2 Chronicles 16
1 When Asa had been ruling [Judah] for almost 36 years, King Baasha of Israel went [with his army] to attack Judah. They [captured the town of] Ramah [north of Jerusalem] and started to build a wall around [it], in order to prevent any people from entering or leaving the area in Judah that was ruled by King Asa [because the only road into Judah from Israel went through Ramah].
Asa'ma 36si'a kafuma Juda vahe kinima nemanigeno'a, Israeli vahe kini ne' Basa'a Juda vahera hara eme huzmanteno, Rama kumate sondia vahe'amofo kumara eme kintege'za sondia vahe'mo'za mani'ne'za kegava hazageno, Juda kini ne' Asa mopafina mago vahe'mo'e huno ufrege, atiramigera osu'ne.
2 So Asa told his workers to take all the silver and gold that was in the storerooms of the temple and in his own palace, and take and give it to Ben-Hadad, the king of Syria, who was ruling in Damascus. [He sent him a message, ] saying
Ana'ma higeno'a Asa'a Ra Anumzamofo nompinti'ene agra nompintira goline mago'a silvanena erino Siria kini ne' Ben-Hadati'ma Damaskasima nemanirega atregeno nevigeno, amanage huno hu'ne,
3 “I want there to be a peace treaty between me and you, like there was between my father and your father. Look, I am sending you [a lot of] silver and gold. So please cancel the treaty that you have 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].”
Amanahu nagesa nentahue, ko'ma nerfakema hu'na'aza huta mago trimpa huta maninu'a ke huvempa huta huhagerafinu'egu silvane golinena kagritega atregantogeno vie. Hagi vunka Israeli kini ne' Basa'enema huhagerafina'a nanekea ome vakanetregeno natreno vino.
4 Ben-Hadad agreed to do what King Asa [suggested]. He sent the commanders of his armies [with their soldiers] to attack some of the towns in Israel. They captured Ijon, Dan, Abel-Beth-Maacah and all the cities in the area belonging to the tribe of Naphtali where supplies were kept.
Hagi Ben-Hadati'a Asa'ma hiankea nentahino, sondia vahe kva vahetami huzmantege'za Israeli rankumatmimpi vahetmina hara huzmante'za Ijoni rankuma'ma, Dani rankuma'ma, Abel-Maimi rankuma'enena e'nerino, ne'zama eritruma nehaza rankumatmima Naftali mopafima me'neana maka zamahe'za hanare'naze.
5 When Baasha heard about that, he [commanded his troops to] stop fortifying Ramah and doing other work there.
Hagi ana nanekema Ba'asa'ma nentahino'a, Rama kuma'ma negia eri'zana atregeno anante me'ne.
6 Then King Asa gathered all the men of Judah, and they took away from Ramah all the stones and timber that Baasha’s men had been using [to build the wall around that town]. They took those materials to [the town of] Geba and [the city of] Mizpah [north of Jerusalem] and built walls around them.
Ana higeno kini ne' Asa'a maka Juda vahetaminku ke hige'za, Rama kuma'ma eri hanavetino kinaku'ma haveramine zafaraminema eri atruma hu'nea zantamina, eri'za vazageno ana havereti'ene zafareti Geba kuma'ene Mizpa kuma'enena eri hanavetino ki'ne.
7 At that time the prophet Hanani went to King Asa and said to him, “Because you relied on the king of Syria and not on Yahweh our God, you missed your opportunity to destroy the army of the king of Syria.
Hagi ana kna zupa kasnampa ne' Hanani'a Juda kini ne' Asante eno amanage huno eme asmi'ne, Ra Anumzana kagri Anumzamofontera kamentintia osananki, atrenka Siria kini ne'mofonte kamentintia hankeno, Siria kini ne'mofo sondia vahe'mo'za katre'za fraze.
8 The huge armies from Ethiopia and Libya with all their chariots and soldiers [riding] on horses [were certainly very powerful. But] when you relied on Yahweh, he enabled your army to defeat them.
Hagi Itiopia vahe'ene Libia vahemo'zanena rama'a sondia vahe nezmante'za rama'a karisine hosifima mani'ne'zama ha'ma hu vahera rama'a zamante'naze. Hianagi kagra Ra Anumzamofonte kamentinti hu'nanku, Ra Anumzamo zamavare kazampina zamante'genka hara huzmagatere'nane.
9 That happened because Yahweh sees [what is happening] all over the earth, and he strengthens those who completely trust him. You have done a very foolish thing, so from now on other armies will be fighting your army.”
Na'ankure Ra Anumzamo'a ama mopafina maka kaziga avua anteno omege emege nehuno, i'zano agu'amo'a knare huno Agrite'ma rutragote'nesia vahe zamaza nehuno zamazeri hanavetinaku tro huno mani'ne. Hagi kagra neginagi'za hananki'za, ha' vahe'mo'za hara eme huramante vava hu'za vugahaze.
10 Asa was very angry with the prophet because of what the prophet had said. So he [commanded his officials to] put Hanani in prison. At that same time, he started to treat some of his people very cruelly.
Anage higeno Asa'a ana kasnampa nekura tusi rimpa ahenenteno, azerino kina nompi ante'ne. Na'ankure ana ke'arera tusi arimpa ahente'ne. Ana nehuno tusiza huno mago'a Juda vahetmina Asa'a zamazeri haviza hu'ne.
11 All the things that Asa did while he was ruling, from the time he started to rule until he died, are written in the scroll containing the record of the [activities of the] kings of Judah and Israel.
Hagi Asa'ma kinima mani'neno'ma hu'nea zantmimofo agenkea, agafama hu'nereti'ma vuno atumpare'ma uhanati'neana maka Juda kini vahe'ene Israeli kini vahetmimofo zamagenkema krenentaza avontafepi krente'naze.
12 When Asa had been ruling for almost 39 years, he was afflicted with a disease in his feet. The disease was very severe, but in spite of that, he did not request help from Yahweh. Instead he sought help only from doctors.
Hagi Asa'ma 39ni'a kafuma kinima nemanino'a, agafi kria efore higeno ana kri'amo'a ome ra hu'ne. Hagi ana krimo'ma ome rama nehigeno'a, Ra Anumzamofona antahigeno azahu zana e'orineanki, dota vahetegatike zmantahigeno azama hu zana eri'ne.
13 When he had been ruling for almost 40 years, he died.
Ana nehuno Asa'a 41ni'a kafu kinia maniteno frige'za afahe'ima asezmante'nazafi asente'naze.
14 He was buried in the tomb that his workers had made for him in [the part of Jerusalem called] ‘The City of David’. They laid his corpse on a bed covered with spices and various perfumes that had been mixed together. They also lit a huge fire to honor him.
Hagi anama asemante'nazana agra'a hanagatinte'nea havegampi Deviti rankumapi Jerusalemi asente'naze. Hagi havegampina mnanentake'za atre'za eri mana nevu'za megi'a tusi teve hugre'za mani'neza zamasunkura hu'naze.
