Luo Chronicle 28
1 Ahaz el tokosrala ke el yac longoul, ac el leum in Jerusalem ke yac singoul onkosr. El tia fahsr tukun srikasrak wowo lal Tokosra David, papa matu tumal, a el oru ma su tia akinsewowoye LEUM GOD,
Ahaz was twenty years old when he had begun to reign, and he reigned for sixteen years in Jerusalem. He did not do what is right in the sight of the Lord, as his father David did.
2 ac fahsr tukun srikasrak koluk lun tokosra lun Israel. El sap in orekla ma sruloala kacl Baal ke osra,
Instead, he walked in the ways of the kings of Israel. Moreover, he also cast statues for the Baals.
3 ac el akosak mwe keng Infahlfal Hinnom. El oayapa kisakin wen natul sifacna in mwe kisa nu sin ma sruloala ke el etai ouiya koluk lun mwet su LEUM GOD El lusla liki facl sac ke mwet Israel elos utyak nu we.
It is he who burned incense in the Valley of the son of Hinnom. And he purified his sons by fire, in accord with the ritual of the nations that the Lord put to death at the advent of the sons of Israel.
4 Ahaz el orek kisa ac akosak mwe keng ke nien alu lun mwet pegan, ac fineol uh, ac ye sak lul nukewa.
Also, he was sacrificing and burning incense in the high places, and on the hills, and under every leafy tree.
5 Ke ma inge, LEUM GOD lal El lela tuh tokosra Syria in kutangulla Tokosra Ahaz, ac usla mwet puspis liki acn Judah nu Damascus in mwet sruoh. LEUM GOD El oayapa eisalang Ahaz nu inpoun tokosra Israel, su arulana onela mwet Judah.
And so the Lord, his God, delivered him into the hand of the king of Syria, who struck him and took great plunder from his kingdom. And he carried it away to Damascus. Also, he was delivered into the hands of the king of Israel, and he struck him with great affliction.
6 Tokosra Pekah lun Israel, wen natul Remaliah, el uniya mwet siofok longoul tausin sin mwet Judah ke len sifanna, mweyen elos ngeta liki LEUM GOD lun papa tumalos, a mwet inge mwet na pulaik ke mweun.
And Pekah, the son of Remaliah, killed, on one day, one hundred twenty thousand, all of them men of war from Judah, because they had forsaken the Lord, the God of their fathers.
7 Sie mwet mweun lun Israel, su inel pa Zichri, el unilya Maaseiah wen natul Tokosra Ahaz. El oayapa unilya Azrikam, mwet kol su liyaung inkul sin tokosra, ac Elkanah, su akluo in leum yal tokosra.
In the same time, Zichri, a powerful man of Ephraim, killed Maaseiah, the son of the king, and Azrikam, the governor of his house, and also Elkanah, who was second to the king.
8 Mwet Judah finne ma wialos, a mwet Israel elos sruokya luofoko tausin mutan ac tulik lun mwet Judah, ac usalosla nu Samaria, wi pac ma wap puspis.
And the sons of Israel seized, from their brothers, two hundred thousand women, boys, and girls, and immense plunder. And they took it away to Samaria.
9 Sie mwet palu lun LEUM GOD su pangpang Oded el muta in siti Samaria. El osun nu sin mwet mweun Israel ke elos foloko ac us mwet sruoh lalos ac akola in utyak nu in siti uh. Na el fahk, “LEUM GOD lun papa tomowos El kasrkusrak sin mwet Judah, pwanang El lela kowos in kutangulosla. Tusruktu inge El lohng ke luman anwuk sulallal ma kowos oru nu selos.
At that time, there was a prophet of the Lord there, named Oded. And going out to meet the army arriving in Samaria, he said to them: “Behold, the Lord, the God of your fathers, having become angry against Judah, has delivered them into your hands. But you have killed them by atrocities, so that your cruelty has reached up to heaven.
10 Ac inge kowos akoo in oru tuh mukul ac mutan lun Jerusalem ac Judah inge in mwet kohs lowos. Ku kowos tiana etu lah kowos oru pac ma koluk lain LEUM GOD lowos?
Moreover, you wanted to subjugate the sons of Judah and Jerusalem as your men and women servants, which is a work that should never be done. And so you sinned in this matter against the Lord your God.
11 Porongo ma nga fahk uh! Mwet sruoh inge ma na wiowos. Lela elos in folokla. Kowos fin tia fuhlelosla, na LEUM GOD El ac kai kowos ke kasrkusrak lal.”
But listen to my counsel, and release the captives, whom you have brought from your brothers. For a great fury of the Lord is hanging over you.”
12 Mwet akosr sin mwet kol lun Tokosrai Epang elos wi pac tia insese nu ke ma mwet mweun elos oru inge. Inelos pa Azariah wen natul Jehohanan, Berechiah wen natul Meshillemoth, Jehizkiah wen natul Shallum, ac Amasa wen natul Hadlai.
And so, some of the leaders of the sons of Ephraim, Azariah, the son of Johanan, Berechiah, the son of Meshillemoth, Jehizkiah, the son of Shallum, and Amasa, the son of Hadlai, stood up against those who were arriving from the battle.
13 Elos fahk, “Nimet use mwet sruoh ingan nu inge. Ma koluk ma kut orala fal tari LEUM GOD Elan kasrkusrak sesr kac. Ac inge kowos lungse oru kutu ma su ac akyokyela koluk lasr?”
