2 Ahemfo 19
1 Bere a ɔhene Hesekia tee eyinom no, osunsuan ne ntade mu, na ofuraa atweaatam, na ɔkɔɔ Awurade asɔredan mu.
Mfumu Hezekiya atamva zimenezi, anangʼamba zovala zake navala chiguduli ndipo analowa mʼNyumba ya Yehova.
2 Na ɔsomaa Eliakim a ɔhwɛ ahemfi ntotoe so, Sebna, a ɔyɛ ɔkyerɛwfo ne asɔfo akunini a wɔn nyinaa furafura atweaatam, kɔɔ Amos babarima Odiyifo Yesaia nkyɛn.
Iye anatuma Eliyakimu, woyangʼanira nyumba ya mfumu, Sebina mlembi wa bwalo ndi ansembe akuluakulu, onse atavala ziguduli, kwa mneneri Yesaya mwana wa Amozi.
3 Wɔka kyerɛɛ no se, “Sɛnea ɔhene Hesekia ka ni: Saa da yi yɛ ɔhaw, animka ne animguase da. Ayɛ te sɛ nea mmofra awo du so, na ahoɔden a wɔde bɛwo wɔn nni hɔ.
Iwo anamuwuza kuti, “Hezekiya akunena kuti, ‘Lero ndi tsiku lamavuto, lachilango ndi lamanyazi. Ife lero tili ngati mayi woyembekezera amene pofika nthawi yoti achire akupezeka kuti alibe mphamvu zoberekera.
4 Nanso ebia Awurade, mo Nyankopɔn ate sɛ Asiria nanmusini no regu Onyankopɔn teasefo no anim ase, na wɔbɛtwe nʼaso wɔ ne nsɛnkeka no ho. Enti bɔ mpae ma yɛn a yɛaka no!”
Mwina Yehova Mulungu wanu adzamva mawu onse a Rabusake amene mbuye wake, mfumu ya ku Asiriya anamutuma kudzanyoza Mulungu wamoyo, ndipo Mulunguyo adzamulanga chifukwa cha mawu amene Yehova Mulungu wanu wamva. Choncho pemphererani anthu otsala amene akanali ndi moyo.’”
5 Na ɔhene Hesekia mpanyimfo no kɔkaa ɔhene nkra no kyerɛɛ Yesaia,
Akuluakulu a Mfumu Hezekiya atafika kwa Yesaya,
6 na Yesaia buae se, “Ka kyerɛ wo wura se, ‘Sɛnea Awurade se ni: Mma abususɛm a Asiriahene asomafo no ka tiaa me no nhaw wo.
Yesaya anawawuza kuti, “Kawuzeni mbuye wanu kuti, ‘Yehova akunena kuti: Usachite mantha ndi zimene wamva, mawu amene nthumwi za mfumu ya ku Asiriya zandinyoza nawo Ine.
7 Muntie! Mede honhom bi rebɛhyɛ ne mu, sɛnea ɛbɛyɛ a sɛ ɔte asɛm bi a ɔbɛsan akɔ ne man mu na hɔ na mɛma wɔde afoa akum no.’”
Tamverani! Ine ndidzayika mwa mfumuyo mzimu wina kotero kuti akadzamva mphekesera ya nkhondo, adzabwerera ku dziko lake ndipo Ine ndidzachititsa kuti aphedwe ndi lupanga kwawo komweko.’”
8 Bere a ɔsahene no tee sɛ Asiriahene afi Lakis no, ɔsan nʼakyi kohuu sɛ ɔhene no ne Libna reko.
Rabusake atamva kuti mfumu ya ku Asiriya yachoka ku Lakisi, iye anabwerera mʼmbuyo ndipo anakapeza mfumu ikuchita nkhondo ndi mzinda wa Libina.
9 Ankyɛ, ɔhene Sanaherib nyaa nkra se, Etiopiahene Tirhaka adi asraafo anim, rebɛko atia no. Na ansa na ɔbɛsan akohyia asraafo no, ɔde saa nkra yi maa sɛ wɔmfa nkɔma Hesekia wɔ Yerusalem.
Nthawi imeneyi Senakeribu analandira uthenga wakuti Tirihaka, mfumu ya ku Kusi, akubwera kudzachita naye nkhondo. Choncho iye anatumanso amithenga kwa Hezekiya ndi mawu awa:
10 “Monka nkyerɛ Yudahene Hesekia se: Mma onyame a wode wo ho ato no so no nnaadaa mo nka se, ‘Wɔremfa Yerusalem mma Asiriahene.’
