< Kings IV 16 >

1 In the seventeenth year of Phakee son of Romelias began Achaz the son of Joatham king of Juda to reign.
Niorotse nifehe t’i Ahkaze ana’ Iotame mpanjaka’ Iehodà amy taom-paha-folo-fito’ ambi’ i Pekà ana’ i Remaliày.
2 Twenty years old was Achaz 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 faithfully, as David his father [had done].
Roapolo taoñe ty Ahkaze t’ie niorotse nifehe, le nifeleke folo taoñe eneñ’ amby e Ierosalaime ao; f’ie tsy nanahake i Davide rae’e mpanao ty hiti’e am-pihaino’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’e.
3 And he walked in the way of the kings of Israel, yes, he 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.
Te mone nañavelo an-tsata o mpanjaka’ Israeleo, mbore nampisorohe’e añ’afo i ana-dahi’ey, ami’ty haloloa’ o kilakila ondaty nandroaha’ Iehovà aolo’ o ana’ Israeleoo.
4 And he sacrificed and burnt incense on the high places, and upon the hills, and under every shady tree.
Nanao soroñe naho nañenga amo toets’ aboo re, naho amo haboañeo, le ambane’ ze atao hatae mandrevake iaby.
5 Then went up Raasson king of Syria and Phakee son of Romelias king of Israel against Jerusalem to war, and besieged Achaz, but could not prevail [against him].
Nionjomb’e Ierosalaime mb’eo amy zao t’i Retsine mpanjaka’ i Arame, naho i Pekà ana’ i Remalià mpanjaka’ Israele hialy; le narikatohe’ iareo t’i Ahkaze f’ie tsy nahagioke.
6 At that time Raasson king of Syria recovered Aelath to Syria, and drove out the Jews from Aelath, and the Idumeans came to Aelath, and lived there until this day.
Nampoli’ i Retsine amy Arame henane zay t’i Elate, le rinoa’e boak’ Elate ao o nte-Iehodao naho nivo­trake Elate o nte-Edomeo vaho nimo­neñe ao pak’ androany.
7 And Achaz sent messengers to Thalgath-phellasar king of the Assyrians, saying, I am your servant and your son: come up, deliver me out of the hand of the king of Syria, and out of the hand of the king of Israel, who are rising up against me.
Aa le nañitrike ìrak’ amy Tiglate-pilesere mpanjaka’ i Asore re, nanao ty hoe; Mpitoro’o naho ana’o iraho, mionjona mb’ etoa naho rombaho am-pitam-panjaka’ i Ara­me vaho am-pitam-panjaka’ Israele, ie fa nitroatse amako.
8 And Achaz took the silver and the gold that was found in the treasures of the house of the Lord, and of the king's house, and sent gifts to the king.
Aa le rinambe’ i Ahkaze ty volafoty naho ty volamena nizoeñe añ’ anjomba’ Iehovà naho am-pañajam-bara añ’ anjombam-panjaka ao le nampi­sangitrife’e ho ravoravo amy mpanjaka’ i Asorey añe.
9 And the king of the Assyrians listened to him: and the king of the Assyrians went up to Damascus and took it, and removed the inhabitants, and killed king Raasson.
Nañaoñe aze ty mpanjaka’ i Asore le nionjomb’e Damesèke mb’eo ty mpanjaka’ i Asore nitavañe naho nendese’e an-drohy mb’e Kire mb’eo ondati’eo vaho zinevo’e t’i Retsine.
10 And king Achaz went to Damascus to meet Thalgath-phellasar king of the Assyrians at Damascus; and he saw an altar at Damascus. And king Achaz sent to Urias the priest the pattern of the altar, and its proportions, and all its workmanship.
Nimb’e Damesèke mb’eo t’i Ahkaze hifampigaoñe amy Tiglate-pilesere mpanjaka’ i Asore, le niisa’e ty kitrely e Damesèk’ ao; le nampihitrife’ i Ahkaze mpanjaka amy Oriià mpisoroñe ty sare’ i kitreliy, naho ty vinta’e—ty fitseneañe aze iaby.
