Kings III 15
1 And in the eighteenth year of the reign of Jeroboam son of Nabat, Abiu son of Roboam reigns over Juda.
Awo mu mwaka ogw’ekkumi n’omunaana ogw’obufuzi bwa Yerobowaamu mutabani wa Nebati, Abiyaamu n’atandika okufuga Yuda.
2 And he reigned three years over Jerusalem: and his mother's name [was] Maacha, daughter of Abessalom.
Yafugira mu Yerusaalemi emyaka esatu. Nnyina ye yali Maaka muwala wa Abusaalomu.
3 And he walked in the sins of his father which he wrought in his presence, and his heart was not perfect with the Lord his God, as [was] the heart of his father [David].
N’akola ebibi byonna kitaawe bye yakolanga, omutima gwe ne gutatuukirira mu maaso ga Mukama Katonda we ng’omutima gwa jjajjaawe Dawudi bwe gwali.
4 Howbeit for David's sake the Lord gave him a remnant, that he might establish his children after him, and might establish Jerusalem.
Naye ku lwa Dawudi, Mukama Katonda we n’amuteerawo ettabaaza mu Yerusaalemi era n’ayimusa ne mutabani we okumusikira, era n’okunyweza Yerusaalemi.
5 Forasmuch as David did that which was right in the sight of the Lord: he turned not from any thing that he commanded him all the days of his life.
Dawudi yakola ebirungi mu maaso ga Mukama, n’agondera ebiragiro bya Mukama ennaku zonna ez’obulamu bwe, okuggyako ensonga ya Uliya Omukiiti.
Ne wabangawo entalo wakati w’ennyumba ya Lekobowaamu n’ennyumba ya Yerobowaamu ennaku zonna ez’obulamu bwa Abiyaamu.
7 And the rest of the history of Abiu, and all that he did, behold, are not these written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Juda? And there was war between Abiu and Jeroboam.
N’ebyafaayo ebirala byonna eby’okufuga kwa Abiyaamu, ne bye yakola, tebyawandiikibwa mu kitabo eky’ebyomumirembe gya bassekabaka ba Yuda? Ne wabangawo entalo wakati wa Abiyaamu ne Yerobowaamu.
8 And Abiu slept with his fathers in the twenty-fourth year of Jeroboam; and he is buried with his fathers in the city of David: And Asa his son reigns in his stead.
Awo Abiyaamu ne yeebakira wamu ne bajjajjaabe era n’aziikibwa mu kibuga kya Dawudi. Asa mutabani we n’amusikira, n’alya obwakabaka.
9 In the four and twentieth year of Jeroboam king of Israel, Asa begins to reign over Juda.
Awo mu mwaka ogw’amakumi abiri ogw’obufuzi bwa Yerobowaamu kabaka wa Isirayiri, Asa n’alya obwakabaka bwa Yuda.
10 And he reigned forty-one years in Jerusalem: and his mother's name [was] Ana, daughter of Abessalom.
Yafugira mu Yerusaalemi emyaka amakumi ana mu gumu. Jjajjaawe omukazi nga ye Maaka muwala wa Abusaalomu.
11 And Asa did that which was right in the sight of the Lord, as David his father.
Asa n’akola ebirungi mu maaso ga Mukama, nga jjajjaawe Dawudi bwe yakola.
12 And he removed the sodomites out of the land, and abolished all the practices which his fathers had kept up.
N’agoba mu nsi abaalyanga ebisiyaga, era n’aggyawo n’ebifaananyi ebyakolebwa n’emikono byonna bajjajjaabe bye baakola.
13 And he removed Ana his mother from being queen, forasmuch as she gathered a meeting in her grove: and Asa cut down her retreats, and burnt them with fire in the brook of Kedron.
Era n’agoba ne jjajjaawe Maaka ku bwa namasole kubanga yali akoze empagi ya Asera. Asa n’agitema era n’agyokera ku kagga Kidulooni.
14 But he removed not the high places; nevertheless the heart of Asa was perfect with the Lord all his days.
Newaakubadde nga teyaggyawo bifo bigulumivu, omutima gwe gwali ku Mukama ennaku ze zonna.
15 And he brought in the pillars of his father, he even brought in his gold and silver pillars into the house of the Lord, and [his] vessels.
N’ayingiza mu yeekaalu ya Mukama effeeza, ne zaabu n’ebintu ebirala kitaawe bye yawaayo ne Asa yennyini bye yawaayo.
16 And there was war between Asa and Baasa king of Israel all their days.
Ne wabangawo entalo wakati wa Asa ne Baasa kabaka wa Isirayiri ennaku zonna ez’okufuga kwabwe.
17 And Baasa king of Israel went up against Juda, and built Rama, so that no one should go out or come in for Asa king of Juda.
Baasa kabaka wa Isirayiri n’alumba Yuda n’azingiza Laama obutaganya muntu n’omu okufuluma wadde okuyingira mu kitundu kya Asa kabaka wa Yuda.
18 And Asa took all the silver and the gold that was found in the treasures of the house of the Lord, and in the treasures of the king's house, and gave them into the hands of his servants; and king Asa sent them out to the son of Ader, the son of Taberema son of Azin king of Syria, who lived in Damascus, saying,
Awo Asa n’addira effeeza ne zaabu yonna eyali esigadde mu ggwanika lya yeekaalu ya Mukama n’ey’olubiri lwe, n’abikwasa abakungu be, n’abiweereza Benikadadi mutabani wa Tabulimmoni, muzzukulu wa Keziyoni, eyali kabaka wa Busuuli ng’afugira e Ddamasiko.
19 Make a covenant between me and you, and between my father and your father: behold! I have sent forth to you gold and silver [for] gifts: come, break your league with Baasa king of Israel, that he may go up from me.
