< Luo Chronicle 33 >

1 Manasseh el yac singoul luo ke el tokosrala lun Judah, ac el leum in Jerusalem ke yac lumngaul limekosr.
Manasseh was twelve years old when he began to reign, and he reigned fifty-five years in Jerusalem.
2 Manasseh el oru ma koluk lain LEUM GOD, in oana ouiya fohkfok lun mutanfahl su LEUM GOD El luselosla liki facl sac ke pacl mwet lal ah akola in utyak nu we.
He did that which was evil in the LORD’s sight, after the abominations of the nations whom the LORD cast out before the children of Israel.
3 El sifilpa musaela acn in alu lun mwet pegan ma Hezekiah, papa tumal, el tuh kunausla. Ac el musaela loang in alu nu sel Baal, ac orala ma sruloala ke god mutan Asherah, ac el alu nu ke itu uh.
For he built again the high places which Hezekiah his father had broken down; and he raised up altars for the Baals, made Asheroth, and worshipped all the army of the sky, and served them.
4 El musaela loang lun mwet pegan in Tempul, acn se na ma LEUM GOD El fahk mu mwet uh in alu nu sel we nwe tok.
He built altars in the LORD’s house, of which the LORD said, “My name shall be in Jerusalem forever.”
5 Ke nien tukeni luo inkul lun Tempul, el musaela loang in alu nu ke itu uh.
He built altars for all the army of the sky in the two courts of the LORD’s house.
6 El kisakunla wen natul in mwe kisa firir ke Infahlfal Hinnom. Oayapa el sramsram nu sin ngun fohkfok ac orek mwenmen in kiapu mwet. El som nu yurin mwet inutnut, mwet susfa, ac mwet sramsram nu sin mwet misa. El oru ma koluk na yohk lain LEUM GOD, ac akkasrkusrakyal.
He also made his children to pass through the fire in the valley of the son of Hinnom. He practised sorcery, divination, and witchcraft, and dealt with those who had familiar spirits and with wizards. He did much evil in the LORD’s sight, to provoke him to anger.
7 El likiya sie ma sruloala in Tempul, acn se ma LEUM GOD El tuh fahk kac nu sel David ac nu sel Solomon wen natul, mu, “In acn se inge Jerusalem, ac in Tempul se inge, pa acn se ma nga sulela inmasrlon acn nukewa lun sruf singoul luo in Israel, tuh in pa acn se mwet uh in alu nu sik we.
He set the engraved image of the idol, which he had made, in God’s house, of which God said to David and to Solomon his son, “In this house, and in Jerusalem, which I have chosen out of all the tribes of Israel, I will put my name forever.
8 Ac mwet Israel fin akos ma nukewa nga sapkin nu selos, ac karinganang Ma Sap nukewa su Moses, mwet kulansap luk, el sang nu selos, na nga ac fah tia lela in lisyukla elos liki facl se su nga sang nu sin papa matu tumalos.”
I will not any more remove the foot of Israel from off the land which I have appointed for your fathers, if only they will observe to do all that I have commanded them, even all the law, the statutes, and the ordinances given by Moses.”
9 Manasseh el kolla mwet Judah in oru ma koluk yohk liki ma koluk lun mutunfacl saya ma LEUM GOD El tuh lusla liki acn ma mwet lal elos fahsryak nu we.
Manasseh seduced Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem, so that they did more evil than did the nations whom the LORD destroyed before the children of Israel.
10 LEUM GOD El sensenkakunul Manasseh ac mwet lal, a elos tia lungse lohng.
The LORD spoke to Manasseh and to his people, but they didn’t listen.
11 Ouinge LEUM GOD El lela mwet kol fulat lun mwet mweun lun Assyria in utyak ac mweuni acn Judah. Elos sruokilya Manasseh, sang ka uh srumasrla manol ac kaprilya ac usalla nu Babylon.
Therefore the LORD brought on them the captains of the army of the king of Assyria, who took Manasseh in chains, bound him with fetters, and carried him to Babylon.
12 Keok lulap lal akpusiselyal, ac el forla nu sin LEUM GOD lal, ac kwafe tuh Elan kasrel.
When he was in distress, he begged the LORD his God, and humbled himself greatly before the God of his fathers.
13 Ac God El insese nu ke mwe siyuk lal, ac lela tuh elan folokla nu Jerusalem ac sifilpa leumi mwet uh. Ma inge akkalemye nu sel Manasseh lah LEUM GOD El God.
