1 Ary ny vahoaka rehetra tamin’ ny Joda naka an’ i Ozia, izay enina ambin’ ny folo taona, ka nampanjaka azy handimby an’ i Amazia rainy.
Then all the people of Judah took Uzziah, who was sixteen years old, and made him king in the room of his father Amaziah.
2 Izy no nanamboatra an’ i Elota ka nampody azy ho an’ ny Joda indray, rehefa lasa nodimandry any amin’ ny razany ny mpanajaka.
He built Eloth, and restored it to Judah, after that the king slept with his fathers.
3 Enina ambin’ ny folo taona Ozia, fony izy vao nanjaka, ary roa amby dimam-polo taona no nanjakany tany Jerosalema. Ary ny anaran-dreniny dia Jekolia, avy any Jerosalema.
Sixteen years old was Uzziah when he began to reign, and he reigned fifty and two years in Jerusalem. His mother’s name also was Jecoliah of Jerusalem.
4 Ary nanao izay mahitsy eo imason’ i Jehovah izy, tahaka izay rehetra nataon’ i Amazia rainy.
And he did that which was right in the sight of Yhwh, according to all that his father Amaziah did.
5 Ary nitady an’ Andriamanitra izy tamin’ ny andron’ i Zakaria, izay nahafantatra ny fahitana an’ Andriamanitra; ary tamin’ ny andro nitadiavany an’ i Jehovah dia nambinin’ Andriamanitra izy.
And he sought God in the days of Zechariah, who had understanding in the visions of God: and as long as he sought Yhwh, God made him to prosper.
6 Ary nivoaka izy ka niady tamin’ ny Filistina, dia nandrava ny mandan’ i Gata sy ny an’ i Jabne sy ny an’ i Asdoda ary nanao tanàna tany Asdoda sy tany amin’ ny Filistina.
And he went forth and warred against the Philistines, and brake down the wall of Gath, and the wall of Jabneh, and the wall of Ashdod, and built cities about Ashdod, and among the Philistines.
7 Ary Andriamanitra nanampy azy hamely ny Filistina sy ny Arabo izay nonina tao Gorabala ary ny Meonita.
And God helped him against the Philistines, and against the Arabians that dwelt in Gur–baal, and the Mehunims.
8 Ary ny Amonita nandoa hetra ho an’ i Ozia; dia niely ny lazany hatrany akaikin’ i Egypta, fa tonga mahery indrindra izy.
And the Ammonites gave gifts to Uzziah: and his name spread abroad even to the entering in of Egypt; for he strengthened himself exceedingly.
9 Ary Ozia nanao tilikambo tany Jerosalema, teo amin’ ny vavahady an-jorony sy teo amin’ ny vavahady mankao amin’ ny tany lemaka sy teo an-jorony ka nanamafy azy.
Moreover Uzziah built towers in Jerusalem at the corner gate, and at the valley gate, and at the turning of the wall, and fortified them.
10 Ary nanao tilikambo tany an-efitra koa izy sady nihady lavaka maro ho famorian-drano; fa izy nanana omby aman’ ondry betsaka teny an-tany lemaka sy teny an-tanety ary mpiasa koa sy mpamboatra tanim-boaloboka teny an-tendrombohitra sy teny Karmela koa; fa tia asa tany izy.
Also he built towers in the desert, and digged many wells: for he had much cattle, both in the low country, and in the plains: husbandmen also, and vine dressers in the mountains, and in Carmel: for he loved husbandry.
11 Ary Ozia nanana miaramila maro, izay nanao antokony handeha hanafika, dia araka ny isany izay nandaminan’ i Jeiela mpanoratra sy Mahaseia mpifehy azy, ka nofehezin’ i Hanania, anankiray tamin’ ny komandy voatendrin’ ny mpanjaka.
Moreover Uzziah had an army of fighting men, that went out to war by bands, according to the number of their account by the hand of Jeiel the scribe and Maaseiah the ruler, under the hand of Hananiah, one of the king’s captains.
12 Enin-jato amby roa rivo no isan’ ny lohan’ ny fianakaviana rehetra, dia lehilahy mahery avokoa.
The whole number of the chief of the fathers of the mighty men of valour were two thousand and six hundred.
13 Ary ny miaramila fehezin’ ireo dia diman-jato amby fito arivo sy telo hetsy, izay nahery niady indrindra, homba ny mpanjaka hiady amin’ ny fahavalony.
And under their hand was an army, three hundred thousand and seven thousand and five hundred, that made war with mighty power, to help the king against the enemy.
14 Ary Ozia namboatra ampinga sy lefona sy fiarovan-doha sy akanjo fiarovan-tratra sy tsipìka ary vaton’ antsamotady ho an’ ireo miaramila rehetra ireo.
