< 1 Kings 15 >
1 And in the eighteenth year of King Jeroboam son of Nebat, Abijam has reigned over Judah;
Mwaka wa ikũmi na ĩnana wa ũthamaki wa Jeroboamu mũrũ wa Nebati-rĩ, nĩguo Abija aatuĩkire mũthamaki wa Juda,
2 he has reigned three years in Jerusalem, and the name of his mother [is] Maachah daughter of Abishalom;
na agĩthamaka arĩ Jerusalemu mĩaka ĩtatũ. Nyina eetagwo Maaka mwarĩ wa Abisalomu.
3 and he walks in all the sins of his father that he did before him, and his heart has not been perfect with his God YHWH, as the heart of his father David;
Nĩekire mehia marĩa mothe ithe eekĩte mbere yake; ndeyamũrĩire Jehova Ngai wake na ngoro yake yothe, ta ũrĩa ngoro ya ithe Daudi yatariĩ.
4 but for David’s sake his God YHWH has given to him a lamp in Jerusalem, to raise up his son after him, and to establish Jerusalem,
No rĩrĩ, nĩ ũndũ wa Daudi, Jehova Ngai wake akĩmũhe tawa kũu Jerusalemu na ũndũ wa gũtua mũriũ mũthamaki ithenya rĩake, na gũtũma itũũra rĩa Jerusalemu rĩrũme.
5 in that David did that which [is] right in the eyes of YHWH, and did not turn aside from all that He commanded him all [the] days of his life—except in the matter of Uriah the Hittite;
Nĩgũkorwo Daudi nĩekĩte ũrĩa kwagĩrĩire maitho-inĩ ma Jehova, na ndaagire kũrũmia watho o na ũmwe wa Jehova matukũ-inĩ mothe ma muoyo wake, tiga ũhoro-inĩ wa Uria ũrĩa Mũhiti.
6 and there has been war between Rehoboam and Jeroboam all the days of his life.
Na rĩrĩ, gwatũũraga mbaara gatagatĩ ka Rehoboamu na Jeroboamu hĩndĩ ĩrĩa yothe Abija aarĩ muoyo.
7 And the rest of the matters of Abijam and all that he did, are they not written on the scroll of the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah? And there has been war between Abijam and Jeroboam;
Maũndũ marĩa mangĩ makoniĩ wathani wa Abija na ũrĩa wothe eekire-rĩ, githĩ matiandĩkĩtwo ibuku-inĩ rĩa maũndũ ma athamaki a Juda? Na nĩ kwarĩ mbaara gatagatĩ ka Abija na Jeroboamu.
8 and Abijam lies with his fathers, and they bury him in the City of David, and his son Asa reigns in his stead.
Nake Abija akĩhurũka hamwe na maithe make, na agĩthikwo thĩinĩ wa itũũra inene rĩa Daudi. Nake mũriũ Asa agĩtuĩka mũthamaki ithenya rĩake.
9 And in the twentieth year of Jeroboam king of Israel, Asa has reigned over Judah,
Mwaka wa mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ wa ũthamaki wa Jeroboamu mũthamaki wa Isiraeli-rĩ, nĩguo Asa aatuĩkire mũthamaki wa Juda,
10 and he has reigned forty-one years in Jerusalem, and the name of his mother [is] Maachah daughter of Abishalom.
nake agĩthamaka arĩ Jerusalemu mĩaka mĩrongo ĩna na ũmwe. Cũwe wake eetagwo Maaka mwarĩ wa Abisalomu.
11 And Asa does that which [is] right in the eyes of YHWH, like his father David,
Asa nĩekire ũrĩa kwagĩrĩire maitho-inĩ ma Jehova, o ta ũrĩa ithe Daudi eekĩte.
12 and removes the whoremongers out of the land, and turns aside all the idols that his fathers made;
Nĩaingatire maraya ma arũme ma mahooero-inĩ moime bũrũri ũcio, na akĩeheria mĩhianano yothe ya kũhooyagwo ĩrĩa maithe make maathondekete.
13 and also his mother Maachah—he turns her aside from being mistress, in that she made a horrible thing for an Asherah, and Asa cuts down her horrible thing, and burns [it] by the Brook of Kidron;
O na nĩeheririe cũwe wake Maaka atige gũtuĩka mũthamaki-mũndũ-wa-nja, tondũ nĩathondekete gĩtugĩ kĩa Ashera, kĩndũ kĩrĩ magigi mũno. Asa agĩkĩmomora, agĩgĩcinĩra kĩanda-inĩ gĩa Kidironi.
