2 Seenaa 24
1 Yooʼaash yeroo mootii taʼetti nama umuriin isaa waggaa torbaa ture; innis Yerusaalem keessa taaʼee waggaa afurtama ni bulche. Maqaan haadha isaa Ziibiyaa ture; isheenis nama Bersheebaa turte.
UJowashi waba yinkosi eleminyaka eyisikhombisa yokuzalwa, njalo wabusa eJerusalema okweminyaka engamatshumi amane. Ibizo likanina linguZibhiya owayevela eBherishebha.
2 Yooʼaash bara Yehooyaadaa lubichaa hunda keessa waan fuula Waaqayyoo duratti qajeelaa taʼe hojjete.
UJowashi wenza okulungileyo phambi kukaThixo iminyaka yonke uJehoyada engumphristi.
3 Yehooyaadaan niitota lama isaaf file; innis ilmaanii fi intallan ni dhalche.
UJehoyada wamdingela abafazi ababili, wazala amadodana lamadodakazi.
4 Yeroo xinnoo booddees Yooʼaash mana qulqullummaa Waaqayyoo haaromsuuf murteesse.
Ngemva kwesikhathi esithile uJowashi wabona kufanele ukuthi alungise kutsha ithempeli likaThixo.
5 Innis lubootaa fi Lewwota walitti waamee, “Gara magaalaawwan Yihuudaa dhaqaatii maallaqa waggaa waggaadhaan mana qulqullummaa Waaqa keessanii haaromsuuf oolu Israaʼeloota hunda irraa walitti qabaa. Kanas ammuma godhaa” isaaniin jedhe. Lewwonni garuu dafanii hin goone.
Wabuthanisa abaphristi labaLevi wathi kubo: “Yanini emizini yakoJuda liyeqoqa imali yomnyaka ngomnyaka kuye wonke umʼIsrayeli, lilungiswe kutsha ithempeli likaNkulunkulu wenu. Kwenzeni khathesi.” Kodwa abaLevi abazange bakwenze masinyane.
6 Kanaafuu mootichi Yehooyaadaa lubicha hangafticha waamee, “Ati maaliif akka Lewwonni gibira Museen garbichi Waaqayyoo fi yaaʼiin Israaʼel akka dunkaana dhuga baʼumsaatiif baafamu murteessan sana Yihuudaa fi Yerusaalem irraa walitti qaban hin godhin?” jedheen.
Ngakho inkosi yabiza uJehoyada umphristi omkhulu yathi kuye, “Kungani ungatshelanga abaLevi ukuba baqoqe koJuda laseJerusalema umthelo owabekwa nguMosi inceku kaThixo kanye lasebandleni lako-Israyeli okweThente loBufakazi na?”
7 Yeroo sana ilmaan Ataaliyaa dubartittii hamtuu sanaa mana qulqullummaa Waaqaa cabsanii seenanii miʼoota qulqulleeffaman illee Baʼaalin tajaajiluuf itti ni fayyadaman.
Amadodana ka-Athaliya umfazi oxhwalileyo adiliza ithempeli likaNkulunkulu abuye azisebenzisela lezinto zalo ezingcwele kuboBhali.
8 Kanaafuu mootichi akka isaan sanduuqa maallaqni itti walitti qabamu hojjetanii karaa alaatiin balbala mana qulqullummaa Waaqayyoo bira kaaʼan ni ajaje.
Ngokulaya kwenkosi, kwenziwa ibhokisi labekwa phandle, esangweni lethempeli likaThixo.
9 Akka isaan qaraxa Museen garbichi Waaqaa sun yeroo gammoojjii keessa turanitti Israaʼeloota ajaje sana Waaqayyoof fidaniif Yihuudaa fi Yerusaalem keessatti labsiin tokko ni baʼe.
Kwasekumenyezelwa kulolonke elakoJuda laseJerusalema ukuba kulethwe kuThixo, umthelo owawumiswe nguMosi inceku kaNkulunkulu enkangala ukuba uzakhitshwa ngabako-Israyeli.
10 Qondaaltonni hundii fi sabni hundi buusii isaanii gammachuudhaan fidanii hamma inni guututti sanduuqicha keessa ni buusan.
Izikhulu zonke labantu bonke baletha okwabo ngokujabula, bakufaka ebhokisini laze lagcwala.
11 Yommuu sanduuqichi Lewwotaan gara qondaaltota mootiitti fidamee qondaaltonni sun akka maallaqni baayʼeen isa keessa jiru arganitti barreessaan mootichaa fi ajajaan lubicha hangafaa dhufanii maallaqa sana sanduuqa keessaa garagalchanii sanduuqicha iddoo isaatti deebisu ture. Isaanis guyyuma guyyaan akkas godhanii maallaqa akka malee baayʼee walitti ni qaban.