And Uzziah prepared for them throughout all the army shields, and spears, and helmets, and armour, and bows, and slings to cast stones.
15 Ary nanao fiadiana lehibe tany Jerosalema izy, natao araka ny marika vitan’ ny mahay zavatra, hapetraka eo amin’ ny tilikambo sy eo an-tampon’ ny manda mba handefasana zana-tsipìka sy vato lehibe. Ary niely lavitra ny lazan’ i Ozia; fa mahagaga ny nanampiana azy, ka tonga mahery tokoa izy.
And he made in Jerusalem engines, invented by cunning men, to be on the towers and upon the bulwarks, to shoot arrows and great stones withal. And his name spread far abroad; for he was marvellously helped, till he was strong.
16 Ary nony nahery izy, dia niavonavona ny fony, ka nanao izay ratsy izy, fa nivadika tamin’ i Jehovah Andriamaniny ka niditra tao amin’ ny tempolin’ i Jehovah handoro ditin-kazo manitra teo amln’ ny alitara fandoroana ditin-kazo manitra.
But when he was strong, his heart was lifted up to his destruction: for he transgressed against Yhwh his God, and went into the temple of Yhwh to burn incense upon the altar of incense.
17 Fa niditra nanaraka azy kosa Azaria mpisorona mbamin’ ny valo-polo lahy amin’ ny mpisoron’ i Jehovah, lehilahy samy mahery avokoa.
And Azariah the priest went in after him, and with him fourscore priests of Yhwh, that were valiant men:
18 Ary nanohitra an’ i Ozia mpanjaka ireo ka nanao taminy hoe: Tsy raharahanao, ry Ozia, ny handoro ditin-kazo manitra ho an’ i Jehovah, fa an’ ny mpisorona ihany, dia ny taranak’ i Arona, izay nohamasinina handoro ditin-kazo manitra. Mialà amin’ ny fitoerana masìna, fa nanao izay mahadiso ianao; ary tsy ho voninahitra ho anao eo anatrehan’ i Jehovah Andriamanitra izany.
And they withstood Uzziah the king, and said unto him, It appertaineth not unto thee, Uzziah, to burn incense unto Yhwh, but to the priests the sons of Aaron, that are consecrated to burn incense: go out of the sanctuary; for thou hast trespassed; neither shall it be for thine honour from Yhwh God.
19 Dia nisafoaka Ozia, ary nisy lovia teny an-tànany handoroany ditin-kazo manitra; koa raha mbola nisafoaka tamin’ ny mpisorona izy, dia nisy habokana nipoitra tamin’ ny handriny teo anatrehan’ ny mpisorona tao an-tranon’ i Jehovah, tanilan’ ny alitara fandoroana ditin-kazo manitra.
Then Uzziah was wroth, and had a censer in his hand to burn incense: and while he was wroth with the priests, the leprosy even rose up in his forehead before the priests in the house of Yhwh, from beside the incense altar.
20 Ary Azaria mpisoronabe sy ny mpisorona rehetra dia nanatrika nijery azy, ka, indro, boka ny handriny; dia noroahiny hiala teo izy; nefa ny tenany dia mba nivoaka faingana ihany koa, satria Jehovah efa namely azy.
And Azariah the chief priest, and all the priests, looked upon him, and, behold, he was leprous in his forehead, and they thrust him out from thence; yea, himself hasted also to go out, because Yhwh had smitten him.
21 Ary Ozia mpanjaka dia boka ambara-pahafatiny ka nitoetra tao an-trano mitokana, satria tsy nahazo niditra tao an-tranon’ i Jehovah intsony izy. Ka dia Jotama zanany no nanapaka tao an-dapa sady nitsara ny vahoaka.
And Uzziah the king was a leper unto the day of his death, and dwelt in a several house, being a leper; for he was cut off from the house of Yhwh: and Jotham his son was over the king’s house, judging the people of the land.
22 Ary ny tantaran’ i Ozia sisa, na ny voalohany na ny farany, dia efa nosoratan’ Isaia mpaminany, zanak’ i Amoza;
Now the rest of the acts of Uzziah, first and last, did Isaiah the prophet, the son of Amoz, write.
23 Ary Ozia lasa nodi-mandry any amin’ ny razany, dia nalevina tao amin’ ny razany tao an-tsaha fandevenana izay an’ ny mpanjaka, satria hoy ny olona: Boka izy. Ary Jotama zanany no nanjaka nandimby azy.
So Uzziah slept with his fathers, and they buried him with his fathers in the field of the burial which belonged to the kings; for they said, He is a leper: and Jotham his son reigned in his stead.
