2 Mpanjaka 21
1 Roa ambin’ ny folo taona Manase, fony izy vao nanjaka, ary dimy amby dimam-polo taona no nanjakany tany Jerosalema. Ary ny anaran-dreniny dia Hefziba.
Manasseh was twelve years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem fifty-five years. His mother’s name was Hephzibah.
2 Ary nanao izay ratsy eo imason’ i Jehovah izy tahaka ny fahavetavetan’ ny firenena izay noroahin’ i Jehovah tsy ho eo anoloan’ ny Zanak’ Isiraely.
And he did evil in the sight of the LORD by following the abominations of the nations that the LORD had driven out before the Israelites.
3 Fa namboariny indray ny fitoerana avo, izay noravan’ i Hezekia rainy, ka nanangana alitara ho an’ i Bala izy sady nanao Aseraha, tahaka izay nataon’ i Ahaba, mpanjakan’ ny Isiraely; ary niankohoka teo anatrehan’ izay rehetra eny amin’ ny lanitra izy ka nanompo ireny,
For he rebuilt the high places that his father Hezekiah had destroyed, and he raised up altars for Baal. He made an Asherah pole, as King Ahab of Israel had done, and he worshiped and served all the host of heaven.
4 sady nanao alitara tao an-tranon’ i Jehovah koa izy, dia tao amin’ izay nolazain’ i Jehovah hoe: Ao Jerosalema no hasiako ny anarako.
Manasseh also built altars in the house of the LORD, of which the LORD had said, “In Jerusalem I will put My Name.”
5 Fa nanao alitara teo anatin’ ny kianja roa tamin’ ny tranon’ i Jehovah ho an’ izay rehetra eny amin’ ny lanitra izy.
In both courtyards of the house of the LORD, he built altars to all the host of heaven.
6 Ary ny zanany nampamakiny ny afo, sady nanandro sy nanao sikidy izy ary naka ny manao azy ho tsindrian-javatra sy ny mpanao hatsarana, ary nahery nanao izay ratsy eo imason’ i Jehovah izy ka nampahatezitra Azy.
He sacrificed his own son in the fire, practiced sorcery and divination, and consulted mediums and spiritists. He did great evil in the sight of the LORD, provoking Him to anger.
7 Ary ny sarin’ i Astarta izay nataony dia napetrany tao amin’ ny trano nolazain’ i Jehovah tamin’ i Davida sy Solomona zanany hoe: Ato amin’ ity trano ity sy eto Jerosalema, izay nofidiko tamin’ ny firenen’ Isiraely rehetra, no hasiako ny anarako mandrakizay.
Manasseh even took the carved Asherah pole he had made and set it up in the temple, of which the LORD had said to David and his son Solomon, “In this temple and in Jerusalem, which I have chosen out of all the tribes of Israel, I will establish My Name forever.
8 Ary tsy hampandeha ny tongotry ny Isiraely intsony hiala amin’ ny tany izay nomeko ny razany Aho, raha mba hitandrina ka hanao araka izay rehetra nandidiako azy sy araka ny lalàna rehetra izay nandidian’ i Mosesy mpanompoko azy ihany izy.
I will never again cause the feet of the Israelites to wander from the land that I gave to their fathers, if only they are careful to do all I have commanded them—the whole Law that My servant Moses commanded them.”
9 Nefa tsy nihaino izy; fa Manase nitaona azy hanao ratsy mihoatra noho ny nataon’ ny jentilisa, izay naringan’ i Jehovah tsy ho eo anoloan’ ny Zanak’ Isiraely.
But the people did not listen and Manasseh led them astray, so that they did greater evil than the nations that the LORD had destroyed before the Israelites.
10 Ary Jehovah nampilaza ny mpaminany mpanompony hoe:
And the LORD spoke through His servants the prophets, saying,
11 Satria Manase, mpanjakan’ ny Joda, nanao izao fahavetavetana izao ka nanao ratsy mihoatra noho izay rehetra nataon’ ny Amorita izay teo alohany sady nampanota ny Joda tamin’ ny sampiny,
“Since Manasseh king of Judah has committed all these abominations, acting more wickedly than the Amorites who preceded him, and with his idols has caused Judah to sin,
12 dia izao kosa no lazain’ i Jehovah, Andriamanitry ny Isiraely: Indro, hahatonga loza amin’ i Jerosalema sy ny Joda Aho, ka izay rehetra mandre izany dia hangintsingintsina ny sofiny roa.
this is what the LORD, the God of Israel, says: ‘Behold, I am bringing such calamity upon Jerusalem and Judah that the news will reverberate in the ears of all who hear it.
