1In the three-and-twentieth year of Joash the son of Ahaziah, king of Judah, Jehoahaz the son of Jehu began to reign over Israel in Samaria, for seventeen years.
1 Yahuda bonkoono Yowasa, Ahaziya izo, a mayra jiiri waranka cindi hinzanta ra no Yehowahaz, Yehu izo te bonkooni Israyla boŋ Samariya ra. A may mo jiiri way cindi iyye.
2And he did evil in the sight of Jehovah, and followed the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, who made Israel to sin; he departed not from them.
2 A na goy laalo te Rabbi diyaŋ gaa. A na Yerobowam Nebat ize zunubey gana, naŋ kaŋ a na Israyla daŋ a ma zunubi te; a mana fay d'ey mo.
3And the anger of Jehovah was kindled against Israel, and he delivered them into the hand of Hazael king of Syria, and into the hand of Ben-Hadad the son of Hazael, all those days.
3 Kala Rabbi bine koroŋ Israyla boŋ. A n'i daŋ Suriya bonkoono Hazayel, da Ben-Hadad, Hazayel izo kambe ra waati kulu.
4(And Jehoahaz besought Jehovah, and Jehovah hearkened to him; for he saw the oppression of Israel, because the king of Syria oppressed them.
4 Yehowahaz na Rabbi ŋwaaray. Rabbi mo maa a se, zama a di kankami kaŋ go ga te Israyla se Suriya bonkoono kambe ra no.
5And Jehovah gave Israel a saviour, so that they went out from under the hand of the Syrians; and the children of Israel dwelt in their tents as before.
5 Rabbi mo na Israyla no faabako hal i yana ka fun Suriyancey kambe ra. Israyla izey mo goro ngey windey ra sanda doŋ wano cine.
6Nevertheless they departed not from the sins of the house of Jeroboam, who made Israel to sin: they walked therein; and there remained also the Asherah in Samaria.)
6 Kulu nda yaadin, i mana fay da Yerobowam kwaara zunubey bo, naŋ kaŋ a na Israyla daŋ i ma zunubi te, amma i soobay ka dira i ra. Wayboro himandi bundu tooruyaŋ mo cindi Samariya ra.
7For he had left of the people to Jehoahaz but fifty horsemen, and ten chariots, and ten thousand footmen; for the king of Syria had destroyed them, and had made them like the dust by threshing.
7 Zama a na kaaruko waygu da wongu torko way, da ce-koy zambar way hinne naŋ Yehowahaz se. Zama Suriya bonkoono n'i halaci, a n'i ciya sanda du kaŋ boro ga taamu cine.
8And the rest of the acts of Jehoahaz, and all that he did, and his might, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?
8 Yehowahaz goy cindey, da haŋ kaŋ a te kulu, d'a soojetaray manti i n'i hantum Israyla bonkooney baaru tira ra bo?
9And Jehoahaz slept with his fathers, and they buried him in Samaria; and Joash his son reigned in his stead.
9 Yehowahaz binde kani nga kaayey banda; i n'a fiji Samariya ra. A izo Yehowasa te bonkooni a nango ra.
10In the thirty-seventh year of Joash king of Judah began Jehoash the son of Jehoahaz to reign over Israel in Samaria, for sixteen years.
10 Yahuda bonkoono Yehowasa mayra jiiri waranza cindi iyyanta ra no Yehowasa, Yehowahaz izo te bonkooni Samariya ra Israyla boŋ. A may mo jiiri way cindi iddu.
11And he did evil in the sight of Jehovah; he departed not from any of the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, who made Israel to sin: he walked therein.
11 A na teera laalo te Rabbi diyaŋ gaa. A mana fay da Yerobowam Nebat izo zunubey, naŋ kaŋ a na Israyla daŋ i ma zunubi te, amma i ra no a soobay ka dira.
12And the rest of the acts of Joash, and all that he did, and his might with which he fought against Amaziah king of Judah, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?
12 Yehowasa goy cindey mo, da haŋ kaŋ a te kulu, da gaabi kaŋ a na wongu te d'a Yahuda bonkoono Amaziya gaa, manti i n'i hantum Israyla bonkooney baaru tira ra bo?
13And Joash slept with his fathers, and Jeroboam sat upon his throne; and Joash was buried in Samaria with the kings of Israel.
13 Yehowasa kani nga kaayey banda, Yerobowam mo goro a karga boŋ. I na Yehowasa fiji Samariya ra, naŋ kaŋ i ga Israyla bonkooney fiji.
