2 Imilando 10
1 URehobhowamu wasesiya eShekema ngoba uIsrayeli wonke wayeze eShekema ukumbeka abe yinkosi.
Rehoboam kɔɔ Sekem, ɛfiri sɛ, na Israelfoɔ nyinaa akɔ hɔ sɛ wɔrekɔsi no ɔhene.
2 Kwasekusithi uJerobhowamu indodana kaNebati esizwa, owayeseGibhithe lapho ayebalekele khona ubuso bukaSolomoni inkosi, uJerobhowamu wabuya evela eGibhithe.
Ɛberɛ a Nebat babarima Yeroboam tee Salomo wuo no, ɔfiri Misraim baeɛ, ɛfiri sɛ, ɔdwane firii Salomo anim kɔɔ Misraim.
3 Basebethumela bambiza; uJerobhowamu loIsrayeli wonke basebesiza, bakhuluma kuRehobhowamu besithi:
Israel mpanimfoɔ soma maa wɔkɔfaa Yeroboam, na ɔne Israel nyinaa kɔɔ sɛ wɔne Rehoboam rekɔkasa.
4 Uyihlo wenza ijogwe lethu laba lukhuni; ngakho-ke yenza ube lulanyana umsebenzi kayihlo olukhuni, lejogwe lakhe elinzima abesithwalise lona, njalo sizakukhonza.
Wɔkaa sɛ, “Wʼagya hyɛɛ yɛn ma yɛyɛɛ adwumaden. Yɛsrɛ wo, te saa adwumaden ne apeatoɔ adesoa duruduru a wʼagya de soaa yɛn no so. Woyɛ saa a, yɛbɛsom wo nokorɛ mu.”
5 Wasesithi kibo: Buyani kimi emva kwensuku ezintathu. Abantu basebehamba.
Rehoboam buaa wɔn sɛ, “Mommra nnansa akyi, mmɛgye mmuaeɛ.” Enti, nnipa no kɔeɛ.
6 Inkosi uRehobhowamu yasicebisana labadala ababesima phambi kukaSolomoni uyise esaphila, isithi: Licebisa ukubuyisela mpendulo bani kulababantu?
Na Ɔhene Rehoboam kɔɔ ne mpanimfoɔ bi a na wɔtu nʼagya Salomo fo ne wɔn kɔsusuu asɛm no ho. Ɔbisaa wɔn sɛ, “Moka asɛm no ho ɛdeɛn? Mmuaeɛ bɛn na memfa mma saa nnipa yi?”
7 Basebekhuluma kuye besithi: Uba uzalunga kulababantu, ubathokozise, ukhulume kibo amazwi amahle, bazakuba zinceku zakho insuku zonke.
Mpanimfoɔ yi buaa sɛ, “Sɛ woyɛ nnipa no yie, na woyɛ ayamyɛ kyerɛ wɔn ma ɛsɔ wɔn ani a, wɔn nso bɛyɛ wo nkurɔfoɔ nokwafoɔ.”
8 Kodwa wadela iseluleko sabadala abamcebisa ngaso, wacebisana lamajaha ayeyintanga yakhe, ayesima phambi kwakhe.
Nanso Rehoboam amfa afotuo a mpanimfoɔ no tuu no no. Mmom, ɔkɔɔ nʼatipɛnfoɔ mmabunu bi a ɔne wɔn sii so a na wɔtu no fo no nkyɛn.
9 Wasesithi kuwo: Licebisa ukuthi sibuyisele mpendulo bani kulababantu, abakhulume kimi besithi: Yenza libe lulanyana ijogwe uyihlo alibeka phezu kwethu?
Ɔbisaa wɔn sɛ, “Mo nso mo adwene ne sɛn? Mmuaeɛ bɛn na memfa nkɔma nnipa a wɔpɛ sɛ mete adesoa a mʼagya de soaa wɔn no so?”
10 Amajaha ayeyintanga yakhe asekhuluma laye esithi: Uzakutsho njalo ebantwini abakhuluma kuwe besithi: Uyihlo wenza ijogwe lethu laba nzima, kodwa wena lenze libe lulanyana kithi; uzakutsho njalo kubo: Ucikilicane wami uqatha kulokhalo lukababa.
Mmeranteɛ no buaa sɛ, “Ka kyerɛ wɔn a wɔnwiinwii no sɛ, ‘Me kɔkorɔbɛto mu pi sene mʼagya asene; sɛ modwene sɛ ɔhyɛɛ mo so dodo a, montwɛn na monhwɛ sɛdeɛ mɛyɛ.’
