< 2 Chronicles 25 >
1 A son of twenty and five year[s] he became king Amaziah and twenty and nine year[s] he reigned in Jerusalem and [the] name of mother his [was] Jehoaddan from Jerusalem.
Amazia xɔ ƒe blaeve vɔ atɔ̃ esi wòzu fia. Eɖu fia le Yerusalem ƒe blaeve vɔ asieke. Dadaa ŋkɔe nye Yehoadin, tso Yerusalem.
2 And he did the right in [the] eyes of Yahweh only not with a heart complete.
Ewɔa nu si dze Mawu ŋu enuenu gake menye ɣe sia ɣi o!
3 And it was just when it was secure the kingdom on him and he killed servants his who had struck down the king father his.
Esi wòkpɔ be fiaɖuƒe la li ke ɖe yeƒe asi me la, ewu dumegã siwo katã wu fofoa.
4 And children their not he put to death for according to [what] is written in the law in [the] book of Moses which he commanded Yahweh saying not they will die parents on children and children not they will die on parents for each for own sin his they will die.
ke mewu wo viwo ya o. Ewɔ ɖe Yehowa ƒe se si wòde woŋlɔ ɖe Mose ƒe segbalẽa me ene be, “Womawu fofowo ɖe wo viwo ƒe nu vɔ̃wo ta o, nenema ke viwo hã maku ɖe wo fofowo ƒe nu vɔ̃wo ta o, ke boŋ ele be ame sia ame naku ɖe eya ŋutɔ ƒe nu vɔ̃ ta.”
5 And he assembled Amaziah Judah and he appointed them to [the] house of ancestors to [the] commanders of the thousands and to [the] commanders of the hundreds for all Judah and Benjamin and he enrolled them from a son of twenty year[s] and up-wards and he found them three hundred thousand chosen [man] [one who] goes forth warfare [one who] holds spear and body shield.
Gawu la, Amazia yɔ Yuda katã ƒo ƒu eye wòde dɔ asi na wo le woƒe ƒomeawo nu be, woanye asrafo akpewo kple asrafo alafa ɖekawo ƒe aʋafiawo na Yuda kple Benyamin katã. Emegbe la etia ɖekakpui siwo xɔ ƒe blaeve alo wu nenema eye wokpɔ be woƒe xexlẽme de akpe alafa etɔ̃, wole klalo na asrafodɔ wɔwɔ ame siwo ate ŋu awɔ akplɔ kple akpoxɔnu ŋu dɔ nyuie.
6 And he hired from Israel one hundred thousand mighty [man] of strength for one hundred talent[s] of silver.
Hekpe ɖe esia ŋu la, etsɔ aʋawɔla xɔŋkɔ akpe alafa ɖeka tso Israel kple klosaloga tɔn etɔ̃.
7 And [the] man of God he came to him saying O king may not it go with you [the] army of Israel for not Yahweh [is] with Israel all [the] descendants of Ephraim.
Ke nyagblɔɖila aɖe va gblɔ nya si tso Mawu gbɔ la nɛ be, “Oo fia, mègatsɔ aʋawɔlawo tso Israel o elabena Yehowa meli kpli wo o.
8 That except go you act be strong for the battle he will overthrow you God before [the] enemy for there [is] strength in God to help and to overthrow.
Ne èna woyi aʋa la kple wò amewo la, aleke ke miawɔ aʋa lae hã la, woaɖu mia dzi kokoko elabena ŋusẽ le Mawu si be wòakpe ɖe mia ŋu loo alo wòagblẽ nu me na mi.”
9 And he said Amaziah to [the] man of God and what? [is] to do to [the] one hundred the talent[s] which I paid to [the] troop[s] of Israel and he said [the] man of God there [belongs] to Yahweh to give to you much more than this.
Amazia bia Mawu ƒe ame la be, “Klosaloga tɔn etɔ̃ kple afã si mexe ɖe Israel ƒe aʋakɔwo ta ya ɖe?” Mawu ƒe ame la ɖo eŋu nɛ be, “Yehowa ate ŋu ana ga wò wòasɔ gbɔ sãa wu ema.”
