2 Kings 15
1 Azariah, son of Amaziah, became king of Judah in the twenty-seventh year of the reign of Jeroboam, king of Israel.
Na rĩrĩ, mwaka-inĩ wa mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ na mũgwanja wa ũthamaki wa Jeroboamu mũthamaki wa Isiraeli, Azaria mũrũ wa Amazia mũthamaki wa Juda, akĩambĩrĩria gũthamaka.
2 He was sixteen years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem for fifty-two years. His mother's name was Jecoliah of Jerusalem.
Nake aarĩ na ũkũrũ wa mĩaka ikũmi na ĩtandatũ rĩrĩa aatuĩkire mũthamaki, nake agĩthamaka arĩ Jerusalemu mĩaka mĩrongo ĩtano na ĩĩrĩ. Nyina eetagwo Jekolia, na oimĩte Jerusalemu.
3 He did what was right in the Lord's sight, just as his father Amaziah had done.
Nake nĩekire maũndũ marĩa maarĩ magĩrĩru maitho-inĩ ma Jehova, o ta ũrĩa ithe Amazia eekĩte.
4 But the high places were not removed. The people still were sacrificing and presenting burnt offerings in those places.
No rĩrĩ, kũndũ kũrĩa gũtũũgĩru gũtieheririo; andũ maathiire o na mbere kũrutĩra magongona o na gũcinĩra ũbumba kuo.
5 The Lord touched the king and he had leprosy until the day he died. He lived in isolation in a separate house. His son Jotham was in charge of the palace and was the country's actual ruler.
Jehova nĩahũũrire mũthamaki na mangũ o nginya mũthenya ũrĩa aakuire, na aatũũrire nyũmba arĩ wiki. Jothamu mũrũ wa mũthamaki akĩrũgamĩrĩra nyũmba ya ũthamaki, na agaathaga andũ a bũrũri ũcio.
6 The rest of what happened in Azariah's reign and all he did are recorded in the Book of Chronicles of the Kings of Judah.
Ha ũhoro wa maũndũ marĩa mangĩ makoniĩ wathani wa Azaria, na ũrĩa wothe eekire, githĩ matiandĩkĩtwo ibuku-inĩ rĩa mahinda ma athamaki a Juda?
7 Azariah died and was buried with his fore fathers in the City of David. His son Jotham succeeded him as king.
Azaria akĩhurũka hamwe na maithe make, na agĩthikwo hakuhĩ nao itũũra-inĩ inene rĩa Daudi. Nake mũriũ Jothamu agĩtuĩka mũthamaki ithenya rĩake.
8 Zechariah, son of Jeroboam, became king of Israel in the thirty-eighth year of the reign of Azariah, king of Judah. He reigned in Samaria for six months.
Na rĩrĩ, mwaka-inĩ wa mĩrongo ĩtatũ na ĩnana wa Azaria mũthamaki wa Juda, Zekaria mũrũ wa Jeroboamu agĩtuĩka mũthamaki wa Isiraeli kũu Samaria, nake agĩthamaka mĩeri ĩtandatũ.
9 He did what was evil in the Lord's sight, as his forefathers had done. He did not end the sins that Jeroboam, son of Nebat, had made Israel commit.
Nake agĩĩka maũndũ mooru maitho-inĩ ma Jehova, o ta ũrĩa maithe make meekĩte. Ndaigana gũtiga mehia ma Jeroboamu mũrũ wa Nebati marĩa aatũmĩte Isiraeli mehie.
10 Then Shallum, son of Jabesh, plotted against Zechariah. He attacked him, murdering him in front of the people, and took over as king.
Shalumu mũrũ wa Jabeshi nĩaciirĩire gũũkĩrĩra Zekaria. Akĩmũtharĩkĩra mbere ya andũ, akĩmũũraga, nake agĩtuĩka mũthamaki ithenya rĩake.
11 The rest of the events of Zechariah's reign are recorded in the Book of Chronicles of the Kings of Israel.
Maũndũ marĩa mangĩ makoniĩ wathani wa Zekaria, mandĩkĩtwo ibuku-inĩ rĩa mahinda ma athamaki a Isiraeli.