14 but the high places have not been removed; only, the heart of Asa has been perfect with YHWH [for] all his days,
O na gũtuĩka ndaathengirie mahooero marĩa maarĩ kũndũ gũtũũgĩru-rĩ, ngoro ya Asa nĩyerutĩire Jehova mũtũũrĩre-inĩ wake wothe.
15 and he brings in the sanctified things of his father, and his own sanctified things, to the house of YHWH: silver, and gold, and vessels.
Nĩarehire kũu hekarũ ya Jehova betha, na thahabu, na indo iria ciothe we mwene hamwe na ithe maamũrĩte.
16 And there has been war between Asa and Baasha king of Israel [for] all their days,
Gwatũire mbaara gatagatĩ ka Asa na Baasha mũthamaki wa Isiraeli, hĩndĩ yothe ya wathani wao.
17 and Baasha king of Israel goes up against Judah, and builds Ramah, not to permit anyone going out and coming in to Asa king of Judah.
Baasha mũthamaki wa Isiraeli nĩambatire agĩũkĩrĩra Juda na agĩaka rũthingo rwa hinya kũu Rama, nĩgeetha agirĩrĩrie andũ matikoime kana matoonye bũrũri wa Asa mũthamaki wa Juda.
18 And Asa takes all the silver and the gold that are left in the treasures of the house of YHWH, and the treasures of the house of the king, and gives them into the hand of his servants, and King Asa sends them to Ben-Hadad, son of Tabrimmon, son of Hezion king of Aram, who is dwelling in Damascus, saying,
Ningĩ Asa akĩruta betha na thahabu ciothe iria ciatigarĩte kĩgĩĩna-inĩ kĩa hekarũ ya Jehova na kĩa nyũmba yake ya ũthamaki. Nake agĩciĩhokera anene ake macitwarĩre Beni-Hadadi mũrũ wa Taburimoni, mũrũ wa Hezioni, mũthamaki wa Suriata, ũrĩa waathanaga Dameski.
19 “A covenant [is] between me and you, between my father and your father; behold, I have sent a reward of silver and gold to you; go, break your covenant with Baasha king of Israel, and he goes up from off me.”
Nake akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Reke hakorwo harĩ na kĩrĩĩko giitũ nawe, o ta ũrĩa haarĩ kĩrĩĩko gatagatĩ ka baba na thoguo. Ta kĩone, kĩheo kĩa betha na thahabu nĩkĩo ndagũtũmĩra. Rĩu tharia kĩrĩĩko kĩanyu na Baasha mũthamaki wa Isiraeli nĩguo atigane na niĩ.”
20 And Ben-Hadad listens to King Asa, and sends the heads of the forces that he has against cities of Israel, and strikes Ijon, and Dan, and Abel-Beth-Maachah, and all Chinneroth, besides all the land of Naphtali;
Beni-Hadadi agĩĩtĩkĩra ũhoro wa Mũthamaki Asa, agĩtũma anene a ikundi cia thigari ciake makahũũre matũũra ma Isiraeli. Nake agĩtooria Ijoni, na Dani, na Abeli-Bethi-Maaka, na Kinerethu guothe, hamwe na Nafitali.
21 and it comes to pass at Baasha’s hearing, that he ceases from building Ramah, and dwells in Tirzah.
Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa Baasha aiguire ũhoro ũcio, agĩtiga gwaka Rama, agĩthiĩ gũikara Tiriza.
22 And King Asa has summoned all Judah—there is none exempt—and they lift up the stones of Ramah, and its wood, that Baasha has built, and King Asa builds with them Geba of Benjamin, and Mizpah.
Ningĩ Mũthamaki Asa akĩruta watho kũu Juda guothe, gũtirĩ mũndũ watigĩrĩirwo, nao magĩkuua mahiga na mbaũ iria Baasha aahũthagĩra Rama. Indo icio nĩcio Mũthamaki Asa aakire nacio Geba kũu Benjamini, o na agĩaka kũu Mizipa.
23 And the rest of all the matters of Asa, and all his might, and all that he did, and the cities that he built, are they not written on the scroll of the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah? Only, at the time of his old age he was diseased in his feet;
Ha ũhoro wa maũndũ marĩa mangĩ mothe makoniĩ wathani wa Asa, marĩa mothe aahingirie, na ũrĩa wothe eekire, o na matũũra marĩa aakire-rĩ, githĩ matiandĩkĩtwo ibuku-inĩ rĩa maũndũ ma athamaki a Juda? Na rĩrĩ, Asa aakũra akĩrwara magũrũ.
