2 Chronicles 25
1 Amasiah jẹ́ ẹni ọdún mẹ́ẹ̀ẹ́dọ́gbọ̀n nígbà tí ó di ọba, ó sì jẹ ọba ní Jerusalẹmu fún ọdún mọ́kàndínlọ́gbọ̀n orúkọ ìyá rẹ̀ a máa jẹ́ Jehoadani, ó wá láti Jerusalẹmu.
Amaziah was twenty-five years old when he had begun to reign. And he reigned for twenty-nine years in Jerusalem. The name of his mother was Jehoaddan, from Jerusalem.
2 Ó ṣe ohun tí ó dára lójú Olúwa, ṣùgbọ́n kì í ṣe tọkàntọkàn.
And he accomplished good in the sight of the Lord. Yet truly, not with a perfect heart.
3 Lẹ́yìn tí ìjọba ti wà ní ìdarí rẹ̀, ó pa àwọn oníṣẹ́ tí ó pa baba rẹ̀ ọba.
And when he saw himself to be strengthened in his rule, he cut the throats of the servants who had killed his father, the king.
4 Síbẹ̀ kò pa àwọn ọmọ wọn, ṣùgbọ́n ó ṣe ní ìbámu pẹ̀lú ohun tí a kọ nínú òfin nínú ìwé Mose, níbi tí Olúwa ti paláṣẹ pé, “A kò gbọdọ̀ pa àwọn baba fún àwọn ọmọ wọn tàbí àwọn ọmọ fún baba wọn, olúkúlùkù ni kí ó kú fún ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ rẹ̀.”
But he did not put to death their sons, just as it was written in the book of the law of Moses, where the Lord instructed, saying: “The fathers shall not be slain because of the sons, nor the sons because of their fathers. Instead, each one shall die for his own sin.”
5 Amasiah, pe gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn Juda pọ̀, ó sì fi iṣẹ́ lé wọn lọ́wọ́ gẹ́gẹ́ bí ìdílé wọn sí àwọn alákòóso ẹgbẹẹgbẹ̀rún àti àwọn alákòóso ọ̀rọ̀ọ̀rún fún gbogbo Juda àti Benjamini, ó sì gbá iye wọn láti ẹni ogún ọdún àti jù bẹ́ẹ̀ lọ jọ, ó sì rí i pé ọ̀kẹ́ mẹ́ẹ̀ẹ́dógún àwọn ọkùnrin ni ó ti múra fún ìsìn ogun, tí ó lè gbá ọ̀kọ̀ àti àpáta mú.
And then Amaziah gathered together Judah, and he organized them by families, and tribunes, and centurions, throughout all of Judah and Benjamin. And he numbered them from twenty years old and upward. And he found three hundred thousand young men, who could go forth to battle, and who could hold spear and shield.
6 Ó sì yá ọ̀kẹ́ márùn-ún àwọn ọkùnrin oníjà láti Israẹli fún ọgọ́rùn-ún àwọn tálẹ́ǹtì fàdákà.
Also, he hired for pay from Israel one hundred thousand experienced men, for one hundred talents of silver.
7 Ṣùgbọ́n ènìyàn Ọlọ́run kan tọ̀ ọ́ wá ó sì wí pé, “Ọba, àwọn ọ̀wọ́ ogun láti Israẹli kò gbọdọ̀ yan pẹ̀lú rẹ, nítorí tí Olúwa kò wà pẹ̀lú Israẹli kì í ṣe pẹ̀lú ẹnìkankan láti Efraimu.
Then a man of God came to him, and he said: “O king, let not the army of Israel go forth with you. For the Lord is not with Israel, nor with all the sons of Ephraim.
8 Àní, tí ẹ bá lọ jà pẹ̀lú ìmúláyàle ní ojú ogun, Ọlọ́run yóò bì ọ́ ṣubú níwájú àwọn ọ̀tá, nítorí Ọlọ́run ní agbára láti ràn ọ́ lọ́wọ́ àti láti bì ọ́ ṣubú.”
But if you think that a war stands by the strength of the army, God will cause you to be overwhelmed by the enemies. For indeed, it belongs to God to assist, and to put to flight.”
9 Amasiah sì bi ènìyàn Ọlọ́run pé, “Ọgọ́rùn-ún tálẹ́ǹtì tí mo ti san fún àwọn ọ̀wọ́ ogun àwọn ọmọ Israẹli ń kọ́?” Ènìyàn Ọlọ́run dáhùn pé “Olúwa lè fún ọ ní èyí tí ó ju ìyẹn lọ.”
And Amaziah said to the man of God, “Then what will become of the one hundred talents, which I gave to the soldiers of Israel?” And the man of God responded to him, “The Lord has that from which he is able to give much more than this to you.”
