2 Kings 17
1 In the twelfth year of Ahaz king of Judah, Hoshea the son of Elah began to reign in Samaria over Israel for nine years.
Ní ọdún kejìlá ọba Ahasi ará Juda, Hosea ọmọ Ela jẹ ọba Israẹli ní Samaria, ó sì jẹ fún ọdún mẹ́sàn-án.
2 He did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD, yet not as the kings of Israel who were before him.
Ó sì ṣe búburú ní ojú Olúwa, ṣùgbọ́n kì í ṣe bí i ti ọba Israẹli ẹni tí ó ti wà ṣáájú rẹ̀.
3 Against him came up Shalmaneser king of Assyria; and Hoshea became his servant, and brought him tribute.
Ṣalamaneseri ọba Asiria wá sókè láti mú Hosea, ẹni tí ó ti jẹ fún Ṣalamaneseri ó sì ti san owó òde fún un.
4 The king of Assyria found conspiracy in Hoshea; for he had sent messengers to So king of Egypt, and offered no tribute to the king of Assyria, as he had done year by year: therefore the king of Assyria shut him up, and bound him in prison.
Ṣùgbọ́n ọba Asiria rí i wí pé Hosea jẹ́ ọlọ́tẹ̀, nítorí ó ti rán oníṣẹ́ sọ́dọ̀ ọba Ejibiti, kò sì san owó òde mọ́ fún ọba Asiria, gẹ́gẹ́ bí o ti máa ń ṣe ní ọdọọdún. Nígbà náà ọba Asiria fi agbára mú ún, ó sì fi sínú túbú.
5 Then the king of Assyria came up throughout all the land, and went up to Samaria, and besieged it three years.
Ọba Asiria gòkè wá sí gbogbo ibi ilé náà, ó sì lọ sí Samaria, ó sì dúró tí ì fún ọdún mẹ́ta.
6 In the ninth year of Hoshea the king of Assyria took Samaria, and carried Israel away to Assyria, and placed them in Halah, and on the Habor, the river of Gozan, and in the cities of the Medes.
Ní ọdún kẹsànán ti Hosea, ọba Asiria mú Samaria ó sì kó Israẹli lọ sí Asiria. Ó sì fi wọ́n sílẹ̀ ní Hala, ní Gosani ní etí odò Habori àti ní ìlú àwọn ará Media.
7 It was so, because the children of Israel had sinned against the LORD their God, who brought them up out of the land of Egypt from under the hand of Pharaoh king of Egypt, and had feared other gods,
Gbogbo eléyìí ṣẹlẹ̀ nítorí àwọn ọmọ Israẹli ti dẹ́ṣẹ̀ sí Olúwa Ọlọ́run wọn, ẹni tí ó mú wọn jáde ní Ejibiti lábẹ́ agbára Farao ọba Ejibiti. Wọ́n sin ọlọ́run mìíràn,
8 and walked in the statutes of the nations, whom the LORD cast out from before the children of Israel, and of the kings of Israel, which they made.
wọn si tẹ̀lé ìwà orílẹ̀-èdè tí Olúwa ti gbá kúrò níwájú wọn gẹ́gẹ́ bí ìwà ti ọba Israẹli tí ó ti paláṣẹ.
9 The children of Israel did secretly things that were not right against the LORD their God: and they built them high places in all their cities, from the tower of the watchmen to the fortified city;
Àwọn ọmọ Israẹli ṣe ohun ìríra sí Olúwa Ọlọ́run wọn kọ́ láti ilé ìṣọ́ sí ìlú tí a dáàbò bò, wọ́n kọ́ ilé gíga fún ara wọn ní gbogbo ìlú wọn.
10 and they set them up pillars and Asherim on every high hill, and under every green tree;
Wọ́n sì gbé àwọn òkúta tí a yà sọ́tọ̀ sókè àti ère òrìṣà Aṣerah lórí gbogbo igi tútù.
11 and there they burnt incense in all the high places, as did the nations whom the LORD carried away before them; and they worked wicked things to provoke the LORD to anger;
Ní gbogbo ibi gíga, wọ́n sun tùràrí gẹ́gẹ́ bí orílẹ̀-èdè tí Olúwa ti lé jáde níwájú wọn. Wọ́n ṣe ohun búburú tí ó rú ìbínú Olúwa sókè.
12 and they served idols, of which the LORD had said to them, "You shall not do this thing."
