2 Chronicles 25
1 Amaziah was 25 years old when he became the king [of Judah], and he ruled from Jerusalem for 29 years. His mother was Jehoaddin; she was from Jerusalem.
Agtawen ni Amazias iti 25 idi nagrugi isuna nga agturay a kas ari; nagturay isuna iti 29 a tawen idiay Jerusalem. Joadan ti nagan ti inana a taga-Jerusalem.
2 Amaziah did many things that pleased Yahweh, but he did not do them enthusiastically.
Inaramidna ti umno iti imatang ni Yahweh ngem saan nga iti napasnek a puso.
3 As soon as he was in complete control of his kingdom, he caused to be executed the officials who had murdered his father.
Ket napasamak nga apaman a napabileg ti panagturayna, pinapatayna dagiti adipen a nangpapatay iti amana nga ari.
4 But he did not command their sons to be executed; he obeyed what was in the laws that Moses had written. In those laws Yahweh had commanded, “People must not be executed because of [what] their children [have done], and children must not be executed for [what] their parents [have done]. People must be executed only for the sins that they themselves have committed.”
Ngem saanna a pinapatay dagiti annak dagiti nangpapatay iti amana, ngem tinungpalna ti nailanad iti linteg, iti libro ni Moises a kas imbilin ni Yahweh, “Saan a mapapatay dagiti amma gapu kadagiti annak, wenno saan a mapapatay dagiti annak gapu kadagiti amma. Ngem ketdi, mapapatay ti maysa a tao gapu iti bukodna a basol.”
5 Amaziah summoned the men of [the tribes of] Judah and Benjamin to come to Jerusalem, and there he put them in groups, each clan in a group by themselves. Then he appointed officers to command each group. Some officers commanded 100 men and some commanded 1,000 men. They counted the men who were at least 20 years old; altogether there were 300,000 men. They were all men who were prepared to be in the army, and able to [fight well, ] using spears and shields.
Maysa pay, inummong ni Amazias ti Juda ket inrehistrona ida segun kadagiti balay dagiti kapuonand. Nangdutok kadagiti mangipangulo iti rinibu ken kadagiti mangipangulo iti ginasut— iti entero a Juda ken Benjamin. Binilangna ida manipud iti agtawen iti duapulo ken agpangato, ket agdagupda iti 300, 000 a napili a lallaki a makabael a makigubat, lallaki a makaammo nga agiggem iti gayang ken kalasag.
6 Amaziah also hired 100,000 capable soldiers from Israel and paid almost four tons of silver for them.
Nangtangdan pay isuna iti 100, 000 a mannakigubat a lallaki manipud iti Israel iti sangagasut a talento a pirak.
7 But a prophet came to him and said, “Your majesty, you must not allow those soldiers from Israel to march with your soldiers, because Yahweh does not help the people of the tribe of Ephraim or from [anywhere else in] Israel.
Ngem adda maysa a tao ti Dios a napan kenkuana ket kinunana, “Apo Ari, saanmo a palubosan ti armada ti Israel a sumurot kenka, ta awan ni Yahweh iti Israel-awan kadagiti tattao ti Efraim.
8 Even if your soldiers go and fight courageously in battles, God will cause your enemies to defeat you; do not forget that God has the power to help armies or to cause them to be defeated.”
Ngem uray no mapanka a situtured ken sipipigsa iti gubat, parmekennakanto ti Dios iti sangoanan dagiti kabusor; ta adda pannakabalin ti Dios a tumulong wenno mangparmek.”
9 Amaziah asked that prophet, “If I do that, what about the huge amount of silver that I paid to hire those soldiers from Israel?” The prophet replied, “Yahweh is able to pay you back more money than you paid [to hire those soldiers].”
Kinuna ni Amazias iti tao ti Dios, “Ngem ania ti aramidenmi iti sangagasut a talento nga intedko iti armada ti Israel?” Insungbat ti tao ti Dios, “Ad-adu pay ti maited ni Yahweh kenka ngem iti dayta.”
10 So Amaziah told those soldiers from Israel to return home. They left to go home, but they were very angry with the king of Judah [for not allowing them to stay and fight].
Isu nga insina ni Amazias ti armada nga immay kenkuana a naggapu iti Efraim; pinagawidna manen ida. Isu a nakaungetda iti kasta unay iti Juda ket nagawidda a napalalo ti pungtotda.
