2 Tantara 26
1 Rinambe’ o hene ondati’ Iehodao t’i Ozià, ie ni-folo-tao-eneñ’ amby, le nanoe’ iereo mpanjaka handimbe an-drae’e Amatsià.
All the people of Judah took Uzziah, who was sixteen years old, and made him king in the place of his father Amaziah.
2 Namboare’e t’i Elote vaho nahere’e am’Iehoda, ie fa nirotse aman-droae’e i mpanjakay.
He built Eloth and restored it to Judah. After that the king slept with his fathers.
3 Folo-taoñe eneñ’ amby t’i Ozià te niorotse nifehe, le nifehe limampolo-ro’ amby taoñe e Ierosalaime ao. Iekolià nte-Ierosalaime ty tahinan-drene’e.
Uzziah was sixteen years old when he began to reign; and he reigned fifty-two years in Jerusalem. His mother’s name was Jechiliah, of Jerusalem.
4 Le nanao ty fahiti’e am-pivazohoa’ Iehovà manahake ty nanoen-drae’e Amatsiày.
He did that which was right in the LORD’s eyes, according to all that his father Amaziah had done.
5 Nitolom-pipay an’ Andrianañahare re tañ’ andro’ i Zekarià, le nampahihits’ aze o aroñaron’ Añahareo; vaho nampiraoraoen’ Añahare amo hene andro nipaia’e Iehovào.
He set himself to seek God in the days of Zechariah, who had understanding in the vision of God; and as long as he sought the LORD, God made him prosper.
6 Le nionjomb’eo re nialy amo nte-Pelistio, le rinoba’e ty kijoli’ i Gate naho ty kijoli’ Iabnè naho ty kijoli’ Asdode vaho namboare’e rova mañohoke i Asdode añivo’ o nte-Pelistio.
He went out and fought against the Philistines, and broke down the wall of Gath, the wall of Jabneh, and the wall of Ashdod; and he built cities in the country of Ashdod, and amongst the Philistines.
7 Le nañolotse aze amo nte-Pelistio naho amo nte-Arabe nimoneñe e Gorbaaleo naho amo nte-Mehoneo t’i Andrianañahare.
God helped him against the Philistines, and against the Arabians who lived in Gur Baal, and the Meunim.
8 Le nañenga rorotse amy Ozià o nte-Amoneo; vaho niboele mb’eo mb’eo ty tahina’e pak’ am-pimoahañe e Mitsraime añe, amy te ra’elahy ty hafatrara’e.
The Ammonites gave tribute to Uzziah. His name spread abroad even to the entrance of Egypt, for he grew exceedingly strong.
9 Mbore namboatse fitalakesañ’ abo e Ierosalaime ao t’i Ozià amy lalambein-kotsokey naho amy lalambeim-bavataney naho amy lalambein-kotsokey vaho nihafatrare’e.
Moreover Uzziah built towers in Jerusalem at the corner gate, at the valley gate, and at the turning of the wall, and fortified them.
10 Niranjie’e fitalakesañ’ abo ka ty an-dratraratra añe naho nihaly vovoñe maro, ie aman-kare maro, ndra an-tane kepak’ ao, ndra a montoñe ao, naho mpiarake naho mpañalahala vahe am-bohitse ao naho e Karmele añe, fa nitea’e ty nitolon-tane.
He built towers in the wilderness, and dug out many cisterns, for he had much livestock, both in the lowlands and in the plains. He had farmers and vineyard keepers in the mountains and in the fruitful fields, for he loved farming.
11 Toe nanan-dahindefoñe t’i Ozià, mpionjomb’ añ’aly am-pirimboñañe ty ami’ty ia’ nilahare’ Ieiele mpanokitse naho i Maaseià mpitoloñe, ambanem-pità’ i Kananià, raik’ amo mpifehe’ i mpanjakaio.
Moreover Uzziah had an army of fighting men who went out to war by bands, according to the number of their reckoning made by Jeiel the scribe and Maaseiah the officer, under the hand of Hananiah, one of the king’s captains.
12 Ty ia’ o hene talèn’ anjomban-draeo, o fanalolahy nahasibekeo, le ro’arivo-tsi-enenjato.
The whole number of the heads of fathers’ households, even the mighty men of valour, was two thousand and six hundred.
13 Ambanem-pità’ iareo ty valobohòm-pialy naòke, telo-hetse-tsi-fito-arivo-tsi-liman-jato, ty mpialy an-kafatrarañe, hañolotse i mpanjakay amy rafelahiy.
