1 Amakhosi 14
1 Ngalesosikhathi uAbhiya indodana kaJerobhowamu wagula.
Saa bere no, Yeroboam babarima Abia yaree denneennen.
2 UJerobhowamu wasesithi kumkakhe: Akusuke uzifihle isimo ukuze bangakwazi ukuthi ungumkaJerobhowamu, uye eShilo; khangela, kukhona lapho uAhiya umprofethi owangitshela ukuthi ngizakuba yinkosi phezu kwalababantu.
Enti Yeroboam ka kyerɛɛ ne yere se, “Sesa wo ho, sɛnea ɛbɛyɛ a obiara renhu wo sɛ wone ɔhemmea no. Na kɔ odiyifo Ahiya, ɔbarima a ɔka kyerɛɛ me se medi hene no nkyɛn wɔ Silo.
3 Uthathe izinkwa ezilitshumi esandleni sakho lamaqebelengwana alukhuni lodiwo loluju, uye kuye, yena uzakutshela okuzakwenzeka kulumntwana.
Fa brodo mua du, ɔfam ne ɛwo tumpan kɔkyɛ no, na bisa no nea ɛbɛba abarimaa no so.”
4 UmkaJerobhowamu wasesenza njalo, wasuka waya eShilo, wafika emzini kaAhiya. Kodwa uAhiya wayengelakubona ngoba amehlo akhe ayesenqundekile ngenxa yobudala bakhe.
Na Yeroboam yere no kɔɔ Ahiya fi wɔ Silo. Saa bere no na wabɔ akwakoraa a onhu ade.
5 INkosi yasisithi kuAhiya: Khangela, umkaJerobhowamu uyeza ukubuza ulutho kuwe ngendodana yakhe, ngoba iyagula. Uzamtshela ukuthi lokuthi. Ngoba kuzakuthi ekungeneni kwakhe, uzazitshaya omunye.
Nanso na Awurade aka akyerɛ Ahiya se, “Yeroboam yere bɛba ha, na ɔbɛhyɛ da ayɛ ne ho sɛ obi foforo. Obebisa wo ne babarima no ho asɛm, efisɛ ɔyare denneennen. Sɛ ɛba saa a, fa mmuae a mede bɛma wo no ma no.”
6 Kwasekusithi uAhiya esizwa izisinde zenyawo zakhe lapho engena emnyango wathi: Ngena mkaJerobhowamu; uzitshayelani omunye? Ngoba ngithunywe kuwe ngento enzima.
Na Ahiya tee ne nan ase wɔ pon ano no, ɔfrɛe se, “Yeroboam yere, bra mu! Adɛn nti na woahyɛ da ayɛ wo ho sɛ obi foforo?” Na ɔka kyerɛɛ no se, “Mewɔ asɛmmɔne ka kyerɛ wo.
7 Hamba uthi kuJerobhowamu: Itsho njalo iNkosi, uNkulunkulu kaIsrayeli, ithi: Njengoba ngakuphakamisa uphakathi kwabantu, ngakwenza umbusi phezu kwabantu bami uIsrayeli,
Fa saa nkra yi a efi Awurade, Israel Nyankopɔn, nkyɛn kɔma wo kunu Yeroboam se, ‘Mepagyaw wo fi mpapahwekwa mu, de wo besii me nkurɔfo Israel so hene.
8 ngadabula umbuso ngawususa endlini kaDavida, ngawunika wena; kodwa kawubanga njengenceku yami uDavida, owagcina imilayo yami, lowangilandela ngenhliziyo yakhe yonke, ukwenza okuhle kuphela emehlweni ami;
Mituu ahemman no ase fii Dawid fi, de maa wo. Nanso woammu wo bra te sɛ me somfo Dawid a odii mʼahyɛde so a ɔde ne koma nyinaa dii mʼakyi, na daa ɔyɛɛ biribiara a mepɛ sɛ ɔyɛ no.
9 kodwa wenzile ububi okwedlula bonke ababekhona phambi kwakho, kodwa uhambe wazenzela abanye onkulunkulu lezithombe ezibunjwe ngokuncibilikisa, ukuze ungithukuthelise, wangilahla emva komhlana wakho.
Bɔne a woayɛ no dɔɔso sen wɔn a wɔtenaa ase ansa na wɔrewo wo no. Woayɛ anyame afoforo ma ɛnam so ama me bo afuw wo, wo sikakɔkɔɔ nantwi mma no nti. Na esiane sɛ woadan wʼakyi akyerɛ me nti,
10 Ngakho, khangela, ngizakwehlisela ububi endlini kaJerobhowamu, ngiqume asuke kuJerobhowamu ochamela emdulini, ovalelweyo lokhululekileyo koIsrayeli, ngihugule okulandelayo kwendlu kaJerobhowamu, njengomuntu ehugula umquba uze uphele.
mede amanehunu bɛba wo fi ahenni nnidiso so, na mekum wo mmabarima nyinaa, akoa ne nea odi ne ho so nso. Mɛhyew wʼahenni nnidiso no ase, sɛnea obi hyew wura ma ase tu koraa no.
