2 Imilando 21
1 Ngakho uJehoshafathi waphumula labokhokho bakhe, wangcwatshwa kanye labo emzini kaDavida uyise. UJehoramu indodana yakhe wabusa esikhundleni sakhe.
Ɛberɛ a Yehosafat wuiɛ no, wɔsiee no wɔ nʼagyanom nkyɛn wɔ Dawid kurom. Na ne babarima Yehoram dii nʼadeɛ sɛ ɔhene.
2 Abafowabo bakaJehoramu, amadodana kaJehoshafathi, babengo-Azariya, loJehiyeli, loZakhariya, lo-Azariyahu, loMikhayeli kanye loShefathiya. Bonke laba babengamadodana kaJehoshafathi inkosi yako-Israyeli.
Yehoram nuanom mmarima a na wɔyɛ Yehosafat mmammarima foforɔ bi no ne Asaria, Yehiel, Sakaria, Asaria, Mikael ne Sefatia.
3 Uyise wayebanike izipho ezinengi zesiliva lezegolide kanye lezinye impahla eziligugu, lamadolobho abiyelweyo koJuda, kodwa ubukhosi wayebunike uJehoramu ngoba eyindodana yakhe yamazibulo.
Wɔn agya maa wɔn mu biara akyɛdeɛ a ɛsom bo, a ɛyɛ dwetɛ, sikakɔkɔɔ ne aboɔdenneɛ, na afei, ɔde Yuda nkuro a wɔabɔ ho ban no bi kyekyɛɛ wɔn. Na ɛsiane sɛ Yehoram yɛ abakan enti, ɔbɛyɛɛ ɔhene.
4 UJehoramu esengenile esikhundleni sikayise waqinisa umbuso wakhe, wabulala bonke abafowabo ngenkemba kanye lamanye amakhosana ako-Israyeli.
Na ɛberɛ a Yehoram ahennie timiiɛ no, ɔkunkumm ne nuammarima no nyinaa ne Israelfoɔ ntuanofoɔ bi.
5 UJehoramu waba yinkosi eleminyaka engamatshumi amathathu lambili, njalo wabusa eJerusalema okweminyaka eyisificaminwembili.
Ɛberɛ a Yehoram dii adeɛ no, na wadi mfirinhyia aduasa mmienu. Na ɔdii adeɛ Yerusalem mfirinhyia nwɔtwe.
6 Walandela izindlela zamakhosi ako-Israyeli, njengalokho okwakwenziwe ngabendlu ka-Ahabi, ngoba wathatha indodakazi ka-Ahabi. Wenza okubi phambi kukaThixo.
Na Yehoram yɛɛ sɛdeɛ Israel ahemfo yɛeɛ. Na ɔyɛ otirimuɔdenfoɔ te sɛ ɔhene Ahab, ɛfiri sɛ, na waware Ahab mmammaa no mu baako. Enti Yehoram yɛɛ bɔne wɔ Awurade ani so.
7 Lanxa kunjalo, ngenxa yesivumelwano uThixo ayesenze loDavida, uThixo kathandanga ukuyidiliza indlu kaDavida. Wayethembise ukumbekela isibane yena kanye lesizukulwane sakhe nini lanini.
Nanso, na Awurade mpɛ sɛ ɔsɛe Dawid ahennie nnidisoɔ, ɛfiri sɛ, na ɔne Dawid ayɛ apam ahyɛ bɔ sɛ, nʼasefoɔ bɛkɔ so adi ɔhene afebɔɔ.
8 Ngensuku zikaJehoramu, abase-Edomi bahlamukela uJuda babeka eyabo inkosi.
Yehoram berɛ so na Edomfoɔ sɔre tiaa Yuda, na wɔsii wɔn ankasa wɔn ɔhene.
9 Ngakho uJehoramu waya khonale lezikhulu zakhe lazozonke izinqola zakhe zempi. Abase-Edomi bamhanqa kanye labalawuli bezinqola zakhe zempi, kodwa wavuka ebusuku waphunyuka.
Enti, Yehoram de akodɔm ne ne nteaseɛnam nyinaa kɔto hyɛɛ Edom so. Edomfoɔ twaa ɔno ne ne nteaseɛnamkafoɔ ho hyiaeɛ, nanso ɔfaa anadwo sum mu dwaneeɛ.
10 Kuze kube lamhla abase-Edomi balokhu behlamukela uJuda. AbaseLibhina labo bahlamuka ngasolesi isikhathi, ngoba uJehoramu wayefulathele uThixo, uNkulunkulu waboyise.
Edom ade ne ho a ɔnhyɛ Yuda ase de bɛsi ɛnnɛ. Saa ɛberɛ korɔ no ara mu, Libna kuro tee atua, ɛfiri sɛ, na Yehoram atwe ne ho afiri Awurade, nʼagyanom Onyankopɔn ho.
