Ɔko biara ansi Aram ne Israel ntam mfeɛ mmiɛnsa.

Na mfeɛ mmiɛnsa no mu, ɔhene Yehosafat a ɔdi adeɛ Yuda kɔɔ Israelhene Ahab nkyɛn.
3 Mambo weIsraeri akanga ati kuvaranda vake, “Hamuzivi here kuti Ramoti Gireadhi ndeyedu asi hapana chatiri kuita kuti tiitore zvakare kubva kuna mambo weAramu?”
Na Ahab abisa ne mpanimfoɔ sɛ, “Moahunu sɛ Aramfoɔ da so te yɛn kuro Ramot Gilead mu? Nanso, yɛnyɛɛ ho hwee!”
4 Uye akakumbira Jehoshafati akati, “Uchaenda neni here kundorwa neRamoti Gireadhi?” Jehoshafati akapindura mambo weIsraeri achiti, “Ini ndakangofanana newe, vanhu vangu vakafanana nevako, mabhiza angu samabhiza ako.”
Enti ɔbisaa Yehosafat sɛ, “Wobɛka me ho, na yɛako atia Ramot Gilead anaa?” Na Yehosafat buaa ɔhene Ahab sɛ, “Adɛn? Ɛyɛ asɛm a ɛda ne kwan mu. Wo ne me yɛ anuanom, na mʼakodɔm yɛ wo dea, sɛ wobɛka asɛm a wopɛ akyerɛ wɔn. Mpo, mʼapɔnkɔ da wo da.”
5 Asi Jehoshafati akatiwo kuna mambo weIsraeri, “Tanga watsvaga zvinorayirwa naJehovha.”
Na Yehosafat ka kaa ho sɛ, “Deɛ ɛdi ɛkan no, ma yɛmmisa Awurade hɔ afotuo.”
6 Saka mambo weIsraeri akaunganidza pamwe chete, vaprofita, vangangoita varume mazana mana, akavabvunza akati, “Ndoenda here kundorwa neRamoti Gireadhi, kana kuti ndoregera?” Vakapindura vakati, “Endai nokuti Jehovha achaiisa muruoko rwamambo.”
Enti, ɔhene Ahab frɛɛ nʼadiyifoɔ a wɔn dodoɔ bɛyɛ ahanan no nyinaa, bisaa wɔn sɛ, “Menkɔko ntia Ramot Gilead anaa mennkɔ?” Wɔn nyinaa buaa sɛ, “Kɔ so! Awurade bɛma woadi nkonim animuonyam so.”
7 Asi Jehoshafati akabvunza achiti, “Hapana here mumwe muprofita waJehovha pano watingabvunza?”
Nanso, Yehosafat bisaa sɛ, “Enti, Awurade odiyifoɔ biara nso nni ha? Anka mepɛ sɛ mebisa no saa asɛm korɔ no ara.”
8 Mambo weIsraeri akapindura Jehoshafati akati, “Pachine murume mumwe chete watinogona kubvunza Jehovha naye, asi ndinomuvenga nokuti haamboprofiti chinhu chakanaka pamusoro pangu asi zvakaipa nguva dzose. NdiMikaya, mwanakomana waImura.” Jehoshafati akapindura akati, “Mambo haafaniri kutaura kudaro.”
Ɔhene Ahab buaa sɛ, “Awurade odiyifoɔ baako da so wɔ ha, nanso metane no. Ɔnhyɛ nkɔm pa biara sɛ nkɔm bɔne, na ɔhyɛ fa me ho. Ne din de Mikaia a ɔyɛ Imla babarima.” Na Yehosafat kaa sɛ, “Nkasa saa. Momma yɛntie asɛm a ɔwɔ ka.”
9 Saka mambo weIsraeri akadana mumwe wavaranda vake akati, “Uyisa Mikaya mwanakomana waImura izvozvi.”
Enti, Israelhene frɛɛ ne mpanimfoɔ no mu baako, ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Ka wo ho kɔfa Imla babarima Mikaia bra.”
