2 Amakhosi 14
1 Ngomnyaka wesibili kaJowashi indodana kaJehowazi, inkosi yakoIsrayeli, uAmaziya indodana kaJowashi inkosi yakoJuda waba yinkosi.
I KA makahiki elua o Ioasa ke keiki a Iehoahaza, ke alii o ka Iseraela, i noho alii ai o Amazia ke keiki a Ioasa ke alii o ka Iuda.
2 Wayeleminyaka engamatshumi amabili lanhlanu lapho esiba yinkosi; wabusa iminyaka engamatshumi amabili lesificamunwemunye eJerusalema. Lebizo likanina lalinguJehowadani weJerusalema.
I ka makahiki ona he iwakaluakumamalima, i lilo ai ia i alii, a he iwakaluakumamaiwa na makahiki ana i alii ai ma Ierusalema. A o Iehoadana ka inoa o kona makuwahine no Ierusalema.
3 Wasesenza okulungileyo emehlweni eNkosi, kodwa kungenjengoDavida uyise; wenza njengakho konke uJowashi uyise akwenzayo.
A hana pono aku no ia imua o Iehova; aole nae i like me ka Davida kona kupuna: hana aku no ia e like me na mea a pau a Ioasa a kona makuakane i hana'i.
4 Loba kunjalo indawo eziphakemeyo kazisuswanga; abantu babelokhu benikela imihlatshelo betshisa impepha endaweni eziphakemeyo.
Aka hoi, aole i laweia'ku na heiau: kaumaha aku no na kanaka, a kuni hoi i ka mea ala ma na heiau.
5 Kwasekusithi umbuso wakhe usuqinisiwe esandleni sakhe, watshaya inceku zakhe ezazitshaye inkosi uyise.
A i ka manawa i hookupaaia'i ke aupuni ma kona lima, pepehi aku la no ia i kana poe kauwa, nana i pepehi aku ke alii kona makuakane.
6 Kodwa abantwana bababulali kababulalanga, njengokubhaliweyo ogwalweni lomlayo kaMozisi lapho iNkosi eyalaya khona isithi: Oyise kabayikubulawa ngenxa yabantwana, labantwana kabayikubulawa ngenxa yaboyise, kodwa wonke umuntu uzabulawelwa isono sakhe.
Aka, aole ia i pepehi aku i na keiki a ka poe pepehi kanaka: e like me ka palapala ma ka buke o ke kanawai o Mose, ka mea a Iehova i kauoha ai, i mai la, Aole e pepehiia na makua no na keiki, aole hoi e pepehiia na keiki no na makua; aka, e pepehiia kela kanaka keia kanaka no kona hewa iho.
7 Yena wasetshaya amaEdoma azinkulungwane ezilitshumi esihotsheni setshwayi, wathumba iSela ngempi, wabiza ibizo layo ngokuthi yiJokhitheyeli, kuze kube lamuhla.
Pepehi aku la ia i ka Edoma ma ke awawa paakai i na tausani he umi, a hoopio aku la i Sela ma ke kaua aua, a kapa aku la i kona inoa, o Ioketeela, a hiki i keia la.
8 Khona uAmaziya wathuma izithunywa kuJehowashi indodana kaJehowahazi indodana kaJehu, inkosi yakoIsrayeli, esithi: Woza sikhangelane ubuso ngobuso.
Ia manawa hoouna aku la o Amazia i na elele io Iehoasa, ke keiki a Iehoahaza, ke keiki a Iehu ke alii o ka Iseraela, i aku la, Ea, e ike na maka o kaua.
9 UJehowashi inkosi yakoIsrayeli wasethumela kuAmaziya inkosi yakoJuda esithi: Ukhula oluhlabayo oluseLebhanoni lwathumela emsedarini oseLebhanoni lusithi: Nika indodakazi yakho endodaneni yami ibe ngumkayo; kwasekusedlula isilo seganga esiseLebhanoni, salugxoba ukhula oluhlabayo.
A hoouna mai la o Iehoasa ke alii o ka Iseraela io Amazia la, ke alii o ka Iuda, i mai la, Hoouna aku la ka puakala ma Lebanona i ka laau kedara ma Lebanona, i aku la, E haawi mai oe i kau kaikamahine i wahine na ka'u keikikane! a hele ae la ka holoholona o Lebanona, a hehi iho la i ka puakala.
