< Kronika 2 24 >
1 Yoas xɔ ƒe adre esi wòzu fia eye wòɖu fia ƒe blaene le Yerusalem. Dadaa ŋkɔe nye Zibia tso Beerseba.
UJowashi wayeleminyaka eyisikhombisa esiba yinkosi, wabusa iminyaka engamatshumi amane eJerusalema. Lebizo likanina lalinguZibiya weBherishebha.
2 Yoas wɔ nu si nyo le Yehowa ŋkume, le nunɔla Yehoiada ƒe agbemeŋkekewo katã me.
UJowashi wasesenza okuqondileyo emehlweni eNkosi insuku zonke zikaJehoyada umpristi.
3 Yehoiada ɖe srɔ̃ eve nɛ, ame siwo dzi viŋutsuwo kple vinyɔnuwo nɛ.
UJehoyada wasemthathela abafazi ababili; wasezala amadodana lamadodakazi.
4 Emegbe la, Yoas ɖo ta me be yeadzra gbedoxɔ la ɖo.
Kwasekusithi emva kwalokho kwaba senhliziyweni kaJowashi ukuvuselela indlu yeNkosi.
5 Eyɔ nunɔlawo kple Levitɔwo ƒo ƒu eye wògblɔ na wo be, “Miyi Yuda duwo katã me eye miadzɔ xɔtuga le Israelviwo si ale be míate ŋu adzra gbedoxɔ la ɖo. Mitso ɖe eŋu kaba! Migahe ɖe megbe o!” Ke Levitɔwo metso ɖe eŋu enumake o.
Wasebuthanisa abapristi lamaLevi, wathi kibo: Phumani liye emizini yakoJuda, liqoqe kuIsrayeli wonke imali yokulungisa indlu kaNkulunkulu wenu umnyaka ngomnyaka; lina-ke, luphangiseleni udaba. Kodwa amaLevi kawaphangisanga.
6 Ale fia la yɔ Yehoiada, nunɔlagã la eye wòbiae be, “Nu ka ta mèzi Levitɔwo dzi be woaɖaxɔ ga tso Yuda duwo me kple Yerusalem hena gbedoxɔ la dzadzraɖo o? Ele be míakpɔ egbɔ be wowɔ se si Mose, Yehowa ƒe dɔla, de la dzi ale be míate ŋu adzra gbedoxɔ la ɖo.”
Inkosi yasibiza uJehoyada inhloko, yathi kuye: Kungani ungabizanga kumaLevi ukuthi alethe esusa koJuda laseJerusalema umthelo kaMozisi inceku yeNkosi, lowebandla lakoIsrayeli okwethente lobufakazi?
7 Azɔ la, nyɔnu vɔ̃ɖi ma, Atalia ƒe viŋutsuwo gbã ʋɔa ge ɖe Mawu ƒe gbedoxɔ la me eye wowɔ nu kɔkɔeawo gɔ̃ hã ŋu dɔ na Baalwo.
Ngoba amadodana kaAthaliya okhohlakeleyo afohlela endlini kaNkulunkulu, futhi-ke ayesebenzisele oBhali zonke izinto ezingcwele zendlu yeNkosi.
8 Le fia la ƒe gbeɖeɖe nu la, wokpa tsitrenuɖaka aɖe da ɖe gota le Yehowa ƒe gbedoxɔ la ƒe agbo nu.
Inkosi yasilaya, asesenza ibhokisi elilodwa, alibeka esangweni lendlu kaJehova phandle.
9 Woɖe gbeƒã le Yuda kple Yerusalem be woatsɔ adzɔga si Mawu ƒe dɔla Mose bia tso Israel si le gbea dzi la vɛ na Yehowa.
Asesenza isimemezelo koJuda laseJerusalema ukuthi balethe eNkosini umthelo kaMozisi inceku kaNkulunkulu owabekwa phezu kukaIsrayeli enkangala.
10 Dɔnunɔlawo katã kple ameawo katã tsɔ woƒe nudzɔdzɔwo vɛ kple dzidzɔ eye woda wo ɖe nudzɔɖaka la me va se ɖe esime wòyɔ banaa.
Zonke iziphathamandla labo bonke abantu basebethokoza, baletha baphosela ebhokisini baze baqeda.
11 Nenye be Levitɔwo tsɔ gaɖaka la vɛ na fia la ƒe dɔdzikpɔlawo eye wokpɔ be ga geɖe le eme la, fiasãmegbalẽŋlɔla la kple nunɔlagã ƒe dɔdzikpɔla va trɔa ga la le aɖaka la me eye wotsɔa aɖaka ƒuƒlu la ɖadana ɖe enɔƒe. Wowɔa esia enuenu eye wokpɔ ga home gã aɖe.
