¹In the second year of Joash son of Jehoahaz, king of Israel, began Amaziah the son of Joash, king of Judah, to reign.

¹ Israyla bonkoono Yehowasa Yehowahaz izo mayra jiiri hinkanta ra no Yahuda bonkoono Amaziya Yowasa izo te bonkooni.

²He was twenty-five years old when he began to reign; and he reigned twenty-nine years in Jerusalem; and his mother's name was Jehoaddan of Jerusalem.

² A gonda jiiri waranka cindi gu waato kaŋ a sintin ka may. A may mo jiiri waranka cindi yagga Urusalima ra. A nyaŋo mo maa Yehowaddan, Urusalima boro no.

³And he did what was right in the sight of Jehovah, yet not like David his father: he did according to all that Joash his father had done.

³ Amaziya na haŋ kaŋ ga saba te Rabbi diyaŋ gaa, amma manti sanda mate kaŋ a kaayo Dawda te bo. Amma a goy da mate kaŋ cine a baabo Yowasa te.

⁴Only, the high places were not removed: the people still sacrificed and burned incense on the high places.

⁴ Kulu nda yaadin i mana tudey boŋ sududuyaŋ nangey tuusu. Hala hõ jama ga sargayyaŋ te, i ga dugu ton mo tudey boŋ sududuyaŋ nangey ra.

⁵And it came to pass when the kingdom was established in his hand, that he slew his servants who had smitten the king his father.

⁵ A ciya mo alwaato kaŋ koytara sinji a kambe ra, kal a na nga tamey kaŋ na bonkoono nga baabo wi din wi.

⁶But the children of those that smote [him] he did not put to death; according to that which is written in the book of the law of Moses, wherein Jehovah commanded saying, The fathers shall not be put to death for the children, neither shall the children be put to death for the fathers; but every man shall be put to death for his own sin.

⁶ Amma a mana wiikoy izey wi, sanda mate kaŋ i hantum Musa asariya tira ra, mate kaŋ Rabbi lordi ka ne: «I ma si baabey wi izey sabbay se, i ma si izey mo wi baabey sabbay se, amma i ma boro kulu wi nga bumbo zunubo sabbay se.»

⁷He smote of Edom in the valley of salt ten thousand, and took Sela in the war, and called the name of it Joktheel to this day.

⁷ Edom haray mo, a na boro zambar way wi Ciiri Gooro ra. A na Sela tondo ŋwa da wongu ka maa daŋ a se Yokteyel hala ka kaa sohõ.

⁸Then Amaziah sent messengers to Jehoash the son of Jehoahaz, son of Jehu, king of Israel, saying, Come, let us look one another in the face.

⁸ Alwaato din gaa Amaziya na diyayaŋ donton Israyla bonkoono Yehowasa Yehowahaz izo, Yehu ize gaa. A ne: «Kaa, iri ma care guna.»

⁹And Jehoash king of Israel sent to Amaziah king of Judah, saying, The thorn-bush that is in Lebanon sent to the cedar that is in Lebanon, saying, Give thy daughter to my son as wife; and there passed by the wild beast that is in Lebanon, and trode down the thorn-bush.

⁹ Israyla bonkoono Yehowasa mo donton Yahuda bonkoono Amaziya gaa ka ne: «Yo-karji kaŋ go Liban ra donton sedre* nya gaa kaŋ go Liban ra ka ne: ‹Ma ni ize way no ay ize aru se a ma hiiji.› Ganji ham fo mo neeya kaŋ go Liban ra, a kaa ka bisa. A na yo-karjo taamu.

¹⁰Thou hast indeed smitten Edom, and thy heart has lifted thee up: boast thyself, and abide at home; for why shouldest thou contend with misfortune, that thou shouldest fall, thou, and Judah with thee?

¹⁰ Cimi no, ni na Edom kar, ni bina mo beeri. Woodin sabbay se kala ni ga ni boŋ sifa! Kala ni ma goro fu jina. Ifo se no ni ga masiiba fisi ka kaa taray ni boŋ se, hala ni ma kaŋ, nin da Yahuda care banda?»

¹¹But Amaziah would not hear. And Jehoash king of Israel went up; and they looked one another in the face, he and Amaziah king of Judah, at Beth-shemesh, which is in Judah.

¹¹ Amma Amaziya wangu ka maa. Israyla bonkoono Yehowasa mo kaaru, nga nda Yahuda bonkoono Amaziya. I na care moyduma guna Bayt-Semes, Yahuda laabo ra.

¹²And Judah was routed before Israel; and they fled every man to his tent.

¹² Yahuda mo na goobu haŋ Israyla kambe ra, kala boro fo kulu zuru ka ye fu.

¹³And Jehoash king of Israel took Amaziah king of Judah, the son of Jehoash son of Ahaziah, at Beth-shemesh, and came to Jerusalem, and broke down the wall of Jerusalem from the gate of Ephraim to the corner-gate, four hundred cubits.

¹³ Israyla bonkoono Yehowasa mo na Yahuda bonkoono Amaziya, Yowasa izo, Ahaziya ize, di Bayt-Semes haray. A kaa Urusalima ka Urusalima birni cinaro kulu bagu za Ifraymu birni meyo gaa kal a ma koy Lokoto birni meyo gaa, kambe kar zangu taaci no.

