1 Amakhosi 15
1 Ngomnyaka wetshumi lesificaminwembili wenkosi uJerobhowamu indodana kaNebati uAbhiyamu wasesiba yinkosi phezu kukaJuda.
Yeroboam dii ade wɔ Israel ne mfe dunwɔtwe so no, Abiyam bɛyɛɛ Yudahene.
2 Wabusa iminyaka emithathu eJerusalema. Lebizo likanina lalinguMahaka indodakazi kaAbishalomu.
Odii hene wɔ Yerusalem mfe abiɛsa. Na ne na din de Maaka a ɔyɛ Absalom babea.
3 Wasehamba ezonweni zonke zikayise ayezenze phambi kwakhe, lenhliziyo yakhe yayingaphelelanga kuJehova uNkulunkulu wakhe, njengenhliziyo kaDavida uyise.
Nʼagya bɔne a ɔyɛe nyinaa no, ɔyɛɛ bi. Na ne koma nni Awurade ne Nyankopɔn mu; wansɛ ne nena Dawid.
4 Kodwa ngenxa kaDavida iNkosi uNkulunkulu wakhe yamnika isibane eJerusalema, ngokubeka indodana yakhe emva kwakhe, langokuqinisa iJerusalema.
Nanso esiane Dawid nti, Awurade, ne Nyankopɔn maa nʼasefo kwan ma wɔkɔɔ so dii ade, na ɔmaa Abiyam ɔbabarima a obedi nʼade wɔ Yerusalem.
5 Ngoba uDavida wenza okulungileyo emehlweni eNkosi, kaphambukanga kukho konke eyamlaya khona insuku zonke zempilo yakhe, ngaphandle kwedabeni lukaUriya umHethi.
Na Dawid ayɛ nea eye wɔ Awurade ani so. Odii Awurade ahyɛde so ne nkwa nna nyinaa, gye Hetini Uria no ho asɛm no nko ara.
6 Kwakukhona-ke impi phakathi kukaRehobhowamu loJerobhowamu zonke izinsuku zempilo yakhe.
Abiyam nkwa nna mu nyinaa, na akokoakoko da ɔno ne Yeroboam ntam.
7 Ezinye-ke zezindaba zikaAbhiyamu, lakho konke akwenzayo, kakubhalwanga yini egwalweni lwemilando yamakhosi akoJuda? Njalo kwaba lempi phakathi kukaAbhiyamu loJerobhowamu.
Nsɛm a aka a esisii wɔ Abiyam ahenni mu ne nea ɔyɛe no, wɔankyerɛw wɔ Yuda Ahemfo Abakɔsɛm Nhoma no mu ana? Ɔko daa Abiyam ne Yeroboam ntam bere biara.
8 UAbhiyamu waselala laboyise, bamngcwabela emzini kaDavida. UAsa indodana yakhe wasesiba yinkosi esikhundleni sakhe.
Na Abiyam wui no, wosiee no wɔ Dawid kuropɔn mu. Na ne babarima Asa dii nʼade sɛ ɔhene.
9 Ngomnyaka wamatshumi amabili kaJerobhowamu inkosi yakoIsrayeli uAsa wasesiba yinkosi yakoJuda.
Yeroboam dii hene wɔ Israel ne mfe aduonu so no, Asa bedii hene wɔ Yuda.
10 Wasebusa iminyaka engamatshumi amane lanye eJerusalema. Lebizo likanina lalinguMahaka indodakazi kaAbishalomu.
Odii hene Yerusalem mfe aduanan baako. Na wɔfrɛ ne nenabea Maaka a na ɔyɛ Absalom babea.
11 UAsa wasesenza okulungileyo emehlweni eNkosi njengoDavida uyise.
Asa yɛɛ nea ɛsɔ Awurade ani, sɛnea ne nena Dawid yɛe no.
12 Wasusa izinkotshana elizweni, wasusa zonke izithombe oyise ababezenzile.
Ɔpam nsɔree so so nguamanfo nyinaa fii asase no so, na oyiyii ahoni a nʼagyanom yɛe no nyinaa.
13 Laye-ke uMahaka unina wamsusa ekubeni yindlovukazi, ngoba wayenze into enengekayo ibe yiAshera; uAsa waseyigamula into yakhe enengekayo, wayitshisela esifuleni iKidroni.
Na mpo, otuu ne nenabea Maaka fii ahemmeagua no so, efisɛ na wayɛ Asera ahoni dua a na ɛyɛ akyiwade. Asa twaa dua no na ɔhyew no wɔ Kidron bon mu.
