< Kronika 2 23 >
1 Le ƒe adrelia me la, Yehoiada ɖe eƒe ŋusẽ fia. Ebla nu kple ame alafawo ƒe aʋafia siawo: Azaria, Yeroham ƒe vi, Ismael, Yehohanan ƒe vi, Azaria, Obed ƒe vi kple Maaseya, Adaya ƒe vi kple Elisafat, Zikri ƒe vi.
Njalo ngomnyaka wesikhombisa uJehoyada waziqinisa, wathatha induna zamakhulu ndawonye laye esivumelwaneni, oAzariya indodana kaJerohamu, loIshmayeli indodana kaJehohanani, loAzariya indodana kaObedi, loMahaseya indodana kaAdaya, loElishafati indodana kaZikiri.
2 Wotsa le Yudanyigba blibo la dzi eye woƒo Levitɔwo kple Israelviwo ƒe ƒometatɔwo nu ƒu tso duawo katã me. Esi wova ɖo Yerusalem la,
Basebebhodabhoda koJuda, baqoqa amaLevi kuyo yonke imizi yakoJuda lenhloko zaboyise bakoIsrayeli, beza eJerusalema.
3 ameha blibo la bla nu kple fia la le Mawu ƒe gbedoxɔ la me. Yehoiada gblɔ na wo be, “Fiaviŋutsu la aɖu fia abe ale si Yehowa do ŋugbe tso David ƒe dzidzimeviwo ŋu ene.
Ibandla lonke laselisenza isivumelwano lenkosi endlini kaNkulunkulu. Wasesithi kubo: Khangelani indodana yenkosi izabusa njengokutsho kweNkosi mayelana lamadodana kaDavida.
4 Azɔ la, nu si míawɔ enye si. Mi nunɔlawo kple Levitɔwo ƒe mama etɔ̃lia ƒe gbãtɔ me tɔwo, ame siwo awɔ dɔ le Dzudzɔgbe la dzi la, miaƒe ŋkuwo anɔ ʋɔtruawo ŋu,
Yilolu ulutho elizalwenza; ingxenye yesithathu yenu elingena ngesabatha, kubapristi lakumaLevi, bazakuba ngabalindi bemibundu;
5 mama evelia me tɔwo adzɔ fiasã la ŋu eye mama etɔ̃lia me tɔwo adzɔ Gɔmeɖokpegbo la ŋu. Ame bubuawo katã anɔ Yehowa ƒe gbedoxɔ la ƒe xɔxɔnuwo.
lengxenye yesithathu izakuba sendlini yenkosi, lengxenye yesithathu esangweni lesisekelo; labo bonke abantu bazakuba semagumeni endlu kaJehova.
6 Ame aɖeke mage ɖe Yehowa ƒe gbedoxɔ la me o negbe nunɔlawo kple Levitɔ siwo anɔ dɔ wɔm ko. Woawo ya ate ŋu age ɖe eme elabena wokɔ wo ŋu ke ele na ame bubuawo be woadzɔ teƒe siwo Yehowa de asi na wo la ŋu.
Kodwa kakungangeni muntu endlini yeNkosi ngaphandle kwabapristi lalabo abasebenzayo bamaLevi; bona bazangena ngoba bengcwele, kodwa bonke abantu bazagcina umlindo weNkosi.
7 Mi Levitɔwo ƒe viwo, mitsɔ aʋawɔnuwo ɖe asi, midzɔ fia la ŋu eye miawu ame sia ame si adze mi age ɖe gbedoxɔ la me. Minɔ fia la ŋu kplikplikpli!”
LamaLevi azaphahla inkosi inhlangothi zonke, ngulowo lalowo elezikhali zakhe esandleni sakhe; lalowo ongenayo endlini uzabulawa. Kodwa yibani lenkosi ekungeneni kwayo lekuphumeni kwayo.
8 Levitɔwo ƒe viwo kple Yuda blibo la wɔ nunɔla Yehoiada ƒe ɖoɖoawo dzi. Aʋafiawo kplɔ ame siwo manɔ dɔ me le Dzudzɔgbe la dzi o kple esiwo anɔ dɔ me gbe ma gbe la siaa yi na nunɔla Yehoiada elabena nunɔlagã Yehoiada, meɖe mɔ na wo wodzo yi aƒe me o.
Ngakho amaLevi loJuda wonke benza njengakho konke uJehoyada umpristi ayekulayile. Zasezithatha, yileyo laleyo amadoda ayo angena ngesabatha kanye lalawo aphuma ngesabatha; ngoba uJehoyada umpristi wayengazikhululanga izigaba.
9 Yehoiada na akplɔwo kple akpoxɔnuwo asrafomegãwo siwo le ame alafawo nu. Aʋawɔnu siawo nye Fia David tɔwo tsã eye wodzra wo ɖo ɖe gbedoxɔ la me.
UJehoyada umpristi wasenika izinduna zamakhulu imikhonto lezihlangu ezinkulu lezihlangu ezazingezenkosi uDavida ezazisendlini kaNkulunkulu.
10 Asrafomegã siawo tsɔ woƒe aʋawɔnuwo ɖe asi eye wonɔ tsitre ƒo xlã fia la, le vɔsamlekpui la ŋu le gbedoxɔ la me. Woɖe to ɖee tso gbedoxɔ la ƒe dziehe yi anyiehe.
Wasemisa bonke abantu, langulowo elesikhali sakhe esandleni sakhe, kusukela kucele langakwesokunene lendlu kusiya kucele langakwesokhohlo lendlu, ngaselathini langasendlini, enkosini inhlangothi zonke.
