2 Chronicles 28
1 Ahaz was 20 years old when he became the king [of Judah]. He ruled from Jerusalem for 16 years. His ancestor King David was a good king, but Ahaz was not like David. He constantly disobeyed Yahweh
Agtawen ni Ahaz iti duapulo idi nangrugi isuna nga agturay a kas ari, ket nagturay isuna iti 16 a tawen idiay Jerusalem. Saanna nga inaramid ti nalinteg iti imatang ni Yahweh a kas koma iti inaramid ti kapuonanna a ni David.
2 and was as sinful as the kings of Israel had been. He made idols of the god Baal.
Ngem ketdi, nagbiag isuna kadagiti wagas dagiti ari ti Israel; nangsukog pay isuna kadagiti imahen ni Baal.
3 He burned incense in Hinnom Valley. He even [killed some of] his own sons [and] offered [them] as sacrifices to be completely burned. That imitated the disgusting customs of the people-groups who previously lived there, people whom Yahweh had expelled as the Israelis advanced through the land.
Malaksid iti daytoy, nangpuor isuna iti insenso idiay tanap ti Ben Hinnom ket pinuoranna dagiti annakna a kas daton a maipuor, sinurotna dagiti makarimon nga ugali dagiti bunggoy dagiti tattao a pinapanaw ni Yahweh iti imatang dagiti tattao ti Israel.
4 Ahaz offered sacrifices [to idols] at shrines on hilltops and under every big green tree.
Nangidaton ken nangpuor isuna iti insenso kadagiti pagdaydayawan, iti tapaw dagiti turturod ken iti sirok ti tunggal nalangto a kayo.
5 Therefore Yahweh his God allowed his army to be defeated by the army of the king of Syria. They captured many soldiers of Judah and took them as prisoners to Damascus. The army of the king of Israel also defeated the army of Judah and killed very many of their soldiers.
Ngarud, impaima isuna ni Yahweh a Dios ni Ahaz iti ari ti Aram. Pinarmek isuna dagiti Arameo ket innalada ti adu kadagiti tattaona a kas balud, impanda ida idiay Damasco. Naiyawat pay ni Ahaz iti ima ti ari ti Israel a nangparmek kenkuana iti napalalo a pannakapapatay dagiti tattao.
6 In one day the army of Remaliah’s son, King Pekah [of Israel], killed 120,000 soldiers in Judah. That happened because [the people of] Judah had abandoned Yahweh, the God whom their ancestors [worshiped].
Ta pinapatay ni Peka a putot a lalaki ni Remalias ti 120, 000 a soldado idiay Juda iti maysa laeng nga aldaw, amin dagitoy ket natutured a lallaki, gapu ta tinallikudanda ni Yahweh a Dios dagiti kapuonanda.
7 Zicri, a warrior from the tribe of Ephraim, killed king Ahaz’s son Maaseiah, Azrikam the officer in charge of the palace, and Elkanah, the king’s assistant.
Pinapatay ni Zikri a maysa a nabileg a lalaki manipud iti Efraim da Maaseyas a putot a lalaki ti ari, ni Azrikam nga opisial a mangimatmaton iti palasio ken ni Elkana a sumaruno iti saad ti ari.
8 The soldiers of Israel captured 200,000 of the people of Judah, including many wives and sons and daughters [of the soldiers of Judah]. They also seized and took back to Samaria many valuable things.
Innala ti armada ti Israel a kas balud ti 200, 000 nga assawa a babbai, annak a lallaki ken annak a babbai a kakabagianda. Nakaad-adu pay ti sinamsamda, nga inyawidda idiay Samaria.
9 But a prophet of Yahweh whose name was Obed was there [in Samaria]. He went out of the city to meet the army when it returned to Samaria. He said to them, “Because Yahweh, the God whom your ancestors [belonged to], was angry with [the people of] Judah, he allowed you to defeat them. But God has seen the cruel way that you slaughtered them.
