< 2 Bassekabaka 21 >
1 Manase yatandika okufuga ng’alina emyaka kkumi n’ebiri, era n’afugira emyaka amakumi ataano mu etaano mu Yerusaalemi. Nnyina ye yali Kefuziba.
Manasses [was] twelve years old when he began to reign, and he reigned fifty-five years in Jerusalem: and his mother's name [was] Apsiba.
2 N’akola ebibi mu maaso ga Mukama, ng’atambulira mu makubo amabi ag’amawanga Mukama ge yali agobye mu maaso g’Abayisirayiri.
And he did that which was evil in the eyes of the Lord, according to the abominations of the nations which the Lord cast out from before the children of Israel.
3 Yaddamu n’azimba ebifo ebigulumivu eby’okusamira, Keezeekiya kitaawe bye yali amenye: era yazimba n’ebyoto ebya Baali, n’asimba n’empagi kya Asera, nga Akabu kabaka wa Isirayiri bwe yakola, n’okusinza n’asinza eggye ery’omu ggulu.
And he built again the high places, which Ezekias his father [had] demolished; and set up an altar to Baal, and made groves as Achaab king of Israel [made them]; and worshipped all the host of heaven, and served them.
4 Yazimba n’ebyoto mu yeekaalu ya Mukama, Mukama gye yali ayogeddeko nti, “Mu Yerusaalemi mwe mulibeera Erinnya lyange.”
And he built an altar in the house of the Lord, whereas he had said, In Jerusalem I will place my name.
5 Era yazimbira eggye lyonna ery’omu ggulu ebyoto mu mpya zombi eza yeekaalu ya Mukama.
And he built an altar to all the host of heaven in the two courts of the house of the Lord.
6 N’awaayo mutabani we okuba ekyokebwa, ng’akola eby’obufumu n’eby’obulogo, ate ng’alagulwa n’abaliko emizimu, n’abalogo. N’akola ebibi bingi mu maaso ga Mukama, era n’amusunguwaza.
And he caused his sons to pass through the fire, and used divination and auspices, and made groves, and multiplied wizards, so as to do that which was evil in the sight of the Lord, to provoke him to anger.
7 Yaddira ekifaananyi ekyole ekya Asera n’akiteeka mu yeekaalu, Mukama gye yali ayogeddeko ng’agamba Dawudi ne mutabani we Sulemaani nti, “Mu Yeekaalu eno ne mu Yerusaalemi, bye nneeroboza mu bika byonna ebya Isirayiri, mwe munaabeeranga erinnya lyange emirembe gyonna.
And he set up the graven image of the grove in the house of which the Lord said to David, and to Solomon his son, In this house, and in Jerusalem which I have chosen out of all the tribes of Israel, will I even place my name for ever.
8 Siriddayo nate kujja bigere eby’Abayisirayiri mu nsi gye nawa bajjajjaabwe, bwe baneekuumanga okukola bye nabalagira byonna wamu n’amateeka omuddu wange Musa ge yabawa.”
And I will not again remove the foot of Israel from the land which I gave to their fathers, [even of those] who shall keep all that I commanded, according to all the commandments which my servant Moses commanded them.
9 Naye abantu tebaawuliriza, era Manase n’abasendasenda okukola ebibi okusinga n’ebyo amawanga Mukama ge yazikiririza mu maaso g’Abayisirayiri bye gaakola.
But they hearkened not; and Manasses led them astray to do evil in the sight of the Lord, beyond the nations whom the Lord utterly destroyed from before the children of Israel.
10 Awo Mukama n’ayogerera mu baddu be bannabbi
And the Lord spoke by his servants the prophets, saying,
11 nti, “Olw’emizizo gino Manase kabaka wa Yuda gy’akoze, ng’ayonoona okusinga Abamoli abaamusooka bye baakola, n’ayonoonyesa Yuda n’ebifaananyi bye,
Forasmuch as Manasses the king of Juda has wrought all these evil abominations, beyond all that the Amorite did, who lived before [him], and has led Juda also into sin by their idols,
12 bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama, Katonda wa Isirayiri nti, ‘Ndireeta ku Yerusaalemi ne ku Yuda obubi obusingirayo ddala, era na buli muntu alikiwulira, alisasamala.
[it shall] not [be] so. Thus saith the Lord God of Israel, Behold, I bring calamities upon Jerusalem and Juda, so that both the ears of every one that hears shall tingle.
