2 Madzimambo 14
1 Mugore rechipiri raJehoashi mwanakomana waJehoahazi mambo weIsraeri, Amazia mwanakomana waJoashi mambo weJudha akatanga kutonga.
In the second year of Joash son of Joahaz king of Israel began Amaziah the son of Joash king of Judah to reign.
2 Akanga ava namakore makumi maviri namashanu paakava mambo, uye akatonga muJerusarema kwamakore makumi maviri namapfumbamwe. Zita ramai vake rainzi Jehoadhini vakanga vachibva muJerusarema.
He was twenty-five years old when he began to reign; and he reigned twenty-nine years in Jerusalem: and his mother's name was Jehoaddin of Jerusalem.
3 Akaita zvakanaka pamberi paJehovha, asi kwete sezvakaitwa nababa vake Dhavhidhi. Pazvinhu zvose akatevera muenzaniso wababa vake Joashi.
He did that which was right in the eyes of the LORD, yet not like David his father: he did according to all that Joash his father had done.
4 Kunyange zvakadaro matunhu akakwirira haana kubviswa, vanhu vakaramba vachipa zvibayiro nokupisa zvinonhuhwira ikoko.
However the high places were not taken away: the people still sacrificed and burnt incense in the high places.
5 Mushure mokunge umambo hwanyatsosimba mumaoko ake, akauraya vabati vaya vakauraya baba vake iye mambo.
It happened, as soon as the kingdom was established in his hand, that he killed his servants who had slain the king his father:
6 Asi haana kuuraya vanakomana vavaurayi, sezvazvakanyorwa mubhuku romurayiro waMozisi sezvakarayira Jehovha paakati, “Madzibaba haazourayiwi nokuda kwavana vavo, uye vana havaurayiwi nokuda kwamadzibaba avo mumwe nomumwe anofanira kufira zvivi zvake.”
but the children of the murderers he did not put to death; according to that which is written in the scroll of the law of Moses, as the LORD commanded, saying, "The fathers shall not be put to death for the children, nor the children be put to death for the fathers; but every man shall die for his own sin."
7 Ndiye akakunda gumi rezviuru zvavaEdhomu muMupata woMunyu uye akapamba Sera muhondo, akaritumidza kuti Jokiteeri, rinova zita raro kusvikira nhasi.
He killed of Edom in the Valley of Salt ten thousand, and took Sela by war, and called its name Joktheel, to this day.
8 Ipapo Amazia akatuma nhume kuna Jehoashi mwanakomana waJehoahazi, mwanakomana waJehu, mambo weIsraeri, akati, “Uya tionane.”
Then Amaziah sent messengers to Jehoash, the son of Jehoahaz son of Jehu, king of Israel, saying, "Come, let us look one another in the face."
9 Asi Jehoashi mambo weIsraeri akapindura Amazia mambo weJudha akati, “Rukato rwomuRebhanoni rwakatuma nhume kumusidhari womuRebhanoni, rukati, ‘Ipa mwanasikana wako kuti awanikwe nomwanakomana wangu.’ Ipapo mhuka yesango yomuRebhanoni yakauyapo ikatsika-tsika rukato netsoka dzayo.
Jehoash the king of Israel sent to Amaziah king of Judah, saying, "The thistle that was in Lebanon sent to the cedar that was in Lebanon, saying, 'Give your daughter to my son as wife. Then a wild animal that was in Lebanon passed by, and trampled down the thistle.
10 Zvirokwazvo wakakunda Edhomu asi zvino wava kuzvikudza. Zvirumbidze hako pakukunda kwako, asi ugare kumba! Seiko wava kutsvaka bongozozo kuti uzviwisire pasi iwe pamwe chete neJudha?”
You have indeed struck Edom, and your heart has lifted you up. Enjoy the glory of it, and stay at home; for why should you meddle to your harm, that you should fall, even you, and Judah with you?'"
11 Kunyange zvakadaro, Amazia haana kuda kuteerera, naizvozvo Jehoashi mambo weIsraeri akamurwisa. Iye naAmazia mambo weJudha vakasangana paBheti Shemeshi muJudha.
But Amaziah would not listen. So Jehoash king of Israel went up; and he and Amaziah king of Judah looked one another in the face at Beth Shemesh, which belongs to Judah.
12 VaJudha vakakundwa navaIsraeri, murume mumwe nomumwe akatizira kumusha kwake.
Judah was defeated by Israel; and they fled every man to his tent.
13 Jehoashi mambo weIsraeri akabata Amazia mambo weJudha, mwanakomana waJoashi, mwanakomana waAhazia, paBheti Shemeshi. Ipapo Jehoashi akaenda kuJerusarema akandoputsa rusvingo rweJerusarema kubva kuSuo raEfuremu kusvikira paSuo repaKona chikamu chinosvika makubhiti mazana mana.
Jehoash king of Israel took Amaziah king of Judah, the son of Jehoash the son of Ahaziah, at Beth Shemesh, and came to Jerusalem, and broke down the wall of Jerusalem from the Ephraim Gate to the Corner Gate, six hundred eighty-nine feet.
