2 Ndị Eze 14
1 Nʼafọ nke abụọ nke ịbụ eze Jehoash nwa Jehoahaz nʼIzrel, ka Amazaya nwa Joash eze Juda malitere ọchịchị ya.
In the second year of Joash son of Jehoahaz, king of Israel, Amaziah son of Joash, king of Judah, has reigned;
2 Amazaya gbara iri afọ abụọ na ise mgbe ọ malitere ịbụ eze. Ọ bụ eze na Jerusalem iri afọ abụọ na itoolu. Aha nne ya bụ Jehoadin, onye Jerusalem.
he was a son of twenty-five years in his reigning, and he has reigned twenty-nine years in Jerusalem, and the name of his mother [is] Jehoaddan of Jerusalem,
3 O mere ihe ziri ezi nʼanya Onyenwe anyị, ma o meghị dịka nna nna ya bụ Devid mere. Nʼihe niile, ọ gbasoro nzọ ụkwụ nna ya Joash.
and he does that which [is] right in the eyes of YHWH, only not like his father David; he has done according to all that his father Joash did,
4 Ọ wezugaghị ebe ịchụ aja niile dị nʼugwu. Ndị Juda gara nʼihu na-achụ aja na-esurekwa ihe nsure ọkụ na-esi isi ụtọ nʼelu ugwu ahụ niile.
only, the high places have not been removed—the people are still sacrificing and making incense in high places.
5 Mgbe alaeze ahụ siri ike nʼọchịchị ya, o gburu ndị ozi ahụ gburu eze, bụ nna ya.
And it comes to pass, when the kingdom has been strong in his hand, that he strikes his servants, those striking his father the king,
6 Ma o meghị ka ụmụ ndị ogbu mmadụ ahụ nwụọ, nʼusoro ihe e dere nʼakwụkwọ iwu Mosis, ebe Onyenwe anyị nyere iwu sị: “Agaghị eme ka ndị mụrụ ụmụ nwụọ nʼihi ihe ụmụ ha metara, maọbụ mee ka ụmụ nwụọ nʼihi ihe ndị mụrụ ha metara, onye ọbụla ga-anwụ nʼihi mmehie nke aka ya.”
and the sons of those striking [him] he has not put to death, as it is written in the Scroll of the Law of Moses that YHWH commanded, saying, “Fathers are not put to death for sons, and sons are not put to death for fathers, but each is put to death for his own sin.”
7 Amazaya bụ onye gburu puku ndị agha Edọm iri na Ndagwurugwu Nnu, dọtakwa obodo Sela nʼagha, gụgharịa ya Jekteel, nke bụ aha a na-akpọ ya ruo ụbọchị taa.
He has struck ten thousand of Edom in the Valley of Salt, and seized Selah in war, and [one] calls its name Joktheel to this day,
8 Mgbe ahụ, Amazaya zigara ndị ozi ka ha jekwuru Jehoash nwa Jehoahaz nwa Jehu, eze Izrel, zie ya ozi ịma aka, sị, “Bịa, ka dimkpa na ibe ya zute ihu na ihu nʼagha.”
then Amaziah has sent messengers to Jehoash son of Jehoahaz, son of Jehu, king of Israel, saying, “Come, we look one another in the face.”
9 Ma Jehoash eze Izrel zighachiri ozi nye Amazaya eze Juda sị ya, “Uke dị na Lebanọn zigaara osisi sida nke dị na Lebanọn ozi, sị ya, ‘Nye nwa m nwoke nwa gị nwanyị ka ọ bụrụ nwunye ya.’ Mgbe ahụ, anụ ọhịa nke dị na Lebanọn gafetere ebe ahụ, zọpịa uke ahụ.
And Jehoash king of Israel sends to Amaziah king of Judah, saying, “The thorn that [is] in Lebanon has sent to the cedar that [is] in Lebanon, saying, Give your daughter to my son for a wife; and a beast of the field that [is] in Lebanon passes by, and treads down the thorn.
