Chronicles II 16
1 And in the thirty-eighth year of the reign of Asa, the king of Israel went up against Juda, and built Rama, so as not to allow egress or ingress to Asa king of Juda.
Tamin’ ny taona fahenina amby telo-polo nanjakan’ i Asa dia niakatra Basa, mpanjakan’ ny Isiraely, hamely ny Joda, ka nanamboatra an’ i Rama izy mba tsy hisy hahazo hivoaka na hiditra ho an’ i Asa, mpanjakan’ ny Joda.
2 And Asa took silver and gold out of the treasures of the house of the Lord, and of the king's house, and sent [them] to the son of Ader king of Syria, which dwelt in Damascus, saying,
Ary Asa namoaka volafotsy sy volamena avy tamin’ ny rakitry ny tranon’ i Jehovah sy ny tranon’ ny mpanjaka, dia nampitondra azy tany amin’ i Beni-hadada, mpanjakan’ i Syria, izay nitoetra tany Damaskosy, ka nanao hoe:
3 Make a covenant between me and thee, and between my father and thy father: behold, I have sent thee gold and silver: come, and turn away from me Baasa king of Israel, and let him depart from me.
Misy fanekena amiko sy aminao, dia ilay tamin’ ny raiko sy ny rainao; koa, indro, mampanatitra volafotsy sy volamena ho anao aho, ka andeha, tsoahy ny fanekenao amin’ i Basa, mpanjakan’ ny Isiraely, mba hialany amiko.
4 And the son of Ader hearkened to king Asa, and sent the captains of his host against the cities of Israel; and smote Aeon, and Dan, and Abelmain, and all the country round Nephthali.
Ary Beni-hadada nanaiky ny tenin’ i Asa mpanjaka ka naniraka ireo komandin’ ny miaramilany hamely ny tanànan’ ny Isiraely; dia nandrava an’ Iona sy Dana sy Abela-maima ary ny trano fitehirizana rehetra izay teny amin’ ny tanànan’ ny Naftaly izy.
5 And it came to pass when Baasa heard [it] he left off building Rama, and put a stop to his work:
Ary nony ren’ i Basa izany, dia nitsahatra tsy nanamboatra an’ i Rama intsony izy, fa natsahany ny asany.
6 then king Asa took all Juda, and took the stones of Rama, and its timber, [with] which Baasa [had] built; and he built with them Gabae and Maspha.
Ary Asa mpanjaka namory ny Joda rehetra; ary dia nesorin’ ny olona ny vato sy ny hazo tao Rama, izay naorin’ i Basa, ka nentiny nanamboatra an’ i Geba sy Mizpa.
7 And at that time came Anani the prophet to Asa king of Juda, and said to him, Because thou didst trust on the king of Syria, and didst not trust on the Lord thy God, therefore the army of Syria is escaped out of thy hand.
Ary tamin’ izany andro izany dia nankeo amin’ i Asa, mpanjakan’ ny Joda, Hanany mpahita ka nanao taminy hoe: Noho ny niankinanao tamin’ ny mpanjakan’ i Syria fa tsy niankina tamin’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrao ianao, dia afa-nandositra ny tananao ny miaramilan’ ny mpanjakan’ i Syria.
8 Were not the Ethiopians and Libyans a great force, in courage, in horsemen, in great numbers? and did not He deliver them into thy hands, because thou trustedst in the Lord?
Tsy maro be va ny Etiopiana sy ny Lobita, ary tsy maro be koa va ny kalesiny sy ny mpitaingin-tsoavaliny? Nefa noho ny niankinanao tamin’ i Jehovah, dia natolony teo an-tananao ireo.
9 For the eyes of the Lord look upon all the earth, to strengthen every heart that is perfect toward him. In this thou hast done foolishly; henceforth there shall be war with thee.
Fa ny mason’ i Jehovah mijery eny tontolo eny eran’ ny tany rehetra, mba hisehoany aman-kery hamonjy izay manana fo mahitsy aminy. Adala ianao tamin’ izany, ka dia hisy ady hahazo anao hatramin’ izao.
10 And Asa was angry with the prophet, and put him in prison, for he was angry at this: and Asa vexed some of the people at that time.
Dia tezitra tamin’ ilay mpahita Asa ka nanao azy tao an-trano-maizina; fa nisafoaka aminy indrindra izy noho izany. Ary ny olona sasany koa dia nampahorin’ i Asa tamin’ izay.
11 And, behold, the acts of Asa, the first and the last, [are] written in the book of the kings of Juda and Israel.
Ary, indro, ny tantaran’ i Asa, na ny voalohany na ny farany, dia efa voasoratra ao amin’ ny bokin’ ny mpanjakan’ ny Joda sy ny Isiraely.
12 And Asa was diseased [in] his feet in the thirty-ninth year of his reign, until he was very ill: but in his disease he sought not to the Lord, but to the physicians.
Tamin’ ny taona fahasivy amby telo-polo nanjakan’ i Asa dia narary tamin’ ny tongony izy, ka nihamafy indrindra ny aretiny; nefa na dia narary aza izy, dia tsy nitady an’ i Jehovah, fa ny mpanao fanafody ihany.
13 And Asa slept with his fathers, and died in the fortieth year of his reign.
Ary Asa lasa nodi-mandry any amin’ ny razany; maty izy tamin’ ny taona fahiraika amby efa-polo nanjakany.
14 And they buried him in the sepulchre which he had dug for himself in the city of David, and they laid him on a bed, and filled [it] with spices and [all] kinds of perfumes of the apothecaries; and they made for him a very great funeral.
Dia nalevina tao amin’ ny fasany ihany izy, izay nolavahany tao an-Tanànan’ i Davida, ka nampandrina teo amin’ ny fandriana efa nofenoina zava-manitra samy hafa voaharoharo araka ny fanaon’ ny mpangaroharo zava-manitra, ary nandoroany zavatra betsaka ho fisaonana azy.
