2 Madzimambo 15

1 Mugore ramakumi maviri namanomwe raJerobhoamu mambo weIsraeri, Azaria mwanakomana waAmazia mambo weJudha akatanga kutonga.

IN the twenty and seventh year of Jeroboam king of Israel began Azariah son of Amaziah king of Judah to reign.

2 Akanga ava namakore gumi namatanhatu paakava mambo, uye akatonga muJerusarema kwamakore makumi mashanu namaviri. Zita ramai vake rainzi Jekoria; vaibva muJerusarema.

Sixteen years old was he when he began to reign, and he reigned two and fifty years in Jerusalem. And his mother’s name was Jecholiah of Jerusalem.

3 Akaita zvakarurama pamberi paJehovha, sezvakanga zvaitwa nababa vake Amazia.

And he did that which was right in the sight of the Lord, according to all that his father Amaziah had done;

4 Kunyange zvakadaro, matunhu akakwirira haana kubviswa; vanhu vakaramba vachibayira zvibayiro nokupisa zvinonhuhwira ikoko.

Save that the high places were not removed: the people sacrificed and burnt incense still on the high places.

5 Jehovha akarova mambo namaperembudzi kusvikira pazuva raakafa, uye aigara mumba yake oga. Jotamu mwanakomana wamambo ndiye akanga ari mutariri womuzinda uye aitonga vanhu venyika iyoyo.

And the Lord smote the king, so that he was a leper unto the day of his death, and dwelt in a several house. And Jotham the king’s son was over the house, judging the people of the land.

6 Zvino zvimwe zvakaitika pakutonga kwaAzaria, nezvose zvaakaita, hazvina kunyorwa here mubhuku renhoroondo dzamadzimambo eJudha.

And the rest of the acts of Azariah, and all that he did, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?

7 Azaria akazorora namadzibaba ake akavigwa pedyo navo muGuta raDhavhidhi. Uye Jotamu mwanakomana wake akamutevera paumambo.

So Azariah slept with his fathers; and they buried him with his fathers in the city of David: and Jotham his son reigned in his stead.

8 Mugore ramakumi matatu namasere raAzaria mambo weJudha, Zekaria mwanakomana waJerobhoamu akava mambo weIsraeri muSamaria, uye akatonga kwemwedzi mitanhatu.

In the thirty and eighth year of Azariah king of Judah did Zachariah the son of Jeroboam reign over Israel in Samaria six months.

9 Akaita zvakaipa pamberi paJehovha, sezvakaitwa nababa vake. Haana kutendeuka kubva pazvivi zvaJerobhoamu mwanakomana waNebhati zvakaita kuti Israeri iite.

And he did that which was evil in the sight of the Lord, as his fathers had done: he departed not from the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, who made Israel to sin.

10 Sharumi mwanakomana waJabheshi akamukira Zekaria. Akamurwisa pamberi pavanhu, akamuuraya uye akamutevera paumambo.

And Shallum the son of Jabesh conspired against him, and smote him before the people, and slew him, and reigned in his stead.

11 Zvino zvimwe zvakaitika zvokutonga kwaZekaria zvakanyorwa mubhuku renhoroondo dzamadzimambo eIsraeri.

And the rest of the acts of Zachariah, behold, they are written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel.

12 Saka shoko raJehovha rakataurwa kuna Jehu richiti, “Vana vako vachagara pachigaro choushe chaIsraeri kusvikira kurudzi rwechina,” rakazadziswa.

This was the word of the Lord which he spake unto Jehu, saying, Thy sons shall sit on the throne of Israel unto the fourth generation. And so it came to pass.

13 Sharumi mwanakomana waJabheshi akava mambo mugore ramakumi matatu namapfumbamwe raUzia mambo weJudha, uye akatonga muSamaria kwomwedzi mumwe chete.

Shallum the son of Jabesh began to reign in the nine and thirtieth year of Uzziah king of Judah; and he reigned a full month in Samaria.

14 Ipapo Menahemi mwanakomana waGadhi akaenda kuSamaria achibva kuTiriza. Akarwisa Sharumi mwanakomana waJabheshi muSamaria, akamuuraya iye akamutevera paumambo.

