2 Chronicles 25
1 Amaziah was twenty-five years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem twenty-nine years. His mother’s name was Jehoaddan; she was from Jerusalem.
Amazia ne ja-higni piero ariyo gabich kane odoko ruoth kendo norito Jerusalem kuom higni piero ariyo gochiko. Min mare ne nyinge Jehoadin nyar Jerusalem.
2 And he did what was right in the eyes of the LORD, but not wholeheartedly.
Notimo gima kare e nyim Jehova Nyasaye to ok gi chunye duto.
3 As soon as the kingdom was firmly in his grasp, Amaziah executed the servants who had murdered his father the king.
Bangʼ ka pinyruodhe nosegurore maber, nonego jotelo mane onego wuon mare mane ruoth.
4 Yet he did not put their sons to death, but acted according to what is written in the Law, in the Book of Moses, where the LORD commanded: “Fathers must not be put to death for their children, and children must not be put to death for their fathers; each is to die for his own sin.”
Kata kamano ne ok onego yawuot jogo nikech noluwo chik manie 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.”
5 Then Amaziah gathered the people of Judah and assigned them according to their families to commanders of thousands and of hundreds. And he numbered those twenty years of age or older throughout Judah and Benjamin and found 300,000 chosen men able to serve in the army, bearing the spear and shield.
Eka Amazia nochoko jo-Juda kod jo-Benjamin kaachiel mopogogi tich kaluwore gi anywolagi kendo noyiero jotend migepe mag jolweny alufu achiel kod migepe mag mia achiel. Bangʼe nokwano jogo mahikgi piero ariyo ka dhi nyime kendo nonwangʼo ni ne gin ji alufu mia adek mane nyalo dhi e lweny kendo mane nyalo kedo gi tongʼ kod okumba.
6 He also hired 100,000 mighty warriors from Israel for a hundred talents of silver.
Bende nondiko jo-Israel mathuondi alufu mia achiel kochulo fedha ma pekne romo kilo alufu adek gi mia angʼwen.
7 But a man of God came to him and said, “O king, do not let the army of Israel go with you, for the LORD is not with Israel—not with any of the Ephraimites.
To ngʼat Nyasaye moro nobiro ire mowachone niya, “Ruoth momi luor, kik iyie mondo jolweny ma jo-Israel dhi kodi nimar Jehova Nyasaye ok ni kod jo-Israel ma jo-Efraim-gi.
8 Even if you go and fight bravely in battle, God will make you stumble before the enemy, for God has power to help and power to overthrow.”
To kata kidhi ma ikedo gi chir e lweny, to Nyasaye nomi wasiki loyi, nikech Nyasayeno nigi teko mar konyi kata miyo wasiki loyi.”
9 Amaziah asked the man of God, “What should I do about the hundred talents I have given to the army of Israel?” And the man of God replied, “The LORD is able to give you much more than this.”
Amazia nopenjo ngʼat Nyasaye niya, “To wabiro timo angʼo kuom fedha mapekgi romo kilo alufu adek gi mia angʼwen mane wachulo kuom jolweny mag jo-Israel?” Ngʼat Nyasaye nodwoko niya, “Jehova Nyasaye nyalo miyi mangʼeny moloyo mano.”
10 So Amaziah dismissed the troops who had come to him from Ephraim and sent them home. And they were furious with Judah and returned home in great anger.
Eka Amazia noriembo jolweny mane oa Efraim mine gidok e miechgi ka igi owangʼ kendo gikecho malich gi Juda.
11 Amaziah, however, summoned his strength and led his troops to the Valley of Salt, where he struck down 10,000 men of Seir,
To Amazia notimo chir kendo nowuok motelone jolweny mage kagidhi e Holo mar Chumbi kama nonege jo-Seir alufu apar.
12 and the army of Judah also captured 10,000 men alive. They took them to the top of a cliff and threw them down so that all were dashed to pieces.
Jolweny mag Juda nomako ji alufu apar kangima mi negiterogi ewi lwanda moro kendo negidirogi piny ma githo kendo gitur matindo tindo.
13 Meanwhile the troops that Amaziah had dismissed from battle raided the cities of Judah, from Samaria to Beth-horon. They struck down 3,000 people and carried off a great deal of plunder.
To e sechego jolweny mane Amazia oriembo ni ok inyal dhi kode e lweny nomonjo miech Juda chakre Samaria nyaka Beth Horon. Neginego ji alufu adek kendo negipeyo gik moko mangʼeny.
14 When Amaziah returned from the slaughter of the Edomites, he brought back the gods of the Seirites, set them up as his own gods, bowed before them, and burned sacrifices to them.
Kane Amazia odwogo koa nego jo-Edom nokelo nyiseche mag jo-Seir moketogi ka nyisechege kokulore nigi kendo notimonigi misango.
