Kings IV 14
1 In the second year of Joas the son of Joachaz king of Israel, did Amessias also the son of Joas the king of Juda begin to reign.
Mʼchaka chachiwiri cha Yehowasi mwana wa Yowahazi mfumu ya Israeli, Amaziya mwana wa Yowasi mfumu ya Yuda anayamba kulamulira.
2 Twenty and five years old was he when he began to reign, and he reigned twenty and nine years in Jerusalem: and his mother's name [was] Joadim of Jerusalem.
Iye anali ndi zaka 25 pamene anakhala mfumu ndipo analamulira mu Yerusalemu zaka 29. Amayi ake anali Yehoyadini wa ku Yerusalemu.
3 And he did that which was right in the sight of the Lord, but not as David his father: he did according to all things that his father Joas did.
Iye anachita zolungama pamaso pa Yehova, koma osafanana ndi zomwe anachita Davide kholo lake. Iye anatsatira zochita zonse za Yowasi abambo ake.
4 Only he removed not the high places: as yet the people sacrificed and burnt incense on the high places.
Komabe sanachotse malo opembedzerapo mafano. Anthu anapitiriza kupereka nsembe ndi kufukiza lubani kumeneko.
5 And it came to pass when the kingdom was established in his hand, that he killed his servants that had slain the king his father.
Atakhazikika mu ufumu wake, Amaziya anapha atumiki ake amene anapha abambo ake, mfumu ija.
6 But he killed not the sons of those that had slain him; according as it is written in the book of the laws of Moses, as the Lord gave commandment, saying, The fathers shall not be put to death for the children, and the children shall not be put to death for the fathers; but every one shall die for his own sins.
Komatu iye sanaphe ana a anthu amene anapha abambo ake potsatira zomwe zinalembedwa mʼbuku la Malamulo a Mose. Mʼmenemo Yehova analamula kuti, “Makolo asaphedwe chifukwa cha ana awo, ndipo ana asaphedwe chifukwa cha makolo awo, koma aliyense ayenera kufa chifukwa cha zolakwa zake.”
7 He struck of Edom ten thousand in the valley of salt, and took the Rock in the war, and called its name Jethoel until this day.
Iye ndiye amene anapha Aedomu 10,000 mʼchigwa cha Mchere nalanda mzinda wa Sela pa nkhondo ndipo anawutcha Yokiteeli, dzina lake ndi lomwelo mpaka lero lino.
8 Then Amessias sent messengers to Joas son of Joachaz son of Ju king of Israel, saying, Come, let us look one another in the face.
Tsono Amaziya anatuma amithenga kwa Yehowasi mwana wa Yehowahazi, mwana wa Yehu mfumu ya Israeli ndi kumuopseza kuti, “Bwera tidzaonane maso ndi maso.”
9 And Joas the king of Israel sent to Amessias king of Juda, saying, The thistle that was in Libanus sent to the cedar that was in Libanus, saying, Give my daughter to your son to wife: and the wild beasts of the field that were in Libanus passed by and trod down the thistle.
Koma Yehowasi mfumu ya Israeli anabweza mawu kwa Amaziya mfumu ya Yuda kuti, “Mtengo wa minga wa ku Lebanoni unatumiza uthenga kwa mkungudza wa ku Lebanoni. ‘Patse mwana wako wamkazi kuti ndimukwatire.’ Kenaka chirombo cha ku Lebanoni chinabwera ndi kupondaponda mtengo wa mingawo.
10 You have struck and wounded Edom, and your heart has lifted you up: stay at home and glorify yourself; for therefore are you quarrelsome to your hurt? So [both] you will fall and Juda with you.
Inde iwe wagonjetsa Edomu ndipo tsopano wayamba kudzikuza. Dzitamandire chifukwa cha kupambana kwako, koma khala kwanu konko! Nʼchifukwa chiyani ukuyamba dala mavuto amene adzakuwononga pamodzi ndi Yuda?”
11 Nevertheless Amessias listened not: so Joas king of Israel went up, and he and Amessias king of Juda looked one another in the face in Baethsamys of Juda.
Koma Amaziya sanamvere zimenezi. Choncho Yehowasi mfumu ya Israeli anakamuthira nkhondo. Yehowasi ndi Amaziya anakumana maso ndi maso ku Beti-Semesi mʼdziko la Yuda.
12 And Juda was overthrown before Israel, and [every] man fled to his tent.
Israeli anagonjetsa Yuda ndipo munthu aliyense anathawira kwawo.
13 And Joas king of Israel took Amessias the son of Joas the son of Ochozias, in Baethsamys; and he came to Jerusalem, and broke down the wall of Jerusalem, [beginning] at the gate of Ephraim as far as the gate of the corner, four hundred cubits.
Yehowasi mfumu ya Israeli anagwira Amaziya mfumu ya Yuda, mwana wa Yowasi, mwana wa Ahaziya ku Beti-Semesi. Ndipo anapita ku Yerusalemu nakagwetsa khoma la Yerusalemu kuyambira ku Chipata cha Efereimu mpaka ku Chipata Chapangodya, gawo lotalika mamita 180.
14 And he took the gold, and the silver, and all the vessels that were found in the house of the Lord, and in the treasures of the king's house, and the hostages, and returned to Samaria.
