< 2 Athamaki 13 >
1 Na rĩrĩ, mwaka-inĩ wa mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ na ĩtatũ wa wathani wa Joashu mũrũ wa Ahazia mũthamaki wa Juda, Jehoahazu mũrũ wa Jehu agĩtuĩka mũthamaki wa Isiraeli kũu Samaria, nake agĩathana mĩaka ikũmi na mũgwanja.
In the three and twentieth year of Joash the son of Ahaziah, king of Judah, Jehoahaz the son of Jehu began to reign over Israel in Samaria for seventeen years.
2 Nĩekire maũndũ mooru maitho-inĩ ma Jehova nĩ ũndũ wa kũrũmĩrĩra mehia ma Jeroboamu mũrũ wa Nebati, marĩa aatũmĩte Isiraeli meehie, nake ndaigana kũmatiga.
He did that which was evil in the sight of Jehovah, and followed the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, with which he made Israel to sin; he did not depart from it.
3 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Jehova agĩcinwo nĩ marakara nĩ ũndũ wa Isiraeli, nake akĩmaneana ihinda iraaya moko-inĩ ma Hazaeli mũthamaki wa Suriata, na Beni-Hadadi mũriũ wake.
The anger of Jehovah was kindled against Israel, and he delivered them into the hand of Hazael king of Aram, and into the hand of Benhadad the son of Hazael, continually.
4 Nake Jehoahazu agĩthaitha Jehova, nake Jehova akĩmũigua tondũ nĩonete ũrĩa mũthamaki wa Suriata aahinyagĩrĩria Isiraeli.
Jehoahaz begged Jehovah, and Jehovah listened to him; for he saw the oppression of Israel, how that the king of Aram oppressed them.
5 Nake Jehova akĩhe Isiraeli mũhonokia, akĩmaruta kuuma watho-inĩ wa Suriata. Nĩ ũndũ ũcio andũ a Isiraeli magĩtũũra mĩciĩ-inĩ yao o ta tene.
(Jehovah gave Israel a savior, so that they went out from under the hand of the Arameans; and the children of Israel lived in their tents as before.
6 No rĩrĩ, matiigana gũtigana na mehia ma nyũmba ya Jeroboamu, marĩa aatũmĩte Isiraeli meehie; na magĩthiĩ na mbere namo, o na ningĩ gĩtugĩ kĩa Ashera gĩgĩtũũra kĩrũgamĩte kũu Samaria.
Nevertheless they did not depart from the sins of the house of Jeroboam, with which he made Israel to sin; they walked in them. And the Asherah also remained in Samaria.)
7 Gũtirĩ kĩndũ gĩatigarĩtio gĩa ita rĩa Jehoahazu, tiga andũ arĩa maathiiaga mahaicĩte mbarathi mĩrongo ĩtano, na ngaari ikũmi cia ita, na thigari cia magũrũ 10,000, nĩgũkorwo mũthamaki wa Suriata nĩathũkĩtie icio ingĩ agĩcitua o ta rũkũngũ rwa kĩhuhĩro-inĩ.
For he did not leave to Jehoahaz of the people any more than fifty horsemen, and ten chariots, and ten thousand footmen; for the king of Aram destroyed them, and made them like the dust in threshing.
8 Ha ũhoro wa maũndũ marĩa mangĩ makoniĩ wathani wa Jehoahazu, na ũrĩa wothe eekire, na maũndũ marĩa aahingirie-rĩ, githĩ matiandĩkĩtwo ibuku-inĩ rĩa mahinda ma athamaki a Isiraeli?
Now the rest of the acts of Jehoahaz, and all that he did, and his might, aren't they written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?
9 Nake Jehoahazu akĩhurũka hamwe na maithe make, na agĩthikwo Samaria. Nake mũriũ Jehoashu agĩtuĩka mũthamaki ithenya rĩake.
Jehoahaz slept with his fathers; and they buried him in Samaria: and Joash his son reigned in his place.
10 Mwaka-inĩ wa mĩrongo ĩtatũ na mũgwanja wa Joashu mũthamaki wa Juda, Jehoashu mũrũ wa Jehoahazu agĩtuĩka mũthamaki wa Isiraeli kũu Samaria, nake agĩthamaka mĩaka ikũmi na ĩtandatũ.
In the thirty-seventh year of Joash king of Judah, Jehoash the son of Jehoahaz began to reign over Israel in Samaria for sixteen years.
11 Nĩekire maũndũ mooru maitho-inĩ ma Jehova, na ndaatiganire na mehia o na mamwe ma Jeroboamu mũrũ wa Nebati, marĩa aatũmĩte Isiraeli meehie; aathiire na mbere namo.
He did that which was evil in the sight of Jehovah; he did not depart from all the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, with which he made Israel to sin; but he walked in it.
12 Ha ũhoro wa maũndũ marĩa mangĩ makoniĩ wathani wa Jehoashu, na ũrĩa wothe eekire, na maũndũ marĩa aahingirie, o na mbaara yake na Amazia mũthamaki wa Juda-rĩ, githĩ matiandĩkĩtwo ibuku-inĩ rĩa mahinda ma Athamaki a Isiraeli?
Now the rest of the acts of Joash, and all that he did, and his might with which he fought against Amaziah king of Judah, aren't they written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?
13 Jehoashu akĩhurũka hamwe na maithe make, nake Jeroboamu agĩikarĩra gĩtĩ gĩake kĩa ũnene. Jehoashu aathikirwo kũu Samaria hamwe na athamaki a Isiraeli.
