2 Kings 16
1 In the seventeenth year of Pekah son of Remaliah, Ahaz son of Jotham became king of Judah.
E higa mar apar gabiriyo mar loch Peka wuod Remalia, Ahaz wuod Jotham ruodh Juda nobedo ruoth.
2 Ahaz was twenty years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem sixteen years. And unlike David his father, he did not do what was right in the eyes of the LORD his God.
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.
3 Instead, he walked in the ways of the kings of Israel and even sacrificed his son in the fire, according to the abominations of the nations that the LORD had driven out before the Israelites.
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.
4 And he sacrificed and burned incense on the high places, on the hills, and under every green tree.
Notimo misengini kendo owangʼo ubani mangʼwe ngʼar e kuonde motingʼore malo mag lemo, ewi gode matindo kendo e bwo yiende motimo otiep.
5 Then Rezin king of Aram and Pekah son of Remaliah king of Israel came up to wage war against Jerusalem. They besieged Ahaz but could not overcome him.
Eka Rezin ruodh Aram kod Peka wuod Remalia ruodh Israel nowuok dhi gore gi Jerusalem mi omako Ahaz, to ne ok ginyal loye.
6 At that time Rezin king of Aram recovered Elath for Aram, drove out the men of Judah, and sent the Edomites into Elath, where they live to this day.
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.
7 So Ahaz sent messengers to Tiglath-pileser king of Assyria, saying, “I am your servant and your son. Come up and save me from the hands of the kings of Aram and Israel, who are rising up against me.”
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.”
8 Ahaz also took the silver and gold found in the house of the LORD and in the treasuries of the king’s palace, and he sent it as a gift to the king of Assyria.
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.
9 So the king of Assyria responded to him, marched up to Damascus, and captured it. He took its people to Kir as captives and put Rezin to death.
Ruodh Asuria noyie momonjo Damaski kendo okawe. Nodaro joma odak Damaski motero e twech Kir, Rezin to ne onego.
10 Then King Ahaz went to Damascus to meet Tiglath-pileser king of Assyria. On seeing the altar in Damascus, King Ahaz sent Uriah the priest a model of the altar and complete plans for its construction.
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.
11 And Uriah the priest built the altar according to all the instructions King Ahaz had sent from Damascus, and he completed it by the time King Ahaz had returned.
Omiyo Uria jadolo nogero kendo mar misango kaluwore gi rieko duto mane ruoth Ahaz noorone koa Damaski mi notieko gere kapok ruoth Ahaz odwogo.
12 When the king came back from Damascus and saw the altar, he approached it and presented offerings on it.
Kane ruoth odwogo koa Damaski mi oneno kendo mar misangono, to ne odhi mochiwo misango e wiye.
13 He offered his burnt offering and his grain offering, poured out his drink offering, and sprinkled the blood of his peace offerings on the altar.
Ne ochiwo misango miwangʼo pep kod misango mar cham, kaachiel gi misango miolo piny kendo nokiro remo mar lalruok ewi kendo mar misango.
14 He also took the bronze altar that stood before the LORD from the front of the temple (between the new altar and the house of the LORD) and he put it on the north side of the new altar.
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.
15 Then King Ahaz commanded Uriah the priest, “Offer on the great altar the morning burnt offering, the evening grain offering, and the king’s burnt offering and grain offering, as well as the burnt offerings, grain offerings, and drink offerings of all the people of the land. Sprinkle on the altar all the blood of the burnt offerings and sacrifices. But I will use the bronze altar to seek guidance.”
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.”
16 So Uriah the priest did just as King Ahaz had commanded.
Kendo Uria jadolo notimo mana kaka ruoth Ahaz nochiko.
17 King Ahaz also cut off the frames of the movable stands and removed the bronze basin from each of them. He took down the Sea from the bronze oxen that were under it and put it on a stone base.
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.
18 And on account of the king of Assyria, he removed the Sabbath canopy they had built in the temple and closed the royal entryway outside the house of the LORD.
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.
19 As for the rest of the acts of Ahaz, along with his accomplishments, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah?
To kuom gik mamoko duto mane Ahaz otimo e ndalo lochne, donge ondikgi e kitap weche ruodhi Juda?
20 And Ahaz rested with his fathers and was buried with them in the City of David, and his son Hezekiah reigned in his place.
Ahaz notho moyweyo gi kwerene kendo noyike kodgi e Dala Maduongʼ mar Daudi. Kendo Hezekia ma wuode nobedo ruoth kare.
