1 Ɛberɛ a Yehu babarima Yehoahas hyɛɛ aseɛ dii ɔhene wɔ Israel no, na ɔhene Yoas nso adi adeɛ mfeɛ aduonu mmiɛnsa wɔ Yuda. Ɔdii adeɛ mfeɛ dunson wɔ Samaria.
Mu mwaka ogw’amakumi abiri mu esatu ogwa Yowaasi mutabani wa Akaziya kabaka wa Yuda, Yekoyakaazi n’afuuka kabaka wa Isirayiri mu Samaliya era n’afugira emyaka kkumi na musanvu.
2 Nanso, ɔyɛɛ bɔne wɔ Awurade ani so. Ɔdii Nebat babarima Yeroboam nhwɛsoɔ akyi, toaa ahonisom a ɔdii Israelfoɔ no anim yɛeɛ no so.
N’akola ebibi mu maaso ga Mukama ng’akola ebibi Yerobowaamu mutabani wa Nebati bye yayonoonyesa Isirayiri, ate n’atabirekaayo.
3 Enti, Awurade bo fuu Israelfoɔ, na ɔmaa ɔhene Hasael a ɔfiri Aram ne ne babarima Ben-Hadad kwan ma wɔdii wɔn so mfeɛ bebree.
Obusungu bwa Mukama ne bubuubuukira ku Isirayiri, n’abawaayo okubeera wansi ow’omukono gwa Kazayeeri kabaka w’e Busuuli ne Benikadadi mutabani we.
4 Na Yehoahas bɔɔ Awurade mpaeɛ, srɛɛ ne mmoa. Awurade tiee ne mpaeɛbɔ. Na Awurade hunuu nhyɛsotrasoɔ a Aramhene de maa Israelfoɔ no.
Awo Yekoyakaazi ne yegayirira Mukama, Mukama n’amuwulira, era n’alaba okucocca, kabaka w’e Busuuli kwe yacoccanga Isirayiri.
5 Awurade yii ɔgyefoɔ bi ma ɔbɛgyee Israelfoɔ no firii Aramfoɔ nhyɛsotrasoɔ no ase. Na Israelfoɔ no tenaa ase ahotɔ mu bio, sɛdeɛ na wɔte kane no.
Mukama n’abaddiramu n’abawa omulokozi, ne bawona obufuzi bw’Abasuuli, n’oluvannyuma Abayisirayiri ne babeeranga mirembe mu nnyumba zaabwe nga bwe baali olubereberye.
6 Nanso, wɔkɔɔ so yɛɛ bɔne, wɔdii Yeroboam nhwɛsobɔne no akyi. Na mpo, wɔsii Asera afɔrebukyia wɔ Samaria.
Naye ne batalekaayo kukola ebibi eby’ennyumba ya Yerobowaamu bye yayonoonyesa Isirayiri, wabula beeyongeranga bweyongezi okubikola. N’empagi ey’Asera n’esigalayo mu Samaliya.
7 Ne korakora ne sɛ, Yehoahas akodɔm no so te bɛyɛɛ apɔnkɔsotefoɔ aduonum, nteaseɛnam edu ne anammɔntwa asraafoɔ ɔpedu. Na Aramhene akunkum nkaeɛ no, te sɛ deɛ wɔyɛ mfuturo wɔ ne nan ase.
Mukama teyalekerawo ggye lya Yekoyakaazi kintu okuggyako abasajja abeebagala embalaasi amakumi ataano, n’amagaali kkumi, n’abaserikale ab’ebigere omutwalo gumu, kubanga kabaka w’e Busuuli yabizikiriza, n’abifuula ng’enfuufu ey’omu gguuliro.
8 Yehoahas ahennie mu nneɛma a ɛsisiiɛ, dwuma a ɔdiiɛ ne deɛ ne tumidie kɔsooɛ nyinaa, wɔatwerɛ wɔ Israel Ahemfo Abakɔsɛm Nwoma mu.
Ebyafaayo ebirala ebyabaawo mu mirembe gya Yekoyakaazi, ne bye yakola byonna, n’ebyobuzira bwe byonna, tebyawandiikibwa mu kitabo eky’ebyomumirembe gya bassekabaka ba Isirayiri?