10 Mambo weIsraeri naJehoshafati, mambo weJudha, vakanga vakagara pazvigaro zvavo vakapfeka nguo dzavo dzoumambo vari paburiro, pedyo nesuo reSamaria, vaprofita vose vachiprofita pamberi pavo.
Israelhene Ahab ne Yudahene Yehosafat hyɛɛ wɔn ahemfo ntadeɛ, tenaa wɔn ahennwa mu wɔ aponnwa a ɛbɛn Samaria ɛkwan no ano. Saa ɛberɛ no, na Ahab adiyifoɔ no rehyɛ nkɔm wɔ wɔn anim.
11 Zvino Zedhekia mwanakomana waKenaana akanga agadzira nyanga dzesimbi, akati, “Zvanzi naJehovha: ‘Nedzidzi muchatunga vaAramu kusvikira vaparara!’”
Wɔn mu baako a wɔfrɛ no Sedekia a ɔyɛ Kenaana babarima yɛɛ dadeɛ mmɛn bi ka too dwa sɛ, “Sɛdeɛ Awurade ka nie: Mode saa mmɛn yi bɛwowɔ Aramfoɔ no akunkum wɔn.”
12 Vamwe vaprofita vose vakanga vachiprofita zvimwe chetezvo. Vakati, “Rwisai Ramoti Gireadhi mukunde, nokuti Jehovha achariisa muruoko rwamambo.”
Adiyifoɔ a wɔwɔ hɔ no nyinaa penee so, kaa sɛ, “Aane, monkɔ Ramot-Gilead, na monkɔdi nkonim, ɛfiri sɛ, Awurade bɛma moadi nkonim.”
13 Nhume yakanga yaenda kundodana Mikaya yakati kwaari, “Tarirai, somunhu mumwe chete, vamwe vaprofita vari kutaura kuti mambo vachabudirira. Shoko renyu ngaribvumirane neravo, uye mutaurewo zvakanaka.”
Na ɔbɔfoɔ a ɔkɔfaa Mikaia no ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Tie, adiyifoɔ no nyinaa hyɛ nkonimdie ho nkɔm ma ɔhene. Hwɛ sɛ wo ne wɔn adwene bɛyɛ baako, na wo nso, wobɛhyɛ nkonimdie ho nkɔm.”
14 Asi Mikaya akati, “NaJehovha mupenyu, ndinogona chete kumuudza zvandinoudzwa naJehovha.”
Nanso, Mikaia kaa sɛ, “Mmerɛ dodoɔ a Awurade te aseɛ yi, deɛ Awurade aka akyerɛ me sɛ menka no na mɛka.”
15 Paakasvika, mambo akamubvunza akati, “Mikaya, toenda here kundorwa neRamoti Gireadhi, kana kuti torega?” Akapindura akati, “Rwisai mukunde nokuti Jehovha achariisa muruoko rwamambo.”
Ɛberɛ a Mikaia bɛduruu ahennimu no, Ahab bisaa no sɛ, “Mikaia, yɛnkɔko ntia Ramot-Gilead anaa yɛnnkɔ?” Na Mikaia buaa sɛ, “Monkɔ! Na Awurade bɛma ɔhene adi nkonim animuonyam so.”
16 Mambo akati kwaari, “Ndinofanira kukupikisa kangani kuti undiudze chokwadi pasina chimwe chinhu muzita raJehovha?”
Nanso, ɔhene no sɔɔ so sɛ, “Mpɛn ahe na menka sɛ, ɛberɛ biara a wobɛkasa ama Awurade no, ɛsɛ sɛ woka nokorɛ?”
17 Ipapo Mikaya akapindura akati, “Ndakaona Israeri yose yakapararira pamakomo samakwai asina mufudzi, uye Jehovha akati, ‘Vanhu ava havana tenzi. Mumwe nomumwe wavo ngaaende kumba norugare.’”
Na Mikaia ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Anisoadehunu mu, mehunuu sɛ Israel abɔ apete mmepɔ no so, te sɛ nnwan a wɔnni ɔhwɛfoɔ. Na Awurade kaa sɛ, ‘Wɔakum wɔn wura. Ma wɔnkɔ efie asomdwoeɛ mu.’”
