< 2 Kings 21 >
1 Manase jẹ́ ẹni ọdún méjìlá nígbà tí ó bẹ̀rẹ̀ sí ìjọba, ó sì jẹ ọba ní Jerusalẹmu fún ọdún márùndínlọ́gọ́ta. Orúkọ ìyá rẹ̀ sì ni Hẹfisiba.
Manasseh was twelve years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem fifty-five years. His mother’s name was Hephzibah.
2 Ó sì ṣe búburú ní ojú Olúwa, ó sì tẹ̀lé iṣẹ́ ìríra tí àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè tí Olúwa lé jáde níwájú àwọn ọmọ Israẹli.
And he did evil in the sight of the LORD by following the abominations of the nations that the LORD had driven out before the Israelites.
3 Ó sì tún ibi gíga tí baba rẹ̀ Hesekiah tí ó parun kọ́. Ó sì tún gbé pẹpẹ Baali dìde, ó sì ṣe ère òrìṣà Aṣerah, gẹ́gẹ́ bí Ahabu ọba Israẹli ti ṣe. Ó sì tẹríba sí gbogbo ogun ọ̀run, ó sì ń sìn wọ́n.
For he rebuilt the high places that his father Hezekiah had destroyed, and he raised up altars for Baal. He made an Asherah pole, as King Ahab of Israel had done, and he worshiped and served all the host of heaven.
4 Ó sì kọ́ pẹpẹ nínú ilé tí a kọ́ fún Olúwa, èyí tí Olúwa ti sọ pé, “Ní Jerusalẹmu ni èmi yóò kọ orúkọ mi sí.”
Manasseh also built altars in the house of the LORD, of which the LORD had said, “In Jerusalem I will put My Name.”
5 Ní àgbàlá méjèèjì ilé Olúwa, ó sì kọ́ pẹpẹ fún gbogbo àwọn ìrúbọ nínú ilé, ṣe iṣẹ́ àkíyèsí àfọ̀ṣẹ, ó sì béèrè lọ́wọ́ àwọn òkú àti àwọn oṣó. Ó sì ṣe ọ̀pọ̀ búburú ní ojú Olúwa, ó sì mú un bínú.
In both courtyards of the house of the LORD, he built altars to all the host of heaven.
6 Ó fi àwọn ọmọ ara rẹ̀ rú ẹbọ nínú iná, ó ń ṣe àkíyèsí àfọ̀ṣẹ, ó sì ń lo àlúpàyídà, ó sì ń bá àwọn òku àti oṣó lò. Ó ṣe ọ̀pọ̀ ohun búburú ní ojú Olúwa láti mú un bínú.
He sacrificed his own son in the fire, practiced sorcery and divination, and consulted mediums and spiritists. He did great evil in the sight of the LORD, provoking Him to anger.
7 Ó sì gbé ère fínfín òrìṣà Aṣerah tí ó ti ṣe, ó sì gbé e sínú ilé Olúwa, èyí tí Olúwa ti sọ fún Dafidi àti sí ọmọ rẹ̀ Solomoni, “Nínú ilé Olúwa yìí àti ní Jerusalẹmu, tí èmi ti yàn jáde lára gbogbo ẹ̀yà Israẹli, èmi yóò kọ orúkọ mi títí láéláé.
Manasseh even took the carved Asherah pole he had made and set it up in the temple, of which the LORD had said to David and his son Solomon, “In this temple and in Jerusalem, which I have chosen out of all the tribes of Israel, I will establish My Name forever.
8 Èmi kò ní jẹ́ kí ẹsẹ̀ àwọn ọmọ Israẹli yẹ̀ kúrò láti ilẹ̀ tí èmi fi fún àwọn baba ńlá wọn tí ó bá jẹ́ wí pé wọn yóò ṣe àkíyèsí láti ṣe gbogbo ohun tí èmi ti paláṣẹ fún wọn kí wọn sì pa gbogbo òfin tí ìránṣẹ́ mi Mose fi fún wọn mọ́.”
I will never again cause the feet of the Israelites to wander from the land that I gave to their fathers, if only they are careful to do all I have commanded them—the whole Law that My servant Moses commanded them.”
9 Ṣùgbọ́n àwọn ènìyàn náà kò tẹ́tí. Manase tàn wọ́n síwájú, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni kí wọ́n lè ṣe búburú ju gbogbo orílẹ̀-èdè tí Olúwa tí parun níwájú àwọn ọmọ Israẹli lọ.
But the people did not listen and Manasseh led them astray, so that they did greater evil than the nations that the LORD had destroyed before the Israelites.
10 Olúwa sì wí nípasẹ̀ ìránṣẹ́ rẹ̀ wòlíì pé,
And the LORD spoke through His servants the prophets, saying,
11 “Manase ọba Juda ti ṣe ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ ohun ìríra. Ó ti ṣe ohun búburú jùlọ ju àwọn ará Amori lọ ẹni tí ó ti wà ṣáájú rẹ̀ tí ó sì ti ṣáájú Juda sínú ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ pẹ̀lú àwọn ère rẹ̀.
“Since Manasseh king of Judah has committed all these abominations, acting more wickedly than the Amorites who preceded him, and with his idols has caused Judah to sin,
12 Nítorí náà èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa Ọlọ́run Israẹli, wí, Èmi le è lọ mú irú ibi báyìí wá sórí Jerusalẹmu àti Juda kí gbogbo etí olúkúlùkù tí ó gbọ́ nípa rẹ̀ le è hó.
this is what the LORD, the God of Israel, says: ‘Behold, I am bringing such calamity upon Jerusalem and Judah that the news will reverberate in the ears of all who hear it.
