2 Mpanjaka 17
1 Tamin’ ny taona faharoa ambin’ ny folo nanjakan’ i Ahaza, mpanjakan’ ny Joda, no vao nanjakan’ i Hosea, zanak’ i Elaha, tamin’ ny Isiraely tao Samaria; ary nanjaka Sivy taona izy.
In the twelfth year of Achaz king of Juda began Osee the son of Ela to reign in Samaria over Israel nine years.
2 Ary nanao izay ratsy eo imason’ i Jehovah izy, nefa tsy dia tahaka ny nataon’ ny mpanjakan’ ny Isiraely teo alohany.
And he did evil in the eyes of the Lord, only not as the kings of Israel that were before him.
3 Niakatra hanafika azy Salmanesera, mpanjakan’ i Asyria, ka dia tonga mpanompony nandoa hetra ho azy Hosea.
Against him came up Salamanassar king of the Assyrians; and Osee became his servant, and rendered him tribute.
4 Ary ny mpanjakan’ i Asyria nahita fa niodina Hosea; fa efa naniraka olona tany amin’ i So, mpanjakan’ i Egypta, izy sady tsy nanatitra hetra ho an’ ny mpanjakan’ i Asyria intsony tahaka ny fanaony isan-taona; koa dia nanidy azy ny mpanjakan’ i Asyria sy namatotra azy tao an-trano-maizina.
And the king of the Assyrians found iniquity in Osee, in that he sent messengers to Segor king of Egypt, and brought not a tribute to the king of the Assyrians in that year: and the king of the Assyrians besieged him, and bound him in the prison-house.
5 Dia niakatra ny mpanjakan’ i Asyria ka nanenika ny tany; ary niakatra tany Samaria izy ka nanao fahirano azy telo taona.
And the king of the Assyrians went up against all the land, and went up to Samaria, and besieged it [for] three years.
6 Ary tamin’ ny taona fahasivy nanjakan’ i Hosea no nahafahan’ ny mpanjakan’ i Asyria an’ i Samaria, dia nentiny ho babo tany Asyria ny Isiraely ka namponeniny tao Hala sy teo amoron’ i Habora (dia ny onin’ i Gozana izany) ary teny amin’ ny tanànan’ ny Mediana.
In the ninth year of Osee the king of the Assyrians took Samaria, and carried Israel away to the Assyrians, and settled them in Alae, and in Abor, [near] the rivers of Gozan, and [in] the mountains of the Medes.
7 Ary ny nahatongavan’ izany dia noho ny nanotan’ ny Zanak’ Isiraely tamin’ i Jehovah Andriamaniny, Izay nitondra azy nivoaka avy tany amin’ ny tany Egypta ho afaka tamin’ ny tànan’ i Farao, mpanjakan’ i Egypta, fa natahotra izay andriamani-kafa izy
For it came to pass that the children of Israel [had] transgressed against the Lord their God, who had brought them up out of the land of Egypt, from under the hand of Pharao king of Egypt, and they feared other gods,
8 ka nandeha araka ny fanaon’ ny jentilisa izay noroahin’ i Jehovah tsy ho eo anoloan’ ny Zanak’ Isiraely sy araka ny didy izay nataon’ ny mpanjakan’ ny Isiraely.
and walked in the statutes of the nations which the Lord cast out before the face of the children of Israel, and of the kings of Israel as many as did [such things],
9 Ary ny Zanak’ Isiraely dia nanao teny tsy marina ho enti-manakona an’ i Jehovah Andriamaniny ka nanao fitoerana avo teny amin’ ny tanànany rehetra, dia hatramin’ ny tilikambon’ ny mpiambina ka hatramin’ ny tanàna mimànda.
and [in those] of the children of Israel as many as secretly practised customs, not as [they should have done], against the Lord their God:
10 Ary nanangana tsangam-bato-tsampy sy Aseraha ho azy teny amin’ ny tendrombohitra avo rehetra sy teny ambanin’ ny hazo maitso rehetra izy;
and they built for themselves high places in all their cities, from the tower of the watchmen to the fortified city. And they made for themselves pillars and groves on every high hill, and under every shady tree.