Wọ́n sìn òrìṣà, èyí tí Olúwa ti sọ pé, “Ẹ kò gbọdọ̀ ṣe èyí.”
13 Yet the LORD testified to Israel, and to Judah, by every prophet, and every seer, saying, "Turn from your evil ways, and keep my commandments and my statutes, according to all the law which I commanded your fathers, and which I sent to you by my servants the prophets."
Olúwa kìlọ̀ fún Israẹli àti Juda nípa gbogbo àwọn wòlíì wọn àti aríran: “Ẹ yípadà kúrò ní ọ̀nà búburú yín. Kí ẹ ṣe òfin mi àti ìlànà mi, ní ìbámu pẹ̀lú gbogbo òfin tí Èmi paláṣẹ fún àwọn baba yín láti tẹ̀lé àti èyí tí mo rán sí i yín nípa ìránṣẹ́ àwọn wòlíì mi.”
14 Notwithstanding, they would not listen, but hardened their neck, like the neck of their fathers, who did not believe in the LORD their God.
Ṣùgbọ́n wọn kò ní gbọ́, wọ́n sì ṣe gẹ́gẹ́ bí ọlọ́rùn líle gẹ́gẹ́ bí i ti baba wọn, ẹni tí kò gbà Olúwa Ọlọ́run wọn gbọ́.
15 They rejected his statutes, and his covenant that he made with their fathers, and his testimonies which he testified to them; and they followed vanity, and became vain, and followed the nations that were around them, concerning whom the LORD had commanded them that they should not do like them.
Wọ́n kọ̀ ìlànà rẹ̀ àti májẹ̀mú tí ó ti ṣe pẹ̀lú baba wọn àti ìkìlọ̀ tí ó ti fi fún wọn. Wọ́n tẹ̀lé òrìṣà aláìníláárí, àwọn fún rara wọn sì jẹ́ aláìníláárí. Wọ́n tẹ̀lé orílẹ̀-èdè tí ó yí wọn ká bí ó tilẹ̀ jẹ́ pé Olúwa ti kìlọ̀ fún wọn pé, “Má ṣe ṣe gẹ́gẹ́ bí wọn tí ń ṣe,” wọ́n sì ṣe ohun tí Olúwa ti kà léèwọ̀ fún wọn láti ṣe.
16 They forsook all the commandments of the LORD their God, and made them molten images, even two calves, and made an Asherah, and worshiped all the host of heaven, and served Baal.
Wọ́n kọ̀ gbogbo òfin Olúwa Ọlọ́run wọn sílẹ̀, wọ́n sì ṣe òrìṣà méjì fún ara wọn, wọ́n sì gbẹ́ ẹ ọ̀kan ní ère ẹgbọrọ màlúù, àti ọ̀kan ní ère òrìṣà Aṣerah. Wọ́n sì tẹrí wọn ba sí gbogbo ogun ọ̀run, wọ́n sì sin Baali.
17 They caused their sons and their daughters to pass through the fire, practiced divination and sorcery, and sold themselves to do that which was evil in the sight of the LORD, to provoke him to anger.
Wọ́n sì fi àwọn ọmọkùnrin àti àwọn ọmọbìnrin wọn rú ẹbọ nínú iná. Wọ́n sì ń fọ àfọ̀ṣẹ, wọ́n sì ń ṣe àlúpàyídà wọ́n sì ta ara wọn láti ṣe ohun búburú níwájú Olúwa, wọ́n sì mú un bínú.
18 Therefore the LORD was very angry with Israel, and removed them out of his sight: there was none left but the tribe of Judah only.
Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni Olúwa sì bínú gidigidi pẹ̀lú Israẹli ó sì mú wọn kúrò níwájú rẹ̀. Ẹ̀yà Juda nìkan ṣoṣo ni ó kù,
19 Also Judah did not keep the commandments of the LORD their God, but walked in the statutes of Israel which they made.
àti pẹ̀lú, Juda kò pa òfin Olúwa Ọlọ́run wọn mọ́. Wọ́n tẹ̀lé ìhùwàsí àwọn Israẹli tí wọ́n ṣe.
20 The LORD rejected all the descendants of Israel, and afflicted them, and delivered them into the hand of plunderers, until he had cast them out of his sight.
Nítorí náà Olúwa kọ gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn Israẹli; ó sì jẹ wọ́n ní yà. Ó sì fi wọ́n lé ọwọ́ àwọn olè títí tí ó fi ta wọ́n nù kúrò níwájú rẹ̀.
