2 Nyakati 18
1 Basi, Yehoshafati alikuwa na mali nyingi sana na heshima. Naye akafanya urafiki na Ahabu kwa mwanawe kumwoa binti wa Ahabu.
Hagi Jehosafati'a tusi feno ne' nemanige'za ra agi nemizageno, agra Ahapu mofa nemofonte ara erinemino, Ahapu'enema tragoteno mani'nia kea huhagerafi'ne.
2 Baada ya miaka kadhaa akashuka kumtembelea Ahabu huko Samaria. Ahabu akachinja ngʼombe na kondoo wengi kwa ajili yake na watu aliokuwa amefuatana nao. Kisha Ahabu akamshawishi Yehoshafati kukwea pamoja naye ili kuishambulia Ramoth-Gileadi.
Hagi mago'a kafu evutegeno, Jehosafati'a Ahapu ome kenaku Sameria kumate vigeno Ahapu'a rama'a sipisipi afutamine bulimakao afutamine aheno Jehosafatine, agri'enema vaza vahetmina ne'zana krezamente'ne. Ana nehuno Ahapu'a Ramot-Gileati vahe'ma agranema eme tragomate'nageno ha' ome huzmantesigu Jehosafetina masavenke asami'ne.
3 Ahabu mfalme wa Israeli akamuuliza Yehoshafati mfalme wa Yuda, “Je, utakwenda pamoja nami kupigana dhidi ya Ramoth-Gileadi?” Yehoshafati akamjibu mfalme wa Israeli, “Mimi ni kama wewe, watu wangu ni kama watu wako, farasi wangu ni kama farasi wako. Tutakuwa pamoja nawe vitani.”
Israeli kini ne' Ahapu'a Juda kini ne' Jehosafatina antahigeno, Nagri'enena vananketa Ramot-Gileati kumate vahera hara ome huzmantegahu'o? higeno kenona huno, Nagrane sondia vahe'nimozanena kagri vahe mani'nonankita, tagra amne kagrira ome kaza huta hara hugahune hu'ne.
4 Lakini Yehoshafati pia akamwambia mfalme wa Israeli, “Kwanza tafuta shauri la Bwana.”
Hianagi Jehosafeti'a huno, Kotazana amama ha'ma hunaku'ma nehu'azana Ra Anumzamo'a na'ane hugahifi antahigeta keteta'e huno Israeli vahe kini ne' Ahapuna asami'ne.
5 Kwa hiyo mfalme wa Israeli akawaleta pamoja manabii wanaume wapatao mia nne, akawauliza, “Je, twende vitani dhidi ya Ramoth-Gileadi, au niache?” Wakajibu, “Naam, nenda kwa kuwa Mungu ataiweka Ramoth-Gileadi mkononi mwa mfalme.”
Anage higeno Israeli vahe kini ne' Ahapu'a 400'a kasnampa vahetami zamavare atru huteno amanage huno zamasami'ne, Ramot-Gileati vahera hara ome huzmantenumpi, ome huozmante'nune? Anage'ma hige'za zamagra hu'za, Anumzamo'a kini ne'moka kazampi zmavrentegahianki, marerinka ome hara huzmanto hu'za hu'naze.
6 Lakini Yehoshafati akauliza, “Je, hayuko nabii wa Bwana hapa ambaye tunaweza kumuuliza?”
Hianagi Jehosafati'a mago'ene huno, Ra Anumzamofo kasnampa vahera ama'age mani'nazafi, mago'a mani'nazagu zmantahigegahune huno hu'ne.
7 Mfalme wa Israeli akamjibu Yehoshafati, “Bado yupo mtu mmoja ambaye kupitia yeye twaweza kumuuliza shauri la Bwana, lakini namchukia kwa sababu huwa hatabiri jambo lolote jema kunihusu mimi, lakini kila mara hunitabiria mabaya tu. Yeye ni Mikaya mwana wa Imla.” Yehoshafati akajibu, “Mfalme hapaswi kusema hivyo.”