11 Ngakho-ke ubaba walethwesa ijogwe elinzima, kodwa mina ngizakwengezelela ejogweni lenu. Ubaba walijezisa ngeziswepu, kodwa mina ngabofezela.
Aane, na mʼagya yɛ den wɔ mo so, nanso me deɛ, mɛyɛ deɛ ɛkyɛn saa. Sɛ mʼagya kaa mo mpire a, me deɛ mede anyanyankyerɛ bɛkeka mo.”
12 Ngakho uJerobhowamu labo bonke abantu beza kuRehobhowamu ngosuku lwesithathu njengokutsho kwenkosi isithi: Libuye kimi futhi ngosuku lwesithathu.
Nnansa akyi, Yeroboam ne nnipa no nyinaa sane baa sɛ wɔrebɛtie Rehoboam mmuaeɛ, sɛdeɛ ɔkaeɛ no.
13 Inkosi yasibaphendula kalukhuni; inkosi uRehobhowamu yasidela iseluleko sabadala,
Na Rehoboam de ahantan kasa kyerɛɛ wɔn. Wamfa mpanimfoɔ no afotuo,
14 yakhuluma kubo njengeseluleko samajaha isithi: Ubaba wenza ijogwe lenu laba nzima, kodwa mina ngizakwengezelela kulo; ubaba walijezisa ngeziswepu, kodwa mina ngabofezela.
na ɔfaa mmeranteɛ no afotuo. Ɔka kyerɛɛ nnipa no sɛ, “Na mʼagya ma moyɛ adwumaden, na me deɛ, mɛkyɛn saa! Sɛ mʼagya kaa mo mpire a, me deɛ, mede anyanyankyerɛ na ɛbɛkeka mo!”
15 Ngokunjalo inkosi kayibalalelanga abantu; ngoba inguquko yayivela kuNkulunkulu ukuze iNkosi iqinise ilizwi layo eyayilikhulume ngesandla sikaAhiya umShilo kuJerobhowamu indodana kaNebati.
Enti, ɔhene no antie nnipa no adesrɛ. Sɛdeɛ nneɛma mu daneeɛ no nyinaa firi Awurade, ɛfiri sɛ, ɛmaa asɛm a Awurade nam Ahiya a ɔfiri Silo so ka kyerɛɛ Nebat babarima Yeroboam no baa mu.
16 Lapho uIsrayeli wonke ebona ukuthi inkosi kayibalalelanga, abantu bayiphendula inkosi besithi: Silesabelo bani kuDavida? Njalo kasilalifa endodaneni kaJese. Ngulowo emathenteni akho, Israyeli; khathesi, zibonele indlu yakho, Davida. Ngakho uIsrayeli wonke waya emathenteni akhe.
Ɛberɛ a Israel hunuu sɛ ɔhene no anyɛ wɔn abisadeɛ amma wɔn no, wɔteateaam sɛ, “Dawid ne nʼadedie ntoasoɔ no mfa wɔn ho. Yɛne Yisai babarima no nni twaka biara. Israel, momma yɛnkɔ yɛn afie. Ao Dawid, kɔhwehwɛ wʼankasa wo fie.” Enti, Israel nyinaa sane kɔɔ efie.
17 Kodwa abantwana bakoIsrayeli ababehlala emizini yakoJuda, uRehobhowamu wabusa phezu kwabo.
Na Rehoboam kɔɔ so dii Israelfoɔ a na wɔtete Yuda nkuro so no so ɔhene.
18 Inkosi uRehobhowamu yasithuma uAdoramu owayengumphathi wezibhalwa; abantwana bakoIsrayeli basebemkhanda ngamatshe, wasesifa. Inkosi uRehobhowamu yaphangisa ukukhwela enqoleni ukubalekela eJerusalema.
Ɔhene Rehoboam somaa Hadoram a na ɔhwɛ nnwumayɛfoɔ so no sɛ ɔnkɔhwɛ mma ɔman no nyɛ dinn, nanso Israelfoɔ no sii no aboɔ, kumm no. Ɛberɛ a ɔhene Rehoboam tee saa asɛm no, ntɛm ara, ɔhuri tenaa ne teaseɛnam mu, dwane kɔɔ Yerusalem.
19 Ngalokho uIsrayeli wayihlamuka indlu kaDavida kuze kube lamuhla.
Israel mmusuakuo a wɔwɔ atifi fam no ampene so sɛ Dawid aseni biara bɛdi wɔn so ɔhene de bɛsi ɛnnɛ.
