< 2 Chronicles 28 >
1 Ahaz was twentie yeere old when he began to reigne, and reigned sixteene yeere in Ierusalem, and did not vprightly in the sight of the Lord, like Dauid his father.
Ehaz gbara iri afọ abụọ mgbe ọ malitere ịbụ eze. Ọ chịkwara afọ iri na isii nʼime Jerusalem, ma o meghị ihe ziri ezi nʼanya Onyenwe anyị, dịka nna ya Devid mere.
2 But he walked in the wayes of ye Kings of Israel, and made euen molten images for Baalim.
Ọ gbasoro ụzọ niile nke ndị eze Izrel, kpụọkwa arụsị dị iche iche maka ofufe arụsị Baal.
3 Moreouer he burnt incense in the valley of Ben-hinnom, and burnt his sonnes with fire, after the abominations of the heathen whom the Lord had cast out before the children of Israel.
O surere ihe nsure ọkụ na-esi isi ụtọ dị iche iche nʼime Ndagwurugwu nke Ben Hinom, surekwaa ụmụ ya nʼọkụ. Ọ gbasoro omenaala niile rụrụ arụ nke ndị mba ọzọ, ndị ahụ Onyenwe anyị chụpụrụ site nʼihu ndị Izrel.
4 He sacrificed also and burnt incense in the hie places, and on hilles, and vnder euery greene tree.
Ọ chụrụ aja surekwaa ihe nsure ọkụ aja na-esi isi ụtọ nʼebe niile dị elu, nʼelu ugwu niile, na nʼokpuru osisi ndụ ọbụla.
5 Wherefore the Lord his God deliuered him into the hand of the King of the Aramites, and they smote him, and tooke of his, many prisoners, and brought them to Damascus: and he was also deliuered into the hande of the King of Israel, which smote him with a great slaughter.
Nʼihi ya, Onyenwe anyị Chineke ya nyefere ya nʼaka eze ndị Aram. Ndị Aram lụgburu ya, kpọrọ ọtụtụ nʼetiti ndị ya dịka ndị mkpọrọ kpọta ha nʼDamaskọs. E nyefekwara ya nʼaka eze Izrel, onye gburu ọtụtụ ndị agha ya.
6 For Pekah the sonne of Remaliah slewe in Iudah sixe score thousand in one day, all valiant men, because they had forsaken the Lord God of their fathers.
Nʼotu ụbọchị, Peka nwa Remalaya gburu narị puku ndị agha Juda na iri puku abụọ. Ihe ndị a mere nʼihi na ha gbakụtara Onyenwe anyị Chineke nna nna ha azụ.
7 And Zichri a mighty man of Ephraim slew Maaseiah the Kings sonne, and Azrikam the gouernour of the house, and Elkanah the second after the King.
Zikri onye Ifrem, onye bụ dike nʼagha, gburu Maaseia, nwa eze, na Azrikam onye na-elekọta ụlọeze. O gbukwara Elkena onye na-esota eze.
8 And the children of Israel tooke prisoners of their brethren, two hudreth thousand of women, sonnes and daughters, and caried away much spoyle of them, and brought the spoyle to Samaria.
Ndị Izrel sitere nʼetiti ụmụnne ha ndị Juda dọta ndị inyom, na ụmụ okorobịa, na ụmụ agbọghọbịa ọnụọgụgụ ha dị narị puku abụọ nʼagha. Ha bukọkwaara ọtụtụ ihe ndị ọzọ ha kwatara nʼagha laghachi na Sameria.
9 But there was a Prophet of the Lordes, (whose name was Oded) and he went out before the hoste that came to Samaria, and said vnto them, Behold, because the Lord God of your fathers is wroth with Iudah, he hath deliuered them into your hand, and ye haue slaine them in a rage, that reacheth vp to heauen.
Ma Oded, onye amụma Onyenwe anyị, nọ na Sameria nʼoge a. Ọ pụrụ jekwuru ndị agha ahụ na Sameria sị ha, “Onyenwe anyị Chineke nna nna unu ha mere ka unu merie ndị Juda nʼihi na ha na-efe arụsị. Ma unu ji ọnụma gbuo ha, nke mere na ụzụ tụrụ ruo nʼeluigwe.
