< 2 Kings 16 >

1 The seuenteenth yeere of Pekah the sonne of Remaliah, Ahaz the sonne of Iotham King of Iudah began to reigne.
Na rĩrĩ, mwaka-inĩ wa ikũmi na mũgwanja wa ũthamaki wa Peka mũrũ wa Remalia, Ahazu mũrũ wa Jothamu mũthamaki wa Juda akĩambĩrĩria gũthamaka.
2 Twentie yeere olde was Ahaz, when hee began to reigne, and he reigned sixteene yeere in Ierusalem, and did not vprightly in the sight of the Lord his God, like Dauid his father:
Ahazu aarĩ wa mĩaka mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ rĩrĩa aatuĩkire mũthamaki, nake agĩthamaka arĩ Jerusalemu mĩaka ikũmi na ĩtandatũ. Nake ndaigana gwĩka maũndũ magĩrĩire maitho-inĩ ma Jehova Ngai wake, ta ũrĩa ithe Daudi eekĩte.
3 But walked in the way of ye kings of Israel, yea, and made his sonne to go through the fire, after the abominations of the heathen, whom the Lord had cast out before the children of Israel.
Aathiiaga na mĩthiĩre ya athamaki a Isiraeli, o na akĩruta mũriũ arĩ igongona rĩa njino, akĩrũmĩrĩra njĩra iria irĩ magigi cia ndũrĩrĩ iria Jehova aingatire ciehere mbere ya Isiraeli.
4 Also he offred and burnt incense in the hie places and on the hilles, and vnder euery greene tree.
Nĩaarutĩire magongona na agĩcinĩra ũbumba kũndũ kũrĩa gũtũũgĩru, na tũcũmbĩrĩ-inĩ twa irĩma, o na rungu rwa mĩtĩ ĩrĩa mĩruru.
5 Then Rezin king of Aram and Pekah sonne of Remaliah King of Israel came vp to Ierusalem to fight: and they besieged Ahaz, but could not ouercome him.
Hĩndĩ ĩyo Rezini mũthamaki wa Suriata, na Peka mũrũ wa Remalia mũthamaki wa Isiraeli, makiumagara makahũũrane na Jerusalemu, na makĩrigiicĩria Ahazu, no matiamũtooririe.
6 At the same time Rezin king of Aram restored Elath to Aram, and droue the Iewes from Elath: so the Aramites came to Elath, and dwelt there vnto this day.
Hĩndĩ ĩyo Rezini mũthamaki wa Suriata agĩtunyana itũũra rĩa Elathu, akĩrĩcookeria Suriata, na akĩingata andũ a Juda. Andũ a Edomu magĩthaamĩra Elathu, na matũire kuo nginya ũmũthĩ.
7 Then Ahaz sent messengers to Tiglath Pileser king of Asshur, saying, I am thy seruant and thy sonne: come vp, and deliuer me out of the hand of the king of Aram, and out of the hand of the King of Israel which rise vp against me.
Ahazu agĩtũma andũ kũrĩ Tigilathu-Pileseru mũthamaki wa Ashuri makamwĩre atĩrĩ, “Nĩ niĩ ndungata na ngombo yaku. Ambata, ũũke ũũhonokie kuuma guoko-inĩ kwa mũthamaki wa Suriata na mũthamaki wa Isiraeli, arĩa maratharĩkĩra.”
8 And Ahaz tooke the siluer and the golde that was found in the house of the Lord, and in the treasures of the Kings house, and sent a present vnto the King of Asshur.
Nake Ahazu agĩkuua betha na thahabu iria ciarĩ hekarũ-inĩ ya Jehova, na igĩĩna-inĩ iria cia nyũmba ya ũthamaki, na agĩcitũma irĩ iheo kũrĩ mũthamaki wa Ashuri.
9 And the King of Asshur consented vnto him: and the King of Asshur went vp against Damascus. and when he had taken it, he caryed the people away to Kir, and slew Rezin.
Mũthamaki wa Ashuri agĩĩtĩkĩra na ũndũ wa gũtharĩkĩra itũũra rĩa Dameski na akĩrĩtunyana. Agĩthaamia atũũri akuo akĩmatwara Kiri na akĩũraga Rezini.
10 And King Ahaz went vnto Damascus to meete Tiglath Pileser King of Asshur: and when King Ahaz sawe the altar that was at Damascus, he sent to Vriiah the Priest the paterne of the altar, and the facion of it, and all the workemanship thereof.
Hĩndĩ ĩyo Mũthamaki Ahazu agĩthiĩ Dameski gũtũngana na Tigilathu-Pileseru mũthamaki wa Ashuri. Nake akĩona kĩgongona kũu Dameski, agĩtũmĩra Uria mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai mũcoro wa kĩgongona kĩu o na mwakĩre wakĩo o ta ũrĩa gĩakĩtwo.
