< Kronika 2 35 >
1 Yosia ɖu Ŋutitotoŋkekenyui na Yehowa le Yerusalem eye wowu Ŋutitotolẽvi la le ɣleti gbãtɔ ƒe ŋkeke wuienelia dzi.
UJosiya wenza uMkhosi wePhasika kuThixo eJerusalema, iwundlu lePhasika lahlatshwa ngosuku lwetshumi lane lwenyanga yakuqala.
2 Yosia gbugbɔ nunɔlawo ɖo woƒe dɔwo nu eye wòdo ŋusẽ wo be woagadze woƒe dɔwo wɔwɔ gɔme le gbedoxɔ la me.
Wabeka abaphristi ngemisebenzi yabo njalo wabakhuthaza emsebenzini wethempeli likaThixo.
3 Eɖo na Levitɔ siwo ŋu wokɔ eye wonye mawunyafialawo le Israel be, “Esi nubablaɖaka la le Solomo ƒe agbadɔ me azɔ ta la, megahiã be mianɔ ekɔm ɖe abɔta tso teƒe ɖeka yi teƒe bubu o eya ta miwɔ miaƒe ɣeyiɣi ŋu dɔ hena mawusɔbɔsubɔdɔwo wɔwɔ na Yehowa kple eƒe amewo.
KubaLevi, ababefundisa abako-Israyeli bonke njalo ababevele behlukaniselwe uThixo wathi: “Bekani ibhokisi lesivumelwano elingcwele ethempelini elakhiwa nguSolomoni indodana kaDavida inkosi yako-Israyeli. Akumelanga libe lithwalwa ngamahlombe enu. Khathesi khonzani uThixo uNkulunkulu wenu labantu bakhe bako-Israyeli.
4 Midzra mia ɖokuiwo ɖo ɖe ƒomewo nu le míaƒe hatsotsowo me ɖe ale si David, Israel fia kple via, Solomo, ŋlɔe da ɖi la nu.
Hlanganani ngezindlu zenu langezigaba zenu, kusiya ngeziqondiso ezalotshwa nguDavida inkosi yako-Israyeli kanye loSolomoni indodana yakhe.
5 “Mitsi tsitre ɖe Kɔkɔeƒe la kple Levitɔwo ƒe ha aɖe ɖe ƒomewo ƒe ha ɖe sia ɖe nu ɖe mia nɔvi siwo menye nunɔlawo o la nu.
Manini endaweni engcwele leqembu labaLevi kuzozonke izigaba ngezindlu zezihlobo zenu, kube ngabemuli.
6 Miwu Ŋutitotoŋkekenyui la ƒe alẽviawo, mikɔ mia ɖokuiwo ŋuti eye miakpe ɖe ame siwo va la ŋuti ɖe ɖoɖo siwo Yehowa na to Mose dzi la nu.”
Hlabani amawundlu ePhasika, lizihlambulule lilungisele izihlobo zenu lenze njengokutsho kwelizwi likaThixo ngoMosi.”
7 Fia la tsɔ alẽvi kple gbɔ̃vi akpe blaetɔ̃ kple nyitsuvi akpe etɔ̃ na ameawo be woatsɔ asa Ŋutitotoŋkekenyui la ƒe vɔwoe.
UJosiya wanika abantu makhaza bonke ababekhona izimvu lembuzi eziyizinkulungwane ezingamatshumi amathathu zomnikelo wePhasika, kanye lenkomo eziyizinkulungwane ezintathu, zonke zingezayo inkosi.
8 Dumegãwo na lɔlɔ̃nununanawo nunɔlawo kple Levitɔwo. Hilkia, Zekaria kple Yehiel, ame siwo nye gbedoxɔ la dzikpɔlawo la na alẽ kple gbɔ̃ akpe eve alafa ade kple nyitsu alafa etɔ̃ abe woƒe Ŋutitotoŋkekenyui ƒe vɔsanuwo ene.
Izikhulu zakhe lazo zapha ngokuzinikela ebantwini zapha labaphristi labaLevi. UHilikhiya, loZakhariya loJehiyeli, abaphrofethi bethempeli likaNkulunkulu, bapha abaphristi iminikelo yePhasika engamakhulu angamatshumi amabili lesithupha lenkomo ezingamakhulu amathathu.
9 Levitɔwo ƒe kplɔlawo, Konania, Semaya kple Netanel kple nɔviawo, Hasabia, Yeiel kple Yozabad na alẽ kple gbɔ̃ akpe atɔ̃ kple nyitsu alafa atɔ̃ Levitɔwo hena woƒe Ŋutitotoŋkekenyui la ƒe vɔsa.
Abanye abapha kanye loKhenaniya loShemaya, loNethaneli, abafowabo, kanye loHashabhiya, loJeyiyeli, loJozabhadi, abakhokheli babaLevi, bapha okomnikelo wePhasika izinkulungwane ezinhlanu kanye lenkomo ezingamakhulu amahlanu ezabaLevi.
