2 Kings 15
1 In the twenty and seventh year of Jeroboam king of Israel began Azariah son of Amaziah king of Judah to reign.
Mʼchaka cha 27 cha Yeroboamu mfumu ya Israeli, Azariya mwana wa Amaziya mfumu ya Yuda anayamba kulamulira.
2 Sixteen years old was he when he began to reign; and he reigned two and fifty years in Jerusalem: and his mother’s name was Jecoliah of Jerusalem.
Iye anakhala mfumu ali ndi zaka 16 ndipo analamulira mu Yerusalemu zaka 52. Amayi ake anali Yekoliya wa ku Yerusalemu.
3 And he did that which was right in the eyes of the LORD, according to all that his father Amaziah had done.
Iyeyo anachita zabwino pamaso pa Yehova, monga momwe anachitira Amaziya abambo ake.
4 Howbeit the high places were not taken away: the people still sacrificed and burnt incense in the high places.
Komabe malo opembedzerako mafano sanawachotse ndipo anthu anapitirizabe kupereka nsembe ndi kufukiza lubani kumeneko.
5 And the LORD smote the king, so that he was a leper unto the day of his death, and dwelt in a several house. And Jotham the king’s son was over the household, judging the people of the land:
Ndipo Yehova analanga mfumu ndi nthenda ya khate mpaka tsiku limene inamwalira. Tsono mfumuyo inkakhala mʼnyumba yakeyake yapadera. Mwana wake Yotamu ndiye amene ankayangʼanira nyumba ya mfumu ndiponso ndiye amene ankalamulira anthu mʼdzikomo.
6 Now the rest of the acts of Azariah, and all that he did, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?
Ntchito zina za Azariya ndi zonse zimene anachita, kodi sizinalembedwe mʼbuku la mbiri ya mafumu a Yuda?
7 And Azariah slept with his fathers; and they buried him with his fathers in the city of David: and Jotham his son reigned in his stead.
Azariya anamwalira ndipo anayikidwa mʼmanda pamodzi ndi makolo ake mu Mzinda wa Davide. Ndipo Yotamu mwana wake analowa ufumu mʼmalo mwake.
8 In the thirty and eighth year of Azariah king of Judah did Zechariah the son of Jeroboam reign over Israel in Samaria six months.
Mʼchaka cha 38 cha Azariya mfumu ya Yuda, Zekariya mwana wa Yeroboamu anakhala mfumu ya Israeli ku Samariya ndipo analamulira miyezi isanu ndi umodzi.
9 And he did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD, as his fathers had done: he departed not from the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, wherewith he made Israel to sin.
Ndipo iye anachita zoyipa pamaso pa Yehova monga anachitira makolo ake. Iye sanaleke machimo a Yeroboamu mwana wa Nebati, amene anachimwitsa nawo Israeli.
10 And Shallum the son of Jabesh conspired against him, and smote him before the people, and slew him, and reigned in his stead.
Salumu mwana wa Yabesi anachitira chiwembu Zekariya. Anamukantha anthu akuona, namupha, ndipo analowa ufumu mʼmalo mwake.
11 Now the rest of the acts of Zechariah, behold, they are written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel.
Ntchito zina za Zekariya, zinalembedwa mʼbuku la mbiri ya mafumu a Israeli.
12 This was the word of the LORD which he spake unto Jehu, saying, Thy sons to the fourth generation shall sit upon the throne of Israel. And so it came to pass.
Awa ndiwo mawu a Yehova amene anayankhula kwa Yehu kuti, “Ana ako adzalamulira Israeli mpaka mʼbado wachinayi.”
13 Shallum the son of Jabesh began to reign in the nine and thirtieth year of Uzziah king of Judah; and he reigned the space of a month in Samaria.
Salumu mwana wa Yabesi anakhala mfumu mʼchaka cha 39 cha ulamuliro wa Uziya mfumu ya Yuda ndipo analamulira mu Samariya mwezi umodzi.
14 And Menahem the son of Gadi went up from Tirzah, and came to Samaria, and smote Shallum the son of Jabesh in Samaria, and slew him, and reigned in his stead.
