3 Usia dii adeɛ no, na wadi mfirinhyia dunsia, na ɔdii ɔhene wɔ Yerusalem mfirinhyia aduonum mmienu. Ne maame a ɔfiri Yerusalem no din de Yeholia.
Uziya anali wa zaka 16 pamene anakhala mfumu ndipo analamulira mu Yerusalemu kwa zaka 70. Dzina la amayi ake linali Yekoliya wa ku Yerusalemu.
4 Na ɔtene wɔ Awurade ani so, sɛdeɛ nʼagya Amasia teɛ no.

6 Ɔtuu Filistifoɔ so sa, na ɔbubuu Gat, Yabne ne Asdod afasuo. Na ɔkyekyeree nkuro afoforɔ wɔ Asdod fam ne mmeammea bi a ɛwɔ Filistia.
Iyeyo anapita kukachita nkhondo ndi Afilisti ndipo anagwetsa makoma a Gati, Yabine ndi Asidodi. Ndipo kenaka anamanganso mizinda ya pafupi ndi Asidodi ndi malo ena pafupi ndi Afilisti.
7 Ɛnyɛ ɔko a ɔne Filistifoɔ koeɛ no mu nko ara na Onyankopɔn boaa no, na mmom ɔko a ɔne Arabfoɔ a wɔwɔ Gur Baal koeɛ ne Meunifoɔ ko mu nso, ɔboaa no.

8 Meunifoɔ no tuaa apeatoɔ maa no, na ne din hyeta kɔduruu Misraim, ɛfiri sɛ, na ɔwɔ tumi a ɛso.
Aamoni ankabweretsa msonkho kwa Uziya ndipo mbiri yake inamveka mpaka ku malire a dziko la Igupto chifukwa anali wamphamvu kwambiri.
9 Usia sisii ɔwɛn abantenten wɔ Yerusalem wɔ Twɛtwɛwa Ɛpono ano, Bɔnhwa Ɛpono ano ne ɔfasuo no ntwea mu no so.
Uziya anamanga nsanja ku Yerusalemu ku Chipata Chapangodya, ku Chigwa cha Chipata ndi pokhotera mpanda, ndipo anayikamo chitetezo.
10 Ɔsane sisii abankɛseɛ wɔ ɛserɛ so, tutuu nsubura bebree, ɛfiri sɛ, na ɔyɛn mmoa pii wɔ Yuda bepɔ ase hɔ. Na ɔyɛ ɔbarima a nʼani gye kua ho. Na ɔwɔ adwumayɛfoɔ bebree a wɔhwɛ ne mfuo ne ne bobefuo a ɛwɔ mmepɔ no nsianeɛ mu ne bɔnhwa nsase bereɛ no so.
Iye anamanganso nsanja ku chipululu ndi kukumbanso zitsime zambiri chifukwa anali ndi ziweto zambiri mʼmbali mwa phiri ndi ku zigwa. Iye anali ndi anthu amene ankagwira ntchito mʼminda yake ndiponso mʼminda yake ya mphesa mʼphiri ndi malo achonde, pakuti ankakonda nthaka.
11 Na Usia wɔ asraafoɔ a wɔyɛ akofoɔ akɛseɛ a wɔwɔ akodie mu nteteeɛ. Na wɔyɛ akuakuo a wɔasiesie wɔn ho ama ɔko. Na Yeiel a ɔyɛ akodɔm no twerɛfoɔ ne ne ɔboafoɔ Maaseia na wɔboaboa akofoɔ kɛseɛ yi ano. Na wɔhyɛ Hanania a ɔyɛ ɔhene no mpanimfoɔ no mu baako ase.
Uziya anali ndi gulu lankhondo lophunzitsidwa bwino, lokonzekera kupita ku nkhondo mʼmagulu monga mwa chiwerengero chawo chimene mlembi Yeiyeli ndi Maaseya anasonkhanitsa motsogozedwa ndi Hananiya mmodzi mwa akuluakulu a mfumu.
12 Mmusua ntuanofoɔ mpenu ahansia na na wɔma saa akofoɔ abenfoɔ yi akwankyerɛ.
Chiwerengero chonse cha atsogoleri a mʼmabanja oyangʼanira anthu ochita nkhondo chinali 2,600.
13 Na akodɔm no dodoɔ yɛ ɔpehasa ne nson ne ahanum a wɔn nyinaa nim de. Na wɔada wɔn ho so sɛ wɔbɛboa ɔhene no ako atia ɔtamfoɔ biara.
Pansi pa ulamuliro wawo panali asilikali 307,500 ophunzitsidwa nkhondo, gulu lamphamvu lothandiza mfumu kulimbana ndi adani ake.
14 Usia maa akodɔm no nyinaa akokyɛm, mpea, nnadeɛ kyɛ, nkataboɔ, bɛmma ne ahwimmoɔ aboɔ.
Uziya anawapangira asilikaliwo zishango, mikondo, zipewa zankhondo, malaya ankhondo achitsulo, mauta ndi miyala yogendera.
15 Afei, abenfoɔ bi yɛɛ mfidie de sisii Yerusalem afasuo no so a ɛto agyan ne aboɔ firi abantenten no so ne ɔfasuo twɛtwɛwa so. Nʼanimuonyam hyetaeɛ, ɛfiri sɛ, Awurade boaa no yie kɔsii sɛ ɔnyaa tumi kɛseɛ.
