1 Hagi Ra Anumzamo'a kini ne' Ba'asante'ma fore'ma hania zamofo nanekea, kasnampa ne' Hanani nemofo Jehuna anage huno asami'ne,

Ilizwi likaThixo leza kuJehu indodana kaHanani lisongela uBhasha lisithi:

2 Nagra kugusopafinti kavre'na Israeli vahe'ni'a kegava huo hu'noanagi, kagra Jeroboamu'ma hu'nea avu'ava avaririnka Israeli vahera zamazeri kumipi nezmantrenka, Nagrira nazeri narimpa hane.

“Ngakususa othulini ngakwenza umkhokheli wabantu bami bako-Israyeli, kodwa wasuka wahamba ngezindlela zikaJerobhowamu njalo wabangela abantu bami bako-Israyeli ukuthi bone bangithukuthelise ngezono zabo.

3 E'ina hanku Nagra Nebati nemofo Jeroboamu nagate'ma huzmante'noaza hu'na Ba'asagane maka nagaka'anena zamahe hana hugahue.

Ngakho sekufanele ngichithe uBhasha labendlu yakhe, njalo indlu yakho ngizakwenza ifanane lekaJerobhowamu indodana kaNebhathi.

4 Hagi Ba'asampiti'ma fore'ma hanaza vahera rankuma agu'afima fri'nageno'a, kramo'za negahaze. Hagi megi'ama fri'nazana vahera namaramimo'za negahaze.

Bazadliwa yizinja abangabakaBhasha abazafela edolobheni, kanti izinyoni zasemoyeni zizakudla labo abazafela emangweni.”

5 Hagi Ba'asa'ma kinima mani'neno'ma hu'nea zantamine, hanave zantamima tro'ma hu'nea zamofo agenkea Israeli kini vahetmimofo agenkema krenentaza avontafepi krente'ne.

Okunye okumayelana lombuso kaBhasha, akwenzayo lokuphumelela kwakhe, akulotshwanga yini egwalweni lwembali yamakhosi ako-Israyeli?

6 Hagi Ba'asa'ma frigeno'a Tirza kumate asentazageno, nemofo Ela agri nona erino kinia mani'ne.

UBhasha waphumula laboyise wembelwa eThiza. Kwathi u-Ela indodana yakhe yathatha ubukhosi yabusa.

7 Hagi Ra Anumzamo'ma Ba'asane naga'anema hazenke zamisia zamofo nanekea kasnampa ne' Hanani nemofo Jehunte hunte'ne. Na'ankure maka havi avu'ava'ma nehuno, maka'zama tro'ma hu'neazamo Ra Anumzamofona azeri arimpa ahegeno, Jeroboamu naga'ma zamahe fananema hu'neaza huno Ba'asa nagara zamahe fri vagare'ne.

Njalo ilizwi lafika livela kuThixo ngoJehu indodana kaHanani lisiya kuBhasha labendlu yakhe, ngoba kulezono ezinengi ayezenzile emehlweni kaThixo, wamthukuthelisa ngezinto abazenzayo, waze wafanana labendlu kaJerobhowamu kanye lokuthi wayichitha.

8 Hagi kini ne' Asa'ma 26si'a kafuma Juda vahe kinima nemanigeno'a, Ba'asa nemofo Ela'a Israeli vahe kinia efore hu'ne. Hagi Ela'a tare kafu Tirza kumatera kinia mani'neno, Israeli vahera kegava hu'ne.

Ngomnyaka wamatshumi amabili lesithupha wokubusa kuka-Asa inkosi yakoJuda, u-Ela indodana kaBhasha waba yinkosi yako-Israyeli njalo wabusa eThiza okweminyaka emibili.

9 Hianagi karisi eri'za vano nehaza sondia vahera amu'nompinti refko huno kva nehia ne' Zimri'a Ela ahenaku kankamunku hake'ne. Hagi mago zupa Ela'a Tirza kumate mani'neno, noma'ama kegava nehia ne' Arza nompi aka ti neneno neginagi nehigeno,

UZimri, esinye sezikhulu zakhe, owayelawula ingxenye yezinqola zempi, waceba ukumbulala. U-Ela wayeseThiza ngalesosikhathi, esidla edakwa endlini ka-Ariza, indoda eyayiphethe isigodlo saseThiza.