13 Ndigolola omuguwa ogwakozesebwa ku Samaliya n’ejjinja erigera eryakozesebwa ku nnyumba ya Akabu eri Yerusaalemi, era ne mmalirawo ddala Yerusaalemi ng’omuntu bw’akomba esowaani okumalirako ddala emmere, n’okugifuula n’agifuula.
And I will stretch out over Jerusalem the measure of Samaria, and the plummet of the house of Achaab: and I will wipe Jerusalem as a jar is wiped, and turned upside down in the wiping.
14 Era ndyabulira ekitundu ekyafikkawo eky’obusika bwange, ne nkigabula mu mukono gw’abalabe baabwe, ne bababbako buli kantu,
And I will reject the remnant of my inheritance, and will deliver them into the hands of their enemies; and they shall be for a plunder and for a spoil to all their enemies:
15 kubanga baakola ebibi mu maaso gange, ne bansunguwaza nnyo okuviira ddala ku lunaku bajjajjaabwe kwe baaviirako mu Misiri n’okutuusa ku lunaku lwa leero.’”
forasmuch as they have done wickedly in my sight, and have provoked me from the day that I brought out their fathers out of Egypt, even until this day.
16 Ate, era Manase yayiwa omusaayi mungi gw’abo abataaliko musango, n’agujjuza Yerusaalemi, obutasaako ebibi ebirala bye yayonoonyesa Yuda, ne bakola ebibi mu maaso ga Mukama.
Moreover Manasses shed very much innocent blood, until he filled Jerusalem [with it] from one end to the other, beside his sins with which he caused Juda to sin, in doing evil in the eyes of the Lord.
17 Ebyafaayo ebirala ebyabaawo mu mirembe gya Manase, ne byonna bye yakola, okwo nga kwe kuli n’ebibi bye yakola, tebyawandiikibwa mu kitabo eky’ebyomumirembe gya bassekabaka ba Yuda?
And the rest of the acts of Manasses, and all that he did, and his sin which he sinned, [are] not these things written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Juda?
18 Awo Manase n’afa, n’aziikibwa mu nnimiro ey’olubiri lwe, ye nnimiro ya Uzza, ne mutabani we Amoni n’amusikira okuba kabaka.
And Manasses slept with his fathers, and was buried in the garden of his house, [even] in the garden of Oza: and Amos his son reigned in his stead.
19 Amoni lwe yatandika okufuga, yali awezezza emyaka amakumi abiri mu ebiri, era n’afugira mu Yerusaalemi okumala emyaka ebiri. Nnyina ye yali Mesullemesi muwala wa Kaluzi ow’e Yotuba.
Twenty and two years old [was] Amos when he began to reign, and he reigned two years in Jerusalem: and his mother's name [was] Mesollam, daughter of Arus of Jeteba.
20 N’akola ebibi mu maaso ga Mukama, nga kitaawe bwe yakola.
And he did that which was evil in the sight of the Lord, as Manasses his father did.
21 N’atambulira mu ngeri za kitaawe, n’asinzanga ebifaananyi kitaawe bye yasinzanga.
And he walked in all the way in which his father walked, and served the idols which his father served, and worshipped them.
22 Yava ku Mukama, Katonda wa bajjajjaabe, n’atatambulira mu kkubo lya Mukama.
And he forsook the Lord God of his fathers, and walked not in the way of the Lord.
23 Awo abakungu ba Amoni ne bamusalira olukwe, ne bamuttira mu lubiri lwe.
And the servants of Amos conspired against him, and slew the king in his house.
24 Awo olwatuuka, abantu mu nsi ne beekobaana, ne batta abo bonna abaali mu lukwe olw’okumutta, era ne bafuula Yosiya mutabani we kabaka.
And the people of the land slew all that had conspired against king Amos; and the people of the land made Josias king in his room.
25 Ebyafaayo ebirala ebyabaawo mu mirembe gya Amoni, tebyawandiikibwa mu kitabo eky’ebyomumirembe gya bassekabaka ba Yuda?
And the rest of the acts of Amos, [even] all that he did, behold, [are] not these written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Juda?
26 Kabaka n’aziikibwa mu ntaana ye mu nnimiro ya Uzza, mutabani we Yosiya n’amusikira okuba kabaka.
And they buried him in his tomb in the garden of Oza: and Josias his son reigned in his stead.
