Luo Chronicle 21
1 Jehoshaphat el misa ac pukpuki inkulyuk lun mwet leum in Siti sel David, ac Jehoram wen natul, el aolulla in tokosra.
Jehoshaphat slept with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers in David’s city; and Jehoram his son reigned in his place.
2 Jehoram wen natul Jehoshaphat, tokosra lun Judah, oasr tamulel onkosr wial: Azariah, Jehiel, Zechariah, Azariahu, Michael, ac Shephatiah.
He had brothers, the sons of Jehoshaphat: Azariah, Jehiel, Zechariah, Azariah, Michael, and Shephatiah. All these were the sons of Jehoshaphat king of Israel.
3 Papa tumalos ah sang nu selos lupa na yohk ke silver, gold, ac kutu pac ma saok. El oayapa sang tuh kais sie selos in leumi siti ma kuhlusyukyak in acn Judah. Tuh ke sripen Jehoram pa matu emeet, Jehoshaphat el sang in el pa aolul.
Their father gave them great gifts of silver, of gold, and of precious things, with fortified cities in Judah; but he gave the kingdom to Jehoram, because he was the firstborn.
4 Ke Jehoram el ku na pwaye fin tokosrai sac, el sap in anwuki tamulel lal ah kewa, oayapa kutu mwet pwapa fulat lun Israel.
Now when Jehoram had risen up over the kingdom of his father, and had strengthened himself, he killed all his brothers with the sword, and also some of the princes of Israel.
5 Jehoram el tokosrala ke el yac tolngoul luo, ac el leum in Jerusalem ke lusen yac oalkosr.
Jehoram was thirty-two years old when he began to reign, and he reigned eight years in Jerusalem.
6 El fahsr tukun ouiya koluk lal Tokosra Ahab ac tokosra pac saya lun Israel, mweyen el payuk sin sie sin acn natul Ahab. El orekma koluk lain LEUM GOD,
He walked in the way of the kings of Israel, as did Ahab’s house, for he had Ahab’s daughter as his wife. He did that which was evil in the LORD’s sight.
7 tusruktu LEUM GOD El tia lungse kunausla tokosra in sou lal David, mweyen El tuh orala wulela se nu sel David mu tulik natul pa ac tokosra nwe tok.
However the LORD would not destroy David’s house, because of the covenant that he had made with David, and as he promised to give a lamp to him and to his children always.
8 In pacl Jehoram el tokosra, acn Edom tuyak lain ac Judah, ac srengla lukelos ac srukak sie tokosra lalos sifacna.
In his days Edom revolted from under the hand of Judah, and made a king over themselves.
9 Ouinge Jehoram ac captain lun mwet mweun lal ah elos kasrusr ke chariot ac som mweuni mwet Edom. Mwet mweun lun Edom raunelosla, tusruktu mwet Judah elos konoiak inkanek in kaingla ke fong.
Then Jehoram went there with his captains and all his chariots with him. He rose up by night and struck the Edomites who surrounded him, along with the captains of the chariots.
10 In pacl sac me, mwet Edom tila muta ye ku lun mwet Judah. In pacl sacn pacna, siti Libnah tuyak pac lain acn Judah, mweyen Jehoram el pilesru LEUM GOD lun mwet matu lal.
So Edom has been in revolt from under the hand of Judah to this day. Then Libnah revolted at the same time from under his hand, because he had forsaken the LORD, the God of his fathers.
11 El musai pac nien alu lun mwet pegan infulan eol in Judah, ac el kol mwet Judah ac mwet Jerusalem in oru ma koluk lain LEUM GOD.
Moreover he made high places in the mountains of Judah, and made the inhabitants of Jerusalem play the prostitute, and led Judah astray.
12 Mwet palu Elijah el supwala leta se nu sel Jehoram, ac pa inge ma simla loac: “LEUM GOD lal David, papa matu tomom, el lain kom mweyen kom tia fahsr ke ouiya lun Tokosra Jehoshaphat, papa tomom, ku Tokosra Asa, papa matu tomom.
A letter came to him from Elijah the prophet, saying, “the LORD, the God of David your father, says, ‘Because you have not walked in the ways of Jehoshaphat your father, nor in the ways of Asa king of Judah,
13 A kom fahsr ke lumah lun tokosra Israel ac kolla mwet Judah ac mwet Jerusalem tuh elos in tia inse pwaye nu sin LEUM GOD, oana Ahab ac mwet kol tokol tuh kol mwet Israel in tia pwaye nu sin LEUM GOD. Kom oayapa uniya tamulel lom, sruhk elos wo liki kom.
but have walked in the way of the kings of Israel, and have made Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem to play the prostitute like Ahab’s house did, and also have slain your brothers of your father’s house, who were better than yourself,
14 Ke sripa inge, LEUM GOD El ac sang kalya upa nu sin mwet lom ac tulik nutum ac mutan kiom, ac El ac fah kunausla ma nukewa lowos.
behold, the LORD will strike your people with a great plague, including your children, your wives, and all your possessions;
15 Ac kom sifacna ac fah keok ke mas lun insiom, ac mas se inge ac fah yokyokelik ke len na len.”
and you will have great sickness with a disease of your bowels, until your bowels fall out by reason of the sickness, day by day.’”
16 Kutu mwet Philistia ac mwet Arabia muta apkuran nu yen ma mwet Ethiopia muta we sisken meoa. LEUM GOD El oru tuh elos in som mweunel Jehoram.
The LORD stirred up against Jehoram the spirit of the Philistines and of the Arabians who are beside the Ethiopians;
17 Elos utyak nu in acn Judah, ac usla mwe kasrup nukewa inkul sin tokosra, wi mutan nukewa kial oayapa tulik mukul nukewa natul sayal Ahaziah, su fusr oemeet sin tulik natul uh.
and they came up against Judah, broke into it, and carried away all the possessions that were found in the king’s house, including his sons and his wives, so that there was no son left to him except Jehoahaz, the youngest of his sons.
18 Na tukun ma inge nukewa, LEUM GOD El sang nu sin tokosra mas upa ke insial su el arulana keok kac.
After all this the LORD struck him in his bowels with an incurable disease.
19 Mas se lal inge yokyokelikna apkuran in yac luo, na el keoki nwe ke el misa. Mwet lal ah tiana tanak e in eoksra kacl, oana ke elos oru nu sin mwet matu lal meet ah.
In process of time, at the end of two years, his bowels fell out by reason of his sickness, and he died of severe diseases. His people made no burning for him, like the burning of his fathers.
20 Jehoram el mutawauk in tokosra ke el yac tolngoul luo, ac el leum in Jerusalem ke yac oalkosr. Wanginna mwet asor ke el misa. Elos piknilya in Siti sel David, tusruktu tia ke inkulyuk lun mwet leum.
He was thirty-two years old when he began to reign, and he reigned in Jerusalem eight years. He departed with no one’s regret. They buried him in David’s city, but not in the tombs of the kings.