21 For he tore Israel from the house of David; and they made Jeroboam the son of Nebat king: and Jeroboam drove Israel from following the LORD, and made them sin a great sin.
Nígbà tí ó ta Israẹli kúrò láti ìdílé Dafidi, wọ́n sì mú Jeroboamu ọmọ Nebati jẹ ọba wọn. Jeroboamu sì mú kí àwọn ọmọ Israẹli yípadà kúrò ní títẹ̀lé Olúwa, ó sí mú kí wọn dẹ́ṣẹ̀ ńlá.
22 The children of Israel walked in all the sins of Jeroboam which he did; they did not depart from them;
Àwọn ọmọ Israẹli forítì í nínú gbogbo ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ Jeroboamu kò sì yí padà kúrò lọ́dọ̀ wọn,
23 until the LORD removed Israel out of his sight, as he spoke by all his servants the prophets. So Israel was carried away out of their own land to Assyria to this day.
títí tí Olúwa fi mú wọn kúrò níwájú rẹ̀, gẹ́gẹ́ bí ó ti paláṣẹ láti ọ̀dọ̀ àwọn ìránṣẹ́ wòlíì. Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni a kó gbogbo ènìyàn Israẹli kúrò ní ilẹ̀ wọn lọ sí ìgbèkùn ni Asiria, títí di òní yìí.
24 The king of Assyria brought men from Babylon, and from Cuthah, and from Avva, and from Hamath and Sepharvaim, and placed them in the cities of Samaria instead of the children of Israel; and they possessed Samaria, and lived in the cities of it.
Ọba Asiria mú àwọn ènìyàn láti Babeli, Kuta, Afa, Hamati àti Sefarfaimi, wọ́n sì fi wọ́n sínú ìlú Samaria láti rọ́pò àwọn ọmọ Israẹli. Wọ́n sì ń gbé ní ìlú náà.
25 So it was, at the beginning of their dwelling there, that they did not fear the LORD: therefore the LORD sent lions among them, which killed some of them.
Nígbà tí wọ́n gbé bẹ̀ ní àkọ́kọ́, wọn kò sì bẹ̀rù Olúwa, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ó rán kìnnìún sí àárín wọn. Wọ́n sì pa nínú wọn.
26 Therefore they spoke to the king of Assyria, saying, "The nations which you have carried away, and placed in the cities of Samaria, do not know the law of the god of the land. Therefore he has sent lions among them, and look, they kill them, because they do not know the law of the god of the land."
Wọ́n sì sọ fún ọba Asiria pé, “Àwọn ènìyàn tí ìwọ lé kúrò tí o sì fi sínú ìlú Samaria kò mọ ohun tí ọlọ́run ìlú náà béèrè. Ó sì ti rán kìnnìún sí àárín wọn, tí ó sì ń pa wọ́n run, nítorí ènìyàn wọn kò mọ ohun tí ó béèrè.”
27 Then the king of Assyria commanded, saying, "Carry there one of the priests whom you brought from there; and let him go and live there, and let him teach them the law of the god of the land."
Nígbà náà ọba Asiria pàṣẹ yìí wí pé, “Mú ọ̀kan lára àwọn àlùfáà tí ó mú láti Samaria lọ padà gbé níbẹ̀ kí ó sì kọ́ àwọn ènìyàn ní, ohun tí ọlọ́run ilẹ̀ náà béèrè.”
28 So one of the priests whom they had carried away from Samaria came and lived in Bethel, and taught them how they should fear the LORD.
Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ọ̀kan lára àwọn àlùfáà tí ó ti kúrò ní Samaria wá gbé ní Beteli ó sì kọ́ wọn bí a ti ń sin Olúwa.
29 However every nation made gods of their own, and put them in the houses of the high places which the Samaritans had made, every nation in their cities in which they lived.
Bí ó tilẹ̀ rí bẹ́ẹ̀, olúkúlùkù orílẹ̀-èdè ṣe òrìṣà tirẹ̀ ní gbogbo ìlú níbi tí wọ́n gbé wà, wọ́n sì gbé wọn nínú ilé òrìṣà àti àwọn ènìyàn Samaria ó sì ṣe wọ́n sí ibi gíga wọ̀n-ọn-nì.
