2 Chronicles 21
1 Then Jehoshaphat slept with his fathers, and he was buried with them in the City of David. And his son, Jehoram, reigned in his place.
Jehoshafat notho kaka kwerene kendo noyike but kwerene e Dala Maduongʼ mar Daudi kendo Jehoram wuode nobedo ruoth kare.
2 And he had brothers, sons of Jehoshaphat: Azariah, and Jehiel, and Zechariah, and Azariah, and Michael, and Shephatiah. All these were sons of Jehoshaphat, the king of Judah.
Owete Jehoram ma yawuot Jehoshafat ne gin Azaria gi Jehiel gi Zekaria kod Azariahu gi Mikael kod Shefatia. Magi duto ne gin yawuot Jehoshafat ruodh Israel.
3 And their father gave to them many gifts of silver, and gold, and valuables, with very fortified cities in Judah. But the kingdom he handed on to Jehoram, because he was the firstborn.
Wuon-gi nosemiyogi mwandu mangʼeny mag fedha gi dhahabu gi gik moko ma nengogi tek kaachiel gi mier mag Juda mochiel gohinga motegno, kata kamano loch pinye nomiyo Jehoram pinyruoth nikech ne en wuode makayo.
4 Therefore, Jehoram rose up over the kingdom of his father. And when he had established himself, he killed with the sword all his brothers, and certain ones from the leaders of Israel.
Kane Jehoram nosegurore motegno e kom duongʼ wuon mare, nonego owetene gi ligangla kaachiel gi joka dhood ruoth mamoko mag Israel.
5 Jehoram was thirty-two years old when he had begun to reign. And he reigned for eight years in Jerusalem.
Jehoram ne ja-higni piero adek gariyo kane obedo ruoth, kendo norito piny kodak Jerusalem kuom higni aboro.
6 And he walked in the ways of the kings of Israel, just as the house of Ahab had done. For his wife was a daughter of Ahab, and he did evil in the sight of the Lord.
Noluwo timbe mag ruodhi Israel mana kaka jood Ahab notimo nimar nokendo nyar Ahab. Notimo timbe mamono e nyim Jehova Nyasaye.
7 But the Lord was not willing to destroy the house of David, because of the covenant that he had formed with him, and because he had promised that he would provide a lamp to him, and to his sons, for all time.
Kata kamano Jehova Nyasaye ne ok otieko od Daudi nikech noparo singruok mane otimo kode. Nosesingore ne Daudi gi ogandane ni ginibed e loch nyaka chiengʼ.
8 In those days, Edom rebelled, so as not to be subject to Judah, and they appointed for themselves a king.
E ndalo loch Jehoram, Edom nongʼanyo ne Juda mi gibedo gi ruodhgi giwegi.
9 And when Jehoram had gone across with his leaders, and all the horsemen who were with him, he arose in the night, and struck the Edomites (who had surrounded him), and all the commanders of his horsemen.
Omiyo Jehoram nodhi kuno gi jotende kod gechene duto mag lweny. Jo-Edom nolwore kaachiel gi jotend gechene mag lweny, to nochiewo gotieno momwomogi.
10 Even so, Edom rebelled, so as not to be under the authority of Judah, even to this day. Also at that time, Libnah withdrew, so as not to be under his hand. For he had forsaken the Lord, the God of his fathers.
Nyaka chil kawuono jo-Edom pod ongʼanyo ne jo-Juda. Jo-Libna bende nongʼanyo e ndalono nikech Jehoram noweyo Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasach kwerene.
11 Moreover, he also constructed high places in the cities of Judah. And he caused the inhabitants of Jerusalem to fornicate, and Judah to prevaricate.
Bende ne osegero kuonde motingʼore malo mag lemo e gode matindo mag Juda kendo nomiyo jo-Jerusalem oweyo Nyasaye kendo omiyo jo-Juda bende orwenyo.
12 Then letters were conveyed to him from the prophet Elijah, in which it was written: “Thus says the Lord, the God of David, your father: Because you have not walked in the ways of Jehoshaphat, your father, nor in the ways of Asa, the king of Judah,
Jehoram nonwangʼo baruwa koa ir Elija janabi mawacho niya, “Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasach kwaru Daudi wacho, ‘Ok iseluwo yore wuonu Jehoshafat kata mago mag Asa ruodh Juda.
13 but instead you have advanced along the paths of the kings of Israel, and you have caused Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem to fornicate, imitating the fornication of the house of Ahab, and moreover, you have killed your brothers, the house of your father, who are better than you:
To isewuotho e yore mag ruodhi mag Israel, omiyo isemiyo jo-Juda kod jo-Jerusalem oseweyo luwa mana kaka dhood Ahab notimo. Bende isenego oweteni monywoligo ma nyithind wuonu hie, joma ne ber moloyi.
14 behold, the Lord will strike you with a great plague, with all your people, and your sons and wives, and all your substance.
Koro omiyo Jehova Nyasaye biro chwado jogi, yawuoti kod mondi kod gimoro amora miluongo ni mari, noyud chwat malit.
15 And you shall be sickened by a very grievous disease of your bowels, until your inner organs depart, little by little, each day.”
In iwuon nibed gi tuo marach manocham nyimbiyi, kendo tuoni nomi nyimbiyi wuog oko.’”
16 Therefore, the Lord stirred up, against Jehoram, the spirit of the Philistines, and of the Arabians, who are along the borders of the Ethiopians.
Jehova Nyasaye nomiyo jo-Filistia gi jo-Arabu modak mokiewo kod jo-Kush obedo mamono kod Jehoram.
17 And they ascended into the land of Judah. And they laid waste to it. And they despoiled all the substance that was found in the house of the king, including even his sons and wives. Neither did there remain for him any son, except Jehoahaz, who was the youngest born.
Negimonjo Juda magi kedo kode kendo negipeyo gik moko duto mane nitie e od ruoth kaachiel gi yawuote kod monde. Onge wuode mane odongʼ makmana wuode ma chogo miluongo ni Ahazia.
18 And in addition to all these things, the Lord struck him with an incurable disease of the bowels.
Bangʼ mano Jehova Nyasaye nogoyo Jehoram gi tuo malich momako nyimbiye ma ok thiedhre.
19 And as day followed after day, and the space of time turned, the course of two years was completed. And after having been wasted by a long consumption, so much so that even his inner organs were discharged, the disease ended along with his life. And so he died of a very grievous illness. And the people did not make a funeral for him, according to the custom of burning, as they had done for his ancestors.
Bangʼ kinde manok madirom higni ariyo, tuone nomedore ma nyimbiye nowuok oko omiyo notho ka en gi rem malich. Joge ne ok olosone mach mar magenga kaka nolosne kwerene.
20 He was thirty-two years old when he had begun to reign, and he reigned for eight years in Jerusalem. And he did not walk uprightly. And they buried him in the City of David, yet truly, not in the sepulcher of the kings.
Jehoram ne ja-higni piero adek gariyo ka nodoko ruoth, kendo norito piny kuom higni aboro kodak Jerusalem. Notho maonge ngʼama nokuyo kuom thone kendo noyike e Dala Maduongʼ mar Daudi to ok kuma iyikoe ruodhi.
