2 Kings 15
1 After Jeroboam had been ruling Israel for almost twenty-seven years, Uzziah, the son of King Amaziah of Judah, began to rule.
In yac aklongoul itkosr ke pacl Jeroboam Akluo el tokosra lun Israel, Uzziah wen natul Amaziah el tokosrala lun Judah
2 He was 16 years old when he started to rule, and he ruled in Jerusalem for 52 years. His mother was Jecoliah, from Jerusalem.
ke el yac singoul onkosr, ac el leum in Jerusalem ke yac lumngaul luo. Nina kial pa Jecoliah, sie mutan Jerusalem.
3 He did things that Yahweh was pleased with, like his father Amaziah had done.
Uzziah el oru ma su akinsewowoye LEUM GOD, mweyen el fahsr tukun srikasrak lun papa tumal.
4 But, the places at the pagan shrines where they worshiped Yahweh were not destroyed, and the people continued to burn incense [to honor Yahweh] at those places [instead of in Jerusalem, the place that Yahweh had appointed].
Tusruktu nien alu lun mwet pegan tiana kunausyukla, ac mwet uh srakna orek kisa ac akosak mwe keng we.
5 Yahweh caused Uzziah to become a leper, and he was a leper for the rest of his life. [He was not allowed to live in the palace]. He lived alone in a house, and his son Jotham ruled the country.
Ac LEUM GOD El sang musen lepa nu sel, su oan in el nwe ke na el misa. El srengla muta in siena lohm, ac itukla orekma kunal nukewa, na Jotham wen natul, el liyaung facl sac.
6 [If you want to know about] everything else that Uzziah did, it is written [RHQ] in the scroll called ‘The History of the Kings of Judah’.
Ma nukewa saya ma Uzziah el oru, simla oasr in [Sramsram Matu Ke Tokosra Lun Judah].
7 Uzziah died [EUP], and they buried him in [the part of Jerusalem called] ‘The City of David’, where his ancestors had been buried. Then his son Jotham officially became the king.
Uzziah el misa ac pukpuki inkulyuk lun tokosra in Siti sel David, ac Jotham wen natul, el aolul in tokosra.
8 After Uzziah had been ruling Judah for almost thirty-eight years, Zechariah, the son of Jeroboam, became the king of Israel. He ruled in Samaria [city] for [only] six months.
In yac aktolngoul oalkosr ke pacl Tokosra Uzziah el leum in Judah, Zechariah wen natul Jeroboam Akluo, el tokosrala lun Israel, ac el leum in Samaria ke malem onkosr.
9 He did many things that Yahweh considered to be evil, like his ancestors had done. He committed the same kind of sins that Jeroboam had committed, sins which led the Israeli people to sin.
El oana mwet meet lukel in oru ma koluk lain LEUM GOD. El fahsr tukun srikasrak koluk lal Jeroboam wen natul Nebat, su kolla mwet Israel nu ke ma koluk.
10 Then Shallum, the son of Jabesh, made plans to assassinate Zechariah. He killed him at Ibleam [town], and then he became the king.
Shallum wen natul Jabesh, el orek pwapa lukma in lainul Tokosra Zechariah, ac unilya in acn Ibleam, na el aolulla in tokosra.
11 Everything else that Zechariah did is written in the scroll called ‘The History of the Kings of Israel’.
Ma nukewa saya ma Zechariah el oru, simla oasr in [Sramsram Matu Ke Tokosra Lun Israel].
12 When Zechariah died, [that ended the dynasty of King Jehu]. That fulfilled what Yahweh said to King Jehu would happen: “Your son and grandson and great-grandson and great-great-grandson will all be kings of Israel.”
Ouinge akpwayeyuk wulela se ma LEUM GOD El tuh orala nu sel Tokosra Jehu, su fahk, “Tulik nutum ac fah tokosra lun Israel nwe ke fwil se akakosr.”
13 Shallum, the son of Jabesh, became the king of Israel after King Uzziah had been ruling Judah for almost thirty-nine years. But Shallum ruled in Samaria for [only] one month.
In yac aktolngoul eu ke pacl Tokosra Uzziah el leum in Judah, Shallum wen natul Jabesh, el tokosrala lun Israel, ac el leum in Samaria ke malem se.
14 Then Menahem, the son of Gadi, went up from Tirzah [city] to Samaria and assassinated Shallum. Then Menahem became the king of Israel.
