2 Bassekabaka 15

1 Mu mwaka ogw’amakumi abiri mu omusanvu ogw’obufuzi bwa Yerobowaamu kabaka wa Isirayiri, Azaliya mutabani wa ssekabaka Amaziya n’alya obwakabaka bwa Yuda.

In the twenty and seventh year of Jerobo'am the king of Israel became 'Azaryah, the son of Amazyah king of Judah, king.

2 Yalina emyaka kkumi na mukaaga bwe yatandika okufuga, n’afugira emyaka amakumi ataano mu ebiri mu Yerusaalemi. Erinnya lya nnyina ye yali Yekoliya ow’e Yerusaalemi.

Sixteen years old was he when he became king, and two and fifty years did he reign in Jerusalem. And his mother's name was Yecholyahu of Jerusalem.

3 Yakola ebyali ebirungi mu maaso ga Mukama, nga kitaawe Amaziya bwe yali akoze.

And he did what is right in the eyes of the Lord, in accordance with all that Amazyahu his father had done;

4 Wabula ebifo ebigulumivu gye baweeranga ssaddaaka tebyaggibwawo, era abantu beeyongeranga okuweerangayo ssaddaaka n’okwoterezangayo obubaane.

Nevertheless the high-places were not removed: as yet the people sacrificed and burnt incense on the high-places.

5 Awo Mukama n’aleetera kabaka obulwadde n’agengewala, ennaku ze zonna okutuusa bwe yafa, era n’aggyibwako emirimu egy’obuvunaanyizibwa n’ateekebwa mu nnyumba ey’enjawulo. Azaliya n’asigira Yosamu mutabani we okuvunaanyizibwanga ensonga zonna ez’omu lubiri, era n’afuganga n’abantu ab’omu nsi.

And the Lord afflicted the king with leprosy, and he was a leper unto the day of his death, and he dwelt in the leper-house. And Jotham the king's son was over the house, [and] judged the people of the land.

6 Ebyafaayo ebirala byonna ebyabaawo mu mirembe gya Azaliya, ne bye yakola byonna, tebyawandiikibwa mu kitabo eky’ebyomumirembe gya bassekabaka ba Yuda?

And the rest of the acts of 'Azaryahu, and all that he did, behold, they are written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah.

7 Awo Azaliya n’afa, n’aziikibwa ku biggya bya bajjajjaabe mu kibuga kya Dawudi, Yosamu mutabani we n’amusikira okuba kabaka.

And 'Azaryah slept with his fathers; and they buried him with his fathers in the city of David: and Jotham his son became king in his stead.

8 Mu mwaka ogw’amakumi asatu mu omunaana ogw’obufuzi bwa Azaliya kabaka wa Yuda, Zekkaliya mutabani wa Yerobowaamu n’alya obwakabaka bwa Isirayiri mu Samaliya, n’afugira emyezi mukaaga.

In the thirty and eighth year of 'Azaryahu the king of Judah became Zechariah the son of Jerobo'am king over Israel in Samaria [for] six months.

9 N’akola ebibi mu maaso ga Mukama, nga bajjajjaabe bwe baakola, n’atakyuka okuva mu bibi bya Yerobowaamu mutabani wa Nebati bye yayonoonyesa Isirayiri.

And he did what is evil in the eyes of the Lord, as his fathers had done: he departed not from the sins of Jerobo'am the son of Nebat, who induced Israel to sin.

10 Awo Sallumu mutabani wa Yabesi, n’asala olukwe n’amuttira mu lujjudde lw’abantu, era n’alya obwakabaka.

And Shallum the son of Yabesh conspired against him, and smote him before the people, and put him to death, and became king in his stead.

11 Ebyafaayo ebirala ebyabaawo mu mirembe gya Zekkaliya, byawandiikibwa mu kitabo eky’ebyomumirembe gya bassekabaka ba Isirayiri.

And the rest of the acts of Zechariah, behold, they are written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel.

12 Awo ekigambo Mukama kye yagamba Yeeku ne kituukirira, era kyali kigamba nti, “Bazzukulu bo balirya obwakabaka bwa Isirayiri okutuusa ku muzzukulu owookuna.”

This was the word of the Lord which he spoke unto Jehu, saying, Sons of the fourth generation shall sit after thee on the throne of Israel. And so it came to pass.

13 Awo Sallumu mutabani wa Yabesi n’atandika okufuga mu mwaka ogw’amakumi asatu mu mwenda ogw’obufuzi bwa Uzziya kabaka wa Yuda, era n’afugira omwezi gumu mu Samaliya.

