< Chronicles II 25 >

1 Amasias began to reign when he was twenty and five years old, and he reigned twenty-nine years in Jerusalem; and his mother's name [was] Joadaen of Jerusalem.
Roapolo taoñe lim’ amby t’i Amatsià te niorotse nifehe, le nifehe roapolo taoñe sive amby e Ierosalaime ao. Iehoadane nte-Ierosalaime ty tahinan-drene’e.
2 And he did that which was right in the sight of the Lord, but not with a perfect heart.
Nanao soa am-pivazohoa’ Iehovà eo re, fe tsy an-kaampon’ arofo.
3 And it came to pass, when the kingdom was established in his hand, that he slew his servants who had slain the king his father.
Aa, ie vata’e nifejañe i fifehea’ey, le vinono’e i mpitoroñe nañoho-doza aman-drae’e rey,
4 But he slew not their sons, according to the covenant of the law of the Lord, as it is written, [and] as the Lord commanded, saying, The fathers shall not die for the children, and the sons shall not die for the fathers, but they shall die each for his own sin.
fe tsy vinono’e o ana’eo ie nanao ze sinokitse amy Hake, amy boke’ i Mosey, amy lili’ Iehovà ty hoe: Tsy havetrake ty amo ana’eo o roae’eo vaho tsy havetrake ty aman-droae’e o ana’eo, fa songa hivetrake ty amo hakeo’eo.
5 And Amasias assembled the house of Juda, and appointed them according to the houses of their families for captains of thousands and captains of hundreds in all Juda and Jerusalem: and he numbered them from twenty years old and upwards, and found them three hundred thousand able to go out to war, holding spear and shield.
Mbore natonto’ i Ama­tsià t’Iehoda naho nanoe’e mpifelek’ arivo naho mpifele-jato ty aman’ anjomban-droae’e, le nitsitsife’e t’Iehodà naho i Beniamine namolily o roapolo taoñe mañamboneo, nitendreke te telo hetse t’indaty nilefe, nahafionjoñe mb’añ’aly naho nahatan-defoñe vaho fikalañe.
6 Also he hired of Israel a hundred thousand mighty [men for] a hundred talents of silver.
Nikarama’e ka ty fanalolahy mahasibeke rai-hetse boake Israele ao ami’ty talenta volafoty zato.
7 And there came a man of God to him, saying, O king, let not the host of Israel go with thee; for the Lord is not with Israel, [even] all the sons of Ephraim.
Fe niheo ama’e mb’eo ty ondatin’ Añahare nanao ty hoe: Ry mpanjaka, ko ampindrezeñe ama’o i firimboña’ Israeley, ie tsy am’ Israele t’Iehovà vaho tsy mpiaman-dra iaia amo ana’ i Efraimeo.
8 For if thou shalt undertake to strengthen [thyself] with these, then the lord shall put thee to flight before the enemies: for it is of the Lord both to strengthen and to put to flight.
Aa naho mb’eo irehe, le ano! mihafatrara an-kotakotake tsy mone hampitsingoritrien’ Añahare aolo’ o rafelahi’oo; fa aman’ Añahare ty haozarañe, ke hañolotse he handrotsake.
9 And Amasias said to the man of God, But what shall I do [for] the hundred talents which I have given to the army of Israel? And the man of God said, The Lord can give thee much more than these.
Le hoe t’i Amatsià am’indatin’ Añaharey. Aa vaho atao’ay akore i talenta zato natoloko amy firimboña’ Israeley? Le hoe ty natoi’ indatin’ Añaharey, Mahafanolotse maro mandikoatse izay t’Iehovà.
10 And Amasias separated from the army that came to him from Ephraim, that they might go away to their place; and they were very angry with Juda, and they returned to their place with great wrath.
Aa le nampolie’ i Amatsià o lahindefoñe nimb’ ama’e boak’ Efraimeo; fe nisolebotse am’ Iehodà ty haboseha’ iareo vaho nimpoly am-piforoforoañe.
