Luo Chronicle 33

1 Manasseh el yac singoul luo ke el tokosrala lun Judah, ac el leum in Jerusalem ke yac lumngaul limekosr.

Manasseh was twelve years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem fifty-five years.

2 Manasseh el oru ma koluk lain LEUM GOD, in oana ouiya fohkfok lun mutanfahl su LEUM GOD El luselosla liki facl sac ke pacl mwet lal ah akola in utyak nu we.

And he did evil in the sight of the LORD by following the abominations of the nations that the LORD had driven out before the Israelites.

3 El sifilpa musaela acn in alu lun mwet pegan ma Hezekiah, papa tumal, el tuh kunausla. Ac el musaela loang in alu nu sel Baal, ac orala ma sruloala ke god mutan Asherah, ac el alu nu ke itu uh.

For he rebuilt the high places that his father Hezekiah had torn down, and he raised up altars for the Baals and made Asherah poles. And he worshiped and served all the host of heaven.

4 El musaela loang lun mwet pegan in Tempul, acn se na ma LEUM GOD El fahk mu mwet uh in alu nu sel we nwe tok.

Manasseh also built altars in the house of the LORD, of which the LORD had said, “My Name will remain in Jerusalem forever.”

5 Ke nien tukeni luo inkul lun Tempul, el musaela loang in alu nu ke itu uh.

In both courtyards of the house of the LORD, he built altars to all the host of heaven.

6 El kisakunla wen natul in mwe kisa firir ke Infahlfal Hinnom. Oayapa el sramsram nu sin ngun fohkfok ac orek mwenmen in kiapu mwet. El som nu yurin mwet inutnut, mwet susfa, ac mwet sramsram nu sin mwet misa. El oru ma koluk na yohk lain LEUM GOD, ac akkasrkusrakyal.

He sacrificed his sons in the fire in the Valley of Hinnom. He practiced sorcery, divination, and witchcraft, and consulted mediums and spiritists. He did great evil in the sight of the LORD, provoking Him to anger.

7 El likiya sie ma sruloala in Tempul, acn se ma LEUM GOD El tuh fahk kac nu sel David ac nu sel Solomon wen natul, mu, “In acn se inge Jerusalem, ac in Tempul se inge, pa acn se ma nga sulela inmasrlon acn nukewa lun sruf singoul luo in Israel, tuh in pa acn se mwet uh in alu nu sik we.

Manasseh even took the carved image he had made and set it up in the house of God, of which God had said to David and his son Solomon, “In this temple and in Jerusalem, which I have chosen out of all the tribes of Israel, I will establish My Name forever.

8 Ac mwet Israel fin akos ma nukewa nga sapkin nu selos, ac karinganang Ma Sap nukewa su Moses, mwet kulansap luk, el sang nu selos, na nga ac fah tia lela in lisyukla elos liki facl se su nga sang nu sin papa matu tumalos.”

I will never again cause the feet of the Israelites to leave the land that I assigned to your fathers, if only they are careful to do all that I have commanded them through Moses—all the laws, statutes, and judgments.”

9 Manasseh el kolla mwet Judah in oru ma koluk yohk liki ma koluk lun mutunfacl saya ma LEUM GOD El tuh lusla liki acn ma mwet lal elos fahsryak nu we.

So Manasseh led the people of Judah and Jerusalem astray, so that they did greater evil than the nations that the LORD had destroyed before the Israelites.

10 LEUM GOD El sensenkakunul Manasseh ac mwet lal, a elos tia lungse lohng.

And the LORD spoke to Manasseh and his people, but they did not listen.

11 Ouinge LEUM GOD El lela mwet kol fulat lun mwet mweun lun Assyria in utyak ac mweuni acn Judah. Elos sruokilya Manasseh, sang ka uh srumasrla manol ac kaprilya ac usalla nu Babylon.

So the LORD brought against them the military commanders of the king of Assyria, who captured Manasseh, put a hook in his nose, bound him with bronze shackles, and took him to Babylon.

12 Keok lulap lal akpusiselyal, ac el forla nu sin LEUM GOD lal, ac kwafe tuh Elan kasrel.

And in his distress, Manasseh sought the favor of the LORD his God and earnestly humbled himself before the God of his fathers.

13 Ac God El insese nu ke mwe siyuk lal, ac lela tuh elan folokla nu Jerusalem ac sifilpa leumi mwet uh. Ma inge akkalemye nu sel Manasseh lah LEUM GOD El God.

