2 Amakhosi 9
1 UElisha umprofethi wasebiza omunye wamadodana abaprofethi wathi kuye: Bopha ukhalo lwakho, uthathe lumfuma wamafutha esandleni sakho, uye eRamothi-Gileyadi.
Na odiyifoɔ Elisa afrɛ adiyifoɔ no mu baako afiri adiyifoɔ kuo no mu. Ɔka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Siesie wo ho, na kɔ Ramot-Gilead. Fa saa toa a ngo wɔ mu yi ka wo ho kɔ.
2 Nxa ufika khona udinge lapho uJehu indodana kaJehoshafathi indodana kaNimshi, ungene, umsukumise phakathi kwabafowabo, umngenise ekamelweni elingaphakathi.
Hwehwɛ Yehosafat babarima Yehu a ɔyɛ Nimsi nana no. Frɛ no firi ne nnamfo mu, na fa no kɔ piam,
3 Ubusuthatha umfuma wamafutha, uwathele ekhanda lakhe uthi: Itsho njalo iNkosi: Ngikugcobile ube yinkosi phezu kukaIsrayeli. Ubusuvula umnyango, ubaleke, ungaphuzi.
na hwie ngo no gu ne tirim. Ka kyerɛ no sɛ, ‘Sɛdeɛ Awurade seɛ nie: Meresra wo ngo, ama woabɛdi Israel so ɔhene.’ Afei, bue ɛpono no na dwane, gye wo kra nkwa!”
4 Lahamba-ke ijaha lelo, ijaha umprofethi, laya eRamothi-Gileyadi.
Enti, odiyifoɔ kumaa no yɛɛ deɛ wɔka kyerɛɛ no no, na ɔkɔɔ Ramot-Gilead.
5 Ekufikeni kwalo, khangela, induna zebutho zazihlezi, lathi: Ngilombiko kuwe, nduna. UJehu wasesithi: Kubani phakathi kwethu sonke? Laselisithi: Kuwe, nduna.
Ɔduruu hɔ no, ɔhunuu Yehu sɛ ɔne asraafoɔ mpanimfoɔ bi reyɛ nhyiamu. Ɔkaa sɛ, “Ɔsahene, mewɔ nkra bi de ma wo.” Yehu bisaa sɛ, “Yɛn mu hwan?” Ɔbuaa sɛ, “Wo a woyɛ ɔsahene no.”
6 Wasesukuma, wangena endlini; laselithela amafutha ekhanda lakhe, lathi kuye: Itsho njalo iNkosi, uNkulunkulu kaIsrayeli: Ngikugcobile ukuthi ube yinkosi phezu kwabantu beNkosi, phezu kukaIsrayeli.
Enti, Yehu gyaa wɔn a aka no hɔ, kɔɔ efie. Na odiyifoɔ kumaa no hwiee ngo no guu Yehu tirim, kaa sɛ, “Sɛdeɛ Awurade, Israel Onyankopɔn, seɛ nie: Mesra wo ngo sɛ, di Awurade nkurɔfoɔ Israelfoɔ so ɔhene.
7 Njalo uzatshaya indlu kaAhabi inkosi yakho, ukuze ngiphindisele igazi lenceku zami abaprofethi, legazi lazo zonke inceku zeNkosi, esandleni sikaJezebeli.
Ɛsɛ sɛ wosɛe Ahab, wo wura, no fie. Saa ɛkwan no so na mɛfa atua mʼadiyifoɔ a wɔkunkumm wɔn ne Awurade asomfoɔ no nyinaa a Isebel kunkumm wɔn no so ka.
8 Yonke-ke indlu kaAhabi izabhubha; njalo ngizaquma asuke kuAhabi ochamela emdulini, lovalelweyo lokhululekileyo koIsrayeli.
Ɛsɛ sɛ wɔpepa Ahab fiefoɔ nyinaa firi hɔ—ɔbarima biara, ɔsomfoɔ ne deɛ ɔde ne ho nyinaa a wɔwɔ Israel.
9 Njalo ngizakwenza indlu kaAhabi njengendlu kaJerobhowamu indodana kaNebati lanjengendlu kaBahasha indodana kaAhiya.
Mɛsɛe Ahab fie, sɛdeɛ mesɛee Nebat babarima Yeroboam ne Ahiya babarima Baasa afie no.
10 Lezinja zizakudla uJezebeli esabelweni seJizereyeli, njalo kakuyikuba lomngcwabayo. Laselivula umnyango, labaleka.
Na nkraman bɛwe Isebel ɛnam wɔ Yesreel asase so, na obiara rensie no.” Afei, odiyifoɔ kumaa no buee ɛpono no, tuu mmirika dwaneeɛ.
