2 Amakhosi 8
1 U-Elisha wayetshele umfazi olomntwana ayemvuse ekufeni wathi, “Suka uhambe labendlu yakho uyehlala lapha ongathuthela khona okwesikhatshana, ngoba uThixo uzaletha indlala elizweni ezathatha iminyaka eyisikhombisa.”
Elisa gblɔ na nyɔnu si ƒe viŋutsu wògbɔ agbee la be, “Kplɔ wò ƒometɔwo eye miayi aɖanɔ teƒe aɖe si miate ŋu anɔ elabena Yehowa ɖe gbe be dɔwuame nava anyigba la dzi eye wòanɔ anyi ƒe adre.”
2 Owesifazane lowo wakwenza lokho njengokulaywa kwakhe ngumuntu kaNkulunkulu. Yena kanye labendlu yakhe basuka bayahlala elizweni lamaFilistiya okweminyaka eyisikhombisa.
Nyɔnu la wɔ nu si Mawu ƒe ame la gblɔ. Eya kple eƒe ƒometɔwo yi ɖanɔ Filistitɔwo ƒe anyigba dzi ƒe adre.
3 Ekupheleni kweminyaka eyisikhombisa wasuka elizweni lamaFilistiya waya enkosini yakibo wayacela indawo yomuzi kanye lamasimu akhe.
Esi dɔwuame la nu tso la, nyɔnu la gatrɔ va Israelnyigba dzi eye wòva kpɔ fia la be wòagbugbɔ yeƒe aƒe kple anyigba na ye.
4 Inkosi yayikhuluma loGehazi, isisebenzi somuntu kaNkulunkulu, yathi, “Ake ungixoxele ngezimanga ezinkulu esezike zenziwa ngu-Elisha.”
Fia la nɔ nu ƒom kple Gehazi, Elisa ƒe subɔla, esime nyɔnu la do ɖe fia la ŋkume. Fia la nɔ gbɔgblɔm na Gehazi be, “Gblɔ nya aɖewo nam tso nu gã siwo Elisa wɔ la ŋu.”
5 Uthe uGehazi esathi uyalandisela inkosi ngokuthi u-Elisha wavusa njani abafileyo, owesifazane owayelendodana yakhe eyasiliswa ngu-Elisha wafika ezocela ukubuyela emzini wakhe lokulima amasimu akhe. UGehazi wathi, “Nguyenalo owesifazane, nkosi yami, nansi lendodana yakhe, eyiyo eyavuswa kwabafileyo ngu-Elisha.”
Gehazi nɔ nu ƒom na fia la tso gbe si gbe Elisa gbɔ agbe ŋutsuvi kuku aɖe la ŋuti. Ɣe ma ɣi tututue ŋutsuvia dada do ɖe fia la ŋkume! Gehazi gblɔ na fia la be, “Ahã! Nye aƒetɔ fia bubutɔ, nyɔnu lae nye esia, ame si ƒe viŋutsu ku eye Elisa gbɔ agbee lae nye esia!”
6 Inkosi yambuza ngalokhu umama lowo, lakanye wakufakaza lokho. Inkosi yasikhetha esinye sezikhulu zayo ukuba sikhangele izikhalazo zowesifazane yaqonqosela yathi, “Uze umbuyisele konke okwakungokwakhe, lenzuzo yonke eyasala izuzakala emasimini akhe kusukela mhla asuka kulelilizwe kuze kube sekuphendukeni kwakhe lamuhla.”
Fia la bia nyɔnu la be, “Nyateƒea?” Nyɔnu la ɖo eŋu be, “Ɛ̃, nyateƒee!” Ale fia la ɖe gbe na eŋumewo dometɔ ɖeka be wòakpɔ egbɔ be nu sia nu si nye nyɔnu la tɔ kpɔ la naka esi eye be woaxe fe nɛ ɖe nuku siwo woxa le eƒe anyimanɔmanɔ me la nu.
7 U-Elisha waya eDamaseko, uBheni-Hadadi inkosi yase-Aramu wayegula. Inkosi isitsheliwe ngalokho ukuthi,
Le esia megbe la, Elisa yi Damasko, Siria ƒe fiadu me esime Siria fia, Ben Hadad nɔ dɔ lém le afi ma. Ame aɖe gblɔ na fia la be nyagblɔɖila la va.
8 “Umuntu kaNkulunkulu usefikile uvela ekudeni khonale esiza lapha,” wathi kuHazayeli: “Thatha isipho uyehlangabeza umuntu kaNkulunkulu. Khuluma ubuze uThixo ngaye; uthi, ‘Kambe ngizasila yini kulokhu kugula na?’”
Egblɔ na Hazael be, “Tsɔ nunana ɖe asi eye nàyi ɖakpɔ Mawu ƒe ame la. Bia gbe Yehowa to Mawu ƒe ame la dzi. Biae be, ‘Ɖe mahaya tso nye dɔléle sia mea?’”