11 And Amasias strengthened [himself], and took his people, and went to the valley of salt, and smote there the children of Seir ten thousand.
Aa le nihafatrarem-batañe t’i Ama­tsià, le niaoloa’e ondati’eo naho nimb’am-bava­tanen-tsira mb’eo vaho zinama’e ty rai-ale amo ana’ i Seireo.
12 And the children of Juda took ten thousand prisoners, and they carried them to the top of the precipice, and cast them headlong from the top of the precipice, and they were all dashed to pieces.
Tsinepa’ o ana’ Iehodao ka ty rai-ale veloñe, le nasese’ iereo mb’ ambone teva, le nahereretsa’ iareo boak’ ambone’ i herakerakey vaho nifoifoy.
13 And the men of the host whom Amasias sent back so that they should not go with him to battle, [went] and attacked the cities of Juda, from Samaria to Baethoron; and they smote three thousand among them, and took much spoil.
Nivolose’ i firimboñan-dahindefoñe nampolie’ i Amatsià tsy hionjoñe mb’an-kotakotakey o rova’ Iehodà boake Somerone pake Betekoroneo naho nanjamañe ty telo arivo am’ iereo vaho nampikopake vara maro.
14 And it came to pass, after Amasias had returned from smiting Idumea, that he brought home the gods of the children of Seir, and set them up for himself as gods, and bowed down before them, and he sacrificed to them.
Ie nimpoly amy nanjamana’e o nte-Edomeoy t’i Amatsià, le nendese’e o ndrahare’ o ana’ i Seireo le natroa’e ho ‘ndrahare’e vaho nibokobokoa’e naho nañoroa’e emboke.
15 And the anger of the Lord came upon Amasias, and he sent him a prophet, and he said to him, Why hast thou sought the gods of the people, which have not rescued their own people out of thine hand?
Aa le nisolebotse amy Amatsià ty haviñera’ Iehovà, le nañiraha’e mpitoky nanao ty hoe, Ino ty nipaia’o o ndrahare’ ondaty tsy naharombake ondati’eo am-pità’oo?
16 And it came to pass when the prophet was speaking to him, that he said to him, have I made thee king's counsellor? take heed lest thou be scourged: and the prophet forebore, and said, I know that [God] is disposed against thee to destroy thee, because thou hast done this thing, and hast not hearkened to my counsel.
Ie nisaontsia’e i entañe zay le hoe re tama’e: Tinendre ho mpanolo-kevem-panjaka v’iheo? Mifoneña; akore te ihe ho lafaeñe? le nijihetse i mpitokiy vaho nanao ty hoe: Apotako te sinafirin’ Añahare ty handrotsake azo, amy te nanoe’o o raha zao vaho tsy hinao’o i natorokoy.
17 And Amasias king of Juda took counsel, and sent to Joas, son of Joachaz, son of Jeu, king of Israel, saying, Come, and let us look one another in the face.
Nandrambe hevetse amy zao t’i Amatsià, mpanjaka’ Iehoda vaho nam­pañitrike mb’am’ Ioase, ana’ Iehoahaze, ana’ Ieho, mpanjaka’ Israele ty hoe: Mb’ etoan-drehe hifañatrefan-tika laharañe.
18 And Joas king of Israel sent to Amasias king of Juda, saying, The thistle that was in Libanus sent to the cedar that was in Libanus, saying, Give thy daughter to my son to wife; but, behold, thy wild beasts of the field that are in Libanus shall come: and the wild beasts did come, and trod down the thistle.
Le nampisangitrife’ Ioase mpanjaka’ Israele amy Amatsià mpanjaka’ Iehoda ty hoe: Nahitri’ ty hisatse e Libanone añe amy mendoraveñe e Libanoney ty hoe: Atoloro amy ana-dahikoy i anak’ am­pela’oy ho vali’e. Fe niary eo o bibi-li’ i Libanoneo nandialia i hisa­tsey.
