2 Amakhosi 21
1 UManase wayeleminyaka elitshumi lambili eqalisa ukubusa njalo wabusa okweminyaka engamatshumi amahlanu lemihlanu eJerusalema. Ibizo likanina lalinguHefizibha.
Bere a Manase dii hene no, na wadi mfe dumien, na odii hene wɔ Yerusalem mfirihyia aduonum anum. Na ne na din de Hefsibah.
2 Wenza ububi emehlweni kaThixo, elandela imikhuba eyenyanyekayo yezizwe uThixo ayezixotshile phambi kuka-Israyeli.
Ɔyɛɛ bɔne wɔ Awurade ani so, suasuaa abosonsomfo aman nneyɛe a ɛyɛ akyiwade a Awurade apam afi asase a ɛda Israel anim no so no.
3 Wavuselela izindawo zokukhonzela ezazidilizwe nguyise uHezekhiya, wakha lama-alithare kaBhali wenza lensika ka-Ashera, njengalokhu okwakwenziwe ngu-Ahabi inkosi yako-Israyeli. Wakhothamela zonke izinkanyezi zezulu wazikhonza.
Ɔsan sisii abosonsomfo abosonnan a nʼagya Hesekia bubu gui no. Ɔyɛɛ afɔremuka pii maa Baal, na osii Asera dua, sɛnea Israelhene Ahab yɛe ara pɛ. Afei, ɔkotow sɔree wim atumfo.
4 Wakha ama-alithare ethempelini likaThixo, lona uThixo ayethe, “EJerusalema ngizabeka khona iBizo lami.”
Na mpo, osisii abosom afɔremuka pii wɔ Awurade asɔredan mu; baabi a Awurade aka sɛ wɔnhyɛ ne din anuonyam no.
5 Kuwo womabili amaguma ethempeli likaThixo, wakhela izinkanyezi zezulu ama-alithare.
Osisii saa afɔremuka no wɔ Awurade Asɔredan no adiwo abien hɔ, de maa wim nsoromma no.
6 Wenza umhlatshelo ngendodana yakhe emlilweni, wavumisa, wenza imilingo, wasebenza lezanuse labemimoya. Wenza okubi kakhulu emehlweni kaThixo, wamthukuthelisa.
Na mpo, Manase de ɔno ankasa babarima bɔɔ afɔre wɔ ogya mu. Na ɔyɛ abayisɛm, kɔ abisa. Ɔkɔɔ samanfrɛfo hɔ ne asumanfo so. Ɔyɛɛ bɔne bebree Awurade ani so, ma ɛhyɛɛ no abufuw.
7 Wathatha insika ebaziweyo ka-Ashera ayeyenzile wayifaka ethempelini, lona lelo kanye uThixo ayethe kuDavida lakuSolomoni indodana yakhe, “Kulelithempeli lakulo umuzi waseJerusalema, engiwukhethileyo kuzozonke izizwana zako-Israyeli, ngizabeka iBizo lami kuze kube nininini.
Manase faa Asera dua a wayɛ no de kosii asɔredan mu, beae koro no ara a Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Dawid ne ne babarima Salomo se, “Wɔbɛhyɛ me din anuonyam wɔ ha daa nyinaa wɔ saa asɔredan yi mu wɔ Yerusalem. Yerusalem yɛ kurow a mayi afi Israel mmusuakuw a aka no nyinaa mu.
8 Angiyikuphinda ngenze inyawo zabako-Israyeli zizule elizweni engalinika okhokho babo, nxa bezananzelela balandele yonke imilayo engabanika yona bagcine wonke uMthetho abawunikwa nguMosi inceku yami.”
Na sɛ Israelfo betie mʼahyɛde a menam mʼakoa Mose so hyɛ maa wɔn no a, merentwa wɔn asu mfi asase yi a mede maa wɔn agyanom no so.”
9 Kodwa abantu abalalelanga. UManase wabalahlekisa, ngakho bona kakhulu ukwedlula izizwe uThixo ayezitshabalalise phambi kokuba u-Israyeli angene.
Nanso nnipa no antie. Manase dii wɔn anim ma wɔyɛɛ bɔne bebree a ɛsen abosonsom aman a Awurade sɛee no bere a Israelfo kɔɔ saa asase no so no mpo.
10 UThixo wakhuluma ngezinceku zakhe abaphrofethi wathi:
Awurade nam nʼasomfo a wɔyɛ nʼadiyifo so kae se,
11 “UManase inkosi yakoJuda wenzile wonke amanyala la. Wenzile izono lezi ezenyanyekayo. Usenze ububi obukhulu obedlula obama-Amori ayekhona ngaphambi kwakhe, njalo usekhokhelele uJuda esonweni ngezithombe zakhe,
“Yudahene Manase ayɛ akyiwade bebree. Na mpo, ɔyɛ omumɔyɛfo sen Amorifo a wɔbɛtenaa asase yi so ansa na Israel reba no. Wadi Yudafo anim de wɔn akɔ ahonisom mu.
12 ngakho-ke nanku okutshiwo nguThixo, uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli ukuthi, Ngizakwehlisela phezu kweJerusalema loJuda incithakalo ezakwenza indlebe zakhe wonke oyizwayo zinkenteze.
