1Jehoshaphat slept with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers in the city of David: and Jehoram his son reigned in his place.
1Laj Josafat quicam ut quimukeß saß lix tenamit laj David bar quimukeß cuiß lix xeßtônil yucuaß. Ut aß chic laj Joram li ralal qui-oc chokß xreyeb laj Judá chokß rêkaj.
2He had brothers, the sons of Jehoshaphat: Azariah, and Jehiel, and Zechariah, and Azariah, and Michael, and Shephatiah; all these were the sons of Jehoshaphat king of Israel.
2Eb li rîtzßin laj Joram, aßaneb laj Azarías, laj Jehiel, laj Zacarías, laj Azarías, laj Micael ut laj Sefatías. Chixjunileb aßan ralal laj Josafat li quicuan chokß xreyeb laj Judá.
3Their father gave them great gifts, of silver, and of gold, and of precious things, with fortified cities in Judah: but the kingdom gave he to Jehoram, because he was the firstborn.
3Lix yucuaßeb quixsi reheb nabal li oro, li plata ut cßaßak chic re ru li terto xtzßak. Ut quixqßue ajcuiß reheb li tenamit li ac cauresinbileb re teßxcol cuiß ribeb aran Judá. Abanan quixxakab laj Joram chi oc chokß rey chokß rêkaj xban nak aßan li xbên alalbej.
4Now when Jehoram was risen up over the kingdom of his father, and had strengthened himself, he killed all his brothers with the sword, and various also of the princes of Israel.
4Nak ac xakxo saß xnaßaj lix cuanquil laj Joram quixcamsiheb chi chßîchß chixjunileb li rîtzßin. Ut cuanqueb ajcuiß li nequeßtaklan sa xyânkeb laj Israel quixcamsiheb.
5Jehoram was thirty-two years old when he began to reign; and he reigned eight years in Jerusalem.
5Cablaju xcaßcßâl chihab cuan re nak qui-oc chokß rey. Cuakxakib chihab quicuan saß xcuanquil aran Jerusalén.
6He walked in the way of the kings of Israel, as did the house of Ahab; for he had the daughter of Ahab as wife: and he did that which was evil in the sight of Yahweh.
6Laj Joram quixbânu li mâusilal joß queßxbânu eb li rey li queßcuan Israel xban nak quixcßam chokß rixakil lix rabin laj Acab. Ut quixbânu li incßaß us chiru li Kâcuaß.
7However Yahweh would not destroy the house of David, because of the covenant that he had made with David, and as he promised to give a lamp to him and to his children always.
7Abanan li Kâcuaß incßaß quiraj xsachbal ruheb li ralal xcßajol laj David xban li contrato li quixbânu riqßuin laj David nak quixye re nak junelic cuânk junak reheb li ralal xcßajol tâoc chokß rey.
8In his days Edom revolted from under the hand of Judah, and made a king over themselves.
8Saß eb li cutan nak laj Joram cuan saß xcuanquil aran Judá, eb laj Edom queßpletic riqßuineb. Queßrisi ribeb rubel xcuanquil ut queßxxakab xreyeb.
9Then Jehoram passed over with his captains, and all his chariots with him: and he rose up by night, and struck the Edomites who surrounded him, along with the captains of the chariots.
9Joßcan nak laj Joram queßcôeb rochbeneb lix soldados ut chixjunileb lix carruaje re pletic. Eb laj Edom queßxsut lix soldâdeb laj Joram. Abanan chiru li kßojyîn laj Joram ut eb lix soldados queßcuacli ut queßnumta saß xbêneb laj Edom.
10So Edom revolted from under the hand of Judah to this day: then Libnah revolted at the same time from under his hand, because he had forsaken Yahweh, the God of his fathers.
10Abanan eb laj Edom queßrisi ajcuiß ribeb rubel xcuanquileb laj Judá toj chalen anakcuan. Joßcan ajcuiß li tenamit Libna. Saß ajcuiß li cutan aßan queßrisi ribeb rubel xcuanquil. Quicßulman chi joßcan xban nak laj Joram quixtzßektâna li Kâcuaß lix Dioseb lix xeßtônil yucuaß.
11Moreover he made high places in the mountains of Judah, and made the inhabitants of Jerusalem to play the prostitute, and led Judah astray.
11Ut quixyîb ajcuiß eb li naßajej li najt xteram saß eb li tzûl aran Judá. Ut quicßamoc be chiruheb li tenamit li cuanqueb Jerusalén ut Judá chixtzßektânanquil li Kâcuaß ut chixlokßoninquil li jalanil dios.
