14 Josia akaputsa-putsa shongwe dzamatombo aiera akatema matanda aAshera akafukidza nzvimbo dzacho namapfupa avanhu.
Yosia dwerɛɛ afadum kronkron no nyinaa, bubuu Asera afɔrebukyia no. Ɔde nnipa nnompe guguu ne nyinaa so.
15 Pamusoro paizvozvo, akaparadza aritari paBheteri nenzvimbo yakakwirira yakaitwa naJerobhoamu mwanakomana waNebhati, uyo akaita kuti Israeri itadze, kunyange aritari iyoyo nenzvimbo yakakwirira akazviputsa. Akapisa nzvimbo yakakwirira akaikuya kuita upfu, uye akapisawo danda raAshera.
Ɔhene no sane bubuu afɔrebukyia a ɛwɔ Bet-El abosonnan a Nebat babarima Yeroboam yɛeɛ ɛberɛ a ɔdii Israel anim, de wɔn kɔɔ bɔne mu no. Yosia yam aboɔ no, ma ɛdanee mfuturo, hyee Asera dua no.

Ɛberɛ a Yosia retoto nʼani no, ɔhunuu damena pii wɔ kokoɔ no nkyɛnmu. Ɔhyɛɛ sɛ wɔntu nnompe no, na ɔhyee ne nyinaa wɔ afɔrebukyia a ɛwɔ Bet-El no so, de guu afɔrebukyia no ho fi. Yei siiɛ sɛdeɛ Awurade nam Onyankopɔn onipa so ahyɛ no, ɛberɛ a Yeroboam kɔgyinaa afɔrebukyia no ho wɔ afahyɛ da no. Afei Yosia danee ne ho hwɛɛ Onyankopɔn onipa a ɔhyɛɛ yeinom nyinaa ho nkɔm no damena.
17 Mambo akabvunza akati, “Ko, shongwe yeguva yandinoona iyo ndeyani?” Varume vomuguta vakati, “Ndiyo inoratidza guva romunhu waMwari akabva kuJudha akaprofita pamusoro pearitari yeBheteri nezvinhu izvi zvamaita kwairi.”
Yosia bisaa sɛ, “Nkaeɛdum bɛn na ɛwɔ nohoa no?” Na nnipa a wɔwɔ kuro no mu ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Ɛyɛ Onyankopɔn onipa no a ɔfiri Yuda a ɔhyɛɛ nkɔm faa dwuma a woadi seesei wɔ afɔrebukyia a ɛwɔ Bet-El ho no ɔboda.”
18 Iye akati, “Regai azorore. Ngakurege kuva nomunhu anokanganisa mapfupa ake.” Naizvozvo vakarega mapfupa ake pamwe chete neomuprofita akanga abva kuSamaria.
Yosia buaa sɛ, “Momma no nwɔ hɔ. Obiara mmfa ne nsa nka ne nnompe no.” Ɛno enti, wɔanhye ne nnompe no anaa odiyifoɔ akɔkoraa a ɔfiri Samaria no deɛ nso.
19 Josia akaita zvimwe chetezvo sezvaakanga aita paBheteri akabvisa uye akashatisa temberi dzose dzapamatunhu akakwirira dzakanga dzavakwa namadzimambo eIsraeri mumaguta eSamaria, akanga atsamwisa Jehovha,
Na Yosia bubuu abosonnan no a ɛwɔ Samaria no, sɛdeɛ ɔyɛɛ wɔ Bet-El no. Israel ahemfo ahodoɔ bi na wɔsisiiɛ de hyɛɛ Awurade abufuo.
20 Josia akauraya vaprista vose vokumatunhu akakwirira pamusoro pearitari uye akapisirapo mapfupa avanhu. Ipapo akabva adzokera kuJerusarema.
Ɔkunkumm asɔreeɛ so abosomfoɔ no wɔ wɔn ankasa afɔrebukyia so, na ɔhyee nnipa nnompe wɔ afɔrebukyia ahodoɔ no so, de guu ho fi. Akyire yi, ɔsane kɔɔ Yerusalem.
21 Mambo akarayira vanhu vose akati, “Itirai Jehovha Mwari wenyu Pasika sezvazvakanyorwa muBhuku iri reSungano.”
Ɔhene Yosia hyɛɛ nnipa no nyinaa sɛ, “Ɛsɛ sɛ modi Twam Afahyɛ ma Awurade, mo Onyankopɔn, sɛdeɛ wɔatwerɛ wɔ Apam Nwoma mu no.”
22 Hakuna kumbova nepasika yakadai kubvira pamazuva avatongi vakatungamirira Israeri kana pamazuva amadzimambo avaIsraeri, namadzimambo eJudha.
Ɛfiri ɛberɛ a atemmufoɔ dii Israel so mfeɛ bebree a atwam wɔ Israel ne Yuda ahemfo so no, wɔnnii Twam Afahyɛ no bi saa da.
23 Asi mugore regumi namasere raMambo Josia, pasika iyi yakaitirwa Jehovha muJerusarema.
Ɛberɛ a ɔhene Yosia dii mfeɛ dunwɔtwe wɔ akonnwa so no na wɔdii saa Twam Afahyɛ yi wɔ Yerusalem maa Awurade.
24 Pamusoro paizvozvo, Josia akabvisa masvikiro ose navavuki, navaiita zvemidzimu, nezvifananidzo nezvimwe zvose zvinonyangadza zvaionekwa muJudha nomuJerusarema. Akaita izvi kuti azadzise zvaidikanwa nomurayiro wakanga wakanyorwa mubhuku rakanga rakawanikwa nomuprista Hirikia mutemberi yaJehovha.
Yosia tɔre asamanfrɛfoɔ ne adunsifoɔ ne afie mu anyame ne ahonisom biara ase wɔ Yerusalem ne Yuda asase so baabiara. Ɔyɛɛ saa de dii mmara a wɔatwerɛ wɔ nwoma mmobɔeɛ a ɔsɔfoɔ Hilkia kɔhunuu wɔ Awurade Asɔredan mu no so.
25 Hapana kumbova namambo akaita saJosia kuna vakamutangira kana vakamutevera, akatendeukira kuna Jehovha nomwoyo wake wose, nomweya wake wose, uye nesimba rake rose, sezvaakaita achitevera Murayiro wose waMozisi.
Ɔhene biara mmaeɛ a ɔte sɛ Yosia a ɔde nʼakoma, ne kra ne nʼahoɔden ama Awurade na ɔnam so adi Mose mmara nyinaa so. Na ɔhene biara nso mmaeɛ a ɔte sɛ ɔno.
26 Kunyange zvakadaro, Jehovha haana kushanduka pakupisa kwehasha dzake dzinotyisa, dzaipisira Judha nokuda kwezvose zvakaitwa naManase achimutsamwisa.
Nanso, yei nyinaa akyi no, Awurade abufuo no dɛre tiaa Yuda, ɛsiane bɔne akɛseɛ a Ɔhene Manase yɛeɛ no. Ɛno enti, wanyi nʼabufuhyeɛ no amfiri wɔn so.
27 Naizvozvo Jehovha akati, “Ndichabvisawo Judha pamberi pangu sokubvisa kwandakaita Israeri, uye ndicharamba Jerusarema, guta randakasarudza, netemberi iyi, yandakataura pamusoro payo ndichiti, ‘Zita rangu richagarapo.’”
Awurade kaa sɛ, “Mɛsɛe Yuda, sɛdeɛ mesɛee Israel no. Mɛpam nnipa no afiri mʼanim, na mapo me kuropɔn Yerusalem ne Asɔredan a anka ɛsɛ sɛ wɔhyɛ me din animuonyam wɔ mu no.”
28 Kana zviri zvimwe zvakaitika pakutonga kwaJosia, nezvose zvaakaita, hazvina kunyorwa here mubhuku renhoroondo dzamadzimambo eJudha?
Yosia ahennie ho asɛm nkaeɛ ne dwuma a ɔdiiɛ nyinaa no, wɔatwerɛ agu Yuda Ahemfo Abakɔsɛm Nwoma no mu.
29 Josia paakanga ari mambo, Faro Neko mambo weIjipiti akaenda kuRwizi Yufuratesi kuti andobatsira mambo weAsiria. Mambo Josia akaenda kundorwisana naye, asi Neko akamuona akamuuraya paMegidho.