10 And nowe ye purpose to keepe vnder the children of Iudah and Ierusalem, as seruants and handmaides vnto you: but are not you such, that sinnes are with you before the Lord your God?
Ugbu a, unu na-achọkwa ime ndị ikom na ndị inyom Juda na Jerusalem ndị ohu unu? Ma unu abụghị ndị ikpe mmehie mara nʼebe Onyenwe anyị Chineke unu nọ?
11 Nowe therefore heare me, and deliuer the captiues againe, which ye haue taken prisoners of your brethren: for the fierce wrath of the Lord is toward you.
Ugbu a, geenụ ntị nʼihe m na-ekwu. Kpọghachinụ ụmụnna unu ndị a unu dọtara nʼagha nʼụlọ ha, nʼihi na ugbu a Onyenwe anyị na-ewe oke iwe megide unu.”
12 Wherefore certaine of the chiefe of the children of Ephraim, Azariah the sonne of Iehohanan, Berechiah the sonne of Meshillemoth, and Iehizkiah the sonne of Shallum, and Amasa the sonne of Hadlai, stood vp against them that came from the warre,
Ụfọdụ ndịisi ndị Ifrem, bụ Azaraya nwa Jehohanan, na Berekaya nwa Meshilemot, na Jehizkaya nwa Shalum, na Amasa nwa Hadlai, biliri guzogide ndị ahụ si agha na-alọta.
13 And said vnto them, Bring not in the captiues hither: for this shalbe a sinne vpon vs against the Lord: ye entende to adde more to our sinnes and to our trespasse, though our trespasse be great, and the fierce wrath of God is against Israel.
Ha sịrị, “Unu akpọbatakwala ndị a unu dọtara nʼagha nʼebe a, nʼihi na unu mee ya, anyị ga-abụ ndị ikpe maara nʼihu Onyenwe anyị. Unu chọrọ ịtụkwasị ihe na mmehie na ikpe ọmụma anyị? Nʼihi na ikpe ọmụma anyị adịla ukwuu, iwe ya dị ọkụ na-adịkwasịkwa nʼahụ Izrel.”
14 So the armie left the captiues and the spoyle before the princes and all the Congregation.
Ya mere, ndị agha ahụ hapụrụ ndị mkpọrọ ahụ na ihe niile ha bulatara, nʼihu ndị ozi na igwe mmadụ ahụ niile.
15 And the men that were named by name, rose vp and tooke the prisoners, and with the spoyle clothed all that were naked among them, and arayed them, and shod them, and gaue them meate, and gaue them drinke, and anoynted them, and caryed all that were feeble of them vpon asses, and brought them to Iericho the citie of Palme trees to their brethren: so they returned to Samaria.
Mgbe ahụ, ndị ikom ahụ akpọrọ nʼaha nʼaha duuru ndị mkpọrọ ahụ, manye aka nʼihe ahụ niile a dọtara nʼagha wepụta uwe, na nri, na mmanya na akpụkpọụkwụ, na mmanụ, nyeghachi ha ndị ahụ niile a dọtara nʼagha. Ha bulitere ndị ọrịa nọ nʼetiti ndị ahụ a dọtara nʼagha kukwasị ha nʼelu ịnyịnya ibu. Emesịa, ha duuru mmadụ ahụ niile dughachiri ha ndị ha nọ na Jeriko, obodo nkwụ. Emesịakwa, ha laghachikwara azụ na Sameria.
16 At that time did King Ahaz sende vnto the Kings of Asshur, to helpe him.
Nʼoge ahụ, eze Ehaz zigara ndị eze Asịrịa ozi ka ọ bịa nyere ya aka.
17 (For the Edomites came moreouer, and slew of Iudah, and caryed away captiues.
Ndị Edọm bịara ọzọ buso Juda agha, ma dọrọkwa ọtụtụ nʼime ha nʼagha.
18 The Philistims also inuaded the cities in the low countrey, and toward the South of Iudah, and tooke Bethshemesh, and Aialon, and Gederoth and Shocho, with the villages thereof, and Timnah, with her villages, and Gimzo, with her villages, and they dwelt there.
