< 2 Kings 16 >
1 Ní ọdún kẹtàdínlógún Peka ọmọ Remaliah, Ahasi ọmọ Jotamu ọba Juda bẹ̀rẹ̀ sí i jẹ ọba.
In the seventeenth year of Pekah, the son of Remaliah: Ahaz, the son of Jotham, reigned as king of Judah.
2 Ẹni ogún ọdún ni Ahasi nígbà tí ó bẹ̀rẹ̀ sí jẹ ọba, ó sì jẹ ọba ọdún mẹ́rìndínlógún ní Jerusalẹmu, kò sì ṣe èyí tí ó tọ́ lójú Olúwa Ọlọ́run rẹ̀, gẹ́gẹ́ bí Dafidi baba rẹ̀.
Ahaz was twenty years old when he had begun to reign, and he reigned for sixteen years in Jerusalem. He did not do what was pleasing in the sight of the Lord, his God, as his father David did.
3 Ṣùgbọ́n ó rìn ní ọ̀nà àwọn ọba Israẹli, nítòótọ́, ó sì sun ọmọ rẹ̀ nínú iná, gẹ́gẹ́ bí ohun ìríra àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè, tí Olúwa lé jáde níwájú àwọn ọmọ Israẹli.
Instead, he walked in the way of the kings of Israel. Moreover, he even consecrated his son, making him pass through fire, in accord with the idols of the nations that the Lord destroyed before the sons of Israel.
4 Ó sì rú ẹbọ, ó sì sun tùràrí ní àwọn ibi gíga, àti lórí àwọn òkè kéékèèké àti lábẹ́ gbogbo igi tútù.
Also, he was immolating victims, and burning incense, in the high places, and on the hills, and under every leafy tree.
5 Nígbà náà ni Resini ọba Siria àti Peka ọmọ Remaliah ọba Israẹli gòkè wá sí Jerusalẹmu láti jagun: wọ́n dó ti Ahasi, ṣùgbọ́n wọn kò lè borí rẹ̀.
Then Rezin, the king of Syria, and Pekah, the son of Remaliah, the king of Israel, ascended to do battle against Jerusalem. And they besieged Ahaz, but they were not able to overcome him.
6 Ní àkókò náà, Resini ọba Siria gba Elati padà fún Siria, ó sì lé àwọn ènìyàn Juda kúrò ní Elati: àwọn ará Siria sì wá sí Elati, wọ́n sì ń gbé ibẹ̀ títí di òní yìí.
At that time, Rezin, the king of Syria, restored Elath to Syria, and he expelled the Judeans from Elath. And the Idumeans went into Elath, and they have lived there, even to this day.
7 Ahasi sì rán oníṣẹ́ sọ́dọ̀ Tiglat-Pileseri ọba Asiria wí pé, “Ìránṣẹ́ rẹ ni èmi, àti ọmọ rẹ; gòkè wá, kí o sì gbà mi lọ́wọ́ ọba Siria, àti lọ́wọ́ ọba Israẹli tí ó dìde sí mi.”
Then Ahaz sent messengers to Tiglath-pileser, the king of the Assyrians, saying: “I am your servant, and I am your son. Ascend and accomplish my salvation from the hand of the king of Syria, and from the hand of the king of Israel, who have risen up together against me.”
8 Ahasi sì mú fàdákà àti wúrà tí a rí ní ilé Olúwa, àti nínú ìṣúra ilé ọba, ó sì rán an sí ọba Asiria ní ọrẹ.
And when he had collected the silver and the gold that could be found in the house of the Lord, and in the treasuries of the king, he sent it as a gift to the king of the Assyrians.
9 Ọba Asiria sì gbọ́ tirẹ̀: nítorí ọba Asiria gòkè wá sí Damasku, ó sì kó o, ó sì mú un ní ìgbèkùn lọ sí Kiri, ó sì pa Resini.
And he agreed to his will. For the king of the Assyrians ascended against Damascus, and he laid waste to it. And he carried away its inhabitants to Cyrene. But Rezin he killed.
10 Ọba sì lọ sí Damasku láti pàdé Tiglat-Pileseri, ọba Asiria, ó sì rí pẹpẹ kan tí ó wà ní Damasku: Ahasi ọba sì rán àwòrán pẹpẹ náà, àti àpẹẹrẹ rẹ̀ sí Uriah àlùfáà, gẹ́gẹ́ bí gbogbo iṣẹ́ ọ̀nà rẹ̀.
And king Ahaz traveled to Damascus to meet Tiglath-pileser, the king of the Assyrians. And when he had seen the altar of Damascus, king Ahaz sent to Uriah, the priest, its pattern and likeness, according to all of its work.
