2 Kings 16
1 In the seventeenth year of Pekah the son of Remaliah Ahaz the son of Jotham king of Judah began to reign.
Le Peka, Remalia ƒe vi ƒe fiaɖuɖu ƒe ƒe wuiadrelia me la, Ahaz, Yotam ƒe vi, zu fia le Yuda.
2 Twenty years old was Ahaz when he began to reign; and he reigned sixteen years in Jerusalem; and he did not that which was right in the eyes of the LORD his God, like David his father.
Ahaz xɔ ƒe blaeve esi wòzu fia eye wòɖu fia le Yerusalem ƒe wuiade. Mewɔ nu si dzɔ le Yehowa, eƒe Mawu la ŋkume abe ale si tɔgbuia, Fia David wɔ ene o.
3 But he walked in the way of the kings of Israel, yea, and made his son to pass through the fire, according to the abominations of the heathen, whom the LORD cast out from before the children of Israel.
Eto Israel fiawo ƒe ʋeme eye wòtsɔ Via ŋutsu gɔ̃ hã wɔ dzovɔsa eye wòdze ŋunyɔnu siwo ke dukɔ siwo Yehowa nya le Israelviwo ŋgɔ la yome.
4 And he sacrificed and offered in the high places, and on the hills, and under every leafy tree.
Esaa vɔ eye wòdoa dzudzɔ hã le nuxeƒewo le toawo dzi kple le vɔsamlekpui geɖe siwo le atiwo te la dzi.
5 Then Rezin king of Aram and Pekah son of Remaliah king of Israel came up to Jerusalem to war; and they besieged Ahaz, but could not overcome him.
Siria fia Rezin kple Israel fia Peka, Remalia ƒe vi ho aʋa ɖe Ahaz ŋu eye woɖe to ɖe Yerusalem, ke womete ŋu ɖu edzi o.
6 At that time Rezin king of Aram recovered Elath to Aram, and drove the Jews from Elath; and the Edomites came to Elath, and dwelt there, unto this day.
Le ɣe ma ɣi la, Siria fia Rezin gbugbɔ Siria du si nye Elat la xɔ. Enya Yudatɔwo le dua me eye wòna Edomtɔwo yi ɖanɔ afi ma; wogale Elat va se ɖe egbe.
7 So Ahaz sent messengers to Tiglath-pileser king of Assyria, saying: 'I am thy servant and thy son; come up, and save me out of the hand of the king of Aram, and out of the hand of the king of Israel, who rise up against me.'
Fia Ahaz ɖo du ɖe Asiria fia, Tiglat Pilser eye wòɖe kuku nɛ be, “Wò subɔlawo kple viwòwoe míenye, meɖe kuku, va nàɖem tso Aram fia kple Israel fia, ame siwo tso ɖe ŋunye la ƒe asi me.”
8 And Ahaz took the silver and gold that was found in the house of the LORD, and in the treasures of the king's house, and sent it for a present to the king of Assyria.
Ahaz tsɔ klosalo kple sika si le gbedoxɔ la kple fiasã la ƒe nudzraɖoƒewo me la ɖo ɖe Asiria fia la abe nunana ene.
9 And the king of Assyria hearkened unto him; and the king of Assyria went up against Damascus, and took it, and carried the people of it captive to Kir, and slew Rezin.
Ale Asiriatɔwo dze Damasko, Siria ƒe fiadu dzi, woɖe aboyo dua me tɔwo yi ɖada ɖe Kir eye wowu Siria fia Rezin.
10 And king Ahaz went to Damascus to meet Tiglath-pileser king of Assyria, and saw the altar that was at Damascus; and king Ahaz sent to Urijah the priest the fashion of the altar, and the pattern of it, according to all the workmanship thereof.
Azɔ la, Fia Ahaz yi Damasko be yeawɔ takpekpe kple Asiria fia Tigat Pilser. Ekpɔ vɔsamlekpui aɖe le Damasko. Eŋlɔ vɔsamlekpui la ƒe dzidzemewo da ɖi, ta vɔsamlekpui la, ɖɔe tsitotsito ɖo ɖe nunɔla Uria.
