< Luo Tokosra 17 >

1 In yac se aksingoul luo ke pacl Tokosra Ahaz el leum lun Judah, Hoshea wen natul Elah, el tokosrala lun Israel, ac el leum in Samaria ke yac eu.
In the twelfth year of Ahaz king of Judah began Hoshea the son of Elah to reign in Samaria over Israel nine years.
2 El oru ma koluk lain LEUM GOD, tuh tia arulana yohk oana tokosra su leumi acn Israel meet lukel.
And he did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD, but not as the kings of Israel that were before him.
3 Tokosra Fulat Shalmaneser lun Assyria el orek mweun lainul, na Hoshea el srasrapo nu sel Shalmaneser ac moli takma nu sel ke yac nukewa.
Against him came up Shalmaneser king of Assyria; and Hoshea became his servant, and gave him presents.
4 Tuh ke sie yac ah Hoshea el supwala mwet nu yorol Tokosra So lun Egypt in siyuk sel elan kasrel, ac el tia moli takma ke yac sac nu sin Assyria. Ke Shalmaneser el lohngak ma inge, el sap in sruhu Hoshea ac sisiyang el nu in presin.
And the king of Assyria found conspiracy in Hoshea: for he had sent messengers to So king of Egypt, and brought no present to the king of Assyria, as he had done year by year: therefore the king of Assyria shut him up, and bound him in prison.
5 Na Shalmaneser el utyak nu fin acn Israel ac kuhlasla acn Samaria. In yac se aktolu ke kuhlusyuki acn we —
Then the king of Assyria came up throughout all the land, and went up to Samaria, and besieged it three years.
6 su pa ke yac akeu ma Hoshea el tokosra — Tokosra Fulat lun acn Assyria el sruokya acn Samaria, ac usla mwet Israel nu Assyria in mwet sruoh. El likiya kutu selos in siti Halah, ac kutu in muta yen apkuran nu ke Infacl Habor in acn Gozan, ac kutu ke siti in acn Media.
In the ninth year of Hoshea the king of Assyria took Samaria, and carried Israel away into Assyria, and placed them in Halah and in Habor by the river of Gozan, and in the cities of the Medes.
7 Acn Samaria ikori mweyen mwet Israel elos oru ma koluk lain LEUM GOD lalos, su tuh molelosla liki tokosra lun Egypt, ac kololosla liki acn Egypt. Elos alu nu sin god saya,
For so it was, that the children of Israel had sinned against the LORD their God, which had brought them up out of the land of Egypt, from under the hand of Pharaoh king of Egypt, and had feared other gods,
8 ac fahsr tukun ouiya lun mutunfacl su LEUM GOD El tuh lusla liki acn inge ke mwet lal elos utyak nu we, ac elos moulkin facsin su orekmakinyuk sin tokosra lun Israel.
And walked in the statutes of the heathen, whom the LORD cast out from before the children of Israel, and of the kings of Israel, which they had made.
9 Mwet Israel elos oru ma su LEUM GOD lalos El tia insese nu kac. Elos musaela nien alu pus lun mwet pegan in siti lalos nukewa, acn srik nwe ke siti lulap.
And the children of Israel did secretly those things that were not right against the LORD their God, and they built them high places in all their cities, from the tower of the watchmen to the fenced city.
10 Elos tulokunak sru eot ac ma sruloala ke god mutan Asherah fin inging nukewa ac ye sak lul nukewa,
And they set them up images and groves in every high hill, and under every green tree:
11 ac elos akosak mwe keng fin loang nukewa lun mwet pegan, ac etai ouiya lun mutanfahl su LEUM GOD El tuh lusla liki acn inge. Elos akkasrkusrakye LEUM GOD ke orekma koluk lalos nukewa,
And there they burnt incense in all the high places, as did the heathen whom the LORD carried away before them; and worked wicked things to provoke the LORD to anger:
12 ac elos tia akos ma LEUM GOD El sapkin nu selos, in tia alu nu ke ma sruloala.
For they served idols, whereof the LORD had said to them, You shall not do this thing.
13 LEUM GOD El tuh supwala mwet utuk kas ac mwet palu lal in sensenkakin mwet Israel ac mwet Judah, ac fahk nu selos, “Sisla ouiya koluk lowos, ac akos ma nga sapkin su oan in Ma Sap ma nga sang nu sin mwet matu lowos somla, ac su nga sot nu suwos ke pusren mwet palu, mwet kulansap luk.”
Yet the LORD testified against Israel, and against Judah, by all the prophets, and by all the seers, saying, Turn you from your evil ways, and keep my commandments and my statutes, according to all the law which I commanded your fathers, and which I sent to you by my servants the prophets.
