2 Ebyomumirembe 25

1 Amaziya yalina emyaka amakumi abiri mu etaano we yafuukira kabaka, era n’afugira emyaka amakumi abiri mu mwenda mu Yerusaalemi. Nnyina ye yali Yekoyadaani ow’e Yerusaalemi.

Amasia dii ɔhene no, na wadi mfirinhyia aduonu enum, na ɔdii adeɛ mfirinhyia aduonu nkron wɔ Yerusalem. Na ne maame din de Yehoadan a ɔfiri Yerusalem.

2 N’akola ebirungi mu maaso ga Mukama, naye si na mutima ogutuukiridde.

Amasia yɛɛ deɛ ɛtene wɔ Awurade ani, nanso na ɛmfiri nʼakoma nyinaa mu.

3 Obwakabaka bwe bwanywezebwa mu buyinza bwe, n’atta abakungu abatta kabaka kitaawe.

Ɛberɛ a Amasia timiiɛ wɔ nʼahennie mu yie no, ɔkunkumm mmarima a wɔkumm nʼagya no.

4 Naye n’atatta baana baabwe, wabula n’akola ng’etteeka mu kitabo kya Musa, Mukama we yalagira nti, “Abazadde tebattibwenga olw’ekibi ky’abaana baabwe, so n’abaana tebattibwenga olw’ekibi ky’abazadde baabwe, naye buli muntu anaafanga olw’ekibi kye ye.”

Nanso, wankunkum awudifoɔ no mma, ɛfiri sɛ, ɔtiee Awurade ahyɛdeɛ a wɔatwerɛ wɔ Mose mmara nwoma no mu no sɛ: Ɛnsɛ sɛ wɔkunkum awofoɔ wɔ wɔn mma bɔne a wɔayɛ enti, anaa wɔkunkum mma wɔ awofoɔ bɔne a wɔayɛ enti. Wɔn a wɔsɛ owuo no, ɛsɛ sɛ wɔkum wɔn wɔ wɔn nnebɔne enti.

5 Amaziya n’akuŋŋaanya abasajja ba Yuda, n’abategeka mu nnyiriri z’ennyumba zaabwe, nga baduumirwa ab’enkumi n’ab’ebikumi mu Yuda yonna ne mu Benyamini. N’oluvannyuma n’abala abo abaalina emyaka amakumi abiri n’okusingawo, ne baba abasajja emitwalo amakumi asatu, abaali basobola okugenda mu lutalo, era nga bayinza n’okukwata effumu n’ekitala.

Ade foforɔ a Amasia yɛeɛ ne sɛ, ɔyɛɛ nhyehyɛeɛ foforɔ wɔ akodɔm no mu, de ntuanofoɔ tuatuaa Yuda ne Benyamin mmusua no mu biara ano. Afei, ɔkanee wɔn hunuu sɛ nʼakodɔm no dodoɔ ano si mmarima ɔpehasa a ɛyɛ wɔn a wɔadi mfeɛ aduonu rekorɔ, na wɔatete wɔn nyinaa wɔ peatoɔ ne nkataboɔkura mu.

6 Ate era n’agulayo n’abasajja abalala ab’amaanyi nga bazira emitwalo kkumi okuva mu Isirayiri, olwa ttani ssatu ne bisatu byakuna ebya ffeeza.

Ɔsane tuaa dwetɛ tɔno 3.4 sɛ apaabɔdeɛ maa Israel mmarima ɔpeha a wɔnim akodie yie.

7 Naye ne wabaawo omusajja wa Katonda eyagenda gy’ali n’amugamba nti, “Ayi kabaka, tokkiriza eggye lya Isirayiri okugenda naawe, kubanga Mukama tali wamu ne Isirayiri, talina n’omu gwali naye ku bantu ba Efulayimu.

Nanso, Onyankopɔn onipa baa ɔhene no nkyɛn bɛkaa sɛ, “Ao ɔhene, ntua sika mfa akodɔm mfiri Israel, ɛfiri sɛ, Awurade nka Israel ho. Ɔremmoa saa nnipa a wɔfiri Efraim no.