12A letter came to him from Elijah the prophet, saying, “Thus says Yahweh, the God of David your father, ‘Because you have not walked in the ways of Jehoshaphat your father, nor in the ways of Asa king of Judah,
12Laj Joram quixcßul li hu li quitaklâc re xban li profeta Elías. Quixye chi joßcaßin saß li hu: “Joßcaßin xye li Kâcuaß lix Dios laj David lâ yucuaß. Lâat incßaß xabânu li us joß xbânu laj Josafat lâ yucuaß, chi moco xabânu joß quixbânu laj Asa li quicuan chokß xreyeb laj Judá.
13but have walked in the way of the kings of Israel, and have made Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem to play the prostitute, like the house of Ahab did, and also have slain your brothers of your father’s house, who were better than yourself:
13Lâat xabânu joß queßxbânu eb li rey li queßcuan Israel. Lâat xatcßamoc be chiruheb laj Judá ut chiruheb laj Jerusalén chixtzßektânanquil li Kâcuaß ut chixlokßoninquil li jalanil dios joß queßxbânu li ralal xcßajol laj Acab. Ut xacamsiheb lâ cuîtzßin junaj raj êyucuaß. Aßaneb tîqueb xchßôl châcuu lâat.
14behold, Yahweh will strike with a great plague your people, and your children, and your wives, and all your substance;
14Joßcan nak li Kâcuaß tixtakla li yajel saß âbên. Kßaxal ra teßxcßul lê tenamit, joß lâ cuixakil, joß lâ cualal âcßajol, joß ajcuiß chixjunil li cßaßru cuan âcue.
15and you shall have great sickness by disease of your bowels, until your bowels fall out by reason of the sickness, day by day.’”
15Ut tixqßue ajcuiß jun nimla yajel saß âbên lâat toj retal tâêlk lâ cßamcßot.”
16Yahweh stirred up against Jehoram the spirit of the Philistines, and of the Arabians who are beside the Ethiopians:
16Chirix aßan li Kâcuaß quixqßue saß xchßôleb laj filisteo nak teßjoskßok saß xbên laj Joram. Joßcan ajcuiß eb laj árabes li cuanqueb nachß riqßuineb laj Etiopía. Ut xicß chic queßril laj Joram.
17and they came up against Judah, and broke into it, and carried away all the substance that was found in the king’s house, and his sons also, and his wives; so that there was never a son left him, except Jehoahaz, the youngest of his sons.
17Ut queßcôeb chi pletic riqßuineb laj Judá. Queßoc saß lix tenamit ut queßxcßam chokß reheb chixjunil li terto xtzßak li queßxtau saß rochoch li rey. Ut queßxcßam ajcuiß chokß reheb eb li ralal ut eb li rixakil. Mâ jun chic li ralal laj Joram queßcana. Caßaj chic laj Joacaz li îtzßinbej, li nequeßxye ajcuiß Ocozías re.
18After all this Yahweh struck him in his bowels with an incurable disease.
18Chirix aßan li Kâcuaß quixqßue jun xyajel lix saß li rey Joram. Mâcßaß xbanol.
19It happened, in process of time, at the end of two years, that his bowels fell out by reason of his sickness, and he died of severe diseases. His people made no burning for him, like the burning of his fathers.
19Yô chic xcab chihab nak quiniman xyajel toj retal qui-el lix cßamcßot ut riqßuin aßan quicam. Kßaxal ra quixcßul. Eb li tenamit incßaß queßxloch li xam re xqßuebal xlokßal joß queßxbânu nak queßcam eb lix xeßtônil yucuaß.Cablaju xcaßcßâl chihab cuan re laj Joram nak qui-oc chokß rey. Cuakxakib chihab quicuan saß xcuanquil aran Jerusalén. Mâ ani quirahoß xchßôl nak quicam. Quimukeß saß lix tenamit laj David, abanan mâcuaß saß li naßajej li queßmukeß cuiß eb li rey.
20Thirty-two years old was he when he began to reign, and he reigned in Jerusalem eight years: and he departed without being desired; and they buried him in the city of David, but not in the tombs of the kings.
20Cablaju xcaßcßâl chihab cuan re laj Joram nak qui-oc chokß rey. Cuakxakib chihab quicuan saß xcuanquil aran Jerusalén. Mâ ani quirahoß xchßôl nak quicam. Quimukeß saß lix tenamit laj David, abanan mâcuaß saß li naßajej li queßmukeß cuiß eb li rey.
