2 Mpanjaka 14
1 Tamin’ ny taona faharoa nanjakan’ i Joasy, zanak’ i Joahaza, mpanjakan’ ny Isiraely, no vao nanjakan’ i Amazia, zanak’ i Joasy, mpanjakan’ ny Joda.
In the second year of the reign of Jehoash son of Jehoahaz over Israel, Amaziah son of Joash became king of Judah.
2 Dimy amby roa-polo taona izy, fony vao nanjaka, ary sivy amby roa-polo taona no nanjakany tany Jerosalema. Ary ny anaran-dreniny dia Joadana, avy any Jerosalema.
He was twenty-five years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem twenty-nine years. His mother’s name was Jehoaddan; she was from Jerusalem.
3 Ary nanao izay mahitsy eo imason’ i Jehovah izy, nefa tsy dia tahaka an’ i Davida rainy; fa tahaka izay rehetra nataon’ i Joasy rainy ihany no nataony.
And he did what was right in the eyes of the LORD, but not as his father David had done. He did everything as his father Joash had done.
4 Kanefa ny fitoerana avo tsy mba noravana; fa mbola namono zavatra hatao fanatitra sady nandoro ditin-kazo manitra teny amin’ ny fitoerana avo ihany ny olona.
Nevertheless, the high places were not taken away, and the people continued sacrificing and burning incense on the high places.
5 Ary nony tafapetraka tsara teo an-tànany ny fanjakany, dia novonoiny ireo mpanompony izay namono ny mpanjaka rainy.
As soon as the kingdom was firmly in his grasp, Amaziah executed the servants who had murdered his father the king.
6 Fa ny zanak’ ireo namono kosa dia tsy mba novonoiny, fa nataony araka izay voasoratra ao amin’ ny bokin’ ny lalàn’ i Mosesy, izay nandidian’ i Jehovah hoe: Ny ray tsy hatao maty amin’ ny ataon’ ny zanany, ary ny zanaka tsy hatao maty amin’ ny ataon’ ny rainy; fa samy hatao maty amin’ ny fahotany avy ny olona.
Yet he did not put the sons of the murderers to death, but acted according to what is written in the Book of the Law of Moses, where the LORD commanded: “Fathers must not be put to death for their children, and children must not be put to death for their fathers; each is to die for his own sin.”
7 Izy no nahafaty ny Edomita iray alina tao amin’ ny Lohasahan-tsira sady nahafaka an’ i Sela tamin’ ny ady ary nanao azy hoe Joktela, izay mbola anarany mandraka androany.
Amaziah struck down 10,000 Edomites in the Valley of Salt. He took Sela in battle and called it Joktheel, which is its name to this very day.
8 Tamin’ izany Amazia dia naniraka olona tany amin’ i Joasy, zanak’ i Joahaza, zanak’ i Jeho, mpanjakan’ ny Isiraely, nanao hoe: Avia, aoka isika hihaona.
Then Amaziah sent messengers to the king of Israel Jehoash son of Jehoahaz, the son of Jehu. “Come, let us meet face to face,” he said.
9 Fa Joasy mpanjakan’ ny Isiraely, naniraka tany amin’ i Amazia, mpanjakan’ ny Joda, nanao hoe: Ny tsilo izay tany Libanona naniraka tamin’ ny hazo sedera izay tany Libanona nanao hoe: Omeo ny zanako-lahy ny zanakao-vavy ho vadiny; ary dia namaky teo ny bibi-dia tany Libanona ka nanosihosy ny tsilo.
But Jehoash king of Israel replied to Amaziah king of Judah: “A thistle in Lebanon sent a message to a cedar in Lebanon, saying, ‘Give your daughter to my son in marriage.’ Then a wild beast in Lebanon came along and trampled the thistle.
10 Efa namely an’ i Edoma tokoa ianao, ka dia nirehareha ny fonao; aoka hahafa-po anao ary izany voninahitra izany, ka mitoera ao an-tranonao ihany; fa nahoana no hihaika ny loza hahalavo ny tenanao mbamin’ ny Joda koa ianao?
You have indeed defeated Edom, and your heart has become proud. Glory in that and stay at home. Why should you stir up trouble so that you fall—you and Judah with you?”
11 Fa tsy nanaiky Amazia. Koa dia niakatra Joasy, mpanjakan’ ny Isiraely; ary izy sy Amazia, mpanjakan’ ny Joda, nihaona tany Beti-semesy izay any Joda.
But Amaziah would not listen, and Jehoash king of Israel advanced. He and King Amaziah of Judah faced each other at Beth-shemesh in Judah.
12 Dia resy teo anoloan’ ny Isiraely ny Joda, ka samy nandositra ho any amin’ ny lainy avy izy.
And Judah was routed before Israel, and every man fled to his home.
13 Ary Amazia, mpanjakan’ ny Joda, zanak’ i Joasy, zanak’ i Ahazia, nosamborin’ i Joasy, mpanjakan’ ny Isiraely tany Beti-semesy; ary dia nankany Jerosalema Joasy, ka nandravany efa-jato hakiho ny màndany hatramin’ ny vavahadin’ i Efraima ka hatramin’ ny vavahady an-jorony.
There at Beth-shemesh, Jehoash king of Israel captured Amaziah king of Judah, the son of Joash, the son of Ahaziah. Then Jehoash went to Jerusalem and broke down the wall of Jerusalem from the Ephraim Gate to the Corner Gate—a section of four hundred cubits.
14 Ary nalainy avokoa ny volamena sy ny volafotsy rehetra ary ny fanaka rehetra izay hita tao an-tranon’ i Jehovah sy tamin’ ny rakitry ny tranon’ ny mpanjaka mbamin’ ny olona natao antoka, ka dia niverina ho any Samaria izy.
