2 Tantara 21
1 Ary Josafata lasa nodi-mandry any amin’ ny razany, dia nalevina tao amin’ ny razany tao an-Tanànan’ i Davida izy; ary Jehorama zanany no nanjaka nandimby azy.
And Jehoshaphat slept with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers in the city of David. And Jehoram his son became king in his stead.
2 Ary nanan-drahalahy, zanak’ i Josafata, koa izy, dia Azaria sy Jehiela sy Zakaria sy Azaria sy Mikaela ary Sefatia; ireo rehetra ireo no zanak’ i Josafata, mpanjakan’ ny Isiraely.
And he had brothers the sons of Jehoshaphat: 'Azaryah, and Jechiel, and Zecharyahu, and 'Azaryahu, and Michael, and Shephatyahu, all these being sons of Jehoshaphat the king of Israel.
3 Ary nomen-drainy harena betsaka ireo, dia volafotsy sy volamena ary zava-tsoa mbamin’ ny tanàna sasany mimanda tany Joda; fa ny fanjakana kosa dia nomeny an’ i Jehorama, satria izy no lahimatoa.
And their father gave them many gifts [consisting] of silver, and of gold, and of precious things, with fortified cities in Judah; but the kingdom gave he to Jehoram; because he was the first-born.
4 Ary raha vao nanjaka tamin’ ny fanjakan’ ny rainy Jehorama, dia nitombo hery izy ka namono ny rahalahiny rehetra mbamin’ ny mpanapaka sasany tamin’ ny Isiraely koa tamin’ ny sabatra.
Now when Jehoram was risen up over the kingdom of his father, and had strengthened himself, he slew all his brothers with the sword, and also some of the princes of Israel.
5 Roa amby telo-polo taona Jehorama, fony izy vao nanjaka, ary valo taona no nanjakany tany Jerosalema.
Thirty and two years was Jehoram old when he became king, and eight years did he reign in Jerusalem.
6 Ary nandeha tamin’ ny lalan’ ny mpanjakan’ ny Isiraely izy, dia tahaka ny nataon’ ny taranak’ i Ahaba fa zanakavavin’ i Ahaba no vadiny, eny, nanao izay ratsy eo imason’ i Jehovah izy.
And he walked in the way of the kings of Israel, as had done the house of Achab; for the daughter of Achab had he for wife: and he did what is evil in the eyes of the Lord.
7 Nefa Jehovah tsy nety nandringana ny taranak’ i Davida noho ny fanekena nataony tamin’ i Davida sy ny nilazany fa homeny jiro mandrakizay izy mbamin’ ny taranany.
Yet would the Lord not destroy the house of David, on account of the covenant which he had made with David, and as he had said to give to him a government and to his sons at all times.
8 Tamin’ ny andron’ i Jehorama no niodinan’ ny Edomita ka tsy nanoa ny Joda, fa nanangana mpanjaka ho azy izy.
In his days Edom revolted from under the power of Judah, and they appointed a king over themselves.
9 Ka dia nivoaka Jehorama sy ireo mpanjaka nitondra ny kalesiny rehetra; ary nanaovany latsak’ alina ny Edomita izay nanodidina azy sy ny komandin’ ny kalesy.
Then did Jehoram go over with his princes, and all the chariots were with him; and he rose up by night, and smote the Edomites who compassed him about, and the captains of the chariots.
10 Nefa ny Edomita mbola niodina ka tsy nanoa ny Joda ihany ambaraka androany. Ary tamin’ izany andro izany Libna koa niodina tsy nety nanoa an’ i Jehorama, satria efa nahafoy an’ i Jehovah, Andriamanitra ny razany, izy.
Yet Edom revolted from under the power of Judah even until this day: then did Libnah revolt at the same time from under his power; because he had forsaken the Lord the God of his fathers.
11 Ary nanao fitoerana avo teny an-tendrombohitr’ i Joda koa izy sady nampijangajanga ny mponina tany Jerosalema ary nitaona ny Joda mangingina hanao izany.
