2 Mga Cronica 21
1 Si Jehoshafat ay namahinga kasama ang kaniyang mga ninuno at inilibing kasama nila sa lungsod ni David; si Jehoram, na kaniyang anak ang pumalit sa kaniya bilang hari.
Then Jehoshaphat slept with his fathers, and he was buried with them in the City of David. And his son, Jehoram, reigned in his place.
2 Si Jehoram ay may mga kapatid na lalaki, ang mga lalaking anak ni Jehoshafat ay sina Azarias, Jehiel, Zacarias, Azarias, Micael at Sefatias. Ang lahat ng ito ay mga lalaking anak ni Jehoshafat na hari ng Israel.
And he had brothers, sons of Jehoshaphat: Azariah, and Jehiel, and Zechariah, and Azariah, and Michael, and Shephatiah. All these were sons of Jehoshaphat, the king of Judah.
3 Binigyan sila ng kanilang ama ng mga malalaking handog na pilak, ginto, at iba pang mga mahahalagang bagay, at gayundin ang mga matitibay na lungsod sa Juda; gayunman, ibinigay niya ang trono kay Jehoram dahil siya ang panganay.
And their father gave to them many gifts of silver, and gold, and valuables, with very fortified cities in Judah. But the kingdom he handed on to Jehoram, because he was the firstborn.
4 Ngayon, nang si Jehoram ay naghari sa kaharian ng kaniyang ama at matatag na itinalaga ang kaniyang sarili bilang hari, pinatay niya ang lahat ng kaniyang mga kapatid na lalaki gamit ang tabak, at ang lahat din na iba pang mga pinuno ng Israel.
Therefore, Jehoram rose up over the kingdom of his father. And when he had established himself, he killed with the sword all his brothers, and certain ones from the leaders of Israel.
5 Si Jehoram ay nasa tatlumpu't dalawang taong gulang nang siya ay nagsimulang maghari, at naghari siya ng walong taon sa Jerusalem.
Jehoram was thirty-two years old when he had begun to reign. And he reigned for eight years in Jerusalem.
6 Siya ay lumakad sa mga kaparaanan ng mga hari ng Israel gaya ng ginagawa ng sambahayan ni Ahab; dahil nasa kaniya ang babaeng anak ni Ahab bilang kaniyang asawa; at ginawa niya kung ano ang masama sa paningin ni Yahweh.
And he walked in the ways of the kings of Israel, just as the house of Ahab had done. For his wife was a daughter of Ahab, and he did evil in the sight of the Lord.
7 Gayunman, ayaw ni Yahweh na wasakin ang sambahayan ni David, dahil sa kasunduan na kaniyang ginawa kay David; siya ay nangako na lagi siyang bibigyan ng buhay at ang kaniyang mga kaapu-apuhan.
But the Lord was not willing to destroy the house of David, because of the covenant that he had formed with him, and because he had promised that he would provide a lamp to him, and to his sons, for all time.
8 Sa mga araw ni Jehoram, naghimagsik ang Edom mula sa kapangyarihan ng Juda, at nagtalaga sila ng kanilang sariling hari.
In those days, Edom rebelled, so as not to be subject to Judah, and they appointed for themselves a king.
9 At tumawid si Jehoram kasama ang kaniyang mga pinuno at ang lahat ng kaniyang karwahe. Nangyari na, siya bumangon nang gabi at sinalakay ang mga Edom na pumalibot sa kaniya at ang mga pinuno ng mga karwahe.
And when Jehoram had gone across with his leaders, and all the horsemen who were with him, he arose in the night, and struck the Edomites (who had surrounded him), and all the commanders of his horsemen.
10 Kaya nagrebelde ang Edom mula sa kapangyarihan ng Juda hanggang sa araw na ito. Sumabay ding naghimagsik ang Libna mula sa kaniyang kapangyarihan, dahil si Jehoram ay tumalikod kay Yahweh, ang Diyos ng kaniyang mga ninuno.
Even so, Edom rebelled, so as not to be under the authority of Judah, even to this day. Also at that time, Libnah withdrew, so as not to be under his hand. For he had forsaken the Lord, the God of his fathers.
11 Dagdag pa nito, nagtayo rin si Jehoram ng mga dambana sa mga bundok ng Juda; Pinakilos niya ang mga naninirahan sa Jerusalem na tulad ng isang nagbebenta ng aliw. Sa ganitong paraan, iniligaw niya ang Juda.