And when he prayed to Him, the LORD received his plea and heard his petition; so He brought him back to Jerusalem and to his kingdom. Then Manasseh knew that the LORD is God.

14 Tukun ma inge Manasseh el sifilpa laesla fulatan pot se lik ma oan kutulap in Siti sel David, mutawauk ke sie acn ke infahlfal se apkuran nu ke Unon in Kof Gihon, ac fahla nu epang nu ke Mutunpot Ik, ke ipin acn se ke siti uh ma pangpang Ophel. In kais sie siti in acn Judah ma oasr pot ku we, el supwala un mwet mweun in muta we wi captain lalos.

After this, Manasseh rebuilt the outer wall of the City of David from west of Gihon in the valley to the entrance of the Fish Gate, and he brought it around the hill of Ophel and heightened it considerably. He also stationed military commanders in all the fortified cities of Judah.

15 El srakla god lun mutunfacl saya liki Tempul, ac ma sruloala se ma el tuh filiya we, oayapa loang lun mwet pegan ma oan ke inging soko Tempul ah oan we, ac in kutu pacna acn saya in acn Jerusalem. El usla ma inge nukewa nu likin siti uh, ac sisla we.

He removed the foreign gods and the idol from the house of the LORD, along with all the altars he had built on the temple mount and in Jerusalem, and he dumped them outside the city.

16 El oayapa akwoyela loang se ma mwet uh alu nu sin LEUM GOD we, ac el kisakin mwe kisa in akinsewowo ac mwe kisa in sang kulo fac. El sapkin nu sin mwet Judah nukewa in alu nu sin LEUM GOD lun Israel.

Then he restored the altar of the LORD and sacrificed peace offerings and thank offerings on it, and he told Judah to serve the LORD, the God of Israel.

17 Mwet uh finne orek kisa in kutu pac acn in alu saya, tuh kisa lalos uh ma na nu sin LEUM GOD mukena.

Nevertheless, the people still sacrificed at the high places, but only to the LORD their God.

18 Ma nukewa saya ma Manasseh el oru, wi pac pre lal nu sin LEUM GOD ac kas lun mwet palu su kaskas nu sel Inen LEUM GOD lun Israel, ma inge nukewa simla in [Sramsram Matu Ke Tokosra Lun Israel].

As for the rest of the acts of Manasseh, along with his prayer to his God and the words of the seers who spoke to him in the name of the LORD, the God of Israel, they are indeed written in the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel.

19 Pre lun tokosra, ac top lun LEUM GOD nu sel, ac srumunyen ma koluk el orala meet liki el auliyak — aok, orekma koluk lal, ac acn in alu lun mwet pegan su el musaela, ac ma sruloala in luman god mutan Asherah ma el orala, ac ma sruloala saya ma el alu nu kac — simla nufon ke [Sramsram Matu Lun Mwet Palu].

His prayer and how God received his plea, as well as all his sin and unfaithfulness, and the sites where he built high places and set up Asherah poles and idols before he humbled himself, they are indeed written in the Records of the Seers.

20 Manasseh el misa ac pukpuki ke lohm sin tokosra, ac Amon wen natul, el aolul in tokosra.

And Manasseh rested with his fathers and was buried at his palace. And his son Amon reigned in his place.

21 Amon el yac longoul luo ke el tokosrala lun Judah, ac el leum in Jerusalem ke yac luo.

Amon was twenty-two years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem two years.

22 El oru ma koluk lain LEUM GOD, oana Manasseh, papa tumal ah oru, ac el alu pac nu ke ma sruloala ma papa tumal el tuh alu nu kac.

And he did evil in the sight of the LORD, as his father Manasseh had done. Amon served and sacrificed to all the idols that his father Manasseh had made,

23 Tusruktu el tia oana papa tumal ah, mweyen el tiana akpusiselyal ac forla nu sin LEUM GOD, ac ma koluk lal uh yohk liki na papa tumal ah.

but he did not humble himself before the LORD as his father Manasseh had done; instead, Amon increased his guilt.

24 Mwet pwapa lal Amon elos orek pwapa koluk lainul, ac unilya in lohm sin tokosra.

Then the servants of Amon conspired against him and killed him in his palace.

25 Ac mwet Judah elos uniya mwet ma tuh unilya Amon, ac srakulak Josiah, wen natul, in tokosra.

But the people of the land killed all those who had conspired against King Amon, and they made his son Josiah king in his place.