11 Yehoiada kple via ŋutsuviwo kplɔ fiavi ŋutsuvi la do goe, ɖɔ fiakuku nɛ, tsɔ nubabla ƒe seawo de asi nɛ eye wòɖoe fiae. Esi ami nɛ, ame sia ame ƒo asikpe kplokplokplo eye wodo ɣli sesĩe be, “Fia nenɔ agbe tegbee!”
Basebekhuphela phandle indodana yenkosi, bayithwalisa umqhele, bayipha ubufakazi, bayibeka yaba yinkosi. UJehoyada lamadodana akhe basebeyigcoba bathi: Kayiphile inkosi!
12 Esi Atalia se se howɔwɔ kple ɣli si amewo tsɔ nɔ fia la kafum la, eyi ɖe ame siwo le Yehowa ƒe gbedoxɔ me la gbɔ.
UAthaliya esizwa ilizwi labantu begijima bedumisa inkosi, weza ebantwini endlini kaJehova.
13 Etsa ŋku eye wòkpɔ fia la wòtsi tsitre ɖe eƒe sɔti gbɔ le xɔa ƒe mɔnu. Dɔdzikpɔlawo kple kpẽkulawo nɔ fia la gbɔ eye anyigba la dzi tɔwo katã nɔ aseye tsom, henɔ woƒe kpẽawo kum eye hadzilawo kple woƒe haƒonuwo nɔ hawo dom ɖa. Tete Atalia dze eƒe awuwo eye wòdo ɣli be, “Nugbeɖoɖoe! Nugbeɖoɖoe!”
Wasebona, khangela-ke, inkosi yayimi ngasensikeni yayo engenelweni, lezinduna, lezimpondo ngasenkosini; labo bonke abantu belizwe bathokoza bavuthela izimpondo, labahlabeleli belezinto zokuhlabelela labafundisa ukudumisa. UAthaliya wasedabula izigqoko zakhe, wathi: Umvukela! Umvukela!
14 Nunɔla Yehoiada dɔ ame siwo nɔ asrafo alafa ɖekawo nu, ame siwo nɔ aʋawɔlawo dzi kpɔm la ɖa eye wògblɔ na wo be, “Mikplɔe to ameawo dome vɛ eye miawu ame sia ame si adze eyome.” Elabena nunɔla la gblɔ do ŋgɔ be, “Migawui ɖe Yehowa ƒe gbedoxɔ me o.”
UJehoyada umpristi wasekhupha izinduna zamakhulu ezazibekwe phezu kwebutho, wathi kuzo: Mkhupheni limsuse phakathi kwamaviyo; lomlandelayo uzabulawa ngenkemba. Ngoba umpristi wayethe: Lingambulaleli endlini kaJehova.
15 Ale wolée le Sɔgbo la nu le fiasã la me eye wowui le afi ma.
Zasezimbamba ngezandla, wasesiya engenelweni lesango lamabhiza endlini yenkosi, zambulalela khona.
16 Ke Yehoiada na Fia Yoas kple ameawo kpe ɖe eŋu eye wobla nu be yewoanye Yehowa ƒe amewo.
UJehoyada wasesenza isivumelwano phakathi kwakhe labantu bonke lenkosi ukuthi babe ngabantu bakaJehova.
17 Wo katã woyi Baal ƒe gbedoxɔ me eye wogbãe. Wogbã vɔsamlekpui la kple legbawo le afi ma eye wowu Matan, Baal ƒe nunɔla le vɔsamlekpui la ŋgɔ.
Bonke abantu basebesiya endlini kaBhali, bayidiliza, baphahlaza lamalathi akhe lezithombe zakhe, babulala uMathani umpristi kaBhali phambi kwamalathi.
18 Azɔ la, Yehoiada na Levitɔwo zu dzɔlawo eye wosa numevɔ na Yehowa le Mose ƒe se la nu. Ede dɔwo asi na Levitɔwo abe ale si Fia David wɔ ene tututu. Wodzia ha kple dzidzɔ ne wole woƒe dɔwo wɔm.
UJehoyada wasemisa izikhundla zendlu yeNkosi ngesandla sabapristi, amaLevi, uDavida ayebahlukanisile endlini yeNkosi ukunikela iminikelo yokutshiswa yeNkosi, njengokubhaliweyo emlayweni kaMozisi, ngenjabulo langokuhlabela, njengokumisa kukaDavida.
19 Gbedoxɔ la ƒe agbowo nu dzɔlawo meɖea mɔ be, nu siwo ŋu womekɔ o kple ame siwo se meɖe mɔ na o la, nage ɖe gbedoxɔ la me o.
Wasebeka abalindi bamasango emasangweni endlu yeNkosi ukuze kungangeni muntu ongcolileyo ngolutho loba luphi.
20 Eye wòɖe ame alafawo ƒe amegãwo, blafowo kple fiaŋusrafowo kpakple dukɔ hahoo la katã, eye wokplɔ fia la tso Yehowa ƒe gbedoxɔ la me, heto Dzigbegbo la me yi fiasã la me eye wotsɔ fia la ɖo fiazikpui la dzi.
Wasethatha izinduna zamakhulu leziphathamandla lababusi phakathi kwabantu labo bonke abantu belizwe, wayehlisa inkosi isuka endlini kaJehova; basebengena endlini yenkosi ngaphakathi kwesango elingaphezulu, bayihlalisa inkosi esihlalweni sobukhosi sombuso.
21 Amewo katã kpɔ dzidzɔ le dukɔ la me eye ŋutifafa va dua me azɔ elabena wowu Atalia kple yi.
Labo bonke abantu belizwe bathokoza; lomuzi waba lokuthula sebembulele uAthaliya ngenkemba.
