2 Chronicles 13
1 In the eighteenth year of King Jeroboam, Abijah became king over Judah.
Ie amy taom-paha-folo-valo’ ambi’ Iarovamey le niorotse nifehe Iehodà t’i Abiià.
2 He was king in Jerusalem for three years; his mother's name was Maacah, the daughter of Uriel of Gibeah. And there was war between Abijah and Jeroboam.
Telo taoñe ty nifehea’e e Ierosalaime ao; i Mikaià ana’ i Oriele nte-Gibà ty tahinan-drene’e. Nifañotakotake t’i Abiià naho Iarovame.
3 And Abijah went out to the fight with an army of men of war, four hundred thousand of his best men; and Jeroboam put his forces in line against him, eight hundred thousand of his best men of war.
Nifanontoñe hialy t’i Abiià reketse mpirimbon-dahindefoñe mahimbañe, ondaty jinoboñe efats-etse; naho nilahatse hifañatreatre ama’e t’Iarovame rekets’ ondaty jinoboñe valo-hetse, ondaty maozatse nahasibeke.
4 And Abijah took up his position on Mount Zemaraim, in the hill-country of Ephraim, and said, Give ear to me, O Jeroboam and all Israel:
Nijohañe an-kaboa’ i Tsemaraime t’i Abiià am-bohibohi’ i Efraime eo, nanao ty hoe: Janjiño iraho ry Iarovame naho Israele iabio;
5 Is it not clear to you that the Lord, the God of Israel, gave the rule over Israel to David and to his sons for ever, by an agreement made with salt?
tsy ho napota’ areo hao te natolo’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’ Israele amy Davide ho nainai’e donia ty fifeheañe Israele, ama’e naho amo ana-dahi’eo am-pañinan-tsira?
6 But Jeroboam, the son of Nebat, the servant of Solomon, the son of David, took up arms against his lord.
Fe nitroatse t’Iarovame ana’ i Nebate, mpitoro’ i Selomò ana’ i Davide vaho niola amy Talè’ey.
7 And certain foolish and good-for-nothing men were joined with him, and made themselves strong against Rehoboam, the son of Solomon, when he was young and untested and not able to keep them back.
Niropak’ ama’e ondaty tsy manjofakeo, ana’ i Beliale, naozatse te amy Rekoboame ana’ i Selomò, ie mbe nitora’e naho tso-po t’i Rekoboame vaho tsy nahafiatreatre.
8 And now it is your purpose to put yourselves against the authority which the Lord has put into the hands of the sons of David, and you are a very great number, and you have with you the gold oxen which Jeroboam made to be your gods.
Aa he mitsakore ty hoe nahareo t’ie hahafitroatse amy fifehea’ Iehovà am-pità’ o ana’ i Davideoy; ie valobohòke vasiañeñe vaho ama’ areo o bania volamena niranjie’ Iarovame ho ‘ndrahare’ areoo.
9 And after driving out the priests of the Lord, the sons of Aaron and the Levites, have you not made priests for yourselves as the people of other lands do? so that anyone who comes to make himself priest by offering an ox or seven sheep, may be a priest of those who are no gods.
Tsy fa rinoa’ areo hao o mpisoro’ Iehovào, o ana’ i Aharoneo, o nte-Levio vaho nañoriza’ areo mpisoroñe an-tsata’ ondaty an-tane ila’e añe? Aa ndra ia’ia miheo mb’eo hañori-vatañe reketse bania naho añondrilahy fito, le minjare mpisoron ‘drahare tsie.
10 But as for us, the Lord is our God, and we have not been turned away from him; we have priests who do the work of the Lord, even the sons of Aaron and the Levites in their places;
Fa naho zahay, Iehovà ro Andrianañahare’ay, le tsy naforintse’ay vaho amam-pisoroñe mitoroñe Iehovà, toe mitoloñ’ amo fitoloña’ iareoo o ana’ i Aharoneo naho o nte-Levio,
11 By whom burned offerings and perfumes are sent up in smoke before the Lord every morning and every evening; and they put out the holy bread on its table and the gold support for the lights with its lights burning every evening; for we keep the orders given to us by the Lord our God, but you have gone away from him.
ie misoroñe am’ Iehovà boa-maraindray naho hariva, soroñe naho emboke mañitse; naho mampidadañe i mofo miatrekey amy latabatse hiringiri’ey; naho mamelome o jiro am-pitàn-jiro volamenao boa-kariva, amy te tana’ay ty namantoha’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’ay; fe nifarie’ areo.
