Sarki ya tsaya dab da ginshiƙi ya kuma sabunta alkawarin a gaban Ubangiji, ya ce zai bi Ubangiji, yă kiyaye dokokinsa, da ƙa’idodinsa, da farillansa, da dukan zuciyarsa da dukan ransa, ta haka ya tabbatar da kalmomin alkawarin da yake a rubuce a cikin littafin nan. Sa’an nan dukan mutane ma suka yi alkawari yin haka.

4 Afei, ɔhene hyɛɛ ɔsɔfopanin Hilkia ne asɔfoɔ akunini ne asɔredan sohwɛfoɔ nyinaa sɛ, wɔnyiyi nneɛma a na wɔde som Baal ne Asera ne ewiem atumfoɔ no nyinaa mfiri Awurade asɔredan no mu. Ɔhene no ma wɔhyee ne nyinaa wɔ Kidron bɔnhwa a ɛwɔ Yerusalem mfikyire no, soaa ne nsõ de kɔɔ Bet-El.

Sai Yosiya ya umarci Hilkiya babban firist, tare da firistocin da suke taimakonsa, da masu tsaron ƙofa su kawar da dukan abubuwan da aka yi domin Ba’al, da domin Ashera, da kuma domin dukan rundunar taurari, daga haikalin Ubangiji. Ya ƙone su a bayan Urushalima a filayen Kwarin Kidron, ya kwashe tokan zuwa Betel.

5 Ɔpamoo abosom akɔmfoɔ a Yuda ahemfo a wɔdii ɛkan no yii wɔn no nyinaa, ɛfiri sɛ, na wɔhye nnuhwam wɔ Yuda abosomfie nyinaa mu a mpo, na ɛreyɛ akɔduru Yerusalem kurom. Wɔhyee nnuhwam maa Baal ne owia, ɔsrane ne nsoromma ne ewiem atumfoɔ.

Ya kawar da firistocin gumakan da sarakunan Yahuda suka naɗa don su ƙona turare a masujadan kan tuddai na garuruwan Yahuda, da kuma waɗanda suke kewaye da Urushalima, masu ƙona turare wa Ba’al, rana da wata, ga rukunin taurari, da kuma ga dukan rundunan taurari.

6 Ɔhene no tuu Asera afɔrebukyia no firii Awurade asɔredan mu, de kɔɔ Yerusalem mfikyire wɔ Kidron bɔnhwa mu hɔ kɔhyee no. Afei, ɔyam dua no muhumuhu, kɔtoo ne mfuturo no guu amusieeɛ.

Ya ɗauke ginshiƙin Ashera daga haikalin Ubangiji zuwa Kwarin Kidron can bayan Urushalima, ya ƙone shi a can. Ya niƙa shi sai da ya zama toka, sai ya watsar da ƙurar a filin kabarin talakawa.

7 Ɔdwirii asɔreeɛ adwamanfoɔ adan a na ɛwɔ Awurade Asɔredan no mu no, baabi a na mmaa no nwono nkatahotam, de kata Asera dua no ho no nyinaa guiɛ.

Ya kuma rurrushe mazaunan karuwai mazan haikali waɗanda suke a haikalin Ubangiji, da kuma inda mata suke yi wa Ashera saƙa.

8 Yosia sane de Awurade asɔfoɔ no a na wɔtete Yuda nkuro afoforɔ so no nyinaa baa Yerusalem. Ɛfiri Geba kɔsi Beer-Seba, ɔsɛee ɛhɔ abosonnan no nyinaa. Saa beaeɛ no na na wɔhye nnuhwam no. Ɔbubuu abosonnan a ɛwɔ Yosua a na ɔyɛ Yerusalem amrado no ɛpono ano. Sɛ obi rewura kuropɔn no mu a ɔbɛhunu saa ɛpono no wɔ kuropɔn ɛpono no benkum so.

Yosiya ya kawo dukan firistoci daga garuruwan Yahuda, ya kuma lalatar da masujadan kan tuddai daga Geba har zuwa Beyersheba, inda firistoci suke ƙona turare. Ya rurrushe matsafai a ƙofofi shigan gari na mashigi zuwa Ƙofar Yoshuwa, gwamnan birnin, wanda yake a hagu da ƙofar birnin.