“Kawuzeni Hezekiya mfumu ya Yuda kuti: Usalole kuti Mulungu amene ukumudalira akupusitse ponena kuti, ‘Yerusalemu sadzaperekedwa mʼmanja mwa mfumu ya ku Asiriya.’
11 Moate nea Asiria ahemfo ayɛ amanaman no nyinaa. Wɔasɛe wɔn pasaa. Na mo de, wobegye mo ana?
Ndithu iwe unamva chimene mafumu a Asiriya anachita ku mayiko ena onse, kuti anawawononga kotheratu. Ndipo kodi iwe nʼkupulumuka?
12 Anyame a wɔwɔ aman a me nenanom sɛee wɔn no, aman te sɛ, Gosan, Haran, Resef ne Edenfo a na wɔwɔ Telasar no anyame gyee wɔn ana?
Kodi milungu ya mitundu imene makolo anga anayigonjetsa, milungu ya anthu a ku Gozani, Harani, Rezefi ndi Aedeni amene anali ku Teli Asara, inawapulumutsa?
13 Nsɛm bɛn na ɛtotoo Hamathene ne Arpadhene? Nsɛm bɛn nso na ɛtotoo Sefarwaim, Hena ne Iwa ahemfo?”
Kodi mafumu a Hamati, Aripadi ndi mafumu a mizinda ya Sefaravaimu, Hena ndi Iva, ali kuti?”
14 Hesekia nsa kaa krataa a abɔfo no de bae no, ɔkenkanee. Afei ɔforo kɔɔ Awurade asɔredan no mu kɔtrɛw mu wɔ Awurade anim.
Hezekiya analandira kalata kwa amithenga aja nayiwerenga. Pomwepo anapita ku Nyumba ya Yehova nayika kalatayo pamaso pa Yehova.
15 Na Hesekia bɔɔ mpae kyerɛɛ Awurade se, “Asafo Awurade, Israel Nyankopɔn a wɔasi wo hene wɔ Kerubim ntam. Wo nko ara na woyɛ Onyankopɔn wɔ asase so ahenni nyinaa so. Wo na wobɔɔ ɔsoro ne asase.
Ndipo Hezekiya anapemphera kwa Yehova nati, “Inu Yehova Mulungu wa Israeli, Inu amene mumakhala pa Akerubi, Inu nokha ndinu Mulungu wolamulira maufumu onse a dziko lapansi. Inu munalenga kumwamba ndi dziko lapansi.
16 Brɛ wʼaso ase, Awurade, na tie! Bue wʼani, Awurade, na hwɛ. Tie nsɛm a Sanaherib asoma de abɛsopa Onyankopɔn teasefo no.
Inu Yehova, tcherani khutu lanu ndipo mumve Yehova tsekulani maso anu ndipo muone, imvani mawu onse amene Senakeribu watumiza kunyoza Inu Mulungu wamoyo.
17 “Awurade, ɛyɛ nokware sɛ Asiria ahemfo asɛe aman yi nyinaa, sɛnea nkra no ka no.
“Inu Yehova, nʼzoonadi kuti mafumu a Asiriya anawononga mitundu iyi ndi mayiko awo.
18 Na wɔatow anyame a wɔwɔ saa aman yi so no agu gya mu, ahyew wɔn, efisɛ wɔnyɛ anyame, na mmom wɔyɛ nnua ne abo a nnipa de wɔn nsa ayɛ.
Iwo anaponya milungu yawo pa moto ndi kuyiwononga pakuti sinali milungu koma mitengo ndi miyala chabe, yopangidwa ndi anthu.
19 Afei, Awurade, yɛn Nyankopɔn, gye yɛn fi ne tumi ase, na ɛbɛma ahenni a ɛwɔ asase so nyinaa ahu sɛ wo nko ara, Awurade, na woyɛ Onyankopɔn.”
Ndipo tsopano Inu Yehova Mulungu wathu, tipulumutseni ndithu mʼdzanja lake, kuti maufumu onse a dziko lapansi adziwe kuti Inu nokha, Inu Yehova, ndinu Mulungu.”
