2 Imilando 20
1 Ngemva kwalokho amaMowabi lama-Amoni kanye labanye bamaMewuni baphuma impi ukuba bayehlasela uJehoshafathi.
Keyinki waⱪitlarda xundaⱪ boldiki, Moabiylar, Ammoniylar wǝ Maoniylardin bǝziliri birlixip kelip Yǝⱨoxafatⱪa ⱨujum ⱪilixⱪa qiⱪti.
2 Amanye amadoda aya kuJehoshafathi afika athi kuye, “Kulempi enkulu ezayo ukuzakuhlasela evela ngase-Edomi, ngaphetsheya kolwandle. IsiseHazazoni Thamari” (okuyikuthi, Eni-Gedi).
[Qaparmǝnlǝr] kelip Yǝⱨoxafatⱪa: — [Ɵlük] dengizning u ⱪetidin, yǝni Edomdin siligǝ ⱨujum ⱪilƣili zor bir ⱪoxun qiⱪip kǝldi; mana, ular Ⱨazazon-Tamarda, dedi (Ⱨazazon-Tamar yǝnǝ «Ən-Gǝdi» dǝpmu atilidu).
3 Ngokwethuka, uJehoshafathi wazimisela ukumdinga uThixo, wamemezela ukuba akuzilwe ukudla kulolonke elakoJuda.
Buni angliƣan Yǝⱨoxafat ⱪorⱪup, Pǝrwǝrdigarni izdǝxkǝ niyǝt baƣlap, pütün Yǝⱨuda tǝwǝsidǝ «roza tutuximiz kerǝk» dǝp jakarlidi.
4 Abantu bakoJuda baqoqana bahlangana bezodinga usizo kuThixo, lakanye baphuma kuyo yonke imizi yakoJuda.
Yǝⱨudalar ǝmdi Pǝrwǝrdigardin yardǝm tiligili yiƣildi; hǝlⱪ Yǝⱨudaning ⱨǝrⱪaysi xǝⱨǝrliridin qiⱪip Pǝrwǝrdigardin yardǝm tilǝxkǝ kelixti.
5 Ngakho uJehoshafathi wema phambi kwebandla lakoJuda lelaseJerusalema ethempelini likaThixo phambi kweguma elitsha
Yǝⱨoxafat Yǝⱨuda wǝ Yerusalemdiki jamaǝt arisiƣa qiⱪip, Pǝrwǝrdigar ɵyining yengi ⱨoylisining aldida ɵrǝ turup
6 wathi, “Oh Thixo, Nkulunkulu wabokhokho, kakusuwe yini uNkulunkulu osezulwini? Ubusa phezu kwemibuso yezizwe zonke. Amandla asesandleni sakho, njalo kakho ongamelana lawe.
mundaⱪ dua ⱪilip: — «I Pǝrwǝrdigar, ata-bowilirimizning Hudasi, Sǝn ǝrxtǝ turƣuqi Huda, barliⱪ ǝl-mǝmlikǝtlǝrning üstidin ⱨɵküm sürgüqi ǝmǝsmiding? Sening ⱪolung küq-ⱪudrǝtkǝ tolƣandur, ⱨeqkim Seni tosalmaydu.
7 Oh Nkulunkulu wethu, awubaxotshanga ababekuleli lizwe phambi kwabantu bakho bako-Israyeli wabanika ukuba libe ngelabo nini lanini abesizukulwane sika-Abhrahama umngane wakho na?
I Hudayimiz, Sǝn bu zemindiki aⱨalini Ɵz hǝlⱪing Israillar aldidin ⱪoƣlap, uni Ɵz dostung Ibraⱨimning nǝsligǝ mǝnggülük miras ⱪilip bǝrgǝn ǝmǝsmiding?
8 Sebehlale kulo njalo sebakhe indawo yokukhonzela yeBizo lakho, besithi,
Ular xu yǝrdǝ turdi ⱨǝm xu yǝrdǝ Sening namingƣa atap bir muⱪǝddǝshana selip:
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.’
