1 Yehoiakim ahennie mu no, Babiloniahene Nebukadnessar bɛto hyɛɛ Yuda asase so. Yehoiakim maa ne nsa so, na ɔtuaa toɔ maa no mfeɛ mmiɛnsa, nanso ɔtee Nebukadnessar so atua.
Mu biro ebyo, Nebukadduneeza kabaka w’e Babulooni n’alumba, era n’afuula Yekoyakimu omuddu we okumala emyaka esatu. Naye Yekoyakimu oluvannyuma n’ajeema, n’akola olutalo ku Nebukadduneeza.
2 Na Awurade somaa akofoɔ firi Babilonia, Aram, Moab ne Amon, kɔko tiaa Yuda, sɛee no, sɛdeɛ Awurade nam nʼadiyifoɔ so hyɛɛ ho nkɔm no.
Awo Mukama n’asindikira Yekoyakimu ebibinja by’Abakaludaaya, n’Abasuuli, n’Abamowaabu, n’Abamoni, n’abatuma okulumba Yuda, ng’ekigambo kya Mukama kye yayogerera mu baweereza be bannabbi bwe kyali.
3 Saa amanehunu yi baa Yuda so, sɛdeɛ Awurade hyɛeɛ no, sɛdeɛ ɛbɛyɛ a ɔbɛyi no afiri nʼanim, ɛsiane bɔne dodoɔ a Manase yɛeɛ no enti.
Era ddala ebyo by’atuukirira ku Yuda ng’ekiragiro kya Mukama bwe kyali, okubaggya mu maaso ge olw’ebibi bya Manase n’ebirala byonna bye yakola,
4 Manase kaa mogya a ɛdi bem guiɛ de hyɛɛ Yerusalem ma, ɛno enti, Awurade amfa yei ankyɛ.
ng’okwo kwe kuli okuyiwa omusaayi ogutaliiko musango. Yajjuza Yerusaalemi n’omusaayi ogutaliiko musango, Mukama kye yali tagenda kusonyiwa.
5 Yehoiakim ahennie ho nsɛm nkaeɛ ne dwuma a ɔdiiɛ nyinaa, wɔatwerɛ agu Yuda Ahemfo Abakɔsɛm Nwoma no mu.
Ebyafaayo ebirala ebyaliwo ku mulembe gwa Yekoyakimu ne byonna bye yakola, tebyawandiikibwa mu kitabo eky’ebyomumirembe gya bassekabaka ba Yuda?
6 Ɛberɛ a Yehoiakim wuiɛ no, ne babarima Yehoiakyin na ɔdii nʼadeɛ sɛ ɔhene.
Awo Yekoyakimu n’afa, mutabani we Yekoyakini n’amusikira okuba kabaka.
7 Na ɛno akyi, Misraimhene ansane amma bio. Na Babiloniahene na ɔfaa asase a anka na Misraimfoɔ no agyeɛ no nyinaa, ɛfiri Misraim asuwa no so, kɔsi Asubɔnten Eufrate ho.
Kabaka w’e Misiri teyava nate mu nsi ye, kubanga kabaka w’e Babulooni yali awambye ebibye byonna okuviira ddala ku mukutu gw’Omugga ogw’e Misiri oguyiwa ku Nnyanja Ennene okutuuka ku Mugga Fulaati.
8 Ɛberɛ a Yehoiakyin dii adeɛ no, na wadi mfeɛ dunwɔtwe, na ɔdii ɔhene Yerusalem abosome mmiɛnsa. Na ne maame yɛ Elnatan a ɔfiri Yerusalem no babaa Nehusta.
Yekoyakini we yafuukira kabaka yalina emyaka kkumi na munaana, era n’afugira mu Yerusaalemi okumala emyezi esatu. Nnyina erinnya lye yali Nekusita muwala wa Erunasani ow’e Yerusaalemi.
9 Yehoiakyin yɛɛ bɔne wɔ Awurade ani so, sɛdeɛ nʼagya yɛeɛ no ara pɛ.
N’akola ebibi mu maaso ga Mukama, nga kitaawe bwe yakola.
10 Yehoiakyin ahennie mu no, Babiloniahene Nebukadnessar akodɔm mu mpanimfoɔ bɛtuaa Yerusalem.
Mu biro ebyo eggye lya Nebukadduneeza kabaka w’e Babulooni ne lirumba ekibuga ky’e Yerusaalemi, ne kizingizibwa.
11 Ɔtua no mu, Nebukadnessar ankasa baa kuropɔn no mu.
Nebukadduneeza yennyini n’ajja mu kibuga, ng’eggye lye likyakizingizza.
