2 Imilando 30
1 UHezekhiya wasethumela kuIsrayeli wonke loJuda, wasebhalela loEfrayimi loManase izincwadi, ukuthi beze endlini yeNkosi eJerusalema ukwenzela iNkosi uNkulunkulu kaIsrayeli iphasika.
Ɔhene Hesekia de nkra kɔɔ Israel ne Yuda nyinaa, na ɔkyerɛw krataa too nsa de frɛɛ Efraim ne Manase. Ɔka kyerɛɛ obiara se ɔmmra Awurade Asɔredan no mu wɔ Yerusalem, na wonni Awurade, Israel Nyankopɔn, Twam Afahyɛ no.
2 Ngoba inkosi yelulekana lezikhulu zayo lebandla lonke eJerusalema ukwenza iphasika ngenyanga yesibili.
Ɔhene no, ne mpanyimfo ne ɔmanfo a wɔwɔ Yerusalem nyinaa yɛɛ adwene sɛ wobedi Twam no ɔsram a ɛto so abien no mu.
3 Ngoba babengelakukwenza ngalesosikhathi ngoba abapristi babengazingcwelisanga ngokweneleyo, labantu babengabuthananga eJerusalema.
Na anka wodi Twam no ɔsram ansa na ɔsram a ɛto so abien no afi ase, nanso na asɔfo no bebree ntumi nnwiraa wɔn ho, na ɔmanfo no nso mmoaa wɔn ho ano wɔ Yerusalem ɛ.
4 Lodaba lwaluqondile emehlweni enkosi lemehlweni ebandla lonke.
Adwene a wɔyɛɛ sɛ wobedi Twam no, na eye ma ɔhene no ne ɔmanfo no nyinaa.
5 Basebemisa ilizwi ukwedlulisela isimemezelo kuIsrayeli wonke kusukela eBherishebha kusiya koDani, ukuthi bazekwenzela iNkosi uNkulunkulu kaIsrayeli iphasika eJerusalema; ngoba okwesikhathi eside babengenzanga njengokubhaliweyo.
Enti wɔbɔɔ no dawuru wɔ Israel nyinaa fi Beer-Seba a ɛwɔ anafo fam kosi Dan a ɛwɔ atifi fam sɛ, obiara mmra Yerusalem mmedi Awurade, Israel Nyankopɔn Twam no bi. Na nnipa dodow nni Twam no sɛnea mmara no kyerɛ.
6 Ngakho izigijimi zahamba kuIsrayeli wonke loJuda zilezincwadi ezivela esandleni senkosi leziphathamandla zayo, langokomlayo wenkosi zisithi: Bantwana bakoIsrayeli, buyelani eNkosini, uNkulunkulu kaAbrahama, uIsaka, loIsrayeli, njalo izabuyela kwabaphunyukileyo abasele kini esandleni samakhosi eAsiriya.
Ɔhene no hyɛ ma wɔsomaa abɔfo kɔɔ Israel ne Yuda mmaa nyinaa. Wɔmaa wɔn nkrataa a na emu nsɛm ka se: “Israel manfo, monsan mmra Awurade, Abraham, Isak ne Israel Nyankopɔn nkyɛn, sɛnea ɔbɛsan aba mo, nnipa kakra a moaka, mo a moatumi aguan afi Asiria ahemfo nsam no nkyɛn.
7 Njalo lingabi njengaboyihlo lanjengabafowenu ababephambuka eNkosini uNkulunkulu waboyise, yaze yabanikela ekuchithweni njengoba libona.
Monnyɛ sɛ mo agyanom ne mo abusuafo a wogyaw Awurade, wɔn agyanom Nyankopɔn, a wɔyɛɛ aserewde sɛnea mo ankasa muhu yi.
8 Khathesi lingaqinisi intamo yenu njengaboyihlo; zinikeleni eNkosini, lingene endlini yayo engcwele eyingcwelise kuze kube nininini, likhonze iNkosi uNkulunkulu wenu, ukuze ukuvutha kolaka lwayo kubuyele emuva kusuke kini.
Monnyɛ asoɔden sɛnea na wɔte no, na mmom, mommrɛ mo ho ase mma Awurade. Mommra nʼAsɔredan a wɔayi asi hɔ sɛ ade kronkron no mu daa nyinaa. Monsom Awurade, mo Nyankopɔn, sɛnea nʼabufuwhyew no befi mo so.