14 Kanti indawo eziphakemeyo kazisuswanga; lanxa kunjalo inhliziyo kaAsa yayiphelele kuJehova insuku zakhe zonke.
Ɛwɔ mu sɛ wɔantutu abosonsom nsɔre so no nyinaa amfi Israel de, nanso Asa kɔɔ so de ne koma hyɛɛ Awurade mu nʼasetena nyinaa mu.
15 Wasengenisa izinto ezehlukanisiweyo zikayise kanye lezakhe izinto ezehlukanisiweyo endlini yeNkosi, isiliva legolide lezitsha.
Ɔde dwetɛ, sikakɔkɔɔ ne nneɛma a ɔno ne nʼagya too din de maa Awurade Asɔredan no bae.
16 Kwakukhona-ke impi phakathi kukaAsa loBahasha inkosi yakoIsrayeli zonke izinsuku zabo.
Na akokoakoko wɔ Yudahene Asa ne Israelhene Baasa ntam.
17 UBahasha inkosi yakoIsrayeli wasesenyuka wamelana loJuda, wakha iRama, ukuze angavumeli muntu ukuphuma lokungena kuAsa inkosi yakoJuda.
Israelhene Baasa kɔko tiaa Yuda, na ɔmaa Rama bammɔ sɛnea obi ntumi nni ahyɛmfiri wɔ Yudahene Asa asase so.
18 UAsa wasethatha sonke isiliva legolide okwakusele emagugwini endlu kaJehova lamagugu endlu yenkosi, wakunikela esandleni senceku zakhe; inkosi uAsa yakuthumela kuBenihadadi indodana kaTabirimoni indodana kaHeziyoni, inkosi yeSiriya, owayehlala eDamaseko, esithi:
Asa tasee dwetɛ ne sikakɔkɔɔ no a ɛkaa wɔ Awurade Asɔredan no adekoradan mu ne nea na ɛwɔ ahemfi no adekoradan no mu. Ɔde hyɛɛ ne mpanyimfo no mu bi nsa, na ɔsomaa wɔn ma wɔkɔɔ Hesion babarima Tabrimon babarima Siriahene Ben-Hadad a na odi hene wɔ Damasko no nkyɛn, na ɔde saa nsɛm yi kaa ho:
19 Kulesivumelwano phakathi kwami lawe, phakathi kukababa loyihlo; khangela, ngikuthumezela isipho, isiliva legolide. Hamba, yephula isivumelwano sakho loBahasha inkosi yakoIsrayeli, ukuze enyuke asuke kimi.
“Ma yɛnyɛ apam a na ɛda wʼagya ne mʼagya ntam no foforo. Tie, mede akyɛde a ɛyɛ dwetɛ ne sikakɔkɔɔ resoma de abrɛ wo. Twa wo ne Israelhene Baasa apam no mu, sɛnea ɔremfa ne nsa nka me.”
20 UBenihadadi waseyilalela inkosi uAsa, wathuma induna zamabutho ayelawo emelene lemizi yakoIsrayeli, watshaya iIjoni leDani leAbeli-Beti-Mahaka layo yonke iKinerothi lelizwe lonke lakoNafithali.
Ben-Hadad penee ɔhene Asa abisade no so, na ɔsomaa nʼakofo, ma wɔkɔtow hyɛɛ Israel so. Wodii nkurow Iyon, Dan, Abel-Bet-Maaka ne Kineret a Naftali nsase nyinaa ka ho no so.
21 Kwasekusithi uBahasha ekuzwa wayekela ukwakha iRama, wahlala eTiriza.
Na Israelhene Baasa tee asɛm a asi no, ogyaee nʼadwuma a na ɔreyɛ de abɔ Rama ho ban no, kɔɔ Tirsa kɔtenaa hɔ.
22 Inkosi uAsa yasisenza isimemezelo kuyo yonke iJuda; kakho owayetshiywe ngaphandle; ukuze basuse amatshe eRama lezigodo zayo, uBahasha ayesakha ngakho. Inkosi uAsa wasesakha ngakho iGeba yakoBhenjamini leMizipa.
Afei, ɔhene Asa soma kɔɔ Yuda mmaa nyinaa, kɔkaa se ɔhwehwɛ sɛ obiara bɛboa asoa adansi abo ne nnua a na Baasa de reyɛ bammɔdwuma wɔ Rama no afi hɔ. Asa de saa bammɔ nneɛma no kyekyeree kurow Geba a ɛwɔ Benyamin ne Mispa nso.
23 Ezinye-ke zazo zonke indaba zikaAsa, lawo wonke amandla akhe, lakho konke akwenzayo, lemizi ayakhayo, kakubhalwanga yini egwalweni lwemilando yamakhosi akoJuda? Kodwa esikhathini sobudala bakhe wayelomkhuhlane ezinyaweni.
