< 2 Kings 14 >

1 After Jehoash had been ruling Israel for almost two years, Joash’s son Amaziah became the king of Judah.
Iti maikadua a tawen ni Jehoas a lalaki a putot ni Joacaz nga ari iti Israel, nangrugi a nagturay ni Joas nga anak ni Amazias nga ari iti Juda.
2 He was 25 years old when he started to rule, and he ruled in Jerusalem for 29 years. His mother was Jehoaddin; she was from Jerusalem.
Duapulo ket lima ti tawenna idi nangrugi a nagturay; nagturay isuna iti duapulo ket siyam a tawen idiay Jerusalem. Jehoaddin ti nagan ti inana a taga-Jerusalem.
3 Amaziah did many things that pleased Yahweh, but he did not do as many things that pleased Yahweh as King David had done. He did some of the good things that his father Joash had done.
Inaramidna ti rumbeng iti imatang ni Yahweh, ngem saan a kas kenni David nga amana. Inaramidna ti amin a banag nga inaramid ni Joas nga amana.
4 But, [like his father, ] he did not tear down the places for worshipping Yahweh at pagan shrines. The people continued to burn incense [to honor Yahweh] on those hills [instead of in Jerusalem, the place that Yahweh had appointed].
Ngem saan a naikkat dagiti disso a pagdaydayawan. Nangidaton ken nangpuor latta dagiti tattao iti insenso kadagiti disso a pagdaydayawan.
5 As soon as he was completely in control of his kingdom, he caused to be executed the officials who had murdered his father.
Napasamak nga apaman a napabileg ti panagturayna, pinatayna dagiti adipen a nangpapatay iti amana nga ari.
6 But he did not execute their children. He obeyed what was written in the laws that God gave to Moses: “Parents must not be executed for [the crimes/sins committed by] their children, and children must not be executed for [crimes/sins committed by] their parents. People must be executed only for the sins that they themselves [have committed].”
Ngem saanna a pinapatay dagiti annak dagiti mammapatay; ngem ketdi, inaramidna ti maiyannurot iti naisurat iti linteg, iti Libro ni Moises, a kas iti imbilin ni Yahweh, a kunana, “Saan a rumbeng a mapapatay dagiti amada gapu kadagiti annakda, kasta met a saan a rumbeng a mapapatay dagiti annak gapu kadagiti nagannakda. Ngem ketdi, mapapatay ti tunggal maysa a tao gapu iti bukodna a basol.”
7 Amaziah’s soldiers killed 10,000 soldiers of the Edom people-group in the Salt Valley [south of the Dead Sea], and they captured Sela [city] and gave it a new name, Joktheel. That is still its name.
Pinatayna ti sangapulo a ribu a soldado ti Edom idiay tanap ti Asin; tinagikuana met ti Sela iti gubat ket inawaganna daytoy iti Jokteel, nga isu iti awagna agpapan ita.
8 Then Amaziah sent messengers to King Jehoash of Israel, saying “Come here and let’s talk together.”
Kalpasanna, nangibaon ni Amazias kadagiti mensahero kenni Jehoas nga anak ni Joacaz nga anak ni Jehu nga ari ti Israel, a kinunana, “Umayka, agsangota iti gubat.”
9 But King Jehoash replied to King Amaziah: “Once a thornbush growing [in the mountains] in Lebanon sent a message to a cedar tree, saying, ‘Give your daughter to my son in order that he may marry her.’ But a wild animal in Lebanon passed by the thornbush and trampled it.
Ngem nangibaon ni Jehoas nga ari ti Israel kadagiti mensahero nga agsubli kenni Amazias nga ari ti Juda, a kunada, “Nangipatulod ti mensahe ti maysa a siit-siitan a mula nga adda iti Lebanon iti maysa a sedro idiay Lebanon, a kunana, ‘Ipaasawam ti putotmo a babai iti putotko a lalaki,' ngem adda limmabas nga atap nga ayup iti Lebanon ket binaddekanna ti siit-siitan a mula.