8 Ate ne bw’onoogenda ng’olowooza nti oli muzira nnyo mu ntalo, Katonda alikuwaayo mu maaso g’omulabe, kubanga Katonda alina obuyinza okuyamba, n’okulekerera.”

Sɛ woma wɔkɔka wʼakodɔm ho kɔ ɔko, na moko sɛ ɛdeɛn ara a, wɔbɛdi mo so nkonim. Onyankopɔn bɛtu mo agu, ɛfiri sɛ, ɔwɔ tumi sɛ ɔboa anaa ɔsɛe.”

9 Awo Amaziya n’abuuza omusajja wa Katonda nti, “Naye tunaakola tutya ku bya ttani esatu n’ebisatu byakuna ebya ffeeza ze nasasula eggye lya Isirayiri?” Omusajja wa Katonda n’addamu nti, “Mukama ayinziza ddala okukuwa n’ebisinga ku ebyo.”

Amasia bisaa Onyankopɔn onipa no sɛ, “Na dwetɛ a metua kɔbɔɔ Israel akodɔm paa no nso menyɛ no ɛdeɛn?” Onyankopɔn onipa no buaa sɛ, “Awurade bɛtumi ama wo deɛ ɛsene sei koraa.”

10 Awo Amaziya n’alagira eggye eryali lizze gy’ali okuva mu Efulayimu okuddayo ewaabwe waalyo. Ne banyiigira nnyo Yuda, era ne baddayo ewaabwe nga banyiize nnyo.

Enti, Amasia pɔnn akodɔm a ɔbɔɔ wɔn paa no, maa wɔsane kɔɔ Efraim. Yei maa wɔn bo fuu Yuda, na wɔsane de abufuhyeɛ kɔɔ efie.

11 Amaziya ne yeefungiza, n’akulembera abantu be, n’agenda mu kiwonvu eky’omunnyo n’atta abasajja omutwalo gumu ab’e Seyiri.

Na Amasia sii ne bo, dii nʼakodɔm anim, kɔɔ Nkyene Bɔnhwa no mu. Ɛhɔ na wɔkumm Edomfoɔ akodɔm a wɔfiri Seir no ɔpedu.

12 Eggye lya Yuda ne liwamba n’abasajja abalala omutwalo gumu nga balamu, ne babatwala waggulu ku lwazi, ne babasuula wansi okuva ku bbangabanga, ne basesebbuka ebifiififi.

Wɔkyekyeree ɔpedu bio de wɔn kɔɔ abotan tenten bi atifi, kɔsunsumm wɔn ma wɔbɛhwee abotan a ɛwɔ bepɔ no ase no so, tetee pasapasa.

13 Naye eggye liri Amaziya lye yasindika okuddayo, n’ataliganya kugenda naye mu lutalo; lyalumba ebibuga bya Yuda okuva e Samaliya okutuuka e Besukolooni, ne litta abantu enkumi ssatu ku bo, era ne litwala n’omunyago mungi.

Na akodɔm a Amasia kɔbɔɔ wɔn paa a ɔma wɔsane kɔeɛ no tohyɛɛ Yuda nkuro bebree a ɛwɔ Samaria ne Bet-Horon ntam no so. Wɔkunkumm nnipa mpensa, tasee asadeɛ bebree.

14 Awo Amaziya bwe yakomawo ng’amaze okutta Abayedomu, n’aleeta bakatonda b’abantu ab’e Seyiri, n’abassaawo nga bakatonda be, n’abasinzanga, era n’abaweerangayo ebiweebwayo ebyokebwa.

Ɛberɛ a ɔhene Amasia dii Edomfoɔ so a ɔreba no, ɔde ahoni a ɔtase firii Seirfoɔ nkyɛn kaa ne ho baeɛ. Ɔde wɔn sisii hɔ sɛ ɔno ankasa anyame, kotoo wɔn anim, bɔɔ afɔdeɛ maa wɔn.

