< 2 Kings 14 >
1 In the second year of Joash son of Jehoahaz, king of Israel, Amaziah son of Joash, king of Judah, has reigned;
Le Israel fia, Yehoas, Yehoahaz ƒe vi ƒe fiaɖuɖu ƒe ƒe evelia me la, Amazia, Yoas ƒe vi zu fia le Yuda.
2 he was a son of twenty-five years in his reigning, and he has reigned twenty-nine years in Jerusalem, and the name of his mother [is] Jehoaddan of Jerusalem,
Amazia xɔ ƒe blaeve vɔ atɔ̃ ɣe ma ɣi eye wòɖu fia le Yerusalem ƒe blaeve-vɔ-asiekɛ. Dadaa ŋkɔe nye Yehoadin, ame si tso Yerusalem.
3 and he does that which [is] right in the eyes of YHWH, only not like his father David; he has done according to all that his father Joash did,
Amazia wɔ nu si dze Yehowa ŋu. Togbɔ be mede tɔgbuia David nu o hã la, enye fia nyui aɖe abe fofoa Yoas ene.
4 only, the high places have not been removed—the people are still sacrificing and making incense in high places.
Megbã nuxeƒewo le toawo dzi o, ale ameawo gasaa vɔ eye wogadoa dzudzɔ ʋeʋĩ le afi ma kokoko.
5 And it comes to pass, when the kingdom has been strong in his hand, that he strikes his servants, those striking his father the king,
Esi Amazia kpɔ be fiaɖuƒe la li ke ɖe yeƒe asi me la, ewu dumegã siwo katã wu fofoa.
6 and the sons of those striking [him] he has not put to death, as it is written in the Scroll of the Law of Moses that YHWH commanded, saying, “Fathers are not put to death for sons, and sons are not put to death for fathers, but each is put to death for his own sin.”
Ke mewu hlɔ̃dolawo ƒe viwo o, abe ale si Yehowa de se gblɔ woŋlɔ ɖe Mose ƒe Segbalẽa me ene bena, “Womawu fofowo ɖe viwo ƒe nu vɔ̃wo ta o, eye nenema ke womawu viwo ɖe fofowo ƒe nu vɔ̃wo ta o. Woawu ame sia ame ɖe eya ŋutɔ ko ƒe nu vɔ̃ ta.”
7 He has struck ten thousand of Edom in the Valley of Salt, and seized Selah in war, and [one] calls its name Joktheel to this day,
Amaziae wu Edomtɔ akpe ewo le Dze Balime. Exɔ Sela du la hã eye wòtrɔ ŋkɔ nɛ bena Yɔkteel. Ŋkɔ sia tsi eŋu va se ɖe egbe.
8 then Amaziah has sent messengers to Jehoash son of Jehoahaz, son of Jehu, king of Israel, saying, “Come, we look one another in the face.”
Gbe ɖeka la, Yuda fia, Amazia ɖo du ɖe Israel fia Yehoas, Yehoahaz ƒe vi kple Yehu tɔgbuiyɔvi la, be ne enye ŋutsu la, wòakplɔ eƒe aʋakɔ vɛ yewoawɔ aʋa.
9 And Jehoash king of Israel sends to Amaziah king of Judah, saying, “The thorn that [is] in Lebanon has sent to the cedar that [is] in Lebanon, saying, Give your daughter to my son for a wife; and a beast of the field that [is] in Lebanon passes by, and treads down the thorn.
Fia Yehoas do lo sia na Amazia be, “Ŋuve sue aɖe le Lebanon towo dzi gblɔ na sedati be, ‘Tsɔ viwò nyɔnu nam maɖe na vinye ŋutsu.’ Le ɣe ma ɣi tututu la, lã wɔadã aɖe va nye avuzi le ŋuve la dzi eye wògbãe ɖe anyigba.
10 You have certainly struck Edom, and your heart has lifted you up; be honored, and abide in your house; and why do you stir yourself up in evil, that you have fallen, you and Judah with you?”
Èɖu Edomtɔwo dzi eye wònye adegbeƒoƒo gã aɖe na wò. Ke aɖaŋu si maɖo na wò lae nye nàkpɔ ŋudzedze le wò dziɖuɖu ŋu eye nànɔ mia de kpoo! Nu ka ta nàhe dzɔgbevɔ̃e va ɖokuiwò kple Yuda siaa dzi?”
11 And Amaziah has not listened, and Jehoash king of Israel goes up, and they look one another in the face, he and Amaziah king of Judah, in Beth-Shemesh, that [is] Judah’s,
Ke Amazia gbe toɖoɖoe, ale Israel fia Yehoas ƒo ƒu aʋakɔ aɖe nu ɖe eŋu. Yoas kple Amazia ƒe aʋakɔwo do go le Bet Semes le Yuda.
12 and Judah is struck before Israel, and they each flee to his tent.
Ke Israel si Yuda eye eƒe aʋakɔ katã si yi aƒe.
13 And Jehoash king of Israel caught Amaziah king of Judah, son of Jehoash, son of Ahaziah, in Beth-Shemesh, and they come to Jerusalem, and he bursts through the wall of Jerusalem, at the Gate of Ephraim to the Corner Gate, four hundred cubits,
Israel fia Yehoas lé Amazia, Yuda fia, ame si nye Yoas ƒe vi, Ahazia ƒe vi le Bet Semes. Tete Yehoas yi Yerusalem eye wògbã Yerusalem ƒe gliwo ƒu anyi tso Efraimgbo la nu va se ɖe Dzogoedzigbo la gbɔ. Teƒe si wògbã la didi abe mita alafa ɖeka blaenyi ene.
