< 2 Mga Hari 13 >
1 Sa ikadalawampu't tatlong taon na paghahari ni Joas, anak ni Ahasias hari ng Juda, si Jehoahas ay nagsimulang maghari sa Israel sa Samaria; naghari siya sa loob ng labimpitong taon.
After Joash had been ruling Judah for almost 23 years, Jehu’s son Jehoahaz became the king of Israel. He ruled in Samaria [city] for 17 years.
2 Ginawa niya ang masama sa paningin ni Yahweh at sinundan niya ang mga kasalanan ni Jeroboam anak ni Nebat, na nagdulot sa Israel na magkasala; at hindi tumalikod si Jehoahas mula rito.
He did many things that Yahweh considered to be evil and committed the same kind of sins that Jeroboam had committed, sins which led the people of Israel to sin. He did not stop committing those sins.
3 Dahil dito, nagsiklab ang galit ni Yahweh laban sa Israel at paulit-ulit niya silang pinasakop kay Hazael hari ng Aram at Ben Hadad anak ni Hazael.
So Yahweh became very angry with the Israeli people, and he allowed the army of King Hazael of Syria and his son Ben-Hadad to defeat the Israelis many times.
4 Kaya nagsumamo si Jehoahas kay Yahweh, at pinakinggan siya ni Yahweh dahil nakita niya ang pang-aapi sa Israel, kung paano sila inaaapi ng hari ng Aram.
Then Jehoahaz prayed to Yahweh [for help], and Yahweh heeded him, because he saw that the army of the king of Syria was oppressing the Israelis.
5 Kaya binigyan ni Yahweh ang Israel ng isang tagapagligtas, at sila ay nakatakas sa ilalim ng kapangyarihan ng mga Aramean, at ang bayan ng Israel ay nagsimulang mamuhay sa kani-kanilang tahanan gaya ng dati.
Yahweh sent a leader to Israel, who enabled them to be freed from being controlled by Syria. After that, the Israeli people lived peacefully as they had done previously.
6 Gayunpaman, hindi nila tinalikuran ang mga kasalanan ni Jeroboam, na nagdulot sa Israel na magkasala, at nagpatuloy sila sa paggawa nito. At nanatili ang diyus-diyosang Asera sa Samaria.
But they still continued to commit the same kind of sins that Jeroboam and his family had committed and which led the Israelis to [also] sin. And the statue of the goddess Asherah remained in Samaria.
7 Nagtira ang mga Amarean kay Jehoahas ng limampung mangangabayo lamang, sampung karwahe, at sampung libong kawal, dahil winasak sila ng hari ng Aram at ginawang tulad ng ipa sa panahon ng anihan.
Jehoahaz had only 50 men who rode on horses and ten chariots and 10,000 other soldiers, because the army of Syria had killed all the rest, trampling them like people walk on dirt.
8 Ang iba pang bagay tungkol kay Jehoahas, at ang lahat ng kaniyang ginawa at kaniyang kapangyarihan, hindi ba nasusulat sa Aklat ng mga Kaganapan sa Buhay ng mga Hari ng Israel?
[If you want to read about] [RHQ] everything else that Jehoahaz did, you can read about it in the scroll called ‘The History of the Kings of Israel’.
9 Kaya nahimlay si Jehoahas kasama ng kaniyang mga ninuno, at siya ay inilibing nila sa Samaria. Si Joas na kaniyang anak ang naging hari kapalit niya.
Jehoahaz died [EUP] and was buried in Samaria. Then his son Jehoash became the king.
10 Sa ikatatlumpu't pitong taon ng paghahari ni Joas hari ng Juda, nagsimula ang paghahari ni Jehoas anak ni Jehoahas sa Samaria; naghari siya sa loob ng labing-anim na taon.
Jehoash, the son of Jehoahaz, started to rule in Israel after King Joash had been ruling in Judah for 23 years. Jehoash ruled in Samaria for 17 years.
11 Ginawa niya kung ano ang masama sa paningin ni Yahweh. Hindi niya tinalikuran ang kasalanan ni Jeroboam anak ni Nebat, kung saan nagdulot sa Israel na magkasala, at namuhay siya sa mga ito.
He did many things that Yahweh considered to be evil. He refused to turn away from worshiping idols, which was the sin that [many years earlier King] Jeroboam had told the Israeli people to commit.
12 Ang iba pang bagay tungkol kay Joas, at lahat ng kaniyang ginawa, at kaniyang katapangan kung saan nakipaglaban siya kay Amasias hari ng Juda, hindi ba ito nasusulat sa Aklat ng mga Kaganapan sa Buhay ng mga Hari ng Israel?
The other things that happened while Jehoash was king and all the things that he did are written in the book called ‘The Account of What the Kings of Israel Did’. In that account they wrote about Jehoash’s [army’s] victories, and their war with [the army of] King Amaziah of Judah.
13 Nakahimlay si Joas kasama ng kaniyang mga ninuno, at si Jeroboam ang umupo sa kaniyang trono. Inilibing si Joas sa Samaria kasama ng mga hari ng Israel.
When Jehoash died, he was buried in Samaria where the [other] kings of Israel were buried. Then his son Jeroboam became king.
