In the eighteenth year of King Jeroboam son of Nebat, Abijah began to reign over Judah.
2 ac el leum yac tolu in Jerusalem. Nina kial pa Maacah, acn natul Absalom.
He ruled for three years in Jerusalem. His mother's name was Maacah. She was the daughter of Abishalom.
3 El oru pacna kain ma koluk ma papa tumal ah tuh oru, ac el tia arulana inse pwaye nu sin LEUM GOD lal in oana David, papa tumun papa tumal ah.
He walked in all the sins that his father had committed before his time; his heart was not devoted to Yahweh his God as the heart of David, his ancestor, had been.
4 Tusruktu ke sripal David, LEUM GOD lal El tuh sang wen se natul Abijah in tuh leum tokol in Jerusalem, ac in karinganang tuh in oasr misla in acn Jerusalem.
Nevertheless, for David's sake, Yahweh his God gave him a lamp in Jerusalem by raising up his son after him in order to strengthen Jerusalem.
5 LEUM GOD El oru ma inge mweyen David el tuh oru ma El insewowo kac, ac tiana seakos ke ma El sapkin, sayen ma el oru nu sel Uriah, mwet Hit.
God did this because David had done what was right in his eyes; for all the days of his life, he had not turned away from anything that he commanded him, except only in the matter of Uriah the Hittite.
6 Mweun ma tuh mutawauk inmasrlol Rehoboam ac Jeroboam, orek pacna ke lusen moul lal Abijah.
Now there was war between Rehoboam and Jeroboam all the days of Abijah's life.
7 Ac ma nukewa saya ma Abijah el orala, simla oasr in [Sramsram Matu Ke Tokosra Lun Judah].
As for the other matters of Abijah, all that he did, are they not written in the book of the events of the kings of Judah? There was war between Abijah and Jeroboam.
8 Abijah el misa ac pukpuki in Siti sel David, ac Asa wen natul, el aolul in tokosra.
Abijah slept with his ancestors, and they buried him in the city of David. Asa his son became king in his place.
9 In yac aklongoul ke pacl in leum lal Tokosra Jeroboam lun Israel, Asa el tokosrala lun Judah,
In the twentieth year of Jeroboam king of Israel, Asa began to reign over Judah.
10 ac el leum ke yac angngaul sie in Jerusalem. Nina matu kial pa Maacah, acn natul Absalom.
He ruled forty-one years in Jerusalem. His grandmother's name was Maacah, the daughter of Abishalom.
11 Asa el oru ma akinsewowoye LEUM GOD, oana David, papa matu tumal, el tuh oru.
Asa did what was right in the eyes of Yahweh, as David, his ancestor, had done.
12 El lusla liki facl sac mukul ac mutan nukewa su orek kosro in nien alu lun mwet pegan, ac el tolla ma sruloala nukewa ma orekla sin tokosra meet lukel.
He expelled the cultic prostitutes from the land and removed all the idols that his ancestors had made.

He also removed Maacah, his grandmother, from being queen, because she had made a disgusting figure out of an Asherah pole. Asa cut down the disgusting figure and burned it at the Kidron Valley.
14 Asa el finne tia kunausla nufon nien alu lun mwet pegan uh, tuh el srakna inse pwaye nu sin LEUM GOD in moul lal nufon.
But the high places were not taken away. Nevertheless, Asa's heart was completely devoted to Yahweh all his days.
15 El likiya in Tempul kufwa nukewa ma papa tumal ah tuh kisakunla nu sin God, weang pac ma orekla ke gold ac silver ke ma el sifacna kisakunla.
He brought into the house of Yahweh the things that were set apart by his father, and his own things that had been set apart that were made of silver and gold, and vessels.
16 Tokosra Asa lun Judah, ac tokosra Baasha lun Israel, eltal amweuni ke lusen pacl eltal tokosra.
There was war between Asa and Baasha king of Israel, all their days.
17 Baasha el utyak mweuni acn Judah, ac mutawauk in kuhlusya acn Ramah in kosrala inkanek in ilyak ac illa liki acn Judah.
Baasha king of Israel, acted aggressively against Judah and built up Ramah, so that he might not allow anyone to leave or enter into the land of Asa king of Judah.
18 Ouinge Tokosra Asa el eis silver ac gold nukewa ma lula in Tempul ac in lohm sin tokosra, ac supwala kutu sin mwet kol lal in us som nu Damascus nu yorol Tokosra Benhadad lun Syria, wen natul Tabrimmon, wen natul Hezion, wi kas inge:
Then Asa took all the silver and gold left in the storerooms in the house of Yahweh, and the storerooms of the king's palace. He put it into the hands of his servants and sent it to Ben Hadad son of Tabrimmon son of Hezion, the king of Aram, who lived in Damascus. He said,
19 “Lela in oasr kupasr na ku inmasrlok kom, in oana akupasri inmasrlon papa tumuk ac papa tomom. Eis silver ac gold ingan mwe lung luk nu sum. Inge kunausla kupasr lom nu sel Tokosra Baasha lun Israel, tuh elan folokunla mwet mweun lal liki acn sik.”
“Let there be a covenant between me and you, as there was between my father and your father. Look, I have sent to you a gift of silver and gold. Break your covenant with Baasha king of Israel, so that he may leave me alone.”
