2 Chronicles 16
1 And in the six and thirtieth year of his kingdom, Baasa the king of Israel came up against Juda, and built a wall about Rama, that no one might safely go out or come in of the kingdom of Asa.
Tamin’ ny taona fahenina amby telo-polo nanjakan’ i Asa dia niakatra Basa, mpanjakan’ ny Isiraely, hamely ny Joda, ka nanamboatra an’ i Rama izy mba tsy hisy hahazo hivoaka na hiditra ho an’ i Asa, mpanjakan’ ny Joda.
2 Then Asa brought out silver and gold out of the treasures of the house of the Lord, and of the king’s treasures, and sent to Benadad king of Syria, who dwelt in Damascus, saying:
Ary Asa namoaka volafotsy sy volamena avy tamin’ ny rakitry ny tranon’ i Jehovah sy ny tranon’ ny mpanjaka, dia nampitondra azy tany amin’ i Beni-hadada, mpanjakan’ i Syria, izay nitoetra tany Damaskosy, ka nanao hoe:
3 There is a league between me and thee, as there was between my father and thy father, wherefore I have sent thee silver and gold, that thou mayst break thy league with Baasa king of Israel, and make him depart from me.
Misy fanekena amiko sy aminao, dia ilay tamin’ ny raiko sy ny rainao; koa, indro, mampanatitra volafotsy sy volamena ho anao aho, ka andeha, tsoahy ny fanekenao amin’ i Basa, mpanjakan’ ny Isiraely, mba hialany amiko.
4 And then Benadad heard this, he sent the captains of his armies against the cities of Israel: and they took Ahion, and Dan, and Abelmaim, and all the walled cities of Nephtali.
Ary Beni-hadada nanaiky ny tenin’ i Asa mpanjaka ka naniraka ireo komandin’ ny miaramilany hamely ny tanànan’ ny Isiraely; dia nandrava an’ Iona sy Dana sy Abela-maima ary ny trano fitehirizana rehetra izay teny amin’ ny tanànan’ ny Naftaly izy.
5 And when Baasa heard of it, he left off the building of Rama, and interrupted his work.
Ary nony ren’ i Basa izany, dia nitsahatra tsy nanamboatra an’ i Rama intsony izy, fa natsahany ny asany.
6 Then king Asa took all Juda, and they carried away from Rama the stones, and the timber that Baasa had prepared for the building: and he built with them Gabaa, and Maspha.
Ary Asa mpanjaka namory ny Joda rehetra; ary dia nesorin’ ny olona ny vato sy ny hazo tao Rama, izay naorin’ i Basa, ka nentiny nanamboatra an’ i Geba sy Mizpa.
7 At that time Hanani the prophet came to Asa king of Juda, and said to him: Because thou hast had confidence in the king of Syria, and not in the Lord thy God, therefore hath the army of the king of Syria escaped out of thy hand.
Ary tamin’ izany andro izany dia nankeo amin’ i Asa, mpanjakan’ ny Joda, Hanany mpahita ka nanao taminy hoe: Noho ny niankinanao tamin’ ny mpanjakan’ i Syria fa tsy niankina tamin’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrao ianao, dia afa-nandositra ny tananao ny miaramilan’ ny mpanjakan’ i Syria.
8 Were not the Ethiopians, and the Libyans much more numerous in chariots, and horsemen, and an exceeding great multitude: yet because thou trustedst in the Lord, he delivered them into thy hand?
Tsy maro be va ny Etiopiana sy ny Lobita, ary tsy maro be koa va ny kalesiny sy ny mpitaingin-tsoavaliny? Nefa noho ny niankinanao tamin’ i Jehovah, dia natolony teo an-tananao ireo.
9 For the eyes of the Lord behold all the earth, and give strength to those who with a perfect heart trust in him. Wherefore thou hast done foolishly, and for this cause from this time wars shall arise against thee.
Fa ny mason’ i Jehovah mijery eny tontolo eny eran’ ny tany rehetra, mba hisehoany aman-kery hamonjy izay manana fo mahitsy aminy. Adala ianao tamin’ izany, ka dia hisy ady hahazo anao hatramin’ izao.
10 And Asa was angry with the seer, and commanded him to be put in prison: for he was greatly enraged because of this thing: and he put to death many of the people at that time.
Dia tezitra tamin’ ilay mpahita Asa ka nanao azy tao an-trano-maizina; fa nisafoaka aminy indrindra izy noho izany. Ary ny olona sasany koa dia nampahorin’ i Asa tamin’ izay.
11 But the works of Asa the first and last are written in the book of the kings of Juda and Israel.
Ary, indro, ny tantaran’ i Asa, na ny voalohany na ny farany, dia efa voasoratra ao amin’ ny bokin’ ny mpanjakan’ ny Joda sy ny Isiraely.
12 And Asa fell sick in the nine and thirtieth year of his reign, of a most violent pain in his feet, and yet in his illness he did not seek the Lord, but rather trusted in the skill of physicians.
Tamin’ ny taona fahasivy amby telo-polo nanjakan’ i Asa dia narary tamin’ ny tongony izy, ka nihamafy indrindra ny aretiny; nefa na dia narary aza izy, dia tsy nitady an’ i Jehovah, fa ny mpanao fanafody ihany.
13 And he slept with his fathers: and he died in the one and fortieth year of his reign.
Ary Asa lasa nodi-mandry any amin’ ny razany; maty izy tamin’ ny taona fahiraika amby efa-polo nanjakany.
14 And they buried him in his own sepulchre, which he had made for himself in the city of David: and they laid him on his bed full of spices and odoriferous ointments, which were made by the art of the perfumers, and they burnt them over him with very great pomp.
Dia nalevina tao amin’ ny fasany ihany izy, izay nolavahany tao an-Tanànan’ i Davida, ka nampandrina teo amin’ ny fandriana efa nofenoina zava-manitra samy hafa voaharoharo araka ny fanaon’ ny mpangaroharo zava-manitra, ary nandoroany zavatra betsaka ho fisaonana azy.
