2 Imilando 17
1 UJehoshafathi indodana ka-Asa waba yinkosi esikhundleni sakhe; wazilungisela ukumelana lo-Israyeli empini.
Pea naʻe pule ʻa Sihosafate ko hono foha ko hono fetongi, pea naʻa ne fakamālohi ʻe ia ia ki ʻIsileli.
2 Wabeka amabutho emizini ebiyelweyo yakoJuda wafaka amaviyo koJuda kanye lasemizini yako-Efrayimi eyayithunjwe nguyise u-Asa.
Pea naʻa ne vahe ʻae kautau [ke nofo ]ki he ngaahi kolotau kotoa pē ʻo Siuta, ʻo ne vahe ʻae ngaahi kongakau leʻo ʻi he fonua ʻo Siuta, pea ʻi he ngaahi kolo ʻo ʻIfalemi, ʻaia naʻe lavaʻi ʻe ʻAsa ko ʻene tamai.
3 UThixo wayelaye uJehoshafathi ngoba ngeminyaka yakuqala wayehamba ngezindlela ezalandelwa nguyise uDavida. Kabadinganga oBhali,
Pea naʻe ʻia Sihosafate ʻa Sihova, ko e meʻa ʻi heʻene ʻalu ʻi he ngaahi ʻuluaki anga ʻo ʻene tamai ko Tevita, pea naʻe ʻikai te ne kumi kia Peali;
4 kodwa wadinga uNkulunkulu kayise njalo walalela imilayo yakhe kazange alingisele okwakusenziwa ngabako-Israyeli.
Ka naʻe kumi ʻe ia kia Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻene tamai, pea ne ʻalu ʻi heʻene ngaahi fekau, pea naʻe ʻikai fakatatau ki he ngaahi ngāue ʻa ʻIsileli.
5 UThixo wawuqinisa umbuso wakhe, bonke abakoJuda baletha izipho kuJehoshafathi, ngakho wanotha kakhulu njalo wahlonitshwa kakhulu.
Ko ia naʻe fakatuʻumaʻu ʻe Sihova ʻae puleʻanga ʻi hono nima: pea naʻe ʻomi ʻe Siuta kotoa pē ʻae ngaahi meʻaʻofa kia Sihosafate: pea maʻu ʻe ia ʻae koloa mo e nāunau ke lahi ʻaupito.
6 Inhliziyo yakhe yayi kuThixo ngokuzinikela okukhulu ezindleleni zakhe; njalo wasusa zonke izindawo zokukhonzela wadiliza lezinsika zikankulunkulukazi u-Ashera koJuda.
Pea naʻe hiki hake hono loto ʻi he ngaahi hala ʻo Sihova: pea naʻa ne liʻaki ʻae ngaahi potu māʻolunga mo e ngaahi vao tapu mei Siuta.
7 Ngomnyaka wesithathu wokubusa kwakhe wathuma izikhulu zakhe oBheni-Hali, lo-Obhadaya, loZakhariya, loNethaneli kanye loMikhaya ukuba ziyefundisa emizini yakoJuda.
Pea ʻi hono tolu taʻu ʻo ʻene pule foki, naʻa ne fekau ki hono houʻeiki, ʻio, kia Peniheili, pea kia ʻOpataia, pea kia Sakalia, pea kia Netanili, pea mo Mikaia, ke ako ʻi he ngaahi kolo ʻo Siuta.
8 Ndawonye lazo kwakulabanye abaLevi uShemaya loNethaniya, loZebhadiya, lo-Asaheli, loShemiramothi, loJehonathani, lo-Adonija, loThobhija kanye loThobhi-Adonija lo-Elishama loJehoramu abaphristi.
Pea naʻa ne fekau mo kinautolu ʻae kau Livai, ʻio, ʻa Simaia, mo Netania, mo Sepatia, mo ʻAsaeli, mo Similamoti, mo Sihonatani, mo ʻAtonisa, mo Topisa, mo Tope ʻAtonisa, ko e kau Livai: pea ʻalu mo kinautolu ʻa ʻIlisama mo Siholami, ko e ongo taulaʻeiki.
9 Bafundisa kulolonke elakoJuda, bethwele uGwalo lwemiThetho kaThixo; babhoda yonke imizi yakoJuda befundisa abantu.
Pea naʻa nau fai ʻae ako ʻi Siuta, ʻonau maʻu ʻiate kinautolu ʻae tohi ʻoe fono ʻa Sihova: pea naʻa nau ʻalu fano ʻi he ngaahi kolo kotoa pē ʻo Siuta, ʻonau ako ki he kakai.