11 OkaJerobhowamu ofela phakathi komuzi zizamudla izinja, lofela egangeni zizamudla inyoni zamazulu; ngoba iNkosi ikhulumile.
Me, Awurade, meka ntam se, wo fifo a wobewuwu wɔ kurow no mu no, akraman na wɔbɛwe wɔn nam, na wɔn a wobewuwu wuram no nso, apete na wɔbɛsosɔw wɔn nam.’”
12 Ngakho wena suka, uye endlini yakho; ekungeneni kwenyawo zakho emzini umntwana uzakufa.
Na Ahiya ka kyerɛɛ Yeroboam yere se, “Kɔ fie, na sɛ wuwura kurow no mu ara pɛ a, abofra no bewu.
13 Njalo uIsrayeli wonke uzamlilela amngcwabe; ngoba nguye kuphela koJerobhowamu ozakuza engcwabeni, ngoba kutholakala kuye into elungileyo ngaseNkosini uNkulunkulu kaIsrayeli endlini kaJerobhowamu.
Na Israel nyinaa besu no, na wɔasie no. Ɔno nko ne onipa a ofi mo fi a wobesie no yiye, na saa abofra no nko na Awurade, Israel Nyankopɔn, hu no sɛ ade pa wɔ Yeroboam fifo nyinaa mu.
14 Futhi uJehova uzazivusela inkosi phezu kukaIsrayeli, ezaquma indlu kaJerobhowamu ngalolosuku. Kodwa kuyini? Lakhathesi.
Na Awurade bɛpagyaw ne hene a obedi Israel so. Ɔno na ɔbɛtɔre Yeroboam fifo ase. Saa asɛm no besi nnɛ yi ara, saa dɔnhwerew yi ara mu.
15 Njalo iNkosi izamtshaya uIsrayeli njengomhlanga uzunguzeka emanzini, iquphule uIsrayeli elizweni leli elihle, eyalinika oyise, ibachithachithe ngaphetsheya komfula, ngenxa yokuthi bazenzela izixuku, bayithukuthelisa iNkosi.
Na Awurade bɛwosow Israel te sɛ sibiri a ehinhim wɔ asuwa ani. Obetutu Israelfo ase afi saa asase pa a ɔde maa wɔn agyanom no so. Na ɔbɛbɔ wɔn apete, atra Asubɔnten Eufrate, efisɛ wɔnam som a wɔsom Asera nnua no so ahyɛ Awurade abufuw.
16 Njalo izanikela uIsrayeli ngenxa yezono zikaJerobhowamu, owonayo, wenza uIsrayeli one.
Ɔbɛto Israel asaworam, efisɛ Yeroboam yɛɛ bɔne, nam so maa Israel nyinaa ne no yɛɛ bɔne.”
17 UmkaJerobhowamu wasesuka wahamba, wafika eTiriza. Lapho efika embundwini wendlu, umfana wafa.
Na Yeroboam yere san kɔɔ Tirsa. Na bere a owuraa ne fi no, abofra no wui.
18 Basebemngcwaba; loIsrayeli wonke wamlilela, njengokwelizwi leNkosi eyalikhuluma ngesandla senceku yayo uAhiya umprofethi.
Bere a Israelfo siee no no, wosuu no sɛnea Awurade nam odiyifo Ahiya so hyɛe no.
19 Ezinye-ke zezindaba zikaJerobhowamu, ukuthi walwa njani, lokuthi wabusa njani, khangela, zibhaliwe egwalweni lwemilando yamakhosi akoIsrayeli.
Yeroboam ahenni ho nsɛm nkae, nʼakodi nyinaa ne ɔkwan a ɔfaa so buu ɔman no nyinaa no, wɔakyerɛw agu Israel Ahemfo Abakɔsɛm Nhoma Mu.
20 Lensuku uJerobhowamu abusa ngazo zaziyiminyaka engamatshumi amabili lambili, walala laboyise, njalo uNadabi indodana yakhe waba yinkosi esikhundleni sakhe.
Yeroboam dii ade wɔ Israel mfe aduonu abien. Owui no, ne babarima Nadab na odii nʼade sɛ ɔhene.
