< 2 Imilando 26 >
1 Bonke abantu bakoJuda basebethatha uUziya owayeleminyaka elitshumi lesithupha, bambeka waba yinkosi esikhundleni sikayise uAmaziya.
Yuda manfo de Amasia babarima Usia a na wadi mfe dunsia tenaa ahengua so sɛ wɔn hene foforo.
2 Yena wakha iElothi, wayibuyisela koJuda emva kokulala kwenkosi laboyise.
Usia agya wu akyi no, ɔsan kyekyeree Elot kurow no, na ɔdan maa Yuda.
3 U-Uziya wayeleminyaka elitshumi lesithupha lapho esiba yinkosi; wabusa iminyaka engamatshumi amahlanu lambili eJerusalema. Lebizo likanina lalinguJekoliya weJerusalema.
Usia dii ade no, na wadi mfirihyia dunsia, na odii hene wɔ Yerusalem mfirihyia aduonum abien. Na ne na a ofi Yerusalem no din de Yeholia.
4 Wasesenza okuqondileyo emehlweni eNkosi njengakho konke uAmaziya uyise ayekwenzile.
Na ɔteɛ wɔ Awurade ani so, sɛnea nʼagya Amasia teɛ no.
5 Njalo wayemdinga uNkulunkulu ensukwini zikaZekhariya owayelokuqedisisa emibonweni kaNkulunkulu; langezinsuku zokudinga kwakhe iNkosi, uNkulunkulu wamphumelelisa.
Sakaria bere so no, Usia hwehwɛɛ Onyankopɔn akyi kwan, efisɛ ɔkaa Onyankopɔn suro ho nsɛm kyerɛɛ no. Na esiane sɛ ɔhene no hwehwɛɛ Onyankopɔn akyi kwan no nti, Onyankopɔn maa no nkɔso.
6 Wasephuma walwa lamaFilisti, wadilizela phansi umduli weGathi lomduli weJabine lomduli weAshidodi, wakha imizi eAshidodi laphakathi kwamaFilisti.
Otuu Filistifo so sa, na obubuu Gat, Yabne ne Asdod afasu. Na ɔkyekyeree nkurow afoforo wɔ Asdod fam ne mmeaemmeae bi a ɛwɔ Filistia.
7 UNkulunkulu wasemsiza ukumelana lamaFilisti, lokumelana lamaArabhiya ayehlala eGuri-Bhali, lamaMewuni.
Ɛnyɛ ɔko a ɔne Filistifo koe no mu nko ara na Onyankopɔn boaa no, na mmom ɔko a ɔne Arabfo a wɔwɔ Gur Baal koe ne Meunifo ko mu nso, ɔboaa no.
8 AmaAmoni asesipha umthelo kuUziya, lebizo lakhe lahamba laze lafika engenelweni leGibhithe, ngoba waziqinisa waze waba sengqongeni.
Meunifo no tuaa sonkahiri maa no, na ne din hyeta koduu Misraim, efisɛ na ɔwɔ tumi a ɛso.
9 Futhi uUziya wakha imiphotshongo eJerusalema esangweni lengonsi lesangweni lesigodi lengonsini, wayiqinisa.
Usia sisii ɔwɛn abantenten wɔ Yerusalem wɔ Twɔtwɔw Pon ano, Obon Pon ano ne ɔfasu no ntwea mu no.
10 Wakha lemiphotshongo enkangala, wagebha imithombo eminengi, ngoba wayelenkomo ezinengi esihotsheni kanye lemagcekeni, abalimi lezisebenzi zezivini ezintabeni leKharmeli, ngoba wayengothanda umhlabathi.
Ɔsan sisii abankɛse wɔ sare so, tutuu mmura bebree, efisɛ na ɔyɛn mmoa pii wɔ Yuda bepɔw ase hɔ. Na ɔyɛ ɔbarima a nʼani gye kua ho. Na ɔwɔ adwumayɛfo bebree a wɔhwɛ ne mfuw ne ne bobeturo a ɛwɔ mmepɔw no nsian mu ne obon nsasebere no so.
11 Futhi uUziya wayelebutho elilwayo eliphuma impi ngamaviyo ngokwenani lokubalwa kwabo ngesandla sikaJeyiyeli umabhalane loMahaseya umbusi phansi kwesandla sikaHananiya, omunye wezinduna zenkosi.
Na Usia wɔ asraafo a wɔyɛ akofo akɛse a wɔwɔ akodi mu ntetewee. Na wɔyɛ akuw akuw a wɔasiesie wɔn ho ama ɔko. Na Yeiel a ɔyɛ asraafodɔm no kyerɛwfo, ne ne boafo Maaseia na wɔboaboa akofo kuw kɛse yi ano. Na wɔhyɛ Hanania a ɔyɛ ɔhene no mpanyimfo no mu baako ase.
12 Inani lonke lezinhloko zaboyise lamaqhawe alamandla lalizinkulungwane ezimbili lamakhulu ayisithupha.
Mmusua ntuanofo mpenu ahansia na na wɔma saa akofo abenfo yi akwankyerɛ.
13 Laphansi kwesandla sazo kwakulamandla ebutho elizinkulungwane ezingamakhulu amathathu lesikhombisa lamakhulu amahlanu elalisilwa ngamandla obuqhawe ukusiza inkosi limelene lesitha.
