< 2 Kings 12 >

1 In the seventh year of Jehu, Jehoash reigned. And he reigned for forty years in Jerusalem. The name of his mother was Zebiah from Beersheba.
E higa mar abiriyo mar loch Jehu, Joash nobedo ruoth kendo nobedo e loch Jerusalem kuom higni piero angʼwen. Min mare ne iluongo ni Zibia; mane aa Bersheba.
2 And Jehoash did what was right in the sight of the Lord, during all the days that Jehoiada, the priest, taught him.
Joash notimo gima ber e wangʼ Jehova Nyasaye e higni duto mane Jehoyada jadolo ne ngʼadone rieko.
3 Yet still he did not take away the high places. For the people were still immolating, and burning incense, in the high places.
Kata kamano kuonde motingʼore gi malo mag wangʼo misengini ne ok omuki kendo ji nodhi nyime mana gi chiwo misengini kod wangʼo ubani mangʼwe ngʼar kanyo.
4 And Jehoash said to the priests: “All of the money for the holy things, which has been brought into the temple of the Lord from those who pass by, which is offered for the price of a soul, and which they bring into the temple of the Lord willingly, from their own free heart:
Joash nowachone jodolo niya, “Chokuru pesa duto mokel kaka chiwo mag pwodhruok e hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye; pesa moyudi e kwano ji, pesa moyudi e singruok mar ngʼato e ngimane kod pesa ma ngʼato ochiwo kuom hero mare owuon.
5 let the priests, according to their ranks, take and use it in order to repair the surfaces of the house, wherever they see anything in need of repair.”
Weuru jadolo ka jadolo oyud pesa koa kuom achiel kuom jokan pesa; pesano onego olosgo kamoro amora ma okethore ei hekalu.”
6 And yet, even until the twenty-third year of king Jehoash, the priests did not repair the surfaces of the temple.
Bangʼ higni piero ariyo gadek ka ruoth Joash osebedo e loch; jodolo ne pok oloso kuonde momukore ei hekalu.
7 And king Jehoash called the high priest, Jehoiada, and the priests, saying to them: “Why have you not repaired the surfaces of the temple? Therefore, you may no longer accept money according to your ranks. Instead, return it in order that the temple may be repaired.”
Kuom mano ruoth Joash noluongo Jehoyada jadolo kod jonabi mamoko, mopenjogi niya, “Angʼo momiyo ok ulos kuonde mane okethore e hekalu? Kik uchak ukaw pesa ir jokenou, to utergi ne joma onego olos kuonde momukore e hekalu.”
8 And so the priests were prohibited from accepting any more money from the people to repair the surfaces of the house.
Jodolo noyie ni ok gibi choko pesa kendo kuom ji kendo gin giwegi bende ok gibi loso kuonde mokethore mag hekalu.
9 And the high priest, Jehoiada, took a certain chest, and he opened a hole in the top, and he placed it beside the altar, to the right of those who were entering the house of the Lord. And the priests who kept the doors put all the money in it which was being brought into the temple of the Lord.
Jehoyada jadolo nokawo sanduku moro, motucho raumne kendo nokete e bat korachwich mar kendo mar misango kama ochomore gi dhood hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye. Pesa duto mane donjo e hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye, jodolo ma jorit dhoot ne ketogi e sandukuno.
10 And when they saw that there was a great amount of money in the chest, the scribe of the king and the high priest went up and poured it out. And they counted the money that was found in the house of the Lord.
Kinde duto mane gineno ka pesa opongʼo sanduku, jagoro maka ruoth kod jadolo maduongʼ ne biro kwano pesa mane okel e hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye kendo ketogi e mifuke.
11 And they gave it out, by number and measure, to the hands of those who were over the masons of the house of the Lord. And they weighed it out to the carpenters and masons, to those who were working in the house of the Lord
Ka pesago ne osengʼe kwan-gi, ne gimiyogi nyipeche mane ochungʼ ne tich loso hekalu. Kanyo bende ema ne gigoloe pesa ma ichulo joma tiyo ei hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye ma gin jogo randa, jogedo kod jopa kite.
