2 Chronicles 26
1 Then all the people of Judah took Uzziah, who was sixteen years old, and made him king instead of his father Amaziah.
Mgbe ahụ, ndị Juda mere Ụzaya eze nʼọnọdụ Amazaya nna ya, mgbe ọ dị naanị afọ iri na isii.
2 He built Eloth, and restored it to Judah, after the king slept with his fathers.
Ọ bụ Ụzaya wugharịrị obodo Elat, nwetaghachi ya nye Juda mgbe eze bụ Amazaya sooro ndị nna nna ya dinaa nʼọnwụ.
3 Sixteen years old was Uzziah when he began to reign, and he reigned fifty and two years in Jerusalem. His mother’s name also was Jecoliah of Jerusalem.
Ụzaya dị afọ iri na isii mgbe ọ malitere ịchị dịka eze. Ọ chịrị iri afọ ise na abụọ na Jerusalem.
4 And he did that which was right in the sight of the LORD, according to all that his father Amaziah did.
O soro nzọ ụkwụ nna ya bụ Amazaya mee ihe ziri ezi nʼanya Onyenwe anyị.
5 And he sought God in the days of Zechariah, who had understanding in the visions of God: and as long as he sought the LORD, God made him to prosper.
Ụzaya chọsịrị Chineke ike ụbọchị niile nke Zekaraya na-adị ndụ, bụ onye mere ka ọ ghọta ịtụ egwu Chineke. Mgbe niile, dịka ọ na-achọ Onyenwe anyị, Chineke nyere ya ọganihu.
6 And he went forth and warred against the Philistines, and broke down the wall of Gath, and the wall of Jabneh, and the wall of Ashdod, and built cities about Ashdod, and among the Philistines.
O busoro ndị Filistia agha, ma kụdakwa mgbidi niile nke Gat, Jabna, na Ashdọd. Emesịa, o wuziri ọtụtụ obodo dị nʼakụkụ Ashdọd na nʼebe ndị ọzọ nʼobodo Filistia.
7 And God helped him against the Philistines, and against the Arabians that dwelt in Gurbaal, and the Mehunims.
Chineke nọnyeere ya nʼọgụ niile ọ lụsoro ndị Filistia, na ndị Arab bi na Gua Baal na ndị Meunim.
8 And the Ammonites gave gifts to Uzziah: and his name spread abroad even to the entrance of Egypt; for he strengthened himself exceedingly.
Ndị Amọn na-atụtara ya ụtụ afọ niile, ude aha ya ruru ọ bụladị ala Ijipt nʼihi na ọ ghọrọ onye dị ike nke ukwuu.
9 Moreover Uzziah built towers in Jerusalem at the corner gate, and at the valley gate, and at the turning of the wall, and fortified them.
O wuru ọtụtụ ụlọ elu nche na Jerusalem na nkuku Ọnụ Ụzọ Ama, nʼỌnụ Ụzọ Ama Ndagwurugwu, na nkuku mgbidi, wusie ha ike.
10 Also he built towers in the desert, and dug many wells: for he had many cattle, both in the low country, and in the plains: farmers also, and vinedressers in the mountains, and in Carmel: for he loved the soil.
O wukwara ọtụtụ ụlọ elu nche siri ike nʼọzara, gwuokwa ọtụtụ olulu mmiri nʼihi na o nwere ọtụtụ anụ ụlọ na ndagwurugwu, na nʼala dị larịị. Ọ hụrụ ịrụ ọrụ ubi nʼanya, nʼihi ya, o nwere ọtụtụ ndị na-arụ ọrụ nʼubi na ubi vaịnị ya dị nʼala ugwu ugwu, na nʼala ndị dị na ndagwurugwu.
11 Moreover Uzziah had an army of fighting men, that went out to war by bands, according to the number of their reckoning by the hand of Jeiel the scribe and Maaseiah the ruler, under the hand of Hananiah, one of the king’s captains.
Ụzaya nwere ndị agha ọnụọgụgụ ha dị ukwuu, ndị a zụziri azụzi, na ndị nọ na njikere mgbe niile ịpụ ibu agha dịka ọnụọgụgụ e kewapụtara ha si dị. Ọ bụ Jeiel, ode akwụkwọ na Maaseia, onyeisi ozi nọ nʼokpuru Hananaya, otu nʼime ndịisi ozi eze, ka ọ dị nʼaka ịgụpụta ndị agha ga-apụ ibu agha.
12 The whole number of the heads of the father’s houses of the mighty men of valour were two thousand and six hundred.
Ndị agha a nwekwara puku ndịisi agha abụọ na narị isii, ya bụ 2,600.
13 And under their hand was an army, three hundred thousand and seven thousand and five hundred, that made war with mighty power, to help the king against the enemy.
Ọnụọgụgụ ndị agha ahụ niile dị narị puku atọ na asaa, na narị ise, ya bụ, 307,500. Ha bụ ndị a zụziri nke ọma, ndị dị nnọọ ike iguzo nʼazụ eze ibu agha megide ndị iro ya.
14 And Uzziah prepared for them throughout all the army shields, and spears, and helmets, and coats of mail, and bows, and slings to cast stones.
Ụzaya nyere ndị agha niile, ọta, na ùbe, na uwe agha, na okpu igwe, na uwe agha igwe, ụta na nkume na-akwọ mụrụmụrụ, nke ndị na-atụ iche ji alụ ọgụ.
