2 Berɛsosɛm 17
1 Na Asa babarima Yehosafat bɛdii nʼadeɛ sɛ ɔhene. Ɔhyɛɛ Yuda den, sɛdeɛ ɔbɛtumi agyina Israel ntohyɛsoɔ biara ano.
UJehoshafathi indodana yakhe wasesiba yinkosi esikhundleni sakhe; waziqinisa ukumelana loIsrayeli.
2 Ɔduaduaa akodɔm wɔ Yuda nkuropɔn a wɔabɔ ho ban no nyinaa mu. Ɔde asraadɔm kumaa bi kɔɔ Yuda asase so ne Efraim nkuro a nʼagya Asa adi so nkonim no so.
Wasebeka amabutho kuyo yonke imizi ebiyelweyo yakoJuda; wabeka lamabutho enqaba elizweni lakoJuda, lemizini yakoEfrayimi uyise uAsa ayeyithumbile.
3 Na Awurade ka Yehosafat ho, ɛfiri sɛ, ɔyɛɛ sɛdeɛ nʼagya Asa yɛeɛ wɔ ne mfeɛ a ɛdi ɛkan no mu, na wansom Baal ahoni no.
INkosi yasisiba loJehoshafathi, ngoba wahamba ngendlela zakuqala zikaDavida uyise, kabadinganga oBhali;
4 Ɔhwehwɛɛ nʼagya Onyankopɔn, na ɔdii nʼahyɛdeɛ so a wanni Israel ahennie mu nneyɛeɛ no akyi.
kodwa wadinga kuNkulunkulu kayise, wahamba ngemilayo yakhe, njalo kungenjengokwenza kukaIsrayeli.
5 Enti, Awurade maa Yehosafat Yudaman so ahennie no timiiɛ. Nnipa a wɔwɔ Yuda nyinaa brɛɛ Yehosafat akyɛdeɛ, maa ɔyɛɛ ɔdefoɔ, na wɔde anidie maa no.
Ngakho iNkosi yawuqinisa umbuso esandleni sakhe, loJuda wonke waletha izipho kuJehoshafathi; wasesiba lenotho lodumo ngobunengi.
6 Ɔfiri nʼakoma nyinaa mu nantee Awurade akwan so. Ɔbubuu abosonsomfoɔ asɔreeɛ no, na ɔsɛee Asera afɔrebukyia no.
Inhliziyo yakhe yasiphakama ezindleleni zeNkosi; futhi-ke wasusa indawo eziphakemeyo lezixuku koJuda.
7 Yehosafat ahennie mfeɛ mmiɛnsa so no, ɔsomaa ne mpanimfoɔ maa wɔkɔkyerɛkyerɛɛ wɔ Yuda nkuro nyinaa so. Ne mpanimfoɔ no ne Ben-Hail, Obadia, Sakaria, Netanel ne Mikaia.
Langomnyaka wesithathu wokubusa kwakhe wathuma kuziphathamandla zakhe, kuBeni-Hayili lakuObhadiya lakuZekhariya lakuNethaneli lakuMikhaya, ukufundisa emizini yakoJuda.
8 Ɔsomaa Lewifoɔ a wɔn din didi soɔ yi kaa wɔn ho: Semaia, Netania, Sebadia, Asahel, Semiramot, Yehonatan, Adoniya, Tobia ne Tob-Adoniya. Ɔsomaa asɔfoɔ Elisama ne Yehoram nso.
Kanye lazo-ke amaLevi, oShemaya loNethaniya loZebhadiya loAsaheli loShemiramothi loJehonathani loAdonija loTobija loTobi-Adonija, amaLevi; kanye labo-ke oElishama loJehoramu, abapristi.
9 Wɔfaa Awurade mmara a wɔatintim wɔ nwoma no mu de kyinii Yuda nkuro nyinaa so, kyerɛkyerɛɛ nnipa no.
Basebefundisa koJuda, belogwalo lomlayo weNkosi; babhoda kuyo yonke imizi yakoJuda, bafundisa abantu.