14 and has taken all the gold and the silver, and all the vessels that are found in the house of YHWH, and in the treasures of the house of the king, and the sons of the pledges, and turns back to Samaria.
Fia Yehoas lɔ sika kple klosalo kple sikakplu siwo le Yehowa ƒe gbedoxɔa me kple fiasã la ƒe nudzraɖoƒewo katã hekpe ɖe awɔbamewo ŋu eye wògbugbɔ yi Samaria.
15 And the rest of the matters of Jehoash that he did, and his might, and how he fought with Amaziah king of Judah, are they not written on the scroll of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel?
Woŋlɔ nu mamlɛawo tso Yehoas ƒe fiaɖuɖu kple eƒe aʋawɔwɔ kple Yuda fia Amazia ŋu ɖe Israel fiawo ƒe ŋutinyagbalẽ me.
16 And Jehoash lies with his fathers, and is buried in Samaria with the kings of Israel, and his son Jeroboam reigns in his stead.
Esi Yehoas ku la, woɖii ɖe Samaria le Israel fia bubuwo gbɔ eye via Yeroboam ɖu fia ɖe eteƒe.
17 And Amaziah son of Joash, king of Judah, lives after the death of Jehoash son of Jehoahaz, king of Israel, fifteen years,
Ke Yuda fia Amazia, Yoas vi nɔ agbe ƒe wuiatɔ̃ le Israel fia Yehoas, Yehoahaz vi ƒe ku megbe.
18 and the rest of the matters of Amaziah, are they not written on the scroll of the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah?
Woŋlɔ Amazia ƒe ŋutinya mamlɛa ɖe Yuda fiawo ƒe ŋutinyagbalẽ me.
19 And they make a conspiracy against him in Jerusalem, and he flees to Lachish, and they send after him to Lachish, and put him to death there,
Woɖo nugbe ɖe eƒe agbe ŋu le Yerusalem ale wòsi yi Lakis, ke eƒe futɔwo dɔ ame ɖa woyi Lakis ɖawui le afi ma.
20 and lift him up on the horses, and he is buried in Jerusalem with his fathers in the City of David.
Wokɔ eƒe kukua ɖe sɔwo dzi va ɖi ɖe fiawo ƒe ameɖibɔ me le Yerusalem ƒe akpa si nye Fia David ƒe du la me.
21 And all the people of Judah take Azariah, and he [is] a son of sixteen years, and cause him to reign instead of his father Amaziah;
Wotsɔ via, Azaria ɖo fiae ɖe eteƒe, esi Azaria xɔ ƒe wuiade ko.
22 he has built Elath, and brings it back to Judah, after the lying of the king with his fathers.
Le fofoa ƒe ku megbe la, etu Elat eye wòxɔe na Yuda.
23 In the fifteenth year of Amaziah son of Joash, king of Judah, Jeroboam son of Joash, king of Israel, has reigned in Samaria, forty-one years,
Azɔ la, Yeroboam Evelia zu Israel fia le Yuda fia Amazia ƒe fiaɖuɖu ƒe ƒe wuiatɔ̃lia me. Yeroboam ɖu fia ƒe blaene-vɔ-ɖekɛ.
24 and he does evil in the eyes of YHWH; he has not turned aside from all the sins of Jeroboam son of Nebat that he caused Israel to sin.
Enye fia vɔ̃ɖi aɖe le Yehowa ŋkume abe Yeroboam Gbãtɔ, Nebat ƒe vi, ame si kplɔ Israel de legbawo subɔsubɔ ƒe nu vɔ̃ me la ene.
25 He has brought back the border of Israel, from the entering in of Hamath to the sea of the desert, according to the word of YHWH, God of Israel, that He spoke by the hand of His servant Jonah son of Amittai the prophet, who [is] of Gath-Hepher,
Yeroboam Evelia gbugbɔ Israel ƒe anyigba xɔ tso Lebo Hamat va se ɖe Araba ƒu la nu abe ale si Yehowa, Israel ƒe Mawu la gblɔe do ŋgɔ to Yona, Amitai ƒe vi, ame si nye Nyagblɔɖila tso Gat Hefer dzi la ene.
26 for YHWH has seen the very bitter affliction of Israel, and there is none restrained, and there is none left, and there is no helper for Israel;
Nu sia va eme elabena Yehowa kpɔ xaxa gã si me Israel ɖo; kluviwo kple dzɔleaƒeawo siaa le fu kpem, evɔ xɔnametɔ aɖeke menɔ wo si o la dzi ɖa.
27 and YHWH has not spoken to blot out the name of Israel from under the heavens, and saves them by the hand of Jeroboam son of Joash.
Gawu la, Yehowa megblɔ be yeatutu Israel ƒe ŋkɔ ɖa le anyigba dzi o, eya ta wòto Fia Yeroboam Evelia, Yehoas ƒe vi la dzi ɖe Israel.
28 And the rest of the matters of Jeroboam, and all that he did, and his might with which he fought, and with which he brought back Damascus, and Hamath of Judah, into Israel, are they not written on the scroll of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel?
Woŋlɔ Fia Yeroboam Evelia ŋutinya, nu siwo katã wòwɔ, ŋusẽ gã si wòkpɔ, eƒe aʋawɔwɔwo kple ale si wògbugbɔ Damasko kple Hamat, du siwo Yuda xɔ le Israel si la, xɔ la ɖe Israel fiawo ƒe ŋutinyagbalẽ me.
29 And Jeroboam lies with his fathers, with the kings of Israel, and his son Zechariah reigns in his stead.
Esi Yeroboam Evelia ku la, woɖii ɖe Israel Fia bubuwo gbɔ eye via Zekaria zu Israel Fia yeye la.
