6 Wakha imizi ebiyelweyo koJuda, njengoba kwakulokuthula elizweni. Kakho owalwa impi laye ngaleyominyaka, ngoba uThixo wamnika ukuphumula.
Hagi ana knafina ha'zana omnegeno, Asa'a Juda mopafima me'nea ranra kumatamimofo kuma kegina eri hankavetino ki'ne. E'ina kafu'afina ha'ma hu'zana omnene. Na'ankure Anumzamo'a mani fru ami'negu anara hu'ne.
7 Wathi kwabakoJuda, “Kasakheni imizi le siyizingelezele ngemiduli, lemiphotshongo, lamasango leminxibo. Ilizwe lilokhu lingelethu, ngoba simtholile uThixo uNkulunkulu wethu; simkhonzile usesilethele ukuthula inxa zonke.” Basebesakha njalo baphumelela.
Hagi Asa'a amanage huno Juda vahe'mokizmia zamasami'ne, Ranra kumatmi kita vihurami tro huganegita, kvama hu'za mani'naza nontamine, kuma kafane hagentesune. Na'ankure Ra Anumzana Anumzantimofo amage antonkeno, maka kaziga mopa tamigeta hara huta eri'none. Anage nehige'za ranra kumatmina negizageno maka zama hazazamo'a knareke'za hu'ne.
8 U-Asa wayelamabutho empi azinkulungwane ezingamakhulu amathathu koJuda, ayehlome ngamahawu amakhulu lemikhonto, lamanye azinkulungwane ezingamakhulu amabili alamatshumi ayisificaminwembili koBhenjamini, ayehlome ngezihlangu ezincinyane lamadandili. Wonke kungamadoda alezibindi zokulwa.

10 U-Asa waphuma laye ukuyamjamela, bafika bajama eSigodini saseZefatha phansi kweMaresha.
Anama higeno'a Asa'a ha' ome hunte'naku sondia vahe'ane vuno, Maresa kuma tava'onte Zefati agupofi ome avazuhumpi hu'za oti'naze.
11 U-Asa wasekhuleka kuThixo uNkulunkulu wakhe wathi: “Thixo, kakho omunye onjengawe ongavikela ababuthakathaka kwabalamandla. Sisize, Oh Thixo Nkulunkulu wethu, ngoba thina sithembele kuwe, ngebizo lakho siphumile ukuba silwe lalelibutho lempi elikhulu kangaka. Oh Thixo, unguNkulunkulu wethu; umuntu angezake amelane lawe.”
Anama nehazageno'a Asa'a Ra Anumzana, agra'a Anumzamofontega anage huno nunamuna hu'ne, Ra Anumzamoka, sondia vaheni'ane nagranena hankavetia omne vahe manunkeno, Zerana rama'a sondia vahetami mani'naze. Hianagi Kagra hankavezmima omne sondia vahe zamaza nehanke'za, hanave sondia vahera hara hu'za zamagateneraza Anumza mani'nane. Kagri kagire tamentinti hunankino, mago vahe'mo'e huno hara Ra Anumzamoka hu kagateoregahie.
12 UThixo wawatshaya wawabhuqa amaKhushi phambi kuka-Asa labakoJuda. AmaKhushi abaleka,
Anagema hutegeno, Ra Anumzamo'a Asane Juda vahetmimofo zmavuga, Itiopia sondia vahera hara hu zmagaterege'za, Itiopia sondia vahe'mo'za atre'za koro fre'naze.
13 kodwa u-Asa lamabutho akhe waxotshana lawo waze wayawafikisa eGerari. Kwafa amaKhushi amanengi okokuthi kasazange azame ukuqoqana kutsha; abhuqwa phambi kukaThixo laphambi kwamabutho akhe. Amadoda akoJuda atshuquluza impango enengi kakhulu.
