2 Imilando 20
1 Ngemva kwalokho amaMowabi lama-Amoni kanye labanye bamaMewuni baphuma impi ukuba bayehlasela uJehoshafathi.
In kutu pacl tok un mwet mweun lun acn Moab ac Ammon, wi mwet Meunim su welulosyang, elos tuku mweuni acn Judah.
2 Amanye amadoda aya kuJehoshafathi afika athi kuye, “Kulempi enkulu ezayo ukuzakuhlasela evela ngase-Edomi, ngaphetsheya kolwandle. IsiseHazazoni Thamari” (okuyikuthi, Eni-Gedi).
Oasr mwet utuk kas tuku ac fahk nu sel Tokosra Jehoshaphat, “Sie un mwet mweun lulap lun acn Edom tuku lafalyat ke Meoa Misa in mweuni kom. Elos sruokya tari acn Hazazon Tamar.” (Sie pac inen acn se ingan pa Engedi.)
3 Ngokwethuka, uJehoshafathi wazimisela ukumdinga uThixo, wamemezela ukuba akuzilwe ukudla kulolonke elakoJuda.
Jehoshaphat el sangeng, ac el pre nu sin LEUM GOD in suk kasru. Na el sap mwet in mutunfacl sac nufon in lalo.
4 Abantu bakoJuda baqoqana bahlangana bezodinga usizo kuThixo, lakanye baphuma kuyo yonke imizi yakoJuda.
Mwet in siti nukewa lun Judah elos sulaklak tuku nu Jerusalem in siyuk kasru sin LEUM GOD.
5 Ngakho uJehoshafathi wema phambi kwebandla lakoJuda lelaseJerusalema ethempelini likaThixo phambi kweguma elitsha
Na mwet Jerusalem ac mwet nukewa tuku saya me elos tukeni nu ke acn in tukeni sasu oan likin Tempul. Tokosra Jehoshaphat el som tu ye mutalos,
6 wathi, “Oh Thixo, Nkulunkulu wabokhokho, kakusuwe yini uNkulunkulu osezulwini? Ubusa phezu kwemibuso yezizwe zonke. Amandla asesandleni sakho, njalo kakho ongamelana lawe.
ac el pre, “O LEUM GOD lun papa tumasr, kom muta inkusrao ac leum fin mutunfacl nukewa. Kom arulana fulat ac ku; ac wangin mwet ku in lain kom.
7 Oh Nkulunkulu wethu, awubaxotshanga ababekuleli lizwe phambi kwabantu bakho bako-Israyeli wabanika ukuba libe ngelabo nini lanini abesizukulwane sika-Abhrahama umngane wakho na?
Kom God lasr. Ke mwet lom Israel tuku nu in acn se inge, kom lusla mwet su muta inge, ac sang acn uh nu sin fita lal Abraham, mwet kawuk lom, in ma lalos ma pahtpat.
8 Sebehlale kulo njalo sebakhe indawo yokukhonzela yeBizo lakho, besithi,
Elos nuna muta inge ac musaela sie tempul in akfulatye kom, ke sripen elos etu
9 ‘Nxa sisehlelwa zinhlupheko, loba yinkemba yokwahlulela, loba yizifo loba yindlala, sizakuma ngobukhona bakho phambi kwalelithempeli elileBizo lakho sikhale kuwe ekuhlukuluzweni kwethu, wena uzasizwa njalo usisindise.’

10 Kodwa khathesi nanka amadoda ama-Amoni lamaMowabi labeNtabeni yaseSeyiri, abelizwe owalela u-Israyeli ukuba alinqobe ekuphumeni kwakhe eGibhithe; okwabangela ukuthi babatshiye abaze bababhubhisa.
“Inge mwet Ammon, mwet Moab, ac mwet Edom elos mweuni kut. Ke pacl se papa tumasr elos ilme liki acn Egypt, kom tia lela elos in utyak nu in acn ingan. Na papa tumasr elos kuhfla liki acn selos inge, ac tia kunauselosla.
11 Khangela ukuthi khathesi baphindisela ngokunganani ngokusemuka isipho owasipha sona ukuba sibe yilifa lethu.
Na inge elos folokin nu sesr ke ouiya se inge — elos tuku in liskutla liki acn se inge, su kom tuh ase nu sesr.
12 Oh Nkulunkulu wethu, awuyikubahlulela na? Ngoba asilamandla okumelana lebutho elikhulu kangaka elisihlaselayo. Asikwazi esingakwenza, kodwa amehlo ethu aphezu kwakho.”
Kom God lasr! Sang kai fal nu selos, mweyen kut tia ku in lain un mwet mweun na lulap se su mweuni kut inge. Kut tia etu lah mea kut ac oru, na pa kut nget nu sum in kasre kut.”
13 Wonke amadoda akoJuda, labomkabo labantwabawo lensane, bema lapho phambi kukaThixo.
Mukul nukewa in acn Judah, wi mutan kialos ac tulik natulos, elos tu ke mutun Tempul.
14 UMoya kaThixo wehlela kuJahaziyeli indodana kaZakhariya, indodana kaBhenaya, indodana kaJeyiyeli, indodana kaMathaniya, umLevi oyisizukulwane sika-Asafi, emi phambi kwebandla.