9 Ɛberɛ a Yehoahas wuiɛ no, wɔsiee no Samaria wɔ ne mpanimfoɔ nkyɛn. Na ne babarima Yehoas dii nʼadeɛ sɛ ɔhene.
Yekoyakaazi n’afa, n’aziikibwa mu Samaliya, Yowaasi mutabani we n’amusikira.
10 Yehoahas babarima Yehoas hyɛɛ aseɛ dii Israel so wɔ ɛberɛ a na ɔhene Yoas adi adeɛ Yuda ne mfeɛ aduasa nson so. Ɔdii adeɛ Samaria mfeɛ dunsia.
Awo mu mwaka ogw’amakumi asatu mu omusanvu ogwa Yowaasi kabaka wa Yuda, Yekoyaasi mutabani wa Yekoyakaazi n’afuuka kabaka wa Isirayiri mu Samaliya, era n’afugira emyaka kkumi na musanvu.
11 Na ɔyɛɛ bɔne Awurade ani so. Wantwe ne ho amfiri abosonsom a Nebat babarima Yeroboam dii Israel anim ma wɔyɛeɛ no ho.
N’akola ebibi mu maaso ga Mukama, n’atalekaayo ebibi bya Yerobowaamu mutabani wa Nebati, bye yayonoonyesa Isirayiri, wabula ne yeeyongera bweyongezi okubikola.
12 Yehoas dwuma a ɔdiiɛ no nkaeɛ wɔ nʼahennie mu ne ne mmaninyɛ nyinaa ne ne tumi a na ɔwɔ no ne ɔko a ɔne Yudahene Amasia koeɛ no, wɔatwerɛ wɔ Israel Ahemfo Abakɔsɛm Nwoma mu.
Ebyafaayo ebirala ebyabaawo mu mirembe gya Yekoyaasi, bye yakola byonna, n’amaanyi ge, nga kwe kuli n’olutalo lwe yalwana ne Amaziya kabaka wa Yuda, tebyawandiikibwa mu kitabo eky’ebyomumirembe gya bassekabaka ba Isirayiri?
13 Ɛberɛ a Yehoas wuiɛ no, wɔsiee no Samaria wɔ ne mpanimfoɔ nkyɛn. Na ne babarima Yeroboam a ɔtɔ so mmienu dii nʼadeɛ sɛ ɔhene.
Yekoyaasi n’afa, n’aziikibwa mu Samaliya, Yerobowaamu n’amusikira okuba kabaka.
14 Ɛberɛ a yarewuo bɔɔ Elisa no, Israelhene Yehoas kɔsraa no, na ɔsuu no sɛ, “Mʼagya! Mʼagya! Israel nteaseɛnam ne nteaseɛnamkafoɔ!”
Awo mu biro ebyo Erisa n’alwala nnyo, endwadde eyamutta, Yowaasi n’aserengeta gy’ali okumulaba, n’akaabira amaziga, mu maaso ge ng’agamba nti, “Kitange, Kitange, amagaali n’abeebagala embalaasi aba Isirayiri!”
15 Elisa ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Hwehwɛ tadua ne bɛmma.” Na ɔhene no yɛɛ deɛ ɔkaeɛ no.
Erisa n’amuddamu nti, “Ffuna omutego n’obusaale,” era n’akola bw’atyo.
16 Na Elisa ka kyerɛɛ Israelhene no sɛ ɔmfa ne nsa nto tadua no so. Na Elisa de ɔno ankasa ne nsa too ɔhene no nsa so.
N’agamba kabaka wa Isirayiri nti, “Bikwate mu ngalo.” Bwe yamala okukola ekyo, Erisa n’ateeka emikono gye ku gya kabaka.
17 Afei, ɔhyɛɛ sɛ, “Bue mpomma a ɛkyerɛ apueeɛ fam no.” Na ɔbueeɛ. Na ɔkaa sɛ, “To!” Na ɔtoeɛ. Na Elisa kaa sɛ, “Yei ne Awurade agyan a ɛyɛ Aram so nkonimdie, ɛfiri sɛ, wobɛdi Aramfoɔ so pasaa wɔ Afek.