10 Esi wowu ɖoɖo ɖe sia ɖe nu vɔ la, nunɔlaawo tsi tsitre ɖe woƒe nɔƒewo eye Levitɔwo nɔ woƒe dɔwɔhawo me abe ale si fia la ɖo na wo ene.
Inkonzo yalungiswa kwathi abaphristi bema ezindaweni zabo labaLevi ezigabeni zabo ngeziqondiso zenkosi.
11 Levitɔwo wu Ŋutitotoŋkekenyui la ƒe alẽviawo eye wotsɔ woƒe ʋu na nunɔlaawo wohlẽ ɖe vɔsamlekpui la ŋu, esi Levitɔwo ɖe agbalẽ le lãawo ŋu.
Amawundlu ePhasika ahlatshwa, abaphristi bemukela igazi bachela ngalo, abaLevi ngalesosikhathi babehlinza.
12 Woli kɔ alẽ siwo wowu la ɖi na hlɔ̃ vovovoawo be hlɔ̃ ɖe sia ɖe natsɔ etɔ asa numevɔe na Yehowa abe ale si woŋlɔe ɖe Mose ƒe sewo me ene. Wowɔ nyi siwo wowu hã nenema ke.
Babeka eceleni iminikelo yokutshiswa ukuze banike izigaba ngezigaba zezimuli zabantu ukuze banikele kuThixo, njengokulotshiweyo eGwalweni lukaMosi. Benza okufaneleyo lasenkomeni.
13 Le esia megbe la, wome Ŋutitotoŋkekenyui la ƒe alẽviawo eye woɖa nunana kɔkɔewo le zewo kple agbawo me le Mose ƒe se la nu eye woɖe abla tsɔ wo yi na ameawo be woaɖu.
Bosa izinyamazana zePhasika emlilweni njengokulaywa kwabo, babilisa iminikelo engcwele ezimbizeni, ezindengezini lasemapaneni baphanga bakuphakela abantu.
14 Emegbe la, Levitɔwo ɖa nu na woawo ŋutɔ kple nunɔlaawo, Aron ƒe viwo, elabena wonɔ dɔ dzi tso ŋdi va se ɖe fiẽ henɔ dzo tɔm numevɔsalãwo ƒe ami.
Ngemva kwalokho, bazilungisela okwabo ndawonye lokwabaphristi, ngoba abaphristi, abayinzalo ka-Aroni, babephathekile ngeminikelo yokutshiswa kanye leyamahwahwa kwaze kwaba kusihlwa. Ngakho abaLevi bazilungisela okwabo lokwabaphristi abangabendlu ka-Aroni.
15 Hadzilawo, ame siwo nye Asaf ƒe viwo la nɔ woƒe nɔƒewo eye wozɔ ɖe ɖoɖo siwo Fia David, Asaf, Heman kple Yedutun, fia la ƒe nyagblɔɖila wɔ da ɖi ƒe geɖewo do ŋgɔ la dzi. Agbonudzɔlawo dzɔ agboawo nu, womedzo le woƒe agbowo nu o elabena wo nɔvi Levitɔwo tsɔ woƒe nuɖuɖu yi na wo.
Abahlabeleli, abenzalo ka-Asafi, babesezindaweni ezaqanjwa nguDavida, lo-Asafi, loHemani kanye loJeduthuni umboni wenkosi. Abalindi bamasango esangweni linye ngalinye akuzange kudingeke ukuthi basuke ezindaweni zabo, ngoba abaLevi abayizihlobo zabo babebalungisele okwabo.
16 Wowu Ŋutitotoŋkekenyui la ɖuɖu nu le ŋkeke ɖeka ma dzi. Wosa numevɔwo katã le Yehowa ƒe vɔsamlekpui la dzi abe ale si Yosia ɖoe da ɖi ene.
Ngakho ngalesosikhathi umsebenzi kaThixo wenzelwa ukugcinwa kwePhasika lokunikelwa kweminikelo yokutshiswa e-alithareni likaThixo, njengoba inkosi uJosiya yayitshilo.
17 Israelvi siwo nɔ Yerusalem la kpɔ gome le Ŋutitotoŋkekenyui la ɖuɖu me. Le esia megbe la, woɖu Abolo Maʋamaʋã ƒe Ŋkekenyui ŋkeke adre.
Abako-Israyeli ababekhona bathakazelela iPhasika ngalesosikhathi njalo bathakazelela uMkhosi weSinkwa esingelaMvubelo okwensuku eziyisikhombisa.
18 Tso Nyagblɔɖila Samuel ƒe ɣeyiɣi dzi la, womegaɖu Ŋutitotoŋkekenyui la wòdze edzi alea kpɔ o, eye Israel fiawo dometɔ aɖeke mate ŋu aʋli ho kple Fia Yosia le ale si nunɔlawo, Levitɔwo kple ame siwo tso Yerusalem kple Yuda kple Israel ƒe akpa sia akpa sɔ gbɔe va ɖu Ŋutitotoŋkekenyui sia me o.
