2 Imilando 25
1 UAmaziya eseleminyaka engamatshumi amabili lanhlanu waba yinkosi; wabusa iminyaka engamatshumi amabili lesificamunwemunye eJerusalema. Lebizo likanina lalinguJehowadani weJerusalema.
Amasia dii hene no, na wadi mfirihyia aduonu anum, na odii ade mfirihyia aduonu akron wɔ Yerusalem. Na ne na din de Yehoadan a ofi Yerusalem.
2 Wasesenza okuqondileyo emehlweni eNkosi, kodwa kungeyisikho ngenhliziyo epheleleyo.
Amasia yɛɛ nea ɛteɛ wɔ Awurade ani, nanso na emfi ne koma nyinaa mu.
3 Kwasekusithi umbuso usuqinisiwe kuye, wabulala inceku zakhe ezazibulele inkosi uyise.
Bere a Amasia tim wɔ nʼahenni mu yiye no, okunkum mmarima a wokum nʼagya a na ɔyɛ ɔhene no.
4 Kodwa kababulalanga abantwana bazo, kodwa wenza njengokubhaliweyo emlayweni wogwalo lukaMozisi lapho iNkosi eyalaya khona isithi: Oyise kabayikufa ngenxa yabantwana, labantwana kabayikufa ngenxa yaboyise, kodwa wonke uzafela isono sakhe.
Nanso wankunkum awudifo no mma, efisɛ otiee Awurade ahyɛde a wɔakyerɛw wɔ Mose mmara nhoma no mu no se: Ɛnsɛ sɛ wokunkum awofo wɔ wɔn mma bɔne a wɔayɛ nti, anaa wokunkum mma wɔ awofo bɔne a wɔayɛ nti. Wɔn a wɔsɛ owu no, ɛsɛ sɛ wokum wɔn wɔ wɔn nnebɔne nti.
5 UAmaziya wasebuthanisa uJuda, wabamisa ngokwendlu yaboyise baba zinduna zezinkulungwane lezinduna zamakhulu, kuye wonke uJuda loBhenjamini. Wababala kusukela koleminyaka engamatshumi amabili kusiya phezulu, wabathola bezinkulungwane ezingamakhulu amathathu zabakhethiweyo, abaphuma impi, ababamba umkhonto lesihlangu esikhulu.
Ade foforo a Amasia yɛe ne sɛ, ɔyɛɛ nhyehyɛe foforo wɔ asraafo no mu, de ntuanofo tuatuaa Yuda ne Benyamin mmusua no mu biara ano. Afei, ɔkan wɔn huu sɛ nʼakofo a wɔadi mfe aduonu rekɔ no dodow yɛ mmarima mpem ahaasa, na wɔatetew wɔn nyinaa wɔ peawtow ne nkatabokura mu.
6 Wabuya waqhatsha koIsrayeli amaqhawe alamandla azinkulungwane ezilikhulu ngamathalenta esiliva alikhulu.
Ɔsan tuaa dwetɛ tɔn 3.4 sɛ apaade maa Israel mmarima mpem ɔha a wonim akodi yiye.
7 Kodwa kwafika umuntu kaNkulunkulu kuye, esithi: Nkosi, ibutho lakoIsrayeli kalingahambi lawe, ngoba iNkosi kayilaye uIsrayeli, kusitsho bonke abantwana bakoEfrayimi.
Nanso Onyankopɔn nipa baa ɔhene no nkyɛn bɛkae se, “Ɔhene, ntua sika mfa asraafo mfi Israel, efisɛ Awurade nka Israel ho. Ɔremmoa saa nnipa a wofi Efraim no.
8 Kodwa uba uhamba, kwenze, qinela impi; uNkulunkulu uzakwenza ukhubeke phambi kwesitha; ngoba kulamandla kuNkulunkulu okusiza lokukhubekisa.
Sɛ woma wɔkɔka wʼakofo ho kɔ ɔko, na moko sɛ dɛn ara a, wobedi mo so nkonim. Onyankopɔn betu mo agu, efisɛ ɔwɔ tumi sɛ ɔboa anaa ɔsɛe.”
9 UAmaziya wasesithi emuntwini kaNkulunkulu: Pho, senzeni ngamathalenta alikhulu engiwanike iviyo lakoIsrayeli? Umuntu kaNkulunkulu wasesithi: INkosi ilokunengi kulalokhu okokukunika.
Amasia bisaa Onyankopɔn nipa no se, “Na dwetɛ a mitua kɔbɔɔ Israel asraafo paa no nso menyɛ no dɛn?” Onyankopɔn nipa no buae se, “Awurade betumi ama wo nea ɛsen sɛɛ koraa.”
