< 2 Chronicles 33 >

1 Manasseh was 12 years old when he became the king [of Judah], and he ruled from Jerusalem for 55 years.
Roa ambin’ ny folo taona Manase, fony izy vao nanjaka, ary dimy amby dimam-polo taona no nanjakany tany Jerosalema.
2 He did many things that Yahweh considered to be evil. He imitated the disgusting things that were formerly done by the people-groups that Yahweh had expelled from Israel as his people advanced [though the land].
Ary nanao izay ratsy eo mason’ i Jehovah izy tahaka ny fahavetavetan’ ny firenena izay noroahin’ i Jehovah tsy ho eo anoloan’ ny Zanak’ isiraely.
3 He commanded his workers to rebuild the shrines [for worshiping idols] that his father Hezekiah had destroyed. He told them to set up altars to [honor] the statues of Baal, and to make altars to [honor the goddess] Asherah. He bowed down to [worship] all the stars.
Fa namboariny indray ny fitoerana avo, izay efa noravan’ i Hezekia rainy, ka nanangana alitara ho an’ ireo Bala izy sady nanao Aseraha sy niankohota teo anatrehan’ izay rehetra eny amin’ ny lanitra ka nanompo azy
4 He directed his workers to build altars [for foreign gods] in the temple, about which Yahweh had said, “It is here in Jerusalem that I want people to worship me, forever.”
sady nanorina alitara tao an-tranon’ i Jehovah, dia tao amin’ ilay nolazain’ i Jehovah hoe: Any Jerosalema no hitoeran’ ny anarako mandrakizay.
5 He directed that altars for [worshiping] all the stars be built in both of the courtyards outside the temple.
Fa nanao alitara teo anatin’ ny kianja roa amin’ ny tranon’ i Jehovah izy ho an’ izay rehetra eny amin’ ny lanitra.
6 He even sacrificed [some of] his own sons and burned them in a fire in Hinnom Valley. He performed rituals to practice sorcery. He asked fortune-tellers for advice. He performed witchcraft. He talked to people who consulted the spirits of people who had died to find out what would happen in the future. He did many things that Yahweh considered o be very evil, things that caused Yahweh to become very angry.
Ary ny zanany nampamakiny ny afo teo an-dohasahan’ ny taranak’ i Hinoma, sady nanandro sy nanao sikidy izy sy nanana ody ary naka ny manao azy ho tsindrian-javatra sy ny mpanao hatsarana, dia nahery nanao izay ratsy eo imason’ i Jehovah izy ka nampahatezitra Azy.
7 Manasseh took a carved idol [that his workers had made] and put it in the temple. That is the temple concerning which God had said to David and to his son Solomon, “My temple will be here in Jerusalem, the city that I have chosen [where I want people to] worship me, forever.
Ary izay sarin-javatra voasokitra momba ny sampy nataony dia napetrany tao an-tranon’ Andriamanitra, izay nolazain’ Andriamanitra tamin’ Davida sy Solomona zanany hoe: Eto amin’ ity trano ity sy eto Jerosalema, izay nofidiko tamin’ ny firenen’ isiraely rehetra, no hasiako ny anarako mandrakizay;
8 If they will obey all the laws and decrees and regulations that I told Moses to give to them, I will not again force the Israeli people to leave this land that I gave to their ancestors.”
ary tsy hampandeha ny tongotry ny Isiraely intsony hiala amin’ ny tany izay efa notendreko ho an’ ny razanareo Aho, raha mba hitandrina koa izy hanao araka izay rehetra nandidiako azy, dia araka ny lalana rehetra sy ny didy ary ny fitsipika izay nampilazaina an’ i Mosesy.
9 But Manasseh led the people of Jerusalem and other places in Judah to do things that are wrong, with the result that they did more evil than was done by the people in the people-groups that Yahweh had expelled as the Israeli people advanced [through the land].
Kanjo nampivily ny Joda sy ny mponina tany Jerosalema Manase mba hanao ratsy mihoatra noho ny firenena izay naringan’ i Jehovah tsy ho eo anoloan’ ny Zanak’ isiraely.
10 Yahweh spoke to Manasseh and the people of Judah, but they paid no attention.
Ary Jehovah niteny tamin’ i Manase sy ny vahoakany, nefa tsy nety nihaino izy.
11 So Yahweh caused the army commanders of Assyria [and their soldiers] to [come to Jerusalem, and they] captured Manasseh. They put a hook in his nose and put bronze chains on his [feet] and took him to Babylon.
Dia nentin’ i Jehovah hamely azy ny komandin’ ny miaramilan’ ny mpanjakan’ i Asyria, dia nosamborin’ ireo Manase ka nasiany masom-by sady nogadrany gadra varahina ary nentiny ho any Babylona.
12 There, while he was suffering, he humbled himself greatly in the presence of Yahweh, the God whom his ancestors [worshiped], and pleaded with Yahweh to help him.
