2 Nyakati 28
1 Ahazi alikuwa na umri wa miaka ishirini na mitano alipoanza kutawala, na akatawala miaka kumi na sita katika Yerusalemu. Hakufanya yaliyoadili katika macho ya Yahwe, kama Daudi babu yake alivyokuwa amefanya.
[was] a son of Twenty year[s] Ahaz when became king he and six-teen year[s] he reigned in Jerusalem and not he did the right in [the] eyes of Yahweh like David ancestor his.
2 Badala yake, alitembea katika njia za wafalme wa Israeli; pia alitengeneza sanamu za kusubu kwa ajila ya Mabaali.
And he walked in [the] ways of [the] kings of Israel and also molten images he made for the Baals.
3 Zaidi ya hayo, akafukiza uvumba katika bonde la Beni Hinomu na akawaweka watoto wake ndani ya moto, kwa mjibu wa desturi za uzinzi za watu ambao Yahwe aliwafukuza nje ya nchi zao mbele za watu wa Israeli.
And he he made smoke in [the] valley of Ben Hinnom and he burned sons his in the fire according to [the] abominations of the nations which he dispossessed Yahweh from before [the] people of Israel.
4 Akatoa sadaka na kufukiza uvumba katika sehemu za juu na juu ya vilima na chini ya kila mti wenye majani mabichi.
And he sacrificed and he made smoke at the high places and on the hills and under every tree luxuriant.
5 Kwa hiyo Yahwe Mungu wa Ahazi, akamweka katika mikono ya mfalme wa Shamu. Waaramu wakamshinda na kuchukua kutoka kwake kundi kubwa la mateka, wakawapeleka Damesiki. Ahazi pia aliwekwa katika mikono ya mfalme wa Israeli ambaye alimshinda kwa mauji makuu.
And he gave him Yahweh God his in [the] hand of [the] king of Aram and they defeated him and they took captive from him a group of captives large and they brought [them] Damascus and also in [the] hand of [the] king of Israel he was given and he defeated him a defeat great.
6 Kwa maana Peka mwana wa Remalia, aliwaua katika Yuda wanajeshi 120, 00 kwa siku moja, wote walikuwa wanaume hodari, kwa maana walikuwa wamemsahau Yahwe, Mungu wa babu zao.
And he killed Pekah [the] son of Remaliah among Judah one hundred and twenty thousand in a day one all [were] sons of strength because had forsaken they Yahweh [the] God of ancestors their.
7 Zikri, mtu mwenye nguvu kutoka Efraimu, akawaua Maaseya mwana wa mfalme, Azrikamu, mwangalizi mkuu wa ikulu, na Elkana, ambaye alikuwa karibu na mfalme.
And he killed Zikri - warrior of Ephraim Maaseiah [the] son of the king and Azrikam [the] officer of the house and Elkanah [the] second of the king.
8 Jeshsi la Israeli likachukua mateka kutoka kwa ndugu zao 200, 000 wake, wana, na mabinti. Pia wakachukua nyara nyingi, ambazo walipeleka Samaria.
And they took captive [the] people of Israel of relatives their two hundred thousand women sons and daughters and also booty much they plundered from them and they brought the booty to Samaria.
9 Lakini nabii wa Yahwe alikuwapo huko, jina lake aliitwa Odedi. Alikwenda nje kukutana na jeshi likiingia Samaria. Akawaambia, “Kwa sababu Yahwe, Mungu wa babu zenu, alikuwa na hasiri na Yuda, akawatia katika mikono yenu. Lakini mmewaua katika hasira inayofika juu mbinguni.
And there he was a prophet of Yahweh [was] Oded name his and he went out before the army which was coming to Samaria and he said to them here! in [the] wrath of Yahweh [the] God of ancestors your towards Judah he gave them in hand your and you have killed among them in a rage [which] to to the heavens it has reached.
10 Sasa ninyi badala ya kuwahifadhi wanaume na wanawake wa Yuda na Yerusalemu kama watumwa wenu. Lakini je hamko na hatia ya dhambi zenu zidi ya Yahwe Mungu wenu?
And now [the] people of Judah and Jerusalem you [are] saying to subjugate to [male] slaves and to female slaves for yourselves ¿ not certainly you with you [are] guilt to Yahweh God your.
11 Sasa basi, nisikilizeni: warudisheni wafubgwa, ambao mmewachukua wa ndugu zenu, kwa maana ghadhabu ya Yahwe iko juu yenu.”
And therefore listen to me and return the group of captives which you have taken captive from relatives your for [the] burning of [the] anger of Yahweh [is] towards you.
12 Kisha baadhi ya viongozi wa watu wa Efraimu—Azaria mwana wa Yohanani, Berekia mwana wa Meshiremothi, na Yehizikia mwana wa Shalumu, na Amasa mwana wa Hadlai, wakasimama kinyume na wale waliorudi kutoka vitani.
And they rose up men some of [the] leaders of [the] descendants of Ephraim Azariah [the] son of Jehohanan Berekiah [the] son of Meshillemoth and Jechizkiah [the] son of Shallum and Amasa [the] son of Hadlai on the [ones who] were coming from the war.
13 Wakasema kwao, “Lazimaa msiwaleta wafungwa hapa, kwa kuwa mlikusudia jambo ambalo litaleta juu yetu dhambi dhidi ya Yahwe, kuongeza dhambi juu yetu na makosa yetu, kwa maana makosa yetu ni makuu, na kuna hasira kali dhidi ya Israeli.”
