< 2 Kings 17 >

1 In the twelfth year of the reign of Ahaz over Judah, Hoshea son of Elah became king of Israel, and he reigned in Samaria nine years.
An-taom-paha folo-ro’ ambi’ i Ahkaze mpanjaka’ Iehodày ty niorota’ i Hosea ana’ i Elà nifehe Israele e Somerone ao sive taoñe.
2 And he did evil in the sight of the LORD, but not like the kings of Israel who preceded him.
Le nanoe’e haratiañe am-pivazohoa’ Iehovà, f’ie tsy nanahake o mpanjaka’ Israele taolo’eo.
3 Shalmaneser king of Assyria attacked him, and Hoshea became his vassal and paid him tribute.
Nionjomb’ ama’e mb’eo t’i Salmanesere mpanjaka’ i Asore; le ninjare mpitoro’e t’i Hosea vaho nandroroñe ama’e.
4 But the king of Assyria discovered that Hoshea had conspired to send envoys to King So of Egypt, and that he had not paid tribute to the king of Assyria as in previous years. Therefore the king of Assyria arrested Hoshea and put him in prison.
Fe nahaoniñe kilily amy Hosea ty mpanjaka’ i Asore, amy te nañitrifa’e ìrake t’i So, mpanjaka’ i Mitsraime vaho tsy ninday rorotse amy mpanjaka’ i Asorey manahake ty lili’e boa-taoñe; aa le narindri’e an-drohy am-porozò ao.
5 Then the king of Assyria invaded the whole land, marched up to Samaria, and besieged it for three years.
Nionjomb’eo nanitsike i tane iabiy ty mpanjaka’ i Asore le nigodañe mb’e Somerone vaho niarikatok’ aze telo taoñe.
6 In the ninth year of Hoshea, the king of Assyria captured Samaria and carried away the Israelites to Assyria, where he settled them in Halah, in Gozan by the Habor River, and in the cities of the Medes.
Amy taom-paha sive’ i Hoseay, le naname i Somerone ty mpanjaka’ i Asore vaho nendese’e mb’e Asore mb’ eo t’Israele le napo’e e Ka­lake vaho e Kabore marine ty rano Gozane an-drova’ o nte-Madaio añe.
7 All this happened because the people of Israel had sinned against the LORD their God, who had brought them out of the land of Egypt from under the hand of Pharaoh king of Egypt. They had worshiped other gods
Toly amy zao ty hakeo’ o ana’ Israeleo amy Iehovà Andrianañahare’ iareo, i nañakats’ iareo an-tane’ Mitsraime boak’ am-pità’ i Parò mpanjaka’ i Mi­tsraimey, ie nañeveñe amo ‘ndrahare ila’eo
8 and walked in the customs of the nations that the LORD had driven out before the Israelites, as well as in the practices introduced by the kings of Israel.
naho nañavelo am-pañè’ o kilakila’ ondaty rinoa’ Iehovà añatrefa’ o ana’ Israeleoo vaho ty amo sata’ o mpanjaka’ Israeleo.
9 The Israelites secretly did things against the LORD their God that were not right. From watchtower to fortified city, they built high places in all their cities.
Nanoe’ o ana’ Israeleo am’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’ iareo añ’etak’ ao o tsy havokarañeo, nandranjy toets’ abo an-drova’ iareo iaby, boak’ am-pitalakesañ’ abo pak’ an-drova mifahetse.
10 They set up for themselves sacred pillars and Asherah poles on every high hill and under every green tree.
Naho najado’ iareo amy ze atao haboañe naho ambane’ ze hatae mandrevake iaby o Aserào naho o hazomangao;
11 They burned incense on all the high places like the nations that the LORD had driven out before them. They did wicked things, provoking the LORD to anger.
le nañembok’ ao manahake o kilakila’ ondaty sinoi’ Iehovà aolo’ iareoo, vaho nandranjy raha tsereheñe hampiviñetse Iehovà;
12 They served idols, although the LORD had told them, “You shall not do this thing.”
ie nitoroñe o hazomanga nafè’ Iehovà am’ iereoo ty hoe: Ko manao zao.
13 Yet through all His prophets and seers, the LORD warned Israel and Judah, saying, “Turn from your wicked ways and keep My commandments and statutes, according to the entire Law that I commanded your fathers and delivered to you through My servants the prophets.”
Mbore nanjehazehà’ Iehovà t’Israele naho Iehodà, añamo mpitokio naho o mpioniñe iabio, ami’ty hoe: Iambohò o sata rati’ areoo, naho ambeno o fepèkoo naho o fañèko amy Hake liniliko an-droae’ areo vaho nampihitrifeko ama’ areo am-pità’ o mpitoky mpitorokooy.
14 But they would not listen, and they stiffened their necks like their fathers, who did not believe the LORD their God.
Fe tsy hinao’ iereo, te mone nampijirin­gàm-pititia, manahake o fititian-droae’ iareoo, ie mboe lia’e tsy niato amy Iehovà Andrianañahare’ iareo.
