5 Mgbe ahụ, Rezin eze Aram na Peka nwa Remalaya, eze Izrel rigooro ịga buso Jerusalem agha, gbakwaa Ehaz gburugburu. Ma ha emerighị ya nʼagha.
Afei, Aramhene Resin ne Israelhene Peka tuu sa wɔ Ahas so. Wɔkɔtuaa Yerusalem, nanso wɔanni so nkonim.
6 Nʼoge ahụ, Rezin eze Aram dọtaghachiri obodo Elat nye onwe ya, site na ị chụpụ ndị Juda bi nʼElat. Ndị Edọm bara nʼobodo Elat, ha bikwa nʼebe ahụ ruo taa.
Saa ɛberɛ no, Edomhene gyee Elat kuro maa Edom. Ɔpamoo Yudafoɔ, na ɔmaa Edomfoɔ no kɔtenaa hɔ, sɛdeɛ ɛte ɛnnɛ yi.
7 Ehaz zigara ndị ozi ka ha gaa zie Tiglat-Pilesa, eze ndị Asịrịa ozi, sị ya, “Abụ m ohu gị, onyenwe m ka ị bụ. Bịa napụta m site nʼaka eze ndị Aram na eze ndị Izrel, ndị na-ebuso m agha.”
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 Ehaz weere ọlaedo na ọlaọcha ahụtara nʼime ụlọnsọ ukwu Onyenwe anyị, na nke dị nʼakụ niile dị nʼụlọeze zigara eze Asịrịa dịka onyinye.
Na Ahas faa dwetɛ ne sikakɔkɔɔ firii Awurade Asɔredan mu hɔ, faa ahemfie hɔ sika de kyɛɛ Asiriahene no.
9 Eze ndị Asịrịa ṅara ya ntị site nʼibuso obodo Damaskọs agha na imeri ya. O gburu Rezin, bulaa mmadụ niile bi nʼime ya nʼike ka ha gaa biri nʼobodo Kia.
Enti, Asiriafoɔ no kɔtuaa Aramfoɔ no wɔ wɔn kuropɔn Damasko mu, kyekyeree ɛhɔfoɔ no nnommum, de wɔn kɔ kɔtenaa Kir. Wɔkumm ɔhene Resin.
10 Mgbe eze Ehaz gara Damaskọs izute Tiglat-Pilesa bụ eze Asịrịa. Ọ hụrụ otu ebe nchụaja nke dị na Damaskọs. O zigaara Ụraya onye nchụaja oyiyi ebe ịchụ aja ahụ. O dekwara ihe gbasara ya nʼakwụkwọ, nke ga-akọwa otu e si ewu ya.
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 Ya mere, Ụraya onye nchụaja, wuru ebe ịchụ aja nke dị ka nke ahụ Ehaz hụrụ na Damaskọs. O wuchara ya tupu eze alọta.
Uria nam ɔhene no asɛm so yɛɛ saa afɔrebukyia no bi pɛpɛɛpɛ, na ɛberɛ a ɔfiri Damasko baeɛ no, na wɔayɛ awie.
12 Mgbe eze si Damaskọs lọta na Juda, ọ hụrụ ebe ịchụ aja ahụ, bịaruo ya nso, doo onyinye ịchụ aja ya nʼelu ya.
Ɔhene no firi Damasko baeɛ no, ɔhwɛɛ afɔrebukyia no ho hyiaeɛ, bɔɔ so afɔdeɛ.
13 Ọ chụrụ aja nsure ọkụ, na aja ihe nsure ọkụ na-esi isi ụtọ, na aja onyinye mkpụrụ ọka. Ọ wụkwasịrị onyinye ihe ọṅụṅụ nʼelu ebe ịchụ aja ahụ, fesakwa ọbara aja udo ya niile nʼelu ebe ịchụ aja ahụ.
Ɔhene no bɔɔ ɔhyeɛ afɔdeɛ ne atokoɔ afɔdeɛ, hwiee nsã afɔdeɛ guu so, na ɔpetee asomdwoeɛ afɔdeɛ ho mogya guu so.
14 O wepụrụ ebe ịchụ aja bronz nke dị nʼihu Onyenwe anyị, o sitere nʼebe ọ dị nʼihu ụlọnsọ ahụ, nʼetiti ebe ịchụ aja ọhụrụ na ụlọnsọ ukwu Onyenwe anyị, bute ya nʼakụkụ ugwu nke ebe ịchụ aja ọhụrụ ya.
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 Eze Ehaz nyere Ụraya, bụ onyeisi nchụaja iwu, sị, “Ọ bụ nʼelu ebe ịchụ aja ọhụrụ a ka ị ga na-esure aja nsure ọkụ ụtụtụ niile, na onyinye mkpụrụ ọka nke uhuruchi niile, na aja nsure ọkụ eze, na onyinye mkpụrụ ọka nke eze, na aja na onyinye nke ndị niile nʼala a, ya na onyinye mkpụrụ ọka ha niile na onyinye ihe ọṅụṅụ ha niile.

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 Ụraya onye nchụaja mere ihe niile dịka eze Ehaz nyere ya nʼiwu.
Na ɔsɔfoɔ Uria yɛɛ deɛ ɔhene Ahas ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ ɔnyɛ no pɛpɛɛpɛ.
17 Eze bụ Ehaz wepụrụ ihe njikọ niile jikọrọ ihe ndọkwasị ahụ niile a na-ebugharị ebugharị. O wepụrụ efere ukwu ịdọba mmiri a dọkwasịrị nʼelu ehi ọla ahụ dị nʼokpuru ya, ma dọkwasị ya nʼelu nkume.
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 Nʼihi imekwa ka obi tọọ eze Asịrịa ụtọ, o wepụrụ ụzọ a na-esite maka ụbọchị izuike nke e wuru nʼime ụlọnsọ, na ụzọ mbata eze si abanye nʼụlọnsọ ukwu Onyenwe anyị.
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 Ma banyere ihe ndị ọzọ niile mere nʼoge ọchịchị Ehaz, na ihe ndị o mere, ọ bụ na e deghị ha nʼakwụkwọ akụkọ ihe mere nʼoge ndị eze Juda?
Ahas ahennie ho nsɛm nkaeɛ no ne dwuma ahodoɔ a ɔdiiɛ no, wɔatwerɛ agu Yuda Ahemfo Abakɔsɛm Nwoma no mu.
20 Ehaz soro nna nna ya ha dina nʼọnwụ, e lie ya nʼebe e liri ha nʼobodo Devid. Hezekaya nwa ya ghọrọ eze nʼọnọdụ ya.
Ɛberɛ a Ahas wuiɛ no, wɔsiee no ne mpanimfoɔ nkyɛn wɔ Dawid kuro mu. Na ne babarima Hesekia bɛdii nʼadeɛ sɛ ɔhene.
