< 2 Chronicles 15 >

1 And the Spirit of God came upon Azariah the son of Oded.
Roho mar Nyasaye nolor kuom Azaria wuod Oded.
2 And he went out to meet Asa, and said to him, Hear ye me, Asa, and all Judah and Benjamin: Jehovah is with you while ye are with him; and if ye seek him he will be found of you, but if ye forsake him he will forsake you.
Nodhi moromo kod Asa mowachone niya, “Chikuru itu mondo uwinja, in Asa gi jo-Juda duto kod jo-Benjamin. Jehova Nyasaye nikodu ka un bende un kode, kudware to ununwangʼe, to kujwangʼe to en bende nojwangʼu.
3 Now for a long while Israel [was] without the true God, and without a teaching priest, and without law;
Kuom kinde marabora jo-Israel ne onge gi Nyasaye ma adier kaachiel gi jadolo mane nyalo puonjogi kendo ne gionge gi chik.
4 but in their trouble they turned to Jehovah the God of Israel, and sought him, and he was found of them.
To kane gin e thagruok ne giywakne Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasach Israel ka gimanye mine giyude.
5 And in those times there [was] no peace to him that went out nor to him that came in, but great disturbances were amongst all the inhabitants of the countries.
E ndalogo ne ok yot mondo ngʼato owuothi ma ok onwangʼo chandruok e yo, ma ne timore nikech jopiny duto nopongʼ gi chandruok.
6 And nation was broken against nation, and city against city; for God disturbed them with all manner of distress.
Oganda moro ne kedo gi oganda machielo kendo dala moro bende ne kedo gi dala moro, nikech Nyasaye nooronigi chandruok mangʼeny.
7 But as for you, be firm and let not your hands be weak; for there is a reward for your deeds.
Un to beduru motegno kendo chunyu kik ol nimar nochulu kuom tiju.”
8 And when Asa heard these words and the prophecy of Oded the prophet, he took courage, and put away the abominations out of all the land of Judah and Benjamin, and out of the cities that he had taken from mount Ephraim, and renewed the altar of Jehovah, that was before the porch of Jehovah.
Kane Asa owinjo wechegi to gi koro mar janabi Azaria wuod Oded, notimo chir mogolo nyiseche manono e piny Juda kod Benjamin duto kod mier duto manokawo e gode matindo mag Efraim. Noloso kendo mar misango mar Jehova Nyasaye mane okethore mane nitie e nyim agola mar hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye.
9 And he assembled all Judah and Benjamin, and the strangers with them out of Ephraim and Manasseh, and out of Simeon; for they fell away to him out of Israel in abundance, when they saw that Jehovah his God was with him.
Bangʼe nochoko jo-Juda duto kod jo-Benjamin kaachiel gi jo-Efraim, jo-Manase kod jo-Simeon manodak e kindgi nimar ji mangʼeny noweyo jo-Israel mobiro ire kane gineno ni Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasache nenikode.
10 And they assembled themselves at Jerusalem in the third month of the fifteenth year of the reign of Asa.
Negichokore Jerusalem e dwe mar adek e hik loch Asa mar apar gabich.
11 And they sacrificed to Jehovah in that day, of the spoil that they had brought, seven hundred oxen and seven thousand sheep.
Chiengʼno negitimone Jehova Nyasaye misango gi dhok mia abiriyo kod rombe kod diek alufu abiriyo mane gin gik mane giyako.
12 And they entered into a covenant to seek Jehovah the God of their fathers, with all their heart, and with all their soul,
Negitimo singruok ni gibiro manyo Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasach kweregi gi chunygi kod ngimagi duto.
13 and that whoever would not seek Jehovah the God of Israel should be put to death, whether small or great, whether man or woman.
Jogo duto ma ok noluw Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasach jo-Israel, obed ngʼama tin kata maduongʼ, obed dichwo kata dhako nonegi.
14 And they swore to Jehovah with a loud voice, and with shouting, and with trumpets, and with cornets.
Negitimo winjruok gi Jehova Nyasaye ka gikok gi dwol maduongʼ, ka gigoyo koko gi turumbete kod tungʼ.
15 And all Judah rejoiced at the oath; for they took the oath with all their heart, and sought him with their whole desire; and he was found of them. And Jehovah gave them rest round about.
Jo-Juda duto nomor kod singruokno nikech negisingore gi chunygi duto. Negimanyo Nyasaye gi chuny achiel kendo negiyude. Omiyo Jehova Nyasaye nomiyogi kwe kuonde duto.
16 And also Maachah, the mother of Asa the king, he removed from being queen, because she had made an idol for the Asherah; and Asa cut down her idol, and stamped it, and burned it in the valley Kidron.
Ruoth Asa nogolo damare Maaka e kome mane entie kaka min ruoth nikech noloso sirni milamo mar Ashera. Asa nongʼado yien-no mokinge matindo tindo mowangʼe e holo mar Kidron.
17 But the high places were not removed from Israel; only, Asa's heart was perfect all his days.
Kata obedo ni Asa ne ok oketho kuonde motingʼore malo mag lemo e Israel, chunye nochiwore chutho ni Jehova Nyasaye ndalo duto mag ngimane.
18 And he brought into the house of God the things which his father had dedicated, and the things which he himself had dedicated, silver, and gold, and vessels.
Nokelo gige dhahabu gi fedha kod mula e hekalu mar Nyasaye ma en owuon gi wuon mare nosepwodho.
19 And there was no war until the thirty-fifth year of the reign of Asa.
Ne onge lweny kendo nyaka higa mar piero adek gabich mar loch Asa.
