< 2 Bassekabaka 14 >
1 Mu mwaka ogwokubiri ogw’obufuzi bwa Yowaasi mutabani wa Yowakazi kabaka wa Isirayiri, Amaziya mutabani wa Yowaasi ssekabaka wa Yuda n’alya obwakabaka.
In the second year of Joash son of Jehoahaz, king of Israel, Amaziah son of Joash, king of Judah, has reigned;
2 Yali aweza emyaka amakumi abiri mu etaano weyatandikira okufuga, era n’afugira emyaka amakumi abiri mu mwenda mu Yerusaalemi. Nnyina erinnya lye ye yali Yekoyadiini ow’e Yerusaalemi.
he was a son of twenty-five years in his reigning, and he has reigned twenty-nine years in Jerusalem, and the name of his mother [is] Jehoaddan of Jerusalem,
3 N’akola ebirungi mu maaso ga Mukama, newaakubadde nga tebyenkana bya jjajjaawe Dawudi bye yakola. Mu buli nsonga yonna yagobereranga ekyokulabirako kya Yowaasi kitaawe.
and he does that which [is] right in the eyes of YHWH, only not like his father David; he has done according to all that his father Joash did,
4 Kyokka beeyongeranga okuweerayo ssaddaaka n’okwoterezanga obubaane ku bifo ebigulumivu kubanga byali tebiggyiddwawo.
only, the high places have not been removed—the people are still sacrificing and making incense in high places.
5 Bwe yalaba ng’obwakabaka bunywezeddwa mu buyinza bwe, n’atta abakungu abaatemula kabaka kitaawe.
And it comes to pass, when the kingdom has been strong in his hand, that he strikes his servants, those striking his father the king,
6 Wabula teyatta batabani baabwe kubanga mu byawandiikibwa mu Kitabo eky’Amateeka ga Musa, Mukama yalagira nti, “Abazadde tebattibwenga ku lw’abaana, so n’abaana tebattibwenga ku lw’abazadde baabwe; buli muntu anaafanga olw’ebibi bye ye.”
and the sons of those striking [him] he has not put to death, as it is written in the Scroll of the Law of Moses that YHWH commanded, saying, “Fathers are not put to death for sons, and sons are not put to death for fathers, but each is put to death for his own sin.”
7 Yawangula ab’e Edomu mu Kiwonvu eky’Omunnyo, era n’atta omutwalo gumu ku bo, n’okuwamba n’awamba Seera mu lutalo, n’akituuma Yokuseeri, era kye kikyayitibwa ne ku lunaku lwa leero.
He has struck ten thousand of Edom in the Valley of Salt, and seized Selah in war, and [one] calls its name Joktheel to this day,
8 Awo mu biro ebyo Amaziya n’atumira Yekoyaasi mutabani wa Yekoyakaazi, muzzukulu wa Yeeku, kabaka wa Isirayiri, obubaka ng’amusosonkereza nti, “Jjangu tulabagane amaaso n’amaaso.”
then Amaziah has sent messengers to Jehoash son of Jehoahaz, son of Jehu, king of Israel, saying, “Come, we look one another in the face.”
9 Naye Yekoyaasi kabaka wa Isirayiri n’addamu Amaziya kabaka wa Yuda nti, “Omwennyango mu Lebanooni gw’aweereza obubaka eri omuvule mu Lebanooni nga gugamba nti, ‘Waayo muwala wo afumbirwe mutabani wange.’ Naye ensolo enkambwe eya Lebanooni bwe yali ng’eyitawo n’erinnyirira omwennyango.
And Jehoash king of Israel sends to Amaziah king of Judah, saying, “The thorn that [is] in Lebanon has sent to the cedar that [is] in Lebanon, saying, Give your daughter to my son for a wife; and a beast of the field that [is] in Lebanon passes by, and treads down the thorn.
10 Kaakano wegulumizza kubanga owangudde Edomu. Wenyumirize mu buwanguzi bwo ewuwo. Lwaki oyagala okweleetera emitawaana, n’okugwa kwo era n’okwa Yuda?”
You have certainly struck Edom, and your heart has lifted you up; be honored, and abide in your house; and why do you stir yourself up in evil, that you have fallen, you and Judah with you?”
11 Naye Amaziya teyawuliriza, era ekyavaamu Yekoyaasi kabaka wa Isirayiri n’amulumba. Ne balabagana amaaso n’amaaso mu lutalo e Besusemesi ekya Yuda.
And Amaziah has not listened, and Jehoash king of Israel goes up, and they look one another in the face, he and Amaziah king of Judah, in Beth-Shemesh, that [is] Judah’s,
12 Yuda n’awangulibwa Isirayiri, buli musajja n’addukira ewuwe.
and Judah is struck before Israel, and they each flee to his tent.
13 Awo Yekoyaasi kabaka wa Isirayiri n’awambira Amaziya kabaka wa Yuda mutabani wa Yekoyaasi muzzukulu wa Akaziya e Besusemesi; Yekoyaasi ne yeeyongerayo e Yerusaalemi, n’amenyaamenya bbugwe wa Yerusaalemi, obuwanvu mita kikumi mu kinaana, okuva ku wankaaki wa Efulayimu okutuuka ku wankaaki ow’oku Nsonda.
And Jehoash king of Israel caught Amaziah king of Judah, son of Jehoash, son of Ahaziah, in Beth-Shemesh, and they come to Jerusalem, and he bursts through the wall of Jerusalem, at the Gate of Ephraim to the Corner Gate, four hundred cubits,
14 N’atwala ezaabu n’effeeza yonna, n’ebikozesebwa byonna ebyali mu yeekaalu ya Mukama, n’eby’obugagga ebyali mu lubiri lwa kabaka, era n’abantu n’abatwala nga basibe, n’addayo e Samaliya.
and has taken all the gold and the silver, and all the vessels that are found in the house of YHWH, and in the treasures of the house of the king, and the sons of the pledges, and turns back to Samaria.