Ndipo Menahemu mwana wa Gadi anachoka ku Tiriza napita ku Samariya nakantha Salumu mwana wa Yabesi ku Samariya, namupha ndipo iye analowa ufumu mʼmalo mwake.
15 Now the rest of the acts of Shallum, and his conspiracy which he made, behold, they are written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel.
Ntchito zina za Salumu ndiponso za chiwembu chimene anachita, zinalembedwa mʼbuku la mbiri ya mafumu a Israeli.
16 Then Menahem smote Tiphsah, and all that were therein, and the borders thereof, from Tirzah: because they opened not to him, therefore he smote it; and all the women therein that were with child he ripped up.
Nthawi imeneyo Menahemu, kuchokera ku Tiriza, anakathira nkhondo mzinda wa Tipisa ndi anthu onse amene anali mʼmenemo ndi dera lonse lozungulira chifukwa iwo anakana kutsekula zipata zawo. Iye anatenga katundu yense mu mzinda wa Tipisa ndi kutumbula akazi onse oyembekezera.
17 In the nine and thirtieth year of Azariah king of Judah began Menahem the son of Gadi to reign over Israel, [and reigned] ten years in Samaria.
Mʼchaka cha 39 cha Azariya mfumu ya Yuda, Menahemu mwana wa Gadi anakhala mfumu ya Israeli ndipo analamulira mu Samariya zaka khumi.
18 And he did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD: he departed not all his days from the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, wherewith he made Israel to sin.
Iye anachita zoyipa pamaso pa Yehova. Nthawi yonse ya ulamuliro wake sanasiye machimo a Yeroboamu mwana wa Nebati, amene anachimwitsa nawo Israeli.
19 There came against the land Pul the king of Assyria; and Menahem gave Pul a thousand talents of silver, that his hand might be with him to confirm the kingdom in his hand.
Tsono Puli mfumu ya ku Asiriya inadzathira nkhondo dzikolo ndipo Menahemu anapatsa Puliyo makilogalamu 34,000 a siliva kuti amuthandize ndi kulimbikitsa ufumu wake.
20 And Menahem exacted the money of Israel, even of all the mighty men of wealth, of each man fifty shekels of silver, to give to the king of Assyria. So the king of Assyria turned back, and stayed not there in the land.
Menahemu anapeza ndalamazo kudzera mu msonkho umene ankakhometsa Aisraeli. Munthu aliyense wachuma ankapereka masekeli a siliva makumi asanu kwa mfumu ya ku Asiriya. Choncho mfumu ya ku Asiriya inabwerera ndipo sinakhalenso mʼdzikomo.
21 Now the rest of the acts of Menahem, and all that he did, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?
Ntchito zina za Menahemu ndi zonse zimene anachita, kodi sizinalembedwe mʼbuku la mbiri ya mafumu a Israeli?
22 And Menahem slept with his fathers; and Pekahiah his son reigned in his stead.
Menahemu anamwalira ndipo anayikidwa mʼmanda pamodzi ndi makolo ake. Ndipo Pekahiya mwana wake analowa ufumu mʼmalo mwake.
23 In the fiftieth year of Azariah king of Judah Pekahiah the son of Menahem began to reign over Israel in Samaria, [and reigned] two years.
Mʼchaka cha makumi asanu a Azariya mfumu ya Yuda, Pekahiya mwana wa Menahemu anakhala mfumu ya Israeli mu Samariya ndipo analamulira zaka ziwiri.
24 And he did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD: he departed not from the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, wherewith he made Israel to sin.
Pekahiya anachita zoyipa pamaso pa Yehova. Iye sanaleke machimo a Yeroboamu mwana wa Nebati, omwe anachimwitsa nawo Israeli.
25 And Pekah the son of Remaliah, his captain, conspired against him, and smote him in Samaria, in the castle of the king’s house, with Argob and Arieh; and with him were fifty men of the Gileadites: and he slew him, and reigned in his stead.
Ndipo Peka mwana wa Remaliya, mtsogoleri wake wa ankhondo, anamuchita chiwembu. Iye pamodzi ndi anthu makumi asanu a ku Giliyadi anapha Pekahiya pamodzi ndi Arigobu ndi Ariyeli mʼchipinda choteteza nyumba ya mfumu mu Samariya. Kotero Peka anapha Pekahiya ndipo analowa ufumu mʼmalo mwake.
