< 2 Chronicles 21 >
1 And Jehoshaphat slept with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers in the city of David. And Jehoram his son became king in his stead.
Nake Jehoshafatu akĩhurũka hamwe na maithe make na agĩthikwo hamwe nao o kũu Itũũra Inene rĩa Daudi. Nake mũriũ Jehoramu agĩtuĩka mũthamaki ithenya rĩake.
2 And he had brothers the sons of Jehoshaphat: 'Azaryah, and Jechiel, and Zecharyahu, and 'Azaryahu, and Michael, and Shephatyahu, all these being sons of Jehoshaphat the king of Israel.
Ariũ a ithe na Jehoramu mũrũ wa Jehoshafatu maarĩ Azaria, na Jehieli, na Zekaria, na Azariahu, na Mikaeli, na Shefatia. Acio othe maarĩ ariũ a Jehoshafatu mũthamaki wa Isiraeli.
3 And their father gave them many gifts [consisting] of silver, and of gold, and of precious things, with fortified cities in Judah; but the kingdom gave he to Jehoram; because he was the first-born.
Ithe nĩamaheete iheo nyingĩ cia betha na thahabu na indo ingĩ cia goro, o hamwe na matũũra manene mairigĩre na thingo cia hinya kũu Juda, no aaheanire ũthamaki kũrĩ Jehoramu tondũ nĩwe warĩ mũriũ wa irigithathi.
4 Now when Jehoram was risen up over the kingdom of his father, and had strengthened himself, he slew all his brothers with the sword, and also some of the princes of Israel.
Rĩrĩa Jehoramu eehaandire na akĩrũma ũthamaki-inĩ wa ithe-rĩ, nĩooragire ariũ a ithe othe na rũhiũ rwa njora, o hamwe na anene amwe a nyũmba ya ũthamaki a Isiraeli.
5 Thirty and two years was Jehoram old when he became king, and eight years did he reign in Jerusalem.
Jehoramu aarĩ wa mĩaka mĩrongo ĩtatũ na ĩĩrĩ rĩrĩa aatuĩkire mũthamaki. Nake agĩthamaka arĩ Jerusalemu mĩaka ĩnana.
6 And he walked in the way of the kings of Israel, as had done the house of Achab; for the daughter of Achab had he for wife: and he did what is evil in the eyes of the Lord.
Agĩthiĩ na mĩthiĩre ya athamaki a Isiraeli, o ta ũrĩa nyũmba ya Ahabu yekaga, nĩgũkorwo aahikĩtie mwarĩ wa Ahabu. Nake agakĩĩhagia maitho-inĩ ma Jehova.
7 Yet would the Lord not destroy the house of David, on account of the covenant which he had made with David, and as he had said to give to him a government and to his sons at all times.
No o na kũrĩ ũguo-rĩ, nĩ ũndũ wa kĩrĩkanĩro kĩa Jehova kĩrĩa aarĩkanĩire na Daudi, Jehova ndeendaga kwananga nyũmba ya Daudi. Nĩeranĩire atĩ nĩarĩmenyagĩrĩra tawa nĩ ũndũ wake na njiaro ciake nginya tene.
8 In his days Edom revolted from under the power of Judah, and they appointed a king over themselves.
Hĩndĩ ya Jehoramu-rĩ, Edomu nĩmaremeire Juda na magĩtua mũndũ ũngĩ mũthamaki wao ene.
9 Then did Jehoram go over with his princes, and all the chariots were with him; and he rose up by night, and smote the Edomites who compassed him about, and the captains of the chariots.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Jehoramu agĩthiĩ kuo na anene ake na ngaari ciake cia ita ciothe. Nao andũ a Edomu makĩmũrigiicĩria arĩ hamwe na anene a ngaari ciake cia ita, no agĩũkĩra ũtukũ, akĩũra.
10 Yet Edom revolted from under the power of Judah even until this day: then did Libnah revolt at the same time from under his power; because he had forsaken the Lord the God of his fathers.
Nginya ũmũthĩ, Edomu matũũraga maremeire Juda. O ihinda rĩu andũ a Libina makĩregana na watho wa Jehoramu, nĩgũkorwo nĩatiganĩirie Jehova, Ngai wa maithe make.
11 He also made high-places in the mountains of Judah, and caused the inhabitants of Jerusalem to go astray, and misled Judah.
