2 Kings 13
1 After Joash had been ruling Judah for almost 23 years, Jehu’s son Jehoahaz became the king of Israel. He ruled in Samaria [city] for 17 years.
Amy taom-paha-roapolo-telo’ ambi’ Iehoase ana’ i Ahkazià, mpanjaka’ Iehoday, ty namotora’ Iehoakaze ana’ Ieho nifeleke Israele e Somerone ao vaho nifeleke folo-taoñe fito’amby,
2 He did many things that Yahweh considered to be evil and committed the same kind of sins that Jeroboam had committed, sins which led the people of Israel to sin. He did not stop committing those sins.
nanao haratiañe am-pivazohoa’ Iehovà, nañorike o hakeo’ Iarovame ana’ i Nebate nampanaña’e tahiñe Israeleo—tsy niviha’e.
3 So Yahweh became very angry with the Israeli people, and he allowed the army of King Hazael of Syria and his son Ben-Hadad to defeat the Israelis many times.
Le nisolebotse am’ Israele ty haviñera’ Iehovà, tolin-dra nainai’e nasese’e am-pità’ i Kazaele mpanjaka’ i Arame naho am-pità’ i Benehadade ana’ i Kazaele.
4 Then Jehoahaz prayed to Yahweh [for help], and Yahweh heeded him, because he saw that the army of the king of Syria was oppressing the Israelis.
Aa le nitoreo am’ Iehovà t’Iehoakaze vaho hinao’ Iehovà; amy te nivazohoe’e ty famorekekeañe Israele naho ty fanindria’ i mpanjaka’ i Aramey—
5 Yahweh sent a leader to Israel, who enabled them to be freed from being controlled by Syria. After that, the Israeli people lived peacefully as they had done previously.
Le nitolora’ Iehovà mpandrombake, naho nivotsotse ambanem-pità’ o nte-Arameo; vaho nimoneñe an-kibohotse indraike o ana’ Israeleo, manahake te taolo.
6 But they still continued to commit the same kind of sins that Jeroboam and his family had committed and which led the Israelis to [also] sin. And the statue of the goddess Asherah remained in Samaria.
Fe tsy napo’ iareo o tahin’ anjomba’ Iarovameo, o nampanañan-kakeo Israeleo, te mone nañaveloa’ iareo, ie nitambatse e Somerone ao i hazomangay.
7 Jehoahaz had only 50 men who rode on horses and ten chariots and 10,000 other soldiers, because the army of Syria had killed all the rest, trampling them like people walk on dirt.
Tsy nenga’e ondaty ka t’Iehoakaze naho tsy mpiningi-tsoavala limampolo naho sarete folo vaho lahindefo rai-ale, amy te zinama’ i mpanjaka’ i Aramey iereo le nanoe’e hoe debok’ am-pamofohañe eo.
8 [If you want to read about] [RHQ] everything else that Jehoahaz did, you can read about it in the scroll called ‘The History of the Kings of Israel’.
Aa ty ila’ o fitoloña’ Iehoakazeo, o fifanehafa’e iabio naho o haozara’eo, tsy fa sinokitse amy bokem-pamoliliañe o mpanjaka’ Israeleoy hao?
9 Jehoahaz died [EUP] and was buried in Samaria. Then his son Jehoash became the king.
Nirotse aman-droae’e t’Iehoakaze, le nalenteke e Somerone ao, vaho nandimbe aze am-pifeheañe t’Iehoase ana’e.
10 Jehoash, the son of Jehoahaz, started to rule in Israel after King Joash had been ruling in Judah for 23 years. Jehoash ruled in Samaria for 17 years.
Amy taom-paha-telopolo-fito’ ambi’ Ioase mpanjaka’ Iehoday ty niorota’ Iehoase ana’ Iehoakaze nifehe e Israele e Somerone ao, le nifeleha’e folo-tao-eneñ’ amby.
11 He did many things that Yahweh considered to be evil. He refused to turn away from worshiping idols, which was the sin that [many years earlier King] Jeroboam had told the Israeli people to commit.
Nanao raty am-pivazohoa’ Iehovà re, le tsy nenga’e ze fonga hakeo’ Iarovame ana’ i Nebate nampanaña’e tahiñe Israele, te mone nañaveloa’e.
12 The other things that happened while Jehoash was king and all the things that he did are written in the book called ‘The Account of What the Kings of Israel Did’. In that account they wrote about Jehoash’s [army’s] victories, and their war with [the army of] King Amaziah of Judah.
Ie amy zao ty ila’ o fitoloña’ Iehoaseo naho o fifanehafa’e iabio, naho o haozarañe nialia’e amy Amazià mpanjaka’ Iehodao, tsy fa sinokitse amy bokem-pamoliliañe o mpanjaka’ Israeleoy hao?
13 When Jehoash died, he was buried in Samaria where the [other] kings of Israel were buried. Then his son Jeroboam became king.
Nirotse aman-droae’e ao t’Iehoase; le niambesatse am-piambesa’e t’Iarovame vaho nalenteke e Somerone ao t’Iehoase mindre amo mpanjaka’ Israeleo.
