2 Chronicles 21
1 Iehosphaphat then slept with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers in the citie of Dauid: and Iehoram his sonne reigned in his steade.
Yehosafati anamwalira nayikidwa mʼmanda pamodzi ndi makolo ake mu mzinda wa Davide. Ndipo Yehoramu mwana wake analowa ufumu mʼmalo mwake.
2 And he had brethren the sonnes of Iehoshaphat, Azariah, and Iehiel, and Zechariah, and Azariah, and Michael, and Shephatiah. All these were the sonnes of Iehoshaphat King of Israel.
Abale ake a Yehoramu, ana aamuna a Yehosafati, anali Azariya, Yehieli, Zekariya, Azariyahu, Mikayeli ndi Sefatiya. Onsewa anali ana a Yehosafati mfumu ya Israeli.
3 And their father gaue them great giftes of siluer and of golde, and of precious things, with strong cities in Iudah, but the kingdome gaue he to Iehoram: for he was the eldest.
Abambo awo anawapatsa mphatso zambiri za siliva, golide ndi zinthu zina zamtengowapatali komanso mizinda yotetezedwa ya Yuda. Koma iye anapereka ufumu kwa Yehoramu chifukwa anali mwana wake woyamba kubadwa.
4 And Iehoram rose vp vpon the kingdom of his father, and made himselfe strong, and slew all his brethren with the sworde, and also of the princes of Israel.
Yehoramu atakhazikika pa ufumu wa abambo ake, iye anapha abale ake ndi lupanga pamodzi ndi atsogoleri ena a Israeli.
5 Iehoram was two and thirtie yeere olde, when he began to reigne, and he reigned eyght yeere in Ierusalem.
Yehoramu anali wa zaka 32 pamene anakhala mfumu, ndipo analamulira mu Yerusalemu zaka zisanu ndi zitatu.
6 And he walked in the way of the Kings of Israel, as the house of Ahab had done: for he had the daughter of Ahab to wife, and he wrought euill in the eyes of the Lord.
Iye anayenda mʼnjira za mafumu a Israeli, monga mmene linachitira banja la Ahabu, pakuti anakwatira mwana wa Ahabu. Ndipo anachita zoyipa pamaso pa Yehova.
7 Howbeit the Lord would not destroy the house of Dauid, because of the couenant that he had made with Dauid, and because he had promised to giue a light to him, and to his sonnes for euer.
Komabe, chifukwa cha pangano limene Yehova anachita ndi Davide, Yehova sanafune kuwononga banja la Davide. Iye analonjeza kusungira nyale Davide ndi zidzukulu zake mpaka muyaya.
8 In his dayes Edom rebelled from vnder the hand of Iudah, and made a King ouer them.
Pa nthawi ya Yehoramu, Edomu anawukira Yuda ndipo anadzisankhira mfumu.
9 And Iehoram went forth with his princes, and all his charets with him: and hee rose vp by night, and smote Edom, which had compassed him in, and the captaines of the charets.
Choncho Yehoramu anapita kumeneko pamodzi ndi atsogoleri ake ndi magaleta ake onse. Aedomu anamuzungulira pamodzi ndi atsogoleri ake koma iye ananyamuka ndi kuthawa usiku.
10 But Edom rebelled from vnder the hande of Iudah vnto this day. then did Libnah rebell at the same time from vnder his hand, because he had forsaken the Lord God of his fathers.
Mpaka lero lino Edomu ndi wowukira ulamuliro wa Yuda. Pa nthawi yomweyi, mzinda wa Libina unawukiranso chifukwa Yehoramu anasiya Yehova, Mulungu wa makolo ake.
11 Moreouer hee made hie places in the mountaines of Iudah, and caused the inhabitants of Ierusalem to commit fornication, and compelled Iudah thereto.
Iye anamanganso malo opembedzerapo mafano mʼmapiri a Yuda ndipo anachititsa anthu a mu Yerusalemu kukhala osakhulupirika. Choncho anasocheretsa anthu a ku Yuda.
12 And there came a writing to him from Elijah the Prophet, saying, Thus sayth the Lord God of Dauid thy father, Because thou hast not walked in the wayes of Iehoshaphat thy father, nor in the wayes of Asa King of Iudah,
Yehoramu analandira kalata yochokera kwa mneneri Eliya yonena kuti, “Yehova Mulungu wa Davide abambo ako akuti, ‘Iwe sunayende mʼnjira ya Yehosafati abambo ako kapena Asa mfumu ya Yuda.
13 But hast walked in the way of the kings of Israel, and hast made Iudah and the inhabitantes of Ierusalem to go a whoring, as the house of Ahab went a whoring, and hast also slaine thy brethre of thy fathers house, which were better then thou,
Koma wayenda mʼnjira za mafumu a Israeli ndipo watsogolera anthu a ku Yuda ndi Yerusalemu kukhala osakhulupirika, monga linachitira banja la Ahabu. Waphanso abale ako, abale a banja la abambo ako, anthu amene anali abwino kuposa iweyo.
14 Beholde, with a great plague will the Lord smite thy people, and thy children, and thy wiues, and all thy substance,
Kotero tsono Yehova ali pafupi kukantha anthu ako, ana ako, akazi ako ndi zinthu zako zonse, ndi chilango chachikulu.
15 And thou shalt be in great diseases in the disease of thy bowels, vntill thy bowels fall out for the disease, day by day.
Ndipo iwe udzadwala nthenda yoopsa yamʼmimba, mpaka nthendayo idzachititsa matumbo ako kutuluka.’”
16 So the Lord stirred vp against Iehoram the spirite of the Philistims, and the Arabians that were beside the Ethiopians.
Yehova anamuutsira Yehoramuyo mkwiyo wa Afilisti ndi Aarabu amene amakhala pafupi ndi Akusi.
17 And they came vp into Iudah, and brake into it, and caryed away all the substance that was found in the Kings house, and his sonnes also, and his wiues, so that there was not a sonne left him, saue Iehoahaz, the yongest of his sonnes.
Iwo anathira nkhondo Yuda. Analowanso ndi kutenga katundu yense amene anamupeza mʼnyumba ya mfumu pamodzi ndi ana ake ndi akazi ake. Palibe mwana amene anatsala kupatula mwana wake wamngʼono kwambiri, Ahaziya.
18 And after all this, the Lord smote him in his bowels with an incurable disease.
Izi zonse zitachitika, Yehova anakantha Yehoramu ndi nthenda yamʼmimba imene inali yosachiritsika.
19 And in processe of time, euen after the end of two yeeres, his guttes fell out with his disease: so he dyed of sore diseases: and his people made no burning for him like the burning of his fathers.
Patapita nthawi, kumapeto kwa chaka chachiwiri, matumbo ake anatuluka chifukwa cha nthendayo, ndipo anafa imfa yopweteka kwambiri. Anthu ake sanasonkhe moto kumuchitira ulemu, monga anachitira ndi makolo ake.
20 When he began to reigne, he was two and thirtie yeere olde, and reigned in Ierusalem eight yeere, and liued without being desired: yet they buryed him in the citie of Dauid, but not among the sepulchres of the Kings.
Yehoramu anali wa zaka 32 pamene anakhala mfumu. Iyeyo analamulira mu Yerusalemu zaka zisanu ndi zitatu. Ndipo anamwalira popanda odandawula, nayikidwa mʼmanda mu mzinda wa Davide, koma osati mʼmanda a mafumu.
