2 Wafalme 17
1 Katika mwaka wa kumi na mbili wa utawala wa Ahazi mfalme wa Yuda, Hoshea mwana wa Ela akawa mfalme wa Israeli katika Samaria, akatawala kwa miaka tisa.
in/on/with year two ten to/for Ahaz king Judah to reign Hoshea son: child Elah in/on/with Samaria upon Israel nine year
2 Akafanya maovu machoni pa Bwana, lakini si kama wafalme wengine wa Israeli waliomtangulia.
and to make: do [the] bad: evil in/on/with eye: seeing LORD except not like/as king Israel which to be to/for face: before his
3 Mfalme Shalmanesa wa Ashuru akainuka dhidi ya Mfalme Hoshea, ambaye hapo mbeleni alikuwa mtumwa wake na kumlipa ushuru.
upon him to ascend: rise Shalmaneser king Assyria and to be to/for him Hoshea servant/slave and to return: pay to/for him offering: tribute
4 Lakini mfalme wa Ashuru akagundua kuwa Hoshea alikuwa msaliti, kwa kuwa alikuwa ametuma wajumbe kwa So mfalme wa Misri, naye hakuendelea kulipa ushuru kwa mfalme wa Ashuru tena kama alivyokuwa anafanya kila mwaka. Kwa hiyo Shalmanesa akamkamata na kumtia gerezani.
and to find king Assyria in/on/with Hoshea conspiracy which to send: depart messenger to(wards) So king Egypt and not to ascend: offer up offering: tribute to/for king Assyria like/as year in/on/with year and to restrain him king Assyria and to bind him house: home prison
5 Mfalme wa Ashuru akaishambulia nchi yote, akapigana dhidi ya Samaria na kuizunguka kwa majeshi miaka mitatu.
and to ascend: rise king Assyria in/on/with all [the] land: country/planet and to ascend: rise Samaria and to confine upon her three year
6 Katika mwaka wa tisa wa Hoshea, mfalme wa Ashuru akaiteka Samaria na kuwahamishia Waisraeli huko Ashuru. Akawaweka huko Hala, na Gozani karibu na Mto Habori, na katika miji ya Wamedi.
in/on/with year [the] ninth to/for Hoshea to capture king Assyria [obj] Samaria and to reveal: remove [obj] Israel Assyria [to] and to dwell [obj] them in/on/with Halah and in/on/with Habor river Gozan and city Mede
7 Yote haya yalitokea kwa sababu Waisraeli walikuwa wametenda dhambi dhidi ya Bwana Mungu wao, ambaye alikuwa amewapandisha kutoka Misri akiwatoa chini ya utawala wa nguvu wa Farao mfalme wa Misri. Waliabudu miungu mingine
and to be for to sin son: descendant/people Israel to/for LORD God their [the] to ascend: establish [obj] them from land: country/planet Egypt from underneath: owning hand: owner Pharaoh king Egypt and to fear: revere God another
8 na kufuata desturi za mataifa ambayo Bwana alikuwa ameyafukuza mbele yao, pamoja na desturi ambazo wafalme wa Israeli walizileta.
and to go: walk in/on/with statute [the] nation which to possess: take LORD from face: before son: descendant/people Israel and king Israel which to make: do
9 Waisraeli wakafanya vitu kwa siri dhidi ya Bwana Mungu wao, ambavyo havikuwa sawa. Kuanzia kwenye mnara wa ulinzi hadi kwenye mji wenye maboma walijijengea wenyewe mahali pa juu pa kuabudia miungu katika miji yao yote.
and to do secretly son: descendant/people Israel word: thing which not right upon LORD God their and to build to/for them high place in/on/with all city their from tower to watch till city fortification
10 Wakaweka mawe ya kuabudiwa na nguzo za Ashera juu ya kila kilima kirefu na chini ya kila mti uliotanda.
and to stand to/for them pillar and Asherah upon all hill high and underneath: under all tree luxuriant
11 Wakafukiza uvumba kila mahali palipoinuka, kama yalivyofanya yale mataifa ambayo Bwana alikuwa ameyafukuza mbele yao. Wakafanya mambo maovu ambayo yalimghadhibisha Bwana.