He took all the gold and silver and all the articles found in the house of the LORD and in the treasuries of the royal palace, as well as some hostages. Then he returned to Samaria.
15 Ary ny tantaran’ i Joasy sisa mbamin’ ny heriny sy ny niadiany tamin’ i Amazia, mpanjakan’ ny Joda, tsy efa voasoratra ao amin’ ny bokin’ ny tantaran’ ny mpanjakan’ ny Isiraely va izany?
As for the rest of the acts of Jehoash, along with his accomplishments, his might, and how he waged war against Amaziah king of Judah, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel?
16 Ary Joasy lasa nodimandry any amin’ ny razany, dia nalevina tany Samaria tao amin’ ny mpanjakan’ ny Isiraely izy; ary Jeroboama zanany no nanjaka nandimby azy.
And Jehoash rested with his fathers and was buried in Samaria with the kings of Israel. And his son Jeroboam reigned in his place.
17 Ary ny andro niainan’ i Amazia, zanak’ i Joasy, mpanjakan’ ny Joda, taorian’ ny nahafatesan’ i Joasy, zanak’ i Joahada, mpanjakan’ ny Isiraely, dia dimy ambin’ ny folo taona.
Amaziah son of Joash king of Judah lived for fifteen years after the death of Jehoash son of Jehoahaz king of Israel.
18 Ary ny tantaran’ i Amazia sisa, tsy efa voasoratra ao amin’ ny bokin’ ny tantaran’ ny mpanjakan’ ny Joda va izany?
As for the rest of the acts of Amaziah, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah?
19 Ary ny olona niodina taminy tany Jerosalema, dia nandositra nankany Lakisy izy; fa ny olona nampanaraka namono azy tany.
And conspirators plotted against Amaziah in Jerusalem, and he fled to Lachish. But men were sent after him to Lachish, and they killed him there.
20 Ary nasampiny tamin’ ny soavaly ny fatiny, dia nalevina tany Jerosalema tao amin’ ny razany tao an-Tanànan’ i Davida izy.
They carried him back on horses and buried him in Jerusalem with his fathers in the City of David.
21 Ary ny vahoaka rehetra tamin’ ny Joda naka an’ i Azaria, izay vao enina ambin’ ny folo taona tamin’ izay, ka nampanjaka azy handimby an’ i Amazia rainy.
Then all the people of Judah took Azariah, who was sixteen years old, and made him king in place of his father Amaziah.
22 Izy no hanamboatra an’ i Elota ka nampody azy ho an’ ny Joda, rehefa lasa nodi-mandry any amin’ ny razany ny mpanjaka.
Azariah was the one who rebuilt Elath and restored it to Judah after King Amaziah rested with his fathers.
23 Tamin’ ny taona fahadimy ambin’ ny folo nanjakan’ i Amazia, zanak’ i Joasy, mpanjakan’ ny Joda, no vao nanjakan’ i Jeroboama, zanak’ i Joasy, mpanjakan’ ny Isiraely, tany Samaria, ary nanjaka iraika amby efa-polo taona izy.
In the fifteenth year of the reign of Amaziah son of Joash over Judah, Jeroboam son of Jehoash became king of Israel, and he reigned in Samaria forty-one years.
24 Ary nanao izay ratsy eo imason’ i Jehovah izy, fa tsy niala tamin’ ny fahotana rehetra izay nataon’ i Jeroboama, zanak’ i Nebata, sady nampanotany ny Isiraely.
And he did evil in the sight of the LORD and did not turn away from all the sins that Jeroboam son of Nebat had caused Israel to commit.
25 Izy no nampody ny sisin-tanin’ ny Isiraely ka azony hatrany akaikin’ i Hamata ka hatramin’ ny ranomasin’ ny tani-hay, araka ny tenin’ i Jehovah, Andriamanitry ny Isiraely, izay nampilazainy ny mpanompony, dia Jona, zanak’ i Amitahy, mpaminany tany Gata-hefera.
This Jeroboam restored the boundary of Israel from Lebo-hamath to the Sea of the Arabah, according to the word that the LORD, the God of Israel, had spoken through His servant Jonah son of Amittai, the prophet from Gath-hepher.
26 Fa efa hitan’ i Jehovah fa nangidy indrindra ny fahorian’ ny Isiraely; ary tsy nisy sisa, na ny voahazona na ny afaka, sady tsy nisy namonjy ny Isiraely akory.
For the LORD saw that the affliction of the Israelites, both slave and free, was very bitter. There was no one to help Israel,
27 Fa tsy mba nolazain’ i Jehovah fa hovonoiny tsy ho eo ambanin’ ny lanitra ny anaran’ ny Isiraely; fa ny tànan’ i Jeroboama, zanak’ i Joasy, no nentiny namonjy azy.
and since the LORD had said that He would not blot out the name of Israel from under heaven, He saved them by the hand of Jeroboam son of Jehoash.
28 Ary ny tantaran’ i Jeroboama sisa mbamin’ izay nataony sy ny hery izay niadiany ary ny nampodiany an’ i Damaskosy sy Hamata, izay an’ ny Joda fahiny, ho an’ ny Isiraely, tsy efa voasoratra ao amin’ ny tantaran’ ny mpanjakan’ ny Isiraely va izany?
As for the rest of the acts of Jeroboam, along with all his accomplishments and might, and how he waged war and recovered both Damascus and Hamath for Israel from Judah, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel?
29 Ary Jeroboama lasa nodi-mandry any amin’ ny razany, dia tao amin’ ny mpanjakan’ ny Isiraely; ary Zakaria zanany no nanjaka nandimby azy.
And Jeroboam rested with his fathers, the kings of Israel. And his son Zechariah reigned in his place.
