2 Chronicles 33
1 Manasseh [was] twelve years old when he began to reign, and he reigned fifty and five years in Jerusalem:
Manase yalya obwakabaka nga wa myaka kkumi n’ebiri, n’afugira emyaka amakumi ataano mu etaano mu Yerusaalemi.
2 But did [that which was] evil in the sight of the LORD, like the abominations of the heathen, whom the LORD had cast out before the children of Israel.
N’akola ebitaali bya butuukirivu mu maaso ga Mukama, ng’agoberera ebikolwa eby’ekivve eby’amawanga Mukama ge yagoba mu maaso g’Abayisirayiri.
3 For he built again the high places which Hezekiah his father had broken down; and he reared up altars for Baalim, and made groves, and worshiped all the host of heaven, and served them.
N’addaabiriza ebifo ebigulumivu kitaawe Keezeekiya bye yali amenyeemenye, n’azimbira ne Baali ebyoto, n’akola ne Baasera, n’asinza era n’aweereza n’eggye lyonna ery’oku ggulu.
4 Also he built altars in the house of the LORD, of which the LORD had said, In Jerusalem shall my name be for ever.
N’azimba ebyoto mu yeekaalu ya Mukama, Mukama gye yayogerako nti, “Mu Yerusaalemi erinnya lyange mwe linaabeeranga emirembe gyonna.”
5 And he built altars for all the host of heaven in the two courts of the house of the LORD.
N’azimba ebyoto eby’okusinzizangako eggye lyonna ery’oku ggulu, mu mpya zombi eza yeekaalu ya Mukama.
6 And he caused his children to pass through the fire in the valley of the son of Hinnom: also he observed times, and used enchantments, and used witchcraft, and dealt with a familiar spirit, and with wizards: he wrought much evil in the sight of the LORD, to provoke him to anger.
N’awaayo abaana be ng’ekiweebwayo, n’abookera mu kiwonvu ekya mutabani wa Kinomu, n’akola eby’obufumu, n’alagulira mu bire, n’akola eby’obulogo, n’agendanga n’eri abaliko emizimu ne ddayimooni. N’akola ebitaali bya butuukirivu bingi mu maaso ga Mukama, n’asunguwaza nnyo Mukama.
7 And he set a carved image, the idol which he had made, in the house of God, of which God had said to David and to Solomon his son, In this house, and in Jerusalem, which I have chosen before all the tribes of Israel, will I put my name for ever:
N’addira ekifaananyi ekyole kye yakola, n’akiteeka mu yeekaalu ya Katonda, Katonda gye yayogerako eri Dawudi ne Sulemaani mutabani we nti, “Mu yeekaalu eno ne mu Yerusaalemi muno, bye nalonda mu bika byonna ebya Isirayiri, mwe munaabeeranga Erinnya lyange emirembe gyonna.
8 Neither will I any more remove the foot of Israel from the land which I have appointed for your fathers; provided they will take heed to do all that I have commanded them, according to the whole law and the statutes and the ordinances by the hand of Moses.
Sijjululenga nate kigere kya Isirayiri okuva mu nsi gye nawa bajjajjammwe, bwe baneekuumanga okukola bye mbalagidde, nga bagoberera amateeka gonna, n’ebiragiro, n’obulombolombo bye nnawa Musa.”
9 So Manasseh made Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem to err, [and] to do worse than the heathen, whom the LORD had destroyed before the children of Israel.
Naye Manase n’asendasenda Yuda n’abantu b’e Yerusaalemi okukola ebitaali bya butuukirivu okusinga amawanga Mukama ge yazikiririza mu maaso g’Abayisirayiri.
10 And the LORD spoke to Manasseh, and to his people: but they would not hearken.
Mukama n’ayogera ne Manase n’abantu be, kyokka ne batassaayo mwoyo.
11 Wherefore the LORD brought upon them the captains of the army of the king of Assyria, who took Manasseh among the thorns, and bound him with fetters, and carried him to Babylon.
Mukama kyeyava abasindikira abaduumizi b’eggye lya kabaka w’e Bwasuli, ne basiba Manase mu njegere ne mu masamba, ne bateeka eddobo mu nnyindo ye, ne bamutwala e Babulooni nga musibe.
12 And when he was in affliction, he besought the LORD his God, and humbled himself greatly before the God of his fathers,
Ng’ali eyo mu nnaku ye, ne yeegayirira Mukama Katonda we, ne yeetoowaza nnyo mu maaso ga Katonda wa bajjajjaabe.
13 And prayed to him: and he was entreated by him, and heard his supplication, and brought him again to Jerusalem into his kingdom. Then Manasseh knew that the LORD he [is] God.
