1 Kings 15
1 After Jeroboam had been the king of Israel for almost 18 years, Abijah became the king of Judah.
Isala: ili fi ilia hina bagade Yelouboua: me da ode18 ouligilalu, Abaidia da Yuda fi ilia hina bagade hamoi.
2 He ruled for three years in Jerusalem. His mother’s name was Maacah, the granddaughter of [David’s son] Absalom.
E da ode udiana Yelusaleme moilai bai bagadega esala, Yuda fi ouligilalu. Ea ame da Ma: iaga (A: basolome ea idiwi).
3 Abijah committed the same kind of sins that his father had committed. He was not fully dedicated/committed to Yahweh his God, as his grandfather David had been.
E da ea ada ea wadela: i hou hamosu defele hamoi. Ea ada aowa Da: ibidi da mae fisili, Hina Godema fa: no bobogelalu. Be e da amo defele hame hamoi.
4 But, because of [what Yahweh his God had promised to] David, Yahweh gave Abijah a son [MET] to rule in Jerusalem after him, and in order to protect Jerusalem [from their enemies].
Be ea Hina Gode da Da: ibidima asigiba: le, Hina Gode da Abaidiama e bagia Yuda fi ilia hina dunu hamoma: ne amola Yelusaleme ganodini esaloma: ne amola gaga: ma: ne, Abaidiama mano i.
5 Yahweh did that because David had always done what pleased Yahweh and because David had always obeyed Yahweh. The only time when he disobeyed Yahweh was when he caused Uriah [to be killed].
Hina Gode da agoane hamoi bai Da: ibidi da Ema nodoma: ne hamoi amola Ema Ea hamoma: ne sia: i amoga hame nabasu hou hame hamoi. E da hame nabasu hou afae fawane hamoi. Amo e da Iulaia (Hidaide dunu) ema fawane wadela: le hamoi.
6 There were wars between [the armies of] Rehoboam and Jeroboam all during the time that Abijah ruled.
Gegesu mui amo da Lihouboua: me amola Yelouboua: me ela ouligibi ganodini ba: i, amo da Abaidia ea esalusu amo galu gebewane gegenanusu.
7 Everything else that Abijah did is written [RHQ] in the scroll called ‘The History of the Kings of Judah’.
Amola Abaidia ea hamonanusu hou huluane da “Yuda hina bagade ilia Hamonanusu Meloa’ amo ganodini dedene legei.
8 Abijah died [EUP] and was buried in [the part of Jerusalem called] ‘The City of David’, and his son Asa became king.
Abaidia da bogobeba: le, Da: ibidi Moilai Bai Bagade amo ganodini uli dogone sali. Amola, egefe A: isa da e bagia, Yuda fi ilia hina bagade hamoi.
9 After Jeroboam had been the king of Israel for almost 20 years, Asa started to rule Judah.
Isala: ili hina bagade Yelouboua: me da ode 20 Isala: ili soge ouligilalu, A:isa da Yuda fi ilia hina bagade hamoi.
10 He ruled in Jerusalem for 41 years. His grandmother was Maacah, the granddaughter of Absalom.
E da Yelusaleme moilai bai bagadega esala, ode 41agoanega, Isala: ili fi ouligilalu. Ea aya: da Ma: iga (A: basalome ea idiwi).
11 Asa did what was pleasing to Yahweh, as his ancestor David had done.
A: isa da Hina Gode Ea nodoma: ne, ea aowa Da: ibidi ea hamoi amo defele hamoi.
12 He got rid of the male prostitutes that were at the places where the people worshiped idols, and he also got rid of all the idols that his ancestors had made.
E da Yuda Soge ganodini hina: da: iga bidi lasu uda amola dunu huluane amo da ogogole ‘gode’ loboga hahamoi, ilima nodone sia: ne gadolalu, amo huluane gadili sefafasi. A: isa da ogogole loboga hamoi ‘gode’ ea adalalia hahamoi, amo huluane gadili fadegale fafasi.
13 He also removed his grandmother Maacah so that she no longer had influence in the government [because of] being the mother of a previous king. He did that because she had made a disgusting [wooden] statue of the goddess Asherah. Asa [told his workers to] cut down the statue and burned it in the Kidron Valley.
A: isa da ea aya: Ma: iga (e da ‘uda hina bagade eme’, ilia da sia: su) ea sogebi amo fadegai. Bai Ma: iga da gogosiasu bagade liligi (mano lama: ne ogogole uda ‘gode’, Asila ema sia: ne gadosu-amo agoaila) amo hahamoi. A: isa da amo loboga hamoi liligi amo dadamuni sanawene, Gidalone Fago amoga ulagili sali.
