2 Kings 21
1 Twelve years old, was Manasseh when he began to reign, and, fifty-five years, reigned he in Jerusalem, —and the name of his mother was Hephzibah.
Manase anakhala mfumu ali ndi zaka khumi ndi ziwiri ndipo analamulira mu Yerusalemu zaka 55. Amayi ake anali Hefiziba.
2 And he did the thing that was wicked in the eyes of Yahweh, —after the abominable practices of the nations, whom Yahweh had dispossessed from before the sons of Israel.
Iye anachita zoyipa pamaso pa Yehova, potsatira mchitidwe wonyansa wa mitundu imene Yehova anayipirikitsa pofika Aisraeli.
3 He again built the high places, which Hezekiah his father had destroyed, —and reared altars to Baal, and made a Sacred Stem, as did Ahab, king of Israel, and bowed down to all the army of the heavens, and served them.
Iyetu anamanganso malo opembedzera mafano amene Hezekiya abambo ake anawawononga. Anamangira Baala maguwa a nsembe ndi mtengo wa fano la Asera monga anachitira Ahabu mfumu ya Israeli ndipo ankapembedza zolengedwa zonse zamlengalenga.
4 And he used to build altars in the house of Yahweh, —concerning which Yahweh had said, —In Jerusalem, will I put my Name.
Anamanga maguwa ansembewa mʼNyumba ya Yehova, mʼmene Yehova ananena kuti, “Mu Yerusalemu ndidzayikamo Dzina langa.”
5 And he built altars to all the army of the heavens, —in the two courts of the house of Yahweh;
Mʼmabwalo onse awiri a Nyumba ya Yehova, Manase anamangamo maguwa opembedzerapo zinthu zamlengalenga.
6 and caused his son to pass through the fire, and practised hidden arts and used divination, and dealt with a familiar spirit and wizards, —he exceeded in doing the thing that was wicked in the eyes of Yahweh, provoking [him] to anger;
Iye anapsereza mwana wake pa moto ngati nsembe, ankachita za matsenga, ankawombeza mawula, ankapita kwa woyankhula ndi mizimu ya anthu akufa ndiponso ankapembedza mizimu. Iyeyo anachita zoyipa zambiri pamaso pa Yehova ndipo anakwiyitsa Yehovayo.
7 and he set the image of the Sacred Stem which he had made, —in the house, of which Yahweh had said unto David, and unto Solomon his son, In this house, and in Jerusalem which I have chosen out of all the tribes of Israel, will I put my Name, unto times age-abiding;
Iye anatenga fano losema la Asera limene analipanga ndi kuliyika mʼNyumba ya Yehova, Nyumba imene Yehova ananena kwa Davide ndi mwana wake Solomoni kuti, “Mʼnyumba iyi ndi mu Yerusalemu ndiwo malo amene ndasankha pakati pa mafuko onse a Aisraeli kuyikamo Dzina langa kwamuyaya.
8 and I will not again let the foot of Israel wander away from the soil which I gave unto their fathers. Only if they take heed to do according to all that I have commanded them, even to the extent of all the law which, my servant Moses, commanded them.
Sindidzalola kuti Aisraeli achotsedwe mʼdziko lawo limene ndinapatsa makolo awo ngati iwowo adzasamala kuchita zinthu zonse zimene ndinawalamula ndi kusunga malamulo onse amene mtumiki wanga Mose anawapatsa.”
9 But they hearkened not, —and Manasseh led them astray to do the thing that was wicked, more than the nations which Yahweh destroyed from before the sons of Israel.
Koma anthu sanamvere. Manase anawasocheretsa, kotero kuti anachita zoyipa zambiri kupambana anthu a mitundu ina amene Yehova anawawononga pamene Aisraeli ankafika.
10 Yahweh therefore spake through his servants the prophets saying—
Yehova anayankhula kudzera mwa atumiki ake, aneneri kuti,
11 Because Manasseh king of Judah hath made these abominations—hath done that which is wicked, more than all which the Amorites did who were before him, and hath caused, even Judah, to sin with his manufactured gods,
“Manase mfumu ya Yuda wachita machimo onyansawa ndipo wachita zoyipa kupambana Aamori amene analipo kale iye asanabadwe ndi kuchimwitsa anthu a ku Yuda ndi mafano ake.
12 therefore—Thus, saith Yahweh, God of Israel, Behold me! bringing in calamity upon Jerusalem and Judah, —that, whosoever heareth thereof, both his ears, will tingle;
Choncho Yehova Mulungu wa Israeli akuti, ‘Taonani, ndikubweretsa pa Yerusalemu ndi Yuda mavuto akuti aliyense amene adzawamve adzathedwa nzeru.