N’amusaba, Mukama n’awulira okwegayirira kwe, n’amukomyawo e Yerusaalemi n’eri obwakabaka bwe. Awo Manase n’ategeera nga Mukama ye Katonda.
14 Now after this, he built a wall without the city of David, on the west side of Gihon, in the valley, even to the entrance at the fish-gate, and compassed about Ophel, and raised it up a very great highth, and put captains of war in all the fortified cities of Judah.
Oluvannyuma lw’ebyo n’addaabiriza bbugwe ow’ebweru ow’ekibuga kya Dawudi, ku luuyi olw’ebugwanjuba olwa Gikoni, mu kiwonvu, okutuuka awayingirirwa mu Mulyango ogw’Ebyennyanja, n’okwetooloola olusozi lwa Oferi, n’okumuzimba n’amuzimba ng’asingako bbugwe eyaliwo obuwanvu. N’ateeka n’abaduumizi b’eggye mu bibuga byonna ebiriko bbugwe mu Yuda.
15 And he took away the strange gods, and the idol out of the house of the LORD, and all the altars that he had built in the mount of the house of the LORD, and in Jerusalem, and cast [them] out of the city.
N’aggyamu bakatonda abamawanga n’ekifaananyi ekyole mu yeekaalu ya Mukama, n’ebyoto byonna bye yazimba ku kasozi ka yeekaalu ne mu Yerusaalemi, n’abisuula ebweru w’ekibuga.
16 And he repaired the altar of the LORD, and sacrificed on it peace-offerings and thank-offerings, and commanded Judah to serve the LORD God of Israel.
N’addaabiriza ekyoto kya Mukama, n’aweerayo ssaddaaka ez’ebiweebwayo olw’emirembe n’ez’okwebaza, n’alagira Yuda okuweerezanga Mukama Katonda wa Isirayiri.
17 Nevertheless, the people sacrificed still in the high places, [yet] to the LORD their God only.
Wabula abantu bo, ne beeyongera okuweerangayo ssaddaaka ku bifo ebigulumivu, nga baziwaayo eri Mukama Katonda waabwe.
18 Now the rest of the acts of Manasseh, and his prayer to his God, and the words of the seers that spoke to him in the name of the LORD God of Israel, behold, they [are written] in the book of the kings of Israel.
Ebyafaayo ebirala ebyabaawo mu mirembe gya Manase, ng’omwo mwe muli okusaba kwe eri Mukama n’ebigambo abalabi bye baamutegeezanga mu linnya lya Mukama Katonda wa Isirayiri, byawandiikibwa mu bitabo eby’omu mirembe gya bassekabaka ba Isirayiri.
19 His prayer also, and [how God] was entreated by him, and all his sin, and his trespass, and the places in which he built high places, and set up groves and graven images, before he was humbled: behold, they [are] written among the sayings of the seers.
Okusaba kwe, n’okusaasira kwa Katonda gy’ali, n’ebibi bye, n’obutali bwesigwa bwe, n’ebifo ebigulumivu bye yazimba, ne Baasera, n’ebifaananyi ebyole bye yassaawo nga taneetoowaza, byonna byawandiikibwa mu bitabo eby’omu mirembe gy’abalabi.
20 So Manasseh slept with his fathers, and they buried him in his own house: and Amon his son reigned in his stead.
Manase ne yeebakira wamu ne bajjajjaabe, n’aziikibwa mu lubiri lwe, Amoni mutabani we n’amusikira.
21 Amon [was] two and twenty years old when he began to reign, and reigned two years in Jerusalem.
Amoni yali wa myaka amakumi abiri mu ebiri we yaliira obwakabaka.
22 But he did [that which was] evil in the sight of the LORD, as did Manasseh his father: for Amon sacrificed to all the carved images which Manasseh his father had made, and served them;
N’akola ebitaali bya butuukirivu mu maaso ga Mukama, nga Manase kitaawe bwe yakola.
23 And humbled not himself before the LORD, as Manasseh his father had humbled himself; but Amon trespassed more and more.
Naye obutafaanana nga kitaawe Manase, Amoni n’ayongera ekibi ku kibi, n’ateetoowaza mu maaso ga Mukama.
24 And his servants conspired against him, and slew him in his own house.
Abakungu ba Amoni ne bamusalira olukwe ne bamuttira mu lubiri lwe.
25 But the people of the land slew all them that had conspired against king Amon; and the people of the land made Josiah his son king in his stead.
Naye Abantu ab’omu nsi ne batta abo bonna abasala olukwe okutta kabaka Amoni; ne bafuula Yosiya mutabani we okuba kabaka mu kifo kye.
