¹A son of twenty years [is] Ahaz in his reigning, and sixteen years he hath reigned in Jerusalem, and he hath not done that which is right in the eyes of Jehovah, as David his father,

¹Aahas oli kuningaks saades kakskümmend aastat vana ja ta valitses Jeruusalemmas kuusteist aastat. Tema ei teinud, mis õige oli Issanda silmis, nõnda nagu tema isa Taavet,

²and walketh in the ways of the kings of Israel, and also, molten images hath made for Baalim,

²vaid käis Iisraeli kuningate teedel ja tegi ka valatud kujusid baalidele.

³and himself hath made perfume in the valley of the son of Hinnom, and burneth his sons with fire according to the abominations of the nations that Jehovah dispossessed from the presence of the sons of Israel,

³Ja see oli tema, kes suitsutas Ben-Hinnomi orus ja laskis oma pojad käia läbi tule nende rahvaste jäledate tegude eeskujul, kelle Issand oli ära ajanud Iisraeli laste eest.

⁴and sacrificeth and maketh perfume in high places, and on the heights, and under every green tree.

⁴Ta ohverdas ning suitsutas ohvrikünkail ja kõrgendikel ja iga halja puu all.

⁵And Jehovah his God giveth him into the hand of the king of Aram, and they smite him, and take captive from him a great captivity, and bring [them] in to Damascus, and also into the hand of the king of Israel he hath been given, and he smiteth him -- a great smiting.

⁵Ja Issand, tema Jumal, andis ta Süüria kuninga kätte; ja nad lõid teda ning võtsid temalt hulga vange ja viisid Damaskusesse. Ja ta anti ka Iisraeli kuninga kätte, kes valmistas temale suure kaotuse.

⁶And Pekah son of Remaliah slayeth in Judah a hundred and twenty thousand in one day (the whole [are] sons of valour), because of their forsaking Jehovah, God of their fathers.

⁶Pekah, Remalja poeg, tappis ühe päevaga Juudast sada kakskümmend tuhat, kõik vahvad mehed, sellepärast et nad olid hüljanud Issanda, oma vanemate Jumala.

⁷And Zichri, a mighty one of Ephraim, slayeth Maaseiah son of the king, and Azrikam leader of the house, and Elkanah second to the king.

⁷Ja Sikri, Efraimi kangelane, tappis Maaseja, kuninga poja, ja Asrikami, kojaülema, ja Elkana, kes oli kuningast järgmine.

⁸And the sons of Israel take captive of their brethren, two hundred thousand, wives, sons and daughters, and also much spoil they have seized from them, and they bring in the spoil to Samaria.

⁸Ja Iisraeli lapsed viisid oma vendadelt vangi naisi, poegi ja tütreid - kakssada tuhat, riisusid neilt ka palju saaki ja viisid saagi Samaariasse.

⁹And there hath been there a prophet of Jehovah (Oded [is] his name), and he goeth out before the host that hath come in to Samaria, and saith to them, `Lo, in the fury of Jehovah God of your fathers against Judah, He hath given them into your hand, and ye slay among them in rage -- unto the heavens it hath come;

⁹Aga seal oli Issanda prohvet, Ooded nimi, ja tema läks vastu sõjaväele, kes oli teel Samaariasse, ja ütles neile: 'Vaata, Issand, teie vanemate Jumal, on vihastunud Juuda peale ja on andnud nad teie kätte. Ja teie olete neid tapnud niisuguse vihaga, mis ulatub taevani.

¹⁰and now, sons of Judah and Jerusalem ye are saying to subdue for men-servants and for maid-servants to you; but are there not with you causes of guilt before Jehovah your God?

¹⁰Ja nüüd te mõtlete alistada Juuda ja Jeruusalemma lapsi endile sulaseiks ja teenijaiks. Kas pole ka teil endil süüd Issanda, teie Jumala ees?

¹¹and now, hear me, and send back the captives whom ye have taken captive of your brethren, for the heat of the anger of Jehovah [is] upon you.'

¹¹Aga kuulge nüüd mind ja viige tagasi vangid, keda te olete võtnud oma vendadelt, muidu tabab teid Issanda tuline viha!'

¹²And certain of the heads of the sons of Ephraim (Azariah son of Johanan, Berechiah son of Meshillemoth, and Jehizkiah son of Shallum, and Amasa son of Hadlai), rise up against those coming in from the host,

¹²Siis tõusid mõned mehed efraimlaste peameestest: Asarja, Joohanani poeg, Berekja, Mesillemoti poeg, Hiskija, Sallumi poeg, ja Amaasa, Hadlai poeg, sõjast tulijaile vastu

¹³and say to them, `Ye do not bring in the captives hither, for, to guilt against Jehovah on us, ye are saying to add unto our sin and unto our guilt? for abundant [is] the guilt we have, and the fierceness of anger on Israel.'

¹³ja ütlesid neile: 'Ärge tooge vange siia, sest te teete meid süüdlasteks Issanda ees, kui mõtlete lisa tuua meie pattudele ja süütegudele! Tõesti, meie süü on suur ja Iisraeli peal on tuline viha!'

