1 Ie an-taom-pifehea’ i Asa faha-telopolo eneñ’ amby, le nionjo hiatreatre am’Iehodà t’i Baasà mpanjaka’ Israele, le namboare’e ty Ramà, hisebañe ze te hiavotse ndra himoak’ mb’amy Asa mpanjaka’ Iehodà.
In the six and thirtieth year of the reign of Asa, Baasha king of Israel went up against Judah, and built Ramah, that he might not allow anyone to go out or come in to Asa king of Judah.
2 Aa le nakare’ i Asa ty volafoty naho volamena am-pañajam-bara añ’ anjomba’ Iehovà naho añ’ anjomba’ i mpanjakay vaho nahitri’e mb’ amy Benehadade nte-Arame nimoneñe e Damesèk’ ao, ami’ty hoe:
Then Asa brought out silver and gold out of the treasures of the house of the LORD and of the king's house, and sent to Ben Hadad king of Aram, who lived at Damascus, saying,
3 Eo ty fañina amako naho ama’o, manahake i tañivon-drae’o naho an-draekoy, Ingo te nañitrifako volafoty naho volamena; Mañaveloa, apitsoho ty fañina’o amy Baasà mpanjaka’ Israele, hisitaha’e amako.
"Let there be a treaty between me and you, as there was between my father and your father. Look, I have sent you silver and gold. Go, break your treaty with Baasha king of Israel, that he may depart from me."
4 Aa le hinao’ i Benehadade t’i Asa mpanjaka naho nirahe’e haname o rova’ Israeleo o mpifehen-dahindefo’eo; le linafa’ iareo t’Iione naho i Dane naho i Abelmaime naho ze fonga rovam-pañaja’ i Naftaly.
Ben Hadad listened to king Asa, and sent the captains of his armies against the cities of Israel; and they struck Ijon, and Dan, and Abel Maim, and all the storage cities of Naphtali.
5 Aa ie jinanji’ i Baasa izay, le najihe’e ty fañamboarañe i Ramà vaho nado’e i nitoloña’ey.
It happened, when Baasha heard of it, that he left off building Ramah, and let his work cease.
6 Aa le nente’ i Asa t’Iehodà iaby hitaoñe o vato’ i Ramào naho o boda’e nam­boare’ i Baasao le namboatse i Gebà naho i Mitspà.
Then Asa the king took all Judah; and they carried away the stones of Ramah, and its timber, with which Baasha had built; and he built therewith Geba and Mizpah.
7 Ie amy zay, nimb’ amy Asa mpanjaka’ Iehoda mb’eo t’i Kananý mpioniñe, nanao ty hoe, Kanao niatoa’o ty mpanjaka’ i Arame, le tsy niatoa’o t’Iehovà Andrianañahare’o, le nipolititse am-pità’o ty valobohòm-panjaka’ i Arame.
At that time Hanani the seer came to Asa king of Judah, and said to him, "Because you have relied on the king of Aram, and have not relied on the LORD your God, therefore is the army of the king of Aram escaped out of your hand.
8 Tsy nivalobohòke vasiañeñe reketse sarete naho mpiningitse nivorentsañe hao o nte-Koseo naho o nte-Lobeo? Fe kanao niatoa’o t’Iehovà le nitolora’e am-pità’o.
Weren't the Ethiopians and the Lubim a huge army, with chariots and horsemen exceeding many? Yet, because you relied on the LORD, he delivered them into your hand.
9 Fa mihelañe mb’eo mb’eo an-tane atoy o fihaino’ Iehovào, hiboake ho maozatse amo añ’ampon-troke ama’e. Toe nanoe’o hagegeañe i rahay, hanañ’aly irehe henane zao.
For the eyes of the LORD run back and forth throughout the whole earth, to show himself strong in the behalf of them whose heart is perfect toward him. Herein you have done foolishly; for from now on you shall have wars."
10 Niforoforo amy mpioniñey t’i Asa le nampijoñe’e am-bahorañe ao ami’ty haviñera’e amy rahay. Namorekeke ondaty ka t’i Asa henane zay.
Then Asa was angry with the seer, and put him in the prison; for he was in a rage with him because of this thing. Asa oppressed some of the people at the same time.
11 Aa ty amo fitoloña’ i Asao, ty valoha’e ampara’ ty fara’e, ingo te misokitse amo bokem-panjaka’ Iehoda naho Israeleo.
Look, the acts of Asa, first and last, look, they are written in the book of the kings of Judah and Israel.
12 Ie an-taom-pifehea’e faha telopolo sive’ amby, narare am-pandia’e t’i Asa; toe nanjeke mafe i arete’ey; fe amy hasilo’ey, tsy Iehovà ty pinai’e, fa o mpanahao.
In the thirty-ninth year of his reign Asa was diseased in his feet; his disease was exceeding great: yet in his disease he did not seek the LORD, but to the physicians.
13 Aa le nitrao-piròtse aman-droae’e t’i Asa; nivilasy an-taom-pifehea’e fah’ efapolo-raik’ amby.
Asa slept with his fathers, and died in the one and fortieth year of his reign.
14 Nalente’ iareo an-kibori’e hinali’e ho am-bata’e an-drova’ i Davide ao, le natsalalampa’ iareo amy fandreañe natsafeñe raha mandrifondrifoñe naho karazan’ embok’ ankafankafa nitsenèñe ami’ty hilala’ o mpanao rano mañitseoy; le nanoa’ iareo fañoroañe ra’elahy.
They buried him in his own tomb that he had dug out in the City of David, and laid him in the bed which was filled with spices and various kinds of sweet-scented herbs prepared by the perfumers' art, and they made a very great fire for him.