14 He was not able to destroy all the places where the people worshiped [idols] on the high hills, but he continued to be dedicated/committed to Yahweh his entIre life.
A: isa da ogogole ‘gode’ma nodone sia: ne gadosu sogebi bagohame mugului. Be mogili hame wadela: lesi. Be e da Hina Godema mololewane fa: no bobogelalu.
15 He [told his workers to] place in the temple all the items that his father had dedicated to God, and all the gold and silver things that he had dedicated to God.
E da Debolo diasu ganodini, liligi huluane ea ada da Godema ilegele i, amola gouli amola silifa liligi e da hisu Godema ilegele i, amo huluane Debolo diasu ganodini ligisi.
16 There were wars between [the armies of] Asa and Baasha, the king of Israel, all during the time that they ruled.
Yuda hina bagade A: isa amola Isala: ili hina bagade Ba: iasia da ela ouligibi amo ganodini, gebewane gegenanusu.
17 Baasha’s army invaded Judah. They captured Ramah [town north of Jerusalem]. Then they started to build a wall around it in order to prevent people from entering or leaving the area in Judah that was ruled by King Asa.
Ba: iasia da Yuda soge doagala: le, golili sa: ili, e da Yuda gadili ahoasu logo ga: ma: ne, muni La: ima moilai gagili sali.
18 So Asa [told] his workers [to] take all the silver and gold that was still in the storerooms in the temple and in the palace. He told them to take it to Damascus and give it to King Ben-Hadad who ruled Syria. Ben-Hadad was the son of Tabrimmon and grandson of Hezion. He told the workers to say this to Ben-Hadad:
Amaiba: le, hina bagade A: isa da silifa amola gouli huluane Debolo amola hina bagade diasu amo ganodini hame lai dialebe ba: i, amo lale, ea eagene ouligisu dunu ilia Dama: saga: se moilai, Silia hina bagade Beneha: ida: de (Da: balimone egefe amola Hisione ea aowa) ema imunusa: gaguli masa: ne sia: i. Amola e da ilia ema amane sia: ma: ne sia: si,
19 “I want there to be a peace treaty between you and me, like there was between your father and my father. For that reason, I am giving you this silver and gold. So now please cancel the treaty that you made with Baasha, the king of Israel, in order that he will take his soldiers away from attacking mine, [because he will be afraid of your army].”
“Ani da anianini, ania adalali defele, dogolegemu da defea. Amo silifa amola gouli da digili hahawane udigili iasu. Wali di amola Isala: ili hina bagade Ba: iasia alialisu gousa: su hamoi amo damuma. Amasea, e da ea dadi gagui dunu na soge ganodini asunasili esala, amo fadegale fasima.”
20 [So the workers went and gave the message to] Ben-Hadad, [and he] did what Asa suggested. He sent his army commanders [and their soldiers] to attack some of the towns in Israel. They captured Ijon, Dan, Abel-Beth-Maacah, the area near Galilee Lake, and all the land of [the tribe of] Naphtali.
Hina bagade Beneha: ida: de da A: isa ea sia: i hahawane ba: i. Amaiba: le, e da ea dadi gagui wa: i ouligisu dunu amola dadi gagui dunu ilia Isala: ili moilale gagale fi amo ilima doagala: ma: ne, asunasi. Ilia da Aidione, Da: ne, A:ibele Bede Ma: iga moilale gagai, amola Ga: lili Hano Wayabo beba: le soge amola Na: fadalai soge huluane fefedele lai.
21 When Baasha heard about that, he [told his soldiers to] stop working at Ramah. He [and his soldiers returned to] Tirzah [and] stayed there.
Hina bagade Ba: iasia da amo hamoi sia: nababeba: le, La: ima moilai gagili salalu, amo yolesili, Desa moilai bai bagadega asi.
22 Then King Asa sent a message to all the [people in the] towns in Judah, stating that they all were required to go to Ramah and carry away the stones and timber that Baasha’s soldiers had been using to build a wall around the city. With those stones and timber they fortified Mizpah [city north of Jerusalem], and Geba, [a town] in the territory of the tribe of Benjamin.
Amalalu, hina bagade A: isa da Yuda soge ganodini amo dunu huluanedafa da igi amola gele amoga Ba: iasia da La: ima gagili sali, amo gaguli masa: ne sia: si. Amo liligi lale, A:isa da Bediamini soge moilai Giba amola Misiba moilai, amo gagili sali.
