1 Amaziah el tokosrala ke el yac longoul limekosr, ac el leum in Jerusalem ke yac longoul eu. Nina kial pa Jehoaddin, sie mutan Jerusalem.
Amaziah was twenty-five years old when he began to reign; and he reigned twenty-nine years in Jerusalem: and his mother's name was Jehoaddan, of Jerusalem.
2 Amaziah el oru ma su akinsewowoye LEUM GOD, tusruktu el tia oru ke insial nufon.
He did that which was right in the eyes of Jehovah, but not with a perfect heart.
3 Ke pacl se ku lun tokosrai lal oan inpaol, el uniya mwet pwapa luo ma uniya papa tumal ah.
Now it happened, when the kingdom was firmly in his grasp, that he killed his servants who had killed his father the king.
4 Tusruktu el tiana uniya tulik natultal, a el fahsrna ke ma LEUM GOD El sapkin in Ma Sap lal Moses ma fahk mu, “Papa ac nina ac fah tia anwuki ke ma koluk lun tulik natulos, ac tulik uh ac fah tia anwuki ke ma koluk lun papa ku nina. Sie mwet ac fah anwuki ke ma koluk su el sifacna orala.”
But he did not put their children to death, but did according to that which is written in the law in the scroll of Moses, as Jehovah commanded, saying, "The fathers shall not die for the children, neither shall the children die for the fathers; but every man shall die for his own sin."
5 Tokosra Amaziah el sap mukul nukewa in sruf lun Judah ac Benjamin ma yac longoulyak in kitakatelik nu ke kais sie un mwet mweun, fal nu ke sou lulap lalos. El sang in oasr captain fin tausin ac fin foko. Oasr mwet tolfoko tausin su solla ac akola nu ke mweun, ac elos mwet na sasla ke anwuk ke osra ac mwe loang.
Moreover Amaziah gathered Judah together, and ordered them according to their fathers' houses, under captains of thousands and captains of hundreds, even all Judah and Benjamin: and he numbered them from twenty years old and upward, and found them three hundred thousand chosen men, able to go forth to war, who could handle spear and shield.
6 Sayen mwet inge, el srukak pac mwet mweun siofok tausin sin mwet Israel, ac lupan silver ma el sang moli nu selos akuran sun oalkosr tausin paun.
He hired also one hundred thousand mighty men of valor out of Israel for one hundred talents of silver.
7 A sie mwet palu som nu yorol tokosra ac fahk nu sel, “Nimet us mwet mweun lun Israel inge in wi kom. LEUM GOD El tia wi mwet inge su ma in Tokosrai Epang.
A man of God came to him, saying, "O king, do not let the army of Israel go with you; for Jehovah is not with Israel, with all the people of Ephraim.
8 Sahp kom ac nunku mu elos ac oru tuh kom in kui ke pacl in mweun, tusruktu ku lun God mukena pa ac sot kutangla ku tia kutangla uh, na El ac lela mwet lokoalok lom in kutangkomla.”
But if you will go, take action, be strong for the battle. God will overthrow you before the enemy; for God has power to help, and to overthrow."
9 Amaziah el siyuk sin mwet palu sac, “Na ac fuka mani na yohk nga sang molelosla tari ah?” Mwet palu sac topuk ac fahk, “LEUM GOD El ku in folokonot yohk liki ma ingan!”
Amaziah said to the man of God, "But what shall we do for the hundred talents which I have given to the army of Israel?" The man of God answered, "Jehovah is able to give you much more than this."
10 Ouinge Amaziah el supwala un mwet se el moli ah, ac sap elos in folokla nu yen selos. Na elos folokla ac arulana kasrkusrak sin mwet Judah.
Then Amaziah separated them, the army that had come to him out of Ephraim, to go home again: therefore their anger was greatly kindled against Judah, and they returned home in fierce anger.
11 Amaziah el sifacna oru elan pulaik, ac kolla mwet lal ah nu Infahlfal Sohl. Elos mweun we ac uniya singoul tausin mwet mweun lun Edom,
Amaziah took courage, and led forth his people, and went to the Valley of Salt, and struck ten thousand of the people of Seir.
12 ac sruokya pac mwet singoul tausin saya. Elos pwanla mwet mweun inge nwe fin fulu se in siti Sela, ac siselosla nwe ten, ac elos misa ke eot ma oan ten.
The people of Judah carry away ten thousand alive, and brought them to the top of the rock, and threw them down from the top of the rock, so that they all were broken in pieces.
13 In pacl se inge, mwet mweun Israel ma Amaziah el tia lela in welul ah, elos mweuni siti lun Judah ma oan inmasrlon Samaria ac Beth Horon. Elos uniya mukul tolu tausin, ac eisla ma wap pukanten.
But the men of the army whom Amaziah sent back, that they should not go with him to battle, fell on the cities of Judah, from Samaria even to Beth Horon, and struck of them three thousand, and took much spoil.
14 Ke Amaziah el kutangla mwet Edom ac foloko nu yen sel, el use ma sruloala lalos, oakiya ke acn se, alu nu kac, ac el akosak pac mwe keng nu kac.
Now it happened, after that Amaziah had come from the slaughter of the Edomites, that he brought the gods of the people of Seir, and set them up to be his gods, and bowed down himself before them, and burned incense to them.
15 Ma inge aktoasrye LEUM GOD, ouinge El supwala mwet sie palu nu yorol Amaziah. Na mwet palu sac siyuk suwoswosang nu sel, “Efu ku kom alu nu sin god saya su tia ku in molela mwet lalos sifacna liki ku lom?”