12 In this way what the Lord told Jehu came true: “Your descendants will sit on the throne of Israel to the fourth generation.”
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio kiugo kĩa Jehova kĩrĩa kĩarĩirio Jehu nĩkĩahingire, kĩrĩa kĩoigĩte atĩrĩ: “Njiaro ciaku nĩigaikarĩra gĩtĩ kĩa ũnene wa Isiraeli nginya rũciaro rwa kana.”
13 Shallum, son of Jabesh, became king in the thirty-ninth year of the reign of King Uzziah of Judah. He reigned in Samaria for one month.
Na rĩrĩ, Shalumu mũrũ wa Jabeshi aatuĩkire mũthamaki mwaka-inĩ wa mĩrongo ĩtatũ na kenda wa ũthamaki wa Uzia mũthamaki wa Juda, nake agĩthamaka mweri ũmwe kũu Samaria.
14 Then Menahem, son of Gadi, went from Tirzah to Samaria, attacked and murdered Shallum, son of Jabesh, and took over as king.
Menahemu mũrũ wa Gadi akiuma Tiriza, agĩthiĩ Samaria. Agĩtharĩkĩra Shalumu mũrũ wa Jabeshi kũu Samaria, akĩmũũraga, na agĩtuĩka mũthamaki ithenya rĩake.
15 The rest of the events of Shallum's reign and the rebellion he plotted are recorded in the Book of Chronicles of the Kings of Israel.
Maũndũ marĩa mangĩ makoniĩ wathani wa Shalumu, na ndundu ya gũũkanĩrĩra ĩrĩa aatongoretie, mandĩkĩtwo ibuku-inĩ rĩa mahinda ma athamaki a Isiraeli.
16 At that time Menahem, starting from Tirzah, attacked Tiphsah and the region nearby, because they would not surrender the town to him. So he destroyed Tiphsah and ripped open all the pregnant women.
Hĩndĩ ĩyo Menahemu, arutĩtie Tiriza agĩtharĩkĩra Tifisa, na akĩũraga mũndũ wothe warĩ itũũra, rĩu inene thĩinĩ o na arĩa maarĩ hakuhĩ narĩo, tondũ nĩmaregire kũhingũra ihingo ciao. Akĩhũũra Tifisa, na agĩtarũra nda cia andũ-a-nja arĩa maarĩ na nda.
17 Menahem, son of Gadi, became king of Israel in the thirty-ninth year of the reign of King Azariah of Judah. He reigned in Samaria for ten years.
Mwaka-inĩ wa mĩrongo ĩtatũ na kenda wa Azaria mũthamaki wa Juda, Menahemu mũrũ wa Gadi agĩtuĩka mũthamaki wa Isiraeli, na agĩthamaka Samaria mĩaka ikũmi.
18 Throughout his reign he did what was evil in the Lord's sight. He did not end the sins that Jeroboam, son of Nebat, had made Israel commit.
Nake agĩĩka maũndũ mooru maitho-inĩ ma Jehova. Hĩndĩ ya wathani wake wothe, ndaigana gũtigana na mehia ma Jeroboamu mũrũ wa Nebati, marĩa aatũmĩte Isiraeli meehie.
19 Pul, king of Assyria, invaded the country. Menahem paid Pul a thousand talents of silver to support Menahem in consolidating his power over the kingdom.
Hĩndĩ ĩyo Puli mũthamaki wa Ashuri agĩtharĩkĩra bũrũri ũcio, nake Menahemu akĩmũhe taranda ngiri ĩmwe cia betha nĩguo amũteithĩrĩrie kũrũmia ũthamaki wake wega.
20 Menahem demanded payment from all the wealthy men of Israel, fifty shekels of silver each, to give to the king of Assyria. So the king of Assyria retreated and did not stay in the country.
Menahemu agĩĩtia mbeeca icio na hinya kuuma kũrĩ andũ a Isiraeli. Mũndũ o wothe gĩtonga aarĩ arute cekeri mĩrongo ĩtano cia betha, nĩguo iheo mũthamaki wa Ashuri. Nĩ ũndũ ũcio mũthamaki wa Ashuri akĩehera, na ndaikarire bũrũri ũcio rĩngĩ.
