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 menjadi raja ketika berumur 25 tahun, dan ia memerintah di Yerusalem 29 tahun lamanya. Ibunya ialah Yoadan dari Yerusalem.
2 And he did the right in [the] eyes of Yahweh only not with a heart complete.
Amazia melakukan yang menyenangkan hati TUHAN, tetapi dengan setengah hati.
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.
Segera setelah kuat kedudukannya, ia menghukum mati pegawai-pegawai yang membunuh ayahnya.
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.
Tetapi anak-anak pegawai-pegawai itu tidak dibunuhnya karena ia menuruti perintah TUHAN dalam Buku Musa yang berbunyi, "Jangan menghukum mati orang tua karena kejahatan yang dilakukan oleh anak-anak mereka, dan jangan menghukum mati anak-anak karena kejahatan yang dilakukan oleh orang tua mereka. Setiap orang hanya boleh dihukum mati karena kejahatan yang dilakukannya sendiri."
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.
Raja Amazia mengumpulkan semua orang suku Yehuda dan Benyamin lalu menyuruh mereka berdiri menurut kaum masing-masing, dipimpin oleh komandan pasukan seribu dan komandan pasukan seratus. Kemudian ia memilih orang-orang yang berumur 20 tahun ke atas yang mampu bertempur dan pandai menggunakan tombak dan perisai. Jumlah mereka ada 300.000 orang.
6 And he hired from Israel one hundred thousand mighty [man] of strength for one hundred talent[s] of silver.
Selain itu ia menyewa 100.000 prajurit dari Israel dengan bayaran kira-kira 3.400 kilogram perak.
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.
Tetapi seorang nabi datang kepada raja dan berkata, "Jangan pakai prajurit-prajurit Israel itu, sebab TUHAN tidak menolong umat Israel yang dari Kerajaan Utara itu.
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.
Tetapi kalau Baginda memakai mereka juga, Allah akan membiarkan Baginda dikalahkan oleh musuh meskipun tentara Baginda kuat dan berani. Sebab hanya Allah saja berkuasa memberi kemenangan atau kekalahan."
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.
"Tapi bagaimana dengan semua perak yang telah kuberikan kepada mereka?" tanya Amazia. Nabi itu menjawab, "TUHAN bisa mengembalikan kepada Baginda lebih dari itu!"
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.
Karena itu Amazia membebaskan prajurit-prajurit sewaan itu dan menyuruh mereka pulang ke negerinya. Mereka pun pulang, tetapi dengan marah sekali.
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.
Amazia memberanikan diri dan membawa tentaranya ke Lembah Asin. Di sana mereka bertempur serta menewaskan 10.000 prajurit Edom.
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.
Sepuluh ribu yang lain ditawan. Mereka dibawa ke puncak gunung batu di kota Sela lalu dilemparkan ke bawah sehingga mati.
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.
Sementara itu prajurit-prajurit Israel yang telah disuruh pulang oleh Amazia, dan tidak diizinkan turut bertempur, telah menyerang kota-kota Yehuda antara Samaria dan Bet-Horon. Mereka membunuh 3.000 orang serta merampas banyak barang.
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.
Setelah mengalahkan tentara Edom, Amazia pulang membawa patung-patung berhala orang Edom dan menempatkannya di Yehuda. Lalu ia membakar dupa untuk patung-patung itu dan menyembahnya.
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.
Perbuatannya itu membuat TUHAN menjadi marah. Ia mengutus seorang nabi kepada Amazia. Nabi itu berkata, "Mengapa Baginda menyembah dewa bangsa lain yang tidak dapat menyelamatkan bangsanya sendiri dari kekuasaan Baginda?"
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.
"Diam," kata Amazia, "Kalau tidak, kami bunuh kau! Tidak pernah kami mengangkat kau menjadi penasihat raja!" Maka diamlah nabi itu, tetapi sebelumnya ia sempat berkata, "Sekarang saya tahu bahwa Allah sudah memutuskan untuk membinasakan Baginda karena perbuatan Baginda itu, dan karena Baginda tidak menghiraukan nasihat saya."
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.
Amazia raja Yehuda dengan para penasihatnya berkomplot melawan Israel. Ia mengirim utusan kepada Yoas raja Israel, anak Yoahas, cucu Yehu, untuk menantang dia berperang.
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.
Tetapi Raja Yoas mengirim jawaban ini, "Suatu waktu semak berduri di pegunungan Libanon mengirim tuntutan ini kepada pohon cemara, 'Hai pohon cemara, berikanlah anak gadismu kepada anakku untuk menjadi istrinya.' Tetapi kemudian lewatlah di situ seekor binatang hutan yang menginjak-injak semak berduri itu.
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.
Engkau, Amazia, membual bahwa kau telah mengalahkan orang Edom, tapi lebih baik kau tinggal saja di rumah. Untuk apa mencari-cari persoalan yang hanya akan mencelakakan dirimu dan rakyatmu?"
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.
Tetapi Amazia, raja Yehuda tidak menghiraukan kata-kata Yoas raja Israel. Dan Allah memang menghendaki supaya Amazia dikalahkan karena ia telah menyembah patung berhala orang Edom.
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.
Karena itu Yoas berangkat dengan anak buahnya ke Bet-Semes dan berperang dengan Amazia di sana.
22 And it was defeated Judah before Israel and they fled each to tents his.
Tentara Yehuda dikalahkan dan semua prajuritnya lari pulang ke rumahnya masing-masing.
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].
Yoas menangkap Amazia dan membawanya ke Yerusalem, lalu meruntuhkan tembok kota itu sepanjang kurang lebih 200 meter, mulai dari Pintu Gerbang Efraim sampai ke Pintu Gerbang Sudut.
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.
Semua emas dan perak serta semua perkakas yang ditemukannya di Rumah TUHAN dan yang berada di bawah pengawasan Obed-Edom, juga semua harta benda istana, bersama beberapa orang sandera diangkut oleh Yoas ke 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].
Setelah Yoas raja Israel meninggal, Amazia raja Yehuda masih hidup 15 tahun lagi.
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.
Sejak Amazia meninggalkan TUHAN, orang berkomplot melawan dia di Yerusalem. Karena itu, ia lari ke kota Lakhis, tetapi musuh-musuhnya mengejar dia ke sana dan membunuhnya. Jenazahnya diangkut dengan kuda ke Yerusalem, lalu dikuburkan di makam raja-raja di Kota Daud. Kisah lainnya mengenai Raja Amazia dari mula sampai akhir pemerintahannya dicatat dalam buku Sejarah Raja-raja Yehuda dan Israel.
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.
28 And they carried him on horses and they buried him with ancestors his in [the] city of Judah.
