2 Chronicles 28
1 Ahaz [was] twenty years old when he began to reign, and he reigned sixteen years in Jerusalem: but he did not [that which was] right in the sight of the LORD, like David his father:
Ehaz gbara iri afọ abụọ mgbe ọ malitere ịbụ eze. Ọ chịkwara afọ iri na isii nʼime Jerusalem, ma o meghị ihe ziri ezi nʼanya Onyenwe anyị, dịka nna ya Devid mere.
2 For he walked in the ways of the kings of Israel, and made also molten images for Baalim.
Ọ gbasoro ụzọ niile nke ndị eze Izrel, kpụọkwa arụsị dị iche iche maka ofufe arụsị Baal.
3 Moreover, he burnt incense in the valley of the son of Hinnom, and burnt his children in the fire, after the abominations of the heathen whom the LORD had cast out before the children of Israel.
O surere ihe nsure ọkụ na-esi isi ụtọ dị iche iche nʼime Ndagwurugwu nke Ben Hinom, surekwaa ụmụ ya nʼọkụ. Ọ gbasoro omenaala niile rụrụ arụ nke ndị mba ọzọ, ndị ahụ Onyenwe anyị chụpụrụ site nʼihu ndị Izrel.
4 He sacrificed also and burnt incense in the high places, and on the hills, and under every green tree.
Ọ chụrụ aja surekwaa ihe nsure ọkụ aja na-esi isi ụtọ nʼebe niile dị elu, nʼelu ugwu niile, na nʼokpuru osisi ndụ ọbụla.
5 Wherefore the LORD his God delivered him into the hand of the king of Syria; and they smote him, and carried away a great multitude of them captives, and brought [them] to Damascus. And he was also delivered into the hand of the king of Israel, who smote him with a great slaughter.
Nʼihi ya, Onyenwe anyị Chineke ya nyefere ya nʼaka eze ndị Aram. Ndị Aram lụgburu ya, kpọrọ ọtụtụ nʼetiti ndị ya dịka ndị mkpọrọ kpọta ha nʼDamaskọs. E nyefekwara ya nʼaka eze Izrel, onye gburu ọtụtụ ndị agha ya.
6 For Pekah the son of Remaliah slew in Judah a hundred and twenty thousand in one day, [who were] all valiant men; because they had forsaken the LORD God of their fathers.
Nʼotu ụbọchị, Peka nwa Remalaya gburu narị puku ndị agha Juda na iri puku abụọ. Ihe ndị a mere nʼihi na ha gbakụtara Onyenwe anyị Chineke nna nna ha azụ.
7 And Zichri, a mighty man of Ephraim, slew Maaseiah the king's son, and Azrikam the governor of the house, and Elkanah [that was] next to the king.
Zikri onye Ifrem, onye bụ dike nʼagha, gburu Maaseia, nwa eze, na Azrikam onye na-elekọta ụlọeze. O gbukwara Elkena onye na-esota eze.
8 And the children of Israel carried away captive of their brethren two hundred thousand, women, sons, and daughters, and also took away much spoil from them, and brought the spoil to Samaria.
Ndị Izrel sitere nʼetiti ụmụnne ha ndị Juda dọta ndị inyom, na ụmụ okorobịa, na ụmụ agbọghọbịa ọnụọgụgụ ha dị narị puku abụọ nʼagha. Ha bukọkwaara ọtụtụ ihe ndị ọzọ ha kwatara nʼagha laghachi na Sameria.
9 But a prophet of the LORD was there, whose name [was] Oded: and he went out before the army that came to Samaria, and said to them, Behold, because the LORD God of your fathers was wroth with Judah, he hath delivered them into your hand, and ye have slain them in a rage [that] reacheth to heaven.
Ma Oded, onye amụma Onyenwe anyị, nọ na Sameria nʼoge a. Ọ pụrụ jekwuru ndị agha ahụ na Sameria sị ha, “Onyenwe anyị Chineke nna nna unu ha mere ka unu merie ndị Juda nʼihi na ha na-efe arụsị. Ma unu ji ọnụma gbuo ha, nke mere na ụzụ tụrụ ruo nʼeluigwe.