13 Ary hohenjaniko ato Jerosalema ny famolainan’ i Samaria sy ny pilaon’ ny taranak’ i Ahaba; ary hamaoka an’ i Jerosalema Aho, toy ny olona mamaoka lovia ka sady mamaoka no manohoka azy koa.
I will stretch out over Jerusalem the measuring line used against Samaria and the plumb line used against the house of Ahab, and I will wipe out Jerusalem as one wipes out a bowl—wiping it and turning it upside down.
14 Ary hafoiko ny lovako sisa ka hatolotro ho eo an-tànan’ ny fahavalony; dia ho sambotra sy ho babon’ ny fahavalony rehetra izy,
So I will forsake the remnant of My inheritance and deliver them into the hands of their enemies. And they will become plunder and spoil to all their enemies,
15 satria efa nanao izay ratsy eo imasoko izy ka nampahatezitra Ahy hatramin’ ny andro nivoahan’ ny razany avy any Egypta ka mandraka androany.
because they have done evil in My sight and have provoked Me to anger from the day their fathers came out of Egypt until this day.’”
16 Ary na dia ny rà marina aza dia nalatsak’ i Manase be dia be mandra-pamenony an’ i Jerosalema rehetra, ho fanampin’ ny ota izay nampanotany ny Joda tamin’ ny nanaovany izay ratsy eo imason’ i Jehovah.
Moreover, Manasseh shed so much innocent blood that he filled Jerusalem from end to end, in addition to the sin that he had caused Judah to commit, doing evil in the sight of the LORD.
17 Ary ny tantaran’ i Manase sisa mbamin’ izay rehetra nataony sy ny fahotana izay nataony, tsy efa voasoratra ao amin’ ny bokin’ ny tantaran’ ny mpanjakan’ ny Joda va izany?
As for the rest of the acts of Manasseh, along with all his accomplishments and the sin that he committed, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah?
18 Ary Manase lasa nodi-mandry any amin’ ny razany, dia nalevina teo an-tanimboly eo ala-tranony amin’ ny sahan’ i Oza; ary Amona zanany no nanjaka nandimby azy.
And Manasseh rested with his fathers and was buried in his palace garden, the garden of Uzza. And his son Amon reigned in his place.
19 Roa amby roa-polo taona Amona, fony izy vao nanjaka, ary roa taona no nanjakany tany Jerosalema, Ary ny anaran-dreniny dia Mesolemeta, zanakavavin’ i Haroza, avy any Jotba.
Amon was twenty-two years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem two years. His mother’s name was Meshullemeth daughter of Haruz; she was from Jotbah.
20 Ary nanao izay ratsy eo imason’ i Jehovah koa izy tahaka ny nataon’ i Manase rainy.
And he did evil in the sight of the LORD, as his father Manasseh had done.
21 Fa nandeha tamin’ ny lalana rehetra izay efa nalehan-drainy izy ka nanompo ny sampy izay notompoin-drainy sady niankohoka teo anatrehany.
He walked in all the ways of his father, and he served and worshiped the idols his father had served.
22 Ary nahafoy an’ i Jehovah, Andriamanitry ny razany, izy, fa tsy nandeha tamin’ ny lalan’ i Jehovah.
He abandoned the LORD, the God of his fathers, and did not walk in the way of the LORD.
23 Ary ny mpanompon’ i Amona mpanjaka nikomy taminy ka namono azy tao an-tranony.
Then the servants of Amon conspired against him and killed the king in his palace.
24 Ary ny vahoaka namono izay rehetra nikomy tamin’ i Amona mpanjaka, dia nampanjaka an’ i Josia zanany hisolo azy.
But the people of the land killed all those who had conspired against King Amon, and they made his son Josiah king in his place.
25 Ary ny tantaran’ i Amona sisa, tsy efa voasoratra ao amin’ ny bokin’ ny tantaran’ ny mpanjakan’ ny Joda va izany?
As for the rest of the acts of Amon, along with his accomplishments, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah?
26 Ary nalevina tao amin’ ny fasany tao amin’ ny sahan’ i Oza izy; ary Josia zanany no nanjaka nandimby azy.
And he was buried in his tomb in the garden of Uzza, and his son Josiah reigned in his place.