10 [The meaning of what I am saying is that] your army has defeated the army of Edom, so now you have become very proud. But you should be content with defeating the people of Edom, and allow your soldiers to stay at home. If you cause trouble [by fighting against] us, you will surely [RHQ] cause a disaster to happen to you and to your people.”
Pudno a ginubatmo ti Edom ken nagpannakel ti pusom. Ipannakkelmo ti balligim, ngem agtalinaedka dita balaymo, ta apay pay laeng nga isagmakmo ti bagim nga isu ti pakatnagam, sika ken ti Juda?”
11 But Amaziah refused to heed Jehoash’s message. So he marched with his army to fight against the Israeli army at Beth-Shemesh [city] in Judah.
Ngem saan a dumngeg ni Amazias. Isu a rimmaut ni Jehoas nga ari ti Israel; nagsangoda kenni Amazias nga ari ti Juda idiay Betsemes, a sakup ti Juda.
12 The Israeli army defeated the army of Judah, and all the soldiers of Judah fled and ran back home.
Naparmek ti Israel ti Juda ket naglibas a nagawid ti tunggal maysa.
13 Jehoash’s army also captured King Amaziah there, and they also marched to Jerusalem and tore down the wall that was around the city, from the Ephraim Gate to the Corner Gate. That was a section that was about (200 yards/180 meters) long.
Tiniliw ni Jehoas nga ari ti Israel ni Amazias nga ari iti Juda a putot ni Jehoas nga anak ni Ahazias idiay Betsemes. Immay isuna idiay Jerusalem ket renebbana ti pader ti Jerusalem manipud iti Ruangan ti Efraim agingga iti Ruangan ti Suli, uppat a gasut a cubits ti baetna.
14 Jehoash’s soldiers seized all the gold and silver that they found, and all the utensils that were in the temple, and all the valuable things that were in the palace, and took them to Samaria. They also took to Samaria some prisoners whom they had captured.
Innalana amin dagiti balitok ken pirak, amin dagiti alikamen a nasarakanda iti balay ni Yahweh, ken dagiti napapateg a banbanag iti palasio ti ari, karaman met dagiti balud, ket nagsubli isuna idiay Samaria.
15 [If you want to know about] all the other things that Jehoash did when he was king, including when he [and his army] fought against [the army of] King Amaziah of Judah, they are written in the scroll called ‘The History of the Kings of Israel’.
No maipanggep met kadagiti dadduma a banbanag maipapan kenni Jehoas, amin nga inaramidna, ti kinamaingelna, ken no kasano a nakiranget isuna kenni Amazias nga ari ti Juda, saan kadi a naisurat dagitoy iti Libro dagiti Pakasaritaan dagiti Ari iti Israel?
16 Jehoash died [EUP], and he was buried in Samaria, where the other kings of Israel had been buried. Then his son Jeroboam became the king.
Kalpasanna, pimmusay ni Jehoas ket naitanem idiay Samaria iti nakaitaneman dagiti ari ti Israel, ket ni Jeroboam a putotna ti simmukat kenkuana nga ari.
17 Amaziah, the king of Judah, lived for 15 more years after Jehoash, the king of Israel, died.
Nagbiag pay ni Amazias nga anak ni Jehoas nga ari ti Juda iti sangapulo ket lima a tawen kalpasan ti ipapatay ni Jehoas a putot ni Joacaz nga ari ti Israel.
18 [If you want to know more about] everything else that Amaziah did, it is written [RHQ] in the scroll called ‘The History of the Kings of Judah’.
No maipanggep kadagiti dadduma a banbanag maipapan kenni Amazias, saan kadi a naisurat dagitoy iti Libro dagiti Pakasaritaan dagiti Ari ti Juda?
19 Some people in Jerusalem plotted against Amaziah, so he fled to Lachish [city]. But they followed him there and killed him.
Nagpanggepda iti dakes a maibusor kenni Amazias idiay Jerusalem, ket timmaray isuna idiay Lakis. Timmaray isuna idiay Lakis ngem nangibaonda kadagiti lallaki a mangsurot kenkuana idiay Lakis ket pinatayda isuna sadiay.