and to offer: offer there in/on/with all high place like/as nation which to reveal: remove LORD from face: before their and to make: do word: thing bad: evil to/for to provoke [obj] LORD
12 Wakaabudu sanamu, ingawa Bwana alikuwa amesema, “Msifanye mambo haya.”
and to serve: minister [the] idol which to say LORD to/for them not to make: do [obj] [the] word: thing [the] this
13 Bwana akawaonya Israeli na Yuda kupitia kwa manabii na waonaji wake wote: “Acheni njia zenu mbaya. Shikeni amri na maagizo yangu, kufuatana na sheria yangu yote niliyowaagiza baba zenu kuitii ambayo niliileta kwenu kupitia kwa watumishi wangu manabii.”
and to testify LORD in/on/with Israel and in/on/with Judah in/on/with hand: by all (prophet *Q(K)*) all seer to/for to say to return: turn back from way: conduct your [the] bad: evil and to keep: obey commandment my statute my like/as all [the] instruction which to command [obj] father your and which to send: depart to(wards) you in/on/with hand: by servant/slave my [the] prophet
14 Lakini hawakusikiliza, walikuwa na shingo ngumu kama baba zao, ambao hawakumtegemea Bwana Mungu wao.
and not to hear: hear and to harden [obj] neck their like/as neck father their which not be faithful in/on/with LORD God their
15 Walizikataa amri zake, na agano alilokuwa amelifanya na baba zao, na maonyo aliyokuwa amewapa. Wakafuata sanamu zisizofaa, nao wenyewe wakawa hawafai. Wakayaiga mataifa yaliyowazunguka, ingawa Bwana alikuwa amewaonya akiwaambia, “Msifanye kama wanavyofanya,” nao wakafanya mambo ambayo Bwana alikuwa amewakataza wasifanye.
and to reject [obj] statute: decree his and [obj] covenant his which to cut: make(covenant) with father their and [obj] testimony his which to testify in/on/with them and to go: follow after [the] vanity and to become vain and after [the] nation which around them which to command LORD [obj] them to/for lest to make: do like/as them
16 Wakayaacha maagizo yote ya Bwana Mungu wao na kujitengenezea sanamu mbili, walizozisubu katika sura ya ndama na nguzo ya Ashera. Wakasujudia mianga yote ya angani, na wakamtumikia Baali.
and to leave: forsake [obj] all commandment LORD God their and to make to/for them liquid (two *Q(K)*) calf and to make Asherah and to bow to/for all army [the] heaven and to serve: minister [obj] [the] Baal
17 Wakawatoa kafara wana wao na mabinti zao katika moto. Wakafanya uaguzi na uchawi, nao wakajiuza wenyewe katika kutenda uovu machoni pa Bwana, wakamghadhibisha.
and to pass [obj] son: child their and [obj] daughter their in/on/with fire and to divine divination and to divine and to sell to/for to make: do [the] bad: evil in/on/with eye: seeing LORD to/for to provoke him
18 Basi Bwana akawakasirikia sana Israeli na kuwaondoa kwenye uwepo wake. Ni kabila la Yuda tu lililobaki;
and be angry LORD much in/on/with Israel and to turn aside: remove them from upon face his not to remain except tribe Judah to/for alone him
19 na hata hivyo nao Yuda hawakuzishika amri za Bwana Mungu wao. Wakafuata desturi ambazo Israeli walikuwa wamezianzisha.
also Judah not to keep: obey [obj] commandment LORD God their and to go: walk in/on/with statute Israel which to make
20 Kwa hiyo Bwana aliwakataa watu wote wa Israeli; akawatesa na kuwaachia katika mikono ya wateka nyara hadi alipowaondoa kutoka kwenye uwepo wake.
and to reject LORD in/on/with all seed: children Israel and to afflict them and to give: give them in/on/with hand: power to plunder till which to throw them from face his
21 Alipokwisha kuwatenga Israeli mbali na nyumba ya Daudi, wakamfanya Yeroboamu mwana wa Nebati kuwa mfalme wao. Yeroboamu akawashawishi Israeli waache kumfuata Bwana na akawasababisha kutenda dhambi kuu.
