2 Chronicles 14
1 So Abijah slept with his fathers, and they buried him in the city of David: and Asa his son reigned in his stead. In his days the land was quiet ten years.
Kendo Abija notho kaka kwerene kendo noyike e Dala Maduongʼ mar Daudi. Asa wuode nobedo ruoth kare kendo e kinde mar lochne ne nitiere kwe kuom higni apar.
2 And Asa did [that which was] good and right in the eyes of the LORD his God:
Asa notimo gik mabeyo kendo makare e nyim Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasache.
3 For he took away the altars of the strange [gods], and the high places, and brake down the images, and cut down the groves:
Nogolo kende mag misango mag pinje ma oko kaachiel gi kuonde motingʼore malo komuko kite milamo kendo ngʼado sirni mag Ashera.
4 And commanded Judah to seek the LORD God of their fathers, and to do the law and the commandment.
Nochiwo ne Juda chik ni mondo omany Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasach kweregi kendo orit chikene kod buchene.
5 Also he took away out of all the cities of Judah the high places and the images: and the kingdom was quiet before him.
Nomuko kuonde motingʼore malo kod kende mag misango miwangʼoe ubani e miech Juda, kendo pinyruoth nobedo gi kwe e ndalone.
6 And he built fenced cities in Judah: for the land had rest, and he had no war in those years; because the LORD had given him rest.
Nogero mier madongo mag Juda mochiel gohinga motegno nimar piny ne nigi kwe. Onge ngʼama ne kedo kode ndalogo nikech Jehova Nyasaye nomiye yweyo.
7 Therefore he said unto Judah, Let us build these cities, and make about [them] walls, and towers, gates, and bars, [while] the land [is] yet before us; because we have sought the LORD our God, we have sought [him], and he hath given us rest on every side. So they built and prospered.
Asa nowacho ne jo-Juda niya, “Wageruru miechgi kendo waket ohinga molworogi man-gi kuonde maboyo mag ngʼicho gi rangeye kod lodi milorogi godo. Piny pod marwa nimar waseluwo Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachwa, newaluwe to en nomiyowa yweyo koni gi koni.” Omiyo negigedo kendo negidhi nyime maber.
8 And Asa had an army [of men] that bare targets and spears, out of Judah three hundred thousand; and out of Benjamin, that bare shields and drew bows, two hundred and fourscore thousand: all these [were] mighty men of valour.
Asa ne nigi jolweny ma jo-Juda alufu mia adek moritore gi kuodi madongo kod tonge, kod jo-Benjamin alufu mia ariyo gi piero aboro manoritore gi okumba gi atungʼ. Magi duto ne gin jolweny mathuondi mager.
9 And there came out against them Zerah the Ethiopian with an host of a thousand thousand, and three hundred chariots; and came unto Mareshah.
Zera ja-Kush nomonjogi kod jolweny mangʼeny kaachiel gi geche mag lweny mia adek manobiro nyaka Maresha.
10 Then Asa went out against him, and they set the battle in array in the valley of Zephathah at Mareshah.
Asa nodhi mondo orom kode kendo negikawo kuondegi mag lweny e Holo mar Zefatha man but Maresha.
11 And Asa cried unto the LORD his God, and said, LORD, [it is] nothing with thee to help, whether with many, or with them that have no power: help us, O LORD our God; for we rest on thee, and in thy name we go against this multitude. O LORD, thou [art] our God; let not man prevail against thee.
Eka Asa noywak ne Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasache kowacho niya, “Jehova Nyasaye, onge ngʼato moro machalo kodi manyalo konyo joma nyap kuom joma roteke makmana in. Yie ikonywa nikech wageno kuomi yaye Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachwa kendo wabiro rado gi jolweny mangʼenygi nikech Nyingi. Yaye Jehova Nyasaye in Nyasachwa kik iwe dhano adhana loyi.”
12 So the LORD smote the Ethiopians before Asa, and before Judah; and the Ethiopians fled.
Eka Jehova Nyasaye nonego jo-Kush e nyim Asa kod Juda. Jo-Kush noringo
13 And Asa and the people that [were] with him pursued them unto Gerar: and the Ethiopians were overthrown, that they could not recover themselves; for they were destroyed before the LORD, and before his host; and they carried away very much spoil.
kendo Asa kod jolweny mage nolawogi nyaka Gerar. Jo-Kush mangʼeny nonegi mane ok ginyal konyo nikech Jehova Nyasaye gi jolweny mage ema notimo mano. Jo-Juda noyako gik mangʼeny ahinya.
14 And they smote all the cities round about Gerar; for the fear of the LORD came upon them: and they spoiled all the cities; for there was exceeding much spoil in them.
Negiketho mier matindo duto mokiewo gi Gerar nikech luoro moa kuom Jehova Nyasaye nomakogi. Ne giyako mier duto mane ni kanyo nikech ne nitiere gik moko mangʼeny kanyo.
15 They smote also the tents of cattle, and carried away sheep and camels in abundance, and returned to Jerusalem.
Negituro kunde dhok kendo negipeyo rombe, diek kod ngamia mathoth bangʼe negidok Jerusalem.