Shallum the son of Yabesh became king in the nine and thirtieth year of 'Uzziyah the king of Judah; and he reigned for the space of one month in Samaria.

14 Menakemu mutabani wa Gaadi n’ava e Tiruza n’agenda okulumba Sallumu mutabani wa Yabesi e Samaliya, era n’amutta. Ye n’afuuka kabaka mu kifo kye.

Then went up Menachem the son of Gadi from Thirzah, and came to Samaria, and smote Shallum the son of Yabesh in Samaria, and put him to death, and became king in his stead.

15 Ebyafaayo ebirala ebyabaawo mu mirembe gya Sallumu, n’olukwe lwe yasala, byawandiikibwa mu kitabo eky’ebyomumirembe gya bassekabaka ba Isirayiri.

And the rest of the acts of Shallum, and his conspiracy which he made, behold, they are written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel.

16 Mu kiseera ekyo Menakemu n’alumba Tifusa n’azikiriza buli muntu eyalimu, na buli kintu ekyali kikirinaanye ng’atandikira ku nsalo yaakyo ne Tiruza, kubanga tebaamwaniriza. Abakyala abaali embuto nabo n’abatta ng’ababaaga.

At that time did Menachem smite Thiphsach, and all that was therein, and its territory from Thirzah; because they opened not to him, he smote it; and all the pregnant women therein he ripped up.

17 Mu mwaka ogw’amakumi asatu mu mwenda ogw’obufuzi bwa Azaliya kabaka wa Yuda, Menakemu mutabani wa Gaadi n’alya obwakabaka bwa Isirayiri, era n’afugira emyaka kkumi mu Samaliya.

In the nine and thirtieth year of 'Azaryah the king of Judah became Menachem the son of Gadi king over Israel, [for] ten years, in Samaria.

18 Yakola ebibi mu maaso ga Mukama, era ebbanga lyonna we yabeerera kabaka, n’atakyuka kuleka bibi bya Yerobowaamu mutabani wa Nebati bye yayonoonyesa Isirayiri.

And he did what is evil in the eyes of the Lord: he departed not from the sins of Jerobo'am the son of Nebat, who induced Israel to sin, all his days.

19 Awo Puli kabaka w’e Bwasuli n’alumba Isirayiri, naye Menakemu n’amusuubiza okumuwa ttani amakumi asatu mu nnya eza ffeeza ng’amusaba okumuwanirira n’okumunyweza ku ntebe ey’obwakabaka.

[Then] came Pul the king of Assyria against the land: and Menachem gave Pul a thousand talents of silver, that his hand might be with him to strengthen the kingdom in his hand.

20 Menakemu n’asoloozanga ensimbi ku Bayisirayiri, buli musajja omugagga ng’awaayo gulaamu desimoolo mukaaga eza ffeeza, okuwa kabaka w’e Bwasuli. Awo kabaka w’e Bwasuli n’abaviira mu nsi yaabwe.

And Menachem exacted the money from all Israel, from all the mighty men of the army, to give to the king of Assyria, fifty shekels of silver from every man; and the king of Assyria then returned and stayed not there in the land.

21 Ebyafaayo ebirala ebyabaawo mu mirembe gya Menakemu, ne bye yakola byonna, tebyawandiikibwa mu kitabo eky’ebyomumirembe gya bassekabaka ba Isirayiri?

And the rest of the acts of Menachem, and all that he did, behold, they are written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel.

22 Menakemu n’afa, Pekakiya mutabani we n’amusikira okuba kabaka.

And Menachem slept with his fathers; and Pekachyah his son became king in his stead.

23 Mu mwaka ogw’amakumi ataano ogw’obufuzi bwa Azaliya kabaka wa Yuda, Pekakiya mutabani wa Menakemu n’alya obwakabaka bwa Isirayiri mu Samaliya, era n’afugira emyaka ebiri.

In the fiftieth year of 'Azaryah the king of Judah became Pekachyah the son of Menachem king over Israel in Samaria, [for] two years.

24 Yakola ebibi mu maaso ga Mukama, n’atakyuka kuleka bibi bya Yerobowaamu mutabani wa Nebati bye yayonoonyesa Isirayiri.

And he did what is evil m the eyes of the Lord: he departed not from the sins of Jerobo'am the son of Nebat, who induced Israel to sin.

