2 Beresosɛm 21
1 Bere a Yehosafat wui no, wosiee no wɔ nʼagyanom nkyɛn wɔ Dawid kurom. Na ne babarima Yehoram dii nʼade sɛ ɔhene.
Forsothe Josaphat slepte with hise fadris, and was biried with hem in the citee of Dauid; and Joram, his sone, regnede for hym.
2 Yehoram nuanom mmarima a na wɔyɛ Yehosafat mmabarima afoforo bi no ne Asaria, Yehiel, Sakaria, Asaria, Mikael ne Sefatia.
And he hadde britheren, the sones of Josaphat, Azarie, Jahiel, and Zacarie, Anany, and Mychael, and Saphatie; alle these weren the sones of Josaphat, kyng of Juda.
3 Wɔn agya maa wɔn mu biara akyɛde a ɛsom bo, a ɛyɛ dwetɛ, sikakɔkɔɔ ne aboɔdenne; na afei, ɔde Yuda nkurow a wɔabɔ ho ban no bi kyekyɛɛ wɔn. Na esiane sɛ Yehoram yɛ abakan nti, ɔbɛyɛɛ ɔhene.
And her fadir yaf to hem many yiftis of gold and of siluer, and rentis, with strongeste citees in Juda; but he yaf the rewme to Joram, for he was the firste gendrid.
4 Na bere a Yehoram ahenni timii no, okunkum ne nuabarimanom no nyinaa ne Israelfo ntuanofo bi.
Forsothe Joram roos on the rewme of his fadir; and whanne he hadde confermyd hym silf, he killide alle hise britheren bi swerd, and summe of the princes of Juda.
5 Bere a Yehoram dii ade no, na wadi mfirihyia aduasa abien. Na odii ade wɔ Yerusalem mfirihyia awotwe.
Joram was of two and thritti yeer, whanne he bigan to regne; and he regnede eiyte yeer in Jerusalem.
6 Na Yehoram yɛɛ sɛnea Israel ahemfo yɛe. Na ɔyɛ otirimɔdenfo te sɛ ɔhene Ahab, efisɛ na waware Ahab mmabea no mu baako. Enti Yehoram yɛɛ bɔne wɔ Awurade ani so.
And he yede in the weies of the kyngis of Israel, as the hows of Achab hadde do, for the douyter of Achab was his wijf; and he dide yuel in the siyt of the Lord.
7 Nanso na Awurade mpɛ sɛ ɔsɛe Dawid ahenni nnidiso no, efisɛ na ɔne Dawid ayɛ apam ahyɛ bɔ sɛ, nʼasefo bɛkɔ so adi hene afebɔɔ.
But the Lord nolde distrie the hows of Dauid, for the couenaunt which he `hadde maad with Dauid, and for he `hadde bihiyte to yyue to hym a lanterne, and to hise sones in al tyme.
8 Yehoram bere so na Edomfo sɔre tiaa Yuda, na wosii wɔn ankasa wɔn hene.
In tho daies Edom rebellide, that it was not suget to Juda, and it ordeynede a kyng to it silf.
9 Enti Yehoram de asraafo ne ne nteaseɛnam nyinaa kɔtow hyɛɛ Edom so. Edomfo twaa ɔno ne ne nteaseɛnamkafo no ho hyiae, nanso ɔfaa anadwo sum mu guanee.
And whanne Joram hadde passide with hise princes, and al the multitude of knyytis, that was with hym, he roos bi niyt, and smoot Edom, that cumpasside him, and alle hise duykis of his multitude of knyytis.
10 Edom ade ne ho a ɔnhyɛ Yuda ase de besi nnɛ. Saa bere koro no ara mu, Libna kurow tew atua, efisɛ na Yehoram atwe ne ho afi Awurade, nʼagyanom Nyankopɔn ho.
Netheles Edom rebellide, that it was not vndir the lordschip of Juda `til to this dai. In that tyme also Lobna yede awei, that it was not vndur the hond of hym; for he hadde forsake the Lord God of hise fadris.
11 Na wasisi abosonsomfo nsɔree so wɔ Yuda mmepɔw asase so, ama nnipa a wɔwɔ Yerusalem ne Yuda akɔsom abosonsomfo anyame.