For Menahem the son of Gadi went up from Tirzah, and came to Samaria, and smote Shallum the son of Jabesh in Samaria, and slew him, and reigned in his stead.

15 Zvino zvimwe zvakaitika pakutonga kwaSharumi, nokumukira kwaakatungamirira, zvakanyorwa mubhuku renhoroondo dzamadzimambo eIsraeri.

And the rest of the acts of Shallum, and his conspiracy which he made, behold, they are written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel.

16 Panguva iyoyo Menahemi, akarwisa Tifisa navose vaiva muguta nenzvimbo dzaiva pedyo, achitanga kubva paTiriza, nokuti vakanga varamba kuzarura masuo avo. Akaparadza Tifisa uye akatumbura vakadzi vaiva nemimba.

Then Menahem smote Tiphsah, and all that were therein, and the coasts thereof from Tirzah: because they opened not to him, therefore he smote it; and all the women therein that were with child he ripped up.

17 Mugore ramakumi matatu namapfumbamwe raAzaria mambo weJudha, Menahemi mwanakomana waGadhi akava mambo weIsraeri, uye akatonga muSamaria kwamakore gumi.

In the nine and thirtieth year of Azariah king of Judah began Menahem the son of Gadi to reign over Israel, and reigned ten years in Samaria.

18 Akaita zvakaipa pamberi paJehovha. Mumazuva ake ose okutonga haana kutendeuka kubva pazvivi zvaJerobhoamu mwanakomana waNebhati, zvaakaita kuti Israeri iite.

And he did that which was evil in the sight of the Lord: he departed not all his days from the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, who made Israel to sin.

19 Ipapo Puri mambo weAsiria akarwisa nyika, uye Menahemi akamupa chiuru chamatarenda esirivha, kuti awane rutsigiro agosimbisa umambo hwake.

And Pul the king of Assyria came against the land: and Menahem gave Pul a thousand talents of silver, that his hand might be with him to confirm the kingdom in his hand.

20 Menahemi akatora mari iyi somutero kubva kuIsraeri. Murume wose aiva mupfumi aibvisa makumi mashanu amashekeri esirivha kuti apiwe kuna mambo weAsiria. Saka mambo weAsiria akadzokera uye akasagarazve munyika.

And Menahem exacted the money of Israel, even of all the mighty men of wealth, of each man fifty shekels of silver, to give to the king of Assyria. So the king of Assyria turned back, and stayed not there in the land.

21 Zvino zvimwe zvakaitika pakutonga kwaMenahemi, nezvose zvaakaita, hazvina kunyorwa here mubhuku renhoroondo dzamadzimambo eIsraeri?

And the rest of the acts of Menahem, and all that he did, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?

22 Menahemi akazorora namadzibaba ake. Uye Pekahia mwanakomana wake akamutevera paumambo.

And Menahem slept with his fathers; and Pekahiah his son reigned in his stead.

23 Mugore ramakumi mashanu raAhazia mambo weJudha, Pekahia mwanakomana waMenahemi akava mambo weIsraeri muSamaria, akatonga kwamakore maviri.

In the fiftieth year of Azariah king of Judah Pekahiah the son of Menahem began to reign over Israel in Samaria, and reigned two years.

24 Pekahia akaita zvakaipa pamberi paJehovha. Haana kutendeuka kubva pazvivi zvaJerobhoamu mwanakomana waNebhati, zvaakaita kuti Israeri iite.

And he did that which was evil in the sight of the Lord: he departed not from the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, who made Israel to sin.

25 Mumwe wamakurukota ake, ainzi Peka mwanakomana waRemaria, akamumukira. Akatora varume makumi mashanu veGireadhi, akauraya Pekahia pamwe chete naArigobhi naArie, munhare yomuzinda wamambo weSamaria. Saka Peka akauraya Pekahia uye akamutevera paumambo.

But Pekah the son of Remaliah, a captain of his, conspired against him, and smote him in Samaria, in the palace of the king’s house, with Argob and Arieh, and with him fifty men of the Gileadites: and he killed him, and reigned in his room.