26 Now the rest of the acts of Pekahiah, and all that he did, behold, they are written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel.
Ntchito zina za Pekahiya ndi zonse zimene anachita zinalembedwa mʼbuku la mbiri ya mafumu a Israeli.
27 In the two and fiftieth year of Azariah king of Judah Pekah the son of Remaliah began to reign over Israel in Samaria, [and reigned] twenty years.
Mʼchaka cha 52 cha Azariya mfumu ya Yuda, Peka mwana wa Remaliya anakhala mfumu ya Israeli ku Samariya ndipo analamulira zaka makumi awiri.
28 And he did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD: he departed not from the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, wherewith he made Israel to sin.
Iye anachita zoyipa pamaso pa Yehova. Sanaleke machimo a Yeroboamu mwana wa Nebati, amene anachimwitsa nawo Israeli.
29 In the days of Pekah king of Israel came Tiglath-pileser king of Assyria, and took Ijon, and Abel-beth-maacah, and Janoah, and Kedesh, and Hazor, and Gilead, and Galilee, all the land of Naphtali; and he carried them captive to Assyria.
Nthawi ya Peka mfumu ya Israeli, Tigilati-Pileseri mfumu ya ku Asiriya anabwera ndi kudzalanda Iyoni, Abeli-Beti-Maaka, Yanowa, Kedesi ndi Hazori. Mfumu ya ku Asiriya inatenga Giliyadi ndi Galileya, kuphatikizanso madera onse a Nafutali ndipo anatumiza Aisraeli ku Asiriya.
30 And Hoshea the son of Elah made a conspiracy against Pekah the son of Remaliah, and smote him, and slew him, and reigned in his stead, in the twentieth year of Jotham the son of Uzziah.
Kenaka Hoseya mwana wa Ela anachitira chiwembu Peka mwana wa Remaliya. Anamukantha ndi kumupha ndipo anakhala mfumu mʼmalo mwake mʼchaka makumi awiri cha Yotamu mwana wa Uziya.
31 Now the rest of the acts of Pekah, and all that he did, behold, they are written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel.
Ntchito zina za Peka ndi zonse zimene anachita, kodi sizinalembedwe mʼbuku la mbiri ya mafumu a Israeli?
32 In the second year of Pekah the son of Remaliah king of Israel began Jotham the son of Uzziah king of Judah to reign.
Mʼchaka chachiwiri cha Peka mwana wa Remaliya mfumu ya Israeli, Yotamu mwana wa Uziya mfumu ya Yuda anayamba kulamulira.
33 Five and twenty years old was he when he began to reign; and he reigned sixteen years in Jerusalem: and his mother’s name was Jerusha the daughter of Zadok.
Iye anakhala mfumu ali ndi zaka 25 ndipo analamulira mu Yerusalemu zaka 16. Amayi ake anali Yerusa mwana wa Zadoki.
34 And he did that which was right in the eyes of the LORD: he did according to all that his father Uzziah had done.
Iye anachita zabwino pamaso pa Yehova monga anachitira Uziya abambo ake.
35 Howbeit the high places were not taken away: the people still sacrificed and burned incense in the high places. He built the upper gate of the house of the LORD.
Komabe malo opembedzera mafano sanawachotse ndipo anthu anapitiriza kupereka nsembe ndi kufukiza lubani kumeneko.
36 Now the rest of the acts of Jotham, and all that he did, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?
Ntchito zina za Yotamu ndi zonse zimene anachita, kodi sizinalembedwe mʼbuku la mbiri ya mafumu a Yuda?
37 In those days the LORD began to send against Judah Rezin the king of Syria, and Pekah the son of Remaliah.
(Nthawi imeneyo, Yehova anayamba kumatuma Rezini mfumu ya Aaramu ndi Peka mwana wa Remaliya kudzamenyana ndi Yuda).
38 And Jotham slept with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers in the city of David his father: and Ahaz his son reigned in his stead.
Yotamu anamwalira ndipo anayikidwa mʼmanda pamodzi ndi makolo ake mu Mzinda wa Davide abambo ake. Ndipo Ahazi mwana wake analowa ufumu mʼmalo mwake.