11 And Urijah the priest built an altar; according to all that king Ahaz had sent from Damascus, so did Urijah the priest make it against the coming of king Ahaz from Damascus.
Ale nunɔla Uria tu vɔsamlekpui aɖe, wòsɔ ɖe tata si Fia Ahaz tsɔ ɖo ɖa tso Damasko la dzi eye wòwu enu hafi Fia Ahaz gbɔ.
12 And when the king was come from Damascus, the king saw the altar; and the king drew near unto the altar, and offered thereon.
Esi fia la gbɔ tso Damasko eye wòkpɔ vɔsamlekpuia la, ete ɖe eŋu eye wòsa vɔwo le edzi.
13 And he offered his burnt-offering and his meal-offering, and poured his drink-offering, and dashed the blood of his peace-offerings against the altar.
Fia la sa numevɔ kple nuɖuvɔ, kɔ nunovɔ ɖe edzi eye wòhlẽ ŋutifafavɔsa ƒe ʋu ɖe edzi.
14 And the brazen altar, which was before the LORD, he brought from the forefront of the house, from between his altar and the house of the LORD, and put it on the north side of his altar.
Etsɔ akɔblivɔsamlekpui si nɔ gbedoxɔ la ŋgɔ, le gbedoxɔ la ƒe mɔnu kple vɔsamlekpui yeye la dome la yi ɖada ɖe vɔsamlekpui yeye la ƒe axadzi le anyiehe lɔƒo.
15 And king Ahaz commanded Urijah the priest, saying: 'Upon the great altar offer the morning burnt-offering, and the evening meal-offering, and the king's burnt-offering, and his meal-offering, with the burnt-offering of all the people of the land, and their meal-offering, and their drink-offerings; and dash against it all the blood of the burnt-offering, and all the blood of the sacrifice; but the brazen altar shall be for me to look to.'
Fia Ahaz gblɔ na nunɔla Uria be wòawɔ vɔsamlekpui yeye la ŋu dɔ le numevɔwo, fiẽnuɖuvɔwo, fia ƒe numevɔwo kple nuɖuvɔwo kple ameawo ƒe vɔsawo kple woƒe nunovɔwo sasa me. Wòatsɔ numevɔsawo kple akpedavɔsawo ƒe ʋu ahlẽ ɖe vɔsamlekpui yeye la ŋu, ke ye ŋutɔ yeawɔ akɔblivɔsamlekpui xoxo la ŋu dɔ hena nukaka ko.
16 Thus did Urijah the priest, according to all that king Ahaz commanded.
Nunɔla Uria, wɔ fia Ahaz ƒe ɖoɖowo dzi pɛpɛpɛ.
17 And king Ahaz cut off the borders of the bases, and removed the laver from off them; and took down the sea from off the brazen oxen that were under it, and put it upon a pavement of stone.
Fia Ahaz ɖe nyinɔ siwo dzi nuwo nɔ le gbedoxɔ la me ɖe ga siwo wotsɔ tso gae ɖe wo nɔewo dzi kple gazɔ gã si nɔ akɔblinyiawo dzi la da ɖe kpui la dzi.
18 And the covered place for the sabbath that they had built in the house, and the king's entry without, turned he unto the house of the LORD, because of the king of Assyria.
Le bubudede Asiria fia ŋu ta la, Israel fia na woɖe Dzudzɔgbe ƒe agbadɔ si le gbedoxɔa me la ɖa eye wòna woɖe mɔnu tɔxɛ si fiawo tona gena ɖe Yehowa ƒe gbedoxɔ la hã ɖa.
19 Now the rest of the acts of Ahaz which he did, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?
Woŋlɔ Fia Ahaz ƒe fiaɖuɖu ƒe ŋutinya mamlɛawo kple nu siwo wòwɔ la ɖe Yuda fiawo ƒe ŋutinyagbalẽ me.
20 And Ahaz slept with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers in the city of David; and Hezekiah his son reigned in his stead.
Esi Ahaz ku la, woɖii ɖe fiawo ƒe ameɖibɔ le David ƒe du la me. Ke via Hezekia zu fia ɖe eteƒe.
