¹[Ny nanjakan'i Amazia] Dimy amby roa-polo taona Amazia, fony izy vao nanjaka, ary sivy amby roa-polo taona no nanjakany tany Jerosalema. Ary ny anaran-dreniny dia Joadana, avy any Jerosalema.

¹A son of twenty and five years hath Amaziah reigned, and twenty and nine years he hath reigned in Jerusalem, and the name of his mother [is] Jehoaddan of Jerusalem,

²Ary nanao izay mahitsy eo imason'i Jehovah izy, nefa tsy dia tamin'ny fony rehetra.

²and he doth that which is right in the eyes of Jehovah -- only, not with a perfect heart.

³Ary nony tafapetraka tsara tamin'ny fanjakany izy, dia novonoiny ireo mpanompony izay namono ny mpanjaka rainy.

³And it cometh to pass, when the kingdom hath been strong upon him, that he slayeth his servants, those smiting the king his father,

⁴Nefa ny zanak'ireo namono dia tsy mba novonoiny, fa nataony araka izay voasoratra ao amin'ny bokin'ny lalàna. dia ao amin'ny bokin'i Mosesy, izay nandidian'i Jehovah hoe: Ny ray tsy hatao maty amin'ny ataon'ny zanany, ary ny zanaka tsy hatao maty amin'ny ataon'ny rainy, fa samy ho faty amin'ny fahotany avy ny olona.

⁴and their sons he hath not put to death, but [did] as is written in the law, in the book of Moses, whom Jehovah commanded, saying, `Fathers do not die for sons, and sons die not for fathers, but each for his own sin they die.'

⁵Ary novorin'i Amazia ny Joda, ka nalahany araka ny fianakaviany avy, dia araka ny mpifehy arivo sy ny mpifehy zato avy amin'ny Joda sy ny Benjamina rehetra: dia nisainy ny hatramin'ny roa-polo taona no ho miakatra, ka olona telo hetsy voafantina no hitany, izay azo nalefa hanafika sady nahatan-defona sy ampinga lehibe.

⁵And Amaziah gathereth Judah, and appointeth them, according to the house of the fathers, for heads of the thousands, and for heads of the hundreds, for all Judah and Benjamin; and he inspecteth them from a son of twenty years and upward, and findeth them three hundred thousand chosen ones, going forth to the host, holding spear and target.

⁶Ary nisy lehilahy mahery iray hetsy tamin'ny Isiraely nokaramainy talenta volafotsy zato.

⁶And he hireth out of Israel a hundred thousand mighty ones of valour, with a hundred talents of silver;

⁷Nefa nisy lehilahin'Andriamanitra tonga tao aminy ka nanao hoe: Ry mpanjaka, aza avela hanaraka anao ny miaramilan'ny Isiraely; fa tsy omban'i Jehovah ny Isiraely, dia ny taranak'i Efraima rehetra.

⁷and a man of God hath come in unto him, saying, `O king, the host of Israel doth not go with thee; for Jehovah is not with Israel -- all the sons of Ephraim;

⁸Fa mandehana ihany ianao, ka manaova, ary mahereza amin'ny ady; fa hataon'Andriamanitra lavo eo anoloan'ny fahavalo ianao; fa Andriamanitra no mahay mamonjy sy mampahalavo.

⁸but if thou art going -- do [it], be strong for battle, God doth cause thee to stumble before an enemy, for there is power in God to help, and to cause to stumble.'

⁹Fa hoy Amazia tamin'ilay lehilahin'Andriamanitra: Ka hataontsika ahoana ny amin'ny talenta zato nomeko ny miaramilan'ny Isiraely? Asy hoy ilay lehilahin'Andriamanitra taminy: Jehovah mahay manome anao mihoatra lavitra noho izany.

⁹And Amaziah saith to the man of God, `And what -- to do for the hundred talents that I have given to the troop of Israel?' And the man of God saith, `Jehovah hath more to give to thee than this.'

¹⁰Dia navahan'i Amazia ireo miaramila tonga tao aminy avy tamin'ny Efraima ireo mba hody indray; ary nirehitra mafy ny fahatezeran'ireo tamin'ny Joda, dia lasa nody izy sady tezitra indrindra.