11 Kwathi uJehu esephumele encekwini zenkosi yakhe, omunye wathi kuye: Kulungile yini? Luzeleni loluhlanya kuwe? Wasesithi kuzo: Liyamazi lumuntu lenkulumo yakhe.
Yehu sane kɔɔ ne nkurɔfoɔ mpanimfoɔ no nkyɛn. Wɔn mu baako bisaa no sɛ, “Ɛdeɛn na damfo a ne ti asɛe no rehwehwɛ? Biribiara yɛ anaa?” Yehu buaa sɛ, “Wo ara wonim, sɛdeɛ ɔbarima no keka ne nsɛm fa.”
12 Zasezisithi: Manga! Sitshele khathesi. Wasesithi: Ukhulume ukuthi lokuthi kimi esithi: Itsho njalo iNkosi: Ngikugcobile ube yinkosi phezu kukaIsrayeli.
Wɔn nyinaa kaa sɛ, “Woboa. Ka nokorɛ.” Enti, Yehu kaa sɛ, odiyifoɔ no ayi akyerɛ no sɛ Awurade asra no ngo sɛ ɔmmɛdi Israel so ɔhene.
13 Zaseziphangisa, zathatha, ngulowo lalowo isembatho sakhe, zazibeka ngaphansi kwakhe engqongeni yezikhwelo, zavuthela uphondo, zathi: UJehu uyinkosi!
Wɔde wɔn ntadeɛ sesɛɛ ntwedeɛ no so ntɛm ara, hyɛnee totorobɛnto, teateaam sɛ, “Yehu yɛ ɔhene.”
14 Ngokunjalo uJehu indodana kaJehoshafathi indodana kaNimshi wamenzela ugobe uJoramu. (UJoramu wagcina-ke iRamothi-Gileyadi, yena loIsrayeli wonke, ngenxa kaHazayeli inkosi yeSiriya;
Enti, Yehosafat babarima Yehu a ɔyɛ Nimsi nana pam ɔhene Yoram tiri so. Afei, na Yoram de ne ho akɔbɔ akodɔm wɔ Ramot-Gilead a na wɔgyina de tia Aramhene Hasael akodɔm.
15 kodwa uJehoramu inkosi wayesebuyelele ukwelatshwa eJizereyeli ngamanxeba amaSiriya ayemtshaye wona ekulweni kwakhe loHazayeli inkosi yeSiriya.) UJehu wasesithi: Aluba kuyintando yenu, kakungaphumi ophunyukileyo emzini ukuyabika lokhu eJizereyeli.
Nanso, na wɔapira Yoram wɔ ɔko no mu, ama wasane aba Yesreel sɛ ɔrebɛsa ne ho yadeɛ. Enti, Yehu ka kyerɛɛ mmarima a wɔka ne ho no sɛ, “Esiane sɛ mopɛ sɛ medi ɔhene no enti, mma obiara nnwane nkɔ Yesreel nkɔka deɛ yɛayɛ wɔ hɔ.”
16 UJehu wasekhwela inqola, waya eJizereyeli, ngoba uJoramu wayelele khona, loAhaziya inkosi yakoJuda wayehle ukuthi abone uJoramu.
Na Yehu kɔtenaa teaseɛnam mu, kɔɔ Yesreel kɔhwehwɛɛ ɔhene Yoram a na wapira da hɔ no. Na Yudahene Ahasia nso wɔ hɔ bi.
17 Umlindi wayemi-ke emphotshongweni eJizereyeli, wabona ixuku likaJehu, yena esiza, wathi: Ngibona ixuku. UJehoramu wathi: Thatha umgadi webhiza umthume ukubahlangabeza, athi: Yikuthula yini?
Ɔwɛmfoɔ a na ɔwɔ Yesreel abantenten so no hunuu Yehu ne ne nkurɔfoɔ sɛ wɔreba enti, ɔteaam guu Yoram so sɛ, “Mehunu sɛ akodɔm reba. Soma ɔpɔnkɔkafoɔ bi, na ɔnkɔhwɛ sɛ wɔreba no asomdwoeɛ so anaa.” Ɔhene Yoram nso teaam.
18 Wasehamba umgadi webhiza ukumhlangabeza, wathi: Itsho njalo inkosi: Yikuthula yini? UJehu wasesithi: Ulani lokuthula? Phendukela ngemva kwami. Umlindi wasebika esithi: Isithunywa sesifikile kibo, kodwa kasiphenduki.
Enti, ɔpɔnkɔkafoɔ no kɔhyiaa Yehu bisaa no sɛ, “Ɔhene pɛ sɛ ɔhunu sɛ moreba no asomdwoeɛ so anaa.” Yehu buaa sɛ, “Ɛdeɛn na wonim fa asomdwoeɛ ho? Ma mensene!” Ɔwɛmfoɔ no frɛɛ ɔhene sɛ, “Ɔpɔnkɔkafoɔ no ahyia wɔn, nanso ɔmma.”