Moreover, he also constructed high places in the cities of Judah. And he caused the inhabitants of Jerusalem to fornicate, and Judah to prevaricate.
12 Isang liham mula kay propetang Elias ang dumating para kay Jehoram. Sabi sa liham, “Ito ang sinabi ni Yahweh, ang Diyos ni David na iyong ninuno: Dahil hindi ka lumakad sa kaparaanan ni Jehoshafat na iyong ama, o sa kaparaanan ni Asa na hari ng Juda,
Then letters were conveyed to him from the prophet Elijah, in which it was written: “Thus says the Lord, the God of David, your father: Because you have not walked in the ways of Jehoshaphat, your father, nor in the ways of Asa, the king of Judah,
13 sa halip ay lumakad ka sa kaparaanan ng mga hari ng Israel, at nagdulot sa Juda at ang mga naninirahan sa Jerusalem upang kumilos na gaya ng nagbebenta ng aliw, na tulad ng ginawa ng tahanan ni Ahab, at dahil pinatay mo rin gamit ng tabak ang iyong mga lalaking kapatid sa pamilya ng iyong ama, ang mga kalalakihan na mas mabuti kaysa sa iyong sarili,
but instead you have advanced along the paths of the kings of Israel, and you have caused Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem to fornicate, imitating the fornication of the house of Ahab, and moreover, you have killed your brothers, the house of your father, who are better than you:
14 tingnan mo, ipapadanas ni Yahweh ang matinding salot sa iyong mga tao, mga anak, mga asawa at ang lahat ng iyong mga kayamanan.
behold, the Lord will strike you with a great plague, with all your people, and your sons and wives, and all your substance.
15 Magkakaroon ka ng malubhang sakit dahil sa isang karamdaman sa iyong bituka, hanggang sa lumabas ang iyong bituka dahil sa sakit, araw-araw.”
And you shall be sickened by a very grievous disease of your bowels, until your inner organs depart, little by little, each day.”
16 Inudyukan ni Yahweh ang mga espiritu ng mga Filisteo at ng mga Arabo na malapit sa Etiopia upang labanan si Jehoram.
Therefore, the Lord stirred up, against Jehoram, the spirit of the Philistines, and of the Arabians, who are along the borders of the Ethiopians.
17 Sinalakay nila ang Juda, nilusob ito at kinuha ang lahat ng kayamanan na natagpuan sa sambahayan ng hari. Kinuha rin nila ang kaniyang mga anak na lalaki at ang kaniyang mga asawa. Walang naiwan na lalaking anak sa kaniya maliban kay Ahazias, ang kaniyang bunsong anak.
And they ascended into the land of Judah. And they laid waste to it. And they despoiled all the substance that was found in the house of the king, including even his sons and wives. Neither did there remain for him any son, except Jehoahaz, who was the youngest born.
18 Matapos ang lahat ng ito, binigyan siya ni Yahweh ng isang hindi malunasang karamdaman sa kaniyang bituka.
And in addition to all these things, the Lord struck him with an incurable disease of the bowels.
19 At nangyari na sa takdang panahon, pagkalipas ng dalawang taon, ang kaniyang bituka ay lumabas dahil sa kaniyang sakit at namatay siya dahil sa malubhang karamdaman. Ang kaniyang mga tao ay hindi nagsunog bilang parangal sa kaniya gaya ng kanilang ginawa para sa kaniyang mga ninuno.
And as day followed after day, and the space of time turned, the course of two years was completed. And after having been wasted by a long consumption, so much so that even his inner organs were discharged, the disease ended along with his life. And so he died of a very grievous illness. And the people did not make a funeral for him, according to the custom of burning, as they had done for his ancestors.
20 Nagsimula siyang maghari nang siya ay tatlumpu't dalawang taong gulang; naghari siya sa Jerusalem ng walong taon at namatay siya nang walang nagdalamhati. Siya ay kanilang inilibing sa lungsod ni David, ngunit hindi sa mga libingan ng mga hari.
He was thirty-two years old when he had begun to reign, and he reigned for eight years in Jerusalem. And he did not walk uprightly. And they buried him in the City of David, yet truly, not in the sepulcher of the kings.
