< 2 Maũndũ 21 >
1 Nake Jehoshafatu akĩhurũka hamwe na maithe make na agĩthikwo hamwe nao o kũu Itũũra Inene rĩa Daudi. Nake mũriũ Jehoramu agĩtuĩka mũthamaki ithenya rĩake.
And Josaphat slept with his fathers, and was buried in the city of David: and Joran his son reigned in his stead.
2 Ariũ a ithe na Jehoramu mũrũ wa Jehoshafatu maarĩ Azaria, na Jehieli, na Zekaria, na Azariahu, na Mikaeli, na Shefatia. Acio othe maarĩ ariũ a Jehoshafatu mũthamaki wa Isiraeli.
And he had brothers, the six sons of Josaphat, Azarias, and Jeiel, and Zacharias, and Azarias, and Michael, and Zaphatias: all these [were] the sons of Josaphat king of Juda.
3 Ithe nĩamaheete iheo nyingĩ cia betha na thahabu na indo ingĩ cia goro, o hamwe na matũũra manene mairigĩre na thingo cia hinya kũu Juda, no aaheanire ũthamaki kũrĩ Jehoramu tondũ nĩwe warĩ mũriũ wa irigithathi.
And their father gave them many gifts, silver, and gold, and arms, together with fortified cities in Juda: but he gave the kingdom to Joram, for he [was] the firstborn.
4 Rĩrĩa Jehoramu eehaandire na akĩrũma ũthamaki-inĩ wa ithe-rĩ, nĩooragire ariũ a ithe othe na rũhiũ rwa njora, o hamwe na anene amwe a nyũmba ya ũthamaki a Isiraeli.
And Joram entered upon his kingdom, and strengthened himself, and killed all his brothers with the sword, and [some] of the princes of Israel.
5 Jehoramu aarĩ wa mĩaka mĩrongo ĩtatũ na ĩĩrĩ rĩrĩa aatuĩkire mũthamaki. Nake agĩthamaka arĩ Jerusalemu mĩaka ĩnana.
When he was thirty and two years old, Joram succeeded to his kingdom, and he reigned eight years in Jerusalem.
6 Agĩthiĩ na mĩthiĩre ya athamaki a Isiraeli, o ta ũrĩa nyũmba ya Ahabu yekaga, nĩgũkorwo aahikĩtie mwarĩ wa Ahabu. Nake agakĩĩhagia maitho-inĩ ma Jehova.
And he walked in the way of the kings of Israel, as did the house of Achaab; for a daughter of Achaab was his wife: and he did that which was evil in the sight of the Lord:
7 No o na kũrĩ ũguo-rĩ, nĩ ũndũ wa kĩrĩkanĩro kĩa Jehova kĩrĩa aarĩkanĩire na Daudi, Jehova ndeendaga kwananga nyũmba ya Daudi. Nĩeranĩire atĩ nĩarĩmenyagĩrĩra tawa nĩ ũndũ wake na njiaro ciake nginya tene.
nevertheless the Lord would not utterly destroy the house of David, because of the covenant which he made with David, and as he said to him that he would give a light to him and his sons for ever.
8 Hĩndĩ ya Jehoramu-rĩ, Edomu nĩmaremeire Juda na magĩtua mũndũ ũngĩ mũthamaki wao ene.
In those days Edom revolted from Juda, and they made a king over themselves.
9 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Jehoramu agĩthiĩ kuo na anene ake na ngaari ciake cia ita ciothe. Nao andũ a Edomu makĩmũrigiicĩria arĩ hamwe na anene a ngaari ciake cia ita, no agĩũkĩra ũtukũ, akĩũra.
And Joram went with the princes, and all the cavalry with him: and it came to pass that he arose by night, and struck Edom that compassed him about, and the captains of the chariots, and the people fled to their tents.
10 Nginya ũmũthĩ, Edomu matũũraga maremeire Juda. O ihinda rĩu andũ a Libina makĩregana na watho wa Jehoramu, nĩgũkorwo nĩatiganĩirie Jehova, Ngai wa maithe make.
And Edom revolted from Juda until this day. Then Lomna at that time revolted from [under] his hand, because he forsook the Lord God of his fathers.
11 O na ningĩ nĩakĩte kũndũ kũrĩa gũtũũgĩru kũu irĩma-inĩ cia Juda, na agatũma andũ a Jerusalemu mahũũre ũmaraya, na akahĩtithia andũ a Juda njĩra.
