UAhazi wayeleminyaka engamatshumi amabili esiba yinkosi; wabusa iminyaka elitshumi lesithupha eJerusalema. Kodwa kenzanga okuqondileyo emehlweni eNkosi, njengoDavida uyise.

2 Hianagi agra ko'ma Israeli kini vahe'mo'zama hu'naza zamavu'zamava nezmavaririno, Bali havi anumzante'ma mono'ma hunte'naza zana ainireti kremramra huno amema'a tro hunte'ne.

Ngoba wahamba ezindleleni zamakhosi akoIsrayeli, wasesenzela oBhali izithombe ezibunjwe ngokuncibilikisa.

3 Hagi ana mopafima mani'naza vahe'ma Ra Anumzamo'ma zamahekasopetreno Israeli vahe'ma mopazmima erizmi'nea vahetmimofo kefo hi'mnage avu'ava huno Ahasi'a Hinomu agupofi ofa nehuno, ne' mofavre naga'anena zamaheno tevefi Kresramana vu'ne.

Yena watshisa impepha esihotsheni sendodana kaHinomu, watshisa lamadodana akhe emlilweni, njengokwamanyala ezizwe iNkosi eyazixotsha elifeni phambi kwabantwana bakoIsrayeli.

4 Hagi Ahasi'a havi anumzama mono'ma hunentaza agona kumatmimpine, zafa agafafine, havi anumzamofontera ofa nehuno, mnanentake zana kremna vu'ne.

Wanikela imihlatshelo watshisa impepha endaweni eziphakemeyo laphezu kwamaqaqa langaphansi kwaso sonke isihlahla esiluhlaza.

5 E'ina higeno Ra Anumza agri Anumzamo'a Siria kini ne'mofo azampi Ahasina avrentegeno hara hu agatereno, rama'a vahekrerfa kina huzmanteno zamavareno Damaskasi kumate ome nezmantegeno, ana zanke huno Ra Anumzamo'a Israeli kini ne'mofo azampi Ahasina avrentegeno hara hunteno, rama'a sondia vahe'a hazenkea zami'ne.

Ngakho iNkosi uNkulunkulu wakhe yamnikela esandleni senkosi yeSiriya; asemtshaya, athumba kuye abathunjiweyo abanengi, abasa eDamaseko. Futhi wanikelwa esandleni senkosi yakoIsrayeli eyamtshaya ngokutshaya okukhulu.

6 Hagi Israeli kini ne' Remalia nemofo Peka'a magoke knafina, 120tauseni'a koro osu hankavenentake Juda sondia vahetmina zamahe fri'ne. Na'ankure zamagra Ra Anumzana zamagehe'i Anumzamofona zamefi humi'nazagu anara hu'ne.

Ngoba uPheka indodana kaRemaliya wabulala koJuda abazinkulungwane ezilikhulu lamatshumi amabili ngasuku lunye, bonke bengamadoda alamandla, ngoba babeyidelile iNkosi uNkulunkulu waboyise.

7 Hagi kini ne'mofona mofavre'a Maseiama, kini ne'mofo kuma'ma kegavama hu'nea sondia ne' Azrika'ma, kini ne'mofoma eme amefi'ma hu'neno'ma vahe'ma kegavama nehia ne' Elkananena, maka magoke kna zupage Efraemi kumateti harafa sondia ne' Zikri'a zamahe vagare'ne.

UZikiri iqhawe lakoEfrayimi wasebulala uMahaseya indodana yenkosi loAzirikamu umphathi wendlu loElkana owesibili enkosini.

8 Hagi Israeli sondia vahe'mo'za Juda vahera zamafuhe'i a'nene, ne' mofavreramine, mofa'nezminena 200tauseni'a zamavare'za, ha'pinti'ma eri'za zantamina tusi zantamine eri'za Sameria rankumate vu'naze.

Abantwana bakoIsrayeli basebethumba kubafowabo abazinkulungwane ezingamakhulu amabili, abesifazana, amadodana, lamadodakazi; baphanga lempango enengi kibo, bayiletha impango eSamariya.

9 Hianagi Ra Anumzamofo kasnampa ne' Odeti'a ana Israeli sondia vahetmima hateti'ma Sameria kumate'ma neaza vahetmina amanage huno ome zamasami'ne, Keho, Ra Anumzana tamagehe'i Anumzamo'a Juda vahekura tusi arimpa ahenezmanteno, zamavare tamazampina antegeta zamaheta hara huzmagateraze. Hianagi tamasunkura osu kefo'za huta zamahazageno ana zamo'a Anumzamofo avure vigeno keno antahino hu'ne.

Kodwa kwakukhona lapho umprofethi weNkosi obizo lakhe lalinguOdedi; wasephuma phambi kwebutho elalisiza eSamariya, wathi kibo: Khangelani, ngenxa yolaka lweNkosi uNkulunkulu waboyihlo phezu kukaJuda, ibanikele esandleni senu; libabulele-ke ngolaka olufinyelele emazulwini.