Mu Yerusalemu anapanga makina okonzedwa ndi anthu aluso amene amagwiritsidwa ntchito pa malo otetezera a pa nsanja ndi pa ngodya kuponyera mivi ndi kugubuduzira miyala. Mbiri yake inamveka kutali ndi ponseponse pakuti anathandizidwa kwambiri mpaka anakhala wamphamvu kwambiri.
16 Nanso, ɔnyaa tumi kɛseɛ no, ɔyɛɛ ahantan a ɛnam so maa ɔhwee ase. Ɔyɛɛ bɔne tiaa Awurade ne Onyankopɔn, ɛfiri sɛ ɔkɔɔ Awurade Asɔredan kronkronbea hɔ, kɔhyee nnuhwam wɔ afɔrebukyia no so.
Koma pamene Uziya anakhala wamphamvu kwambiri, kunyada kwake kunamuwononga. Iye sanakhulupirike kwa Yehova Mulungu wake, ndipo analowa mʼNyumba ya Yehova kukafukiza lubani pa guwa lofukizira.
17 Ɔsɔfopanin Asaria ne Awurade asɔfoɔ foforɔ aduɔwɔtwe, akokoɔdurufoɔ kɔhwehwɛɛ no.
Wansembe Azariya pamodzi ndi ansembe a Yehova ena 80 olimba mtima anamutsatira.
18 Wɔka sii ɔhene Usia anim sɛ, “Ɛnyɛ wo Usia na ɛsɛ sɛ wohye nnuhwam ma Awurade. Ɛyɛ asɔfoɔ nko ara, Aaron mmammarima a, wɔayi wɔn asi hɔ ama saa dwumadie no nko ara adwuma. Firi kronkronbea ha kɔ, ɛfiri sɛ, woayɛ bɔne. Onyankopɔn renhyɛ wo animuonyam wɔ yei ho.”
Iwo anatsutsana naye ndipo anati, “Sibwino kuti inu mfumu muzifukiza lubani koma zidzukulu za Aaroni, zimene zinapatulidwa kuti zizifukiza lubani. Chokani pa malo opatulika ano, pakuti inu mwakhala osakhulupirika, ndipo simudzalemekezedwa ndi Yehova Mulungu.”
19 Usia bo fuu yie, na wamfa nnuhwamhyeɛ kuruwa a na ɛkura no no ansi fam. Ɔne asɔfoɔ no gyina nnuhwam afɔrebukyia no anim wɔ Awurade Asɔredan no mu no, prɛko pɛ, kwata totɔɔ ne moma so.
Uziya, amene anali ndi chofukizira mʼmanja mwake wokonzeka kuti afukize lubani, anapsa mtima. Iye anakwiyira ansembewo. Ndipo ansembe aja akuona patsogolo pa guwa lofukizira lubani mʼNyumba ya Mulungu, khate linayamba pamphumi pake.
20 Ɛberɛ a Asaria ne asɔfoɔ a aka no hunuu kwata no, wɔpiapiaa no firii hɔ. Na ɔhene no ankasa pɛɛ sɛ ɔfiri hɔ ntɛm, ɛfiri sɛ, Awurade na wabɔ no.
Azariya, mkulu wa ansembe pamodzi ndi ansembe ena onse atamuyangʼana anaona kuti anali ndi khate pamphumi pake, ndipo anamutulutsa mofulumira. Ndipo iye mwini anafulumira kutuluka, chifukwa Yehova anamulanga.
21 Enti, kwata yɛɛ ɔhene Usia kɔsii sɛ ɔwuiɛ. Wɔpamoo no firii nnipa mu maa ɔno nko ara tenaeɛ a wankɔ Awurade Asɔredan mu. Wɔde ne babarima Yotam tenaa ahemfie hɔ ma ɔdii nnipa a wɔwɔ asase no so so.
Mfumu Uziya anali ndi khate mpaka tsiku limene anamwalira. Iye amakhala mʼnyumba ya yekha ngati wakhate, ndipo samalowa mʼNyumba ya Yehova. Yotamu mwana wake ndiye amayangʼanira nyumba yaufumu ndipo ankalamulira anthu a mʼdzikomo.
22 Amos babarima Yesaia atwerɛ Usia ahennie ho nsɛm nkaeɛ firi ahyɛaseɛ kɔsi awieeɛ ato hɔ.
Ntchito zina za mfumu Uziya, kuyambira pachiyambi mpaka pa mapeto, zinalembedwa ndi mneneri Yesaya mwana wa Amozi.
23 Usia wuiɛ, na ɛsiane sɛ kwata yɛɛ no enti, wɔsiee no bɛn ahemfo amusieeɛ. Na ne babarima Yotam na ɔdii nʼadeɛ sɛ ɔhene.
Uziya analondola makolo ake, ndipo anamuyika pamodzi ndi makolo ake ku malo a manda a mafumu, koma osati mʼmanda mwawomo poti anthu anati, “Iyeyu anali ndi khate.” Ndipo Yotamu mwana wake analowa ufumu mʼmalo mwake.
