2 Bassekabaka 17
1 Mu mwaka ogw’ekkumi n’ebiri ogw’obufuzi bwa Akazi kabaka wa Yuda, Koseya mutabani wa Era n’afuuka kabaka wa Isirayiri mu Samaliya, n’afugira emyaka mwenda.
Mʼchaka cha 12 cha Ahazi mfumu ya Yuda, Hoseya mwana wa Ela anakhala mfumu ya Israeli mu Samariya ndipo analamulira zaka zisanu ndi zinayi.
2 N’akola ebibi mu maaso ga Mukama, naye tebyenkana nga bassekabaka ba Isirayiri bye baakola.
Iye anachita zoyipa pamaso pa Yehova, koma osafanana ndi mafumu a Israeli amene ankalamulira iye asanalowe ufumuwo.
3 Salumaneseri kabaka w’e Bwasuli n’amulumba, Koseya n’afuuka muddu we era n’amuwanga obusuulu.
Salimenezeri mfumu ya ku Asiriya anabwera kudzathira nkhondo Hoseya amene anali pansi pa ulamuliro wake ndipo ankapereka msonkho kwa iyeyo.
4 Naye oluvannyuma kabaka w’e Bwasuli n’akizuula nga Koseya yali amuliddemu olukwe, kubanga yali atumye ababaka ewa So kabaka w’e Misiri, ate nga takyaweereza busuulu ewa kabaka w’e Bwasuli, nga bwe yakolanga buli mwaka. Salumaneseri kyeyava amukwata n’amuteeka mu kkomera.
Koma mfumu ya ku Asiriya inazindikira kuti Hoseya akuwukira, pakuti Hoseyayo anali atatumiza nthumwi kwa So mfumu ya Igupto ndiponso analeka kukhoma msonkho kwa mfumu ya ku Asiriya, monga ankachitira chaka ndi chaka. Choncho Salimenezeri anagwira Hoseya ndi kumuyika mʼndende.
5 Awo kabaka w’e Bwasuli n’alumba ensi yonna, n’atuuka e Samaliya, n’akizingiriza emyaka esatu.
Mfumu ya ku Asiriya inapita kukathira nkhondo dziko lonse la Israeli ndipo inapita mpaka ku Samariya ndipo inazinga mzindawo kwa zaka zitatu.
6 Mu mwaka ogw’omwenda ogwa Koseya, kabaka w’e Bwasuli n’awamba Samaliya, n’atwala Abayisirayiri mu buwaŋŋanguse e Bwasuli, n’abateeka mu Kala, ne mu Kaboli ku mugga ogw’e Gozani, ne mu bibuga eby’Abameedi.
Mʼchaka chachisanu ndi chinayi cha Hoseya, mfumu ya ku Asiriya inalanda Samariya ndipo inatenga Aisraeli ndi kupita nawo ku Asiriya. Anakawakhazika ku Hala ndi Habori mʼmbali mwa mtsinje wa Gozani ndi mʼmizinda ya Amedi.
7 Bino byonna byabaawo kubanga Abayisirayiri bayonoona mu maaso ga Mukama Katonda waabwe, eyali abaggye mu Misiri okuva mu mukono gwa Falaawo, ye kabaka w’e Misiri. Baasinzanga bakatonda abalala,
Zonsezi zinachitika chifukwa Aisraeli anachimwira Yehova Mulungu wawo, amene anawatulutsa mʼdziko la Igupto pansi pa ulamuliro wa Farao mfumu ya Igupto. Iwo ankapembedza milungu ina,
8 ne bagobereranga empisa za baamawanga Mukama ge yali agobye mu maaso gaabwe. Era bagobereranga n’emizizo bassekabaka ba Isirayiri gye baali bataddewo.
ndiponso ankatsatira miyambo ya anthu a mitundu imene Yehova anayichotsa pamene iwo ankafika mʼdzikomo pamodzinso ndi miyambo yonse imene mafumu a Israeli anayambitsa.
9 Abayisirayiri ne bakolanga mu nkizo ebyo ebitaali birungi mu maaso ga Mukama. Ne bazimba ebifo ebigulumivu mu bibuga byabwe byonna, okuviira ddala ku minaala omwabeeranga abakuumi okutuuka ku kibuga ekiriko bbugwe.
Ndipo Aisraeli ankachita zoyipa mwamseri kutsutsana ndi Yehova Mulungu wawo. Kuchokera ku nsanja ya alonda mpaka ku mzinda wotetezedwa, mʼmizinda yawo yonse anamangamo malo opembedzeramo mafano.
