2 Imilando 24

1 UJowashi wayeleminyaka eyisikhombisa esiba yinkosi, wabusa iminyaka engamatshumi amane eJerusalema. Lebizo likanina lalinguZibiya weBherishebha.

Hagi Joasi'a 7ni'a kafu hu'neno Juda vahe kini efore hu'neankino, 40'a kafufi Jerusalemi kumatera kinia mani'ne. Hagi nerera agi'a Sibiakino agra Beseba kumateti a' mani'ne.

2 UJowashi wasesenza okuqondileyo emehlweni eNkosi insuku zonke zikaJehoyada umpristi.

Hagi pristi ne' Jehoiada'ma mani'nea knafina, Joasi'a Ra Anumzamofo avurera fatgo avu'avake hu'ne.

3 UJehoyada wasemthathela abafazi ababili; wasezala amadodana lamadodakazi.

Hagi Jehoiada'a tare atre Joasina avre amigeno, ne'mofara kasezmante'ne.

4 Kwasekusithi emva kwalokho kwaba senhliziyweni kaJowashi ukuvuselela indlu yeNkosi.

Hagi ana'ma hutegeno'a, Joasi'a Ra Anumzamofo mono no eri so'e huno kinaku agesa antahi'ne.

5 Wasebuthanisa abapristi lamaLevi, wathi kibo: Phumani liye emizini yakoJuda, liqoqe kuIsrayeli wonke imali yokulungisa indlu kaNkulunkulu wenu umnyaka ngomnyaka; lina-ke, luphangiseleni udaba. Kodwa amaLevi kawaphangisanga.

Ana nehuno pristi vahetamine Livae vahetaminena kehu atru huno amanage huno zamasami'ne, Maka Juda mopafima me'nea rankumatmimpi vuta Israeli vahepintira kafune kafunema Ra Anumzamofo mono noma eriso'e huta ki'nuna silva zagoa zogita egahaze. Hagi anagema huteno'a, ame huta viho huno huzmante'ne. Hianagi Livae vahe'mo'za kema hiazana hu'za ame hu'za ovu'naze.

6 Inkosi yasibiza uJehoyada inhloko, yathi kuye: Kungani ungabizanga kumaLevi ukuthi alethe esusa koJuda laseJerusalema umthelo kaMozisi inceku yeNkosi, lowebandla lakoIsrayeli okwethente lobufakazi?

E'inama hazageno'a kini ne'mo'a ugota pristi ne' Jehoiadana amanage huno antahige'ne, Nahigenka Livae vahetmina ame hunka huozmantanke'za Juda mopafinti'ene Jerusalemi kumapintira Ra Anumzamofo eri'za vahe Mosese'ma hu'nea kantera ante'za takesi zagone, kasegema ante nomofo zagoa zogiza nomaze?

7 Ngoba amadodana kaAthaliya okhohlakeleyo afohlela endlini kaNkulunkulu, futhi-ke ayesebenzisele oBhali zonke izinto ezingcwele zendlu yeNkosi.

Na'ankure kefo avu'ava'ene a' Atalia mofavre'ramimo'za Anumzamofo mono nona tapage hu'za ufre'za, Ra Anumzamofo zanema hu'za eri ruotge'ma hunte'naza zantamina eri'za, Bali havi anumzamofonte mono hunte zantami ome ante'naze.

8 Inkosi yasilaya, asesenza ibhokisi elilodwa, alibeka esangweni lendlu kaJehova phandle.

Anage nehuno kini ne' Joasi'a ke hige'za mago vogisi tro hu'za Ra Anumzamofo mono kuma kafante ante'naze.

9 Asesenza isimemezelo koJuda laseJerusalema ukuthi balethe eNkosini umthelo kaMozisi inceku kaNkulunkulu owabekwa phezu kukaIsrayeli enkangala.

Hagi Israeli vahetmima hagege kokampima mani'nazageno Anumzamofo eri'za ne' Mosese'ma hige'zama takisima zogi'za eme ami'nazaza hu'za, Judane Jerusalema nemaniza vahetega takisi zagoa erita eho huno kea atregeno vuno eno hu'ne.

10 Zonke iziphathamandla labo bonke abantu basebethokoza, baletha baphosela ebhokisini baze baqeda.

Higeno maka kva vahe'mo'zane, maka vahe'mo'zanena muse nehu'za ana vogisifina zagoa eri'za eme nentazageno avite'ne.

11 Kwakusithi-ke ngesikhathi eletha ibhokisi kumhloli wenkosi ngesandla samaLevi, lalapho ebona ukuthi kulemali enengi, umabhalane wenkosi lenduna yompristi oyinhloko beze balithulule ibhokisi, balithathe balibuyisele endaweni yalo. Benza njalo-ke insuku ngensuku, baqoqa imali ngobunengi.