¹⁴And he took all the gold and the silver, and all the vessels that were found in the house of Jehovah, and in the treasures of the king's house, and hostages, and returned to Samaria.

¹⁴ A na wura nda nzarfu mo sambu hala nda jinay kulu kaŋ a gar Rabbi windo ra nda bonkoono windo ra jisiyaŋ nangey ra, da tamtaray izeyaŋ mo. A ye ka kaa Samariya.

¹⁵And the rest of the acts of Jehoash, what he did, and his might, and how he fought with Amaziah king of Judah, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?

¹⁵ Yehowasa goy cindey mo kaŋ a goy, d'a soojetaray, da wongu kaŋ a te da Yahuda bonkoono Amaziya, manti i n'i hantum Israyla bonkooney baaru tira ra bo?

¹⁶And Jehoash slept with his fathers, and was buried in Samaria with the kings of Israel; and Jeroboam his son reigned in his stead.

¹⁶ Yehowasa mo kani nga kaayey banda. I n'a fiji Samariya ra Israyla bonkooney banda. A izo Yerobowam te bonkooni a nango ra.

¹⁷And Amaziah the son of Joash king of Judah lived after the death of Jehoash son of Jehoahaz, king of Israel, fifteen years.

¹⁷ Yahuda bonkoono Amaziya mo, Yowasa izo, te jiiri way cindi gu Israyla bonkoono Yehowasa Yehowahaz izo buuyaŋo banda.

¹⁸And the rest of the acts of Amaziah, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?

¹⁸ Amaziya goy cindey mo, manti i n'i hantum Yahuda bonkooney baaru tira ra bo?

¹⁹And they made a conspiracy against him in Jerusalem; and he fled to Lachish; and they sent after him to Lachish, and slew him there.

¹⁹ I na me haw a boŋ Urusalima ra kal a zuru ka koy Lacis, amma i n'a ce gana hala Lacis k'a wi noodin.

²⁰And they brought him on horses, and he was buried at Jerusalem with his fathers, in the city of David.

²⁰ I n'a za ka kand'a da bariyaŋ _torko boŋ|_ k'a fiji nga kaayey banda Urusalima ra, Dawda birno ra.

²¹And all the people of Judah took Azariah, who was sixteen years old, and made him king instead of his father Amaziah.

²¹ Yahuda borey kulu na Azariya sambu, a gonda jiiri way cindi iddu, kaŋ i n'a didiji bonkooni nga baabo Amaziya nango ra.

²²It was he that built Elath, and restored it to Judah, after the king slept with his fathers.

²² Waato kaŋ Bonkoono Amaziya kani nga kaayey banda, woodin banda Azariya na Elat cina k'a yeti Yahuda se.

²³In the fifteenth year of Amaziah the son of Joash, king of Judah, Jeroboam the son of Joash, king of Israel, began to reign in Samaria, for forty-one years.

²³ Yahuda bonkoono Amaziya Yowasa izo mayra jiiri way cindi guwanta ra no Israyla bonkoono Yerobowam Yehowasa ize te bonkooni Samariya ra. A may jiiri waytaaci cindi fo.

²⁴And 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.

²⁴ A na goy laaloyaŋ te mo Rabbi diyaŋ gaa. A mana fay da Yerobowam Nebat izo zunubey kulu mo, naŋ kaŋ a na Israyla daŋ i ma zunubi te.

²⁵He restored the border of Israel from the entrance of Hamath as far as the sea of the plain, according to the word of Jehovah the God of Israel, which he had spoken through his servant Jonah the prophet, the son of Amittai, who was of Gath-Hepher.

²⁵ A na Israyla hirrey yeti za Hamat furoyaŋo do ka koy hala Gooru Beero teeko gaa, Rabbi Israyla Irikoyo sanno boŋ, sanno kaŋ a ci nga tam annabi Yonana, Amittay izo, Gat-Hefer bora me ra.

²⁶For Jehovah saw that the affliction of Israel was very bitter; and that there was not any shut up, nor any left, nor any helper for Israel.

²⁶ Zama Rabbi faham da Israyla kankamo, kaŋ ga koroŋ boro kulu gaa gumo, boro daabantey wala boro taŋantey. Boro fo mo si no kaŋ ga Israyla gaakasinay.

²⁷And Jehovah had not said that he would blot out the name of Israel from under the heavens; and he saved them by the hand of Jeroboam the son of Joash.

²⁷ Rabbi mana ne nga ga Israyla maa tuusu beena cire, amma a n'i faaba Yerobowam Yehowasa izo kambe ra.

²⁸And the rest of the acts of Jeroboam, and all that he did, and his might, how he warred, and how he recovered for Israel that [which had belonged] to Judah in Damascus and in Hamath, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?

²⁸ Yerobowam goy cindey mo, da haŋ kaŋ a te kulu, d'a yaarutara, da wongu kaŋ a te, da Damaskos da Hamat komyaŋ kaŋ a te, wo kaŋ ciya Yahuda wane doŋ, a n'i yeti Israyla se, manti i n'i hantum Israyla bonkooney baaru tira ra bo?

²⁹And Jeroboam slept with his fathers, with the kings of Israel; and Zechariah his son reigned in his stead.

²⁹ Yerobowam mo kani nga kaayey banda, kaŋ yaŋ ga ti Israyla bonkooney. A izo Zakariya mo te bonkooni a nango ra.
