2 Kings 17
1 In year two [plus] ten of Ahaz [the] king of Judah he became king Hoshea [the] son of Elah in Samaria over Israel nine years.
Na rĩrĩ, mwaka wa mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ wa Ahazu mũthamaki wa Juda, Hoshea mũrũ wa Ela agĩtuĩka mũthamaki wa Isiraeli kũu Samaria, nake agĩthamaka mĩaka kenda.
2 And he did the evil in [the] eyes of Yahweh only not like [the] kings of Israel who they were before him.
Agĩĩka maũndũ mooru maitho-inĩ ma Jehova, no ti ta ũrĩa athamaki a Isiraeli arĩa maarĩ mbere yake meekĩte.
3 On him he came up Shalmaneser [the] king of Assyria and he became of him Hoshea subject and he returned to him tribute.
Shalimaneseru mũthamaki wa Ashuri akĩambata agatharĩkĩre Hoshea, ũrĩa warĩ ndungata ya Shalimaneseru na nĩamũrĩhaga igooti.
4 And he found [the] king of Assyria in Hoshea treason that he had sent messengers to So [the] king of Egypt and not he had brought up tribute to [the] king of Assyria as a year in a year and he arrested him [the] king of Assyria and he confined him [the] house of imprisonment.
No mũthamaki wa Ashuri nĩamenyire atĩ Hoshea aarĩ mũkunyanĩri, nĩgũkorwo nĩatũmĩte andũ kũrĩ Soo mũthamaki wa Misiri, na nĩatigĩte kũrĩha igooti rĩa mũthamaki wa Ashuri ta ũrĩa ekaga mbere mwaka o mwaka. Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Shalimaneseru akĩmũnyiita, na akĩmũhingĩra njeera.
5 And he came up [the] king of Assyria in all the land and he came up Samaria and he laid siege on it three years.
Mũthamaki wa Ashuri agĩtharĩkĩra bũrũri wothe, agĩkinya Samaria na akĩrĩrigiicĩria mĩaka ĩtatũ.
6 In [the] year ninth of Hoshea he captured [the] king of Assyria Samaria and he took into exile Israel Assyria towards and he caused to dwell them in Halah and on [the] Habor [the] river of Gozan and [the] cities of Media.
Mwaka-inĩ wa kenda wa wathani wa Hoshea nĩguo mũthamaki wa Ashuri aatunyanire Samaria, agĩthaamĩria andũ a Isiraeli bũrũri wa Ashuri. Akĩmahe ũtũũro kũu Hala na Gozani, Rũũĩ-inĩ rwa Haboru, na matũũra-inĩ ma Amedi.
7 And it was that they had sinned [the] people of Israel to Yahweh God their who had brought up them from [the] land of Egypt from under [the] hand of Pharaoh [the] king of Egypt and they had feared gods other.
Maũndũ macio mothe meekĩkire nĩ ũndũ andũ a Isiraeli nĩmehĩirie Jehova Ngai wao, ũrĩa wamarutĩte bũrũri wa Misiri moime watho-inĩ wa Firaũni mũthamaki wa Misiri. Nao makĩinamĩrĩra ngai ingĩ, magĩcihooya,
8 And they had walked in [the] customs of the nations which he had dispossessed Yahweh from before [the] people of Israel and [the] kings of Israel which they had done.
na makĩrũmĩrĩra mĩtugo ya ndũrĩrĩ iria ciaingatĩtwo nĩ Jehova ciehere mbere yao, o na makarũmĩrĩra mĩtugo ĩrĩa yambĩrĩirio nĩ athamaki a Isiraeli.
9 And they did secretly [the] people of Israel things which [were] not right on Yahweh God their and they built for themselves high places in all cities their from a tower of watchmen unto a city of fortification.
Nao andũ a Isiraeli magĩĩka maũndũ na hitho ma gũũkĩrĩra Jehova Ngai wao marĩa mataagĩrĩire. Kuuma mũthiringo-inĩ wa kũrangĩra nginya itũũra rĩrĩa rĩairigĩirwo rũthingo rwa hinya, makĩĩakĩra kũndũ kũrĩa gũtũũgĩru gwa kũrutĩra magongona matũũra-inĩ mao mothe.
10 And they erected for themselves sacred pillars and Asherah poles on every hill high and under every tree luxuriant.
Nĩmahaandire mahiga maamũre o na itugĩ cia Ashera, kũndũ kũrĩa guothe gũtũũgĩru o na rungu rwa mĩtĩ ĩrĩa mĩruru.
