2 Kings 15
1 Ní ọdún kẹtàdínlọ́gbọ̀n tí Jeroboamu ọba Israẹli, Asariah ọmọ Amasiah ọba Juda sì bẹ̀rẹ̀ sí ní jẹ ọba.
After Jeroboam had been ruling Israel for almost twenty-seven years, Uzziah, the son of King Amaziah of Judah, began to rule.
2 Ó jẹ́ ẹni ọdún mẹ́rìndínlógún nígbà tí ó di ọba, ó sì jẹ ọba ní Jerusalẹmu fún ọdún méjìléláàádọ́ta. Orúkọ ìyá rẹ̀ a máa jẹ́ Jekoliah; ó wá láti Jerusalẹmu.
He was 16 years old when he started to rule, and he ruled in Jerusalem for 52 years. His mother was Jecoliah, from Jerusalem.
3 Ó ṣe ohun tí ó dára lójú Olúwa, gẹ́gẹ́ bí baba rẹ̀ Amasiah ti ṣe.
He did things that Yahweh was pleased with, like his father Amaziah had done.
4 Àwọn ibi gíga, bí ó ti wù kí ó rí, a kò ṣí wọn kúrò, àwọn ènìyàn náà tẹ̀síwájú láti máa rú ẹbọ àti sun tùràrí níbẹ̀.
But, the places at the pagan shrines where they worshiped Yahweh were not destroyed, and the people continued to burn incense [to honor Yahweh] at those places [instead of in Jerusalem, the place that Yahweh had appointed].
5 Olúwa sì kọlu ọba náà pẹ̀lú ẹ̀tẹ̀, títí di ọjọ́ tí ó kú, ó sì ń gbé ní ilé ọ̀tọ̀. Jotamu, ọmọ ọba sì tọ́jú ààfin, ó sì ń darí àwọn ènìyàn ilẹ̀ náà.
Yahweh caused Uzziah to become a leper, and he was a leper for the rest of his life. [He was not allowed to live in the palace]. He lived alone in a house, and his son Jotham ruled the country.
6 Fún ti ìyókù iṣẹ́ nígbà ìjọba Asariah, pẹ̀lú gbogbo ohun tí ó ṣe, ṣé a kò kọ wọ́n sínú ìwé ìtàn ayé àwọn ọba Juda.
[If you want to know about] everything else that Uzziah did, it is written [RHQ] in the scroll called ‘The History of the Kings of Judah’.
7 Asariah sinmi pẹ̀lú àwọn baba a rẹ̀. A sì sin ín sí ẹ̀bá wọn ní ìlú ńlá ti Dafidi. Jotamu ọmọ rẹ̀ sì rọ́pò rẹ̀ gẹ́gẹ́ bí ọba.
Uzziah died [EUP], and they buried him in [the part of Jerusalem called] ‘The City of David’, where his ancestors had been buried. Then his son Jotham officially became the king.
8 Ní ọdún kejìdínlógójì Asariah ọba Juda. Sekariah ọmọ Jeroboamu di ọba Israẹli ní Samaria, ó sì jẹ ọba fún oṣù mẹ́fà.
After Uzziah had been ruling Judah for almost thirty-eight years, Zechariah, the son of Jeroboam, became the king of Israel. He ruled in Samaria [city] for [only] six months.
9 Ó ṣe búburú lójú Olúwa, gẹ́gẹ́ bí àwọn baba rẹ̀ tí ṣe. Kò sì yípadà kúrò nínú ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ Jeroboamu ọmọ Nebati, èyí tí ó ti fa Israẹli láti dá.
He did many things that Yahweh considered to be evil, like his ancestors had done. He committed the same kind of sins that Jeroboam had committed, sins which led the Israeli people to sin.
10 Ṣallumu ọmọ Jabesi dìtẹ̀ sí Sekariah. Ó dojúkọ ọ́ níwájú àwọn ènìyàn, ó sì pa á, ó sì jẹ ọba dípò rẹ̀.
Then Shallum, the son of Jabesh, made plans to assassinate Zechariah. He killed him at Ibleam [town], and then he became the king.
11 Fún ti ìyókù iṣẹ́ nígbà ìjọba Sekariah. Wọ́n kọ ọ́ sínú ìwé ìtàn ayé àwọn ọba Israẹli.
Everything else that Zechariah did is written in the scroll called ‘The History of the Kings of Israel’.
12 Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa tí a sọ fún Jehu jẹ́ ìmúṣẹ: “Àwọn ọmọ rẹ̀ yóò jókòó lórí ìtẹ́ Israẹli títí dé ìran kẹrin.”
When Zechariah died, [that ended the dynasty of King Jehu]. That fulfilled what Yahweh said to King Jehu would happen: “Your son and grandson and great-grandson and great-great-grandson will all be kings of Israel.”
13 Ṣallumu ọmọ Jabesi di ọba ní ọdún kọkàndínlógójì Ussiah ọba Juda, ó sì jẹ ọba ní Samaria fún oṣù kan.
Shallum, the son of Jabesh, became the king of Israel after King Uzziah had been ruling Judah for almost thirty-nine years. But Shallum ruled in Samaria for [only] one month.