Ngem adda profeta ni Yahweh ti adda sadiay nga agnagan iti Oded. Rimmuar isuna tapno sabatenna ti armada nga umum-uneg iti Samaria. Kinunana kadakuada, “Gapu ta nakapungtot iti Juda ni Yahweh a Dios dagiti kapuonanyo, impaimana ida kadakayo. Ngem pinapatayyo ida nga addaan iti pungtot a dumanon sadi langit.
10 And now you want to [sin by] causing men and women from Judah to become your slaves, but you have certainly also sinned against Yahweh our God!
Ket ita, pangpanggepenyo a tagaboen dagiti lallaki ken babbai ti Juda ken Jerusalem. Ngem saan kadi a nagbiddutkayo gapu kadagiti bukodyo a basbasol kenni Yahweh a Diosyo?
11 So listen to me! Send back [to Judah] your fellow-countrymen whom you have captured, because Yahweh is extremely angry with you [for what you did to them].”
Ita ngarud, dumngegkayo kaniak; pagawidenyo dagiti balud, dagiti innalayo manipud kadagiti bukodyo a kakabsat, ta napalalo ti pungtot ni Yahweh kadakayo.”
12 Then some of the leaders of [the tribe of] Ephraim—Azariah the son of Jehohanan, Berekiah the son of Meshillemoth, Jehizkiah the son of Shallum, and Amasa the son of Hadlai—rebuked those who were returning from the battle.
Ket sumagmamano kadagiti mangidadaulo kadagiti tattao ti Efraim - da Azarias a putot a lalaki ni Johanan, Berekias a putot a lalaki ni Sallum, ken ni Amasa a putot a lalaki ni Hadlai ti nangsupring kadagiti nagsubli manipud iti gubat,
13 They said to them, “You must not bring those prisoners here! If you do that, Yahweh will consider that we are guilty of sinning. We are already guilty of committing many sins; do you want to cause us to be even more guilty by committing another sin? God is already very angry with [us people of] Israel!”
kinunada kadakuada, “Saanyo nga ipan ditoy dagiti balud ta pinanggepyo ti maysa a banag a mangyeg iti basol kadatayo a maibusor kenni Yahweh, a mainayon kadagiti basbasol ken panagsalungasingtayo; gapu ta dakkel unayen dagiti panagsalungasingtayo ken adda iti napalalo a pungtot iti Israel.”
14 So, while their leaders and others were watching, the soldiers released the prisoners, and also gave back to them the valuable things that they had captured.
Isu nga imbati dagiti soldado dagiti balud ken dagiti nasamsam iti sangoanan dagiti mangidadaulo ken iti entero a taripnong.
15 The leaders who were selected took some of the clothes that the soldiers had taken from the prisoners and gave those clothes back to the people who were naked. They also gave to the prisoners sandals and other clothes and things to eat and drink, and they gave them olive oil to rub on their wounds. They gave donkeys to those who were very weak, in order that they could ride on them. Then they led them all to Jericho, the city that had many palm trees. Then those leaders [of Israel] returned to Samaria.
Timmakder dagiti lallaki a nadutokan a nainaganan ket innalada dagiti balud, ket nangalada kadagiti kawes kadagiti samsam ket kinawesanda dagiti amin a lamo-lamo. Kinawesanda ida ken inikkanda ida kadagiti sandalias. Inikkanda ida iti makan ken mainom. Inagasanda dagiti sugatda ken insakayda dagiti nakapuy kadagiti asno. Insublida ida kadagiti pampamiliada idiay Jerico, (a maaw-awagan a Siudad dagiti Palma). Kalpasanna, nagsublida idiay Samaria.
16 About that time, King Ahaz sent [a message] to the king of Assyria requesting help.
Iti dayta a tiempo, nangibaon ni Ari Ahaz kadagiti mensahero kadagiti ari ti Asiria tapno dawatenna kadakuada a tulonganda isuna.
17 [He did that because the army from] the Edom people-group had come again and attacked Judah and taken away many of the people of Judah as prisoners.
Ta iti maminsan manen ket immay rinaut dagiti Edomita ti Juda, ket nangalada kadagiti balud.
18 At the same time, men from Philistia had raided/attacked towns in the foothills and in the southern desert of Judah. They had captured Beth-Shemesh, Aijalon, and Gederoth [cities], as well as Soco, Timnah and Gimzo [towns] and the nearby villages.
