4 Nĩaarutĩire magongona na agĩcinĩra ũbumba kũndũ kũrĩa gũtũũgĩru, na tũcũmbĩrĩ-inĩ twa irĩma, o na rungu rwa mĩtĩ ĩrĩa mĩruru.
Ɔbɔɔ afɔdeɛ, hyee nnuhwam wɔ abosomfie, mmepɔ so ne dua frɔmfrɔm biara ase.
5 Hĩndĩ ĩyo Rezini mũthamaki wa Suriata, na Peka mũrũ wa Remalia mũthamaki wa Isiraeli, makiumagara makahũũrane na Jerusalemu, na makĩrigiicĩria Ahazu, no matiamũtooririe.
Afei, Aramhene Resin ne Israelhene Peka tuu sa wɔ Ahas so. Wɔkɔtuaa Yerusalem, nanso wɔanni so nkonim.
6 Hĩndĩ ĩyo Rezini mũthamaki wa Suriata agĩtunyana itũũra rĩa Elathu, akĩrĩcookeria Suriata, na akĩingata andũ a Juda. Andũ a Edomu magĩthaamĩra Elathu, na matũire kuo nginya ũmũthĩ.
Saa ɛberɛ no, Edomhene gyee Elat kuro maa Edom. Ɔpamoo Yudafoɔ, na ɔmaa Edomfoɔ no kɔtenaa hɔ, sɛdeɛ ɛte ɛnnɛ yi.
7 Ahazu agĩtũma andũ kũrĩ Tigilathu-Pileseru mũthamaki wa Ashuri makamwĩre atĩrĩ, “Nĩ niĩ ndungata na ngombo yaku. Ambata, ũũke ũũhonokie kuuma guoko-inĩ kwa mũthamaki wa Suriata na mũthamaki wa Isiraeli, arĩa maratharĩkĩra.”
Ɔhene Ahas somaa abɔfoɔ kɔɔ Asiriahene Tiglat-Pileser nkyɛn, de nkra kɔmaa no sɛ, “Meyɛ wo ɔsomfoɔ ne wo ba. Bra na bɛgye me firi Aram ne Israel akodɔm a wɔaka me ahyɛ no nsam.”
8 Nake Ahazu agĩkuua betha na thahabu iria ciarĩ hekarũ-inĩ ya Jehova, na igĩĩna-inĩ iria cia nyũmba ya ũthamaki, na agĩcitũma irĩ iheo kũrĩ mũthamaki wa Ashuri.
Na Ahas faa dwetɛ ne sikakɔkɔɔ firii Awurade Asɔredan mu hɔ, faa ahemfie hɔ sika de kyɛɛ Asiriahene no.
9 Mũthamaki wa Ashuri agĩĩtĩkĩra na ũndũ wa gũtharĩkĩra itũũra rĩa Dameski na akĩrĩtunyana. Agĩthaamia atũũri akuo akĩmatwara Kiri na akĩũraga Rezini.
Enti, Asiriafoɔ no kɔtuaa Aramfoɔ no wɔ wɔn kuropɔn Damasko mu, kyekyeree ɛhɔfoɔ no nnommum, de wɔn kɔ kɔtenaa Kir. Wɔkumm ɔhene Resin.
10 Hĩndĩ ĩyo Mũthamaki Ahazu agĩthiĩ Dameski gũtũngana na Tigilathu-Pileseru mũthamaki wa Ashuri. Nake akĩona kĩgongona kũu Dameski, agĩtũmĩra Uria mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai mũcoro wa kĩgongona kĩu o na mwakĩre wakĩo o ta ũrĩa gĩakĩtwo.
Ɔhene Ahas kɔɔ Damasko, kɔhyiaa Asiriahene Tiglat-Pileser. Ɛberɛ a ɔwɔ hɔ no, ɔhunuu afɔrebukyia sononko bi. Enti, ɔde saa afɔrebukyia no sɛso ho mfoni, kɔmaa ɔsɔfoɔ Uria.
11 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Uria ũrĩa mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai agĩaka kĩgongona kũringana na ũrĩa wothe aatũmĩirwo, gĩcoretwo nĩ Mũthamaki Ahazu kuuma Dameski, na agĩkĩrĩĩkia mbere ya Mũthamaki Ahazu gũcooka.
Uria nam ɔhene no asɛm so yɛɛ saa afɔrebukyia no bi pɛpɛɛpɛ, na ɛberɛ a ɔfiri Damasko baeɛ no, na wɔayɛ awie.
12 Rĩrĩa mũthamaki aacookire kuuma Dameski na akĩona kĩgongona kĩu, agĩkuhĩrĩria na akĩrutĩra igongona igũrũ rĩakĩo.
Ɔhene no firi Damasko baeɛ no, ɔhwɛɛ afɔrebukyia no ho hyiaeɛ, bɔɔ so afɔdeɛ.
