1 Kings 15
1 Abijam became king of Judah in the eighteenth year of the reign of King Jeroboam, son of Nebat.
Ní ọdún kejìdínlógún ìjọba Jeroboamu ọmọ Nebati, Abijah jẹ ọba lórí Juda,
2 He reigned in Jerusalem for three years. His mother's name was Maacah, daughter of Abishalom.
ó sì jẹ ọba ní ọdún mẹ́ta ní Jerusalẹmu. Orúkọ ìyá rẹ̀ sì ni Maaka, ọmọbìnrin Absalomu.
3 Abijam committed all the sins his father had before him. He was not wholly dedicated to the Lord his God as his forefather David had been.
Ó sì rìn nínú gbogbo ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ tí baba rẹ̀ ti dá ṣáájú rẹ̀; ọkàn rẹ̀ kò sì pé pẹ̀lú Olúwa Ọlọ́run rẹ̀, gẹ́gẹ́ bí ọkàn Dafidi baba ńlá rẹ̀ ti ṣe.
4 Even so, for David's sake, the Lord his God let his descendants to continue to rule like a lamp, a son to rule after him and to make Jerusalem strong.
Ṣùgbọ́n, nítorí i Dafidi Olúwa Ọlọ́run rẹ̀ fún un ní ìmọ́lẹ̀ kan ní Jerusalẹmu nípa gbígbé ọmọ rẹ̀ ró láti jẹ ọba ní ipò rẹ̀ àti láti fi ìdí Jerusalẹmu múlẹ̀.
5 For David had done what was right in the Lord's sight, and had not deviated from anything the Lord commanded throughout his lifetime, except in the case of Uriah the Hittite.
Nítorí tí Dafidi ṣe èyí tí ó dára ní ojú Olúwa, tí kò sì kùnà láti pa gbogbo èyí tí Olúwa pàṣẹ fún un mọ́ ní ọjọ́ ayé rẹ̀ gbogbo; bí kò ṣe ní kìkì ọ̀ràn Uriah ará Hiti.
6 (Rehoboam and Jeroboam were always at war with each other.)
Ogun sì wà láàrín Rehoboamu àti Jeroboamu ní gbogbo ọjọ́ ayé Abijah.
7 The rest of what happened in Abijam's reign and everything that he did are recorded in the Book of Chronicles of the Kings of Judah. Abijam and Jeroboam were always at war with each other.
Ní ti ìyókù ìṣe Abijah, àti gbogbo èyí tí ó ṣe, a kò ha kọ wọ́n sínú ìwé ọ̀rọ̀ ọjọ́ àwọn ọba Juda? Ogun sì wà láàrín Abijah àti Jeroboamu.
8 Abijam died and was buried the City of David. His son Asa succeeded him as king.
Abijah sì sùn pẹ̀lú àwọn baba rẹ̀, a sì sin ín ní ìlú Dafidi. Asa ọmọ rẹ̀ sì jẹ ọba ní ipò rẹ̀.
9 Asa became king of Judah in the twentieth year of the reign of Jeroboam, king of Israel.
Ní ogún ọdún Jeroboamu ọba Israẹli, Asa jẹ ọba lórí Juda,
10 He reigned in Jerusalem forty-one years. His grandmother's name was Maakah, daughter of Abishalom.
Ó sì jẹ ọba ní Jerusalẹmu ní ọdún mọ́kànlélógójì. Orúkọ ìyá ńlá rẹ̀ sì ni Maaka, ọmọbìnrin Absalomu.
11 Asa did what was right in the Lord's sight, as his forefather David had done.
Asa sì ṣe èyí tí ó dára lójú Olúwa, bí Dafidi baba rẹ̀ ti ṣe.
12 He expelled the cult prostitutes from the land and got rid of all of the idols that his forefathers had made.
Ó sì mú àwọn ọkùnrin alágbèrè ojúbọ òrìṣà kúrò ní ilẹ̀ náà, ó sì kó gbogbo ère tí àwọn baba rẹ̀ ti ṣe kúrò.
13 He even dismissed his grandmother Maacah as queen mother, because she had made a disgusting idol. Asa had the idol chopped down and burned in the Kidron Valley.
Ó sì mú Maaka ìyá ńlá rẹ̀ kúrò láti máa ṣe ayaba, nítorí tí ó yá ère kan fún Aṣerah òrìṣà rẹ̀. Asa sì ké ère náà lulẹ̀, ó sì jó o ní àfonífojì Kidironi.