11 ary nandoro ditin-kazo manitra teny amin’ ny fitoerana avo rehetra izy, tahaka ny nataon’ ny jentilisa izay noroahin’ i Jehovah tsy ho eo anoloany, sady nanao zavatra ratsy ka nampahatezitra an’ i Jehovah.
And burned incense there on all high places, as the nations [did] whom the Lord removed from before them, and dealt with familiar spirits, and they carved [images] to provoke the Lord to anger.
12 Fa nanompo sampy, izay nandraran’ i Jehovah azy hoe: Aza manao izany zavatra izany ianareo.
And they served the idols, of which the Lord said to them, Ye shall not do this thing [against] the Lord.
13 Nefa ny mpaminany rehetra sy ny mpahita rehetra dia nasain’ i Jehovah nananatra ny Isiraely sy ny Joda hoe: Mialà amin’ ny lalanareo ratsy, ary tandremo ny lalàko sy ny didiko, araka ny lalàna rehetra izay nandidiako ny razanareo sy izay nanirahako ny mpaminany mpanompoko ho aminareo.
And the Lord testified against Israel and against Juda, even by the hand of all his prophets, [and] of every seer, saying, Turn ye from your evil ways, and keep my commandments and my ordinances, and all the law which I commanded your fathers, [and] all that I sent to them by the hand of my servants the prophets.
14 Kanefa tsy nihaino izy, fa nanamafy ny hatony, tahaka ny razany, izay tsy nino an’ i Jehovah Andriamaniny.
But they hearkened not, and made their neck harder than the neck of their fathers.
15 Ary nolaviny ny didiny sy ny fanekeny izay nataony tamin’ ny razany mbamin’ ny teni-vavolombelony izay nananarany azy; ary nandeha nanaraka ny zava-poana izy, ka dia tonga zava-poana koa ary nanaraka ny jentilisa manodidina azy, izay efa nandraran’ i Jehovah azy mba tsy halainy tahaka.
And they kept not any of his testimonies which he charged them; and they walked after vanities, and became vain, and after the nations round about them, concerning which the Lord had charged them not to do accordingly.
16 Ary nahafoy ny didin’ i Jehovah Andriamaniny rehetra izy ka nanao sarin-javatra an-idina ho an’ ny tenany, dia ombilahy kely roa, ary nanao Aseraha koa izy sady niankohoka teo anatrehan’ izay rehetra eny amin’ ny lanitra ary nanompo an’ i Bala.
They forsook the commandments of the Lord their God, and made themselves graven images, [even] two heifers, and they made groves, and worshipped all the host of heaven, and served Baal.
17 Ary nampandeha ny zananilahy sy ny zananivavy hamaky ny afo izy, sady nanao fankatovana sy sikidy ary nivaro-tena hanao izay ratsy eo imason’ i Jehovah ka nampahatezitra Azy.
And they caused their sons and their daughters to pass through the fire, and used divinations and auspices, and sold themselves to work wickedness in the sight of the Lord, to provoke him.
18 Koa dia tezitra indrindra tamin’ ny Isiraely Jehovah, dia nesoriny tsy ho eo imasony izy, ka tsy nisy sisa afa-tsy ny firenen’ i Joda ihany.
And the Lord was very angry with Israel, and removed them out of his sight; and there was only left the tribe of Juda quite alone.
19 Ary ny Joda koa aza tsy mba nitandrina ny didin’ i Jehovah Andriamaniny, fa nandeha araka izay rehetra nataon’ ny Isiraely koa.
Nay even Juda kept not the commandments of the Lord their God, but they walked according to the customs of Israel which they practised, and rejected the Lord.
20 Dia narian’ i Jehovah ny taranak’ Isiraely rehetra ka nampahoriny sy natolony ho eo an-tànan’ ny mpamabo azy mandra-panaisony azy tsy ho eo imasony.
And the Lord was angry with the whole seed of Israel, and troubled them, and gave them into the hand of them that spoiled them, until he cast them out of his presence.