9 Asɔfoɔ a na wɔsom abosonnan no mu no, na wɔmma wɔn ɛkwan mma wɔnnsom wɔ Awurade afɔrebukyia a ɛwɔ Yerusalem no so, nanso na wɔma wɔne asɔfoɔ a aka no di burodo a mmɔreka nni mu no.

Ko da yake firistocin masujadan kan tuddai ba su yi hidima a bagaden Ubangiji a Urushalima ba, sun ci burodi marar yisti tare da sauran firistoci.

10 Afei, ɔhene no sɛee Tofet afɔrebukyia a na ɛwɔ Ben-Hinom bɔnhwa no mu no enti, na obiara ntumi mfa ne babarima anaa ne babaa mmɔ afɔdeɛ wɔ ogya mu wɔ so sɛ afɔrebɔdeɛ a wɔde ma Molek bio.

Ya lalatar da Tofet, wanda yake a Kwarin Ben Hinnom, don kada kowa yă iya yin amfani da wurin don yă miƙa hadayar ɗansa, ko’yarsa a wuta ga Molek.

11 Ɔtutuu apɔnkɔ sɛso a wɔagu a ɛsisi Awurade Asɔredan ɛkwan no ano a Yuda ahemfo too edin maa owia no nyinaa firii hɔ. Na ne nyinaa wowɔ adihɔ a ɛbɛn opiani bi a wɔfrɛ no Natan-Malek dan ho. Yosia hyee nteaseɛnam a na wɔato edin ama owia no.

Ya kawar da dawakan nan da sarakunan Yahuda suka keɓe wa gumakan nan na rana daga mashigin haikalin Ubangiji. Waɗannan dawakan suna kusa da ɗakin Natan Melek, ɗaya daga cikin dattawan sarki. Yosiya ya kuma ƙone kekunan yaƙi a yin sujada ga gumakan nan rana.

12 Yosia bubuu afɔrebukyia a Yuda ahemfo sisii wɔ ahemfie no atifi wɔ Ahas dan apampam no nyinaa. Ɔhene no bubuu afɔrebukyia a Manase sisii wɔ Awurade Asɔredan no adihɔ mmienu hɔ no nyinaa guiɛ. Ɔdwirii no pasapasa, too ne nkunkumaboɔ no petee Kidron bɔnhwa no mu.

Ya rushe bagadan da sarakunan Yahuda suka kafa a kan ɗakin sama kusa da ɗakin sama na Ahaz, da kuma bagadai biyu da Manasse ya gina a filaye biyu na haikalin Ubangiji. Ya kawar da su daga can, ya farfashe su, ya zubar da tarkacen a Kwarin Kidron.

13 Ɔhene no sane guu abosonnan a ɛwɔ Yerusalem apueeɛ fam no ne deɛ ɛwɔ Ɔsɛeɛ Bepɔ no anafoɔ fam no. Saa beaeɛ no na Israelhene Salomo sisii abosonnan maa Astoret, a ɛyɛ Sidonfoɔ bosom bɔne, ne Kemos, Moabfoɔ bosom bɔne, ne Molek, Amonfoɔ bosom bɔne.

Sarkin kuma ya lalatar da masujadan kan tuddan da suke gabas da Urushalima, kudu da Tudun Hallaka, waɗanda Solomon sarkin Isra’ila ya gina don Ashtarot, ƙazantacciyar alliyar Sidoniyawa, da Kemosh ƙazantaccen allah na Mowab, da kuma Molek allahn banƙyama na mutanen Ammon.

14 Yosia dwerɛɛ afadum kronkron no nyinaa, bubuu Asera afɔrebukyia no. Ɔde nnipa nnompe guguu ne nyinaa so.

Yosiya ya farfashe keɓaɓɓun duwatsu, ya rurrushe ginshiƙan Asheransu, ya baza ƙasusuwan mutane a can.

15 Ɔhene no sane bubuu afɔrebukyia a ɛwɔ Bet-El abosonnan a Nebat babarima Yeroboam yɛeɛ ɛberɛ a ɔdii Israel anim, de wɔn kɔɔ bɔne mu no. Yosia yam aboɔ no, ma ɛdanee mfuturo, hyee Asera dua no.