«Mubada beximizƣa birǝr balayi’apǝt kǝlsǝ, mǝyli u ⱪiliq, jaza, waba, aqarqiliⱪ bolsun, ⱪiyinqiliⱪta ⱪalƣan waⱪtimizda, muxu ɵy, yǝni Sening aldingda turup, Sanga murajiǝt ⱪilsaⱪ (qünki Sening naming muxu ɵydidur), Sǝn anglaysǝn wǝ ⱪutⱪuzisǝn» degǝnidi.
10 Kodwa khathesi nanka amadoda ama-Amoni lamaMowabi labeNtabeni yaseSeyiri, abelizwe owalela u-Israyeli ukuba alinqobe ekuphumeni kwakhe eGibhithe; okwabangela ukuthi babatshiye abaze bababhubhisa.
Əmdi mana, bu yǝrgǝ Ammoniylar, Moabiylar wǝ Seir teƣidikilǝr besip keliwatidu! Ilgiri Israillar Misir zeminidin qiⱪⱪan qaƣda Sǝn Israillarning ularƣa tajawuz ⱪilixiƣa yol ⱪoymiƣaniding; u qaƣda Israillar ularni yoⱪatmay u yǝrdin aylinip ɵtkǝn.
11 Khangela ukuthi khathesi baphindisela ngokunganani ngokusemuka isipho owasipha sona ukuba sibe yilifa lethu.
Əmdi ⱪara, ⱨazir ularning yahxiliⱪimizni ⱪandaⱪ yol bilǝn ⱪayturmaⱪqi boluwatⱪiniƣa! Ular bizni Sǝn bizgǝ miras ⱪilip bǝrgǝn bu zemindin ⱪoƣlap qiⱪarmaⱪqi boluwatidu.
12 Oh Nkulunkulu wethu, awuyikubahlulela na? Ngoba asilamandla okumelana lebutho elikhulu kangaka elisihlaselayo. Asikwazi esingakwenza, kodwa amehlo ethu aphezu kwakho.”
I Hudayimiz, Sǝn ularning üstidin ⱨɵküm qiⱪarmamsǝn? Qünki bizning bizgǝ ⱨujum ⱪilixⱪa keliwatⱪan bu zor ⱪoxun bilǝn ⱪarxilaxⱪudǝk küqimiz yoⱪ; nemǝ ⱪiliximiznimu bilmǝy ⱪalduⱪ; lekin bizning kɵzimiz Sanga tikilip turmaⱪta» — dedi.
13 Wonke amadoda akoJuda, labomkabo labantwabawo lensane, bema lapho phambi kukaThixo.
Bu qaƣda pütün Yǝⱨuda hǝlⱪi, ularning ⱪuqaⱪtiki baliliri, hotun bala-qaⱪilirining ⱨǝmmisi Pǝrwǝrdigarning aldida turatti.
14 UMoya kaThixo wehlela kuJahaziyeli indodana kaZakhariya, indodana kaBhenaya, indodana kaJeyiyeli, indodana kaMathaniya, umLevi oyisizukulwane sika-Asafi, emi phambi kwebandla.
Wǝ xu pǝyttǝ Pǝrwǝrdigarning Roⱨi jamaǝtning otturisida turƣan Lawiylardin Asafning ǝwladi bolƣan Mattaniyaning qǝwrisi, Jǝiyǝlning ǝwrisi, Binayaning nǝwrisi, Zǝkǝriyaning oƣli Yaⱨaziyǝlgǝ qüxti;
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.
U: — I pütün Yǝⱨuda hǝlⱪi, silǝr Yerusalemda turuwatⱪanlar wǝ padixaⱨ Yǝⱨoxafat, ⱪulaⱪ selinglar! Pǝrwǝrdigar silǝrgǝ mundaⱪ dǝydu: — «Silǝr bu zor ⱪoxundin ⱪorⱪup kǝtmǝnglar wǝ alaⱪzadǝ bolup kǝtmǝnglar; qünki bu jǝng silǝrningki ǝmǝs, bǝlki Hudaning Ɵziningkidur.