11 And Urias the priest built the altar, according to all [the directions] which king Achaz sent from Damascus.
Aa le niranjie’ i Oriià i kitreliy; i nañitrifa’ i Ahkaze mpanjaka ama’e boake Damesèk’ añe ty nitsenea’ i Oriià mpisoroñe aze, vaho nimpoly boake Damesèke t’i Ahkaze mpanjaka.
12 And the king saw the altar, and went up to it,
Aa ie pok’ eo boake Damesèke i mpanjakay, nizoe’ i mpanjakay i kitreliy; le nitotok’ amy kitreliy i mpanjakay vaho nañenga ama’e;
13 and offered his whole burnt offering, and his meat-offering, and his drink-offering, and poured out the blood of his peace-offerings on the brazen altar that was before the Lord.
nemboha’e i engan-koroa’ey, naho i engan-tsatrin’ arofo’ey, naho nadoa’e eo i enga ranoy, vaho nafitse’e amy kitreliy ty lio’ o engam-panintsiñañeo.
14 And he brought forward [the one] before the house of the Lord from between the altar and the house of the Lord, and he set it openly by the side of the altar northwards.
Le navi’e boak’ aolo’ i anjom­bay i kitrely torisike añatrefa’ Iehovày, ie boak’ añivo’ i kitreli’ey naho i an­jomba’ Iehovày, vaho napo’e avara’ i kitreli’ey eo.
15 And king Achaz charged Urias the priest, saying, Offer upon the great altar the whole burnt offering in the morning and the meat-offering in the evening, and the whole burnt offering of the king, and his meat-offering, and the whole burnt offering of all the people, and their meat-offering, and their drink-offering; and you shall pour all the blood of the whole burnt offering, and all the blood of [any other] sacrifice upon it: and the brazen altar shall be for me in the morning.
Linili’ i Ahkaze mpanjaka t’i Oriià mpisoroñe, ami’ty hoe: Amy kitrely jabajabay ty isoroñañe maraindraiñe naho i enga-mahakama harivay naho i fisoroña’ i mpanjakaiy naho i enga-mahakama’ey naho o fonga fisoroña’ ondati’ i taneio naho o enga mahakama’ iareoo naho o enga-rano’ iareoo, le afi­tsezo ama’e iaby ty lio’ o soroñañe iabio naho ty lio’ ze hene engaeñe; fe ho ahy hañontaneako i kitrely torisikey.
16 And Urias the priest did according to all that king Achaz commanded him.
Aa le nanoe’ i Oriià mpisoroñe iaby ty nandi­lia’ i Ahkaze mpanjaka aze.
17 And king Achaz cut off the borders of the bases, and removed the laver from off them, and took down the sea from the brazen oxen that were under it, and set it upon a base of stone.
Tsinera’ i Ahkaze mpanjaka ty lifi’ o kalesio, le nakatra’e o kovetao; le nazotso’e boak’ amo añombe-torisike ambane’eo i sajoa-beiy vaho napo’e ambone vato li­na­make eo.
18 And he made a base for the throne in the house of the Lord, and he turned the king's entrance without in the house of the Lord because of the king of the Assyrians.
Le nafaha’e amy anjomba’ Iehovày i lampalampa niranjieñe amy anjombay ho amo Sabatao naho i fimoahañe mb’ añ’ anjombam-panjaka alafe’ey, ty amy mpanjaka’ i Asorey.
19 And the rest of the acts of Achaz, even all that he did, [are] not these written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Juda?
Aa naho o fitoloña’ i Ahkaze ila’e nanoe’eo, tsy fa sinokitse amy bokem-pamoliliañe o mpanjaka’ Iehodaoy hao?
20 And Achaz slept with his fathers, and was buried in the city of David: and Ezekias his son reigned in his stead.
Le nitrao-piròtse aman-droae’e t’i Ahkaze naho nalenteke aman-droae’e an-drova’ i Davide ao vaho nandim­be aze nifehe t’i Kezkià ana’e.