18 Mambo weIsraeri akati kuna Jehoshafati, “Handina kukuudza here kuti haamboprofiti chinhu chakanaka pamusoro pangu, asi zvakaipa chete?”
Israelhene ka kyerɛɛ Yehosafat sɛ, “Manka saa ankyerɛ wo? Ɛda biara saa na ɔyɛ. Ɔnhyɛ nkɔm pa biara sɛ nkɔntorɔ na ɔhyɛ fa me ho.”
19 Mikaya akaenderera mberi akati, “Naizvozvo chinzwai shoko raJehovha: Ndakaona Jehovha akagara pachigaro chake choushe, uye hondo dzose dzokudenga dzakamira dzakamupoteredza kurudyi nokuruboshwe kwake.
Mikaia toaa so sɛ, “Tie deɛ Awurade ka. Mehunuu Awurade sɛ ɔte nʼahennwa so a ne sorofoɔ akodɔm nyinaa atwa ne ho ahyia wɔ ne nifa ne ne benkum so.”
20 Zvino Jehovha akati, ‘Ndiani achaenda kundokwezva Ahabhu kuti arwise Ramoti Gireadhi agoenda kundofira ikoko?’ “Mumwe akataura izvi, mumwe akataura izvo.
Na Awurade bisaa sɛ, “Hwan na ɔbɛtumi adaadaa Ahab, ama wakɔ ɔko atia Ramot Gilead, a ɛbɛtumi aba sɛ wɔbɛkum no wɔ hɔ?” Wɔsusuu nsɛm ahodoɔ bebree ho wɔ hɔ,
21 Pakupedzisira, mumwe mweya wakauya ukamira pamberi paJehovha ukati, ‘Ndichandomukwezva ini.’
kɔsii sɛ ne korakora no, honhom bi kɔɔ Awurade nkyɛn kɔkaa sɛ, “Mɛtumi ayɛ!”
22 “Jehovha akabvunza akati, ‘Nenzira ipi?’ “Iwo wakati, ‘Ndichaenda ndonova mweya unoreva nhema mumiromo yavaprofita vake vose.’ “Jehovha akati, ‘Uchabudirira mukumukwezva. Enda undozviita.’
Awurade bisaa sɛ, “Ɛkwan bɛn so na wobɛfa ayɛ yei?” Na honhom no buaa sɛ, “Mɛkɔ akɔdaadaa Ahab adiyifoɔ, ama wɔadi atorɔ.” Awurade kaa sɛ, “Kɔ so yɛ, na wobɛdi nkonim.
23 “Saka iye zvino Jehovha aisa mweya unoreva nhema mumiromo yavaprofita venyu vose ava. Jehovha atema kuti muchawira mudambudziko guru kwazvo.”
“Enti afei, Awurade de nkontompo honhom ahyɛ wʼadiyifoɔ anomu. Na Awurade adwene ɔhaw ne abɛbrɛsɛ ama wo.”
24 Ipapo Zedhekia mwanakomana waKenaana akaenda kwaari akarova Mikaya nembama. Akamubvunza achiti, “Mweya waJehovha wakafamba nenzira ipiko uchibva kwandiri kuti uzotaura kwauri?”
Ɛnna Kenaana babarima Sedekia kɔɔ Mikaia so, kɔbɔɔ nʼani so. Ɔbisaa no sɛ, “Da bɛn na Awurade honhom firii me mu, bɛkasa kyerɛɛ wo?”
25 Mikaya akapindura akati, “Uchazviziva musi wauchaenda kundohwanda muimba yomukati.”
Na Mikaia buaa sɛ, “Ɛrenkyɛre biara, wobɛhunu nokorɛ no wɔ ɛberɛ a wobɛdwane akɔtɛ kɔkoam dan bi mu.”
