1 Nʼafọ nke iri na abụọ nke ọchịchị Ehaz, bụ eze Juda, ka Hoshea nwa Elaa ghọrọ eze Izrel nʼobodo Sameria. Ọ chịrị dịka eze afọ itoolu.
Yn the tweluethe yeer of Achaz, kyng of Juda, Osee, sone of Hela, regnyde in Samarie on Israel nyne yeer.
2 O mere ihe ọjọọ nʼanya Onyenwe anyị mgbe ọ bụ eze. Ma ọ bụghị dịka ndị eze Izrel ndị ọzọ bu ya ụzọ.
And he dide yuel bifor the Lord, but not as the kyngis of Israel, that weren bifor hym.
3 Shalmanesa eze Asịrịa bịara buso Hoshea agha, nʼihi na Hoshea nọ nʼokpuru ọchịchị eze Asịrịa, bụrụkwa onye na-atụ ụtụ nye ya kwa afọ.
Salmanasar, kyng of Assiriens, stiede ayens this Osee, and Osee was maad seruaunt to hym, and yildide tributis to hym.
4 Ma eze Asịrịa chọpụtara na Hoshea abụghị onye kwesiri ntụkwasị obi nʼihi na Hoshea eze Izrel zipụrụ ndị ozi ya ka ha jekwuru So, eze Ijipt, maka enyemaka. Ọzọkwa, Hoshea kwụsịrị ịtụ ụtụ nye eze Asịrịa dịka ọ na-eme kwa afọ. Nʼihi ya Shalmanesa nwụchiri ya, tinye ya nʼụlọ mkpọrọ.
And whanne the kyng of Assiriens hadde perseyued, that Osee he enforside to be rebelle, and hadde sent messangeris to Sua, kyng of Egipt, that he schulde not yyue tributis to the kyng of Assiriens, as he was wont bi alle yeeris, `the kyng of Assiriens bisegide hym, and sente him boundun in to prisoun.
5 Eze Asịrịa wakporo ala ahụ niile nʼagha, gbagoo imegide Sameria, nọchibido ya gburugburu, afọ atọ.
And he yede thoruy al the lond, and he stiede to Samarie, and bisegide it bi thre yeer.
6 Nʼafọ itoolu nke ọchịchị Hoshea, eze Asịrịa dọtara Sameria nʼagha, dọkpụrụ ndị Izrel niile buga ha nʼala Asịrịa. O mere ka ha biri nʼobodo Hala, nʼime Gozan nke dị nʼosimiri Hoboa, na nʼime obodo ndị Midia.
Forsothe in the nynthe yeer of Osee, the kyng of Assiriens took Samarie, and translatide Israel in to Assiriens; and he puttide hem in Hela, and in Thabor, bisidis the flood Gozam, in the citee of Medeis.
7 Ihe ndị a niile mere nʼihi na ndị Izrel mehiere megide Onyenwe anyị, bụ Chineke ha, onye ahụ mere ka ha site nʼokpuru ike Fero, eze Ijipt pụta. Ha kpọrọ isiala nye chi ndị ọzọ
Forsothe it was don, whanne the sones of Israel hadden synned bifor her Lord God, that ledde hem out of the lond of Egipt, fro the hond of Farao, kyng of Egipt, thei worschipeden alien goddis;
8 gbasoro omenaala niile nke ndị mba ahụ Onyenwe anyị chụpụrụ site nʼala ha. Ha gbasokwara omenaala ọjọọ ndị ahụ niile ndị eze ha webatara.
and yeden bi the custom of hethene men, whiche the Lord hadde wastid in the siyt of the sones of Israel, and of the kyngis of Israel, for thei hadden do in lijk maner.
9 Ndị Izrel mere ihe ndị ahụ niile Onyenwe anyị Chineke ha na-adịghị anabata na nzuzo. Ha wuru ebe ịchụ aja nye chi dị iche iche nʼobodo ha niile, e, nʼobodo ukwu ma nʼobodo nta ọbụla.
And the sones of Israel offendiden her Lord God bi wordis not riytful, and thei bildiden to hem silf hiy thingis in alle her citees, fro the tour of keperis `til to a strengthid citee.