Iye anatenga golide ndi siliva yense pamodzi ndi ziwiya zonse zimene zinali mʼNyumba ya Yehova ndi zimene zinali mosungira chuma cha nyumba ya mfumu. Iye anagwiranso anthu nabwerera ku Samariya.
15 And the rest of the acts of Joas, [even] all that he did in his might, how he warred with Amessias king of Juda, are not these things written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?
Ntchito zina za Yehowasi ndi zonse zimene anachita, kuwonjezera za nkhondo yake ndi Amaziya mfumu ya Yuda, kodi sizinalembedwe mʼbuku la mbiri ya mafumu a Israeli?
16 And Joas slept with his fathers, and was buried in Samaria with the kings of Israel; and Jeroboam his son reigned in his stead.
Yehowasi anamwalira ndipo anayikidwa mʼmanda mu Samariya pamodzi ndi mafumu a Israeli. Ndipo mwana wake Yeroboamu analowa ufumu mʼmalo mwake.
17 And Amessias the son of Joas king of Juda lived after the death of Joas son of Joachaz king of Israel fifteen years.
Amaziya mwana wa Yowasi mfumu ya Yuda anakhala zaka khumi ndi zisanu atamwalira Yehowasi mwana wa Yehowahazi mfumu ya Israeli.
18 And the rest of the acts of Amessias, and all that he did, [are] not these written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Juda?
Ntchito zina za Amaziya, kodi sizinalembedwe mʼbuku la mbiri ya mafumu a Yuda?
19 And they formed a conspiracy against him in Jerusalem, and he fled to Lachis: and they sent after him to Lachis, and killed him there.
Anthu anapangana zomuchita chiwembu mu Yerusalemu ndipo Amaziya anathawira ku Lakisi, koma anatumiza anthu ku Lakisiko nakamuphera komweko.
20 And they brought him upon horses; and he was buried in Jerusalem with his fathers in the city of David.
Anabwera naye ku pa kavalo ku Yerusalemu ndi kumuyika mʼmanda pamodzi ndi makolo ake mu Mzinda wa Davide.
21 And all the people of Juda took Azarias, and he was sixteen years old, and made him king in the room of his father Amessias.
Ndipo anthu onse a ku Yuda anatenga Azariya, amene anali ndi zaka 16 namulonga ufumu mʼmalo mwa abambo ake Amaziya.
22 He built Aeloth, and restored it to Juda, after the king slept with his fathers.
Azariya anamanga mzinda wa Elati ndi kuwubwezeretsa ku Yuda, Amaziya atamwalira.
23 In the fifteenth year of Amessias son of Joas king of Juda began Jeroboam son of Joas to reign over Israel in Samaria forty and one years.
Mʼchaka cha khumi ndi chisanu cha Amaziya mwana wa Yowasi mfumu ya Yuda, Yeroboamu mwana wa Yehowasi mfumu ya Israeli analowa ufumu ku Samariya ndipo analamulira za 41.
24 And he did that which was evil in the sight of the Lord: he departed not from all the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nabat, who led Israel to sin.
Iye anachita zoyipa pamaso pa Yehova ndipo sanasiye machimo a Yeroboamu mwana wa Nebati, amene anachimwitsa nawo Israeli.
25 He recovered the coast of Israel from the entering in of Aemath to the sea of Araba, according to the word of the Lord God of Israel, which he spoke by his servant Jonas the son of Amathi, the prophet of Gethchopher.
Iye ndi amene anabwezeretsanso malire a Israeli kuyambira ku Lebo Hamati mpaka ku Nyanja ya Araba, molingana ndi zimene ananena Yehova Mulungu wa Israeli, kudzera mwa mtumiki wake Yona mwana wa Amitai, mneneri wochokera ku Gati-Heferi.
26 For the Lord saw [that] the affliction of Israel [was] very bitter, and that they were few in number, straitened and in lack, and destitute, and Israel had no helper.
Pakuti Yehova anaona masautso a Israeli amene anali owawa kwambiri, panalibe kapolo kapena mfulu ngakhale wina aliyense amene akanathandiza Israeli.
27 And the Lord said that he would not blot out the seed of Israel from under heaven; so he delivered them by the hand of Jeroboam the son of Joas.
Pakuti Yehova anali asananene zofafaniza ufumu wa Israeli pa dziko lapansi, Iye anawapulumutsa kudzera mʼdzanja la Yeroboamu mwana wa Yowasi.
28 And the rest of the acts of Jeroboam and all that he did, and his mighty deeds, which he achieved in war, and how he recovered Damascus and Aemath to Juda in Israel, [are] not these things written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?
Ntchito zina za Yeroboamu ndi zonse zimene anachita, za kupambana kwake pa nkhondo, za mmene anagonjetsera Damasiko ndi Hamati, imene inali mizinda ya Yuda, kodi sizinalembedwe mʼbuku la mbiri ya mafumu a Israeli?
29 And Jeroboam slept with his fathers, even with the kings of Israel; and Zacharias his son reigned in his stead.
Yeroboamu anamwalira ndipo anayikidwa mʼmanda pamodzi ndi mafumu a Israeli. Ndipo Zekariya mwana wake analowa ufumu mʼmalo mwake.