16 Kusasa hambani liyejamelana labo. Bona bazakhwela ngokhalo lwaseZizi, lina lizabathola ekucineni kodonga eNkangala yaseJeruweli.
Ətǝ ularƣa ⱨujum ⱪilixⱪa qiⱪinglar; mana, ular Ziz dawanidin qiⱪip kelidu wǝ silǝr ularni Yǝruǝl qɵlining aldidiki jilƣa eƣizida uqritisilǝr.
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.’”
Silǝr bu dɵrǝm jǝngdǝ uruxuxunglarning ⱨajiti bolmaydu; pǝⱪǝt sǝpkǝ tizilip turunglar, silǝr bilǝn billǝ bolƣan Pǝrwǝrdigarning nijat-nusritini kɵrünglar! I Yǝⱨuda, i Yerusalemdikilǝr, ⱪorⱪmanglar, alaⱪzadimu bolup kǝtmǝnglar; ǝtǝ ularƣa ⱨujum ⱪilixⱪa qiⱪinglar, Pǝrwǝrdigar qoⱪum silǝr bilǝn billǝ bolidu!» — dedi.
18 UJehoshafathi wakhothama ubuso buphansi kanti njalo bonke abakoJuda labaseJerusalema bawela phansi ngobuso bemkhonza uThixo.
Bu gǝpni anglap Yǝⱨoxafat bexini yǝrgǝ tǝgküzüp tizlandi wǝ barliⱪ Yǝⱨuda hǝlⱪi ⱨǝm Yerusalemdikilǝr Pǝrwǝrdigar aldida düm yiⱪilip Pǝrwǝrdigarƣa sǝjdǝ ⱪildi.
19 Ngakho abanye abaLevi bamaKhohathi, lamaKhora bema bamdumisa uThixo, uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli, ngelizwi eliphakemeyo okuphezulu.
Koⱨat ǝwladi wǝ Koraⱨ ǝwladi iqidiki Lawiylardin bolƣanlar orunliridin turuxup intayin küqlük awaz bilǝn Israilning Hudasi Pǝrwǝrdigarni mǝdⱨiyilǝxti.
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.”
Pütün hǝlⱪ ǝtisi ⱪaⱪ sǝⱨǝrdǝ turup Tǝkoa qɵligǝ ⱪarap atlandi; ular atlinip ketiwatⱪanda, Yǝⱨoxafat ornidin turup ularƣa: — I Yǝⱨuda hǝlⱪi, i Yerusalemdikilǝr, gepimgǝ ⱪulaⱪ selinglar! Hudayinglar Pǝrwǝrdigarƣa tayininglar, qoⱪum mǝzmut turƣuzulisilǝr; Uning pǝyƣǝmbǝrlirigǝ ixininglar, yolunglar qoⱪum rawan bolidu! — dedi.
21 Ngemva kokubuza abantu, uJehoshafathi wakhetha amadoda okuhlabelela uThixo lokumdumisa ngenxa yenkazimulo yobungcwele bakhe bekhokhele amabutho, besithi: “Mbongeni uThixo, ngoba uthando lwakhe lumi nininini.”
Andin u hǝlⱪ bilǝn obdan mǝsliⱨǝtlixip, Pǝrwǝrdigarning muⱪǝddǝs bǝⱨǝywǝtlikini mǝdⱨiyilǝp, Uningƣa atap ƣǝzǝl-küy eytidiƣanlarni: «Silǝr Pǝrwǝrdigarƣa rǝⱨmǝt-tǝxǝkkür eytinglar, qünki Uning ɵzgǝrmǝs muⱨǝbbiti mǝnggülüktur!» dǝp oⱪuxⱪa tǝyinlǝp, ⱪoxunning aldida mangdurdi.
22 Bathi beqalisa ukuhlabelela njalo bedumisa, uThixo wabeka abantu bokucathamela abase-Amoni labase-Mowabi labaseNtabeni iSeyiri ababedinga ukuhlasela uJuda, behlulwa.