Hagi Livae vahe'mo'zama ana zago vogisima eri'za kini ne'mofo eri'za vahete'ene, zago'are'ma kegavama nehaza vahetema azage'za, ana vahe'mo'za ana zagoma ante vogisima kazama silva zagomo'ma avi'matenege'za ana zagoa ruherafi nente'za, ete eri'za ana kuma kafante ome antetere hu'naze. Maka kna ana huvava nehu'za tusi silva zago zogi'naze.

12 Inkosi loJehoyada basebeyinika abenzi bomsebenzi wenkonzo wendlu kaJehova, baqhatsha abakha ngamatshe lababazi ukuvuselela indlu kaJehova, njalo labakhandi bensimbi lethusi ukuqinisa indlu kaJehova.

Hagi kini ne' Joasi'ene Jehoiadakea ana zagoa erike Ra Anumzamofo mono noma eri so'ema hu' vahe zamazampi ante'na'e. Ana nehuke noma ki vahetamine, zamazanteti'ma keonkezama tro hu vahe'ene, ainine bronsinema kreno ke'onkezama trohu vahetaminena zagoa mizasezmantazage'za Ra Anumzamofo mono nona eri so'e hu'za ki'naze.

13 Ngakho abenzi bomsebenzi basebenza, kwaze kwathi ukuvuselelwa komsebenzi kwaqhubeka ngesandla sabo, bayimisa indlu kaNkulunkulu ngesilinganiso sayo, bayiqinisa.

Hagi ana eri'za vahe'mo'za hanaveti'za eri'zana e'nerizageno, eri'zamo'a ome vagarege'za ko'ma hu'nazaza hu'za Anumzamofo mono nona eri hanavetiza eri so'e hu'za ki'naze.

14 Kwathi sebeqedile baletha imali eseleyo phambi kwenkosi loJehoyada, abenza ngayo izitsha zendlu kaJehova, izitsha zenkonzo lezokunikela, lezinkezo, lezitsha zegolide lezesiliva. Basebenikela njalonjalo iminikelo yokutshiswa endlini kaJehova zonke izinsuku zikaJehoyada.

Hagi ana eri'zama eri vagamarete'za amnema me'nea zago'a eri atru hu'za eri'za kini ne'ene, Jehoiadakizni eme znamizageke, ana zagoa erike Ra Anumzamofo nompima antesaza golire zantamima silvare zantamine tro hu'na'e. Hagi Jehoiadama pristima mani'nea kna'afina, Ra Anumzamofo mono nompina vahe'mo'za ofa eri'za eme kresramna vu vava hu'naze.

15 UJehoyada waseguga wenela ngezinsuku, wafa; wayeleminyaka elikhulu lamatshumi amathathu ekufeni kwakhe.

Hianagi Jehoiada'a 130'a kafu huteno ozafareno fri'ge'za,

16 Basebemngcwabela emzini kaDavida lamakhosi, ngoba wayenze okulungileyo koIsrayeli lakuNkulunkulu lendlu yakhe.

kini vahetmima asenezmantazafi Deviti rankumapi asente'naze. Na'ankure agra Israeli vahete'ene, Anumzamofonte'ene mono nompine agra nagate'enena knare avu'avaza hu'ne.

17 Emva kokufa kukaJehoyada iziphathamandla zakoJuda zasezisiza zakhothama phambi kwenkosi; khona inkosi yazilalela.

Hagi Jehoiada'ma fritege'za Juda kumatamimpinti kva vahe'mo'za kini ne' Joasinte eza eme kepri hu'za ra agi nemi'za antahintahia eme amizageno, ana antahintahi zamia amage ante'ne.

18 Basebeyitshiya indlu yeNkosi, uNkulunkulu waboyise, bakhonza izixuku lezithombe. Kwasekusehlela ulaka phezu kukaJuda leJerusalema ngenxa yalelicala labo.

Ana'ma hige'za kini ne'mo'ene vahetamimo'za Ra Anumzana zamagehe'i Anumzamofo mono nona atre'za, zafare'ma antre'za Asera havi anumzamofo amema'ama tro'ma hunte'naza zante'ene, kaza osu havi anumzantminte monora hunte'naze. E'ina hazageno Juda vahe'ene Jerusalemi vahera Anumzamo'a tusi arimpa ahezmante'ne.

19 Kodwa yathuma abaprofethi phakathi kwabo ukubabuyisela eNkosini; basebefakaza bemelene labo, kodwa kababekanga indlebe.

Ra Anumzamo'a antahintahi zamima zamazeri rukrahe hanige'za Agritega ehogu'ma, kasnampa vahetmina huzmantege'za kefo avu'ava zana atretma Anumzamofonte eho hu'za ome zmasamizanagi, ana kezmia ontahi'naze.

20 UMoya kaNkulunkulu wasesembesa uZekhariya indodana kaJehoyada umpristi owema ngaphezu kwabantu, wathi kibo: Utsho njalo uNkulunkulu: Kungani liseqa imilayo yeNkosi ukuze lingaphumeleli? Ngoba liyitshiyile iNkosi, layo ilitshiyile.