Anage higeno'a, Israeli vahe kini ne' Ahapu'a huno, Mago kasnampa nera Imla nemofo Mikaia mani'neankita antahigenunkeno, Anumzamofo avesira antahigeno kegahie. Hianagi Imala nemofo Mikaiana tusi navaresra hunentoa kasnampa ne' mani'ne. Na'ankure agra kasnampa kema hiana, nagri'ma nazeri havizahu kege nehie. Higeno Jehosafeti'a huno, Kini ne'moka, e'inahu kea osunka atregeno agra na'ane hugahifi antahimneno.
8 Kwa hiyo mfalme wa Israeli akamwita mmoja wa maafisa wake na kusema, “Mlete Mikaya mwana wa Imla mara moja.”
Anage higeno Israeli vahe kini ne' Ahapu'a eri'za vahe'a hunteno, Ame hunka Imla ne'mofo Mikaiana ome avrenka eno.
9 Wakiwa wamevalia majoho yao ya kifalme, mfalme wa Israeli na Yehoshafati mfalme wa Yuda walikuwa wameketi juu ya viti vyao vya kifalme katika sakafu ya kupuria, kwenye ingilio la lango la Samaria, pamoja na manabii wote wakiwa wakitabiri mbele yao.
Hanki Israeli kini ne' Ahapu'ene Juda kini ne' Jehosafatikea kini vahe zaza kukena huke tra'znire Sameria kuma kafante witi akru neharazare mani'nake'za, zamavuga ana kasnampa vahetmimo'za kasnampa kea hu'naze.
10 Wakati huu Sedekia mwana wa Kenaana alikuwa ametengeneza pembe za chuma, akatangaza, “Hivi ndivyo Bwana asemavyo, ‘Kwa hizi pembe utawapiga na kuwarudisha Waaramu nyuma mpaka wameangamizwa.’”
Hagi Kenana nemofo Zedekai'a ainireti pazivetamina tro huteno amanage hu'ne, Ra Anumzamo'a amanage hie, Siria vahera ama'na pazivetaminteti zamahenka zamaretufenka nevunka, ome zamahe fri vagaregahane hie.
11 Manabii wengine wote walikuwa wanatabiri kitu hicho hicho, wakisema, “Ishambulie Ramoth-Gileadi na uwe mshindi. Kwa kuwa Bwana ataitia mkononi mwa mfalme.”
Anage hige'za mika kasnampa vahe'mo'za magozahu kasnampa kege nehu'za amanage hu'naze, marerinka Ramot-Giliati vahera hara ome huzmagatero. Na'ankure Ra Anumzamo'a kini ne'moka kazampi zamavarentegahie.
12 Mjumbe aliyekuwa amekwenda kumwita Mikaya akamwambia, “Tazama, manabii wote kama mtu mmoja wanatabiri ushindi kwa mfalme. Neno lako na likubaliane na lao, nawe unene mema kuhusu mfalme.”
Hagi Mikaiama asminaku'ma via eri'za ne'mo'a, Mikaiana asmino, ko, mika kasnampa vahe'mo'za Ahapuna knare kasnampa kegege'za eme asmi'naze. Hanki menina antahio, mago'a kasnampa vahe'mo'zama hu'nazankna hunka kini ne'moka hara agateregahane hunka ome asmio.
13 Lakini Mikaya akasema, “Hakika kama Bwana aishivyo, nitamwambia kile tu Bwana atakachoniambia.”
Hianagi Mikaia'a amanage hu'ne, Nagra kasefa huno mani'nea Ra Anumzamo'ma nasami'nea kege'za hugahue.
14 Alipofika, mfalme akamuuliza, “Mikaya, je, twende vitani dhidi ya Ramoth-Gileadi au niache?” Akamjibu, “Shambulia na ushinde, kwa kuwa watatiwa mkononi mwako.”
Hagi Mikaia'ma kini ne' Ahapunte'ma ehanatigeno'a Ahapu'a antahigeno, Mikaiaga Ramot-Gileati kumate vahera hara ome huzmantegahufi hara ome huozmantegahue huno Ahapu'a antahigegeno, Mikaia'a huno, Vunka hara ome huzmanto. Na'ankure Ra Anumzamo'a ana maka vahera kazampi zamavarentegahie.