26 Ipapo mambo weIsraeri akarayira akati, “Torai Mikaya mumudzosere kuna Amoni mutongi weguta nokuna Joashi mwanakomana wamambo
Israelhene Ahab hyɛɛ sɛ, “Monkyere Mikaia, na momfa no nkɔma Amon a ɔyɛ kuro no mu amrado, na momfa no nkɔ me babarima Yoas nkyɛn.
27 muti, ‘Zvanzi namambo: Isai munhu uyu mutorongo murege kumupa chimwe chinhu kunze kwechingwa nemvura kusvikira ndadzoka norugare.’”
Monka saa nhyɛ a ɛfiri ɔhene nkyɛn nkyerɛ wɔn sɛ, ‘Fa saa ɔbarima yi to afiase, na burodo ne nsuo nko na momfa mma no nni, kɔsi sɛ mɛsane afiri akono aba asomdwoeɛ mu.’”
28 Mikaya akati, “Kana zvikaitika kuti madzoka norugare, Jehovha haana kutaura neni.” Ipapo akatizve, “Inzwai mashoko angu imi vanhu mose!”
Nanso, Mikaia buaa sɛ, “Sɛ wosane ba asomdwoeɛ mu a, na ɛkyerɛ sɛ, Awurade amfa me so ankasa.” Na ɔka kyerɛɛ wɔn a wɔgyinagyina hɔ, atwa ne ho ahyia no sɛ, “Saa asɛm a maka yi, monhyɛ no nso.”
29 Saka mambo weIsraeri naJehoshafati mambo weJudha vakaenda kuRamoti Gireadhi.
Na Israelhene ne Yudahene Yehosafat dii wɔn akodɔm anim, kɔto hyɛɛ Ramot-Gilead so.
30 Mambo weIsraeri akati kuna Jehoshafati, “Ndichapinda muhondo iyi ndichinge mumwe munhu, asi iwe pfeka mbatya dzako dzoumambo.” Saka mambo weIsraeri akazviita somumwe munhu akaenda kundorwa.
Afei, ɔhene Ahab ka kyerɛɛ Yehosafat sɛ, “Yɛrekɔ ɔko yi, mɛsakyera me ho, sɛdeɛ ɛbɛyɛ a, obiara renhunu me. Nanso, wo deɛ, hyɛ wʼahentadeɛ.” Enti, Ahab sakyeraa ne ho, na wɔkɔɔ ɔko no.
31 Zvino mambo weAramu akanga arayira vatungamiri vake vengoro makumi matatu navaviri achiti, “Musarwa nomunhu upi zvake, muduku kana mukuru, kunze kwamambo weIsraeri.”
Saa ɛberɛ no, na Aramhene ahyɛ ne nteaseɛnamkafoɔ aduasa mmienu no sɛ, “Monto nhyɛ Israelhene nko ara so!”
32 Vatungamiri vengoro pavakaona Jehoshafati, vakafunga kuti, “Zvirokwazvo uyu ndiye mambo weIsraeri.” Naizvozvo vakatendeuka kuti vamurwise, asi Jehoshafati paakaridza mhere,
Enti, ɛberɛ a Aramhene nteaseɛnamkafoɔ no hunuu Yehosafat sɛ ɔhyɛ nʼahentadeɛ no, wɔtaa no. Wɔteateaam sɛ, “Israelhene no ne no.” Nanso, ɛberɛ a Yehosafat teaam no,
33 vatungamiri vengoro vakaona kuti akanga asiriye mambo weIsraeri ndokubva varega kumutevera.
nteaseɛnamkafoɔ no hunuu sɛ ɛnyɛ ɔno ne Israelhene no enti, wɔgyaa nʼakyidie.
34 Asi mumwe murume akapfura museve wake chipfurepfure akabva abaya mambo weIsraeri paisangana zvipenga zvembatya dzake dzehondo. Mambo akati kumuchairi wengoro yake, “Tendeutsa ngoro undibvise pano pari kurwiwa. Ndakuvadzwa.”
