2 Imilando 20
1 Ngemva kwalokho amaMowabi lama-Amoni kanye labanye bamaMewuni baphuma impi ukuba bayehlasela uJehoshafathi.
Oo taas dabadeedna waxaa Yehooshaafaad ku soo kacay inay la diriraan reer Moo'aab iyo reer Cammoon iyo qaar kale oo reer Cammoon ahaa.
2 Amanye amadoda aya kuJehoshafathi afika athi kuye, “Kulempi enkulu ezayo ukuzakuhlasela evela ngase-Edomi, ngaphetsheya kolwandle. IsiseHazazoni Thamari” (okuyikuthi, Eni-Gedi).
Markaasaa qaar yimid oo waxay Yehooshaafaad u soo sheegeen oo ku yidhaahdeen, Waxaa kugu soo socda col faro badan oo ka imanaya badda shishadeeda iyo dalka Suuriya, oo bal eeg haatan waxay joogaan Xasason Taamaar oo ah Ceyn Gedii.
3 Ngokwethuka, uJehoshafathi wazimisela ukumdinga uThixo, wamemezela ukuba akuzilwe ukudla kulolonke elakoJuda.
Kolkaasaa Yehooshaafaad cabsaday, oo wuxuu isu diyaariyey inuu Rabbiga doondoono, oo dalkii Yahuudah oo dhanna soon buu ku naadiyey.
4 Abantu bakoJuda baqoqana bahlangana bezodinga usizo kuThixo, lakanye baphuma kuyo yonke imizi yakoJuda.
Markaasay dadkii Yahuudah oo dhammu iswada urursadeen inay Rabbiga caawimaad ka weyddiistaan, oo xataa magaalooyinkii dalka Yahuudah oo dhan way uga soo baxeen inay Rabbiga doondoonaan.
5 Ngakho uJehoshafathi wema phambi kwebandla lakoJuda lelaseJerusalema ethempelini likaThixo phambi kweguma elitsha
Markaasa Yehooshaafaad isdhex taagay shirkii dadka Yahuudah iyo Yeruusaalem iyagoo jooga guriga Rabbiga iyo barxadda cusub horteeda,
6 wathi, “Oh Thixo, Nkulunkulu wabokhokho, kakusuwe yini uNkulunkulu osezulwini? Ubusa phezu kwemibuso yezizwe zonke. Amandla asesandleni sakho, njalo kakho ongamelana lawe.
oo wuxuu yidhi, Rabbiyow Ilaahii awowayaashayow, sow ma ahid Ilaaha samada ku jira? Oo sow ma ahid kan u taliya kulli boqortooyooyinka quruumaha oo dhan? Oo gacantaadana waxaa ku jira xoog iyo itaal oo sidaas daraaddeed ninna kuma hor istaagi karo.
7 Oh Nkulunkulu wethu, awubaxotshanga ababekuleli lizwe phambi kwabantu bakho bako-Israyeli wabanika ukuba libe ngelabo nini lanini abesizukulwane sika-Abhrahama umngane wakho na?
Ilaahayagow, dadkii dalkan degganaa sow kama aad eryin dadkaaga reer binu Israa'iil hortooda, oo weligiisba sow ma aadan siin saaxiibkaagii Ibraahim farcankiisii?
8 Sebehlale kulo njalo sebakhe indawo yokukhonzela yeBizo lakho, besithi,
Haddaba iyagu way dhex degganaan jireen, oo waxay magacaaga aawadiis uga dhex dhiseen meel quduus ah, oo waxay yidhaahdeen,
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.’
Markii wax shar ahu ay nagu dhacaan hadday yihiin seef ama xukun ama belaayo ama abaar, annagu waxaan soo hor istaagi doonnaa gurigan iyo adiga, (waayo, magacaagu wuxuu ku jiraa gurigan), markaasaannu kuu qayshan doonnaa annagoo dhib ku jirna, oo adna waad na maqli doontaa oo waad na badbaadin doontaa.
10 Kodwa khathesi nanka amadoda ama-Amoni lamaMowabi labeNtabeni yaseSeyiri, abelizwe owalela u-Israyeli ukuba alinqobe ekuphumeni kwakhe eGibhithe; okwabangela ukuthi babatshiye abaze bababhubhisa.