13 Èmi yóò sì nà okùn ìwọ̀n kan tí a lò lórí Jerusalẹmu àti lórí Samaria àti òjé ìdiwọ̀n ti a lò lórí ilé Ahabu. Èmi yóò sì nu Jerusalẹmu gẹ́gẹ́ bí ọkàn tí ń nu àwokòtò nù tí o ń nù un tí o sì ń dorí rẹ̀ kodò.
I will stretch out over Jerusalem the measuring line used against Samaria and the plumb line used against the house of Ahab, and I will wipe out Jerusalem as one wipes out a bowl—wiping it and turning it upside down.
14 Èmi yóò sì kọ ìyókù àwọn ìní mi sílẹ̀ èmi yóò sì kó wọn lé àwọn ọ̀tá wọn lọ́wọ́. Wọn yóò sì di ìkógun àti ìjẹ fún gbogbo àwọn ọ̀tá wọn,
So I will forsake the remnant of My inheritance and deliver them into the hands of their enemies. And they will become plunder and spoil to all their enemies,
15 nítorí pé wọ́n ti ṣe búburú ní ojú mi, wọ́n sì ti mú mi bínú láti ọjọ́ tí baba ńlá wọn ti jáde wá láti Ejibiti títí di òní yìí.”
because they have done evil in My sight and have provoked Me to anger from the day their fathers came out of Egypt until this day.’”
16 Pẹ̀lúpẹ̀lú, Manase pẹ̀lú ta ẹ̀jẹ̀ aláìṣẹ̀ sílẹ̀ púpọ̀ tí ó kún Jerusalẹmu láti ìkangun dé ìkangun ní ẹ̀gbẹ́ ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ tí ó ti mú Juda ṣẹ̀, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni, kí wọ́n lè ṣe ohun búburú ní ojú Olúwa.
Moreover, Manasseh shed so much innocent blood that he filled Jerusalem from end to end, in addition to the sin that he had caused Judah to commit, doing evil in the sight of the LORD.
17 Ní ti iṣẹ́ ìyókù ti ìjọba Manase, àti gbogbo ohun tí ó ṣe, àti fún ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ tí ó ṣẹ̀, ṣé wọ́n kò kọ wọ́n sínú ìwé ìtàn àwọn ọba Juda?
As for the rest of the acts of Manasseh, along with all his accomplishments and the sin that he committed, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah?
18 Manase sì sùn pẹ̀lú àwọn baba rẹ̀ wọ́n sì sin ín nínú ọgbà ààfin rẹ̀, ọgbà Ussa. Amoni ọmọ rẹ̀ sì jẹ ọba ní ipò rẹ̀.
And Manasseh rested with his fathers and was buried in his palace garden, the garden of Uzza. And his son Amon reigned in his place.
19 Amoni jẹ́ ẹni ọdún méjìlélógún nígbà tí ó jẹ ọba. Orúkọ màmá rẹ̀ a sì máa jẹ́ Meṣulemeti ọmọbìnrin Harusi: ó wá láti Jotba, ó sì jẹ ọba ní Jerusalẹmu fún ọdún méjì.
Amon was twenty-two years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem two years. His mother’s name was Meshullemeth daughter of Haruz; she was from Jotbah.
20 Ó sì ṣe búburú ní ojú Olúwa àti gẹ́gẹ́ bí baba rẹ̀ Manase ti ṣe.
And he did evil in the sight of the LORD, as his father Manasseh had done.
21 Ó rìn ní gbogbo ọ̀nà baba rẹ̀: Ó sì ń sin àwọn ère tí baba rẹ̀ ń sìn, ó sì ń tẹrí rẹ̀ ba fún wọn.
He walked in all the ways of his father, and he served and worshiped the idols his father had served.
22 Ó sì kọ Olúwa Ọlọ́run baba rẹ̀ sílẹ̀ kò sì rìn ní ọ̀nà ti Olúwa.
He abandoned the LORD, the God of his fathers, and did not walk in the way of the LORD.
23 Àwọn ìránṣẹ́ Amoni dìtẹ̀ lórí rẹ̀ wọ́n sì lu ọba pa ní àárín ilé rẹ̀.
Then the servants of Amon conspired against him and killed the king in his palace.
24 Nígbà náà àwọn ènìyàn ilẹ̀ náà pa gbogbo àwọn tí ó dìtẹ̀ sí ọba Amoni, wọ́n sì fi Josiah ọmọ rẹ̀ jẹ ọba ní ààyè rẹ̀.
But the people of the land killed all those who had conspired against King Amon, and they made his son Josiah king in his place.
25 Àti gẹ́gẹ́ bí ìyókù iṣẹ́ ti ìjọba Amoni àti ohun tí ó ṣe, ṣé wọn kò kọ wọ́n sínú ìwé ìtàn àwọn ọba Juda?
As for the rest of the acts of Amon, along with his accomplishments, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah?
26 Wọ́n sì sin ín sínú isà òkú nínú ọgbà Ussa. Josiah ọmọ rẹ̀ sì jẹ ọba ní ipò rẹ̀.
And he was buried in his tomb in the garden of Uzza, and his son Josiah reigned in his place.
