2 Imilando 33
1 UManase waba yinkosi eleminyaka elitshumi lambili ubudala njalo wabusa eJerusalema okweminyaka engamatshumi amahlanu lanhlanu.
Ɛberɛ a Manase dii adeɛ no, na wadi mfirinhyia dumienu. Ɔdii ɔhene wɔ Yerusalem mfirinhyia aduonum enum.
2 Wenza ububi emehlweni kaThixo, elandela imikhuba eyenyanyekayo yezizwe uThixo ayezixotshile phambi kuka-Israyeli.
Ɔyɛɛ bɔne wɔ Awurade ani so, suasuaa abosonsomfoɔ aman nneyɛeɛ a ɛyɛ akyiwadeɛ. Ɔsuaa deɛ ɛnam so maa Awurade pamoo abosonsomfoɔ no firii asase a ɛda Israel anim no so no.
3 Wavuselela izindawo zokukhonzela ezazibhidlizwe nguyise uHezekhiya; waphinda wakhela oBhali ama-alithare kanye lezinsika zika-Ashera. Wakhothamela zonke izinkanyezi zezulu wazikhonza.
Ɔsane sisii asɔreeɛ a nʼagya Hesekia sɛee no no. Ɔsii afɔrebukyia maa Baal ahoni, sisii Asera afɔrebukyia. Ɔsane kotoo nsoromma a ɛwɔ ewiem no nyinaa, somm wɔn.
4 Wakha ama-alithare ethempelini likaThixo, lona uThixo ayekhulume ngalo wathi: “IBizo lami lizahlala eJerusalema kuze kube nininini.”
Mpo, ɔsisii abosonsom afɔrebukyia wɔ Awurade Asɔredan mu, baabi a Awurade aka sɛ, ɛhɔ na ɛsɛ sɛ wɔdi ne din ni afebɔɔ no.
5 Emagumeni womabili ethempeli likaThixo wakhela izinkanyezi zezulu ama-alithare.
Ɔsisii saa afɔrebukyia no wɔ Awurade Asɔredan no adihɔ mmienu hɔ, de maa ewiem nsoromma no.
6 Wanikela amadodana akhe emlilweni eSigodini saseBheni-Hinomu, wenza imilingo, ukuvumisa, lokuthakatha njalo wayahlahlula lakwabalamadlozi. Wenza okubi kakhulu phambi kukaThixo, wamthukuthelisa.
Manase de ɔno ankasa mmammarima bɔɔ afɔdeɛ wɔ ogya so wɔ Hinom Babarima Bɔnhwa mu. Ɔde ne ho hyɛɛ asumansɛm mu, kɔɔ abisa, yɛɛ abayisɛm, kɔɔ asamanfrɛfoɔ ne adunsifoɔ nkyɛn. Ɔyɛɛ nneɛma pii a ɛyɛ bɔne wɔ Awurade ani so, maa Awurade bo fuiɛ.
7 Wathatha isithombe ayesibazile wasibeka ethempelini likaNkulunkulu, lelo uNkulunkulu ayethe kuDavida lasendodaneni yakhe uSolomoni, “Kulelithempeli kanye laseJerusalema, engilikhethileyo ezizwaneni zako-Israyeli, ngizafaka iBizo lami kuze kube nininini.
Na Manase faa ohoni a wasene, de kɔsii Onyankopɔn Asɔredan mu. Ɔde kɔsii baabi korɔ no ara a Onyankopɔn ka kyerɛɛ Dawid ne ne babarima Salomo sɛ, “Wɔbɛdi me din ni wɔ ha afebɔɔ, asɔredan yi mu ne Yerusalem, kuropɔn a mayi afiri mmusuakuo a ɛwɔ Israel no nyinaa mu no.
8 Angiyikuyekela inyawo zabako-Israyeli zisuke kulelilizwe engalabela okhokho babo, nxa bezananzelela benze konke engabalaya ngakho okwemithetho, izimiso leziqondiso ezaphiwa uMosi.”
Sɛ Israelfoɔ di mʼahyɛdeɛ nyinaa so, me mmara a wɔnam Mose so maeɛ no nyinaa so a, merentwa wɔn asuo mfiri asase a mede maa wɔn agyanom no so.”
