UHezekhiya wayeleminyaka engamatshumi amabili lemihlanu ubudala ethatha ubukhosi, njalo wabusa eJerusalema okweminyaka engamatshumi amabili lasificamunwemunye. Ibizo likanina lalingu-Abhija indodakazi kaZakhariya.
2 Eɖu fia nyuie le Mawu ƒe ŋkume abe fofoa, David ene.
Wenza okulungileyo phambi kukaThixo, njengalokho okwakwenziwe nguyise uDavida.
3 Le eƒe fiaɖuɖu ƒe ƒe gbãtɔ ƒe ɣleti gbãtɔ me la, eʋu gbedoxɔ la eye wòdzra ʋɔtruawo ɖo.
Ngenyanga yakuqala ngomnyaka wakuqala wokubusa kwakhe, wavula iminyango yethempeli likaThixo wayilungisa.
4 Eyɔ nunɔlawo kple Levitɔwo ƒo ƒu wo ɖe yaxɔƒe si nɔ ɣedzeƒe lɔƒo
Wamema abaphristi kanye labaLevi, wababuthanisa egumeni eliseceleni langempumalanga
5 eye wògblɔ na wo be, “Miɖo tom, Levitɔwo! Mikɔ mia ɖokuiwo ŋu fifia eye miakɔ Yehowa, mia fofowo ƒe Mawu la ƒe gbedoxɔ la hã ŋu. Miɖe gudoamenuwo katã ɖa le Kɔkɔeƒe la.
wathi: “Lalelani kimi, lina baLevi! Zihlambululeni khathesi njalo lihlambulule lethempeli likaThixo, uNkulunkulu waboyihlo. Lisuse amanyala endaweni engcwele.
6 Mía fofowo wɔ nu vɔ̃ gã aɖe le Yehowa, mía Mawu, ŋkume. Wogble Yehowa kple eƒe gbedoxɔ la ɖi eye wotrɔ megbe dee.
Obaba babengathembekanga; benza okubi emehlweni kaThixo uNkulunkulu wethu bamdela. Indawo kaThixo bayincitsha ubuso bakhangela eceleni njalo bamfulathela uThixo.
7 Wotu ʋɔawo goŋgoŋgoŋ, wotsi akaɖi si nɔa bibim la eye womegadoa dzudzɔ alo sãa numevɔ hã o
Bavala njalo izivalo zomphempe bacitsha izibane. Abazange batshise impepha njalo kabalethanga iminikelo yokutshiswa endaweni engcwele kaNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli.
8 eya ta Yehowa do dɔmedzoe ɖe Yuda kple Yerusalem ŋu. Ena míezu ŋɔdzidonamenuwo kple alɔmeɖenuwo abe ale si miele ekpɔm egbea ene.
Ngakho ulaka lukaThixo selwehlele phezu kwabakoJuda laphezu kwabaseJerusalema; uThixo usebenze besabeka, bathuthumelisa baba yinto yokweyiswa, njengoba lizibonela ngawenu amehlo.
9 Wowu mía fofowo le aʋa me eye woɖe aboyo mía vinyɔnuwo kple mía srɔ̃wo le esia ta.
Lokhu sekubangele ukubulawa kwabo ngenkemba njalo lokuthi amadodana lamadodakazi labomkethu babe sekuthunjweni.
10 “Azɔ la, medi be mawɔ nubabla kple Yehowa, Israel ƒe Mawu la ale be wòaɖe eƒe dɔmedzoe helihelĩ la ɖa le mía dzi.
Khathesi ngifuna ukwenza isivumelwano loThixo, uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli, ukuze ulaka lwakhe oluvuthayo lusidedele.
11 Vinyewo, migagbe miaƒe dɔdeasiwo wɔwɔ azɔ o elabena miawoe Yehowa tia be miasubɔ ye eye miado dzudzɔ na ye.”
Madodana ami, kalingabi ngabangananziyo ngoba uThixo uselikhethile lina ukuma phambi kwakhe limkhonze, limsebenzele lokutshisa impepha.”
12 Levitɔwo ƒe vi siwo nɔ afi ma hena subɔsubɔdɔ la woe nye: ame siwo tso Kohat ƒe hlɔ̃ me: Mahat, Amasai ƒe vi; Yoel, Azaria ƒe vi. Ame siwo tso Merari ƒe hlɔ̃ me: Kis, Abdi ƒe vi kple Azaria, Yehalelel ƒe vi. Ame siwo tso Gerson ƒe hlɔ̃ me: Yoas, Zima ƒe vi kple Eden, Yoa ƒe vi.
