2 Mbiri 34

1 Yosiya anali wa zaka zisanu ndi zitatu pamene anakhala mfumu, ndipo analamulira mu Yerusalemu kwa zaka 31.

Yosia bedii ade no, na wadi mfirihyia awotwe, na odii hene wɔ Yerusalem mfirihyia aduasa baako.

2 Iye anachita zolungama pamaso pa Yehova ndi kutsata makhalidwe a Davide abambo ake, osatembenukira kumanja kapena kumanzere.

Ɔyɛɛ nea ɛsɔ Awurade ani, yɛɛ nea ne tete agya Dawid yɛe no bi. Wamfi adetreneeyɛ ho.

3 Mʼchaka chachisanu ndi chitatu cha ulamuliro wake, iye akanalibe wamngʼono, anayamba kufunafuna Mulungu wa Davide abambo ake. Mʼchaka cha khumi ndi chiwiri iye anayamba kuyeretsa Yuda ndi Yerusalemu kuchotsa malo azipembedzo, mafano a Asera, milungu yosema ndi mafano owumbidwa.

Yosia fii ase hwehwɛɛ ne tete agya Dawid Nyankopɔn akyi kwan bere a na ɔda so yɛ abofra a wadi ade mfe awotwe no. Ne mfe dumien so no, odwiraa Yuda ne Yerusalem, sɛee abosonsom nsɔree so nyinaa, Asera nnua, ahoni a wɔasen ne nsɛsode a wɔagu no nyinaa.

4 Maguwa ansembe a Baala anagwetsedwa iye atalamulira. Anadula zidutswazidutswa maguwa ofukizira lubani amene anali pamwamba pake, ndipo anaphwanya mafano a Asera, milungu ndi zifaniziro zake. Anaziperapera ndipo anaziwaza pamwamba pa manda a amene ankapereka nsembe kwa mafanowo.

Ɔhwɛ ma wobubuu Baal afɔremuka no ne nnuhuam afɔremuka no nyinaa gui. Ɔma wɔdwerɛw Asera nnua ne ahoni nyinaa, na wɔtow petee awufo a wɔbɔɔ saa afɔre no nna so.

5 Iye anatentha mafupa a ansembe pa maguwa awo, kotero iye anayeretsa Yuda ndi Yerusalemu.

Ɔhyew akɔmfo no nnompe no wɔ wɔn ankasa afɔremuka so, nam so dwiraa Yuda ne Yerusalem.

6 Ku mizinda ya Manase, Efereimu ndi Simeoni mpaka kufika ku Nafutali, ndiponso malo a mabanja owazungulira,

Ɔyɛɛ saa ara wɔ Manase, Efraim ne Simeon nkurow so de koduu Naftali.

7 iye anagwetsa maguwa ansembe ndi mafano a Asera ndi kuphwanyaphwanya milungu yawo kukhala fumbi ndi kuduladula maguwa ofukizapo lubani mʼdziko lonse la Israeli. Atatero, anabwerera ku Yerusalemu.

Ɔsɛee abosonsomfo afɔremuka, Asera nnua, na ɔyam ahoni no muhumuhu. Odwiriw nnuhuam afɔremuka a ɛwɔ Israelman mu nyinaa, na ɔsan kɔɔ Yerusalem.

8 Mʼchaka cha 18 cha ulamuliro wa Yosiya, atayeretsa dziko ndi Yerusalemu, Yosiya anatuma Safani mwana wa Azariya ndi Maaseya, wolamulira mzinda pamodzi ndi Yowa mwana wa Yowahazi mlembi wolemba mbiri, kuti akonze Nyumba ya Yehova Mulungu wake.

Nʼadedi mfe dunwɔtwe so no a owiee asase no ne asɔredan no ho dwira no, Yosia yii Asalia babarima Safan, Maaseia a ɔyɛ Yerusalem amrado ne Yoahas babarima Yoa, adehye abakɔsɛm kyerɛwfo, sɛ wonsiesie Awurade, ne Nyankopɔn asɔredan no.

9 Iwo anapita kwa Hilikiya, mkulu wa ansembe ndipo anamupatsa ndalama zimene zinaperekedwa mʼNyumba ya Mulungu, zimene Alevi amene anali alonda apakhomo analandira kuchokera kwa anthu a ku Manase, Efereimu ndi onse otsala a ku Israeli ndiponso anthu onse ochokera ku Yuda ndi Benjamini ndi okhala mu Yerusalemu.

