< 2 Chronicles 26 >
1 And all the people of Judah take Uzziah (and he [is] a son of sixteen years), and cause him to reign instead of his father Amaziah.
Awo Uzziya bwe yali ng’aweza emyaka kkumi na mukaaga egy’obukulu, abantu bonna aba Yuda, ne bamufuula kabaka n’asikira kitaawe Amaziya.
2 He has built Eloth, and restores it to Judah after the king’s lying with his fathers.
N’addaabiriza Erosi, n’akiddiza Yuda nga Amaziya amaze okuziikibwa.
3 Uzziah [is] a son of sixteen years in his reigning, and he has reigned fifty-two years in Jerusalem, and the name of his mother [is] Jecholiah of Jerusalem.
Uzziya yali awezezza emyaka kkumi na mukaaga we yaliira obwakabaka, n’afugira emyaka amakumi ataano mu ebiri mu Yerusaalemi. Nnyina ye yali Yekkiriya ow’e Yerusaalemi.
4 And he does that which is right in the eyes of YHWH, according to all that his father Amaziah did,
N’akola ebirungi mu maaso ga Mukama, nga kitaawe Amaziya bwe yasooka okukola.
5 and he is as one seeking God in the days of Zechariah who has understanding in visions of God: and in the days of his seeking YHWH, God has caused him to prosper.
N’amalirira okunoonya Katonda mu biro bya Zekkaliya eyamubuuliriranga okutya Katonda. Era ebbanga lyonna lye yanoonya Mukama, Katonda n’amuwa omukisa.
6 And he goes forth and fights with the Philistines, and breaks down the wall of Gath, and the wall of Jabneh, and the wall of Ashdod, and builds cities [around] Ashdod, and among the Philistines.
N’agenda n’alwana n’Abafirisuuti, n’amenyaamenya bbugwe wa Gaasi, ne bbugwe wa Yabune ne bbugwe wa Asudodi, n’oluvannyuma n’azimba ebibuga okumpi ne Asudodi ne mu bitundu ebirala wakati mu Bafirisuuti.
7 And God helps him against the Philistines, and against the Arabians who are dwelling in Gur-Ba‘al and the Mehunim.
Katonda n’amuyambanga ng’alwana n’Abafirisuuti, n’Abawalabu abaabeeranga mu Gulubaali, era n’Abamewunimu.
8 And the Ammonites give a present to Uzziah, and his name goes to the entering in of Egypt, for he strengthened himself greatly.
Abamoni ne bawanga Uzziya busuulu, era n’erinnya lye ne lyatiikirira n’okutuusa ku nsalo ya Misiri, kubanga yali afuuse wa maanyi nnyo.
9 And Uzziah builds towers in Jerusalem, by the Corner Gate, and by the Valley Gate, and by the angle, and strengthens them;
Uzziya n’azimba eminaala mu Yerusaalemi ku wankaaki ow’oku Nsonda, ne ku wankaaki ow’omu Kiwonvu, ne mu kifo bbugwe w’akyukira, era n’agissaako bbugwe.
10 and he builds towers in the wilderness, and digs many wells, for he had much livestock, both in the low country and in the plain, farmers and vinedressers in the mountains, and in Carmel; for he was a lover of the ground.
Era n’azimba n’eminaala mu ddungu, ate era n’asima n’ebidiba bingi mu biwonvu ne mu lusenyi, olw’amaggana amanene ge yalina. Yalina n’abantu abaakolanga mu nnimiro ze ez’emizabbibu mu nsozi n’abaalimanga ettaka eggimu, kubanga yayagalanga nnyo okulima.
11 And Uzziah has a force making war, going forth to the host, by troops, in the number of their reckoning by the hand of Jeiel the scribe and Masseiah the officer, by the hand of Hananiah [one] of the heads of the king.
Uzziya yalina eggye ery’abasajja abalwanyi abaatendekebwa obulungi, abaatabaalanga mu bibinja ng’emiwendo gyabwe bwe gyali, Yeyeri omuwandiisi gye yabala ne Maaseya omukungu, eyali wansi wa Kananiya, omu ku baduumizi b’eggye lya kabaka.
12 The whole number of heads of the fathers of the mighty men of valor [is] two thousand and six hundred;
Omuwendo gwonna awamu ogw’abakulu b’ennyumba ez’abasajja abalwanyi gwali enkumi bbiri mu lukaaga.
13 and by their hand [is] the force of the host—three hundred thousand and seven thousand and five hundred warriors, with mighty power to give help to the king against the enemy.
Abo be baaduumiranga eggye ery’abasajja abatendeke mu kulwana, abaawera emitwalo amakumi asatu mu kasanvu mu ebikumi bitaano, abaakuumanga kabaka.