10 Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni Amasiah, tú àwọn ọwọ́ ogun tí ó ti wá sí ọ̀dọ̀ rẹ̀ láti Efraimu ká. Ó sì rán wọn lọ ilé. Wọ́n kún fún ìbínú pẹ̀lú Juda, wọ́n sì padà lọ ilé pẹ̀lú ìbínú ńlá.
And so, Amaziah separated the army, which had come to him from Ephraim, so that they would return to their place. But having become very angry against Judah, they returned to their own region.
11 Nígbà náà, Amasiah ko ogun rẹ jọ àti àwọn ọmọ-ogun rẹ̀ lọ sí àfonífojì iyọ̀, níbi tí ó ti pa ẹgbẹ̀rún mẹ́wàá àwọn ọkùnrin Seiri.
Then Amaziah confidently led forth his people. And he went away to the Valley of the Salt Pits, and he struck down ten thousand of the sons of Seir.
12 Àwọn ọkùnrin Juda pẹ̀lú fi agbára mú àwọn ọkùnrin ẹgbẹ̀rún mẹ́wàá láààyè. Wọ́n mú wọn lọ sí orí òkè bèbè òkúta, wọ́n jù wọ́n sílẹ̀, kí gbogbo wọn sì fọ́ sí wẹ́wẹ́.
And the sons of Judah captured another ten thousand of the men. And they led them to the precipice of a certain rock. And they threw them from the summit, and they were all broken apart.
13 Ní báyìí àwọn ọ̀wọ́ ogun tí Amasiah ti rán lọ padà, tí wọn kò nípa nínú ogun gbógun sí àwọn ìlú Juda láti Samaria sí Beti-Horoni. Wọ́n pa ẹgbẹ̀rún mẹ́ta nínú wọn, wọ́n sì kó ọ̀pọ̀ ìkógun ńlá.
But the army that Amaziah had sent away, so that they would not go with him into battle, spread out among the cities of Judah, from Samaria as far as Beth-horon. And having killed three thousand, they took away much plunder.
14 Nígbà tí Amasiah padà láti ibi pípa àwọn ará Edomu, ó mú àwọn ọlọ́run àwọn ènìyàn Seiri padà wá. Ó gbé wọn kalẹ̀ gẹ́gẹ́ bi àwọn ọlọ́run tirẹ̀. Ó tẹríba fún wọn, ó sì rú ẹbọ fún wọn.
Truly, after the slaughter of the Edomites, and when the gods of the sons of Seir were brought, Amaziah chose them as gods for himself. And he was adoring them, and burning incense to them.
15 Ìbínú Olúwa ru sí Amasiah, ó sì rán wòlíì kan sí i, tí ó wí pé, “Kí ni ó dé tí ìwọ fi ń béèrè lọ́wọ́ àwọn ọlọ́run àwọn ènìyàn yìí, tí wọn kò le gba àwọn ènìyàn tiwọn kúrò lọ́wọ́ rẹ?”
For this reason, the Lord became angry against Amaziah, and he sent a prophet to him, who would say to him, “Why have you adored gods who did not free their own people from your hand?”
16 Bí ó ti n sọ̀rọ̀, ọba wí fún un pé, “Ṣé a yàn ọ́ ní olùgba ọba lámọ̀ràn ni? Dúró! Èéṣe tí a ó fi lù ọ́ bolẹ̀?” Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni, wòlíì náà dúró ṣùgbọ́n ó wí pé, “Èmi mọ̀ pé Ọlọ́run ti pinnu láti pa ọ́ run nítorí ìwọ ti ṣe èyí, ìwọ kò sì tẹ́tí sí ìmọ̀ràn mi.”
And after he spoke these things, he responded to him: “Are you the counselor of the king? Be quiet! Otherwise I will put you to death.” And departing, the prophet said, “I know that God has decided to kill you, because you have done this evil, and also because you have not agreed to my counsel.”
17 Lẹ́yìn tí Amasiah ọba Juda ti béèrè lọ́wọ́ àwọn olùdámọ̀ràn, ó rán ìpèníjà yìí sí Jehoaṣi ọmọ Jehoahasi ọmọ Jehu, ọba Israẹli pé, “Wá bá mi lójúkojú.”
And so Amaziah, the king of Judah, undertaking a very wicked counsel, sent to Joash, the son of Jehoahaz, the son of Jehu, the king of Israel, saying: “Come, let us see one another.”
18 Ṣùgbọ́n Jehoaṣi ọba Israẹli fèsì padà sí Amasiah ọba Juda pé, “Koríko kékeré kan ní Lebanoni rán iṣẹ́ sí igi kedari ní Lebanoni, fi ọmọbìnrin rẹ fún ọmọkùnrin mi ní ìgbéyàwó. Nígbà náà, ẹhànnà ẹranko ènìyàn ni Lebanoni wá, ó sì tẹ òṣùṣú náà lábẹ́ ẹsẹ̀.
