< 2 Imilando 28 >
1 U-Ahazi wayeleminyaka engamatshumi amabili ubudala nyakana esiba yinkosi, njalo wabusa eJerusalema okweminyaka elitshumi lesithupha. Kenzanga njengoyise uDavida, kazange enze okulungileyo emehlweni kaThixo.
Ahaz yana da shekara ashirin sa’ad da ya zama sarki, ya kuma yi mulki a Urushalima shekara goma sha shida. Ba kamar Dawuda kakansa ba, bai yi abin da yake daidai a gaban Ubangiji ba.
2 Wahamba ngezindlela zamakhosi ako-Israyeli njalo wabaza izithombe zokukhonza oBhali.
Ya yi tafiya a hanyoyin sarakunan Isra’ila ya kuma yi zubin gumaka domin a bauta wa Ba’al.
3 Watshisa imihlatshelo eSigodini saseBheni-Hinomu wanikela amadodana akhe emlilweni, elandela izindlela ezenyanyekayo zezizwe uThixo ayezixotshe mandulo kokufika kwabako-Israyeli.
Ya ƙone hadayu a Kwarin Ben Hinnom, ya kuma miƙa’ya’yansa maza a cikin wuta, yana bin hanyoyi banƙyama na al’umman da Ubangiji ya kora a gaban Isra’ilawa.
4 Wanikela imihlatshelo njalo watshisa impepha ezindaweni zokukhonzela phezu kwamaqaqa langaphansi kwazo zonke izihlahla eziyizithingithingi.
Ya miƙa hadayu, ya kuma ƙone turare a masujadan kan tudu, a bisa tuddai da kuma ƙarƙashin kowane itace mai inuwa.
5 Ngakho uThixo uNkulunkulu wakhe wamnikela enkosini yama-Aramu. Ama-Aramu amnqoba athumba abantu bakhe abanengi abaletha eDamaseko. Yena njalo wanikelwa ezandleni zenkosi yako-Israyeli, yona eyambulalela abantu abanengi kakhulu.
Saboda haka Ubangiji Allahnsa ya miƙa shi ga sarkin Aram. Arameyawa suka ci shi a yaƙi, suka kuma kwashe mutanensa da yawa a matsayin’yan kurkuku, suka kawo Damaskus. Ya kuma ba da shi ga sarkin Isra’ila, wanda ya jijji masa a yaƙi.
6 Kwathi ngelanga elilodwa uPhekha indodana kaRemaliya wabulala amabutho azinkulungwane ezingamatshumi amabili koJuda ngoba abakoJuda babemfulathele uThixo, uNkulunkulu waboyise.
A rana ɗaya Feka ɗan Remaliya ya kashe sojoji dubu ɗari da dubu ashirin a Yahuda, domin Yahuda sun yashe Ubangiji Allah na kakanninsu.
7 UZikhiri ibutho lako-Efrayimi, wabulala uMaseya indodana yenkosi, lo-Azirikhamu isikhulu somndlunkulu, kanye lo-Elikhana, owayengumsekeli wenkosi.
Zikri, wani jarumin Efraim, ya kashe Ma’asehiya ɗan sarki, Azrikam hafsa mai lura da fada, da kuma Elkana, mataimakin sarki.
8 Abako-Israyeli bathumba ezihlotsheni zabo zakoJuda omkabo, lamadodana lamadodakazi abazinkulungwane ezingamakhulu amabili. Babutha njalo impango enengi kakhulu, abayithwala babuyela layo eSamariya.
Isra’ilawa suka kame kamammu daga’yan’uwansu mata,’ya’ya maza da kuma’ya’ya mata dubu ɗari biyu. Suka kuma kwashe ganima mai yawan gaske, waɗanda suka kwasa zuwa Samariya.
9 Kodwa umphrofethi wenkosi okwakuthiwa ngu-Odedi wayekhonale, ngakho waphuma ukuyahlangabeza ibutho ekuphendukeni kwalo eSamariya. Wathi kulo, “Ngenxa yokuthi uThixo, uNkulunkulu waboyihlo wayethukuthelele abakoJuda, wabanikela ezandleni zenu. Kodwa lina selibabhubhise ngolaka oluze lwayathinta ezulwini.