15 And he made in Jerusalem engines, invented by skilful men, to be on the towers and upon the bulwarks, to shoot arrows and great stones. And his name spread far abroad; for he was marvellously helped, till he was strong.
O mepụtakwara ihe nchepụta ọhụrụ na Jerusalem, nke ndị nwere amamihe chepụtara, bụ nke a ga-eguzobe nʼụlọ elu nche nakwa nʼelu nkuku mgbidi, ka ndị agha nwee ike jiri ha gbaa àkụ maọbụ tụọ nkume ukwu site nʼelu mgbidi ahụ niile. Ude aha ya gbasara ruo ebe dị anya, nʼihi na-enyeere ya aka nʼụzọ dị ukwuu ruo mgbe ọ ghọrọ onye dị ike.
16 But when he was strong, his heart was lifted up to his destruction: for he transgressed against the LORD his God, and went into the temple of the LORD to burn incense upon the altar of incense.
Ma mgbe Ụzaya ghọrọ onye dị ike, nganga wetaara ya ọdịda. Ọ bụ onye na-ekwesighị ntụkwasị obi nye Onyenwe anyị bụ Chineke ya, ọ banyere nʼime ụlọnsọ Onyenwe anyị ka ọ chụọ aja ihe nsure ọkụ na-esi isi ụtọ nʼelu ebe ịchụ aja.
17 And Azariah the priest went in after him, and with him eighty priests of the LORD, that were valiant men:
Azaraya onye nchụaja na ndị nchụaja Onyenwe anyị iri asatọ ọzọ bụ dimkpa jekwuru ya nʼebe ahụ.
18 And they withstood Uzziah the king, and said to him, It appertaineth not to thee, Uzziah, to burn incense to the LORD, but to the priests the sons of Aaron, that are consecrated to burn incense: go out of the sanctuary; for thou hast trespassed; neither shall it be for thy honour from the LORD God.
Ha guzogidere eze bụ Ụzaya, sị ya, “Ụzaya, i kwesighị ịbata nʼebe a jiri aka gị suree ihe nsure ọkụ na-esi isi ụtọ nye Onyenwe anyị. Nke a bụ ọrụ dịrị naanị ndị nchụaja ndị bụ ụmụ Erọn, ndị a họpụtara doo iche maka ọrụ a. Site nʼebe nsọ a pụọ, nʼihi na i gosila onwe gị dịka onye na-ekwesighị ntụkwasị obi. Ọzọ ị gaghị enwekwa nsọpụrụ site nʼaka Onyenwe anyị Chineke gị.”
19 Then Uzziah was angry, and had a censer in his hand to burn incense: and while he was angry with the priests, the leprosy even rose up in his forehead before the priests in the house of the LORD, from beside the incense altar.
Ụzaya onye ji ihe ịgụ ọkụ nke e ji esure ihe nsure ọkụ na-esi isi ụtọ ahụ nʼaka, were iwe nke ukwu megide ndị nchụaja ahụ. Mgbe ọ nọ na-abara ndị nchụaja mba nʼihu ebe ịchụ aja nke dị nʼụlọnsọ ukwu Onyenwe anyị, lee ekpenta pụtara ya nʼegedege ihu.
20 And Azariah the chief priest, and all the priests, looked upon him, and, behold, he was leprous in his forehead, and they thrust him out from there; yea, himself hastened also to go out, because the LORD had smitten him.
Mgbe Azaraya onyeisi nchụaja, na ndị nchụaja ọzọ niile lere ya anya, ha hụrụ na ekpenta agbaala ya nʼegedege ihu ya, ha mere ka ọ site nʼebe ahụ pụọ ngwangwa. Ya onwe ya kwa chọkwara isite nʼebe ahụ pụọ ngwangwa, nʼihi na Onyenwe anyị tiri ya ihe otiti.
21 And Uzziah the king was a leper to the day of his death, and dwelt in a separate house, being a leper; for he was cut off from the house of the LORD: and Jotham his son was over the king’s house, judging the people of the land.
Eze Ụzaya bụ onye ekpenta ruo ụbọchị ọnwụ ya. O biri nʼụlọ ewupụrụ iche, ebe ọ bụ onye ekpenta, na onye amapụrụ site nʼụlọnsọ Onyenwe anyị. Jotam nwa ya ghọrọ onye nlekọta ụlọeze, na-achịkwa ndị ala ahụ.
22 Now the rest of the acts of Uzziah, first and last, were written by Isaiah the prophet, the son of Amoz.
Ihe ndị ọzọ niile mere nʼoge ọchịchị Ụzaya, site na mmalite ruo ọgwụgwụ, onye amụma Aịzaya nwa Emọz deturu ha nʼakwụkwọ.
23 So Uzziah slept with his fathers, and they buried him with his fathers in the field of the burial which belonged to the kings; for they said, He is a leper: and Jotham his son reigned in his stead.
Ụzaya soro ndị nna nna ya dina nʼọnwụ, e lie ya nso nʼọhịa ebe a na-eli ozu nke dịịrị ndị eze, maka na ndị mmadụ sịrị, “Ọ bụ onye ekpenta.” Jotam nwa ya, ghọrọ eze nʼọnọdụ ya.