12 and restoring the surfaces, and to those who were cutting stones, and buying timber and stones to be cut, so that the repairs to the house of the Lord might be finished: for all that was needed toward the expenses in order to strengthen the house.
Negingʼiewo bepe kendo gipayo kite mondo olosgo kuonde mokethore e hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye, kendo chulo gik moko duto mane dwarore mondo hekalu oduog kare.
13 Yet truly, from the same money, they did not make for the temple of the Lord water pitchers, or small hooks, or censers, or trumpets, or any vessel of gold or silver, from the money that was brought into the temple of the Lord.
Pesa mane okel e hekalu ne ok otigo kuom loso tewni mag fedha gi gik mingʼadogo otambi mar teyni, kod tewni, kod bakunde mag kiro remo, kaachiel gi turumbete kod gik moko duto mag dhahabu gi fedha mar hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye,
14 For it was given to those who were doing the work, so that the temple of the Lord might be repaired.
to pesano notigo kuom chulo jotich mane loso kuonde mane omukore e hekalu.
15 And they did not ration the money to the men who received it in order to distribute it to the artisans. Instead, they bestowed it with faith.
Ne ok gidwar ni mondo olernegi kaka pesa otiyo e lwet joma ne omi mondo ochul jotich, nimar ne gin joma ogen.
16 Yet truly, the money for offenses and the money for sins, they did not bring into the temple of the Lord, since it was for the priests.
To pesa mane ogol kuom misango mar pwodhruok e ketho gi mag chiwo migolo kuom richo motim ok ne kel ei hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye, mago ne iwene jodolo.
17 Then Hazael, the king of Syria, ascended and fought against Gath, and he captured it. And he directed his face, so that he might ascend against Jerusalem.
E ndalono ema Hazael ruodh Aram ne odhi momonjo Gath mi omake. Eka ne odhi mondo omonj Jerusalem bende.
18 For this reason, Jehoash, the king of Judah, took all the sanctified things, which Jehoshaphat, and Jehoram, and Ahaziah, his fathers, the kings of Judah, had consecrated and which he himself had offered, and all the silver that could be found in the treasuries of the temple of the Lord and in the palace of the king, and he sent it to Hazael, the king of Syria. And so he withdrew from Jerusalem.
To Joash ruodh Juda nokawo gik moko duto mowal mane kwerene kaka Jehoshafat, Jehoram kod Ahazia mane gin ruodhi mag Juda osechiwo ne Jehova Nyasaye. Gigo duto Joash noorone Hazael ruodh Aram, kaachiel gi gik moko duto mane en owuon osechiwo ne Jehova Nyasaye; kaachiel gi dhahabu duto mane ni e kar keno mar hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye kod kar keno mar od ruoth kendo Hazael ne ok omonjo Jerusalem.
19 Now the rest of the words of Jehoash, and all that he did, have these not been written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Judah?
To kuom weche moko mondiki e ndalo loch Joash gi gik moko duto mane otimo donge gin e kitabu mondikie weche mag ndalo mag ruodhi Juda?
20 Then his servants rose up and conspired among themselves. And they struck down Jehoash, at the house of Millo, on the descent of Silla.
Jodonge nowinjore mondo ondhoge mi onege e Beth Milo, e yo madhi mwalo Sila.
21 For Jozacar, the son of Shimeath, and Jehozabad, the son of Shomer, his servants, struck him, and he died. And they buried him with his fathers in the city of David. And Amaziah, his son, reigned in his place.
Jodonge mane onege ne gin Jozabad wuod Shimeath kod Jehozabad wuod Shomer. Notho moike kod kwerene e Dala Maduongʼ mar Daudi kendo Amazia wuode nobedo ruoth kare.