9 Kodwa uManase wakhokhelela abakoJuda labaseJerusalema ekulahlekeni, benza ububi okwedlula izizwe uThixo azibhubhisa mandulo kokufika kwabako-Israyeli.
Nanso, Manase dii ɔmanfoɔ a wɔwɔ Yuda ne Yerusalem anim, ma wɔyɛɛ bɔnetrasoɔ sene abosonsom aman a Awurade sɛee wɔn wɔ ɛberɛ a Israelfoɔ kɔɔ asase no so no.
10 UThixo wakhuluma kuManase labantu bakhe, kodwa kabalalelanga.
Awurade kasa kyerɛɛ Manase ne ne nkurɔfoɔ no, nanso wɔantie ne kɔkɔbɔ no mu biara.
11 Ngakho uThixo wabehlisela abalawuli bamabutho enkosi yase-Asiriya, abathumba uManase, bamfaka umkhala emakhaleni, bambopha ngamaketane ethusi bamusa eBhabhiloni.
Enti, Awurade maa Asiriafoɔ akodɔm bɛfaa Manase yɛɛ no ɔdeduani. Wɔde darewa hyɛɛ ne hwene mu, de kɔbere mfrafraeɛ nkɔnsɔnkɔnsɔn kyekyeree no, de no kɔɔ Babilonia.
12 Ekuhlulukelweni kwakhe wacela umusa kaThixo uNkulunkulu waboyise.
Na ɛberɛ a Manase wɔ ahokyere a emu yɛ den mu no, ɔpɛɛ Awurade, ne Onyankopɔn akyiri kwan, na ɔde ahobrɛaseɛ su frɛɛ nʼagyanom Onyankopɔn.
13 Ngakho uthe esekhuleka kuThixo, wezwa ukuncenga kwakhe walalela isicelo sakhe; wambuyisela eJerusalema ebukhosini bakhe. Ngalokho uManase wakwazi ukuthi uThixo unguNkulunkulu.
Na ɛberɛ a ɔbɔɔ mpaeɛ no, Awurade tiee no, na nʼabisadeɛ no kaa nʼakoma. Enti, Awurade maa Manase sane kɔɔ Yerusalem wɔ nʼahennie mu. Afei, Manase tee aseɛ sɛ, Awurade nko ara ne Onyankopɔn.
14 Ngemva kwalokho wakha kutsha umduli wangaphandle owoMuzi kaDavida, entshonalanga kwentombo yesigodini seGihoni, kusiya emangenelweni eSango leNhlanzi kubhoda uqaqa lwe-Ofeli; njalo wawakha waba mude kulakuqala. Wafaka abalawuli bamabutho kuwo wonke amadolobho alezinqaba koJuda.
Yei akyi, Manase sane sisii Dawid kuropɔn abɔntene afasuo; ɛfiri Gihon asutire atɔeɛ fam a ɛwɔ Kidron bɔnhwa mu, de kɔ Apataa Ɛpono ano, kɔsi Ofel bepɔ so a wɔsi maa ɛkɔɔ soro yie no. Na ɔduaa nʼasraafoɔ mpanimfoɔ no wɔ Yuda nkuropɔn a wɔabɔ ho ban no nyinaa mu.
15 Wasusa bonke onkulunkulu bezizweni wasusa lesithombe ethempelini likaThixo, lawo wonke ama-alithare ayewakhele eqaqeni lwethempeli kanye laseJerusalema; konke lokhu wakulahlela ngaphandle kwedolobho.
Manase sane tutuu amamfrafoɔ anyame fifirii mmepɔ no so. Ɔsane tutuu anyame ne ahoni no firii Awurade Asɔredan mu. Ɔbubuu afɔrebukyia a wasisi wɔ bepɔ so, baabi a Asɔredan no si, ne afɔrebukyia a ɛwɔ Yerusalem nyinaa, na ɔkɔto guu kuropɔn no mfikyire.
16 Wavuselela i-alithari likaThixo wenza iminikelo yobudlelwano leminikelo yokubonga phezu kwalo njalo watshela uJuda ukumkhonza uThixo, uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli.
