2 Chronicles 33
1 Manasseh was twelve years old when he became king, and he was ruling for fifty-five years in Jerusalem.
Manase yalya obwakabaka nga wa myaka kkumi n’ebiri, n’afugira emyaka amakumi ataano mu etaano mu Yerusaalemi.
2 He did evil in the eyes of the Lord, copying the disgusting ways of the nations whom the Lord had sent out of the land before the children of Israel.
N’akola ebitaali bya butuukirivu mu maaso ga Mukama, ng’agoberera ebikolwa eby’ekivve eby’amawanga Mukama ge yagoba mu maaso g’Abayisirayiri.
3 For he put up again the high places which had been pulled down by his father Hezekiah; and he made altars for the Baals, and pillars of wood, and was a worshipper and servant of all the stars of heaven;
N’addaabiriza ebifo ebigulumivu kitaawe Keezeekiya bye yali amenyeemenye, n’azimbira ne Baali ebyoto, n’akola ne Baasera, n’asinza era n’aweereza n’eggye lyonna ery’oku ggulu.
4 And he made altars in the house of the Lord, of which the Lord had said, In Jerusalem will my name be for ever.
N’azimba ebyoto mu yeekaalu ya Mukama, Mukama gye yayogerako nti, “Mu Yerusaalemi erinnya lyange mwe linaabeeranga emirembe gyonna.”
5 And he made altars for all the stars of heaven in the two outer squares of the house of the Lord.
N’azimba ebyoto eby’okusinzizangako eggye lyonna ery’oku ggulu, mu mpya zombi eza yeekaalu ya Mukama.
6 More than this, he made his children go through the fire in the valley of the son of Hinnom; and he made use of secret arts, and signs for reading the future, and unnatural powers, and gave positions to those who had control of spirits and to wonder-workers: he did much evil in the eyes of the Lord, moving him to wrath.
N’awaayo abaana be ng’ekiweebwayo, n’abookera mu kiwonvu ekya mutabani wa Kinomu, n’akola eby’obufumu, n’alagulira mu bire, n’akola eby’obulogo, n’agendanga n’eri abaliko emizimu ne ddayimooni. N’akola ebitaali bya butuukirivu bingi mu maaso ga Mukama, n’asunguwaza nnyo Mukama.
7 And he put the image he had made in the house of God, the house of which God had said to David and to Solomon his son, In this house, and in Jerusalem, the town which I have made mine out of all the tribes of Israel, will I put my name for ever:
N’addira ekifaananyi ekyole kye yakola, n’akiteeka mu yeekaalu ya Katonda, Katonda gye yayogerako eri Dawudi ne Sulemaani mutabani we nti, “Mu yeekaalu eno ne mu Yerusaalemi muno, bye nalonda mu bika byonna ebya Isirayiri, mwe munaabeeranga Erinnya lyange emirembe gyonna.
8 And never again will I let the feet of Israel be moved out of the land which I have given to their fathers; if only they will take care to do all my orders, even all the law and the orders and the rules given to them by Moses.
Sijjululenga nate kigere kya Isirayiri okuva mu nsi gye nawa bajjajjammwe, bwe baneekuumanga okukola bye mbalagidde, nga bagoberera amateeka gonna, n’ebiragiro, n’obulombolombo bye nnawa Musa.”
9 And Manasseh made Judah and the people of Jerusalem go out of the true way, so that they did more evil than those nations whom the Lord gave up to destruction before the children of Israel.
Naye Manase n’asendasenda Yuda n’abantu b’e Yerusaalemi okukola ebitaali bya butuukirivu okusinga amawanga Mukama ge yazikiririza mu maaso g’Abayisirayiri.
10 And the word of the Lord came to Manasseh and his people, but they gave no attention.
Mukama n’ayogera ne Manase n’abantu be, kyokka ne batassaayo mwoyo.
11 So the Lord sent against them the captains of the army of Assyria, who made Manasseh a prisoner and took him away in chains to Babylon.
Mukama kyeyava abasindikira abaduumizi b’eggye lya kabaka w’e Bwasuli, ne basiba Manase mu njegere ne mu masamba, ne bateeka eddobo mu nnyindo ye, ne bamutwala e Babulooni nga musibe.
12 And crying out to the Lord his God in his trouble, he made himself low before the God of his fathers,
Ng’ali eyo mu nnaku ye, ne yeegayirira Mukama Katonda we, ne yeetoowaza nnyo mu maaso ga Katonda wa bajjajjaabe.
13 And made prayer to him; and in answer to his prayer God let him come back to Jerusalem and to his kingdom. Then Manasseh was certain that the Lord was God.
