2 Chronicles 33
1 Manasseh was 12 years old when he became the king [of Judah], and he ruled from Jerusalem for 55 years.
Manase jẹ́ ọmọ ọdún méjìlá nígbà tí ó di ọba. Ó sì jẹ ọba ní Jerusalẹmu fún ọdún márùndínlọ́gọ́ta.
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].
Ó sì ṣe búburú ní ojú Olúwa. Nípa títẹ̀lé ọ̀nà iṣẹ́ ìríra ti àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè tí Olúwa ti lé jáde níwájú àwọn ọmọ Israẹli rìn.
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.
Ó tún kọ́ àwọn ibi gíga tí baba rẹ̀ Hesekiah ti fọ́ túútúú. Ó sì gbé àwọn pẹpẹ dìde fún àwọn Baali ó sì ṣe àwọn ère Aṣerah. Ó foríbalẹ̀ fún gbogbo àwọn ogun ọ̀run ó sì sìn wọ́n.
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.”
Ó kọ́ àwọn pẹpẹ sínú ilé Olúwa ní èyí tí Olúwa ti wí pé, “Orúkọ mi yóò wà ní Jerusalẹmu títí láé.”
5 He directed that altars for [worshiping] all the stars be built in both of the courtyards outside the temple.
Nínú ààfin méjèèje ti ilé Olúwa, ó kọ́ àwọn pẹpẹ fún gbogbo àwọn ogun ọ̀run
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.
Ó sì mú kí àwọn ọmọ ara rẹ̀ kí ó kọjá láàrín iná ní àfonífojì Beni-Hinnomu, ó ń ṣe àkíyèsí àfọ̀ṣẹ, ó sì ń lo àlúpàyídà, ó sì ń bá àwọn òku àti oṣó lò. Ó ṣe ọ̀pọ̀ ohun búburú ní ojú Olúwa láti mú un bínú.
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.
Ó mú ère gbígbẹ́ tí ó ti gbẹ́ ó sì gbé e sínú ilé Olúwa, ní èyí tí Ọlọ́run ti sọ fún Dafidi àti sí ọmọ rẹ̀ Solomoni, “Nínú ilé Olúwa yìí àti ní Jerusalẹmu, tí mo ti yàn kúrò nínú gbogbo àwọn ẹ̀yà Israẹli, èmi yóò fi orúkọ mi síbẹ̀ títí láé.
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.”
Èmi kì yóò ṣí ẹsẹ̀ àwọn ọmọ Israẹli kúrò mọ́ ní ilẹ̀ náà tí èmi ti yàn fún àwọn baba ńlá yín, níwọ̀n bí wọ́n bá ṣe pẹ̀lẹ́ láti ṣe gbogbo ohun tí mo paláṣẹ fún wọn, gẹ́gẹ́ bí gbogbo òfin, àṣẹ àti àwọn ìlànà tí a fún yín láti ọwọ́ Mose wá.”
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].
Ṣùgbọ́n Manase mú kí Juda àti àwọn tí ń gbé Jerusalẹmu yapa, àti láti ṣe búburú ju àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè lọ, àwọn tí Olúwa ti parun níwájú àwọn ọmọ Israẹli.
10 Yahweh spoke to Manasseh and the people of Judah, but they paid no attention.
Olúwa bá Manase sọ̀rọ̀ àti àwọn ènìyàn rẹ̀, ṣùgbọ́n wọn kò kọbi ara sí i.
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.
Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni Olúwa mú àwọn alákòóso ọmọ-ogun ọba Asiria láti dojúkọ wọ́n, tí ó mú Manase nígbèkùn, ó fi ìwọ̀ mú un ní imú rẹ̀, ó dè é pẹ̀lú ṣẹ́kẹ́ṣẹkẹ̀ idẹ ó sì mú un lọ sí Babeli.
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.
Nínú ìpọ́njú rẹ̀, ó wá ojúrere Olúwa Ọlọ́run rẹ̀. Ó sì rẹ ara rẹ̀ sílẹ̀ gidigidi níwájú Ọlọ́run àwọn baba rẹ̀.
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.
Nígbà tí ó sì gbàdúrà sí i, inú Olúwa dùn sí àdúrà rẹ̀, ó sì tẹ́tí sí ẹ̀bẹ̀ rẹ̀; bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ó mú un padà wá sí Jerusalẹmu àti sí ìjọba rẹ̀. Nígbà náà Manase mọ̀ wí pé Olúwa ni Ọlọ́run.