Ɔyɛɛ bɔne wɔ Awurade ani so, sɛdeɛ nʼagyanom yɛeɛ no pɛpɛɛpɛ.
33 Faro Neko akamusunga nengetani paRibhira munyika yeHamati kuti asatonga muJerusarema, uye akaisa mutero pamusoro peJudha wamatarenda zana esirivha netarenda regoridhe.

Afei, Farao Neko de Eliakim a ɔyɛ Yosia babarima, dii adeɛ, ma ɔsii nʼagya ananmu. Ɔsesaa Eliakim din frɛɛ no Yehoiakim. Wɔde Yehoahas kɔɔ Misraim sɛ odeduani, na ɔwuu wɔ hɔ.
35 Jehoyakimi akapa Faro Neko sirivha negoridhe sezvaakanga areva. Kuti aite izvozvo, akaripisa vanhu vomunyika imomo mutero achitora sirivha negoridhe kubva kuvanhu venyika maererano nezvavakanga vatarirwa.
Sɛdeɛ ɛbɛyɛ a ɔbɛnya dwetɛ ne sikakɔkɔɔ toɔ a Farao Neko regye no, Yehoiakim gyegyee akwabrantoɔ firii Yudafoɔ nkyɛn. Obiara tuaa sɛdeɛ nʼahonya teɛ.
