1 Yosamu yali wa myaka amakumi abiri mu etaano, bwe yalya obwakabaka, n’afugira mu Yerusaalemi emyaka kkumi na mukaaga. Nnyina ye yali Yerusa muwala wa Zadooki.

2 Newaakubadde ng’abantu beeyongera okukola ebitali bya butuukirivu, Yosamu yakola ebirungi mu maaso ga Mukama, nga kitaawe Uzziya bwe yakola; naye obutafaanana nga kitaawe bwe yakola, teyayingira mu yeekaalu ya Mukama.

Ɔyɛɛ deɛ ɛsɔ Awurade ani sɛdeɛ nʼagya Usia yɛeɛ no. Yotam deɛ, wankɔ Awurade Asɔredan mu sɛdeɛ nʼagya yɛeɛ no. Nanso, ɔmanfoɔ no toaa wɔn nnebɔneyɛ so.

3 N’addaabiriza Omulyango ogw’Ekyengulu ogwa yeekaalu ya Mukama, ate era n’akola omulimu munene ogw’okuddaabiriza bbugwe wa Oferi.

4 N’azimba n’ebibuga mu nsozi za Yuda, ate mu bibira n’azimbamu ebigo n’asimbamu n’eminaala.

Abamoni ne bamuleeteranga ebintu byebimu mu bigero byebimu mu mwaka ogwokubiri ne mu mwaka ogwokusatu.

8 Yosamu yali wa myaka amakumi abiri mu etaano bwe yalya obwakabaka, era n’afugira emyaka kkumi na mukaaga mu Yerusaalemi.

Ɔdii adeɛ no, na wadi mfirinhyia aduonu enum, na ɔdii ɔhene wɔ Yerusalem mfirinhyia dunsia.

9 Ne yeebakira wamu ne bajjajjaabe, n’aziikibwa mu Kibuga kya Dawudi; Akazi mutabani we n’amusikira.

Yotam wuiɛ no, wɔsiee no Dawid kurom na ne babarima Ahas, na ɔdii nʼadeɛ sɛ ɔhene.