Kwakusithi-ke ngesikhathi eletha ibhokisi kumhloli wenkosi ngesandla samaLevi, lalapho ebona ukuthi kulemali enengi, umabhalane wenkosi lenduna yompristi oyinhloko beze balithulule ibhokisi, balithathe balibuyisele endaweni yalo. Benza njalo-ke insuku ngensuku, baqoqa imali ngobunengi.
12 Fia la kple Yehoiada tsɔa ga la naa ŋutsu siwo wɔa dɔ siwo hiã le Yehowa ƒe gbedoxɔ la ŋu. Wotsɔa gliɖolawo kple atikpalawo be woaɖɔ Yehowa ƒe gbedoxɔ la ɖo. Nenema kee wotsɔa gayibɔ kple akɔbli dɔwɔlawo be woaɖɔ gbedoxɔ la ɖo.
Inkosi loJehoyada basebeyinika abenzi bomsebenzi wenkonzo wendlu kaJehova, baqhatsha abakha ngamatshe lababazi ukuvuselela indlu kaJehova, njalo labakhandi bensimbi lethusi ukuqinisa indlu kaJehova.
13 Ŋutsu siwo nɔ dɔa nu la wɔ dɔ kple kutrikuku eye ɖɔɖɔɖodɔ la yi edzi nyuie le woƒe kpɔkplɔ te. Wogbugbɔ Mawu ƒe gbedoxɔ la tu, heglãe ɖe eƒe tata gbãtɔ nu.
Ngakho abenzi bomsebenzi basebenza, kwaze kwathi ukuvuselelwa komsebenzi kwaqhubeka ngesandla sabo, bayimisa indlu kaNkulunkulu ngesilinganiso sayo, bayiqinisa.
14 Esi wowu dɔ la nu la, wotsɔ ga si susɔ la vɛ na fia la kple Yehoiada eye wotsɔe wɔ Yehowa ƒe gbedoxɔmenu siawoe: subɔsubɔnuwo, numevɔsanuwo kple agbawo kple klosalo kple sikanuwo. Zi ale si Yehoiada nɔ agbe la, numevɔsa yi edzi ɣe sia ɣi le Yehowa ƒe gbedoxɔ me.
Kwathi sebeqedile baletha imali eseleyo phambi kwenkosi loJehoyada, abenza ngayo izitsha zendlu kaJehova, izitsha zenkonzo lezokunikela, lezinkezo, lezitsha zegolide lezesiliva. Basebenikela njalonjalo iminikelo yokutshiswa endlini kaJehova zonke izinsuku zikaJehoyada.
15 Yehoiada tsi ŋutɔ, exɔ ƒe alafa ɖeka blaetɔ̃ hafi ku.
UJehoyada waseguga wenela ngezinsuku, wafa; wayeleminyaka elikhulu lamatshumi amathathu ekufeni kwakhe.
16 Woɖii ɖe David ƒe Du la me ɖe fiawo dome elabena ewɔ nu nyui geɖewo na Israel kple Mawu kple gbedoxɔ la.
Basebemngcwabela emzini kaDavida lamakhosi, ngoba wayenze okulungileyo koIsrayeli lakuNkulunkulu lendlu yakhe.
17 Le Yehoiada ƒe ku megbe la, Israel kplɔlawo va de ta agu na fia la eye fia la ɖo to wo.
Emva kokufa kukaJehoyada iziphathamandla zakoJuda zasezisiza zakhothama phambi kwenkosi; khona inkosi yazilalela.
18 Woɖe asi le Yehowa, wo fofowo ƒe Mawu, ƒe gbedoxɔ la ŋu eye wosubɔ aƒeliwo kple legbawo. Le woƒe nu vɔ̃ wɔwɔ ta la, Mawu ƒe dɔmedzoe bi ɖi Yuda kple Yerusalem ŋu.
Basebeyitshiya indlu yeNkosi, uNkulunkulu waboyise, bakhonza izixuku lezithombe. Kwasekusehlela ulaka phezu kukaJuda leJerusalema ngenxa yalelicala labo.
19 Mawu ɖo nyagblɔɖilawo ɖa be woana ameawo natrɔ va ye gbɔ gake ameawo meɖo to wo o.
Kodwa yathuma abaprofethi phakathi kwabo ukubabuyisela eNkosini; basebefakaza bemelene labo, kodwa kababekanga indlebe.