14 Akatora goridhe rose nesirivha yose nemidziyo yose yakawanikwa iri mutemberi yaJehovha nomumatura omumuzinda wamambo. Akatorawo vasungwa ndokubva adzokera kuSamaria.
He took all the gold and silver, and all the vessels that were found in the house of the LORD, and in the treasures of the king's house, the hostages also, and returned to Samaria.
15 Zvino zvimwe zvokutonga kwaJehoashi, nezvaakaita uye kubudirira kwake, pamwe nokurwa kwake naAmazia mambo weJudha, hazvina kunyorwa here mubhuku renhoroondo dzamadzimambo eIsraeri?
Now the rest of the acts of Jehoash which he did, and his might, and how he fought with Amaziah king of Judah, aren't they written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?
16 Jehoashi akazorora namadzibaba ake akavigwa muSamaria pamwe chete namadzimambo eIsraeri. Jerobhoamu mwanakomana wake akamutevera paumambo.
Jehoash slept with his fathers, and was buried in Samaria with the kings of Israel; and Jeroboam his son reigned in his place.
17 Amazia mwanakomana waJoashi mambo weJudha akararama kwamakore gumi namashanu mushure mokufa kwaJehoashi mwanakomana waJehoahazi mambo weIsraeri.
Amaziah the son of Joash king of Judah lived after the death of Jehoash son of Jehoahaz king of Israel fifteen years.
18 Zvino zvimwe zvakaitwa pakutonga kwaAmazia, hazvina kunyorwa here mubhuku renhoroondo dzamadzimambo eJudha?
Now the rest of the acts of Amaziah, aren't they written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?
19 Vakaita rangano yakaipa pamusoro pake muJerusarema, iye akatizira kuRakishi, asi vakatuma varume vakamutevera kuRakishi vakamuurayira ikoko.
They made a conspiracy against him in Jerusalem; and he fled to Lachish: but they sent after him to Lachish, and killed him there.
20 Akadzoswa namabhiza vakamuviga muJerusarema pamwe chete namadzibaba ake, muGuta raDhavhidhi.
They brought him on horses; and he was buried at Jerusalem with his fathers in the City of David.
21 Ipapo vanhu vose veJudha vakatora Azaria, akanga ane makore gumi namatanhatu, vakamuita mambo panzvimbo yababa vake Amazia.
All the people of Judah took Azariah, who was sixteen years old, and made him king in the place of his father Amaziah.
22 Ndiye akavakazve Erati akaridzorera kuna Judha mushure mokunge Amazia azorora namadzibaba ake.
He built Eilat, and restored it to Judah, after that the king slept with his fathers.
23 Mugore regumi namashanu raAmazia mwanakomana waJoashi mambo weJudha, Jerobhoamu mwanakomana waJehoashi mambo weIsraeri akava mambo muSamaria, akatonga kwamakore makumi mana negore rimwe.
In the fifteenth year of Amaziah the son of Joash king of Judah, Jeroboam the son of Joash king of Israel began to reign in Samaria for forty-one years.
24 Akaita zvakaipa pamberi paJehovha akasatendeuka kubva kana pane chimwe chezvivi zvaJerobhoamu mwanakomana waNebhati, zvaakaita kuti Israeri iite.
He did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD: he did not depart from all the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, with which he made Israel to sin.
25 Ndiye akadzikazve miganhu yeIsraeri kubva paRebho Hamati kusvika kuGungwa reArabha, sezvakarehwa neshoko raJehovha, Mwari waIsraeri, rakataurwa kubudikidza nomuranda wake Jona mwanakomana waAmutai, muprofita wokuGati Hefa.
He restored the border of Israel from Lebo Hamath to the sea of the Arabah, according to the word of the LORD, the God of Israel, which he spoke by his servant Jonah the son of Amittai, the prophet, who was of Gath Hepher.
26 Nokuti Jehovha akanga aona kuti vanhu vose muIsraeri vaitambudzika zvakanyanya sei, vose nhapwa navakasununguka; pakanga pasina angabatsira.
For the LORD saw the affliction of Israel, that it was very bitter; for there was none shut up nor left at large, neither was there any helper for Israel.
27 Uye sezvo Jehovha akanga asina kumboti aizodzima zita raIsraeri kubva pasi pedenga, akavaponesa noruoko rwaJerobhoamu mwanakomana waJehoashi.
The LORD did not say that he would blot out the name of Israel from under the sky; but he saved them by the hand of Jeroboam the son of Joash.
28 Zvino zvimwe zvakaitwa pakutonga kwaJerobhoamu, nezvose zvaakaita, nokukunda kwake pakurwa, pamwe nokuti akadzorera sei Dhamasiko neHamati kuIsraeri, aimbova maguta eJudha, hazvina kunyorwa here mubhuku renhoroondo dzamadzimambo eIsraeri?
Now the rest of the acts of Jeroboam, and all that he did, and his might, how he warred, and how he recovered Damascus, and Hamath, which had belonged to Judah, for Israel, aren't they written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?
29 Jerobhoamu akazorora namadzibaba ake, madzimambo eIsraeri. Zekaria mwanakomana wake akamutevera paumambo.
And Jeroboam slept with his fathers, and he was buried in Samaria with the kings of Israel; and Zechariah his son reigned in his place.