Ngakho laba abaLevi bahle baqalisa umsebenzi: KwabakaKhohathi, uMahathi indodana ka-Amasayi loJoweli indodana ka-Azariya; kwabakaMerari, uKhishi indodana ka-Abhidi lo-Azariya indodana kaJehaleleli; kwabakaGeshoni, uJowa indodana kaZima lo-Edeni indodana kaJowa;
13 Ame siwo tso Elizafan ƒe hlɔ̃ me: Yeiel kple Simri. Ame siwo tso Asaf ƒe hlɔ̃ me: Zekaria kple Matania.
kwabosendo luka-Elizafani, kunguShimiri loJeyiyeli; kwabosendo luka-Asafi, kunguZakhariya loMathaniya;
14 Ame siwo tso Heman ƒe hlɔ̃ me: Yehiel kple Simei. Ame siwo tso Yedutun ƒe hlɔ̃ me. Semaya kple Uziel.
kwabosendo lukaHemani, kunguJehiyeli loShimeyi; kwabosendo lukaJeduthuni, kunguShemaya lo-Uziyeli.
15 Woawo hã yɔ Levitɔ bubuawo, wokɔ wo ɖokuiwo ŋuti eye wode asi gbedoxɔ la dzadzraɖo kple eŋu kɔkɔ me, abe ale si fia la gblɔ Yehowa ƒe nya na wo eye wòɖe gbe na wo be woawɔ ene.
Bathi sebebuthanise abafowabo bazihlambulula bona, bangena ukuyahlambulula ithempeli likaThixo, njengokuqondisa kwenkosi, eyayilandela ilizwi likaThixo.
16 Nunɔlawo dzra xɔ emetɔ le gbedoxɔ la me ɖo eye wolɔ ʋuʋudedi kple nu gbegblẽwo katã tso afi ma va kɔ ɖe xɔxɔnu. Levitɔwo lɔ nu siawo yi Kidron tɔʋu la me.
Abaphristi bangena endaweni engcwele kaThixo ukuba bayeyihlambulula. Konke okwakungcolile ethempelini likaThixo bakukhuphela egumeni lethempeli likaThixo. AbaLevi bakuthwala baya lakho eSigodini saseKhidironi.
17 Wodze nu siawo katã wɔwɔ gɔme le Ɣleti gbatɔ ƒe ŋkeke gbãtɔ dzi eye woɖo xɔxɔnu egodotɔ le ŋkeke enyilia dzi. Wowɔ dɔ le afi sia hã ŋkeke enyi; ale wotsɔ ŋkeke wuiade wɔ dɔ blibo lae.
Baqalisa ukwahlukanisela ngosuku lwakuqala lwenyanga yakuqala, kwathi ngosuku lwesificaminwembili lwenyanga bafika emphempeni kaThixo. Ngezinsuku ezilandelayo ezificaminwembili bangcwelisa ithempeli likaThixo uqobo, baze baqeda ngosuku lwetshumi lesithupha lwenyanga yakuqala.
18 Le esia megbe la, wotrɔ yi Fia Hezekia gbɔ le eƒe fiasã la me eye wogblɔ nɛ be, “Míewu gbedoxɔ la, numevɔsamlekpui la, Ŋkumeɖobolo ƒe kplɔ̃ la kple eŋunuwo ŋu kɔkɔ nu.
Basebengena enkosini uHezekhiya ukuba bayembikela bathi: “Sesilihlambulule lonke ithempeli likaThixo, le-alithari lomnikelo wokutshiswa lezitsha zalo zonke, kanye lethala lokwendlalela isinkwa esingcwelisiweyo kanye lazozonke impahla zakhona.
19 Gawu la, míefɔ gbedoxɔmenu siwo Fia Ahaz tsɔ ƒu gbe esi wòtu gbedoxɔ la eye míekɔ woawo hã ŋuti. Míetsɔ wo da ɖe Yehowa ƒe vɔsamlekpui la gbɔ.”
Sesilungise sangcwelisa zonke izitsha ezasuswa yinkosi u-Ahazi ngokungathembeki kwakhe eseseyinkosi. Khathesi seziphambi kwe-alithari likaThixo.”
20 Esi ŋu ke ŋdi kanyaa la, Fia Hezekia yi Yehowa ƒe gbedoxɔ la me kple dumegãwo.
Ekuseni ngosuku olulandelayo inkosi uHezekhiya wabuthanisa izikhulu zedolobho ndawonye wasesiya ethempelini likaThixo.