10 UAmaziya wasebehlukanisa, kusitsho iviyo elalifike kuye livela koEfrayimi, ukuze baye endaweni yabo. Ngakho ulaka lwabo lwamvuthela kakhulu uJuda, babuyela endaweni yabo bevutha ulaka.
Enti Amasia pɔn asraafo a ɔbɔɔ wɔn paa no ma wɔsan kɔɔ Efraim. Eyi maa wɔn bo fuw Yuda, na wɔsan de abufuwhyew kɔɔ fie.
11 UAmaziya waseziqinisa, wakhokhela abantu bakhe, waya esihotsheni setshwayi, watshaya abantwana beSeyiri, izinkulungwane ezilitshumi.
Na Amasia sii ne bo, dii nʼakofo anim, kɔɔ Nkyene Bon no mu. Ɛhɔ na wokum Edomfo asraafo a wofi Seir no mpem du.
12 Abantwana bakoJuda basebethumba abazinkulungwane ezilitshumi abaphilayo, babasa engqongeni yeliwa, babaphosa besengqongeni yeliwa, baze baphahlazeka bonke.
Wɔkyekyeree mpem du bio de wɔn kɔɔ abotan tenten bi atifi, kosunsum wɔn ma wɔbɛhwee abotan a ɛwɔ bepɔw no ase no so, tetew pasapasa.
13 Kodwa abantu beviyo uAmaziya ayelibuyisele emuva ukuthi bangahambi laye empini, bahlasela imizi yakoJuda, kusukela eSamariya kuze kube seBhethi-Horoni, batshaya abazinkulungwane ezintathu zabo, baphanga impango enengi.
Na asraafo a Amasia kɔbɔɔ wɔn paa a ɔma wɔsan kɔe no tow hyɛɛ Yuda nkurow bebree a ɛwɔ Samaria ne Bet-Horon ntam no so. Wokunkum nnipa mpensa, tasee asade bebree.
14 Kwasekusithi emva kokubuya kukaAmaziya ekutshayeni amaEdoma, waletha onkulunkulu babantwana beSeyiri, wabamisa baba ngonkulunkulu bakhe, wabakhothamela, wabatshisela impepha.
Bere a ɔhene Amasia dii Edomfo so a ɔreba no, ɔde ahoni a ɔtase fii Seirfo nkyɛn kaa ne ho bae. Ɔde wɔn sisii hɔ sɛ ɔno ankasa anyame, kotow wɔn anim, bɔɔ afɔre maa wɔn.
15 Ngalokhu ulaka lweNkosi lwamvuthela uAmaziya, yathuma kuye umprofethi owathi kuye: Ubadingelani onkulunkulu babantu abangophulanga abantu babo esandleni sakho?
Eyi hyɛɛ Awurade abufuw yiye nti, ɔsomaa odiyifo sɛ onkobisa se, “Adɛn nti na wosom anyame a mpo wontumi nnye wɔn ankasa nkurɔfo nkwa mfi wo nsam?”
16 Kodwa kwathi ekhuluma laye, wathi kuye: Sikubekile yini ukuthi ube ngumeluleki wenkosi? Ziyekelele! Kungani bezakutshaya? Umprofethi waseyekela wathi: Ngiyazi ukuthi uNkulunkulu unqume ukukubhubhisa, ngoba wenze lokhu, kawulalelanga iseluleko sami.
Nanso ɔhene no amma nʼano ansi, na ɔkae se, “Da bɛn na mibisaa wo afotu? Mua wʼano na mankum wo!” Enti ansa na odiyifo no rebɛkɔ no, ɔbɔɔ saa kɔkɔ yi, “Minim sɛ esiane sɛ woayɛ saa nti, Onyankopɔn ayɛ nʼadwene sɛ ɔbɛsɛe wo, efisɛ woantie mʼafotu.”
17 UAmaziya inkosi yakoJuda wasethatha iseluleko, wathumela kuJowashi indodana kaJehowahazi indodana kaJehu, inkosi yakoIsrayeli, esithi: Woza, sikhangelane ubuso.
Akyiri a Yudahene Amasia kɔɔ nʼafotufo nkyɛn kobisaa afotu no, ɔde sii Israelhene Yoas a na ɔyɛ Yehoahas babarima, na ɔyɛ Yehu nena nso anim se, “Bra na yenni ako.”
18 UJowashi inkosi yakoIsrayeli wasethumela kuAmaziya inkosi yakoJuda esithi: Ukhula oluhlabayo oluseLebhanoni lwathumela emsedarini oseLebhanoni lusithi: Phana indodana yami indodakazi yakho ibe ngumkayo; kodwa isilo seganga esasiseLebhanoni sedlula, salugxoba ukhula oluhlabayo.