for to tear Israel from upon house: household David and to reign [obj] Jeroboam son: child Nebat (and to banish *Q(K)*) Jeroboam [obj] Israel from after LORD and to sin them sin great: large
22 Nao Israeli wakadumu katika dhambi zote za Yeroboamu mwana wa Nebati, nao hawakuziacha
and to go: walk son: descendant/people Israel in/on/with all sin Jeroboam which to make: do not to turn aside: depart from her
23 hadi Bwana alipowaondoa kutoka kwenye uwepo wake, kama vile alivyokuwa ameonya kupitia watumishi wake wote manabii. Hivyo watu wa Israeli wakaondolewa kutoka nchi yao kwenda uhamishoni Ashuru, nao wako huko mpaka sasa.
till which to turn aside: remove LORD [obj] Israel from upon face his like/as as which to speak: speak in/on/with hand: by all servant/slave his [the] prophet and to reveal: remove Israel from upon land: soil his Assyria [to] till [the] day [the] this
24 Mfalme wa Ashuru akawaleta watu kutoka Babeli, Kutha, Ava, Hamathi na Sefarvaimu na kuwaweka katika miji ya Samaria badala ya Waisraeli. Wakaimiliki Samaria na kuishi katika miji yake.
and to come (in): bring king Assyria from Babylon and from Cuthah [to] and from Ivvah and from Hamath and Sepharvaim and to dwell in/on/with city Samaria underneath: instead son: descendant/people Israel and to possess: take [obj] Samaria and to dwell in/on/with city her
25 Wakati walianza kuishi humo, hawakumwabudu Bwana, kwa hiyo akatuma simba miongoni mwao, wakawaua baadhi ya watu.
and to be in/on/with beginning to dwell they there not to fear [obj] LORD and to send: depart LORD in/on/with them [obj] [the] lion and to be to kill in/on/with them
26 Habari ikapelekwa kwa mfalme wa Ashuru, kusema: “Watu uliowahamisha na kuwaweka katika miji ya Samaria hawajui kile Mungu wa nchi hiyo anachokitaka. Ametuma simba miongoni mwao, ambao wanawaua, kwa sababu watu hawajui anachokitaka.”
and to say to/for king Assyria to/for to say [the] nation which to reveal: remove and to dwell in/on/with city Samaria not to know [obj] justice: rule God [the] land: country/planet and to send: depart in/on/with them [obj] [the] lion and behold they to die [obj] them like/as as which nothing they to know [obj] justice: rule God [the] land: country/planet
27 Ndipo mfalme wa Ashuru akaamuru hivi: “Mtwae mmoja wa makuhani uliowachukua mateka kutoka Samaria ili arudi kuishi humo na awafundishe watu kile ambacho Mungu wa nchi anataka.”
and to command king Assyria to/for to say to go: send there [to] one from [the] priest which to reveal: remove from there and to go: went and to dwell there and to show them [obj] justice: rule God [the] land: country/planet
28 Basi mmoja wa makuhani ambaye alikuwa amepelekwa uhamishoni kutoka Samaria akaja kuishi Betheli na kuwafundisha jinsi ya kumwabudu Bwana.
and to come (in): come one from [the] priest which to reveal: remove from Samaria and to dwell in/on/with Bethel Bethel and to be to show [obj] them how? to fear [obj] LORD
29 Hata hivyo, kila kikundi cha taifa lililoletwa Samaria kilitengeneza miungu yao wenyewe katika miji kadhaa mahali walipoishi, nao wakaiweka mahali pa ibada za miungu ambapo watu wa Samaria walikuwa wametengeneza katika mahali pa juu.