11 And they made smoke there at all [the] high places like the nations which he had taken into exile Yahweh from before them and they did things evil to provoke to anger Yahweh.
Nĩmacinagĩra ũbumba handũ hothe hatũũgĩru, o ta ũrĩa ndũrĩrĩ iria Jehova aaingatĩte ciehere mbere yao ciekaga. Magĩĩka maũndũ ma waganu ma kũrakaria Jehova.
12 And they served the idols which he had said Yahweh to them not you must do the thing this.
Nĩmahooire mĩhianano o na gũtuĩka Jehova nĩoigĩte atĩrĩ, “Mũtikaneke ũguo.”
13 And he warned Yahweh Israel and Judah by [the] hand of every ([the] prophets *Q(K)*) every seer saying turn back from ways your evil and keep commandments my statutes my according to all the law which I commanded ancestors your and which I sent to you by [the] hand of servants my the prophets.
Nake Jehova agĩkaania andũ a Isiraeli na andũ a Juda na ũndũ wa anabii ake othe na andũ arĩa moonaga maũndũ, akĩmeera atĩrĩ: “Garũrũkai mũtigane na njĩra cianyu cia waganu. Rũmagiai maathani na irĩra cia watho wakwa wa kũrũmĩrĩrwo, kũringana na watho wothe ũrĩa ndaathire maithe manyu maathĩkagĩre, na ũrĩa ndaamũreheire na tũnua twa anabii ndungata ciakwa.”
14 And not they listened and they stiffened neck their like [the] neck of ancestors their who not they trusted in Yahweh God their.
No matiigana kũnjigua, no momirie ngoro ciao o ta ũrĩa maithe mao meekire, arĩa mateehokire Jehova Ngai wao.
15 And they rejected statutes his and covenant his which he had made with ancestors their and testimonies his which he warned them and they walked after vanity and they became vain and after the nations which [were] around them which he had commanded Yahweh them to not to do like them.
Nao makĩrega irĩra cia watho wake wa kũrũmĩrĩrwo na kĩrĩkanĩro kĩrĩa aarĩkanĩire na maithe mao, na mĩkaana ĩrĩa aamaheete. Nao maarũmĩrĩire mĩhianano ĩtarĩ kĩene, nao magĩtuĩka kĩndũ gĩtarĩ bata. Meegerekanirie na ndũrĩrĩ iria ciamarigiicĩirie, o na gũtuĩka Jehova nĩamathĩte, akoiga atĩrĩ, “Mũtigeke ta ũrĩa ndũrĩrĩ icio ciĩkaga,” nao magĩĩka maũndũ marĩa Jehova aamagirĩtie gwĩka.
16 And they forsook all [the] commandments of Yahweh God their and they made for themselves a molten image (two *Q(K)*) calves and they made an Asherah pole and they bowed down to all [the] host of the heavens and they served Baal.
Nĩmatiganĩirie maathani mothe ma Jehova Ngai wao, na magĩĩthondekera mĩhianano ĩĩrĩ ya gũtwekio ĩhaana ta njaũ, na magĩthondeka gĩtugĩ kĩa Ashera. Nao makĩinamĩrĩra ciũmbe ciothe cia igũrũ, na makĩhooya Baali.
17 And they made pass sons their and daughters their in the fire and they divined divinations and they practiced divination and they sold themselves to do the evil in [the] eyes of Yahweh to provoke to anger him.
Ningĩ makĩruta airĩtu na aanake ao marĩ magongona ma njino. Nĩmarathaga ũhoro na makaragũra, na makĩĩheana gwĩka maũndũ mooru maitho-inĩ ma Jehova, makĩmũrakaria.
18 And he was angry Yahweh very with Israel and he removed them from on face his not anyone was left only [the] tribe of Judah to only it.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Jehova akĩrakara mũno nĩ ũndũ wa andũ a Isiraeli, o nginya akĩmeheria mbere yake. No mũhĩrĩga wa Juda watigirwo.
19 Also Judah not it kept [the] commandments of Yahweh God their and they walked in [the] customs of Israel which they had done.
O nao andũ a Juda matiarũmĩrĩire maathani ma Jehova Ngai wao. Maarũmĩrĩire mĩtugo ĩrĩa yambĩrĩirio nĩ andũ a Isiraeli.
20 And he rejected Yahweh all [the] offspring of Israel and he afflicted them and he gave them in [the] hand of plunderers until that he threw them from before him.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Jehova akĩrega andũ a Isiraeli othe, akĩmaherithia na akĩmaneana moko-inĩ ma thũ, o nginya akĩmaingata mehere mbere yake.
