< 2 Chronicles 25 >

1 Twenty-five years old, was Amaziah, when he began to reign, and, twenty-nine years, reigned he in Jerusalem, —and, the name of his mother, was Jehoaddan, of Jerusalem.
Dimy amby roa-polo taona Amazia, fony izy vao nanjaka, ary sivy amby roa-polo taona no nanjakany tany Jerosalema. Ary ny anaran-dreniny dia Joadana, avy any Jerosalema.
2 And he did that which was right in the eyes of Yahweh, —only not with a whole heart.
Ary nanao izay mahitsy eo imason’ i Jehovah izy, nefa tsy dia tamin’ ny fony rehetra.
3 And it came to pass, when the kingdom was confirmed unto him, that he slew his servants who had smitten the king his father;
Ary nony tafapetraka tsara tamin’ ny fanjakany izy, dia novonoiny ireo mpanompony izay namono ny mpanjaka rainy.
4 but, their sons, he put not to death, —but as it is written in the law—in the book of Moses—how that Yahweh commanded, saying-Fathers, shall not die for, sons, and Sons, shall not die, for, fathers, but Each man, for his own sin, shall die.
Nefa ny zanak’ ireo namono dia tsy mba novonoiny, fa nataony araka izay voasoratra ao amin’ ny bokin’ ny lalàna, dia ao amin’ ny bokin’ i Mosesy, izay nandidian’ i Jehovah hoe: Ny ray tsy hatao maty amin’ ny ataon’ ny zanany, ary ny zanaka tsy hatao maty amin’ ny ataon’ ny rainy, fa samy ho faty amin’ ny fahotany avy ny olona.
5 And Amaziah gathered Judah together, and appointed them by their ancestral houses, as rulers of thousands and as rulers of hundreds, for all Judah and Benjamin, —and he numbered them, from twenty years old and upwards, and found them three hundred thousand choice men, able to go forth to war, who could grasp spear and shield.
Ary novorin’ i Amazia ny Joda, ka nalahany araka ny fianakaviany avy, dia araka ny mpifehy arivo sy ny mpifehy zato avy amin’ ny Joda sy ny Benjamina rehetra: dia nisainy ny hatramin’ ny roa-polo taona no ho miakatra, ka olona telo hetsy voafantina no hitany, izay azo nalefa hanafika sady nahatan-defona sy ampinga lehibe.
6 And he hired out of Israel, a hundred thousand heroes of valour, for a hundred talents of silver.
Ary nisy lehilahy mahery iray hetsy tamin’ ny Isiraely nokaramainy talenta volafotsy zato.
7 But, a man of God, came unto him, saying, O king! let not the host of Israel come with thee, —for Yahweh is not with Israel, [with] any of the sons of Ephraim.
Nefa nisy lehilahin’ Andriamanitra tonga tao aminy ka nanao hoe: Ry mpanjaka, aza avela hanaraka anao ny miaramilan’ ny Isiraely; fa tsy omban’ i Jehovah ny Isiraely, dia ny taranak’ i Efraima rehetra.
8 But, if thou art going, do, be strong for the battle, —God will cause thee to fall before the enemy, for there is strength in God, to help or to cause to fall.
Fa mandehana ihany ianao, ka manaova, ary mahereza amin’ ny ady; fa hataon’ Andriamanitra lavo eo anoloan’ ny fahavalo ianao; fa Andriamanitra no mahay mamonjy sy mampahalavo.
9 And Amaziah said unto the man of God, What then shall be done as to the hundred talents, which I have given to the company of Israel? Then said the man of God, Yahweh is able to give thee much more than this.
Fa hoy Amazia tamin’ ilay lehilahin’ Andriamanitra: Ka hataontsika ahoana ny amin’ ny talenta zato nomeko ny miaramilan’ ny Isiraely? Asy hoy ilay lehilahin’ Andriamanitra taminy: Jehovah mahay manome anao mihoatra lavitra noho izany.
10 So Amaziah separated them, [appointing] unto the company which had come unto him out of Ephraim, to depart unto their own place, —wherefore their anger was greatly kindled against Judah, so they returned to their own place, in a heat of anger.