And they said to them not you must bring the group of captives here for to [the] guilt of Yahweh on us [are] you? saying to add to sins our and to guilt our for much guilt [belongs] to us and burning of anger [is] towards Israel.
14 Hivyo watu wenye silaha wakawaacha wafungwa na mateka mbele ya viongozi wa Israeli na kusanyiko lote
And he left the [man] equipped the group of captives and the plunder before the commanders and all the assembly.
15 Watu ambao walipangwa kwa majina wakanyanyuka na kuwachukua wafungwa, na kuwavika wote waliokuwa uchi miongoni mwa mateka. Wakawavika na kuwapa viatu. Wakawapa chakula wale na kunywa. Wakawahudumia majeraha yao na kuwaweka waliodhaifu juu ya punda. Wakawarudisha kwenye familia zao katika Yeriko, (Ulioitwa mji wa mitende). Kisha wakarudi Samaria.
And they arose the men who they had been designated by names and they took hold on the group of captives and all naked people their they clothed from the booty and they clothed them and they shod them and they fed them and they gave to drink them and they anointed them and they led them on donkeys any [one who] stumbled and they brought them Jericho [the] city of the palm trees beside relatives their and they returned Samaria.
16 Wakati huo Mfalme Ahazi akatuma wajumbe kwa wafalme wa Ashuru kuwaomba wamsaidie.
At the time that he sent the king Ahaz to [the] kings of Assyria to help him.
17 Kwa maana Waedomu walikuwa wamekuja tena na kuvamia Yuda, wakachukua wafungwa.
And again [the] Edomites they had come and they had defeated Judah and they had taken captive captive[s].
18 Wafilisti pia wakavamia miji ya nchi ya chini na ya Negebu ya Yuda. Waliichukua Beth-shemeshi, Ayaloni, Giderothi, SoKo pamoja na vijiji vyake, Timna pamoja na vijiji vyake. Wakaenda kuishi katika sehemu hizo.
And [the] Philistines they had made a raid on [the] cities of the Shephelah and the Negev of Judah and they had captured Beth Shemesh and Aijalon and Gederoth and Socoh and daughters its and Timnah and daughters its and Gimzo and daughters its and they dwelt there.
19 Kwa kuwa Yahwe aliishusha chini Yuda kwa sababu ya Ahazi, mfalme wa Israeli; kwa maana alikuwa ametenda maovu katika Yuda na alikuwa ametenda dhambi nzito sana dhidi ya Yahwe.
For he had humbled Yahweh Judah for sake of Ahaz [the] king of Israel for he had allowed lack of restraint in Judah and he had acted unfaithfully unfaithfulness against Yahweh.
20 Tiglath-pileseri, mfalme wa Ashuru, akaja kwake na akampa tabu badala ya kumpa nguvu.
And he came on him Tiglath-pileser [the] king of Assyria and he harassed him and not he strengthened him.
21 Kwa kuwa Ahazi aliteka nyara nyumba ya Yahwe na nyumba ya mfalme na viongozi, kwa ajili ya kuvitoa vitu vya thamani kwa mfalme wa Ashuru. Lakini kufanya hivyo hakukumfaidisha yeye.
For he had plundered Ahaz [the] house of Yahweh and [the] house of the king and the officials and he had given to [the] king of Assyria and not for help for him.
22 Mfalme Ahazi huyu huyu akatenda dhambi hata zaidi dhidi ya Yahwe katika muda wa mateso yake.
And at [the] time harassed him and he increased to act unfaithfully against Yahweh that the king Ahaz.
23 Kwa maana aliwatolea dhabihu mingu wa Dameski, miungu ambao walimshinda. Akasema, “Kwa sababu miungu wa mfalme wa Aramu waliwasaidia, nitawatolea sadaka ili wanisaidie.” Lakini walikuwa watesi wake na Israeli yote.
And he sacrificed to [the] gods of Damascus which had defeated him and he said that [the] gods of [the] kings of Aram they [are] helping them to them I will sacrifice and they will help me and they they became for him causing overthrow his and all Israel.
24 Ahazi akazikusanya pamoja samani za nyumba ya Mungu na kuzikata vipande vipande. Akaifunga milango ya nyumba ya Yahwe na kuzitengeneza madhabahu kwa ajili yake mwenyewe katika kila kona ya Yerusalemu.
And he gathered Ahaz [the] utensils of [the] house of God and he cut up [the] utensils of [the] house of God and he closed [the] doors of [the] house of Yahweh and he made for himself altars at every corner in Jerusalem.
25 Katika kila mji wa Yuda akafanya sehemu za juu kwa ajili ya kutolea sadaka za kuteketezwa kwa miungu wengine. Akamfanya Yahwe, Mungu wa babu zake, akasirike.
And in every city and a city of Judah he made high places to make smoke to gods other and he provoked Yahweh [the] God of ancestors his.
26 Sasa matendo yake yaliyobaki, na njia zake zote, mwanzo na mwisho, ona, yameandikwa katika kitabu cha wafalme wa Yuda na Israeli.
And [the] rest of matters his and all ways his former and latter there they [are] written on [the] scroll of [the] kings of Judah and Israel.
27 Ahazi akalala pamoja na babu zake, na wakamzika katika mji, katika Yerusalemu, lakini hawakumleta kwenye makaburi ya wafalme wa Israeli. Hezekia, mwanaye, akawa mfamle katika nafasi yake.
And he lay down Ahaz with ancestors his and people buried him in the city in Jerusalem for not they brought him to [the] graves of [the] kings of Israel and he became king Hezekiah son his in place of him.