¹⁰And Amaziah separateth them -- for the troop that hath come in unto him from Ephraim to go to their own place, and their anger doth burn mightily against Judah, and they turn back to their place in the heat of anger.

¹¹Ary Amazia nitombo hery, dia nitarika ny vahoakany ka nankany amin'ny Lohasahan-tsira, ary nahafaty iray alina tamin'ny taranak'i Seira izy.

¹¹And Amaziah hath strengthened himself, and leadeth his people, and goeth to the Valley of Salt, and smiteth the sons of Seir -- ten thousand.

¹²Ary ny iray alina sisa nataon'ny taranak'i Joda sambo-belona, dia nentiny teo an-tampon'ny hantsam-bato ary navariny teo, ka montsamontsana izy rehetra.

¹²And ten thousand alive have the sons of Judah taken captive, and they bring them to the top of the rock, and cast them from the top of the rock, and all of them have been broken.

¹³Fa ireo miaramila izay nampodin'i Amazia tsy hiara-manafika aminy dia nihahakahaka teny an-tanànan'ny Joda hatrany Samaria ka hatrany Beti-horona ka nahafaty olona telo arivo tany sady nahazo babo betsaka.

¹³And the sons of the troop that Amaziah hath sent back from going with him to battle -- they rush against cities of Judah, from Samaria even unto Beth-Horon, and smite of them three thousand, and seize much prey.

¹⁴Ary Amazia, nony niverina avy nanafika ny Edomita, dia nitondra ny andriamanitry ny taranak'i Seira ka nanangana azy ho andriamaniny; ary niankohoka teo anatrehany izy sady nandoro ditin-kazo manitra ho azy.

¹⁴And it cometh to pass, after the coming in of Amaziah from smiting the Edomites, that he bringeth in the gods of the sons of Seir, and establisheth them to him for gods, and before them doth bow himself, and to them he maketh perfume.

¹⁵Dia nirehitra tamin'Amazia ny fahatezeran'i Jehovah, ka naniraka mpaminany anankiray ho any aminy Izy hanontany azy, hoe: Nahoana ianao no mitady ny andriamanitry ny firenena, izay tsy naharo ny olony tamin'ny tananao aza?

¹⁵And the anger of Jehovah burneth against Amaziah, and He sendeth unto him a prophet, and he saith unto him, `Why hast thou sought the gods of the people that have not delivered their people out of thy hand?'

¹⁶Ary raha niteny taminy izy, dia novaliany hoe: Moa voatendrinay ho mpanolo-tsaina ny mpanjaka va Hianao? Aoka itsy ange, fandrao asian'ny olona ianao. Dia nitsahatra ilay mpaminany ka nanao hoe: Fantatro fa Andriamanitra mikasa hahafaty anao satria nanao izany ianao ka tsy nihaino ny anatro.

¹⁶And it cometh to pass, in his speaking unto him, that he saith to him, `For a counsellor to the king have we appointed thee? cease for thee; why do they smite thee?' And the prophet ceaseth, and saith, `I have known that God hath counselled to destroy thee, because thou hast done this, and hast not hearkened to my counsel.'

¹⁷Ary Amazia. mpanjakan'ny Joda, naka hevitra, dia naniraka tany amin'i Joasy, zanak'i Joahaza, zanak'i Jeho, mpanjakan'ny Isiraely, izy hanao hoe: Avia, aoka isika hihaona.

¹⁷And Amaziah king of Judah taketh counsel, and sendeth unto Joash son of Jehoahaz, son of Jehu, king of Israel, saying,

¹⁸Fa Joasy, mpanjakan'ny Isiraely, naniraka tany amin'i Amazia, mpanjakan'ny Joda, nanao hoe: Ny tsilo izay tany Libanona naniraka tamin'ny hazo sedera izay tany Libanona nanao hoe: Omeo ny zanakolahy ny zanakaovavy ho vadiny; dia namaky teo ny bibi-dia tany Libanona ka nanosihosy ny tsilo.

¹⁸`Come, we look one another in the face.' And Joash king of Israel sendeth unto Amaziah king of Judah, saying, `The thorn that [is] in Lebanon hath sent unto the cedar that [is] in Lebanon, saying, Give thy daughter to my son for a wife; and pass by doth a beast of the field that [is] in Lebanon, and treadeth down the thorn.

