< II Oihanaalii 12 >
1 A PAA ke aupuni o Rehoboama, a ikaika hoi ia, alaila haalele oia i ke kanawai o Iehova, a me ia pu ka Iseraela a pau.
Kwasekusithi uRehobhowamu eseqinise umbuso, eseziqinisile, watshiya umlayo weNkosi, loIsrayeli wonke laye.
2 A i ka lima o ka makahiki o ke alii o Rehoboama, pii mai la o Sisaka, ke alii o Aigupita i Ierusalema, no ka mea, ua lawehala lakou ia Iehova,
Kwasekusithi ngomnyaka wesihlanu wenkosi uRehobhowamu, uShishaki inkosi yeGibhithe wenyuka wamelana leJerusalema, ngoba babephambukile eNkosini,
3 Me na kaa kaua he umikumamalua tausani, a me na hoohololio kanaono tausani, a me na kanaka i pau ole i ka heluia ka poe i hele pu me ia mai Aigupita mai; ka Luba, a me ka Suka, a me ka Kusa.
elezinqola ezingamakhulu alitshumi lambili labagadi bamabhiza abazinkulungwane ezingamatshumi ayisithupha; labantu babengelakubalwa abeza laye bephuma eGibhithe, amaLibiya, amaSukhi, lamaEthiyophiya.
4 Hoopio aku la oia i na kulanakauhale i paa i ka pa ma Iuda, a hiki mai la i Ierusalema.
Wasethumba imizi ebiyelweyo eyayingeyakoJuda weza eJerusalema.
5 Alaila, hele mai o Semaia, ke kaula, io Rehoboama la, a i na 'lii o Iuda i hoakoakoaia ma Ierusalema mai mua mai o Sisaka, i aku la ia lakou, Penei i olelo mai ai o Iehova ia oukou, Ua haalele oukou ia'u, no ia mea, ua haalele aku au ia oukou iloko o ka lima o Sisaka.
UShemaya umprofethi wasefika kuRehobhowamu lezikhulu zakoJuda ezazibuthene eJerusalema ngenxa kaShishaki, wathi kubo: Itsho njalo iNkosi: Lina lingilahlile, ngakho lami ngililahlele esandleni sikaShishaki.
6 Hoohaahaa iho la na kaukaualii o ka Iseraela a me ka Moi ia lakou iho, i iho la, Ua pololei o Iehova.
Iziphathamandla zakoIsrayeli kanye lenkosi basebezithoba bathi: INkosi ilungile.
7 A ike o Iehova, ua hoohaahaa lakou ia lakou iho, hiki mai la ka olelo a Iehova ia Semaia, i mai la, Ua hoohaahaa lakou ia lakou iho; aole au e luku loa ia lakou, e haawi no au ia lakou i wahi maha iki, aole au e ninini i ko'u huhu maluna o Ierusalema ma ka lima o Sisaka.
INkosi isibona ukuthi bazithobile, ilizwi leNkosi lafika kuShemaya lisithi: Bazithobile; kangiyikubabhubhisa, kodwa ngizabanika isilinganiso sokukhululwa, lolaka lwami kaluyikuthululelwa eJerusalema ngesandla sikaShishaki.
8 Aka, e lilo lakou i poe kauwa nana, i ike lakou i ka hookauwa ana na'u, a me ka hookauwa ana na na aupuni o na aina.
Kodwa bazakuba zinceku zakhe ukuze bazi inkonzo yami lenkonzo yemibuso yamazwe.
9 Alaila pii mai la Sisaka ke alii o Aigupita i Ierusalema, a hao iho la i ka waiwai o ka hale o Iehova, a me ka waiwai o ka hale o ke alii, hao iho la oia i na mea a pau; a lawe no hoi i na palekaua gula a Solomona i hana'i.
Ngakho uShishaki inkosi yeGibhithe wenyukela eJerusalema, wathatha okuligugu kwendlu kaJehova lokuligugu kwendlu yenkosi, wathatha konke; wathatha lezihlangu zegolide uSolomoni ayezenzile.
10 A hana ke alii o Rehoboama i mea e pani ai ko laila hakahaka, i na palekaua keleawe, a haawi ia mau mea iloko o ka lima o na luna o ka poe kiai, ka poe i malama i na puka o ka hale o ke alii.
Inkosi uRehobhowamu yasisenza izihlangu zethusi endaweni yazo, yazinikela ngaphansi kwesandla senduna zabalindi ababegcina umnyango wendlu yenkosi.
11 A i na wa a pau a ke alii i komo ai iloko o ka hale o Iehova, komo no ka poe kiai, a lawe mai ia mau mea, a hoihoi aku no hoi ia mau mea iloko o ke keena o ka poe kiai.
Kwasekusithi lapho inkosi ingena endlini kaJehova bafika abalindi bezithwele, bazibuyisela ekamelweni labalindi.
12 A i kona hoohaahaa ana ia ia iho, huli ae la ka huhu o Iehova mai ona aku la, aole i pepehi ia ia a make: a ma ka aina o Iuda, ua maikai no na mea malaila.
Isizithobile, ulaka lweNkosi lwaphenduka lwasuka kuyo ukuze ingayibhubhisi ngokuphelelelyo; futhi lakoJuda kwakulezinto ezinhle.
13 A hookupaaia ke alii ma Ierusalema, a noho alii iho la, no ka mea, he kanahakumamakahi na makahiki o Rehoboama i kona wa i hooalii'i, a noho alii ia i na makahiki he umikumamahiku, ma Ierusalema, ke kulanakauhale a Iehova i wae ai maloko o na ohana a pau o ka Iseraela, e kau mai i kona inoa malaila. A o ka inoa o kona makuwahine, o Naama no ka Amona.
Inkosi uRehobhowamu yasiziqinisa eJerusalema, yabusa. Ngoba uRehobhowamu wayeleminyaka engamatshumi amane lanye lapho esiba yinkosi, wabusa iminyaka elitshumi lesikhombisa eJerusalema, umuzi iNkosi eyayiwukhethile phakathi kwazo zonke izizwe zakoIsrayeli, ukubeka ibizo layo khona. Lebizo likanina lalinguNahama umAmonikazi.
14 A hana oia i ka hewa, no ka mea, aole ia i hoomakaukau i kona naau e imi ia Iehova.
Wasesenza okubi ngoba engalungisanga inhliziyo yakhe ukudinga iNkosi.
15 A o na mea mua a me na mea hope a Rehoboama i hana'i, aole anei i kakauia ia mau mea ma ka palapala a Semaia ke kaula, a me Ido ka mea wanana ma ka palapala kuauhau? A he kaua ia Rehoboama, a me Ieroboama i ko laua mau la a pau loa.
Lendaba zikaRehobhowamu, ezokuqala lezokucina, kazibhalwanga yini ezindabeni zikaShemaya umprofethi lezikaIdo umboni mayelana lemibhalo yosendo, lezimpi zikaRehobhowamu loJerobhowamu zonke izinsuku?
16 A hiamoe iho la o Rehoboama me kona mau kupuna; a ua kanuia oia ma ke kulanakauhale o Davida. A noho alii iho la o Abiia kana keiki mahope ona.
URehobhowamu waselala laboyise, wangcwatshelwa emzini kaDavida. UAbhiya indodana yakhe wasesiba yinkosi esikhundleni sakhe.