21 URehobhowamu indodana kaSolomoni wabusa-ke koJuda. URehobhowamu wayeleminyaka engamatshumi amane lanye lapho esiba yinkosi, wabusa iminyaka elitshumi lesikhombisa eJerusalema, umuzi iNkosi eyayiwukhethile kuzo zonke izizwe zakoIsrayeli, ukubeka khona ibizo layo. Lebizo likanina lalinguNahama umAmonikazi.
Na Salomo babarima Rehoboam na na odi hene wɔ Yuda. Bere a odii ade no, na wadi mfe aduanan baako, na odii ade mfe dunson wɔ Yerusalem, kurow a na Awurade ayi wɔ Israel mmusuakuw no nyinaa mu, sɛ ɔde rehyɛ ne din anuonyam no. Na Rehoboam ne na din de Naama a ɔyɛ Amonni.
22 UJuda wasesenza okubi emehlweni eNkosi; bayivusa ubukhwele, ngezono zabo abazonayo, okwedlula konke oyise ababekwenzile, ngezono zabo abazonayo.
Bere a na Rehoboam di ade no, nnipa a wɔwɔ Yuda no yɛɛ bɔne Awurade anim, maa ne bo fuw wɔ wɔn bɔne no ho. Na saa bɔne no sen nea wɔn agyanom no yɛe mpo.
23 Ngoba labo bazakhela izindawo eziphakemeyo, lezinsika eziyizithombe, lezixuku, phezu kwalo lonke uqaqa oluphakemeyo, langaphansi kwaso sonke isihlahla esiluhlaza.
Wosisii abosomfi, gyinaa dannua a wɔatew ho ne Asera nnua wɔ bepɔw biara so ne dutan frɔmfrɔm biara ase.
24 Kwakukhona-ke elizweni lezinkotshana. Benza njengokwezinengiso zezizwe iNkosi eyayizixotshile elifeni phambi kwabantwana bakoIsrayeli.
Mpo, na abosomfi mmarima nguamanfo wɔ asase no so mmaa nyinaa. Nnipa no suasuaa akyiwade ahorow a amanaman a wɔsom abosom no yɛe nti a Awurade pam wɔn fii asase no so maa Israelfo no.
25 Kwasekusithi ngomnyaka wesihlanu wenkosi uRehobhowamu uShishaki inkosi yeGibhithe wenyuka wamelana leJerusalema.
Rehoboam dii ade ne mfe anum so no, Misraimhene Sisak bɛtow hyɛɛ Yerusalem so.
26 Wathatha amagugu endlu kaJehova lamagugu endlu yenkosi, yebo wakuthatha konke, wathatha zonke izihlangu zegolide uSolomoni ayezenzile.
Ɔbɔ wuraa Awurade Asɔredan no mu ne ahemfi hɔ baabiara, wiaa biribiara a sikakɔkɔɔ akyɛm a Salomo yɛe no ka ho.
27 Inkosi uRehobhowamu yasisenza endaweni yazo izihlangu zethusi, yazinikela esandleni senduna yabalindi ababegcina umnyango wendlu yenkosi.
Akyiri no, Rehoboam yɛɛ kɔbere akyɛm de sii anan, na ɔde hyɛɛ ahemfi awɛmfo no nsa sɛ wɔnhwɛ so.
28 Njalo kwakusithi lapho inkosi ingena endlini kaJehova abalindi babezithwala, bazibuyisele endlini yabalindi.
Bere biara a ɔhene no kɔ Awurade Asɔredan mu hɔ no, awɛmfo no soa kɔ hɔ bi, na sɛ owie na ɔreba a, wɔsan de begu awɛmfo dan no mu.
29 Ezinye-ke zezindaba zikaRehobhowamu, lakho konke akwenzayo, kakubhalwanga yini egwalweni lwemilando yamakhosi akoJuda?
Na Rehoboam ahenni ho nsɛm nkae no ne dwuma a odii no de, wɔankyerɛw ne nyinaa wɔ Yuda Ahemfo Abakɔsɛm Nhoma no mu ana?
30 Kwakukhona-ke impi phakathi kukaRehobhowamu loJerobhowamu zonke izinsuku.
Daa na ɔko da Rehoboam ne Yeroboam ntam.
31 URehobhowamu waselala laboyise, wangcwatshelwa kuboyise emzini kaDavida. Lebizo likanina lalinguNahama umAmonikazi. UAbhiyamu indodana yakhe wasesiba yinkosi esikhundleni sakhe.
Bere a Rehoboam wui no, wosiee no wɔ nʼagyanom korabea wɔ Dawid kurom. Na ne na din de Naama a ɔyɛ Amonnibea. Na ne babarima a ne din de Abiyam na odii nʼade sɛ ɔhene.
