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.
Awo Yekosafaati ne yeebakira wamu ne bajjajjaabe, n’aziikibwa mu kibuga kya Dawudi; Yekolaamu mutabani we n’amusikira.
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.
Yekolaamu yalina baganda be, batabani ba Yekosafaati, nga be ba Azaliya, ne Yekyeri, ne Zekkaliya, ne Azaliya, ne Mikayiri ne Sefatiya. Abo bonna bali baana ba Yekosafaati kabaka wa Yuda.
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.
Kitaabwe yabawa eby’obugagga bingi, ebya ffeeza ne zaabu, n’ebintu eby’omuwendo ebirala, wamu n’ebibuga ebiriko bbugwe mu Yuda, naye obwakabaka n’abuwa Yekolaamu kubanga ye yali omuggulanda.
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.
Awo Yekolaamu bwe yamala okwenywereza ddala ku ntebe ye ey’obwakabaka, n’atta baganda be bonna n’ekitala, era n’abakungu abamu aba Isirayiri.
5 Iehoram was two and thirtie yeere olde, when he began to reigne, and he reigned eyght yeere in Ierusalem.
Yekolaamu yalina emyaka amakumi asatu mu ebiri we yafuukira kabaka, era n’afugira emyaka munaana mu Yerusaalemi.
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.
N’atambulira mu makubo ga bakabaka ba Isirayiri, ng’ennyumba ya Akabu bwe yakolanga, era n’okuwasa n’awasa muwala wa Akabu. N’akola eby’ebibi mu maaso ga Mukama.
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.
Newaakubadde ng’ebyo byonna byali bwe bityo, Mukama teyayagala kusaanyaawo nnyumba ya Dawudi, kubanga yali akoze endagaano ne Dawudi, ate ng’asuubizza okukuuma ettabaaza ye n’eya bazzukulu be ng’eyaka emirembe gyonna.
8 In his dayes Edom rebelled from vnder the hand of Iudah, and made a King ouer them.
Mu biro bya Yekolaamu Edomu n’ajeemera okufuga kwa Yuda ne beeteekerawo kabaka owaabwe.
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.
Awo Yekolaamu n’agendayo n’abakungu be n’amagaali ge gonna. Abayedomu ne bamutaayiza ye n’abaduumizi ab’amagaali ge mu kiro, naye n’abagolokokerako n’abakuba.
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.
Okuva ku olwo Edomu ne bajeemera Yuda n’okutuusa leero. Mu kiseera ekyo Libuna naye ne n’amujeemera, kubanga Yekolaamu yali avudde ku Mukama Katonda wa bajjajjaabe.
11 Moreouer hee made hie places in the mountaines of Iudah, and caused the inhabitants of Ierusalem to commit fornication, and compelled Iudah thereto.
Yali azimbye n’ebifo ebigulumivu ku nsozi za Yuda, era ng’aleetedde n’abatuuze ba Yerusaalemi obutaba beesigwa, nga ne Yuda bawabye.
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,
Yekolaamu n’afuna ebbaluwa okuva eri Eriya nnabbi ng’egamba nti, “Bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda wa jjajjaawo Dawudi nti, ‘Olw’obutatambulira mu makubo ga kitaawo Yekosafaati, wadde mu makubo ga Asa kabaka wa 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,
naye n’otambulira mu kkubo lya bakabaka ba Isirayiri, n’oleetera Yuda n’abantu b’e Yerusaalemi obutaba beesigwa, ng’ennyumba ya Akabu bwe yakola, era n’otta ne baganda bo ab’ennyumba ya kitaawo, abaali bakusinga empisa,
14 Beholde, with a great plague will the Lord smite thy people, and thy children, and thy wiues, and all thy substance,
Mukama kyaliva aleeta kawumpuli ow’amaanyi, ku bantu bo, n’abaana bo, n’abakyala bo, ne ku bintu byo byonna,
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.
ate naawe olirwala obulwadde obw’amaanyi mu lubuto, erireetera ebyenda byo okuvaayo, buli lunaku.’”
16 So the Lord stirred vp against Iehoram the spirite of the Philistims, and the Arabians that were beside the Ethiopians.
Awo Mukama n’asitusa obusungu bw’Abafirisuuti n’Abawalabu abaabeeranga okumpi n’Abaesiyopiya eri Yekolaamu,
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.
ne balumba Yuda, ne bakiwangula, ne batwala ebintu byonna ebyali mu lubiri lwa kabaka, ne batabani be, ne bakazi be, ne wataba mutabani we n’omu eyalekebwa okuggyako Yekoyakaazi, omuggalanda.
18 And after all this, the Lord smote him in his bowels with an incurable disease.
Oluvannyuma lw’ebyo byonna, Mukama n’aleetako Yekolaamu obulwadde obutawonyezeka obw’omu lubuto.
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.
Awo ebiro bwe byayitawo, nga wayiseewo emyaka ebiri, ebyenda bye ne bitanula okumuvaamu, olw’obulwadde, n’afa mu bulumi bungi. Abantu be ne batamukumira lumbe, nga bwe baali bakoledde bajjajjaabe.
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.
Yekolaamu yali wa myaka amakumi asatu mu ebiri bwe yatandika okuba kabaka, era n’afugira mu Yerusaalemi emyaka munaana. Okufa kwe tekwaleetera muntu n’omu kwejjusa, n’aziikibwa mu kibuga kya Dawudi naye si ku biggya bya bassekabaka.