Under their hand was an army, three hundred and seven thousand and five hundred, who made war with mighty power, to help the king against the enemy.
14 Nihentseñe fikalan-defoñe naho lefoñe naho aron-doha naho sarimbo viñe tinenoñe naho fale vaho vato-piletse ho a iareo, toe ho a i valobohòkey, t’i Ozià.
Uzziah prepared for them, even for all the army, shields, spears, helmets, coats of mail, bows, and stones for slinging.
15 Nandranjia’e masina t’Ierosalaime, sata’ ondaty mahimbañe, amo fitalakesañ’ aboo naho an-kotsoke ey, ho fampihirirìñañe ana-pale naho vato jabajaba. Le niboele tsietoitane añe ty tahina’e, amy t’ie nolorañe soa am-para’ te naozatse.
In Jerusalem, he made devices, invented by skilful men, to be on the towers and on the battlements, with which to shoot arrows and great stones. His name spread far abroad, because he was marvellously helped until he was strong.
16 Ie naozatse, le nientatse ty arofo’e ho ami’ty fandrotsahañ’ aze ie nandilatse amy Iehovà Andrianañahare’e; amy t’ie nimoake an-kiboho’ Iehovà ao hañembok’ amy kitrelim-pañembohañey.
But when he was strong, his heart was lifted up, so that he did corruptly and he trespassed against the LORD his God, for he went into the LORD’s temple to burn incense on the altar of incense.
17 Nañorik’ aze ao t’i Azarià mpisoroñe reketse ty mpisoro’ Iehovà valompolo, ondaty mahasibeke;
Azariah the priest went in after him, and with him eighty priests of the LORD, who were valiant men.
18 le natretrè’ iareo t’i Ozià mpanjaka, nanao ty hoe ama’e: Tsy ihe, ry Ozià, ty mañembok’ am’ Iehovà fa o mpisoroñe ana’ i Aharone norizañeo ro hañemboke; iavoto o toetse masiñeo, fa nandilatse; ie tsy hañonjoñ’ azo amy Iehovà Andrianañahare.
They resisted Uzziah the king, and said to him, “It isn’t for you, Uzziah, to burn incense to the LORD, but for the priests the sons of Aaron, who are consecrated to burn incense. Go out of the sanctuary, for you have trespassed. It will not be for your honour from the LORD God.”
19 Niforoforo amy zao t’i Ozià, ie am-pità’e eo ty fañembohañe hañemboha’e, le niloroloroa’e i mpisoroñe rey fe niboak’ an-kandri’e eo ty angamae, añ’atrefa’ i mpisoroñe rey, añ’ ila’ i kitrelim-pañembohañey, añ’ anjomba’ Iehovà ao.
Then Uzziah was angry. He had a censer in his hand to burn incense, and while he was angry with the priests, the leprosy broke out on his forehead before the priests in the LORD’s house, beside the altar of incense.
20 Hene niisa’ i Azarià mpisorom-bey naho i mpisoroñe rey, te inge, niangamae an-dahara’e eo, le naronje’ iareo boak’ ao ami’ty manao zao; eka toe nihitrihitry t’ie niavotse, amy nandafa’ Iehovà azey.
Azariah the chief priest and all the priests looked at him, and behold, he was leprous in his forehead; and they thrust him out quickly from there. Indeed, he himself also hurried to go out, because the LORD had struck him.
21 Niangamae am-para’ ty andro nivetraha’e t’i Ozià mpanjaka, le nimoneñe an-traño navik’ ao amy haangamae’ey; ie naitoañ’ amy anjomba’ Iehovày; le nifehe ty anjombam-panjaka t’Iotame ana’e, nizaka ondati’ i taneio.
Uzziah the king was a leper to the day of his death, and lived in a separate house, being a leper; for he was cut off from the LORD’s house. Jotham his son was over the king’s house, judging the people of the land.
22 Ty ila’ o fitoloña’ i Ozià, boak’ am-baloha’e pak’ am-para’eo le sinoki’ Iesaià mpitoky, ana’ i Amotse.
Now the rest of the acts of Uzziah, first and last, Isaiah the prophet, the son of Amoz, wrote.
23 Aa le nitrao firòtse aman-droae’e t’i Ozià; le nalente’ iareo marine an-droae’e an-tanem-pandeveñam-panjaka; fa hoe iereo, Angamae re. Le nandimbe aze nifehe t’Iotame, ana’e.
So Uzziah slept with his fathers; and they buried him with his fathers in the field of burial which belonged to the kings, for they said, “He is a leper.” Jotham his son reigned in his place.