Amma wani annabin Ubangiji mai suna Oded yana a can, sai ya fito don yă sadu da mayaƙa sa’ad da suke komowa zuwa Samariya. Ya ce musu, “Domin Ubangiji Allah na kakanninku yana fushi da Yahuda, ya ba da su cikin hannunku. Sai kuka kashe su cikin fushin da ya kai sama.
10 Khathesi selifuna ukuthi amadoda labesifazane bakoJuda laseJerusalema babe yizigqili zenu. Kodwa lina ngokwenu kalonanga yini kuThixo uNkulunkulu wenu na?
Yanzu kuma kuna niyya ku mai da maza da matan Yahuda da Urushalima bayinku. Amma ku ɗin ba ku da laifin zunubi ga Ubangiji Allahnku ne?
11 Lalelani kimi! Buyiselani amadoda akini eliwenze izibotshwa, ngoba ulaka lukaThixo olwesabekayo luphezu kwenu.”
To, ku saurare ni! Ku mai da’yan’uwanku da kuka kama a matsayin’yan kurkuku, gama fushin Ubangiji yana a kanku.”
12 Abanye babakhokheli bako-Efrayimi u-Azariya indodana kaJehohanani, loBherekhiya indodana kaMeshilemothi, loJehizikhiya indodana kaShalumi, kanye lo-Amasa indodana kaHadilayi bamelana lalabo ababevela empini bathi kubo,
Sai waɗansu shugabanni a Efraim, Azariya ɗan Yehohanan, Berekiya ɗan Meshillemot, Hezekiya ɗan Shallum da Amasa ɗan Hadlai, suka tasar wa waɗanda suke isowa daga yaƙi.
13 “Lingalethi lezozibotshwa lapha, ngoba kungenzeka sibe lecala phambi kukaThixo. Selidinga ukuthi lengezelele lelocala phezu kwesono sethu na? Ngoba icala lethu livele likhulu, njalo lentukuthelo yakhe eyesabekayo iphezu kwabako-Israyeli.”
Suka ce, “Dole ku kawo waɗannan’yan kurkukun a nan, ko kuwa za ku yi laifi a gaban Ubangiji. Kuna niyya ku ƙara ga zunubinmu da kuma laifinmu? Gama laifinmu ya riga ya yi yawa, kuma fushinsa mai tsanani yana a kan Isra’ila.”
14 Ngakho amabutho akhulula ababebotshiwe asebuyisela lempahla ezaziyimpango phambi kwezikhulu laphambi kwebandla.
Saboda haka sojoji suka ba da’yan kurkukun da ganima a gaban hafsoshi da dukan taron.
15 Amadoda ayeqanjwe ngamabizo abuyisela izibotshwa ezimpahleni zempango bagqokisa ababenqunu. Babanika izigqoko lamanyathelo, ukudla lokunathwayo, kanye lomuthi wokwelapha. Bonke ababuthakathaka babagadisa obabhemi. Ngakho babathatha bababuyisela kwabanye babo eJerikho, iDolobho lamaLala, basebebuyela eSamariya.
Sai mutanen da aka kira sunansu suka tashi, suka ɗauki kamammun, da ganimar, suka sa wa dukan waɗanda suke tsirara sutura. Suka sa musu sutura, suka ba su takalma, suka ba su abinci da abin sha, suka shafa musu mai. Suka hawar da dukan raunana a kan jakuna, suka kai su wurin’yan’uwansu a Yeriko, wato, Birnin Itatuwan Dabino, sa’an nan suka koma Samariya.
16 Ngalesosikhathi inkosi u-Ahazi yacela uncedo enkosini yase-Asiriya.
A lokacin nan Sarki Ahaz ya aika wurin sarkin Assuriya neman taimako.
17 Ama-Edomi ayesephendukile ezohlasela abakoJuda njalo asuka eqhuba izibotshwa,
Mutanen Edom sun sāke zuwa suka yaƙi Yahuda suka kuma kwashe’yan kurkuku,
18 kanti amaFilistiya lawo ngapha ayesehlasele amadolobho angaphansi kwamaqaqa kanye laseNegebi yakoJuda. Bathumba basebehlala khona eBhethi-Shemeshi, le-Ayijaloni leGederothi, kanye laseSokho, leThimina leGimizo lemizana eyayiseduze lalapho.
yayinda Filistiyawa suka kai hari wa garuruwa a gindin tuddai da kuma a Negeb na Yahuda. Suka kame su suka kuma zauna a Bet-Shemesh, Aiyalon da Gederot, haka ma Soko, Timna da Gimzo tare da ƙauyuka kewayensu.
