1 Ahaz el tokosrala ke el yac longoul, ac el leum in Jerusalem ke yac singoul onkosr. El tia fahsr tukun srikasrak wowo lal Tokosra David, papa matu tumal, a el oru ma su tia akinsewowoye LEUM GOD,
Achaz was twenty years old when he began to reign, and he reigned sixteen years in Jerusalem: he did not that which was right in the sight of the Lord as David his father had done,
2 ac fahsr tukun srikasrak koluk lun tokosra lun Israel. El sap in orekla ma sruloala kacl Baal ke osra,
But walked in the ways of the kings of Israel; moreover also he cast statues for Baalim.
3 ac el akosak mwe keng Infahlfal Hinnom. El oayapa kisakin wen natul sifacna in mwe kisa nu sin ma sruloala ke el etai ouiya koluk lun mwet su LEUM GOD El lusla liki facl sac ke mwet Israel elos utyak nu we.
It was he that burnt incense in the valley of Benennom, and consecrated his sons in the fire according to the manner of the nations, which the Lord slew at the coming of the children of Israel.
4 Ahaz el orek kisa ac akosak mwe keng ke nien alu lun mwet pegan, ac fineol uh, ac ye sak lul nukewa.
He sacrificed also, and burnt incense in the high places, and on the hills, and under every green tree.
5 Ke ma inge, LEUM GOD lal El lela tuh tokosra Syria in kutangulla Tokosra Ahaz, ac usla mwet puspis liki acn Judah nu Damascus in mwet sruoh. LEUM GOD El oayapa eisalang Ahaz nu inpoun tokosra Israel, su arulana onela mwet Judah.
And the Lord his God delivered him into the hands of the king of Syria, who defeated him, and took a great booty out of his kingdom, and carried it to Damascus: he was also delivered into the hands of the king of Israel, who overthrew him with a great slaughter.
6 Tokosra Pekah lun Israel, wen natul Remaliah, el uniya mwet siofok longoul tausin sin mwet Judah ke len sifanna, mweyen elos ngeta liki LEUM GOD lun papa tumalos, a mwet inge mwet na pulaik ke mweun.
For Phacee the son of Romelia slew of Juda a hundred and twenty thousand in one day, all valiant men: because they had forsaken the Lord the God of their fathers.
7 Sie mwet mweun lun Israel, su inel pa Zichri, el unilya Maaseiah wen natul Tokosra Ahaz. El oayapa unilya Azrikam, mwet kol su liyaung inkul sin tokosra, ac Elkanah, su akluo in leum yal tokosra.
At the same time Zechri a powerful man of Ephraim, slew Maasias the king’s son, and Ezricam the governor of his house, and Elcana who was next to the king.
8 Mwet Judah finne ma wialos, a mwet Israel elos sruokya luofoko tausin mutan ac tulik lun mwet Judah, ac usalosla nu Samaria, wi pac ma wap puspis.
And the children of Israel carried away of their brethren two hundred thousand women, boys, and girls, and an immense booty: and they brought it to Samaria.
9 Sie mwet palu lun LEUM GOD su pangpang Oded el muta in siti Samaria. El osun nu sin mwet mweun Israel ke elos foloko ac us mwet sruoh lalos ac akola in utyak nu in siti uh. Na el fahk, “LEUM GOD lun papa tomowos El kasrkusrak sin mwet Judah, pwanang El lela kowos in kutangulosla. Tusruktu inge El lohng ke luman anwuk sulallal ma kowos oru nu selos.
At that time there was a prophet of the Lord there, whose name was Oded: and he went out to meet the army that came to Samaria, and said to them: Behold the Lord the God of your fathers being angry with Juda, hath delivered them into your hands, and you have butchered them cruelly, so that your cruelty hath reached up to heaven.
10 Ac inge kowos akoo in oru tuh mukul ac mutan lun Jerusalem ac Judah inge in mwet kohs lowos. Ku kowos tiana etu lah kowos oru pac ma koluk lain LEUM GOD lowos?
Moreover you have a mind to keep under the children of Juda and Jerusalem for your bondmen and bondwomen, which ought not to be done: for you have sinned in this against the Lord your God.
11 Porongo ma nga fahk uh! Mwet sruoh inge ma na wiowos. Lela elos in folokla. Kowos fin tia fuhlelosla, na LEUM GOD El ac kai kowos ke kasrkusrak lal.”
But hear ye my counsel, and release the captives that you have brought of your brethren, because a great indignation of the Lord hangeth over you.
12 Mwet akosr sin mwet kol lun Tokosrai Epang elos wi pac tia insese nu ke ma mwet mweun elos oru inge. Inelos pa Azariah wen natul Jehohanan, Berechiah wen natul Meshillemoth, Jehizkiah wen natul Shallum, ac Amasa wen natul Hadlai.
Then some of the chief men of the sons of Ephraim, Azarias the son of Johanan, Barachias the son of Mosollamoth, Ezechias the son of Sellum, and Amasa the son of Adali, stood up against them that came from the war.
13 Elos fahk, “Nimet use mwet sruoh ingan nu inge. Ma koluk ma kut orala fal tari LEUM GOD Elan kasrkusrak sesr kac. Ac inge kowos lungse oru kutu ma su ac akyokyela koluk lasr?”