10 Ne beesimbira empagi ez’amayinja n’eza Baasera, ku buli kasozi akawanvu, ne wansi wa buli muti.
Anayimika miyala ya chipembedzo ndi mitengo ya mafano a Asera pa phiri lililonse lalitali ndi pansi pa mtengo uliwonse wa masamba ambiri.
11 Ne bookera obubaane ku buli kifo ekigulumivu ng’amawanga gali Mukama ge yali agobye mu maaso gaabwe bwe gaakolanga. Ne bakola ebintu eby’ekivve ne basunguwaza Mukama.
Pa malo aliwonse opembedzera mafano, anthuwa ankafukiza lubani monga momwe ankachitira anthu a mitundu imene Yehova anayichotsa pamene iwo ankafika. Iwo anachita zinthu zoyipa zomwe zinaputa mkwiyo wa Yehova.
12 Ne basinza ebifaananyi, ate nga Mukama yali abalagidde nti, “Temukolanga ekyo.”
Ndipo iwowo ankapembedza mafano ngakhale Yehova ananena kuti, “Musadzachite zimenezi.”
13 Mukama n’alabula Isirayiri ne Yuda ng’akozesa bannabbi n’abalabi nti, “Mukyuke muve mu bibi byammwe, mukuume amateeka gange n’ebiragiro byange, ng’etteeka bwe liri lye nalagira bajjajjammwe, lye nabaweereza nga nkozesa abaddu bange bannabbi.”
Yehova anachenjeza Israeli ndi Yuda kudzera mwa aneneri ake onse ndi alosi kuti, “Lekani mchitidwe wanu woyipawo. Mverani malamulo anga ndi malangizo anga potsatira zonse zolembedwa mʼmalamulo a Mose, zimene ndinalamulira makolo anu kuti azimvere, kudzera mwa aneneri, atumiki anga.”
14 Naye ne batawuliriza, ne baba bakakanyavu nga bajjajjaabwe bwe baali, abateesiga Mukama Katonda waabwe.
Koma anthuwa sanamvere ndipo anawumitsa khosi ngati momwe analili makolo awo, amene sanadalire Yehova Mulungu wawo.
15 Ne banyooma ebiragiro n’endagaano gye yali akoze ne bajjajjaabwe, n’okulabula kwe yali abawadde. Ne bagoberera bakatonda abataliimu, ate nabo ne bafuuka ebitagasa. Ne bakola ng’amawanga agaali gabeetoolodde bwe gaakolanga, newaakubadde nga Mukama yali abalabudde nti, “Temukolanga ebyo bye bakola.” Ne bakola byonna Mukama bye yali abagaanye okukola.
Anakana malangizo ake ndi pangano anachita ndi makolo awo ndipo ananyoza zochenjeza za Yehova. Iwo anatsatira mafano achabechabe nasanduka achabechabe. Anthuwa anatsanzira mitundu ya anthu owazungulira ngakhale kuti Yehova anawalamula kuti, “Musamachite zomwe iwo amachita,” koma iwo anachita zomwe Yehova anawaletsa.
16 Ne bava ku mateeka ga Mukama Katonda waabwe gonna, ne baweesa ebifaananyi by’ennyana bibiri, n’empagi ey’Asera, ne basinza n’eggye lyonna ery’omu ggulu era ne basinzanga ne Baali.
Iwowo anasiya malamulo onse a Yehova Mulungu wawo, nadzipangira mafano awiri osungunula a ana angʼombe ndiponso fano la Asera, napembedza zonse zamlengalenga ndi kutumikira Baala.
17 Ne bawaayo abaana baabwe aboobulenzi n’aboobuwala ng’ebiweebwayo mu muliro, ne bakola eby’obufumu n’eby’obulogo, ne beetunda okukola ebibi mu maaso ga Mukama, okumusunguwaza.
Ndipo anadutsitsa mʼmoto ana awo aamuna ndi aakazi. Iwo ankawombeza mawula, namachitanso zanyanga ndipo anadzipereka kuchita zoyipa pamaso pa Yehova namukwiyitsa.
18 Mukama kyeyava asunguwalira ennyo Isirayiri, n’abagoba mu maaso ge, n’alekawo ekika kya Yuda kyokka.
Choncho Yehova anakwiya nawo kwambiri Aisraeli ndipo anawachotsa pamaso pake. Palibe amene anatsala kupatula fuko la Yuda lokha.
19 Kyokka ne Yuda ne batakuuma mateeka ga Mukama Katonda waabwe, naye ne bagoberera empisa za Isirayiri.
Yuda nayenso sanasunge malamulo a Yehova Mulungu wawo. Iwo ankatsatira machitidwe amene Israeli anayambitsa.
20 Mukama kyeyava aleka ezzadde lyonna erya Isirayiri, n’ababonereza, n’abawaayo mu mikono gy’abanyazi, n’okubagoba n’abagobera ddala okuva mu maaso ge.