10 And he separated them Amaziah the troop[s] which it had come to him from Ephraim to go to place their and it burned anger their exceedingly on Judah and they returned to place their in [the] heat of anger.
Ale Amazia na aʋawɔla siwo wòtsɔ la trɔ dzo yi Efraim. Nu sia na wobu be, Amazia ɖi gbɔ̃ yewo eye wodo dɔmedzoe ɖe eŋuti ŋutɔ.
11 And Amaziah he strengthened himself and he led out people his and he went [the] Valley of Salt and he struck down [the] people of Seir ten thousand.
Dzi ɖo Amazia ƒo, ekplɔ eƒe aʋakɔ yi Dze Balime eye wowu ame akpe ewo tso Seir.
12 And ten thousand alive they took captive [the] people of Judah and they brought them to [the] top of the cliff and they threw them from [the] top of cliff and all of them they were split open.
Wolé ame akpe ewo bubu agbagbe, kplɔ wo yi to aɖe tame; wotu asi wo tso afi ma eye woge dze agakpewo dzi le balime la, nuvevi wɔ wo eye woku.
13 And [the] sons of the troop which he had turned back Amaziah from going with him to the battle and they made a raid on [the] cities of Judah from Samaria and to Beth Horon and they struck down of them three thousand and they plundered plunder much.
Israel ƒe aʋakɔ si Amazia gbugbɔ ɖo ɖe aƒe la, ge ɖe Yudanyigba dzi eye woha nu le du geɖewo me le Bet Horon lɔƒo ɖo ta Samaria. Wowu ame akpe etɔ̃ eye woha aboyonu geɖewo.
14 And it was after came Amaziah from defeating [the] Edomites and he brought [the] gods of [the] people of Seir and he set up them for himself to gods and before them he bowed down and to them he made smoke.
Esi Fia Amazia ɖu Edomtɔwo dzi eye wòtrɔ gbɔ la, etsɔ legba siwo woxɔ le Seirtɔwo si la gbɔe. Etsɔ wo ɖo mawuwoe, dea ta agu na wo eye wòdoa dzudzɔ na wo.
15 And it burned [the] anger of Yahweh on Amaziah and he sent to him a prophet and he said to him why? have you sought [the] gods of the people which not they delivered own people their from hand your.
Nu sia do dɔmedzoe na Yehowa ŋutɔ, eya ta wòɖo nyagblɔɖila aɖe ɖa be wòabia Amazia be, “Nu ka ta nèsubɔ mawu siwo mete ŋu ɖe woawo ŋutɔ ƒe amewo tso wò asi me o ɖo?”
16 And it was - when was speaking he to him and he said to him ¿ into a counselor of the king have we made you cease yourself why? will people strike down you and he ceased the prophet and he said I know that he has planned God to destroy you for you have done this and not you have listened to counsel my.
Fia Amazia ɖo eŋu na nyagblɔɖila la be, “Ɣe ka ɣie mebia wò aɖaŋuɖoɖo kpɔ? Zi ɖoɖoe kaba, ne menye nenema o la, mana woawu wò.” Esi nyagblɔɖila la dzo yina la, egblɔ na Fia Amazia be, “Menya be Mawu ɖo ta me be yeatsrɔ̃ wò le esi nèsubɔ legba siawo eye mèse nye nuxlɔ̃amenya o la ta.”
17 And he took counsel Amaziah [the] king of Judah and he sent to Joash [the] son of Jehoahaz [the] son of Jehu [the] king of Israel saying (come! *Q(K)*) let us look at one another faces.
Azɔ la, Yuda fia, Amazia, se eƒe aɖaŋuɖolawo ƒe gbe eye wòho aʋa ɖe Israel fia, Yoas, Yehoahaz ƒe vi kple Yehu ƒe tɔgbuiyɔvi ŋu.
18 And he sent Joash [the] king of Israel to Amaziah [the] king of Judah saying the thornbush which [was] in Lebanon it sent to the cedar which [was] in Lebanon saying give! daughter your to son my to a wife and it passed by [the] animal of the field which [was] in Lebanon and it trampled the thornbush.
