1 Ngomnyaka wetshumi lesikhombisa kaPheka indodana kaRemaliya uAhazi indodana kaJothamu inkosi yakoJuda waba yinkosi.
Ehaz nwa Jotam, malitere ịbụ eze Juda nʼafọ nke iri na asaa nke ọchịchị eze Peka nwa Remalaya eze Izrel.
2 UAhazi wayeleminyaka engamatshumi amabili lapho esiba yinkosi; wabusa iminyaka elitshumi lesithupha eJerusalema. Kenzanga-ke okulungileyo emehlweni eNkosi uNkulunkulu wakhe, njengoDavida uyise.
Ehaz gbara iri afọ abụọ mgbe ọ malitere ịbụ eze. Afọ iri na isii ka ọ chịkwara nʼime Jerusalem, ma o meghị ihe ziri ezi nʼanya Onyenwe anyị bụ Chineke ya, dịka nna ya Devid mere.
3 Kodwa wahamba ngendlela yamakhosi akoIsrayeli, yebo, futhi wenza indodana yakhe idabule emlilweni, njengezinengiso zezizwe iNkosi eyazixotsha elifeni phambi kwabantwana bakoIsrayeli.
Ọ gbasoro ụzọ niile nke ndị eze Izrel, ọbụladị i ji nwa ya nwoke chụọ aja nʼọkụ. Ọ gbasoro omenaala niile rụrụ arụ nke ndị mba ọzọ, ndị ahụ Onyenwe anyị chụpụrụ site nʼihu ndị Izrel.
4 Wanikela imihlatshelo watshisa impepha endaweni eziphakemeyo laphezu kwamaqaqa langaphansi kwaso sonke isihlahla esiluhlaza.
Ọ chụrụ aja surekwaa ihe nsure ọkụ aja na-esi isi ụtọ nʼebe niile dị elu, nʼelu ugwu niile, na nʼokpuru osisi ndụ ọbụla.
5 Khona uRezini inkosi yeSiriya loPheka indodana kaRemaliya, inkosi yakoIsrayeli, benyukela eJerusalema ukulwa, bamvimbezela uAhazi kodwa kababanga lakho ukunqoba.
Mgbe ahụ, Rezin eze Aram na Peka nwa Remalaya, eze Izrel rigooro ịga buso Jerusalem agha, gbakwaa Ehaz gburugburu. Ma ha emerighị ya nʼagha.
6 Ngalesosikhathi uRezini inkosi yeSiriya wabuyisela iElathi eSiriya, waxotsha amaJuda eElathi; amaSiriya asesiza eElathi ahlala khona kuze kube lamuhla.
Nʼoge ahụ, Rezin eze Aram dọtaghachiri obodo Elat nye onwe ya, site na ị chụpụ ndị Juda bi nʼElat. Ndị Edọm bara nʼobodo Elat, ha bikwa nʼebe ahụ ruo taa.
7 UAhazi wasethuma izithunywa kuTigilathi Pileseri inkosi yeAsiriya esithi: Ngiyinceku yakho lendodana yakho; yenyuka ungisindise esandleni senkosi yeSiriya lesandleni senkosi yakoIsrayeli abangivukelayo.
Ehaz zigara ndị ozi ka ha gaa zie Tiglat-Pilesa, eze ndị Asịrịa ozi, sị ya, “Abụ m ohu gị, onyenwe m ka ị bụ. Bịa napụta m site nʼaka eze ndị Aram na eze ndị Izrel, ndị na-ebuso m agha.”
8 UAhazi wasethatha isiliva legolide okwakutholwa endlini kaJehova lenothweni yendlu yenkosi, wathumela isipho enkosini yeAsiriya.
Ehaz weere ọlaedo na ọlaọcha ahụtara nʼime ụlọnsọ ukwu Onyenwe anyị, na nke dị nʼakụ niile dị nʼụlọeze zigara eze Asịrịa dịka onyinye.
9 Inkosi yeAsiriya yasimlalela, ngoba inkosi yeAsiriya yenyuka imelene leDamaseko yayithumba, yabathumbela eKiri abantu bayo, yabulala uRezini.
Eze ndị Asịrịa ṅara ya ntị site nʼibuso obodo Damaskọs agha na imeri ya. O gburu Rezin, bulaa mmadụ niile bi nʼime ya nʼike ka ha gaa biri nʼobodo Kia.
10 Inkosi uAhazi yasisiya eDamaseko ukuhlangana loTigilathi Pileseri inkosi yeAsiriya, yabona ilathi elaliseDamaseko. Inkosi uAhazi yasithumela kuUriya umpristi isimo selathi lomfanekiso walo njengokwenziwa kwalo konke.
Mgbe eze Ehaz gara Damaskọs izute Tiglat-Pilesa bụ eze Asịrịa. Ọ hụrụ otu ebe nchụaja nke dị na Damaskọs. O zigaara Ụraya onye nchụaja oyiyi ebe ịchụ aja ahụ. O dekwara ihe gbasara ya nʼakwụkwọ, nke ga-akọwa otu e si ewu ya.
11 U-Uriya umpristi wasesakha ilathi njengakho konke uAhazi akuthumela kuvela eDamaseko; uUriya umpristi wenza njalo, yaze yafika inkosi uAhazi ivela eDamaseko.
