2 Ebyomumirembe 36

1 Awo abantu b’ensi eyo ne balonda Yekoyakaazi mutabani wa Yosiya, n’asikira kitaawe mu Yerusaalemi.

Afei, nnipa a wɔwɔ asase no so no sii Yosia babarima Yehoahas ɔhene wɔ Yerusalem.

2 Yekoyakaazi yali wa myaka amakumi abiri mu esatu bwe yalya obwakabaka, n’afugira mu Yerusaalemi emyezi esatu.

Ɛberɛ a Yehoahas dii adeɛ no, na wadi mfirinhyia aduonu mmiɛnsa nanso, ɔdii adeɛ abosome mmiɛnsa pɛ.

3 Kabaka w’e Misiri yamugoba ku ntebe ey’obwakabaka mu Yerusaalemi, n’asalira Yuda obusuulu obwa ttani ssatu n’obutundu buna obwa ffeeza ne kilo amakumi asatu mu nnya eza zaabu.

Misraimhene Neko a na ɔhwehwɛ apeatoɔ a ɛyɛ dwetɛ tɔno mmiɛnsa ne fa ne sikakɔkɔɔ kilogram aduasa ɛnan afiri Yuda no na ɔtuu no adeɛ so.

4 Kabaka w’e Misiri n’afuula Eriyakimu muganda wa Yekoyakaazi okuba kabaka wa Yuda ne Yerusaalemi, n’akyusa n’erinnya lye, n’amutuuma Yekoyakimu, naye n’atwala Yekoyakaazi muganda we nga musibe e Misiri.

Misraimhene yii Yehoahas nuabarima Eliakim sɛ ɔhene foforɔ a ɔbɛdi Yuda ne Yerusalem so, na ɔsesaa Eliakim din yɛɛ no Yehoiakim. Na Neko faa Yehoahas sɛ ɔdeduani de no kɔɔ Misraim.

5 Yekoyakimu yali wa myaka amakumi abiri mu etaano bwe yalya obwakabaka, n’afugira emyaka kkumi na gumu mu Yerusaalemi. N’akola ebitali bya butuukirivu mu maaso ga Mukama Katonda we.

Yehoiakim dii adeɛ no, na wadi mfirinhyia aduonu enum, na ɔdii ɔhene Yerusalem mfirinhyia dubaako. Nanso, ɔyɛɛ bɔne wɔ Awurade ne Onyankopɔn ani so.

6 Awo lumu Nebukadduneeza kabaka w’e Babulooni n’amulumba, n’amusiba mu masamba, n’amutwala e Babulooni.

Afei, Babiloniahene Nebukadnessar kɔɔ Yerusalem, kɔko faeɛ. Ɔde nkɔnsɔnkɔnsɔn guu Yehoiakim de no kɔɔ Babilonia.

7 Nebukadduneeza n’atwala n’ebintu ebyali mu yeekaalu ya Mukama e Babulooni, n’abiteeka mu ssabo lye.

Nebukadnessar faa ademudeɛ a ɛwɔ Awurade Asɔredan no mu bi, de kɔguu nʼahemfie wɔ Babilonia.

8 Ebyafaayo ebirala ebyabaawo ku mulembe gwa Yekoyakimu, eby’ekivve bye yakola, ne byonna bye yavunaanibwa, byawandiikibwa mu kitabo kya bassekabaka ba Isirayiri ne Yuda. Yekoyakini mutabani we n’amusikira.

Yehoiakim ahennie ho nsɛm nkaeɛ, bɔne ahodoɔ a ɔyɛeɛ ne biribiara a wɔhunu tiaa no no wɔatwerɛ, agu Israel ne Yuda Ahemfo Nwoma mu. Na ne babarima Yehoiakyin bɛdii nʼadeɛ sɛ ɔhene.

9 Yekoyakini yali wa myaka munaana bwe yalya obwakabaka, n’afugira emyezi esatu n’ennaku kkumi mu Yerusaalemi. N’akola ebitali bya butuukirivu mu maaso ga Mukama.

Yehoiakyin bɛdii adeɛ no, na wadi mfirinhyia dunwɔtwe, nanso ɔdii adeɛ wɔ Yerusalem abosome mmiɛnsa ne dadu pɛ. Yehoiakyin yɛɛ bɔne wɔ Awurade ani so.