Haddaba bal eeg reer Cammoon iyo reer Moo'aab iyo reer Buur Seciir oo aad reer binu Israa'iil markay dalka Masar ka soo baxeen u diidday inay dalkooda galaan, laakiinse gees bay uga leexdeen oo mana ay baabbi'in.
11 Khangela ukuthi khathesi baphindisela ngokunganani ngokusemuka isipho owasipha sona ukuba sibe yilifa lethu.
Bal eeg siday noogu abaalgudeen oo ay noogu soo baxeen iyagoo doonaya inay naga tuuraan hantidaadii aad dhaxal ahaan noo siisay.
12 Oh Nkulunkulu wethu, awuyikubahlulela na? Ngoba asilamandla okumelana lebutho elikhulu kangaka elisihlaselayo. Asikwazi esingakwenza, kodwa amehlo ethu aphezu kwakho.”
Ilaahayagow, miyaadan iyaga xukumi doonayn? Waayo, annagu itaal uma hayno guutadan weyn oo nagu soo socota, oo weliba wax aannu samaynona ma naqaan, laakiinse indhahayagu adigay kuu soo jeedaan.
13 Wonke amadoda akoJuda, labomkabo labantwabawo lensane, bema lapho phambi kukaThixo.
Oo weliba dadka Yahuudah oo dhammu Rabbigay hor taagnaayeen iyaga iyo dhallaankoodii iyo naagahoodii iyo carruurtoodiiba.
14 UMoya kaThixo wehlela kuJahaziyeli indodana kaZakhariya, indodana kaBhenaya, indodana kaJeyiyeli, indodana kaMathaniya, umLevi oyisizukulwane sika-Asafi, emi phambi kwebandla.
Markaasaa ruuxii Rabbigu wuxuu ku soo degay Yaxasii'eel ina Sekaryaah, kaasoo ahaa ina Benaayaah, oo ahaa ina Yecii'eel, oo ahaa ina Matanyaah, oo reer Aasaaf ahaa, oo reer Laawi ka sii ahaa, isagoo shirka ku dhex jira.
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.
Markaasuu yidhi, Kulligiin dadka Yahuudah, iyo kuwiinna Yeruusaalem deggan, iyo adiga Boqor Yehooshaafaad ahowba, wada maqla. Rabbigu wuxuu idinku leeyahay, Dadkan faraha badan daraaddiis ha u cabsanina, hana u qalbi jabina, waayo, dagaalka ma lihidin, laakiinse Ilaah baa iska leh.
16 Kusasa hambani liyejamelana labo. Bona bazakhwela ngokhalo lwaseZizi, lina lizabathola ekucineni kodonga eNkangala yaseJeruweli.
Haddaba idinku berrito u dhaadhaca iyaga, oo bal eeg, waxay soo korayaan jiirta Siis, oo waxaad ka heli doontaan meesha dooxadu ku dhammaato oo ka horraysa cidlada Yeruu'eel.
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.’”
Idinku uma baahnaan doontaan inaad dagaalkan gashaan, haddaba dadkii Yahuudah iyo dadkii Yeruusaalemow, joogsada, oo iska taagnaada, oo eega badbaadada Rabbigu idin badbaadinayo; berrito iyaga u baxa, oo ha cabsanina, hana qalbi jabina, maxaa yeelay, Rabbiga ayaa idinla jira.
18 UJehoshafathi wakhothama ubuso buphansi kanti njalo bonke abakoJuda labaseJerusalema bawela phansi ngobuso bemkhonza uThixo.
Markaasaa Yehooshaafaad madaxa foororshay oo wejiga dhulka saaray, oo dadkii Yahuudah iyo dadkii Yeruusaalem degganaa oo dhammuna Rabbiga hortiisay isku tuureen oo u sujuudeen.
19 Ngakho abanye abaLevi bamaKhohathi, lamaKhora bema bamdumisa uThixo, uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli, ngelizwi eliphakemeyo okuphezulu.
Kolkaasaa kuwii reer Laawi oo ahaa reer Qohaad iyo reer Qorax waxay u istaageen inay Rabbiga ah Ilaaha reer binu Israa'iil cod aad iyo aad u weyn ku ammaanaan.