Har ma da bagaden Betel, masujadan kan tudun da Yerobowam ɗan Nebat ya yi, wanda ya sa Isra’ila suka yi zunubi. Wannan bagade da masujadan kan tudun ma ya kawar, ya ƙone masujadan kan tudun, ya niƙa su, ya kuma ƙone ginshiƙin Ashera.

16 Ɛberɛ a Yosia retoto nʼani no, ɔhunuu damena pii wɔ kokoɔ no nkyɛnmu. Ɔhyɛɛ sɛ wɔntu nnompe no, na ɔhyee ne nyinaa wɔ afɔrebukyia a ɛwɔ Bet-El no so, de guu afɔrebukyia no ho fi. Yei siiɛ sɛdeɛ Awurade nam Onyankopɔn onipa so ahyɛ no, ɛberɛ a Yeroboam kɔgyinaa afɔrebukyia no ho wɔ afahyɛ da no. Afei Yosia danee ne ho hwɛɛ Onyankopɔn onipa a ɔhyɛɛ yeinom nyinaa ho nkɔm no damena.

Da Yosiya ya dubi kewaye da shi, ya ga kaburburan da suke can a gefen tudu, sai ya sa aka kwaso ƙasusuwan da suke cikinsu aka ƙone a kan bagade don yă lalatar da shi bisa ga maganar Ubangiji ta bakin mutumin Allah, wanda ya yi annabcin waɗannan abubuwa.

17 Yosia bisaa sɛ, “Nkaeɛdum bɛn na ɛwɔ nohoa no?” Na nnipa a wɔwɔ kuro no mu ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Ɛyɛ Onyankopɔn onipa no a ɔfiri Yuda a ɔhyɛɛ nkɔm faa dwuma a woadi seesei wɔ afɔrebukyia a ɛwɔ Bet-El ho no ɔboda.”

Sarkin ya yi tambaya, ya ce, “Wane kabari ke nan nake gani?” Mutanen birnin suka ce, “Ai, kabarin annabin Allah ne wanda ya fito daga Yahuda, shi ne ya yi annabcin waɗannan abubuwan da ka aikata gāba da bagaden Betel.”

18 Yosia buaa sɛ, “Momma no nwɔ hɔ. Obiara mmfa ne nsa nka ne nnompe no.” Ɛno enti, wɔanhye ne nnompe no anaa odiyifoɔ akɔkoraa a ɔfiri Samaria no deɛ nso.

Sai ya ce, “Ku rabu da shi, kada wani yă dami ƙasusuwansa.” Saboda haka suka bar kasusuwansa, da na annabin da ya fito Samariya.

19 Na Yosia bubuu abosonnan no a ɛwɔ Samaria no, sɛdeɛ ɔyɛɛ wɔ Bet-El no. Israel ahemfo ahodoɔ bi na wɔsisiiɛ de hyɛɛ Awurade abufuo.

Kamar yadda ya yi a Betel, Yosiya ya kawar da dukan ɗakunan gumaka a kan tuddan da sarakunan Isra’ila suka gina a garuruwan Samariya, waɗanda suka tozarta Ubangiji.

20 Ɔkunkumm asɔreeɛ so abosomfoɔ no wɔ wɔn ankasa afɔrebukyia so, na ɔhyee nnipa nnompe wɔ afɔrebukyia ahodoɔ no so, de guu ho fi. Akyire yi, ɔsane kɔɔ Yerusalem.

Yosiya ya yayyanka dukan firistoci na waɗannan masujadan kan tuddai, ya kuma ƙone ƙasusuwan mutane a kansu. Sa’an nan ya koma Urushalima.

21 Ɔhene Yosia hyɛɛ nnipa no nyinaa sɛ, “Ɛsɛ sɛ modi Twam Afahyɛ ma Awurade, mo Onyankopɔn, sɛdeɛ wɔatwerɛ wɔ Apam Nwoma mu no.”

Sarkin ya ba da umarnin nan ga dukan mutane, cewa, “Ku yi Bikin Ƙetarewa ga Ubangiji Allahnku, yadda aka rubuta a Littafin Alkawari.”