Dia navahan’ i Amazia ireo miaramila tonga tao aminy avy tamin’ ny Efraima ireo mba hody indray; ary nirehitra mafy ny fahatezeran’ ireo tamin’ ny Joda, dia lasa nody izy sady tezitra indrindra.
11 And, Amaziah, took courage, and led forth his people, and went to the valley of salt, —and smote of the sons of Seir, ten thousand;
Ary Amazia nitombo hery, dia nitarika ny vahoakany ka nankany amin’ ny Lohasahan-tsira, ary nahafaty iray alina tamin’ ny taranak’ i Seïra izy.
12 and the sons of Judah took captive, ten thousand alive, and brought to the top of the crag, —and cast them down from the top of the crag, and, all of them, were torn asunder.
Ary ny iray alina sisa nataon’ ny taranak’ i Joda sambo-belona, dia nentiny teo an-tampon’ ny hantsam-bato ary navariny teo, ka montsamontsana izy rehetra.
13 But, as for the sons of the company which Amaziah sent back from going with him to the war, they spread themselves out against the cities of Judah, from Samaria, even unto Beth-horon, —and smote of them three thousand, and took great plunder.
Fa ireo miaramila izay nampodin’ i Amazia tsy hiara-manafika aminy dia nihahakahaka teny an-tanànan’ ny Joda hatrany Samaria ka hatrany Beti-horona ka nahafaty olona telo arivo tany sady nahazo babo betsaka.
14 And so it was, after Amaziah came in from smiting the Edomites, that he brought in the gods of the sons of Seir, and set them up for himself, as gods, —and, before them, used he to bow himself down, and, unto them, used he to burn a perfume.
Ary Amazia, nony niverina avy nanafika ny Edomita, dia nitondra ny andriamanitry ny taranak’ i Seïra ka nanangana azy ho andriamaniny; ary niankohoka teo anatrehany izy sady nandoro ditin-kazo manitra ho azy.
15 Then was kindled the anger of Yahweh, against Amaziah, —and he sent unto him a prophet, and said unto him, Wherefore hast thou sought the gods of the people, which delivered not their own people out of thy hand?
Dia nirehitra tamin’ Amazia ny fahatezeran’ i Jehovah, ka naniraka mpaminany anankiray ho any aminy Izy hanontany azy, hoe: Nahoana ianao no mitady ny andriamanitry ny firenena, izay tsy naharo ny olony tamin’ ny tananao aza?
16 And it came to pass, as he spake unto him, that he said to him, To be, counselor to the king, have we appointed thee? forbear thou, wherefore should they smite thee? So the prophet forbare, and said—I know that God hath determined to destroy thee, because thou hast done this, and hast not hearkened unto my counsel.
Ary raha niteny taminy izy, dia novaliany hoe: Moa voatendrinay ho mpanolo-tsaina ny mpanjaka va Hianao? Aoka itsy ange, fandrao asian’ ny olona ianao. Dia nitsahatra ilay mpaminany ka nanao hoe: Fantatro fa Andriamanitra mikasa hahafaty anao satria nanao izany ianao ka tsy nihaino ny anatro.
17 Then Amaziah king of Judah took counsel, and sent unto Joash, son of Jehoahaz son of Jehu king of Israel, saying, —Come, let us look one another in the face!
Ary Amazia, mpanjakan’ ny Joda, naka hevitra, dia naniraka tany amin’ i Joasy, zanak’ i Joahaza, zanak’ i Jeho, mpanjakan’ ny Isiraely, izy hanao hoe: Avia, aoka isika hihaona.
18 And Joash king of Israel sent unto Amaziah king of Judah, saying, A thistle that was in Lebanon, sent unto a cedar that was in Lebanon, saying, Come! give thy daughter unto my son to wife, —but there passed by a beast of the field that was in Lebanon, and trampled down the thistle.
Fa Joasy, mpanjakan’ ny Isiraely, naniraka tany amin’ i Amazia, mpanjakan’ ny Joda, nanao hoe: Ny tsilo izay tany Libanona naniraka tamin’ ny hazo sedera izay tany Libanona nanao hoe: Omeo ny zanakolahy ny zanakaovavy ho vadiny; dia namaky teo ny bibi-dia tany Libanona ka nanosihosy ny tsilo.
