1 Ngomnyaka wamatshumi amabili lesikhombisa kaJerobhowamu, inkosi yakoIsrayeli, uAzariya indodana kaAmaziya, inkosi yakoJuda, waba yinkosi.
Na rĩrĩ, mwaka-inĩ wa mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ na mũgwanja wa ũthamaki wa Jeroboamu mũthamaki wa Isiraeli, Azaria mũrũ wa Amazia mũthamaki wa Juda, akĩambĩrĩria gũthamaka.
2 Wayeleminyaka elitshumi lesithupha lapho esiba yinkosi; wasebusa iminyaka engamatshumi amahlanu lambili eJerusalema. Lebizo likanina lalinguJekoliya weJerusalema.
Nake aarĩ na ũkũrũ wa mĩaka ikũmi na ĩtandatũ rĩrĩa aatuĩkire mũthamaki, nake agĩthamaka arĩ Jerusalemu mĩaka mĩrongo ĩtano na ĩĩrĩ. Nyina eetagwo Jekolia, na oimĩte Jerusalemu.
3 Wasesenza okulungileyo emehlweni eNkosi njengakho konke uAmaziya uyise akwenzayo.
Nake nĩekire maũndũ marĩa maarĩ magĩrĩru maitho-inĩ ma Jehova, o ta ũrĩa ithe Amazia eekĩte.
4 Kodwa indawo eziphakemeyo kazisuswanga; abantu babelokhu benikela imihlatshelo betshisa impepha endaweni eziphakemeyo.
No rĩrĩ, kũndũ kũrĩa gũtũũgĩru gũtieheririo; andũ maathiire o na mbere kũrutĩra magongona o na gũcinĩra ũbumba kuo.
5 UJehova wayitshaya inkosi, yasisiba ngumlephero kwaze kwaba lusuku lokufa kwayo. Yahlala endlini eyehlukanisiweyo. UJothamu indodana yenkosi wasephatha indlu, esahlulela abantu belizwe.
Jehova nĩahũũrire mũthamaki na mangũ o nginya mũthenya ũrĩa aakuire, na aatũũrire nyũmba arĩ wiki. Jothamu mũrũ wa mũthamaki akĩrũgamĩrĩra nyũmba ya ũthamaki, na agaathaga andũ a bũrũri ũcio.
6 Ezinye-ke zezindaba zikaAzariya, lakho konke akwenzayo, kakubhalwanga yini egwalweni lwemilando yamakhosi akoJuda?
Ha ũhoro wa maũndũ marĩa mangĩ makoniĩ wathani wa Azaria, na ũrĩa wothe eekire, githĩ matiandĩkĩtwo ibuku-inĩ rĩa mahinda ma athamaki a Juda?
7 UAzariya waselala laboyise, bamngcwaba kuboyise emzini kaDavida. UJothamu indodana yakhe wasesiba yinkosi esikhundleni sakhe.
Azaria akĩhurũka hamwe na maithe make, na agĩthikwo hakuhĩ nao itũũra-inĩ inene rĩa Daudi. Nake mũriũ Jothamu agĩtuĩka mũthamaki ithenya rĩake.
8 Ngomnyaka wamatshumi amathathu lesificaminwembili kaAzariya inkosi yakoJuda uZekhariya indodana kaJerobhowamu wabusa phezu kukaIsrayeli eSamariya inyanga eziyisithupha.
Na rĩrĩ, mwaka-inĩ wa mĩrongo ĩtatũ na ĩnana wa Azaria mũthamaki wa Juda, Zekaria mũrũ wa Jeroboamu agĩtuĩka mũthamaki wa Isiraeli kũu Samaria, nake agĩthamaka mĩeri ĩtandatũ.
9 Wasesenza okubi emehlweni eNkosi njengokwenza kwaboyise; kasukanga ezonweni zikaJerobhowamu indodana kaNebati owenza uIsrayeli one.
Nake agĩĩka maũndũ mooru maitho-inĩ ma Jehova, o ta ũrĩa maithe make meekĩte. Ndaigana gũtiga mehia ma Jeroboamu mũrũ wa Nebati marĩa aatũmĩte Isiraeli mehie.
10 UShaluma indodana kaJabeshi wasemenzela ugobe, wamtshaya phambi kwabantu wambulala, wasebusa esikhundleni sakhe.
Shalumu mũrũ wa Jabeshi nĩaciirĩire gũũkĩrĩra Zekaria. Akĩmũtharĩkĩra mbere ya andũ, akĩmũũraga, nake agĩtuĩka mũthamaki ithenya rĩake.
