Taariikhdii Labaad 21
1 Oo Yehooshaafaadna wuu dhintay oo la seexday awowayaashiis, oo waxaa awowayaashiis lagula aasay magaaladii Daa'uud, oo meeshiisiina waxaa boqor ka noqday wiilkiisii Yehooraam.
Then Jehoshaphat died, and was buried where his ancestors were buried in [the part of Jerusalem called] ‘The City of David’. Then his son Jehoram became the king [of Judah].
2 Oo isna wuxuu lahaa walaalo oo ahaa ilma Yehooshaafaad, waana Casaryaah, iyo Yexii'eel, iyo Sekaryaah, iyo Casaryaah, iyo Miikaa'eel, iyo Shefatyaah, oo intaas oo dhammu waxay ahaayeen ilma Yehooshaafaad kii ahaa boqorkii dalka Israa'iil.
His [younger] brothers were Azariah, Jehiel, Zechariah, Azariah, Michael, and Shephatiah.
3 Oo aabbahoodna wuxuu iyagii siiyey hadiyado waaweyn oo ah lacag, iyo dahab, iyo waxyaalo qaali ah, oo weliba wuxuu ugu daray magaalooyin deyr leh oo dalka Yahuudah ku yaal, laakiinse boqortooyadii wuxuu siiyey Yehooraam, maxaa yeelay, wuxuu ahaa curadkiisii.
Before Jehoshaphat died, he gave them gifts of silver and gold and other valuable things. He also appointed them to rule various cities in Judah that had walls around them. But he appointed Jehoram to be the king of Judah, because Jehoram was his oldest son.
4 Haddaba Yehooraam markuu boqortooyadii aabbihiis fuulay oo uu aad u xoogaystay ayuu walaalihiis oo dhan seef ku laayay, iyaga iyo kuwo kale oo ah amiirradii dadka Israa'iil.
After Jehoram was completely in control of his father’s kingdom, he had all of his [younger] brothers executed, along with some of the leaders of the nation.
5 Oo Yehooraam markuu boqor noqday wuxuu jiray laba iyo soddon sannadood, siddeed sannadoodna boqor buu ku ahaa Yeruusaalem.
Jehoram was 32 years old when he became the king, and he ruled in Jerusalem for eight years.
6 Oo wuxuu ku socday jidkii ay boqorradii dalka Israa'iil mareen, sidii reerkii Axaab yeelay oo kale, waayo, wuxuu qabay Axaab gabadhiisii, oo wuxuu sameeyey wax Rabbiga hortiisa shar ku ah.
But he did many of the [evil] things that the kings of Israel had done. He did many things that Yahweh considers to be evil, things that the family of Ahab had done, because he married one of Ahab’s daughters.
7 Habase yeeshee Rabbigu ma uu doonaynin inuu baabbi'iyo reerkii Daa'uud, maxaa yeelay, axdi wuu la dhigtay, oo wuxuu u ballanqaaday inuu isaga iyo carruurtiisa had iyo goorba laambad siiyo.
However, because of the agreement that Yahweh had made with King David, Yahweh did not want to get rid of the descendants of David. He had promised that David’s descendants would always be the ones who ruled Judah.
8 Oo wakhtigiisii ayaa reer Edom ka fallaagoobay dadka Yahuudah, oo iyana waxay yeesheen boqor u taliya.
While Jehoram was ruling, the people of [the] Edom [region] rebelled against [the king of] Judah and appointed their own king.
9 Markaasaa Yehooraam soo gudbay isagoo wata saraakiishiisii iyo gaadhifardoodkiisii oo dhan, oo intuu habeennimo kacay ayuu laayay reer Edom oo hareereeyey isaga iyo saraakiishiisii gaadhifardoodka.
So Jehoram and his officers and his men in chariots went to Edom. There, the army of Edom surrounded them. Jehoram escaped during the night.
10 Reer Edomna way ka fallaagoobeen oo way ka hoos baxeen gacantii dadka Yahuudah ilaa maantadan la joogo. Oo haddana isla markaasba waxaa kaloo ka fallaagoobay oo gacantiisii ka hoos baxay reer Libnaah, maxaa yeelay, isagu wuxuu ka tegey Rabbigii ahaa Ilaaha awowayaashiis.
But the king of Judah was never able to regain control of Edom, and Edom is still not controlled by Judah. [The people in] Libnah [city between Judah and Philistia] also rebelled against Judah. Those things happened because Jehoram turned away from [obeying] Yahweh, the God whom his ancestors [belonged to].