14 Tuh elos tia akos. Elos likkeke oana mwet matu lalos somla su tia lulalfongi ke LEUM GOD lalos.
Notwithstanding they would not hear, but hardened their necks, like to the neck of their fathers, that did not believe in the LORD their God.
15 Elos tia lungse akos kas in luti lal nu selos, elos tia karinganang wuleang ma El orala yurin mwet matu somla lalos, ac elos pilesru kas in sensenkakin lal. Elos alu nu ke ma sruoala lusrongten, pwanang elos ekla pac mwet lusrongten. Elos oru ouiya lun mutanfahl ma raunelosla, ac seakos ma sap lun LEUM GOD su fahk mu elos in tia etawelos.
And they rejected his statutes, and his covenant that he made with their fathers, and his testimonies which he testified against them; and they followed vanity, and became vain, and went after the heathen that were round about them, concerning whom the LORD had charged them, that they should not do like them.
16 Elos kunausla nufon ma sap lun LEUM GOD lalos, ac elos orala ma sruloala osra luo ke luman cow mukul tuh elos in alu nu kac. Elos oayapa orala sie ma sruloala ke god mutan Asherah. Elos alu nu ke itu uh, ac kulansap nu sin god Baal.
And they left all the commandments of the LORD their God, and made them molten images, even two calves, and made a grove, and worshipped all the host of heaven, and served Baal.
17 Elos sang wen ac acn natulos in mwe kisa firir nu sin god lun mwet pegan, ac elos suk kasru sin mwet sramsram nu sin inut ac mwet susfa, ac elos sang insialos nufon in oru ma sesuwos ye mutun LEUM GOD, ac arulana akkasrkusrakyal.
And they caused their sons and their daughters to pass through the fire, and used divination and enchantments, and sold themselves to do evil in the sight of the LORD, to provoke him to anger.
18 Ke ma inge LEUM GOD El kasrkusrak sin mwet Israel ac luselosla liki ye mutal, ac tokosrai lun Judah mukena lula.
Therefore the LORD was very angry with Israel, and removed them out of his sight: there was none left but the tribe of Judah only.
19 Tusruktu finne mwet Judah, elos tia pac akos ma sap lun LEUM GOD lalos, ac elos etai facsin ma mwet Israel elos eisla saya.
Also Judah kept not the commandments of the LORD their God, but walked in the statutes of Israel which they made.
20 LEUM GOD El ngetla liki mwet nukewa lun Israel ac akkeokyalos, ac eisalosyang nu inpoun mwet lokoalok sulallal, nwe ke El luselosla liki ye mutal.
And the LORD rejected all the seed of Israel, and afflicted them, and delivered them into the hand of spoilers, until he had cast them out of his sight.
21 Tukun LEUM GOD El srela mwet Israel liki mwet Judah, mwet Israel elos sraklalak Jeroboam wen natul Nebat in tokosra lalos. Jeroboam el oru tuh elos in sisla LEUM GOD, ac el kololosla in oru ma koluk na lulap.
For he rent Israel from the house of David; and they made Jeroboam the son of Nebat king: and Jeroboam drove Israel from following the LORD, and made them sin a great sin.
22 Elos fahsr tokol Jeroboam ac nuna oru na kain in ma koluk nukewa ma el tuh oru,
For the children of Israel walked in all the sins of Jeroboam which he did; they departed not from them;
23 nwe ke na LEUM GOD El luselosla liki ye mutal, oana ke El tuh sensenkakinulos sin mwet kulansap lal, mwet palu, mu El ac oru. Ouinge mwet Israel utukla mwet sruoh nu Assyria, yen elos srakna oasr we.
Until the LORD removed Israel out of his sight, as he had said by all his servants the prophets. So was Israel carried away out of their own land to Assyria to this day.
24 Tokosra Fulat lun Assyria el use mwet in siti Babylon, Cuth, Ivvah, Hamath, ac Sepharvaim, ac oakelosi in siti lun acn Samaria, in aolla mwet Israel su som nu in sruoh. Elos utyak nu in siti inge ac oakwuki we.
And the king of Assyria brought men from Babylon, and from Cuthah, and from Ava, and from Hamath, and from Sepharvaim, and placed them in the cities of Samaria instead of the children of Israel: and they possessed Samaria, and dwelled in the cities thereof.
25 Ke elos tufahna oakwuki in acn inge elos tia alu nu sin LEUM GOD, ouinge El supwala lion pus ac uniya kutu selos.
And so it was at the beginning of their dwelling there, that they feared not the LORD: therefore the LORD sent lions among them, which slew some of them.
26 Fwackyang nu sin Tokosra Fulat lun Assyria lah mwet el likiya in siti lun acn Samaria elos tia etu ma sap lun god lun facl sac, na pa god sac tuh supwala lion ac onelosi.