21 The rest of what happened in Menahem's reign and all he did are recorded in the Book of Chronicles of the Kings of Israel.
Ha ũhoro wa maũndũ marĩa mangĩ makoniĩ wathani wa Menahemu, na ũrĩa eekire-rĩ, githĩ matiandĩkĩtwo ibuku-inĩ rĩa mahinda ma athamaki a Isiraeli?
22 Menahem died, and his son Pekahiah succeeded him as king.
Menahemu akĩhurũka hamwe na maithe make. Nake mũriũ Pekaia agĩtuĩka mũthamaki ithenya rĩake.
23 Pekahiah, son of Menahem, became king of Israel in Samaria in the fiftieth year of the reign of King Azariah of Judah, and he reigned for two years.
Mwaka-inĩ wa mĩrongo ĩtano wa ũthamaki wa Azaria mũthamaki wa Juda, Pekaia mũrũ wa Menahemu agĩtuĩka mũthamaki wa Isiraeli kũu Samaria, nake agĩthamaka mĩaka ĩĩrĩ.
24 He did what was evil in the Lord's sight. He did not end the sins that Jeroboam, son of Nebat, had made Israel commit.
Pekaia agĩĩka maũndũ mooru maitho-inĩ ma Jehova. Ndaigana gũtiga mehia ma Jeroboamu mũrũ wa Nebati marĩa aatũmĩte Isiraeli meehie.
25 Pekah, son of Remaliah, one of his officers plotted against him together with Argob, Arieh, and fifty men from Gilead. Pekah attacked and killed Pekahiah in the fortress of the king's palace in Samaria, and took over as king.
Ũmwe wa anene ake, Peka mũrũ wa Remalia, agĩciirĩra ndundu ya kũmũũkĩrĩra. Arĩ na andũ mĩrongo ĩtano kuuma Gileadi, agĩthiĩ, akĩũraga Pekaia hamwe na Arigobu na Ariehi, kũu Samaria, kĩirigo-inĩ gĩa kwĩgitĩra kĩa nyũmba ya ũthamaki. Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, Peka akĩũraga Pekaia na agĩtuĩka mũthamaki ithenya rĩake.
26 The rest of what happened in Pekahiah's reign and all he did are recorded in the Book of Chronicles of the Kings of Israel.
Maũndũ marĩa mangĩ makoniĩ wathani wa Pekaia, na ũrĩa wothe eekire-rĩ, mandĩkĩtwo ibuku-inĩ rĩa mahinda ma athamaki a Isiraeli.
27 Pekah, son of Remaliah, became king of Israel in the fifty-second year of the reign of King Azariah of Judah. He reigned in Samaria for twenty years.
Na rĩrĩ, mwaka-inĩ wa mĩrongo ĩtano na ĩĩrĩ wa Azaria mũthamaki wa Juda, Peka mũrũ wa Remalia agĩtuĩka mũthamaki wa Isiraeli kũu Samaria, nake agĩthamaka mĩaka mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ.
28 He did what was evil in the Lord's sight. He did not end the sins that Jeroboam, son of Nebat, had made Israel commit.
Nake agĩĩka maũndũ mooru maitho-inĩ ma Jehova. Ndaigana gũtigana na mehia ma Jeroboamu mũrũ wa Nebati, marĩa aatũmĩte Isiraeli meehie.
29 During the reign of Pekah, king of Israel, Tiglath-pileser, king of Assyria, invaded and captured Ijon, Abel-beth-maacah, Janoah, Kedesh, Hazor, Gilead, Galilee, and all the land of Naphtali, and he took the people to Assyria as prisoners.

30 Then Hoshea, son of Elah, plotted against Pekah, son of Remaliah. In the twentieth year of the reign of Jotham, son of Uzziah, Hoshea attacked Pekah, killed him, and took over as king.
Ningĩ Hoshea mũrũ wa Ela agĩciirĩra ndundu ya gũũkĩrĩra Peka mũrũ wa Remalia. Nake akĩmũtharĩkĩra na akĩmũũraga, agĩcooka agĩtuĩka mũthamaki ithenya rĩake, mwaka-inĩ wa mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ wa ũthamaki wa Jothamu mũrũ wa Uzia.