10 And now ye purpose to keep under the children of Judah and Jerusalem for bond-men and bond-women to you: [but are there] not with you, even with you, sins against the LORD your God?
Ugbu a, unu na-achọkwa ime ndị ikom na ndị inyom Juda na Jerusalem ndị ohu unu? Ma unu abụghị ndị ikpe mmehie mara nʼebe Onyenwe anyị Chineke unu nọ?
11 Now hear me therefore, and deliver the captives again, which ye have taken captive of your brethren: for the fierce wrath of the LORD [is] upon you.
Ugbu a, geenụ ntị nʼihe m na-ekwu. Kpọghachinụ ụmụnna unu ndị a unu dọtara nʼagha nʼụlọ ha, nʼihi na ugbu a Onyenwe anyị na-ewe oke iwe megide unu.”
12 Then certain of the heads of the children of Ephraim, Azariah the son of Johanan, Berechiah the son of Meshillemoth, and Jehizkiah the son of Shallum, and Amasa the son of Hadlai, stood up against them that came from the war.
Ụfọdụ ndịisi ndị Ifrem, bụ Azaraya nwa Jehohanan, na Berekaya nwa Meshilemot, na Jehizkaya nwa Shalum, na Amasa nwa Hadlai, biliri guzogide ndị ahụ si agha na-alọta.
13 And said to them, Ye shall not bring in the captives hither: for whereas we have offended against the LORD [already], ye intend to add [more] to our sins and to our trespass: for our trespass [is] great, and [there is] fierce wrath against Israel.
Ha sịrị, “Unu akpọbatakwala ndị a unu dọtara nʼagha nʼebe a, nʼihi na unu mee ya, anyị ga-abụ ndị ikpe maara nʼihu Onyenwe anyị. Unu chọrọ ịtụkwasị ihe na mmehie na ikpe ọmụma anyị? Nʼihi na ikpe ọmụma anyị adịla ukwuu, iwe ya dị ọkụ na-adịkwasịkwa nʼahụ Izrel.”
14 So the armed men left the captives and the spoil before the princes and all the congregation.
Ya mere, ndị agha ahụ hapụrụ ndị mkpọrọ ahụ na ihe niile ha bulatara, nʼihu ndị ozi na igwe mmadụ ahụ niile.
15 And the men who were expressed by name arose, and took the captives, and with the spoil clothed all that were naked among them, and arrayed them, and shod them, and gave them to eat and to drink, and anointed them, and carried all the feeble of them upon asses, and brought them to Jericho, the city of palm trees, to their brethren: then they returned to Samaria.
Mgbe ahụ, ndị ikom ahụ akpọrọ nʼaha nʼaha duuru ndị mkpọrọ ahụ, manye aka nʼihe ahụ niile a dọtara nʼagha wepụta uwe, na nri, na mmanya na akpụkpọụkwụ, na mmanụ, nyeghachi ha ndị ahụ niile a dọtara nʼagha. Ha bulitere ndị ọrịa nọ nʼetiti ndị ahụ a dọtara nʼagha kukwasị ha nʼelu ịnyịnya ibu. Emesịa, ha duuru mmadụ ahụ niile dughachiri ha ndị ha nọ na Jeriko, obodo nkwụ. Emesịakwa, ha laghachikwara azụ na Sameria.
16 At that time king Ahaz sent to the kings of Assyria to help him.
Nʼoge ahụ, eze Ehaz zigara ndị eze Asịrịa ozi ka ọ bịa nyere ya aka.
17 For again the Edomites had come and smitten Judah, and carried away captives.
Ndị Edọm bịara ọzọ buso Juda agha, ma dọrọkwa ọtụtụ nʼime ha nʼagha.
18 The Philistines also had invaded the cities of the low country, and of the south of Judah, and had taken Beth-shemesh, and Ajalon, and Gederoth, and Shocho with its villages, and Timnah with its villages, Gimzo also and its villages: and they dwelt there.
