Ya aikata mugunta a gaban Ubangiji, bai juya ga barin zunuban Yerobowam ɗan Nebat ba, wanda ya sa Isra’ila ta aikata, ya ci gaba da yinsu.
12 Mayelana lezinye izehlakalo zombuso Jowashi lakho konke akwenzayo lokuphumelela kwakhe lezimpi azilwa lo-Amaziya inkosi yamaJuda akulotshwanga encwadini yembali yamakhosi ako-Israyeli na?

13 UJowashi waphumula laboyisemkhulu, ubukhosi bakhe bathathwa nguJerobhowamu. UJowashi wangcwatshwa eSamariya ndawonye lamakhosi abako-Israyeli.
Yowash ya huta da kakanninsa, Yerobowam kuwa ya gāje shi. Aka binne Yehowash a Samariya tare da sarakunan Isra’ila.
14 U-Elisha wayegula umkhuhlane owacina usumbulala. UJowashi inkosi yako-Israyeli wahamba ukuyambona wafika wakhala wathi, “Baba! Baba! Izinqola zokulwa labagadi bamabhiza ako-Israyeli!”
To, Elisha ya kamu da ciwon da ya kashe shi. Yowash sarkin Isra’ila ya gangara don yă gan shi, ya kuma yi kuka dominsa. Ya yi kuka yana cewa, “Babana! Babana, keken yaƙin Isra’ila da mahayan dawakanta!”
15 U-Elisha wathi, “Thatha idandili lemitshoko.” Wakwenza lokho.
Elisha ya ce wa Yehowash, “Ka samo baka da kibiyoyi,” ya kuwa yi haka.
16 Wathi enkosini yako-Israyeli, “Phatha idandili lelo ngezandla.” Yathi isiliphethe, u-Elisha wabeka izandla zakhe phezu kwezandla zenkosi.
Sai ya ce wa Yehowash sarkin Isra’ila, “Ka ɗauki baka a hannunka.” Da ya ɗauka, sai Elisha ya sa hannunsa a hannuwan sarki.
17 U-Elisha wasesithi, “Vula iwindi elisempumalanga.” Yalivula, u-Elisha wathi, “Tshoka!” Yatshoka. U-Elisha wasememeza eqonqosela wathi, “Umtshoko wokunqoba kaThixo, umtshoko wokunqoba ele-Aramu! Uzabhubhisa ama-Aramu e-Afekhi.”
Ya ce masa, “Ka buɗe taga wajen gabas,” sai ya buɗe. Sai Elisha ya ce, “Ka harba!” Sai ya harba. Elisha ya ce, “Kibiyar nasara ta Ubangiji, kibiyar nasara a kan Aram! Za ka hallaka Arameyawa sarai a Afek.”
18 Wasesithi enkosini, “Thatha imitshoko yakho,” inkosi yayithatha. U-Elisha wasesithi kuyo, “Tshaya iphansi leli,” inkosi yatshaya iphansi kwaze kwaba kathathu yasisima.
Sa’an nan ya ce, “Ka ɗauki kibiyoyi,” sai sarkin ya ɗauko. Sai Elisha ya ce, “Ka caki ƙasa.” Sai ya caka sau uku sa’an nan ya daina.
19 Umuntu kaNkulunkulu kwamzondisa lokho wasesithi kuyo inkosi, “Bekufanele ukuthi utshaye iphansi kahlanu loba kasithupha; ngalokho kade uzabe unqobe ele-Aramu njalo walibhubhisa. Kodwa khathesi usuzalinqoba kathathu kuphela.”
Sai mutumin Allah ya yi fushi da shi ya ce, “Da a ce ka caki ƙasar sau biyar ko shida; da za ka yi nasara a kan Aram ka kuma hallaka ta sarai. Amma yanzu za ka yi nasara a kanta sau uku ne kawai.”
20 U-Elisha wafa wangcwatshwa. Abahlaseli bamaMowabi babejayele ukungena elizweni entwasa.
Elisha ya mutu, aka kuma binne shi. To, mahara Mowabawa sun saba kawo hari a ƙasar Isra’ila a kowace bazara.
21 Kwathi kwesinye isikhathi abako-Israyeli bengcwaba indoda ethile, babona nampa abahlaseli; basebelahlela isidumbu leso ethuneni lika-Elisha. Kuthe isidumbu leso sithinta amathambo ka-Elisha, indoda leyo yavuka yasukuma yama ngezinyawo zayo.
Wata rana yayinda waɗansu Isra’ilawa suke binne wani mutum, farat ɗaya sai ga mahara; saboda haka suka jefar da gawar mutumin a kabarin Elisha. Da gawar ta taɓa ƙasusuwan Elisha, sai mutumin ya farka, ya tashi ya tsaya da ƙafafunsa.
22 UHazayeli inkosi yase-Aramu wancindezela abako-Israyeli ngesikhathi sokubusa kukaJehowahazi.
Hazayel sarkin Aram ya musguna wa Isra’ila a duk tsawon mulkin Yehoyahaz.
23 Kodwa uThixo waba lomusa kubo waba lozwelo watshengisela ukubakhathalela ngenxa yesivumelwano sakhe lo-Abhrahama, u-Isaka loJakhobe. Kuze kube lamuhla kathandi ukubabhubhisa loba ukubalahla basuke phambi kwakhe.
Amma Ubangiji ya nuna musu alheri, ya ji tausayinsu, ya kuma damu da su saboda alkawarinsa da Ibrahim, Ishaku da Yaƙub. Har yă zuwa yau bai yarda yă hallaka su ko yă shafe su daga gabansa ba.
24 UHazayeli inkosi yama-Aramu wafa, uBheni-Hadadi indodana yakhe wabusa esikhundleni sakhe.
Hazayel sarkin Aram ya mutu, sai Ben-Hadad ɗansa ya gāje shi.
25 Ngakho uJowashi indodana kaJehowahazi wabuya wathumba njalo amadolobho embusweni kaBheni-Hadadi indodana kaHazayeli ayethunjwe empini kayise uJehowahazi. UJowashi wamnqoba kathathu, ngakho wawabuyisa amadolobho abako-Israyeli.
Sa’an nan Yowash ya sāke ƙwato garuruwan da Ben-Hadad ya ci da yaƙi a hannun mahaifinsa Yehoyahaz. Sau uku Yehowash ya yi nasara a kansa, ta haka kuwa ya ƙwace garuruwan Isra’ilawa.