IPhasika lalingazange ligcinwe ngalindlela ko-Israyeli kusukela ngezinsuku zomphrofethi uSamuyeli; njalo kayikho leyodwa inkosi yako-Israyeli eyayike yathakazelela iPhasika elinjengaleli elenziwa nguJosiya, labaphristi, labaLevi labo bonke abakoJuda labako-Israyeli ababelapho labantu baseJerusalema.
19 Woɖu Ŋutitotoŋkekenyui sia le fia Yosia ƒe fiaɖuɖu ƒe ƒe wuienyilia me.
LeliPhasika lathakazelelwa ngomnyaka wetshumi lasificaminwembili mibili wokubusa kukaJosiya.
20 Le esia megbe la, esi Yosia ɖɔ gbedoxɔ la ɖo vɔ la, Egipte fia Neko ho yi be yeawɔ aʋa le Karkemis gbɔ le Frat tɔsisi la to, eye Yosia hã ho yi ɖakpee.
Ngemva kwakho konke lokhu uJosiya eseqondisile konke ngeThempeli, uNekho inkosi yaseGibhithe wayahlasela iKharikhemishi eYufrathe, uJosiya waphuma ukuyadibana laye empini.
21 Neko ɖo amewo ɖe Yosia gbɔ be, “Nyemedi be mawɔ aʋa kpli wò, Yuda fia, o! Meva be mawɔ aʋa kple ame si mekpe aʋa kplii ko. Ɖe asi le ŋunye elabena Mawu gblɔ nam be, mawɔ kaba eya ta mègade nu Mawu ƒe nya sia me ne wòatsrɔ̃ wò o elabena Mawu li kplim.”
Kodwa uNekho wamthumela amanxusa esithi, “Kulokuxabana bani phakathi kwami lawe, we nkosi yakoJuda? Phela angihlaseli wena khathesi, ngihlaselana laleyondlu engilwa layo impi. UNkulunkulu ungitshele ukuba ngiphangise; wena mana ungaphikisani loNkulunkulu, yena olami, funa akubhubhise.”
22 Ke Yosia metrɔ dzo o, ke boŋ ekplɔ eƒe aʋakɔ la eye wòkpe aʋa kple Fia Neko ƒe aʋakɔ la le Megido balime. Eɖe eƒe fiawu da ɖi ale be futɔwo makpɔe adze sii o. Yosia mexɔe se be Mawu gbɔe Neko ƒe nya la tso o.
Kodwa uJosiya kazange amyekele, wazifihla ukuze abe sempini. Kazange alalele akutshelwa nguNekho kuvela kuNkulunkulu kodwa laye wayakulwa emagcekeni aseMegido.
23 Futɔwo ƒe aŋutrɔdalawo ŋɔ Fia Yosia kple woƒe aŋutrɔwo eye wode abi eŋu. Yosia do ɣli na eŋumewo be, “Mitsɔm dzoe le aʋagbe la dzi.”
Abatshoki bayiciba inkosi uJosiya, yatshela izikhulu zayo yathi, “Ngisusani lapha, sengilimele kakubi.”
24 Ale woɖee le eƒe tasiaɖam me de tasiaɖam evelia si nɔ esi la me eye wotsɔe yi Yerusalem, afi si wòku le. Woɖii ɖe tɔgbuiawo ƒe ɖiƒe eye Yuda blibo la kple Yerusalem fae.
Ngakho bamethula enqoleni yakhe yokulwa, bamfaka kweyinye ayelayo bamusa eJerusalema, lapho afela khona. Wangcwatshwa emathuneni abokhokho bakhe, bonke abakoJuda labako-Israyeli bamlilela.
25 Yeremia kpa konyifahawo na Yosia eye va se ɖe egbe la, hadzilawo, ŋutsuwo kple nyɔnuwo siaa ɖoa ŋku Yosia dzi le konyifahawo me. Esia zu kɔnu le Israel eye woŋlɔ wo ɖe Konyifahawo me.
UJeremiya laye waloba isililo ngoJosiya, njalo kuze kube lamuhla abahlabeleli bonke abesilisa labesifazane lokhu behaya isililo ngoJosiya. Lokhu kulila kwaba ngumkhuba ko-Israyeli njalo kubhaliwe eZililweni.
26 Woŋlɔ Yosia ƒe nuwɔna kple dɔ nyui bubuwo wɔwɔ kple ale si wòwɔ Yehowa ƒe sewo dzi la
Ezinye izehlakalo ngokubusa kukaJosiya lezinye izenzo zokuzinikela kwakhe, mayelana lokulotshiweyo eMthethweni kaThixo
27 ɖe Israel fiawo kple Yuda fiawo ƒe Ŋutinya me.
zonke izehlakalo, kusukela ekuqaleni kuze kube sekuphetheni, kulotshiwe egwalweni lwamakhosi ako-Israyeli lakoJuda.