Ary nony azom-pahoriana mafy izy, vao nifona tamin’ i Jehovah Andriamaniny sady nanetry tena indrindra teo anatrehan’ Andriamanitry ny razany
13 When he prayed, Yahweh heard him and pitied him. So he [allowed him to] return to Jerusalem and [to] rule his kingdom again. Then Manasseh realized that Yahweh is [an all-powerful] God.
ka nivavaka taminy; ary Jehovah nanaiky ka nihaino ny fifonany, dia nampody azy ho any Jerosalema ho any amin’ ny fanjakany. Ka dia fantatr’ i Manase fa Jehovah no Andriamanitra.
14 Later, Manasseh’s [workers] rebuilt the eastern section of the outer wall around Jerusalem, and [they] made it higher. That section extended from Gihon Spring [north] to the Fish Gate, and around the part of the city that they called Ophel [Hill]. Manasseh also appointed army officers to guard each of the cities in Judah that had walls around them.
Ary rehefa afaka izany, dia nanao manda teo ivelan’ ny Tanànan’ i Davida izy, dia teo andrefana hatrany Gihona, eo amin’ ny lohasahan-driaka, ka hatramin’ ny fidirana amin’ ny vavahadin-kazandrano, ary nataony manodidina an’ i Ofela sady nataony avo dia avo; ary nanendry izay ho komandin’ ny miaramila ho any amin’ ny tanàna mimanda rehetra any Joda izy.
15 Manasseh’s [workers] removed from the temple the idols and the stone statues of gods of other nations. Manasseh also [told them to] remove the altars that they had previously built on Zion Hill and in [other places in] Jerusalem. He had all those things thrown out of the city.
Dia nesoriny ireny andriamani-kafa sy ny sampy tao an-tranon’ i Jehovah mbamin’ ny alitara rehetra izay efa naoriny teo an-tendrombohitry ny tranon’ i Jehovah sy tany Jerosalema ka nariany teny ivelan’ ny tanàna.
16 Then he [told them to] repair the altar of Yahweh, and he offered sacrifices to restore fellowship with Yahweh and to thank him. And he told [the people of] Judah that they must worship [only] Yahweh.
Ary nanorina indray ny alitaran’ i Jehovah izy ka namono zavatra hatao fanati-pihavanana sy fanati-pisaorana teo amboniny, dia nandidy ny Joda hanompo an’ i Jehovah, Andriamanitry ny Isiraely.
17 The people continued to offer sacrifices on the hilltops, but only to Yahweh their God.
Fa ny olona mbola namono zavatra hatao fanatitra teny amin’ ny fitoerana avo ihany, kanefa kosa ho an’ i Jehovah Andriamaniny ihany.
18 The other things that happened while Manasseh was ruling, including his prayer to God and the messages from Yahweh that the prophets gave to him, are written in the scroll called ‘The History of the Kings of Israel’.
Ary ny tantaran’ i Manase sisa mbamin’ ny vavaka nataony tamin’ Andriamaniny sy ny tenin’ ireo mpahita izay niteny taminy tamin’ ny anaran’ i Jehovah, Andriamanitry ny Isiraely indro, ao amin’ ny tantaran’ ny mpanjakan’ ny Isiraely izany.
19 What Manasseh prayed and how God pitied him because he pleaded to God, and also his sins and ways in which he disobeyed God, and the [list of] places where he built shrines and set up poles to [honor the goddess] Asherah and other idols [before he humbled himself], are written in what the prophets wrote.
Ary koa, ny vavaka nataony sy ny naneken’ Andriamanitra izany ary ny fahotany sy ny fahadisoany rehetra mbamin’ ny fitoerana izay nanorenany fitoerana avo sy nananganany Aseraha sy sarin-javatra voasokitra, fony izy tsy mbola nanetry tena, indro, efa voasoratra ao amin’ ny tenin’ i Hozay izany.
20 Manasseh died and was buried in his palace. Then his son Amon became the king [of Judah].
Ary Manase lasa nodi-mandry any amin’ ny razany, dia nalevina tao an-tranony; ary Amona zanany no nanjaka nandimby azy.
21 Amon was 22 years old when he became king, and he ruled in Jerusalem for two years.
Roa amby roa-polo taona Amona, fony izy vao nanjaka, ary roa taona no nanjakany tany Jerosalema.
22 He did things that Yahweh considered to be evil, like his father Manasseh had done. Amon worshiped all the idols that Manasseh’s [workers] had made.
Ary nanao izay ratsy eo imason’ i Jehovah tahaka ny nataon’ i Manase rainy ihany izy; fa ny sarin-javatra voasokitra rehetra nataon’ i Manase rainy dia namonoan’ i Amona zavatra hatao fanatitra ka notompoiny;
23 But he did not humble himself and turn to Yahweh like his father did. So he became more sinful than his father had been.
ary tsy nanetry tena teo anatrehan’ i Jehovah tahaka ny nataon’ i Manase rainy izy, fa mainka nanota bebe kokoa aza.
24 Then Amon’s officials made plans to kill him. They assassinated him in his palace.
Dia nikomy taminy ny mpanompony ka namono azy tao an-tranony.
25 But then the people of Judah killed all those who had assassinated Amon, and they appointed his son Josiah to be their king.
Fa ny vahoaka kosa namono izay rehetra efa nikomy tamin’ i Amona mpanjaka, dia nampanjaka an’ i Josia zanany hisolo azy.