But he sent back messengers, saying: “The thistle which is in Lebanon sent to the cedar of Lebanon, saying: ‘Give your daughter to my son as wife.’ And behold, the beasts that were in the forest of Lebanon passed through, and they trampled the thistle.
19 Ìwọ wí fún ara à rẹ wí pé, ìwọ ti ṣẹ́gun Edomu àti nísinsin yìí ìwọ ní ìhàlẹ̀ àti ìgbéraga. Ṣùgbọ́n dúró ní ilé! Kí ni ó dé tí ìwọ fi ń wá wàhálà tí o sì fi ń fa ìṣubú rẹ àti ti Juda pẹ̀lú?”
You said, ‘I struck down Edom.’ And for this reason, your heart is lifted up with pride. Settle in your own house. Why do you provoke evil against yourself, so that you may fall, and then Judah with you?”
20 Amasiah, bí ó tì wù kí ó rí kò tẹ́tí nítorí Ọlọ́run ṣe é kí ó lè gbé wọn lé Jehoaṣi lọ́wọ́: nítorí wọ́n wá àwọn ọlọ́run Edomu.
Amaziah was not willing to listen to him, because it was the will of the Lord that he be delivered into the hands of the enemies, because of the gods of Edom.
21 Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni Jehoaṣi, ọba Israẹli: òun àti Amasiah ọba Juda dojúkọ ara wọn ní Beti-Ṣemeṣi ní Juda.
And so Joash, the king of Israel, ascended, and they presented themselves within the sight of one another. Now Amaziah, the king of Judah, was in Beth-shemesh of Judah.
22 Àwọn ọmọ Israẹli da Juda rú, gbogbo olúkúlùkù ènìyàn sì sálọ sí ìlú rẹ̀.
And Judah fell before Israel. And each one fled to his own tent.
23 Jehoaṣi ọba Israẹli fi agbára mú Amasiah ọba Juda, ọmọ Joaṣi ọmọ Ahasiah ní Beti-Ṣemeṣi. Nígbà náà Joaṣi mú u wá sí Jerusalẹmu. Ó sì wó ògiri Jerusalẹmu lulẹ̀ láti ẹnu-ọ̀nà Efraimu sí igun ẹnu-ọ̀nà apá kan títí ń lọ sí irinwó ìgbọ̀nwọ́ ní gígùn.
Then Joash, the king of Israel, captured Amaziah, the king of Judah, the son of Joash, the son of Jehoahaz, at Beth-shemesh, and he led him to Jerusalem. And he destroyed its walls, from the gate of Ephraim as far as the gate of the corner, four hundred cubits.
24 Ọba kó gbogbo wúrà àti fàdákà àti gbogbo ohun èlò tí wọ́n rí ni ilé Ọlọ́run tí ọ́ wà ní àbojútó Obedi-Edomu, lápapọ̀ pẹ̀lú àwọn ìṣúra ààfin àti àwọn ògo pẹ̀lú, ó sì padà lọ sí Samaria.
Also, he brought back to Samaria all the gold and silver, and all the vessels, which he had found in the house of God, and with Obededom in the treasuries of the king’s house, as well as sons for hostages.
25 Amasiah ọmọ Joaṣi ọba Juda gbé fún ọdún mẹ́ẹ̀ẹ́dógún lẹ́yìn ikú Jehoaṣi ọmọ Jehoahasi ọba Israẹli.
Then Amaziah, the son of Joash, the king of Judah, lived for fifteen years after the death of Joash, the son of Jehoahaz, the king of Israel.
26 Fún ti iṣẹ́ mìíràn ti ìjọba Amasiah láti ìbẹ̀rẹ̀ dé ìparí, ṣé a kò kọ wọ́n sínú ìwé àwọn ọba Juda àti Israẹli?
Now the rest of the words of Amaziah, the first and the last, have been written in the book of the kings of Judah and Israel.
27 Láti ìgbà tí Amasiah ti yípadà kúrò láti máa tẹ̀lé Olúwa, wọ́n dìtẹ̀ sí i ní Jerusalẹmu, ó sì sálọ sí Lakiṣi ṣùgbọ́n, wọ́n rán àwọn ọkùnrin tẹ̀lé e lọ sí Lakiṣi, wọ́n sì pa á síbẹ̀.
And after he withdrew from the Lord, they set up an ambush against him in Jerusalem. But since he had fled into Lachish, they sent and killed him in that place.
28 A gbé e padà pẹ̀lú ẹṣin. A sì sin ín pẹ̀lú àwọn baba rẹ̀ ní ìlú ńlá ti Juda.
And having carried him back upon horses, they buried him with his fathers in the City of David.