Wɔde sika a Lewifo a wɔsom sɛ aponanohwɛfo agyigyee wɔ Onyankopɔn Asɔredan ho no maa ɔsɔfopanyin Hilkia. Manase ne Efraim nkurɔfo ne Israel nkae nyinaa ne Yuda ne Benyamin ne Yerusalemfo na wɔde akyɛde no bae.

10 Ndipo anazipereka mʼmanja mwa anthu amene anasankhidwa kuti ayangʼanire ntchito ya Nyumba ya Yehova. Anthu amenewa ankalipira antchito amene ankakonzanso Nyumba ya Mulungu.

Ɔde sika no maa nnipa a wɔayi wɔn sɛ wɔnhwɛ, nsiesie Awurade Asɔredan no. Na wotuaa wɔn a wɔyɛɛ adwuma no ka.

11 Iwo anaperekanso ndalama kwa amisiri a matabwa ndi amisiri omanga nyumba kuti agule miyala yosema ndi matabwa a phaso la nyumba ndi nsichi zomangira zomwe mfumu ya Yuda inalekerera kuti zigwe ndi kuwonongeka.

Wɔbɔɔ nnuadwumfo ne adansifo paa, tɔɔ abo a wɔatwa a wɔde besiesie afasu no ne nnua a wɔde bɛyɛ nsɛmso ne mpuran. Wosiesie nea anka Yuda ahemfo a wodii kan no rema asɛe no.

12 Anthuwa anagwira ntchitoyi mokhulupirika. Amene ankawayangʼanira anali Yahati ndi Obadiya, Alevi ochokera ku banja la Merari, ndi Zekariya ndi Mesulamu ochokera ku banja la Kohati. Alevi onse amene anali aluso loyimbira zida za nyimbo

Adwumayɛfo no de nokwaredi yɛɛ adwuma. Yahat ne Obadia a wɔyɛ Lewifo a wofi Merarifo abusua mu, ne Sakaria ne Mesulam a wɔyɛ Lewifo a wofi Kohatfo abusua mu na wɔhwɛɛ adwumayɛfo no so. Lewifo a wɔaka a wɔn nyinaa wɔ nnwontode ho nimdeɛ no,

13 ankayangʼanira anthu onyamula katundu, namatsogolera anthu onse amene ankagwira ntchito iliyonse yotumikira. Alevi ena anali alembi, akapitawo ndiponso alonda apamakomo.

wɔma wɔhwɛɛ adwumayɛfo akuw ahorow no so. Na afoforo bi nso yɛɛ adwuma sɛ akyerɛwfo, mpanyimfo ne aponanohwɛfo.

14 Pa nthawi imene ankatulutsa ndalama zimene anabwera nazo ku Nyumba ya Yehova, wansembe Hilikiya anapeza Buku la Malamulo limene linaperekedwa kudzera mwa Mose.

Na ɔsɔfopanyin Hilkia rekyerɛkyerɛw sika a wɔagyigye wɔ Awurade Asɔredan no ho no, ohuu Awurade mmara nhoma a wɔnam Mose so de mae no.

15 Hilikiya anati kwa Safani, mlembi wa zochitika, “Ine ndapeza Buku la Malamulo mʼNyumba ya Yehova.” Iye analipereka kwa Safani.

Na Hilkia ka kyerɛɛ Safan a ɔyɛ asennii kyerɛwfo no se, “Mahu mmara nhoma no wɔ Awurade Asɔredan no mu.” Na Hilkia de nhoma mmobɔwee no maa Safan.

16 Ndipo Safani anapita nalo bukulo kwa mfumu ndi kumufotokozera kuti: “Akuluakulu anu akuchita zonse zimene zinapatsidwa kwa iwo.

Safan de nhoma mmobɔwee no kɔmaa ɔhene kae se, “Wo mpanyimfo no reyɛ biribiara a wɔkyerɛɛ wɔn sɛ wɔnyɛ no.

17 Iwo alipira ndalama zimene zinali mʼNyumba ya Yehova ndipo azipereka kwa akapitawo ndi anthu antchito.”

Wɔatua sika a wogyigyee wɔ Awurade Asɔredan no mu no na wɔde ahyɛ wɔn a wɔhwɛ so no ne adwumayɛfo no nsa.”