19 Yasithuma umgadi webhiza wesibili, wafika kibo wathi: Itsho njalo inkosi: Yikuthula yini? UJehu wasesithi: Ulani lokuthula? Phendukela ngemva kwami.
Enti, ɔhene no somaa ɔpɔnkɔkafoɔ a ɔtɔ so mmienu. Ɔkɔduruu wɔn nkyɛn bisaa sɛ, “Ɔhene pɛ sɛ ɔhunu sɛ moreba no asomdwoeɛ so anaa.” Bio, Yehu bisaa sɛ, “Ɛdeɛn na wonim fa asomdwoeɛ ho? Di mʼakyi!”
20 Umlindi wasebika wathi: Usefikile kibo, kodwa kaphenduki. Lokutshayela kufanana lokutshayela kukaJehu indodana kaNimshi, ngoba utshayela okohlanya.
Ɔwɛmfoɔ no teaam sɛ, “Ɔpɔnkɔkafoɔ no ahyia wɔn, nanso ɔno nso mma. Ɛbɛyɛ Nimsi babarima Yehu a ɔka ɔpɔnkɔ mmirikatɛntɛ so no.”
21 UJehoramu wasesithi: Bophelani. Basebebophela inqola yakhe. UJehoramu inkosi yakoIsrayeli loAhaziya inkosi yakoJuda basebephuma, ngulowo lalowo enqoleni yakhe, baphuma ukuhlangabeza uJehu, bamthola esiqintini sikaNabothi umJizereyeli.
Ɔhene Yoram hyɛɛ sɛ, “Ntɛm, monyɛ me teaseɛnam no krado mma me.” Na Israelhene Yoram ne Yudahene Ahasia tenatenaa wɔn nteaseɛnam mu kɔhyiaa Yehu. Wɔhyiaa no wɔ asase a na ɛyɛ Nabot, Yesreelni dea no so.
22 Kwasekusithi uJehoramu ebona uJehu wathi: Yikuthula yini, Jehu? Wasesithi: Ukuthula bani, selokhu ukuwula kukaJezebeli unyoko lokuthakatha kwakhe kukunengi kangaka?
Ɔhene Yoram bisaa sɛ, “Wobaa no asomdwoeɛ so anaa, Yehu?” Yehu buaa sɛ, “Mpɛn dodoɔ a wo maame Isebel abosom ne ne bayie atwa yɛn ho ahyia yi, ɛbɛyɛ dɛn na maba no asomdwoeɛ so?”
23 UJehoramu wasephendula izandla zakhe wabaleka, wathi kuAhaziya: Yinkohliso, Ahaziya!
Ɛnna ɔhene Yoram twee ne teaseɛnam pɔnkɔ no ahoma, de danee ɔpɔnkɔ no ani, dwaneeɛ a ɔreteateam sɛ, “Ɔmammɔfoɔ Ahasia!”
24 UJehu wasedonsisisa idandili, watshaya uJehoramu phakathi kweziphanga zakhe, lomtshoko waphuma enhliziyweni yakhe, wasekhothama enqoleni yakhe.
Na Yehu twee nʼagyan to wɔɔ Yoram mmati ntam. Agyan no hwiree nʼakoma mu, ma ɔbu hwee ne teaseɛnam no mu, wuiɛ.
25 Wasesithi kuBidikari induna yakhe: Mphakamise, umphosele esiqintini sensimu kaNabothi umJizereyeli; ngoba khumbula mina lawe sigade sobabili ngemva kukaAhabi uyise, iNkosi yamethesa lumthwalo:
Yehu ka kyerɛɛ ne kunini Bidkar sɛ, “To no twene Nabot, Yesreelni no asase no so. Wokae ɛberɛ a na yɛtete nteaseɛnam mu di nʼagya Ahab akyi no? Awurade kaa sɛ,
26 Ngibonile isibili izolo igazi likaNabothi legazi lamadodana akhe, itsho iNkosi, ngizaphindisela kuwe kulesisiqinti, itsho iNkosi. Ngakho-ke mphakamise umphosele kulesisiqinti, njengokwelizwi leNkosi.
‘Meka ntam di nse sɛ, mɛtua no so ka wɔ Nabot agyapadeɛ yi mu. Sɛ ɔkum Nabot ne ne mmammarima nnora a mehunuu no enti, mɛtua no ka. Enti, to no twene wɔ Nabot asase yi so.’”