15 Wasesithi: “Lalela, wena Nkosi Jehoshafathi labo bonke abahlala koJuda labaseJerusalema! Nanku okutshiwo nguThixo kini: ‘Lingesabi njalo lingadediswa yibukhulu bebutho laleyompi. Ngoba ukulwa akusikwenu, kodwa ngokukaNkulunkulu.
Jahaziel el fahk, “Leum Fulat, ac mwet nukewa lun Judah ac Jerusalem, LEUM GOD El fahk tuh kowos in tia fosrnga ku sangeng in lain un mwet mweun na pus se inge. Mweun uh oan inpoun God, ac tia inpouwos.
16 Kusasa hambani liyejamelana labo. Bona bazakhwela ngokhalo lwaseZizi, lina lizabathola ekucineni kodonga eNkangala yaseJeruweli.

17 Aliyikuyilwa limpi. Lunganini ezindaweni; lime ngesibindi lizabona ukuhlenga kukaThixo azalenzela khona, Oh lina bakaJuda lani beJerusalema. Lingesabi, lingadangali. Phumani kusasa liyehlasela, uThixo uzakuba lani.’”
Kowos ac fah tia mweun ke mweun se inge. Akola na ac soano; kowos ac liye ke LEUM GOD El ac asot kutangla nu suwos. Mwet Judah ac mwet Jerusalem, kowos in tia alolo ku sangeng. Fahsrot na nu ke mweun an, ac LEUM GOD El ac wi kowos!”
18 UJehoshafathi wakhothama ubuso buphansi kanti njalo bonke abakoJuda labaseJerusalema bawela phansi ngobuso bemkhonza uThixo.
Na Tokosra Jehoshaphat el srimi nwe ten ac mutal sun infohk ah, ac mwet nukewa welul srimi ac alu nu sin LEUM GOD.
19 Ngakho abanye abaLevi bamaKhohathi, lamaKhora bema bamdumisa uThixo, uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli, ngelizwi eliphakemeyo okuphezulu.
Mwet Levi in sou lal Kohath ac Korah elos tuyak ac wola ke sie pusra lulap, ac kaksakin LEUM GOD lun Israel.
20 Kwathi ekuseni kakhulu basuka baya eNkangala yaseThekhowa. Bathi besuka lapho, uJehoshafathi waphakama wathi, “Lalelani kimi, bantu bakoJuda lani baseJerusalema! Thembelani kuThixo uNkulunkulu wenu uzaliphathisa; likholwe abaphrofethi bakhe, lizaphumelela.”
Toang na ke lotutang se tok ah, mwet uh som nu wut in acn apkuran nu Tekoa. Ke elos mukuiyak, Jehoshaphat el fahk kas inge nu selos: “Mwet Judah ac mwet Jerusalem, kowos filiya lulalfongi lowos in LEUM GOD lowos, ac kowos fah tiana mukuikui. Lulalfongi ma mwet palu lal an fahk nu suwos, na ac fah wo ouiya nu suwos.”
21 Ngemva kokubuza abantu, uJehoshafathi wakhetha amadoda okuhlabelela uThixo lokumdumisa ngenxa yenkazimulo yobungcwele bakhe bekhokhele amabutho, besithi: “Mbongeni uThixo, ngoba uthando lwakhe lumi nininini.”
Tukun tokosra el pwapa yurin mwet uh, el sap kutu mwet on in nokomang nuknuk loeloes ma elos nukum ke pacl in akfulat lalos, ac fahsr meet liki mwet mweun, ac on, “Kaksakin LEUM GOD, tuh lungse lal oan ma pahtpat!”
22 Bathi beqalisa ukuhlabelela njalo bedumisa, uThixo wabeka abantu bokucathamela abase-Amoni labase-Mowabi labaseNtabeni iSeyiri ababedinga ukuhlasela uJuda, behlulwa.
Ke elos mutawauk in on, LEUM GOD El arulana akfohsyauk mwet mweun ma tuku in lainulos.
23 Amadoda ako-Amoni lawamaMowabi avukela amadoda ayevela eNtabeni yaseSeyiri ukuba bawabulale bawatshabalalise. Ngemva kokuba sebeqedile ukubulala abaseSeyiri, banceda ngokubulalana bodwa.
Mwet Ammon ac mwet Moab elos forang lain mwet Edom, ac onelosla nufon. Na elos forani amweuni inmasrlolos sifacna.
24 Amadoda akoJuda athe efika endaweni emalungana lenkangala bakhangela lapho okwakulebutho elikhulu khona babona ngezidumbu zelekene phansi, kungekho loyedwa owayebalekile.
Ke mwet mweun lun Judah elos sun sie tower su oan yen mwesis, elos ngetla nu yen mweun orek we ac liye tuh na mwet nukewa topelik infohk ah misa, ac wanginna sie selos kaingla.
25 Ngakho uJehoshafathi lamanye amadoda bahamba bayabutha impango, njalo phakathi kwayo bafumana impahla zokusebenzisa lezembatho lezinye njalo impahla eziligugu ukwedlula lezo ababengazithwala. Impango yayinengi kwaze kwathatha insuku ezintathu beyithutha.