15 They rejected His statutes and the covenant He had made with their fathers, as well as the decrees He had given them. They pursued worthless idols and themselves became worthless, going after the surrounding nations that the LORD had commanded them not to imitate.
Natorifi’ iereo o fañè’eo naho i nifañinà’e aman-droae’ iareoy naho o taroñe nizehazehà’e am’ iereoo; nañori­ke hakoahañe iereo naho ninjare kòake, le nañorike o kilakila’ ndaty nañohoke iareoo; o nafanto’ Iehovà am’ iereoo te tsy itsikombeañe.
16 They abandoned all the commandments of the LORD their God and made for themselves two cast idols of calves and an Asherah pole. They bowed down to all the host of heaven and served Baal.
Nado’ iareo ze hene lili’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’ iareo, naho nampitranahe’ iareo Aserà, naho bania roe, naho nampitroatse hazomanga naho nitalaho amy valobohòn-dindiñey, vaho nitoroñe i Baale.
17 They sacrificed their sons and daughters in the fire and practiced divination and soothsaying. They devoted themselves to doing evil in the sight of the LORD, provoking Him to anger.
Nampirangae’ iereo añ’ afo o ana-dahy naho anak’ ampela’ iareoo, naho nanikily vaho namoreke, le nandeta-batañe hanao haloloañe am-pi­vazohoa’ Iehovà hiviñera’e.
18 So the LORD was very angry with Israel, and He removed them from His presence. Only the tribe of Judah remained,
Aa le niviñera’ Iehovà t’Israele vaho nafaha’e am-piva­zohoa’e; leo raike tsy napo’e naho tsy i fifokoa’ Iehodày avao.
19 and even Judah did not keep the commandments of the LORD their God, but lived according to the customs Israel had introduced.
Toe tsy nambena’ Iehoda ka o lili’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’ iareoo te mone nañavelo amo fañè’ nitoloña’ Israeleo.
20 So the LORD rejected all the descendants of Israel. He afflicted them and delivered them into the hands of plunderers, until He had banished them from His presence.
Fonga naforintse’ Iehovà ty tarira’ Israele, le nampisotrie’e naho natolo’e am-pitam-pamaoke vaho nahifi’e boak’ am-pivazohoa’e.
21 When the LORD had torn Israel away from the house of David, they made Jeroboam son of Nebat king, and Jeroboam led Israel away from following the LORD and caused them to commit a great sin.
Rinia’e boak’ añ’ anjomba’ i Davide ao iereo; le nanoe’ iereo mpanjaka t’Iarovame ana’ i Nebate, le nasinta’ Iarovame tsy hañorike Iehovà t’Israele, ie nampanaña’e hakeo jabajaba.
22 The Israelites persisted in all the sins that Jeroboam had committed and did not turn away from them.
Fonga nañavelo amo tahi’ Iarovameo; tsy nisitaha’ iareo;
23 Finally, the LORD removed Israel from His presence, as He had declared through all His servants the prophets. So Israel was exiled from their homeland into Assyria, where they are to this day.
ampara’ te nasinta’ Iehovà am-pivazohoa’e t’Israele, amy tsinara’e am-pità’ ze hene mpitoky mpitoro’ey. Aa le nasese an-drohy boak’ an-tane’e ao t’Israele, mb’e Asore añe am-para’ te henane.
24 Then the king of Assyria brought people from Babylon, Cuthah, Avva, Hamath, and Sepharvaim and settled them in the towns of Samaria to replace the Israelites. They took possession of Samaria and lived in its towns.
Ninday ondaty boak’e Bavele naho Kote, naho Avà, naho Kamate, naho Sefarvaine añe ty mpanjaka’ i Asore, vaho navotra’e amo rova’ i Someroneo handimbe Israele; le nifanaña’ iareo t’i Somerone vaho nimoneñe amo rova’eo.
25 Now when the settlers first lived there, they did not worship the LORD, so He sent lions among them, which killed some of them.
Ie namototse nimoneñe ao, naho mboe tsy nañeveñe am’ Iehovà, le nañiraha’ Iehovà liona nanjevoñe ty ila’e.
26 So they spoke to the king of Assyria, saying, “The peoples that you have removed and placed in the cities of Samaria do not know the requirements of the God of the land. Because of this, He has sent lions among them, which are indeed killing them off.”
Aa le nanao ty hoe amy mpanjaka’ i Asorey iereo: Tsy fohi’ ze kilakila ‘ndaty navì’o naho navotra’o amo rova’ i Someroneo ty lilin’ Andrianañahare’ i taney; toly ndra nañiraha’e liona, le inao, ie tsy mahafohiñe o lilin’ Añahare’ i taneio ty namonoa’ o lionao.
27 Then the king of Assyria commanded: “Send back one of the priests you carried off from Samaria, and have him go back to live there and teach the requirements of the God of the land.”
