2 Mpanjaka 16
1 Niorotse nifehe t’i Ahkaze ana’ Iotame mpanjaka’ Iehodà amy taom-paha-folo-fito’ ambi’ i Pekà ana’ i Remaliày.
In the seventeenth year of Pekah son of Remaliah, began Ahaz son of Jotham king of Judah to reign.
2 Roapolo taoñe ty Ahkaze t’ie niorotse nifehe, le nifeleke folo taoñe eneñ’ amby e Ierosalaime ao; f’ie tsy nanahake i Davide rae’e mpanao ty hiti’e am-pihaino’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’e.
Twenty years old, was Ahaz when he began to reign, and, sixteen years, reigned he in Jerusalem. And he did not that which was right in the eyes of Yahweh his God, like David his father;
3 Te mone nañavelo an-tsata o mpanjaka’ Israeleo, mbore nampisorohe’e añ’afo i ana-dahi’ey, ami’ty haloloa’ o kilakila ondaty nandroaha’ Iehovà aolo’ o ana’ Israeleoo.
but walked in the way of the kings of Israel, —moreover also, me made, his son, pass through the fire, according to the abominable practices of the nations, whom Yahweh dispossessed from before the sons of Israel;
4 Nanao soroñe naho nañenga amo toets’ aboo re, naho amo haboañeo, le ambane’ ze atao hatae mandrevake iaby.
and he offered sacrifice and burned incense in the high places, and on the hills, —and under every green tree.
5 Nionjomb’e Ierosalaime mb’eo amy zao t’i Retsine mpanjaka’ i Arame, naho i Pekà ana’ i Remalià mpanjaka’ Israele hialy; le narikatohe’ iareo t’i Ahkaze f’ie tsy nahagioke.
then, came up Rezin king of Syria, and Pekah son of Remaliah king of Israel, unto Jerusalem, to make war, —and they laid siege against Ahaz, but could not overcome [him].
6 Nampoli’ i Retsine amy Arame henane zay t’i Elate, le rinoa’e boak’ Elate ao o nte-Iehodao naho nivotrake Elate o nte-Edomeo vaho nimoneñe ao pak’ androany.
At that time, Rezin king of Syria recovered Elath, to Syria, and wholly cleared out the Jews from Eloth, —and, the Syrians, entered Elath, and have dwelt there, unto this day.
7 Aa le nañitrike ìrak’ amy Tiglate-pilesere mpanjaka’ i Asore re, nanao ty hoe; Mpitoro’o naho ana’o iraho, mionjona mb’ etoa naho rombaho am-pitam-panjaka’ i Arame vaho am-pitam-panjaka’ Israele, ie fa nitroatse amako.
So Ahaz sent messengers unto Tiglath-pileser king of Assyria, saying, Thy servant and thy son, I am, —Come up and save me, out of the hand of the king of Syria, and out of the hand of the king of Israel, who are rising up against me.
8 Aa le rinambe’ i Ahkaze ty volafoty naho ty volamena nizoeñe añ’ anjomba’ Iehovà naho am-pañajam-bara añ’ anjombam-panjaka ao le nampisangitrife’e ho ravoravo amy mpanjaka’ i Asorey añe.
And Ahaz took the silver and the gold that was found in the house of Yahweh, and in the treasuries of the house of the king, —and sent them to the king of Assyria, as a bribe.
9 Nañaoñe aze ty mpanjaka’ i Asore le nionjomb’e Damesèke mb’eo ty mpanjaka’ i Asore nitavañe naho nendese’e an-drohy mb’e Kire mb’eo ondati’eo vaho zinevo’e t’i Retsine.
So the king of Assyria hearkened unto him, and the king of Assyria came up unto Damascus, and seized it, and carried away the people thereof captive to Kir, —and put Rezin, to death.
10 Nimb’e Damesèke mb’eo t’i Ahkaze hifampigaoñe amy Tiglate-pilesere mpanjaka’ i Asore, le niisa’e ty kitrely e Damesèk’ ao; le nampihitrife’ i Ahkaze mpanjaka amy Oriià mpisoroñe ty sare’ i kitreliy, naho ty vinta’e—ty fitseneañe aze iaby.