20 Tokosra Benhadad el insese nu ke enenu lal Asa, ac supwala mwet kol fulat lun mwet mweun, ac un mwet mweun lalos, in som mweuni siti lun Israel. Elos sruokya acn Ijon, acn Dan, acn Abel Beth Maacah, acn apkuran nu ke Meoa Galilee, ac acn Naphtali nufon.
Ben Hadad listened to King Asa and sent the commanders of his armies, and they attacked the cities of Israel. They attacked Ijon, Dan, Abel of Beth Maacah, and all Kinnereth, together with all the land of Naphtali.
21 Ke Tokosra Baasha el lohng ke ma sikyak inge, el tila poti acn Ramah, ac el som nu Tirzah.
It came about that when Baasha heard this, he stopped building up Ramah and went back to Tirzah.
22 Na Tokosra Asa el supwalik sap ku nu in acn Judah nufon tuh mwet nukewa in kasru ac tella nufon eot ac sak ma Baasha el orekmakin in sang kuhlasak acn Ramah — wangin mwet ac tia wi. Asa el sang ma inge in kuhlasak acn Mizpah ac acn Geba. Geba pa sie siti in acn lun Benjamin.
Then King Asa made a proclamation to all Judah. No one was exempted. They carried away the stones and timbers of Ramah with which Baasha had been building up the city. Then King Asa used that building material to build up Geba of Benjamin and Mizpah.
23 Ma nukewa saya ma Tokosra Asa el orala, orekma pulaik lal ac siti srisrik ma el kuhlasak, ma inge nukewa simla oasr in [Sramsram Matu Ke Tokosra Lun Judah]. Tusruktu ke el matuoh, el sukapasla ke sie mas su sikyak ke nial.
As for the other matters of Asa, all his might, all that he did, and the cities he built, are they not written in the book of the events of the kings of Judah? But during his old age he was diseased in his feet.
24 Asa el misa ac pukpuki inkulyuk lun tokosra in Siti sel David, ac Jehoshaphat, wen natul, el aolul in tokosra.
Then Asa slept with his ancestors and was buried with them in the city of David his father. Jehoshaphat his son became king in his place.
25 In yac akluo ke pacl in leum lal Tokosra Asa in acn Judah, Nadab, wen natul Tokosra Jeroboam, el tokosrala lun Israel, ac el leum ke yac luo.
Nadab son of Jeroboam began to reign over Israel in the second year of Asa king of Judah; he reigned over Israel two years.
26 Nadab el orekma koluk lain LEUM GOD, ac kolla pac mwet Israel in oru ma koluk, oana papa tumal el oru meet lukel.
He did what was evil in the sight of Yahweh and walked in the way of his father, and in his own sin, by which he led Israel to sin.
27 Baasha, wen natul Ahijah in sruf lal Issachar, el pwapa sulal lainul Nadab, ac unilya ke Nadab ac mwet mweun lal elos kuhlusya ac akola in mweuni siti Gibbethon in acn Philistia.
Baasha son of Ahijah, of the family of Issachar, conspired against Nadab; Baasha killed him down at Gibbethon, which belonged to the Philistines, for Nadab and all Israel were laying siege to Gibbethon.
28 Ma inge sikyak ke yac aktolu in yac in leum lal Tokosra Asa lun Judah. Ouinge Baasha el aolulla Nadab in tokosra lun Israel.
In the third year of Asa king of Judah, Baasha killed Nadab and became king in his place.
29 In pacl se na el tokosrala el mutawauk in onela mwet nukewa in sou lal Jeroboam. In oana ma LEUM GOD El tuh fahk nu sin mwet kulansap lal, Ahijah mwet palu Shiloh, mwet nukewa in sou lal Jeroboam anwuki, ac tiana sie lula.
As soon as he was king, Baasha killed all the family of Jeroboam. He left none of Jeroboam's descendants breathing; in this way he destroyed his royal line, just as Yahweh had spoken by his servant Ahijah the Shilonite,
30 Sikyak ouinge mweyen Jeroboam el tuh purakak kasrkusrak lun LEUM GOD lun Israel ke ma koluk el orala, ac ke ma koluk ma el kolla mwet Israel in oru.
for the sins of Jeroboam which he committed and by which he led Israel to sin, because he provoked Yahweh, the God of Israel, to anger.
31 Ma saya nukewa ma Nadab el orala, simla oasr in [Sramsram Matu Ke Tokosra Lun Israel].
As for the other matters concerning Nadab, and all that he did, are they not written in the book of the events of the kings of Israel?
32 Tokosra Asa lun Judah ac Tokosra Baasha lun Israel eltal amweuni sie sin sie ke lusen na pacl eltal tokosra.
There was war between Asa and Baasha king of Israel all their days.
33 In yac aktolu ke pacl in leum lal Tokosra Asa lun Judah, Baasha, wen natul Ahijah, el tokosrala lun Israel nufon, ac el leum in Tirzah ke yac longoul akosr.
In the third year of Asa king of Judah, Baasha son of Ahijah began to reign over all Israel in Tirzah and he reigned twenty-four years.
34 El oru ma koluk lain LEUM GOD, ac kolla mwet Israel in oru pac ma koluk, in oana ke Tokosra Jeroboam el oru meet lukel.
He did what was evil in the sight of Yahweh and walked in the way of Jeroboam and in his sin by which he led Israel to sin.