10 Ana huteta menina Juda kumate'ma nemaniza vene'nene a'nanene Jerusalemi kumate vene'nene a'nanena kazokzo vahe zamazeri tro hunaku tamagesa nentahize. Hianagi tamagra'enena Ra Anumzana tamagri Anumzamofo avurera kumi hu'naze.

Khathesi-ke lina lithi lehlisela ngaphansi kwenu abantwana bakoJuda labeJerusalema babe yizigqili lezigqilikazi. Kodwa lina kakulamacala yini kini amelene leNkosi uNkulunkulu wenu?

11 Hagi menia ke'ni'a antahita kinama huzmanteta zamavaretama aza tamafu tamagnana ete huzmantenke'za viho. Na'ankure menina Ra Anumzamo'a e'inahu tamavutamavama haza zankura tusi arimpa aheramante'ne.

Ngakho-ke ngilalelani; libuyisele abathunjiweyo elibathumbe kubafowenu, ngoba ukuvutha kolaka lweNkosi kuphezu kwenu.

12 Anankema nehigeno'a, Efraemi kva vahetmima, Jehonani nemofo Asaria'ma, Mesilemoti nemofo Berekaia'ma, Salumu nemofo Jehizkaia'ma, Hadlai nemofo Amasa'ma hu'za kasnampa ne'mofo kerera mago zamarimpa hute'za oti'za,

Kwasekusukuma amadoda kunhloko zabantwana bakoEfrayimi, oAzariya indodana kaJohanani, uBerekiya indodana kaMeshilemothi, loJehizikiya indodana kaShaluma, loAmasa indodana kaHadilayi, bamelana lalabo ababengena bevela ebuthweni.

13 ana sondia vahetminkura amanage hu'naze, tamagra kinama huzmanteta zmavreta aza vahetmina zamavareta amarera omegahaze. Na'ankure Ra Anumzamofo avurera kumitimo'a ko marerino ra hu'neanki, mago'ene erinte agofetu huta kumira nehazageno, Israeli vahe'mota Ra Anumzamo'a tusi arimpa ahenerante.

Basebesithi kibo: Kaliyikungenisa abathunjiweyo lapha kube licala eNkosini limelene lathi; ngoba lina lithi lizakwengeza ezonweni zethu lemacaleni ethu, ngoba isiphambeko sethu sikhulu, lokuvutha kolaka kuphezu kukaIsrayeli.

14 Anage hazage'za ana sondia vahe'mo'za kinama huzmante'za zamavare'za aza vahetmina, ana kva vahetmimofo zamavugane, vahe'mokizmi zamavuga eme nezmatre'za, hapinti'ma eri'za aza zantaminena maka eme ante'naze.

Ngakho abahlomileyo batshiya abathunjiweyo lempango phambi kweziphathamandla lebandla lonke.

15 Hagi sondia vahe'mo'za ha'pinti'ma eri'za e'naza kukenaramine, zamaga nonena ana kva vahetmimo'za e'za emeri'za zamavufaga zamavapama zamavare'za e'naza kina vahetmina zamizage'za kukena nehazageno, nezane tinena zamizage'za nenazage'za zamavufagama tga hunerera masavena frezmante'naze. Ana hute'za kama vuga'ma osaza vahetmina, donki agumpi zamavarenente'za amne vahe'enena zamavare'za zamafuhe'zama mani'narega tofenke kumapi Jeriko kumate ome zamatrete'za, ete Sameria kumate e'naze.

Lamadoda abizwa ngamabizo asukuma, abamba abathunjiweyo, agqokisa bonke ababenqunu babo ngokuvela empangweni; yebo abagqokisa, abafaka amanyathela, abanika ukudla, abanathisa, abagcoba, athwala bonke ababuthakathaka ngabobabhemi, abasa eJeriko, umuzi wamalala, duze labafowabo; basebebuyela eSamariya.

16 Hagi ana knafina kini ne' Ahasi'a Asiria kini netega eme aza hinogu kea atre'ne.

Ngalesosikhathi inkosi uAhazi yathuma emakhosini eAsiriya ukumncedisa.

17 Hagi Edomu vahe'mo'za ete mago'ane Juda vahera hara eme huzmante'za hara huzmagatere'za kina huzmante'za zamavare'za vu'naze.

Ngoba amaEdoma ayesebuye atshaya uJuda, athumba abathunjwa.

18 Hagi Filistia vahe'mo'za Juda agonaramimofo agafine, Negevi kazigama me'nea kumatmina arohu eme zamare'za, Bet-semesi kumapi vahetamine, Aijaloni kumapi vahetamine, Gederoti kumapi vahetamine, Soko kumapima nemaniza vahe'ene tavaonte'ma megagi'nea kumatmimpi vahetamine, Timna kuma'ma, tavaonte'ma megagi'nea kumatmimpi vahetamine, Gimzo kuma'ma, tavaonte'ma megagi'nea kumapi vahetamine maka ha eme huzmante'za zamahe'za hanare'za, ana kumatamimpi mani'naze.