Le hoe ty nandilia’ i mpanjaka’ i Asorey: Andeso mpisoroñe raike hirik’ amo nasese’ areo boak’aoo; le ampom-bao mb’eo himoneñe ao hañòke iareo ty lilin’ Andrianañahare’ i taney.
28 Thus one of the priests they had carried away came and lived in Bethel, and he began to teach them how they should worship the LORD.
Aa le nimb’ eo ty raik’ amo mpisoroñe nendeseñe boake Someroneo le nimoneñe e Betele ao, vaho nanare’e ty hañeveñe am’ Iehovà.
29 Nevertheless, the people of each nation continued to make their own gods in the cities where they had settled, and they set them up in the shrines that the people of Samaria had made on the high places.
Fe fonga namboatse ty ‘ndrahare’e i fifeheañe rey, le napo’e amo toets’ abo rinanji’ o nte-Someroneoo, songa fifeheañe an-drova nimoneña’e ao.
30 The men of Babylon made Succoth-benoth, the men of Cuth made Nergal, the men of Hamath made Ashima,
Namboare’ o nte-Baveleo ty Sokote-benote, naho namboare’ o nte-Koseo t’i Nergale, naho namboare’ o nte-Kamateo ty Asimae;
31 the Avvites made Nibhaz and Tartak, and the Sepharvites burned their children in the fire to Adrammelech and Anammelech the gods of the Sepharvaim.
naho namboare’ o nte-Avìo ty Nibkaze naho i Tartake vaho sinodo’ o nte-Sefarvaineo amy Adrameleke naho i Anameleke, ‘ndrahare’ o nte-Sefarvaimeo, añ’afo ao o ana’ iareoo.
32 So the new residents worshiped the LORD, but they also appointed for themselves priests of all sorts to serve in the shrines of the high places.
Mbore nañeveñe amy Iehovà, mbore noriza’ iareo boak’ am’ iareo ao ty mpisoron-toets’ abo hitoloñe amo kibohon-toets’ aboo ho a iareo.
33 They worshiped the LORD, but they also served their own gods according to the customs of the nations from which they had been carried away.
Nañondrañe am’ Iehovà iereo mbore nitoroñe o ‘ndrahare’ iareoo, ami’ty sata’ o kilakila’ndaty nañakarañe iareo boak’ am-pandrohizañe añeo.
34 To this day they are still practicing their former customs. None of them worship the LORD or observe the statutes, ordinances, laws, and commandments that the LORD gave the descendants of Jacob, whom He named Israel.
Mbe mañori­ke ty sata’ iareo taolo pak’ androany, tsy añeveña’ iareo t’Iehovà, tsy ambena’ iareo o fañè’eo naho o fepè’eo naho i Tsara’ey vaho o fepètse linili’ Iehovà o ana’ Iakobe nikanjie’e ty hoe Israeleoo;
35 For the LORD had made a covenant with the Israelites and commanded them, “Do not worship other gods or bow down to them; do not serve them or sacrifice to them.
ie nanoa’ Iehovà fañina, vaho nafanto’e am’iereo ty hoe; Ko hembañe amo ‘ndrahare ila’eo, ko ibokobokoañe ndra itoroñañe, ndra isoroñañe;
36 Instead, worship the LORD, who brought you out of the land of Egypt with great power and an outstretched arm. You are to bow down to Him and offer sacrifices to Him.
fa Iehovà nañakatse anahareo an-tane Mitsraime an-kaozaran-dra’e­lahy naho am-pitàñe natorakitsi’e, Ie ty añeveña’ areo, le Ie ty italahoa’ areo vaho Ie ty hisoroña’ areo;
37 And you must always be careful to observe the statutes, ordinances, laws, and commandments He wrote for you. Do not worship other gods.
le o fañèo naho o fepètseo naho i Hake vaho o lily sinoki’e ama’ areoo ro hambena’ areo hanoeñe nainai’e; fa tsy añeveñañe o ‘ndrahare ila’eo;
38 Do not forget the covenant I have made with you. Do not worship other gods,
le ko haliño i fañina nanoeko ama’ areoy; vaho ko hembañe amo ‘ndrahare ila’eo;
39 but worship the LORD your God, and He will deliver you from the hands of all your enemies.”
Iehovà Andria­nañahare’ areo avao ty añeveña’ areo; le Ie ty hamotsotse anahareo am-pità’ o fonga rafelahio.
40 But they would not listen, and they persisted in their former customs.
F’ie tsy nañaoñe, te mone nanao ty nahazatse.
41 So these nations worshiped the LORD but also served their idols, and to this day their children and grandchildren continue to do as their fathers did.
Aa le nañeveñe am’ Iehovà o fifeheañeo mbore nitoroñe o hazomanga’ iareoo; orihe’ o ana’eo naho o anan’ ana’eo ty satan-droae’ iareo pak’androany.
