2 Tantara 26
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.
And all the people of Judah took 'Uzziyahu, who was then sixteen years old, and made him king instead of his father Amazyahu.
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 it was that built Eloth, and brought it back to Judah, after 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 'Uzziyahu when he became king, and fifty and two years did he reign in Jerusalem. And his mother's name was Yecholyah of Jerusalem.
4 Ary nanao izay mahitsy eo imason’ i Jehovah izy, tahaka izay rehetra nataon’ i Amazia rainy.
And he did what is right in the eyes of the Lord, in accordance with all that his father Amazyahu had done.
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 was [inclined] to seek God in the days of Zecharyahu, who had understanding in the visions of God; and during the time that he sought the Lord, God caused 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 made war against the Philistines, and he broke down the wall of Gath, and the wall of Jabneh, and the wall of Ashdod; and he built cities in [the country of] 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-ba'al, and the Me'unim.
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 presents to 'Uzziyahu: and his name extended even to the entrance of Egypt; for he became exceedingly strong.
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.
And 'Uzziyahu built towers in Jerusalem, above the corner-gate, and above the valley-gate, and at the angle, and made them strong.
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.
He built also towers in the desert, and hewed out many wells; for he had much cattle, both in the lowlands and in the plain; [also] husbandmen, and vintners 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 'Uzziyah had an army of fighting men, that went out to the host by bands, according to the number of those mustered of them through the hand of Je'iel the scribe and Ma'asseyahu the overseer, under the supervision of Chananyahu, 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 chiefs of the family divisions of the mighty men of valor was 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 supervision was an efficient army, [of] 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 'Uzziyahu prepared for them, for all the host, shields, and spears, and helmets, and coats of mail, and bows, and stones for slinging.
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 artificial contrivances, contrived by a skilful man, to be [stationed] on the towers and upon the ramparts, to shoot off arrows and great stones. And his name extended ever so far abroad; for he was marvelously assisted, till he became 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; and he became unfaithful against the Lord his God, and went into the temple of the Lord 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 there went in after him 'Azaryahu the priest, and with him were priests of the Lord, valiant men, [to the number of] eighty;
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 stood forward against king 'Uzziyahu, and they said unto him, It is not for thee, O 'Uzziyahu, to burn incense unto the Lord, but for the priests the sons of Aaron, who are consecrated to burn incense: go out of the sanctuary; for thou hast trespassed; and it will not be for thy honor from the Lord 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.
But 'Uzziyahu became wroth, and in his hand was a censer to burn incense: and while he was wroth with the priests, the leprosy even broke out on his forehead before the priests in the house of the Lord, above the altar of the incense.
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 when 'Azaryahu the chief priest, with all the priests, turned about toward him, behold, he was leprous on his forehead, and they hurried him away from there: yea, he also made haste to go out, because the Lord had afflicted 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 king 'Uzziyahu was a leper until the day of his death, and dwelt in the leper-house, as a leper; for he was excluded from the house of the Lord: and Jotham his son was over the king's house, [and] judged 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;
And the rest of the acts of 'Uzziyahu, the first and the last, did Isaiah the prophet, the son of Amos 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.
And 'Uzziyahu slept with his fathers, and they buried him with his fathers in the burial-field which belonged to the kings; for they said, He is a leper: and Jotham his son became king in his stead.