Ana hazageno Ra Anumzamofo Avamu'mo'a pristi ne' Jehoiada nemofo Zekaraiante hanavetino egeno, ana vahetmimofo zamavuga otino amanage huno zamasmi'ne, Anumzamo'a amanage hie, Nahigeta Ra Anumzamofo kasegea amagera nontazageno, maka zama hazazamo'a knarera nosie? Na'ankure tamagra Ra Anumzamofona tamagena humizageno, Agranena ana zanke huno amagena tamagrira hurami'ne.

21 Basebemenzela ugobe, bamkhanda ngamatshe ngomlayo wenkosi, egumeni lendlu kaJehova.

Hianagi ahe frinaku kea retro hutazageno, kini ne'mo'a ahe friho hige'za Zekaraiana Ra Anumzamofo mono nonkumapi have knonu ahe fri'naze.

22 Ngokunjalo uJowashi inkosi kawukhumbulanga umusa uJehoyada uyise ayemenzele wona, kodwa wabulala indodana yakhe. Lalapho esifa wathi: INkosi kayibone ikufune.

Hagi Joasi'a Jehoiada'ma knare'zama hunte'nea zankura agesa ontahi, nemofo Zekaraiana ke'a omne vahera ahe fri'ne. Hagi havenknonu'ma Zekaraiama ahazagenoma nefrino'a amanage hu'ne, Amama haza zana Ra Anumzamo'a negeno, Agra'a nona huzmantesie.

23 Kwasekusithi ekuthwaseni komnyaka ibutho leSiriya lenyuka lamelana laye; basebefika koJuda leJerusalema, babhubhisa zonke iziphathamandla zabantu ebantwini, bathumela yonke impango yazo enkosini yeDamaseko.

Hagi ana kafumo'ma vagamaneregeno kasefa kafuma agafama nehigeno'a, Siria sondia vahe'mo'za Juda vahe'ene Jerusalemi kumapima nemaniza vahe'enena ha' eme huzmante'za, maka ranra kva vahetmina zamahe hana nehu'za, maka fenozmia eri'za Damaskasi kini netega atrazageno vu'ne.

24 Lanxa ibutho lamaSiriya leza lilamadoda amalutshwana, kanti iNkosi yanikela esandleni sawo ibutho elikhulu kakhulu, ngoba babeyitshiyile iNkosi uNkulunkulu waboyise. Ngalokho benza izigwebo kuJowashi.

Juda vahera rama'a sondia vahe manizageno, Siria sondia vahera osi'a vahe' e'nazanagi, Ra Anumzamo'a Siria sondia vahe zamazampi Juda sondia vahera zamavarentege'za hara huzmagatere'naze. Na'ankure Juda vahe'mo'za Ra Anumzana zamafahe'i Anumzamofo zamagena humi'naze. E'i ana agafare Joasina hazenkea ami'naze.

25 Kwathi sebesukile kuye, ngoba bemtshiye esemikhuhlaneni emikhulu, inceku zakhe zamenzela ugobe ngenxa yegazi lamadodana kaJehoyada umpristi, zambulalela embhedeni wakhe, wasesifa; basebemngcwabela emzini kaDavida, kodwa kabamngcwabanga emangcwabeni amakhosi.

Hagi ha'ma huvagamanere'za, Joasina ahe kuzafa nente'za atre'za vu'naze. Ana'ma hazage'za pristi ne' Jehoiada nemofo Zekaraiama ahe fri'nea zante eri'za vahe'aramimo'za ke hugantugma hu'za tafe'are'ma masenere ahe frite'za, Deviti rankumapi ome asente'nazanagi, kini vahe'ma asezmante matipina aseonte'nazanki, rufi ome asente'naze.

26 Lalaba yibo ababemenzele ugobe: OZabadi indodana kaShimeyathi umAmonikazi, loJehozabadi indodana kaShimirithi umMowabikazi.

Hagi kema hugantugama huke Joasima ahe fri'na'a ne'trena, Amoni a'mo Simeati kasente'nea ne' Zabadi'ene, Moapu a'mo Simireti'ma kasente'nea ne' Jehozabatike ahe fri'na'e.

27 Mayelana lamadodana akhe, lobukhulu bomthwalo phezu kwakhe, lokumiswa kwendlu kaNkulunkulu, khangela, kubhaliwe endabeni yogwalo lwamakhosi. UAmaziya indodana yakhe wasesiba yinkosi esikhundleni sakhe.

Hagi kini vahetmimofo zamagenkema krente'naza avontafepi, Joasi mofavrerami zamagenkene, kasnampa vahe'mo'zama agrikuma kasnampa kema hu'naza nanekea krente'naze. Hagi anama hutegeno'a nemofo Amasia Joasi nona erino kinia mani'ne.