27 UAhaziya inkosi yakoJuda esebonile lokhu wabaleka, ngendlela yendlu yesivande. UJehu wasexotshana laye, wathi: Mtshayeni laye enqoleni, emqansweni weGuri elingaseIbileyamu. Wasebalekela eMegido, wafela khona.
Ɛberɛ a Yudahene Ahasia hunuu asɛm a asi no, ɔdwane kɔɔ Bet-Hagan. Yehu taa no teateaam sɛ, “Monkum ɔno nso bi.” Enti, wɔtoo Ahasia agyan wɔ ne teaseɛnam mu wɔ Gur aforoeɛ a ɛbɛn Yibleam. Ɔtumi kɔeɛ ara kɔduruu Megido, na ɔwuu wɔ hɔ.
28 Inceku zakhe zasezimthwala zamusa eJerusalema, zamngcwaba engcwabeni lakhe kuboyise emzini kaDavida.
Ne mpanimfoɔ de no too teaseɛnam mu, kɔɔ Yerusalem, kɔsiee no ne mpanimfoɔ ho wɔ Dawid kurom.
29 Ngomnyaka wetshumi lanye kaJoramu indodana kaAhabi, uAhaziya waba yinkosi phezu kukaJuda.
Na Ahasia dii adeɛ wɔ Yuda no, na Israelhene Yoram nso adi adeɛ mfeɛ dubaako.
30 UJehu esefikile eJizereyeli, uJezebeli wakuzwa. Wasecomba amehlo akhe, wacecisa ikhanda lakhe, walunguza ngewindi.
Ɛberɛ a ɔhemmaa Isebel tee sɛ Yehu aba Yesreel no, ɔkekaa nʼanintɔn, yɛɛ ne ti fɛfɛɛfɛ, tɛɛ mpomma mu.
31 Lapho-ke uJehu engena esangweni, wasesithi: Yikuthula yini, Zimri, mbulali wenkosi yakho?
Ɛberɛ a Yehu wuraa ahemfie ɛpono no mu no, ɔhemmaa no teaam guu ne so sɛ, “Owudifoɔ, wobaa no asomdwoeɛ so anaa? Wote sɛ Simri a ɔkumm ne wura no.”
32 Wasephakamisela ubuso bakhe ewindini, wathi: Ngubani ongakimi? Ngubani? Kwasekulunguza kuye abathenwa ababili, abathathu.
Yehu pagyaa nʼani hunuu no wɔ mpomma no mu teaam sɛ, “Hwan na ɔwɔ mʼafa!” Na apiafoɔ baanu anaa baasa hwɛɛ no.
33 Wasesithi: Mphoseleni phansi. Basebemphosela phansi; lelinye legazi lakhe lachaphakela emdulini lemabhizeni; wasemnyathelela phansi.
Yehu teaam sɛ, “Monto no ntwene fam.” Enti, wɔtoo no firii mpomma no mu, maa ne mogya bi bɔ petee ɔfasuo no ne nʼapɔnkɔ ho. Na Yehu maa nʼapɔnkɔ tiatiaa nʼamu no so.
34 Wasengena wadla wanatha, wathi: Ake libone lo umqalekiswakazi limngcwabe, ngoba uyindodakazi yenkosi.
Na Yehu kɔɔ ahemfie hɔ kɔdidi, nomeeɛ. Akyire yi, ɔkaa sɛ, “Monkɔ nkɔsie ɔbaa a wɔadome no yi, ɛfiri sɛ, ɔyɛ ɔhene babaa.”
35 Basebesiyamngcwaba, kodwa kabaficanga lutho olwakhe ngaphandle kokhakhayi lenyawo lempama zezandla.
Nanso, wɔkɔɔ sɛ wɔrekɔsie no no, ne tikwankoraa, ne nan ne ne nsa nko ara na wɔhunuiɛ.
36 Ngakho babuyela bamtshela; wasesithi: Leli yilizwi leNkosi eyalikhuluma ngesandla senceku yayo uElija umTishibi lisithi: Esiqintini seJizereyeli izinja zizakudla inyama kaJezebeli;
Ɛberɛ a wɔbɛbɔɔ Yehu amaneɛ no, ɔkaa sɛ, “Yei hyɛ asɛm a Awurade nam ne ɔsomfoɔ Tisbini Elia so kaeɛ no ma sɛ, ‘Asase tam bi a ɛda Yesreel no so na nkraman bɛwe Isebel ɛnam.
37 lesidumbu sikaJezebeli sizakuba njengomquba ebusweni bomhlabathi esiqintini seJizereyeli, ukuze bangathi: Lo nguJezebeli.
Na nʼamu bɛbɔ apete, te sɛ wura wɔ Yesreel haban mu a ne saa enti, obiara ntumi nhunu no.’”