14 Elisha became very ill. Just before he died, King Jehoash went to Elisha and cried in front of him. [Saying the same words that Elisha had said when Elijah was taken to heaven], he said, “My father/master! My father/master! The chariots of us Israeli people and their drivers [are taking my master away]!”
Ie amy zao natindri’ ty hasilofañe hampivetrak’aze t’i Elisà; le nizotso mb’ ama’e mb’eo t’Iehoase mpanjaka’ Israele, nirovetse aze ami’ty hoe: Ry raeko, ry raeko, o sarete’ Israele naho o mpiningi’eo!
15 Elisha said to him, “Bring to me a bow and some arrows!” So the king did that.
le hoe ty Elisà ama’e, Andrambeso fale naho ana-pale; vaho nandesa’e fale aman’ ana-pale.
16 Then Elisha told the king to put his hands on the bow [and prepare to shoot some arrows]. And then Elisha put his own hands on the king’s hands.
Le hoe re amy mpanjaka’ Israeley, Asampezo amo faleo ty fità’o, le nasampe’e ama’e eo i fità’ey. Le nasampe’ i Elisà am-pità’ i mpanjakay ty fità’e.
17 Then Elisha told him, “[Have someone] open that window toward the east.” So they opened it. Then Elisha said, “Shoot!” So the king did. Then Elisha said, “That is the arrow that [indicates that your army] will defeat the Syrian army. Your army will completely defeat their [army] at Aphek [town].”
Le hoe re, Sokafo i lalan-kede atiñanañey; le sinoka’e. Le hoe t’i Elisà. Ahiririño, le nahiriri’e. Le hoe re: Ty ana-palem-pamotsora’ Iehovà, ty ana-palem-pandreketañe i Arame; fa hanjevo o nte-Arameo e Afekeo irehe ampara’ te fongore’o.
18 Then Elisha said, “Pick up the other arrows and strike the ground with them!” So the king picked up the arrows and struck the ground three times.
Aa le hoe re: Rambeso o ana-paleo; le rinambe’e. Le hoe re amy mpanjaka’ Israeley: Fofoho o taneo; le finofo’e in-telo vaho nijihetse.
19 But Elisha was angry with him. He exclaimed, “You should have struck the ground five or six times! If you had done that, your army would have defeated the Syrian [army] until they were completely wiped out! But now, [because you struck the ground only three times, ] your army will defeat them only three times!”
Niviñera’ indatin’ Añaharey naho nanoa’e ty hoe: Akore te tsy finofo’o in-eneñe ndra in-dime; soa te ho linafa’o ampara te nimongotse t’i Arame; ie henaneo ho lafae’o intelo avao t’i Arame.
20 Then Elisha died and was buried. Groups of raiders from Moab came to Israel each year during (spring/the time when the cold season was ending).
Nihomake t’i Elisà, le nalenteke. Ie henane zay, mpaname i taney boa-taoñe o firimboña’ i Moabeo.
21 One year, when some Israeli people were burying a man’s body, they saw a group of those raiders. [They were afraid, ] so quickly they threw that man’s body into the tomb where Elisha [had been buried, and they ran away]. But as soon as the man’s body touched Elisha’s bones, the dead man became alive again and jumped up!
Teo t’ie nandeveñe ondaty, le nitalakeseñe ty mpifañoso-malaso; naho nafetsa’ iereo an-dona’ i Elisà ao i loloy; ie vaho nioza amo taola’ i Elisào i loloy le nisotrake vaho nijohañe am-pandia.
22 King Hazael of Syria [sent soldiers to] oppress the Israeli people all during the years that Jehoahaz [ruled Judah].
Finorekeke’ i Kazaele amy ze hene andro’ Iehoakaze t’Israele.
23 But Yahweh was very kind [DOU] to the Israeli people. He helped them because of the agreement that he had made with [their ancestors] Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. He did not get rid of the Israelis, and he still has not rejected them.
Fe niferenaiña’ Iehovà naho nitretreze’e naho nihaoñe’e ty amy fañina’e amy Avrahame naho Ietsake vaho Iakobey le tsy ninò’e ty hamongotse ndra ty hañifike iareo boak’ am-piatrefa’e heike.
24 When Hazael the king of Syria died, his son Ben-Hadad became the king.
Nihomak’ amy zao t’i Kazaele mpanjaka’ i Arame; le nandimbe aze nifehe t’i Benehadade ana’e.
25 [The army of] King Jehoash of Israel defeated [the army of] King Ben-Hadad three times, and recaptured the cities that Ben-Hadad’s army had captured during the time that Jehoash’s father Jehoahaz was ruling Israel.
Rinambe’ Iehoase ana’ Iehoakaze indraike boak’ am-pità’ i Benehadade ana’ i Kazaele o rova tinava’e an’ aly am-pità’ Iehoakaze rae’eo. In-telo ty nandafa’ Ioase aze vaho rinambe’e indraike o rova’ Israeleo.
