2 Chronicles 26
1 Then all the people of Iudah tooke Vzziah, which was sixteene yeere olde, and made him King in the steade of his father Amaziah.
Yuda manfo de Amasia babarima Usia a na wadi mfe dunsia tenaa ahengua so sɛ wɔn hene foforo.
2 He buylt Eloth, and restored it to Iudah after that the King slept with his fathers.
Usia agya wu akyi no, ɔsan kyekyeree Elot kurow no, na ɔdan maa Yuda.
3 Sixteene yeere olde was Vzziah, when he began to reigne, and he reigned two and fiftie yere in Ierusalem, and his mothers name was Iecoliah of Ierusalem.
Usia dii ade no, na wadi mfirihyia dunsia, na odii hene wɔ Yerusalem mfirihyia aduonum abien. Na ne na a ofi Yerusalem no din de Yeholia.
4 And hee did vprightly in the sight of the Lord, according to al that his father Amaziah did.
Na ɔteɛ wɔ Awurade ani so, sɛnea nʼagya Amasia teɛ no.
5 And he sought God in the dayes of Zechariah (which vnderstoode the visions of God) and when as he sought the Lord, God made him to prosper.
Sakaria bere so no, Usia hwehwɛɛ Onyankopɔn akyi kwan, efisɛ ɔkaa Onyankopɔn suro ho nsɛm kyerɛɛ no. Na esiane sɛ ɔhene no hwehwɛɛ Onyankopɔn akyi kwan no nti, Onyankopɔn maa no nkɔso.
6 For he went forth and fought against the Philistims and brake downe the wall of Gath, and the wall of Iabneh, and the wall of Ashdod, and built cities in Ashdod, and among the Philistims.
Otuu Filistifo so sa, na obubuu Gat, Yabne ne Asdod afasu. Na ɔkyekyeree nkurow afoforo wɔ Asdod fam ne mmeaemmeae bi a ɛwɔ Filistia.
7 And God helped him against ye Philistims, and against the Arabians that dwelt in Gur-baal and Hammeunim.
Ɛnyɛ ɔko a ɔne Filistifo koe no mu nko ara na Onyankopɔn boaa no, na mmom ɔko a ɔne Arabfo a wɔwɔ Gur Baal koe ne Meunifo ko mu nso, ɔboaa no.
8 And the Ammonites gaue gifts to Vzziah, and his name spred to the entring in of Egypt: for he did most valiantly.
Meunifo no tuaa sonkahiri maa no, na ne din hyeta koduu Misraim, efisɛ na ɔwɔ tumi a ɛso.
9 Moreouer Uzziah buylt towres in Ierusalem at the corner gate, and at the valley gate, and at the turning, and made them strong.
Usia sisii ɔwɛn abantenten wɔ Yerusalem wɔ Twɔtwɔw Pon ano, Obon Pon ano ne ɔfasu no ntwea mu no.
10 And he built towres in the wildernesse, and digged many cisternes: for he had much cattell both in the valleyes and playnes, plowmen, and dressers of vines in the mountaines, and in Carmel: for he loued husbandrie.
Ɔsan sisii abankɛse wɔ sare so, tutuu mmura bebree, efisɛ na ɔyɛn mmoa pii wɔ Yuda bepɔw ase hɔ. Na ɔyɛ ɔbarima a nʼani gye kua ho. Na ɔwɔ adwumayɛfo bebree a wɔhwɛ ne mfuw ne ne bobeturo a ɛwɔ mmepɔw no nsian mu ne obon nsasebere no so.
11 Vzziah had also an hoste of fighting men that went out to warre by bandes, according to the count of their nomber vnder the hande of Ieiel the Scribe, and Maaseiah the ruler, and vnder the hand of Hananiah, one of the Kings captaines.
Na Usia wɔ asraafo a wɔyɛ akofo akɛse a wɔwɔ akodi mu ntetewee. Na wɔyɛ akuw akuw a wɔasiesie wɔn ho ama ɔko. Na Yeiel a ɔyɛ asraafodɔm no kyerɛwfo, ne ne boafo Maaseia na wɔboaboa akofo kuw kɛse yi ano. Na wɔhyɛ Hanania a ɔyɛ ɔhene no mpanyimfo no mu baako ase.
12 The whole nomber of the chiefe of the families of the valiant men were two thousande and sixe hundreth.
Mmusua ntuanofo mpenu ahansia na na wɔma saa akofo abenfo yi akwankyerɛ.
13 And vnder their hande was the armie for warre, three hundreth and seuen thousand, and fiue hundreth that fought valiantly to helpe the King against the enemie.