10 Uyitshayile lokuyitshaya iEdoma, inhliziyo yakho isikuphakamisile; dumiseka, uhlale endlini yakho; ngoba kungani uzivusela ububi ukuze uwe wena loJuda kanye lawe?
Ua pepehi no nae oe i ka Edoma, a ua hookiekie kou naau ia oe iho; e hoonani oe ilaila, a e noho ma kou hale; no keaha la oe e kaua pu me ka hewa, i haule iho ai oe, o oe, a me ka Iuda me oe?
11 Kodwa uAmaziya kezwanga. Ngakho uJehowashi inkosi yakoIsrayeli wenyuka, yena-ke loAmaziya inkosi yakoJuda bakhangelana ubuso ngobuso eBeti-Shemeshi eyakoJuda.
Aka, aole i hoolohe o Amazia: no ia mea, pii ae la o Iehoasa ke alii o ka Iseraela; a ike na maka o laua me Amazia, ke alii o ka Iuda ma Betesemesa, no ka Iuda.
12 UJuda wasetshaywa phambi kukaIsrayeli; basebebaleka, ngulowo lalowo waya ethenteni lakhe.
A pepehiia aku la o ka Iuda imua o ka Iseraela, holo lakou o kela kanaka keia kanaka i kona halelewa.
13 UJehowashi inkosi yakoIsrayeli wasembamba uAmaziya inkosi yakoJuda, indodana kaJehowashi indodana kaAhaziya, eBeti-Shemeshi; wafika eJerusalema, wadilizela phansi umduli weJerusalema, kusukela esangweni lakoEfrayimi kusiya esangweni lengonsi, ingalo ezingamakhulu amane.
A o Iehoasa ke alii o ka Iseraela, lawe pio aku la oia ia Amazia, i ke alii o ka Iuda, ke keiki a Iehoasa, ke keiki a Ahazia ma Betesemesa, a hele mai i Ierusalema, a hoohiolo i ka papohaku o Ierusalema, mai ka ipuka o Eperaima, a hiki i ka ipuka kihi, eha haneri hailima.
14 Wasethatha lonke igolide lesiliva, lezitsha zonke ezatholakala endlini kaJehova lezendlini zenotho zendlu yenkosi, kanye labayisibambiso, wasebuyela eSamariya.
A lawe aku la ia i ke gula a pau a me ke kala, a me na kiaha a pau i loaa ma ka hale o Iehova, a ma na waihona waiwai o ka hale o ke alii, a i na mea panihakahaka, a hoi aku la i Samaria.
15 Ezinye-ke zezindaba zikaJehowashi azenzayo, lamandla akhe, lokuthi walwa njani loAmaziya inkosi yakoJuda, kakubhalwanga yini egwalweni lwemilando yamakhosi akoIsrayeli?
A o na hana i koe a Iehoasa ana i hana'i, a me kona ikaika a me kona kana ana me Amazia ke alii o ka Iuda, aole anei i kakauia lakou iloko o ka buke oihanaalii a na'lii o ka Iseraela.
16 UJehowashi waselala laboyise, wangcwatshelwa eSamariya emakhosini akoIsrayeli. UJerobhowamu indodana yakhe wasesiba yinkosi esikhundleni sakhe.
A hiamoe iho la o Iehoasa me kona poe kupuna, a kanuia iho la ia ma Samaria me na'lii o ka Iseraela: a noho alii iho la o Ieroboama kana keiki ma kona wahi.
17 UAmaziya indodana kaJowashi, inkosi yakoJuda, wasephila iminyaka elitshumi lanhlanu emva kokufa kukaJehowashi indodana kaJehowahazi inkosi yakoIsrayeli.
A ola iho la o Amazia ke keiki a Ioasa ke alii o ka Iuda i na makahiki he umikumamalima, mahope iho o ka make ana o Iehoasa ke keiki a Iehoahaza, ke alii o ka Iseraela.
18 Ezinye-ke zezindaba zikaAmaziya, kazibhalwanga yini egwalweni lwemilando yamakhosi akoJuda?
A o na hana i koe a Amazia aole anei i kakauia lakou iloko o ka buke oihanaalii a na'lii o ka Iuda?
19 Basebemenzela ugobe eJerusalema, wabalekela eLakishi; kodwa bathuma bamlandela eLakishi, bambulalela khona.
A kipi aku la lakou ia ia ma Ierusalema, a holo aku la ia i Lakisa, a hoouna aku la lakou mahope ona i Lakisa; a pepehi aku la ia ia malaila.