14 Though the high places were not removed, Asa was completely committed to the Lord all his life.
Ṣùgbọ́n kò mú àwọn ibi gíga kúrò, síbẹ̀ ọkàn Asa pé pẹ̀lú Olúwa ní ọjọ́ ayé rẹ̀ gbogbo.
15 He brought into the house of the Lord the silver and gold and the other items that he and his father had dedicated.
Ó sì mú wúrà àti fàdákà àti àwọn ohun èlò tí òun àti baba rẹ̀ ti yà sí mímọ́ wọ ilé Olúwa.
16 Asa and Baasha, king of Israel, were always at war with each other.
Ogun sì wà láàrín Asa àti Baaṣa ọba Israẹli ní gbogbo ọjọ́ ayé wọn.
17 Baasha, king of Israel, attacked Judah and fortified Ramah to stop people coming from or going to Asa, king of Judah.
Baaṣa, ọba Israẹli sì gòkè lọ sí Juda, ó sì kọ́ Rama láti má jẹ́ kí ẹnikẹ́ni jáde tàbí wọlé tọ Asa ọba lọ.
18 So Asa took all the silver and gold that was left in the treasuries of the Lord's Temple and of the royal palace. He handed it over to his servants and sent them to Ben-hadad, son of Tabrimmon, the son of Hezion, king of Aram, who lived in Damascus, along with this message:
Nígbà náà ni Asa mú gbogbo fàdákà àti wúrà tí ó kù nínú ìṣúra ilé Olúwa àti ìṣúra ilé ọba. Ó sì fi lé àwọn ìránṣẹ́ rẹ̀ lọ́wọ́, ó sì rán wọn lọ sí ọ̀dọ̀ Beni-Hadadi ọmọ Tabrimoni, ọmọ Hesioni ọba Siria tí ó ń gbé ní Damasku.
19 “Let us make a treaty between us, just as there was between my father and your father. Look, I've sent you a gift of silver and gold. Go and break your treaty with Baasha, king of Israel, so that he will retreat and leave me alone.”
Ó sì wí pé, “Jẹ́ kí májẹ̀mú kí ó wà láàrín èmi àti ìwọ, bí ó sì ti wà láàrín baba mi àti baba rẹ. Wò ó, Èmi rán ọrẹ fàdákà àti wúrà sí ọ. Ǹjẹ́ nísinsin yìí, da májẹ̀mú rẹ pẹ̀lú Baaṣa, ọba Israẹli, kí ó lè lọ kúrò lọ́dọ̀ mi.”
20 Ben-hadad accepted Asa's proposal and sent his army with its commanders to attack the towns of Israel. They captured the towns of Ijon, Dan, Abel-beth-maacah, and all Kinnereth, including all the land of Naphtali.
Beni-Hadadi gba ti Asa ọba, ó sì rán àwọn alágbára olórí ogun rẹ̀ sí àwọn ìlú Israẹli. Ó sì ṣẹ́gun Ijoni, Dani àti Abeli-Beti-Maaka, àti gbogbo Kinnereti pẹ̀lú gbogbo ilẹ̀ Naftali.
21 When Baasha heard about this, he stopped fortifying Ramah and retreated to Tirzah.
Nígbà tí Baaṣa sì gbọ́ èyí, ó sì ṣíwọ́ kíkọ́ Rama, ó sì lọ kúrò sí Tirsa.
22 Then King Asa issued a proclamation throughout all Judah, with no exception. The people obeyed, and carried away the stones and the timbers Baasha had used for building up Ramah. King Asa used these building materials to strengthen Geba of Benjamin, as well as Mizpah.
Nígbà náà ni Asa ọba kéde ká gbogbo Juda, kò dá ẹnìkan sí, wọ́n sì kó òkúta Rama kúrò àti igi rẹ̀, tí Baaṣa fi kọ́lé. Asa ọba sì fi wọ́n kọ́ Geba ti Benjamini àti Mispa.
23 The rest of what happened in Asa's reign, all his achievements, everything that he did, and the towns he built, are recorded in the Book of Chronicles of the Kings of Judah. But when he grew old he had disease in his feet.
