2 Kings 13
1 In the three and twentieth year of Joas son of Ochozias king of Juda, Joachaz the son of Jehu reigned over Israel in Samaria, seventeen years.
Na rĩrĩ, mwaka-inĩ wa mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ na ĩtatũ wa wathani wa Joashu mũrũ wa Ahazia mũthamaki wa Juda, Jehoahazu mũrũ wa Jehu agĩtuĩka mũthamaki wa Isiraeli kũu Samaria, nake agĩathana mĩaka ikũmi na mũgwanja.
2 And he did evil before the Lord, and followed the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nabat, who made Israel to sin, and he departed not from them.
Nĩekire maũndũ mooru maitho-inĩ ma Jehova nĩ ũndũ wa kũrũmĩrĩra mehia ma Jeroboamu mũrũ wa Nebati, marĩa aatũmĩte Isiraeli meehie, nake ndaigana kũmatiga.
3 And the wrath of the Lord was kindled against Israel, and he delivered them into the hand of Hazael the king of Syria, and into the hand of Benadad the son of Hazael all days.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Jehova agĩcinwo nĩ marakara nĩ ũndũ wa Isiraeli, nake akĩmaneana ihinda iraaya moko-inĩ ma Hazaeli mũthamaki wa Suriata, na Beni-Hadadi mũriũ wake.
4 But Joachaz besought the face of the Lord, and the Lord heard him: for he saw the distress of Israel, because the king of Syria had oppressed them:
Nake Jehoahazu agĩthaitha Jehova, nake Jehova akĩmũigua tondũ nĩonete ũrĩa mũthamaki wa Suriata aahinyagĩrĩria Isiraeli.
5 And the Lord gave Israel a saviour, and they were delivered out of the hand of the king of Syria: and the children of Israel dwelt in their pavilions as yesterday and the day before.
Nake Jehova akĩhe Isiraeli mũhonokia, akĩmaruta kuuma watho-inĩ wa Suriata. Nĩ ũndũ ũcio andũ a Isiraeli magĩtũũra mĩciĩ-inĩ yao o ta tene.
6 But yet they departed not from the sins of Jeroboam, who made Israel to sin, but walked in them: and there still remained a grove also in Samaria.
No rĩrĩ, matiigana gũtigana na mehia ma nyũmba ya Jeroboamu, marĩa aatũmĩte Isiraeli meehie; na magĩthiĩ na mbere namo, o na ningĩ gĩtugĩ kĩa Ashera gĩgĩtũũra kĩrũgamĩte kũu Samaria.
7 And Joachaz had no more left of the people than fifty horsemen, and ten chariots, and ten thousand footmen: for the king of Syria had slain them, and had brought them low as dust by thrashing in the barnfloor.
Gũtirĩ kĩndũ gĩatigarĩtio gĩa ita rĩa Jehoahazu, tiga andũ arĩa maathiiaga mahaicĩte mbarathi mĩrongo ĩtano, na ngaari ikũmi cia ita, na thigari cia magũrũ 10,000, nĩgũkorwo mũthamaki wa Suriata nĩathũkĩtie icio ingĩ agĩcitua o ta rũkũngũ rwa kĩhuhĩro-inĩ.
8 Rut the rest of the acts of Joachaz, and all that he did, and his valour, are they not written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Israel?
Ha ũhoro wa maũndũ marĩa mangĩ makoniĩ wathani wa Jehoahazu, na ũrĩa wothe eekire, na maũndũ marĩa aahingirie-rĩ, githĩ matiandĩkĩtwo ibuku-inĩ rĩa mahinda ma athamaki a Isiraeli?
9 And Joachaz slept with his fathers, and they buried him in Samaria: and Joas his son reigned in his stead.
Nake Jehoahazu akĩhurũka hamwe na maithe make, na agĩthikwo Samaria. Nake mũriũ Jehoashu agĩtuĩka mũthamaki ithenya rĩake.
10 In the seven and thirtieth year of Joas king of Juda, Joas the son of Joachaz reigned over Israel in Samaria sixteen years.
Mwaka-inĩ wa mĩrongo ĩtatũ na mũgwanja wa Joashu mũthamaki wa Juda, Jehoashu mũrũ wa Jehoahazu agĩtuĩka mũthamaki wa Isiraeli kũu Samaria, nake agĩthamaka mĩaka ikũmi na ĩtandatũ.
11 And he did that which is evil in the sight of the Lord: he departed not from all the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nabat, who made Israel to sin, but he walked in them.
Nĩekire maũndũ mooru maitho-inĩ ma Jehova, na ndaatiganire na mehia o na mamwe ma Jeroboamu mũrũ wa Nebati, marĩa aatũmĩte Isiraeli meehie; aathiire na mbere namo.
12 But the rest of the acts of Joas, and all that he did, and his valour wherewith he fought against Amasias king of Juda, are they not written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Israel?
Ha ũhoro wa maũndũ marĩa mangĩ makoniĩ wathani wa Jehoashu, na ũrĩa wothe eekire, na maũndũ marĩa aahingirie, o na mbaara yake na Amazia mũthamaki wa Juda-rĩ, githĩ matiandĩkĩtwo ibuku-inĩ rĩa mahinda ma Athamaki a Isiraeli?
13 And Joas slept with his fathers: and Jeroboam sat upon his throne. But Joas was buried in Samaria with the kings of Israel.