Fia Yoas do lo sia na Amazia be, “Ŋuve sue aɖe le Lebanon towo dzi gblɔ na sedati be, ‘Tsɔ viwò nyɔnu nam maɖe na vinye ŋutsu.’ Le ɣe ma ɣi tututu la, lã wɔadã aɖe va nye avuzi le ŋuve la dzi eye wògbãe ɖe anyigba.
19 You have said here! you have struck down Edom and it has lifted you heart your to become heavy now remain! in house your why? will you engage in strife with harm and you will fall you and Judah with you.
Èle gbɔgblɔm na ɖokuiwò be yeɖu Edomtɔwo dzi eye wònye adegbeƒoƒo gã aɖe na wò. Ke aɖaŋu si maɖo na wò lae nye nàkpɔ ŋudzedze le wò dziɖuɖu ŋu eye nànɔ mia de kpoo! Nu ka ta nàhe dzɔgbevɔ̃e va ɖokuiwò kple Yuda siaa dzi?”
20 And not he listened Amaziah for [was] from God it so as to give them in a hand for they had sought [the] gods of Edom.
Amazia meɖo to nya sia o elabena Mawu nɔ ɖoɖo wɔm be yeatsrɔ̃e le esi wòde ta agu na Edomtɔwo ƒe mawuwo ta.
21 And he went up Joash [the] king of Israel and they looked at one another faces he and Amaziah [the] king of Judah at Beth Shemesh which [belonged] to Judah.
Israel fia Yoas kple Amazia ƒe aʋakɔwo do go le Bet Semes le Yuda.
22 And it was defeated Judah before Israel and they fled each to tents his.
Ke Israel si Yuda eye eƒe aʋakɔ katã si yi aƒe.
23 And Amaziah [the] king of Judah [the] son of Joash [the] son of Jehoahaz he caught Joash [the] king of Israel at Beth Shemesh and he brought him Jerusalem and he made a breach in [the] wall of Jerusalem from [the] gate of Ephraim to [the] gate of the Corner four hundred cubit[s].
Israel fia Yehoas lé Amazia, Yuda fia, ame si nye Yoas ƒe vi, Ahazia ƒe vi le Bet Semes. Tete Yehoas kplɔe va Yerusalem eye wògbã Yerusalem ƒe gliwo ƒu anyi tso Efraimgbo la nu va se ɖe Dzogoedzigbo la gbɔ. Teƒe si wògbã la didi abe mita alafa ɖeka blaenyi ene.
24 And all the gold and the silver and all the articles which were found in [the] house of God with Obed-Edom and [the] treasures of [the] house of the king and [the] sons of the pledges and he returned Samaria.
Eye wòlɔ sika kple klosalowo katã kpakple ŋudɔwɔnuawo katã le Obed Edom si me le Yehowa ƒe gbedoxɔ me le hekpe ɖe kesinɔnu siwo katã nɔ fiasã la me kple awɔbamewo ŋuti yi Samaria.
25 And he lived Amaziah [the] son of Joash [the] king of Judah after [the] death of Joash [the] son of Jehoahaz [the] king of Israel fif-teen year[s].
Ke Yuda fia Amazia, Yoas vi, nɔ agbe ƒe wuiatɔ̃ le Israel fia Yehoas, Yehoahaz vi ƒe ku megbe.
26 And [the] rest of [the] matters of Amaziah former and latter ¿ not there! [are] they written on [the] scroll of [the] kings of Judah and Israel.
Woŋlɔ Amazia ƒe ŋutinya mamlɛa ɖe Yuda fiawo ƒe ŋutinyagbalẽ me.
27 And from [the] time when he turned aside Amaziah from after Yahweh and people conspired on him a conspiracy in Jerusalem and he fled Lachish towards and they sent after him Lachish towards and they put to death him there.
Tso esime wòtrɔ le Yehowa yome la, woɖo nugbe ɖe eƒe agbe ŋu le Yerusalem ale wòsi yi Lakis, ke eƒe futɔwo dɔ ame ɖa woyi Lakis ɖawui le afi ma.
28 And they carried him on horses and they buried him with ancestors his in [the] city of Judah.
Wokɔ eƒe kukua ɖe sɔwo dzi va ɖi ɖe fiawo ƒe ameɖibɔ me le Yerusalem ƒe akpa si nye Fia David ƒe du la me.