18 Kenaka Safani, mlembi wa zochitika anawuza mfumu, “Wansembe, Hilikiya wandipatsa ine buku ili.” Ndipo Safani anawerenga bukulo pamaso pa mfumu.

Safan ka kyerɛɛ ɔhene no se, “Ɔsɔfopanyin Hilkia de nhoma mmobɔwee bi ama me.” Na Safan kenkan kyerɛɛ ɔhene.

19 Mfumu itamva mawu a Buku la Malamulo, inangʼamba mkanjo wake.

Bere a ɔhene no tee mmara no mu nsɛm no, ɔde ahometew sunsuan ne ntade mu.

20 Iye analamula izi kwa Hilikiya, Ahikamu mwana wa Safani, Abidoni mwana wa Mika, Safani mlembi wa zochitika ndi Asaya mtumiki wa mfumu:

Ɔhyɛɛ Hilkia, Safan babarima Ahikam, Mika babarima Abdon, asennii kyerɛwfo Safan ne ɔhene fotufo Asaia se,

21 “Pitani ndipo mukafunse Yehova mʼmalo mwanga ndi mʼmalo mwa otsala a Israeli ndi Yuda za zimene zalembedwa mʼbuku limene lapezekali. Mkwiyo wa Yehova ndi waukulu umene watsanulidwa pa ife chifukwa makolo athu sanasunge mawu a Yehova. Iwo sanachite motsatira zonse zimene zalembedwa mʼbuku ili.”

“Monkɔ Asɔredan no mu na mo ne Awurade nkɔkasa mma me ne Israel ne Yuda nkae nyinaa. Mummisa no nsɛm a wɔakyerɛw wɔ saa nhoma mmobɔwee a wɔahu no mu ho nsɛm. Awurade abufuw aba yɛn so, efisɛ yɛn agyanom anni Awurade asɛm so. Yɛnyɛ nea nhoma mmobɔwee yi ka sɛ yɛnyɛ no.”

22 Hilikiya pamodzi ndi anthu amene anawatuma aja, anapita kukayankhula ndi mneneri wamkazi Hulida, amene anali mkazi wa Salumu mwana wa Tokati, mwana wa Hasira, wosunga zovala zaufumu. Hulida ankakhala mu Yerusalemu, mʼdera lachiwiri la mzindawo.

Hilkia ne mmarima a wɔaka no kɔɔ odiyifobea Hulda a na ɔyɛ Tikwat babarima Salum yere ne Hasra a na ɔhwɛ Asɔredan mu adakaten so no nena nkyɛn, wɔ Yerusalem fa bi a wɔfrɛ hɔ se Misne.

23 Iye anati kwa anthuwo, “Yehova Mulungu wa Israeli akuti, muwuzeni munthu amene wakutumani kwa ineyo kuti,

Ɔbea no ka kyerɛɛ wɔn se, “Awurade, Israel Nyankopɔn, akasa! Monkɔka nkyerɛ onipa a ɔsomaa mo no se,

24 ‘Yehova akunena kuti, Ine ndidzabweretsa mavuto pamalo pano ndi pa anthu ake, matemberero onse amene alembedwa mʼbukuli amene awerengedwa pamaso pa mfumu ya Yuda.

‘Sɛnea Awurade se ni: Akyinnye biara nni ho sɛ, mɛsɛe saa kurow yi ne emu nnipa. Nnome a wɔakyerɛw wɔ nhoma mmobɔwee a moakenkan yi mu nyinaa bɛba mu.

25 Chifukwa iwo anasiya Ine ndi kufukiza lubani kwa milungu ina ndi kuwutsa mkwiyo wanga ndi zonse zimene manja awo anapanga, mkwiyo wanga udzatsanulidwa pamalo pano ndipo sudzazimitsidwa.’

Efisɛ nnipa a wɔwɔ Yuda apa me na wɔsom abosonsomfo anyame. Ɛno nti, me bo afuw wɔn yiye wɔ biribiara a wɔayɛ ho. Mʼabufuw behwie agu saa beae ha, na biribiara rentumi nsiw ano.’

26 Uzani mfumu ya Yuda imene yakutumani kuti mudzafunse kwa Yehova Mulungu wa Israeli, ‘Chimene Yehova, Mulungu wa Israeli akunena mokhudzana ndi mawu amene mwamva ndi ichi:

Na monkɔ Yudahene a ɔsomaa mo sɛ monkɔhwehwɛ Awurade no nkyɛn, na monka nkyerɛ no se, ‘Sɛɛ na Awurade, Israel Nyankopɔn, ka fa asɛm a motee mprempren no ho.

