¹Juuda kuninga Aahase kaheteistkümnendal aastal sai Hoosea, Eela poeg, Samaarias Iisraeli kuningaks üheksaks aastaks.

¹In the twelfth year of Ahaz king of Judah, Hoshea the son of Elah began to reign in Samaria over Israel, for nine years.

²Tema tegi kurja Issanda silmis, ometi mitte nõnda nagu need Iisraeli kuningad, kes olid olnud enne teda.

²And he did evil in the sight of Jehovah, but not as the kings of Israel that had been before him.

³Tema vastu tuli Assuri kuningas Salmaneser ja Hoosea sai tema alamaks ning pidi temale maksu maksma.

³Against him came up Shalmaneser king of Assyria, and Hoshea became his servant, and tendered him presents.

⁴Aga Assuri kuningas sai teada, et Hoosea sepitseb vandenõu: ta oli läkitanud käskjalad Egiptuse kuninga Soo juurde ega olnud viinud Assuri kuningale maksu nagu varem igal aastal; ja Assuri kuningas võttis ta kinni ja aheldas vangikotta.

⁴But the king of Assyria found conspiracy in Hoshea; for he had sent messengers to So king of Egypt, and sent up no present to the king of Assyria as [he had done] from year to year. And the king of Assyria shut him up and bound him in prison.

⁵Ja Assuri kuningas vallutas kogu maa ja läks Samaariasse ning piiras seda kolm aastat.

⁵And the king of Assyria overran the whole land, and went up against Samaria, and besieged it three years.

⁶Hoosea üheksandal aastal vallutas Assuri kuningas Samaaria ja viis Iisraeli asumisele Assurisse, pannes nad elama Halahhi, Haabori jõe äärde Goosanis, ja meedlaste linnadesse.

⁶In the ninth year of Hoshea, the king of Assyria took Samaria, and carried Israel away into Assyria, and placed them in Halah and by the Habor, the river of Gozan, and in the cities of the Medes.

⁷See sündis sellepärast, et Iisraeli lapsed olid pattu teinud Issanda, oma Jumala vastu, kes oli nad ära toonud Egiptusemaalt vaarao, Egiptuse kuninga käe alt, ja et nad kartsid teisi jumalaid

⁷And so it was, because the children of Israel had sinned against Jehovah their God, who had brought them up out of the land of Egypt from under the hand of Pharaoh king of Egypt, and had feared other gods;

⁸ja käisid nende rahvaste kommete järgi, keda Issand oli ära ajanud Iisraeli laste eest, ja Iisraeli kuningate kommete järgi, mida nemad olid sisse toonud.

⁸and they walked in the statutes of the nations that Jehovah had dispossessed from before the children of Israel, and of the kings of Israel, which they had made.

⁹Iisraeli lapsed olid teinud asju, mis olid ebakohased Issanda, nende Jumala ees: nad olid endile ehitanud ohvrikünkaid igasse linna, niihästi vahitornide juurde kui kindlustatud linnadesse.

⁹And the children of Israel did secretly against Jehovah their God things that were not right; and they built them high places in all their cities, from the watchmen's tower to the fortified city.

¹⁰Nad olid endile püstitanud sambaid ja viljakustulpi igale kõrgemale künkale ja iga halja puu alla.

¹⁰And they set them up columns and Asherahs on every high hill and under every green tree;

¹¹Nad olid seal, kõigil ohvrikünkail, suitsutanud nagu rahvad, keda Issand oli ära saatnud nende eest, ja olid teinud kurje asju Issanda vihastamiseks.

¹¹and there they burned incense on all the high places, as did the nations that Jehovah had carried away from before them, and they wrought wicked things to provoke Jehovah to anger;

¹²Nad olid teeninud ebajumalaid, kuigi Issand oli neile öelnud: 'Te ei tohi seda teha!'

¹²and they served idols, as to which Jehovah had said to them, Ye shall not do this thing.

¹³Ja Issand oli hoiatanud Iisraeli ja Juudat kõigi prohvetite ja kõigi nägijate läbi, öeldes: 'Pöörduge oma kurjadelt teedelt ja pidage minu käske ja määrusi vastavalt kogu Seadusele, mille ma andsin teie vanemaile ja mille pärast ma läkitasin teile sõna oma sulaste, prohvetite läbi!'

¹³And Jehovah testified against Israel and against Judah, by all the prophets, all the seers, saying, Turn from your evil ways, and keep my commandments, my statutes, according to all the law which I commanded your fathers, and which I sent to you through my servants the prophets.

¹⁴Aga nad ei kuulanud teda, vaid jäid kangekaelseiks, nõnda nagu olid olnud nende vanemad, kes ei uskunud Issandasse, oma Jumalasse.

¹⁴But they would not hear, and hardened their necks, like to the neck of their fathers, who did not believe in Jehovah their God.