And they said to them: “You shall not lead back captives to here, lest we sin against the Lord. Why are you willing to add to our sins, and to build upon our old offenses? For indeed, the sin is great, and the furious anger of the Lord is hanging over Israel.”
14 Ke ma inge, mwet mweun uh sang mwet sruoh ac ma wap uh nu sin mwet uh ac mwet kol lalos.
And the warriors released the spoils and all that they had seized, in the sight of the leaders and the entire multitude.
15 Itukyang kunen mwet akosr inge in kitalik nuknuk ke ma wap nu sin mwet sruoh. Elos sang nuknuk ac fahluk nu selos, ac lupa fal ke mwe mongo ac mwe nim, ac elos sang mwe akmusra in unwela kinet kaclos. Mwet ma munas ac kofla fahsr, elos srakalosyang nu fin donkey, na mwet sruoh inge nukewa folokinyukla nu in acn Judah, ke siti Jericho su siti in sak palm. Na mwet Israel elos folokla nu yen selos in Samaria.
And the men, whom we mentioned above, rose up and took the captives. All those who were naked, they clothed from the spoils. And when they had clothed them, and had given them shoes, and had refreshed them with food and drink, and had anointed them because of the hardship, and had cared for them, whoever was not able to walk and whoever was feeble in body, they set them upon beasts of burden, and they led them to Jericho, the city of palm trees, to their brothers, and they themselves returned to Samaria.
16 In pacl se inge, Tokosra Ahaz el supwala kas nu sel Tiglath Pileser, Tokosra Fulat lun Assyria, ac siyuk kasru sel,
In that time, king Ahaz sent to the king of the Assyrians, requesting assistance.
17 mweyen mwet Edom elos sifil tuku mweuni mwet Judah, ac kutangulosla ac uslalosla nu in sruoh.
And the Edomites arrived and struck down many of Judah, and they seized great plunder.
18 In pacl sacn pacna, mwet Philistia elos utyak pac lain siti srisrik pe eol layen nu roto oayapa layen eir lun Judah. Elos sruokya siti Beth Shemesh, Aijalon, ac Gederoth, oayapa siti Soco, Timnah, ac Gimzo, wi ikul ma raunelosla, na elos oakwuki ac muta we.
Also, the Philistines spread out among the cities of the plains, and to the south of Judah. And they seized Beth-shemesh, and Aijalon, and Gederoth, and also Soco, and Timnah, and Gimzo, with their villages, and they lived in them.
19 Ke sripen Ahaz, tokosra lun Israel el akyokye ma koluk in acn Judah ac lain LEUM GOD, ouinge LEUM GOD El sang ma upa nu fin acn Judah.
For the Lord had humbled Judah because of Ahaz, the king of Judah, since he had stripped it of help, and had shown contempt for the Lord.
20 Tiglath Pileser, Tokosra Fulat lun Assyria, el tia kasrel Ahaz, a el lainul ac oru ma upa nu sel.
And he led against him Tilgath-pilneser, the king of the Assyrians, who also afflicted him and laid waste to him, without resistance.
21 Na Ahaz el eisla gold liki Tempul ac liki lohm sin tokosra, oayapa liki lohm sin mwet kol lun mwet uh, ac sang nu sel Tokosra Fulat. El ne oru ouinge, a tiana kasreyuk el.
And so Ahaz, despoiling the house of the Lord, and the house of the kings and the leaders, gave gifts to the king of the Assyrians, and yet it profited him nothing.
22 Ke mwe lokoalok upala nu sel Ahaz, el orekma koluk lain LEUM GOD yohk liki na meet.
Moreover, in the time of his anguish, he also added to his contempt against the Lord. King Ahaz himself, by himself,
23 El orek kisa nu sin god lun mwet Syria, su tuh kutangulla. El fahk, “God ingan lun mwet Syria elos kasru tokosra lun Syria, na nga fin orek kisa nu selos, elos ac ku in kasreyu pac.” Tusruktu ma el oru inge use mwe ongoiya nu sel ac nu sin mutunfacl sel.
immolated victims to the gods of Damascus, those who had struck him. And he said: “The gods of the kings of Syria assist them, and so I will please them with victims, and they will help me.” But to the contrary, they had been the ruin of him and of all Israel.
24 Sayen ma inge, el usla pac kufwen mwe orekma nukewa lun Tempul, ac kunausya in ip srisrik. El kaliya Tempul, ac tulokunak loang in acn nukewa in Jerusalem.
And so, Ahaz, having despoiled and broken apart all the vessels of the house of God, closed up the doors of the temple of God, and made for himself altars in all the corners of Jerusalem.
25 In siti nukewa in acn Judah, el musaela nien alu lun mwet pegan, yen mwe keng uh ac isisyak we nu sin god ngia. Sripe inge oru el sifacna pwanma kasrkusrak lun LEUM GOD lun papa tumal nu facl.
Also, he constructed altars in all the cities of Judah, in order to burn frankincense, and so he provoked the Lord, the God of his fathers, to wrath.
26 Ma nukewa su el orala ke el tokosra, mutawauk nwe ke safla, simla in [Sramsram Matu Ke Tokosra Lun Israel Ac Judah].
But the rest of his words, and all his works, the first and the last, have been written in the book of the kings of Judah and Israel.
27 Tokosra Ahaz el misa ac pukpuki in Jerusalem, tusruktu tia inkulyuk lun mwet leum. Hezekiah wen natul, el aolul in tokosra.
And Ahaz slept with his fathers. And they buried him in the city of Jerusalem. And they did not allow him to be in the sepulchers of the kings of Israel. And his son, Hezekiah, reigned in his place.