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.
Ǹjẹ́ lẹ́yìn èyí, ó mọ odi kan lẹ́yìn ìlú Dafidi, ní ìhà ìwọ̀-oòrùn Gihoni, ní àfonífojì, àní ní àtiwọ ẹnu ibodè ẹja, ó sì yí orí òkè Ofeli ká; ó sì mọ ọ́n ga sókè gidigidi, ó sì fi balógun sínú gbogbo ìlú olódi Juda wọ̀n-ọn-nì.
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.
Ó pa gbogbo àwọn Ọlọ́run àjèjì run. Ó sì hú gbogbo àwọn ère kúrò nínú ilé Olúwa, pẹ̀lú gbogbo àwọn pẹpẹ tí ó ti kọ́ ní òkè ilé Olúwa àti ní Jerusalẹmu; ó sì kó wọn jáde kúrò nínú ìlú.
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.
Nígbà náà ni ó mú àwọn pẹpẹ padà bọ̀ sípò. Ó sì rú ọrẹ ìdàpọ̀ àti ọrẹ-ọpẹ́ lórí rẹ̀. Ó sì sọ fún Juda láti sin Olúwa, Ọlọ́run Israẹli.
17 The people continued to offer sacrifices on the hilltops, but only to Yahweh their God.
Àwọn ènìyàn, ko tẹ̀síwájú láti máa rú ẹbọ ní àwọn ibi gíga. Ṣùgbọ́n sí Olúwa Ọlọ́run wọn nìkan.
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’.
Àwọn iṣẹ́ yòókù ti ìjọba Manase pẹ̀lú àdúrà rẹ̀ sí Ọlọ́run rẹ̀ àti àwọn ọ̀rọ̀ tí àwọn aríran sọ sí i ní orúkọ Olúwa, Ọlọ́run Israẹli, wà nínú ìwé ìtàn ayé àwọn ọba Israẹli.
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.
Àdúrà rẹ̀ àti bí inú Ọlọ́run ṣe dùn sí àdúrà rẹ̀ àti gbogbo àwọn ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ rẹ̀ àti àìṣòótọ́, àti àwọn òpó níbi tí ó kọ́ àwọn ibi gíga sí, ó sì gbé àwọn ère Aṣerah àti àwọn òrìṣà kí ó tó rẹ ara rẹ̀ sílẹ̀, gbogbo rẹ̀ ni a kọ sínú ìwé ìrántí àwọn aríran.
20 Manasseh died and was buried in his palace. Then his son Amon became the king [of Judah].
Manase sinmi pẹ̀lú àwọn baba rẹ̀, a sì sin ín sínú ààfin rẹ̀. Amoni ọmọ rẹ̀ sì rọ́pò rẹ̀ gẹ́gẹ́ bí ọba.
21 Amon was 22 years old when he became king, and he ruled in Jerusalem for two years.
Amoni jẹ́ ẹni ọdún méjìlélógún nígbà tí ó di ọba. Ó sì jẹ ọba ní Jerusalẹmu fún ọdún méjì.
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.
Ó ṣe búburú ní ojú Olúwa, gẹ́gẹ́ bí baba rẹ̀ Manase ti ṣe. Amoni rú ẹbọ sí gbogbo àwọn òrìṣà tí Manase baba rẹ̀ ti ṣe, ó sì sìn wọ́n.
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.
Ṣùgbọ́n kì í ṣe bí i baba rẹ̀ Manase. Kò rẹ ara rẹ̀ sílẹ̀ níwájú Olúwa: ṣùgbọ́n ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ Amoni sì ń pọ̀ sì í.
24 Then Amon’s officials made plans to kill him. They assassinated him in his palace.
Àwọn oníṣẹ́ Amoni dìtẹ̀ sí i. Wọ́n sì pa á ní ààfin rẹ̀.
25 But then the people of Judah killed all those who had assassinated Amon, and they appointed his son Josiah to be their king.
Nígbà náà, gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn ilẹ̀ náà pa gbogbo àwọn tí wọ́n ṣọ̀tẹ̀ sí ọba Amoni, wọ́n sì mú Josiah ọmọ rẹ̀ jẹ ọba ní ipò rẹ̀.