10 I meriela Edọm, nʼezie. Ugbu a, mpako abatala. Ṅụrịa ọṅụ nʼihi mmeri nke i nwetara, ma nọdụ nʼụlọ gị. Nʼihi gịnị ka ị ga-eji kpaliere onwe gị nsogbu, si otu a wetara onwe gị na Juda ọdịda?”
You have certainly struck Edom, and your heart has lifted you up; be honored, and abide in your house; and why do you stir yourself up in evil, that you have fallen, you and Judah with you?”
11 Ma otu ọ dị, Amazaya egeghị ntị. Ya mere, Jehoash bụ eze Izrel buliri agha, ya na Amazaya eze Juda zutere ihu na ihu nʼagha na Bet-Shemesh, dị nʼala Juda.
And Amaziah has not listened, and Jehoash king of Israel goes up, and they look one another in the face, he and Amaziah king of Judah, in Beth-Shemesh, that [is] Judah’s,
12 Ndị Izrel meriri ndị Juda, mee ka ha gbalaga, nwoke ọbụla nʼụlọ ya.
and Judah is struck before Israel, and they each flee to his tent.
13 Jehoash bụ eze Izrel nwudere Amazaya bụ eze Juda, nwa Joash, nwa Ahazaya na Bet-Shemesh. Mgbe ahụ, Jehoash gara Jerusalem kwada mgbidi Jerusalem, site nʼỌnụ ụzọ ama Ifrem ruo nʼọnụ ụzọ ama Nkuku, nke ogologo ya ruru narị nzọ ụkwụ isii.
And Jehoash king of Israel caught Amaziah king of Judah, son of Jehoash, son of Ahaziah, in Beth-Shemesh, and they come to Jerusalem, and he bursts through the wall of Jerusalem, at the Gate of Ephraim to the Corner Gate, four hundred cubits,
14 Ọ chịkọrọ ọlaedo na ọlaọcha niile na ngwongwo niile ahụtara nʼụlọnsọ ukwu Onyenwe anyị, na nke dị nʼụlọakụ nke ụlọeze. Ọ dọtara ọtụtụ ndị mmadụ nʼagha, kpọrọ laghachi na Sameria.
and has taken all the gold and the silver, and all the vessels that are found in the house of YHWH, and in the treasures of the house of the king, and the sons of the pledges, and turns back to Samaria.
15 Ihe banyere akụkọ ndị ọzọ gbasara ọchịchị Jehoash, na ihe o mere, na ihe ọ rụpụtara, tinyere agha ọ lụrụ megide Amazaya eze Juda, ọ bụ na-edeghị ha nʼakwụkwọ akụkọ ihe ndị eze Izrel mere nʼoge ha?
And the rest of the matters of Jehoash that he did, and his might, and how he fought with Amaziah king of Judah, are they not written on the scroll of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel?
16 Jehoash sooro nna nna ya ha dinaa nʼọnwụ, e lie ya na Sameria, ebe e liri eze ndị Izrel ndị ọzọ. Jeroboam nwa ya ghọrọ eze nʼọnọdụ ya.
And Jehoash lies with his fathers, and is buried in Samaria with the kings of Israel, and his son Jeroboam reigns in his stead.
17 Amazaya nwa Joash, eze Juda nọrọ ndụ afọ iri na ise, mgbe Jehoash nwa Jehoahaz, eze Izrel nwụsịrị.
And Amaziah son of Joash, king of Judah, lives after the death of Jehoash son of Jehoahaz, king of Israel, fifteen years,
18 Ma banyere ihe ndị ọzọ niile mere nʼoge ọchịchị Amazaya, ọ bụ na e deghị ha nʼakwụkwọ akụkọ ihe mere nʼoge ndị eze Juda?
and the rest of the matters of Amaziah, are they not written on the scroll of the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah?
19 Ha gbara izuzu imegide ya nʼime Jerusalem, ọ gbapụrụ gbalaga Lakish. Ma ha zipụrụ ndị ikom chụụrụ ya gaa Lakish, gbuo ya nʼebe ahụ.