23 Everything else that Asa did, the armies that his soldiers defeated, and the names of the cities that he caused to be fortified, are [RHQ] written in the scroll called ‘The History of the Kings of Judah’. But when Asa became old, he got a disease in his feet.
Hou huluane hina bagade A: isa hamoi, ea gesa: i hamonanu amola moilai bai bagade e da gagili sali, amo huluane da “Yuda hina bagade ilia Hamonanu Meloa” amo ganodini dedene legei. Be e da da: i hamobeba: le, e da olobeba: le, emo gasuga: igi.
24 He died [EUP] and was buried where his ancestors were buried in [the part of Jerusalem called] ‘The City of David’. Then his son Jehoshaphat became king.
A: isa da bogobeba: le, ilia da e hina bagade uli dogosu sogebi, Da: ibidi Moilai Bai Bagade, amo ganodini dogone sali. Amola egefe Yihosiafa: de e da A: isa e bagia hina bagade hou lai.
25 After Asa had been the king of Judah for almost two years, King Jeroboam’s son Nadab started to rule Israel. He ruled for two years.
Yuda hina bagade A: isa da ode ageyadu Yuda fi ouligilalu, Na: ida: be (hina bagade Yelouboua: me egefe) e da Isala: ili ouligisu hina bagade hamoi. E da ode aduna ouligilalu.
26 He did things that Yahweh considered to be evil. His behavior was sinful like his father’s behavior had been, and what he did led the people of Israel to sin.
E da ea ada ea hou defele, Hina Godema wadela: le hamoi. Amola e da Isala: ili dunu wadela: le hamoma: ne, oule asi.
27 [A man named] Baasha, from the tribe of Issachar, planned to harm him. He killed Nadab when Nadab and his army had surrounded Gibbethon [city] in the Philistia area.
Ba: iasia (Isaga fi dunu amola Ahaidia egefe) e da Na: ida: be medomusa: , sadoga sia: dalu ilegei. Na: ida: be amola ea dadi gagui wa: i, ilia da Filisidini fi moilai bai bagade Gibidonega doagala: loba, Ba: iasia da Na: ida: be medole legei.
28 That [DOU] was when Asa had been [the king ruling] Judah for almost three years. Then Baasha became the king of Israel.
Amo hou da Yuda hina bagade A: isa ea ouligibi ode osodayale amoga ba: i. Amaiba: le, Ba: iasia da Na: ida: be bagia Yuda hina bagade hamoi.
29 As soon as Baasha became king, [he commanded his soldiers to] kill all of Jeroboam’s family. Doing what Yahweh had told the prophet Ahijah from Shiloh would happen, they killed all of Jeroboam’s family. None of them (was left/remained alive).
Ha amogalawane, e da muni Yelouboua: me ea sosogo fi medole lelegelalu. Hina Gode da Ea hawa: hamosu balofede dunu Ahaidia (Siailou moilai fi dunu) amo ea lafidili sia: i defele, Yelouboua: me ea sosogo fi dunu huluanedafa da medole legei dagoi ba: i.
30 That happened because Yahweh had become very angry with Jeroboam because of all the sins that Jeroboam had committed, and because of the sins that he had persuaded the people of Israel to commit.
Amo hou doaga: i ea bai da Yelouboua: me da Isala: ili Hina Gode ougima: ne, wadela: le bagade hamoi, amola Isala: ili fi wadela: le hamoma: ne oule asi.
31 Everything else that Nadab did is written [RHQ] in the scroll called ‘The History of the Kings of Israel’.
Na: ida: be ea hamoi huluane da “Isala: ili hina bagade ilia Hamonanusu Meloa” amo ganodini dedene legei.
32 There were wars between [the armies of] King Asa and King Baasha all the time that they ruled.
Yuda hina bagade A: isa amola Isala: ili hina bagade Ba: iasia ela da elawa ouligisu eso amoga gebewane gegenanusu.
33 After Asa had been the king of Judah for almost three years, Baasha, the son of Ahijah, started to rule Israel at Tirzah [city]. He ruled for 24 years.
Yuda hina bagade A: isa ea ouligibi ode osodayale ganodini, Ba: iasia (Ahaidia egefe) da Isala: ili ilia hina bagade hamoi. E da Desa amo ganodini esala, ode 24agoane ouligilalu.
34 He did things that Yahweh considered to be evil, and his behavior was sinful like his father’s had been, and he led the people of Israel to sin.
E da hina bagade Yelouboua: me ea hidadea hamoi defele, Hina Godema wadela: le hamonanu, amola Isala: ili fi wadela: le hamoma: ne oule asi.