14 Nígbà náà Menahemu ọmọ Gadi lọ láti Tirsa sí Samaria. Ó dojúkọ Ṣallumu ọmọ Jabesi ní Samaria, ó pa á ó sì rọ́pò rẹ̀ gẹ́gẹ́ bí ọba.
Then Menahem, the son of Gadi, went up from Tirzah [city] to Samaria and assassinated Shallum. Then Menahem became the king of Israel.
15 Fún ti ìyókù iṣẹ́ ìjọba Ṣallumu, àti ìdìtẹ̀ tí ó dì, a kọ wọ́n sínú ìwé ìtàn ayé àwọn ọba Israẹli.
Everything else that Shallum did, including his killing King Zechariah, is written in the scroll called ‘The History of the Kings of Israel’.
16 Ní ìgbà tí Menahemu ń jáde bọ̀ láti Tirsa, ó dojúkọ Tifisa àti gbogbo ènìyàn tí ó wà ní ìlú ńlá àti agbègbè rẹ̀, nítorí wọn kọ̀ láti sí ẹnu ibodè. Ó yọ Tifisa kúrò lẹ́nu iṣẹ́, ó sì la inú gbogbo àwọn obìnrin aboyún.
While Menahem was ruling in Samaria, he completely destroyed Tappuah [village south of Samaria] and killed all the people who lived there and in the surrounding territory. He did that because the people in that city refused to surrender to him. [With his sword] he even ripped open the bellies of pregnant women.
17 Ní ọdún kọkàndínlógójì ti Asariah ọba Juda, Menahemu ọmọ Gadi di ọba Israẹli, ó sì jẹ ọba ní Samaria fún ọdún mẹ́wàá.
When King Azariah had been ruling Judah for almost thirty-nine years, Menahem, the son of Gadi, became the king of Israel. He ruled in Samaria for ten years.
18 Ó ṣe búburú lójú Olúwa, ní gbogbo ìjọba rẹ̀. Kò sì yípadà kúrò nínú ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ Jeroboamu ọmọ Nebati, èyí tí ó ti fa Israẹli láti dá.
He did many things that Yahweh considered to be evil. He committed the same kinds of sins that King Jeroboam had committed, sins that led the people of Israel to sin. He continued to commit those sins for the rest of his life.
19 Nígbà náà, Pulu ọba Asiria, gbógun ti ilẹ̀ náà, Menahemu sì fún un ní ẹgbẹ̀rin tálẹ́ǹtì fàdákà láti fi gba àtìlẹ́yìn rẹ̀ àti láti fún ìdúró tirẹ̀ lágbára lórí ìjọba.
Then King Tiglath-Pileser of Assyria came [with his army] to attack Israel. So Menahem gave him (thirty-eight tons/35,000 kg.) of silver in order that Tiglath-Pileser would help Menahem to continue to be king and rule his country more strongly.
20 Menahemu fi agbára gba owó náà lọ́wọ́ Israẹli. Gbogbo ọkùnrin ọlọ́lá ní láti dá àádọ́ta ṣékélì fàdákà láti fún ọba Asiria. Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ọba Asiria padà sẹ́yìn, kò sì dúró ní ilẹ̀ náà mọ́.
Menahem obtained that money from the rich men in Israel. He compelled each of them to contribute 50 pieces of silver. So Tiglath-Pileser [took that money and] went back home.
21 Fún ti ìyókù iṣẹ́ nígbà ìjọba Menahemu, àti gbogbo ohun tí ó ṣe, ṣé a kò kọ wọ́n sínú ìwé ìtàn ayé ọba Israẹli?
[If you want to know more about] everything that Menahem did, it is written [RHQ] in the scroll called ‘The History of the Kings of Israel’.
22 Menahemu sinmi pẹ̀lú àwọn baba rẹ̀. Pekahiah ọmọ rẹ̀ sì rọ́pò rẹ̀ gẹ́gẹ́ bí ọba.
Menahem died [EUP] and was buried, and his son Pekahiah became the king of Israel.
23 Ní ọdún kẹ́ẹ̀dógún Asariah ọba Juda, Pekahiah ọmọ Menahemu di ọba Israẹli ní Samaria, ó sì jẹ ọba fún ọdún méjì.
When King Uzziah had been ruling Judah for almost 50 years, Menahem’s son Pekahiah became the king of Israel. He ruled in Samaria for [only] two years.
24 Pekahiah ṣe búburú lójú Olúwa. Kò yípadà kúrò nínú ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ Jeroboamu ọmọ Nebati, èyí tí ó fa Israẹli láti dá.
He did many things that Yahweh considered to be evil. He committed the same kind of sins that King Jeroboam had committed, sins which led the people of Israel to sin.
25 Ọ̀kan lára àwọn olórí ìjòyè rẹ̀ Peka ọmọ Remaliah, dìtẹ̀ sí i. Ó mú àádọ́ta àwọn ọkùnrin ti àwọn ará Gileadi pẹ̀lú u rẹ̀. Ó pa Pekahiah pẹ̀lú Argobu àti Arie ní odi ààfin ọba ní Samaria. Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni Peka pa Pekahiah, ó sì jẹ ọba ní ipò rẹ̀.
