2 Chronicles 33
1 Manasseh was 12 years old when he became the king [of Judah], and he ruled from Jerusalem for 55 years.
Manasseh el yac singoul luo ke el tokosrala lun Judah, ac el leum in Jerusalem ke yac lumngaul limekosr.
2 He did many things that Yahweh considered to be evil. He imitated the disgusting things that were formerly done by the people-groups that Yahweh had expelled from Israel as his people advanced [though the land].
Manasseh el oru ma koluk lain LEUM GOD, in oana ouiya fohkfok lun mutanfahl su LEUM GOD El luselosla liki facl sac ke pacl mwet lal ah akola in utyak nu we.
3 He commanded his workers to rebuild the shrines [for worshiping idols] that his father Hezekiah had destroyed. He told them to set up altars to [honor] the statues of Baal, and to make altars to [honor the goddess] Asherah. He bowed down to [worship] all the stars.
El sifilpa musaela acn in alu lun mwet pegan ma Hezekiah, papa tumal, el tuh kunausla. Ac el musaela loang in alu nu sel Baal, ac orala ma sruloala ke god mutan Asherah, ac el alu nu ke itu uh.
4 He directed his workers to build altars [for foreign gods] in the temple, about which Yahweh had said, “It is here in Jerusalem that I want people to worship me, forever.”
El musaela loang lun mwet pegan in Tempul, acn se na ma LEUM GOD El fahk mu mwet uh in alu nu sel we nwe tok.
5 He directed that altars for [worshiping] all the stars be built in both of the courtyards outside the temple.
Ke nien tukeni luo inkul lun Tempul, el musaela loang in alu nu ke itu uh.
6 He even sacrificed [some of] his own sons and burned them in a fire in Hinnom Valley. He performed rituals to practice sorcery. He asked fortune-tellers for advice. He performed witchcraft. He talked to people who consulted the spirits of people who had died to find out what would happen in the future. He did many things that Yahweh considered o be very evil, things that caused Yahweh to become very angry.
El kisakunla wen natul in mwe kisa firir ke Infahlfal Hinnom. Oayapa el sramsram nu sin ngun fohkfok ac orek mwenmen in kiapu mwet. El som nu yurin mwet inutnut, mwet susfa, ac mwet sramsram nu sin mwet misa. El oru ma koluk na yohk lain LEUM GOD, ac akkasrkusrakyal.
7 Manasseh took a carved idol [that his workers had made] and put it in the temple. That is the temple concerning which God had said to David and to his son Solomon, “My temple will be here in Jerusalem, the city that I have chosen [where I want people to] worship me, forever.
El likiya sie ma sruloala in Tempul, acn se ma LEUM GOD El tuh fahk kac nu sel David ac nu sel Solomon wen natul, mu, “In acn se inge Jerusalem, ac in Tempul se inge, pa acn se ma nga sulela inmasrlon acn nukewa lun sruf singoul luo in Israel, tuh in pa acn se mwet uh in alu nu sik we.
8 If they will obey all the laws and decrees and regulations that I told Moses to give to them, I will not again force the Israeli people to leave this land that I gave to their ancestors.”
Ac mwet Israel fin akos ma nukewa nga sapkin nu selos, ac karinganang Ma Sap nukewa su Moses, mwet kulansap luk, el sang nu selos, na nga ac fah tia lela in lisyukla elos liki facl se su nga sang nu sin papa matu tumalos.”
9 But Manasseh led the people of Jerusalem and other places in Judah to do things that are wrong, with the result that they did more evil than was done by the people in the people-groups that Yahweh had expelled as the Israeli people advanced [through the land].
Manasseh el kolla mwet Judah in oru ma koluk yohk liki ma koluk lun mutunfacl saya ma LEUM GOD El tuh lusla liki acn ma mwet lal elos fahsryak nu we.
10 Yahweh spoke to Manasseh and the people of Judah, but they paid no attention.
LEUM GOD El sensenkakunul Manasseh ac mwet lal, a elos tia lungse lohng.
11 So Yahweh caused the army commanders of Assyria [and their soldiers] to [come to Jerusalem, and they] captured Manasseh. They put a hook in his nose and put bronze chains on his [feet] and took him to Babylon.
Ouinge LEUM GOD El lela mwet kol fulat lun mwet mweun lun Assyria in utyak ac mweuni acn Judah. Elos sruokilya Manasseh, sang ka uh srumasrla manol ac kaprilya ac usalla nu Babylon.
12 There, while he was suffering, he humbled himself greatly in the presence of Yahweh, the God whom his ancestors [worshiped], and pleaded with Yahweh to help him.
Keok lulap lal akpusiselyal, ac el forla nu sin LEUM GOD lal, ac kwafe tuh Elan kasrel.
13 When he prayed, Yahweh heard him and pitied him. So he [allowed him to] return to Jerusalem and [to] rule his kingdom again. Then Manasseh realized that Yahweh is [an all-powerful] God.