15 Ebyafaayo ebirala byonna ebyaliwo mu mirembe gya Yekoyaasi, ne bye yakola n’ebyamagero bye, ne bwe yatabaala Amaziya kabaka wa Yuda, tebyawandiikibwa mu kitabo eky’ebyomumirembe gya bassekabaka ba Isirayiri?
And the rest of the matters of Jehoash that he did, and his might, and how he fought with Amaziah king of Judah, are they not written on the scroll of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel?
16 Yekoyaasi n’afa n’aziikibwa mu Samaliya mu masiro ga bakabaka ba Isirayiri. Mutabani we Yerobowaamu n’amusikira okuba kabaka.
And Jehoash lies with his fathers, and is buried in Samaria with the kings of Israel, and his son Jeroboam reigns in his stead.
17 Awo Amaziya mutabani wa Yowaasi n’awangaala emyaka kkumi n’ettaano emirala oluvannyuma lw’okufa kwa Yekoyaasi mutabani wa Yekoyakaazi kabaka wa Isirayiri.
And Amaziah son of Joash, king of Judah, lives after the death of Jehoash son of Jehoahaz, king of Israel, fifteen years,
18 Ebyafaayo ebirala eby’omulembe gwa Amaziya, tebyawandiikibwa mu kitabo eky’ebyomumirembe gya bassekabaka ba Yuda?
and the rest of the matters of Amaziah, are they not written on the scroll of the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah?
19 Ne bamusalira olukwe olw’okumuttira mu Yerusaalemi, n’addukira e Lakisi, naye ne bamuwerekereza abasajja era ne bamuttira e Lakisi.
And they make a conspiracy against him in Jerusalem, and he flees to Lachish, and they send after him to Lachish, and put him to death there,
20 Ne bakomyawo omulambo gwe ku mbalaasi, era n’aziikibwa ku biggya bya bajjajjaabe mu Yerusaalemi, mu kibuga kya Dawudi.
and lift him up on the horses, and he is buried in Jerusalem with his fathers in the City of David.
21 Awo eggwanga lyonna erya Yuda, ne bafuula Azaliya ow’emyaka ekkumi n’omukaaga kabaka, ng’asikira kitaawe Amaziya.
And all the people of Judah take Azariah, and he [is] a son of sixteen years, and cause him to reign instead of his father Amaziah;
22 Ye yaddaabiriza Erasi era n’azza Yuda obuggya, nga Amaziya amaze okufa.
he has built Elath, and brings it back to Judah, after the lying of the king with his fathers.
23 Mu mwaka ogw’ekkumi n’ettaano ogw’obufuzi bwa Amaziya mutabani wa Yowaasi kabaka wa Yuda, Yerobowaamu II mutabani wa Yowaasi ssekabaka wa Isirayiri n’afuuka kabaka mu Samaliya, era n’afugira emyaka amakumi ana mu gumu.
In the fifteenth year of Amaziah son of Joash, king of Judah, Jeroboam son of Joash, king of Israel, has reigned in Samaria, forty-one years,
24 N’akola ebibi mu maaso ga Mukama, n’atakyuka okuva mu bibi ebya Yerobowaamu mutabani wa Nebati bye yayonoonyesa Isirayiri.
and he does evil in the eyes of YHWH; he has not turned aside from all the sins of Jeroboam son of Nebat that he caused Israel to sin.
25 Yatuukiriza ekigambo kya Mukama, Katonda wa Isirayiri kye yayogerera mu muddu we Yona mutabani wa Amitayi nnabbi ow’e Gasukeferi, n’azzaawo ensalo ya Isirayiri okuva ku mulyango gwa Kamasi okutuuka ku Nnyanja ey’Omunnyo.
He has brought back the border of Israel, from the entering in of Hamath to the sea of the desert, according to the word of YHWH, God of Israel, that He spoke by the hand of His servant Jonah son of Amittai the prophet, who [is] of Gath-Hepher,
26 Mukama yalaba okubonaabona kwa buli omu mu Isirayiri, omuddu n’atali muddu, nga tewali ayinza ku babeera.
for YHWH has seen the very bitter affliction of Israel, and there is none restrained, and there is none left, and there is no helper for Israel;
27 Olw’okubanga Mukama yali tagambye nti alisaanyaawo erinnya lya Isirayiri wansi w’eggulu, n’atuma Yerobowaamu II mutabani wa Yowaasi okubalokola.
and YHWH has not spoken to blot out the name of Israel from under the heavens, and saves them by the hand of Jeroboam son of Joash.
28 Ebyafaayo ebirala ebyabaawo mu mirembe gya Yerobowaamu II, ne byonna bye yakola, ne bwe yalwana entalo n’obuzira, n’engeri gye yakomezaawo Isirayiri Ddamasiko ne Kamasi ebyali ebya Yuda, tebyawandiikibwa mu kitabo eky’ebyomumirembe gya bassekabaka ba Isirayiri?
And the rest of the matters of Jeroboam, and all that he did, and his might with which he fought, and with which he brought back Damascus, and Hamath of Judah, into Israel, are they not written on the scroll of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel?
29 Yerobowaamu ne yeebakira wamu ne bajjajjaabe, bassekabaka ba Isirayiri, Zekkaliya mutabani we n’amusikira okuba kabaka.
And Jeroboam lies with his fathers, with the kings of Israel, and his son Zechariah reigns in his stead.