and to be to make nation nation God his and to rest in/on/with house: home [the] high place which to make [the] Samaritan nation nation in/on/with city their which they(masc.) to dwell there
30 Watu kutoka Babeli wakamtengeneza Sukoth-Benothi kuwa mungu wao, watu kutoka Kutha wakamtengeneza Nergali, na watu kutoka Hamathi wakamtengeneza Ashima;
and human Babylon to make [obj] Succoth-benoth Succoth-benoth and human Cuthah to make [obj] Nergal and human Hamath to make [obj] Ashima
31 Waavi wakatengeneza Nibhazi na Tartaki, nao Wasefarvi wakachoma watoto wao kama kafara kwa Adrameleki na Anameleki, miungu ya Sefarvaimu.
and [the] Avvite to make Nibhaz and [obj] Tartak and [the] Sepharvaim to burn [obj] son: child their in/on/with fire to/for Adrammelech and Anammelech (God Sepharvaim *Q(K)*)
32 Walimwabudu Bwana, lakini pia waliteua aina zote za watu wao ili kuwawakilisha kama makuhani katika mahali pa kuabudia miungu kwenye mahali pa juu pa ibada.
and to be afraid [obj] LORD and to make to/for them from end their priest high place and to be to make: offer to/for them in/on/with house: home [the] high place
33 Walimwabudu Bwana, lakini pia waliitumikia miungu yao kulingana na desturi za mataifa walikotoka.
[obj] LORD to be afraid and [obj] God their to be to serve: minister like/as justice: custom [the] nation which to reveal: remove [obj] them from there
34 Mpaka leo wanashikilia desturi zao za zamani. Hawamwabudu Bwana wala kuzishika hukumu na maagizo, sheria na amri ambazo Bwana aliwapa uzao wa Yakobo, ambaye alimwita Israeli.
till [the] day: today [the] this they(masc.) to make: do like/as justice: custom [the] first: previous nothing they afraid [obj] LORD and nothing they to make: do like/as statute their and like/as justice: judgement their and like/as instruction and like/as commandment which to command LORD [obj] son: descendant/people Jacob which to set: name name his Israel
35 Wakati Bwana alipofanya Agano na Waisraeli, aliwaamuru akisema: “Msiiabudu miungu mingine yoyote wala kuisujudia, wala kuitumikia wala kuitolea dhabihu.
and to cut: make(covenant) LORD with them covenant and to command them to/for to say not to fear God another and not to bow to/for them and not to serve: minister them and not to sacrifice to/for them
36 Bali imewapasa kumwabudu Bwana aliyewapandisha kutoka Misri kwa uwezo wake mkuu na kwa mkono wake ulionyooshwa. Kwake yeye mtasujudu na kwake yeye mtatoa dhabihu.
that if: except if: except [obj] LORD which to ascend: establish [obj] you from land: country/planet Egypt in/on/with strength great: large and in/on/with arm to stretch [obj] him to fear and to/for him to bow and to/for him to sacrifice
37 Imewapasa daima kuwa waangalifu kutunza hukumu na maagizo, sheria na amri alizowaandikia. Msiabudu miungu mingine.
and [obj] [the] statute: decree and [obj] [the] justice: judgement and [the] instruction and [the] commandment which to write to/for you to keep: careful [emph?] to/for to make: do all [the] day: always and not to fear God another
38 Msisahau agano nililofanya nanyi, wala msiabudu miungu mingine.
and [the] covenant which to cut: make(covenant) with you not to forget and not to fear God another
39 Bali, mtamwabudu Bwana Mungu wenu, kwani yeye ndiye atakayewakomboa kutoka mikononi mwa adui zenu wote.”
that if: except if: except [obj] LORD God your to fear and he/she/it to rescue [obj] you from hand: power all enemy your
40 Hata hivyo hawakusikiliza, lakini waliendelea na desturi zao za awali.
and not to hear: hear that if: except if: except like/as justice: custom their [the] first: previous they(masc.) to make: do
41 Hata wakati watu hawa walipokuwa wanamwabudu Bwana, walikuwa bado wakitumikia sanamu zao. Mpaka leo watoto wao na watoto wa watoto wao wanaendelea kufanya kama baba zao walivyofanya.
and to be [the] nation [the] these afraid [obj] LORD and [obj] idol their to be to serve: minister also son: child their and son: child son: child their like/as as which to make: do father their they(masc.) to make: do till [the] day: today [the] this