21 Wotsɔ nyitsu adre, agbo adre, alẽvi adre kple gbɔ̃tsu adre sa nu vɔ̃ ŋuti vɔsa ɖe fiaɖuƒe, Kɔkɔeƒe la kple Yuda ta. Egblɔ na nunɔlaawo, Aron ƒe dzidzimeviwo, be woatsɔ wo asa vɔe le Yehowa ƒe vɔsamlekpui la dzi.
Baletha inkunzi eziyisikhombisa, lenqama eziyisikhombisa, lamazinyane ezimvu amaduna ayisikhombisa kanye lempongo eziyisikhombisa kungumnikelo wesono sombuso, lesendlu yokukhonzela kanye lesikaJuda. Inkosi yalaya abaphristi, abenzalo ka-Aroni, ukunikela ngalokho e-alithareni likaThixo.
22 Ale wowu nyitsuawo eye nunɔlaawo tsɔ ʋua hlẽ ɖe vɔsamlekpui la ŋu. Emegbe wowu agboawo eye wotsɔ woƒe ʋu hlẽ ɖe vɔsamlekpui la ŋu. Nenema ke wowu alẽviawo eye wotsɔ eƒe ʋu hlẽ ɖe vɔsamlekpui la ŋu.
Ngakho babulala inkunzi, abaphristi bathatha igazi bachela ngalo e-alithareni; kwalandela inqama abazibulala bachela igazi lazo e-alithareni; basebebulala amazinyane ezimvu bachela igazi lawo e-alithareni.
23 Wokplɔ gbɔ̃tsu siwo wotsɔ vɛ na nu vɔ̃ ŋuti vɔsa la va fia la kple ameha la ŋkume eye woda woƒe asiwo ɖe wo dzi.
Impongo zomnikelo wesono zalethwa phambi kwenkosi laphambi kwebandla, babeka izandla zabo phezu kwazo.
24 Le esia megbe la, nunɔlaawo wu gbɔ̃tsuawo eye wotsɔ woƒe ʋu sa nu vɔ̃ ŋuti vɔsa le vɔsamlekpui la dzi be wòalé avu ɖe Israel blibo la nu abe ale si fia la ɖoe ene elabena fia la ɖo be woasa numevɔ la kple nu vɔ̃ ŋuti vɔsa la ɖe dukɔ blibo la nu.
Abaphristi basebebulala impongo baletha igazi lazo e-alithareni kungumnikelo wesono ukuze kwenzelwe wonke u-Israyeli indlela yokubuyisana, ngoba inkosi yayilaye ukuthi kube lomnikelo wokutshiswa lomnikelo wesono kunikelelwa wonke u-Israyeli.
25 Eda Levitɔwo ɖe Yehowa ƒe gbedoxɔ la me kple gakogoewo, saŋkuwo kple kasaŋkuwo abe ale si David kple Gad, fia la ƒe nukpɔla kple Natan, nyagblɔɖila la ɖoe da ɖi la ene. Yehowae de se sia to eƒe nyagblɔɖilawo dzi.
AbaLevi yababeka phakathi kwethempeli likaThixo belezigubhu, lamachacho lemihubhe njengalokho okwakumiswe nguDavida loGadi umboni wenkosi loNathani umphrofethi; lokhu kwakungumlayo kaThixo oweza ngabaphrofethi bakhe.
26 Ale Levitɔwo nɔ klalo kple David ƒe haƒonuwo eye nunɔlaawo nɔ klalo kple woƒe kpẽwo.
Ngakho abaLevi balinda belamachacho kaDavida, abaphristi belamacilongo.
27 Hezekia ɖe gbe be woawɔ numevɔsa la le vɔsamlekpui la dzi. Esi wodze vɔsasa la gɔme la, hadzidzi na Yehowa hã dze egɔme eye kpẽkuku kple hadzidziŋunu siwo Israel fia David wɔ la kplɔe ɖo.
UHezekhiya wakhupha isiqondiso sokuba kwenziwe umnikelo wokutshiswa e-alithareni. Kuthe kuqalisa umnikelo, ukuhlabelela uThixo lakho kwaqalisa, kwahamba kanyekanye lamacilongo kanye lamachacho kaDavida inkosi yako-Israyeli.
28 Esime hadzilawo nɔ ha dzim eye wonɔ kpẽawo kum la, ameha blibo la de ta agu hesubɔ. Esiawo yi edzi va se ɖe esime numevɔsa la wu enu.