10 Awo omwaka bwe gwali nga gunaatera okuggwaako, kabaka Nebukadduneeza n’amutumya, n’aleetebwa e Babulooni n’ebintu byonna eby’omuwendo okuva mu yeekaalu ya Mukama. Nebukadduneeza n’afuula Zeddekiya kitaawe omuto okuba kabaka wa Yuda ne Yerusaalemi.

Afe a ɛdi ɛkan wɔ bosome a ɛdi ɛkan mu no, ɔhene Nebukadnessar frɛɛ Yehoiakyin sɛ ɔmmra Babilonia. Wɔfaa ademudeɛ bebree firii Awurade Asɔredan no mu de kɔɔ Babilonia saa ɛberɛ no. Na Nebukadnessar yii Yehoiakyin wɔfa Sedekia, sɛ ɔnni ɔhene wɔ Yuda ne Yerusalem.

11 Zeddekiya yali wa myaka amakumi abiri mu gumu bwe yalya obwakabaka, n’afugira emyaka kkumi na gumu mu Yerusaalemi.

Ɛberɛ a Sedekia bɛdii adeɛ no, na wadi mfirinhyia aduonu baako, na ɔdii adeɛ wɔ Yerusalem mfirinhyia dubaako.

12 N’akola ebitali bya butuukirivu mu maaso ga Mukama Katonda we, n’ateetoowaza mu maaso ga nnabbi Yeremiya, eyayogeranga ekigambo kya Mukama.

Ɔyɛɛ bɔne wɔ Awurade, ne Onyankopɔn ani so, na wammrɛ ne ho ase wɔ odiyifoɔ Yeremia a na ɔkasa ma Awurade no anim.

13 N’ajeemera ne kabaka Nebukadduneeza eyamulayiza mu maaso ga Katonda. N’akakanyaza ensingo ye n’omutima gwe, n’atakyuka kudda eri Mukama Katonda wa Isirayiri.

Afei, ɔsɔre tiaa ɔhene Nebukadnessar wɔ ɛberɛ a na waka ntam adi nse wɔ Onyankopɔn din mu sɛ, ɔbɛdi no nokorɛ. Na Sedekia yɛ kyenkyenee ne asoɔden, na wampɛ sɛ ɔde ne ho bɛbata Awurade, Israel Onyankopɔn ho.

14 Ate ne bakabona abakulu bonna n’abantu, ne bataba beesigwa ne bagoberera eby’obukaafiiri eby’amawanga amalala, ne bagwagwawaza yeekaalu ya Mukama, gye yali atukuzizza mu Yerusaalemi.

Asɔfoɔ no ntuanofoɔ nyinaa ne ɔmanfoɔ no kɔɔ so yɛɛ mmaratofoɔ. Wɔyɛɛ abosonsomfoɔ a wɔwɔ aman a atwa ahyia hɔ no nneyɛeɛ no bi, na wɔguu Awurade Asɔredan a ɛwɔ Yerusalem no ho fi.

15 Awo Mukama Katonda wa bajjajjaabwe n’ayogera nabo ng’ayita mu babaka be, ng’asaasira abantu be n’ekifo mu abeera.

Awurade, wɔn agyanom Onyankopɔn, somaa nʼadiyifoɔ sɛ wɔnkɔbɔ wɔn kɔkɔ mpɛn bebree, ɛfiri sɛ, na ɔwɔ ahummɔborɔ ma ne nkurɔfoɔ ne nʼAsɔredan no.

16 Naye ne baduuliranga ababaka ba Katonda, ne banyoomanga n’ebigambo bye, ne basekereranga bannabbi be, okutuusa obusungu bwa Katonda bwe bwabuubuukira ku bantu be awatali kubasaasira.

Nanso, nnipa no dii saa Onyankopɔn abɔfoɔ no ho fɛ, amfa wɔn nsɛm no anyɛ hwee. Wɔdii adiyifoɔ no ho fɛ ara kɔsii sɛ Awurade abufuhyeɛ turiiɛ a biribiara antumi annwodwo ano.

17 Kyeyava aweereza kabaka w’Abakaludaaya okubalumba, n’atta n’ekitala abavubuka baabwe mu nnyumba awasinzizibwa, n’atalekaawo muvubuka n’omu newaakubadde abawala abato, newaakubadde abasajja abakulu wadde abakadde ennyo. Bonna Katonda yabawaayo mu mukono gwa Nebukadduneeza.

