2 Cronicas 15

1 Immay ti espiritu ti Dios kenni Azarias a putot ni Obed.

And the Spirit of God came upon Azariah the son of Oded:

2 Napanna sinabat ni Asa ket kinunana kenkuana, “Dumngegka kaniak Asa, ken dagiti amin a tattao ti Juda ken Benjamin: Adda kadakayo ni Yahweh, kabayatan iti kaaddayo kenkuana. No sapulenyo isuna, masarakanyonto isuna; ngem no tallikudanyo isuna, baybay-annakayonto.

And he went out to meet Asa, and said unto him, Hear ye me, Asa, and all Judah and Benjamin; Yhwh is with you, while ye be with him; and if ye seek him, he will be found of you; but if ye forsake him, he will forsake you.

3 Ita, nabayag a tiempo nga awan iti Israel ti pudno a Dios, ken awan padi a mangisuro, ken awan linteg.

Now for a long season Israel hath been without the true God, and without a teaching priest, and without law.

4 Ngem iti tiempo ti pannakaparigatda, nagsublida kenni Yahweh a Dios ti Israel, sinapulda isuna, ket nasarakanda.

But when they in their trouble did turn unto Yhwh God of Israel, and sought him, he was found of them.

5 Kadagidiay a tiempo, awan talna iti tao nga agdaliasat iti sadinoman; ngem ketdi, adda nakaro a pannakariribuk kadagiti amin nga agnanaed kadagiti daga.

And in those times there was no peace to him that went out, nor to him that came in, but great vexations were upon all the inhabitants of the countries.

6 Narumekrumekda, nasion maibusor iti nasion, ken siudad maibusor iti siudad, ta riniribuk ida ti Dios babaen kadagiti amin a kita ti panagsagaba.

And nation was destroyed of nation, and city of city: for God did vex them with all adversity.

7 Ngem bumilegkayo koma, ket saanyo nga ipalubos a kumapsut dagiti imayo, ta magunggonaanto ti trabahoyo.”

Be ye strong therefore, and let not your hands be weak: for your work shall be rewarded.

8 Idi nangngeg ni Asa dagitoy a sasao, a padto ni profeta Obed, timmured isuna ket inikkatna dagiti makarimon a banbanag iti amin a daga ti Juda ken Benjamin ken kadagiti siudad a sinakupna iti katurturodan a pagilian ti Efraim; ken tinarimaanna ti altar ni Yahweh nga adda iti sangoanan ti balkon ti balay ni Yahweh.

And when Asa heard these words, and the prophecy of Oded the prophet, he took courage, and put away the abominable idols out of all the land of Judah and Benjamin, and out of the cities which he had taken from mount Ephraim, and renewed the altar of Yhwh, that was before the porch of Yhwh.

9 Inummongna dagiti amin a tattao iti Juda ken Benjamin, ken dagiti makipagnanaed kadakuada-dagiti tattao a nagtaud iti Efraim, Manases ken Simeon. Ta aduda a naggapu iti Israel a napan kenkuana, idi nakitada nga adda kenkuana ni Yahweh a Diosna.

And he gathered all Judah and Benjamin, and the strangers with them out of Ephraim and Manasseh, and out of Simeon: for they fell to him out of Israel in abundance, when they saw that Yhwh his God was with him.

10 Isu a naguummongda idiay Jerusalem iti maikatlo a bulan, iti maika-sangapulo ket lima a tawen a panagturay ni Asa.

So they gathered themselves together at Jerusalem in the third month, in the fifteenth year of the reign of Asa.

11 Iti dayta nga aldaw, indatonda kenni Yahweh ti dadduma a sinamsamda nga awitda; pito gasut a bulog a baka ken pito ribu a karnero ken kalding.

And they offered unto Yhwh the same time, of the spoil which they had brought, seven hundred oxen and seven thousand sheep.

12 Nagaramidda iti katulagan a sapulenda ni Yahweh a Dios dagiti kapuonanda, iti amin a pusoda ken iti amin a kararuada.

And they entered into a covenant to seek Yhwh God of their fathers with all their heart and with all their soul;

13 Immanamongda a siasinoman a saan a mangsapul kenni Yahweh a Dios ti Israel ket rumbeng a mapapatay, ubing man wenno nataengan, lalaki man wenno babai.

That whosoever would not seek Yhwh God of Israel should be put to death, whether small or great, whether man or woman.

14 Nagsapatada kenni Yahweh iti napigsa a timek, babaen iti panagpukpukkawda, ken babaen kadagiti trumpeta ken tangguyob.

And they sware unto Yhwh with a loud voice, and with shouting, and with trumpets, and with cornets.

15 Nagrag-o dagiti amin a tattao ti Juda gapu iti sapata, ta nagsapatada iti amin a pusoda, ken sinapulda ni Yahweh iti amin a tarigagayda; ket nasarakanda isuna. Inikkan ida ni Yahweh iti talna iti aglawlawda.

And all Judah rejoiced at the oath: for they had sworn with all their heart, and sought him with their whole desire; and he was found of them: and Yhwh gave them rest round about.

16 Inikkatna pay ni Maaca, nga apongna a babai manipud iti kinareynana, gapu ta nagaramid isuna iti makarimon nga imahen ni Asera. Tinumba ni Asa ti makarimon nga imahen, binurakna sana pinuoran daytoy idiay waig ti Kidron.

And also concerning Maachah the mother of Asa the king, he removed her from being queen, because she had made an idol in a grove: and Asa cut down her idol, and stamped it, and burnt it at the brook Kidron.

17 Ngem saan a naikkat dagiti pagdaydayawan idiay Israel. Nupay kasta, naan-anay a napudno ti puso ni Asa kadagiti amin nga aldawna.

But the high places were not taken away out of Israel: nevertheless the heart of Asa was perfect all his days.

18 Impanna iti balay ti Dios dagiti alikamen ti amana ken dagiti bukodna nga alikamen a kukua ni Yahweh: dagiti pirak ken balitok.

And he brought into the house of God the things that his father had dedicated, and that he himself had dedicated, silver, and gold, and vessels.

19 Awanen ti gubat agingga iti maika-35 a tawen a panagturay ni Asa.

And there was no more war unto the five and thirtieth year of the reign of Asa.