Menahem wen natul Gadi, el som Tirzah lac nu Samaria. El unilya Shallum, ac aolulla in tokosra.
15 Everything else that Shallum did, including his killing King Zechariah, is written in the scroll called ‘The History of the Kings of Israel’.
Ma nukewa saya ma Shallum el orala, weang sramsram ke pwapa lukma lal, simla oasr in [Sramsram Matu Ke Tokosra Lun Israel].
16 While Menahem was ruling in Samaria, he completely destroyed Tappuah [village south of Samaria] and killed all the people who lived there and in the surrounding territory. He did that because the people in that city refused to surrender to him. [With his sword] he even ripped open the bellies of pregnant women.
Ke Menahem el som liki acn Tirzah, el arulana kunausla siti Tappuah ac mwet we, oayapa acn ma raunela acn we, mweyen mwet Tappuah tiana lungse srasrapo nu sel. El oayapa tiyala insien mutan pitutu nukewa.
17 When King Azariah had been ruling Judah for almost thirty-nine years, Menahem, the son of Gadi, became the king of Israel. He ruled in Samaria for ten years.
In yac aktolngoul eu ke pacl Tokosra Uzziah el leum lun Judah, Menahem wen natul Gadi, el tokosrala lun Israel, ac el leum in Samaria ke yac singoul.
18 He did many things that Yahweh considered to be evil. He committed the same kinds of sins that King Jeroboam had committed, sins that led the people of Israel to sin. He continued to commit those sins for the rest of his life.
El oru ma koluk lain LEUM GOD nwe ke na len se el misa, mweyen el tuh fahsrna tukun srikasrak koluk lal Tokosra Jeroboam wen natul Nebat, su kolla mwet Israel nu ke ma koluk.
19 Then King Tiglath-Pileser of Assyria came [with his army] to attack Israel. So Menahem gave him (thirty-eight tons/35,000 kg.) of silver in order that Tiglath-Pileser would help Menahem to continue to be king and rule his country more strongly.
Tiglath Pileser, Tokosra Fulat lun Assyria, el utyak in mweuni acn Israel, ac Menahem el sang paun in silver itngoul onkosr tausin nu sel in suk kasru lal in akyokyelik ku lal Menahem fin facl sac.
20 Menahem obtained that money from the rich men in Israel. He compelled each of them to contribute 50 pieces of silver. So Tiglath-Pileser [took that money and] went back home.
Menahem el konauk mani inge ke sripen el sap ku nu sin mwet kasrup lun Israel tuh kais sie selos in srukak ipin silver lumngaul. Ouinge Tiglath Pileser el folokla nu in facl sel sifacna.
21 [If you want to know more about] everything that Menahem did, it is written [RHQ] in the scroll called ‘The History of the Kings of Israel’.
Ma nukewa saya ma Menahem el orala, simla oasr in [Sramsram Matu Ke Tokosra Lun Israel].
22 Menahem died [EUP] and was buried, and his son Pekahiah became the king of Israel.
El misa ac pukpuki, ac Pekahiah wen natul, el aolul in tokosra.
23 When King Uzziah had been ruling Judah for almost 50 years, Menahem’s son Pekahiah became the king of Israel. He ruled in Samaria for [only] two years.
In yac aklumngaul ke pacl Tokosra Uzziah el leum lun Judah, Pekahiah wen natul Menahem, el tokosrala lun Israel, ac el leum in Samaria ke yac luo.
24 He did many things that Yahweh considered to be evil. He committed the same kind of sins that King Jeroboam had committed, sins which led the people of Israel to sin.
El oru ma koluk lain LEUM GOD ke el fahsr tukun ma koluk lal Tokosra Jeroboam wen natul Nebat, su kolla mwet Israel in oru ma koluk.
25 Then one of Pekahiah’s army commanders whose name was Pekah, the son of Remaliah, planned with 50 men from [the] Gilead [region] to kill Pekahiah. They assassinated him in a fortified place in the king’s palace in Samaria. Then Pekah became the king.
Pekah, wen natul Remaliah, sie sin mwet kol ke un mwet mweun lal Pekahiah, el orek pwapa lukma nu sin mwet Gilead lumngaul, ac unilya Pekahiah, oayapa Argob ac Arieh, ke kalkal se oan oe luin inkul sin tokosra in acn Samaria. Na Pekah el aolulla Pekahiah in tokosra.