Aram sraani bi de anibiannasoɔ too agyan kyerɛɛ Israel asraafoɔ no so, ma ɛkɔwɔɔ Israelhene wɔ ne nkataboɔ ahyiaeɛ so. Ahab teaam kyerɛɛ ne teaseɛnamkafoɔ no sɛ, “Fa me firi ha ntɛm, na wɔapira me pa ara.”
35 Hondo yakarwiwa zuva rose, uye mambo akaita zvokutsigirwa mungoro yake akatarisa vaAramu. Ropa rakabva paronda rake rakaerera rikaenda mukati mengoro, uye manheru iwayo akabva afa.
Ɔko no kɔɔ so saa ara da mu no nyinaa, na wɔde Ahab tweree biribi wɔ ne teaseɛnam mu a nʼani kyerɛ Aramfoɔ no. Mogya tuu no firi nʼapirakuro no mu, guu teaseɛnam no mu, na onwunu dwoeɛ no, ɔwuiɛ.
36 Zuva parakanga rava kuvira, kwakadaidzirwa kuhondo yose kuti, “Munhu wose kuguta rake; munhu wose kunyika yake!”
Onwunu reyɛ adwo no, wɔteateaam faa akodɔm no nyinaa mu sɛ: “Ɔko no aba awieeɛ. Monsane nkɔ efie!”
37 Naizvozvo mambo akafa, akauyiswa kuSamaria, akavigwa ikoko.
Na ɔhene no wuiɛ no, wɔde nʼamu no kɔɔ Samaria, kɔsiee no wɔ hɔ.
38 Vakasuka ngoro padziva reSamaria (panova ndipo paishambira zvifeve), imbwa dzikananzva ropa rake, sezvakanga zvarehwa neshoko raJehovha.
Na wɔhoroo ne teaseɛnam no ho wɔ asubura bi a ɛwɔ Samaria a adwamanfoɔ dware hɔ, na nkraman bɛtaferee ɔhene no mogya no, sɛdeɛ Awurade aka ato hɔ no.
39 Kana zviri zvimwe zvakaitika panguva yokutonga kwaAhabhu, zvichisanganisira zvose zvaakaita, muzinda waakavaka nenyanga dzenzou, namaguta aakavaka, hazvina kunyorwa here mubhuku renhoroondo dzegore negore dzamadzimambo eIsraeri?
Nsɛm a ɛfa Ahab ahennie ho ne asonse ahemfie ho asɛm ne nkuro a ɔkyekyeree nyinaa no, wɔatwerɛ agu Israel Ahemfo Abakɔsɛm Nwoma no mu.
40 Ahabhu akazorora namadzibaba ake. Ipapo Ahazia mwanakomana wake akamutevera paumambo.
Ɛberɛ a Ahab wuiɛ no, wɔsiee no wɔ nʼagyanom mu. Na ne babarima Ahasia dii nʼadeɛ sɛ ɔhene.
41 Jehoshafati mwanakomana waAsa akava mambo weJudha mugore rechina raAhabhu, mambo weIsraeri.
Asa babarima Yehosafat bɛdii Yuda so ɛberɛ a na Ahab adi adeɛ wɔ Israel ne mfeɛ ɛnan so no.
42 Jehoshafati akanga ane makore makumi matatu namashanu okuberekwa paakava mambo, uye akatonga muJerusarema kwamakore makumi maviri namashanu. Zita ramai vake raiva Azubha, mwanasikana waShirihi.
Ɔdii adeɛ no, na wadi mfeɛ aduasa enum, na ɔdii adeɛ Yerusalem mfirinhyia aduonu enum. Na ne maame din de Asuba a ɔyɛ Silhi babaa.
43 Pazvinhu zvose akafamba munzira dzababa vake Asa uye haana kurasika achibva padziri; akaita zvakanga zvakanaka pamberi paJehovha. Zvisinei, nzvimbo dzakakwirira hadzina kubviswa, uye vanhu vakaramba vachipa zvibayiro uye vachipisa zvinonhuhwira ikoko.