15 Obusungu bwa Mukama kyebwava bubuubuukira ku Amaziya, n’amuweereza nnabbi, eyamutegeeza nti, “Lwaki ogoberera bakatonda b’abantu, abataayinza kulokola bantu baabwe mu mukono gwo?”

Yei hyɛɛ Awurade abufuo yie enti, ɔsomaa odiyifoɔ sɛ ɔnkɔbisa sɛ, “Adɛn enti na wosom anyame a mpo wɔntumi nnye wɔn ankasa nkurɔfoɔ nkwa mfiri wɔn nsam?”

16 Naye bwe yali ng’akyayogera, kabaka n’amubuuza nti, “Twali tukulonze okuba omuwi wa magezi owa kabaka? Sirika! Lwaki onoonya okuttibwa?” Awo nnabbi nga tannasirika, n’ayogera kino nti, “Mmanyi nga Katonda amaliridde okukuzikiriza, kubanga tossizaayo mwoyo ku kubuulirira kwange.”

Nanso, ɔhene no amma nʼano ansi, na ɔkaa sɛ, “Da bɛn na mebisaa wo afotuo? Mua wʼano na mankum wo!” Enti, ansa na odiyifoɔ no rebɛkɔ no, ɔbɔɔ saa kɔkɔ yi, “Menim sɛ ɛsiane sɛ woayɛ saa enti, Onyankopɔn ayɛ nʼadwene sɛ ɔbɛsɛe wo, ɛfiri sɛ, woantie mʼafotuo.”

17 Awo Amaziya kabaka wa Yuda ne yeebuuza ku bawi b’amagezi be, n’aweereza obubaka eri Yowaasi mutabani wa Yekoyakaazi, muzzukulu wa Yeeku, kabaka wa Isirayiri, ng’agamba nti, “Jjangu tusisinkane amaaso n’amaaso.”

Akyire a Yudahene Amasia kɔɔ nʼafotufoɔ nkyɛn kɔbisaa afotuo no, ɔde sii Israelhene Yoas a na ɔyɛ Yehoahas babarima, na ɔyɛ Yehu nana nso anim sɛ, “Bra na yɛnni ako.”

18 Naye Yowaasi kabaka wa Isirayiri n’addamu Amaziya kabaka wa Yuda bw’ati nti, “Omwennyango ogwali mu Lebanooni gw’aweereza obubaka eri omuvule ogwali mu Lebanooni, nga gugamba nti, ‘Waayo muwala wo eri mutabani wange, amufumbirwe,’ naye ensolo ey’omu nsiko eyali mu Lebanooni, ng’eyitawo, n’erinnyirira omwennyango.

Na Israelhene Yoas de abasɛm buaa Yudahene Amasia sɛ, “Nkasɛɛ a ɛwɔ Lebanon mmepɔ so somaa abɔfoɔ kɔɔ dutan ntweneduro nkyɛn kɔka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, ‘Fa wo babaa ma me babarima awadeɛ.’ Ɛhɔ ara na aboa bi firi wiram bɛtiatiaa nkasɛɛ no so sɛee no.

19 Weewaana nga bw’owangudde Edomu, era omutima gwo gujjudde okwegulumiza n’okwenyumiriza. Naye sigala ewuwo. Lwaki onoonya emitawaana, ne weeretera okugwa, ggwe ne Yuda?”

Nokorɛm, woadi Edom so nkonim, ama woayɛ ahantan. Ma wʼani nsɔ wo nkonimdie no, na tena wo fie. Adɛn enti na wopere wo ho kɔ ɔhaw a ɛde amanehunu bɛba wo ne Yudafoɔ nyinaa so yi?”

20 Naye Amaziya n’atawuliriza, kubanga okuwangulwa abalabe baabwe kwava eri Katonda, kubanga bava ku Katonda waabwe ne banoonya bakatonda ba Edomu.

Amasia yɛɛ asoɔden, ɛfiri sɛ, na Onyankopɔn resiesie ɛkwan bi afa so asɛe no, sɛ ɔsomm Edom anyame no enti.

