< 2 Chronicles 15 >

1 The Spirit of God came on Azariah the son of Oded:
Ngun lun God tuku nu facl Azariah wen natul Oded,
2 and he went out to meet Asa, and said to him, "Hear me, Asa, and all Judah and Benjamin. YHWH is with you, while you are with him; and if you seek him, he will be found by you; but if you forsake him, he will forsake you.
ac el som in osun nu sel Tokosra Asa. El pangla nu yorol ac fahk, “Tokosra Asa, ac kowos mwet Judah ac mwet Benjamin nukewa, lohng ma nga ac fahk uh! LEUM GOD El wi kowos ke lusen pacl kowos welul. Kowos fin sokol, El ac lela kowos in konalak. A kowos fin forla lukel, El ac fah ngetla liki kowos.
3 Now for a long time Israel was without the true God, and without a teaching priest, and without law.
In pacl na loeloes se, mwet Israel elos tuh moul sayen God pwaye, ac wangin mwet tol in lotelos, ac wangin pac ma sap yorolos.
4 But when in their distress they turned to YHWH, the God of Israel, and sought him, he was found by them.
Tusruktu ke pacl oasr mwe lokoalok nu selos, na elos forla nu sin LEUM GOD lun Israel. Elos sokol ac elos konalak.
5 In those times there was no peace to him who went out, nor to him who came in; but great troubles were on all the inhabitants of the lands.
In len ingo wangin mwet ku in forot forma ac wangin ma sikyak nu selos, mweyen oasr mwe ongoiya ac lokoalok sikyak in acn nukewa.
6 They were broken in pieces, nation against nation, and city against city; for God troubled them with all adversity.
Kais sie mutunfacl akkeokye mutunfacl saya, ac kais sie siti akkeokye siti saya, mweyen God El sang mwe ongoiya ac mwe asor nu faclos.
7 But you be strong, and do not let your hands be slack; for your work shall be rewarded."
Tusruktu kowos in ku na ac tia fuhleak. Ac fah oasr lacnen orekma lowos.”
8 When Asa heard these words, and the prophecy of Azariah the son of Oded the prophet, he took courage and put away the abominations out of all the land of Judah and Benjamin and out of the cities which he had taken from the hill country of Ephraim; and he renewed the altar of YHWH, that was before the vestibule of YHWH.
Ke Asa el lohng kas in palu ma Azariah wen natul Oded el fahk inge, kui nunkal. Na el kunausla ma sruloala nukewa in acn Judah ac Benjamin, oayapa ma sruloala nukewa in siti ma el sruokya infulan eol Ephraim. El oayapa aksasuyela loang lun LEUM GOD ma oan in kalkal in Tempul.
9 He gathered all Judah and Benjamin, and those who lived with them out of Ephraim and Manasseh, and out of Simeon: for they fell to him out of Israel in abundance, when they saw that YHWH his God was with him.
Pukanten mwet welulang Asa su tuku Ephraim, Manasseh, ac Simeon me ac inge elos muta in tokosrai lal, mweyen elos liye lah LEUM GOD El welul. Asa el pangoneni mwet inge nukewa, wi mwet Judah ac mwet Benjamin.
10 So they gathered themselves together at Jerusalem in the third month, in the fifteenth year of the reign of Asa.
Elos tukeni nu Jerusalem in malem se aktolu in yac aksingoul limekosr ma Asa el tokosra.
11 They sacrificed to YHWH in that day, of the spoil which they had brought, seven hundred head of cattle and seven thousand sheep.
In len sac elos orek kisa nu sin LEUM GOD ke ma wap ma elos use ke elos foloko liki mweun. Oasr cow itfoko ac tausin itkosr ke sheep.
12 They entered into the covenant to seek YHWH, the God of their fathers, with all their heart and with all their soul;
Elos orala sie wulela ac elos insesela kac mu elos ac alu na nu sin LEUM GOD lun papa tumalos ke insialos ac ngunalos kewa.
13 and that whoever would not seek YHWH, the God of Israel, should be put to death, whether small or great, whether man or woman.
Kutena mwet sin mwet fusr ku mwet matu, mukul ku mutan, su tia alu nu sel, ac fah anwuki.
14 They swore to YHWH with a loud voice, and with shouting, and with trumpets, and with cornets.
Elos orala fulahk ku lalos ke pusra lulap Inen LEUM GOD lah elos ac karinganang na wulela se inge. Na elos sasa ac ukya mwe ukuk.
15 All Judah rejoiced at the oath; for they had sworn with all their heart, and sought him with their whole desire; and he was found of them: and YHWH gave them rest all around.
Mwet Judah nukewa elos engan ke sripen elos tuh orala wulela se inge ke insialos kewa. Elos insewowo in alu nu sin LEUM GOD, ac El insewowo selos ac sang tuh in oasr misla inmasrlolos ac mwet nukewa su muta raunelosla.
16 Also Maacah, the mother of Asa the king, he removed from being queen, because she had made an abominable image for an Asherah; and Asa cut down her image, and made dust of it, and burnt it in the Kidron Valley.
Tokosra Asa el eisla wal lun kasra lukel Maacah, nina matu kial, mweyen el tuh orala sie ma sruloala fohkfok ke god mutan se pangpang Asherah. Asa el pakiya ma sruloala sac ac pakpukiya ac furreak Infahlfal Kidron.
17 But the high places were not taken away out of Israel: nevertheless the heart of Asa was perfect all his days.
Asa el ne tia kunausla nufon nien alu lun mwet pegan in facl sel, tusruktu el oaru na nu sin LEUM GOD in moul lal nufon.
18 He brought into God's house the things that his father had dedicated, and that he himself had dedicated, silver, and gold, and vessels.
Ma nukewa ma Abijah, papa tumal, el tuh kisakunang nu sin God, Asa el likiya nufon in Tempul, weang pac ma orek ke gold ac silver ma el sifacna kisakunang.
19 There was no more war to the five and thirtieth year of the reign of Asa.
Wanginla mweun nwe ke sun yac aktolngoul limekosr in pacl el tokosra.
