2 Mpanjaka 17
1 An-taom-paha folo-ro’ ambi’ i Ahkaze mpanjaka’ Iehodày ty niorota’ i Hosea ana’ i Elà nifehe Israele e Somerone ao sive taoñe.
In the twelfth year of Ahaz king of Judah, Hoshea the son of Elah began to reign in Samaria over Israel for nine years.
2 Le nanoe’e haratiañe am-pivazohoa’ Iehovà, f’ie tsy nanahake o mpanjaka’ Israele taolo’eo.
He did that which was evil in the LORD’s sight, yet not as the kings of Israel who were before him.
3 Nionjomb’ ama’e mb’eo t’i Salmanesere mpanjaka’ i Asore; le ninjare mpitoro’e t’i Hosea vaho nandroroñe ama’e.
Shalmaneser king of Assyria came up against him; and Hoshea became his servant, and brought him tribute.
4 Fe nahaoniñe kilily amy Hosea ty mpanjaka’ i Asore, amy te nañitrifa’e ìrake t’i So, mpanjaka’ i Mitsraime vaho tsy ninday rorotse amy mpanjaka’ i Asorey manahake ty lili’e boa-taoñe; aa le narindri’e an-drohy am-porozò ao.
The king of Assyria discovered a conspiracy in Hoshea; for he had sent messengers to So king of Egypt, and offered no tribute to the king of Assyria, as he had done year by year. Therefore the king of Assyria seized him, and bound him in prison.
5 Nionjomb’eo nanitsike i tane iabiy ty mpanjaka’ i Asore le nigodañe mb’e Somerone vaho niarikatok’ aze telo taoñe.
Then the king of Assyria came up throughout all the land, went up to Samaria, and besieged it three years.
6 Amy taom-paha sive’ i Hoseay, le naname i Somerone ty mpanjaka’ i Asore vaho nendese’e mb’e Asore mb’ eo t’Israele le napo’e e Kalake vaho e Kabore marine ty rano Gozane an-drova’ o nte-Madaio añe.
In the ninth year of Hoshea the king of Assyria took Samaria and carried Israel away to Assyria, and placed them in Halah, and on the Habor, the river of Gozan, and in the cities of the Medes.
7 Toly amy zao ty hakeo’ o ana’ Israeleo amy Iehovà Andrianañahare’ iareo, i nañakats’ iareo an-tane’ Mitsraime boak’ am-pità’ i Parò mpanjaka’ i Mitsraimey, ie nañeveñe amo ‘ndrahare ila’eo
It was so because the children of Israel had sinned against the LORD their God, who brought them up out of the land of Egypt from under the hand of Pharaoh king of Egypt, and had feared other gods,
8 naho nañavelo am-pañè’ o kilakila’ ondaty rinoa’ Iehovà añatrefa’ o ana’ Israeleoo vaho ty amo sata’ o mpanjaka’ Israeleo.
and walked in the statutes of the nations whom the LORD cast out from before the children of Israel, and of the kings of Israel, which they made.
9 Nanoe’ o ana’ Israeleo am’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’ iareo añ’etak’ ao o tsy havokarañeo, nandranjy toets’ abo an-drova’ iareo iaby, boak’ am-pitalakesañ’ abo pak’ an-drova mifahetse.
The children of Israel secretly did things that were not right against the LORD their God; and they built high places for themselves in all their cities, from the tower of the watchmen to the fortified city;
10 Naho najado’ iareo amy ze atao haboañe naho ambane’ ze hatae mandrevake iaby o Aserào naho o hazomangao;
and they set up for themselves pillars and Asherah poles on every high hill and under every green tree;
11 le nañembok’ ao manahake o kilakila’ ondaty sinoi’ Iehovà aolo’ iareoo, vaho nandranjy raha tsereheñe hampiviñetse Iehovà;
and there they burned incense in all the high places, as the nations whom the LORD carried away before them did; and they did wicked things to provoke the LORD to anger;
12 ie nitoroñe o hazomanga nafè’ Iehovà am’ iereoo ty hoe: Ko manao zao.
and they served idols, of which the LORD had said to them, “You shall not do this thing.”
13 Mbore nanjehazehà’ Iehovà t’Israele naho Iehodà, añamo mpitokio naho o mpioniñe iabio, ami’ty hoe: Iambohò o sata rati’ areoo, naho ambeno o fepèkoo naho o fañèko amy Hake liniliko an-droae’ areo vaho nampihitrifeko ama’ areo am-pità’ o mpitoky mpitorokooy.
Yet the LORD testified to Israel and to Judah, by every prophet and every seer, saying, “Turn from your evil ways, and keep my commandments and my statutes, according to all the law which I commanded your fathers, and which I sent to you by my servants the prophets.”
14 Fe tsy hinao’ iereo, te mone nampijiringàm-pititia, manahake o fititian-droae’ iareoo, ie mboe lia’e tsy niato amy Iehovà Andrianañahare’ iareo.