20 They took his corpse back to Jerusalem and buried it where his ancestors had been buried, in [the part of Jerusalem called] ‘The City of David’.
Insublida isuna babaen iti panagisakayda kenkuana kadagiti kabalio, ket intabonda isuna iti nakaitaneman dagiti kapuonanna iti siudad ni David.
21 Then all the people of Judah appointed Amaziah’s son Uzziah, when he was 16 years old, to be their king
Innala dagiti amin a tattao ti Juda ni Uzzias nga agtawen iti sangapulo ket innem ket pinagbalinda nga ari kas kasukat ti amana a ni Amazias.
22 After his father died, Uzziah’s workers captured Elath [city], and it came under the control of Judah again.
Ni Uzzias ti nangibangon manen iti Elat ket insublina daytoy iti Juda, kalpasan a pimmusay ni Amazias
23 When Amaziah had been ruling Judah for almost 15 years, Jeroboam became the king of Israel. He ruled in Samaria [city] for 41 years.
Iti maikasangapulo ket lima a tawen ni Amazias a putot ni Joas, nga ari ti Juda, nangrugi a nagturay ni Jeroboam a putot ni Jehoas nga ari idiay Samaria; nagturay isuna iti uppat a pulo ket maysa a tawen.
24 He did many things that Yahweh considered to be evil. He did not stop committing the same kind of sins that Jeroboam, the son of Nebat, committed, sins which led the Israeli people to sin also.
Inaramidna ti dakes iti imatang ni Yahweh. Saanna nga inadaywan dagiti basol ni Jeroboam a putot ni Nebat, a nangisungsung kadagiti Israel nga agbasol.
25 His soldiers conquered again some of the territory that had previously belonged to Israel, from Hamath [city] in the north to the Dead Sea in the south. That is what Yahweh, the God whom the Israelis worshiped, promised the prophet Jonah, the son of Amittai, from Gath-Hepher [town], would happen.
Insublina ti ketegan ti Israel manipud iti Lebo Hamat agingga iti baybay ti Araba, kas panangtungpalna kadagiti bilbilin ni Yahweh a Dios ti Israel, nga insao ni Yahweh babaen iti adipenna a ni Jonas a putot ni Amittai, a profeta a taga-Gat Hefer.
26 That happened because Yahweh saw that [the Israelis’ enemies were causing] the Israelis [to] suffer very much. And there was absolutely no one [IDM] who would help them.
Ta nakita ni Yahweh ti panagsagsagaba ti Israel, a napalalo ti rigat ti tunggal maysa kadakuada, tagabu wenno siwawaya, ken nakitana nga awan iti mangtulong iti Israel.
27 But Yahweh said that he would not destroy Israel completely, so he enabled King Jeroboam to rescue them.
Imbaga ngarud ni Yahweh a saanna a pukawen ti nagan ti Israel iti sirok ti langit; ngem ketdi, inispalna ida babaen kenni Jeroboam a putot ni Jehoas.
28 [If you want to know more about] everything else that Jeroboam did, [about] his fighting courageously in battles, and [about] his [enabling the Israelis to] capture again Damascus and Hamath [cities], they are written [RHQ] in the scroll called ‘The History of the Kings of Israel’.
No maipanggep kadagiti dadduma pay a banbanag maipapan kenni Jeroboam, amin nga inaramidna, ti kinabilegna, no kasano a nakiranget isuna ken sinublina para iti Israel ti Damasco ken Hamat, a sigud a kukua ti Juda, saan kadi a naisurat dagitoy iti Libro dagiti Pakasaritaan dagiti Ari ti Israel?
29 Jeroboam died [EUP], [and was buried] where the other kings of Israel [were buried], and his son Zechariah became the king.
Pimmusay ni Jeroboam ket naitabon iti pakaitantaneman dagiti ari ti Israel, ket ni Zacarias a putotna ti simmukat kenkuana nga ari.