Ular tǝntǝnǝ ⱪilip ⱨǝmdusana oⱪuxi bilǝn, Pǝrwǝrdigar Yǝⱨuda hǝlⱪigǝ ⱨujum ⱪilixⱪa qiⱪⱪan Ammoniylar, Moabiylar wǝ Seir teƣidikilǝrgǝ pistirma ⱪoxunni ǝwǝtip, ularni tarmar ⱪildurdi.
23 Amadoda ako-Amoni lawamaMowabi avukela amadoda ayevela eNtabeni yaseSeyiri ukuba bawabulale bawatshabalalise. Ngemva kokuba sebeqedile ukubulala abaseSeyiri, banceda ngokubulalana bodwa.
Xuning bilǝn Ammoniylar bilǝn Moabiylar Seir teƣidikilǝrgǝ ⱨujum ⱪilixⱪa ɵtti, ularni birini ⱪoymay ⱪiriwǝtti; ular Seir teƣidikilǝrni ⱪirip tügǝtkǝndin keyin yǝnǝ ɵzliri bir-birini ⱪirƣin ⱪilixⱪa qüxkǝnidi.
24 Amadoda akoJuda athe efika endaweni emalungana lenkangala bakhangela lapho okwakulebutho elikhulu khona babona ngezidumbu zelekene phansi, kungekho loyedwa owayebalekile.
Yǝⱨudalar qɵldiki kɵzǝtgaⱨⱪa kelip xu zor ⱪoxun tǝrǝpkǝ ⱪarisa, mana ⱪeqip ⱪutulƣan birmu adǝm yoⱪ bolup, ⱨǝmmǝ yǝrni ɵlük ⱪaplap kǝtkǝnidi.
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.
Yǝⱨoxafat ɵzining adǝmliri bilǝn düxmǝndin olja bulang-talang ⱪilixⱪa kǝlgǝndǝ, ular ɵlüklǝr bilǝn billǝ nurƣun mal-mülük wǝ kɵp ⱪimmǝtlik buyumlarni tapti. Ular salduruwalƣanlirining toliliⱪidin elip kitǝlmǝy ⱪaldi; olja xunqǝ kɵp bolƣaqⱪa, uni yiƣiwelixⱪa üq kün kǝtti.
26 Ngosuku lwesine babuthana eSigodini saseBherakha, lapho abadumisela khona uThixo. Kungenxa yalokho yonale indawo yabizwa ngokuthi iSigodi saseBherakha kuze kube lamuhla.
Ular tɵtinqi küni Bǝrakaⱨ jilƣisiƣa yiƣilip, Pǝrwǝrdigarƣa ⱨǝmdusana oⱪup mubarǝklidi; xunga u yǝr taki bügüngǝ ⱪǝdǝr «Bǝrakaⱨ jilƣisi» dǝp atilip kǝlmǝktǝ.
27 Ngakho wonke amadoda akoJuda lawaseJerusalema abuyela ngokuthokoza eJerusalema, bekhokhelwa nguJehoshafathi ngoba uThixo wayebenzele lokho okwakubajabulisile phezu kwezitha zabo.
Andin barliⱪ Yǝⱨudadikilǝr wǝ Yerusalemdikilǝr Yǝⱨoxafatning baxlamqiliⱪida huxal-huram bolup Yerusalemƣa ⱪaytti; qünki Pǝrwǝrdigar ularni düxmǝnliri üstidin ƣalib ⱪilip huxalliⱪⱪa qɵmdürgǝnidi.
28 Bangena eJerusalema baya ethempelini likaThixo betshaya imihubhe lemiqangala lamacilongo.
Ular Yerusalemƣa tǝmbur, qiltar wǝ kanaylar qelip kelip, Pǝrwǝrdigarning ɵyigǝ kirdi.
29 Ukwesaba uNkulunkulu kwehlela phezu kwayo yonke imibuso emazweni besizwa ngokulwa kukaThixo esilwa lezitha zika-Israyeli.
