2 Makoronike 21
1 Ipapo Jehoshafati akazozorora namadzibaba ake akavigwa navo muguta raDhavhidhi uye Jehoramu mwanakomana wake akamutevera paumambo.
Now Jehoshaphat slept with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers in the city of David. And Jehoram his son reigned in his stead.
2 Vanunʼuna vaJehoramu vanakomana vaJehoshafati vaiti Azaria, Jehieri, Zekaria, Azariyahu, Mikaeri naShefatia. Vose ava vaiva vanakomana vaJehoshafati mambo weIsraeri.
And he had brethren the sons of Jehoshaphat, Azariah, and Jehiel, and Zechariah, and Azariah, and Michael, Shephatiah: all these [were] the sons of Jehoshaphat king of Israel.
3 Baba vavo vakanga vavapa zvipo zvakawanda zvesirivha negoridhe nezvinhu zvinokosha pamwe chete namaguta ana masvingo muJudha, asi akanga apa umambo kuna Jehoramu nokuti aiva mwanakomana wake wokutanga.
And their father gave them great gifts of silver, and of gold, and of precious things, with fortified cities in Judah: but the kingdom he gave to Jehoram; because he [was] the first-born.
4 Jehoramu paakazvisimbisa paumambo hwababa vake, akauraya vanunʼuna vake vose pamwe chete navamwe vana voumambo veIsraeri.
Now when Jehoram had risen to the kingdom of his father, he strengthened himself, and slew all his brethren with the sword, and [divers] also of the princes of Israel.
5 Jehoramu aiva namakore makumi matatu namaviri paakava mambo, uye akatonga muJerusarema kwamakore masere.
Jehoram [was] thirty and two years old when he began to reign, and he reigned eight years in Jerusalem.
6 Akafamba nenzira dzamadzimambo eIsraeri, sezvakanga zvaitwa neimba yaAhabhu nokuti akawana mwanasikana waAhabhu. Akaita zvakaipa pamberi paJehovha.
And he walked in the way of the kings of Israel, as did the house of Ahab: for he had the daughter of Ahab for a wife: and he wrought [that which was] evil in the eyes of the LORD.
7 Zvisinei hazvo, nokuda kwesungano yakanga yaitwa naJehovha naDhavhidhi, Jehovha haana kuda kuparadza imba yaDhavhidhi. Akanga avimbisa kuchengetedza mwenje wake nezvizvarwa zvake nokusingaperi.
Yet the LORD would not destroy the house of David, because of the covenant that he had made with David, and as he promised to give a light to him and to his sons for ever.
8 Panguva yaJehoramu, Edhomu yakapandukira Judha ikagadza mambo wayo.
In his days the Edomites revolted from under the dominion of Judah, and made themselves a king.
9 Saka Jehoramu akaendako namachinda ake nengoro dzake dzose. VaEdhomu vakamukomba navakuru vake nengoro dzake asi akasimuka akabuda pakati pavo nousiku.
Then Jehoram went forth with his princes, and all his chariots with him: and he rose by night, and smote the Edomites who encompassed him, and the captains of the chariots.
10 Kusvikira nhasi vaEdhomu vakaramba vakamukira Judha. Ribhina yakavamukirawo panguva imwe cheteyo, nokuti Jehoramu akanga arasa Jehovha, Mwari wamadzibaba ake.
So the Edomites revolted from under the hand of Judah to this day. The same time [also] did Libnah revolt from under his hand; because he had forsaken the LORD God of his fathers.
11 Akanga avakawo nzvimbo dzakakwirira pamakomo eJudha akaita kuti vanhu veJerusarema vaite upombwe akatungamirira Judha mukurasika.
Moreover, he made high places in the mountains of Judah, and caused the inhabitants of Jerusalem to commit fornication, and compelled Judah to [do the same].
12 Jehoramu akatambira tsamba kubva kuna muprofita Eria yaiti: “Zvanzi naJehovha, Mwari wababa vako Dhavhidhi: ‘Hauna kufamba munzira dzababa vako Jehoshafati kana dzaAsa mambo weJudha.
And there came a writing to him from Elijah the prophet, saying, Thus saith the LORD God of David thy father, Because thou hast not walked in the ways of Jehoshaphat thy father, nor in the ways of Asa king of Judah,
13 Asi wakafamba nomunzira dzamadzimambo eIsraeri uye wakatungamirira Judha navanhu vose veJerusarema mukuita upombwe sezvakaitwa neimba yaAhabhu. Wakaurayawo hama dzako, nhengo dzeimba yababa vako varume vakanga vari nani kupfuura iwe.
But hast walked in the way of the kings of Israel, and hast made Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem to commit idolatry, like the idolatries of the house of Ahab, and also hast slain thy brethren of thy father's house, [who were] better than thyself:
14 Saka zvino Jehovha ava kuda kuparadza vanhu vako, vanakomana vako, vakadzi vako nechose chinonzi ndechako, neshamhu inorema kwazvo.
Behold, with a great plague will the LORD smite thy people, and thy children, and thy wives, and all thy goods:
15 Iwewe pachako ucharwara zvikuru nechirwere chomuura, kusvikira chirwere ichi chaita kuti ura hwako hubude kunze.’”
And thou [shalt have] great sickness by disease of thy bowels, until thy bowels fall out by reason of the sickness day by day.
16 Jehovha akamutsa vaFiristia navaArabhu vaigara pedyo navaEtiopia kuti varwise Jehoramu.
Moreover, the LORD stirred up against Jehoram the spirit of the Philistines, and of the Arabians, that [were] near the Cushites.
17 Vakarwisa Judha, vakaipamba vakatakura zvinhu zvose zvavakawana mumuzinda wamambo pamwe chete navanakomana vake navakadzi vake. Hakuna mwanakomana mumwe chete akasiyiwa kwaari kunze kwaAhazia mudiki pane vose.
And they came up into Judah, and broke into it, and carried away all the substance that was found in the king's house, and his sons also, and his wives; so that there was not a son left to him, save Jehoahaz the youngest of his sons.
18 Shure kwaizvozvi zvose, Jehovha akarwadzisa Jehoramu nechirwere chisingarapike choura.
And after all this the LORD smote him in his bowels with an incurable disease.
19 Nokufamba kwenguva mukupera kwegore rechipiri maura ake akabuda kunze nokuda kwechirwere ichi, uye akafa achirwadziwa zvikuru. Vanhu vose havana kuvesa moto wokumuremekedza sezvavakanga vaitira baba vake.
And it came to pass, that in process of time, after the end of two years, his bowels fell out by reason of his sickness: so he died of severe diseases. And his people made no burning for him, like the burning of his fathers.
20 Jehoramu aiva namakore makumi matatu namaviri paakava mambo uye akatonga muJerusarema kwamakore masere. Paakafa hapana akarwadziwa nokufa kwake, akavigwa muguta raDhavhidhi asi kwete kumakuva amadzimambo.
Thirty and two years old was he when he began to reign, and he reigned in Jerusalem, eight years, and departed without being desired: yet they buried him in the city of David, but not in the sepulchers of the kings.