21 Awo Yowaasi kabaka wa Isirayiri n’alumba, ye ne Amaziya kabaka wa Yuda ne basisinkana amaaso n’amaaso mu lutalo e Besusemesi ekya Yuda.

Na Israelhene Yoas, boaboaa nʼakodɔm ano kɔtiaa Yudahene Amasia. Akodɔm mmienu no hyiaa wɔ Bet-Semes a ɛwɔ Yuda.

22 Isirayiri n’awangula Yuda, buli muntu n’addukira ewuwe.

Israel akodɔm dii Yuda so nkonim, maa wɔbɔɔ ahweteɛ, dwane kɔɔ wɔn kurom.

23 Yowaasi kabaka wa Isirayiri n’awambira Amaziya kabaka wa Yuda mutabani wa Yowaasi, muzzukulu wa Yekoyakaazi e Besusemesi, n’amuleeta e Yerusaalemi. Yowaasi n’amenyaamenya n’ekitundu ekya bbugwe wa Yerusaalemi okuva ku mulyango gwa Efulayimu okutuuka ku Mulyango ogw’oku Nsonda, eyali mita kikumi mu kinaana obuwanvu.

Israelhene Yoas kyeree Yudahene Amasia wɔ Bet-Semes, na ɔsane de no baa Yerusalem. Afei, Yehoas hyɛɛ nʼakodɔm sɛ, wɔnsɛe Yerusalem ɔfasuo no anammɔn ahansia a ɛfiri Efraim ɛpono ano, kɔsi Twɛtwɛwa Ɛpono no ano.

24 N’atwala ezaabu n’effeeza yonna, n’ebintu ebirala byonna ebyali mu yeekaalu ya Katonda ebyali bikuumibwa Obededomu, wamu n’eby’obugagga eby’omu lubiri, n’abawambe, n’addayo e Samaliya.

Ɔtasee sikakɔkɔɔ ne dwetɛ ne nneɛma ahodoɔ a ɛwɔ Onyankopɔn Asɔredan mu a na Obed-Edom hwɛ so no nyinaa. Afei, ɔfaa adekoradan a na ɛwɔ ahemfie hɔ mu nneɛma kaa nnommumfoɔ no ho, na ɔsane kɔɔ Samaria.

25 Awo Amaziya mutabani wa Yowaasi kabaka wa Yuda n’awangaala emyaka emirala kkumi n’ettaano, oluvannyuma olw’okufa kwa Yowaasi mutabani wa Yekoyakaazi, kabaka wa Isirayiri.

Israelhene Yoas owuo akyi no, Yudahene Amasia tenaa ase mfirinhyia dunum.

26 Ebyafaayo ebirala ebyabaawo mu mirembe gya Amaziya, okuva ku ntandikwa okutuuka ku nkomerero, tebyawandiikibwa mu kitabo kya bassekabaka ba Yuda ne Isirayiri?

Amasia ahennie ho nsɛm nkaeɛ a ɛfiri ahyɛaseɛ kɔsi awieeɛ no, wɔatwerɛ agu Yuda ahemfo ne Israel ahemfo nwoma mu.

27 Okuva mu kiseera, Amaziya lwe yakyuka okuva ku Mukama, baamusalira olukwe mu Yerusaalemi, n’addukira e Lakisi. Kyokka ne bamusindikira abasajja abaamugoberera okutuuka e Lakisi, era ne bamuttira eyo.

Amasia danee ne ho firii Awurade akyi no, wɔpamm ne tiri so wɔ Yerusalem. Ɛno enti, ɔdwane kɔɔ Lakis. Nanso, nʼatamfoɔ somaa awudifoɔ, tii no kɔkumm no wɔ hɔ.

28 Omulambo gwe ne baguleetera ku mbalaasi, n’aziikibwa mu masiro ga bajjajjaabe mu kibuga kya Yuda.

Wɔde no too ɔpɔnkɔ so baa Yerusalem bɛsiee no kaa nʼagyanom ho wɔ Dawid kurom.