15 Mfalme akamwambia, “Je, ni mara ngapi nitakuapisha ili usiniambie kitu chochote ila kweli tu kwa jina la Bwana?”
Hianagi kini ne' Ahapu'a Mikaiana asmino, Nama'a zupa Ra Anumzamofo agifina tamage hunka huvempa hunka nasamio nehugenka, kagra havige kasnampa kea nehane?
16 Ndipo Mikaya akajibu, “Niliona Israeli wote wametawanyika vilimani kama kondoo wasio na mchungaji, naye Bwana akasema, ‘Watu hawa hawana bwana. Mwache kila mmoja aende nyumbani kwa amani.’”
Huno higeno Mikaia'a anage hu'ne, Israeli vahe'mo'za kvazmimo omani sipisipimozama nehaza hu'za agonaramimpina panini hu'za vu'za eza nehazage'na ke'noe. Ana nehazageno Ra Anumzamo'a huno, Kvazmia omani'neanki, zamatrege'za nozmirega zamarimpa frune vu'za e'za hiho hu'ne.
17 Mfalme wa Israeli akamwambia Yehoshafati, “Sikukuambia kwamba huwa hatabiri jambo lolote jema kunihusu bali mabaya tu?”
Anagema higeno'a Israeli kini ne'mo'a, Jehosafatina asmino, ko'ma kasmi'na ama ne'mo'a knare kasanampa kea osugahianki, nagri'ma nazeri havizahu kasnampa kege hugahie hu'na kasami'noe.
18 Mikaya akaendelea, “Kwa hiyo lisikie neno la Bwana: Nilimwona Bwana ameketi juu ya kiti chake cha enzi pamoja na jeshi lote la mbinguni likiwa limesimama upande wa kulia na wa kushoto.
Hagi anagema nehakeno'a Mikaia'a huno, Ra Anumzamofonkea antahio, Ra Anumzamo'a kini tra'are monafina mani'negeno, maka monafinka ankero vahe'mo'za Anumzamofona tamaga kazigane, hoga kaziganena mani'nazage'na ke'noe.
19 Naye Bwana akasema, ‘Ni nani atakayemshawishi Ahabu, mfalme wa Israeli, ili aishambulie Ramoth-Gileadi na kukiendea kifo chake huko?’ “Mmoja akapendekeza hili na mwingine lile.
Ra Anumzamo'a amanage hu'ne, Iza Israeli kini ne' Ahapuna ome revatga hanigeno Ramot-Gileatia marerinige'za ahegahaze? Anage higeno magoke magokemo'a agra'a antahintahi'a huama hutere hu'ne.
20 Mwishoni, roho akajitokeza, akasimama mbele za Bwana na kusema, ‘Nitamshawishi.’ “Bwana akauliza, ‘Kwa njia gani?’
Anage hazageno, mago avamu'mo'a Ra Anumzamofo avuga eotino amanage hu'ne, Nagra ome revatga hugahue higeno, Ra Anumzamo'a huno inankna hunka ome revatga hugahane? huno antahigegeno,
21 “Akasema, ‘Nitakwenda na kuwa roho ya uongo katika vinywa vya manabii wake wote.’ “Bwana akasema, ‘Utafanikiwa katika kumshawishi. Nenda ukafanye hivyo.’

22 “Kwa hiyo sasa Bwana ameweka roho ya kudanganya ndani ya vinywa vya hawa manabii wako wote. Bwana ameamuru maafa kwa ajili yako.”
E'ina hu'negu menina antahio, Ra Anumzamo'a havigema hu vahe'ma revatga hu avamu maka kasnampa vaheka'aramimofo zamagipina ante'ne. Na'ankure Ra Anumzamo'a kagrikura hazenke erigahane huno hunte'ne.
23 Kisha Sedekia mwana wa Kenaana akatoka na kumpiga Mikaya kofi usoni. Akauliza, “Huyo Roho kutoka kwa Bwana alipita njia gani alipotoka kwangu ili kusema nawe?”