Kwakusithi nxa ibhokisi lingalethwa ngabaLevi ezikhulwini zenkosi zithi zingabona ukuthi sekulemali enengi, unobhala wesigodlweni lesikhulu somphristi omkhulu bafike bathulule okwakusebhokisini babe sebelibuyisela endaweni yalo. Bakwenza lokho ngezikhathi zonke baze babuthelela imali enengi kakhulu.
12 Mootichii fi Yehooyaadaanis maallaqa sana warra mana qulqullummaa Waaqayyoo hojjechiisuuf itti gaafatamummaa fudhatanitti ni kennan. Isaanis mana qulqullummaa Waaqayyoo haaromsuudhaaf namoota dhagaa cabsanii fi ogeeyyii hojii mukaa, akkasumas mana qulqullummaa haaromsuudhaaf hojjettoota sibiilaa fi naasii ittiin ni qaxaran.
Inkosi loJehoyada baholisa abantu ababesenza umsebenzi owawufanele wenziwe ethempelini likaThixo. Baqhatsha ababazi bamatshe lababazi ukuze bakhe kutsha ithempeli likaThixo, labakhandi bezinsimbi kanye labakhandi bethusi besakha kutsha ithempeli.
13 Hojjettoonni qaxaraman waan jabaatanii hojjetaniif hojiin sun isaaniif ni milkaaʼe. Mana qulqullummaa Waaqaas akkuma duraan turetti deebisanii ni haaromsan; ni jabeessanis.
Amadoda ayebona ngokuqhutshwa komsebenzi ayekhaliphile, njalo umsebenzi ayewukhangele waqhubeka kuhle. Lakhiwa kutsha ithempeli likaNkulunkulu labuyela esimeni salo elaliyiso njalo baliqinisa.
14 Erga fixanii booddees maallaqa hafe fidanii mootichaa fi Yehooyaadaatti ni kennan; maallaqa sanaanis miʼoota mana qulqullummaa Waaqayyoo jechuunis miʼoota tajaajilaa fi kan aarsaan gubamu ittiin dhiʼeeffamu akkasumas caabiiwwan, miʼoota warqee fi meetii ittiin ni hojjetan. Isaanis bara Yehooyaadaa keessa utuu gargar hin kutin mana qulqullummaa Waaqayyoo keessatti aarsaa gubamu dhiʼeessaa turan.
Bathe sebeqedile, baletha imali eyasalayo enkosini lakuJehoyada, benza ngayo impahla zethempeli likaThixo: izitsha zokusebenzela kanye lezeminikelo yokutshiswa, izinditshi lezinye izitsha zegolide lezesiliva. UJehoyada esaphila, iminikelo yokutshiswa yayihlezi ikhona ethempelini likaThixo.
15 Yehooyaadaanis bara dheeraa jiraatee dulloomee waggaa dhibba tokkoo fi soddomatti ni duʼe.
UJehoyada wayeseluphele eleminyaka eminengi, wafa eleminyaka yokuzalwa elikhulu elilamatshumi amathathu.
16 Innis sababii Israaʼel keessatti Waaqaa fi mana qulqullummaa isaatiif waan gaarii hojjeteef Magaalaa Daawit keessatti mootota biratti ni awwaalame.
Wangcwatshwa lamakhosi eMzini kaDavida ngenxa yalokho okuhle akwenza ko-Israyeli ekwenzela uNkulunkulu ethempelini lakhe.
17 Erga Yehooyaadaan duʼee booddee qondaaltonni Yihuudaa dhufanii amanamummaa mootichaaf qaban ni ibsan; innis isaan dhaggeeffate.
Ngemva kokufa kukaJehoyada, izikhulu zakoJuda zayakhonza enkosini uJowashi, yazilalela.
18 Isaanis mana qulqullummaa Waaqayyoo Waaqa abbootii isaanii dhiisanii siidaawwan Aasheeraa fi waaqota tolfamoo ni waaqeffatan. Sababii balleessaa isaaniifis dheekkamsi Waaqaa Yihuudaa fi Yerusaalemitti ni dhufe.
Balidela ithempeli likaThixo, uNkulunkulu waboyise, basebekhonza izinsika zika-Ashera, lezithombe zakhe. Ngenxa yalesisono, ulaka lukaNkulunkulu lwehlela phezu kwabakoJuda laseJerusalema.
19 Akka isaan gara isaatti saba deebisaniif Waaqayyo raajota isaanitti erge; raajonnis isaanitti rageessan; isaan garuu dhagaʼuu hin barbaanne.
Lanxa uThixo wathumela abaphrofethi ebantwini ukuba bababuyisele kuye njalo lanxa bafakaza ngokungavumelani labo, abazange babalalele.