10 Ukumesaba uThixo kwagcwala kuyo yonke imibuso yamazwe akhelane loJuda, ngakho abasayanga empini loJehoshafathi.
Pea naʻe tō ʻae manavahē kia Sihova ki he ngaahi puleʻanga kotoa pē ʻoe ngaahi fonua naʻe tuʻu takatakai ʻi Siuta: ko ia naʻe ʻikai langaʻi ai ha tau kia Sihosafate.
11 Amanye amaFilistiya alethela uJehoshafathi izipho lesiliva njengomthelo, lama-Arabhu aletha imihlambi yezimvu: izinkulungwane eziyisikhombisa lamakhulu ayisikhombisa enqama, lembuzi eziyizinkulungwane eziyisikhombisa lamakhulu ayisikhombisa.
Pea ko e kau Filisitia niʻihi naʻa nau ʻomi ʻae ngaahi meʻaʻofa kia Sihosafate, mo e siliva tukuhau: pea naʻe ʻomi kiate ia ʻe he kakai ʻAlepea ʻae fanga manu, ko e sipitangata ʻe fitu afe, mo e fitungeau, mo e kosi tangata ʻe fitu afe mo e fitungeau.
12 UJehoshafathi waba lamandla amakhulu angezelelweyo, wakha izinqaba lamadolobho eziphala koJuda
Pea naʻe fakaʻaʻau ki muʻa ʻo lahi ʻaupito ʻa Sihosafate: pea naʻe langa ʻe ia ʻi Siuta ʻae ngaahi fale māʻolunga, mo e ngaahi kolo tukunga meʻa.
13 njalo wayelokudla okunengi emizini yakoJuda. Wayelamabutho akwaziyo ukulwa ayehlala eJerusalema.
Pea naʻe lahi ʻene ngāue ʻi he ngaahi kolo ʻo Siuta: pea naʻe [nofo ]ʻi Selūsalema ʻae kau tangata tau, ʻae kau toʻa mālohi.
14 Wona ayemi kanje ngezimuli: KwabakoJuda, abalawuli bamaviyo enkulungwane babeyilaba: u-Adina umlawuli wayelamaqhawe alamandla azinkulungwane ezingamakhulu amathathu;
Pea ko hono lau eni ʻokinautolu ʻo fakatatau ki he fale ʻo ʻenau ngaahi tamai: Ko e kau ʻeiki pule ʻoe ngaahi toko afe ʻo Siuta: ko ʻAtina, ko e tuʻukimuʻa, pea naʻe ʻiate ia ʻae kau tangata toʻa mālohi ko e toko tolu kilu.
15 kulandele uJehohanani umlawuli, elamabutho azinkulungwane ezingamakhulu amabili lamatshumi ayisificaminwembili;
Pea naʻe hoko mo ia ʻa Sihohanani ko e ʻeikitau, pea naʻe ʻiate ia ʻae toko ua kilu, mo e toko valu mano.
16 kulandele u-Amasiya indodana kaZikhiri, owazinikela ukusebenzela uThixo elamaqhawe alamandla azinkulungwane ezingamakhulu amabili.
Pea naʻe hoko mo ia ʻa ʻAmasia ko e foha ʻo Sikili, ʻaia naʻa ne tuku fiemālie pe ia maʻa Sihova: pea naʻe ʻiate ia ʻae kau tangata toʻa mālohi ko e toko ua kilu.
17 KwabakoBhenjamini: kwakungu-Eliyada, indoda eliqhawe, elamadoda azinkulungwane ezingamakhulu amabili ayehlome ngamadandili lezihlangu;
Pea ʻia Penisimani: ko Iliata ko e tangata toʻa mālohi, pea naʻe ʻiate ia ʻae kau tangata naʻe mahafutau ʻaki ʻae kau fana mo e pā, ko e toko ua kilu.
18 kulandele uJehozabhadi elamadoda azinkulungwane ezilikhulu lamatshumi ayisificaminwembili ayehlomele ukulwa impi.
Pea naʻe hoko mo ia ʻa Sihosapati, pea naʻe ʻiate ia ʻae tokotaha kilu mo e toko valu mano naʻe tali teu pe ki he tau.
19 Yiwo la amadoda ayesebenzela inkosi, ngaphandle kwalawo ayesemzini ebiyelweyo kulolonke elakoJuda.
naʻe tali fekau ʻakinautolu ni ki he tuʻi, kaeʻumaʻā ʻakinautolu naʻe tuku ʻe he tuʻi ki he ngaahi kolo tau ʻi he potu kotoa pē ʻo Siuta.
