< 2 Kings 12 >

1 In the seventh year of Jehu began Jehoash to reign; and he reigned forty years in Jerusalem: and his mother's name was Zibiah of Beersheba.
Mu mwaka ogw’omusanvu ogw’obufuzi bwa Yeeku, Yekoyaasi, nnyina nga ye Zebbiya ow’e Beeruseba, n’atandika okuba kabaka, n’afugira emyaka amakumi ana mu Yerusaalemi.
2 Jehoash did that which was right in the eyes of Jehovah all his days in which Jehoiada the priest instructed him.
Yekoyaasi n’akola ebirungi mu maaso ga Mukama, ebbanga lyonna, kubanga Yekoyaada kabona ye yamuyigirizanga.
3 However the high places were not taken away; the people still sacrificed and burnt incense in the high places.
Wabula, ebifo ebigulumivu tebyaggibwawo, n’abantu ne beeyongeranga okuwaayo ssaddaaka n’okwoterezanga obubaane ku bifo ebyo.
4 Jehoash said to the priests, "All the money of the holy things that is brought into the house of Jehovah, in current money, the money of the persons for whom each man is rated, and all the money that it comes into any man's heart to bring into the house of Jehovah,
Awo Yekoyaasi n’agamba bakabona nti, “Mukuŋŋaanye ensimbi zonna ezireetebwa ng’ebiweebwayo ebitukuzibwa mu yeekaalu ya Mukama, ensimbi ez’omusolo buli muntu z’awaayo, n’ensimbi buli muntu z’awaayo ng’endobolo mu yeekaalu, n’ensimbi buli muntu ze yeesalira kyeyagalire, n’azireeta mu yeekaalu ya Mukama,
5 let the priests take it to them, every man from his acquaintance; and they shall repair the breaches of the house, wherever any breach shall be found."
n’oluvannyuma buli kabona addire ezo z’akuŋŋaanyizza aziweeyo okuddaabiriza buli aweetaagisa ku yeekaalu.”
6 But it was so, that in the three and twentieth year of king Jehoash the priests had not repaired the breaches of the house.
Naye oluvannyuma lw’emyaka amakumi abiri mu esatu egy’obufuzi bwa kabaka Yekoyaasi, bakabona ne baba nga tebannaddaabiriza yeekaalu.
7 Then king Jehoash called for Jehoiada the priest, and for the other priests, and said to them, "Why do you not repair the breaches of the house? Now therefore take no more money from your treasurers, but deliver it for the breaches of the house."
Awo kabaka Yekoyaasi n’atumya Yekoyaada kabona asinga obukulu ne bakabona abalala, n’ababuuza nti, “Kiki ekibalobera okuddaabiriza yeekaalu? Kale nno, mulekeraawo okutoola ku nsimbi ezikuŋŋaanyizibwa, naye muziweeyo olw’okuddaabiriza yeekaalu.”
8 The priests consented that they should take no more money from the people, neither repair the breaches of the house.
Bakabona ne bakkiriziganya obutaddayo kukuŋŋaanya nsimbi ku bantu, wadde bo bennyini okuvunaanyizibwa okuddaabiriza yeekaalu.
9 But Jehoiada the priest took a chest, and bored a hole in its lid, and set it beside the altar, on the right side as one comes into the house of Jehovah: and the priests who kept the threshold put in it all the money that was brought into the house of Jehovah.
Yekoyaada kabona asinga obukulu n’addira essanduuko n’awumula ekituli mu kisaanikizo kyayo, n’agiteeka ku luuyi olwa ddyo okumpi n’ekyoto okuliraana n’awayingirirwa. Bakabona abaakuumanga omulyango ne bateekangamu ensimbi zonna ezaaleetebwanga mu yeekaalu ya Mukama.
10 It was so, when they saw that there was much money in the chest, that the king's scribe and the high priest came up, and they put up in bags and counted the money that was found in the house of Jehovah.
Awo bwe baalabanga ng’ensimbi ezireeteddwa mu yeekaalu ya Mukama ziweze nnyingi mu ssanduuko, omuwandiisi wa kabaka ne kabona asinga obukulu ne bajjanga okuzibala n’okuzitereka.