10 Zimri'a eno eme ahe fri'ne. Hagi kini ne' Asa'a 27ni'a kafu Juda vahe kinia nemanigeno, Zimri'a Elana ahe nefrino, agri nona erino Israeli vahe kinia mani'ne.

UZimri wangena, wamtshaya wambulala. Kwakungumnyaka wamatshumi amabili lesikhombisa wokubusa kuka-Asa inkosi yakoJuda. Wasethatha isikhundla sakhe sobukhosi waba yinkosi.

11 Hagi Zimri'ma anama kinima nemanino'a, maka Ba'asa nagapinti'ma fore'ma hu'nea vahera zamahe hana nehuno magore huno ne' mofavrea ozamatre'ne. Ana nehuno maka keonke zaga'ane, rone'araminena magore huno ozamatreno zamahe hana hu'ne.

Uthe eqalisa ukubusa esehlezi esihlalweni sobukhosi, wabulala bonke abendlu kaBhasha. Katshiyanga ndoda noma kuyisihlobo loba kungumngane.

12 Hagi Ra Anumzamo'a Ba'asama hazenkema ami kema kasnampa ne' Jehuma asami'nea kante anteno, maka Ba'asa nagapinti'ma fore'ma hu'naza vahetmina zamahe hana hu'ne.

Ngakho uZimri wabhubhisa bonke abendlu kaBhasha, kwaba njengokwatshiwo nguThixo owasongela uBhasha ngomphrofethi uJehu

13 Na'ankure Ba'asa'ene nemofo Ela'enena kumi nehuke, Israeli vahe'enena zamazeri kumipima nezmantreke, kaza osu havi anumzana tro hunte'neke, mono'ma hunta'azamo'a Ra Anumzamofona azeri arimpa ahe'na'e.

ngenxa yazo zonke izono azenzayo uBhasha lendodana yakhe u-Ela; benza lo-Israyeli wona kwaze kwaqubula uThixo, uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli, wazonda ngenxa yezithombe zabo eziyize.

14 Hagi Ela'ma kinima mani'negeno'ma fore'ma hu'nea zantamine, maka zama agrama hu'nea zamofo agenkea Israeli kini vahetmimofo agenkema krente'naza avontafepi krente'naze.

Ezinye izehlakalo ngombuso ka-Ela, lakho konke akwenzayo, akulotshwanga yini encwadini yembali yamakhosi ako-Israyeli?

15 Hagi kini ne' Asa'ma 27ni'a kafuma Juda vahe kinima nemanigeno, Zimri'a Israeli vahe kinia 7ni'a zagegnafi Tirza kumatera mani'ne. Hagi Israeli sondia vahe'mo'za Filistia vahe kumara Gibetonia avazagigagi'naze.

Ngomnyaka wamatshumi amabili lesikhombisa wokubusa kuka-Asa inkosi yakoJuda, uZimri wabusa eThiza okwensuku eziyisikhombisa. Ibutho lalisenkambeni yaseGibhethoni, idolobho lamaFilistiya.

16 Hagi ana kuma'ma avazagigagi'naza sondia vahe'mo'za Zimri'ma Elama ahea nanekema nentahiza, sondia vahete kva ne' Omrina ana zupage Israeli vahe kinia azeri oti'naze.

Abako-Israyeli bathi sebezwile ukuthi uZimri wakha icebo lokubulala inkosi lakanye wayibulala, babeka u-Omri, umlawuli webutho wahle waba yinkosi yako-Israyeli mhlalokho enkambeni.

17 Hagi ana'ma hutazageno'a, Omri'a Israeli sondia vahera Gibetoni kumateti zamavareno marerino Israeli vahe rankumapi Tirzama mani'naza vahera hara ome huzmante'ne.

U-Omri labo bonke abako-Israyeli bahlehla basuka eGibhethoni bayavimbezela iThiza.