11 Ezinye-ke zezindaba zikaZekhariya, khangela, zibhaliwe egwalweni lwemilando yamakhosi akoIsrayeli.
Maũndũ marĩa mangĩ makoniĩ wathani wa Zekaria, mandĩkĩtwo ibuku-inĩ rĩa mahinda ma athamaki a Isiraeli.
12 Leli yilizwi leNkosi eyalikhuluma kuJehu isithi: Amadodana akho azahlala esihlalweni sobukhosi sikaIsrayeli kuze kube sesizukulwaneni sesine. Kwaba njalo-ke.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio kiugo kĩa Jehova kĩrĩa kĩarĩirio Jehu nĩkĩahingire, kĩrĩa kĩoigĩte atĩrĩ: “Njiaro ciaku nĩigaikarĩra gĩtĩ kĩa ũnene wa Isiraeli nginya rũciaro rwa kana.”
13 UShaluma indodana kaJabeshi waba yinkosi ngomnyaka wamatshumi amathathu lesificamunwemunye kaUziya inkosi yakoJuda; wabusa inyanga egcweleyo eSamariya.
Na rĩrĩ, Shalumu mũrũ wa Jabeshi aatuĩkire mũthamaki mwaka-inĩ wa mĩrongo ĩtatũ na kenda wa ũthamaki wa Uzia mũthamaki wa Juda, nake agĩthamaka mweri ũmwe kũu Samaria.
14 Ngoba uMenahema indodana kaGadi wenyuka esuka eTiriza, weza eSamariya, wamtshaya uShaluma indodana kaJabeshi eSamariya wambulala; wabusa esikhundleni sakhe.
Menahemu mũrũ wa Gadi akiuma Tiriza, agĩthiĩ Samaria. Agĩtharĩkĩra Shalumu mũrũ wa Jabeshi kũu Samaria, akĩmũũraga, na agĩtuĩka mũthamaki ithenya rĩake.
15 Ezinye-ke zezindaba zikaShaluma, logobe lwakhe alwenzayo, khangela, kubhaliwe egwalweni lwemilando yamakhosi akoIsrayeli.
Maũndũ marĩa mangĩ makoniĩ wathani wa Shalumu, na ndundu ya gũũkanĩrĩra ĩrĩa aatongoretie, mandĩkĩtwo ibuku-inĩ rĩa mahinda ma athamaki a Isiraeli.
16 Khona uMenahema wasetshaya iThifisa, lakho konke okwakukiyo, lemingcele yayo kusukela eTiriza, ngoba bengamvulelanga. Ngakho wayitshaya; bonke abesifazana bayo abakhulelweyo wabaqhaqha.
Hĩndĩ ĩyo Menahemu, arutĩtie Tiriza agĩtharĩkĩra Tifisa, na akĩũraga mũndũ wothe warĩ itũũra, rĩu inene thĩinĩ o na arĩa maarĩ hakuhĩ narĩo, tondũ nĩmaregire kũhingũra ihingo ciao. Akĩhũũra Tifisa, na agĩtarũra nda cia andũ-a-nja arĩa maarĩ na nda.
17 Ngomnyaka wamatshumi amathathu lesificamunwemunye kaAzariya inkosi yakoJuda uMenahema indodana kaGadi waba yinkosi phezu kukaIsrayeli; wabusa iminyaka elitshumi eSamariya.
Mwaka-inĩ wa mĩrongo ĩtatũ na kenda wa Azaria mũthamaki wa Juda, Menahemu mũrũ wa Gadi agĩtuĩka mũthamaki wa Isiraeli, na agĩthamaka Samaria mĩaka ikũmi.
18 Wasesenza okubi emehlweni eNkosi; kasukanga ezonweni zikaJerobhowamu indodana kaNebati owenza uIsrayeli one, insuku zakhe zonke.
Nake agĩĩka maũndũ mooru maitho-inĩ ma Jehova. Hĩndĩ ya wathani wake wothe, ndaigana gũtigana na mehia ma Jeroboamu mũrũ wa Nebati, marĩa aatũmĩte Isiraeli meehie.
19 UPhuli inkosi yeAsiriya weza wamelana lelizwe; uMenahema wasenika uPhuli amathalenta esiliva ayinkulungwane ukuze isandla sakhe sibe laye ukuqinisa umbuso esandleni sakhe.
Hĩndĩ ĩyo Puli mũthamaki wa Ashuri agĩtharĩkĩra bũrũri ũcio, nake Menahemu akĩmũhe taranda ngiri ĩmwe cia betha nĩguo amũteithĩrĩrie kũrũmia ũthamaki wake wega.
