2 Ahemfo 13
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.
Ngomnyaka wamatshumi amabili lantathu kaJowashi indodana kaAhaziya inkosi yakoJuda uJehowahazi indodana kaJehu waba yinkosi phezu kukaIsrayeli eSamariya, wabusa iminyaka elitshumi lesikhombisa.
2 Nanso, ɔyɛɛ bɔne wɔ Awurade ani so. Ɔdii Nebat babarima Yeroboam nhwɛsoɔ akyi, toaa ahonisom a ɔdii Israelfoɔ no anim yɛeɛ no so.
Wenza okubi emehlweni eNkosi, walandela izono zikaJerobhowamu indodana kaNebati owenza uIsrayeli one, kasukanga kuzo.
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.
Ulaka lweNkosi lwaselumvuthela uIsrayeli, yabanikela esandleni sikaHazayeli inkosi yeSiriya lesandleni sikaBenihadadi indodana kaHazayeli, zonke lezonsuku.
4 Na Yehoahas bɔɔ Awurade mpaeɛ, srɛɛ ne mmoa. Awurade tiee ne mpaeɛbɔ. Na Awurade hunuu nhyɛsotrasoɔ a Aramhene de maa Israelfoɔ no.
UJehowahazi wasencenga ubuso beNkosi, iNkosi yamuzwa, ngoba yabona incindezelo kaIsrayeli, ngoba inkosi yeSiriya yabacindezela.
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.
(INkosi yasisipha uIsrayeli umsindisi ukuze baphume ngaphansi kwesandla samaSiriya; abantwana bakoIsrayeli basebehlala emathenteni abo njengakuqala.
6 Nanso, wɔkɔɔ so yɛɛ bɔne, wɔdii Yeroboam nhwɛsobɔne no akyi. Na mpo, wɔsii Asera afɔrebukyia wɔ Samaria.
Loba kunjalo kabasukanga ezonweni zendlu kaJerobhowamu owenza uIsrayeli one, bahamba kuzo; lesixuku laso sasilokhu siseSamariya.)
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.
Ngoba kayimtshiyelanga uJehowahazi abantu, kuphela abagadi bamabhiza abangamatshumi amahlanu, lenqola ezilitshumi, labahamba ngenyawo abazinkulungwane ezilitshumi; ngoba inkosi yeSiriya yayibabhubhisile, yabenza baba njengothuli ngokubhula.
8 Yehoahas ahennie mu nneɛma a ɛsisiiɛ, dwuma a ɔdiiɛ ne deɛ ne tumidie kɔsooɛ nyinaa, wɔatwerɛ wɔ Israel Ahemfo Abakɔsɛm Nwoma mu.
Ezinye-ke zezindaba zikaJehowahazi, lakho konke akwenzayo, lamandla akhe, kakubhalwanga yini egwalweni lwemilando yamakhosi akoIsrayeli?
9 Ɛberɛ a Yehoahas wuiɛ no, wɔsiee no Samaria wɔ ne mpanimfoɔ nkyɛn. Na ne babarima Yehoas dii nʼadeɛ sɛ ɔhene.
UJehowahazi waselala laboyise, bamngcwabela eSamariya; uJowashi indodana yakhe wasesiba yinkosi esikhundleni sakhe.
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.
Ngomnyaka wamatshumi amathathu lesikhombisa kaJowashi inkosi yakoJuda uJehowashi indodana kaJehowahazi waba yinkosi phezu kukaIsrayeli eSamariya; wabusa iminyaka elitshumi lesithupha.
11 Na ɔyɛɛ bɔne Awurade ani so. Wantwe ne ho amfiri abosonsom a Nebat babarima Yeroboam dii Israel anim ma wɔyɛeɛ no ho.
Laye wenza okubi emehlweni eNkosi, kasukanga ezonweni zonke zikaJerobhowamu indodana kaNebati owenza uIsrayeli one; wahamba kuzo.
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.
Ezinye-ke zezindaba zikaJowashi, lakho konke akwenzayo, lamandla akhe alwa ngawo loAmaziya inkosi yakoJuda, kakubhalwanga yini egwalweni lwemilando yamakhosi akoIsrayeli?