N’ayogera nti, “Wabeewo endagaano wakati wo nange, ng’eyaliwo wakati wa kitaawo ne kitange. Laba nkuweereza ekirabo ekya ffeeza ne zaabu, omenyewo kaakano endagaano yo ne Baasa kabaka wa Isirayiri, anveeko.”
20 And the son of Ader listened to king Asa, and sent the chiefs of his forces to the cities of Israel; and they struck Ain, Dan, and Abel of the house of Maacha, and all Chennereth, as far as the whole land of Nephthali.
Benikadadi n’akkiriziganya ne kabaka Asa era n’aweereza abaduumizi b’eggye lye okulumba ebibuga bya Isirayiri. N’akuba Iyoni, ne Ddaani, ne Aberubesumaaka ne Kinnerosi yonna ng’okwo kw’otadde Nafutaali.
21 And it came to pass when Baasa heard it, that he left off building Rama, and returned to Thersa.
Awo Baasa bwe yakiwulira n’alekeraawo okuzimba Laama, n’addukira e Tiruza.
22 And king Asa charged all Juda without exception: and they take up the stones of Rama and its timbers [with] which Baasa was building; and king Asa built with them upon the whole hill of Benjamin, and the watch-tower.
Kabaka Asa n’awa ekiragiro mu Yuda yonna nga kikwata ku buli muntu. Ne batwala amayinja ag’e Laama n’embaawo Baasa bye yazimbisanga, kabaka Asa n’abizimbisa Geba ekya Benyamini, ne Mizupa.
23 And the rest of the history of Asa, and all his mighty deeds which he wrought, and the cities which he built, behold, are not these written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Juda? Nevertheless in the time of his old age he was diseased in his feet.
Ebyafaayo ebirala byonna eby’omu mirembe gya Asa, n’obuwanguzi bwe era n’ebibuga bye yazimba, tebyawandiikibwa mu kitabo eky’ebyomumirembe gya bassekabaka ba Yuda? Kyokka mu bukadde bwe, n’alwala ebigere.
24 And Asa slept with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers in the city of David his father: and Josaphat his son reigns in his stead.
Awo Asa ne yeebakira wamu ne bajjajjaabe n’aziikibwa mu kibuga kya jjajjaawe Dawudi. Yekosafaati, mutabani we n’amusikira, n’alya obwakabaka.
25 And Nabat son of Jeroboam reigns over Israel in the second year of Asa king of Juda, and he reigned two years in Israel.
Nadabu mutabani wa Yerobowaamu n’alya obwakabaka bwa Isirayiri mu mwaka ogwokubiri ogw’obufuzi bwa Asa kabaka wa Yuda. Yafugira Isirayiri emyaka ebiri.
26 And he did that which was evil in the sight of the Lord, and walked in the way of his father, and in his sins wherein he caused Israel to sin.
N’akola ebibi mu maaso ga Mukama, ng’atambulira mu ngeri za kitaawe ne mu kibi kye, ebyaleetera Isirayiri okwonoona.
27 And Baasa son of Achia, [who was] over the house of Belaan son of Achia, conspired against him, and struck him in Gabathon of the Philistines; for Nabat and all Israel were besieging Gabathon.
Awo Baasa mutabani wa Akiya ow’omu nnyumba ya Isakaali n’amukolera olukwe, n’amuttira e Gibbesoni ekibuga ky’Abafirisuuti, Nadabu ne Isirayiri yenna bwe baali bakitaayizza.
28 And Baasa killed him in the third year of Asa son of Asa king of Juda; and reigned in his stead.
Baasa n’atta Nadabu mu mwaka ogwokusatu ogw’obufuzi bwa Asa kabaka wa Yuda, ye n’alya obwakabaka bwa Isirayiri.
29 And it came to pass when he reigned, that he struck the whole house of Jeroboam, and left none that breathed of Jeroboam, until he has destroyed him utterly, according to the word of the Lord which he spoke by his servant Achia the Selonite,
Amangwago nga kyajje alye obwakabaka, n’atta ennyumba ya Yerobowaamu yonna n’atalekaawo muntu n’omu omulamu. Yabazikiriza bonna ng’ekigambo kya Mukama kye yayogerera mu muddu we Akiya Omusiiro,
30 for the sins of Jeroboam, who led Israel into sin, even by his provocation wherewith he provoked the Lord God of Israel.
olw’ebibi bya Yerobowaamu bye yakola, era bye yayonoonyesa Isirayiri, n’okusunguwaza ne bisunguwaza Mukama Katonda wa Isirayiri.
31 And the rest of the history of Nabat, and all that he did, behold, are not these written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?
Ebyafaayo ebirala eby’omu mirembe gya Nadabu, ne bye yakola, tebyawandiikibwa mu kitabo eky’ebyomumirembe gya bassekabaka ba Isirayiri?
32 [And there was a war between Asa and Baasa king of Israel in all their days. ]
Ne wabangawo entalo wakati wa Asa ne Baasa kabaka wa Isirayiri, ennaku zonna ez’okufuga kwabwe.
33 And in the third year of Asa king of Juda, Baasa the son of Achia begins to reign over Israel in Thersa, twenty and four years.
Awo mu mwaka ogwokusatu ogw’obufuzi bwa Asa kabaka wa Yuda, Baasa mutabani wa Akiya n’afuuka kabaka wa Isirayiri yonna e Tiruza, era n’afugira emyaka amakumi abiri mu ena.
34 And he did that which was evil in the sight of the Lord, and walked in the way of Jeroboam the son of Nabat, and in his sins, as he caused Israel to sin.
N’akola ebibi mu maaso ga Mukama, ng’atambulira mu ngeri za Yerobowaamu, ne mu kibi kye, kye yayonoonyesa Isirayiri.