Joash slept with his fathers; and Jeroboam sat on his throne: and Joash was buried in Samaria with the kings of Israel.
14 Na rĩrĩ, Elisha aarĩ mũrũaru mũrimũ ũrĩa wamũũragire. Nake Jehoashu mũthamaki wa Isiraeli agĩikũrũka, agĩthiĩ kũmuona na akĩmũrĩrĩra. Akiuga atĩrĩ, “Wũi baba-ĩ! Wũi baba-ĩ! Ngaari cia ita na ahaici a mbarathi a Isiraeli!”
Now Elisha was fallen sick of his sickness of which he died: and Joash the king of Israel came down to him, and wept over him, and said, "My father, my father, the chariots of Israel and its horsemen."
15 Nake Elisha akiuga atĩrĩ, “Oya ũta o na mĩguĩ.” nake agĩĩka o ũguo.
Elisha said to him, "Take bow and arrows"; and he took to him bow and arrows.
16 Nake akĩĩra mũthamaki wa Isiraeli atĩrĩ, “Oya ũta na moko maku,” nake aarĩkia kuoya, Elisha akĩigĩrĩra mũthamaki moko.
He said to the king of Israel, "Put your hand on the bow"; and he put his hand on it. Elisha laid his hands on the king's hands.
17 Akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Hingũra ndirica ya irathĩro,” Nake akĩmĩhingũra. Elisha akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Ikia mũguĩ!” Nake akĩũikia. Elisha akiuga atĩrĩ, “Ũyũ nĩ mũguĩ wa Jehova wa ũhootani, wa kũhoota Asuriata! Nĩũkahoota Asuriata kũu Afeki na ũmaniine biũ.”
He said, "Open the window eastward"; and he opened it. Then Elisha said, "Shoot." and he shot. He said, "Jehovah's arrow of victory, even the arrow of victory over Aram; for you shall strike the Arameans in Aphek, until you have consumed them."
18 Agĩcooka akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Oya mĩguĩ,” Nake mũthamaki akĩmĩoya. Elisha akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Ta mĩgũthithie thĩ.” Nake akĩmĩgũthithia thĩ maita matatũ, agĩtiga.
He said, "Take the arrows"; and he took them. He said to the king of Israel, "Strike the ground"; and he struck three times, and stopped.
19 Nake mũndũ wa Ngai akĩrakara nĩ ũndũ wake, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Ũkwagĩrĩirwo nĩ kũmĩringithia maita matano kana matandatũ; ũguo nĩguo ũngĩgaatooria andũ a Suriata na ũmaniine biũ. No rĩu ũkaamahoota o maita matatũ tu.”
The man of God was angry with him, and said, "You should have struck five or six times. Then you would have struck Aram until you had consumed it, whereas now you shall strike Aram just three times."
20 Nake Elisha agĩkua na agĩthikwo. Na rĩrĩ, atharĩkĩri a kuuma Moabi maahũthĩrĩte gũtoonya bũrũri-inĩ o kĩambĩrĩria kĩa mwaka.
Elisha died, and they buried him. Now the bands of the Moabites invaded the land at the coming in of the year.
21 Hĩndĩ ĩmwe andũ amwe a Isiraeli magĩthika mũndũ-rĩ, o rĩmwe makĩona gĩkundi kĩa atharĩkĩri; nĩ ũndũ ũcio magĩikia kĩimba kĩa mũndũ ũcio maathikaga mbĩrĩra-inĩ ya Elisha. Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa kĩimba kĩu kĩahutanirie na mahĩndĩ ma Elisha, mũndũ ũcio akĩriũka, akĩrũgama na magũrũ make.
It happened, as they were burying a man, that look, they spied a band; and they cast the man into the tomb of Elisha: and as soon as the man touched the bones of Elisha, he revived, and stood up on his feet.
22 Hazaeli mũthamaki wa Suriata aahinyĩrĩirie Isiraeli matukũ mothe ma ũthamaki wa Jehoahazu.
Hazael king of Aram oppressed Israel all the days of Jehoahaz.
23 No rĩrĩ, Jehova akĩmatuga na akĩmaiguĩra tha, akĩmarũmbũiya nĩ ũndũ wa kĩrĩkanĩro gĩake na Iburahĩmu, na Isaaka, na Jakubu. Nginyagia ũmũthĩ, akoretwo atekwenda kũmaniina kana kũmaingata mehere mbere yake.
But Jehovah was gracious to them, and had compassion on them, and had respect to them, because of his covenant with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, and would not destroy them, neither cast he them from his presence as yet.
24 Hazaeli mũthamaki wa Suriata agĩkua, nake mũriũ Beni-Hadadi agĩtuĩka mũthamaki ithenya rĩake.
Hazael king of Aram died; and Benhadad his son reigned in his place.
25 Hĩndĩ ĩyo Jehoashu mũrũ wa Jehoahazu agĩtunya Beni-Hadadi mũrũ wa Hazaeli matũũra marĩa Hazaeli aatahĩte mbaara-inĩ kuuma kũrĩ ithe Jehoahazu. Joashu aamũtooririe maita matatũ, na nĩ ũndũ ũcio agĩcookia matũũra ma Isiraeli.
Jehoash the son of Jehoahaz took again out of the hand of Benhadad the son of Hazael the cities which he had taken out of the hand of Jehoahaz his father by war. Joash struck him three times, and recovered the cities of Israel.