14 Ngayon, si Eliseo ay nagkasakit na kaniyang ikinamatay kalaunan, kaya si Joas ay bumaba at nanangis sa kaniya. Sinabi niya, “Ama ko, ama ko, ang mga karwahe ng Israel at mga mangangabayo ay kinukuha ka palayo!”
Elisha became very ill. Just before he died, King Jehoash went to Elisha and cried in front of him. [Saying the same words that Elisha had said when Elijah was taken to heaven], he said, “My father/master! My father/master! The chariots of us Israeli people and their drivers [are taking my master away]!”
15 Sinabi ni Eliseo, “Kumuha ka ng pana at ilang palaso,” kaya si Joas ay kumuha ng isang pana at ilang mga palaso.
Elisha said to him, “Bring to me a bow and some arrows!” So the king did that.
16 Sinabi ni Eliseo sa hari ng Israel, “Hawakan mo ang pana,” kaya hinawakan niya ito. Pagkatapos, ipinatong ni Eliseo ang kaniyang kamay sa mga kamay ng hari.
Then Elisha told the king to put his hands on the bow [and prepare to shoot some arrows]. And then Elisha put his own hands on the king’s hands.
17 Sinabi ni Eliseo, “Buksan mo ang bintanang nakaharap sa silangan,” kaya binuksan niya ito. Pagkatapos sinabi ni Eliseo, “Pumana ka!”, at pumana siya. Sinabi ni Eliseo, “Ito ang palaso ng katagumpayan ni Yahweh, palaso ng katagumpayan laban sa Aram, dahil lulusubin mo ang mga Aramean sa Afec hanggang matalo ninyo sila.”
Then Elisha told him, “[Have someone] open that window toward the east.” So they opened it. Then Elisha said, “Shoot!” So the king did. Then Elisha said, “That is the arrow that [indicates that your army] will defeat the Syrian army. Your army will completely defeat their [army] at Aphek [town].”
18 Pagkatapos sinabi ni Eliseo, “Kunin mo ang mga palaso,” kaya kinuha ito ni Joas. Sinabi niya sa hari ng Israel, “Ipana mo ito sa lupa,” at pinana niya ito sa lupa nang tatlong beses, pagkatapos tumigil siya.
Then Elisha said, “Pick up the other arrows and strike the ground with them!” So the king picked up the arrows and struck the ground three times.
19 Pero ang lingkod ng Diyos ay nagalit sa kaniya at sinabing, “Dapat pinana mo ang lupa ng lima o anim na beses. Pagkatapos lulusubin mo ang Aram hanggang maubos mo sila, pero ngayon, lulusubin mo lang sila ng tatlong beses.”
But Elisha was angry with him. He exclaimed, “You should have struck the ground five or six times! If you had done that, your army would have defeated the Syrian [army] until they were completely wiped out! But now, [because you struck the ground only three times, ] your army will defeat them only three times!”
20 Pagkatapos namatay si Eliseo, at siya ay inilibing. Ngayon sumalakay ang pangkat ng mga Moabita sa pagsisimula ng taon.
Then Elisha died and was buried. Groups of raiders from Moab came to Israel each year during (spring/the time when the cold season was ending).
21 Habang inililibing nila ang isang lalaki, nakita nila ang isang pangkat ng Moabita, kaya inihagis nila ang katawan sa libingan ni Eliseo. Pagkadikit na pagkadikit ng lalaki sa mga buto ni Eliseo, nabuhay siya at tumayo.
One year, when some Israeli people were burying a man’s body, they saw a group of those raiders. [They were afraid, ] so quickly they threw that man’s body into the tomb where Elisha [had been buried, and they ran away]. But as soon as the man’s body touched Elisha’s bones, the dead man became alive again and jumped up!
22 Inapi ni Hazael hari ng Aram ang Israel sa panahon ng paghahari ni Jehoahas.
King Hazael of Syria [sent soldiers to] oppress the Israeli people all during the years that Jehoahaz [ruled Judah].
23 Pero mahabagin si Yahweh sa Israel at mayroon siyang awa at malasakit sa kanila, dahil sa kaniyang tipan kay Abraham, Isaac at Jacob. Kaya hindi sila winasak ni Yahweh, at hindi niya pa rin sila inilayo sa kaniyang presensiya.
But Yahweh was very kind [DOU] to the Israeli people. He helped them because of the agreement that he had made with [their ancestors] Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. He did not get rid of the Israelis, and he still has not rejected them.
24 Namatay si Hazael hari ng Aram, at si Ben Hadad na kaniyang anak ang naging hari kapalit niya.
When Hazael the king of Syria died, his son Ben-Hadad became the king.
25 Binawi ni Jehoas anak ni Joacaz mula kay Ben Hadad anak ni Hazael ang mga lungsod na kinuha mula kay Joacaz na kaniyang ama noong digmaan. Nilusob siya ni Joas tatlong beses, at nabawi niya ang mga lungsod ng Israel.
[The army of] King Jehoash of Israel defeated [the army of] King Ben-Hadad three times, and recaptured the cities that Ben-Hadad’s army had captured during the time that Jehoash’s father Jehoahaz was ruling Israel.