10 Ha manyeere onwe ha ogidi nkume, na ogidi chi Ashera nʼelu ugwu ọbụla, na nʼokpuru osisi ọbụla nwere ndo.
And thei maden to hem ymagis, and wodis, in ech hiy hil, and vndur ech tree ful of bowis;
11 Ha chụrụ aja nsure ọkụ na-esi isi ụtọ nʼelu ugwu ọbụla dịka mba ndị naara ebi nʼala ahụ si eme, bụ ndị Onyenwe anyị chụpụrụ site nʼala ha, mgbe Izrel bịara biri nʼebe ahụ. Ha mere ihe ọjọọ dị iche iche, nke mere ka iwe wee Onyenwe anyị nke ukwuu.
and thei brenten there encence on the auteris bi the custom of hethene men, whiche the Lord hadde translatid fro the face of hem. And thei diden werste wordis, and thei wraththiden the Lord;
12 E, ha fere arụsị dị iche iche ofufe, lefuo anya na Onyenwe anyị dọrọ ha aka na ntị sị ha, “Unu emela ihe dị otu a.”
and worschipiden vnclenesses, of whiche the Lord comaundide to hem, that thei schulden not do this word.
13 Mgbe niile ka Onyenwe anyị na-eziga ndị amụma ya, na ndị ọhụ ụzọ, ịdọ Izrel na Juda aka na ntị, sị ha, “Sitenụ nʼajọ ihe unu na-eme chegharịa. Debenụ iwu na ụkpụrụ m, dịka iwu ahụ niile m nyere nna unu ha ka ha debe si dị, nke m sikwa nʼọnụ ndị ozi m bụ ndị amụma nye unu.”
And the Lord witnesside in Israel and in Juda, bi the hond of alle prophetis and seeris, and seide, Turne ye ayen fro youre werste weies, and kepe ye my comaundementis, and ceremonyes, bi al the lawe whiche Y comaundide to youre fadris, and as Y sente to you in the hond of my seruauntis prophetis.
14 Ma ndị Izrel jụrụ ige ntị. Kama ha kpachara anya kwesie olu ha ike dịka nna nna ha mere, bụ ndị na-ekwenyeghị na Onyenwe anyị Chineke ha.
Whiche herden not, but maden hard her nol bi the nol of her fadris, that nolden obeie to her Lord God.
15 Ha jụrụ ụkpụrụ ya niile na ọgbụgba ndụ ya, nke ya na ndị bụ nna nna ha gbara na iwu nke ọ dọrọ ha aka na ntị ka ha debe. Ha gbasooro chi arụsị bụ ihe efu, ha onwe ha ghọkwara ihe efu. Ha ṅomiri mba dị iche iche ndị ahụ bi ha gburugburu, nʼagbanyeghị na Onyenwe anyị nyere ha iwu sị, “Unu emela dịka ha.”
And thei castiden, awei the lawful thingis of hym, and the couenaunt which he couenauntide with her fadris, and the witnessyngis bi whiche he witnesside to hem; and thei sueden vanytees, `that is, idols, and diden veynli; and sueden hethene men, that weren `bi the cumpas of hem; of whiche vanytees the Lord comaundide to hem, that thei schulden not do as also tho hethene men diden.
16 Ha jụrụ idebe iwu niile Onyenwe anyị Chineke ha nyere ha. Ha meere onwe ha ogidi arụsị Ashera, kpụọrọ onwe ha oyiyi ụmụ ehi abụọ. Ha kpọrọ isiala nye Baal, na anyanwụ, na ọnwa, na kpakpando.
And thei forsoken alle the comaundementis of her Lord God, and thei maden to hem twei yotun calues, and wodis, and worschipiden al the knyythod of heuene; and thei seruyden Baal, and halewiden to hym her sones,
17 Ha jiri ụmụ ha ndị ikom na ụmụ ha ndị inyom chụọ aja nsure ọkụ nye chi ndị mba ọzọ. Ha gakwara nʼaja ịjụ ase, na ịgba aja, si otu a nyefee onwe ha nʼaka ime ihe jọrọ njọ nʼanya Onyenwe anyị, si otu a kpasuo ya iwe.
and her douytris thoruy fier, and thei seruyden to fals dyuynyng, and to dyuynyng bi chiterynge of briddis; and thei yauen hem silf to do yuel bifor the Lord, and thei wraththiden hym.
18 Ya mere, Onyenwe anyị wesoro Izrel iwe nke ukwuu, wezuga ha site nʼihu ya. Ọ dịkwaghị onye o kwere ka ọ fọdụ, karịakwa naanị ebo Juda.
And the Lord was wrooth greetli to Israel; and he took awei hem fro his siyt, and noon lefte, no but the lynage of Juda oneli.
19 Ma ndị Juda jụkwara idebe ihe niile Onyenwe anyị bụ Chineke ha nyere ha nʼiwu. Ha sooro omume ọjọọ ndị Izrel webatara.
But nether Juda hym silf kepte the heestis of `his Lord God, netheles he erride, and yede in the errour of Israel, whiche it wrouyte.
20 Nʼihi nke a, Onyenwe anyị jụrụ ndị Izrel niile. Ọ tara ha ahụhụ site nʼinyefe ha nʼaka ndị na-apụnara mmadụ ihe nʼike tutu ruo mgbe o mere ka e site nʼihu ya wezuga ha.