15 Therefore the anger of the LORD burned against Amaziah, and He sent him a prophet, who said, “Why have you sought this people’s gods, which could not deliver them from your hand?”
Jehova Nyasaye nokecho ahinya gi Amazia kendo noorone janabi manowachone niya, “Angʼo momiyo igeno kuom nyiseche mag jogi mane ok nyal reso jogi giwegi e lweti?”
16 While he was still speaking, the king asked, “Have we made you the counselor to the king? Stop! Why be struck down?” So the prophet stopped, but he said, “I know that God has determined to destroy you, because you have done this and have not heeded my advice.”
Kane pod janabino wuoyo, ruoth nowachone niya, “Bende waseketi jangʼad rieko ne ruoth? Lingʼ thi! Koso idwaro tho?” Omiyo janabi nolingʼ, to bangʼe nowacho niya, “Angʼeyo ni Nyasaye osechano ni mondo otieki nikech gima isetimo kendo ok isewinjo puonjna.”
17 Then Amaziah king of Judah took counsel and sent word to the king of Israel Jehoash son of Jehoahaz, the son of Jehu. “Come, let us meet face to face,” he said.
Bangʼe Amazia ruodh Juda nopenjo jongʼadne rieko mi nooro joote ir Jehoash wuod Jehoahaz ma wuod Jehu ruoth Israel kowacho niya, “Bi warom wangʼ gi wangʼ.”
18 But Jehoash king of Israel replied to Amaziah king of Judah: “A thistle in Lebanon sent a message to a cedar in Lebanon, saying, ‘Give your daughter to my son in marriage.’ Then a wild beast in Lebanon came along and trampled the thistle.
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.
19 You have said, ‘Look, I have defeated Edom,’ and your heart has become proud and boastful. Now stay at home. Why should you stir up trouble so that you fall—you and Judah with you?”
In iwuorori ni iseloyo jo-Edom kendo koro iwuoyo marach kisungori. To ber mondo ibed mana e dala. Angʼo momiyo imanyo lweny mabiro tieki kaachiel gi jo-Juda duto?”
20 But Amaziah would not listen, for this had come from God in order to deliver them into the hand of Jehoash, because they had sought the gods of Edom.
Kata kamano, Amazia ne ok odewo, nimar ne en dwaro Nyasaye mondo ochiwe e lwet Jehoash nikech negiluwo nyiseche mag Edom.
21 So Jehoash king of Israel advanced, and he and Amaziah king of Judah faced each other at Beth-shemesh in Judah.
Omiyo Jehoash ruodh Israel nomonje. Jehoash kod Amazia ruodh Juda ne joromo e lweny e dala mar Beth Shemesh man Juda.
22 And Judah was routed before Israel, and every man fled to his own home.
Jo-Israel noloyo jo-Juda kendo ngʼato ka ngʼato noringo kochomo dalane.
23 There at Beth-shemesh, Jehoash king of Israel captured Amaziah king of Judah, the son of Joash, the son of Jehoahaz. Then Jehoash brought him to Jerusalem and broke down the wall of Jerusalem from the Ephraim Gate to the Corner Gate—a section of four hundred cubits.
Jehoash ruodh Israel nomako Amazia wuod Joash ma wuod Ahazia, ruodh Juda e Beth Shemesh. Bangʼe Jehoash nokele 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.
24 He took all the gold and silver and all the articles found in the house of God with Obed-edom and in the treasuries of the royal palace, as well as some hostages. Then he returned to Samaria.
Nokawo dhahabu gi fedha duto kod gik moko duto mane oyudo e hekalu mar Nyasaye mane Obed-Edom orito kaachiel gi keno mar ruoth kod ji moko mano mako e lweny, bangʼe nodok e piny Samaria.
25 Amaziah son of Joash king of Judah lived for fifteen years after the death of Jehoash son of Jehoahaz king of Israel.
Amazia wuod Joash ruodh Juda nodak higni apar gabich bangʼ tho Jehoash wuod Jehoahaz ruodh Israel.
26 As for the rest of the acts of Amaziah, from beginning to end, are they not written in the Book of the Kings of Judah and Israel?
To weche mamoko mag loch Amazia kar chakruokgi nyaka gikogi donge ondikgi e kitap ruodhi mag Juda kod Israel?
27 From the time that Amaziah turned from following the LORD, a conspiracy was formed against him in Jerusalem, and he fled to Lachish. But men were sent after him to Lachish, and they killed him there.
Chakre ndalo mane Amazia oweyo luwo Jehova Nyasaye, negichikone obadho e Jerusalem mi oringo odhi Lakish, to negioro ji bangʼe Lakish ma onege kuno.
28 They carried him back on horses and buried him with his fathers in the City of Judah.
Noduog ringre kotingʼ gi faras kendo noyike but kwerene e Dala Maduongʼ mar Juda.
