1 Kings 15
1 Now in the eighteenth year of King Jeroboam the son of Nebat, Abijam began to reign over Judah.
E higa mar apar gaboro mar loch Jeroboam wuod Nebat, Abija nobedo ruodh Juda,
2 He reigned three years in Jerusalem. His mother’s name was Maacah the daughter of Abishalom.
kendo norito piny kuom higni adek kodak Jerusalem. Min mare ne nyinge Maaka nyar Abishalom.
3 He walked in all the sins of his father, which he had done before him; and his heart was not perfect with Yahweh his God, as the heart of David his father.
Notimo richo duto mane wuon otimo kendo chunye ne ok ochiwore chuth ni Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasache, kaka chuny Daudi kwargi ne en.
4 Nevertheless for David’s sake, Yahweh his God gave him a lamp in Jerusalem, to set up his son after him and to establish Jerusalem;
To kata kamano nikech Daudi, Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasache nomiye taya Jerusalem koyiero wuode mondo okaw lochne kendo oket Jerusalem obed motegno.
5 because David did that which was right in Yahweh’s eyes, and didn’t turn away from anything that he commanded him all the days of his life, except only in the matter of Uriah the Hittite.
Nikech Daudi notimo gima kare e nyim Jehova Nyasaye kendo ne ok oweyo ma ok omako chik Jehova Nyasaye moro amora e ndalo ngimane duto makmana e wach Uria ja-Hiti.
6 Now there was war between Rehoboam and Jeroboam all the days of his life.
Lweny ne nitie e kind Rehoboam gi Jeroboam e kinde duto mar ngima Abija.
7 The rest of the acts of Abijam, and all that he did, aren’t they written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah? There was war between Abijam and Jeroboam.
To timbe mamoko mag loch Abija kaachiel gi gik moko duto mane otimo, donge ondikgi e kitepe mag weche mag ndalo mar ruodhi mag Juda? Ne nitie lweny e kind Abija kod Jeroboam.
8 Abijam slept with his fathers, and they buried him in David’s city; and Asa his son reigned in his place.
Kendo Abija notho kaka kwerene kendo noyike e Dala Maduongʼ mar Daudi. Asa wuode nobedo ruoth kare.
9 In the twentieth year of Jeroboam king of Israel, Asa began to reign over Judah.
E higa mar piero ariyo mar loch Jeroboam ruodh Israel, Asa nobedo ruodh Juda,
10 He reigned forty-one years in Jerusalem. His mother’s name was Maacah the daughter of Abishalom.
kendo nobedo ruoth Jerusalem kuom higni piero angʼwen gachiel. Dagi niluongo ni Maaka nyar Abishalom.
11 Asa did that which was right in Yahweh’s eyes, as David his father did.
Asa notimo gima kare e nyim Jehova Nyasaye mana kaka Daudi wuon mare notimo.
12 He put away the sodomites out of the land, and removed all the idols that his fathers had made.
Noriembo chwo ma jochode mag kuonde lemo modarogi e pinye kendo noketho nyiseche manono mane kweregi oloso.
13 He also removed Maacah his mother from being queen, because she had made an abominable image for an Asherah. Asa cut down her image and burned it at the brook Kidron.
Bende nogolo dagi ma Maaka e kome mane entie kaka min ruoth nikech noloso sirni milamo mar Ashera. Asa nongʼado yien-no mowangʼe e holo mar Kidron.
14 But the high places were not taken away. Nevertheless the heart of Asa was perfect with Yahweh all his days.
Kata obedo ni Asa ne ok oketho kuonde motingʼore malo mag lemo, chunye nochiwore chutho ni Jehova Nyasaye ndalo duto mag ngimane.
15 He brought into Yahweh’s house the things that his father had dedicated, and the things that he himself had dedicated: silver, gold, and utensils.
Nokelo gige dhahabu gi fedha kod mula e hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye ma en owuon gi wuon mare nosepwodho.
16 There was war between Asa and Baasha king of Israel all their days.
Ne nitie lweny e kind Asa kod Baasha ruodh Israel ndalo duto mag lochgi.
17 Baasha king of Israel went up against Judah, and built Ramah, that he might not allow anyone to go out or come in to Asa king of Judah.
Baasha ruodh Israel nodhi kedo kod Juda kendo nochielo Rama motegno mondo ogengʼ ni ngʼato angʼata kik wuogi kata donji e piny Asa ruodh Juda.
18 Then Asa took all the silver and the gold that was left in the treasures of Yahweh’s house, and the treasures of the king’s house, and delivered it into the hand of his servants. Then King Asa sent them to Ben Hadad, the son of Tabrimmon, the son of Hezion, king of Syria, who lived at Damascus, saying,
Eka Asa nokawo fedha gi dhahabu duto mane odongʼ e ute keno mag hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye gi mago mag ode. Nomiyogi jodonge mi oorogi ir Ben-Hadad wuod Tabrimon ma wuod Hezion ruodh Aram manodak Damaski.
19 “Let there be a treaty between me and you, like that between my father and your father. Behold, I have sent to you a present of silver and gold. Go, break your treaty with Baasha king of Israel, that he may depart from me.”