11 Then Amaziah became brave, and he led his army to the Salt Valley. There they killed 10,000 men from the Edom people-group.
Timmured ni Amazias ket impanguloanna dagiti tattaona a mapan iti tanap ti Asin; sadiay, pinarmekna ti sangapulo a ribu a lallaki ti Seir.
12 The army of Judah also captured 10,000 others, and took them to the top of a cliff and threw them all down over the cliff, with the result that their corpses were all smashed to pieces.
Tiniliw met ti armada ti Juda ti dadduma pay a sangapulo a ribu a sibibiag. Impanda ida iti tapaw ti derraas sada intappuak ida sadiay, isu a narumekda amin.
13 While that was happening, the soldiers from Israel whom Amaziah had sent home after not allowing them to fight along with his soldiers, raided cities and towns in Judea, from Samaria [city] to Beth-Horon [town]. They killed 3,000 people and took away a great amount of valuable things.
Ngem ti armada a pinagawid ni Amazias tapno saanda a makikadua kenkuana a mapan iti gubat ket nagsubli, rinautda dagiti siudad ti Juda manipud iti Samaria agingga iti Bet-horon. Pinapatayda ti 3, 000 kadagiti tattao ket adu ti sinamsamda.
14 When Amaziah returned [to Jerusalem] after his army had slaughtered the soldiers from Edom, he brought the idols that were worshiped by the people of Edom. He set them up to be his own gods. Then he bowed down to [worship] them and offered sacrifices to them.
Ita, idi nagsubli ni Amazias kalpasan iti panangpapatayda kadagiti Edomita, inyawidna dagiti didiosen dagiti tattao iti Seir, ket insaadna dagitoy a kas didiosenna. Nagdaydayaw isuna kadagitoy ken nangpuor isuna iti insenso a maipaay kadagitoy.
15 Because of that, Yahweh was very angry with Amaziah. He sent a prophet to him, who said, “Why do you worship these foreign gods that were not even able to save their own people when your army attacked them?”
Isu a nakapungtot ni Yahweh kenni Amazias. Nangibaon ni Yahweh iti profeta kenkuana ket sinaludsodna, “Apay nga agdaydayawka kadagiti didiosen dagiti tattao a saan man laeng a makaisalakan kadagiti bukodda a tattao manipud iti imam?”
16 While he was still speaking, the king said to him, “We certainly did not appoint you to be one of my advisors. So stop [talking]! If you say anything more, [I will tell my soldiers to] kill you!” So the prophet said, “I know that God has determined to get rid of you, because you have [begun to] worship idols, and have not heeded my advice.” Then the prophet said nothing more.
Ket napasamak a kabayatan nga agsasao ti profeta kenkuana, kinuna ti ari kenkuana, “Inaramiddaka kadi a mammagbaga iti ari? Agsardengkan. No agsaoka pay, bilinik dagiti soldadok a papatayendaka!” Ket nagsardeng ti profeta ket kinunana, “Ammokon nga inkeddeng ti Dios a dadaelendaka, gapu ta inaramidmo dagitoy ket saanmo nga impangag ti balakadko.”
17 Some time later Amaziah, the king of Judah, consulted his advisors. Then he sent a message to Jehoash, the king of Israel. He wrote, “Come here and let’s talk together.”
Kalpasanna, nakiuman ni Amazias nga ari ti Juda kadagiti mammagbaga ket nangipatulod kadagiti mensahero kenni Joas nga ari ti Israel a putot a lalaki ni Jeocaz a putot a lalaki ni Jehu, a kunana, “Umayka ket agginnubatta a rupanrupa.”
18 But Jehoash replied to King Amaziah, “One time a thistle growing [in the mountains] in Lebanon sent a message to a cedar tree saying, ‘Let your daughter marry my son.’ But a wild animal in Lebanon came along and trampled the thistle under its feet.
Ngem pinagsubli ni Joas nga ari ti Israel dagiti mensahero kenni Amazias nga ari ti Juda a kunana, “Adda maysa a siitan a kayo nga adda iti Libano ket nangipatulod iti mensahe iti maysa a sedro idiay Libano a kunana, 'Itedmo ti anakmo a babai iti anakko a lalaki a kas asawana,' ngem adda narungsot nga ayup a limmabas idiay Libano ket binaddebaddekanna ti siitan a kayo.
