2 Athamaki 14
1 Na rĩrĩ, mwaka-inĩ wa keerĩ wa ũthamaki wa Jehoashu mũrũ wa Jehoahazu mũthamaki wa Isiraeli, Amazia mũrũ wa Joashu mũthamaki wa Juda akĩambĩrĩria gũthamaka.
In the second year of Joash the son of Joachaz the king of Israel became Amazyahu, the son of Joash the king of Judah, king.
2 Aarĩ wa mĩaka mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ na ĩtano rĩrĩa aatuĩkire mũthamaki, nake agĩthamaka arĩ kũu Jerusalemu mĩaka mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ na kenda. Nake nyina eetagwo Jehoadini, na oimĩte Jerusalemu.
Twenty and five years was he old when he became king, and twenty and nine years did he reign in Jerusalem. And his mother's name was Yeho'addan of Jerusalem.
3 Nĩekire maũndũ marĩa moonagwo magĩrĩire maitho-inĩ ma Jehova, no ti ta ũrĩa ithe Daudi eekĩte. Maũndũ-inĩ mothe eekire o ta ũrĩa ithe Joashu ekaga.
And he did what is right in the eyes of the Lord, yet not like David his father: in accordance with all that Joash his father had done, [so] did he.
4 No rĩrĩ, kũndũ kũrĩa gũtũũgĩru gũtieheririo; andũ maathiire o na mbere kũrutĩra magongona na gũcinĩra ũbumba kuo.
Nevertheless the high-places were not removed: as yet the people sacrificed and burnt incense on the high-places.
5 Thuutha wa ũthamaki gũkorwo ũrũmĩte moko-inĩ make, akĩũraga anene arĩa moragĩte ithe Joashu ũrĩa warĩ mũthamaki.
And it came to pass, when the kingdom was firmly established in his hand, that he slew his servants who had slain the king his father.
6 No rĩrĩ, ndaigana kũũraga ariũ a oragani acio, kũringana na ũrĩa kwandĩkĩtwo Ibuku-inĩ rĩa Watho wa Musa harĩa Jehova aathanĩte atĩrĩ: “Maithe ma ciana matikooragwo nĩ ũndũ wa ciana, o na kana ciana ciũragwo nĩ ũndũ wa maithe mao; o mũndũ arĩkuaga nĩ ũndũ wa mehia make mwene.”
But the children of the murderers he put not to death: as it is written in the book of the law of Moses, that the Lord commanded, saying, The fathers shall not be put to death for the children, nor shall the children be put to death for the fathers; but every man shall be put to death for his own sin.
7 Ningĩ nĩwe wahootire 10,000 cia andũ a Edomu kũu Gĩtuamba-inĩ gĩa Cumbĩ, na agĩtunyana itũũra rĩa Sela mbaara-inĩ, akĩrĩtua Jokitheeli, rĩĩtwa rĩrĩa rĩĩtagwo nginya ũmũthĩ.
He it was that smote of Edom in the valley of salt ten thousand men, and seized Sela' in the war, and called its name Yoktheel until this day.
8 Hĩndĩ ĩyo Amazia agĩtũma andũ kũrĩ Jehoashu mũrũ wa Jehoahazu mũrũ wa Jehu, mũthamaki wa Isiraeli, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ “Ũka tũngʼethanĩre ũthiũ kwa ũthiũ.”
Then sent Amazyah messengers to Jehoash, the son of Jehoachaz the son of Jehu, the king of Israel, saying, Come, let us look one another in the face.
9 No rĩrĩ, Jehoashu mũthamaki wa Isiraeli agĩcookeria Amazia mũthamaki wa Juda atĩrĩ: “Mahiũ ma nyeki-inĩ ma kũu Lebanoni nĩmatũmĩire mũtarakwa ndũmĩrĩri o kũu Lebanoni makĩwĩra atĩrĩ, ‘Heana mwarĩguo ahikio nĩ mũrũ wakwa.’ Hĩndĩ ĩyo nyamũ ya gĩthaka kũu Lebanoni ĩgĩũka ĩkĩrangĩrĩria mahiũ macio ma nyeki-inĩ na makinya mayo.
And Jehoash the king of Israel sent to Amazyahu the king of Judah, saying, The thornbush that was in the Lebanon sent to the cedar that was in the Lebanon, saying, Give thy daughter to my son for wife. And there passed along the wild beasts that were in Lebanon, and trod down the thornbush.