20 Ergasiis Hafuurri Waaqaa Zakkaariyaas ilma Yehooyaadaa lubichaa irra ni buʼe. Innis kaʼee fuula uummataa dura dhaabatee, “Waaqni akkana jedha: ‘Isin maaliif ajaja Waaqayyoo eeguu diddani? Isin hin milkooftan. Sababii isin Waaqayyoon dhiiftaniif innis isin dhiiseera’” jedheen.
Ngakho uMoya kaNkulunkulu wehlela kuZakhariya indodana yomphristi uJehoyada. Wema phambi kwabantu wathi, “Nanku okutshiwo nguNkulunkulu: ‘Kungani lingalaleli imilayo kaThixo? Aliyikuphumelela. Ngenxa yokumlahla uThixo elikwenzileyo, laye uselilahlile.’”
21 Isaan garuu isatti mariʼatanii ajaja mootichaatiin oobdii mana qulqullummaa Waaqayyoo keessatti dhagaadhaan tumanii isa ni ajjeesan.
Kodwa bamhlamukela, kwathi ngokuqondisa kwenkosi bamkhanda bambulala ngamatshe egumeni lethempeli likaThixo.
22 Yooʼaash mootichi arjummaa Yehooyaadaan abbaan Zakkaariyaas isaaf godhe sana hin yaadanne; qooda kanaa inni ilma isaa ni ajjeese; innis yeroo duʼutti, “Waaqayyo waan kana haa argu; haaloos haa baʼu” jedhe.
INkosi uJowashi ayizange izihluphe ngomusa eyayiwenzelwe nguJehoyada uyise kaZakhariya kodwa yabulala indodana yakhe, yona yathi ekufeni kwayo, “UThixo kakubone lokhu, aphindisele.”
23 Dhuma waggaa sanaattis loltoonni Sooriyaa Yooʼaashitti ni duulan; Yihuudaa fi Yerusaalem qabatanii hooggantoota sabaa hunda ni fixan. Isaanis waan boojiʼan hunda gara Damaasqootti mootii isaaniitti ni ergan.
Ekupheleni komnyaka amabutho ama-Aramu ahlasela uJowashi; ahlasela koJuda laseJerusalema abulala bonke abakhokheli babantu. Impango yonke ayithumela enkosini yawo eDamaseko.
24 Loltoonni Sooriyaa namoota xinnoo qabatanii dhufan illee Waaqayyo loltoota akka malee baayʼee harka isaaniitti dabarsee ni kenne. Sababii Yihuudoonni Waaqayyo Waaqa abbootii isaanii dhiisaniif Yooʼaashitti murtiin murame.
Kwathi loba impi yama-Aramu yayikade ize lamadoda amalutshwana, uThixo wanikela ezandleni zawo ibutho elikhulu kakhulu. Njengoba abakoJuda babemlahlile uThixo, uNkulunkulu wabokhokho babo, uJowashi wehlulelwa ngokufaneleyo.
25 Warri Sooriyaa yommuu baʼanitti Yooʼaashin akka malee madeessanii ni deeman. Qondaaltonni isaas sababii inni ilma Yehooyaadaa lubichaa ajjeeseef isatti mariʼatanii siree isaa irratti isa ajjeesan. Kanaafuu inni duʼee Magaalaa Daawit keessatti ni awwaalame; garuu iddoo awwaala moototaatti hin awwaalamne.
Ama-Aramu athi esehlehla, atshiya uJowashi elimele kakhulu. Izikhulu zakhe zamhlamukela ngokubulala kwakhe indodana kaJehoyada umphristi, zahle zambulalela embhedeni wakhe. Ngakho wafa wayangcwatshwa eMzini kaDavida, kodwa kungasikho emathuneni amakhosi.
26 Warri isatti mariʼatanis Zaabaad ilma Shimeʼaati dubartii Amoon sanaa fi Yehoozaabaad ilma Shimriiti dubartii Moʼaab sanaa turan.
Laba abaceba ukumbulala kwakunguZabhadi, indodana kaShimeyathi owesifazane wama-Amoni loJehozabhadi, indodana kaShimirithi owesifazane wamaMowabi.
27 Seenaan ilmaan isaa, raajiiwwan waaʼee isaa dubbataman hedduunii fi seenaan haaromfamuu mana qulqullummaa Waaqaa kitaaba seenaa moototaa keessatti barreeffameera. Amasiyaa ilmi isaa iddoo isaa buʼee mootii taʼe.
Imbali yamadodana akhe, iziphrofethi ezinengi ngaye, lembali yokwakhiwa kutsha kwethempeli likaNkulunkulu kulotshiwe egwalweni lwezindaba zamakhosi. U-Amaziya indodana yakhe waba yinkosi esikhundleni sakhe.