19 [The meaning of what I am saying is that] you are saying to yourself that your army has defeated the army of Edom, so you have become very proud. But you should stay at your home. It would not be good for you to cause trouble, which would result in you and your kingdom of Judah being destroyed.”
Kinunam, 'Kitaem, pinarmekko ti Edom,' ket limmastogka. Ipannakelmo ti panagballigim ngem agtalinaedka iti pagtaengam, ta apay a dadaelem ken itinnagmo ti bagim, sika agraman ti Juda a kaduam?”
20 But Amaziah refused to heed Jehoash’s message. That happened because God wanted Jehoash’s army to defeat them, because they were worshiping the gods of Edom.
Ngem saan a dimngeg ni Amazias gapu ta pagayatan ti Dios a mapasamak daytoy iti kasta ket maipaimana dagiti tattao ti Juda iti ima dagiti kabusorda, gapu ta dimmawatda iti pammagbaga kadagiti didiosen ti Edom.
21 So Jehoash’s army attacked. Their two armies faced each other at Beth-Shemesh [city] in Judah.
Isu a rimmaut ni Joas nga ari ti Israel; isuna ken ni Amazias nga ari ti Juda ket nagsinnangoda idiay Bet-semes a masakupan ti Juda.
22 The army of Judah was badly defeated by the army of Israel, and all the soldiers of Judah fled to their homes.
Naparmek ti Juda iti sangoanan ti Israel ket naglibas a nagawid ti tunggal mannakigubat.
23 King Jehoash’s army also captured King Amaziah there. Then he brought Amaziah to Jerusalem, and his soldiers tore down the wall [that was around the city], from the Ephraim Gate to the Corner Gate. That was a section that was about 600 feet long.
Tiniliw ni Joas nga ari ti Israel ni Amazias nga ari ti Juda a putot a lalaki ni Joas, a putot a lalaki ni Ahazias, idiay Bet-semes. Impanna isuna idiay Jerusalem ket rinebbana ti pader ti Jerusalem manipud iti Ruangan ti Efraim agingga iti Ruangan ti Suli, agrukod daytoy iti uppat a gasut a kubiko.
24 His soldiers also carried away the gold and silver and other valuable furnishings from the temple which the descendants of Obed-Edom had previously been guarding. They also took away the valuable things in the palace, and they took to Samaria some prisoners whom they had captured.
Innalana dagiti amin a balitok ken pirak, dagiti amin a banag iti balay ti Dios a banbantayan dagiti kaputotan ni Obed Edom, ken dagiti napapateg a banbanag iti balay ti ari, nangala pay kadagiti tattao a kas balud sada nagsubli idiay Samaria.
25 King Jehoash of Israel died, and King Amaziah of Judah lived for 15 years after that.
Nagbiag ni Amazias nga ari ti Juda a putot a lalaki ni Joas iti 15 a tawen kalpasan iti ipapatay ni Joas nga ari ti Israel a putot a lalaki ni Joacaz.
26 An account of all the other things that Amaziah did while he was the king [of Judah] is written in the scroll called ‘The History of the Kings of Judah and Israel’.
Dagiti dadduma a banbanag maipapan kenni Amazias, manipud rugi agingga iti pagleppasan ket saan aya a naisurat dagitoy iti Libro dagiti Ari ti Juda ken Israel?
27 From the time that Amaziah started to disobey Yahweh, some men in Jerusalem planned to kill him. He was able to escape to Lachish [city], but those who wanted to kill him sent another group of people to Lachish and killed him there.
Ita, manipud iti tiempo a nagsukir ni Amazias kenni Yahweh, inrugida ti bimmusor kenkuana idiay Jerusalem. Nagkamang isuna iti Lakis ngem nangibaonda kadagiti lallaki a mangsurot kenkuana idiay Lakis ket pinapatayda isuna sadiay.
28 They put his corpse on a horse and brought it back to Jerusalem and buried it where his ancestors [had been buried] in the part of Jerusalem called ‘The City of David’.
Insakayda ti bangkayna iti kabalio sada insubli idiay Jerusalem ket intanemda isuna iti nakaitaneman dagiti kapuonanna iti Siudad ti Juda.