20 Azɔ Mawu ƒe Gbɔgbɔ va dze Zekaria, Yehoiada ƒe vi, dzi. Eyɔ ameawo katã ƒo ƒu. Etsi tsitre ɖe kplɔ̃ aɖe dzi le ameawo ŋgɔ hegblɔ na wo be, “Mawu di be yeanya nu si na miele yeƒe sewo dzi wɔm o. Nu sia tae naneke megadzea edzi na mi o. Miegble Yehowa ɖi eya ta eya hã gble mi ɖi azɔ.”
UMoya kaNkulunkulu wasesembesa uZekhariya indodana kaJehoyada umpristi owema ngaphezu kwabantu, wathi kibo: Utsho njalo uNkulunkulu: Kungani liseqa imilayo yeNkosi ukuze lingaphumeleli? Ngoba liyitshiyile iNkosi, layo ilitshiyile.
21 Tete wobla ɖe eŋu eye woƒu kpee le Yehowa ƒe gbedoxɔ ƒe xɔxɔnu, le fia la ƒe sedede nu.
Basebemenzela ugobe, bamkhanda ngamatshe ngomlayo wenkosi, egumeni lendlu kaJehova.
22 Fia Yoas meɖo ŋku dɔmenyo Zaxarya fofo, Yehoiada, wɔ nɛ la dzi o eye wòwu Via ŋutsu, Zaxarya, ame si gblɔ esi wòmlɔ anyi nɔ kukum be, “Yehowa, kpɔ nu si wowɔ la ɖa eye nàɖo eteƒe na wo.”
Ngokunjalo uJowashi inkosi kawukhumbulanga umusa uJehoyada uyise ayemenzele wona, kodwa wabulala indodana yakhe. Lalapho esifa wathi: INkosi kayibone ikufune.
23 Le ɣleti aɖewo megbe la, Siria ƒe aʋakɔ va ɖu Yuda kple Yerusalem dzi eye wowu dukɔa kplɔlawo katã. Woha afunyinu geɖewo ɖo ɖe woƒe fia le Damasko.
Kwasekusithi ekuthwaseni komnyaka ibutho leSiriya lenyuka lamelana laye; basebefika koJuda leJerusalema, babhubhisa zonke iziphathamandla zabantu ebantwini, bathumela yonke impango yazo enkosini yeDamaseko.
24 Yehowae na Siria ƒe aʋakɔ sue la ɖu Yuda ƒe aʋakɔ gã la dzi elabena Yudatɔwo gble Yehowa, wo fofowo ƒe Mawu la ɖi. Ale Mawu he to na Yoas.
Lanxa ibutho lamaSiriya leza lilamadoda amalutshwana, kanti iNkosi yanikela esandleni sawo ibutho elikhulu kakhulu, ngoba babeyitshiyile iNkosi uNkulunkulu waboyise. Ngalokho benza izigwebo kuJowashi.
25 Esi Siria ƒe aʋakɔ la dzo la, Yoas tsi aba dzi le abi gã si wòxɔ la ta. Yoas ŋutɔ ŋumewo ɖo ta me be yewoawui le esi wòwu nunɔla Yehoiada ƒe vi, Zaxarya ta. Ale wowui le eƒe aba dzi eye woɖii ɖe David Ƒe Du la me gake menye ɖe fiawo ɖiƒe o.
Kwathi sebesukile kuye, ngoba bemtshiye esemikhuhlaneni emikhulu, inceku zakhe zamenzela ugobe ngenxa yegazi lamadodana kaJehoyada umpristi, zambulalela embhedeni wakhe, wasesifa; basebemngcwabela emzini kaDavida, kodwa kabamngcwabanga emangcwabeni amakhosi.
26 Ame siwo wɔ babla ɖe eŋu la woe nye Zabad, ame si dadae nye Simeat, Amon ƒe viwo dometɔ ɖeka kple Yehozabad, Simirit, nyɔnu aɖe si tso Moab.
Lalaba yibo ababemenzele ugobe: OZabadi indodana kaShimeyathi umAmonikazi, loJehozabadi indodana kaShimirithi umMowabikazi.
27 Woŋlɔ nu tso Yoas ƒe viŋutsuwo, fiƒode siwo woli kɔe ɖe Yoas dzi kple ale si wogakɔ gbedoxɔ la ŋuti la ɖe Fiawo ƒe ŋutinyawo me. Esi Yoas ku la, via Amazia ɖu fia ɖe eteƒe.
Mayelana lamadodana akhe, lobukhulu bomthwalo phezu kwakhe, lokumiswa kwendlu kaNkulunkulu, khangela, kubhaliwe endabeni yogwalo lwamakhosi. UAmaziya indodana yakhe wasesiba yinkosi esikhundleni sakhe.
