Shemeshu, na Aijaloni, na Gederothu, o ũndũ ũmwe na Soko, na Timuna, na Gimuzo, na tũtũũra tũnini tũrĩa twamathiũrũrũkĩirie.
19 For Jehovah brought Judah low because of Ahaz king of Israel, for he had dealt wantonly in Judah, and trespassed severely against Jehovah.
Nake Jehova nĩagithirie Juda gĩtĩĩo tondũ wa Ahazu mũthamaki wa Isiraeli, nĩgũkorwo nĩoongereire waganu kũu Juda, na nĩagĩte kwĩhokeka mũno harĩ Jehova.
20 And Tilgath-pilneser king of Assyria came to him, and distressed him, but did not strengthen him.
Nake Tigilathu-Pileseru mũthamaki wa Ashuri agĩũka kũrĩ we, no handũ ha kũmũteithia nĩkũmũthĩĩnia aamũthĩĩnirie.
21 For Ahaz took away a portion out of the house of Jehovah, and out of the house of the king and of the rulers, and gave it to the king of Assyria, but it did not help him.
Ahazu akĩoya indo imwe kuuma hekarũ-inĩ ya Jehova, na kuuma nyũmba-inĩ ya ũthamaki, na kuuma kũrĩ ariũ a mũthamaki, na agĩcihe mũthamaki wa Ashuri, no ũndũ ũcio ndwamũteithirie.
22 And in the time of his distress he trespassed yet more against Jehovah, this same king Ahaz.
Mahinda macio make ma thĩĩna-rĩ, Mũthamaki Ahazu no gũkĩrĩrĩria aakĩrĩrĩirie kwaga wĩhokeku harĩ Jehova.
23 For he sacrificed to the gods of Damascus, which smote him. And he said, Because the gods of the kings of Syria helped them, therefore I will sacrifice to them, that they may help me. But they were the ruin of him, and of all Israel.
Akĩrutĩra ngai cia Dameski iria ciamũhootete magongona, nĩgũkorwo eeciiragia atĩrĩ, “Kuona atĩ ngai cia athamaki a Suriata nĩcimateithĩtie-rĩ, nĩngũcirutĩra igongona nĩguo cindeithie o na niĩ.” No icio nĩcio ciamũniinire na ikĩniina Isiraeli rĩothe.
24 And Ahaz gathered together the vessels of the house of God, and cut in pieces the vessels of the house of God, and shut up the doors of the house of Jehovah. And he made altars for him in every corner of Jerusalem.
Ahazu agĩcookereria indo cia hekarũ ya Ngai na agĩcithaamia. Agĩcooka akĩhinga mĩrango ya hekarũ ya Jehova, na agĩaka igongona ikĩiyũra o koine-inĩ ciothe cia njĩra cia itũũra rĩa Jerusalemu.
25 And in every city of Judah he made high places to burn incense to other gods, and provoked to anger Jehovah, the God of his fathers.
Ningĩ o itũũra-inĩ rĩothe rĩa Juda agĩaka kũndũ kũrĩa gũtũũgĩru gwa kũrutĩra ngai ingĩ magongona ma njino, nake agĩthirĩkia Jehova, Ngai wa maithe make, agĩtũma arakare.
26 Now the rest of his acts, and all his ways, first and last, behold, they are written in the book of the kings of Judah and Israel.
Namo maũndũ marĩa mangĩ makoniĩ wathani wake na mĩthiĩre yake yothe-rĩ, kuuma kĩambĩrĩria nginya mũthia-rĩ, maandĩkĩtwo ibuku-inĩ rĩa athamaki a Juda na Isiraeli.
27 And Ahaz slept with his fathers, and they buried him in the city, even in Jerusalem. For they did not bring him into the sepulchers of the kings of Israel. And Hezekiah his son reigned in his stead.
Nake Ahazu akĩhurũka hamwe na maithe make na agĩthikwo itũũra-inĩ rĩa Jerusalemu, no ndaigirwo mbĩrĩra-inĩ cia athamaki a Isiraeli. Nake mũriũ Hezekia agĩtuĩka mũthamaki ithenya rĩake.