21 Fa nendahany niala tamin’ ny taranak’ i Davida ny Isiraely; ary ny olona nampanjaka an’ i Jeroboama, zanak’ i Nebata; ary Jeroboama dia nampiala ny Isiraely tsy hanaraka an’ i Jehovah ka nampanota azy indrindra.
Forasmuch as Israel revolted from the house of David, and they made Jeroboam the son of Nabat king: and Jeroboam drew off Israel from following the Lord, and led them to sin a great sin.
22 Ary ny Zanak’ Isiraely nandeha tamin’ ny fahotana rehetra nataon’ i Jeroboama, fa tsy niala tamin’ izany izy
And the children of Israel walked in all the sin of Jeroboam which he committed; they departed not from it,
23 Mandra-panaisotr’ i Jehovah ny Isiraely tsy ho eo anatrehany, araka izay nampilazainy ny mpaminany mpanompony rehetra. Ka dia lasan-ko babo niala tamin’ ny taniny ho any Asyria ny Isiraely ka mbola any mandraka androany.
until the Lord removed Israel from his presence, as the Lord spoke by all his servants the prophets; and Israel was removed from off their land to the Assyrians until this day.
24 Ary ny mpanjakan’ i Asyria nitondra olona avy tany Babylona sy Kota sy Ava sy Hamata sy Sefarvaima ka namponina azy teny amin’ ny tanànan’ i Samaria nisolo ny Zanak’ Isiraely; dia nahazo an’ i Samaria ireny ka nitoetra teny amin’ ny tanànany.
And the king of Assyria brought from Babylon the men of Chutha, [and men] from Aia, and from Aemath, and Seppharvaim, and they were settled in the cities of Samaria in the place of the children of Israel: and they inherited Samaria, and were settled in its cities.
25 Ary raha vao nonina tao ireny, dia tsy natahotra an’ i Jehovah; ary Jehovah kosa nampandeha ny liona hamely azy, ka nahafatesan’ ireny izy.
And it was so at the beginning of their establishment there [that] they feared not the Lord, and the Lord sent lions among them, and they slew some of them.
26 Dia hoy ny olona tamin’ ny mpanjakan’ i Asyria: Ny firenena izay nafindranao sy namponeninao eny amin’ ny tanànan’ i Samaria tsy mahalala izay tokony hatao amin’ ny Andriamanitry ny tany any, ka dia nampandeha ny liona hamely azy Izy; ary, indro, nahafatesan’ ireny izy noho ny tsi-fahalalany ny fanaon’ ny Andriamanitry ny tany.
And they spoke to the king of the Assyrians, saying, The nations whom thou hast removed and substituted in the cities of Samaria [for the Israelites], know not the manner of the God of the land: and he has sent the lions against them, and, behold, they are slaying them, because they know not the manner of the God of the land.
27 Ary ny mpanjakan’ i Asyria nandidy hoe: Iraho ho any ny anankiray amin’ ny mpisorona izay nentinareo ho babo avy tany, ary aoka handeha izy ka hitoetra any, dia aoka hampianatra azy izay tokony hatao amin’ ny Andriamanitry ny tany any izy.
And the king of the Assyrians commanded, saying, Bring some [Israelites] thence, and let them go and dwell there, and they shall teach them the manner of the God of the land.
28 Dia tonga ny mpisorona anankiray avy tamin’ izay efa nentiny ho babo avy tany Samaria ka nonina tao Betela, dia nampianatra azy izay fahatahorana an’ i Jehovah.
And they brought one of the priests whom they had removed from Samaria, and he settled in Baethel, and taught them how they should fear the Lord.
29 Kanefa ny isam-pirenena mbola samy nanao ny andriamaniny avy ka nametraka azy tao amin’ ny trano eny amin’ ny fitoerana avo, izay nataon’ ny mponina tao Samaria, eny, ny isam-pirenena dia samy nanao tao amin’ ny tanàna nitoerany avy.
But the nations made each their own gods, and put them in the house of the high places which the Samaritans [had] made, each nation in the cities in which they dwelt.
30 Koa ny olona avy any Babylona dia nanao an’ i Sokota-benota; ary ny olona avy any Kota nanao an’ i Nergala; ary ny olona avy any Hamata nanao an’ i Asima;
And the men of Babylon made Socchoth Benith, and the men of Chuth made Ergel, and the men of Haemath made Asimath.