Ndị Filistia na-ebusokwa ụfọdụ obodo Juda dị na mgbada ugwu, na Negeb agha. Ha meriri ma bichikwaa obodo ndị a; Bet-Shemesh, na Aijalon, na Gederọt, na Soko, na Timna, na Gimzo, na obodo nta niile gbara ha gburugburu.
19 For the LORD brought Judah low because of Ahaz king of Israel: for he made Judah naked, and greatly transgressed against the LORD.
Ma Onyenwe anyị wedara Juda nʼala nʼihi Ehaz, eze Izrel onye mere ka ihe ọjọọ baa ụba na Juda, na-ekwesighị ntụkwasị obi ya nye Onyenwe anyị.
20 And Tilgath-pilneser king of Assyria came to him, and distressed him, but strengthened him not.
Mgbe Tiglat-Pilesa eze ndị Asịrịa bịara, o wetaara Ehaz nsogbu kama enyemaka.
21 For Ahaz took away a portion from the house of the LORD, and from the house of the king, and of the princes, and gave [it] to the king of Assyria: but he helped him not.
Ehaz weere ụfọdụ ihe dị nʼụlọnsọ Onyenwe anyị, na nke dị nʼụlọeze, sitekwa na nʼụlọ ndịisi obodo, were ha nye eze Asịrịa, ma ihe ndị a enyereghị ya aka.
22 And in the time of his distress he trespassed yet more against the LORD: this [is that] king Ahaz.
Nʼoge nsogbu ya, eze Ehaz gakwara nʼihu bụrụ onye na-ekwesighị ntụkwasị obi nye Onyenwe anyị.
23 For he sacrificed to the gods of Damascus, which smote him: and he said, Because the gods of the kings of Syria help them, [therefore] will I sacrifice to them, that they may help me. But they were the ruin of him, and of all Israel.
Ọ chụrụ aja nye chi niile nke Damaskọs, bụ ndị meriri ya nʼagha. Ọ sịrị, “Nʼihi na chi nke ndị eze Aram nyeere ha aka, ha ka m ga-achụrụ aja, ka ha nwee ike nyere m aka.” Ma ha bụ ihe wetaara ya ọdịda, bụrụkwa ọdịda nye Izrel niile.
24 And Ahaz collected the vessels of the house of God, and cut in pieces the vessels of the house of God, and shut up the doors of the house of the LORD, and he made for himself altars in every corner of Jerusalem.
Ehaz chịkọtara ngwongwo niile dị nʼụlọnsọ ukwu Chineke, gbujasịa ha. O mechiri ọnụ ụzọ niile e si abanye nʼụlọnsọ ukwu Onyenwe anyị, ma wuo ọtụtụ ebe ịchụ aja na nkuku ụzọ niile nʼime Jerusalem.
25 And in every several city of Judah he made high places to burn incense to other gods, and provoked to anger the LORD God of his fathers.
Nʼobodo niile ọbụla na Juda, o wuru ebe dị elu maka ịchụ aja dị iche iche nye chi ndị ọzọ, si otu a kpasuo Onyenwe anyị, bụ Chineke nna nna ya ha iwe.
26 Now the rest of his acts and of all his ways, first and last, behold, they [are] written in the book of the kings of Judah and Israel.
Ma banyere ihe ndị ọzọ niile mere nʼoge ọchịchị ya, site na mmalite ruo ọgwụgwụ, ọ bụ na e deghị ha nʼakwụkwọ akụkọ ihe mere nʼoge ndị eze Juda na Izrel?
27 And Ahaz slept with his fathers, and they buried him in the city, [even] in Jerusalem: but they brought him not into the sepulchers of the kings of Israel: and Hezekiah his son reigned in his stead.
Ehaz soro nna nna ya ha dina nʼọnwụ, e lie ya nʼobodo Jerusalem, ma ọ bụghị nʼime ili ebe a na-eli ndị eze Izrel. Hezekaya nwa ya, ghọrọ eze nʼọnọdụ ya.