9 Ngoba ekubuyeleni kwenu eNkosini, abafowenu labantwana benu bazathola izihawu phambi kwababathumbileyo, ukuze babuye kulelilizwe. Ngoba iNkosi uNkulunkulu wenu ilomusa lesihawu, kayiyikuphendula ubuso busuke kini uba libuyela kuyo.
Na sɛ mosan ba Awurade nkyɛn a, mo abusuafo ne mo mma benya ahummɔbɔ wɔ wɔn a wɔfaa wɔn nnommum no nsam, na wobetumi asan aba asase yi so. Efisɛ Awurade, mo Nyankopɔn yɛ ɔdɔ ne ahummɔbɔ. Sɛ mosan ba ne nkyɛn a, ɔrenyi nʼani mfi mo so.”
10 Ngokunjalo izigijimi zedlula zisuka emzini zisiya emzini elizweni lakoEfrayimi lelakoManase kuze kube koZebuluni; kodwa bazihleka baziklolodela.
Abɔfo no kyinii nkurow a ɛwɔ Efraim ne Manase kosi Sebulon so. Nanso nnipa no mu bebree serew abɔfo no, dii wɔn ho fɛw.
11 Kube kanti abanye bakoAsheri labakoManase labakoZebuluni bazithoba, beza eJerusalema.
Nanso wɔn a wofi Aser, Manase ne Sebulon mu bi brɛɛ wɔn ho ase, kɔɔ Yerusalem.
12 LakoJuda isandla sikaNkulunkulu sasikhona ukubanika inhliziyonye ukwenza umlayo wenkosi leziphathamandla ngelizwi likaJehova.
Saa bere koro no ara mu, na Onyankopɔn nsa wɔ nnipa a wɔwɔ Yuda no so. Na ɛhyɛ wɔn sɛ wɔnyɛ baako, na wɔnyɛ osetie mma Awurade asɛm a efi ɔhene ne ne mpanyimfo no nkyɛn no.
13 Kwasekubuthana eJerusalema abantu abanengi ukwenza umkhosi wesinkwa esingelamvubelo ngenyanga yesibili, ibandla elikhulu kakhulu.
Enti dɔm kɛse hyiaa wɔ Yerusalem ɔsram a ɛto so abien no mu, sɛ wɔrebedi Twam no ne Apiti Afahyɛ no.
14 Basebesukuma basusa amalathi ayeseJerusalema, lawo wonke amalathi okutshisela impepha bawasusa, bawaphosela esihotsheni iKidroni.
Wofii ase bubuu abosonsomfo afɔremuka no nyinaa fii Yerusalem. Woyiyii nnuhuam afɔremuka nyinaa kɔtow guu Kidron bon mu.
15 Basebehlaba iphasika ngolwetshumi lane lwenyanga yesibili; abapristi lamaLevi basebeyangeka, bazingcwelisa, baletha iminikelo yokutshiswa endlini yeNkosi.
Da a wɔahyɛ wɔ ɔsram a ɛto so abien no dui no, ɔmanfo no kunkum wɔn Twam nguantenmma. Na asɔfo no ne Lewifo no ani wui nti, wodwiraa wɔn ho, na wɔde ɔhyew afɔre baa Awurade Asɔredan mu.
16 Basebesima endaweni yabo ejwayelekileyo njengendlela yabo ngokomlayo kaMozisi umuntu kaNkulunkulu; abapristi bafafaza igazi elalivela esandleni samaLevi.
Obiara kogyinaa nʼafa wɔ Asɔredan no mu, sɛnea Mose a ɔyɛ Onyankopɔn nipa no mmara no kyerɛ no. Lewifo no de mogya afɔrebɔde no brɛɛ asɔfo no, maa wɔn nso pete guu afɔremuka no so.
17 Ngoba babebanengi ebandleni ababengazingcwelisanga; ngakho amaLevi ayephezu kokuhlatshwa kwamaphasika kwalowo lalowo owayengahlambulukanga ukubangcwelisela iNkosi.
Esiane sɛ na ɔmanfo no mu bebree nnwiraa wɔn ho nti, Lewifo no na wokunkum wɔn Twam nguantenmma no maa wɔn, nam so tew ho maa Awurade.
