2 Tantara 25
1 Roapolo taoñe lim’ amby t’i Amatsià te niorotse nifehe, le nifehe roapolo taoñe sive amby e Ierosalaime ao. Iehoadane nte-Ierosalaime ty tahinan-drene’e.
Amaziah was twenty-five years old when he began to reign, and he reigned twenty-nine years in Jerusalem. His mother’s name was Jehoaddan, of Jerusalem.
2 Nanao soa am-pivazohoa’ Iehovà eo re, fe tsy an-kaampon’ arofo.
He did that which was right in the LORD’s eyes, but not with a perfect heart.
3 Aa, ie vata’e nifejañe i fifehea’ey, le vinono’e i mpitoroñe nañoho-doza aman-drae’e rey,
Now when the kingdom was established to him, he killed his servants who had killed his father the king.
4 fe tsy vinono’e o ana’eo ie nanao ze sinokitse amy Hake, amy boke’ i Mosey, amy lili’ Iehovà ty hoe: Tsy havetrake ty amo ana’eo o roae’eo vaho tsy havetrake ty aman-droae’e o ana’eo, fa songa hivetrake ty amo hakeo’eo.
But he didn’t put their children to death, but did according to that which is written in the law in the book of Moses, as the LORD commanded, saying, “The fathers shall not die for the children, neither shall the children die for the fathers; but every man shall die for his own sin.”
5 Mbore natonto’ i Amatsià t’Iehoda naho nanoe’e mpifelek’ arivo naho mpifele-jato ty aman’ anjomban-droae’e, le nitsitsife’e t’Iehodà naho i Beniamine namolily o roapolo taoñe mañamboneo, nitendreke te telo hetse t’indaty nilefe, nahafionjoñe mb’añ’aly naho nahatan-defoñe vaho fikalañe.
Moreover Amaziah gathered Judah together and ordered them according to their fathers’ houses, under captains of thousands and captains of hundreds, even all Judah and Benjamin. He counted them from twenty years old and upward, and found that there were three hundred thousand chosen men, able to go out to war, who could handle spear and shield.
6 Nikarama’e ka ty fanalolahy mahasibeke rai-hetse boake Israele ao ami’ty talenta volafoty zato.
He also hired one hundred thousand mighty men of valour out of Israel for one hundred talents of silver.
7 Fe niheo ama’e mb’eo ty ondatin’ Añahare nanao ty hoe: Ry mpanjaka, ko ampindrezeñe ama’o i firimboña’ Israeley, ie tsy am’ Israele t’Iehovà vaho tsy mpiaman-dra iaia amo ana’ i Efraimeo.
A man of God came to him, saying, “O king, don’t let the army of Israel go with you, for the LORD is not with Israel, with all the children of Ephraim.
8 Aa naho mb’eo irehe, le ano! mihafatrara an-kotakotake tsy mone hampitsingoritrien’ Añahare aolo’ o rafelahi’oo; fa aman’ Añahare ty haozarañe, ke hañolotse he handrotsake.
But if you will go, take action, and be strong for the battle. God will overthrow you before the enemy; for God has power to help, and to overthrow.”
9 Le hoe t’i Amatsià am’indatin’ Añaharey. Aa vaho atao’ay akore i talenta zato natoloko amy firimboña’ Israeley? Le hoe ty natoi’ indatin’ Añaharey, Mahafanolotse maro mandikoatse izay t’Iehovà.
Amaziah said to the man of God, “But what shall we do for the hundred talents which I have given to the army of Israel?” The man of God answered, “The LORD is able to give you much more than this.”
10 Aa le nampolie’ i Amatsià o lahindefoñe nimb’ ama’e boak’ Efraimeo; fe nisolebotse am’ Iehodà ty haboseha’ iareo vaho nimpoly am-piforoforoañe.
Then Amaziah separated them, the army that had come to him out of Ephraim, to go home again. Therefore their anger was greatly kindled against Judah, and they returned home in fierce anger.
11 Aa le nihafatrarem-batañe t’i Amatsià, le niaoloa’e ondati’eo naho nimb’am-bavatanen-tsira mb’eo vaho zinama’e ty rai-ale amo ana’ i Seireo.
Amaziah took courage, and led his people out and went to the Valley of Salt, and struck ten thousand of the children of Seir.
12 Tsinepa’ o ana’ Iehodao ka ty rai-ale veloñe, le nasese’ iereo mb’ ambone teva, le nahereretsa’ iareo boak’ ambone’ i herakerakey vaho nifoifoy.
The children of Judah carried away ten thousand alive, and brought them to the top of the rock, and threw them down from the top of the rock, so that they all were broken in pieces.
13 Nivolose’ i firimboñan-dahindefoñe nampolie’ i Amatsià tsy hionjoñe mb’an-kotakotakey o rova’ Iehodà boake Somerone pake Betekoroneo naho nanjamañe ty telo arivo am’ iereo vaho nampikopake vara maro.
But the men of the army whom Amaziah sent back, that they should not go with him to battle, fell on the cities of Judah from Samaria even to Beth Horon, and struck of them three thousand, and took much plunder.
14 Ie nimpoly amy nanjamana’e o nte-Edomeoy t’i Amatsià, le nendese’e o ndrahare’ o ana’ i Seireo le natroa’e ho ‘ndrahare’e vaho nibokobokoa’e naho nañoroa’e emboke.
Now after Amaziah had come from the slaughter of the Edomites, he brought the gods of the children of Seir, and set them up to be his gods, and bowed down himself before them and burnt incense to them.
15 Aa le nisolebotse amy Amatsià ty haviñera’ Iehovà, le nañiraha’e mpitoky nanao ty hoe, Ino ty nipaia’o o ndrahare’ ondaty tsy naharombake ondati’eo am-pità’oo?
