< 2 Chronicles 26 >

1 And they took all [the] people of Judah Uzziah and he [was] a son of six-teen year[s] and they made king him in place of father his Amaziah.
Kisha watu wote wa Yuda wakamtwaa Uzia, aliyekuwa na umri wa miaka kumi na sita, nao wakamfanya mfalme mahali pa Amazia baba yake.
2 He he built Elath and he restored it to Judah after lay down the king with ancestors his.
Ndiye alijenga upya Elathi kuirudisha kwa Yuda baada ya Amazia kulala pamoja na baba zake.
3 [was] a son of Six-teen year[s] Uzziah when became king he and fifty and two year[s] he reigned in Jerusalem and [the] name of mother his ([was] Jecholiah *Q(K)*) from Jerusalem.
Uzia alikuwa na umri wa miaka kumi na sita alipoanza kutawala, naye akatawala huko Yerusalemu kwa miaka hamsini na miwili. Mama yake aliitwa Yekolia wa Yerusalemu.
4 And he did the right in [the] eyes of Yahweh according to all that he had done Amaziah father his.
Akatenda yaliyo mema machoni pa Bwana, kama Amazia baba yake alivyofanya.
5 And he was to seek God in [the] days of Zechariah who was skilled in [the] seeing of God and in [the] days of seeking he Yahweh he made prosper him God.
Akamtafuta Mungu katika siku za Zekaria, aliyemwelekeza kumcha Mungu. Wakati wote alipomtafuta Bwana, Mungu alimfanikisha.
6 And he went out and he fought against the Philistines and he made a breach in [the] wall of Gath and [the] wall of Jabneh and [the] wall of Ashdod and he built cities in Ashdod and among the Philistines.
Alipigana vita dhidi ya Wafilisti na kubomoa kuta za Gathi, Yabne na Ashdodi. Kisha akajenga upya miji karibu na Ashdodi na mahali pengine katikati ya Wafilisti.
7 And he helped him God on [the] Philistines and on (the Arabs *Q(k)*) who were dwelling in Gur Baal and the Meunites.
Mungu akamsaidia dhidi ya Wafilisti na dhidi ya Waarabu walioishi Gur-Baali na dhidi ya Wameuni.
8 And they paid the Ammonites tribute to Uzziah and it went name his till to [the] entrance of Egypt for he displayed strength to upwards.
Waamoni wakamletea Uzia ushuru, umaarufu wake ukaenea hadi kwenye mpaka wa Misri, kwa sababu alikuwa amekuwa na nguvu sana.
9 And he built Uzziah towers in Jerusalem at [the] gate of the corner and at [the] gate of the valley and at the buttress and he made strong them.
Uzia akajenga minara huko Yerusalemu katika Lango la Pembeni, katika Lango la Bondeni na katika pembe, mahali kuta zikutanapo, kisha akaijengea ngome.
10 And he built towers in the wilderness and he dug wells many for livestock much it belonged to him and in the Shephelah and in the plain farmers and vinedressers in the mountains and in the orchards for loving [the] ground he was.
Akajenga pia minara jangwani na kuchimba visima vingi vya maji, kwa sababu alikuwa na mifugo mingi chini ya vilimani na kwenye nchi tambarare. Alikuwa na watu wanaofanya kazi katika mashamba yake na kwenye mashamba yake ya mizabibu huko vilimani na katika ardhi zenye rutuba, kwa kuwa aliupenda udongo.
11 And it belonged to Uzziah an army doing battle [those who] go forth of war to troop[s] by [the] number of muster their by [the] hand of (Jeiel *Q(K)*) the scribe and Maaseiah the official on [the] hand of Hananiah one of [the] officials of the king.
Zaidi ya hayo, Uzia alikuwa na jeshi lililofunzwa vizuri, lililokuwa tayari kwenda vitani kwa vikosi kufuatana na idadi yao kama walivyokusanywa na Yeieli mwandishi na Maaseya msimamizi chini ya maelekezo ya Hanania, mmojawapo wa maafisa wa mfalme.
12 All [the] number of [the] heads of the fathers of mighty [men] of strength two thousand and six hundred.
Idadi yote ya viongozi wa jamaa waliowaongoza hawa wapiganaji walikuwa 2,600.
13 And [was] on hand their an army of war three hundred thousand and seven thousand and five hundred doers of battle with power of strength to help the king on the enemy.
Chini ya uongozi wao kulikuwa na jeshi la askari 307,500 watu waliofundishwa kwa ajili ya vita, jeshi lenye nguvu la kumsaidia mfalme dhidi ya adui zake.