LamaFilisti ayehlasele imizi yesihotsha leningizimu yakoJuda, athumba iBeti-Shemeshi, leAjaloni, leGederothi, leSoko lemizana yayo, leTimina lemizana yayo, leGimizo lemizana yayo; ahlala khona.

19 Kini ne' Ahasi'ma hia avu'avaku huno Ra Anumzamo'a Juda vahera zamazeri anterami'ne. Na'ankure agra hige'za Juda vahe'mo'za kefo kumi avu'avara nehu'za, Ra Anumzamofona zamagu'aretira huza amagera onte'za zamefi humi'naze.

Ngoba iNkosi yamthobisa uJuda ngenxa kaAhazi inkosi yakoIsrayeli, ngoba wamenza ze uJuda, wasephambuka kakhulu eNkosini.

20 E'ina hu'negu Asiria kini ne' Tiglat-Pilesa'a eme aza hugaragi hara eme hunte'ne.

Ngakho uTiligathi-Pileseri inkosi yeAsiriya wafika kuye, wamhlupha, kodwa kamqinisanga.

21 Ahasi'a agra nompinti'ene, eri'za vahe'aramimofo nompinti'ene, Ra Anumzamofo mono nompintira zago'amo'ma marerinea zantamina erino Asiria kini nera takisia eme ami'neanagi, ana zama hia zamo'a aza osu'ne.

Ngoba uAhazi wathatha isabelo sendlu kaJehova lesendlu yenkosi leseziphathamandla, wasipha inkosi yeAsiriya; kodwa kayimsizanga.

22 Hagi Ahasi'ma ana hazenke knafima mani'neno'a, Anumzamofona antahinomino mago'ane kefo avu'avara nehuno, Ra Anumzamofontera mani fatgo osu'ne.

Ngesikhathi sohlupho lwakhe wengeza-ke ekuphambekeni emelene loJehova. Le yinkosi uAhazi.

23 Hagi Ahasi'a huno, Damaskasi kini vahetmima zamazama hige'za ha'ma hunagatere'naza havi anumzantaminte ofa kresramana vanuge'za nagrira naza hugahaze, nehuno ana havi anumzante ofa kresramana vu'ne. Hianagi agra zante hazenkea avreno egeno, mika Israeli vahe'mo'zanena hazenkefi ufre'naze.

Ngoba wahlabela onkulunkulu beDamaseko ababemtshayile, wathi: Ngoba onkulunkulu bamakhosi eSiriya bayawasiza, ngizahlabela bona ukuze bangisize. Kodwa bona baba yimbangela yokuwa kwakhe, kuye lakuIsrayeli wonke.

24 Hagi Ahasi'a Anumzamofo mono nompinti kavo zuomparamina erino emeri atru huteno, takoraku hunetreno Ra Anumzamofo mono no kafana ahe ankaninereno, Jerusalemi kumapina maka kaziga havi anumzante'ma Kresramanama vu ita tro hu'ne.

UAhazi waseqoqa izitsha zendlu kaNkulunkulu, waziquma iziqa izitsha zendlu kaNkulunkulu, wavala iminyango yendlu yeNkosi, wazenzela amalathi kuyo yonke ingonsi eJerusalema.

25 Hagi Juda mopafima me'nea ranra kumatamimpina havi anumzantaminte'ma ofama hanaza kumatami'ma troma huntetere'ma hiazamo higeno, Ra Anumzana agehe'i Anumzamo'a tusi arimpa ahente'ne.

Lakuwo wonke umuzi ngomuzi wakoJuda wenza indawo eziphakemeyo zokutshisela abanye onkulunkulu impepha, wayithukuthelisa iNkosi uNkulunkulu waboyise.

26 Hagi Ahasi'ma kinima agafa huno mani'nereti'ma vuno ome vagare'nea knafima maka zama hu'nea zamofo agenkea, mika Juda kini vahe'ene, Israeli kini vahetmimofo zamagenkema krenentaza avontafepi krente'naze.

Ezinye-ke zezindaba zakhe lazo zonke indlela zakhe, ezokuqala lezokucina, khangela, zibhaliwe egwalweni lwamakhosi akoJuda lawakoIsrayeli.

27 Hagi Ahasi'a frige'za Jerusalemi rankumapi asente'naze. Na'ankure avufga'a eri'za kini vahe'tmimofo matipina ome ase onte'naze. Hagi anama hutegeno'a, nemofo Hezekai'a agri nona erino kinia mani'ne.

UAhazi waselala laboyise, basebemngcwabela emzini, eJerusalema; kodwa kabamlethanga emangcwabeni amakhosi akoIsrayeli. UHezekhiya indodana yakhe wasesiba yinkosi esikhundleni sakhe.