Jehoashu akĩhurũka hamwe na maithe make, nake Jeroboamu agĩikarĩra gĩtĩ gĩake kĩa ũnene. Jehoashu aathikirwo kũu Samaria hamwe na athamaki a Isiraeli.
14 Now Eliseus was sick of the illness whereof he died: and Joas king of Israel went down to him, and wept before him, and said: O my father, my father, the chariot of Israel and the guider thereof.
Na rĩrĩ, Elisha aarĩ mũrũaru mũrimũ ũrĩa wamũũragire. Nake Jehoashu mũthamaki wa Isiraeli agĩikũrũka, agĩthiĩ kũmuona na akĩmũrĩrĩra. Akiuga atĩrĩ, “Wũi baba-ĩ! Wũi baba-ĩ! Ngaari cia ita na ahaici a mbarathi a Isiraeli!”
15 And Eliseus said to him: Bring a bow and arrows. And when he had brought him a bow, and arrows,
Nake Elisha akiuga atĩrĩ, “Oya ũta o na mĩguĩ.” nake agĩĩka o ũguo.
16 He said to the king of Israel: Put thy hand upon the bow. And when he had put his hand, Eliseus put his hands over the king’s hands,
Nake akĩĩra mũthamaki wa Isiraeli atĩrĩ, “Oya ũta na moko maku,” nake aarĩkia kuoya, Elisha akĩigĩrĩra mũthamaki moko.
17 And said: Open the window to the east. And when he had opened it, Eliseus said: Shoot an arrow. And he shot. And Eliseus said: The arrow of the Lord’s deliverance, and the arrow of the deliverance from Syria: and thou shalt strike the Syrians in Aphec, till thou consume them.
Akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Hingũra ndirica ya irathĩro,” Nake akĩmĩhingũra. Elisha akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Ikia mũguĩ!” Nake akĩũikia. Elisha akiuga atĩrĩ, “Ũyũ nĩ mũguĩ wa Jehova wa ũhootani, wa kũhoota Asuriata! Nĩũkahoota Asuriata kũu Afeki na ũmaniine biũ.”
18 And he said: Take the arrows. And when he had taken them, he said to him: Strike with an arrow upon the ground. And he struck three times and stood still.
Agĩcooka akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Oya mĩguĩ,” Nake mũthamaki akĩmĩoya. Elisha akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Ta mĩgũthithie thĩ.” Nake akĩmĩgũthithia thĩ maita matatũ, agĩtiga.
19 And the man of God was angry with him, and said: If thou hadst smitten five or six or seven times, thou hadst smitten Syria even to utter destruction: but now three times shalt thou smite it.
Nake mũndũ wa Ngai akĩrakara nĩ ũndũ wake, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Ũkwagĩrĩirwo nĩ kũmĩringithia maita matano kana matandatũ; ũguo nĩguo ũngĩgaatooria andũ a Suriata na ũmaniine biũ. No rĩu ũkaamahoota o maita matatũ tu.”
20 And Eliseus died, and they buried him. And the rovers from Moab came into the land the same year.
Nake Elisha agĩkua na agĩthikwo. Na rĩrĩ, atharĩkĩri a kuuma Moabi maahũthĩrĩte gũtoonya bũrũri-inĩ o kĩambĩrĩria kĩa mwaka.
21 And some that were burying a man, saw the rovers, and cast the body into the sepulchre of Eliseus. And when it had touched the bones of Eliseus, the man came to life, and stood upon his feet.
Hĩndĩ ĩmwe andũ amwe a Isiraeli magĩthika mũndũ-rĩ, o rĩmwe makĩona gĩkundi kĩa atharĩkĩri; nĩ ũndũ ũcio magĩikia kĩimba kĩa mũndũ ũcio maathikaga mbĩrĩra-inĩ ya Elisha. Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa kĩimba kĩu kĩahutanirie na mahĩndĩ ma Elisha, mũndũ ũcio akĩriũka, akĩrũgama na magũrũ make.
22 Now Hazael king of Syria afflicted Israel all the days of Joachaz:
Hazaeli mũthamaki wa Suriata aahinyĩrĩirie Isiraeli matukũ mothe ma ũthamaki wa Jehoahazu.
23 And the Lord had mercy on them, and returned to them because of his covenant, which he had made with Abraham and Isaac and Jacob: and he would not destroy them, nor utterly cast them away, unto this present time.
No rĩrĩ, Jehova akĩmatuga na akĩmaiguĩra tha, akĩmarũmbũiya nĩ ũndũ wa kĩrĩkanĩro gĩake na Iburahĩmu, na Isaaka, na Jakubu. Nginyagia ũmũthĩ, akoretwo atekwenda kũmaniina kana kũmaingata mehere mbere yake.
24 And Hazael king of Syria died, and Benadad his son reigned in his stead.
Hazaeli mũthamaki wa Suriata agĩkua, nake mũriũ Beni-Hadadi agĩtuĩka mũthamaki ithenya rĩake.
25 Now Joas the son of Joachaz, took the cities out of the hand of Benadad, the son of Hazael, which he had taken out of the hand of Joachaz his father by war, three times did Joas beat him, and he restored the cities to Israel.
Hĩndĩ ĩyo Jehoashu mũrũ wa Jehoahazu agĩtunya Beni-Hadadi mũrũ wa Hazaeli matũũra marĩa Hazaeli aatahĩte mbaara-inĩ kuuma kũrĩ ithe Jehoahazu. Joashu aamũtooririe maita matatũ, na nĩ ũndũ ũcio agĩcookia matũũra ma Isiraeli.