13 Akĩruta igongona rĩake rĩa njino na rĩa mũtu, na agĩitĩrĩria indo iria irutagwo cia kũnyuuo na akĩminjaminjĩria kĩgongona kĩu thakame ya maruta ma ũiguano.
Ɔhene no bɔɔ ɔhyeɛ afɔdeɛ ne atokoɔ afɔdeɛ, hwiee nsã afɔdeɛ guu so, na ɔpetee asomdwoeɛ afɔdeɛ ho mogya guu so.
14 Nakĩo kĩgongona gĩa gĩcango kĩrĩa kĩarĩ mbere ya Jehova, agĩkĩruta mwena wa na mbere wa hekarũ, kuuma gatagatĩ-inĩ ga kĩgongona kĩu kĩerũ na hekarũ ya Jehova, agĩkĩiga mwena wa gathigathini wa kĩgongona kĩu kĩerũ.
Na ɔhene Ahas yii kɔbere mfrafraeɛ afɔrebukyia a na ɛsi ɛkwan no ano ne afɔrebukyia foforɔ yi ntam no, firii Awurade Asɔredan no anim, de kɔsii afɔrebukyia foforɔ no atifi fam.
15 Hĩndĩ ĩyo Mũthamaki Ahazu akĩhe Uria ũrĩa mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai mawatho maya: “Igũrũ rĩa kĩgongona kĩu kĩnene kĩerũ, rutagĩra ho iruta rĩa njino rĩa rũciinĩ, na iruta rĩa mũtu rĩa hwaĩ-inĩ, na iruta rĩa mũthamaki rĩa njino, na iruta rĩake rĩa mũtu, na iruta rĩa njino rĩa andũ othe a bũrũri, na iruta rĩao rĩa mũtu na iruta rĩao rĩa kũnyuuo. Na ũminjaminjagĩrie kĩgongona thakame yothe ya maruta ma njino na ya magongona. No kĩgongona gĩa gĩcango, ndĩrĩkĩhũthagĩra na gũtuĩria ũhoro kuuma kũrĩ Jehova.”
Ɔka kyerɛɛ ɔsɔfoɔ Uria sɛ, “Bɔ anɔpa afɔdeɛ nyinaa a ɛyɛ ɔhyeɛ afɔdeɛ no, anwummerɛ atokoɔ afɔdeɛ no, ɔhene ɔhyeɛ afɔdeɛ ne atokoɔ afɔdeɛ ne nnipa no nyinaa afɔdeɛ a wɔn nsa afɔdeɛ ka ho wɔ so.

16 Nake Uria ũrĩa mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai agĩĩka o ta ũrĩa Mũthamaki Ahazu aamwathĩte.
Na ɔsɔfoɔ Uria yɛɛ deɛ ɔhene Ahas ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ ɔnyɛ no pɛpɛɛpɛ.
17 Mũthamaki Ahazu akĩeheria icunjĩ cia mwena-inĩ, na akĩeheria iraĩ kuuma makaari-inĩ macio. Akĩeheria itangi rĩrĩa rĩetagwo Karia igũrũ rĩa mĩhianano ya ndegwa cia gĩcango iria ciakanyiitĩrĩire, na agĩkaigĩrĩra itina-inĩ cia mahiga.
Na afei, ɔhene no tutuu afasuo no nkatanimu nnua ne nsuhina nso firi nsuo teaseɛnam no so. Afei ɔyii Po no firii kɔbere mfrafraeɛ anantwie no akyi de sii aboɔ nsameeɛ no so.
18 Nĩeheririe gĩthaku gĩa Thabatũ kĩrĩa gĩakĩtwo hekarũ-inĩ, na agĩthaamia itoonyero rĩa athamaki hau nja ya hekarũ ya Jehova, nĩguo akenie mũthamaki wa Ashuri.
Na anidie a ɔde ma Asiriahene no enti, ɔyii kyiniiɛ bi a na wɔayɛ wɔ ahemfie no mu a na wɔde di dwuma homeda no ne ɔhene no abɔntenkwan a ɛkɔ Awurade Asɔredan mu no firii hɔ.
19 Ha ũhoro wa maũndũ marĩa mangĩ makoniĩ wathani wa Ahazu, na ũrĩa eekire-rĩ, githĩ matiandĩkĩtwo ibuku-inĩ rĩa mahinda ma athamaki a Juda?
Ahas ahennie ho nsɛm nkaeɛ no ne dwuma ahodoɔ a ɔdiiɛ no, wɔatwerɛ agu Yuda Ahemfo Abakɔsɛm Nwoma no mu.
20 Nake Ahazu akĩhurũka hamwe na maithe make, na agĩthikwo hamwe nao Itũũra-inĩ inene rĩa Daudi. Nake mũriũ Hezekia agĩtuĩka mũthamaki ithenya rĩake.
Ɛberɛ a Ahas wuiɛ no, wɔsiee no ne mpanimfoɔ nkyɛn wɔ Dawid kuro mu. Na ne babarima Hesekia bɛdii nʼadeɛ sɛ ɔhene.