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.
UJowashi waselala laboyise, uJerobhowamu wasehlala esihlalweni sakhe sobukhosi. UJowashi wangcwatshelwa eSamariya lamakhosi akoIsrayeli.
14 Ɛberɛ a yarewuo bɔɔ Elisa no, Israelhene Yehoas kɔsraa no, na ɔsuu no sɛ, “Mʼagya! Mʼagya! Israel nteaseɛnam ne nteaseɛnamkafoɔ!”
UElisha wasegula umkhuhlane wakhe afa ngawo; uJowashi inkosi yakoIsrayeli wasesehlela kuye, wakhala inyembezi phezu kobuso bakhe, wathi: Baba wami! Baba wami! Nqola yakoIsrayeli lamabhiza ayo!
15 Elisa ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Hwehwɛ tadua ne bɛmma.” Na ɔhene no yɛɛ deɛ ɔkaeɛ no.
UElisha wasesithi kuye: Thatha idandili lemitshoko. Wasezithathela idandili lemitshoko.
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.
Wasesithi enkosini yakoIsrayeli: Beka isandla sakho edandilini. Wasesibeka isandla sakhe. UElisha wasebeka izandla zakhe phezu kwezandla zenkosi.
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.
Wasesithi: Vula iwindi ngempumalanga. Yasilivula. UElisha wasesithi: Tshoka! Yasitshoka. Wasesithi: Umtshoko wenkululeko yeNkosi, lomtshoko wenkululeko kuSiriya. Ngoba uzatshaya amaSiriya eAfeki uze uwaqede.
18 Afei, tase bɛmma a aka no na toto wowɔ fam.” Enti, ɔhene no taseeɛ, na ɔtoto wowɔɔ fam mprɛnsa.
Wasesithi: Thatha imitshoko. Yasiyithatha. Wasesithi enkosini yakoIsrayeli: Tshaya emhlabathini. Yasitshaya kathathu, yasisima.
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.”
Umuntu kaNkulunkulu waseyithukuthelela, wathi: Ngabe utshaye kahlanu kumbe kasithupha, ngakho ubuzayitshaya iSiriya uze uyiqede; khathesi-ke uzatshaya iSiriya kathathu kuphela.
20 Elisa wuiɛ, na wɔsiee no. Na Moabfoɔ afomfafoɔ kɔfom asase no so nneɛma afe biara.
UElisha wasesifa, basebemngcwaba. Amaviyo amaMowabi asengena elizweni ekuthwaseni komnyaka.
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!
Kwasekusithi bengcwaba umuntu, khangela-ke, babona iviyo, baphosela lowomuntu engcwabeni likaElisha. Kwathi umuntu esiyathinta amathambo kaElisha waphila, wasukuma wema ngenyawo.
22 Na Aramhene Hasael hyɛɛ Israelfoɔ so ɛberɛ a Ɔhene Yehoahas dii adeɛ no nyinaa.
UHazayeli inkosi yeSiriya wasecindezela uIsrayeli insuku zonke zikaJehowahazi.
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.
INkosi yasisiba lomusa kibo, yaba lesihawu kubo, yaphendukela kibo ngenxa yesivumelwano sayo loAbrahama, uIsaka, loJakobe, kayithandanga ukubabhubhisa, kayibaxotshanga ebusweni bayo kuze kube khathesi.
24 Afei, Aramhene Hasael wuiɛ, na ne babarima Ben-Hadad bɛdii nʼadeɛ sɛ ɔhene.
UHazayeli inkosi yeSiriya wasesifa; uBenihadadi indodana yakhe wasesiba yinkosi esikhundleni sakhe.
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.
UJehowashi indodana kaJehowahazi wasebuya wathatha imizi esandleni sikaBenihadadi indodana kaHazayeli owayeyithethe esandleni sikaJehowahazi uyise ngempi. UJowashi wamtshaya kathathu, waseyibuyisela imizi yakoIsrayeli.