12 And now God is with us at our head, and his priests with their loud horns sounding against you. O children of Israel, do not make war on the Lord, the God of your fathers, for it will not go well for you.
Aa le oniño te mindre ama’ay ho mpiaolo anay t’i Andrianañahare naho mitan-trompetra fañatahatañe o mpisoro’eo, hivolan-kekoheko ama’ areo. O ry ana’ Israeleo, ko mialy am’ Iehovà Andrianañaharen-droae’ areo fa tsy hiraorao.
13 But Jeroboam had put some of his men to make a surprise attack on them from the back, so some were facing Judah and others were stationed secretly at their back.
Fe nampamandroñe’ Iarovame ty hiboak’ am-boho ao; aa le eo o aolo’ Iehodào vaho amboho ao o mpamandroñeo.
14 And Judah, turning their faces, saw that they were being attacked in front and at the back; and they gave a cry for help to the Lord, while the priests were sounding their horns.
Aa ie nitolik-amboho t’Iehodà, hehe te aolo naho amboho i hotakotakey; aa le nitoreo am’ Iehovà iereo vaho nitiofe’ o mpisoroñeo o trompetrao.
15 And the men of Judah gave a loud cry; and at their cry, God put fear into Jeroboam and all Israel before Abijah and Judah.
Nampipoña-pazak’ amy zao o nte-Iehodao; aa ie nipazapazake o nte-Iehodao, le nifetsake te linihin’ Añahare t’Iarovame naho Israele iaby añatrefa’ i Abiià naho Iehoda eo,
16 And the children of Israel went in flight before Judah, and God gave them up into their hands.
naho nitriban-day añatrefa’ Iehodà eo o ana’ Israeleo vaho tinolon’ Añahare am-pità’ iareo.
17 And Abijah and his people put them to death with great destruction: five hundred thousand of the best of Israel were put to the sword.
Zinama’ i Abiià naho ondati’eo am-pizamanañe ra’elahy, kanao lime-hetse am’ondaty jinoboñeo ty nitsingoron-ko vetrake.
18 So at that time the children of Israel were overcome, and the children of Judah got the better of them, because they put their faith in the Lord, the God of their fathers.
Aa le nampiambanèñe o ana’ Israeleo henane zay vaho nandreketse o ana’ Iehodao ami’ty niatoa’ iareo am’ Iehovà, Andrianañaharen-droae’ iareo.
19 And Abijah went after Jeroboam and took some of his towns, Beth-el with its small towns and Jeshanah with its small towns and Ephron with its small towns.
Nihoridañe’ i Abiià t’Iarovame, le nandrambesa’e rova: i Betele rekets’ o tanà’eo naho Iesanà rekets’ o tanà’eo vaho i Efrone rekets’ o tanà’eo.
20 And Jeroboam did not get back his power again in the life-time of Abijah; and the Lord sent death on him.
Tsy nahafitroatse ka t’Iarovame tañ’ andro’ i Abiià; le zinevo’ Iehovà re vaho nihomake.
21 But Abijah became great, and had fourteen wives, and became the father of twenty-two sons and sixteen daughters.
Fe nihamaozatse t’i Abiià, le nañenga valy folo efats’ amby vaho nisamak’ ana-dahy roapolo-ro’ amby naho anak’ampela folo-eneñ’amby.
22 And the rest of the acts of Abijah, and his ways and his sayings, are recorded in the account of the prophet Iddo.
Le o fitoloña’ i Abiìao naho o sata’eo naho o lañona’eo, tsy fa sinokitse amy fibejaña’ Idò mpitokiy hao?
