2 Kings 15

1 In the seuen and twentieth yeere of Ieroboam King of Israel, began Azariah, sonne of Amaziah King of Iudah to reigne.

Bere a Yeroboam a ɔto so abien di ade wɔ Israel no, ne mfe aduonu ason so na Amasia babarima Asaria fii ase dii ade wɔ Yuda.

2 Sixteene yeere olde was he, when he was made King, and he reigned two and fiftie yeere in Ierusalem: and his mothers name was Iecholiah of Ierusalem.

Obedii hene no, na wadi mfe dunsia. Na odii ade wɔ Yerusalem mfirihyia aduonum abien. Na ne na din de Yekolia a ofi Yerusalem.

3 And he did vprightly in the sight of the Lord, according to all that his father Amaziah did.

Na ɔteɛ wɔ Awurade ani so, sɛnea nʼagya Amasia teɛ no.

4 But the hie places were not put away: for the people yet offered, and burned incense in the hie places.

Wansɛe abosonnan a na nnipa kɔbɔ afɔre, kɔhyew nnuhuam wɔ hɔ no.

5 And the Lord smote the King: and he was a leper vnto the day of his death, and dwelt in an house apart, and Iotham the kings sonne gouerned the house, and iudged the people of the land.

Awurade maa kwata yɛɛ ɔhene no, kosii da a owui. Ne saa nti, na ɔno nko te ofi bi mu. Yotam a na ɔyɛ ɔhene no babarima na ɔhwɛɛ ahemfi no so, na odii nnipa a wɔwɔ asase no so no so.

6 Concerning the rest of the actes of Azariah, and all that he did, are they not written in the booke of the Chronicles of the Kings of Iudah?

Na Asaria adedi ho nsɛm nkae ne dwuma a odii nyinaa no, wɔankyerɛw angu Yuda Ahemfo Abakɔsɛm Nhoma no mu ana?

7 So Azariah slept with his fathers, and they buryed him with his fathers in the citie of Dauid, and Iotham his sonne reigned in his stead.

Asaria wui no, wosiee no wɔ ne mpanyimfo nkyɛn wɔ Dawid kurow mu. Na ne babarima Yotam na odii nʼade sɛ ɔhene.

8 In the eyght and thirtieth yeere of Azariah King of Iudah did Zachariah the sonne of Ieroboam reigne ouer Israel in Samaria sixe moneths,

Yudahene Asaria dii ade no, ne mfe aduasa awotwe mu no na Yeroboam a ɔto so abien babarima Sakaria nso dii ade Israel wɔ Samaria. Odii ade asram asia.

9 And did euill in the sight of the Lord, as did his fathers: for he departed not from the sinnes of Ieroboam the sonne of Nebat, which made Israel to sinne.

Ɔyɛɛ bɔne wɔ Awurade ani so, sɛnea nʼagyanom yɛe no. Wamfi ahonisom a Nebat babarima Yeroboam maa Israelfo som no ho.

10 And Shallum the sonne of Iabesh cospired against him, and smote him in the sight of the people, and killed him, and reigned in his stead.

Na Yabes babarima Salum bɔɔ pɔw de tiaa Sakaria, kum no wɔ bagua mu, dii akongua no.

11 Concerning the rest of the actes of Zachariah, behold, they are written in the booke of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel.

Sakaria dwuma a odii nkae no, wɔankyerɛw angu Israel Ahemfo Abakɔsɛm Nhoma no mu ana?

12 This was the word of the Lord, which he spake vnto Iehu, saying, Thy sonnes shall sit on the throne of Israel vnto the fourth generation after thee. And it came so to passe.

Enti, Awurade asɛm a ɔka kyerɛɛ, Yehu se, “Wʼasefo na wɔbɛyɛ Israel ahemfo akosi awo ntoatoaso a ɛto so anan” mu no, baa mu.

13 Shallum the sonne of Iabesh began to reigne in the nine and thirtieth yeere of Vzziah King of Iudah: and he reigned the space of a moneth in Samaria.

Yabes babarima Salum bedii Israel so hene no, na ɛyɛ Yudahene Usia adedi mfe aduasa akron mu. Salum dii ade wɔ Samaria ɔsram baako pɛ.

14 For Menahem the sonne of Gadi went vp from Tirzah, and came to Samaria, and smote Shallum the sonne of Iabesh in Samaria, and slew him, and reigned in his stead.