13 And I will stretch over Jerusalem, the line of Samaria, and the plummet of the house of Ahab, —and will wipe out Jerusalem, as one wipeth out a dish, wiping it and turning it upside down;
Ndidzalanga Yerusalemu ndi Yuda pogwiritsa ntchito muyeso umene ndinalangira Samariya ndi Ahabu pamodzi ndi nyumba yake. Ndidzayeretsa Yerusalemu monga mmene munthu amachitira popukuta mbale ndipo atayipukuta amayivundikira pansi.
14 And will abandon the remnant of mine inheritance, and deliver them into the hand of their enemies, —and they shall become a prey and a plunder, to all their enemies:
Ndidzawataya anthu otsala amene ndi cholowa changa ndipo ndidzawapereka mʼmanja mwa adani awo. Adzachotsedwa ndipo adaniwo adzawalanda zinthu zonse
15 Because they have done the thing that is wicked in mine eyes, and have become such as to provoke me to anger, —from the day when their fathers came forth out of Egypt, even until this day.
chifukwa anachita zoyipa pamaso panga ndipo akhala akundikwiyitsa kuchokera tsiku limene makolo awo anatuluka mu Igupto mpaka lero lino.’”
16 Moreover also, innocent blood, did Manasseh shed in great abundance, till he had filled Jerusalem, from one end to the other, besides his committing the sins which he caused, Judah, to commit, in doing the thing that was wicked in the eyes of Yahweh.
Kuwonjezera apo, Manase anakhetsa kwambiri magazi a anthu osalakwa mpaka magaziwo kuyenderera mu Yerusalemu kuyambira mbali ina mpaka mbali ina, kuphatikiza pa kuchimwitsa Yuda, kotero kuti anthu anachita zoyipa pamaso pa Yehova.
17 Now, the rest of the story of Manasseh, and all that he did, and his sin that he committed, are, they, not written in the book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah?
Ntchito zina za Manase ndi zonse zimene anachita, kodi sizinalembedwe mʼbuku la mbiri ya mafumu a Yuda?
18 And Manasseh slept with his fathers, and was buried in the garden of his own house, in the garden of Uzza, —and, Amon his son, reigned, in his stead.
Manase anagona ndi makolo ake ndipo anayikidwa mʼmanda mʼmunda wa Uza, ku nyumba yaufumu. Ndipo Amoni mwana wake analowa ufumu mʼmalo mwake.
19 Twenty-two years old, was Amon when he began to reign, and, two years, reigned he in Jerusalem, —and, his mother’s name, was Meshullemeth daughter of Haruz, of Jotbah.
Amoni anakhala mfumu ali ndi zaka 22 ndipo analamulira mu Yerusalemu zaka ziwiri. Amayi ake anali Mesulemeti mwana wa Haruzi, wochokera ku Yotiba.
20 And he did the thing that was wicked in the eyes of Yahweh, —as did Manasseh his father;
Iye anachita zoyipa pamaso pa Yehova monga anachitira Manase abambo ake.
21 yea he walked in all the way wherein, his father, had walked, —and served the manufactured gods that, his father, had served, and bowed down to them;
Anatsatira makhalidwe onse a abambo ake. Ankapembedza mafano amene abambo akewo ankawapembedza ndipo ankawagwadira.
22 and forsook Yahweh the God of his fathers, —and walked not in the way of Yahweh.
Iyeyo anasiya Yehova Mulungu wa makolo ake ndipo sanayende mʼnjira ya Yehova.
23 And the servants of Amon, conspired against him, —and slew the king in his own house.
Nduna za Amoni zinamuchita chiwembu ndipo zinamupha mʼnyumba yake.
24 Then the people of the land smote all who had conspired against King Amon, —and the people of the land made, Josiah his son, king, in his stead.
Koma anthu a mʼdzikomo anapha onse amene anachitira chiwembu Mfumu Amoni, nayika Yosiya mwana wake kukhala mfumu mʼmalo mwake.
25 Now, the rest of the story of Amon, what he did, is, it, not written in the book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah?
Ntchito zina za Amoni ndi zonse zimene anachita, kodi sizinalembedwe mʼbuku la mbiri ya mafumu a Yuda?
26 And he was buried in his grave, in the garden of Uzza, —and, Josiah his son, reigned, in his stead.
Iye anayikidwa mʼmanda ake mʼmunda wa Uza. Ndipo Yosiya mwana wake analowa ufumu mʼmalo mwake.
