1 Hafuurri Waaqaa Azaariyaa ilma Oodeed irra ni buʼe.
Umoya kaNkulunkulu wehlela phezu kuka-Azariya indodana ka-Odedi.
2 Innis Asaatti gad baʼee akkana jedheen; “Aasaa fi Yihuudaan hundi, Beniyaamis na dhagaʼaa. Yoo isin isa wajjin jiraattan Waaqayyo isin wajjin ni jiraata. Yoo isin isa barbaaddan inni isiniif ni argama; yoo isin isa dhiiftan immoo innis isin dhiisa.
Waphuma ukuba ayehlangabezana lo-Asa wasesithi kuye, “Lalela kimi, Asa labo bonke abakoJuda labakoBhenjamini. UThixo ulawe nxa wena ukuye. Nxa umfuna, uzamthola, kodwa nxa umlahla uzakulahla.
3 Yeroo dheeraadhaaf Israaʼeloonni Waaqa dhugaa malee luba isaan barsiisuu fi seera malee jiraachaa turan.
Okwesikhathi eside abako-Israyeli babengelaye uNkulunkulu weqiniso, bengelaye umphristi wokufundisa njalo bengelawo umthetho.
4 Yeroo rakkina isaaniitti garuu gara Waaqayyo Waaqa Israaʼelitti deebiʼanii isa barbaadan; innis isaaniif ni argame.
Kodwa osizini lwabo baphendukela kuThixo, uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli, bamdinga bamthola.
5 Sababii bara sana keessa jiraattonni biyyattii hundi raafama keessa turaniif baʼuu fi deebiʼanii galuun amansiisaa hin turre.
Ngalezonsuku, ngenxa yokuxokozela okukhulu kwezizwe, kwakungelula ukuhambahamba.
6 Sababii Waaqni rakkina gosa hundaatiin isaan dhiphisaa tureef sabni tokko saba biraatiin, magaalaan tokko magaalaa biraatiin barbadeeffamaa ture.
Kwakulencithakalo isizwe sichithwa ngesinye, umuzi uchithwa ngomunye, ngoba uNkulunkulu wabehlisela zonke inhlobonhlobo zosizi.
7 Isin garuu jabaadhaa; harki keessanis hin laafin; hojiin keessan badhaasa argataatii.”
Kodwa wena, qina ungayekethisi, ngoba owakho umsebenzi uzakuba lomvuzo.”
8 Aasaan yommuu dubbii kanaa fi raajii Azaariyaa ilma Oodeed dhagaʼetti ni jajjabaate. Innis waaqota jibbisiisoo harka namaatiin hojjetaman biyya Yihuudaa, Beniyaamii fi magaalaawwan biyya gaaraa Efreem keessatti qabate hunda keessaa balleesse. Iddoo aarsaa Waaqayyoo kan gardaafoo mana qulqullummaa Waaqayyoo dura jiru illee ni haaromse.
U-Asa wathi ewezwa lamazwi lesiphrofethi sika-Azariya indodana ka-Odedi umphrofethi, waqina waba lesibindi. Wasusa zonke izithombe ezinengisayo kulolonke ilizwe lakoJuda lelakoBhenjamini lasemizini ayeyithumbile emaqaqeni ako-Efrayimi. Wavuselela i-alithari likaThixo elaliphambi komkoto wethempeli likaThixo.
9 Innis Yihuudaa fi Beniyaam akkasumas warra biyya Efreem, Minaasee fi Simiʼoonii dhufanii alagummaadhaan isaan gidduu jiraachaa turan hunda walitti qabe; namoonni akka malee baayʼeen akka Waaqayyo Waaqni isaa isa wajjin jiru arganii Israaʼel keessaa gara isaa dhufaniitii.
Wasebuthanisa bonke abakoJuda labakoBhenjamini kanye labantu ababevela ko-Efrayimi, lakoManase kanye lakoSimiyoni ababehlezi phakathi kwabo, ngoba babebanengi kakhulu abako-Israyeli ababethe ngokubona ukuthi uThixo uNkulunkulu wayelaye bathutha beza ngakuye.