30 The men of Babylon made Succoth Benoth, and the men of Cuth made Nergal, and the men of Hamath made Ashima,
Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni àwọn ọkùnrin láti Babeli ṣe àgọ́ àwọn wúńdíá, àwọn ènìyàn Kuti ṣe òrìṣà Nergali, àti àwọn ènìyàn Hamati ṣe ti Aṣima;
31 and the Avvites made Nibhaz and Tartak; and the Sepharvites burnt their children in the fire to Adrammelech and Anammelech, the gods of Sepharvaim.
àti àwọn ará Afa ṣe Nibhasi àti Tartaki, àti àwọn ará Sefarfaimi sun àwọn ọmọ wọn níná gẹ́gẹ́ bí ẹbọ sí Adrameleki àti Anameleki, àwọn òrìṣà Sefarfaimi.
32 And they worshiped the LORD, yet they established their abominations in the houses of the high places which they made in Samaria, each nation in the city in which they dwelt. And they worshiped the LORD, yet appointed from among themselves priests of the high places, who sacrificed for them in the houses of the high places.
Wọ́n sin Olúwa, ṣùgbọ́n wọ́n sì tún yan gbogbo ẹgbẹ́ tí ènìyàn wọn láti ṣe iṣẹ́ oyè fún wọn gẹ́gẹ́ bí àlùfáà ní ibi gíga.
33 And they worshiped the LORD, yet served their own gods, after the ways of the nations from among whom they had been carried away.
Wọ́n sin Olúwa ṣùgbọ́n wọ́n sin òrìṣà wọn ní ìṣọ̀kan pẹ̀lú àṣà orílẹ̀-èdè wọn láti ibi tí wọ́n ti gbé wọn wá.
34 To this day they do what they did before: they do not fear the LORD, neither do they follow their statutes, or their ordinances, or the law or the commandment which the LORD commanded the descendants of Jacob, whom he named Israel;
Láti ìgbà náà wá àwọn àlùfáà wọn ṣe bí ti àtẹ̀yìnwá. Wọn kò sin Olúwa tàbí kí wọ́n fi ara mọ́ ìlànà àti àṣẹ àti òfin tí Olúwa fi fún ìránṣẹ́ Jakọbu, tí wọ́n pe orúkọ rẹ̀ ní Israẹli.
35 with whom the LORD had made a covenant, and commanded them, saying, "You shall not fear other gods, nor bow yourselves to them, nor serve them, nor sacrifice to them;
Nígbà tí Olúwa ṣe májẹ̀mú pẹ̀lú àwọn ọmọ Israẹli ó pàṣẹ fún wọn pé, “Ẹ má ṣe sin òrìṣà mìíràn tàbí tẹríba fún wọn, sìn wọ́n tàbí kí ẹ rú ẹbọ sí wọn.
36 but you shall fear the LORD, who brought you up out of the land of Egypt with great power and with an outstretched arm, and you shall bow yourselves to him, and you shall sacrifice to him.
Ṣùgbọ́n Olúwa, ẹni tí ó mú yín gòkè jáde wá láti ilẹ̀ Ejibiti pẹ̀lú agbára ńlá àti nínà apá, òun ni ẹni náà tí ó yẹ kí ẹ sìn. Òun ni ẹni tí ó yẹ kí ẹ tẹríba fún àti sí òun ni kí ẹ rú ẹbọ fún.
37 The statutes and the ordinances, and the law and the commandment, which he wrote for you, you shall observe to do forevermore. You shall not fear other gods.
Ó yẹ kí ẹ̀yin kí ó máa kíyèsi ara yín gidigidi láti pa ìlànà àti àṣẹ, àti òfin tí ó kọ fún un yín mọ́. Ẹ má ṣe sin ọlọ́run mìíràn.

Ẹ má ṣe gbàgbé májẹ̀mú tí mo ti ṣe pẹ̀lú yín mọ́ àti kí ẹ má sin ọlọ́run mìíràn.
39 But you shall fear the LORD your God; and he will deliver you out of the hand of all your enemies."
Kúkú sin Olúwa Ọlọ́run rẹ; Òun ni ẹni náà tí yóò gbà yín kúrò lọ́wọ́ gbogbo àwọn ọ̀tá a yín.”
40 However they did not listen, but they did what they did before.
Wọn kò ní gbọ́, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni, wọ́n sì ń ṣe iṣẹ́ wọ́n ti àtijọ́.
41 So these nations feared the LORD, and served their engraved images. Their children likewise, and their children's children, as their fathers did, so they do to this day.