Anage'ma higeno'a, Kenana ne'mofo Zedekaia'a eno Mikaiana ameragente eme rupro hunemino amanage hu'ne, Inankna huno Ra Anumzamofo Avamu'mo'a nagrira natreno kagritega vuno nanekea ome kasami'ne?
24 Mikaya akajibu, “Utagundua siku hiyo utakapokwenda kujificha kwenye chumba cha ndani.”

25 Kisha mfalme wa Israeli akaagiza, “Mchukueni na mkamrudishe kwa Amoni mtawala wa mji na kwa Yoashi mwana wa mfalme.
Anagema higeno'a, Israeli vahe kini ne' Ahapu'a huno, Mikaiana avreta rankumama kegavama hu'nea gavana ne' Amoninte'ene nenamofo Joasainte vuta,

27 Mikaya akasema, “Kama utarudi salama, basi Bwana hajanena kupitia kwangu.” Kisha akaongeza kusema, “Zingatieni maneno yangu, enyi watu wote!”
Anante Mikaia'a amanage hu'ne, Hapinti'ma onkahesagenkama kagrama knare hunka esanke'na Ra Anumzamo'a nagripina huvazino kasnampa kea osu'ne hu'na hugahue. Hagi ama nanekea maka vahe'mota antahio!
28 Basi mfalme wa Israeli na Yehoshafati mfalme wa Yuda wakaenda Ramoth-Gileadi.
Higeno Israeli vahe kini ne' Ahapu'ene Juda vahe kini ne' Jehosafatikea sondia vahe'zania zamavareke Ramot-Gileati mareri'na'e.
29 Mfalme wa Israeli akamwambia Yehoshafati, “Nitaingia vitani nikiwa nimejibadilisha, lakini wewe uvae majoho yako ya kifalme.” Kwa hiyo mfalme wa Israeli akajibadilisha na kwenda vitani.
Hagi Israeli vahe kini ne' Ahapu'a amanage huno Jehosafatinkura hu'ne, Nagra amne vahe kna hu'na ha' kukena hu'na hapi ufregahue. Hanki kagra kini vahe kukena hunka vuo, huno nesmino agra amne kukena huno hapina ufre'ne.
30 Wakati huu, mfalme wa Aramu alikuwa amewaagiza majemadari thelathini na wawili wa magari ya vita, “Msipigane na yeyote, mdogo au mkubwa, isipokuwa mfalme wa Israeli.”
Hagi Siria vahe kini ne'mo'a, karisifi maniza ha'ma nehaza sondia vahete kva vahetminkura huno, Ruga'a vahe'enena hara osuta, Israeli kini ne'ke'za hara hunteho.
31 Wakati wale majemadari wa magari ya vita walipomwona Yehoshafati, wakafikiri, “Hakika huyu ndiye mfalme wa Israeli.” Kwa hiyo wakageuka ili wamshambulie, lakini Yehoshafati akapiga kelele, naye Bwana akamsaidia. Mungu akawaondoa kwake,
Anage'ma hige'za nevu'za Jehosafatima ome nege'za Israeli vahe kini nere hu'za nehu'za rukrahe hu'za avariri'naze. Hianagi Jehosafati'a kezatino, Ra Anumzamoka naza huo higeno, Anumzamo'a aza huno zamazeri rukrahe hige'za atre'za rurega vu'naze.
32 wale majemadari wakaona kwamba hakuwa mfalme wa Israeli nao wakaacha kumfuatilia.

33 Lakini mtu fulani akavuta upinde pasipo lengo na kumpiga mfalme wa Israeli katikati ya kiungio cha mavazi yake ya chuma, mfalme akamwambia mwendesha gari lake, “Geuza gari na uniondoe mimi katika mapigano, nimejeruhiwa.”
Hianagi mago sondia ne'mo'a fatufatu huno kevea ahetreno nevuno, mago kevema ahetreana nozame ahehe kna ha kukenamofo kankmumpinti aheraponeno Israeli vahe kini nera amimizafi ahe'ne.

34 Vita vikaendelea mchana kutwa, naye mfalme wa Israeli akajitegemeza ndani ya gari lake kuwaelekea Waaramu hadi jioni. Basi jioni yake akafa.