10 Isaanis waggaa kudha shanaffaa Aasaan mootii taʼetti jiʼa sadaffaa keessa Yerusaalemitti walitti qabaman.
Babuthana eJerusalema ngenyanga yesithathu ngomnyaka wetshumi lanhlanu wokubusa kuka-Asa.
11 Yeroo sanattis waan boojiʼanii fidan keessaa sangoota dhibba torbaa fi hoolota kuma torba Waaqayyoof aarsaa godhan.
Ngalesosikhathi benza imihlatshelo kuThixo eyezinkomo ezingamakhulu ayisikhombisa lezimvu kanye lembuzi eziyizinkulungwane eziyisikhombisa kulezo ababezithumbe babuya lazo.
12 Isaanis garaa fi lubbuu isaanii guutuudhaan Waaqayyo Waaqa abbootii isaanii barbaaduudhaaf kakuu ni galan.
Benza isivumelwano sokuba bamdinge uThixo, uNkulunkulu wabokhokho babo, ngezinhliziyo zabo ezipheleleyo langomoya.
13 Namni Waaqayyo Waaqa Israaʼel hin barbaanne hundi xinnaas taʼu guddaan, dhiiras taʼu dubartiin ni ajjeefama ture.
Bonke ababengayi kumdinga uThixo, uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli, babefanele babulawe, loba bebancinyane loba bebakhulu, loba kungowesilisa kumbe owesifazane.
14 Isaanis sagalee guddaa fi iyyaan, malakataa fi gaanfa afuufuudhaan Waaqayyoof ni kakatan.
Benza isifungo kuThixo ngokuvungama, bememeza njalo bevuthela lamacilongo lempondo.
15 Yihuudoonni hundinuu waan garaa guutuudhaan kakataniif kakuu kanatti akka malee gammadan. Isaan fedhiidhaan Waaqa ni barbaadan; innis isaaniif argame. Kanaafuu Waaqayyo karaa hundaan boqonnaa isaaniif ni kenne.
AbakoJuda bathokoza bonke ngesifungo ngoba babesenze ngenhliziyo yabo yonke. Bamdinga uThixo ngokulangatha, wabavumela ukuthi bamthole. Ngakho uThixo wabanika ukuthula inxa zonke.
16 Aasaan Mootichi akkoo isaa Maʼakaa iyyuu waan isheen fakkii Asheeraa jibbisiisaa tokko tolfatteef iddoo ulfinaa kan isheen akka haadha mootiitti qabaatte sana irra ishee buuse. Aasaan fakkii sana caccabsee Sulula Qeedroon keessatti ni gube.
Inkosi u-Asa yasusa ugogo wayo uMahakha esikhundleni sokuba yindlovukazi ngoba wayenze insika yokukhonzela unkulunkulukazi u-Ashera oyisinengiso. U-Asa wayidiliza insika, wayiqumaquma wayitshisela eSigodini saseKhidironi.
17 Yoo inni iddoowwan sagadaa kanneen gaarran irraa guutumaan guutuutti Israaʼel keessaa balleessuu baate iyyuu garaan Aasaa bara jireenya isaa guutuu Waaqayyoof kennamee ture.
Lanxa engasusanga izindawo zokukhonzela ko-Israyeli, u-Asa wayezinikele kuThixo ngenhliziyo yakhe yonke empilweni yakhe yonke.
18 Innis meetii fi warqee akkasumas miʼoota innii fi abbaan isaa Waaqaaf addaan baasan gara mana qulqullummaa Waaqayyootti ni galche.
Wangenisa ethempelini likaNkulunkulu isiliva legolide lezinto lezo yena kanye loyise ababezahlukanisele uThixo.
19 Hamma bara mootummaa Aasaa waggaa soddomii shanaffaatti lolli tokko iyyuu hin kaane.
Akusazange kube lempi kwaze kwaba ngumnyaka wamatshumi amathathu lanhlanu wokubusa kuka-Asa.