20 Na Amos babarima Yesaia de saa nkra yi kɔmaa Hesekia se, “Sɛɛ na Awurade, Israel Nyankopɔn se: Esiane sɛ woabɔ me mpae afa Asiriahene Sanaherib ho nti,
Ndipo Yesaya mwana wa Amozi anatumiza uthenga kwa Hezekiya wakuti, “Yehova Mulungu wa Israeli akuti, ‘Ndamva pemphero lako lonena za Senakeribu mfumu ya ku Asiriya.’”
21 eyi ne asɛm a Awurade aka atia no: “‘Ɔbabeabun Sion sopa wo, na ɔserew wo. Ɔbabea Yerusalem di wo ho fɛw, na ɔwosow ne ti bere a woreguan.
Mawu amene Yehova wayankhula wotsutsana naye ndi awa: “Namwali wa Ziyoni akukunyoza ndi kukuseka iwe. Mwana wamkazi wa Yerusalemu akupukusa mutu wake kumbuyo kwako.
22 Hena na wugye di sɛ woyeyaw no, di ne ho fɛw nso? Hena na womaa wo nne so tiaa no na wohwɛɛ no ahantan so? Ɛyɛ Israel ɔkronkronni no!
Kodi iweyo wanyoza ndi kuchitira chipongwe yani? Kodi ndani amene wamufuwulira mawu ako ndi kumuyangʼana monyada? Wachitiratu izi Woyera wa Israeli!
23 Wonam wʼasomafo so adi Awurade ho fɛw. Na woaka se, “Me nteaseɛnam dodow nti maforo mmepɔw atenten. Yiw Lebanon mmepɔw a ɛwoware pa ara no. Matwitwa ne sida dua atenten no, ne nʼapepaw a ɛyɛ fɛ no agu fam. Madu ne mmepɔw a ɛwɔ akyirikyiri no so, ne ne kwaeberentuw mu.
Kudzera mwa amithenga ako wonyoza Ambuye. Ndipo wanena kuti, ‘Ndi magaleta ochuluka ndinakwera mapiri ataliatali, pa msonga za mapiri a Lebanoni. Ndigwetsa mitengo yake ya mkungudza yayitali kwambiri, mitengo yake ya payini yabwino kwambiri. Ndalowanso mʼkati mwake mwenimweni, mwa nkhalango yake yowirira kwambiri.
24 Matutu mmura wɔ ahɔho nsase bebree so de ne nsu pa no adwudwo me ho. Mpo, mepaee Misraim nsubɔnten mu sɛnea mʼakofo betumi atwa!”
Ndakumba zitsime ku mayiko achilendo ndipo ndinamwa madzi a kumeneko. Ndi mapazi anga ndawumitsa mitsinje yonse ya ku Igupto.’”
25 “‘Na Montee ɛ? Bere tenten a atwam, na mehyɛ too hɔ. Bere bi a atwam no na medwenee ho; afei mama aba mu sɛ, moadan ɔman a mosɛe nkuropɔn a wɔabɔ ho ban.
“‘Kodi sunamvepo? Zimenezi ndinazikhazikitsa kalekale. Ndinazikonzeratu masiku amakedzana; tsopano ndachita kuti zichitikedi, iwe kwako kunali kungosandutsa mizinda yotetezedwa kukhala milu ya miyala.
26 Wɔn nkurɔfo a tumi afi wɔn nsa no ho adwiriw wɔn, na animguase aka wɔn. Wɔte sɛ afuw so nnua, ne afifide foforo a ɛyɛ mmrɛw. Wɔte sɛ sare a efifi ɔdan atifi a ɛhyew ansa na anyin.
Anthu a kumeneko ndi opanda mphamvu, athedwa nzeru ndipo ali ndi manyazi. Ali ngati mbewu za mʼmunda, ngati udzu wanthete, ali ngati udzu womera pa denga, umene umawuma usanakule nʼkomwe.’”
27 “‘Nanso minim nea wote bere a woba ne bere a wokɔ ne sɛnea wo bo huru tia me.
“‘Koma Ine ndimadziwa kukhala kwako, kutuluka kwako ndi kulowa kwako, ndi mkwiyo wako pa Ine.
28 Na esiane sɛ wo bo huru tia me na wʼahantan adu mʼasom nti, mede me darewa bɛhyɛ wo hwenem, na mede akwankyerɛ dade ahyɛ wʼanom, mɛma wo afa ɔkwan a wofaa so bae no so asan wʼakyi.’