Na Yehosafat yɛ ɔhene papa a ɔdii nʼagya Asa anammɔn akyi. Ɔyɛɛ adeɛ a ɛsɔ Awurade ani. Nanso, nʼahennie mu no, wantumi ammubu abosonnan enti, nnipa kɔɔ so bɔɔ afɔdeɛ, hyee aduhwam wɔ hɔ.
44 Jehoshafati akanga ane rugarewo namambo weIsraeri.
Yehosafat ne Israelhene tenaa ase asomdwoeɛ mu.
45 Kana zviri zvimwe zvakaitika panguva yokutonga kwaJehoshafati, zvinhu zvaakaita nehondo dzaakarwa, hazvina kunyorwa here mubhuku renhoroondo dzegore negore dzamadzimambo eJudha?
Nsɛm a ɛfa Yehosafat ahennie ho nkaeɛ no, faako a ne tumi kɔduruiɛ ne ako a ɔdiiɛ no nyinaa, wɔatwerɛ agu Yuda Ahemfo Abakɔsɛm Nwoma no mu.
46 Akabvisa panyika zvifeve zvavarume zvakanga zvasara kunyange mushure menguva yokutonga kwababa vake Asa.
Ɔpamoo abosomfie so adwamanfoɔ a na wɔgu so bɔ adwaman, firi nʼagya Asa berɛ so no nyinaa.
47 Panguva iyoyo muEdhomu makanga musina mambo; maitongwa nejinda.
Saa ɛberɛ no, na ɔhene nni Edom gye kuro no sohwɛfoɔ nko.
48 Zvino Jehoshafati akavaka chitsama chezvikepe chokutakurisa zvinhu zvokutengesa kuti zviende kuOfiri kundotora goridhe, asi hazvina kuenda nokuti zvakaparara paEzioni Gebheri.
Yehosafat yɛɛ adwadihyɛn bebree sɛ ɛnkɔ Ofir nkɔpɛ sikakɔkɔɔ. Nanso, ahyɛn no antumi anyɛ adwuma, ɛsɛee wɔ Esion-Geber.
49 Panguva iyoyo Ahazia mwanakomana waAhabhu akati kuna Jehoshafati, “Regai varanda vangu vaende navaranda venyu nezvikepe zvenyu.” Asi Jehoshafati akaramba.
Saa ɛberɛ no, Ahab babarima Ahasia susuu ho kyerɛɛ Yehosafat sɛ, “Ma me mmarima ne wo mmarima nkɔ ɛpo so akwan nsrahwɛ.” Nanso, Yehosafat ampene so.
50 Ipapo Jehoshafati akazorora namadzibaba ake akavigwa pavakavigwa muguta raDhavhidhi baba vake. Ipapo Jehoramu mwanakomana wake akamutevera paumambo.
Yehosafat wuiɛ no, wɔsiee no nʼagyanom nkyɛn wɔ Dawid kurom. Ne babarima Yehoram na ɔdii nʼadeɛ sɛ ɔhene.
51 Ahazia mwanakomana waAhabhu akava mambo weIsraeri muSamaria mugore regumi namanomwe raJehoshafati mambo weJudha, uye akatonga Israeri kwamakore maviri.
Ahab babarima Ahasia hyɛɛ aseɛ dii Israel so ɛberɛ a na Yehosafat adi adeɛ mfeɛ dunson wɔ Yuda. Ɔdii adeɛ Samaria mfeɛ mmienu.
52 Akaita zvakaipa pamberi paJehovha nokuti akafamba munzira dzababa namai vake nomunzira dzaJerobhoamu mwanakomana waNebhati, akaita kuti Israeri iite chivi.
Na ɔfaa nʼagya ne ne maame ne Nebat babarima Yeroboam anammɔn so, somm ahoni, yɛɛ bɔne wɔ Awurade ani so.
53 Akashandira uye akanamata Bhaari, akaita kuti Jehovha, Mwari weIsraeri atsamwe, sezvakanga zvaitwa nababa vake.
Ɔsomm Baal, sɔree no, nam so fuu Awurade, Israel Onyankopɔn, bo sɛdeɛ nʼagya yɛeɛ no.