26 Ngosuku lwesine babuthana eSigodini saseBherakha, lapho abadumisela khona uThixo. Kungenxa yalokho yonale indawo yabizwa ngokuthi iSigodi saseBherakha kuze kube lamuhla.
In len se akakosr, elos tukeni Infahlfal Beracah ac kaksakin LEUM GOD ke ma nukewa El orala. Pa inge sripa se sis pangpang infahlfal se inge “Beracah.”
27 Ngakho wonke amadoda akoJuda lawaseJerusalema abuyela ngokuthokoza eJerusalema, bekhokhelwa nguJehoshafathi ngoba uThixo wayebenzele lokho okwakubajabulisile phezu kwezitha zabo.
Jehoshaphat el kol un mwet mweun lal ac folokla nu Jerusalem ke engan lulap, mweyen LEUM GOD El kutangla fin mwet lokoalok lalos.
28 Bangena eJerusalema baya ethempelini likaThixo betshaya imihubhe lemiqangala lamacilongo.
Ke elos sun siti uh, elos alla na nwe ke Tempul, wi pusren on ke harp ac mwe ukuk.
29 Ukwesaba uNkulunkulu kwehlela phezu kwayo yonke imibuso emazweni besizwa ngokulwa kukaThixo esilwa lezitha zika-Israyeli.
Mutunfacl nukewa su lohng ke LEUM GOD El kutangla mwet lokoalok lun mwet Israel, elos arulana sangeng.
30 Lakanye umbuso kaJehoshafathi waba lokuthula, ngoba uNkulunkulu wakhe wayemnike ukuphumula inxa zonke.
Ouinge Jehoshaphat el leum in misla, ac God El oru in oasr misla inmasrlol ac facl nukewa su apnulla.
31 Ngakho uJehoshafathi wabusa koJuda. Waba yinkosi yakoJuda eleminyaka engamatshumi amathathu lanhlanu, wabusa eJerusalema okweminyaka engamatshumi amabili lanhlanu. Unina wayengu-Azubha indodakazi kaShilihi.
Jehoshaphat el tokosrala fin acn Judah ke el yac tolngoul limekosr, ac el leum in Jerusalem ke lusen yac longoul limekosr. Inen nina kial ah pa Azubah, acn natul Shilhi.
32 Wahamba ngezindlela zikayise u-Asa njalo kazange aphambuke kuzo; wenza okulungileyo phambi kukaThixo.
Jehoshaphat el oru ma suwohs ye mutun LEUM GOD, oana ke Asa, papa tumal, el oru.
33 Izindawo zokukhonzela kazisuswanga njalo abantu babelokhu bengazimiselanga ngezinhliziyo zabo ngokupheleleyo kuNkulunkulu waboyise.
Tusruktu nien alu lun mwet pegan tiana kunausyukla. Mwet uh tiana forla ke insialos nufon in alu nu sin LEUM GOD lun papa tumalos.
34 Ezinye izehlakalo ngombuso kaJehoshafathi kusukela ekuqaleni kusiya ekucineni, zilotshiwe embalini kaJehu, indodana kaHanani, yona elotshwe egwalweni lwamakhosi ako-Israyeli.

35 Ngokuqhubeka kwezikhathi, uJehoshafathi inkosi yakoJuda waba lesibopho asenza lo-Ahaziya inkosi yako-Israyeli, owayelecala lokwenza okubi.
Sie pacl ah Tokosra Jehoshaphat el orala sie pwapa in akupasri nu sel Ahaziah, tokosra lun acn Israel, su oru ma koluk na pus.
36 Wavumelana laye ukuba bakhe imikhumbi yokuthwala impahla zokuthengiselana. Ngemva kokuba isiyakhiwe e-Eziyoni-Gebheri,
Eltal musaela oak in kalkal meoa ke nien oai in siti Eziongeber.
37 u-Eliyezari indodana kaDodavahu waseMaresha wakhuluma isiphrofethi esilahla uJehoshafathi, esithi, “Ngenxa yokuthi wenza isibopho lo-Ahaziya, uThixo uzadiliza lokho okwenzileyo.” Imikhumbi yabhidlika ayaze yenelisa ukungena olwandle isiyathengisa.