Enti, Awurade de Babiloniahene ba bɛko tiaa wɔn. Babiloniafoɔ no kunkumm Yuda mmabunu maa mpo, wɔtaa wɔn kɔɔ Asɔredan no mu. Na wɔannya ahummɔborɔ amma nnipa no. Wɔkunkumm mmɔfra ne mpanin, mmarima ne mmaa, ahoɔdenfoɔ ne ayarefoɔ. Onyankopɔn de wɔn nyinaa maa Nebukadnessar.

18 Ne yeetikka ebintu ebinene n’ebitono byonna okuva mu yeekaalu ya Katonda, n’eby’obugagga eby’omu yeekaalu ya Mukama, n’amawanika ga kabaka n’abakungu be.

Ɔhene no sane sesaa nneɛma no nyinaa, akɛseɛ ne nketewa a na wɔde som wɔ Onyankopɔn Asɔredan mu, ne ademudeɛ a na ɛwɔ Awurade Asɔredan no mu ne ahemfie hɔ nyinaa de kɔɔ Babilonia. Ɔde mmapɔmma nyinaa nso kɔeɛ.

19 Ne bookya yeekaalu ya Katonda ne bamenyaamenya ne bbugwe wa Yerusaalemi, ne bookya n’embiri zonna, ne bazikiriza n’ebintu eby’omuwendo byonna.

Afei, nʼakodɔm no too Onyankopɔn Asɔredan no mu ogya, bubuu Yerusalem afasuo no, hyee ahemfie no nyinaa, sɛee biribiara a ɛwɔ boɔ no.

20 N’abo abaawona ekitala, n’abatwala mu buwaŋŋanguse e Babulooni, ne babeera baddu be n’aba batabani be okutuusa ku kufuga kw’obwakabaka bw’Obuperusi.

Nnipa kakra a wɔkaeɛ no, wɔsoaa wɔn kɔɔ Babilonia, maa wɔkɔyɛɛ ɔhene no ne ne mmammarima asomfoɔ kɔsii sɛ Persia ahennie bɛdii tumi.

21 Ensi n’ekuuma ssabbiiti zaayo, ekiseera kyonna kye yamala mu kubonaabona kwayo okutuusa emyaka ensanvu bwe gyagwako, ng’ekyo kituukiriza ekigambo Mukama kye yayogera mu Yeremiya.

Enti, Awurade asɛm a wɔfaa Yeremia so kaeɛ no baa mu. Afei, asase no nso nyaa nʼahomegyeɛ, ɛdaa mpan mfirinhyia aduɔson sɛdeɛ odiyifoɔ no kaeɛ no.

22 Mu mwaka ogw’olubereberye ogwa Kuulo kabaka wa Buperusi, Mukama n’akoma ku mutima gwa Kuulo kabaka wa Buperusi ng’ekigambo Mukama kye yayogerera mu Yeremiya bwe kyali, okulangirira mu bwakabaka bwe bwonna, n’okuwandiika nti,

Persiahene Kores adedie afe a ɛdi ɛkan mu no, Awurade maa odiyifoɔ Yeremia nkɔmhyɛ baa mu. Ɔkaa Kores akoma ma ɔtwerɛ bɔɔ no dawuro wɔ nʼahennie nyinaa mu sɛ,

23 “Bw’atyo bw’ayogera Kuulo kabaka wa Buperusi nti, “‘Mukama Katonda w’eggulu ampadde obwakabaka bwonna obw’omu nsi, era annonze okumuzimbira yeekaalu e Yerusaalemi mu Yuda. Bwe wabaawo omuntu yenna mu mmwe ow’oku bantu be, Mukama Katonda abeere naye, ayambuke.’”

“Sɛdeɛ Persiahene Kores ka nie: “‘Awurade, ɔsorosoro Onyankopɔn de ahennie a ɛwɔ asase so nyinaa ama me. Wayi me sɛ mensi asɔredan mma no wɔ Yerusalem wɔ Yuda asase so. Mo a moyɛ Awurade nkurɔfoɔ nyinaa, monsane nkɔ Israel nkɔdi saa dwuma yi. Awurade, mo Onyankopɔn nka mo ho.’”
