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 gbara afọ iri na abụọ mgbe ọ malitere ịbụ eze. Ọ chịrị iri afọ ise na ise na Jerusalem. Aha nne ya bụ Hefziba.
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.
O mere ihe dị njọ nʼanya Onyenwe anyị, site nʼịgbaso ihe arụ niile nke ndị mba ọzọ bi nʼala ahụ na mbụ mere, bụ ndị Onyenwe anyị chụpụrụ nʼihu ndị Izrel.
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.
O wugharịrị ebe dị elu niile nke nna ya Hezekaya lara nʼiyi. O wukwara ebe ịchụ aja dị iche iche nye Baal, pịakwa ogidi Ashera, dịka Ehab eze Izrel mere. Ọ kpọrọ isiala nye usuu ihe niile nke dị na mbara eluigwe, feekwa ha ofufe.
4 And he used to build altars in the house of Yahweh, —concerning which Yahweh had said, —In Jerusalem, will I put my Name.
O wuru ebe ịchụ aja dị iche iche, nʼime ụlọnsọ Onyenwe anyị, nke Onyenwe anyị, kwuru okwu banyere ya sị, “Ọ bụ na Jerusalem ka m ga-etinye Aha m.”
5 And he built altars to all the army of the heavens, —in the two courts of the house of Yahweh;
O wuru ebe ịchụ aja nye usuu ihe niile dị na mbara eluigwe, nʼogige abụọ nke nʼụlọnsọ Onyenwe anyị.
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;
O jikwa nwa ya nwoke chụọ aja nʼime ọkụ, ọ gbara aja, chọọ ọsịsa nʼaka ndị mgbaasị, jụta ase nʼaka ndị na-ajụ mmụọ ọjọọ ase, ya na ndị dibịa afa mekọkwara ihe. O mere ihe dị njọ nʼebe ọ dị ukwuu nʼanya Onyenwe anyị, si otu a kpasuo ya iwe.
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;
O were chi Ashera a pịrị apị, bụ nke o mere, debe nʼime ụlọnsọ ahụ, nke Onyenwe anyị gwara Devid na nwa ya Solomọn okwu, sị, “Nʼụlọnsọ a na nʼime Jerusalem, nke mụ onwe m họpụtara site nʼebo niile nke Izrel, ka m ga-akpọkwasị Aha m ruo mgbe ebighị ebi.
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.
Ma agaghị emekwa ka ụkwụ ndị Izrel wagharịa ọzọ site nʼala ahụ nke m nyere ndị nna nna ha, naanị ma ọ bụrụ na ha elezie anya debe ihe niile m nyere ha nʼiwu ma debekwa iwu niile nke ohu m bụ Mosis nyere ha.”
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.
Ma ha egeghị ntị, Manase duhiere ha, mee ka ha mee ihe dị njọ karịa nke ndị mba niile ndị Onyenwe anyị lara nʼiyi site nʼihu ndị Izrel.
10 Yahweh therefore spake through his servants the prophets saying—
Mgbe ahụ, Onyenwe anyị kwuru okwu site nʼọnụ ndị amụma ya, sị,
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,
“Nʼihi na Manase, eze Juda emeela ihe arụ ndị a, o meela ihe dị njọ karịa nke ndị Amọrait, bụ ndị bụ ya ụzọ, o werela arụsị ya duba Juda nʼime mmehie.
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;
Ya mere, nke a bụ ihe Onyenwe anyị, bụ Chineke nke Izrel, sịrị: Lee, ana m aga iweta mbibi dị ukwuu nke ga-adakwasị Jerusalem na Juda, nke ntị ọbụla nụrụ ya ga-azụ wuruwuru.
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;
Aga m esetipụ eriri ịtụ ọtụtụ nke m ji megide Sameria na ihe ịtụ mgbidi nke m ji megide ụlọ Ehab, nʼelu Jerusalem. Aga m ehichapụ Jerusalem dịka mmadụ si ehichapụ efere, hichaa ya ihu na azụ ma kpuo ya ihu nʼala.
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:
Aga m agbakụtakwa ndị fọdụrụ nʼihe nketa m azụ, were ha nyefee nʼaka ndị iro ha. Ha ga-aghọ ihe anaara nʼike, ghọọkwa ihe nkwata nʼagha nye ndị iro ha niile,
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.
nʼihi na ha emeela ihe dị njọ nʼanya m, kpasukwaa m iwe, site nʼụbọchị nna nna ha si Ijipt pụta ọbụladị ruo taa.”
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.
Nke ka nke, Manase gbukwara ọtụtụ ndị aka ha dị ọcha, ruo na ọ wụsaara ọbara ha site nʼotu akụkụ Jerusalem ruo nʼakụkụ nke ọzọ ya, nke a agụnyeghị mmehie ahụ nke o dubara ndị Juda ime, nke mere ka ha mee ihe dị njọ nʼanya Onyenwe anyị.
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?
Ma banyere ihe ndị ọzọ niile mere nʼoge ọchịchị Manase na ihe niile o mere, tinyere mmehie niile nke o mere, ọ bụ na e deghị ha nʼakwụkwọ akụkọ ihe mere nʼoge ndị eze Juda?
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 soro ndị nna nna ya ha dina nʼọnwụ, e lie ya nʼime ubi a gbara ogige nʼụlọeze ya, bụ ubi Ụza a gbara ogige. Amọn nwa ya ghọrọ eze nʼọnọdụ ya.
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.
Amọn gbara iri afọ abụọ na abụọ mgbe ọ malitere ịbụ eze. Ọ chịrị afọ abụọ na Jerusalem. Aha nne ya bụ Meshulemet, ada Haruz onye Jotba.
20 And he did the thing that was wicked in the eyes of Yahweh, —as did Manasseh his father;
O mere ihe dị njọ nʼanya Onyenwe anyị dịka nna ya Manase mere.
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;
Ọ gbasoro ụzọ ahụ niile dị iche nke nna ya gbasoro. O fere arụsị niile nke nna ya fere, kpọọkwa isiala nye ha.
22 and forsook Yahweh the God of his fathers, —and walked not in the way of Yahweh.
Ọ jụrụ iso Onyenwe anyị, bụ Chineke nna nna ya ha, jụkwa ibi ndụ irube isi nye ya.
23 And the servants of Amon, conspired against him, —and slew the king in his own house.
Ndị na-ejere Amọn ozi gbara izu megide ya, ha gburu eze nʼime ụlọeze ya.
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.
Mgbe ahụ, ndị ala ahụ gburu ndị niile ahụ gbara izu megide eze Amọn. Ha mere Josaya nwa ya nwoke eze nʼọnọdụ ya.
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?
Ma banyere ihe ndị ọzọ niile mere nʼoge ọchịchị Amọn na ihe ndị o mere, ọ bụ na e deghị ha nʼakwụkwọ akụkọ ihe mere nʼoge ndị eze Juda?
26 And he was buried in his grave, in the garden of Uzza, —and, Josiah his son, reigned, in his stead.
E liri ya nʼili nke aka ya, dị nʼogige Ụza. Josaya nwa ya ghọrọ eze nʼọnọdụ ya.