For he built high places in the cities of Juda, and caused the dwellers in Jerusalem to go a-whoring, and led Juda astray.
12 Jehoramu akĩnyiita marũa moimĩte kũrĩ mũnabii Elija maandĩkĩtwo atĩrĩ: “Jehova Ngai wa thoguo Daudi ekuuga ũũ: ‘Ndũthiĩte na mĩthiĩre ya thoguo Jehoshafatu, kana ya Asa mũthamaki wa Juda.
And there came to him [a message] in writing from Eliu the prophet, saying, Thus says the Lord God of your father David, Because you have not walked in the way of your father Josaphat, nor in the ways of Asa king of Juda,
13 No rĩrĩ, nĩũthiĩte na mĩthiĩre ya athamaki a Isiraeli, na nĩũtongoretie andũ a Juda na a Jerusalemu nĩguo mahũũre ũmaraya, o ta ũrĩa nyũmba ya Ahabu yekire. O na ningĩ nĩũũragĩte ariũ a thoguo, na andũ a nyũmba ya thoguo, na andũ maarĩ aagĩrĩru gũgũkĩra.
but have walked in the ways of the kings of Israel, and have caused Juda and the dwellers in Jerusalem to go a-whoring, as the house of Achaab caused [Israel] to go a-whoring, and you have slain your brethren, the sons of your father, who were better than yourself;
14 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, rĩu Jehova akiriĩ kũhũũra andũ aku, na ariũ aku, na atumia aku, na kĩndũ gĩothe gĩaku, acihũũre ihũũra inene.
behold, the Lord shall strike you with a great plague among your people, and your sons, and your wives, and all your store:
15 Wee mwene nĩũkũrũara mũno, ũrũare mũrimũ wa mara ũtangĩhona, nginya mũrimũ ũcio ũtũme mara maku mathire biũ.’”
and you [shall be afflicted] with a grievous disease, with a disease of the bowels, until your bowels shall fall out day by day with the sickness.
16 Jehova akĩarahũrĩra Jehoramu ũũru wa Afilisti na wa Arabu arĩa maatũũraga gũkuhĩ na Akushi.
So the Lord stirred up the Philistines against Joram, and the Arabians, and those who bordered on the Aethiopians:
17 Magĩtharĩkĩra Juda, na magĩkũhũũra, na magĩkuua indo ciothe iria ciarĩ nyũmba ya mũthamaki, o hamwe na ariũ ake na atumia ake. Ndaatigĩirio mũriũ o na ũmwe o tiga Ahazia ũrĩa warĩ mũnini mũno.
and they went up against Juda, and prevailed against them, and took away all the store which they found in the house of the king, and his sons, and his daughters; and there was no son left to him but Ochozias the youngest of his sons.
18 Thuutha wa maũndũ macio mothe-rĩ, Jehova nĩarehithĩirie Jehoramu mũrimũ wa mara ũtangĩhona.
And after all these things the Lord struck him in the bowels with an incurable disease.
19 Mahinda mathiianga, mũthia-inĩ wa mĩaka ĩĩrĩ-rĩ, mara make makiuma nĩ ũndũ wa mũrimũ ũcio, nake agĩkua arĩ na ruo rũnene mũno. Andũ ake matiigana gwakia mwaki nĩ ũndũ wa gĩtĩĩo gĩake, ta ũrĩa meekĩte nĩ ũndũ wa maithe.
And it continued from day to day: and when the time of the days came [to] two years, his bowels fell out with the disease, and he died by a grievous distemper: and his people performed no funeral, like the funeral of his fathers.
20 Jehoramu aarĩ wa mĩaka mĩrongo ĩtatũ na ĩĩrĩ rĩrĩa aatuĩkire mũthamaki, nake aathamakire arĩ Jerusalemu mĩaka ĩnana. Na rĩrĩ, akua gũtirĩ mũndũ wagĩire na kĩeha, nake agĩthikwo Itũũra Inene rĩa Daudi, no ndaathikirwo mbĩrĩra-inĩ cia athamaki.
He was thirty and two years old when he began to reign, and he reigned eight years in Jerusalem. And he departed without honor, and was buried in the city of David, but not in the tombs of the kings.