14 And Uzziah prepares for them, for all the host, shields, and spears, and helmets, and coats of mail, and bows, even to stones of the slings.
Uzziya n’awa eggye lyonna, engabo, n’amafumu, n’enkuufiira ez’ebyuma, n’ebizibaawo eby’ebyuma, n’emitego emigumu, n’envuumuulo.
15 And he makes inventions in Jerusalem—a device of an inventor—to be on the towers, and on the corners, to shoot with arrows and with great stones, and his name goes out to a distance, for he has been wonderfully helped until he has been strong.
N’akozesa ebyuma mu Yerusaalemi ebyayiyizibwa abasajja abamanyirivu, ebyakozesebwanga ku minaala ne ku nkomera okulasa obusaale n’okuvuumuula amayinja amanene. Yayambibwa nnyo, n’atutumuka era erinnya lye ne lyatiikirira nnyo.
16 And at his being strong his heart has been high to destruction, and he trespasses against his God YHWH, and goes into the temple of YHWH to make incense on the altar of incense.
Kyokka Uzziya bwe yatutumuka, ne yeegulumiza, n’okugwa n’agwa kubanga teyali mwesigwa eri Mukama Katonda we, n’okuyingira n’ayingira mu yeekaalu ya Mukama okwotereza obubaane ku kyoto eky’obubaane.
17 And Azariah the priest goes in after him, and with him eighty priests of YHWH, sons of valor,
Azaliya kabona ne bakabona ba Mukama abalala abazira kinaana ne bagenda gy’ali,
18 and they stand up against Uzziah the king, and say to him, “[It is] not for you, O Uzziah, to make incense to YHWH, but for priests, sons of Aaron, who are sanctified to make incense; go forth from the sanctuary, for you have trespassed, indeed, for you [will] not [have] honor from YHWH God.”
ne bamuziyiza, nga bamugamba nti, “Si mulimu gwo, Uzziya, okwotereza Mukama obubaane, naye mulimu gwa bakabona bazzukulu ba Alooni abaayawulibwa okwotezanga obubaane. Ffuluma ove mu watukuvu, kubanga osobezza, era tojja kusiimibwa Mukama Katonda.”
19 And Uzziah is angry, and in his hand [is] a censer to make incense, and in his being angry with the priests—the leprosy has risen in his forehead, before the priests, in the house of YHWH, from beside the altar of incense.
Awo Uzziya n’asunguwala ng’akyakutte ekyoterezo mu mukono gwe. Mu kiseera ekyo ng’asunguwalidde bakabona ng’ayimiridde ku mabbali g’ekyoto eky’obubaane mu yeekaalu ya Mukama, ebigenge ne bimukwata ekyenyi kyonna.
20 And Azariah the head priest looks toward him, and all the priests, and behold, he [is] leprous in his forehead, and they hurry him there, and also he himself has hurried to go out, for YHWH has plagued him.
Awo Azaliya kabona asinga obukulu ne bakabona abalala bwe bamutunuulira, ne balaba ng’akwatiddwa ebigenge mu kyenyi kye ne banguwa okumufulumya ebweru. Ate era naye yennyini n’ayagala okufuluma kubanga Mukama yali amukubye omuggo.
21 And Uzziah the king is a leper to the day of his death, and inhabits a separate house—a leper, for he has been cut off from the house of YHWH, and his son Jotham [is] over the house of the king, judging the people of the land.
Kabaka Uzziya n’aba mugenge okutuusa lwe yafa, ng’abeera mu nnyumba eyayawulibwa ku ndala zonna olw’obugenge bwe, nga n’obuvunaanyizibwa bwonna bumuggyibbwako, ate era nga takkirizibwa kuyingira mu yeekaalu ya Mukama. Yosamu mutabani we n’atwala obuvunaanyizibwa obw’olubiri n’afuga abantu ab’eggwanga.
22 And the rest of the matters of Uzziah, the first and the last, Isaiah son of Amoz the prophet has written;
Ebyafaayo ebirala eby’omu mirembe gya Uzziya, okuva ku ntandikwa okutuusa ku nkomerero, byawandiikibwa Isaaya nnabbi, mutabani wa Amozi.
23 and Uzziah lies with his fathers, and they bury him with his fathers in the field of the burying-place that the kings have, for they said, “He [is] a leper”; and his son Jotham reigns in his stead.
Uzziya n’afa, n’aziikibwa okumpi ne bajjajjaabe mu kiggya kya bakabaka, kubanga, yali mugenge. Yosamu mutabani we n’amusikira, bw’atyo n’afuga mu kifo kye.