Ibandla lonke lakhothama lakhonza, abahlabeleli behlabela labamacilongo bewavuthela. Konke lokhu kwaqhubeka kwaze kwaphela umnikelo wokutshiswa.
29 Esi vɔsawo wu enu la, fia la kple ame siwo katã nɔ teƒea kplii la dze klo hesubɔ.
Ngemva kokuphela kweminikelo inkosi labo bonke ababekhona baguqa bakhonza.
30 Fia Hezekia kple eŋumewo ɖe gbe na Levitɔwo be woakafu Yehowa kple David kple nukpɔla Asaf ƒe hagbewo. Ale wodzi kafukafuhawo kple dzidzɔ eye wode woƒe tawo agu hesubɔ.
Inkosi uHezekhiya lezikhulu zayo yatshela abaLevi ukuba badumise uThixo ngamazwi kaDavida kanye laka-Asafi umboni. Ngakho badumisa ngokuhlabelela ngenjabulo bakhothamisa amakhanda abo bakhonza.
31 Hezekia gblɔ be, “Míewu ŋutikɔkɔ ƒe kɔnuwo nu, azɔ la, mitsɔ miaƒe nunanawo kple akpedavɔsanuwo vɛ.” Ale ameawo tso dukɔ la ƒe akpa ɖe sia ɖe tsɔ woƒe nunanawo kple akpedavɔsanuwo vɛ eye ame siwo lɔ̃ la, tsɔ numevɔsanuwo hã vɛ.
UHezekhiya wasesithi, “Selizinikele kuThixo khathesi. Wozani lilethe imihlatshelo leminikelo yokubonga ethempelini likaThixo.” Ngakho ibandla laletha imihlatshelo leminikelo, yokubonga, njalo ababelenhliziyo ezivumayo baletha iminikelo yokutshiswa.
32 Nu siwo ameha la tsɔ vɛ na numevɔsa lae nye nyitsu blaadre, agbo alafa ɖeka kple agbovi alafa eve. Wotsɔ nu siawo katã vɛ hena numevɔsasa na Yehowa.
Inani leminikelo yokutshiswa eyalethwa libandla kwakuzinkunzi ezingamatshumi ayisikhombisa, inqama ezilikhulu lamazinyane amaduna ezimvu angamakhulu amabili, konke kungokomnikelo wokutshiswa kuThixo.
33 Ke lã siwo ŋuti wokɔ abe vɔsalãwo ene la, le nyitsu alafa ade, alẽ kple gbɔ̃ akpe etɔ̃.
Izifuyo ezahlukaniselwa ukuba ngumhlatshelo kwakuzinkunzi ezingamakhulu ayisithupha lezimvu lembuzi ezizinkulungwane ezintathu.
34 Ke nunɔlawo mesɔ gbɔ na numevɔ la sasa o, ale wo nɔvi Levitɔwo kpe ɖe wo ŋu va se ɖe esime wowu dɔ la nu eye va se ɖe esime nunɔla geɖewo va dɔwɔƒe la; elabena Levitɔwo nɔ klalo be yewoakɔ yewo ɖokuiwo ŋu wu ale si nunɔlawo nɔ klaloe.
Kodwa, abaphristi babebalutshwana kakhulu ekuhlinzeni ezomnikelo wokutshiswa; ngakho basebencediswa ngabafowabo abaLevi waze waphela umsebenzi njalo abanye abaphristi baze bangcweliswa ngoba abaLevi babekunanzelele kakhulu ukuzingcwelisa kulabaphristi.
35 Numevɔsawo sɔ gbɔ kpe ɖe woƒe nunovɔsawo ŋu eye akpedavɔsawo hã sɔ gbɔ. Ale wogadze mawusubɔsubɔ kple vɔwo sasa gɔme le gbedoxɔ la me.
Umnikelo wokutshiswa wawumnengi, kanye lamafutha omnikelo wobudlelwano kanye lomnikelo wokunathwayo okwakuhambelana lomnikelo wokutshiswa. Ngakho lokhu kwaba yikuvuselelwa kwenkonzo ethempelini likaThixo.
36 Hezekia kple ameawo katã kpɔ dzidzɔ ŋutɔ le nu siwo Mawu wɔ le ɣeyiɣi kpui ma me la ta.
UHezekhiya labo bonke abantu bajabula ngababekuphiwe nguNkulunkulu ekwenzela abantu bakhe, ngoba kwakwenzakale ngokuphangisa.