14And Elisha fell sick of his sickness in which he died. And Joash the king of Israel came down to him, and wept over his face, and said, My father, my father! the chariot of Israel and the horsemen thereof!
14 A go no, kala dooro kaŋ ga Iliyasu wi din n'a di hal a kani. Israyla bonkoono Yehowasa mo kaa a do. A soobay ka hẽ a boŋ, ka ne: «Ay baaba! Ay baaba! Israyla torko nd'a kaarukoy no.»
15And Elisha said to him, Take bow and arrows. And he took a bow and arrows.
15 Iliyasu ne a se: «Ni ma hangaw da biraw sambu.» A na hangawo da birawo sambu mo.
16And he said to the king of Israel, Put thy hand upon the bow. And he put his hand [upon it]; and Elisha put his hands upon the king's hands,
16 A ne Israyla bonkoono se: «Ni kamba daŋ birawo gaa.» A na nga kamba daŋ mo. Iliyasu na nga kambey dake bonkoono kambey boŋ.
17and said, Open the window eastward. And he opened [it]. And Elisha said, Shoot. And he shot. And he said, An arrow of Jehovah's deliverance, even an arrow of deliverance from the Syrians; and thou shalt smite the Syrians in Aphek, till thou hast consumed [them].
17 A ne: «Ma wayna funay haray finetaro fiti.» A n'a fiti. Iliyasu ne a se: «Hay!» A hay. A ne: «Rabbi hangawo Suriyancey boŋ, zaamayaŋ hangaw no. Zama ni ga Suriyancey kar Afek ra, hala ni m'i ŋwa.»
18And he said, Take the arrows. And he took [them]. And he said to the king of Israel, Smite upon the ground. And he smote thrice, and stayed.
18 Iliyasu ne mo: «Ma sambu hangawey.» A sambu koyne. A ne: «Israyla bonkoono ma laabo kar.» A n'a kar hala sorro hinza ka naŋ.
19And the man of God was wroth with him, and said, Thou shouldest have smitten five or six times; then wouldest thou have smitten the Syrians till thou hadst consumed [them]; whereas now thou shalt smite Syria but thrice.
19 Irikoy bora mo futu a se ka ne: «A hima ni ma kar sorro gu wala iddu. Yaadin cine no ni ga Suriya kar ka ŋwa mo. Amma sohõ sorro hinza hinne no ni ga Suriya kar.»
20And Elisha died, and they buried him. And the bands of the Moabites invaded the land at the coming in of the year.
20 Iliyasu bu, a n'a fiji mo. Jiiri tajo sintina Mowab soojey kande wongu laabo ra.
21And it came to pass as they were burying a man, that behold, they saw the band, and they cast the man into the sepulchre of Elisha; and the man went [down], and touched the bones of Elisha, and he revived, and stood upon his feet.
21 A ciya mo, i go boro fo fijiyaŋ gaa, kal i na soojeyaŋ fonnay. I na bora jindaw Iliyasu saara ra. Kaŋ bora lamba Iliyasu biriyey gaa, kal a ye ka tun ka kay nga cey boŋ.
22And Hazael king of Syria oppressed Israel all the days of Jehoahaz.
22 Suriya bonkoono Hazayel mo na Israyla kaynandi Yehowahaz jirbey kulu ra.
23And Jehovah was gracious to them, and had compassion on them, and had respect to them, because of his covenant with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob; and he would not destroy them, neither did he cast them from his presence up to that time.
23 Amma Rabbi na gomni te i se, a di i bakaraw, a fongu i gaa nga alkawlo kaŋ a sambu Ibrahim da Isaka nda Yakuba se din sabbay se. A mana yadda i m'i halaci mo, a si ba nga m'i ban jina.
24And Hazael king of Syria died, and Ben-Hadad his son reigned in his stead.
24 Suriya bonkoono Hazayel bu. A izo Ben-Hadad mo te bonkooni a nango ra.
25And Jehoash the son of Jehoahaz took again out of the hand of Ben-Hadad the son of Hazael the cities which he had taken out of the hand of Jehoahaz his father in the war. Three times did Joash beat him, and recovered the cities of Israel.
25 Yehowasa, Yehowahaz ize mo ye ka kwaarey ta Ben-Hadad, Hazayel izo kamba ra, wo kaŋ yaŋ Hazayel ta a baabo Yehowahaz kamba ra. Wongu do ce hinza no Yehowasa n'a kar, a ye ka Israyla kwaarey ta mo.