Notwithstanding, they would not listen, but hardened their neck like the neck of their fathers who didn’t believe in the LORD their God.
15 Natorifi’ iereo o fañè’eo naho i nifañinà’e aman-droae’ iareoy naho o taroñe nizehazehà’e am’ iereoo; nañorike hakoahañe iereo naho ninjare kòake, le nañorike o kilakila’ ndaty nañohoke iareoo; o nafanto’ Iehovà am’ iereoo te tsy itsikombeañe.
They rejected his statutes and his covenant that he made with their fathers, and his testimonies which he testified to them; and they followed vanity, and became vain, and followed the nations that were around them, concerning whom the LORD had commanded them that they should not do like them.
16 Nado’ iareo ze hene lili’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’ iareo, naho nampitranahe’ iareo Aserà, naho bania roe, naho nampitroatse hazomanga naho nitalaho amy valobohòn-dindiñey, vaho nitoroñe i Baale.
They abandoned all the commandments of the LORD their God, and made molten images for themselves, even two calves, and made an Asherah, and worshiped all the army of the sky, and served Baal.
17 Nampirangae’ iereo añ’ afo o ana-dahy naho anak’ ampela’ iareoo, naho nanikily vaho namoreke, le nandeta-batañe hanao haloloañe am-pivazohoa’ Iehovà hiviñera’e.
They caused their sons and their daughters to pass through the fire, used divination and enchantments, and sold themselves to do that which was evil in the LORD’s sight, to provoke him to anger.
18 Aa le niviñera’ Iehovà t’Israele vaho nafaha’e am-pivazohoa’e; leo raike tsy napo’e naho tsy i fifokoa’ Iehodày avao.
Therefore the LORD was very angry with Israel, and removed them out of his sight. There was none left but the tribe of Judah only.
19 Toe tsy nambena’ Iehoda ka o lili’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’ iareoo te mone nañavelo amo fañè’ nitoloña’ Israeleo.
Also Judah didn’t keep the commandments of the LORD their God, but walked in the statutes of Israel which they made.
20 Fonga naforintse’ Iehovà ty tarira’ Israele, le nampisotrie’e naho natolo’e am-pitam-pamaoke vaho nahifi’e boak’ am-pivazohoa’e.
The LORD rejected all the offspring of Israel, afflicted them, and delivered them into the hands of raiders, until he had cast them out of his sight.
21 Rinia’e boak’ añ’ anjomba’ i Davide ao iereo; le nanoe’ iereo mpanjaka t’Iarovame ana’ i Nebate, le nasinta’ Iarovame tsy hañorike Iehovà t’Israele, ie nampanaña’e hakeo jabajaba.
For he tore Israel from David’s house; and they made Jeroboam the son of Nebat king; and Jeroboam drove Israel from following the LORD, and made them sin a great sin.
22 Fonga nañavelo amo tahi’ Iarovameo; tsy nisitaha’ iareo;
The children of Israel walked in all the sins of Jeroboam which he did; they didn’t depart from them
23 ampara’ te nasinta’ Iehovà am-pivazohoa’e t’Israele, amy tsinara’e am-pità’ ze hene mpitoky mpitoro’ey. Aa le nasese an-drohy boak’ an-tane’e ao t’Israele, mb’e Asore añe am-para’ te henane.
until the LORD removed Israel out of his sight, as he said by all his servants the prophets. So Israel was carried away out of their own land to Assyria to this day.
24 Ninday ondaty boak’e Bavele naho Kote, naho Avà, naho Kamate, naho Sefarvaine añe ty mpanjaka’ i Asore, vaho navotra’e amo rova’ i Someroneo handimbe Israele; le nifanaña’ iareo t’i Somerone vaho nimoneñe amo rova’eo.
The king of Assyria brought people from Babylon, from Cuthah, from Avva, and from Hamath and Sepharvaim, and placed them in the cities of Samaria instead of the children of Israel; and they possessed Samaria and lived in its cities.
25 Ie namototse nimoneñe ao, naho mboe tsy nañeveñe am’ Iehovà, le nañiraha’ Iehovà liona nanjevoñe ty ila’e.
So it was, at the beginning of their dwelling there, that they didn’t fear the LORD. Therefore the LORD sent lions among them, which killed some of them.
26 Aa le nanao ty hoe amy mpanjaka’ i Asorey iereo: Tsy fohi’ ze kilakila ‘ndaty navì’o naho navotra’o amo rova’ i Someroneo ty lilin’ Andrianañahare’ i taney; toly ndra nañiraha’e liona, le inao, ie tsy mahafohiñe o lilin’ Añahare’ i taneio ty namonoa’ o lionao.
Therefore they spoke to the king of Assyria, saying, “The nations which you have carried away and placed in the cities of Samaria don’t know the law of the god of the land. Therefore he has sent lions among them; and behold, they kill them, because they don’t know the law of the god of the land.”