Therefore the LORD’s anger burnt against Amaziah, and he sent to him a prophet who said to him, “Why have you sought after the gods of the people, which have not delivered their own people out of your hand?”
16 Ie nisaontsia’e i entañe zay le hoe re tama’e: Tinendre ho mpanolo-kevem-panjaka v’iheo? Mifoneña; akore te ihe ho lafaeñe? le nijihetse i mpitokiy vaho nanao ty hoe: Apotako te sinafirin’ Añahare ty handrotsake azo, amy te nanoe’o o raha zao vaho tsy hinao’o i natorokoy.
As he talked with him, the king said to him, “Have we made you one of the king’s counsellors? Stop! Why should you be struck down?” Then the prophet stopped, and said, “I know that God has determined to destroy you, because you have done this and have not listened to my counsel.”
17 Nandrambe hevetse amy zao t’i Amatsià, mpanjaka’ Iehoda vaho nampañitrike mb’am’ Ioase, ana’ Iehoahaze, ana’ Ieho, mpanjaka’ Israele ty hoe: Mb’ etoan-drehe hifañatrefan-tika laharañe.
Then Amaziah king of Judah consulted his advisers, and sent to Joash, the son of Jehoahaz, the son of Jehu, king of Israel, saying, “Come! Let’s look one another in the face.”
18 Le nampisangitrife’ Ioase mpanjaka’ Israele amy Amatsià mpanjaka’ Iehoda ty hoe: Nahitri’ ty hisatse e Libanone añe amy mendoraveñe e Libanoney ty hoe: Atoloro amy ana-dahikoy i anak’ ampela’oy ho vali’e. Fe niary eo o bibi-li’ i Libanoneo nandialia i hisatsey.
Joash king of Israel sent to Amaziah king of Judah, saying, “The thistle that was in Lebanon sent to the cedar that was in Lebanon, saying, ‘Give your daughter to my son as his wife. Then a wild animal that was in Lebanon passed by and trampled down the thistle.
19 Manao ty hoe irehe, te, Ingo, fa linafako t’i Edome; aa le mitoabotse añ’ arofo ao irehe, mibohaboha; fe imoneño ty akiba’o; ino ty hikaiha’o ty joy, hikorovoke, ihe naho Iehoda mindre ama’oy?
You say to yourself that you have struck Edom; and your heart lifts you up to boast. Now stay at home. Why should you meddle with trouble, that you should fall, even you and Judah with you?’”
20 Fe tsy hinao’ i Amatsià, fa boak’ aman’ Añahare i rahay, hanolora’e am-pitàn-drafelahi’ iareo, ie nipay o ‘ndrahare’ Edomeo.
But Amaziah would not listen; for it was of God, that he might deliver them into the hand of their enemies, because they had sought after the gods of Edom.
21 Aa le nionjo mb’eo t’Ioase mpanjaka’ Israele; le nifañisa-daharañe, ie naho i Amatsià mpanjaka’ Iehoda, e Betesemese’ Iehoda eo.
So Joash king of Israel went up, and he and Amaziah king of Judah looked one another in the face at Beth Shemesh, which belongs to Judah.
22 Le nikorovok’ añatrefa’ Israele eo t’Iehoda vaho nitriban-day, songa mb’ an-kiboho’e mb’eo;
Judah was defeated by Israel; so every man fled to his tent.
23 naho rinambe’ Ioase, mpanjaka’ Israele t’i Amatsià mpanjaka’ Iehoda, ana’ Ioase, ana’ Iehoakase, e Betesemese ao naho nendese’e mb’e Ierosalaime mb’eo vaho narotsa’e ty kijoli’ Ierosalaime boak’ an-dalam-bei’ i Efraime ey, pak’an-dalam-bein-kotsok’eo, kiho efa-jato.
Joash king of Israel took Amaziah king of Judah, the son of Joash the son of Jehoahaz, at Beth Shemesh and brought him to Jerusalem, and broke down the wall of Jerusalem from the gate of Ephraim to the corner gate, four hundred cubits.
24 Le tinava’e iaby o volamena naho volafoty naho o fanake nizoeñe añ’ anjomban’ Añahare amy Ovede-edome naho am-panontonam-bara’ i anjombam-panjakaio naho ninday ondaty an-drohy vaho nimpoly mb’e Somerone mb’eo.
He took all the gold and silver, and all the vessels that were found in God’s house with Obed-Edom, and the treasures of the king’s house, and the hostages, and returned to Samaria.
25 Mbe niveloñe folo-taoñe lim’ amby tamy fivetraha’ Ioase ana’ Iehoakaze, mpanjaka’ Israeley t’i Amatsià, ana’ Ioase, mpanjaka’ Iehoda.
Amaziah the son of Joash, king of Judah, lived for fifteen years after the death of Joash, son of Jehoahaz, king of Israel.
26 Aa naho o fitoloña’ i Amatsià boak’ am-baloha’e pak’ am-para’eo, tsy fa sinokitse amy bokem-panjaka’ Iehoda naho Israeley hao?
Now the rest of the acts of Amaziah, first and last, behold, aren’t they written in the book of the kings of Judah and Israel?
27 Le nikinia aze o e Ierosalaimeo ty amy nitoliha’ i Amatsià tsy hañorike Iehovày, ie nipitsike mb’e Lakise mb’eo, fe nañirahañe e Lakise añe vaho vinono ao.
Now from the time that Amaziah turned away from following the LORD, they made a conspiracy against him in Jerusalem. He fled to Lachish, but they sent after him to Lachish and killed him there.
28 Nendeseñe an-tsoavala vaho naleveñe aman-droae’e an-drova’ Iehoda ao.
They brought him on horses and buried him with his fathers in the City of Judah.
