2 Tarihi 25
1 Amaziya yana da shekara ashirin da biyar sa’ad da ya zama sarki, ya kuma yi mulki a Urushalima shekara ashirin da tara. Sunan mahaifiyarsa Yehoyaddin ce; ita daga Urushalima ne.
Amaziah was twenty-five years old when he had begun to reign. And he reigned for twenty-nine years in Jerusalem. The name of his mother was Jehoaddan, from Jerusalem.
2 Ya yi abin da yake daidai a gaban Ubangiji, amma ba da dukan zuciyarsa ba.
And he accomplished good in the sight of the Lord. Yet truly, not with a perfect heart.
3 Bayan sarauta ta kahu a ƙarƙashinsa, sai ya kashe hafsoshin da suka kashe mahaifinsa sarki.
And when he saw himself to be strengthened in his rule, he cut the throats of the servants who had killed his father, the king.
4 Duk da haka bai kashe’ya’yansu maza ba amma ya yi bisa ga abin da yake a rubuce a cikin Doka, a cikin Littafin Musa, inda Ubangiji ya umarta, “Ba za a kashe iyaye saboda’ya’yansu ba; ba kuwa za a kashe’ya’ya saboda iyayensu ba; kowa zai mutu saboda zunubansa ne.”
But he did not put to death their sons, just as it was written in the book of the law of Moses, where the Lord instructed, saying: “The fathers shall not be slain because of the sons, nor the sons because of their fathers. Instead, each one shall die for his own sin.”
5 Amaziya ya tattara mutanen Yahuda ya kuma ba su aiki bisa ga iyalansu, ya ba da aiki ga shugabannin dubu-dubu da shugabannin ɗari-ɗari, a dukan Yahuda da Benyamin. Ya kuma tattara waɗanda suke’yan shekara ashirin da haihuwa ko fiye ya sami mutane dubu ɗari uku da suke a shirye don aikin soja, da suka isa riƙe māshi da garkuwa.
And then Amaziah gathered together Judah, and he organized them by families, and tribunes, and centurions, throughout all of Judah and Benjamin. And he numbered them from twenty years old and upward. And he found three hundred thousand young men, who could go forth to battle, and who could hold spear and shield.
6 Ya kuma ɗauko sojan haya jarumawa dubu ɗari ɗaya daga Isra’ila a kan talenti ɗari na azurfa.
Also, he hired for pay from Israel one hundred thousand experienced men, for one hundred talents of silver.
7 Amma mutumin Allah ya zo wurinsa ya ce, “Ya sarki, waɗannan runduna daga Isra’ila ba za su tafi tare da kai ba, gama Ubangiji ba ya tare da Isra’ila, ba ya nan da wani cikin mutanen Efraim.
Then a man of God came to him, and he said: “O king, let not the army of Israel go forth with you. For the Lord is not with Israel, nor with all the sons of Ephraim.
8 Ko da ma ya tafi ya yi faɗa da ƙwazo a cikin yaƙi, Allah zai tumɓuke shi a gaban abokan gāba, gama Allah yana da iko yă taimaka ko yă tumɓuke.”
But if you think that a war stands by the strength of the army, God will cause you to be overwhelmed by the enemies. For indeed, it belongs to God to assist, and to put to flight.”
9 Amaziya ya tambayi mutumin Allah ya ce, “Amma game da talenti ɗarin da na biya saboda waɗannan rundunonin Isra’ila fa?” Mutumin Allah ya amsa, “Ubangiji zai ba ka fiye da wannan.”
And Amaziah said to the man of God, “Then what will become of the one hundred talents, which I gave to the soldiers of Israel?” And the man of God responded to him, “The Lord has that from which he is able to give much more than this to you.”
10 Saboda haka Amaziya ya sallame rundunonin da suka zo daga Efraim, ya kuma mayar da su gida. Suka husata da Yahuda suka koma gida da fushi sosai.
And so, Amaziah separated the army, which had come to him from Ephraim, so that they would return to their place. But having become very angry against Judah, they returned to their own region.
11 Sa’an nan Amaziya ya yi ƙarfin hali ya jagoranci mayaƙansa zuwa Kwarin Gishiri, inda ya kashe mutanen Seyir dubu goma.
Then Amaziah confidently led forth his people. And he went away to the Valley of the Salt Pits, and he struck down ten thousand of the sons of Seir.
12 Mayaƙan Yahuda suka kuma kama mutane dubu goma da rai, suka ɗauke su zuwa ƙwanƙolin dutsen, suka yi ta tunkuɗa su ƙasa suka yi kaca-kaca.
And the sons of Judah captured another ten thousand of the men. And they led them to the precipice of a certain rock. And they threw them from the summit, and they were all broken apart.
13 Ana cikin haka, sai rundunar da Amaziya ya mai da su gida, waɗanda ba a bari suka tafi yaƙin ba, suka kai wa garuruwan Yahuda daga Samariya zuwa Bet-Horon hari. Suka kashe mutane dubu uku suka kwashe ganima mai yawan gaske.
But the army that Amaziah had sent away, so that they would not go with him into battle, spread out among the cities of Judah, from Samaria as far as Beth-horon. And having killed three thousand, they took away much plunder.
14 Da Amaziya ya dawo daga kisan mutanen Edom, sai ya dawo da allolin mutanen Seyir. Ya kafa su a matsayin allolinsa, ya rusuna musu, ya kuma miƙa musu hadayun ƙonawa.
Truly, after the slaughter of the Edomites, and when the gods of the sons of Seir were brought, Amaziah chose them as gods for himself. And he was adoring them, and burning incense to them.
