< 2 Chronicles 16 >
1 In the thirty-sixth year of the reign of Asa, Baasha king of Israel came up against Judah, and built Ramah, —that he might let none come out or go in, unto Asa king of Judah.
Ie an-taom-pifehea’ i Asa faha-telopolo eneñ’ amby, le nionjo hiatreatre am’Iehodà t’i Baasà mpanjaka’ Israele, le namboare’e ty Ramà, hisebañe ze te hiavotse ndra himoak’ mb’amy Asa mpanjaka’ Iehodà.
2 So Asa brought forth silver and gold, out of the treasuries of the house of Yahweh, and the house of the king, —and sent unto Ben-hadad, king of Syria, who dwelt in Damascus, saying:
Aa le nakare’ i Asa ty volafoty naho volamena am-pañajam-bara añ’ anjomba’ Iehovà naho añ’ anjomba’ i mpanjakay vaho nahitri’e mb’ amy Benehadade nte-Arame nimoneñe e Damesèk’ ao, ami’ty hoe:
3 [Let there be] a covenant, between me and thee, as between my father and thy father.—Lo! I have sent thee silver and gold, go break thy covenant with Baasha king of Israel, that he may go up from me.
Eo ty fañina amako naho ama’o, manahake i tañivon-drae’o naho an-draekoy, Ingo te nañitrifako volafoty naho volamena; Mañaveloa, apitsoho ty fañina’o amy Baasà mpanjaka’ Israele, hisitaha’e amako.
4 And Ben-hadad hearkened unto King Asa, and sent the chieftains of the forces which he had, against the cities of Israel, and smote Ijon and Dan, and Abel-maim, —and all the storehouses of the cities of Naphtali.
Aa le hinao’ i Benehadade t’i Asa mpanjaka naho nirahe’e haname o rova’ Israeleo o mpifehen-dahindefo’eo; le linafa’ iareo t’Iione naho i Dane naho i Abelmaime naho ze fonga rovam-pañaja’ i Naftaly.
5 And it cams to pass, when Baasha heard it, he left off building Ramah, —and let his work cease.
Aa ie jinanji’ i Baasa izay, le najihe’e ty fañamboarañe i Ramà vaho nado’e i nitoloña’ey.
6 And, Asa the king, took all Judah, and they carried away the stones of Ramah, and the timbers thereof, which Baasha had used in building, —and he built therewith, Geba and Mizpah.
Aa le nente’ i Asa t’Iehodà iaby hitaoñe o vato’ i Ramào naho o boda’e namboare’ i Baasao le namboatse i Gebà naho i Mitspà.
7 And, at that time, came Hanani the seer, unto Asa the king of Judah, —and said unto him, Because thou hast leaned upon the king of Syria, and hast not leaned upon Yahweh thy God, for this cause, hath the force of the king of Syria escaped out of thy hand.
Ie amy zay, nimb’ amy Asa mpanjaka’ Iehoda mb’eo t’i Kananý mpioniñe, nanao ty hoe, Kanao niatoa’o ty mpanjaka’ i Arame, le tsy niatoa’o t’Iehovà Andrianañahare’o, le nipolititse am-pità’o ty valobohòm-panjaka’ i Arame.
8 Were not, the Ethiopians and the Lybians, a huge host, with chariots and horsemen exceeding many? yet, because thou didst lean upon Yahweh, he delivered them into thy hand.
Tsy nivalobohòke vasiañeñe reketse sarete naho mpiningitse nivorentsañe hao o nte-Koseo naho o nte-Lobeo? Fe kanao niatoa’o t’Iehovà le nitolora’e am-pità’o.
9 For, as touching Yahweh, [seeing that], his eyes, are ever running to and fro throughout all the earth, to shew himself strong with them who are perfect toward himself, thou hast made thyself foolish over this, —for, from henceforth, there shall be with thee—wars.
Fa mihelañe mb’eo mb’eo an-tane atoy o fihaino’ Iehovào, hiboake ho maozatse amo añ’ampon-troke ama’e. Toe nanoe’o hagegeañe i rahay, hanañ’aly irehe henane zao.
10 Then was Asa angry with the seer, and put him in the house of the stocks, for he was in a rage with him, over this, —and Asa oppressed some of the people, at that time.
Niforoforo amy mpioniñey t’i Asa le nampijoñe’e am-bahorañe ao ami’ty haviñera’e amy rahay. Namorekeke ondaty ka t’i Asa henane zay.
11 But lo! the story of Asa, first and last, there it is, written in the book of the kings of Judah and Israel.
Aa ty amo fitoloña’ i Asao, ty valoha’e ampara’ ty fara’e, ingo te misokitse amo bokem-panjaka’ Iehoda naho Israeleo.
12 And Asa became diseased—in the thirty-ninth year of his reign—in his feet, exceedingly severe, was his disease, —yet, even in his disease, he sought not Yahweh, but unto physicians.
Ie an-taom-pifehea’e faha telopolo sive’ amby, narare am-pandia’e t’i Asa; toe nanjeke mafe i arete’ey; fe amy hasilo’ey, tsy Iehovà ty pinai’e, fa o mpanahao.
13 And Asa slept with his fathers, —yea he died in the forty-first year of his reign;
Aa le nitrao-piròtse aman-droae’e t’i Asa; nivilasy an-taom-pifehea’e fah’ efapolo-raik’ amby.
14 and they buried him in his own stately sepulchre, which he had hewn for himself in the city of David, and laid him on a couch which was full of sweet spices—yea of various kinds, made by the perfumer’s art, —and they burned for him with an exceeding great burning.
Nalente’ iareo an-kibori’e hinali’e ho am-bata’e an-drova’ i Davide ao, le natsalalampa’ iareo amy fandreañe natsafeñe raha mandrifondrifoñe naho karazan’ embok’ ankafankafa nitsenèñe ami’ty hilala’ o mpanao rano mañitseoy; le nanoa’ iareo fañoroañe ra’elahy.
