2 Chronicles 21
1 Nígbà náà Jehoṣafati sùn pẹ̀lú àwọn baba a rẹ̀, a sì sin ín pẹ̀lú wọn ní ìlú ńlá Dafidi. Jehoramu ọmọ rẹ̀ sì rọ́pò rẹ̀ gẹ́gẹ́ bí ọba.
And Jehoshaphat rested with his fathers and was buried with them in the City of David. And his son Jehoram reigned in his place.
2 Àwọn arákùnrin Jehoramu ọmọ Jehoṣafati jẹ́ Asariah, Jehieli, Sekariah. Asariahu, Mikaeli àti Ṣefatia. Gbogbo àwọn wọ̀nyí ni àwọn ọmọ Jehoṣafati ọba Israẹli.
Jehoram’s brothers, the sons of Jehoshaphat, were Azariah, Jehiel, Zechariah, Azariah, Michael, and Shephatiah; these were all sons of Jehoshaphat king of Israel.
3 Baba wọn ti fún wọn ní ẹ̀bùn púpọ̀ ti fàdákà àti wúrà àti àwọn ohun èlò iyebíye pẹ̀lú àwọn ìlú ààbò ní Juda, ṣùgbọ́n, ó ti gbé ìjọba fún Jehoramu nítorí òun ni àkọ́bí ọmọkùnrin.
Their father had given them many gifts of silver and gold and precious things, as well as the fortified cities in Judah; but he gave the kingdom to Jehoram because he was the firstborn.
4 Nígbà tí Jehoramu fi ẹsẹ̀ rẹ̀ múlẹ̀ gidigidi lórí ìjọba baba a rẹ̀, ó sì fi idà pa gbogbo àwọn arákùnrin rẹ̀ pẹ̀lú àwọn ọmọbìnrin ọba Israẹli.
When Jehoram had established himself over his father’s kingdom, he strengthened himself by putting to the sword all his brothers along with some of the princes of Israel.
5 Jehoramu jẹ́ ẹni ọdún méjìlélọ́gbọ̀n nígbà tí ó di ọba, ó sì jẹ ọba ní Jerusalẹmu fún ọdún mẹ́jọ.
Jehoram was thirty-two years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem eight years.
6 Ó rìn ní ọ̀nà àwọn ọba Israẹli gẹ́gẹ́ bí ìdílé Ahabu ti ṣe, nítorí ó fẹ́ ọmọbìnrin Ahabu. Ó ṣe búburú lójú Olúwa.
And Jehoram walked in the ways of the kings of Israel, just as the house of Ahab had done. For he married a daughter of Ahab and did evil in the sight of the LORD.
7 Bí ó tilẹ̀ rí bẹ́ẹ̀, nítorí tí májẹ̀mú tí Olúwa ti dá fún Dafidi kì í ṣe ìfẹ́ Olúwa láti pa ìdílé Dafidi run ó ti ṣe ìlérí láti tọ́jú fìtílà kan fún un àti àwọn àtẹ̀lé rẹ̀ títí láé.
Yet the LORD was unwilling to destroy the house of David, because of the covenant He had made with David, and since He had promised to maintain a lamp for David and his descendants forever.
8 Ní àkókò Jehoramu, Edomu ṣọ̀tẹ̀ sí Juda, wọ́n sì gbé ọba tiwọn kalẹ̀.
In the days of Jehoram, Edom rebelled against the hand of Judah and appointed their own king.
9 Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni, Jehoramu lọ síbẹ̀ pẹ̀lú àwọn ìjòyè rẹ̀ àti gbogbo àwọn kẹ̀kẹ́. Àwọn ará Edomu yí i ká àti àwọn alákòóso àwọn kẹ̀kẹ́ rẹ̀. Ṣùgbọ́n ó dìde ní òru ó sì ṣẹ́gun wọn ní òru.
So Jehoram crossed into Edom with his officers and all his chariots. When the Edomites surrounded him and his chariot commanders, he rose up and attacked by night.
10 Títí di ọjọ́ òní ni Edomu ti wà ní ìṣọ̀tẹ̀ sí Juda. Libina ṣọ̀tẹ̀ ní àkọ́kọ́ náà, nítorí tí Jehoramu ti kọ Olúwa sílẹ̀, Ọlọ́run àwọn baba a rẹ̀.
So to this day Edom has been in rebellion against the hand of Judah. Likewise, Libnah rebelled against his rule at the same time, because Jehoram had forsaken the LORD, the God of his fathers.
11 Òun pẹ̀lú ti kọ́ àwọn ibi gíga lórí àwọn òkè Juda. Ó sì ti fà á kí àwọn ènìyàn Jerusalẹmu ó ṣe àgbèrè pẹ̀lú ara wọn. Ó sì ti jẹ́ kí wọn ó ṣáko lọ.