Nowachone niya, “Winjruok mondo obedie kindi koda, mana kaka nobedo e kind wuonwa gi wuonu. Aoroni mich mag fedha gi dhahabu, koro keth winjruok mantie e kindi gi Baasha ruodh Israel mondo mi owe kedo koda.”
20 Ben Hadad listened to King Asa, and sent the captains of his armies against the cities of Israel, and struck Ijon, and Dan, and Abel Beth Maacah, and all Chinneroth, with all the land of Naphtali.
Ben-Hadad noyie gi ruoth Asa kendo nooro jotende mag lweny mondo omonj mier matindo mag Israel. Noloyo Ijon gi Dan gi Abel Beth Maaka kod Kinereth duto kaachiel gi Naftali.
21 When Baasha heard of it, he stopped building Ramah, and lived in Tirzah.
Kane Baasha owinjo mano, nochungo gero Rama modok Tirza.
22 Then King Asa made a proclamation to all Judah. No one was exempted. They carried away the stones of Ramah, and its timber, with which Baasha had built; and King Asa used it to build Geba of Benjamin, and Mizpah.
Eka ruoth Asa nochiwo chik ni Juda duto maonge ngʼato angʼata mane owe oko, negikawo kite duto kod yiende mane Baasha osebedo katiyogo Rama kendo notiyo kodgi kanyo. Asa notiyo kodgi kuom gero Geba e piny Benjamin kod Mizpa bende.
23 Now the rest of all the acts of Asa, and all his might, and all that he did, and the cities which he built, aren’t they written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah? But in the time of his old age he was diseased in his feet.
Weche mamoko duto mag loch Asa, gi lochne, gi gigo duto mane otimo gi mier duto mane ogero donge ondikgi e kitepe mag ruodhi mag Juda? Kata kamano ka hike noseniangʼ tiende nobedo gituo.
24 Asa slept with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers in his father David’s city; and Jehoshaphat his son reigned in his place.
Eka Asa noyweyo gi kwerene kendo noyike kodgi e dala Daudi wuon mare. Kendo Jehoshafat wuode nobedo ruoth kare.
25 Nadab the son of Jeroboam began to reign over Israel in the second year of Asa king of Judah; and he reigned over Israel two years.
Nadab wuod Jeroboam nobedo ruoth mar Israel e higa mar ariyo mar loch Asa ruodh Juda, kendo nobedo ruodh Israel kuom higni ariyo.
26 He did that which was evil in Yahweh’s sight, and walked in the way of his father, and in his sin with which he made Israel to sin.
Notimo richo e nyim Jehova Nyasaye, kowuotho e yor wuon mare kod richone mane omiyo Israel otimo.
27 Baasha the son of Ahijah, of the house of Issachar, conspired against him; and Baasha struck him at Gibbethon, which belonged to the Philistines; for Nadab and all Israel were besieging Gibbethon.
Baasha wuod Ahija ja-dhood Isakar nomonje mi nogoye monege e Gibethon e dala jo-Filistia ka Nadab kod jo-Israel duto ne dwaro monjo dalano.
28 Even in the third year of Asa king of Judah, Baasha killed him and reigned in his place.
Baasha nonego Nadab e higa mar adek mar loch Asa ruodh Juda, kendo nokaw lochne kaka ruoth.
29 As soon as he was king, he struck all the house of Jeroboam. He didn’t leave to Jeroboam any who breathed, until he had destroyed him, according to the saying of Yahweh, which he spoke by his servant Ahijah the Shilonite;
Mapiyo piyo kochako locho, nonego jood Jeroboam duto. Ne ok oweyo ni Jeroboam kata ngʼato achiel mayweyo to notiekogi kaluwore gi wach Jehova Nyasaye mane omiyo jatichne Ahija ja-Shilo;
30 for the sins of Jeroboam which he sinned, and with which he made Israel to sin, because of his provocation with which he provoked Yahweh, the God of Israel, to anger.
nikech richo mane Jeroboam otimo kendo mane omiyo Israel otimo, kendo nikech nomiyo Jehova Nyasaye Nyasach Israel obedo gi mirima.
31 Now the rest of the acts of Nadab, and all that he did, aren’t they written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?
To kuom mamoko mag loch Nadab kaachiel gi timbene duto donge ondiki e kitepe mag ruodhi mag Israel?
32 There was war between Asa and Baasha king of Israel all their days.
Ne nitie lweny e kind Asa kod Baasha ruodh Israel ndalo duto mag lochgi.
33 In the third year of Asa king of Judah, Baasha the son of Ahijah began to reign over all Israel in Tirzah for twenty-four years.
E higa mar adek mar loch Asa ruodh Juda, Baasha wuod Ahija nodoko ruoth kuom Israel duto e Tirza kendo nobedo ruoth kuom higni piero ariyo gangʼwen.
34 He did that which was evil in Yahweh’s sight, and walked in the way of Jeroboam, and in his sin with which he made Israel to sin.
Notimo richo e nyim Jehova Nyasaye, kowuotho e yore mag Jeroboam kod richone mane omiyo Israel otimo.