And they said to them: You shall not bring in the captives hither, lest we sin against the Lord. Why will you add to our sins, and heap up upon our former offences? for the sin is great, and the fierce anger of the Lord hangeth over Israel.
14 Ke ma inge, mwet mweun uh sang mwet sruoh ac ma wap uh nu sin mwet uh ac mwet kol lalos.
So the soldiers left the spoils, and all that they had taken, before the princes and all the multitude.
15 Itukyang kunen mwet akosr inge in kitalik nuknuk ke ma wap nu sin mwet sruoh. Elos sang nuknuk ac fahluk nu selos, ac lupa fal ke mwe mongo ac mwe nim, ac elos sang mwe akmusra in unwela kinet kaclos. Mwet ma munas ac kofla fahsr, elos srakalosyang nu fin donkey, na mwet sruoh inge nukewa folokinyukla nu in acn Judah, ke siti Jericho su siti in sak palm. Na mwet Israel elos folokla nu yen selos in Samaria.
And the men, whom we mentioned above, rose up and took the captives, and with the spoils clothed all them that were naked: and when they had clothed and shed them, and refreshed them with meat and drink, and anointed them because of their labour, and had taken care of them, they set such of them as could not walk, and were feeble, upon beasts, and brought them to Jericho the city of palm trees to their brethren, and they returned to Samaria.
16 In pacl se inge, Tokosra Ahaz el supwala kas nu sel Tiglath Pileser, Tokosra Fulat lun Assyria, ac siyuk kasru sel,
At that time king Achaz sent to the king of the Assyrians asking help.
17 mweyen mwet Edom elos sifil tuku mweuni mwet Judah, ac kutangulosla ac uslalosla nu in sruoh.
And the Edomites came and slew many of Juda, and took a great booty.
18 In pacl sacn pacna, mwet Philistia elos utyak pac lain siti srisrik pe eol layen nu roto oayapa layen eir lun Judah. Elos sruokya siti Beth Shemesh, Aijalon, ac Gederoth, oayapa siti Soco, Timnah, ac Gimzo, wi ikul ma raunelosla, na elos oakwuki ac muta we.
The Philistines also spread themselves among the cities of the plains, and to the south of Juda: and they took Bethsames, and Aialon, and Gaderoth, and Socho, and Thamnan, and Gamzo, with their villages, and they dwelt in them.
19 Ke sripen Ahaz, tokosra lun Israel el akyokye ma koluk in acn Judah ac lain LEUM GOD, ouinge LEUM GOD El sang ma upa nu fin acn Judah.
For the Lord had humbled Juda because of Achaz the king of Juda, for he had stripped it of help, and had contemned the Lord.
20 Tiglath Pileser, Tokosra Fulat lun Assyria, el tia kasrel Ahaz, a el lainul ac oru ma upa nu sel.
And he brought, against him Thelgathphalnasar king of the Assyrians, who also afflicted him, and plundered him without any resistance.
21 Na Ahaz el eisla gold liki Tempul ac liki lohm sin tokosra, oayapa liki lohm sin mwet kol lun mwet uh, ac sang nu sel Tokosra Fulat. El ne oru ouinge, a tiana kasreyuk el.
And Achaz stripped the house of the Lord, and the house of the kings, and of the princes, and gave gifts to the king of the Assyrians, and yet it availed him nothing.
22 Ke mwe lokoalok upala nu sel Ahaz, el orekma koluk lain LEUM GOD yohk liki na meet.
Moreover also in the time of his distress he increased contempt against the Lord: king Achaz himself by himself,
23 El orek kisa nu sin god lun mwet Syria, su tuh kutangulla. El fahk, “God ingan lun mwet Syria elos kasru tokosra lun Syria, na nga fin orek kisa nu selos, elos ac ku in kasreyu pac.” Tusruktu ma el oru inge use mwe ongoiya nu sel ac nu sin mutunfacl sel.
Sacrificed victims to the gods of Damascus that struck him, and he said: The gods of the kings of Syria help them, and I will appease them with victims, and they will help me; whereas on the contrary they were the ruin of him, and of all Israel.
24 Sayen ma inge, el usla pac kufwen mwe orekma nukewa lun Tempul, ac kunausya in ip srisrik. El kaliya Tempul, ac tulokunak loang in acn nukewa in Jerusalem.
Then Achaz having taken away all the vessels of the house of God, and broken them, shut up the doors of the temple of God, and made himself altars in all the corners of Jerusalem.
25 In siti nukewa in acn Judah, el musaela nien alu lun mwet pegan, yen mwe keng uh ac isisyak we nu sin god ngia. Sripe inge oru el sifacna pwanma kasrkusrak lun LEUM GOD lun papa tumal nu facl.
And in all the cities of Juda he built altars to burn frankincense, and he provoked the Lord the God of his fathers to wrath.
26 Ma nukewa su el orala ke el tokosra, mutawauk nwe ke safla, simla in [Sramsram Matu Ke Tokosra Lun Israel Ac Judah].
But the rest of his acts, and all his works first and last are written in the book of the kings of Juda and Israel.
27 Tokosra Ahaz el misa ac pukpuki in Jerusalem, tusruktu tia inkulyuk lun mwet leum. Hezekiah wen natul, el aolul in tokosra.
And Achaz slept with his fathers, and they buried him in the city of Jerusalem: for they received him not into the sepulchres of the kings of Israel. And Ezechias his son reigned in his stead.