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.”
Markaasay aroor hore kaceen oo waxay u ambabbaxeen xagga cidladii Teqooca, oo intay baxayeen ayaa Yehooshaafaad istaagay oo yidhi, Dadka Yahuudah iyo kuwiinna Yeruusaalem degganow, i maqla, rumaysta Rabbiga Ilaahiinna ah oo waad xoogaysan doontaan, oo rumaysta nebiyadiisa oo waad liibaani doontaan.
21 Ngemva kokubuza abantu, uJehoshafathi wakhetha amadoda okuhlabelela uThixo lokumdumisa ngenxa yenkazimulo yobungcwele bakhe bekhokhele amabutho, besithi: “Mbongeni uThixo, ngoba uthando lwakhe lumi nininini.”
Oo markuu dadkii la tashaday ayuu doortay kuwii Rabbiga u gabyi lahaa oo ammaani lahaa iyagoo dhar quduus ah qaba oo ciidanka hor socda oo leh, Rabbiga ku mahadnaqa, waayo, naxariistiisu weligeedba way waartaa.
22 Bathi beqalisa ukuhlabelela njalo bedumisa, uThixo wabeka abantu bokucathamela abase-Amoni labase-Mowabi labaseNtabeni iSeyiri ababedinga ukuhlasela uJuda, behlulwa.
Oo markay bilaabeen inay gabyaan oo Ilaah ammaanaan ayaa Rabbigu rag gaadmo ah ku soo kiciyey reer Cammoon iyo reer Moo'aab iyo reer Buur Seciir oo ku soo kacay dadkii Yahuudah, oo iyagii waa la laayay.
23 Amadoda ako-Amoni lawamaMowabi avukela amadoda ayevela eNtabeni yaseSeyiri ukuba bawabulale bawatshabalalise. Ngemva kokuba sebeqedile ukubulala abaseSeyiri, banceda ngokubulalana bodwa.
Waayo, reer Cammoon iyo reer Moo'aab ayaa is hortaageen dadkii degganaa Buur Seciir inay dhammaantood laayaan oo wada baabbi'iyaan, oo markay wada baabbi'iyeen dadkii Buur Seciir degganaa ayaa mid kastaaba kan kale ku caawiyey inuu nin kale dilo.
24 Amadoda akoJuda athe efika endaweni emalungana lenkangala bakhangela lapho okwakulebutho elikhulu khona babona ngezidumbu zelekene phansi, kungekho loyedwa owayebalekile.
Oo dadkii Yahuudah markay yimaadeen meeshii dheerayd ee cidlada ee wax laga dhawro ayay fiiriyeen dadkii faraha badnaa, oo waxay arkeen inay yihiin meydad dhulka ku dhacay, oo midna ma baxsan.
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.
Oo Yehooshaafaad iyo dadkiisii markay u yimaadeen inay iyaga furtaan waxay dhexdoodii ka heleen maal badan oo meydadka la yaal iyo alaab qaali ah oo ay nafsaddooda u furteen, oo waxaasuna waxay qaadan karaan waa ka badnaayeen, oo intii saddex maalmood ah ayay dhicii guranayeen, maxaa yeelay, aad iyo aad buu u badnaa.
26 Ngosuku lwesine babuthana eSigodini saseBherakha, lapho abadumisela khona uThixo. Kungenxa yalokho yonale indawo yabizwa ngokuthi iSigodi saseBherakha kuze kube lamuhla.
Oo maalintii afraad ayay ku shireen dooxada Barako, waayo, halkaasay Rabbiga ku ammaaneen, sidaas daraaddeed meeshaas magaceedii waxaa loo bixiyey Dooxadii Barako, oo ilaa maantadanna waa loo yaqaan.
27 Ngakho wonke amadoda akoJuda lawaseJerusalema abuyela ngokuthokoza eJerusalema, bekhokhelwa nguJehoshafathi ngoba uThixo wayebenzele lokho okwakubajabulisile phezu kwezitha zabo.
Markaasaa dadkii Yahuudah iyo dadkii Yeruusaalem oo dhammu iyagoo Yehooshaafaad u horreeyo waxay ku noqdeen Yeruusaalem iyagoo faraxsan, waayo, Rabbigu wuxuu kaga farxiyey libtii ay cadaawayaashoodii ka heleen.