19 Thou hast said, Behold, I have smitten Idumea, and thy stout heart exalts thee: now stay at home; for why dost thou implicate thyself in mischief, that thou shouldest fall, and Juda with thee.
Manao ty hoe irehe, te, Ingo, fa linafako t’i Edome; aa le mitoabotse añ’ arofo ao irehe, mibohaboha; fe imoneño ty akiba’o; ino ty hikaiha’o ty joy, hikorovoke, ihe naho Iehoda mindre ama’oy?
20 Nevertheless Amasias hearkened not, for it was of the Lord to deliver him into [the enemy's] hands, because he sought after the gods of the Idumeans.
Fe tsy hinao’ i Amatsià, fa boak’ aman’ Añahare i rahay, hanolora’e am-pitàn-drafelahi’ iareo, ie nipay o ‘ndrahare’ Edomeo.
21 So Joas king of Israel went up; and they saw one another, he and Amasias king of Juda, in Baethsamys, which is of Juda.
Aa le nionjo mb’eo t’Ioase mpanjaka’ Israele; le nifañisa-daharañe, ie naho i Ama­tsià mpanjaka’ Iehoda, e Bete­semese’ Iehoda eo.
22 And Juda was put to flight before Israel, and they fled every man to his tent.
Le nikorovok’ añatrefa’ Israele eo t’Iehoda vaho nitriban-day, songa mb’ an-kiboho’e mb’eo;
23 And Joas king of Israel took prisoner Amasias king of Juda, [son] of Joas, son of Joachaz, in Baethsamys, and brought him to Jerusalem; and he pulled down [part] of the wall of Jerusalem from the gate of Ephraim to the corner gate, four hundred cubits.
naho rinambe’ Ioase, mpanjaka’ Israele t’i Amatsià mpanjaka’ Iehoda, ana’ Ioase, ana’ Iehoakase, e Betesemese ao naho nendese’e mb’e Ierosalaime mb’eo vaho narotsa’e ty kijoli’ Ierosalaime boak’ an-dalam-bei’ i Efraime ey, pak’an-dalam-bein-kotsok’eo, kiho efa-jato.
24 And [he took] all the gold and the silver, and all the vessels that were found in the house of the Lord and with Abdedom, and the treasures of the king's house, and the hostages, and he returned to Samaria.
Le tinava’e iaby o volamena naho volafoty naho o fanake nizoeñe añ’ anjomban’ Añahare amy Ovede-edome naho am-panontonam-bara’ i anjombam-panjakaio naho ninday ondaty an-drohy vaho nimpoly mb’e Somerone mb’eo.
25 And Amasias the [son] of Joas king of Juda lived after the death of Joas the [son] of Joachaz king of Israel fifteen years.
Mbe niveloñe folo-taoñe lim’ amby tamy fivetraha’ Ioase ana’ Iehoakaze, mpanjaka’ Israeley t’i Amatsià, ana’ Ioase, mpanjaka’ Iehoda.
26 And the rest of the acts of Amasias, the first and the last, Lo! are they not written in the book of the kings of Juda and Israel?
Aa naho o fitoloña’ i Amatsià boak’ am-baloha’e pak’ am-para’eo, tsy fa sinokitse amy bokem-panjaka’ Iehoda naho Israeley hao?
27 And at the time when Amasias departed from the Lord, then they formed a conspiracy against him; and he fled from Jerusalem to Lachis: and they sent after him to Lachis, and slew him there.
Le nikinia aze o e Ierosalaimeo ty amy nitoliha’ i Amatsià tsy hañorike Iehovày, ie nipitsike mb’e Lakise mb’eo, fe nañirahañe e Lakise añe vaho vinono ao.
28 And they took him up on horses, and buried him with his fathers in the city of David.
Nendeseñe an-tsoavala vaho naleveñe aman-droae’e an-drova’ Iehoda ao.