24 and Asa lies with his fathers, and is buried with his fathers in the city of his father David, and his son Jehoshaphat reigns in his stead.
Hĩndĩ ĩyo Asa akĩhurũka hamwe na maithe make, agĩthikwo hamwe nao thĩinĩ wa itũũra inene rĩa ithe Daudi. Nake mũriũ Jehoshafatu agĩtuĩka mũthamaki ithenya rĩake.
25 And Nadab son of Jeroboam has reigned over Israel, in the second year of Asa king of Judah, and he reigns over Israel two years,
Nadabu mũrũ wa Jeroboamu aatuĩkire mũthamaki wa Isiraeli mwaka wa keerĩ wa Asa mũthamaki wa Juda, nake agĩthamakĩra Isiraeli mĩaka ĩĩrĩ.
26 and does evil in the eyes of YHWH, and goes in the way of his father, and in his sin that he made Israel to sin.
Nĩekire maũndũ ma waganu maitho-inĩ ma Jehova, akĩrũmĩrĩra mĩthiĩre ya ithe na mehia make marĩa maatũmire andũ a Isiraeli meehie.
27 And Baasha son of Ahijah, of the house of Issachar, conspires against him, and Baasha strikes him in Gibbethon, which [belonged] to the Philistines—and Nadab and all Israel are laying siege against Gibbethon—
Baasha mũrũ wa Ahija wa nyũmba ya Isakaru nĩaciirĩire kũmũũkĩrĩra, nake akĩmũũragĩra kũu Gibethoni, itũũra rĩa Afilisti, rĩrĩa Nadabu na Isiraeli othe marĩrigiicĩirie.
28 indeed, Baasha puts him to death in the third year of Asa king of Judah, and reigns in his stead.
Baasha ooragire Nadabu mwaka wa gatatũ wa Asa mũthamaki wa Juda na agĩtuĩka mũthamaki ithenya rĩake.
29 And it comes to pass, at his reigning, he has struck the whole house of Jeroboam, he has not left any breathing to Jeroboam until his destroying him, according to the word of YHWH, that He spoke by the hand of His servant Ahijah the Shilonite,
Aambĩrĩria gũthamaka-rĩ, nĩooragire andũ a nyũmba ya Jeroboamu othe. Ndaatigĩirie Jeroboamu mũndũ o na ũmwe arĩ muoyo, no aamaniinire othe, kũringana na kiugo kĩa Jehova kĩrĩa aaririe na kanua ka ndungata yake Ahija ũrĩa Mũshiloni,
30 because of the sins of Jeroboam that he sinned, and that he caused Israel to sin, by his provocation with which he provoked YHWH, God of Israel, to anger.
nĩ ũndũ wa mehia marĩa Jeroboamu ekĩte na agĩtũma Isiraeli mehie, na nĩ ũndũ nĩarakarĩtie Jehova, Ngai wa Isiraeli.
31 And the rest of the matters of Nadab and all that he did, are they not written on the scroll of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel?
Ha ũhoro wa maũndũ marĩa mangĩ makoniĩ wathani wa Nadabu, na marĩa mothe eekire-rĩ, githĩ matiandĩkĩtwo ibuku-inĩ rĩa maũndũ ma athamaki a Isiraeli?
32 And there has been war between Asa and Baasha king of Israel [for] all their days.
Gwatũire mbaara gatagatĩ ka Asa na Baasha mũthamaki wa Isiraeli hĩndĩ yothe ya wathani wao.
33 In the third year of Asa king of Judah, Baasha son of Ahijah has reigned over all Israel in Tirzah, twenty-four years,
Mwaka wa gatatũ wa Asa, mũthamaki wa Juda-rĩ, nĩguo Baasha mũrũ wa Ahija aatuĩkire mũthamaki wa Isiraeli guothe arĩ kũu Tiriza, na agĩthamaka mĩaka mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ na ĩna.
34 and he does evil in the eyes of YHWH, and walks in the way of Jeroboam, and in his sin that he caused Israel to sin.
Nĩekire maũndũ ma waganu maitho-ini ma Jehova, akĩrũmĩrĩra mĩthiĩre ya Jeroboamu, na mehia make marĩa maatũmire andũ a Isiraeli meehie.