27 Pakuti mtima wako walapa, ndipo wadzichepetsa wekha pamaso pa Mulungu pamene unamva zimene Iye ananena motsutsa malo ano ndi anthu ake, ndipo chifukwa iwe unadzichepetsa wekha pamaso pa Ine ndi kungʼamba zovala zako ndi kulira pamaso panga, ndamva pemphero lako, atero Yehova.

28 Tsono Ine ndidzakutengera kwa makolo ako, ndipo udzayikidwa mʼmanda mwamtendere. Maso ako sadzaona mavuto onse amene Ine ndidzabweretsa pa malo ano ndi pa iwo amene amakhala pano.’” Choncho iwo anatenga yankho lakelo ndi kubwerera kwa mfumu.

Meremma amanehunu a mahyehyɛ atia kuropɔn yi ne emu nnipa no mma mu, kosi sɛ wubewu na wɔasie wo asomdwoe mu. Worenhu amane a mede bɛba beae yi so.’” Enti wɔsan de ɔbea no nkra kɔmaa ɔhene no.

29 Ndipo mfumu inasonkhanitsa pamodzi akuluakulu onse a Yuda ndi Yerusalemu.

Na ɔhene no frɛɛ Yuda ne Yerusalem ntuanofo nyinaa.

30 Iye anapita ku Nyumba ya Yehova pamodzi ndi anthu a Yuda, anthu a mu Yerusalemu, ansembe ndi Alevi, anthu onse kuyambira wamngʼono mpaka wamkulu. Iye anawerenga pamaso pawo mawu onse a Buku la Chipangano, limene linapezeka mʼNyumba ya Yehova.

Na ɔhene no ne Yuda ne Yerusalem manfo nyinaa ne asɔfo ne Lewifo, nnipa no nyinaa, fi ɔkɛse so kosi akumaa so, kɔɔ Awurade Asɔredan no mu. Ɛhɔ na ɔhene no kenkan apam nhoma a wohuu wɔ Awurade Asɔredan mu no kyerɛɛ wɔn.

31 Mfumu inayimirira pa chipilala chake ndipo inachitanso pangano pamaso pa Yehova: kutsatira Yehova, ndi kusunga malamulo ake, machitidwe ake ndi malangizo ake ndi mtima wake wonse ndi moyo wake wonse, ndi kumvera mawu a pangano olembedwa mʼbukulo.

Ɔhene no gyinaa nʼafa wɔ afadum no nkyɛn, na otii apam no mu wɔ Awurade anim. Ɔhyɛɛ bɔ sɛ ofi ne koma ne ne kra nyinaa mu bedi Awurade mmaransɛm, ahyɛde ne mmara so. Ɔhyɛɛ bɔ sɛ, obedi apam no mu nhyehyɛe a wɔakyerɛw wɔ nhoma mmobɔwee no mu no so.

32 Tsono Yosiya anawuza aliyense amene anali mu Yerusalemu ndi Benjamini kuti azisunga panganoli. Anthu a mu Yerusalemu anachita izi motsata pangano la Mulungu, Mulungu wa makolo awo.

Na ɔka kyerɛɛ obiara a ɔwɔ Yerusalem ne nnipa a wɔwɔ Benyamin no se, wɔnhyɛ bɔ saa ara. Ɔmanfo a wɔwɔ Yerusalem yɛɛ saa no, wɔde tii wɔne Onyankopɔn, wɔn agyanom Nyankopɔn apam no mu.

33 Yosiya anachotsa mafano onse onyansa mʼdziko lonse limene linali la Aisraeli ndipo anawuza onse amene anali mu Israeli kutumikira Yehova Mulungu wawo. Pa masiku onse a moyo wake, iye sanaleke kutsatira Yehova, Mulungu wa makolo awo.

Enti Yosia yiyii ahoni a ɛyɛ akyiwade no fii Israel asase no nyinaa so. Na ɔhyɛɛ sɛ obiara nsom Awurade, wɔn Nyankopɔn. Na ne nkwanna a aka no mu no nyinaa, wɔannan wɔn akyi ankyerɛ Awurade wɔn agyanom Nyankopɔn no da.