Ya mere, Ụraya onye nchụaja, wuru ebe ịchụ aja nke dị ka nke ahụ Ehaz hụrụ na Damaskọs. O wuchara ya tupu eze alọta.
12 Inkosi isibuyile eDamaseko inkosi yalibona ilathi. Inkosi yasondela elathini, yanikela phezu kwalo.
Mgbe eze si Damaskọs lọta na Juda, ọ hụrụ ebe ịchụ aja ahụ, bịaruo ya nso, doo onyinye ịchụ aja ya nʼelu ya.
13 Yasitshisa umnikelo wayo wokutshiswa lomnikelo wayo wokudla, yathela umnikelo wayo wokunathwayo, yafafaza igazi leminikelo yokuthula eyayilayo phezu kwelathi.
Ọ chụrụ aja nsure ọkụ, na aja ihe nsure ọkụ na-esi isi ụtọ, na aja onyinye mkpụrụ ọka. Ọ wụkwasịrị onyinye ihe ọṅụṅụ nʼelu ebe ịchụ aja ahụ, fesakwa ọbara aja udo ya niile nʼelu ebe ịchụ aja ahụ.
14 Kodwa ilathi lethusi elaliphambi kweNkosi yaliletha lisuka phambi kwendlu, lisuka phakathi kwelathi lendlu yeNkosi, yalifaka ehlangothini lwenyakatho lwelathi.
O wepụrụ ebe ịchụ aja bronz nke dị nʼihu Onyenwe anyị, o sitere nʼebe ọ dị nʼihu ụlọnsọ ahụ, nʼetiti ebe ịchụ aja ọhụrụ na ụlọnsọ ukwu Onyenwe anyị, bute ya nʼakụkụ ugwu nke ebe ịchụ aja ọhụrụ ya.
15 Inkosi uAhazi yasimlaya uUriya umpristi isithi: Phezu kwelathi elikhulu tshisa umnikelo wokutshiswa wekuseni, lomnikelo wokudla wantambama, lomnikelo wokutshiswa wenkosi, lomnikelo wayo wokudla, lomnikelo wokutshiswa wabo bonke abantu belizwe, lomnikelo wabo wokudla, leminikelo yabo yokunathwayo; ufafaze phezu kwalo lonke igazi lomnikelo wokutshiswa lalo lonke igazi lomhlatshelo. Kodwa ilathi lethusi lizakuba ngelami ukubuza ngalo.
Eze Ehaz nyere Ụraya, bụ onyeisi nchụaja iwu, sị, “Ọ bụ nʼelu ebe ịchụ aja ọhụrụ a ka ị ga na-esure aja nsure ọkụ ụtụtụ niile, na onyinye mkpụrụ ọka nke uhuruchi niile, na aja nsure ọkụ eze, na onyinye mkpụrụ ọka nke eze, na aja na onyinye nke ndị niile nʼala a, ya na onyinye mkpụrụ ọka ha niile na onyinye ihe ọṅụṅụ ha niile. Fekwasị ọbara niile e ji chụọ aja nsure ọkụ na aja ndị ọzọ nʼelu ebe ịchụ aja ahụ. Ma ebe ịchụ aja ọla ahụ ga-adịrị m iji jụta ase.”
16 U-Uriya umpristi wasesenza njengakho konke inkosi uAhazi eyayikulayile.
Ụraya onye nchụaja mere ihe niile dịka eze Ehaz nyere ya nʼiwu.
17 Inkosi uAhazi yasiquma imiphetho yezisekelo, yasusa inditshi yokugezela kuzo, yethula ulwandle phezu kwenkabi zethusi ezazingaphansi kwalo, yalubeka phezu kokugandelwe ngamatshe.
Eze bụ Ehaz wepụrụ ihe njikọ niile jikọrọ ihe ndọkwasị ahụ niile a na-ebugharị ebugharị. O wepụrụ efere ukwu ịdọba mmiri a dọkwasịrị nʼelu ehi ọla ahụ dị nʼokpuru ya, ma dọkwasị ya nʼelu nkume.
18 Lokwembesiweyo kwesabatha ababekwakhe endlini, lentuba yenkosi phandle, yakususa endlini yeNkosi, ngenxa yenkosi yeAsiriya.
Nʼihi imekwa ka obi tọọ eze Asịrịa ụtọ, o wepụrụ ụzọ a na-esite maka ụbọchị izuike nke e wuru nʼime ụlọnsọ, na ụzọ mbata eze si abanye nʼụlọnsọ ukwu Onyenwe anyị.
19 Ezinye-ke zezindaba zikaAhazi azenzayo, kazibhalwanga yini egwalweni lwemilando yamakhosi akoJuda?
Ma banyere ihe ndị ọzọ niile mere nʼoge ọchịchị Ehaz, na ihe ndị o mere, ọ bụ na e deghị ha nʼakwụkwọ akụkọ ihe mere nʼoge ndị eze Juda?
20 UAhazi waselala laboyise, wangcwatshelwa kuboyise emzini kaDavida. UHezekhiya indodana yakhe wasesiba yinkosi esikhundleni sakhe.
Ehaz soro nna nna ya ha dina nʼọnwụ, e lie ya nʼebe e liri ha nʼobodo Devid. Hezekaya nwa ya ghọrọ eze nʼọnọdụ ya.
