< Fiawo 2 14 >
1 Le Israel fia, Yehoas, Yehoahaz ƒe vi ƒe fiaɖuɖu ƒe ƒe evelia me la, Amazia, Yoas ƒe vi zu fia le Yuda.
Ngomnyaka wesibili kaJowashi indodana kaJehowahazi inkosi yako-Israyeli, u-Amaziya indodana kaJowashi inkosi yakoJuda waqalisa ukubusa.
2 Amazia xɔ ƒe blaeve vɔ atɔ̃ ɣe ma ɣi eye wòɖu fia le Yerusalem ƒe blaeve-vɔ-asiekɛ. Dadaa ŋkɔe nye Yehoadin, ame si tso Yerusalem.
Wayeleminyaka engamatshumi amabili lanhlanu eqalisa ukubusa, njalo wabusa eJerusalema okweminyaka engamatshumi amabili lasificamunwemunye. Unina kwakunguJehowadani, owayevela eJerusalema.
3 Amazia wɔ nu si dze Yehowa ŋu. Togbɔ be mede tɔgbuia David nu o hã la, enye fia nyui aɖe abe fofoa Yoas ene.
Yena wenza okulungileyo phambi kukaThixo, kodwa kwakungafanani lokukayise uDavida. Kukho konke ayekwenza walandela inyathelo likayise uJowashi.
4 Megbã nuxeƒewo le toawo dzi o, ale ameawo gasaa vɔ eye wogadoa dzudzɔ ʋeʋĩ le afi ma kokoko.
Kodwa izindawo eziphakemeyo zokukhonzela azizange zisuswe; abantu baqhubeka benikela imihlatshelo lokutshisa impepha kulezondawo.
5 Esi Amazia kpɔ be fiaɖuƒe la li ke ɖe yeƒe asi me la, ewu dumegã siwo katã wu fofoa.
Kuthe umbuso usuqinile ezandleni zakhe, wabulala izikhulu ezazibulele uyise owayeyinkosi.
6 Ke mewu hlɔ̃dolawo ƒe viwo o, abe ale si Yehowa de se gblɔ woŋlɔ ɖe Mose ƒe Segbalẽa me ene bena, “Womawu fofowo ɖe viwo ƒe nu vɔ̃wo ta o, eye nenema ke womawu viwo ɖe fofowo ƒe nu vɔ̃wo ta o. Woawu ame sia ame ɖe eya ŋutɔ ko ƒe nu vɔ̃ ta.”
Kodwa kasabulalanga amadodana alabo ababulala uyise inkosi, njengokulotshiweyo eNcwadini yoMthetho kaMosi lapho uThixo alaya khona wathi: “Abazali abayikufela abantwababo, loba abantwana bafele abazali babo; ngulowo lalowo uzafela isono sakhe.”
7 Amaziae wu Edomtɔ akpe ewo le Dze Balime. Exɔ Sela du la hã eye wòtrɔ ŋkɔ nɛ bena Yɔkteel. Ŋkɔ sia tsi eŋu va se ɖe egbe.
Nguye owanqoba ama-Edomi azinkulungwane ezilitshumi, eSigodini seTswayi waze wathumba iSela empini, wayibiza ngokuthi yiJokitheli, okulibizo layo kuze kube lalamuhla.
8 Gbe ɖeka la, Yuda fia, Amazia ɖo du ɖe Israel fia Yehoas, Yehoahaz ƒe vi kple Yehu tɔgbuiyɔvi la, be ne enye ŋutsu la, wòakplɔ eƒe aʋakɔ vɛ yewoawɔ aʋa.
Ngakho u-Amaziya wathumela izithunywa kuJowashi indodana kaJehowahazi, indodana kaJehu, inkosi yako-Israyeli emqopha esithi, “Woza, uqondane lami ubuso ngobuso.”
9 Fia Yehoas do lo sia na Amazia be, “Ŋuve sue aɖe le Lebanon towo dzi gblɔ na sedati be, ‘Tsɔ viwò nyɔnu nam maɖe na vinye ŋutsu.’ Le ɣe ma ɣi tututu la, lã wɔadã aɖe va nye avuzi le ŋuve la dzi eye wògbãe ɖe anyigba.
Kodwa uJowashi inkosi yako-Israyeli waphendula u-Amaziya inkosi yakoJuda wathi, “Isihlahlana sameva saseLebhanoni sathumela umsedari eLebhanoni ilizwi sathi, ‘Yendisela indodakazi yakho endodaneni yami.’ Kwavela isilo eLabhanoni eseza safika sagxobagxoba isihlahlana sameva ngamasondo aso.
10 Èɖu Edomtɔwo dzi eye wònye adegbeƒoƒo gã aɖe na wò. Ke aɖaŋu si maɖo na wò lae nye nàkpɔ ŋudzedze le wò dziɖuɖu ŋu eye nànɔ mia de kpoo! Nu ka ta nàhe dzɔgbevɔ̃e va ɖokuiwò kple Yuda siaa dzi?”
Ngempela uyinqobile i-Edomi ngakho khathesi usuziqhenya. Ziqhenye ekunqobeni kwakho, kodwa uhlale ekhaya! Kungani uzibizela uhlupho uzibangela ukulwa kwakho njalo lokukaJuda na?”
11 Ke Amazia gbe toɖoɖoe, ale Israel fia Yehoas ƒo ƒu aʋakɔ aɖe nu ɖe eŋu. Yoas kple Amazia ƒe aʋakɔwo do go le Bet Semes le Yuda.

UJowashi inkosi yako-Israyeli wathumba u-Amaziya inkosi yakoJuda, indodana kaJowashi, eyindodana ka-Ahaziya, eBhethi-Shemeshi. Ngakho uJowashi wasesiya eJerusalema wayadiliza umduli weJerusalema kusukela esangweni lika-Efrayimi kusiya eSangweni leJiko, isibanga esingaba yizingalo ezingamakhulu ayisithupha ubude.

U-Amaziya indodana kaJowashi inkosi yakoJuda waphila okweminyaka elitshumi lemihlanu ngemva kokufa kukaJowashi indodana kaJehowahazi inkosi yako-Israyeli.

19 Woɖo nugbe ɖe eƒe agbe ŋu le Yerusalem ale wòsi yi Lakis, ke eƒe futɔwo dɔ ame ɖa woyi Lakis ɖawui le afi ma.

24 Enye fia vɔ̃ɖi aɖe le Yehowa ŋkume abe Yeroboam Gbãtɔ, Nebat ƒe vi, ame si kplɔ Israel de legbawo subɔsubɔ ƒe nu vɔ̃ me la ene.
Wenza ububi phambi kukaThixo njalo kazange atshiye lasinye sezono zikaJerobhowamu indodana kaNebhathi, lezo abangela u-Israyeli ukuthi azenze.