Erisa n’amugamba nti, “Ggulawo eddirisa ery’ebuvanjuba,” n’aliggulawo. N’amulagira okulasa. Erisa n’ayogera nti, “Akasaale ka Mukama ak’obuwanguzi, akasaale ak’obuwanguzi eri Obusuuli, era ojja kusaanyizaawo ddala Abasuuli mu Afeki.”
18 Afei, tase bɛmma a aka no na toto wowɔ fam.” Enti, ɔhene no taseeɛ, na ɔtoto wowɔɔ fam mprɛnsa.
N’amugamba nti, “Kwata obusaale,” n’abukwata. N’agamba kabaka wa Isirayiri okulasa ettaka. N’alirasa emirundi esatu, n’akoma awo.
19 Nanso, Onyankopɔn onipa no bo fuu no, kaa sɛ, “Anka ɛsɛ sɛ wototo sisi fam mpɛn enum anaa nsia. Ɛno ansa a na anka wobɛdi Aram so, kɔsi sɛ wobɛtɔre wɔn ase. Enti, wobɛdi nkonim mprɛnsa.”
Omusajja wa Katonda n’amunyiigira, n’amugamba nti, “Wandirasizza emirundi etaano oba mukaaga, olwo n’olyoka owangulira ddala Abasuuli era n’obasaanyaawo. Naye kaakano olibawangula emirundi esatu gyokka.”
20 Elisa wuiɛ, na wɔsiee no. Na Moabfoɔ afomfafoɔ kɔfom asase no so nneɛma afe biara.
Erisa n’afa, n’aziikibwa. Ebibinja by’Abamowaabu byateranga okulumba ensi ku ntandikwa ya buli mwaka.
21 Ɛberɛ bi a Israelfoɔ resie obi no, wɔhunuu afomfafoɔ bi. Ɛno enti, wɔyɛɛ no ntɛm too amu no twenee Elisa ɔboda mu. Amu no kɔkaa Elisa nnompe ara pɛ na owufoɔ no nyaneeɛ, huri gyinaa ne nan so!
Awo olwatuuka, Abayisirayiri abamu baali baziika omusajja, ne balengera ekibinja eky’abasajja nga kijja, ne basuula omulambo gwe mu ntaana ya Erisa ne badduka. Omulambo gwe bwe gw’akoma ku magumba ga Erisa omusajja n’alamuka, era n’ayimirira.
22 Na Aramhene Hasael hyɛɛ Israelfoɔ so ɛberɛ a Ɔhene Yehoahas dii adeɛ no nyinaa.
Mu kiseera kye kimu Kazayeeri kabaka w’e Busuuli n’ajooga Isirayiri ebbanga lyonna Yekoyakaazi we yabeerera kabaka.
23 Nanso, Awurade hunuu Israelfoɔ mmɔbɔ enti, wɔn ase antɔre. Esiane apam a na ɔne Abraham, Isak ne Yakob ayɛ no enti, ɔhunuu wɔn mmɔbɔ. Na ɛbɛsi ɛnnɛ, ɔntɔree wɔn ase, na ɔmpamoo wɔn mfirii nʼanim.
Naye Mukama n’abakwatirwa ekisa n’abasaasira, era n’assaayo omwoyo gye bali olw’endagaano gye yakola ne Ibulayimu, ne Isaaka ne Yakobo nti talibazikiririza ddala. N’okutuusa ku lunaku olwa leero tayagalanga kubazikiriza okuva mu maaso ge.
24 Afei, Aramhene Hasael wuiɛ, na ne babarima Ben-Hadad bɛdii nʼadeɛ sɛ ɔhene.
Kazayeeri kabaka w’e Busuuli n’afa, Benikadadi mutabani we n’amusikira.
25 Na Yehoahas babarima Yehoas sane kɔgyegyee nkuro a Hasael gyegye firii nʼagya Yehoahas nsam. Yehoas dii Ben-Hadad so nkonim mprɛnsa, nam so gyegyee Israel nkuro no.
Awo Yekoyaasi mutabani wa Yekoyakaazi n’awamba nate ebibuga Benikadadi mutabani wa Kazayeeri bye yali awambye ku kitaawe Yekoyakaazi mu ntalo. Yowaasi ye n’amuwangula emirundi esatu, era n’akomyawo ebibuga bya Isirayiri ebyali biwambiddwa.