Na asraafodɔm no dodow yɛ mpem ahaasa ne ason, ahannum a wɔn nyinaa nim de. Na wɔada wɔn ho so sɛ wɔbɛboa ɔhene no ako atia ɔtamfo biara.
14 U-Uziya wasebalungisela, ibutho lonke, izihlangu lemikhonto lamakhowa lamabhatshi ensimbi lamadandili lamatshe ezavutha.
Usia maa asraafodɔm no nyinaa nkatabo, mpeaw, nnadekyɛw, agyiraehyɛde, bɛmma ne ahwimmo abo.
15 EJerusalema wasesenza imitshina, eyaqanjwa ngohlakaniphileyo, ukuthi ibe phezu kwemiphotshongo laphezu kwezingonsi ukuphosa ngemitshoko langamatshe amakhulu. Lebizo lakhe laphuma laze laba khatshana, ngoba wasizwa ngokumangalisayo waze waqina.
Afei, abenfo bi yɛɛ mfi de sisii Yerusalem afasu no so a ɛtow agyan ne abo fi abantenten no so ne fasu twɔtwɔw so. Nʼanuonyam hyetae, efisɛ Awurade boaa no yiye kosii sɛ onyaa tumi kɛse.
16 Kodwa eseqinile, inhliziyo yakhe yaziphakamisela encithakalweni. Ngoba waphambuka eNkosini uNkulunkulu wakhe, wasengena ethempelini leNkosi ukuze atshise impepha phezu kwelathi lempepha.
Nanso onyaa tumi kɛse no, ɔyɛɛ ahantan a ɛnam so ma ɔhwee ase. Ɔyɛɛ bɔne tiaa Awurade ne Nyankopɔn, efisɛ ɔkɔɔ Awurade Asɔredan kronkronbea hɔ, kɔhyew nnuhuam wɔ afɔremuka no so.
17 UAzariya umpristi wasengena emva kwakhe elabapristi beNkosi abangamatshumi ayisificaminwembili, amadoda alamandla.
Ɔsɔfopanyin Asaria ne Awurade asɔfo foforo aduɔwɔtwe, akokodurufo kɔhwehwɛɛ no.
18 Basebemelana loUziya inkosi, bathi kuye: Kakusikho okwakho, Uziya, ukutshisela iNkosi impepha, kodwa ngokwabapristi, amadodana kaAroni abehlukaniselwe ukutshisa impepha. Phuma endaweni engcwele, ngoba uphambukile; njalo kakusikho kodumo lwakho oluvela eNkosini uNkulunkulu.
Wɔka sii ɔhene Usia anim se, “Ɛnyɛ wo Usia na ɛsɛ sɛ wohyew nnuhuam ma Awurade. Ɛyɛ asɔfo nko ara, Aaron mmabarima a, wɔayi wɔn asi hɔ ama saa dwumadi no nko ara adwuma. Fi kronkronbea ha kɔ, efisɛ woayɛ bɔne. Onyankopɔn renhyɛ wo anuonyam wɔ eyi ho.”
19 Wasethukuthela uUziya, njalo kwakulodengezi esandleni sakhe ukuze atshise impepha; esebathukuthelele abapristi, kwabonakala ubulephero ebunzini lakhe phambi kwabapristi endlini yeNkosi, ngaphezu kwelathi lempepha.
Usia bo fuw yiye, na wamfa nnuhuamhyew kuruwa a na okura no ansi fam. Ɔne asɔfo no gyina nnuhuam afɔremuka no anim wɔ Awurade Asɔredan no mu no, prɛko pɛ, kwata totɔɔ ne moma so.
20 UAzariya umpristi oyinhloko labo bonke abapristi basebemkhangela, khangela-ke, wayelobulephero ebunzini lakhe; basebemkhupha lapho masinyane, yebo laye uqobo waphangisa ukuphuma, ngoba iNkosi yayimtshayile.
Bere a Asaria ne asɔfo a wɔaka no huu kwata no, wopiapiaa no fii hɔ. Na ɔhene no ankasa pɛɛ sɛ ofi hɔ ntɛm, efisɛ Awurade na na wabɔ no.
21 U-Uziya inkosi waba ngumlephero kwaze kwaba lusuku lokufa kwakhe; wahlala endlini eyehlukanisiweyo engumlephero, ngoba waqunywa wasuka endlini kaJehova. Njalo uJothamu indodana yakhe wayephezu kwendlu yenkosi, esahlulela abantu belizwe.
Enti kwata yɛɛ ɔhene Usia kosii sɛ owui. Wɔpam no fi nnipa mu maa ɔno nko ara tenae a wankɔ Awurade Asɔredan mu. Wɔde ne babarima Yotam tenaa ahemfi hɔ ma odii nnipa a wɔwɔ asase no so no so.
22 Ezinye-ke zezindaba zikaUziya, ezokuqala lezokucina, uIsaya umprofethi, indodana kaAmozi, wazibhala.
Amos babarima Yesaia akyerɛw Usia ahenni ho nsɛm nkae fi mfiase kosi awiei ato hɔ.
23 U-Uziya waselala laboyise; basebemngcwaba kuboyise ensimini yokungcwaba eyayingeyamakhosi, ngoba bathi: Ungumlephero. UJothamu indodana yakhe wasesiba yinkosi esikhundleni sakhe.
Usia wui, na esiane sɛ kwata yɛɛ no nti, wosiee no bɛn ahemfo amusiei. Na ne babarima Yotam na odii nʼade sɛ ɔhene.
