1 Awo Yekosafaati kabaka wa Yuda n’akomawo mirembe mu lubiri lwe mu Yerusaalemi.
Ɛberɛ a ɔhene Yehosafat duruu ne fie wɔ Yerusalem asomdwoeɛ mu no,
2 Yeeku, Omulabi, mutabani wa Kanani n’agenda okumusisinkana, n’agamba Yekosafaati nti, “Kituufu ggwe okuyamba ababi, ate n’okukolagana n’abo abakyawa Mukama? Olw’ekikolwa ekyo, obusungu bwa Mukama kyebuvudde bukubuubukirako.
Hanani babarima Yehu, ɔdehunumuni no kɔhyiaa no. Ɔbisaa ɔhene Yehosafat sɛ, “Adɛn enti na woboa amumuyɛfoɔ, na wodɔ wɔn a wɔkyiri Awurade? Deɛ woayɛ yi de Awurade abufuo aba wo so.
3 Kyokka mu ggwe mulimu ebirungi, kubanga wazikiriza Baaserosi n’obaggya mu nsi, n’omalirira mu mutima gwo okunoonya Katonda.”
Nanso, ade pa bi wɔ wo mu ɛfiri sɛ woatutu Asera afɔrebukyia a ɛwɔ asase no so nyinaa, na woatu wo ho asi hɔ sɛ wobɛhwehwɛ Onyankopɔn.”
4 Awo Yekosafaati n’abeeranga mu Yerusaalemi, n’addayo eri abantu okuva e Beeruseba okutuuka mu Efulayimu mu nsi ey’ensozi, bonna n’abakomyawo eri Mukama, Katonda wa bajjajjaabwe.
Na Yehosafat tenaa Yerusalem. Nanso, ɔtuu kwan firii Beer-Seba kɔɔ Efraim bepɔ asase no so, kɔhyɛɛ nkurɔfoɔ nkuran sɛ, wɔnsane nkɔ Awurade, wɔn agyanom Onyankopɔn no nkyɛn.
5 N’alonda abalamuzi mu nsi, ne mu buli kibuga kya Yuda ekiriko Bbugwe.
Ɔyiyii atemmufoɔ wɔ nkuropɔn a wɔabɔ ho ban wɔ ɔman no mu nyinaa,
6 N’abategeeza nti, “Mufumiitirize nnyo ku bye mukola, kubanga temulamula ku bw’abantu wabula ku bwa Mukama, abeera nammwe buli bwe musala omusango.
hyɛɛ wɔn sɛ, “Atɛn biara a mobɛbu no ɛberɛ biara no, monnwene ho yie. Monkae sɛ, moremmu atɛn sɛ mode resɔ nnipa ani, na mmom, Awurade ani. Ɔbɛka mo ho wɔ asɛm biara a ɛba mo anim a ɛsɛ sɛ mobu ho atɛn no.
7 Noolwekyo entiisa ya Mukama ebeere mu mmwe, musale omusango nga mugwekanyizza bulungi, kubanga Mukama Katonda waffe takkiriziganya na butali butuukirivu, era tewali kusosola mu bantu wadde okulya enguzi.”
Monsuro Awurade, na mommu atɛntenenee, ɛfiri sɛ, Awurade, mo Onyankopɔn, kyiri ntɛnkyea, animhwɛ ne kɛtɛasehyɛ.”
8 Ate ne mu Yerusaalemi Yekosafaati yalonda abamu ku Baleevi, ne bakabona, n’emitwe gy’ennyumba za Isirayiri okulamulanga ku bwa Mukama, n’okusalangawo ensonga enzibu.
Na Yehosafat yii Lewifoɔ, asɔfoɔ ne mmusua ntuanofoɔ a wɔwɔ Israel no ma wɔsomm sɛ atemmufoɔ wɔ Yerusalem. Na wɔdi Awurade mmara mu nsɛm ne efie ntawantawa nsɛm nso.
9 N’abakuutira ng’agamba nti, “Mukole nga mutya Mukama, n’obwesigwa era n’omutima gumu.
Ɔhyɛɛ wɔn sɛ, “Daa, momfa Awurade nyamesuro, nokorɛdie ne adwene pa nyɛ mo adwuma.
10 Bwe wanaabangawo ensonga evudde eri baganda bammwe okuva mu bibuga byabwe, ng’ekwata ku kuyiwa omusaayi, oba ku nsonga endala yonna ekwata ku kiragiro, ku mateeka oba ku biragiro, munaabalabulanga obutayonoona Mukama, obusungu bwe muleme okubatuukako mmwe ne baganda bammwe. Bwe mutyo bwe munaakolanga muleme okubaako omusango.
Ɛberɛ biara a asɛm bi a ɛfiri mo nkurɔfoɔ a wɔwɔ nkurotoɔ yi so bɛba mo anim no, sɛ ɛyɛ awudie anaa Onyankopɔn mmara anaa nʼahyɛdeɛ so buo no, mommɔ wɔn kɔkɔ sɛ, wɔnnyɛ bɔne ntia Awurade, sɛdeɛ ɛbɛyɛ a, nʼabufuo mma mo ne wɔn so. Monyɛ saa, na morenni fɔ.
11 “Era Amaliya kabona asinga obukulu y’anaababeerangako n’obuvunaanyizibwa mu nsonga zonna eza Mukama, ate Zebadiya mutabani wa Isimayiri omukulu ow’ekika kya Yuda ye n’avunaanyizibwanga mu nsonga zonna eza kabaka, era n’Abaleevi banaaweerezanga ng’abaami mu maaso gammwe. Mube n’obuvumu, era Mukama abeere n’abo abakola obutuukirivu.”
“Ɔsɔfopanin Amaria bɛyɛ mo panin, na ɔkasa a obi nka bi bio wɔ nsɛm a ɛfa Awurade ho nyinaa. Ismael babarima Sebadia nso na ɔtua Yuda abusuakuo ano no. Ɔkasa a, obi nka bi bio wɔ ntawantawasɛm nyinaa mu. Lewifoɔ no na wɔbɛboa mo ama moabu atɛntenenee. Momfa akokoɔduru nni mo dwuma, na Awurade nka wɔn a wɔyɛ ade tenenee ho.”