Ferthermore he made hiye places in the citees of Juda, and made the dwelleris of Jerusalem to do fornycacioun, `that is, idolatrie, and Juda to breke the lawe.
12 Na odiyifo Elia kyerɛw saa krataa yi kɔmaa Yehoram: “Asɛm a Awurade, wʼagya Dawid Nyankopɔn se ni: ‘Woanni wʼagya Yehosafat anaa wo nena Yudahene Asa nhwɛsopa so.
Forsothe lettris weren brouyt to hym fro Elie, the prophete, in whiche it was writun, The Lord God of Dauid,
13 Mmom, woayɛ omumɔyɛfo sɛ Israel ahemfo. Woama Yerusalemfo ne Yudafo akɔsom ahoni te sɛnea ɔhene Ahab yɛɛ wɔ Israel no. Na mpo, woakunkum wʼankasa wo nuanom mmarima a na wodi mu sen wo.
thi fadir, seith these thingis, For thou `yedist not in the weies of Josaphat, thi fadir, and in the weie of Asa, kyng of Juda, but thou yedist bi the weie of the kyngis of Israel, and madist Juda and the dwelleris of Jerusalem to do fornicacioun, and suedist the fornicacioun of the hows of Achab; ferthermore and thou hast slayn thi britheren and the hows of thi fadir, `that weren betere than thou; lo!
14 Enti afei, Awurade de ɔhaw kɛse bɛba wo, wo nkurɔfo, wo mma, wo yerenom ne biribiara a ɛyɛ wo dea so.
the Lord schal smyte thee with a greet veniaunce, and thi puple, and thi sones, and wyues, and al thi catel;
15 Wʼankasa de, wɔde nsono mu yare a ɛyɛ yaw yiye bɛto wo so akosi sɛ wʼayamude betu apue.’”
sotheli thou schalt be sijk `with the worste sorewe of wombe, til thin entrailis go out litil and litil bi ech dai.
16 Na Awurade kaa Filistifo ne Arabfo a na wɔte bɛn Etiopiafo so sɛ wɔnkɔtow nhyɛ Yehoram so.
Therfor the Lord reiside ayens Joram the spirit of Filisteis and Arabeis, that marchen with Ethiopiens; and thei stieden in to the lond of Juda,
17 Wɔbɔɔ nsra kɔɔ Yuda so kotuaa wɔn ano, fow aboɔden nneɛma a ɛwɔ ahemfi hɔ a ne mmabarima ne ne yerenom ka ho. Ne babarima kumaa Yehoahas nko na wogyaw no.
and wastiden it, and thei token awei al the catel, that was foundun in the hows of the kyng, ferthermore and hise sones, and wyues; and no sone was left to hym, no but Joachaz, that was the leeste in birthe.
18 Eyi akyi na Awurade maa nsono mu yare a ano yɛ den bɔɔ Yehoram.
And ouer alle these thingis the Lord smoot hym with vncurable sorewe of the wombe.
19 Akyiri no, mfe abien akyi, ɔyare no maa nʼayamde puei, na owui ɔyaw mu. Ne nkurɔfo ammɔ ogyatannaa kɛse, amfa anhyɛ no anuonyam wɔ nʼayiyɛ mu sɛnea wɔyɛ maa nʼagyanom no.
And whanne dai cam aftir a dai, and the spaces of tymes weren turned aboute, the cours of twey yeer was fillid; and so he was wastid `bi long rot, so that he castide out also his entrailis, and so he wantide sorewe and liyf togidere, and he was deed in the werste sikenesse. And the puple dide not to hym seruyce of deed men bi the custom of brennyng, as it hadde do to hise grettere, `ether auncetris.
20 Yehoram dii ade no, na wadi mfirihyia aduasa abien, na odii ade wɔ Yerusalem mfirihyia awotwe. Owui no, anyɛ obiara awerɛhow. Wosiee no wɔ Dawid kurom, nanso ɛnyɛ adehye asiei.
He was of two and thritti yeer whanne he bigan to regne, and he regnede eiyte yeer in Jerusalem, and he yede not riytfuli; and thei birieden hym in the citee of Dauid, netheles not in the sepulcre of kingis.