Motero Yehova anakana Aisraeli onse. Iye anawazunza nawapereka mʼmanja mwa anthu ofunkha mpaka Iye atawachotseratu pamaso pake.
21 Bwe yayawula Isirayiri ku nnyumba ya Dawudi, ne bafuula Yerobowaamu mutabani wa Nebati kabaka waabwe. Yerobowaamu n’aleetera Isirayiri okuviira ddala ku mukama, n’abayonoonyesa n’okusingawo.
Yehova atangʼamba Israeli kumuchotsa ku nyumba ya Davide, Aisraeliwo anasankha Yeroboamu mwana wa Nebati kukhala mfumu yawo. Yeroboamu ananyengerera Aisraeli kuti asatsatire Yehova ndipo anawachimwitsa tchimo lalikulu.
22 Abaana ba Isirayiri ne batambulira mu bibi byonna Yerobowaamu bye yakola, ne batabirekaayo,
Aisraeli anakakamira machimo onse amene Yeroboamu anachita ndipo sanawasiye
23 okutuusa Mukama lwe yabaggyira ddala okuva mu maaso ge, nga bwe yali abalabudde ng’ayita mu baddu be bannabbi. Awo Abayisirayiri ne batwalibwa mu buwaŋŋanguse mu nsi eya Bwasuli, gye bali ne kaakano.
mpaka pamene Yehova anawachotsa pamaso pake monga anawachenjezera kudzera mwa atumiki ake onse, aneneri. Choncho Aisraeli anachotsedwa mʼdziko lawo kupita ku ukapolo ku Asiriya ndipo ali komweko mpaka lero lino.
24 Awo kabaka w’e Bwasuli n’akuŋŋaanya abantu okuva e Babulooni, Kusa, Ava, Kamasi ne Sefavayimu, n’abaleeta mu bibuga bya Samaliya, Abayisirayiri mwe baabeeranga, Samaliya ne bakitwalira ddala era ne babeera mu bibuga byakyo.
Mfumu ya ku Asiriya inabweretsa anthu a ku Babuloni, Kuta, Awa, Hamati ndi a ku Sefaravaimu kudzawakhazika mʼmizinda ya Samariya kulowa mʼmalo mwa Aisraeli. Iwo anatenga Samariya ndi kukhala mʼmizinda yake.
25 Ku ntandikwa bwe babeeramu ne batasinza Mukama, kyeyava abasindikira empologoma ne zitta abamu ku bo.
Iwo atayamba kukhala kumeneko, sanapembedze Yehova choncho Yehova anatumiza mikango pakati pawo ndipo inapha ena mwa iwo.
26 Kabaka w’e Bwasuli n’ategeezebwa nti, “Amawanga ge watwala n’obateeka mu bibuga bya Samaliya tebamanyi tteeka lya Katonda w’ensi eyo, kyeyavudde abasindikira empologoma okubatta, kubanga tebamanyi Katonda w’ensi kye yeetaaga.”
Tsono mfumu ya ku Asiriya inawuzidwa za nkhaniyi kuti, “Anthu amene munawatumiza ndi kuwakhazika mʼmizinda ya Samariya sakudziwa chimene Mulungu wa dzikolo amafuna. Choncho Iye watumiza mikango pakati pawo imene ikuwapha chifukwa anthuwo sadziwa chimene Mulungu wa dzikolo amafuna.”
27 Amangwago kabaka w’e Bwasuli n’alagira nti, “Mutumeyo omu ku bakabona be mwawamba okuva mu Samaliya agende abeere eyo, ayigirize abantu amateeka ga Katonda w’ensi eyo.”
Tsono mfumu ya ku Asiriya inalamula kuti, “Tengani wansembe mmodzi mwa amene munawagwira ukapolo, mupite naye kumeneko ndipo akakhale komweko nakaphunzitse anthu zimene Mulungu wa dzikolo amafuna.”
28 Awo omu ku bakabona eyali awaŋŋangusibbwa okuva mu Samaliya n’agenda n’abeera e Beseri, n’abayigiriza bwe kibagwanira okusinza Mukama.
Choncho mmodzi mwa ansembe amene anawatenga ku Samariya anabwera kudzakhala ku Beteli ndipo ankaphunzitsa anthuwo kupembedza Yehova.
29 Newaakubadde nga kabona yagendayo, buli ggwanga beekolera bakatonda baabwe, ne babateeka mu masabo Abasamaliya ge baali bazimbye ku bifo ebigulumivu mu bibuga byabwe.
Koma mtundu uliwonse wa anthu unkapangabe mafano a milungu yawoyawo mʼmizinda yambiri imene anthuwo ankakhala, ndipo anayika milunguyo mʼnyumba za milungu zimene anthu a ku Samariya anamanga ku malo opembedzera mafano.