28 Bangena eJerusalema baya ethempelini likaThixo betshaya imihubhe lemiqangala lamacilongo.
Oo Yeruusaalem iyo gurigii Rabbiga ayay soo galeen iyagoo ka dhawaajinaya shareerado, iyo kataarado, iyo turumbooyin.
29 Ukwesaba uNkulunkulu kwehlela phezu kwayo yonke imibuso emazweni besizwa ngokulwa kukaThixo esilwa lezitha zika-Israyeli.
Oo boqortooyooyinkii dalalka oo dhan waxaa ku soo degtay Ilaah cabsidiis markay maqleen in Rabbigu la diriray cadaawayaashii dadkii Israa'iil.
30 Lakanye umbuso kaJehoshafathi waba lokuthula, ngoba uNkulunkulu wakhe wayemnike ukuphumula inxa zonke.
Sidaas daraaddeed Yehooshaafaad boqortooyadiisii way xasilloonayd, waayo, Ilaahiis ayaa ka nasiyey hareerihiisa oo dhan.
31 Ngakho uJehoshafathi wabusa koJuda. Waba yinkosi yakoJuda eleminyaka engamatshumi amathathu lanhlanu, wabusa eJerusalema okweminyaka engamatshumi amabili lanhlanu. Unina wayengu-Azubha indodakazi kaShilihi.
Yehooshaafaad boqor buu ka ahaa dalka Yahuudah, oo markuu boqor noqday wuxuu jiray shan iyo soddon sannadood, oo Yeruusaalemna shan iyo labaatan sannadood buu boqor ku ahaa, oo hooyadiis magaceedana waxaa la odhan jiray Casuubaah ina Shilxii.
32 Wahamba ngezindlela zikayise u-Asa njalo kazange aphambuke kuzo; wenza okulungileyo phambi kukaThixo.
Oo wuxuu ku socday jidkii aabbihiis Aasaa oo geesna ugama uu leexan, oo wixii Rabbiga hortiisa ku qummanaa ayuu sameeyey.
33 Izindawo zokukhonzela kazisuswanga njalo abantu babelokhu bengazimiselanga ngezinhliziyo zabo ngokupheleleyo kuNkulunkulu waboyise.
Habase yeeshee meelihii sarsare lama baabbi'in, oo dadkuna weli qalbigooda oo dhan ulama ay jeesan Ilaahii awowayaashood.
34 Ezinye izehlakalo ngombuso kaJehoshafathi kusukela ekuqaleni kusiya ekucineni, zilotshiwe embalini kaJehu, indodana kaHanani, yona elotshwe egwalweni lwamakhosi ako-Israyeli.
Haddaba Yehooshaafaad falimihiisii kale, intii hore iyo intii dambeba, waxay ku qoran yihiin taariikhdii Yeehuu ina Xanaanii taasoo ku qoran kitaabkii boqorrada dalka Israa'iil.
35 Ngokuqhubeka kwezikhathi, uJehoshafathi inkosi yakoJuda waba lesibopho asenza lo-Ahaziya inkosi yako-Israyeli, owayelecala lokwenza okubi.
Oo taas dabadeedna Yehooshaafaad oo ahaa boqorkii dalka Yahuudah xidhiidh buu la yeeshay Axasyaah oo ahaa boqorkii dalka Israa'iil kaasoo shuqulkiisii aad iyo aad u xumaa,
36 Wavumelana laye ukuba bakhe imikhumbi yokuthwala impahla zokuthengiselana. Ngemva kokuba isiyakhiwe e-Eziyoni-Gebheri,
oo wuxuu isagii kula heshiiyey inay samaystaan doonniyo Tarshiish u dhoofa, oo doonniyihii waxay ku samaysteen Cesyoon Geber.
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.
Markaasaa Eliiceser ina Dodaawaahuu oo ahaa reer Maareeshaah ayaa Yehooshaafaad wax ka sii sheegay oo yidhi, Heshiiska aad Axasyaah la heshiisay aawadiis ayaa Rabbigu u burburiyey shuqulkaagii. Oo doonniyihiina way wada jajabeen, oo way kari waayeen inay Tarshiish u dhoofaan.