O na ningĩ nĩakĩte kũndũ kũrĩa gũtũũgĩru kũu irĩma-inĩ cia Juda, na agatũma andũ a Jerusalemu mahũũre ũmaraya, na akahĩtithia andũ a Juda njĩra.
12 And there came unto him a writing from Elijah the prophet, saying, Thus hath said the Lord the God of David thy father, Inasmuch as thou hast not walked in the ways of Jehoshaphat thy father, and in the ways of Assa the king of Judah,
Jehoramu akĩnyiita marũa moimĩte kũrĩ mũnabii Elija maandĩkĩtwo atĩrĩ: “Jehova Ngai wa thoguo Daudi ekuuga ũũ: ‘Ndũthiĩte na mĩthiĩre ya thoguo Jehoshafatu, kana ya Asa mũthamaki wa Juda.
13 But hast walked in the way of the kings of Israel, and hast caused Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem to go astray, as the house of Achab hath caused [others] to go astray, and hast also slain thy brothers of thy father's house, who were better than thyself:
No rĩrĩ, nĩũthiĩte na mĩthiĩre ya athamaki a Isiraeli, na nĩũtongoretie andũ a Juda na a Jerusalemu nĩguo mahũũre ũmaraya, o ta ũrĩa nyũmba ya Ahabu yekire. O na ningĩ nĩũũragĩte ariũ a thoguo, na andũ a nyũmba ya thoguo, na andũ maarĩ aagĩrĩru gũgũkĩra.
14 Behold, the Lord will inflict a great plague on thy people, and on thy children, and on thy wives, and on all thy possessions;
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, rĩu Jehova akiriĩ kũhũũra andũ aku, na ariũ aku, na atumia aku, na kĩndũ gĩothe gĩaku, acihũũre ihũũra inene.
15 And thou shalt be [afflicted] with great diseases by a disease of thy bowels, until thy bowels pass out [from thee] by reason of the disease days upon days.
Wee mwene nĩũkũrũara mũno, ũrũare mũrimũ wa mara ũtangĩhona, nginya mũrimũ ũcio ũtũme mara maku mathire biũ.’”
16 And the Lord stirred up against Jehoram the spirit of the Philistines, and of the Arabians, that are alongside of the Cushim:
Jehova akĩarahũrĩra Jehoramu ũũru wa Afilisti na wa Arabu arĩa maatũũraga gũkuhĩ na Akushi.
17 And they went up against Judah, and made an incursion into it, and carried away all the substance that was found in the king's house, and also his sons, and his wives; and there was not left unto him any son, save Jehoachaz, the youngest of his sons.
Magĩtharĩkĩra Juda, na magĩkũhũũra, na magĩkuua indo ciothe iria ciarĩ nyũmba ya mũthamaki, o hamwe na ariũ ake na atumia ake. Ndaatigĩirio mũriũ o na ũmwe o tiga Ahazia ũrĩa warĩ mũnini mũno.
18 And after all this did the Lord afflict him in his bowels with a disease which was incurable.
Thuutha wa maũndũ macio mothe-rĩ, Jehova nĩarehithĩirie Jehoramu mũrimũ wa mara ũtangĩhona.
19 And it came to pass, from days to days, and when the [fixed] time was expired, after two years, that his bowels passed out [from him] by reason of his disease: so he died of evil diseases. And his people made no burning for him, like the burning for his fathers.
Mahinda mathiianga, mũthia-inĩ wa mĩaka ĩĩrĩ-rĩ, mara make makiuma nĩ ũndũ wa mũrimũ ũcio, nake agĩkua arĩ na ruo rũnene mũno. Andũ ake matiigana gwakia mwaki nĩ ũndũ wa gĩtĩĩo gĩake, ta ũrĩa meekĩte nĩ ũndũ wa maithe.
20 Thirty and two years old was he when he became king, and eight years did he reign in Jerusalem, and departed without joy: and they buried him in the city of David, but not in the sepulchres of the kings.
Jehoramu aarĩ wa mĩaka mĩrongo ĩtatũ na ĩĩrĩ rĩrĩa aatuĩkire mũthamaki, nake aathamakire arĩ Jerusalemu mĩaka ĩnana. Na rĩrĩ, akua gũtirĩ mũndũ wagĩire na kĩeha, nake agĩthikwo Itũũra Inene rĩa Daudi, no ndaathikirwo mbĩrĩra-inĩ cia athamaki.