And the Lord castide awei al the seed of Israel, and turmentide hem, and bitook hem in the hond of rauynouris; til he castide awei hem fro his face,
21 Mgbe Onyenwe anyị mere ka ndị Izrel dọwapụ onwe ha site nʼalaeze Devid, ha mere Jeroboam nwa Nebat, eze ha. Ma Jeroboam mere ka Izrel site nʼiso Onyenwe anyị wezuga onwe ha. O mere ka ha mee mmehie dị ukwuu.
fro that tyme in which Israel was departid fro the hous of Dauid, and maden to hem a kyng, Jeroboam, sone of Nabath. For Jeroboam departide Israel fro the Lord, and made hem to do a greet synne.
22 Ọ dịkwaghị mgbe ụmụ Izrel sitere nʼime mmehie ahụ Jeroboam dubara ha pụta,
And the sones of Israel yeden in alle the synnes of Jeroboam, whiche he hadde do; and thei departiden not fro tho synnes,
23 tutu ruo mgbe Onyenwe anyị kpochapụrụ Izrel niile site nʼihu ya, dịka o kwuru na ọ ga-eme, site nʼọnụ ndị amụma na-ejere ya ozi. Ọ bụ nke a mere ndị Izrel ji gaa biri nʼAsịrịa dịka ndị a dọtara nʼagha ruo taa.
til the Lord dide awei Israel fro his face, as he spak in the hond of alle hise seruauntis prophetis; and Israel was translatid fro his lond in to Assiriens til in to this dai.
24 Eze Asịrịa sitere nʼala Babilọn, Kuta, Ava, Hamat na Sefavaim kpọta ndị mmadụ bịara biri nʼobodo Sameria ịnọchi anya ndị Izrel niile e sitere nʼebe ahụ bupụ. Nʼụzọ dị otu a, ha nwetara Sameria birikwa nʼobodo ya niile.
Forsothe the kyng of Assiriens brouyte puple fro Babiloyne, and fro Cutha, and fro Hailath, and fro Emath, and fro Sepharuaym, and settide hem in the citees of Samarie for the sones of Israel; whiche hadden in possessioun Samarie, and dwelliden in the citees therof.
25 Ma mgbe ndị Asịrịa malitere ibi nʼebe ahụ, ha atụghị egwu Onyenwe anyị, maọbụ fee ya ofufe. Nʼihi ya, Onyenwe anyị zitere ọdụm ndị batara nʼetiti ha gbuo ụfọdụ mmadụ nʼime ha.
And whanne thei bigunnen to dwelle there, thei dredden not the Lord; and the Lord sente to hem liouns, that killiden hem.
26 Ya mere, e zigara eze Asịrịa ozi sị ya, “Ndị ahụ i dọtara nʼagha mee ka ha bịa biri nʼobodo Sameria amaghị ihe chi nwe ala ahụ chọrọ. O zitere ọdụm nʼetiti ha, nke na-egbu ha, nʼihi na ndị ahụ amaghị ihe ọ chọrọ.”
And it was teld to the kyng of Assiriens, and was seid, The folkis whiche thou translatidist, and madist to dwelle in the citees of Samarie, kunnen not the lawful thingis of God of the lond; and the Lord sente liouns in to hem, and lo! liouns sleen hem; for thei kunnen not the custom of God of the lond.
27 Eze Asịrịa nyere iwu sị: “Ka otu onye nʼime ndị nchụaja e si na Sameria dọta nʼagha laghachi gaa biri nʼebe ahụ, izi ndị bi nʼobodo ahụ ihe chi ala ahụ chọrọ.”
Sotheli the kyng of Assiriens comaundide, and seide, Lede ye thidur oon of the preestis, whiche ye brouyten prisoneris fro thennus, that he go, and dwelle with hem, and teche hem the lawful thingis of God of the lond.
28 Ya mere, otu nʼime ndị nchụaja ebuuru site na Sameria gaa ala ọzọ, bịara biri na Betel, kuziere ha otu ha ga-esi na-atụ egwu Onyenwe anyị.
Therfor whanne oon of these preestis had come, that weren led prisoneris fro Samarie, he dwellide in Bethel, and tauyte hem, how thei schulden worschipe the Lord.
29 Nʼagbanyeghị nke a, ndị mba ọbụla meere onwe ha chi nke aka ha nʼobodo ahụ niile ebe ha bi nʼime ya. Ha guzobere chi ndị a nʼụlọ arụsị nke ndị Sameria wuru nʼebe niile dị elu.
And ech folk made his god, and thei settiden tho goddis in the hiy templis, whiche the men of Samarie hadden maad, folk and folk in her citees, in whiche thei dwelliden.