Sinakup pay dagiti Filisteo dagiti siudad kadagiti arisadsad ken iti Negev ti Juda. Sinakupda ti Betsemes, Aijalon, Gederot, Soco agraman dagiti barriona, Timna agraman dagiti barriona, ken uray pay ti Gimzo agraman dagiti barriona. Napanda nagnaed kadagidiay a luglugar.
19 Yahweh [allowed those things to happen in order to] humble king Ahaz, because he had encouraged the people of Judah to do wicked things and had disobeyed Yahweh very much.
Ta impababa ni Yahweh ti Juda gapu kenni Ahaz nga ari ti Israel; ta nagtignay isuna a sidadangkes idiay Juda ket nadagsen unay ti basolna kenni Yahweh.
20 Tiglath-Pileser, the king of Assyria, sent [his army saying that they would] help Ahaz, but instead of helping him, they caused him to experience trouble.
Immay ni Tilgat Pileser nga ari ti Asiria ket riniribokna isuna imbes a papigsaenna koma.
21 Ahaz’s [soldiers] took some of the [valuable] things from the temple and from the king’s palace and from other leaders of Judah and sent them to the king of Assyria [to pay him to help them], but the king of Assyria refused to help Ahaz.
Ta sinamsaman ni Ahaz ti balay ni Yahweh, dagiti balay ti ari ken dagiti mangidadaulo, tapno itedna dagiti napapateg a banbanag kadagiti ari ti Asiria-ngem saan a nakatulong daytoy kenkuana.
22 While King Ahaz was experiencing those troubles, he disobeyed Yahweh even more.
Iti tiempo ti panagsagabana, daytoy nga Ari Ahaz ket inyad-addana pay ti nagbasol kenni Yahweh.
23 He offered sacrifices to the gods that were worshiped in Damascus, whose [army] had defeated his [army]. He thought, “The gods that are worshiped by the kings of Syria have helped them, so I will offer sacrifices to those gods in order that they will help me.” But worshiping those gods caused Ahaz and all of Israel to be ruined.
Ta nagidaton isuna kadagiti didiosen ti Damasco, dagiti didiosen a nangparmek kenkuana. Kinunana, “Gapu ta tinulongan ida dagiti didiosen dagiti ari ti Siria, agidatonak ngarud kadakuada tapno tulongandak.” Ngem dagitoy ti nakaigapuan ti pannakadadaelna ken iti amin nga Israel.
24 Ahaz gathered all the furnishings [that were used] in the temple and broke them into pieces. He locked the doors of the temple and set up altars [for worshiping idols] at every street corner in Jerusalem.
Inummong ni Ahaz dagiti alikamen iti balay ti Dios ket binurak-burakna dagitoy. Inserrana dagiti ridaw ti balay ni Yahweh ket nangaramid isuna kadagiti altarna iti amin a suli ti Jerusalem.
25 In every town in Judah, his workers built shrines to burn sacrifices to other gods, and that caused Yahweh, the God whom their ancestors [worshiped], to be very angry.
Iti amin a siudad ti Juda, nangaramid isuna kadagiti lugar a padaydayawan a pangipuoran kadagiti daton kadagiti didiosen, ket iti kastoy a wagas, pinaungetna ni Yahweh a Dios dagiti kapuonanna.
26 A record of the other things that Ahaz did while he was the king, from when he started to rule until he died, is written in the scroll called ‘The History of the Kings of Judah and Israel’.
Ita, dagiti amin nga inaramidna, manipud iti rugi agingga iti maudi, ket, nakasuratda iti Libro dagiti Ari ti Juda ken Israel.
27 Ahaz died and was buried in Jerusalem, but he was not buried in the tombs where the other kings [had been buried]. Then his son Hezekiah became the king.
Pimmusay ni Ahaz ket intabonda isuna iti siudad, idiay Jerusalem; ngem saanda nga intanem isuna iti pakaitantaneman dagiti ari ti Israel. Ni Hezekias a putotna a lalaki ti naisaad nga ari a kasukatna.