22 Ɛfiri ɛberɛ a atemmufoɔ dii Israel so mfeɛ bebree a atwam wɔ Israel ne Yuda ahemfo so no, wɔnnii Twam Afahyɛ no bi saa da.

Ba a taɓa yin irin Bikin Ƙetarewa haka ba, tun zamanin da masu shari’a suke aiki a matsayin sarakuna, ko a kwanakin sarakunan Isra’ila, ko na Yahuda.

23 Ɛberɛ a ɔhene Yosia dii mfeɛ dunwɔtwe wɔ akonnwa so no na wɔdii saa Twam Afahyɛ yi wɔ Yerusalem maa Awurade.

Amma a shekara ta goma sha takwas ta mulkin sarki Yosiya, aka yi Bikin Ƙetarewan nan ga Ubangiji a Urushalima.

24 Yosia tɔre asamanfrɛfoɔ ne adunsifoɔ ne afie mu anyame ne ahonisom biara ase wɔ Yerusalem ne Yuda asase so baabiara. Ɔyɛɛ saa de dii mmara a wɔatwerɛ wɔ nwoma mmobɔeɛ a ɔsɔfoɔ Hilkia kɔhunuu wɔ Awurade Asɔredan mu no so.

Ban da haka, Yosiya ya kawar da masu duba, da masu maita, da allolin gidaje, da gumaka, da duk wani abin banƙyaman da ya gani a Yahuda da Urushalima. Ya yi wannan domin yă cika wa’adodin shari’a yadda suke a littafin da Hilkiya firist ya samu a haikalin Ubangiji.

25 Ɔhene biara mmaeɛ a ɔte sɛ Yosia a ɔde nʼakoma, ne kra ne nʼahoɔden ama Awurade na ɔnam so adi Mose mmara nyinaa so. Na ɔhene biara nso mmaeɛ a ɔte sɛ ɔno.

Babu wani sarki kafin Yosiya, ko kuma a bayansa, wanda ya juya ga Ubangiji da dukan zuciyarsa, da dukan ransa, da dukan ƙarfinsa bisa ga shari’ar Musa, kamar yadda ya yi.

26 Nanso, yei nyinaa akyi no, Awurade abufuo no dɛre tiaa Yuda, ɛsiane bɔne akɛseɛ a Ɔhene Manase yɛeɛ no. Ɛno enti, wanyi nʼabufuhyeɛ no amfiri wɔn so.

Duk da haka, Ubangiji bai huce daga zafin fushinsa wanda ya ƙuna game da Yahuda saboda abin da Manasse ya aikata don yă tozarta shi ba.

27 Awurade kaa sɛ, “Mɛsɛe Yuda, sɛdeɛ mesɛee Israel no. Mɛpam nnipa no afiri mʼanim, na mapo me kuropɔn Yerusalem ne Asɔredan a anka ɛsɛ sɛ wɔhyɛ me din animuonyam wɔ mu no.”

Saboda haka Ubangiji ya ce, “Zan shafe Yahuda ma kamar yadda na shafe Isra’ila, daga gabana, zan ƙi Urushalima birnin da na zaɓa, da wannan haikali wanda na ce, ‘A can Sunana zai kasance.’”

28 Yosia ahennie ho asɛm nkaeɛ ne dwuma a ɔdiiɛ nyinaa no, wɔatwerɛ agu Yuda Ahemfo Abakɔsɛm Nwoma no mu.

Game da sauran ayyukan mulkin Yosiya, da duk abin da ya yi, duk a rubuce suke a cikin littafin tarihin sarakunan Yahuda.

29 Ɛberɛ a Yosia di ɔhene no, Misraimhene Farao Neko kɔɔ Asubɔnten Eufrate ho kɔboaa Asiriahene. Ɔhene Yosia de nʼakodɔm tuu sa, kɔko tiaa no, nanso ɛberɛ a wɔhyiaa wɔ Megido no, ɔhene Neko kumm no.

Yayinda Yosiya yake sarki, Fir’auna Neko, sarkin Masar ya haura zuwa Kogin Yuferites don yă taimaki sarkin Assuriya da yaƙi. Sarki Yosiya kuwa ya yi ƙoƙari ya hana shi wucewa, sa’ad da Fir’auna Neko ya gan shi, sai ya kashe shi a filin yaƙi a Megiddo.