11 And Vriiah the Priest made an altar in al poyntes like to that which King Ahaz had sent from Damascus, so did Vriiah the Priest against King Ahaz came from Damascus.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Uria ũrĩa mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai agĩaka kĩgongona kũringana na ũrĩa wothe aatũmĩirwo, gĩcoretwo nĩ Mũthamaki Ahazu kuuma Dameski, na agĩkĩrĩĩkia mbere ya Mũthamaki Ahazu gũcooka.
12 So when the King was come from Damascus, the King sawe the altar: and the King drewe neere to the altar and offered thereon.
Rĩrĩa mũthamaki aacookire kuuma Dameski na akĩona kĩgongona kĩu, agĩkuhĩrĩria na akĩrutĩra igongona igũrũ rĩakĩo.
13 And hee burnt his burnt offering, and his meate offring, and powred his drinke offring, and sprinkled the blood of his peace offrings besides the altar,
Akĩruta igongona rĩake rĩa njino na rĩa mũtu, na agĩitĩrĩria indo iria irutagwo cia kũnyuuo na akĩminjaminjĩria kĩgongona kĩu thakame ya maruta ma ũiguano.
14 And set it by the brasen altar which was before the Lord, and brought it in farther before the house betweene the altar and the house of the Lord, and set it on the North side of the altar.
Nakĩo kĩgongona gĩa gĩcango kĩrĩa kĩarĩ mbere ya Jehova, agĩkĩruta mwena wa na mbere wa hekarũ, kuuma gatagatĩ-inĩ ga kĩgongona kĩu kĩerũ na hekarũ ya Jehova, agĩkĩiga mwena wa gathigathini wa kĩgongona kĩu kĩerũ.
15 And King Ahaz commanded Vriiah the Priest, and sayde, Vpon the great altar set on fire in the morning the burnt offring, and in the euen the meate offring, and the Kings burnt offring and his meate offering, with the burnt offring of all the people of the lande, and their meate offring, and their drinke offrings: and powre thereby all the blood of the burnt offring, and all the blood of the sacrifice, and the brasen altar shalbe for me to inquire of God.
Hĩndĩ ĩyo Mũthamaki Ahazu akĩhe Uria ũrĩa mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai mawatho maya: “Igũrũ rĩa kĩgongona kĩu kĩnene kĩerũ, rutagĩra ho iruta rĩa njino rĩa rũciinĩ, na iruta rĩa mũtu rĩa hwaĩ-inĩ, na iruta rĩa mũthamaki rĩa njino, na iruta rĩake rĩa mũtu, na iruta rĩa njino rĩa andũ othe a bũrũri, na iruta rĩao rĩa mũtu na iruta rĩao rĩa kũnyuuo. Na ũminjaminjagĩrie kĩgongona thakame yothe ya maruta ma njino na ya magongona. No kĩgongona gĩa gĩcango, ndĩrĩkĩhũthagĩra na gũtuĩria ũhoro kuuma kũrĩ Jehova.”
16 And Vriiah the Priest did according to all that King Ahaz had commanded.
Nake Uria ũrĩa mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai agĩĩka o ta ũrĩa Mũthamaki Ahazu aamwathĩte.
17 And King Ahaz brake the borders of the bases, and tooke the caldrons from off them, and tooke downe the sea from the brasen oxen that were vnder it, and put it vpon a pauement of stones.
Mũthamaki Ahazu akĩeheria icunjĩ cia mwena-inĩ, na akĩeheria iraĩ kuuma makaari-inĩ macio. Akĩeheria itangi rĩrĩa rĩetagwo Karia igũrũ rĩa mĩhianano ya ndegwa cia gĩcango iria ciakanyiitĩrĩire, na agĩkaigĩrĩra itina-inĩ cia mahiga.
18 And the vaile for the Sabbath (that they had made in the house) and the Kings entrie without turned he to the house of the Lord, because of the King of Asshur.
Nĩeheririe gĩthaku gĩa Thabatũ kĩrĩa gĩakĩtwo hekarũ-inĩ, na agĩthaamia itoonyero rĩa athamaki hau nja ya hekarũ ya Jehova, nĩguo akenie mũthamaki wa Ashuri.
19 Concerning the rest of the actes of Ahaz, which he did, are they not written in the booke of the Chronicles of the Kings of Iudah?
Ha ũhoro wa maũndũ marĩa mangĩ makoniĩ wathani wa Ahazu, na ũrĩa eekire-rĩ, githĩ matiandĩkĩtwo ibuku-inĩ rĩa mahinda ma athamaki a Juda?
20 And Ahaz slept with his fathers, and was buryed with his fathers in the citie of Dauid, and Hezekiah his sonne reigned in his steade.
Nake Ahazu akĩhurũka hamwe na maithe make, na agĩthikwo hamwe nao Itũũra-inĩ inene rĩa Daudi. Nake mũriũ Hezekia agĩtuĩka mũthamaki ithenya rĩake.