Na asraafodɔm no dodow yɛ mpem ahaasa ne ason, ahannum a wɔn nyinaa nim de. Na wɔada wɔn ho so sɛ wɔbɛboa ɔhene no ako atia ɔtamfo biara.
14 And Vzziah prepared them throughout all the hoste, shieldes, and speares, and helmets, and brigandines, and bowes, and stones to sling.
Usia maa asraafodɔm no nyinaa nkatabo, mpeaw, nnadekyɛw, agyiraehyɛde, bɛmma ne ahwimmo abo.
15 He made also very artificial engins in Ierusalem, to be vpon the towres and vpon the corners, to shoote arrowes and great stones: and his name spred farre abroade, because God did helpe him marueilously, till he was mightie.
Afei, abenfo bi yɛɛ mfi de sisii Yerusalem afasu no so a ɛtow agyan ne abo fi abantenten no so ne fasu twɔtwɔw so. Nʼanuonyam hyetae, efisɛ Awurade boaa no yiye kosii sɛ onyaa tumi kɛse.
16 But when he was strong, his heart was lift vp to his destruction: for he transgressed against the Lord his God, and went into the Temple of the Lord to burne incense vpon the altar of incense.
Nanso onyaa tumi kɛse no, ɔyɛɛ ahantan a ɛnam so ma ɔhwee ase. Ɔyɛɛ bɔne tiaa Awurade ne Nyankopɔn, efisɛ ɔkɔɔ Awurade Asɔredan kronkronbea hɔ, kɔhyew nnuhuam wɔ afɔremuka no so.
17 And Azariah the Priest went in after him, and with him foure score Priests of the Lord, valiant men.
Ɔsɔfopanyin Asaria ne Awurade asɔfo foforo aduɔwɔtwe, akokodurufo kɔhwehwɛɛ no.
18 And they withstoode Vzziah the King, and said vnto him, It perteineth not to thee, Vzziah, to burne incense vnto the Lord, but to the Priests the sonnes of Aaron, that are consecrated for to offer incense: goe forth of the Sanctuarie: for thou hast transgressed, and thou shalt haue none honour of the Lord God.
Wɔka sii ɔhene Usia anim se, “Ɛnyɛ wo Usia na ɛsɛ sɛ wohyew nnuhuam ma Awurade. Ɛyɛ asɔfo nko ara, Aaron mmabarima a, wɔayi wɔn asi hɔ ama saa dwumadi no nko ara adwuma. Fi kronkronbea ha kɔ, efisɛ woayɛ bɔne. Onyankopɔn renhyɛ wo anuonyam wɔ eyi ho.”
19 Then Vzziah was wroth, and had incense in his hand to burne it: and while he was wroth with the Priestes, the leprosie rose vp in his forehead before the Priestes in the house of the Lord beside the incense altar.
Usia bo fuw yiye, na wamfa nnuhuamhyew kuruwa a na okura no ansi fam. Ɔne asɔfo no gyina nnuhuam afɔremuka no anim wɔ Awurade Asɔredan no mu no, prɛko pɛ, kwata totɔɔ ne moma so.
20 And when Azariah the chiefe Priest with al the Priestes looked vpon him, behold, he was leprous in his forehead, and they caused him hastily to depart thence: and he was euen compelled to go out, because the Lord had smitten him.
Bere a Asaria ne asɔfo a wɔaka no huu kwata no, wopiapiaa no fii hɔ. Na ɔhene no ankasa pɛɛ sɛ ofi hɔ ntɛm, efisɛ Awurade na na wabɔ no.
21 And Vzziah the king was a leper vnto the day of his death, and dwelt as a leper in an house apart, because he was cut off from the house of ye Lord: and Iotham his sonne ruled ouer the Kings house, and iudged the people of the land.
Enti kwata yɛɛ ɔhene Usia kosii sɛ owui. Wɔpam no fi nnipa mu maa ɔno nko ara tenae a wankɔ Awurade Asɔredan mu. Wɔde ne babarima Yotam tenaa ahemfi hɔ ma odii nnipa a wɔwɔ asase no so no so.
22 Concerning the rest of the acts of Vzziah, first and last, did Isaiah the Prophet the sonne of Amoz write.
Amos babarima Yesaia akyerɛw Usia ahenni ho nsɛm nkae fi mfiase kosi awiei ato hɔ.
23 So Vzziah slept with his fathers, and they buryed him with his fathers in the fielde of the burial, which perteined to the kings: for they said, He is a leper. And Iotham his sonne reigned in his steade.
Usia wui, na esiane sɛ kwata yɛɛ no nti, wosiee no bɛn ahemfo amusiei. Na ne babarima Yotam na odii nʼade sɛ ɔhene.