31 ary ny Avita nanao an’ i Nibaza sy Tartaka; ary ny Sefarvita nandoro ny zanany tamin’ ny afo ho an’ i Adrameleka Anameleka, andriamanitr’ i Sefarvaima.
And the Evites made Eblazer and Tharthac, and the [inhabitant] of Seppharvaim [did evil] when they burnt their sons in the fire to Adramelech and Anemelech, the gods of Seppharvaim.
32 Dia natahotra an’ i Jehovah ny olona, ary izay avy tamin’ ny ankabiazam-bahoaka no notendreny ho mpisorona amin’ ny fitoerana avo, ary ireny no nanatitra fanatitra tao amin’ ny trano eny amin’ ny fitoerana avo nisolo ny vahoaka.
And they feared the Lord, yet they established their abominations in the houses of the high places which they made in Samaria, each nation in the city in which they dwelt: and they feared the Lord, and they made for themselves priests of the high places, and sacrificed for themselves in the house of the high places.
33 Jehovah dia natahorany ihany, kanefa mbola nanompo ny andriamaniny avy koa izy araka ny fanaon’ ny firenena izay efa nangalana azy avy.
And they feared the Lord, and served their gods according to the manner of the nations, whence [their lords] brought them.
34 Mandraka androany dia mbola manao araka ny fanaony teo ihany izy: tsy dia matahotra an’ i Jehovah, ary tsy dia manao araka ny fomban-drazany, na araka ny lalàna sy ny didy izay nandidian’ i Jehovah ny taranak’ i Jakoba, izay nataony hoe Isiraely
Until this day they did according to their manner: they fear [the Lord], and they do according to their customs, and according to their manner, and according to the law, and according to the commandment which the Lord commanded the sons of Jacob, whose name he made Israel.
35 Sady nanaovany fanekena sy nodidiany hoe: Aza matahotra izay andriamani-kafa, na miankohoka eo anatrehany, na manompo azy, na namono zavatra hatao fanaritra ho azy;
And the Lord made a covenant with them, and charged them, saying, Ye shall not fear other gods, neither shall ye worship them, nor serve them, nor sacrifice to them:
36 Fa Jehovah, Izay nitondra anareo nivoaka avy tany amin’ ny tany Egypta tamin’ ny hery lehibe sy ny sandry nahinjitra, dia aoka Izy ihany no hatahoranareo, ary ho eo anatrehany no hiankohofanareo, ary ho Azy no hamonoanareo zavatra hatao fanatitra;
but only to the Lord, who brought you up out of the land of Egypt with great strength and with a high arm: him shall ye fear, and him shall ye worship; to him shall ye sacrifice.
37 Ary ny didy sy ny fitsipika sy ny lalàna ary ny teny izay nosoratany ho anareo no aoka hotandremanareo hatao mandrakariva; ary aza matahotra izay andriamani-kafa;
Ye shall observe continually the ordinances, and the judgments, and the law, and the commandments which he wrote for you to do; and ye shall not fear other gods.
38 Ary ny fanekena izay nataoko taminareo dia aza hadinoinareo; ary aza matahotra izay andriamani-kafa ianareo;
Neither shall ye forget the covenant which he made with you: and ye shall not fear other gods.
39 Fa Jehovah Andriamanitrareo no aoka hatahoranareo; dia Izy no hamonjy anareo amin’ ny tanan’ ny fahavalonareo rehetra.
But ye shall fear the Lord your God, and he shall deliver you from all your enemies.
40 Nefa tsy nety nihaino izy, fa nanao tahaka ny fanaony taloha ihany.
Neither shall ye comply with their practice, which they follow.
41 Ka dia natahotra an’ i Jehovah ihany ireo firenena ireo, kanefa nanompo ny sarin-javatra voasokitra izy hatramin’ ny zanany sy ny zafiny koa aza; tahaka ny fanaon’ ny razany ihany no nataon’ ireny mandraka androany.
So these nations feared the Lord, and served their graven images: yea, their sons and their son's sons do until this day even as their fathers did.