30 Yosia akodɔm mu mpanimfoɔ no de nʼamu no too teaseɛnam mu firii Megido, baa Yerusalem bɛsiee no ɔno ankasa ɔboda mu. Na nnipa no sraa ne babarima Yehoahas ngo, sii no ɔhene.

Bayin Yosiya suka ɗauko gawarsa daga Megiddo suka kai Urushalima, suka binne shi a kabarinsa. Sai mutanen ƙasar suka ɗauki Yehoyahaz ɗan Yosiya suka naɗa shi sarki a madadin mahaifinsa.

31 Ɛberɛ a Yehoahas dii ɔhene no, na wadi mfeɛ aduonu mmiɛnsa, na ɔdii adeɛ Yerusalem abosome mmiɛnsa. Na ne maame yɛ Yeremia a ɔfiri Libna no babaa a na ne din de Hamutal.

Yehoyahaz yana da shekara ashirin da uku sa’ad da ya zama sarki. Ya yi mulki na wata uku a Urushalima. Sunan mahaifiyarsa Hamutal’yar Irmiya; mutuniyar Libna.

32 Ɔyɛɛ bɔne wɔ Awurade ani so, sɛdeɛ nʼagyanom yɛeɛ no pɛpɛɛpɛ.

Ya aikata mugunta a gaban Ubangiji, yadda kakanninsa suka yi.

33 Farao Neko de Yehoahas too afiase wɔ Ribla wɔ Hamat asase so, sɛdeɛ ɛbɛyɛ a, ɔrentumi nni ɔhene wɔ Yerusalem. Afei, ɔbisaa sɛ Yuda ntua toɔ dwetɛ tɔno mmiɛnsa ne fa ne sikakɔkɔɔ kilogram aduasa ɛnan sɛ apeatoɔ.

Fir’auna Neko ya sa shi a sarƙa a Ribla a ƙasar Hamat don kada yă yi mulki a Urushalima, sa’an nan ya sa wa Yahuda harajin talenti ɗari na azurfa, da talenti ɗaya na zinariya.

34 Afei, Farao Neko de Eliakim a ɔyɛ Yosia babarima, dii adeɛ, ma ɔsii nʼagya ananmu. Ɔsesaa Eliakim din frɛɛ no Yehoiakim. Wɔde Yehoahas kɔɔ Misraim sɛ odeduani, na ɔwuu wɔ hɔ.

Fir’auna Neko ya naɗa Eliyakim ɗan Yosiya sarki a maimakon mahaifinsa, ya kuma canja masa suna zuwa Yehohiyakim. Ya ɗauki Yehoyahaz ya kai Masar, a can ya mutu.

35 Sɛdeɛ ɛbɛyɛ a ɔbɛnya dwetɛ ne sikakɔkɔɔ toɔ a Farao Neko regye no, Yehoiakim gyegyee akwabrantoɔ firii Yudafoɔ nkyɛn. Obiara tuaa sɛdeɛ nʼahonya teɛ.

Yehohiyakim ya riƙa biyan Fir’auna Neko azurfa da zinariyar da ya umarta. Don yă yi haka sai ya riƙa karɓar azurfa da zinariya daga mutanen ƙasar, kowa bisa ga ƙarfinsa.

36 Ɛberɛ a Yehoiakim dii adeɛ no, na wadi mfirinhyia aduonu enum, na ɔdii adeɛ Yerusalem mfeɛ dubaako. Na ne maame din de Sebuda a ɔyɛ Pedaia a ɔfiri Ruma babaa.

Yehohiyakim yana da shekara ashirin da biyar sa’ad da ya zama sarki, ya kuma yi mulki shekara goma sha ɗaya a Urushalima. Sunan mahaifiyarsa Zebuda’yar Fedahiya, mutuniyar Ruma.

37 Ɔyɛɛ bɔne wɔ Awurade ani so, sɛdeɛ nʼagyanom yɛeɛ no.

Ya kuma aika mugunta a gaban Ubangiji yadda kakanninsa suka yi.