So then King Ahaz went to meet Tiglath-pileser king of Assyria, in Damascus, and saw the altar which was in Damascus, —and King Ahaz, sent unto Urijah the priest, a likeness of the altar, and a model thereof, according to all the workmanship thereof;
11 Aa le niranjie’ i Oriià i kitreliy; i nañitrifa’ i Ahkaze mpanjaka ama’e boake Damesèk’ añe ty nitsenea’ i Oriià mpisoroñe aze, vaho nimpoly boake Damesèke t’i Ahkaze mpanjaka.
and Urijah the priest built an altar, —according to all that King Ahaz sent from Damascus, so, did Urijah the priest make it, by the time King Ahaz came from Damascus.
12 Aa ie pok’ eo boake Damesèke i mpanjakay, nizoe’ i mpanjakay i kitreliy; le nitotok’ amy kitreliy i mpanjakay vaho nañenga ama’e;
And, when the king came from Damascus, then the king saw the altar, —so the king drew near unto the altar, and caused offerings to ascend thereupon.
13 nemboha’e i engan-koroa’ey, naho i engan-tsatrin’ arofo’ey, naho nadoa’e eo i enga ranoy, vaho nafitse’e amy kitreliy ty lio’ o engam-panintsiñañeo.
And he made perfume with his ascending-sacrifice, and with his meal-offering, and poured out his drink-offering, —and dashed the blood of the peace-offerings which he had, upon the altar.
14 Le navi’e boak’ aolo’ i anjombay i kitrely torisike añatrefa’ Iehovày, ie boak’ añivo’ i kitreli’ey naho i anjomba’ Iehovày, vaho napo’e avara’ i kitreli’ey eo.
And, the altar of bronze which was before Yahweh, he brought away from the forefront of the house, from between the altar, and the house of Yahweh, —and put it at the side of the altar northward.
15 Linili’ i Ahkaze mpanjaka t’i Oriià mpisoroñe, ami’ty hoe: Amy kitrely jabajabay ty isoroñañe maraindraiñe naho i enga-mahakama harivay naho i fisoroña’ i mpanjakaiy naho i enga-mahakama’ey naho o fonga fisoroña’ ondati’ i taneio naho o enga mahakama’ iareoo naho o enga-rano’ iareoo, le afitsezo ama’e iaby ty lio’ o soroñañe iabio naho ty lio’ ze hene engaeñe; fe ho ahy hañontaneako i kitrely torisikey.
And King Ahaz commanded Urijah the priest, saying—Upon the great altar, make thou perfume with the ascending-sacrifice of the morning, and with the meal-offering of the evening, and with the ascending-sacrifice of the king and with his meal-offering, and with the ascending-sacrifice of all the people of the land, and their meal-offering and their drink-offering, and, all the blood of the ascending-offering, and all the blood of the [peace] offering, thereupon, shalt thou dash, —but, the altar of bronze, shall be for me to inquire [into].
16 Aa le nanoe’ i Oriià mpisoroñe iaby ty nandilia’ i Ahkaze mpanjaka aze.
So Urijah the priest did according to all that King Ahaz commanded.
17 Tsinera’ i Ahkaze mpanjaka ty lifi’ o kalesio, le nakatra’e o kovetao; le nazotso’e boak’ amo añombe-torisike ambane’eo i sajoa-beiy vaho napo’e ambone vato linamake eo.
And King Ahaz cut off the side walls of the stands, and took away from off them the laver, and, the sea, took he down from off the oxen of bronze, which were under it, —and set it on a pavement of stones.
18 Le nafaha’e amy anjomba’ Iehovày i lampalampa niranjieñe amy anjombay ho amo Sabatao naho i fimoahañe mb’ añ’ anjombam-panjaka alafe’ey, ty amy mpanjaka’ i Asorey.
Also, the covered walk for the Sabbath, which they had built in the house, and the outer entrance for the king, he changed in the house of Yahweh, —because of the king of Assyria.
19 Aa naho o fitoloña’ i Ahkaze ila’e nanoe’eo, tsy fa sinokitse amy bokem-pamoliliañe o mpanjaka’ Iehodaoy hao?
Now, the rest of the story of Ahaz, what he did, is, it, not written in the book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah?
20 Le nitrao-piròtse aman-droae’e t’i Ahkaze naho nalenteke aman-droae’e an-drova’ i Davide ao vaho nandimbe aze nifehe t’i Kezkià ana’e.
And Ahaz slept with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers, in the city of David, —and, Hezekiah his son, reigned, in his stead.