11 Njalo wamisa izindawo zokukhonzela emaqaqeni akoJuda, wenza abaseJerusalema ukuba bakhonze izithombe, wadukisa abakoJuda.
Na wasisi abosonsomfoɔ asɔreeɛ wɔ Yuda mmepɔ asase so, ama nnipa a wɔwɔ Yerusalem ne Yuda akɔsom abosonsomfoɔ anyame.
12 UJehoramu wemukela incwadi eyayivela ku-Elija umphrofethi isithi: “Nanku okutshiwo nguThixo, uNkulunkulu kayihlo uDavida, uthi: ‘Kawuhambanga ezindleleni zikaJehoshafathi uyihlo lezika-Asa inkosi yakoJuda.
Na odiyifoɔ Elia twerɛɛ saa krataa yi kɔmaa Yehoram: “Asɛm a Awurade, wʼagya Dawid Onyankopɔn seɛ nie: ‘Woanni wʼagya Yehosafat anaa wo nana Yudahene Asa nhwɛsoɔpa so.
13 Kodwa ulandele izindlela zamakhosi ako-Israyeli, waholela abakoJuda labantu baseJerusalema ekuzingcoliseni njengalokhu indlu ka-Ahabi eyakwenzayo njalo usubulele abafowenu abendlu kayihlo ababengcono kulawe.
Mmom, woayɛ omumuyɛfoɔ sɛ Israel ahemfo. Woama Yerusalemfoɔ ne Yudafoɔ akɔsom ahoni te sɛ deɛ ɔhene Ahab yɛɛ wɔ Israel no. Na mpo, woakunkum wʼankasa wo nuanom mmarima a na wɔdi mu sene wo.
14 Ngakho-ke uThixo usezabatshaya abantu bakini lamadodana akho, labomkabo lakho konke okungokwakho, ngesidutshulo esikhulu.
Enti afei, Awurade de ɔhaw kɛseɛ bɛba wo, wo nkurɔfoɔ, wo mma, wo yerenom ne biribiara a ɛyɛ wo dea so.
15 Lawe uqobo uzagula umkhuhlane omubi owesifo samathumbu akho, amathumbu akho aze ahotshuke ngokuhamba kwensuku ngenxa yesifo.’”
Wʼankasa deɛ, wɔde nsono mu yadeɛ a ɛyɛ ya yie bɛto wo so kɔsi sɛ wʼayamudeɛ bɛtu apue.’”
16 UThixo wamvusela uJehoramu ulaka lwamaFilistiya lama-Arabhu ayehlala eduzane lamaKhushi.
Na Awurade kaa Filistifoɔ ne Arabfoɔ a na wɔte bɛn Etiopiafoɔ so sɛ wɔnkɔto nhyɛ Yehoram so.
17 Bahlasela koJuda, bangena khona bathutha zonke impahla ababezitholile esigodlweni senkosi, labantwabayo labomkayo. Akulandodana eyasalayo ngaphandle kuka-Ahaziya isicino sabo.
Wɔbɔɔ nsra kɔɔ Yuda so, kɔbubuu ne banbɔdeɛ nyinaa, foo aboɔden nneɛma a ɛwɔ ahemfie hɔ a ne mmammarima ne ne yerenom ka ho. Ne babarima kumaa Yehoahas nko na wɔgyaa no.
18 Ngemva kwakho konke lokhu uThixo wehlisela uJehoramu isifo samathumbu esingelaphekiyo.
Yei akyi na Awurade maa nsono mu yadeɛ a ano yɛ den bɔɔ Yehoram.
19 Ngokuqhubeka kwesikhathi ekupheleni komnyaka wesibili, amathumbu akhe ahotshuka ngenxa yesifo, wafa esebuhlungwini obukhulu. Abantu bakhe abazange babase umlilo wokumhlonipha njengalokhu ababekwenza kuboyise.
Ɛberɛ no mu ara, mfeɛ mmienu akyi, yadeɛ no maa nʼayamdeɛ pueeɛ, na ɔwuu ɔyea mu. Ne nkurɔfoɔ ammɔ ogyatannaa kɛseɛ, amfa anhyɛ no animuonyam wɔ nʼayiyɛ mu sɛdeɛ wɔyɛ maa nʼagyanom no.
20 UJehoramu waba yinkosi eleminyaka engamatshumi amathathu lambili, njalo wabusa eJerusalema okweminyaka eyisificaminwembili. Wafa engakhalelwa muntu, wabekwa eMzini kaDavida, kodwa kungesikho emangcwabeni amakhosi.
Yehoram dii adeɛ no, na wadi mfirinhyia aduasa mmienu, na ɔdii adeɛ Yerusalem mfirinhyia nwɔtwe. Ɔwuiɛ no, anyɛ obiara awerɛhoɔ. Wɔsiee no Dawid kurom, nanso ɛnyɛ adehyeɛ asieeɛ.