¹⁹Lazainao fa namely an'i Edoma ianao, ka dia nanesika anao hirehareha ny fonao; mitoera ihany ange ao an-tranonao, fa nahoana no hihaika ny loza hahalavo ny tenanao mbamin'ny Joda koa ianao?

¹⁹Thou hast said, Lo, I have smitten Edom; and thy heart hath lifted thee up to boast; now, abide in thy house, why dost thou stir thyself up in evil, that thou hast fallen, thou, and Judah with thee?'

²⁰Fa tsy nanaiky Amazia, satria avy tamin'Andriamanitra izany, mba hanolorany azy ho eo an-tànan'ny fahavalony noho ny nitadiavany ny andriamanitry ny Edomita.

²⁰And Amaziah hath not hearkened, for from God it [is] in order to give them into hand, because they have sought the gods of Edom;

²¹Ka dia niakatra Joasy, mpanjakan'ny Isiraely; ary izy sy Amazia, mpanjakan'ny Joda, nihaona tany Beti-semesy izay an'i Joda.

²¹and go up doth Joash king of Israel, and they look one another in the face, he and Amaziah king of Judah, in Beth-Shemesh, that [is] Judah's,

²²Dia resy teo anoloan'ny Isiraely ny Joda, ka samy nandositra ho any amin'ny lainy avy izy.

²²and Judah is smitten before Israel, and they flee -- each to his tents.

²³Ary Amazia, mpanjakan'ny Joda, zanak'Joasy, zanak'i Joahaza, dia nosamborin'i Joasy, mpanjakan'ny Isiraely, tany Beti-semesy ka nentiny nankany Jerosalema; ary nandravan'i Joasy efa-jato hakiho ny mandan'i Jerosalema hatramin'ny vavahadin'i Efraima ka hatramin'ny vavahady anjorony.

²³And Amaziah king of Judah, son of Joash, son of Jehoahaz, hath Joash king of Israel caught in Beth-Shemesh, and bringeth him in to Jerusalem, and breaketh down in the wall of Jerusalem from the gate of Ephraim unto the gate of the corner, four hundred cubits,

²⁴Ary nalainy avokoa ny volamena sy ny volafotsy rehetra ary ny fanaka rehetra izay hita tao an-tranon'Andriamanitra tao amin'i Obed-edoma sy tamin'ny rakitry ny tranon'ny mpanjaka mbamin'ny olona natao antoka koa, ka dia niverina ho any Samaria izy.

²⁴and [taketh] all the gold, and the silver, and all the vessels that are found in the house of God with Obed-Edom, and the treasures of the house of the king, and the sons of the pledges, and turneth back to Samaria.

²⁵Ary ny andro niainan'i Amazia zanak'i Joasy, mpanjakan'ny Joda, taorian'ny nahafatesan'i Joasy, zanak'i Joahaza, mpanjakan'ny Isiraely, dia dimy ambin'ny folo taona.

²⁵And Amaziah son of Joash, king of Judah, liveth after the death of Joash son of Jehoahaz, king of Israel, fifteen years;

²⁶Ary ny tantaran'i Amazia sisa, na ny voalohany na ny farany, indro, tsy efa voasoratra ao amin'ny bokin'ny mpanjakan'ny Joda sy ny Isiraely va izany?

²⁶and the rest of the matters of Amaziah, the first and the last, lo, are they not written on the books of the kings of Judah and Israel?

²⁷Ary hatramin'ny andro nihemoran'i Amazia tsy nanaraka an'i Jehovah dia niodina taminy tany Jerosalema ny olona, ka dia nandositra nankany Lakisy izy; fa naniraka nanaraka azy tany ny olona ka namono azy tany.Ary nasampiny tamin'ny soavaly ny fatiny, dia naleviny tao amin'ny razany tao an-tanànan'ny Joda.

²⁷And from the time that Amaziah hath turned aside from after Jehovah -- they make a conspiracy against him in Jerusalem, and he fleeth to Lachish, and they send after him to Lachish, and put him to death there,

²⁸Ary nasampiny tamin'ny soavaly ny fatiny, dia naleviny tao amin'ny razany tao an-tanànan'ny Joda.

²⁸and lift him up on the horses, and bury him with his fathers in the city of Judah.
