2 Kings 14
1 In the second year of Joas son of Joachaz, king of Israel, reigned Amasias son of Joas king of Juda.
Le Israel fia, Yehoas, Yehoahaz ƒe vi ƒe fiaɖuɖu ƒe ƒe evelia me la, Amazia, Yoas ƒe vi zu fia le Yuda.
2 He was five and twenty years old when he began to reign: and nine and twenty years he reigned in Jerusalem: the name of his mother was Joadan of Jerusalem.
Amazia xɔ ƒe blaeve vɔ atɔ̃ ɣe ma ɣi eye wòɖu fia le Yerusalem ƒe blaeve-vɔ-asiekɛ. Dadaa ŋkɔe nye Yehoadin, ame si tso Yerusalem.
3 And he did that which was right before the Lord, but yet not like David his father. He did according to all things that Joas his father did:
Amazia wɔ nu si dze Yehowa ŋu. Togbɔ be mede tɔgbuia David nu o hã la, enye fia nyui aɖe abe fofoa Yoas ene.
4 But this only, that he took not away the high places: for yet the people sacrificed and burnt incense in the high places.
Megbã nuxeƒewo le toawo dzi o, ale ameawo gasaa vɔ eye wogadoa dzudzɔ ʋeʋĩ le afi ma kokoko.
5 And when he had possession of the kingdom, he put his servants to death that had slain the king his father:
Esi Amazia kpɔ be fiaɖuƒe la li ke ɖe yeƒe asi me la, ewu dumegã siwo katã wu fofoa.
6 But the children of the murderers he did not put to death, according to that which is written in the book of the law of Moses, wherein the Lord commanded, saying: The fathers shall not be put to death for the children, neither shall the children be put to death for the fathers: but every man shall die for his own sins.
Ke mewu hlɔ̃dolawo ƒe viwo o, abe ale si Yehowa de se gblɔ woŋlɔ ɖe Mose ƒe Segbalẽa me ene bena, “Womawu fofowo ɖe viwo ƒe nu vɔ̃wo ta o, eye nenema ke womawu viwo ɖe fofowo ƒe nu vɔ̃wo ta o. Woawu ame sia ame ɖe eya ŋutɔ ko ƒe nu vɔ̃ ta.”
7 He slew of Edom in the valley of the Saltpits ten thousand men, and took the rock by war, and called the name thereof Jectehel, unto this day.
Amaziae wu Edomtɔ akpe ewo le Dze Balime. Exɔ Sela du la hã eye wòtrɔ ŋkɔ nɛ bena Yɔkteel. Ŋkɔ sia tsi eŋu va se ɖe egbe.
8 Then Amasias sent messengers to Joas son of Joachaz, son of Jehu king of Israel, saying: Come let us see one another.
Gbe ɖeka la, Yuda fia, Amazia ɖo du ɖe Israel fia Yehoas, Yehoahaz ƒe vi kple Yehu tɔgbuiyɔvi la, be ne enye ŋutsu la, wòakplɔ eƒe aʋakɔ vɛ yewoawɔ aʋa.
9 And Joas king of Israel sent again to Amasias king of Juda, saying: A thistle of Libanus sent to a cedar tree, which is in Libanus, saying: Give thy daughter to my son to wife. And the beasts of the forest, that are in Libanus, passed and trod down the thistle.
Fia Yehoas do lo sia na Amazia be, “Ŋuve sue aɖe le Lebanon towo dzi gblɔ na sedati be, ‘Tsɔ viwò nyɔnu nam maɖe na vinye ŋutsu.’ Le ɣe ma ɣi tututu la, lã wɔadã aɖe va nye avuzi le ŋuve la dzi eye wògbãe ɖe anyigba.
10 Thou hast beaten and prevailed over Edom, and thy heart hath lifted thee up: be content with the glory, and sit at home: why provokest thou evil, that thou shouldst fall, and Juda with thee?
Èɖu Edomtɔwo dzi eye wònye adegbeƒoƒo gã aɖe na wò. Ke aɖaŋu si maɖo na wò lae nye nàkpɔ ŋudzedze le wò dziɖuɖu ŋu eye nànɔ mia de kpoo! Nu ka ta nàhe dzɔgbevɔ̃e va ɖokuiwò kple Yuda siaa dzi?”
11 But Amasias did not rest satisfied. So Joas king of Israel went up, and he and Amasias king of Juda saw one another in Bethsames a town in Juda.
Ke Amazia gbe toɖoɖoe, ale Israel fia Yehoas ƒo ƒu aʋakɔ aɖe nu ɖe eŋu. Yoas kple Amazia ƒe aʋakɔwo do go le Bet Semes le Yuda.
12 And Juda was put to the worst before Israel, and they fled every man to their dwellings.
Ke Israel si Yuda eye eƒe aʋakɔ katã si yi aƒe.
13 But Joas king of Israel took Amasias, king of Juda the son of Joas, the son of Ochozias, in Bethsames, and brought him into Jerusalem: and he broke down the wall of Jerusalem, from the gate of Ephraim to the gate of the corner, four hundred cubits.
Israel fia Yehoas lé Amazia, Yuda fia, ame si nye Yoas ƒe vi, Ahazia ƒe vi le Bet Semes. Tete Yehoas yi Yerusalem eye wògbã Yerusalem ƒe gliwo ƒu anyi tso Efraimgbo la nu va se ɖe Dzogoedzigbo la gbɔ. Teƒe si wògbã la didi abe mita alafa ɖeka blaenyi ene.