21 If he tore Israel from with [the] house of David and they made king Jeroboam [the] son of Nebat (and he enticed away *Q(K)*) Jeroboam Israel from after Yahweh and he caused to sin them a sin great.
Na rĩrĩa aamũranirie andũ a Isiraeli na nyũmba ya Daudi-rĩ, nĩguo maatuire Jeroboamu mũrũ wa Nebati mũthamaki wao. Nake Jeroboamu akĩguucĩrĩria andũ a Isiraeli matige kũrũmĩrĩra Jehova, agĩtũma meehie rĩĩhia inene.
22 And they walked [the] people of Israel in all [the] sins of Jeroboam which he did not they turned aside from it.
Andũ a Isiraeli makĩrũmĩrĩra mehia mothe ma Jeroboamu, na matiigana gũcooka gũtigana namo,
23 Until that he removed Yahweh Israel from on face his just as he had spoken by [the] hand of all servants his the prophets and it went into exile Israel from on land its Assyria towards until the day this.
nginya rĩrĩa Jehova aameheririe mbere yake o ta ũrĩa aamerĩte na kanua ka ndungata ciake ciothe cia anabii. Nĩ ũndũ ũcio andũ a Isiraeli makĩeherio bũrũri wao, magĩthaamĩrio Ashuri, na no kuo marĩ.
24 And he brought [people] [the] king of Assyria from Babylon and from Cuthah and from Avva and from Hamath and Sepharvaim and he caused [them] to dwell in [the] cities of Samaria in place of [the] people of Israel and they took possession of Samaria and they dwelt in cities its.
Nake mũthamaki wa Ashuri akĩruta andũ Babuloni, na Kutho, na Ava, na Hamathu na Sefarivaimu, akĩmahe matũũra ma Samaria ithenya rĩa andũ a Isiraeli. Makĩĩgwatĩra Samaria, na magĩikara matũũra-inĩ makuo.
25 And it was at [the] beginning of dwelling they there not they feared Yahweh and he sent Yahweh among them lions and they were killing in them.
Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa maambĩrĩirie gũikara kuo matiahooyaga Jehova; nĩ ũndũ ũcio Jehova akĩmatũmĩra mĩrũũthi kuo, ĩkĩũraga andũ amwe.
26 And people said to [the] king of Assyria saying the nations which you took into exile and you caused to dwell in [the] cities of Samaria not they know [the] custom of [the] god of the land and he has sent among them lions and there they [are] killing them since not they [are] knowing [the] custom of [the] god of the land.
Nake mũthamaki wa Ashuri agĩkinyĩrio ũhoro akĩĩrwo atĩrĩ: “Andũ arĩa wathaamirie ũkĩmatwara matũũra-inĩ ma Samaria matiũĩ ũrĩa ngai ya bũrũri ũcio yendaga. Nĩĩmatũmĩire mĩrũũthi ĩrĩa ĩramooraga, tondũ andũ nĩmarigĩtwo nĩ kĩĩ ngai ĩyo yendaga.”
27 And he commanded [the] king of Assyria saying take there towards one from the priests whom you took into exile from there so they may go and they may dwell there so he may teach them [the] custom of [the] god of the land.
Hĩndĩ ĩyo mũthamaki wa Ashuri agĩathana atĩrĩ: “Reke mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai ũmwe wa arĩa maatahirwo kuuma Samaria acooke agatũũre kuo, nĩgeetha arute andũ ũrĩa ngai ya bũrũri ũcio yendaga.”
28 And he went one from the priests whom they had taken into exile from Samaria and he dwelt in Beth-el and he was teaching them how? will they fear Yahweh.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai ũmwe wa arĩa maatahĩtwo kuuma Samaria agĩthiĩ gũtũũra Betheli, akĩmaruta kũhooya Jehova.
29 And they were making nation nation own gods its and they placed [them] - in [the] house of the high places which they had made the Samaritans nation nation in own cities their where they [were] dwelling there.
No rĩrĩ, o rũrĩrĩ rũgĩĩthondekera ngai ciaruo matũũra-inĩ mothe marĩa maatũũraga, magĩciiga mahooero-inĩ marĩa maathondeketwo nĩ andũ a Samaria kũndũ kũrĩa gũtũũgĩru.
30 And [the] people of Babylon they made Succoth Benoth and [the] people of Cuthah they made Nergal and [the] people of Hamath they made Ashima.