10 Ti-itherũ nĩũtooretie Edomu, na rĩu nĩũtuĩkĩte mwĩtĩĩi. Wĩgaathe nĩ ũndũ wa ũhootani waku, no ikara mũciĩ! Nĩ kĩĩ gĩgũtũma wĩrehere thĩĩna, wĩniinithie we mwene, o hamwe na andũ a Juda?”
Thou hast indeed smitten Edom, and thy heart hath lifted thee up: keep thy glory and stay in thy house; and why wilt thou meddle with misfortune, that thou mayest fall, thou, and Judah with thee?
11 O na kũrĩ ũguo, Amazia ndaigana gũthikĩrĩria; nĩ ũndũ ũcio Jehoashu mũthamaki wa Isiraeli akĩmũtharĩkĩra. We na Amazia mũthamaki wa Juda makĩngʼethanĩra kũu Bethi-Shemeshu thĩinĩ wa Juda.
But Amazyahu would not hear. Therefore Jehoash the king of Israel went up; and he and Amazyahu the king of Judah looked one another in the face at Beth-shemesh, which belongeth to Judah.
12 Andũ a Juda makĩhũũrwo nĩ andũ a Isiraeli, na o mũndũ akĩũrĩra gwake mũciĩ.
And Judah was defeated before Israel; and they fled every man to his tents.
13 Nake Jehoashu mũthamaki wa Isiraeli akĩnyiita Amazia mũthamaki wa Juda mũrũ wa Joashu mũrũ wa Ahazia, o kũu Bethi-Shemeshu. Ningĩ Jehoashu agĩthiĩ Jerusalemu na akĩmomora rũthingo rwa Jerusalemu, kuuma Kĩhingo-inĩ kĩa Efiraimu nginya Kĩhingo gĩa Koine, handũ ha buti ta magana matandatũ kũraiha.
And Jehoash the king of Israel caught Amazyahu the king of Judah, the son of Jehoash, the son of Achazyahu, at Beth-shemesh; and he came to Jerusalem, and made a breach in the wall of Jerusalem from the gate of Ephraim unto the corner-gate, four hundred cubits.
14 Nake akĩoya thahabu yothe na betha na indo ciothe iria ciarĩ thĩinĩ wa hekarũ ya Jehova na iria ciarĩ igĩĩna-inĩ cia nyũmba ya ũthamaki. Ningĩ agĩtaha andũ na agĩcooka Samaria.
And he took all the gold and the silver, and all the vessels that were found in the house of the Lord, and in the treasures of the king's house, and the children of the chiefs as hostages, and returned to Samaria.
15 Ha ũhoro wa maũndũ marĩa mangĩ makoniĩ wathani wa Jehoashu, na marĩa eekire, na marĩa aahingirie, o hamwe na mbaara yake ĩrĩa maarũire na Amazia mũthamaki wa Juda-rĩ, githĩ matiandĩkĩtwo ibuku-inĩ rĩa mahinda ma athamaki a Isiraeli?
Now the rest of the acts of Jehoash which he did, and his mighty deeds, and how he fought with Amazyahu the king of Judah, behold, they are written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel.
16 Jehoashu akĩhurũka hamwe na maithe make, agĩthikwo Samaria hamwe na athamaki a Isiraeli. Nake mũriũ Jeroboamu agĩtuĩka mũthamaki ithenya rĩake.
And Jehoash slept with his fathers, and was buried in Samaria with the kings of Israel: and Jerobo'am his son became king in his stead.
17 Amazia mũrũ wa Joashu mũthamaki wa Juda aatũũrire muoyo mĩaka ikũmi na ĩtano thuutha wa gĩkuũ kĩa Jehoashu mũrũ wa Jehoahazu mũthamaki wa Isiraeli.
And Amazyahu the son of Joash the king of Judah lived after the death of Jehoash, the son of Jehoachaz the king of Israel, fifteen years.
18 Ha ũhoro wa maũndũ marĩa mangĩ ma wathani wa Amazia, githĩ matiandĩkĩtwo ibuku-inĩ rĩa mahinda ma athamaki a Juda?
And the rest of the acts of Amazyahu, behold, they are written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah.
19 Nao andũ makĩgĩa ndundu ya kũmũũkĩrĩra kũu Jerusalemu, nake Amazia akĩũrĩra Lakishi, no magĩtũma andũ mamũrũmĩrĩre kũu Lakishi, na makĩmũũragĩra kuo.