He prayed to him; and he was entreated by him, and heard his supplication, and brought him again to Jerusalem into his kingdom. Then Manasseh knew that the LORD was God.
14 Tukun ma inge Manasseh el sifilpa laesla fulatan pot se lik ma oan kutulap in Siti sel David, mutawauk ke sie acn ke infahlfal se apkuran nu ke Unon in Kof Gihon, ac fahla nu epang nu ke Mutunpot Ik, ke ipin acn se ke siti uh ma pangpang Ophel. In kais sie siti in acn Judah ma oasr pot ku we, el supwala un mwet mweun in muta we wi captain lalos.
Now after this, he built an outer wall to David’s city on the west side of Gihon, in the valley, even to the entrance at the fish gate. He encircled Ophel with it, and raised it up to a very great height; and he put valiant captains in all the fortified cities of Judah.
15 El srakla god lun mutunfacl saya liki Tempul, ac ma sruloala se ma el tuh filiya we, oayapa loang lun mwet pegan ma oan ke inging soko Tempul ah oan we, ac in kutu pacna acn saya in acn Jerusalem. El usla ma inge nukewa nu likin siti uh, ac sisla we.
He took away the foreign gods and the idol out of the LORD’s house, and all the altars that he had built in the mountain of the LORD’s house and in Jerusalem, and cast them out of the city.
16 El oayapa akwoyela loang se ma mwet uh alu nu sin LEUM GOD we, ac el kisakin mwe kisa in akinsewowo ac mwe kisa in sang kulo fac. El sapkin nu sin mwet Judah nukewa in alu nu sin LEUM GOD lun Israel.
He built up the LORD’s altar, and offered sacrifices of peace offerings and of thanksgiving on it, and commanded Judah to serve the LORD, the God of Israel.
17 Mwet uh finne orek kisa in kutu pac acn in alu saya, tuh kisa lalos uh ma na nu sin LEUM GOD mukena.
Nevertheless the people still sacrificed in the high places, but only to the LORD their God.
18 Ma nukewa saya ma Manasseh el oru, wi pac pre lal nu sin LEUM GOD ac kas lun mwet palu su kaskas nu sel Inen LEUM GOD lun Israel, ma inge nukewa simla in [Sramsram Matu Ke Tokosra Lun Israel].
Now the rest of the acts of Manasseh, and his prayer to his God, and the words of the seers who spoke to him in the name of the LORD, the God of Israel, behold, they are written amongst the acts of the kings of Israel.
19 Pre lun tokosra, ac top lun LEUM GOD nu sel, ac srumunyen ma koluk el orala meet liki el auliyak — aok, orekma koluk lal, ac acn in alu lun mwet pegan su el musaela, ac ma sruloala in luman god mutan Asherah ma el orala, ac ma sruloala saya ma el alu nu kac — simla nufon ke [Sramsram Matu Lun Mwet Palu].
His prayer also, and how God listened to his request, and all his sin and his trespass, and the places in which he built high places and set up the Asherah poles and the engraved images before he humbled himself: behold, they are written in the history of Hozai.
20 Manasseh el misa ac pukpuki ke lohm sin tokosra, ac Amon wen natul, el aolul in tokosra.
So Manasseh slept with his fathers, and they buried him in his own house; and Amon his son reigned in his place.
21 Amon el yac longoul luo ke el tokosrala lun Judah, ac el leum in Jerusalem ke yac luo.
Amon was twenty-two years old when he began to reign; and he reigned two years in Jerusalem.
22 El oru ma koluk lain LEUM GOD, oana Manasseh, papa tumal ah oru, ac el alu pac nu ke ma sruloala ma papa tumal el tuh alu nu kac.
He did that which was evil in the LORD’s sight, as did Manasseh his father; and Amon sacrificed to all the engraved images which Manasseh his father had made, and served them.
23 Tusruktu el tia oana papa tumal ah, mweyen el tiana akpusiselyal ac forla nu sin LEUM GOD, ac ma koluk lal uh yohk liki na papa tumal ah.
He didn’t humble himself before the LORD, as Manasseh his father had humbled himself; but this same Amon trespassed more and more.
24 Mwet pwapa lal Amon elos orek pwapa koluk lainul, ac unilya in lohm sin tokosra.
His servants conspired against him, and put him to death in his own house.
25 Ac mwet Judah elos uniya mwet ma tuh unilya Amon, ac srakulak Josiah, wen natul, in tokosra.
But the people of the land killed all those who had conspired against King Amon; and the people of the land made Josiah his son king in his place.