Andũ a kuuma Babuloni magĩthondeka mũhianano wetagwo Sukothu-Benothu, nao andũ a Kutho magĩthondeka Nerigali, nao andũ a Hamathu magĩthondeka Ashima;
31 And the Avvites they made Nibhaz and Tartak and the Sepharvites [were] burning children their in the fire to Adrammelech and Anammelech ([the] gods of Sepharvaim. *Q(K)*)
nao andũ a Aavi magĩthondeka Nibihazu na Tarataka, nao andũ a Sefariri maacinaga ciana na mwaki irĩ ta magongona kũrĩ Adarameleki na Anameleku, ngai cia Sefarivaimu.
32 And they were fearing Yahweh and they appointed for themselves from among themselves priests of [the] high places and they were offering for them in [the] house of the high places.
Nĩmahooyaga Jehova, no ningĩ magĩthuura andũ a mĩthemba yothe yao matuĩke aruti wĩra ta athĩnjĩri-Ngai mahooero-inĩ ma kũndũ kũrĩa gũtũũgĩru.
33 Yahweh they were fearing and own gods their they were serving according to [the] custom of the nations which they had taken into exile them from there.
Nĩmahooyaga Jehova, na no maatungatagĩra ngai ciao, kũringana na mĩtugo ya ndũrĩrĩ cia kũrĩa maarutĩtwo.
34 Until the day this they [are] doing according to the customs former not they [are] fearing Yahweh and not they [are] doing according to statutes their and according to judgment their and according to the law and according to the commandment which he commanded Yahweh [the] descendants of Jacob whom he made name his Israel.
Nginyagia ũmũthĩ matũire marũmĩtie mĩtugo yao ya tene. Nao matihooyaga Jehova kana gwathĩkĩra irĩra cia watho wake wa kũrũmĩrĩrwo, na matuĩro marĩa matuĩtwo, na watho na maathani marĩa Jehova aaheire njiaro cia Jakubu, ũrĩa aatuire Isiraeli.
35 And he made Yahweh with them a covenant and he commanded them saying not you must fear gods other and not you must bow down to them and not you must serve them and not you must sacrifice to them.
Rĩrĩa Jehova aarĩkanĩire kĩrĩkanĩro na andũ a Isiraeli-rĩ, aamaathire atĩrĩ: “Mũtikanahooe ngai ingĩ, kana mũciinamĩrĩre, kana mũcitungatĩre, kana mũcirutĩre igongona.
36 That except Yahweh who he brought up you from [the] land of Egypt with power great and by an arm outstretched him you will fear and to him you will bow down and to him you will sacrifice.
No Jehova ũrĩa wamũrutire bũrũri wa Misiri na hinya mũnene na atambũrũkĩtie guoko gwake, ũcio nowe wiki mwagĩrĩirwo nĩkũhooyaga. Nĩwe mũrĩinamagĩrĩra, na nĩwe mũrĩrutagĩra magongona.
37 And the statutes and the judgments and the law and the commandment which he wrote for you you will take care! to do all the days and not you must fear gods other.
Hĩndĩ ciothe no nginya mũmenyagĩrĩre kĩrĩra kĩa watho wake wa kũrũmĩrĩrwo na matuĩro marĩa matuĩtwo, na mawatho, o na maathani marĩa aamwandĩkĩire. Mũtikanahooe ngai ingĩ.
38 And the covenant which I made with you not you must forget and not you must fear gods other.
Mũtikariganĩrwo nĩ kĩrĩkanĩro kĩrĩa ndaarĩkanĩire na inyuĩ, na mũtikanahooe ngai ingĩ.
39 That except Yahweh God your you will fear and he he will deliver you from [the] hand of all enemies your.
No rĩrĩ, mũhooyage Jehova Ngai wanyu; tondũ nĩwe ũkaamũkũũra guoko-inĩ gwa thũ cianyu ciothe.”
40 And not they listened that except according to custom their former they [were] doing.
No rĩrĩ, matiigana kũnjigua, no maathiire o na mbere na mĩtugo yao ya tene.
41 And they were - the nations these fearing Yahweh and idols their they were serving also children their - and [the] children of children their just as they did fathers their they [are] doing until the day this.
O na rĩrĩa andũ acio mahooyaga Jehova, no maatungatagĩra ngai ciao cia mĩhianano. Nginyagia ũmũthĩ ciana ciao na ciana cia ciana ciao ithiiaga na mbere gwĩka o ta ũrĩa maithe mao meekaga.