Ní ti ìyókù gbogbo ìṣe Asa, àti gbogbo agbára rẹ̀, àti gbogbo ohun tí ó ṣe, àti àwọn ìlú tí ó kọ́, a kò ha kọ wọ́n sínú ìwé ọ̀rọ̀ ọjọ́ àwọn ọba Juda? Ṣùgbọ́n, ní ìgbà ogbó rẹ̀, ààrùn ṣe é ní ẹsẹ̀ rẹ̀.
24 Asa died and was buried with his ancestors in the City of David. His son Jehoshaphat succeeded him as king.
Asa sì sùn pẹ̀lú àwọn baba rẹ̀, a sì sin ín pẹ̀lú àwọn baba rẹ̀ ní ìlú Dafidi baba rẹ̀. Jehoṣafati ọmọ rẹ̀ sì jẹ ọba ní ipò rẹ̀.
25 Nadab, son of Jeroboam became king of Israel in the second year of the reign of King Asa of Judah. He reigned in Israel for two years.
Nadabu ọmọ Jeroboamu sì jẹ ọba lórí Israẹli ní ọdún kejì Asa ọba Juda, ó sì jẹ ọba lórí Israẹli ní ọdún méjì.
26 He did what was evil in the Lord's sight. He followed the ways of his father and committed the same sins his father had made Israel commit.
Ó sì ṣe búburú níwájú Olúwa, ó sì rìn ní ọ̀nà baba rẹ̀ àti nínú ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ rẹ̀, èyí tí ó mú Israẹli dá.
27 Baasha, son of Ahijah of the tribe of Issachar, plotted a rebellion against him. Baasha murdered Nadab at the Philistine town of Gibbethon while Nadab and the whole Israelite army were besieging it.
Baaṣa ọmọ Ahijah ti ilé Isakari sì dìtẹ̀ sí i, Baaṣa sì kọlù ú ní Gibetoni, ìlú àwọn ará Filistini, nígbà tí Nadabu àti gbogbo Israẹli dó ti Gibetoni.
28 Baasha killed Nadab and took over as king in the third year of the reign of King Asa of Judah.
Baaṣa sì pa Nadabu ní ọdún kẹta Asa ọba Juda, ó sì jẹ ọba ní ipò rẹ̀.
29 As soon as he became king he killed all the rest of Jeroboam's family. He did not leave any of Jeroboam's descendants alive—he destroyed them all, as the Lord had said through his servant Ahijah the Shilonite.
Ó sì ṣe, bí ó sì ti bẹ̀rẹ̀ sí ní jẹ ọba ó pa gbogbo ilé Jeroboamu, kò sì ku ẹnìkan tí ń mí fún Jeroboamu, ṣùgbọ́n ó run gbogbo wọn, gẹ́gẹ́ bí ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa, tí ó sọ nípa ọwọ́ ìránṣẹ́ rẹ̀ Ahijah ará Ṣilo.
30 This happened because of the sins Jeroboam had committed and had made Israel commit, and because he had made the Lord, the God of Israel, angry.
Nítorí ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ tí Jeroboamu ti ṣẹ̀ àti tí ó mú Israẹli ṣẹ̀, àti nítorí tí ó ti mú Olúwa Ọlọ́run Israẹli bínú.
31 The rest of what happened in Nadab's reign and everything that he did are recorded in the Book of Chronicles of the Kings of Israel.
Ní ti ìyókù ìṣe Nadabu àti gbogbo ohun tí ó ṣe, a kò ha kọ wọ́n sínú ìwé ọ̀rọ̀ ọjọ́ àwọn ọba Israẹli?
32 Asa and Baasha, king of Israel, were always at war with each other.
Ogun sì wà láàrín Asa àti Baaṣa ọba Israẹli ní gbogbo ọjọ́ wọn.
33 Baasha, son of Ahijah, became king over all of Israel in the third year of the reign of King Asa in Judah. Baasha reigned in Tirzah for twenty-four years.
Ní ọdún kẹta Asa ọba Juda, Baaṣa ọmọ Ahijah sì jẹ ọba lórí gbogbo Israẹli ní Tirsa, ó sì jẹ ọba ní ọdún mẹ́rìnlélógún.
34 Baasha did what was evil in the Lord's sight and followed the way of Jeroboam and his sin, which he had made Israel commit.
Ó sì ṣe búburú níwájú Olúwa, ó sì rìn ní ọ̀nà Jeroboamu àti nínú ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ rẹ̀, èyí tí ó ti mú Israẹli ṣẹ̀.