Asa ahenni ho nsɛm nkae ne nea ne tumi kodui no, ne nkurow a ɔkyekyeree no nyinaa din no, wɔankyerɛw angu Yuda Ahemfo Abakɔsɛm Nhoma no mu ana? Mmom, ne nkwakorabɔ mu no, ɔyaree ne nan.
24 UAsa waselala laboyise, wangcwatshelwa kuboyise emzini kaDavida uyise. UJehoshafathi indodana yakhe wasesiba yinkosi esikhundleni sakhe.
Bere a Asa wui no, wosiee no nʼagyanom nkyɛn wɔ Dawid kuropɔn mu. Na ne babarima Yehosafat bedii nʼade sɛ ɔhene.
25 UNadabi indodana kaJerobhowamu wasesiba yinkosi phezu kukaIsrayeli ngomnyaka wesibili kaAsa inkosi yakoJuda; wabusa phezu kukaIsrayeli iminyaka emibili.
Yeroboam babarima Nadab fii ase dii ade wɔ Israel bere a na ɔhene Asa adi ade wɔ Yuda mfe abien mu. Odii ade wɔ Israel mfe abien.
26 Wasesenza okubi emehlweni eNkosi, wahamba ngendlela kayise, lesonweni sakhe, enza uIsrayeli one ngaso.
Na ɔyɛɛ bɔne wɔ Awurade ani so. Odii nʼagya anammɔn akyi, toaa so yɛɛ bɔne, som abosom sɛnea na Yeroboam adi Israel anim ama wɔayɛ no.
27 UBahasha indodana kaAhiya, owendlu kaIsakari, wasemenzela ugobe; uBahasha wamtshaya eGibethoni engeyamaFilisti, lapho uNadabi loIsrayeli wonke bevimbezele iGibethoni.
Na Ahiya babarima Baasa a ofi Isakar abusuakuw mu no pam Nadab ti so, kum no bere a na ɔne Israel asraafo akyere nsraban, retua Filistifo kurow Gibeton ano no.
28 UBahasha wambulala-ke ngomnyaka wesithathu kaAsa inkosi yakoJuda, wasesiba yinkosi esikhundleni sakhe.
Baasa kum Nadab wɔ ɔhene Asa adedi wɔ Yuda mfe abiɛsa mu no so, na ɔbɛyɛɛ Israelhene a odi hɔ.
29 Kwasekusithi ekubuseni kwakhe watshaya yonke indlu kaJerobhowamu, katshiyanga loyedwa ophefumulayo kuJerobhowamu, waze wamqeda, njengelizwi leNkosi eyalikhuluma ngesandla senceku yayo uAhiya umShilo.
Ntɛm ara, okunkum ɔhene Yeroboam asefo nyinaa a adehye abusua no mu baako koraa anka, sɛnea Awurade nam odiyifo Ahiya a ofi Silo ahyɛ bɔ afa Yeroboam ho no.
30 Ngenxa yezono zikaJerobhowamu azonayo, lowenza uIsrayeli azone, ngentukuthelo yakhe athukuthelisa ngayo iNkosi, uNkulunkulu kaIsrayeli.
Saa asɛm yi sii, efisɛ Yeroboam di a odii Israel anim ma wɔyɛɛ bɔne no hyɛɛ Awurade, Israel Nyankopɔn abufuw.
31 Ezinye-ke zezindaba zikaNadabi, lakho konke akwenzayo, kakubhalwanga yini egwalweni lwemilando yamakhosi akoIsrayeli?
Nadab ahenni ho nsɛm nkae ne dwuma a odii nyinaa no, wɔankyerɛw angu Israel Ahemfo Abakɔsɛm Nhoma no mu ana?
32 Njalo kwakulempi phakathi kukaAsa loBahasha inkosi yakoIsrayeli insuku zabo zonke.
Na akokoakoko wɔ Asa ne Israelhene Baasa ntam.
33 Ngomnyaka wesithathu kaAsa inkosi yakoJuda uBahasha indodana kaAhiya waba yinkosi phezu kukaIsrayeli wonke eTiriza; iminyaka engamatshumi amabili lane.
Ahiya ba Baasa fii ase dii Israel so wɔ ɔhene Asa adedi wɔ Yuda no mfe abiɛsa mu. Baasa dii ade fii Tirsa mfe aduonu anan.
34 Wasesenza okubi emehlweni eNkosi, wahamba ngendlela kaJerobhowamu, lesonweni sakhe, enza uIsrayeli one ngaso.
Na ɔyɛɛ bɔne wɔ Awurade ani so. Odii Yeroboam anammɔn akyi, som abosom, sɛnea Yeroboam dii Israel anim yɛe no.
