< 2 Chronicles 28 >
1 Ahaz was twenty years old when he had begun to reign, and he reigned for sixteen years in Jerusalem. He did not do what is right in the sight of the Lord, as his father David did.
Ahaz ne ja-higni piero ariyo kane obedo ruoth kendo nobedo e loch kodak Jerusalem kuom higni apar gauchiel kodak Jerusalem. To timbene ne ok longʼo e nyim wangʼ Jehova Nyasaye kaka timbe Daudi kwar mare ne chalo.
2 Instead, he walked in the ways of the kings of Israel. Moreover, he also cast statues for the Baals.
Noluwo timbe ruodhi mag Israel kendo nothedho kido milamogo Baal.
3 It is he who burned incense in the Valley of the son of Hinnom. And he purified his sons by fire, in accord with the ritual of the nations that the Lord put to death at the advent of the sons of Israel.
Notimo liswa e Holo mar Ben Hinom kendo nochiwo nyithinde e mach kaka misango miwangʼo pep koluwo timbe mamono mag ogendini mane Jehova Nyasaye oriembo e nyim jo-Israel.
4 Also, he was sacrificing and burning incense in the high places, and on the hills, and under every leafy tree.
Notimo misengini kendo owangʼo ubani mangʼwe ngʼar e kuonde motingʼore malo mag lemo, ewi gode matindo kendo e bwo yiende motimo otiep.
5 And so the Lord, his God, delivered him into the hand of the king of Syria, who struck him and took great plunder from his kingdom. And he carried it away to Damascus. Also, he was delivered into the hands of the king of Israel, and he struck him with great affliction.
Omiyo Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasache nochiwe e lwet ruodh Aram mi jo-Aram noloye kendo nomako joge mangʼeny kaka joma otwe kendo noterogi Damaski. Bende nochiwe e lwet ruodh Israel, mane onego joge mangʼeny.
6 And Pekah, the son of Remaliah, killed, on one day, one hundred twenty thousand, all of them men of war from Judah, because they had forsaken the Lord, the God of their fathers.
Kuom odiechiengʼ achiel Peka wuod Remalia nonego jolweny mag Juda alufu achiel nikech Juda nosejwangʼo Jehova Nyasaye, ma Nyasach kweregi.
7 In the same time, Zichri, a powerful man of Ephraim, killed Maaseiah, the son of the king, and Azrikam, the governor of his house, and also Elkanah, who was second to the king.
Zikri thuon Efraim nonego Maseya wuod ruoth kod Azrikam jatelo mane ochungʼ ne od ruoth kod Elkana mane jalup ruoth.
8 And the sons of Israel seized, from their brothers, two hundred thousand women, boys, and girls, and immense plunder. And they took it away to Samaria.
Jo-Israel nomako owetegi alufu mia ariyo mane gin mon kod yawuowi kod nyiri. Bende ne giyako mwandu mangʼeny mane gitingʼo gidwoko Samaria.
9 At that time, there was a prophet of the Lord there, named Oded. And going out to meet the army arriving in Samaria, he said to them: “Behold, the Lord, the God of your fathers, having become angry against Judah, has delivered them into your hands. But you have killed them by atrocities, so that your cruelty has reached up to heaven.
To noyudo ka janabi mar Jehova Nyasaye ma nyinge Oded ne ni kanyo kendo nodhi moromo kod jolweny kane gidwogo Samaria. Nowachonegi niya, “Jehova Nyasaye, ma Nyasach kwereu osechiwo jo-Juda e lwetu nikech nokecho kodgi, to un to koro usenegogi gi ich wangʼ marach omiyo wachni osetundo ira e polo.
10 Moreover, you wanted to subjugate the sons of Judah and Jerusalem as your men and women servants, which is a work that should never be done. And so you sinned in this matter against the Lord your God.
To koro udwaro keto chwo kod mond Juda gi Jerusalem wasumbiniu. Donge un bende un joketho kuom timo richo e nyim Jehova Nyasaye, ma Nyasachu?
11 But listen to my counsel, and release the captives, whom you have brought from your brothers. For a great fury of the Lord is hanging over you.”
Omiyo chikuru itu maber! Weuru joweteu ma usemako odogi nimar mirima mager osemako Jehova Nyasaye nikech un.”
12 And so, some of the leaders of the sons of Ephraim, Azariah, the son of Johanan, Berechiah, the son of Meshillemoth, Jehizkiah, the son of Shallum, and Amasa, the son of Hadlai, stood up against those who were arriving from the battle.
Eka jotelo moko mag Efraim kaka Azaria wuod Jehohanan gi Berekia wuod Meshilemoth gi Jehizkia wuod Shalum kod Amasa wuod Hadlai bende nodhi mokwero jogo mane oa e lweny.
13 And they said to them: “You shall not lead back captives to here, lest we sin against the Lord. Why are you willing to add to our sins, and to build upon our old offenses? For indeed, the sin is great, and the furious anger of the Lord is hanging over Israel.”
Negiwacho niya, “Ok unyal kelo jogo ma umako kaeni, nimar kutimo kamano to wanabed joketho e nyim Jehova Nyasaye. Koso udwaro medo richo ewi mago ma wasetimo? Richo ma wasetimo duongʼ moloyo kendo mirimbe mager ni kuom Israel.”