11 Uriah àlùfáà sì kọ́ pẹpẹ náà gẹ́gẹ́ bi gbogbo èyí tí Ahasi ọba fi ránṣẹ́ sí i láti Damasku; bẹ́ẹ̀ ni Uriah àlùfáà ṣe é dé ìpadàbọ̀ Ahasi ọba láti Damasku.
And Uriah, the priest, constructed an altar in accord with all that king Ahaz had commanded from Damascus. Uriah, the priest, did so, until king Ahaz arrived from Damascus.
12 Nígbà tí ọba sì ti Damasku dé, ọba sì rí pẹpẹ náà: ọba sì súnmọ́ pẹpẹ náà, ó sì rú ẹbọ lórí rẹ̀.
And when the king had arrived from Damascus, he saw the altar, and he venerated it. And he went up and immolated holocausts, with his own sacrifice.
13 Ó sì sun ẹbọ sísun rẹ̀ àti ọrẹ-jíjẹ rẹ̀, o si ta ohun mímu rẹ̀ sílẹ̀, ó sì wọ́n ẹ̀jẹ̀ ọrẹ àlàáfíà rẹ̀ sí ara pẹpẹ náà.
And he offered libations, and he poured out the blood of the peace offerings, which he had offered, upon the altar.
14 Ṣùgbọ́n ó mú pẹpẹ idẹ tí ó wà níwájú Olúwa kúrò láti iwájú ilé náà, láti àárín méjì pẹpẹ náà, àti ilé Olúwa, ó sì fi í sí apá àríwá pẹpẹ náà.
But the altar of brass, which was before the Lord, he took away from the face of the temple, and from the place of the altar, and from the place of the temple of the Lord. And he positioned it at the side of the altar, toward the north.
15 Ahasi ọba sì pàṣẹ fún Uriah àlùfáà, wí pé, “Lórí pẹpẹ ńlá náà ni kó o máa sun ẹbọ sísun òròwúrọ̀ àti ọrẹ-jíjẹ alaalẹ́, àti ẹbọ sísun ti ọba, àti ọrẹ-jíjẹ rẹ̀, pẹ̀lú ẹbọ sísun tí gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn ilẹ̀ náà, àti ọrẹ-jíjẹ wọn, àti ọrẹ ohun mímu wọn; kí o sì wọ́n gbogbo ẹ̀jẹ̀ ẹbọ sísun náà lórí rẹ̀, àti gbogbo ẹ̀jẹ̀ ẹbọ mìíràn, ṣùgbọ́n ní ti pẹpẹ idẹ náà èmi ó máa gbèrò ohun tí èmi ó fi ṣe.”
Also, king Ahaz instructed Uriah, the priest, saying: “Upon the great altar, offer the morning holocaust, and the evening sacrifice, and the holocaust of the king, and his sacrifice, and the holocaust of the entire people of the land, and their sacrifices. But their libations, and all the blood of the holocaust, and all the blood of the victim, you shall pour out upon it. Then truly, the altar of brass shall be prepared for use at my will.”
16 Báyìí ni Uriah àlùfáà ṣe, gẹ́gẹ́ bí gbogbo èyí tí Ahasi ọba pàṣẹ.
And so Uriah, the priest, acted in accord with all that king Ahaz had instructed to him.
17 Ahasi ọba sì gé igi-ìpílẹ̀ àwọn àgbédúró náà, ó ṣí agbada náà kúrò lára wọn; ó sì gbé agbada ńlá náà kalẹ̀ kúrò lára àwọn màlúù idẹ tí ń bẹ lábẹ́ rẹ̀, ó sì gbé e ka ilẹ̀ tí a fi òkúta tẹ́.
Then king Ahaz took away the engraved bases, and the basin that was upon them. And he took down the sea from the bronze oxen, which were holding it up. And he positioned it upon a layer of pavement stone.
18 Ibi ààbò fún ọjọ́ ìsinmi tí a kọ́ nínú ilé náà, àti ọ̀nà ìjáde sí òde ọba, ni ó yípadà kúrò ní ilé Olúwa nítorí ọba Asiria.
Also, the canopy for the Sabbath, which he had built in the temple, and the exterior entrance of the king, he converted into the temple of the Lord, because of the king of the Assyrians.
19 Àti ìyókù ìṣe Ahasi tí ó ṣe, a kò ha kọ wọ́n sínú ìwé ọ̀rọ̀ ọjọ́ àwọn ọba Juda?
Now the rest of the words of Ahaz that he did, have these not been written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Judah?
20 Ahasi sì sùn pẹ̀lú àwọn baba rẹ̀, a sì sin ín pẹ̀lú àwọn baba rẹ̀ ní ìlú Dafidi: Hesekiah ọmọ rẹ̀ sì jẹ ọba ní ipò rẹ̀.
And Ahaz slept with his fathers, and he was buried with them in the city of David. And Hezekiah, his son, reigned in his place.