15 Fushin Ubangiji ya yi ƙuna a kan Amaziya, sai ya aiki wani annabi wurinsa wanda ya ce, “Me ya sa ka nemi shawarar allolin mutanen nan, waɗanda ba za su cece mutanensu daga hannunka ba?”
For this reason, the Lord became angry against Amaziah, and he sent a prophet to him, who would say to him, “Why have you adored gods who did not free their own people from your hand?”
16 Tun yana cikin magana, sai sarki ya ce masa, “Yaushe muka naɗa ka mai ba sarki shawara? Rufe mana baki! Me zai hana a kashe ka?” Sai annabin ya yi shiru, amma ya ce, “Na dai sani Allah ya riga ya shirya zai hallaka ka, saboda ka aikata wannan, ba ka kuma saurari shawarata ba.”
And after he spoke these things, he responded to him: “Are you the counselor of the king? Be quiet! Otherwise I will put you to death.” And departing, the prophet said, “I know that God has decided to kill you, because you have done this evil, and also because you have not agreed to my counsel.”
17 Bayan Amaziya sarkin Yahuda ya nemi shawara mashawartansa, sai ya kalubalanci Yowash ɗan Yehoyahaz, ɗan Yehu, sarkin Isra’ila, “Zo mu gamu fuska da fuska.”
And so Amaziah, the king of Judah, undertaking a very wicked counsel, sent to Joash, the son of Jehoahaz, the son of Jehu, the king of Israel, saying: “Come, let us see one another.”
18 Amma Yowash sarkin Isra’ila ya amsa wa Amaziya sarkin Yahuda ya ce, “Wata ƙaya ce a Lebanon, ta aika da saƙo wa itacen al’ul na Lebanon cewa, ‘Ka ba ɗana’yarka aure.’ Sai wani naman jeji na Lebanon ya zo ya tattake ƙayar.
But he sent back messengers, saying: “The thistle which is in Lebanon sent to the cedar of Lebanon, saying: ‘Give your daughter to my son as wife.’ And behold, the beasts that were in the forest of Lebanon passed through, and they trampled the thistle.
19 Ka ce wa kanka cewa ka ci Edom da yaƙi, yanzu kuwa kana fariya da ɗaga kai. Amma tsaya dai a gida! Me ya sa kake neman faɗa kana neman fāɗuwarka da ta Yahuda?”
You said, ‘I struck down Edom.’ And for this reason, your heart is lifted up with pride. Settle in your own house. Why do you provoke evil against yourself, so that you may fall, and then Judah with you?”
20 Amma Amaziya bai saurara ba gama Allah ya yi haka domin yă miƙa su ga Yehowash, domin sun nemi shawarar allolin Edom.
Amaziah was not willing to listen to him, because it was the will of the Lord that he be delivered into the hands of the enemies, because of the gods of Edom.
21 Saboda haka Yowash sarkin Isra’ila ya kai yaƙi. Shi da Amaziya sarkin Yahuda suka fuskanci juna a Bet-Shemesh a Yahuda.
And so Joash, the king of Israel, ascended, and they presented themselves within the sight of one another. Now Amaziah, the king of Judah, was in Beth-shemesh of Judah.
22 Isra’ila ta fatattaki Yahuda, sai kowane mutum ya gudu zuwa gidansa.
And Judah fell before Israel. And each one fled to his own tent.
23 Yehowash sarkin Isra’ila ya kama Amaziya sarkin Yahuda, ɗan Yowash, ɗan Ahaziya a Bet-Shemesh. Sa’an nan Yehowash ya kawo shi Urushalima ya farfasa katangar Urushalima daga Ƙofar Efraim har zuwa Ƙofar Kusurwa, wani sashe mai tsawon ƙafa ɗari shida.
Then Joash, the king of Israel, captured Amaziah, the king of Judah, the son of Joash, the son of Jehoahaz, at Beth-shemesh, and he led him to Jerusalem. And he destroyed its walls, from the gate of Ephraim as far as the gate of the corner, four hundred cubits.
24 Ya kwashe dukan zinariya da azurfa da dukan kayayyakin da aka samu a haikalin Allah waɗanda suke a ƙarƙashin kulawar Obed-Edom, da kaya masu daraja na gidan sarki, da waɗanda aka kamo cikin yaƙi, ya kawo Samariya.
Also, he brought back to Samaria all the gold and silver, and all the vessels, which he had found in the house of God, and with Obededom in the treasuries of the king’s house, as well as sons for hostages.
25 Amaziya ɗan Yowash sarkin Yahuda ya rayu shekara goma sha biyar bayan mutuwar Yehowash ɗan Yehoyahaz sarkin Isra’ila.
Then Amaziah, the son of Joash, the king of Judah, lived for fifteen years after the death of Joash, the son of Jehoahaz, the king of Israel.
26 Game da sauran ayyukan mulkin Amaziya, daga farko zuwa ƙarshe, an rubuta su a littafin sarakunan Yahuda da Isra’ila.
Now the rest of the words of Amaziah, the first and the last, have been written in the book of the kings of Judah and Israel.
27 Sa’ad da Amaziya ya bar bin Ubangiji, aka shirya masa maƙarƙashiya a Urushalima, sai ya gudu zuwa Lakish, amma suka aiki mutane suka bi shi zuwa Lakish, a can suka kashe shi.
And after he withdrew from the Lord, they set up an ambush against him in Jerusalem. But since he had fled into Lachish, they sent and killed him in that place.
28 Aka dawo da shi a kan doki, aka binne shi tare da kakanninsa a Birnin Yahuda.
And having carried him back upon horses, they buried him with his fathers in the City of David.