Enti sɛɛ na Awurade, Israel Nyankopɔn se: Mede ɔhaw ne abɛbrɛsɛ bɛto Yerusalem ne Yuda so ama aso a ɛbɛte saa nsɛm no mu ayɛ no yonn.
13 Ngizakwelula phezu kweJerusalema intambo eyasetshenziswa ekulahleni iSamariya, lentambo eyasetshenziswa ekulahleni indlu ka-Ahabi. Ngizakwesula iJerusalema njengomuntu owesula umganu, awesule awumbokothe.
Mɛfa ɔkwan a menam so buu Samaria ne Ahab abusua atɛn no so abu Yerusalem atɛn. Mɛpepa nnipa a wɔwɔ Yerusalem nyinaa, te sɛnea obi hohoro asanka mu, na ɔdan butuw no.
14 Ngizalahla insalela yabantu bami, ngibanikele ezitheni zabo. Bazathunjwa babe yimpango yezitha zabo zonke,
Na mpo, mɛpo me nkurɔfo kakra a wɔaka no, na mede wɔn bɛma wɔn atamfo sɛ asade.
15 ngoba benzile okubi phambi kwami, bangithukuthelisa, kusukela ekuphumeni kwabokhokho babo eGibhithe kuze kube lamuhla.”
Efisɛ wɔayɛ bɔne kɛse wɔ mʼanim, nam so ahyɛ me abufuw, fi bere a wɔn agyanom fii Misraim no.”
16 Futhi uManase wachitha igazi elinengi kakhulu elingelacala waze waligcwalisa iJerusalema kusukela ekuqaleni kwalo kuze kube sekucineni, ngaphandle kwesono ayebangele uJuda ukuba asenze, ngakho benza isono emehlweni kaThixo.
Manase kunkum nnipa a wɔnyɛɛ bɔne nso bebree kosii sɛ, mogya a edi bem hyɛɛ Yerusalem ma, fi ti kosi ti. Eyi ka bɔne a ɔmaa Yudafo no yɛ de wɔn kɔɔ bɔne a wɔyɛɛ no Awurade ani so no ho.
17 Ezinye izehlakalo ngokubusa kukaManase, lakho konke akwenzayo, kanye lesono asenzayo, akulotshwanga yini egwalweni lwembali yamakhosi akoJuda na?
Manase ahenni ho nsɛm nkae ne dwuma a odii nyinaa ne bɔne a ɔyɛe no, wɔankyerɛw angu Yuda Ahemfo Abakɔsɛm Nhoma no mu ana?
18 UManase waya ekuphumuleni kubokhokho bakhe, wangcwatshelwa esivandeni sesigodlo sakhe, isivande sika-Uza. U-Amoni indodana yakhe wathatha ubukhosi.
Manase wui no, wosiee no wɔ ahemfi no turo a na ɛyɛ Usa dea no mu. Na ne babarima Amon na odii nʼade sɛ ɔhene.
19 U-Amoni waba yinkosi eleminyaka engamatshumi amabili lambili, njalo wabusa eJerusalema okweminyaka emibili. Ibizo likanina lalinguMeshulemethi indodakazi kaHaruzi; owayevela eJothibha.
Amon dii hene no, na wadi mfe aduonu abien. Odii hene wɔ Yerusalem mfe abien. Na wɔfrɛ ne na Mesulemet a na ɔyɛ Harus a ofi Yolba no babea.
20 Wenza okubi emehlweni kaThixo, njengalokhu okwakwenziwe nguyise uManase.
Ɔyɛɛ bɔne wɔ Awurade ani so, sɛnea nʼagya Manase yɛe no ara pɛ.
21 Walandela konke okwakwenziwe nguyise, wakhonza izithombe ezazikhonzwa nguyise, njalo wazikhothamela.
Ɔfaa nʼagya nhwɛso so, som ahoni koro no ara a na nʼagya som wɔn no.
22 Wamdela uThixo, uNkulunkulu wabokhokho bakhe, njalo kazange ahambe ngendlela kaThixo.
Ogyaw Awurade, nʼagyanom Nyankopɔn no na wampɛ sɛ ɔbɛfa Awurade akwan so.
23 Izikhulu zika-Amoni zamelana laye zabumba icebo zambulala esigodlweni sakhe.
Na Amon no ankasa asomfo bɔɔ ne ho pɔw, kum no wɔ nʼahemfi.
24 Abantu bakulelolizwe basebebulala ababecebe ukubulala inkosi u-Amoni, basebebeka indodana yakhe uJosiya waba yinkosi, esikhundleni sakhe.
Na nnipa a wɔwɔ asase no so nyinaa kunkum nnipa a wɔbɔɔ ɔhene Amon ho pɔw no, na wɔde ne babarima Yosia dii ade sɛ ɔhene.
25 Ezinye izehlakalo ngokubusa kuka-Amoni, lakho konke akwenzayo, akulotshwanga yini egwalweni lwembali yamakhosi akoJuda na?
Amon ahenni ho nsɛm nkae ne dwuma a odii no nyinaa, wɔankyerɛw angu Yuda Ahemfo Abakɔsɛm Nhoma no mu ana?
26 Wangcwatshwa ethuneni lakhe, esivandeni sika-Uza. UJosiya indodana yakhe wathatha ubukhosi.
Wosiee no wɔ ne boda a ɛwɔ Usa turo mu hɔ no mu. Na ne babarima Yosia dii ade sɛ ɔhene.