Chifukwa chakuti wandikwiyira ndipo ndamva za mwano wako, ndidzakola mphuno yako ndi mbedza ndi kuyika chitsulo changa mʼkamwa mwako, ndipo ndidzakubweza pokudzeretsa njira yomwe unadzera pobwera.’
29 “Eyi na ɛbɛyɛ nsɛnkyerɛnne ama wo, Hesekia: “Saa afe yi wubedi nea ɛno ankasa fifii. Afe a ɛto so abien no, wubedi nea efi mu ba. Nanso afe a ɛto so abiɛsa no de, wo ara dua na twa, yɛ bobe nturo na di so aba.
“Koma iwe Hezekiya, chizindikiro chako chidzakhala ichi: “Chaka chino mudzadya tirigu wamphulumukwa, ndipo chaka chamawa mudzadya tirigu wongodzimerera. Koma chaka chachitatu mudzadzala ndi kukolola, mudzawoka mphesa ndipo mudzadya zipatso zake.
30 Bio, nkae bi a ofi Yuda fi begye ntin wɔ fam na wasow aba wɔ soro.
Anthu a nyumba ya Yuda amene adzatsale adzazika mizu ndi kubereka zipatso.
31 Na nkae bi befi Yerusalem aba, na nkae dɔm afi Bepɔw Sion so. Asafo Awurade pɛ mu na eyi bɛyɛ.
Pakuti ku Yerusalemu kudzachokera anthu otsala, ndi ku phiri la Ziyoni kudzachokera gulu la anthu opulumuka.” “Changu cha Yehova Wamphamvuzonse chidzachita zimenezi.
32 “Eyi ne asɛm a Awurade ka fa Asiriahene ho: “Ɔrenhyɛn saa kuropɔn yi mu na ɔrentow bɛmma wɔ ha. Ɔremfa nkatabo mmegyina kuropɔn no akyi na ɔrensi pie ntua nʼano.
“Choncho chimene Yehova akunena za mfumu ya ku Asiriya ndi ichi: “‘Iye sadzalowa mu mzinda umenewu kapena kuponyamo muvi. Sadzayandikira mzindawu ndi zishango zake kapena kumanga nthumbira ya nkhondo.
33 Ɔhene no kwan a ɔfaa so bae no ara so na ɔbɛsan afa akɔ nʼankasa man mu. Awurade ka se, ɔrenwura saa kurow yi mu.
Adzabwerera potsata njira imene anadzera pobwera; sadzalowa mu mzinda umenewu, akutero Yehova.
34 Esiane mʼankasa mʼanuonyam ne mʼakoa Dawid nti, mɛbɔ ho ban.”
Ndidzateteza mzinda umenewu kuwupulumutsa, chifukwa cha Ine mwini ndiponso chifukwa cha Davide mtumiki wanga.’”
35 Saa anadwo no, Awurade bɔfo kɔɔ Asiria nsraban mu, kokum Asiria asraafo no mpem ɔha aduɔwɔtwe anum. Asiriafo a wɔkae no nyan anɔpa no, wohuu sɛ afunu gugu mmɔnten so baabiara.
Usiku umenewo mngelo wa Yehova anapita ku misasa ya ku Asiriya ndi kupha ankhondo 185,000. Ndipo pamene anthu anadzuka mmawa, taonani, mitembo inali ngundangunda!
36 Na Asiriahene Sanaherib gyaee ɔko no, kɔɔ nʼankasa nʼasase so. Ɔkɔtenaa nʼahenkurow Ninewe mu.
Choncho Senakeribu mfumu ya ku Asiriya anapasula misasa ndi kuchoka. Anabwerera ku Ninive nakakhala kumeneko.
37 Da koro bi a ɔresom wɔ ne nyame Nisrok abosonnan mu no, ne mmabarima Adramelek ne Sareser de wɔn afoa kokum no. Woguan fii hɔ kɔtenaa Ararat asase so, na ne babarima foforo Esarhadon bedii nʼade sɛ Asiriahene.
Tsiku lina, pamene Senakeribu ankapembedza mʼnyumba ya Nisiroki mulungu wake, ana ake Adirameleki ndi Sarezeri anamupha ndi lupanga ndipo anathawira ku dziko la Ararati. Tsono Esrahadoni, mwana wake, analowa ufumu mʼmalo mwake.