Therefore the anger of Jehovah was kindled against Amaziah, and he sent to him a prophet, who said to him, "Why have you sought after the gods of the people, which have not delivered their own people out of your hand?"
16 Ke mwet palu sac srakna kaskas Amaziah el kutongol ac fahk, “Kut orala ngac mu kom pa ac fahk nu sin tokosra ma el ac oru? Nimet sifilpa kas, nga unikomi!” Mwet palu sac tui, tusruktu el fahkla kas se inge, “Inge nga etu lah LEUM GOD El wotela tari mu El ac kunauskomla, mweyen kom oru ma inge ac tia lohng ma nga fahk uh.”
It happened, as he talked with him, that the king said to him, "Have we made you one of the king's counselors? Stop. Why should you be struck down?" Then the prophet stopped, and said, "I know that God has determined to destroy you, because you have done this, and have not listened to my counsel."
17 Tokosra Amaziah lun Judah ac mwet pwapa lal elos pwapani in lain mwet Israel. Na Amaziah el supwala kas nu sel Tokosra Jehoash lun Israel, su wen natul Jehoahaz ac nutin natul Jehu, ac el srike in purakulak in mweun lainul.
Then Amaziah king of Judah consulted his advisers, and sent to Joash, the son of Jehoahaz the son of Jehu, king of Israel, saying, "Come, let us look one another in the face."
18 Jehoash el supwala top lal nu sel Amaziah ac fahk, “Sie pacl ah, sak kokul soko Fineol Lebanon el supwala kas se nu sin sak cedar soko ac fahk, ‘Ase acn nutum an in payuk sin wen nutik uh.’ Na kosro lemnak soko fahsryak lolongya sak kokul soko ah.
Joash king of Israel sent to Amaziah king of Judah, saying, "The thistle that was in Lebanon sent to the cedar that was in Lebanon, saying, 'Give your daughter to my son as his wife; then a wild animal that was in Lebanon passed by, and trampled down the thistle.
19 Inge, Amaziah, kom konkin mu kom kutangla mwet Edom, tuh nga fahk nu sum, wo kom in mutana yen sum. Efu kom ku purakak mwe tukulkul ma ac oru tuh kom ac mwet lom in musalla kac?”
You say to yourself that you have struck Edom; and your heart lifts you up to boast. Now stay at home. Why should you meddle with trouble, that you should fall, even you, and Judah with you?'"
20 Tusruktu Amaziah el tia lungse lohng. Ma inge oakwuk lun LEUM GOD nu sel Amaziah, tuh in kutangyukla el mweyen el alu nu sin ma sruloala lun mwet Edom.
But Amaziah would not listen; for it was of God, that he might deliver them into the hand of their enemies, because they had sought after the gods of Edom.
21 Ouinge Tokosra Jehoash lun Israel el som in mweuni Tokosra Amaziah lun Judah. Elos osun in Beth Shemesh in acn Judah.
So Joash king of Israel went up; and he and Amaziah king of Judah looked one another in the face at Beth Shemesh, which belongs to Judah.
22 Un mwet mweun lun Judah kutangyukla, ac elos kaingla nu yen selos.
Judah was defeated by Israel; and they fled every man to his tent.
23 Jehoash el sruokilya Amaziah ac usalla nu Jerusalem. Na Jehoash el kunausya pot lun siti uh inmasrlon Mutunpot Ephraim nwe ke Mutunpot in Sruwasrik. Lusen acn se ma musalla inge oasr ke yact luofoko.
Joash king of Israel took Amaziah king of Judah, the son of Joash the son of Jehoahaz, at Beth Shemesh, and brought him to Jerusalem, and broke down the wall of Jerusalem from the Ephraim Gate to the Corner Gate, six hundred eighty-nine feet.
24 El usla gold ac silver nukewa ma oan in Tempul, oayapa kufwa lun Tempul su karinginyuk sin tulik natul Obed Edom, wi pac ma saok in lohm sin tokosra, ac el us ma inge nukewa ac folokla nu Samaria. El usla pac kutu mwet sruoh welul.
He took all the gold and silver, and all the vessels that were found in God's house with Obed-Edom, and the treasures of the king's house, the hostages also, and returned to Samaria.
25 Yac singoul limekosr pa Tokosra Amaziah lun Judah el moul loes lukel Tokosra Jehoash lun Israel.
Amaziah the son of Joash king of Judah lived after the death of Joash son of Jehoahaz king of Israel fifteen years.
26 Ma nukewa saya ma Amaziah el orala ke pacl el tokosra, ke mutawauk nwe ke safla, simla oasr in [Sramsram Matu Ke Tokosra Lun Judah Ac Israel].
Now the rest of the acts of Amaziah, first and last, look, aren't they written in the book of the kings of Judah and Israel?
27 Ke pacl se na ma Amaziah el oru ma koluk lain LEUM GOD ah me, oasr na pwapa koluk orek lainul in Jerusalem, pwanang el tuh kaingla nu in siti Lachish. Tusruktu mwet lokoalok lal ukwalla nwe we ac unilya.
Now from the time that Amaziah turned away from following Jehovah, they made a conspiracy against him in Jerusalem. He fled to Lachish; but they sent after him to Lachish, and killed him there.
28 Utukla manol nu Jerusalem fin horse soko, ac pukpuki el inkulyuk lun mwet leum in Siti sel David.
They brought him on horses, and buried him with his fathers in the City of David.