Barliⱪ ǝl-mǝmlikǝtlǝr Pǝrwǝrdigarning Israilning düxmǝnlirigǝ ⱪarxi qiⱪip jǝng ⱪilƣanliⱪini angliƣanda, Hudaning wǝⱨimisi ularning üstigǝ basti.
30 Lakanye umbuso kaJehoshafathi waba lokuthula, ngoba uNkulunkulu wakhe wayemnike ukuphumula inxa zonke.
Xuning bilǝn Yǝⱨoxafatning padixaⱨliⱪi tinq-asayixliⱪta boldi; uning Hudasi uning tɵt ǝtrapini tinq ⱪilƣanidi.
31 Ngakho uJehoshafathi wabusa koJuda. Waba yinkosi yakoJuda eleminyaka engamatshumi amathathu lanhlanu, wabusa eJerusalema okweminyaka engamatshumi amabili lanhlanu. Unina wayengu-Azubha indodakazi kaShilihi.
Xundaⱪ ⱪilip Yǝⱨoxafat Yǝⱨuda üstigǝ ⱨɵküm sürdi. U tǝhtkǝ qiⱪⱪan qaƣda ottuz bǝx yaxta idi; u Yerusalemda yigirmǝ bǝx yil sǝltǝnǝt ⱪildi. Uning anisining ismi Azubaⱨ bolup, u Xilⱨining ⱪizi idi.
32 Wahamba ngezindlela zikayise u-Asa njalo kazange aphambuke kuzo; wenza okulungileyo phambi kukaThixo.
Yǝⱨoxafat ⱪaymay atisi Asaning yolida mengip, Pǝrwǝrdigarning nǝziridǝ durus bolƣanni ⱪildi.
33 Izindawo zokukhonzela kazisuswanga njalo abantu babelokhu bengazimiselanga ngezinhliziyo zabo ngokupheleleyo kuNkulunkulu waboyise.
Pǝⱪǝt «yuⱪiri jaylar»la yoⱪitilmiƣanidi; hǝlⱪ tehiqǝ kɵngüllirini ata-bowilirining Hudasiƣa mayil ⱪilmiƣanidi.
34 Ezinye izehlakalo ngombuso kaJehoshafathi kusukela ekuqaleni kusiya ekucineni, zilotshiwe embalini kaJehu, indodana kaHanani, yona elotshwe egwalweni lwamakhosi ako-Israyeli.
Yǝⱨoxafatning ⱪalƣan ixliri bolsa, mana baxtin ahiriƣiqǝ «Yǝⱨuda wǝ Israil padixaⱨlirining tarihnamisi»ƣa kirgüzülgǝn «Ⱨananining oƣli Yǝⱨuning bayan sɵzliri»dǝ pütülgǝndur.
35 Ngokuqhubeka kwezikhathi, uJehoshafathi inkosi yakoJuda waba lesibopho asenza lo-Ahaziya inkosi yako-Israyeli, owayelecala lokwenza okubi.
Bu ixlardin keyin Yǝⱨuda padixaⱨi Yǝⱨoxafat tola rǝzil ixlarni ⱪilƣan Israil padixaⱨi Aⱨaziya bilǝn ittipaⱪ tüzdi.
36 Wavumelana laye ukuba bakhe imikhumbi yokuthwala impahla zokuthengiselana. Ngemva kokuba isiyakhiwe e-Eziyoni-Gebheri,
Yǝⱨoxafat Tarxixⱪa baridiƣan kemilǝrni yasaxⱪa uning bilǝn xiriklǝxti; xu kemilǝrni ular Əzion-Gǝbǝrdǝ yasatti.
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.
U qaƣda Marǝxaⱨliⱪ Dodawaⱨuning oƣli Əliezǝr Yǝⱨoxafatni ǝyiblǝp uningƣa bexarǝt berip: — Aⱨaziya bilǝn ittipaⱪ tüzgining üqün Pǝrwǝrdigar sening yasiƣanliringni buzuwetidu» dedi. Dǝrwǝⱪǝ, keyinki waⱪitlarda u kemilǝr buzƣunqiliⱪⱪa uqrap Tarxixⱪa mangalmidi.