10 Na afei, ɛmaa Awurade ho suro tɔɔ ahennie a atwa ahyia no nyinaa so, enti obiara amfa ɔko ankɔ Yehosafat so.
Kwasekusiba lokuyesaba iNkosi phezu kwayo yonke imibuso yamazwe ayehanqe uJuda, okokuthi kayilwanga loJehoshafathi.
11 Filistifoɔ no bi brɛɛ no akyɛdeɛ ne dwetɛ sɛ apeatoɔ, na Arabfoɔ brɛɛ no nnwennini mpem nson ne ahanson ne mpapo mpem nson ne ahanson.
Labanye bamaFilisti bamlethela uJehoshafathi izipho, lesiliva lokuthela; amaArabhiya lawo amlethela imihlambi, inqama eziyizinkulungwane eziyisikhombisa lamakhulu ayisikhombisa, lezimpongo eziyizinkulungwane eziyisikhombisa lamakhulu ayisikhombisa.
12 Ɛmaa Yehosafat tumi mu yɛɛ den, na ɛkɔɔ so yɛɛ den ara maa ɔsisii aban ne nnuane akoradan wɔ Yuda nkuropɔn nyinaa so.
UJehoshafathi wayelokhu ekhula njalo, waze waba sengqongeni. Wasesakha koJuda izinqaba lemizi yeziphala.
13 Ɔkoraa nneɛma bebree wɔ Yuda nkuro mu, na ɔmaa akodɔm a wɔyɛ den tenaa Yerusalem.
Wayelomsebenzi omnengi emizini yakoJuda, lamadoda empi, amaqhawe alamandla, eJerusalema.
14 Wɔgyinaa agyanom mmusuakuo so gyee asraafoɔ. Yuda abusua mu, na akodɔm no dodoɔ yɛ ɔpehasa a wɔakyekyɛ wɔn mu akuakuo apem. Adna na na ɔyɛ wɔn sahene.
Lala ngamanani awo ngezindlu zaboyise: KoJuda, induna zezinkulungwane, uAdina engumphathi, njalo kanye laye amaqhawe alamandla azinkulungwane ezingamakhulu amathathu;
15 Onipa a na ɔdi ne so ne Yehohanan a na ɔdi akodɔm ɔpehanu aduɔwɔtwe so.
leceleni kwakhe uJohanani umphathi, njalo kanye laye izinkulungwane ezingamakhulu amabili lamatshumi ayisificaminwembili;
16 Deɛ ɔdi hɔ ne Sikri babarima Amasia, a ɔde ne ho bɔɔ afɔdeɛ maa Awurade adwuma a na ɔdi akodɔm ɔpehanu so sahene.
leceleni kwakhe uAmasiya indodana kaZikiri, owazinikela ngesihle eNkosini, njalo kanye laye amaqhawe alamandla azinkulungwane ezingamakhulu amabili.
17 Benyamin abusua akodɔm no, na wɔn dodoɔ yɛ ɔpehanu a wɔwɔ agyan ne akokyɛm. Na wɔn sahene ne Eliada, ɔsraani a wadi ako akyɛre.
LakoBhenjamini: UEliyada iqhawe elilamandla, njalo kanye laye izinkulungwane ezingamakhulu amabili, ezihlome ngedandili langesihlangu;
18 Deɛ ɔdi hɔ ne Yehosabad a ɔtua asraafoɔ ɔpeha aduɔwɔtwe a wɔamia ama ɔko.
leceleni kwakhe uJehozabadi, njalo kanye laye izinkulungwane ezilikhulu lamatshumi ayisificaminwembili, abahlomele impi.
19 Yeinom ne akodɔm a wɔtenaa Yerusalem somm ɔhene no, ne wɔn a Yehosafat de wɔn duaduaa nkuro a wɔabɔ ho ban wɔ Yudaman mu.
Laba babesebenzela inkosi ngaphandle kwalabo inkosi eyayibabeke emizini ebiyelweyo kuye wonke uJuda.