9 UHazayeli waphuma wayahlangabeza u-Elisha, ephethe izipho zezimpahla ezinhle kakhulu ezenziwa ngabaleminwe eDamaseko zithwelwe ngamakamela angamatshumi amane. Wafika wangena wema phambi kwakhe, wathi, “Indodana yakho uBheni-Hadadi inkosi yase-Aramu ungithumile ukuba ngizobuza, uthe yena, ‘Kambe ngizasila emkhuhlaneni na?’”
Hazael yi ɖado go Elisa. Edo agba na kposɔ blaene kple adzɔnu nyuitɔwo tso Damasko. Eyi ɖatsi tsitre ɖe eŋkume hegblɔ be, “Viwò Ben Hadad, Siria fia dɔm ɖa be mabia wò be, ‘Ɖe mahaya tso nye dɔléle sia mea?’”
10 U-Elisha waphendula wathi, “Hamba uyemtshela ukuthi, ‘Ngempela uzasila’; kodwa uThixo usebonakalisile kimi umbono wokuthi uzakufa.”
Elisa ɖo eŋu be, “Gblɔ nɛ be ahaya gake Yehowa ɖee fiam be ele kuku ge godoo!”
11 Wamkhangela engaciyozi emuthe nzo ngamehlo uHazayeli waze waba lenhloni. Umuntu kaNkulunkulu wasekhala.
Elisa lĩ ŋku ɖe Hazael dzi gãa va se ɖe esime Hazael tɔtɔ eye Elisa de asi avifafa me.
12 UHazayeli wabuza wathi, “Kungani inkosi yami ikhala?” Umuntu kaNkulunkulu waphendula wathi, “Kungenxa yokuthi ngiyabazi ububi ozabenza ebantwini bako-Israyeli; uzatshisa izinqola zabo ngomlilo, ubulale lamadodana abo ngenkemba, uchoboze ingane zabo njalo uqhaqhe abesifazane abazithweleyo.”
Hazael biae be, “Nu ka ta nye aƒetɔ le avi fam?” Elisa ɖo eŋu be, “Menya nu vɔ̃ɖi siwo nèle wɔwɔ ge Israelviwo; àtɔ dzo woƒe mɔwo, àwu woƒe ɖekakpuiwo, àxlã woƒe vidzĩwo ɖe agakpewo eye àdze ƒodo le woƒe funɔwo nu!”
13 UHazayeli wathi, “Kambe inceku yakho, yona iyinja ngokwayo, ingasanelisa njani isiga esingako?” U-Elisha waphendula wathi, “UThixo ungitshengisile ukuthi wena uzakuba yinkosi yase-Aramu.”
Hazael gblɔ be, “Avue menyea? Nyemawɔ nu ma tɔgbi gbeɖegbeɖe o!” Ke Elisa ɖo eŋu be, “Yehowa na menya be wòe ava zu fia le Siria.”
14 Ngakho uHazayeli wasuka ku-Elisha wabuyela enkosini yakhe. UBheni-Hadadi wasebuza esithi, “Utheni u-Elisha kuwe?” UHazayeli yena waphendula wathi, “Ungitshele ukuthi ngempela uzasila.”
Esi Hazael trɔ le Elisa gbɔ va yi eƒe aƒetɔ gbɔ la gbɔ la, ebiae be, “Nya kae nyagblɔɖila la gblɔ na wò?” Hazael ɖo eŋu be, “Egblɔ nam be àhaya.”
15 Kodwa ngosuku olulandelayo wathatha ingubo, wayigxamuza emanzini, wasembomboza ubuso benkosi ngayo yaze yafa. Ngakho uHazayeli waba yinkosi.
Ke esi ŋu ke la, Hazael tsɔ kundru aɖe de tsi me eye wòtsɔe tsyɔ mo na fia Ben Hadad va se ɖe esime gbɔgbɔtsixe tsi eƒo eye wòku. Ale Hazael zu fia ɖe eteƒe.
16 Ngomnyaka wesihlanu kaJoramu indodana ka-Ahabi inkosi yako-Israyeli, ngesikhathi uJehoshafathi eyinkosi yakoJuda, uJehoramu indodana kaJehoshafathi waqalisa ukubusa eyinkosi yakoJuda.
Fia Yoram, Yuda fia Yehosafat ƒe vi dze eƒe fiaɖuɖu gɔme le Israel fia, Yehoram, Fia Ahab ƒe vi ƒe fiaɖuɖu ƒe ƒe atɔ̃lia me.
17 Wayeleminyaka engamatshumi amathathu lambili eqalisa ukubusa, njalo wabusa eJerusalema okweminyaka eyisificaminwembili.
Yoram xɔ ƒe blaetɔ̃-vɔ-eve esi wòzu fia. Eɖu fia le Yerusalem ƒe enyi.
18 Yena wahamba emanyathelweni amakhosi ako-Israyeli, njengalokhu okwakwenziwe ngabendlu ka-Ahabi, ngoba wayethethe indodakazi ka-Ahabi. Wona phambi kukaThixo.
Enye fia vɔ̃ɖi aɖe abe Ahab kple Israel fia bubuawo ene. Eɖe Ahab ƒe vinyɔnu eye wòwɔ nu si nye vɔ̃ le Yehowa ŋkume.