Na ɔsane sii Awurade afɔrebukyia no, bɔɔ asomdwoeɛ afɔdeɛ ne aseda afɔdeɛ wɔ so. Afei, ɔhyɛɛ Yuda manfoɔ no nkuran sɛ, wɔnsom Awurade, Israel Onyankopɔn no.
17 Kodwa abantu baqhubeka benikela imihlatshelo ezindaweni zokukhonzela, kodwa benikela kuphela kuThixo uNkulunkulu wabo.
Nanso, na ɔmanfoɔ no gu so bɔ afɔdeɛ wɔ abosonsom asɔreeɛ so. Nanso, na wɔbɔ ma Awurade wɔn Onyankopɔn ara.
18 Ezinye izehlakalo ngombuso kaManase, kanye lomkhuleko wakhe kuNkulunkulu wakhe lamazwi akhulunywa ngababoni kuye ngebizo likaThixo, uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli, kulotshiwe embalini yamakhosi ako-Israyeli.
Manase adedie ho nsɛm nkaeɛ, ne mpaeɛ a ɔbɔɔ Onyankopɔn ne nsɛm a adehunumufoɔ ka kyerɛɛ no wɔ Awurade, Israel Onyankopɔn din mu no, wɔatwerɛ agu Israel ahemfo nwoma mu.
19 Umkhuleko wakhe lokuthi uNkulunkulu wakwamukela njani ukuncenga kwakhe, lokona kwakhe konke, kanye lokungathembeki, lalezozindawo zokukhonzela ayezakhile lezinsika zika-Ashera lezithombe engakazehlisi ngokuzithoba, kulotshiwe konke emibhalweni yababoni.
Manase mpaeɛ ne ɛkwan a Onyankopɔn faa so buaa no, ne ne bɔne ne atorɔ a ɔdiiɛ nyinaa ho nsɛm no, wɔatwerɛ agu adehunumufoɔ nwoma mu. Baabi a ɔsii abosonsom asɔreeɛ, sisii Asera afɔrebukyia ne ahoni ansa na ɔrenu ne ho no nso ka ho.
20 UManase waphumula labokhokho bakhe wangcwatshwa esigodlweni sakhe. U-Amoni indodana yakhe yathatha isikhundla sakhe.
Ɛberɛ a Manase wuiɛ no, wɔsiee no wɔ nʼahemfie. Na ne babarima Amon na ɔyɛɛ ɔhene a ɔdi hɔ.
21 U-Amoni wayeleminyaka engamatshumi amabili lambili ubudala esiba yinkosi, njalo wabusa eJerusalema okweminyaka emibili.
Ɛberɛ a Amon dii adeɛ no, na wadi mfirinhyia aduonu mmienu. Ɔdii ɔhene wɔ Yerusalem mfeɛ mmienu.
22 Wenza ububi phambi kukaThixo, njengalokhu okwakwenziwe nguyise uManase. U-Amoni wakhonza njalo wanikela imihlatshelo kuzozonke izithombe ezazenziwe nguManase.
Ɔyɛɛ bɔne wɔ Awurade ani so, sɛdeɛ nʼagya Manase yɛeɛ no. Ɔsomm ahoni a nʼagya yɛeɛ no nyinaa, bɔɔ afɔdeɛ maa wɔn.
23 Kodwa kenzanga njengoyise uManase, ngoba yena kazehlisanga phansi kukaThixo; u-Amoni wenza amacala ngokuphindiweyo.
Nanso, wansɛ nʼagya Manase, ɛfiri sɛ, wammrɛ ne ho ase amma Awurade. Mmom, Amon yɛɛ bɔne maa ɛtraa so.
24 Izikhulu zika-Amoni zathama icebo zambulalela esigodlweni sakhe.
Akyire yi, Amon no ara mpanimfoɔ pamm ne tiri so, kumm no wɔ nʼahemfie.
25 Kodwa abantu belizwe babulala bonke labo ababethame amacebo ngenkosi u-Amoni, babeka uJosiya indodana yakhe wathatha ubukhosi.
Nanso, ɔmanfoɔ a wɔwɔ asase no so kunkumm wɔn a wɔbɔɔ pɔ tiaa ɔhene Amon no, na wɔsii ne babarima Yosia ɔhene, sii nʼanan mu.