14 And he took all the gold, and silver, and all the vessels, that were found in the house of the Lord, and in the king’s treasures, and hostages, and returned to Samaria.
Fia Yehoas lɔ sika kple klosalo kple sikakplu siwo le Yehowa ƒe gbedoxɔa me kple fiasã la ƒe nudzraɖoƒewo katã hekpe ɖe awɔbamewo ŋu eye wògbugbɔ yi Samaria.
15 But the rest of the acts of Joas, which he did, and his valour, wherewith he fought against Amasias king of Juda, are they not written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Israel?
Woŋlɔ nu mamlɛawo tso Yehoas ƒe fiaɖuɖu kple eƒe aʋawɔwɔ kple Yuda fia Amazia ŋu ɖe Israel fiawo ƒe ŋutinyagbalẽ me.
16 And Joas slept with his fathers, and was buried in Samaria, with the kings of Israel: and Jeroboam his son reigned in his stead.
Esi Yehoas ku la, woɖii ɖe Samaria le Israel fia bubuwo gbɔ eye via Yeroboam ɖu fia ɖe eteƒe.
17 And Amasias the son of Joas king of Juda lived, after the death of Joas son of Joachaz king of Israel fifteen years.
Ke Yuda fia Amazia, Yoas vi nɔ agbe ƒe wuiatɔ̃ le Israel fia Yehoas, Yehoahaz vi ƒe ku megbe.
18 And the rest of the acts of Amasias, are they not written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Juda?
Woŋlɔ Amazia ƒe ŋutinya mamlɛa ɖe Yuda fiawo ƒe ŋutinyagbalẽ me.
19 Now they made a conspiracy against him in Jerusalem: and he fled to Lachis. And they sent after him to Lachis, and killed him there.
Woɖo nugbe ɖe eƒe agbe ŋu le Yerusalem ale wòsi yi Lakis, ke eƒe futɔwo dɔ ame ɖa woyi Lakis ɖawui le afi ma.
20 And they brought him away upon horses, and he was buried in Jerusalem with his fathers in the city of David.
Wokɔ eƒe kukua ɖe sɔwo dzi va ɖi ɖe fiawo ƒe ameɖibɔ me le Yerusalem ƒe akpa si nye Fia David ƒe du la me.
21 And all the people of Juda took Azarias, who was sixteen years old, and made him king instead of his father Amasias.
Wotsɔ via, Azaria ɖo fiae ɖe eteƒe, esi Azaria xɔ ƒe wuiade ko.
22 He built Elath, and restored it to Juda, after that the king slept with his fathers.
Le fofoa ƒe ku megbe la, etu Elat eye wòxɔe na Yuda.
23 In the fifteenth year of Amasias son of Joas king of Juda, reigned Jeroboam the son of Joas king of Israel in Samaria, one and forty years:
Azɔ la, Yeroboam Evelia zu Israel fia le Yuda fia Amazia ƒe fiaɖuɖu ƒe ƒe wuiatɔ̃lia me. Yeroboam ɖu fia ƒe blaene-vɔ-ɖekɛ.
24 And he did that which was evil before the Lord. He departed not from all the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nabat, who made Israel to sin.
Enye fia vɔ̃ɖi aɖe le Yehowa ŋkume abe Yeroboam Gbãtɔ, Nebat ƒe vi, ame si kplɔ Israel de legbawo subɔsubɔ ƒe nu vɔ̃ me la ene.
25 He restored the borders of Israel from the entrance of Emath, unto the sea of the wilderness, according to the word of the Lord the God of Israel, which he spoke by his servant Jonas the son of Amathi, the prophet, who was of Geth, which is in Opher.
Yeroboam Evelia gbugbɔ Israel ƒe anyigba xɔ tso Lebo Hamat va se ɖe Araba ƒu la nu abe ale si Yehowa, Israel ƒe Mawu la gblɔe do ŋgɔ to Yona, Amitai ƒe vi, ame si nye Nyagblɔɖila tso Gat Hefer dzi la ene.
26 For the Lord saw the affliction of Israel that it was exceeding bitter, and that they were consumed even to them that were shut up in prison, and the lowest persons, and that there was no one to help Israel.
Nu sia va eme elabena Yehowa kpɔ xaxa gã si me Israel ɖo; kluviwo kple dzɔleaƒeawo siaa le fu kpem, evɔ xɔnametɔ aɖeke menɔ wo si o la dzi ɖa.
27 And the Lord did not say that he would blot out the name of Israel from under heaven, but he saved them by the hand of Jeroboam the son of Joas.
Gawu la, Yehowa megblɔ be yeatutu Israel ƒe ŋkɔ ɖa le anyigba dzi o, eya ta wòto Fia Yeroboam Evelia, Yehoas ƒe vi la dzi ɖe Israel.
28 But the rest of the acts of Jeroboam, and all that he did, and his velour, wherewith he fought, and how he restored Damascus, and Emath to Juda in Israel, are they not written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Israel?
Woŋlɔ Fia Yeroboam Evelia ŋutinya, nu siwo katã wòwɔ, ŋusẽ gã si wòkpɔ, eƒe aʋawɔwɔwo kple ale si wògbugbɔ Damasko kple Hamat, du siwo Yuda xɔ le Israel si la, xɔ la ɖe Israel fiawo ƒe ŋutinyagbalẽ me.
29 And Jeroboam slept with his fathers the kings of Israel, and Zacharias his son reigned in his stead.
Esi Yeroboam Evelia ku la, woɖii ɖe Israel Fia bubuwo gbɔ eye via Zekaria zu Israel Fia yeye la.