Ac God El insese nu ke mwe siyuk lal, ac lela tuh elan folokla nu Jerusalem ac sifilpa leumi mwet uh. Ma inge akkalemye nu sel Manasseh lah LEUM GOD El God.
14 Later, Manasseh’s [workers] rebuilt the eastern section of the outer wall around Jerusalem, and [they] made it higher. That section extended from Gihon Spring [north] to the Fish Gate, and around the part of the city that they called Ophel [Hill]. Manasseh also appointed army officers to guard each of the cities in Judah that had walls around them.
Tukun ma inge Manasseh el sifilpa laesla fulatan pot se lik ma oan kutulap in Siti sel David, mutawauk ke sie acn ke infahlfal se apkuran nu ke Unon in Kof Gihon, ac fahla nu epang nu ke Mutunpot Ik, ke ipin acn se ke siti uh ma pangpang Ophel. In kais sie siti in acn Judah ma oasr pot ku we, el supwala un mwet mweun in muta we wi captain lalos.
15 Manasseh’s [workers] removed from the temple the idols and the stone statues of gods of other nations. Manasseh also [told them to] remove the altars that they had previously built on Zion Hill and in [other places in] Jerusalem. He had all those things thrown out of the city.
El srakla god lun mutunfacl saya liki Tempul, ac ma sruloala se ma el tuh filiya we, oayapa loang lun mwet pegan ma oan ke inging soko Tempul ah oan we, ac in kutu pacna acn saya in acn Jerusalem. El usla ma inge nukewa nu likin siti uh, ac sisla we.
16 Then he [told them to] repair the altar of Yahweh, and he offered sacrifices to restore fellowship with Yahweh and to thank him. And he told [the people of] Judah that they must worship [only] Yahweh.
El oayapa akwoyela loang se ma mwet uh alu nu sin LEUM GOD we, ac el kisakin mwe kisa in akinsewowo ac mwe kisa in sang kulo fac. El sapkin nu sin mwet Judah nukewa in alu nu sin LEUM GOD lun Israel.
17 The people continued to offer sacrifices on the hilltops, but only to Yahweh their God.
Mwet uh finne orek kisa in kutu pac acn in alu saya, tuh kisa lalos uh ma na nu sin LEUM GOD mukena.
18 The other things that happened while Manasseh was ruling, including his prayer to God and the messages from Yahweh that the prophets gave to him, are written in the scroll called ‘The History of the Kings of Israel’.
Ma nukewa saya ma Manasseh el oru, wi pac pre lal nu sin LEUM GOD ac kas lun mwet palu su kaskas nu sel Inen LEUM GOD lun Israel, ma inge nukewa simla in [Sramsram Matu Ke Tokosra Lun Israel].
19 What Manasseh prayed and how God pitied him because he pleaded to God, and also his sins and ways in which he disobeyed God, and the [list of] places where he built shrines and set up poles to [honor the goddess] Asherah and other idols [before he humbled himself], are written in what the prophets wrote.
Pre lun tokosra, ac top lun LEUM GOD nu sel, ac srumunyen ma koluk el orala meet liki el auliyak — aok, orekma koluk lal, ac acn in alu lun mwet pegan su el musaela, ac ma sruloala in luman god mutan Asherah ma el orala, ac ma sruloala saya ma el alu nu kac — simla nufon ke [Sramsram Matu Lun Mwet Palu].
20 Manasseh died and was buried in his palace. Then his son Amon became the king [of Judah].
Manasseh el misa ac pukpuki ke lohm sin tokosra, ac Amon wen natul, el aolul in tokosra.
21 Amon was 22 years old when he became king, and he ruled in Jerusalem for two years.
Amon el yac longoul luo ke el tokosrala lun Judah, ac el leum in Jerusalem ke yac luo.
22 He did things that Yahweh considered to be evil, like his father Manasseh had done. Amon worshiped all the idols that Manasseh’s [workers] had made.
El oru ma koluk lain LEUM GOD, oana Manasseh, papa tumal ah oru, ac el alu pac nu ke ma sruloala ma papa tumal el tuh alu nu kac.
23 But he did not humble himself and turn to Yahweh like his father did. So he became more sinful than his father had been.
Tusruktu el tia oana papa tumal ah, mweyen el tiana akpusiselyal ac forla nu sin LEUM GOD, ac ma koluk lal uh yohk liki na papa tumal ah.
24 Then Amon’s officials made plans to kill him. They assassinated him in his palace.
Mwet pwapa lal Amon elos orek pwapa koluk lainul, ac unilya in lohm sin tokosra.
25 But then the people of Judah killed all those who had assassinated Amon, and they appointed his son Josiah to be their king.
Ac mwet Judah elos uniya mwet ma tuh unilya Amon, ac srakulak Josiah, wen natul, in tokosra.