20 UMenahema wasekhuphisa uIsrayeli imali, yabo bonke abantu abalamandla enothweni, ukupha inkosi yeAsiriya; amashekeli esiliva angamatshumi amahlanu kuleyo laleyondoda. Inkosi yeAsiriya yasibuyela, kayaze yahlala lapho elizweni.
Menahemu agĩĩtia mbeeca icio na hinya kuuma kũrĩ andũ a Isiraeli. Mũndũ o wothe gĩtonga aarĩ arute cekeri mĩrongo ĩtano cia betha, nĩguo iheo mũthamaki wa Ashuri. Nĩ ũndũ ũcio mũthamaki wa Ashuri akĩehera, na ndaikarire bũrũri ũcio rĩngĩ.
21 Ezinye-ke zezindaba zikaMenahema, lakho konke akwenzayo, kakubhalwanga yini egwalweni lwemilando yamakhosi akoIsrayeli?
Ha ũhoro wa maũndũ marĩa mangĩ makoniĩ wathani wa Menahemu, na ũrĩa eekire-rĩ, githĩ matiandĩkĩtwo ibuku-inĩ rĩa mahinda ma athamaki a Isiraeli?
22 UMenahema waselala laboyise; uPhekahiya indodana yakhe wasesiba yinkosi esikhundleni sakhe.
Menahemu akĩhurũka hamwe na maithe make. Nake mũriũ Pekaia agĩtuĩka mũthamaki ithenya rĩake.
23 Ngomnyaka wamatshumi amahlanu kaAzariya inkosi yakoJuda uPhekahiya indodana kaMenahema waba yinkosi phezu kukaIsrayeli eSamariya, wabusa iminyaka emibili.
Mwaka-inĩ wa mĩrongo ĩtano wa ũthamaki wa Azaria mũthamaki wa Juda, Pekaia mũrũ wa Menahemu agĩtuĩka mũthamaki wa Isiraeli kũu Samaria, nake agĩthamaka mĩaka ĩĩrĩ.
24 Wasesenza okubi emehlweni eNkosi; kasukanga ezonweni zikaJerobhowamu indodana kaNebati owenza uIsrayeli one.
Pekaia agĩĩka maũndũ mooru maitho-inĩ ma Jehova. Ndaigana gũtiga mehia ma Jeroboamu mũrũ wa Nebati marĩa aatũmĩte Isiraeli meehie.
25 Kodwa uPheka indodana kaRemaliya, induna yakhe, wamenzela ugobe wamtshaya eSamariya enqabeni yendlu yenkosi, kanye loArigobi loAriye, njalo kanye laye abantu abangamatshumi amahlanu bamaGileyadi. Wambulala, waba yinkosi esikhundleni sakhe.
Ũmwe wa anene ake, Peka mũrũ wa Remalia, agĩciirĩra ndundu ya kũmũũkĩrĩra. Arĩ na andũ mĩrongo ĩtano kuuma Gileadi, agĩthiĩ, akĩũraga Pekaia hamwe na Arigobu na Ariehi, kũu Samaria, kĩirigo-inĩ gĩa kwĩgitĩra kĩa nyũmba ya ũthamaki. Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, Peka akĩũraga Pekaia na agĩtuĩka mũthamaki ithenya rĩake.
26 Ezinye-ke zezindaba zikaPhekahiya, lakho konke akwenzayo, khangela, kubhaliwe egwalweni lwemilando yamakhosi akoIsrayeli.
Maũndũ marĩa mangĩ makoniĩ wathani wa Pekaia, na ũrĩa wothe eekire-rĩ, mandĩkĩtwo ibuku-inĩ rĩa mahinda ma athamaki a Isiraeli.
27 Ngomnyaka wamatshumi amahlanu lambili kaAzariya inkosi yakoJuda uPheka indodana kaRemaliya waba yinkosi phezu kukaIsrayeli eSamariya; wabusa iminyaka engamatshumi amabili.

31 Ezinye-ke zezindaba zikaPheka, lakho konke akwenzayo, khangela, kubhaliwe egwalweni lwemilando yamakhosi akoIsrayeli.
Ha ũhoro wa maũndũ marĩa mangĩ makoniĩ wathani wa Peka, na ũrĩa wothe eekire-rĩ, githĩ matiandĩkĩtwo ibuku-inĩ rĩa mahinda ma athamaki a Isiraeli?
32 Ngomnyaka wesibili kaPheka indodana kaRemaliya inkosi yakoIsrayeli uJothamu indodana kaUziya inkosi yakoJuda waba yinkosi.
Na rĩrĩ, mwaka-inĩ wa keerĩ wa ũthamaki wa Peka mũrũ wa Remalia mũthamaki wa Isiraeli, Jothamu mũrũ wa Uzia mũthamaki wa Juda akĩambĩrĩria gũthamaka.