Ndị Filistia na-ebusokwa ụfọdụ obodo Juda dị na mgbada ugwu, na Negeb agha. Ha meriri ma bichikwaa obodo ndị a; Bet-Shemesh, na Aijalon, na Gederọt, na Soko, na Timna, na Gimzo, na obodo nta niile gbara ha gburugburu.
19 For the Lord had humbled Iudah, because of Ahaz King of Israel: for he had brought vengeance vpon Iudah, and had grieuously transgressed against the Lord)
Ma Onyenwe anyị wedara Juda nʼala nʼihi Ehaz, eze Izrel onye mere ka ihe ọjọọ baa ụba na Juda, na-ekwesighị ntụkwasị obi ya nye Onyenwe anyị.
20 And Tilgath Pilneeser king of Asshur came vnto him, who troubled him and did not strengthen him.
Mgbe Tiglat-Pilesa eze ndị Asịrịa bịara, o wetaara Ehaz nsogbu kama enyemaka.
21 For Ahaz tooke a portion out of the house of the Lord and out of the Kings house and of the Princes, and gaue vnto the king of Asshur: yet it helped him not.
Ehaz weere ụfọdụ ihe dị nʼụlọnsọ Onyenwe anyị, na nke dị nʼụlọeze, sitekwa na nʼụlọ ndịisi obodo, were ha nye eze Asịrịa, ma ihe ndị a enyereghị ya aka.
22 And in ye time of his tribulation did he yet trespasse more against ye Lord, (this is King Ahaz)
Nʼoge nsogbu ya, eze Ehaz gakwara nʼihu bụrụ onye na-ekwesighị ntụkwasị obi nye Onyenwe anyị.
23 For he sacrificed vnto the gods of Damascus, which plagued him, and he sayd, Because the gods of the Kings of Aram helped them, I wil sacrifice vnto them, and they will helpe me: yet they were his ruine, and of all Israel.
Ọ chụrụ aja nye chi niile nke Damaskọs, bụ ndị meriri ya nʼagha. Ọ sịrị, “Nʼihi na chi nke ndị eze Aram nyeere ha aka, ha ka m ga-achụrụ aja, ka ha nwee ike nyere m aka.” Ma ha bụ ihe wetaara ya ọdịda, bụrụkwa ọdịda nye Izrel niile.
24 And Ahaz gathered the vessels of ye house of God, and brake the vessels of the house of God, and shut vp the doores of the house of the Lord, and made him altars in euery corner of Ierusalem.
Ehaz chịkọtara ngwongwo niile dị nʼụlọnsọ ukwu Chineke, gbujasịa ha. O mechiri ọnụ ụzọ niile e si abanye nʼụlọnsọ ukwu Onyenwe anyị, ma wuo ọtụtụ ebe ịchụ aja na nkuku ụzọ niile nʼime Jerusalem.
25 And in euery citie of Iudah hee made hie places, to burne incense vnto other gods, and prouoked to anger the Lord God of his fathers.
Nʼobodo niile ọbụla na Juda, o wuru ebe dị elu maka ịchụ aja dị iche iche nye chi ndị ọzọ, si otu a kpasuo Onyenwe anyị, bụ Chineke nna nna ya ha iwe.
26 Concerning the rest of his actes, and all his wayes first and last, beholde, they are written in the booke of the Kings of Iudah, and Israel.
Ma banyere ihe ndị ọzọ niile mere nʼoge ọchịchị ya, site na mmalite ruo ọgwụgwụ, ọ bụ na e deghị ha nʼakwụkwọ akụkọ ihe mere nʼoge ndị eze Juda na Izrel?
27 And Ahaz slept with his fathers, and they buried him in the citie of Ierusalem, but brought him not vnto the sepulchres of the Kings of Israel: and Hezekiah his sonne reigned in his stead.
Ehaz soro nna nna ya ha dina nʼọnwụ, e lie ya nʼobodo Jerusalem, ma ọ bụghị nʼime ili ebe a na-eli ndị eze Izrel. Hezekaya nwa ya, ghọrọ eze nʼọnọdụ ya.