19 Thou hast said-Lo! thou hast smitten the Edomites, and thy heart hath lifted thee up to display honour, -Now, abide in thine own house, wherefore shouldst thou engage in strife with Misfortune, and fall, thou and Judah with thee?
Lazainao fa namely an’ i Edoma ianao, ka dia nanesika anao hirehareha ny fonao; mitoera ihany ange ao an-tranonao, fa nahoana no hihaika ny loza hahalavo ny tenanao mbamin’ ny Joda koa ianao?
20 But Amaziah hearkened not, because, from God, it was, to the end he might deliver them up into [their enemies’] hand, —because they had sought the gods of Edom.
Fa tsy nanaiky Amazia, satria avy tamin’ Andriamanitra izany, mba hanolorany azy ho eo an-tànan’ ny fahavalony noho ny nitadiavany ny andriamanitry ny Edomita.
21 So Joash king of Israel came up, and they looked one another in the face, he, and Amaziah king of Judah, —in Beth-shemesh, which belongeth unto Judah.
Ka dia niakatra Joasy, mpanjakan’ ny Isiraely; ary izy sy Amazia, mpanjakan’ ny Joda, nihaona tany Beti-semesy izay an’ i Joda.
22 Then was Judah defeated, before Israel, —and they fled every man to his own home;
Dia resy teo anoloan’ ny Isiraely ny Joda, ka samy nandositra ho any amin’ ny lainy avy izy.
23 and, Amaziah king of Judah, son of Joash son of Jehoahaz, was taken by Joash king of Israel, in Beth-shemesh, —and he brought him to Jerusalem, and brake down the wall of Jerusalem, from the gate of Ephraim as far as the corner-gate, four hundred cubits;
Ary Amazia, mpanjakan’ ny Joda, zanak’ Joasy, zanak’ i Joahaza, dia nosamborin’ i Joasy, mpanjakan’ ny Isiraely, tany Beti-semesy ka nentiny nankany Jerosalema; ary nandravan’ i Joasy efa-jato hakiho ny mandan’ i Jerosalema hatramin’ ny vavahadin’ i Efraima ka hatramin’ ny vavahady an-jorony.
24 and, all the gold and the silver and all the utensils that were found in the house of God with Obed-edom, and the treasures of the house of the king, and hostages, he took, -and returned to Samaria.
Ary nalainy avokoa ny volamena sy ny volafotsy rehetra ary ny fanaka rehetra izay hita tao an-tranon’ Andriamanitra tao amin’ i Obed-edoma sy tamin’ ny rakitry ny tranon’ ny mpanjaka mbamin’ ny olona natao antoka koa, ka dia niverina ho any Samaria izy.
25 And Amaziah son of Joash king of Judah lived, after the death of Joash son of Jehoahaz king of Israel, —fifteen years.
Ary ny andro niainan’ i Amazia zanak’ i Joasy, mpanjakan’ ny Joda, taorian’ ny nahafatesan’ i Joasy, zanak’ i Joahaza, mpanjakan’ ny Isiraely, dia dimy ambin’ ny folo taona.
26 Now, the rest of the story of Amaziah, first and last, lo! it is written in the book of the Kings of Judah and Israel.
Ary ny tantaran’ i Amazia sisa, na ny voalohany na ny farany, indro, tsy efa voasoratra ao amin’ ny bokin’ ny mpanjakan’ ny Joda sy ny Isiraely va izany?
27 And, after the time that Amaziah turned away from following Yahweh, they made against him a conspiracy in Jerusalem, and he fled to Lachish, —but they sent after him to Lachish, and slew him there.
Ary hatramin’ ny andro nihemoran’ i Amazia tsy nanaraka an’ i Jehovah dia niodina taminy tany Jerosalema ny olona, ka dia nandositra nankany Lakisy izy; fa naniraka nanaraka azy tany ny olona ka namono azy tany.
28 And they brought him on horses, -and buried him with his fathers, in the city of Judah.
Ary nasampiny tamin’ ny soavaly ny fatiny, dia naleviny tao amin’ ny razany tao an-tanànan’ ny Joda.