18 Ngoba ixuku labantu, abanengi bakoEfrayimi, loManase, uIsakari, loZebuluni babengazihlambululanga, kube kanti badla iphasika kungenjengokubhaliweyo. Kodwa uHezekhiya wabakhulekela wathi: INkosi elungileyo kayimenzele inhlawulo yokuthula,
Na wɔn a wofi Efraim, Manase, Isakar ne Sebulon no mu fa kɛse no ara nnwira wɔn ho de, nanso ɔhene Hesekia bɔɔ mpae maa wɔn, na wɔmaa wɔn kwan ma wodii Twam aduan no bi a na anka etia Onyankopɔn mmara. Hesekia bɔɔ mpae se, “Awurade a ɔyɛ mmɔborɔhunufo no mfa nnipa a
19 wonke olungise inhliziyo yakhe ukudinga uNkulunkulu, iNkosi uNkulunkulu waboyise, lanxa kungenjengokuhlanjululwa kwendawo engcwele.
wɔasi wɔn adwene pi sɛ wobedi Awurade, wɔn agyanom Nyankopɔn akyi no bɔne nkyɛ wɔn, mpo, sɛ wonnwiraa wɔn ho yiye mmaa afahyɛ no a.”
20 INkosi yasimuzwa uHezekhiya, yabelapha abantu.
Na Awurade tiee Hesekia na ɔsaa ɔmanfo no yare.
21 Abantwana bakoIsrayeli abatholakala eJerusalema basebesenza umkhosi wesinkwa esingelamvubelo insuku eziyisikhombisa ngentokozo enkulu; lamaLevi labapristi bayidumisa iNkosi insuku ngensuku, ngezinto zokuhlabelela ngamandla eNkosini.
Enti ɔmanfo a wɔwɔ Yerusalem no de nnanson dii Apiti Afahyɛ no anigye so. Da biara, Lewifo ne asɔfo no too nnwom maa Awurade de nnwontode a ano yɛ den memmaa ho.
22 UHezekhiya wasekhuluma ngomusa kumaLevi wonke ayelokuqedisisa elwazini oluhle lweNkosi. Badla-ke okomkhosi omisiweyo insuku eziyisikhombisa benikela iminikelo yokuthula, beyidumisa iNkosi, uNkulunkulu waboyise.
Hesekia hyɛɛ Lewifo no nkuran wɔ ɔkwan pa a wɔfa so som Awurade no ho. Na afahyɛ no kɔɔ so nnanson. Wɔbɔɔ asomdwoe afɔre, na ɔmanfo kaa wɔn bɔne kyerɛɛ Awurade, wɔn agyanom Nyankopɔn.
23 Ibandla lonke laselicebisana ukwenza ezinye insuku eziyisikhombisa; benza ezinye insuku eziyisikhombisa ngentokozo.
Bagua no nyinaa yɛɛ wɔn adwene sɛ, wɔbɛtoa so adi afahyɛ no nnanson bio enti wɔde anigye toaa so nnaawɔtwe.
24 Ngoba uHezekhiya inkosi yakoJuda wanika ibandla amajongosi azinkulungwane lezimvu eziyizinkulungwane eziyisikhombisa, leziphathamandla zanika ibandla amajongosi azinkulungwane lezimvu ezizinkulungwane ezilitshumi; labapristi bazingcwelisa ngobunengi.
Ɔhene Hesekia maa ɔmanfo no anantwinini apem ne nguan mpem ason sɛ wɔmfa mmɔ afɔre, na mpanyimfo no nso maa anantwinini apem ne nguan mpem du. Bere koro no ara mu, asɔfo no bebree dwiraa wɔn ho.
25 Ibandla lonke lakoJuda, labapristi lamaLevi, lebandla lonke elivela koIsrayeli, labezizweni ababevela elizweni lakoIsrayeli, lababehlala koJuda, basebethokoza.
Yuda bagua nyinaa a asɔfo, Lewifo ne wɔn a wofi Israel asase so nyinaa, ananafo a wobedii afahyɛ no ne wɔn a na wɔte Yuda nyinaa ani gyei.
26 Kwasekusiba khona intokozo enkulu eJerusalema, ngoba kusukela ensukwini zikaSolomoni indodana kaDavida inkosi yakoIsrayeli kakuzanga kube khona okunjalo eJerusalema.
Anigye kɛse baa kuropɔn no mu, efisɛ na Yerusalem nhuu afahyɛ a ɛte sɛɛ bi da, efi Salomo ɔhene Dawid babarima no bere so.
27 Basebesukuma abapristi lamaLevi, babusisa abantu; ilizwi labo laselizwakala, lomkhuleko wabo wafika endaweni yakhe yokuhlala engcwele emazulwini.
Na asɔfo no ne Lewifo no sɔre hyiraa ɔmanfo no, na Onyankopɔn tiee wɔn, efisɛ wɔn mpaebɔ duu ɔsoro, nʼatenae wɔ kronkronbea hɔ.