N’amusaba, Mukama n’awulira okwegayirira kwe, n’amukomyawo e Yerusaalemi n’eri obwakabaka bwe. Awo Manase n’ategeera nga Mukama ye Katonda.
14 After this he made an outer wall for the town of David, on the west side of Gihon in the valley, as far as the way into the town by the fish doorway; and he put a very high wall round the Ophel; and he put captains of the army in all the walled towns of Judah.
Oluvannyuma lw’ebyo n’addaabiriza bbugwe ow’ebweru ow’ekibuga kya Dawudi, ku luuyi olw’ebugwanjuba olwa Gikoni, mu kiwonvu, okutuuka awayingirirwa mu Mulyango ogw’Ebyennyanja, n’okwetooloola olusozi lwa Oferi, n’okumuzimba n’amuzimba ng’asingako bbugwe eyaliwo obuwanvu. N’ateeka n’abaduumizi b’eggye mu bibuga byonna ebiriko bbugwe mu Yuda.
15 He took away the strange gods and the image out of the house of the Lord, and all the altars he had put up on the hill of the Lord's house and in Jerusalem, and put them out of the town.
N’aggyamu bakatonda abamawanga n’ekifaananyi ekyole mu yeekaalu ya Mukama, n’ebyoto byonna bye yazimba ku kasozi ka yeekaalu ne mu Yerusaalemi, n’abisuula ebweru w’ekibuga.
16 And he put the altar of the Lord in order, offering peace-offerings and praise-offerings on it, and said that all Judah were to be servants of the Lord, the God of Israel.
N’addaabiriza ekyoto kya Mukama, n’aweerayo ssaddaaka ez’ebiweebwayo olw’emirembe n’ez’okwebaza, n’alagira Yuda okuweerezanga Mukama Katonda wa Isirayiri.
17 However, the people still made offerings in the high places, but only to the Lord their God.
Wabula abantu bo, ne beeyongera okuweerangayo ssaddaaka ku bifo ebigulumivu, nga baziwaayo eri Mukama Katonda waabwe.
18 Now the rest of the acts of Manasseh, and his prayer to his God, and the words which the seers said to him in the name of the Lord, the God of Israel, are recorded among the acts of the kings of Israel.
Ebyafaayo ebirala ebyabaawo mu mirembe gya Manase, ng’omwo mwe muli okusaba kwe eri Mukama n’ebigambo abalabi bye baamutegeezanga mu linnya lya Mukama Katonda wa Isirayiri, byawandiikibwa mu bitabo eby’omu mirembe gya bassekabaka ba Isirayiri.
19 And the prayer which he made to God, and how God gave him an answer, and all his sin and his wrongdoing, and the places where he made high places and put up pillars of wood and images, before he put away his pride, are recorded in the history of the seers.
Okusaba kwe, n’okusaasira kwa Katonda gy’ali, n’ebibi bye, n’obutali bwesigwa bwe, n’ebifo ebigulumivu bye yazimba, ne Baasera, n’ebifaananyi ebyole bye yassaawo nga taneetoowaza, byonna byawandiikibwa mu bitabo eby’omu mirembe gy’abalabi.
20 So Manasseh went to rest with his fathers, and they put his body to rest in his house, and Amon his son became king in his place.
Manase ne yeebakira wamu ne bajjajjaabe, n’aziikibwa mu lubiri lwe, Amoni mutabani we n’amusikira.
21 Amon was twenty-two years old when he became king; and he was ruling for two years in Jerusalem.
Amoni yali wa myaka amakumi abiri mu ebiri we yaliira obwakabaka.
22 He did evil in the eyes of the Lord, as Manasseh his father had done; and Amon made offerings to all the images which his father Manasseh had made, and was their servant.
N’akola ebitaali bya butuukirivu mu maaso ga Mukama, nga Manase kitaawe bwe yakola.
23 He did not make himself low before the Lord, as his father Manasseh had done, but went on sinning more and more.
Naye obutafaanana nga kitaawe Manase, Amoni n’ayongera ekibi ku kibi, n’ateetoowaza mu maaso ga Mukama.
24 And his servants made a secret design against him, and put him to death in his house.
Abakungu ba Amoni ne bamusalira olukwe ne bamuttira mu lubiri lwe.
25 But the people of the land put to death all those who had taken part in the design against King Amon, and made his son Josiah king in his place.
Naye Abantu ab’omu nsi ne batta abo bonna abasala olukwe okutta kabaka Amoni; ne bafuula Yosiya mutabani we okuba kabaka mu kifo kye.