Now they raised a conspiracy against him in Jerusalem: wherefore he fled to Lachish; but they sent after him to Lachish, and slew him there.
20 Nĩacookirio akuuĩtwo na mbarathi, agĩthikwo Jerusalemu hamwe na maithe make, itũũra-inĩ inene rĩa Daudi.
And they brought him on horses: and he was buried at Jerusalem with his fathers in the city of David.
21 Hĩndĩ ĩyo andũ othe a Juda makĩoya Azaria arĩ na mĩaka ikũmi na ĩtandatũ, makĩmũtua mũthamaki ithenya rĩa ithe Amazia.
And all the people of Judah took 'Azaryah, who was sixteen years old, and they made him king instead of his father Amazyahu.
22 Nĩwe waakire Elathu rĩngĩ, na akĩrĩcookeria Juda thuutha wa Amazia kũhurũka na maithe make.
He it was that built Elath, and brought it back to Judah, after the king slept with his fathers.
23 Mwaka-inĩ wa ikũmi na ĩtano wa wathani wa Amazia mũrũ wa Joashu mũthamaki wa Juda, Jeroboamu mũrũ wa Jehoashu, mũthamaki wa Isiraeli agĩtuĩka mũthamaki kũu Samaria, na agĩthamaka mĩaka mĩrongo ĩna na ũmwe.
In the fifteenth year of Amazyahu the son of Joash the king of Judah became Jerobo'am the son of Joash the king of Israel king in Samaria, [for] forty and one years.
24 Nĩekire maũndũ mooru maitho-inĩ ma Jehova, na ndaatiganire na mehia o na mamwe ma Jeroboamu mũrũ wa Nebati marĩa aatũmĩte Isiraeli meehie.
And he did what is evil in the eyes of the Lord: he departed not from all the sins of Jerobo'am the son of Nebat, who induced Israel to sin.
25 Nĩwe wacookirie mĩhaka ya Isiraeli kuuma Lebo-Hamathu nginya Iria-inĩ rĩa Araba kũringana na kiugo kĩa Jehova Ngai wa Isiraeli kĩrĩa kĩarĩtio nĩ ndungata yake Jona mũrũ wa Amitai, ũrĩa warĩ mũnabii kuuma Gathi-Heferi.
He restored the boundary of Israel from the entrance of Chamath unto the sea of the plain; in accordance with the word of the Lord God of Israel, which he had spoken by means of his servant Jonah the son of Amitthai, the prophet, who was of Gathchepher.
26 Jehova nĩonete ruo rũnene rwa andũ othe a Isiraeli, arĩa maarĩ ngombo na arĩa mataarĩ ngombo, akĩona ũrĩa maathĩĩnĩkĩte, na gũtiarĩ mũndũ o na ũmwe wa kũmateithia.
For the Lord saw the affliction of Israel, which was very bitter; that the guarded was no more, and that the fortified was no more, and there was no helper for Israel.
27 Na tondũ Jehova ndoigĩte atĩ nĩegũtharia rĩĩtwa rĩa Isiraeli gũkũ thĩ-rĩ, nĩamahonokirie na guoko kwa Jeroboamu mũrũ wa Jehoashu.
And the Lord had not spoken that he would blot out the name of Israel from under the heavens; but he helped them by means of Jerobo'am the son of Joash.
28 Ha ũhoro wa maũndũ marĩa mangĩ makoniĩ wathani wa Jeroboamu, ũrĩa wothe eekire, o na mbaara iria aahootanire, o na ũrĩa aatunyanĩire Isiraeli matũũra ma Dameski na Hamathu, marĩa maarĩ ma Juda tene-rĩ, githĩ matiandĩkĩtwo ibuku-inĩ rĩa mahinda ma athamaki a Isiraeli?
Now the rest of the acts of Jerobo'am, and all that he did, and his mighty deeds, how he warred, and how he brought back Damascus and Chamath, [which had belonged] to Judah, to Israel, behold, they are written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel.
29 Jeroboamu nĩahurũkire hamwe na maithe make, o acio maarĩ athamaki a Isiraeli. Nake mũriũ Zekaria agĩtuĩka mũthamaki ithenya rĩake.
And Jerobo'am slept with his fathers, with the kings of Israel: and Zechariah his son became king in his stead.