26 Everything else that Pekahiah did is written in the scroll called ‘The History of the Kings of Israel’.
Ma nukewa saya ma Pekahiah el orala, simla oasr in [Sramsram Matu Ke Tokosra Lun Israel].
27 When King Uzziah had been ruling Judah for almost 52 years, Pekah, the son of Remaliah, became the king of Israel. He ruled in Samaria for 20 years.
In yac aklumngaul luo ke pacl Tokosra Uzziah el leum in acn Judah, Pekah wen natul Remaliah, el tokosrala lun Israel, ac el leum in Samaria ke yac longoul.
28 He also did many things that Yahweh considered to be evil. He committed the same kind of sins that King Jeroboam had committed, sins that led the people of Israel to sin.
El oru ma koluk lain LEUM GOD ke el fahsr tukun srikasrak koluk lal Tokosra Jeroboam wen natul Nebat, su kolla mwet Israel in oru ma koluk.
29 While Pekah was the king, Tiglath-Pileser, the king of Assyria, came [with his army] and captured [the cities of] Ijon, Abel-Beth-Maacah, Janoah, Kedesh, Hazor, and the regions of Gilead, Galilee, and Naphtali. His army forced the Israeli people to leave their country and go to live in Assyria.
In pacl se ma Pekah el tokosra inge, pa Tiglath Pileser, su Tokosra Fulat lun Assyria, el sruokya siti Ijon, Abel Beth Maacah, Janoah, Kedesh, ac Hazor, oayapa acn lun Gilead, Galilee, ac Naphtali. Na el usla mwet in acn inge nu ke sruoh in acn Assyria.
30 Then Hoshea, the son of Elah, plotted to kill Pekah. He assassinated him when Uzziah’s son Jotham had been ruling Judah for almost 20 years. Then Hoshea became the king of Israel.
In yac aklongoul ma Jotham wen natul Uzziah, el tokosra lun Judah, Hosea wen natul Elah, el orek pwapa lukma lainul Tokosra Pekah, ac unilya, na el aolulla in tokosra.
31 Everything else that Pekah did is written in the scroll called ‘The History of the Kings of Israel’.
Ma nukewa saya ma Pekah el orala, simla oasr in [Sramsram Matu Ke Tokosra Lun Israel].
32 When Pekah had been ruling Israel for almost two years, Uzziah’s son Jotham began to rule Judah.
In yac akluo ma Pekah wen natul Remaliah, el tokosra lun Israel, Jotham wen natul Uzziah, el tokosrala lun Judah
33 He was 25 years old when he started to rule, and he ruled from Jerusalem for 16 years. His mother was Jerusha, the daughter of Zadok.
ke el yac longoul limekosr, ac el leum in Jerusalem ke yac singoul onkosr. Nina kial pa Jerusha, acn natul Zadok.
34 He did many things that pleased Yahweh, like his father Uzziah had done.
Jotham el fahsr tukun srikasrak lal Uzziah papa tumal, ac el oru ma LEUM GOD El insewowo kac.
35 But he did not destroy the places on the tops of hills where the people worshiped [Yahweh], and the people continued to burn incense there [to honor Yahweh]. Jotham’s workers built the Upper Gate of the temple.
Tusruktu el tiana kunausla nien alu lun mwet pegan, ac mwet uh srakna orekmakin acn inge nu ke orek kisa ac akosak mwe keng we. Jotham pa tuh musaela Mutunpot Epang ke Tempul.
36 [If you want to know more about] everything else that Jotham did, it is written [RHQ] in the scroll called ‘The History of the Kings of Judah’.
Ma nukewa saya ma Jotham el orala, simla oasr in [Sramsram Matu Ke Tokosra Lun Judah].
37 It was during the time that Jotham was the king that Yahweh sent King Rezin of Syria and King Pekah of Israel [with their armies] to attack Judah.
In pacl se ma el tokosra inge pa LEUM GOD El supwalla Tokosra Rezin lun Syria ac Tokosra Pekah lun Israel in som mweuni acn Judah.
38 Jotham died [EUP] and was buried where his ancestors had been buried in [the part of Jerusalem called] ‘The City of David’. Then his son Ahaz became the king of Judah.
Jotham el misa ac pukpuki inkulyuk lun tokosra in Siti sel David, ac Ahaz wen natul, el aolul in tokosra.