Afei, Gadi babarima Menahem fii Tirsa kɔɔ Samaria. Ɔkɔtow hyɛɛ Yabes babarima Salum so kum no, na ɔtenaa akongua no so.

15 Cocerning the rest of the acts of Shallum, and the treason which he wrought, beholde, they are written in the booke of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel.

Salum ahenni ho nsɛm nkae ne pɔw a ɔbɔe no, wɔankyerɛw angu Israel Ahemfo Abakɔsɛm Nhoma no mu?

16 Then Menahem destroyed Tiphsah, and all that were therein, and the coastes thereof from Tirzah, because they opened not to him, and he smote it, and ript vp all their women with childe.

Saa bere no mu, Menahem fii Tirsa kɔtoaa Tifsa ne obiara a ɔwɔ hɔ ne ne nkurow nyinaa, efisɛ ɛhɔfo no ampene so sɛ wɔde kurow no bɛma. Okunkum kurow no mu nnipa nyinaa, paapae emu apemfo nyinaa yafunu mu.

17 The nine and thirtieth yeere of Azariah King of Iudah, beganne Menahem the sonne of Gadi to reigne ouer Israel, and reigned ten yeeres in Samaria.

Gadi babarima Menahem fii ase dii Israelhene bere a na Usia adi ade wɔ Yuda ne mfe aduasa akron so. Odii hene wɔ Samaria mfirihyia du.

18 And he did euill in the sight of the Lord, and departed not all his dayes from the sinne of Ieroboam the sonne of Nebat, which made Israel to sinne.

Nanso Menahem yɛɛ bɔne wɔ Awurade ani so. Nʼahenni mu nyinaa, wannyae bɔne a ɛyɛ ahonisom no a na Nebat babarima Yeroboam adi Israelfo anim de wɔn asom no.

19 Then Pul the king of Asshur came against the land: and Menahem gaue Pul a thousand talents of siluer, that his hande might bee with him, and establish the kingdome in his hand.

Afei, Asiriahene Pul bedii asase no so. Na Menahem tuaa dwetɛ nkaribo tɔn aduasa ason maa no sɛnea ɔbɛtaa nʼakyi ama nʼahenni no atim.

20 And Menahem exacted the money in Israel, that all men of substance shoulde giue the King of Asshur fiftie shekels of siluer a piece: so the king of Asshur returned and taried not there in the land.

Menahem nam apoobɔ so gyigyee Israel asikafo no mu biara nkyɛn dwetɛ a ɛkari gram ahannum aduoson de maa Asiriahene. Ɛno nti, Asiriahene ankɔtow anhyɛ Israel so, na wantena asase no so nso.

21 Concerning the rest of the actes of Menahem, and all that he did, are they not written in the booke of the Chronicles of the kings of Israel?

Na Menahem adedi ho nsɛm nkae ne dwuma a odii nyinaa, wɔankyerɛw angu Israel Ahemfo Abakɔsɛm Nhoma no mu ana?

22 And Menahem slept with his fathers, and Pekahiah his sonne did reigne in his steade.

Bere a Menahem wui no, ne babarima Pekahia na odii nʼade sɛ ɔhene.

23 In ye fiftieth yere of Azariah king of Iudah, began Pekahiah the sonne of Menahem to reigne ouer Israel in Samaria, and reigned two yere.

Menahem babarima Pekahia fii ase dii Israelhene wɔ Yudahene Usia ahenni ne mfe aduonum so. Odii hene wɔ Samaria mfe abien.

24 And he did euill in the sight of the Lord: for he departed not from the sinnes of Ieroboam the sonne of Nebat, which made Israel to sinne.

Nanso Pekahia yɛɛ bɔne wɔ Awurade ani so. Wantwe ne ho amfi ahonisom a Nebat babarima Yeroboam dii Israelfo anim ma wɔsom no ho.

25 And Pekah the sonne of Remaliah, his captaine conspired against him, and smote him in Samaria in the place of the Kings palace with Argob and Arieh, and with him fiftie men of the Gileadites: so he killed him, and reigned in his steade.

Na Remalia babarima Peka a na ɔyɛ Pekahia asraafo so sahene no bɔɔ pɔw tiaa no. Ɔfaa mmarima aduonum fii Gilead, kaa ne ho, kokum ɔhene no ne Argob ne Arie wɔ Samaria ahemfi abangua mu. Peka na afei obedii hene wɔ Israel.

26 Concerning the rest of the actes of Pekahiah, and all that he did, behold, they are written in the booke of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel.

