< 2 Chronicles 33 >
1 Manasseh was twelve years old when he began to reign, and he reigned fifty-five years in Jerusalem.
Manase gbara afọ iri na abụọ mgbe ọ malitere ịbụ eze. Ọ chịrị iri afọ ise na ise na Jerusalem.
2 He did that which was evil in the LORD’s sight, after the abominations of the nations whom the LORD cast out before the children of Israel.
O mere ihe dị njọ nʼanya Onyenwe anyị, site nʼịgbaso ihe arụ niile nke ndị mba ọzọ bi nʼala ahụ na mbụ mere, bụ ndị Onyenwe anyị chụpụrụ nʼihu ndị Izrel.
3 For he built again the high places which Hezekiah his father had broken down; and he raised up altars for the Baals, made Asheroth, and worshiped all the army of the sky, and served them.
O wugharịrị ebe dị elu niile nke nna ya Hezekaya kwadara, o wukwara ebe ịchụ aja dị iche iche nke Baal, pịakwa ogidi Ashera dị iche iche. Ọ kpọrọ isiala nye usuu ihe niile nke dị na mbara eluigwe feekwa ha ofufe.
4 He built altars in the LORD’s house, of which the LORD said, “My name shall be in Jerusalem forever.”
O wuru ebe ịchụ aja dị iche iche, nʼime ụlọnsọ Onyenwe anyị, nke Onyenwe anyị, kwuru okwu banyere ya, sị, “Aha m ga-adịgide na Jerusalem ruo mgbe ebighị ebi.”
5 He built altars for all the army of the sky in the two courts of the LORD’s house.
O wuru ebe ịchụ aja nye usuu ihe niile dị na mbara eluigwe nʼogige abụọ dị nʼụlọnsọ Onyenwe anyị.
6 He also made his children to pass through the fire in the valley of the son of Hinnom. He practiced sorcery, divination, and witchcraft, and dealt with those who had familiar spirits and with wizards. He did much evil in the LORD’s sight, to provoke him to anger.
O jikwa ụmụ ya chụọ aja nʼime ọkụ na Ndagwurugwu nke Ben Hinom. Ọ gbara aja, taa amụsụ, chọọ ọsịsa nʼaka ndị mgbaasị, jụta ase nʼaka ndị na-ajụ mmụọ ọjọọ ase, ya na ndị dibịa afa mekọkwara ihe. O mere ihe dị njọ nʼebe ọ dị ukwuu nʼanya Onyenwe anyị si otu a kpasuo iwe ya.
7 He set the engraved image of the idol, which he had made, in God’s house, of which God said to David and to Solomon his son, “In this house, and in Jerusalem, which I have chosen out of all the tribes of Israel, I will put my name forever.
O were oyiyi apịrị apị nke o mere debe nʼime ụlọnsọ Chineke, nke Chineke gwara Devid na nwa ya Solomọn okwu sị, “Nʼụlọnsọ a na nʼime Jerusalem, nke mụ onwe m họpụtara site nʼebo niile nke Izrel, ka m ga-akpọkwasị Aha m ruo mgbe ebighị ebi.
8 I will not any more remove the foot of Israel from off the land which I have appointed for your fathers, if only they will observe to do all that I have commanded them, even all the law, the statutes, and the ordinances given by Moses.”
Ma agaghị emekwa ka ụkwụ ndị Izrel hapụ ala ahụ nke m kenyere nna nna unu, naanị ma ọ bụrụ na ha elezie anya debe ihe niile m nyere ha nʼiwu banyere iwu niile, ụkpụrụ niile na ntụziaka niile m nyere site nʼaka Mosis.”
9 Manasseh seduced Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem, so that they did more evil than did the nations whom the LORD destroyed before the children of Israel.
Ma Manase duhiere Juda na ndị Jerusalem, mee ka ha mee ihe dị njọ karịa nke ndị mba niile ndị Onyenwe anyị lara nʼiyi site nʼihu ndị Izrel.
10 The LORD spoke to Manasseh and to his people, but they did not listen.
Onyenwe anyị gwara Manase na ndị ya okwu, ma ha egeghị ntị.
11 Therefore the LORD brought on them the captains of the army of the king of Assyria, who took Manasseh in chains, bound him with fetters, and carried him to Babylon.
Nʼihi ya, Onyenwe anyị mere ka ndị ọchịagha nke eze ndị Asịrịa bịa buso ha agha, bụ ndị jidere Manase, gbanye ya nko igwe nʼimi, were ụdọ bronz kee ya agbụ, kpọrọ ya laa Babilọn.
12 When he was in distress, he begged the LORD his God, and humbled himself greatly before the God of his fathers.
Nʼoge ahụ ka anya doro Manase. O wedara onwe ya ala nke ukwuu, rịọọ amara site nʼaka Onyenwe anyị Chineke nna nna ya.
13 He prayed to him; and he was entreated by him, and heard his supplication, and brought him again to Jerusalem into his kingdom. Then Manasseh knew that the LORD was God.