27 Le hoe ty nandilia’ i mpanjaka’ i Asorey: Andeso mpisoroñe raike hirik’ amo nasese’ areo boak’aoo; le ampom-bao mb’eo himoneñe ao hañòke iareo ty lilin’ Andrianañahare’ i taney.
Then the king of Assyria commanded, saying, “Carry there one of the priests whom you brought from there; and let him go and dwell there, and let him teach them the law of the god of the land.”
28 Aa le nimb’ eo ty raik’ amo mpisoroñe nendeseñe boake Someroneo le nimoneñe e Betele ao, vaho nanare’e ty hañeveñe am’ Iehovà.
So one of the priests whom they had carried away from Samaria came and lived in Bethel, and taught them how they should fear the LORD.
29 Fe fonga namboatse ty ‘ndrahare’e i fifeheañe rey, le napo’e amo toets’ abo rinanji’ o nte-Someroneoo, songa fifeheañe an-drova nimoneña’e ao.
However every nation made gods of their own, and put them in the houses of the high places which the Samaritans had made, every nation in their cities in which they lived.
30 Namboare’ o nte-Baveleo ty Sokote-benote, naho namboare’ o nte-Koseo t’i Nergale, naho namboare’ o nte-Kamateo ty Asimae;
The men of Babylon made Succoth Benoth, and the men of Cuth made Nergal, and the men of Hamath made Ashima,
31 naho namboare’ o nte-Avìo ty Nibkaze naho i Tartake vaho sinodo’ o nte-Sefarvaineo amy Adrameleke naho i Anameleke, ‘ndrahare’ o nte-Sefarvaimeo, añ’afo ao o ana’ iareoo.
and the Avvites made Nibhaz and Tartak; and the Sepharvites burned their children in the fire to Adrammelech and Anammelech, the gods of Sepharvaim.
32 Mbore nañeveñe amy Iehovà, mbore noriza’ iareo boak’ am’ iareo ao ty mpisoron-toets’ abo hitoloñe amo kibohon-toets’ aboo ho a iareo.
So they feared the LORD, and also made from among themselves priests of the high places for themselves, who sacrificed for them in the houses of the high places.
33 Nañondrañe am’ Iehovà iereo mbore nitoroñe o ‘ndrahare’ iareoo, ami’ty sata’ o kilakila’ndaty nañakarañe iareo boak’ am-pandrohizañe añeo.
They feared the LORD, and also served their own gods, after the ways of the nations from among whom they had been carried away.
34 Mbe mañorike ty sata’ iareo taolo pak’ androany, tsy añeveña’ iareo t’Iehovà, tsy ambena’ iareo o fañè’eo naho o fepè’eo naho i Tsara’ey vaho o fepètse linili’ Iehovà o ana’ Iakobe nikanjie’e ty hoe Israeleoo;
To this day they do what they did before. They don’t fear the LORD, and they do not follow the statutes, or the ordinances, or the law, or the commandment which the LORD commanded the children of Jacob, whom he named Israel;
35 ie nanoa’ Iehovà fañina, vaho nafanto’e am’iereo ty hoe; Ko hembañe amo ‘ndrahare ila’eo, ko ibokobokoañe ndra itoroñañe, ndra isoroñañe;
with whom the LORD had made a covenant and commanded them, saying, “You shall not fear other gods, nor bow yourselves to them, nor serve them, nor sacrifice to them;
36 fa Iehovà nañakatse anahareo an-tane Mitsraime an-kaozaran-dra’elahy naho am-pitàñe natorakitsi’e, Ie ty añeveña’ areo, le Ie ty italahoa’ areo vaho Ie ty hisoroña’ areo;
but you shall fear the LORD, who brought you up out of the land of Egypt with great power and with an outstretched arm, and you shall bow yourselves to him, and you shall sacrifice to him.
37 le o fañèo naho o fepètseo naho i Hake vaho o lily sinoki’e ama’ areoo ro hambena’ areo hanoeñe nainai’e; fa tsy añeveñañe o ‘ndrahare ila’eo;
The statutes and the ordinances, and the law and the commandment which he wrote for you, you shall observe to do forever more. You shall not fear other gods.
38 le ko haliño i fañina nanoeko ama’ areoy; vaho ko hembañe amo ‘ndrahare ila’eo;
You shall not forget the covenant that I have made with you. You shall not fear other gods.
39 Iehovà Andrianañahare’ areo avao ty añeveña’ areo; le Ie ty hamotsotse anahareo am-pità’ o fonga rafelahio.
But you shall fear the LORD your God, and he will deliver you out of the hand of all your enemies.”
40 F’ie tsy nañaoñe, te mone nanao ty nahazatse.
However they didn’t listen, but they did what they did before.
41 Aa le nañeveñe am’ Iehovà o fifeheañeo mbore nitoroñe o hazomanga’ iareoo; orihe’ o ana’eo naho o anan’ ana’eo ty satan-droae’ iareo pak’androany.
So these nations feared the LORD, and also served their engraved images. Their children did likewise, and so did their children’s children. They do as their fathers did to this day.