Then one of Pekahiah’s army commanders whose name was Pekah, the son of Remaliah, planned with 50 men from [the] Gilead [region] to kill Pekahiah. They assassinated him in a fortified place in the king’s palace in Samaria. Then Pekah became the king.
26 Fún ti ìyókù iṣẹ́ ìjọba Pekahiah, gbogbo ohun tí ó ṣe, ni a kọ sínú ìwé ìtàn ayé àwọn ọba Israẹli.
Everything else that Pekahiah did is written in the scroll called ‘The History of the Kings of Israel’.
27 Ní ọdún kejìléláàádọ́ta Asariah ọba Juda, Peka ọmọ Remaliah di ọba Israẹli ní Samaria. Ó sì jẹ ọba fún ogún ọdún.
When King Uzziah had been ruling Judah for almost 52 years, Pekah, the son of Remaliah, became the king of Israel. He ruled in Samaria for 20 years.
28 Ó sì ṣe búburú lójú Olúwa, kò sì yípadà kúrò nínú ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ Jeroboamu ọmọ Nebati, èyí tí ó fa Israẹli láti dá.
He also did many things that Yahweh considered to be evil. He committed the same kind of sins that King Jeroboam had committed, sins that led the people of Israel to sin.
29 Ní ìgbà Peka ọba Israẹli, Tiglat-Pileseri ọba Asiria wá, ó sì mú Ijoni, Abeli-Beti-Maaka, Janoa, Kedeṣi àti Hasori. Ó gba Gileadi àti Galili pẹ̀lú gbogbo ilẹ̀ Naftali. Ó sì kó àwọn ènìyàn ní ìgbèkùn lọ sí Asiria.
While Pekah was the king, Tiglath-Pileser, the king of Assyria, came [with his army] and captured [the cities of] Ijon, Abel-Beth-Maacah, Janoah, Kedesh, Hazor, and the regions of Gilead, Galilee, and Naphtali. His army forced the Israeli people to leave their country and go to live in Assyria.
30 Nígbà náà, Hosea ọmọ Ela, dìtẹ̀ sí Peka ọmọ Remaliah. Ó dojúkọ ọ́, ó sì pa á, ó sì rọ́pò rẹ̀ gẹ́gẹ́ bí ọba ní ogún ọdún Jotamu ọmọ Ussiah.
Then Hoshea, the son of Elah, plotted to kill Pekah. He assassinated him when Uzziah’s son Jotham had been ruling Judah for almost 20 years. Then Hoshea became the king of Israel.
31 Fún ti ìyókù iṣẹ́ nígbà ìjọba Peka, àti gbogbo ohun tí ó ṣe, ṣé a kò kọ wọ́n sínú ìwé ìtàn ayé àwọn ọba Israẹli?
Everything else that Pekah did is written in the scroll called ‘The History of the Kings of Israel’.
32 Ní ọdún keje Peka ọmọ Remaliah ọba Israẹli, Jotamu ọmọ Ussiah ọba Juda bẹ̀rẹ̀ sí ní jẹ ọba.
When Pekah had been ruling Israel for almost two years, Uzziah’s son Jotham began to rule Judah.
33 Ó jẹ́ ẹni ọdún mẹ́ẹ̀ẹ́dọ́gbọ̀n nígbà tí ó di ọba. Ó sì jẹ ọba ní Jerusalẹmu fún ọdún mẹ́rìndínlógún. Orúkọ ìyá rẹ̀ a máa jẹ́ Jeruṣa ọmọbìnrin Sadoku.
He was 25 years old when he started to rule, and he ruled from Jerusalem for 16 years. His mother was Jerusha, the daughter of Zadok.
34 Ó ṣe ohun tí ó tọ́ lójú Olúwa gẹ́gẹ́ bí baba a rẹ̀ Ussiah ti ṣe.

But he did not destroy the places on the tops of hills where the people worshiped [Yahweh], and the people continued to burn incense there [to honor Yahweh]. Jotham’s workers built the Upper Gate of the temple.
36 Fún ti ìyókù iṣẹ́ nígbà ìjọba Jotamu, àti ohun tí ó ṣe, ṣé a kò kọ wọ́n sínú ìwé ìtàn ayé àwọn ọba Juda?
[If you want to know more about] everything else that Jotham did, it is written [RHQ] in the scroll called ‘The History of the Kings of Judah’.
37 (Ní ayé ìgbàanì, Olúwa bẹ̀rẹ̀ sí ní rán Resini ọba Siria àti Peka ọmọ Remaliah láti dojúkọ Juda).
It was during the time that Jotham was the king that Yahweh sent King Rezin of Syria and King Pekah of Israel [with their armies] to attack Judah.
38 Jotamu sinmi pẹ̀lú àwọn baba rẹ̀. A sì sin ín pẹ̀lú wọn ní ìlú ńlá Dafidi, ìlú ńlá ti baba rẹ̀. Ahasi ọmọ rẹ̀ sì rọ́pò rẹ̀ gẹ́gẹ́ bí ọba.