30 Ndị si Babilọn mere chi ha a na-akpọ Sukọt Benot; ndị si Kut emee Neagal, ebe ndị si Hamat mekwara Ashima.
For men of Babiloyne maden Socoth Benoth; forsothe men of Cutha maden Vergel; and men of Emath maden Asyma;
31 Ndị si Ava mekwara Nibaz, na Tatak, ma ndị si Sefavaim na-esure ụmụ ha nʼọkụ dịka aja nye Adramelek na Anamelek, bụ chi ndị Sefavaim.
forsothe Eueis maden Nabaath and Tharcha; sotheli thei that weren of Sepharuaym brenten her sones in fier to Adramelech and Anamelech, goddis of Sepharuaym.
32 Ha tụrụ egwuOnyenwe anyị, ma ha họpụtara ụdị mmadụ dị iche iche site nʼetiti onwe ha, ndị na-ejere ha ozi dịka ndị nchụaja nʼụlọ chi ha dị nʼebe niile dị elu.
And netheles thei worschipiden the Lord; forsothe of the laste men thei maden preestis of the hiye thingis, and settiden hem in hiye templis.
33 Ha na-atụ egwu Onyenwe anyị ma ha gara nʼihu na-efe chi nke aka ha dịka omenaala mba ebe ndị e si dọta ha nʼagha si dị.
And whanne thei worschipiden God, thei serueden also her goddis, bi the custom of hethene men, fro whiche thei weren translatid to Samarie;
34 Ruo taa, ha na-anọgidesi ike nʼife ofufe dịka ụzọ ochie ha si dị. Ha adịghị atụ egwu Onyenwe anyị, maọbụ mee dịka ụkpụrụ na iwu niile, maọbụ dịka ntụziaka na ihe niile enyere nʼiwu si dị, bụ nke Onyenwe anyị nyere ụmụ Jekọb, onye ọ kpọrọ Izrel.
`til in to present dai thei suen the eld custom; thei dredden not the Lord, nethir thei kepen hise cerymonyes, and domes, and lawe, and comaundement, which the Lord comaundide to the sones of Jacob, whom he nemyde Israel;
35 Mgbe Onyenwe anyị na ndị Izrel gbara ndụ, o nyere ha iwu sị, “Unu atụkwala chi ọzọ ọbụla egwu, maọbụ kpọọ isiala nye ha. Unu efela ha ofufe maọbụ chụọ aja nye ha.
and he smoot a couenaunt with hem, and comaundide to hem, and seide, Nyle ye drede alien goddis, and onoure ye not outwardli hem, nethir worschipe ye inwardli hem, and make ye not sacrifice to hem;
36 Ma Onyenwe anyị, onye ji ike dị ukwuu, na aka dị ike e setịpụrụ esetipụ kpọpụta unu site nʼala Ijipt, bụ naanị onye unu ga-atụ egwu. Ya ka unu ga-akpọ isiala nye, ya ka unu ga-achụrụ aja.
but youre Lord God, that ledde you out of the lond of Egipt in greet strengthe, and in arm holdun forth, drede ye hym, and worschipe ye hym, and make ye sacrifice to hym.
37 Unu ga-elezi anya hụ na unu debere ụkpụrụ na iwu niile, ntụziaka na ihe niile enyere nʼiwu ndị a e depụtara nʼakwụkwọ nye unu. Unu atụkwala egwu chi ndị ọzọ.
And kepe ye the cerymonyes, and domes, and the lawe, and comaundement, which he wroot to you, that ye do in alle daies; and drede ye not alien goddis.
38 Unu echefula ọgbụgba ndụ ahụ mụ na unu gbara. Unu akpọkwala isiala nye chi ndị ọzọ nʼihi egwu.
And nyle ye foryete the couenaunt, which he smoot with you, nether worschipe ye alien goddis;
39 Kama, tụọnụ egwu ma fee Onyenwe anyị Chineke unu. Ọ bụ ya ga-anapụta unu site nʼaka ndị iro unu niile.”
but drede ye youre Lord God, and he schal delyuere you fro the hond of alle youre enemyes.
40 Ma ndị Izrel egeghị ntị, kama, dịka ụzọ ọjọọ ha si dị, ha fere chi ọzọ ofufe.
Forsothe thei herden not, but diden bi her formere custom.
41 Ọ bụ ezie na ndị a na-efe Onyenwe anyị ofufe, ma ha nọgidekwara na-ejere arụsị niile ha ozi. Ruo taa, ụmụ ha, na ụmụ ụmụ ha, gara nʼihu na-emekwa ihe nna nna ha mere.
Therfor these hethene men dredden sotheli God; but netheles thei serueden also her idols, for bothe her sones and the sones of sones doen so, til in to present dai, as her fadris diden.