18 Hagi Zimri'ma keama ha'ma eme hu'za ana kuma'ma emerizageno'a, kini ne'mofo nompi ufreno ha'ma hanigeno fraki'naza noma hunaraginte'nefi umaniteno, ana nona teve tagintegeno nereno agri'enena terasge'ne.

UZimri uthe ebona ukuthi idolobho laselithethwe, waya enqabeni yesigodlo senkosi wathungela isigodlo sesikhosini ngomlilo lapho ayekhona. Ngakho wafa,

19 Na'ankure Jeroboamu'ma kumi'ma nehuno, Israeli vahe'ma zamazeri kumipima zmante'neaza huno, agra Ra Anumzamofo avurera kefo avu'ava nehuno, Israeli vahera zamazeri kumipi zamatre'ne.

ngenxa yezono azenzayo, esenza okubi phambi kukaThixo njalo kwakungaselamuntu ohamba ngendlela zikaJerobhowamu lasezonweni ayengene kuzo lalezo ayebangela u-Israyeli ukuba azenze.

20 Hagi Zimri'ma kinima mani'neno'ma hu'nea zantmimofo agenkene, Elama ahenea agenkea Israeli kini vahetmimofo agenkema krenentea avontafepi krente'naze.

Ezinye izehlakalo zokubusa kukaZimri, lomvukela ayewenzile, akulotshwanga na ogwalweni lwembali yamakhosi ako-Israyeli?

21 Hagi ana'ma hazageno'a, Israeli vahe'mo'za tarefi atane'za magokaziga Ginati nemofo Tibni kinia azeri otizageno, mago kagiza Omri avariri'naze.

Kwasekusiba lokudabukana phakathi kwabantu bako-Israyeli, abanye babesekela uThibhini indodana kaGinathi ukuthi abe yinkosi, abanye besekela u-Omri.

22 Hianagi Omrima avaririza hanaveti'za Ginati nemofo Tibnima avariri'naza vahera hara huzmagatere'za, Tibnina ahe nefriza Omrina kinia azeri oti'naze.

Kodwa-ke kwabasobala ukuthi abalandeli baka-Omri bayabakhulela abakaThibhini indodana kaGinathi. Ngakho uThibhini wafa u-Omri waba yinkosi.

23 Hagi kini ne' Asa'ma 31ni'a kafu Juda vahe kinima nemanigeno'a, Omri'a Israeli vahe kinia 12fu'a kafufi mani'ne. Hianagi 6si'a kafufi Tirza kumatera Israeli vahe kinia mani'ne.

Ngomnyaka wamatshumi amathathu lanye ka-Asa inkosi yakoJuda, u-Omri waba yinkosi yako-Israyeli, wabusa okweminyaka elitshumi lambili, eyisithupha yayo eseThiza.

24 Hagi Sameria agona mopamofo nefa Semantetira, Omri'a 70 kilo hu'nea silva zagoreti ana mopa mizaseno rankuma tro huteno, ana mopa agafa ne' agire asamareno, Samarie huno ana kumamofo agi'a ante'ne.

Wathenga uqaqa lwaseSamariya kuShemeri ngamathalenta amabili esiliva njalo wakha idolobho phezu koqaqa lolo walibiza ngokuthi Samariya, elubiza ngoShemeri, owayekade engumnikazi walo.

25 Hagi ko'ma maniza e'naza kini vahetmina Omri'a zamagatereno, rama'a kefo avu'ava Ra Anumzamofo avurera hu'ne.

Kodwa u-Omri wona waba lezono phambi kukaThixo, njalo yena wona okwedlula bonke abamandulelayo.

26 Na'ankure Nebati nemofo Jeroboamu'ma Israeli vahe'ma zamazeri kumipima nezamanteno Ra Anumzana Israeli vahe Anumzamofoma azeri arimpama ahe'nea avu'ava avaririno, Omri'a kaza osu havi anumzantmina tro hunte'neno mono'ma huntea zamo Ra Anumzamofona azeri rimpahe'ne.

Wahamba ngazozonke izindlela zikaJerobhowamu indodana kaNebhathi kanye lasezonweni zakhe, abangela ukuthi u-Israyeli azenze, ngalokho baqubula uThixo, uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli, wazonda ngenxa yezithombe zabo eziyize.