Jehoram had also built high places on the hills of Judah; he had caused the people of Jerusalem to prostitute themselves and had led Judah astray.
12 Jehoramu gba ìwé láti ọwọ́ Elijah wòlíì, tí ó wí pé, “Èyí ní ohun tí Olúwa, Ọlọ́run baba à rẹ Dafidi wí: ‘Ìwọ kò tí ì rìn ní ọ̀nà àwọn baba à rẹ Jehoṣafati tàbí Asa ọba Juda.
Then a letter came to Jehoram from Elijah the prophet, which stated: “This is what the LORD, the God of your father David, says: ‘You have not walked in the ways of your father Jehoshaphat or of Asa king of Judah,
13 Ṣùgbọ́n ìwọ ti rìn ní ọ̀nà àwọn ọba Israẹli, ìwọ sì ti tọ́ Juda àti àwọn ènìyàn Jerusalẹmu láti ṣe àgbèrè sí ara wọn, gẹ́gẹ́ bí ilé Ahabu ti ṣe. Ìwọ sì ti pa àwọn arákùnrin rẹ, ẹ̀yà ara ilé baba à rẹ, àwọn ọkùnrin tí ó dára jù ọ́ lọ.
but you have walked in the ways of the kings of Israel and have caused Judah and the people of Jerusalem to prostitute themselves, just as the house of Ahab prostituted itself. You have also killed your brothers, your father’s family, who were better than you.
14 Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni nísinsin yìí, Olúwa ti fẹ́rẹ lu àwọn ènìyàn rẹ, àwọn ọmọ rẹ, àwọn ìyàwó rẹ àti gbogbo ohun tí ó jẹ́ tìrẹ, pẹ̀lú àjàkálẹ̀-ààrùn ńlá.
So behold, the LORD is about to strike your people, your sons, your wives, and all your possessions with a serious blow.
15 Ìwọ tìkára yóò ṣe àárẹ̀ pẹ̀lú àìsàn lílọ́ra ti ìfun, títí tí àìsàn náà yóò fi jẹ́ kí àwọn ìfun rẹ jáde sí ìta.’”
And day after day you yourself will suffer from a severe illness, a disease of your bowels, until it causes your bowels to come out.’”
16 Olúwa ru ìbínú àwọn ará Filistini àti àwọn Arabia tí wọ́n ń gbé ní ẹ̀bá àwọn ará Kuṣi sí Jehoramu.
Then the LORD stirred against Jehoram the spirit of the Philistines and Arabs who lived near the Cushites.
17 Wọ́n dojú ìjà kọ Juda, wọ́n gbà á, wọ́n sì kó gbogbo ọrọ̀ tí a rí ní ilé ọba pẹ̀lú, àwọn ọmọkùnrin rẹ̀ àti àwọn ọmọkùnrin kankan kò kù sílẹ̀ fún un bí kò ṣe Ahasiah, àbíkẹ́yìn nínú àwọn ọmọ rẹ̀.
So they went to war against Judah, invaded it, and carried off all the possessions found in the king’s palace, along with his sons and wives; not a son was left to him except Jehoahaz, his youngest.
18 Lẹ́yìn gbogbo èyí, Olúwa jẹ Jehoramu ní yà pẹ̀lú ààrùn tí kò ṣe é wòsàn nínú ìfun.
After all this, the LORD afflicted Jehoram with an incurable disease of the bowels.
19 Ní àkókò kan ní ìparí ọdún kejì, àwọn ìfun rẹ̀ jáde nítorí ààrùn náà ó sì kú nínú ìrora ńlá. Àwọn ènìyàn rẹ̀ kò dá iná láti fi bu ọlá fún un, gẹ́gẹ́ bí wọ́n ti ṣe fún àwọn baba a rẹ̀.
This continued day after day until two full years had passed. Finally, his intestines came out because of his disease, and he died in severe pain. And his people did not make a fire in his honor as they had done for his fathers.
20 Jehoramu jẹ́ ẹni ọdún méjìlélọ́gbọ̀n ní ìgbà tí ó di ọba, Ó sì jẹ ọba ní Jerusalẹmu fún ọdún mẹ́jọ. Ó kọjá lọ, kò sí ẹni tí ó kábámọ̀. A sì sin ín si ìlú ńlá ti Dafidi. Ṣùgbọ́n kì í ṣe nínú ibojì àwọn ọba.
Jehoram was thirty-two years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem eight years. He died, to no one’s regret, and was buried in the City of David, but not in the tombs of the kings.