Na Israelhene Yoas buaa Yudahene Amasia se, “Nsɔe a ɛwɔ Lebanon mmepɔw so somaa abɔfo kɔɔ dutan sida nkyɛn kɔka kyerɛɛ no se, ‘Fa wo babea ma me babarima aware.’ Ɛhɔ ara na aboa bi fi wuram betiatiaa nsɔe no so sɛee no.
19 Uthi: Khangela, uyitshayile iEdoma; ngakho inhliziyo yakho iyakuphakamisa ukuthi uzincome; khathesi hlala endlini yakho; kungani uzazingenisa ebubini ukuze uwe, wena loJuda elawe?
Nokware woadi Edom so nkonim, ama woayɛ ahantan. Ma wʼani nsɔ wo nkonimdi no, na tena wo fi. Adɛn nti na wopere wo ho kɔ ɔhaw a ɛde amanehunu bɛba wo ne Yudafo nyinaa so yi?”
20 Kodwa uAmaziya kalalelanga; ngoba kwakungokukaNkulunkulu ukuze abanikele esandleni sabo, ngoba babedinge onkulunkulu beEdoma.
Amasia yɛɛ asoɔden, efisɛ na Onyankopɔn resiesie kwan bi afa so asɛe no, sɛ ɔsom Edom anyame no nti.
21 UJowashi inkosi yakoIsrayeli wasesenyuka, bakhangelana ubuso, yena loAmaziya inkosi yakoJuda, eBeti-Shemeshi engeyakoJuda.
Na Israelhene Yoas, boaboaa nʼakofo ano kotiaa Yudahene Amasia. Asraafodɔm abien no hyiaa wɔ Bet-Semes a ɛwɔ Yuda.
22 UJuda wasetshaywa phambi kukaIsrayeli, babaleka, ngulowo waya ethenteni lakhe.
Israel asraafo dii Yuda so nkonim ma wɔbɔɔ ahwete, guan kɔɔ wɔn kurom.
23 UJowashi inkosi yakoIsrayeli wasembamba uAmaziya inkosi yakoJuda, indodana kaJowashi, indodana kaJehowahazi, eBeti-Shemeshi, wamletha eJerusalema, wadilizela phansi okomduli weJerusalema, kusukela esangweni lakoEfrayimi kuze kube sesangweni lengonsi, izingalo ezingamakhulu amane.
Israelhene Yoas kyeree Yudahene Amasia wɔ Bet-Semes, na ɔsan de no baa Yerusalem. Afei, Yehoas hyɛɛ nʼakofo sɛ, wɔnsɛe Yerusalem fasu no anammɔn ahansia a efi Efraim Pon ano, kosi Twɔtwɔw Pon no ano.
24 Wasethatha lonke igolide lesiliva, lezitsha zonke ezatholakala endlini kaNkulunkulu kuObedi-Edoma, lokuligugu kwendlu yenkosi, labayisibambiso, wabuyela eSamariya.
Ɔtasee sikakɔkɔɔ ne dwetɛ ne nneɛma ahorow a ɛwɔ Onyankopɔn Asɔredan mu a na Obed-Edom hwɛ so no nyinaa. Afei, ɔfaa adekoradan a na ɛwɔ ahemfi hɔ mu nneɛma kaa nnommum no ho, na ɔsan kɔɔ Samaria.
25 UAmaziya indodana kaJowashi inkosi yakoJuda wasephila iminyaka elitshumi lanhlanu emva kokufa kukaJowashi indodana kaJehowahazi inkosi yakoIsrayeli.
Israelhene Yoas, Yehoahas babarima wu akyi no, Yudahene Amasia tenaa ase mfe dunum.
26 Ezinye-ke zezindaba zikaAmaziya, ezokuqala lezokucina, khangela, kazibhalwanga yini egwalweni lwamakhosi akoJuda lawakoIsrayeli?
Amasia ahenni ho nsɛm nkae, efi mfiase kosi awiei no, wɔankyerɛw angu Yuda ahemfo ne Israel ahemfo nhoma no mu ana?
27 Njalo kusukela esikhathini uAmaziya aphambuka ngaso ekulandeleni iNkosi bamenzela ugobe eJerusalema; wasebalekela eLakishi; kodwa bathumela emva kwakhe eLakishi, bambulalela khona.
Amasia dan ne ho fii Awurade akyidi no, wɔpam ne ti so wɔ Yerusalem. Ɛno nti, oguan kɔɔ Lakis. Nanso nʼatamfo somaa awudifo, tiw no kokum no wɔ hɔ.
28 Basebemthwala ngamabhiza, bamngcwaba kuboyise emzini kaJuda.
Wɔde no too ɔpɔnkɔ so baa Yerusalem besiee no kaa nʼagyanom ho wɔ Dawid kurom.