Onyenwe anyị nụrụ arịrịọ ya mee ya ka ọ lọtakwa nʼalaeze ya na Jerusalem. Mgbe ahụ, Manase matara na Onyenwe anyị bụ Chineke nʼezie.
14 Now after this, he built an outer wall to David’s city on the west side of Gihon, in the valley, even to the entrance at the fish gate. He encircled Ophel with it, and raised it up to a very great height; and he put valiant captains in all the fortified cities of Judah.
Ọ bụ nʼoge a ka o wughachiri mgbidi nke abụọ gburugburu obodo Devid, na mgbidi dị nʼọdịda anyanwụ iyi Gaihọn na ndagwurugwu Kidrọn. Site nʼebe ahụ, o wuru ya ruo nʼọnụ ụzọ ama Azụ, na gburugburu ugwu Ofel ebe o wuliri ya elu. O dokwara ndịisi agha ya nʼobodo niile e wusiri ike dị na Juda.
15 He took away the foreign gods and the idol out of the LORD’s house, and all the altars that he had built in the mountain of the LORD’s house and in Jerusalem, and cast them out of the city.
O wezugara chi ndị mba ọzọ niile, wepụkwa oyiyi ahụ o tinyere nʼụlọnsọ ukwu Onyenwe anyị, kụtuokwa ụlọ arụsị o wuru nʼugwu ụlọnsọ, na ndị nke o wuru na Jerusalem. O sitere nʼobodo bufuo ha.
16 He built up the LORD’s altar, and offered sacrifices of peace offerings and of thanksgiving on it, and commanded Judah to serve the LORD, the God of Israel.
Emesịa, o wugharịrị ebe ịchụ aja Onyenwe anyị dị nʼụlọnsọ ukwu Chineke, chụọ aja udo na aja ekele nʼelu ya. O nyekwara ndị Juda niile iwu sị ha fee Onyenwe anyị Chineke nke Izrel ofufe.
17 Nevertheless the people still sacrificed in the high places, but only to the LORD their God.
Ma ụfọdụ ndị Juda nọgidekwara na-achụ aja nʼugwu, maọbụ naanị Onyenwe anyị Chineke ha ka ha na-achụrụ aja ndị a.
18 Now the rest of the acts of Manasseh, and his prayer to his God, and the words of the seers who spoke to him in the name of the LORD, the God of Israel, behold, they are written among the acts of the kings of Israel.
Ma banyere ihe ndị ọzọ niile mere nʼoge ọchịchị Manase na ekpere nke o kpeere Chineke ya, na okwu niile ndị ọhụ gwara ya nʼaha Onyenwe anyị, bụ Chineke nke Izrel, ka e dere nʼakwụkwọ akụkọ ihe e mere nʼoge ndị eze Izrel niile.
19 His prayer also, and how God listened to his request, and all his sin and his trespass, and the places in which he built high places and set up the Asherah poles and the engraved images before he humbled himself: behold, they are written in the history of Hozai.
Ekpere ya, na ọsịsa Chineke zara ya, na mmehie ya niile, na-ekwesighị ntụkwasị obi ya, na ebe niile o wuru ụlọ arụsị nʼelu ugwu, na ebe ọ manyere ogidi arụsị Ashera, na arụsị ndị ọzọ, tupu o weda onwe ya ala, ka e dere nʼakwụkwọ akụkọ ndị amụma.
20 So Manasseh slept with his fathers, and they buried him in his own house; and Amon his son reigned in his place.
Manase sooro ndị nna nna ya ha dina nʼọnwụ, e lie ya nʼụlọeze ya. Amọn, ọkpara ya, nọchiri ya.
21 Amon was twenty-two years old when he began to reign; and he reigned two years in Jerusalem.
Amọn gbara iri afọ abụọ na abụọ mgbe ọ malitere ịbụ eze. Ọ chịrị afọ abụọ na Jerusalem.
22 He did that which was evil in the LORD’s sight, as did Manasseh his father; and Amon sacrificed to all the engraved images which Manasseh his father had made, and served them.
O mere ihe dị njọ nʼanya Onyenwe anyị dịka nna ya Manase mere. Amọn kpọrọ isiala, chụọkwa aja nye arụsị niile, nke Manase mere.
23 He did not humble himself before the LORD, as Manasseh his father had humbled himself; but this same Amon trespassed more and more.
Ma o wedaghị onwe ya ala nʼihu Onyenwe anyị dịka Manase nna ya mere. Kama Amọn gara nʼihu mee ka ikpe ọmụma ya mụbaa.
24 His servants conspired against him, and put him to death in his own house.
Ndị na-ejere Amọn ozi gbara izu megide ya, ha gburu ya nʼime ụlọeze ya.
25 But the people of the land killed all those who had conspired against King Amon; and the people of the land made Josiah his son king in his place.
Mgbe ahụ, ndị ala ahụ gburu ndị niile ahụ gbara izu megide eze Amọn. Ha mere Josaya nwa ya nwoke eze nʼọnọdụ ya.