26 Zvimwe zvakaitika pakutonga kwaPekahia, nezvose zvaakaita zvakanyorwa mubhuku renhoroondo dzamadzimambo eIsraeri.

And the rest of the acts of Pekahiah, and all that he did, behold, they are written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel.

27 Mugore ramakumi mashanu namaviri raAzaria mambo weJudha, Peka, mwanakomana waRemaria, akava mambo weIsraeri muSamaria, uye akatonga kwamakore makumi maviri.

In the two and fiftieth year of Azariah king of Judah Pekah the son of Remaliah began to reign over Israel in Samaria, and reigned twenty years.

28 Akaita zvakaipa pamberi paJehovha. Haana kutendeuka kubva pazvivi zvaJerobhoamu mwanakomana waNebhati zvaakaita kuti Israeri iite.

And he did that which was evil in the sight of the Lord: he departed not from the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, who made Israel to sin.

29 Munguva yaPeka mambo weIsraeri, Tigirati-Pireseri mambo weAsiria akauya akatora Ijoni, Abheri Bheti Maaka, Janoa, Kedheshi neHazori. Akatora Gireadhi neGarirea pamwe chete nenyika dzose dzeNafutari uye akatakura vanhu akaenda navo kuAsiria senhapwa.

In the days of Pekah king of Israel came Tiglath-pileser king of Assyria, and took Ijon, and Abel-beth-maachah, and Janoah, and Kedesh, and Hazor, and Gilead, and Galilee, all the land of Naphtali, and carried them captive to Assyria.

30 Ipapo Hoshea mwanakomana waEra akamukira Peka, mwanakomana waRemario. Akamurwisa akamuuraya ndokubva amutorera umambo mugore ramakumi maviri raJotamu mwanakomana waUzia.

And Hoshea the son of Elah made a conspiracy against Pekah the son of Remaliah, and smote him, and slew him, and reigned in his stead, in the twentieth year of Jotham the son of Uzziah.

31 Zvimwe zvakaitika pakutonga kwaPeka, nezvaakaita iye, hazvina kunyorwa here mubhuku renhoroondo dzamadzimambo eIsraeri?

And the rest of the acts of Pekah, and all that he did, behold, they are written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel.

32 Mugore rechipiri raPeka mwanakomana waRemaria mambo weIsraeri, Jotamu mwanakomana waUzia mambo weJudha akatanga kutonga.

In the second year of Pekah the son of Remaliah king of Israel began Jotham the son of Uzziah king of Judah to reign.

33 Akanga ava namakore makumi maviri namashanu paakava mambo, uye akatonga muJerusarema kwamakore gumi namatanhatu. Zita ramai vake rainzi Jerusha, mwanasikana waZadhoki.

Five and twenty years old was he when he began to reign, and he reigned sixteen years in Jerusalem. And his mother’s name was Jerusha, the daughter of Zadok.

34 Akaita zvakarurama pamberi paJehovha, sezvakanga zvaitwa nababa vake Uzia.

And he did that which was right in the sight of the Lord: he did according to all that his father Uzziah had done.

35 Kunyange zvakadaro, matunhu akakwirira haana kubviswa, vanhu vakaramba vachibayira zvibayiro uye vachipisa zvinonhuhwira ikoko. Jotamu akavakazve Suo Rokumusoro retemberi yaJehovha.

Howbeit the high places were not removed: the people sacrificed and burned incense still in the high places. He built the higher gate of the house of the Lord.

36 Zvino zvimwe zvakaitika pakutonga kwaJotamu, nezvaakaita, hazvina kunyorwa here mubhuku renhoroondo dzamadzimambo eJudha?

Now the rest of the acts of Jotham, and all that he did, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?

37 (Mumazuva iwayo Jehovha akatanga kutuma Rezini mambo weAramu naPeka mwanakomana waRemaria kundorwisa Judha.)

In those days the Lord began to send against Judah Rezin the king of Syria, and Pekah the son of Remaliah.

38 Jotamu akazorora namadzibaba ake uye akavigwa pamwe chete navo muGuta raDhavhidhi, guta rababa vake. Ahazia mwanakomana wake akamutevera paumambo.

And Jotham slept with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers in the city of David his father: and Ahaz his son reigned in his stead.