20 Basebemthwala ngamabhiza, wangcwatshelwa eJerusalema kuboyise emzini kaDavida.
A lawe mai lakou ia ia maluna o na lio; a kanuia oia ma Ierusalema me kona poe kupuna ma ke kulanakauhale o Davida.
21 Bonke abantu bakoJuda basebethatha uAzariya, owayeleminyaka elitshumi lesithupha, bambeka waba yinkosi esikhundleni sikayise uAmaziya.
A lawe na kanaka a pau o ka Iuda ia Azaria, he umikumamaono kona mau makahiki, a hooalii aku la lakou ia ia i hope no Amazia kona makuakane.
22 Yena wakha iElathi, wayibuyisela koJuda emva kokulala kwenkosi laboyise.
A hana aku la ia i Elata, a hoihoi aku la ia wahi no ka Iuda mahope o ka hiamoe ana o ke alii me kona poe kupuna.
23 Ngomnyaka wetshumi lanhlanu kaAmaziya indodana kaJowashi inkosi yakoJuda uJerobhowamu indodana kaJowashi inkosi yakoIsrayeli waba yinkosi eSamariya; wabusa iminyaka engamatshumi amane lanye.
I ka makahiki umikumamalima o Amazia ke keiki a Ioasa, ke alii o ka Iuda, i lilo ai o Ieroboama, ke keiki a Ioasa ke alii o ka Iseraela, i alii ma Samaria, he kanahakumamakahi na makahiki o kona alii ana.
24 Wasesenza okubi emehlweni eNkosi; kasukanga ezonweni zonke zikaJerobhowamu indodana kaNebati owenza uIsrayeli one.
Hana ino aku la ia imua o Iehova: aole ia i haalele i na hewa a pau o Ieroboama ke keiki a Nebata, nana i hoolilo ka Iseraela i ka hewa.
25 Yena wabuyisela umngcele wakoIsrayeli kusukela ekungeneni kweHamathi kuze kufike elwandle lwamagceke, njengokwelizwi leNkosi, uNkulunkulu kaIsrayeli, eyalikhuluma ngesandla senceku yayo uJona indodana kaAmithayi umprofethi, owayevela eGathi-Heferi.
Hoihoi aku no ia i ka mokuna o ka Iseraela, mai ke komo ana i Hamata, a hiki i ke kai o ka papu, e like me ka olelo a Iehova ke Akua o ka Iseraela ana i olelo ai ma kana kauwa, ma Iona ke keiki a Ametai, ke kaula no Gatehepera.
26 Ngoba iNkosi yabona ukuhlupheka kukaIsrayeli, kwakubaba kakhulu, ngoba kwakungekho ovalelweyo, njalo engekho okhululekileyo, njalo kungelamsizi kaIsrayeli.
No ka mea, ua ike no o Iehova i ka mea kaumaha o ka Iseraela, he awaawa nui: no ka mea, aohe mea i paa, aohe mea i paa ole, aohe mea nana e kokua ka Iseraela.
27 INkosi yayingatshongo-ke ukuthi izalesula ibizo likaIsrayeli ngaphansi kwamazulu; kodwa yabasindisa ngesandla sikaJerobhowamu indodana kaJowashi.
Aole o Iehova i olelo mai e hookae aku ia i ka inoa o ka Iseraela malalo ae o ka lani; aku, hoopakele no ia ia lakou ma ka lima o Ieroboama ke keiki a Ioasa.
28 Ezinye-ke zezindaba zikaJerobhowamu, lakho konke akwenzayo, lamandla akhe, ukuthi walwa njani, lokuthi wayibuyisela njani koIsrayeli iDamaseko leHamathi, engeyeJuda, kakubhalwanga yini egwalweni lwemilando yamakhosi akoIsrayeli?
A o na hana i koe a Ieroboama, a o na mea a pau ana i hana'i, a o kona ikaika ana i kaua aku ai, a me kona loaa ana o Damaseko, a me Hamata no ka Iuda, i ka Iseraela, aole auei i kakauia lakou iloko o ka buke oihanaalii a na'lii o ka Iseraela?
29 UJerobhowamu waselala laboyise, emakhosini akoIsrayeli. UZekhariya indodana yakhe wasesiba yinkosi esikhundleni sakhe.
A hiamoe iho la o Ieroboama me kona poe kupuna, me na'lii o ka Iseraela; a noho alii iho la o Zakaria kana keiki ma kona hakahaka.