11 They gave the money that was weighed out into the hands of those who did the work, who had the oversight of the house of Jehovah: and they paid it out to the carpenters and the builders, who worked on the house of Jehovah,
N’oluvannyuma ensimbi ezo baazikwasanga abasajja abaali baweereddwa obuvunaanyizibwa okulabiriranga omulimu ogwakolebwanga ku yeekaalu, bo ne basasulanga abakozi, n’abazimbi abaabulijjo, n’abazimbi b’amayinja, n’abatema amayinja, abo bonna nga baddaabiriza yeekaalu ya Mukama.
12 and to the masons and the stone cutters, and for buying timber and cut stone to repair the breaches of the house of Jehovah, and for all that was laid out for the house to repair it.
Ate era ku ezo ensimbi kwe baagulanga embaawo, n’amayinja amabajje okuddaabiriza yeekaalu ya Mukama n’olwebirala ebyetaagisanga mu kuddaabiriza okwo.
13 But there were not made for the house of Jehovah cups of silver, snuffers, basins, trumpets, any vessels of gold, or vessels of silver, of the money that was brought into the house of Jehovah;
Ensimbi ezaaleetebwanga mu yeekaalu tezaakozesebwanga kukola bensani eza ffeeza, oba ebisalako ebisirinza, oba ebibya, oba amakondeere wadde ekintu kyonna ekya zaabu oba ffeeza ebyabeeranga mu yeekaalu ya Mukama;
14 for they gave that to those who did the work, and repaired therewith the house of Jehovah.
kubanga baazisasulanga abakozi abaali baddaabiriza yeekaalu.
15 Moreover they did not demand an accounting from the men into whose hand they delivered the money to give to those who did the work; for they dealt faithfully.
Era kyali tekyetagisa abasajja be baakwasa ensimbi, okulaga enkozesa y’ensimbi ezo kubanga baakolanga n’obwesigwa.
16 The money for the trespass offerings, and the money for the sin offerings, was not brought into the house of Jehovah: it was the priests'.
Ensimbi ezaavanga mu biweebwayo eby’okulumiriza n’ebiweebwayo olw’ekibi tezaaleetebwanga mu yeekaalu ya Mukama, zaabanga za bakabona.
17 Then Hazael king of Aram went up, and fought against Gath, and took it; and Hazael set his face to go up to Jerusalem.
Mu biro ebyo Kazayeeri kabaka w’e Busuuli n’alumba ekibuga ky’e Gaasi, n’akiwamba, n’oluvannyuma n’atandika okulumba n’e Yerusaalemi.
18 Jehoash king of Judah took all the holy things that Jehoshaphat and Jehoram and Ahaziah, his fathers, kings of Judah, had dedicated, and his own holy things, and all the gold that was found in the treasures of the house of Jehovah, and of the king's house, and sent it to Hazael king of Aram: and he went away from Jerusalem.
Naye Yekoyaasi kabaka wa Yuda n’addira ebintu byonna ebyatukuzibwa Yekosafaati, ne Yekolaamu ne Akaziya bajjajjaabe bassekabaka ba Yuda, n’ebirabo bye yali awonze, ne zaabu yonna eyali mu mawanika, n’abiggya mu yeekaalu ya Mukama n’abiweereza Kazayeeri kabaka w’e Busuuli. Oluvannyuma Kazayeeri n’alekayo okulumba Yerusaalemi.
19 Now the rest of the acts of Joash, and all that he did, aren't they written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?
Ebyafaayo ebirala ebyabaawo mu mirembe gya Yekoyaasi, ne bye yakola byonna, tebyawandiikibwa mu kitabo eky’ebyomumirembe gya bassekabaka ba Yuda?
20 His servants arose, and made a conspiracy, and struck Joash at the house of Millo, on the way that goes down to Silla.
Abaami be ne beekobaana, ne bamuttira mu nnyumba ey’e Miiro, ku kkubo eriserengeta e Siiro.
21 For Jozabad the son of Shimeath, and Jehozabad the son of Shomer, his servants, struck him, and he died; and they buried him with his fathers in the City of David: and Amaziah his son reigned in his place.
Abaali mu lukwe olwo baali Yozakali mutabani wa Simeyaasi ne Yekozabadi mutabani wa Someri, era be baamutta. N’afa n’aziikibwa awali bajjajjaabe mu kibuga kya Dawudi. Amaziya mutabani we n’amusikira.