Why they spoke to the king of Assyria, saying, The nations which you have removed, and placed in the cities of Samaria, know not the manner of the God of the land: therefore he has sent lions among them, and, behold, they slay them, because they know not the manner of the God of the land.
27 Ke ma inge Tokosra Fulat el sapkin: “Supwala sie sin mwet tol ma kut tuh use liki acn we, elan folokla muta we ac luti mwet uh ke ma sap lun god lun facl sac.”
Then the king of Assyria commanded, saying, Carry thither one of the priests whom you brought from there; and let them go and dwell there, and let him teach them the manner of the God of the land.
28 Ouinge sie mwet tol lun Israel su utuku liki acn Samaria el som ac muta Bethel, yen el luti mwet uh in etu ouiyen alu nu sin LEUM GOD.
Then one of the priests whom they had carried away from Samaria came and dwelled in Bethel, and taught them how they should fear the LORD.
29 Tusruktu mwet su muta Samaria inge elos srakna oru ma sruloala lalos, ac likiya in nien alu su mwet Israel tuh musaela. Kais sie u inge orala ma sruloala in siti ma elos muta we:
However, every nation made gods of their own, and put them in the houses of the high places which the Samaritans had made, every nation in their cities wherein they dwelled.
30 mwet Babylon elos orala ma sruloala ke god Succoth Benoth, ac mwet Cuth orala ma sruloala ke Nergal, ac mwet Hamath orala ma sruloala ke Ashima,
And the men of Babylon made Succothbenoth, and the men of Cuth made Nergal, and the men of Hamath made Ashima,
31 ac mwet Ivvah orala ma sruloala ke Nibhaz ac Tartak, ac mwet Sepharvaim elos orek kisa firir ke tulik natulos nu sin god Adrammelech ac Anammelech.
And the Avites made Nibhaz and Tartak, and the Sepharvites burnt their children in fire to Adrammelech and Anammelech, the gods of Sepharvaim.
32 Mwet inge elos oayapa alu nu sin LEUM GOD, ac elos sulela inmasrlon mwet lalos oana sie kain in mwet tuh in mwet tol lalos ke nien alu lun mwet pegan, ac in orek kisa kaclos we.
So they feared the LORD, and made to themselves of the lowest of them priests of the high places, which sacrificed for them in the houses of the high places.
33 Ouinge elos alu nu sin LEUM GOD, ac elos oayapa alu nu sin god lalos, fal nu ke facsin lun kais sie facl elos tuku we me.
They feared the LORD, and served their own gods, after the manner of the nations whom they carried away from there.
34 Elos srakna oru facsin matu lalos nwe in len inge. Elos tia alu nu sin LEUM GOD, ac elos tia pac akos ma sap ac oakwuk su El tuh sang nu sin fwil natul Jacob, mwet se El sang inel Israel.
To this day they do after the former manners: they fear not the LORD, neither do they after their statutes, or after their ordinances, or after the law and commandment which the LORD commanded the children of Jacob, whom he named Israel;
35 LEUM GOD El tuh orala sie wulela yorolos, ac sapkin nu selos: “Nik kowos alu nu ke god saya. Nikmet epasr nu selos, ku kulansapwalos, ku orek kisa nu selos.
With whom the LORD had made a covenant, and charged them, saying, You shall not fear other gods, nor bow yourselves to them, nor serve them, nor sacrifice to them:
36 Kowos in akosyu, LEUM GOD, su uskowosme liki acn Egypt ke ku lulap ac po kulana. Kowos in epasr nu sik ac orek kisa nu sik.
But the LORD, who brought you up out of the land of Egypt with great power and a stretched out arm, him shall you fear, and him shall you worship, and to him shall you do sacrifice.
37 In pacl nukewa, kowos in akos ma sap ac oakwuk luk ma nga simusla nu suwos. Nik kowos akos kutena god sayuk,
And the statutes, and the ordinances, and the law, and the commandment, which he wrote for you, you shall observe to do for ever more; and you shall not fear other gods.
38 ac nik kowos mulkunla wuleang su nga tuh orala yuruwos.
And the covenant that I have made with you you shall not forget; neither shall you fear other gods.
39 Kowos in akosyu, LEUM GOD lowos, ac nga fah molikowosla liki mwet lokoalok lowos.”
But the LORD your God you shall fear; and he shall deliver you out of the hand of all your enemies.
40 Tusruktu mwet inge tiana porongo ma El fahk, a elos sruokyana facsin matu lalos.
However, they did not listen, but they did after their former manner.
41 Ouinge mwet ingo elos alu nu sin LEUM GOD, tusruktu elos alu pacna nu ke ma sruloala lalos, ac fwilin tulik natulos elos srak pacna oru oana mwet matu lalos su somla nwe in pacl inge.
So these nations feared the LORD, and served their graven images, both their children, and their children’s children: as did their fathers, so do they to this day.