11 Oo weliba wuxuu buuraha dalka Yahuudah ka sameeyey meelo sarsare, oo dadkii Yeruusaalem degganaana wuxuu ka dhigay inay sanamyo raacaan, oo dadkii Yahuudahna wuu habaabiyey.
On the hilltops in Judah he had also built shrines [to worship idols], and had caused the people of Judah to stray away from Yahweh by worshiping foreign gods.
12 Oo waxaa isagii u timid qorniin laga keenay Nebi Eliiyaah, oo leh, Rabbiga aabbahaa Daa'uud Ilaahiisa ahu wuxuu leeyahay, Adigu kuma aadan socon jidadkii aabbahaa Yehooshaafaad maray iyo jidadkii Aasaa oo boqorka dalka Yahuudah ahaa uu maray toona,
One day, Jehoram received a letter from the prophet Elijah. Elijah had written this in the letter: “This is what Yahweh, the God whom your ancestor [King] David [worshiped], says: 'You have not done things that please me like your father Jehoshaphat did or what King Asa did.
13 laakiinse waxaad ku socotay jidkii boqorrada dalka Israa'iil, oo dadkii Yahuudah iyo dadkii Yeruusaalem degganaaba waxaad ka dhigtay inay sanamyo raacaan sidii reerkii Axaab yeelay oo kale, oo weliba waxaad laysay walaalahaa oo reerka aabbahaa ka mid ahaa oo kaa wanaagsanaa,
Instead, you have continually done the [evil things] that the kings of Israel have done. You have encouraged the people in Jerusalem and other places in Judah to stop worshiping Yahweh, like the descendants of Ahab did. You have also murdered your own brothers, who were more righteous men than you are.
14 haddaba sidaas daraaddeed bal eeg, Rabbigu belaayo weyn ayuu ku dhufan doonaa dadkaaga, iyo carruurtaada, iyo naagahaaga, iyo xoolahaaga oo dhanba.
So now Yahweh is about to very severely punish the people in your kingdom and even your own children and your wives and everything that you own.
15 Oo adigana waxaa kugu dhici doona cudur weyn oo xiidmahaaga ayaa bukan doona, ilaa xiidmahaagu ay kaa soo dhacaan maalin ka maalin cudurka aad qabto daraaddiis.
And you yourself will have an intestinal disease that will continue to become worse, and you will suffer from it until you die.'”
16 Markaasaa Rabbigu wuxuu Yehooraam ku soo kiciyey reer Falastiin iyo reer Carabta oo ag joogay reer Itoobiya.
Then Yahweh caused some men from the Philistia people-group and some Arabs who lived near the coast [of the Mediterranean Sea], where people from Ethiopia had settled, to become angry with Jehoram.
17 Oo waxay ku soo kaceen dalka Yahuudah, oo way burburiyeen, waxayna wada qaateen maalkii guriga boqorka yiil oo dhan, iyo weliba wiilashiisii iyo naagihiisii, sidaas daraaddeed wiilna uma hadhin isagii kii wiilashiisa ugu yaraa oo Yehoo'aaxaas la odhan jiray mooyaane.
Their army invaded Judah and took away [from Jerusalem] all the valuable things that they found in the king’s palace, and even his sons and wives. His youngest son, Ahaziah, was the only one of his sons whom they did not take away.
18 Oo waxaas oo dhan dabadood Rabbigu wuxuu isaga xiidmihiisii ku dhuftay cudur aan la bogsiin karin.
After that happened, Yahweh caused Jehoram to be afflicted with an intestinal disease that no one could cure.
19 Oo wakhtigii waa iska socday, oo laba sannadood dabadood waxay noqotay in xiidmihiisii la soo dhacay cudurkii uu qabay daraaddiis, oo wuxuu u dhintay cudurro xunxun. Oo dadkiisiina isaga dab uguma ay shidin siday awowayaashiis dab ugu sharfi jireen oo kale.
About two years later, while he was in great pain, he died because of that disease. The people of Judah had made bonfires to honor his ancestors when they died, but they did not make a bonfire for Jehoram.
20 Oo markuu boqor noqday wuxuu jiray laba iyo soddon sannadood, oo Yeruusaalemna boqor buu ku ahaa siddeed sannadood, oo wuxuu tegey oo dhintay isagoo aan la jeclayn, oo waxaa lagu aasay magaalada Daa'uud, laakiinse laguma aasin qabuurihii boqorrada.
Jehoram was 32 years old when he became the king, and he ruled in Jerusalem for eight years. No one was sorry when he died. His corpse was buried in [the part of Jerusalem called] ‘The City of David’, but he was not buried where the other kings [of Judah] had been buried.
