1 Yeroo Yehooshaafaax mootiin Yihuudaa nagaadhaan gara masaraa isaa Yerusaalemitti deebiʼetti,
Yehosafati, mfumu ya Yuda itabwerera mwamtendere ku nyumba yake yaufumu ku Yerusalemu,
2 Yehuun raajichi ilmi Hanaanii sun isa simachuuf baʼee akkana isaan jedhe; “Ati nama hamaa gargaaruu fi warra Waaqayyoon jibban jaallachuu qabdaa? Kanaafuu dheekkamsi Waaqayyoo sitti dhufeera.
mlosi Yehu, mwana wa Hanani, anatuluka kukakumana naye ndipo anati kwa mfumu, “Kodi nʼkoyenera kuthandiza oyipa ndi kukonda iwo amene amadana ndi Yehova? Chifukwa cha zimenezi mkwiyo wa Yehova uli pa inu.
3 Taʼus waan ati siidaawwan Aasheeraa barbadeessitee fi sababii garaan kee Waaqa barbaaduudhaaf qophaaʼaa taʼeef wanni gaariin si biratti argameera.”
Komabe, muli zinthu zina zabwino mwa inu, pakuti inu mwachotsa mʼdziko muno mafano a Asera ndipo mwakhazikitsa mtima wanu pa kufunafuna Mulungu.”
4 Yehooshaafaax Yerusaalem keessa jiraate; innis Bersheebaadhaa hamma biyya gaaraa Efreemitti saba gidduu deemee akka isaan gara Waaqayyo Waaqa abbootii isaaniitti deebiʼan godhe.
Yehosafati anakakhala ku Yerusalemu, ndipo amayenda pakati pa anthu kuchokera ku Beeriseba mpaka ku dziko lamapiri la Efereimu ndipo anawatembenuzira kwa Yehova, Mulungu wa makolo awo.
5 Innis biyya sana keessatti magaalaawwan Yihuudaa kanneen dallaa jabaa qaban hundatti abbootii murtii muude.
Iye anasankha oweruza mʼdzikomo, mu mzinda uliwonse wotetezedwa wa Yuda.
6 Akkanas jedheen; “Waan hojjettan qalbeeffadhaa; Waaqayyo isa yeroo isin murtii kennitanitti isin wajjin jiru sanaaf jettaniiti malee namaaf jettanii murtii hin kennitaniitii.
Ndipo anawawuza kuti, “Muganize bwino zimene mukuchita, chifukwa simukuweruza mʼmalo mwa munthu koma Yehova, amene ali nanu pamene mukupereka chiweruzo.
7 Waaqayyoon sodaachuun isin keessa haa jiraatu. Sababii Waaqayyo Waaqa keenya bira dabni yookaan wal caalchisuun yookaan mattaʼaa fudhachuun hin jirreef of eeggannaadhaan murtii kennaa.”
Tsopano kuopsa kwa Yehova kukhale pa inu. Muweruze mosamala, pakuti ndi Yehova Mulungu wathu palibe kupotoza chilungamo kapena kukondera kapenanso kulandira ziphuphu.”
8 Yehooshaafaax akkasumas Yerusaalem keessatti akka isaan seera Waaqayyoo eegsisanii dubbii wal dhabiisaatiif illee araara buusaniif Lewwota, lubootaa fi hangafoota maatiiwwan Israaʼel tokko tokko muude. Isaanis Yerusaalem keessa jiraatan.
Mu Yerusalemu, Yehosafati anasankha Alevi ena, ansembe ndi atsogoleri a mabanja a Aisraeli kuti aziyangʼanira Malamulo a Yehova ndi kuweruza milandu. Ndipo iwo amakhala mu Yerusalemu.
9 Innis akkana jedhee isaan ajaje; “Isin amanamummaa fi garaa guutuun Waaqayyoon sodaachaa tajaajiluu qabdu.
Iye anawalamula kuti, “Inu mutumikire mokhulupirika ndi mtima wanu wonse moopa Yehova.
10 Himatawwan namoota biyya keessanii kanneen magaalaa keessa jiraatan irraa waaʼee dhiiga dhangalaasuu yookaan waaʼee seeraa, waaʼee ajajawwanii, waaʼee labsii yookaan qajeelcha diduu irratti gara keessan dhufan, akka isaan Waaqayyotti cubbuu hin hojjenneef akeekkachiisaa. Yoo kanaa achii dheekkamsi isaa isinii fi obboloota keessanitti ni dhufaa. Waan kana godhaa; isinis cubbuu hin hojjettan.
Pa mlandu uliwonse wobwera kwa inu kuchokera kwa abale anu amene amakhala mʼmizinda, mlandu wokhetsa magazi kapena mlandu wosamvera malamulo kapena malangizo kapena ziphunzitso zina, inu muziwachenjeza kuti asachimwire Yehova pakuti mukapanda kutero mkwiyo wake udzakhala pa inu ndi abale anu. Chitani zimenezi ndipo simudzachimwa.
11 “Waan kan Waaqayyoo taʼe kam irratti iyyuu Amariyaan lubichi hangafti, waan kan mootii taʼe kam irratti iyyuu Zebaadiyaan ilmi Ishmaaʼeel hoogganaan gosa Yihuudaa isin irratti muudamaniiru; Lewwonni immoo qondaaltota taʼanii fuula keessan dura ni tajaajilu. Jabaadhaa hojjedhaa; Waaqayyo warra waan gaarii hojjettan wajjin haa jiraatu.”
“Amariya, mkulu wa ansembe adzakhala wokuyangʼanirani pa zonse zokhudza Yehova, ndipo Zebadiya mwana wa Ismaeli, mtsogoleri wa fuko la Yuda, adzakhala wokuyangʼanirani pa zonse zokhudza mfumu ndipo Alevi adzatumikira ngati okuyangʼanirani. Muchite molimba mtima ndipo Yehova akhale ndi iwo amene adzachita bwino.”