Pekahia ahenni ho nsɛm nkae ne dwuma a odii nyinaa, wɔankyerɛw angu Israel Ahemfo Abakɔsɛm Nhoma no mu ana?

27 In the two and fiftieth yere of Azariah King of Iudah began Pekah the sonne of Remaliah to reigne ouer Israel in Samaria, and reigned twentie yeere.

Remalia babarima Peka bedii hene wɔ Israel wɔ bere a na Usia adi hene wɔ Yuda mfe aduonum abien. Odii ade wɔ Samaria mfirihyia aduonu.

28 And he did euil in the sight of the Lord: for he departed not from the sinnes of Ieroboam the sonne of Nebat, that made Israel to sinne.

Nanso Peka yɛɛ bɔne wɔ Awurade ani so. Wantwe ne ho amfi ahonisom a Nebat babarima Yeroboam dii Israel anim ma wɔsom no ho.

29 In the dayes of Pekah king of Israel came Tiglath Pileser king of Asshur, and tooke Iion, and Abel, Beth-maachah, and Ianoah, and Kedesh, and Hazor, and Gilead, and Galilah, and all the land of Naphtali, and caryed them away to Asshur.

Peka ahenni so no, Asiriahene Tiglat-Pileser kɔtoaa Israelfo bio, faa nkurow Iyon ne Abel-Bet-Maaka ne Yanoa ne Kedes ne Hasor ne Gilead ne Galilea ne Naftali nsase nyinaa. Na ɔfaa nnipa no nnommum kɔɔ Asiria.

30 And Hoshea the sonne of Elah wrought treason against Pekah the sonne of Remaliah, and smote him, and slewe him, and reigned in his stead in the twentieth yeere of Iotham the sonne of Vzziah.

Na Ela babarima Hosea bɔɔ pɔw, tiaa Peka na okum no. Ofii ase dii Israel so hene bere a na Usia babarima Yotam nso adi ade mfe aduonu wɔ Yuda.

31 Concerning the rest of the actes of Pekah, and all that he did, behold, they are written in the booke of the Chronicles of the kings of Israel.

Peka adedi mu nsɛm nkae ne dwuma a odii nyinaa, wɔankyerɛw angu Israel Ahemfo Abakɔsɛm Nhoma no mu ana?

32 In the second yere of Pekah the sonne of Remaliah King of Israel, began Iotham sonne of Vzziah King of Iudah to reigne.

Usia babarima Yotam dii hene wɔ Yuda bere a na ɔhene Peka adi ade wɔ Israel mfirihyia abien.

33 Fiue and twentie yeere olde was he, when he began to reigne, and he reigned sixteene yeere in Ierusalem: and his mothers name was Ierusha the daughter of Zadok.

Odii ade no, na wadi mfirihyia aduonu anum, na odii Yerusalem so hene mfe dunsia. Na ne na a ɔyɛ Sadok babea no din de Yerusa.

34 And hee did vprightly in the sight of the Lord: he did according to all that his father Vzziah had done.

Yotam yɛɛ nea ɛsɔ Awurade ani, sɛnea nʼagya Usia yɛe no ara pɛ.

35 But the hie places were not put away: for the people yet offered and burnt incense in the hie places: he buylt the hyest gate of the house of the Lord.

Nanso wansɛe abosonnan a na nnipa kɔbɔ afɔre, kɔhyew nnuhuam wɔ hɔ no. Ɔno ne obi a ɔsan sii Awurade Asɔredan no atifi pon.

36 Concerning the rest of the acts of Iotham, and all that hee did, are they not written in the booke of the Chronicles of the kings of Iudah?

Yotam ahenni ho nsɛm nkae ne nea ɔyɛe nyinaa, wɔankyerɛw angu Yuda Ahemfo Abakɔsɛm Nhoma no mu ana?

37 In those dayes the Lord began to send against Iudah Rezin the king of Aram, and Pekah the sonne of Remaliah.

Saa mmere no mu, Awurade fii ase somaa Aramhene Resin ne Israelhene Peka, sɛ wɔnkɔtow nhyɛ Yuda so.

38 And Iotham slept with his fathers, and was buryed with his fathers in the citie of Dauid his father, and Ahaz his sonne reigned in his steade.

Bere a Yotam wui no, wosiee no wɔ ne mpanyimfo nkyɛn wɔ Dawid kurow mu. Na ne babarima Ahas bedii nʼade sɛ ɔhene.