25 Awo omu ku baserikale be abakulu nga mukulu wa kibinja erinnya lye Peka mutabani wa Lemaliya, ne yeekobaana n’abasajja abalala amakumi ataano Abagireyaadi ne battira Pekakiya wamu ne Alugobu, ne Aliye mu kigo eky’omu lubiri e Samaliya. Peka n’atta Pekakiya, n’alya obwakabaka.

And Pekach the son of Remalyahu, an officer of his, conspired against him, and smote him in Samaria, in the fortress of the king's house, with the aid of Argob and the Aryeh, and with him were fifty men of the children of the Gil'adites: and he put him to death, and became king in his stead.

26 Ebyafaayo ebirala ebyabaawo mu mirembe gya Pekakiya, ne bye yakola byonna, byawandiikibwa mu kitabo eky’ebyomumirembe gya bassekabaka ba Isirayiri.

And the rest of the acts of Pekachyah, and all that he did, behold, they are written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel.

27 Mu mwaka ogw’amakumi ataano mu ebiri ogw’obufuzi bwa Azaliya kabaka wa Yuda, Peka mutabani wa Lemaliya n’alya obwakabaka bwa Isirayiri mu Samaliya, era n’afugira emyaka amakumi abiri.

In the fifty-second year of 'Azaryah the king of Judah became Pekach the son of Remalyahu king over Israel in Samaria, [for] twenty years.

28 Yakola ebibi bya Yerobowaamu mutabani wa Nebati bye yayonoonyesa Isirayiri.

And he did what is evil in the eyes of the Lord: he departed not from the sins of Jerobo'am the son of Nebat, who induced Israel to sin.

29 Mu biro bya Peka kabaka wa Isirayiri, Tigulasupireseri kabaka w’e Bwasuli n’alumba ebibuga: by’e Iyoni, n’e Aberubesumaaka, n’e Yanoa, n’e Kedesi, n’e Kazoli, n’e Gireyaadi n’e Ggaliraaya, n’ensi yonna eya Nafutaali, abantu baayo n’abatwala nga basibe e Bwasuli.

In the days of Pekach the king of Israel came Tiglath-pilesser the king of Assyria, and took 'Iyon, and Abel-beth, ma'achah, and Yanoach, and Kedesh, and Chazor, and Gil'ad, and Galilee, all the land of Naphtali, and led them away as exiles to Assyria.

30 Awo Koseya mutabani wa Era n’asala olukwe okutta Peka mutabani wa Lemaliya, n’amulumba era n’amutta, n’alya obwakabaka mu mwaka ogw’amakumi abiri ogw’obwakabaka bwa Yosamu mutabani wa Uzziya.

And Hoshea' the son of Elah made a conspiracy against Pekach the son of Remalyahu, and smote him, and put him to death, and became king in his stead, in the twentieth year of Jotham the son of 'Uzziyah.

31 Ebyafaayo ebirala ebyabaawo mu mirembe gya Peka, ne bye yakola byonna byawandiikibwa mu kitabo eky’ebyomumirembe gya bassekabaka ba Isirayiri.

And the rest of the acts of Pekach, and all that he did, behold, they are written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel.

In the second year of Pekach the son of Remalyahu the king of Israel became Jotham, the son of 'Uzziyah the king of Judah, king.

33 Yali wa myaka amakumi abiri mu etaano we yatandikira okufuga, era n’afugira emyaka kkumi na mukaaga mu Yerusaalemi, ne nnyina erinnya lye nga ye Yerusa muwala wa Zadooki.

Five and twenty years old was he when he became king, and sixteen years did he reign in Jerusalem. And his mother's name was Yerusha, the daughter of Zadok.

34 N’akola ebirungi mu maaso ga Mukama, nga kitaawe Uzziya bwe yakola.

And he did what is right in the eyes of the Lord: in accordance with all that 'Uzziyahu his father had done, [so] did he.

35 Naye ebifo ebigulumivu tebyaggibwawo, era abantu ne beeyongeranga okuweerangayo ssaddaaka n’okwoterezangako obubaane. Yaddaabiriza n’Omulyango ogw’ekyengulu ogwa yeekaalu ya Mukama.

Nevertheless, the high-places were not removed: as yet the people sacrificed and burnt incense on the high-places. He it was that built the upper gate of the house of the Lord.

In those days began the Lord to send against Judah Rezin the king of Syria, and Pekach the son of Remalyahu.

And Jotham slept with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers in the city of David his father: and Achaz his son became king in his stead.