He also made high-places in the mountains of Judah, and caused the inhabitants of Jerusalem to go astray, and misled Judah.
12 Ary nisy taratasy avy tamin’ i Elia mpaminany tonga tao aminy nanao hoe: Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah, Andriamanitr’ i Davida rainao: Noho ny tsy nandehananao tamin’ ny lalan’ i Josafata rainao, na ny lalan’ i Asa, mpanjakan’ ny Joda,
And there came unto him a writing from Elijah the prophet, saying, Thus hath said the Lord the God of David thy father, Inasmuch as thou hast not walked in the ways of Jehoshaphat thy father, and in the ways of Assa the king of Judah,
13 fa nandeha tamin’ ny lalan’ ny mpanjakan’ ny Isiraely kosa ianao ka nampijangajanga ny Joda sy ny mponina any Jerosalema toy ny fijangajangan’ ny taranak’ i Ahaba, sady novonoinao koa ny rahalahinao nateraky ny rainao, izay tsara noho ianao,
But hast walked in the way of the kings of Israel, and hast caused Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem to go astray, as the house of Achab hath caused [others] to go astray, and hast also slain thy brothers of thy father's house, who were better than thyself:
14 dia, indro, hasian’ i Jehovah areti-mandringana ny vahoakanao sy ny zanakao sy ireo vadinao mbamin’ ny biby fiompinao rehetra;
Behold, the Lord will inflict a great plague on thy people, and on thy children, and on thy wives, and on all thy possessions;
15 ary ianao koa ho azon’ ny aretina mafy, dia aretina amin’ ny tsinainao, mandra-pialàlan’ ny tsinainao isan’ andro isan’ andro noho ny aretina.
And thou shalt be [afflicted] with great diseases by a disease of thy bowels, until thy bowels pass out [from thee] by reason of the disease days upon days.
16 Ary Jehovah namporisika ny Filistina sy ny Arabo izay ao akaikin’ ny Etiopiana hamely an’ i Jehorama;
And the Lord stirred up against Jehoram the spirit of the Philistines, and of the Arabians, that are alongside of the Cushim:
17 ary niakatra tany Joda ireo ka nisesika tao, dia nobaboiny ny fananana rehetra izay an’ ny ankohonan’ ny mpanjaka mbamin’ ny zanany sy ny vadiny koa, ka tsy nisy zanany intsony, afa-tsy Joahaza faralahiny ihany.
And they went up against Judah, and made an incursion into it, and carried away all the substance that was found in the king's house, and also his sons, and his wives; and there was not left unto him any son, save Jehoachaz, the youngest of his sons.
18 Ary nony afaka izany rehetra izany, dia nasian’ i Jehovah aretina tsy azo sitranina tamin’ ny tsinainy izy.
And after all this did the Lord afflict him in his bowels with a disease which was incurable.
19 Ary rehefa ela, nony afaka roa taona, dia nialàla ny tsinainy azon’ ny aretiny; ka dia maty tamin’ ny fangirifiriana mafy izy. Ary ny vahoakany tsy mba nandoro zavatra ho fisaonana azy toy ny nataony tamin’ ny razany.
And it came to pass, from days to days, and when the [fixed] time was expired, after two years, that his bowels passed out [from him] by reason of his disease: so he died of evil diseases. And his people made no burning for him, like the burning for his fathers.
20 Roa amby telo-polo taona izy, fony vao nanjaka, ary valo taona no nanjakany tany Jerosalema; koa lasa tsy nisy nalahelo azy izy. Ary nalevina tao an-Tanànan’ i Davida ihany izy, nefa tsy mba tao amin’ ny fasan’ ny mpanjaka.
Thirty and two years old was he when he became king, and eight years did he reign in Jerusalem, and departed without joy: and they buried him in the city of David, but not in the sepulchres of the kings.