27 Hagi Omri'ma kinima mani'nea knafima fore'ma hu'nea zantamina Israeli kini vahe'mokizmi zamagi zamagenkema krenentaza avontafepi krente'naze.

Okwembali yokubusa kuka-Omri, akwenzayo kanye layephumelele kukho, akulotshwanga na ogwalweni lwembali yamakhosi ako-Israyeli?

28 Hagi Omri'a frigeno Sameria asentazageno, nemofo Ahapu agri nona erino kinia mani'ne.

U-Omri waphumula kuboyise wembelwa eSamariya. Kwathi u-Ahabi indodana yakhe wabusa ngemva kwakhe.

29 Hagi Kini ne' Asa'ma 38'a kafuma Juda vahe kinima nemanigeno'a, Omri nemofo Ahapu Israeli vahe kinia efore huno mani'ne. Hagi Omri nemofo Ahapu'a 22'a kafu Sameria kumatera kinia mani'neno Israeli vahera kegava hu'ne.

Ngomnyaka wamatshumi amathathu lasificaminwembili wokubusa kuka-Asa inkosi yakoJuda, u-Ahabi indodana ka-Omri waba yinkosi yako-Israyeli, njalo wabusa eSamariya kwabako-Israyeli okweminyaka engamatshumi amabili lambili.

30 Hagi ko'ma maniza e'naza kini vahetmina zamagatereno, Omri nemofo Ahapu'a rama'a kefo avu'ava Ra Anumzamofo avurera hu'ne.

U-Ahabi indodana ka-Omri waba lezono ezingaphezu kwalabo abamandulelayo phambi kukaThixo.

31 Hagi Ahapu'a knare navu'nava nehue huno antahi amne nehuno, Nebati nemofo Jeroboamu'ma hu'nea kefo avu'avara agatereno, Saidoni kini ne' Etba'ali mofa' Jesebelina ara omenerino, Bali havi anumzamofonte monora hunte'ne.

Kwathi lanxa ebona kungasilutho ukungena ebubini bukaJerobhowamu indodana kaNebhathi, wathatha uJezebheli indodakazi ka-Ethibhali inkosi yamaSidoni, waseqalisa ukukhonza lokusebenzela uBhali.

32 Hagi Ahapu'a Sameria kumatera Bali havi anumzamofo mono no kino, agu'afina kresramna vu ita tro hunte'ne.

Wakhela uBhali i-alithari ethempelini likaBhali ayelakhe eSamariya.

33 Hagi anantera Asera a' havi anumzamofo amema'ama me' zafarami retru rentetere hu'ne. Hagi e'ina'ma hia zamo'a, ko'ma maniza e'naza kini vahetmimo'zama hu'naza kefo avu'avara agatereno, rama'a kefo avu'ava huno Ra Anumzana Israeli vahe Anumzamofona azeri arimpa ahe'ne.

U-Ahabi wenzela u-Ashera insika njalo kunengi akwenzayo okwathukuthelisa uThixo, uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli, okwedlula wonke amakhosi ako-Israyeli amandulelayo.

34 Hagi Ahapu'ma kinima mani'nea knafi, Beteli kumateti ne' Hieli'a Jeriko kumara ete eri agafa huno ki'ne. Hagi Ra Anumzamo'ma Nuni nemofo Josuama asami'nea kante anteno, ana kuma'ma eri agafa huno negigeno'a, ese mofavre'a Abiramu'a fri'ne. Hagi ana kumama kivagareno, ana kumamofo rankafama hagenentegeno'a, henka mofavre'a Segupu'a fri'ne. (Josua 6:26)

Ngezinsuku zika-Ahabi uHiyeli waseBhetheli wakha kutsha iJerikho. Ukubekwa kwezisekelo zayo kwathatha impilo yezibulo lakhe u-Abhiramu kwathi lasekumiseni amasango alo kwathatha impilo yecinathunjana lakhe uSegubi, kwagcwaliseka ilizwi likaThixo ayelikhulume ngoJoshuwa indodana kaNuni.