¹⁴And the armed men leave the captives and the prey before the heads and all the assembly;

¹⁴Siis sõjamehed loobusid vangidest ja saagist vürstide ja terve koguduse ees.

¹⁵and the men who have been expressed by name rise and take hold on the captives, and all their naked ones they have clothed from the spoil, yea, they clothe them, and shoe them, and cause them to eat and drink, and anoint them, and lead them on asses, even every feeble one, and bring them in to Jericho, the city of palms, near their brethren, and turn back to Samaria.

¹⁵Ja nimeliselt nimetatud mehed tõusid ning võtsid vangid ja riietasid saagist võetuga kõik, kes neist olid alasti: nad andsid neile riided selga ja jalatsid jalga, söötsid ja jootsid neid, võidsid neid ja panid eeslite selga kõik, kes olid nõrgad, ja viisid need Jeerikosse, Palmidelinna, nende vendade juurde. Seejärel tulid nad Samaariasse tagasi.

¹⁶At that time hath king Ahaz sent unto the king of Asshur to give help to him;

¹⁶Selsamal ajal läkitas kuningas Aahas sõna Assuri kuningatele, et nad aitaksid teda.

¹⁷and again the Edomites have come, and smite in Judah, and take captive a captivity.

¹⁷Sest ka edomlased tulid jälle ja lõid Juudat ning võtsid vange.

¹⁸And the Philistines have rushed against the cities of the low country, and of the south of Judah, and capture Beth-Shemesh, and Aijalon, and Gederoth, and Shocho and its villages, and Timnah and its villages, and Gimzo and its villages, and dwell there,

¹⁸Ja vilistid tungisid Juuda madalmaa ja lõunamaa linnadesse ning vallutasid Beet-Semesi, Ajjaloni, Gederoti, Sooko ja selle tütarlinnad, Timna ja selle tütarlinnad, Gimso ja selle tütarlinnad, ja asusid neisse.

¹⁹for Jehovah hath humbled Judah because of Ahaz king of Israel, for he made free with Judah, even to commit a trespass against Jehovah.

¹⁹Sest Issand alandas Juudat Iisraeli kuninga Aahase pärast, sellepärast et ta andis Juudamaal vaba voli korralagedusele ja oli truuduseta Issanda vastu.

²⁰And Tilgath-Pilneser king of Asshur cometh in unto him, and doth distress him, and hath not strengthened him,

²⁰Assuri kuningas Tiglat-Pileser aga tuli tema vastu ja kimbutas teda ega andnud temale toetust.

²¹though Ahaz hath taken a portion [out] of the house of Jehovah, and [out] of the house of the king, and of the princes, and giveth to the king of Asshur, yet it is no help to him.

²¹Sest kuigi Aahas rüüstas Issanda koja ning kuninga ja vürstide kojad ja andis Assuri kuningale, ei olnud tal sellest abi.

²²And in the time of his distress -- he addeth to trespass against Jehovah, (this king Ahaz),

²²Aga isegi sel ajal, kui teda rõhuti, murdis ta üha truudust Issandale, seesama kuningas Aahas.

²³and he sacrificeth to the gods of Damascus -- those smiting him, and saith, `Because the gods of the kings of Aram are helping them, to them I sacrifice, and they help me,' and they have been to him to cause him to stumble, and to all Israel.

²³Siis ta ohverdas Damaskuse jumalatele, kes teda olid löönud, ja ütles: 'Kuna Süüria kuningate jumalad neid aitavad, siis ma ohverdan neile, et nad mindki aitaksid!' Aga need saidki komistuseks temale ja kogu Iisraelile.

²⁴And Ahaz gathereth the vessels of the house of God, and cutteth in pieces the vessels of the house of God, and shutteth the doors of the house of Jehovah, and maketh to himself altars in every corner in Jerusalem.

²⁴Ja Aahas kogus kokku Jumala koja riistad ja raius katki Jumala koja riistad; ta sulges Issanda koja uksed ja tegi enesele altarid igasse Jeruusalemma nurka.

²⁵And in every city and city of Judah he hath made high places to make perfume to other gods, and provoketh Jehovah, God of his fathers.

²⁵Ja ta tegi igasse Juuda linna ohvrikünkaid teistele jumalatele suitsutamiseks ning ärritas Issandat, oma vanemate Jumalat.

²⁶And the rest of his matters, and all his ways, the first and the last, lo, they are written on the book of the kings of Judah and Israel.

²⁶Aga tema muud lood ja kõik tema ettevõtted, varasemad ja hilisemad, vaata, need on kirja pandud Juuda ja Iisraeli Kuningate raamatus.

²⁷And Ahaz lieth with his fathers, and they bury him in the city, in Jerusalem, but have not brought him in to the graves of the kings of Israel, and reign doth Hezekiah his son in his stead.

²⁷Siis Aahas läks magama oma vanemate juurde ja ta maeti linna, Jeruusalemma, aga teda ei viidud Iisraeli kuningate hauda. Ja tema poeg Hiskija sai tema asemel kuningaks.