¹⁵Nad põlgasid tema seadlusi ja tema lepingut, mille ta oli teinud nende vanematega, ja tema hoiatusi, millega ta neid oli hoiatanud, ja käisid tühjuse järel ning said ise tühiseks, ja rahvaste järel, kes olid neil ümberkaudu, kuigi Issand neid oli keelanud, et nad ei teeks nõnda nagu need.

¹⁵And they rejected his statutes, and his covenant which he had made with their fathers, and his testimonies which he had testified unto them; and they followed vanity and became vain, and [went] after the nations that were round about them, concerning whom Jehovah had charged them that they should not do like them.

¹⁶Nad hülgasid kõik Issanda, oma Jumala käsud ja valmistasid endile valatud kujud: kaks vasikat; nad valmistasid Aðera kuju ja kummardasid kõiki taevavägesid ning teenisid Baali.

¹⁶And they forsook all the commandments of Jehovah their God, and made them molten images, two calves, and made an Asherah, and worshipped all the host of the heavens, and served Baal;

¹⁷Ja nad lasksid oma poegi ja tütreid tulest läbi käia; nad küsitlesid ennustajaid ja toimetasid nõidust; nad müüsid endid kurja tegema Issanda silmis, vihastuseks temale.

¹⁷and they caused their sons and their daughters to pass through the fire, and used divination and enchantments, and sold themselves to do evil in the sight of Jehovah, to provoke him to anger.

¹⁸Siis Issand vihastus väga Iisraeli pärast ja ta kõrvaldas nad oma palge eest; ei jäänud üle muud kui ainult Juuda suguharu.

¹⁸Therefore Jehovah was very angry with Israel, and removed them out of his sight: there remained but the tribe of Judah only.

¹⁹Isegi Juuda ei pidanud Issanda, oma Jumala käske, vaid nad käisid nende seaduste järgi, mis Iisrael oli teinud.

¹⁹Also Judah kept not the commandments of Jehovah their God, but walked in the statutes of Israel which they had made.

²⁰Seepärast hülgas Issand kogu Iisraeli soo ja alandas neid ning andis nad riisujate kätte, heites nad viimaks hoopis ära oma palge eest.

²⁰And Jehovah rejected all the seed of Israel; and afflicted them, and delivered them into the hand of spoilers, until he had cast them out of his sight.

²¹Sest Iisrael oli ennast lahti rebinud Taaveti soost ja nad olid tõstnud kuningaks Jerobeami, Nebati poja; aga Jerobeam viis Iisraeli ära Issanda järelt ning saatis nad suurt pattu tegema.

²¹For Israel had rent [the kingdom] from the house of David; and they had made Jeroboam the son of Nebat king; and Jeroboam violently turned Israel from following Jehovah, and made them sin a great sin.

²²Ja Iisraeli lapsed käisid kõigis Jerobeami pattudes, mis ta oli teinud - neist nad ei loobunud,

²²And the children of Israel walked in all the sins of Jeroboam which he did; they did not depart from them:

²³kuni Issand viimaks kõrvaldas Iisraeli oma palge eest, nõnda nagu ta oli kuulutanud kõigi oma sulaste, prohvetite läbi; seepärast pidi Iisrael oma maalt minema võõrsile - Assurisse, kus nad on tänapäevani.

²³until Jehovah had removed Israel out of his sight, as he had said through all his servants the prophets; and Israel was carried away out of their own land to Assyria, unto this day.

²⁴Ja Assuri kuningas laskis rahvast tulla Paabelist, Kuutast, Avvast, Hamatist ja Sefarvaimist ning asustas nad Samaaria linnadesse Iisraeli laste asemele; ja nemad pärisid Samaaria ning elasid selle linnades.

²⁴And the king of Assyria brought [people] from Babylon, and from Cuthah, and from Avva, and from Hamath, and from Sepharvaim, and made them dwell in the cities of Samaria instead of the children of Israel; and they possessed Samaria, and dwelt in its cities.

²⁵Aga oma sinnaasumise alguses ei kartnud nad Issandat; siis läkitas Issand nende sekka lõvisid, kes neid tapsid.

²⁵And so it was, at the beginning of their dwelling there, that they feared not Jehovah; and Jehovah sent lions among them, which killed [some] of them.

²⁶Ja Assuri kuningale räägiti ning öeldi: 'Rahvad, keda sa viisid võõrsile ja asustasid Samaaria linnadesse, ei tunne maa Jumala õigust; seepärast on ta läkitanud nende sekka lõvisid, ja vaata, need surmavad neid, sellepärast et nad ei tunne maa Jumala õigust.'

²⁶And they spoke to the king of Assyria saying, The nations that thou hast removed and made to dwell in the cities of Samaria know not the manner of the god of the land; therefore he has sent lions among them, and behold, they slay them, because they know not the manner of the god of the land.