19 Loba kunjalo, ngenxa kaDavida inceku yakhe, uThixo kathandanga ukudiliza indlu kaJuda. Wayemthembise ukugcina isibane sikaDavida lenzalo yakhe kuze kube nini lanini.
Ke esi Yehowa do ŋugbe na eƒe dɔla, Fia David, be yeakpɔ eƒe dzidzimeviwo dzi eye yeakplɔ wo ta la, metsrɔ̃ Yuda o.
20 Ngensuku zikaJehoramu, abase-Edomi bahlamukela uJuda babeka eyabo inkosi.
Le Yoram ƒe fiaɖuɣi la, Edomtɔwo dze aglã, ɖe wo ɖokui ɖa tso Yuda te eye woɖo fia na wo ɖokui.
21 Ngakho uJehoramu waya eZayiri lezinqola zakhe zokulwa. Ama-Edomi amhanqa yena kanye labalawuli bezinqola zokulwa, wavuka ebusuku waphulukundlela ngobusuku; kodwa amabutho akhe abaleka abuyela ekhaya.
Ke Yehoram kple eƒe tasiaɖamwo katã ho yi Zair. Le zã me la, Edomʋakɔ va ɖe to ɖe wo kpe ɖe eƒe tasiaɖam megãwo ŋu. Ke Yoram kple eƒe tasiaɖam megãwo kpe aʋa kple Edomtɔwo hekpe wo dzi hesi to wo dome dzo. Ke eƒe amewo si yi aƒe.
22 Kuze kube lamhla abase-Edomi balokhu behlamukela uJuda. ULibhina laye wahlamuka ngalesosikhathi.
Ale Edom do le Yuda ƒe kɔkuti te va se ɖe egbe. Libna hã dze aglã ɣe ma ɣi tututu.
23 Okunye ngombuso langezehlakalo zikaJehoramu, lakho konke okunye akwenzayo, akulotshwanga egwalweni lwembali yamakhosi akoJuda na?
Woŋlɔ Fia Yoram ƒe ŋutinya mamlɛa ɖe, Yuda fiawo ƒe ŋutinyagbalẽ me.
24 UJehoramu waya kwabaphansi, wangcwatshwa laboyise eMzini kaDavida. Ngakho u-Ahaziya indodana yakhe wathatha ubukhosi.
Eku eye woɖii ɖe tɔgbuiawo dome le David ƒe du la me. Ke Ahazia si nye Via ŋutsuvi ɖu fia ɖe eteƒe.
25 Ngomnyaka wetshumi lambili kaJoramu indodana ka-Ahabi inkosi yako-Israyeli, u-Ahaziya indodana kaJehoramu inkosi yakoJuda waqalisa ukubusa.
Yoram ƒe vi, Ahazia zu fia yeye la le Israel fia Yehoram, Ahab ƒe vi ƒe fiaɖuɖu ƒe ƒe wuievelia me.
26 U-Ahaziya waqalisa ukubusa eleminyaka engamatshumi amabili, njalo wabusa eJerusalema okomnyaka owodwa. Unina wayengu-Athaliya, umntanomntanakhe ka-Omri inkosi yako-Israyeli.
Ahazia xɔ ƒe blaeve-vɔ-eve esi wòzu fia. Eɖu fia ƒe ɖeka ko le Yerusalem. Dadae nye Atalia, Israel fia, Omri ƒe tɔgbuiyɔvi.
27 Wahamba ngenyathelo labendlu ka-Ahabi wona phambi kukaThixo, njengokwakwenziwe ngabendlu ka-Ahabi, ngoba wayeyisihlobo sabo ngokuthatha.
Enye fia vɔ̃ɖi aɖe abe ale si Fia Ahab ƒe dzidzimeviwo katã nɔ ene elabena edo ƒome kple Fia Ahab to srɔ̃ɖeɖe me.
28 U-Ahaziya waya empini loJoramu indodana ka-Ahabi besilwa loHazayeli inkosi yase-Aramu eRamothi Giliyadi. Ama-Aramu alimaza uJoramu,
Ahazia kple Ahab ƒe vi Yoram woho aʋa ɖe Aram fia Hazael ŋu le Ramot Gilead. Aramtɔwo de abi Yoram ŋu le aʋa sia me
29 ngakho inkosi uJoramu yabuyela eJezerili ukuthi iyekwelatshwa amanxeba lapho eyayilinyazwe khona ngama-Aramu eRama ekulweni kwayo loHazayeli inkosi yama-Aramu. Ngakho u-Ahaziya indodana kaJehoramu inkosi yakoJuda wehla wayabona uJoramu indodana ka-Ahabi, njengoba wayeselimele.
eya ta Fia Yoram gbɔ va Yezreel be yeagbɔ ɖe eme, eye yeakpɔ egbɔ be woda gbe le abi siwo Aramtɔwo de eŋu le Ramot, esime wòwɔ aʋa kple Aram fia Hazael la ŋu. Ke Ahazia si nye Yuda fia Yehoram ƒe vi la yi Yezerel be yeakpɔ Ahab vi Yoram ɖa ɖe eƒe abixɔxɔ ta.