19 UThixo wabatshaya abakoJuda ngoba u-Ahazi inkosi yako-Israyeli wayekhuthaze ukona kwabakoJuda watshengisela ukungathembeki okukhulu kuThixo.
Ubangiji ya ƙasƙantar da Yahuda saboda Ahaz sarkin Isra’ila, gama ya hadasa mugunta a Yahuda kuma ya kasance marar aminci ga Ubangiji.
20 UThigilathi-Philesa inkosi yase-Asiriya esikhundleni sokumsiza laye wafika wengezelela uhlupho.
Tiglat-Fileser sarkin Assuriya ya zo wurinsa, sai ya wahalar da sarki Ahaz maimakon taimakonsa.
21 U-Ahazi wathatha ezinye zezimpahla zasethempelini likaThixo lezinye azithatha endlini yomndlunkulu esigodlweni waze wathatha lezamakhosana wayaziqhubela inkosi yase-Asiriya, kodwa lakho lokhu akumncedanga.
Ahaz ya ɗauki waɗansu abubuwa daga haikalin Ubangiji da kuma daga fadan sarki da kuma daga sarakuna, ya ba da su ga sarkin Assuriya, amma wannan bai taimake shi ba.
22 Kwathi lanxa inkosi u-Ahazi iphakathi kobunzima, yandisa ukona kwayo kuThixo.
Cikin lokacin wahalarsa Sarki Ahaz ya ƙara zama marar aminci ga Ubangiji.
23 Yanikela imihlatshelo kubonkulunkulu baseDamaseko, ababeyehlule, ngoba yakhumbula yathi, “Njengoba onkulunkulu bamakhosi ama-Aramu bewancedile, ngizanikela imihlatshelo kubo ukuze bangisize lami.” Kodwa-ke kwahle kwaba yikuwa kwayo lokuchitheka kwabako-Israyeli.
Ya miƙa hadayu ga allolin Damaskus, waɗanda suka ci shi a yaƙi; gama ya yi tunani, “Da yake allolin sarakunan Aram sun taimake su, zan miƙa hadayu domin su taimake ni.” Amma suka zama sanadin fāɗuwarsa da kuma fāɗuwar dukan Isra’ila.
24 U-Ahazi wabutha zonke izitsha ethempelini likaNkulunkulu wazisusa. Wavala iminyango yethempeli likaThixo wasesakha ama-alithare kuwo wonke amajiko eJerusalema.
Ahaz ya tattara kayayyaki daga haikalin Allah ya kwashe su. Ya kulle ƙofofin haikalin Ubangiji ya kakkafa bagadai a kowace kusurwa a titin Urushalima.
25 Wakha izindawo zokukhonzela kuwo wonke amadolobho akoJuda ukuze atshisele onkulunkulu imihlatshelo; wathukuthelisa uThixo, uNkulunkulu wabokhokho babo.
A kowane gari a Yahuda, ya gina masujadan kan tudu don ƙone hadayu ga waɗansu alloli, ya kuma tsokane Ubangiji Allah na kakanninsa ya yi fushi.
26 Ezinye izehlakalo zombuso wakhe lezindlela zakhe zonke, kusukela ekuqaleni kuze kube sekupheleni, zilotshiwe egwalweni lwembali yamakhosi akoJuda lako-Israyeli.
Sauran ayyukan mulkinsa da dukan hanyoyinsa, daga farko zuwa ƙarshe, suna a rubuce a littafin sarakunan Yahuda da Isra’ila.
27 U-Ahazi waya ekuphumuleni kubokhokho bakhe wangcwatshwa labo emzini waseJerusalema, kodwa kabekwanga emathuneni amakhosi ako-Israyeli. UHezekhiya indodana yakhe wathatha isikhundla waba yinkosi.
Ahaz ya huta tare da kakanninsa, aka kuma binne shi a birnin Urushalima, amma ba a sa shi a makabartan sarakunan Isra’ila ba. Sai Hezekiya ɗansa ya gāje shi a matsayin sarki.