14 And the warriors released the spoils and all that they had seized, in the sight of the leaders and the entire multitude.
Kuom mano, jolwenygi noweyo joma negimako kaachiel gi mwandu mane gipeyo ka gin e nyim jotelo kod joma nochokore duto.
15 And the men, whom we mentioned above, rose up and took the captives. All those who were naked, they clothed from the spoils. And when they had clothed them, and had given them shoes, and had refreshed them with food and drink, and had anointed them because of the hardship, and had cared for them, whoever was not able to walk and whoever was feeble in body, they set them upon beasts of burden, and they led them to Jericho, the city of palm trees, to their brothers, and they themselves returned to Samaria.
Joma noluong nying-gigo nokawo jogo mane omaki kendo negimiyo joma ne niduge duto lewni mane gigolo kuom gik mane gipeyo. Ne gimiyogi lewni kod wuoche, chiemo kod math, ne giwiro kuonde manoriemo gi mo. Jogo duto mane ool notingʼ e punde ka giterogi Jeriko, ma bende iluongo ni Dala Maduongʼ mar Othidhe kuma jowetegi mamoko ne nitiere, bangʼe negidok Samaria.
16 In that time, king Ahaz sent to the king of the Assyrians, requesting assistance.
E kindeno ruoth Ahaz nokwayo ruodh Asuria mondo okonye.
17 And the Edomites arrived and struck down many of Judah, and they seized great plunder.
Jo-Edom bende nomonjo jo-Juda kendo negimako ji mangʼeny.
18 Also, the Philistines spread out among the cities of the plains, and to the south of Judah. And they seized Beth-shemesh, and Aijalon, and Gederoth, and also Soco, and Timnah, and Gimzo, with their villages, and they lived in them.
Jo-Filistia bende nosemonjo mier mane ni e bwo gode matindo kod man Negev ei Juda. Negimako kendo gikawo Beth Shemesh, Aijalon kod Gederoth kaachiel gi Soko, Timna kod Gimzo koriwore gi mier matindo molworogi.
19 For the Lord had humbled Judah because of Ahaz, the king of Judah, since he had stripped it of help, and had shown contempt for the Lord.
Jehova Nyasaye nodwoko jo-Juda chien nikech timbe Ahaz ruodh Israel nimar nosejiwo timbe maricho e piny Juda, kendo noseweyo luwo Jehova Nyasaye.
20 And he led against him Tilgath-pilneser, the king of the Assyrians, who also afflicted him and laid waste to him, without resistance.
Tiglath-Pilesa ruodh Asuria nobiro ire to kar konye to nomonje.
21 And so Ahaz, despoiling the house of the Lord, and the house of the kings and the leaders, gave gifts to the king of the Assyrians, and yet it profited him nothing.
Kuom mano, Ahaz nokawo gik moko mag hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye gi od ruoth kod ute joka ruoth momiyo ruodh Asuria to mano ne ok okonye.
22 Moreover, in the time of his anguish, he also added to his contempt against the Lord. King Ahaz himself, by himself,
E ndalo mar chandruokne ruoth Ahaz nomedo weyo luwo Jehova Nyasaye.
23 immolated victims to the gods of Damascus, those who had struck him. And he said: “The gods of the kings of Syria assist them, and so I will please them with victims, and they will help me.” But to the contrary, they had been the ruin of him and of all Israel.
Notimo liswa ni nyiseche manono mag jo-Damaski mane oseloye. Noparo niya, “Nikech nyiseche manono mag ruodhi jo-Aram nokonyogi, abiro timo nigi liswa mondo mi gikonya.” To negimiyo opodho kaachiel gi jo-Israel.
24 And so, Ahaz, having despoiled and broken apart all the vessels of the house of God, closed up the doors of the temple of God, and made for himself altars in all the corners of Jerusalem.
Ahaz nochoko gige lemo mag hekalu mar Nyasaye mogologi oko. Eka noloro dhout hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye bangʼe nogero kende mag misango e kamoro amora ma yore mag Jerusalem ogomoe.
25 Also, he constructed altars in all the cities of Judah, in order to burn frankincense, and so he provoked the Lord, the God of his fathers, to wrath.
Nogero kuonde motingʼore gi malo mag lemo e miech Juda duto mondo otim misango ne nyiseche mamoko kokwinyogo Jehova Nyasaye, ma Nyasach kweregi mondo owangʼ iye.
26 But the rest of his words, and all his works, the first and the last, have been written in the book of the kings of Judah and Israel.
Gik mamoko duto mane otimo e ndalo lochne kod gik manotimo duto koa kar chakruokgi nyaka gikogi ondikie kitap ruodhi mag Juda kod Israel.
27 And Ahaz slept with his fathers. And they buried him in the city of Jerusalem. And they did not allow him to be in the sepulchers of the kings of Israel. And his son, Hezekiah, reigned in his place.
Ahaz notho moyweyo gi kwerene kendo noyike e dala maduongʼ mar Jerusalem; to ne ok oike e liete ruodhi mag Israel. Kendo Hezekia wuode nobedo ruoth kare.