²⁷Siis Assuri kuningas andis käsu, öeldes: 'Viige sinna üks neist preestritest, keda te sealt olete ära toonud; ta mingu ja elagu seal ning õpetagu neile maa Jumala õigust!'

²⁷And the king of Assyria commanded saying, Carry thither one of the priests whom ye have brought away from thence; and let them go and abide there, and let him teach them the manner of the god of the land.

²⁸Nii tuli üks preestritest, keda nad olid viinud Samaariast võõrsile, ja asus Peetelisse ning õpetas neid, kuidas nad pidid Issandat kartma.

²⁸Then one of the priests whom they had carried away from Samaria came and abode in Bethel, and taught them how they should fear Jehovah.

²⁹Aga iga rahvas valmistas oma jumalad ja nad paigutasid need ohvriküngaste kodadesse, mis samaarlased olid teinud, iga rahvas oma linna, kus nad elasid.

²⁹And every nation made gods of their own, and put them in the houses of the high places that the Samaritans had made, every nation in their cities in which they dwelt.

³⁰Nii tegid Paabeli mehed Sukkot-Benoti, Kuuta mehed Neergali ja Hamati mehed Aðima;

³⁰And the people of Babylon made Succoth-benoth, and the people of Cuth made Nergal, and the people of Hamath made Ashima,

³¹avvilased tegid Nibhasi ja Tartaki, ja sefarvaimlased põletasid oma lapsi tules Adrammelekile ja Anammelekile, Sefarvaimi jumalaile.

³¹and the Avvites made Nibhaz and Tartak, and the Sepharvites burned their children in the fire to Adrammelech and Anammelech the gods of Sepharvaim.

³²Nad kartsid küll ka Issandat, aga seadsid endile iseeneste hulgast ohvriküngaste preestreid, kes nende eest ohverdasid ohvriküngaste kodades.

³²So they feared Jehovah, and made to themselves from all classes of them priests of the high places, who offered [sacrifices] for them in the houses of the high places.

³³Nad kartsid Issandat, aga teenisid oma jumalaid nende rahvaste viisil, kelle keskelt nad olid toodud võõrsile.

³³They feared Jehovah, and served their own gods after the manner of the nations, whence they had been carried away.

³⁴Tänapäevani teevad nad endiste viiside järgi: nad ei karda Issandat ja nad ei tee nende määruste ja viiside, ei Seaduse ega käskude järgi, mis Issand andis Jaakobi lastele, kellele ta pani nimeks Iisrael.

³⁴To this day they do after their former customs: they fear not Jehovah, neither do they after their statutes or after their ordinances, nor after the law and commandment that Jehovah commanded the sons of Jacob, whom he named Israel.

³⁵Issand oli teinud nendega lepingu ja oli neid käskinud, öeldes: 'Te ei tohi karta ega kummardada teisi jumalaid, samuti ei tohi te neid teenida ega neile ohverdada,

³⁵And Jehovah had made a covenant with them, and charged them saying, Ye shall not fear other gods, nor bow down yourselves to them, nor serve them, nor sacrifice to them;

³⁶vaid Issandat, kes tõi teid Egiptusemaalt ära suure jõuga ja väljasirutatud käsivarrega, peate te kartma ja kummardama, ja te peate temale ohverdama!

³⁶but Jehovah alone, who brought you up out of the land of Egypt with great power and a stretched-out arm, him shall ye fear, and him shall ye worship, and to him shall ye do sacrifice.

³⁷Neid määrusi ja seadlusi ja Seadust ja käske, mis ta teile on kirja pannud, peate te hoolsasti täitma kogu oma eluaja, aga muid jumalaid ei tohi te karta!

³⁷And the statutes and the ordinances and the law, and the commandment which he wrote for you, ye shall observe to do for evermore; and ye shall not fear other gods.

³⁸Lepingut, mille ma teiega tegin, ärge unustage! Ärge kartke muid jumalaid,

³⁸And ye shall not forget the covenant that I have made with you, neither shall ye fear other gods;

³⁹vaid kartke Issandat, oma Jumalat, siis ta päästab teid kõigi teie vaenlaste käest!'

³⁹but ye shall fear Jehovah your God, and he shall deliver you out of the hand of all your enemies.

⁴⁰Aga nemad ei kuulanud, vaid talitasid oma endisel viisil.

⁴⁰And they did not hearken, but did after their former customs.

⁴¹Ja need rahvad kartsid küll Issandat, aga nad teenisid samuti oma nikerdatud kujusid; ka nende lapsed ja nende laste lapsed teevad veel tänapäevalgi nõnda, nagu nende vanemad olid teinud.

⁴¹And these nations feared Jehovah, and served their graven images, both their children and their children's children: as did their fathers, so do they, unto this day.