30 Abasajja ab’e Babulooni ne bakola Sukkosubenosi, abasajja ab’e Kuusi ne bakola Nengali, abasajja ab’e Kamasi ne bakola Asima:
Anthu a ku Babuloni anapanga Sukoti-Benoti, anthu a ku Kuti anapanga Nerigali, ndipo anthu a ku Hamati anapanga Asima;
31 Abavi ne bakola Nibukazi ne Talutaki, Abasefavayimu ne bookera abaana baabwe mu muliro, nga babawaayo ng’ebiweebwayo eri Adulammereki ne Anammereki, bakatonda ba Sefavayimu.
Aava anapanga Nibihazi ndi Taritaki, ndipo Asefaravaimu ankawotcha ana awo pa moto ngati nsembe kwa Adirameleki ndi Anameleki, milungu ya Asefaravaimu.
32 Baasinzanga Mukama, naye ne balonda n’abantu ab’engeri zonna okuva mu bokka ne bokka okuba bakabona, ab’ebifo ebigulumivu, abaabaweerangayo ssaddaaka mu masabo ag’ebifo ebigulumivu.
Iwo ankapembedza Yehova, koma ankadzisankhira okha pakati pawo anthu wamba kuti akhale ansembe awo ku nyumba za milungu za ku malo opembedzera mafano.
33 Ne basinzanga Mukama, naye nga bwe baweereza ne bakatonda baabwe, ng’empisa ez’amawanga gye baali bavudde bwe zalinga.
Iwowo ankapembedza Yehova, komanso ankatumikira milungu yawo molingana ndi miyambo ya mitundu ya kumene ankachokera.
34 Ne leero bakyeyisa mu ngeri y’emu. Tebasinza Mukama so tebagoberera biragiro n’amateeka Mukama bye yalagira bazzukulu ba Yakobo, gwe yatuuma Isirayiri.
Mpaka lero lino iwo akupitirizabe kuchita zimene ankachita poyamba. Sapembedza Yehova kapenanso kutsata malangizo ake ndi malamulo ake, chiphunzitso chake monga mwa malamulo amene Yehova anawapereka kwa zidzukulu za Yakobo, amene anamutcha Israeli.
35 Mukama bwe yakola endagaano n’Abayisirayiri, yabalagira nti, “Temusinzanga bakatonda balala, so temubavuunamiranga so temubaweerezanga, wadde okuwaayo ssaddaaka gye bali.
Pamene Yehova anachita pangano ndi Aisraeli, Iye anawalamula kuti, “Musapembedze milungu ina kapena kuyigwadira iyo, kuyitumikira kapena kupereka nsembe kwa iyoyo.
36 Mwekuumenga okugobereranga ebiragiro n’amateeka, n’etteeka, n’ekiragiro bye yabawandiikira. Temusinzanga bakatonda abalala.
Koma Yehova amene anakutulutsani mʼdziko la Igupto ndi dzanja lake lamphamvu ndiye amene muyenera kumupembedza.
37 Naye musinzanga Mukama eyabaggya mu Misiri n’amaanyi amangi n’omukono gwe, gwe yagolola. Oyo ggwe munavuunamiranga era ne muwaayo ssaddaaka eri ye.
Muyenera kusamalitsa nthawi zonse kusunga malangizo anga ndi malemba anga, chiphunzitso ndi malamulo amene anakulemberani. Musapembedze milungu ina.
38 Temwerabiranga endagaano gye nakola nammwe, era temusinzanga bakatonda abalala.
Musayiwale pangano limene ndinapangana nanu ndipo musamapembedze milungu ina.
39 Wabula musinzanga Mukama Katonda wammwe, kubanga y’anaabalokolanga mu mukono gw’abalabe bammwe bonna.”
Mʼmalo mwake muzipembedza Yehova Mulungu wanu pakuti ndiye amene adzakulanditsani mʼdzanja la adani anu onse.”
40 Naye ne batawuliriza, ne beeyongeranga mu mpisa zaabwe ez’edda.
Komabe iwo sanamvere ndipo anapitiriza kuchita zomwe ankachita kale.
41 Newaakubadde ng’amawanga ago baasinzanga Mukama, kyokka beeyongeranga okusinza bakatonda baabwe. Ne leero abaana baabwe ne bazzukulu baabwe bakola nga bajjajjaabwe bwe baakolanga.
Ngakhale anthuwo ankapembedza Yehova, ankatumikiranso mafano awo. Mpaka lero lino ana awo ndi zidzukulu zawo zikupitiriza kuchita zomwe ankachita makolo awo.