And they make a conspiracy against him in Jerusalem, and he flees to Lachish, and they send after him to Lachish, and put him to death there,
20 Ha bulatara ozu ya nʼelu ịnyịnya, e lie ya na Jerusalem nʼebe e liri ndị nna nna ya ha, nʼobodo Devid.
and lift him up on the horses, and he is buried in Jerusalem with his fathers in the City of David.
21 Mgbe ahụ, ndị Juda niile duuru Azaraya onye aha ya bụkwa Uzaya, onye gbara afọ iri na isii, mee ya eze nʼọnọdụ nna ya Amazaya.
And all the people of Judah take Azariah, and he [is] a son of sixteen years, and cause him to reign instead of his father Amaziah;
22 Ọ bụ ya wugharịrị obodo Elat, nyeghachi ya Juda, mgbe Amazaya eze sooro ndị nna nna ya ha dina nʼọnwụ.
he has built Elath, and brings it back to Judah, after the lying of the king with his fathers.
23 Nʼafọ nke iri na ise nke Amazaya nwa Joash, eze Juda, Jeroboam nwa Jehoash eze Izrel ghọrọ eze na Sameria. Ọ chịrị iri afọ anọ na otu dịka eze.
In the fifteenth year of Amaziah son of Joash, king of Judah, Jeroboam son of Joash, king of Israel, has reigned in Samaria, forty-one years,
24 Ma o mere ihe ọjọọ nʼanya Onyenwe anyị nʼihi na o wezugaghị onwe ya site na mmehie Jeroboam nwa Nebat, onye ahụ dubara ndị Izrel na mmehie.
and he does evil in the eyes of YHWH; he has not turned aside from all the sins of Jeroboam son of Nebat that he caused Israel to sin.
25 Ọ bụ ya weghachitara oke ala Izrel site na Lebo Hamat ruo nʼosimiri Araba, dịka okwu Onyenwe anyị, Chineke nke Izrel si dị, nke o kwuru site nʼọnụ Jona nwa Amitai, onye amụma si Gat Hefa.
He has brought back the border of Israel, from the entering in of Hamath to the sea of the desert, according to the word of YHWH, God of Israel, that He spoke by the hand of His servant Jonah son of Amittai the prophet, who [is] of Gath-Hepher,
26 Onyenwe anyị hụrụ ọnọdụ ọjọọ nke ndị Izrel nọ nʼime ya; onye ọbụla nʼime ha, ohu na onye nwe onwe ya, nọ nʼoke ahụhụ. Ọ dịkwaghị onye inyeaka ọbụla ha nwere.
for YHWH has seen the very bitter affliction of Israel, and there is none restrained, and there is none left, and there is no helper for Israel;
27 Ma ọ bụghị uche Onyenwe anyị ịla Izrel nʼiyi kpamkpam nʼokpuru eluigwe, nʼihi ya ka o mere ka Jeroboam nwa Jehoash napụta ha site nʼaka ndị iro ha.
and YHWH has not spoken to blot out the name of Israel from under the heavens, and saves them by the hand of Jeroboam son of Joash.
28 Akụkọ niile gbasara ihe niile Jeroboam mere, na ike ya niile, na agha niile o buru, na otu o si nwetaghachiri ndị Izrel obodo Damaskọs na Hamat, bụ obodo ndị Juda, ọ bụ na e deghị ha nʼakwụkwọ akụkọ ihe ndị eze Izrel mere nʼụbọchị ndụ ha?
And the rest of the matters of Jeroboam, and all that he did, and his might with which he fought, and with which he brought back Damascus, and Hamath of Judah, into Israel, are they not written on the scroll of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel?
29 Jeroboam sooro ndị nna nna ya ha dina nʼọnwụ, e lie ya nʼebe e liri ndị eze Izrel nwụrụ anwụ. Ma Zekaraya nwa ya ghọrọ eze Izrel nʼọnọdụ ya.
And Jeroboam lies with his fathers, with the kings of Israel, and his son Zechariah reigns in his stead.