12 Na ɔhene Yehoiakyin ne nʼafotufoɔ, atitire, mpanimfoɔ ne ɔhemmaa de wɔn ho maa Babiloniafoɔ. Nebukadnessar dii adeɛ ne mfeɛ nwɔtwe so no, ɔkyeree Yehoiakyin, de no too afiase.
Awo Yekoyakini kabaka wa Yuda, ne nnyina, n’abaddu ba kabaka, n’abakungu be, n’abaami be bonna ne beewaayo eri kabaka w’e Babulooni mu mwaka gwe ogw’omunaana bukya alya bwakabaka, era Yekoyakini n’atwalibwa nga musibe.
13 Sɛdeɛ Awurade aka dada no, Nebukadnessar tasee agyapadeɛ a ɛwɔ Awurade Asɔredan mu hɔ no ne ahemfie hɔ nyinaa. Wɔsɛee sikakɔkɔɔ akoradeɛ a Israelhene Salomo de sisii asɔredan mu hɔ no nyinaa.
Era mu kiseera kye kimu, Nebukadduneeza n’atwala eby’obugagga byonna okuva mu yeekaalu ya Mukama, n’okuva mu lubiri lwa kabaka, era n’atemaatema ebibya byonna ebya zaabu, Sulemaani kabaka wa Isirayiri bye yali akoze ng’abitadde mu yeekaalu ya Mukama, nga Mukama bwe yalagira.
14 Ɔhene Nebukadnessar kyekyeree nneduafoɔ ɔpedu firii Yerusalem a ahenemma nyinaa ne asraafoɔ akodifoɔ, adwumfoɔ ne atomfoɔ a wɔdi mu ka ho. Ɛno enti, ahiafoɔ nko ara na ɔgyaa wɔn wɔ asase no so.
N’atwala Yerusaalemi kyonna, n’abakungu bonna, n’abasajja abalwanyi bonna, ne baffundi bonna n’abaweesi bonna mu buwaŋŋanguse, awamu ne bawera abantu ng’omutwalo gumu. Abasemberayo ddala obwavu be yalekamu bokka.
15 Nebukadnessar faa ɔhene Yehoiakyin de no kɔɔ Babilonia sɛ odeduani a ne yerenom ne ne mpanimfoɔ, ɔhemmaa ne Yerusalem nnipa atitire ka ho.
Nebukadduneeza n’atwala Yekoyakini e Babulooni nga musibe okuva mu Yerusaalemi, era n’atwala ne nnyina, ne bakyala ba kabaka, n’abakungu be, n’abaami abaali ab’ekitiibwa mu nsi.
16 Afei, ɔfaa akofoɔ a wɔte apɔ no mpem nson, adwumfoɔ ne atomfoɔ apem a wɔn nyinaa yɛ mmarima a wɔn ho yɛ den na wɔfata akodie.
Ate era yawamba abasajja ab’amaanyi kasanvu, ne baffundi n’abaweesi lukumi, bonna n’abatwala e Babulooni nga basibe.
17 Afei, Babiloniahene de Yehoiakyin wɔfa Matania dii adeɛ sɛ ɔhene foforɔ. Ɔsesaa Matania din frɛɛ no Sedekia.
Nebukadduneeza n’addira Mataniya kitaawe wa Yekoyakini omuto, n’amufuula kabaka, era n’amukyusa n’erinnya n’amutuuma Zeddekiya.
18 Ɛberɛ a Sedekia dii adeɛ no, na wadi mfirinhyia aduonu baako. Ɔdii adeɛ wɔ Yerusalem mfirinhyia dubaako. Na ne maame din de Hamutal a ɔyɛ Yeremia a ɔfiri Libna no babaa.
Zeddekiya we yafuukira kabaka yalina emyaka amakumi abiri mu gumu, era n’afugira mu Yerusaalemi emyaka kkumi na gumu. Nnyina erinnya lye yali Kamutali muwala wa Yeremiya ow’e Libuna.
19 Na Sedekia yɛɛ bɔne wɔ Awurade ani so, sɛdeɛ Yehoiakim yɛeɛ no.
N’akola ebibi mu maaso ga Mukama, nga Yekoyakini bwe yakola.
20 Ɛno enti, Awurade abufuo enti na yeinom nyinaa baa Yerusalem ne Yuda so, na akyire yi, ɔyii nʼani firii wɔn so. Afei, Sedekia sɔre tiaa Babiloniahene.
Ebyo byonna ebyatuuka ku Yerusaalemi ne ku Yuda, byabaawo olw’obusungu bwa Mukama obwababubuukirako, era n’oluvannyuma n’abagoba mu maaso ge. Naye oluvannyuma Zeddekiya y’ajeemera kabaka w’e Babulooni.