14 And he prepared for them Uzziah for all the army shields and spears and helmets and body armor and bows and stones of slings.
Uzia akalipatia jeshi lote ngao, mikuki, chapeo, dirii, pinde na mawe ya kombeo.
15 And he made - in Jerusalem war engines of invention of an inventor to be on the towers and on the corners to shoot with arrows and with stones large and it went out name his to from a distance for he made wonderful to be helped until for he was strong.
Huko Yerusalemu watu wenye utaalamu mkubwa wakatengeneza mitambo iliyotumika katika minara na kwenye pembe za ulinzi ili kurusha mishale na kuvurumisha mawe makubwa. Sifa zake zikaenea mbali sana kwa sababu alisaidiwa mno mpaka akawa na nguvu sana.
16 And according to strengthening his it was haughty heart his until behaved corruptly and he acted unfaithfully against Yahweh God his and he went into [the] temple of Yahweh to make smoke on [the] altar of incense.
Lakini baada ya Uzia kuwa na nguvu sana, majivuno yake yakamsababishia kuanguka. Alikosa uaminifu kwa Bwana Mungu wake, naye akaingia hekaluni mwa Bwana ili afukize uvumba kwenye madhabahu ya kufukizia uvumba.
17 And he went after him Azariah the priest and [were] with him priests - of Yahweh eighty sons of strength.
Azaria kuhani akiwa pamoja na makuhani wengine themanini wa Bwana wenye ujasiri wakamfuata huko ndani.
18 And they took their stand on Uzziah the king and they said to him not [belongs] to you O Uzziah to make smoke to Yahweh for to the priests [the] descendants of Aaron who are consecrated to make smoke go out from the sanctuary for you have acted unfaithfully and not of you for honor from Yahweh God.
Wakamkabili na kumwambia, “Siyo sawa kwako, Uzia, kumfukizia Bwana uvumba. Hiyo ni kazi ya makuhani, wazao wa Aroni, ambao wamewekwa wakfu ili kufukiza uvumba. Ondoka mahali patakatifu, kwa kuwa umekosa uaminifu nawe hutaheshimiwa na Bwana.”
19 And he was enraged Uzziah and [was] in hand his a censer to make smoke and when enraging he with the priests and skin disease it arose on forehead his before the priests in [the] house of Yahweh from on to [the] altar of incense.
Uzia, ambaye alikuwa na chetezo mkononi mwake tayari kufukiza uvumba, akakasirika. Alipokuwa anawaghadhibikia makuhani mbele ya madhabahu ya kufukizia uvumba katika Hekalu la Bwana, ukoma ukamtokea penye kipaji chake cha uso.
20 And he turned to him Azariah [the] priest of the head and all the priests and there! he [was] leprous on forehead his and they hastened him from there and also he he hurried himself to go out for he had struck him Yahweh.
Azaria kuhani mkuu pamoja na makuhani wengine wote walipomtazama wakaona kwamba alikuwa na ukoma penye kipaji chake cha uso wakaharakisha kumtoa nje. Naam, hata yeye mwenyewe alikuwa anatamani kuondoka kwa sababu Bwana alikuwa amempiga.
21 And he was Uzziah the king leprous - until [the] day of death his and he dwelt [the] house of (separateness *Q(k)*) leprous for he was cut off from [the] house of Yahweh and Jotham son his [was] over [the] house of the king judging [the] people of the land.
Mfalme Uzia alikuwa na ukoma mpaka siku ya kufa kwake. Akatengwa katika nyumba ya pekee akiwa mwenye ukoma, naye akawa ametengwa kutoka Hekalu la Bwana. Yothamu mwanawe akawa msimamizi wa jumba la mfalme, pia akawaongoza watu wa nchi.
22 And [the] rest of [the] matters of Uzziah former and latter he has written Isaiah [the] son of Amoz the prophet.
Matukio mengine ya utawala wa Uzia, kuanzia mwanzo mpaka mwisho, yameandikwa na nabii Isaya mwana wa Amozi.
23 And he lay down Uzziah with ancestors his and people buried him with ancestors his in [the] field of grave which [belonged] to the kings for they said [was] leprous he and he became king Jotham son his in place of him.
Uzia akalala pamoja na baba zake, naye akazikwa karibu nao katika shamba la kuzikia lililokuwa mali ya wafalme, kwa kuwa watu walisema, “Alikuwa na ukoma.” Yothamu mwanawe akawa mfalme baada yake.
